GENERAL WAR :TOTES.
The Bridge at Kehl.
The bridge at Kehl, says the Pall Mall Go
zeW,,no longer atiOrds the amusing spectacle.
it formerly presented, The sentinels who
mounted guard at each end of it are no longer
in their placeB. It vas curious to watch theml
pacing up and down their own Aare of the
bridge. Aline traced across showed the pre
ci,e spot which neither might pass ; and so the
two marched along—the one with the vivacity
of the Frenchman, the other with the
placidity and phlegin which belongs t 3 the
Oen:Lien. The sentinels often met in the mid
dle of the bridge; the Frenchman looked at
the Prussian and the Prussian looked at the
Frenchman, and each, without saying a word,
retraced his steps. Indeed there is no,;exam,
ple of these:slaves to discipline having:, ever
()tiered each other a pinch of snuff. One evelk.
lug last year, say s.a French:paper, the Prus
sian sentinel was . suddenly heard calling, " To
aims !" The frightened bystanders ran up and
found that the French sentinel had accidental
ly placid his loot beyond the line of demarca
tion; and thus invaded Prussian territory!

"The remarks the 4.) . lee.rtalor, of July
addresses a serious remonstrance to the
Queen for going to Osborne at such a time,
When Ministers are overworked, the weather
frightful to travel in, and events of the last
importance occurring every hour: Sapposing
circumstances to demand the despatch of a
fleet to Antwerp, the Premier must lose a day,
travel 220 miles, and exhaust himself with
fatigue in order to obtain the needful du
thbrizatiOn: Even When - Europe As
not at war, the interruption of
business is extremely grave. The Tempo
s-Rance is perfectly just, but of what use is it?
The experience of years has proved that Queen
'pertortn any duty, undergo any
tiat.'fifice ' bear any treuble for her people, ex
cept the duty, the sacrifice and the trouble
volved in residing where all MiniSters, all
members and all other great officials are com
pelled to reside. There is no remedy; except
to endure in patience a practice titter] ineon
ristent with the whole tenor of Her Majesty's
career."
English Sympathy.
'; We may." says the London Tirllft , of July
"lay dciwn a general principle—that,
taking the N't as a fact, and looking to the
fut tire rather than the past, it will be wise for
Parliament at least to keep itself free from any
appearanee of taking a side. It may, be Im
possible for individuals to refrain from sym
pathy with one combatant or the other: The
British Parliament represents at least as many
-ympathies as it does races and creeds. One
way desire the success' of our
gallant allies of the Crimea, and
be

hie Intervieiv at Etna.
The .31orktimj Post is "assured, on the au
thority of a later from Ems from a person on
whcse information it implicitly relies, that the
scene between the King and X. Benedetti,
-which the-public haire-generallybelieved to
-
bn the faith of some newspaper correspond
et-=.s, did tint occur -aiatkadds-: ." The - French -
Auitassador never addressed the King, and
His 31 aje never requested his aid-de-camp
to tell the bench Ambassador that he would
hold no further communication with him. The
statement of • King William, published yester
day, refers to the one and only interview which
ever took place on the promenade at Ems. It
was on the Vith the King, In the Kursaal Gar-.
dens, spoke to 111. Benedetti,And handed the
Cologne Gazette to him with the news of the
step taken by Prince Anton. Subsequently,
at a latter date, the French Ambassador
pressed for au audience, upon which the
King sent Prince Radzivill to decline it.
When M. Benedetti left, the King, accident
ally meeting him on his road to the station,
saluted him courteously, and the personal re
lations between the Monarch and the French
representative were never otherwise than ex
cellent. The story of the outrage offered to
the King, and the snub to the Ambassador,
may therefore be relegated to the list of the in
genious compiler of " the history of facts that
never took place."
G. neral Chancarnier.
Many of the Paris papers having stated that
General Changarnier bad tendered his ser
vices during the pending war, and that a com
mand was to be intrusted to him, that gallant
General has sent the following letter to the
principal journals.: , " Many, papers. . have an
nounced that General Chaugarnier had so
licited the honor of ° serving in the war
about to commence. They were rightly
informed. I have besought and en
treated Marsha] Leboeut', the Minister of
War, to give me a command, Although re
ceived by the Minister with demonstrations
of the warmest sympathy, my request has de
tiuitively been rejected. It is. to m(3- a deep
sorrow, which 31. must endure in my country
home. But our valiant army has so many
able and experienced chiefs, that the absence
of an old patriot will not he felt by it. Our
soldiers, our dear old soldiers, will be every
where victorious."
'.:Explosive 8u11et5..............
[CorrespondOnce of the Siecle, from 31; ,, 6., Julyl9.)
There is considerable talk here about the
explosive bullets of the Badish troops. You
know that. Baden refused to sign the agree
ment by-whichOand, France, Prussia and
Russia bound. themselves not to use these ter
rible instruments of destruction. Prussia has
played her game wit!). her usual perfidy; she
signed the agreement, it is true, but she or
dered her vassal, Baden, to keep clear of it,
so that, the Badish 'troops marching with her,
she will be able, despite her signature,to make
use of the 40,000,000 of explosive
balls accumulated at Rastadt, thanks
to the diligence of that little
Grand Duke who keeps in motion the
roulettel of M. Dupresoir. Rest assured that
the French Government is not ignorant of
this little matter, and will take its proper pre
cautions. To the Prussian explosion will be
opposed the French explosion, and that will
demonstrate again the value to be placed on
agreements signed in time of peace. Prussia's
conduct is indefensible. Up to this time the
first principle of war consisted in reducing the
enemy to an incapability of action. Projec
tiles wounded oftener than they killed, and
the object was,attained. But with the ex.plosive
Inflicts; no more wounded. Every man hit is
killed. Prussia has committed the crime of
high treason against humanity. She should
_be_outlawed_by all Civilized nations.

NAPOLEON IN LONDON.
EC Reminiscence of the Lmperoloo "Loaf
.
Jug Days."
A writer in the Louisville (Joni tiCereicel relates
the following bit of narrative :
- "in 1448 Europe was convulsed with inter--
ut] dissensions_ w and revolutionii„„Tticaiotithon
- pirWer ak tembling in France. and the
• nephew of his uncle' was loafingin London,
infiinting-localitiesWbere — he; met men: and
women of unquestionably ba&character. He
watched, undoubtedly. with • considerable in
terest, the progress of the Chartist party in
London, day by 'day 'grOWlng More bold and
tioublesome. Perhaps in' his dream of royal
honors he foresaw that an experience of mobs
and riots might be advantageous to him in that
tuture of which he never despaired. , Hence
lie wandered about,an observer orthe element
which, in 1818, was occasioning the •English
eovernment no little uneasiness and trouble.
When the Chartist party mustered in that
year, and announced their intention of march
ing to Hyde Park fifty thousand strong,rnmors
of violence and riot stirred the heart of the
great city. •
" The Bank of England. to which every
Englishman looked with solemn awe and res
pect, was to he attacked and pillaged—the law
was to he trampled under foot, if the demands
of the party were not considered.
" When that day came London sureed and
heaved, and the tory loyalists mustered to he
defence of law and order in great numbers,
and became, for the time being,sworn officers
to preserve the peace. -
' An old gentleman, now an assistant asses
sor of internal revenne in this city, was then
the head teaoher of a parochial school in the
hamlet of Ratcliffe Stepney, in the eastern
art of London. His school, with others, was
dismissed for the day, and a magistrate swore
in the teachers, and every man in the neigh
tiorliood who would volunteer, as special con
tablh s, to asSist in preserving law and order.
Scores of volunteers were Mustered
e- and order
ed- . rte .- _ reinfezvous • in— the school
building of our old friend, who was directed
ro assume command of the specials. Among
the' men under him that day was one Louis
Napoleon, then a reputed lounger or loafer
about London, now the Emperor of France.
He was well known at the time, and by his
dignified bearing attracted the attention of his
tellow-specials ' who were net acquainted with
his person. His dreams of future greatness
%%ere so -unreal that few regarded'him more
than the 'dissolute, rather worthless nephew
of the great Bonaparte. •
"Fortunately the services of the specials
under command of our old friend were not re
quired that day, arid at six o'clock, when all
possible danger had passed, the trustees or
dered a lunch of bread and cheese and porter
for the whole command , . Napoleon, with the
rest, enjoyed the lunch, and was shortly after
at liberty to leave the neighborhood."
EVACUATION OF ROME.
Cardinal Antoneili Bids the French De.
part in Peaee.
The Roman correspondent of the Allgememe
Zeitung says that the French ambassador, M.
de Banneville, has banded to Cardinal Auto
nelli a note from his government relative to
the occupation of Civita - Vecchia by French
troops. In this note the French government
states that it has been urgently requested by
Italy and other Powers to put an end to the
French occupation of Rome, and that before
giving a definite answer to those demands the
Duke de Gramont, thinks it necessary
first to consult • the Holy See,
as the most interested' party,: on the
subject. Be therefore invites Cardinal Ante
nelli openly to state whether there is any
ground for fearing attacks on the integrity of
the Papal territories in the event of a with
drawal .of_the _French.- troops,_in_ order_that_
France may be enabled to take ati accurate
view of the situation and re t ulate her • olic
in pens ng questions accor, I ingly. To ti siT
Cardinal Antonelli replied that complete
peace now reigns in all parts of the Papal
States, and that, the Papal Government has a
force - atits - disposal - which is - 'more-than BUB.- -
cient, both to prevent any disturbance of pub
lic peace in the interior of thecountry,and to re •
pel all attempts at Garibaldian had Mazzinian
invasions from without. The Cardliaal con
cludes bt observing that although, if the Pa
pal territory were attacked,either by regular
troops or by volunteerth directly' or indi—
rt
rectly support br , the &lien government,
they could ,easily be dispospd of by the
Papal militia, each a campaign could not fail
to disturb the public peace, and thereby en
danger the object of the French occupation.
The Cardinal hopes that no such event will
occur, even if France were to withdraw her
troops, and that no seriou.s danger, to the
reare of the Papal States and tho security of
the Holy Father is to be apprehended.
CHARLES' DICKENS.
Will of the Great Novelist.
The will of Charles Dickens is published in
full in the London papers. It is described as
having been written in blue ink on a sheet of
ordinary letter paper. The main body of the
text was evidently copied from the careful
draft of a competent legal man. A provision
of the interest on eight thousand. pounds for
life is made for Mrs. Dickens. To Miss Ho
garth lie gives eight thousand pounds and all
his personal jewelry except his watch (" the
geld repeater presented to me at Coventry"),
which, - with " the Chains and seals and all y ap
pendages, " he bequeaths to John Forster,
who is also the legatee of, such of the manu
scripts of his published works as remained in.
his possession at the time of hii . death. To his
eldest son Charles he bequeaths :his library. Of.
printed hooks and all his engravings and
prints. For the other. legacies, " Miss Ellen
Lawless Tetuan, : late of —Houghton place,
Ampthillt3quare, in the county of Middlesex,"
receives one theusand pounds, and all the ser
vants who hate been in the family for one
year have nineteen guineas each. In a codicil
the property in All tlie•Year Roiviiit is given to
" Charles Dickens, the "younger," a -designa
tion of his son which would seem to imply
that be desired this-gentleman to assurnesuch
a title, rather than " Charles Dickens, Jr.," 'in
like manner with the younger Colman.
After having fully expressed his intentions
in legal technicalities, Mr. Dickens concludes
his last will and testament as follows: ..
"And lastly, as I.have now set down the
form of Words which my legal advisers assure
me are necessary to the plain objects of this
my will, I solemnly enjoin my dear children
always to remember how much they owe to
the said G6orgiana Hogarth, and never to be
wanting in a grateful and affectionate attach
ment to her, for they know well that she has
been through all the Stages of their growth
and progress their ever useful, self-denying
and devoted friend. And I desire here simply
to record the fact that my wife since our sepa
ration by consent has been in the receipt from
me of an annual income of six hundred
pounds ; while all the great charges of a An
trierous and expensive family have devolved
wholly upon myself.- - .1 -- emphatically direct
that I be buried in an inexpensive; unostenta

PIZETOST-PAIL&DOL:

An editorial article in the ondon Tintet, on
the suicide of M. Prevost-Par dol has this fi fin 1
paragraph : •
" have spoken of M. P adol as he was
—a prominent power in the p ities and litera
ture of France; but we vann t deny ourselves
the privilege of recording our more personal
relations with him. We may so far depart from
the custom 'will& happily distinguishes Eng
lish journalism as to acknowledge that the
powerful criticisms on French politics from 'a
Parisian correspondent,' which appeared at
weekly intervals in our columns until a few
months. since. were contributed by 31. Paradol.
It is not for,iis to dilate on the merits of style
and " the''fO r tce 'of thought which adorned
essays' still fresh in the memo
ries "of .Our readers. They showed
his singular mastery of our language, and that
knowledge of our institutions which enabled
him to illustrate his judgments on the affairs of
his own country by references to ourselves.
Ells gifts and graces, his natural energy and
his acquired treasures of knowledge and
thought are now lost, and lost, under circum
stances that must ever perplex and sadden us.
Suddenly; in the full plentitude Of his powers,
when yet at the threshold of life, having barely
accomplished forty years, he has taken himself
away from us. We cannot but mourn such a
catastrophe, whatever judgment we may he
compelled to pass on the act that produced it
—if, indeed, M. Paradol were master of his
reason at the moment when he terminated his
earthly existence."
COTTON AND THE WAR
Effect of the Contest ilpon the Staple.
The Macon . (Ga.). Dully Journal says :
This is a question which is now a , itatiurr
thousands, - says the St. Louis Demor•A, We
claim no infallibility of prophecy, yet we feel
strongly impressed. with the :conviction .that;
the question - sfieuld be answered in the
affirmative. Of course no account is to be
taken of the first perturbations in markets,
winch become apparent at the outbreak of a
gigantic war. These are more or less the re
sult of panicky , feelings, often purposely in
tensified by market manipulators, and give no
indication Of what the permanent state of the
market may be. Now, as far as regards the
status of cotton, during, the war we reason that
the demand for fabrics will be fully as great
throughout the civilized world as if the world
enjoyed peace.- Our own experience has
shown that war times are'periods of waste,
and we presume the same improvidence will
attend the operations of the contend
ing armies of Europe. We expect, there
fore, au augmented demand, and an
increase in the price of cotton rather than a
closing of the factories and a serious decline,
as many seem to fear. . This country will be a
neutral, and run every loom, lathe, forge and
furnace she possesses to the fullestcapacity, if
the war is of even six months duration, and
the prospects are that it t will be •of much
greater lengtli, Should all Gerinany, Russia,
Austria and Italy, Denmark and France, be
drawn into the war, millions of men will be
engaged in destroying fabrics as well as lives,
very rapidly. These fabrics must be replaced
promptly. Soldiering is destructive to clothes,
_as all sOldierS,wellimow.and the raiment thus
worn out ,'must be manufactured somewhere..
England ' will ;do j s large part of' this mann-,
acturing,. and. will deinaia increased , quanti
ties of cotter' to do it with. We shall also do a
large Sbare of it; . and' Our hoine consumption
will be muok,larger than it has been since the
war. In short, we cannot -- see - auy - reason - for --
supposing that cotton will decline while other
produots willadvance.

Courier says z . .

[From the tan Ftan6l4ce Alta California July 25.1
We mentioned, a few days ago, that the
stage robbers who had committed so many
depredations on the Los. Angelas stage route
had been arrested by citizens at' Nativicled.
who found it- necessary to' form a - vigilance
comrilittee for their protection against robbe
ries perpetrated in that place and vicinity.
and that Captain Lees, of the dkective force,
with detectives Johnson and Noyes, bad gone
:-ouch after the prisoners. They returned to
this city yesterday, bringing with them
the three reen—Francis t 3. Claughton,
Thonias Selby. and James L. Burns—who are
at present locked up in the city prison.
Claugbton and Selby were found,in charge of
the authorities at Monterey, but Burns had
been turned' loose. - As the detectives held a
m arrant for his arrestn
, and from' informatio
in their possession, believing him guilty of the
crimes with , which he is charged, , they at once
made inquiries as to his whereabouts,. and
started iu pursuit— 'Different routes were
taken, so as to make Ids escape impossible,
but it was only atter they had traveled' ninety
'five miles, to Pluto, that he was , found. 'He
was at once arrested: --These Tutpins operated
extensively, it - .appears,-::.within, the past
few months. Their arrest arose . from
their haviug, on several occasions, stopped the
stage of Wells, I:ergo & Co.„ and carried off
the treasure-box. The company , having deter

cash-box, in compliance with their request, he
was allowed to proceed. The robbers carried.
oil the box to a creek convenient, where they
broke it open and pocketed its contents, about
with some letters.
On the Ist of the present month the stage was
again robbed about a mile and a half from the
place of the other robbing, by two men ou
horseback, to whom the box was delivered as
before. On the 7th of July Wells, Fargo
Co. sent down._Detective Noyes, and in six
days hegot on the track of the robbers in San
Luisa Obispo county, about fifty miles. from
the place where the robbery had taken place.
Following them up he reached Cambria,
where be found that a vigilance committee
bad been formed--by-citizens-for protection
against an organized gang of robbers who had
been running off stock and committing
other depredations. He- ascertained - the

MAIIIIF&CTURED ENTKIISIASIM.
How the War Spirit is Aronsed in Party.
The correspondent of the London Daily
Newt,, writing from Paris on, the 18th July,
thus speaks of the manufacture of p - opular en
thusiasm by the imperial government and of
indications of a counter sentiment arciong the
people of Paris:
" I have heard; that the Prefect of Police has
spent no less than four hundred thousand francs
within the last four days in . payment of the
bands employed to howl :for war in the strects,
of Paris. The patriotic' demonstratioU is
now considered to have gone 'far enough, for
at eleven o'Clokc lastuight the Prefect issued
proclamation - (which has already workod
wonders) stating . that, after the •!! first
explosion of the national sentiment,'- it
was desirable that the streets . should resume
their usual Gallia and orderly aspect. The great
expense of keeping up the demonstration, and
the fear of still - more serious - trays' - and - - disor•
dens than those. which have already occurred,
are not the_
- only motives for the Prefect's ex
tinguisher upon enthusiasm. There have been
counter manifestations, the repetition', of
which it was desired to prevent. On Satur
day evening as - many as five thousand people,
carrying - a fla,g, marched. in:. a body Crying
Peace? The Figaro, alluding to this circum
stance, asks that-the proclamation may only
be 'put -la - force against: and
that the • sound ' part of the population should,
as heretofore, he allowed to manifest their
glorious sympathies without impediment."
A HORRIBLE DEATH.
