A Paris correspondent of Northern
journal gives additional Importance to
the fear expressed by Gen. Trochu, that
advantage would be taken of siege by
the mob to plunder and murder. If we
are to credit the report. that same thirst
for blood which deifed the guillctine is
already rife with the sans culoNes. The
old cry of denunciation against aristo-
Gratis is not only heard, but is gradually
growing as fierce and savage as of old.
Violent threats are INDUCED in against
the ladies yet remaining in the city who
we're conspicuous at all court ccremoni-
ais and fetes, under the Empire; even
the secret arrest and incarceration of
several in Vinccnnes being already ru.
mored. If the tiger is not entirely loose,
it is yet evident that his leash is not very
strong in the hands Of the Republic, and
that it is not entirely without the bounds
of possibility for the old "reign of ter
ror" to find modern parallel. General
Trochu is, for one, not insensible of the
danger, and it is to be hoped his frank
ness and foresight may result in entirely
averting such calamity.

The following confidential circular
was recently picked up in front OF the
Central Hotel at Union Court House,
where It had, in all probability, ;. accord
ing to the evidence adduced, been drop
ped by one of,'the Radical leaders in
that section.
The original is with the Secretary of
the Executive Committee of the Union
Reform Party, and can be seen at his
Office. The facts connected with it's bo-
ing found are supported by afidavits,
which also can be seen at the Executive
Committee Rooms:
CONFIDENTIAL CIRCULAR
COMRADES: The radical cause is in
danger. Tho Reform party is gaining
rapidly. Our party is being divided in
different sections; nothing but tre-
mendous effort with the whole radical
party united as one man can save the
party from defeat We must gain the
elections this fall, or our party is ire
vocnbly annihilated. We must snve our
cause, although we may bo called upon
to sacrifice the lives of some our best
men 10 carry the point. Remember
Randolph, the martyr OF his own party;
it was his foul murder being charged to
tho Democrats that saved the State for
General Scott, two years ago We
must win again, if we have to sacrifice
the lives OF score of our prominent
leaders. The question naturally pre-
sents itself as to how we shall determine
who to offer up. [ know of no better
plan than this: Let all the Leagues in each
County appoint ave delegates from each
League, to meet at some central point in
the County; and let it be the duty of
these delegates to select one promi-
nent colorod man Of the party in the
County for special and important pur-
pose, to be MADE known to him by the
Governor, at the proper time. Lot the
name of each man thus selected be re-
ported to the Governor, whose duty it
shall be to take the necessary steps
through the constabulary force to have
them put to death in some secret place,
and let the crime be charged to the
Reform party. This plan will unite the
negroes for tho radicals, and the day will
be ours. This plan will be made known
to our prominent white members of the
Union League party in each County,
and it is expected that the greatest eau
ton and secrecy will be observed, and
that the plan will be carried out about
the goth Of September. This plan
meets the entire approval Of the Secret
Council, and is signed by the initials of
the committee appointed to write this
circular n. G. P.

Tie war in Europe, although it is con-
ceded to be something of war, is not
the only war in progress at the present
time. In Borneo, about the beginning
Of juno, an expedition, of IL, 900 Malays,
commanded by his Highness, the Raiah
of Saranak, attacked body Of Dyaks and
defeated shcm with voluminous slaugh-
ter. The Dyaks are q very peacefully
disposed people, but have rendered them
selves peculiarly obnoxious by cutting
of the heads of everybody they captured
out side of their own circle, and his High
ness couldn't stand it any longer. It is
expected that this expedition will bring
the decapitating Dyaks to their senses,
and enable traders to develop the re-
sources OF those primitive lands which
abound in gntta.percha, camphor, bees

Mr.. EDITOR: The Radicals Of both
factions in this place are much excited
over the probable course the Reformers
will take. 1t is suggested by some of
the knowing ones that we will, at the
last moment, bring out = ticket aud beat
both. We only wish such q thing could
be dono. The Nash party are very
shrewd, and think to either buy or
frighten of good-naturcd Pickett, by
telling him how these terrible Reform
men are going to beat them both; that
he had better withdraw aud make sure
thing OF putting in good Radicals; tha!
they will give him an Office, ii be will
only do this, &c. Oh! how those fellows
do hate to take their fingers out of the
public crib! The Reformcrs will con-
slider the matter OF nominations shortly;
and as there is no prospect OF electing
an honest Reform man, they Will doubt
less como to the conclusion to make up
their ticket from the two already in the
ield rs we can find one or two honest
men on each ticket, and thus show the
extreme Rads that Rcformers will vote
for honest colorcd men. I don't think
either party are doing their duty, for l
have not had a candidate to shake hands
with me in a month.

ORGANIZE WHITE COMPANIES. With
in the last few days the colored militia
company in this town, and for aught we
know the other companies in this coun-
ty, have received arms and ammunition.
This is, no doubt, intended by our kind
Governor as Oh intimidation of the white
people of York, and as such it is hard to
bear. But wo would earnestly entreat
white citizons to restrain themselves, in
case OF any overbearing treatment, for
the good of the country. Any case of
individual resistance, unless under very
extraordinary provocation, would be
used ns pretext for martial law, and
might be the occasion for great disorder.
The proper method of meeting this
emergency is to organize white militia
company in every township-not to car
ry on war, but for the purpose of pre-
venting it. So far rs the coIored militia
is concerned, we have no fear of it's ever
terrifying York County, either alone or
backed by the Governor We are aware
that our white citizens are perfectly
competent to protect themselves against
outrage or danger, and that they are no
less willing than able to do so.
1t IS for this very reason that We advo-
cate the formation Of white militia COM
panics. Organization renders more eff
fective individual resistance to aggres-
sion, and, ut the same time, confines it
within proper bounds. The knowledge
that there is an organized force to pro-
tect them will restrain men from acts of
blind or reckless resistance The same
knowledge will also cool the ardor of
! those who desire TO use the militia for
the purpose Of terrifying peaceful and
unoffending population. We believe the
immediate organization of white COM
panies is also called for as All act of hu-'
manity to the ignorant rank and file of
the militia, who are the mere tools of
moro designing men. With their pres
ent Instructions (that they are to scare
the white people,) they are liable at any
time to commit some act that will throw
the county into the horrors of general
strife. It is important that they be in
and therefore We suggest the immediate
formation of companies, of at least thirty
men each, III every township. These
companies can be SO combined as to form
thrce full companies, whose services can
be rendered to the Governor. Ii Gov
Scott accepts their services, well and
good; if not, keep up the organizations
ready for any emergency.
But while We advocate preparation for
ills that may happen, we do not advise
anything to provoke civil war. On the
contrary, we desire to use our whole in
huence in persuading our fellow-citizens
to bear patiently anything short of actual
dishonor or inexcusable oppression. II
we are to have bloodshcd, let the re-
sponsibility not lie at our door. Let us
rather strive to prevent it by showing
ourselves prepared for the crisis, and
then ii it is forced upon lis we can, with
clear conscience, use our united
strength i'll defence of our rights and
liberties. - [orhriHe Enquirer.

We fail to see the charged inconsis-
tency OF King William, in marching on
to Paris, after having captured Napo-
leon. All wars are settled by treaties, in
which it is the object of each party to
exact the most favorable terms possible.
King William, by marching on to Paris,
simply seeks to place himself in this
position, and thus secure a speedy set
Element. To pause at Sedan, and re-
sign his advantages, was rather too
much to expect under any possible cir
cumstanccs. When he arrives beneath
the walls OF Paris, it will be time enough
for him to announce whether he intends
maintaining his consistency or not.

German Power---The German Nace and
its Developments.

German PoSver-.-Thc German Nace and
Ats Developments.
The pending Franoo-P -Prussian war has
brought ont in bold relief the power, the
skill, and the hardy qualities Of the
German people. Years and years ago
stray tribes migrating from Western Asia
and Eastern Europe poured Southwark,
and under Teutonic banners peopled the
central region Of Europe with hardy
and powerful race. When Cesar, in the
course of his military career, bore the
arms OF Rome Northward, the present
territory of Germany was inhabited by
the ,Gern,ani, that is, by ger-men or
spearsnsen. They consisted of numer-
GUS detached tribes, and were tall,
strong, fairhaired and fair.lued set of
people. These divisions were long kept
up, and it is only recently that the states
manship Of Bismarck has, under Prus
sia's lead, brought about union OF the
German States, that has developed al
ready vast power. The wandering
aribes OF the Germani have become trans
formed into one vast community, which,
stretching from the Rhine to the Dan
ube, have all at once made remarkable
exhibition of homogeneous people
welded together by common hopes and
common views, and illustrates spirit OF
4ntense nationality. Over 10000, 1000
Of people are now willingly fighting and
dying for ''the Fatherland." Under the
kingly spirit of William, the astute di-
plomacy OF Bismarck, and the military
genius of Won Moltke, the German
power, humbling Austria on the one
hand, and France on the other, has risen
rapidly into view. Let US hope that all
this power and all this development shall
be found not inconsistent with the Ii
berries and the prosperity of the people.
The Germanio race, it is computed, num-
Der in Central Europe, about 4S, 900, 900
OF souls, to which add about 5000, 900
more elsewhere located, we have total of
about 100000 of Germans in Europe.
In the United States, the German race
and its offshoots number, it is said,
about five millions. Assuming that the
Germans elsewhere number about two
millions, we have the German people
now represented by about sirty millions
Of souls. When we bear in mind how ex-
pansive, how thriving, how Industrious.
how steady, how persevering these peo-
pie as race are, we can form some idea
Of the great influence the Teuton must
exert on the civilization and progress of
the century.
Let Germany shun further territorial
aggran dizement; let her look to intellect
ual, moral, and material progress; let
her shun the deeting shadows Of militia
ry ambition; let her seek peace aud it's
fruits; let her concede due political pri-
vileges to her people, and it is in her
power to establish in Central Europe
great, prosperous aud happy State.
But. let her make the people of Germa.
ny the instruments of the ambitious
projects of titled heads, and her govern
ment will sooner or later go down before
the indignant uprising of an outraged
peopls.
