PARIS, July 25.-The number of volun-
teers already enrolled in France is 1l0, 600
l. It is tOlerably certain that the Duke de Pa
ikao will be commander-in-chief of the
army of the Baltic.
The Journal O1sciel of this morning pub
fishes decree closing the sessions Of the
Senate and Corps Legislatif. The Journal
has several other official declaratiOns-One
touching the inviolability of the neutrality
| of neighboring powers, and another in re-
gard to strengthening the Notifications of
France.
1t is reported to-day that the Emperor
has gone to Cherbourg to visit the feet.
It is now said that the Emperor will 90 to
the front about next Thursday.
No report Of battle yet received; indeed,
none is expected for several days.
The MarseiLaise appeared again to-day.
1t had an article announcing the cessation
of publication on account of measures
which have been taken by the government
against the press
The archbishop of Paris returned from
Rome yesterday, and was received by the
Emperor and Empress.
Upon her return from Cherbourg the EN-
press will visit the troops at StrasbOurg and
Metz
The Journal Offciel contains the follow
ing declaration 'The French government
has issued orders that in the prosecution of
the war the commanders of the French
forces will scruWllously regard with respect
the neutral powers, and the rules of in
ternational right, and that the especially
conform to the principles of the declaration
of the Paris congress of 1856, as follows:
Privateering is abolished. The neutral flag
protects the enemy's merchandise, except
what is cOntraband Of war.
''The merchandise of the neutral, except
what is contraband of war is not seizable
under foreign flag. A blockade must be
effective
''Although Spain and the United States did
not adhere to the declaration of 1856, French
vessels will not seize property of the enemy
when such property is. the cargo of
Spanish or an American vessel, provided it
is not contraband of war. .s
'France will no longer claim the right to
contiscate the property of Americans or
Spaniards found on board of vessels of the
enemy"
The official journal announces that the
Minister Of War has given instructions to
commence putting in state of defense and
readiness for active service the old fOrtitica-
tions of Paris and the forts beyond the
present line of works.
The official journal also reports that in
spite of the interdiction pronounced by the
government certain journals continue to
give news of military movements, to the
great detriment of the national cause The
government had hoped that it's appeal, made
to their patriotism would be regarded. 1t
will be a matter of regret if force shall be
found necessary to secure the recognition Of
the laws.

LONDON, July 25.-The Morning Telegraph

A fortnight ago the Emperor had no
thought of war on Prussia. He was still I'M

his hands, and in order to rule he must lead
France to war
The Emperor related the contents of dis
patches between himself and Bismarck,
claiming that the latter wanted too much
and wanted it too soon.
The Emperor demanded Lrlxemburg in
1866 as an equivalent for his neutrality IN
Prlssia's contest with Austria. Bismarck
replied by demanding Holland as an equiv
alent for Luxemburg. The Emperor replled
to this demand of Bismarck, that should
the independence of Holland be attacked
by Prussia. it would be regarded as a
declaration of war. Count Benedetti was
present at the interview when these facts
were elected.

A Great Invention.

Messrs H. & C. T. Smith of Colchester,
Conn, are exhibiting at 165 Water street,
next door south of the First National Bank in
this city, two machines of wonderful power
threshing machine and saving machine.
These gentlemen have been here only a few
days, but during that time the store which
they temporarily occupy has been filled with
interested spectators witnes sing the opera
tons of the machines. All our farmers, who
have dreaded each year the coming OF the in
evitable threshing machine, will be interested
in this one. 1t is a hand machine, and re-
quires no horse power. The power is COM
municated to the revolving fails by two pull
leys working in different directions on spin
die suspended between them, something the
same as though it were top moved by the
friction of the hands. The motion is very
rapid and the friction so slight that very
little power is required to run it. A man
with one of these machines can with ease
thresh 100 bushels of grain a day about 80
turns of the driving wheel giving 1000 blows
of the fail. The machine has been in use at
the barn of the exhibitors in Colchester, and
has elected the admiration of all who have
seen it. 1t was patented in March last by
George NJ. Rhoads and George B. Hamlin.
1t was our privilege yesterday, in company
with many of our citizens, to witness the prac-
teal operations of this machine, and we have
no hesitation in commencing it to all our
farmers for it embraces principle that is as
old as the world and cannot ''go back on the
inventors. Some of our most prominent citi-
zens have carefully examined the workings of
both machines, and are ready to give in their
verdict of approval, The Messrs. Smith will
remain here for short season, and we advise
citizens and strangers to give them call
