Ey We should like to please an " Eye
Witness by publishing his account of the
alteration between Boudinot and Nc
Donald, with all ist surroundings, but
we had prepared short account of
the affair and must decline to publish.
In disturbance of that kind there is al
ways more or less said by parties, that
had not better been said--and which in
cooler moments would not have been ut
tered and by none more regretted than
the one making them; the publication of
which would do no good and only add
fuel to keep alive hostile feelings that
should be banished from every mind.
Our friend will, we think, on mature re
Election, think as we do on this point.

@ Mr.. CHAs. BABcocK, the Travel.
ing Agent of the Southwest Branch of
the Pacific Railroad Company, called ON
us Saturday. From him we learn of the
progress of this road to our border, and
that during the month of June, it would
be finished to Pierce City, some 81 miles
this side of Springfield, Mo. BY the Ist
OF July, passenger trains will be running
from ST. Louis to Pierce City. This is
by tar the quickest, and much the cheap
est route to the East, and certainly dur
ing the low water in the Arkansas is the
easiest and most comfortable to travel.
As soon as the cars reach Pierce City,
thi ough tickets, will be sold in Van Blu
rem to st. Louis, and points on the line
Attention is called to the advertisement
of this Company in our paper; and if
passengers will consult ease and comfort
in travelling, they will take this route.
We would say word in commentator
of the Stage Line that connects us with
this Railroad, but in looking over our
advertising columns, we fail to notice
their card, consequently, conclude ref
erence is not desired

Ono PoLITlcs. The Democratic State
Convention in Ohio is to be held ut Co
lumbus on the first of June. The officers
to be nominated are Secretary of State,
Judge Of the Supreme Coult, Comptroller
Of the Treasury, Commissioner of Com
mon Schools, and member OF the Board
of Public Work. In addition to the
State ticket, nineteen Congressman arc to
be elected. With regard to the prospects
of success, the Cincinnati Enquirer says f:
ave came within seven thousand five
hundred votes of electing Mr.. Pendleton
Governor-that is, such was the declared
result. But it has always been our opin-
ion that he was elected, and cheated out
of it by fraudulent returns, made in wards
and townships where there were no Dem
ocratc judges, after the polls closed, We
have now law which will give us n
Democratic for judge in every election
precinct, and this we consider equal to
ten thousand votes for the organization.
The people are getting sick of republican
rule, and, with a vigorous and polite
canvass, our chances of carrying the
State may be considered good. "

"CoFFEE AND PISTOLS. "A rencounter
between Maj. f. c. BoUDINoT and Super
visor MCDONALD occurred in our city on
Tuesday evening last This difficulty las
we learn, had its origin in this Some
question arose in the Court room, in the
presence of the Court, respecting the
status of Maj. Boudinots property, where
in Mr.. Mcdonald told Boudinot he lied
And Judge Caldwell threatened to send
both disputants to Jail if they continued
the controversy in his presence. Major
Boudinot, it seems, afterwards met the
Supervisor, in front Of Brodies Hotel,
and without word Of explanation slap
ped him soundly in the face with his open
hand The friends Of both parties inter
fered and the peace officers took charge
of the combatants-and at last accounts
all was quiet on the Arkansaw. 1t was
thought at the time that Mcdonald
would not let such an insult pass, but
challenge Boudinot to deadly combat;
but the Supervisor went to Fort Smith
the same, night and we suppose conclud-
ed to let the matter rest where 1t was.

General Election,

The next general election will be held
in this State, on the Tuesday succeeding
the first Monday in November, 1S70-or
on the Sth of November next. ;.
At this election are to be chosen there
congressman, from the several districts F;
Representatives to the State Legislature
from all the districts Senators in the
Legislature from the lst, Sd, 9th, 9TH, 9th,
1lth, 18th, 18th, 18th, 10Th and 21st dis
tricts. 1t would seem, too, from hasty
glance at the Statutes and Constitution
that sheriff is to be elected in each
county. Sheriffs are not mentioned in
the existing Constitution, but derive their
authority from laws which were passed
prior to its adoption and which are not
inconsistent with its provisions. BY the
old law the sherifis' official term is fixed
at two years duration, and the Lcgisla-
ture we believe has not heightened it; we
have been unable to discover the change
in that respect, in time to state it posi-
lively at this writing.

PHILADELPHIA, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER Z, 1870

order OF things was swept away as II II had never
existed, and the proud nobility had either pershed
under the axe OF the guillone or been driven into
exile. The first French Republic wore itself out
with its own fury, and it practically ended when Ma
poeon Bonaparte the successful general OF the
armies, which had defeated the combined forces OF
Europe, became First Consul and grasped the reins
of power.
Then followed the empire, the fall of Napoleon,
the restoration of the Bourbons, and thsir second
downfall, when Charles X was forced to ny; the
accession of Louis Philippe and his downfan
in 1s4s. The revolution OF February gath, 1885,
precpitated by the agitation in favor of parliament
tary reform, and the weakness and timidlty OF the
King in abandoning his throne probably gave very
different turn to events than if he had remained at
his post and resolutely the issues OF the hour
1t was thought that this time the republic would
have fair chance for success and large portion
OF the nation were prepared 20 give IL cordial sup
port A republican constitution was adopted, aud
on December 10th, 1S4S Louis Napoleon Bonaparte,
who saw that his opportunity had now arrived,
and had landed in France so soon as the
revolution was eonsumated, elected President OF
the French republic by 565s,I55 votes against
100000 which were cast for Cavagnac. Dissen-
sions arose between the majority Of the Legs-
latve Assembly and the President, ana there were
signs Of trouble as the periOd for new Presidential
election approached. Louis Napoleon, who sklfully
fOstered the popular dissatisfaction against the
1851, and assumed dictatorial powers. He
appealed to the people to sanction his
action, and with the aid of the army,
which he had secured his interests he chosen
President for ten years by nearly eight million
votes. A new constitution was formed, and on No
vember Z, 1852, motion was made in the Senate for
the re -estabment OF the empire. This was acceded
to by the people of France by vote OF 7,sA129, and
the second French republic ceased to exist,
The second empire has now perished like the first,
and the nephew like the uncle, is fugitive from
the people he had betrayed, and prisoner in the
hands Of hs enemies. The French republic has
been proclaimed for the third time, in the midst of
a great public calamity. A large portion OF the
fairest part of France is overrun by the
Germans, who are advancing rapidly
upon Paris after series OF vic
tories unparalleled in the annals of warfare, and
the future Of the new republic is shrouded in i'm
penetrable clouds. That France will be enabled to
emerge from her present trials purified by her mis-
fortunes, and that the new republic will be esta-
blished upon more permanent basis than its pre-
decessors is the sincere wish OF every lover Of
liberty.
