Chicago, July 8. Tim Tribune of this morn
ing pulilibhcs a despatch from Mrs. Powell, wife
of Major Powell, dated at Detroit, in answer to
an inquiry from the editor of the Tribune as to
whether the John Sumner, to whom the story of
the disaster is attributed by the Omaha IfcpnUli
can, belonged to the expedition. Mrs. PoweU
says Sumner was a member of the expedition,
but she docs not believe the etory, and evidently
docs not believe it comes from Sumner. Nothing
direct has been heard from Major Powell since
the letter published in tho Tribune on May 23,
and the question has narrowed down to this,
lias John Sumner actually returned from the
expedition reported lost on Green river late in
June, and which story, attributed to Sumner,
Kisdon got hold of, appropriated, and boggled,
or is the story attributed to Sumner only ?

The latest returns from. Virginia Indicate the elec
tion of Walker as Governor by a majority of from
80,000 to 40,000. It Is thought that Lewis, the Lieutenant-Governor,
will have even a larger majority,
as his opponent labored under the disadvantage of
having a black skin. Scgar, the Congressman at
large, will probably have a smaller majority.
The following are the tate officers and Conirresa-

There is some dispute here as to the Blirnttlcanee of
tho despatch Bent to the President to-day b tne
Chairman of State Central Conservative Committee
of Virginia. Soma persons were disposed to regard It
as Barcastls; but It apneur that at the White llonui.
it Is not received in that, spirit. The President re
gards the success of the Conservative ticket as an
endorsement of his policy, at least bo far as the Htati
Constitution is concerned, vlovernor Walker claims
to be a Grant man, and so do many of the successful
candidates, both 8tate and Conuressional. Viewed
in this light, the despatch of Mr. Daniels seems to

t "I'ltirereno on the part of the Irre
pressltde volunteers characterised the first stages of
the ceremony, which was in Itself an exceedingly
cool, unenthusiastic affair, got through with in the
most slovenly manner.
As the cortege passed slowly along, vaarlons com
ments were made by a group of volunteers In mili
tary undreBs, who were on duty, and consequently
were spectators of the pageant. The appearance of
the numerous body of stair olllcers and empleidos
especially excited their Irascibility of temper, and
called forth, on the part of the aforesaid group, a
choice number of expressions much more forcible
than polite. The Spanish badge on their hats
formed the talisman of their personal surety, and
opinions, which would have cost a Cuban perhaps his
life, had he dared to give utterance to them, were
freely vented by these true blue patriots. "There,"
exclaimed one with the badge of a lieutenant on his
uniform; "look at those vultures who come here to
rob and get rich, getting their salaries for doing
nothing, while we poor devils have to pay the

whole purty, wrought up to a considerable pitch of
excitement, joins in a chorus of maledictions and
epithets which 1 refrain from rendering Into Anglo

De Rodas entered the Unbematorlal palace by a
curious coincidence, as he entered the Island of
Cuba by a Ride door. He found the building In a
bad condition and undergoing repairs. He also
found the colonial structure which Spain had bieu
rearing for centuries In a tottering state, and Its
chief pillars of support, the volunteers, in a very
shaky condition. Into both editlces the substantial
one and the metaphorical he was compelled to
enter by a Hank movement and through Bide por
tals, a little well-timed flattery to the volun
teers on his part making them willing gate-openers
and himself master of the situation, for the present,
at least. Ksplnar, In his Interview with De Rodas
who, by-the-way, Is said to be an admirable strate
gist Informed him previous to his landing of the
real state of affairs on the island in general, and In
Havana especially, thereby giving Do Rodas time to
frame his policy and to decide on his future line of
action. Thus, while the new Captain-General was
engaged lu planning his campaign and writing
his proclamations, tho volunteers were pre
serving a "masterly Inactivity," and were
quite undemonstrative in their actions,
waiting doubtless for Caballero to ttrst
break the silence, and then to be governed either
by circumstances or by their own ungovernable in
stincts. The general expectation formed concerning
Rodas was to the effect that he would enforce dis
cipline ami exact oledience to the mandates of the
Government of Serrano and Prim, his friends and
co-workers in the overthrow of Isabella and the suc
cess of the Spanish revolution. This view at o.ie
time seemed to bear the Impress of correctness,
owing to the fact of the Issue of au order for the 900
troops he brought with him from Spain to go Into
garrison at Fort Cabanas, without any fraternization
taking place between them and the famous Movlll
r.ados of Havana. His reputation as a suppressor
of revolutionary movements lu Spain at Cadiz and
otlr points caused considerable apprehension to
be felt here, and a great many believed that he
would udopt strong measures a la Cadiz, with re
gard to both classes of Insurgents, namely, the
volunteers and the followers of Cespedes. These
reasons caused, doubtless, the delay in hanging out
the paraphernalia of ultra-Spauioiism from early
dawn until some time after the entrance of De
Kodus Into the palace, the draping and festooning
of the principal thoroughfares not having been com
menced by the Ultramontancs until an Inkling was
had of Caballero's policy.
Whnt that Inkling In.
One of the most nhllosonhlcat axioms extant is
"that to overcome force It Is necessary to employ
force;" but it sometimes happens that skill is
greater than Btrength. Although a flowing river
may not ne uammeu up, stui it is possime to turn
it into another channel. The new Caotaln-General
decided on the latter policy as being most expe
dient, cither from a lack of resources to carry out
tne inner, or irom a wisn to direct me volunteer
stream Into a channel of Spanish loyalty,
and thereby use it In the interests of the mother
country. As footi as this became known all the
SpunlHi ultras went to work with a will, and pretty
soon Havana once more wore her gala suit to do
honor to Cubullero de Kodus. Should some Incredu
lous party express surprise at this sudden gush of
lovaltv and patriotism on the part of the peninsular
residents of Havana, and wish to be Informed of the
reason, he will have no trouble in ascertaining it if
he will have the patience to read the following docu
ments: I'roclnumtion of general de Ilorinn.
Inhabitants ok Tns Island ok CTba: For nine
months this Island has been afflicted by the most
terrible scourge that can atllict humanity civil war.
Since the commencement In an evil hour of this sail
period, you have beheld commerce languishing, In
dustry ruined, and the wealthiest estates disappear
ing at tne impulse oi me revolutionary oreeze
ami at the touch of the Incendiary torch.
You Bee. moreover, a progressive emigration.
which diminishes rapidly the elements of wealth,
and, what is worse, you behold brothers decimated
by the fratricidal lead or the treacherous poniard of
the assaRsin.
I will not at this moment descend to occupy my
self with the causes that havo conduced to the
actual situation. Taking for granted the present
state of things, my mission Is to re-establish calm
ness and confidence; to end tho civil war at all
hazards, and to study afterwards your necessities
and all that mav conduce to the prosperity of the
country, In order to propose to the Government of
the nation all the reforms that may enable this pearl
of the Antilles to reach the grade of culture and
felicity to which, without a doubt, her destiny calls
Her.
I comprehend all the difficulties with which I have
to contend on assuming the arduous task with which
the Kxecutive power has been pleased to honor me;
but I am animated by the hope that 1 will be aided
in my undertaking not only by this valorous and dis
ciplined armv, but also bv the armed volunteers, to
whose (leciMon aim euoris in uue iu ;reui measure
the salvation of the island.
It Is natural that you biiouhi uesire to know waat
my line of conduct will be. It Is contained iu three
word Spain, justice, and morality. Spain, who will
draw from her Immense fund of patriotism Inex
haustible resources for the preservation or the in
tegrity of her territory, inside and outside of the
n,.i,iuiila Mnrulitv nml strict economr will rule in
all branches of the administration. Justice Is for
ail the sanio for the man or weuiin and the nigh
functionary as for the humble artisan.
Willi this simple programme, which I adopt with
Immutable fa,lth and a linn will. I hope to obliterate
the foot-prlikis of extermination aud destruction
which civil war leaves behind it; extinguish rancor;
to heal the wounds and dry up so many tears. I be
seech of vou generosity worthy of the noble Spanish
blood to forget offenses, and if we arrive at the end
I propose, be vours the glory and felicity and mine
the satisfaction of having contributed towards It.
C'Aiiki.i.Eito Dk Rodas.
Volunteers: Willi your energetic and decided
attitude you have rendered eminent services to the
cause of order, justice, and right. For them vou
merit well of the country throughout whose exten
sion resounds a unanimous cry of praise for those
who, ubandoning their habitual occupations, have
become soldiers defending the national honor.
You ought to be proud of your conduct, I am as
much, because I mvself am at your head to sustain
the gooil cause, as because I have the good fortune
to return you thanks, being the" falthlul interpreter
of the sentiments of the national Government of
your fellow citizens. Volnntarini, vira Eniaita!
Long live Cuba, the most beautiful province of
Spulll. CABAI.I.KKO Dk Rokas.
Soldiers and Sailors : A few Cubans of an unquiet
and turbulent disposition have taken up arms and
raised the standard of rebellion against the common
countrv. Assassination and liuendlarlsm are the
ouly acts which they can commemorate for their
own shame, ami to furnish an eloquent lesson to
those citizens who, remaining faithful, already know
what they must expect from them.
You responded to the crv of sedition with the
counter one of your rellneii loyaltv. But, vain
chimera! tho rebels do not measure their steel with
yours, and contlno themselves to the exercise of acts
of pertldy, cruelty, and treason. However, If you do
not sustain combats because your enemies refuse
them, ycu will not for that reason reap Ichs glory by
showing yourselves as ever Bober, persevering, obe
dlent, and worthy children of our own dear Spain.
Now that I huve the honor to place myself at

numerous allusions made In them to the patriotism
and self-abnegation of said corps, and the evening

directors of the fraternity, Informed them thnt they
Bhonld refrain from all writing intended to Inflame or
excite the passions, and that they sheuld especially
avoid all articles tending to Irritate the women of
Cuba, as these were almost a nnit In favor of the
success of the revolution. He stated that he had
been Informed while In Spain that many attacks of
the'press had been made upon General Dulce, and
that those attacks more than anything else tended to
produce the recent lamentable conBequenccs.
ir," Raid ue I tod as, "I am made the subject of
newspaper criticisms, depend upon It I will
not have recourse to either laws or tri
bunals. I will take the matter personally
In hand, and make It a personal affair." Whether ha
Kxcellency proposes to follow the course of Ferrer
de Canto, and call the editor out, I am unable to
say ; but 1 am strongly of the opinion that such a
proceeding will be wholly unnecessary, as that Illus
trious body In Havana, known as the Uavana press,
wi:i only be too happy to follow the line laid down,
and be guided by the Indications of De Rodoa.
The Spaniards are more hopeful of success than
they have been for some time past, and are quite
Jubilant over the turn affairs have taken In the
I'nited States In regard to the dlscomilturc of the
"Junta Cubana" and the lifting out of filibustering
expeditions In New York; and the Journals,
drawn along Irresistibly with the tide of pub
lic opinion, launch forth into extravagant
praise of the probity of General Grant's ad
ministration, which strangely enough, they seem
to look npon tn the present condition as some
grand police agency, whose sole buslnoss is to keep
on the eternal lookout for all suspected movements
against the "national Integrity." Thev claim that
the rebellion Is on iu last lego, and"that nothing
more is needed than to perfect the work already ac
complished, and restore commerce and Industry to
their ancient channels. In view, however, of the
startling incidents which now and again present
themselves, we are perforce led to believe that tho
revolution is far from being "squelched," and when
we take into consideration the admission of the
Spaniards themselves that a mortality of at least
thiity-three per cent, exists among the Spanish
regular troops, it robs the fanciful picture they have
so complacently painted of the situation of a great
deal of Its gliding. "Facts are facts, and facU are
stubborn things."
OUR OARSMEN.
The Fninous Harvard Crew In New York.
The Harvard International crew arrived in
New York city thiB morning from Boston, and took
lip their quarters Bt the Astor House by invitation of
the proprietors. They will remain there until Satur
doy, when they will embark for Europe. During
their stay in that city the Nassau Boat Club will ex
tend official courtesies, and the Harvards will visit
Greenpoint to Inspect their new shell, which Is being
built for them by Mr. Klliott They bring with them
a shell recently built for them at Charlestown ; but
whether one or both boats will be taken to Europe Is
yet undecided. The BostonVutirnoi of yesterday, in
announcing their departure, says :
The several members of the crew are personally
In fine condition nt present, and do not feel that they
have, in any of their recent public essays, put forth
their real Btrength ; they are persuaded of a reserve
of lmiBcle not yet displayed. The pull of Monday
last they do not look back upon as anything extra
ordinary, and It did not constitute their hcavv work.
It was noticeable on that occasion and was re
marked by several that decided Improvement
had been made In physique, when viewed from a
critical standpoint. This was especially the case
with Rice and Simmons, as compared with their
apparent condition on the occasion of the race of
June 15. There has been no downright training
done as yet, though the crew have tabled together
upon approved viands for some weeks. They were
out for practice yesterdny on the river, and will un
doubtedly be scrupulous to at least hold where they
8re physically until thetr arrival In England. Good
facilities are understood to have been provided for
exercise on shipboard, Including a clour space on the
upper deck for promenading, etc.. and a cabin apart
ment separate from the malu cahlu and other apart
ments, on arrival iu England they will locate near
the Thames, and not fur distant from the city of
London, at a point not yet lixed npon, or, If so,
known only to parties there having the arrange
ments in charge. Doubtless the hospitalities of
the bouting Iraternity In England will bo fully
up to the emergency, and the crew will find
everything 'In readiness on arrival. The "precise
time for the grand demonstration is not
likely to become known beforehand any better than
It is now. ns the Harvards have an option respecting
the weather; and their friends may rest assured that
a "smeoth day" will be accepted onlv. They very
justly remark that it would be folly to go 8000 miles
to have a rough-and-tumble pull on a turbulent river
surface. The rumor that the Cambridge (England)
crew hail withdrawn from their proposed contest
with the Harvards is not well founded, but the latter
consider It altogether probable that opportanlty will
he had to trv conclusions with the oarsmen of both
the famous .English universities.

graphed from here last night to tho effect that
Admiral Hoff was not Rlvinjr satisfaction to the
department in his course towards tho Cubans,
and that ho would be relieved and Admiral Poor
ordered to the South Atlantic Squadron, is incor
rect. On tho contrary, Admiral Hoff's activity
and energy in the protection of American Inter
ests are gaining him the esteem and admira
tion of the department; and tho only con
tingency nuder which Hoff would be
recalled would at a request of his own on ac
count of ill health, or any other good reason ho
might assign, should he make such a request.
Then Admiral Poor would be ordered to relievo
him, as It Is his next turn to go to sea. But
even then Hoff would have to stay till autumn.
when Poor would go out. Admiral Hoff has
gone to Santiago do Cuba In the iron-clad Sau
gus, as a notice to the Spaniards to keep their
bands off American interests. The head of tho
Navy Department expresses surprise that any
one should venture to assert tho Admiral s sym
pathy, pro or con, In tho Cuban struggle, for to
tho best of his knowledge and belief ho (Hoff)
has never expressed his opinion one way or the
other.

The Irixb. Church mil .
London, July 8. The Times has another
editorial on the Irish Church bill to-day, in
which it says: "The bill must become a law.
This session of Parliament must destroy Pro
testant supremacy, and establish religious
equality In Ireland, but not attempt to set up
a multiplicity of establishments. If the eccle
siastical property of Ireland is to be put on a
permanent footing, we must recognize these
facts, and apply bo muc h of the surplus as may
be necessary to supply homesteads for ministers
for the whole people."
The AuK'ndineulM Not to be Tolerated.
The Morning Star (radical) says: "Tho Bri
tish people have no right to Indulge Peers who
would deprive them of the luxury of being just.
Hardly ono of tho amendments to the bill
agreed upon byt ho Lords can bo tolerated by
the country."

partment to put tho lron-clads lying at various
Navy Yards In repairs. They aro not to be fitted
for sea, but only painted and put In a condition
to keep them from wearing out.
An Alleged Opinion.
The President Is said to have expressed the
opinion to-day that Mississippi and Texas would
go tho same way as Virginia. Gentlemen who
have conversed with him on tho subject say he
is" perfectly satisfied with the result of the Vir
ginia election. During the day nearly all tho
members of the Cabinet callod upon the Presi
dent and had interviews. In consoquence of
his time being occupied In this way, very few
visitors were admitted.
The Vlrlnla I'lrcllon.
Since the result of tho Vlrgluia election has
been known, some politicians now say that a
mistake was made In allowing tho disfranchising
clauses of tho State Constitution to be voted
upon Fcparately. Republicans from Virginia say
the effect was to consolidate all tho Rebels and
what Is known as the conservative element
against the radicals, and that this resulted In
the defeat of tho latter. The successful party
boast that henceforth tho conservatives will con
trol the State.
Judge Dent)
the President's brother-in-law, denies that ho
consulted Grant before accepting the nomina
tion for Governor of Mississippi on the conser
vative ticket. Ho claims to have acted inde
pendently, and avers that ho does not expect
any support from tho administration on the
score of his relationship to tho President. There
are otl crs hero, however, who think differently,
andwl.o say tho matter was well understood
before Dent accepted the nomination.

ggSSUA Disagreeable Experience.
Mr. Ooldwlu 8mlth is just no undergoing the
must disagreeable experience which can befall a
public man. Having made rather a donkey of him
self here, both In what he has Bald and written, the
English oracles take him condescendingly up, smooth
his ruined plume, condole with him for venturing
In water beyond his depth; pat him tenderly upon
the back, aud altogether treat him like a wayward
child who erred through Ignorance and not wilful
ness. If Mr. Smith Is of a sensitive temperament he
will not feel over grateful for this sort of patronage.
It Is a poor consolation t be pitied, and as the Pro
fessor has retreated across the border to fire hot
shot at us from under the Dltish flag, It must be only
a deeper mortitiwatlnn to be visited there with no
much British pity. A'. Y. Commercial.
