The Scavengers.

We are surprised to notice, among
a few of the newspaper men of the
VI District, an effort to be won drously
witty at the expense, or over the de-
feat of Hon. Charles Pomeroy, for
Congress. 1t is STOPPING lower than
any respectable journal can well af-
ford, and we assume to say that a
journalist is but writing himself an
ass who will presume to speak other
wise than respectfully, at least, of
Mr.. Pomeroy. True, he was defeat
ed for second term, but it does not
alter the fact that he was a Member
of influence at Washington, and has
served with general satisfaction to
his constituency. He was unfortu-
nate i'm not being able to give every
man n Post Office or a foreign mis-.
sion, as it was admitted at the cons
vention that the cause of his defeat
was to be attributed to the hestow-
ment and on-bestowment of the
little patronage at his disposal. En-
Tors in this particular he may have
committed, but il does not destroy
the reputation which he bears at
Washington as an earnest and eff
cient member.

The annual election, this fall, will
inaugurats the new system of coun
ty government. The nineteen su
pervisors, i'm this county, will bs
reduced TO three. This reduction o.
the number will make the election
of greater importance than hereto
fore. II is essential that the best
men in the county be chosen to fl
these offices-men of experience
integrity, and of excellent bushes:
qualifications. The advantages oil
the new system over the one now in
force will greatly depend upon the
selection of the me n for these offices.

Position of the Contending Armies.

The dispatches from the seat of
war furnish us at last with intelligi-
bile information as to the location of
the cOntending armies. The French
line extends from Sierck, village
on the northeastern boundary of
France, at its junction with Luxum-
burg and Rhenish Prussia, along
the valley of the Moselle through
ThiOnville, Metz, and Sarrebourg to
Stratsbourg on the Rhine. The
PrIssian forces appear to be only a
few miles distant, following the line
of the Sarre from Treves, through
Merlig, Saar- Louis, Sarrbucken to
Forest in Baden. A despatch from
Berlin says that on Saturday Morn
ing the French attacked Sarrbruck-
en- in largely superior force, but
were vigorously repulsed. Sarr-
brucken is on the boundary line
between France and Rhenish Prus-
STA, and the action at that place,
however unimportant it may have
been, indicates that it Is the determ-
ination of the Prussan forces to adj
NIT of no invasion of the territory
at any point, but rather to conduct
the fighting on the French side Of
the line. French journals say that
the Prussians have 10000 men un-
der arms, including 1000 near
Schelswig and 10000 near Berlin
They add that the triangle between
the Treves, Mayence, and river Lau-
ter is flied with soldiers. This tri-
angle includes the Palatinate, o.
Rhenish Bavaria.
Probably the French account Of
the number of the Prussian forces is
somewhat exaggerated, but there can
be no doubt that an immense army
has been collected during the past
Two weeks. When Napoleon set
forth upon his campaign, it was the
general expectation that he would
march promptly across the German
frontier, and strike an important, If
not decisive, blow before the Prus-
slams are prepared but since the
arrival of his forces at Metz and
Thionviile, they seem to have come
to q sudden pause, and wherever
they have crossed the frontier, they
have run against something hard
and have immediately returned
The extreme circumspection with
which the French movements have
been conducted since they arrived
within striking distance of the
enemy has led to the belief, In
England, that the next forward
movement will be made by the Prus
siaEs in the direction of Paris. It's,
of course, useless TO speculate upon
the fortunes Of war in which such
tremendous forces are engaged but
enough is already known to assure
us that the German forces have not
been taken by surprise-that they
are not unprepared for the encounter
and that Napoleon had ample justi-
fication for telling his troops that,
