Tyranny Uampant in North Carolina. So violent and outrageous have been the recent arbitrary proceedings of Gov. Holden and his military agent Col. Kirk, in North Carolina, that the Chief Justioe of that State, reconstructed and Republican, has deemed it his duty to protest against the defiance of law and oppression of the people. Holden replies by alleging that "by that inherent power of self preservation which belongs to all governments," he has declared "the County of Alamance in a state of and therefore the civil law is abrogated, and no oitizen has any rights, nor has the law, or the Courts, whioh Holden or his emissary Kirk, or the troops commanded by him, are bound to respect.

It appears also that Holden'a own brother has gone to Raleigh to remonstrate with the petty tyrant, but in vain. Mr. B. Holden, the brother, declares that as fair a legil trial can be had for any man accused of crime in the counties overrun by Kirk's troops, as in and, mounting themselves upon a single horse, they rode northwards into the unbrokeu foresls in tbe northern part or Westchoster County, then still oo cnpied by the wild Algonquins. He located in the valley of Peekekill Creek, a Jew miles back from the Bud son, where he became an ex'eusive land owner, reared lare family, and died in 1806, bis ninety seventh year.

Be resided ail his lifetime on a portion of ancestral seres, where he brought up a family of lour sons aud a number ol daughters. His oldest son, bearing bis owu name, born in 1770, the surviving ceuleoarian, removed about seventy years ago to his present locale, Grahamville.

His second son, Thomas, born in 1778, resided all bis llletime near tbe ancestraf home, and dfed iu 1862, having a little before Completed bis eighty ninth year. He reared a family of nine children six of tbem sons all still living. Tbe fourth, aed sixty, is the writer of this article.

THE BELIOIOUS PBKS8 ON THB WAB.

The war in Europe is a topio of the religious press this week. The several denominational organs remark on the subject from various standpoints, Tne Hartford Cmrcnman, Episcopal organ, couples it with the declaration of Papal Infallibility and Bays that both the war and the dogma are the outgrowth of ambition the one ecclesiastical and the other political. Its article thus concludes What will be the result of the war between France and Prussia no one cau foretell. Tho thirty years' war which iollowed tbe Protestant uprising in Germany, uy beequulltd in intensity if not iu duration. But one thing must strike every impartial observer, namely, tbat these ecclesiastical and political movements are foreign lo the spirit of the age.

They are tbe dying convulsions ot principles which once ruled the world; but wbich bave nearly lived out their day. The fnfon, organ of Mr. Beecher, likens tbe Continental belligerents to tbe Kllkenuy cats. Tho following extracts indicate tne drift of its article We are not of those who believe with tbo detractors of Napoleon ill. that be is actuated solely by a selUih diBiie for personal aggrandizement, and is indifferent to the weliarc ot France.

Still less cau we bold with bis eulogists that be is characterized by a self abnega tiod which subordinates bis owu and bis family's fortunes to those of his country. Prussia, there is much reason to believe, would, in the fulness of time, have been ready to assume, tho odium of the political crime wbich Bhe has now been adroit enough to force ber rival to fix upon himself. Tbe sympathies ot Europe must be repelled by overy step which if the telegrams ore to be relied upjn Napoleon has taken in tbe affair. i ranee, in a word, without valid justification, without a decent semblance of regret, assumes the part of the aggressor. The case standing as it does, we caunot conceive ibut any man witb no preconceived prepossessions or autipatnies can withhold his sympathies fur Prussia.

The Freeman's Journal, Catholio organ, remarks on the unreliability of war telegrams, in which it seems to have as little confidence as in tbe Roman dispatches concerning tbe Council. Of the war and the parties to it, and sympathizers with either side in this country it says: One of tbe most terrific conflicts that the world has evei teen is to be debvertd between these two Great Powers. It has beeu telegraphed tbat Russia bas le claieu fteelf the atly of Prussia. Tne present Czar. Af exandcr, is a cbaltoring idiot death struck as a norsc A NEW TBIUMJ.H OF PRACTICAL SCIENCE.

Phillips does not appear to have repented of his crime or to have botrayod any symptoms of remorse ine customary religious coloring was civ on to tho tragedy of justioe. The murderer road tho Bible for some hours the night before tho execu tion as he had been in tho habit of reading it during his imprisonment.

This exhibition of piety might be moro affecting were it not established as an old practice. A witnoss at tho trial testified that Phillips "always said his prayers said them the night the body of bis murdered wifo was lyin; in an out house near him, and said thorn ever since." His religion seoms to bo of the quality and value of that of an Italian brigand, who murmurs a supplication for mercy as he cuts a throat. Tho people of Richmond are to bo congratulated that the law is enforced in thoir behalf, and that murdorers are sharply reminded that, although justice may tarry for a while, it does not for that reason necessarily turn aside. The later experience of Dr. Kussell, of tho London Times who made a reputation in record ing tho progress of tho Crimoan war and lost it in describing the Prussian Austrian campaign is chequered, unpleasant and by no means bril liant.

Tho Doctor followed our army its ill advised movement which culminated disastrously at Bull Bun. He led tho retreat to Washington, fleeing precipitously although there was really no man pursuing. This misadventure thoroughly disgusted tho Doctor, who incontinently returned homo, missing the subsequent military operations which were worth seeing, and whioh would have supplied opportunity for his descriptive cleverness. It now appears that the Doctor is again in trouble. It was ho whom tho French goudarmoa arrested tho other day, while making a rapid advance upon the Rhine.

They subsequently released him, however, with his face toward England. It is to he feared that this mishap will dishearten the Doctor and that we shall hear no more from him during tho war. Perhaps we can spare him. What tho public want now is facts, not rhetoric. When Jenkins' graphic and telegraphic account of the Ames Butlor nuptials was read by a half curious, half amused, and wholly disgusted public, it was thought the farco of ostentatious vulgarity could no farther go.

But the capacity of the representatives of tho Lowell "aristocracy" in that direction was underrated. Having resolved to take tho world into thoir confidence, they aro ab absolutely unreserved hi disclosing dolicato details of private affairs. They havo caused to be published in tho Boston Post a description of tho bridal outfit which, in suggestive minuteness and coarse particularity, surpasses any personal exploit on record. Unquestionably they havo caused it to bo published, bocause the facts set forth are in their nature beyond the reach of any reporter, however enterprising, unaided by the parties directly interested. We are told that the trousseau includos, amoDg many other things, two dozen robes de nuit, variously trimmed, two dozen sets of under olotbiug, of divers dosigns, ono dozen embroidered corset covers, a large supply of flannol, and four dozen pairs of stockings, of different materials.

The Post says that everything is daintily and exquisitely made, and that "thero is a coquettish grace about" the nightgowns, and stockings, and under clothing, that eoieo way suggests the wearer." It is not worth while to further analyze this indecent exhibition, and it would be pleasant to faston the blame for it on the man from whose impervious sides so many blows of public scorn havo harmlessly rebounded. Unfortunately such a disposition of responsibility is unsatisfactory, and the question remains To what sort of culture are our American women subjeoted, when such shameless affronts to modesty as the record of the Ames Butler nuptials and tho supplementary publication above referred to, far from covering young brides and their mothers with confusion, actually delight them But from every extreme outrage ono cau turn for comfort to tho inevitable reaction. Tho time is surely at hand when decent people shall resolve that their weddings and funerals shall be, what social custom should always mako them, private family affairs. FENIANS FOR FRANCE. faceting of the Fenians at Gothic 11 all Last Evening Address The telegrams from Europe announcing the probability of England's embroilment in battle, hove aroused oar Irish fellow citizens of Fenian proclivities to a high pitch of excitement, and tbe hopes of au accepted time and an opportunity for striking a heavy and telling blow for Ireland's redemption, and already the "faclicns" arc gathering and picking their flints and grinding their gladii for a bold break at the British bCDBt.

Last night a goodly number of Irishmen of the "Legion of St. Patrick," an organization of considerable extent and atrength, gathered at Qotbio Hall, on Adams street, in response to a Blient signal sounded from mm to man, to consider matters relating, to Ireland's coming opportunity. The "Legion" numbers about 5,000 men, moro or Icbb, distributed in the three Cities of Brooklyn, New York and Jersey City. Those present last night were "details" or representatives from the military branches of the "Tara" and "Erin's Hope" circles of this cily, the former body numbering about eighty five and tbe latter, a recent formation, numbering thirty odd. The men wero all IN T7NIFOBM, grren coats and blue trousers, and black cocked hats adorned with plumes, and tho initials S.

in front. Only tho officers bore weapons at their sides. A trifle more of instruction in the disposing of their sabers was needed in their caso. After some delay the men were formed in a long line through the center of the ball room or tbe hall, by Major Brown and Adjutant M'Dermott, and after a Bhort preliminary drill were addressed by MA JOE GENERAL of the I. B.

who served as a Brigadier in the Fedora service during the lale war. Silence having pervaded tbe ranks in verdure clad, the General spake as follows: "Comrades of the legion of St. Patrick, you have been called together in consequence of European complications, and in the expectation that tho telegraph will at. any moment bling the news (hat England is involved in war.

An inquest was held by Coroner Jones, last evening, on tho body of Mr.

T. Textcr, of Adelpbi street, who was reported by tho police of tbe Fourth Frecinot to have died of delirium tremens. Tbe inquest developed an altogether different state of affairs. On Monday Mr. Tcxler was proBl rated by tbe heat at Fulton ferry, and takon to the City Hospital, where he remained until Wednesday, when, appearing to have recovered, ho returned home.

On Thursday night he was attacked with insanity, and labored under the delusion that some person was trying to take bis life. At his own request be was taken to the Station House, where he appeared to be easier, and fell asleep Toward morning it was discovered that he was in a state of stupor, and a physlolau was sent for, but Mr. Tester died before the doctor arrived. The police were under the impression that the man was. suffering from delirium tremens, and therefore he did not recolye the attention that a man suffering from sunstroke should have bad.

Tbe most remarkable feature of the oase is tbat no one should have informed the police of the oause of biB insanity.

Tbis young man loved war as a soldier; tbe revolution as a thinner, ay nis verses ana nis musio, ne lightened the tedloufne'B of tne garrison.

BET. FULTON'S ORGAN. Bev. J. D.

Fulton, who brought himself into unpleasant not eritty by an assault on Charles Diokens, bas at last found an organ. Strange to say, it is not a paper of bis own denomination, the Baptfst, but the Reformed Intelligencer. It not only endorses Fulton and denounces Dickens, but attacks Robert Burns and Liberal Christianity. These are some of the things Fulton's organ says: The sickly religious sentimentaliMn which passos under ibe name of "Liberal Christianity," needs rebuke rather than encouragement. No sooial or other euormi ty is bo great but the sbield of tbis pseudo liberalism is invoked for Us extenuation or forgivenoas.

Charles Dickens was a living exemplar of these tendencies. That he will be apotheosized in time ia fully guaranteed the fact tbat Robert Burns haa become a eaint in whose annual festivals tho leading clergymen of the land take pleasure in presiding. The interests of society, however, demand that the truth in regard to Charles Dickens Bhould be made known, so tbat tbo influence of bis example Bhould be limited to its proper sphere. An inordinate vanitv and self conceit was his ruling motive. His domettic career, without tho slightest reference to the fuults of his wife, real or supposed, is indefensible.

There is abundant reason to believe thut Mr. Dickena early imbibed the idea, so prevalent in the aristocratic circles in Europe, that marriages of affection ore an evidence of weukucss and a uncial disqualification. It is known, also, that Mr. Dickons many years ago desired to go upon the stage, aud as wiveB are deemed a hindrance to dramatic success, a useless incumbrance among the clrcleB alluded to, he, with that eany adaptation uf mora'ity which his liberal Christianity permitted, desired to be rid of his wife. Nothing but "Liberal Christianity" can oovertho derelictions ot such a life Charles Diokens, at heart, lived for tbe corrupt and rotten aristocracy ot Europe, which be affeced to despite, in order more certaiuly to attain the position he really coveted, LONG ISLAND DIOOESE, The following are Bishop Littlejohu's appointments for to morrow A.

By and by will come more startling orlea of "Bloody battle between the French and ProoBhiana suicide of Napoleon." It will remind us of old times when we were in the war business, only it is none of our fight this time. We shan't be drafted, and we shan't have to pay the shot. But some of our fellow citizens of German descent seem very anxious to take a band in demolishing Napoleon. Their flrf of enthusiasm can only be kept from producing spontaneous combustion by pouring down torrents of lager. THE CONSUMPTION OF LAGER has become so great in consequence that a scarcity is apprehended and the brewers raised the price half a dollar a barrel.

Enough lager has been consumed since the war excitement began to float the Prussian navy. The brewers feel as lively as hops, and will all make fortunes if this enthusiasm holda out. Which I am afraid it won't, as the Germans are taking to holding mass meetings and passing resolutions, which will be tbe end of it, It will no doubt raise tbe enthusiasm of the Prussian army to the highest pitch to have read to them, "just before tho battle" a series of sympathetic resolutions passed at a mass meeting of German citizens of Brooklyn, held at Grautegein's Brooklyn Garden, signed B.

The hour has nearly arrivd it wants about fifty minutes of it. England must bo drawn Into tho vortox of the gigantic struggle. Several well informed Centres aro of that opinion derived from consultation with the stars and a olose study of history for tho past fortnight. In fact, England has got to go in and fight France, whether sbe wants to or not, as Ireland has waited long enough, and is not going to bo fooled any longer. Napoleon has been telegraphed to, and has oxproasod bis sympathy with tho Fenians.

The House of Hohenzollern has no royal youth of that sge.

In Germany all the Princes are kept at a marriage able age, so as to be ready for eligible offera and settlements in life. An idea occurred to me, which after a str ugglc with my paternal feelings I determined to offer. It was to offer tbe services of THBMISTOOLES to Prussia. It would bean opportunity for him to seo life. Having made up my mind to that end, I aent the following dispatch by cable.

Bbookltm, July 20. Count Von Bismarck'. Hearing that the Prince Imperial of France was aboat to take the field againBt your armies in the coming row on the Rhine, and knowing that all tho venerable Frederick William's boys were grown up, leaving you without a match of his own size for the flery young Nip, I in a neighborly way, and to testify tho friendship be tween Prussia and tho United States, offer you tho services in a mibtary rapacity of my son Themistoclcs. He is nearly eleven years old, blonde, with blue eyes, and short hair, might pass for a German on account of the width of bis trousers. He Is quite expert on the velocipede (three wheeler), and has shown the proper genius for war through one of its distinguishing traits, the art of dostruotiveness, (chiefly in windows and trousers).

Having celebrated several Fourth of Julys ho is seasoned to the smell of gunpowder and the din of bat tits. With some careful person to look after bim I have no doubt he would get along well enough and be a groat acquisition to tho Prussian army. Yours for Germany, Cobby O'Lanus. bismabck's beplv.

It waa no use offering his services to Napoloon, he would be afraid a smart boy like Tbomistooles might do something brilliant, astonish France, and eclipse the popularity of the young Prince.

I wouldn't bo sure of Themistocles myself. So I concluded not to make any further offer of his services. I don't (hink Mrs. O'Lanus would let him go anyhow. THE SITUATION.

If you want any fresh war news at any time send to me. I know all about it. I have got a map and a guido book and a catalogue of both armies, and the names of all the genorals. At present a great battle is not to be looked for bofore it happens. The Prussian army is concentrating at a point.

The French army is concentrating at another point. TheBO two points are eighty miles apart. Now until the Prussians move toward tho French, the French move toward the Prussians, or they simultaneously movo toward each other, and koep moving until they come within shot of each other, thoro won't bo any fighting.

Til la Paper lias tlie Largest Circulation of any Eveniuff Paper published in tbe rnitcd States.

Its value aa an Advertising JHcdinm is therefore apparent. The Wmcr supply of Brooklyn. Notwithstanding the exceptionally dry season, the water supply of the city has as yet suffered no diminution appreciable by the public at largo. Last year, while Philadelphia suffered from a fuilure of its water supply, and while New York even was apprehensive, Brooklyn suffered no embarrassment, and little anxiety was tolt by those control of our water woiks. The truth is, that up to the capacity of the source of our supply, now under contribution, Brooklyn has the most reliable water supply of any city in the Union.

"When a scarciety comes, if it ever come, it will have been foreseen and can be easily guarded against. The problem is very simple. The summer supply of the ponds from ivhich the water used in Brooklyn is now drawn, is, in round numbers, twenty millions. As soon as the summer consumption greatly exceeds this amount we must take in other ponds, or store so much of the winter, or maximum product of the ponds, as will get us over the period when the ponds are at the lowest and the consumption at its highest. The latter plan has been adopted by the Water Board, and has been endorsed by the Board of Aldermen.

is the most direct, the most feasible and the cheapest. There is no time to be lost in carrying it out. We have called the minimum supply of the ponds "the Summor supply'' the ponds are not at their lowest in midsummer. The effects of the dry season are most s.ensibly felt towards its close. If it were not so, tho supply of water for Brooklyn would be inadequate to day.

The supply fully justifies the guaiantees given us by the engineers by whom the works were constructed. It is good for twenty millions at all seasons. But Jho population has increased in a ratio never comtemplated, and for our population twenty millions of gallons of water daiiyis not a sufficient supply. It may not be generally knonn that for several days during the past week (he Ridge wood engines have pumped into the Reservoir nearly thirty millions of gallons. If this present torrid weather continued until the minimum supplv of the ponds was reached, we would be brought face to face with what would be accepted as a calamity a scarcity of water.

According to the estimate cf the euginesr of the water works in his last report, the rate of consumption is now fifty gallons per diem for each inhabitant of the city if we apply this rato to the estimated population in 1875, it will give an average daily consumption for that year of 25,034,800 gallons, and applied to 18S0, an average for that year of 31,318,500 gallons daily. But this rate of consumption per head must be expected to increase. In New York it exceeds considerably sixty U. S. gallons per head now, and if manufactories continue to increase in Brooklyn, as in the nature of things it seems certain that they will, and if the wharv ing facilities become more and more densely occupied, the rate of consumption must bs expected to rise to sixty gallons in this city, bearing in mmd that a much higher pressure of water prevails here thau in New York.

The plan adopted by the Water Commissioners, and approved by the Board of Aldermen contemplates the storage of one thousand million gallons of water, in Hempstead Valley, the product of the overflow of the ponds when at their highest, to be drawn upon when the ponds reach their minumum supply, of twenty million gallons daily. Of the existing ponds, over and above their Summer flow, the available pondage is limited to 57,595,000 gallons. This under the usual Summer drought, would meet a deficiency of ten million gallons for but five days, or, other words, it would meet a consumption of ten million gallons above the ponds' Summer supply for that period, It is true this reserve is supplemented by the supply in the Eidgewood Keservoir. One hundred and sixty miilion gallons can be stored then. This, with the fifty seven million gallons stored in the ponds, would, when the consumption reaches thirty million gallons daily, meet the deficiency between the Summer flow of twenty millions and a daily consumption of thirty millions but for ten days.

But the supply in the Eidgewood Keservoir is not designed to meet such an emergency as this, but rather to guard against tbe consequences of accident to the engines, or of any serious break on the line of tbe conduit. In counting either the ponds or the resevoir to make good an excess in the demand over the supply, we must take the chances that both the ponds and the resevoirs are full when their aid is required. The plan adopted by the Water Commissioners contemplates, as we have said, the erection of an immense resorvoir what is known as the Hempstead Valley. Under their estimate the land can be purchased and the resorvoir constructed for about $1,400,000. This work cannot be completed within a le3s period than two years.

When completed it will insure Brooklyn thirty million gallons of water daily. In oiher words it will add fifty per cent to the present supply, at about a sixth of the original cost of the water works. The plan is deserving of approval because it is the cb.pa.pest, the most certain in its results, and the one that can be most speedily perfected. In commencing it there is not a day to be lost. The suggestion, to supply a deficiency of ten million gallions daily, by increasing the capacity of the Eidgewood Keservoir, fails to meet the case for the simple reason, that the shape and present uses of the grounds surrounding tho reservoir utterly forbid the idea of building a reservoir anything like tho dimensions required in that vicinity.

It could not" be done as cheaply for the land is more valuable. It would not be as permanent or as safe, for in the one case there is a natural valley, and in the other the work would bo entirely artificial. Again, the water would not be so pure. In the one case a running stream would be impounded in the other a measurably still body of wator would be collected. This subject is now before the Mayor for his approval.

We are of opinion that it should have it, for the reason that all conceivable projects for meeting a deficiency of supply or rather the ever increasing wants of au evergrowing city have been studied by professional men, second to none in the country, for their experience and skill. Col. Adams, the Engineer of the Water Works, stands high in his profession. Mr. Kirkwood, who was the engineer employed to construct the present water works, and who is noted alike for his experience, his caution and his skill, have both pronounced in favor of the storage at Hempstead Valley.

The question is a professional one, and it seems to us best to accept the decision ot men who havo spent a iifetime in the examination and decision of sucb questions, rather than the opinion of men who have spent their lives in other avocalions, and to whom it is no discredit to say that of this business they know nothing. If the policy of obstruction should be attempted in this ease, it will not bo difficult to antagonize the opinion of experts, and to cast a doubt, by parading the opinion of those wno have selfish ends in view, on what seems to us to be the true policy for tho city. Senator Fenton did a manly and a useful deed yesterday, which showed him in a better light than if he had added another to his miny smart political tricks. A big dog, running by a email boy, pushed him into a pond at Babylon. The Senator happened to be the only man near by, and he jumped into the water, without stopping to lay aside any of his dress, and rescued the child.

The ill natured may remark on tho oddity that from so remote a place, and with no spectator by, the news should get into every one of the New York papers next morning with statements as to the depth of water and swift ness of enrrent, ifttber at variance with ordinary experience of Long Island ponis. But still, after making all allowances for who the reporter of the incident may be, and his desire to make the most of the rescue, it was a meritorious and beneficial deed, and one which the recording angel doubtless passed to the ex Governor's credit, as a set off against sundry black marks earned by him in bis devious pursuit of Political and personal aggrandizement. The Words, Histories, and Authors of The German Fatherland," and "The Marseillaise," Somebody onoe said "Let mo write the ballads of a nation and I do not care who makes the laws." The probability is the fellow could not have written a ballad to save bis life. The philosophy of his statement, however, was to thiB effect: tbat national songs in times are greater and stronger than the most elaborate or vigorous statutes. Moreover, there iB poetry in every patiiot; rather, an intogral element of all patriotism itself is the poetical element.

We all remember in the spasm of loyalty that swept over both sections, bow tho "Bonnie Blue Flag" and the "Star Bpangled Banner" made volunteering spontaneous and conscription comfortable until tho front was roaohod It has been submitted that the United States has no' national Bong par excellence. BuriDg the emotional flush of the war a gravo and reverend Committee of dry goods men and sugar sellers was constituted. They offered a "reward" or the bost national song. Nobody ever received the "reword." A. J.

H. H. Djganne, and the like, sent in reams of verses. The etherial lire was in none of them. The fools on the Committee and their money were not parted for once.

It never seemed lo enter the bard heads of the Committee, nor has it entered the heads of many others, that America has Indeed no one national song, but America has plenty of national songs. The "Star Spangled Banner," "flail Columbia," "Bally 'Bound tho Flag," "Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean," and "Yankeo Doodle" are all available. They produce and interpret emotion. That is the end of all lyrical writing. To boil down or pad out their sentiment into one song would be a violation of the idioms of our patriotism.

Each of them stands for somo one Bection. Each in the composite concern which an American army Is, answera to each Bectional characteristic of tho forces. All, together, or In succession, tbey do for the whole army. Au attempt to buy a national song was the height of folly. Ours have been born out of great excitement aud crises, or have grown up as imperceptibly among us as the prinjiples of the common law.

But we have less to do with our own iilentiful supply of songs than with the present NATIONAL AIBS OF FBANOE AND PBUSSIA. Airs that are being sung in crowded citie3 and in denser camps airs tbat are inspiriting the soldlors to volunteer, and which are cheering them on the way. Airs tbat meet them in the camp the land bubbliug with song. Tbe miles made vocal with music. The other night at the German mass meeting at Stoin wsy Hall a trained choir struck up, "Wnichis the German's Fatherland." The papers say that the effect was electric.

The massed thousands "Joined in tho Tears streamed down a thousand laces. Old and young embraced with an enthusiasm more like their adversaries' nature thau their own. Since that time every bas been bumming sections of the song. It baa in German minds displaced the presenco of, or has rather expressed all other sentiments.

The massiveness of these words will charm every mind which thinks and fceld. There is at ouce a circumstantiality and a rapid, comprehensive generalism in tbe verses that make them applicable to every one of the odd hundred German States. (Local to thorn all, uniformly relerring to thtm all including all and magni, lying none, the words gather themselves as the Amazon its tributaries, and in the fiual stanzas rush out fn total, not separate, "Germanism." The gradual cumulative, characteristic character of the stanzas, every one of them an accent, and the whole a perfect unit, cannot be too much admired. We believe this is the first publication of them outside of the No American who reads the words will fail to appreciate tbeir piwer.

Little is known of the circumstances of the compositien of the cong. It bas only a private history. Like all great German expressions it was born in silence and evolved out of "inner consciousness." As much as we gather of the author is as follows: THB ATJTHOE OF THE GEEMAN NATIONAL HYMN. Ernst MoritzArndt was born December 26th, 1769. at Schoritz, in Rugen.

Toward the end of the last oentury he distinguished himself as a traveler, and by his works on Sweden, Italy, France, Germany, Hungary, In 1800 he was appointed Professor Extraordinary of Philosophy at Grafswald. He was a vehement loverof liberty, and though at first a favorer of Napoleon, became one of Mb bitterest opponents so soon as ho comprehended his designs of conquest. His "Spirit of the Age" went through several editions. Tbe attention it excited by tbo boldness of its attacks on Bonaparte compelled Arndt to fly to Stockholm, whence he wag unahlo to return till 1813. His writings, which flowed in rapid succession from his indefatigable pen, made a profound impression of popular feeling.

They served, it is estimated, more lhan any other cause, to keep alive the German hatred of French domination that stimulated tho warof liberation. In ISIS, Arndt was appointed Professor of History in ibe University of Bonn but the very next year the inquiry into "Demagogical Intrigues" was said to have implicated Mm. He was out of the public employment ill 1820, when he was reinstated. His popular poems and war songs, of which the one given is at once he most martial and popular, wero pub lithed at Frankfurt in 1615 aud at Loiosic in OHATJNT DE GUEBBE DE l'ABMEE DTJ EHIN. "How absolute the knave is." Hamlet's comment on tbo Gravediggcr applies with equal, though altered force, to tbe Emperor of tho French.

Till recently he has Interdicted "The Marseillaise." Eveuts have, bowever, proved too strong for him. Americans can hardly conceive how a song, which every Frenchman knows and sings and loves, could be interdicted. "They do such things, however, differently in France." And till the national movement just wrought into war had broken out, it was sung under duress. Mow the news is that it is ''permitted." Toe next dispatch was that every no was singing it. Madame Sass, her sentiments ns flexible as her soprano, sung it the other night.

The audience roce to a man and recalled her, singing it each time with her. Tbe band plays it at the Tuileries. The ermy near Saatbach (nr somewhere else, neither we nor tbe Cable knows) 1b singing it. France is Binging it en masse. Here it is THB MABSEILLAISH.

Come, children of your country, come, New glory duwne upon tho world, Our tj rants, rushing to their doom, Their bloody standard have unfurled Already on our plains we hear Tho murmurs of a savage horde They threaten with tbe murderous sword Your comrades and your children dear. Then un and form your ranks, the hireline; toe witl stand, March on his craven blood must fertilize the laud.

And hero In better words than we oan frame ia the history of it: THE HISTORY OF THE MABBEILLAISE.

On tbe 80th of July, 1792, the Marseillaises arrived at PoriB, wbitber tbey bad been invited by Barbaroux at tbe instance ot Madame Boland, Fne seo et motive of their march," says do Lamartino. "was to intimidate any part of the United States. But Governor Holden remains obdurate equally to the representations of private citizens and of his associates in the State Government, and persists in letting loose "Kirk's lambs," who are arresting, imprisoning and plundering citizens, and keeping up a perfect reign of terror. There was one "Col. Kirke" who figured in the Monmouth rebellion, in English history, whose scoundrelly oppressions of peaceable people made the name of Kirk eternally infamous.

This North Carolina agent of the loyal Governor Holden seems determined to earn anew the disgrace of a patronymic which is in itself a misfortune. The explanation of his and Holden's conduct simply is, that next month there is aa election in North Carolina, and the rival Congressional candidates were stumping the counties which Kirk now dominates and persecutes. The endeavor is to terroriso the people into voting for the Radical party or, by exciting them to resistance, create at last the "insurrection" they have already alleged to exist, and thus vitiate or postpone the election. It is for the sake of a miserable partisan advantage a seat or two in Congress for the Radical party that the inhabitants of whole counties in North Carolina are suffering ravages and outrages like those to which the rival ambitions of Napoleon and Bismarck are subjecting the people of the Rhine frontier. When are the bitter memories and sullen hatreds of the war to die out of Southern hearts, if at as late a period as this Holden and Kirk are still suffered to harry and worry the people in the partisan interest of the Republican political organization If Kirk's cruelties fail to excite the people to open resistance, there will be all the more of concentrated feeling of revenge and animosity buried in their inmost consciousness, and transmitted to their descendants, to be reproduced, perhaps centuries hereafter, as the mutual antipathies of Orangemen and Ribbonmen have just been, in murderous conflict.

If General Grant cannot "let us have peace" in Cuba, at least he may make good his vaunted words by effectually snubbing Governor Holden and his man Kirk. A word from him would do it, for it is in the service of the party of which the President is as yet the recognised if not truste head, that these wioked fooleries and tyrannies in North Carolina are being carried on. Ice. It is consoling to be assured that the ice monopolists have reached the limits of their exactions, and that there will be no further advance in the price of their merchandise. Also that there is ice enough on hand to last through the Summer, unless the term should be protracted late into August.

We have had two unusually severe heated terms, which have drawn heavily on the stock of ice. Before these unexpected drafts upon their supply occurred the ice men asserted that the stock on hand was barely sufficient to supply the ordinary demand, and on this pretence the prices were raised to an exorbitant figuie. After the olose of the two hottest spells of weather we are likely to have this Summer, the ice man now coolly inform us that they have got plenty of ice for the rest of the season. The prices, however, ore to be kept at the same famine figures. The Shooting op Soannel.

The verdict arrived at out of the conflicting evidence as to who shot Alderman Florence Scannel, was that the murderer was Donahue, the keeper of the liquor store where the affray oocurred, and member of tho Americus Crab. The witnesses appear to have sworn according to their partisan predilections every Young Democrat indicating Donahue to be the shooter, and every Tammany ite deposing that he wa3 not. The inquiry commenced with a contest between the Tammany and anti Tammany coroners, whioh should hold the inquest, and proceeded, apparently, with a struggle between the respective partisans among the witnesses, as to which should swear the hardest. Tho long sorios of victories of tho Harvard crow was broken yestorday by the Yale crew aotuall coming in first, although the race was awarJed to the former on the technicality of a foul. Suoh a result can hardly be satisfactory to either side.

The University match occasioned much less thin the usual excitement this year. Tlioro are special reasons, in the interest of other topic3, for tho comparative popular indifference, or it mijhfc bo gkdly welcomed as a sign that the period of th3 apotheosis of muscle ia happily at an end. Tho World commends tho presence of tho PiuPsian Minister, Baron Gerolt, at tho funoral of the late French Minister, Prevost Paradol, "as creditable to his country as to himsolf." The fact that Prussia is at odds with Franco did not prevent tho Baron's gentlemanly courtesy to hU late associato in tho Diplomatic Corps. Thero is here a wholesome rebuke for the American partisan which finds it impossible to conduct political discussion without a resort to indecontani brutal personalities whioh would disgrace a community of savages. The TYibune has a special war correspondent who takes pains to telegraph that tho German army, if victorious, will march to Paris." Why did ho not add that tho French army, if victorious, will march to Berlin? Ono assertion is as easily made as the other and both are purely spesula tivo.

The conclusion, with tho conditional and virtuous "if," is so obvious and apt that it might bo readily announced from Printing Hou30 Bquare, without incurring costly cable charges. When, if ever, will war telegrams convoy facts instead of rumors, conjectures and platitudes Thoro is much refreshment in tho coolness of Prim's nation which, after doing its feeble best to promote war between Franco and Prussia, now positively declines to accept any share in its em barrasKments and responsibilities. Spain refuses to ally herself with tho Emperor she will havo nothing to do with King William; individual efforts in Madrid to oxcito sympathy with oithor side are discouraged; and tho kinglo38 monarchy is firm in its neutrality. If Spain wore any longor sensible to mortification sho would find abundant cause for humiliation in tho fact that only hor conceded insignificance onahlos her to keep out of tho fight. Tourists "doing" Strasburg aro deprived of ono of tho curiosities which no diligont followor of tho guido book haB hitherto missed.

Tho view from the ateoplo of tho cathedral has boon to tho traveler aa indispensable a sensation as a view from Trinity spiro to tho Now York visitor from tho rural districts. It is now temporarily cut off, and no strangers aro allowed to ascend, bacaiue tho movements of tho French and Pus3ian forces aro plainly visible from the ecclasiastical elevation. This order is greatly grievous to newspaper correspondents who, in spite of official viilauco, may bo pursuing knowledge in tho neighborhood. Solomon Andrews has caught something of the "arrogance" which is said to bo dovelopol by tho European Powors on the borders of tho Rhino. Solomon is Iloalth Officer of Perth Amboy and puts certain categorical questions to Dra.

Cochran and Carnoohan, touching thoir action in quarantine matters, in an offenBivo uot to say insulting way. He addresses thorn with mush blister, tolling them to "be particular" about their answers, which he threatens to "transmit to tho Governor of New Jorsey." The inference i3 that, if explanation and apology be not promptly forthcoming, Now Jersoy will instantly declare war against tho State of Now York. Now, it is well for Jersey to stand firmly on hor dignity and, if need bs, defy a world in arms, but were Solomon half as wiso as his namesake he would know that his tone is indiscroot, undiplomatic, and llkoly to defeat instead of accomplishing his purpose. If Dib. Cochran and Carnochan were prepared to adopt the style of Solomon, they would reply to him in the words of Conrade to Dogberry: "Away! you are an ass, you are an ass." After twelve respites justico finally overtook James Jeter Phillips, who was hanged at Richmond yesterday for the murder of his wife in February, 1869.

That tho killing was an unusually cold blooded affair was proved, not only by the evidence on the trial, but by tho equally coldblooded confession of the culprit, read on the scaffold. The woman had givea hor husbani no provocation; she did not even ot3tru2t hia path to tbe gratification of another passion; he was cutor oi the Cburch of God. His partisanship, too slow uud stupid to avail, oa3ts discredit on auv cause it Btip poils. England, as ruled by German princes, iuld, naturally, lake pun with tbe kinsfolk ol us ruliog house. Bui, as "a nutiou of shop keepers," it will ply itB irauoat tbe expense ol all tbe combatants.

The talk of Frauce withdrawins her fla2. and her lit tle contingent of soIdietB, irom Rome, ia nonsense. Napoleon HI. bas far moro need ot ibe Pjpe than tbo Pope bus of him. In its moral influence, tho French guurdiunsbip ot Rome is worth to Frauce a quarter ol a million ot tiaiued soldiers.

Wuy, then, dots France insult, aud hamper, the Holy Father 7 Foolisu rulers uf Frauce 1 The larKO numbor of Prussians, in this country, are deuiroUB ol making a demonstration, to shJw that tbe sympathies of Amencjns are with PruSBia. They had better desist. So sure as "demonstrations" are attempted on this soil, it will bo shown that Americans do not loiget inat lrrauce waa tno emcieut ally, by whose aid our erandfutbers achieved our indeoeudou.e. We object to uny demonttatfons, French or Prusbian. If tbe PiUbsians insist on anything of tbe kind, on tbis soil, tbat ouubt to be neutral and impartially friendly to both poweis tbey will greatly defeat their purpose.

It loi ceu to take siues, Americans, at larce, will uo fur Fiance. Tbe Christian InUUigencer, Reformed organ, por trays Ibe honors of war, denounces the ambitious schemes of Napoleon and BismarcK, and takes comfort iu the tin ught tbat wrath is iu reserve for them. The following are specimen sentences: Tbe war which bas bo suadenly burst upon tho Continent of Europe is a disgrace lo civilization. Tbe eoie provocation Is jealousy, aggravated by wounded prido. Tbe darkest stigma which has ever attached itself to the reputation of Louis Napoleon is bis busty, needless, passionate commencement uf hos tilities.

For years past tbe two leading statesmen of tho Continent have been plajiug diplomu'ic game, aud the prize at stake haB been the control of Europe. Tbey are both skill ui, and tbey are botb unprincipled. Kujlb aud emperors who ate ureed on bv ambition or lnBt oi power, cannot, in this age, trifle with tho lives of huociied thousands oi tbeir subjects witbout incurring tbe condemnation of tbe civilized world, and what is more terriblo, the wrath of Jehovah. The nicked men who huve embroiled nations in war, and filled tbe land with untimely graves, will be known ss tbe scourgera of the race and the pests of tbo age wbich the enrsed. The Evangelist, Presbyterian organ, hints at the ful fillment of prophecy, and takes comfort in the reflection that liberty, justice and truth will triumph in tho end.

After revfewing the situation it says: With such views of the origin of the war, our sym pathies are wholly with Prussia as tho paiiy. Fiance is tbe assailant. The miser? of it oil is tbat it is not thesuiltv monarch alone who suffers, but tbe thousands of poor soldiers who are driven line cattle to tbe slaughter. To tbe poor peasants of France and of Germany war means increased taxes and greater poveriy. Tbe Christian Leader, Universalist organ, says that "no great principle justifies the conflict," that "it does not matter much which party is victor," and that "it is a wicked war." The Methodist aad Christian Advocate, organ? of the M.

E. Church, sympathize strongly with Prussia. TUe last named paper assails Napoleon in unmeasured terms, charges him witb provoking tho war, and BayB: Jie.t merdy tbe rf membrauce of Mexici, not merely tho lact that we aro essentklly a Teutonic people, (botb by our colonial fathers and nearly hall of our immiura imaiur tue last quarter ot a century,) nor Oecuu aie eeuerully P.oteslauts, do we sympathise with Prussia but bi cause we are Christian freemen, and believe in tbe inviolability of moral law in government. Tbe Independent, tbe organ of 7, calls the conflict "a war for whim," remarks severely on "the stately illain who governs Frauce," and asks, "when will Heaven rid the earth of the last vestigo of tho Bona parts?" The question is left unanswered. SPORTS AND PASTIMES.

Yet the thing has been done; moBt of our leadiua clubs have taken trips of four weeks and over, altboagii only one has dared cross tbe Piilns and iuvade the rich soil of the modern El Dorado.

Prior to 8ixly 8even no club had ever made an extended trip. Tho Excelsiors during Sixty went back as far as Buffalo, which waB tbon considered a big an enterprise requiring great nerve. During Sixty Four tbe Atlantic's' went to Rochester to meet the Youn Canadians, of WoodBtock, CauodaWest. This club having beattn evcrythiug in the wuy of base ball iu tbeic native country, grew ambi'ious, and determined to ohal lejge ibe "Champion" Atlantic's to play tbem for the "Cuampionship ol America." Brooklyn, no ways unwilling, went to Rochester and took the conceit out oi Canada at tho rate of 75 to 11. Occasionally, olubs would go to Washington, Philadelphia or Bostou, thinking tbey bad done well to go as far as that.

But when sixty seven came, tbo Nationals, a rising young club of Washington, whose officers stood htgu iu office at the Capitol, having accumulated a nine from all parts of tbe country determined to give tbem practioo, and at tbe same time extend the game by a grand tour miougbout tbe we Bt. Having so power! ul a team, including Frank Norton, Billy Williams, George Fletcher, George Wright. George Fox, Ed. Smith, Ed. Parker, Harry Benhrong, Vul.

BobiuBon, Henry McLean and Sludley, tbey well knew they could ouiflig any ciub tbey contended with, aud by practicing all, place each ono in bis regular position and mane all act as a unit. Arriving at Cincinnati they encountered the ings, then a young club having only Harry Wtiaut of tbeir present team among tbem. Tue Nationals almost annihilated them by to 10. JSvui lliiutr went smoothly till they came to Chica gQ, where tbey encountered the Forest City Club of locklord, a village situated iu the northern part of Illinois, and, Btrauge to relate, the money nine hud to luwtr their colore to thiscountry Club. Ibis was their only defeat und cau bo classed as an accidental one.

This trip seems to have excited other clubs to follow their example, the Athletics, Atlantics, unions una itea etocKings, making the grand round, 'i be Athletics started Westward. uunanurin every thing in their way (the Reds by 21 to 13, aud the Forest Cily by the extraordinary Bcoro of 91 to 13) till they came to Rochester, where they ran foul of the Excel siorB of that place, and got defeated by 2D to 20, Patsy Hoy, now with lho Nationals, of Washington, bein" the pltcber.
