was captured on the 18th BY the
French, but escaped.
Metz is completely surrounded by
the Prusaian forces, the 4th Army
Corps having moved round from the
east to the north. ~. ...,
The Saxon corps of pioneers have

MISCELLANEOUS.
The Paris journals comment bitterly
upon the attitude of Austria, which is
neutral in the present struggle, when
with barely 100000 troops she might
avenge Sadowa.
A Paris paper publishes a list Of
eleven German vessels captured since
the commencement of the war.
Deep displeasure is felt in Lond IN
at the retreat Of the Queen to Balmoral
at this crisis, and some persons favor a
regency with the Prince of Wales at
the head $50 J
A London dispatch of the 18th says
the Prussians have at least 100000
men advancing on French soil, and as
many more ia reserve in Germany, and
that the idea Of peace before the &C.
cupation of Paris is laughed at.
A treaty Of peace was proposed to
King William and Bismarck. The
King replied eff France wants peace,
she must ask for an armistice in the usu-
al way, or the arbitrament Of war must
| decide between the two nations"
1t is said Prussia will exact no sur
render o. French soil but will insist up-
on the exclusion Of the Bonaparte fami.
ly from the throne.
A London dispatch Of the 10Th, gives
the Pope's letter of July 22d, to King
William, in which he mediates for
peace. The King replied that neither
he nor his people desired war, and that
he is ready to lay down arms the mo.
ment that Napoleon, who SO unexpect.
eddy declared war, should give asur.
