Foreign Intelligence. BERLIN, August 31-Official.-The battles covered BO wide an area that de? tails are confused. It is oertain that the Prussians oaptured twenty canuon, eleven mitraillouse and 7,000 prisonors. BOUILLON, August 31.-Fighting com? menced at 8 o'clock, this morning. Tho French oaptured thirty gnus. No posi? tivo result oconrred. BOUILLON, September 1.-Yesterday, Bazaine drove tho Prussiaus towards Sedan. LONDON, September 1.-A Freuch frigate off Plymouth, after capturiug the Julius, waa soen Wednesday ut twilight in pursuit of a largo Gortnnn ship, which was making every effort to cs oape. Paris is again accessible from the city via Brussels. A Standard special, dated Flarvillo, Belgium, Thursday, A. M., says tko French have just been badly beaten ou the Sedan road. The Prussians entered Carequoua, two miles South-west of Floreuville. There was furious lighting all day on Wednes? day between Armiguey and Douzy. On Wednesday, the Grand Duke of Mecklenburg Sohweriu was at Vouzicrs with his army. The Crown Prince of Saxony passed through Valny, near St. Meurhold, with 100,000 men. Goueral Von Falkenstein was already at Bouzau ville, on the railroad, between Forbaoh and Thionville. PAWS, Septembor 1.-Tho commander nt Strasburg has announced the determi? nation of the peoplo to burn tho city rather than surrender. Tho Prussians have refused au appeal, lately made by citizens, to spare tho duelling part of the city, on the ground that it would de? fer capitulation. Tho same object dic? tated a refusal to permit the departure of women and children. Gen. Mattornngo (?), distinguished iu the Crimea and Italy, has been appoint? ed to command the Parisian National Guard, in place of General de Trou marre. Officials and citizens of Lille are de? termined to defend their walls with the same spirit as nt Avesues, Cambrea, Do? rai, Durkerguc, Valleucieuues aud Gravelines where the memories of "02 aro reviving. Strasburg letters continue to complain of the Prussiaus for tiring on the houses. Tho inhabitants clamor, "Death rather than surrender!" The besiegers employ prisoners on tho trenches. Strasburg and its citizeus aud garrisou are the themes of praise everywhere. The Bishops have iirged the commander to hold out till the last prayer is uttered, and thou retire to the citadel and raze the city rather than let the enemy enter. It ?B said that 200,000 Prussiaus have been killed and disabled since the war began. Tho Moniteur demands that municipal officers abandoning their posts be pun? ished. La Libarte, says tho Govern meut has received no official despatches of conse? quence, owing to tho interruption of the telegraph between Sedan and Mezieres, but it is certain that battles were fought on Tuesday and Wednesday. Tho first was a surprise, which resulted iu a par? tial panic in the corps d'armec of Gen. Failloy, who still commanded. There were also separate and detached conflicts, the troops displaying great heroism, but there was a want of unity during the engagement. The Prussiaus claim tho victory. In the battlo yester? day, there is no question that McMahou had great success against tho troops of both Princes. Bazaine was not engaged yesterday, but it is known that Bazaine continues the work to-day energetically begun by McMahou. BRUSSELS, September 1.-Reiuforce meuts have been despatched to the fron? tier to guard neutrality. VINERYS, Septomber 1.-A corps which passed through Paris, reached the battle? field yesterday, and is ?roubtless fighting now. PARIS, Septembor 1-Midnight.-In absence of official reports from tho com? manding generals tho Ministry published the following from thc multitude of de? spatches: From the various Belgian towus up to 8 o'clock, of tho 31st ulti? mo, the following details are extracted, which bear the character of probability: On the 30th a series of engagements oc? curred botwoen McMahou and the ene? my, near Mezieres, lasting from 8 A. M. to 8 P. M. Our troops were attacked from the wood heights of Storres, a posi? tion wo had recently evacuated. The at tack was vigorous and forced our troops to retrogade, but at 2 o'clock wo took the offensive, and retained it till 7 o'clock, when darkness ended operations. After night-fall, wo recrossed thc Meuse in order to form again, near Dockery, a few miles East of Mezieres. Tho en gagemouts in tho first day's fighting cost us cousiderablo losses, while in? flicting heavy losses on thc cuomy. The Prussians burned Mousson aud killed most of tho inhabitants. The noxt day, tho 31st, tho Prussians again took the offensive at 7 A. M. on thc left bauk of tho Meuse, between Douzy and Docke? ry. Our forces retreated slowly, until McMahon had drawn the Prussians into an auglo formed by thc ramparts of Sedan and the heights of tho left hank of tho river. Here the Prussiaus expe? rienced heavy losses and were compelled on account of the murderous firo to re? treat. They effected this about noou, withdrawing towards Villamantry, aud after several attempts placed themselves on tho opposito side of the Meuse. On the morniug of the 31st, McMahou crossed tho Meuso at Mousson. Everything in? dicates that the engagement will he re? sumed to-day. BERLIN, September 2-1 P. M.-Offi? cial uow8 is still bchiud, but it is kuown that a series of battles occurred on the 30th and 31st, both armies losing heavily. On Wednesday, tho Prussians were drawn under tho guns of Sedan, where they suffered terribly before they were able to cross tbe river. MoMahon moved to Moasson, Wednesday morning. Yes? terday, the encounters were probably renewed. BERLIN, September 2.-Tho following is from the King to the Qneonn: "SEDAN, September 1-8 P. M.-A battle has raged since half-past 8 o'clock this morning. Our forces have advanced victoriously. The fonrth, fifth and seventh corps, and tho Bavarians engag? ed tho enemy aud almost oatirely drovo thom to tho city." Tho French are at LaGhappello. LONDON, September 2-10 A. M. Paris despatches, this morning, claim that tho Prussians wcro repulsed in nn attack upon McMahon after ten hours sharp fighting. The Prussians attacked the Frcuch from front and rear. Tho French took thirty guns and many priso? ners. The Prussians are reported to have been driven towards Belgium. Auothcr despatch says tho Prussians were victorious, but it is not generally known. SEDAN, September 2.-Tho battle yesterday was bloody. 10,000 officers und soldiers of the Frouch army were forced iuto Belgium, where they were required to instantly surrender their arms. Great numbers of wounded were admitted into Belgium for humanity's sake. BRUSSELS, September 2.-The French that were disarmed in Belgium were seut to camp at Beverloo. PARIS, September 2.-General Ulrich, commanding Strasburg, says the fortress can and will hold out. The fortifications of Paris are mined with powder, and shuuld matters reach tho worst, can bo exploded at a moments notice. Thc Prussians lost heavily from sick? ness caused by privations. Positive news received state that McMahon and Bazaine communicate. Sharpshooters, with custom house officers, crossed tho Kin nu a few miles below Strasburg and captured five large boats containing valuable property. Tho journals all published letters corroborating French successes, but the Prussians aro so numerous that the bat? tles must bo resumed on a vast scale. Both received heavy reinforcements. It is asserted that the Kiug of Prussia is insane! and has beeu taken to Berlin. It is reported that a large French army, nuder General Doouxy, entered Baden. It is stated thal non-combatants were enabled to leave Strasburg by recently discovered subterranean passages. Calais aud St. Pierre will be put in a state of defeucc. LONDON, September 2. -A despatch from a private source, dated Wednesday, says after fighting all day Thursday, Bazaine was again driven to Metz. Both lost heavily. The Emperor's death is reported. No particulars. Tho London journals are sadly per? plexed by tho late war despatches. They say the encounter yesterday in rear ol Sedan, seem to have favored the French, but this nor nothing else will prevent the Prussiaus going to Paris. Wm. H. Kussel writes that last weok nothing could have prevented the Prussians from going to Paris, but now their ontrancc thero ?H hardly possible. Tho urgency of the Prussiaus to advauce on Paris ii attributed to the anxiety to get there bo fore the new rilled cannon arc mouuted, which are now concentrating from thc fleets. Expert? regard those guns ai murderous. The French Emperor, at? tended by Ulatou and other cmiuonl surgeons, is with Marshal McMahor, The French troops who eugaged thc Prussiaus at Altiguy, were reinforcements from Paris ou tho 27th and 28th foi Marshal McMahon, and were conveyed by rail from Paris to Bethel, and marobee theucc to Montmedy. Notwithstanding these troops wore fresh, they were routec by the Prussians. PARIS, September 2.-Palikao, in the Corps to-day. declared himself without official news from McMahou or Bazaine He had no communicatious to make. At the Bourse and in all circlos, fears arc expressed that thc French aro outnum bored, but advices via Belgium represon McMahou as successful aud Bazaine fulb supplied with provisions. STUTTGART, September 2.-Baroi Yarmbillor, Minister of Foreign Affairs has resigned, aud is succeeded by Couu Foo ta. The Conference of Bishops, which ha just closed, resolved never to submit ti tho iufallibilitj' dogma. Tho faculty atTribargue and Wnrtem burg are io accord with the Bishops.

Ho was poor, but honest, and his lifo was without reproach. The trouble with him was, that he felt ho was not appreciated. His salary was only four dollars a week, and when he asked to have it raised, the President and tho Cashier, aud tho Board of Directors glared at him through their spectacles, and frowned on him, and tuld him to go out aud stop his inso? lence, when he kuow business was dull aud tho bank could not meot its expenses now, let alono recklessly luvishiug one dollar a week more upon such a miseru hie worm as Sum ucl McFadden. And then Samuel McFadden felt depressed and sad, and the haughty scorn of the President aud Cushier cut him to tho soul. He would often go out in the ship-yard and how his vcaeruhle twenty four inch head, aud weep gallous and gallons of tears over his insignificance, and pray that he might he made worthy of tho Cashier's aud thc President's po? lite attention. One night, a happy thought struck him; a gleam of light burst upou his soul, and gazing down the dim vista of years, with his eyes all blinded with the mist of joyous tears, he saw himself rich, honored and respected. So Samuel McFadden fooled around and got a jimmy aud a monkey wrench, and a cross-cut saw and a cold chisel, and a drill, aud about half a ton of gunpowder and nitro-glycerin, and all those things. Then iu tho dead of tho night, ho went to the lire-proof safe, and, after working at it awhile, burst the door and brick work into immortal smash with such perfect success, that there was not enough of the safe left to make a carpet tack. Mr. McFadden then proceeded to load up with coupons and greenbacks, aud currency and specie, and to uail all the odd chaugc that was layiug around anvwhere, so that ho pranced out of the bunk with SI,000,000 on him. He then retired to au unassuming residence out of town, and scut word to tho detectives where ho was. It was all serene aud beautiful for Samuel McFadden now. ne felt that it was all right, at last, and that the dark night of sorrow had passed, and the bright rays ol' the SUD of prosperity at last illuminated his path. A detective called ou him tho next day with a sooth? ing note from the Cashier. McFadden treated it with lofty seora. Detectives called on him every day with humble notes from the President, and tho Ca? shier, and the Board of Directors, aud clerks, and stockholders. At last the bank officers got up a maguiticeut pri? vate supper, to which Mr. McFadden was invited. Became, and, a? the bauk otlicers bowed down in the dust before him, he p mdered over the bitter, bitter past, aud his soul was filled with wild exultation. (It seems to me that thc last sentence is symmetrical and poetic! It strikes me so, anyhow.) Before he drove away in his carriage that night, it was all fixed that Mr. McFadden was to keep $500,000 of that money, and to be unmolested if he re? turned tho other half. He fulfilled his contract liku on honest man; but refused, with haughty disdain the oiler of the cashier to marry his (McFadden's) daughter. Mac is now honored and respected. He moves in the best society; he browses aron ml in purple and fine liucn, and other good clothes, and enjoys himself first rate. And ufteu now he takes his infant son upon his knee aud tells him of his carly life, and instills holy pre? cepts iu the child's miud, and shows him how, by industry and perseverance, aud frugality and nitro-glycerin, and monkey wrenches aud eut upri.-e, aud crosscut-saws, and familiarity with the detective system, even tho poorest may rir.c to nllluence aud respectability. \N-.'ir York Commercial Advertiser.
