GKBMAX WAR. Thu N(*w York papers of the 13th eon tain accounts of the battles of the 27th and 28th ult.. between the Prussian and Austrian forces. After giving the dispatches of both sides, which are very contradictory, the Tribune publishes, in’connection with a map, a very clear review of the cam paign in Bohemia, which we aiso append to the dispatches : Berlin. June 20, ]] : ]s a. in. —The Austrians were defeated on the 27th and 28th inst., nearNachod. by our First Ar my Corps ;on the 28th at Trautcnau by the Corps of the Guards, and at 3lun chengratz by Prince Frederick Charles. At Trautcnau the Austrians had from 2,000 to 4,000 killed and wounded, and lost several thousand prisoners. Our loss at tin; same place was about 1,000 men. Berlin, June 29. 1866. —Die Corps of the Guards yesterday defeated the Tenth Austrian Army Corps, under Gen. Oab lenz, after an obstinate engagement. The Austrians lost several thousand prisoners, some field pieces, and a large quantity of war material. Yesterday, the Prussian Fifth Corps, under Gen. Hteimnetz, which, on the 27tli inst., drove back the Austrian Corps to Josephstadt, again compelled the enemy to retire after a severe contest. Numer ous trophies were captured by the Prus sians. The greatest enthusiasm prevails in the city on account of the success of the Prus sian army yesterday. On the contrary, an Austrian dispatch says: ViknnAj June 28. — The official reports fulli/ confirm, the virion/ of the. oth Army (Imps over the, tinny of the (frown Prince of Prussia at Shalicz. It is officially announced that in the bat tle near Skalicz yesterday, the Prussians lost many prisoners and eighteen guns. After the battle a Prussian major proceed ed to the quarters of Marshal Benedek under protection of a Hag of truce to solicit an armistice. The demand was refused. Liverpool, Saturday Evening, June 30.—'The following is the latest Austrian official telegram relating to the fighting on the 28th: Parpijbitz, June 29.: —The Prussians yesterday were completely defeated by the Austrian forces under Gablenez, leaving behind one-third of their army killed and wounded. They withdrew to Prussian ter ritory toward (Hat;:. A Parks dispatch says: Paris, June 29, 1860. —The Momteur of this morning publishes intelligence from Berlin, dated yesterday, announcing that in a fresh engagement between the Prus sians and the Austrians, near Trautcnau, the former captured ten guns and took many prisoners. The Austrians were com pelled to fall bark. A special dispatch to the Times , dated •Josephstadt, June 27, 4:50 P. M., says: A Prussian force advadeed from Nachod and Neustadt this morning. They were ’ met near Skalicz by an Austrian army corps, and driven back after six hours fighting. The Austrian loss is heavy, especially in cavalry. The Prussian Campaign in Bohemia. 'flit; Prussian army of Silesia, command ed by the Crown lias been opera ting, as the reader may see by reference to our map, in Western Galicia and the Northeastern part of the kingdom of Bo hemia. The theater of the operations of this force in Bohemia is inclosed in a nar row strip of territory beginning near the north-north east portion of the Bohemian boundary, and reaching southward about one-third of the distance aoross the king dom. In the northern part of the strip, near the Silesian frontier, is Trateuau, a little town of 2,4ooinhabitants on the river Aufe, and the center of the linen manufac ture of the Riesengebirge. An engage ment is reported to have occurred here on the 28th ult, in which the Austrians were repulsed with the loss of 10 guns, falling back towards Josephstadt, a fortified town of 1,800 inhabitants, 15 miles furthersouth on the east hank of the Elbe. This movement places the Elbe between the two armies. About twelve miles north-east of Josephstadt, close to the boundary line between Bohemia and Prussian Silesia, is the town of Nachod, (population 2,000) on the Mettau, where the battles were fought on the 27th and 28th ; and four or five miles West of this place in the village of Skalicz, the scene of of another engagement on the 27th. Neus tadt, or Nowemiesto, is a little walled town of some 1,800 people, about six or seven miles South of Nachod. It has been men tioned in previous dispatches in connection with the action at the latter place. Jaro utirz, toward which the Austrians are said so have retreated after the engagement at Skalicz, lies only four or five miles from Josephstadt, and at the confluence of the Aufe with the Elbe. A dispatch from Pardubitz, which is a town on the Elbe, fifteen or twenty miles South of Joseph stadt and sixty-one miles East of Prague, state that the Prussians, having been de featad with heavy loss on the 28th, with drew to Glatz, a fortified town of Prussian Silesia, on the Neisse, some eight miles East of Nachod. This is a place of 10,000 inhabitants; and has repeatedly figured in military history. Oswiecin, where the Prussians are said to have been defeated on the 27th, lies considerably to the eastward of all the places above described, being a town of Austrian Galicia, near the con fluence of the Soda with the Vistula, thir ty-three miles from Cracow. The army of the Elbe, under Prince Frederick Charles, operated on a rather wider field, lying to the westward of that just described, and near the centre of the northern part of the kingdom. Reieh enberg. which they occupied on the 23d. is a town of 13,000 inhabitants, on the Neisse, 58 miles northeast of Prague. Thence they advanced to Turnau, a station on the rail way from Dressden to Prague, about 12 miles south of Rciehenberg. Munchen gratz, a handsome place on the Iser, which they captured on the 28th, is about 7 miles southwest of Turnau, and a few miles from Furstenbruek, whither the defeated forces reti#d. Huhnerwasser, some 12 or 15 miles west oi Turnau, is a small town on a height surrounded by forests. Jicin. where the Prussians were defeated by Gen. Edelsheim on the 28th, is a walled town on the Czidlina, some distance southeast of Mun ehengratz, and 50 nines northeast of Prague. Leipa is a tod’ll of 6,000 people, on the Polzen. near the northern frontier, and 15 or 20 miles northwest of Munehen gratz. l)aub& is a much smaller place, about 15 miles south of it; and Melnick, on the Elbe, is about the same distance south of Dauba. After withdrawing their forces from these last three places; in consequence of the defeat at Jicin, the Prussians moved towards Niemes, a town of 3,300 people, about equi-distant from Leipa, Dauba, and H all nerwasser. The London Times, in alluding to the contradictory reports, says: “Unless the news from Berlin misrepre sent greatlv the occurrences of the last two days, the Prussian arms have achieved a solid success. The battle at Nachod or Skalicz. which was described by the Aus trians as a victory of their own, is now claimed by the Prussians. It is impossible to reconcile the two opposite accounts, and wo must leave the truth to be determined by the great purifier of history—time. X i enna officially announces that in the battle the Prussians were completely repulsed from Skaliez, and that they lost a number of prisoners and 18 guns. According to another narrative they retreated so hastily that they left their dead and wounded be hind them. On the other hand iris an nounced from Berlin that in a two days’ engagement on the 27th and 28th. the Prussians had the advantage. \\ e can only conclude that there has been sharp fighting on these two days, between the frontier and Josephstadt.' To whom the victory is to be adjudged, or whether there was a victory at all, we have as yet no means of deciding. But telegraphic dispatches, however par tial they maybe, contain an element which enables the reader to form for himself some potion ot what hasbeendone. Uulessthey are absolutely false, they give with toler able accuracy the position of the armies.— .And though an advance Ls not necessarily the precursor of success, yet when we find an army maintaining its position in an ene my s country, and gradually moving for ward, we have reason to suppose that it cannot have been worsted. Tried by this test, the Prussians are at least gaining ground. ’ ’ Miscellaneous. The Austrians are advancing in Lombar dy, and have occupied Bornio, drawing the Italians back to Tirano. Girabaldi is at Lake Idro. The Austrians have forced their way into the valley of Cannoniea. The Italian headquarters are at Torre Malaberg. The original plan of campaign has been abandoned by Victor Emanuel, and is concentrating at Cremona and Ria cenza. The Southern Recorder and the Na tional Union Convention. Our neighbor objects to Southern repre sentation in the proposed Convention of the 14th of August at Philadelphia. He seems to be brought to this conclusion by his opposition to political parties. Why, neighbor, this is no political Convention— it Ls a Convention to rescue the Constitu tion and the Legislative branch of the Gov ernment under which we live, from the hands of political assassins. But the Re corder gives us two extracts from the call for this Convention, neither of which he can endorse. We shall give them present ly; but in the mean time we would say to him if he does not accept the issue as Gen. Lee accepts it, and all other statesmen and soldiers of the South accept it. he better emigrant to Brazil or Mexico. But to the extracts, so hard for our neighbor to get over. First: “That the Union of the States is, in every case, indissoluble; that there is no right, anywhere, to dissolve the Union, or to separate States from the Union, either by voluntary withdrawal, by force of arms, or by Congressional action ; neither by the secession of the States, nor by the exclusion of their loyal and qualified representatives, nor by the national Government in any form; that slavery is abolished, and neither can, nor ought to be re-established within any State or Territory within our jurisdiction; and the purpose of the late war was to preserve the Union and the Constitution by putting down the rebel lion.” Well, now, didn’t the War settle the question of secession ? Do you expect to try secession again as a remedy for political evils? The South made the issue, lost the cause, and will never renew it so long as phe stands pledged to the settlement which Generals Lee and Johnson made for her people. Slavery is abolished. Don’t our neighbor think so? Would he re-es tablish it if he could ? If the war did not “preserve the Union and the Constitution,” then our neighbor goes with Thad Stevens in his notion that the war neither preserved the Union nor the Constitution. But how the Rccovdcr can object to the following paragraph, we are at a loss to ac count : “But no delegate will take a seat in such Convention who does not loyally accept the national situation, and cordially endorse the principles above set forth, and who is not attached, in true, allegiance , to *the Constitution of the Union, and the Gov ernment of the United States.” Do not the Editors of the Recorder pub lish their paper by reason of a written pledge to conduct it in a spirit of peace and obedience to the laws of the linited States? We do not ask our neighbor to 11 cordially" endorse all that the call sets forth ;we do not do so ourselves; but we do say that if he does not bear “true alle giance to the Constitution of the Union, and the Government of the United States,” he has no right to expect to be represent ed in the Convention at Philadelphia, or in the Congress of the United States. If the good men of the North ask us to help in the great work of restoring the Southern States to their places in the Union, how can any Southern man stand back ?—Fed eral Union. Personal. Gen. J. C.

Steiner was dan gerously bumped at Cleveland: Buislay had a plunge in the Hudson at New York, and Bassett, at Hanford, had to jump from his car into a tree top to save his life, leaving his balloon to boot. An exchange tells us that two sisters #- cently met at the Relay House, near Bal timore, who had not seen each other for fbrty-eight years, though living only'a short distance apart, and frequently exchanging kindly messages. They talked about thir ty-six' hours, and were still talking when last beard from. The Broken Heart. P eas the white rose withering she lay ovelv, though (lying, and her eyes di vine pleamed o'er the deepening shadows of decay, Like a stary sunbeam on a ruined shrine, She seemed too beautiful for death’s era • brace, And holiness emrirt her as a zone ; Language has lied, hut music’s pictured grace Hung on those lips that late had breathed its tone. Oh, thou! the perjured, cruel, faithless, blind! How couldst thou bow such sweetness to the dust, How break the heart where thy loved image, shrined, Dwelt in thebeautvof undoubting trust? But thou didst break it. Nature could not cope With love neglected, whose undying power, E'en from the very sepulchre of Hope. Gushed forth like perfume from a tram pled flower. Tears for thy absence!, sighs at thv neg lect, Prayers for thy safety—smiles at thv re turn, And a fond blindness to thy worst defect— Thou didst repay with" undissembled scorn. Yet here she lay, and on tier dying bed She blessed their name—then "kissed the lock of hair That from thy brow in hapier days she shred— Then looked to Heaven, and prayed to meet.thee there. And with a holy look of hope and peace, She bow’d her head—the parting pang was o’er— Yet no convulsion marked the soul’s re lease. The pallid lip a smile of rupture wore; Her fleeting soul one radiant beam had caught, Warm from the fountain of Eternal Day, And left the image of the breathing thought Impressed in beaty on the breathless clay\ I saw her buried with patrician state— The sable plumes waved proudly o’er her bier, With all the pomp which riches arrogate, To deck the dust to which they yield no tear ; And as I gazed upon the formal scene, Where all was cold collectedness and art, I thought one tear of secret grief had been A fitter tribute to a broken heart. Statistical. There are 58,300 Chinese in California. There are nine hundred steam railroad corporations in the United States.

Courting is like eating strawberries and cream ; wants to be did slow, then you get the flavor. Kit North says that it is no wonder that woman love cats, for they are both domestic, not to say that they both scratch. Dr. Cheever says the Congressional Committee betray the colored race with a arecss into the power of their enemies. Too bad, isn’t it? “Terrible weather, this!” said Quilp, wiping his brow. “ Never saw any weather too hot for me,’ ’ was the derisive reply. ‘ ‘Good for you, ’’ _ said Quilp; “I congratulate you on being prepared for your ultimate destiny!” An old bachelor proposes the following “ sentiment ” for “ the thirteenth regular toast” on the 4th of July,: “ The Fair — May their virtues exceed the magnitude of their skirts, while theirfaults are still smal ler than their bonnets. ’ ’ The other day a Member of Qongress wishing to say, in fine English, that a friend of his had died, told the Hou§e of Representatives that “His gentlemanly spirit had winged its way to its maker.” Dean Swift proposed to tax female beau ty, and leave every lady to rate her own charms.

A little girl in Pennsylvania was lately reproved for playing out of doors with boys, and informed that being seven years old, she was “too big for that now.” ‘ But. grandma, the bigger we grow the better we like 'em. ” Grandma took time to think. A cat caught a sparrow and was about to devour it, when the sparrow said : “No gentleman eats till he washes his face.” The cat, struck with this remark, set the sparrow down, and began to wash liis face with his paw, but the sparrow flew away. This vexed puss extremely, and he said : “As long as I live 1 will eat first and wash my face afterward.” which all cats do to this day. Crops. The Jackson Missfssippian speaks dis eouragingly of the crops in that section. The cotton crops in Georgia is improv ing rapidly, with a prospect of a fair yield for the area planted. The corn crop is badly damaged by the drouth, which ap pears to be quite general. The Tennessee fruit crop, apples par ticularly, is very large—larger than it has been for many years. The crop in Smith. DeKalb, Overton, Putnam, Jackson, and Fentress counties, will not fall short of half a million bushels. In East Tennessee the corn prospect is better than it has been for years. The wheat crop in that section has turned out much better than was expected, and is the best tliat*has been realized for years. The Jonesboro Flag. Greenville New Era and. Columbia Herald, all confirm this state ment. The Cincinnati YoUcsfreiind, of the 12th says: Tennessee peaches are selling in that market at S2O per bushel. At fruit stands they sell three for twentv-five cents, and they are so small that they are not worth saying. Last fall peaches sold in Cincinnati at $1 per bushel, and should the price and quality remain as now, there will be but few canned this season. Miscellaneous.

The conductor, unable to quell the disturbance, stopped the train until the fight ended. Under the head of “Religions Intelli gence,” the New York Watchman lias an article with the queer caption of “ Hell for North Carolina.” “Help” is, probably, the w'ord intended in that connection. The sad story of conflagration and ruin from the beautiful city of Portland, revives the statement that in October, 1775, one hundred and thirty houses, or two-thirds of the place were burned by the British. The gun used on Morris Island against the steamer Star of the West on the 9th day of January, 1861, was taken away by four U. S. Regulars, and is to be added to the war relics at Washington.

The “Hub” lias some very good follows in it after all. At the Waumbeck Mills, in Jefferson (N. H.) six men sawed and edged twenty six thousand six hundred and fourteen feet of lumber in twelve hours. The num ber of logs sawed was one hundred and ten —all into inch boards, except one plank from each log. A piratical craft arrived in Galveston harbor on the 3d inst., wearing the black flag and carrying six guns on each side. City officers rowed out to her in a row boat, but were fired upon and forced to retire. The pirates then steamed away. A United States gunboat followed some time, but could not overtake her. An ingenious person in New Orleans has been engaged in making thread from the stalks ol the cotton plant. It is very fine and strong,'and looks very much like flax, being nearly as soft and pliable. He pur poses to make his thread into cloth, which he says will be as strong and durable as that made from cotton itself. Two swindlers, named Ellis and San ford, themselves as agents for “Blind Tom,” announced a grand musical entertainment and lottery scheme to take place at Troy, N. Y. Several thousand dollars worth of tickets were sold, and a large audience assembled at the hall on the appointed evening, when it was ascertained that Tom” had not arrived, and that the rogues had departed for parts unknown with the money they had obtained. A Saratoga correspondent says that Morrissey has found a rival in grooming the tiger. The intruder is a smashing fe male from New York, who lias taken a house on the same street where the ex pugilist’sclub house is located. Men have been waylaid by girls pretending to have lost their w r ay. Men have been enticed into the house under various pretences, and the bold, defiant, open, business-like way the house is managed, strikes all with astonishment. The Unconstitutioxamtv of the Income Tax.—A ease is being pre pared by a citizen of Springfield. 111., to test, before the United States Supreme Court the constitutionality of income tax. This person reports an income of $52,000, hut, protesting against the legality of the tax, declines to pay it, and will, when the usual compulsory action is brought, ask an injuction from Judge Davis, of the United States Court, restraining the revenue, col lectors from acting. By this means' the question will ultimately be brought before the highest judical tribunal for" adjudica tion. The counsel who is engaged in preparing the movement against the income tax law. ; makes the following points : 1. The Federal Constitution provides (article 1, section 2, parapraph 3.) that representatives and direct taxes shall be appointed among the several States ac cording to their respective numbers. 2. An income tax is a direct tax. 3. It must therefore be apportioned among tha several States according to their numbers. 4. The income tax as now imposed by acts of Congress, ls not apportioned among the States according to their. numbers, but it is laid by the rule" of uniformity. 5. The acts of Congress imposing such income tax are therefore unconstitutional and void. The tax cannot be collected. The Grasp of the Dead. BY L. K. LAX DON. ’Twason the battle-field, and the cold pale moon Looked down on the dead and dying ; And the wind passed o’er with a dirge and a wail, Where the young and brave were lying. With his father’s sword in his red right hand, • And the hostile dead around him, Lay a youthful chief; but his bed was on the ground, And the grave’s icy sleep had bound him. A reckless rover ’mid death and doom, Passed a soldier, his plunder seeking, Careless he steps, where friend and foe Lay alike in their life blood reeking. Drawn by the shine of the warrior’s sword, Hie soldier paused beside it; He wrenched the hand with a giant's strength, But the grasp of the dead defied it. He loosed his hold, and his English heart Took part with the dead before him, And honored the brave who died sword in hand, As with softened brow he lent o’er him. “A soldier's death thou has boldly died, A soldier’s grave won by it; Before I would take that sword from thine hand, My own life's blood should dye it. “Thou shalt not be left for the carrion crow, Or the wolf to batten o’er thee; Or the coward insult the gallant dead, Who in life had trembled before thee.” Then dug he a grave in the crimson earth, Where his warrior foe was sleeping; And he laid him there in honor and rest, With his sword in his own brave keep • ing! News Summary. John 31. Grier, one of the editors of the Evening Telegraph, died in Philadelphia, on the 11th. He was well known in the West, where he had practiced law. A ball was'held in a German beer saloon at New Richmond, Ohio, a few nights since, and the festivities closed with the murder of a man named Acres, in the pres ence of his wife and children. It is proposed, by the railroads center ing at St. Louis, to build a tunnel under the 3lississippi at that point, to avoid the objection made to a bridge. It will cost $3,000,000, and be three-fourths of a mile long. The Government, so the Nashville pa pers say, once owned in the western part of that city a vast wood pile, containing at least 15,000 cords. Some officers were looking for it the other day, hut there was not a stick to be found. In the Southern part of Russia, it is said, an important trade is springing up in min eral naptha. Borings are made similar to those in Pennsylvania for petroleum, and the naptha Hows out, and is collected and sent to market. The Connecticut Legislature lias granted SIO,OOO for a Homcepatliic State Hospital, which is to be paid when the friends of the hospital raise an equal sum for it. The National Bankrupt bill, was report ed in Senate Friday by Judge Poland. — Now let us have a vote on it! The speeches can be excused. An attempt was made by some unknown person, on Sunday night last, to assassinate Gov. Fairchild, of Wisconsin, while walk ing in his garden, at 3ladison.

Seigfried, r.vstor of Twelfth Baptist Church, Philadelphia.) Gentlemen: I have recently been laboring under the dis tressing effects of indigestion, accompanied by a prostration of the nervous svstein. 'Numerous remedies were recommended bv friends, and some of them tested, but without relief. Your Hoofland’s German Bitters were recommended by persons who had tried them, and whose favorable mention of these Bitters induced me to try them. I must confess that I had an aversion to Patent Medicines from the “thousand and one” quack Bitters whose only aim seems to tie to palm off sweetened and drugged liauor upon the community In a sly way, and the ten dency of which, I fear, is to make many a confirmed drunkard. Upon learning that yours was really a medicinal preparation, 1 took it with happy effect. Its action, not only upon the stomach, but upon tne nervous system, was prompt and grati fying. I feel that l have derived great and permanent benefit t from the use of a few bottles. Very respectfully yours, W. D. Seigfried, No. 254 Shaekhmaxon street. A (jom the Rev. E. Dr. Fendall, Assistant Edltor'Christian Chronicle, Philadelphia.) I have derived decided benefits from the use ofHoofland's German Bitters, and feel it my privilege to recommend them as a most valuable tonic to all wlio are suffering from a general debility, or from diseases arising from derangements of the liver. Yours truly, E.D. Fendabl. (From i Rev. D. Merrlge, Pastor of the Passyunk Baptist Church, Philadelphia.) From the many respectable recommendations given to Dr. Hoofland’s German Bitters. I was induced to give them atrial. After using several bottles I found them to be a good remedy for debility, and a most excellent tonic for the stomach. D. Merrick. (From Rev. William Smith, formerly pastor of tlieVincen town and Milvillc (N. J.) Bapffii Churches.) Itaving used in my family a number of bottles of your Hoof land’s German Bitters, 1 have to say that I regard them as an excellent medicine, specially adapted to remove the diseases they are" recommended for. They strengthen and invgomte the system when debilitated, and are useful in disorders of the liver,] " ?*te <*tc. 1 have also recommended them to severa 'm holiavc tried them, and found them greatl be* and : restoration of health. Y • r . v Wm. Smith. 066 Hutchinson street, Philadelphia. IV (Fro ' h H. Kennard, Pastor of the Tenth Bap tist Church.) II itly requested to connect my name with com .. ferent kinds of medicines, but regarding the pracL.cc. - my appropriate sphere, I have in all cases declined: but with a clear proof in various instances, and par ticularly in my own family, of the usefulness of Dr. Hoofland’s German Bitters, I depart for once from my usual, course, to ex press my full conviction that, for general debility of the system and especially for liver complaint, it is a safe and valuable pre paration. In some cases it may fail, but usually. I doubt not it will be very beneficial to those who suffer from the above causes. Yours, very respectfully, J. H. Kennard, Eight ,below Coates street. Philadelphia, Dec. 24,1804. Rev. J. S. Herman, of the German Reformed Church, Kutz town. Berks county,’ Pa., was cured of Dyspepsia 4 of twenty years' standing. A. M.
