The Worlds Washington special says:
From one who has read the dispatch
from the French Minister of State, Nous
tier, to Count Montholon, l learn that
the principal reason given by Napoleon
for delay in withdrawing the French
troops, is hat the latter have been so
severely pressed by the Mexican forces
that it was dangerous to attempt a
uation until the military situation be-
came easier. The withdrawal Of the
French forces is regarded as almost
wholly superseding General Sherman's
mission.

The Planters's Banner (La.) says :
sour lawyers, during the session of the
Court, are getting up some rather novel
ideas in regard to the former titles to
slave property in the portion of the
United States purchased of France in
1912. 1t is commended that slaves in
Louisiana were not property by the laws
of France at the time of the purchase,
and they never were made such by a
law Of this State, and therefore slavery
has never had a legal existance in Loui-
siana since it came under the Govern
ment of the United States. If this con-
clusion is sound, Louisiana has been a
free State ever since 1872, and was
equally free many years before that date.
Quite an important mistake.

THE NEWS.

The following is a brief summary OF
Eastern telegraphic news:
There appears to be a great Fenian
excitement in Ireland. Arrests are
being made and preparations in proposes
bv the British Government for suppress
ing auy revolution. The London Times
is quite severe in i,s comments upon the
people of the United States for favoring
the invasion of Canada. 1t giAes great
credit to the President, however, for the
course which he pursued, and is under
the impression that he did much injury
TO his popularity thereby.
The Imperial Commission for reor-
ganizing the French army, it is said,
will report in favor of adopting the
Prussian military system.
In regard to the Alabama affair, the
report comes that the new British Min
istry shows a better disposition for a
favorable settlement than the former
one.
Important advices come to US from
Galveston via New Orleans, stating that
General Sedgwick has crossed the Ric
Grande with a brigade of United States
troops had occupied Matamoras, under
ths claim that he did so to protect the
claims Of American residents. The dis
patch says it is not known whether this
step has been taken with the sanction
Of the Government or otherwise. a
Washington dispatch says that the
movement has been made without the
knowledge of the President.
Later kilograms appear in another
aolnmn of interest,

The Lynchburg (Va.) News says the
phenomena which usually presage, ac-
cording to the notions of the very OBJ
servant in such matters, the approach of
q hard winter, are becoming very mark
ed as the season progresses. Hives are
overhowing with honey, the husks of
corn are declared to be of extra thick
ness, and the furs of animals are pro-
nounced exceedingly rich and heavy.
1t is observed, too, that the squirrels
are making arrangements on an increas-
ed scale for the storage Of nuts.

Tho Dark Places Of Liverpool.

Commissioners appointed by the Town
| Council of Liverpool, to inquire into the
cause of the great mortality in certain
sections, draw a startling picture Of the
dark places of the city. They say:
For four years has an epidemic of ty-
plus ragged with increasing vlrulence
among the working population of Liver.
| pool. Let cholera once take hold OF
these masses of fallen humanity, and it
can scarcely be expected to leave them
until it has sucked the life-blood from
thousands. Children go to school drunk
ragged schools, of course. Women,
| for love of drink, sell every stitch they
wear, saving just the last shred of linen
and then-Heaven help the wretches-
| they sell their hair This is the evil
dence of the Rev. Father Nugent, who
speaks of one woman, the mother Of
seven children, who sold her hair to a
barber for a quart of beer. Women
have been "hard up" for drunkenness
one hundred and fourteen times and
more. In one Court the ONE were
| discovered "all drunk one Sunday
| afternoon. The children club their
pence together on a Saturday night to
have a SPREE" and get gloriously
| inebriated like their seniors. The mas
ter ofthe Hibernian School says: "You
might as we'll attempt to empty the Mer-
sey with a bucket as to apply Christian
| instruction while the food of intemper-
ance is overwhelming u.s." Chaos has
come owe the people. There seems to
be neither law, order, mol decency
among them. "Children die which are
never born," says Father Nugent.
Rents go unpaid, for the landlord fears
to be pressing, lest his tenants should
"pull the house down |" 81 have four
houses in Henderson street," says an
agent, "and there is not a piece Of tim
Der left in them. They 1.-THE occupants)
will take away the c%upboards, the stair
| cases, and the very states off the roof,
and we cannot catch them" We just
| quote one more horror. A tradesman
and his wife ruined themselves by drink.
The woman fell i'll, and lay in indie
scribable filth on her sick bed for
months. On a Saturday she died, and
remained untouched till Thursday. The
husband that day obtained los. to Sc
cure the necessary attendance, but, in
| stead of devoting the money to its pro-
per purpose, went and got drunk with
it. He went home in that state and
slept with the corpsel On Friday some
| persons sent a hearse to take away the
body, but when the men saw no person
to 20 with the funeral 'ithey took her
out and threw her down in the room
again, where she lay till the police had
her buried on the following Saturday"
As a sequel we are told, ian old woman,
who lived underneath, vas so much
shocked that she died the same night"
Such is the account which Liverpool
gives of itself.

The Judgment of Calm Observers.

HE d Judgment OF calm observers.
Calm observers of the very inauspicious
omens that marked the opening period of
the session Of Congress then remarked that
the storm elements which had been so indus
triously worked up by violent extremists,
and had been carried out so thoroughly ac-
cording to programme, would rage for con-
siderable time, but must, in the nature of
things, abate, and finally yield measurably
to reason and to the calm and steady influ-
ence of sound public opinion. Thus,
while there is left Butler, who, as the un-
doubted representative of the Jacobinical
element in our politics, in aspirit of disaf-
lection to the military and civil adminis-
tration of the Government, clamOrs for the
blood of leading rebels without respect to
action by the proper authorities touching
the point involved, yet there has been de-
yeloped, even in the radical ranks re-
pugnance to taking the lives of
even the most mischieyous of the
original conspirators against the Union,
though it is understood that the President
seeks to have it tested in the civil tribunals
of the land whether or not there has been
treason in law, working forfeiture of life
and rights under the Constitution.
While also there is more considerable
element of radical fanaticism that demands
the contiscation Of the property of leading
rebels, and the dividing up of large estates
and the bestowal of them upon negroes, we
do not see or hearmuch of any suggestions,
outside of the brutal one of General Butler,
that the people, rich and poor, shall be dis
possessed of their homestoads, '.cOmmene-
ing at Arlington and going southwards,"
Daily Ohio statesman. [volume] (Columbus, Ohio) 1855-1870, 1866-02-08

which policy would overtur1 society and
precipitate prvation, destitution, domestic p y
violence, and the destruction of hundreds 20
of thousands oflives, without respect to age
or sex, rank or condition," H"h Rs9JaHoD
We are happy to say that better senti-
ments were uttered by the speakers hat theI
meeting of the Soldiers Association on M,
Wednesday evening than when GenerH ,
Butler harapgued then, upon topics belong -, :,
ing to merely personal or partisan issuesIA .

capitalists Of New York, they have some
choice about the character OF the buildings
which they may erect. While we think it
much preferable, as far as the moral and
social training OF children is concerned, that
every family, no matter how humble it may
be-, should enjoy an entire building TO their
exclusive use, the erection of tenements of
the larger class, such as are commonin Paris
and are now proposed in New York, might
be undertaken here with profit to the pro-
jectors aud with benefit to the laboring poor
Without doubt, many families would prefer
the kind of hotel-life which these would
enable Them to lead; and at any rate, they
would create a wondrous Improvement upon
the squal' d and miserable existence which is
led in Bedford street and similar localities.
As far as we are aware, there is now under
discussion but one project which partakes OF
the latter character. A gentleman, well
known in this city, has for some past been
endeavoring TO organize a stock company for
the erection of a large tenement-house on
block of ground within halfa mile of the Ex-
change. The intention in this case is to
make the building OF a substantial character,
and, to some extent, of handsome outward
appearance; with the view of securing as
tenants those who are able to live with some
pretense TO ease, and yet are unable to pay
the rents demanded for single dwellings
which are in accordance with their tastes
Although this movement is not strictly in
the interests OF The poorer classes of laborers,
Xubosa comfOrt and honninose mo bovo non
ticularly discussed, it cannot fail of accom-
phshing much good, and we therefore bid it
all possible speed.
