Thu - reclusion of responsible news ',agents
from this contending armies is an arratigemen
,vbich, , doubtless, gives satisfaction to the corn
:xnandbig generals, but it involves all the rest of
the world in painful perplexity and doubt. _ It
is netrlv impossible to obtain from the obscure
and tontradictory — , despatches received from the
.seat of war any very clear conception of the.
recent battles in which the forces have bee
engaged, or of the exact situation.of the; armies.
As well as can be determined, however, the
'following statement contains a correct sum
,mary of the news : On the eastern side of Metz
there were one or two deSperatO skirmishes on
:Sunday and Monday, between the rear guard
of the French, engaged in covering the retreat
of the army over the Moselle, and the Prussian
centre under General Steinmetz. In these con
flicts the 'Prussians succeeded, after a- tierce
struggle, forcing the French back into their
entrenchments. In the meantime the
Prussian right under Prince Frederick Charles
crossed the Moselle north of Metz, flanked the
French, and surprised them in the very act of
crossing the river. An attempt was made by
the Prince to throw his army between Metz
and Verdun to cut off the retreat of the French
to the.-latter place.. To prevent this Bazaine
hurriedly withdrew from Metz, and succeeded
in getting his whole army on the road to Ver
-dun, before the Prussians came up iu force.
It seems that there was no heavy fighting done
at that time between these armies west of
Metz,-but the Prussians were simply defeated
in their design of intercepting Bazaine's re
treat. •
MacMahon appears to have abandoned
Toul - and joined his forces with those of
Ihizaine or to have gone to - Chalons.
Our reason for. this belief is the
fact that the Prussians are reported in
force at - Conimercy; *a' town' twenty miles
west.C..of.TotillaU-the railway to Paris; and at
Bar-le-Duc, an importdnt town twenty miles
further on the road to Paris. A part of the
- Prussian army that crossed the Moselle a day
or .two -ago -at Port-a-Mousson, is said,
also, to be at Vjgnuelles, a village thirty
miles northwest of Nancy,and only about thirty
miles from Verdun. This would prove that
MacMahon was threatened on both flanks. ,and
was in danger of complete isolation from Ba
zaine's army. lie has probably been com
pelled to retreat precipitately from Toni to
avoid capture or annihilation.
The evidence, then, tends to prove that the
whole of the army of the Crown Prince is
across the Moselle and in the open country ly
ing between the Meuse and the Moselle, and
between Metz and Nancy. A glance at the
map will give the reader a clear idea of this
situation. The Prussian right, under Prince
Frederick Charles, was, on Monday, across the
3Voselle, north of, and around Metz, while the
centre, under General Steinmetz, is east of
the Moselle and in front of Metz.
We have, to-day, rumors of a battle
fought in the neighborhood of Verdun. It is
impossible to say positively, in view of the
meagreness of the accounts, exactly where this
_fight occurred, but from the news received by
us this morning it is evident that the battle
field was somewhere between Metz and Ver
dun, probably nearer the latter place. The Prus
sian force was the army of Frederick Chai les,
which was for the first time brought into
action. The effort seems again to have been to
cut Bazaine off from Verdun. The French
accounts say that the Prince was defeated, and
was compelled to retreat to Commercy. This
would bring the Prussian right and left together,
changing the whole positi)n of the army and
leaving Gen. Steinmetz at the right in front of
Metz. We shall very likely find that 13azaine's
victory did not induce him to stop his retreat.
Be only defeated the attempt to interfere with
Lis retrograde movement. Probably we may
:bear Of Urn at Ve.rdun;forniing a new line.
But as the united armies of the Crown Prince
and his cousin hold the line of the Meuse river
for at least some distance above Commerey,
the French •may feel compelled to withdraw 'to
Chalons and the river Marne.
, Despite this reverse to the Pro ssian arms,
we cannot give the French any credit for hav
ing gained an.advantage ky their victory. Two
thirds of the Prussian army are over the Mo
selle and have undisputed possession of a large
portion of the country to the Meuse, while the
French are again in full retreat, outflanked,
outgen.eraled and beaten. The Prussians have
really v:on a victory, having driven the French
clear back nom that position on the Moselle
which was regarded as almost impregnable.
We may hear next of an attempt on the part
of the Prussians to throw the armies of the two
Princes between Chalons and Verdun, and so
cut off Bazaine's retreat to the former place.
Examination of the map will show that they
are precisely in a position to attempt that peril
ous:feat With very good promise of success:
Whether the risk Will nothe_tomgreatris'it-'se--
pious question, in view of the facts :hat there
is an immense reserve force at Chalons, and
that the Prussian line .of communication will
be so much exposed that complete isolation and
destruction might result. The Prussians

eagerness to follow up their successes, without
waiting for the arrival of their reserve army

.THE PARISIAN VOLCANO.
a fearful Ahing-to_conternplate the fact
that any moment may now flash to us across - the
'Atlantie the news of the eruption of the vol
cano Mit is-so evidently on the eve, of explo
sion in Paris and thrOughout France. Ttle
retirement of the 011iyier ministry and the
cbange of military commanders were a " stip to
Cerberus," a "tub to the whale," which di
verted volatile, efl'ervescing France for the
inoment,_and_tillayed the revolutionary tumult
created by the-first-reverses -of the French
arms. But the effect of these elianges has al-
ready died away, and . the hot elements of
French discontent are •bubbling and boiling
with a ecinstatit'aggraiTatio - it over the continued
disasters bf the Emperor. The feeling of hos
tility toward Napoleon- grows daily more bit
ter. The suppression.or meagre communica
tion of news from the front-exasperates and
alarms the people, and when the Ministry
endeavors to allay the hungry demand. for
news, the utmost that Count Palikao can
give them is an assurance that the French
armies, .have succeeded in continuing their
retreat ; fighting - their way with that desperate -
valor that belongs to them, back to their other •
lines of defence, but, at the same time, back
nearer to Paris. The stormy sessions of the
Corps Legislatif all tend to heighten tho
popular excitement. Deputies complain bit
terly of the suppression of ale war news, - and
the .Minister of War, in his guarded eply
feeds the-flame by his 'significa.nt•declaration
that I3azalne is " the only and true Comman
-der-hFChief"--a slur .. .at the' Emperor,_ which
proves that the France 'of to-day is Practically
under the rule of the Legislature, and not un
der that of Imperial 'power.. - Meantime; 'mobs
assemble at a 'moment's warning in the streets
of Paris, and.defend 'radical liepUblican orators ,
against the authorities, with maddened and
bloody violence,While each day brings the omi
nous proclamation of martial law in some new
department of Trance. To-day we learn that
Cherbourg, Brest, L'Orient, and Rochefort are
declared in a state of siege, indicating that the
yea . olutiftary lever which --has .broken out' ' hi
the Sonar:and - South west of France haS rapidly
spread up along the 'Eastern coast.
France is 'indeed in a state
/ of volcanic ex
citement, which the last news' from the front
does not tend to allay. The.essential fact -in
the popular . mind is *that Napoleon has been
severely beaten and that- the utmost that he
can boast is that he is able to continue a re
treat. The " retreat" of the Prussians towards
COmmerey'will belifiall comfort to the French
people when they begin--to understand--that
this is simply a grand concentration of the two
wings of the enemy, undoubtedly to be fol
lowed by another immediate and probably suc
cessful-move upon-Farls.
What the consequences are tote of the ex- ,
plosion of , this - French - volcano no sagatlty can
clearly - foretell. Only one thing is. certain
about it. It must destroy the Napoleonic
dynasty. What it will set up in its stead can
not be long hidden in the futnre.
TWO HINDS OF MONOPOLY
We learn from San Francisco that the Prin
ters' Union, which arranged a strike some time
ago, and threatened to break: upthe business of
several newspapers unless the proprietors
yielded to its demands, has suffered a defeat.
Two of the papers held out, and with stieb sue
-cess• -that the - printers - everywhere have come
back to work at old pricesond the rides of the
Union have been amended in a great many
particulars, the principal one being that Union
men are now allowed to work in offices where
men who are not members of the Union are
employed. The importance of this concession
will be understood when we say that a printer
who is a member of the Union in this city, for
instance, cannot work in an (ace where out
side printers are employed. Newspapers having
Mon men cannot do the slightest favor for
those not having them. They cannot say a
word against the Union, or arrange their
own prices. The combination controls the
office in a great measure, and if it could, it
would exclude from a chance toearn his bread
every printer who does not give it his allegiance.
An example of this is furnished by the case of
the negro printer Douglass,in Washington; he
was refused admission to the Union,and the Go
vernment office was forbidden to employ him
unless he was a member of the organization.
We rejoice over the defeat of at least one of
these combinations, simply because all of them
are oppressive of free labor. A trade union
which simply strives to advance the welfare of
its members is worthy of commendation; but
when it , undertakes to control and ruin the
business of other men, and to decide that cot.-
tain laborers shall have work and that certain
others shall starve, it becomes an outrageous
tyranny, which ought to be suppressed by any
legitimate means.
But it is a poor rule which will not wgrk
both ways. This California conspiracy was
defeated by the sturdiness and determination
of two newspapers. One of them is engaged
in a combination for the injury -of its rivals
quite as bad, if not worse, than that which it
has destroyed, it is partly the property of Mr. Si
monton, of the Associated Press, and it has en
joyed a partial monopoly of the news of that
association to the exclusion of a large number
of the other California papers. Its rivals are
not permitted to buy the news, no matter how
liberal their offers might be. The Associated
Press deliberately selected this newspaper, and
one or two other favorites, as the recipients of
its favors, and strove to destroy the others,
and give its business to its protege.. The gross
ness of such an outrage was entirely manifest
to Mr. Simonton when it was committed by
printers against his property, but the of
fence seems less obvious when Mr. Si
monton is the criminal, and he
makes money by the operation. We protest
against any such monopoly, no matter whether
it is attempted by trades' unions or the Associ
ated Press. We believe in free labor and free
news. We consider that the attempt to keep
the negro Douglass from earning his bread, the
refusal of the AsSociatedPress to soli news to
Oeh - papers'an4he - Pri - st - cirthis city. and to the
iournalS of California. and the action of- the
Associated Press in cutting off from its list - of
subscribers the Virginia paper which criticized
its despatches, were equally acts of oppression
and tyranny, which should receive the reprob a _
tion of every honest and just man. The de
feat•of the Printers' Union in Washington and
San Francisco will have' a good abet in begin
ning the destruction of one monopoly, and the

The extent of the mischief done to Philadel
phia trade by , the hiquirers sensational story
- of the yellow fever at thei'LazirettO is begin
ning to manifest itself. Our, coastwise vessels
are being detained. in quarantine at, Southern
ports, and the authorities of Southern cities are
telegraphing to ; the Mayor of philadelphia to_
know just how , bad the-fever'is at this port; •
Very opportunely, the Board
,'of Health pub
, lishes its official contradiction Of these "false
reports," stating that there S no yellow fever
- at - a11;111 - 7 - Phliodelplfia; and -- thit'n6 ease has
originated here during the present season.
Even at the Lazaretto; where - there are a few.
such cases during every quarantine season,
there are but two cases, and these convales

for more than a fortnight'past..,v:
But it is alWays easier to 'start a'sensational
story than to stop it, and with the . New York
papers eager to . seiZe upon anything to detract
bitsiness from Philadelphia, and.with the cur
rency which these alarmist reports have - already
obtained at the South; we shall probably con
tinue to bear, for months to come,, that the
yellow 'fever is at Philadelphia. • • •
The truth is .that, considering the total
neglect -of our streets and alieys'by the Bbaril .
of Health, Philadelphia is singularly healthy.
The ordinary summer diseases of yforng
children have been aggravated by the excessive
heat, and the bills of mortality, have been un,
usually large in consequence. >The relapsing
fever never assumed a virulence which seriously
threatened any but the filthy:Mad "Wret:Clied
district in which it origiAted, and even there
it has greatly abated, and, with ordinary atten
tion from the Board of Health, will entirely dis
appear.
There is nothing to, keep trade:away from
Philadelphia, and there Las been nothing. Mer
chants and other visitors can come here as early
as they wish, and stay. as long as they ; wish,

business establishments. If Philadelphia ever
tlkovid_ be scourged again Wlth—the--terrible
pestilence which ravaged her in old times, she
will be very careful net to bring fresh material
here from other sections to feed the destroyer.
But when she is wholly free from, any sub
calamity, it is an outrage that reports so lir
imical to her- interests-should- be --paraded by
sensational reporters in the columns of her
daily press.
The stories telegraphed to this country last
evening of great reverses sustained by the
_Prussi an-artn yl-NY it-h7a - 1 ()Ss:of - 714,00.0-merr---and
a retreat, had greatly the air . of stock and gold
jobbing operations. The Associated-Press pi
pers give the - story, as do also the papers of the
American Press Association, but with this im
portant difference: that \While . the fernier leate
their readers to believe the improbable report,
the latter give the emphatie denial by the Prus
sian 31ini.ster of War. of the whole - story. He
acknowledges that the Prtissians failed to cut
off the French retreat upon Verdun, and that
they sustained several checks, but he distinctly
denies the absurdly unlikely story that a re-'
treating and demoralized army had crushed the .
forces of their pursuers, as such a defeat as this
gold-jobbing story ;inplies.
If it is true that LQUIS Napoleon has taken
to wandering round, In a dejected way, ex
claiming, in "the accents of an unknown
tongue," On ma coupe !" it is high time he
was looked after. The wires may have twisted
the imperial lament into this gibberish, and he
may, possibly, only intend to remind huuself
of the hard blows which the sturdy Germans
are dealing at him at every accessible point. A
careful examination of the utterance attributed
to the unhappy Emperor suggests that this is
the idea he is striving to express, bet "On
em covpe!" does not sound quite up to the
average Napoleonic maxims, either in grammar
or originality.

THE WAR.
01E00 - French Account Of the Position
of the Opposing. Forces.
PARIS, August 17, A. M.—Count Palikao
has officially announced that he has received
despatches from the headquarters of the
French army to the effect that the Prussians
yesterday relinquished their attempts to inter
rupt the line of the French retreat and pre
vent a juncture of the corps 9f Marshals
MacMahon and Bazaine.
The Prussian armY, under Prince Frederick
Charles,after_repen!Pd_and-and_-assaults,
upon the French line, have abandoned their
attempts to disrupt the French army and
delay its union. The Prussians are now re
treating upon Commerce; - southwest from
Met; after three or four .sanguinary
contested engagements. The Prussian forces
have suffered - a seri° ti.4' check i n 'their efforts to
pierce the French centre.

Opinion of the London " Tirnes" on the
Situation.
LONDON, Aug. 17, Noon.—The Times con
tinues to assail the Emperor Napoleon' for
what it terms his evil ambition in precipitating
the conflict with Prussia. Its article, this
morning, is a chronic attack upon the Empe
ror. France is quivering with emotion, and
passionately condemns the actual regirn ias
decisively as it protests against foreign inva
sion.
The justification of the Empire passes
away with the destruction of dynastic peach
and supremacy abroad. The Empire thus
becomes an accident, to be treato_a as o f no
account, unless to be rejettOd as an outrage.
The Times also declams that it is the duty of
the English Minister, at the first possible mo
ment, to discover the common term between
the belligerents, and exact the tenor of the
pretensions of both. Having thus ascertained
the nature of the issuca involved in the dispute
between the two powers now engaged in an
armed fray, the next and immediate step of
the English Embassadors should be to make
proper offers of mediation to the sovereigns of
both countries, and cautiously bring them to
an agreement neither precipitate, immature
nor ephemeral.
The French Claim a Victory.
PARIS, August 17.—Count Palikao, the
French Minister of War, has received official
intelligence from the army, dated at head
quarters, 11 o'clock yesterday; stating „that the
army was in excellent condition, and con
tinued to execute combined movements, after
a brilliant engagement on Sunday evening.
Two divisions of tee Prussian army, which
had been endeavoring to harass the
French on their march, were ' sud
denly surprised by the French rear
guard, - which, by a brilliantly executed retro
grade movement, turned upon the pursuing
Prussians and repulsed them, effectually
checking their advance. The pursuit was de
layed,and the harassed corps effected a com
bination with the main body of the French
on the Moselle.

MURDER I2S CLE ELD COU N Y
Dead Body of a Miner Found
The Philipsburg Journal says that the body
of a murdered man, a miner, named Michael
Crayton, was discovered in the rear of a wood
shed; at Houtzdale, Clearfield county, about
four miles from Osceola, on Saturday after
noon. He is supposed to hare been murdered
on Friday night and dragged to the spot where
he was found. The body bore marks of terri
ble blows with a club or some other blunt,
heavy instrument, as the skull was crushed
and the bones of the chest broken. Coroner
Rogers, of Osceola, held an inquest on the
body on Sunday, the jury returning a verdict
of death at the bands of some person
Or persons unknown. The object of
the deed is unknown, but it is sup
posed that he was killed in a quarrel with
some fellow-miners, as a family living coutigu
ous to his boarding-house are said to have
heard a scuttle in an
,adjoining alley on the
night of the murder. - However, the murdered
man is said, by those who knew him, to have
been a peaceable, well-disposed person. The
perpetrators of the crime have not been dis
covered, and, as far as we can learn, no at
tempt to ferret them out has been made. It
may be possible that if this case was prose
cuted vigorously and the . offenders brought to
justice, it might tend to repress the licentious
ness of that locality. It is to be hoped a vigor
ous search will be instituted, and condign
punishment visited upon the murderers,

The New York Money Market.
f From the N. T. Herald of to-day. J
Tt . E.;PAY, Aug. street is still exercised over
the problem involved in the relation of the present war
to American finances. It has been noticed before here
that the popular theory', and the one generally acted
is that the Prussian successes mean cheap gold
and French successes the reverse. This idea is founded
likewise upon the assumption, ettiriallY popular and un
reliable, that Prussia', successes mean an early peace.
In support of this theory is the move
ment in British consols, which, seeming to take peace
as their only beats of appreciation, fluctuate with
the Its elicat sensitiveness with every report from the
field of conflict. Against these theorists are a large
class who believe Europe's difficulty is America's Op
portunity to make money. They hold that a continu
ance of the war means a large demand for American
securities( to leave out of consideration breadstuffs" as
the safest and best investment that can be found, and,
consequently, with the appreciation of our credit, a
decline in gold. Singularly, however, these are not
a Mina in i;,,; face of peace prospects, to operate
h Pon Ale logical reverse of their assumption, and
buy gold on the certainty of its going up.
Others, with much shrewdness, hold that a financial dis -
t j turbance in one country cannot occur without a corres
ponding effect in all others having business relations
therewith ; that the money centres of the world are now
in such close sympathy, and the alliances of trade so
complex and extended,that financial distresS in one can
not mean prosperity for any other; hence, that when
monetary disturbances occur in one all feel
the shock. Can it be wondered at, therefore, in
view of this great puzzle, that dullness prevails,
and that men as much as possible avoid engaging
in operations the result of which is dependent upon
events wholly impossible to be anticipated, and which,
even if forefeet" are capable of such different results
Tiffs has been without exception one of the dulldst days
this summer. Of course much may be attributed to the
absence of a very great number of leading operators,
who are studying nature or playing faro at the various
summer resorts. This, however, is not an unusual cir
cumstance, and may be expected every year, as they say
in the almanacs, " about this time.' Owing to
the exciting effect of the war, gold has sus
tained an interest among dealers longer than
other, speretsites ni jeers in the uncertainty now
prevailing, not alone as to the precise situation of the
belligerents, but the particular interest the Gold Room
has in either, even it has ceased to afford much oppor
tunity formoney making or develop any but the most
indifferent. results. Thus to-day the extreme range of
the premium was one-half per cent .—from Halt . to 117,'.5.
The market towards the close was strong, upon reports
that the engagements for to-morrow's steamer were
- - over 61,000,0 en and a decline in British console.
The money market w orked easily throughout the day
at rates ranging from three to five per cent., the supply
of currrencs seeking accommodation continuing to be
in excess of the demand. After banking hours there
was a little better inquiry, and four per cent. was
readily paid, with none offering below that figure.

WA slits orox, August 17.—The Prussian

.
copies of despatches. - giving . the version , ap
.
proved by the King of various interviews
granted to Benedetti to confer upon the sub
ject of Prince. Leopold accepting.the Spanish-

forced hiniseLf repeatedly tint . persistently
upon the King after the latter had informed
him that he had not been consultedin the mat
ter in question as King,and was exercising no
influence in its favor. The King promptly
communicated the first intimation he received
of the withdraival - of acceptance to Benedetti,
and subsequently sent him the official notice
received of - such withdrawal. With this the
King supposed the Matter settled, when
he was surprised to receive a verbal
notice from the 'rench Ambassa_
dor that his Government demanded
a pledge from the King that he would never
countenance .an,y_renewat of _a similar propo
sition. The King declined to consider this
question or to see the "MiniSter - in - relation to
it. From first to last Benedetti only commu
nicated with the King verbally, and did not
attempt to do any business through the regular
ministerial channels. The first writing the
King received was the declaration of war.

A NEW MOVEMENT IN CUBA
Will De Hodas Declare Himself Dictator
of the Island—His Preparations to
Turn Traitor.
HAVANA, Aug. 9.—lt has been time and
again said that either De Rodas would be
driven away from the island by the volun
teers, or he would succumb to their influences.
Long and bravely he fought them, but for the
future he is not only for them, but is one of
them. He is soon to put on the uniform of a
volunteer, and to stand on guard au hour as
a common soldier, in token of his accession to
their ranks. The bargain has been consum
mated, and it is one dangerous to Spanish
power in America. Never again will the
decrees obnoxious to the volunteers or their
friends,-which may be sent out from Madrid-,
be executed, but be thrust -aside under the
plea that such orders cannot be carried into
effect against the wish of the volunteers with
out manifest damage to the public interest.
Among the obnoxious decrees which the
Home Government has ordered to be enforced
is the recent enactment of the Cortes declar
ing emancipation. He Rodas has declined, in
the interest of the volunteers, to proclaim it.
He has also refused to make any return of
confiscated property or to take any steps, as
ordered, for the suppression of political clubs
or casinos. He might urge something in favor
of the prolongation of emancipation, such as
that the enforcement of the law would make
all the Spanish 'residents enemies of Spain,
but no pretence of an excuse can be offered
for the failure to pay over the proceeds of the
confiscated property, or to suppress the polit
ical clubs. If ordered again, as is probable, by
the Regent's Government to carry out the
programme, it is quite evident that ho will
refuse, the reason being that, aka - volunteer,
he can only carry out the behests of- his com
panions in arms.
The alliance with the Volunteers seems
therefore but a preliminary to the contem
plated treason to Spain. It the attempt I,e
made to displace him it is almost certain that
he will plant himself at the head of the volun
teers and Spanish residents in the island, and
hid defiance to the Regent's government.
Should this conflict actually arise, and the
island be declared free by tho volunteers, His
Excellency could, as a matter of coin-80,1)o the
Chief of State, whether as a monarch, a dic
tator, or President. As has been stated on
other occasions,. the Captain-General has ordi,_

quite a breeze was stirred up.
Mr. Cameron denounced Grant for sending
troops to support the claims of the railway
company in Kansas, and said the scheme was
coucocted in the Senate, with the knowledge
of tho President. The resolution was carried
amid confusion.
Mr. McLean, or Boston, offered a series - of
resolutions accredited to Wendell Phillips,
which declare in favor of sustaining the
national credit, claim the right to form pro
tective associations, deny the intention of
controlling apprenticeship, welcome every
race and creed to the country, but deny the
right of capitalists to import labor for the
purpose of lessening wages and degrading
labor; that the adoption ot the eight-hour law
is the first practical step in labor reform;
that the donation of public lands to other
than settlers is robbery of the laboring men,
and will justify the party, whenever they shall
obtain contra] of the government, in setting
aside all grants made after the date of the
proclamation to that effect.
It stated firmly that the times are ripe for
the formation of another political party. The
resolutions were referred.
