The New York Tribune asserts that
'Georgia and Louisiana were carried for
Seymour and Blsirin 1858, bygeneral notice
given to the blacks, wherever the Demo
Gratis were strong enough to enforce their
threats, IF you dare go to the polls and
there present Republican ballots, you

used to be tolersbly fair paper, but it is
becoming very reckless of late. 1t
surely does not expect any man with The

sentstion as this.

"A Masonic hall was dedicated at
Henderson on Thursday. While the
exercises were in progress the cry Of
FIRE was heard, and the principal hotel
was discovered to be on fire. The ho-
tol was completely destroyed, but tho
visitors from abroad and citizens saved
almost the entire contents, including
the cooked provisions for the intended
Masonic banquet in the evening. The
hotel was owned by man named Car
rol, and was kept by j. Q. A. Grant,
brother Of Col. H. P. Grant of this
city. Carol had 500 and Grant
$1,000 insurance, both..in the E.na.-

GERMANY AxD FRANCE.

It is not at Ill strange that
wh"re 81 ruch bitterness of feeling ex-
lists, there should be frequent dificul-
ties between the German troops and
the people Of France and the occupied
provinces. Bismarck has sent . dis
patch to Baron Won Amin, German
representative OF Paris, setting forth
the feeling Of evaporation caused in
Germany by the outrsges perpetrated
on her soldiers in France. He threat
eos to seize hostages in the occupied
provinces unless the assassins in future
Who escape into neighboriug provinces
are delivered up to German officers by
the French authorities, and declares
that unless these outrsgos cease the
army of occupation shall be increased,
and the burden aud expense Of its SUP.
port, which are paid by France, doubled.
This dispatch has excited the French
to renewed bitterness against Germany.
The tone Of the journals generally is
we'll expressed by the following ex.
