LATER WAR IVI:WS.--A
FOEGLIT.
Since writing the succeeding article upon.
4 ' The War'? despatches have been received
fulfilling our conjecture that the Prussians in
tended massing for an attack upon the French
centre at Pont-a-3.loussein, midway between
Nancy and Metz. It is asserted that a vigor
ous assault upon the French position at this
point is to be .made immediately., .It may
freely be declared that a' Prussian success at
this place will involve the retreat of the French
army, to Elie line of the Meuse, whether
'there is a battle . 1 before Metz or
not. Meanwhile we have news from. Berlin
that there has been, contrary to our conject
ures, an engagement in front of Metz, in which
the Prussians' were victorious. The details are
not given. It. may be that the demonstration
'atPontit , liousson has ended in - a battle, which
bas been erroneously located at Metz, or per
chance the former movement was only a feint
to disguise the real concentration of the Prus
sian army upon the - French left at Metz. We
shall have the details or anexplanation in a
few hours.
THE WAR
The news from the seat of war this morning,
~tltongh highly_important.is . in one respect per
plexed and contradictory. We are wholly una
ble positively to determine from perusal of the
reports whether Metz has been evacuated
the French or not. One despatch says it is
now in the hands of the Prussians , i.while of
• the - others, one declares that the French army
still holds the _city,. and the rest convey the
same impression from their general•tenor. We
think it may safely' be assumed that the latter
report is correct.. We have no details of the
evacuation of the place, such as would ineyita_.
'lilybe supplied if the story were trae, - and we
think it tuilikel the French would abandon'it
without a struggle. lf Metz is outflanked by
the Prussians the French may be for . ced to
withdraw, but we have no evidence that this
feat-has-yet - been performed. -But we have
positive information of a most important char
acter. The situation of that force of MacMa
hon's which has been flying before the Crown
Prince ever since the battle of Wissemboum
is at last discovered. 3facMalion did
not attempt to hold any of
the strong posit ions in the central pass
of
of the Vosges. He pressed right onward to
Nancy, and occupied that town either on
Thursday night or Friday morning. it wa ,
considered certain that MacMahon would make
a stand at Nancy, for this was understood to
be the left of the French position, and it was
asserted that 'Marshal Canrobert held the town
with a force of fifty thousand men. Probably
because his troops were exhausted, beaten and
demoralized, because Canrobert was not there
and because the Prussians threatened to cut
the communications of Nancy with the man,
body at Metz, MacMahon evacuated the cit.:,
on Friday, and fell back across the MOselle to
Tool, twelve miles nearer Paris, blowing In•
the magnificent bridge over which he had
crossed. The Prussians immediately entered
Nancy, and now bold the city. This is by all
odds the most important capture yet made
the Prussian army. Nancy and the ad
joining town of Fronard command tip
railroad to Metz, and MacMahon can wily
communicate with the main army of the
French by the public highway.
It is evident that the Prussians are striving
to force back the whole French line which
stretched along the river and the railway be
tween Metz and Nancy. Upon the day of the
evacuation of Nancy the Prussians attacked
Pont-arMoussoe. a town on the railway, half
way between Metz and Nancy. This attempt
to pierce the French centre was successful l but
,the Prussians withdreW Itthr taking the place.
Possibly the demonstration was only a recon
noissance in force to ascertain the fact of the
presence of the enemy. This attack was made
by a pOttion of the army of the Crown Prince,
*lose force has now formed a junction with
the main body of the Prussian army. Thv

General Steinmetz, are placed directly in f

Ipllits case Metz "would probably be left in_
charge of a garrison as Strasbourg was. The
immense fortifieations of the city are of little
use in the presence of . an army whi t ch can
control the whdle of the surrounding country.
The value of the advantages secured by the
Prussians by occupation of Nancy, by colleen
'tration of their forces upon the shortened line
of ffie French — OM, list—tltTelr—vigorous—iletnon
strations, cannot be over-estimated. It may,
indeed, be said that the French have endured
another defeat hardly less terrible and denioral-.
izing than the brow struck at Wissembourg.
The inevitable consequence seems to be that
the French will be compelled again to retreat,
and that there will not, after all, be a general
engagement near Metz. If Bazaine is oat
'flanked there seems to be no alternative but to
seek another position nearer Paris. Every
step backwards at this time, produces demoral
ization which cannot be counteracted even by
the presence of a reserve force at Chalons and
at Paris. We may expect to hear that the
- • -
news of theSe fresh triumphs by the Prussians
has produced wildest excitement in the
latter city. Later news will probably bring in
formation of fresh demonstrations from the
Parisian mob, and of further advances on the
part of the Prussian army.
BATTLIE
ADMIRAL FARBAGIUT.
The country has been prepared, by the
despatches from Portsthouth, for several days
past, to hear the sad news that the veteran hero
of the American Navy, David Glasgow Far .
ragut,„ is dead. For sixty years has the
name of Farragut been connected with Ame
rican history, as one •of our earliest, bravest•
and best patriot-sailors. identified with the
famous exploits of Porter in the world-re
nowned Essex, in the war of 1812, he has
served his country steadfastly throughout a long
life-time, and goes down to his grave, full of
years and honors . , crowned with •the highest
official rank, reaWil and loved by the grateful
people of a Oat 'Republic, known for his-gal
huit deeds, throughout the civilized world.
David Glasgow Farragut was born July sth,
18:01, at a place called Campbell's Station, near
Knoxville, Tennessee. His father was a native
of :Minorca, of Spanish race. Coming to Ameri
ca in 1760, he engaged in the patriot - service and
rose to the rank of major in the Continental
Army. At the end of the war -he married a
lady of Scotch descent living in North Carolina,
and settled in Tennessee at the place where
their son was born. The lad was commissioned
a midshipman in the navy December 17th,
1810, when only in his 11th year, and in 1812
'made his first cruise in the Essex, under Capt.
David Porter. Ile received a slight wound in
the action with two British vessels in the harbor
of Valparaisq, in 1814. Returning home on
leave of absence, he was put to school by Com
modore Porter, at Chester, Pennsylvania, but
was sent to sea in 18113, on the flag-ship of the
Mediterranean squadron. •In 1821 he was
raised to the rank of Lieutenant. He served
at various capacities, at sea an on an ,an in
ISOO, just before the war broke out, he was in
command of the Brooklyn, on the Home Squad
roil, with the rank of Captain. When Virginia
seceded he was in Norfolk with his family.
hastily removing them to New York State, he
went to Washington and offered his services to
the Government.
ln the early part of the war the naval opera
tions were necessarily on a small scale. But
in the beginning of 1862 an expedition against
New Orleans was decided on, and Farragut
oas chosen to tit out and command it. 11e
arrived at Ship Island on his ilag-sldp, the
Hartford, February 20th, 1862, and at once
began the organization of the West Gulf
Blockading Squadron. In April he was ready,
and on the 18th he began the bombardment of
the two forts on the Mississippi, on which the
rebels relied for the defence of New Orleans.
A grand attack was made April 24th, and after
a terrible conflict, the rebels having iron-dads
cu-operating with the land forces, succeeded
in passing Forts Jackson and St. Philip, which
afterwards surrendered. Farragut reached
New Orleans April 25th and received the sur
render of the city, which was afterwards occu
pied by the troops under General Butler. The
whole country was electrified by these glorious
successes, and Farragut soon after received the
thanks of Congress, together with the rank of
hear-Admiral—a grade then (July 11, 1802)
first recognized in the United States Navy.
Subsequently the Squadron was very ac
tively engaged in the Gulf and in the lower
Mississippi, and in the Spring of Its 3 Farragut
was ordered to cooperate with General Grant's
large force in the campaign against Vicksburg.
Au attempt to pass Fort Hudson in March
tailed, but in June, after a terrific bombard
ment, the place was captured. This victory
had an important bearing on the operations
~further up the river, which resulted in the fall
of Vicksburg in the following month, and the
restoration of the whole Mississippi river to
the possession of the Union forces. Farragut
text turned his attention to Mobile, and early
n January, 1E434, made a reconnoissance of
he forts in the bay. By the middle of sum
finer, with a land force under Generals Canby
and Granger, F;saTagut was ready for the grand
attack, which took place August stlh.
His fleet consisted of fourteen sloops

mourn the loss of their .venerable
comrade, while the People at large, - to whom
the name of Farragut is chiefly endeared by its
glorious connection with the late war for the
- Union, will receive the intelligence of lus - death
with the, sincerest grief. To them, the 'name
of Farragut means all that is noble, brave,
patriotic, and chivalrous, and the generations
to come, as they tell over the list of heroes, who
have maintained the honor of the American
flag, upon the seas, will name first and above
all the unforgotteu name of David Glaagow

American institutions in teaching the masses
that it is possible to be merry without vulgarity,
to be free without licentiousness, to be excited
without riot, quarreling and bloodshed, and to
indulge without excess and drunkenness.
The Germans have a good right to a holiday

It is a subject of sincere congratulation that
the dispute over the Republican nomination in
the Second Congressional District has been set
tied by the unanimous recognition of the Hon.
Chanes O'Neill, by the City Executive Com
mittee, as the candidate of the Republican
Marty. The question in dispute was submitted
to a sub-Committee, consisting, of the members
from the Second District, and was there fully
discussed. The sub-committee reported unani
mously in favor of the entire regularity of Mr.
O'Neill's nomination, and the general commit
tee having confirmed this decision, this little
element of disagreement is removed front the
approaching campaign, and Mr. O'Neill will he
returned to Congress by his usual handsome
majority, increased, of course, by the accession
of the colored vote.
The proclamation of martial law in the de
partments of Cote d'Or, Saone-et-Loire and
the Rhine has been followed by a similar pro
clamation in the department of Bouches du
Rhone, of which Marseilles is the capital.
Southern and Southeastern France are evi
dently in a most turbulent condition, and the
armies confronting the Prussian advance are
weakened by the necessity of maintaining
military forces to keep down Republican risings
among time people of these large and populous
departments. The fatal failure at Wissem
bourg has scattered the fire-brands of disconl
tent among the inflammable materials of Lyons,
Marseilles, Dijon, Crenzot and the surround
ing country, and the French Government is
Fined between the two terrible emergencies
t)f foreign invasion and doMestic: revolt. Every
day's revelations bear fresh witness to the in
sane folly of Louis Napoleon hi precipitating
himself into a great war, with an unprepared
and unorganized army, and/with a p6pulatien
ready, at the first report of French reverses, to
rise in revolution against him.
The Prussians are a prudent people!. They
make war with astonishing promptness and
precision, and then make the enemy pay the
bill. They did this with Austria, and they
evidently mean to do the same with France.
Nancy has already been levied on for 50,000
francs, and the bills are likely to be very
punctually paid, in the presence of such a pow
erful creditor. Few things could more
diately impress the people of the interior of
France with a" realizing sense" of the fully ,of
Napoleon's war with Prussia than these direct
appeals to the treasuries of the towns success

C/NCINNATI, Aug. 15.—Much curiosity had

the question of infallibijity, and the cathedral
yesterday was occupied by as many people a
could get within the walls. Pontifical High
Mass was celebrated by Bishop Borgess, of
Detroit, and the sermon was delivered by his
grace the Archbishop. The proceedings
of the (Ecumenical Council were not alluded
to, excl4 as to the question of infallibility,
uhieh was dismiaseil with a statement of
remarks of one of the Most Reverend Bishops
at Home to the effect that the subject being so
little understood, should not be entertained by
the masses, but rather the simple faith which
led them to believe that the Church was and
always had been infallible in its doctrine.

Su N Da Y, Aug. 14.—The speculative activity which the
war in Eurom, constantly tends to produce in financial
circles was exemplified the past week in the more ani
mated character of business at the Stock Exchange and
Gold Room, Wall street, with every recurring sum
mer, has to contend with the attractions afforded in toe
:core nunerous race meetings at the different waterlog
places, and which draw off attention and check busi
ness. A few years ago a race in summer was confined
to an odd display of horseflesh at one of the out-of-fash
ion. Long Island - coureas- ...Nowadays .. Saratoga,
has two grand 'nimbler - • gatherings of the
friends of the turf, and Long Branch one, with the pros
pect of a repetition of the Saratoga idea. Again, the cur
rent week has witnessed the great yachting contest fat
the Queen's Cup and the departure of the Now York
Yacht squadron on its annual cruise. The average Wall
street man tat. tortite, and, as tar as may be, a yacht
ma n. Ilene° it will be easy to comprehend the fickleness
M. the activity of Wall street this summer. When there
has been no race the brokers have, tail plenty to do. It
is true a great many trace out of town speculate by tele
graph. but the expense of such communication adds to
the Intrthen of that terrible '• interest account' w hi.•ll
so often runs away with the profits of a venture, " you
know."
The real feature of the week was the sharp decline
in gold ,w hich ran down from 120.1. 1 to on the defeat
of the French army, a movement which was cant
ontnicated to the preminiu by the seemingconsent of
speculation that Prussian victories shall be the signal
for lower gold. N 5 hile it is evident to those who calmly
contemplate the situation that the war in Europe will
be to our benefit, succeed which side may, the tenacity
of speculation to the above idea was so strong
that • when subsequently a new and strong
ly Napoleonic French Cabinet teas formed
and the Bank.ot France suspended specie payments gold
ran back to iltl.p, Tim latter , matter was strangely Mk'
1111(kr11100d tilt to its Okct upon gold - , for it cortainly
strengthened the market, although temporarily. The
sodden emission of a thousand million of francs in paper
money has, us will bo seen by our cable telegrams, al
ready provoked a premium of four nor cent. on gold iu
Paris, and it is only a questiOu of time great this
premium wild become. Franco is repeating the history
of cur Maumee in the lath war, and this sod
den addition of paper money to the currency of that
country selll load to a still higher premium on specie.
The redemption of the new issue will of course
depend upon the embarrassments arising out of the
war, and we rhall doubticsk see a period of ler gthened

1M:12321
[Special Despatch to the Phila. Evening Bulletin.]
WASHINGTON, August 15.
The Engineers' Bureau is about beginning
to clear the wrecks and obstructions of war
out of the James river. At Drury's Bluff it
has been ascertained that the following must
be removed to put the river in good navigable
order:
The wreck of the iron-clad ram Fredericks
burg, sunk with armor, guns, &c., on board;
iron gunboat Raleigh, 150 tons, sunk
with guns, &c., on board ; the . war steamer
Jamestown, wooden; 1,200 tons, •sunk with
guns, &c., on board;, steamer Curtis Peck, 450
tons ; schooners Wythe, 300 tons ; Roach, 225
tons; Brig, 175, tons, and a small schooner of
about eighty or one hundred tons; also, 18 or
20 cribs of timber and stone,. each 22 feet
sqUare, averaging,lBfeet, high: , .
Soldiers' Graves.
The. Quartermaster-General's office is• pre_
paring to set out hedges of Osage orange
around all National Cemeteries, and to con
struct substantial stone lodges at the en
trance to each.
Correction.
A late statement in these despatches con
cerning our mail service to France contained
one error in- relation to printed _ matter by
British steamers. Those carry only letters for
„France, and the' postage of four cents
covers - 'curly - our inland and ocean
service. The remaining charge through
England and in France is collected on de
livery. Printed matter for France is taken
only by direct - line, leaving New York on
alternate Sati&daYS.
