B E I E D S III. EXPIATIONS OP HIS POSITION ANp THIS APPA IS AT VMS. Conferences with BUm?rck-Emsh-The Spanish Throne-Prince of Hohenaol . lern-No Responsibility of the Present War-The Meeting with thc King nt Ems-No Insults-MoblH*n???? ot Prussian Arm y-B lamarck's Scheming. The fellowing is a translation of an interest? ing communication from M. Benedettl, late French Ambassador at the Conrt of Berlin : FROM TUB TEAR i860. * . . In 18601 was soddenly ordered to Turin to expedite the reunion to France ol Savoy and Nice, as unforeseen obstacles had occurred to lt. Switzerland reclaimed Cha blais and Fauclgny, and lt may be. recollected that the press of England, speaking on behalf ef the public and of the government, gave its unanimous support to this claim. Piedmont, on its part, trusted that those complications, which lt sought to aggravate for its own ob-? lect, would lead ns to give up to the County of ?ice the conntry of Garabaldi and a portion or Italian territory. Leaving Paris on March 20, I signed, on the 24th, Hie cts-*?on treaty wifh M. Cavour, who was not unconscious of tue difficult led which this act would create lor aim. CONFERENCES WITH BISMARCK. On the 9th of Julv, 1866, six dava alter the battle of Sadowa, I was ordered by telegram to rejoin the Prussian headquarters, and ob all I could to persuade the King- ot Prussia to - agree to an armistice. At the Prussian head? quarters, in Moravia, I had several conferences 'With M. de Bismarck, and after these I went to Vienna, which place I reached on the 15th. On the'20th the plenipotentiaries of the two "belligerent powers,-by my endeavors, signed under the walla of that capital preliminaries of peace, upon the basis ol the integrity of the Austrian empire. SENT TO EMS. Finally, when I was sent to Ems, what were my instructions'? They were to obtain the re? nunciation of the Prince of Hohenzollern to the crown ol Spain, which he* had accepted with the full consent of. the Kiug -of Prussia. Was I successful In my representations, whjch ou this occasiou were addressed personally to a powerful monarch, proud, and justly so, .of bis success-? Yea, most assuredly. I was en? gaged four days in negotiating and in soothing mieceptibllities, and carried out the ditty which was entrusted lo me. THE PRINCE OF HOHENZOLLERN AND THE SPAN? ISH THRONJE. Prince Antoine had intimated to the Cabinet of Madrid the renunciation of his son, and the' King, In informing me Of lt, was d?sirons that r should be made aware of it, and thatishOsfd . communicate to Paris that he bad -rt ve a bis acquiescence as sovereign and heud of the lamily. Deeming these concessions insuffi? cient, some members of the legislative pody ivished to question the gay ern trie nt, asserting that lt w?s necessary to obtain from Pr.nssia an engagement that co Prince of the house- of Hohenzollern should ?cr the future consent to' mount tho throne of Spain. The question was'in truth postponed, but the purport of lt wer made .known from the tribune; and the minister, thinking it indispensable in tho ex? cited state ofthe pub dc mind to'carry out the view which he had "suggested, sent me fresh" instructions to act In-.hat sense, i . J. RB8FONSIBUJTT OK THE PRESENT WAR. Was such a guarantee necessary ? Waa Lae agitation which pervaded all classes of the people earnest and . ? in cere-? Could not (he national feeling be restrained or appeased In - some other-way ? These are questions wi nen must be cleared up some time or .other, and. then it will be seen whether the opposition! members were justlled In declining to take any share In the responsibility of the present war. What I can affiirm beyoud fear ot con? tradiction ls, that I successfully carried out my first instructions, and protected peace from the danger with whl hit was threatened hy? the candidature of Prince Leopold, although new demands were made which led us fdtailv into war. That will be shown by the reports Which I eent from Ems to the government of the Emperor, and which will close the series ol' papers which 1 propose to publish. NO ONS INSULTING OR INSULTED AT EMS. During this mission, as well as during tiiose which preceded it, I received instructions ex? clusively from the Foreign Minister, accord? ing to which I shaped my conduct and my langnage. I never had the honor ol a private correspondence with the Emperor, and, con? trary to positive assertions, bis Majesty always abstainedirom addressing his demands direct? ly to me. You may not bc inclined to believe it, but I solemnly assure you ofthe truth of what I say, and my proposed publication will clearly show it. I wul add. since-you wish it, that al Ems there was .no one either- insulting or insulted, and lhat thu King himself was . gr atiy surprised when be was mode acquaint? ed with thc unfounded statements in several journals which were mlstakenlj supposed to nave been made by eye witnesses. A TRUST NOT BETRAYED. In giving yoa these details I do not seek to* deceive myself or hops to convert- prejudiced ? people or io disarm political opponents. --It is1 not likely, after having overturned the empire, that they will show.themselves jost and true to one of Hs most devoted servants. I will prove to them, VQU will see, that in good faith' or In bad faith, they have put error in the place-ol truth. Nevertheless they winnot cease lo assert that I. have betrayed'the trust reposed in me by the- nation. But there- will still be honest and impartial people In the world, and history happily is not made by con? temporaries. Tho next.generatlon of writers will.exhaust B'rery source ol information will scrutinize all opinions; and it is tuting that materials should be. prepared for them by opposing authentic state incuts and undeniable lacis to Interested and deceptive assertions. THE MOBILIZATION OP TUE PRUSSIAN AJIMT. What ls it that l he public will not swailew ? Among the privates, and even among some of the officers of uhr army, who hunt aller causes -ior our defeater'it :ls regarded as certain that Prussia began u> mobilize her army ia June tflat ts to say?, severa) weeks before war was declared; that she wits successful in Conajcal lng the completion of this step from rne/nnd jbhtit I ha i given uo hint yf it at Pa. Ls audi that we were thus surprised by the enemy ia tho .midstof the measures ?ve were biking td begin n campaign. That is absurd, false and impossible. You know, in fact, thal Prussia only summoned lier, xeayrve" when we an4 notiuccd in the sittirii of the ISth of July our resolution to claim by force oXarms the securi? ty which was Temsert irs4, aiid that it ts ioillili to suppose.tLutsu'.ue hundreds of ^totisiui&rot meu could; be brought ty serra at oue tune] without W&^aci besoming known tb til? public .and the, piess.

Baron StoB'eL, colonel ol artillery, an officer of g.eat merit, whose duty it was to ailend lo the orders Issued by the War Minister at Berlin] but in bearing testimony to the distinguished manner in wnlch he alway.? performed his duly I prefer laying before the public official documents, where those desirous o? knowing the truth will be able to lind lt, and be suri prised at their having, perhaps, believed state? ments so utterly unworthy their confidence, j NOTHING OF TUE PRETENDED TREATY. You will per?oive that I have said nothing* on the subject ot the pretended ireaty which I had taken upon myself to submit to ilieap piowal ol M. de fJlsmarck. 1 have already given explanations on this subject, and will return to lt once nuire in the publication 1 ' hav? announced, ir, instead of successes, the Prthsiaus had met with reverses, Hie repu? tation ot* the Chancellor of thc Norih would not have outlived an act so outrageously dis? loyal. Bul victory covers all eccentricities or excuses them. Uni fate has nor yoi spoken its last word, and, if foriune should airain smile on ns. if the controversy with Russia should become cirapllcate..1, certain embassies, such as those of Loudon or Brussels*, would appear less prudent than they are deemed to oe at present, and yon would Dornaps ti a ri strong proof that tito design to unite belgium to France, as l have ainrniej, is entirely a Prus? sian conception. THE SCHEMING OF BISMARCK. Aller nit what dyes the scheming ol 31. de Bismarck ptovc ?

Excuse these detalla I shall enlighten you more fully when the time comes for giving an explanation to the public. BBNKDITTI. A CHAPTER OW PUZZLES. "Two brothers," began the professor, im? pressively addressing the hostess, "were walk? ing together down the street, and one of them, s top pi. ig at a cet tain hon sa, knocked at the door, observing, 'I have a niece here who is Ul.' 'Thank heaven,' observed the other, 'I have got no niece,' and he walked away. Now, how could that be f" "Why, lt's a riddle 1" exclaimed Mr. Funni dog, delightedly1. - . "And one that you wlU not guess In a hurry, simple as it is," observed the professor confi? dently. "Come, ladles and gentlemen, solve the'problem." I "I see-" ejaculated Mrs. Housewife. "Hush ! whisper in my ear," cried Puzsle ton, with all the excitement of a child with a top. "Don't let 'em;hear lt. Niece by mar? riage. Stuff and nonsense. The thing ls not any foolish kind of catch nt all;" and once more he glanced with hostility at Funnldog, as much as to say, "Such' as* be would ask you." Nothing can be simpler than my ques? tion, "i've got a niece that's iii," says one brother. - "Thank Heaven, I have not got a niece," says the other. -"How can that be? You all give it up? Well, the Invalid was his daughter." , ' ? "-T | '. ; T "Oh, I see,"said Mrs. Housewife, despond inglv. "How very stupid m us not. to find It out." "Yes, indeed, ma'am," answered the re? morseless savant "That failure only shows how difficult it ls for ordinary minda to grasp more than one ides at the same time. The at? tention ls solely fixed on the different varie? ties of nieces." "And also," observed Mr. Aloes, (who was much displeased at being classed among "or? dinary minds,*) fm? also, the :attinuon-1s naturally "distracted from the point at issue'by the brutality of the father's remark. Now, that isla itself 'a catch,' in my opinion." "Well, slr, IwUlgtve yop. another simple exercise for the understanding this has no such distracting element," observed the pro? fessor cooUy. "A blind beggar had a brother. The brother died. What relation were they to one another ?' Come, tell me that." "Why, they were brothers." exclaimed the colonel, with the rapidity of a small boy at the bottom ol" pis class, who hopes to. gale pro? motion. . i ' " s. .'" < . " "?'o, sir," answered the professor, regard? ing Thunderbomb with interest as-a significant, type of some low order of Intelligente, "they were not brothers, or I should scarcely haye asked the question." "i'hey might be brothers-in-law," suggested Funnldog. "Undoubtedly they might," replied Puzzle ton, with a pitying smile; "but they were not." s J /: < >. . \ \ "Stop a bit," enid McPherson hurriedly, like one who has not got-his answer quite ready, but yet doesn't wish to be anticipated. "Tue blind beagar, yon say, had a brother, and tho brother "died-. Well, of course, if one was! dead, you know, they could njt be brothers any longer." "The Idea is novel," observed the profes? sor groVebi "-but you'have' not h$;ppon the e.vacrsolritfoh.- The fact- is, gentlemen anil. ladles, a bilud beggar maybe either-male or.' female. In this instance she was a female.. Thev were brother and sister." "1 call that a catch." said Aloe?, gloomily. .**WeU? atoll events, it was an easy one, und you all missed it," relumed the professor, willi quiet triumph. "Now, I will give you one more example ei social, ar i la aieUC, which, will ire avail -respect* buna tide, lt is a tip: pl. question In subtraction, and all I shall ask of you ls-since two or three guesses would ar? rive at the truth by mere elimination-to write down the reply "on paper. A man went, ?alo a cobbler's and bought, a pair of boots for sixteen shillings. He put down a sovereign [twenty shillings,] and tho. cobbler, haviug no : change, sent to a- neighboring public house, i and gave it to him. Later In the doy ilie landlord of tue Inn sent in to pay that the j sovereign was a bad on?,>and Insisted upon: ti? cont'-t!r-inuking luright. which hence iM lngly did/"Now, how^moeir ?H' the' cobblffr lose by (tho whole transaction \ There is no play upon words, or anything but' ri common sum in arithmetic." "Wliy, it is the easiest - thing In tho'.tvQrkl," ejaculated .Housewife.. "f)f coursothe cobbler lost just-" "Be quiet, sir 1" cried Puzzleton, very angri? ly. "Write lt down, will you-if you can write." "Seratch a professor, and you find a Tartar." whispered Aloes. "You had better do as he wishes." So we all wrote down wha!, we Imagined to be the loss which the cobbler had sustained; and it was wonder.ul how opinions differed within such narrow limits. Thc colonel made him lose two pounds. Mr. Aloes made him lose Just a pound and the boots. MAV Funnldog made him lose six and thirty shillings. Mr. McPherson made him lose sixteen shil? lings and the boots, minas the profit he made upon Hie boots (which, said the professor, it is uot necessary to take into consideration.) . Mr. Seule Ulli, who used to Investigate tho bills of extortionate Swiss landlords, set down ihe loss with confidence at twelve shillings and the boots. * Housewife wrote: "Why,-of course he lost Ihe boots aud twenty-four shillings." Mrs. Housewife and the ladles bit their pens, ont declined to commit themselves. 'They had never been taught," they said, "thc rule of th ree1." "You arc all wrong," sait1, the professor quietly, "as I expected you would be. The way to get at the matter ls tb consider what is gained.: The landlord and the whole story of his changing the sovereign may be taken out ofthe question, since he is neither belier nor worse ror ibo transaction. Thc buyer of the boots gets in exchange for his bad sovereigns : four shillings and a pair of boots, and that ls Just what the cobbler loses.";' . "Ii ooo ouly had a room lo one's self, and the whole day before one to do ir. In," sighed Mrs. Housewife, "I think I could answer any of these questions." C O H 31 ER CIA L NE H'S. . E\por?s.
