WAR DESPATCHES BY MAIL, By the steamship America, at this port yesterday, we received the following highly hmportant mail de- tatis, in historical résumé, of the actual origin of the great war between France and Prussia, The general alarm of the surrounding Powers and bourses is also reported. A terrific slaughter was expected to ensue, Eve of War with Prussia—A Slaughter Expocted=Minor Issues Obliterated, Panis, July 10, 1870, Our eyes are wandering from Blots to the Rhine. Within @ few days my letters may be written from the Raute-cour, or the headquarters, of the French arniy on the frontier. A declaration of war would of course obliterate all interest in the great gomplot trial, and I may once more find myself surrounded unexpectedly with the pomp and panoply of war. Everything ls urging two great nations to a deadly strife, but which may yet by a miracle—and a mira- cle alone—be prevented. Should there be war between Prussia and France it will be terrific and the slaughter unparalleled in military history; but in all probability it will be short, sharp and de- clsive, and with @ few months we shall again enjoy peace, On the one hand 1 hear from French oMcers recently returned from Prussia that the military efficlency of that country Is at the present moment incredible; on the other, that war would have long since been declared by France bat that she is not satished with her Chassepots, Yesterday an ex-sous-oficter, who had been in the Crimea sald that during the war nothing strack him more forcibly than the difference between the French and the English troops, Tue latter acted as machines, which nothing but utter annihilation could arrest, They were obedient and stubborn until death, The indomitabie, unwavering pluck displayed was astonishing, “With our men,” he continued, “itis diferent.

Within a (ew hours it is probable that the question of peace or War will be decided. The Minister of Foreign Affairs deciared in convention with some of the members of the Corps Législatif, “Be certain that within three days we shall come to the end of the aitair—pedcé or war!’ The government uis- plays at this present moment an energy to ene witch this Country is but littie accustomed, Tbe Prince Napoleon, who ts quietly on board his yacht, bound for Greenland, with @ party of savants has been guddenly recalled. There are constant conferences at St. Cloud 1a the presence of the Emperor between tne Ministers of Foreign Affairs, of War, of the Navy and of Justice. Another ominous sign, but which, but for the quar- relsome state in which we are might pass without remark, ts that all the Emperor's saddle horses made their appearance at Vincennes tast Woek during the artillery firing, without doubt to become accustomed to the sounds which probably may ere long roar around them, as the Emperor Will, It 13 expected, personally assume the command: in-chief, with the Prince Imperial attached to his staf, Marechal Bazaine will take command of the Army of the Moselle, the chief of his staff will be General Casey, with the headquarters at Metz. Mareclial MacMahon, ordered from Algeria, will operate on the Rhine, with General Lebrun as chief of the sta. Generals Frossara and Boubaki will mireh with him, Generals Montauban and Crangarnicr will operate om the Spanish fron- tiers. At Toulon the armament of the six Jargest transports of the reserve is pushed on with vigor and the Mediterranean ficet recalled. In fact in every branch of the public service the activity displayed warrants the belief that war is imminent, All the men on leave of absence from the army anc navy haye received instructions not to absent them- selves from their homes, 60 ag to be prepared to re. turn to their posts at an Instanv’s notice, AT RMS. M. Benedett!, tne French Ambassador at the Prussian Court, arrived at Ems yesterday, to demand of King William an immediate reply. In govern- ment circles it 18 expected that the answer will arrive in Paris to-morrow. The only news of im- portance from Spatn is the official notification made to the European Powers by the Spanish government of tue candidature of Prince Leopoid de Hohenzollern. ‘The Regent Serrano and the Spanish government deiermme to support him without notictug ths veto of the french, The chief point of attraction, how- ever, 1s Berlin, The quesuion asked by every one of “How will Prussia accept the defiance ‘ere 18 an outery that the French Ambassadors at Beriiy and Madrid should be rechiled. that M.

There are ilnamerable reports asbroa that the Minisiry desires a war. Among others, the fol- lowing speech made by M, Olivier to a member of the opposition:—During the time I acted as Mials- ter of Foreign Affaira 1 Was anxious to read all our foreign diplomatic collection and I blushed with shame. 1 saw Frauce disgraced, the Emperor on his knees before Europe, and I sald to myself a war is necessary; War alone can save us 1’? The Presse—Which, since the retirement of M. Cacheval-Clarigny from the chief ecitorslup—lo: ho opportunity Of attacking M. Olivier, states t the Prime Minister said yesterday, “That ts nothing.

The Gazette de France, the Siécle gad the Avenir National fear that the Ministry may have been too ha-ty and bave goue too far. The France thinks that If affects ignorance it ig right that all the world should know that; she simply recoiled before the consequences of her ambition the day when France, wearied, drew herseif up before her. The Montiteur Universe coun- gels the eae not to hesitate, a8 it will be supporied by the conatry and by Europé. The Pays shows aiready the humiliation of Prussia yielding to Freuch menace. The government organs declare the whole tntrigue to be a challonge to France. The Temps diames Lhe course taken by the Ministry, bat relies on the intervention of other Powers. ‘The Journal de Paris ts of optaion that the other Powers will attempt to stifle at the commencement a fire which would be the signal for an aniversal conflag- ration. Tne Liverté has pubjished a remarkable ar- ticle by M. de Girardin, written in his most vigorous style. He demands that Europe should mee not in conference, but in congress. The late chief editor however, does not appear to have muck contidence in bis proposition, for he says: “Lf the idea of a congress be not Saopred with eager- ness, do not let us lose time in seeking allies; let us Teave aside Austria and Maly, so that tne policy of nettralliy may remajn intact, under which England and Russia will be glad to take shelter. Do not let us occupy ourselves In any way with Spain; she will not stir. Let us only think of confining the war en- tirely between France and Prussia, But rather, than compromise the work of Count Bismarck, Prussia will refuse to fight. Well then. with biows of the butt end of muskets tn the back, we will force her to crosa the Rhine and evacuate her left bank.’ THE CHASSEPOT. Now that the Chasaepot may be called into serious action, a few words in reference to the powers of that rifle may not oe uninteresting, This beh a was adopted in 1866 and has not as yet been tried in actual campaign. troops sent to save Rome from the Garibaldian bands were armed with Chassepots when tley embarked and exercised with them during the passage to Civita Vecchia, 4 beigade gupporied (eo Pavel troops, The Chamengt spoke for the first time at Men- tina, {ts effect was terrible, and the de- lighted commander of the French troops exclaimed, “Le Chassepot fait merveille.” In Algeria the rapidity of firing and the range of the Chaasepot aid Wonders. The powerful tribes Doni-Menia and Benl-Ghuil! were forced to submit within two days, although hitherto, surrounded by inuudations and thick woods, they had occupied an impregnable ‘position. ‘There Mttle doubt that fear of the hassepot and long, straight streets went far towards saving Paris frou a revolution at the time of the late plébiscite. There 18 nothing new Sunder the sun. Breech-loaders were actually pro- posed ae the time of Napoleon I, and that Em- peror is said to have foreseen and understood the Advantages which would accrue from their introduc. ton some days before his death.

From respect for M. Pauly the comuilssion kept silence and rejected the arm without publishing its defects. The idva of breech-loadera, however, was not abandoned, and in 1813-14, @ manufactory was established at St. Etienne for the favrication of gans and pistols a ta Pauly, Tne result was no satisfactory, THE NEEDLE GUN. In 1835 Lefauchcux (who, like Dreysae, the father of the celebrated Pruasiau needie gun, Nad been cm- loyed in Pauly’s manufactory) produced a rifted reech-loader, but it was unfit for soldiers in actual service.

From to-day's papers [ translate the following extracts to show you ‘the tone Of the press of Madrid on the subject:. [From the Disousion—Republican.] Our country as passed throngs many difficult and em) rassing circuinstances from the very firat day of the natio rising, but noi Meuit aud embarrassing as those weich ‘at present surround us. ‘The question of the Prussian candi- dature, which during the last few days has absorbed all the activity of our government, has given rise to seriour and most town of an foternational sori, which yesterday hintat in our article, French goverament notice of the favorable iniaters towards the Prince of Hohenzollarn n they looked with manifest ure upon tt, beyieving saw in it a decided inelin our part towards the fuvasive plans of Prassia, ani a menace for France. In this Idea it appears that the French Ambadsador, Baron Mercier, has confirred with Senor Sazaata, our Minister of Foreign Affairs, in terms somewhat offensive to the automony and dijnity of our nation—terms which were answered on the moment by our Minister with dee and resolution—an occurance which prompted the imineill- ate departure for Paris of the Secretary of the French im- Dassy, and also inspired Seuor Rivero in the council of Mla: islera to make a speech {n favor of the national iudepead eneo, threarened by the ofjcious talerventian of France, which intervention, in bis opinion, ought ‘to ba reyeoted wil our whole strength by giving the Franch staug shyl we accept ruroluioiy the Prossian candidature, mary wie rapoathy fi that, for tho triauph of erty in Burops: * a8 rotten TA Ped 19 Imperial wer which majniaine “‘@spotiem Ia Py nd whjeb in me, with its Fassalizing iu. so jug the pus. “F Of thé Popedom, obstacie of the HSW Ttailan right, as it tried—with' disgrace ant misfortun an to extend ite tuteloge over the independent pation | of Mexico, It is anid that these considerations inflauisd the mind of the Ministers and the Regent to such an exiont that by common accord they the proposition of Bla- marek, and resolved to convoke the Cortes on tho 20th inst., on which data they would read the despatches and negotia- tions held with Prince Hohenzoilorn, so that thoy might have the votation on the 25th or 29th of thé present month.

The North German Gazette of July 11, evening, commenting upon an article in the Pays, draws atieention to tie fact that the outcry for war which has burst forth fa France aas found no echo on that wide of the Rhine.

One week ago yesterday, after the late M. Prevost-Paradol liad been presented to the Preside he called upon Sevator Sumner and had an inter ue ohne ‘eee CE sms Mad aneeie view of an hour with him.

Vost-Paradol repligd ‘that there would be but one or two battles, not more than Wwe. He could not iel waich would be victorious, but the history of mo.iein we fare io Eurepe showed that there weg Re longer the ofd-fashlo#ed mode of making war that prevatied in the days of the first Napoleon, Sexator Sumner coincides with M. Paradol in this opinion. Ile sas fis dimerent in Europe to what tt 13 in our country. Take, for. instance, Grant's cam- paign in the Wilderness in Virginta, The country was new to him, and he lad to foel nis way from day to day. He has no doubt that every inch of ground on both sides of the Rhine is as familiar to the leaders of the French and Prussian armies as the playground of their boyhood. They had maps of every part of the country, showing every stream and every clump of trees. Mr. Sumner thinks that at the first outset the available power of the con- tending forces will be against each otler, and that the battle will be decisive, Of the result he has no idea, but he thinks there never were two men more equally matched in point of diplomacy ‘and State craft than Napoleon and Bismarck, ‘The latter he regards a3 the real head of the Prussian government, and a8 the power behind the throne greater than the throne itself, Speaking of Bismarck, Mr. Sumner said it was a curious fact bow intimate Bismarck was with Mr. Motiey, ‘they Were educated togetier at the college at Gottingen, and had been companions in many a lark. On one occasion they were both Picked up in the streets at night and locked up by the ‘ruard, When Bismarck went to Vienna, alter the war with Austria, as his own Minister, the frat thing he dil was to seek Mr. Motley and dine with him“ tuformally, At the tme this creatod no litle uneasiness in the diplomatic circles of Europe. It was geverally regarded as an indication of some alliance between the United States and Prussia, but it Was nothing more than @ renewai of old (riend- ship between cwo scloolmates, Owing to'the probable short period during which the war would continue Mr, Sumner has no ‘dea that England will be drawn into ft, or, indeed, any otier European Powers but France aad Prussia. Some of the sinuler Powers, like Denmark, may possibly become involved, but Russia, Englaud, and even Austria will probably keep clear. If Napoleon is worsted, Mr. Sumner thinks it willend nis dynasty, and that iis family whi become (umitives {2 Burope, just as he himaeil Zeitung, that ihe Prussian Mmister for Foretgn Af- fairs would not, in counection with the candidacy for the Spaniso throne, incur obligations that might, suivequently have to be we omed with tid sword and witht invga, the Nord {f 4 position to de nance with tug Ini 2 im (Cross) Gazelle says;—France at ens Spain if the Cortes elect Prince Leopold and Prussia if the latter allow him to ascend the throne. M, Gllivier has appealed. to Europe's ap- proval of France’s deferice Of her legitimate righis, and he opposes the election of a Honenzoilern rince as couwary to these legitimate rights. This fn plies that France possesses sovereign powers over Spain. She is certainly the only European Siate that pretends to instal @ King in Spain. A mail telegram from Berlin, dated July 11, re- ports thus:— ‘Tie Foreign Office has forwarded a communtes tion to the representatives of the North German Con- tederation in Germany, stating that the allied gov- ernments, aud especially the government of Prus- sia, have hitherto, one and all, refrained and will continue to retrain from every interference in the selection of a King of Spain, or in the eventual ac- ceptance or reftagat on the part of any of the candt- dates, Itis added that the German governments act thus, because they have always regarded and treated the matter as one solely concerning Spain and the selected candidate, and because such is the course which respect for the independence of Spain naturally implies. ‘the note concludes by stating that these views were already known to tne French government, but that explanatory and confidential Uiterances iM reference to the affair had been pre- veuied by the tone which the French Minister had assumed (rom the beginning.
