The First Battle.

The first meeting Of the conten-
ding armies of France and Prussia,
that is Of sufficient Importance to
be called o battle, occurred last
Thursday, at Weisburg, a fortified
town in France near the limo between
the two nations. The Prussian
were the attacking party and made
an assault upon the Fortress with
the 5th and 1lth Prussiah
and End Bavarian corps, and
carried it in fine style, though not
without hard fighting and much
loss upon both sides. The French
General, Donay was killed, and 500
Turcos Prussians captured. This is
bold and telling stroke for King
William, and indicates that he is
bound, if possible, to carry TIC a;,r
into France, and it would not surprise
US if it should turn out, that French
soil will drink more OF the blood OF
this war. than that of tho German
States.
The Eagles Of France better look
well to their laurels. Napoleon will
need all his good luck, to keep intact
his own dominions, as they now stand
before this war closes, or we are nc
prophet. Soldiers whose intollects
are becloudod with ignorance and su.
pcrstition, while they have all tho
impetuosity and enthusiasm SO pecu
liar to the French, have also nothing
to fall back upon in case OF reversal
While the sky is bright and victory
is on their side they become sc
inspired Us il were, with the opinion
that they arc right and invincible
that they night with the creates
ardor and bravery, but let defeat fal
UPON them and continue for two o,
three contests, and their superstitious
minds are seized with fear, and the )
erumble and melt away easily before
their adyarsaries. Not so with the
enlightened German, he reads, ht
thinks, he reasons from cause Il
effect and takes y comprehensive
and general, survey OF the whole
field, and no disaster, though of,
repeated, dampons his ardor or chills
his patriotic heart.

from the pen Of Capt. Edwards, State

on Tuesday, July 26th. The goodly
people of that growing and wide
awake young Iowa city, spared
neither expcnse nor labor in extend
ing to their visitors a fitting well

at the depot on the arrival oftrains,
and assigned visitors to tho care Of
citizens who had kindly volunteered
TO entertain them. In this way all
were Cal ed for ; and so perfect were
all arrangements that no murmur ol
complaint found utteranco. Tuesday
night u banquet was given at Tay

been no discredit to any city. The
supper was gotten up by the inimita

Ottamwa is . fine town of about
1000 inhabitants. aud with present
railroad facilities, is destined to

and has been built up by tho efforts
Of Rev. John Kreckel, who has labor
ed at Ottumwa for seventeen years
with great success. \ private COM
pany has q new iron bridge over the
Des Moines, well under wav, and
when completed it will be OF much
real importance to tho mercantile cit
izens Of Ottumwa. Till now, large

which would naturally find Ottumwa
its market, has been cut Oft from COM
munication on account Of the rive.

and justice. Tho Des Moines river
Is low, and much valuable stone for
building and Matchmaking is being
taken out Of its bed. 1t is still navi-
gable for eel, but for no other craft.
These items | deem sufficient for OF,

for imperfections OF my dispatch Of
this morning. To Mr.. kipsoy Jor-
dan and his estimable lady, who so

Ottumwa & st. Paul Railroad.

AoA0ut5oJ ~u'y 80, ASsu.
Nh. DIxcN: Ifthere is going to be
. r. r. built from Ottumwa north
ward, think the route passing thro'
Marengo, Blairstown, vinton and In
dependence, win be most liborally
aided by tbecounty it passes through;
be cheaper to build and pay better
| when built, than any other that could
be selected. There is certainly q
good route naturally, from North
English River near the South Wes-
tern part Of this county to Independ-
enoe. How it may bo ffam English
River to Ottumwa / do not know,
but imagine a road could be bniIt
through it. Your preliminary sur
vey would give you some knowledge
of it, as / am told, it did not dlvergc
greatly from the course l have iudi-
Gated. If necessary, | think Iowa
county would build the road through
her territory fthat is grade it) and
donate to the company that will tic,
bridge, iron, and run it.
We believe from what we think to
be good authority, that Benton and
Buchanan counties ,oouid d9th do the
! same.
We understand you find difficulty
in getting north from North English
River to the G. r. |. Il p. Il. r. on
the line run by you. We are conf
dent no such difficulty exists or the
route have spoken of bnt quite the
opposite. | am personally quite ia
miliar with the country, and would
take pleasure in giving any aid l
could to get the best aud most direct
route surveyed.
Cur people all feel doep interest
| in the matter, and will act literally
to secure the road, and feel tho i'm
portance of getting it under way be-
fore the roads through Grinnell on
the West, or Iowa City on the East,
now being pushed forward are CON-
pleted. As Chairman Of Commit
tee appointed to look after the mat
ter, i write to assure you OF our
anxiety to dc, whatever will iosure us
the road, if it is to be built. Wo
would be glad to hear from you and
know what the prospects of the roa 1
arc, and to cooperate in any way
| you wish that looks feasible to US.
Yours truly,

The Mitrailleuse.

This is the name OF a now French
weapon about which there is good
deal in the dispatches these days, and
which is reported to have dono won
ders in the affair OF Saarbrucken, in
which it is claimed the French rout-
ed the Prussians, captured Saarbruck-
en- and some three thousand prison
erB. g.6
It's understood to be Il revolving
smooth bored piece Of ordinance,
which is loaded from the breach into
q sort ola hopper, and, that when in
position, it sows fearful shower of
grape, canister, and all sorts of de-
struetiblc missiles continuously, or
as long as tho ammunition holds out,
to q great distance, and scattering
over in it's range large frontage.
II only takes two men to run it,
one at the brccch to pour in the bull
lots, and the other at tho side to di-
rect it's aim, and manage the machin-
cry, which rovolves and discharges
it.
A similar affair in ourMar proved
q failure, as we predict this will.
when thoy come to the tug Of war /;
nevertheless the exaggerated reports
ofits terrible efficiency as destruc-
two weapon, which will reach tho
Prussians camp, may havo the effect
to dcmoralize them very much, as
our gun boats did the Johnries, until
due familiarity with them substitu-
ted contempt in place Of fear.

wa:
"Our train entered this town over
the new bridge across the Des Moines,

In short walk over the town we
were surprised at the signs Of mate,

across tho Des Moines, several rows
of business houses, and the paving Of
the streets, are among these improve.
ments. There is no doubt but that
Ottumwa will be large city before
many years. Its progress has always
been sure, and no year passes by
without something being done to
advance its interests. 1t has never
claimed to bo more than it is hence
persons coming here to settle are not

good paper, and their industry j.
rewarded by ample patronage.
