Though che war has been actively con-
tinued we have had but little to give to
our readers for the last two weeks.
strasburg has fallen. Metz still holds
out. Bazaine has made a number of
efforts to break through the, Prussian
lines, but has always been repulsed with
heavy loes. Reports b. We heretofore
said that he acknowledged the authority
of the emperor only. The last report is
that he now acknowledges the authority

The report that Moltke was dead is
now acknowledged to be incorrect. A
report now has it that Prince Frederick

Paris is well fortified, and some reports
say it is provisioned for three or six
months, whilst others are much less favor
able in this respect. There has been con-

Garibaldi has arrived at Tours with
some thousand soldiers and was given a.
warm reception. He made speech and
said the. lnvader.could be driven out of
France and that they would meet again
in the army. He has been given COM
mand of an army to operate in the

It is one of the dogmas of the modern
lady that she must not do anything for
paw; end this miserable prejudice of
senseless con7entionality is at this mo-
ment the worst obstacle in the way of
feminine talent and energy. Let the CO.
operative housekeepers demolisEl it for
ever by declaring that it is just IS neces-
sary, and just as honorable for q wife to
earn money as it is for her husband; let
them, moreover, resolve that time and
skill is what they will pay for, and not
sex, and the age viii soon see what efforts
women can make after excellence when
there is hope of just reward for it. Then
alone shall we begin to walk in, selfres-
pect, and the poor, wronged wcrkwoman
