Tho Franco-Prussinn War.

In spite of the hopeful assurances that
emanate from Paris, we feel satisfied that
the latest advices from the seat of war in
dicate that oil the advantages are with
the Prussians, and that the French are
in n desperate strait, from which only n
brilliant and decisive victory can relieve
them. So far as we may judge from the
confused and contradictory kilograms
that come to US, our examination Of the
map, of the seat of strategy and war con-
vinces us that the Prussiau advance to
Paris has turned North to confront
McNIahon, and that the Prussians have
wedged themselves between NIcAIahon
with his 10000 men and Bazaine with
his 100000.
The FSench seem "cribbei and con-
hned" in small piece of territory bor-
aering on Belgium, and lying between
Metz, Verdun, Sedan. and Thionville.
It is, however, useless to speculate rs to
the result, as ere this great battle has
been fought, which will probably decide
the matter in the vicinity of Metz.
Should McMahon and Bazaine be out
done, then the son to Paris" will be
promptly taken up by the victorious in
yaders. It is undeniable that the French
fight with desperate valor, but from first
to last they have been confronted with
vastly superior numbers, to say nething
Of q valor not less than their own. What
commentary on the boasted civiliza-
tion of this century is this unnecessary
duel where men fall by thousands, and
suffering is entailed upon women and
children, and industry is paralyzed!
Alas! that bread should become so
dear in France, and human life SO cheap
Well has it been observed that if the
XIX century has made many improve
ments, it has not yet changed human
nature. If our "sunsets are as rich il
gold, as ere the Iliad's music was out
rolled;" so, also, are the passions of mel
now not unlike those which moved tht
"fierce Ulysses" years and years ago.

FIRST TRAIN OVER THE New RAILROAD
BRIDGE.-The new railroad bridge over
the Savannah river, Mt the foot of Wash
ington street, the construction OF which
was commenced by the Charlotte, Co
lumbia and Augusta Railroad, little
over one year ago, has been so far COM
pleted as to be ready for the passage of
trains.
The contractor, Mr.. D. NJ. Renno,
Of North Carolina, in the erection of tho
superstructure, has reared another mon.
ument to his skill and success in bridge
building, the structure presenting to the
eye every evidence of strength and dura-
bility, lacking only the roof an,i other
external appliances to give it IL finished
appearance. The masonry work was
executed by Mr.. W. Murdoch, also Of
North Carolina, and is model of gran
ite laying.
The bridge is Of tho How Truss -
patient, of five spans, one hundred and
eighty feet each III length, making the
extreme length of nine hundred feet
from abutment to abutment, and will
rank with the best and most approved
railroad bridges in the country, support
ed as it is by four substantial piers Of
nntive granite, built upon a solid fonn-
dation in the bed Of the river, with
abutments OF the same material
An engine and car will pass over the
bridge for the first timo this afternoon,
at O'Clock, to test its security.

( Mr.. EDITOR: have had occasion to
travel, during the present summer, by
private Conveyance, through gthe five
central Counties OF this State, and was
much gratifed to find everywhere indi-
cations Of progressive improvement in
farming operations. More attention is
given to thorough preparation of the
soil and careful tillage. Many Of our
planters havo turned to farming in earn
est, and soft, fair hands, so sickeuiug in
IL man, have given place to hard palms
and manly fists. This is real progress
and will soon tell in our country's mate
rial advancement. In passing through
Fairfield County, few weeks ago, I had
the pleasure of inspecting the crops of
those two model planters, Mr.. Stephen
Gibson and DR.. John NJ. Glenn. rode
over DR.. Glenn's entire crop, and must
say it was the finest I ever saw in any
State. And this is owing to an ire
pressiblc determination to succeed In-
stead of whining and repining i'll un.
manly and lazy despondency over the
unfortunate condition Of the country, lie
has gone to work, and with indomitable
energy, and an intelligent application of
every available means, he is rapidly "re-
constructing" his estate. saw field of

did not SEQ the whole of Mr.. Gibson's
crop. But desire to mention particu-
larly one field of reclaimed land that
did see. This was the best field of cot
ton I ever saw. T never could be in
duced to believe that five bales of cotton
could be made to the acre until I saw
this. All honor to the iron-willed, but
noble old man. who so gallantly grapples
with the difficulties and troubles of the
times, and conquers them. If "ho is a

Gilbert tried in vain to tell liiS
gratitude, but the merchant saw it
all and with tears in his own eyes
he blessed the boy, and then babe
him 60 about his work.
The year passed away, and then
another boy came to take Gilbert's
place, for the latter took IFS sthtldfl
in the counting-rbom. But the
new came not as boys Ind come be-
fore. The merchant promised to
pay him so much per week, enough
for all practical purposes, and then
he felt that he would not be resboits

At the age at seventeen Gilbert
Goodwin took the place Of one Of
the assistant book-keebefs, and at
the age Of nineteen he took his
place at the head of the counting
room; for to an aptness at figures
and an untiring application to dityj
he added a strength OF moral mteg-

most invaluable.
And now he has grown up to 70

was so intimately connected with

been his wife for several years.
He Is still in the house of Mr.
Phelps; and occupies the p6sitioh
of business partner, the old mer-
chant having given up work, and
now trusting all to his youthful
associate. Gilbert Goodwin has
seen many young men fall, and he

wide road of temptation which IS
open to mahy more; and he will
ave no persons in his employ to
whom he cannot afford 10 pay 4
