The Situation in Europe.

The continuance of peace in Europe, in
spite ofall recent changes, depends more
upon France than any other European Pow
cr Russia, Austria, Persia, are all so much
bent on carrying out domestic reforms that
nothing but the direst necessity will allow
them to think of war. The amicable and
satisfactory settlement of the Franco Belgian
difficulty has removed the only cause of war
which was really alarming The present re-
form movement in France has assumed that
particular character which, to say the least,
renders foreign war extremely improbable
The game which Napoleon now has in hand
is much more important than the humbling
of Prussia or the acquisition of few square
miles of territory. 1t is fact not without
deep significance that, simultaneously with
the Inauguration of sweeping and radical re-
form, Napoleon has taken steps to reduce the
effective strength of the army. We have
little doubt that the example of France will
be generally initiated. The huge ornaments
of Europe are curse not only to the differ
ent nations, but to the world. France has
an available force of million of men. Rus
aia, Prussia and Austria can each count on
almost as many. Italy is depressing herself
AMI. running her chances by maintaining u
large standing army. 1t is the same all over.
War with such forces would be dreadful
Bat why should war be necessary 1t is the
dynasties, not the peoples, that are interested
in the maintenance of the present condition
of things. A grand European federal repub-
lie is the only cure for all this waste and con-
sequent misery. 1t is the standing armies of
Europe that are forcing upon the United
States population and wealth. Why should
we complain ?-HeraM.

A New Fact About the Lincoln Assassination
Statement Of Payne.

e.
The Washington correspondent of the
Chicago Tribune communicates the follow
ing: Some time ago friend introduced me
TO Frederick Stone, of Port Tobacco Qndian,
Potopaca, on the Lower Potomac, who was
counsel to DIR. Mudd, the surgeon of John
Wilkes Booth. Stone is now member of
Congress from the Fifth District of Mary
land, and is q modest, semi-literary lawyer
He went in his professional capacity to see
Payne or Powell, the attempted assassin of
VIM. Ii. Seward, and returned to my intro
ducer with this statement:
THAT fellow is the most extraordinary and
irredeemable rufiian in Christendom. He
S built like gigantic savage, has no idea of
fear, possesses no sensiblities, and wants to
die with promptitude. He said to me: L
don't want trial. | deserve to be hanged
and expect it. don't want to be led out to
court every day, with chains on my legs
amid daily hurrah. meant TO kill that old
Seward, and how failed can't imagine; l
believe was right in trying to kill him;
first | went at him with my knife and then
with my pistol butt If had possessed any
thing else l should have finished him."
Stone asked him the extent and nature of
the conspiracy
1T was q plan to carry off Lincoln and
give him up to the Confederatcs," said Payne,
but when that failed Booth, who was the
only one in earnest proposed to kill Lincoln
and all the Cabinet All the rest backed out
and scattered like n lot. of beggars. We new
or heard of Surratt, or Arnold, or any of them
again. told Booth would go in with him,
and he preferred to kill Lincoln, while was
set upon Seward. 1t Atzerodt or Harold
were in the matter, they were mere hangers
on. | deserve to be killed, and SO does
Booth The rest were women and babes"
Amongst the peculiarities of that time of
assassination may be mentioned the fact that
poet who recently figured in some of the
floral decoration ceremonies of this vicinity,
had been invited by Wilkes Booth to come
to his room on the night of the murder
While on his way he heard of the assassinu-
ton at Ford's Theatre, and to his consterna-
ton, he heard the name of his anticipated
host mentioned in connection with the
crime
81 dare say" he said frequently afterwards,
"that if had left my card at Booths room
that night, should have been sent to the
Dry Tortugas"
Stone is grandson of a signer of the De-
claration of Independence from Maryland,
and great grandson of Lord Baltimores
famous Protestant Virginian Governor ofthe
same Commonwealth.

PARsoN BRowNLow ON THE SITUATION
IN TENNEssEE.-Parson Brownlow, sup
posed to be the most implacablc of Southern
radicals, has become liberal, in favor of the
removal OF rebel disabilities. In scorching
letter against the radical Stokes party he saws
that "the Sentcr men liberal republicans)

that president Grant will be entirely salts.

And yet the support of 3enter by Andrew
johnson has apparently given Stokes the in.

The RECORD OF A dying PARTY."-In
1856, when Buchanan was elected President,
the Democratic vote was 1,603,O29. In 1860,
the combined vote of Duglas and Brecken-
ridge was 2,2l3,927. In 1864, the vote for
Mcclellan, without the vote of any of the
Southern States, was 1911 ,754 In 1868, the
vote for Seymour was 2,705,831, almost a
million larger than the vote for Buchanan
in 1856, and 4S3,596 more than the vote
for Lincoln in 1864 This win do very well
for dead party. The people are gradually
coming back to their first love and the sup
port OF the old Democratic faith--the Union
of the States and the rights of the States; a
Union Of equal States upon the basis Of the
Constitution.-Detr Free Press

CURIOUS FREAK OF LIGHTNING.-Th
house belonging to Walter Burlingame, i'll
Putnam, on the street east of the railroad,
was struck by lightning on Friday NOR
ming. Mrs. Skinner, daughter of Mrs.
Burlingame, was somewhat injured by the
shock. She was closing window at the
west end of the house, when by sudden
shock upon the right side of the head, she
was thrown across the room, her right side
being completely paralyzed for time.
The shaft passed entirely through the
house, ripping up the floor and splintering
the timbers, striking up the roof of the pi-
azza OF the L., splintering the roofing and
glanclng downward. A portion of the
fluid passed down the west pillar to a nail
to which was attached wire clothes line.
Taking the direction of the wire it ran to
the L., striking large and powerful post,
which 1t tore to shreds, passed down and
bored a hole two feet deep into the ground.
On the west end fthe house shaft passed
down from the upper to the lower window,
where it ripped out the curtain fixings,
stove hole in the wall and disappeared
no one could tell where. A shaft thrown
; off in the centre of the house played pranks
with the carpet rods on the stairs and end
ed upon the bell wire. The house looked
as though it was well filed with electrici-
ty, and it is hard to tell where it first. en-
tered; yet we think from appearances il
was upon the piazza loof directly over the
pillar where the large clothes wire was at
tached, the shaft dividing here to the West
and East, following the composition used
in the rooting.-Noraoich Gonna Bulletin,
