Citation and the restoration of common
rights to every citizen now deprived of

he said: Let us be one people, an Amer
lean people, forgetting our differences, de-
ploring our past calamities, and resolved
that we shall evermore be a united and
harmonious people. For that cause of
national unity and prosperity 1 stand and
testify Il beseech you let nothing discour-
age You to press on to that triumph which
will certainly be accorded us, if not in the
near future, at later day. Our cause is
just, let us never doubt then
that a generous people will accord it, and
that time shall write our memories green
in that we never despaired of our country,
never deserted her, and never wished to
make one citizen the enemy of another at
a time when there was too much bitter
ness, but pleaded for peace and reconcilia-
ton. Blessed are the peace makers; let
us endeavor to deserve and enjoy that
blessing.
Mr.. Greeley left for New York on the
IL o'clock train tonight.

there was considerable conflict Of opinion.
Gambetta,s political tour and speeches in
the provinces and the assaults recently
made on pilgrims who continue to flock to
Lourdes to witness the miracle of the Vir-

as likely to lead to trouble.

The AIabama Awkwardness.

IN NEW YORK, Oct. i0.-A London letter
says the publication of the ponderOus
Judgment of Sir Alexander Cockburn, dis
senting from the award of the Geneva Ar
bitrators, has had the effect to create be-
lief that the award was flagrantly unjust to
England. The language of the Lord Chief
Justice is very severe, and he is alike indig-
nant at the British and American Govern
ments. The correspondent says also that
the more the Alabama adjudication is stud
led and the better 1t is understood the less
it is liked, and even the thick and thin sup
porter Of the Government, the Telegraph,
finds cause for gloomy forebodings-
LONDON, Oct. 10.-Bentinck, Member Of
Parliament, in public speech last night
announced the settlement Of the Alabama
question dishonor to England. It was
absurd that rule should be made and
held to bind England to responsibility for
an act committed long before the rule had
any existence. England deserved the scorn
of the whole world sand would cease to
hold her position among nations.
A meeting of Conservatives at Castle
Rockingham was addressed by Henry Jer-
Wis, fMember of Parliament, and others,
who severely censured the Government fol-

Tho Theatre Last Night.

The Masonic Theatre was crowded last
night and the large audience most pleasant
ly entertained by an apt rendition of the
Ragged Cavalier. Miss Katie Gilbert as
Mariana was inimitable in her portraiture
OF the injured damsel. The more we see
of ''Our Katie" the more we are convinced
that she has talent of the highest order,
which only needs training and develop
,ment to make her brilliant star IN the
American drama.
The frequent applause attested the ap-
probation of the public.
The roaring farce of the Bibbses kept the
house In roar of laughter. ]. M. Gilbert
never appeared to better advantage than IN
the amusing part of Barnaby, the hem
pecked husband, and his final entire reduc-
ton of Mrs. Bibbs TO domestic subsection
under the inspiration of three bottles of
champagne was a highly entertaining
piece Of comedy.
Miss Belle Reynolds, as Mrs. Benjamin
Bibbs, did to perfection the unusual and,
we imagine, difficult part of subjugated
wife.
Mr.. G. L. Beverly as the tyrannical hus-
band, showed experience. We have never
seen better farce, nor better acting. Inc
foil house is gratifying evidence tnat
Nashville can appreciate and patronize tne
genteel drama.

WASHINGTON.
A Geneva Parchment.

=
WASHINGTON Oct. 10.-The Secretary
of the State to-day received by a special
messenger an officisl copy of the decision
award of the Geneva Arbitration, hand
somelyS engraved on parchment, with the
signatures of the arbitrators. The sdocu-
ment was enclosed in neat wooden cask
highly polished. The Secretary presented
it to President Grant this morning. 1t was
afterwards taken to the department to be
deposited in the archives.
Diplomatic Change.
Count Won SArnim, the first Secretary in
the German legislation, is recalled from
Washington, and will be succeeded by
Count Andreas Bernstorff, son Of the Ger
man ambassador at London.
The Mexican Border Commission.
( Col. RoDb, of Georgia, and Mr.. Savage,
of CALIFORNIA, two of the Commissioners
appointed by the President to take testimo-
ny relative to depredations on the Rio
Grande, having returned to Washington,
to-day called upon President Grant and
had long interview with him. The Pres
ident was much interested in the narrative
of these gentlemen, who VIII prepare
formal report for transmission to Congress.
The incursions by armed Mexican bands
into Texas are murderous and
have continued ever since 1859.
They have since that time driven
cattle estimated TO be worth several
million dollars from Texas across the river
into Mexico, where theirplunder is sold to
soldiers and citizens. Gen. Cortina, who
is not at present in active military service
but awaiting orders, is represented to be
one of the most active instigators of
of these incursions, by which he largely
profits. The Texans, while endeavor-
ing to drive away the thieves, are
sometimes killed by superior numbersl
of the Mexican bands, while occasionally
the latter suffers in ike manner. Owiny
ID these frequent incursions the border con
times in state Of excitement. There is
only one company of cavalry on the from
tier, which is of little use considering the
distance what requires TO be guarded, it
being 800 miles from the mouth of the Rio
Grande to the extreme American settle
ments. Infantry is located at long inter-
walls. The distance is nearly 800 miles from
Fort Brown to Ringgold Barracks, with
only one company intervening. Some of
the sufferers by the Mexican raids Travelled
200 miles to give their testimony and ex-
pressed their qualification that preliminary
measures had been taken, not only to pro-
tect, but to indemnify them for losses.
Gen. McCook, commanding on the Rio
Grande, coroborates the statements of wit
nesses as to the boldness with which the
roads are made, and testified to his inabili-
ty with an insufficient force to give the re-
quired protection. FEE 81
There is reason TO believe that the PIesi-
dent, in submitting the report to Congress,
will accompany it with a strong recommen-
datiOn that prompt measures be taken to
protect our citizens on the border in their
lives and propertp.

THE TRIANGULAR AT LEBANON.
Chatham Has Big Muster.


LEBANON, TENN, October 10, 1872.-
Gen. Cheatham was received here at the
hotel by a very large number Of his friends.
Quite number received him at the depot
and escorted him up town. The friends of
the other candidates didn't thiRk enough
of their chief5ains to 60 to the depot.
The h0tel was crowded with the friends
and admirers of the old warrior. Hun
dreds Of those who had served under him
crowded to shake his honest hand and get a
glimpse of his frank, manly face.
The General opened the debate, and &C.
cupied about an hour. His brief state
ments of his position were received with
great applause. Some Of the boys were
very boisterous in the 6c aonstrations and
seemed disposed TO lie them up. Mr.
johnson, however soon received
a patient hearing. His friends were out in
force and applauded their man. While the
crowd was divided, it was easy to see that
Gen. Cheatham, the man of the people,
was their choice. The strong men Of the
county are mostly for Gen. Cheatham, and
they are very confident of carrying the
county by a handsome majority. The
people, who have read aud thought, are
now warmly against Bfr. johnson, many
strongly. Hundreds have changed and
come out openly. Changes are going on
every day. Maynard made very strong
speech but no votes. johnson made quite
a strong speech, but it was not satisfacto-
~ defencs. 1t made no friends, and it dis
heartened those who had expected him TO
turn the tide backward.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 10.-The rencontre be-
tween j. n. Turner and Geo. B. Medley,
two prominent colored politicians of this
city, yesterday morning, seems to have
grown out of political iealousies. Turner
was anxious to be elected to the Lsgisla-
ture, but Medley opposed him and favored
G. II. Tandy. Both met at the reception
given to Turner Tu asday night, and Tur-
ner denounced Medley in strong terms.
About 8 O'Clock yesterday morning Tandy
called at Medley's house, and asked him to
get up TO consult about a meeting. Med
ley complied, stepped out On the street,
found Turner there, and reproached him
for his bad treatment Of him, whereupon
Turner knocked him down three times,
when Medley drew pen knife and thrust
it into the lower part of Turner's left lung.
Turner lies in critical condition. ~.
