MONDAY, AUGUST 22, 1870.

Our European Correspondence. We take much pleasure in giving to our readers to-day another of the charming lettera from Deedee. There are flashes of genuine genius running all through them, and gives one a very clear idea of the scenes through which she passes. The Irishman will see in this letter a beautiful pen portrait of his home —the land of the Shamrock, and of an oppression as wrong as it is galling to the

spirit

of true Irishmen everywhere.

From the St. Louis Republican, Aug. 16. Hydrophobia—A Woman and Three Children Bitten—One of the Children in

Paroxysms. The family of Mr. Robert D. Court, residing at Benton, six and a half miles out on the Pacific Railroad have met with a most heart-rending affliction.

About four weeks ago Mrs. Court and three of her children were bitten by a little dog, the pet of the family. Some days previous the brute had a tight with other dogs in the vicinity, and was severely used. He showed symptoms of illness, but they were attributed to this fight. A day or two after he had bitten the members of the family, Mr. Court, although not believing that the animal was affected by hydrophobia, killed him. A physician was consulted, and a madstone applied to the places where the dog's teeth had lacerated the skin, but the mad-stone failed to take hold of, or have and effect upon them.

Believing that all danger had passed, Mr. and Mrs. Court last week went on a visit to a point near Kalamazoo, Mich., leaving their children in the care of a competent person.

On Sunday the children were brought to the city and attended church. On returning home, Mollie, the youngest, six years of age, complained of illness, which assimilated to paroxysms. The bite of the dog was called to the minds of friends with frightful distinctness. Drs. Garnett and Reynolds were called in, and they pronounced it a case of hydrophobia.

At intervals during Sunday night little Mollie was afflicted with spasms, or fits. The medical gentlemen and friends and neighbors labored and prayed with despairing anxiety.

While the spasms lasted, the little darling, as if by divine interposition, was rendered unconscious of her sufferings, as her reason suffered dethronement. Yesterday morning, during the intervals in the paroxysms, she was perfectly sane and, with the judgment of a person of adult years, comprehended her terrible situation and talked calmly about it. She bade those around her good-bye, sent good-byes to her papa and mamma, who were far away from her in her time of trial, and resigned herself to her fate. 1 lor death was anticipated during the day but we have had no advices since yesterday morning.

The other two children, Charley and Ella are in the bloom of health, and it is believed and hoped they will not be similarly affected. [Little Mollie, after lingering in great agony, died on Tuesday.] An American Lady Nnrsc in the Freneli

Camp.

A letter from Strasburg, in the Paris Steele says: "Women are arriving here in large numbers to act as infirmary nurses. They come from all parts French, Italians, English, and even Americans.

At Nancy, on the Place Stanislas, I met the engraver of an illustrated journal. 'Will you come with me?' he said, 'lam going to sketch a young American lady who has come here to nurse our wounded.' I followed him to the hotel where we found her. She was young, pretty, and, according to reports, rich certainly an amiable nurse to distract the attention of her patients. For some of these ladies, particularly this American to whom I refer, the idea of the picturesque has had something to do with their aetermination. The latter was not averse to having her portrait published and dressed for that purpose in a costume which reminds one more of an amazon than an attendant on the sick—a gray felt hat with a white feather, a black tunic confined at the waist by a belt of varnished leather with a silver buckle, loose black trowsers fastened just below the knee, and Hessian boots with white spurs. It must be allowed that this costume would do capitally for the Opera Comique. "She has also three horses, one for herself, another to carry her medicines, and the third for her servant."

Day of Election.

There has been some inquiry in regard to the day on which the election will be held in Obtober next. The Constitution of Iudiana, article 3, section 14, prescribes that "all general elections shall be held on the second Tuesday in October." The election must, consequently, be held on Tuesday, October 11th, as it will be a "general election, and the Constitution of the State has fixed theday and month on which it must be held.

The election law passed at the last session of the Legislature does not, as it could not, interfere with the provisions of the Constitution. The law passed April 26,1859, provides as follows "A general election shall be held biennially on the secoud Tuesday in October, at which election all existing vacancies in office, the terms of which shall expire before the next general election thereafter, shall be filled, unless, otherwise provided by law provided, the first election under this act shall take place on the second Tuesday in October, 1S70, and every second year thereafter —Indianapolis Sentinel. Vote of Thanks to the Germans in America.

The North German Consul General at New York has received the following vote of thanks from Germany to the Germans of this country for their sympathy with their native land, and the collections they are making for the German victims of the European war: "Your warm sympathy and active help in the frivolous war with an insolent enemy, who is invading us, has truly benefited us in our hearts. When you left your homes, you transferred the penates of patriotism to your new country. There, in the land of freedom, great by Washington's deeds, hallowed by the martyr blood of the noble, inflexible Lincoln, you have not lost the feelings of communion with us, your German brethren on this side of the ocean. In glaring flames of enthusiasm for your native land, you rise against the same Cajsarism which stretched forth its hand for Mexico, which protected the hydra of rebellion in your own country, as much as it could do so, and which now intends to enrich the banks of the beautiful river Rhine with blood. Thanks to you for this love, this enthusiasm, dear compatriots. Across the ocean we reach to you, in German faithfulness, the brotherly hand. Three cheers for the common mother! Three cheers for Germania Three cheers for the daughter bright with freedom Three eheens for America! Thus resolved at Cologne on the Rhine, on the 26 th of July, 1870, with unanimous, enthusiastic applause, by a mass meeting held at the Gertrudenof.

HAUCK, Sec'y BESSEL, President. ,— A CORRESPONDENT writes that hi Havana and throughout the Island, the Spaniards unanimously sympathise with the Prussians, while the Cuban9 as unanimously uphold the cause of France, believing that Spain must, sooiier or later, become a party to the war and fight against France. DeRhodas is of the same opinion. -p'la

Special European Correspondence. GLENCARIFF, ROYAL HOTEL, July 11,1870. Dear Husband: We left the city of Cork this morning, traveled twenty-six miles by rail and then-took carriages and have proceeded thus far on our way to Killarney, having come forty miles by carriages. I have been reminded all day of our journey through the White Mountains. We have had the most beautiful day, and the scenery is quite as grand as the scenery of the White Mountains, and yet more picturesqe. It is impossible to convey to you any idea of this wonderfully romantic and majestic portion of Ireland. I wished for you all day. You would be the happiest one of our party. Oh, such beautiful roads, such pure mountain air, such grand old castles and bridges, mountains and valleys flowers wreathing the fences or stone walls on each side of the road such cascades every thing seems connected with Cromwell Historical grottoes where the Druids worshipped long before our Christian religion was known here. Fortifications of less ancient date, but of great interest. Our children have been so very happy and Nellie is really beginning to have rosy cheeks. They would get out and run along the road after us crying out in imitation of the beggar children, "ha-penny—have none—no sir, no sir, no sir, ha-penny—give me ha-penny."

Then when they would spy a swarm of these creatures coming up the road, they would jump in the carriage. These poor little children are from two years old up to men and women, oh, so ragged and filthy! Our driver had to just whip them off from the wheels. We. passed many beautiful spots where dwell Lords and Earls, and were so enchanted by the loveliness of the landscape that we were sorry when night came and our day's ride ended. But we are in an Eden to-night. You can't conceive of the perfection of green, and the Paradise of the world, until you see this Emerald Isle. Why in the world Americans don't come here more, I can't imagine. And yet Mrs. Love tells me Germany is still more charming. We will remain here and go fishing for salmon to-mor-row. Then Ave start again in the carriages and travel on until we reach the lakes of Killarney. "Oh, did you ne'er hear of Kate Kearney,

Who lives on the banks of Killarney?" Perry would be the happiest man on earth here in this funny land of Paddies. Such strange, contradictory traits of character as they do possess, is really astonishing. If Perry had been with us a rich treat would have been his. Another Barny Williams or Billy Florence, this man had a face you could not help trusting. He is industrious and full of true Irish eloquence, and so well informed as to be able to give us interest ing accounts of everything, not excepting the superstitions and traditions connected with the old castles, &c. Our party is lull of frolic we do just as we please and abandon ourselves to entire pleasure.

I wish you could see the beautiful sheep and Durham cows. Nothing in our country can begin to equal them.

The tears flow at the thought of the distance between us to-night. How I wonder where you are, and whether you are well to-night. What would I not give to see you But there is an old proverb which says, "You can't eat your cake and have it too." I can't see the old world and be at your side too.

MORNING, July 12.—We leave here in half an hour. All our luggage, except bags, were sent on to Dublin, where we will be in two or three days. I had forgot to write at Queenstown that one of my trunks was sent with some baggage of the party to Liverpool, as it was not needed on this Irish jaunt, and will save much expense

Now for breakfast around the monstrous big table, and then off we go. I write thus particular so you will feel as though you were with us.

KENMERE, July 13—Wednesday.—We drove twenty-one miles yesterday, reaching Kenmere in the afternoon. The Inn is a poor specimen—much like they are at Sharon, Vermont, beds and all. Kenmeres' great boast is a convent, through which we were taken last evening about sun setting, and were shown specimens of rich Irish point lace, made by the sisters there. There was a charm of repose about the place, and appearance of home like happiness within. The mountains and valleys we passed over yesterday, were far beyond any thiug you and I have ever seen. Many times we were over four thousand feet high. Many of the mountain summits were crowned with lakes. It is utterly impossible to give you an idea of the perfect beauty and wonderful sublimity combined. The roads are marble white all the way, and hard as our Central Park, covered on either side with a little stone wall, about three feet high, and entirely covered with wild flowers and Irish ivy, literaly strewing our pathway with flowers, whose perfume filled the air. Every mountain side had either beautiful farms or groves of supreme loveliness. I tell you my dear husband and friends, you cannot conceive of what this scenery and air is like. We passed the seats of Lords and Earls. We saw solitary old castles over and over again, with the same old ivy "Creeping where no life is seen,

A rare old plant is the ivy green." General Love chose this way of going to Killarney, on account of the scenery which we could not have seen if we had gone by cars.

I was greatly interested in the bog or turf which is cut in squares from the ground, and piled uplike Doard plies, and used for fuel.

It looks like great chunks of chocolate. I was also interested in the little mud huts, where the poor live. Think of it, In this emerald and heavenly spot, these huts are all over it, and rags and bare feet, filth and horror. I said aloud, without thinking of our driver oh, this must be the idle, improvident class who occu py these bake ovens. I shall not soon forget the look and answer of our good man with .the roins. There was an expression of bitterness and suffering in his face, as he replied: "Och, my.good lady, its afther payinr taxes, they are and they can't get on, at-all at-all."

THURSDAY, July 14—Killarney House, Killarney.—I confess to be more embarrassed for words to convey my meaning than ever before in my life. None but a poet's pen can give a faint idea of what a Heaven Killarney is. I am afraid I shall waken and find it all a dream. Sometimes I wonder if I have left the wotld, have died, and been transported to one of those bright planets we used to look at in the sky. No human eye could rest upon a scene of natural and cultivated beauty greater than this. Even Mrs. Lore, who has seen Versailles and Hamburg, gays this cannot be surpassed. Our drive, yesterday, beggars description. Such sublimity of mountain views—such wreaths of flowers along the roadside, such lakes and such air. Oh, the valleys! The ivy all over the world! The bird songs of unheard-of melody! Oh, my heart swells with gratitude to^you this morning for this almost unendurable happiness and only one regret follows me—it is that you and the other^ ate not here to understand what I now feel,—for language is poverty stricken in the effort to describe this more than Paradise. There is nothing in Central Park that can in the least degree compare with this favored spot, arrangement of trees and flowers is

The so artistic, and nature itself smiles so radiantly, that onfe almost loses the senses in contemplating what is spread out under their feet and all about them.

Roses of every shade of color in profusion, too large to span them with both hands beds of flowers representing rainbows arbors entirely covered with fusias fountains in every direction, sending spray high in the air, to fall trinkling down upon snow white gods and godesses, so graceful in attitude as to bewilder the most unappreciative. In the grounds stands the- most exquisitely beautiful model of architecture, for Turkish baths. And then the lakes! Oh, the lakes of Killarney, and the mountains that loom up beyond to look down in majesty upon all this handiwork of nature and art! "Where is Adam and Eve's tomb," I said to Patrick, our driver, yesterday. "There!" "But there are no serpents here—how is that?" "Och, mum, sure and didn't ye know St. Patrick banished them olf He did, my lady and ye'll not be after seein' the smallest wor-rem in the land."

And it is so. Not an insect or worm have we seen, and there are no snakes, even on the mountains. And while we are clad in winter garments, and often wear our blanket shawls, we do not feel too warm ever. Neither is there a chill to remind us of the winter time. There is something strangely peculiar in the vigor and evenness of this Irish atmosphere.

We are enjoying the most sumptuous comforts at this house. Just imagine it. Here among these mighty hills is a hotel equal in splendor and far superior in comfort to any in either New York or Saratoga. The dining saloon is perfectly magnificent, and such cooking I have never known. Every thing is served, Mrs. Love says, after Parisian style. But it is the first good meal we have had since we left the City of Cork.

After we arrived, we were enabled to get a most refreshing bath, and we then proceeded, by jaunting car, to see some of the sights. First to the business street. And "Angels and ministers of grace defend us," what a sight and what a change! A row of stuccoed, thatched shops on each side the street, and swarms of nasty wretches in blue cloaks and ruffled caps, children wallowing in filth, men in rags, swarms of these in the dirty street, no sign of a decent looking human being except those within buying or selling, and almost every store contains specimens of wood work made here at Killarney—most beautiful boxes and other articles, cut and carved with the same "Lakes of Killarney" marked on them. I got two or three (for almost nothing) as mementoes.

Nellie played croquet until she went to bed. At 9 o'clock she was playing, and it was perfectly light—just as much so as as it is at home at seven or half-past six.

This morning General Love ha» taken the children fishing for salmon on the Lake. -They are as happy as birds. Now Mrs. Love, Talbot and I have just returned from breakfast, where we have been served sumptuously.(Table D'Hote) Most amusing it was to look around upon the whiskered English gentry, frowning for the sole purpose of keeping one glass on the right eye, hair parted in the middle, fec. The one glass fixed tight under the brow was evidently to enable them to see what we had for breakfast, and to scan well, each of our party. Oh, this foreign impudence!

The waiters are as different from ours as possible. They look like gentlemen, and indeed it would astonish you to see what perfect servants there are in Ireland They never fail to please the most faultfinding individual. I noticed the kitchen as we came up from breakfast. It is situated like the parlor, and open to the view of every passer-by. Just as great an ornament as the drawing room, and as cleanly as any part of the house, and speaking of that we may say we never saw such neatness in all our days as this house presents. Our rooms are the very lap of luxury, with great downy beds upon which we sleep and dream of friends. We have private parlors for the whole party, and Nellie can practice on a piano more music than I ever heard.

Now, you would be surprised at the honesty found here among this Irish set We do not lock our doors, nobody does, Even yesterday in that rabble among the shops, I had purchased some cherries in a crowd of about thirty vile thievish look ing creatures, and had given her too much money by mistake. We had gone half way across the street before she called out, "Come back wid yees, damn it, and take the shilling yees was afther laving by mistake, bad luck to yees, and go and moind yees business."

I shall write another letter before leave here before Saturday, so good-bye now. DEEDEE.

A Nice Little Story.

Once upon a time there was a young lady who had three pretty new teeth in her mouth. She bought them of a den list, and they were fastened to a beauti ful, patent vulcanized rubber plate. This young lady could eat almost anything witli*her new teeth, and she felt very proud of them they were so useful and looked so well when she smiled One day sbe was eating dinner, just as fast as sbe could, and she got choked with a piece of bone. Then she ran into the woodshed and coughed until the tears came into her eyes, and her father came out and pounded her shoulders, and her mother made her drink a pint of water, and, finally, she got better but alas her new teeth were gone. So herself and father, and her sisters, and her big brother, and the servant girl, and the neighbor's little boy, looked all over the woodshed for those teeth, but they could not find them. Then the young lady was scared, and she said to her mother: "O mother, I felt something hard in my throat when I drank that water, and I have swallowed my teeth, and I shall die—I know I shall die—anci what shall I do

That scared the mother, and she put the young lady in bed and sent for the doctor. Well, the teeth made her very sick. You know how thin people get sometimes from the gnawingsof remorse, and, of course, the gnawings of three patent porcelain teeth would be much worse The doctor could do nothing, and the young lady kept getting worse and worse, until the doctor said she could not live more than twenty-four hours. That very day the neighbor's little boy found the three lost teeth in the back yard, where they had been thrown while the young lady was coughing. He took them in and showed them to the young lady, who said she felt a good deal better, and got up and dressed. She is well now but she always takes out her teeth before eating dinner.

The Crops on the Theatre of War. 3 A Frankfort letter of July 30 to the London Nexus says: "A more unfortunate time for the outbreak of hostilities could hardly have been selected. The crops are nearly ready for the sickle, and there is but a scanty supply of labor. Throughout the vast tract of country I have traveled, from the fertile valleys of the Rhine and Moselle to the sandy plains which encompass Berlin, the sight of waving cornfields was the one which uniformly met the eye. Here and there a few women were cutting down the ripe grain, yet in the majority of the fields, there were no signs of the husbandman plying his necessary task. In the vicinity of the Rhine the crops appear to be unusually luxuriant. The drought, of which complaints are made here as well as elsewhere, does not seem to have proved very injurious--. It is expected that the vintage will be unexceptionally good, provided ah opportunity is offered for peaceably plucking the grapes. When gazing upon the glorious promises of the prolific earth it is almost impossible to realize the fact that a tremendous effort is being made to undo the work which has been accomplished with much toil, and to convert the smiling cornfields and vineyards into a barren and blackened battleground."

HAVE compiled full, concise and complete. the information of persons, intending to take up a Homestead or Pre-Emption in this poetry of the West, embracing Iowa, Dakota, and Nebraska and other sections. It explains how to proceed to secure.160 acres of Rich Farming Land for Nothing, six months before you leave your home, in the most healthful climate. In short it contain# just such instructions as are needed by those intending to make a Home and Fortune in the„ Free Lands of the West. I will send one ot* these printed Guides to any person for 25 cents. The information alone, which, it gives is worth $5 to anybody. Men who came here two and three years ago, and took a farm, are to-day in« dependent.

To YOUNG MEN:""""-'

This country is being crossed with numerous Railroads from every direction to Sioux City, Iowa. Six Railroads will be made to this city within one year. One is already In operation connecting us with Chicago and the U. P. Railroad and two more will be completed before spring, connecting us with Dubuque and McGregor, direct. Three more will be completed within a year, connecting us direct with St Paul, Minn., Yankton, Dakota, and Columbus Nebraska, on the U. P. Railroad. The Missou River gives us the Mountain Trade. Tbus it wi1 be seen that no section of country offers such unprecedented advantages for business, speculation and making a fortune, for the country is being populated, and towns and cities are being built, and fortunes made almost beyond belief. Every man who takes a homestead now will have a railroad market at his own door, And
