WAR CI0I DS.

The cable telegrams bring alarming
intelligence from Europe as to the i'm
mincnt probability of a war between
France and Prussia, but we can scarcely
believe that Louis Napoleon, would ven
ture upon any rash act TO enbroil his
empire with the powerful kingdom Of
Prussia Prussia, with the Gerinanic
Confederation, now embraces popuia-
tion of forty millions, and, as military
power can cope with France. The sup
posed cause of the unfriendly relations
between France and Prussia is the re-
ported cession to France, by Holland, of
her rights to the Grand Duchy of Lux
cmburg. The fortress and capital city is
now garrisoned by Prussian army and
France can not obtain the Duchy until
that army is driven out Herein, lies the
difficulty

C0WardIy Murder Of Gen. Bailey.

The telegraph furnishes some particu
lars of the cowardiy murder Of General
Joseph Bailey, formerly of Wisconsin,
but recently of Vernon county, Missouri.
The details are the more saddening mas
much as he was killed by placing too
much confidence in two Missouri bush
whackers A Fort Scott correspondent
of the Sentinel gives the following de-
tails of this tragedy:
'On Tuesday afternoon writs were
placed in his hands for the arrest of two
men named Pixley, (bushwhackers) who
lived "a few miles from Nevada. Several
gentlemen offered to accompany him. but
be declined assistance, and started alone,
expecting to be gone about three hours
He reached the place, found the men,
and they agreed to go with him if they
could borrow saddles for their horses, but
refused to give up their arms, stating
that they had never been disarlned, and
would not be. Not fearing any treachery,
the General consented to the arrangement
They went to a neighboring house, bor-
rowed the saddles and started for town
When last seen they were riding abreast,
and apparently on the best of terms. Not
returning as expected some of his friends
rode down to the place where he was last
seen, and then returning. found the dead
body of the General lying in ravine
near the road, having been killed by a
shot in the back of the neck, the ball
ranging downward His horse, arms,
and several hundred dollars in money
In were missing. and the only trace of the
murderers was found at ford about four
miles distant, where saddle cloth had
slipped off the horse of the deceased.
Parties are out furnished with means
e.sa orders to hunt till they find them.
The rewards offered amount to about
So, ,000."
We met General Bailey at New Orleans
in the winter of 1864. He was at the
time, Lieut. Col of the 4th Wisconsin
Infantry He has been great favorite
of General Banks, but he had not made
his mark, as he subsequently did, upon
the Red River, where as an engineer, ne
immortalized himself by the release froni
great peril of our whole Red River feet
He thus acquired national reputation,
and received the thanks of Congress for
his meritorious services.
General Bailey was a man tall in figure,
and of decided military bearing. He
was modest in his department and con-
versation, yet no one could have convers-
ed with him without having felt the
sterling merit of the man. He must have
been nearly fifty years old at the time of
his assassination to the war

War, died yesterday.
An explosion in the Clover Hill coal
pits, Chesterfield County, occurred yes
terday. Twenty white and fifty color
ed miners were killed. The pits, to-day,
are burning, but the shafts are closed to
extinguish the fire, so the bodies cannot
be recoyed.
Dispatches from the Clover Hill Coal
Mines, in Chesterfield County, give no
further particulars of the disaster, except
that three explosions were heard after
the first one. An attempt was made to
descend the shaft, but the bursting out of
the flames prevented it. Nothing is
known of what occurred in the pit Thir-
ty miners, white, and thirty-nine blacks
were all at work in the mines at the time
Of the explosion.
