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

telegraph fleet is expected here next Satur

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
