It was a private parlor of a hotel in the Provinces. Two men sat at a well-spread breakfast-table. The younger had just pushed back front the table with tin impa tient movement. ••No,” he said abruptly, “I cannot eat, I cannot drink. If 1 believed in presenti ments, I should say I felt a warning of something disagreeable, if not horrible.” “Well, then, my dear nephew,” said the elder, “as you do not believe in such things, why not make yourself comforta ble and enjoy your breakfast? You are not to start till to-morrow, anyway, you know.” The young man arose from his seat and walkej lo the window, throwing it open and looking out into the frosty, brilliant sunshine. The air was intensely cold, and reddened his cheeks instantly. lie drew in his head, saying: “I shall start this morning. There's going to be a storm, and l must go. Will you accompany me to the station The train starts in an hour." The uncle shivered and drew his dress ing gown closer. “No,” he said, “I'll not leave the house unless I am obliged t. I did not leave England to get frozen by a Canadian win ter. 1 did not know you were so senti mentally foolish. Alice will not thank you for coming a day sooner. Women ilon't like a bridegroom around when the wedding preperations are going on, no matter how much in love they are. Take my advice, and stay here until the time appointed for you to start." Robert Russell, the young man address ed, listened with brave civility to his com panion's words. W hat was such advice in comparison with the urgent cries of his whole nature He had left England three weeks before, to claim the woman of his choice, who had been a year in Montreal, whither she had emigrated with her parents, carrying with her the love and promise of one in whom she believed with utter devotion. Russell's uncle and adopted father had accompanied him, and now sat smiling at the impatience, the whims of youth. “There is a storm in the air in spite of the sunlight,” Russell said, still standing by the window: “1 should not enjoy being blockaded in by snow on my jour ney-" "rronamy not; mu you ungui as wen expect it in this climate.” “Well, I shall take Alice back to Eng land as soon as possible,” Russell said, with his hand on the door. “Good-by, uncle, then, good-by.” Russell was soon speeding troni the town, his eyes looking eagerly forward over the vast stretches of snow as if he would out-strip even the steam which bore him. He was not half through his journey by rail, when from the west, where it had lingered throughout the sunny morning, rose the filmy white veil that is the herald of snow. Weather-wise people looked out of the ear windows and shook their heads, saying: “This will be a hard one. It's just a year ago since the terrible storm that blockaded in this train.” Russell, looking, felt his face grow pal lid in spite of his hopes, his youthful en ergy. lie did not fear the storm while on the cars he knew they would go to their des tination before the storm would be suffi ciently advanced to retard them much. Hut lie remembered the twenty miles he must go in a cutter after the last station, for Alice waited him at the residence of :i relative beyond Montreal. Her aunt hail persuaden her to have the wedding there, where wealth could give its "low to the ceremony, and what girl could re sist such an imitation? “If she were only in Montreal!” mur mured Russell, and the first few flakes be gan to drift slowly downward. Soon the air was filled w ith tine sharp particles. It grew colder instead of w arm er, or apparently so, for the wind rose and whirled the snow fiercely. It had snowed two hours when Russell alighted at the station in Montreal, il was already dark, save that the glooui was mitigated by a full moon. He was half benumbed by cold and sit ting so long, but he could not wait. Rea son told him that he was a day early, and might easily stay in the city until to-mor row, but some feverish, morbid haste urged him on—it was impossible for him to rest quiet a moment. He stood a few moments by the bright fire in the waiting-room. Then he decid ed to go to the house occupied by Alice's parents. Arrived at ttie House He teamen witn uis may that Alice had left two or three hours previous. Oppressed with fearful fore boding he hurried on,taking the road which her servant supposed her driver had select ed. As he emerged into the open eounUy the runners of the cutter sank deep into the snow. The horses struggled desper ately through the drifts, while the blinding storm and benumbing cold almost over powered him. To arouse liimselt Iroui the lethargy which he felt was the pereur sor of death, he stepped out of the sleigh and plodded on beside it. hot* hours, it seemed to him, ho travelled, alternately walking and riding, the animals he drove being almost exhausted. Suddenly, with a snort of surprise or alarm, liis'horses stopped and threw’ up their heads, their eyes starting in their sockets at something indistinct in the gloom ahead. There is something iufecting in the alarm of an animal, and Russell lelt his cheeks pale as he moved slowly forward, leaving the horses standing there. A shudder like the first chill of an im pending doom, shook the young man as he caiue upon a cutter overturned in the snow, lie wasclose to it before he could make out what it was. There were no horses attached—that he saw at a glance —but the tugs cut short off, wereiastencd there. The snow had blown away from one side of the sleigh, while the other side was deeply imbedded He leaped upon the runner, and hurriedly pulled the buffalo robes away; a fearcame upon him such as he had never known before. At last—it see moil to him so long, though it was hardly a moment—in that snowy moonshine he saw the pallid face of a wo man lying motionless among her furs. With a suppressed cry he lifted that beautiful form to his shoulder, and sat down on the cutter, bending his lips to the cold ones that could not respond to his caress. And yet she was not dead—a faint breath just sighed across his cheek. Was it tints he had thought to greet his promised wife He.could not think—he knew nothing hut that he had found Alice and his whole being rose to the resolve that he would save her—that neither snow norice, nor cold should take her from him. She was his and he claimed her despite everything. But he could not linger there; he must be moving on, though ever so slowly. He bore his burden to his own cutter, taking with him the furs that could not save her after that fearful sleep hail begun. His horses walked on again—they needed no guiding—they could find their way belter than man could direct. Anything but intense love would have despaired in that tempest of snow, with that pitiless wind freezing across the earth, raising no glow on the blue white face against his own. He roughly chafed with snow her hands and face; but he soon saw that severer measures must he tried that the lethargy was too deep. She dimly felt the deep friction, for she moaned and seemed to shrink from it—a wordless request to be left alone. Russell had forgotten the cold for him self, the snow swept by him unheeded. And he lifted her in his arms, and stepped out into the snow, letting her stand beside him, then trying to make her fight her way on, knowing tnat if she could once be roused she was saved. At first she fell down hopelessly, sank immediately, with no wish to stir. But in a moment his ceaseless efforts had some effect, and he could compel herto use her muscles slightly, though her head dropped in an unknowing stupor. Russell felt that he had never suffered before. He thought the pain and sorrows of all his life were crowded into that one night. By slow degress, almost hopeless ly .slow, conseiousnes and liorrible^suf fering returned. Ilis face was pale and sick, as he knew the agonies she endured. But pain was the signal of life, and not now would he despair. At last sne loosen at turn witn reeogmz j mg eves, anil when everything else had Tuileif, love reached the fountain of crim son, and sent a wave of its red tide to her face. Weak, suffering, she reclined upon his arm, unaided to move or to speak. Could he keep the life he had saved, through a much lougerjourney When he left the city there were a few houses scattered by the roadside for two or three miles. The dim glimmer of their lights he had seen; but since then he had noticed nothing—it was a waste through which he was riding, with no lamp of hope held out to him. Aud the delicate girl, but half resuscitated, he thought— oh, how many miles before safety An half hour passed, and through Rus sell's brave soul had already darted the first doubt. Human endurance could not last forever, aud it was more than he could do to preserve the feeble life he had recall ed. In another half hour ice and cold might conquer him. He would die with her; he could not live when that dear face was beneath the sod. A quarter of a mile further on, and he saw through the storm a dark object by the roadside. It was a building of some kind, aud it could shelter them. He turn j ed his horses’ heads that way and plunged through the snow to the door. There was no door. It was a dismantled log but, with its iloor gone, aud its one little win dow broken out. But it was better than tlie fury without, and i:i another five min utes Alkie was sheltered front the wind. With painful and patient fumbling he succeeded in fastening the buffalo skin in front of the doorway, thus forming an insufficient barrier. Then he drew from his pocket his cigar-case and his matches, and lighting one of the latter, looked eagerly around the room iu the dickering light. That glance told him that there was an immense fire-place at one side of the hut, anil a divine light streamed into his soul at the sight. As the horses had dragged the cutter to the house, the runner had grated over the top mil of a fence, aud the unseen post had nearly upset the light cutter. The white fingered fair-faced English man worked with a power that was more like fury, anil when at last a ruddy blaze flew up the broad chimney, tears of joy actually started from his eyes. Exhausted, happy, he knelt at the feet j of Alice ,aud hid his face in her hands. With tiiat reviving warmth came a little of strength to her weary soul. She leaned forward, a smile upon her lips and in her eyes, and murmured: ••It was Heaven itself who sent you here, Robert.” lwo hours later a grey dawn was strug gling through the clouds; a broad strip of blue encircled the west; the wind moaned in lower tones. The old hut was golden with the wood lire—it threw its radiance over the two horses that had been led in, and stood wild and grateful in a corner, their eyes staring at the fire. Renovated, though weak, with happi ness beyond words, warm in heart, Alice Malcom greeted her wedding day. She had told her story to Robert—the story of i her desertion in the snow. As the storm j had come on more furiously, her driver, i whom she believed trustworthy, annotwo I ed his intention of returning. She had i discovered that he was in a semi-in toxicat I ed state but she refused to return, and lie would not go a step farther and had cut the truces, and. mounting one of the 1 hollies, left her to her fate. She did not know, when she spoke, that 1 a mile back, within a few miles of the i city, ho lay frozen to death, the eddying [CONTINt rj> ON KOl’HTII PAGE.]

FARLEY ACCEPTS. Mr. Farley's letter accepting the nomi nation of candidate lor Congress, tender ed him by the democracy of this district, is published in the last Standard. Mr. Farley does not conclude by saying that he will accept the position offered him, but goes on at length to find fault with the republican policy, and give his opinions of the best method of carry ing on the government. To begin with, he sees nothing but ruin -ahead unless democratic mariners like himself shall be placed in command of the ship. Since, however, the ship came near being lost by democratic mutineers, we fail to see the propriety of putting her in charge of such hands again. Even “a burnt child drends the lire,” and surely a great and enlightened nation which has been f Governor Chamberlain personally we think well. On his military career not too much praise has been bestowed. But ns a re publican we are fearful he lacks that confi dence in his party, the interest in its perpetu ity and unity, which its representatives ought to have. Prominent among his advocates are some who have been accustomed to deride the party organization and discipline, and disre gard the common views of party obligations. They are in the habit of talking about ••peo ple s movements,” as opposed to those of the party; us though the "people” had not the power over parties as completely, and more so than it is possible for them to have over the so-called “people’s movements.”. In the or dinary machinery of parties, there is a regular and orderly way of popular expression, which is well understood; and though sometimes abused, no better way has yet been devised. “People's movements,” has been but another name for fraud upon the people. They are generally originated for selfish purposes which cannot be attained by their originators through existing parties. The Chamberlain move ment bears this complexion. It did not orig inate with the people. It is the scheme of men who, while professing superior purity of motive, are willing to run the risk of cheat ing and being cheated. They were willing to take General Chamberlain, even while the democrats were chaffering about nominating him for Governor. Now, the republican par ty can afford to take men for United States Senators from Maine whose opinions are not liable to misconstruction, or subject to doubt. It cannot afford to take such as are not in full sympathy with its principles and its organiza tion. In Lot M. Morrill they have a man who has always been true to them, and whose ability in all respects is equal to that of his competi tor, while his legal acquirements and legisla tive experience, especially qualify him for the position he holds. We are apprehensive that in exchanging him for Governor Chamberlain we should make a bad bargain. [From Knox County Correspondence of the Portland Advertiser.] The feeling in our county is very strong for Morrill, our people believing him honest, ca pable, and true to the great principles of the liepubliean party, and never having found him wanting in statesmanship or wavering in his fidelity to principle. GENERAL NEWS. A reduction of one-half the force of assis tant assessors in the State of Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont has been recom mended. The acting Attorney General has decided that the law passed by Congress restricting the payment of pensions to pensioners only, does not apply to inmates of national asylums for disublcd volunteer soldiers. Scenes of violence have been of constant occurrence in Derry Ireland, since the Boyne anniversary, and stringent measures have been taken to prevent them. Last year the revenue received from cotton and opium in India amounted to thirty mil lions of pounds sterling. During the past ten ‘years cotton in that country has produced two hundred and eight millions, and opium one hundred millions. The New England Female Medical College, at Boston, is making good progress, and will be dedicated some time in October next. The peanut crop of Virginia this year will be 4,000,000 bushels, while Tennessee raises 300,000 bushels, and Georgia und the Caro linas from 150,000to 175,000. Copper mining has ceased to pay in the Lake Superior region, and on the first instant the Cliff—one of the oldest, finest and most suc cessful of the mines in the mineral range— suspended operations. ii is a iuci worm noticing mat mo Chinese who come to New York invariably marry Irish wives. The oriental waiters at Turkish hath rooms also affect the Irish brogue and use Irish surnames. The Coriune Reporter says the last sermon of l)r.

SLoral antj *tate Netos. Mr. George W. Carleton of Brunswick, to whom we alluded a few days since as being i nsane, lias been brought to the Insane Hos pital in this city. Miss M. 1’. Norton, the popular and suc cessful principal of the grammar echool in Hallowed, lias been elected second assistant in the grammar school in this city, and will begin her labor on Monday next. Mr. Joseph Hid, Jr», master ear painter of the Portland Kennebec K. K., in this city, has originated the idea of forming a national association of Master Car Painters. A call lias been issued for a meeting in Boston, Nov Pth. Mr. Hid is one of the best painters in the car business. Persons who are in the habit of passing up and down the valley of the Kennebec, by railroad, in the summer season, often wonder why it is that the railroad company permits the thick growth of trees and shrubbery to remain south of the track, on the river's hank, obstructing the flue view that might otherwise he obtained. At very small expense these obstructions could ad be kept out of the w ay, and a coutinuous panoramic view of marvel lous beauty afforded to ad railroad travellers up or down the valley. The best way for a pensioner to collect his pension is to return the voucher that he re ceives from the Pension Agent to him by mail, duly signed and executed, and remain at home himself and receive his check, payable to bis order by mail. If ad the pensioners is this Slate w ill collect in this manner, it will save them a large sum in the aggregate, amounting to many thousand dollars annually. Merchants generally will take these checks. The 84th anniversary of the Baptist churches included within the limits of the Bowdoinbam Baptist Association, will be lield in this city on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, Sept. 13th, 14th and loth. The meetings will com mence at 2 o’clock, Tuesday afternoon, and continue until Thursday noon. Intftductory 6ermon by Rev. C. M. Herring, and Doctrinal sermon by Rev. A. Bryant. A committee will be in waiting at the vestry of the Baptist church to assign to delegates, and guests gen erally, places of entertainment. The meet ings will be of great interest to ad who are included witlsin the associatien limits, and to Baptists generally. These annual festivals have heretofore been seasons of deep spiritual interest. Commit tees for the Stale Fair.

Parties purchasing a sewing ma chine of any sort, find the improvement on the old fashioned way of sewing by hand so great and pleasing, that they are naturally, but erroneously, ltd to believe that they have the*be-t, until the spell is broken by the introduction of the Singer of lcTO into a neighbor’s family, which is sure, by the in creased rapidity and ease with which it does every kind of plain or fancy sewing, to awaken them to a positive, although it may he silent acknowledge ment of the painful truth that there are very many varieties of work that are easily executed upon the Singer, but that they must either be content to do without, or exchange, at a heavy pecuniary sacri fl e, their curved-needle*«, frail-powered, unrelia ble-tensioned, low-speeded or ravel-stitched ma chine for a Singer Xtw Family Machine. Various expedients are resorted to, that the pub lic eye may be turned from the singer for the pur pof.c of introducing inferior machines— viz, fhe Button-Hole J lodge.’’ "The Over-Beaming,” "The Double-Lock-Knot-Mit* h." "Elastic Mitch,” "Twitt ed Loop,” “Self-Adju-tiug Ten-ions,” "Hing Finish and Beautifully Ornamented,” ".Straight Needle.” "Stitch-.\like-oi’i*botli-s'ides,” "Medals from Fairs.” “Vertical Feed Bars.” “Noiseless Running.” “Silent Feed,” and last and worst of all the low-priced— Family Shuttle Mac! hies.” Many of these poinfli are desirable, (and the Singe rexcel Is all in eacn individual speciality) but the greatest use made of these special points, is by the retail agent who parades them before the inex perienced purchaser with such fluent and earnest style, as to entirely divert attention from the really important bearing's of the case. While other inno cent local agents ignorantlv represent that the ma chine sold by them i.» capable of doing every varie ty of work, equal to the Singer, and ofteu do they thus unconsciously swindle customers who cannot afford to squander their substance upon gilded j follies and worthless rattle-traps. Parties in quest of a .Sewing Machine should look j about them and learn what machine is most exten- i sively used in families, tailor shop-, shoe factories, j and carriage factories. It is an acknowledged fact, treely lufmitted by a’t setrtna machine dealers, that more than two-thirds of all the clothing worn in this country by both sejes. whether custom made or ready made, is actually nuinujactured upon Tilt SlNGElt Sewing Machine These Machines are manufactured by one of the oldest, strongest, and most enterpri-fng Compan ies that has ever been engaged in the business in the world. Throughout their immense manufac tories, which are kept in constant operation “day and night,” none but highly skilled mechanics are employed. Newly improved machinery is em ploye*! turning out each part* finished to that me chanical exactness, that every one is a perfect du- j plicate of the other in size, weight and finish. All J new inventions arc carefully examined and tested, and if approve*!, are adopted, regardless of ex- peuse, w hile the many impractical humbugs that i are patented, are left to grace some new wonder ami learn the purchaser u hen too late, that lie has "paid too dear for his whistle.” it should be re numbered that, the Singer Manufacturing Com pany ha- never made a poor Machine—from the very first twenty-odd years ago. They never buv ed tor ini notices, or expend funds in "log-rolling” at Fair- to gain medals or premiums. They simply make their Machines as valuable as money and science can perfect them—place them in their Bales Rooms, and leave the public to find out their virtues iu their own way. By this straight forward course they are now manuiacturing about four hundred per duv. and at that rate, even, are unable to supply the demand. WHAT IS THE NEW FAMILY SINGER OF 1870? It is the concentrated re-nlt of twent^years ex perience in building Sewing Machines. It uses very short straight needles. It makes the Shuttle or Lock-Stitch alike upon both sides of the work. It is very light running and has a silent feed. It is very easily kept clean, and is always in order. It is less difficult to understand aud learn to operate than any other. It has the most simple and easily adjusted ten sion ever invented. It is less liable to rust than any other. It is so constructed that dust cannot enter it or oil drop trom it. It works equally well upon the finest Lace or heaviest Beaver Cloths. It will hem millings of dress goods over seams without any preparation. It is very high-speeded, aud requires very little power to keep in motion. It will out-wear any other Family Machine ever made. It will Ileui. Braid, Fell, Cord Tack, Ruffle, Em broider, Bind. Trim. Ac. it costs $i»u delivered at your house, set to run ning and warranted. Cover#, Folding Tops, Cabinets, according to fin ish, $G5 to $250. The prices named above, are the cash prices at the Manufactory, but know ing that the various cir cum-tances of 'all will not admit of the rigid C. O.

The French Retreat on Mezleros after a Bloody Battle. 10,000 FRENCH FORCED INTO THE BELGIAN TERRITORY. They are Instantly Required to Surrender their Arms. THE PRUSSIANS CAPTURE 11 GUNS 7,000 PRISONERS. Dazniim Attempts to Cut his Way Out mill u Bloody Rattle Ensues. The Fortifications of Paris Mined with Gunpowder. London, Sept. 1. Midnight—The Prussians are reported to have been repulsed to-day in an attack on Gen eral McMahon’s army at Sedan. In the battle of the 30th ult., the Prussians captured lif guns. The battle of to-day gives a decisive victory to Gen. McMahon. BbL'SSELS, Sept. 1. Midnight—It is rumord here that after ten hours'hard fighting Gen. McMahon utterly de feated the Prussians, capturing thirty guns and many prisoners. Gen. Buzainc suddenly attacked the Prussians rear north of Mont inedy, and routed them, driving them upon the Belgain frountier. The report is not officially confirmed from France, but it is gen erally belived that a grat disaster has hap pened to the Prusian army. Lateb. London, Sepj. 2. The following despatch from Bouillon, near Sedan, dated this day, is just made public The battle yesterday was very bloody and resulted disastrously lor the French, who re treated on Mezieres. The Prussians now oc cupy Givonde, a few miles to the northeast of Sedan. Some ten thousand officers and sol diers of the French army were forced into the Belgian territory, where they were required to instantly surrender their arms. Great numbers ui' wounded have also been admitted into Belgium for humanity’s sake. The following despatch from Belgium, dat ed Aug. 31, has just been made public As the successes of Wednesday have cov ered so wide a region, the particulars are hardly certain. It is known, however, that the Prussians have captured 20 guns, 11 mi trailleurs and 7,000 prisoners. Despatches from private sources announce that on Wednesday, Marshal Bazaine under took to cut his way out from the shelter of the fortifications of Metz. The battle lasted all that day and evening, when on 'Thursday morning he was again driven within the w alls, The losses were extremely severe on both sides. The death of Emperor Napoleon is ru mored this aiteuioon, but the particulars are so conflicting that the effort .at the Exchange is not marked. The Times says that the Prussians finding their enemy still strong in numbers, have been obliged to remain near fortified towns, in order to watch them. The London Journals are sadly perplexed by the late war despatches. They say a new encounter seems to have occurred near Sedan yesterday, favoring the French, but neither this or anything else permits the Prussians from going to Paris. They prac tically are unresisted. Win. II. liussell writes last week, that nothing could possibly have checked the Prussian advance on Paris, but now that the fortifications have been so enlarged and strengthened, an entrance there is impossi ble. Cholera has extended in the south-eastern part of Prussia. The urgency of the Prussian advance is ascribed to her anxiety to reach Paris before the new rifled naval artillery which is now concentrating from the fleets, should be moved into position there. Experts regard these guns as murderous weapons. Prince Frederick Charles yesterday thanked his troops on the battle field for their gal lantry. The fourth army composed of the Landwehr, has already distinguished itself. A body of 2,500 French infantry and 500 cavalry, with two cannon, catnp equipage and other material, took refuge in Belgium. Some wounded Prussians who ulso fled into Belgian territory, have been taken to Burges where they are fully attended to. The French Emperor is attended by Dr. Nelaton and other eminent surgeons, and is now with Marshal McMahon. The French troops which engaged the Prussians at Attigny were the reinforcements which left Paris on the 27th and 28th of Au gust. 'They were conveyed by ruil from Paris to Bethel, and marched thence to Muntmedv. Notwithstanding these troops were fresh they were routed by thu Prussians. The Times in its money article thinks that the reduction in the discount by the bank.of England might have gone safely to three per cent., and the rate of money in the market seems to strengthen the idea. Madbid, Sept. 2. A few Carlist bands have here and there been noticed indifferent parts of Spain within a few days. No trouble is apprehended from them. i ne count uo cnriste and other Spanish officers exiled to the Canaries, have been re called. Despatches from Arlon yesterday, say that the fortresses of Mezeircs and Sedan will occupy the attention of a large torce ot Prussians, if an attempt is made to beseige them. The Journals call attention to the fact that although the Prussians have much to soy ot the buttle of the 30th, when Failly was re pulsed, they made little mention of that ol the 31st, iu which McMahon repulsed their left and centre. A fleet of gun boats is going up the Seine. The bunks of the river are covered with ex cited crowds, who cheer llio fleet as it passes. M I I Pans, S. pt. 2. The Journal Official to-day admit* that McMahon was defeated on Tuesday, hut claims that he achieved a partial success on Wednesday. Ulrich Cassigu the Commandant at Stras bourg, has announced that even if the city is bombarded day and night, he will con tinue to hold out. The Prefect of the Department of Bas Rhine, announces to the government that on the 21st of August, sharpshooters, accom panied by a body ot custom house officers, crossed the Rhine a few miles below Stras bourg, and captured four large boats fastened on the Baden shore, containing much valua bld property. The Paris Journals all publish letters from correspondents to-day, corroborating the news previously published of the successes to our arms. Tne Prussians are, however, so num erous that the battles must be resumed on a vast scale. Both sides have received heavy reinforcements. It is assumed here that the King of Prussia is insane and has been taken to Berlin. It is reported here that a large French ar my under Gen. I)ouay has entered Baders. In Brittany recently 70,000 volunteers par took of the Communion in one day, and then enrolled themselves in the army. It is said here to-day that the old people, women and children, in Strasbourg, have been enabled to leave the city by means of a sub terranean passnge in an old cloister, recently discovered. 'fbe Cooncil of State at Paris think of fixing the price of Jjread and provisions, owing to tiie rapacity of dealers. Calais and St. Pierre nr& to be put in a complete state of defence. The Paris Journals demand the dismissal of Gen. Pailiy, whose management of the corps d armee betrayed great incapacity in the re cent battle. The Moude says five well trained gunners have been assigned to each of the three thou sand guns mounted on the Paris fortifications. An ample supply of ammunition is also pro I ided. Uncurtain anil contradictory reports circu late, regarding the movements of the armies and the recent battles. rnlikno in the Corps Legislatif to-day, declared that he had received no official news from McMahon or Ilazaine, and he had no communication to make to the Chambers. At the Bourse and in all the circles here, fears are expressed that the French have been outnumbered, hut despatches received via. Belgium represent tlmt McMahon lias been successful, and that Bnzaine having received a full supply of provisions and ammunition, occupies a good position. It is believed that fighting has been going on all day to-day. Muxich, Sept. 2. There is intense delight among all classes of the people, at the prowess exhibited by the Bavarian corps in the German army. Flags are flying from the public buildings and else where, and the citizens have paraded the streets with bands of music, banners and transparencies. The Government authorities were enthusiastically cheered. Yesterday there was a re-union of liberal deputies in the Chambers, to respond to the convocation of Notables who were in session at Berlin. King Louis was duly notified and n congratulatory telegram was sent to the King on the battle field, as well as to the Berlin meeting. The King in reply expressed his joy and thanks for the confidence of Bavaria, and assured the Deputies that the combat of giants would result to the honor of Bavaria and Germany. New York, Sept. 2. A Brussels despatch at 7 o’clock this morn ing says of to-day's battle that the Prussians have already advanced and occupied the Chapel at Girrone, and that the villages of Bessaille Ban and llenielly Wilier, and Ser nav are in flames. The rivers are filled with defcd bodies. All the culverts and fortifications of Paris are mined with gun powder, so that should they reach the worst the whole defences can be blown up at a notice. Positive news lias been received in Paris that communications have been opened be tween McMahon and Kuzaine. Brussels, via. London, Sept. 2. The French troop3 captured and disarmed in Belgium, have been sent to Camp Ben erloo. Last night the frontier guard captured, dis armed am! unhorsed 200 French on the Bel gian territory, near Sedan. Humors of French reverses continue. Throngs of French soldiers who crossed into the Aelgian territory, have been disarmed and sent to thd camp at Beverloo. Sr. Barue, Sept. 1. Since yesterday forenoon Bazaine's force had fought the first Prusstun corps, the battle ending in the latter’s retreat. Clarmoxt Ex Arooxe, France, Sept. 1. The following proclamation was published here to-day:— “Every person taken by the Prussians, must, in order to be regaftled as prisoners of war, be actually French soldiers, attached monstrably to some flag in some organized corps of military character, proved by a military ensign, &c. All others taken hav ing arms in their possession, will be tried by drum-bead court martial, and if convicted, condemned to at least ten years hard labor in German prisons. CAMPMEETINQ AT RICHMOND. Richmond, Sept. 2, 1870. Tin hsday Afternoon. There is so much uniformity in the exer cises of a camp-meeting that the report of one day is, so far as the external exercises are concerned, the report of each day of the meeting. There are incidents constantly oc curing, which to the worshipers, are full of interest, and are for the time, powerful in their effect, but which cannot be conveyed to the general reader in their significance and power; and in which one outside of their in fluence would feel no special concern. And yet these very incidents are not only salutary, but abiding in their effect upon those who witness them. The incident ol the conversion of the drunkard, alluded in my yesterday’s article, but imperfectly related, produced a marked and powerful offset upon that large audience. There was scarcely one who heard it. who did not weep, and yet in conveying it to pa per we lose the inspiration of the occasion. The emotion powerful and impressive, cannot be printed. With similar incident and illus tion, a camp-meeting abounds. The preach ing was able and impressive. In the alter noon the sermon was by Rev. Ilro. Brown ol Sheepscot Bridge, in the East Maine Confer ence. His text was "‘If ye know these things happy arc ye if ye do them.” His theme was religion, a system of knowledge, obedience and happiness. Than followed exortation and prayer, and it was a profitable time. The evening sermon was by Rev. Bro. Mcrridith, a young man but recently from England. He is a young man of much promise. The sermon was methodical and earnest. The text was 25th Psalm, 11th verse. His theme was the greatness of man's iniquity, and the means of its removal. Then followed a prayer meet ing, the interest and powef of which were so i great that it could not he closed ontl! the! i time of retirement, 10 o'clock. There was a large number who presented themselves as subject of prayer. Frioav Mormko. The prayer meeting in the several tents this morning were unusually spiritual. The pro- fessing Christian friend entered into the spirit of the occasion with a readiness and teal truly commendable. The sermon at 10 o’clock was by Her. C. A. Plummer at Wiscasset, and was founded on John 14, 3. The subject pre-1 sented was that mere faith in God is not suf ficient. There piust be faith in Christ as well. The attendance yesterday was very large. The committe are wearied in their efforts to! make every one present comfortable and happy. The boarding arrangements under the supervision of Mr. Jones are without! fault. If any of you readers contemplate at-1 tending the camp-meeting, please say to them i that they need not go away hungry, for they can be richly supplied at the boarding tent,! and at a fair price. May they all receive the 1 bread of life as wt+1. 1). 14. K. FINANCIAL COMMERCIAL. New York Money Market. New Yoke, Sept. (•old dosed 116)4.

N ONE are genuine unless done up in steel-en graved wrapper, with fac-similc of my Chemi* c»l Warehouse, and signed t he,mbold THE KIDNEYS. The Kidneys are two in number, situated at the upper part of the loin, surrounded by fat. and con sisting of three parts, viz the Anterior, the Interi or, and the Exterior. The anterior absorbs. Interior consists of tissues or veins, which serve as a deposit for the urine and convey it to the exterior. The exterior is a con ductor also, terminating in a single tube, and called the Ureter. The ureters are couuected with the bladder. The bladder is composed of various cov erings or tissues, divided into parts, viz: the Upper, the Lower, the Nervous, and the Mucous. The upper expels, the lower retains. Many have a desire to urinate without the ubility: others urinate without the ability to retain. This frequently occurs in children. To cure thes** affections, vve must bring into ac tion the muscles, which are engaged in their vari ous functions. If they are neglected, Gravel or Dropsy may ensue. The reader must also be made aware, that who ever slight may be the attack, it is sure to affect the bodily health and mental powers, as our flesh anil blood' are supported from these sources. GotfT, or RhEEMATtHM.—Pain occurring in the loius is indicative of the above diseases. They oc cur in persons disposed to acid stomach and chalky concretions. The Gravel.—The gravel ensues from neglect or improper treatment of the kidneys. These or gans being weak, the water is not expelled from the bladder, but allowed to remain; it becomes fever ish, and sediment forms. It is from this deposit that the stone is formed, and gravel ensues. DltorgY is a collection of water in some parts of the body, and bears diflerent names, according to the paiis affected, viz: when generally diffused over the body, it is called Anasarca: when of the abdomen, Ascites; when of the chest, Ilyilrotlio rax. Treatment.—Helmbold’s highly concentrated compound Extract iluchu is decidedly one of the best remedies for diseases of the bladder, kidneys, gravel, dropsical sw ellings, rheumatism, and gouty affections. Under this head vve have arranged Dysuria, or difficulty and pain in passing water, Scanty Secretion, or small and frequent discharges of water; Strangury, or stopping of watqr; Hema turia, or bloody urine; Gout and Rheumatism of the kidneys, without any change in quantity, hut increase in color, or dark water. It was always highly recommended by the late Dr. Physick, in these affections. This me dicine increases the power of digestion, and excites the absorbents into healthy exercise by which the watery or calcareous depositions, and all unnatural enlargements, as well as pain and in flammation, are reduced, and it is taken by men, women, and children. Directions for use and diet accompany. Philadelphia, Penn., Feb. 25,1SG7. H. T. IlF.LHiioi.n, Druggist—Dear Sir: 1 have been a sufferer for upwards of twenty years with gravel, bladder ami kidney affection#, during which time 1 have used various medicinal preparations, ami been under the treatment of the most eminent physicians, experiencing but little relief. Having seen your preparations extensively ad vertised, 1 consulted my family physican in regard to using your Extract Iiucku. I did this because 1 had Used all kinds of adver tised remedies and had found them worthless, and some quite injurious; in fact,! despaired of ever ffetting well, and determined to use no remedies serearter unless 1 knew of the ingredients. It was this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you advertised that it was composed of hucbu, eubeb* and juniper berries, it occurred to me and my phys ician its an excellent combination and with his ad vice. after an examination of the article and con sulting again with the druggist, I concluded to try it. 1 commenced to use it about eight months ago, at which time I was confined to my room. From the llrst bottle I was astonished at the ben eficial effect, and after using it three weeks was able to walk out. 1 felt much like writing to you a Hill statement of my case at the time, but thought my improvement might only be temporary, and therefore concluded to defer, and see it it would effect a perfect care, knowing then it would bo «»t greater value to you and more satisfactory to me. I am now able to report that a cure is effected, after using the remedy for five months. I have not used any now for three months, and led as well In all respect* as I ever did. Your ISttcliu being devoid of any unpleasant taste and odor, a nice tonic and in vigorator of the system, I do not mean to be without it whenever occasion inay require its use in such affection*. M.

ADDRESS To the Nervous and Debilitated, Whose sufferings have been protracted from hid den causes, and whose cases require prompt treat ment to render existence desirable Ir you are suf fering, or have suffered, from involuntary dis charges, what effect does it produce upon your general health? Do you feel weak, debilitated, easily tired? I toes a little extra exertion produce palpitation of the heart Does your liver, or urin ary organs, or your kidneys, frequently get out of order Is your urine sometime* thick, milky or flocky, or is* it ropy on settling? Or does a thick skum rise to the top Or is a sediment at the bot tom after it has stood awhile I to you have spells of short breathing or dyspepsia Are your bowels constipated? Do you have spells of faulting, or rushes of blood to the head Is your memory im paired? Is vour mind constantly dwelling on this subject? I>o you feel dull, listless, moping, tired of company, of life Do you wish to be left alone, to get away from every Ixxly Itoes any little thing make you start or jump? Is your sleep broken or restless? Is the lustre of your eye as brilliant. The bloom on your cheek as bright? Do you en joy yourself in* society as well? Do you pursue your business with the same energy Do you feel as much confidence in yourself Are your spirits dull ami flagging, given to fits of melancholy If so, do not lay it to your liver or dyspepsia. Have you restless nights Your back weak, your knees weak, and have but little appetite, and you attrib ute this to dyspepsia or liver-complaint Now reader, self-abuse, venereal diseases badly cured, ami sexual excesses, are all capable of pro ducing a weakness of the generative organs. The organs of generation, w hen in perfect health, make the man. Did you ever think that those bold, de fiant. energetic, persevering, successful business men are always those whose generative organs are in perfect health? You never hear such men coin plain of being melancholy, of nervousness, of pal pitation of the heart. They are never afraid tliev cannot succeed in business; they don’t become sad and discouraged they are always polite and pleas ant in the company of Indies, ami look you and them right in the face—none of vour dow ncast looks or any other meanness about them. 1 do not mean those who keep the organs inflated by running to excess. These will not only ruin their constitutions, but also those they do business with oad'or. How many men, from badly cured diseases, from the effects of self-abuae and excesses, lirve brought about that state of weakness in those organs that has reduced the general system so much as to in duce almost every other disease—idiocy, lunacy, paralysis, spinal affections, suicide, ami aim" t every other form of disease w hich humanity is heir to, and the real cause of the trouble scarcely ever suspected, and have doctored for all but the right one. _ Diseases of those organs require the use nt a D.u rctic. IIKLM BOLD’S FLUID EXTRACT BUCHU is the great Diuretic, and is a certain cure for dis eases of the Bladder, Kidneys, Gravel, Dropsy, Or ganic Weakness. Female Complaints, General De bility. and all diseases of the Urinary Organs, w hether existing in Male or Female, from whatever cause originating, and no mutter of how long stand ing. If no treatment is submitted to, Consumption or Insanity may ensue. Our flesh and blood are sup fiorted from these sources, and the health and nippiness, and that of Posterity, depends upon prompt use of a reliable remedy.

Allow me to r.all vour attention to my PREPAR ATION OF COMPOUND EXTRACT BUCHU The component parts are BUCHU, Long Leaf CUBEBS, JUNIPER BERRIES. Mode or Preparation.—Buchu, in vacuo Juniper Berries, by distillation, to form a fine gin Cubebe extracted by dieplacment with spirits ob tained from Juniper Berries; very little sugar is used, and a small proportion of spirit. It is more palatable than any now in use. Buchu, as prepared by Druggists, is of a dark color. It is a plant that emits its fragrance; the action of aflame destroys this (its active principle), leaving a dark and glutinous decoction. Mine is the color ol ingredients. The Buchu iu iny prepar ation predominates; the smallest quantity of the oilier ingredients are added, to prevent fermenta tion; upon inspection, it will he found not to lie a Tincture, as made in Pharmacopcea, nor is it a Syrup—and therefore can be used in cases w here fever or inflammation exists. In this, yon have the knowledge of the ingredients and the mode of pre paration. Hoping that you will favor it with a trial, and that upon inspection it will meet with your appro bation. With a feeling of confidence, I am, very respectfully, II. T. HELMBOLD.
