THE OENKBAL'S CONVERSATIONS. Fiimthe Cincinnati Enquirer. There are many who doubt, or aOect to doubt, tie genuineness of the lte icporied conver?a tu us witn Geueral Grant by members of the press. We ato not ot tiie nuiutier. It may be tbat such conversations upon the part of the Geueial are tool it h and ill-timed, but thut proes nothing. He is reticent in public speech, because he haa not the pilt ot tulking upon his legs before a lame audience. But in private conversation he was aUays most comuramca tlve in his vies. Yenrs hj-o he pabbled upon tie subject of driving Maximilian out of Mexico, until it became so notorious as to be cittnsive to both the Biltish and French Minis Irrs at Washington. 6 nee then be has ta'ked iiout his constitulioiial commander-in-chief, tbe Pre.'ident ot the United States, Iu a mannpr tbat ind'eated that he has no restraint upon tbat unbridled in ember known as tne tongue, iditors and reporter?, however much they may U belied, hre not givcu to the sinofsiuiug down and deliberately iorgiog matter tor their columns.

EXP AT MAT ION. NimI K'xi'ricni of Noutliern ColoulNtn In I'.raEil. rrotn the Mobile Tribune. We had the pleasure ol a vi It yesterday from Mr. James J. Kelby, an in elhuenl Mobile you'll, who has jut returned from Brazil, whi her he went in 1M7. Mr. helo.y landsd hrst at Kto, ai d tonk pifsage from there lor Pura iu ttie Gov in men t steamer tor the purpose of joiLlog the colonists who weul from Moni'e under tbe pnidiVjCe ol Major Hast use?., aud h-id sculed som- di-.tnnce up the Amaxou. The Brazilian ('overnmeut had pledgtd i tacit to transport emigrants lrom this country to any pait o: Brazil vihcre tbey mleht wn-h to settle. Tbe experience of Mr. heloy of the manner in winch that pledge was kept was anything bat gr'.iijini. After :iet trouble and nuaieroas iteinys be secured a ticket aud went on boatdthe stenmer. During the pas.-pge, that lusted twenty ca9, he wns iiiuut and diy In the open air, uud nlloided no shelter lrom snu or ra n. Uu was lui nished two meals a day ot turina, which were served iu a bnee basin set out upon the deck for the accommodation of the deck passemrers en wosse. There were about one hundred and dity of these negroes, Indians and half-breeds the very scum ot creation lousy and bllhy, all led together, helping themselves, by the hundlul at a time. The passage lrom Para to the Uai'ins colony, occupjini; three days, was ot the sane uitute H9 that from Kioto the first mentioned pliice. So much lor the transportation. The colouihts who went out with Hastings were pro mised supplies tor six months, or money with which to purcbat-e supplies where they might df em proper. How that promise was kept may Ip appreciated from the followini;: Trie oilicial chtuued with tiimlBhiiin the settlers with sup plies is named Piuto. Ho is Vice President of the province ot Para and proprietor ot a herein which turns bim cut annual'y a lair ctoo of halt-breed Indian und negro otlspritig. With the money tbat finto had received lrom the Govern ment for the purpose designated, he eitablished a More on the b:intt of the river, tilled it with the cheapest groceries he culd obtain, and forced the settlers to bjy from him at the highest cash price, or starve. The settlement la dis'aut lrom tbe river about eight mi'es; a sandy desert witnout shade intervening; and once there the settlers had to trudge under a tropiral sun. bearing on their bucks the poor but cosily erocertes supol ed oy the entcrprbtug P:nto. Delicate women lrom Alabama had often to prr orm that leartul task. The lud iu the Hastings setilemeut, and the iTallcv of the Amazon generally, is inferior in quality to that ot our country, aud whatever is planted is speedily devoured oy the rnvriads ot insects tbat ewarm in those tropical reeions. And not only c!o these pests attuct vegetable lite, but man mid beast as well. Au insect called by sailors "the jigger" lies in wait at every turn ready to make ludemeot in the foot ot the pedestrian, and form a colony of young '.ItesferV' in the flesh. The feet ot dogs are to inreted by these insects tbat the animals never get tatter than an ordinary lathe. Scorpions, centipedes, taran tulas, ants an inch and a half long, and who e bite is like the combined sting of a dozun bold faced hornets, ticks as liree a a man's thumb nail, that go through bumuo flesh like the mole through fleshly spaded earth, are some among many of tbe Amazoniau blessing that endo a man with the power of despising such trifles as the clouds of mosquitoes anl sandflies that preva-1 there. Comparatively ppeakine, the vampire is the mosquito ol the Amazon Valley. Whethirtbe vampire is really a blood-sucker is a question that has given rise to so uediso na tion amoi g naturalists. We remember reading, several years ago, a magazine article, wuose object was to deiend the great South American bai aeaimt the serious charge, that waBiienc rtillv believed to be lounded In fact. Mr. Selby sets the matter at lest. He has killed vampires in the act of sucking his own blood, Uorses in the Amazon valley suUer greatly from these Idood-sucking bats, aud have to be kept well tro tccted from them at niaht. Of tbe families tbat yent out with Hastings only tour remain at the settlement, the rest having eone to Part as a Cist step towards getting back tiome. Those that remain are the folio ina: Vaughn, Men denhali, Steel, and Emett. The health of the country is about on a par with ourswamo lands. While tbe Hayings colony had been reduced to a remnant, all the Amerieau colonies have been utterly broken up; the colonists coming iu as best they could to the nearest seaports, geueially in an absolutely destitute condition. The result of the Brazil ' lever," Bad as it has proved to those who yielded to its attack, will stand as a warning to the Southern people against the busty abandonment of their native land. Even the greatest curse that can fall upon us from the foul womb of radical hate tho curse of monpielisni cannot be avoided by going to bimzu or any orncr nouin Aiuer cuu i-uuuuy. In all of them tbe Daoty fruit has ripened, and pollutes earth and air with its sickening odors. A. WILMlKtiTON SENSATION. The Wilmington Commercial ol yesterday con tains the following: One dar last week, when the cars on the Delaware Kalroad wtrestaodingatMlddletown, a lady of very prepssesslna appearance, aud apparently much excited, introduced herself uuccremoiiioubly into the mail oar. She ex plained that she' was seeking concealment from a gentleman ou the train, wliom she was exoeed inuly anxious to avoid. Hhrdly taking time to bait, she passed into the baggage cur, and letused to have it unless by compulsion. She said tnat she was a married WJiunn, thut her husband lived in New Orleans, that he was Eomewhat unsteady and wild, but bas always treated her well; that she bad been home on a visit tor a year pusr, and tnat ner tamer was unwillirc to let her eo back to her husband. She had left the night , before, and had been conveyed bv a frieud to Hilleboro, on the Mary laud and Delaware Kellroad, ana had got on the train at Clayton. She was not aware that her father was on the train until she saw hun get out at Middletown, and enter tbe refresh ment saloon, when she at once made her way to the baggage car. The conductor having heard ber storv, allowed ner to remain in the baggage i nr. and did not consider it auv part of bin duty to iiilorm ber lather of her whereabouts, as no questions had been asked bim, in legard to her. Un arriving at ninuiuvwu iuv imurr nuugai a policeman, and while he was closeted with him, the Irani moved off, carrying his da ighter apparently beyond his reach; butuufortuou ely lor the success of her runaway experiment an employe of the road, who had got sight ot the lady while the cars were at Wdmiugton, aud who afterwards heard tbe father's story, seeing a chance for making a few dollara, oifered to sell bis Information, and for tbe sum of ten dollars' let the old gentleman into tbe secret! Tbe lather at once bad a telegram sent to Pbiladelrbia in advance of the tram, and the fair runaway was Drought back in tbe morning train. K turned out tbat the story of the lady was trne, the only difference between her version and her lather's being iu the estimate that each put upon ber husband, the father leoresenting Lim in much darker colon tnan the wife. By what authority tbe lather cla med toprevpit htsdauebtir icIolninK ber husband, or how a Pennsylvania poHce officer could co npel a lady rharped with to crime to rct iro a'ler haiua travelled ten or twelve miles on herwaviroji Philadelphia to Pittsbure, and could b itig tier from one S a'e into ai.otber uu'ler durance, ar? questions wh ch seem to nuzzle those who are mil' arnpd in the law. It Is geueraily under stood that a wile, twenty-eitrbt years old, wns in tuls country, at liberty to travel where sh -pleased, It her husband did not object ; nut it seems tbat In this ca-e a Hftv dollar fee to a pol;ce cllicer and a telegraphic despatch wss bi flicipnt authority to st p alalvina pu'nlc conveyance and io compel her to retrace her Steps. MISSISSIPPI." Tnllnildnt Inff C-ulorcl Voters Recou Nt ruction Iu the Ntttte. Mr. A. G. Brown, formerly a :rominent lui ui ber of Congress tr"in Mi-sl-sippi. has written a letter to Ihe Jackson ( Mis.) Canon, in wb uh be endeavors to shov Iroai persoual observation th-u no hmg like intimidation was attempted sgain.-tt colored voters at the receut elccilou in that Slate, or more especially at the election at Crystul JSpnnns, in CupUh county unless it be assuimd." says Mr. Blown, 'that refusing to give employment Is Intimidation." After iiolua much twaddle inn vain attempt to jut.ty a refu-ni to give employ ment to worthy men because of their partisan sentiments, Mr. Brown re. urns to the subject of reconsliuctiou, which be discusses in a vem ol common ense which is quite refreshing to read. He says: 1 do not know many of the lea ling men in Cum-re.-s. The lew that 1 do kuow well, 1 am Miti-th d, will do us justice If our cantfiirly laid betore them. Among them are Wilson of Ma-sacbusetts, Wnde, Trumbull, and Chaudlcr ot ibe Senate, and Biuubam ol the House. Our people have been niaie to believe tbit these gentlemen are our enemies, aud that they are pursuing us in a malignant spirit, tbrough a mere love of vengeauoe. I know them well, and I do not concur in that opinion. They know that we lought tuetn like men. Convince them that when we laid doffn our arms wc did so in good faith; tbat wheu we couiessed our defeat we acKuowiedged the permanent over throw of slavery and of the right of secesio-i, and that we are now sincerely desirous of resuming our position in tne- Federal Union, not to disturb i'.s harmony, but to contribute all our energies, mental ai.d pin sical, to its last'ug prosperity. Doltiis, aud the Republican leaders I have named, aud doub.lcss muuy otuers, will be as ready to receive us U9 we are to be received. Buti am aked, how are we to couvtuce them? 1 answer, by acknowlodgiuir our own weak ties., and tbe power of the Governmeut; by a strict corepliauce with the le'ins of recous'ructi.in propo.-ed by Congress. 'iba, 19 all. Wt- snll have it to do. Tuen why not do it witho.it so much mouthintr and hesitation? Do we n it perceive that it i this very in out mug and hesi. lion tbat kcepj alive the suspicion that we are not lojal? Aud this renders our situation more cr.t'Cbl, not to say day by day mure despera e. 1 am willing to have it known ut Washington, as it is at Pome, tbat I opposed the ratihcatiou of toe Constitution submitted at ibe June elec tion, not becau-e it couiormi-d to the "tonsres sioial plau," but, dinUnotly, because it aid not. Whenever a ooustiiu.iou is submittel in strict cou'ormity to that or any similar "plaa" thtit Congiess may propose, I will alvucite its ratiticat'on. tor be it known, that I acknow ledge the power and tne ngtil of Couffre9s, speakintr for the conqueror, to dictate tf rros to the conquered. If in doing this it violates the l-'ederil Constitution, our appeal is to the Sopieme Court. If it violates the lavs of humanity, our appeal is to the judgtneut of the world. Beyond these appeals, we are absolutely without a remedy. We tried the bullet aud lost we tried the ballot and lost aguiu. 1 onnot be misttikn in supposing tht a very large ma)nriry of onr tbougbtlul anil deserving people concur with me in tue opinion iha', we can do nothing but submit, ami as we buv it to do, 'twere better to do it quickly.

The Btreets are dirty and literally swarming with beggars. The compaiatively lew carriages that pass along are surrounded by groups of poor families of respectability, whose fathers, sous or brother.-, bavins been suddenly deprived of otlice, are literally starving. This Is no exaggeration. Tho ULder Secretary of State knows ho maoy a bis relatives and Iriends have stepped into their places. Some time ago the privato part of the Reilro Gardens, where only the roval family were admitted (except ou certain days, wueu tickets 01 admission were given), was thrown open to the public. At an early hour it was invaded by a tumultuous crowd of men, womn and children, who proceeded to rush Into the rustic cottages built in the days of Queen Cnris una for tbe amusement of the little queen aud her sister, breakiue aud demoll hiug the furni ture and destroying the toy houros, to pelt the f wans in the ponds, to tear down the swings, and otherwise to assert their rights as free citizens. An order has been issued that the ga'.es are to be closed in future, which has ca ised much discontent. A rule took place latch of the furniture of the Count and Countess of liirgeuti, which had been. sent on iroro l'aris shortly o-tore the revolution tor the palace which it was their iuten'l n to build In Madrid. It was eagerly bought up, tbc most splendid articles going lor tho most trifliTg J net b. The vouug Infanta and her husband are said to be living quie.ly at Worthing, in s ngiaad boating, riding amusing themselves like private individual-, and taking no part whatever in b Hulsh affairs. A fewniirhtsago, at theCasino, itwas amusing enotiL'h to listen 10 the Babel of tonurucs hh.i the variety ot opinions ou the great qups'.ions of the day. Some declared the meeting of tbe Cortts lo bo au impossibility; some laid high waeti9 on the suoeets of the Carlists and trie accession of their representative, the Duke of Madrid, as be is called. Most ot tbe members betted cn tbe republic, and many 011 wuat ihev called the only logical tolutiou of the problem the election ot tne young rrinc9 ot Astunas. In lact, the variety of opinions was so great, and the list or candidates bo long, tbat were it not foi the vl'al importance ot tbe result one rniybt be disposed to join with Li Gorda in turnli.g tbo whole question into ridicule, CiltiNT AND SEYMOUK.

Its tuid is tne proceeds trom sales of lands donated by the General Government, and is as follows: Trust Fund, with the Sta'e (in eluding amount remitted, Act iso. 143. 1 s of 18591. 7 per cent. . . $105,!)02,53 Wn paid balances due on University lands, 7 tcr cent loi.uioMi Total .$353.97799 Only 230 acres cf University lands reuiaiu un sold. While the corps of profes-ors, bjth in number and ability, will compare favorably, an 1 the number of students is larger than iu the oldest and most popular colietrcs of the lund, its eudowmcnt tuud is very much smaller. The aunual receipts of the University from all sources have been barely sufficient to meet tb.9 currei.t expenses, managed, as they have been, in tbe most careful anl economical mtnoer. It is doubttul, ut least, whether the Uuivpr9lty can contiuue to maintain its present hiuh position among the best institutions of learning in the land, without some additional provision tor the improvement of the build. ngs, the steady increase of its 1 brary, and tor an Increase in the Eumber aud salary of its protestors.
