Another great battle had been fought
| PARDUBITz, June 27, P. M.-Since II
o'clock this morning continuous fire Of
artillery has been kept up by the Austrian

the Prussians were beaten and in full re-
treat, leaving their dead and wounded on
the field.

gagement which took place yesterday at

AN HOUR IN BATON ROUGE.
STEAMER CHINA SHINES, y
OFF Baton Rouge,
Saturday Morning, June Both, 1866.


Mr. Edator-This morning, old Sol was
pouring down his almost vertical rays, as
| the swan-like steamer CHINA SHINES "
rounded to at Baton Rouge, on her trip to
| Bayou Sara. We had been on q flying
trip to the Crescent City, but was ex-
| tremely anxious to remain few days in
Baton Rouge; and quite en- animated dis
cussion between business and pleasure was
the result; but on putting the question to
vote, business carried the day, by the cast
ing vote of the naover, and thus we were
forced to forego the pleasure, of the warm
and kindly greetings of the many friends,
we feel just pride in recognizing in Ba-
ton Rouge; however, Capt. Greathouse,
the polite and accomm odating master of
the "Simmes," granted us permission to
ego up town." and he would wait one
hour, and if we did not return on the ring
ing of the steamers bell, he would wait
until we did return, but in no case would
he leave without us; thus armed with an
indefinite furlough, we left the steamer.
and concluded to call and pay our deuoirs

we called for bottle of "Sparkling Ca

a fragrant Havana in our mouth, we
crossed our pedal extremities and elevated
them "szigAtua12y" above the angle of 45o

POLICE UNIFoRMs.-The balance
of the police uniforms, manufactured
in New York, have arrived, and in a
few days we may expect to see the
"city guardians" turn out in full
force in their official dress. The
uniforms arrived on the steamer Gen.
Grant, and were to be delivered to
the Chief of Police yesterday. The
suits are furnished at SIS each and
are of light worsted material, suitable
for summer. The coats are sacks,
with metallic buttons, on which are
raised a crescent with the letters
"police" underneath. The hats are
of panama, on the bands of which
are to be designated the respective
numbers of the officers, coupled with
the words, "city police" They
are furnished at So IS each. Thus
habited he that runs may see who is
a policeman, though he may not
read.-Neso Orleans Bee.

The NORTH PoLE.-Two French
men recently explored the Island of
Spitzbergen in manner never before
do ne. They measured the mountains,
mapped the whole coast, examined
the vegetable products, the geological
composition, etc., Of the island, and
found that the long day, extending
over several months, during which the
sun never sets, became intensely hot
afterga month or two.

70 A curious phenomenon oc.
cured during a thunder storm, al
Little Rock, on the 30th. Three
globes of fire descended into the
woods near the city, tearing branches
completely off of several trees, and
then exploding into innumerable
pieces. After the storm fragments
of fire still remained, and could not
be extinguished by water. Severe
shocks could be felt by touching
them with metal wires.

ROMAN LoAN.-The head of the
Catholic Church has appealed to the
people of the United States to lend
him four millions of money, and the
clergy have taken hold of the matter
and are pushing it with all the nat
ural energy of the faith. Pope Plus
TX. says he is temporarily embar-
raised, and that four millions will
put him over the hard times until
France and Italy have decided how
to pay the Papal State debt. The
interest is about equal to seven and a
half per cent in gold, and The hitherto
unbroken faith Of the Pontifcal gov
eminent is pledged for the redemp-
ton of the loan. 49, /
Somebody says that the quickest
and easiest way to raise this money
would be to get the Methodist
Church started in opposition, and
that the faithful would come down
with the greenbacks in short order.
There is more truth than poetry in
this assertion, for the Methodists
certainly do consider the Catholic
Church as their greatest enemy, and
the Catholics meet the issue bravely,
and fight the denunciation with the
greater zeal and fervor. However,
there is no doubt about the success
Of the scheme, for the Catholics of
America are not only rich enough to
help the Pontif to double the amount
that he asks, but they are a united
and Jealous people, and believe in
doing good works. 1t is probable
the Roman Church has made greater
advances in wealth and members in
America in the last quarter of CEN
fury, than in any other country; and
that the pace of its increase is rather
on the rise than otherwise.-Neso
Orleans Herald.

gaF Military men in Europe claim
that the advantage Of tactical forma.
ton is with the Austrian army. The
Prussians fight 10 deep, close column
the Austrians have adopted the loose,
open column of the French, which is
scarcely to be called column; it is
more like two or three lines following
each other at twenty or thirty yards
distance, and is not much more ex.
posed to losses by artillery then de-
ploy line. The Prussian artillery,
however, is undoubtedly the best.

The RHErT AssAssINAroN.- The
Washington correspondent of the N

says: "The statement telegraphed,
from the Sonth that Ex-senator Rob.
ert Barnwell Rhett, of South Caro-
lima, the former we'll known secession
and notification leader, had been as
sassinated, was erroneous. The per.
son murdered was Benjamin S. Rhett,

has never been in political life. He
