The prefect pre-fect of the Lpper Rhine, in a dispatch to the minister of the interior, dated Colmor, 10:15 a.m., says there has been no movement on the banks of the lihine this morning. Gaulois says Pohkao tuts prepared a decree which, he will submit to the Emperor, ordering all Germans residing resid-ing in Paris to quit Prench soil within twelve hours after the receipt of a notice to that effect. All the English correspondents have returned from the front. They report they were in great danger of being hanged by the inhabitants, who believe ail foreigners are Prussian tpies, and thieateu ;heu with death. . Some of the papers say there is much talk in diplomatic circles of the inteivii t'on of t lie great powers for peace. Prance, says the Gaulois, cannot can-not accept such iim-i fere nee.

Lib-ert? has positive information that the imperial headquarters are no longer at Metz. Dispatches from the prefects of de-partm de-partm nts in all parts of the Empire are tilled with details of the patriotism of the people. Prom all sides volunteers volun-teers are coming forward. The Journal Vrncial says the war department has sixty millions of cartridges car-tridges for the guns with which the national guard is to be armed, ar-d preparations are made on an extensive sea'e for more to meet any emergency. The Monittu.- gives the following account ac-count of the death of General Donay, at the batt:e of Weissenburg : "Tlie Geneial was fioru ihe beginning in the ihicLestof the fight. When be eaw the day was lost, after he bad doue all he could to retrieve it, and when not even a battalion was left him, he called his aids one by one, gave them orders ai d seut ihem away. As soon as the ast was gone the General, spurring his hor?e, rode some distance to the froLt, dismounted and taking a pistol from his holste'r shot the animal. Then turning around he slowly walked toward to-ward the enemy. His soldiers vainly iried to stop him. Am'd the terrible fire he deliberately walked on. The retreating soldieis, aroused by the -peCMcle, turned aga'n upon the enemy, ene-my, but- i'ell in heaps around their General, who still pressed forward. Another tremendous discharge from the enemy, and Donay, almost alone, fed dead. The Courier ries Unix, ever a warm snppoiter of Napoleon, to-day speaks of him as declining and too feeble to hold the sword. We do not know, it says, any body, when there is a question ques-tion of the salvation, honor or grandeur gran-deur ot France. Let the power be trusted to whomsoever shall take it and in whatever form it may be best, a monarchy or a republic, but let them give us victory. London, Aug. 11. A special dispatch dis-patch from Carlsruhe to the Globe announces Strasbourg infested on all sides by the Prussians, who hold the r -ilway. Gen. Beyer who commands ' the ci v was summoned to surrender and refused. It is said the citadel is plentifully provisioned, and garrisoned by onlv one regiment of the line and the national guard of the place. Madrid, Aug. 11. Dissensions have broken out in the council of state. At the last sitting there was a violent scene between Senor Rosas, president of the council, and Gen. Prim. The news of the Prussian victory is recei'.ed with exultation by the radicals, radi-cals, who see in the d feat of Napoleon hopes for the restoration of a republic in France and consequently establishing establish-ing one in Spain. Monarchists are beginning be-ginning to lose confidence. London, Aug. 11. The King of Pi ussia has issued the following proclamation proc-lamation : ''We, William, King of Prussia, make known to all the inhabitants inhab-itants of lench territory occupied by German forces, that the Emperor Na poleon having by sea and land attacked the Get man nation, eager to live in peace with the Prench people, have taken command of the German armies to icpel aegnssion and by military events have been led to pass the Fren.h fiontiers. We war against soldiers, not citizens; therefore the latter may con inue secure in the possession pos-session ot' their property so long as they abstain from hostilities, and we tram them protection as a matter ot rinht. Generals commanding corps will decide what measures are ncccs -aiv toward individual communities vio'utii.'g the u-ages of war.
