The Prussian conditions contained in the letter of Prince Reuse are stated to be as follows: The exclusion of Austria from the Germavie Confed- eration, The exclusive command of the military and naval forces of the Confederation by Prussia. The diplomatic representation of Germany abroad and the annexation to Prussia of the Duchies and part of the territory already occupied. La France further states that it has reason to believe that the Emperor immediately dispatched to London and St. Petersburg the important communication of Prince Reuss as raising questions of European interest, which can only be settled by concert of the great Powers, A dispatch from Berlin of July 9 says: An article of some importance has been published in the Norddeutsel semi-official ww Allgeemeine Zedung on the Austrian proposals of peace, The writer expresses his be- lief that nothing can more plainly show to what extremi- ties Austria has been reduced by the success of the Prus sian arms than the proposals which have been submitted to the Emperor of the French. Nevertheless, the total silence on the subject of the “just claims of Prussia” is anything but gratifying.

RANCIS JOSEPH, “Given at my residence in the capital of Vieuna, tuis 10th day of July, 1866." et The Position of Austria. From The London Times We have never read sadder words than those which the Emperor of Austria addresses to his people, The reverses of bis army, the occupation of one of his ingdoms, the danger of his capital, uave pr bowed down that proud and confi. dent spirit. Knowing what mammer of man Francis Joseph is by nature, we may judge of the bumiliation he felt in doing what he has done, and swing what he has said. A month ago be commanded a splendid ary, the largest ever brought to. gother under the standards of the Empire. He was the undis- puted leader of the German Governwents, while bis adversary stood re ard threatened by all the most important of them. He had given orders to his representative in the Diet to move a resolution which it war supposed would foroe Prus- sia to succumb, It was known that the Governments of fonr- fifths of the German people would support him and range them. selves agains the Prussian aggressor. The most experienced and celebrated General of the Empire was iv command of the Austrian Army, and his confidence had extended itself to all ranks and classes of the Austrian people. Benedek believed in himself, and the Emperor and al his subjects believed in Benedek. The world in geperal could not escape some. og of this false confidence. People knew that one the largest aud best orgavized armies in Europe occu. pied Rouamin, aid it was certain that in a few bours it could take Jtstesion of Saxony, and be ready to execute its threat of settling the question of the Elbe Duchies by a march ou Berlin.

Yet in this misfortune tic x... persr does not lose his aignity, md the address Le bas just issued will move the hearts of all wlo read it. The chances of war and the positon he has accepted with regard to France forbid the Empero. to use a defiant tone, but he tells bis subjects, and no doubt With ail sincerity, that he will not sanction a treaty of peace bywhich the essentisl con- dition of Au-trie's position as a great”ower would be shaken. “sooner than this should be the case, declares the Emperor, “J am resolved to carry on the war tithe utmost extremity, and in this I am sare of my paople's appoval.” There is notu- ing iu the history of Austria which shuld give us reason to tris series of trials and reverses, reliecd by few gleams of victory.

Itweems that no opposition was expected to the progress of the It. lian army as f.r as the position it proposed to take up. The fullowing is one of the most noteworthy pas- sages of Marmors's dispatch: “Our entrance on the territory occnpied by the enemy was effected at all the points—these were five, without resistance and almost without an encounter. The division of cavalry only found some weak patrols upon the nurierous roads whieh radi- ate from the Mincio into the plain of Verona, and made a few prisoners. The complete absence of hostile forces from the plain in front of Verona was a confirmation of our information, which was to the effect that the prineipsl concentration of the Austrian troops had been behind the Adige, and that they re- nounced the defense of the territory comprised between that river and the Mincio, Therefore the supreme command of the »TMYy came te tho decision to throw itself boldly between the fi of Verona, Peschiera and Mantua, cutting off the communications between them, and taking up a strong posi tion between the plain of Villafranes and the group of bills between Valweio, Somma Campagna and Casteluuova, the which weuld fvor the successive development of the opera. tions contemplated,” Thus is the idea of the movement clearly set forth; it is plain that the Itlian staff was wisivformed, and possibly the Austrians had taken ecarethat it should be so.

A RECONNOISSANCE, On Monday, the 2d of July, Prince Frederick Charles halted with the First Army at Kommenitz, in order to allow the Crown Prince time to come np to Miletin, a town five miles east of the village of Kommenitz and to get infor- mation of the movements of the Austrians, That afternoon be sent out two officers to reconnoiter beyond Horitz; both fell in with Austrian troops, and had to fight and ride hard to bring their information home saf-ly. Major von Uugar, who went in the direction of Koniggris 2, escorted by a few dra- goons, came upon a large force of Austrian cavi ry and Jiigers bef re he got to the little river Bistritz, over which the road from Horitz te Konigg itz erosses,sbout half way between those two towns, A Arr Ho of \wvalry made an immediate dash to catch him, and he and is dragoous had to vide for their lives; the Austrians pursued, and those best mounted came up to the Prussians, but not in sufficient numbers to stop them, sud after a running skirwisb, in which Vou Ungar re ceived a lance thrust in the side which carried away wost of his coat, but hardly toe skin, this recounoiteriug party sofily gained the outposts of their own army. Mors on t ussian right the other reconnoitering officer also fonad the Ausirians in force, and was obliged to retire rapid'y. From tae reports of these oficers, and from other information, Prince Frederick Chail's determined to attack, =o last nicht he 1ssucd orders for tun immediate advance of bis own army beyond Hb 13, and sent Lieut, Von Normand with a letter to the Crown Prince, asking him to push forward in the morning from Mitetin and attack the right flank of the Austrians, winle he himself engaged them in front, ‘There was some fear thot the Austrian cavalry patrols and detachments which were prowl ing uboat would intercept the aid-de-camp and stop the ietter, but Von Normand succeeded in avoidiog them, and got sufely to the Crown Prince’s headquarters at 1 o'clock this morning and rejiinel Frince Frederick Charles at four to report the success of his mission, and to bring to the leader ot the rst armv an assurance of the coi, eration of the second.

Long before miduigat the troops wee all in motion, and at 1} io the moring the General Staff] £0 ominenitz, The mom ovcasioncliy shone out brightly, but was generally hidden be- bind elonds, and taen could bo distinetly seen the decuying bivenac fires in the places which had been vecapied by tie there to fill np the gaps ranks.” 4 1 driven out by a rush of the Prussians, retired, Jiigers fired blindly where they could tell boy bearing that the attacking columns were, and the shots tremendously the Prussians in their close formations; but the latter ha proved their positions, althongh slowly, snd by dint of shoef courage and perseverance, for they lost men at every yard their advance, and in some places almost paved the way with wounded, Then, to help the infantry, the Prussian arplier] tarned its fire, regardless of the enemy's batteries, on the lazes, and made tremendous bavoe among the houses, krowens aud Dobeloitz both caught fire, and the sbelle guiekly and with fearful effect among the defenders of the \ming hamlets; the Austrian guns also played upon the at.

In and around the vil.ages the fizhting contivued for nearly an hour; thea the Pir. oe! tufantry, who bad beon theth w war o way up the slope into a line with their batteries, above Sadowa was strongly held, and ‘hat between and Besatek, teeming with riflemen, stood to bar the 7th Division. But Gen, Fransky, who commands this ai vision, was not to be easily Stopped, and he sent his infantry at the wood, and turned bis artillery on the Austrian bat The 7th Division began firing into the trees, but could not make any impression, for the, defenders were cesled, and musketry fire was useless agalust them. Fraosky let them go, and they dashed 1n with the bayonet. The Austrians would not retire, but waited for the strug and in the wood above Benatek was fou ht ont one fiercest combats which the war has seen, The 27th Prussian regiment went in pearly 3000 strong, with 90 officers, and came out on the further side with only two officers and be- tween 300 and 400 men standiog; all the rest were killed or wounded, The other regiments of the division also suffered much, bt uot in the same proportion; but the woed wae carried, The Austrion Line was now driven in on boc flanks, but its commander formed a new line of battle a little higher u the Bil. rouud Lissa, still Lolding the wood W lies a ve Sadowi, Then the Prussian artillery was sent across the Bistrita, and began to fire upon the new Austrian position, At the same time the smoke of General Ilerwartl's advance was geen moving toward the Austrian left; for he bad at Nee 1tz, a village about seven miles lower down the Bistrita Sadowa, found a brigade of Saxon troops. with some Austrian cavelry, and was driving them toward the position at Lived, himself following in ncn a direction that it appeared he wou turn the Anstrisn lef. flank. But the Austrian Commander seemed determined to hold his position, and heavy masses of Iafantry and cavalry could be seen on the upper part of the slope. The Prussian infantry, which had taken the villages of Sa- dows and Dob laitz, was now scut againt the wood, whieb, above these places, runs along the side of the Sadowa and Lipa road, ‘Lney advanced againstit, but did not at first much impression, for, the Austilsns being here again eon: cented, the fire of the needle.gan did not tell, and whole bat- tery placed at the far end of the wood fired through the trees, and told on the Prussian ranks with awful effect. But the as- sailants fought on, at last uroke down the obst.cles at the en- trance, and then dashed in, The fighting continued from tree to tree, and the Austrians made many a rush to recover the lost position of the wood, but iu this close fizhting their boy- ish troops went down line pinep ns before the strong men of the Eighth Division; but wheu the dfenders drew back a Viitle, and their artillery played into the tiees, the Praesians sutt red fearfully, and about half way up in ti wool the fight became stationary.

Day gradually began to dawn, but with the first symptoms of sanrise a Jriz ling ran come on, which lasted until late in the atternoon, The wind inercased, and blew coldly upoa the soldiers, for tuey were short of bola sleep aud food POSITION OF THE PRUSSIANS, At daybreak tue troops had tiken uv their positions to attack the Anstrians. The main boly of the army was ut Milowitz, a village on the road from Ioniz to Koag2ra 3; the 7th Division, under Gen, Fraosky, was at Cesekwiiz on the loft and the 4th and 5th Divisions at the villages of Dristau and Psauch on the right, while Gen. von Bitterfeld with the #th and part of the 7h Corps Armée was sent tothe town of Neubidsaw, on the extreme right, 10 mies from Milowits About 4 o'clock the army began to advance, and marched slowly up the gentle hill which leads trom Milowiiz to the vil- lage of Dub, five miles neorer Kduiggriitz. Tue corn lay hevy and tangled from the rain upon the ground; the skirmishers pushed through it nimbly, but the battilions which followed beuind in crowded eo umns toilad heavily through the dow. beaten crops, and the artillery horses had to strain hard on their traces to get the wheels of the gun carriages through the sticky sil. At 6 the whole army was che up to Duo, but it was not sllowed te go upon the sunmit of the slope, for the ridge on which Dub stands bad hidden all its motions, ar d the Austrians could see nothing of the troops coliected benind the crest, and perhaps thong it that no Prussians were near them, except ordinary advaneed posts; for tha covalry vedettes which had been pushed firwar) thus fur over night remained on the top of the ridge, as if nothing were geiug oa beliud them, From the top of the slight elevation on which the village of Dub stands, the ground slopes gently down to the river Bis. tritz, which the road erosses at the vilige of Sadowa, a nile and a quarter from Dab. From Sadowa the ground again rises beyond the Bistritz, and to the little village of Lissa, cou- spieaous by its caurch tower standing at the top of the gentle hill, a milo and a balf from Sidowa, A person standing this morning on the top of the ridge saw Sadowa below him. built of wooden cottag-s, surrounded by orchards, and coull dis tinguish among its houses several watermills, but these were pot at work, for all the inhabitants of the village Lad been sent away, and white coat here and there among the cottages was not a peasant’s bloase, but was the uniform of an Ausirian soldier; three quariers of a mile down the Bistritz a big red brick house, with a brick ciimney near it, looked like a manufactory, and some large wooden buildings alongside it were uumistakably warehouses; c'ose to these a few wooden cottages, probaoly mesmt for the workmen employed at the manufactory, comoleted the village of Dohiluitz A little more than a mile still further down the Bistritz stood the viliage of Mokrowens, like most Bohemian country vil ages, built of pime- wood cottages enclustered in orchard trees, The ehatesa of Dobalicha stands midway between Dohilnitz end Mokrowons asa kuoll overhanging the river. Behind Doliliitz ana between that vil.ige and the high road which runs through Badowas, there lies a large thick wood; many of the trees bad been cut down about 10 feet above the round, and the cut-down branches had been twisted together etween the standing tra: ks of the trees which were nearest to the river, to make au entrance into the wood from the frout extremely diffi sult. On the open elope between Dohiluitz and Dohalicha along the groun 1 there seemed to ran a dark dotted line of stumwpy bushes, but the teleseope showed that these were guns, and that this battery alone contained 12 pieces, Looking to the left, up the course of the Bistritz, the ground was oped between the orchards of Sadowa and the trees which row round Benatek, a little vilage about two miles above dows, which marked the right of the Austrian position, except where, midway batween these villages, a broad belt of tir wood runs for three-quatters of a mile. Above and beyond these villages and woods in the course of the river, the spire ot Lissa was seen, b low it a few bouses, gardens and patches of fir-avod, and little to the left, rather down the bill, were seen the cottages of the hamlet of Cisliwes, BEGINNING OF THE BATTLE. The air was thick and hazy, the rain came down steadily, aud the wind blew bitterly cold, while the infantry and artil- lery were waiting bebind the brow of the hill near Dub, At7 o'clock Prince Frederick Charles pushed forward his cavalry and horse urtiliery. They moved down the slope toward the Bistritz at a gentle trot, slipping about on the greasy nd but keepiug most beautiful lines; the lance flags of the hinns, wet with the rain, flapping heavily against the staves. Atthe bottom of the hil the trumpets sounded, and in making their movements to gain the bridge the squadrons began Pd and hovering about the side of the river, as if they courted tho fire of the enemy. Then the Austrian guus opened npon them from a battery placed in a field near the village at which thie main road crosses the Bistritz, and the battle of Sadowa began. The first shot was fired about balf past 7. The Prussian Horse Artillery, close down to the river, replied to the Aus. trian guns, but neither side fired heavily, sud for half an hour the cannonade consisted of but little moee than single shots. At a quarter before 8 the King of Prussia arrived on the field, and very soon n the Horse Artillery were reéaforced by other field batteries, aud the Prussian gunners began firing their shells quickly into the Austrian fon. But us soon as the Prussian fire actively commenced, Austrians guns to appear, ss If by magic, in every point of the position; from every road, from every viliage, from the orch of Mokrow- ens, on the Prussian right, to the orohard of Benatek, on their left, came flashes of fire and whizzing rifle shells, which, burst. ing with o sharp crack, sent their splinters rattiing among the guns, gunuers, and horses, often ing man or horse, sometimes dismounting a gun, bat always ploughing up the earth and scattering the wud in the men's faces. But the Austrians did not contine themselves to firing on the ar- tillery alone, for they threw their shells up the slope opposite to them toward Dab, and one shell came slap into a squadron of Uilsns, who were close beside the King; burying itself With 4 Beavy tug hed ground, it blew up columus of mud 8 0 Luo air, bareting a woment after, uced the squadron by four files, ii A S088 82DMENT OF THE VILLAGE OF BENATEK. 8 soon as the cannonade in frout became serious, of the Seventh Division began to bombard the vi the ute tek, on the Austrian nil t. ‘The Austrians retar. shot for shot, and neither side cither gained or lost ground. lu the center, too, the battle was very even; the Prussians pushed battery after battery into the action, and kept up a tremendous fire on the Austrian guns, but these retn it, and some- times with interest, for the Austrian artillery officers knew their ground, and every shell fell true; many officers and men fell, and many horses were killed or wounded. Aore Kran: kentiligers were seut down to the batteries, and always re turned carrying on stretchers men whose wounds bad been hastily bound up under fire, but wito seemed to b too much stauned to suffer much trom pain Gradually the Prassian canncnade appeared to stronger, and the Austrian batteries between Donelnitz and Dohalicha retired higher up the Lill, but the guos at Mokrowens still stood fast, and the Prussians had not yet crossed the DBistrits: but many guus were now turned on Mokrowens, and at 10 o'clock the battery there was obliged to retire a little. THE PRUSSIAN INFANTRY UP, W hile this cannonade lad been going on, some of the in. fantry had been moved down toward the river, where they took suelter from the fire under a convenient undulation of ground. The 8th Division came down on the left band side of the causeway, und, under the cover of the rising in the ground, formed its columns for the attack on the village of Sadowa; while the 3d and 4th Divisions, on the right-hand side of the road, prepared to storm Dohelnitz and Mokrowens. But a little before their preparstions were com the village of Beuatek, on the Austrians, right, esnght fire, and the 7th Di. vision mode a dash to secure it, but 'the Ausirians were not driven out by the flames, and here for the first time in tne baile was there hand to hand fighting. The 27th Regiment led the attack, and rushed into the orchards of the village, the buroing bouses separated the combatants, they poared volley atter volley at each other through the flames; but the Prus. siavs found means to get round the burning houses, and, tak. ing the defenders in reverse, foroed tug to retire With the FS kN Jogs Of waay prisoners, "A GEN#RAYL ABSIOTY kb he It was 10 o'clock when Prince Frederick Charles sont Gen.

They laid down their helmets and koap- sacks on the ground, and advarced to tue river, The King was now near to Distritz, avd the tioops cheered him loudly as they marched nto the battle, They went over the Sadowa bridge, dizappesred into the wood, aud sgon the increa noise of mu-ketry told they bad begun to fight; but the Aus- trians gunners sent salvo after sa vo among thei, and the d.d uot push the vaitle forward more thao a few bundr yards, for they fell back themselves, und they could not reach the enemy, Not only did the trap ments of the shell fly about them, scattering death and swiul goshes among their ranks, but the portions of the tress, torn by the artillery fire, flew thickly about, huge, ragged spiluters, that caused even more frigntful wounds, Merwarsh, too, seemed checked anon the right.

Prince Frederick Charles put himself at the head of Lis regiment, and dashed oves the Sadowa bridge and up the road, followed by ull Lis light cavalry. On gaining the top of the Lipa slopes the retreating bat talions of the Austrians were secn running across a bollew im the ground which lics between Lipa and the vilige of Strese- itz, whieh lies about two mules furiber south, The Prussian artillery halted on the summic of the Lipa hill, and fired shells rapidly, which burst with terribls precision over the heads of the fugitives, The cavalry flew forward in pursuit, but the Prince, after leading a short way, bad to go to superintend the general mevement, for the Austrian batteries had taken post in the Streselitz ridge, and were firing heavily against the pursuing Prussians.

Even yet there was hope for the Austrians! There on the Prusaian front wheeled a force of horse with which a Murat or a Kellerman, or a S«idlitz could have won a battle and save! an empire. There, still unshaken, were at laast 50,000 wen, of whom Sepreely one had ever fired a shor. The indomitaltls Austrian art llery still turned hundreds of muzzles on the enemy's guns, and girt their men iu a band of fire. To let slip that cavalry on both sides of Klum, to crash through mn. faders ng gums, seemed really worth doing, though failure woul have made the difference between defeat and a rout It would have been a supreme deed fit for such a force to accom: ptish or to perish in attempting. And there were Lo patural abstacles visible from the tower to a grand charge, ‘The Prussian risht separated from its center and left, would have been rolled down into the viliey mmong the Austrian and ut. terly crushed and tke Austrian center and left have been liberated to continue their contest with the enemy. Momeuts were precious. ‘Phe Prussian fire became more severe, the wavering of the Austrians greater. ‘I'be faling of trees on the Prague road, tne rush of fugitives, the ne x approach of the Prussian shells to tho place, some of them burstiog over the railway staion, were awful warnings of the stato of the bat], All the roads were blocked with retreating trains and wagons, Men were throwing down their arms and wading through the nun. dations. Tre Austrian gaoners on the causeway began to catch a sight of tue Prossians near at hand in the woods, and opened on them with shrapuel and sucdl.

The spirit of Bismark or bis genius ruled the battlefield. While the Austrian was hesitating the Prassian was acting. T'he lines of dark blue which came in sight from the right teemed from the vols below as if the earth yiclled them. They filled the whole background of the awful picture of which Klum wus the center, They pressed down or the left of the Prague road. In square, in column, deployed or wheeling hither and thither—overs wiere pouring in showers of deadly precis'on—penetrating the whole line of the Austrians, still they coul not'force their étubborn enemy to fly. On all sides they met brave but unfortunate men, ready to die, if they could do no more. At the side of tbe Prague road the fight went on with incredible vehpmence, The Austrians bad still an immense force of artiller?, end although its concentrated fire swept the ground betore it, its effect was lost ia some de- gree by reason of the rising ground above, and at last by its divergence 10 so many poists to anawer the enemy's cannon, Many Austriins must have fallen by their own artillery.

The details of a great battle like that of Konig- gris or Snaowa are pot quickly lrarned. Few have an op- portunity of seeing the general plan of attack and defense, and sti'l fewer can erstand it. 1o the magnitude of the armies e as well as in the importance of the interests at stake the late battie hos seldom been surpassed, Nearly a quarter of a million of men were arrayed on either side; they extended over great expanse of country, and were lod by Royal Gener- els who exercised al nost independent commands, As military historians have disputed for half a cantary ahout the incidents of and Waterloo, it may be that this battle, whieh in tude equals doipsio and far surpasses Waterloo, will for many a year be the sul of controversy. But we are happ in having at the seat of war a correspondent who is well quall- Red to form a jodgment on such operations, and who has pro- duced a description, which, considering the circuiastances un- dor which it was written, is a marvel of accurate observation. It is not too much to say that we Jean frem his letter more than was known of the action by ile gre.t majority of those who took part in it, The public is indeed, well served by those who narrate these wonderful events of war almost before the smoke has c'cared away from the battlefield. We learn so speedily and with such comparative accuracy the general plan of an engagement that we are apt to forget how recent these advantages have been, and to undervalue the as sistance which tho narrative of a competent eye wit mess, written on the yori field and op the ig day of battle, gives, not suly to Lis cotemporaries, but to future historians. The grandfathers of the Jrosent generation were very differently situated with respect to the battles which dis. tinguished the early part of the present century. en ap.

And what a battle it was ns hore described within a few hours after the Austrians bad bean swept from the field, and while the Prussians wers st 1l pursuing their rotreating legious! There has been nothing like it in our time, and only once 1n the great war of the Frenca Empire has there been such a contest and such a carnage. The whole Prussian anl Austrian armios were engaged; all that tuese two m:litary Moparehies, fresh from the repose f along pence, conld place iu the fic] was there. dhe delay of Bonedok had enabled the two main armies of the Prussians, each one of them a nation: 1 Vost in itself, to combine, and, as their losses had not been large in the previous encounters, they confronted tie enemy 240.000 strong. ‘The Austrians are supposed to have had an equal nmaber. A survey of the fiell of batile with a good wap wilshow the extent of ground over which these im. mense levies of men were spread, It is, indeed, wonderful that such extensive operations should have been begun and completed in a single day. Where nearly 500,0°0 men aud 1,500 guns are in the fi-ld we might expoot’a conflict as lorg us Leipsic. But the irresistible onset of the Prussians und the skill of their Generals decided the battle in a singe long Summer's day. ‘The narrative of its incidents given by our correspondent doe justice to the obstinacy and courage of tho Austrians, but raises higher our estimate” of their opponents, It is evident that the Austrians were very strongly posted, and that it was a work of daring and endurance to dislodge them, Only Generals baving compiete confllence in thom. selves and their troops would have ventured on such au en- terprise. Gen. Benedek could have little hopo of aobiev- ing the ohjots of the war by taking up his “partly intrenobed position.” The Austrians conld uot by holding their ground in Bohemia either deliver flanpver and the Duchics or make those conquests «f FP nssian territory which were to cuxble them to cede Venetia with grace. But if their design bad been merely to protect their own territory, they, perhaps, cou'd not have done better, They had a position well protected by slope and wood, and they made a eood nse ot it, Their artill ry appears to hinve been excel:nt. They mowed down the advanciig Prossiaus, inflicting on them terrible losses, while they themselves were almost unirjured, From our correspondent’ account we must judge that the Prossians did not win the day mercly by the possession of a suprror arm, Through a great part of their advance the neeclsy-gun gave them no superiority. The Austrians were protected by the nature of tueir posi tion, and musketry fire was useless against them, The cap tare of the wood above Sadowa wus wecomplished by real hard fighting. The Austrines wonld not retire, hat waited for the struggle. “The 27th Prussian Regiment went in nearly 3 000 rong, with 9) oficers, and came out on the further side with only two officers and between 300 and 400 men, standing; all the rest wore killed or wounded.” Again, when a second wood opposed their progress, “they advanced against it. but did not at first make mush impression: for, the Austrians being bere again conce.lsd, the five of the needle gua did not tell, and a whole battery pirced ot the for end of the wood fired through toe trees and told on tae Pros sin ranks with awful effer,” These nnd ot erincidents mike it clear that the greatest battle of the present age was won oy the saperior prowess of the victors, and was not the conse quence of a merely mechasical advantage, The needlc-zun added, no doubt to the completeness of the victory, but if the Prussians had possessed no such weapon, the spirit of their onset, aud the skilifnl arrangements by which a part of their rrmy was brought on to the flank and rear «f the enemy, woud he Austrians trom their position.

For more than a year was the inventor kept in suspense. He was bandied about from one official to another during all this time, merely to be told at last that Government did not feel disposed to alter the principle «f the arms employed. «It was then that in disgust he brought his invention to Paris, and he obtained an interview with the Emperor, who listened with the greatest apparent interest to the description of the gun, examined the plans and seccions brought by the officer, wuch Questioned the riority of the invention over others which had been laid before him, declared it seemed to him liable to the great objection of being too delicate for field use, and abruptly sounded the little gong which stands npon his bureau, and slightly rising when the usher entered at his sum- mons, dismissed the visitor to admit other importunates, It waa then that Le betook himself, armed with his needle gun, to Hollaud.

A curious essay might be written on the effects of civilization in mitigating or increasing the horrors of war, There is no doubt, on the one band, that the cultivation of science and the development of ingenuity provide us with in. struments of destruction infinitely more terrible than any which have been known to former ages.

We proceed to make some extracts from the paper: BISMARL'S POLITICAL RELIGION, In his recent di-piteh and cures.

How eagerly would Count Bis mark now order the Prussian soldier, however “‘regr fu ly obedient.” to wear the German cockade next to the Prossing, not only on his helmet, but on every possible part of bis uni- form; and how gladly would he allow German flags to wave over all the Prussian Goverument baildings, although ne once in Erfurt looked npon the presence of these flags ns a wour ful sign of the times" if be oody conld thereby lure the arms and the heart of Germany into bis eamp.

Noiwifhstund- ing this, he is anything but vacillating and changeable, Un. pHncipled in the choico of his means, be is coshakes in his conviction that the power of I'russia must decline if she does pot increase ber territory in Germeny by main force. This convic ion is the sum total of his political religion, Oa this int he is, with all his frivolity, a true facatic; and for tuis ol ject be is ready to make any sacrifice, and brave every danger. BISMARK AS A DEPUTY, Tn the year 1851 alone be was called to order more frequently than the Speaker of the House of Commons has found it ve- cossary to doin ten sessions together, This, however, grieved Lim but little, d he defied the President, his bell, the protests of the House, and the opposition of public opinion alike. In the game year, 1851, he cane forward as the advocate of the old system of cose trading. Again, going back to the widdle ages, he Ludly expressed a wish—scarcely enceivable, if we consider the progress w hich has been made in political econo. my during the present century —that every trade should limit the number of its appreations, and be empowered by law to fix a price for each quality of the goods it sells, Tois he bell to be the only mode of protecting the working-clisses against the oppression of capitel sts Oue of the chief subjects of dis. cussion in that year was the establishment of the right of the Chamber to vote the supplies; aud during the debates on this pointit was Bismark, who, by his coutemnp uous aggress ve cou- duet, gave rise to some sceuos of extraordinary sgiwstion, He denied, as he afterward did when te became a Minister, that the House could claim this right, wiih 1s swerfu tho surest guaranty of its existence, and its most defense against any unconstitutional attack from the other States of the realm. When he was referred to the con stitution which the King had sworn to preserve, ho replied in bis ususl frivolous and off-haud way that he did not see why oll that relates to the constitution should be surrounded by a sort of halo, and every joke upon it be regarded us a desecra- tion. He himself bad sworn, said be, to the cousiitution—not to the existing one only, but also any future constitution, with all its amendments, Ile would, therefore, treat with utter contempt the righteous anger of the Liberals at bis turuiog the constitution iuto ridicale,” When Count Schwerin, who occapied the presidential chair, upon this remarked that he would ve obliged to call the Lonorable member to order if bo made the constitution of the country an object of derision, he insolently replied that ho would not accept any warnings; and that bitherto be had given the President no vocasion to call him to order; and when the President carried oat his threat be shook himself like a dog who has Just comes ont of the water, and made some more 1emarks, which we will not repeat Lere. PISMAUK AS A DIPLOMATIST, His diplomatic life dates from the Summer of the year 1971, He had wo given up that veneration, or, as he caee himself expressed it, adoration of Austria, whieh he bad imb. hed with his mother's milk.” This feeling had been reglaced by the conviction that Prussia conld not fulfill its mission in Ger: wany until Austria wes driven out of the Bund.

He was the last man to be awed by the stiff boating of Count Rechbery, and the scenes ho had with Lim were not less Riguant la their way than Lis forer encounters with Herr on Vincke and Count Schwerw, and bis more recent ones with Grabow, Virchow, and Jerr Von Bokum-Dolffs, With Herr Yon Vincke he bad already bad a duel, which, however, was followed by no serious 1osulte, although Bismark 1s an excellent shot, while Von Viccie, being short-sighted, Is but moderately versed in tbo art of dueling. But even toant Kechberg was once so deeply insulted w him that a challenge seemed to be inevitable, Fortunately, the friends of both iu. terfered an prevented the scandal. On another occosion the Imperial President of the Dict—whetder accidentally or pur. poscly is not know n—appeared at one of its sittings, contrary to custom, in morning drese.

BaveN BApeN, Thusday, July 5, 1856, The surrender of the Hanoverian army to the Prussians which took place on Fridsy morning (Jue 29) has been a sovere blow to the hope of the Confederation, which were too extravagantly elsced by the report of Austrian suc- cesses in Boliemis Tho decisive battle was fought at Langensalza op (he 27th, the Prussian troops under the command of Gon.

Some of the battalions did great execution with the bayonet, and with their clubbed: muskets. Several of the neighboring villages were wrapped 1n flames, Ninety pieces of artillery, on the Prussian side, were in operation at once. In mavy places, the battls was a regular hand-to-hand fight, Every Prus- sian regiment took astand of colors from the enemy, Joth tides evidently fought lke tigers, and the carnage was terrific. The Prussians, though elaunog thewictory, admit a loss of about 5,000 men, including a large number of their bravest officers. The Austrian loss cannot be estimatod at 4 much lower figure. According to the latest accounts, the first army corns of the Austrians, and the Saxon army corps were foreed to fall back in the dirce- tion of Konigsgriitz on the 30th of June, while the Prussians were making successful progress in Bo- hemia. On Tuesday, July 3, we have the telographic account of a battle on the road between Konigsgiitz and Josephstadt, which was at first favorable to the Austrians, but after a severe conflict of eight hours resulted ina decided Prussian vietory. The Prussian loss was about 15,000, During the week the Austrian loss is estimated at over 40,000, Affairs on the Rhine, which have bean comparatively quiet until within a few days past, appoar to be coming to a crisis. The railway and ‘steamboat communication has bocn suspended, and in many places the rails have been torn up. The postal and telegraphic intercourse by the usnal routes is cut off between Stuttgart, Frankfort and other citics of the Confederation, sud the Prussian Province on the Rhine.

It is commanded by an officer of high rank, ol is furnished with a complete equipment of every- thing necessary to the effective discharge of the Good Samaritan duty with which it is intrusted. In the Con. foderate army the corps is distinguished by a white badge, with red cross, instead of the national colors of black, red and gold, A similar corps is attached to the Prussian regiments, and accomplished excellent service in the re- cent bloody conflicts. AUSTRIA ON HER KNEES—APPEAL TO LOUIS NAPOLEON —PUBLIC OPINION=—PROSPEUT OF PEACE, From an Occasional Correspondent. BADYN Bape, Friday, July 6, 1266, The lotus-caters of beautiful Baden wero pleasantly aroused from their dreamy repose yosterday by the ane nouncement of a telegram from Paris, which long before this hus made the tour of Europe. Every recent stop of Austria Las been attended with signal disaster. The crowning battle on the 3d, of which the details have not yet been published, appears to have crushed ont all heart and hope. Gen. Benedek telegraphs to the Emperor that the ammunition got damp, aud they were compelled to vield to the torrible execution of the Prussian needle-guns (bieech-loading rifles, not even of the most approved cea. struction). But it was not merely that they were unable to keep their powder dry that the” Austrians lost the day. There are not wanting strong suspicions of treachery on the part of several of the leading Generals, threo of whom have already been arrested on tho charge and sent to Vienna for tris], Benedek bimself is not free from cen- sure, and, if not guilty of treason, he has atleast lost his reputation for military capacity. The Austrian ranks have been thinned by frequent desortions, especially among the Italian recruits in whom cven the rigor of Austrian dis- ¢ipline hus not been able to quench the fires of patriot. 15m. It is no wonder that the Emperor Francis Joseph found Limselt in a dilemma, and despaired of relieving his ruined fortunes. It must be a bitter repast of “humble pie” that he is now forced to eat. He fully accepts the ideas of Louis Napoleon expressed in the fummous letter of June 11 to Drouyn de Lhuys, offers to place Venclis at the disposal of the Emperor of the French, and solicits his mediation for the establishment of peace between the bel ligerents, The Emperor hastens to accept the overtures of Austria, and at pice Pups an armistice to the Kings of russia and Italy. “hatever may be the result, Louis Napoleon will doubtless get u large slice of the loaf, and butter his bread on both sides. The effect on the Gers mans in this vicinity is certainly exhilarating, though they have suffered too many disappointments to be confi- dent, much less sanguine, Everybody sighs.for peace, The war 1s detested as the game of politicians, and it is a hard task to German good-uature to shed fraternal blood m a contest which seems to them unworthy of the sacri. fice.

At Niemes, the intersection of the western road from “Teschen and the northern from Littau, and at Dauoa, a small place south-west of Niemes, they encamped. On the 27th “of June, the vanguard of the Prussian army was at Hidhnerwasser, where a ight took placo between a sinall body of Austrisn hussars and a squadron of Prussian cavalry. The conflict was severe, and the Austrians were compelled to give way before the superior Prussian force. ‘The next day (June 28) the Prussians advanced to Minchengriitz, where a desperate struggle took place, and thy were forced te fall tack. The Austrians fired upon them from the windows of the houses, as they came up from Hithnerwasser, and made terrible havoe in their ranks, A spirited ougagement also occurred at the village of Kloster, about a wile ana a half from Minchengristz, One Austrian regiment drew the enemy between two fires, and made bloody work enough of it. The Prussians were also exposed to a hot fire from sharp-shooters in the Waldstein Castle. The bridge at Kloster was burned. Every place in the vRinity bad been dreadfully ravaged by the Prussians on their march, Tho fight continued to rage until Friday, the 206th of June. The Austrians who bn of Milnchengii'z to leave the city. No one remained but the physician and the dean. The Austrians held un- disturbed possession both of the town and the castle fora day, but were driven out before Saturday night, the 3oth, Tlhicir loss is represented by Prussian accounts to amount to 2,000 wen, but this is probably an exaggeration, Mean. while, about 6,000 Prussians are said to have entered Jungbunzlaw (a small town south of Miinchengriitz (with- out striking a blow, though this account has since been contrndicted. Great anxiety prevailed at Prague in con- sequence of the approach of the Prussians, and vigorous measures were adopted to give them a wari reception. Turning to another quarter of Bohemia, and going back in our dates (which 1 shall endeavor to make distinct, though with not a little difficulty) to the evening of Tues- day (June 26), we find a detachment of the same Prussian army corps hammering away at the Anstrians and Saxons near the little Bohemian wh: Ad of Podol and Turnan, "The former place (Bohemian for valley—podol—which name is given to wore than twenty localities in Bohemia) is sit- vated in a deep meadow on the Iser which is there a nar- row stream po. 4 about 30 feet wide, but deep enough to drown a man. A wooden bridge leads over it to the south- ern end of the village, The left bank is bordered with magnificent meadows of great extent, the right is covered with fruit trees, which usually in the valley of the Iser attain to remarkable lnxuriance and beauty, On a hight above Podol is the little cluster of stone houses called Swigaw, affording extraordinary means of defense, The fight was commenced on the Prussian side about 9 o'clock in the evening (Tuesday, June 26) and continued more or less violently throughout the night, At first the Austrians op- posed but a single brigade to the superior force of the enemy, who gradually brought into action on both sides of the Iser not less than 30,000 men, In the course of the night they were reiéoforced by two Saxon brigades, who at- tenipted to drive the Prussians across the river. This veo tn part suceesstul, and many of the enemy wers recipi- tated into the water and drowned, They dred still worse in the attempt to storm Podol, The Austrians did not suc- ceed, however, in keeping the Prussians on the other side of the Iser. They restored the bridge (which had been burned) and pressed forward in the digection of Gitsehin, before which they arrived on the 28th (Thursday), They were at firs repulsed by a strong force of eavalry, but tho next day (Friday, 20th) they received a réenforecment and took posession of the town; but before 9 o'clock in the evening were again driven out by the Austrians, and forced back toward Tornau. Tho latest accounts report that the Austrians were not able to hold their advantage. Another engagement of considerable importance took place on the 27 th of June{Wednesday)at Trautenau on the road from Laudeshut to Bobemia, It commenced at 6 o'clock in the morning, aud after three hours sharp fight. ing, the Austrians gained possession of Trautenau. Nearly ail the troops of the tenth mymy corps took part in the bat- tle. About four o'clock in the afternoon, the Prussians sent out a strong brigade to threaten the Austrian flank and rear; whieh compelled the latter to leave Trautenau in Jossusion of only a single brigade, and take a position on he 1ghts south-west of the town where they deemed themselves secure from further attack, The Prussians represont the affair as a decided victory on their side. According to their assertions, they took several thousand prisoners, a large quantity of cannon smallarms, provisions, and other munitions of war fell into their hands and nothis but the exhaustion of the troops, who fought with uri assed bravery, prevented them from completely 4101" atin; the enemy. 1 have obtuived pretty co lola details of 5 of which Shall (Walaa 9 reénforcements, summoned the inhabitants anasti ANOTHER CHAPTER BEGUN AND FINIS from Ou. ~acia!

It Seu... however. to pub in relief the strategy of Garibaldi and to show he pal thus far managed to keep a large force of the enemy on tue watch for his movements, On the 2d ho was apparently retreating from his positions on Lake Gorda and concen. trating on the extreme left of the Italian army. On the morning of the 3d he was apparently back again in force along Lake Gorda. On the same day, at 1 o’clock p. m., he had 10,000 men at the foot of Mt, Suello, where an Aus- trian force held a fortitied position, The explanation of the movement seems to be that the retreat of the 2d was a feint, and that the three regiments who marched to Mt. Suello passed across from Salo, marching from the even- ing of the 2d until the afternoon of the 3d with scarcely a halt to take breath, When the attack came to be made it was found that only a part of the volunteers could get inta action from the nature of the position, aud a storm in those mountaing came on with a drenching rain, which Tenionvd i tatured guns of tho Italian service entirel lantly, and the effoct of ener tie hd have behav ul Hcl Jy ha fight was to compel the Aus trians to abandon the position undar cover of the night. The War-Office has undertaken to 1 the Ay the whole truth, and nothing but the truth to tue country; but it is an vp question whether the ordinary method of official lying is not better than the method of truth-teliing thus far pursued. For example, in this affair of Mr. Suelo, the report first published made it appear a battle of some importance, in which Garibaldi was wounded and Lis men defeated, It threw a chill over the country, und created new distrusts of ability of the general managers of the war, One of the most intelligent men in the country said to me after reading the bulletin; “It is not a defeat which saddens me; it is the want of concert of action, Any child knows we ought to strike four blows at once, Dut, instead of that, La Marmora fights on the 24th of June at Custozza, Garibaldi on the 3d of July at Mt, Suelo, and probably, Cialdini somewhere to-morrow; ond when all the rest have finished, Persano will do something with tho fleet,” When the reports came in later that the action of Garibaldi bed been a trifle and had achieved its object, the popular impatience toned down a good deal, but there remains grave doubt whether our Generals will learn to pull together. Some say the War-Office scized the op- portunity of representing that Garibaldi Lad been defeated in order to show that the popular idel was no more able than the leader of the Regular Army. The intentions of our Generals as to new operations are not very clear. know from personal observation that boats are being taken down to Peschiera upon the railroad, and I infer that crossing the Poin imposing force is the object of this transportation. 1 have seen a train of these boats thas came from ‘Furin, showing that the whole length of the river has been scoured for transports, This intention i8 further made cvident by a componade of the Austrian works which cover the Bridge of Borgoforte, Ou the other hand, however, th Austrians, who had established some cavalry outjostson this side of the \iinejo, have ;ono back, and there are some signs of a resumption of tali an operations on that line. a The Austrian guaboats on Lake Gorda are superior to the Italian, and they have bombarded several villages on one side, In several places, Bowdves the land batteries have replied with effect, and beaten off the enemy, They evidently hold the port of Stilvio, and have outposts for a fow miles this side.

As 1 have said before, the Italiay army covets a battle in the open ground this side the Miucio, and Austria has no intention of gratifying ony nerals at that point, The military situation ie, therefore, unchanged, and it Persano seems with the fleet, and even our own accounts of We are strong. he sannot be said to be entirely satisfactory. to do nothing Y Re encounter at Ancona burt our pride. pet at sca, aud should have pursned the enciy, aid ong bo have been able to cateh ham, 4 The Austrian report of the affair sete forth in sabstanee sattle at Custozza, but we hat they came to Ancona, shook their fists at our fleet, acquire Venetian bu and hud to go off without exchangiug civilities, 1t is not uite tre; bat it ig near enough to the truth tq disgust je public bere, But, although we are not fighting as brilliantly se the Prussians, we are doing our full part by keeping a fall third of the Austrian army in the Quadrilaters] aud otber parts of Venetia. The Hapsburg pride is pretty certain of fall, for it is evident that Benedek has been terribly out peneraled and awfully whipped, just becau-e Austrian fie would not consent to a cession of a foreign province its rightful owner. The 200,000 soldiers required to Boll the positions in Italy, would have turned the scale in Austria's favor in Germany. I must not disguise, however, that public opinion asks mere energetic military action here. tis not cuough to show that our soldiers will fight to the death, that their officers rival them in splendid proofs of personal valor; we want more, woe need more—the prestige of victory. The rapid march of Prussian success, the jealousy of that success which appears in Paris journals, and the impa- ticnce of other powers, all show that the war cannot last bong, unless it becomes general, and though we are rea- €onably sure of Venice, we cannot digest the idea of get- ting it by military combinations or diplomatic cireumlo- eutions, Now that our army 1s ia the field, we ought to win this Italian province by force of arms. WilE WAR TO GO ON—ITALY ANXIOUS TO FIGHT— POPULAR INDIGNATION AT THR COESSION OF VENBE- TIA TO FRANCE=DIPLOMACY SCOUTED. From Ou: Special Correspondent. X Miran, July 7, 1866, We were all convulsed on the evening of the 5th by a delegrani setting forth that the Emperor of Austria, though #efeated in Bohemia and on the brink of defeat in Italy, has proposed to cede Venice to France, and asks the Eumperor Napoleon to mediate for him with Jtaly and Prussia y I think the first impression was a universal indignation ot the studied contempt of Austria for Italy, and not one wn in a thousand would hear of accepting the propo- wit no wattor how it might be modified, We want Mood.

What Jo they ywld tof’ i Tue proposition to cede Venetia to Napoleon is at once adiculous aud l-maunered. Kudieulous, because there is not a French soldier within a hundred leagues of it, and France has not the shghtest clam to Malian territory on the Adriatic Il-manncred, because 1t is a forcible wa of showing cont mpt of the 408,000 Italian troops who beleaguer Venetia. But there 1s more iu it. This course mW Aust d policy. Treating airectly with ltaly, she would make a friend; tossing gratuitous insults at us, she em bitters old enmidies, tis probable, however, that this diplomatic interven- tion has wider ramifications, and it is very certain that we have uot heard the whole of the story, Napoleon, as Presi- dent of Europe, nainrally expected Austria to make ber an offer in this form. I'he glory of his reign would be incom. plete without it. Whetuer he bas also claims to put in Sidi ust us 10k lus moral support, does not appear. Nobody Bure believes to a cession to Duidinia as having been con tewplated, and the only reply to the suggestion that Napo eon way expect it, is “that would be impossible for a dundred good reasons, one of which is sufficient, viz.: that other Lu pean powers would not hear of the aggrandize ment of Fi It i8 impossible to judge at this moment what answer Italy an Pruss a will w.ke We cannot act independently of Prussia.

So, a8 it is Prussian vietones which alarm both Empe- tors aud the new map of Geimany which interests all Gov- eruwents in Europe, the brunt of tus diplomatic battle will fall upon Prussia. Italy will doubtless refuse in the face of any peril or threat to break her league with Prussia, Whether there are small holes in it, through which an agile diplomat can wiggle, has not transpired; but if there were think we should have had hints of thew in the otfi- sial organs of she Ministry. Your Parisian and Prussian correspondents will give you sarlier aud abler speculations thus mine upon the probable sction of Prussia. can only report the popular tewper were and the apparent attitude of the Government. The most obvious thing in the latter is that the Ministry mauifest more surprise than is good for them, 1 informed you week ago that the gross of Mount Cenis was kept smoking with diplomatic couners, and since then Ricasoli 3as been at camp, or traveling between it and Florence, almost incessantly. It is given ont as pure accident that ae was at the royal headquarters when Napoleon's dispatch was received. “Tell that to the wanes.’ The second thing to be noted is a perfectly non-com- mitial policy in the publication of the news. We were frst favored with an extract from the Monuteur, and since then have been fod on Parisian bulletins. Public opinion most be a real power here, when a Ministry makes Napo- leon wait to hear from the Italian people. And the jour pals have pointed out the path of duty with remarkable unanimity and singular clearuess. The Ministry know what the country thinks. The gist of it is: “Do not abandon your allies, and do pot subieit to gratuitous insults. If there is an armistice, Jet it be clearly set down, before yon desist from battle, what terms are to be given you, on what eonditions yod get Venetia, and how much of it you get.” The attitude of the Government is still further rendered doubtful by the fact that yesterday's cannonade of Borgoferte was very spirited, seeming to indicate a determination to fight it out without the help of Napoleon's good offices. Of sourse, these offers of the Emperor of France imply a resolu jon on his part to intervene by force if be is not beard when he speaks as an arbitrator. But 1 find it hard 0 believe that the contingency of Prussian success was got foreseen and provided for. A mock war against Prussia by France might be the easiest method of settling te Kline matter, and of may be 1n the programme. Austria Las been so much humiliated, and is so power- less before her two powerful enemies, and Prussia has been so successful in all ber schemes, that all things point to an early peace. Buta very argument could be made for 4 general war throngh the intervention of France by en advance upon the Rain. At all events, s few dars will settle the question, and 1 san only add that however peace way be made—wbether firectly with Austria or not—this nation will be pro- found} dissatistied if it disbands its troops withont some more successful fighting. We feel all the immense difficulties of our attacking the Quadrilateral, but we do believe victories possible with so many apd such gallant soi Liers as we have put into the field. The Italians have been very patient thus far; but since this di lomatic theekmate, there is a burning thirst for news of a battle and a victory. FLORENCE. i—— THE GREATEST DISASTER SINCE WATERLOO—CONDI- TIONS OF PEACE ~—AUSTRIAN BRAGGADOCIO= BLUNDERS OF GOVERNMENT—DEAK AND THE HUN- GARIAN DIET. From Our €peclsl Correspondent. F1oresce, July 6, 1966, the conservative papers in Europe praised as the grea General, has, at last, ruined the finest army Austria ever bed under arms. Outgeneraled by the quick mo®ements of the two Prussiau armies, he did not oppose their march through the gorges of the Riesengebirge wanting to meet both at once, instead of crushing one of the invading members. Congress Las nothing to do with that subject, and srmies, by concentrating his forees, he sacrificed one army can, after the other ou the 27th, 28th, 29th, aud 30th June, without being able to prevent the junction of the two Prus, sion armies commanded by the Prince Royal aud the Prince Fredenc Charles. Atlast, on the 3d of July, attacked along the railroad between the fortresses Joscphstadt and Kouiggratz, he was complet@y defeated. and sixteen guns, 20,000 prisoners, and innumerable flags were the trophies of the victory. Three Archdukes were wounded, two Princes, Lichtenstein and Windishgratz, taken prisoners. Bohemia is lost; the army demoralized. ft is said that sinee Waterloo no such disaster has happered to any European army, aud though we did not receive as t any fAotailed account of the efeat and flight, we may fide of its importance by the immediate result. Gen. wablenz, on the evening of the 3d, appeared at the Prussian headquarters, where be is very popular, having been the Commander of the Austrian forces in Schleswig, and Gov- enor of Holstein—and asked for a truco as a preliminary to peace openly avowing that the Austrian was not in condition to resist. He was at once told that since Prossis has bound herself toward Italy not ww make one-sided peeco without her ally, n similar message must be scut by the Buigenor Francis Joseph to Juug Victor Emanuel. The pride of Francis Joseph, however, did not allow him to take such py woh step. He, therefore, by ove of those sudden and fatal fits of igheadedness, telegraphed to Napoleon that he makes to hiu a present of Venetia, vi him to become the me ator of peace between Austria, is and Italy, It 1ou-t have been with a proud sensation that Napoleon received the surprising notice that he wos appealed to to act 2s the great umpire between three great Rurope, while he bad kept a strict neutrality.

Rici-oll returned yesterday evening; but at gent to Napoleon. Everybody hopes it will be a refusal; and rumors are rife that at Bologna the reports of guns are clearly heard. Italy wants to be independent, not a vassal to France. Unless she can carry her head high in the councils of the European pow rs she prefers to remain in her present position of uncertainty and hope. All the leading papers, without party distinction, pronounced themselves vehemently against an armistice and the trans- fer of Venetia to Italy in the forw of alms, While we live bere at Florence in such an agitation, which might become dangerous to Vietor Emannel's throne if he preferred a Proviuce to the honors ¢f the victor, Vienna is still in a worse plight. The Austrian Government, faithful to its traditions Kept up the system of enormous lying. The Vienna papers of the last week are fore me. Day by day they speak of Austrian vietories; day after day the Prussians were defeated, flying toward the frontier; the Hanoverian army bad joined the Confederates, who are advancing, and Benedek is the great General of the age! It was on the 2d that the inhabitants of the Aus- trian kmpire got some inkling that some screw must be loose, since they were ofliciallv informed that after those repeated victories Benedck bad retired, for strategic reasons, to Josephstadt and Konig gritz. Sull the Prussians were oxactly where he wanted them to be. Buddeny, on the 4th, the whole truth dawned upon the Vienese; the army was anpibilated, the Prussians victorious! Deep indignation seized everybody; the mob shouted for vengeance; they accused the Generals and the Emperor of having lost the Ewpire; and Francis Joseph gave orders to put three Generals, the Count Clam-Gallas, the Chevalier Hen ikstein, Chief ot Benedek's Stal, and Knsmanich, a Croatian, before the court-martial, They bave to expi- ate the blunders of the Government, of the Emperor, and of Benedek., But the blunders of the Austnan Govern- ment are not confined to their war policy; they could not do anything more mischievous to the wierest of the dy- nasty than the adjourning of the Hupgerian Diet. Just at the time when Deak bad matured his plan of recou- struction in the Committee for Common Afiire, Chan- cellor Majlath came down from Vicnoa to Pesth, contiden- tially to ask Deak whether the Diet might vote a levy of 150,000 conseripts by a handsome majority, and withont any exciting debate. Deak replied at ouee that the Diet would certainly sefuse avy such bill by an jw. menso wajority, after having been treated so shabbily by the Government during these Jost six months, Upon this, Majlath had the Diet adjourned, to the great despair of all tue couscrvative party, who know that the Diet is the Jest dyke against the rising revoluuonary flood. As long as the members were meeting at Pesth, there was a hope of conciliation; once sent home, everybody knows trian has no mind to come to terms with biungary ik not accepted and war oui that Au RF EE, XXXIXtH CONGRESS, FIRST SESsION.

Mr. COWAN offered as a substitore for the peuding joiot res. olution a resolution of the Senate, declaring the Senators elect from Tennessee entitled to their seats. Mr. I WUMBULL made point of order that a simple resolu. tion of the Benate was not in order as a substitute {or o joint said State; entitled to all rights and guaranties under the C Mr. SHERMAX trusted that the would not adopt the substitate of the Committee, but that it would pass toe resolu- tion as it came from the House. Tuere was nothing in the substitute of the Committee but what he indorsed and had voted for. The same effect, however, would be produced by tbe House resolution as by the Senate substitute. The osser. sion of the political dogmas of Mr. Trumbull's substitute could do no good whatever. It was vut a reassertion of what Con. had already asserted, and as it might be vetoed by the President it could ooly cause Gelay. The Committee had so formed the resolution that the Pres t could not approve it, The result would be auotbher veto aud further delay. The House resolution accomplished the same result in a speedy way. Mr TrusMevLL-I regret that the Senator from Olio cannot agree to the substitute proposed by the Committee, and that he bases his objections to it on the ground that the Executive will veto it. He says that Congress bas twice asserted wl that is in the resolution, and having it he is for givieg up his own opinion and the epinioz of Congress and yielding tw the Executive, Mr. SHERMAN—I did not state that, Mr. TRUMBULL— Well, M1. Fresident, he did state that we had asserted it twice and that the President woull veto it. Mr. SHERMAN 1 aid say that, Mr. TRUMBULL~] 80 understood it. 1did not see how any other inference could be drawe from it except that he was op- to the proposition becanse the Exeoutive would veto it. 1 is known that the President bas asserted bis authority on the question of reccnstiuction and concedes to Congress nothing but the right of passing upon the admission of mem- bers, aud he does not concede that to Cougress, but to each House separstely. Now, Sir, this is A joint resolution as it comes from the House, which, of course. bas to go to the President for his approval. hat is it¢ It is a joint resolu: tion declaring Tennessee again entitled to Senators and Rep- Botutat vos Fr hat 1 d to a resoluti y 0 a resolution That big Austro-Hungarian bully, Benedek, whom all Senator from Ohio that 1 em oppose sentatives. We bave jurisdiction over this whole subject, to the simply confining Congress to the admission of Senators and Repre- Congress, Now, I say very frankly and I sm opposed to adopting such a proposition, declaring simply that Senetors and Keprescutatives may come here—:a matter that Congress has notling to do with, So far es the qualifications, elections and returns of wembers is eoncerned, 1 agree with what is contended for on the floor of this Honse by the triend of the President, that each House must pass sep aratddy upon the election, qualification and return of its own what is it that we are legislating about? It is whether the condition of things in Tennessee, brought about by the re bellion. 80 dissevered the political relations between the State Government of Tennessee and the Government of the United States that it lost its representation here, aud whether it can bave the right of representation as any other right; and that is our resolution os we reported it. We do not report simply that Tennessee 1s entitled to Ddenators We report that the Govern and Representatives, ment organized in Tennessee under a Constitution which was submitted to a popolar vote and ratified as proclaimed by An- drew Johnson himself as the legitimate Government of the State of Deunessec, ectiticd not to representation. We eay nothing about representation, bat entitled to all the rights be. longing to one of the States of this Union. It is much broader than the House J Sopasition, entitled to representation of to the guarapty of a republican form of Goverament, entitled to every right which the States of Ohio roceedings 1 do not pro to be drawa into any extended remarks, but the pre- amble of the House resclution simply places the admission of the State of Tennessee upon the fact of its having ad the Constitutional nt. That is all. Now, Sir, Teunessee, has done mueh more than that; she is in a very different form from most of the other Bouthorn States. Her Constitution, T believe, was the on'y une of all the other Southern Constitu tions which have been adovted in the rebel States since the Rebellion which was submitted to the r vole and ratified by the people. Perhaps the same thing may bave been done in Arkuusas. 1am not sure but that there may be one or two other instances. Mr, Browx—1 ask whather the preamble introduced from the Committee on the Judiciary does not in so many words as gert that the Constitotion of Tennessee as it pow stands is not only Repnblican in form, but conforms to the Constitution of f the United Siates, hotwilianting the fact thet it disfran- tion? ahises the whole of tue polered DOD The Cualr suetained the point, Mr. COoWAN apposle from the decision of the Chair, but the Senate sustained the Chair, Mr. NYE offered the following amendment as a substitute for the Joa resolution: the peopie of Teonrasee, having organized (Government for that State which is in allegiance to the Constitutio and Jews of the United States, and have given satisfuetory vridence of their pur pose aud ability to wain'sin the same, and 10 same requirin the vanotion of Congress to its velldity, it is hereuy ratified, and be gusranteed by the United States.” Mr. Nye's amendment was disagreed to. Mr. HENDERSON, at 6 p. m., moved to adjourn. Disagreed to, My. DooLITTLE moved to amend the resolution so as to make it rend that the State of Tennessee is sutitied to be represented by Senators and Representatives in Congress duly elected and qualified, upon their taking the ouths of office required by ex. isting laws. The amendment was disagreed to. The resolution, as amended, was then read o third time and passed as amonded, and it goes back to the House tor coucur- rence in the amendment. Before taking the final vote Mossrs. HEXDRICKS. COWAN and DooLITTLE explained why they should vote for the resolution, although opposed to the preamble. They would do so becausn of the object sought to be accomplished, not because they in. dorsed the preamble. Mr. Brows said he should vote against it bacause he be. lieved it to be a surrender of all the priuciples for which the Republican party had been eontending to admit Tenuesseo while she denied suffrage to colored citizens.

He said he felt Wt his duty to the House and to himself to say a word or two on a matier which bad given him so much pain and mortitication, He thonght mem- bers had misunderstood his position and the feelings and motives which had Jrompted him, He had sat here and heard himsel! denounced in a way in wnieh ne member shoul 1 speak of arother, sod whieh certainly did not tend to good feeling. He tho git that the remarks of the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. (Garfield), the other day, were nufair oud unjost toward him, ol hough that gentleman had risen prote-sing friendship to him. It seemed as if both he and the geatieman from lowa (Mr. Wilson) bad supposed they were prosecuting a eriminsl.

Tha SPEAKER roled that the remarks of the gentleman, stat ing that the members were infuenced by passion, were not in oruer, Mr. RoveseAv professed his readiness, if be had said any: thing improper, to take it back. All he had said was tbat members should bave come to the consideration of the ose B0- prejudiced and without If that wera not so, then he wis in error. He appealed to the House if these gentlemen (Garfield and Wilson not shown far more passion in words and action than be himself had. Mr. STEVENS again rose and sald he must object to eriticism on the ju gment of the House, Mr. RoUssEAU protested that he had not reflected on the [ndgmeng of tug House, He was simply speaking of the argu: Wwenis of gentlemen, The SPEAKER intimated that it was nob in order te impute pasgion to the House, Mr, ROUSSEAU said that be would take that back. He asked the Speaker whether be would be allowed to suy that an effort bad been made 10 ereate exc tement against hm by ng in the, circumstances of a fist-light in the sawe part of the Capit The SPEAKER replied that the gentleman had already said it. Mr, ROUSSEAU said that he would then stick to if, and not take it back. He went on to say that he waa SOrTy 10 860 an effort to influence members by bringing up in discussion a fist fight which bad nothing whatever to do with the cate. The House shoul! not have been oniled upon to jisten to things of that sort. His iriend from Massachusetts (Ar. Banks) scemed to have been lying in wait until tae close of the argument and, when ail reply was cut off, wade an‘appeal agaiost him, sach ao is ra-ely heard in a Court of jistice, oven in cases of the hichest crimes known to the law, He thought the House cor 1 t determine the matter just as well without that appeal se wit it. He must say shat tue proccediags m this case had net been entirely Jost to him. He woull not say ic was unfair, becainse then he woud ba called to order. Mr, STEVENS arose, snd said be must insist that it was out of crder to eriticise the mode by whieh the Houses arrived at its J idgment. se SPEAKER sustained the point of order, reading from the manual a se tence that no prior determination of the House is t 1 be reflected on by any member, Uukess he moans Ww conclude with a motion ta rescind. Mr. RouvssEAU remarked that that was the farthest from bis mtenton, Mr, STEVENS sald there was no mistaking the whole eonrse of the xen loman's asgument He ol joored to at, and instead of the House beine reprimanded, he uxced that the respondent be revrimanded necording to the order f the Honse, Mr, ROUSSEAU protested that be found no fault with the de cision ot the Honse, and said he should submit to lize a man as well as he contd.

THlen, Haskin, and others, and have them keep Fer- nando Wood and party out of the Convention. The President is afraid that, if too many rank Copperbeads get in, it will look bad, and people may suspect that all is not right. Fernando Wood confidently asserts that the patronage of the Now.

The Democratic mewbers of Congress have published 8 call for a National Convention to be held in the City of Philadel gua on the 11th of August, and to be known as the Natio Democratic party, and reuunciation of the name Democracy, and an invitation for its members to meet in convention with such dissatisfied persons of the Union party as can be induced to uuite with thew in forming a pew organization. It is a di. roet confession that the Demooratio party, indelibly stain with treason ss it is, is a name too grievous to be e, an the cunning signers of this cull, who are Agger under its weight, are striving to relieve themselves the dreadful urden. ‘I be proposition to Shenge its name is a humiliating ac- know ledgment of defeat, of dishonor, and of national nation, which could have been wr from these men only the direst suffering and necessity, And yet it will not avail. Tbe new party. whatever name or shape it may assume, will be the same old Copperhead concern. Comp of the same men clothed with the sume history, and plotting the same dis- Louors and disasters to the country, The “cal” establishes the faof, however, that the recent revelation to the Democracy of this district, “that the war wes just and necessary, was local in its character and did not extend tojWashin for it makes no mention of the war at a and for anght that appears in it, the authors of it never hes of the Rebellion, They discuss the aangerons situation of the country, utterly ignoring the fact that thers bas been a Re- bellion, and innocently seem to expect that the ple will be equaly dumb, apparently entertaining the idea of the ostrich, who believes that when his head is thrust under ‘the dirt his body 18 out of sight, But alow me to quote a passage from it: “At present 11 States are excluded from the National Coun- cil. For seven long months the present Con persist eutly denied any representation to the people of theses States, Laws affecting their nighest and dearest interest have been passed without their consent, end in disregard of the funda mental principle of free government.” Iere it claune in piteons terms, that for seven months 11 States have not been represented in Congress, but makes no reference whatever to tue manner in which the Senators and Representatives from those States went out of Congress, or the condition of those States for the five years preceding these soven months, It affects to treat the subject as if the Senators and Re sentatives from those States had been rudely expelsd from Congress, without conse or fault on their and wickedly kept ont of their seats for the long period of seven months, and very fol ay tries to ignore the fact that thess Senators nnd Representatives, five years before that time, and fn viola. tion of their oaths, had voluntarily abandoned their seats and inaugurated a cruel war, in whiob, after a costly and bloody sirugele of four years. they were overwhelmingly defeated, Again ther say “As essentiol to national union, we mnst maintain unim- vaired the rights, the digrity, and the equality of the States, including the right of repressutation tn Congress, and the ex- clusive right of each State to control ite own domest'e con. cerns, abject ouly to the Constitotion of the United States.’ Now, al this is a mere trick of words, intended to obscure the truth. There 8 no issue involved coreeruing the rights or the dignity and equality of the Statos, hat the real question is, what shail be the status and condition of the rebellions in- habitants of the Eebel States; upon what terms shell they be admitted baek to the enjoyment of political rights, and what security shall Le taken. what guarantios exacted by the loyal pecpis of the nation to prevent the horrors and atrocities of mnother rebel fon, In conclusion, the sathors of this call use the fullowlng lan Kage Wa therefore respeotfully but earnestly nrge upon our fel. [low citizens of each State, Territory and Congressional Dis- trict in the United States, in the interest of Union, and in a spirit of harmony, and with a direct reference to the principles contained in siid call, to act promptly mn the selection of moderate and conservative mon to repre.eut them in said Con. vention, to the end that oll the States shall at once be restored to their practical relations to tue Union, the Constitution be maintained. and pence Liess the whole country.” Here wo bave the whole Democratic policy developed, which 18 that ali the States shall at once be restored to their practi i ca! relations to the Union by tue immediate admission of their Senators and Representatives into Congress. Every Senator and Representative (locted in nine ont of eleven Rebel States 14, 1 aw wiormed, a Rebel, and wholy unable to take the test oath, Many of them were leading LKebels, and bore a large part in precipitating the South into rebellion, And Demo- cratic Congressmen demand thei 1m pediate and uncondi- admit them for seven months is a gross infraction of their rights ard a wanton violation of the Comstitution, sithongh those Rebel Representatives bad for tne preceding five yoars staded out on their own account, and during four years of the time waged a most bloody war for the destruction of the Gov. eriment, Aud bere I must be allowed tosnggest that these Democratic members of Congress bave in one respect overrsached them- selves, They have prescribed in advances the terms upon wich this convention must weet, and these constitute the exact basis and pla form of the present Copperhead” Democ- racy. So that every man who goes into that convention is ad- vised in advances that whatever change of name he may under. ov. be must subscribe unconditionally to the old Copper- era” oreed, This “oall” is addressed to Pebels as well as Union men; the (oyal men who sustained the country are not specified and Confederate officers nud soldiers are invited to take their seats io convention in Philadelphia for the purpose of settling the (nestions and consequences growing out of the Rebellion in which they bave just oven defeated This new party is to be dubbed the National Union Party. But according to the doctrines entertained by the men who propose to form it there is no nation; there is no united, indi- visible Amerios: people. They anf their predecessors yeas Lave advocated the dogma that our Goverument is 8 mere Compact, a mere confederacy of States, of sovereign and {nde ndest States, each of which, according to the Kentueky and ITEinla Toso 0us, which have ling tormed the corner-stoue bf the Demooratic creed, had a right to jodge of the lufraction of the Coustitution as well as the remedy, and to remain in or withdraw from the eonfederation according to tue determina. ton of its own will, I'hey held that we were not one nation, bat as many nations as States, bound together io copartuersidp by articles eallod the Constitution, and whiol migkt be dissaived at pleasure. Anto tas Union, there would be none if the Democratic {a of the North bad not been defeated st the polls, and the semoeratic party of the South had not been deleated upon the ficld of battle, Every Domo ratic orator and newspaper agouizes upon the sulject of biga taxes. ‘they dwell pathetical y upon the op- yression of the people, aud pretend to thank God that the Jowocratic party bus no responsibility is the matter. Bot, bow stauds the great fact! These high taxes, one and all, wore levied by the Democratic party. That party is the au- thor and creator, absolutely, of the great debt which now rests upes the country, not, indeed, b direct legislation, but by DFIGEINE Upon the country the terrible neoessities out of whioh it has grown. Hud it vot been for the assurances given by the Democratic party of the North, to the people of the South, that no resist. ance would be offered to secession, and that the Goverament and the people of the North would be held still while the work of establishing a Sontnern Confederacy should be perfected, the Kebellion never woud have been undertaken, When a Democratic politician comes around you elamorin abont bigs taxes, you can turn to him and say, as Natuan di to David, “Thou art the man.” The encouragement you gave to Liebels first levied these taxes. The assistance you gave to Rebedlion continued them, and the persistent and devilish malice with which vou tenduce the Government, the army, aud tie great canse for which we struggled, swell d them to what they are; aud now you go about as pubic disturbers, by falsely ascribing to others the direct consequences of your own wickeduess.

After assisting in the conduct of a free. soll paper in Wisconsin, his native State, he marched to Kansas at the head of a company of voluateers in the Summer of 1856, to take part in the struggles of the Free State men, Thenceforward Kansas bas been Lis home, and his talents and devotion to the principles of freedom have given him many prominent positions in State politics. He was a member of the Constitutional Convention of 1838 and from that time to the breaking out of the war was a member of the Legislature.

Gantt of Arkan- sas his views of the state of public affairs in general, and es- pecially in the South-West, in connection with the policy of President Johnson, that gentleman replies, under date of July 19, in a letter full of seh facts and figures as deserve the care- ful consideration of every reader and voter. Promising that the war being ended, the defeated party should *acoept the situation,” Le thus sums up that situation: The unconditional surrender of the armies. as required by Gen, Grent, onme first, avd then the taking of the onth of wiegianco by the eitizeus, The repudiation of the Confederate debt by the States and tbe adoption of the constitutional amendment abc lishing Slavery wers required by President Johnson as conditions precedent to restoration. Lhus far bad the President defined the situat.on whou Congress wet. After u careful survey of what the kxeentivo bad requires, Congress thought it advisaoie to impose other conditions, The first was the Civ Rights bili, and the second the Con- stitutional amendment, These requirements of the President und Congress, as I understand if, cops’itute the situation,” Which itself beng accordingly defined, means acce Hing the termination of hostilities by an unconditional surrender of the nrmies repudiating the Contederate debt; adopting the Con- stitutions) umendment abolishing Slavery, and incorporating its provisions in their orgavic law; granting to the negro all protection to life, limb, aud property that auy other man kas, coupled with all political privileges except that of voting agreeing to send representatives to Congress based upon the number of its citiz:os who are not disfranouised by srpegie law, as is done in toe other States of the Union and tor precedent to govern io the future, consenting to eaclusion trom office of certain person engaged in the Rebellion, He then shows thet immediately after the surrender, the leaders of the Rebellion (and the masses would do as the lenders did) were coutent if they could have pardon avd per- mission to earn bread for themselves and families. Sach is not the case mow, They are intolerant, supercilions and dictatorial, And they are as realy to deceive and bring to suffering the masses of the South as they ever were, if by so doing they can advance themselves, These Southern politicians, from vanquished being victors having overcome the loyal element in the South, and being in undisputed control of ell the State governments, except Ten. nessee and Arkansas. flushed with success, and no longer week or modest, contemplate little less than marching up to Philadelphia on the 14th of August and dictating terms to the pation; or, uniting with the Northern wing of the Rebellion, sweeping from power the very meu to whom they surrendered in 1863. Of the Philadelphia Convention—what it might do, and what it probably will do— General Gantt web Should the Philadelphia Convention fail to accept the situa. tion, then tae Convention of Southern Union men, which 1 see has teen called, will become indispensable. It would be its duty, nmong other things, to snke every appecl to the inter- ests and patriotism of the Southern masses to cut themselves loose from reckless leaders, aud bring repose to themselves and the pation by sccepting the mildest terms ever offered to any conquered people throughout the history of wll oivil wars, For the sake of my own people and the welfare of the nation, 1 desire infinitely above all persoval considerations that the country so long distracted shoull have repose. The way is clear it the Seathern oy le will oniy seize it; and Idon't care what party it breaks ey or builds up, so it brings per wanent to the people. Bat I repeat, they conid have but one legitimate object at Philidelphia, and that would be to sceept the situation and urge the Southern people to ratify their action. It is in their power to do so, and soouid they fail, whatover delay in restora tion or paralysis in busioess way result from it will Le clearly traced to them as having the power and yot not the will to ead the strife, $e SS 0 Over all the tempest of war, one distinot characteristic has shown itsolf to the observ. ant. That after each lull in the storm, and attempt and failure at adjustment, the mind of the nation, as if swept by a wighty son, has moved toward the remotest point of this great strug- gle—equality before the lew. Tre nalion may well pause aud see whether the situation as vow tendered will be accepted ot Philadelphia, If rejected there, it may transplce in some shupe or other, that the last step will be taken, and the real situation, as legitimately resaiting from the siraggle, and, us I sbouid then verily beliove, intended of Providence, teadered for acoept- ance, The Weather.
