WNapoleon, Bismarck and the Se- cret Treaty. FRANCE. ‘Despatches from ti Ficld=The King of Prussia with the Army at Mayence~Call ‘for Retnforcementsa—A Movement to Lux- embarg—Tho Empress as Hoad of the State—The Bourso Firmer—The ‘Secret Treaty?’—Patriotism and Prayer. Paris, July 27—5 P. M. La Liberté has the following information from ‘the scone of war:— “The Prussians have evacuated Wasserbillig, and at Treves they have only two squadrons of cavalry. ‘Whey are concentrating at Mayence, where King ‘William arrtved last night.” » ‘There isa rumor of an engagement yesterday, in ‘which thirty Germans were killed and eighty were Made prisoners, without loss to the French. No details of the fight or confirmation of the re- ‘port have yet been received, The Departments of Moselle, Haut Rhin and Bas Bhin havo been declared in a state of siege. ‘The Journal Opole! publishes a decree calling out for active duty 90,000 men of the contingent of 1869. ‘The Freuch yesterday violated the neutrality of Luxemburg. A party numbering 100 men from Slerck crossed to Schienge singing the ‘‘Marseti- Tatse.” d The Gaulots repeats the rumor thatan American “legion of 690 men is organizing here under the com- mand of a French oficer, The report is still re- @arded as doubtful. The Bourse grows stronger. 3:30 P, M. The city evening journals report that a Prus- elan Major was arrested in Metz and released on 20,000 francs bail. The Journat Opictel of to-day says:—“We have ‘intelligence that a rumor has been circulated on the ‘other side of the Rhine that the Emperor has given \orders that prisoners of war will be treated with the jAtmost rigor, and placed outside the protection of | ithe law of nations. This report is absurd. So far is {t from being true, that on the contrary the Emperor flcsires to treat prisouers with the greatest hu- ~manity.” The Journal Ofictel this morning publishes a de- ree conferring the title of Regent on the Empress, | with authority to exercise the functions of that office uring the Emperor's absence irom the capital. The administration will be guided tn 18 policy by instruc- ‘tons and orders prepared by the Emperor, and to ‘be inscribed in the book of State and made known 4n general orders of the service. The Ministry will jhave cognizance of the Emperor’s wishes and tn- wtructions, beyond which the Empress will not pe -Guthorized to proceed in any case in her capacity of a iby The Empress will preside at the Ministerial Coun- clls, but will not have power to promulgate any ‘other laws than those now pending before tne Legia- ‘lative Chambers. Another decree names a commission, under the ‘presidency of the Empress, to distribute to the army the gifts in furtherance of the war tendered by pa- ‘triotio persons. { Actroular from M. Ollivier, citing a discussion of the war question in the Corps Législatif, says:—“The journals are only forbidden to mention movements of troops or preparations for active operations. They have the right to speak of events of the war in the | ight of accomplished facts.” The Journal adds, as @ matter of duty, a reminder to all persons that “by | Ahe terms of article seventy-seven of the penal code | any person giving intelligenve to the euemy of move- menis of the army, or giving aid in money to hos- | tile forces, will be punishabie with death.” The Journal also reminds non-political newspapers | What they are not entitled to print anything relative to the war. Another circular from the Prime Minister calls ‘upon the bishops to offer public prayers, to placo France, her chief and the nobie infant, who goes to battle at such tender age, underx the protection of Him who holds in his hands the fate of battles and the destinies of peoples. At the time when our heroic army ison the march let us ask God to biess our arms and to grant that o glorious and durable peace may quickly follow the grie‘s and sacrifices of war. All the French newspaper organs represent that the secret treaty was not serlously proposed by | ‘France, but rather as an attempt to test Bismarck. The Journal Opictel has an article this morning on ‘the pretended treaty,” recently published in the London Times, having for its object the acquisition of Luxemburg and Belgium by France, on the con- dition of France not opposing the union of the | States of the Soutirgrith the North German €onfed- eration. At the treaty of Prague in 1866 several con- ferences were held at Berlin between Count Von Bismarck and the French Ambassador Rentes, 65f. 95c. at on the eudjeos of a project of alliance. Some of the ideas set forth ia the Zimes Were then advanced; but the French govern- ment never had any knowledge of the project de- ®cribed, and, as far as the prapositions which were Aisoussed at the interviews mentioned, the Emperor rejected them. It can escape no one “that the pub- Ucation on the part of the London Times ts designed morely to induence public opinion tn England.” AFroncn military correspondent writes that the famous citadel of Antwerp 18 uninhabitaple and in- defensibie, % The Emperor, on bis departure for the frontter, ‘Will issue a proclamation exhorting Frenchmen to Maintain union, order and tranquillity during the war, PRUSSIA. Napoleon and Bismarck Before the War=The Secret Treaty~Explanations Promised. BeRLIN, July 27, 1870. The Correspondence of to-day: prints the text of the treaty tne French Emperor offered the Count Yon Bismarck. In its comments the Correspondence says that tho Emperor “waived all opposition to German unifica- tion provided Prussia wouid abet the French acqui- sition of Luxemburg and the reduction of Belgium.” The minutes of the Escrow treaty in Benedettt's ‘autograph are preserved in the War Office at Berlin. Before the war of 1868, between Prussia and Aus: tris, Napoleon had offered to ald vrassia with 900,000 mien with which to attack Austria, as an equivalent for a cession to France of the territory on the leftbank of the Rhine. Bismarck’s newspaper organ in Berlin, in an Issue published on Tuesday night, Promises again On the part of Prussia mnmediate explanation rela- | | quite | those qualifications of impecuniosity and vo! tive to the existence of the al sed Franco-Prussian treaty. The Duke of Nassau having been 1,\Vited by Napo- leon vo Join the French army, replies «baat his ser- vices are vledged to Prussia,’ “4 ENGLAND. France Again Defed by Prussia=‘Too Late” for Peace. Lonpon, July 37—5 P. M. Advices from the Continent received in this city to-day state that Frence has already inquired through the Emperor of Russia, in Berlin, on woat conditions peace might be made with Pruss'a. The Prusetan reply to Russia was embodied in four words:—“It 1s too late.” The Secret Treaty and Ite Effects—Belgtum -Made Secure. Lonpon, July 27, 1870. The Times to-day maintains that its publication of the proposed secret treaty between France and Prussia has had one good effect: it has secured the neutrality of Belgium, whica, “without the warn- ing, would have been liable to violation at any mo- ment.” The English Blue Book, containing correspon- dence relative to the candidature of the Prince of Hohenzollern, was published this morning, but tt adds no new facts to the history of the case. The upshot of the correspondence is that Earl Gran- Ville, fatling to prevent war, sought, with as littie success, guarantees fdr the safety of secondary neu- tral Powers, An absurd rumor ts afloat that tne Emperor has quietly left Paria to join the fleet, deeming it the surest and shortest way of reaching Berlin, where he expectst be on the 15th of August, his /ete day. M. Oilivier, in a letter to a friend hero, denies the Regotlation by France of the alieged secret treaty with Prussia, The French Minister of Foreign Affairs posttively denies that France has entertained the idea of an- nexing Belgium, SPAIN. Cabinet Demands on France=Carlism and the War. Lonpon, July 27, 1870.

Oficial notification has been received wy the Porte from Vienna of Austria’s neutrality. THE WAR FZELING IN THE CliY. Excitement Over the Yacht Race Paramount to the Belligerent Furore—The German Consulate and the “Vaterland Recruits?” — Franz Sigel Going to Germany—He May Take a Hand in the Fight for “William Rex.” Deeply interesting and exciting as are the events transpiring on the other side of the Atlantic, where two poweriul despots are arraying immense hosts of hot but misguided people to carnage on the banks of the poetic river Rhine, to stem the rising tide of popular wrath and give them a new lease of power to rule and ruin, the hubpub white has pre- valled ever since the annguncement of the breaking out of hostilities between Franco and Prussia was sensibly diminished yesterday, The arrival of the English and American yachts off the Nghtshtp at Sandy Hook made most people for- get the war In Europe and all aboutit, It was only among the Germans and French in our midst that any excitement was apparent, and even these failed not by their conduct to give expression to the nattve feeling that matters of local interest were deserving of more notice than those which solely concerned foreign governments and peoples. It has become tiresome to chronicie the ravings of the pro-Prus- sians and the pro-French in this city. There ts noth- ing very new to be said for elther party. French- men hold to their opinions as to the justice of the claims of Frauce; Prussians are stil believers in the Vaterland, as _ repre- sented 0; “Willlam Rex’? and Bismarck, and not all the lager of the Bowery could wash away the fouundation of their faith. And that ig all, The talk of movements. of recruits tor one or other of the belligerents 1s so much paper. The consuls of France and PI are too wise to brin, their governiueats into conflict with the United States at this juncture by any such violation of our noutrality laws as the enlistment and shipment of recruits Jor the armies on the Rhine would be, and | RO doubt they will be very careful in their conduct. A sensational account of strange domgs at the oilice of the North German Cousul General appeared in an pyening: Rapee yesterday, but from the gross amount of chait it contained but few graius of Wheat could be extracied when an_ ex- amination of the facts was made. It 1s true that quite a number of people repaired to the office of the North German Consul to ascertain what means could be furntsied them to reach Germany. Ouly twelve were found to possens untary disposition to do military duty, that they were prom- ised the required means to take them to Europe, Bat from the West, especially Chicago and St. Louis, Consuls Clausentus aod Barth write of dumerous appications, bat each of thein received instructions ame fi, as were published in the HERALD ast. $s currenuy reported that the ‘German Patri- otic Ald Cormmitiee” desire to send General rang Sigei to Germany as their agent to see to the proper disposition of the funds Collected here. General Sigel, 60 he says, as no objection to accept the mnts- | gion, and will endeavor to 1ulfiil its duties co the best of his ability, at the same time, in cage any offer of a military command be made him there, he desires not to be bound to reject it if his incilaation shouid prompt him to accept.

Boston, July 27, 1870. Another destructive fire occurred in this city this forenoon, this time tn the Highland district, on Hun- neman street, between Harrison avenue and Wash- ington street, The fire, it appears. caught in Joseph Nickerson & Co,’s ropewalk, on Hunneman street, and from the inflammable nature of the materials used s00n “genes the entire length of the walk, which ex- tended midway between Harrison avenue and Reed street, and was between five and six hundred feet in length. A considerable amount of hemp and cor- dage was tn this building, which was a total loss, as weil as the machinery, tLe fire spreading so rapidly that lt was with great dilliculty some of the opera- tives (twelve or fifteen in number) could escape with thetr lives. The fire communicated to adjoining houses which addeit to the conflagration and caused the fire to spread to the stone cordage factory of the same firm, situated on the south side of Hunneman street. In the up, story of the factory was stored a large amount of Maniia and other hemp and cordage, which took fire and burned with such fury as to defy the etforts of the firemen to put it out before burning through the rool. It was, however, mastered after a time without penetrating to the lowér story, where most of the expensive machinery was, whicy will oe be damaged hy water. The damage to the Nickerson Company ts $70,000 and the insurance $32,760. If it were not jor the intervention of this stone factory It is probable the fire would have swept south and West through the wooden house district in that direction, Thret blocks of tenement houses of the aggregate value of | ogy were also destroyed.

Two of the tenement blocks were owned by Dennis Mullane and the other by Wiliam scites A woman, heiptessiy sick with consumption, in one of the burning balldings, was rescued by her husband at the imuniaeut peril of his own life.
