every demo cratic voter the election passed offqui ctly unlil about five o'clock iu the after noon when a difficulty arose between ii young man named 8 r p lawrence and a negro the engaged in a

bedied instantly a bhot fired by the negroes struck a young man son of mr green johnson who was sitting near the bank and who had taken no part in the affair killing him instantly w ii hawkins white was seriously wounded and matt rradehaw while had his throat cut with a ball about one iiokcii ! white men were engaged iu the difficulty several others besides the above named wen slightly injured two negroes were mortally wounded and have since died and eight or ten others were wounded — the whiles were armed only with pistols at least five hundred shots were fired — the negroes then retreated towards the suburbs ofthe town when the peaceably disposed citizens interfered nnd quelled the disturbance and placed a strong guard over the town the most intense excite ment prevailed and the bloody riot was very nearly renewed on tuesday by tin attempt of young hawkins to shoot a ne gro named snend whom lie accused of having killed lawrence the negro seiz ed the pistol just ns hawkins wns about

correspondent having suggested that americans sympathize with prussia the president ic*)lied : yes 1 don't know but what we do — our sympathy is tlie result of commerce i german emigration arid because tho ger mans look our bonds mid stood willi us during our war france didn't like king william nnd bismarck sent three tele grams of congratulation tons not one came from napoloon who on the contra iy was ut tbo time hilling us siy dabs in mexico howard lot him hit because his nrmy was all llie time eating up the beef and tanning the bides which otherwise would have gotten into the rebel

think these french fellows are much on tlie starve-out pro i cess they're too fast ; nnd here prussia has the inside track correspondent : what will be the pro bable strategy ofthe prussian army ? general grant it will undoubtedly remain strictly on the defensive the prussians are now whore the austrinns were during the last war they will find defending themselves agninst the french far different from conqueriug aus tria the victory of konniggratz was won without a prussian quartermaster's department — without even a base of sup plies they started like general pope wiih hoadqnartcrb and hindquarters in tho saddle this strategy is only safe with victory it would have been as disas irons with king william at konniggratz as it was with general popo at centre villi had ho met with a repulse the austrian campaign was successful but it would nut do for king william to fighl ; ihe french in this way llo must stand still entrench j and the french must , dig him out out or work in the roar — ' spades will be trumps again as at vicks , burg there is a sinking analogy be ! tween the french nnd prussian armies ■and llie old union and rebel armies if ; i she tiikes the nggressive

turns out at home — -»^_»* the press on the military situation in europe there has been hesitancy and lack of nerve in the opening of the campaign on the side of the french due in great meas ure no doubt to the wr.tehed health of tho emperor bnt also to tho fact that in early life although a professed student of the art of war he did not have un oppor tunity to acquire pructical knowledge of the handling of troops lie must have available the right men into whose hands to give tho command as a statesman he will not be slow to recognize the ne cessity for that course and act upon it the curtain has merely risen upon the theatre of war and wo huve not seen enough to authorise any ono to suppose that the french are doomed to certain and signal defeat in this contest witli prussia — n y world franco cannot consent to peace while she still lias resources sufficient to restore the honor of her anus ; and prussia can not consent until ho enemy who has so rashly provoked her to the field shall be deprived for llio present at least of tlie power again to disturb the repose of eu rope tho war will doubtless go on ; but such victories as those of sunday show ) that there is after all a possibility of its i being made a short war another blow like this aud the danger that all tho other powers of europe may be involved in llie struggle will be greatly diminished if not removed altogether — n y sun tho extrication of mcmahon from his present isolated position and a success in front of met would place tho combat ants onco more on a footing comparative ly equal and open a new and perhaps a long campaign ; but us affairs now stand tlio future is black with omens of danger v t tribune a victory was scarcely expected for prussia at this stage of the campaign und its moral effect iu arousing the enthusi asm of all tho german people to make even greater efforts than heretofore for the realization of the great idea of a free and united germany can scarcely be esti ffiitfia j/il^fu y^wehf^vfwi'l i\!mtj luttl equanimity ; and if tliis victory is but the precursor of others even more glorious the world expects that the conquerors shall take the lead in freeing europe from tlic fetters of feudalism that still bind its people and become the champion of lib erty — philadelphia enquirer judging from present indications the war promises to result in a speedy humil iation of the french government and in a dethronement of the napoleonic dynas ty forever the career ol this remarka ble family seems to be coining to a close even if the prussians do not succeed in occupying paris the loss of prestige of the empire will react terribly against it the most important consequences aro ul ready looming up among the possibilities dependent upon the success of the ger man cause — philadelphia press the election in north car olina the returns indicate conclusively that the democrats have carried nortli caro lina by a large majority they have in sured the election of a democratic united stales senator in tlie place of senator abbott whose term expires on the 4th of march next and live of tbe seven mem bers of congress in 1 fads the state gave grant over twelve thousand majority and it is now estimated ihut the democratic majority in the recent canvass will reach nearly ten thousand it is not difficult to account for so mark ed a change in political sentiment in north arolinn when we consider the tactics which have been pursued by those who have been iu control ns the repre sentatives of the republican party the policy adopted by gov

a mobt noble act on the part of mr vanderbilt aud long after tho bronze statue over the hudson river railroad depot may have been melted down to make other monuments history will perpetuate the fact that cornelius vanderbilt gave a church to a congrega tion representing no sect but the largo and catholic religion of jesus christ where wood comes from if wc were to take up a handful of soil and oxnmine it under tho microscope we should probably find it to contain a num ber of fragments of wood small broken pieces of the branches or leaves or other parts of tho tree if we could examine it examine ii chemically we should find yet more strikingly that it was nearly the same as wood in its composition per | haps then it may be said that the young plant obtains its wood from the earlh in which it grows the following experi ment will show whether this conjecture is likely to be correct or nol two hun dred pounds of earth were dried in an oven and afterwards put into a large earthen vessel ; the earth was then mois tened with rain wather and a willow tree weighing five pounds was planted there in 1 hiring tlie space of five years tho earth was carefully watered with rain wa ter or pure water tho willow grew and flourished and to prevent the earth being mixed wiih fresh earth or dirt being blown upon it by tlie winds it was cov ered with a metal paste full of very mi l nuto holes which would exclude every thing but air from getting access lo tl.o earlh below it alter growing in tho earth for five years lie tree was remov ed and on beiug weighed was found to have gained ono hundred and sixty lbs and tills estimate did not include tho weight of tlic leaves or dead branches whicli ill five years fell from thn tree — now came the application of the test — was ull this obtained from the earth ? it had not sensibly diminished ; but in or i dor to mako thu experiment conclusive it was again dried iu an oven and put in llie balance astonishing the result — the earlh weighed only two ounces less lhan il did when the willow was first planted in i ! yet the tree hndgaincd 161 pounds manifestly then the wood thus gained in this spare of lime was not ob tained from llio earth *. we are therefore compelled to repeat our qui stinii : where does llie wood come from '.'" we are left with only two altei natives lhe water with which ii was refreshed or the air lu which it lived lt can bn shown thut il was not due to water ; wo are consequently una ble to resist the perplexing and woildci ful conclusion il wus derived irom tbo air life uf ti tree
