The 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 eight Saturday eveniog, has the following: The Globe, an undoubted authori bodies of troops were. engaged, began on Constantinople. She would be able . yesterday, but was interrupted by the to capture that city, besides neutralizing the influence of Austria. The EngPe people weré at first favorable to eeling. changed somewa hat Chae eps insisted onfurther guarantees after the withdrawal ot Leopold, and. was conipletely revolutionized when the secret treaty nego_tiations were brought te light. Naro-. leon showed that he was ready to throw. off the English alliance for an alliance with Prussia; and that déeply mortified lish. Besides, England has guaranteed the integrity . of Belgium, which is threatened by France ; and publi¢ opinion might force the Ministay. to. declare war if Belgian territory wasinvadéd. ° At present both the belligerents disclaim. any intention of conquest, but either would be false to its traditionsaf it failed! to take adanother be dragged. into’ the: contest, While the most*of the lesser powers ‘will be.compelled to: Sigg iui on one side of the other.

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. TAKEN Home—A ‘Paris ci WR Sates Pac oh bring home the: Prines:Imperiul, The young fellow has had enough of war; ty, says a great battle, in which many . ‘England to take should either of the sion they were both picked up in. the =. jority in each House.

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.
