tains the following:' "Admiral Porter is

Thatthe confirmation. of Admiral Porter's
promotion by the Senate may be discussed, or
even fail is nossible,butit will be on the question
whether the organization- of a navy which
employes no more than 8,600 men and about
40 vessels needs the office of Admiral rather
than on the ground that he opposed a particu
lar Measure. The grades of Admiral and of
Vice-Admiral were created as merited compli
ments to Farragut, and when he was promo
ted from Vice-Admiral to Admiral, Porter
was chosen froin anapng•the Rear-Admirals to
be the Vice-Admiral. If his official merits
shoji be found, on examination, to be equal to
Faragut's, there can be little doubt that - his
promotion will be confirmed, notwithstanding
that the law provides that correspdnding
grades of General and Lieutenant-Geueral in
the army shall not be filled when vacated by

• Lox•noN, 'Friday, Sept. 30.—A corres
pondent with the Prussian army operatia,
against Strasbourg, gives the following ac-'
count of the surrender of that fortress :
Since the 24th the bombardment has been
terrific and almost incessant, and the breach
in the walls became large enough to warrant
an as:lault. It beeame)evident to everybody
that storming was inevitable in a few hours,
unless stayed by a capitulation'. On Tuesday,
'the. ftith, near 4 o'clock in the afternoon,
the joyful sight' of a white ,flag Was be
held flying from the Vatlletlral. This
was speedily followed by the same welcome
token of sui render from.the citadel. A young
lieutenant of the Thirty-fourth Regiment was
the first to discover the flag, and the firing in
stantly ceased. Then general attention was
.ca lea to the flags by an universal-chee.r which
'rose from one portion of the besieging lines,
and was soon caught up and echoed through
out the entire army.
The scene which followed was intliscribably
exciting. Officers sprang to their feet and
embraced each other, clasping 'hands. , The
men followed the example, and some actually
--cried with joy.. .
The terns of the Capitulation arranged have
already been reported. Yesterday I was 'for
tunately enabled to enter the city with a .Ba
-den regiment. The sight, which was impres
sive and sad, was_ relieved by the evident joy
of the , iti zaps at their release from their terri ,
-ble ex.iiidition of sneering and suspense.
• The commanders of the two forceS,Generals
Werder and Ulrich, met for the first time
yesterdaY, after the terms of capitulation had
been arranged. The meeting took place just
inside the gate, on the east side. -- Gen. Ulrich
advanced to Gen. Werder, and, with a voice
-much agitated, said : •
" I have yielded to an irresistible fdrce when
fdrther resistance wa only a needless sacrifice
of lives, of brave men. I have the consolation
of knowing I haVe yielded, to au honorable
enemy." . 1 .4
"Gen. Werder, much afiected, placed both
-bands on Gen. IThrich's shoulders, and said:
You thught hravely. You will have as '
much honor from the enemy's as you can have
from ,your own countrymen."
A hasty examination,of a 'portion of the city
shows it has not stiflered so much ay was
supposed from .the bointia.rdmem. The ex
terior of the cathedral appears to be much in
jured, but not sufficiently so as to prevent its
restoration •in its original shape. Some fine
houses in the Place de la Cathedral are burned.
Hete and there the ruins of buildings show
the . dangers to which the. city lies been ex
posed. In the vicinit of the cathedral on the
east side of the city, he destrtiction was thi
greatest. A singe tir appearance was pre
sented: by the i uabitaufs IniSily engaged in
I /
removing •straw. bogs, rags, mattresses, and
every conceivable means of stopping the un
welcome visitors from the windows. These
defences, scatered in the streets. gave titsi ab
pearance of a general removal of the ln..'.
l
habitants.
The ruins of the theatre present a dismal
appearance. Among the buildings destroyed
was the line public library. It is reported
that the books were previously removed, or
at least thcise'of the greatest value.
it does not appear khat there had been much
actual suilering for 'want of food. though the
means were husbanded with the greatest care.
One principal cause of anxiety was confine
ment and want Of good water.
Several cases of mortality are reported as
the eilect of the bombardment, but I am in
clined to believe that the accounts are ex
aggerated. One family. eonsistinkt of a father,
two daughters, two young sons, and an infant,
had taken refuge in the cellar of their house,
when their residence was struck by. a slielLand
all were destroyed. One old gentleman, a
business merchant in Strasbourg for many
his, daughter killed iu the' street.
The'gen4lialeling of the people is - one of the
great thankfulness forthe capitulation.
The reports that are spread charging Gen.
thrich•with barbarity, are destitute M.-foun
dation. His conduct towards the citizens was .
marked with the greatest humanity and con
sideration. It is a matter of congratulation
that no irreparable - damage has been done to
this Splendid - andinteresting city:
[By Mail)
Gen. Sheridan on the War.
Gen. Sheridan, in a letter to our Berlin cor
respondent, dated Rheims. Sept, 8, says :
'You, of course; long before this, are familiar
with the fate of-.lra and MacMahon's
army. 'They put their foot into as we
say in America;' and I see nothing
now left to France but to , givo up
the contest and make the le.st, terms pos
sible. The French, have - been outgoneraled,
and, in addition, the German troops go into
every battle to win. It Teems to make irib,clif
ference to them where they find, the Freeeh
they go'to work - to Whip them, and have done
so in every instance. I feel, of course, a great
delicacy in saying anything about army move-
rnentB, but certainly on to Paris ' now is
much more certain thing than on to Rich
mond ' , was with us.'
Letter from Marshal MaeMahon
Marshal MacMahon, who has been residing
at Pouru-aux4Aois, near Bouillon; at the cha, '
teatt, of the Mayor Oms sent to the Organe of
',Namur tlie - following interesting note : Mar
shal MacMahon was wounded,.on - Sept. Ist,
at 6 in' the morning, at the very commence
ment of the last battle, in which-Ire-held no
command. It was by order of the Minister of
War, Compte de Palikao, and of the Commit
tee of Defence, that he executed the march
-whieli_proyed,soiatalto_the_;_ artusxif-grance—
This is, what infidliblY'happene :when people
take upon thein_to'direct_. - the Movements of
distant armies from the.closet. In these cir
cumstances one can draw up a general plan,
but one cannot descend to details; and this is
- what General cousin de Montauban
forgot. Marshal MacMalion's -inten
tion was to fall back on Parisi,
alter having reorganized the army. -so unfor
tunately undone at Sedan. He was not per
mitted to accomplish his 'wise :project. As
soon.turthe state of his health will permit,
,Marshal MacMalion will'uot, fail tt/ publi4ll
proofs that he connot be considered responsi
de for the immense disaster at SedaP. Be
tween a victorious army and the 'frontier of a
neutral nation, there *as no escape if an acc
,• 'mit occurred."
"che Freemasons of Paris and American
Recognition. •
On the 11th September, a depUtation Qom
the Scotch Masonic • Lodge N 0.187, "Orient
-de Gentilly," called on Mr. Washburne at his
residence in Paris and delivered the following—
! -address:
...
To the .41finister of the VeiledBtotes of Ailleried
—Sin: A great deed has just been accom
plished before the whole world. France,
whom a despotic government had held in bon
dage for eighteen years, has affranchised her
self by proclaiming tbe Republic.
America, like all nations who are animated
by principles of progress and liberty, has.
through your patriotic intervention, recog
nized the new Government (of the Republic)
of France, and assures it at the same .time of
its generous, concurrence in carrying out the
great work of regeneration.
We, Freemasons of one of the precincts of
Paris, who are to defend under the walls of
the great city alike the soil of our in vatted
country and the temple wherein our labors are
accomplished, come, sir, to bring to you, in t
the name of our Lodge, our tribute of grati
tude. We Come to beg you to be to our brothers
-in America the interpreter of our sentiments,
alike 'fraternal and devoted.. We have confi
dence itithe future, and it is this confidence
• whicli,gites each one of us the right to par- -
ticipate in the affrancbisement of nations chat
we await the solemn hour which will at the
ame time:sound the awakening . of the world
and the funeral knell of oppression. •
SF.PTEMIMA 11, 1870. •
Mr: Washburne, in reply, said he was much
gratified at the call made upoh him, as he con=
• sidered- it-as a-tribute- paid; - to - the - republican
form of goverment of his own country, which,
under its' free institutions, had for a century
'enjoyed a degree of happinesp and.prosperity
ullexampled in the history of nations.
Republican America now "acclaimed Re
publican France. • The people •of the
United . States believing that'. thj•
French people would vindicate theft
rights to , govern themseves, and by - the
exercise of wisdom, justice, and moderation,
found their Republic on a durable bhsis.
Though a. despotic dynasty had dimmed it
had not b otted out the precious souvenirs
which hail existed between France and the
United f.-it tes. The birth of the new Republic
pad awakened all those feelings of friliip •
which existed between • Washingtour and La
fayette, and which wore cemented by the
blood of Frenchmen mingling itself with the
blood of Americans shed on so many.
glorions battle-fields - In 'that great strug
gle fel. -liberty - which resulted in American
Independence. Mr. Washburne concluded
"by saying he was gratified by the eloquent
t ii.z.ti
sent eras he had heard, and that he should
trans . l 't tothe Free Masons of the United
States, a i ' v„...distinguished for "intelligence
and patrioti;m, 'the message their brethren '

ENGLISH NEIYERALIT T.
Arens For France.
The London correspondent of the New York
Times. says : • ....
There has been some - panic in tigland -
about the exports of aiAns, as it is feared that
Prussia may not like it. But 1 cannot see that
the sale of arms to actual belligerents differs
_much from its sale firtlinse who are preparing
to become such. If the principal 'of prohibi
tion of such trade were carried out,no country
could sell anything to any other which
might be converted to warki-i-ket-uses.
Chassepot is, or wits, a few days ago,, in Ifir
minghatu,inspecting arms to be sent to France.
Tie orders tor arms on French account now
in Course or execution in England, are re - -
ported to consist of 400 cases of rides from the
Small Arms Company, Birmingham; six
cases from Williamson Brothers; 5,000
Snyders ; 50,000 long Snyders ; 20,000
long and short Snyders; 10,000, assorted
Chassepots,
Martini-Henry's and needle-guns;
1,000 army Remington revolvers—in all about +I
400,000 now being made in Birmingham, Shef
field and London, and 30 ; 000,000 cartridges.
One London house has a contract for 1,500,000
cartridges a week. This does not look like
peace. I have no doubt that. every gun- .
factory in Belgium is equally
live. * Then Franhe has' large manufactories
of her own. France is Waking hp
to the real Charactei of this contest. Up to
this time only the army has been engaged.
From this time it will be the people of France
against the people of Germany. I can see no
indication that such a war can. be of short dui
ration. Such wars have lasted for centuries—
"bequeathed from bleeding sire to. son."
France, Germany and England were in almost'
continuous war froin j k i l - 92-to 1815.
The tare.
And it is my belief that-the opportimity of
this war Will be taken to settle other ivies
tions than the Boman. As the Italian troops
are now marchipg. into- Rohm, the ;Rus
sian troops will. be marching int) Con
stantinople. England has nu ally to help
her. • All she can do will be to send her
fleet to Egypt ;and try to keep - open that
route to India. And there is no improbabil
ity of her finding work for all the rides she
can make in India and China. Nu, it does
not look like peace. It looks intndi more as
if Prusia and Russiaaneaut to divide Europe
betweeli..them ; and it' France is destroyed,
what is there. to hinder?

The Trade
There is no improvement in trado.to note.
The market is still in that gidet state that it
has been for more than a month. Amin:throve
has bern looked for before this, but it seems
as far distant as ever. The Scranton sale for
this month SurpriSes no one as a decline was
expected. People seem disinclined to lay in
any stock for winter, yet; in this ? there
is a ?Mistake. ' They will pay higher
priceS next mouth, though 'small coat
will not bring as much money as it (lid during.
October last year. The Delaware and Hudson
Canal Company have discontinued .; for the
time their sales at Rbundont, an account of
lack of water in the canal., The long level is
said to be dryer than at any previous period for
many years, although at this season there is
always trouble there. The stoppage of Sales
will not be of so long a duration as to have _
serious effect on the market. •
