BUDGET OF WAR DETAILS.
Letter from New York.
(From the Cincinnati Gazette.

NEW YORK, August 81.
The French are Respondent tonight, over
private dispatches about the battle just
Fought, and the Germans are equally jubi-
liant. The Germans are offering heavy
wagers that their army will be under the
walls Of Paris within two weeks, and find
very few takers.
Major General w. B. Hazen sails to-mor-
row to visit the seat of war and witness the
military operations. He intends to Join the
Prussian army and accompany General
Sheridan, though he has a suspicion that the
war will be ended before he gets there.
\ dispatch to a French merchant says an
ambassador has arrived from st. Petersburg
and is communicating with the Ministry
1t is rulnored that he brings an offer of
Russian assistance, provided France will
give certain guarantees about affairs in the
Black Sea. but nothing is positively known.
A letter from Paris. August l9. says the
end of the Imperial game has commenced.
The Emperor is at Rheims. On arriving at
the camp of Chalons he was Kissed at and
hOoted down by the soldiery. Care will be
taken to prevent it from becoming bruited
and to contradict it when buzzed abroad.
but the fact exists. A general sentiment
prevails that we are upon the eve of an alb
dicaton. 1t will of course, De in favor of
our son Louis. and the Empress will be ap-
pointed Regent.
The same correspondent, speaking of the
arrests at Nillette, says: NO doubt exists
of an extensive secret organization. OF
which these criminals constitute only a
small section. They We're armed not only
with long barreled revolvers but with dag
gers made out of long files. The blade be-
ing triangular, internal hemorrhage is SUI
perinduced. and q wound made with it Is
almost certainly fatal. The police have
discovered numerous deposits of revolvers
Il Al, T.
twenty individuals not connected with the
La Nillettc tragedy have been apprehendcd,
upon whom weapons identical with these
were found. 1t is asserted that proofs exist
Of q direct connivance of the culprits with
the agents Of Bismarck. who is accused OF
seeking to create riot and confusion in
Paris, with view to discourage the army

A correspondent, writing from Luxem-
bourg, says: From information carefully
derived from many sources. ! am confident
that the Prussians have now in France at
least A. 900 men of all arms. and that on
the frontier they are now forming a second
host Of half d million more. which will
soon be ready to follow the hrst as Il re
serve. These statements are made on
wholly reliable data, and Will be found to
be perfectly true. The organization OF the
L

most momentouS strategic movement, seems
to have been toreseen and provided for.
and all goes on with mathematical precision
and accuracy. They have 10000 cavalry.
and this force has been of most essential
service. Asfor the commissarIat, hospital and
supply service, it is faultless, and although
the Germans are in a hostile country. and
the French are at home. the former are bet

interview between King William and Bene-

truth IS that when the French ambassador
