It does not surest an r definite plan for a basis of the delibe ration* of the conference. Private advices from Paris represent that many political arrests have been made by the police.

There were no direct |Miliiteal al- 'i ,, n- made. Imt be took calm and con- On Sunday night last, about half past 6 o’clock, a most shocking and cowardly homicide was perpetrated on the pavement before the Stubblefield Hotel. Mr. J. B. Emerson, a plasterer by trade and a citizen of Albany, who was one of the party that didn't capture tiie burglar 1 on Saturday night, was seated in front of! the hotel and conversing with a friend.— ! Near by a man by tiie name of Betts, a sportin'' gentleman, and a professional: man-kiiler, was also seated and engaged in j conversation with some other gentlemen. I The latter's conversation, it seems, turned upon the burglary, and the escape of thej burglar. Betts remarked that if he had been there he thought he could have cap tured or stopped the burglar. <‘n hearing this, Emerson, probably smarting under tiie implied rebuke, rose and advanced to Betts and said to him. *•! was there, what have you to say about it?”—or words to that effect. Betts replied that he had not addressed his conversation to him (Emer son) and did not recognize Lis right to ap proach him in ti vie. Emerson made some re.i.ark.- ‘ten paces;” Betts sprang to his K Id. “take your ten paces’’ami simi - with his words, lired. Tbe ball - Emerson in the re gion of the heart. .. s he was in the act of falling Betts tired a second shot, placing the ball near the lir<t. Emerson fell and never breathed afterward. Betts walked off' and saddled a hor*e and rode somewhere. A short time afterwards he sent the horse back, and no definite information has been ! obtained of the course he took. Some lie- j groes coming into town yesterday morn- ! ing say they saw him wending his w r ay to- : wards Newton, on foot and in disguise—j one of the negroe- recognizing him. There are various rumors afloat, tracing! the affair to a woman, but if a woman had anything to do with it. it is probable that Betts was mist ken for a man by the name of Lemons, who Emerson said had threa tened to kill him for whipping (Lemon’s) lady love. Poor Emerson was under the influence of liquor, and was almost as harmless as a babe. His attack upon Betts was unjustifiable, and of course insulting. Betts being a stranger; but Betts certainly acted most shamefully and cowardly in firing before the ten paces could be mea sured, and before Emerson had time to think or to draw. Betts is just out of prison for killing a Federal officer, at La Grange, we believe, and it is said lie is a practiced proficient in this branch of the fine arts—having sent six or seven to the grave-yard. A warrant was obtained, but we have heard of no effort to apprehend the guilty man. Since writing the above we learn that the civil authorities, assisted by Captain Howard of the Bureau, have taken steps to f iursue and capture the murderer, if he can >e found. It is to lie hoped they will suc ceed. for it is time to stop the career of blood this man loves so well to revel in.— Albany News. — Politcal Complication!*. Special Dispatch to the Cincinnati Gazette.] Washington, Nov., 1807. Certain parties, disappointed in not se curing the President’s aid to advance their selfish purposes, are making strenuons ef forts to prove that Johnson broke faith with the New York Democracy after making overtures to them. It is charged that some weeks since, Cassidy, of New Y ork, addressed a letter to a gentleman of Washington, stating that the New York Democratic Convention proposed to pass a resolution repudiating Johnson and liis Administration, and that this reached the President. It is further said that the President im mediately dispatched a distinguished Mis sourian ami ex-member of Congress front Tennessee, to confer with Seymour. Hull- man and others, with a view to arrest the passage of the resolution, and arrange other important matters. The resolution was stricken out. and in return it was un derstood Seward was to retire from the * alii net. and New York lie represented therein by John J. Cisco as Secretary of the Treasury. This programme was not carried out. and each party charges the other w ith broken faith. Johnsons friends assert that tiie New Y'ork leaders agreed to have the Ad- mi ifistration indorsed, which, not being done, relieved him from any obligation to make a change in the Cabinet. Several spicy letters have passed between the rep resentatives of tin—e high contracting par- tic- in their efforts to settle the question of bad faith. But no matter on whom this rests. No < iibinet change.-, have been made, and none are anticipated. General Frank Blair, to whom was ten dered a Cabinet appointment. lias declined it. Ilis acceptance was contingent on the reorganization of the whole Cabinet— w hich is indefinitely postjmned. hi '•rvative view s of the present and future • "iidir ion of the country.

Major Joseph Work, formerly a rich slave holder. and resident of Nashville, but more I recently of Bowling Green, Kentucky, j committed suicide by cutting his throat I with a razor.

Bishop Lee. of Iowa, by invitation took his seat beside die President of the latter hotly. Disgraceful.—Messrs. John and Dou glass Wise, who made the assault upon Pollard in Baltimore, on Thursday, may congratulate themselves upon having de monstrated. beyond cavil, their utter lack of one quality at least, heretofore consid ered the birthright of every Virginia gen tleman. To attack a man while walking along the public street —two against one— and that man, too. with liis innocent wife leaning on liis arm. recalls the old days of of t!ie bravo's dagger, and the stealthy spring of the hired a^sasMii from behind corners, or out of dark alleys. What if one of the balls intended for Pollard hail taken the life of liis wife? Could her slayer ever again have known pence? Would any honest man have lifted his lin ger to stay a frenzied mob from rending him limb from limb? We do not admire Pollard either as a man or historian, but we should be asham ed if e\en a much stronger prejudice than we have toward him could abate, by one jot or title, the indignation every gener ous heart tnu>t feel toward those who. to avenge any affront, wickedly' jeopardized th«* life of a helpie** woman.—Journal awl Nrss'H'jtr.
