JOIN WILLIAMS LIFTS HOUK. - John
Williams, the opponent of Maynard in
the second district, is making vigorous
canvass. He is going into every county
in the district between this and the day
of the election, and little doubt is enter
tanned Of his success He spoke to a large
audience on Tuesday, ID, at Kingston,
Roane county 1t was a glorious day for
Conservatism. There were few Leaguers
present who tried to make interruptions

A MODEST LAWYER The statement OF
the Executive Committee, which is made
upon the best authority, showing that
VIM. H. Wisener, of Bedford, received
the snug sum Of $500 out of the public
treasury for a few hours service, will
strike the people Of the State with great
force. Mr. Wisener was an aspirant for
the United States Senate before the late
Legislature He is now a candidate for
the State Senate from the counties Of
Bedford and Marshall The people of that
district will call upon him for an expla-
nation for taking this huge sum out Of
the treasury for SO small a service. They
will also naturally conclude that it is un.
safe to send him to the Senate, when the
State is so deeply in debt, and the dispO'
sition is 50 manifest to increase the
Indebtedness, to grease the fingers Of
needy Radical partisans.

EUROPEAN AFFAIRS.

We Americans are accustomed to think
and to say that we know all about Europe,
and that we are especially familiar with
European politics. We laugh at the blum
ders which Englishmen and Frenchmen
are accustomed to perpetrate in respect to
American politics; but did II never occur
us that we fall into the same errors in re-
gard to English, French and German poll
tics? We, like our critics across the waters,
when there is ripple, when there is an ap-
parent rupture, or the indication Of one,
between any two Powers, jump at once to
the conclusion that war Is imminent, and
bring the two hostile Powers to blows in o
twinkling.
As soon as the Luxemburg question was
precipitated into the arena Of discussion,
between Holland and France, and Prussia
had signi6ed its dissent, then our great
American journals set BISMARCK and NAPo-
LEON by the ears, and war was as good as
declared between France and Prussia. 1t
turns out that there has been some diplo-
matte skirmishing between the high con.
tracing Powers, but as yet nothing has
occurred to alarm anybody, or to disturb
the peace Of Europe. All that IS known
about the correspondence between France
and Prussia is that it is supposed to be
pretty sharp. What has resulted from the
letter writing Of the diplomats on either
side, has not transpired to the public. VIZ
can perdict, and we may draw differences
from the little we already know, but W,
cannot involve two great Powers like
France and Prussia in a war by simple
newspaper paragraphs uttered on this side
of the Atlantic.
1t has been officially denied by Holland
that it had any intention of ceding the
Grand Duchy to France without the con.
sent Of Prussia. 1t must be admitted
however, that the question Of turning over
this Grand Duchy to France had assumed
such shape as to demand from BTsNARcE
prompt and decisive steps to prevent it
Accordingly, we find him speaking out in
very earnest terms in the North German
Parliament, and declaring that Prussia
would hold Holland responsible for a sale
Of Luxembourg to France, and he called
upon the allies Of Prussia to sustain his
government in this resistance to French
encroachments. But all this is not war,
and the prompt and emphatic denunciation
of that great statesman, BISMARCK, has
probably, ere this, taught LOUIS NAPoLEo,'
that he must abandon his secret attempts
to disrupt the Gcrmanic States. This is
all

Amusen ents.

All the places of amusement were
crowded last eTening. The adjournment
of Congress, and the departure of q large
number of temporary sojourners from the
capital, does not seem to diminish the
crowds that nightly thrOng our places of
amusement.
METZERoTT HALr.-At this place there
was a mighty crowd, and rare entertain
ment. 1t is not often, il, indeed, ever be
fore, that the citizens Of the national Inc
tropolis have had such concert, or have
been entertained by such combination o
musical talent. Sig. BRrGNoLr and Madam
E. PAREPA Rosa are two celebrities moi
often united in any entertainment outside
of full opera. Their performances las
evening were all that heart and cultivated
taste could demand. Each time was BRIG
NoLI and PAREPA encored, and each time
did they thrill their auditors with rapturous
sounds OF harmony and sweet song. The
audience was large, intelligent, and appre-
ciativc. All we have to say is, dear friends,
come again, come again.

order and well received. We trust the

ceiye respectable sum in aid of the good

their absence from the Territories. The
leaves OF absence mentioned In the table
were in each instance previously granted,
except in the last case OF Alexander Cum
mings, Governor Of Colorado Territory,
which leave was applied for from Denver,

public necessity for such absences, so far
as is known to the Department, appear in
the table. No part Of the expenses in the
trips OF the Governors and Secretaries have
