time which has elapsed sirce their appearance seems
to augur tbat ibey wero not tbe precursors ot an

a feint, en passant, againtt Silesia, with the
object of drawing tbe a'tentlon of the Prussian
commanders irom the real point of attack. Where

are well watched on this side, and (beacons are
established on every bill, and beside them sentries
stand constantly reaoy to set them on tire and so
flash from hilltop to billtoD tbe news ot tbe enemy's

wrapped thickly round the polos and daubed plunti
luby with puch; beside each stands an improved
sentry-box, a bo of straw, whicb affords in the mean
time sbel cr from tbe sun or ram to the sentinel, and
which will also servo, in case of necessity, to add to
the brightness of tbe tlame ot the beaoon. Theroads
leading to the frontier are constantly patrolled both
by liigbt and day, while vidette and pickets are

Tbe Prussians have hot Wn careless witnesses of
tbe great struggle in America. The organization of
their army shows tbat its administrators have etgerly
noted all the results of mooom scienoe and advanced

THR PRUSSIAN ADVANCK INTO ROUEMIA.
Correspondence London Times.
Berlin, June 28 The Austrian army having re
peatedly crossed tbe Prussian frontier wltnout pro
cteding any distance into tbe interior, General
Jloltke bas now determined to take the initiative
and seek out tbe enemy in thoir own quarters. By
this resolute step he apparently intends to disturb
the hostile forces while yet leeling about for an
eligible point of attack, and perhaps to engage an
outlying corps before be hus lime to fall back upon
tbe main foioe. Besides those secondary advan
tages, biscbiel object naturall is to transfer the war
to foreign territory, and kee tbe bauelu desolation
of tie batt e-tk'ld irom his couutrt if be can.
Tbe chance of success would be materially en
lanced were tho lront of tho invading army less ex
tended than it Is. Its right flank, the first army,
uuder tbe command ol Prince r rederlck Cliarlos. is
at this moment advanolna into Bohemia by way ot
Ziltuu, in Eastern Saxony, and Heidoberg, Mark
lissa, and Wigaudsthai, in the adjoining d'Strict of
Northwestern Silesia. South ot the last. meutloned
place, the Giant Mountains, lormiug an impassable
wall tor a distance of about iorty miles, mtervene
between tbe right audlief flanks ot the agesoseive
orces; and it is only at the Pass of Lands hot and
in irs Immediate vicinity that the Crown Prinoe,
with tbe seoond or sllesian army will Hod it feasible
to eflect bis entrance into tbe Austrian territory.
From wing to wing there is a distance of nearly
one hundred miles, a drawback whion, however, I
not without Hs peculiar advautain s. Should Prince
Frederick Charles get as far north as Keiohenburg,
cr lurnau, betore coming np with the enemy, any
Austrians that may be disposed along tbe Saxon
frontier will have to retreat at onoe, or they run tha
rifk ol being out off Irom the otner and more oon
siderab'e portion of their aimy knowa to be sta
tioned along tbe Silealan border. Ins advanoe was
lobe made simultaneously on both wings, bat has
as yet been announced only of tbe first or larger
division undor tbe command of Prinoe Frederick
( barles. The whole ot the Prussian army am
.ployed on this hazardous undertaking is here eeii

Er ward scbnlls was cbirgod with committing aa
aesanlt and Lattery on Uenrv Keice. Keioe is the
propilo or of a workshop, Edwara Sohulti is in
bis employ. Keice stated that he attempted to put
a man out of the shop, and bcnulli stiuck him. The
defense staled tnat Scbultz did nothing at an except
to part the combatant. 'J he Jury rent erod a yerdiot
ol not guilty.
Elizabeth Wilson, colored, was chargod with
commit' ing an assault and battery upon a colored
cbi a, Charles Parker.
Ibe prosecution stated that, at the request of
defendant, tho child v aa permitted to stay with
defendant about tbreo months lor company, as she
said.
A witness was passing the house of delontlant,
when his ati ention was attiaoted by the screams of
the child. Ho looked in, and them saw Elizabeth
Wilson cruelly whipping tbe child, who was then in
bed. Tbo mother tnen took tbe child back to her
home, and upon examining him she fouud tha. his
flesh was in a m st horrible condition, caused, a tba

ant Tbe wound was sa d to bo seven inches long
and tour inches wide, and so severe as to cause the
child to lay on Its lace lor three months, undor the
caie of a physician.
Tbe Jury considered this a most biutal, Hottentot,
and cannibal affair, and rondored a verdict of
guilty.
The child was p'acod upon a table, and told the
Judge all about tbe affair.
I be defendant stated tbat tho whole was caused
by the extremely filthy condition ol the child.
Edwaid Ihorn a boyol about twelve years, was
chaiged with committing an a-sau t aud battery
upon Kobert Sberer. with intent to kill.
It vt as alleged bv the to niouwealth that on the
night ol the 2d or 3d of last May. Kobert "herer waa
parsing along Sears ot.oet between Sixth and Se
venth, when Thorn, who was near by with soma
other boys, commenced throwing stone, at him.
One boy, named James Sterling, cried out 'Tin him.'
Then three stones were thrown; tue third one, at
leged to bave been thrown by Ihoru. struck him on
tbe right temple. He put his baud to his bead and
ran home.
Physicians testified that the wonnd was a very
severe one, being a compound fracture of the right
templf ; that a piece ot the sknll had been rom vtd,
ana that they had strong doubts concerning his
recovery.
Tbe defense do not deny that Sberer was struck
with a stone, and that tbe injury inflicted is very
severe; but they do deny that Thorn threw the
stone that struck Stierer, alleging that the stone
was thrown by J ami s Sterling, who on the stand
aomitted that he bad been lndieted for this offense.
