The resolutions adopted breathe a spirit of devotion to Germany and defiance to France,
A CORRESPONDENT of the Missouri Democrat, writing from San Francisco, says of that famed region, as follows
San Francisco is handsomely laid off, with fine wide srtreets at right angles with each other. For ten squares back from the bay the city is compactly built with houses' generally three stories high, of wood, brick, and, in some case3, all of iron. The style of architecture is showy in the extreme, in some cases the whole building, as in the case of the Grand Hotel, just finished, being all bay windows. The residences are mainly of wood, with numberless porticos and projections, often with high English basement, and always painted some light, cheerful and tasteful color.
The dwellings usually have considerable yard room attached, and it is wonderful to see to what perfection evergreens, flowers and shrubbery have been brought, when you consider that the city was originally a sand hill, but a little alluvial brought from a distance, together with plenty of water, has done wonders. Flowers with you are delicate and sensitive, but here they are massive and gorgeous through winter and summer—the temperature only varying about ten degrees, say from 75° to 85° in the shade. Why should they and all other vegetables not grow to a prodigious size when there is nothing to hinder them? By the way, I have seen a beet so large that the people are unable to get it to market. There is no wagon or team strong enough to haul it. How will that do for a dead beat? The sweet potatoes are perfectly immense, in one instance a man planted one in a ravine on his ranch, and it grew until it literally filled up the ravine, and the strawberries are not a whit behind.
With you, the term "Strawberry party" is understood to mean Strawberries party, but here a whole party have been known to hold high festival over a single strawberry and have enough left for a children's party the next evening.
I was standing (as 1 supposed) the other day under the protecting shade of oneof their gigantic pines, casting my mind back to the time when the germ of this mighty giant of the forest, first nestled in mother earth, when the owner of the demesne happened along and informed me that it was only a pie plan t. And so with the lettuce, with this plant set out in hills, a few feet apart and a hundred or more to the acre. But here, one lettuce is planted in the center of a lot, no matter how large the lot may be, and it not unfrequently happens that even then it entrenches upon the neighboring ground. In one case where this occurred, the neighbor being a dairyman, fed his entire stock on the overhang without being discovered by the owner.
The following maybe considered a sample of the many great things I have heard of since being here, but the worst sell that lias overtaken me was at the table the other day: One of the original gold finders in this wonderful El Dorado informed me that they had a nut here that neither grew on tree nor bush nor yet underground, that it was considered a great delicacy when first procured, that it was palatable in any way, either by itself or with condiments, or even with tea or coffee. After exhausting all my scientific lore as a nutist he informed me it was the doughnut.
From Lord Malmesbury's Memoirs.
Wellington and Waterloo.
At the Duchess of Richmond's ball at Brussels the Prince of Orange, who commanded the First Division of the Army, came back suddenly, just as the Duke of Wellington had taken his place at the supper table, and whispered something to his grace, who only"said he had no fresh orders to give, and recommended the Prince to go back to his quarters and go to bed. The Duke of Wellington remained nearly twenty minutes after this, and then said to the Duke of Richmond "I think it is time for me to go to bed likewise and then while wishing him good night, whispered to ask him if ho had a good map in the house. The Duke of Richmond said he had and took him into his dressing room, which opened into the supper room. The Duke of Wellington shut the door and said "Napoleon has humbugged me, by G—d he has gained twenty-four hours march on me!" The Duke of Richmond said "What do you intend doing
The Duke of Wellington replied "I have ordered the army to concentrate at Quatre Bras but we shall not stop him there and if so, I must light him here," (at the same time pressing his thumb nail over the position of Waterloo.) He then said adieu, and left the house by another way out. He went to his quarters, slept six hours and breakfasted, and run at great speed to Quatre Bras, where he met Hardinge, and went with him to Blucher, who took him over the position at Ligny. The Duke of Wellington suggested many alterations, but Blucher would not consent to move a man. The conversation in the Duke of Richmond's dressing room was repeated to me two minutes after it occurred, by the Duke of Richmond, who was to have had charge of tho reserve, if formed, and to whom I was to have been aid-de-camp. He marked the Duke of Wellington's thumb nail with his pencil on the map, and we often looked at it together some months afterward.
On the morning of the 17th, my company being nearly in front of the farm bouse at Quatre Bras, soon after daybreak the Duke ot Wellington came to me, and being personally known to him, he remained in conversation for an hour or more, during whicli time he said he was surprised to hear nothing of Blucher. At length a staff officer arrived, his horse covered with foam, and whispered to the Duke, who without the least change of countenance gave him some orders and dismissed him. He then turned round to me and said: "Old Blucher has had ad—d good licking, and gone back to Wayre, 18 miles. As he has gone back we must go, too. I suppose in England they will say we have been licked. I can't help it as they have gone back we must go too." He made all the arrangements for returning without moving from the spot on which he was standing, and it certainly did not occupy him five minutes.
An Old Manuscript.
In Upsala, in Sweden, there is a curious and renowned old manuscript, commonly known as the silver handwriting. It is a translation of the Bible into the original Gothic, and thebestauthoritiesclaim that it was written toward the end of the fifth or commencement of the sixth century. It was discovered in the sixteenth century at Verden, on the Rihr, and its autlicnticify was at once established. It was taken to Prague, but the Swedes took it away ia 1648, and carried it to Stockholm thence it was taken to Holland, and was brought back again for Sweden by the Chancellor de la Gardie for four hundred dollars. He had it magnificently bound ih a solid silver cover, and in 1669 presented it to the University of Upsala. It is written in silver, on crimson parchment. The headings and a few principal passages are in gold. It is rich in Bzyantine tracery of symbolic devices. It numbers 330 leaves, with twenty lines to each page. Only two punctuation marks are used throughout—the period and comma.

WASHINGTON, July, 21.—The following is from the report of the Department of Agriculture for July, just issued
The condition of wheat is above the average in the following States Maine, spring, 3 per cent. New Hampshire, 2 Virginia, winter, 1 North Carolina, 1 Georgia, 10 Alabama, 8 Tennessee, 6 West Virginia, Kentucky and Oregon, 3 Kansas and Nebraska, 2. An average crop is indicated in South Carolina and Arkansas.
The following States fall below an average Vermont, spring, 9 per cent. Massachusetts, 3 New York, 12 New Jersey winter 20 Pennsylvania, 9 Delaware, 35 Maryland, 30 Mississippi, 3 Texas, 13 Missouri, 15 Illinois, winter, 5 and spring, 25 Indiana, winter, 10 Ohio, winter, 9 Michigan, 15, and spring, 25 Minnesota, 16 California, 5, and Oregon 4.
The great wheat growing districts show a reduction in their condition, rendering it certain that this year will be materially less than that of 1S69. Future reports of the condition at and after harvesting may show an average depreciation of 13 per cent. A diminution in breadth of about 6 per cent, would make the present estimate about 210,000,000 acres, the decrease being at least 48,000,000 acres. The increase in the breadth of corn is greater than the decrease in wheat it may be placed at 5 per cent., or about 1,770,100 acres. There appears to be a very slight increase in Now England about 2 per cent, in the Middle States a decrease in the cotton States east of the Mississippi River, and a still larger increase in the heart of the West it is estimated at 10 per cent, in Illinois.

Sketch of the French Campaign—'The Oermans of St. Lours otter a Million Dollars—No Battle yet.
LONDON, July 21.—The following sketch of the French campaign has been obtain from a reliable source:
The French army is centering within the quadrilateral formed by the towns of Nancy, Thionville, Strasburg and Mayence, south of Strasburg on the same meridian as their camp at Bellefont, where the corps d'armee is taking up its position to form the right of the French army. Another corps Avill be on the reserve at Chalons sur Marne. The entire -army will be composed of eight corps—each containing three or four divisions of infantry—and from six to eight regiments of cavalry. Each division will have three batteries of artillery and one company of engineers, and will comprise from 10,000 to 12,000 men.
The Daily News this morning pronounces tiie rumor to be false that the battle yesterday reported to have taken place near Forbach, was merely an exchange of shots by the sentinels of the Custom House and the French patrols.
The officers of the Bank of England have just announced an advance in the rate of discount of one-half of one per cent. The minimum rate is now three per cent, in advance. It has been anticipated in moneyed circles for several days, and it is generally supposed that the effect was discounted. Freights for the Mediterranean are taken at war rates.
Prince Napoleon has arrived. There was an absurd rumor to-day that he had been captured while crossing the channel.
In the North German Parliament, yesterday, Dr.Simson read a despatch from America, announcing that the Germans of St. Louis offered one million dollars in aid of the wounded, and widows and orphans.
It is reported that the French army on the Prussian frontier, will make Silek the base of its operations.
French gunboats are cruising off Eddy-, stone Lighthouse. French cruisers are reported off Emend Hanover.
It is reported that the French War Department is negotiating with the Compagnee Trans-Atlantique and the Messageries Imperial, to charter their steamers as transports.
LaLiberte reports that the Prussian troops massed between Treves and Sarbrusck have fallen back to concentrate between the Fortress of Coblenz and Mayence.
Dates from Paris to noon give no news of a battle. France made some important concessions to the German merchantmen now in French ports, which came in lately, not knowing of the declaration of war. The concessions will be made public immediately.
The Times deplores the death of Paradol. It is said that Austria is ordering extended field manouveres in Hungary, which is accepted as proving the sincerity sf her nutrality.
FRANCE.
Another Unsuccessful Effort to Intercede—Exciting Scene at the Grand Opera House, fee.
PARIS, July 21—Evening.—The Emperor remained at St. Cloud all day. He comes to Paris to-morrow to receive members of the Corps Legislatif at the Tuilleries. President Schneider will make protestations of devotion of the representatives of the country to the dynasty and national cause.
La Liberte says the Government has decided to dissolve the Corps Legislatif if the members should make too strong an opposition to the closing of the session.
The same paper states that the Government asked the Baden Cabinet whether in case of hostilities they should permit the use of explosive bullets, and notified them that should they do so France would not hesitate to follow their example. The answer of the Baden Cabinet was that they never intended to resort to such a method of warfare.
The Representatives of foreign powers here made another effort to-day to prevent war, but were unsuccessful.
The Madrid journals advise neutrality for Spain. Madame Rosso sang at the Grand Opera last evening. In the third act of Massinello she sang the Marsellaise, and the scene of excitement was indescribable. The audience arose en masse, and joined in the song, which terminated amid deafening shouts of "VivaLa France."
PARIS, July 21.—The Journal Official makes the following announcement: The Emperor has decided on the proposition of the Minister of Foreign Affairs that all subjects of Prussia now in France or the French colonies shall be permitted to remain so long as their conduct furnishes no cause for complaint. Admission from this date to the territory of France of subjects of Prussia or allied States will be subject to special permission, only exceptionally. In regard to vessels of commerce belonging to the enemy, the following rule3 will be observed: .•
To such vessels now in French ports or which may enter said ports in ignorance of the war, a delay of thirty days will be granted for their departure, and safe conduct will be given them until their arrival at their place of destination or at ports to which they may belong.

GRASSHOPPERS and crickets have taken the field in the Pacific States in formidable numbers. The grass plots of the San Francisco plaza suddenly disappeared under their tread, and enactments even more vigorous than those employed against the Chinese failed to disperse them. The black crickets, in a belt one mile wide and of unknown length, struck the Humboldt River about six miles above Elko, Nevada, and crossed it. Its surface was blackened for hours, and fishes gathered from up and down the river to feast upon them. It was found that horses driven into the column of crickets, became frightened and could not be induced to proceed. Some of the individual crickets were of extraordinary size. In Utah, grasshoppers are said to "subside" somewhat after a flock of sheep is driven rapidly about in afield containing them. Near Stockton, as a railroad train was going up a steep grade in Echo Canon, it was brought to a stop by these insects. Another train came to its assistance, and, with a plentiful distribution of sand and the use of brooms by men standing on the cow-catcher, the locality so infested was with difficulty passed. What a miraculous story this would have made for the Athenians, who boasted descent from the grasshoppers!
AN impatient Welshman called to his wife, "Come, come, isn't breakfast ready I've had nothing since yesterday, and tomorrow will be the third day This is equal to the call of the stirring housewife, who aroused her maid at 4 o'clock with "Come, Bridget, get up! Here 'tis Monday morning, to-morrow is Tuesday the next day's Wednesday—half the week gone, and nothing done yet!"
Buddha has more worshippers in the world than Christ has. This statement is very startliing, but when we remember that the greater part of 400,000,000 of Chinese are Buddhists, besides the population of Japan, Burmali, Siam, Thibet and Ceylon it seems to be true for these countries contain nearly half of the whole human race. The Buddhists, if the whole world were under one government, with a perfect equality of rights, would be able to out vote the Protestant Christians by five or six to one and a rather singular exemplification would be afforded of a saying that is frequently in the mouths of demagogues, that "the voice of the people is the voice of God."

It will vindicate our dignity before foreign nations, and will discountenance aught by which our self rcspect or our love for republican institutions could be endangered.
The TIMES desires to be judged by the highest possible standard of journalism. Its EDITORIAL DEPARTMENT will be conducted in a spirit of fairness and impartiality, free alike from personal rancor or undue favoritism and will be the production of the ablest and most experienced writers upon all the subjects treated. Its CORRRESPONDENCE will be full and timely. Its REPORTS will be prepared with the utmost care, and will embrace every fact or public utterance of opinion that possesses interest and importance. The LITERARY DEPARTMENT will be in thoroughly capable hands, and will present a full review of the literature, the fine arts, the music, and the drama of the day.
As a family paper, free from all appeals to vulgar or impure tastes, the TIMES will continue unexceptionable, and may be safely admitted to every domestic circle.
The Sunday edition of the TIMES will include, in addition to all the news, selected and original" literary matter of the most varied and agreeable character.
The WEEKLY and SEMI-WEEKLY editions of the TIMES will be compiled with the greatest care and will contain selections from the most important contents of the Daily issue, besides matters of interest to the agricultural sections ol the country. All who prefer a newspaper but once or twice a week will find these editions admirably suited to their requirements.
A special edition of the TIMES for EUROPEAN circulation will be published every Wednesday and Saturday, in time for the European mails, and will be valuable and welcome to our friends abroad, whether Americans or of any other nationality than our own.
All these editions of the TIMES are of the very largest size, on large quarto sheets, each containing fifty-six columns, printed in clear and legible type, at the following rates:
