Tours, November 10.
The Prussians evacuated Orleans yes
terday in great haste, leaving about 500
pick and wounded. The day before the
French pained a great success at .!oul
miers. The Prussians had a strongly
entrenched position, but were dislodged,
suffering heavy loss. General Pertan
retreated and the French moved forward
to Geminy, where they will occupy
strong positions until the army of the
Loire moves entirely forward.
Gen. Paladina reports to the govern
ment that the battle which occurred two
days ago at Marchinaix is more impor
tant than at first rumored. The Prus
sians left 250 killed, and over 200 pris
oners were taken. The French troops
behaved exceedingly well. One regi
ment of chasseurs kept a large Prussian
force checked until other French troops
came up, when the Prussians retreated.
The journals of Lille announce that
Gen. Bourbaki, who has not resigned,
has organized a large force.
The news from Orleans is cheering.
Advices are just received of a series of
engaeenient near there, in all of which
the French were successful. The French
were pressing toward the city, and a.s
their movements tended to surround the
enemy, the latter were obliged to evacu
ate the city, lhc Prussians lost con
siderably in killed, wounded and prison
ers. There was great difficulty in ob
taining provisions, owing to the constant
drain which has been made by the re
peated requisitions of the enemy on the
people thereabouts. The surrounding
country is entirely ruined.

London, November 10.
Private dispatches received in this
city to-night state that the French tieet
are bombarding Hamburg.
A dispatch from Berne, via Berlin,
reports Garibaldi surrendered.
A special dispatch from Tours says
that at lengthy the French arms have
achieved a glorious triumph. Vander
taun, who was at Orleans with a corps
of twenty-five thousand men became
afraid his position might becomehemmed
in. The sixteenth corps of the army of
the Loire on the north bank of that
stream, and the seventeenth corps on
the south bank, were confronted toward
the west by bodies advancing 1'rom Char
tres and Charteau Dun. Dertann was
preparing to make a defensive retreat
northward toward Paris when he was as
sailed by the 16th corps, under Leisac.
After a severe engagement he was com
pelled to evacuate Orleans, which is now
occupied by the French. The Prussian
loss is 500 killed and wounded. The
pursuit of the retreating Prussians is
now going on. The defeat and capture
of the whole force is probable.
London, November U.
The following official dispatch was re
ceived to-night by the Standard :
Tours, November 10.
Orleans has been retaken after a se
vere fight.
Berlin, November 12.
Official reports of the capture of Ver
dun has been published. Two Generals,
eleven staff officers and 1C0 officers were
captured; besides these, 130 guns, 23,000
rifles and a large n amber of stores and
ammunition fell into the hands of the
Prussians.
The Cross Gazette says the authorities
will show no false generosity in retaining
from the bombardment of Paris. The
fire will open very soon.

Gen. Yon der Tour reports to head

Tours. November 12.
Seventeen thousand Prussian prisoners
captured at or near Orleans, passed
through this city to day on thfur way to
the south of France. Great excitement
was created among the people, and it
was with much difficulty that a riot was
prevented.
Nothing official is yet received from
the army of the Loire since the official
report of D'Aurelles. More prisoners,
captured in the battle of Orleans arrived
this afternoon .
London, November 12.
The whole tide of popular feeling now
in Englandjis running strongly in favor
of the French. Even the Times has
changed its tone and urges Germany to
make peace and withdraw from France
while she may with safety. This feel
ing is partly due to the horrdr excited
by the barbarous and wholly unjusiifiable
conducted of the Prussians in attempt
ing to suppress popular resistance in
France, partly to rapidly growing convic
tion that England will be the next vic
tim of German anbition. The speech
of the Lord Chief Baron the other day,
in which he declared Austria would lie
prostrate before Germany, that Russia
will be compelled to barter her Baltic
ports for Constantinople, and that Eng
land being only safe so long as she re
mains mistress of the seas, must arm
herself for a desperate struggle, has pro
duced great alarm and dismav, and a
hearty wish for the repulse of 'the Ger
man and the success of France.

London, November 12.
A epecial dispatch to the World frnm
Tours gives the following full details of
the victory of General D Aurelles over
Von Dert.-.nn not yet received. The en
gagement commenced both on the east
and west' of Orleans on the 9th inst.,
and was continued until the evening of
Thursday. During Thursday the French
drove the Prussians from Orleans, inflict
ing severe loss upon them, and are now
in occupation of the city. General Von
Dertann, with the remant of his army,
are now retreating on the road leading
from Orleans, to Pithiviers, "after vainly
attempting to force his way through
Chatteau Neuf and Montergis, where
he hoped to join the army of Prince
Frederick Charles. Gen. D'Aurelles
has a force of 50,000 men on the north
bank of the Doire, and 70.000 on the
south bank. Destruction of roads and
bridges between Commercy -and Orleans
was prevented by the advance of the
army under Frederick Charles. He has
about 75,000 men, and a great part of
whom probably are north of the Marne.
Aftor having disposed of the remnant
of Von Destanns army, D'Auselles will
march directly on Paris and assail the
German lines between Versailles and St.
Germain, while Trochu makes a sortie
with 150.000 men to cut his way out and
raise the siege. Communication be
tween D'Auselles and Trochu and the
government at Tours is constantly main
tained by carrier pigeons.

A man afflicted with St. Vitus' dance
in Indiana; is relieved of its painful
characteristics upon listening to music,
vocal or Instrumental. The moment it
ceases the pain again comes on him and
ha commences to shake in a fearful man
ner. When Napoleon was first apprised of
tne loundation or a Republican Govern
ment in Pans, he said: "This is the
greatest misfortune that could befall
France. A Republic!" And turning
to his captors, he remarked: "Now,
gentlemen, we have the same enemies
you and I."
"When circumstances rendered it imj
possible for him to attend the stated

congregation.
A Madison (Ind.) physician recently
removed a tumor, twenty-two inches in
circumference, from a patient, without
the use of any anaesthetic, and without
pain to the subject. A block of ice.
carved so as to conform to the shape of
the tumor and the incisions to be made,
was faced with salt, and the application,
for a brief period, rendered the parts
perfectly insensible to the, knife.
Here is a sample of the sort of tricks
that were played upon the unsophistica
ted philosopher of the New York Trib
une when he visited Kansas. lately : At
Lawrence he was taken in a carriage to
see the city and its improvements.
Keeping him engaged in conversation,
the irreverent scamps of his escort drove
five or six times around a square, at
each circuit passing a fine building in
course of erection. At. about the fifth
round Horace broke forth: "Well, well,
Lawrence is growing rapidly. Why,
there is a very large number of fine
buildings going up. Don't you fancy
there is a little monotony in the archi
tedbire, though?"
A Cardington, Ohio, man writes :
"We have a monstrosity short distance
from here that will beat the world. Last
Tuesday morning a lady gave birth to a
double child. It is of the natural length
of a child, with perfect head on each
end. On one side there are two perfect
legs with feet ; on this side ouly is the
gender apparent that of a female. On
the other bide there is one leg, which is
as large as both the others, and appears
to be double; the foot displays eight toes.
The creature is healthy. It takes its
food well in both mouths, and digests
well, lhere is but one set qt bowfls,
and it had but one navel string. One i
end will cry at a time! I think the old j
women will say, 'Did you ever ?" ' j
