1t was reserved for rebel and trait
or to pay inyoluntarily the highest til
butte of praise which has ever been
awarded to the much praised and great
ly loved Henry Clay Pollard, Of Rich
mond, in his smart reckless, lying
Southern History of the War, says:
The persistent adhesion of a large
portion Of the Kentucky people to the
Northern cause must be attributed to
permanent causes; and among these
were, first, an essential unsoundness on
the slavery question, under the infiu-
ence of the peculiar philosophy of Hen
ry Clay, who, like every great man, left
an impress upon his State which it re-
NAMED for future even more than con-
temporary generations to attest
This acknowledgement that only as
men are interested in slavery, are they
interested in the rebellion, is one that
should not be lost, at this time. 1t
adds weight to the arguments we have
already urged in support of the doc
trine that the destruction of the insti-
tuition is necessary to the perpetuity Of
the Union.
Another thing is also acknowledged,
that Kentucky does not desire to 20
with the rebels, and consequently that
the Confederate claim to that State is
an absurdity.

e7rand, explained that every considera-
ton was to be sacrificed to the interests
of England; that at the approaching
conference which might possibly turn
into a general congress the influence OF
England would be negatived if she con-
tinued TO barbor the foe of Napoleon
III Napoleon was ready, in the pleni-
tude of his grace, to overlook the first
outburst of enthusiasm, but not TO
tolerate the continuance of these ova-
tons The Ministry had decided that
Garibaldi must go. and he left it to the
Duke to break the news as best he
might to his guest.
The Duchess Of Switzerland under
took the disagreeable mission, and the
General, duly notified, at once made
preparations to leave.
The matter is Of no special impor-
lance, further than illustrating the as
cendancy Of Napeleonic influence in
England, and the Emperor's disappro-
baton of the Garibaldi ovation. The
time was, when an intimation of this
sort from the French Court would have
been treated with contempt by the
British Government, which seems now
to hold the same relation to the Cont
mental Power that she held prior to the
Protectorate, under the feeble reign Of
Charles l.

GarIbalal and England.

Garibaldi appears to have been driv-
en- out OF England, Notwithstanding
official denials, both French and Eng
fish, by pressure of French influence in
the British cabinet Mr. Karl Blind.
Garibaldfs intimate friend, writes to
the New York Post thus
"If Garibaldfs own testimony Is
worth anything with respect to the
cause of his sudden departure-and
none viii deny that he ought to have
a chief voice in the matter-then You
may assume that he goes because the
English Government have limited 10
him that his continued presence would
ambarrass them with regard to the
Government of France. This is the
sum and substance Of an oral commu-
nication made by Garibaldi to one who
sits not a hundred miles from the desk
where pen these lines. The names of
those who have conveyed the Napole-
onic intimation TO him. are also no
secret Dir. Gladstone and Lord Shaftes-
bury performed the operation. In
Parliament ofcourse, the usual amount
OF hard-what shall / call it?-state-
ments were gone through by Lord
Clarendon. as well as by Lord Palmer
ston.
The same authority states that Carl
baldi himself, in speaking of the mat
ter, said that he was driven out of Eng
lana" Dr. G. Basil, the Generals Sur
geon, writes to the London Morning

night, to the Duke of Sutherlan6gs /

that it was imperative Garibaldi should

Nore cleanliness Necessary.

The hot seasOn-is approaching, and
with it will come the diseases incident
to tropical weather. and it is the duty
of whoever has charge of the matter,
TO see that our streets are kept clean,
and that no sinks Of miasma be allowed
to Turk in any of the alleys and lanes.
To secure an object so desirable, so ne
cessary to the health of the city, more
scayengers are needed, and a better or
ganization should be effected
There are to-day, in the military
prison, men enough to keep the streets
clean; and it would be better for their
health, as well as that of the city, if
they were kept at outdoor exercise.
Take, say 800 of these, and place them
under a captain, assisted by two lieu
tenants, and a sufficient number of non
commissioned officers, and divide them
up insquads, TO police certain districts,
and the city would be kept in healthy
condition. A medical officer of skill
and energy should likewise be detailed,
to keep a general supervision Of the
matter and who should be annoyed by
no other duties.
More than half the disease incident
to cities, is unnecessary, and arises from
filth in back yards, alleys and byways
Gen. Butler proved that even New Or
leans was a healthy place, notwithstand-
ing its situation; and in place so ia
vorably located as Nashville, the health
should be as good as in the country.
Let something be done, before it is too
late
