A London telegram dated August
ii, says Napoleon demands of Prus-
sia the ratification of the French
frontier by its extension to the Rhine,
as it was marked prior to its disturb
ance in 1914. The military and
naval preparations which are bcin,
carried on in France induce ii,
belief that the Emperor will make
war if his demands are not complied
with. The demand has caused great
excitement in Berlin. A semi-oficial
paper in Berlin recommends Prussia
to reconstruct Germany as far as pos.
sible, on a basis of the vital and con-
stitutional rights of the States which
are to be annexed to her.
A dispatch of the 18th says thu
official paper Of Berlin opposes the
claim of France for an extension Of
her frontier.
The armistice between Italy and
Austria, which expired on Saturday
last, has been renewed for four weeks,
A Philadelphia dispatch of the
18th says upwards of 800 delegates
to the Convention had arrived, among
the most notable of whom are Thur.
low Weed, Dean Richmond, Sccreta.
rics Randall and S,cadman, Corncliu.
Wendell, Vallandigham. Fernando
Wood, Governors Orr, Sharkcy, Per.
~, A. o. z. Nicholson and Senator
Guthrie.

letter from Judge Advocate Genera

Mexico no Place for Americans.

A Puebla (Mcxico) correspondent
of the Chicago Tribune writes:
If any among your readers intend
coming to this country, advise them
to remain at home a little longer.
There is absolutely no employment
here for any one, save for a few me-
chanics. The country is full Of
Americans seeking something TO do,
and who absolutely have not a dime
with which to purchase food. The
Imperial Railway Company has about
"smashed up" at ali events it has
suspended all operations, and this has
thrown thousands out of WORK.
Those who were economical managed
to lay up a few dollars, but they are
rapidly diminishing under the fearful
inroads Of Mexican prices, and most
of us who have the means will return
10 the States before our money is ex-
hausted. All made money whilst
the work was going on, but generally
our countrymcn, with their accustom-
ed thoughtlessness, spent their wages
as fast as received, expecting to re-
tain their situations for several years.
Such are in a pitiablc plight, and
scores, even hundreds, who four
weeks ago were in comparative aiIlu-
encc, are now pcnniless, and actually
objects Of charity. When peace and
order are rc-established, and public
works are recommended, Mexico will
present superior inducements to
Young men, especially industrious
mechanics and skilled laborers, but
at the present time they have a most
unpromising prospect before them.

%'Iveness truly surprising. Especially
IL this The case on tho line Of The
railroad. Our neighboripg town Of
i'aicsvillc has several large store
houses approaching completion, and
many more IN contemplation, and
thc energetic businessmen Of that
place are driving a lively trade.
The new depot to be established will
shortly assume the proportions of a
thriving place, as We hear Of several
s%torchouses TO be erected by enter
prising citizens. Sardis Is making
gigantic strides towards metropolitan
Importance, and with the wellknown
enterprise Of her citizens, Il will be-
a difficult matter for any of its rivals
TO keep up with Il. We are not
without hopes that our own quiet
town will soon awake from the fatal
lcthargy that has hung over il for
many months, and maintain its proper
place as the capitol Of the county.
The difficulty in obtaining building
lots, owing to the high pricesat which
they were held, Is, we understand,
about to be overcome, as n gentle
man owning the property intends
offering several blocks for sale.
IL gives Us pleasure to note these
signs Of better times ahead, and 10
hear Of the prosperity of the entire
county. With the favorable pros
poets we now have of good crops, we
think our people will be able to free
themselves from the ~burthcnsome
debts which have so long been an
incubus to the general welfare.
