The War News.

The latest Prussian dispatches state
that the bombardment of Paris will not
be delayed an hour longer than necessary.
A new German army is ON the way to
Strasburg to check the new French army
organization.
Bazaino is cooperating with the gov
eminent at Paris. The army at Lyons is
advancing to relieve him. The right
wing of the Lyons army fought the Baden
troops on the 9th instant.
Gambctta has arrived at Tours and has
issued an address to the French people, in
which, among other things, he says:
-Four hundred thousand National
Guards are now armed, one hundred
thousand Mobiles and sixty thousand Reg
ularS are assembled.
Foundries are casting cannon. Women
make millions of cartridges daily. Each
battalion of Nationals has two mitraileuse
and field pieces. We are preparing for
%sorties. The forts are manned by Ma
rines, supplied with artillery of the great
est excellence, served by the finest gun
nors in the world.

cd. Paris gives the w~atohword "Long
live the Republic, one and inseparable."

The united states and Prussia.

The State Department is in receipt of
official dispatches from Minister Bancroft,
which indicate a correspondence with the
Prussian Government on the neutrality
question, but nothing appears to sustain
the truth of the cable telegram that a de-
mand for an explanation and apology had
been made by the Prussian authorities on
the United States for permitting shipments
of munitions of war to the French. The
German Consul at new York writes, how
ever, to the Prussian Minister that sup
plies contraband of war are constantly
leaving New York for France, and that q
vessel has sailed this week taking an ex-
traordinary cargo of guns, caps and pow
der.

ENCOURAGING.

Our candidate for Senator has received
letters from various parts of the District,
pledging him the united support of all
good Conservatives and Democrats.
Among his most active friends, now, are
many Of those who supported one or the
other of the gentlemen who opposed him
for the nomination.
Let us meet the enemy next month with
our lines well closed, and he will be cap
tured, horse, foot, dragons and Maynard.

ders. The only time | was ever in the
counties of Scott and Morgan, l was in
General LeadbetteI's command. Ny men
had hard fighting to do, being in every
case attacked by the enemy. was known
better by the people of those counties than
other officers, aud everything that was
done was charged to myself or my COM
mand.
Here is the order under which I pro-
ceeded to the counties of Scott and Nor
gan, copied from the original which is
still in my possession:
HID QR's FIRST BRIGADE,
Near Wartburg, L. Tenn.
March 81, 1862.
Col. VAUGHN,-You will proceed with
your command, and, after taking Hunts
willie, send a portion of it, in two separate
directions, to scour the best valleys.
Seize all the Horses, Wagons, Arms,
Cattle, Provisions, &c. Destroy fences,
corn, fodder, oats and provisions, such
AS you cannot bring away.
It satisfied You are safe, occupy two or
.hree days in this manner, and report by
IoUvjsrs TO Headquarters at this place.
By command Of Brig. Gen. D. leadbet-
ter, II. Goldwaite, \. \. \. Gen'l.
lii had carried out the above order
strictly, as i, was my duty to 10, the peo-
pie Of those counties would have had cause
for complaint. As it was, my clemency
was very nearly the cause of my being put
under rrest-particularly for refusing to
arrest Mrs. Colonel Byrd, and others, as
subsequently peremptorily ordered.
The charges made against me now, and
through me against ny party friends, are
simply e@lectioueering tricks, but as they
may have a bad effect, it is proper that
they should be denied.
Having tried to do what | deemed right
as a Confederate officer, l have, since the
failure of the cause for which l fought, de-
voted my best efforts toward discharging
my whole duty as a citizen of the United
States, as one claiming and receiving the
protection of the Government of the Unit
ed States, and none know this fact better
than some of the Radical politicians who
are trying to make capital out of my rec
ord. Respectfully,
,JoHN C.. VAUGUN.

The Eastern Division Fair,

The Eastern Division Fair.
As everybody anticipated, in view of
the active arrangements made therefor,
the Agricultural Exhibition and Fair at
Knoxville proved to be q great success.
We doubt whether any enterprise of the
kind was ever, in the first year of its ex-
~istence, more creditably managed, more
literally attended or more thoroughly en-
joyed. The skill, ingenuity and taste of
a people noted for the possession of such
qualities was brought into rcquisition to
make the display of manufactured articles
pleasing and wonderful; as rich a soil aud
genial a cline as blesscs Gods footstool
was called on to furnish a glorious har-
vest of golden cereals, luscious fruits and
radiant flowers; while animated nature,
of every grade Of usefulness and beauty,
was made to testify To the marvellous
works Of the Creator, and to cur favor as

1t is impossible fox Us vj.Aagr limited
space, to give any detailed account u
what We saw 4, the Great Exbiti.jea,

were unfortunate in being compelled, per-
haps, to stay \; home. They should take
care to guard against such a contingency
next year, and in all the years to come Of
their lives; for it needs no prophet to tell
that our future Division Fairs will be
yearly holidays and yearly triumphs for
the people of East Tennessee.
\ large number of valuable premiums
we're awarded III testimony of the super
ior excellence of different articles exhib-
tied, and in all cases the awards were
made as dictated by experienced and i'm
partial Judgment. We have heard of no
case Of a,ssatiss.,..o with The decision Of
a committee. The amount Of lime and
labor devoted by many gentlemen on the
various committees was considerable, and
in return therefor they deserve the CRATE
full acknowledgment of our whole people,
for whose general good they have faith
fully acted.
Financially, we are pleased to learn,
the Division Fair was more successful
than its most earnest friends expected.
Of course, the large sums of money used
in preparing the grounds and buildings
and in d~ofraying the numberloss expenses
incidental to so vast an undertaking, have
been but in a small measure returned !;
but the industry and intelligence of all our
people are pledges that the investment
shall not be q losing one on the part of
those philosophical citizens who have
exhibited their faith by their works.

District met at Athens last Saturday.
Gen. Jas. Y. Lane was called to preside

resentation-which committee, after con-

les are offered, the parties proposing such
proxies shall show their authority or state
on honor that they feel authorized to act.
On Representatives, each civil
district in the counties comprising the
Senatorial District cast one vote, where
such districts are represented by the pro-
per authority.
The report of the committee was roceiv-
ed, and the counties called by Districts

adopted.

reclamation. A committee was appointed
to notify Gen. Vaughn of his nomination,
when he appeared and in brief and appro-
pirate language returned his thanks for
the honor conferred, pledging that he
would devote his time and energies to the
work which the position threw upon him
with untiring zeal and devotion.

GEN. J. C. vAUGHN's LETTER.

We publish below a complete and tri-
umphant vindication of Gen. J C. Vaughn
from the pitiful attacks that have been
made against him while an officer in the
Confederate army. These attacks ara
prompted by the most unworthy of party
purposes, and can have no other effect
than to recoil upon the heads of its au-
thors. They merely show to what streights
the party is driven in their desperate, sink
ing condition. Gen. Vaughn refers with
satisfaction to Col. John B. Brownlow,
Col. r. X. Byrd, and other Federal Off
GERS, to bear testimony to the uniform
kindness with which he always treated
Union citizens and Federal soldiers.
But read his letter. Nothing further
is necessary for us to say, and nothing
more is left for him in order to silence
forever the Islander:
