Ar the Convention at Brownsville
on Wednesday it was formally an
nounced by W. J. Westbrook, ESQ,
that Judge VIM p. Bond had with
drawn from the canvass for Congress,
in consequence Of the fact that his
record had too much Of patriotism,
manhood, sympathy andsouI ia it to
bear Radical inspection. Not beingas
chill as an icicle and as soalless as a
fish, be was guilty Of charity, and gave
aid and comfort to his sufferng fellows
countrymen-strUggling for liberty. It
is his misfortune 10 be human, With
some of the qualities which the rebels
Of '7G were foolish enough to think
ennobHng ia their time, and hence
he cannot pass muster IN Washington.
We doubt whether any but the crop
cared sort can do that, anyhow.

WAR GOSSIP.

PRINCE LEOPOLD'S CANDIDATUREl
The Washington correspondent
the Boston Post givesthe following
the contents of the dispatch recent
received at the State Department, al
which has been previously noticed
US: The State Department has a lo1
dispatch from Minister Bancroft,
lating principally to the action of
King of Prussia in the matter of tn
offer of the Spanish crown to Prince
Leopold. Mr.. Bancroft says that as
soon as the nature of the proposition
from Spain became known to King
William, he exerted all his influence
to- induce the Prince to decline il
promptly, telling him that in tht
present condition of the various fac.
tons IN Spain, he could not expect tC
ascend the throne in quiet, and that
he would certainly meet the same fate
as Macmillan, and lose hiss head.
The Prince, however, declined to ac-
.cept this advice, and gave the King
to understand that he should accept.
Thereupon the King called his cOun.
Gil together, and submitted the case to
them at length, and then requested
du OpALllOn MuGlLCts uLiuSI GlS
N0rth German Constitution, he had
sufficient authority to peremptorily
forbid Prince Leopold from accepting.
The council finally decided that the
King could not exercise such authori-
ty; that Germany was 80 tar republic
can that nothing in its constitution
forbade its citizens from emigratiag TO
other States, and accepting office there.
After the King had thus actively ex-
erted himself in the interest of peace,
he became convinced that Napoleon
was simply using the question as a
preteXt, and that he was determined
to force a war. The King abandoned
bis efforts and turned his attention to
military preparations. Mr.. Bancroft
feels certain that King William has
had no thought at any time of inter-
fering in the affairs of Spain, either by
securing the throne for a German
prince or by attempting in any other
way to control matters in that King
dom. Our Minister indicates his
strong belief that the war has been
forced on Prussia without the least
preparation on the part of its sover-
eign.

b FRENCH ARMTEs.

Some of the dispatches speak of
Marshal Bazaine's army as the Army
Of the Rhine. This is a mistake. He
commands what is known as the
Army of the MOselle, while Marshal
Mcmahon commands that of the
Rhine. For the purpose of enabling
the reader to clearly understand the
several commands we give the follow
ing statement of their corps and COM
manders:

From the Paris Monde, August 81
In Prussia the authorities have ac-
cepted al the offers of material aid
made by the Catholic Orders. The
greater part of the Jesaitsl estab-
1ishments, among others those of
Laach and Munster, the Franciscans,
the Redemptionists and Lazarists are
fitting up hospitals in their houses. A
large number of fathers of those Or
defs and many of the ordinary clergy
have already left for the army. On
the 18th of July Prince Frederick
Charles and General de Eteinmetz
passed through Cologne with several
officers and Catholic ecclesiastics, on
their way to the camp. Among the
priests were Prince Edmund Radzi-
will, who will attend especially to the
Polish soldiers, with whose language
he is perfectly acquainted. The
knights Hospitallers ere displaying
