Four years ago I had a wall laid along he bonier of my garden I had the rench for the foundation dug very deep, veil down in the hard-pan, and had the tard-pan thrown into a pile separate from he loam. The loam was used in the ■ompost heap, and the hard-pan—a half sandy, half gravelly mass, with just tnough of coarse soil in it. to be seen— was left to be used to till up some path. In the coarse of the summer I noticed a plant growing on it with surprising vigor, which, on examination, proved to be the common mustard, but with leaves nearly as broad anti large as a cabbage—a size 1 had never seen surpassed in the richest soil. Beside it, and also on the hard-pan, was growing a plant of Apple of Peru, with a vigor that belonged to the richest soil. The following spring I spread the lot on the flower garden, and had a won derful growth of flowers as the result. A year later, one of my neighbors in an other part of the town dug a ditch, that drained his laud through mine, to the depth of over six feet, cutting ftir about the last three feet through hard-pan, and throwing this on my side of the wall, where it made a heap about three feet in depth, of apparently nearly pure gravel, a little mixed with sand. 'I'lie next sum mer, while passing that way, 1 stepped aside to examine the ditch, when to my surprise I found growing on the heap of hard-pan, hog weed that was nearly as nigh as my head. The only inference I can draw from' these facts is, that under some cir cumstances hard-pan is an excellent ma nure. In each of tlyse instances the sur face soil was a strong loam that had been under good cultivation for many years. May it not be that some of the salts of the manure applied during this period, passed through the loam to the hard-pan below, and there remained, held as in a bowl? Lime, it is stated, has this tendency, mak ing it necessary to plough deeper each year to living it to the surface. By what ever theory they may lie explained, the facts seem to prove that in this broad country of ours there must be a multitude of acres underlain by vast areas of fertiliz ing material. Should further experiments demonstrate this to bo a fact, it must prove of immense practical value to our tilled acres, of which tiie best fed have a habit of calling for a little more. James J. H. Gregory. .Marblehead, Mass. American grapes—Do We under stand their proper Culture? la the year 1867 and 1868, I travelled through out Europe and studied the grape in every grape country; and 1 found the nature and constitution of the foreign grape so totally distinct from our indigenous grapes, that 1 was naturally led to reflect whether our method of cultivating our American vines did not too clo-ely resemble and pattern afler the European system, which hundreds of years of rigid pruning, &c., has metamorphosed into an almost entire ly artificial product, whilst our vines are almost entirely natural. The vine-dressers from Europe, having almost a birthright to teach us how to cul tivate the grape, have brought their ideas and treatment among us, and it would seem sheer assurance to take any appeal from their decision; so we cut and prune our luxuriant growing vines, by the European square and compass, to a severe extent. I think we are beginning to throw off these European ideas, but by very slow and feeble degrees. I have seven acres in grapes, and my trellises are from eight to ten feet high, and 1 would have them higher if convenient—even twelve feet. I train my vines so they will bear the most fruit at the top of the trellises, and I be lieve they escape mildew, rot, etc., from this method—mildew and rot arising to a great extent from the fruit being too close to the ground and severe pruning. My grapes have escaped till diseases, while my neighbors' suffer some from rot, burst ing open and leaf blight. THE DRY EARTH SYSTEM I For the Sewage of Towns, Factories, Hospitals, Prisons, Hotels and Private Houses. VMPLE experience has shown the Dry Earth System to be more efficient in preventing foul smells, and far le*s costly in construction and re pair* thau the Water Closet System, and that it is m all respect® entirely sati*faetory, whether for the Sick U<h*m or lor roustaut use. The Earth Closet offers to all. in town and coun try. every benefit possessed by the Water Closet, at far le*s cost, witli the additional advantages, that it is portable, and can lie moved to the bedside in the sic krooni. it promises more in immunity from offensive odors, from infection in disease, and in the saving of fertilizers than has ever been accomplished by a single invention. lu the COMMODE, the apparatus ami eartii res ervoir are self-contained, and a movable pail takes I the place of the vault. For use in Beil Booms, Hospital Wards, Inflnu l aries, &c„ the Commode i® invaluable. It is entire Ig five from those faint, depressing odors, common 1 to portatde water closets and night stools, and through its admission one of the greatest miseries of human life, the foul smells of the sick room, and one of the most frequent means of communicating infection, may be entirely prevented.

The result ■will have an influence of national as well as state and local importance. It will speak of continued aud generous support to the principles that underlie the republican party, for the sustaining of which many years of earnest, arduous work, and thou sands of lives and billions of treasure have have been given; or it. will signify the op posite. Minor questions, of nominations, personal considerations, private claims, rivalries, disaffections, whatever they may be, all sink into nothingness before the greater ones which divide the two great parties that stretch from Atlantic to Pacific, from the Dominion of Canada to the Gulf, and find a foothold in every State, Territory, town and school district of the Union. Before to-day everything has been preparation, but to-day the work must be completed. Before tho suu sets in the west the voice of Maine will be un alterably uttered. If republicans neglect to perform their duty at the ballot-box they lose the opportunity to prove their faith by works, and become political ciphers. Their professions amount to nothing so long as they fail to make them effective by the ballot. Not until two years more have passed away can they again have the privilege which is offered to-day. Vote then to-day. Let every re publican vole. Vote early. Vote the w hole ticket. See that your friends who may be indifferent or careless vote. Vote although there is no opposition. If your majority is large still fail not to put in the last vote possible. Let commitees see to it that the polls are watched and no bo gus voting carried on. Look out for split tickets. Poll the full republican vote and we will answer for it that the democracy will find nothing in the result to encour age them. Wherever our words reach this morn ing, we hope they may stimulate republi can* to attend the polls to-day and per form faithfully the duty w hich is a Iree luau's privilege A sure cure for riiumatism is said to be the berry of the common seoke weed, or scoke root—often called poke-root. These berries, which sre now ripening, are put into spirits gin is the best—at the rate of two ounces to the pint. Of the tincture thus made, a table tpoonfull is given three times a day. i ids simple remedy, persisted in for a week or mure, has effected some remarkable cures of this common and distressing complaint. RKPRES EX TA T^VES. The republican* df the city of Augusta added to their character for political wis dotn ami prudence, and accomplished an act which gives general and high satis faction, in the selection which they made on Saturday evening of candidates for the Legislature. In the hands of these gen tlemen our varied interests as affected by the Legislature will be ably and faithfully guarded. The paramount idea upon which they are nominated is that they will he the right men in the right place. This being the case we call upon all re publicans to give them a hearty support, and would advise democrats who desire an efficient delegation for the promotion of our local interests, that they had better cast their votes for these gentlemen. THE FREXClf RE VOL I'TIOX. The establishment of the new govern ment in France, by the Corps Legislatif, was accompanied by strange scenes and great excitement. We copy from our New York exchanges: Ry noon the Place de la Concorde was crowded and the passage of the bridge inter rupted to the public by the police sergeants and gendarmerie on horseback, and the troops on the bridge and around the Chambers. Pop ular Deputies were recognized and acclaimed by cries of “La Decheance” and “Vive la Re publique.” As the day wore on the crowds augmented. On the passage of companies of National Guarde the people shouted “Vive National Guarde,” “Vive la ltepublique,” and the guards reciprocated. The statue of the city of Strasburg was being wreathed with flowers. The people saluted as they went by. At 2 P. M., the gates of the Tuilleries garden were closed and had remained so since morn ing, watched by the zouaves and other detach ments of the Imperial Guard. The people diawn up on the outside were trying to shake the gates on the side of the Place de la Con corde. At half past two a rush was made by a part of the crowd, beaded by some of the National Guard. The police sergeants and gendarmie made an armed demonstration of resistance, but suddenly yielded, and the crowd rushed by shouting “La Decheance,’ “Vive la ltepublique.” Once inside the Palace gates the people spread themselves all over the building except in the ball where the sittings are held. The hall of Pas l’erdus is closed. The next ball is occupied by troops who fraternize with the people. M. C'reinieiix addresses the crowd, who demand the withdrawal of the troops. M. I’alikao appears and promises that the troops shall be removed. President Schnei der, led by two officers, crosses the courtyard, pale, haggard, and with tears in bis eyes. He disappears into the ball where the sittings are held. Attempts were made to force the doors. General Mottcronge orders the National Guards to defend the entry. Loud cries ot “Decheance, Vivo la ltepublique!” The Dep uties of the Left pass out and are acclaimed. Gambetta recommends calmness, ami says a majority must proclaim “Decheance.” In one of the galleries somebody begins a speech. Then enters a few deputies of the right, but suddenly, as if panic stricken, they retreat precipitately. Schneider now appears. He attempts to •peak grows foggy, gets unnerved, puts on bis bat and leaves the chair. At this moment a small side door under the galleries opens and some thirty persons push through. A national guard causes them to withdraw, and closes the door, locking it. Everybody speaks at once. Another party of citizens forces its way in, and the President's cry of order is drowned by shouts of “Vive la ltepublique.” Palikao endeavors to obtain a hearing, and, failing puts on his hat and quits the Chamber. The President tries unsuccessfully to pacify the tumult, two deputies going to him and the three very violently gesticulating. Deputies of the Left address tile people striving to quell the tumult. Gambetta appeals to them to pre serve order and to await the arrival of repre sentatives, us they will bring in the question of decheunce. It is now three o’clock. Suddenly a crowd of people rusli into the hall. The deputies try to keep them hack, but the hall is entirely invaded. The President puts on his hat and leaves the hall, declaring the sitting closed. As lie quits his seat the National Guards and others come crowding in. There are general cries of “Vive la ltepublique." The deputies of the Left mix with the people and all cry to the Hotel de Ville. Gambetta and other re publican leaders leave and go in procession down the Quay de la Concorde, followed by the crowd. Meanwhile outside men climb up to the statue of the law over the portals and destroy the eagle which adorns the baton in the hand of the image. Then it is itself des troyed by piecemeal—head first, then the arms. Gambetta and the procession then pro ceed down the quay. At the Tuilleries the soldiers applaud and shout with the crowd. The Lieutenant Colonel cries “Vive la lie publique The column stops and fraternizes. Turcus and shakos at the barracks of Quay d’Orsay wave their turbans. The flag over the pavillion of the Tuilleries is hauled down. In front of the Prefecture there are cries of “Down with Pietri.” The Prefecture is closc iv shut. Arriving in front of the Hotel de Ville the crowd forces its way in. Jules Favrc and Jules Kerry go to the far end of the great hall. Two Mobiles, with drawn swords, clamber up the ornamental chimney and seat themselves in the lap of a nymph. Gambetta, Cremieux and Kcratzy press in and take up a place by Kavrc. Then follow Pieard, Etienne, Arago, Glais, llizoin, Seim leha and others. Gam betta, Cremieux and Kerutzy seat themselves at the Mayor’s table. Among the tumult Gam betta declares the republic a fact, and that E. Arago is appointed Mayor of Paris. People shout approval. The bureau is constituted. Kcratzy is appointed Prefect of Police. The bureau retires to constitute a provisional gov ernment and ministry. At four o’clock the bureau returns and Gambetta declares the provisional govern ment has been constituted under the title of the government for the national defence, con sisting of the following deputies:—Arago, C’remeux, Kavrc, Simon, Gambetta, Kerry, Glais—llizoin and Garmcer—Hugos. The peo ple shout Rochefort’s name; it is added amidst acclamation. The members of the gov ernment again retire to discuss whether the tri-colour or red Hag is to be adopted. Nchelcher advocates the tri-colour. It is adopted. A hundred of Rochefort's const tuents meet by appointment at three P. M. at the great market hulls. At a given signal the leader raises a eano, attaches a flag to it ami a shout, “off to St. l’elagie,” ascends. The group is joined by other men up to that time lurking in the inimediate vicinity. About three hun dred in all reach the prison. There are three marine sentries outside. One makes believe to lower his bayonet: it is raised by his com rade. The third follows his example, and the crowd take their guns and break them, but fraternize with the soldiers. There is no op position from the wardens. Rochefort s cell doors are burst in and he is taken out. There is no coach at the door, but a lady passing in one gets out and makes Rochefort get in. lie is driven to the Hotel de Ville where he ar rives at five o’clock, lie is carried in triumph into the Throne room, where amid the shouts and congratulations of his friends he hears he is a member of the new republican govern ment.

Extra copies of the paper will be sold by newsboys, and may be purchased at Pierce's and at this office. The weeds are rapidly ripening in neglected gardens. Cut them down, or, better still, pull them up from the roots, before the ripe seeds are scattered every where over the garden, to spring up next year and to excite renewed perplexity and call for fresh exertion in their eradication. We have been shown some old scrip that in the year 1770, was in circulation in Connecti cut, and probably Isewhere, ns lawful money, “by order of assembly, Hartford.” The scrip has nil illustrated border, and signed hy a committee, whoso names are now nearly obliterated. Scrip, it appears, is not a new thing, but was used in this country a hundred years ago. We have been shown at E. Kowse’s jewel ry establishment, Water street, some very beautiful designs in silver ware,the most mag nificent. we think, we have ever seen in the city. The patterns of the differentarticlea are unique ami beautiful. The trade-mark of the Gorham Manufacturing company, with which the ware is stamped, is sufficient guar antee that it is of sterling purity. Persons in searce of elegant bridal presents can find them at Kowse’s. The farmers of Maine, after the labors of a severely hot season, will “leave dull care behind," next week, ami come upto their an nual festival “with rejoicing, bringing their sheaves (and their cattle, sheep, swine, poul try, big pumpkins and squash; with them.” It will he to them a holiday week, not only affording refreshment, rest and amusement, but stores of practical knowledge for the mind, which they can profitably u-e in their farming operations next season. Let every farmer come to the fair, and bring along the women-folks. The hearing of the arguments of the counsel by the board of referees in the ease ot the claim of Jones et. als contractors, vs. the Iiangor and Piscataqnis Railroad, was held at the Court House in tins city, on Friday after noon and evening last. The'board of referees consists of Hons. R. I). Rice of this city. A. P. Morrill of Kcadficld, and Phinehas Barnes of Portland. Hon. John A. Peters of Bangor, i appeared for tho railroad, and Hon. Wm. P. Frye of Lewiston, for the contractors. The referees bail the case under conshlerction Saturday, but we do not learn that any de cision lias been reached. Having given Hatch s arnish >nap a fair trial, we can recommend it fur the purposes i for which it is manufactured. It is a new article, adapted to cleaning and polishing silver, brass, brittannia, mirrors, paint, win- i dow glass, tin ware, etc. For railroad men, engineers and all mechanics, it is invaluable j for washing hands. All that it is advertised i to do it will accomplish with a fraction of the labor required in the use of ordinary soap, and with slight expense. This soap is manu factured by Cyrus Hatch, Bath, Me., to whom orders for the same should be addressed. We are glad to notice in the city our es teamed fellow citizen, Hon. Lewis 1). Moore, who for several years past has held the re sponsible position of Chief of the Bond, Note and Coupon division ot the Register's Bureau, j Treasury Department, Washington. Hu is recently from New York where he was inves ted with the care of the sub-treasury previous to turning it over to the hands of the appoint ed official. He has been sent three times to New York during the past year, on business connected with this department, showing the confidence reposed in him by the government. He lias also at various times been appointed to places on important investigating com mittees, and we are glad for bis own sake and for the honor of the State that lie has filled every position with ability. At the convention of the Episcopal church, held in Portland last week, Mr. James Bridge of this city, in behalf of the Trustees of St. Catharine’s Hall, in this city, stated that the I Seminary was in a prosperous condition and had already secured a very large patronage. Another building has recently been added, so that they can accommodate fifty boarders and fifty day scholars. Some very valuable preseats have been received, especially a Steinway piano from Mrs. Allen Lombard of Augusta. The institution is doing a good work in Christian education and culture, and has a well-appointed and large corps oi in structors. The special committee in regard to attendance at the examinations at St. Cath arine’s, reported that tlie Bishop should ap point two clergymen and one layman for this purpose, as a permanent committee* Hon. Daniel Williams of Augusta, was appointed the Treasurer of the Diocese. Lrtlrr from Heat Walert llle. Dear Joeknaj. Tins is a flourishing, grow ing village, having, with proper care, a never failing water power, being fed as it is by six large ponds. They have here the Dunn Edge Tool Co. which manufacture 8000 doz. scythes and tJOOO doz. axes per year, Hubbard, Blake Co., who manufacture 4000 doz. of scythes and t'OOO doz. axes, and a new company, Emerson, Stevens Co., with a capacity for making the same as the last named company. In addition to the above there is a Saw Fac tory, an extensive Furniture Factory of Batchelder Bro., the large Foundry and Agricultural Tool Factory of Benjamin Allen, Carriage Manufactory, Laundry and Shirt factory, Grist Mill, etc. The “Cascade” or Falls here are well wor thy of a visit to this place, ami are visited by hundreds as the well beaten paths w ill show.' The lull we should judge to be sixty feet, during the distance of six or eight rods, wind ing in deep cut channels through ledges. Workmen are now busy building “Memori al Hall” in honor of the fallen soldiers. It is in a beautiful grove, being built ot a kind of slate stone, 45 by 55, three stories, including basement, and will cost some 810,000 or more. They have a Soldier’s Fund of some $4000, raised mo tly by public levees. The town voted $i00> to each village towards commemorating their fallen soldiers. A wor thy example for some other places. There is not a known place of liquor selling in the village, consequently they are not filled up with poor and destitute people. This may ac count in a great measure for their prosperity. The principal business men all use their in fluence to do away with rum drinking and selling, as they should in every place. M. Franklin Island Light. South China, Sept. 5th. 1870. Dear Journal:—While visiting the light house on Franklin Island, the following notes were taken which owing to lack of time, are not as full as they would otherwise have been. We started from Davis’ point at 1) A. M. in the schooner Canton, and beat down to the Island, a distance of seven miles, arriving there at 1 o’clock. We were kindly received by the light keeper, Mr. J. W. Farrar, who showed us about the island and explained his duties and other matters connected with the ILht, as fully as our limited stay would per mit. He has kept the light for nine years, and during all this period of time* has not been censured lor any laek in the performance of his duties, lie is obliged to keep a record of j all expenditures, and make quarterly and) yearly returns of the same: keep a record of j all passing vessels, whether they he ships, j schooners, brigs or barques. There is land enough in the Island to furnish pasturage for 1 a cow and a few sheep, besides cutting bay for a winter’s supply, ami raising potatoes for hip own use. He cannot leave tile Island ex- j cept a few hours during the day. He is pro vided with a house, boat, and other necessa ries, which with his salary amounts to $80" per year. The leisure hours of the day he spends in fishing, which nearly or quite sup- j ports his family. Everything about the Is-: land is kept with the greatest care, the point of neatness being carried to the extreme. He informed us that the first tower was built in 180b. ant! was a wooden structure. It was destroyed and rebuilt of stone, but did not stand long. The present tower was erected in 1855; is a brick structure painted white, and I think he said it is seventy-five feet Iron*; the ground to the light. We mount* d up to the light by an iron staiiwny. arranged spiral ly. This lighf.be informed us, is a French invention, and took two generations to bring j it to its present state of perfection. It re volves once during the space of three minutes, and gives a bright flash every minute and a half. The flash is produced by the form of glass. v\ hieh ground on opposite sid* in the form of a “bull's t ve.*’ The clock which keeps the light turning, and the lenses, cost 81-00. The greatest care is taken that no dust even to the minutest quantity gather upon the lenses. Every morning the light is put out, the lenses cleaned.the curtains drawn, the lamp carried down to the loot of the tower, emptied, rinsed out with oil, refilled, and car ried up at night at the hour of lighting. The rules he lias to observe in the discharge of his duties are too numerous to mention here. Any one wishing to get a good idea of the amount of care and labor required to keep on» of these bright beacons in proper order or of the light itself, can do so much better by vi-iting one, than from a description, but they must take phnty of time, lest their notes be as incom plete a# these.

THE PRI SSIANS I.IESl RELY AD VANCING ON PARIS. The Prospects (or Peace more favornblc. THE SURRENDER OF LAON. The Pru ans blow up the Fortifi cations. New York, Sept. 10. A Paris despatch of last night says An interview, Thursday, with Jules l'avre as sured Lord Lyons that the republic did not wish to inherit the wars of an empire; that the Provisional Government would very glad ly conclude peace, as soon as possible, on any terms not absolutely dangerous and dishonor able to France. M. l’avre asked his Lordship if the English Cabinet would interfere, and suggest the terms ol peace to he ottered by Prussia, such as he could he assured France would accept. Ford Lyons replied that he thought England would be delighted to bring the w ar to an end. lie had no authority to say that she would undertake to suggest terms of peace to either combattant. M. F'avre said it would be impossible for France to make any such suggestion, and the interview was brought to a close. Berlin, Sept. 10. Official despatches received in this city to-' day, from the headquarters of King William, announce that the preparations for an imme diate forward movement have been completed. The Prussians design approaching Paris in three separate culums. The Prussian advance have summoned the city ot Laon (capital of the department of Aisue, 14 northeast of Paris) to surrender. A force of Prussians have occupied the ter ritory between Chatteau Thieray and Ecpr eay. The King of Wurtemburg has Issued an address, in which he says he trusts that the result of the war will be not only federalism hut the due independence of the individual States. London, Sept. 10. It is reported that France has agreed to the occupation of Home bv Italy. Latest. London, Sept. 10. The Empress Engcnie and Prince Imperial remain secluded at Hastings. M. Olosaea is attempting vainly to mediate, as he insists, on the integrity of the French soil. It is said that the precautions taken by Vic tor Emanuel are so perfect that the Pope can not escape from Borne. The Hesse Journal admonishes the gov ernment and people to show practical sense, j The silence of death should surround the prisoner, to remind him of the legions who I have perished during the war. In the vast j apartments once tenanted by ius uncle Jerome, and wliicli contain many relies, he may ponder upon his tullcn greatness and the failure of his insane hopes to ruin and enslave Germany. The official account of the loss at Vion villc, Aug. Kith, shows on the Prussian side G2(J officers, 15,925 men, and 1832 horses. This account does not include returns from several cavalry regiments. The gas works of Paris are located outside of the defences, and are likely to fall into the hands of the enemy. A reign of mob and terrorism therefore impends. The uttitude of England is unfavorably re garded on the continent. The Koval Naval Club at Portsmouth gave a dinner to the American Admiral, Glisson and bis officers on Monday. Charette, commanding the remnant of a for cign force at ltume, threatens to resist Italians to the end. The Journals of Havre and Lyons denies that greater measures of defence he adopted as they fear an attack. At Lyons earthworks have been thrown up and preparations made to cut the bridges. The Paris Press complains bitterly of the j compassionate tone of the Journals. Two Generals, Belle, and Belletnar, who re fused articles of capitulation at Sedan, have escaped through the Prussian line. The last named has been commander at St. Dennis. A proclamation was issued to-day by the Mayor of Paris, requesting citizens to pro* j pare their tires so they may be readily extin guished, and also that persons charged with sanitary care of the city, may have easy ac cess to all dwellings. The Moniteur announces the bombardment of Schelestadt has begun. Emile Giradu announces that he will pub lish a new Journal outside of Paris. Most of the Paris Journals publish articles without the signature of the writer. Paris, Sept. 10. Mr. Bnnnoville has resigned ns French Ambassador at Home. The Official Journal of the republic to-day publishes letters ot the Ministers from Italy and Switzerland, recognizing the provisional government, and also the answers of Jules Favre thereto. Special to N. V. Herald. Sedan, Sept. 9. There nre now marching on Paris five corps de armee. The corps of Crown Prince and the Bavarian corps left Hejonr at 5 o’clock. Other corps have been ordered to take their respective positions ten leagues from Paris, by the 14lh inst. There is considerable excitement this eve ning on the receipt of favorable news. A re port is circulated that Marshal Bazainc has .succeeded in cutting his way out of Metz through the Prussian army, and is now march ing toward Paris. This report had a very de cided efleet at the bourse, rentes advancing to 5- francs. The Prussians are marching on Paris very liesurely. 4 P. M. Prussian scouts have appeared at Montmiral and various other places. Two corps of 100,990 men each are advancing in that neighborhood. The telegraph wires to Loissons have been cut. Afternoon papers report the following The Prussians demand the surrender of Eaon. The French commandant opened the gate and the Prussian officers and soldiers entered. When they were well inside the French com mandant tired the mine, blowing up the Cita del, and killing and wounding a great num ber of the enemy. Large numbers of the Garde Mobile are continually arriving in Paris. Special to X. V. Herald. Paris, Sept. 10. An excited crowd was called together in front of the Hotel de Ville to-day, by a publication statement, that King William was determined not to treat with the Hepublie, and in response to repeated calls addressed by Jules Favre. He said no such definite statement had been officially received. If however such action should be taken, all France will fly to arms, and what is a fight i tor national existence, will grow into war of extermination. Not a Prussian shall return home to tell of this last outrage. Favre was tremendously applauded. M. Gambetta in a few eloquent remarks declared the unalterable intervention of France to fight to the last. In a few days we v ill have all Italy not in sympathy alone, but in men and arms. The King of Prussia will do well to look to the safety of his throne. The God of Liberty and Freedom is on our side, and no hand un der heaven can destroy our Hepublie. Various other speakers lollowed, and the temper of the people indicates they that are pre pared to make any sacrifice in defence of 1 Paris. Blrlix, Sept. 10. i The conditions of peace as printed by the Gazette de France are grossly exaggerated. Paris demands no three thousand million as indemnity, nor the surrender ot any portion of the iron clad fleet. King William** rote to the Queen, describ ing liis emotion on meeting the French Em peror. He says—It was overwhelming for a moment. I could not control myself on there meeting him who three years ago I saw on the summit of grandeur. The Emperor was equally moved. X'EOUENCE, oepi. 1U. M. Kiccatti has been appointed Minister of war. Great numbers of people of the pontificial states have petitioned Victor Emanuel to oc cupy Home. Florence, Sept. 'J, via. London, 10. There is increasing agitation at Koine. Gen. Cardona has been ordered to cross the Iron tier if necessary. The lJope has decided to proceed to the Villa Casteilondolf when the Italian troops occupy Home. Nancy, Sept. 9. via. London, 10. Special to N. Y. Herald: Bazainc in a recent sally Inflicted a heavy loss upon Saxon Landwcbr at Pont a Mous son. The Prussians around Strasbourg have cap tured a quantity of munitions intended for the garrison. New York, Sept. 11. A Paris special dated last night, says the prospects ot peace are more favorable. Aus tria and Kussia have consented to negotiate with Germany, and have begun by insisting upon ail armistice. Envoys ot Kussia and j Austria are authorized in the name of all neutral powers, to protect against the dis mcniberiuent of France, and if this inter vention secures a suspension of hostilities, an attempt will at once be made to adjust the terms of peace. Bismarck and Von Beust are in active negotiation, but Bismarck in 1 sists as a preliminary to all arrangements, that three Prustiun army corps should be ’encamped within 20 miles of Paris, us sat isfaction to the public opinion of Germany. There is great indignation at Paris at Earl Granxille’s refusal to aid in peace negotia tions. His course is said to be inspired by the Queen, who approves of King William's recognition of Napoleon as Emperor, and t wishes to make a republic impossible. The provisional government, though assailed by the red republicans and Orleanists succeed admirably. The conduct oi the people of Paris is i. the highest degree orderly and praiseworthy. A Large French army is forming in Nor mandy, which will be commanded by Thero licr in person, and operate in German lines, in case Paris is beseiged. The Germans are said to have lost ou.ouo men in the battle around Sedan. Paris, Sept. 11, via. London, 11. The Eastern Kailway is still open toNogent but the Prussians are at Chat Ian and Theirrey, advancing on La Fcrtssous Juarre. The roll ing stock of the road is withdrawn us the enemy advances, and bridges and culverts are destroyed before the track is abandoned. Prussian scouts are reported at Villiors. Aeron, Vernelil, Chnttilon, Montinesnil, Vail ly, Suraisne, Sessanrie and Lelianny. They maintain strict discipliue and commit no dep redations. Gen. Trocliu lias given orders to level all the woods in sight ot Paris upon the enemy’s approach. The Citadel of Laon has surrendered to save the city from destruction. The Prussians subsequently blew up the fortifications. The Prussians have impressed into the service the young men of Montmirail, wnom they found assembled for conscription. The garrison of Tool still holds out. They j have made several successful sorties. Bazainc does not remain inactive. He is constantly sending out expeditions to hurras the Prussians before Metz. I Asiatic cholera prevails among the troops beseiging Metz. The enemy have captured some guns and munitions of war on the way to Strasbourg. The Emperor of Kussia has conferred the order of St. George upon Prince Louis Wil liam. Duke of Bavaria, for gallantry displayed by the Bavarian troops. M. Olozago, Spanish Ambassador at Paris, has communicated to Jules Favre a formal recognition of the new government by Spain, t Belgium is expected to recognize the republic at once. Baron Merrier, French Minister at Malrid, lias been recalled. The existence of an understanding between the United States, Russia and Italy, looking j to the termination of the war, is mentioned. Paris, Sept. 11. A corps of sappers and miners assisted by tlili inhabitants are felling the forests in the departments of the Seine, and the Seine et Oise, and as tlie Prussians approach the trees will be set on fire. The gasworks in the vi cinity of the city have nearly all been des troyed. London, Sept. 11. Advices from Rome represent that the Pope is making preparations to meet the transfer of the Italian government to Rome. It is re ported that he will retire to the Castle of Gon dolto as soon as tlie Italians approach the city. Madrid, Sept. 11, Tlie government and permanent Commit tee of Deputies have agreed to postpone the convocation of the Cortes. No date has been fixed. Reinforcements to the number of 1.100 leave for Cuba on Monday in tlie steamer Canaries, and 1,000 more on Saturday in tlie Porto Rico. The Santander has already sailed with tfOO, these are the first installment of tire 10.000 soldiers promised. New York, Sept. 11. A London special of last night says It is stated here fora certainty that Napoleon will cede to Prussia enough of the French terri tory to idemnity her lor tlie expenses of the war. Napoleon has stated to Bismarck that had lie not declared war as he (lid. tlie Re publican mob at Paris would have bung Dim. The same correspondent states that the Paris ians will not resist the Prussian troops, but will make the best terms possible. FROM BANGOR. Bancor, bept. 10. Nominations.

The Kidneys are two in number, situated at the upper part of the loin, surrounded by fat. and con stating 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 connected with the bladder. The bladder is composed of various coverings 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 ability; others urinate without the ability to retain. Tins frequently occurs in children. To cure these affections, we must bring into ac tion the muscles, w hich are engaged in their vari ous tuui’tioiiB. It they arc neglected, Grave! or Dropsy may ensue. The reader must also be made aware, that w ho ever slight may be the attack, it is sure to affect the bodily health and mental powers, as our flesh and blood are supported from these sources. Gout, or rheumatism.— Pain occurring in the loins 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 expel let 1 from the bladder, but allowed to remain; it becomes fever ish, ami sediment forms. It is from this deposit that the stone is formed, and gravel ensues. Dropsy is a collection of water iu some parts of the body, and bears different names, according to the parts affected, viz.: when generally diffused over the body, it is called Anasarca; when of the abdomen, Ascites; when of the chest, llydrotlio rax. Treatment.—Helmbold’a liigldv concentrated 1 compound Extract Buchu is decidedly one of the best remedies for diseases of the bladder, kidneys, gravel, dropsical sw ellings, rheumatism,and gouty affections. Under this head we have arranged Dysuria, or difficulty and pain iu passing water, Scanty Secretion, or small and frequent discharges of water; strangury, or stopping of water; Hema turia, or bloody urine; Gout ami Rheumatism of the kidneys, without any change in quantity, but increase in color, or dark water. It was always highly recommended by the late Dr. Physiek, iu these’affections. This medicine increases the power of digestion, ami excites the absorbents into healthy exercise by w hich the watery or calcart(fe> depositions, ami all unnatural enlargements, as well as pain and in flammation, are reduced, and it is taken by men, womeu, and children. Directions for use and diet accompany. Philadelphia, Penn., Feb. 25,18(57. H. T. IIelmbold, Druggist—Dear Sir: I have been a sufferer for upwards of twenty years with gravel, bladder and kidney affections, during which time I have used various medicinal preparations, and been under the treatment of the most eminent physicians, experiencing but little relief. Having seen your preparations extensively ad vertised, I consulted my family physican in regard to using your Extract Buchu. I did this because I had used a’l kinds of adver tised remedies and had found them worthless, and some quite injurious; in fact, I despaired of ever fretting well, and determined to use no remedies »erealler unless I knew of the ingredients, it was this that prompted me to use your remedy. As you advertised that it was compulsed of buchu, cubebs and juniper berries, it occurred to me and ray phys ician as an excellent combination and w ith his ad vice, after an examination of the article and con sulting again w ith the druggist, 1 concluded to try it. I commenced to use it about eight mouths ago, at which time I was confined to my room. From the first bottle 1 was astonished at the ben etb ial effect, and after using it three weeks was able to walk out. 1 felt much like writing to you a full statement of my case at the time, but thought my improvement might only be temporary, and r therefore concluded to defer, and see it it w'ould effect a perfect cure, knowing then it would be ot greater value to you and more satisfactory to me. 1 uni now able to report that a cure is effected, after using the remedy for five months. 1 have not used any now for three months, and led as well in all respects as 1 ever did. Your Buchu being devoid of any unpleasant taste And odor, a nice tonic and in vigorator of the system, 1 do not mean to be without it whenever occasion may require its use in such affections. M.

Does a little extra exertion produce palpitation of the heart Does your liver, or urin ary organs, or your kidneys, frequently get out of order?

Do you pursue your business with the same energy? l)o you feel as much confidence in yourself Are your spirits dull and 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, and sexual excesses, arc all capable of pro ducing a weakness of the generative organs. The organs of generation, when in perfect health, make th> 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 eoinj plain of being melancholy, of nervousness, ot pal pitation of the heart. They are never afraid they cannot succeed in business; they don't become sad and discouraged; they are always polite and pleas ant in the company of ladies, and look you and them right in the face—none of vour downcast looks or any other meanness about them. I 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 or for. How manv men’ from badly cured diseases, from the effects of self-abuse and excesses, hrve 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, and almost every other form of disease which humanity is heir to. and the real cause of the trouble scarcely ever suspected, and have doctored for all but the right one. it _ Diseases of these organs require the use of a Diu retic.

Allow mo to call your attention to my PREPAR ATION OF COMPOUND EXTRACT BUCHU. The component parts are BUCHU, Long Leaf, CUBEBS, JUNIPER BERRIES. Mode of Preparation.—Buehu, in vacuo. Juniper Berries, by distillation, to form a line gin. Cubcbs extracted by displacment with spirits ob tained from Juniper Berries; very little sugar is used, and asmall proportion of spirit. It is more palatable than any now In use. Buehu, 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 ot ingredients. The Buehu in my prepar ation predominates; the smallest quantity ol the other ingredients are added, to prevent fermenta tion; upon inspection, it will be found not to be a Tincture, ns made in Pharmacopeia, nor is it a Syrup—and therefore can be used in cases where fever or inflammation exists. In this, you 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 leeling of confidence, I am, very respectfully, II. T. HELMBOLD. Chemist and Druggist of 19 Years’ Experience.
