like the sound Of flutes on the water.

feels as il it bathed in the cool, ex-
h%ilarating spring. Have YOU ever

wandering voice to this day. Some
times Il comes to us in the midst o.
care. OF sorrow, or irksome business,
and then we turn away and listen,
and hear Il ringing in the RON like
silver bell, with power to scare away
the evil spirit Of our mind. How
much We owe to that sweet laugh

flowers Of sunshine over the dark.

Foreign News.

The following additional foreign
news has been received since our last
issue:
The London Times, Of the 18th,
says the diplomatic rupture with
Prussia is now complete. The Aus
trian Minister has demanded his
passports, and was to have left that
day. Such n contamination was to
be expected after the correspon-
dence that passed between the two
Governments during the last few
days. The dispatch of Count Bis
mark went beyond every such docu-
ment in discourteous invectives and
p~rovocations, and it has been replied
TO by Count Mensikoff, in a more
guarded style, but in language which
shows offended pride.
The Austrian Minister for Foreign
Affairs makes a solemn protest against
the proceedings in Holstein and the
statements by which il has been at
tempted to justify them. He declines
all responsibility for the consequent
ccs, and declares that for months
Prussia has taken up a position
which endangered the former settle
ment. In conclusion, Count Mensi-
kofi reserves to the Imperial Gov
eminent the right to take such steps
as may be found necessary, since
nothing remains for Austria but to
defend her honor and guard her
rights from contempt.
The intelligence that Garibaldi has
reached Como, the scene Of his former
brilliant exploits, is announced.
A letter from Napoleon to his
former minister, was read on the
18th. He says that had the confer
cnce met, France would have repudi-
ated all idea of territorial aggran-
dizement so long as the European
equilibrium remains undisturbed,
much preferring a good understand
with her neighbors to any territorial
acquisition. France would have de-
vised for the German Confederation
a more worthy position, for Prussia
better geographical boundaries, and
for Austria the maintenance of her
great position in Europe, after the
cessation of Ncnetia aud the Italian
exchange for territorial compensation.
And though the Conference ha.
failed, France and her Emperor think
she will not have to draw the sword,
but will continue to observe an atti-
tude of neutrality.
The letter was received with loud
cheers by the members, and, on the
motion Of NJ. Rouhrer, the Chamber
By a large majority, decided against
entering upon debate on the affair
Of Germany and Italy.
FARTHER PofST, June 25.
The Moravian has passed here
with dates to the 10Th instant.
It was rumorcd that Austria hat
declared war, but the latest advice
do not confirm the report.
The Emperor Of Austria, in |
speech on the lith instant, said
ave have done everything else, ant
now we have to resort to the sword

RADICAL LIES AND SOUTHERN
PHILosopHy.-There is not the
iightest use in the Southern press OF
our public men contradicting and re-
iusing the numerous false and SIAN
derous stories circulated about them
by the radical press Of the North and
their partisan orators. 1t is labor
bt-breath expended in vain. Con-
tradictions and refutation5 are un-
necessary. The readers of the orig
inal SANDER or falsehood seldom sees
the denial or disproval. As a gen
eral rule sincere inquirers after truth
are few, men only believe what they
wish TO believe and we can assure
our readers that our enemies are ever
ready to credit any report to our in
jury. These things are done for
political effect, the lie is paid for, the
journal sells and flourishes, the edi.
Tor is satisfied, and the wretched au-
thor. with the stipend Of iniquity, !.
enabled to prolong his useless and
wrctched existence and await a search.

ElGILANTEs IN WALLA WALLA-A notice
lately appeared in the Walla Walla States
man, purporting to emanate from the Yigi-
lante organization. A correspondent comes
back with some very pertinent questions rel
alive TO the object of the organization and
the motives of the managers. He says.
I'd. The committee say they will s,execute sum-
mary Justice between the perpetrators of crime
the committee whether or not they, as members of
the organization, call themselves law>abiding cit>
liens. II they are law-abiding citizens. then
am certainly not. The supreme law Of the land.
(suppOsed TO be supreme,) teaches that t'no per-
son shall be deprived of life, liberty property,
except by due process of law" and have always
been taught to revere and obey the supreme law.
Show me, who will, why l should favor anarchy
and mobocracy now. Cannot the laws of the land
be maintained here? believe they can, aud JUS
tlca meted out much better in this way than it can
be done outside of the laH, by Tom, Dick and
Harry. wish to see the perpetrators of crime
punished, AMI punished to the full extent of the
law; what good citiz en- does not? 1t seems to me
that if some of the people of this community
would show half the zeal and industry in ferretng
out crime in lawful way, that they do in mid
night excursions and in a hap, hazard way, life and
property would be much more secure and the ends
OF justice much better maintained. eH3
Ii vigilance committee rule is to usu:p the func
tiOns OF courts of law, and take cogniZance of all
offences, no matter OF what grade, then we can
have no need of constitutions, Lawson courts, and
the useless appendages might as well be abolished
altogether, and every one turn his attention to-
bushWhacking as the safest and best nude Of pro.
tecting his liIe and property.
