According to the Tribune, the question of
the recognition of the Stale governments in
the lately rebellious States will shortly be
brought to a practical test. Measures, it
“ys, have been taken by prominent loyalists
in the South, and are now being perfected
under the advice of leading men in Congress.
The plan set forth is, that—
•■Loyal man, and they only, both black and whita, in
Arkansas, North Carolina, Louisiana and c-laevrhere, to
take steps toward the formation of a new government
liiaae loyal man, without respect to color, will shortly
issue calls in their respective States for State Conven
tions and elect delegates thereto; the Convention so
formed will frame State eonatitntinus embodying the
principles of loyalty, freedom and equal rights; will
5 1 ^^ U " a “ aelve8 ,0 11,0 payment of the national
debt, the repudiation of the Confederate debt, and the
“* fr “ h ahi * e “*“‘ ot the Confederate! This being
done they ^will then proceed to elect Governors, State
officers. Representatives agd Senators; the latter of
wnom wdl at once demand admission to Congress,
ine question thus being thrust upon that body
there is no doubt of the recognition of the Govem-
menta bo formed, and the administration of tlie loval
members so elected. A number of true and loyal men
or the south have been here some days consulting aud
deciding upon the best method to be adopted, aud
have determined upon the plan presented above, have
left lor their bomea to oarry the same into execution
the matter has been kept very quiet up to this time,
out &m the movement in most of the States is now well
under way, no harm can, and perhaps much good
may be done to the Union cause bv giving the facts to
the public at this time. ’’
In other words, says the New York Ex
press, here is a plan to overthrow the present
State governments at the South, to get up a
civil war in the States, to bring classes and
sections into conflict, to interfere with Slate
governments by interposition from Wash
ington, on the part of Radical members of
Congress, and other Radicals, aud to upset
society, labor and order, generally. AVe
trust the President of the United States, who
is sworn as well to support the constitution
of the United States as to execute the laws,
will defeat this well-planned deviltry of the
Radicals. Its immediate and pressing object
is to keep eleven States out of the Union,
but its ultimate object is to bring on a civil
war at the South, and just such a war as
was threatened in South Carolina when the
Lnion and Nullification parties came so near
destroying each other iu 1830.
Tho Daily News, alluding to this revolu
tionary scheme of the Radicals, 9uy 3 Mr.
Henderson has paved the way for the suc
cess of the enterprise, by a resolution deny
ing and discrediting tbe authority of the ex
isting State Governments in the South.
We sincerely trust that no serious design
of attempting to put into execution such a
mischievous scheme as that set forth by the
Tribune is entertained even by the extremists
of the Radical party. If such an expedient
is really meditated, and if (he movement is
permitted by the President and tlie true
friends of reconstruction in Congress, we feei
confident, that no respectable portion of the
“true and loyal men” ot the south will give it
their countenance and co-operation.

Ispltsry Measures in Augusta.
M.yor M»y of Augusta calls upon the people of that
city to “put their houses in order” in view of the ap
preh.nded approach of the cholera. All decaying and
decayed vegetable and animal afibstauces are to be re
moved from the premises of each citizen daily. Gen
Branuan has placed at the disposal ot Mayor May 1
number of wagons, with drivers, to facilitate the re
moral of the filth. We expect from the well-known
energy and active solicitude for the welfare of the city
of our worthy Mayor simitar precautionary measures
will be inaugurated here at an early day.
The Late Spanish Rebeluon.—General Prim, the
leader of the late unsuccessful Spanish revolution, has
issued a proclamation stating why his undertaking did
not succeed. He relied on several Spanish regiments,
and two only came to hiB help. ■ After waiting for ten
days near Madrid, expecting the supp rt of the other
troops, the government forces assembled in large
numbers, and he was compelled to withdraw to Por
tugal. General Prim says, however, that he is not
vanquished, and does not intend to give up the contest.
His address concludes thus: “Courage, Spaniards!
the day of redemption ia approaching. A single vic
tory will lead to our triumph Liberty, progress, and
ibe national sovereignty forever 1 ”
The Recent Seduction Tbaoedt.—Tlie grand jury
of Lawrence county, Ind., have found a true bill
against Dr. Benj. Newland lor the murder of Professor
Evans, the seducer of the former’s daughter. He was
admitted to $40,000 bail, aud his trial appointed.
Miss Newland ia eighteen years old, but it is alleged
that ah. was seduced fire years ago. The funeral of
Evans took place last Wednesday, and was attended by
his wife and about seventy-five persons. The greatest
excitement .till exists In tho county.
Republican Victoby in New ILampshtue.—A des
patch from Washington, March 14, states that Smyth,
Republican candidate, has been elected Governor of
New Hampshire by over five thousand majority.
Tlie Dry Goods Market.
We leurn from the special report of the New York
Dry Goods Market, that tlie market has been very dull,
with a heavy downward tendency, during the last
week. Holders of goods have been willing to make
largo concessions to effect sales, while buyers have
been very cautious, taking even small lots reluctantly.
The jobbere have been selling many kinds of dtp
goods below manufacturers' prices. For instance,
standard sheetings have been sold freely for 25 cents a
yard by the jobbers, though tbe agents hold them at
26 cents, and seem indisposed to takeoff anything
Retail prices have been reduced very much within the
week. Jobbers begin to think that the spring trado
is broken up past redemption, as the season is so far
advanced without any regular activity of ’ trade.
Heavy'importetions continue, aud foreign goode are
pressed on the market at auction. Ooitoh ban dt
dined heavily, -and the tendency of pAA's is still
heavily downward, as goods are accumulating on tbe
market. i-. _
Heavy Robbery.—The hugest robbery which has
probably ever been perpetrated in this country wne
committed in Exchange Place, New York, on Friday
night, 9th inat. The safe of Mr. Lord, a largp-broker
and real estate agent, was entered and bonds and
securities to the estimated amount of $1,5000,000
abstracted. A reward of $200,000 lias been offered lor
the apprehension of the robbers.

Honix Panic xn Canada.—A Toronto despatch of
the 14th says that the Fenian furore was unabated.
There exista throughout the Province great panic in
monetary affairs, and, consequently, a run on the
banks. The government has come to the aasistence of
the banks with specie. *
Eclipse of the Moon.—An eclipse of the moon
will take place on the 30th and 31st of this mouth.
The beginning of the eclipse will bo at 9.30 in the eve
ning ; beginning of the total phase, 10.37; middle of
the total phase, 11.27; end of tho total phase, 31st
March, 12.16 a. m.; end of thu eclipse, 1.23 a. nt.;
duration of the total ecUpsc, ono hour amj thir
ty-nine minutes; duration of the whole eclipse,
three hours and fifty-two minutes. The phenomenon
of a total eclipse occurs so seldom we hope Uio night
of the 30th will be clear, in order that tho event may
be witnessed.
How England Tbeats the Fenian Convicts.—A
otter from Dublin has tho following in reference to
tbe convicted Fenians:
When O’Donovan and his five companions were
taken from tbe Mountjoy penitentiary in this city,
where they had been confined since their conviction
for transmission to Kingstown, aud there to be put
aboard a steamer for conveyance to England, they
were honored by an escort of a troop of dragoons tin-
whole of the way; but they were chained three and
three to each other. They had chains on their ancles
and around their waists, and iron wristlets. These
badges or symbols of degradation, together with the
gray convict dress, skull-cap, shaven heads and faces,
gave them a most l&meutabls appearance.
—At a recent bal masque at the Tnitleries, the most
spleudid figure of all the briUiant procession was that
of “America.” America was represented by Miss
Carter in emblematic costume, reclining in the ham
mock borne between two palmetto trees, and followed
by a long train of fair Americans attired in every va
riety of native costume.

Outrageous Conduct of the Negro Troops in
Galveston.—Tlie Galveston (Texas) Bulletin of tho
2uth ult. says :
” During the latter part of tho lust week we heard
many complaints made by citizens of the disorderly
conduct of negro soldiers. Tlie wives of several citi
zens were insulted, and a good deal of alarm existed
among those who were compelled to be jmt alter
nightfall. On Saturday evening thesebutfagi*
reached their climax, stimulated, no doubt, by tin-
terrible homicide of that day. During Saturday and
Sunday a reign of terror held sway over our city,
which lias not yet wholly subsided. YVo have heard
of twelve or 111 teen of these outrages which took place
on Saturday night, iu about ten of which 'firearms
were used, and in one case with serious and perhaps
mortal effect. ”

The Cause of Fever akd Ague.—In the January
number of the American Journal of Medical Science
there is a moat valuable discovery announced by Dr.
J. H. Salisbury. He bas satisfied himself that thu real
cause ol fever and agne, in what are called malarious
districts, is to be traced to a plant called the " Aqua
Falmella," cue of the low-est knowu forms of vegeta
ble organism. The spores and obloug cells of tfibi
plant are, it seems, elevated by the exhalations rising
up from the heated earth in the night, when Are Atmos
phere has become cooler. The breathing in of these
spores is said to bo the cause of the fever and ague.
Indeed, it would seem that they possess a powerful
medical effect, useful to tome-constitutions predis
posed to consumption, for instauce—yet destructive
to others, through the levers produced. It is gup-
posed that, by proper arrangements, the knowledge of
these facts wifi lead to the extirpation of the plants iu
many regions, and a more proper treatment oi the
disease. It will thus tend to render places habitable
by white men, where before they could not sabaisL—
