TIIK FOREIGN NEWS.
The intelligence from Europe is three days
later by the arrival from Liverpool of the
Allemannia at New York. The advices from
Germany are somewhat more moderate in
tone, butjhe patties hud not yet arrived ai j very frequent throughout the South, should
This Biot in Memphis.—We publish in an
other column a detailed account of the fear
ful negro riot which occurred in Memphis on
the 1st inst. Another account fibres a some
what different version of the coflBBencement
of the affair, alleging that it had its origin in
the attempt of the police to arrest a white
man w ho w as sellingriiiquor to the negro
soldiers, who attacked the officers, killing
on' 1 and wounding another. This account
also states that some ten white peopie, men
and women in the outskirts of South Mem
phis took part with the uegroes, cheering
them on in their attack upon the citizens
The molt of npgroea consisted of over one
hundred and fifty, all armed with Minie
rides, pistols and kivcs.
Such occurrences, which are becoming
anv definite settlement. The principal ob
stacle would appear to be the obstinacy ol
Count- Bismark. There had been a renewal
of the rumor of his resignation.
A Vienna telcgtam says Bavatia, \\ uuen-
burg, Saxony, Baden and Darmstadt are
quite’ united on the German nud Federal
questions. Should war occur they would all
be on the side of Austria. Their agreement
encourage slhe hope that peace will not be
disturbed.
Peace meetings continue to be held in the
large towns of Prussia.
The Prussian answer to England’s remou
sir inces is said to be cold and haughty.
The Austrian answer says Austria does no!
ask an inch of land in the Duchies, nor wil
she accept it. Prussia wishes to annex the
Duchies, and Austria is hound to support the
rights of the Schleswig-Holstein people.
She will not dictate to them, but requires
that the will of the people and of the Diet
shall be respected. The Prussian and
Austriau troops should be withdrawn and
the people should choose a government bv
universal suffrage. Austria accepts their de
cision if C7eu in favor of Prussia.
The Loudon Times asserts that the Presi
dent's Proclamation of Peace, “viewed in
the light of reason and humanity, deserves
all praise, and that his opinions respecting
standin "'armies, military occupation, martial -
law, military tribunals ami suspension of the
habeas corjtus wdl hardly be controverted by
any reasonable politician. It will be seen
from our intelligence of to-day that the Sen
ate has passed the Civil Rights bill over the
President’s veto by a majority of 33 to 15.
It is almost .certain that the House of Repre
sentatives will do the same. This measure,
which the President argued against so ener
getically and eloquently, will, therefore, soon
be law. It is, in reality, a most important
change in 1 he Constiiutiou. It overthrows
completely the doctrine of State indepen
dence. By passing it Congress has arrogated
to iioelt powers which nowhere appear in
that sacred document to which Americans
continually appeal. Il the divil Rights act
he carried out as its authors desire, there will
be iu every Southern State ati authority over
riding the State authority, a law nullifying
the Stale laws, an influence not derived lrom
the people, but exercised by a Federal Ex
ecutive, through a legislation in which the
Southern States bad no share. There can
be oniy on* ground on which such a domi
nation can be imposed, and that is the right
of conquest. To do the leaders of the Re
publican party justice, they do not shriuk
from uttering the word. They have always
held that the Southern States were conquered,
and met they may be dealt with according to
the will ot the victors, restrained only by
the laws of morality, and not by auy politi
cal lights which ma}- be supposed to belong
to the vanquished.”
Mr. Peabody, the distinguished American
banker, accompanied by the Lord Mayor ot
Loudon, had been received at Guildhall with
great demonstrations of respect, on account
of the distribution of prizes gained at the
Workingmen’s Industrial Exhibition.
There were great rejoicings at St. Peters
burg and elsewhere on account of the Em
peror's escape lrom assassination. The mail
who attempted the Emperor's liie is a Rus
sian land-owner, of small means, who con
siders himself iujured by the emancipation
of liie serfs. He discharged the pistol with
in a few feet of the Emperor, and the shot
would probably have taken effect had uot a
peasant turned aside the assassin’s arm.
This peasant has since been ennobled. It, is
said that the Emperor, with perfect presence
of blind, himself seized the culprit, asking
him quietly, “What have-I ever done to you
that you should seek my life?”
serve to put our people on their guard, and
to make both whites and blacks careful to
gtve uo cause for personal collision, which
from a very inconsiderate beginning, might
grow to a fearful conflict of races. The
wretch who would incite snch a conflict is a
disgrace to humanity.
Civil Rights in Tennessee.—The Nash
ville Gazette gives an account of a little in
cident which occurred in that city a lew
evenings since, which illustrates the practi
cal operation! of the Civil Rights bill. A
showman who is exhibiting to the people of
the Rock City what he calls the Miltonian
Tableaux, had through ignorance sold two
tickets to 'a negro, which tickets entitled
the purchaser to reserved seats. When the
holder of the ticket entered the hall, he was
shown to a seat by some person, who either
did not observe the color of the party, or
elsojdid not understand the manner of seat
ing persons in Southern halls. On the dis
covery oi the miscegenation, the negro was
requested to move, but refused under any
circumstances to give up his seat. One ot
t'.ie City Marshals consulted with the door
keeper, and it was decided, in order to avoid
difficulties, that it would be better to allow
i ho negroes to remain in the seats the;/ oc
cupied, as they did not feel authorized to
remove them.
The next day an earnest apology appeared
from the manager, expressing his deep re
gret at the occurrence, assuring the public
t hat he had no knowledge of the matter, and
promising that hereafter nothing of the kind
shall occur.

Mexican Minister here, which involves the ceasjgn
to certain leading American capitalist, of nearly the
whole of the peninsular of Lower California.
Thefailureof the Merchants National Bank of this
city, which took place on Friday, is the cause of con

From Texas and Mexico.
New ObleasV, May 5.—The troops recently sent to
Texas are acting very badly. Drunken rows and
fights are constantly occurring at Galveston.
Business at Matamoras is very dull. The Imperial
Austrian troops are dissatified for want of adequate
pay, and forced loans are driving the merchants
away.
The Red River planters say that the cotton 'seed
planted in that section this year is unusually rotten.
A deavstating overflow is feared, Red River being
higher than was ever bofore known.
Judge Duplinter has decided that notes payable in

tion in the House of Representatives on Monday last,
it was made the special order for Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday oi next week.
The controversy between Mosers. Blair and Conk-
ling was made the occasion of another disgraceful
scene iu the House on Monday. It is made the sub
ject of investigation by a special committee into the
administration of the Provost Marshal General’s Bu
reau.
The appropriation for the Freedmen’s Bureau, of
between eleven and twelve millions of dollars is made
in accordance with the estimates of General Howard,
who regards this bill'as tar more necessary to the use
fulness and vitality of the Bureau than any act to
protract its existanco beyond oae year from date. The
mil makes the following appropriations: Salaries ot
Assistant and Sub-Assistant Commissioners, 847,600;
salaries. df clerks, *8.',600; stationery and printing,

In the case of Isham Henderson, one of the proprie
tors of-thejLouisviiic. Journai, the President has di
lected that the trMibefore the Military Commission
proceed. The President, however, does not decide
that the W»it of habeas corpus shall not nor should
not have been obeyed. It was a mistake in the offi
cers io refuse to make prompt and respectful response
to the writ.
The President has ordered pardons to he issued to
forty nine Texans, under the first exception of the
Amnesty Proclamation, as having held civil offices un
der the so-called Confederate Government; three from
Georgia, ten from Louisiana, and five lrom Alabama,
under the ,thjrtecnta£or $20,000 exception. 1 All of
those werttreebidsended byAhe Governors of their

them. The prisoners were held to answer.
Important Cabinet Meetino.—A Wash
ington dispatch says a cabinet meeting was
held on Monday, at which the members pres
ent, upon tiie invitation of the President, ex
pressed their opinions respecting the recent
report of the Reconstruction Committee.
Secretaries Seward, Wells, Stanton and
McCulloch are reported to have been em
phatic in opposition to the plan proposed by
the Committee, and to be in favor of the
President’s policy of restoration. Secretary
Harlan was rather reticent. Dennison was
in favor of the President’s policy, but unde
cided as to the proper time for the admission
of the Southern Representatives.
The President declared himself emphati
cally against the plan of the Committee, and
opposed all conditions precedent to the ad
mission of the loy-.il Representatives, in the
shape of constitutional amendments, or the
passage of laws on that subject; and re
marked in general terms that if the organic
law is to be changed at all, it should be done
at a time when all the States and all the peo
ple can participate in the alteration.
Demoralization.—It seems that the de
moralization incident to the war is growing
worse and worse. Almost every paper we
take up contains revolting details of crime.
Reports of murder, arson, robbery, rape, in-<
fanticide, and violence of every kind and de
gree, are the commonplace topicun the local
columns of the newspapers. All sections of
the country share in this spirit of lawless
ness. They are not confined to cities, or to
the track of the late war. North, East. West
and South, the sickening record is the same,
and we fear it will be very long before wo
shall have in America a high state of public
morals, or n v-yeil assured condition of social
order.
Great Freshet.—The Mobile Register
teams from a gentleman who has just arrived
from West Point, Miss., that in consequen
of the rain, which commenced on Monday
night, and has continued throughout the
week, with scarcely an intermission., 'the Mo
bile and Ohio Railroad is impassable above
West Point. In many places above that
point the road has been washed away, and
the prairie country is all inundated, ^Yll the
streams are out of their banks, and great
numbers of cattle have been drowned. The
damage from this flood will be incalculable,
as nearly all the crops will be destroyed.
Northern Emisaries at the South.
A writer in the Boston Post speaking of
some of fke Northern fanatics in our midst,
says;
The emisaries from the North are encour
aging the negroes to form secret associations,
and to make public parades, demonstrations
and celebrations—and in Richmond they are
often overbearing and insulting to the whites,
which provokes retaliation and riots. Gen.
Terry says there is now probably over a
hundred of these semi-secret organizations
among the blacks in Richmond, and the
names they assume are often ludicrous and
blasphemous, one being styled the ‘ ‘ Holy
Sons of God.” The whites are patient and
forbearing, except, perhaps, a few drunken
rowdies, .but it is easy to .see that a conflict
of a serious character is in embryo. Serious,
reflecting men, shudder at tho future of the
black race, if they are to be backed up and
encouraged by the Government. It is gen
erally believed by the most prominent men
of the South that the war has already re
duced the negro population one-third.—

The Internal Revenue.—The Commissioner of
Internal Revenue has decided that all expenses for in*
surance upon property, and all actual losses in busi
ness may be deducted from.the gross income of tho
year; bat losses sustained after December 31, 1865,
cannot reduce the income for that year. Losses in
curred in the prosecution of one kind d business may
be deducted from the gains in another, bat not from
the portions of Income derived from fixed investments
such ss bonds, mortgages, rents snd the like. Tho
Assessor should also be careful not to allow the in
duction of amounts claimed to have been lost in busi
ness, when in reality they should be regarded as in
vestments or expenditures, as when merchan ts expend
money in farming or gardening, for recreation or
adornment rather than pecuniary profit. Persons
travelling about the country as agents oi' manufactu
rers or dealers seeking orders for goods as agents for
one person or firm only, such as salaried clerks, or
men hired by tho month, should not be required to
take licenses as commercial brokers.
Ail parts ot decision number 159 inconsistent here

Forgery and Burglary in Wall Street.—A dis
patch from New York dated tho 3d inst., says that in
tense excitement was prevailing in Wall street owing
to the discovery of a number of forgeries of railroad
bonds and checkB to the amount of nearly $300,000.
Several banks and prominent business men are re
ported to hava besn victimised by the operations of
the burglar, who is suppoeed to be a Mr. John Ross,
lately doing business aa a broker la Exchange place.
The office of Messrs. Gotubsrgsr A da. fit New
Bowery, was on Tuesday night robbbed of three cer
tified bills of exohangs payable In gold, amounting in
the aggregate to $16,347 72 and $100 in Treasury
notes. A nephew of Mr.- Gottsberger's partner,
namedDusny, was arrested, and a-portion of the
stolen Treasury notes found in bis possession.
TnE Spanish-Pebuvian Wab.—Advices by way oi
Rio Janeiro, of April 3d, state that two Peruvian iron*
clads had arrived from England. They captured the
Spanish schooner Dorothea, using the United States
flag. A Peruvian ironclad was daily expected from
the United States. The news from Venezuela, dated
April 7th, intimates that the Republic was very
likely to sympathise with Spain in tho war against
Chili, the Venezuelan authorities recollecting that
their ports are utterly defenceless, and the flbople
remembering that their poorer ^countrymen were re
ceived in the Spanish West India Islanda aa privileged
refugees during the State troubles at home. The new
gold mines of Neuva are said to yield abundantly.
Military squabbles about State rights’ claims disturb
the territory at some points.
Fuom the West Indies.—Havana dates of the 2fith.
state that a cargo of negroes had'just been landed at
the south side of the Island. Several ships were ex
pected from China with coolies.
There was a very ’srgo stock of sugar on band.
Freightage for the Un.ted States was brisk, at about
previous rates.
In Gaudaloupe’ the deaths from cholera average
seven and one fourth per cent, of the population. The
disease was less violent.
Our advices from St Domingo are to the 14th of
April. The late revolutionary movement on the south
em portion of tho lsland, induced a^the very moment
of its suppression, s large insurrectionary parte to
arise in another portion, and suddenly seize thetowns
of San Costobal, Bani and San Jose de Oceo. The
Government acted promptly and with energy. Troops
were marched rapidly from different points and con
centrated so judiciously, that tbc insurgents Were dis
persed. Two of the most active of their loaders os-
caped, and order was restored.
— There is a report that Mr. Motley, our
Minister at Vienna, has been instructed to
demand his passports and come home, in
case Austria should persist in allowing re
cruits for Maximilian’s armies to be obtained
in the Austrian Empire.
Serious Affray.—On last Monday night,
some fifteen miles north of Qnitman, a man
by the name of Thomas shot, with intent to
kill, Mr. Alderman. Mr. Alderman is still
alive, but no hopes of his recovery are enter
tained. But few particulars of the affray
have reached us, but it is understood that
the provocation that induced the rash act
was very slight. In fact, it is considered by
those who have been partially informed of the
circumstances, that it was a deliberate and
cold-blooded murder. Thomas had not been
arrested as yet, bnt it hoped that justic
will soon overtake and mete’ out to him his
jnst deserts.—Quitman Banner.
County Court.—In Bibb county, P. B
Whittle waa elected County Judge, and N. H
Bass, Solicitor.
In Walton county, E. M. Colley was elected

The Fenians.—A firm in Albany, New York, has
received an order to manufacture 60,000 Fenian flags.
At a large meeting of officers of Fenian circles held
in Philadelphia, on the 29ih ultimo, a committee was
appointed under the chairmanship of District Centre,
Andrew Wynne, to proceed to negotiate and ascertain
from O'Mahony the object of recent movements of
officers, and an explanation of the manner in whicli
the funds were being expended. The object of the
committee is to Batisfy the feeling of.-dissatisfaction
prevailing among tho • Fenians in that city, which is
duily growing stronger.
