Recruiting for the French army is being vigorously carried on in Canada. The treaty of peace between Brazil and Paraguay had not been signed on the tith inst. Nearly all the business part of Concord, N. 11., was destroyed by fire on Sunday morning. The customs receipts of the Government have not yet been affected by the European war, Secretary Boutwell will mako the award in tho matter of the Alaskan seal fisheries to-day. Four or five vessels are to bo added to our European , squadron for the better pro tection of our commerce. Surveying for the Northern Pacific Rail road was commenced at Olympia, Washing ton Territory, on Saturday. . No purchases in this oountry of vessel or war materials, by France or Prussia, will be permitted by the Government. Consul-General Roesing says he can only receive as volunteers such Germans as are still subjects of Prussia and liable to its mili tary service. Secretary Boutwell does not consider the prospect for funding the debt especially bril liant at present, and therefore will not attempt to hurry tho scheme. A system o- organized corruption and bribery between the ocean steamship lines i.td customs inspectors has just been re vealed in New York by the Government de tectives. A quarrel between the messenger of the Georgia House of Representatives and a member of that body, both colored, resulted yesterday in the former shooting and killing t he latter. Yesterday, at Tottsville, the Board of Trade rejected the proposition of the Work inguien's Beneficial Association, and an nounced their intention of treating directly with the miners. This, it is said, insures re sumption. TUB WAR. 1 11 E FRESCH-rnUSSIAN SECRET TREATY EXCITE MENT IN PARLIAMENT OYER THE MEASURE AUSTRIA PROCLAIMS HER NEUTRALITY. London, July 23. A special correspondent writes from Metz on the ''2d inst. describing the movements of troops at that place. On that day there were ten thousand soldiers at Forbacn, seven thousand at St. Avolt, three thousand at Saarguemines. There is a large cavalry camp at Thionville, which protects the left of tho French army. This force will be increased to forty thousand. - The 1st Division of the 3d Corps is com manded by General Azmands, and is com posed of the 18th Battalion Chasseurs, and .VJtb, C'Jth, 81st, and Oiith Regiments of the line. This division marched out on the morning of the '2'2d, and by this time is at Bonlay, on the road to Saarlouis. The Imperial Guard is reported to be on the way to Metz, but their probable destina tion is Nancy. Bavarian videttes have already been seen with the Prussians. This fact is considered important, showing the complete blending of the Prussian and South German forces. ' London, July 25. It is confidently affirmed here that the Prussians are retiring and con centrating between Mayence and Coblentz. Many arrests are made daily. A correspon dent of the London Standard was arrested. He entered the camp without leave, telling the sentinel that his British passport was an order from headquarters. The authorities prohibit the sale of mili tary maps to civilians; officers only can buy them. No parcels or goods are permitted to come by rail except by quartermasters' orders. Factories unable to obtain coal will be obliged to close. Marshal Bazaine is sending everywhere for maps of Bavaria. The military chest arrived this morning. All the money is in gold, which shows that the French intend to quit the territory imme diately, and carry on the campaign where French notes will not be taken. Great importance is attached here to the gunboats, which will be used as they were in the American war, and will act on the Rhine and Moselle, and possibly on the Saar, should the Prussians defend that stream. Each gun boat carries one heavy gun, manned by twelve men, and commanded by a lieutenant. It ia believed that the Prussians have no gun boats. Everything is quiet in Luxembourg. Communication with Germany is easy. The French officers boast that they have a million of men between Thionville and Strasbourg. Passes to newspaper correspondents are EtUl rigidly refused. General Bazaine sends to all applications a written reply, as follows: "The formal orders of the Emperor pro hibit the granting of any authorization to follow the headquarters to any person not belonging to the army. I have, therefore, no power to grant the request you have done me the honor to make, and can only refer yon to the decision of the Major-.General of the Armv." ' The Paris correspondent of the Tribune writes, under date of the 25th, that the Em. peror was expected to leave quietly for the front last night, but he did not go. Ilia departure wUl probably be delayed some days. It is certain that be is ill. Paris, July 23 Midnight. Austria has issued a proclamation oi neutrality similar to that made by Russia. Bebun, July 25. The official journal pub lihhea a manifesto from King William, thank :U ptci-le Jei tbe inuuaierabis ejrre Mens in favor of Gorman unity and iadepan denco received from all parts of Garmany, and even from America. The King pledges himself to act in accordance with the ex pressed wishes of the people for the benefit of the entire Fatherland, and for the eleva tion of its princes and people, thus conciliat ing all opposition. He concludes by saying that in the right and unity of Germany is a new assurance that the war will lead to dura ble peace, and to the completion of German unity and independence. Taris, July 25. The Journal Offirfd of this morning contains the following declara tion: The French Government has issued orders that in the prosecution of the war commanders of the French forces will scru pulously regard with respect the neutral powers, rules of international right, and that they especially conform to the principles of the declaration of the Paris Congress of 1851;, as follows: "Privateering is abolished. A neutral flag protects an enemy's merchan dise, except contraband of war. Mer chandise of a neutral, except contraband of war, is not seizable under a foreign flag. The blockade must be effective, although Spain end the United States did not adhere to the declaration of 1850. French vessels will not seize property of the enemy when such pro perty is the cargo of a Sranish or American vessel, provided it is not contraband of war. France w ill no longer claim the right to con fiscate the property of Americans or Spaniards found on board vessels of an enemy." The Journal Offkicl announces that the Minister of War has given instructions to commence putting in a state of defense and readiness for active service the old fortifica tions of Paris and forts beyond the present line of works. The Journal also reports that, in spite of the interdiction pronounced by the Government, certain journals continue to give news of military movements to the great detriment of the national cause. The Gov tmment had hoped the appeal made to their patriotism would be regarded. It will be a matter of regret if force shall be found ne cessary to secure the recognition of the law. London, July 254 P. M. The French base of operations extends from Strasbourg to Thionville, a few miles north of Metz. The centre is between Ritchie and St. Avoid. The second line at Metz is capable of ex pansion to the centre and to Thionville. Up to this hour no report of any general engage ment has been received here. London, July 25. The secret treaty which was projected between France and Prussia monopolizes the attention here of the public and Parliament. Intense indignation is manifested at the duplicity of the powers con cerned. The action of Napoleon is con sidered insulting to England. Ignorance of the negot-ation is professed at the l rench emba8y. A despatch from Brussels states that the ac count of the treaty projected between France and Prussia, w hich was printed in the London lanes this morning, is perfectly authentic. Tho Belgian Government knew of its exist ence a short time ago. London, July 2.. lne people of Prussia will observe Wednesday next as a day of fast ing and prayer, to propitiate Diviue Provi dence and invoke a blessing on their arms. It is expected the French fleet will attack Kehl. Eleven French frigates, steering east, passed Hastings to-day. French residents here are liberally subscribing to a fund for the wounded. Reports received from Miyence indicate that the Prussians are shifting their positions so as to lace southward. London, July 25. In the House of Lords Earl Granville, in reply to a question from Lord Stratford de Redcliffe, said he was unable to state where the limes obtained tho text of the projected Franco-Prussian treaty. After the announcement of the existence of such a remarkable document it would be the duty of France and Prussia immediately and spontaneously to explain the matter to Europe. Mr. Disraeli, in the House of Commons to night, after questioning the Foreign Office in regard to tbe reported treaty, denounced the Government for withholding the correspond ence on the subject. He declared England could never have tolerated such a proposition. The extinction of the kingdom of Belgium would be a calamity to Europe. He hoped the Government would give all the particu lars. Mr. Gladstone said he was sorry the papers were not ready for submission, and that he was unable to give the information required or explain how the project became public. Its purport certainly was astounding. Doubt less the powers implicated would explain the mystery. MARINE TELEGRAPH. For additional Marine New tee Urn Page. ALMANAC FOR PHILADELPHIA THIS DAT.
