THE Express really aroused from its slumbers long enough to-day to got out an Extra. Why did it not wait ton minutes longer, and read all the news from the Gazette? Who ever heard of the Express getting out an Extra before Before the Gazette commenced giving the people afternoon dispatches, if the Express received any important item of news, it was locked up in the drawer and kept safely hid until the paper appeared in the morning. Now when the Gazette is after it, with lightning speed, the old thing really gets aroused occasionally.
THE PARICE COUNTY NEWS.—We have received the first number of this new candidate for public favor. It is gotten up with much taste, and edited by John S. Dare with marked ability. Its editorials evince great liberality of thought, and it seems to be entirely independent in politics.
The "Republican" must look out for its laurels, for we are inclined to the opinion, it now has a competitor worthy of its steel. $
IT has been observed of late that the Journal was "laboring"—that it was in distress about something. It was at last ascertained that it was in consequence of the "pressure" being so great, and that the "veil" had not been removed. Since the Volksblatt has assumed the "pressure" and lifted the "veil" the Journal is greatly relieved.
WEhearda chap, last night, who wears long whiskers and carries a cane, say a string of "cuss words''as long as a fence rail, and upon inquiry we found that all the trouble was a melon rind he had stepped on, which elevated his heels at an angle of 45 degrees. He struck solid, "you bet."
tho Democratic candidate for
Congress in tho 8th District, says he will not imperil his self-respect by electioneering for negro votes.—Exchange.
Morcau is more particular than the man who gave the negro barber fifty cents for shaving him in Rockville. We guess neither will get the votes of many colored people.
THIS city is ahead of the world for thieving boys. We think an application of cow-hide would do more to stop it than arrests. Parents, look to it, and know where your boys are, and what kind of company they are keeping, or the first thing you kuow the penitentiary will save you all trouble.
MR. H. ERNHARDT has thoroughly refitted the old Coniique, and the name is to be changed to the Academy of Music. It is to be opened the first week in September by Luke Schoolcraft, with a fine Variety Troupe from St. Louis. This will be nuts for the boys.
THE population of Clark county^ 111., we are informed, will not vary much from 18,000. The depot at Marshall, on the St. L., V., & T. H. R. R., will soon be completed, and will afford ample accommodation for the business men of that place.
THE Journal chuckles over the great $ help the party expect from the Volksblatt. .A You are welcome to all the capital you make out of that. Our Germans were taking the matter very quietly until the sale, but now they are wide awake, and talk of starting another paper that can't be bought.
ACCOMMODATION.—It will be seen by referring to the time card of the T. H.F & I. R. R. that they are now runuingan accommodation from Green castle. This gives our friends in that little city a chance to come to town, see the fashions, eat a watermelon, audgohome the same evening:.
THB Volksblatt refused the radical bribe, ind consonance with an overwhelming opular sentiment, has nobly arraigned X^elf on the side of the people !—Journal. indeed But. how ^bout tjie tr&nolL^^ from the Denfocratic Geim the vksitt™ understood that proposes to accept that

GREAT BRITAIN.
LONDON, August 4.—rThe Paris corresondent of the Daily News writes on uesday: The enthusiasm for war has evidently disappeared in Paris. It is now evident that the war with Germany means a prolonged struggle against one million armed men, combined and determined to defend their own country, and, if possible, to give the French such a lesson that hereafter the Emperor's peculiar mode of making his reign in an era of peace by attacking his neighbors, will be rendered impossible.
P« Ti
The announcement that the fortifications of Paris are to be placed in a condition of defense, and the Emperors admission that the war will be a long one, have, singularly enough, dampened the ardor of those who imagined that within a fortnight* a glorious peace that would re-establish a supremacy of French arms would be signed in Berlin. We are still told that the Germans are trembling at the idea of encountering Mitrilleurs and Turcos, but the legend has lost its effect. ^deputation from Newfoundland waited on Earl Kimberly yesterday, and asked that the British troops now in the Provinces be suffered to remain as a protection against a possible Fenian attack. The Minister returned a discouraging answer, intimating that the colonies must rely upon themselves.

PRUSSIA,
BERLIN, August 4.—The Prussian government furnishes the following account, more in detail, of the affair at Saarbruck: "A feeble garrison held Saarbruck until the French deployed and advanced in three columns. The Prussians then retired to- a position north of town, to observe the enemy. In spite of the free use by the French of mitrailleurs, artillery and chassepots, our losses were only two officers ana seventy men. The loss of the French appeared more serious. Our troops were admirably cool.
METZ, August 4.—Fourteen Prussian soldiers, captured at the attack on Saarbruck, passed through this city late yesterday afternoon. Part of them were on their'way to Belfort and part to Thionville, where they will be imprisoned.
The Prussian wounded were cared for the same as the French. STRASBURG, August 3. Yesterday, after the council of war, Marshall McMahon, with his Chief of Staff, General Coulson, surveyed the Rhine from Kiell Bridge upwards. They visited Bramata, twenty miles north of here, where a cavalry division and a part of the First Division of infantry are encamped.
From these movements it is conjectured that McMahon, with a portion of the army, is about to cross the Rhine and dash rapidly, by way of Karlsrhue and Heidelberg to Frankfort, and that from thence he will endeavor to cut the railroad communication between Berlin and the Rhine. It is believed he will leave Mayence on the left, while the main army pushes on through the lower Rhine provinces to Mayence and Coblentz. It is rumored that the forward movement is fixed for Saturday.
It is reported that the Prussians have gathered in force in the South, and that a Baden force is in the Black Forest.
