Our Democratic contemporary the World festorlay made the following emphatic dcelaration: * We lave a sincere respect for the character and ‘Virtnes of Secretary Prien.” Now le* the World algo protest that it has ® sincere respect for the character and virtues of Journ Baxcnorr Davis, whom Mr, Fret hing selected os his assistant to be Acting Beerctary of State in his absence, and its profeesion of feith will be complete. Mr. Fisn, and Mr, Davis stand on tho same platform, ond their love for each other sur- paséés the love of Davin and JONATHAN, They stick together closer than brothers, Davis was proved four months ago by tho Legislature of Massachusetts to have beet" Vribed with $60,000 to betray and defraud his clients; and upon this any ordinary public man, whether honest himeelf or not, would instantly have expelled him from his office and his confidence, Not so Mr. Fisu. He evidently thonght bribery no offence, pro- ded a man makes by it $60,000 at a time ; and he keops Davis near Lim, in insolent de- fiance of pul lic epinion; and when he has occesion to leave Washington for hia sum- mer pleasures, he puts Davrs forward beforo all the workl as Acting Secretary of State. ‘Therefore, lot no man who wiehes to publish his admiration for Fist omit to add that he sdmires Davis also. Besides, are they not both interested in the scheme to make six- wen millions by buying Cube—Davis as a direct perticypant, and Fis through the gy pected share of his son-in-law y Wee etren? It scems there is som diMeulty in finding the right man to suceeed Mr. Fie dis Bee- retary State. Why ne » Davis? It je true he made only $60,000 by his Massa. ehusotte Driber, and that is ayot gay Te-lagge f sum in these days of prevemts and “of vx thttva ganecs. But make him Secretary, and he will think nothing of getting Dribes of a quarter or halt a million at a time. Con anything more splendid be woshed for? — The Theatre of the War, Goud maps of Europe can be found in every hduselold—overy school atlas con tains them—anil all who wish to follow the developments of the war with intelliges qill do well to gather from the mapa clear idea of the general features of thecountry in which the fighting is to take place, In studying the map, tho first object to be-exam. ined is the boundary line bet ween France aud Germany ; and its most obvious peculiarity ie that near Lautorburg it forms almost a rightangle. Ono side of the angle is mark- ed by the Rhine ; the other isa conventional Une from east to west. The agiregate length of these two si less than 300 miles, Luxemburg aud Belgium on tho northwest, and Switzerland on the southeast, are neutral territories, and do not come into ponsideration at present, as their neutrality Wi doubtless be respected, at least during Mee earlier stages of the conilict. The Rhino riscs among the glaciers of the @entral Alps, flows north to the deop lake of Constance, and thenco pursiucs @ westerly course as far as Basel, the capital city of the Bwies canton of the samoname, From Basel J equal genius is doubtful. | ing Romo the capital of Italy It flows north by east to the great German fortress of Meutz, or Mayvnce, in Hesse. This part of iis valley is a fertile, low plain, sbout thirty miles wide, which is bounded on both sides by mountains and elevated plateaus, on the east by the Biaek and Olen Foroats, and on the we.t by the Voges and Haardt mountains, At Bingen, a fow miles west of Mentz, the @line changes its course to the northwest, iraversing a decply-cut gorge of the Rhenish plateau, It is this part of its valley whieh is Bo famous for its pier whose vine cla que beauty, aud 1 Ws, turrote] castles, and hoary ruins attract s» many tourists froin all parts of the world, From Basel to the little river Lauter tha Rhine flows between France and the grand duchy of Baden, For the noxt 850 miles it @ows through German territory, having the Bavarian Palatinate, a small part of Hesse, and a large part of the Prugs'an Rhine Proy- inee upon its western bank “he afflucats of the Rhine, whose banks will soon resound with tho din of battle, ar the Moselle and tho Nabe. ‘The Moselle risus oo the western flanks of the Vosges moun- tains, flows throngh the hilly region of portheasicrn France, then separates. Luxem- burg froin Prussia, and at last traverses a very tortuous and devply cut valley. It reecive the Sarre, or Saar, which, rising in France, Hows through southwestern Prussia, ‘The Naho rises in Prussia, and flows into the Rhine at Bingen. Ite tributary, the Glan, flows through @ valley which opens into the valley of the Saar, We may safely aasume that the first battle of the war will be fought near the north. eastern boundary of France, somewhere be: tween the valley of the Rhine and the valley of the Moselle, The Prussian forces aro massed on the north, the French on the south of this line, Each army has in its roar @ Berics of strongly fortified places, with which several lines of railway maintain an ensy and rapid communication, The country between the Rhine and the Moscle consists of (wo belts of hilly plateaus, which are separated by tho valley of the upper Saar, the Glan, and the lower Nahe montioned above. ‘The eastern belt includss the Maardt and the northern continuation of the Vorges mountains, It is covered with douse forests. and intersected ip aa irregular manner by numerous yorges and valldye, whieh would seriously impede military oper ations, A railroad crosses it on Gorrtian #oH, connecting Mannheim and Speyer on the Rhine, by way of Kaiserslautern, with Saarbriick on the Saar, Another railrond crosses on French soi) from Strasburg to Sarrebourg. The western belt includes clovated ridges and broken table lands, and, althongh easier of access than the eastern, would make the march of an invading force extremely difll cult and fatiguing. A ratlroad from Bingen follows the volley of the Nahe, and loads to Saarbriick on the Saar,and thence to Metz ‘on tha Moselle, It i most likely thot the operations at the opening of the campaign will be conducted 8 abovo described. ‘The broken ground enclosing them will afford excellent positions for defence and offence. The country is such ae to give ample oppor- tunity to the commanders to carry out bril- liant manq@uvres ; aud it remains to be seen which of the two pariics will exhibit the greater talont, promptness, and celority, Franee has along her northwestern fron- tier a series of secondary fortrosses, which are not very iniportant, except as points of support in a position occupied by tho army. Such are Lauterbourg and Welssenbourg east of the Voages mountains, and ‘Thion- ville on the Moselle, Further inland are two fortified places of the firet rank, Straa- burg on the Rhine, and Metz on the Mo. selle, neither of which would be passed by an invading army without absorbing at least a corps of observation Tho only Prussian fortress near the fron tier is Saarlouis on the Saar, which material- ly aids in the defence of this valley. On the Rhine there are several fortresses of the first rank, two of which are at present con- tidercd by good authorities impregnable— Mentz, opposite the mouth of the Main river, and Ehrenbreitstein, opposite the mouth of the Moselle, near the city of Coblenta. ‘Tho plans of operation are of course kuown only to the commanders and their stall officers, aud all speculations regarding them are futile. Prominent officers of both armies have for years past studied the ground and its advantages for attack or defence. The strateyical design adopted by either side has een carefully matured, and it is not Itkely that grave errors will bo committed.

But what is there in the present Bona PARTE to create any such enthusiasm? Nothing, except that he bears an illustrious nate, and that the French army, one of the best disciplined ever known, is fuiihful to his orders, His bungling policy has long # nce revealed to humiliated France that he is but a spurious nephew of his uncle. His Crimean war wes a great blunder, for Ruesia is now more powerful than ever, and Turkey continues to be nothing but a vassal of Eng: land, His Italian war gave him the prestige of a limited suceees; but even then he left the work of Venetian emancipation tobe com plted by Prussia, and stopped short of mak ‘That country, ck Le counted on for an ally, if not a vassal, now myards him with hatred, and will leave him in tie lurch at the last tatal hour of his carcer, ‘The fortunes of the First Narorwos turned at Beregina ; but the gloom of that disaster was relieved by the grandeur of the con eption which aimed to strike a deathblow at Russia, The fortunes of the Third Na- YOLEON turned in Mexico ; and the absurdity of that enterprise was redeemed by nothing. whatever.

In this communication Mr, Frsit also intimates a hope that the North German Government, as well as the other great powers of the world, may presently como to a determination to is sue No commissions to privateers which will empower them to capture trading: vessels, or to interrupt the general course of commerce carried on in the bottoms of powers.

Privateers are upon the ocean pre- cisely what volunteer troops arc upon tho land; and no one who witnessed the mag. nificent achievements of the volunteer army of the United States during the rebellion can Le in favor of depriving this country of an arm which would prove so potent in the case of a foreign war.

The reply of Messrs, Dasenberry, Hickey & Co, was that Liey were ready to do the work at the tipn- lated figure, provided they could receive the pay. ment therefor direct from tie Commissioners ; but if the money was to be first bandied by another contractor, they would unquestiouavly object to doing any portion of the work. ‘The Commissioners to enrry out the improvement made a requisition upon Supervisor Flagg of Yon. ker for’ bonds amounting to €60000, and npor Supervisor Masterton of Bast Chester for au issue of bonds amounting to $20,000, ‘The Supervisors called together the town officers, Who refused to istue the bonds, and authorized tuem to employ cou to defend thom in their coarse. ‘They say that according to the arrangement as it Was proposed to ‘be carried out, Moore Dockert would have pocketed $95,000 without vatiing & Pick into the ground, ‘They accused Mr. Edward Do Witt of being at the bottom of the whole scheme, and allege that the avenues will be perfectly useless, sre only tutended to benedt mropesty, hod. ers alonz the ling of tue roads (of which Mr. De With ts the Targes!) at the expense of the villages of Yonkers and Bast Chester, Supervisor Fiagg, they say, acientions man, and rerolute when be thin! if .
