The interest in the affairs of.our consinstGerman bas been increasing for seine time, and even as much as two or tbree weeks agO reached such - a pitch that-an"enthusiastic full of beer and patriotism, undertook to raise a regiment for the Prussian service, and dis tributed posters announcing his intention all over town; but, up to last night, the only man enlisted was the individual who started the movement, and who was unanimously elected Colonel. _ ' • . , PAs,..Ailtust 9:—Gentral Vein corn- y is in co nmimication' with MacMahon. The morale of the army excellent. There . has been no fighting since - the 7th. In the battle Of Frosch wilier 14.0;000'of. the° enemy attacked 33,000 Frenchmen under MacMalion. The Ministers have addressed the following proclamation to the Parisians: "Our army is. concentrated. The new ef fort has imparted to it fresh hope and con ' fidence ; but agitation hero will lessen the moral force of the army and act against it. Paris is rising. The French army will be between two fires. We prepare for the defence of .Par;is. The Deputies will co-operate with us.. Let all good citizens help to prevent disorder. Those who wish will have arms furnighed them and will be sent to the front at once." There have been two councils of the Ministry to-day. The Jourhal (Vicki contains the following notices and decrees : Minister Washburne was received yesterday by the Empress for the purpose of delivering the reply of President Gratincithe letters re calling Minister Beitherny. ' ' The following was telegraphed from Metz yesterday at 10.15 A. M. : " The corps of General Failly, which was not engaged-in the recent actions, is the rallying point of the army. It has not been disturbed. MacMahon has executed the movements pre scribed for him. Thi re has been no engage ment to-day." The Minister of the Interitir has taken mea sures ,to have despatches bulletined ab the Bourse: and the Mayoralty nouses.

Independent, of- the "Seine, where that^organization is the strong est, it has already given proof of devotion and patriotism which cannot. be changed by the circumstances through which we are passing. On demand of the Minister Of War the Pre fect of the Seine this morning charged the en gineers of the Municipal Guard with the.execu lion of plans for strengthening the fortifications of Paris. The service will be organized at once, and will be divided between three chief engineers and eleven assistants. Each chief will be in charge of an arrondissement. PAMS, August. Liberte publishes the following account of the scene to-day about the hall of the Corps Legislaltf : At IP. M. groups formed before the hall, and soon there were more than ten thousand persons -assem bled. The people were calm and unarmed. There were, however, shouts'from time to time of "A Las la Frame !" and " Vire la France ?" Deputy FerrY,who appeared, was received with shouts, and commenced an address as follows : "Friends, be calm." At this moment Marshal Baragnay D'Hil liers arrived, and the. officers of - the* National Guard and others surrounded him. Then there were Amid -cries of " Vice- Changarnier" and "Five la France!" The crowd was increasing all the while f and shouts were heard Of "%rive Rochefort!" from the electors of Belleville, who bad come to the scene to make a demonstra tion in his favor. At 2P. M. the troops of the line mere ranged_ aronndthe_ball, as were also _ a squadron of cavalry. They were received by the crowd there with cries of "To the frontier ! To the frontier !" Circulation was stopped on the bridge leading from the hall, and the commissary of police made the legal summons for the people to disperse.- The-cav alry at once broke into a trot along the streets, and the crowd withdrew, still shouting:. At a: late hour a detachment of Grenadiers of the Guard came up, led by a general of division, and were received by the crowd with shouts of " To the froutier.''

But little'notice was taken of the announcement until the news' of victory, which came yestdrday,' "fired the German heart," and an extra, which' appeared during .the forenoon, containing a bogus-despatch -to the effect that the French army had surren dered, and.that.the.Prussians were.in hot:l:slur snit of it (i), wrapped the Geiman. heart in an unquenchable conflagration. The Philadelphia evening papers failed to confirm the extraordinary intelligence, but were received too kite to have any effect on the war feeling—by this time thoroughly roused— and when the Sangerbund appeared, headed by a handpand marching-4n procession to the flail, its progress was impeded by a crowd per fectly immense foi Pottsville. At the Hall an unexpected delay occurred, by reason of an inability' to make the gas burn. Something was wrong about the metre, and the united efforts of the superintendents oldie hall and of the Gas Company failed to produce a glimmer. The hall- was half filled with Germans, who sat quietly smoking, talking, laughing, exhibit ing the best humor and decorum, for half an hour, when a dozen tallow dips were procured and disposed on the stage to the best effect per missible by the circumstances. About the same time a strong smell of gas be gan to pervade the premises and a voice cried out of the depths.: "Now light her up." :The difficulty had been - overcome, the suspected French synipathizer was foiled, and in a moment a flood of light streamed from the chandeliers and a flood of Germans poured into the ball, until it was filled almost to suffoca tion. Then the meeting was called to order, a man got up on the stage and commenced making a speech in High Dutch, while another distributed copies of a poem written during the day by a Pottsville lady whose 210111 deplitine is "Gula Meretlitir." A president and three secretaries were, then e ected and about halt' the assemblage made vice presidents; after which there were a number of speeches, and, sanawiched among them, another poem, also written during the day and expressly for the occasion, by a gentleman who has written much better things. Resolutions of sympathy and encouragement for Germany in general and Prussia in particular were next in order; the most practical ones being that " the Presi dent of this meeting shall name a number of those present, who shall at once open subscrip tions and receive contributions, which shall be applied to aid.and alleviate the sufferings of the Germans 'wounded in this war, and of the destitute widows and orphans of those who fall in this conflict." “Resolved, That the officers of this meeting, together with such gentlemen as this meeting may select, shall form a committee to take charge of the funds now or hereafter to be collected, and to see to their proper applica tion.” Then the meeting, which had been very en thusiastic throughout, dispersed with three parting cheers and a tiger; but adjourned meetings were held in every beer shop until a late hour. As soon as the war excitement has died oat sufficiently to give us a chance, we shall turn our attention to politics, as the political caldron is beginning to boil furiously. OT R WILMINGTON LETTER.

The streets and roads were filled with joyful people, who waved flags, covered the King with flowers,. and cheered wildly. Bismarck, Roon and others addressed the people, and thanked them for the King. The losses of the French in the battle of Woerth on Saturday were 5,Q00 dead,wounded and missing, and 6,000 prisoners ;J0ta1,_11,900... Alacliabon's baggage, many cannon, and two long railway trains with stores and munitions of war were captured., The -Prtissian cavalry in their pursuit bagged thousands of stragglers who had thrown away their arms.

LONDON •Ang..o.—[Spedal to the New York Tribune]—French diplomacy is striving to re trieve the disasters to French arms. Strenuous efforts are making for English and other inter vention in--the-Emperor's favor to - arrest the Prussian march and secure allies. Our correspondent in Paris writes on Mon day last: "From what I hear of the feeling among the people and army, I think it more than probable that Napoleon will never re enter Paris. The army is sick of his amateur generalship, and probably he has already been forced to resign. His factotum, Le Bu'nf, will also retire, and Bazaine \rill command?' The statement in the Gazdois of a secret al liance between France and Italy, and an ex pected reinforcement of 100,000 Italian troops, is certainly false. No matter what the King may have promised, the troops would not march to France. Bismarck, before leaving Berlin, was asked whether, if successful, Germany ought not to insist on Napoleon's abdication, and replied, "No! Germany can only fight for German ob jects, and not for French." LoxnoN. August 9.—The Pall Mall Gazette has advices from private sources in Paris that the Empire is on the verge of collapse. The Germans are expected in Paris, and even if they are arrested, the Empire is dead. The Parisians are seeking arms and they are all republicans at heart. The establishment of a provisional government is already talked of. The Orleanists, through Generals Changarnier and Trochu, are in the ascendant and several Imperialists are leaving France. The Minister of the Interior has issued a proclamation announcing that,according to-the terms of the law of 1849,. on declaration of a state of siege, the military authorities have a right to interdict all publications of anature to excite or keep up disorders; and as such a prop osition as that made by the Saele, to institute a committee of defence, tends to anarchy, and compromises unity of action,and creates useless agitation, on the advice of the Council of Min isters it is decided that the military authorities shall apply proscriptive measures to any journal renewing such propositions. The Republican and Democratic journals advise the immediate meeting of the Corps Legislstlf and arming of the people. They all censure strongly thee disorders which have taken place in the streets, and counsel calm ness and moder.ition. • 'There is great activity in enrolling volunteers m all parts of the city. Thirty-three thousand workmen are strength ening the fortifications, assisted by twenty thousand sailors from the navy. LONDON, Aug. 9.—Authentic advices from France show that Bazaine, commander-in chief, has 150,000 men at Metz, MacMahon 50,000 at fiauverne, and Canrohert 50,000 at Nancy. General Troehu has entered on the duties of major-general of the army. It is not known whether Leboalf will have any com mand. LoNnos, August 9.—ltSpecial to the N ew York herald!,]—A despatch from Carisruhe, dated to-day, says that Strasburg 'is surrounded by an army of 60,000 Prussian troops, mostly f rom &huh germany, and the city must sun , render, as the garrison is composed of only %MO soldiers. An advance of the Prussian right from Saar louis and Treves has commenced. It is sup posed that Prince Frederick Charles is in com mand. The Author of i'Vontly Volr. l l. I . [From the World, Aug.?.

THE BAPTISM OF .A.NOTILER ROYAL GRAND DAT:6 }ITEM In the private chapel within the castle, at 4 o'clock on the 20th, the infant daughter of their Royal highnesses, the : Prince and Princess Christian of. Schleswig-Holstein, was baptised. The sponsors 'were her Majesty the Queen, their Royal liihnep.ses the Princess Louise and the Duchess of. Cambridge, their Serene Highnesses Prince Edward :of Saxe Weimar end Prince Widdernar Sehlestig-HolStkin thd Duchess of Roxburgh as proxy for her, Se rene Highness Princess Augusta Of Schleswi ,, 6 - Holstein ; Prince Arthur, Prince Leopold, and Princess Amelia - Of Schleswig-Holstein. THE QUEEN'S GARDE:kr PARTY. For several weeks past the public has been indulged with full particulars of the lavish preparations being made for afite cleampetre, to be given at Windsor Castle immediately on her 'lajesty's return. Superb were the pa vilions erected ; everything was to be in the open air; no preparations were made against rain—was not her Majesty always sure of g , Queen's weather ?" besides scarcely a drop of rain had fallen for weeks, and rain was fer vently desired. The -" Garden Party" . could Lard}}. be called a luncheon, as ,the guests were invited- from 4.30 until 7—too late for luncheon, too early for dinner. It was a " Garden PartYi" let that-=suffice. for—Lunch-- was ex .. pected of this royal experiment. The day came (yesterday), and to the consternation of the royal hostess and the invited guests, with it- came , — the „farmer's ' longed for showers, - beginning -at 'early -. morning -and never clearing away until about six o'clock. At seven the guests were expected to go home ! The Queen had no alternative but to welcome her guests in the state apartmenst, all of except the l'resence Chamber, were thrown open. Every one loOked rather drag gled and moist, and. woe-begone, and the gene ral dampness certainly was not thrown off un til the first rays of sunshine, at (; o'clock, in vited the prisoners forth. No lovelier and no grander spot exists in England than that on - which the Queen's pavilions had been raised. Beautiful in itself, it commands a prospect of unbounded beitity ; and not to have been able to enjoy it to the full upon an occasion so long anticipated must have been a severe dis appointment to the guests, who had confi dently calculated upon "Queen's weather." The Prince and Princess of Wales and other royal guests left the castle at 7.25, and drove to the railway station in open carriages. "All's well that ends well!" The rain was over, and MISS LAYNEII The highest praise, the highest honor, is due to Miss Rayner for her brave, strong, efficient conduct in taking the command to help the wounded. She showed that she had the nerve, and yet the womanly tendernes.4 and knowledge and skill that was needed to make her bear mental torture unmoved, and accomplish a no ble work for the alleviation of others. MRS. CHARLES DICHEISS has been seriously ill since the 'death of her husband. We hear that she has been attacked - with convulsions, which has occasioned her friends great alarm. Her sister, Miss Hogarth, and Miss Dickens, her daughter, have called upon her, and been received. During her hus band's lifetime all intercourse between her and her sister,aud, if we mistake not, her daughter, had ceased. The sons sided with the mo ther, while the daughters continued to reside with the father. Iler son Charles dutifully took rip his residence with his mother. Much Sympathy is felt for her. . QUEEN ISA BE LLA . S ABDICATION As a loving mother, Spain's. sons are all c-qually dear to me," was truly an unfortunate little burst of affection for a retiring sovereign under the circumstances. Ilow could her ex-Majesty hope to escape the comment "no doubt a good many of them are dear, and with striing, reason?" The fair Isabella is said to have been as gay as her dresses while going through - her - abdication . : She wore - a peach colored silk, trimmed with the most superbly rich white lace and : diamonds, and appeared to be in excellent spirits. While the ex-Queen '.vas attempting, with Inconsequent hands, to fit a crown upon his head, the young Prince of .Asturias was wholly engrossed by a new ve locipede, which had just been presented to him. Small chance has he of having his bycyCle converted into a throne ! "LA PERICHOLE."

A CalCiiita correspondent writes oh this sub ject as follows From-all the accounts we receive here it ap pears to be tolerably certain that. Sir, Ruther ford Alcack's commercial engagements with the Chinese government will not be ratified at home. So far as India is concerned, this is a result to be desired. Even without his unto ward assistance there is very palpable danger impending over the opium revenue of this coon try.' What the real -- aim'of , the' Chinese gov ernment is I do not profess to be able to de cide. Their avowed intention to foster the cultivation of oplainat-hontie Until the Indian trade is destroyed, and then to strangle their own, by this means - enforeitig - total abstinence, may be what they. sincerely. intend, but I take leave to doubt it. It 4,1 suspect, but a wily mode of 'holding a candle .to the devil, and of securing on groundi of the loftiest morality, the fullest profits derivable from immorality, Admitting, fioWever, that the CliineSei govern merit is really sincetein , its aim, I question very much vhetherlt is - -attainable. During the proposed . process the Chinese revenues would reap an 'enormous harvest, ever in creasing as the Indian trade failed ; and when the first act was completed and China grew - all her own opium, it is at least open to doubt whether the then govern ment would retain a-sutliclency,of Its- pristine virtue to cut itself off from a source of wealth which, by that time, it would have come to look upon as an all-important element of the finance of the country.. Moreover, as, on the removal Of an 'restriction on itiecinsumptionthe nation . - al taste for opium already so strong, would have been vastly stimulated, it is, to say. the least, problematical whether-the people would or could forego the ifse.of the drug.. But be this as it may, the fact remains that the cultiva tion of opium in China is already very great, and is rapidly increasing, . and that the drug locally produced is not far inferior to Indian opium, and can of course be sold at a cheaper rate. With this local recognition of opium, the old argument - as to the immorality of the In dian trade disappears. It will be necessary, therefore, for the Indian government hence forth to fight China in her own markets, and whit e raising the largest revenue from opium attainable, to keep the price at which it can be sold in China so low as to prevent competitidii from other quarters, and if possible to under sell the Chinese growers themselves. The mode of attaining this end-was indicated some few years since by Sir Cecil Beadon, perhaps the highest authority on this subject that In dia has bad, and that is to very greatly increase the cultivation of opium in Bengal, and to sell a larger amount ata .:lower. price, in . China. Hitherto We have been able_to-command the market, but in a very short time the Chinaman woad. accustom himself to the inferior drug procurable on the spot, and the sale of the highly flavored and costly Indian opium would be confined to a few rich - connoisseurs. The Indian government are fully awake to the great importance of this question, and their action will, I- have reason to think, follow the course suggested by Sir C. Beadon. To extend the cultivation of the poppy in Bengal it will be ne cessary to give the cultivators a higher price for their produce and also to extend its growth to other parts of India, to Rohilcund, the Pun jaub, and perhaps, though the idea is heretical, to Bombay, to the exclusion to a certain extent of Nalwa opium. The alternative plan is, abandoning the monopoly of cultivation and manufacture, which is the Bengal system, and introducing the. Bombay system, which levies a heavy transit duty on the opium manufactured by private enterprise in Malwa. I, am, however, distinctly of opinion that the Bengal system, securing the monopoly of the direct purchase, preparation and sale of the drug, should be maintained. Practically, the government derives something like £3O a chest more from Bengal opium than is derived under the Bombay, or "pass" system, from Malwa opium. Of course, a heavier ditty might be imposed on Malwa opium, but this would cer tainly at first check production, and a reduced supply now means an increased production in China—a consummation religiously to be avoided. I have, therefore, little doubt that, -ooner or later—the former for choice—the In dian government will adopt Sir C. Beadon's view, and that they will in furtherance of their seal interest, stimulate the cultivation of opium by the payment of a higher price to the culti vator, and, as a consequence, extend the area over which it is produced. The enhanced price of say one shilling in the pound would be all important to the cultivator, while the diner stnce it would make to the government would be insignificant.
