The Monde says that five well-trained gunners have been assigned to each of the 3,000 guns mounted in the Paris fortifications. An ample supply of ammuni tion is also provided. . London) Sept. 2. Princo Frederick Charles yesterday thanked his troops on the battle field for their gallantry. The fourth army, composed of landwchr, has also distinguished itself. Paris journals all publish letters from cor respondents to-day, corroborating the news previously published of successes to our arms. The Prussians, however, are so numerous that battles must be resumed on a vast scale. Both sides have received heavy reinforce ments. It is rumored here that the King of Prussia is insane, and has been taken to Berlin. It is reported here that a large French army, under command of General Douay, has en tered the territory of Baden. In Brittany recently 72,000 volunteers par took of communion in tine day, on the eve of enrolling themselves in the army. It is said here to-day that old people, and wo men and children ofStra'sburg have been enabled to leave the city by means of a subterranean passage in an old cloister recently discovered. The Council of State at Paris think of fixing the price of bread and provisions, owing to the rapacity of dealers.' ' Calais and St. Pierre are to be put in a com plete state of defence. Paris journals demand the dismissal of Gen eral DuFailly, whose management of his corps d'armee betrayed great incapacity in the re cent battle. . . ' Dispatches from Arion, dated yesterday, say the fortress of Mezieres and Sedan will occupy the attention of a large force of the Prussians, if any attempt is made to besiege them. French journals call attention to the fact that although the Prussians have much to say of the battle of the 80th, when General Du Failly was repulsed, they make little mention of that of the 31st, when McMahon repulsed their left and centre. The Prince Imperial is expected at Meau- beuge from Avesnes. A fleet of gunboats is gong up the Seine. The banks of the river are covered with ex cited crowds, who cheer the fleet as it passes. Paris, Sept. 2, evening. Uncertain and contradictory reports circulate regarding tbo movements of the armies and the recent bat tles. Count Palikao, in the Corps Legislatif to-day, declared he had received no official news from McMahon or Bazaine, and had no communication to make to th'e Chamber. At the Bourse, and in all circles here, f ears are expressed that the French soldiers have been outnumbered, but dispatches received via Belgium represent that McMahon has been (successful, and that Bazaine,, having received full supplies and provisions and ammunition, occupies a good position. It is believed that lighting has been going on all day to-day. Paris, Sept. 2. Journals state (that the reported insanity of the King of Prussia is confirmed. It is proved that it was not the array of General Douay which entered Baden territory, but a large volunteer force. A number of Germans were arrested to-day tor non-coinpliancti with the order to lead's Paris. Thiers has not appeared in tbo Chambers for two days.' He ill. In the Corps LcgiBlatif, to-day, the Minister cf the Interior submitted a proposition that officers and sub officers of the National Guard be elected from amongst former soldiers. Tbo measure was declared urgent, and was adopted. Deputy Cremienx proposed delay in the payment ol commercial ellects for two months instead of one month, as already provided for, which was also declared urgent and adopted. The Bishop of Strasburg is reported to have died yesterday. The J'ttyn makes a demand that the Cham bers separate until after the war, owing to the fact that too much time has been taken up in useless inquiries which disturb and impede the action of the government. William II. Russell writes that last week nothing could possibly have checked the Prussian advance on Paris, but now that the fortifications have been enlarged and strength ened an entrance there is hardly possible. The cholera lias extended into southeastern Russia. The urgency of the Prussian advance is as cribed to her anxiety to reach Paris before the new rifled naval artillery, which is now con centrating from the fleets, could be moved into position there. Experts regard those guns as murderous weapons. Lo.NitoN, Sept. .1. The French Emperor, attended by Nelaton and other eminent svir geons, is now with Marshal Bazaine. The French troops which engaged the Prussians at Attigny were reinforcements which left Paris on the 27th and 28th of Au gust for Marshal McMahon. They were con veyed by rail from Paris to Rethel, and marched then to Montmody. Notwithstand ing these troops were fresh, they were routed by the Prussians. Paris papers notice angrily that Prussian victories strengthen the London stock market; also, that Prince Humbert, Crown Prince of Italy, and his wife have congratulated Prussia on her successes. The Paris correspondent of the Globe vouches for the truth of the following report: A gigantic battle has been in progress since Wednesday morning, near the forest of Ar gonne. The following dispatch from the Em peror reached the Empress Thursday after noon: "All goes wonderfully well. Our plans all succeed." The Examiner says: "If the mad policy of 1814 toward France, a policy of partition and repression, is intended, the safety of Europe demands fliat France be guaranteed against dishonor and dismemberment. It is to hoped the Czar wiU interpose to preserve the balance of power." Berlin, Sept. 2. The following is an offi cial report of the campaign from the com mencement up to the battles around Metz. On the Cth of AngnsJ the first Prussian army found itself between Saarbrucken and Saar louis, facing the second French corps occupy ing Spicherm heights near Saarbrucken. The 14th division attacked as the French were preparing to leave on trains, and was supported bv the 15th division and some portions of the second army under General Steinmetz. A bloody victory was achieved, and 3000 prisoners captured. Proesard retired from Forbach to Metz, leaving his baggage, private stores of champagne, pontoon train, camp kitchen, &c. Meanwhile the 1st corps moved on Mets, waiting for the second army, which had to lay a railway track as it went along. On the Hth of August the first army was placed thus: the 1st corps, with the 2d division, near Ktange, between Metz and Boulay, with another division near Conrcelles, between Metz and Avoid; the 7th corps, with the 13th division, near Pange; the Hth division near Donnaville; the 8th corps in reserve near the village of Yionville; the 3d divi sion on the left wing near St. Bar be, its 1st cavalry near Frontigny, the advanced post close to the French line, scarcely a German mile from. Met., whilo the main body was encamped on the bankB of the Nied. The enemy had occupied with considerable force the small watercourses between Colomby and De nomilly. The movements of the enemy about four o'clock led to a reconnoissance. Knergetic resistance was encountered. The ene my developed great strength, and General Man teollel.of the 1st corps, and General Zastrow, of the 7th, engaged promptly, General Galtz's bri gade, of the 7th corps, in advance. The tirst divi elon&dvanced towards Colomby, and was soon in volved in a very violent combat, but maintained itself until Oaten 'h brigade came up, fronting a force far outnumbering it. General Zawtrow ar rived at five o'clock to the east of Colomby, taking command in chief and advancing the whole corps. At six o'clock all of Gluraer's division was en gaged, maintaining itself with difficulty against a superior force. At seven o'clock K amok's division wag concentrated at MarseiUy. At that uiomantoix batteries were engaged, with others in reserve, to extricate and sustain Glumer and Zastrow. At sis o'clock Woynae's brigade was sent to attack the enemy's right, near Colomby. The brigade, with splendid bravery, drove the enemy, enabling Usten's brigade to occupy the wood on the north of Colomby. The 27th brigade remaiued intact as a reserve. At about 8.30 the enemy withdrew at all points. In the meantime the 7th corps, with the advance of the 1st, advanced under cover of cavalry near to the roads connecting Avoid with Metz. The corps opened the attack with the latdivision near Mout bois,and the 2d near Nolsseville. The enemy in force attempting to advance on the latter point were re puked In force by prompt service with the corps artillery and by the reserves of infantry. Darkness closed the tight on the extreme left. The 1st division of horse approached Mercy-le-Haut, their battery advancing, with pauses to tire. The 3t;th regiment of the Hth corps, belonging to the left wing of the second army, had advanced on the east in the same line. At the extreme right the 3d division of cavalry advanced to Ogg, where its battery opened on the enemy north of Perigny. At eight o'clock the enemy recoiled at all points from the left bank of the Moselle under the guns of Metz. Pursuit was stopped by the fire from the guns from the fortress. The field was covered with dead, A few prisoners were taken, and few trophies. Owing to the activity of the fortress, the heavy fire of whlah tore through the Prussian masses, General Steinmetz, who came in, was in time to give orders for the night and the following day to prepare tor a renewaiof the conflict. The result was that the enemy in one quarter was driven from the wall back into the fortress. In another quarter a large body wa left to retreat on Paris aud fall Into the hands of the second army, which was mov ing rapidly on the west bank of the Moselle, leav ing the 1st corps and two divisions of cavalry on the eat of Metz, the army next day moved to the left without resistance, passing the Moselle at Aiey and Caruy. On the 17 th the corps was beyond Ars-sur. MoseMe, the 8th and 9th corps at Gorza, while the second army was marceing rapidly toward Metz on the Verdun road. After victorious fights at Vlonville and Flavlgny the task of the first army this day was to act as the right of all lines of attack, holding the left bank of the Moselle, while the second army moved so that the first would extend from northward east, thus bringing the first aud second armies between Mets and Paris. On the 17th, no offensive movement was made, the Prussians resting near Gravelotte, the 7 th corps contenting itself with repelling a slight re- coniiolssance near tne forest or vaux.At this ino-y rnent uenerat bteininetz, reconnoitring at tne south of Gravelotte, in the forest of Oguottl, dis covered the enemy, three corps strong, encaumed on the heights, north of Gravelotte. arms of St. llakjrt and Point-du-Joure, were occupied about noon. General Steiumetz hearing a cannonade at Yionville, and having been advised that the head of the mb corps was engaged, gave orders to resume the attack. The 7 tb corps deployed on the south and east of the heights ol uraveiotte. A formidable artillery practice followed. Fifty cannon, presently aug mented to eighty, opened on the enemy's batteries. while advancing steadily along the high road, wa a mitrailleuse, when tire wan opened on the recon noitering party. A strong outpoet, well sustained, was placed. The eneinv made no serious attack that day. On the 18th the first army remained quiet, the enemy equally to, while the second army advanced to Yionville and Marie-aua-Chre U renew the fcM tip bill. RtPimnefi n Ms fl rf itiained bv the batteries, under a alio"-)!- ol projcrilps, but hardly bad an hour pawed elore the French batteries f:rew silent and the P noli began to retire. The nfantryof the 7th corps, in ttie meantime, rented in the woody eorge between Gravelotte and Point-du-Joure, bnt Galtz's brigade, posted near Ars to guard the Moselle valley, was already engaged in combat. It took the village of Vaux and the heights of Fressy, where it sustained itself. , In the meantime the 7th and 8th corps coming from Reaonvtlte opened an attack with heavy ar tillery practice, while the first division of the cav alry took the first sheltered position behind it, and the infantry attacked the enemy In the wood of Genevans acain. The enemy's guns were silen '.ed, while the infantry encountered an obitinatj resist ance in Genevaux woods, where the tight continued tor hours. Owing to the density of the wood the hostile forces intermixed, and the Germans ami French frequently fired into their own ranks. Emerging at last from the wood, the PrtiHflians carried the heights and farm of St. Hubert with severe loss A farther advance was Impossible on this side. The French artillery was withdrawn, and the PriiMiau became silent. Abont three o'clock, supposingthe enemy gone, Steiniuetz ordered Hartman's cavalry to cross the defile, with two horse batteries and the 4th uhlan", and pursue. This was ell'eoted at four P. M. Th i pursners found that the enemy had not retreated, but were sheltered from the cannonade by the troops which had ad van red. Our men encountered a murderous fire from chassepots, cannon and mi traillenses. Dead and wounded instantly cumbered the roads. The Prussian batteries soon reopened, sheltering the cavalry. The duel continued till dark, when leaving a force in the field, the Prus sian main body fell back. At four o'clock in the morning the Prussian ar tillery reopened, the French replying until silenced. At the left, between Yionville and Arman Ylll cers, infantry fire alone was beard at first, but soon artillery began, showing the approach of Prince Frederick Charles. The German infantry held firmly, awaiting the support of artillery, and kept the enemy busy. The French, all day, used the chasepot from trenches at 2'2i)0 yards, indicting dismay and severe losses, but they were neverthe less, in a desperate condition, being surrounded and attacked on all sides, their only chance was to retreat to the fortress. At reven o'clock in the evening they made one more effort to cut through our lines to Paris. Line alttr line of riflemen, firing over each other's shoulders and shouting wildly, rushed from the heights to a ravine, through the trees. The Prus sian infantry, thinned and weakened, wavered. The moment was critical, but the artillery provi dentially opened and hurled baeJc, with slaughter, the assailants. The Prussians then assumed the offensive, Heinforreroents happily arrived, the King having approached and dispatched the Pome ranians, that had never becnunder tire, to the front. Its aid was decisive. Hushing forward and tiring, it carried the heights, winning the day. On the l!th the enemy took refuge in Met.. MARINE TELEGRAPH. For additional Marine Neu tee First Fag.

Captain Winnetfs theory of the accident is that the ebbing tide let the hull of the steamer down on a rock, staving a hole through her bottom. The consignees (J. o.
