THE POLES.

One of the strange results of the late
war between France and Prussia, says
the Philadelphia Age, is an awakening OF
the old Polish nationality. The leaders
of that race are at work, and they expect
cert IN important results TO flow from
their action. A meeting of these men of
note, mark and influence, was recently
held at Lsmberg, in Galicia, in Austrian
Poland, and Polish noble, from Pozen,
opeply called upon his countrymen 10
take heart and hope, bidding them remem
Der that ''the darkest hour often preluded
the dawn, and telling them ''they were
about to fight gres, fght-a fight with
out quarter, a fight for liberty and life.
In this fight" he said, 'Poland will cons
quer, for Poland has allies. Yes, Poland
has allies, and the three crowns of the
Jagellons will centre upon one head. "
This is an allusion TO Francis joseph of
Aus ria, upon whose head rest the crowns
of Hungary, Bohemia and Poland,
and ii may be accepted as menace
to both Russia and Prussia, should
they decline to do justice to the
Polish people. If Francis Joseph enters
into this Polish movement it will make
his kingdom compact body, and recruit
his armies with Thousands of the best
fighting men in Europe. Besides, if
Prussia and Russia are forced into con-
test they viii hsrdly wish to array the
whole Polish element against them, and
hence both viii make concessions. The
Polish Teovement il not devoid of hope,
and Austria may yet be the means of CIV
ing nationality, once more, to a gallant
but harshly-Gaed people.

INDIAN TERRITORY.
Lively Scrimmage with the
~ Osages.

The Indians More Peaceful than
the Whites.
Fort SMITH, Sept 19.-The New Era
reports that Deputy Marshal Peary
brought in seven white men from the In
dian country near the Kansas line charged
with larceny and assault with intent to
kill. Some settlers living near the Usage
Reservation lost three horses supposed to
have been taken by the Ossges. Twenty
settlers started in pursuit and came across
a party of Ossges. The latter proposed
to the whites to go to their camp two
miles off and search for the horses. The
whites refused, and proceeded to take
three horses from the Indians, agreeing
to return them if the stolen horses were
returned. The Osages refused to consent
to this arrangement, when the settlers
attacked them and took three horses. A
number on both sides were wounded and
one white man killed. The Osages re-
turned to camp, when their chief at once
mounted so young warriors and pursued
the whites, capturing seven and turning
them over to the Deputy Marshal.

The Condemned PetrOleuses,
VERSAILLES, Sept 7.-Oorrespondence
of the London Times. The condemua-
ton to death of petroleuses is even more
startling than Lnllier's to those who
heard the evidence upon which it was
professedly based. They were found
guilty, among other charges, of completely
in srsOD, and there was not one jot or
title of evidence to establish this charge
in the eyes of French law. The wit
nesses were numerous, and had seen the
accused carrying drink about, nursing
the wounded, and in other ways which it
is not easy to put upon paper, making
themselves highly useful and agree able 10
their friends of the National Guard. But
they had not seen them set fire to any
buildings, or join in the pre-
parations made by others for
fire. They had not even heard the ae-
cused, with one exception, threaten to
set anything on fire. They had seen or
heard other women doing all this, but
not the accused. / confess l thought
when heard the conclusion of the report
that even the prosecution itself had des-
paired of bringing the charges home to
the accused.
Lullier has appealed to higher courts
for revision of the sentence, and it is to
be hoped that taking into consideration
that he was mailman for many years,
and that his family believed in his insan-
ity, the sentence will not be carried out.

department, at the Burnet House this
morning, and received welcoming ad-
dress by Mai. Davis, to which ne re-

and not from divided country.
At the Exposition
President Grant visited the Industrial

Large crowds had collected in the street
in front of the halls, and in anticipation
OF the distinguished visitor an immense
audience had gathered in the halls of the
Exposition, estimated at from 10, 900 to
20, 600 persons. The President was first
received in the main Office by A. T.
Goshorn, President of the Exposition,
after which, conducted by the latter, and
accompanied by committee of arrange
ment, he entered the main hal of the
exposition. AS soon as he had
passed the vestibule, the orchestra
commenced 'Hail to the Chief" The
party passed slowly up the central
hall, crowds surging down by thousands
from the galleries. Every avsilablespace
from which good views could be obtained
was used. The Presidential party could
only move with great delibeTation through
the narrow opening made by the police
officers. When they reached the fountain
where the great concourse had the best
view of the President the silence broke
into loud cheers. The President was
then conducted through the power hall
and the galleries OF the horticultural.
Mechanics and fine art departments were
then visited, the party returning through
the main hall where 8 temporary halt
scall ed, while Clement Oldhaber, Chair
man of the Horticultural COmruittee,
presen ted the President with an exquisite
boquet in behalf of the florists Oh Gin
cinnati. They then passed out to the
main Office, where the President wa s pre-
sented to the Managers of the Exposition.
There was no speech making. To Mr..
Oldhaber he merely said, 81 than you,
sir.
This was the greatest day of the Ex-
position. 1t is estimated that $4,000
were present.

were SO bad that the civil officers could

From the Wilmington Star, Sept. 7.

From the Wilmington Star, Sept. 7.
We learn from one who has lately been
visiting different portions of Robeson
county, that Henry Berry LoHrey has
recently been playing some practicalGokes
upon the soldiers and militia who are in
the field against him and his gang. 1t is
said that the United States troops have
their camp near what is known as Pleas
ant Prospect Church, and that about q
mile from there resides an old woman who
sells 'tangle leg whisky, who has been re-
ceiving frequent Visitations from the boys

day last six of the soldiers were proceed.
ing to execute one of their strategic
movements" alluded to, walking leis-
urely along the path, without arms,
when q man suddenly spra0g from the
bushes, armed to the teeth, and con-
| fronted them, startling them with the in
| formation that he was the redOubtsble
Henry Berry LoWrey. He told them
they were fools if they came to Robson
county with the expectation Of killing
or capturing him, for it would
never be DONE He had lat ly re-
ceived message from the Lord that he
had twelve years yet TO live, and further
informed the astonished "men of Mars
that he had singled out some of their
comrades upon whom he intended to
wreak his vengeance. Being unarmed,
the soldiers seized the first opportunity TO
make backward movement in the direc-
ton of their camp, willing to forego the
luxury of indulging in their favOrite
beverage rather thGn provoke the wrath
of the daring outlaw.
A few days after the above occurrence,
our informant states an officer of the mi
litia received message from LoWrey, sta
ting that he had visited their camp the
night be fore, and inspected their arms, to
see if they were in proper condition. As
8 proof of this assertion, he stated that
he had left his ''card, which would be
found attached TO one of their guns.
Upon examining their weapon, the name
of Henry Berry LOwrey was found in
scribed upon the breach of one OF
them, very much to the sstonishment
