A Lost Child.

The following communication will prove
vitally interesting should it fortunately
reach the parties most concerned.
"To the Editor of the New Orleans
Times About the close Of tho late war
my brother, Geo. W. Moreland, found
small boy, some four to six years old, in
the city of Madison, Ind He had been
brought there by the Federal army and

rect from the army stationed there, can

frame, light hair, gray or blue eyes, fair

person, and goes by the name of Willie,

He told me he thought he had been raised
in city; they we're his only impressions.
He is very interesting little fellow, and
desires much to Gnd his parents if living.
| think he is between ten and twelve years
old. II is supposed that in the evacuation
of the Southern cities during the war, he

date for Governor OF Tennessee, says
"Next to 4 Republican, his election
will suit Republicans. That is, if they
can't get one oftheir own party, they pre-
fer him next. He was an old-lins Wing,
was Union man up to the breaking out
Of the var, and then vent with his State,
and enlisted in the rebel army, fighting
his way up to a major generalship. His
course since the war has been all that a
reasonable Republican could expect of an
ex-Confederate Major-General. He has
been mild, conciliatiDg, just, generous, and
liberal, without becoming Radical, and
stealing somewhat to confirm his loyalty
He ia good man, in the broad meaning
Of the word, and if made Governor, as he
undoubtedly viii be, will see that the
rights of the hum olest arc not infringed
upon. His reign will not he prosperous
one for the Ku Klux and kindred organi-

This is pretty good testimony to come
from an opponent. sIt is pretty evident

THE FIRST NUMBER OF SCRIBNER's
MoNTHLY.-The new illustrated magazine
conducted by J. C. Holland, and published
by Scribner Il Co., the first number of
which has been awaited with so much curl
osty and interest by the public has just
made its appearance. An elaborate and
tasteful cover design; a page on which the
type is large, clear, readible, and which
affords unusual width for illustrations:
about fifty pictures of various styles and
sizes, scattered thickly through the first
half of the number, make up a striking
general effect-aud will, we think, secure
for .SeriJner's Monthly the name of the
handsomest magazine in America.
The number opens with 4 long humorous
poem, entitled Jeremy Train-His Drive
by an "Old Fellow" who is understood to
be the editor himself; it is illustrated with
Thirteen very clever and spirited designs

War News.

The proposition for an armistice has been
unanimously refused by the leaders of the
Paris government.
The Paris government is generally sup
ported by the people of all classes. The
Journal Official announces the formation of
three armies in Paris. At the latest
advices perfect order existed there.
The impression is gaining ground through
out france that Prussia has only sought to
gain time by seeming to admit the posi-
bility of an armistice, in order that the
troops lately investing Metz could come
forward to Paris without danger.
There are now twenty-five hundred guns
in position on the various Notifications of
Paris.
The Prussians are now resolved to push
the war to its extremity without an instant's
delay.
Accounts from various parts of France
announce that the population is rising to
expel the invaders.
The French government has ordered the
arrest of Marshal Bazaine and the officers
of his staff, wherever found.
Berlin newspapers, official and otherwise,
throw the responsibility of the impending
destruction OF Paris on the French.
King William has issued an order that no
person whatever will hereaftr be allowed to
enter or leave Paris.
Vigorous preparations are making at
Lyons for defence, and great quantity of
provisions have been collected, and all able
bodied citizens have been thoroughly
armed. All communications northward
from Lyons has been cut by the Prussians
Tho town of Verdon has capitulated to the
PruSSianS.
A special to the World gives some inter-
esting figures as to the strength of the
French army and the Notifications of Paris.
From it it appears that at Paris General
Trochu has Il force of $50, 900 men fit fer
offensive service in the field Paris is abso-
lutely impregnable to attack, and can be
conquered only by starvation. There is
an abundance of food in Paris, sufficient
to last two months longer. There are six
armies outside of Paris, numbering $780,
900 drilled and well-armed men.
Another report says that the failure of
arrangements for an armistce caused con-
sternation in Paris, and the impression of
a correspondent is that in very short
time there will be such an cutlery for peace
that the Government will not be able to
resist it.
On Wednesday last, son of Mr.. J. II.
Greenway, in charge of team, attempted
to cross the railroad, short distance below
Havre de Grace, just as the cars were COM
ing, which struck the team, killing the
horses, demolishing the wagon, and throw
ing the lad some distance from the track,
bruising him slightly.

The recent refusal of .Ludge McKe;

The recent refusal of Judge Mexican,
of Utah, to naturalize two Mormons on the
ground that they were not men of good
character, has created no little stir in the
sacred valley where dwell the saints of the
New Jerusalem. The Mormons look upon
it as the first severe blow struck at their
practices, and, as was to be expected, are
indignant, and even rebellious. The saints
fully recognize it as the entering wedge
which will finally result in the entire over
throw of their power.
