THE NORTH GERMAN PARLIAMENT
Speech by Count Bismarck.

BERLIN, September 25.--In the Reichstag yes
terday, after the presentation of the bills cou-
cerning the obligation of military service, ma
tonality, and the mercantile navy, the discus
sion OIL the address cOmmenced:-
M; Bebel (SaSonl blamed the policy pursued
by the Government in the question of Luxem-
bourg rnd North Schleswig, and contested It's
right to speak of successes obtained.
Count de Bismark replied that Luxembourg
had not been separated from Germany; that she
was in the same position as formerly, aud gov
erned by the same dynasty. Prussia had only
renowned a doubtful right of garrison. In
avoiding war the King was entitled to the graft
tude OF the nation.
The three first paragraphs We're then adopted.
Count de Bismark again rose and declared
that the Government recognized in the diress
a testimony given by the Reichstag in face of
Southern Germany and foreign nations, and not
as an invitation to more rapid action. The cir
cular of the 9TH indicates the point of view of
the Government. If the nation wishes for unity
no German statesman is strong enough to pre-
vent it OF frivolous enough 10 try. In referring
to Northern Schleswig, she said that he did not
belle We that domination exercised over nations
wboi wished to separate was useful in general,
but sometimes it was Indispensable. Example:
Poland. The difficulty in Schleswg was the
mixed character of the population.

An Express Messenger GRrrOted In Ills
Car on the Onto and Mississippi Rail-
road, and the Safe Robbed.
,OuiSpilte Denyc crdt.

From the Louisville Democrat.
Another daring robbery, similar to one perDe-
trated few months ago, was committed on the
Ohio and Mississippi railroad, at a quarter past
8 O'Clock on Saturday night. The particulars,
as furnished us by parties who came in on the
JefIersonville Railroad at an early hour yester-
day morning, are as follows
As the tram going east on the Ohio and Missi-
sippi Road was leaving the station at Seymour,
at the time above mentioned, four men boarded
the express car unObserved. 1t is supposed toat
they got on at the end of the car, and walked
mound the running-board to the door, which
they entered. They at once attacked and gar
roted the express messenger, Mr.. Dunbar, after
which they secured the keys of the safe, and
robbed it of its contents, amounting to large
sum.
The total loss, however, was not ascertamed
by our inloImants. The robbers got off at a
point about three miles from Seymour, where
the train nearly comes to a stop, owing to the
heavy grade. brakeman who got LETT at this
point saw the men get of, and in doing so one
of the parties fell and injured himself so badly
that he had to be carried by his accomplces 10
the woods. There is a strong clue to the
authors of this bold robbery, which it is believed
will lead to their capture. We are glad to learn
that the express messenger, Mr.. Dunbar, was
not materially injured.

Mercy to Animals.

Some interesting experiments have been made
lately at the slaughter-hOuses OF Vincennes as
~ he most mercilul manner of killing animals
Uith ihe least possible suffering. At present
oven are slaughtered by blows from heavy ham
Tners ON the head, which necessarily lnfict the
most fightful torture ou the unfortunate vic
tins of our carnyorous propensities. The idea
occurred TO an eminent psychologist that the
section of the spine would produce more instant
death. This, however, has not been demon
strated. An OK thus killed lived for twelve
minutes. aud endured during that time the
most horrible suderngs. Decapitation was then
tried. with the following curious result:-"A calf
was then hung up, and deoapitated In the space
of n quarter of minute. It's head was then
nIaced on a table. In six minutes two ounces
pPmd half of blood was lost. During the first
minnte ihe face was irighttuliy c1nvulsed, the
mouth opened and shut as though the animal
,Iere eating; and, strange to say, on putting the
InoIJ ogalnst the mouth and nostril IL was easy
20 feel the respiration continuing" Thirty ami
maIs were thus killed, and the result OF the oh,
aorvations taken was thatthe committee decided
tbat the old practice Ot killing by means OF
bIows from hammer should be continued.

dent.
Two weeks ago few, if any, bets were offered
by the supporters of Governor Thurman on the
likelihood of his being even successful in re.
duclng the Republican majority by more than
few thousand votes, but tonight the Democratic
betting Is very viyacous at the prospect of cur
failing the Republican gains in former elections
for Governor by the immense reduction OF
twenty thousand votes, and of eecting the
Legislature, defeating the Negro Suffrage amend
ment, and carrying the county of Franklin by
a majority of twenty-eight hundred. Appear
auCcs are in favor OF this result for the canvass
has been one OF the most vigorous kind on the
side OF the Democracy, and the lssueslln pOlut
OF popularity have been decidedly against the
radicals.
In Montgomery county, of which Dayton is
the seat, the campaign on both sides has been
very active. In 1865 the Republicans carried
the county by only fifty votes. Ho.mOrro4 the
Democrats look for a majority Of nearly two
hundred. 1t was feared here this morning that
a disturbance was likely to occur at the polls,
and from the belligerent aniecedents of the
county, such a result is not unlikely to happen.
A rumor received currency here this afternoon
that the negroes, claiming preponderauce OF
white blood and thus entitled to vote, are arm
ing, with the intention of asserting their right
to the franchise. 1t is difficult to say whether
such rumors are circulated from fear or for
effect. One fact is however noticeable that
to-day many negroes of the mulatto type might
be observed in consultation here and there on
the principal streets.
At about o'clock this evening Democratic
mass meeting, one of the last in the campaign,
was held in front of the State House, and ad-
dressed by Judge Thurman. Several deega-
tions, headed by bands of music, made their
appearance, and a plentiful display of rockets
illuminated the Capitol grounds. The Judges
speech related to those topics of finance, negro
suffrage, and reconstruction upon which all the
Dcmocr atle speakers have previously delivered
themselves. After travelling over the State and
taking an impartial view of the situation, the
Judge believes the prospects of the Democracy
excellent and the harmony prevailing among
them not equa led in thirty five years. Colonel
Baber followed 10 brie speech covering Dor

addresses from other speakers the assemblage,
