The late intelligence from Europe
crowning of the Austrian Kaiser King 01
Hunoarv conveys a lesson tiiat every nn
Southerner ought to understand and
constant remembrance.

But her people have never conceded that hu
cause was thereby lost. On the conti ai y,
Austrian monarch has coustautly 'jeeucoi. 1-
ed to co-operate in the government of l ■
country with men who steadfastly adhered t
and demanded the restoration of her natioir
ality. They disclaimed ail purpose of making
war against Austria, and even supported her in
her wars ; but constantly the protest went up
against the deprivation of Hungary of her own
government. And, alter twenty years agitation.
they have gained every point; and Fiatieb-
Joseph is no longer their ruler as Emperor o!
Austria, but as King of Hungary. To men
superficial observers, the distinction is a trilling
one; but it is all in all to the Hungarians, and
they have triumphed.
Wtiat docs this teach the South > What, hut
to remain faithful to their cherished principlec*,
as embraced in the assertion of State Rights ,
and wait patiently for that reaction which will
surely come V It has been a common expres
sion that the doctrine of State Rights is de
funct ; that it has been subjected to the arbitra
ment of the sword,"and lost; and that, therefore,
it must be abandoned. It may not be advisable
to fight for it again in this day and generation,
but to stand by it and assert it on all proper
occasions, is a positive duty, and in duo time it
will triumph as the cause of Hungary has
triumphed. Radicalism will not always be the
overshadowing power it now is. It will have
its Sadowa at no distant day, and then the
truth will prevail. Look at Venice. 1‘ or more
than fifty years under heel of the despot,
but never conquered; submitting to powci,
but still looking for the liberator.
As respects confiscation, which is attempted
to be held like a rod over the South, there is
not the slightest danger of it. It will never be
seriously attempted. Let no Southern man
forget himself from danger of losing lus pio
l»cri.y by confiscation. There arc endless ol#-
stacles in its way ; not the least of which arise
from the widely varied constructions of the
Constitution on the subject. From. my know!-
edge of the nature of Chief Justice Chase a
mind, 1 do not believe he would sustain any
confiscation act that would have any practical
effect. There is not a single Republican press
that would sustain it. The out givings looking
to confiscation arc merely vile demagogism,
concocted for the purpose ol securing negro
votes at the South, and perhaps frighten boiuo
Southern whiles.
The excessive loeai taxation {into which the
North is plunged by its “ enterprise ” and
“public spirit,” stimulated to exaggeration by
public robbers, promises to produce, at no dis
tant day, a revolution, peaceable or otherwise,
which will not be without results advantageous
to the Southern white people. When universal
suffrage shall become universal, robbery in the
shape of “taxes and assessments,” wo shall
have an end of it. And perhaps negro suffrage
may not be without its compensation, in hasten
ing the time when we shall “touch bottom” on
that subject, unless, indeed, woman suffrage
shall be Introduced before the “reformers”
shall be satisfied.
The course of those Southern men who re
fuse to recognize the overturning of their State
governments, and hold aloof from all participa
tion in schemes ol “ reconstruction ” emanating
from Washington, and administered by military
authority, is the only one that promises present
self-respect and future advantage. To go into
a scramble with ignorant negroes and low-lived
whites for the “ honors ” of the day, is simply
defilement, and should not be thought of. “We
demand one Kiug,” said the Hungarians. “The
A.fci mid officers of one Stale” should be the
under which any true Southerner

defenses- The 1 >ii Inor,
and the Fui'ilan are enormous
and conspicuous failures. So this sub
ject is distasteful to people who insist upon
being always putted.
Murders, robberies, arsons, and rapes are so
common that the accounts have cloyed upon
the rudest tastes; and (lie criminal news is
turned from as revolting. A prize light that
came off yesterday, to decide the championship
of the “lightweights” of America,excites Imt
a momentary interest. YVc havn’t a single de
cent public entertainment of any merit in our
whole city. That which is not vile Is most
stupid.
The other day the strumpets, thieves and
pick-poekets of this city joined in an “excur
sion and pic-nic” to a near suburb. The Bohe
mians were disposed to “sensation” the whole
affair—giving the initials of the more notorious
persons in attendance; but managing editors
squelched them.
The weather has become warm and pleasant ;
and society, as embraced in our churches, is all
alive —excursions, pic-nics, strawberry festivals
and similar entertain incuts, for old and young,
take place l>v the score daily. It is only oil the
occasions of the excursions and pic-nics that
thousands of our people ever get a mouthful of
pure country air; and they are entered upon
with a zest that is most rclreslilug. New York
is most favorably situated lor these occasions
of enjoyment and health. Steam locomotion
will in half an hour carry a party to scenes as
truly rural as can be found in a hundred miles.
Lads living in this great city may go and gather
wild berries and nuts and walk scarcely farther
than if they lived in a village. It is pleasant to
sec great barges with perhaps a thousand peo
ple on board, mostly women and children, sail
ing down our harbor these line mornings, des
tined to some rural spot where a day may he
spent in unrestrained enjoyment. I fancy wc
arc less affected by conventionalites than “coun
try folkslor certainly more unrestrained,
innocent abandon can no where be found.
For a wonder, there is nothing in tiie fash
ions for male or female upon which the wits
of the press can hang a squib. The chignons
arc becoming tolerable in dimensions—the hats
are improving in capacity—the short dresses
and double skirts arc giving way to no particu
lar style—unless it be gored dresses and white
rutiled and embroidered skirts. The gentlemen
arc making a prodigious display of wide rim
med and hell crowned white hats. The mili
tary stripe down the leg is passe, hut the latest
fashion Is some mixed or subdued color, with
coats and vests of blue from the same cloth,
with the usual influx of white vests ns the mid
dle ol June approaches. One sees less of tlic
very bob-tailed coats that were so much in
vogue during the winter.
BUSINESS MATTEIIS.
The chaotic stale of feeling respecting the
future of the money market, the course of gold,
and the value of securities, which has ruled so
long, still prevails, and as a consequence, the
market does not maintain one course forty
eight hours. Speculators complain of the
smallness of their profits, and “ the street ” is
thinning out perceptibly. I see nothing to
change the views I have heretofore expressed
that there is as yet no sound basis for a pur
chase for a rise.
Business in merchandize is unusually good
for June. Jobbers and dealers had allowed
their stocks of goods to run so low that they
have been compelled to buy, and their entrance
upon the market has given an upward turn to
almost all articles ol foreign merchandize.—
Cotton, breadstuff's and provisions liave, how
ever, all been dull and declining. Tobacco is
the only important domestic product that shows
any improvement.
There is much discontent witli the cable dis
patches. Tlicir advices arc always a day after
the lair. We have lower accounts for cotton
iroin Liverpool, and by the time they arc pub
lished the market, through some strauge fa
tality, has taken an upward turn. Os course,
the Cable Company, by means of this practicing,
Stimulates private dispatches, but it iu bonest!

A Frightful Fall ok Little “All Right,”
Tne Japanese Acrobat. —A scene of the most
frightful nature occurred in the Academy of
Music, New York, Wednesday night, where the
Japanese acrobats have been performing their
wonderful feats for some time past. Little
“ All Right,” the name given to a little boy ten
years old, whose performances have been of the
most daring character, while performing on a :
suspended rope, forty feet in the air,' fell into the :
circle near the orchestra and was terribly in
jured, though not a boDe was broken. The i
scene in the Academy was most exciting. The i
little fellow was taken up for dead, and the per- i
formance ended, of course. He returned to i

The Petition for the Pardon of Jefferson
Davia.
A CURIOUS DOCUMENT.
The Washington correspondent of the New
York Herald communicates the following :
Some weeks ago it was stated, in your Wash
ington correspondence, that a petitiou for the
pardon of Jeff. Davis was in circulation ; that
it had been presented to leading Radicals here,
in Congress and out, for signatures; that sueli
Radicals refused to have anything to do with
the matter, and that one Conservative Senator
had declared that the originator must be a lu
natic. It transpired that Paul Bagley was the
originator and prime mover in the business,
and that he only succeeded in obtaining signa
tures from a few men of the. Sharkey- Walkei
stamp. 1 ani to-day enabled to send you aeop.i
of the. petition, witli the names ot tiie signers,
and front the character of the production the
public will lie able to judge whether the Con
servalive, Senator alluded to was right or wrong
in branding the author as a lunatic. The peti
tion is drawn in such an extraordinary style
that it could hardly have emanated from any
but a visionary. The following is the docu
ment with accompanying paper's:
Your Excellency— Forasmuch as I have no
doubt that Jefferson DaTis, uow a prisoner lit
Fortress Monroe, is willing to oboy the Gov
eminent he once defied and anxious to restore
the same, therefore your Excellency is hereby
prayed to extend of Executive clemency to Un
said Jefferson Davis a lull, free and complete
pardon for all his past rebellion ; and your
suppliant will ever pray the blessings ot A!
mighty God upon your Excellency. All ol
which is respectfully submitted and prayed.

Whereas, The God of battles has decided
against the Confederacy, and it is dead; we,
therefore, earnestly entreat the lute President
thereof to accept the situation by applying for
his pardon. We also pray his Excellency An

that of Executive clemency he may grant the
same to the said Jefferson Davis.

ACTION OP TIIE GRAND ARMY OP THE REPUBLIC.
At tiie regular meeting of Post No. 40, G. A.
R , held at their hall last evening, tiie following
resolutions were unanimously adopted :
Headquarters, Post No. 40, G. A. R., >
Toledo, Ohio, June 18, 1807. ij
Whereas, 'flic loyal people of the country
have learned with deep sorrow of flic release
by the Federal courts of Jefferson Davis, the
man who, while yet enjoying the honors of his
Government, engaged in a vast conspiracy for
its overthrow, who became its leader when it
had developed Into a gigantic rebellion, and
who is directly responsible for (.lie destruction
of life and property which attended it progress,
the unparalleled cruelties and atrocities which
rendered its conduct odious in the eyes of tiie
world, and for the wide spread rqiu and misery
which it entailed upon the whole country;
tnerefore be it by this Post of the Grand Army
of the Republic
Resolved, That Jefferson Davis, by the com
mission of these great crimes, has acquired one,
and only one, right which, as we are taught by
the wisdom of all civilized nations, is the right
to be hung.
Resolved, Thai, as compared with the brutali
jfps* practised flu compliance with’ his order
upon such soldiers of*Hje J Kepubljp as tell into
Ris hands, the regal manner' in which liß was
Treated by ogr Government affords reason for
profound indignation, rather than a ground for
complaint.
Resolved, That those who have prostituted
their official position to prevent justice being
U)eted out to this arch traitor deserve the con
demnation of all loyal citizens.
Resolved, That Horace Greeley, by his action
iu uniting with rebels and copperheads, in set
ting at liberty Jefferson Davis, tiie greatest
criminal of Hie age, lias forieited all claims to
leadership and rendered himself unworthy tiie
confidence ol the loyal people of Hie country ;
and that lie and those who, witli him, defend
his conduct, deserve and should receive the
stern rebuke of all soldiers and patriots.
Resolved, That inasmuch as in the history of
this Republic no one has ever been punished
lor treason, and as in the ease of Jefferson Davis
an indictment lias been presented demanding
action by tiie courts; therefore, wo declare that
now is a suitable time for a proper judicial tri
bunal to establish, for the benefit of future ages,
an exact definition of the great crime of treason,
and pronounce sentence on tbe guilty.
Resolved, That if Jefferson Davis, after having
perpetrated crimes so atrocious, shall finally es
cape the just penalty of tlic law, tlic Govern
ment wall thus offer a high premium for trea
son, brand as a lie the charge that he and ids
colleagues were rebels, and will In effect say
that he who slaughters his countrymen by
thousands, so that it bo done under cover of or
while waging n rebellion, is guilty of no offense
for which he should lie punished.
Resolved, That we call upon soldiers generally
throughout the State to unite with us in giving
expression upon these topics.
Challenge to Wendell Phillips.
Office of Tiie Old Guard, )
New York, May 35, 18(i7. j
Wendell Phillips, Esq. —Sir: My object in
writing fills letter is to awaken discussion on a
subject of vital importance to our country at
the present moment. If what is called “slave
ry” may lie looked upon ns being no longer a
live issue with us, the capacity of the negro for
self-government, or for becoming a component
part of tiie civil polity in Caucasian States, is
the question just now; and it is to this subject
I wish to invite your attention. I have, with
great pains, and with unfaltering devotion to
the cause of truth, searced over the whole
globe for an Instance where the emancipation of
any considerable number of negro “ slaves” has
not resulted iu the ruin of both races. All the
facts and statistics seem to prove that commer
cial ruin and moral degradation are the most
conspicuous results of such experiments. Going
back a thousand years beforo the Christian era,
to negro emancipations under Arab law, and
coming down to our time, I caunot find a sin
gle exception to this seemingly well proved
universal result. You have devoted a lifetime
to this subject. Can you refer me to a single
instance where emancipation of a large body
of negroes has not resulted disastrously to both
races ? If you can, no man will sooner thank
you than myself. Ido not wish to be self-de
ceived, nor to be the cause of misleading others;
and my ouly purpose in opening this question
to the more thorough consideration of the pub
lic is to serve my country in what I fear iu an
hour of fatal delusions. If all historic time
fails to produce an iustance of incorporating
negroes as an equal part of the polity of Cau
casian States, which lias not resulted In the
ruin of both races, it would seem to be mad
ness for our country to proceed any further iu
this path of fatal experiences. Can we, with
out self-abasement, shut our eyes to the light of
ages? I have prepared a lecture on this sub
ject which covers the whole field of negro eman
cipation—going back to its earliest history, and
coming down lo our own times; and if it would
suit your views to meet the startling facts and
statistics, which I have gathered together, by a
publie discussion of them, 1 shall hold mysolf
ready to join you at any time or place you may
name. You arc a champion of public discus
sion, and I persuade myself that this invitation
will be responded to in tbe same spirit of fair
ness and frankness with which it is made.
That there may be no misunderstanding
about the matter, I will state that my lecture
ou the History of the Results of Negro Eman
cipation forms no part of my scientific course
of lectures ou The Races of Men.
Your obedient servant,
C. Chauncby Burr.
Onr city is being made a place of concentra
tion for health nnd pleasure seekers from the sen
coast. YVe welcome them among ua and would
be glad to see Greensboro filled with some of
the elite of Augusta, Savannah and Charleston,
during these dull summer days. Greensboro
is loomed on the railroad about equal distance
between Augusta and Atlanta, and in a health
ful region of country. The superior advan
tages it possesses in every respect make it a
most pleasant retreat.
To those who desire a quiet temporary home
surrounded by agreeable neighbors, and where
society in general ranks among the best, let
them try our town, and we venture the asser
tion that if sick, they will get well, if vicious,
they will improve in morals, and if single they
will run a great risk of meeting with desirable
partners for life.— Greensboro (Ga.) Herald.
Hon. George H, Pendleton on tfce Situation.
Hon. George 11. Pendleton, by the Invitation
of the Democratic Club of Urbana, Ohio,made a
political address, not long since, in the course
of which he said:
The old political system passed away In 1861,
uud another was adopted. Its little Huger is
heavier than the whole body of that which it
superseded. No longer do we ask, Have we a
Government? Its Argus eyes seek every
where the accumulation of labor and capital,
and its Briarian a.rtns are ever grasping all
those eyes can see. Jls vast military and naval
establishments have risen with portentious ,
mein, and overshadow the civil administration
in nearly one-half t3ie country. There is no
doubt that wc have a Government—a strong
one—strong in the number of men whom it
can conscript; strong in tiie treasure it can
raise by taxation ; strong iu its power to evade
the rights of the States and the liberties of the
citizens; strong iu its capacity to override, the
Constitution ; strong as Rome was strong, cast
and west, under the Emperors; strong as
France was strong under the reign of terror
and the guillotine; but weak as they were
weak when the Goths aud Vandals avenged on
the seven-hilled city the wrongs of Germans,
or when the blood of the murdered Denton
choked the despairing Robespierre.
After reviewing the political histfiry of tb-,.
country lor the past six years, he conte»' ie( j
that the party in control of the Gover- jm ‘ ent
having become revolutionists, will go on f rom
one point to another from the recoJ>' p jlruC ( i j ou n ,-
1867 to the confiscation scheme of Thaddeus
Stevens, and from that to Y.’hatever else the
frenzy of tiie times may -prompt, till the reac
tion shall come, and the people, sated and
wearied, shall drive them from power, even
though it may be through blood. Continuing,
he said:
“ I see among many good men a tendency to
despair. I sec among my own friends a ten
dency to give up all for lost. They have lost
hope —they have lost courage—their despond
ency counsels inaction. The newspapers, the
public speeches, but above all, the private con
versations, incite the feeling. Gentlemen, Ido
not sympathize with it. I have high hope lor
the future. 1 see the dangers that, are before
“its. I see a long and weary way. I see a long
aud exhausting struggle, iu which success will
vary from the one side to the other. Ido not
conceal from myself that it may he a struggle
of the sword. Matiy of us may go down witli
the harness on iu the midst of the fight, but
hope fills my heart, aud the magnitute of the
prize nerves my arm.”
Tiie Liberty Granted to the Confeder
ates.—Admiral Sciiimcs, editor of the Mem
phis Bulletin, makes the following excellent
reply to Thurlow Weed, who said, in the New
York Commercial Advertiser, that he (Scmmcs)
had made a poor use ot the liberty accorded to
him by the Government. Admiral Scmmcs
says:
“As for Mr. Weed’s remark, that we arc
making very poor use of the liberty which has
been grauled us, &0., we have only to observe
that we are tpider no obligation to the United
States for any liberty granted us. The 1 liberty’
which we received at the surrender of (Jen. Joe
•Johnston, in whose army we held a command,
was a quid pro quo. It was given to us for a
consideration, aud that consideration was, that
we would lay down our arms that we still had
in our hands. Our liberty was the result of a
treaty lmple with the enemy on the field of bat
tle, and even savages observe such treaties.
But the United States, with a want of faith of
wliieli a savage Should be ashamed, violated its
plighted word of honor to us, and arrested and
held ns in confinement for three months. Du
ring our confinement, wc demanded our release
of the President, under our parole, and it was
accorded to us. We are exercising the ‘ liber
ty’ which belongs to us, because we purchased
it, and not liy tolerance and as a favor, as Mr.
Weed would insluuatui”
A Specimen Teacher. —ln ouc case a female
teacher wanted to borrow Cate’s bamboo to
punish a little boy. The scoundrel volunteer
ed to do the whipping, and the lads of his
class expressed their disapprobation at the
cruelty. Cate became beside himself with
rage. He wrote a solemn oath, placed it on a
Bible, and made tbe boys come up ami swear
on the Bible that they were not guilty. All did
so but filtceu. Their names were placed in a
hat, and the first name called was doomed for
punishment. The lad feared that he would be
killed, and his brother advised him to run
home, wbjeh hp did. Cate was still determined
on complete vengeance. Juto the Rat went
fourteen names, and the one drawn out was a
little follow, as good a boy as there was in
school, the son of a gentleman who occupies a
high position in the State constabulary force, a
man who made a noble war record. This boy
was struck thirty-four blows ou his hands with
a bamhqy, autl both hands were so injured that
they c&nYA ant be used for a week. Another
time tlJ> • toer: l chased a l>oy out of i.'A school
house Jfr. Alex, pi-urborn’s hick yard,
seized him by the neck and hair, and dragged
him back to the school house and beat him un
til exhausted. Visitors to the Dwight school
have seen Hie brute tajip a boy by hjs neck and
strike him with his fist right umi left, ami then
dash him to the floor. One boy wa6 detected
eating an apple in school, as boys will. The
fiend made the boy sit up on his form and eat
twelve apples as a punishment. Rostov Paper.
Clerical Indiscretion—The Wickedness
of I’ioiis People.—lt will lie a startling piece
of news to the pious people of the world that
a parson iu North Adams, Massachusetts, lias
been gt)ilty ol “an Indiscretion.” It was not.
such an indiscretion as that of the reverend
gentleman who was accused some time ago of
picking a pocket in an omnibus; nor yet such
an indiscretion as that of the other reverend
gentleman who got himself fined two hundred
ami fifty dollars lor whipping Ids child to death.
Neither was it of tlie character of the clerical
indiscretion that has lately been in the courts
and wherein a clergyman was required to cor!
rect certain financial accounts lie hod rendered.
Tt was like none of these. There wasno coarse
brutality in tills parson nor over eagerness for
tiie world’s dross, lie admired one ol the sis
ters—no harm in that!—and he ran away with
her. If we may judge by the way the parson’s
congregation look at it, there was tio harm in
that either; lor while the telegram, which yes
terday gave the details, called it a caso of seduc
tion and elopement, wc are assured to-day
from Troy that it was “ only an indiscretion.”
YVc must needs be glad to hear that the parson
has been guilty of nothing worse. YVe know
that we shall be accused of sneering impiety
for using such words of tlic chosen ones o‘s the
church ; but is it not a very tunny thing that it
should be impious in us to merely talk of these
tilings when it is only “indiscreet” iu others
to do them \—New York Herald.
De Frofun ms. —The argument of Jos. K.
Brown, at Miiiedgeville, amounts to this : If
we will vote for the enforcement of the Sher
man bill, and elect loyal representatives to
Congress who can take tiie test oath, we will
be admitted into the Union at an early day ;
but, if we refuse to do so. Congress will dis
franchise the whites and enfranchise the blacks,
and the blacks, acting from principles ot re
venge, will meet in convention and frame a
constitution by which the State government
will pass into their hands, and they thereby be
come the all-controlling power iu the State, and
the whites become the hewers of wood and
drawers of water to their former slaves. And
yet the said Joseph K. Brown proposes to act
with the party capable of perpetrating such un
mitigated meanness. In other words, he pro
poses to aid the Radicals, who would force us
to adopt their policy, or crush us beneath the
iron heel of despotism. Before we would act
with a party who proposes to impose upon
their countrymen such infamous and odious
measures, wc would submit to have our right
arms severed from our bodies, and our tongues
palsied in the utterance of such vile sentiments.
Joseph E. Brown, who was the'“ head centre”
of secession, has sunk so low that the hand of
resurrection can never reach him.

A Speech hy Jefferson Davis.—The only
speech Jefferson Davis has yet made in Canada
was delivered iu Niagara during his visit to that
place, when he was serenaded by the band of
the town and a large number of the towns
people. They were iuvlted into Mr. Mason’s
house, where Mr. Davis was staying, and intro
duced to that gentleman, who expressed his
thanks iu the following brief speech:
Gentlemen: I thank you sincerely for the
honor you have this evening shown to me ; it
shows that true British manhood to which mis
fortune is always attractive. May peace and
prosperity lie forever the blessing of Canada,
for sbe lias been the asylum to many ol mv
friends, as she is now an asylum to myself. I
hope that Canada may forever remain a part of

PERIODICAL DROPS!
THE CHEAT FEMALE REMEDY FOR
IRREG ULARITIES.
I have tested these Drops in my own practice, over ten
years, and do not hesitate to say, that nothing has yet
been developed by medical research that acta so power
fully. positively, and harmlessly, iu cases of female irre
gularity, as does this medicine. In all recent cases it
never fails, while thousand* who have been long autferera
are Indebted to tt for the boon of health to-day.
Although so powerful and positive, they are perfectly
harmless, and may be used stall times, except when
specially forbidden It, the directions.
They have been extensively employed by eminent phy
sicians in France and England, aa well as in my own
practice, ovor ten years, and I hare yet to hear of the
first instance of failure. 1 could give you testimonials of
the efficacy from ladies all over tho Nnrthern and West
orn States, were they not In their nature private. Over
100,000 bottles have been wild the past year, and I hopo
and trust as many sulferers have been benefited. I am
well aware that a remedy so potent to remove all obstruc
tions may be used for a bad purpose, but trust that where
one bottle is thus used, ten may fall into the hands of
really needy sufferers.
To all who suffer from any irregularity; painful, difficult,
excessive, offensive or obstructed Menstruation, Lucor
rliea, or the train of diseases that follow, I would say, ,
try a bottle of Da. Lyon's Fkknch Pbriodioii. Drops.
Being & Hutd preparation, their action is more direct and
positive than any pills or powders. Explicit directions,
bearing my facsimile, accompany each bottle.
They may be obtained of nearly every druggist in the
country, or by inclosing tho prlco to C. G. CLARK &
