Ostend, Sept. 3O.-Intense excite
ment was caused here this evening by
the arrival of a special messenger from
Vallenciennes, bringing news of an
tother sgeat battle fought on the Seine
on the 9th, which resulted in the com
plete defeataefthe Grown Prince of
Prussia under the guns of Fort Mont
Yalerien. The victory was followed
by the evacuation of Versailles, and a
rupture Of the German line of invest
ment, the Crown Prince retreating
rapidly northward upon the army of
the King at Meaux and Scissors.
Official kilograms from Berlin by
way of Brussels, contradict this news,
but it is certain that the communica-
tions between Paris, Rouen, Athens
and Vallenciennes have been partially
reopened and that official proclamation
of the victory of Tuesday, signed by
Gambetta have been received in the
latter city. !.
A special dispatch from Boulogne
gives the following description Of the
frightful defeat of the German forces
on the southwest of Paris by the army
of Generals Ducrot and Mandon, on
the 9th. The French were heavily
reinforced on Monday by General Tro-
chu, and advanced upon the German
positions at Montreuil and Versailles.
Early Tuesday morning the battle be-
| gan at Viroioy and Valley, the Ger
mans contesting the French advance
with desperate energy until they were

THE INCOME TAx.-After an
enormous amount of debate, the
House last Friday voted to con-
tinue the income tax indefinitely,
but to reduce the rate to three per
cent, and increase the exemp
ton to two thousand dollars.
This is the result of the vexed
question which has, for q long
time, seemed most probable. II
indicates q partial relief from this
unjust and oppressive tax, and in
so far, is good. But Congress
promised that the impOst should
cease altogether with the year
1869, and as the people have un-
mlstakably pronounced against
It's revival in any form, even this
improvement will not answer in
place Of the total and uncondi.
tiOnal abolition of the tax. Al
Mr.. Kelley, Of Philadelphia, rep
resenting a very wealthy constitu
ency, said in debate, the inquisi
torial features of the tax are it
worst concOmitants. 1t involves
an unwarrantable interference witt
the private affairs Of every man
Not less strong is the objection
that 1t is q direct tax upon honesty
for rogues can evade its payment
readily. 1t fails to produce one
half what it would if the returns
were conscientiously made, and
those who go free are the mer
whose moral rectitude is affected
by the question Of dollars anG
cents. The only true way is, Il
reform it altogether, and rid thC
country Of an army Of spies thai
peer into the business Of ever
man, backed by the Government

BABIES LEos.-Bow-legs and

mon deformites Of humanity; and
wise mothers in either case arises
from the afflicted one having been
put upon his or her feet too early
In babyhOod. But q Manchester
physician, DR.. Crompton, who has
watched for the true cause, thinks
differently. He attributes the first
mentioned distortion to a habit
some youngsters delight in, Of
rubbing Ithe sole Of one foot
against that of the other; some
will 90 to sleep with the soles
pressed together. They appear
to enjoy the contact only when
the feet are naked; they don't at
tempt to make it when they are
soCked or slippered. So the rem
edy is obvious; keep the baby's
soles covered. Knock knees the
doctor ascribes to q different child
ish habit, that Of sleeping on the
side, with one knee tucked into
the hollow behind the other
He has found that where one leg
had been bowed in more than the
other, the patient has always slept
ON one side, and the uppermost
member has been that most de-
formed. Here the preventive is to
pad the insides Of the knees so as
to keep them apart, and let the
limbs grow freely their own way.
All Of which is commended 10
mothers who desire the physical
uprightness Of their progeny.

TEE aACK AssR RAELaSAB.
Whilst all the other Railroads
Of the State are involved n serious
and perplexing litigation, one ct
least is quietly persuing II design
with undisturbed peace, security
and energy We allude 70 tie
New Orleans, Baton ROage, and
Vickshurg Railroad, Eamillarlyand
expressively known as the Back
Bone Railroad. sg
This Company h.s achieved
several brilliant negotiations,
which must put IL on q strong
basis. Having already q grant Of
S12,500 per mile from the State
on second mortgage, It has effect
ed q loan Of $12,500 on d first
mortgage-the total Of said loan
reaching the large sum Of %, ,OOO,-
900. This will furnish an abund-
ant fund, to build not only the
main trunk but the several
branches oftheir road which make
up the grand plan.
The company has purchased
from w. s. Pike, for $500, 600, the
charter and property Of the Baton
Rouge and Crosse Tete road,
which, starting on the west bank
Of the Mississippi, opposite to
Baton Rouge, runs some thirty
miles along the ridge Of an OK.
ceedingly rich alluvial country TO
the Atchafalaya. Here II strikes
the line Of the route known as
Judge BOyce's line, the Charter
and rights to which have been
purchased from Judge BoyCe by
the Back Bone Company.
With these connections, ell 20 be
prosecuted under the liberal grant
Of the Legislature, this road
promises to be one Of the most
successful and best endowed in
the South. The country through
which 1t 10 to run, on both sides
Of the river, IL one Of the richest
and most productive In the South
and its need and demand Oi
railroad facilities have been
very urgent. Doubtless when
the two branches, that north
eastward to Vicksburg, and thai
northwestward to Alexandra
and Shreveport are completed, l
will render our whilome Stat
capital, outrageous Baton Rouge
quite . thriving place: 50 thriv
! ing, however, that its population
; will not be content with the round
about course by Pontchatoula Il

road will be . great Godaend y

. and rural villages, either on III
coast or on the highlands at BatO
