THE WAR.
All eyes are now turned toward Europe,
aud the world awaits breathlessly the
coming coutest. For the past week the
contending nations France and Prussia
liave been actively engaged in moving the
nrniics, fortifying cities, strcngthcucuiug
the outposts, and making the most extco
h'ivo preparations lor the couflict, IJut it
has not yet come. The state of Kuropo is
much the same to-day as it was one week
ago, except that the preliminary operations
for war are uow uuarly completed. Two
skirmishes have been fought, resulting
favorably to the Prussians, and demon
strating the superiority of the Needle gun
over the French. Chasscpot. 15Iood has
thus been spiU, and all hopes of peace are
how abaudoned. Napoleon commauds the
French army ia person.
Cable telegrams announce that a sccrot
treaty between Frame and Prussia has
been brought to light, of which the follow
ing is said to be the text:
The preamble sets forth that the King
of Prussia and the Einpcior of the French
in order to strengthen the ties of friend
ship between the two governments and
people, &c, hereby conclude the subjoined
treaty.
In the first article Napoleon admits and
recognizes the late acquisitions ot Prussia
from Austria.
la the second the Prussian King enga
ges to facilitate the French acquisition ol
Luxemburg.
In the third the Emperor acquiesces in
the uuion of the North and South German
States, Austria excepted.
Iu the fourth, France finding it necessary
to absorb Helium, Prussia lends her
assistance to that measure.
The fifth article is the usual one of
offensive and defensive alliance between
the two nations.
The- publication of this treaty in the
Enlish journals has produced intense ex
citement in England. It is asserted that
the government cannot maintain a
neutrality under the circumstances, and
will bo obliged to side with Prussia.
lcnmark has decided to remain neutral
and Russia and Austria have evinced a
similar determination. But other com
plications may arise, and by next week we
will perhaps chronicle events far different
from thoso now anticipated.
Judicial Convention.
The Judicial Confrecs of the Gtb Dis
trict (Erie. Warren and Elk counties)
met at Irvinton on the 21st inst. Tho
counties weio entitled by party usages to
five delegates, but Erie claimed a double
representation on account of having more
Republican voters than both Warren aud
Elk together. The demand was refused
and the Erie dclgates refused to participate
in the Convention til! Friday last when the
matter was compromised by allowing Erie
county ten votes, Watren county eight and
Elk county six. The candidates for nom
ination are Woodruff, of Erie, Wetmore of
Warren, and Souther of Elk.
Up to Monday evening the 25th, 240
ballots bad been taken without effecting a
a choice. A dispatch to the Ere Repub
lican on Monda y night, says :
MoCreery, of Erie, baa just offered a
resolution in substance that Erie county
Laving the most Republican voters, there
fore she ought to receive the nomination.
Brown, of Warren, moved to amend by
declairing as the sense ot the Convention
that location had nothing to do with the
candidate, bui convenience, after qualifica
tions, should be the rule for the govern
ment of delegates ia selecting a condidate.
To this amendment, Warren and Elk
said vea. 14 votes ; Erie said nay, 10 votes.
The following resolution was then offered
bv Mr. Wilcox, of Elk.
Resolved, That in view of the apparent
impossibility of the Convention being able
to make a nomination from among any of
the candidates before it, those candidates
are requested to signify to the Conventon
tbyir winir.:x-s. ihr.l tlio 3e!t;gat a- be iu
liberty to cast their votes for any person
within the district who, in their judgment,
would be a proper penon for the office of
President Judge.
This resolution was carried 14 to 10
Elk and Warren for it, and Erie against.
Wilcox, Brown and Davenport, wero
appointed a committee to submit the reso
lution to the candidates.
31 r. Davenport, on behalf of the Erie
delegation, refused to call upon the can
didates, and ou the return of the balance
of the committee, it was announced that
tho Erie delegates could onlv vote fur
Woodruff, first and last.
Messrs. Wcfmore and Souther have
sent in a paper, agreoing to the resolution
offered by Mr. Wilcox of Elk. and passed
by the convention, referred to above.
After this a resolution was offered and
passed, adjourned the convention, to meet
at this place on the 10th day of August,
at 2 o'clock, l. M.

From tho N. V. Sun.
Wm. Norman, of Pittsburgh, an attache
of tho Cleveland and Pittsburgh Railroad
Company ; Thomas Blackmore, cigar man
ufacturer of Pittsburgh : and Henry S,
a soap manufaotnrerof this city, acnompan
ied by a lady, went down to Cooncy Island
yesterday to see fun and have a dash in the
surf. The three gentlemen, after swimming
some time, ran up on the beach, and sud
denly seized the young lady, and notwith
standing her resistance bore her off into the
water and ducked her two or three times,
of course drenching her clothing, hat and
all, thoroughly. They then carried her out
and placed hei on terra ftrma, amid the up
roarious laughter and loud jest and jeers of
the throng.
The young woman after a few moments
reoovered her equanimity, and seemed to
accept the situation in the best of good hu
mor. One of the gentlemen escorted hereto
the hotel, and soon afterward she came out
dressed in another suit laughing at ber ad
venture. The party evidently intended to
create a stir, and enjoy themselves to the
top of their bent.

A Londoner, whose twelvemonth wife

soon came up, and the following scene was
enacted : 'Sir, I have engaged this carriago
for myself and lady.' 'That make two,' said
the husband. 'There are three scats; I can
have the third. 'No, we wish to be alone.'
Well, I can't help that, and as there is not
another seat to be bad in tbo train, I shall
not get out.' 'The devil you won't. It you
don't I'll pull you out ;' and the protector
of the lady, seizing the unfortunate hus

TOBACCO.
We clip the following from the Albion
rionecr. Young men, read this:
An incident occurcd in this place on
Tuesday evening, that gave stronger argu
ments against the use of tobacco than could
have been produced by volumes of writing.
It being a personal acquaintance and friend
of ours, and we having been present through
the whole scene, we are able to give tho
full particulars, which we leave to speak
for themselves:
Tho person had the day previous been
working at somo rather harder labor than
he was accustomed to, aod had felt himself
rather fatigued. During Tuesday he had
used rather more tobacco than common; (he
had been in the habit of using it for many
years) during the evening be asked a
friend for a "chaw, which he gave him in
the form of "fine cut;', as he put it into
his mouth, he remarked that it was the
best and largest "chaw" be bad taken for
a month; but he had scarcely had it in bis
mouth a minute, before be was seized with
a feeling ot death-like fainbiess. This
was quickly followed by all the symptoms
of the poisonous action of tobacco vomit
ing, colds sweats, utter prostration, (so
great that he could not even raise himself)
aud that terrible sensation of "goneness"
that all who have been made sick on this
weed can well appreciate. No persuasion
could convince him that there was any
chance for recovery, aod, indeed, to a
casual observer, he looked but little like it.
A physician was called in who administered
a remedy that caused him presently to
feel better, and in the course of a couple
of hours from the attack he got to sleep;
but for some time it required close observa
tion to discern it from that "sleep which
knows no waking." By the next morning
he was able to be up and go about bis
work, though still feeling tolerably weak,
but a taste of tobacco again brought a com
mencement of the.same symptoms.
This was undoubtly an extraordinary
rase, and must have been brought about by
an extraordinary combination of circum
stances; but the question arises, can an
article capable of producing such terrible
effects on a person habituated to its use,
even under extraordinary circumstances, be
harmless under ordinary circumstances.
