Franco-Prussian War. LONDON, September 13.â€"On Sunday a Prussian reconnoitering party encountered a 'body of French at Chateau Thierry. A sharp engagement occurred and the Prus- sians were repulsed with considerable loss. The city of Seissons has refused to sur- render in response to the summons of the Prussian commander. ' The idea has been started in Berlin of converting Als‘ace and Lerraine into an in- dependent republic, and it is regarded with favor in London. Itgis looked, on as a con- ditionto whichb’oth’belligehents can'agiec; BRUMATH, Sept, 8.â€"â€"Upcrations against Sfrasburg are carried on slowly but surely. General Leonwenski, General Van Woeder’s Chief of Staff, says‘he expresses his Opinion, that with mathematical certainty the place will fall about the 24th inst., except there are unforeseen accidents to works of ap- preach. MUNICH, Sept. lZ.â€"Prussia has formally notiï¬ed Bavaria of her intention to annex to Germany a portion of France as the mi- litary frontier. BERLIN, Sept. 12.â€"The following des- patch from the Kng to the Queen has been deceived, dated at 10 O‘clock on Sunday night: “The citadel of Laon exploded after its surrender, jrzt as the Prussians were pre- paring to enter. Three hundred and fifty men were killed, including two hundred of the Mobile Guards. Many were shockingly mutilated. William of Mecklinburg was wounded, There must have been treason.†NEW YORK, Sept. 14.â€"A despatch from London dated yesterday says : “ The Journal de St. Petersburg at hand icontains nothing of the character of certain extracts prefessedly made from it in tele- grams sent to this country from Belgium. On the contrary it explicitly says that an under- Standing has been reached by two Powers, hitherto neutral, with the object of uniting to put an end to the warand causing it to he succeeded by a peace which shall not leave the defeated party the pain of losing any ortion of its territory. The two powers ere spoken of are understood to bc Russia and Austria. Prince Gortschakoff is repor- ted to have said at a dinner openly: ‘We are disposed to forgive 1854 in the present most satisfactory behaviour to of vienna.’ †LONDON, Sept. 13.â€" The latest story of the Prussians is that they claim the surrcn der of one half of the French fleet. Against this it is certain that even England would protest. It is believed tonight that, all hopes of a peace must be abandoned and that no tre ty will be signed unless in Paris or on the banks of the Rhine. LONDON, Sept. 14.â€"Advices from Stras- bourg are to the effect that the heroic defence is drawing to a close and a surrender immi- nent from the failure of ammunition and provisions. PAuIs, Sept. ,14.â€"The Pl‘uSSlahS are pumping water from the meats around Stras- ourg, and it is reported that they are pre- paring to send out balloons from which ni- tro glycerine will be dropped into the French magazines. LONDON, Sept. l4.â€"The following has been received in Paris: “STRASBOURG, Sept. 9.-â€"Affairs are in. a deplorable condition and growing worse. The bombardment from the Prussian ad vanced works is incessant and frightful. I’ll hold out till the end. (Signed) “ULRICH, “ Commandant of Strasbourg.†TOURS, Sept. 14.-â€"The Prussians have consented, at the request of Switzerland, to permit non-combatants to_ leave Strasbourg. The Loss of the “Captain†Although the account of the strange and terrible catastrophe to the new iron-clad Captain came to us in a form that hardly admitted of a doubt as to its correctness, it was impossible to resist the hope that after all it might prove to be the creation of ru- mour only, or turn out to be greatly exag gerated. Not onlv, however, has no contra- diction of the substantial accuracy Of' the ï¬rst statement arrived, but we publish this morning a dcspatch from Admiral Milne, who commanded the squadron of which the Captain was one, giving such particulars as he supply of her untimely and mysterious destruction. We give the gallant Admiral’s narrative in his own words :â€" “I was on board the Captain on the morning of the 6th; everything was in order. A sailing trial began in the afternoon. The breeze was moderate and the ships carried royals. At 4 in the afternoon the breeze freshened, the “Captain†making from 11 to 13 knots. It was observed that the sea- washed over her lee deck, her gunwale some- times beiug level with the water. I left the "Captain" at 5:30 p. m., when she was 20 miles off Cape Finislerre. Evolutions were resumed, and continued from 8 to 10 pm, the ships being at their designated positions, and a westward course taken. At 11 p.m., the wind freshcned. the barometer fell and a gale sprung up. Our sails were reefed. The “ Captain†was close astern of the flagship, steaming steadily and gaining on us. I no- ticed at 1:15 am. she was six points abaft our beam, keeling over very much. Her light a few minutes later was still visible, after which a thick rain shut her out. At dawn, ten ships of the fleet were to be seen, but the “ Captain" was missing. The squad ron scattered to search for her, when frag- menls of wreck were found, but no survivors could be discovered.†It will-thus be seen that sometime between 1:15 and daylightâ€"~say ï¬ve o’clockâ€"on the morning of the 7th the "Captain" went to p , lishes a despatch from its correspondent at .'

The weary waiting in departmental ante- rooms, the heart-breaking struggles with red- tape and routine, and the chilly indifference of officials. belonged to the past; but the inventor has lived to triumph over them only to perish in the work of his own genius. Lord Northbi‘ookc was better known by his family name of Baring, his father Sir Fran- cis, having been the second of that great house to receive the honor of a peerage. Lord Northbrooke was a useful business member of the House of Commons, in which he sat prior to his elevation at his father’s death to the Upper Chamber, and was known somewhat regretfully to have quitted the more active duties of 3. Com- moner for the comparative idleness ofa peer. The advent of Mr. Gladstone to power, however, gave him congenial occupation as Uiidei‘~Sec1-etary of War. The great sorrow which the loss of his son will occasion the First Lord of the Admiralty will also excite the liveliest feelings of regret. We hope that in a few hours public anxiety for further particulars of this deplorable event will be satisï¬ed by the publication of the story of the now survivors.â€"â€"â€"Globc. * Latest from Europe. THE TEMPORAL POWEii.â€"TIIE END RAPIDLY APPROACHING.â€"ALL ITALY POURING To ROMEâ€"THE POPE TO TAKE REFUGE IN ENGLAND. LONDON, Sept. 12.â€"-â€"Advices from Flor- ence are to the effect that the Italian troops will enter Roman territory today. Italy’s ultimatum substantially strips the Pope of his temporal power. The local authorities of the Roman territory, however, are to re- main undisturbed by the Italians, and the government announces its wish to concur with any power in guaranteeing the indepen- dence of the Pontiff. NEW YORK, Sept. 13.â€"A despatch from London, dated yesterday, says:â€" “Advices received in this city this morn- ing, dated Orvieto, September 11, state that the population of the Province of Viterbo have Originated an iiisnrrectionarymevement of aformidable character. Shouts of ‘Loncr live the King of Italy,’ are heard on all sides. The male population are armed, and are formed into guerilla bands for the pur- pose of harassing the Papal zouaves. These latter are stationed at Viterbo,Monteï¬ascone and Valentano. The gendarmes have dis- armed the insurrectionists, and the King of Italy has guaranteed the maintenance of order. “Advices received from Florence, dated the 11th of September, state that the entire country is deeply agitated. Italian flags are everywhere displayed, and placards upon which is inscribed the motto, ‘Long live Victor Emmanuel,’ are visible in the cafes, and on the corners of every street. A large meeting was held at Modena in favour of the occupation of Rome. “A despatcli dated Florence, at midnight, last night, states that orders were given for the Royal troops to enter Rome without un- necessary delay.†LONDON, Sept. 12.â€"The Daily Telegraph has a special despatch stating that an ar- rangement for the occupation of the Papal territory has been agreed to and a plebisci- mm is to be taken, by which the inhabitants are to decide for the Pope or King as civil ruler. The decision will be binding on both. In the meantime Italian troops will hold Roman territory until the voting is over, and if the result is adverse to the King he will withdraw. The Papal towns are sending petitions to the Italian government for pro- tection. Naples urges the King not to hesi- tate to make Rome the capital of the nation. The Ofï¬cial journal at Florence justiï¬es the occupationef the patrimony of St. Peter, maintaining that it is as necessary for the the Pope as for Italy. The journal hepes the Pontiff will accept the guardianship of the Italian government.

In some of our late despatches Trim the Old World, we are favored with a special to the New York World, of two demonstrations being made in London, Eng, to recognise the French Republic. As both of these meetings were addressed by Prof. Beesely â€"â€" a gentleman famed for his accuracy in getting himself into a scrapeâ€"who, in the course of his re- marks, vigorously denounced the imbe- cility of the British ~Government and charged it upon the Queen, by name, “that she was encouraging the King of Prussia to march on Paris for the pur- pose of destroying the new-born Repub- lic.†Becsely goes on to say that the “ Government of England has not recog- nised the Republic of France, but the day was at hand when the French Re- public would be called upon to recognise the Republic of England ;†and much more to the same purpose, but with as little meaning, was said by this wise-acre. Now we would not have our readers run away with the idea that the English people favor republicanismealthough a few may look upon it theoretically, and amongst these the working classesâ€"yet the great body would sternly repudiate such an idea. Neither will Pref. Beescly nor any of his lucky family, live to see the day when the “ French Republic will recognise the Republic of England,†However successful the French Republic may be under arms, no sooner will the enemy be driven from her doors, than she will succumb to confusion, anarchy and riot. No one who has considered the prosperity of France, during these eighteen years that Napoleon has ruled over her, can accuse him Of neglecting the good of his country, however selï¬sh the means were. Among the many changes which have taken place during his reign, there is none more striking than the one which may be regarded as the ultimate result of all the many influences which the Imperial Government, has brought to bear upon the people ; for it has labored with great shrewdncss and success to stimulate the spirit of enterprise and speculation, which are the life of national industry. Formerly the retired shop- keeper invested his little capital in government securities, and thought no more of anything but to enjoy himself as best he could. The successful artisan or little farmer simply boarded his tiny gains; and, although these gains were in each case inï¬nitesimal, they l swelled to an enormous sum in the ag- gregate, all of which were withdrawn from repioductive industry. The Im- perial Government attacked this hoarding spirit on all sides and the result was that Frenchmen grew more daring and more ready to encounter risks for the chance of larger proï¬ts in return. “The troops are violently exc1ted and ini- patient. The Cabinet is reconsidering its resolution, but the people are bent on going to Rome, with or without the government. Palermo, the most reactionary of the Italian cities, was illuminated last night on false re- ports that the frontier. Ricasoli is still here. Pozza de San Martino will probably be sent as Envoy to the Pope.. All Italy, in the meantime, is arming. All ï¬rst-class troops have been ordered out, the second class to follow. Thirty thousand men will join the standards on the 20th. Four regiments of grenadiers passed through this morning to the frontier. “France has recalled all the French sol- diers under the Papal'flag, 2,000111 number.

The document is signed by the Republican revolutionary committee. pieces. When last seen the splendid ship exhibited no signs of danger, although she “ keeled over†very much, and in an early part of the evolutions'in which the fleet was engaged “ her gunwale was often level with “the water. and the sea washed over her “deck.†Her steam was up, and she could therefore have been under full control, which makes it less probable that she would be driven ashore ; whilst her immense strength would, one might suppose, even in such a case. have enabled her to 'hold together longer than an ordinary vessel. It is extremely satisfactory to ï¬nd that some ofthe crewwere saved,and their account will be awaited with deep anxiety. The discipline, the number of hands,thc ï¬rst-rate seamanship of the ofï¬cers. and the general appointments of the British men of-war, make such occurcnces as the one we have new to deplore exceedingly rare. The fate of Slr Cloudesley Shovel, and the founder- ing of the Royal George, with Admiral Kem- penfelt on board, at Spithead, are noted as rare and exceptional events in England’s naval annals. Ships have from time to time been lost in storm and battle, but they have succumbed to overwhelming odds: and so far as we can at present discover, the “ Cap- tain encountered nothing which might iiOt have been overcome or avoided. The pride and warm attachment of Eng lishmen to the naval service ensures for the sufferers by sncha calamity the deepest feel- ing of sympathy. And on this occasion there were-others on board for whom there will be mourners beyond their own circle of friends. Railroad Disaster LONDON, Sept. 14.â€"A dreadful railroad accident occurred at Tamworth,in the county of Stafford, this morning. The train known as the Irish mail, which left Holyhead, Wales, late last. night, when entering Tam- worth was thrown from the track by a mis- placed switch. The entire train, mostly composed of passenger coaches, was plunged into the Trent river. Thus far the bodies of the eugineer and four passengers have been recovered. There is much confusion at the scene of the disaster, and it is almost impossible to get a correct account. The loss of life has been fearful. FOR all the purposes for which a liniment is used, Dr. J. Briggs’ Allevantor, is supc rior to any preparation that the skill of man has yet discovered. As an internal remedy owing to its healing balsamic properties in irritations of the mucous membrane of the alimentary canal, air passages and urinary organs, and at the same time exercising a powerful seductive influence upon the ner- vous centre, thereby snbduing pain, allaying morbid excitement and irritability, and im- parting a feeling of comfort, case and tran- quility to the whole system.

Nor is this all that he has done for the country: he saved the people from themselves when they were about to be torn asunder by the factions that were raging amongst them. But where is the Republic that has stood anything like the test, and that has progressed with the times? Switzerland is the only country that has, so far, during any leng- thened period, and what has it to boast of? True, we have the Republic of the cious. Sold everywhere, 52230 United States, but who can view the loose state‘of affairs that are apparent there, and yet say that a country is more prosperous under Democracy than under Monarchy. It must be borne in mind that. the French require a ruling despot for their own good, as well as for the tranquility of the world at large. Be- sides liberty can be found elsewhere than in a Republic, and the rights of a people can be secured without resorting to De- mocratic intrigues. N owhere is true happiness and contentment to be found but under the protection of a lasting go- vernment. As yet the French Republic has only been recognised by a Paris mob and a few Beeselites in Hyde Parkand at St. James’ Hall, London, England. We learn that a letter has been recei- ved from Mr. Robert Farris, announcing his arrival at Montreal with two superior heavy horses. His friends will remem- ber that he left Richmond Hill early in the spring en route for England for RED RIVER. News from Fort. Garry have been re- ceived up to the 3rd Sept. Lieutenant- Governer Archibald arrived at. the Fort on the evening of the 2nd inst. He was received by Col. Wolseley, and his com mission was to be read on the Tuesday fol- lowing.

Riel,O’Donoâ€" hue', Lepiue and a few of tlfeir friends made their escape just previous to the entry of the regulars into the fort; Reil went to St. J esepb, O’Doneghue to Pem- bina (both places in American territory), and Lepine sought refuge to the west of Fort Garry. Since the arrival of the troops business has improved wonderfully and mechanics are in demand. Quite a number of emigrants have arrived from Canada, who ï¬nd a difï¬culty in obtaining houses. A rumor is afloat that O’Don0~ ghuc is on his way from Pembina for Red River, with some of his friendsâ€"â€" all well armed.
