v. nrnniin lifo In .furm 1 ruf nl-ilicli tfmt , . in a IOrniai manner, ana mat none ot the preliminaries remaiocJ unsct'.iy-l save tl)c ! dote of meeting. It is a yiqnificar.t fact that Austria,Prussia end Italy, while ngrceinp: to be represented at this congress, are willing to make no concessions, save that they will not initiate hostilities before the action of the congress shall be concluded. They do not even arec to cease their preparations for war. Not ouly does each power continue to mobilize its forces, hut c:ioh announces thui early that it will not tolerate any interference by the congress with the j very questions upon whicn arc predicted the issues of the war. Italv will l.c satisficd with no coiielu-riun that fail.? to restore her Vcnetiaa possessions. Austria distinctly announces that r.o question will be entertained which includes a cession of Vcnctia to Italy. She likewise demands that the Schleswig-Holstein matter shall be sctt!cd by a convocation of the German states ; while Prussia announces that the - 1 congress must not discuss any affair rela ted to the interLal interests of dermaoy. It will thus be seen that the interested powers, in advance, decline any discussion upon the very issues involved in their press ent hostile attitude. How far a congress, in such a state of affairp, can be a success car. be easily seen by anyone. It is barely possible that seme sort uf an agreement may be patched up; but, at the outset, nothing seems more improbable. Any ar raiisrcrucut which might be concluded would become, before long, as inoperative as the celebrated trcatv of 18 lf. m With reference to this treat, and as having beiring upon the probable effect of one which may be constructed at the ap proaching Paris conference, it may be J stated that, of all the parties to the treaty of 1815, Sweden is the only one which ha's 1 . j , i , not violated it. Austria seized upon ( racovia, which by this treaty was designated as a free city. Great Jlritain turned over the Ionian islands to Greece, after having agreed in 1 S 1 " that they sliouM form n free and independent slate. iSpain viola ted the treaty of 1S15 in the restoration of Frederick VII. to absolute power, and again, not long since, in changing the order of lhc succession to the .Spauish throne, by which the principle of leiti I maey, insisted on nt Vienna, tv?.s overthrown. Franco has violated that portion of the treaty which forever e schul od the Eouapartc family from the throne of France, and again in the annexation of Savoy nnd Nice. Prussia has time and again violated the Vienna treaty from her participation in the absorption ofCracovia down to her attempt upon Holstein. Portugal and Jiuia have b:üi viuUnI either a principle involved in the Vienna treaty or else one nf iti direct conclusions; an.! these two powers complete tho list of those who were parties to the treaty, and who, with the exception of Sweden, have, at one time or another, been engaged in Us violation. These facts, together v;ith the present i hostile attitude oi three of the European power?, show the necessity of a reconstruction of the map of Kurope. That it will be done peaceably does not seem probable. Wc think that the business men of this country should confidently calculate upon a European war, and should shape their affairs according! v. 4 lruyor for Ex-Prrsiriciit IJirvis. Rev. S. W, Roc.Ens, of Memphis, rector of öt Lazarus Church (Episcopal) in that city, on Whit .Sunday, issued a pastoral letter to his congregation, which he exhorts them to oiler up the following pray er ''every night when you go to bed, and every morning as soon as you rise "Oh Cod! whose mercies are everlasting, and whose power is infinite, look down with pity and compassion upon Thy servant, whom thou hast laid in a place of darkness and the deep, (iive him always a sorrowful .ensc of his sins and cd' Thy fatherly love aud correction, (iive to his judges tenderness and compassion, and to him a meek and forgiving spirit toward all those who have oniiucd him. Raise us friends to pity, end relieve him. (iive him the continual comfort of Thy Holy Spirit, and so sanctify his afdietions that they may work for him an eternal weight of glory through the merits of Jesus Christ our Lord." Another clerical conflict for the car of the Judge of all tho Earth. Southern divines pray for the safety and deliverance cf Mr. Davis, while Northern divines pray for Iiis death by military or judicial violence. This wrestling in prayer one side for mercy and the other for vengeance will, we suppose, terminate sometime in October next. In the mean time let all watch over themselves, and pray to be for given their sins as they arc willing t At jrivo the trcsspas'os tj others. IlSCEOENATIOX IN WISCONSIN. Last Friday the usual quietness of our Main street was suddenly disturbed by tho arrival of two colored gentleman from Lake mills, with a white woman hanging on the arm of each. One couple was married, and acompanicd tho other for the purpose of being present at their bridal. Judging from the appearance of the unmarried couple, as they marched up through thctdrccU wc should think on this occasion, at least, true love really ran tmooth. They at once proceeded to the justice's office, followed by a crowd anxious to witness the ceremony, at which the woman seemed surprised, and inquired the reason of it, saying that when she married her first husband there were not so many present. 'Squire. Ducasse gave them a few words of advice aud declined the honor of tying the knot, when tho; woman declared sho would not marry a white man if sho had to travel 1,000 miles, at the same time tapping tho ebony cheek of her betrothed, and he approvingly uncovered his ivories. After scleral fruitless attcmptH to procure the services cfsomo proper individual, they lett saying somes thing about this being a copperhead town. IFrtfrrrotrn, ( JFi'..) Republican.

Tue Expedition to Xciv Mexico and Arizona. From the St. Louis Democrat, June 13. The expedition to the gold, silver and copper minci of New Mexico and Arizona, on the Gila river, is rapidly forminpr, to take its march across the plains. Tents and supplies were shipped from this city yesterday, to Topeka, on the Pacific railroad, where men have boon sent to establish a camp for tho outfiitting of teams, &c., preparatory to starting for the new Eldorado. A largo unmber of men are making their arrangements to join the ex pedition, and the company's om'ce in this city presents a lively mid business-like appcarauce. The company is regularly chartered, under the title of "The American Gila liivcr Mining company," and contracts to take men through to the mining districts for sums wholly inadequate to defray the expense of those emigrating in small parties.

loivn. The Fay cite Union sa)s that the warm weather and copious showers we have been having the past week arc bringing crops out finely. Wheat never looked better. Corn is making up for lost time. Every description of wild fruit known in that locality bid? fair to yield au extraordinary crop. Tho Independence liulletin says that accounts continue favorable in the main. Oats do not look so promising as could be desired in some portions of the country. The recent warm weather has helped corn along rapidly, and it is now looking well wherever good seed was planted. "Wheat looks well. The fight between Congress and the President, if there be a fight, is a curious j affair and will bear a deal of careful watching. Wc have never invested very largely in the stock of the political firm of Johns son, Seward and Co., and vre think on the whole wo shan't until after the dog davs. As Lord Chatham said on one occasion. "Confidence is a plant of slow growth ; " and wc have seen so many promising ''Democratic plants nipped by the first rude breath daring the past five years, that we prefer to wait for the bark to harden before wo hang any more hopes on these budding "conservatives." Our rule of faith is very simple. We believe no med icine can heal the woe? of this bewildered American people but a revival of the prin ciples of Jefiersonian Democracy, to which William II. Seward h the natural and j mortal enemy. Any man or men who are so enamored ot i:sii2ccss and so infatuated with "policy" as to strike hands with Sew ard, we respectfully decline to train with. Dem. ( L. ) Repu?5licans SSpiraaulln? Traitors. Tii"c Ag- says : It is proposed by the almirera of William Lloyd (Jarrison to present him with fiftv thousand dollars. Chief Justice Chase heads the list with a handsome subscription. (Jarrison is chiefly memorable as tho author of the sentiment "The Constitution of th; United States is a convenant with death and an agreement with hell." 3Fr. Chase's subscription may therefore be regarded as betokening his appreciation of the sacredness and value of the supreme law. lie talks of trying Jefferson Davis for treason. Wc suspect that the jury will bcbewildered to decide whether there is most of it on the bench or in tho dock. Coi.rAX. This trickstering, abolition, nigger representative in Congress from this district, is casting about for another nomination for Congress, lie pretends, hypocritiaelIy,thathc is very disinterested, that he would rather go to Europe, wiU ness the blandishments of foreign governments, and all the while he ha3 Iiis cmnii3saries through the district investigating his chances for re-election. This is Colfax all the time his selfishness and groveU ing hypocrisy without any manliims about h?m. If his friends tell him he can ba re-elected he will submit to n rcmomina tion ; and regarding his nigger, high tariff, high tax proclivities his open opposition to tho President aud his constitutional union policy we would rather he should be. the candidate of the radical disunionists than any other man. White County Democrat. The Martinsvillec Gazette, a bewilder ed country paper, is "surprised to see some of the soldiers, since they came home, acting and voting with the democratic party." There is nothing at all surprising in this, if the Gazette would only look at it in the proper light. The soldiers are simply voting as they fought to restore the Union, to sustain the administra tion, to discomfit tho crazy radicals who arc laboring to perpetuate the dissolution of the Uuion, in order that tho blessed nigger may 1'C invested with social aud political equality. The soldiers have learned, during their service, to distinguish between gold and pinchbeck, patriotism and plunder, cant aud conscience.

The sun during the day had been very v;arm, and thus they met to spend the fleeting hours of tw'i.ight, enjovin the pleasant breeze that floated up from the mafrnolia jraruen Uencatli, ana intcrchansring thoc soul-lodgings and the warm affections for each other. Seated near each other, the lovers sat ; with one arm he encircled the waist of the beautiful creature at his side. 'Ilerlittle hand lay gently, confidingly in his,'

After some parley, he came to the con clusion he could manage it by slipping out of his pants. Accordingly he asked of i his comnanion if shp nrmbf lnd him a mir ! of pants until he could go ho-ne.

"Only half an hour," said the physician, taking out his watch in abusiuess manner, and added, "is there any one you would like to lend lor a clergyman for instance ? " Old Roge nused in a lethargic way for a moment, and then started up as with a sudden thought, raised his feeble hand felt of his emaciated chin, upon which two weeks growth of gray and stubbed beard had urown, then whispered hurriedly "Quick bring mo bring me a barber.'' The barber came with his kit, aud old Roge said in a voice that was rapidly growing weaker : "You charge len cents to shave live men ? " "Yes, that is our price," replied the barber. "What you charge to shave dead men ? " One dollar," said the barber, wondering what he meant. "Then shave me quick," said old Doge, nervously eyeing the watch which the doctor held iu his hand.

The Texas Wheat Cnor. Dr. Cox, who has recently returned from an extensive tour in the wheat -growing regions of Texas, informs us that there never was a finer prospect in the world than at this time. He says that without some accident three times as much will be raised this year as was ever raised in one year before. Tn some county Collins, wc believe the Doctor says 500,000 bushels of wheat will be for sale. At the mills near Dallas, he was offered flour at 82 per hundred pounds. This is good news for flour lovers, as we hope that instead of it being worth 58 per hundred, we can soon buy it for $o Webern 7Vrvm

Tins i a natura: rcu- r; for ?. frmr askj l-ut "n answer is not always readily given. A man, with two or three years experience on a farm, r:-n determine preN ty nearly what crop is best suited to each action of it. so far as quantity or yield is concerned, but it k not so easy to decide what particular product will pay best in any particular year. Sometimes the potato crop is short and the price cf that product reaches a very high figure. The ucxl seoson each farmer doubles his quantity of potato ground, aud the result is a redua dant market and low prices. Then follows diminished production again, and so on, year in and year out. This is ore of tho annoyances of trade, and pertains to all callings, to a certain rxUnt. That farmer will probably succcd b?.-t who pursues a pcncrally uniform system diversifying " crops regularly, so that he may have something to sell of each class of products. whatever the ruling price of them in the market may be. Rural Xec YorJccr. The Washington TrrtxtixoiiY Females. It is slitcd that A. S. Mercer, Esq., of Washington Territory, who took a steamboat load of young women to a husband market on tha Pacific coast last fall, has writtcu back that the enterprise is a snccess and that he will repeat the experi ment next summer. It is to l e presumed then that the interesting cargo of femins inity reached its destination without utterly tearing each others' eyes out, and that the susceptible bachelors cf Washington Territory rushed eagerly to' the dock, provided with blank marriage licenses, duly authenticated, coutcting eaererlv for the first choice from among the lovoabh'S ; thus at la?t all of tho New England im port a, tion, even to tho ugliest and oldest, were at last disposed ; f and are now engaged in fryig slap-jsrks nnd sweeping cabins in the homes of the Pacific. We are glad to learn that the experiment has been sue cessful. Men greatly predominate on tho Pacific coast aud women in New England. If these countervailing disparities could bo removed at the same time by such projects as this, barring their apparently commcr cial character, the family relation, that great conservator of all the virtues, would be more common, end great good would result. Courage and Humanity. During the American war, a general of ficcr in the sarvico of the United States, advanced with a score of in on under th English batteries to reconnoiter their position. Tlis p.id de-camp, struck by a ball, foil at his side. The officers and orderly dragoons fled precipitately. The general, though under lire of the cannot, approached the wounded man to ee whether he had an signs of lifo reir.ainin it, or whether any help could be afforded him. Finding the wound had becu mortal, he turned bin eyes away with emotion, and plowly rejoined the group which had got out cf reach ot the pieces. This ins'anoe of couraga and humanity took place at the battle vi Mouumuth. Gen. Clinton who commanded tho English troops, knew that the Marquis de la Fayette generally rode a white horse; it was upon a white horse that the fcncral officer, who retired fo slowly, was mountod; Clinton desired the gnnners not to fire.
