TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE. (axvymes Tniown.) THE WAR IN GERMANY. BATTLE BETWEEN THE PRUSSIANS AND FEDERALS. COLOGNE, Jui.T 15. A sanguinary conflict took place yesterday be. tween the Prussians and Federal' near Aachaffen burg, in which the former were completely vic torious. Aachaffenburg is in flames, and the Austrian, Bavarian, and Darmstadt forces are re treating. The Prussians are marching upon Frank fort, and the first convoy of wounded arrived there at 6 p.m. yesterday. FRANKFORT, JuLy 14. It is expected that in the event of the seat of the Federal Diet being removed to Augsburg, the foreign representatives to the Germanic Confedera tion will also proceed to that city. FRANKFORT-ON-THE-MAINE, JULY 14, EYLVING. The Federal troops have evacuated this city, and the seat of the Diet has been removed to Augs burg. That body, in notifying to the Frankfort Senate its intention of removing to Augsburg, stated that this step was necessitated by the ill-suc cess of the Federal forces. It also expressed its acknowledgments of the fidelity of Frankfort to the Confederation, and hoped that the proposed German parliament would assemble in this city. PRUSSIAN HEADQUARTERS, CZERNAHORA, JOLT 13. The headquarters of the Prussian army were transferred here yesterday. The lit army corps occupied Brunn this morning, where the royal headquarters will be advanced to-morrow. The French ambassador at Berlin, M. Benedetti, has accompanied the King to Czernahora. The 2nd army corps is advancing between Olmutz and Brunn. The Elbe army corps continues to move on Iglau without interruption. BRITNN, JULY 13. Eleven Prussian regiments entered this town yesterday and to-day without opposition. The inhabitants maintained a tranquil attitude, and furnished supplies to the troops as far as they wore able. BRUNN, JOLT 13, AFTSENOON. The King of Prussia has just arrived hers, and the headquarters have been established at the residence of the governor. His Majesty was re ceived by the Bishop of Briinn, Count Schaff galach, the burgomaster, and the authorities, who urged the King to spare the city, and treat the inhabitants with lenity. His Majesty replied in nearly the following terms :—" I am not here of my free choice or free will, but I because the Emperor of Austria has forced me into war. I do not therefore make I war against the peaceful subjects, but against the army of the Emperor. Up to the present I have been victorious, and the valour of my army in spires me with confidence in our further success. I have been obliged to lead hither an unusually large army. I; is very possible that in isolated cases the inhabitants may have cause for complaint, but this will be avoided by their readily supplying my brave troops with the necessaries of life." His Majesty has given a reception to Prince Frederick Charles, and all the Prussian generals in Brunn. BRUNN, Juir 13, EVENING. 45,000 Prussian troops have been quartered upon the inhabitants, who have received them in friendly manner. The Austrian authorities have left, taking with them the funds belonging to government. The commander of the town, Major-General Lengs feld, has appointed Dr. Stieber director of Police, and the latter has re-established the civil adminis tration which had been temporarily interrupted. Iglau is stated to be already in the possession of the Prussians, who have commenced marching upon Znd; lym. PRUSSIA AND SCHLESWIG. SCHLESWIG, JOLT 15. The municipality of Huaum has sent an address to the King of Prussia, felicitating his Majesty upon his victories in Bohemia, which it compares with- the achievements of the great Elector Frede rick, and the victorious struggle of Prussia to deliver Germany from the dominion of Napoleon I. In conclusion the address expresses a wish that the Elbe Duchies may ever remain united to Prussia, and that Germany may attain such • position among the nations of Europe as she has a right to claim. THE PROPOSED ARMISTICE. VIENNA, JuLT 14. The Prcsse of to-day says :—" The proposed mediation of the Emperor of the French is, for the present at least, at an end, and Austria must henceforth trust to her own strength and resources. She is resolved not to hesitate before the most strenuous exertions in order to maintain her position as a great European Power." PARIS, JULY 14. The Droit of to-day announces that legal pro ceedings have been commenced against the Preaae for the publication of false news in a recent article entitled "The Bases of the Armiatice." PARIS, JULY 15. The Moiarm of this morning says :—" The jour nal La France discusses the general import of pre liminaries of peace alleged to have been brought to Paris by Prince Reties. In reality Prince Reuss was simply the bearer of an autograph letter from the King of Prussia to the Emperor. We cannot sufficiently warn the public against attaching cre dence to the news published by papers which be lieve themselves to be well informed, and we again remind the latter of the responsibility they incur."

The following royal manifesto has just been issued hare : To the faithful peoples of my kingdom of Hungary.— The hand of Providence weighs heavily upon us. In the conflict, into which I have been drawn, not voluntarily but through the force of circumstances, every human cal culation has been frustrated, save only the confidence I placed in the heroic bravery of my valiant army. The more grievous are the heavy losses by which the ranks of those brave men have been smitten, and my paternal heart feels the bitterness of that grief with all the families &hooted. To put an end to the unequal contest—to gain time and opportunity to fill up the voids occasioned by the campaign—and to concentrate my forces wood the hostile troops occupying the northern portion of my empire, I have consented with great 'seri hoes to negotiations for the conclusion of an armistice. I now turn confidently to the faithful peoples of my kingdom of Hungary, and to that readiness to make sacrifices so re peatedly displayed in arduous timer. The united exertions of my entire empire must be set in motion, that the con clusion of the wished for peace may be secured upon fair conditions. It is my profound belief, that the warlike sons of Hungary, actuated by the feeling of hereditary fidelity, will voluntarily hasten under my banners to the assistance of their kindred, and for the protection of their I countrs, also immediately threatened by the events of the war. Rally, therefore, in force to the defence of the in vaded empire Be w in th e / laurel sons of your valiant forefathers, whose heroic deeds • never fading wreaths of lau for the glory of the Hungarian name. Vienna, July 7, 1866. Fitiflcis JOSEPH. HOTEL EXPERIENCE AT EIRSINOEN.—A letter from Kissingen, dated the 10th, describing the late capture of the place by the Prussians ' says :—" About 9we heard the fi rst shots red from the bridge, and we could see the Prussians on the ridge of the hill above us, and about 9.30 the filing became continuous, the Prussians occupying the Altenberg opposite and firing on the town. The Kurhans sensibly hung out a white deg, and so escaped many shots ; they had a hospital there. Our hotel bad the brunt of the fighting, as the Prussians soon espied a bridge about a mile below which had not been cut down, so they brought a large force over in that direction, and, as it were, turned the flank of the Bavarians. This brought the battle on our side, and in the peaceful Kargarten immediately in front of our hotel a fearful struggle took place, at one time, I believe, hand-to-hand. As you may suppose, how ever, I did not witness this , for the ballets were flying about all over the front of the hotel, so L— and I sat in the passage, thinking two walls safer than a room with a window in it. The greater part of the male and female population took refuge in the cellar. The Prussians kept gaining ground, and, as the Bavarians had taken ion of our ground floor they attacked them in it. possession standing on the second floor landing and heard the fearful roar of angry men. It warn rather an awkward moment, as we feared lest the Bavarians should retreat upstairs and a struggle take place among us. There were some ladies with us. However, the Bavarians were all overpowered and mode prisoners on the ground Baer, and the Priori:ma then trooped upetairs. We told them we were badge:de (bath visitors) and strangers, which they scarcely • understood at first, as I do not think they understood Kissingen was a watering-place. They were very good natured and did not disturb us at all. They rushed, however, into every room to find Bavarians, but without success. With regard to the general body of Bavarian troop., they retreated up the hill towards Nem ! andt, being shelled from the appoints heights by the Prue ; slams. Long after the Prussians had filled the town, and everything was quiet in the street, the shells were this ring over our heads, and, we hear, did great damage the retreating Bavarians. On going to my bedrrim ° l found everything covered with plaster from a ballet which had ploughed along the cornice. Since .then I have been about to see the results ,of the lightino.

Seaman fell overboard from Terrible, but was picked up ; life saved." AN EXTRAORDINARY VERDICT. THE QUEEN v. TOOMER. Some medical men of the north of London place on record in the Times their protest against the decision of the jury and the sentence of the judge in the above ere. They first direct attention to the statement that a rape was committed on Mime Partridge twice on Sunday night, the 11th of June, that a severe struggle took place, sad on Monday morning there were no marks of violence what ever which were apparent to the medical man who ex amined her ; secondly, when she began to reside with him in the middle t , f May she found no daughter of his to teach, no lodgers with whom she could associate as he (pro mised there would be, yet she remained with hint. Further, on the night of the 6th of June he took her to his bedroom, and " after • night-long struggle effected his purpose." She remained in his bed till morning, and although she attempted to write a letter, whizh was not sent, she stayed till he came home in the evening, and on the following day took • walk with him, and also had her meals with him. On Saturday she took a walk with him again, and said to Gough's sister some time the same day that she would leave him unless he gave her 20!. On Sunday she walked out with him again, and on going to bed asked (lough, who had before slept with her, to go and sleep with her step-sister that night. Miss Partridge also left the door of her room open. There eoner afterwards came into her bed, and remained till morn ing. Now, it would appear that if crape was committed °elite Sunday night (June 11), then also a rape was committed on the Pith of June previous; and if there can be a question of degree that was the most serious offence. She, however, continued to live in the house after the Bth, and made no complaint to her friends—wrote no letter ,• yet she must have known the sort of man he was, and what she might expect if she remained under his roof. It also appears that, having male up her mind to stay in his house, she was on Sunday night so imprudent ea to request Gough, a woman, and perhaps the only person to whom she might look for protection in that dangerous house, not to steep with her, and to leave the door open. The Times &Lys a perfectly monstrous piece of injustice hat been perpetrated, and adds that it cannot doubt that the ease will be reconsidered. lioNot RS AND Arroi wrizENTa. —The Earl of Lone dale will imp the Sunday (Mzette) in all likelihood be re commended to her Mapiety for the Garter vacant by the death of the Marquis of Lansdowne.

THE CHOLERA IN LIVERPOOL.—The child Eliza beth Sullivan one of the cholera patients from the found ling ward, in the Liverpool workhouse, died on Saturday morning : and the other children seized on Thursday were on Saturday not expected to recover. Three other found. liars, two of whom had been nursed by the woman Shaw, who died on Friday, were taken ill, and a child was ad mitted from Milton-street; but the medical men are not without hope that in these cases the effect may prove less serious than Asiatic cholera.
