The news from France is conflicting. 1t
seems that the French have concen trated at
Metz and still hold Strasbourg, although the
Prussian Army is between that place and
Metz The details of the late battles indi-
cate that they were very holly ed and
that the losses Oh both sides was greater
than has as yet been report ed. The Paris
Steele says the Prussians have $50, 900
troops at Rastadt and Cologne and $50, 900
in Lorraine. The French are sending large
bodies Of recruits to the front. The rep ort
that the Prince Imperial was in London is
contradieted. The bad Gencralship of Ma
poleon is severel y commented upon. He
proclaims that he will return to Paris ''yic-
torious or dead" This indicates that the
ssveresi battles are still to be fought.
On Sunday last, considerable engage
ment took place near Metz The reports of
it are conflicting, and indefinite Both par
ties claim the victory The following arc
the dispatches of Napoleon and King Will
liam:
"LongyeyiHe, August IA. 10 o'clock P.
M.-The army commenced to cross to the
left bank of the Moselle this morning. Our
advance guard had no knowledge of the
presence Of any force Of the enemy. When
half Of our army had crossed over, the Prus-
SLAMS suddenly attacked in great force
After a fight of four hours they wore repuls-
ed with great loss to them"
"NApoLloN."
BERLIN, August 15.--The Queen Of
Prussia to-day received the following dis
patch, dated in the vicinity ofMetz, Sunday
evening;
ga victorious combat occurred near Metz
to-day, tho troops of the first and seventh
corpse participating. I hasten to the scene
OF conflict. civilian"
La this engagement the Prussians were
commanded by Gen. Steinmetz. 1t was
brought on by an effort of the Prussians to
throw their forces between tie French and
their supplies, and with the view also of pre
venting their crossing the river Moselle and
taking up strong position. The French
We're taken at great disadvantage, and, as
acknowledged by the Emperor, we're wholly
surprised. They, however, made gallant
fight. Marshal Bazaine, the French com,
mander-in-chief, was present. The French
official dispatches claim. after four hours
fighting. that the Prussians were repulsed.
The French report from Verdun, on the
10th, inst, says that a great battle was fought
oetwe'n that place and Metz Ion Monday, the
18th, in which the Prussians lost 40, 900
men and were completely defeated and were
rctreating to the South. This dispatch had
not been confirmed by official reports, and j,
was on that account. given to the people
under reserye.
