The Philadelphia Press saysthe
people Of France seem to be in.
spired with an almost superhu.
manhopeiulness and courage. The
ahelling of Paris continues, but its
inhabitants are not yet ready to
capitulate. The Army Of the
Loire, defeated, broken, and driv-
en- in confusion from its line of
battle, is preparing to renew the
struggle; Faidharbe, in the North,
is marching bis troops over frozen
ground to once more face the vic.
torious enemy; and in the East
another attack, unsuccessful, of
course, has been made on General
Werder.

N Another steamboat dis.
aster occurred at Shoe Fly Bar
some eighty miles below Memphis
on the night of the 18th inst.
The steamer T. L. McGill took
fire and burned to the waters
edge, and several persons were
burned to death. There were a.
bout sixty persons in all that per-
ished. A man and his wife who
had jumped from the boat were
seen floating and the lady was
heard to say to her husband,
Husband, l am freezing, let's die
together" and let go the plank.
He also loosed his hold and clasped
her IN his arms, and both sank to-
gether to a watery grave. Mr.. ].
V. Jones, son of Walker Jones,
formerly of this county, now of

a drove of cattle that he was TAX

~ We notice no material

E~ We notice no material
change in the European aspect.
Battles have been fought with the
usual result-French defeat. The
bombardment of Paris continues,
and its capitulation is well nigh
certain. The armies that were to
open its doors by scattering its be.
Siegers, have themselves been de-
feated and driven as ehaff before
the wind. The French soldiers
fight vigorously, but they have
evidently lost confidence in their
leaders, and SO are vulnerable to
demOrslization. The French out
look is gloomy indeed,
