The Baltimore American, which
is familiar with the movements
of it's former fellow-citizen, Major
Bonaparte, says: "Major jerome
Patterson Bonaparte arrived ut
Havre on Thursday, in the steam
er Lafayette, from New York, and
will probably enter upon the field
duty. He is at present Chef desca-
dto1a in a cavalry regiment, a rank
between Captain and Major, and
which has 80 corresponding posi-
ton in our army. On the 18th
of August, he will be promoted to
Lieutenant Colonel, at least such
are the expectations, and will ex-
change into another regiment. In
Algeria and in Italy he has serv-
ed in almost every branch of the
infantry and cavalry, and every
step Of his promotion has been
won by soldierly gallantry."

The Russian Press on the War.

From the Eastern Budget of Vienna. July a7]
The whole of the National
press of Russia has taken so de-
cided line against Prussia that it
seems impossible. for the Govern
ment here to take part in the war
on the side of that power. At
first the seni-official Goloss SEEM
ed to hesitate as to the tone it
should adopt. and published some
criticisms of the conduct of France,
for which it was sharply taken to
task by Gen. Fadeyeff,s organ, the
Exchange Gazette, as short sight
ed and unpatriotic, while the Mos
COW Gazette obtained nothing but
praise for it's strong anti-Prussian
opinions. This hesitation has now
quite disappeared, and the Goioss
vies with the other papers in
abuse Of Prussia, and not France,
as the real disturber Of the peace
of Europe, and that Russia's inter-
ests demand that France should
be victorious in coming struggle.
At the same time it urged that
Russia should remain neutral,
even it Austria and Italy should
take part in the war, as she can
only gain by tho exhaustion of the
other Powers. The few advocates
of war policy in Russia, it says,
have not been supported by public
opinion; and as for the Treaty of
Paris, it can be disregartled by
the Russian Government without
drawing the sword. ,,. -, .s.-.

reach of all, irrespective of race, color oz
previous condition, the means of obtaining in

Res0zred. I. That separate schools for each
race would best promote the interest of the
children of each as by this means hostile and
bitter feelings would be prevented and civil
contention avoided.
2. That in mixed schools great injury will
be done the canse Of education in this State
as neither race will send their children to such
schools.
3. That there is no necessity for mixed
schools, as separate schools can be established
wherein the children of each race can be better
instructed; and all of the perplexing evils
avoided.
4. That an equal and just distribution of the
school fund should be made between white and
colored schools, and every eff"rt should be
made to foster and encourage the formation OF
coorec scho0ls and the advancement of the
education of the colored people.
S. That the Radical party is responsible for
the present inefficient law; it is party
measure and deceit, designed to forward
partisan purposes. and to this end they have
inaugurated a system bv which the cause of
education is retarded.

N1ETZ, NANCY AND CHALONS.-
The first named of these cities,
the ancient capital of the Medio-
matrici OF Caesars commentaries,
and afterwards of the kingdom of
Austrasia, situated at the junction
of the Seille with the MoselIe, on
the right bank of which it's citadel
is situated, is one Of the strongest
places in France, against whom it
was originally fortified by the
German Emperors. In 1862 it
came under the protection of
France. Population in 1852, 49,
900.
Nancy, of about the same size
| as Metz, is 20 miles south from
that place, on the left bank of the
Mcurthe, which is the east fork of
! the Moselle.
Chalons, about half way between
Metz and Paris, less important as
a city than the places before de-
scribed, has been under the pres
cnt empire the standing camp of
tho French army. 1t is most
memorable for the defeat of Attila
by the Romans and their allies
A. D., 45l, one of the decisive
battles of the world. This city il
distinguished as Chalons-sur-Ma
rue, and must not be confoundet
with Chalons-sur-Saone.

a letter from Greenville, Ten
nessee, received at Washington
to be submitted to the Commis-
sioner of Pensions, states that
Representative II. r. Butler, Of
that Congressional district, COM
menced his pension and bounty
speculation in October, 1867, and
among the serious charges against
him is that he procured back pay
and allowances to the amount of
$4OO, but gave only $40 to the
widow in whose behalf it was OBJ
tanned. Further, that he made a
business Of having bills passed by
Congress, the recipients of the.
benefits paying him one-half Of
the sum; and that he obtained Il
pension for Il man who had served
as a Confederate soldier, never
having been in the Union army.
1t is alleged that Butler and his
son keep q store, and compel those
for whom tho father receives pen
sions to take out the amount in
groceries at q large advance over
the usual price.
