Lemma Western journals declare that the free-trader) will presently move upon tbs works of the spoliators, "terrible as an army with banners." _ * Thi Buffalo Courier thinks that "there is more real life and spirit to the movement of the Western 'granges' than to all the other politios of the Union aided together.” Pans-u proposes to doal with strikers in a Biauatekian fashion. A law has recently been snooted there to make the violation of contracts by wotknv n with their employers a criminal oJrnae. Aocoonmo to the Chicago Trlbnno all the ad ministration papers in Iowa have been instmot- ed to prononnea the farmer's movement a fail- ire, and lo lament it with tears. The failure is hi not making nse of tho machinery of ths Be- pabilotn parly and purifying it. Brxjiwm BnTr.ru Is now fairly in the field for the office of Governor of Massachusetts, and two-thirds of all tho voters in the State are fearing that be will win. This looks queer, bnt mast be true, judging from the howl of indig nation railed over the mention of his name. Tbx farmers of Illinois are going to have a Fourth of July of their own this year. They hare decided to set apart the day for a freo die- camion of the evils whloh oppross them—read ing, to the plaoe of Mr. Jefforson’s document, a new Declaration of Independence whloh their rxeentivc oommitteohas jnst issued. Tot Portland (M line) Argns, discussing the firmer* organization, says: “That movement, whloh la sweeping throngh the Western States as never movement did before, will cro long reach New England and Maino. Tho same causes exist here, and tho same necosslty will impel to action. A people's movement will come, and it will be irreeistible." Scrnnux Liw.—The Chicago evening Jour nal denonnees the common law of England as being the ontgTowth of monarchical institutions, and not tatted to this free and glorious country. The Journal, like tho Aikansas lawyer, "doesn’t want any British common law, sir; wo want the home-made article, sir, and not common law, neither, bnt the beat that is kept in the shop, air 1" ________ A urn) from New Orleans says thoro Is almost aa severs a blockade of tho Mississippi outlets now as when tho United States fleet cruised off its month; \hat the passes are always obokirg with detritns, and each year in- oreaaea tbs difficulties of navigation. Congress has made appropriations for experiments in dredging, bnt the tow-boat monopoly actually oonapirea to prevent successful prosecution of tho work. la a wroowxn a married min ? The authori ties of Oiford University recently refnsed a fel lowship on tho ground that, being a widower, he was not unmarried ? It was s hard case. Toe poor man had tost his wife and his fellow ship too. Bat the E irl of Pembroke afterwards decided that a widower i< nomirried, and gave him the fellowship. Whloh is right? If a widower is not an unmarried man, would he not bs gailty of bigamy were he to marry again ? A TTr.'onarmoaL Diotcui-ty.—The Cali fornia people are wondering how they shall vote. The new election law is very particular in re quiring that the tickets shall be 12 inches long, tad that the printed matter shall be “single leaded” and in long primer type. Now, In San Francisco, alxty-two officers are to be voted for, and their names and those of the offices which they seek esnnot possibly be printed on s 12-ineb ticket to legal form. It Is simply a typographical impossibility, sndif the oodo man- nfactnrera had consulted some printer before meddling with what they did not understand, they would have escaped the perpetration of s grave absnrity. Fisas ast> Huiboix.—A moral, says the Louis ville Courier Journal, can be to and occasionally even In a Long Branch letter. Only two sum mers ago, said one, James Fisk and Hembold bad the most elegant, or, rather, mast expen sive carriage* at the Branch. Each afternoon Fiek, in his carriage glittering with varnish and gilt ornaments, drawn by (our horses, two blaek and two white, attracted the attention and shocked the good taste of thousands of those who saw him there. Usually, he was atone, bat sometimes that brazen, painted wo man who caused his death, sat by Lis aide.— Everybody looked, bnt very few were so mean or pour as to da them homage. Helmbold’s team was etill louder. Be was ever seen by tha aide of his wife, who was a very pretty woman. Ttstrxaiscr Lkhslitiox.—'The New York Journal of Oommeroe, commenting upon tho action of the temperance party in that State in attempting to enforoe temperance principles by penal legislation, says: We believe that the oraring for at least the occasional use of some form of alooholic stim ulant is 60 general that it is better to establish at once a relish for some fight and compara tively innocent beverage than to endeavor to rear a generation to abstain wholly from snch stimulants. But even if tho total abatinenoe la the true theory, and likely as a whole to se cure the largest number cf sober ottxens, we hold that if is better to obtain the voluntary pledge by persuasion in eeob ease, and to in duce the Individual self restraint, rather than to enforoe it by endeavoring to prevent the sals under prohibitory statutes. The Third Term Parly. The advocates for re-electing Gen. Grant to a third term are said to be moving very quietly, bnt very earnestly and todnatrioi-Iy. The proposition is a distracting one in two Impor tant particulars. First, it is a serious offense to such of the party (chiefly of the file) as have some lingering respect for an>hority and piece, dent. They don't like to see quite all the tra ditions and nssges of tbo past swept away, and "its happens to be the last one of them left. Then, on tho other hand, there is a consider- able clasa of leaders and fuglemen who spit at the proposition. Some of these want to be President themselves, and talk solemnly abont “rotation to offloe." Bnt more of the class are laboring under a sense of Blighted importance. Their “claims" have been overslaughed or un dervalued. They are not half the men they ought to be to a Radical administration, nor half the men they would be if this system of sbonlder strap, epantet and cock tail feather administra tion oonld be laid on the shelf with Grant. They are Tired ont and digusled with the jingle of side arms end spurs on the msrble floors of the de partments, and Jong for the re tarn of the su premacy of civrilfrftr. These are moat determined antagonists to another nomination of Grant, and'are fighting off early and industriously with all their a to iler about too mu oh whisky and staggering in pnbllo places. They represent' that General Grant will infallibly be bnrnt ont or bring shame on the oonntry from excessive absorp tion before a third term shall have expired. On the other hand, the Grant men say, it is Grant or nobedy—at least no Radical man. Ontolde of Grant they have got no candidate and no assnracce. Blolno is perhaps the best man; bnt Blaine lives way down East beyond sunrise. Morton is the embodiment of all the e violent sectionalism and lawless legislation the paat ten years, and is physically, os well politically, exploded. There is nobody bnt Grant: and Grant must stand for a third raoe, “ we are whipped. 1 ' It’s plain as the nose on man’s face. We can't meet this farmer’s movement but by rallying strong on the old anti-slavery and anti rebellion pas nous and traditions of the party. We must take Grant, sir, or do a great deal worse. A Plea Tor Female “Educators.” In a very interesting oommonioition received from an estimable lady, herself an cxoellent teacher, occurs the following passage: Cuttom has provided no honorable or re spectable employment for the support of the belplers female bnt one, and that is touching, and I do tbtok, that notwithstanding the thou sands of occupations offered man, who is fitted to cope with the world, it is a matter of aston ishment that so many should fill the school room to the expulsion of the females. Women can't do what man can, and who are better adapted to train and expand the yoang mind than tho mothers and slaters of the youth of the land.” This is well stated, and to a certain extent, eminently true. In the inoipient training of children, especially, where pstlenoe, tact and intimate knowledge of their tittle wants and aspirations, are so essential, no one is so export and successful as tbo jndioloas and oonsoien- tious female instraotor. And, again, none oan be fonnd better qualified by precept and exam ple to mould and shape the minds and oharao- ters of onr daughters, than sbs, who with in stinctive skill oan fathom their hearts and in clinatlons, with far greater snooess thin the ruder sox. In the government and instruction of boys of advanced years,. however, masculine agenoies and sterner measnros may be neoessary. Bat at least in the primary departments of onr pnb- lio schools, and tho rooms devoted to female pnpils, ednoated ladies might be employed with the happiest remits. And fortunately, or rather unfortunately for them, the disastrous c-ffaots of tbo war have left no other means of support to thousands of the noblest and most gifted of tbo daughters of the Sonth. Sorely the appeal in their behalf will not be unheeded by the Oonotv Boards, and those oharged with providing for the instruction of the yonth of Georgia, whether in the common schools of tha conntry or the endowed foundations and seminaries which have been established by private manifiosnoe. Lot ns utilize tho virtue, talents, accomplishments and gentle breeding of thora noble women for the good of the commonwealth, and at the ssms time choer their hearts, and perhaps aid them in the support of indigent and aged parents and relatives, by atfording them employment as teachers in preference to all others, when prac ticable. Is there a Southron or patriot who will not heartily respond amen to this pioposition ? The Card of Sir. Kendrlcb. Wo find ths following in the Atlanta Borsld ' the 24th instant: To the Editors of the Heralds As yonr correspondent “Hoosier,” in yonr issue of the 21st, has seen fit to reflect on my conduct at the bar dinner to Macon, please ollow me a word of explanation. Being in Macon at the time, I was invited by a yonng member of tho Maoon bar to attend this dinner, and did so. 1 did not make the toast attributed to me. Nor did I utter any sentiments disrespeotfnl to onr excellent Chief Magistrate. The reporter, in the closing hours of the festal oeeasion, very naturally misunderstood me, and if Ibed known that his report of my toast would be construed as a slur at Governor Smith, I should have asked for a correction at once I knew nothing of tho disappointment which critics have (I think hastily) attributed to that eminent gen tleman, ex-Governor Johnson. In fact, I hardly know which to admire most, tho compeer of Stephen A Douglas or the man f iron integrity, now the Governor of Georgia Joint B. Kexdsicx. Atlanta, June 23, 1873. The foregoing manifesto from onr “ Atlanta distinguished guest” follows suit in tbo attempt > saddle upon the oity editor or local reporter, _ modest, capable and most popular gentleman, tho quasi odinm of reporting the oelebrated bar dinner. We have already relieved him of tho imputation. Now comes, however, the afore said volunteer convivielUt and declares "Idid not make the toast attributed to me” The writer can only say in reply, that he made no note of the gentleman’s gushing effusion, and intended' no comment thereupon. But to his own sanctum that night hs was waited upon by a friend of Mr. Kendrick and requested to pub lish his toast, which he affirm) was done truth- fu2g, so far as it oonld bs recalled, and we be lieve to the satisfaction of his friend—nay, more, some of the first gentlemen of the bar understood him as we did; and it may be that cannot himself remember his sentiment, uttered as it was “ in tho closing hours of a foetal occasion." There is a delicate insinua tion that tee hsd taken too much wine. This u be pardoned, however, on the hypothesis v ._ is hot affirmed in his case to be fact) that men to their cups think all others in a like predicament Onr card vindicator manages likewiie to steer his craft between Scylta and Ohirvbdis very cleverly, and shows how it really possible to “ hold with tha hare and inn with bounds.” Thus, in Macon, Judge Johnson his Ajax and the “coming man" for Gov ernor. At Atlanta, the present Executive is the great mogul,” and to doee not know “which .j admire most, tho compeer of Stephen A Danglass or the man of iron integrity, now the Governor of Georgia.” “ Thom’s our sent! mints too, eggseeriy." 1 the! was 1 Crops—A Blot. Mr. T. J. Linier, tfce general traveling agent of the Tu.ro nirn axo Mzssctam, writes ts fol lows lrom Camilla on the 24th: The crops in this section are growing rapidly from the effects of the hot weather we are hav ing now. Cotton has improved wonderfully since the rains ceased, and the farmers are put ting forth oil their might to rid it of what grass there is left. The prospect for a crop has bright ened very materially since the rains were de luging the conntry. Corn is remarkably good, as also potatoes, pess, etc. The usual quiet of this pleasant place was disturbed by a lively rpw, caused by a party of men making an assanlt on tho town marshal. No damage was done, however, bnt the parties making the tsaeuit were "caged.” not being able to give the required bond for their appear- acee at court. An adjourned term of the Superior Court is to tension here. THE GEORGIA PRESS. CoSSChIDATIOff OF THE CoHSTITtmOX JUtD Sra.—Tte Atlanta Snn of Tuesday is the last issue of that paper. It announoea its consolida tion with the Constitution. Mr. Stephens says he will still retain an editorial connection with the united papers. Killed et Lightxiso.—The Constitution says there was a sad occurrence in Camming yeeter- evraing. Daring a heavy thunder storm Mr. J. W. Smith, a worthy citizen of that place, was struck by lightning and instantly killed. There were several trees in and aronnd there literally tom in pieces, but little other damage was dons. Edccitobs' Coxvxxnox.—This morning at tbe Legislative Hall, at the invitation of the 8'ate Commimioner of Pnblio Schools, the va rious oonnty Boards of School Commissioner*, will hold a meeting. Prof. On has brought ihese gentlemen together for the purpose of in- terehongirg views on the subject of'education and to a .certain the wants in the different oonnties and school districts. No donbt the meeting will be a very Interesting one, and will redound in all probability to the advancement of the system of pnblio instruction throughout the whole State. Tm. MillzegevillzUsios.—The Union and Recorder aoorti the Atlanta Herald for calling it the Milledge-rille Onion. The Onion is the prince of a gallant and glorious tribe of vegeta bles and abont the only safe one In cholera times. Let the Union be consoled. If the Herald had called him a cabbage-head—a pump kin—or a dead beet, complaint would be in order. Kzv. E W. Wabbzs.—Tho health of Pastor Warren, (ssys the Christian Index of Thursday,) steadily improves—though he may not regain sufficient strength to preach for several weeks. Cncra—Opelika to Mostocmxet —Oar trav eling correspondent (says the Colnmbn3 Snn of Tnesday) writes ns from Montgomery, under date of Sa'nrdsy. that the crops on the line of the Western Railroad, from Opelika to Mont gomery are, with but few exceptions, badly in tbe gross. Hands S6em to be sosree, and bnt few fields are aa yet fatty cleaned np. Com looks well, and some of the ootton is in fine order. The oat crop is pretty generally har vested. Not more than ten bands were seen at work on any plantation, although three to five times that number are to be seen on the plant ations in Russell county. Bob Flonrnoy was working sixty hands la t'wetk in one field. ExcnutoES.—The Savannah Advertiser and Republican of Tnesday has tbe following: The Maoox TxLxonAPn, in view of the new postal law which goes into effeot on the 1st of July, says: “Let the dailies exchange with with each other even—let the weeklies be snb- ecribed to and paid for by the dailies, and then let the weeklies be permitted to receive snch Georgia dailies as they chooso to order at abont cost—postage in alt cases to be paid at the of fice where reoeived ” This is ex icily the plan adopted by the Ad* vertiner and Republican over a week ago. Nearly every paper in this Slate has signified a willingness to co-operate. We can therefore aay, that It is the only plan which will work fa vorably, and we know it meets with general ap probation. The Macon Bar and Dinner Again. Editors Telegraph and iTusengeri “Pax" filed the bill regularly in the case, and Pax, non pro pace, filed the answer in yesterday’s iBsne of yonr paper, and I now claim the right to file a short replication thereto so that the pleadings may be fnlly madeep. “Pax” non pro pace commits tbe same mistake that was oomptained of, of the local (now editor,) that is, of substituting the commentary for tbe text. He pn'a “convivial oxoesses” in the plaoe of what “Pax" said abont how a good dinner should be enjoyed, (and it is more than likely that “Pax” was not half serious in what be did say about that.) But right here bo lugs in “convivial excesses,” os if “Pax” bad said that mine hosts of tbe Brown House were os celebrated in teincing their guests as they were in dining them. And in this way ths writer gets “Pax” into a predicament It tnrnsont to be a fixed fact that Pax, in broad daylight, mistook one of the old editors of the Teleobaph and Messes-ceb for their young local. Now if nothing had been said abont “convivial excesses.” perhaps yonr readers might have thought that the miBtske might be consistent with that “abstemeonsness and sobriety” for which “Pax" is as celebrated an tbe aforesaid editor. Bat after ibis finger board has been set np, where yonr readers “will class" “Pax” remains to be seen. Bat all badinage aside, I join issno with the writer in holding that in the ease under discus sion he has tho right to snbititnto the commen tary as the origioat text When an invited gnest at a feast to tbo abandon of sooial con viviality makes a remark that, as interpreted by the company, “calls down the house,” and whioh on eober second thought as thus inter preted might bo regarded as of qneetionablo taste, in snoh cose tbo reporter, in all con- M-i-ncc. ought to give the exact words of the re marks, and not the interpretation, as a substi tute for tho words used. Even althongh the writer is too “well known to be classed among those addioted to oonvivial excesses,” any other rate would impose unnecessary' restraint on the freedom and abandon of tho guests at snch en tertainments. Pax Yel Non. To tbe abov9 we bavo simply to say, that onr friend “Pax” splits hairs in true lawyer fashion, and tries to prove that there is a difference Twixt i ■raffle dim And tweedie-dee. We hold, in the ease alluded to, the remark and (he “interpretation” were to all ictents and purposes identical in snbstance and meaning. To deoeive is to mislead, to prove false to some trust or promise either implied or expressed Bnt granting that “tho sober second thought" made tbe remark S3 it really fell from the speaker's lips “of questionable taste,” what then ? How was the editor to know it on the very heel of the occasion? And besides, re porters shonld try to confine themselves to facts, as was done in the published proceedings of the dinner so tar as they were written ont. We submit that oar Governor’s friends have made a mountain ont of a mole hill in thier treat ment of this whole matter, and we trnat the fc- (nie ventilation of it will cease inconti nently. Cholera In Nashville. Chattanooga and Elsewhere. We copy the following from the Atlanta Con- stitution of yeaterday: Nashville, June 24, 1873. Tbe epidemio is abating, and all indications are more favorable. Only thirtv deaths are re ported to-day—nearly all negroes. The dis ease seems to be passing to tbe East, with a southerly dtflscUon towards Chattanooga. Chattaxoooa, June 24,1873. The cholera is undeniably increasing here, bnt it is obiefly confined to day to the vicinity of the Nashville depot, where it first originated. Its location emprises all, because tbe neighbor hood of the depot is one of the cleanest parts of Chattanooga. A little girl, aged two years, was attacked this morning, and died at 2 o'clock, r at. Several new esses are reported. Tae older cases are do ing well. Lookout. The Nashville and Knoxville papers are not issued on Mondays, and the Chattanooga Time3 of Tnesday morning has failed to reach ns. We gather the following additional items princi pally from the special dispatches of Monday's Courier Journal: Mestthis.—Sunday was dry and oppressively hot—tbe first day in a month without rain. There were only nineteen interments, of which nice were cholera cases, against eighteen of the day before. Five persons included in this re port died from eating pastry, an ingredient of which had been cooked in a brass ketb’e. The oook who prepared the dinner cannot live. Nine-tenths of the cases have been negroes or ignorant whites, who dwell in the low por tions of the city, and who indulge in stale veg etables brought by river from New Orleans; and the rest of tho cases were oocasioned by too free an indulgence in ico cream and other trash. When medical attention is called in time tbe pa-iect invariably recovers. The cholera reports from along the railroad lines leading ont of Memphis are very gloomy. Nashville —The undertakers reported 70 deaths on Snndav,of which number not less than fifty five were caused by cholera. The disease is devastating the outlying negro districts. The centre of the city is comparatively free of it A son of Dr. Means, aged eighteen, was attacked on Sunday, and was reported to be in a dying oondition. From Jane 7 to Jane 22, inclusive, 432 per sona had died of cholera. Elsewbxbx.—No calcs in Colombia, Ten nessee. Tbe disease is raging violently in Paducah, Kentucky. On Friday there were six deaths— one white and five colored. At least a dozen new eases appeared on Saturday, many of whioh will terminate fatally. Tbe disease is mainly oonfined to ths negroes. THE COUER XX COTTON. What Hew York Merchants and Brokers Hay nr the Prevail tine Bleb Prices. The sharp ooraer in the price of cotton now prevailing canstd special inquiries to be made as to the actual facts of this important staple. The following seems to be the real state of affairs; The ball interest has secured some 30,000 to 40,000 bales for future delivery for the months of Jane, Jnly and August, at prices varying from 18$ cents to 19 cents per pound, la order, therefore, to get a corner on cotcon it was necessary to mike cotton on the spot dearer. The stock in New York and the Atlantio porta within the last two weeks has been, as is nsnal dnrif g this period of the year, light; hence it was ran np to 21 cents per pound, forcing the spinners to bay for immediate nse, althongh •paringly, what they need at this price. The surplus is shipped to Liverpool, where it leaves a loss of abont 3 cents per ponnd. That these figures are correct there era be no donbt, as ootton at 20’ cents in New York cannot be laid down for less than 10$ pence in Liverpool, while tbe quotations from the other side are pereisteuly 8$ to 9 pence. It is, however, hop ed that by shipping the snrptns and awaiting a favorable opportunity the shorts in cutton for Jnly and August will have to settle st prices that will compensate these losses and leave a good round ram beiidea. Of coarse, in order to secure these results it is necessary to prediot a short crop for 1873 4. The shorts in ootton. on the other band, maintain that tho forcing of the prioe of ootton 21 oents a ponnd is a bnoble that most speedily burst. They aver that there is still enough cotton in tbs Sonth left from the crop of 1872-3 to cover more than ten times the short interest, and Intend to deliver in cotton SDd not in differences. They point ont tbe singular fact that ootton quoted in Liverpool at 8 IS 1C pence per ponnd oan be laid down in New York at 20 18 100 cents currency, and that it is perfect nunsense to inn np the prioe here for Jnly and August as long as this safety-valve exists, as freights have gone down as low as 10 shillings from Liverpool to New York, and at the price of 8 15 16 pence to 9 pence per ponnd, ootton for fmnre delivery at 21 to 21$ cents in New York wonld actually leave a fair margin of profit; and it is confi dently asserted that some enterprising specula tors are on the look ont for snch an event, and pay the balls, not in differences, which they de sire, bet in actual ootton, which they don’t want. That the area of cotton-planting ba3 been considerably enlarged this year has been fnlly shown in the Wor'd ou the 16 h inst, and there seems to be great foroe In the fact that with a larger area of cotton planted and the in creased nse of fertilizers in the Sonth a very heavy orop may be expeoted. It is a'so pointed ont that the prices both In New York end in Liveroool for September, Oc tober and November, 1871, when the ciop wss abont the same as the estimated crop of 1873 4 averaged 15 to 18 oents in New York and 7$ pence in Liverpool, hence the shorts in ootton feel very sanguine that tbe price in New York must break np very speedily. Inquiries were made of another class which seem of no impor tance to speculators, bnt are, in oar opinion, of prime moment—the sp’nners and manufactur ers. These are very bitter abont this artificial corner. They complain of a dull, domestio market for cotton fabrics, and look upon the ar tificial prioe of cotton here as a great hardship. They jnstty point out that even the protection against foreign cotton fabrics is entirely tost as long as the forAtgn manufacturers have an ad vantage of fnlly 15 to 20 per cent, on the raw material. The trade, so they soy, is paralyzed by these fluctnations, and no calonlRtions can be made with certainly, os it is quite probable that be fore the 100 bales of cotton bonght at 21 oents a pound is brought to market in a mannfao tured form, the price for the raw material will be down to 16 or 17 cents. In the meantime, cotton is.ponrlng into New York rather freely for the season of the year, and tetegraphio news from New Orleans assert that extraordin ary efforts are made to press ootton on the New York market at once, whioh wilt naturally tend to break the prioe now prevailing. Snch are the anthentio facts gathered from first sources; the oonolusion of coarse be left to all who are interested in this most important industry.— World. Surprised by tbe Storm—A Company of Troops Engnlphcd. Captain Alexander Moore, of the Third United States cavalry, has made a special report to General Ord, commanding the Department of tbe Platte, of the disastrous freshet on tbo night of May 31st, by which six of his men were drowned while be was on a econt from Fort MePherson.. Nebraska, with one guide, one wagon-master, five teamsters, and fifty-five on- listed men of Company F, Third cavalry, for the purpose of patrollirg the Republican valley. He says: Abont 0 p. M-, May 31, a terrible freshet, with out any apparent canse, swept down the valley, carrying everything before it. Men, tents, horses and army-wagons were swept along like cork’. For five days previous wo had no rain, and where this water came from so suddenly I cannot yet understand. Tbe valley of Black wood is abont forty-five miles long, and about odb mile to one-and-a half wide. This entire stretch of conntry was one raging torrent, at leant from six to seven feet deep, and how any man or horse escaped is marvelous. The only thing, indeed, that prevented total destruction, was the fact that my comp was surrounded by a belt of timber on three sids3, and as the men were carried off by tho oarrent they were en abled to save themselves by catching the limbs of trees. When day broke on tho morning of the first of Jane it showed almost all the men of my company on the tops of trees, without any cov ering ezoept remnants of underclothes, and be neath them the torrent still raging. After the lapse of a few hours the water began to fall, and a few men who could swim got to the hills. Afterwards the others, myself among tbe num ber, were got off by life-lines and various other means. Up to this time nothing was to be seen of what had been my camp except tho top of an army wagon which had atnek to a log on the ground, and on this wagon were collected eleven men, who were thus saved from a watery grave. The settlers at the month of the Blackwood lost almost all their stock and property. Tbe stock, however, was almost all recovered when the flood went down. Six men of my company were drowned, and twenty six horses lost. I remained at the scene of tbe disaster fonr days, and recovered five of tho bodies of the men and all of the equipments of tbe command.

Anthony’s trial for illegal vot ing was bronght to a focus in Oanandaigna at 2 o'clock last Friday afternoon. It will be re membered that a nol. pros, has been entered against all the other female voters: At Oanandaigna, at 2 o'clock this afternoon, Judge Selden made a motion in the oass of Miss Anthony for a new trial, on the ground of mis direction of the jadge in ordering a verdict of gnilty without submitting the case to a jury. The court, in a brief review of the argument of the counsel, denied tbe motion. The District Attorney immediately moved that the judgment cf the court be prononnoed upon the defendant. Tbe coart made inquiry of Miss Anthony if ehe had anything to say why sentenoe shonld not be pronounced. Miss Anthony answered and said that she had a great many things to say, and declared that to her trial every principle of justice had been vio lated; that every right had been denied that; she had had no trial of her peers; that the conrt of jurors were her political superiors, and not her peers; and announced her determination to continue her labors until equality was ob tained. She was proceeding to discuss the questions involved in the case, when she was interrupted by the court with the remark that these ques tions oonld not bs reviewed. Miss Anthony replied that she wished it folly nnderstoed that she asked no clemency from the conrt. She desired and demanded the fall rigor of the law. Judge Hunt then said: “Tbe jadgment of tbe oonrt is that yon pay a fine of one hundred dollars and the coats of the prosecation,” and immediately added: “ There is no order that yon stand committed nntil the fine is paid.” And bo the trial ended. A motion for a new trial is to be made in the case of the inspectors to-morrow morning, on the ground that Hall, one of the defendants, was absent daring the trial.

New Yobk, June 25.—A Tribune special from Long Branch, 24th, says the President, accom panied by Thomas Mnrphy, left here to-day for Washington. He was visited last evening by Beveral gentlemen, who urged the removal of Mr, Richardson from the Treasury Department, and it is known that Wall straet is making a de termined effort to induce the President to mike a change. E. D. Morgan is urged for Richard- son's snocessor. All these facts and others that eannot now be given, induce well informed men here to believe that tbe President’s visit to Washington at this time has reference to this subject. Persons who have spoken to the Pres ident lately on this matter say that, white he did not declare his intentionof making a speedy change in the Treasury Department, they left his presence with the belief that his decision was made to do so. It is also ascertained that the official life of Minuter Jay, at Vienna, will terminate upon the close of the Vienna Exposition. He has long been marked by the President for removal, and he wonld have been displaced several months ago bnt for the faot that hts long residence at Vienna seemed to famish sufficient reason to the Administration for retaining him and his experience daring snch an important period.
