A SIGN OF A CHANGE. E.-The arrival of
the steamer Frankfort, from Bremen, at
New Orleans, on Tuesday, with more
than 800 passengers, mostly emigrants,
500 of whom were destined for Texas,
shows very oonolusively that the people
Of the South are firing Of that negro
labor which has 80 solidly arrayed itself
in political opposition to oil the better
interests of the country, by its adherence
to the radical party. This is only an in
timation Of what will follow the end of
the European war, in the shape of emil
grants, who will flock to the South and
Southwest, identify themselves with the
growth and prosperity of these sections,
and thus take" the place of that element
Of labor which is now pleased to place
itself in hostility to the interests of the
country. The negroes would do we'll to
note these arrivals from time to time, as
reminder that there is muscle else
where than in their sable arms, and that
the Southern people mean to avail them
selves of it, rather than to submit to
their dictation under the manipulation
and control of political plunderers and
adventurous. rs.-Augustd Constitutionalist

A naval duel, formally arranged at Ha-

miles off the Cuban coast, between the
Prussian gnn-boaJ Meteor and the French
gun-boat Bouvet. The Spanish war
steamer Hernandes Cortes attended as
umpire, with the Captain General and
other officials on board. After an inter-
change of five shots, the Bouvet attempt
ed to board, but her rigging got in q
''mess" the Meteor, her main and
mizen mast went overheard, and the
rigging going along with them, entan-
gled the Meteor's screws. The latter
just then smashed the Bouvet's steam
pipe with a shell, and the Frenchman
forthwith made haste to get away. The
Meteor, though unable at the moment
to persue, kept up fire on the fugitive,
and was duly declared the victor. The
Bouvet had three wounded-the Meteor
two killed and one wounded. The Ger

full in their performances. The Dayton Ohio

Logrenia gives every night at the Opera

like. He is the most adroit deceptist we ever
had here. Then his birds he has got the

do every thing but talk, and they make the

After careful investigation, it is ascertained
that the Kennebec dam was not injured by the
ice freshet to the alarming extent that news
paper correspondents and others have been so
industrious to publish to the world. Only
about seven feet of the upper portion Of the
structure has been carried away, extending
some two hundred feet in length The foun-
firm and substantial as ever. 1t will there
fore be seen that to make the necessary re-
pairs will not require a protracted Interrupt
ton of business, nor will it probably be neces-
sary to await the drought of summer before
commencing the repairs. To know that the
old foundation stands secure is indeed relief
and a blessing to the community.

On Monday, when the IL 80 A. NJ. accom-
mediation train from Augusta reached Hal
lowell, Mr.. Holmes, the conductor, learned
that the track about two miles below Hallow
ell was INSTRUCTED by disabled locomotive
attached to freight train which consequent
ly could not proceed. Mr.. Holmes at once
detached his own car at the Hallowell station
and sent his locomotive back to Augusta for
a heavy freight machine, the "Farmingdale"
not being sufficiently powerful to draw the
locomotive-less freight train. Another loco
motive was procured at Augusta, from point
near the railroad bridge, and arrived at Hal
lowell in just ten minutes time from the mo-
ment when the "Farmingdale' was despatch
ed from that station on its errand. Pretty
quick work.
