Facts for the Ladies.— John Sibley deposed; 
I must declare tho Wheeler & Wilson to be the 
most wonderful and comprehensive sewing 
moolianism ever put in the American market. 
It is tho simplest as well as the most cunning In 
principle. There is genius and high mechanical 
ability in its arrangement, and therefore It is 
most reliable and easy to keep in order. There 
is a directness of connection between tho power 
and tho result, never found by mo iu the de¬ 
vices of any other inventor, and the mechanical 
results follow of tho highest, possible speed, 
quiet and easy movement, which make it a do 
light to mechanicians. I think it just, to deno¬ 
minate it one of the marvels of the age.

FOREIGN NEWS. 
The Frnnco-Prusginn Wnr, 
Hostilities since our last have Been prose¬ 
cuted with vigor, tho German forces crowding 
the French harder, if possible, than for some 
time previous. Prince Frederick Charles has 
succeeded, In a series of battles, in routing the 
Army of the Loire in detail. Inflicting upon the 
different bodies great loss of men and arms, and 
securing possession of several important towns. 
The Hessian forces, on the 7th inst., were pre¬ 
paring to move on Tours, and the French Gov¬ 
ernment was, of necessity, removed to Bor¬ 
deaux. On the 9th the Prussians were reported 
moving on Havre,nnd that a battle withoutany 
decisive result had occurred near the city. 
Freneli iron clads have been ordered to that 
port, to assist in the dofenseof the place. Boats 
have also been sent to the mouth of the Loire to 
protect shipping at St. Nazaire. Gambetta is re¬ 
ported as having meditated asking an armistice, 
that a National Assembly might, ho elected, upon 
which would devolve the responsibility of fur¬ 
ther struggles or peace proposals. One day later 
it is asserted the armistice would not be asked 
for. but that the war would be prosecuted with 
renewed vigor. 
On the llth, the Duke of Mecklenburg reports 
defeating the Army of the Loire at Beauguncy, 
talcing 1,500 prisoners and six guns; the remnant 
of the French army on the road to Bn urges 
captured or boatcu. The French were also re¬ 
pulsed in an attack on the Prussians at. Montll- 
vanlt near Blois. The French retreat, pursued 
by tho Second Army Corps, obstructed tho pro¬ 
gress of the Prussian forces by the large amount 
of stores, guns, arms and clothing, abandoned on 
the route. H is again announced from Berlin 
that the bombardment of Paris has been decided 
upon, from ’solely military reasons. On the 10th 
tho French made demonstrations oil the Prus¬ 
sian lines around the city without success. Gen. 
Muntcnffcl occupied Dioppo on the 9th. Ham 
aud St. Quention had lioou occupied by the 
French. Operations about Havre continue, and 
on the 12th the Prussians were witllfn IU miles of 
the city which was defended by it largo force, 
with 350guris manned by marines. The .Shipping 
Gazette editorially deplores tin: resolution of the 
French to defend Havre, as involving avast de¬ 
struction of property. Tim bombardment of Purls 
is reported as to bo commenced on the 19ih, and 
It is asserted that, the Prussian guns command 
every part of the city. Humors were in circula¬ 
tion iliat Garibaldi had resigned his position from 
not having received cordial support from the 
French officers. Pfalsburg, the stronghold iu tho 
Vosges, which has been besieged since tiie battle 
of Worth, capitulated on tho 12th. Count Von 
Bismarck has announced his intention to dis¬ 
regard the neutrality or Luxemburg, ulledgliig 
that their forbidding the transit of wounded 
German troops through their territory aud not 
stopping French fugitives rendered the occupa¬ 
tion of the territory a military necessity. A 
statement has gained credence that the King of 
Holland had assigned Luxtunbourg to Prussia, in 
November. Franco has consented to join the 
conference on tho Eastern Question. Tho Rus¬ 
sian minister at Constantinople asks further 
amendments to the treaty ol‘ Paris, and England 
Is reported taking further measures to preventa 
surprise where Russia Is mussing forces on the 
Turkish frontier.

A committee of tiie Italian Cabinet recom¬ 
mend the removal of tlm capital to Rome be¬ 
fore Jan. 1st, 1871. On the N. Midland Railway, 
Eng., on the 1.3th, by an accicent near Barnsley, 
fourteen persons were killed and twenty 
wounded. The Lord Lieutenant of Ireland de- 
clluoa to receive petitions for pardon of Feni¬ 
ans, us no good results arc possible. Ithus been 
officially announced that King William has ac¬ 
cepted the title of Emperor of Germany, and 
would return to Berlin after the capitulation of 
Paris. Tiie treaties witli the South German 
States have been confirmed. Tho news from 
China Is serious. Tho Government liuslu forma¬ 
tion of more hostile demonstrations on tiie 
Christians. The tone of the English press upon 
the Alabama claims is cairn and conciliatory, 
and a committee lias been formed In Loudon 
for the promotion of pcuce aud harmony be¬ 
tween that country aud tho United States. 
Demonstrations of riot in front of St. Peter's 
Cathedral, at Rome, were suppressed by the 
Italian authorities, a few persons only being in¬ 
jured. The mob used clubs uud knives, but had 
no firearms.
