A Paris lettel of a recent date contains the annexed: The accounts of the crop:- from al! parts of | the courtry are hi., hly fav r Die, end i- j sent our “corn, w;ne r.iid oil as or.lv requir ing sunny influences to bring t tom to . ■ ! tion.

The j libone district, lias been slip Idly injured ;y heavy rains and late frosts, ami will this year be less prolific. liut every tvnere the ordtutn, or gra;>e di.nr.se. has either di.-appeared or shows itself so slightly as to be easily master ed. This is a great time for pdshing'cn public work- in Paris, and the ex ton tof building operation in progre s is quite remarkable.— Miles of new streets and boulevard uad . ven ues. are .- .i* . hi,:;; the . --Ives out hi every direction, and the hot atmosphere is made yet more suffocating by the dulit of exeat alien* and demotion ~ The municipality of Paris now disposes of*Tevenues amounting to mere than one hundred and, twenty-five millions of franc* per annum, and etua dispO;- .1 at this moment to strain its immense resources to the utmost. Whole quartets of ihe town are being changed until they can l. .longer be •-.cognized; the old worn and squalid streets being pierced [through by princely the:ouga fares, which are as epee.'.ily lined wo.ii m .. iiiticent erections, and occupied ns they are built. Yet, in spite Os all this, rents coiuinne to rise, arid twenty and thirty thousand frarn - is here no unusual sum 16 pay for a private residence, whole stores in good situations fetch twice or three times as much. The population cf the French capital, ac cord ing to returns jufit issued by the Hotel de Vilie, amounts now to 1,096,151, con:,j,hied in twenty arrondisr.ementg, or districts, each of which is presided oyer by a Mayor, 'there are, therefore in Paris, no less than twenty one Mayors, the Prefect being the chief Mayor, and presiding over all. According to tine" ■•nine returns, which ) was looking over the other day, I find that, the number of bit tire in l’.cis, last year, was 52,313, of which 20,505 wore boys, and 25,507 girls Os the win !- num ber, 11,501 were illegitimate, and 57.720 b ~n in wedlock. The number of deaths was 12,- 185, and the ex<- of birth 10,127. Tho mat tages celebrated, were 15,196. A correspondent of the London Times wait ing from Varna un-'er dale of June,l giver the annexed idea of the suffering experienced by tin tJi’ca'.sons, who have been driven from then country byiLe Russians; I sec by the English papers that it is propos ed i . raise a subscription for lite-e p .or Gir casstans. and never did people need i‘ more Thereto- been a mi stoke as to where they are to be lauded in Biikmia. The Uovern mciit meant to sen i them nearly all (o Rust chuk, but centra i«*d v,ith tli - Grippe:s foi a passage only to this place, which is Jot) miles from their destination. The (ircassiana are accordingly all turned ashore till the Pasha (oncludes a fr* It bat gain with the Captains to carry them on. This fi:u happened three or four tidies already, and in some cases (he steamers have gone away and left Ibe misera ble creatures to shift for fhemseivei. Many <u the Circassians speak Turkish, and J have bad long talks with them. Their descriptions of the hardships tblsy have *utiered am heartrend. iug. They ted mo that most of them were turned out ol their homes by the Russiate in ttie winter (four in aitOs age) and driven down to the sea side, where they waited long for the means of getting away. ’ Hundreds of them died from the eo’d, and hundreds hunger. Wo have all had it, or have it now; and I answer for the truth of this, for nearly every man, woman and child I see is marked* and in hundreds the faces and hau-Js are quite raw with it. Since 1 have been here (three weeks) three hundred, at the lowest estimate, have been buried in the sands outside the town. They all say they li tl of ccrt l. We ha ve hid much rain, especially at ’ night, and these poor.wretches have had to sho p out in it with nothing to cover them but their orUmsry violins consisting only, in the case of the wo men, of a sort ot along dressing gown a: Hi -n pair of drawers. After one ol these uights the dead lie thick .on the ground, and others longing, I should think, to follow Maun. Oi course the women and children sitter most. To J uw a ship load landed and marched out of town. They were in a dreadful state. 1 noticed one worn in cariisd by five men; she was a rr:e ■ skeleton, in her arms she had a baby that could not have been more than a tew hours old. 1 saw a man walking by a cart, v-lth live of his children in it; lie was" a tine looking fellow, but oh, so thin! and Mm poor children toe most fearful objects t ever saw. 1 shall river forget the sight! Their skins were so tight over the bones that it seemed those must coiue through; and indeed, in the cnee of ono poor little thing about three years old, covered with sores, 1 believe the bones were through the skin. They tell me it is starvation from hunger that is killing tueiu, but starvation from cold. It ijas barn ve v cold spriug here, and even now a well clothed map would sudor from Bleeping in the ( pan air at night. The Turkish Government does what it <• m for the ■ miserable people, but lliat amounte only to bringing them here, and giving oacu person two pounds of bread per day. A foreign correspondent of the New York Tribune writing from Con. tantinople under date of July 80th speaks thus of the late net of the Sultan : All Constantinople is in a iWinent. T. v * greatest excitement prevails among all cK«vos. On Sunday last all the converted L’urUa who could be found were suddenly seised and thrown into prison. On Monday ihe t stablishments ofthe American A nario 15i ' Society, the British Bible .So.ivty, an 1 all the English Missionary Societies were and by an aimed force, the occupants eo.-d, and’ tlte buildings sealed up.

The policy of En gl end had been to recognise the defaeto Gov ernment, the condition being that the Govern ment, should be in possession of their capital. The Archduke Maximilian was at present in possess.on of the city of Mexico, and also of a considerable portion of the territory, and her Majesty's Government had intimated-, to the Government ol the Emperor of the French that wWn the Archduke should be in Mexico, and had notified the fact to the European Pow ers, it was their intension to advise the Queen to recognise him. They would not wait to adopt that course until the main portion of the States and territories still under the sway of President Juarez were brought within the authority of the Archduke. The skull of Confucius has just been sold for the sum of £327 sterling, at the sale of Lord Elgin’s collection of curiosities, made during his residence as English Envoy in China and Japan. This is a higher price than Confucius hiaiself would have brought had be been sold as a slave in his lifetime ; and it is only fair to add that the skiti) was adjoined with a carca net of briliant ami valuable jewels. The Liverpool Courier, of July 11, says : A short time ago we chronicled the launch, the same day, of the paddle steamers O .vl and Bat, 771 tons each, built of steel, for light draft and speed, by Jones, Quiggan & Cos , of Selton r feet, Liverpool. This wqs on the 21st of June, and on the same day rtakO.vl was - taken into the floating docks of Laird Brothers to receive her machinery. The boilers were put aboard that afternoon. The engines, nominally 180 horse power, have been since put on board and the vessels prepared for sea. On Thursday, 16 days from her launching, she proceeded on her trial trip, making 16 miles per hour. She is evidently intended for blockade mnning, and will doubtless, from her great speed, prove profitable to her owners. Tire Liverpool Mercury says Confederate Minister Preston, did not go to Mexico. Up* on arriving at Havana lie was informed his mission would be a failure, and die went tq England. The latest novelty in London and Paris is the photograph letter .signature. Note and tetter sheets are now gotten np with miniature oval photographs of the peisons using them affixed to the right hand lower comer of the last page, after the words “Very truly, yours,” which are printed in the usual place. They are getting to be quite as fashionable as tfie cartes cla visile. There is a story circulated in Germany,- and some circles in Paris, that the match between the heir-apparent of tivt Imperial throne of Russia and the Princes Dagmar of Denmark having been definitely broken off, another G in course ol negotiation between- His Imperial Highness and the Princess Helena of England. A distinguished French military suigeon has remarked that 10.0.000 francs spent in fresh ve geiables will save 500,000 francs from the ex penses of sick soldier sentering th« hospital, be sides the use of tiro mo a for active service.

A trotting mat h came oli in the neighbor hood of Leeds, England, recently, between a noted horse called Jack Rossitcr, now aged nineteen years, and mare cal led Matchless, pur chased for the sole purpose of defeating the in vincible Jack. The match was for £SO a side, and the dPlace to.be run was fifty miles for the horse, and forty-nine miles and one thousand two hundred and sixty yards l'or the mare. At tli the end of the forty-fifth mile the mare fell down dead. Jack Rossiter did his fifty miles three hours and thirty minutes, twenty seven miles of the journey having been com pleted iu one hour and forty minutes. The winner was in a most deplorable state at ihe finish. Lord Henry Bonteck’s magnificent stud has been sold at auction. Messrs. Tattersallput up to compitition ninety i.ino lots, comprising hunters, hacks, n few brood mares and some young stock. Lord Henry reserved the right of bidding up to 260 ginueas for twenty lots, ihe remainder being proposed for sale without re serve. The seventy-five hunters realized 12,4(41 guineas, being :iu average ,of something like 166 guineas, each. One horse called Comet fetched 4100 guineas, His Lordship’s stables, erected at the cost of £5,000, were much ad mired by the visitors to the sale. His Lord ship has hunted the Burton country—Lincoln shire —for twenty years, and lias spent iu horse ilesh no less a sum than £130.000. On April 15th lat, the autograph ietters of the Emperor of the French were presented to the two Kings of Siam by the French Consul with great solemnity. The constitution of Siam gives an independent and equal power to «anh sovereign, so flint any compliment naid to the one, must, of necessity, he repeated to the other. The reception given to the Consul by the first King was carried out according to the ancient etiquette of Siam ; the Consul was accompanied by thirty-nine magnificent gon dolas, by banners and palanquins, by Man - in the richest costumes, aud a body of troops, about 1 500 in number. The King received him seated on his Throne of State, with his most splendid crown on his head, aud decorated with the insignia of the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor. He stopped from hi:? tnroiie to-take from the hands of tho Consul the golden vase containing the Emperor’s letter which was, of course, in ihe French language, hut accompanied by an English translation, ihe King said that the receipt of this letter reminded him of that addressed by Louis XIV, to his predecessor, Phra Nazai, and proceeded to translate it into Siamese for the benefit of his Court. In the evening the Consul was in vited to a private entertainment, at which he met the King, surrounded by his young family, and coayertQd with him tor a iong time in the English language. The interview .with the second King was equally brilliant, and had his peculiarity, that this sovereign, while re maining faithtal to Ihe traditions of Siam, has adopted customs and even Court oeremonies of an entirely European character. Serums and his sflieers, who for somo time were in Liverpool, have left for parts unknown. The London Herald says that tho actions of Grant plainly show that he is at the end of his resources. The London Times says that the best service the English Government can render to the cause oi peace in America is to let events ran their course, and not to interfere in American politics by word or deed. The English journals are again engaged in dyussing the question of our recognition, which they consider as «. foregone conclusion oi the Briti h nation. The people, they think, will compel.the present ministry, opposed to xecgmtipn, to resign, or that ministry, under the pressure of public sentiment, will change its policy on this subject. A meeting of workmen has just taken place iu Turin for the purpose of thanking the En glish people tor their reception of Garibaldi. The portrait of the General and that of Victor Emmanuel were placed side by side, crowned with laurels and surrounded with flags in the national color. Victor Emmanuel was prts eut at the meeting, and all eyes were repeat— ly turned to the seat he occupied. The pro ceedings lasted two hours, five ' thousand per sons bemg p.esent. The following resolution was unanimously adopted : “The meeting, "consul ring that the English people, by their reception of Garibaldi, have done homage to' the virtues of the gr eat citizen, and to tiie prin ciples of liberty, and the unity of Laly, to which he b&s devoted his life, thanks the" En glish people, and especially the English ope ratives. The meeting offers up the most ar dent vows for the liberation of Rome and Vcv nieea and_dyßirts_ that this object' may be at tained by legal meetings, and .by properly employing all tho active Idrees o? the nation. The meeting decides ihat Ihe address of the English workmen shall he upon stone, and ultimately Ire sent to'Rome." Vic tor Emmanuefflstened, it. is said, with interest, to the various speeches that preceded these resolutions, in some of which this Government was not always treated with much tenderness. At the close of the proceedings he neverthe less said : “It is not time wasted to hear the people talk about their affairs.” ARBBisT OF USX. DSX. TheNsw York'Tribune reports ; It will be remembered that the matter of the people against Major Gen. John A. Dix and staff for an alleged misdemeanant in illegally seizing the establishments ot The World and Journal of Commerce, for publishing the bogus procla mation, was argued before Judge Russell last month, and "a decision promised August 1. The City Judge had prepared his opinion and re turned to the city ou’Monday for.the purpose of delivering it iu open court, hut was unable to do so by reason of a severe attack of erysipe las, which confined him to' his room. On Sat urday,- however, his Honor had sufficiently re covered to be able to he out, when he filed his opinion in the District Attorney's office.— Subjoined is the decision: The People agt. John A. Dix and Others.— It is unnecessary for me, in deciding Ibis mat ter, to rehears,the facts of the case. The defen dants, through their counsel, plead themselves under the protection of section 4 of the Act of Congress of March 4, 1863, entitled “An Act relating to the habeas corpus, and regulating judicial proceedings in certain cases.” If that provision is constitutional it assimilates the President of the United States, during the ex istence of the present rebellion to an absolute monarch, clothes him with all tho imaginary perfection of that monarch, and makes him in capable of doing any wrong. This is very no yei and startling doctrine to advance under a a republican form of Government. 1 have given the case a most careful consider ation, ou the one hand seeking to avoid an un due interference with Ihe agents of the General Government in the performance of their duty, and, on the other, keeping before me my own obligation to uphold aud enforce the laws of this Sta e. Ido not deem it proper to State in detail the views 1 entertain upon tho legal principles so ab'iy discussed before me by the counsel on both sides. Such an exposition of t o law would he more appropriate should this case -come before the court for trial. It strikes me, however, as a lit occasion to enable the great questions involved in it to be brought up in such a shape as to admit of their being ab solutely and finally settled. IT ttie Act of Congress iu question Is con stitutional in the particular contended for by tho defence, it does look as though it impar ted to the President powers raising him above the instrument which creates his office, aud giving him ihe right, in his discretion, to obey that instrument or not. The principle is not mooted for decision in this case as to how far the President can act upon a State in which insurrection or rebellion prevails, and where the powers of the civil authorities have been suspended and the civil law substantially expelled. In such a con dition of things he must and ought to have very great poweis in older to restore and maintain the laws. In this State civil power is, and has always been, iu the ascendant. Oar citizens are sup posed to enjoy the blessings of the Federal Con stitution, and repose under the benign opera tions of their own immediate legislation. If a rebellion in any of the insurrectionary States can deprive them of this, then the Government of every State in the Union is at the mercy of every other State. It cannot be possible that any effort to suppress an insurrection n a se ceuing State, requires any disturbance of the institutions of the loyal States. It* the Presi dent can direct anything to be done in this State ire pleases, and hn order is a perfect shield to those who obey his commands, ha be comes a despot, and is no longer the chief mag istrate of a free people. The distinction, then, is between what' lie can order to he done in a loyal State and oiib which is rebellious and claims to have retired from our confederacy. If he is empowered to bring back the latter to its allegiance, aud to force it to submit to the -Federal Constitution and .the laws enacted in pursuance of it, is he empowered to obliterate, and tor the time be ing, to wipe out all constitutional guaranties in favor of the former ? It ought to be the law,, if it is not,, that the will oi the President is not supreme in a loyal Slate. To a certain extent the Federal Government, like an indi vidual, is.protectsd by Slate laws, aud in re turn is to respect and obey them. These suggestions would app ar to-be fairly deducible from the healthful principles estab lished by the Supreme Court of the United States iu J 5) tie agt. Bardi u, (2 Ciauce, 17i>) and Luthqr agt Barden, (7 Howard, U. 8. Rp., 1.) They cert .duly sanction the doctrine that gov ernments, like individuals, must not only en force, but obey, the laws. The provision of the act of Congress relied upon L>y the deiince has come under review by the Supreme Court of the State of Indiana in. Griffon agt. Wilcox, (21 Indiana it. 870.) which court pronounced against its constitutionality in reference to the rights of its citizens as secured and exercised under its own laws. The prize cases (2 Black, U States It. 635,) do not conflict with the ground taken for the prosecution in this case. The position of this State, in my view, is this: internally, we are enjoying our civil Government, as though no other State had repudiated its alie*- giance to the Union ; externally, wc are paiti cipating in an effort to subdue a number of refractory States. In reference to the point of intent, which was so s ;l!ou.-:1 v discussed by the defendants’ counsel, the law is very plain. If the defendants’ acts were unlawful, and they were sane when they committed them, they are presumed to have intended the neces sary consequences of those acts. Every in telligent moral agent is supposed to design every consequence iuevitably his conduct. Intention, vljeh is said to beetle Soul of crime, can never be made out but by and from external conduct. And if it Should prove in lids cash that the defendant* have no Legal justification for their acts, tho same pre sumption will reach them which would atlach to any other violation of the law. The. complaints will therefore pass to the Grand Jury, in the usual way, for its action. The defendants need not enter into any written recognizance with sureties. Having submitted themselves to th** jurisdiction offtha; laws of ibis State and, wilh the consent of the District Attorney, been enlarged ou their ver bal recognizance, it is reasonable to suppose that the same will be ample security tor their future appearance, especially as during the argu ment beforo me one of their learned counsel ex pressly ratified the same.

Executive Department, J " Milledgevilie, Aug. 19th, 1864. j To the Ju.tkes of the Inferior Courts and Aids de* Camp : I am informed that the Police in some of the counties who have been detailed, under Orders from these Headquarters, upon the ap plication of the Inferior Courts, to act ss a po lice force for their respective counties, are neg lecting their duties and giving their attention exclusively to their owl private affairs. This connot be tolerated The detail were not grant ed to them as matter of persouaijavor, but as matters of public interest. They are required to give their whole time to the business of traveling through the coun ty from plantation to plantation, under such regulations as the Courts may prescribe, and in seeing that the negroes on all plantations, left without overseers, are kept iu subjection, aud property protected. This duty is expected to be performed as promptly and faithfully as they would perform the duty of soldiers.at the front. No Police man is expected to give any more of his time to his OA’n plantation than he does to the planta tion of like size.of each other person in the section of the county to which he may bo as signed by the Court. Ineaehca3e of neglect to perform his duty under the rules here laid down, the Court and he Aids-de-Camp are charged and required to arrest such delinquent policeman and send him iin immediately to Maj. Gen. G. W. Smith, at Atlanta, that he may he compelled to do his duty at the front. J E. Brown. Fxecuitvr Department, £ MiLLEDOeviu.io, August 10th.1864' ) As numerous applications are made to this office by persons now in the Division of Miltia under command of Maj. Gen. G. W. Smith, tor furloughs, details aud discharges, I take this method of stating to all concerned lha; the Division has been placed under the command ol Gen. J. B. Hood till snob time as I may choose to assume thoxommand, or till I shall order it disbanded, when 1 am satisfied tho emergency has passed As it. is important that there be no divided counsels at Atlanta, when so much depends upon the result, I deem it proper that Gen. Hood, while iu command of the Militia, shall have the entire control. Ko soon, therefore, ae the men are armed aud sent to Atlanta I yield the solo commut'd to Gen. Hood, till I shall think proper to resume it as above stated, aud alt applications for furlough, detail, or dis chage must he made to him through the regu lar military channels. Nono of them will he acted upon by me. The Hospitals of the Mili tia are also under the direction aud control of tho officers in charge of the Department, un der Ten. Hood, and the State has no control over them. During the time that Gen. Hood commands the Militia they are as absolutely under hia control, lor the defence of Atlanta, as the Georgians in Virginia are under the control of Gen. Lee. The only difference is in the term of service. Those in Virginia are iu for the war, while the Militia are in for the emergency to he judged by the Governor, aud they are disbanded or by his order. » •Joseph E. Brown. Tub Batilu ok Oi.dtown.—The following ac count of the battle at Oldtown, Md, is given in the Cumberland “Union” of the Oth inst: General Kelley sent Colonel Stought out to Green Spring run on Monday afternoon—he having been ordered in previously with his command —to cut off the retreat of Johnston and WcCausland, who were expected to reach Oldtown that evening at six o’clock. Tiie Colt federates, however, changed their course, and came in- on tiie Baltimore pike to “capture Cumberland,” and consequently did not arrive at Oldtown. Colonel StoUgh, however, was ignorant of this fact, and crossed the river, disposing his command in ambush, at a position two miles north of Oldtown, as we understand it. There be and his men, only four hundred and fifty strong, lay quietly all night, with .vigilant and wide-awake pickets posted in various direc »s. At five o'clock on Tuesday morning Confederates approached in force on our (bit flank, and when Ihoy came within rifle range, out- men rose and gave them a lull vol ley, which emptied several saddles. As -the volley vran tired a full-breasted Yankee “tiger’’ reut the air, and tho Confederates felt back in confusion. Our men fought them until !) o'clock, when tho Confederates flanked them iu overwhehu ii.g force, and Col. Stoughs ordered them to tali b tek across the rever. This litey did gradually, in line order, the men stopping occasionally to empty their riiles in tiie brents of the advanc ing too. O.ae young man of Col. Stough’s re giment, the one hundred and fifty third Ohio, young Colfi, id, said to his commander, Capt. Cross, “I am bound to give them one more shot.” He did so* and had not moved twenty paces to the rear before he received a mortal wound in tits bowels aud fell, saying to bis comrades, “I am going now, boys. Good bye.” Our men having creased tiie river, were posted behind the railroad embankment, and held tho Contederates back half an hour. The iron ciad truin having been disabled, could give the infantry no assistance, and the tiie became so deadly that the larger portiou cf our men •were ordered to take the train and withdraw it to Cumberland. Capt. Cross, supposing Col. titough on board, pushed off? but the Colonel remained with a squad and repaired to th“ blockhouse, at which he had previously placed forty men, an l held the block house for an hour and a half, notwithstanding the Confede rate shells weie knocking it to pieces over their heads. Col. Stough, at a eleven o'clock,received the following message by flag of truoe: Acogcst 2, 18G4. To the Commander of the Forces in Block house: You will surrender the blockhouse and your torces at once, if you do not, you will not re ceive any terms. Bradley T. Johnson, Brig. Gen. Confederate Forces. The Colonel requested tosjo ihe forces, which lie discovered had entirely surrounded him, and one twenty-tour pounder, one twenty-pound howitzer, ami four throe-inch regulation guns, in such position as to Itiiockthe blockhouse into particles in five minutes, and, ou consult ing with his men, returned an answer to the effect that he wound surrender only on these conditions: 1. That he and his men should be imme diately paroled. 2. That private property should bo respect ed 3. That the men should retain canteens, haversacks, blankets and rations, and 4. That he should have a hand car, with which to transport his wounded to Cumber land. These propositions were sent to Gen. Bradley T. Johnson, commanding a division of Confede rates signed by Col. L. Stongh, “command; r of a squad of the one hundred snd fifty-third Ohio,” and they were immediately accepted and respected. Col. Ktough had a lock of hair taken off his right temple, by a Confederate ball which be came twisted in it, leaving-a bare spot the size df a dime on his scalp. lie has also two bul let boldes in the front of his blonse, near at his breast. Gens. Johnson and McCausland treated Colonel Stough with great courtesy, and com mended him and his men for their bravery.— Gen. Jchnson admitted a loss of twenty to twenty-five men killed and forty wounded.— Col. Stough lost two rncu killed and threo Wounded, The Pbaoh Meeting New Hampsiiirb The Boston Courier gives the following ac count of a mass meeting of the citizens of Man chester, New Hampshire, last week, “for the purpose of consulting oh the best means for the early restoration of peace: - ’ A Peace Club was formed, of which William Little, Esq., was elected President and a consti tution adopted. Mr. Little proposed the fol lowing piattorm a s a basis of action for the club: Whereas,JWe Delieve that a Republican Gov ernment consits in the consent of the govern ed, and that if certain States should compel others by force of arms to unite with them, wc should not have a free government, but a despotism; and, Whereas, Knowing that the Federal Union is founded iu compromise, fraternity nnd the principles of peace, and that war begets hale, and if continued, can result only in disunion or the slavery of military despotism, therefore Resolved, That to make an effort for the restoration of peace and a free government we hereby form ourselves into a Democratic Peace Club, pledging ourselves to use all hon ourable means to place an administration in power that shall briog this war to an immedi ate close and that shall, with mutual concil iation and good will, make every effort to set tle our national difficulties upon the basis of a restored Fnion under the Constitution, and if that cannot be effected, then upon some other liaiiis'whirh' wiil'give peaeS'To our distracted country ou terms aiik« honourable to every s««tiom .
