The Prophecy Of Calhoun.

In 1887, when Abolition petitions were
first presented to Congress, John G. Calhoun
uttered the following prophetic language
concerning them:
GAS widely as this incendiary spirit has
spread, it has not yet infected this body, or
the great mass of the intelligent and bust.
ness portion of the North; but unless it is
speedily stopped, it will spread and work
upward till it brings the two great sections
of the Union into deadly conflict.
GA large portion of the Northern States
believe slavery to-be E sin, and would be-.
lieve it an obligation to abolish it, if they
should feel themselves in any degree re.
sponsible for its continuance, and that his
(Webster's) doctrine would necessarily lead
to the belief of such responsibility. T then
predicted it would commence as it has, with
this fanatical portion of society; and that
they would begin their operations on the
ignorant, the weak, the young, the thought
less, and would gradually extend upward
till they become strongto obtain political
control, when he and others holding the
slightest stations in society, would however
reluctant, be compelled to yield to their
doctrine, or be driven into obscurity.
ssThose who imagine that the spirit now
abroad in the North will die away of itself
without shock or couvulsion, have formed
very inadequate conception of its real
character; it will continue to rise and spread,
unless prompta and efficient measures to stay
it progress be adopted Already it has ta-
ken possession of the pulpit, the school, and,
to considerable extent, Of the press--those
great instruments by which the mind of the
rising generation will be formed. -
"However sound the great body of the
non-slaveholding section are at present, in
the course of few years they will be sue
ceeded by those who have been taught to
hate the people and institutions and nearly
one half Of this Union, with hatred more
deadly than one hostile nation ever enter
tanned toward one another. 1t is easy to
see the end. But the necessary course Of

DECISION OF THE FRENCH TRIBUNAL
IN THE CASE OF THE ALABAMA From
the Opiaione Nationalc, of the 25th ult.,
We translate the following highly important
official decision {:
In the eyes of France, the Northern
States and the Southern States of the A.
mericau Union are belligerents, that is to
say, two nations in state of war.
The Union not having accepted the dec
laration Of the Congress of Paris abolish
ing privateering, has right to issue letters
of-marque.
The vessel Alabama, carrying the flag of
the Southern States, cannot be regarded as
pirate, but merely as priVateer, since
she respects neutrals, and makes use of
force against none but the enemies Of the
Confederates.
Hence, the burning at sea of q ship and
the merchandise it contains, constitutes an
act of warfare for which the insurers are not
responsible without special agreement.

aMoNsRuR ToNsoN COME AGAIN.
The immortal Parson BroWnlow has turned
up again-tkis time, in letter to the Gin
cinnati Commercial, breathing fire and de-
struction upon the "rebels." He says:
For my part, have every confidence in
our ultimate success. Let Rosencrauz be
reinforced, and be will whip the whole Con-
federacy. The mediation l advocate is that
of the cannon and the sword and let there
be no armistice, on sea or land, until all the
rebels, front and rear, North and South,
are subjugated or extermiuated. And then
let condign punishment be speedily meted
out to the surviving leaders in this unholy.
crusade against civilization. My motto lis;
Greek fire to the masses and hell fire for the
leaders. And none but the loyal should be
consulted in the great casting up Of these
accounts. W. G. BROWNLOW.

SHORT RATIoNs.-Rosencranz's men
must be on short allowance, Judging from
the following incident, related by corres.
pondent.of the Rome Courier:
Several little incidents have occurred
within the past few days, tending to show
that the enemy are already short of rations.
One was that, to day, to meet flag Of truce,
the Yankee officers came out on foot, thus
leaving the inference that their horses had
been sent off for forage. A Yankee pick
ct, yesterday, came out towards our line,
and laying down his blanket very good
one by the way-said to one of our pickets,
eff you will bring and leave at this place a
piece of bread, you may have the blanket" +"
and returned to his post. Our man carried
the bread and took the blanket. Another,
in similar manner, gave canteen full of
whiskey for pone of bread.

A Lesson from History

IA A<SooSh kAS 4416G0lJs
Strange as it seems now no man has ever
lived iD America who was more thorough
ly denounced and abused than George
Washington at one time. tWas not all
likely that such character should appear
at any period above the public horizon, and
especially aperiod Of great political convul.
sion, without exciting ,jealously, miscon.
struotion, envy, hatred, malice, and all un-
,charitableness We defy any public man
to pass through the world without enemies
who discharges his duties without fear, ia.
vor or affection. Washington, whilst his
shoulders were broad enough to carry
through such war as the American Revolu.
tion, by his almost unsupported strength,
bore himself with such proud dignity and
reserve, and had such an infexi6le viii of
his own, that he was never, tillhe compile.
ted his great work, in much danger Of the
"Wo unto you when all men shall speak
well Of you," which the Gospel pronounces.
For seven long years he toi!ed and struggl.
ed not only against British arms, but against
the detraction, and open and SECRET oppo:.
sition of his own countrymen. Not only
his political, but his military character was
,aspersed it was said chat he had never
gained a battle, that he was always retreat.
ing, and others were mentioned, who were
said to be much filter than himself to lead
the armies and guide the affairs Of State
Even some of his own friends deserted him,
and at one time his majestic form stood al
most alone, but still proudly erect, selfre.
liant and heaven supported. Even after he
had delivered che nation from the house of,
bondage, there we're not wanting many to-
.murmur against him, as the Israelitss q.
gainst Moses, and as mankind-in every age
have murmured against their greatest bene.
factors. He was accused of being in the
interest of the very country from which he
wrested the Independence of America, and
of desiring to impose Government akin to
monarchy upon the United States. All

Chickamauga, or River Of Death.
A correspondent of the Charleston C0u-

H.
Chickamauga, or River Of Death.
A correspondent of the Charleston Cou-
rier says:
In the spring of 1885,. while seeking the
benefit of change of climate and relaxation
from laborious duties. I met the late Col.
Whitesides at Chattanooga. Among other
interesting traditions associated withvarious
localities in this beautiful region of country,
be related one in explanation of the mean.
ing of the word "Chickamauga," and how
it came. to be applied to the two small
streams which bears this name. A tribe
Of the Cherokees occupied this region, and
when the small pox was first communicated
to the Indians of this continent, it appeared
in this tribe, and made frightfal havoc a.
mong them. 1t was the custom of the In
diaus, at the height of the disease to 60 by
scores and jump into the river to allay the
tormenting symptoms. This Of course in.
creased the mortality, and the name "Chick-
amauga," or "River of DEATH" was appli-
ed to the two streams, which they have
borne ever since. The remnant Of the tribe.
was also afterwards called the "Chickamau-
ga tribe" We hope Gen. Bragg will call
this great victory the battle of Chickamau-
ga and not "Pea Vine Creek" or "Craw-
fish Springs" as is suggested in Hoseu-
crauz's despatch. He has certainly craa0.
fshed ont of Georgia, but we prefer "Chick.
amauga," or "River of Death"

THE STORY ABOUT DRINKING BLOOD.
AT the late session of the South Caroli-
ma Legislature, member in the course of
debate sueeringly referred to the oft quoted
promise of distinguished gentleman to
"drink all the blood that would be shed in
consequence of secession The allusion
was to the Hon. Armistead Burt, of Able
vile, S. G. Another member rose and sta
ted that Colonel Burt had been misrepre.
sented. His expression was, that, If the
Border SHates-Virginia, Maryland, Ken.
lucky and Missouri-joined With the rest
of the South in the movement, no war would
ensue, and he would agree to drink all the
blood that should be she'd The condition
of the pledge never was fulfilled. Hence
the injustice and absurdity of making him
,esponsible fora pledge he had never given.
