General steinmetz's NIoyements-The Terrific
Fight OF the 10th Instant.
BERLIN, Aug. 19.-The St0dtdnzetger of this
city has the following details of General Stein
metz's movements:-The General succeeded in
engaging the enemy while the latter was re-
treating from Metz in a southerly direction, and
obliged him to pause near Arricark, where, APP
preaching on the left bank of the river, Prince
Frederick Charles overlook the French left on
the 10th. The Prince had the Sd Corps, just
arrived from Verdun. This corps, although it
had been engaged at Ssarbrucken and Forbach.
instantly attacked the enemy in company with
General Stulpnagel's 5th Division, and main
tanned its ground against superior force for
six hours, until the Hanover corps, with the 22d
and 25th Divisions arrived on the scene. These
six divisions, under Prince Frederick Charles
repulsed the Sd, 4th, I'd, and 9th Divisions of
the French and the Imperial Guards. The
Prussians took 1000 prisoners, two eagles, and
seven guns, and constrained the enemy to a
rapid movement from the banks of the Meuse to
the fortified city of Metz.
King williams Peace Conditions.
The New York TeegrG0t's London special

her services and expenses in the war. Fourth
That Napoleon III be deposed, and that an Or

vile THE document published by the Times con-
tans one of the proposals which have been made to
since the Danish war by official and unofficial
French agents, with the object of establishing an
alliance between Prussia and France for their mu-
offer made in 1866, according to which France
proposed to aid Prussia with 100000 men
against Austria, and to permit Prussa's
ACKNOWLEDGMENT 10y six or eight millions of subjects
in return for the cession to France of the district
between the Rhine and the Mosele. The impossi-
bty of agreeing to this course clear to all
except French diplomatists. On this proposition
being rejected, the French Government began to
calculate upon our defeat France has not ceased
to tempt us with offers to be carried out at the
cost OF Germany and Belgium. In the inte-
rests OF peace kept them secret. After the Lux
emhurg affair the proposals dealing with Bel
gium and South Germany were renewed. N. Bene-
detti's manuscript belongs to this period. 1t is not
likely that NJ Benedettt acted without the Empe-
tension of territory was attanable in conjunction
with must have matured the resolve to obtain it by
1ghtingus Ihave even grounds for believing that,
had not this project been made public after our
armament on both sides complete, France
would have proposed to us jointly to carry out M.
Benedettis programme against unarmed Europe,
and to conclude peace at Belgiums cost IL the
French Cabinet now repudates aims, for our parti-
cipaton in which 1t has unnterruotedly labored

The Battle Of LoBRueviIIe.
The Figaro to-day has the following details of
the battle of Longueville:-
The battle occurred at Borny, four kilome-
tres (about 81 miles) from Metz, and not at
Lenguevile, as has been stated. The battle oc-
Cured on Sunday. Half of our army, which
was about 200, 600 strong, were passing the Mo-
selle at that place on one bridge. The Prussians
made mistake and attacked about an hour too
soon. The corps of General L'Admirault aud
De Caen were able to face the enemy in about
half an hour from the time the first attack was
made
tifcations of Metz, but which apparently did
not contain any indication of Fort St. Quintin,
for in trying to avoid Fort st. Julien they
marched directly towards Fort St. Quintin,
which, when they came within easy range,
opened very destructive fire on them. In their
confusion the Prussians retreated and came
within range of the guns of Fort St. Julien,
which also opened fire, increasing the loss of
the enemy. The Prussians then attacked
another point of our position, which was de-
Tended by only one regiment of infantry and a
masked battery of mitrailleuses.
The latter Immediately uncovered and made
great havoc in the ranks of the Prussians.
Firing ceased at half-past in the evening, hay
ing lasted from o'clock. We had about one
thousand killed and perhaps as many wounded.
The Prussians sent flag of truce demanding an
armistice for the purpose Of buryng the dead.
They admitted the loss of 5000 thousand killed.
The armistice was refused. In this battle the
1st Corps of Prussians was commanded by
General Manteuffel and the 7th Corps by Count
Zastrow. Tney had $4,000 infantry SO. 900
cavalry, and 90 guns.

Census Beturne.

Despatch 70 the Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-The returns of the
census are reaching the Superintendents Office
now very rapidly. The reports of the euumera-
ton in nearly the whole of Kansas were re-
ceived-to-day, and the United States Marshal of
San Francisco reports that he expects by the
first of September to have concluded the entire
enumeration of California. The returns from
the Southern States are the slowest coming in.
and the Marshals complain that some difficulty
is experienced in obtaining information from the
colored people, owing to the inability of great
numbers of them, who live in the interior coun-
ties, to give correct responses to the questions
propounded by the census officials. Already the
returns indicate vast increase in the population
of the cities around New York. Although New
York itself shows an absolute increase, there is
not proportionately any similarity in the extent
of that noted in Brooklyn or in any of the cities
surrounding and Immediately contiguous to the
great centre of trade and capital.
