The Franklin (Tenn.) ReUie1U, of
Thursday last, says that on the Tues
day evening before, intelligence was
brought to Policeman Jas. NJ. NichOl,
that negro named Jim Rose, living
between the Columbia and LeWisburg
turnpikes, on Depot street, had most
brutally outraged his own step-daugh-
fer, named CaldOna McEwen, aged u
or l3 years. 1t seems that the fiend
had forced her to go across the river
at the new bridge, into the fields be-
yOnd, where after accomplishing his
purpose, he beat and buised her Sc
verely to extort from her a promise of
secresy. On their return home, he
became uneasy, Notwithstanding the
extorted promise, and had determined
10 kill the girl in the presence of her
mother, and was only prevented by
the interposition of her mother and
the timely arrival Of Captain Nichol
who arrested the brute, but after con-
siderable of a tussel he got away and

SUCCESS OF THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE We
are glad to perceive that the exhibition of
pecuniary success this season. The deduc-
ton to be drawn from this fact is
that the people are getting to ap-
preciate every day more and more the
interests of science, art and invention, all of
which are represented in the American Insti-
tute in a manner worthy of all praise. We
have not had an exhibition in New York for a
long time so varied and so valuable in the
immense number Of specimens of progressive
art and manufacture presented for the study
of the public. 1t is satisfactory to know that
it has been supported to an extent far beyond
previous exhibitions.

The RELIGIOUS PRESS AND THE EUROPEAN
SITUATIoN.-We give few extracts from the
columns Of our religious contemporaries touch
ing the situation in Europe. 1t will be seen
King of Prussia for refusing to recognize the
French republic in treating for peace and in
sisting upon recognizing the defunct empire of
the last Napoleon. The Catholic papers be-
labor the ex-Emperor for deserting the Pope
as he deserted his own armies when he laid
down his bloodless sword at the feet Of the
Prussian monarch. 1t is evident the recusant
Emperor has no friends. ''Hit him again
seems to be the universal cry all over Chris

EXECUTION OF LUIS AYEsTERAN BY THE
SPANIARDs. Havana correspondent fur
nishes us with the particulars Of the arrest,
trial and execution of the young Cuban patriot,
Luis Ayesteran. An energetic effort was made
by his many friends in Havana to have his
life spared, but without success. The same
cruel power which deprived the gallant Aguerro
brothers of their lives and sent the venerable
Gocouria to his grave before his time, robbed
the youthful Ayesteran of his life. His bear
ing at the place of execution was calm and
dignified and he met death as became hero
and a patriot

BIsMARCK's MoDEsTY From Germany no
disturbance of the European peace is to be
feared" So SAYS the Prime Minister of a
country that has been now within five years a
party to two gigantic wars, and that seeks to
make the second what it made the first-a war
of conquest and aggrandizement. These are
perhaps the guarantees of peaceful disposi-
lion. The cool assumption of the Premier that
everybody else must be bound over to keep the
peace and Germany alone can be trusted is

WAR OF RACES IN NORTH CAROLINA. The
people of the Old North State have just es-

very serious armed conflict between organized
bands of whites and of blacks, growing out OF

a plantation and his being wounded in the
strife. Our correspondent at Richmond gives
the particulars of this little war, which luckily
ended without serious consequences. We re-

transaction is that the purchasers of the
