PROGRESS OF THE WAR. ,o
CONTINUANCE OF TIE REPUBLIC. N

CONTINUANCE OF THE REPUBLIC. Fl 4
The birth of the French Republic fol-
lowed SO closely upon Napoleon being ia
ken prisoner and the capitulation of Me-
Mahon's army at the battle of Sedan that
the latter was, to some extent, lost sight
of, for the time being. And even now,
we have but imperfect accounts of it.
The surrender of Napoleon and an army
of 100000, after a battle of some days
continuance, may indicate, to some ex-
tent, the loss to the French, if not to the
Prussians. Bazaine and Metz were moi
included in the surrender, but according
to some reports, Bazalne has recently sur.
rendered and Metz is in the possession Of
the Prussians. Strasburg still holds cut
but it is thought it will soon have to sur.
render. The French blockading fleet in
the Baltic is about being withdrawn.
The Republic still continues and is
anxious for peace. Reports have said
that the Republic has proposed as the
basis of peace that the King shall with
draw his army from France, and that
France shall disarm. It has also been re-
ported that King William declines to ne
gotiate with any one or at any place, but
Napoleon at the Tuilliries. A later re-
port, Sep. 18th, says that William says it
will be time to receive propositions of
peace when the Prussian army has arriv-
ed before Paris that he is still anxious
for such peace as will give safety for the
future, and that he will make formal
demand on Paris, and be ready to receive
propositions Of the authorities.
The Prussian army is now marching on
Paris and is within twenty-five miles
the advance or scouts being within five
miles. By Friday to-morrow-the main
army may be before Paris ese @
ThesRepublic is making every prepar-
alton possible for defence. Tro-
chu, report says, still declares Paris safe.
He is perhaps the ablestsoldier of France
and is the Commander He is thought
to be honest and reliable though be.
lieved to be in favor of Orleans.
The fall of Napoleon and Che establish
ment of the Republic has essentially
changed the relations Of Prussia and
France. Under the Empire and Napo-
leon the sympathies and moral support
of the lovers of freedom were with Prus-
STA. Now they are equally with France,
and chiefly with the Republic, Their
every feeling and aspiration is for the
success ofthe Republic Their sympa-
thies and moral support extend also to
The freedom loving Germans. And
should the question arise in Germany be-
tween Empire and Despotism on the one
hand and a Republic and Freedom on the
other, their every feeling and aspiration
will. be in, favor Of the Republic and
Freedom.

ENTERPRIsING JOURNALISM.

lantic Gable dispatch containing a full
account of the great battle of 'Gravelotte
sent to the New York Tribune and pub
lished i'll the paper on the gath ult., is
probably the longest and most costly dis
patch ever sent over the transcontinental
wires. It costs the Tribune $4,000 in
gold. AS a specimen of enterprising
journalism this IS absolutely unprecedent-
ed, but it may be surpassed ere the war
closes The slow moving dailies of Lon
dongand other foreign cities will stand
wide-moathed with. establishment at the
absolute disregard of expense shown by
their American cotemporaries in obtaining
news VS.. doubtwhether any of them
ever paidsas much for news in week as
the Tribune paid for the single dispatch.

Special Correspondent of THE TINES.
HARRIsBURG. April Sth, 1870

Mr.. Editor-We have all been taught
from early infancy, and are daily reminded
by passing incidents, that all things earthly
must sooner or later end and thus with the
session of the Legislature and my CORE
spondence to THE Times. Whatever good
the body here assembled during the past
few months in the name Of the people, may
have done. let them have credit for. What
wrong they did, let us cover with the man-
tie of charity. Both Houses have pretty
well cleared their desks. Among the many
things done by the House, in the closing up
was the passage of resolution to distrib-
ute the Bates Histories. The Appropria-
ton Bill was vetoed by the Governor. His
objections were that the charitable institu-
tions which receive gratuities from the State
Treasury were not compelled to render any
account as to how the money was appropri-
atcd by them. The objections were sus-
tained by both Houses, and an additional
section appended to the bill requiring all
such institutions to account quarterly to the
Auditor General of the State. In the Sen
ate all the nominations sent i'll by the Gov
cTmor were unanimously " confirmed, except
that of Col. George Mcfarland as Supcrin-
tendent Of Soldiers Orphans Schools, which
was defeated by vote of nineteen to elcv-
en-. Some very sharp words passed between
several of the Senators. Lowry made a
powerful appeal for the Colonel, in which
he called the attention of the body to the
fact that the colonel had lost q leg
at the battle of Gettysburg and that his
other is almost useless The Governor sent
i'll message on the last day Of the session
vetoing the Jersey Shore, Pine Creek and
Buffalo Railway Bill. The friends of this
measure were very much discOmtitted at
| this boldness of the executive, and few
took occasion to call him some hard names.
But the people who are sovereign and were
most interested in this matter will hail him
as Their benefactor. The poor and over
burthened laborers, mechanics and farmers
all over the wide domain Of this great com
monwealth will acknowledge him as the
protector of their sacred rights and words
of praise will be spoken of him at every fire
side even when those who now figure upon
the stage as prominent actors are forgotten
The veto will speak for itself. 1t is unan-
swerabe. regret that the bill removing
stocll-yard to your county was defeated il
the Senate, Notwithstanding your senator's
efforts to get it through. In conclusion
will say that your senators and representa-
tives all deserve praise for closely watching
the interests of their constituents.

Condensed History Of Steam.

About two hundred and eighty years
3. c., Hero, Of Alexandria, formed toy
which exhibited some Of the powers Of
steam, and was moved by its power.
A. d., $50, Anthemius' an architect
arranged several cadrons Of water, each
covered with the wide bottom Of a leather
tube, which rose to narrow top, with
pipes extended to the raftcrs Of the adj
joining building. A fire was kindled be-
meath the caldrons, and the house was
shaken by the efforts Of the steam asccn-
ding the tubes This is the first notice Of
the power Of steam recorded
In 1913, June 18th, Blasco D. Garoy
tried a steamboat Of two hundred and
nine tons with tolerable success, at Bar
celona, Spain. 1t consisted of Il caldron
Of boiling water, and movable wheel on
each side Of the ship. 1t was laid aside
as impracticable. A present, however,
was made to Garoy.
In 1850, the first railroad was construc-
ted at New Castle on Tyne.
The first idea Of Il steam engine in Eng
land was in the Marquis Of Winchestors
History of Inventions" A. d 1868.
In 17l0, Newcomer made the first
steam engine i'll England
In 17I8, patents were granted to Sa-
worry for the first application Of the steam
engine.
In 1876, Jonathan Hulls set forth the
idea Of steam navigation.
In 1854, James Watt made the frs
perfect steam engine in England.
In 1778, Thomas Paine first proposed
this application in America.
In 1888, two Americans published
work on it.
In 1889, VIM. Tymington made
voyage in one on the Fourth and Clyd
Canal,
In 1902, this experiment was repeated
In 1882, Ramsey propelled Il boat b.
steam to New York.
In 1888, John Fitch, of Philadelphia
navigated Il boat by ii steam engine o.
the Delaware
In 1893, Robert Nelson first began t
apply his attention to steam.

The State Legislature has adjourned.
The proceedings at the last were of the
most reckless character, bills being rush
ed through in such manner that hardly
any one knew what they were voting for.
The following is given as the entire
process by which hundreds of bills were
transformed into laws in the respective
Houses:
Clerk (eading the title)-"A A supplement
to the act incorporating the city Of Phila-
delphia."
Speaker" There being no objections
to this bill it will be laid aside for second
reading.
Clerk-"A supplement to the act in
cooperating the city Of Philadelphia"
Speaker Will the House agree to the
bill ?''
Voices anywhere -" AYE, aye'
Speaker" Will the House transcribe
the bill, suspend the rule, and read the bill
third time by it's title ?'-Voices, AYE
aye p
Speaker" The bill passes"
With bills passed in such a manner, it
is not surprising that many were pushed
through that would hardly bear inspec-
ton, and had it not been for the use of
the veto power, the State would have suf-
fered still worse
Among the yetoes, is one objecting to
the passage Of the Jersey Shore and Pine
Creek r. R., on the ground that it is not
only inexpedient, but unconstitutional

Gs5D An elderly gentleman OF unim-
peached veracity, though by the way
somewhat addicted to story telling, relates
the following:
During the early days Of this town,
before carts came into vogue, he was ac-
customed to haul his wood by the aid of
an old black mare he kept in his service.
Now the old mares harness consisted of
Il breast plate and traces, made Of the un-
tanned hide Of an OK. At the close Of a
rainy day, he went to his wood lot, for
the purpose Of procuring log Of wood.
After having cut log which he judged
might be sharp load for his beast, he
fastened her to one end, with her head
homeward, and gave her the rein. The
old mare continued her course until she
arrived at the door, when, to his surprise
he discovered that owing to the cXtensi-
bilty of the traces, they had stretched
tlH whole distance without breaking OF
removing the load an inch. Throwing
down his axe he went to the beast, and
removing the harness from her, threw the
breast plate over post that stood neal
the door, and went to bed. Upon rising
the next morning he found that the heal
Of the morning sun had so operated upoI
the contractability Of the traces as tc
bring the wood up to the door ready fol
hewing and splitting.

A Strange Case.

In Philadelphia on Friday last . little
girl named Cessna was before the Mayor
She had been taken in charge by Lieu
tenant Kelly, at Manayunk. There was
every reason to believe that the child was
not here under proper circumstances,
and that she had been abducted from her
home elsewhere. An investigation was
made, and the facts were reported to the
Mayor, who ordered the child brought
before him. She is beautiful little girl
aged ten years, and seems to have been
educated beyond children generally of
that age She is well clad, has her own
trunk, abundance of good clothing, with
various little trinkets is in possession of
photographs Of her deceased mother and
two brothers, the latter younger than she.
Her father is said to be an eminent ply
sician in Mississippi, and now has a
second wife. The Developments SO far
would seem to indicate that the child
dressed in boys Clothes was taken from
her home at midnight by an uncle, both
riding on horseback about ten or twelve
miles to station, and thence proceeded
by cars to the Mississippi river, and by
steamer to New Orleans.
