The London Economist has a strong article in favor of peace. The very object of the war, the article says, was to sustain the principle of German unity against the objections of France.

-A BRAVE GIRL.—From a gentleman who attencd the Fair at Paris, last week, we learn the particulars of an affair that took place near that town, in which a country girl acted with commendable bravery. A showman, whose name we did not learn, secured a partial acquaintance with the girl, and asked her to take a ride in a buggy. The chap having the appearance of h, gentleman, she consented and they took a drive of a few miles from Paris. The rascal then stopped the horse and proposed that they get out of the buggy to shake the dust off. She consented, and he at once attempted to take improper liberties with her. She, like a sensible girl, at once took up a club, and commenced beating the fellow over the head at a furious rate. She applied the club with such vigor that the fellow begged for mercy, but she did not desist until she had satislied herself for the gross insult offered. It is said that she inflicted several severe wounds on the head of the villain. He drove back to Paris with his head bandaged up, while the young girl walked back, a distance of about two miles. If she had broken the fellow's head, it would have been no more than" he de served.
DESTRUCTIVE CONFLAGRATION IN ROCKYILLE.
One Hundred and Sixty Thousand Dollars Worth of Property Destroyed.
Tbe 'Work of an Incendiary.
On Saturday night, as "we are informed by a gentleman who arrived in this city to-day from Rock ville, a most destructive conflagration took place in that town, which resulted in the destruction of at least $130,000 worth of property.
The fire originated in the jewelry store of Cal. Thomas, north side of the public square, and was no doubt the work of an incendary. It was discovered at about 10 o'clock at night, and at once burst forth with such fury, that all hopes of saving the building were at once despaired of. The people were out in force, and used every exertion in their powerto stay the ravages of the devouring flames, ut what could be done with no fire department organized, nor engines of any kind to work with. Seeing that it was impossible to check the flames, which began to spread to other buildings adjoining, an attempt was made telegraph to this city for an engine, but it was discovered that the telegraph wire had been cut, no doubt by accomplices of the fiend or fiends that kindled the fire. Finding that all hope of assistance from here was cut off, the citizens went to work with renewed vigor, but the fire still spread, the flames shooting high in air and "Painting hell on the sky," communicated to the buildings owned or occupied by the following named persons in rapid succession: B. W. Shackelford, Dry Goods H. Hargrave, Boots ,and Shoes Ott and McMillen, Groceries and Hardware Mrs. Cole, Milliner Stark Bros., Druggist E. J. Hughes, Dry Goods J. M. Cox, Stoves and Tin Ware Express Office, (American) W. Hays, Grocer G. W. Sill & & Co., Dry Goods Hannah & Green, Livery Stable Dr. H. J. Rice, Stable.
The loss of Stark Bros., it is estimated, will not fall short of $28,000, insured for $10,000. Shackleford's loss is estimated at $20,000, insured for $9,000. Hughes, loss will nor fall short of $10,000 and will probably be more. The entire loss as above stated, will not fall short of $130^000, on which there was an insurance of only $00,000, not quite one half. All efforts of the people to check the devouring element in its work of destruction, appearing to be unavailing, the citizens set to work right manfully to save the bank building, which was at the other end of the block from which the fire originated. The people climbed on top of that building, and cut away the cornice, and all the wood they could sever from it, and tore away the wooden buildings that intervened betweei^that and the fire, applied water to the roof with buckets, the only means of defense they had, and thus by concentrating their whole force on one building, saved it from destruction, though, of course, greatly damaged. But for this, the loss of property would have been much greater than it was. The fire continued to rage from the time it commenced until about half after one o'clock on Sunday morning, when the people heard with gladness the announcement that the bank building was safe, and the course of the fire had been checked. All-the buildings on the north side of the square, except the bank building, were destroyed, most of which were wooden, and of course burned like tinder. Fortunately* no lives were lost, that be learned of. Of course the greater part of the goods in the building were also destroyed, the devouring element speading so rapidly, that it was out of the question to save them. It is sincerely to be hoped the incendary may be caught, and punished as his great crime deserves to be. It is indeed a serious affair to the people of Rockville. wj-.
The impression universally prevails that Bismarck will be satisfied with nothing less than concluding peace with the German armies within the walls of Paris.

LONDON, September 17.—There was a sharp engagement yesterday on the line ot the Orleans Railroad, near Corbeil, be tvveen the advance of the Prussian left wing and a body of the Garde Mobile, supported by a detachment of the army of Paris. The Prussian cavalry was defeated on Thursday afternoon at Guignes and driven back on Melun, on the Paris and Lyons railroad, which town has been occupied in force since Wednesday by infantry and artillery. Yesterday morning a column of three divisions advanced from Melun upon Corbeil, fourteen miles from Paris with an object of destroying the flour mills and seizing the granaries at that point and to throw forward a party to cut the direct line of railroad two miles further north.
The second object was attained, but the Prussians having advanced three miles further, to Ablon, were attacked by a superior force, and, after a severe conflict were routed and compelled to retire upon their entrenchments, which they had thrown up on a hill at Juivy commanding the passage of the Orge, the bridge over which had been blown up by the French. At the same time the Prussians at Corbeil who had established themselves in the hamlet of Ris, were attacked by the French force advancing from Longumanean and Elapas. They succeeded in maintaining their positions, and during the action the extensive mill and granaries at Essvene were set on fire and burned to the ground with all their contents not previously transported to Paris.
In the attack at Ablon many villas and private residences were set on fire, and an ancient Protestant church, one of the few exempted by a reservation of the Edict of Nantes, was seriously injured.
When your special correspondent left Chartres a column of troops was moving out tarenew the attack on the Prussians at Juvessy.
The.city of Calais' and the whole of Pas j^e Calais, was this morning declared in a state of siege and under martial law.
The communication between Paris and Calais was yesterday cut between Amiens and Paris.
A detachment of Prussian^ cavalry^attacked the station at Lonjumeau, three miles from Amiens, and captured a train coming in from Brussels and burned the buildings.
Communication between Ameins and Rouen still remains open. There is a rumor from Amiens that the force under Canrobert on Monday attacked and defeated the Prussians near St. Quentin, and that an action was going on Thursday near Ferguion. It is believed that Canrobert has formed a junction with the troops from Lille, Valencienes and Arra, and is threatening the right wing of the Prussians before Paris.
LONDON, September 17.—A dispatch from Marienburg, Belgium, of the 15th, says the telegraph lines to Paris are cut, and all communication with the besieged city severed. French teams proceed through the cities of northern France to the frontier oYBelgium. The people in that part of France are downcast. They seem discouraged, and altogether unavailable as soldiers, and express sentiments of hopelessness in the cause of France. They seem to feel that a Napoleon like the first might retrieve everything but as such a leader cannot be found they desire peace. The impression universally prevails that Bismarck will be satisfied with nothing less than concluding peace with the German armies within the walls of Paris.
The Sympathy of the Belgians is very strongly in favor Of the French. It is well known that there are
ports. We ai tresses, slightest iron-clads twenty-eight ceptiou of the bines a

fighting men available in the northern French provinces, but there is no one to organize and lead them.
A correspondent with the French fleet writes that the sailors express much satisfaction at the prospect of raising^ the blockade and the indications of a* return to some point where active service may be possible. When the fleet left Cherbourg the Minister of the Navy gave a positive promise that not alcne should several armed ships follow him at brief^titeEralSilt&tigWhat was of first importance's* a fleet of transports would speedily join him, conveying 30,000 or 40,000 troops for land operations.
The promise has been broken, in both instances, and the fleet left to its own unaided resources, which were formerly sufficient to maintain a blockade of the enemies'ports. Such service is tedious and urisatisfactoy. Our station is in dangerotft waters, abounding in hidden reefs and shallows. There are no friendly lights to give warning in the night, no buoys to serve as marks for a guide by day, while we are compelled constantly to guard against surprises by the enemy, with small mesyis for retaliation in open rbidden to attack fornot do so with the of success, as heavy from twenty-three to of water, with the exchambean, which comable armanent with
comparatively small draught. But little can be done with a single ship. We might attack Kiel, but what purpose? Forts commanding the entrance are situated so high that would be almost impossible to elevate the guns sufficiently to effect anything while the ships would be exposed to a de structive downward'fire, escaping which they would encounter more formidable obstacles in the bay, which is filled with torpedoes, arid made unnavigable by the sinking of vessels, connected with chain cables, leaving only a narrow and tortuous channel, through which only the smallest craft manage to pick their way.
Under such circumstances it would be madness to attempt to penetrate far enough to bombard the town and capture a few wooden men of war. It would be apiece of senseles temerity, and proba bly result in another German triumph Hence the complete and disastrous fail ure of the French fleet in the hour of danger, notwithstanding the heavy cost to the country. There should be no fleet here, or one four times as powerful.
Mr. Thiers, after two interviews, has been definitely informed by Earl Granville that his Government positively declines to interfere in the settlement of terms for peace between Prussia and France. It is reported that there is information in the hands of the Prussian embassy in London leading to the belief that some muskets, the property of the British Government has been sold to France since the war commenced. The sale was effected though a Government agent.
PARIS, September 17.—Strasburg is nearly untenable and the inhabitants are departing.
Prussians have been seen in front of Colmar andMulhouse, marching towards Lyons.
Prussians crossed the Seine last evening, near Athis, but were beaten back. Cannonading is how heard in the direction of Biectre.
The King of Prussia refuses to recognize the Emperor or Bazaine. It is said a commission of German workmen made a protest against the war.
Victor Hugo's address to France today is exciting all classes to oppose the return of Napoleon.
The cattle plague has attacked the cattle of the Prussian army. The Ambassadors of England, Austria, Italy and Turkey have left Paris.

LONDON, September 18—10 A. M.—The Prussians advancing on Paris have appeared on the heights of Villineuve and Brunai. The press of Paris, without exception, are opposed to the restoration of the Bonapartes. The government at Tours receives assurances from every quarter that the people are arming and hastening to places of rendezvous.
BERLIN, September 17.—Considerable excitement was occasioned at Willielmsholie recently by the attempt to assassinate the French Emperor by a German apprentice. He was arrested before he could accomplish his purpose. A loaded pistol was found on his person, and he boldly declared that the bullet was designed for N apoleon.
TOURS, Sept. 17.—The fort at Vincennes was blown up yesterday by the French.
It is understood there were several minor engagements outside the fortifica-. tion at Paris yesterday.
The Constitutional Gazette and some other papers which have heretofore been published in Paris will appear in this city after to-day.
The Minister of Justice is lodged here at the residence of the Archbishop. There is a perfect understanding between which is considered the foreshadowing union of all the political parties for the national defense.
Advices received at the war department show that a great number of French ,. i-rivci" shf oU are emigrating.
Telegrams state that great activity exists with the Committee of Defense, who are enrolling a large force collected at Bordieaux and in the surrounding departments.
VIENNA, Sept. 17. The sessions of Riechsrath opened to-day. The Emperor in his speech said that while "the sanguinary war rages between the two great nations, Austria enjoys peace, and that she should now employ herself in consolidating constitutional system. He regretted Bohemia was unrepresented, though it was through no lack of patriotism. The present task before the legislature is to reconcile the separate kingdoms with the great strength of Empire and provide for the choice of delegations to regulate the regulations of the church and State which have been unsettled by the abolition of concordat and arrange for the reorganization and reform of the system of revenue.

TOURS, September 19.—The corps* diplomatique arrived to-day. A great number of volunteers lett Tours this morning,.going northward.
A French corps of eighty thousand men under General Ducrat, occupy the woods of Clermont and Mendon.
There was a fight yesterday between the Prussians and three regiments of the line,7 assisted by some battalions of the Mobile Guard and a'batteiy of artillery. The result was favorable to. the French, the enemy falling back.
LONDON, September 18.—Latest advices from Paris state that the Pope and the Diplomatic Corps have taken refuge in the Castle of St. Angelo, and the capitulation of the city is hourly expected.-
It is said that Bismarck asked an explanation from the Belgian government for having allowed twelve thousand French soldiers to, cross her territory unchecked. In this connection, the last number of the Independent Beige says it feats that Belgium has already leaned too sharply to Prussia-.
COLOGNE, Kept. J7 —The Gaa^t&^says there are now befots^ Straibtifg 18 ^bdt-
teries of mortars a»d rifled cannon. These are collectively more than seven thousand shots into the city every day Thirty car loads of minutions of war, including 8,000 quintals of iron ore are thus consumed daily. The Gazette then goes on to show how immense must be the expense of beseiging Paris. If a proportionate outlay be required, then five times these resources must be exhausted.
FLORENCE, September 18.—An official dispatch from the headquarters of the Italian army of occupation in the Roman territory of Monte Rotunda, dated the 17th, says Baron Von Arnim came to General Cordorna's quarters by the authorization of the Pope to give explanation that a foreign military force for the moment ruled Rome, and that his Holiness was unable to prevent resistance to the entrance of the Italian troops into the city.
He wished to know what course Cordorna intended to take. The General replied that his purpose was fully set forth in the Royal proclamation. The King had shown great patience, but the fact that foreigners attempted to defend the city and rule the Pope, tried that patience severely.
Arnim begged a delay of twenty-four hours so that he might bring additional influence to bear on the Pope.
Cordorna sa far yielded as to suspend the attack on Rome twenty-four hours, but reserving the right to maneuvre his troops which now encircle the city.

li -P, GREAT BRITAIN. LONDON, September 19.—A late' dis
patch from Paris announce®' that pursuant with the arrangement perfected through the efforts of Lord Lyons and Count Bernshoff, M. Jules Favre has gone to meet Coqnt Bismarck. No basis has been agreed upon ly which negotiations shall be conducted. M. Favre's propositions are not definitely known.
Reports from the Prussian headquarters detail the successful procedure of the investment of Paris and an interview between Favre and Bismarck will" occur shortly, but no delay will be caused in the investment of the city unless the meeting should have some important result.

General Sheridan, in a letter from the German headquarters, severely criticises the handling of the French troops, and charges the most wilful incapacity on the officers of the Emperor. The General adds: "Every one is kind to me and I am enjoyinggood health." -U
LONDON, Sept. 19.—The Times this morning says there is a chance, almost hope, that the end of the war is approaching. We have it from reliable authority that M. Jules Favre is prepared to acknowledge the obligations of fraud to repair the measure of justice of the wrong which the Imperial Government inflicted upon Germany.
If the fair promised of peace Which exist at present prove abortive, the exact point for which the war is carriedon will be defined, and the judgement of the world will be severe upon the side Whose stubborness will be the cause of a second period of devastation in Paris.
Advices announce that M. Thiers has abandoned the idea of going to Russia by way of Switzerland, and has gone to St. Petersburg in a government steam yacht.
The railway between Paris and Rouen has been cut in several places'.
IF France has any true friends among the great Powers of the world, they will warn her that the defense of Paris is an act of folly—not to say a crime. The fall of the capital is only a question of time, and nothing can possibly be gained by postponing the inevitable catastrophe. If General Trochu should hold out for months, the only result would be starvation and nameless suffering within the walls, and disorganization throughout the Republic. The end would find Paris in destitution, and the Prussians probably in better condition than ever. There is no French army to come to the relief of the capital. There is no chance of organising a new army. The siege cannot be raised, and every soldier knows that the besieger cannot be beaten Off They will plant themselves before the'walls, strip the whole country to feed their immense hosts, and wait patiently for the defenders to exhaust their stores and the Republic to fall to pieces. It is the part of a general and a stateman to yield when he is hopelessly beaten.—N.

VICTOR EMANUEL, of Italy, seems to have gone to war with the Pope for nearly the same reason that impelled Napoleon to quarrel with King William—that is, to keep his throne. He says in a letter to the Pope that any longer delay on his part to occupy the Papal States would have been followed by the proclamation of the Italian Republic. This compulsory action, for which the Italian King apologizes, is a last resort, which will not save his Kingdom. Republicanism in Italy, as in France and everywhere, is progressive, and in the end will prove irresistible.—N. Y. Tribune.
