The Austrian and Hungarian Journals unanimously denounce Russia for her propo-ed violation of solemn treaty obligations. Tue French Journals treat Englaud's anxiety on the subject or Russia's renunciation or the Parla treaty as a just return for her indifference io the suffermgs or her former ally. The government here seems to give no at? tention to tbe incident. WAR MISCELLANY. Proposed German Punishment. The seml-offlclal North German Correspon? dent, the organ of Count Bismarck, contains the {blowing start ling paragraph: The necessity.aod Jus.Uce"oi making the authors r( a war, and nor, as hitherto, merelj their subordinates and tools, responsible for their own acts before the world, nave suggested the Idea in governmental circles .oj stipulating, as a pondi mon'Ot peace between France and Germanyr-that lue intellectual originators and. instigators of ?ti* the present war shall not escape with impunity. AmoDg the responsible parties are Included the entire executive which devised the luvasion of Germany ; the statesmen who approved lt; the ministers hy whom it w.. B recommended; the orators who la .bored for demanded and welcomed it; the Journ? alists whoso constant text was war, ana who discounted the triumphs or the contint: campaign. The verdict of "guilty" or not "guilty." and the penalty to be Inflicted, would be left to a jury composed of citizens of neutral States, supposing those States to lond the plan their concurrence; or. in case of their refusal, ?he Jurymen might be taken from the two beUgercnt nations them? selves. The Institution r? an international Jury for the punishment of ,ieace-?reukers is regarded in government circles r s likely to furnish no un? satisfactory gu?rante, for the future peace of Europe. Rassiaa.net Prussia Secretly Allied. The following statement relative to an existing secret treaty between Russia and Prussia lately appeared In the Moniteur Universel, and ls vouch? ed for by the editors, who declare In a letter to the London Times that "the Information is,guar? anteed in the most undoubted manner, and has the confirmation of one who by his rank and po? sition could not fall to be well Informed." It3 Im? portance ls apparent In view of the announce? ments made of a rupture between Bismarck and Ton Beast, and the demand of Russia for the* re? vision of the Paris treaty Which neutralizes the Black Sea: When the war broke out between France and Prussia, the Erapeior of Russia declared to the French Ambassador at St. Petersburg that lt was bis Intention to preserve the strictest neutrality, Sror. oed that Austria did the same. Austria, on er parr, had made a formal d?clar?t lou of neu? trality ; but, as her armaments were not even ad? equate to the usual peace footing, she commenced pushing them forward, although with her charac? teristic slowness, and only so as gradually to at? tain the normal strength. Russia took umbrage at this, and a few days after the declaration of the Emperor Alexander to General Fleury, the Russian Charge d'AHatres at Paris received In? structions by telegraph to see the Minister er For? eign Affairs, and to call his attention to the fact that the neutrality of Russia was conditional upon, and entirely subordluatc to, the Inaction.nf Austria. If Austria called out her reserves, Rus? sia would do the same; if. Austria increase; her artillery, Russia would increase hers. In a word, Russia won ld,un der all cl. cuni st unces, regulate her armaments according to those of Austria, and to avoid the two countries entering upon a course which could not but be attended with some dan? ger, the Russian Government appealed to France, so that by causing Austria to desist from arming, -Russian neutrality might be Insured. The Rus? sian i barge d'Affaire.-, even went so far as to ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs to declare that he would take no steps whatever having for their object-io bring Austria into alliance with France. (This occurred at the commencement of the war, berore the first reverses of the French arms, and when thc assistance of Austria was yet possible.) The French Minister replied "that he was not in? formed of the extraordinary armaments of Aus? tria, which seemed so to alarm the Russian Govern? ment; that, moreover, ir Austria was really arm? ing, he had no-pretence to remonstrate with the Cabmet of Vienna with, a view of obtaining the cessation of preparations which evidently could lu noway be directed sgalnet France. Besides, he did not see anything objectionable in Kur.-la arming on her part, if she? thought- flt, nor would he be any the more dispos? ed to make snch a course the object of diplomatic representations, for he- was pre suaded that such would in no case, on a quasi ion of this character, conduce to any alteration lu the resolutions of the Russian Government. As to the demand that he should declare lu advance that in no case would France seek au a Hi au ce with Austria, Buch a declaration at the com? mencement of a war would 04 at least inoppor? tune, and could not Justify itself sufficiently by the prospective neutrality of Russia." The Rus? sian Charge d'Affaires then added that France would, nevertheless. Hod such a course her inter? est and a certain advantage; for the moment that Austria declared against Prussia, that same in? stant would Russia take the field against Austria. "Then," replied the French Minister, "that ls be? cause you have a secret treaty with Prussia." That the armaments of Austria should have pro? voked similar movement lu Russia as a measure -of precaution could be regarded as a natural con? sequence, but the moment that Kassia declared her readiness to attack Austria, If the latter sided against Prussia, it became evident. that before the war a treaty had been entered Into between Prussia and Russia. And thia ls what I had happened, as has since been made manifest by the course of events. What are the clauses of this treaty r This question will naturally occur to all experienced politicians, and, although the two sovereigns have preserved absolute secrecy upon the reciprocal conventions, lt Is not impossible-to. determine what are the principal points. All who are acquainted with the traditional policy of Rus? sia-of the two Currents of opinion which divide that vast empire-all, in fact, wr.o can form au estimate of the various elements which at the same time constitute Its powers and Its weakness? es, will And no dliuculty lu foreseeing with what object the Emperor Alexander has bound himself by treaty to the King of Prussia. As Ito further developments proceeds, this question will doubt? less receive further attention. For tho present it may surfies to establish clearly, by Information, the accuracy of which ls guaranteed, that Russia ls In the Prussian camp, and that she ls there by virtue or a treaty Of which England would do well to seek to ascertain the clauses, so as to be able to anticipate their consequences berore lt ls too late to avert them.

The second day or the fair has been a splen? did success. From 800 to 1C00 visitors present, lt is universal y admitted to be the best Industrial exhlbltl n ever witnessed in North Carolina. THE GREENVILLE RAILROAD. .Visiting the Scene of Disaster. [From the Cofumbla Phoenix.] On Sunday morning last, we paid a visit to the scene of the recent fatal disaster, on the Greenville and Columbia Railroad; and alter a careful exam in a ti n, In company with several ex? perienced railroad mon. unconnected with the company, we are forced to the conclusion that the accident resulted from the .breaking or a wheel on the tender, and that the com pan v is not in the least blameable. As the broken tender fell upon the trestle, lt caught in the cross-ties, dragg? ed and smashed the timbers, and the cars crowd? ing forward, the whole structure gave wav wiih a sudden crash, precipitating a st- ck ear, (loaded witn nlneieen hesd or cattle,) baggage and express car, second-cia-s and llrst-class pas? senger cars into the chasm. Tse forward truck or one or the new first class c ?aches went over, and the end of the esr stuck lu the ground, tut, owing to its great M renell, it was only partially broken, and remained wedged, preventing Hie rear passenger car rrom going over, and thus, doubtless, saving the lives or many of the passen? gers. The sudden jerk threw the locomotive off thc track just beyond Hie trestle. Passengers on board state that the train was running at the ordinary speed before reaching Hie trestle, and they reel positive that speed was decreased. The wood with which tho trestle was built was examined and round in good order, aud ali, wiih tue exception or the broken timbers, were used In re-erectlng the structures, though they have on hand large quan? tities of material, as the entire road is being .over? hauled. The trestle was over 100 reef. In length and about 25 reel high in the centre, lt had been overhauled last year, and new timbers put In where lt was deemed necessary. The proof of, Its sirength was the safe pa-sage or the locomotive the heaviest portion or the train-across the tres? tle, and it was only thrown off by the Jar or con ?usslon of the faileu train.. Aa old car belonging to the South Carolina Railroad was smashed into thousands of pieces. The damage has been re? paired, and trains now run straight through with? out deta-nlou. There was actually no Interrup? tion to passage, and there was a transfer at the break. The ottkera of the road have been unre? mitting In their mentions to the injured. THE RECENT STATE FAIR.

ITALY AND ROME. Absolute Freedom of thc Pope's Move? menta. The Italian Government has addressed the following circu? ir. to Its diplomatic agents abroad: Sir-His Eminence Cardinal ABtonelll has ap? plied to several courts for Information as to whether the Pope wou d be free to leave Rome and to go back to lt at his own pleasure. This ap? plication of the Cardinal Secretary of State Having been brought to my knowledge by some members or the diplomatic body, I have Immediately answered that Italy naturally wishes his Holi? ness tu remain at Rome, for nowhere else would the Pontiff And himself surrounded by greater respect and regard, and nowhere else could he enjoy greater freedom in -the discharge of bis spiritual functions. If, however, other Ideas were to prevail in the Council of the Holy Father, the King's Government would certaluly reglet, but lt would alsj respect, thc Pope's determination. Most assuredly tue Idea or exercising any indu euee un the deliberations or hts Holiness has never crossed our minds. Such^an idea would be contrary to all our prccedeuts, and to our well known polUlcal programme. The Pope can, there lore, abide lu Rome, or repair to Cartel Gandolfo, to ci vi ta Vecchla or eb-ewhere. He may quit Italy or return. Thc only observation I took the liberty to and to my answer was that if his Holtness made up his mind tu leave Rome lt would be de? sirable that he should do so.In a public and free manner, for, considering the full liberty enjoyed by his Holiness, there would be no reason why fis should expose himself to the Inconvenience and fatigue of a secret Journey. Whatever may be the d?termin?t on of the Holy Father, neither the government nor the people would ever rall to sur? round bim with all the honors and all the proois of respect which are due to bim. -On Saturday Mr. James H.

A Remarkable Han, Colonel James Hagood. ^Ji'? was desperately wounded In the accident on the Greenville and 'columbia'Railroad which took place hist week_ died lu Columbia, on. Tuesday morning. A faint hope was entertained of hts recovery, and this heightens the pain caused by the tidings of Ma untimely death. Fud of hope and courogt, a hero in peace no less than in war, in, him the State has lost a sou of whom site might well be .proud, and to whom she might confidently look for aid tn her every'hour of trouble. ' ' The following sketch of the life of the dca i sol* dler of the. South Is taken from the Columbia Phoenix: . , Colonel Hagood was a remarkable man. and led a remarkable career. Born lu Barnwell, . < nth Carolina, he was the son of that highly este? med citizen. Dr. Hagood, and the. brother of Gen ral Johnson Hagood, one of the firmest, truest ?iud best generals that South Carolina and the Cu ...del Academy gave to theConfederacv. from his childhood, Colonel Hagood. wjis characterized by unusual insensibility to fear. When a mere child, after some ghost stories bau Inspired the usual feelings m bis little compan? ions, he expressed himself as entertaining n<> fears whatever. Whereupon he was challenge togo Into a neighboring cemetery.and pluck som" moss from one of the graves. He repaired to tho spot and returned vvlth the plucked moss. This we mention as a characteristic Incident of his childhood. During - his .-boyhood/ he was -noted fortis Tabust sense of honor^-lor his rigid ad? h?rente to" the right "Boys," he would say, "th IL 's not right, and we must not do lt." To ung Hagood, upon reaching the proper age, became a cadet In the Sontb Carolina Military Academy , lu which bis brother, General H&good, had graduat? ed with the first honors of lils class. His restless longings for the strife In which lus State was em? barked, led hun to leave tberMaoeful shades of the academy for the fields of war. He entered the First South Carolina Infantry, Bratton's Brig? ade, as a private; rose to be captain, and was promoted over eight senior officers to be colonel of bia reglment-thls unusual promotion being made by the President of the Confederate States, for distinguished gallantry on the battle-field. --At the time he was made colonel, he was but nineteen years old, and his promotion came on his nineteenth birthday. We deem lt unnecessary to n?rrate at length his military services, suffice it to say that he made his regiment one or the best in the service, and that hts power or command and of attaching his men te his person were marked features of his military career. He was cool, sagacious", res? olute and daring. Tender and gentle in camp, he was a thunderbolt in war. He survived the war with a brilliant record-the youngest colonel In the service. After the: war ended, colonel Ha? good entered the foreign naval service aa a sailor before the mast. Here be soon rose to the post of second mate, and was In the line of rapid promotion when he returned to his native State. He next became engaged In planting In connection with his brother, General Hagood. But his enterprising spirit aspired to more ambitious employments. He determined to seek service in Egypte Furnish? ed with the highest certificates by ex-President Davis, General Lee and otheis, he was expecting a commission from the ruler of Egypt, when ho received his death wound. At the time of the ac? cident, Colonel Hagood was on his way to Colum? bia, to attend the meeting of the survivors' Asso? ciation*. On the occasion of the accident, hts presence of mind did not abandon him. Although desperately wounded In the head, with his own. hands he bound his handkerchief around the gaping wound, and then movjng ot, fainted. away from physical exhaustion. He recovered. from this state, and was conveyed to Columbia. At the depot Ms younger brother met him. ? Seeing him weeping at the sight be himself presented, Colonel Hagood said: "Lee, be a man, be a man. I am badly hurt, but these things will happen." To his elder brother he intimated that be fully appreciated Ms situa? tion, and received lt with a collected mind. During the days that he lived, there was some confusion of words, but none Of Ideas. He recog? nized all of his acquaintances, and knew that als father and brothers and friends were around him. He grew restless only as his death grew nigh. At I 6 o'clock on yesterday, he died-the day being hts twenty-sixth birthday. On his nineteenth birth? day he was made a colonel in the Confederate army. On Ms twenty-sixth birthday-Just seven yeare'preclsely thereafter-he died. ? PINE CLOTH INO.-Special attention ls Invited to the advertisement of Messrs. Menke A Muller, to be found elsewhere.
