A cnunIER RlAsI.

Heretofore the strong-minded suffrage
females have had it all their own way.
The first bugle note of an Amazonian
war has, however, been sounded, and
from this time forth We may look for a
lively opposition to the Battle Mountain
tDe) Forces by those women who find
full measure Of duties. cares and re-
sponsibilities in the family nursery.
The following petition is the proclama-
ton of war issued by the latter:
The petition of the undersigned to the
Congress of the United States, pro-
testing against an extension Of suffrage
to women
We, the undersigned, do hereby ap-
peal to your honorable body, and desire
respectfully to enter our protest against
an extension Of suffrage to women; and
in the firm belief that our petition rep
resents the sober convictions of the ma
jority Of the women Of the Country.
Although we shrink from the notoriety
Of the public eye, yet we are too deeply
and painfully impressed by the grave
perils which threaten our peace and hap
piness, in these proposed changes in our
civil and political rights longer TO re-
main silent.
Because, Holy Scripture inculcates a
different, and for us, higher sphere apart
from public life.
Because, as women, we find full mea-
sure of duties, cares and responsibilities
devolying upon us, and we are, there
lltpfr N haar ~ bar nj hoo r,a,.
burdens, and those unsuited to our ply
sical organization.
Because, we hold that an extension Of
suffrage would be adverse to the interests
Of the working women of the Country,
with whom we heartily sympathise.
Because, these changes must introduce
fruitful element of discord in the exist
ing marriage relation, which would tend
TO the infinite detriment of children, and
increase the already alarming prevalence
Of divorce throughout the land.
Because no general law affecting the
condition of all women, should be
framed to meet exceptional discomfort.
For these, and many more reasons, do
we beg of yonr wisdom that no law ex-
tending suffrage to women may be
passed. as the passage of such law
would be fraught with danger so grave
to the general order Of the Country.
Having given the petition. il is per-
haps as well to give the names of the
ladies to whom the petitions may be re-
turned with signatures. They are as
follows:
Mrs. Gen. W. T. Sherman, Mrs. John
A. Dahlgren, Mrs jacob ID. Cox, Mrs.

pledges himself to act in accordance with

The London morning papers to-day
publish in large type an account Of an
interview with Napoleon. 1t says that
a fortnight ago the Emperor had not
thought of war; but France was slipping
from his hands, and he must lead the
people into foreign war. The Emperor
claimed that Bismarck wanted too much.
The Emperor demanded Luxembourg as
an equivalent for his neutrality in the
affair with Austria. Bismarck demanded
Holland as an equivalent for Luxem-
bourg. The Emperor replied that if
Prussia attacked the Independence of
Holland, it would mean war with France.
Count Benedette was present at the in
terview when these facts were ELECTED.
The following dispatch is just received
from Saar-B -Bruck, via Berlin: On Sun
day body OF Prussians crossed the from
tier and encountered the French in con-
siderable force near Gersweiller A
sharp skirmish ensued, and the French
retired. leaving 10 killed and wounded.
The Prussians suffered no loss. The ex-
ecution of the needle gun was superior
to that of the Chassepot A company of
Prussians captured the French Custom
house at Schrichlnger. The officers of
the Customhouse made a stout resist
ance, and all we're either killed or cap
tured. One Prussian officer was slightly
wounded. Desertions from the French
army are very numerous, men continu-
ally coming into the Prussian lines.

RADICAL papers cannot agree upon the
tariff question. On the one hand, the
New York IniJ,u,c, the Boston .id"cr-
tiScr and the Boston JoGnok contend
desperately that the tariff must be kept
up to its present high standard, and that
ruin and devastation would follow,
should the low tariff men obtain power
On the other hand, the leading organs
OF the West, like the Chicago Iribmc
and the Missouri Dapocrat, are adyo-
Gates of revenue reform, and proclaim
that the Republican party will meet
with inevitable defeat in the Western
States unless it pledges itself to a re-
duction of the tariff The Republicans
of OHIO have already resolved that they
are in favor OF such reduction and from
the tenor OF public sentiment in other
States there can be no doubt that other
conventions will lie compelled to follow
suit. The truth is the Radical, are
using the tariff question a. a political
foot ball, aud will kick IT in any dircc-
ton to make their selfish game. This
fact is beginning to arrest the attention

invented Outrage.

The rascalities OF Governor HOLDEN,
of North Carolina, and his confederates
who fill the atmosphere with lies, in
his interest, are too much for the New
York Tribune 1t thus demands an
explanation of a piece Of roguery prac-
tised on it:
We have a word for Governor Hol-
den and Senator Abbott. Just before
the North Carolina election, we printed
letter from Judge Tourgee, concern
ing the Ku-Klux outrages in that State.
Certain very startling statements were
made in it, which, but for the respect
able signature, would have been uni
versally secuted. Judge Tourgee
promptly wrote us, complaining that
the figures he had given, in enumerat-
ing cases OF outrage, had been increas-
ed ten-fold by the addition OF a cipher
to each, converting ten into hundred,
etc. Now, We printed the letter pre-
cisely as Governor Holden in person,
delivered it to our correspondent, and
as the correspondent understood that
Governor Holden had received 1t from
Senator Abbott, to whom it was adj
dressed. We submit TO these gentle
men that they have allowed too long a
time to elapse without explaining to us
how the disgracelul garbling occurred.
We should have. expected them to be
as indignant as we were ourselves at
the fraud practised upon us, and to he
prompt in exposing the torger who
abused their trust Tin copying the letter.
by putting into Judge Tourgees mouth
monstrous assertions which he never
dreamed of uttering. Governor Holden

Editors OF the Register:
Yesterday political discussion was
held in the court house at this place,
between General Harris, Governor Ste
venson's Adjutant General and Politi-
cal Agent, and our well known fellow
citizen Col. Ben Wilson Harris sought
TO poison the minds of the people here
with his negro equality doctrine and
avoid a reply, but the majority OF the
people present being Democrats, Col.
Wilson was called for at the conclusion
of Harris speech and responded in his
usual happy style. Mr.. Wilson venti-
/ lated the fiimsy argument Of the muir
derer OF Mrs Surrat TO the entire
satisfaction oil all present, show,
ing conclusively that he is now
travelling over the country at the
expense OF the people and in
! the interest of Governor Stevenson to
perpetuate libelous doctrines. Harris
frequently interrupted Colonel Wilson,
at one time denying that there are any
Union soldiers in this State disiran-
chised by the registration law. AT
length, in reviewing Harris record Mr..
Wilson came TO the Surratt case. Har'
ris could stand it no longer, but beat an
ignominious retreat, leaving the field TO
the Colonel.
Mr.. Wilson speech. was one Of the
finest exposes OF Radical corruption
and rottcnness we ever heard. lie
turned the tables completely on Harris
and his Radical friends, and we fee

A FRESCHNAN writing from Nc

to battle, but like animals led to the
shambles. We have been tricked by
the Prussians like children, and our
staff, believing all the ruses of the
enemy, has allowed itself to be duped
