The European war continues to rage
The efforts of Austria, backed by France,
to secure the respite afforded By an arm
istiee. have not been successful, and the
last advices bring accounts of another
battle. fought on the 18th, In which the
Prussians were again victorious The
Austrians were fortifying Vienna, though
there is little probability of their being
able to hold it against their powerful en-
emies. The great battle of Sadowa.
fought on the Sd, in which the Austrians
were utterly routed, was one Of the most
desperate struggles on record, the com
batants numbering considerably over
two hundred thousand men on each side,
the aggregate being more than half mil
lion, comprising nearly the entire availa-
bic force Of both parties, and the field was
contested for twelve hours with desperate
bravery. In the early part of the day the
Austrians had the advantage, but about
two O'Clock in the afternoon the Prus-
SLAMS, without being observed, succeeded
IN gaining a position on the Austrian
flank, which speedily turned the tide
against them and resulted in their utter
rout. No official statement of the loss
has been published, but from the num-
oeFs engaged, the length Of time the bat
lie lasted, and the desperation with which
both parties fought, it must have been
Tery heavy. In case the negotiations now
bending fail to restore peace, Napoleon
viii doubtless soon become marty IN the
contest.

The restoration of the State of Tennes-
eeto her full rights in the Union. inelud-
ing representation in Congress, gives very
general satisfaction throughout the couD-
try, and it is to be hoped it will prove the
] prelude to a similar movement on the
part of the other States lately in rebellion.
/ Whatever the differences of opinion as to
the mode of accomplishing the end. there
IS a universal desire on the part of the
people of the country to see an era of bet
ter feeling lnangurated, of which there Is
little hope Whilea considerable portion
of the States remain in their present an
omalous condition. Tennessee returns
under the conditions prescribed in the
constitutional amendment, the chief de-
sign of which IS te afford guarantees
against a recurrence of the same dis
tressing scenes through which we have
passed, aud to prevent the rebellious
States from reaping the advantage of in
creased representation in Congress as
one Of the results of their efforts to des-
troy the Government The conditions
imposed are just and reasonable under the
of the case, and should be I
readily and eheerfully acquiesced in bv
the States to which they apply. One of
the Tennessee Senators and five of the
Representatives have already qualified
md taken their seats in Congress. The
'thers who can take the oath will doubt
ess soon follow their example.

The GAINESVILLE Signal saws that one of
the young ladies' belonging to the High
School Ia GAINESVILLE, who had passed the
usual examination of a graduate, sud-
denly took it into her head to get married.
This important event, however, was but a
temporary interruption to her attendance
at school, and she still claimed the right
to graduate. As so novel an application
was totally without precedent, considera-
bic excitement and some opposition was
caused among the trustees, which at
length ended IN a compromise, and the
young lady was allowed to graduate un-
der her maiden name.

EDS. JEFFRRsoSIAN:- your is
sue of week before last, an article
appears in relation to the construc'
tion of n bridge over stream known
as "Flat Branch" in which it is al.
legged that the Commissioners have
expended money in building this
bridge "back from any public road
whore it is not probable that tray
eller will pass for twenty years, as
there has been no road opened out
and there is no intention Of laying
one out" In order that justice may
be done in the premises. wish to
say that the bridge is being con
structed on n public highway that
was surveyed and granted some
years ST. ce, and has been for some
time opened out as far as this stream,
which, for large part of the year,
made the route impracticable fol
teams. This bridge thus enables
those who desire it, TO go on aud
open out the road and also rende,
accessible large tract Of woodlands
which otherwise were well nigh ou'
Of reach.
The bridge will be used and Of i'm
mediate value to the neighOorhood,
and makes the opening OF the road O
practical tliing-a matter that will be
attended to.
Very Respectfully,
J. L. WooDs.

nov ir ArrEcrs THEM.

Many Of our readers may not be
fully alive TO the importance OF the
action of the people at the late cleo.
ton. The effect is plainly seen in
the change OF tone OF the Southern
press. During the compaign, they
were boastful, defiant and supercili
Gus in their bearing toward the
North. They seemed to think that
they had only to deman,l--not ask
and with the help of their friends and
allies in the North, they could force
Congress TO accede.
Now, how different. The immense
majoritics rccciccd by the Union can.
didntcs in all the States where cleo
tions have been held, aud the abso
lutte certainty that those yet to come
or will follow suit, has operated on
them exactly as did the capture OF
large bodies OF their troops. during
the war. They now feel that, with n
stronger Union Congress than be-
fore, with the loyal people OF the
North made more radical by their
acts of violence and overbenring
conduct, their cause is hopeless, as
regards the assumption of their for
mer power, and instead of arrogating
TO themselves the privilege of max
ing the terms OF reconstruction,
many oftheir leading papers are urg
ing the adoption Of the Constitu
tional Amendment.
We have no doubt that this is from
purely selfish motives. They begin
to realize more fully the fact that we
have them in our power, and wisely
conclude "rather to suffer the ills they
have than ay to others they know not
Of" They no doubt fancy that by q
seeming acquiescence with the ruling
Of Congress, they will the sooner
be admitted to their old places, when
they can again assume the reins Of
government as OF old. In this, how.
ever. they will find themselves sadly
mistaken. The loyal people cannot
so readily forget the immense loss OF
blood and treasure as to so soon sur
render their liberty to those who so
wickedly endeavored to ruin aid de.
vastate the country Stand by our
loyal Congress and all will yet be
well.

sweetness can never be recorded,
even by pen of an angelic being
1t must be heard in order to be felt
and appreciated. l saw old gray

Ajaxes, at Saratoga, who consider it
unmanly to weep, even when they lay
