THE LATEST NEWS
ABOUT THX AHBKST OF AMERICAN CITI
ZENS BY TBE PRUSSIAN OOVKKMEMT.
New Yoxk, Sept. 26 —The diffioulty
Arising out of the aerest in Prussia of
Germans who ha l beoome American citi
zens, for the non-performance of the
military serviao required by the (Prussian
laws, continues to excite attention in that
oountry. Von Bis Mark deolaies that tbe
oomtiiutioa imperatively requires every
subjeot of Prussia to perform military du
ty, and cannot be altered at pleasure by
the exeoutive authorities. Assuming this
sta’emeni to be correct, the only way to
relieve naturalized American citizens from
the obligations whioh they are ooneidered
to be under towards the land of their
birth would be tha oonoluelon of a treaty
between the United ;dates and Prussia to
that effect. Hitherto suoh persons have
generally been released from the compul
sory military service to whioh they are
subjected, but only after a great deal of
trouble, and out ot speoial regard for the
United States government, on its repre
sentations, aud not in virtue of their
l ights as American citizens The Herald's
Berlin correspondent believes that if a
uonvrmion to this effect were submitted
to thu Prussian Legislature it would be
passt-ibyaa immense majority, os the
Liba si party are extremely desirous of
beinft on friendly terms with tho great

Kiellcmtftt at Baavllls, Kentucky-
Four Negrocft Shot.
The Louisville Democrat of the 224,
records the following:
We learned, yesterday, that during the
fair at Danville, Ky., an affray occurred
between some negro soldiers and the olti
tens of the place, whioh for a time oreated
a great deal of exeitement. The particu
lars, as near as we can learn, were as fol
lows : At the amphitheatre, on the fair
grounds, four negro soldiers were prom
enading around among the white |people.
The Marshal, named Moore, a returned
Confederate, went to them, and told them
to go around and occupy a place amongst
the negroes on the premises.
Three or four started willingly, but the
fourth grew somewhat stubborn, and was
being pushed down stairs by Moore and
another gentleman, when the negro drew
bis pistol and fired, shooting a gentleman
in the breast Tha negro got with the
other three, and by this time the citizens
grew excited, and hunted up the negroes.
They found them, and a general fight
took place. The negroes emptied their
pistols at the citizens, but they were eaoh
of them shot, and it Is said, dangerously
wounded. There was a general “clearing
out” of the colored population at the fair,
or no doubt others would have fared bad
ly in the hands of the excited oitizens.
That day, and during the excitement, a
company of negroes were ordered to go
from Camp Nelson, through Danville, to
some other point A rumor spread
through the town that a regiment of ne
groes were “marching on the town.”
The excitement took a rise, and the oiti
zens prepared to meet thorn with guns,
pistols, Ac. Gen. Brisbia happened to
arrive, and told the citizens if they attack
ed the negroes they would be fighting
their own government, and that no regi
ment was marching on the town. This
somewhat dampened the excitement, and
dispersed the oitizens: otherwise, there
would have been “somebody hurt.”
Gen. Terry hae ordered all the colored
troops out of Richmond.
