FRIDAY AUGUST 5th 1870.
THE EUROPEAN WAR.
Though at the time of writing, 'we .have
no intelligence of any engagement, we oitine
that a peacable settlement between France
and Preassia is something beyond the range
of the most hopeful, and we are prepared
to hear, at any moment, of one of the most
sanguinary battles that the world ever. saw.
The armies, now confronting each other on
the Rhine, number, in all, it is said, about,
700,000 men -400,000 French and' 300,000
Prussians That a 'conflict ,between two
such immense armies as those,equipped with.
every modern device for •destruction, will
result in almost unparalleled -disaster to
one, if not both, is self evident However,
between the strength, valor and discipline
of the contending armies, and the known
skill, and probable bravery of their respec-
tive officers, there is so little disparity;that
to speculate upon the issed -of the impend-
ing engagement, would be, to say the least,
vain. Doubtless, it was the primary inten-
tion of France to take advantage of the want
of thorough preparation on the part of her
opponent to rush an immense force across
the border, into Rhenish Prussia, where, if
anywhere, there existed the least feeling
of disloyalty. France, however, was too
tardy to successfully early out the strategy.
The oo ost loyal and devoted feelings, every -
here, now exist in south Germany, and
russia has etrongly garrisoned the entire
front;.and as matters now stand, we need
• not expect an engagement till such time as
the offensive army is on the best fighting
footing, possible.
That Napoleon would,. not lon.g since,
have foregone his decision to "'fight," could
he have done so without too mueh humilia-
tion, is sufficiently attested by his interro-
gation to Prussia, through a foreign power,
on what terms peace could be obtained, and
to Which inquiry Prussia returned the sig-
nificant answer, "It is too late." To believe
that he was prompted by any of the nobler
seiatinaents of humanity fit so doing,reciuires
more generosityth an we can entertain towards
him. Rather are we inclined to attribute
it to a, doubt, aye, a dread. Fearful of the
fidelity of his own son, even to the extent
of refusing him a command, is it to be won-
dered at, that the reticent Napoleon should
prefer, after having sufficiently distracted
the attention of his own people, from their
home difficulties, by a declaration of war,
to obtain a re -lease of the French throne, to
content himself therewith, to running the
great risk, by venturing into war; of the
overthrow of his dynasty 11
As subjects of Great Britain the practi-
cal problem to us is the attitude she will as-
sume, or maintain. Mr. Gladstone says :
"While England will observe a strict neu-
trality, she will, at the same time, prepare
for -the worst.", Had not the rumored se-
cret treaty given affairs such a complicated
feature, there would have been no reason
to expea that Britain would have become
in any way involved, so long as Belgium
and Holland were unmolested. As it is,
however, matters are differently shaped.
The existence of such al treaty would be
sufficient grounds for a general 'uprising of
the remainder of Western Europe, in °pp-
sition to all nations that could be parties to
such a scheme of spoliation, as this is assum-
ed to be. That France is responsible, there
is scarcely room. for a'doubt, and that Prus-
sia is 'wholly tblameless, is something that
she has yet to show. So important a _mat-
ter does the Thitish Government consider
it, that a formal explanation has been de-
manded from both France end Prussia.

"of the Canadian. Government, has granted
"a general amnesty to the parties connect-
` " ed with the rebellion at Red River."

ment that can recommend unconditional
pardon to such blood -thirsty scoundrels as
Riel and his accessories, consist? That •a

have refused to serve under such

THE EUROPEAN WAR.
(Telegraphic Dispatches.)
• London, July 27.—The Times of to -day
maintains that its publication of the propo-
sed secret treaty between France and Prus-
sia had one good effect; it has seemed the
neutrality of Belgium, which, without warn-
• ing, would have been liable to violation at
any moment.
London, July 27.—M. 011ivier in a let-
ter to a friend here denies negotiation by
France of alleged secret treaty with Prus-
sia. The French Minister of Foreign Af-
fairs positively denies that France has en-
tertained the idea of annexing Belgium.
London, July 27.—France inquired thio'
Russia on what conditions peace, might be
made. Prussia's reply to Russia was em-
bodied in four words, "It is too late."
Paris. July 27. --There is a rumor of an
engagement yesterday in which 30 Germans
were killed and 80 made prisoners, without
loss to the French. No details of the fight
or confirmation of the report have been re-
ceived.
cent pieces are now in circulation; and it
may be pretty safely said that a worse spe-
cimen of coinage never issued from the Roy-
al Mint. It is eclipsed by the ordinary
medals given as prizes by our common
echools The side on which Her Majesty's
-
profiler is displayed, has nothing whatever
to entitle it to praise. The profile is so
slightly in relief as to be almost level with
the surface, and it will not be long before
the pro -file will be worn down or rendered
next to undistinguishable. On the reverse
the design is both tasteless and clumsily
executed. A wreath, intended, it is to be
supposed, to repreeent maple leaves, enclos-
es the designation—"25 cents-1870."—
The leaves are frightfully blurred, and the
figures 1870 are scarcely legible. The tra-
ditional beairter is absent, the animal, doubt-
less, not coming within the knowledge of
the artist of the Royal -mint; and thus be-
ina saved from caricature. The millina of
the coin is bad, the' edge having much ° of
the appearance and feel of a diminutive cog-
wheel, with a sharp, projecting rim on eith-
er side. In the course of a feW months the
designation "25 cents, 1870," is sure to be
obliterated, arid. in that case the result will
be, to the community itt general, great an-
noyance and sometimes considerable loss ;
for the distinctien betreen the 25 cent and
20 cent pieceeaiill often be imperceptible
In_ every respect the new coin .i.s. discredit-
able both to the Royal Mint ahd to the
Dominion in which the 25 cent piece is in-
tended to circulate. The difference be-
tween it and the shin -plaster is, after all,
very slight. The oneis as ugly as the- oth-
er; and while the shin -plaster was liable to
be torn, the new °"button," is, liable, on ac-
count of its defects of workmanship, to pass
in a few months at five, cents below its os-
tensible value. The only good point about
the new coin is, according to the calculation
of Mi. Cornell, jeweller, that it is about
ten per cent better silver than that employ -
in the American coinage.—Globe.
ST. PAUL, Minn., July 27.—A letter
from. Pembina -dated the 16th, says: In-
formation considered entirely, reliable has
reached us that the 131ackfeet Indians have
taken Fort Carrollton, one of the Hudson
Bay Company's forts on the south branch
of the Saskatchewaia, and that Mr. McDon-
ald, the officer in' charge, is among the
slain, Forts Bell and Edmonton have
been attacked, and other forts of the Com-
pany are threatened. Capt. Harbuck's
command, company K., twentieth regiment,
U. S. infantry, had just arrived at St. Jo-
seph and joined Co]. Wheaton's command,
which ie now encamped on the .Military re-
servations near Perabina. Thetwriter goee
on to say that the Indians are rapidly
concentrating below Fort Geary, and grave
apprehensions of trouble are felt by the
people of the settlement. They are no
doubt loyal Indians heretofore reported as
gathering to receive the new Administra-
tion.

Count Benedetti's autograph in the secret
treaty is visible to all callers at the Foreign
Office.

German Confederation is expected, demon-
strating the authentieity of the treaty and
reciting other similar- overtures from the

A despatch Mtn St. Petersburg says the
people there are furious because Prussia in-
tercepts the French and English journals.
London, July 28.—Count Von Bismarck
in o despatch to the North- German Ambas-
sador to England, confirms the Ituthenticity
of the secret treaty publishedin the London
Times and says that since 1866 France has
incessantly tempted Prussia with offers of
territorial agglrandizement at the expense of
Belgium and South Germany. He is con-
fident that France will not obtain any en-
largement of territory- even by fighting for
it, and says that if the disclosure made by
the Times had been withheld,France,though
fully armed, would have repeated her offer
of peace at the cost of the extinction of. the
Kingdom of Belgium.
London, July 28, midnight.--Eterything
indicates that an important engagement
must take place within three days. ° .The
Prussians are concentrating between Treves
and Mersig, on the river Saar. They have
400,000 men, and rather too much cavalry,
more than they can find forage for. The op-
posing force of the French numbers about
300,000.
Great excitement has been caused in the
Danubian principalities by the breaking out

and thee the pew treaty stipulates that, in
case of certain eventualities, France is to
pay Italy sixty millions of francs and leave
her free to make Rome the capital of the

understood,. will soon be produced.
London, July 29th.—Gen Sheriden is re-
ported as .having intended coming from
America, but was refused leave to accompa-
ny the army.
A great battle is imminent on French
soil. Two thousand men have been contin.-
uously strengthening the fortifications of
Mayence since war has been declared. These
fortifications were incapable of resisting -a
sudden attack a fortnight ago, but now tley
could stand a seige, and may serve as a base
for offensive operations. •
The French fleet have arrived at Copen-

ST. PAUL, Minn., July 28.—A !trader
from Fort Garry, July 1.7th, reports that
the Blackteet Indians, in the vicinity of
Fort Carlton, were becoming,. troublesome.
They had taken a quantity of goods and
property belonging to traders there and
threatened others. The Fort had not been
attacked or captured, as heretofore reported'
but the officer in charge was alarmed for its
safety. Considerable fighting was going on
between theilladcfeet, Sioux and Piegans.

From orders recently issued from the War
Office, it is believed that it is intended to
ask Russia to join England in placing an
army in Belguim, for the protection of
that country.
Paris, July 30.—It is believed that the
French troops now in Rome will all be in
France by the 10th August.
M. 011ivier, Prime Minister, had an in-
terview with the principal editors of Paris,
during which he explained the position of
the Government on the eeveral questions
relating to Prussia. He gave some expla-
nation of a secret treaty project that Bene-
detti had previously given, relative to mea-
sures taken by the Cabinet some time ago
to effect a general disarmament. He said
those efforts were merely intermediatory to
those of the Earl of Clarendon for a likt
purpose.
Bismarck replied, that King William
fused absolutely to disarm.
M. 011ivier said he gave the honour of his
name and that of his colleagues that no of -
fee: was made to Prussia other than that
made by the Earl of Clarendon. On the
Roman question, M. 011ivier said it has
seemed equitable and useful to the French
Government to evacuate Rome, equitable,
beeause Italy kept her piomises ; and use-
ful, because keeping ouf promises unites us
more closely with Italy and Austria.
The Journal Officiel this morning pub-
lishes Count Benedetti's explanation of the
secret treaty affair. It is well known that
Count Bismaick made France an offer both
befdre and after the war that France should
take Belgiunt as a compensation for the ag-
grandizement of Prussia. The Emperor in
all cases declined the proposition. The very
moment the treaty of Prague was concluded
Count Bismarck again betrayed his desire
to restore the equilibrium, and made several
proposals looking to combinations affecting
the integrity of the States bordering on
France. During one of -these conversations
Count Bismarck dictated to Count Benedet-
ti this secret treaty, the poject of which
has just been:made public, and which Count
Bismarck has kept ever since. This ac-
counts for the handwriting. Count Bene-
detti gave notice of the contents of the pro-
posed treaty to the Emperor's government
at the time, but the proposttion was prompt-
ly rejected. Count Benedetti adds that the
King of Prussia was not favourable to Count
Bismarck's plans. •
The reported skirmish of the 26th gave
some idea of the comparative merits of the
needle gun andtthe Chassepot, though ow-
ing to the shortness of the affaii the test
was not complete. The Prussians commen-
ced to fire at a distance of 800 metres, and
their fire fell short by 100 metres. The
French fired. almost sinaultaneously and
some of the Prussians were killed.
French priests have been arrested on the
German frontier on a charge of sending
plans of the fortresses to the enemy.
Berlin, July 30.—The feeling against
England is still more intense, and seems,
to. be shared by people of all classes. A par-
ty of French cavalry passed the frontier
yesterday, but soon returned without accom-
plishing anything. Every able-bodied Prus-
sian, between twenty and thirty years of
age, is DOW in the ranks.
This morning the French attacked Saar-
brucken in largely superior numbers, but
were vigorously repulsed.
It is reported Prince Napoleon is obliged
to accompany the Emperor as a precaution
against his possible disloyalty after defeat.
An independent command is denied him.
Gen. LeBceuf positively refused to give hint
a division.
• The Fenian Trials."
WINDSOR, Conn, July 30.--Capt.Mon-
ahan was arraigned before the 'United
States Circuit Court to -day. for violating
neutrality laws, and pleaded guilty.
General 9'Neill was then placed in, the
dock and azked by the Couit if he had
anything to .say why the sentence of the
court should not be passed npon. him. The
prisoner pleaded his services in behalf of
his adopted country as a reason why his
sentence should be light. He was then
sentenced to the State prison, in Windsor,
for two years, and to pay a fine of ten dol-
lars. Col. John H. Brown was then sen-
tenced to nine month's imprisonment, and
to pay a fine of five dollars. It appeared
that Capt. Monahan had no command at
the front, and that he was not actually en-
gaged. entenced to six months and fined
one &liar. -
The farmers along Bear Creek have suf-
fered heavy losses by the overflowing of
their lands—destroying clops and carrying
away fences—by the flood on the 18th ult.
Mr. Coutts had from. six to eight acres of
hay swept away and destroyed after being
cut, and Messrs. Duncan Grant, and in fact
all that had crops on the flats, suffered more
or less from the flood. The Sarnia Ceicnadi-
an says the large quantities of oil 'and re-
fuse from the wells and refineriee about Pe-
trolia make the grievance much worse, as
wherever the creek overflows some of the
oleaginous substance is deposited, which is
as much abhorred by everything in the ani-
mal and vegetable kingdoms as a vacuum is
by nature.

London, August 1.—The preparations
for war on the part of Prussia are being
carried on with great alacrity. Trench -es
have been opened two leagues from Celognet
An entrenched camp has been established
ia the triangleformed by Cologne Coblentz:
an Treves. The fine park in Cologne and
the magnificent chateau of the banker A.p-
penheim, have been razed. Mayence is in
a state of siege, and is occupied by 25,000,
soldiers Trenches have been opened in
front ot the city, and persons unable to pro-
vide themselves with six weeks' provisions
have been notified to depart. A large force
is encamped on the heights of St Hubert7
overlooking the valley of the Nolte, -which
will protect the important group of coal
mines at that place and command the junc-
ture of the railroads from Bingerbruck to.
Landau. Large rafts are descending the
Rhine at all hours with provisions and mili-
tary munitions between Mayence and Cob-
lentz, and a formidable amount of war ma-
terial, and an immense 'Indy of troops have
been collected. - In consequence of new in-
structions having been issued from the War
Officethere will be an entire change of
tactics Henceforth there will be no open
campaign. The tactics will be :similar to
those hitherto employed, in a seige, viz., an
