Attention. Germnns,

The time has come after long protract-
cd troubles, veXatiOEs and sufferings,
when the Union of Germany is TO be an
accomplished fact The war about to be
begun between the two great powers of
the old world must needs end in a con-
solidation of all the German States, South
and North, EEast and West, into one
mighty, one free country. The petty
jealousies of the past are fading away
under theinsults offered by the foe heredi-
tary of Germany and free institutions.
Our brothers all, across the waters in the
old Fatherland, rally for the protection
of the old beloved River Rhine. Once
united, the Germans cannot again be
divided. The fruit is ripe. The very
next few days will bring US important
news. 1t behooves those Germans who
have found new home on this side of
the ocean to express their sympathies for
the brothers over yonder in their last
struggle for Union and Liberty. 1t is
suggested that the Germans of Nashville
and all other citizens who sympathize
with the armies bearing the German
flags, assemble in mass meeting, this
evening, at o'clock, at the City Hall,
lower end of the Markethouse, to give
appropriate expression to their views
and sentiments. 'sARMINIUs.n

DESPERATE ENCOUNTER.
One Negro Probably Killed by An
re44 other e@

One Negro Probably Killed by Aa-
f' other. a@
Quite a stir was created among the fif-
teenth amendments in the western part of
the city near 2ro'clock yesterday, growing
out of desperate rencountre between two
men of that section. 1t appears. that the
relationships of one Stephen Shields and
Calvin Sheppard, both negroes, owing to
some sort of domestic grievances, have of
late been by no means of an amiable char
acter Shields is rather and old man; Cal
vim is more stalwart African and much
younger in years. The two met in the
locality indicated and angry words en-
sued. After various and sundry harsh
names and epithets had passed between
the two, Sheppard seized an iron drill
with which he dealt Shields a tremendous
blow across the head. Shields was at once
felled TO the ground helpless and bleeding
from the blow, which fractured the skull,
producing in all probability mortal
wound. Sheppard was promptly arrested and
taken to the lookup and will have hear
ing to-day. Shields was still alive yester-
day evening, but suffering intensely from
the effects of his wound, and his recovery
was considered problematical.

A few days since we made brief mention
of the fact that MIR. NJ. Burns had been
elected President of the First National
Bank of this city. His selection to that
office deserves more than a passing notice,
and is an event in the banking history of
Nashville. We know of no man combin-
ing to so eminent degree all the qualii-
cations for the position. He is q gentleman
of unsurpassed financial skill, of deepprac-
teal knowledge, of enlarged experience,
mature and sound judgment, far-seeing
sagacity, and unfagging energy, and is
withal man Of sterling worth and incor-
ruptible integrity. He brings with him to
the institution all of these characteristics,
with the might of his personal popularity,
and commanding influence in financial
circles. The selection Of no financial Off
Ger las ever given such wide spread and
universal satisfaction. He enjoys the es-
TEEN and confidence of the entire business
community, and it is gratifying to note the
fact, that the business of the First National,
one of the soundest moneyed institutions
in the country, has increased to an appre-
ciable extent since his election. The Bank
and the public may well felicitate them
selves on the accession of Mr.. Burns to the
position.

AN EXPERT THIEF CAPTURED.
Over $500 in Money and Other VAL
uabIes Recovered.

over S2OU IN money ana UinCr al
uabIes Recovered.
The notorious negro man, John VIII
son, alias John Anderson, is an old hand
at the business, and an adroit thief. He
has not been a great while out Of the
PenitentiaTy, having served term in that
institution for former offenses. About
the first use John made of his freedom
was to return to his old tricks, and he has
been stealing and robbing indiscriminateIy
for some time past. -Four or five weeks
since he stole from Mr.. Samuel Manning
and family q fine gold watch and some
silk dresses. Other articles have been
stolen from divers and sundry parties. A
silk dress or two was stolen from the
widow Williams by the same party.
Yesterday John was brought to grief
and will most likely find lodgings again
at his old quarters in the State prison.
Sometime during Sunday night he enter
ed the sleeping room of Mr.. D. W. Pea
body, Revenue Collector while he was
asleep. The entrance was made through
window which Mr.. Peabody had hoisted in
consequence Of the excessive heat. The
thief appropriated the entire suit of clothes
Mr.. Peabody had worn the day before and
made off without being detected. On awak-
ening yesterday morning Mr.. Peabody found
that his clothes were gone, and worse than
that, near $3.50 in money, which was IN the
pocket was gone with them. The thief
thought himself decidedly in luck,
He left no sign except some tracks under
the window. Mr.. Peabody notified the
police and the detectives Of his loss, and
they we're at once on the alert. The negro.
after secreting the clothes in Sladetown,
commenced spending the money, investing
in clothing, boots, ETC., quite freely. This
led to his detection by the officers who
were in search, He was arrested and ex-
amined. Some of the articles were iden-
tilted and over 5000 of the stolen money
was recovered. Great credit is due detect
i've Watson, through whose agency we learn
the arrest was made. The negro was
lodged in jail and will have hearing be-
fore Justice Brien to-day.
A number of articles were found and
identified which he had stolen and secreted
that belonged to other parties. The arrest
is quite an important one and we presume
that it will be long before the offender will
again have the opportunity of preying upon
the community.
