REFORM MEETING IN WARD 5.-The Union Reform Club of Ward 5 met at Arnold's hall last evening, president Fanning In the chair. . The constitution as proposed was adopted. 'The meeting was then addressed by Mr. W. E . England, whose remarks were of a nature -calculated to cause those who have not yet -satisfied themselves of the importance of the .great movement of Reform, to think earnestly -??nd seriously of the great peril in which they place their property by permitting a possible .chance of ?lection to remain to the Scott Bing. He was followed by Mr. Mitchell, who was In .turn succeeded by Mr. Harper, who, from his hodge t of personal experience, presented more than one sketch of the Bing leaders, which I showed the colored men present that the whole Bing was a mass of corruption, defilement and falsehood; he knew it, had himself labored with ali his energy to place some of them In their present positions, and knew how almost Restitute they were, and then how rich dhey had now become, filling their pockets, as they had done, from the hard earnings of the colored workingmen, stealing irom them by direct and Indirect overwhelming taxation -a taxation which -could not be proved to be necessary for any honest purpose. - Mr. Harper's speech was a ?long and interesting one, and his arguments against the dishonesty and depravity of our present State Government were unanswerable.

It cannot be expected of a newspaper v, is published In a community composed i verse nationalities and Interests, and ht its principal object the advancement o prosperity of our whole city and State, ti should take a one-sided position with re to the war which is now progressing In Eu To report correctly whatever may occur o distant scene of conflict, to reflect on I events with impartiality, is all that can be sonably expected, all that should be de: from an American press. But, as the nal which are engaged in the tremendous stm are both largely represented In our midst, as their sympathies with either side are sci in proportion to the magnitude of the Is involved, you will perhaps not be unwlllln admit into your columns an expression of views, a declaration of the political fait reason for the sympathies and convictii which are entertained by both parties. " this supposition, I propose to offer a few marks on the causes of the present Europ war, from a German standpoint. I shall deavor to do so both candidly and temp?r?t for I desire to persuade, not to offend. Since the decay and final dissolution of German Empire In 1806. the chief objec aspiration, the dearest hope ot the Gern people, has been peacefully to form a uni Germany, liberal and harmonious In its inl nal administration, and strong enough to slat encroachments from abroad. By hold out the early realization of this just and no hope, the Princes of Germany rallied i youth and manhood of their country, fou< and won the battle of Leipzig, and drove 1 poleon I from German soil. But the Prim .oecelved their subjects after they had been stored to their thrones, reaction took pU after Waterloo, and the sovereigns, under t leadership of Austria and Its Prime Minist Metternich, united their efforts to force ba their subjects under the old yoke. Instead a 'inion ot the German people, a contederati of thirty-nine sovereign ?ri?ices was formed. I dependent from, and often hostile to, ea other in their internal affairs, and only unit for external defence under the hegemony Austria in the Diet at Frankfort. ' But liberty does not die, nor does a peor, abandon the pursuit of its Just and sacr rights. There was nothing to be hoped fro effete, reactionary, narrow-minded Austria, the nation turned Its eyes upon the young? more vigorous and more enlightened Prussl In 1848, the Germans proposed to restore tl German Empire, and offered the crown Frederick William IV, but that pusillanlmoi monarch, fonder of bon-mots and champagt than of the glory of his country and his roy house, declined the offer. Still the people, ni despairing ol the future, hoped, wrote, work? on for the accomplishment ot the union of a lands In which the German tongue ls spoke: Soon after, Napoleon III, by a coup d'?ta ascended the French throne. He publlshe the famous manitesto ..L'Empire c'est la paix but this very pretty phrase was. under the cl cumstances. a mere con tradiction ot terms an impossibility. Not that Napoleon was a together Insincere when he . uttered this h first oracle, but peace, continued peace, wi impossible for a French ruler who*ad seize the reins of power by violence. He had l offer an occasional sacrince on the altar of thi popular French divinity. "La Gloire,"in order I maintain his own prestige. So Intrigues ft weakening the hereditary enemy of his com try began. The Austrians were bled first s Solferino; Prussia was reserved for later tlmei Next came the Danish war. The inhabitant of Schleswig-Holstein (Germans by race am language,) were threatened with absorptloi into the Danish nation. They called on thel countrymen for help, and the sovereigns, Aus ir?a included, had to respond, whether the; would or not, for it was a national affair Meanwhile, the present King of Prussia hat mcceeded his brother on the throne. It woult ii most seem as If he had been especially re? served for the times. With strong tastes foi Military affairs-his witty elder brother usec n say o? him that William would have tnadt tn excellent drill-sergeant, had he beet )orn lu a private sphere-ail his effort; >efore and after his accession havt >een directed towards the perfection ol he military organization ol' his dominions, Lustria, though distracted at home and almost >ankrupt, continued her intrigues with the imaller German princes, and she found, in hei "ndeavors of keeping the Germans asunder, i ready and faithful ally In the Emperor of the French, because France, naturally enough, loes not like to have a strong and united ?elghbor at her elbow. These intrigues ou he part of Austria brought on the war of I860. Napoleon looked quietly on, for he hoped that he combatants would so weaken each other. ;hat the much-needed, much-coveted left >ank of the Rhine would fall an easy prey to lim; but to his horror, to the surprise of ?verybody, almost of Prussia herself, the hit? ler crowned a seven weeks'war with a de? cisive, overwhelming victory. This was Sapo leon's defeat a: Sadowa. The whole French nation was In a rage. They heaped execra? tions upon the Prussians, vowed to wipe them from the earth, to make the King of Prussia Elector of Brandenburg, Ac. And why all th te? Not because the Prussians were threatening Alsace or Lorraine, but because the consolida? tion of North Germany under the hegemony of Prussia had become an accomplished tact, and because there was danger that the South Germans might soon follow suit. The prepa? rations for war were begun In France Imme? diately after Sadowa; occasions for quarrel have again and again been sought hythe French, but carefully avoided by Prussia, who needed peace to complete the organization of the North German Bund; but at last a pretence has been found, In as muchas the King of Prussia has resented the Importunities of Min? ister Benedetti, by politely Informing him, through his ald-de-camp, Prince Radzvill, that he had told him all he knew about his poor kinsman Hohenzollern, and that he had noth? ing more to communicate. The Emperor Napoleon, whether personally willing or not, has drawn the sword, has at? tempted to invade Germay, to seize the left bank of the Rhine, with its old Imperial City of Alx la Chapelle and Its Cathedral of Co? logne. He has miscounted on the defection of the South Germans, who, however little they may love Fing Willian of Prussia, have proved true to their race, and now the Emperor of the French and his countrymen are experi? encing the natural consequences of attempting to lay violent hands on a peaceful neighbor's property. I shall not reter to the more fundamental causes of this great and all-decisive struggle, which would probably have made it necessary at some future time, had it not broken out now, to the antagonisms of race and religion, to the rad? ical difference in the whole character and mode of thought of the two nations ; as a Germau, I will simply say, that my countrymen believe that they have right on their side, and that their trans-atlantic brethren will win the tight, however long it may last, however desperate it may be, because they have drawn their swords in defence of their country, and for a still greater cause: for that freedom of faith and thought, for that rejuvenation ot intellect and of science, which was Inaugurated at Wit? tenberg by Dr. Martin Luther.

B Smith, John Howe, Bernard Lyons and John Morgan, privates In the Eighth Regiment United States Infantry, who were held as ac cessorles in the murder of Policeman Martin were brought before Recorder W. Alston Pringle, yesterday morning, on writs pf habeas corpus. Mr. M. P. O'Connor appeared In their behalf, and read the affidavits which had been made In defence of the prisoners at the Coro? ner's inquest, and moved that they should be released on ball, following his motion with an argument In which he claimed that they were not implicated in the murder. Mr. Isaac Hayne, Jr., who represented the State, answered, and the recorder decided that Bernard Lyons and J. B.

CALHOUN BRADFORD, aged 18 years and 0 months. The span of Hie, how short; the record, how brief. Life had just begun Us course, when closed by the pitiless shart of death. All the graces and virtues of youth were embodied In the fair and manly form of our young friend. Entering upon life's arena, all things wore a roseate hue, and a bright halo tinted all his dreams of future useful? ness, for sorrow had not curtained his young soul, nor chilled the ardor of opening manhood. Like a bright, golden summer day sped the years of his short lire, and calmly as a summer gale so sank our friend to rest. Dying from congestion of the heart, quick was the summons; few the moments in which to meet his mortal enemy, but calmly folding his arms across his breast, he faced his foe, saying, "Death has no terror for me,'' and gently, softly passed from the shores of time to ..rest beneath the palms on the other side of the river." "So fades a summer cloud away, So 6inks the gale when storms are o'er, So gently shuts the eye of day, Sojdles a wave along the shore." The mournful sob ls scarce hushed, or the bitter had cease to flow, ere the bleeding, wounded heart has been called to part with another loved one. GEORGE P. BRADFORD died in Charleston, S. C., July -, 1870. aged 2S years. In the char? acter of our. dear GEOEOS we And all that was admirable and excellent. A devoted son and affectionate brother, a true friend, a brave pat? riot; and to his many warm friends the announce menPof his death will carry sorrow and grief. He volunteered early In the war, when but a boy, but officers anti comrades bear willing testimony of his fearless condact dating the hard fought campaigns of Virginia, and honorable scars attest his dauntless courage on the battle-Held. Alas l that one so good, so true, should thus early run lils earthly course; but "death loves a shin? ing mark,'' and in meek submission can nls sor rewing family bow, knowing tha* "He doeth all things well." Dying In his native "City by the Sea,'' surround? ed by loved ones, he ended ?Ue's fitful fever dream. Forever cloted are those kindly beaming eyes; for? ever sealed those Ups, wonted ever to give a cheering word and gladsome smile to all. Long, long will our hearts with thy memory be Ailed when thou art sleeping on In thy dreamless, nar? row bed, and, like the sweet perfume of roses, will lt rise up to cheer us onward, upward, where, In peace, thou canst look upon earth's weary, tired sojourners, who long to sleep beside thy si? lent grave. The sands of life will soon cease to run out, and soon we shall take the narrow bed, and sink Into oar long, last sleep, as did our loved ones gone before. "Oh who could bear life's stormy doom Did not Thy wing of love Come brightly wafting through the gloom, Our peace-branch from above." . E. M. A.

That aar -ed the treatment of flff oe considered a proof that are verj . bard to ktii The lancet, caloiuei, canthartdes and drastic pur. gatlves were thea the order of the day. The pay? aldan played into the hands of tte apothecary, and the unfo-tunate patient-was drenched morn* lng, noon and night with prostrating medicines. We Uve tn a more rational and conscientious era. The importance of supporting Nature In Its conflict with disease ls now understood. Complaints In themselves weakening are no longer aggravated by artificial depletion. They are met with TONICS that rally the vital powers and enable them to de? _ .1 feat the enemy. Chief among these allies of Na? ture, la its battles with sickness, ls PLANTATION BITTERS. This wonderful vegetable restorative is the sheet anchor of the feeble and debilitated. As a cordial tor the aged and decrcpid lt has no equal among stomachics. As a remedy for the nervous weakness to which the .tender sex are especially subject, lt ls superseding every other stimulant and nervine, lu all climates, tropical, temperate or frigid, lt acts as a specific m every species of disorder which undermines the bodily strength and br?ales down the animal spirits. Wherever lt ls Introduced lt becomes a standard article -a medicinal staple. Druggists, although their profit upon lt LS small, find lt absolutely necessary to keep preparation for which everybody inquires, and for which nobody will accept a substitute. It ls to-day the most popular medicine la the civilized world. Extensively as tc ts advertised, its best ad? vertisement ts the beneficial result which uniformly follows us use. Every bottle sold in? sures the sale of a; leas: half a dozen more. Un like other stimulants, lt braces and fortifies the system without .-setting undue cerebral action, Tue cheering elect which lt produces upon the mind ls cot momentary, but permanent. There ls no subsequent depression, it does not, as ls the case with aU other stimuli, beget a craving for ex? citants. On the other hand, lt soothes and calms the nervea.eomblning.strange as the anomaly may seem, taequalities of a sedative and gentle ano? dyne with those of a tonic and lnvlgorant. The perfect purity or all Its ingredients, their admirable adaptation to the purposes they are intended to subserve,' the judicious pro portions tn which they are combined, and the scientific skill wit* whica they are blend ed, reader this famous article at once the mos: potent and tie most harmless ci ali known tonics and alterstives.
