February, 1802, to the amount of f 34!), 000,
and that they had demanded and been re
fused payment in coin of the July interest
thereon, and had also been refused payment

July interest on $370,700 of the city's loans,
created subsequent to the said act of Con
gress, held for the same estate, but in sepa
rate certificates. The reason assigned for the

THE WAR.'
napoleon s circular to foreign "powers
bismarck's breach of faith several
skirmishes on the frontier.
Paris, July 22. The Journal Officiel pub
lishes a circular of the Minister of Foreign
Affairs, dated the 21st, and addressed to the
diplomatic agents of France at foreign capi
tals. The circular mentions the explanation
made on the 15th of July in the Chambers,
in regard to the rapid events of a negotiation,
in which, as fast as we redoubled our efforts
to preserve peace, the secret designs were de
veloped of an adversary resolved to render
peace impossible. .
Whether the Berlin Cabinet had judged
war necessary for the accomplishment of
their projects against the self-government of
the German States, or, hardly satisfied at hav
iDg established in the centre of Europe a
military power formidable to all its neigh
bors, they had wished to turn to aooount the
power already acquired by displacing defi
nitely to the advantage of Prussia the inter-
national equilibrium, the premeditated in
tention to refuse us guarantees which were
indispensable to our security as well as our
honor showed itself by the strongest evi
dence in their conduct of the negotiations.
The circular then mentions the candidature
of the Prince, of Hohenzollern, and declares
that the Berlin Cabinet hoped to place the
Prince on the throne of Charles V by sur
prise, believing Europe would accept an ac
complished fact, and that France, in spite of
her temporary displeasure, would hesitate to
oppose the expressed will of the Spanish
people, who were friendly to her. The
French Government, informed of the danger
from this intrigue, did not hesitate to de
nounce it to the representatives of the people
and to foreign powers. '
All have felt that Prussia was alone in her
unscrupulous policy, and that, knowing her
self to be without the support of a oommon
right, she has, nevertheless, sought to im
pose npon Europe further abuse of so danger
ous an extension of her influence that France
took up the cause and the balance of power,
knowing it to be the cause of all people
menaced like herself by the disproportionate
aggrandizement of one royal house. In
doing so she had not placed herself in op
position to her own maxims and policy or
tboe of the great powers.
Tte vir.'uW cite,? as proof the CiVse of Bel
gium, Greece, and Naples, and the refusal of
the great powers to allow any of their princes
to mount these thrones.
The circular then mentions the withdrawal
of Hohenzollern, the refusal of Prussia to
give guarantees, and other incidents which
Have followed, adding: "France ought to
demand guarantees, since Prussia has already
E;iven her word that the Prince of Ilohenzof
ern should not mount the throne of Spain,
when, in March, 1809, there had been a ques
tion of his candidature. At that time the
French Minister at Berlin told the King no
Prussian could reign in Spain. , Count Bis
marck replied: 'France need not concern
herself at a contingency so improbable,' and
Herr von Thile, Prussian Under-Secretary of
Foreign Affairs, gave his word of honor that
Hohenzollern was not and could not be a
candidate.
"If assurances thus solemn cannot be re
lied upon, diplomatic intercourse must cease.
In repudiating such pledges, Prussia chal
lenges France, who now only demands in
view of the tergiversation that the former
renunciation of her designs be made real and
permanent."
The circular concludes by declaring that
history must assign to Prussia the responsi
bility for the war, which she had the means
of avoiding, and which, while she affects to
deplore it, she has rather sought, and adds:
"Under what circumstances has she done this?
It is, when France for four years past has
rtfrained with almost exaggerated scrupu
lousness from invoking against her treaties
concluded under mediation of the Emperor,
but to which she has failed to give a volun
tary support of all acts of this Government,
which Las only thought of means of freeing
herself from the obligations of treaties even
while feigning them. Europe has been a wit
ness. Let Europe pronounce upon the jus
tice of our cause."
A manifesto to the Germans will follow,
and will be introduced into Germany by way
of Italy.
Paris, July 220 P. M. Evening journals
report several skirmishes yesterday between
the advance guards along the line of the fron
tier, but give no details. It is extremely
difficult to obtain intelligence from the seat
of war, as correspondents are strictly forbid
den from approaching the army lines. The
authorities of Strasburg no longer permit
strangers to ascend the steeple of the cathe
dral. The movements of the troops on both
sides can be seen from that point.
Quarters are preparing for the Emperor
and Btaff at Shasburg. The number of
volunteers who have enlisted for the war is
1)7,000.
Many ladies oft'er their services as nurses
for the wounded. While in the service they
will wear a costume similar to that of Sisters
of Charity.
Paris, July 22. The Emperor came to
Taris to-day and received the Corps Legis
latif at the Tuileries. President Schneider,
in the name of the Corps Legislatif, addressed
the Emperor as follows:
"Sire: The Corps Legislatif has termi
nated its labors. It has unanimously voted
all subsidies and all laws needful for the
national defense, thus giving signal proof of
its patriotism.
"If it is true that not he who declares war,
but he who causes it is the real author, there
will be but one voice among nations, to lay
the responsibility upon Prussia, who, mad
dened by unhoped-for successes and en
couraged by our patience and desire to pre
serve for Europe the benefits of peace, has
conspired against our security and attacked
our honor. In such a case France knows her
duty.
"Ardent hopes follow you to the army,
which, accompanied by your son, you take
command of. Behind you behind our army,
bo accustomed to carry high the standard of
France is the nation. Remit without un
easiness the regency to your august spouse.
She will unite with authority her great quali
ties and insure the force given by the liberal
institutions inaugurated by you. The heart
of the nation is with you and the army."
To this the Emperor replied as follows:
"Messieurs: I experience great satisfaction
on the eve of my departure for the army, in
being able to thank you for the patriotic co
operation you nave given my government.
War is legitimate when it is made with the
assent of the couatry and the approbation of
its representatives, xou are right in recall
ing the words of Montesquieu, 'The true au
thor of war is not ne who declares but he who
renders it necessary.' We have done all that
depended on us to avoid it, and I may say the
entire nation, in its irresistible force, has dic
tated our resolutions.
"I confide to you, in parting, the Empress,
who will call you around her should circum
stances require. She knows how to fill cour
ageously the duty which the position imposes.
I take with me my son. He will learn in the
midst of the army how to serve his country,
llesolved to pursue with energy the great
mission confided to me, I have faith in the
success of our arms, for I know Franco is
standing behind me, and God proteots us."
Antwerp, July 22. An English fleet is
expected at the mouth of the Scheldt, and
pilots are waiting there to condact it to safe
anchorage.
Paths, July 2210 P. M. It is reported
here that the Prussian army has fallen back
and taken up a defensive position between
Coblentz and Mayence, but the report is con
tradicted. A dispatch from ' Berne says the
Swiss Government has forbidden the expor
tation of cereals and horses.
Lebceuf, Major-General of the army, left
Paris to-day for the front. It is said the
Emperor will go to-morrow, but his departure
is not certain. The report of the death of
General Donay is contradicted.
Popular demonstrations have been made in
Bavaria against the war. The llothschilds
lost twenty millions by the war. Erlanger
and other bankers also lose heavily. The Bank
of France has thirteen hundred millions in
specie.
Paris, July 22. It is reported to-day on
good authority that General Prim lately met
Prince Leopold of Hohenzollern on the
Franco-Spanish frontier.
Paris, July 22. Henry Martin, the cele
brated French historian, publishes a long
article in the Siecle this morning,' taking
ground that France ought to break with
Kome, seeing that the extravagant preten
sions of the Pope are fatal to the liberties of
the G alii can Church.
ROME.
Paris, Jaly 22. Tho following is the allo
cution delivered by the Pope on the oocasion
of the promulgation of the infallibility
dogma:
"The aotivity of the sovereign pointiff has
been great, but it does not destroy. It builds,
it does not oppress. It sustains and it often
defends the rights of our brethren; that is, the
rights of bishops and of some who have not
voted with us. Let them feel that they have
voted in error, and let them remember that a
few years ago they thought as we do. Have
they then two consciences, two wills on the
same subject ? Heaven forbid. We pray,
then, that God, who alone luukes irvU
wiinilumine their hearts and minds that they
may return to the bosom of their father, that
is, tne sovereign pontiff, the unworthy vicar
of Christ, and work with us against the ene
mies of the Church. Let it so be that we
may say with St. Augustine, 'Lord, you have
given us your admirable light and now we
see.' May Heaven bless you all.' "
