Napoleon demands from Prussia the French frontier by rectification of its extension to the Rhine, as it was marked prior to its disturbance in 1814. The military and naval prepa? rations which are l>eing carried on in France induced the belief that the Emperor will make war if his de? mand is not complied with. The demand has caused great excitement in Berlin. A semi-official journal in Berlin recommends Prussia to recon? struct Germany as far as possible on the basis of the preservation of the vital and constitutional rights of tlie States which are to be annexed to her. The Philadelphia Convention. PHILADELPHIA, August 12.-The j great wigwam for the National Con- ; vention will be completed by Tues? day. It is the largest structure ever built for a political gathering. A large number of delegates have ar- | rived. Revordy Johuson, Montgo- j mery Blair, Stockton, of New Jersey, Fernando Wood, Cowan, of Pennsyl- ! vania, and many other distinguished I persons, have arrived. The Execu-1 tive Committee have rooms at the j Continental Hotel. There was quite a stir, to-day, over j a report, in the New York Herald, that ; Governor Curtin, of Pennsylvania, i had secretly called for 20.000 militia, for service during the time of the j Convention, and that trouble will probably ensue. This is believed to ! be a canard. There is no reason to j suppose-tho Convention will be dis? turbed, notwithstanding the mis enlevons articles of some of the radi- ! cal press. General Dix or George j Ashburne, of Massachusetts, will pre side. PlIILADBLTT?L\, August 13.--Up Wards of 000 delegates to the Con vention have arrived. Among the ' most notieeablo persons are Thurlow 1 Weed, Dean Richmond, Secretaries j Randall and Browning, Gen. Steed man, Cornelius Wendell, Fernando Wood, Vallandigham, Governors Orr, ! Sharkey and Perry, A. O. P. Nichol son and Senator Outhrie. There is considerable excitement about the admission of Vallandigham, Wood and other peace Democrats. There is no reason, however, to doubt that1 all will be adjusted to-night. Fer- ; nando Wood will decline to go into the Convention, if necessary to the j harmony of it. Thc programme is yet unknown, but no third party will bo formed. The Convention will probably adopt a series of resolutions r endorsing the policy of the President and denouncing Congress, mid an address will bo issued to thc country, which will embody the principles set forth in tho call for the Convention. R. C. Winthrop, of Massachusetts, or Dix will preside. New? Items. NEW YOKE, August 12.-The deaths for the week were about 800-only throe cases of cholera. Yesterday, Nathaniel C.

Hex moat gracious and . pacific Ma? jesty, Queen Urama, ?pous? in bis day of King Kamehaha IV, arrived in ?ew ^0rx. oa "Wednesday, on the steamer -Java, m route, for home, after several months spent in England, en? deavoring, unsuccessfully, to collect money. The Herald says: V She has been making a sisterly call, aa A queen and s widow, npon Queen Victoria, and low had a royal time, of il as the recipient of ibo hospitalities of England's rojal.family and no? bility, Q?ite Overshadowing, for ex? ample, the euihoress of Uncle Tom's Cabin and the Black Swan in the r honors received from the Duchess of Sutherland. Queen Emma, accord? ing to tho Engngh journals, is a fine, majestic, handsome, interesting, nmj ablo and accomplished woman, of the lightest and ?oftest complexion and in the pria* of Uf?. We have heard that her sympathy se a royal widow, . and that universal curiosity of her sex to see for themselves the celebri? ties of their day, carried this island queen from Honolul? all' the way to England, to pay her respects in per? son to the good and disconsolate Vic? toria. We are thus reminded of the famous journey, over 2,000years ago, of the Queen of Sheba to tho then splendid royal city of Jerusalem, to satisfy her curiosity as to the wealth and splendor, the gallantry and gran? deur, the wit anet wisdom, and the finery, fuss and feathers.of King Solo - uaon rn all his glory. -She had her reward, for after her gracions Majesty had enjoyed his imperial hospitalities and received his presents and bless? ing, she departed, with the declara? tion that not the half of King Solo? mon's splendors and merits had been told her. The Nsw York Exp reen, giving an account of the arrival of the Queen Dowager in Hew York, says: The reception ol the representa? tives ef our Government by the Queen was s private affair, arid occu? pied but a short time. Her Majesty and her suite were immediately trans? ferred from die Java to the Jessa? mine, the Queen's flag on the former was hauled down in token of fare? well, and the cutter sped on her way with her illustrious passenger. The Queen is accompanied and es? corted by Major Hopkins, on officer of the English army. A young English lady, Miss Luess Spurgen, travels -with her in the capacity of a lady friend. Her Majesty is also ac? companied by a man-servant and maid-servaut. These four persons comprise the suite. On reaching the city they proceeded to the Brevoort House, and in the afternoon they visited the Central Park. Tlie Queen is about 30 years of age, of the .medium size, of prepos? sessing appearance, has black eyes, black straight hair, and olive com- j plexion. She dresses in the latest style, and in manner and conversa- ; tion "is eyery inch a Queen." Emma is not a Queen Regnant; S she is the widow of the late King Kamchnha IV, who was succeeded by his brother, the present King Kame haha V. Queen Emma had one child, a little boy, -who died a short time be? fore his father. Emma is, therefore, Queen Dowager, and not having any affairs of State to engross her atten? tion-she being a sincere Christian has given her whole attention to thc propagation of the Gospel among her people. She is a member ol* the Episcopal Church, coincides with ami is an ardent supporter of the views entertained by the High Church party of England, and her mission to that country was to procure aid from that portion of the English Church. She made many friends there, who exerted themselves to the utmost in her behalf, and, in consequence, she received subscriptions to the amount of more than 850,000. R. S. Chilton, Esq., the represen? tative of Secretary Seward, bas ex? tended an invitation to her Majesty to visit Washington, which has been accepted, but no definite time has been set for her visit. THE KENTUCKY ELECTION.-Tho j Louisville Courier, of Wednesday, says : We publish in this morning's Courier, returns official and reported from forty-four Counties in the State, which foot up a majority for lin vail of 27,388 votes. The Democracy make a clean sweep, us not a single County yet reports a majority for Hobson. Tho nearest toit is Lewis County, in -which tho result is stated as doubtful. There are sixty-six Counties yet to hear from, many of which are small, but in localities claimed by thc radicals. The figures now indicate that the Democratic ma? jority in the State will exceed -10,000, and mny even reach or go beyond 50,000. PLANTING TS NORTH CAROLINA. -A gentleman just arrived in this city from tho extensve cotton plantations on Tar Uiver, North Carolina, speaks of the crops as promising exceedingly well. The planters aro Northern men, who have hired the land from the old proprietors, and pay the negroes a certain amount in cash, besides rations. Some of them, if there is no disappointment, will realize ut least 820,00D on the season's crop. The negroes work tolerably well, but they steal all they can got and spend all they can earn. [Journal of Commerce. Land is victorious over water Field over the sea. There are cheering indications that it is the parp?se of tho President, before long, to bow-string a number of the military satraps of tho radical party, and put conservative soldiers from West Point in their places. The Augean stable of the Freedmen's Bureau tsands sadly in need of cleans? ing. In many places where these agents of the Jacobins have been stationed at the South, they have lost no opportunity of exasperat? ing and goading our people almost to desperation. Far from attempting to promote kindly relations between the whites and the blacks, they have becomo partizans of the negroes, in shameful disregard of thoir duties as the members of an honorable pro? fession. Many of these men have utterly disgraced themselves by set-k ing to inflame the prejudices of the North against the South. If the report of the Reconstruction Committee vras submitted to a board of military gentlemen who had graduated at West Point, wo think they would, upon reading thc defama tory testimony against the South oJ many a military officer, "declare thal he had been guilty of conduct un becoming an officer and a gentle man," What would tho "old amn officers" think of an order to ai artist, in this city, to photograph th? back of a negro girl-which photo graph appeared the very next week ii that unclean journal, "?Harper* T r*ee?/y.v "-Rieh morid Tiines.
