The inspectors, marshals and police work harmoniously. Thus far no dis turbances occurred. 7:30 P.M.

Second ward Hoffman, 197 ; Woodford, 99. Third ward Hoffman, 424 ; Woodford, 169. These figures indicate a total vote of perhaps 110,000, and a majority for Hoffman of over 40,000.

In the Third Congressional district (Brooklyn), General Slocnm (Democrat) seems to be elected over Webster and Whitincr ( Republicans). Thomas Kin- sella (Democrat) is elected in the Second (Brooklyn) district. John H. Ketcham (Republican) is probably chosen in the Twelfth district. Eiirhtv-nine districts from various parts of the State outside of the city, thus far heard from, give a Democratic gain of 2,'JC8 as compared with the Presidential vote of 1868, when Seymour had 10,000 majority. - --10:30 P.

The Democrats did not vote their strength by 200. There was no party organization of Democrats, and the election went by default.

Hardly any interest was manifested on account of the general feeling that the Democrats had a Farim majority. The vote polled was very small. Winchester (Dem.) carries the city by 1,500 or 2,000 majority over Speed (Rep.) Winchester's majority in the district will be in the neighborhood of 4,000. Returns from different parts of the State show great apathy on the part of voters, many persons seemingly not ue-ing aware of the election. The Democrats have certainly elected their Conirressional candidates in all the districts bnt the Eiehth. The result in this dis trict is doubtful, bnt it is thought Adams. Democrat, will be elected by a small majority. Speed (Republican) carried the Fourth and Fifth wards of this city. " Winches ter carried the other eight.

The latest balloon from Paris brings a number of the Figaro of the 4th instant, containing a letter from Flourens filling two columns, and giving a description of the events of the 31st of October. The arrest of mem bers of the Provisional Government, he says, was not terminated by force, but by an agreement concluded between Dorian and Schrelcher on one side, and representatives of the Government on the other, subsequently ratified by Thiers and Flourens. The agreement was that the elections for commune should take place on Tuesday, under the direction of Dorian and Schrelcher, and the election for a new government on Wednesday. To avoid bloodshed and prove lo our friends and the partisans of the Government that we were of one mind, we agreed to leave the Hotel de Title together. On our side the agreement was completely fulfilled. The members of the Government in our custody were released, and we quited the Hotel de Ville in their company. The next morning all these sacred pledges were violated. The commune elections were postponed or abandoned, and there will be no levy en tnnsse. The letter con cludes : '-Do you then wish fo r civil war to repeat at Paris the disaster of Sedan and Meta V, ? A Paris journal of the 3d publishes a semi-official statement of the reasons for Rochefort's retirement from the Government, the first being the failure to hold commune elections, and second, the Gov ernment's consent of the armistice nego tiations. Rochefort is equally alienated from the Flourens party. Favre, Trochu and five other members of the Govern ment wrote to Rochefort, asking him to retnrn, but he refused. He intends to begin the publication of a newspaper. BOMBARDMENT POSTPONED. London, November 8. Metz bas been made the capital of the German Lorraine The Times has reason to believe the bombardment of Paris will not begin for two weeks. King William is reluctant to destroy so grand a city, and is giving the French every opportunity to negoti ate for peace. It is said Baron Hanssman lias been arrested. PRUSSIAN MILITARY MOVEMENTS. Versailles, November 8. General Truskow reported to the Prussian head quarters here yesterday that his division had repulsed the Frano-tireurs in several engagements, on the 20th inst., between Colmar and Belfort. He reports also the occurrence of several skirmishes at Rougemont and Petit Magny between the Prussians and Guard Mobile, in which the French lost five officers and one hundred and three men. The French fortress Belfort was invested on "Thurs day. Communication with Gen. Werder has been re-established. BISMARCK'S STORY OK THE ARMISTICE. London, November 8. Bismarck has furnished the following explanation of the rupture of negotiations for an armistice : The French Government, having declined through its representative, M. Thiers, its ability to accept the German offer of armistice, on the basis of itatu jno, the Count proposed that the French name a time for holding elections for the Constituent Assembly. The Germans promised that in such event absolute freedom of elections should be respected even in territory now occupied by Prussians. M. Thiers thereupon withdrew to the outposts to consult Favre, bnt at length returned to Versailles without power to accept the German terms. King William has issued an order that no person will hereafter be allowed to enter 'or leave Paris. Five passengers have just been captured and will be court-martialed for violation of the order. DISORDERS AND KIOTS IN TIIK SOCTH OK FRANCE. London, November 8. A correspond ent of the World, writing from Per- pignan on the 4th inst., says: Civil wa has commenced here with frightful scenes. . The Colonel commanding: here waa assailed by bands of Reds and cut down. The Chief of Gen d'Armes un derwent the same fate. M. de Bordas. Mayor, was stoned to death before bis own house. I never witnessed a sight so horrible. Another gentleman was pursued by the mob and killed with butchers' hammers. The National Guard are now assembling to quell the mob. AU houses and shops are closed. General Banal who commanded the artillery at Stras burg, was arrested at Grenable on charge of treason against the Republic The mob assembled before the General' hotel, crying out, " We are the sovereign l people down with the servants of the Empire." Itjwas with 'great difficulty that Banal was rescued from the hands of the mob and conveyed to the prison of St Joseph. Baron Hanssman, ex-Prefect of Paris, waa arrested at his villa at Nice: The Journal let Droits del Homme, pub lished at Montpelier, sets a priceon Ba-zainss and Napoleon's beads, and has opened a subscription to pay for their aination. The World's correspondent telegraphs th 4th instant that the Bank of France had issued 35 frane notes to the amount of (,325,000 francs since the siege. It has a reserve of 237,000 notes of 25 francs each, only requiring to be numbered, and 150,000 new notes will be issued. The bank is able to issue, dally, ten thousand notes of 25 francs, twelve thousand notes of 50 francs, and six thousand of 100 francs. The director of Jardin des Plautes, in Pari, has sold the .animals to butchers, the buffalo bringing high prices. Oa October 31 M. Thiers' hotel was surrounded by a crowd of Reds, crying, Down with Thiers!" "Down with the traitor! :' " Down with the dupe !" London, November 810 P. M. Ver- un bas capitulated to the Pjussians. A RF.rn.SE fob THE PRUSSIANS. A dispatch from Tours dated at nine this forenoon, says last night a Prussian column with two batteries and fifteen hundred cavalry attacked the outposts of the army of the Loire at Paisly and Laurent des Bois. The French were re inforced, and drove them beyond Val- liere. The Prussians left their dead and wounded on the field, and we took sixty- four prisoners. Oar loss was four killed and thirty-one wounded. r HO FAVORED AND OPPOSED AN ARMIS TICE. London, November 8. Private ad vices from Versailles confirm the account given by Bismarck in regard to the sus pension of negotiations for an armistice. Jules Favre, with a majority of , his col leagues, . favored the scheme for 'the election of members to the Constituent Assembly, and nrged the acceptance of armistice as negotiated by M. Thiers, bnt General Trochn dissented and car ried bis point. PB188IA. BERLIN OPINION ON THE FAILURE OK NE GOTIATIONS. Berlin, November 8. All the Berlin newspapers, official and otherwise, throw the responsibility of the impending destruction of Paris on the French. The latter have thus far refused to recognize plain facts. APPREHENSIVE OF FRENCH NAVT. Berlin, November 8. The Prussian Government, which recently gave orders for the restoration of lights and buoys at the month of the Elbe, has counter manded those orders, and work is con sequently suspended. TERRIBLE PICTURE OF TIIK CONDITION OF PRUSSL. London, Aorember 8. A number of letters from the World correspondents were received to-day, from which we ex tract the following: Fearful distress and discontent prevail in Germany, growing out of the prolongation of the war, of which the journals dare not sneak, be cause no mercy is shown by this military government. The whole country is morally and materially in the most deplorable condition, and it is donbtful how long publio indignation can be restrained by military discipline. Everywhere there is desolation, and tens of thousands are in mourning. Prus sia may yet greatly injure France, but she is so exhausted she cannot conquer her. King William must go on nnder the same conditions as did the Emperor after the battles of the 14th, 16th, and 18th of August, when he dared not return to Paris without achieving success to efface previous disaster. King William also seeks success before daring to retnrn to Berlin; otherwise the Prussian power will ollapse like the dream." of the Emperor. ITALY. , THIERS WRITES A LETTER TO THE TOPE. Florence, November 8. M. Thiers has written a letter to the Pope assur ing him the great powers will consider his case at the coming Congress. A posi tion worthy of God's vice regent will be provided him. The King will officially enter Rome after the National elections. Preparations are actively making in all the provinces for the election on the 30th inst. ROME NOT TO Btt THE CAITfAL 1'i THE POPE DIES. Fi.orf.nce, November 8. Siguor Bro- glie, chairman of the special committee on the subject, has made a report to the Senate, recommending that Rome be not made the capital of Italy until after the decease of the present Pope. A BRIEF ADDRESS FROK THE POPE. Rome, November 8. The grand festival of San Carlo to-day fell flat, like that oi All-Saints-Day last Tuesday. The splendid ceremonies customary on such days were omitted. The Pope celebrated mass and addressed a few words to the congrega tion, assuring them at tbe conclusion of his allocution, that the present order of things will soon come to an end, and New Year be signalized by the triumph of the Apostolic cause. Very large amounts of money are reaching the Holy Father. AUSTRIA. AN OPINION OF FRENCH STUBBORNNESS. Vienna, November 8. The Correspond ent asserts that the French Government acts as if it were unconscious of defeat, Its tone and manner are the same as they would have been if the French army had been victorious and were now before the eity of Berlin.

Its mai provisions are as follows : "First No person who has registered his name is to be prevented by arrest from Toting, after being challenged. questioned and cautioned, if he persists I in taking tbe statutory oath, unless one of the Inspectors knows he is not entitled to vote. After voting any elector may be arrested for any offense against tne law. - ' 7 - "Second The United States Saner- visors are to be present from the opening of the polls nntil the completion of th canvass, and to hava full opportunity to witness the canvass, and to attach to every certificate of the result of the can vass any statement they may desire; and they are not to be arrested before the completion of the whole canvass for any alleged ottense, nor tnen except npon process. Third lue inspectors of Elections are to bo protected from the opening of the polls nntil tne completion ot tne can vass, and not to be arrested before the completion of the entire canvass, for any lleged oriijnse, nor then except npon pro cess. ' "Fourth The United States Deputy Marshals and tbe members of the police force are to co-operate in good laitli in preservintt order and in giving effect to the above expressed instructions. " Fifth If, in tbe opinion of any Supervisor or Inspector of Elections, any Deputy Marshal or polioeman at the polls shall fail to carry out, in good faith, tbe above understanding, he shall immediately cause tbe fact to be reported to the United btates Marsual, il (lie complaint be made against a Deputy Marshal, and the Superintendent of Police, if the com plaint be against a policeman,'' I signed:!

Stonghton, of connsel; A. Cashing, of counsel." The World of this morniUEhizhly com mends the appointment of Caleb Gushing as special .Deputy District Attorney, and attributes this action of the Administration to the influence of Secretary Fish, and adds : "It will be seen that the Federal Government has withdrawn its menaces; that there is to be so military intimidation at the polls ; that there are to be no arrests of persons in the act of voting ; and that there is to be no display of Federal troops in our streets. There is a falling back along the whole line. HKFORE THE ELECTION, In Brooklyn to-day there will bo two hundred and fifty policemen and one thousand United States Deputy Marshals on dnty at the polls. Bnt little trouble is anticipated. A Washington dispatch says tbe last order for bayonets was issued yesterday, for the voters of the Buffalo district, the commanding officers of Foit Erio being instructed to respond to the call of the Federal civil authorities of Buffalo. The complement of soldiers and marines thus far brought into service for to-day at New York, Baltimore, Richmond, Buffalo, Norfolk and other places will reach six thousand armed men. the west: latacr Kailraaa1 Kabbery Aaalra- lian Steamship i.ine Revuian af Army Tactica Dcatrwetive Fire.

The Secretary of "War was closeted with the President for a long time yes terday, issuing final orders to the com manders of the troops in and around New York, preparatory to any service they may be called npon to perform to day. AU news from . JSew lork, tbe President says, indicates a quiet election whioli be hopes may be true. A STRONG EFFORT. A strong effort ou the part of Western politicians is still being made to secure the appointment of General R. B. Cowan of Ohio, as commissioner 01 inter Revenue. GRANT AND HANCOCK. General Hancock bas had frequent calls since his arrival here, regarding his so-called quarrel with the the President, bnt ii has refused to give expression to his views of political affairs. He does not hesitate, however, to say that in the state-memta widely printed he bas been crossly misrepresented. His respect for the Chief Magistrate of the nation', as well as the duty which, as a soldier, he owes to his superiors, induoed him, directly after his arrival, to call on General Sherman, and, ia company with that officer, he paid his respects to General Grant. Both visits were entirely formal, however, and the subject ot their differences was not alluded to. It is not impossible that at some not far distant day he may make pnblio copies of a correspondence which passed between him and General Sherman, incidental to his detail for dnty on the Retiring Board here. It is understood that the correspondence embraces all the points of defense that the General desires to make, and, in the opinion of his friends, it will clear him from any and all of the allegations of disrespect toward the President which hare been made against him. TOE SPIRITUALISTS AND THE INDIANS. Representatives of the Society of Spiritualists have made statements to the effect that this element in the religion of the country considered ; itnelf badly treated by the Administration, on account of not having a voice in the choice of Indian agents together with the other denominations chosen by the President in the prosecution of his Indian peace policy. They claim also that the fact of nine-tenths of them being nltra Radicals should have some weight m securing for them some consideration in the arrangement of the Indian- welfare.

The Caviare af Orleans Spieadia fcal Uwlr Valar mt Its Defender. THE CAPTURE OF ORLEANS.' A correspondent of the New York World, writing from Blois, on the 13th nit, says : 1 . ' - , .- Orleans is taken, but it has been lost by one of those defeats which are worth a victory. The fight of Tuesday, the 11th of Octoler, has proved to all the world, and, what is more important at the present moment, to all France, that the late disasters and sore discouragements, political and military, have not tainted, the pluck of the nation. I have now wit nessed several engagements, and I (do not hesitate to say that this battle of Orleans has been incomparably the most brilliant feat of arms performed on either side during the war. -' The battle was lost through want of organization. Its loss was more than redeemed, in a moral sense, by the splendid bravery of the French troops. Artillery was wanting to the French, and when it arrived there was not time to get it in working order before the Prussians came up. The writer continues : For all or any of these things to be of the slightest use to ns they mnst lie sort ed and rearranged, and that was a half day's labor lor a competent statt. it tne Prussians would only give us five honrs ! But alas! by 7 o'clock in the morning of the same Tuesday, the 11th of Octo ber, they had already taken their breakfasts and set to work, falling an avalanche of men and a hail of balls on that devoted remnaut in the wood. They bad swept the wood clear after a bloody hgut, Thev had rushed forward in hot haste and seized on Mont Joie. Mont Joie is a high plateau, visible from Orleans, and as Are turned out ot tne station to ssk what was to be done next, we had only to lift our eyes to this eminence to see the Prussians preparing to give ns an answer from the throats ot eighty guns. It was too late to talk of getting ready now. There was nothing for it bnt to evacuate tbe town ; for to bave advanced without artillery to the capture of -that height would have been to rush on to an irreparable disaster. Orleans could not be saved, bnt there was still time to save the arms: Keyan's torce Had joined ours in good order, and though I have spoken of Mont Joie as commanding, it was, properly speaking, only near enough to sween the suburbs immediately beyond it. inese suourDS were iu possestuou 01 the French Pontifical Zouaves, the r or- eign Legion, and another French corps, of which I forget the name. So long as they could hold them, and notably the Faubourg Banien, the Prussians would be nnable to nee their artillery against the town, and the army could Wltndraw at lis leisure, a meoacuwi was sent forward to these troops, and he brought back word from their com mander, Arago, that it we were all ready we might stay and play a game of billiards, and they would answer for the enemy not disturbing us till it was up. 'Only, if tney do piay, ' auaea poor Ara go, Witn a true rrenenman s gayeiy iu danger, "tell them to make as many double coups as they can." Yon may be sure we did not hesitate to' forego the pleasure of the game. At ten o'clock we commenced moving out of town, amid a dead silence, for the guard holding the r , 1 : i .11 nrv- 0 nno iaUDOUrifS. 11UU1W1UI1L U U Ur W,VW men, were simply waiting in presence of tbe immense host before tnein, and tne Prussians bad not yet thought proper to beo-in. I sicken to tell of what followed, and yet 1 glory to nave tne privilege 01 tellinc it. la auout nan an nour irom the commencement of our march, and when the advance had barely got clear of the town, a loud roar of artillery from Mont Joie shook earth and air, and the rirtt shower of an iron storm that was to beat nnceasingly for over eight honrs fell on the devoted guard at Banien. Idle to attempt to go back to help them; idle to plan anything, do anything, but march on away from them with what speed we may. uar nanus were attempting to hearten as np with merry tunes when this infernal accom paniment first broke on oar ear, aud made our music seem bnt a devil's jig playing our comrades to their doom. A deep growl runs through the ranks. "Stop, or niaKe it a ueau marcii, cry a dozen voices, and without sign from tambour major the drummers cease. Tramp, tramp, tramp, goes forward to safety the Army of Loire. "The army of Ther-niopyhe" may not hear the sound of its own marching, since it cannot go for ward and will not so oacK, so it stands still and waits for death. Plan of the battle of tue lauuourcs, Dy which our retreat was covered, there is none to give. There were no "movements," properly so called, on the French side, and no movements were necessi tated on tue otner. ine rmssians sun-' ply fired nntil they judged that the breaches in the living fortress warranted an assanlt, and then they dashed at them with cavalry and infantry, only to be driven baok in ruin by the Chassepot. The failure of repeated attempts of this kind at length taught them to rely exclusively on their artillery, aud with the immediate danger of an assault in the open removed, the French were enabled to withdraw to the partial shelter of Banien aud the Gare des Autrais, the principal places to be held. Banien was assigned to the Foreign Legion, composed mainly of young men of pleasure from Paris, not a few of tbem Americans, and Autrais to the French Pontificals, who, though they had shown fair fight at Home, had still, like their comrades, their military spurs t win. Tbe point of honor between the two coips was which should surrender last, or to put it differently, since each had the certainty of death before it, which should raise tne last snout ot de fiance to the foe. Neither won, it was a dead heat to glory. Of 1,500 of the For- eign legion m came back to moia, and-of 370 Zouaves but 17 left the field alive. ine shelter the men had found, though it saved their lives for tbe moment, did but prolong their agony; and it mnst have proved far severer test to their fortitude than even the- the stand in th open, where death came too swiftly to permit them to reflect on it terrors. . Those in . the railway station sought the shelter of the tracks and the waiting rooms; those in the faubourg hid themselves in the ., cellars of the nouses, ready to spring ' forth ' the moment an enemy could be found to face them. They lay thus, and perished slowly one by one. The Pros-- ; sianshad got the range of the railway , station and the range of the faubourg,-and every half minute or so a shell oaraa-- - wwuiuk WUVUglt T. mil VI lUVl, wi its debris buried a man. The Legionaries, for the most part, bore their fate with a calm, despairing fortitude; the Pontifical showed less patience, and ever and anon some dust beirrimed wretch, mad with fary and blind with his own blood, dash! forth to shriek and shake his list toward the pitiless cannon till a new discharge swept him into eternity.

The latest balloon from Paris brings a number of the Figaro of the 4th instant, containing a letter from Flourens filling two columns, and giving a description of the events of the 31st of October. The arrest of mem bers of the Provisional Government, he says, was not terminated by force, but by an agreement concluded between Dorian and Schrelcher on one side, and representatives of the Government on the other, subsequently ratified by Thiers and Flourens. The agreement was that the elections for commune should take place on Tuesday, under the direction of Dorian and Schrelcher, and the election for a new government on Wednesday. To avoid bloodshed and prove lo our friends and the partisans of the Government that we were of one mind, we agreed to leave the Hotel de Title together. On our side the agreement was completely fulfilled. The members of the Government in our custody were released, and we quited the Hotel de Ville in their company. The next morning all these sacred pledges were violated. The commune elections were postponed or abandoned, and there will be no levy en tnnsse. The letter con cludes : '-Do you then wish fo r civil war to repeat at Paris the disaster of Sedan and Meta V, ? A Paris journal of the 3d publishes a semi-official statement of the reasons for Rochefort's retirement from the Government, the first being the failure to hold commune elections, and second, the Gov ernment's consent of the armistice nego tiations. Rochefort is equally alienated from the Flourens party. Favre, Trochu and five other members of the Govern ment wrote to Rochefort, asking him to retnrn, but he refused. He intends to begin the publication of a newspaper. BOMBARDMENT POSTPONED. London, November 8. Metz bas been made the capital of the German Lorraine The Times has reason to believe the bombardment of Paris will not begin for two weeks. King William is reluctant to destroy so grand a city, and is giving the French every opportunity to negoti ate for peace. It is said Baron Hanssman lias been arrested. PRUSSIAN MILITARY MOVEMENTS. Versailles, November 8. General Truskow reported to the Prussian head quarters here yesterday that his division had repulsed the Frano-tireurs in several engagements, on the 20th inst., between Colmar and Belfort. He reports also the occurrence of several skirmishes at Rougemont and Petit Magny between the Prussians and Guard Mobile, in which the French lost five officers and one hundred and three men. The French fortress Belfort was invested on "Thurs day. Communication with Gen. Werder has been re-established. BISMARCK'S STORY OK THE ARMISTICE. London, November 8. Bismarck has furnished the following explanation of the rupture of negotiations for an armistice : The French Government, having declined through its representative, M. Thiers, its ability to accept the German offer of armistice, on the basis of itatu jno, the Count proposed that the French name a time for holding elections for the Constituent Assembly. The Germans promised that in such event absolute freedom of elections should be respected even in territory now occupied by Prussians. M. Thiers thereupon withdrew to the outposts to consult Favre, bnt at length returned to Versailles without power to accept the German terms. King William has issued an order that no person will hereafter be allowed to enter 'or leave Paris. Five passengers have just been captured and will be court-martialed for violation of the order. DISORDERS AND KIOTS IN TIIK SOCTH OK FRANCE. London, November 8. A correspond ent of the World, writing from Per- pignan on the 4th inst., says: Civil wa has commenced here with frightful scenes. . The Colonel commanding: here waa assailed by bands of Reds and cut down. The Chief of Gen d'Armes un derwent the same fate. M. de Bordas. Mayor, was stoned to death before bis own house. I never witnessed a sight so horrible. Another gentleman was pursued by the mob and killed with butchers' hammers. The National Guard are now assembling to quell the mob. AU houses and shops are closed. General Banal who commanded the artillery at Stras burg, was arrested at Grenable on charge of treason against the Republic The mob assembled before the General' hotel, crying out, " We are the sovereign l people down with the servants of the Empire." Itjwas with 'great difficulty that Banal was rescued from the hands of the mob and conveyed to the prison of St Joseph. Baron Hanssman, ex-Prefect of Paris, waa arrested at his villa at Nice: The Journal let Droits del Homme, pub lished at Montpelier, sets a priceon Ba-zainss and Napoleon's beads, and has opened a subscription to pay for their aination. The World's correspondent telegraphs th 4th instant that the Bank of France had issued 35 frane notes to the amount of (,325,000 francs since the siege. It has a reserve of 237,000 notes of 25 francs each, only requiring to be numbered, and 150,000 new notes will be issued. The bank is able to issue, dally, ten thousand notes of 25 francs, twelve thousand notes of 50 francs, and six thousand of 100 francs. The director of Jardin des Plautes, in Pari, has sold the .animals to butchers, the buffalo bringing high prices. Oa October 31 M. Thiers' hotel was surrounded by a crowd of Reds, crying, Down with Thiers!" "Down with the traitor! :' " Down with the dupe !" London, November 810 P. M. Ver- un bas capitulated to the Pjussians. A RF.rn.SE fob THE PRUSSIANS. A dispatch from Tours dated at nine this forenoon, says last night a Prussian column with two batteries and fifteen hundred cavalry attacked the outposts of the army of the Loire at Paisly and Laurent des Bois. The French were re inforced, and drove them beyond Val- liere. The Prussians left their dead and wounded on the field, and we took sixty- four prisoners. Oar loss was four killed and thirty-one wounded. r HO FAVORED AND OPPOSED AN ARMIS TICE. London, November 8. Private ad vices from Versailles confirm the account given by Bismarck in regard to the sus pension of negotiations for an armistice. Jules Favre, with a majority of , his col leagues, . favored the scheme for 'the election of members to the Constituent Assembly, and nrged the acceptance of armistice as negotiated by M. Thiers, bnt General Trochn dissented and car ried bis point. PB188IA. BERLIN OPINION ON THE FAILURE OK NE GOTIATIONS. Berlin, November 8.

APPREHENSIVE OF FRENCH NAVT. Berlin, November 8. The Prussian Government, which recently gave orders for the restoration of lights and buoys at the month of the Elbe, has counter manded those orders, and work is con sequently suspended. TERRIBLE PICTURE OF TIIK CONDITION OF PRUSSL. London, Aorember 8. A number of letters from the World correspondents were received to-day, from which we ex tract the following: Fearful distress and discontent prevail in Germany, growing out of the prolongation of the war, of which the journals dare not sneak, be cause no mercy is shown by this military government. The whole country is morally and materially in the most deplorable condition, and it is donbtful how long publio indignation can be restrained by military discipline. Everywhere there is desolation, and tens of thousands are in mourning. Prus sia may yet greatly injure France, but she is so exhausted she cannot conquer her. King William must go on nnder the same conditions as did the Emperor after the battles of the 14th, 16th, and 18th of August, when he dared not return to Paris without achieving success to efface previous disaster. King William also seeks success before daring to retnrn to Berlin; otherwise the Prussian power will ollapse like the dream." of the Emperor. ITALY. , THIERS WRITES A LETTER TO THE TOPE.

The World of this morniUEhizhly com mends the appointment of Caleb Gushing as special .Deputy District Attorney, and attributes this action of the Administration to the influence of Secretary Fish, and adds : "It will be seen that the Federal Government has withdrawn its menaces; that there is to be so military intimidation at the polls ; that there are to be no arrests of persons in the act of voting ; and that there is to be no display of Federal troops in our streets. There is a falling back along the whole line.

General Hancock bas had frequent calls since his arrival here, regarding his so-called quarrel with the the President, bnt ii has refused to give expression to his views of political affairs. He does not hesitate, however, to say that in the state-memta widely printed he bas been crossly misrepresented. His respect for the Chief Magistrate of the nation', as well as the duty which, as a soldier, he owes to his superiors, induoed him, directly after his arrival, to call on General Sherman, and, ia company with that officer, he paid his respects to General Grant. Both visits were entirely formal, however, and the subject ot their differences was not alluded to. It is not impossible that at some not far distant day he may make pnblio copies of a correspondence which passed between him and General Sherman, incidental to his detail for dnty on the Retiring Board here. It is understood that the correspondence embraces all the points of defense that the General desires to make, and, in the opinion of his friends, it will clear him from any and all of the allegations of disrespect toward the President which hare been made against him.

Representatives of the Society of Spiritualists have made statements to the effect that this element in the religion of the country considered ; itnelf badly treated by the Administration, on account of not having a voice in the choice of Indian agents together with the other denominations chosen by the President in the prosecution of his Indian peace policy.

The Caviare af Orleans Spieadia fcal Uwlr Valar mt Its Defender. THE CAPTURE OF ORLEANS.' A correspondent of the New York World, writing from Blois, on the 13th nit, says : 1 . ' - , .- Orleans is taken, but it has been lost by one of those defeats which are worth a victory. The fight of Tuesday, the 11th of Octoler, has proved to all the world, and, what is more important at the present moment, to all France, that the late disasters and sore discouragements, political and military, have not tainted, the pluck of the nation. I have now wit nessed several engagements, and I (do not hesitate to say that this battle of Orleans has been incomparably the most brilliant feat of arms performed on either side during the war. -' The battle was lost through want of organization. Its loss was more than redeemed, in a moral sense, by the splendid bravery of the French troops. Artillery was wanting to the French, and when it arrived there was not time to get it in working order before the Prussians came up. The writer continues : For all or any of these things to be of the slightest use to ns they mnst lie sort ed and rearranged, and that was a half day's labor lor a competent statt. it tne Prussians would only give us five honrs ! But alas! by 7 o'clock in the morning of the same Tuesday, the 11th of Octo ber, they had already taken their breakfasts and set to work, falling an avalanche of men and a hail of balls on that devoted remnaut in the wood. They bad swept the wood clear after a bloody hgut, Thev had rushed forward in hot haste and seized on Mont Joie. Mont Joie is a high plateau, visible from Orleans, and as Are turned out ot tne station to ssk what was to be done next, we had only to lift our eyes to this eminence to see the Prussians preparing to give ns an answer from the throats ot eighty guns. It was too late to talk of getting ready now. There was nothing for it bnt to evacuate tbe town ; for to bave advanced without artillery to the capture of -that height would have been to rush on to an irreparable disaster. Orleans could not be saved, bnt there was still time to save the arms: Keyan's torce Had joined ours in good order, and though I have spoken of Mont Joie as commanding, it was, properly speaking, only near enough to sween the suburbs immediately beyond it. inese suourDS were iu possestuou 01 the French Pontifical Zouaves, the r or- eign Legion, and another French corps, of which I forget the name. So long as they could hold them, and notably the Faubourg Banien, the Prussians would be nnable to nee their artillery against the town, and the army could Wltndraw at lis leisure, a meoacuwi was sent forward to these troops, and he brought back word from their com mander, Arago, that it we were all ready we might stay and play a game of billiards, and they would answer for the enemy not disturbing us till it was up. 'Only, if tney do piay, ' auaea poor Ara go, Witn a true rrenenman s gayeiy iu danger, "tell them to make as many double coups as they can." Yon may be sure we did not hesitate to' forego the pleasure of the game. At ten o'clock we commenced moving out of town, amid a dead silence, for the guard holding the r , 1 : i .11 nrv- 0 nno iaUDOUrifS. 11UU1W1UI1L U U Ur W,VW men, were simply waiting in presence of tbe immense host before tnein, and tne Prussians bad not yet thought proper to beo-in. I sicken to tell of what followed, and yet 1 glory to nave tne privilege 01 tellinc it. la auout nan an nour irom the commencement of our march, and when the advance had barely got clear of the town, a loud roar of artillery from Mont Joie shook earth and air, and the rirtt shower of an iron storm that was to beat nnceasingly for over eight honrs fell on the devoted guard at Banien. Idle to attempt to go back to help them; idle to plan anything, do anything, but march on away from them with what speed we may. uar nanus were attempting to hearten as np with merry tunes when this infernal accom paniment first broke on oar ear, aud made our music seem bnt a devil's jig playing our comrades to their doom. A deep growl runs through the ranks. "Stop, or niaKe it a ueau marcii, cry a dozen voices, and without sign from tambour major the drummers cease. Tramp, tramp, tramp, goes forward to safety the Army of Loire. "The army of Ther-niopyhe" may not hear the sound of its own marching, since it cannot go for ward and will not so oacK, so it stands still and waits for death. Plan of the battle of tue lauuourcs, Dy which our retreat was covered, there is none to give. There were no "movements," properly so called, on the French side, and no movements were necessi tated on tue otner. ine rmssians sun-' ply fired nntil they judged that the breaches in the living fortress warranted an assanlt, and then they dashed at them with cavalry and infantry, only to be driven baok in ruin by the Chassepot. The failure of repeated attempts of this kind at length taught them to rely exclusively on their artillery, aud with the immediate danger of an assault in the open removed, the French were enabled to withdraw to the partial shelter of Banien aud the Gare des Autrais, the principal places to be held. Banien was assigned to the Foreign Legion, composed mainly of young men of pleasure from Paris, not a few of tbem Americans, and Autrais to the French Pontificals, who, though they had shown fair fight at Home, had still, like their comrades, their military spurs t win. Tbe point of honor between the two coips was which should surrender last, or to put it differently, since each had the certainty of death before it, which should raise tne last snout ot de fiance to the foe. Neither won, it was a dead heat to glory. Of 1,500 of the For- eign legion m came back to moia, and-of 370 Zouaves but 17 left the field alive. ine shelter the men had found, though it saved their lives for tbe moment, did but prolong their agony; and it mnst have proved far severer test to their fortitude than even the- the stand in th open, where death came too swiftly to permit them to reflect on it terrors. . Those in . the railway station sought the shelter of the tracks and the waiting rooms; those in the faubourg hid themselves in the ., cellars of the nouses, ready to spring ' forth ' the moment an enemy could be found to face them.
