10 disavow all hostile intentions toward Prus-
sia, had the Emperor not felt assured that
Prussia is backed by the entire German peo-
pie, in every national question and that
French diplomacy in South Germany has pro-
-duced results the opposite from what had'been
anticipated ~
Another false rumor connected with the
Salzburg Conference is the demand Of Austria
to enter the South German Confederacy. II
the battle of Sadowa decided anything, it was
that henceforth Austria shall have no influence
in Germany. Austria has indeed been offered
an alliance with Germany, North and South
But Prussia cannot permit her to intrigue
with the South German States-the "seVen
days war" has been too recent, and the result
too decisive, to seriously reopen such question
already. Nor do the South German States
desire such union. If there is much preJu-
dice, particularly in Bavaria, against Prussia
this feeling is still greater aud more widely
prevalent against Austria Such union is
therefore out of the question. An alliance OF
Austria with Germany is only practicable at-
ter the latter shall have effected her union
upon solid and permanent basis. But the1
such union will be highly desirable and I'M
necessary for both, and sooner or later mus
be formed; and just as it will be to the inter
est of Germany to protect the integrity OF Aa'
tria, and counteract Russian aggression 81
must it be the duty of Austria to insist on th'
integrity of Germany, and to protect her iron
all assaults on the part of France.

HON. JOHN MCQUEEN.

On the S0lh ult., at his residence in Society
Hill, S. c., died of apoplcxy General JoHS
MCQUEEN, in the 63d year of his age. lie
was born in Robson county, North Carolina,
of an old Scotch Presbyterian family. The
deceased in his youth enjoyed but slender
facilities for education; but he made tho most
of them, and in after life, by his own unaided
efforts, succeeded in rearing stately super
structure of refined culture, and gentlemanly
character, upon the humble foundation laid in
the Robson county old field school house. He
was born in the cottage, humbly reared, but
in course of time it was given to him to "s stand
before princes"
In early manhood General MCQUEEN re-
moved to Marlboro District, South Carolina,
where he soon attained an enviable reputa-
ton in the practice of his profession as law
yer, and then, as always afterward was q
great favorite in society. Here he married
Miss RoGEns, who, however, died in giving
birth to her born; the late Captain s. +.
MCQUEEN, remarkably brilliant and loveable
young man, suddenly cut off by disease w.
years ago). About twenty years afterward he
was again married, to Miss PIcKENs of Green's
boro, Alabama, who with several young chill
dren survives him.
General MCQUEEN was good lawyer, a fine
speaker, and man of remarkably popular
manners; q most excellent stump speaker,
therefore No wonder, then, that he was early
honored with the confidence of his fellow-cti'
zens, whom he long represented in the Legis,
lature Some sixteen or eighteen years ago, he
was elected to q seat in the United States
House of Representatives, and continued in
this capacity up TO the war After the State
had seeded, he was sent as Commissioner tC
Florida. At the first election for the Con
fedcrate Congress, General MCQUEEN was
again elected, and served for two years, since
which time, Q864) he has held no public
office.
For many years General MCQUEEN was
known in the Pee Dee country as large and
successful planter. Until within the past few
years, when he removed to Society Hill, he
resided at Mineral Springs eight miles south
east of Bennettsville, where in the intervals Of
rest from his public duties he dispensed the
duties of hospitality to large circle of friends
and visitors.
In politics General MCQUEEN, throughout
life, was consistent States Rights man, of the
CALHOUN school. His record is before the
country, and his friends and kindred ,have nc
reason to be ashamed of it.
