*as of Ot Wilk. THE EXECUTIVE.. Tour of the President—President John son some time since accepted an invitation to assist in the ceremonies of laying the corner stone of a monument in honor of the late Stephen A. Douglass, in Chicago. A Presi dential excursion was accordingly arranged, the party , consisting of the President, Secre taries Seward and W ' elles Postmaster-Gene ral Randall, Gen. Grant, Admiral Farragut, and. a few others of less note, which left Washington on Tuesday of last week. The party reached this city on Tuesday afternoon and remained over night. They were received by the military and, other authorities, by several public bodies, and by a promiscuous assemblage of citizens, with the full amount of demonstration which a loyal city like Phila delphia might be expected to bestow upon the highest constituted authorities of the nation. The daily papers published copious accounts of the movements of the procession, the address of welcome, the replies, etc., etc., all of which, having no unusual interest at the time, would be stale in our columns now. The party arrived at New York on Thurs day, evening, having been joined in this city by Gen. Meade and one or two others. Its reception in New York was enthusiastic, and highly flattering to the receivers. To the President, however, it might have been a little annoying to read the following inscrip tion upon one of the large transparencies in Broadway, on the route of the procession : " S wme the man who mak.es war on the Government and fires on its vessels, and I will show you a traitor. If I were President of the United States I would' have all such arrested, and when tried and convicted, by the eternal God I would have them hung ; "ANDREW JOHNSON. ' The day following the .party went up the river to Albany, to which capital they had been invited by a resolution of the State Senate, then in special session for the trial of an impeachment case. The resolution of welcome named the President,'General Grant and Admiral Farragut, but the Senate refused, by a vote of 8 to 12, to particularize Secretary Seward by name. On the way up, West Point received a call. The nest day's jour ney was to Auburn, the home of Secretary Seward, at whose mansion the President was entertained. Monday brought the party as far as to Buffalo. Stops and festivities were frequent along the entire route, the President making frequent speeches, and proposing "senti ments." The Retirement of Secretary Harlan.— Mr. Harlan concluded his duties as Secretary of the Interior on the 31st ult. Before his departure he was presented by the officers, clerks and employees of that office, with a testimonial of their respect, in the shapi of a very beautiful set of silver service, and an autograph album containing the names of over three hundred employees of the depart ment, appended to an address tendering. their grateful acknowledgments for the kindness and consideration he had ever manifested in his personal and official intercourse with them. Withdrawal of Rations.—Gen. Howard, in view of the fact that comments upon this measure, reflecting upon the President, had been extensively made, sent to the National Intelli:cren,cer for publication, .a copy of his letter on the subject to the Secretary of War, as follows :---" In view of the fact thatcharges are constantly made by a large number of prominent citizens in the South and else where, that persons are fed by the Bureau in idleness,• and in consideration of the state ments made by the Inspectors, Generals Steedman and Fullerton, implying that the people who labor for support are rendered idle by the promise of hope of rations from the Government, and further considering that' he crops are suffeiently matured already to prevent actual starvation, I recommend that on and after the first of September next the issue of rations be stopped, except to the ..sick, in regularly organized hospitals, and to the orphan asylums for refugees and freed men already existing, and that the State officials, who may be responsible for the poor, be Carefully notified of this order, so that they may assume the charge of such indigent refugees and freedmen as may not be em braced in the above exemptions." The above letter is dated August 7th, and bears, under date of August 23d, Secretary Stanton's endorsement, ".A.pproved---to take effect October Ist, 1866." A Change in Foreign Postage.—The Post-office Department announces that after Satfirday nest, September Ist, the postage on letters forwarded by the French mail, frorn the United States to Portugal, Madeira and the Azores, will be twenty-seven cents f or : one-quarter of an ounce, prepayinent being optional. Newspapers and 'other printed matter may be forwarded on prepayment of the 'United States postage only, two cents each tor newspapers, and two cents for every four ounces weight of pamphlets or other printed matter. Assistant Commissioner for Maryland. —Gen. E. M. Gregory was last Thursday named Assistant Commissioner of the Freed men's Bureau for the State of Maryland. THE STATES. New York. The funeral ofDean Richmond took place at Batavia ' the place of his late residence, on the 30thult. It was the occa sion of an immense assemblage, including members of public and biisiness corporations front Western New York cities.—A fire in 1111rnira, on the 29th lilt, destroyed $50,000 worth of property. Illinois.--EiOteen buildings on West Lake street, Chicago, valued at $60,000 were destroyed by fire on the 28th ult. • Maryland.—l received information to-day from an eye witness, tif one of the most bru tal outrages ever perpetrated in this section. For' several days past a camp-meeting has been in progress at Hanoyer switch, on the Washington branch of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, and about twenty miles from this city ; being 'held by the Methodist Epis .oopal ministers of the Baltimore Conference. Presiding Rider Brown Morgan being present last night, a band of " reconstructed rebels," 9roblibly of the same stanip'as the self-`styled regulators" of Kentucky, made an attack on the camp of the colored people who had joined in the religious exercises, aid coin menced a violent and indiscriminate assault with.clubs, finally using their revolvers freely. Two colored men were shot, and a white man, whose name cannot now be ascertained, was shot in the head while kneeling at the altar. Another white man, whose Union sentiments had made him unpopular in that section. was attacked by one of the ruffians, who fired twice at his head, the billets fortunately ohs' sing their mark. The colored people dis i persed n all directions, and the villains then plundered the tents, , seizing everything of value. The party then called upon the whites to aid ,them in pursuing and murder ing the negroes, 'but were unsuccessful securiog . aid in the prpseontion of their fiend ish wor So great was the feeling of in security occasionedfby this attack, that- the whites deemed , it unsofe, to remain, and,,ac cordingly, the , camp was. broken up., It is understood that this' 'attack was 'plartrihd at Baltimore, and itriCssjd that; the party com prised several Baltimoreans, and also a num ber of men from Laurel, Marylaud.—Oor Press. Virginia.—Major Marcus J. Hopkins, As sistant Superintendent of Freedmen's Affairs in the sub-district of Prince William county, Va.,makes a highly encouraging report to the Bureau of the improvement in the rela tions between the whites and blacks in that county. He states that the condition of Bureau affairs is favorable. The ideas that colored men must be compensated for their labor and be protected in their rights of per son and property, equally with the whites, are becoming settled in the minds of the peo ple generally. During the past two or three months there has been perfect quiet between the whites and freedmen. No cotnplaints of a serious nature, and few of a trivial nature, have been made, either to the Bureau or to the civil authorities. • • North Carolina.—The revised constitu tion, recently presented to the citizens of North Carolina for ratification, has been rejected by them by a majority of about 2000. The vote upon this constitution was quite a full one—much larger than that polled at the Governor's election last year. , The death of ex-Governor Moorehead is announced. Tennessee.—Hon. Horace Maynard sus tains the legality of the vote by which the Tennessee House of Representatives ratified the constitutional amendment. He was pre sent when the vote was taken, and says the proceedings were every way regular. The whole number of authorized members of 'the House is. eighty-four z fifty-six of whom were present, thus constituting a full quorum under the most stringent construction of the law. But in addition to this, the entire number of actual members has been reduced by death and resignation, until about seventy only remain, so that there was really over a Suorum, of actin members. Mr. Heiskell, peaker of the Howse, being opposed to the amendment, ruled that a quorum had not voted, and hence the difficulty. The House `overruled his decision and directed him to certify:the passage of the amendment, which he as yet refuses to do. Lonisiana.—Early last week a foolish rumor was started in Washington, that, in view of 'Gen. Sheridan's report, the Presi dent had resolved to commit the propriety of removing, by military order, the New Orleans Mayor, Monroe. He does no such thing. The reports of the cotton crop from the in terior are very conflicting, but, taken as a ,whole, they are barely favorable. Picking is progressing as rapidly as the condition of the fields will permit—the necessities of planters compelling them to hurry their crops forward with as little delay as possible. Extract from the proceedings of a special meeting of the State Central _Executive Conimittee of the Republican Party of Louisiana ' ' August 8, 1866. Whereas, On the 30th day of July, 1866, at New Orleans, Louisiana, an organized band of assassins did maliciously and brutally murder a large number of unarmed and un suspecting Union citizens ; and whereas, in our opinion, the same spirit which caused the late rebellion against the - Government of the United States animated the perpetrators of the atrocious Murders of July 30 ; and whereas under circumstances equally favorable, other murders and outrages may be repeated from , tha sameassassins ; therefore, • Resolved, in the name of the loyal people of Louisiana, that we respectfully ask the commander-in-chief of the army and navy of the United States to maintain martial law over the city of New Orleans, at least until the authors and eiders, and abettors of the late massacre shall have been brought to such punishment as will secure the observ ance of law and order, and protect the lives of the Union citizens of New Orleans. Resolved, That a copy of the above pream ble and resolution, which were unanimously adopted, be'forwarded to Andrew Johnson, commander-in-chief of the army and navy of the United States. MISCEILLA_NEOTTS. • The Xesiean Question.—The Washington correspondent of the Ledger of this city, in general a cal eful and discerning observer, writes, under date of August 30th, as follows : —" In my telegram to the Ledger of the 24th, I characterized the Paris despatch of the previous date, about the failure of the Em press Carlotta's mission, a "first-class canard" and the assertion is now almost officially verified. The Empress has not only been successful in securing an extension of the period for the payment due by the Empire to France, but she has also succeeded in obtain ing a prolongation of the stay of the French forces in Mexico until next year, and, finally, the removal of Marshal Bazaine from the supreme command. Her mission, therefore, if the latest reports are correct, has proved a success. The Emperor's course; at this late hour of the Mexican question, is well calculated to excite surprise on the part of those who have believed his promises, and perhaps awakens doubts for the future. Why does Napoleon break faith with the United'Stites ? be asked. Ekpromised that'the fall of '66 should witness;:the recall of the first detachment of French troops front Mexico, whereas he now coolly puts off the period until January. If he can do this without an energetic rebuke from the State Department, he can just as readily defer their, departure entirely, and the probabilities are that he will, do so. Or he may say that the troops have joined the. Mexican Legion, and that therefore he has no further control over them. It is not likely, however, that he will get off thus easily. The Government will watch sharply for the withdrawal of the troops on the date promised, arid any failure to do so will meet with something more, I fancy, than an indignant protest. While on this Mexican topic, I will add a rumor current to the effect that a sufficient number of French, vessels will be sent to Matamoras to enforce the &loan de ordered by Maximilian. 'Mexican advices by way of San Francisco state that Maximilian has levied two forced loans on the residents in Guayamas, amount ing to $27,000. ' Recovery of the Cable of 1865.—A brief notice of this event appears among the for eign telegrams on this page. Further details of the event are contained in despatches from Heart's,:Content, Sept. 2d, which say "The' ,`expedition with the Great Easteri had been out twenty-four days, and ail hope of successehad been abandoned by the telegraph - people here: The cable was recovered in eighteen hundred fathoms of water, according to Captain Mmiarty's chart, and in latitude'sl degrees 52 minutes, longi tude 36 degrees 3 minutes, or about seven hundred miles from Heart's Content. Her Britannic Majesty's steamer Terrible is ex pected here at any moment with despatches from the Great Eastern and the triumphant fleet. The news reached Valentia at forty minutes past five o'clock, one hour and five minutes before it was received here. Signals are sent through the cable with perfect accu racy, and we are talking with the Great Eas tern every moment, via Valentia, Ireland. About three hours after the recovery of the cable, the splice was made with the cable stowed in the main tank of the Great Eas tern, and-the lowering of the cable- into the sea iimmediatelY took place. The "big ship" is now paying. out, the wire and ap proaching Heart` 'Odntent 'on her return, at ibout the same rate of speed ,as she main tained in her former 'late 'expedition. The THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBEP 6, 1866. telegraph fleet is expected here next Satur day. The Cotton Supply.—All information that can be had as to the probable amount of the cotton crop of 1866 is of value, and from our foreign advices we learn that a report upon this subject has just been presented to the British Government by Dr. Forbes, the Cotton Commissioner of India. This gentle man has lately made a tourthrough the Southern States, for the purpose of estimat ing the probable supply. The Carolinas, he thinks . , will produce over 100; bales; Georgia, 150,000: Alabama, 200 A 0 ; Loui siana, Missuisippi, Flotilla : , ant. kansas, 550,000. He makes no estimate' f 6. Texas, not having visited that State ; andle thinks that the aggregate production of th' South, Texas included ;will not exceed 1,200, 0 bales. Mr. Forbes states that higher estima es than this have previously been made by liable l e parties, but since the data upon vela' h they were based have been collected, or, p pros pects have deteriorated. An scour. • judg ment of the amount of the crop can scarcely be formed before NovembEft 1 Indian Troubles.—Coneerning a. alarm ing report of an outbreak of hostilil• s on a large scale_, by the Indians on the Pacific routes, a Washington letter of. Aug rt 3lst says :—"No advices have been rec• ed at the Department of Indian Affairs ten ng to. confirm any of the reported Indian outbreakson the plains. The last intelligence was afforded about a week ago i by Superintend ent Taylor, of Nebraska, who s. inclinet to treat the disturbances as coming from small detachments of Indians, not connected it any way with the tribes, who are said to be frbnd ly in their dispositions toward the GOiprn meat, but, on the contrary, are tvgardedlind treated by the Indians themselves:as outl ws of bad character. y. 4 , r . • To be Looked After.-4 San Fran& despatch of August 29, says that a Fren , man-of-war recently seized the American b Francis. Palmer, under the pretence that was loading guano without a permit, an carried her to Mazatlan. Admiral Thatcher will send the Saranac and Shawnee to investi gate the matter. Progress of the Union Pacific Rail road.—Commissioners Simpson, Curtis and White have examined and accepted forty five miles more of the track of the Union Pacific Railroad. This finishes the road thirteen miles west of Fort Kearny. ment in the hands of the King, who would act with the necessary consideration. '.Fur ther communications with regard to Schles wig-Holstein would be made after the conclu sion of peace. The King of Prussia, on the 17th, received the Hanoverian deputation, which solicited the annexation of Hanover to Prussia as soon as possible. The Scliles wig -Holstein. Government had received orders to prepare for the election of representatives to the German Parliament. li#Litograptit.
