moderate thaw saved the wheat from being

ancholy dnty on account of the short time which
remained to him in this country. He had for
warded his resignation to the United States some
eight or ton days since and be believed his place
would be henceforth filled by a gentleman, a
scholar and ahumano chnKtiap iphd, who would
do all that lay in his power to cement friendship
between tho two countries, and who would, ho
believed, doind'flnt of bis Office with distinction

wishes for national advancement. Thb United
States would never allow their Minister to haz

the United States were dissatisfied with the Con

Nebraska, The first instalment'bf this colony
got off a couple of days ago, and wiU probably
be delivered before this is printed.. The nuclei.
of two other colonies—one for Georgia and one
for Virginia—are now forming; A large tract
of land' has been secured in Georgia tor one
party, and thejmanagers of the others are mak
ing arrangements for the purchase of about 12, T
OOO acres uTYlrginra; not very farjxom Rich
mond. Another suspicious featnre of this colo
nizing movement iB the giving of calohpenny
names to the associations. Thus, one -is called
the Excelsior Colony, another the Manhattan
Colony. This.makes one think of the building
societies and*various'kmdred' swindles gotten
up. in. New . York, in the past fifteen, years to
pocket the money of the laboring classes. The
colonies now organizing may turn ont wetbL-I
know nothing against any one 'connected with
them, and I am sure tho ostensible objects they
have in view are good. There are hundreds of
families dragging out an existence in New York
who would be immeasurably. better off in the
country, and this movement offers them a good
opportunity to-get away.* J We eould spare at
least 100,000 persons, and be better off without
them. ,-AD ,KAtfS£i.YA£l .
We have heard nothing of the tract of land-
said to have been secured for such an object in
Georgia. It is a great misfortune that these
movements should be controlled and manipu
lated by speculators in their own interests, when
there is not, so far as immigrate to the Sonth
is concerned, the slightest n^ssity for any
such intervention. Let Northern laboring men
make their own purchases, and then they will
have but one price to pay, and that a small one.
Intxevxetwing. — The Hearid's Washington
correspondent caps the climax of the “Inter-
view” business. On the 23d, he busied himself
running alternately to Abbott and .Sprange,
while -they were f righteningtbemsrfve^ with the
possibility of a personal collision, and jotting
down in three mortal. columns the petn^int es
capades of the belligerents. . That fe the latest
development of newspaper enterprise. •
Attack on President
. Grant. ..1 ;i ., ;* { ■ |
l/Voa» tht Nete York Sun.]
A telegram eent all the, way from Wi
to the Commercial Advertiser announces that
the hostility of the Sun to General'Graii(’a ad
ministration is attributed to our hot being ap
pointed Collector.
In the first pis cm we-are-inno wise hostile to
General Grant. We,are so friendly to him that
his frightful blunders and floundering* have
given us the same pain and anxiety which, we
believe, they have occasioned' to all his sincere
friends. Even the enthusiastic Senator Spragne,
in his eulogy upon Gen. Grant last Tuesday eve
ning, prefaced his prophecy of a brilliant future
for tiro President by admitting frankly that his
star had paled in the beginning.
Next, we have to add that we have never said
anything of General Grant so severe as the in
timation of the Commercial's correspondent,
that he might have had the support of the Sun
for the miserable sop of the Customshouse, and
didn't secure it! That would make him out a
fool than anybody, even his bitterest
enemy, ever represented him, or believed him
tribe.' ■*• ' ; •; *.*. ! *. '
■This reminds us of A story told of Grant ont
in Ohio, where he was. born, and which every
*S? *9W* ‘“ifff#-..
that when Ulysses was a boy, old man Grant
[said to him one day:
jet on that horse and ride him
down to neighbor Blank’s, and tell him" that I
-want to swap horses with him. Here is. fifteen
dollars. Take that. Swap even if-you can; and
if not,' offer him; fifteen dollars tri bpqt”
I;..Ulysses mounted, and whether he j 4 Taught)
•Dave to pace” on the way or not we are not in,
formed. But, arrived at the place of destina
tion, he found neighbor Blank, ' and delivered
himself thus: * -u. • .
“Father sent me down here to trade horses
with you. He told ine to swap even ifi yon
would, and if not, to offer you fifteen dollir; to
boot.” ' . . • ■ !
We suppose the correspondent of the Com-
mercial believes this story.
I i TuE'New York.Tribune calls upon the report
ers to give ns next fall the cost of the traveling
expenses of the different committees of Con
gress now about to start ont on their summer
excursions. The Tribune saj-s : ‘"These tours
Are torange froin NprijYoJfc to New .Orleans
