both sides cla & vee A dis
patch dated.at Carlsruahe, in Baden, at
6:15 M. August 6th, says: A forward
movement of the right of thé Prussian
army from Treves and Saar Louis, commenced yesterday ; the Prussians cap
tured Sierck and vigorously attacked
Thionville in overwhelming numbers.
After some resistance,the French threw
away their’ arms and took to flight.
At the same time yesterday, the army
commanded by the Crown Prince moved
in the direction of Bitche, the advance
guard of the French force making slight
resistance. To-day there was a general
advancé of the whole army. Upwards
well a8-good faith, would dictate that . of 2,000 prisoners have beenforwarded.
Italy should avoid ‘taking sides in the
war now raging, and we are inclined
to believe that if she has made any recent treaty with France, it relates to
the withdrawal ‘of the French troops
from Rome. If she engages in the war
at all, she will be-on the side of France.
Russia is supposed” t6 be favorable to
Prussia, but like the.other’ European
nations, she is looking out for her own
interests. If Austria joins France, Russia is very likely to form un alliance
with Prussis, but with an eye mainly
to Frankfort. The Crown Prince telegraphed from ’tlie field of” battle, near
Worth, 4:30 p. m., of the 6th,as follows:
A victorious. battle has been fought
near Worth. McMahon was totally
beaten. The battle was fought by the
larger portion .ormy. command.The
French retired upon Bitche. ©
A London dispatch dated at half past

darkness. It was resumed early this
morning afd continued ‘intil 7 ‘o’clock
this evening,when victory ‘was declared
for.the French.. Similar. ramors: are
-eurrent in Paris, affecting the Bourse.
The contest between McMahon and the
Crown Prince of Prussia, already mentioned, was apparently the comtmencement of the straggle: There was great
over the favor. ble news from the frontier; the-particulers of the two days
fighting were _posted on the bulletin
boards at the Bourse: and the Gaulois
says seven thousand Prussians were
placed ore du combat. At the same
time, there was.also greatrejoicing at
Berlin over the Prussian victory;
An extra Gazette of yesterdgy afternoon gives.a day later news than the
above.. Saarbrucken was retaken ‘by
the First Prussian army corps. The,
‘Crown Prince telégraphs on the 6th
that the forces under his command had
defeated MeMahon; taken. two eagles,
six mitralleurs, and ‘at'least 4,000 prisoners, and ‘that the loss was great on
both sidés. A Berlin dispatch says the
Emperor has withdrawn frony, the frontier, and is concentrating. his. entire
army for the defense of. Paris. The
same dispatch says MeMahon’s corps
on their retreat.from -Weissenburg,
made a stand at Hagehati,but the Prussians carried the place at the point of
the bayonet. “The Emperor tele,
from Mots that communication’ Wad
been cut. off with: McMahon, se he ‘had
not been heard from until Sunday afternoon ; that his loss was great, but
he retired in good order. -The ory ts
from the Emperor, announcing the defeat of McMahon,.which are said te
e Emprees Regent had cauged-deeuto be signed by the Ministers, .
dec ring Paris in a state of siege—that
is, declaring martial law.
PERJURY.—On Saturday, a boy who
gave his namie as James Brooks, applied for registration as a voter in the
Third Ward of San Francisco. He
took the usual oath, but it appeared
fridens, Shas he was not twenty-one
years of “He was at once taken
into’ ‘éistody by officer Rainey, who
rioal . made hchittge of paijury against him,
From. it could not be
thought thathe is over fifteen years old.

Paris paper says
. & special train. has been sent to Metstofacil that thi’ jay tac the fist ballot,
stood six for murder in the second degree, and five for murder in the first
degree, one of the jurors refusing to
vote, and saying that he would never
consent to a vérdict that would hang
the prisoner. To those who have read}
the newspaper acebunts, the murder appears to have beén one of the most
horrible and eoid” bleeded ‘on record.
But the only evidence against Quinn
was his own confession, and it appears
that some thought his confession false,
as he now asserts it to be. He was
much pleased ‘that his life was spared,
and asserted his belief that facts would
come to slag. before asi ues to esmiei with as Baglish House of
Commons, on Friday last, Sir Harvey
Vernon gave notice that he should
question the Government in regard to
the military strength of the country,
and the adequacy of the force for de
fense. In the course of a debate, the
Chancellor of the Exchequer said the
Crimean war cost England $400,000,
000. Gladstone answered a question as
to England’s treaty obligation to Belgium. He admitted that ‘the treaty of
188iwas absolute, and the position of
Belgium was regulated by that of
1839, but it was impossible to say now
what course it would be proper for
belligerents attempt to divide Belgium.
Something, however, might: be proposed before the adjournment of the Bension.
BisMARCK AND MorTLeY.—Senator
Sumner recently, in speaking of Bis
marck, said it was a curious fact how.
intimate he was with Motley. They . .
rejoicing in Paris on Saturday evening . were educated together at the college
at Gottingen, and had been companions
together in many a lark. _On one oceastreets.at night. and locked up by the
guard. When Bismarck went to Vienna, after the war with Austria. as.
‘his own Minister, ihe first thing he did
was to seek Moileyoand dine with him
informally. At the time this created
no little uneasiness in the idiplomatic
cireles.of Europe. . It was generally
regarded as an indication of some
alliance bet the United States and
Prussia, Dut it was nothing more. than,
a renewal of old sriendantp botweest
schoolmates.
Mouriny. —There. has been. a as
mutiny in the French camp at Chalons,
among the Gatde Mobile. They complained. of their quarters, of their food,
etc., dnd shouts were raised for the Re
public. Twoof the ringleaders in the
demofistrations were arrested and shot. .
These'soldiers have been quartered a
long time in Paris, where they lived
in Clover, and real camp pie goes hard
with them.
Norra Caroiina.—A ‘Wilmington,
N, C.,dispatch says returns enough bave
been received to settle a fact that tba #
