Some items in the European news by the cable should have lead as lollops: The Colorado, Admiral Goldsboroueh's flagship of the United States squudrou, from Lisbon, has arrived at Plymouth, and sailed lor Cherbourg. The Frolic is with her. The great prize-iitrht for the championRhip of England, between Jem Mace and Joe (Joss took place to-day, August 7. Tw enty-one rounis were louyht, when Mace was declared the winner. Tns Defunct Diet. The German Diet, on quitting Frankfort, removed, as has been stilted, to Au?sburtr, but as a matter ot form only. A 13c riin letter gives some details respecting the present composition of that assembly: "la the first place, it comprises the rep resent at ive ot Austria, then those of Bavaria, Wurtemburg, Baden, and of Ilessc-Durmstadt, with the en voys of Saxe-Meinlngeu, Lichtenstcin, and the younger branch of Retiss; so much tor the reigning princes. To them must be ad led the representatives ot princes inparttbus inlxdelium, that Is to say, of the territories occupied by the Prussian armies, and consisting of Saxony, Hanover, Electoral Hesse, Nassau, and Frank lort. The Grand Duke ot Hesse will soon pass from the first category into the second, aud the Grand Duke of Baden is believed to bo only waiting for the approacn ot the Prussiaus to recall his troops Irom the Federal army, and his envoy irom Augsburg." The number of sovcieigns having representatives In the Diet, and being in possession of their States, will then be reduced to tour the Emperor of Aus'ria, the Kings of Bavaria and Wurtumberg, and the Prince ot Lichtenstein. Why Benedek was Defeated. In the church of the Jesuits, at Vienna, a lew days ago, Father Kinklowstroem declared in the pulpit, that if the Austiian army hud been beaten its reverses were not to be attriuuted to the detective com binations ot its chicls, the needle-gun, or the skill ol the Prussian generals, but solely to the will of Piovidence, who had thus punished Austria for having confided the chief command to Benedek, a Protestant, una an enemy of the true religion. "The reverend gentleman,'' ob serves the Jndeperidance, "appears to have for gotten to explain how and why Providence, having permitted a Protestant, to be deteated, bad, at tlie same time, allowed two princes of tho same religion to be rewarded by victory." Cioakb for the Prussian Soldiers. A letter from llddleborg has the lollowlnc: "The nes which reaches us trom Frankfort is not of a nature to reassure the population menaced witli invasion. The incrediole war contribution of eight ciitars a head, ot which I 6poke yesterday, was nut a 1 idiculous invention of party spirit, it was a reality. (July I ought to add that the sol dieis, les9 immoderate than their chiefs, in general refuse to accept the in, and content them selves with two or tuiee. Here people are qu te easy cn tais subject; they will oiler the laiuous cigars of the Pala inute, and there is no man living who could resist the aetiou ot three of those. If General de Falkenstein compelled the Pruesians to smoke eight, he would put tne heroism ol his troops to a rude test." A Story of a Sentinel. A story is told of a Prussian sentinel stationed ou the steeple at Troppau, and lelt behind there when his com pany retreated. The citizens attempted to take him prisoner, but the Prussian easily defended with his bayonet the narrow winding stair by which alone access could be eaiued to the 6teeplc They then decided on reducing him by famine, but the Prussian having with him a good supply oi cartridges, announced that, un less he was regularly and well led, he would shoot every one who passed in the streets around the church. The good soldier thus contrived to maintain bis position for two days, when Trop pau was reoccupied by the Prussiaus and he was relieved. A Disousteb Officer. The German journals state that Colonel Pechmann, of tne Bavarian army, in despair at the defeat of his regiment at Kvsingen, alighted trom his home duriug the retreat alter the battle, and goln? into the room 01 a wayside inn, committed suicide by blowing out his brains. A Parisian Joke. Among the recent "inven tions" in France, which have been brought to light by the discussion on the needle-gun, is one which fires twenty balls a miaute and nas a musical box in the butt, thus doing away with the necessity of regimental bands. Hungarians Srrvino Prussia. The Prussian journals announce that a Hungarian legion of about six thousand men has been lormcd by Prussia at Neisse, ana placed under the com mand of Klapka and other Hungarian officers. Beer Drinkers. The Cologne Gazette says that the eight thousand Bavarians who had been stationed at Schleusingeu drank, duriug their two and a half das' stay at that place, ninetv thousand quarts of beer.

SPEECH OF GENERAL LOGAN. lie Denounce tho President m Dema togas, t'puold tho Budleal Convene, and Plicbc into the Month. Chicaoo, August 9. On the occasion of the nomination ol 'General John A. Lcgan for Con gressman at lare, by toe State Republican Convention atSpiiigtield, ycsterday.tbe General accepted tne nominaiiou in a speech of ereat length. He commenced his peech witn a detense of Congress and its acts, and a severe attack upon the President, saying that Johnson became President by the hand of an assassin, whose heart was black and brain was diseased with the desire to perform some great act for the benefit of traitors and treason. He became President in that way by the act of this nian Booth, and most fatthfuily has he performed his duty by that only constituent who made him President. Alter appealing to the Convention to stand by Congress, he passed to the platlorm. The issue on which the contest is to be fought is the Constitutional a-nenlmenr. All men born here shall bo citizens, and those who come here should be made citizens if they can take the,. cata of allegiance. Ho was heartily in lavor of making negroes citizens, lie was in favor of equalizing representation in Congress. The South must have no more lor its votes than the North. Representation nui.it be based ou the actual voting population. lu relation to disfraichtsetnent of Rebel ofbcials civil and military, the ouly fault bo bad to find with the amendment was that it does not go far enough. He was opposed to the repeal ot the iron-clad oath, and would sit and starve in Congress before he would give his con sent to its repeal. The South should be grate ful for our proposition in relation to the national debt. We propose to protect Ihein Irom paying their debts to P.ngland, who assisted them to go into the Rebellion, and gave them encourage ment, and trusted them for her pay. We propose to protect tlieai by saying to these English holders ot Rebel bonds: "Gentlemen, you can't collect any such debts as those." Wo propose to protect the South, and in return the Soutu will have to help us pay our debt9. When jou do all these things you may be represented in Congress, but until you consent to do them you cannot be. It may be five years, it may be more, and if it was left to me I would say: "Until you adopt the Constitutional amendment, if it is l'otty years, you snail not come in."' The speaker lelt alarm at what was going on in reference to the mture. He believed that Andrew Johnson, when he was inaugurated Vice-PreMdent, by his own conduct lot the confluence ot his party. Relieving that, and looking at all tliat had happened since, he (General Logan) camp to this conclusion. When all things were created, in the Creation it was necessary o have animals for all kinds of work, and when ihe Almighty looked around lor a demagogue he lound Andrew Johnson and made him. Thereupon Andrew Johnson began to look around to 6ec what he could do to mak his cal'ing and election sure. Ho said to him sel!: "I cannot be nominated again by the people who nominated me betore. I must figure up a plan lor renonuuation by the oth"r party." Hence he pot up a policy to create a breach between himself and Cougress. By this nijuus he would get the sympathy of the Democracy and construct a new party, go before the people, and be re electe d. When nominated the Demo cracy will oignnize in the North ami the South and hoid the elecrl'ii, and if wc tail to elect a President by tho votes of Ine North, and he tail to carry a majority ot the United states, be will declare himself the constitutionally elected Pre sident. Be asured that is what they are aiming at, and when they do that it will inaugurate another revolution and more bloodshed. The South understands this plan, and we must defeat it by carrying every Northern State as a unit. He w as opposed to temporizing with the South. Then; was but one way to treat with Rebels. Take the torch in one hand and the sword iu the other, and march to the music of the Union, with the flag unfurled, and sweep over their territory. He had no sympathy for the leading traitors, no commiseration fur them. He couid lorget no man who had lost his lii'e and who had been maimed in this war for tbe Union, aud he could forgive no man w ho had fought against it. If elected to Congress he would carry out w hat he had said. He could sot forgive the Soutn. There was no use in asking him to do it If he changed hH princi ples he would give his constituents due time aud notice to elect another man in his place. Alter an appeal to the Convention to so home and go to work, the General concluded. Many of Mr. Trumbull's friends think that Logan's nomination lor Congressman at large withdraws mm nom tne senatorial track. Tins is by no means certain. Senator Trumbull was appointed Senator white holding a similar position to Logan's, and, therciore, precedents are agaiust him. OFFICIAL ARMY GAZETTE.
