1t is the infrmity Of the crowded heads Of
Europe, Just now, TO be afflicted with some
thing more than the average wants" Of COW
etous man,-and to obtain those wants, the
most of them are taking up arms and lead
ing their subjects TO mutual slaughter
Let Us see:
Prussia wants Holstein, and to diminish
the Austrian influence in Germany.
Austria wants Holstein to be let alone,
and Count BIsMARK 10 mind his own bust
mess.
VIcrOR EMANUEL wants Venetia. He
also wants the Emperor of Austria to take
himself out Of Northern Italy altogether.
LOUIS NAPOLEON wants the Rhine for
French frontier. He also wants 10 upset the
"detested treaties Of 1915. He expects to
have that want grati6ed as soon as opPortu-
nitv offers, which, according 70 present ap-
pearanoes, will not be long.
The Gar Of Russia has a little want, too
He wants a slice Of Turkey, which wonld
ada the Moldo- Wallachian provinces to his
already huge territory. The Bear is a
hungry, ravenous creature, out he never
springs until he is sure Of his prey. Like
the Gallo Cock, he viii be a looker-on at
the start, and only come into the ring when
the original combatants are so used up as TO
be incapable of saying nay 10 him.
The aPeople" have their wants, too, but
alas! their time is not yet come. They are
the mere pawns on the chess board, and must
he content to "wunt" nothing until the
King play out to the end, their bloody
gsme When that viii be, or what it will
be no man can tell. but it is worth living
few wears longer to see how the thing is
going to be played out

CONGRESS- AND THE INTERNAL RE-
VENUE BILL.

The Committee Of Conference on the In
ternal Revenue bill, have agreed on a report
and the bill will probably pass both Houses
tomorrow. There were but few disagree
ments on the rates of taxation, which have
been compromised as follows: On raw cot
ton three cents per pound. The income tax
is finally fixed Just as it is in the law now
in force. Gas companies are allowed to
charge the consumers with the tax until
April, 1867. Railroad companies have the
same time in which TO charge passengers
with the tax.
The cigar tax is as follows: On cigaret-
ties, short SKIES twisted heads and cherOots,
valued at not over s. per 1000, a tax of 81
per 200; on cigarettes, cherOOts and cigars
valued at over IS and not over So per 1000,
81 per 900; and when valued over SD per
1000, 81 per 1000, and twenty per cent. al
ualoreR on the value over said So.
The tax on tobacco is finally fixed as fol-
lows: On snuff, manufactured of tobacco or
any substitute for tobacco, ground, dry or
damp, picked, scented or otherwise, of all
descriptions when prepared for use or sale, a
tax of 40 cents per pound; on Cavendish,
plug, twist, and all other kinds of manufac-
tured tobacco, not otherwise provided for, q

PRESIDENT JOHNSON ps. BROwNLOw

The notorious FoRNEY is shocked. Hi,
sensibilities are disturbed. He discourses
as follows:
His hostility to Governor BRowNLow has
something of the demon in it, and his last
act to Colonel WILLIAM B. Stokes, as de-
scribed by the Nashville Press and Times, a
few days ago, exhibited something more
than hatred. 1t appears that when the
name of this brave soldier was sent to him
by the Secretary of War, to be nominated
for brevet, in recognition of distinguished
courage on the field of battle, JOHNSON
was 50 infatuated that he drew a pen across
the paper, without waiting TO have the
official act duly and decently cancelled.
The only sin committed by these gentlemen
is that they stand where JOHNSON stood at
he beginning and during the rebel
lion. They have never had a personal diff
ference with him, and yet they are bounded
by his MCCLELLAN and rebel agents as if
they were common felons. The war upon
the patriotic people of Maryland and Mis-
souri,, under the influence of the two BLAIRs,
Is simply merciless; and he who converses
with Governor HAMILTON viii be appalled,
at the manner in which that fearless states
man describes the operations Of the Presi-
dents policy in Texas. From these state
ments you can readily anticipate what his
course will be when Congress adjOurns-and
when he can freely assist the organization to
be inaugurated in Philadelphia on the 18th
Of August. Thousands ofoficers ofthe lower
grade, not requiring the confirmation of the
Senate, have been displaced, and when the
Senate adjOurns Union citizens occupy
ing the higher positions will be swept out as
with a bosom of destruction.

THE GERMAN WAR As SEEN AT
HOME.

4 gentleman from Georgia, temporarily
residing in Stuttgart, Germany, is a regular
correspondent Of the Southern CrislGn Ad-
u1cdts As he is a good observer, and has
excellent opportunities for hearing and see
ing what is going on, we copy the following
extract from his last letter, written on the
18th of MAY. lie says
see very nearly the same scenes trans
acting around and about me that / slw in
Georgia in lS6l-camps being established
drilling Of recruits; railroad trains Of troops
hurried 10 and fro; horses being pressed in
20 service; young men Of twenty TO twenty
six being torn from their situations and
families 20 fight for-what2 All, there is
no difference The Southern soldiers went
TO fight for principle, for independence, and
became patriots and heroes, whilst the Ger
man soldier is forced into service, and most
reluctantly seizes his arms against his breth-
ren TO fight for a chimera.
The war Is most uupalatable among all
classes OF peop,e-merchants manufacturers
and bankers, whose business Is already Bit
terly suffering mechanics, farmers, soldiers
and-the women. I V most opposite efforts
are continually being made at Berlin 10 pre-
serve peace ill NJ the last moment; but the
authorities seemed 90 be doomed 10 a fatal
hlindD 50. for they do not show yet the least
disposition b. listen 10 the sober, well-meant
adyices Of reason. Arrogance, greed for
annexation, the ianCied certainty Of having
the prey in their clutches, are too deeply
rooted there. The Prussian Cabinet does
not even shrink from the fearful responsible
ty Of conjuring up a general European war
with all its horrors and ruinOus consequent
Cpg Ia national t,rosnprity and individual
happiness. The Kings own family-with
the exception Of two or three Princes COM
handing some corps in the army and politi-
cal fanatics-are for peace.
The queen, the queen mother. the princess
royal and Queen VICTORIA have used their
utmost exertiOns to induce the King to
change his course. In vainl Even the
Emperor Of Russia has vainly urged that
In case Of an outbreak, he would side with
Austria. With the exception Of a few min
iature principalities hedged in by the Prus-
sian Monarchy, the whole Of Germany
stands arrayed in arms against the latter,
which has no other sympathizer and ally
than Italy. England and Russia are OPP
posed 90 war; hence, under certain circum-
stances rather d9diHsf instead Of for Prussia.
France will hardly advocate an sggrandize-
ment Of Prussia. NAPOLEON will, there
fore, az larthest, content himself with inter
vening In the course Of the war, TO secure
has own spoils and the lions share. New
elections for the Prusssan House OF Repre-
sentatives have beea ordered, and il remains
&c be seen, whether the Chambers will vote
TIE million Of treasure and men that this
fratricidal war demands or protest against
such proofs Of loyalty.

A NEW PHASE OF THE radical
SIAVETRAnE
From tho Now York worId. l

| From the New York World
| paragraph Is now going the rounds oil
| the Radical press which saws that "tbe
Freedmen's Bureau is transporting the sur
/ plus population of some Of the Southern
States to homes in various parts Of the
North" Of course, population" means
! negroes; and there is no doubt about the
transportation" since the arrival of cargoes
at New Bedford, Providence, and other New
England towns has already been chronicled
IN the local papers. But the whole thing is
only new branch Of the Radical slave
trade. The Bureau agents are furnishing
their immediate friends in New England
with cheap black servants, transported" at
the government expense. Two ends are
served by these mems. Good, but ignorant
negro servants, who, as slaves, received no
wages, are sent to "Our friend-" in Massa-
chusetts and elsewhere who will take ad-
vantage f these negroes ignoranceo Of service
value at the North and who will pay their
new and cheap servants mainly in moral
tracts and general good advice
Undoubtedly, too, the "agents" receive a
handsome commission for sending the ser
wants. The second advantage is in reducing
the number Of negro servants and laborers
in the South, and thus enhancing the value
OF the selected hands the agents have in pens
TO sell for local plantation and house use
The long experience of the Old-time negro
traders in the South failed to develop the
more profitable peculiarities of the business
which single year has shown in the Bureau,
as managed by the agents. The cant about
homes" for the deluded blacks, who are
transported" North or South as the Bureau
wills, fails to cover the actual meanness Of
the business. 1t is nothing more nor less
than the latest means Of making money out
Of the negro-trading business. There is no
such thing as a surplus population" black
or white, at the South.
If the Bureau did not interfere. every
negro in the South would be employed in
doing something besides drawing rations of
white sugar at the government expense. 1t
Is worth while to inquire, moreover if the
North is to be flooded with Surplus" South
ern negroes, who, till they know better will
work for a dollar week with an abolition
tract thrown in, thus coming into COMPETE
ton with white servants and laborers, who
naturally ask greater wages Meanwhile,
with all the blessings of the new institution
as means Of protection" to the negro, we
hear aothing Of establishing a branch of the
Bureau in Massachusetts,, to "prOtect" young
ladies Of sixteen from being publicly whip
ped in the Cambridge schools, or in Ohio, to
prevent clergy nen from pounding their
three-years' old children to death because
they will not say their PRAYERS

CHOLERA-WHATI rs 1T? AND HOW
TO AVOID IT.

From the New York Timesl
Cholera originates in human filth. 1t is
an animal poison. We know that it is only
conveyed by animal organism. 1t first came
to this country in a ship in June, 1882. The
writer then had charge of two of the prin-
cipal institutions of this city; and he then
said in the columns of the Courier and En-
gUirer, at is the disease of the wretched
and miserable" For that he was severely
censured. Now, "a years later, he is oblig-
ed to say the same thing. Is it true? In
the last number of the Scalpel this para
graph explains all that is known on the
subject
''Cholera is defective vitalization of the
blood, or want of pure air, producing defec-
tive nutrition" This causes relaxation of
the contractile powers of all the blood-ves-
sells of the body. The entire tract of intes-
tines open It's myriad blood vessels, and all
the albuminous or hesh-making material
passes off from the bowels. 1t is rapid
cholera infantum, only it preys upon adults
chiefly.
Not 4 single case of cholera occurred on
board the Atalantd, in its spacious cabins,
during all the terrible death scourging
among the poor steerage passengers. What
can be more convincing? There was filth
and confined air, animal poison in its high
est degree, depressing the eration or life re-
novation of the blood not producing
typhus fever, but cholera. The solids
Of the human body are released, when
the blood looses its life giving power,
and nnimalcules can act readily, perhaps en-
ter the blood-vessels themseIves These ami
malucules uuquestionably could pass by the
wind to the inhabitants of the spacious
cabins in the posterior part Of the vessel (;
but their blood-vessels and nerves were in
good order, and kept the tissues right enough
to prevent the entrance of the exciting
germs"
1t follows that all we can do to prevent it
is to avoid exhaustion; that it is now among
us is idle to deny. Our sanitary officers are
doing all that can be done. DIR. HARRIS is
perfectly right in his estimate Of disinefect-
ants they should be assiduously used in
every case that occurs. Let the animal
germs be killed as soon as they pass from
the body meanwhile let the patient keep
the horizontal position-it is his greatest
remedy. Camphor and laudanum. and 4
