The fight in the South Carolina Legisla-
ture originated thus A negro clergyman
member said to negro lay member, You
nlggers sold yourselves out to Patterson, "
whereupon the lay member fell upon the
pastor, tore the wool of that misguided
black sheep, and baptized large legisla-
tive circle with his gore. The moot point
is whether the insult was in being called a
niger or a thief Next to this an all
important question is what Patterson,
Senator Camerons nephew, or son-in-law,
is doing running as United States Senator
from South Carolina, and where all the
money comes from over which the colored
members are elapper-clawing.

When there was some hopes of getting
rid of brotherin-law Casey it was alleged
against him among minor transgressions,
that he had formed number of his Gus
tom-house clerks into a brass band and
stumped the State of Texas with them
prior to the Congressional election of 1871
therein. 1t now appears that this tuneful
choir Is still undisbanded, and in fact
played prominent part in the canvass
which has just eliminated in the Admin
istration bayoneting the State Government

Thf 1ailg Atgsns,


Here are some salient points in the late
news from New Orleans
l. There is dispute as to who is elected
Governor of Louisiana Each side claims
the victory; and each side has Returning
Board to certify to it.
2. One of the candidates, Mr.. Kellogg.
is now United States Senator. The CON
stitution of Louisiana makes u. s. officer
ineligible to the Governorship. It is
claimed that case many years ago gives a
precedent for constituting the constitution
against its language: and this, in turn, is
denied.
3. 1t is not pretended that Senator KEEL
logg was actually elected Governor. 1t is
only claimed that he would have been
elected, if all the negroes had been allowed
to vote. His opponents deny that any were
hindered.
4. The State Court sustains Kellogg's
opponent; the Z. s. Circuit Judge sus-
tains Kellogg On this the u. s. troops
are pledged to sustain Kellogg, by the At
torney-General speaking for the National
Administration.

A son,hern Rsminiscsnce.

We find in the Petersburg Index an
interesting anecdote of the Confederate
General Joseph 4. Johnston. The story
is told by a rebel officer who describes
himself as zone Of the half frantic
Youngsters who were not content to sur
render with Lee at Appomattox." With
a small party he broke or crawled
his way through Grants lines TO General
Johnston's headquarters. Having friends
ON the staff he was well received; his
offers of services, however, were refused.
qe was frankly told that the end was
near and advised TO seek his home and
friends. il he had any home to seek.
Before taking this advice, be remained
some two days with the headquarters on
the march and in camp, snd one even,
ing, as the officers sat round nTe oil
"pine knots, discussing the one, unvary-
ing subject, what TO do, and where TO go
when the war should be over, as it was
plain it would be over in few weeks,
some one avowed the purpose of fleeing
to Mexico and offering aid in the army
there" We give the rest of the story in
the officer own words: N u~tl
7 None OF us the green ana ignorant
Confederate officers around the General,
dreamed then that Macmillan would
fail to maintain himself Jusrez was
almost an unknown and quite laugh
worthy name TO our ears. 1t was when
French arms we're in full tide Of success,
marching from triumph 10 triumph. The
Austrian Emperor had brilliant Mexi-
can court, and, as we thought, brilliant
Mexican future. All the show Of power
was on his side, all the money, the men,

The Gwins, Of Mississippi; the Smiths,

MEMPHIS TENN: SATURDAY EVENING. AUGUST TO- 1872

fulness Of time dukes of the empire, di.
rectors of departments, governors OF
provinces, generals of armies under the
noble Hapsburg, who had come so far to
rule the Aztec. Juarez was a fugitive
chief of government hid amid rocks
and cactus and desert, and we never
gave him thought.
Our, talk was wild enough, but Just
such as any other half-dozen Confederate
soldiers would have made. We dreamed
OF decorations. easy victories, quick ad-
vancement. We already questioned our
knowledge of French and Spanish. We
were ready to swear carambo, por Dios,
sacre, tonnerre. Meantime Gen. John
ston, who wastes few words, sat SILENT
his clear-cut face giving no sign Of his
thoughts, as the yellow light and brown
shadow crept across it. At last he
pushed with his foot pine knot further
into the fire, turned and said, If you
take foreign service, Juarez is the man
you should enlist under.
We were as if thunderstruck but, Of
course, we listened, and / can remember
now how, while the quarter guard senti-
hci Pdccu MS IouHuo -lOI we stiil MAIN
tanned in that last camp all the form of
strictest discipline-and while the fitful
light flashed down the alleys amid the
pines, where sleeping figures made
ghostly vistas in the gloom-I can still
remember how, in measured words, the
general showed us the vast effects Of
what had happened at Appomattox
Courthouse, and was about to happen
on Catawba and Red rivers; how the
French would surely withdraw, sooner
or later, and how, in fair contest, un-
embarrassed from without, Juarez would
win." rF.sfe rst

Wanted, a Universal Language f0I
the ArbitratOrs.
The London press up to. the 10th o.
July had been unable TO obtain any in
formation at all concerning what was
going on at Geneva, although our CORE
spondent there had been able before thai
date to send the two interesting letters
and the dispatch which our readers will
remember. The correspondent of the
London Times, writing on the 18th, says
The proceedings are conducted 10
French and there is not Frenchman
there. Mr.. Staemphl is German Swiss.
English is the native tongue of most Of
the persons connected with the proceed
ings. Count Sclopis is Italian, and Sen.
hor Itajuba, as a Brazilian, speaks Por-
tuguese. Sir A. Cockburn's familiarity
with the French language is we'll known,
and probably he is the best Frenchman
there, although he can hardly be much
better than Mr.. Hamilton, the interpre-
ter who has remarkable mastery OF
three languages besides his own. There
is no harm in wishing that such accom-
plished hnguists were more frequently
found among our young diplomatists.
Several of the gentlemen who, in their
various capacities of arbitrators, agen Is
and secretaries, are now at Geneva, in
connection with the Tribunal, are very
fair French scholars, but it is to be feared
that some maltreat the tongue which was
long that of courts and diplomacy, and
that sensitive Frenchman present at
the sittings would occasionally find his
nerves sorely Jared upon. 1t is on oc-
casions like the present that one feels
especially disposed TO curse the builders
of Babel, while waiting for the day when,
as has been predicted by no less an au-
thority than Grimm, the English Ian
guage shall become, if not the universal
one, at least so predominant as to be in
dispensable. to well-educated men of all
nations. 1t is certainly making immense
progress, not only by the daily increas-
ing numbers of the AngloSaxon race in
both hemispheres, but also by the in
creasing number of European conti-
nentals who apply themselves to its ac-
QUESTION, or have it taught to their chill
dren. The proceedings before the Ge-

and amieable settlement. II is probable
that when any important step shall have
been made-such, for instance, as COM

The Obiectnm 0nod.

A doctor was called in to see patient
whose native land was ireland, anC
whose native drink was whisky. Water
was prescribed as the only cure. PAT
said it was out of the question, he could
never drink it. Then milk was proposed
and Pat agreed to get well on milk. The
Doctor was soon summoned again. Near
the bed on which the sick man lay was
a table, and on the table large bowl,
and in the bowl was milk, but strongly
favored with whisky. What have you
here?" asked the Doctor. Milk, Doc
tor, just what you ordered, " But
there's whisky in it; l smell it. !" Well,
Doctor, sighed the patient, there may
bo whisky in it, but milk's my object"

A Paris correspondent relates the fol-
lowing: Three Prussians recently rode
up to the restaurant Pare des Msisons
Laftte. One descended from his horse
and ordered the master of the house to
prepare as good breakfast in an hour
as he had given them dinner on the 10Th
of September, 1870 A Saxon regiment
took possession of the Maisons, and,
finding the wine good, appropriated and
carried away the contents of the cellar.
The three riders returned at the time
appointed, breakfasted, and then called
for the bill: Breakfast. July 8, 1872, So 60;
wine stolen September 10, 1870 $4,000
Total, $2003 60. The Prussians laughed
heartily, when the young Count de La
molle presented himself, saying You
have your choice, gentlemen--psy the
bill or accept my card. The card was
accepted, and one of the Prussians will
be compelled to wear his right arm in
sling for several weeks to come.
