Paris, Sept. 20. The whole press of this city condemns Emperor William's recent speech at Erturt in which it is reported he alluded to Napoleon as a "Corsician parvenu." Viknna, Sept. 20. A painful impres sion has been produced in the highest Austrian circles by the report of the kaiser's remark about Napoleon I., and anxiety is expressed that he will be un able to deny it. The house of Hapsburg, strange as it may seem, has Napoleon enrolled as one uf its connections by marriage with Archduchess Maria Louise. The Austrian Imperial family is tho proudest in Europe and it accepted tho first Napoloon intp its house. The King of Sweden is descended from ono of Napoleon's generals. So to rovile the little Corsican is to offend a large portion of European royalty. Valparaiso, Kept. 21. Ex-president Baltnaceda committed suicide Satur day morning at the Argentine leg- ; ation in Santiago, and the event is the one absorbing topic of conversation ia every part of the city. There la a min gled feeling of savage rejoicing at hi death, and bitter regret that he should have killed himself, instead of falling in to the club.hes ol tniunaiea wizens, who would have delighted to rend him inib from limb for the long list of cruel- ties for which they hold him responsible. , It is impossible for anyone not in this country, or not a native, to realize the intensity of the hatred entertained toward the ex-preBident. The national holidays, which were to have ended Saturday night, have been prolongea or the suicide. The feasts, illuminations, and other celebrations in honor of the success of the congressional party re kept up, followed by the marching of fremied crowds through all tlie street, shouting songs of triumph over tl9 death of their lormer ruler. It isthe general belief that Balmaceda s death will hasten, in a great deerw!, lii restoration of peace throughout Chill. Now that the chief enemy of the victori ous junta is no more, it is likely bis followers will be shown mercy, since without Balmaceda to direct them there is very little to be feared. Italy, France, ! Sweden and Norway have followed the lead of the United States in the official recognition cf the junta. Germany, it willM remembered, was the second natioaf ttulo so. No official recognition has ytt come from England, This creates considerable comment. - TraauM-oaUneatal Earning. Chicaoo, Sept. 18.
