tan journals of stormy cabinet meet
ings being held on the new Freed
mems Bureau Bill, and a call for a
convention at Philadelphia in August
next, were the topics discussed, are
all untrue. We have it from persons
high In authority that so far not a
word has been said on the above
mentioned subjects in the meetings of
the cabinet of late. If the President
has written out veto of the Freed
mems Bureau Bill, of which there is
noldoubt, he has never yet submitted
1t to his cabinet.

of which has already been made:
General Mitre had ordered the as

the lines of the allies, in three col

another General, probably Diez.
The Paraguayans fell upon the cen

ordinary bravery, bringing eight bat
talicns of infantry and eight of cav
airy upon.the center, the same num-
Der on the left and about one half
that number on the right flank. The
battle along the whole line became
general atonce, and although the al
lies artillery poured q. a.murderousA fire
upon the Paraguayans, they did not
falter, but rushed on to break the
lines of the allies, until they came to
a hand to hand encounter, their cav

SERIOUS AccIDENT.-Dr. Vonnegut,
living on Washington. between Ala
bama and New Jersey streets, met
with very severe accident yesterday
morning The night before he had
been called out to see a patient, and,
as is proper on such occasions, took a
revolver with him. On returning
home, and while retiring to bed, he
slipped the revolver into his panta-
loon pockets. On arising in the morn
ing, and while dressing, the revolver
by some mischance fell upon the floor,
thereby exploding and wounding the
Doctor in the abdomen DR.. Bobbs
and others were called, and the
wounds dressed, We did not learn
whether they succeeded in extracting
the ball or not. DR.. Vonnegut is dan
gerously wounded but it is now

CharSes Admitted.

The editor of the Journal admits the i'm
peachment. ''Silence gives consent" and
as he has been entirely silent upon the
packing of the abolition County Conven-
ton, we have right to conclude and do
conclude that all we have said upon the
subject is so true that it cannot even be
palliated--much less denied The silence
of the Journal admits that our charges are
true. .
The public may therefore regard It ls n
fact admitted even by our political oppo-
nents, that the coming abolition County
Convention is nothing more than packed
affair, to be used by the city managers as
they may think best for their own purposes

visited upon it, and for protection against

A guilty cOnscienceis making serious work
with him. He fears to meet the RESPONSE
bilities of his frequent outrages upOn
American citizens. He breads the conse-
quenees of his repeated official tyrannies.

WASHINGTON MoRAIs.--The Washington
correspondent of the New York WdtchmaA,
religious Journal, Tins depicts the state of
morals at the National Capital under Radi-
cal auspices:
"Iicentiousness and drunkenness are the
prominent features of Washington life this
season. Members of Congress spend their
afternoons and evenings in billiard and
drinking saloons, and their nights in houses
of ill-iame or assignation. FiVe-Seyenths
of the Republican members of Congress
spend their nights in licentious dissipation.
While a majority OF the Democratic mem
bers are working for the good of the coun-
try, the opposition, relying ON It's majority,
goes in for 4 good time so called. Wash
ington, under Abolition auspices, is the
most licentious, deprayed city in the Union,
Drinking saloons, gambling houses, houses
Of prostitution and assignation are about
the Capital as side-shows are about a cir
cus. Ilarots and niggers occupy the gal
leries, smile on their pet members on the
floor, and throw kisses to the God aud mo-
rality representatives of honest eonstitu-
encies.
''sSad, sad, indeed, but every word true.
Let us hope that the next election will
send here a different class of men.
