A FBEBLE BOAST.—The Express came out yesterday innminjr with a feeble boast in regard to its daily circulation. We asr«?e that the Express has a larger daily cireuli tion than the Journal, but when all the editions of the two establishments are considered, that paper will be left so far in the shade that people will wonder at its brassy boldness in alluding to the matter at all. The Express rades the fact before the public that its daily is twenty years old. The Journal is but six years "old, and yet our daily circulation is fast approximating that of our cotemporary, and in a short time we expect to be even with and overcome all such ill-timed boasting! -Journal.
What a fearful amount of wind about circulation! Neither the Express or Journal have 500 daily circulation, or 800 weekly. Our weekly has a larger circulation than all their daily and weekly combined, but when rogues fall out, honest men get their dues. We are sorry to see you quarrel, gentlemen, for when we had two daily and one weakly paper, all consolidated, with the whole brains of tiie three concerns concocting .schemes to "bust" this concern, we had alittieshow for competition, but now that they have commenced running each other, we have no fun. Poor, played-out, old concerns, we are sorry for you. You may have been up with the times in the last century, but this age is too fast for you. You can't comprehend the necesitties of a live city.
fsKVERAL first class items have come to our knowledge during the past few days, but as the Grand Jury meets on Monday* we will thpn have an opportunity to get them *'rom first hands. Should that secret tribunal bring them to light, the EXPRESS will tell its more than six thousand readers all about it.—Express.
That is enterprise for you. Why do you wait to see if the Grand Jury will find out those "first class" items? Let us have 'em by all means. Six thousand readers! That estimate is made on the supposition that each copy of the paper is read by about 25 persons. It is probably safe to make that sort of a calculation. Divide 6,000 by 25 and you will have near the circulation of the Express.
The Germans of Louisville. It seeins to us that if our German fel-low-citizens have hitherto failed to see with which of the two great political parties of this country their interests lie, the present war in Europe must remove the scales from their eyes and enable them to distin.uiis'i their true friends on this ide of the Atlantic. To arrive at coi.vistion upon this point, they have at ihi juncture only to look at and reflect upon the tone of the Democratic press thrmghout the land, and, especially that portion of it in the Southern States, wii during our late civil struggle was on the side of the rebellion. In sentiment it"is unanimous against their fatherland and in sympathy with Napoleon. He has provoked this war without a fair and legitimate cause, osiensibiv, he would have the world believe, to avenge an in t, or to repel wh'at he is pleased to con •iider the aggressive policy of Pr is- ia, in reality, it is necessity that compels him to pick a quarrel as a pretext for appealing to the French love for glory, in order to re-establish himself in the confidence of a nation grown restless through long suffering under his despotic rule. He well knows that the despotism which he has reared and maintained can no longer peacefully and successfully withstand the force of the liberal ideas of this age, and which upon the European continent have their stronghold among the people of the Germanic Confederation hence his object is the humiliation of Prussia, the disintegration of Germany, whose civilization founded as it is upon progressive ideas, threatens in its irresistible march to overwhelm his unstable fabric, erected upon principles essentially
reiCiionary.
He may
well be alarmed, fur the day is not far distant, perhaps is at hand, when that fundamental principle—government can only be maintained through the consent of the governed—will have universal application. He is wise in his apprehension, but foolish in so far as he refuses to heed the lesson which tells him to cease resistance to destiny, and to wheel the people at whose head he is, into column, to join the great army of nations in its conquest of universal liberty.
For the same reason tfiatMie would now stem the progress of German civilization he wisned the success of the slaveholders' rebellion in this country and the destruction of our national Union, and to that end used every means in his power* Seeing them of a common spirit—the spirit of a hostijity to free government—underlying the policy of
Napoleon to-day, and tlie policy
of
Jeff Davis and his followers during the rebelli on, it is not surprising that the latter, or Democratic party of the country, should return the favor by giving him their sympathy. Furthermore, in their present attitude, they are perfectly consistent with their conduct during the war, not only as regards their sympathy with the French, but also as regards their hatred for the "d—d Dutch!" for who of us but recollects how the rebel press teemed with vilification of the German character, liow' they gave vent to curses loud and deep at the idea of the best blood of the chivalry having to flow from wounds made by sword or Imyonet in the hands of "Dutch hirelings"—a foe utterly unworthy of a Southern's steel. It cannot be then that the Germans of Louisville will support the nominees of the Democratic party, thus shown to be a party hostile and prescriptive toward them, but, on the eontiary, recognizing the Republican party, the parry of peace, progress and liberty, the party which acts upon the law, "the greatest good to the greatest number," as their true friend, they will wheel into its lines and support its candidates at the next August election.— Louis-ville Commercial.

REALITY IN HISTORY.
Further Ucmurkable Discoveries at Pompeii. During the eruptions of Vesuvius, which destroyed the ancient city of Pompeii, those who delayed too long in making their escape fell victims, for the most part, to the sulphuric and carbonic acid gasses, and were rapidly covered by the showers of fine dust following the eruption, which gradually hardening, formed perfect moulds of the unhappy beings who so miserably perished, from which admirable casts are taken, showing their form, features, expression and attitude when overtaken by death. At the beginning of the excavations little attention was paid to tiiese natural moulds, only a few having been partially cast and preserved, the most remarkable of which were those of a husband, wife and child, the husband at the time of his death, pressing tightly to his breast nineteen pieces of gold and ninety-one pieces of silver, which were found fixed to his
ribs
the wife had l?t
fall a coarse linen cover, in which were found fourteen bracelets, gold rings, earrings and jewels of less importance.
It was only, however, in 1863, that M. Florelli had the happy idea of filling those natural mould with a peculiar solution of plaster, by which process the victims are reproduced in their integrity.
The first group reproduced were composed of a ma-), a woman,and two young girls, who had remained within doors until too late when they attempted to escape by the windows or terrace, they were suddenly asphyxiated, aud covered by the dust, which faithfully preserved the contour of their forms.
In 186S, a body thus reproduced was that of a man who had fallen face downward, whose countenence was the very image of despair and suffering—his clinched teeth and crisped hands eloquently expressing the agony he had endured.
Next in interest is the form of a woman who had fallen on her back, whose right hand leans upon the earth, her left raided as if trying to ward off danger. To aid her flight, she had raised her vestments. Her form is tall and elegant, her admirably arched foo% encased in strong sandals, being a favorite subject of study to artists. On one of her fingers is a silver ring, while near her were found gold ear rings, a silver mirror, and an amber statue representing Cupid. Pier hair in the front forms three rows of ringlets, and falls, plaited, over her back, in the manner of "the Voltaire perruques.
A markable group of three persons has been admirably cast, which is in the highest degree interesting. A man of tall stature and powerful build, with strongly marked features, prominent cheek bones, heavy beard and mustache, is the principal figure. He held in his hands the ear rings of the two young girls who followed him, and the key of his house, and looks the beau ideal of an old Roman legionary. Over his head he had thrown the corner of his mantle for protection against the noxious gases or the falling dust and cinders, the expression on his face and that of his two daughters being suggestive of suffocation.
There is something touching in the spectacle of the two sisters who followed their father, in the precise attitude as they fell, supporting each other, breathing the same poison, and dying entwined in each other's arms. Both of the figures are of beautiful form and proportions.
There is something inexpressibly sad in the aspect of this group, moulded by Nature in the agony between life and death, as they vainly attempted to escape from the doomed city.
With the means now at the disposal of M. Florelli, he will be able to form a museum representing the race, beauty, costume, and unhappv fate of the inhabitants of Pompeii, which will henceforth be of inestimable value to students of art and history.
Prom the Burlington (Vt.) Free Press, July 16* A Wild Lion Loose in tlie Streets. Two-cages containing a pair of African lions,°and four Pumas or American lions, the elephant "Victoria," and two camels passed through on the cars yesterday forenoon, from New York, to join Yankee Robinson's circus at St. Johns. The car doors were thrown open to give air to the elephant and camels, and quite a crowd gathered at the Central depot to have a free look at the show. The loins could also be seen through the small gates of their cages, they being on a flat car conn- cted to the one occupied by the elephant and camels. The company was not destined to disperse, however, without a little excitement, as the sequel proved. As the keeper of the animals entered the cage of the four Americau lions to clean the cage one of the lions sprang past him and out the door, lighting on the ground in the midst of the crowd. This visit was something more than had been bargained for, and it is recorded that the way boot heels and coat tails disappeared arouud lumber piles, cfec., was not slow. Lumber piles brought a premium, and the lion had things his own way for a few minutes. The lion beat a hasty retreat under the car and remained there growling antrily until compelled to come out by the keeper who backed up his persuasion with a club. A rope with a noose had been prepared and so arranged that when the lion came from under the car he had to pass through the noose, which was drawn up by parties on the top of the car, and the animal secured ahd put back into the cage, having injured no one while at liberty. These lions belong to Miss Wells, and it was by one of them that she was attacked and somewl at injured, while exhibiting with them in New York city a few days since. It was fortunate the beast did not see fit to make an immediate attacK on any of those standing around the car, as he was an ugly looking customer, and might have done considerable mischief in a short time.

Ttie result of the international yacht race caused intense excitement here. The universal feeling is that the relative speed of the yachts is undecided. When the rumor spread early in the evening that the Dauntless was the winner, the expressions of jubilation were unbounded, and the revulsion was comparatively great when it was learned that the English yacht was victorious. The betting on each side was very heavy, especially on Wall street and among the guests of the Fifth Avenue Hotel. Among all classes, the number of persons who invested their money on the American yacht was very large. The impression is prevalent that the sailing master of the Dauntless took a less favorable course than the Cambria adopted.

LONDON, July 28.—The Times continues its comments on the secret treaty proposed by France to Prussia. After carefully weighing the evidence, the Times thinks the authenticity of the treaty is fully established. It is clear that both parties were involved in a conspiracy, touching which they should now make clean breasts.
The Prussian government announces that Benedetti's autograph in the secret treaty lately made public in England is visible to all caliers at the Foreign Office.
A formal communication from the North German Confederation is expected, demonstrating the authenticity of the treaty, and reciting other similar overtures from the French Emperor.
A special correspondent writes from Madrid, on the 2-3th, that the feeling of the Government was secretly in favor of France, based on satisfaction because Prussia and not Spain was attacked. The Republican newspapers denounce this tendency, and warned the Government that the people will not endure the base submission to the French alliance under any circumstances.^ The same sentiment is partly shared in by the army. An order expelling Don Carlos from France was purchased through intrigue, by Olozaga, and humiiating concessions. 4 ...

BRUSSELS, July 28.—The Independence Beige publishes a letter from a Berlin correspondent which throws some new light on the secret treaty proprosed to Prussia by France. The correspondent says he has seen the original draft of the treaty in the archives of the War Office, atBer lin, aud certifies to the accuracy of the copy recently printed by the London Times. France has repeatedly demanded this document from the Prussian Government through her representative at Berlin, Count Benedetta, Dut in all cases they had been refused, and now that she is satisfied its recovery is impossible, assumes a hostile attitude toward Prussia.
PRUSSIA.
BERLIN, July 28.—Count Benedetti's draft of the secret treaty between France and Prussia, is not the only document of the kind which exists. Napoleon at one time opened similar negotiations, presenting his views with regard to Switzerland, and intimated that he did not know where France ended and Italy began. Papers proving this statement, it is understood, will soon be produced.

PARIS, July 28.—It having been reported that several American officers desire to follow the French army in the campaign against Prussia, for the purpose of making observations for the use of the Americau Government, petitions were lately filed with the Government for the necessary permission.
