THE BATTLES OF WEISSENDURG AND SAARLOUIS. The Prussians gave the French a full grown Roland, in the battle of Weissenburg, for their Oliver of Saarbruck. The last named engagement consisted in a compara tively trifling assault by the left wing of the French army upon an indefensible Prussian town, while the more recent Prussian victory was a bold invasion of French territory by men who apparently went to stay, and who, journeying ten miles east of the Rhine, stormed, captured, and held an important military position, Weissenburg, being a station on the French railway running par allel with the French frontier, and its capture preventing rapid intercommunication between the right and left wings of the French army. That this was an affair of real im portance is indicated, not only by the bold ness of the advanoe and the strategic value of the plaoe captured, but by the number and character of the troops engaged. The Prus sian force was commanded by the Grown Prince in person, and it consisted of the whole 2d Army Corps of Bavaria, in addition to two regiments of other corps, while the French forces defending the town, though in ferior in numbers, embraced an entire divi sion of McMahon's Corps. The victory of the former was complete, the Frenoh com manding officer being killed, his encampment and one piece of artillery being captured, and five hundred wounded prisoners falling into the hands of the conquerors. The moral effect of a substantial triumph like this will be a thousand-fold greater in Germany than the fanfaronade over the Saarbruck affair can possibly prove in France. Its military significance is also important. It proves that the Prussians are not content with mere de fensive operations. It makes a diversion on the southern line of operations that will give time and opportunity for massing a tremen dous array of German forces in the inline diate front of Napoleon. It breaks the Frenoh line of communication, and it shows the Emperor that if he risks too much in a desperate dash upon Berlin he may mean while leave open a favorable highway for a Prussian advance to Paris, v Meanwhile, however, if a dospatoh received this morning is entitled to full credit, Napo leon has followed up his Saarbruck affair by a demonstration of much greater importance. It is said that he has captured Saarlouis after a great battle. The significance of this achievement, if the report be correct, lies in the faot that the Emperor has made a suc cessful struggle for the possession of the railway running parallel with the strictly Prussian frontier. "We said yesterday that if a very great battle was to be fought soon, the banks of the Saar, on or near which Saarlouis is situated, was the locality most likely to be selected; and this opinion seems to be already confirmed. Further details will be awaited with great interest. They will probably indicate whether the Prussians have been so badly defeated as to be com pelled to fall back upon their great natural line of defense, the Rhine, or whether they will be able to make an effective stand at a point nearer their frontier, and to contest, inch by inch, every foot of the soil of their "West Rhenish territory. TEE BAD C0NDIT1 ON OF OUR NA VY. That the navy of the United States is not in auch a state of efficiency as it ought to be - from the fact that it is our chief means of defense against foreign attacks, is admitted upon all sides. For this condition of affairs no one person is responsible, and it is simply the result of general bad management, and a deficiency in practical knowledge on the part of those who have had the control of our naval affairs of late years. Since the breaking out of the Rebellion, in 18G1, up to the present time, there has scarcely been a single person connected with the administration of the navy who has been able to do more than institute the loosest and most uncertain experiments experiments based upon no certain facta of science, but wild, irregular, and expansive as the imagination of those who suggested them. ' Gideon "Welles was heartily abused during the whole time he was in office, and those who have succeeded him have en deavored to throw the whole blame of the present bad condition of the navy upon his shoulders. Mr. "Welles undoubtedly made a great many mistakes and blunders, but he is in reality entitled to more credit than he has ever yet received. It is true that very many of the naval vessels set afloat by him were found to be practically useless for service in foreign waters the chief Bervioe for which they would be required in time of peace but it should be remembered that these vessels were built in baste, to Bupply an urgent demand, and they were intended especially to operate in the shallow bays and tortuous rivers of our . southern coast. This service they did per form, on the whole, in a satisfactory manner, and they came out of the war prematurely --old from the rough usage to which they were ' necessarily subjected their timber strained and shattered by conflicts with the enemy, by storms, by being frequently ran aground, and by all the haps and mishaps of a long and terrible war. Taking all the facts of the oase candidly into consideration, it was soaroely to be expected that these vessels would be worth a great deal after they had done the work for which they had been specially constructed. The greatest fault tBat can be imputed to Mr. Welles is that he permitted snob, crack brained theorists as Isherwood to carry on costly experiments at the most critical period of the war and in opposition to the protests of those who thought that the times were not well adapted to the investiga tion of new theories on the expansion of 6tcam, when the efficiency of the vessels of the navy depended upon their being fitted ith machinery of the most approved design and construction. But whether Mr. Welles was to blame or not for the bad condition of the navy at the date of his retirement from office, the fact remains that we are practically defenseless against a sudden attack by a foreign foe. Since the present administration has been in power the attention of Congress and the country has repeatedly been called to the dilapidated condition of the navy and to the importance of increasing its strength. It is open to very serious doubt, however, whether the Navy Department, as now organised, is more efficient than it was under Grandfather Welles. The real head of the department is Vice Admiral Porter, and the first performance of this officer on coming into power was to in troduce an element of demoralization into the service by stirring up the old jealousies between the line and staff officers until they resulted in an open conflict. He next distin guished himself by renaming the navy out of "Tooke's Pantheon;" then he set himself to work to reduce the number of the euginee rs to such a low figure that their influence would not be great enough to make them ri vals of the line, and finally ho made the remarkable pro position to build iron steamships that in time of peace could be used as mail paokots and in time of hostilities be transformed to men-of-war. This last was a most extraordinary idea for an officer of Admiral Porters rank, experience, and presumed ability to set before the country. Daring the Rebellion merchant steamers of which the Vanderbilt was a favorable specimeu did good service as blockaders, as cruisers after suspected vessels on the high seas, and as transports ; for any other purposes they were absolutely worthless, and any midship man ought to be able to tell Admiral Porter that a properly-construoted gunboat would sink one of his iron packets of. five times her size inside of fifteen minutes, and the idea of such vessels being any defense whatever against the navies of Franco or England is too absurd to be considered for a moment. It needs no argument to prove tht the efficiency of the navy in ftie future must largely depend upon machinery and its proper management. In spite of this, however, since Admiral Porter has been in power everything possible has been done to cripple the engineer corps of the navy. Instead of sending out upon our national vessels a full complement of engineers, the plan has been devised of attaching only two to each ship, and of supplying the places of the regular assistants with men enlisted for the cruise as engine-drivers. This is the plan that was tried on the first introduction of steam ma chinery in the navy, and because it would not work a regular corps of naval engineers was organized. It is simply impossible to enlist competent men for this kind of service, and in every case in which the experiment has yet been tried the entire work of managiug the steam machinery has devolved upon the regular engineers. In this instance the en gineer corps, and with it the safety and effi ciency of our naval machinery, has been sacrificed to the jealousy of the line officers. If the Navy Department has not displayed any great amount of ability in the way of improving the navy, it has at least urged upon Congress the importance of making proper appropria tions for the increase of our naval force. It is not at all necessaiy, as Porter sug gests, that we should attempt to compete with the great European navies, but it is necessary that we should have a reasonable number of first-class vessels, both for foreign and home service. In case of a foreign war it is to the navy we must look for our principal protec tion against invasion, and it was simply criminal neglect on the part of the legisla tive branch of the Government that it re fused to give proper consideration to this subject. Two of the greatest of the European powers have suddenly be come involved in a gigantio war, and there is at least a probability that a general European conflict may ensue. It is a matter of the first consequence that we should at least have the means of preserving our neutrality, or of affording adequate protection to our com merce and our citizens in Europe, and it is to be hoped that the administration will be able to do something towards improving the navy, or that if the means at its disposal are so totally inadequate that nothing can be done, the President will .call an extra session of Congress to consider the matter. THE MARSEILLAISE. A Pai:is journal Bays that the Empress will issue a decree making the "Jlarsollaise" henceforth the national air of France. This is one of the most impudent pieces of hum bug ever attempted by a despot. For years the great national air of French freedom has been proscribed. The author of the coup d 'ttat did not dare to permit Frenchmen to listen to its inspiring straius. He trembled at its invocations to resistance against the tyrannies he was daily perpetratiug, and he cruelly punished every audacious utterer of its ctntral sentiment, "O liberty, can niau resign thee!" Now this persecutor of the "llarbfellaise," when he wishes to awaken martial feeling, baa it played by all his military bauds, in the hopo that it "will excite false expectations aud mistakon enthusiasm among his mercurial subjects, while he evidently intends to nse any viotories that may be achieved by their valor as a pre text for the re-establishment of personal gov ernment and for the creation of additional restrictions upon the freedom of France. The false trickster who is capable of such despica ble trifling with the patriotic feelings of a cation deserves to be not only defeated but despised by all just men. JornNALS or Farm.

LEADING GENERALS. Mineral de Pntlly. General Pierre Louis Achille le Failly, who is now commanding the 5th Freuch Army Corps, which, according to the latest reports, was be tween the Army of the Moselle under Bazaino and the Army of the Rhine under McMahou, and Lad Its headquarters at Bitchc, was born in the year 1808. lie received his military educa tion at the school of 8t. Cyr, and at the time of tie rcvolstion In 1848 was a llcutcnant-colo' ncl of a regiment of the line. As a brigadier- general he took part In the Crimean war and distinguished himself greatly In the service, especially in the battles of the Alma, of the Mamelon ert, aud of 1 rachtlr. After his re turn from this campaign he was made an aide-de-camp to tho Emperor, aud in the Italian war he had command of a division of General Niel's army corps. Iu this war he distinguished himself at tlie battles of Magenta and Solferino. lie was delected in 1807 to quell the Garlbaklian move nient, and In doing so made the first trial on n large scale of the C'basscpot. Iu his report on the working ot the arm he exprcseed himself as perfectly satisfied with its performance, aud noticed especially tbe wonderful manner in which it did service at Montana. General Failly was appointed commander-in-chief of the 3d Army Corps in 1809, and now has been trans fcrred to the 5th Corps. IHamhal Kandon, Jacques Louis Cietar Alexander IJandou is one of the old men of the French service, being qver seventy-five years of age. lie wa3 born at Grenoble on March 25, 1705. His uncle was General Mart-band, of the empire, and it was very natural that the then young Kandon should join tho army, which ho did at a very early age. As was the custom in those days, he received his military education in the ranks. Ho went to Russia with tho grand army, and was made 6ub lieutenant after tho battle of Moscow. On the return of that disastrous expedition, he took part in the battle of Lutzen, where he was seriously wounded. After tho final over throw of the empire, his well-known Napoleonic sentiments retarded his ad vancement for a time. During the hundred days when the former commander and Emperor was present lu France after leaving Elba, he sent In his adhesion to Napoleon, aud this act kept him In obscurity during tho rcsto ration. In 1830 the Government of Louis rhiiippe made him chef d'escadon, in ltJJiS appointed him colonel of Chasseurs d'Afrique, and the same years sent him to Algiers with his troops, where ho remained ten years, and dis tinguished himself lu defending tho French colony of Algeria, and in incessant warfare with the Arabs. While there he became lieutenant general, and held administrative office in the province of Bona. In 1848, during the short interregnum of the government of Lamertine, be remained iu Algeria and became inspector of cavalry. On his return to France in 1851 ho was appointed Minister of War, From this post he resigned a'ter a short service, and was then again sent by Louis Napoleon to Algeria as Governor-General of that colony, lie held this position at tbe time of the reorga nization of the colony in 1S58. In the Italian war he was a major-general, but on the resigna tion of Vaillant from the War Oifico in 185U, he was again appointed to the post, and as Minister of War remained in tho Imperial Cabinet until the peace In 1807. 1 he Croni Prince. A short sketch of the Crown Piiuce of Prus sia, Frederick William, only son of William I and heir to the Prussian throro, has already been published in our columns, but on account of the importance of the perouage a more com plete sketch will be of interest. The Crown Prince was born in 1831. At the ago of seventeen he was sent to the University of Bonn, and at the conclusion of the university course was recalled to Berlin and entered the army as a private, according to the universal custom in Prusnia, to pursue his military studies After a short service in the tanks he received command of a company, and from this rapidly rose to tbe grade of general. Ho was married to the oldest daughter of Queen Victoria in 1850, He took part In the Scbleswlg-llolstein war as lieutenant-general and commander of the 2d Army Corps. In this war he obtained great popularity with the troops. During the war with Austria he again comtnauded the 2d Arniv Corps, and took part lu the battle of Sadowa, July 8, 1800. It was the timely arrival of the fresh troops under the Crown Piiuce, after his cousin Prince Frederick Charles had been en gaged all day with the enemy, which decided the fate of the battle. In this campaign his chief of etaff was Major-General von Blumen thai, and he had uuder his orders three army corps, the army itself being composed of about 125,000 men. His march from Milctiu to Sadowa aud the scries of victories on cuterlng Bohemia established hU reputation as a commander. He is generally considered inferior to the Prince Royal in military knowledge, but is knowu as a soldier of courage ai'd ability, anxious for tbe welfare of his troops aud careless of his own trouble, but unsparing of his men or himself in tbe hour of battle, lie is In command of tho Northern Aimy of Prussia. A young man named Thickhead not long since gave a magistrate considerable annoyance at ban Francisco, by pretendlug that he had heard iiothln;' after that ollichtl had been speak ing upon the enormity of his otteu&e for nearly half u hour. He fiually grew impatient, acd ordered the man to be remanded. FROM WdSHUfGTOy. Ptntlntlr f I lamtnt ad NavlcatUa. Dfipatck to the Attociated Ym. WAsmsoTOx. Aug. 5.
