The DEMANDS of the war on the Ger
man population are thus stated BY
correspondent:
One requires to be in Germany to
have brought home to one the full prac-
tical working of system that so sharp
", without distinction of persons, gath
ers in all alike to compulsory service.
The result is that at present in Prussia,
all men between twenty and thirty, not
disabled or for special reasons other
wise employed, are in the field.
1t is painfully impressive to see
the deserted aspect of German
cities. Who does not remember the
busy crowds in the narrow streets OF
Cologne? Now they are dead and
noiseless, with none but boys and old
men 10 share their space with women.
What saw in Cologne | also saw in
other towns. Everywhere the thews
and sinews OF the male population are
gone to the war, and everywhere
| found they did so with admira-
ble readiness. OF course such a
wholesale summoning to arms strikes
heavily, not mere individual existences,
but also the country, through the in
calculable disturbances it creates in in
dustrial establishments. | have one
instance to hand which is we'll calcu-
lated to exemplify this public loss. 1t
is well known to every one what an
enormous foundry is that Of NJ.
Krupp. at Essen, in Rhepish Prussia.
Nearly eight thousand workmen are
employed in it, and am informed on
unexceptional authority, that of these
no fewer than one thousand four hun
dred and lightweight have had to join
their colors to the indescribable loss O
the foundry, as these men comprised
the skilled and absolutely indispensable
artisans; and yet there is no murmur
ing and no replning among the Prus
sian populations at what is being i'm
posed on them.

English View Of the situation
Frussians within n Short March
0f Paris

LONDON, August 26.-The Times this
morning has the following resume Of the
situation King William, leaving a
sufficient force before Metz, where the
siege works rise like exhalations, Joined
the Crown Prince. who was pushing on
for Paris
The movements of Marshal McMa-
hon begin now to be ineligible. A
fugitive from Woerth, avoiding Metz,
he passed through the Vosges to the
Moselle, to Nancy, to Chalons, where he
was reinforced by the Garde Mobile
and volunteers. His obvious aim has
been to bar the passage and prevent
the advance of the Crown Prince on
Paris. Affecting to disregard him the
Crown Prince moved on his flank, past
the camp at Chalons, offering McMahon
battle, which the latter declined, re-
treating on Rheims, leaving the Chalons
camp all to the Prussians. Since that
time Rheims itself has been abandoned.
The obvious motive throughout, on the
part OF the French, has been to avoid a
fight.
The Prussians are now within short
march of Paris, where, perhaps, slight
additional resistance may be met.
BERLIN, August 26.-One corps Of the
First and Second armies still confronts
Bazaine, while the remainder OF the
Prussisns have marched on Paris.

CINCINNATI, August 26.-The En-
quirer of this morning publishes the
following special, dated New York,
Thursday, August 25th: The proprie-
tor of the leading French organ in this
city has positive information from Paris
that Bazaine has effected a junction
with Mcmahon, and is now perfectirg Il
grand strategic movement, which will
finish up, in very few days, the army
of the Crown Prince.
The news received this afternoon that
the Prussians are within sixty-fve miles
is considered Of no importance in the
light of events which occurred week
ago, when the Prussians were about as
near Paris as they are to-day.
Bazaine is known to be anxious for
the Prussian army to push on to Paris,
so as to fall in the clutches of Trochu
who will be ready to attack them in
front, while Bazaine and Mcmahon will
attack in the rear and flank.
That Paris is more hopeful there is
not the least shadow of doubt, all pri-
vate dispatches from London this even.
ing reluctantly acknowledging the same
fact, and wereit not for the unpatriotic
clamor in the Corps Legislatif, a more
confident feeling of those in authority
would be shared by the entire press and
population,
Letters from trustworthy sources, re-
ceived in this city to day, state that
there is trouble with the South Ger
mans Bavaria objects to the annexa-
tion of Alsace, Lorraine and Baden, and
is ready to withdraw her troops unless
she shares equally the advantages gained
10y the war with her more favorite
neighbor

Movements Of MeMahon's Corps.

lSitCltu u lilt
LONDON, August 2j.-The Tribune
special correspondent from Rheims,
tuesday, sends very important and late
news OF French movements, which
were not allowed to be telegraphed yes
terday evening. There were about one
hundred and fifty thousand troops in
and about Rheims under McMahon.
During the night they began to move
toward Ardennes, and are still moving
in that direction. BY noon this place
will be entirely evacuated. They take the
road to Bethel and Meniers, but even the
officers do not know how far they will
20 in that direction. If what is
believed here about Bazaine be true,
the two armies will soon be united.
Bazaine is reported at headquarters to
have said he could beat the enemy on
the 10Th, but If he waited until the 18th
he could annihilate them. This after
noon the march of the troops, which,
began last night, continues. Artillery,
infantry and cavalry pour uninterrupt
edly through the town. 1t is raining
hard tonight ! compute that nearly
two hundred thousand men in all have
passed. There is no longer a doubt
about the direction of this movement
From officers of the baggage and supply
train | learn that they have an
order to 20 direct TO Montmedy.
Two baggagemen who had tried
10 get toward Verdun had been
stopped by the Uhlans, and
all reports agree that every road thither
is picketed by the Prussians. Reorgan-
ization proceeds with the utmost dis
patch AS one example, supply train
OF five hundred wagons, fully equipped,
was organized, aud reached Rheims
from Nerdun in three days. High Off
GERS here are positive that part Of
Bazaine's forces are between Briey and
Etain. Our own movements from
Rheims to join him are made with the
utmost secrecy. The second army OF
reserves now forming near Chalons,
composed of old soldiers, will reach
three hundred and fifty thousand men,
The Emperor will command the lmpe-
rial guard in person.

The WAR !
Denial of French Dispatches
Wurtemburgers Dissatisfied
with Prussia.

New YORK. August pa special
London dispatch to the Tribune says
The arrival of the King at Bar LIE Due,
isthe best comment on French stories as
siduously spread in Paris that the Prus-
slams were caught in trap at Metz.
Mcmahon movements are known to
the Prussians, and they do not think
them of enough consequence TO delay
the advance OF the Crown Prince, or
prevent detachment Of parts OF Stein
metz and of Prince Frederick Charles
forces to strengthen'the column march
ing on Paris. The Prussian front now
stretches thirty or forty miles, the main
column apparently marching by Bar lie
Due and Nitry, while the left wing has
enveloped Chaumont and Brienne from
twenty-five to forty miles south west OF
the line Of march Of the main column.
The French War Office has privately
asserted, nevertheless that Mcmahon and
Bazaine are in full communication ana
pursuing the Prussians, which anybody
NAV believe wholike.
The Worlds special says: An envoy
from Madrid has arrived in Florence TO
reopen negotiations for offering the
Spanish thrown to Prince Thomas OF
Genoa, son of Duchess of Genoa and
brother-in-law of Prince Royal of Italy.
The Papal Government no longer op-
poses the plan if Marquis kayold,
step-iather OF the Prince, iavors its re-
lrption. The Prince is 10 years old.
TIE same correspondent telegraphs
from London: have now the key OF
the recent Wurtemburg mission to Eng
land. The Court and the people Of
Wurtemburg are both dissatisfied with
the course OF the Prussian Govern
ment. Tn contingent of Wurtemburg
in the Crown Princes army has been
massed with that OF Baden IN corps and
put under command, not of any Wur-
temberg officer, but OF Prussian, Gen
eral Won Werdan, second in com
mand of the Crown Prince as
Governor OF Stettin. This gives
great otiense in the field and at Stutt-
CART. More that the Bavarian corps
are commanded by Bavarian Generals
Won Undsendertan and Won Hart
mann.
The King of Prussia has also an
nounced his intention of bestowing
Alsace and Lorrania upon his son,in-
law the Grand Duke OF Baden whose
dominions are on the coast with Wur-
temburg. Against all of this Wurtem-
burg chafes and is preparing to resist
the projects OF the PruSsian Crown.
The mission of General Piole to Rome
has been entirely successful.
The Italian army is moving to from
tiers and there are no symptoms now re-
manning Of trouble either in Pontlfical
States or in Italy.
