The Pottsville Hinas' Journal of yesterday says: ’ ~ - ■ Between four and five o’clock on Monday evening a shooting affray occurred at Wiest's tavern, on Broad Mountain, Porter township, about five miles from Tremont, in which a young Irishman, named James ICane, was shot twice by an Irishman, named Michael Purcell, the particulars of which are related to us as follows : During the earlier part of Monday a party of miners and another party of men engaged at work on the extension of the Lorberry Railroad, employed by Messrs. McGrant & Fitzpatrick, contractors, all of whom had been paid oft' on Saturday previous, met .at Wiest's tavern, where they mingled together' during the day, drinking and enjoying themselves as best they could; During the afternoon, lvane got into difficulty, with two or three of the miners, when hard words were exchanged and a fight appeared-imminent. At this juncture Kane’s friends remonstrated with him against raising a fight, and prevailed Upon him to leave the house and let the matter.drop. Kane left the house with his friends; and had not proceeded far down the road before Purcell, as a friend of the parties with whom Kane had had the altercation, came out of the house and fired two shots from a revolver at him, both of which took effect—one in the abdomen and the other in the arm—from the effects of which he died at 8 o’clock on the following morning, notwithstanding Dr. Brandt, of Tre mont, was summoned immediately and ren dered every possible medical aid.- On Tuesday morning a warrant was issued by Esquire Bechtel,and placed in the hands of Constable David Rank,for Purcell’s arrest. As the constable neared the house Purcell discov ered him afid immediately ran out and escaped into the woods;. Constable Rank went-into the house and assured Purcell’s wife that he did not wish to arrest her husband, but that he merely had a summons for him to ap pear as a witness in tho case, and that as soon as he returned she should tell him to appear at the Justice’s office. Doubtless; seeing the constable leave the house JP'ur cell returned, and after, hearing what ; .was ■wanted,- the husband and wife' immedi ately started for the office, at which place liq„ was arrested and held until after the Coro ner’s was also held by Esquire Bechtel, and a-verdict rendered in accordance with the above facts —when he was ordered to he conveyed to the Bohuylkill county prison to await trial on the -charge of murder? The prisoner was brought to Pottsville by Consta ble David Bank, and Mr. John A.

FAVHE AND B»ltAReB. Progress and Character of the Negotia tions. [ByCablo.J— —- London, Sept. 22.—1 am enabled by special authority to communicate to yon the follow-. ing details of the meeting between M. Jutes h'avre and Count Bismarck at Ferrieres.sent forward by permission of the Prussian Go vernment from Meaux. M- Jules. Favro reached the chateau of Ferrieres in a' pbst chaise from Means, escorted by Prussian , cavalry. He Was Received with great courtesy by Count von Bismarck, the King being absent at Versailles, and al most the first words of the Prussian Premier were to assure M. Favre that he would have been received with the greatest pleasure- at any time since the proclamation of the repub-- lie, and that it was quite unnecessary to have sought the interview through the interposition of any other power. Count von Bis marck then went on to say that Germany had not the slightest wish, certainly he knew the King had not the slightest wish, to humiliate France by the forcible annexation of Alsace-and-Lorraine-as ifnnquered provinces. Language looking to such a result could only be useuLandhad only been used by excited and irresponsible per sons in Germany, who’ would not have the least influence in deciding the action of the King’s government. JBut, said. Count von Bismarck, it is clearthat Germany has. a right, to expect, as an essential condition of peace, some material guarantee against— future. attacks. To this M. Fayre replied "that he could not think any muleriafgnarantee against such attacks, at All comparable to the moral guarantees of an honorable peace and friendly relations between the :two peoples, ..and he reminded Count von Bismarck that he and the party which he represented had al ways opposed the war.- Count von Bismarck replied that be, on his part, had not less earn estly opposed it; that he regarded it with horror and distress, and would gladly see a stop pnt to its calaimfies-at the. earliest mo ment possible. He tasked, however, whether M. Favre and the,provisional government could bind, The Constituent Assembly To ratify a treaty should a treaty now be made. M. Favre replied that-certainly he could not undertake to do this; but he added that, as the provisional government was now recog nized throughout France, that government could put Prussia in possession of such mate rial guarantees as would make it certain that »he could lose nothing by the effort after peace, even should the Constituent. Assembly reject such a treaty as might now be pro posed. ’ Count Bismarck thereupon said that M. Fuvre, he was sure, would understand the importance of giving the Prussian Govern ment proofs of nis ability to put it in posses sion 01 such material guarantees. M. Favre replied that the proofs would be forthcoming as soon as the terms of a treaty could be agreed upon. Count von Bismarck then asked, by way of illustration merely, whether M. Favre was sure that the commanders at Strasbourg and at Metz would obey any orders which-the Provisional Government might give them. To which M. Favre made answer .that most certainly he was sure of this. Count yon Bismarck then asked whether the day.for the election of the Constituent Assembly had been fixed as he had understood, and, M; Favre replying' that it had been, the conversation ended. - ' IVhat Is Thought In London. At the Foreign Office here it ia believed that the /negotiations begun as above'related will terminate in the consent of France to, a tempo rary occupation of Alsace-and Lorraine,, Prus sia being put in possession of Metz and Stras bourg until a definite treaty of peace can be made with an established French government. It is not thought Prussia will press any de mand for the permanent annexation of these provinces, nor is it believed that any armistice will be declared before the conclusion of a provisional treaty of peace. On the other hand, the opinion of the diplo matic corps and the higher class of . merchants and financiers is that these negotiations are wholly delusive, and will come to nothing un less through the.pressure exerted to precipi tate a result bv the government of the Czar. The city articles of the Morning Post and Tele ijrajih newspapers will to-morrow record a less hopeful feeling in the city in consequence of the delay in settling the preliminaries of peace negotiations, and of the growing distrust of these negotiations. The tone of the Ex change and the markets is dull, and invest ments in foreign securities are once more fall ing oft'.— World. From the Cabinet to tbe Camp. Ostend, Sept. 22.—Despatches from tho German camp Defore Paris state that the new French troops behaved badly in the recent en gagements; that there is great confusion and little discipline in Paris, men shoot ing their officers, and bands of social ists denouncing the provisional govern ment. l r The same despatches announce the capture of two thousand Gardes Mobiles at Versailles, and the occupation of Sevres by a Prussian garrison. It is reported from Namur that the locks on the canal of the Marne have been repaired, and that the Prussians com pelled four thousand of their prisoners to la bor on the restoration. This conduct is most unfavorably view- >! irt Belgium, and tends to, accellerate the current of ill-feeling here against Prussia. , Appeal .of,. tbe Crown Prince ;br Prussia. : Your special from Hanover sends me an ap peal just issued iu the name of the Crown Prince of Prussia to Germany for aid to the wounded. The Crown Prince says: “Intho battle-fields of France,Germany has awakened to the pfOud consciousness of her unity and of her might. This great gain will, I trust,, iorovov exert its influence in . cement ing our country together. But our enthu siastic exultation must be. alloyed* with deep sorrow and mourning. The flower of the youth of Germany have fallen' for the father land. * Many heroic leadersof our armies have bought victory with their' precious blood. The heart shrinks from estimating tho still greater number of- those who have bee*'deprived henceforth of the ability to earn a livelihood.” The Crown Prince concludes with an earnest appeal to all Germany to come forward and contribute largely, abundantly to this sacred work.— World.

Donbt and Darkness. . >: Paris, Bept. 21.—T0 those who are here anxious to correspond with their friends in the outside world, notwithstanding the fact of their hourly anticipation of tne news of a complete investment of the city during such .a lengthened period, the realization of the actual fact of the complete isolation - of- the capital—just -now - really falls like an unexpected blow on the inhabitants. It leaves the people stunned and stupefied by a sense of feeling almost akin to, that which one experiences on receiving the intelligence of the death of a very dear friend whose long sickness had already compelled the conviction of a fatal termination of the disease, but whose loss, when it does come, really and unequivocally, seems, after all, like asucldcn and unforeseen.calamity. -- ' ■ The fact that the Parisians had until the very latest moment persuaded themselves into the belief that some interposition—they even spoke of a miraculous interference In their be half i b some points—would stay the' progress of the German armies rendered them unwil ling to believe in the possibility of a siege' of the city. The appearance of the grim soldiers of Prussia with their spiked helmets, and in steady'array, outside of the: fortifications. dis pelled both tliodiope aud beliof. The people of Paris saw how the foreign army pressed on steadily. They could perceive the dark masses of the Prussian infantry and the whirling light clouds of the foreign cavalry flying to sur round the place, and destroying its commdni cations with the outside world in every di rection. The grips of the iron bonds wore drawn closer till Paris found that; she - could scarcely breathe. She experienced a sense of 'civic and municipal suffocation. In such condition does the city now remain. A East Hope. Paris entertains a hope, notwithstanding. Even now the city aspirates that M. Jules Favre.wili.succeedin winning'terms of peace with Bismarck. This hopeful feeling animates the hearts of many of tne citizens and comes to numbers of the-middle classes as a sole ray of consolation amid the general, gloom which surrounds them. The people of the higher ranks, those who are well informed as to the tendency and cur rent of jifublic events, entertain but little ex pectation of a settlement with Prussia before Paris;has experienced still further .suffering, until she has felt what I may term, additional horrors. „ • - Extremist violence, Outrage and the -“Houghs.” " Unhappily for the prospects of speedy relief the German statement that the provisional -governmentuf-Franceoannotspeab-authorito— tivelytor the French nation to Germany re ceives confirmation in the action of the repub lican extremists, even in this, hour of trial, •when both ■> citizen and political unity are alike indispensable'. During Saturday and on Sunday we wit nessed soihe very disgraceful public demon strations, which were , made almost simulta neously in.several portions of the city, in con sequence of an announcement to the effect that the “ Beds” demanded the immediate creation of committees of defence to be chosen by the people in the several arrondisse rnents, and required a general collection and equal division of .the supplies, both of food, and ammunition: Noisy and dangerous crowds, which were moved in this direction, assembled indifferent quarters of the city, uttering counter revolu tionary cries. Very many “roughs,” armed in some instances with fire-arms,hut mostly with other weapons of violence, were out and committed many outrages. In one case a store was broken into,-and'tbe house in which it was situated pillaged. A large quantity of provi sions were seized on the pretence that the men were acting under authority of the Committee of Defence. A great degree of terror prevailedamong the members of the better classes of the population during Sunday night. —He raid. [ANOTHER DESPATCH,. | Aspect of tbe Streets. The aspect of the streets changes wonder fully from day to day; fewer people are in them ; more shops are closed, more soldiers are out and fewer women. People grow solemn—a strange thing for Paris. At 10 P. M. the cafes are rigorously closed-another strange thing—and by 11 the boulevards are deserted. Ambulances with wounded soldiers are con tinually .passing,: and we hear grim rumors of houses and whole streets being mined, ready to send assailing Prussians into ,the air. Car riages passing the line of the fortifications are forbidden to go oft a walk for fear of occa sioning explosions. Protection for Foreigners. ' Yesterday morning the most curious sign of the siege was the number of foreign flags fly ing about Paris, 1 went to the English Em bassy ; there was the Union Jack flying over the gateway in the Faubourg St. Honors; and that there might be no mistake, a great black board was.put up to inform the public that “This is the English Embassy;.’ also a similar board on the garden ..side facing the Champs EJysees. Ana similarly all the foreign embassies have their flags flying. Every foreign resident in Paris hangs out the flag of his nation. The number of nags with stars and stripes that meet one in every street gives a vivid idea of the regard in which the French capital is held by Americans. T lie English flags are much fewer. It is supposed that all houses covered with such (lags will be respected by both belligerents. The red cross flags of the Society for the Wounded are also very frequent. If any one sets up a private ambulance in his house—that is, allots one or two beds to the wounded—he may hang out the red cross flag. Among all the flags the Amei'ican is the favorite ; and Mi\ Washburns is, perhaps, the most popular man in Paris. Unsuccessful Attempts to Burn the Woods. Desperate attempts were made, neverthe less, to burn the woods, but so much rain had recently fallen and the trees were still so green and full of sap that no quantity of petroleum would coax them to blaze and con sume. They gave out, plenty of smoke, which drifted over nbnudantly into the city when the wind blew from the southwest; but there was. no , conflagration. I went up on the heights of Montmartre to see it, but nothing could be discovered beyond the blazing, barns and hayricks, Set on lire to prevent them from fajling into thp hands of, the Prussians. -, Here then thfi Woods,remain, and: here too 7 are the Prussians, in them- Here the •enemy have concealed themselves in tho daytime, and hence they have emerged at night and early dawn—resting 12 hours or more, then making forced marches of two or threo days, always methodically but resolutely. All those clusters of trees which form tho woods and copses called after Notre Dame and Saint Martin, Gros fiois: all that romains of tho once vast Forest of Bondy have been thus oc cupied by Prussians. They advanced along the Orleans road-tot-Savigny, where they cut the lines.-> They_found the ford between Ablon and Atlfls, and, os the Seine is now low, they soon crossed it, with water up to their waists. Immediately they proceeded to construed a pontoon bridge at Juvisy, where the railway branches oft toward Chatillon-le-Eetit and Vi try. By this movement they avoided the bridge at Joinvillede-Pont, which had been blown up at the approach of their Uhlaiis. From this point they rapidly gained the Bois de Ferrieres and Meudon, anu presently Versailles—wherein the old , palace of the Kings of France, in the ancient “ hunting box” of Louis XIII. messieurs the Uhlans rested their weary limbs on Sunday night. No time has been lost by them in getting to work. [By Mall.J Demonstration in Front of the American Eegatlon.- Pabis, Sept. 9. —The recognition of the French Bepublic by the American Govern ment led to an imposing demonstration yester day. "When, the crowd arrived, in front of the Legation several of its members were chosen to convey to Mr. Washbtirno the expressions of its sentiments. Mr. 'Washbtcme listened with much emotion-to the following address delivered by M. Luclen: “ Sir-: —ln the name of a great number of. citizens.-certainofthO approval and support .by the entire nation, we come to beg you' to ’testify to your Government onr gratitude for the spontaneity with which it has answered the announcement of a French Bepublic.

I will convey the thanks you have given me to my Government, which I know will be much pleased with this patriotic manifestation.” EVGEBIE UNDEB DEFEAT.

[Paris, Sept. 3, Night—Correspondence of Irish (Dublin) Times.] On the Stock- Exchange they could not be lieve that the cause of France was thoroughly lost in the northeast of the empire, and it will forever remain a singular example of the blindness of moneyed men, dr‘of their selfish ness (having an eye to peace), that on this fatal dav there was but a tall of one percent, on the Bourse of Baris in government stock. Later in the evening, I believe, the Em press first received the fatal and.terrible news in its full extent and with full.authenticity, fof it was late when the announcement to the Pre-t .fects, signed by all the Ministers,.was . written \out and forwarded. If the Ministry previously knew it, probably it was quite natural that they should break it to the Chamber and the nation. The Empress, poor, unhappy lady, bore the shocking intelligence better than any human being could have contemplated. She, -was-pale as niarble. aml- vas arrayed in that negligence of dress and personal adornmentSO sadly habitual to her since this crisis htfa arisen. "With.hands clasped and eyes raised to heaven, her first words were : - “ Louis, my son ?”- “ Madame, the Prince Imperial was at Maubouge, and must be quite safe in Bel gium.” ■; “ Poor France, pbor France!” she then re peated several times. “And the Emperor,” she said innocently, “they will not, surely, in sult or iil treat him ?” “Madame,” replied M.Ghevreau, “It is a palace prison of gold and velvet, and anxious sympathy, which ever await such a prisoner as his Majesty.” “And MaeJlahon?” “ The Marshal is very badly wounded, please your Majesty.” “ Ah! I fear me the gallant duke has sought death, .and has found It.” “ And D e Failly ?” “ 1 think your Majesty must make up your mind for the -worst as regards ffen. De Faillv ; there is no certainty, but many reports say he was killed on the 29 th or the 30th.” Such was the scene at the Tuileries. I do not presume to give you as fully authentic the i/jsifw/nia >:crb u, but from a source certain I learn that something very near the foregoing words were uttered, THE PBINCE IMPERIAL. Hls Highness as au K.vi»o --Tllc Voyage to England. ll.ondun (Sept, -8) Correspondence of the Mancliester Guardian.] Some further details concerning the unfor tunate lad, but a little while ago the heir of a proud and mighty empire, will perhaps not be unacceptable to your readers. The Prince Im perial had been staying the night from the Oth to the.oth.at Ostend.. The boat he was-leaving by was the ordinary Belgium mail steamer, awaiting the arrival of themorning train from Brussels, and it was thus that his late Imperial Highness and your correspondent happened to meet on‘the same deck The Prince cried a little on coming on board—l think he must have believed he was only then leaving Prance —but was quite bright before the boat left her moorings. I had got into conversation with some of the suite, and, noticing the Prince peering hard at the receding shore, I offered him, through bis governor, my field glass. He bowed very graciously his acknowledgments to me, and by-and-by he came over to where I stood and entered lnto conversation. His talk was just like that of any lad of his ago of .fair ability and good education. His manners are in the 'highest degree those of a thorough and unaffected gentleman. Count somebody —T forget the name, although he intro duced himself—came over to join In, and, as it afterwards appeared, watch over our conversation. He afterwards exoused himself for his intrusion. The poor Prince did not yet “know that the Emperor was a prisoner,”(!) and his attendants feared that I might.aliude to it accidentally. One cannot help thinking rather bitterly of the system of untruth and temporizing adopted in all the relations of the late Pro neb empire. Prom what I have seen of the boy, ho would have stood the truth quite as well as theuncertatnty he must have felt concerning the fate of his father. Another incident of my conversation with the Prince’s suite I must not forget to men tion. Several of the gentlemen asked me, “ Did I think the English would receive them well?” “Though not an Englishman,” I an swered proudly (for I have lived sufficiently long among you that such, a doubt should sting even me to the quick), “ England always has received and always will receive the stranger and the unhappy refugee with sentiments of kindness and respect, and you will fhid That. wherevov lie mavgo.in these islands your young charge will meet with the treatment dpo.to hijHinfQft tunate position.” 1 The sallow faces of the Frenchmen brightened,and they squeezed my hand for the comfort I had givon thorn. I will here observe that I was the only person on board, out of the suite, to whom tlioPrineo. was allowed to speak, probably on account of what I haye.referred to above, as to his ignoiv ance of his father’s fate, [By Cnhlo.l ITALY.

When we consider that printing was probably invent- - ted—though not first practiced—at Strasbourg, ' and that the library was one of the oldest m , France, we may understand the anxiety of tho, literary world as to the amount of damage-, really, done. It may, however, alleviate tins: uneasiness somewhat to know that, notwith standing the advantages which , the 'city might have been expected to derive from its connection with the first 1 printers, the IB brary contained, with one remarkable ex ception, few valuable bookß. That excep tion was a small folio volume in which the de positions in the famous lawsuits between Faust-.' and Guttenberg were written by what . was said to be a contemporary’ hand. This is'open 1 to doubt, but the volume was—may we not say . is?—of the greatest interest, as ’ one 'of the-.' most trustworthy sources from which • the ; prevalent opinions as to the origih of printing* are derived. Among the early specimens of typography there was a copy of the first Ger man Bible, printed by Mente- , lin about Hiiti, but undated;., also three early Latin Bibles by Mentelin,.' Jenson and Eggestein, the last bearing the . manuscript date 1408, There was,-besides af rare copy of Virgil by Mentelin, a still rarer- Commentary of Servius upon thatpeet.printod..- by tbe celebrated . Valdarfor; a Jcrome’». “ Epistles,” by Schoifler, 1470 ; > and about, 4,000 other books printed before the beginning., of the sixteenth century. There were only , two or three illuminated MSS. of any great value. We trust, therefore, that the rarest' volumes were placed in safety before this tin* - happy event, and that at least the little folio; manuscript which has so long been .the chief bibliographical treasure of Strasbourg, has , been preserved. Tbe, Cost of War la ISIS anti 1870. The Cologne Gazette publishe§jpnie curious" statistics ■ snowing the lasses in dead,-and wounded in the battles of 1813 and 1814,;from which it appears that war was quite as de- • structive then as it-is now. At the balstle; of Liitzeu (May 2,1813),in which 90,000 Russians . and Prussians, with 524 guns, were engaged with 120,000 Frenchmen with 250 guns, the allies lost 10,000 men, and the French 15,000. - At the ‘ battle of Bautzen (May 20, 1813), 96,000 Russians and Prussians fought against 130,000 Franchmen. The losses were 18,000 men (Including 0,000 killed) on the side of the allies, and 3,000 dead and 17,000 wotmded on the side of tho French, who were the victors. In tho battle of Dresden (August 20tli ami 27th, 1813) there were 200,000 Austrians, Russians, and Prua sians against 100,000 Frenchmen. The alliea lost on this occasion 15,000 dead and wounded, and 23,000 prisoners. In the .battle of Lelpsic -30&,000 allies, with 1,384 guns, fought agaipst- Napoleon with 171,000 men and 700 guns. 0a , the first day of tho battle (October 10, 1813),. the regiments engaged lost upwards., of one-half of their men. The 7th land wehr regiment of Silesia wC3 reduced) from. 1,800 to 100 men; and on the three foSowing days the allied army lost 45,000 men. The losses of the French were 15,000 dead, and' . 15,000 wounded. Summing up the losses of the whole campaign, we find that Napoleon,, lost in Russia 500,000 men; in Germany, up to, flu! armistice of the 4th of June, 1813, about lo.iim) meu ; in tbo battles which ended .with Leipsic, 150.000 men ; and 100,000 in the cam paign of 1814, which, with the losses of. 1810, makes a total loss of nearly a' million of men before Napoleon was subdued.?. The losses of '. the allies during fha same: period were only 100,000 .men less. —Most of the sleeping is done at the summer resorts now early in the morning, when the mosquitoes are frozen.
