+ The European news is of most in-
teresting and startling character. The
Emperor of France. heretofore grimly
reticent, except when proelaiming his
rigid neutrality and good will for all
the .beiligerents, has suddenly disturb
ed Count Bismark's splendid scheme
of a "new Germany" with Prussia as
the controlling power, by demanding
a portion Of German territory for
France.
The claim greatly and seriously
complicates the game of war or peace,
which is now being played by the
Europeao diplomats with cons,immate
acuteness and ability. Napoleon in
sists upon the RroIch frontier Of 1914,
which "includcd the Prussian towns
Saarlouis and Saarbruck, the Bavarian
town of Landau, and the Belgian
towns Of Charlemont, Mandenburg and
Chimay" The territory claimed by
Napoleon is principally Prussian, and
is in itself too insignificant to embar-
rass those who are soon to meet for the
purpose of carving and dismembcring
Kingdoms as if they were turkeys or
pheasants. It is terribly significant,
however, as the protest of the French
Emperor against the design of Prus-
sia, after eiecting Austria from the
German Confederation to make her
self mistress of the whole OF Germany.
1t is a mortal blow aimed at Count
Bismark, at the moment when he saw
no obstacle in the way following up
the great Prussian victory at Sadowa
with the most glorious results for his
country.
Napoleon holds, we suspect, a very
strong hand. His demand for this part
of German territory, which Napoleon
[. added to France, is simply polite
form of intimation to Prussia that he
does not intend that the plans of Count
Bismarck shall be carried out. When
he destroys the proposed unity Of all
Germany with Prussia as the ruling
power, he snatchcs from the Prussians
the most tempting and valuable fruit
of their late victories.

Twas brave day in Nashville,
And brave { well might be,
When twice FIVE thousand freedmen
Came up from Tenuessee
And Andrew johnson bade them
Bless God that they were free
His words to all those freedmen
Were sweet as life could be;
Sweet as our dear Lords Gospel,
In wondrous Galilee;
al, Andrew Johnson, hereby
Proclaim" tso thundered he,)
"Full, broad and unconditional,
The rights Of liberty"
(Thus spoke the Chief "to every man
In the land of tennessee
And | will bo your Moses
And lead you through the sea
Through the Red Sea Of servituds,
To n future of liberty !"
oh twas n thing to glad you,
thing to make you weep,
To see ten thousand slaves arise,
Like SAMSON from his sleep,
And over their whips and letters
Like children dance and leap
To see their faith, so ehildlike,
As up from Slaycry's rack
Arose the branded forehead,
Arose the bended back,
And tho soul emerged, in sunlight,
Beyond its temple black,
To hear bold Andrew johnson
Proclaim, with voice so free,
"True men alone, whether white or black,
Shall govern Tennessee
And l will be your Moses
And lead you through the sea-
Through the Red Sea of servitudr,
To future Of liberty !"
Oh what a throb of life-blood
Thrilled up from Tennessee,
When all those loyal freedmen,
With shouts of childlRe glee,
Cried out to Andrew johnson,
"0ur Moses thou shalt be "
Oh, what a sound Of gladness!
crash like breaking chains;
A fash, as of fire electric,
That flooded heart and veins
When Andrew johnson answered.
SO be it as God ordains
No longer shall rebellion,
No more shall slavery"
(Thus spoked bold Andrew Johnson)
"Pollute our Tennessee
For | will be your Moses!
To lead you through the sea
Through the Red Sea of seryitude,
To a future of liberty!"
Back to their homes deserted,
Aud back to lifelong toll,
The branded brows the bending necks,
The yearning souls recoil;
They wait for Andrew johnson,
On all the Southern soil.
Behind them lies their bondage,
Aud there the Red Sea rolls
The wilderness before them,
Unwinds its desert scrolls;
They wait for Andrew johnson,
With dumb and fearful souls
In all the fair, wide Southland,
They wait on weary knee,
For him who bade them trust him
For him who said -" BE free
And will be your Moses
To lead you through the sea-
Through the Red Sea of servitude,
To future of liberty !"
