The Republic Not Recognizad.

We copy the following from the st. Louis
Ecp,b'jcan:
WASHINGTON, D. c., September l2.-Min-
ieter WasLburne is in disgrace at the State
Department, and he has been informed by
Secretary Fish that the manner III which he
expressed his sentiments at the formation
o. the French republic was highly undipl0-
matte. The impression is That Mr.. Wash
bulne became entirely too wild, and his en-
thusia>n at the formation of the republic
permitted his diplomatic character TO be
Overshadowcd by his personal views and
feelings. This is distateful to Mr.. Fish and
also TO the President, neither of whom mad
any desire to be ignored in the recognition
of the French republic. They prefer to
wait q little longer to see what new political
features may be developed. for they are not
sure that King William will net see tit to
restore Napoleon TO the French throne. A
hasty recognition Of the republic might
place the United States in somewhat EN-
barrassing position and Nh. Washburne, it
wi | be remembers was exceedingly enthu-
siastic and made quite a ,eech to the popu-
lace, and Mr.. Fish wants to have it under
stood that he did not speak by authority.
and that his utterances must not be taken
as the well considered views Of his govern
ment. Mr.. Washburne, it is well known. is
a special pet of the President, and the latter
did not like to bear down Upon him too hard.
But Secretary Fish persuaded him that
Washburne's uttcranccs required 10 be Ger
rected. if not absolutely contradicted. In
fact it has TRANSFERRED that no decided stand
was taken by our government an the sub
.iect of the war, but that the dispatches to
Minister Bancroft and 70 others OF the
United States iorei gn ministers were OF a
very eouiyocsl nature.

EDGEFIELD.


A few days ago we chronicled an aeoi-
dent that occurred to DR.. p. Harsh, who
was thrown from his buggy while driving
through Edgefield. We understood at the
time that he was badly bruised, but had no
idea that his hurts were serious. The ac-
cident, however, was of more serious ma
ture than his most intimate friends had
reason to anticipate. The doctor was re-
moved to his home, just beyond Edge6eld,
on the morning of the accident, and from
the effects of the injuries received, died
yesterday morning at o'clock. DR.. Harsh
was an old citizen of this county, having
settled In Nashville between twenty-five
and thirty years ago. His sudden and un-
expected death will be regretted by host
of friends. The funeral of DR.. Harsh takes
place from his late residence this morning
at 10 o'clock

THAT LETTER-THE EMPEACH-
MENT.

Gen. Boynton writes from Washington
TO the Cincinnati Gazette. -1
One more Senator Pomeroy has been
brought to the front in the matter Of i'm
peachment; and this time by q former
associate, who comes armed with photo
graphs of the letter which Edmund Coop
er, the private secretary of Mr. johnson,
testified that he received, just previous to
the last vote, in Senator Pomeroy's hand
writing. This letter, it viii be remem-
bered, was to the effect that the Senator
would stand by any arrangement which
his brother-in-law might make. At the
time it was denied on the part of Pome-
roy as base forgery. 1t appears that the
letter was torn up and the pieces afterward
collected and put together by the pres.
ent owner. At any rate, this person has,
and exhibits to his friends a photograph
of letter thus restored, which Kansas
men perfectly familiar with Pomeroy's
writing assert to be his beyond doubt.
The owner also related how Gen. Butler,
Pomeroy and himself met and arranged
for the testimony which the latter was to
give before Buffers committee.
The opinion has been gaining ground
rapidly of late among those here, who, in
the days of impeachment, were its warm
est supporters that after all cruel mistake
was made in selecting Mr.. Ross instead
of Pomeroy as the SHINING Kansas Sen
ator. Time is fast setting the former right,
and hurrying the latter on to exposure.

THE REALISSUE,
From the Louisville Courier-Journal.

From the Louisville Courler-J ournaL
All further disguise is now discarded by
the Radicals and Independents as useless.
1t is well known on the street that clear
understanding exists between these parties
by the terms of which the forces of both
are to unite either on the Independent or
the Radical, whichever the returns atnoon
on electionday may show to have the best
chance of beating his Democratic Oppo-
nent. The object and purpose of this
union are also apparent, and let no indie
pendent, no supporter of such a candi
date hereafter profess innocence or deny
that he had warning. Moreover, let no
Democrat who fails to do his whole duty
hold himself blameless of the cOnse-
quenccs. There never was time when
the polling of every Democratic vote was
as important as il is now. The entire Rad
ical vote, REINFORCED by the negroes, will
be polled its strength and the degree of
indifference and dissatisfaction manifested
in the Democratic ranks will determine
the policy of the Administration toward
Kentucky. If the prospect of success
is encouraging We shall witness bogus
Ku-Klux outrages in abundance, Fed
eral interference, the erection of a
Brownlow or Holden government over
Kentucky, with all the infamous
outrages which now are holding
high revel in North Carolina. The Radi-
Gals are losing strength in the North and
must strengthen themselves by desperate
enterprises of this sort in the South. If
Kentucky is the next State to undergo the
doom of Radical and negro government, it
will be the fault of the Democrats who re-
fuse to stand up to their ticket. If any
one falters now let him never call himself
a Democrat again.

Robbed of Two Hundred Dollars.

Mr.. Linck, proprietor of Linck's Hotel,
near the Louisville and Nashville Railroad
depot, was robbed ofS2O0 yesterday morn
ing. The money was placed in the safe, as
we learn, but the door was not secured with
the ordinary precautions. Awaiting him
self of the opportunity, some thief, un-
known, distracted the funds from their
place of deposit and made off with the
same. A negro man, named Major Smith,
was arrested under warrant as the suspect
ed party, but was yesterday evening re-
leased at the instance of Mr.. Link himself.
The money had not been recovered yes ter
day evening, nor had the guilty parties
been ascertained. This is the third rob
berry of money, from stores and public
places, we have had to chronicle within a
weeks time, and we commend our friends
to increased vigilance in the care of their
greenbacks and valuables.

18th District are making extensive prepa-
rations for the concert, tableaux and char
ades to take place at McClure's Hall on to-

Maxwell Housc Soiree

A large company graced the parIors of
the Maxwell House last night, and passed
an agreeable evening, listening to choice
music from some of our well known pro-
fessionals and amateurs. The magnificent
grand square piano, manufacturedby by Stein
way & Son, and ordered through Mcclure
for the Maxwell, was used for the first time
publicly, and pronounced by those present
one of the fnest instruments ever turned
out from that celebrated mandatory. On
this occasion, Mrs. Atkisson, formerly Miss
Fitzhugh, presided at the piano, and ia
Vored the assemblage with some selections
from Norma and other operas. Prof. Bald
win was also present, and his violin accom-
paniment was highly appreciated. Mr. At
kisson sang several songs during the even
ing, and, altogether, the musical soiree
was both entertaining and agreeable to the
invited guests.

THE CITY.
German Meeting Last Night.

German Meeting Last Night.
The meeting at Turner's Hall by the
Germans last, to express sympathy fol
Prussia, was rather slimiy attended, there
not being over fifty persons assembled ali
told. Those present were composed en-
tirely of Germans.
At near 9 o'clock DR.. Rudolph Knafi,
| as Chairman, called the meeting to order,
and Gen. Trauernicht read the proceedings
OF the last meeting, which were received.
The remarks and proceedings were in
the German language, in which we found
ourselves as proficient in photography as
anybody who is unacquainted with that
vernacular.
Mr.. John Ruhm made speech of some
length and Of great feryor, and which was
as eloquent in inception and delivery, as
any to which we ever listened delivered in
that language. We. distinctly heard the
name of Napoleon" and from the en-
phatlc manner of it3 utterance we did not
think it was used in very complimentary
terms to that gentleman. Mr.. Ruhm en-
joys the reputation of being one of the best
German speakers in the State. During the
speech Mr.. john Ritter took umbrage at
the speaker, saying, excitedly, that he
ulou Waut 70 ucdT ABOUT HruSS1a, but he
wanted speaking against Napoleon and In
dignantly left the hall amid cries of ''Taks
him out"
On account Of some remarks of the
speaker, not, as our interpreter informed
us, calculated to offend any one, about the
influence of Catholicism under King
Frederick William Nv. two other GENTLE
men left the hall Mr.. Ritter and they
soon returned, however, and stimulated
with '1ager," as Mr.. Rhum was still speak
ing, commenced shouting derisively and
uproariogsly for Nspoleonl Napoleon!i
Quite sensation ensued, which, however,
was quieted, and Mr.. Il. continued his
speech. Mr.. Rhum closed his remarks
amid enthusiastic cheers for German unity.
1t was then agreed that the President and
Secretary, or committee, be empowered
to call the meeting together at any time
when deemed necessary, especiailyif there
should be battle and aid should be need
ed for the wounded The resolutions
adopted at the last meeting were endorsed
and the Finance Committee then appointed
remained in force. Speeches by Mr.. Kerr
and others followed when the meeting ad-
journed, Germany and Fatherland having
been duly sympathized.

A TRAGEDY AT ATHENS.
Midnight Assassfns still at Work
in East Tennessee.
Frona ha Kuox,-itIa vU1,io T,,l- Va


From the Knoxville Whig, July &c. sfAf
Our readers will remember the murder
of young Woody at Athens, several week
since, while returning home from church
after night. At the time, no reason for
his assassination could be OWNED, and it
was supposed the murderer was mistaken
in his victim. The following extract
from private letter from gentleman in
Athens to friend in this city, shows that
the surmises were correct:
"ATHENs, July "a. 1S70.-Capt. Har-
bison was shot in his yard while on his
way home last night and seriously wound
ed, four balls taking effect; two of them
lodged in his neck. This goes to confirm
the opinion that the shot that killed
Woody, was intended for Harbison."
Since the receipt of the above, we
learn that Capt. Harbison's wounds prove
not very dangerous, and that yesterday
he was able to be up. We sincerely trust
that the murderous seoundrel or scoun-
drels may be detected and brought to JUS
tice. Capt Harbisen is en- ex- x-Confede-I
rate, and it is supposed the animosity
against him was engendercd during the
