I have been absent from my jsost lor the last
three weeks, w hich has prevented Bay keeping JH0SJ
posted on afl'airs in this city. I notice that the
only news >ou hate at the North, as to the move?
ments here of the Walker aud Kiuney tnsops is
derived from uiy letters to your paper, aud that all
the Northern papers rep'iM'sh the same, but in
looking on er our exchanges I find very few ' ire
Tin: TUM NE credit for it.
We hate had a State Out etitiou of the American
party, which commenced its session t?u the "glo
rioiis eighth," and continued for several days Ihe
proceedings have uot beeu made public as yet, but
I learn that delegates were present from every
part of the State, mid all brought cheering news of
the progress of American principles, and there is
not a doubt iu my mind ol the success of the party
st the next Presidential election, bv a majority
lnre;er than ever given in this Btatt M any ticket
"wt presented. It it trie the Democrats elected
then GovttMl and r.tb. r State officers at the lata
? ? WCB, hut there wer.? at the 1-ast calculation,
? ver 4,11.1 American t..tert who had n * returned
to the state Irani their Summer trip Is the North.

in ti iiiation. It in certain a!i of the o!.i Wh g- w.ii

in this part of the country. The State Coareatiafl
wLiih I as just been held at .lacksoe, Mississippi,
was largelv attended and ft aVllfWBitOB iu favor of
I illriiore has been sent to the I nited Mates t on
eeajtfoa. I .'earn that in Alabama the I'illmore
stock ie WftJ above par. 'I he American party of
tbia city deeerre great credit for the noble stand
they have taken in their endeavors to close up the
:<.M0 grog shops on the sabbath, although the
lower Boaid of Aldermen have not )et agreed upon
the resolution pastes! in the upjier Hoard fsr the
annprestb n of the evil.
I have no doubt that at the March election we
shall ein I r. large majority of good men who will
put a stop to the numerous murders which hire
Icr sr me time disgraced our city. These murders
can all be traced to the IlifltlQIlOC of the demon
ram, and we cannot expect to have good order aud
a rjuiet city until these low Irish doggeries are
closed, 'ihe disorder which runs rampant on the
Bsbl ftth in these boles is a disgrace to any
civilized con munity, and DO decent person can be
pnvaibd upon to rent a house within gun-shot of
where they exist.
i he last Stenn,er took down a large number of
cniigiants far W ali.i r and Kinnej, ami the steamer
leavitjto-morrow will take a handsome oelegation
to the new bepeblic of Atnerieaas. No Irishman
ia permitted te enlist. Atnoag the pftseeagera who
I leave us tomorrow for Oranada is ('barb s Calla
hsii, for many )ear? one of the editors of The
Picayune. He goes down as special correspoudeut
for The Picayvn?, and we may expert to MO ft
faithful account of affairs iu the prontited lend
published in that paper. I have not yet received
Hi litters from Granada brought by the steamer !
which arrivid last night but I learu thtt the men
?the have gone from here are all satisfied with the

( OMPLAINT Of A ( OOE
To the r.ditvr oj Tke .V. Y. Tribune.
Sir : 1 see soiiielitiies in your paper " Letters from
" the People, and that you take the trouble to answ ft
them wl.cn tl.ev seed It: so I(ZlsmgM perhaps you
would kindly In lp me in my troubles; and being but
a plaift and ignorant jM-i-on, I need your help so much
the more.
I ma i.ot much accustomed to good isitnpany, being
mil m Ihe situation of nook inn family in the town,
bat I Irvtodomy best in the situation where I am
pissed, Sad have alwayi aer-oCiaUfd with reputable
people. Mv place is a good one ; my mistress is every
thing that is Kind and good, and tri. s to make BBS fael
an interert, and that 1 have a IssJSS with her.
Von may think that I have no need to complain, but
ladend everybody has some trials and perahiltsm,
and I in i d lii-i expect to be free. I do not know as
vou can help inc.
" l get up very nies dienern for the fami'y. for I a n
a good cook, and sometimes I steal up iu the pride of
mv heart to see the ditbeS paced on the table, aad
not toe bow everything is dooe to ft turn, and all isintlie
nie? st order. 1 aiwnjr find tl.e talde neatly laid, aad
on the c um is cither two or four decauters, wi'h
glares at each plate. The wine fcj placed on the table
usually by the mistress herself, aad carefnDy locked
ftp when It it done with, but I know that the de?
canters are now and then emptied and fresh bottles
arc brought up from the c. Uar. My nms'er takes a
glas.- or two of wine, and my mistress takes a glas-,
and If tbt y have a mead to dine with them, they tako
wine together by way ofoosmsniosebip.
I don't uuoti?n but they think they ueed it; Mr.
X. works bird and ernes up from down town tiled
and weniT. and Mrs. X. i- always bu-y, au 1 of en
look.- worn ont. But 1 wink very hard, too. 1 mutt
rise early and irake a fit? , and get a good breakfast,
and then'm mho Imnat there is always scrubbing
and cleaning, fat I must have things tidy about me;
and then there isa great disatrtO get, aud sometime<
for eompesry, ami tin- smell of the reeking takes away
my nninral appetite, ^o thut after roasting and frying,
and I okicg aud boi.ing, I am ofteu ready to drop.
II nt Mrs. X. iu v 11 -ay- to me, "Bridget, here is a
glassof wine." I don't "suppose she ever thinks that
what is so good for h. r, mig..t be geod for me, aud I
can't afford to bay wine. So I have done as sell a? I
could, and ;.ave bought now and then a little brandy
or gin to keep up my strength. ldoutd>ny that
once oi twice I have beta overcome by it, and f-lt a
trifle thtpj or SO, and eometimes I have f.-lt very
bappy, bat nobody ever thoogU it any barm to tot
my matter go totsten arter dinner, and sometimes
they laigh so load in the dinit g-rooin that 1 can hear
them nh the way to tht kitcl.i n.
But I began te think I was getting myself into
trouble, when one day a- I was passing the parlor d>s;
to go up stairs, end tomt ladies were calling, I just
bard they were tasking sheet their eoeha, (I shoahj
think they"could Dad more profitable talk.) and I heard
Mrs. X. says " I am really afraid that Bridget drinks,
?< allU that'l ahall have to part with her, ban I ?nv!l be
' Virv ftOtryi for she ia au excellent servant." This
la-t i nit aid not make the rir.-t any I a-: r to bear, and
I In gnu to qacstioa with niys< if whether I was really
iu cuv dai.ger.
\N mit I was thinking ul>out this, I went one even?

(Jrtakiag was bad. that alcohol sv a po:*? and lurt
ful in anv farm, and that wine was no better, because

The telegraph has played an imporUut part dur?
ing the past few lay*, and at the electric spark iu
F.i.iepe is less garrulous than in the I'nited State?,
the laconic and ortenMntradiotory dispatches have
ert. ttd gre:.t b <tle and cauaed a nio-t unusual
? \ .11.1.1 n I.i ii.li'ii. It was known on Moudav
that the Aliied Powers bad roj.vted the comiter
1 repositions of Russia sent by Count St.iekelberg
to Vienna?though the telegraph called them con
<?ili.it? ry?hut as their precise nature remained un?
known to the public, it was believed thai the *o
ealled wwariKatka was rather an nfatfion of the
Wettet! j n positions. The next dispatch an
m,.tc?d the fact that Austria reOBrafass firm, and
that Count Bad had announced t-> Prince Uor
cbakoff the official nipture between the Courts of
Vienna and St. Petersburg, unless the ultimatum
1a 14 M ptedbj the Czar unconditionally bj the l?th
but. In some contradiction with these tidiugs?
though not unexpected?was the dispatch im
mcdately following, that Austria has declared
to the Wetten Powers she could not take
the field in the prea-nt year, but that she
was preparing a starenient for the Cermanic
Diet, claiming the support of that unwieMv body
in the imp? nding struggle againsCRussia. Aga'o
there was a report that Austr.a is continuing her
mi diaticn when suddenly yesterday a few mittut? s

the Vii nna corrcpondctit that " Rusria has uncon

The funds rose immediately, though it looked
rather strange that Mr. Bird, the teacher of En?

cate such important i.ews to London in advance to
the ministerial organs. A great portion of the

to be aniil us to rend the dispatch of 7Vie Times
and to n ek the key of the riddle, since both the
Russian diplomatic circular of the vr-.M Docaanber

warrant a quite different surmise as regards the
policy of Russia. About It o'clock 'be ministerial
Morning Post issued a third edition with Sir Ham?

the report about their rise reached London just iu

it is scarce!) necessary to point to the oracular
double meaning oi the ministerial announcement,
wl.ii b mentions the unconditional acceptation of
the Western proposals by Russia at substantially
correct, assuring in the same breath that Russia's

otl.i r construction, and logically it is not probable
that l.'ti-s.ii should, immediately after her eouuter
propositioai were rejected, acc.de to the Western
pi i positions. The induction is therefore legitimate,
that it is the Western Powers who, upon sobor
afterthought, have come to the conclusion that the
RuBsiaB ci uiiterproposition contains the acceptance
ol the Austrian ultimatum?as the Western propo?
sitions are now called?for the basis of further ne?
gotiations. Louis Ponaparte in anxious to back
i nt of the war and of the intimate alliance with
England, and therefore w ishes to negotiate a speedy
[n a< e. by w hieb he might put himself on good terms
with Russia. Such a policy would not be unpopu?
lar in France, where tho conservative party is hos?
tile to England, and propagates the idea that the
French nation has no interesta whatever iu the
East which may be jeopardized by Russia, and that
Louis Ponaparte, in order to surrouud himself
with glory, carries on the war mainly in the inter?
est ol England, jialous of the Russian marine and
the Asiatic prestige of the Czar. They often men?
tion tin- anecdote of Madame de Pompadour, who,
a t en asked about the secret spring of all European
politics, replied: "AU I can make out is, that

" until the has got into war with that nation, and
? Derer Stops the war an til she has annihilated that

'to day's intelligence is little more precise than
yesterday's', We know now that the rumor of
|eace is founded upon a telegraphic dispatch of
Count Valentin?- KsterBazy, that Nesselrode has,
on the 16th, notified to him the unconditional ac
i t ptanee (iaeceptatwn pure et simple) of the prop
s.tiers contained in the ultimatum, vhich proposi?
tions are to serre as preliminaries of peace, still
ti e i ditorialsof the ministerial papers are not over
et alldfjnt, and recommend the coiitiuation of the
armtm?nts. As to the unconditional acceptance,
[| ia altogether illusory in this respect; and aa re?
gards the esnsJon of one-half of Bessarabia, Rus?
sia has not gi . en h>t consent to it, but declares she
di es not absolutely reject the principle of a ces?
sion "f territory, reserving to herself to treat the
ijiiistien in the conference^ which are to take
p ace. Russia further decline* to pledge herself
not to for'.itv the Aland Islands; even the question
of the neutralization of the Luxme has, sccording
to The Times, been only slightly and ambiguously
rnentioned. The Times, therefore, after having
made a handsome speculation by the dispatch of
yesterday, tells us now that after ail the announce?
ment is it at of an Austrian, not of an English diplo?
matist, and that he speaks from a point of view not
always identical with the English one.
1 be financial condition of France is not at all

The pa of Paris begins to show symptoms of

taken place. Though they cannot be aaid to be
serious, they still remain an evidence that the

about such a collision, the Archbishop of Milan,

Favia, and the Adininistratois of Coinoaud ( rema,

Considerable excitement is now felt iu Austria aa
to the result of their claim, w hich, if conceded ba?
the Emperor, is considered as a forerunner of
other more important ecclesiastical eucroacb
ii cuts as regards matrimonial and testamentary
legislation, since, accordiug to tbe Council of
Trent aud the Cauou Law, this falls within tbe)
?cope of ecclesiastical jurisdiction.. The Proteet
ants of Hungary are likewise in great distress, aa
it is rumored that the right of the communities to
elect their clergymen aud superintendents it to be
trnnsfernd from them to nn Imperial Board or
Cl i sistory, to be appointed by the Kinperor and
his Jesuit Counselors. The Government haa al
tondy usurped the right of dismissing at will Pro?
fessors of the Protestant < ?Heget, and haa abro?
gated the charters of all the educational establish?
ments unptovided with funds to an extent fixed bjt
the Government in an arbitrary way. Inquette
iuto the soundness of faith, and clerical proceed?
ings for heresy, have now reappeared iu Austria,
and though tho citil government has as yet not
countenanced these encroachments of tho priests,
it is the decision of the Emperor in the above
mentiooed case of the Lombard Bishops, which
will establish the form for all the officials, and
may band over Austria to the mcdifcval jurisdic?
tion of the Church.
TLe mortality at Vieuna is alarming. Last week
there were 1,900 and odd typhus patients io tho
hospitals; the insufficient food of the poor having
produced a malignant fever, which now is spread?

condition of the poor is punished by the sufferings
of the rich.
Tb? fall of Botet, lately doubted by sota*
papers, is confirmed by the last reports from Hin?
dustan; but it ia likewise certain that tho Kuler of
Cut ul, old Dost Mohammed, haa arranged his dif?
ferences with his brother of Candahar, aud joins
with him in a demonstration against Herat, aud
viitually against Persia. The Indian authoritiee
will probably support this movement by an expe?
dition into the Persian Gulf, since we hear that tho
Hi n. Augustus Murray, Her Majesty's Kinbaasa

Shah.
' Lord Bedcliffe, the old enemy of Turkey, now

to know that anything is certain?it ia curtain thai
we lire one week nearer to a European peace theo
at the date of my last communication. Not pos?
sessing that apocalyptic vision vouchsafed to moat
correspondents?not even being born of a Sunday,
nor cross-eyed, having no more penetrating eye,
corporeal or of the mind, then the simplest
"general reader"?it I? comes me to take oo
other than this purely chronological view of tbo
question that now occupies all minds, tongues aad
pens. If I write another sentence upon the ab?
sorbing topic of tbe day, it is only in my character
of Parisian reporter for Thk Tkibtnk, purely ae
chronicler of current opinions aud reports. X
have often enough apoken of their contrary and
confounded nature. They do not improve in this
retfteett No two well-informed circles gyrate
?? the same axis. Of the numerous "original
sources" whence dribble or leak, through news?
paper channels, or weak, diplomatic depositories,
adulterated facts and dilutee opinions, no two are
of equal muddiuess or shallownesa. The thirsty
public takes from all?each drinker adding often
aoroe new ingredient to suit hia own taste
Meanwhile nothing, abaolutely nothing, beyond
suggestion to the simplest guess-work, trans?
pires of its proceedings. Preparations for con
tinued war, on the largest scale, are preaaed
by all parties; our Ally, England, to judge
from its free press, is more than ever determined
to hold Bussia to rigorous conditions. And on tbe
strength of some such reasoning as is thus indi?
cated, the war-fearers refute to buy very largely
into the public stccks, which, though something
better than they were a few days ago, are still
purchasable at low rates. The Three-per-cents
