YOUNO AMERICA.-John Sunny, a youth of | wayward propensities^ was lodged at the Guardhouse last evening for safekeeping by [ his mother, who represented him as an un? governable youth of irregular habits, and ad? dicted to bad company and late hours. Find? ing that no effort on her part could reform him, she invoked the aid of the law as a last resort. THAT NOTABLE MARRIAGE.-The New York Mall says : "We have been informed, through a heretofore always trustworthy source, of a remarkably quiet and unpretending marriage, which took place on the 14th Instant at Port? land, Me. The contracting parties were two ol our prominent public artists-Signor Brlg noli and Miss Mcculloch. We give the news as lt comes to us, and are disposed to believe in its correctness." -_ DISORDERLY WOMEN.-The police made a de- j scent upon a house of bad repute in Chalmers street, Wednesday evening, In which a party o? drunken women were behaving in a very disorderly manner, disturbing the neighbor? hood by their yells and oaths.

And no stamp shall be required upon the transfer or assignment of a mort-j gage, where lt or the Instrument lt secures has once been duly stamped."

Simonas, who claims to have been a school teacher in Georgetown County, was arrested yesterday morning, under a warrant J from Trial Justice Levy, on complaint of Mr. Nelson, of this city, who had cashed an order for $100, bearing the signature of Hiram Ward, payable to said Slmonds at any bank In Charleston. The order was endorsed "A. J. Ransler," and Mr. Nelson was led to believe that the whole thing was genuine. On pre? senting the order at several banks yesterday morning be was told that such a person as "Hiram Ward" was not known by the officers, and he has since ascertained that A. J. Mun? ster's signature on the note is a forgery. The prisoner, after a hearing, was sent to jail. PATENT STEAM GENERATOR.-A trial of this Ing?nions and useful piece of machinery was made yesterday at the foot of Laurens street, In the presence of a large number of mechan? ics, citizens and miners, and all pronounced the boiler and washer a complete success. Messrs. Cameron & Barkley are the agents for the State. The boiler ls non-explosive, and ls a saving of fuel, over all others, of 30 per cent The engine was tested in its appli? cation to Lobby's phosphate rock and ore washer, and satisfied all of its utility and suc? cess. The apara: IIB was got up on the s t ea m tia t which was built for the Marine and .River j Mining and Manufacturing Company, by C. C. Coe, the general superintendent. The ma? chinery will be in operation and OR exhibition every day this week at Pregnal's ship yard at the foot of Laurens street. . ON A BENDER.-A white man from the rural districts, who had "Interviewed" John Barley? corn too frequently, went out to take a peep at the city and see the lashlons. He brought op at a house on Coming street, where he as? saulted the occupant, a girl of about sixteen years or age, In a most cruel and cowardly manner. Her cries brought the police to her) aid. On the latter's approach, the assaulting f party drew a revolver, and advised the star to halt or he would shoot him. The policeman, however, advanced and disarmed the erring son of Bacchus, and conducted him to the. Guardhouse. He hod a hearing before the Mayor yesterday morning, and was sentenced to pay a fine of $50. He was also required to give ball in the sum of $1000, to keep the peace in future. He that dances must pay the fiddler. DEATH OF LANGDON BOWIE, SR.-The Savan? nah papers announce the sudden death of Mr. Langdon Bowie, Sr., agent of the Equitable Life Insurance Company of New York, who fell dead In his office In that city on Wednes? day, from disease of the heart. Mr. Bowie had complained of feeling tm well in the morning before going to his office, and he hod hardly entered upon the duties of the day before he was suddenly called from this life.

[Concluded from First Page.] was aa order from headquarters. No military maps ore permitted to be sold to civilians; only officers can buy them. No parcels or goods can come by rail except by a quartermaster's order. There ls great distress in the factories for want of Belgian coal. Marshal Bazaine is sending everywhere to buy maps of Bavaria. The military postal service and the military chest arrived this morning. All the money ls lu gold, which indicates the intention to quit French territory Immediately, and push the campaign in localities where French notes will not be taken. There is great importance attached here lo gunboats, which are to be used as they were in the American war, and are to act on the Rhine and the Moselle, possibly on the Sarre, should the Prussians defend that stream. Each gunboat carries one heavy gun and twelve men, ami is commanded by a lieutenant. De Vaisseau believes that the Prussians have no gunboats. Everything ls quiet In Luxembourg. The communications with Germany are easy. French officers boast that they have a million men between Thlonvllle and Strasbourg. Passes to correspondents are still rigidly re? fused. General Bazaine hos sent to a written application a written reply, as follows: "The formal orders of the Emperor prohibit the granting of any authorization to follow head? quarters to any person not belonging to the" army. I have therefore no power to grant the request you have done me the honor to make; and I oan only refer you to the decision of the Major-General of the Army." Our Paris special correspondent advises, under date of 25th, that the Emperor was ex? pected to leave quietly for the front lost night but did not go. His departure will probably be delayed some days, as he is ill. Warlike Attitude of England-The Pro? posed Treaty Between France and ?Prussia-Profound Impression Pro? duced on English Opinion hy Its Pub? lication-The Daily News on thc Crisis -England's Neutrality Difficult, if not Impossible. [Special to the New York Tribune.] LONDON, July 26-1 A. M. English feeling has been profoundly moved by the publication this morning in the Times ol the proposed treaty between France and Prussia The grave urgency with which Dis? raeli In the House this afternoon questioned the government justly reflected the general emotion. Conversation among the members turned on no other topic. Mr. Gladstone's re? ply, while declining absolutely to commit the government to any opinion or declaration whatever, betrayed In manner mere than in words an unmistakable apprehension that the document might prove authentic. His answer was given with pale face and hesitating lips. When he sat down the House felt that Eng? land's relation with the continental trouble had grown suddenly close if not alarming. To the mention of Belgium the House responded with an unwonted thrill of sympathy, and a clear recognition of England's obligations to protect her. It ls understood that immediate communi? cations were made by the government to Its agents at Berlin and Paris, and that the French Government will have an Instant op? portunity to admit or deny its responsibility for the alleged treaty. It is believed here that If genuine its proposals are French, while its rej'BCtlou is due to Prussia. The copy of the Times ls thought to have been supplied from Berlin. It ls certain that the Times would not have published it unless on evidence deemed conclusive. It was said privately this afternoon In the House that the copy was originally offered to Earl Granville, but that he refused lt, the English Government preferring its suppression. There ls supposed to be an allusion to the same subject In Mr. Card well's answer to a-question in the House about breech-loaders, saying that great Importance was attached to the best guns being Immediately supplied to all the troops. The Dally News, which has brilliantly led the the opinion of England on war questions, will Bay in the morning: lc ls Impossible not to admit that the gravity of the present European crisis has tor al' neu? tra nations been Immensely increased by the publication of tho proposed treaty. It com? pletely expresses what everybody believes to be the favorite policy and cherished design of of the French Emperor. It is also a secret treaty against England in Its offer of a league offensive and defensive. As to Its genuine? ness, the public may be asked to suspend their Judgment, since Mr. Gladstone and Earl Gran? ville say that the two governments concerned will be compelled to speak. Supposing that lt was really proposed by France to Prus? sia, our imperial friend and ally is pre? sented in an aspect not calculated to wir hock English sympathy with his course. Napoleon was ready not only to throw over our alliance for a better one,' but to break lt any moment by a military advance into Bel? gium, not only In direct Infraction of our friendship, but in defiance of our power. It is difficult to believe there was so much bad faith. Did Prussia also listen to such a proposal ? There is a certain insolence of tone toward Prussia in the document, suggesting that li sent it was a kind of ultimatum. No real in? ducement was held out to Prussia Meantime the whole political Interest of the moment is concentrated on this publication. We should be glad to have the completest assurance that no such proposal was known to either government. Public opinion In this country Es already sufficiently weighty in Prussia's fa? vor, but this treaty would moke our neutrality difficult If not impossible." Earl Granville will make a statement In the House of Lords on Thursday as to the diploma? tic negotiations which preceded the outbreak of the war, and the part the English Govern? ment took. The Affair at Jfelderbronn. PARIS, July 26. The Journal Officiel this morning says that Marshal Leboeuf late last night telegraphed the Emperor that General Bernis hod repelled a reconnaissance of the Prussians near the town of Neiderbronn, twenty-six miles northwest of Strasbourg. One officer, a Bavarian, was killed, and two made prisoners. La Liberte announces that the Journal Officiel will publish to-morrow the correspondence between the French and Italian Governments, In which the first steps are taken for the solu? tion of the question of the occupation of Rome. La Liberte promises that the documents will create a sensation. It shows that the Italian Government has not even asked for the with? drawal ot the French troops, but France has taken the initiative to that end. The Paris Presse complains of the extreme rigor with which Frenchmen in Germany are treated, while Germans in France are In no way molested br restricted. La Liberte reports that the Empress has said the only end the war can have is victory for France. The Journal Officiel publishes a dispatch from the Duke de Grammont, addressed to the diplomatic representatives of France, refuting the statement made by Baron Werther that no mention had been mode of the candidature of Prince Leopold previous to the late offer of Prim. Grammont appeuds a letter from Count Benedetta, dated March 31, i860, stating that he had been assured by the Cabinet at Berlin that there was nothing serious in the report; that lt was possible an offer of the throne might be made to a Hohenzollern. Madame Ratazzi died yesterday al Florene**; Italy. NEWS PROM WASHINGTON. WASHINGTON*, July 28. Admiral Farragut ls very sick. In the present unsettled condition of the mails, diplomatic communications go by spec? ial messengers. These messengers have been dispatched since the commencement of the complications. The dispatches carried, it ls said, have no extraordinary significance. The customs for the week ending July 16 were over three and a quarter million. ' The President writes that he will not call an extra session unless European hostilities make it necessary. He goes to St. Louis in a few days. Th? 8tate Department ha3 advices from C. N. Gouldiag, Consul, to the following effect, dated Hong Kong, February 9: ui have the honor to report that the French bark Ville de Sattes, Dubois, master, ? sailed hence to-day with two hundred Chinese emigrant passen? gers for New Orleans. This is probably the first emigrant ship which has sailed from China to the east coast of the United States. These people are sent by the Arkansas Elver Valley Immigration Company, to be employed at plantation or farm work in the valley of the Arkansas River. They have been subjected by me to a vigorous and rigid examination as to Lhelr knowledge of the country they were going to, the wages, Ac, they were to receive, and the length of time they were expected to remain. Each individual was personally exam? ined by the colonial surgeon as to his health and fitness to undertake the voyage. The pro? visions were carefully Inspected by the har jaster-In fact, all the requirements of the ) authorities were compiled with. They left this port free and voluntary emigrants, and were not only willing but anxious to go. -? THE NORTH CAROLINA OUTRAGES. RALEIGH, July 28.

THE PORT BOYAL RAILROAD IN\ TROUBLE. Shameful .nal treatment or Laborers. [From the Augusta Constitutionalist, -July 27.] Yesterday a large number of ha o da recently employed on the Angosta division of the Port Royal "lt i ?lroad, having ceased work, reached this city, and were congi egat ed around the office of Messrs. George JD. Chapmau A Co., contractors, on Ellis street, clamorous for the payment of the wages due them for o je or two months' labor, wbicb, however, they failed to tret. The condition of tuese laborers, as they represent, and as their appearance indicates, truly appeals to the sympathy of the com? munity. Many of them are ia a strange oity, without money and without food, their physi? cal powers m a measure exhausted by the heavy labor tn which they have been engaged during the recent heated term. One of these unfortunate men, doubtless under the com? bined effects of a wart of food and the despair produced by tbe condition in which he found himself, sank down upon the pavement near the contractors' office, from which position he was taken by a carnage kindly fdrnished by Alderman Pouroelle, and conveyed to the City Hospital for treatment. Application was also made in the cause of others, not quite reduced to toe same extremity aa that of the man above referred to, bat in a situation from which only inhumanity could turn withoutsvmpathy. From the muttering of the laborers, black and white, for the payment of their hard earned claims, and their seemingly exoited gestures as they were crouped contiguous to the office of the contractors, apprehensions were aroused tbat the cry ot ."bread or blood" might be raised against the contractors. In? formed of the state of affura, as a measure of precaution, Chief of Police Christian and Lieutenant King visited the vicinity twice or thee times daring the day and conferred with the seemra* leaders among tbe laborers, who pledged rheir exertions against a row in the otty. The laborers acquiesced in preserving the peace and good order of the city, and for hungry men they certainly behaved well, in view of the faot that they were justly i o censed by a failure to receive the money for which they had labored so hard. Tbe laborers bring intelligence that the nandi on this end of the road f jr at least a distance of twenty-one miles from tho etty, to the number of about two or three hundred, have ceased wont, in consequence of rations and pay giving out, and are now straggling as beat they can to differ en; points ia quest of j fqod and labor, the larger number moving to- ' wards this city. [From the Augusta Chronicle.]. Mr. Chapman, we understand, denies that he owes tbe men any money, and claims that Schaub A-Lawton ?re their debtors. There cav i>9 no doubt that these laborers have been foattod very badly. Brought to the line of the !'ort Royal Railroad from distant parts of the country, they have labored for their employers and yoi received nothing for their labor. They have been defrauded of their time and wort, and then turned adrift to shift for themselves. Certainly tberejhas been gross mismanage men t -to call it by no harsher term-of the affairs of tho Port Boyal Railroad Company, and the drat year's operations have been anything but creditable to the corporation. Tbe men who have had ob&rge of the work are George I). Chapman & Co., and it is these parties whom the destitute laborers held responsible for the shameful manner in which they have been treated, and tbe pitiable condition to which thev have been reduced. With Ute quarrels and law snits between Mr. Chapman and other parties these poor workmen have had and can have nothing to do They claim that they were employed by Chapman or his agents, that they have labored faithfully for Chapman and looked to him tor their pay, and yet whon they did not receive their money and carno to thia city to demand it, they have had the door .shat in their faces, and are left to sit down in their raga aDd.attera apon the carbston?, and. while a Joly san pours its barning beams upon their heads, to reflect upon the unreliability of "large Northern capitalists" who come South for the sole purpose of ' developing oar re? sources and banding up the country." It was stated on yesterday that Mr. H. H. Boody, the treasurer of the corporation, we believe, wonld reach the city on l-"t night. We hope if he bas come be will see to it that the first thing he does is to have tbe unfortu? nate workmen paid the money which their labor has earned. BU8INESS NOTICES.
