LONDON, Aug. 20.-Accounts from Paris
relative to the feeling there state that Paris
is sleepless and excited at the threatening
danger.
No communications have been received
from Marshal Bazaine of late. He is suppoS-
ed to have been cut off.
The reports of the death of the Emperor
were discredited.
Tie Paris official journals publish no war
news this morning. Rumors were preYa-
lent last night that a battle was imminent
between Crown Prince and Marshal Nc
Mahon.
1t is reported that Prussia will shortly
publish fac smile of the document detail
ing the demands France intended to make
of Prussia in case her. arms proved victori-
Gus in the war. This will be pdblished in
Justification of Prussia's determination TO
demand the annexation of Alsace and Lor-
raine and indemnification for the war.

NEW YORK, Aug. 19.-Psr cable comes

a Chapter of Facts.

Space is valuable in a newspaper, and 1T
is therefore proposed in this advertisement
to eondense variety of facts, important to
the public, into a small compass. Those
facts refer to Hostetter's Stomach Bitters-
what that medicine is, and what it will do.
In the first place then, the article is & slim
ulant, tonic and Alternative, consisting of
combination of an absolutely pure spiritu-
Gus agent with the most valuable medicinal
vegetable substances that Botanic research
las placed at the disposal of the chemist and
the physician. These ingredients are COM
pounded with great care, and in such pro-
portions as to produce a preparation which
invigorates without exciting the general
system, and tones, regulates and controls
the stomach, the bowels, IKE liver and the
minor seeretive organs.
What this great restorative VIII 90 must
be gathered from what it has done. Inc
case OF dyspepsia, or any other form OF IN
digestion, in which it has been persistently
administered without effecting a radical
| cure is yet to be heard FROM, and the same
may be said of bilious disorders, intermit
| tent fever, nervous affections, general debil-
| ity, constipation, sick headache, mental de-
spondency, and the peculiar complaints and
| disabilities to which the feeble are so SUBJ
ject. 1t purIfies all the fluids of the body,
including the blood, and the gentle stimu-
lus which it imparts to the nervous system
| is not succeeded by the slightest reaction
| This is chapter of facts which readers,
for their own sakes, should mark and re-
member.

Editor Clarion viii you please notify

State Lunatie Asylum is now, and will con :
tiuue TO be crowded TO its utmost capacity.
As fast as one goes out another comes in.
make this request for the reason that the
friends of many of the unfortunate insane
acting upon the suppositiOn that there is
room enough for all, here on many occa-
sions, applied with the patient at the door.
The law requires that the Superintendent
shall receive the insane in the order I'm
which they apply" and however mortify-
ing it may be to me, / have been compelled
to turn many away after they have spent
much time and money, besides mourning a
great deal of trouble, in bringing the suf-
ferer here.
Please say to those who have insane
friends that, if they will notify me, by let
ter. | will enter the application 1T once on
the list, ard will inform them ut the earliest
possible moment when the patient can be
received. Very respectfully,

Military and Naval Appointments.

In accordance with the invitation of Hon.
Geo. c. Mckee, NJ. c., from this District,
twcnty-one applicants for the positions of
Cadet TO West Point and Midshipman to
Annapolis. presented themselves at the L. ).
Court room on Wednesday last to be exam
med for the respective places, by acOmmit-
Zee selected by Gen. Mckee. The committee
consisted Of Brevet Mai. Gen. Pennypaeker,
oitAe 10th L. ; Infantry, Rev. w. G. Crane,
Rector OF the Episcopal congregation of this
city a graduate of West Point and Prof.
tucker Assistant to the State Superinten-
dent of Education. The applicants We're
examined in most thorough and practical
manner-the committee designing that they
m0s- surely pass the examining board at
Tue respective Institutions to which they
would apply. All stood excellent eXamina-
tohS' aud the positions were awarded to j.
T. Simmons, of Kinds county, to West
FONT and Charley Hull, of this city, to the
Naval School at Annapolis.
The counties of the District were well
represented; Scott sent 3; Holmes, 3; Ran
Kin, 4; Warren, l; Kinds, 10. The ages of
The applicants ranged from sixteen to nine
teen.
Charley Hull, the successful applicant to
Annapolis, is a native of thiscity, the fourth
son Of the late John I. Hull, and is now in
his seventeenth year; youth who has al
ways distinguished himself at the exhibi-
lions OF the various schools he has attended.
An incident worthy of mention was that
ola youth who came to town with a market
wagon, not being aware of the examination
% take place, but so soon as he learned the
L@et' presented himself to the Board and it
was confidently expected by many that he
would be successful, but he failed. Had he
lew days time in which to review and
brush up his studies, he would doubtless
il.
he examination was conducted in a
manner entirely satisfactory to all parties
Interested.
FOR this liberal, unselfish action on the
P"ftof Gen. Mckee, in giving all the youth
VI his Congressional District an opportunity
% gain the coveted places, be deserves the
'AAhks of his constituency.

The WARREN COUNTY FAIR.-The
Herald of this morning concurs in the hope
which we have expressed, that the State
Fair and the Warren County Fair will be so
held a. not to conflict in point of time; ano
suggests that inasmuch as the Directors of
the State Fair changed the time originally
fixed (Oct. 10TH to October 24th. so as TO
accommodate the Tennessee State Fair, that
they now show like courtesy" by fixing
such time as will not conflict with the War
rem County Fair. The Herald further adds
that the Directors must have known that
the date to which they postponed their Fair
would interfere with US of this county" We
assure the nerald, and the Managers of the
Warren County Fair, that the State Fair
Directors were not informed of the time
fixed for the Fair at Vicksburg. until after
the second announcement had been made
for the State Fair; and so far from wishing
to interfere, We know it to be he earnest
desire of all heTeabOuts that no obstacle
shall be thrown in the way of the success CT
the Warren County Fair. If they will hold
their Fair either before or after the State
Fair, both cannot fail being benefited. If
they adhere to the time fixed, visitors to the
one may also be able to attend the other
by accommodating railroad schedules.
