what his friend and agent was doing in his behalf, from time to time, and to be in communication with him, whether present or absent, and he is therefore responsible for all the artfnl dodging which has been exhibited in this matter.

At 2 o'clock P. Ji. of the same day Mr.

HANNA

submitted the following answer

to the foregoing proposition:

TERRE HAUTE,

July 27, 1870.

Dear Sir:— Your note of this date received Mr. Dunn challenged Mr. Voorhees to a joint discussion,his challenge has been made with commendable conhdence and courage in every part of thedistricl where Mr. Dunn has addressed the people The only criticism that could possibly he interposed, is, that it was made at a time when everybody in the district knew that Mr. Voorhees was at his post ot duty at the National Capitol. On Mr. Voorhees' return from Washington he made some joint appoint menls published in a dailv journal of this city,lo which Mr. Dunn was most cordially invited. This gentleman, it seems, had some outstanding engagements which he could not change. Both gentlemen have now tilled their appointments without violation of anv promises, so that the field is open for a tair meeting. Mr. oorhees is ready to accept the proposed challenge.

Both gentlemen have addressed the people in every part of the district and a very proper occasion has now transpired, when they can, with satisfaction to all. sum up the issues.

Mr. Voorhees already has outstanding engagements which he cannot, without violence to the wishes hi* triend* change or luodifv. ..... son feil'Vni'.I a'sl^'tiih" at Huston

He will meet Mr. Dunn in joint discus-

sion on public questions in each capital town of this District, commencing on the loth day of August next and extending to a period of time sufficient to complete the engagement, not including in the arrangement the week next succeeding the 27th day of August, when his time is already pre-eugaged. Tbis will give everybody a chance to judge between the two chosen partisans.

I will meet you at any time you may select provided it does not extend bevend this date, to close the arrangements.

Yours Truly, B.

W. HANNA.

An appointment was made for 8 o'clock p. M., at the Terre Haute House, at which time'and place Mr.

BURNETT

the following reply:

HON.

submitted

TERRE HAUTE,

July 27, 1S70.

W. HANNA—Dear Sir:

Yours

iur. uuwiw in »w. -7 cuss with you the conduct of either of the Congressional candidates prior to this time. I understand that Mr. Dunn did declare his willingness to meet Mr. Voorhees in joint discussion, at the opening of the campaign, but whether this makes him the challenging party, or whether he made the challenge with "confidence" and "courage" (as you charge) seem to me to be matters entirely foreign to our present business, and I am wholly unable to see your object in lugging such matters into our correspondence. Your assertion that Mr. Voorhees "made some joint appointments," to which Mr.

Dunn was invited, is

not warranted by the facts. Theappointinents were not joint, but were for Mr. Voorhees only, and were made without consulting Mr. Dunn at all, and the invitation of Mr. Voorhees to Mr. Dunn to attend those appointments, was a very cheap way of manufacturing "buncomb," which lacks even the merit of novelty.

Without further adverting to the matters unconnected with our business, which comprise three-fourths of your communication, I will sav that 1 am not at present authorized by Mr. Dunn to accept your proposition to cut the discussion down to one speech in each county. Mr. Dunn, in seeking a joint discussion with Mr. Voorhees, was anxious to occupy the time from now till the election. He hoped to have at least four joint discussions in each county, as proposed in my note of this morning, and, in his instructions to mc, did not anticipate a proposition for less than two speeches in a county. I do not regard your proposition as amounting to a joint canvass at all- No joint canvass has ever been made, in this district, to my knowledge, consisting of one speech in a county, and 1 do not know that such an arrangement will suit Mr. Dunn. It would he not. only absurd but very inconvenient, as it would compel them to go over the district twice.

I now propose to you tv:o speeches in each county, commencing to suit Mr. Voorhees, oil the loth of August. If you do not accept this proposition, I ask time to confer with Mr. Dunn and ascertain whether be will accept your extraordinary proposal. If you cannot act longer tIiiit to-dav for Mr. Voorhees, suggest that soinc other person lie named by Air. V. to conduct the negotiation. I wrote von yesterday on the subject. You met me to-dav at 10 A. M., for the tirst. time, and it would be very singular if von insist on closing the matter to-day. There is mi need ot such haste, as you do not propose to have the discussion begin till the 15th of August. 1 can hear from Mr. Dunn to-morrow or bv Monday morning at the fat*tlie-d. INspeetfully,

being sick, and lie being unable to wait until Mr

HANNA

BURNETT

completed his letter,

Mr. 1I \NNA agreed to leave his answer at the oflice ol the Terre Haute House that night. Mr.

HANNA

also informed Mr

that he should leave the city,

early next morning, and would be absent until Thursday, August 4th, and requested that further negotiation he postponed until that time.

OFFICIAL DISPATCH FiiOM JIAMBFllfJ.

LONDON,

Aug. 9.—The following offi

cial dispatch is dated at Hamburg, in Palatenate, 9:45 a. m., Aug.S: Yesterday after the battle of "Worth the enemy retired in the greatest disorder. The French artillery endeavored to make a stand at Neiderfriin. That town was taken bv the Bavarians. The enemy retired on the route to Bitsche. The cavalry ol Wurteniburg captured theenemy'.s stores and four pieces of artillery at Keichstafeir. Dead and wounded covered the route of the retreating army. This morning we have occupied Haguenau, evacuated -by the enemy. German troops hold both banks of the Saar, having occupied Kaaregiiiniue and Forbach after a slight resistance by the French.

THE LONDON TIMES

ascribes the French disaster to the Fniperor's obstinacy in refusing sound tiiililarv advice, and to his illness.

The Times savs parties in France will make the Fmperor pay the penalty of his ill success. His name is already ignored in acts bv which the Kegency seek to railv the "people. Things arrange themselves, as if he was not. expected to resume his power as il testing how he mav be dispensed with altogether. The onlv question is who shall first litter the word—abdication.

THE KM ^ELTON'S MISMANAGEMENT. Edmund About writes from the field bitterlv condemning the Emperor's mismanagement. He says: "Having declared the war, he let the Prussians begin it. True, neither party was ready, yet the French lost, twenty days in useless marching and counter-marching. They were surprised.at Weissenburg by an enemy whom there were no videt'tes to match, no skirmishers to meet and no nettled plan to repel."

PROCI.AMATION OK THE MINISTERS. The Ministers have addressed the following proclamation to the Parisians: •'Our army is concentrated. New ellbrt has imparted to it fresh hope and confidence, but agitation here will lessen the moral force of the army and act against it. Pari« is rising. The French army will be between two lires.

NO DISTURBANCES.

The Patrie says it was rumored the Uourse would be closed to-day at noon, but nothing of the sort has taken place. There have been no disturbances. The authorities having been warned that the International Society of workingmen intended making demonstrations, took precautions to prevent them, which have been effectual, if any outbreak was really contemplated.

TERRE-HAUTE INDIANA, WEDNESDAY MORNING. AUGUST 10, 1870.

OLD SOLDIERS CALLED ON TO GO TO THE FRONT. The Patrie says the government calls upon all former officers and soldiers having served in the army of France to take grades in regiments of volunteers, or of the Garde Mobile, which are to go to the front.

^PROSECUTION OF LOTTERY DEALERS.

|NEW YORK,

August 9.—Instructions

have been received by Commissioner Shields, from Washington, to prosecute .vigorously all lotery dealers, who have neglected or refused to pay their special tax. The Commissioner commenced operations yesterday morning, and issued warrants for the arrest of a number of dealers.

THE PRUSSIAN MINISTER.

A Washington correspondent telegraphs that Baron Gerolt, Prussian minister, is in high spirits, having received numerous congratulations on the Prussian victories. He trusts in the main to newspaper telegrams for news, as he receives very few oflicia! ones from Berlin.

THE FRENCH MINISTF.U.

The French minister, on the contrary, is in receipt of many dispatches, but declines to furnish any information for publication. He says that they are of an official character, and that it would not be propea to give them publicity.

CHIEF JUSTICE OF UTAH.

Genet al James B. McKean, the newly appointed Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court of Utah, will leave for his new field of duty in a, few days. He has not returned from Washington, where he has been in censultation with OcnenU IIrant nml the Altornrv (itnCM'lll upon the'eondition fit' affairs in that territory.

F.X-CONFEDF.RATES.

The acting French Consul at Richmond has had so many applications from exConfederates, who desires to enter the French army, that he lias been compelled to announce through the newspapers thai he has no authority to accept I heir propositions. NFI'TJtA l.ITV AND INDEPENDENCE ..OF liELOir.M.

A cable from London at 1 :L!0 this A. M, says, Gladstone's announcement in the House that the English government had at last made a specific proposition lor Belgium's protection, is welcomed with a signed'relief and a feeling that England hits once more vindicated her position as an European power.

D'lsraeli only expressed the sjeiieial feeling of the House when saying, that he rejoiced that the government is resolved to' maintain the neutrality and independ enceof Belgium, and that he accepted the declaration as an avowal of a wise

ami Hpiriti'd polLrv, and not It** ht'-can.-ie spirited. Few -Ministers statements, tlie Daily News savs, have been received with more general satisfaction.

To their many claims to the conlideiicu of the Crown and to the support of the people, the government has now added another, which, if it does not transcend, at least equals any which it was In-line entitled to urge. The sagacity, moderation, and at the same time boldness of il* foreign policy, presents a striking contract to the isolation which has been suggested on one hand, and the Insolent and purposeless meddling which has been practiced on the other.

NO NEWS.

There is nothing from either army up to one and a half o'clock this, Tuesday morning.

BAI-ITH' ENTERPRISE POSTPONED. General Trochn, who was to have commanded the Baltic expeditionary corps, is gone to Metz, and the Ualtic enterprise is indefinitely postponed.
