Prussia who has-precipitated such a step by h?r exortitant pretensions.. : After having broken with her own hands the bond that cemented .thc German Confederation, Prussia sliowed no disposition td obey the sum? mons made last October, for tho e vac nat ion of Luxemburg. This summons, as Count BISMABCK adnu ts, wad addressed to -Prussia six months ago by the Grand Duke of Luxemburg,' (tho King of I li o ll and.) .

We hate war more than ever; more, than over do we look forpeace; but if Prussia, which holds in nor bands the issue of peace or war, shall make war inevitable, the.Whole responsibility must fall exclusively and justly'upon tile Prussian govern? ment; and if not upou Count BISMARCK, it must rest upon King WILLIAM.- ".j ; ,,j . . . : A' byaUnmhz'ed: peace, di sann od, glorified by liberty-a peace fertilized by credit, peace such as we have' desired and spoken of for thirty years, would; we doubt not, sooner or later, conjured the perils which were obliged to follow an armed peace-a peace established without system and without ideasr without grandeur, glory or liberty.

Eberhart, Superintendent of ?ducation for Geor? gia, gives tho following fa;ts and figures which be takes from his report for the month of March : Number of school) sustained by freedmen. 51 Number of schools sustained by the Bureau. 13 Number of schoolB sustained by Northern societies 63 Total number of schools. nts White teachers. 109 Colored teachers.,. 15 Total number of taachors. 154 Total number of pupils.10,263 Average attendance. 7,131 Pupils in alphabet.2,111 In reading.8,162 In geography.1,122 In arithmetic.2,085 In writing.2,380 In grammar.^. 117 There are schools in forty-six counties-there being rrom one to seventcon schools iu each of that number of counties. The total cost of sustaining thc schools during the month was $(5650. Of that amount the freed? men paid $2000, the Bureau $810, and Northern Socio tie, $3840. In the eighty-two schools* sustained by thc North, there are 7792 pupils-almost four-fifths of tho whole number enrolled. Of these, there are 1450 in the schools in Savan? nah, 1000 in Augusta, 1350 in Atlanta, 1180 in Ma? con, and 650 in Columbus. In connection with tho day schools-taught by tho aime teachers-there aro fifty-five Sunday schools, with an attendance of 7159 pupils. The above figures show an increase, since Feb? ruary, of three schools, niuo teachers and 1200 pupils. My April report will show a much larger increase. A hero are, in addition to the schools reported by mo, pet haps fifty others in the State, with an attendance of 1200 pupils, making in all 200 schools, and it is tah- to presumo that there are in Georgia tooday 100,000 colored persons who oro, in one way arid another, learning tu read and write. I So far as my knowledge extends, I have been ? ?ble to observo no abatement in the desire for edu? cation, which was so enthusiastically exhibited by flic colored people "when freodom carno;" and where they enjoy tho advantages of compote nt teaching, they make quito as rapid and substantial progress as any pupils I have over seen in schools of enrular grades.

A NEW DEMOCRATIC MOVEMENT.-A New York lotter to a Philadelphia paper contains the fol? lowing: As a matter of some political interest, it may be ; mentioned that many of the moro prominent load i ere ol tho Democratic party, who have boon quiot i ly in consultation hero during thu week, are in favor of a speedy chango of tno entire poli |,cy of that party, iu tho hupo that it will enable Ijtnetn to carry the next Presidential election. To make a long story short, the plan is simply ibis-to ignoro thu negro altogether, laud bring up "Internal Improvements" ni bia place. They will pledge themselves in favor of ithe Niagara Snip Canal, in favor of connecting the Chesapeake Bay with Uhio, in favor o? reconstructing thc Mississippi levees, and of pushing forward to coniolotiou tho throe Unes of pacific Railroad. It is calouiatod that on these issues they can carry the great West, especially il' Tree Trade be tacked on, while of thoir success iu the- Middle States they profess to have no doubt. That is the programme in outline. It will have burne lill.ng up in regard to the Monroe Doctiino, the Constitutional obligations, and tho binding force of Supreme Court ueo'sions, but Internal Im? provement! and Tree Trade will be the two pillars on which the platform will be made to rest, i This, new political movement, as I have said, has been quietly maturing for some time past, but it will not be long before it is officially auuouucod, and with tho announcement tho Democratic cam? paign for the next Presidency will regularly begin. ! SUICIDE OF A SOUTH CAROLINIAN. -The St. Louis 'Times says: ; F. C. Clowell. a gentleman by birth and educa? tion, was a captain in tba Confederate Bernes. At the dosing of tho war be worked a plantation in Holy Springs, Miss. Some time stnoe be had a personal rencontre with a negro, and killed him. He Was faned by a civil court and acquitted, but fearing the military authorities, be. lett, and on thc 4tn inst, reached this city, stopping at tbe Southern. He made frionds w.th a gentleman stopping or frequenting that hotel, to whom he imparted bis history, and to whom, in fits of melancholy, he would express bis disgust with Ufo. He also imparted to this gentleman tho fact that bo was short of means, and unable to pay thc sum required at the hotel Lt he remained iu tho city. He was therefore persuaded to toko boarding in the bouse at which his friend stopped;- No. ?fitt South Pifth street, kept by Mr. Vivian. Night before last ClewoU was moro than usually down? hearted, and bis friend asked him to go to the Varieties. This be refused, alleging that be felt like haying a chill. When the gentleman returned from the theatre," ho found his room mate vc ry UL Ere,- Wizlezams and. Golding were called in, but leir efforts wore ineffectual to save him. He died at four o'clock yesterday morning. The Coroner was called upon yesterday, an inquest was held, and a post mortem examination made.

Parton't "Famous Americans."] j The copy beforo us, of Mr. Goodyear's work upon ' 'G urn-elastic and - its Varieties," presents at least something unique in the art of book making, lt is self-illustrating; inasmuch as, treat mg of India rubber, it is rrmd? of India rubber. An un? observant reader, however, would scat eely suspect the fact before reading tho preface, for the India rubber covers resemble highly polished ebony, and tho leaves nave the appearance, of ancient paper ?om. soft, thin and dingy by numberless perusals, ho volume contains 620 pagos: but it is not as thick as copies' of the same work printed on paper, though it is a little heavier. It is o vident that the substance of which this "book is composed cannot be India rubber in its natural etate. Thoso leaves, thinner than paper, can be stretched only by a Stong: pullend resume tho jr sh np o perfectly when .cy are-let go. There is no smell of India rubber about them. We first ssw this book in a cold room in January, but the leaves were then BS flexible as old paper; and when sinco we have handled it in wann weather, they had grown no softer. : Some, of our readers may havo hoard-Daniel Webster relate the story of tho India rubber cloak land bat which one of his Now York friends Bent him at Marshfield in the infancy of the manufac? ture. Ho took tbe coat to tho piazza ono cold morning, when it instantly became as rigid as sheet bron. Pinding that it stood alone he placed the hat upon it, and left the articles standing near the front door. Several of his neighbors who passed, seeing a dark and portly figure there, took it for too lord of the mansion and gave it respect? ful salutation. The same articles were hable to ah objection still more serious. In tho sun, even in cool weather* they became sticky, while on a hot day they would melt entirely away to the con si a taney of molasses. Every ono romom tiers the thick and ill-shapen India rubber shoes of twenty years ago, which had to bo thawed out under the stove before they could be put on. and which, if left under the stove 'too Jong, would dissolve into gum tuat; no household art could over harden 3;ain. Some decorous gentleman among us can BO remember that, ip the nocturnal combat H of their college- day?, -a' flinty- rubber shoe, in cold weather, was a missile weapon of a highly effective character. . This curious-volume, therefore, cannot bo made of tho unmanageable stuff which -Daniel Webster set up at bis front door. So much is evident at a glance. But tbe book shows that it can bo subject? ed; without injury, to tests more severe than sum? mer's sim and winter's cold. It can' be soa'tod six months in a pail'bf water, and Vt di be as good a book as ever. It can be boiled; it eau bo baked in an oven hot enough to cook a turkey; it can bo soaked in brine, lye, ca mph ene, turpentine or oil; it can bo dipped in oil of vit roi, ana still no barm done. To crown its merits, no rat, mouse, worm or moth has ever shown tho slightest inclination to make acquaintance with it. Tho office of a re? view is not usually pro vi dod with the means of sub? jecting literature to such critical tests as lye, vitrol, boders and hot ovens. Bnt wo have Been enough, elsewhere, of th? ordeals to which India-rubber is new subjected, to behove Mr. Goodyear's state? ments. Remote posterity will enjoy the fruit of his labors, unless some one take particular pains to destroy this book; for it seems that timo itself produces no effect upon the India-rubber which bears tbe familiar stamp, "Goodyear's patent." In tho dampest corner ol the dampest collar, uo mold Eathers upon it; no decay penetrates it. In tho ottest garret it never warps or cracks. BREAD AND THE CROPS.-Recent developments have satisfied us that there is a scarcity of bread hi this District to an extent never before realized I in its history. Wo are apprized that there bas been suffering, and moro will result in conse? quence, beforo tho coming crop will yield any reUef. A few gonerou? donations of corn have been roc. i ved m tho District, and distributed. Tho rolief those donations have afforded comes in good time, and is received with gratitude by the dis tiessed. Destitute persons, m somo instances, have walked as far ae twenty miles to re?oive their pittance of a pock of com from this charity. The prospect for a munificent wheat harvest lins never been moro promising at this season of tito year. Should formers escape tho accidents inci? dental to the crop at this season, tho yield of wheat will be sufficient to supply bread until tho com rincnB. Even tho poorest soil promises a generous yield, and nowhere bave we seen an inferior field.-Forftotte Enq. MARRIAGES.
