Peace in Europe.

* preliminary treaty has been concluded be-
tween, France and Germany, and the articles
ofipeace have been duly ratified by the Empe-
ror William, on the part of Germany, and the
Bordeaux Assembly, in behalf of France. The
conditions, are 7ariously stated, but it may be
relied upon that the war indemnity to be paid
byFrance cuts off important territory, which
is now ceded to Germany forever. 1t is de-
clared that Germany will be open to accept
suitable financial instead of territorial guaran-
tees for the payment of the war indemnity.
But such calculations are doubtless vain, as
the German power by this territorial acquisi-
ton will not be easily relinquished. Great
dissatisfaction exists in France at the terms
imposed by their conquerors. The German
troops, occupying Paris for more than week,
were withdrawn on last Friday to prevent col
lisions with the citizens, who manifested in
tense indignation at their presence. The pre-
scribed limits of France are to be rapidly
evacuated by the Germans, and already por--
tion Of the army has begun the homeward
march. The belief is prevalent that civil
war will soon occur in France, and end in the
restoration of the Orleans family to the throne.
Emperor Napoleon isexpeeted to visit England
Immediately The future of poor unhappy
Frnnce is more clouded than ever, now that
virtual peace has been declared.

AIR LINE RA1nRoAD.-The Charlotte Oh

AIR LINE RA1LRoAD.-The Charlotte o.
server, in the annexed paragraph, reports the
progress of the work on the eastern end of the
Air Line Railroad:
The weather for the last month or two has
been very unfavorable for the Operations on
this road, but from what we can learn, the con-
tractors of the different contracts now let out,
are pushing ahead and the work is progressing
as rapidly as the most sanguine could wish.
There is no doubt entertained now but that the
road will be completed within the designated
time. Let no obstacles be thrown in the way
of the contractors that can be possibly avoided,
and Let the work go on as it has been COM
menced, and let us hear the whistle of the iron
horse on the Airline Railroad as he wends his
way to Atlanta.

road, and who will take charge of the new Road,
we understand, will be in railroad circles an as
surance of earnestness and integrity of purpose.
And although we have spoken freely of the un-
favorable impression made upon our people by
the past policy of the Greenville Road, we can
assure it's Directors that if they will faithfully
assist to carry out and perfect this great work Oh
connecting our seaboard directly with the West,
they will be entitled to no small share OF gratl-
tude and confidence from this people. Our
readers must remember that this consolidation
is not yet accomplished, and from our knowi-
edgesof the facts, we would say that the Direc-
tors and stockholders of the Blue Ridge are
fully able to take care of their own interests,
and that of the State. And we hepecto see an
enlightened, liberal and progressive policy
agreed upon, SO that the most happy results
will ensue, and the protracted dream OF our
people will be realizedsin speedy and perm1aa-
nent connection with the great West.
One, word more, in conclusion. Let justice
be done, though the heavens fall The iniqni..
tous legislation heretofore proposed in aid OF
the lCreeryille Road met with. steady opposi--
tion from Gov. Scott, who, by his: personal and
official influence, assisted, to defeat the unjust
and dishonest schemes Of these railroad speca.
lators For this course, he deserves the ap-
plause of all those who have at heart she best
interests of the State and it's people.

The BAsEsT INeRAr1rUDE.-Evcry editor
can appreciate the following pungent truths,
which we find floating around, and in his heart
will fondly wish that every reader might realize
the force of these practical and timely refiec-
tons:
at is strange how closely people read the pa
pers. We never say anything that anybody
don't like but what we soon hear of it, and
everybody tells us about it. But, if once in a
while, we happen to say good thing,we never
hear that-nobody seems to notice that. We
may pay some man hundred compliments,
and give him dozen puhs, and he takes it as
a tribute to his greatness and never thinks any
thing about it-never thinks it does him any
good. But if we happen to say something that
this very man don't like, or something that he
imagines reflects on him or his character, see
how quickly he flies up and gets mad about it.
All our evil is duly charged to us, butwe never,
apparently, get any credit for what good we do"

For the anderson MtelHgeacer.

Mr.. EDITOR: was served last week with q
copy of the Presentment of the "Grand Jury"
of Anderson County, made to the January
Term of our Court, in which they Complain OF
a carelessness Oh my part in not properly can,
ceiling the names of persons who have paid
their taxes. And in reply, would say that
there are but three instances of Executions
being issued against persons holding receipts
for the full amount OF their taxes. One must
attribute to mistake, to me unaccountable.
One other. was properly cancelled, but the ink
being very pale, was overlooked by Mr.sS -.
Crawford, who filled up the Executions; and
the third was occasioned by the amounts in two
places being added together and only numbered
in ole, SO that in checking off the paid names,
found no number that should be to this, as
there was only one number for two names.
/ am fully aware Of much complaint, arising
from the fact that several persons who paid q
part of their taxes had issued against them ex-
ecutions for the part Of their property on which
the taxes were not paid, And for this do net
feel at all chargeable as it was no fault Of mine
but arose from the fact that the property, in
1868, was assessed by the old Beat Lines-and
| in 1869, was assessed by the Township Lines i;
and the assessment of the land in 1866 being
taken for 1863, and the personal property being
assessed both years, led to the entry on the, Tax
Duplicate of the same name, In two or more
Townships, and knowing this fact Instructed
Mr.. Sam. Crawford, Whom find an accurate
and correct assistant to ask every taxpayer
if he was assessed, OF owned property in more
than one Township. And if they answered
in the negative, / turned to the next name who
wanted to pay, supposing that every, man
knew what amount of property he owned, and
the receipts all show the amount of Real and
Personal property, giving the number of acres
of land and their aggregate value.
| Now, when there. has been issued between
10,O0O sand l2,0O0i receipts, ask any candid,
fair-minded man how, under the circumstances
the whole matter of tax collecting being en-
tirely new-they could reasonably expect that
no more mistakes should occur.

The Forty.seeond Congress

REPRESENTATIVES. The former Speaker, Hon..
James G.. Blaine, was again nominated by the

The pcolitical complexion of the Senate, when

A Double Homicide.

We have been informed that strange and
terrible tragedy was enacted at Pickens @. Fl.
on Friday last, resulting in the death. of two:
persons by each others hands. 1t seems thata-
man named Zachariah Young, from the noun
tains, passed through the village with an OK
wagon on Friday evening He was accompa-
MED by another named Stansell, While in or
about the village, suspicion was aroused as to
the contents of the wagon, and Anderson Loop
er, Deputy U. s. Marshal, determined to seize
the contents, supposed to be whiskey, and for
this purpose took with him man by the name
of Durham, who was considerably under the
influence of liquor himself, and it is said that
Looper was also intoxicated. These two over
took Young's wagon, about nine o'clock at
night, in less than one mile from the Court
House, descending ahin. The pursuers were
on horseback, and Looper dismounted, gayehis
reins to Durham, and approached the wagon.
He informed Young as to his purpose, and re-.
ceived in reply demand for his authority, to
which Looper responded that if Young would
go back to the house the authority would be
exhibited. At this precise moment, tits stated
GldI LOOIJeE udU LIS .plStUl upOu
Young defying him to make the; arrest, that he
cooked his pistol ; and thereupon Young drew his
repeater and fred upon Looper, the ball taking
effect about;the centre of his breast. Whether
or not Looper fired simultaneously, it has not
been ascertained ;ibut the conjecture has been
made that the sudden shock threw him back
wards, just sufficient to raise his weapon on
line with Young, who was,still in the wagon.
At any rate, when the crowd gathered from
neighboring houses, it was discovered that
Looper had crossed the road after being shot,
and fell over some rails, where he was found
dead. The oxen had carried the wagon down
to the branch, short distance and when ex-
amined the by-standers were Mortified to know
that Young also was killed, and his corpse
lying in the wagon. A coroner's inquest elici-
ted the facts above narrated, and the testimony
of Stansell and Durham coincided as to the cir
cumstances attending the shooting. Both bod
les were carried to their homes the next day,
and were buried on Sunday. It is one of the
most singular and dreadful encounters we have
ever recorded, and really seems to partake of
the nature of bloody deeds recounted of the
most desperate characters known to border life.
1t is presumed that both of these men antici-
pated desperate work, from the fact that both
had their weapons accessible when the conver-
sation began and it is said that Young had de-
clared his intention of killing the first man
daring to Interfere with his traffic.

Adjournment mt of the Legislature.

With no untoward accident, the concentra-
ted essence of ignorance and prejudice, known
as the Legislature of South Carolina, adjourned
the day. before yesterday. Of course, we allude
to the majority in making use of opprobious
terms, for there are some men of both parties
whose inclination and efforts were directed to-
wards the welfare of this degraded common
wealth. But, alas they were almost powerless,
and really accomplished only q modicum of
healthy and beneficial legislation, compared to
