United STATES.

NEW York, September 1.-THE Her
AIDS special, dated London, 18th, says
dispatches just received there from
Marieneburg state that at Calais the
railroad and telegraph lines to Paris are
cut, and all further communication with
the besieged city is severed. Passengers
proceeding to the frontier are compelled
to take lines that 90 through the cities
on the north of France. The people
Of France are downcast in consequence
of the absence of all organization in
both the military and civic departments.
There is an entire lack of public conf
dence in the heads Of departments. The
universal sentiment is that Of helpless
ness and yearniug for a constitutional
head who shall bring order out Of this
terrific chaos. In the provinces gener-
ally there is a prevailing impression
that if leader like the First Napoleon
could be found, the political and social
condition Of France could be retrieved.
Prominent amidst all this discussion is
strong and universal desire for peace.
1t is now known that Bismarck will not
consent to the signing Of any treaties
for peace, unless those treaties have the
sympathy and confidence of the French
people.
The feeling in Belgium is strongly in
favor Of France, and this is well known
in France One hundred thousand men
could easily be found in Belgium to fight
for France, but no one is sufficiently in
auential and powerful enough to organ
ize or lead them.
The negotiations for peace, carried on
between Theirs and the British govern
ment, have terminated without any re-
suit favorable to peace Earl Granville
has just informed Theirs, in behalf of
the British government, that all confer
ences having for their object terms Of
peaceful settlement between France and
Prussia must be positively declined.
NJ. Theirs expressed his regret at the
unsatisfactory termination Of his mis-
sion, and he remarked to the Foreign
Secretary Of the continued efforts mani
tested in the several interviews when
terms were proposed, to be submitted to
each Of the several belligerents, by which
a satisfactory peace might possibly have
resulted.
Lord Granville remains immovable in
the position he has taken in reference TO
the peace negotiations
Considerable excitement was mani-
Tested at the Prussian embassy TO
day, in consequences Of we'll
founded belief that large number Of
muskets have been sold to France since
the war commenced. This is regarded
by the Prussian ambassador as an Of
Tense Of considerable aggravation BIZ

son to believe that they we're property Of |
the British Government, and the sale e. |
fected BY agents Of the Crown.

A Romantic Incident of the war.

In the blooming, beautiful, balmy NAY
Of 1863, one of those dread battle-siained
years never to be forgotten, General
Tilghman fell, shot dead at the battle Of
Champion Hill, CALAMITY struggling in
defense Of cherished principles. His
noble life ebbed away upon the spot
where he fell, and the sad earth drank
his blood with greedy thirstiness. But
upon that immediate spot grew a peach
tree that reached maturity while its
roots stepped themselves in the martyr !
blood. Singular to relate, the leaves
and fruit Of this tree are blood red
color. The tree was transplanted aad
is now in the orchard Of DR.. J. l..
Hebron, Of this county. TIE propaea-
tons from the same are also Of the same
peculiar color. There is certainly some
thing remarkable about this. We have
seen the leaves, and must confess that
they do look, and even Ito us smell like
blood. The fact can be witnessed By
those who take the trouble TicksbHrg

had retired, strong attachments have
crossed the Rhine and occupied Mulhau-

The Prussians have embarked their
large cannon on steamboats, for a land
ing near Paris. 1t is believed the sunken
torpedoes in the Seine win destroy them.
The Krupp siege guns, en- route to
Paris by the Marine and Rhine canal, have
grounded in the channel. The French
engineers have blown up the locks and
destroyed the sluiees, and emptied the
canal.

THE IRON CLAD.

We cheerfully give place to the follow
ing communication, and commend it and
the article of yesterday, and all the fact'
relating to this important question, tc
the attention and the judgment of the
Democrats in this Congressional District
Our only motive in discussing this mat
ter has been stimulated by an earnest
desire for the welfare and permanent
success of the great national Democratic
party:
MEMPHIS. TENN. September Il. 1870.
To the Editor Of the Ledger:
An article in Yesterdays LEDGER ad-
vocates the nomination of candidate
for Congress who can take the iron-clad
oath, for fear none other will be per-
mitted TO take his seat. As a member
of the nominating Convention; appeal
TO you to exert every possible means to
avert such a wrong to this people. No
man VINO can take the iron-clad oath is
worthy 10 represent the people of Ten
nessee, and if such a man be nominated
he will not receive the hearty support of
the Democracy, and defeat and shame
will be our portion. We are tired Of
trimmers and negative men. We want
man to represent US who had the soul
and patriotism, and courage and love
enough of the South to incur disabili-
ties; a man Of ability, sound judgment
and ripe experience. We have a
v.lo Of
abilities have. been removed, from
whom to select. In the name Of COM
mon sense and consistency, let us send
no man to represent us who can swear
that he never gave aid or comfort or
sympathy to the South in her struggle
for freedom. The bugbear of the iron
clad is raised at the eleventh hour to
Brighten the convention into the nomin-
alton of some negative fence rider, who
had no lot or part with us in our disas-
trous struggle. We want none such.
Give us a true man, whose disabilities
have been removed, and let us test the
question, once for all. whether or not we
are ever to have Representative Of our
own choosing There can be no doubt Of
his eighty. Ii is absurd TO suppose
that Congress would remove a mans
disabilities, and restore him to all his
former rights-among them that
of holding ofice-and then be-
fore permitting him TO exercise
that right, require him to swear that be
never had any disabilities, and the oath
prescribed for those from whom disabili-
ties have been removed a simple oath to
support the Constitution and perform
the duties Of the Office faithfully, proves
it. See to it, that the Democratic party
suffers no harm by the nomination Of a
trimmer. MINOR MkRRIwETHER.

A HUNDRED YEARS Aeo.-The bayonet
policy of the administration is retrogade
movement. 1t was condemned and repudiated
by England six hundred years ago. 1t was
condemned and repudiated hundred years ago
in this country. 1t was repudiated by the peo-
pic of the United States in their revolutionary
struggle. The right of military rule was one
assumed by the adherents of King Geoge and
denied by the men of l776. Grant has gone
back to just where King George and his Tory
defenders stood in 1868. Here is an argument
made by Samuel Adams in that year against
the position of the Tories of that time. 1t is
as clear and conclusive against the bayonet
policy of Grant as though it had been Written
but two weeks ago instead of one hundred and
two years ago:
"No one can pretend to say Chat the peace
and order of the communityis so secure with
soldiers quartered in the body of city as with
out them. Besides, where military power is in
troduced military rnaNin,s are propagated and
adopted, which aTe inconsistent with and MUST
soon eradicate every idea of civil government.
Do we not already find some persons weak
enough to believe that an officer is bound to
obey The order of his superior, though it even
be against the law. And let any one consider
whether this doctrine does not lead directly
even to the setting up that officer, whoever he
may be, as tyrantp p'-Detroa Free Frees.

TIE CHESTERFIELD ELECTION FRAuD.-In

The CHESTERFIELD ELECTION FRAUD.-1n
Chesterfield, all the printed Reform tickets
were Numbered, and record was kept of every
number voted, with the name of the person vo-
ting it. In this way, the Reform majority at
Oro precinct was known to be 123. But the
box was put in the hands of one Of Rev: R. j.
Donaldson's particular friends. Mr.. D. was
ono of the County Commissioners of Election,
and also candidate for State Senator. When
the votes were counted none of the numbered
tickets known to have been put in were found,
but others came out in their place bearing the
name of R. J. Donaldson. Other boxes had a
similar experience, and in due time Mr.. Don,
aldson was declared elected by majority OF
81: He was Immediately indicted for perjury
and at preliminary examination on the 4th,
was bound over for trial in January, with three
Others. At that examination, one of the pre-.
clint managers testified to having seen list OF
fictitious names, in Mr.. DPS hand writing, which
was sent to his precinct to be added to their
poll list. This case was SO plain that the State
board was compelled to give the election In
Chesterfield to the Reform candidates. YORK.
