A SAD DEATH.-Dr. Nathan Hayward
of St. Louis, son Of DR.. Hayward of Bos-
ton, and surgeon of the Goth Massachu.
sets regiment during the war, died sud-
denly of cholera at the former city, on
Friday, and was buried frcm Rev. Dr.
ElliotJ's church there on Sunday. Dr.
Hayward was young man of fine quail
tiles, had been settled in St, Louis in his
profession for but year, and was Civ
ing himself up with enthusiastic devo.
ton to the care Of the many sick wira
the cholera there, when she disease ar
rested alike his philanthr0pic labor and
life. DR.. Hayward was a graduate of
Cambridge College, and proved ona of
the most efficient surgeons that our
State sent to the war. On one occasion
after terrible battle, he kept at work
for thirty-six hours in treating the
wounded and making amputations, and
the great strain upon his system caused
his hair to turn suddenly white. His
now sudden death, ia this other Geld OF
devoted labor, falls like crushing blow
upon a wide circle Of friends in Boston,
and also here in Springfield it comes
with peculiar sadness to a few, for he
was about to he married to the youngest
daughter of Mp. Charles Howard. The
wedding day had been appointed for ear
ly in September, and all arrangements
were perfected for the consummation OF
an engagement so shockiugly arrested by
death.-SpTaqfeh Republican,.

PRESIDENT JoHNsuN's PROCLAMATION.
The proclamation of President john
son, declaring one of MaXimilian's de-
crees null and void and made in viola
ton of the law of nations, is destined to
have no little influence on the future of
the austrian adventurer," and will
probably cause him to hasten up the
settlement of his affairs and make his
contemplated flight to Europe a little
quicker than he intended. The words
of the proclamation recognizes him as an
usurper; it speaks Of him as one who
asserts himself to be the Emperor of
Mexico!" and speaks Of "the treaties ex-
listing between the United States Of
America and the United States Of Mex
leo" as being still of binding force.
There is also peculiar significance in
the last sentence of the body of the pro-
clamatiOn, that ''any attempt which
shall be made to enforce the same against
the government or citizens of the United
States sciH be 9iSall0Wed" The President
clearly intimates that he Is prepared to
enforce the position which he has taken
if events should make it necessary for
him to DO so, and the presence of large
military force at Brownsville, just across
the river, under the command of Gen
Sheridan, is enough to guarantee the
success of our arms should it become
necessary for this government to main
tain the position which it has taken.
The port Of Matamoras, lying on the
Rio Grande opposite Brownsville has
long been in the hands Of the Liberia
party. 1t is one of the principal ports O
| Mexico in communication with the
/ United States. Under the immediate
presence of our troops stationed there
the authority of Macmillan has Ions
since ceased to be recognized, and the
decree of Macmillan was merely a era
tuitous assertion Of power which he die
not possess. This proclamation of thu
President will now bring things to
crisis.

MIssoURl.-The rebels in Missouri are
disposed to turbulence and riot in view
OF the approaching election and the
necessary registration Of electors. Gov.
Fletcher has accordingly issued aprocla-
nation announcing that the laws of the
State will be enforced, and directing the
officers to call upon the militia whenev-
er they are resisted in the execution of
their duties. No armed or organized
body Of men will be allowed to appear
at the polls or peaceful assemblages of
the people except by order OF the Gov
ernor or department commander. All
citizens are urged to aid the constituted
authorities in the maintenance Of good
order

NAPOLEON AND PRUSSIA. Louis Ma
poleon is certainly an adept at backing
down. His reception OF Prussia,s refusal
to accede to his demand for the Rhine
provinces was model in its way. He
only put forth the demand to satisfy the
public sentiment Of France and though
he thought it just, he acknowledged the
fairness of the King of Prussa's argu-
ment in declining it-thus distributing
compliments all round. But he has
met with a serious rebuff, nevertheless
though it will not weigh upon his mind,
for it is not of sensitive or serious cast.
This little incident, indeed, proves what
Cavour once said, to the effect that the
French Emperor did not have any real
convictions, but series of designs, any
one of which he would take up accord
ing to convenience and push till he en-
countered decided obstacles, when he
would drop it and take up another. But
this failure with Prussia must have a
marked effect upon his prestige as a
ruler, aud the time is coming, perhaps,
when he may need all he has.

TIE PARAGUAYAE WAR.-Letters from
Buenos Ayres say that the common feel
ing in a!l quarters is for peace with the
Paraguayans. The politicians are only
for q continuation Of the war, and the
mediation offered by the Emperor Napo-
leon will probably be declined until
another battle takes place, which the
allies hope will be in their favor. 1t is
pretty evident, according to common be-
lief, that Napoleon has his eyes on some
thing or other which includes his own
interests. Since June Is, there has been
no material fighting. The allied feet is
anchored below Fort Curupaiti, and has
shelled that fort, but at so great dis
tauce that there is no probability Of
much damage having been done. The
feet cannot pass up, as so many obstruc-
tions have been placed in the river that
no boats can approach. The Paraguay
ans haze loaded launches with stones
and SUNK them in such order and num-
bers as u make small cataract, over
which the water dashes constantly. It
is said alsothat the river is full of tor
pedoes, but gpne have yet been found.
The fort Curtpaiti is well fortified, and
it contains q large garrison. Baron
Porto Allegro is aid to be at Itaty with
10000 troops, WIN have not yet had a
brush with the paraguayans. He is
also supplied with snimals. 1t is also
understood that morements will be de-
layed until he reaches the allied camp.
But at various points On the river there
are Paraguayan batterits that may i'm
pede the arrival of these new fo1ces.

The Com CRoP OF THE UNITED
SrArEs.-An Ohio correspondent of the
Cincinnati Gazette gives some Interest
ing statements of the corn crop of this
country, and by some tabular statistics
shows that the average increase of this
crop is about five per cent. per annun.
In 1910, the crop was 377, 5Sl ,s75 bushels
in 1850, 592,67l, l04 in 1860, s30,45l,-
707 and the estimated crop for 1866, is
l,0S9,00OO00,
The different portions Of the United
States where this crop is the staple are
as follows:
New England, New York and New
Jersey, 3S,94S,S 800 bushels.
Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware,
Virginia, North Carolina and South Car
olina, 12S, 99S, 249 bushels.
Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi
Louisiana, Arkansas and Texas, l47,-
425, 720 bushels. Ohio, Indiana, Him
OILS, Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri,
Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa
and Kansas, $50 627 ,94S bushels.
1t will be seen from this that the main
dependence of the nation for this crop is
in the valleys of the Missouri, Ohio and
upper Mississippi rivers and of these
States above mentioned Illinois is the
one in which it is produced in the great
est quantity. In Ohio the average yield
per acre for the last twenty years has
been thirty-three bushels, although as
many as one hundred and eighty
bushels have been grown on a single
acre. There is also many counties in
the State where the average product is
over forty bushels.

BoUNTIEs TO VETERANS There is
likely to be a hitch in the payment of
bounties to veterans. The bill especially
provides for those who enlisted for three
years, and served their full term. In
1852, enlistments in old regiments were
encouraged by an implied, if not posi-
tive assurance, that recruits would be
entitled to all the benefits accruing to
veterans. Many enlisted for three years
or the war, and were mustered out after
a service of IL months and odd days.
These last, In the opinion of the Bounty
Regulation Board, are not entitled to
bounty.

CIVIL RIGHTS IN GEORGIA.-A gentle
man residing at Lawson, Ca, writes to a
government official in Washington, the
following account OF the manner in
which the civil rights law is enforced in
that section:
'You wish to know what is the effect
OF the removal of troops from here.
Well, | will mention one instance which
came under my own notice, to enlighten
you. A Mrs. Adams (colored) had
quarrel with a white woman because
the latter made scandalous charges
against her. The white woman had
Mrs. Adams arrested, and she was taken
before Judge z. King Of ClinCh County,
who sentenced her to receive 50 lashes,
which sentence was carried into effect
by the Sheriff. sent word to Gen. Will
son of the affair, and although the latter
officer sent subordinate to investigate
the case, no punishment has yet been
melted out to these violators of the Civil
| Rights bill. This is not the only case of
like character that has come to my
| notice since the removal of the troops.
| So long as the latter were here (they
were colored) no magistrate dared dis.
regard the law, because the officers
were known to administer justice when
need be-"
Thus it will be seen that the freedmen
have at the present time no more rights
in the late insurgent States than they
had while they were in bondage, and
Notwithstanding that the law OF the
land proclaims equal rights to all, they
in the portions of the South from which
the U. S. troops have been removed, are
still subjected to the most inhumar
treatment at the hands of their late
masters. Such cases as that of Mrs
Adams evidently did not come to the
knowledge Of Gems. steadman and Full.
lerton previous to their making their re.
port on the practical workings of the
Freedmens Bureau.
