The ROthschiIds, King William and
the Emperor Napoleon.

From the New Yorker Stats Zeitung.l
"There will be no war;" said lately
the aged widow of Mayor Anselm
Rothschild to an acquaintance, "for
my son will not give them the
money!. This was, doubtless, also
the idea of her grandson, Alfonso
ROthschild, when he came to Ems to
induce the King of Prussia to give up
his obstinate purpose and to grant
some small concession to the longing
desire of the French monarch. Per-
haps he wished to say to the King
that the Rothchilds would furnish
him no money; and that if he did not
take pity on the embarrassment of the
French Emperor they would employ
all their financial power to the injury
of Prussia and Germany.
However, King William cares
nothing for ali the Rothschilds in the
world. He has a well filled treasury,
with more than thirty millions of hard
dollars, the exact opposite of the
French treasury, whose accounts show
nothing except ON the debtor side.
Besides, the Council of the North.
German Confederation, relying on the
future appreciation OF the Diet, has
granted him an unlimited credit.
The King, accordingly, was In
willing to receive the financial negO-
tiator; and, while he himself packed
off the impertinent Count Benedetti
with a round answer, he sent word
to the rich Baron ROthschild by a
servant that he was not at home.
At this Mr.. Alfonso gets angry and
resigns his Office as Prussian Consul
General at Paris. It must be adj
mitted that this is a very proper act
on his part; for he would by no e
be a suitable person to represent the
commercial interests of Germany in
the French capital at the present time.
He ought also to be praised for so
warmly espousing the interests of the
Emperor Napoleon. Gratitude is a
beautiful but not a very frequent vir-
tue. When the Princes father, in
1S48, made in Paris the personal ac-
quaintance of Louis Napoleon, he was
worth about two hundred millions.
Out of these two hundred millions, in
consequence of the convenient inform
alton received from the Cabinet of the
President at the time of the coup d'
etat, and since then from the Cabinet
of the Emperor, he has made two
thousand millions; but of these two
thousand millions, the greater part is
engaged in all sorts of speeulations
and enterprises, which would turn out
disastrously if anything unexpected
should happen to the Emperor.

> A NORTHERN correspondent calls
attention to the fact that the Govern
ment, at the beginning Of the war,
procured a liberal supply of handouts,
and sent them to Bull Run. But the
rebels" captured them-thirty thou
sand in all. The consequence was an
increased demand, which made the
fortunes of the manufacturer. Such
ornaments were popular with a GER
tain class, who have still more dispo-
sition to use them than courage to
make the capture of the proposed
wearers. 1t is the same class which
so delights at this day to rule with
iron in and safety.

DREAMING AND WAKING.

l stand on the brink of a beautiful stream,
Where ! stood in years long gone,
And gathered flowers from its moss-grown
And listened 10 the wild birds song;
And theseenes OF my boyhood, so long passed
away,
With their hopes, their shadows and sheen,
With her loved in life's spring day
Is with me here in my dream.
One soft, white hand Is placed in mine,
AS Il was in that " long ago."
And her siIken hair over shoulders fair
Floats back from her brow OF snow,
And her eye, deep, dark and beautiful,
Seems wandering with the stream,
While she 1 loved in happier days
Stands with me here in my dream.
And the voice that once so sweetly fell,
When a promise she made TO be mine,
Is as soft, and low, and musical
As in that oIden time;
And the first bright hopes OF my life come
back,
And the world more beautiful seems,
Fofshe l loved 50 long. so well,
Stands with me here in my dreams.
The cares or my life seem Iightto me now;
The silver strands are gone from my hair;
And my heart feels again the deep. wild love
Ht felt when she stood with me there.
g . e o o o .
But the night has passed to the morning,
And darby again run LIES stream,
For sho 1 loved 50 wildly and well
Is mine only now when I dream.
OH they were glorious, g%IOriOusi
Those years that rave passed away,
And n thousand blissfuI memories
Make them brighter than my life to-day.
And beautiful faces and figures,
And eyes with glorious beams,
Have 1 passed ON nfe's great highway,
"Yet 1 see hers sill in my dreams"
Lies river may deepen and dafken;
It's pillows run high and strong;
And my soul with grief be stricken
As break its rough current alone;
Yet in storm and cloud. as in sunshine,
No idol shall come between
The heart that fills my bosom
And this vision OF my dram.
And mp where the walls OF jasper
Shut In the street, OF gold,
And where the white-wlnged angels
Live, but never grow old,
There amid the bowers Of Eden,
And atom its crystal streams.
l hope TO wander and worship
With this loved one Of my dreams.

ONLY three more working days be-
fore the election. Thursday next is
pregnant with important results. 1t
will decide whether we are to have
Radical Supreme Court Judges or
Conservative Democratic judges
whether we shall have a Probate
Judge selected from among our own
sons and citizens, or from among the
carpet-baggers; whether our County
Register and the Acknowledgement for
the Bartlett Court shall be good men or
incompetent men. We cannot magni-
fly the Importance of the election now
upon us. The election Of six Supreme
Court Judges is the highest and most
responsible duty with which the peo-
pie Of Tennessee have been invested
under the elective franchise. We sin
cerely hope they will discharge this
duty in manner to reflect credit upon
themselves and the State. Our ticket
for Supreme Court Judges is composed
of men of ability and moral worth.
1t is highly important that this ticket
be elected, for decisions in the highest
court, if wrong, irretrivabIy settle the
fate of the particular causes to the
ruin, perhaps, of the citizen thus
wronged. The mischief of such err
roneOus decisions extends far beyond
the particular cases.. They are au-
thOrity-binding on the inferior
courts, and are p~recedents,
apt to be followed in sub
sequent cases in the highest
Court. If weak Judges escape the
suspicion of being corrupt, they gen.
crate distrust and uneasiness, and the
law loses in a great measure its moral
power. Without an able and upright
bench, every citizen, when compelled
to sue for his rights, or when sued,
must be tortured with uneasiness. If
the decision is adverse, he is not salts
fled with its correctness, and feels a
wrong has been done him by his
country. The Judiciary eXpOunds and
applies the laws. The security of all
u rights rests at last with our
Judges. If they fulfill not their high
trusts, whether from want of ability,
courage or honesty, the rights of the
people are sacrificed. Let us, then,
elect the Democratic candidates, com
posed of men in whom we have con-
fdence, and who will make decisions
in accordance with the law.

ton, so universally manifested, and
which is appealed to by both divine
and human law-givers, certainly de-
serves to be cultivated and cherished.
lit Us then, people of Tennessee, show
that we possess those noble instincts
which causes the Indian to reverence
the bones of their friends, by contrib
uting something towards aiding the
ladies of the Hollywood Memorial
Association in their noble effort to res
III the bones of the Confederate sol
dier from dissertation, and to give
them a decent burial.

IT is the almost universal sentiment
of business men and of the country
that the income tax, which expired
with 1869, should have been permitted
to die with that year. But it has been
renewed by the Radical Congress of
1870, when it was wholly unnecessary
to re-establish it In order to the pay
ment Of the public debt. But in order
to large stealage, it is necessary to
have a large surplus of revenue, qnd

HISTORY OF THE QUESTION BY CALEB
CUSHING,

On the 9th inst. the Washington
correspondent of the New York Sand
ard, interviewed Hon. Caleb Gushing
upon the maratime question involved
in the fact of belligerency between
France and Prussia, with the follow
ing result:
COrrespondent-"Wh Via is the posi-
ton, sir, atthe present time of the two
belligerents with regard to neutral
rights and neutral goods?"
MI. Cushing replied, "That the
present relations of France and Prus-
STA TO one another in respect to cap
ture on sea, is determined by confer
ences held in Paris by the five Europ-
can powers which had been lately en-
gagged in war. They were Great Brit
ain, France, Russia, Sardinia, and
Turkey, together with Prussia and
Austria, who had not taken part in
the war, but participated in these con-
ferences.
These powers entered into agree
ment under date of April 16, 1856, as
follows:
l. Maritime privateering is abol-
ished.
- NCutld , nag CONClG CLCAlJo
goods except cOntraband of war.
3. Neutrals' goods, with same eX-
ceptiOns, are not capturable under
enemys' flag.
4. Blockades must be effective in
order to possess obligatory characters
as regards either neutrals or bellig-
erents.
Note, then, that the-frst of these
four points applies to belligerents
only.
The second and third apply to neu-
trails, and limits as respects them the
exercise of belligerent rights.
The fourth point, by defining block
AIDES, affects both neutrals and bellig-
erents.
The confrereS correspondent with
other governments for the purpose OF
inducing them to adopt these conclu-
sions, and the following governments
acceded, viz:
1. Inside of GeTmdny-Baden, Ba-
varia, Bremen, Bruins wick, Frank
fort, Hamburg, Hanover, the two
Hesseins, the two Mecklenburgs,
Nassau, Oldenburg, SAKE Coburgl
SAKE Meiningen, SAKE Weimar and
Wurtemburg; the result Oh Wnlcl Is
that these secondary German States
are now doubly bound by the confer
ence-i. e., not only by direct act, but
also by their subsection in all foreign
affairs to the presidency of Prussia, in
virtue of proper clauses Of the consti-
tuition Of the present North German
Bund.

| SHOOTING ArFRAY-On Thursday, Thomas
Newton, generally known as Texas was play
ing cards for whisky in the Rifle Saloon
when he called upon j. c. Scott who was in
charge of the place to give him drink, Scott
who was sitting in chair partially asleep
told him he wanted to see his money first.
Texas said if he could not get drink when
be called for it be would quit playing, which
he did and commenced abusing Scott, who,
for time received it with GOODNESS. Texas
persisted in his abuse in O shameful manner
until Scott who could bear it no longer, struck
him with his fist, knocked him down and
pounded him until be cried enough, when the
persons present took Scott off. Texas, after
getting up, washed himself, said it was "all
right" end left the Saloon. AT the time he
was abusing Scott and when ne was knocked
down, Texas had a single barrelled pistol in
his hand, which was taken from him while
on the floor during the fight by a bystander.
A short time after leaving the saloon Texas
returned as he entered the side door he
cried out ..'clear the way" and commenced
shooting at Scott who was eight or ten feet in
front OF him. Scott Immediately on hearing
the warning drew his pistol and fred at bis
essailant. The second shot from Texas pis-
toll struck Scott in the right side causing hin,
to fall against the bar and to the floor. Four
or five shots were fired by Texas and two by
Scott. Two shots passed through the bar
and one struck the large mirror behind the
bar SCATTERING the glass. A doctor was i'm
mediately called, the ball which was not
found is believed to have lodged near the
spine, its effect cannot be known for day
or two. Friday morning Scott was much
easier than during the night of the shooting.
Texas was arrested and lodged in jail. Atthe
time of the first trouble between these men,
two peace officers were present, it does seem
strange that they did not interfere and pre-
vent the shooting. They knew the character
of Texas when under the influence of liquor,
to be vindictive and revengetu. If they had
taken the precautions that the public expect,
and their duty requires, there is reason to be-
lieve that the shooting would not have taken
place.
