NEWZM CORRESPONDENCE! YANKEE LAND. A Pennsylvanian's e - Ac re count of a - - 1/isit Th • ; • ; 10orreirondence of the :Phila. Eventruz , B In these days, dear BuLLETTN,ef many let ters from Enrope.and ether . foreikri parts, will it be admissible to insert in, yon spirited and ngreeable columns 0U unpretentious sketch of a brief visit to Yankee land, - and the impres_ filen made thereby on one unaccustomed to travel,but who, nevertheless, when he travels, does it with eyes wide open ? Taking it for granted that you will, for the sake of variety, submit to the infliction, we will begin at " the beginning," not exactly aftef the formula of the cooks'when giving jou a recipe, " Take your pam"eto., but somewhat similarly. " Take the PennsylVania . Central Railway " with us Ar.,'near the centre of our ,6 o'clock A grand old State, fly along a fast as steam and rails can carry us' over that much-traveled and well-conducted railway ; passing Philadelphia by way of Germantown, Mant etc., we soon \reach the bridge across the Delaw. re at Tren- ton, and proceedatoing the western part of the State of New Jersey, through the beautiful cities and towns of Trenton, Elizabeth, New Brunswick and Rahway, and about 1 P. M. find Ourselves among a jostling crowd at Jersey City. Inexperienced travelers, like ourselves, un willing to be thought verdant, watch closely the movements of those sufait in the manner of crossing the ferry, and are soon passed through a little wicket, one by one, and,taking the Desbrosses street ferry boat, we' are speedily wafted across North river to New York, where, amidst .hurly-b urly. and confu sion, the crowd separates, Some going one way; some another, without one thought for the time being of the probable destiny of any of their previouS fellow-travelers. "Sich is Wei" We, following our directions and un willing to diverge-from them, soon found our selves on board of the fine steamer City. of Lawrence, with the intention of diversifying our route and escaping the - dust and nausea of railroad travel by a trip up the Sound. It being half-past two P; M. whensve ensconced' ourselves upon the boat,aud the time of its de parture being appainted.at five P. M., the in terval of two hours and a half was to be occu pied as best as we could devise ; but there are so many objects of interest offering to the un traveled that a vivacious mind can find plenty of entertainment in its surroundings, and time passes g_uickiv in contemplating tho changing panorama. The City OT Lawrence is one Of the NerWich line of steamers, and one we can only recommend to the wearied traveler. Bandsomely _ furnished, __neat,_, ,clean._ and of course*eomfortable state-room, well pro -Sided and well cooked meals, obliging and attentive servants, are among its advantages. , At five P. M. we steamed up the river, passing ' • Governor's Island, Bedloe's Island, Black well's Island and Fort Schityler—the first and the last being particularly interesting to us, having been the posts of dear friends during the recent war. We looked earnestly at them until we were out of sight and until the gath ering darkness and our own weariness ad— monished-1w that- we ,snight.sas_swell try_ the potency of our dear little beds; yet regretfully leaving the boW of the boat, for we fain would has e seen all of that beautiful approach to the ocean-Long Island Sound. Taking . posses sion of our state-rooms, through the direction of a lady-like colored stewardess, we speedily made-our preparations by the light of the well lighted saloon for passing the night, being specially careful in the adjustment of our life preserverii, in case of sudden emergency, and committing ourselves :to His keeping who rules the winds and the waves, we resigned ourselves to the soothing influence of " tired nature's sweet restorer," and everts - 13 - 6cm - ots livious of all else than• rest, sweet rest, until the sudden stoppage of the vessel at five A. ' }l. revealed to us that we had arrived at our point of deliarkSticin; Norwich, Connecticut. Norwich (or, as the people there name it, Nifirridge);ltisTly Nnrridge Dittyou - ever - visits it, dear BULLETIN? If you did not, let as advise you to do so forthwith, and take--our.. word for it, you will not regret it. It is city and country together, or rather a city of beau tiful country residences. Situated on the Thames river, which is navigable to steamers only thus far, its commercial facilities are very great, but with true New England taste the business is confined to three or four squares near the wharf, leaving the remainder neat and orderly. To see this beautiful city to advantage the stranger must get beyond the business part, and wander along their shaded streets, completely embowered by over reaching elms, and he will soon fancy himself in Elysium. Do you want a model fir a house? Go to Norridge. Do you want to know how to build economically, yet attrac tively? Go to Norridge. You will find all there that you need. " From grave to gay, from simple (pardon my using my own word in stead of the author's here) to severe." Do you want to see a city whose order and disci pline are so perfect that fences or railings are not necessary to protect their lawns ? Go to Norridge. No animals being allowed to traverse the streets, precautions against them are not necessary. We asked a friend whose hospitality we were enjoying : " How is it about the. boys throwing stones, and the children generally depredating upon yank, ete."—reruembering bitterly our own expe rience at home on that score. He replied : " "We know nothing of such things." Truly, we thought, this must be the Garden of Eden some back again. N orwich has also its celebrities. Rif: the birth place of " Ike Marvel," and within a neat en closure alongside of the old Homestead, from whence issued, no doubt, "The Reveries," etc., stands a noble granite.monument erected to the memory of " The Last of the Mohi cmns," With this simple inscription on one side: Uneas." In another street is the birth-place Benedict Arnold, and as we looked at the old well from which he drank when a boy, we thought how much better would itnave been Tor himself and others if he had then stuak,be— Leath its waters and nevermore seen the light; but,according to Calvinism,be was a necessary part of the Revolution. Our visit %MS too short to see much of the society of Norwich, but this we know from observation, that where there is so much taste and order displayed there must be wealth, culture and refinement. Farewell to Norwich and may we live to see it again. Leaving Norwich by the Hartford, Provi dence and Railway.at t o'clock A.M. ' we arrived at Hartford about 11 A. M., which is also a beautiful and prosperous city, but our time was too limited to do it justice. We availed ourselves of a subsequent visit to take a glimpse at Mrs. Colt's (the Revolver Colt's. widow) beautiful domain, and we were highly gratified/thereby. it is at the foot -of Main street, and embraces an area of three or four miles. Tier mansion, though not very beauti ful, is quite castle-like in appearance, sur rounded by beautifully laid-out grounds,where there is everything that wealth can purchase or taste devise; and while you gaze at the ex quisite works of art and nature combined, you involuntarily exciafin, " What is there left to wish or hope for And really, after all, our happiness consists much in expectancy, and if we have all we desire, there is nothing to anti cipate; but, nevertheless and notwithstand ing, it must he very convenient and mighty pleasant to be able to get all you need and just when you need it. _..J._ - Froutißartford we proceedealto-Ctillinsville, ia pretty little thriving village, celebrated for its axe factory, which supplies the country, in a great measure, with axes. The next place that pleased our fancy AWLS Winsted, Litch— fi eld county, Connecticut. Approached on every side by railways, there is yet another in course of construction, the Connecticut w. N . 4 ,_ erii; wbich, so far as our knowledge on the ,titthjeet . extends, is designed to count-ct w i th the i .DtitCbeSs _and Columbia, in the State of ,New yoli, and thus afford a continuous route liy th b C W .rongonnecticnt to Boston. in. ,13butilc,,son of the late Goyeraor:S hunk; - of 4,,ntikylNania, is, the chief engineer of this mach and in distinguished not only as n civil engineer, but in his character as a man, having 2, modest opinion of his own *abilities, and placing implicit trust in his fellows. The soul of honor himself, he believes firmlyin thein tegrity of OtherA, and, unfortunately, for bun,: is often! deceived. Winsted is a thorough.._ New England village. Romantically situated,• "and rural - in Sts_surroundings, it -is ! ye 4. a , :busy manufacturing place, Yand, ,go lyttete: `yon ; will; you hear the:l whirr .of •! ma chinery and see the evidences of thpft andinchistry. One of its greatest attractions:: is'a natural hike, land at the:altitude of-about: two hundred feet above the town, on,a very' high hill. It is called Long Lake, is about Jive miles long and from half a mile-to a mile wide. ' It is sboreless, shelving down abruptly as if it might ,have. at one, time been the crater of a volcano. It is of unknown depth, having been sounded one hundred and fifty feet with out touching the bottom. It is surrounded by high mountains, and at one part is in reality a miniature sea, and so great is the solitude around you, no vestige of human habitation being visible, that, yott feel as though. you . might be' entirelycut off frOin the rest'of the' world, and Were in tealitYlhousands of miles away from the busy haunts of men. While we were enjoying the plettsure of a delighttul' row upon its slightly-ruffled surface, we Won dered to ourselves that some graphic pen had q ncit made :known the beauty of this natural ,curio,sity. It is not surprising to see such a 'body of water at a low level, but one does not expect to see it on top of a small mountain. After sojourning for' some weeks in this land of want to knots"—" Du. tell"—we turned our faces homeward again. Taking a small steamer at Hartford we steamed three miles doWn the Connecticut, where we took passage on the State of Now York, which on ' account of the shallowness of the river was unable to get up any higher. This boat is magnificent in its proportions and appoint ments, but is not equal in neatness and solid comfort to the City of Lawrence. It is much more pretentious,making its own gas on board, which is of poor quality, and conveniently goes out at ten o'clock, leaving the passengers to grope their way to their state rooms as they May, and without any alternative but to make the best ofit: We said to the steward;or man chambermaid, after we had ineffectually applied to him for a light, " You may be very grand on this boat, but you are not half so comfoitable as the City of Lawrence. Neither does it compare with the latter boat in speed, and instead of arriving in NeW - Yor at five o'clock in the morning, we did not get there - until eight, leaving us scarcely time enough to :reach the Central New Jersey Depot, where we were to take passage on the ferry boat and from thence on the Central New Jeisey railway, passing over the, bay of N ew 'York on rails-placed upon through Newark, Elizabeth and Philips burg, and just opposite the latter at Easton, Pa., taking the Reading railroad, the route being through Bethlehetn,Allentown and Leb anon, and through the rich and fertile Lebanon valley, we soon found ourselves in the heart of dear old Pennsylvania, with her flourishing stored barns o comfortable homesteads, and felt that though we admired the push and thrift of New Eng land, yet we gloried in the wealth of our own - dear - State. And now,good friends,- W-43 will take our final farewell, hoping that we have not wearied you by our lengthy details of what we saw in ],NILE LAND. A ILIARRIAGE At a time when we hear so much of the troubles of distressed gentlewomen and the necessity of their " self-help," it is satisfactory to find that some of them are helping them -selves; anCOWas - are beinglielneff medium of the British Matiiinonial News and Special Advertiser. In the number for the 9th instant, there are ncileSs than eleven' and a half columns of advertisements for husbands or wives-or, - rather, from ladies - and - - gentle- - men who wish to "correspond" with a view to matrimony ; every facility is offered-to thorn for-the purpose by the editor, who.informs his readers that when a ladY and gentleman de sire to correspond they must send their names and addresses in confidence to him as guarantee o onorable intentions - afid - gtio - d. - _ faith, when he will put them in correspond ence on condition of receiving a fee'. They are further informed that all introductions are given on the understanding that the gentleman shall pa 3 a fee to-the - editor-within--a month-- after marriage. The advertisers, as a- rule, seem-- to -_::be singularly good-natured people, merely anxious to marry and not caring very much as to whom they select. They are all numbered, and any person wanting a husband or wife has only to refer to the number and open the negotiation. 572, aged 20, " sou of a barrister, desires to marry, provided he can find au amiable and loving • wife of congenial disposition. He has been educated on the Continent, possesses au income of 1:300 a year, and would appreciate a cheerful, happy home, with a true-hearted wife, who would find him a very good-natured husband, as well as en chevalier .ans pour et sans re ' prude. Would be bappY to communicate with 505, 557, 1870, 150, 536, 33, or 530. Editor has his address." 1844 is a "rising solicitor, aged twenty-six, dark, good-looking, with long whiskers, and who will have considerable pro petty at his father's death; wishes to corres pond, with a view to matrimony, with a fair and accomplished lady who has £4OO per an num* at the least. Carte to be sent in confi dence to the editor." 623 is a marvellous man. He describes himself as "a gentleman, edu cated at engineering colleges, and works to the country and on the Continent; civil and ruilitaiy. Aged twenty-eight. Height, 5 feet 72 inches. Light brown hair and whiskers; blue eyes; an athlete; member of scientific societies, and holding responsible professional appointments;-entailed property in his own right after relatives' decease ; affec tionate and fond of domestic life ; wishes to meet with a nice-looking gentlewoman, well educated and connected, of thorough Christian principles, and whose views agree with Far above rubies' in the Christian World May«- zinc. for Aprl and June; height about 5 feet 7 or more ; dark complexion, and with au income of not lesi than £2OO a year. She might, if deSirable, add -part of this to the Capital of en gineering Works in which he is interested, with interest guaranteed thereon at 71 per cent. It is considered that, on being married, his pro fessional duties and income therefrom svill gradually increase, independently of her property. A widow need not answer this. References to theologians, solicitors and medi cal advisers. Photogeaph and full particulars exchanged. Editor has address." 0 1012 is " a young lady," aged twenty seven, without fortune, rather short., considered winning and attractive, plays and sings, thinks she could make a kind husband happy ; one not younger than herself, and a teetotaller preferred. Editor has address." 0,51 is a gentleman who says he has "a poeti cal e 3 0, an amiable temper,and a strong beard, tl ough turning grey." 3:18 is "a young widow lady. ninet ee n, highly accomplished, tall, fair, consiared beautiful, and of independent means, wishes to Marry a young nobleman or gentleman with not less than £5,000 a year;" and so on ad infinitten. It is altogether a cu rious publication, audit is impossible to read it without feeling to a certain degree alarmed at, the evident determination of the advertisers to' be married to somebody and at the possinle censNuetices which , may ensue if they, find r-themselves.:.unableitoi carry out their-Vvishes, , 'nine can be no doubt that the sooner they marry the better, and there seems to he no good reason why they should not all marry each other without further advertisement; un - - , less they cannot afford to pay the fees to the editor.

Tyranny ;” she deprecates the title of it novel '1 for it, and says: It is no novel at all. A no*el- in our days is a three-story affair; a conipliated, complex, multiform composition, requFing,:..rio n end of scenery and ' dramatic persontn,";Atitt plot and plan, together with trap-doors, pitfalls, Wender; ful escapes, and thrilling dangers; and the scenes transport one all over the earth, to Eng land,.,ltaly, Switzerland, Japan and Natut scbatka. But 'Pink and White. Tyrann* is a little commonplace story, all about one man and one woman, living Straight. along in one little prosaic town iii:NeviEngliind. It is to run 'rough five or six; numbers 0/d and New, And end, with 'a' Moral; and, lest you should not find:outwit:4 the naoralls, We shall adopt the plan, , of the painter, who.wrote under his pictures, 'This is a bear,' and -, This is a turtle-dove.' We shall tell you in :our last number succinctly just what the moral is, and send off edified as if you had, been hearing a set mon. So please to call thislittle sketch a parable, and wait for the explanation thereof." We will venture so far to mutilate Mrs. Stowe's creation as to make a short extract : FIZO.II".PINK AND WHITE TYItA2 NY." "You may read that letter," added Miss Grace, wiping her eyes, and tossing her brother's letter hito Miss Letitia's lap. Miss Letitia took the letteic and read it. "Good fellow!" she exclaimed warmly, , "you see just ahat I say—his heart is all with 'you." "Oh, John's hetutt is all right enough !" said Miss Grace; "and I don't doubt his love. Ile's the' best, nohleSt, Most affectionatel fellow in the world.

But if .she really loves him—" --A'shaW! she don't. - That kind of woman can't love. They are like cat's, that want to be stroked and caressed; and to - be petted, - and to lie soft and warm, and they will purr to any one that will pet them—that's all.

From the article by Edward A. Pollard, en titled "Political Literature in America," ye exit act the following estimate of TirE - - LlTEraltr - sTANDnzIi - OF THE IIEVOLL:= The Revolution of 1776 L-in which the Colo nies proclaimed then independence in lan guage as vast and impressive as ever before prefaced the arms of any contest—showed to the surpriseof .the. world, the great advance which America had made in political affairs. We do not propose here to refer elaborately to tLis demonstration as ene of progress in the principles and ideas of/political science,—its extraordinary discovery of truths in the phi losophy of the rights of man in advance of the age ; that is a distinct wonder. We only design to regard the literary aspects of the greatest event in the history of America. These aspects were at once novel and engaging to the European world. A country supposed to be rude, which was generally thought of on the other side of the Atlantic as presenting a coarse struggle of early settlers with savages; w Lich as yet had no general literature of its own,—these wild " plantations" were found suddenly to produce men who wrote state'pa pers in the English of Addison and Junius, who gave lessons of classic eloquence tO Europe, and who rivalled the most cultivated statesmen and orators of England in the choice.and vigor of the language in which they took issue on the profoundest questiOns of government. It was the time when Jefferson, " the Pen of the Kevolution," illustrated the most difficult virtues of literary style ; when henry 't spoke as Homer wrote:" and when Adams, Dickinson, the Lees, of Virginia, the Rutledges, of Carolina, the then youthful, but already wise, Madison, and others little less notable, adorned the revolutionary council,and presented the picture of a Congress of a new country, summoned on a sudden occasion, as sembled without ceremony, having no ele ment of aristocracy whatever in it, and thus making no partial representation of the wis dom and culture of the nation, yet eqital in the , dignity. of its discourse to parliaments of the olileat powers of Europe. Nothing could be more significant of the interest of this discov ery and of its power of impression, than the tribute which Lord Chatham paid to the Con- uress at Philadelphia. In the House of Com- MODS in 1775, on.the occasion of making his motion for the withdrawal of the troops from Boston, this generous and appreciative states man of England made the following 'extraor dinary speech : "For myself, I must declaie and avow, that in all myyeading and observation—and history has been my favorite study—l have read Thucydides, and have studied and admired the master states of the world—that for solid, ity of reasoning, force of sagacity, and wisdom of conclusion, under such a complication of difti cult. circumstances, no nation or body of men can stand in preference to the General Congress of Philadelphia." At the same time, in general literature and arts, America; so , far from obtaining the commenda tion of Europe, was held up to scorn for the poverty of its genius.

KEYSTONE PURE WHEAT WHISKY' Distilled from the Grain By T. J. MARTIN & CO., kEYSTONE DISTILLERY, NORTHWEST CORNER OF Twelfth and Washington Streets. STORE, No. 150 North Front Street, PHILADELMIA,PA. To whom u may concern: All the leading medical authorities recognize the value of diffusive stiruulents. Numerous eminent physicians end surgeons might be named who have advocated their employment in the treatment of a large class of die orders. No Dispensary is considered complete without them. Th. y are prescribed in all public and private liospitals,a.nd administered by all bedside practitioners. But the difficulty has been to obtain Alcoholic Liquors Pure. The pungent aroma of the fusel "oil and biting acids pre,ent in all of tliem can bo scented 'as the gime is raised to the lips. The nauseous flavor of these active poisons Is perceptible to the palate, and a burning sen sation in the stomach attests their existence when the noxious draught has gone down. Paralysis, idiocy, in sanity and death are the pernicious fruits of such pato- Bons. Medical science asks for a pure stimulant to use aa a specific, which, while it diffuses itself through the eye• tem more rapidly than any other known agent, Is brought into direct and active contact with tho seat of di/Rase. It is the property of the stimulant to diffuse and by the aid of its peculiar nutritiouscomponent parts to invigorate, regulate, counteract and restore, and it is by the' happy union of the principle of activity with the principles of invigoration and restoration that enables a PURE. WHISKY To accomplish beneficial results.

BELLIN, Jtily 3L—The Unzeiger publishes the circular addressed by Bismarck, on July 2i, to the representatives:of Prussia at the Courts 'of .neutral powers. The document gives the following expose of the secret negotiations be tween Prance and Prussia: Before the 'Danish war," says Bismarck. "the French legation at Berlin urged an alli ance between France and Prussia, for the pur pose of mutual . aggraudizement. France, an ticipating a war with Austria, as a consequence of: the. Danish war, made overtures relative to the restoration of the Luxemburg frontier of 3:- , t4, the acquisition of Saarburg and Landau, while a broader settlement of the boundary question on the basis of language was not to be excluded. These instances in May, 15613, took the form of propositions for an alliance offensive and defensive, the manuscript orginal Of which is in the Foreign Office here. These propositions are as follows : • First. Should a congress of the powers as semble, Italy is to have Venetia, and Prussia the Duchies. Second. Should the congress disagree, an al liance,..ollenslye and . defensive, is to be made between France and - .Prussia. Third. Prussia is to open hostilities against Austria within ten days after the dissolution of the congress.:, , Fourth. Should no congress meet. PruSsia to attack , Austria within thirty days after the signature of the present treaty. Fifth. `Napoleon to begin hostilities against Austria as:soon as Prussia begins despatching :301.),00U men.during the first month across the Sixth. No separate treaty shall be made by either power with , Austria when the joint treaty Isnuide. The following are to be the conditions : First, Venetia to go to Italy; second, Prussia to select German territory at will for annexa tion; the number of inhabitants not to exceed 5,000,000 ; souls ;the territory thus acquired to become part - Of 'the kingdom of Prussia, with out federal .rights; third, France to have a liberal share of the Rhino provinces; seventh, military - and maritime alliance to be made between France and Prussia, to which Italy xnay be a party should she so desire. This programme, the circular says, was re jected in 1860, in spite of the continued urgency of France. • The proposals were incessantly re .newed; with the !modification sacrificing Bel ...gium and South Germany, but•they.were never seriously entertained by Prussia. For the sake of peace, however, it was thought best to leave Napoleon to Ifis delusion. No word implying approval was retprned. Time was counted on to -revolutionize , 'and -extinguish the scheme, and hence the long delay and .silence. -------Tlfe=fittemptagainst-Lkuxemburgalling Trance repeated her former propositions, nailing the specifiCations clear in regard to the :acquisition of Belgium by France .and South G ermany liy'Prussia; -- ' -These - lait - propesitions 'were formulated by :Benedetti himself,'and it is improbable that he wrote them without au- thority of the. Emperor, as they are the same which were made: four years afio under a threat of war as the alternative of , their re fusal. Any one'aCcivainted . with their antece (lents must have known that bad Prussia ac quiesced "in the -. seizure Belgium, - Franco 'would:soon IMO; 'found another Belgium in Prniginit territory.. PAIUS, July 30.—Emile Qllivier, Prime' mmE*NAvorlmw , 4,l, Minister, had an interview _yesterday with the Principal editors of Paris, during which he ex plained' the, position of the government on gverS,F questions relating to Prussia. He ve the same explanations of the secret treaty project that. Count Benedetti had pre vionsly given. , Relative to tireJneasures taken by Cabi net some time ago to effect a general disarma ment, he said those efibrts wore merely inter mediary to those of the Earl of. Clarendon, and for a like purpose. Bismarck 'replied to the Earl of. Clarendon that King William refused absolutely to disarm. 14. 011ivier said be gave the honor of his parne and that of his col leagues that no ofibr was made to Prussia other than that made by the Earl'Of Clarendon. On the BomanYquestion 011ivier said it has seemed equitable , and. useful to the French Government to evacuate Ilome—equitable be cause Italy has, kept her promises, and useful E becausekeepinour promises unites us more clarely to Italy and Austria. PARIS, July 30.—The Journal Officiel of to day priblishes Count Benedetti's e.xplanatrou of the secret treaty affair. It is well known that Bismarck made France an offer, both be fore and after the war with Austria. The sub stance of the offer •was that• France should take Belgium as a compensation for the aggran dizement of Prussia, but the Emperor in all cases declined the proposition. The very moment the treaty of Pratte was concluded Bismarck again betrayed hi. desire to restore the equilibrium, and made several, proposals looking to combinations affecting the integrity of States bordering on Franee. During one of, these conversations Bismarck dictated to Benedetti this secret treaty, the prefect which has just been made public, and which Bismarck has kept ever since. This ac counts for its being in the handwriting of 13en edetti. Benedetti gave notice of •the contents of the proposed treaty to •the Emperor's gov ernment at the time, but- the proposition was promptly rejected. Benedetti adds that the King of Prussia was not favorable to Bis marck's plans. PAms, July 31.—A Spanish note, couched in strong language, demknding an explanation of_the recent expressions of the Duke de Gra rnpnt regarding Spain and = the - Cortes, has been received in Paris. French journals of this morning say that, the Prussians have 300,000 men at Treves, 100,000 in the 131aek Purest, 200,0.10, near Maymice, - - . 100,000 In SlbleSijg,• • and' 80,000 ficafb :Berlin. The triangle between Treves, Al4enCe. and the river Lauter is well-filled w itb soldier's. BILICLIN, July 00.—At a mass-meetingleld at Cologne to-day an address was adopted to the King of Prussia, Germany,- and German Americans. especially those of Louis, ex-L -pressive of thanks for their aid in this impious war. The addresS rejoices in the proclamation of Abelo_ve _of fatherland by„thei Germans in no land great for its deeds, for the life of Wash ington and the death of Lincoln. The address, which occasioned great enthusiasm, concludes as follows: We are still one with fatherland. Awaken your enthusiasm against Cesaristu which ex tended to Mexico, protects the hand of revolu tion, and which drenches the glorious Rhine Ini.d with blood. For such love and encour agement-We extend our Bands. Trite Germany, - crur common fir-other. - Ameriat, - -bright daughter of Liberty.

It is resorted that the skirmish - of July 21.1 gave some idea :of fire comparatiie merits of the needle gun and chassepot, though, owing to the shortness of the affair, the test was nOt complete. The Prussians commenced to tire at, a distance of t--. 00 metres, and their fire fell short by 100 metres.

Belgium has 100,000 men in position. The English home force is now only 60,000 men. The South German States announce their adhe sion to the Geneva Convention, so far as re lates to consuls. It is now thought that the Prussian army proposes to cross the Rhine from Baden into France near Huningen, two miles north of Basel. There is much activity in German military circles to-day. The French press, regardless of politics, praise the Emperor's address to the people. The prices of breadstuffs and other articles in Paris are nearly the 'same now as on the eve of the Austrd-Pruislan war. LoxnoN„July 30:---The French army is placed as follows; The First Corps, under Mar stn.' McMahon, at Strasburg ; the second Corps, under General Frossard, at St. Avoid: the Third Corps, under Marshal Bazaine, at Metz; the Fourth Corps, under General Count L'Admirault, at Thionville ; the Fifth Corps, under General De Failly, at Bitche ; the Sixth Corps; under 'Marshal •CaiirObert,; a,t - ChalOnS; the Seventh Corps, under General Douay, at BelfOrt ; the Eighth Carps, under General Botirbaky, at army . headquarters. BEI:LIN, July 31.—King William, on leaving for the army, issued a manifesto, in which he declares that he goes to fight for the honor of Germany,and calls upon the whole nation to rise as one man. The King also grants full amnesty for political offences.
