Kxpluuatory. 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 week in a reduced n'zo. Wo fortunately had on band a lot of paper of the size we nsed before we enlarged, or else we wonld have been without paper for this woik’s is eke altogether. We have been compelled, owing to the above facts, to “leave out" four columns of advertisements thin week. These will ap pear next week in their proper place. We hope by that time to be all right on the pa per Our Paper. The micoena we have had thua for, in the publication, of the Journal, has been be yond what we could have reasonably ex pected. Commencing, na we did, at a time when mnicy whs source, the burden of taxation heavy, everybody poor, wi'h very meagre mail fucilitiea, we had made tip bur miml to bo Satisfied if we eou’d duly obtain subscription and advertising »urthneut to defray actual expenses for the first year, believing that by the expiration of that time the people would be 7b a bet ter condition to support a paper than now, 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 scriber when we issued tho first number of tho paper, we now have about six hundred. Our advertising columns are filled with good paying advortis'inents—we take none • mply to ‘ fill up” with. Wo attribute our success,'in a groat degree, to the kind ness of our many friends, pomo of whom have labored zealously far the prosperity of the Journal. Their rnmea arc known to ua uDd they shall receive their rowurd. Anl again, determined from the com mencement, to nqake the Journal a perma nent institution, we have used all fair and honorablo means to succeed. Wo have not been idle, neither do we expect to be j If industry and energy can obtain patron- j a ;»e for our paper, then w e will have it.— | If wo make a paper worthy the patronage •J the people, wo want it, if we fail to do this, wo feel wo are not entitled to i*, and shall not grumble if we do not receive it. We intend sparing no pains to make the Dawson Journal all that its friends could vriakiL We shall gather up a’l the uews from week to week that we think would bo interesting and profitable to our readers. Our brethren of the Daily Press, through out this and in several other States, have kind y favored ua with their ex hanges, and thereby enabled us to obtain the “lat est nc\ys.” A telegraph oflice 'rill soon It# established hero, which will give us further,,advantages, While we debit u to make our pitper p’casing to all, wo cannot pander to the tastes of the vulgar by the publication of “indecencies." We would have no corrupt communications proceed from our columns, but rather such as are good fur the moral edifying of the people. While we have reason to bo grateful for our own success wo have too much respect for the fraternity generally, to “tlabber” j whou we behold the prosperity of others We have neighbors all around us whose evident success is truly gratifying The people are beginning to appreciate newspa pers, ad they should and deserving pub lishers arc being left without cause for grumbling.

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 hvw'vr Mr '-j’*hos"p he' sVaj* b»d coufidei ce 1» the people, sod wheuevor he has appealed to them ho has been sustained. 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.
