Congress and Tennessee.

The Washington correspondent
of the Baltimore San writes as
follows:
GAS soon as the Virginia bill is
disposed of, it is understood that
an attempt will be made to have
the Reconstruction Committee
take up the question of the pro-
posed interference by Congress
with the State of Tennessee. In
this way the new issue will b
squarsIy laised whether the Re-
publican party in Congress will
take another step in advance OF
its present policy, and attempt to
regulate the internal affairs of a
State fully represented in both
Houses OF Congress. Tennesseeans
opposed to such interference say
that it meets with NJ favor from
the President. The vote on Mr..
brakes amendment in the Senate
to-day, would seem to indicate
that at present that body does not
claim the right to dictate the in
ternal policy of a State when
once represented in Congress"
The amendment of Mr. Drake,
referred to above, was to this eff
feet: "1hat should the Legislature
of said State at any time hereaf
ter rescind its ratification of the
18th amendment, said State shall
be Immediately deprived of its
representation in Congress" The
vote on the amendment was de-
feated by the decisive vote of As
to IL. Tennessee has been rep
resented in Congress for the past
tour years, and it would certainly
be a bold and an unjustifia-
bic stroke of policy to remand her
to territorial capacity. The
Washington correspondent. Of the
Charleston Neac6 says:
"The President has informed
Senators in conversation, that be
is opposed to the proposed inter-
ference in Tennessee"

Greenbrter Presby terry.
JulY 2

LEwIsBURG, July 26, 1870.
Greenbrier Presbytery met at Frankfort
july ed ut II O'Clock, and was opened with
a sermon by the Moderator, Rev. James
Haynes.
The chief business of the meeting was
the reception and examination of candi-
dates for the ministry.
Messrs. w. It. Mann and A. Fl. Hamilton,
of Mount Pleasant church, were taken I'M
der care of Presbytery, the latter Of whom
has finished his course at college, and Is
ready to enter the Theological Seminary.
Presbytery examined on most of bis
parts Of trial Mr.. Jacob Lewis, Of Muddy
Creek, who has not entirely finished his
course, but will probably take license at the
next regular meeting in September.
Mr.. David Sydenstriker, from Union
Seminary, was examined on all parts of
gospel of Christ.
Presbytery was not only gratified at the
satisfactory manner in which the eXamina-
lions were passed, and the promise of use
fulness in those just about to enter on this
great work, but was also encouraged by the
addition to the number of candidates under
its care. 1t entertains better hopes of being
able to occupy in some measure the extern
ded territory which is opened to it, and to
give some response to the earnest entreaties
for help, which como up ut every meeting
from its destitute fields. Let the churches
pray the Lord of the harvest to send forth
laborers; and let each examine its own re-
cord and see how many it has nllrsed in its
bosom till strong enough to be sent forth as
reapers. III. l.. l..

Republicanism or Monarchy Z?

An enthusiastic German at public meet
Ing in New York the other night uttered
the feryent hope that King WILLIAh might
drive out LOUIS NAPOLEON, that WILLIAM
himself would be driven out of Germany by
her people, and that then Germany would
become united republic. The orator did
not pray for a similar fate for France, but
leaves her in possession Of WILLIAM of Prus-
sial When will this republican dream
cease to vex crazy people9 1t bamboozles
the minds of men In this country, and how
much Of republicanism have we?
Ii European nations can do no better than
America, they had better put an embargo
on repub.icanism. Assuredly, however,
the people Of Europe want no such thing.
They prefer monarchy; and from the de-
vilish manifestations of the Republican
theories at different periods of modern
times, they may well dread their rule Us
the most horrible of all kinds of govern
ment yet devised.

NEW BANKs.-Appications continue to
be made to the Comptroller of the Currency
for authority to establish new banks in the
South and West. This part Of the South
has but avery limited share Of the national
currency, and we hope that capitalists will
avail themselves Of the opportunity to make
up the deficit. We hear of no applications
from this quarter. Most of those that have
been made are from the West. A Washing
ton letter says that probably from four hun
dred to five hundred new banks will go into
operation before long. 1t is added that the
Comptroller will draw upon the East for the
twenty-five millions of excess located there
until the fifty.five millions provided for the
South and West shall be taken by them.

goods in neutral vessels not contraband of
war. But should the beligerents make the
list of contraband goods as sweeping as that
of the Federal Government in the late civil
strife, there will be precious little left to
pass. Even quinine was declared contra

whatever went to feed, clothe anybody, or
restore the sick to health, it was deemed

The London Times, in endeavoring to 40.
count for the sympathy shown in ireland
for the French, says it must be attributed to
Catholicism. Some of our Eastern and
Western papers set it down to the same
cause. We do not agree with our contem-
poraries, for one or two reasons. In the
first place, the nominee of Prussia for the
Spanish throne is himself a Catholsc-so
that really Catholic sympathy is running
against Catholic king. And in the next,
the people in Ireland who attend mass
meetings are by no means pleased with the
Pope at the present time, for the reason
that he has condemned Fenianism. Again,
if we may believe the cable, Napoleon in
tends to withdraw the French troops from
Rome-a step by no means calculated to en-
dear him to Catholics. The true reason
of Irish sympathy for France is hatred of
England, and the expectation that an Irish
republic may be born in the event Of o war
