Our special dispatches from London thin morning confirm the news that has been already printed iu reference to a misun derstanding between Frauoe and Germany so far as Spain is concerned. The Ger mans, as our readers know, have taken offence at the summary execution of a German correspondent by the troops of Don Carlos. They propose to show their resentment, and, if possible, punish the offenders. But as a naval campaign against the Carlists, who are entrenched in the rugged, inaccessible hills of Biscay, would be aa absurd and impossible a pro ceeding hs a campaign against the Apaches with gunboats, the Berlin government naturally and instinctively turns toFranoe. The French oan, if they choose, punish the Carlists, because the frontier is under French control, and has been practically a base of supplies for Don Carlos. Now the Germans insist that because the Car- lists have killed a German the French shall punish them. They also give Ser rano aud his illegal government assurances of sympathy, and urge him to make a demonstration against France, and pro pose, as a correspondent says, to have the Brussels Conference unite in favor of a Steamer Burned Ohio. on the —The DeKalb county delegatee to the Democratic Convention of the 6th Con gressional District are in favor of the nomination of M.

Flocks of cheep and cattle feed on its aides and top. Captain Boutelle and others of the corps were five days above the olonds, on the summit of the mountain. —A correspondence between two Atlan ta lawyers—F. P. Gray and A. M.

This is cert inly keen diplomacy! Bis marck’s murdered German becomes of great use to him. He has a pretext which he finds convenient, although be does not always pause to find one when he has something to gain. He not only kills one bird with one stone, but hss a good ohance at a whole flook of them. He humiliates France, which is always a pleasant thing to do. He annoys the legitimists, who believe in the Pope and Dou Carlos. He flatters the Spanish rulers, who will deal moro strenuously with France now that they have behind them the powerful Ger man Minister. He shows distrust between France and Spain, and destroys the natu ral alliance that sympathy in religion and language and customs would establish. Having alienated Ituly on one side of France and Belgium on the other, be now solicits Spain. In the event of another war with Germany an alliance between Prussia und Spain, or even a good under standing, would render a French army ne cessary to wutch tbe Pyrenees. That, at least, would bo one army less to fight— not an unimportant consideration either when the battle really comes. * It is urged that France should recognize Spain, and thus anticipate Bismarck and in some way keep his iufltiencc out of Madrid. This may bo done. We can well understand how France would resent German influence in Spain. Nothing could be more galling to French pride than the policy which Bismarck has sud denly prtssed upon MacMahon, for all the traditions of Franco since Louis XIV. are opposed to it. There has not boen a time within two hundred years when a jolicy like Bismarck’s would not have )een followed by a French army over the Rhine. But there will be no war! Poor France bad to submit to affronts far more serious than this Spanish intrigue. Her rulers feel that for this year end many years perhaps their duty is to submit in silence to whatever affront Germany puts upon them. In this they show great wis dom and add another to the already loug list of wrongs which, when tbo time oomes, will justify France in resenting, and compelling Germany to undo at the risk of another war. This is our reading of the Spanish-German problem. France means to fight when she is ready, not when Bismarck is ready. Bismarck is very ready now, and so France submits, protests and waits. TWENTY LIVE* LOST. Cincinnati, August 5.—Tbe telegraph operator at Aurora, III., reports that the steamer Pat Rogers waa burned this morning, one mile below Aurora, and about twenty lives lost, the viotims being principally ladies. Further particulars are expected soon. Farther Details—The Beat Vami. arable-pilot Thinks the Fire on Incendiary One-Less or Life Pnknewn. Acboba, Illinois, August 5.—The fire originated in cotton bales In the hinder part of the boat, about six o’clook. The boat was immediately turned shoreward, but bacame nnmanagable. Tho pilot* thinks tbo tiller ropes wore cut, and that the fire was incendiary. The boat drifted on tho sand-bar and grounded. The flames, instead of apreading along the lower deck, nt once ahot up to the cabins afld pilot house, and then swept across tho hurricane deck. The passengers were all aroused, boats lowered, and many were oarried ashore, but others, in their fright, jumped into the water, and those who were not drowned reached a safe landing plaoe, after drifting a long time with the cur rent. There were nearly one hundred people on board, but what proportion of this number is actually lost is not known. No Southern Passenger* on Board- Boat Valued nt *60,000. Cincinnati, August 6.—No Soutnwest ern or Southeastern names are in the liat of the lost by the Pat Rogers. Both boat and cargo, the latter consisting of cattle, sheep and hogs, besides cotton, are a total loss. The passenger register and all other books wero destroyed. She waa valued at $00,000. The Other (Slice or Mexico. The St. Louis Times credits the story of tbe plan for a further cession of Mex ican territory to the United States, and aayB: The Rio Grando will always be an urn safe boundary, ond the loug stretch. of debatable land on either side will possibly, until a new order of things exist, never be given ovor to the civilizing process of industrious settlement. The frontier dif ficulties constantly arising between tbo Texans and Mexicans, and the inability of the Mexioan Government to control the lawlessly disposed citizens of Now Leon aud Tamaulipa^, has more than once given rise to negotiutions for mak ing the twenty-sixth parallel or the moun tain range of tbe Sierra Madron, tho boundary line between the two countries. It is now alleged that these negotiations have been renewed by Mexico. It is pro posed to cede the entire territory lying north of a line drawn duo west from the month of the Rio Grande (at tbe southwest corner of Texas) to tbe Pacifio Ocean. This would include a iart of Tamaulipas, tbe north part of Tew Leon, nerly all of Coahuila including Monterey, part of Durango, all of Sonora on tbe Gulf of California and the north end of Sinaloa on tho samo shore, and nearly all of lower California. The rumor acquires additional proba bility in view of the delay of the settle ment of the matter which has been so long tho snbjoct of examination between the American aud Mexican commission- The claims already adjusted against A PHI ENT ON A III OH HOME. He Condemn Snored Concerto Ont- aftde the Cntholle Chureh. Caps Mat, August 4.— Sacred conoerta were assailed from the altar by Priest Degen, at the Catholio Church. He said that in lhe Catholio Church aloue oould sacred songs be with propriety chanted, and he denounced the Stockton, Congress Hall and Columbia House oonoert guests iu unmeasured terms. His argnmsnt was that only mnsio composed for seaside con certs should be used, and that Catholics were obliged to attend vesper service, which he fixed for Philadelphia, Baltimore and New York, at 8 P. m., after mass. The Catholios informally met in front of St. Mary's Church and denouneed the priest as intruding on Catholio usage by having vespers at night instead of in the afternoon, as ordered by stat utes of the diocese. Indignation runs high, end the case is to be reported to Bishop Corigan at Newark. The indica tions point to the fact that the Priest de sired to force vesper attendance at unu sual hours for financial gain, and was chagrined at tbe thousands assembled to eujoy Prof. Harkor's vooal concert at the Columbia House, and also Hsrtler’s A Dodsworth’s instrumental entertainment at Congress Hall and Stockton. Aa far as esn bo ascertained, rubrics of the Dio cese of Newark prescribe 3:30 o’olock as vesper hour. The action of Priest Degen is regarded as against the Catholio usage, and the entire Catholio community is in revolt. Father O’Neil, of the Philadel phia Cathedra), said late mass, but made no remafks. The visiting Priests here oondemu Degen and tho Bishop’s formal condemnation is looked for. The Tennessee Connty Election*. Nashville, Tenn., August 5.—The ap proaching oounty elections throughout the State are causing a great deal of ex citement. Party lines, in many counties, are being closely drawn on acoount of tbe Civil Rights bill. The contest in this oounty—between the Conservatives and Democratic nouiinoos on the one side and tbe Independents on lhe other—will, it is believed, be exciting. Both parties hive Unionists and ex-Confederatss on their ticket). Vlrfflnln Congressman Hns as Edi tor Arrested. Richmond, August 5.—Congressman James H. Platt, of the Seoond Virginia District, caused the arrest of Samuel Safford, one of the editors of the Sunday Gazette, lost night, on the ohorge of slander and libel. The at’ tide to whioh the exceptiona were taken was published two or three weeks ago, and ohargod that if Platt had reoeived his jnat dues he would have been in the penitentiary ten years ago, and that they had documents in their possession to prove it. Government Selaluff Spirits. New Yobk, August 5.—The revenue authorities seized about $90,000 worth of erode spirits at different places in the oity Monday on snspioion that fraud was in tended on the Government in ita measure ment. The liquor was contained in 1,476 barrels. The discovery of the supposed frand is tho result of the new order of the Internal Revenue Department requir ing all high wines to be regauged before rectification. It is said that about $60,000 has been advanced by merchants in this city on the liquor under seizure. Hnllrond Company Bncd-Bod Man Affemenl. Cincinnati, August 5.—The Louisville Short Line has been sued, and a receiver was asked for. The cause of tbe finan cial trouble is alleged in the petition to be by groRB mismanagement. The Cin cinnati Bridge Company sues for $30,- 000. The Congressional Naval Commit tee. Fowtbebh Monroe, Va., Ang. r».—The U. S. steamer Despatoh, with the Con gressional Naval Committee passed up this morning, and spent the day at Nor- folk Navy Yard. She resohed here at 4 p. m., and the party spent a couple of hoars visiting tho fort, after which they sailed for Philadelphia. Mexioo exceed eight millions of dollars. Her inability to pay it is clearly manifest. What thon is more reasonable to suppose than that Mexico is anxious to get rid of the lawless populations north of the Sier ra Madras, and to pay a claim otherwise unadjust&ble, should propose the peaceful cession of her surplus territory ? It is only a short time sinoe the Texas Pacifio Railroad Rent a special commission to Mexico to purchase the mining dis tricts in Sonora. Indeed, it was asserted that Santa Anna’s return from exile was specially designed to further their negoti ations. It is probable that the Texas Pa cific eonld not care to make these invest ments unless assured that tho territory would finally pass to the credit of the United States, aud that, confident of the eveutual cession, it is not surprising that it should wish to hasteu so valuable and important a purchase? There is another significant fact con nected with tho consideration of this sub ject. The Mexican Congress has given the control of the International Railroad from tbe City of Mexico to F.l Paso, con necting with the Texas Pacific at that point to an American company, of which Gen. Rosecrans is President. This road, so far as completed, hns been built with American capital, and tho franchises run for tweuty.five years. Certainly the mat ter is of sufficient importance to awaken publio interest. Exportation of Gold. Nzw York, August 5.—Tho Russia took $76,000 in gold. Cape Mat, August 6.—The difficulty that occurred on Sunday in regard to sa- ored concerts at the hotels, has been much exaggerated. Father Degan in speaking of them, merely stated that some portion of the music would be more ap- priate in tho Catholio Church, us they wero solemn to every Catholio heart, and recommended bis members to couie to church, and bear holy chants, iu prefer ence to attending hotel concerts. There was no dennneiation of Father Degan by Catholics, for bis notion, in which there was nothing wrong, as pastors are allowed by the Pope to fix the time for vespers to suit the convenience of the members. Conscience Money—Postal Cars Con* tinned. Washington, August 6.—Four hundred dollars of conscience money was received at the Treasury to-day from this city. The postal cars from New York came in last night, and this morning, as usual, without any detention at Baltimore, and left Washington last night and this morning passing over Mr. Hinckley’s road os for merly. It is now almost certain that Mr. Hinckley will continue to perform the service, knowing that Col. Bcott will ac cept it, if he does not, trusting to Con gress to grant him the extra compensa tion asked for. Flood at Treat**, Now Jersey. Trenton, August 6.—The main reser voir whioh supplies the oity with water gave way yesterday afternoon and sent about thirty million gallons of water over the oity and down Peunington avenue with a mighty rush, filling the cellars of moat of the houses. More of She Plymouth Chore* Bore. New York, August 6.—The Plymouth Church Committee will continue sessions to hear Moulton and the Beecher report, probably, to Saturday.

Haetin. The undersigned proposes to publish, in a volume of 150 or more pages, a work under the above title, covering the period from the selection of the locality for a “ trading town in 1827, to the capture and partial destruction of the city by the Wilson Raid, in 18(55. The inculenU will be derived mainly from its newspapers, which will be gleaned for this purpose with much care. It is believed that most of our citizens would like to have such incidents in this compact and convenient form, and will encourage the undertaking to the extent of the small amount asked for the work Each chapter will contain short biographi cal sketches or notices of the principal citizens mentioned in it, who have since died. The volume will also embrace full information concerning the churches, factories, dec., now existing. We do not propose to publish this compila tion with a view to making money, as the small price asked for it will show. Rut at the same time we do not want to lose money by iU publication, and therefore we wish to limit the number <tf copies printed to the de mand for the work. With this object in view, we issue this prospectus, inviting those who desire copies of the volume to soul in their names. The price will be one dollar per copy for a pamphlet bound volume, printed on paper like the specimen sheet issued. A small number of copies will also be issued on a su perior artieU of paper for |l 30 />«• copy. Payable when the work it delivtrtJ, which will be tome time next Fall. TUOS. GILBERT. May 12, 1874.
