PARTS, .Time 22nd, 18CC. EniTon OF THE GREENSBORO PATRIOT : We are at last beginning to see clearly in the cmbroglio that oppresses Europe the ilenocument of which will no doubt be a m.'St dreadful butchery of Christians. ' HUMANITY OF THE PRUSSIANS. The soldiers of Bismark, in opening the campaign, have begun by assuring the peo-ple of those countries which they have invaded, that they have come there as brothers and not a3 enemies ; in less than six .lays, the troops of King William are masters of Hanover, Hesse Electoral and Saxony. lii ITanoviTcan army which was mass-ed in Guttingcn in order to form a junc-tion with the Austiians now s»es itself cut off from its ally by the Prussians. All the German papers inform us that the Prussi-ans have generally been well received by the populations. The soldiers of Bismark who now occupy Wetriar menace Frank-tort, which is defended by the Federal ar-my under the command of Alexander of Hesse. The army called that of" the Kibe, com-manded by Prince Frederic Charles, which is now operating in Saxony, consists 0» 38,000 men. TKIC army of Silesia under the command of the Prince Royal ot Prussia is much inferior. THE AUSTRIAN'S, in Silesia, on the contrary, are massed in great numbers under Field Marshal Ben-edeck t-> the amount of 250,000 to 300.- OuO. We have not as yet had any battle of importance. However \vc must mention THE BATTLE OF RCKKSBUBA. On the frontiers of Bohemia, where, ii is said, the Ausirians had the advantage. Per contra, at Friedberg near Frankfort a regiment of Hessians were completely routed by the Prussians who menaced Frankfort. We are daily expecting to hear of a great battle, but to do j stito to the Ger-mans, we must say that they dn not seem in a hurry to come to blows, but the un-happy Teutons already know the wretched m 98 of war, as all communications are in-terrupted, the rails taken up in several places, hund.eds ot families have to lament the absence of fathers, husbands, etc., call-ed away to the Landicelar. Business is bad and almost dead; what is even more de-plorable, the cholera has come to make bad worse. It has made its appearance in Ber-lin, in Stettin and in Prussian Silesia. ITALY'S PE; I.AU.VTION OF WAR. On the 20th inst. Victor Emmanuel de-clared war upon Austria after which he left Florence for head quarters at Cremone. The quadrilateral will be attacked in three or four days. The Italian army will commence opera-tions in four different points at the same time. The Italian fleet will attack Venice atUovigojCialdini at the head of eight divisions will try to cross the lower Po ; Victor Emmanuel will attempt "' '4'-'; lloW the quadrilateral, whilst Garibaldi at the bead ol ihe volunteers will attack Trent, A hi. h i- the Iv j "f il"-' Tyrol. According to all account*, the Italian army is better than is genera '; believed ; the volunteer. -,., the u ^akeit pai t of the army. Gari-baldi il is said, is still suflfering from his wound received M Aspromonte, and it is probable that this will be the last cam-paign of Giuseppe Garibaldi. TACITURNITY OF NAPOLBOH III. Oar army to be sure is s'ill on the peace footing, but this peace footing looks very like a war footing ofother nations. Our fleet is ready for every emergency. The head of OUT Government, before risking an inch, wishes to be well .■ •epareaJ on land and at se i. This undecided attitude very much pro-vokes the war party round about the Em-peror, of which Prince Napoleon is the leader. They observe that we are losing the beat opportunity of making a lasting ally of Prussia and getting the borders of the Rhine which are so necessary to us.— In fact, says the war party, if we wait un-til the Prussians arc beaten to intervene and the Austrian troops are triumphant, our moral influence will be diminished in Germany. If, on the other hand, the Prussians are victorious without our aid, it is not likely that they will quietly give uptheKhenishp.ovim-.es. 1 think the Emperor would have taken some decisive step had it not been for THE ATTITUDE OF RUSSIA AND T.NOI.AN1'. Russia mote than any other country gives our Emperor much anxiety. After much hesitation the cabinet of St. Peters-burg, notwithstanding its professions of attentive neutrality, seems more or less inclined to no a little farther. Should France take one step, Russia will take two. On the other hand the defeat of the Gladstone Ministry in England may be the means of chancing things on the other side ot the channel.' We may be said to be dancing on a volcano. There are now five millions ofarmed men in Europe at the present moment—ia the midst of this embroglio home matters are entirely neglected, the corjys legislatif is quite unheeded and they can go on discussing the budget without let or hindrance, the clever speeches of the radical orator Yules Fa-vre, being sweetness wasted on the desert air. The evening newspapers are caught up with avidity—the Government has given orders to the unstamped press not to make any mention of any military news coming from Germany. EIGHT MONTHS IV AMERICA. We have now naturally li'tle time to devote to either literature or the drama. We have a book by Monsieur Duvergier de Hauranne one of those who the most contributed to the fall of the house of Or-leans. It is cuWbtM to 84 o with what acri-mony this author speaks of the republic in institutions of the United States ; he seems to think that there is too much liberty in the land of the stars and the stripes—still Monsieur Duvergier calls himselfa liberal. This is the only literary work I have to mention. THE DEATH OF MERY. Our celebrated poet, novel-writer and improvisatorc, the author of so many charming novels—La Guerre de Steam and I.a Florida, etc., is no more- PATRIOT. GREENSBORO, N. C. The " conversations" which correspon-dents of radical papers of the North have recently had with him, and which they are reporting with such avidity, need excite no great alarm in this State, albeit they contain nothing but falsehood and misrep-resentation. President Johnson, with more sagacity than many would at first blush foresee, has nominated Mr. Holden as minister to a foreign Government. This nomination must be confirmed by the Sen-ate— and to seciirc this confirmation is what the ex-Gov. is now striving lo do in Washington by misrepresenting his own people to the radical Congress, and crea-ted to dancing, in which the votaries of Terpsichore, ••To the dulcet sound of flute and fiddle, Gave signal sweet in that old hall. Of hand- across and down the middle." Thus the evening imperceptibly passed away, and at sun-set the shrill whistle of the locomotive summoned the gay and festive throng to the care. Soon all were safely seated, the "brakes" were lifted, and the train, in charge of Captain Lewis and Engineer Robinson, sped its way, without an accident, arriving at Greens-boro in time to allow all ample opportu-nity to ruminate upon the pleasures of the ting the impression that he is one of onillyv ' -' kef°re courting balmy sleep, which. ten that will do to trust. We say let him j at ,ast'1S llie go it! Even at the eos,t of a few slanders l< •' Uhiof aperjfker ia tife'i feast. of our people, we hope he may succeed in FRIDAY, JULY 13, 18G6.

Paris have for some time been l"ok-inff forward to the performance of Dion JBoucicauli'i Arrah Na Po^we entitled here Jean Lnpuste, which lias taken the town by storm, as it is found as regards plot and scenery very superior to the pieces we have had of late. LADIES' FASHIONS. The bonnet which has for some time been dwindling to nothing, is a thing of the pa*t. What is now worn on the " by our Parisians is about the size shape of a piece of note paper and looks very much like the head dress of the Ro-man women, but on a smaller scale—there are no longer any strings worn as former-ly— lOI1g ribbons are worn hanging down jie back, and are called by the street boys, " follow me home »irs.n SOCRATE. a-- desir-d, two delegates from each Dis-trict, and four for the State at large.— Should this Convention result in no per-manent good fur the country, as some are inclined to thi. 1:, w> ^-riii see no harm as likely to grow from it; and certainly then can be no inconsist-ncy in the Southern State;; sending delegates to represent then:. Indeed, it is certainly the duty of the peo-ple ofthose States to send delegates. First, a cordial invitation is eXT 'tided to them ; and secondly, by this act they may prove to the masses of the people of the North the sincerity of their professions ot a de-sire for fiau nal Union. By men's acts 'ea,-I are thev iodscd. Should the Southern and , - ' ° , , . . . . , , States not heed tins invitation extended to them it may be argued that they are indifferent. We presume such is not the ease with an overwhelming majority of our lately rebellious people. Some per-sons have augured that the late "secession-ists " of the Soeth will at last be the in-struments of restoring the Union and pre-set ving constitut'n Dal liberty. The proph-ecy is not improbable. And the ball may be put in motion ia Philadelphia on the 14th of August. There is ample time tor meetings to be held in the various coun-ties oftins District, for the purpose4 of ap-pointing delegates to meet at some given point in the district for the purpose of choosing two delegates to represent them. Let the people move iu this matter, so that no time may be lost in efforts to re-store our disordered country. Interesting from South America-Vc.l paruiso to be A\ caged bv a Coup de Maine en Cuba.

THK PICNIC LAST FBZDAT.—The inno-cent means of enjoyment and pleasure seeking known as the Picnic, has become quite popular ia our community—or rath-er, we should say the popularity of it has this summer, the first for many years, been revived. The picnics by which the Sun-day Schools of the town were celebrated, which recently passed offmoch to the enjoy-ment of all concerned, oldsters as well as youngsters, seem to have opened the way for one on a larger scale, in which the iron horse and railroad car were substituted for the more plodding mode of trrveling over rough roads in wagons. According-ly the young gentlemen of town untie ted the movementon Wednesday last, by ap-pointing as a committee of ar angement*, Messrs. B. H. Lambert, G. W. Ifowletl and I,. FT.

At a much earlier hour than 7, groups ofladies and gentli men, the belles and beaux, the matrons and their staid liege lords, with a slight sprinkle of repen-tant bachelors began to a«aemble from eve-ry street, the former class proving that " To business which wo love, we rise betimc, And go to it witli delight ;' and the more sober and grave plainly spokfl by their actions that "Though sages may pour out their wisdom's treasure, Theri' is no rt«*rner moralist than pleasure,"' while our bachelor friends indicated tl at by devoting one day to pleasure, a d witnessing the happy state when souls each other draw, they were " Tired with vain joys nnii false alarms, and that it is a bitter thing to look •• Into happiness through other men's eyes,' decided to accompany the party, even though it might be instrumental in con-verting them into Benedicts (of course against their inclination) ere "autumn all in yellow clad."

EniTon OF THE GREENSBORO PATRIOT :
We are at last beginning to see clearly
in the cmbroglio that oppresses Europe
the ilenocument of which will no doubt
be a m.'St dreadful butchery of Christians.
' HUMANITY OF THE PRUSSIANS.
The soldiers of Bismark, in opening the
campaign, have begun by assuring the peo-ple
of those countries which they have
invaded, that they have come there as
brothers and not a3 enemies ; in less than
six .lays, the troops of King William are
masters of Hanover, Hesse Electoral and
Saxony.
lii ITanoviTcan army which was mass-ed
in Guttingcn in order to form a junc-tion
with the Austiians now s»es itself cut
off from its ally by the Prussians. All the
German papers inform us that the Prussi-ans
have generally been well received by
the populations. The soldiers of Bismark
who now occupy Wetriar menace Frank-tort,
which is defended by the Federal ar-my
under the command of Alexander of
Hesse.
The army called that of" the Kibe, com-manded
by Prince Frederic Charles, which
is now operating in Saxony, consists 0»
38,000 men.
TKIC army of Silesia under the command
of the Prince Royal ot Prussia is much
inferior.
THE AUSTRIAN'S,
in Silesia, on the contrary, are massed in
great numbers under Field Marshal Ben-edeck
t-> the amount of 250,000 to 300.-
OuO. We have not as yet had any battle
of importance. However \vc must mention
THE BATTLE OF RCKKSBUBA.
On the frontiers of Bohemia, where, ii
is said, the Ausirians had the advantage.
Per contra, at Friedberg near Frankfort
a regiment of Hessians were completely
routed by the Prussians who menaced
Frankfort.
We are daily expecting to hear of a
great battle, but to do j stito to the Ger-mans,
we must say that they dn not seem
in a hurry to come to blows, but the un-happy
Teutons already know the wretched
m 98 of war, as all communications are in-terrupted,
the rails taken up in several
places, hund.eds ot families have to lament
the absence of fathers, husbands, etc., call-ed
away to the Landicelar. Business is bad
and almost dead; what is even more de-plorable,
the cholera has come to make bad
worse. It has made its appearance in Ber-lin,
in Stettin and in Prussian Silesia.
ITALY'S PE; I.AU.VTION OF WAR.
On the 20th inst. Victor Emmanuel de-clared
war upon Austria after which he
left Florence for head quarters at Cremone.
The quadrilateral will be attacked in three
or four days.
The Italian army will commence opera-tions
in four different points at the same
time. The Italian fleet will attack Venice
atUovigojCialdini at the head of eight
divisions will try to cross the lower Po ;
Victor Emmanuel will attempt "' '4'-'; lloW
the quadrilateral, whilst Garibaldi at the
bead ol ihe volunteers will attack Trent,
A hi. h i- the Iv j "f il"-' Tyrol. According
to all account*, the Italian army is better
than is genera '; believed ; the volunteer.
-,., the u ^akeit pai t of the army. Gari-baldi
il is said, is still suflfering from his
wound received M Aspromonte, and it is
probable that this will be the last cam-paign
of Giuseppe Garibaldi.
TACITURNITY OF NAPOLBOH III.
Oar army to be sure is s'ill on the peace
footing, but this peace footing looks very
like a war footing ofother nations. Our fleet
is ready for every emergency. The head
of OUT Government, before risking an inch,
wishes to be well .■ •epareaJ on land and at
se i. This undecided attitude very much pro-vokes
the war party round about the Em-peror,
of which Prince Napoleon is the
leader. They observe that we are losing
the beat opportunity of making a lasting
ally of Prussia and getting the borders of
the Rhine which are so necessary to us.—
In fact, says the war party, if we wait un-til
the Prussians arc beaten to intervene
and the Austrian troops are triumphant,
our moral influence will be diminished in
Germany. If, on the other hand, the
Prussians are victorious without our aid,
it is not likely that they will quietly give
uptheKhenishp.ovim-.es. 1 think the
Emperor would have taken some decisive
step had it not been for
THE ATTITUDE OF RUSSIA AND T.NOI.AN1'.
Russia mote than any other country
gives our Emperor much anxiety. After
much hesitation the cabinet of St. Peters-burg,
notwithstanding its professions of
attentive neutrality, seems more or less
inclined to no a little farther. Should France
take one step, Russia will take two. On
the other hand the defeat of the Gladstone
Ministry in England may be the means of
chancing things on the other side ot the
channel.' We may be said to be dancing
on a volcano. There are now five millions
ofarmed men in Europe at the present
moment—ia the midst of this embroglio
home matters are entirely neglected, the
corjys legislatif is quite unheeded and
they can go on discussing the budget
without let or hindrance, the clever
speeches of the radical orator Yules Fa-vre,
being sweetness wasted on the desert
air.
The evening newspapers are caught up
with avidity—the Government has given
orders to the unstamped press not to make
any mention of any military news coming
from Germany.
EIGHT MONTHS IV AMERICA.
We have now naturally li'tle time to
devote to either literature or the drama.
We have a book by Monsieur Duvergier
de Hauranne one of those who the most
contributed to the fall of the house of Or-leans.
It is cuWbtM to 84 o with what acri-mony
this author speaks of the republic in
institutions of the United States ; he seems
to think that there is too much liberty in
the land of the stars and the stripes—still
Monsieur Duvergier calls himselfa liberal.
This is the only literary work I have to
mention.
THE DEATH OF MERY.
Our celebrated poet, novel-writer and
improvisatorc, the author of so many
charming novels—La Guerre de Steam
and I.a Florida, etc., is no more-
PATRIOT.
GREENSBORO, N. C.
The " conversations" which correspon-dents
of radical papers of the North have
recently had with him, and which they
are reporting with such avidity, need excite
no great alarm in this State, albeit they
contain nothing but falsehood and misrep-resentation.
President Johnson, with
more sagacity than many would at first
blush foresee, has nominated Mr. Holden
as minister to a foreign Government. This
nomination must be confirmed by the Sen-ate—
and to seciirc this confirmation is
what the ex-Gov. is now striving lo do in
Washington by misrepresenting his own
people to the radical Congress, and crea-ted
to dancing, in which the votaries of
Terpsichore,
••To the dulcet sound of flute and fiddle,
Gave signal sweet in that old hall.
Of hand- across and down the middle."
Thus the evening imperceptibly passed
away, and at sun-set the shrill whistle of
the locomotive summoned the gay and
festive throng to the care. Soon all were
safely seated, the "brakes" were lifted,
and the train, in charge of Captain Lewis
and Engineer Robinson, sped its way,
without an accident, arriving at Greens-boro
in time to allow all ample opportu-nity
to ruminate upon the pleasures of the
ting the impression that he is one of onillyv ' -' kef°re courting balmy sleep, which.
ten that will do to trust. We say let him j at ,ast'1S llie

a-- desir-d, two delegates from each Dis-trict,
and four for the State at large.—
Should this Convention result in no per-manent
good fur the country, as some are
inclined to thi. 1:, w> ^-riii see no harm as
likely to grow from it; and certainly then
can be no inconsist-ncy in the Southern
State;; sending delegates to represent then:.
Indeed, it is certainly the duty of the peo-ple
ofthose States to send delegates. First,
a cordial invitation is eXT 'tided to them ;
and secondly, by this act they may prove
to the masses of the people of the North
the sincerity of their professions ot a de-sire
for fiau nal Union. By men's acts
'ea,-I are thev iodscd. Should the Southern
and , - ' ° , , . . . . , ,
States not heed tins invitation extended
to them it may be argued that they are
indifferent. We presume such is not the
ease with an overwhelming majority of
our lately rebellious people. Some per-sons
have augured that the late "secession-ists
" of the Soeth will at last be the in-struments
of restoring the Union and pre-set
ving constitut'n Dal liberty. The proph-ecy
is not improbable. And the ball may
be put in motion ia Philadelphia on the
14th of August. There is ample time tor
meetings to be held in the various coun-ties
oftins District, for the purpose4 of ap-pointing
delegates to meet at some given
point in the district for the purpose of
choosing two delegates to represent them.
Let the people move iu this matter, so
that no time may be lost in efforts to re-store
our disordered country.

means of enjoyment and pleasure
seeking known as the Picnic, has become
quite popular ia our community—or rath-er,
we should say the popularity of it has
this summer, the first for many years, been
revived. The picnics by which the Sun-day
Schools of the town were celebrated,
which recently passed offmoch to the enjoy-ment
of all concerned, oldsters as well as
youngsters, seem to have opened the way
for one on a larger scale, in which the iron
horse and railroad car were substituted
for the more plodding mode of trrveling
over rough roads in wagons. According-ly
