IHE OAUSES OF THE PARIS DISORDER.
The present condition of Paris shows
plainly that the demoniac passions of
the 6rst French revolution are not
extinct. The guillotine. if not yet set
up. has been threatened; there have
been imprisonments pf the unoffenai,g
and helbiessj persecdtions of The reii-
gious orders, the public fagellation of
the highest minister of the church, under
the most revolving circumstances, and
blasphemous ntterances which seem in
vented to make them stand aghast at the
impiety which could venture on them.
The snbstratuns, however. Of the whole
movement tseeps TO be mainly the design
Of public and private plunder. Many
OF the leaders, no doubt, are of the old
breed OF fanatics and jaoobins; others
are ambitious, using communism, as
they would any other ism, for their per.
sonal aggrandizement. and some of their
followers are honest idiots, who believe
they are helping on the universal re-
public" But id general those SO fierce

the National Guard during the siege,
who have been living all winter rent

from the Government. while their wives
and children were fed and clothed by
regular distributions from the Govern
men" end benevolent societies. The
return OF peace involves the resumption
OF rents; and of the laws OF buyer aud
seller. and the. Provisional Government
has declsssed that: all useless expenses
must be ont down in France, the Ma
tional Guard reduced, and that all classes
must sharath financial .stress, until the
war indemnity is paid. Hence. the idle,

To-day we publish a letter from
Theo. Guelich, of tho Burlington
Tribune, in which he controverts the
assertion of Mr.. Steinmetz, that he
(Guelich) exceeded his instructions
when he sought to commit the Ger
mans OF Iowa, as Germans, against
Senator Harlan. Guelich proposes
to settle this dispute between Stein
metz and himself by obtaining and
publishing "from the other gentle
men present, their recollection of the
matter" We will aid him in this
laudable undertaking. Messrs.
Kirscht and Nader, Of the Council
Bluffs delegation, who attended the
meeting of tho German delegates at
Des Moines, say that Steinmetz is
correct in maintaining that Mr..
Guelich had no authority to use the
name of Senator Harlan in any
shape in that address to the Ger
man Republicans If Iowa." Mr..
Tape, OF tho Muscatine delegation,
tells tho journal of that city tho same
story. Now, lot Guelich bring up
rcbutting testimony.-Councl Bluffs

We take the following
aid the man was growing better.

We take tho following interesting
account from the Los angeles Star. Of
the immense vineyard and vintage of
L. J. Rose, Esq, of Sunny Slope
Mr.. Rose years ago was a resident Of
the Des Moines Valley, and many Of
his old acquaintances will hear with
pleasure Of his success in California.
Taylor, Blake 4 Co., of this city, are
his agents in this State for tho sale of
his wines, &c:
"Nature did much for Mr.. Rose,
Sunny Slope being true to name, a
southern slope Of the Sierra Nevada,
with q gravelly decomposed granite
soil, which makes it unsurpassed even
in this favored land, if equaled, for
the raising Of oranges, lemons, olives,
English walnuts, grapes, and fruits
generally. There is an immense
vineyard Of l55 acres, from which
the "Sunny Slope Port" and "Sunny
Slope Brandy" arc made, the sunny
Slope is especially adapted for the
making of . high favored port and
brandy. The locality having an es.
pecial adaptability for the making of
those; in fact, tie grape being so
sweet that no light wine could be
made, Mr.. Rose early took advantage
of tho peculiarity, and by application,
experimenting, and study of ten
years, has brought his port and
brandy to its present perfection. Mr..
Rose tells US that the great trouble
be has had while oast, is, to convince
the people Of its purity, for (judging
by their own vino and gfape) they
cant see how so luscious wine can
be made from the grape only. Mr..
Rose now stands at the top of the
ladder, he having made more port
wine and brandy. last vintage, than
any man in the State, making 10000
gallons Of brandy, and his port and
brandy are now used, even at home,
both by the Invalid and the well, be-
ing kept on sale by our druggists,
our wine and liquor houses, our hotels
and bar rooms.
Sunny Slope is as beautiful q place
as can be found oti earth, with it's
acres of vine verdure clothing it's
slopes, it's miles of orange, olive, and
Madeira nut avenues, its orange
groves, and fruit orchards. We want
more Sunny Slopes, and men to make
them"

THE VOICE or AN rRIsIzsaAN.

An Irishman makes himself heard
as follows in the Cincinnati CONNER
cidt.:
lam an Irishman, and havs been
a Democrat, but when saw how
my countrymen were dragged in the
dirt by those dictators, and the
mighty and evil power they we're
unconscientiously building up, I said
to myself, I am aiding these bad men
to build up in this free country
worse despotism than ever oppressed
us at home, and l lett them, and l
now call on my countrymen to weigh
well what they are dong in support
ing this despotic power, which is fast
crushing out the spirit of American
liberty. Who are these men who
lord it over us? Senator Tweed ii
rough, illiterate man, with an inor.
dinate desire for wealth and notorie,
ty. Swceny is q cool, calculating
politician, who is moving the puppets
to get to tho White House, if not rs
President at least as power behind
Hoffman's throne. Connolly is we'll
known to be cold, heartless, lying
hypocrite, who could not tell the
truth or do an honorable act tor the
life of him. As for Hall, he is one
OF the bitterest enemies at heart that
Irishmen have in America. Though
once President Of q Know-NothinS
Lodge, he occasionally dresses on St.
Patrick's Day IN suit of green to
mock and humbug the Irish. while if
hc safely could he would cut their
throats, 30 much does no loathc
them. This man is the tool OF the
others, and though unpopular, as
shown in his contest with Ledwith.
still he is kept on AS the sweep of the
others. Let us now see what is their
object in all this Capitalization OF
power, and how they mean to ac-
complish their ends.
Their object is to elect Hoffman as
the next President, and Sweeney as
United States Senator, in order 10
manipulate Hoffman at Washington.
They are boarding the peoples mon
cy by millions, instead Of paying the
lawful debts of the city. With this
money they can first subsidize the
Western and Southern press, as they
have already done the New York
press (save the fearless, Independent,
Times, and by means OF the connec
ton with Hoffman in the White
House the "tour masters" will con
troll the general government as they
now do the city government.

Is Quantreli stiil Living ?
srom the Lawrence tKas., standard.

From the Lawrence (Kas) Standard.
A sort of mystery seems to over
hang the fate Of the famous guerrilla
chief, Quantrell. 1t has several
times been reported that he perished
near the close Of the war, but MOTH
ing definite and certain has ever
boon stated. He has good reasons
for concealing his movements il liv-
ing, and has therefore done 30. At
different times, however, reports
have arisen and spread abroad to the
effect that he was not dead, and We
have good reasons tor believing them
to be true. Quantrell was seen in
1868 at the White Pine Silver mines
in Nevada. A prominent citizen of
this city, about Two months since,
convorsed with q resident of Fort
Lyon, New Mexico, who stated that
in 1868 he met Quantrellat the White
Pine Silver mines. He was intro
duced to him as Quantrell, and talk
ed to him of his adventures during
tho war, and about the raid. Our
informant vouches for the reliability
Of tho gentleman residing at Fort
Lyon, from whom he received the
statement given above. Its truth is
confirmed by another party, who
was in tho city about six weeks ago
and who also stated that he met
Quantrell at the same place somc
time during the samo year. These re
ports coming from different quarters
confirm each other. This informa atio1
comes from perfectly reliable source.
and would seem TO Indicate that thu
noted raider had survived tho wal
aud is even now somewhere in one o
our Western Territories. We simpl,
give tho facts as stated to us, vouch
ing for nothing but tho reliability o
our iniormants, one of whom con
versed, not long since, with resnlen
OF Fort Lyon, as we have stated. =
, For the present We withhold name
although they can be given if desi
