GEN. LOUIS JULES TRocnu.-This Off.
Ger, who was selected 10 command the
expeditionary force destined for the Baltic,
but which has been postponed in conse.
quencc of tho French defeats on the Saar,
Is now ut Metz, where, doubtless, he holds
a responsible position. The Army and
Naev Journal, whose editor is well quail
fed 10 give an opinion In such matters,
says "Gen. ,Trochu Is to-day undcniably
the best soldier Of France" he is grad.
uate OF the Staff School Of St. Cyr, and
tltty-Ave years Of age. At the commence
ment of the Crimean war he was
made Chief Of the General Staff,
and by reference to KinglRkes History
Il will be seen that, in all conferences with
Lord Raglan, Trochu, rather than ST.
Arnaud or Canrobert, was spokesman on
the part Of France. The presence Of SO
skillful IN officer at the scat OF whr may
prove of vast benefit TO the French, who
thus fur in the struggle seem to have been
out-generaled rs well as Out.fought. Some
time since, referring to Gen. Trochu, the
same paper put on record this prophecy :
"ShouId the war survive its first battle u
fortnight, and promise, as seems very like
", to be long one, Trochu's name may
chance to appear at the head ofthc French
armies" .r .n. s.If

OPINION OF FOREIGN BANKERs.-A
New York letter to the Philadelphia
Ledger says the opinion generally prevails
among the foreign bankers and others in
New York, who are known to be in fre-
quent business communication with Lon.
don and Paris, that there will be no great
battle fought between the French and
Germans for a week or ten days to come.
AS this impression Is contrary TO the
newspaper reports, the only question is,
whether the foreign bankers have sources

THE WAR AND THE BREADsTUFF MAR.
KEr.-The three victorieggained by Prus'
sia in her conflict with France (says the
Chicago Republican, have had dcprcss.
ing influence on prices of breadstufs In
nearly every market in tho world, and
threaten prove pecuniarly disastrous tc

stufis TO hold, in anticipation that the
struggle would be prolonged for suiti'
cient period to cause q scarcity 10 the home
production, and thereby increase the value
In brcadstuiEs for salc by foreign nations
Furthermore, gold is tumbling rapidly
and American bonds are advancing both
at home and abroad. That q very large
amount Of capital has been invested In
breadstufTS in anticipation Of q large rise
in values, we presume no one will attempt
to deny. The people In this country know
tho effects on value Of many commodt
ties Of q long war, and those who had
capital 10 spare were bound 10 take ad'
vantage Of what they thought q favorable
situation. War Is very uncertain, how
ever, and Notwithstanding the depression
now existing in tho brcadstufEs markets, 9
victory over the Prussians would no doubt
change the aspect in affairs very much,
and make rich men Of those who arc poor
to-day because they have on hund o
quantity Of wheat or other grain fol
which they paid o higher price than they
could now obtain therefor did they place
their property on the market There was
general tumble in prices In the Chicago
market on Wednesday. We would ad
wise all parties to act with caution, and
not Jump Mt conclusions too readily, aE
there Is rcallyno telling what n day may
bring forth. The war may close In q
fortnight, and again 1t may not terminate
in several years.

horrible affair occurred in Uxbridpe
Mass, Saturday night. State. Constable Sam
uel Fletcher, Within sville, accompanied by a
man named Clark, visited house in Tx
bridge, kept by Patrick Collins, with the in
tention of searching for liquor and making
arrests The object of their visit being made
known they were attacked by Collins and his
wife and three Irishmen who were present.
They were terribly beaten and bruised, and
Fletcher was thrown upon the floor and held
by the four men while Mrs. Collins stabbed
him several times in the head and face with a
knife. Clark made his escape and gave the
alarm. A number of people were aroused and
proceeded to Collins's house, it being about
tour o'clock Sunday morning, but Fletcher
could not be found. The church bells were
rung and the whole population turned out.
After dligent search he was found, about six
o'clock, insensible, in Mr.. Henry Taft's barn,
about quarter of mile distant from Col
lns's house. The four men and the woman
were arrested, and Fletcher was able to iden-
tfy them. The opinion of the physician is
that Fletcher will not survive
Among the incidents of the Richmond dis
aster are many of an exceedingly remarkable
character. A Northern lady and gentlemen,
Miss rockingham and her father, of Brook
Ign, N. Y, who were viewing the surrounding
country from the cLpola Of the building at the
time of the sad event, were entirely cut off for
nearly two hours, and were kept in terror in
their lofty prison, from which they could wit
ness the movements OF the excited crowd be-
low, the display of dead and dying on the
square, the endless scene of confusion, with
the tolling of bells, wailing OF women and
children, without the remotest idea of the &C.
casion of it all. In this predicament they re-
manned, all escape being cut OF by the falling
of the staircase by which they had assembled,
until by breaking thorough skylight they
succeeded in reaching the open air, where they
beheld in allits horrors the disas ter that SO
nearly included them among its victims.

:. At is said here that the new daily which
makes its appearance in New York to-mor-

Young, is to reflect more nearly than any 9th.

and opinions of President Grant. / do not
mean to say that it is to be in any sense a
personal organ, but those who are well in
formed believe that the able journalist who is
to direct is in closer relations with the White
House, than any other member OF his profess
