JOURNALISM AT THE CAPITAL. Tho Washington correspondents are a power. They are yearly becoming more so, as their op portunities for. usefulness increase with the emancipation of the press and leading journals from the mean and trammeling influences of party. Very few persons not connected with journalism have any adequate idea of the num ber and ability of those who are known as Wash- ington correspondents, nor of the means used and expenses incurred by the leading newspa pers of thoeountry in obtaining ihe columns of “special dispatches” daily laid before their readem from this point. I doubt if the best informed “Pressmen” away from here, or a ma jority oven of those who aro employed during the whole or part of the year at the Capital, have any real idea of the number of journals who are regularly represented. Only a portion of those who writo “letters -1 with more or less reputation are named in Major Ben Perley Poore’s Congressional Dicretory, for tho list he publishes includes only those who havo seats or standing room in the Reporter’s Gallery in either branch of Congress. TOBTY-FIVE CORRESPONDENTS, preference to that valuable publication shows a list of ninety-nino papers represented, of which sixty-eight are dailies. The latter em braces all the leading journals of the United States, and at least one of Great Britain—tho London Telegraph. Of the dailies, forty re ceive special reports by telegraph from the pens of reporters and correspondents employed for that purpose. There aro forty-five persons named in the raportorial lists who may be set down as professional journalists. Of these, sev en belong to he reportorial staff of tho Con gressional Globe, which includes several of the most accomplished phonographers in the United States. These are men of extended literary knowledge and wide journalistic experience, and most of them do more or less work as cor respondents and editorial writers. The Asso ciated Press has three reporters employed here, the Southern Associated Pres3 one, that of Bal timore one, and the American Press Association two. “Father” Gobright, as he is affectionate ly termed, has seen a third of a century of Cap- Italian life and experience, and has given us some of his reminiscenses in a very interesting' $ volume, which might havo been made more so, if the habit of impartial statement and conden sation bad not become second natnre. The New York monopoly may be congratulated on having so experienced and genial a chief here. In the forty.five regulars there must be counted three accomplished ladies—Mrs. Lippincott, Grace Greenwood, or G. G., of the Tribune, Mrs. Briggs, “Olivia,” of the Philadelphia Press, and Miss Snead, the brilliant “Miss Grundy," of the New York World, TELEGRAPHIC CORRESPONDENTS. galleries or newspapers offer a “nobby” right when Spring fashions come in, and the deni, zens thereof come forth arrayed in all their glory, headed by the young chief of the Tri bune bureau. Washington work is almost a necessary part of the training of a profes sional journalist, and as responsibilities in crease. it affords a considerable specialty, re quiring for complete success a large knowledge of men and affairs at home and abroad. YOLLXIV—NO. 8> THE EMPBESS EUGENIE. There are eighteen correspondents who regu larly use the telegraph for the transmission of thqir matter. There are some few reporters who work for and are paid by these “specials” to get news. They are termed in the argot of the Row “gU'—rillas,” and their occupation is usually termed “skirmishing.” I think the terms are the results of war, for nearly every man of the press hereabout was a soldier in one or the other armieB, most of them serving m the Union ranks. There are about half a dozen gentlemen who are widely knowasletter-witers, and their communications usually assume asemi- editorial character. Only two of these, J. B. McCullogh, the able young editor of the Cin cinnati Enquirer, and Jerome B. Stillson, of the World, usually resort to the “wires” when here for the transmission of their matter. These pa pers, however, are regularly supplied by Geo. W. Adams, who is in rapid training for the Dean of the Correspondential Corps. Father Gobright holds that post of honor now. Maj. Poore is next in succession, and “Shad” Adams comes in for his reversion. NOTED WRITERS. The eighteen special correspondents referred to, send dispatches to some forty newspapers. Most of the special news sent by telegraph is famished to combinations—as, for instance, the Western Republican Press, whose corres pondents are General H. V. Boynton, of the Cincinnati gazettes, and Sidney Andrews, “Di- orij” of tbe Boston Advertiser, comprises tho Pittsburg Commercial, Cincinnati Gazette, Chi cago Tribune, and Sc. Louis Democrat. Mr. Andrews furnishes the specials to the Boston Advertiser, as well as- contributes regularly some of the ablest letters of criticism, analysis, and statement relating to public affairs which leave this city. General Boynton is also tbe special correspondent of the Gazette, and his letters have acquired a wide and just renown from bc-iDg m.'uio the vehicle of the most fear less expose of the land jobbery with which Con gress is too much afflicted. A Democratic com bination is run by George W. Adams, and em braces tho Chicago Times, St. Louis Republican and Cincinnati Enquirer. Besides these, Mr. Adams is tho special reporter of the World and Boston Herald, as well one of the proprietors of the Washington Star, one of thelivliestof even ing journals. A Southern combination is run by G. A.' Pillsbtiry,' and consists of the Balti more Gazette, Macon (Ga.) Telegram, New Orleans Times and Savannati News. The poli tics of these dispatches are “red-hot^” quite as much as the “blowing” I suggested at the be ginning Pluto’s queen was raising' now a-days. One of the veteran reporters, bearing a name repatei to be known in the “lobby,” that mys tical “coign of vautago” from which corpora tions and speculation work so ardons, lias a combination consisting of tho Boston Tran script, Cincinnati Chronicle, Chicago Journal, New York Commercial and Toledo Blade. Still another, and one of the very best as far as news is concerned, is conducted by W. W. Worden, formerly of the New York Times, nnd -one of Andrew Johnson’s secretaries. His pa pers are tho Baltimore American, Boston Post, and Philadelphia Day. There are other com binations not given in the lists, run by journal- Tlie Princess Was a, Napoleon’s First Be- trotiled—The Austrian’s Emperor’s Be- signs—Tbe Wiles of a Beautiful Adven turess-Course of a Great Wfe Changed. From the Slants Zeitung. | Had not the original plana of Napoleon in re gard to his marriage been frustrated by the Aus trian Court, his life might have taken a very different course, and there might now be no ne cessity of his despairingly bewailing the fact that through foreign counsels he has allowed himself to be ruined. He wished to marry his cousin, the Princess Wasa, grand-daughter of the Grand Duchess Stephanie of Baden, and had already offered her his hand on the occasion of a visit to Baden-Baden. His suit was ac cepted, but with the condition that Prince Wasa, the father of tho Princess, who lived in Vienna apart from his wife, should give his consent. Napoleon thereupon turned to the Emperor of Aastria with the request that he should under take the wooing of the bride from Prince Wasa, but he received an answer to the effect that this was not permitted by the laws of etiquette, in asmuch as the Prince was only a Colonel in the Austrian army. - This, however, was merely an excuse, since Franz Joseph was determined to prevent the proposed match at any price. He therefore contrived to influenoe Prince Wasa to positively refuse his consent; and, while Napoleon still hoped on, a match between the Crown Prince of Saxony and the Princess was quickly brought about by the intrigues of the Austrian court. Napoleon was deeply moved and exaspeated at this, and upon first learning that this, his dar ling project, had been frustrated, he gave ut terance to the memorable words, “Les souve- rains de l’Europe se souviendront do moL” (The princes of Europe shall have cause to think of mo.) It is true that at a later day the Emperor of Austria had only too much cause for regretting the share which he had taken in ibis affair; but for Napoleon, the result was -much worse from having perhaps the only real heartfelt desire'he ever experienced repressed in this rude way. Even though the woman whom he had desired to make Empress of the French had, by no means distinguished herself for eminent quali- t es, yet her modest, bashful, almost dependent nature would have been a guarantee that she would never have endeavored to overstep the limits cf her duties, never would have labored to secure a government which would have made of the highest interests of France a plaything for her humors and her selfishness. But this was the result of the second choice, which Napoleon then hit upon. Among the many adventurers of rank who happened to be in Paris at the time of Napoleon’s great politi cal strategem, there was a certain Countess Montijo and her daughter, who had created a sensation anddrawn tne attention of Napoleon toward themselves by their extravagant style of liviDg, as well as by the beauty of the daughter. Napoleon had drawn these women, to bis new court, and had indulged in every kind of gallantry toward the daughter, who, however, had quickly given him to understand- -sat, despite her ooquetry, she was just as care ful of her honor as he was of his, and would' yield in no way to his passions unless he allow ed her the legitimate place at his side. ---; e>Ti ■ When now the proposed match with the Prin cess Wasa tamed out a failure, Eugenie con trived to procure an invitation to Compiegne, and there, in the freer intercourse with Napo leon, and with the aid of a brilliant toilette, .in which violet-wreaths amid her blonde hair: bad an especially strong effect, she succeeded, through the magic of her personal appearance and her splendid conversational powe.rs,-ini so alluring him that be, still sensitive over the re sult of his former plans, and with the firm de termination of meeting the crowned princes of Europe as a parvenu, suddenly offered'her his hand, and to the universal astonishment not alone of France, but of all Europe, raised totbe position of Empress a woman of doubtfnl de scent and of an equally doubtful past. Since then this woman has shared his throne with him for eighteen years, and has apparent ly, it is true, contributed very much to its splendor; but if Napoleon now looks back over this period, and calls himself to account for the influences which since then have been brought to bear upon him from the side of his wife, and by means of her have been made effective, ho cun scarcely do otherwise than curse the hour which he entered into this alliance. CLIPPINGS FROM LATE NORTH ERN DISPATCHES. . Bsulne on the Point of Capitulation. London, August 26.—Aspeoial correspondent at Bar le Due writes that Bazaine is surrounded in Metz* by Prussian troops, and is expecting io be compelled to oapitulate his troops, they be ing short of provisions. An Estimate of His Strength. Special to theNae York Tribune.] London, August 26—Tie best information about Bazaine’s army, which all German offieial telegrams prove is shut up in Metz, makes his strength about 60,000. McMahon’s army cannot exceed 100,000 real goad troops, the remainder being raw levies. - .* , -7\. The Tribune special correspondent telegraphs from Frankfort Friday that the Strasbnrg be- seigers are makmg rapid progress. The citadel is in ruins and the arsenal is on fire. One bat tery has been silenced. Tht German trenches are close to the wails. The Hasty Evacuation of Kheimi—Prus sian Army on Short Batfon*-lta position Before Metz. London, August 26.—A Tribune special cor respondent writing from Kheims, on the 24th, says: This morning as we were at breakfast an officer of intendanco informed us that we must start instantly for Peetbill. The Prussians are marching on Ilheims, and are expected here this evening. True or not, this intelligence hastens the movement of the army, and makes it look more like a retreat than ever. r > nso. -: We are all on short rations. The first Pres- sian army having now occupied the same region for some days and tho country is all about being eaten ont, but supplies are hourly expected and the'men are cheerful. I have just returned from a visit to tbe outposts of the army, which are under the guns of forts St. Quentin and Gar- rieres, and looked down on the valley in which Metz lies. Large French camps mgy be ssen between Melz and the hill crowned by Si. Qceu- tin. Yesterday and to-day the Prussian pich- eers are throwing up earthworks for defense against sallies from Metz, but I believe the whole plateau is within easy range of the great fort, and that a bombardment would follow any attempt to establish an army in that position. The same correspondent writes on the 19th that Prince Frederick Charles got between a part of Bazaino’s column and pierced it. There is nothing to show positively whether they suc ceeded in getting back to Metz or away from it, but all this testimony points to the possible junction of Bazaine’s forces by Vonziers with McMahon. London, August 26.—The German Uhlans, areobjects of prodigious terror at Paris. Their arrival there is momentarily expected. Patrols* are stationed everywhere in the vicinity to an nounce the event. *• The Prussians Still Advancing on Paris— Contradiction or other Reports. (Special to tbe New York Tribune. | London, August 26.—The arrival of the King at Bar-le-Duc is ibe best comment oh .the French stories, assiduously spread in Paris, that tbe Prussians were caughtin a trap at Metz. Gen. McMahon’s movements are known to tbe Prussians, and they do not think them of enough consequence to delay the advance of tbe Crown Prince, or prevent tbe detachment of parts of Gen. Steinmetz’s and of Prince Fred erick Charles’ forces to strenghten the column moving on Paris. The Prussians front now stretches thirty or forty miles, the main column apparently march-, ing by Bar-le-Duc and Yittry, while Hie- left- wing has enveloped Chaumont and Brienne, from 25 to 40 miles southward of the line of march of the main column. The French - War Office privately asserts, nevertheless, that Mc Mahon and Bazaine aTe iu full communication, and pursuing the Prussians, which anybody may believe who likes. The last news from Strasbourg is that six per sons were killed, sixteen houses burned, and the cathedral slightly damaged. The people take refuge in their cellars. The firing from-the town killed a.large number of the besiegers.— As many spies stUI lurk in the city the comman dant has ordered the soldiers to Bhoot all per sons seen on the roofs of the houses. -■ The Tribune’s speoial correspondent at Paris writes on Thursday evening:: The. Ministers say privately that it was Canrobert, who, with one or two divisions, got away after the battle of 1 the 28th, and with whom MoMahon hopes tar effect a junction.

A Wnshiagton correspondent gives some in- teresling statements in regard to the census now being taken, received from Gen. Walker, the Superintendent. Gen. -Walker, states, that by next week he will have the total populations of Maine, Delaware, Connecticut, and Rhode Island, also tbe Eastern and Southern Districts. By the 1st of September; the Northern District of New York; Maryland and Ohio'; by the 15th of September, all tho States and Torritories, except Texas and Oregon, and a portion of Western Michigan, which will not be comple ted by the 1st of October. He will be able to give the complete population of the conn try by the 10th of October. He says that by the 1st of September ha will be able to give the population of all the large cities of the country except San Francisco, and this. latter by the 10th of September. He has inade an estimate, and places the total population of the country at 40,300,000. He argues that the large cities will fall twenty per^ cent- below the estimates placed upon their populations, for the reason that the estimates are based upon calculations made of the number who are ar riving in the city. . But no note has been taken of those who have left. The Chicagoans are now much disappointed over their figures, showing but 230,000, when they expected'400,- 000; but it is tbe.same-with. Cincinnati, -where they claimed over 300,000, and have but bare ly 200,000.. It i3 so in all the Western cities, and to a larger figure in the Eastern cities. Ho says that the number of houses unoccupied in the large cities is almost . .fabulous,, and is a proof of the fact that njany persons are leaving the larger cities and going West and South.

SALARIES. The salaries of the leading correspondents range from $40 to $60 per week, and as thoy generally write letters to their own or other papers, they usually average an inoome of about $300 per month during the season. The letter writers proper, of whom there are a nmnb< r tolerably well known to the country, don’t, as a rule, earn as much directly from their profession as those whose work is chiefly confined to news telegraphing. Yet, on the whole, it certainly must require a higher order of talent to win reputation thereat than to be come successful as a special reporter, though there is more real ability required for the lat ter than the public, or often even“Mr. Able Editor,” thinks is-needed. There is one thing be said for the press gang here, and that *o, as a rule, they are among the best looking, and certainly the best dressed, body of pro fessionals I know of.

The result is that at present in Prussia all men betwfeenjNenty and thirty, not disabled or for speouj reasons otherwise employed, are in the field. It is painfully impressive to see the deserted as pect of German cities. Who does not remem ber the busy crowds in the narrow streets of Cologne ? Now they are dead and noiseless, with none but boys and old men to Bhare their space with women. What I saw in Cologne 1 also saw in other towns. Everywhere the thews and sinews of the male population are oue to the war, and everywhere I found they ji so with admirable readiness.
