jjpw Obleass, October 27.—An officer of
Gen. Bosseau’s staff sent to St, Bernard Par-
yesterday reports tbat the bodies of the
Spanish baker and his son that were mur-
iiered on Sunday night by negroes, were
burned in his house. The women and chil
dren were saved, he conld learn of no women
or children killed. Two companies of, in-
to try are still in the Parish, but away from
the vicinity of the troops fighting between
races still reported. An attack on the
troops sentto that Parish, reported to head,
quarters was entirely false.
At a late hour last night a white man was
tilled in the first district in this city, and
another in the second. The latter belonged
to a club composed of Spaniards, Portuguese,
Italians and French, who were much exas
perated, and between whom and the negroes
sereml fights occurred to-day, resulting in
the death of one and the wounding of several
of both colors.
The Metropolitan police being utterly de
moralized, troops have been stationed through
the city to prevent any serious conflict
Governor Warmouth has issued a procla
mation requesting the abstinence by both
parties from further public processions or de
monstrations, until after the election.
The negro policemen having failed for two
days to report for duty, every one of them
have been discharged. About one hundred
whites, appointed yesterday and to-day, are
in their places, many, of them old members
of the force, some of them discharged United
States soldiers.
To-night two hundred citizens will be sworn
in as specials and placed on the streets until
the force is completed.

“New Orleans, October 27.
“General: The evidence is conclusive that
the civil authorities in the Parishes of Or

to preserve order, and protect the lives and
property of the people. The act of Congress
prohibiting the organization of the militia in
this State, strips me of all power to sustain
them in the discharge of their duties, and I
am compelled to appeal to you to take charge
of these Parishes, and to use your forces to
that end. If you respond favorably to my
request, I will at once order the sheriff’s and
police forces to report to you for orders.
“Very respectfully,
“Your obedient servant,

Secretary Schofield’s reply, which has been
telegraphed to the press, was received to-day,
but Gen. Buchanan’s troops have been in the
city since yesterday. The Parishes named
by Gov. Warmouth constitute the metropoli

the Legislature. The same act deprived
Mayors, Sheriffs, and all constituted civil au
thorities of all power to act in the preserva

The Best Families of Paraguay the
Victims—Summary of tbe Situation.
[Correspondence N. Y. Herald.]
Buenos Ayres, .Sept. 13, 1868.
The war of Paraguay is ” closing with the
bloodiest chapters of history. The defence by
Lopez of his native-land, rising to grandeur
when it has beenyfuaTked by justice, is now
assuming the relentless cruelty and heartless
ness of the tigers of the same jungles. It ap
pears now, as the curtain rises on the interior,
that the-unanimity of the Parguayans was
not only from ardent love to Lopez, but also
' from intelligent fear of him. His rule as
President has been absolute, and as occasion
offered be has not shrunk from inflicting
>unishments of any, kind or degree. We
lave beard rumors of recent conspiracies
against him, but now we have the sanguinary
details.
While the Paraguayan army was at Tebieu-
ari, on July 1, Lopez heard of an extensive
conspiracy against him at the capital, Asun
cion. He first called to his camp the com
mander of the post, Captain GOmez, who was
conveyed’in irons,'examinedby torture and
died tinder its infliction. Colonel Denis, of
Cerro Leon, was next arrested, and he
and all his subordinates were shot. On the
same day two brothers of Lopez arrived at
headquarters in chains, and the aid-de-
camp of one of them was instantly excuted.
Many of the principal men of Asuncion
were involved, and large numbers of them
were summarily executed. All Argentines
and all citizens of Uruguay found at Asun
cion were shot. Two men of Corrientes es
caped. The Bishop was placed under arrest
in his own house, and three priests were ar
rested and tortured to elicit the truth. These
atrocious crimes drove some to seek shelter
in the United States legation, but they were
tom out and fared no better for tbe protec
tion of the Stars and Stripes. The first batch
of prisoners led out for execution consisted
of fifty persons of the best families, and from
among the early and fast friends of Lopez.
For the next eight, or ten days the executions
were frequent, and among them were many
foreigners, and even the vice Consul of Por
tugal until the brutal soldiery reveled in their
bloody work and heaped insults of every kind
on the suspected. The executions were pre
ceded and attended by tbe most incredible
cruelties and tortures.
At Tebicnari fort, after it had been aban
doned, the. allies, found 300 bodies recently
killed by various modes, arid half juried in a
ditch. They were bodies of white persons,
and the delicate hands and feet indicated that
here the best Paraguayan blood had been
shed by Paraguayan hands. Also at San Fer
nando were found sixteen bodies tnore of the
same kind. The Vice Consul of Portugal and
other foreigners were dragged out of the of
fice from under the flag of the United States
Legation. Since the arrest of President Lo
pez’s two brothers they have not been seen
at large, and it is supposed tbat they are al
ready executed or are incarcerated in one oi
the subterranean dungeons with which that
country-has abounded for tbe last fifty years.
It is said that all the married sisters of Lopez
as are also a large number
country.
_ condi-
tionof"tbe country, and are a sad reverse of
the heroic defence made for these three years
by the Paraguayans. '
The present state of,things maybe very
briefly given, j Lopez, with the remnant of
his forces, about thirteen thousand men and
about sixty guns, is at Villeta, Abqnt forty
leagues from Humaita. The fortification made
on the right bank of the river Tebicuan was
abandoned by him and nfterward^ a smaller
one at 6an Fernando. On September 8th all
the allied' forces left Pilar, their recent head
quarters, and crossed the river Tebicuan.
The land on the other side of this river is
more solid, while generally on this side it is
continuous swamp and impenetrable jungle.
The war is now hear its termination, small
stocks of supplies are kept, as no one knows
what day the caving mjnay occur. One thmg
is no w certain—the free navigation of the Par
aguay river is secured beyond all hazard, and
Bolivia has egresB to the sea.

A Letter from Cl&ancellai- Lipscomb to
the Sophomore Class of the University,
of Georgia.
[From the Southern Christian Advocate.]
Gentlemen: My_ visit to “Pompef” was
so interesting that I have concluded to pre
pare a short narrative of it for your class.
I rose early this morning to see Vesuvius
under the dawning day. From the sharp
cone that formed the lofty summit, the white
smoke was ascending in masses which widen
ed and rolled in, the one upon the other, as
they floated off to the sky. Last night, the
intermittent flashes of flame from the top,
and the girdle of. fire, which the mountain
wore upon its side fronting Naples, made it
look terrible. But this morning and- :all
through the day the smoke curled upwardly
in wreaths soft and graceful, as though it
were a volume of incense from an altar of
jiving, while the sunshine hid the rud
dy glow of tiie lava beneath its more'brilliant
splendor. ' *
After breakfast, carriage and guide being
ready at the appointed time, we started for
Pompeii. Mile after mile through the city,
along the crowded and jammed and piled up
streets; great rows of shining and flashing
houses on either side, and between them a
packing together of donkeys, mules, vehicles,
and all sorts, sizes, and shades of people;
screams, yells, shouts, and all other outbursts
of sound possible here arid impossible any
where except here] every" driver cracking his
whip so as to ontdo every other driver; a me
nagerie of goats with bells, and asses bray
ing at the highest pitch of possibility; a ran-'
mad bedlam of itinerant pedlers, and beg
gars drumming on their .chins and chaunting
heir beseechings for money, and Punch in
ds paradise, and drams and horns; this.was
nitride through the gayest, wildest, motliest,
and withal most picturesque city on earth.
The whole population seemed to have turned
out of doors;"familieswere keeping house, in
the streets; women knitting, sewing, washing
in the streets; blacksmiths and all kinds of
workmen at their trades in the streets; the
whole making an uproar and a tumult on a
scale of facetious variety inimitable, which,
like the inany-hued and landscape of Naples,
once seen, lies in the mind undisturbed for
ever.
Through these long avenues of people wc
gradually passed into thoroughfares more
quiet. But the great shadows of Vesuvius
hung over us all the way, relieved, however,
by smiling fields and the sunny surface of
the beautiful bay; the- former fringing its
graceful slopes, and tbe latter curving around
its majestic base. When we left the carriage,
obtained our tickets, and passed within
the entrance that led to Pompeii, the sudden
change to silence and solitude was like leav
ing one world for another.
Pompeii lies about thirteen miles from Na
ples. Its situation must have been surpass
ingly fine, the luxuriant plains stretching off
on two of its sides, the river Sarnus flowing
through its midst, and the sea, loveliest of
seas, near by with its caressing waters. Ve
suvius was but five miles distant. The cijy,
indeed, was built upon a bed of lava which
the mountain in some remote age had poured
forth. Yet the volcano had been quiet so
long that no one feared it; and as tbe posi
tion of the city offered unusual advantages to
trade, as well as presented, the highest attrac
tions to culture and taste, it early became the
resort of wealth and luxury. Although a-Ro
man city, Pompeii belonged to that portion
of Italy ealled Magma Grecia, and its pecu
liarities were largely shaped by the spirit of
Greek civilization. It was visited by an
earthquake A. D. 63, and overwhelmed by
an eruption of Vesuvius in the year 79. For
nearly 1,700 years it lay buried under ashes.
Since 1755 the work of excavation has been
going on, though not regularly.
It contained about 25,000 irihabitants. Its
walls, which were twenty feet thick and the
same height, were, I should suppose, rather
more than two miles in circuit. These walls
had five gates; the principal one was called
the “Gate of Herculaneum,” and stood at the
point where the Appian way touched the city.
My first walk was along the “Street ol the
Tombs.” This is outside of the wall, and
leads to the “Gate of Herculaneum.” I felt
very strangely when I entered the House of
Diomedes. If you have read the “Last Days
of Pompeii,” by Bulwer, you can understand
why my feelings were so singular. To take
a stroll through an almost perfect Roman
honse; to see all its arrangements; to tread
upon its marble floors, look into its bed cham
bers and stand in its reception hall; to go
down into its cellars, around its gardens and
among its baths, is one of those intensely
vivid things that the distant past rarely per
mits you to enjoy. I entered through a nar
row passage (vestibriluin) into the hall
(atrium) and thence into the bedrooms, con
nected by doors with this hall. The cham
bers were quite small—not larger than the
little dormitories in old college—and they
had no windows. I saw the other apart
ments. It waH a sort of double house—one
set of rooms for summer and one for winter.
Like most of the private edifices, it was one
story. The wine cellar below was quite large.
A back wall surrounded three sides of the
area, within which was the gardens.
Down in the gloomy cellar I was shown
where skeletons were found huddled together.
The ashes swept in on the inmates of the
house, who probably hurried to that place for
protection, but the mighty rain, black and
tempestuous, chased them there arid closed
compactly around them. The impression of
the skeletons is pointed out. But it is not as
clear as that of the comic mask in the theatre
of Herculaneum. I never saw anything more
perfect than this. The. molted lava caught it
and hardened around- it; and there are the
mimic features all complete! .
Then I crossed the street and saw the fami-
ly burial ground. Then- other places of inter
ment. The Romans loved to put their tombs
on the side of the public roadB. Hundreds
of these sepulchres may be seen in;Ttaly.
I went into these hill-side vaults. The urns
were there containing the ashes. I saw a
place sealed up, and on the marble face tbe
name of children engraved; and I thought of
the time long ago when in the morning twi
light their fair forms were burning under the
waving cypress. .
Outside the gate are various objects of an
interesting kind that illustrate Roman life.
Cicero’s Villa, so-called, is on this street.
The pillars are in the same style of so much
of the building seen in old Rome—two rows
of very thin bricks andthen'a.block of Vtufa,
which is a volcanic rock. ' Hot far off, m a
semicircular edifice, a line of rock seats with
in, which was, used by travellers who- chanced
to remain without the walls at night. Close
by is the honse for the guards. . The sentry-
box is also- standing. Passing these you
reach the Heroulaneum gate, which has a
central archway twenty feet high and fifteen
feet wide* Through this you eqter Pompeii.
It is Pompeii still, so natural, so lifelike.
The long streets shine in the sunj the houses
stretch away in regular tines; the walks ring
freshly to your steps—Pompeii yet. But in
a few moments yon realize all—-the ghostly
form and the pale, blanched look and toe ;
hushed stillness—a city lifted from its. huge
sarcophagus, its burial sheet unwound, and
the miracle of the resurrection before jyour
eyes, clear, bold, startling—-Pompeii dead,
but living again. 1 Is not this the wonder- ot
the age? , %
And then I wandered on, half awake ana
half dreaming. The streets are verynairow,
many of them being mere alleyB. . "We have
two professors in the University who could
manage some of them at a angle step. Mow
vehicles passed in most of them I was nnab e
to see. But they are finely paved. The
blocks used for this purpose are generally
about the size of a barrel-head, ana are fi™-
ly imbedded in the ground- to tlle _ more
frequented parts of _cify, these bfooto
bee* marks of wheels, and between-toe euro-
stones that markfthe footways on dhe sides
there are raised stenmng stones at the inter-
care for health and comfort must have-been
^required not only’by the warmth of the cli
mate and the danger of malaria, but by the
densely crowded houses which must have oc
cupied all the available space. ... -
The shops are quite diminutive. - Most of
them are neat little band-boxes in comparison
with'Gmr stores, yet always strongly built and
conveniently arranged. -I saw a baker’s shop,
in which the.mills.for grinding are still stand
ing, and, at one end of the room, abate,
oven as much-r like a Dutch oven as Holland
oi* Pennsylvania could show* A shop for the
sale of. wine and oil exhibits the counter con
taining large bottles or jars, while at the side
is a range of shelves used, for- glasses.
Loungers at these places must have been
poorly accommodated. But the habit of the
> Pompeiians was to lounge in tbe sunshine
and open air. Evidently they were an out
door people. The dwellings ate generally
houses, not homes, or at least not homes as
we understand the term. Those domestic
arrangements' we consider so essential to the
privacy of individual members of the house
hold were foreign to their habits and tastes.
Family life as such seems to have been con
fined to common wants and very simple con-
vemences. Where wealth allowed it, provis-
ionrwas very fully made for company, though
the number of guests entertained on any one
occasion must have been small.
Among the largest and most showy houses
are those of Sallust and Pans*. The former,
taking its name from the inscription C. Sal
lust, M. F.j on the outer wall, covers a ser
vice estimated at forty yards square, while
thelatter, including tiie space of the garden,
occupies an area over three hundred feet by
one hundred and twenty^one. In all this
class of mansions the atrium is" promi
nent. Decorative art is never wanting for
its adornments A few feet from the walls
that bound the inner line of the chambers
and private rooms pillars are generally seen, .
sections of streets, on winen foot passengers
stepping s to:
* o^ets, on which
crossed. The names of these thoroughfares
are quite characteristic, such as Mercury, For
tune; and judging from their appearance, I
should infer that they were laid ont with spe-
cial-reference to drainage and -cleanliness.
Sewers and culverts aje stiU visible. Su<
and In tbe centre of tessellated pavement, ly
ing within the ornamental columns, is a mar
ble reservoir for water, (impluvium or complu-
viutn.) Over this basin the roof was open,
though it might be closed by an awning.
Beyond the atrium are other apartments
connected with a colonnade, among them
the eating hall and the picture gallery.
Frescoes are very commonly seen on toe
walls. Statuary abounded in these minia
ture palaces. Elegant tastes, whose memo
rials are still fresh and beautiful, appear in
paintings and other forms of embellishment.
At every turn mosaics meet the eye. I saw a
shell-work grotto that was very striking.
Fronting the, little garden at'the rear of the
house, its arch, fountain, basin, were elabo
rately finished in the best style of art. On
the pavement of the vestibulum yon would
sometimes see “Salve," “Ace,” in laige let
ters of mosaic work, and on the floor of the
“ Tragic Poet's House”' I saw the place where
the mosaic of the Dog had been found. On
a subsequent visit to the Museum, 1 look a
special interest in this dog. By no means a
handsome dog, nor is toe mosaic fine ;' but
“ Cave Canem ’’ in good large letters under the
animal, gave me, together with his chain and
look, a bad opinion of him and a good opin
ion of his master, the “ Tragic Poet,” who
doubtless thought that dogs ought to be ban
ished from tragedy. Your professor and my
self .have great respect for that poet.
On the whole, these houses would not have
suited either your Professor or yourselves.
The cold floors, the absence of chimneys, the
substitution of the brazier for tbe hospitable
hearth, would not have accorded with your
notions. I am of the same way of thinking.
If we had been Pompeiians, wo should have
undoubtedly boarded with the baker who had
a big chimney and a big bake oven.
But to see "the genius of Pompeii one must
see the public edifices. Everywhere in them,
the Roman idea of vastness, strength and en
durance is plainly visible, while at the same
time, the ornamental figures, such as the
Bacchantes arid the Fauns and the frescoes of
arabesques, show the dominancy of the Greek
taste. Around the -Forum most of the tem
ples are situated. Here are the Temples of
Jupiter, of Fortune, of Venus;, and also toe
Pantheon:: and. the Basilica. And grand
they mast have been, with, their courts and
statues, their pillars and porticoes, for they
are grand even now in ruins. Some of the
altars, with their panels of carved figures,
are surpassingly fine. As I walked around
them or leaned upon their marble slabs, now
bare and cold, and read their inscriptions, it
was an hour for the vivid recall of those facts
which these symbols suggested. The whole
scene at this point was most suggestive.—
Situated at a distance of four hundred yards
from the Herculaneum Gate, thePornm com--
mended a.brilliant view of Vesuvius and the.
Apennines, while near at hand broke tbe in
coming waves of the finest bay in the world.
Slopes and plains; terraces that nourished
the froitfol vine; fields where nature was pro
digal of all her choicest gilts, and art was
equally lavish with her magnificence; all lay
as a gorgeous outspread before and around.
Through what an atmosphere, so soft, so
clear, so transparent, these things were Been,
and over all what a firmament bent with its
arch, varying in hue from horizon to zenith,
and shedding down upon land and sea the
same changing tints of splendor, no one can
ever know unless he has stood as I stood in
winter on this spot, and has seen for himself
the most resplendent panorania that the earth
presents... . ’ . ,
But. the hours were passing too fast for
quiet contemplation. I saw the baths, each
apartment almost perfect, the series of cold,
tepid, and steam baths giving a complete
view Of the arrangements. Then to the thea
tre, (tragic) which accommodated 5,000 per
sons and less injured than other buildings;
then to the comic theatre close by; then to
the great amphitheatre, holding 10,000 spec
tators. This is.the third amphitheatre I have
examined, and in soirie minor details differs
from the others.
After this tour I glanced at the barracks, a
large enclosure 184 bjr 137 feet One thing
of leading interest only remained, and this
was the process of - excavation. The depth of
the dirt which-btiried the city as from twenty
to twenty-five fecit It is of a dark gray color,
and is rather like fine gravel than ashes. It
pulverizes easy; not much effort seemed ne
cessary for its removal. Along the level plain
resting upon the unexcavated part a simple
railroad has been constructed, by which the
dirt is carried off , Only about one-seventh
of the city bag been disinterred.
How would you feel if yon stood on a plain
of green grass and looked down into rooms
and halls with friescoed sides, watching a
column as it rose into the light lost eighteen
huri'dred'-years ago, arid seeing the inarble
tobies around which beauty, and talent, and
wit used to gather, ■ tiffed up and ont into a
recovered world ? How would you feel if you
beheld every sort of domestic article—com
mon implements,:furniture, kitchen utensils,
toilet bottles, candelabra, vases, jewelry, all
dug up by spade and shovel? And-then
skeletons of men and women once here, and
once prond, happy, content with the fugitive
hour, and heedless of the dark and dooming
to-morrow ? I tow foiir ffifoletoris living under
glass covers (found some time since), and
supposed to be a family overtaken by destruc
tion in toeir • own'home. Are--they father,
mother, and two'sisters? Whether so omot,
I never saw the human outline wear snOh an
aspect of terrible tragedy. The uplifted arm,
the palm of the hand .heavenward; and. the
figure of one of the girls, her face down and
leaning upon her left wrist; nothing I had
previously seen gave me such ’a'profound
sense of the awful calamity that had hurried
ly swept away Pompeii out of existence.
: Strange that the ashes which entombed fhe
city should have preserved it so perfectly.
Did ever Egypt embalm tike this ? The huge
•mummy, how well it was shrouded arid laid
away in its sarcophagus! And here is its form
unwrapt-—the winding-sheet is off, and the
pale spectre looksup’ and confronts toe Mount'
of Fire, under whose quick, scorching, tu
multuous blasts. its-life, trade, homes, tem
ples, religion—its many sins and.sorrows—its
gaieties and - hopes and brightness—all were
sepulchred together.. The old heathen faith,
all unawares to itself, made fearfully true at
the last—the consuming flame .of the funeral
altar—andYesuviue, the mighty Torch Bearer,
to ignite .the sacrifice! But there were no
chaplets, no incense, no lamps, no sprinkling
of mourners from the laurel branch, no
“Dicet,”.no “Salve Etemum V'
Attempted to Murder.
An atrocious attempt at murder was made
by negroes, six miles from. Smithfield, N. C.,
last week. A correspondent of the Messenger,
gives the facts thus:
*“ A msri by the name of Todd Tuns a steam
saw mill for Messrs. Wilson & Waddell, about
one mile from tbe N. C. railroad, and is in
the habit of going about his work very early;
and. on yesterday, as is his custom, he went
down to the mill with a torch tight'to'fire up
by day or a tittle before, and when he-was in
the act of starting .the fire, a negro, one of
the bands about the. mill and well known to
Todd, stepped from behind the boileri say
ing, as he advanced upon Todd, “ yon are the
damned rascal that told me that I would-have
been, hung if I had hit that damned little
white boy with the axe toe other day,” arid
almost instantly striking him a heavy blow
with a large stick upon the hea.d, felling him
instantly to the earth. This, lie, the negro,
rapidly followed up .with several blows-‘on tiie
forehead -and shoulder-blades and bruising
him in a inanner so horrible as scarcely to
leave life. \ The negro then jumped upon
Todd and crit from his pocket a very fine gold
watch, worth two hundred dollars perhaps,
and his pocket book containing thirty-three
or fonr miliars, making- off with his booty in
the direction of Goldsboro’, he having been
tracked to Selma, going down the railroad.
The negro passed under the name of Moses
Higgs, is of yellow cast, stoat built, about 23
years olid, weighs 170 pounds, and is 5 feet 9
or 10 inches high; on one hand the little fin
ger and one next to it are webbed or grown
together. • The watch had marked on the out
side. the letters “ A G. Ji.”
►<
Only ten additional votes in each county
are needed to give Indiana to Seymour and
Blair, and if the past is any guide for the fu
ture, it is safe to assume that the vote of the
Presidential eleotors of that State will be dost
for the nominees of the New York Conven
tion. A small change will turn- the scale in
• Pennsylvania, and in the Union. Democrats,
this battle can be won, and it most be.—Aye.

The Cotton Cbop.—It. appears to be the
general opinion among our planters - that the

but tittle of it has been disposed of, owing
to the continued decline in price.—Sainbridge
