COBLENTz, ON THE RHINE
n

July, %, 1870
The "Jungfrau," the unspotted and
impregnable "Ehren breitstein," Hon.
or's Broad Stone of the Rhine, casts
the shadow Of her very effective SUBJ
stance over me as l begin another epis-
tie from the Rhine banks. l left Co.
logne by military train yesterday after
noon amid most intolerable heat, and
we trundled throuh the beautiful
Rhine valley all the afternoon stop
ping at every station at least five min
utes, to allow the stout young country
men to sing their parting songs kiss
their sweethearts, and take seats for
the war. As we left Cologne we
could see that extensive preparations
had been made for putting it in a
state of siege. Trees had been cut
away here and there in front of some
of the outer lines of Notifications, and
thousands OF men were engaged on the
earthworks. The Cologne people do
not believe they will come to a state
of siege, and our landlord laughed
heartily at the panic of some newly-ar-
rived EDglishmen yesterday.
SCENES ALONG THE ROUTE.
The ride from Cologae to Coblentz
is among the finest In Germany, and
certainly one cannot blame the French
for being envious of SO perfect val
ley, inhabited by so thriving and hon.
est people. Our train had at least
fifty cars, all crowded with soldiers
and their officers when we started, and
the number was largely increased on
the way. At the pleasant little vine-
covered stations hundreds of the peas
antry were gathered, shrieking for the
news, and tumbliDg pell- NELL over each
other in frantic efforts to carry beer
to the "Morituri" in the cars. "DuP'
sang out some lusty felIog-a husgar
or huge fat landwehr, bring me a
dropP' Straightway a dozen brim.
ming glasses would be held up at the
window, and hundreds of eyes wonId |
admlringly watch the departing hero |
drink his beer. Now and then the |
red-capped head of an officer would |
appear out at the window of a. first |
class carriage, and a harsh voice
would say, Sit ye down. Drink not"
But nature oVercame even these stiff /
iscipllnarians, and they grinned to see
their men sacrificing on the altar of
Gambrinus as well as OF Mars. At
Bonn, the enthusiastic university
town, every man had bought two bot
ties of beer to present to the soldiers !

Formidable rumors of the probable
resolve to defend the Prussian fleet in
the Baltic are now circulating, and
Austria's expressed intention to drop
neutrality if Russia interferes gives a
more serious aspect to this gigantic
struggle. The frank confession ofthe
King of Prussia, by his an
nouncement that French trading

that he does not colnt his navy
as a reliable portion Of his forces
may have some influence in restrain

disastrous. Prussia has only forty

I,549 cannon. Others are being fitted
out, but could hardly come into play
in time. All her Important naval
points are on the Baltic. and are but

The force she must encounter IN the

speak OF the crushing effect the pres

Facing Coblentz is a rugged chain of
hills. eliminating opposite the mouth
of the Moselle in the abrupt and
glorious crag OF Ehrenbreitstein.
Down by the river nestles little vii
lage, with queer old peaked roofs and
round towers, and antique windows
flashing in the sun; and above these
are white villas in the midst of gar
dens which seem to cling fearfully to
the rocks. The fortress is absolutely
unapproachabIe save from one side,
and there q double row of bastions
must be taken before the enemy can
possess it, It commands a fine view
of the river and all the country

PARAMOUNT PARK under the manage
ment of the Park Commissioners is rapid
ly becoming an ornament to the city of
Philadelphia; and even now, will CON-
pare favorably with the Central Park, of
which the New Workers are so justly
proud.
1t is but few years since the Fair
mount Park covered only five acres, and
when we consider that it has grown to its
present enormous size-comprising nearly
three thousand acres-and that the city
has acquired the title to all this land,
with an outlay of little more than
three and quarter millions of dollars,
we do not feel surprised that the Com
missioners think they have reason to be
gratifed with the success of their labors.
From copy of their report now be-
fore us, accompanied by maps, showing
the extent of the Improvements made,
we cannot help a feeling of astonishment
at the amount of labor which has been
done in so short time.
1t is, however, one of the things that
cannot be properly appreciated without
being seen, and we advise every reader
who visits Philadelphia, to devote one day
to the examination of this beautiful place,
and they will consider that Philadelphi-
ans have good reason to feel proud of
PARAMOUNT PARK.

Bold Robbery.

Last Monday night thieves effected an
entrance to the gold and silver-plating
establishment of George p. Pilling, N.
W. corner of Seventh and Chestnut streets
and robbed it of $1,000 worth of silver,
ware, Masonic jewels, &c. The rascals
entered off Seventh street, by means Of
false keys. They then "jimmied" the
door leading to the office, and once in
side commenced working at the safe
To prevent jarring, they placed the we'd
ges in the side, and under the wheels cot
ton pads. They then took ten-pound
sledge-hammer and battered the doro
off the hindges. The rascals were evil
IDENTITY experts, as they selected from the
stock of plated and genuine silver goods
nothing but the standard articles. Hav-
ing secured sufficient booty they left
leaving behind them twenty auger-bitS

Indian Troubles,

Captain Mitchell, of the Fifth infantry,
arrived at ST. Louis, last week, from the
Indian country.
He furnishes an account of a recent at
tack on Bear Creek station forty miles
south of Fort Dodge. A band of thirty
five Indians came to the station, which
was guarded by Sergeant Murray and
four men OF the third infantry, who rep
resented themselves as Arrapahoes. AT
ter cooking and eating some time in a
friendly manner all but seven left
Those remaining then shot two of Muir
rays men and severely wounded the ser
geant himself, after which they fed
Sixty mules belonging to Mr.. Traing, a
trader of Camp Supply, were run off and
one herder was killed. Two or three
other men were also killed at different
places.

Singular Premonition of Death.

William Jones an old citizen and an
octogenarian, Of Sumner county, Tenn,
died near Sandersville short time since
with singularly accurate premonitions of
the approaching event. He was at the
church at that place on the Sunday be-
fore his death, and in unusual good
health. On his return home he remar-
ked to his wife that as soon as his son
John returned from Robertson county
where he was on visit-that he wan
ted his grave-clothes sent for as he would
soon die. Mrs. Jones asked him why he
thought so; that he was looking well, &c.,
but he adhered to his predictions that he
would soon die.
His son returned on Monday, and he
repeated his directions as to his grave
clothes, with the additional instruction
to go up into the lot and he would find
some stones that he had gotten up setting
against certain tree, and that he wanted
them put at the head and foot of his
grave. They were found as he stated
one of them Of sufficient weight to try
the strength of the stoutest man. He
was taken i'll the same day, and DR..
James Franklin, skillful physician, was
sent for. He was administered to, but
died the following Thursday, and was
buried on Friday. Among the members
of his family at the funeral was a daugh-
ter, a Mrs. Campbell wild W, about fifty
years Of age. She stated to a sister, after
the interment, that she would be the
next one buried there. Her sister re-
piled that no one could foretell when death
would come. She replied Yes" that
"she knew very well that she was to die
soon" and, sure enough, in few days
she was laid by the side of her father.

Murder and Snieide.

A terrible murder was committed in
Philadelphia on Tuesday evening last
The victim was young woman living as
servant with Mr. Ii. Holloway in South
9th street. The murderer had paid at
tention to the girl for several years, and
was rather dissolute character, and had
been forbidden the house by Mr.. II. On
the evening mentioned, the family were
absent, and Stratton the murderer enter
ed the room where the girl was sitting,
and shot her through the heart, producing
instant death. He then shot himself
through the temple, living only a few
minutes after the arrival of Mr. Hollo-
way, who came in just as he heard the
explosion of the pistol The cause of the
murder is unknown, but it is supposed to
have been instigated by jealousy.

ACuban Priyateer.

The English Board Of Admiralty are
greatly excited over the clearance of the
steamer "Chieftain" under extremely
suspicious circumstances. Her papers
were in excellent shape, but her unusu-
ally heavy armament excited suspicion,
which was somewhat allaycd when the
commander explained that he feared con-
tact with Japanese pirates. 1t has since
been ascertained that she has flung to the
breeze the flag of the Cuban insurgents,
and was on her way to Cuba. The
British Consul at Havana has been telc-
graphed, and measures will be taken to
prevent Spanish commerce from being
pillaged.

The increase of emigration this year
ever the past two years, is quite marked
Already, the arrivals at New York in
1870, have exceeded the arrivals of the
whole of last year. One gratifying feature
of this seasons emigration is the large
proportion who at once push for the West
and South, to engage in agricultural pur-
suits, thus preparing to add to the wealth
as well as the population of the country

Fearful Accident.

On the Sth inst, on the Vermont R..
r. terrible accident occurred. The
night train from Boston ran into a cul-
vert and wrecked the train about two
miles from Summit station. An engine
with car attached was sent from the
latter place to render assistance, and after
taking on board the passengers and train
men started for Rutland. About one
mile north of Summit the relief train ran
into another culvert, the passenger car
going down with the engine.
The result was three men were killed
and twelve men badly wounded.

THE Coal strikes have brought the re-

THE Coal strikes have brought the re-
suit many expected. That is an attempt
which bids fair to be successful, to put
foreign coal on the free list. Should this
action be finally taken, and our coal op-
orators have to compete with cheap for
eign labor, they will have only them
selves to thank for it. For several years
the people have been at the mercy of
these greedy coal operators, and compelled
to pay the fiddler,while the miners danced.
If this effort should fail, the coal dealers
can, we trust, learn wisdom enough to, in
future conduct their business in such a
manner, that there will be no further in
ducement for placing this article on the
free list.

CONSIDERABLY rfoting took place du-
ring the election for Mayor at Washing
ton, d. G., last week. The police, how
ever, succeeded in quelling it before any
serious results had occurred. The regu-

beaten by Emery, the Reform candidate,
upon whom the Democrats and disaffect-
ed Republicans united.

SEVERAL elections that have recently
taken place, have resulted disastrously to
the regular party candidates. At the
election in Hartford last week, the regu-
lar Republican candidate was beaten by
the citizens ticket. In Washington, d.
g., at the election of last week. the re-
suit was the same. These things go to
show that the people are gradually cut
ting loose from party ties, and claiming
the right which free people ought to en-
icy-the privilege of voting as their
judgment may dictate. From these re-
suits the party leaders ought to learn that
it is necessary to pay more regard to the
wishes of the people, in the selection of
their candidates, and that failing to do
this, the people will no longer blindly
vote the Irregular ticket"
If these defeats should secure the Sc
lection of better candidates and the cleo
tiOn of better men, it would be result
most gratifying to good men of both
parties.
