Having been disappointed in obtaining,
ia time for this wrek's'Usne, a lot of paper
ordered from the Fulton Paper Mills, we
have been oompellcd to iatue our paper this

duly obtain subscription and advertising

first year, believing that by the expiration
of that time the people would be 7b a bet

and hoping, with proper effort to make a
deserving sheet, which would receive from
them a liberal patronage. But the pnt
lauagc of the Journal has more than trip- j
pled our expectations. Wi h not a sub

Special Correspondfnrr of the Dawson
Journal.
Washington, June 9th. 166 b.
pear Journal: It has been so long since
you announced •*(bat intelligent correspond
ent from the Cxpitol,” thst I presume most
of your readers have forgotten the circum
stance; *nd a* they may fail to perceive the
“intelligenceand may come, to the conclu
sion in the end that the “correspondent” is
no gTest addition to the “Journal,” it may
be cruel to again remind them of the subject
by writing a desultory letter, but 1 am go
ing to incur the risk of being classed with
the multitude who have established reputa
tions for cruelty sinoe the commencement of
the late cruel tcar.
It is not a matter of interest to your read
ers that I undertook a South* rn tour, on tho
j principal of forced marches, about the time
iof your aforesaid announcement, and that
since my return 1 have been too busy tngos
-1 sip, but it may be a matter of ciirtotify to
i them to know wbat a •‘palvanizod yankce’
| or Southern Union man thinks of their, af
; ter an absence of five or six years, during
' which lime he has been dependent upon "in
telligent contrabands” and equally reliable
newspaper correspondent*-, fer reliable intel
ligence concerning the barbarous habits and
rampant feelings of the Houthern people.
I have always believed them t> be a
yreut people— but wbethel the nsuit cf
reason or of education, I am not prepared to
de'ermine. I even considered them great
fools when they inaugurated secession, and
time has shown that I was oorrect; that they
were great in war all the world has acknowl
edged. Results of the late stupendous con
flict sufficiently demonstrates their greatness
in peaceful economy. Americans appear to
me to posses* this quality of aJaptalilLty in
a more eminent degree, than people of other
countries. Ia Virginnia North Caroline,
and Georgia, I beard odlv of peace and
tranquillity and a disposition to try in good
faith to meet all the requirements of the ad
ministration and reestablish, the government
on a basis of permanent grandure that will
command the love and admiratim of future
generations at homo and abroad. I found
that even the negroes are behaving them
selves better than the whites had allowed
theiriselvoß to < xpeet; and there seemed to
bo very little unkiud feelings, except against
the radical* of tho North. The radical “de
struction committee” in Congress are en
deavoring to persuade the Northern people
that this feeling is against the government
aad is owiog to the lenient’ policy of the
President! That is queer logic, but they
teach it here, and look you in the face at
tho same time, which would seem to indicate
that a man may lie until he beeomes perfect
ly honest in it. I dont tbiok that it is nec
essary to kick a roan to make him love you,
any more than I believe that Executive
clemency it the cause of the bad feeling in
the South. I found much more geouioo
submission and loyalty among the Southern
people than I expected to see, and from ac
tual investigation, I am sati.-fied that this fa
vorable state of public opinion is owing in
a great measure to the practical good sense
of Andrew Johnson in acting upon his
theory, that to make good loyal citizens out
of subjects, yon must trust them, and treat
and respect them as cit’z >ns.
There seems to be more trouble in Hast
Tennessee than in all the rest of tLe Sjuth.
! During a sojourn of several days among
these people , I saw none who did not claim
to have been Union men throughout. All
those who made themselves offensive by per
secuting Union men, or siding the rebellion
have been foroed to seek a refuge further
South. Georgia has a large share- There
| are still remaining however, many who take
! noaotivo part either way, but who are sus
! pccted of having sympathised with the re
bellion, and these are now the objects of
persecution by a set of desperadoes under
the lead and protection of Govenor Brown
low. lam sorry to have to prefix the word
“Govonor” before the oamo of Brownlow,
but this is doubtbss one of the punishments
with which Providence bes seen fit to af
flict us for our share in the rebellion. lam
glad to know from observation, however
that the respectable Union men of East
Tennessee do nit indorse this spirit of out
lawry, and are taking steps to put it down
The great majority of them staod by Pres,
ident Johnson, and in tho town of Green
ville, the home of the President and of your
“inteHigeut|correspondent,” also I did not
find a single rebel, nor a Brownlow man.
In every other oouuty, l found a Brownlow
faction, but good men generally d'aw com
fort from the fact that be is opposed to them
Biowulou’o uncompromising'Unionism crea
ted the only doubt I ever had of tho correct
ness of my views in opposition to the rebel
lion, but then Henry S. Foote took the
o‘borsideand a- l bad nover known him to
take the right s le of any question, I felt
easy, and assured of the rectitude of my
cause.
But a little talk about, the radicals will
I am sure be more acceptable to your readers
provided I talk so as to suit them. All are
perhaps pretty correctly informed as to that
earnestness and even bitterness of the fight
which has gone on without 6tgn of abate
ment for the last six long weary months
I need not rehearse details, bnt I may
be pardoned fer saving that I have known
Andy Johnson sufficiently long and inii—
mutely, tt indulge the assurance that on bis
part there will le no stacking of arms but
an unmistakable triumph, or utter defeat.
Asa man of strong common sense, as a judge
of men and things, he is certainly inferior
to no man of his generation. His powers
of thought and discrimination are of the
most gigantio order. Ifys Weighs every
subject well, in all its bearings and details
before be arrives at a conclusion, and when
be has passed his judgment, ho never tol
erates the idea that any body else’s views
may be better than his own: Bis power of
will and determination of purpose, are so
fixed that combinations might as well butt
their heads against the rock of Gibralter, as
to try to move him from bis purpose. He
has confidence in bis own ability to accom
plish whatever is within tbo range of human
possibility, and being in his confidence in
: the rectitude of hi# views and motives, he
will move on regardless of threats or com
binations. The radicals kn w the man with
1 whom the; arc dealing, and henoe the vigor
with which they make their charge, hopiug
by tho magnitude of tbeir display to cap
ture public sentiment by surprise, and ob
tain a judgemeut in their favit before the
sober kviH thought. They may yet fail

The tr’al of Jefferson Davis, which has
been i »-p<d upon for more than twilve
u ontbs almost unceasingly, is still the sub
ject of e* mount here. The postponements
of the trial has not allayeJ excitement, and
I sometimes fear that there is something
disreputable in the almost frantic thirst of
the ruling party here for that man’s blood
| The spirit wss admirably illustrated by the
I legislature of my adopted S'ate, Tennessee.
1 A radical introduced a resolution declaring
|it the sense of that body that Jiff Davis
should be tried and hu ig. A conservative
I offered to amend by inserting, “provided he
lis duly convicted.” Tho amendment was
I voted down, and tho origiunl resolution
adopted. So it is here. They all agree as
I to the hainjlwj part, and all admit that there
must be a trial of some sort as a condition
I precedent, but thero is gro it aversion to en
trusting bis conviction to a Jury in a Sou’h
ern locality, and as tho law officers of tbe
government decided that be cant legally
be tried by military commissio.i, toe invin
ciblos are in a quandary. If he could be
tried in B iston, it would all bo right, but as
that cannot be, they prefer that ho should
rot in Fortress Monroe, rather than that be
• Tould be aqu't cJ.
The constitution dcclar s Mr. Davis enti
tled to a speedy trial, and the l'rtsidenf,
anxious to honor that instrument, has been '
striving to give him a speedy trial, but Mr.
Chase is boss of tbe job, and he s iys no.— ;
He will probably be tried in the tali, how
ever, and T give it as my op nion that if he
is corrvieted he will hang by the neck until j
he is dead From wbat I saw and hoard in <
thoS'U h, I wis led to Irlievo that the lJre.s
idonl’o magnanimity towa ds the masses of
tho people ! a 1 impressed them with the idea
that his clemency would extend to each in
dividual case. I think they are mistaken.—
The President ns much believes to-day that
treason is ordins, and ihat traitors should be
punished, eg wh u he ut ered that sentiment
But he is not favorable to the haDgiog of
whole communities. If tho courts c nvict a
few, a very lew, of tho principal offenders,
I think he will execute sentence, and then
declare amnesty to all others, provided they
continue to demean themselves so as to de
serve it. This opinion is only miue-*-it is
not “nufhoriz -d."
The Senate yesterday passed, by a vote of
33 to 11, what is known as “the caucus plan”
for adjustment. It will probably pa s the
House in tho same form, and immediately
all the Northern legislatures, not now in ses
sion, will bo convened to pass upon it with
out ahowiog the question to come before
the people. This plan does not disfranchise
•‘rebels,” and enables congress, by c two
thirds vote of both houses to remove the dis
ability to hold office. I enclose you a copy
of the plan, a= passed. If this proposition
could be allowed t.o go before the people by
de'aying State action until new legislatures
are elected, all weald be well; but nothing
that ingenuity and desparatiou can suggest
will be left undone to get snap judgment
upon it, by forcing it down the people’s
tbroa*s b f ire any qoes ions can be asked.
It is not improbable, from prcscut indica
tions that Congress will venturo to adj rorn
by the 4th of July, and the country may
once more have a little repose.
Ironico.
What tho Elnrapt aii War is A front.
We w y expect to hear now by every
mail that nearly a million of men are engsg
ed in hostilities in Germany and Italy, and
that the wholo of the European continent
is shaken by tho shock. There has not
been, since 1815, promise half so strong of
a giincal war. It was not difficult, after
all, to • 100 l *e,”as it is called, the Belgian-
Dutoh »ar, or the Austrian Hungarian war,
or the liussiao-Turkish war, or tho French
Austrian-Italian war. These were ail avow
edly waged about interests essetially local,
or else were so f \t removed from the great
centres of European affairs that any of tbe
great powers which chose to stand aloof
could do so without difficulty. But this
war which is on the point of breaking out
will rage in the very heart of Europaan civ
iliization and, though nominally for the pos
session of a strip of territory, is really waged
to shape tbe future of one of tbe great races
of tbe world, and to decide whither oae of
tho oldest and proudest of European empires
shall or shall not vanish from the map.
And yet Dine out ofevery ten of our read
ers have probably n > ide* a a’l, or n vague
obi, 0 f w hat it is till ab ut I'here is a cun
fusel notion iu tho public mindttat Schles
wig Holstein is son:chow cr other at the
bottom of it, but how it got to tho bottom
of i*, or why it remains there, very few in
deed know. Most people have been dele r.d
from following the Schleswig-Holsteiu con
troversy at all, owing to the general and
not natural belief that it was incomprehen
sible. The efforts of most European jour
nals to throw light on tho matter have made
it as clear as mud. l’unch published a year
or two ago an amusxg burlesque on the sub
ject, wLioh was probably cf as much value to
most read rj as the most serious of the
previous attempt, at explanation.
V/e do not propose to follow the dispute
through all its ramification. An “exhaus*-
ive” treatise upoa it would fill several v<>l
umrs But tho gist of it is this: Tho
Duobes of Schlc.-w g and Holstein are sub
ject to the S4ie law, which prohibits a wo
man from reigning. In 1160 they were in
herited by tho King < f Deumark, and tbey
remained in the hands of bis deceudant*
until the time if Frederick VII, who died
in 1863 ; with bitn the direct male line ter
minated, And the duchies legally reverted
to the youDg Duke of Augustan burg. Io
view of this contingency, however, a eonfer
ence of the great powers was held in London
on 1852, at which it was resolved for vari
ous considerations affecting the peace of Eu
rope, but perhaps from defcrcnco to Russia
as much as any other, that G>e Du.-ties shoud
remain annexed to tbo Darai-h Crown and
should not pass in the legal order of succes
ion.
When the King died in 1863, however,
it was found that the popular party in Ger
many were by no means disposed to acqui
esce in the arangoa ents of the diplomatist.
Holstein is Germ in, and has always been a
memder of tbe German confederation,
though goverued by a Danish prince, and
there was a general outcry against its annex
ation to Denmark. Tbe clamor grew loud
er every day and at la«t found formal expres
sion through Diet, which ordered the*King
of Djo mark to 'ake liim self out of Holstein.
On bis refusal, “federal execution” was
ordered that is, tho troops of Gon'#d:ratiou
were ordered to turn him otxt, and put the
t'lkr «f in «w#ti I’p
1 1 this point I’rusnia and Austnu hai stood
aloof. The movement against Denmark
being essentially a popular one, they would
have nothing to say to it; but as B'on as
thetroips moved, they announced that if
there was to bo sny fighting done, they
would do it themselves and would not allow
the smaller slates to interfere. By this
time Denmark had yielded Holstoin to tbe
fedirul army ; t ut Prussia now came in, and
demanded Schleswig also, and sent the fed
eral army about its bu-iuess. Austria then
sent troops to the scene of action also. Den
mark prepared for re-istance, Lord Ru.-aTi
swore by the nine gods that Denmark should
not be harmed ; but tbe Pru-sians kept
marching. DuppcHvas taken in course, and
then a conference was hastily ca led in Lon
don, in May, 1864; but Prussia refused to
suspend opperaliens during its sittings.
After a fortnight’s wrangling it accom
plished nothing, and it had hardly broken up
when Alsou was taken, the war was over,
and Denmark was prostrate at the feet of
the invader. A treaty was made at Vienna
in Ostober of the same year, by whfoh Den
mark ceded Scleswig, Holstein, and Laucn
burg for 2,000,000 thalers.
So far all bad worked harmoniously enough
But the trouble was now to begin, as the
spoil had to be divided. The two powers
found themselves in the duebes what the
German lawyers cull rondomini —joint ru
lers and proprietors. Each cf them sent
down a civil commiisioner and a military
commissioner, and these four officers speed
ily began to quarrel. The Au-trian com
missioner coquetted with the Duke of Augds
teuburg, and encouraged demonstrations of j
attachments to him on the part of the inhab-1
itants ; tbe Prussian commissioner forbade
those demoustrn ions, and-the bickering be
came so serious that an effort was made to
terminate it diplomatically. The convention
of Gustein was accordingly made in 1865,
by wbieh it was arranged that Prussia should
hold Schleswig ; the harbor of Kiel, asd the
federal fort of Rmdsburg, and Austria Hol
stein. This was, however, simply a provis
ional arrangement; nothing was determined
as tu the ultimate disposition of conquered
territory.
In Febuary of tbe present year, Bismarck
who makes no se ret of his belief that Aus- j
tria has no busioe.-a in Germany, that she !
is not a Germain power, that her proper
capital is l’esth and her proper mission the
civilization of the barbarous counties of Eas
tern Europe impudently and brusquely gave
her notice that he wished her to evacuate !
Holstein. Shewas natura’ly somewhat ta
ken absck by this, arrogant demand, and de
clined compliance. About this time some
disturbances broke out among tbe Jews in
Bobcmeia Austria moved troops up to re
store order, and Bismarck at once cried out
that she was arming. She denied it ■ he in
sisted that sho was, and he at once began
to put tho Prussian rrmyon a w*r footing
and sent agents into Italy to stir up tbeltal
ians, and, it is strongly suspected, entered
in to secret convention with Victor Emman
uel.
Oa perceiving the movern Dt in Italy,
Austria began to strengthen her forces in
Venclia. Bismarck affected to regard this as
auotber threat and pushed on bis prepara
lions with greater vigor than ever, but offer
ed to let ilie Austria corps in iLdste n re
tire unmolested. The “notes” which have
been since interchanged are mere formalizes.
Prussia is dearly determined on trying con
elusions with Austria, and the manner in
which tbe quarrel has been begun and carri
ed on leaves no room for an h morable exit
to either party, nor does it seem that any
ihirg-'xcip’ Btsmarck’s or the King's death
could now avert an appeal to arms. Too
confident manner in which tho Italians are
moving to the attack leaves very little and >ubt
that ihe’whole programme is already made
out.
It is, of course, impossible to predict with
confidence the course events will take.
But it is reasonable to expect that Austria
will be driven from Venice and out of the
duohes ; that., at u later stage of the conflict
Franco will intervene and claim tbe left bank
of the Heine, permitting I‘russia to compen
sate herself by the af sirption of the sturdier
German states, and off ring Austria the D n
übian princibalitiea to make up for her ’o'.eva
in Western and Southern Europe. This
would make the latter loss of a German Em
pire. But Russia may prove a disturbing cl
ement in this calculation, and, uulcss her do
mestic troubles are serious enough to tie hor
bands, probably lay a strong band on the
principalities.— New Yurie Nation.
