The North German Gazette positively denies
the truth of the statements made by the Lon
don Daily Telegraph in regard to the relations
of Germany and France, and pronounces the
rumor of grave complications between the two
countries wholly without foundation. A spe-
cial dispatch to the London Daily News from
Berlin says that no ultimatum has been sent
10 the French Government by Bismarck. Count
Won Amin, German Ambassador to France,
did convey dispatch from Prince Bismarck to
the Governments Versailles, but its tone was
very pacific and highly Aattering to President
Theirs. The Premier, in the dispatch, stated
that he was convinced that peace was secured
between the two nations as long as the present
Executive of France remained in power.

Dear Sir: The term CereLro Spinal Menn.
gifts literally means an inflammation ofthe mcm-
branes Of the brain aud spinal cord. An inham-
nation Of the membranes Of the brain and spi-
nal cord may possibly occur, as a distinct dis
ease, but we have no positive symptoms where
by to distinguish ordinary inflammation OF the
membranes of the brain from an inflammation
which includes both the membranes Of the
brain and spinal cord at the same time. 1t is
only by an examination OF the dead body that
such an inference can be confirmed. Hence
there is no such primary disease as Cerebro-
Spinal Meningitis; whichis compound term Of
three Greek words and one Latin, used as a
SYNONYM of at least sixty other simple and
compound terms to denote Typhus fever and
its varieties. This term, in common, with
many others, was used in describing that a.
larningly fatal epidemic fever which visited
certain districts OF different countries of Europe
aud, also some portions of the United States
near the middle OF the 18th century. Its ia
miliar names are, Typhus fever, Snip fever,
aud Jail fever Most respectfully,

RE-AssEssMENT OF LANDs-REvENUE.-
The Richmond correspondent of the Petersburg
Index says: "Up to this date, twenty seven couu-
ties of the State have applied to the Auditor
OF Public Accounts for blank forms to make
the re-assessment of lands, under the law pass
ed by the Legislature it is probable that
many more counties have availed themselves
of the act and are proceeding to reassess with
books prepared by themselves. The tax bill
was intended to raise enough money to pay 4
per ct. interest on the public debt; at this
date the officers of the government are COM
pletely mystifed as to what amount will actual
ly be received and their coniectures vary so as
to leave IN doubt whether >, 3, or 3 per Ct
will be paid. The general impression is that
no more than 3 per Ct can be paid next year.
Under the influence of this impression Virgin
ia bonds are quoted North as weak and the
transactions in them are confined to small sales
and purchasers.

SENATOR JOHN +. LEWIS We have shown
that this gentleman not only participated in
the proceedings of the Virginia Convention OF
1861, after the adoption, ratification aud sign
ing of the Ordinance of Secession, and the War
had actually opened by the fighting of battle
on the soil Of Virginia, but that he voted for
three persons as Delegates to the Confederate
Congress. We think that no one can Success
fully dispute the proposition, that, By holding
his seat in the Convention after the war began,
and participating in its proceedings, John +.
Lewis made himself liable as participant III
what the Republican party calls the ''rcbc-
lion as mncf so as a man who held seat in
the Confederate Congress, or the State LaglS-
lature. IF Mr. Lewis will pretend that, dnr
ing the time he was acting as member OF the
Convention in Richmond, after the war began,
he preserved and manifested his loyalty to
the y. S. Government, then this will show how
utterly absurd and unfounded is the assertion,
that there was reign OF terror in the country
which rendered it unsafe for loyal men TO
make known their views There was no CON-
pulson on Mr. Lewis to make him go to Rich
mond as member OF the Convention; and his
doing so after the war had actually begun IN
Virginia was purely voluntary act. How is
his case to be distinguished from that OF a
member of the Legislature, or any person who
held an office under the State, without going
into the army? He was neither impressed
nor conscrpted as member of the ConyeD-
ton. It is true he did not sign the Ordinance
of Secession, but that was the case with other
members of the Convention, who sustained the
Confederate cause.-Lwach Tng.
