J “The brothers In your monastery here, my father, to pass their lives in a continual dream of peace.*’ “The oysters of Lake Fusaro.” observed the friar, “arc excessively Insipid at this season of , the year.** The application was so pointed that I almost ac cused the holy man of a bit of badinage. —But he was answering in Italian, at cross purposes, my remark in the French language, of which he did not know a word. Looking into his face again-, I saw his Innocence. 'No shaft of malice hail ever been sent through those wide, blue, ignorant eyes, the eyes of a baby who con templates life from Us cradle. He was the most Ijcautifhl old monk I ever talked to, the stnpidest and one of the cleverest. His round, naked, in fantine head, his well-cut bnt meaningless profile, and the long,soft llccce of his beard would have been a treasure to an artist. He looked, in fact, exactly the mild, benevolent, objectless Saint Jo seph who '[days so piteotisa 'foie in the Catholic art— the morganatic hueroind, so good-, hut so superfluous, so far from the purpose of atfalis, and only useful to lean over the Virgin with a slaif or to fodder a donkey in the distance. V Our ornamental old St. Joseph had been snow ing us over his monastery, that of the Camaldoll, so beautifully situafcd ujjfon the hills west of Na ples. With the serene and noble folds of his serge gown bending gently to his motions, he had preceded us through the convent, through the chapel with its pictures, through the monks’ quarters, and even into his bedroom, with its crucifix and the wretchedbench on which he had slept the last fifty years. Then, as the heat abutyj, he had gently managed us along Into the garden, where strange gowned forms were busy weeding the lupines. And finally, towards sun set, he guided us to a lofty terrace, where the ■Gulfs of Naples and of Gnota, held apart by the crowded promontory of Mlseno, swam beneath us. •‘The Fusaro oysters.!” exclaimed il primipe, “you remember eating them at Baiie ? And'the Falemian we had afterwards? • You ate so many.” he added moßt maliciously, mapping Out a liberal space upon the portly bulk of the friar. “ His reverence will misunderstand you,”cau tioDcdl, “he will think you are going to carve him for the table.” “ I had rather eat a monk than an oyster, in summer,” remarked the prince, with perfect cool ness. “A monk lias more devil in him than an oyster. I hunt the monks. I contemn them. I recreate myself (je me moque ) with them.” And I recollected the glance of fnry and out rage loosed upon him by a young priest whom my companion, carelessly pointing him out upon the road, hud happened to touch with his riding whip. No kind of game came amiss to this strange youth, one of the greatest oddities I ever was acquainted with. Spoiled with the servility of his dependants and the title of prince—in Italy where it is so easy to be a prince—and left to the company of inferiors from childhood, he treated his little world ns a plaything, and freely cut at friends, enemies, dignities, virtues and domina tions with that stinging little whip he carried. Cur acquaintance began at a table d’hote, and ended, not too regretfully on one side, at the Naples railway Garde, whither he had swept me in a coach with three horses.. As to my friend W , the prince’s love for him was immense end tropical. He entertained him at the family villa and hotel dependencies at Sorento; rode with him all day long, and at parting tore out the links from his sleeves and forced them Into W ’s astonished hold. At the same time, the young man’s childishness and Imprudence were po extreme as to make his compand compromis ing, like the company of a disguised madman, Tiio first excursion he took with mo, riding gaily out with the driver behind he made for a wall the instant I resigned the lines into Mb hands, de posited the carriage against it on Its ribs, and laid Jail® (fiicmua Itelkthi T. he simple formula which the frate proceeded to deliver by rote was like a bit of Eneas’ tale to Dido. That languid landscape, swimming and evaporating beneath us in sheets of •hills and breadths of purple water, had for its nomen clature the most awful words In Virgil, nay, the names which Homer himself had pronounced with liis lips whitened and his hand shaking upon the lyre. It wpa the pale country which Eneas had explored on the direction of the Cumieau SibyL There, on the west, lay the site of Cnnue itself, whence she came out to Tarquin with the frail and costly books. There, clothed with the pride of summer and the boast of harvests and vineyards, lajr the golden- Elysian fields; There, among the volcanic caverns, lay the dark abodes of the Cimmerians. The poisoned beauty of Cake Avernus—you remember its Unr.rAtt and splendor in Turner’s picture of the Golden Bougie—is at our feet. One uniform tint of pale violet, half effaced, occupies the immense space, all the sky and ali the sea. Sky and sea both commingle: it seemed sometimes as if the little dark boats were birds sailing along the air. Not a sound: we listened painfully for the soft break of the waves. A color softly dissolving in a bath of water will give the best idea of the effacing incidents of the view. I thought of the silent landß where the Sibyl descended, realms peopled with floating shades,—not so cold and so un happy as the Cimmerians of Homer, but— “ Elysian beauty, melancholy grace Brought to a pensive, but to a happy place;” of a life exhaled, restful and vague, waiting until ihc power of the sun should concentrate and kindle it along the shining tide of being, or of dormant soul-embryons, abounding and rolling over meads of asphodel like bees around the flowers. Nisida, Ischia in the distance, Cape Miscno, hardly seemed like real forms, but like "7. born. And further on, over all the landscape, the white tree-trunks, the verdure pale with distance, the pearl-sheets of the lakes, the soft swelling mountains, all the thin, still country seemed as If resting from the fatigue of being, sleeping, dreaming in a monotonous and grateful peace.

Proposed Reception by tbe St. I-onis Rudlcola—Governor Fletcher and General Schurz Blake Speeches. St. Louis, Sept. 2 Delegations of the Grand Army of the Republic and the Radical clubs met to-day to moko arrangements for the reception of General Sheridan. Genera!Fisk presided. Gov ernor Fletcher and Mayor Thomas made speeches. The Governor said the loyalists of Missouri de spised Andrew Johnson, and gloried In Sheridan. The course pursued by Johnson had given hope to evciy rebel in Missouri, and was already felt. Mayor Thomas, in behalf of St. Louis, endorsed tho plan for a reception of Sheridan. l General Schurz proposed to include all classes of citizens, without respect to color, In the demonstration, wMeh was agreed to. Cincinnati, -Sept. 2— The editors of the En quirer were arrested to-day for libel at the in stance of Miles Grcenwoad, the well-known iron founder of tMs city. .us severally in the white Italian dust at various distances from the seat of the coachman ' and of the ciilllculty. To-day for the Carnal-' doll he. insisted upon donkeys. I hate a donkey, because I cannot ride. The creature is always shooting off from hetweenmy legs. How ever, my comrade providing the animals, there was no remedy—for you cannot look, as, Paddy observed, a gift donkey in the ear. So I mounted, but with a boding soul. And what do you think was the catastrophe? Why, the principe, who had been flying off his beast with perfect abandon at short intervals all the way up tho hill, and alighting a little way ahead with unimpaired spirits in the attitude of a saw-horse, finally determined that I should share his exercises. He chose tho Instant when we were meeting the beautiful English girl from the Hotel Crocelle. This superior creature,‘descending from such a limited exploration as a lady is permitted to make in the sanctuaries of monastic celibacy, was returning on a hackney similar to ours, which she rode with the tranquil and elevated air of a Vishnu.. I was willing to make a dignified Impression, If a dignified Impression on donkey back were feasible, upon the English Vishnu, floating downward so placidly on her donkey, as if it had been a lotus of the Ganges. But I had miscalculated the amount of malice resident in in the princine'a riding-whip. At the critical mo ment. when the two caravans were face to face, a kind of organic earthquake took place beneath me, and then we were, both shooting bodily at the English g !asif it were a new bow we were practising, ai. at the same time rudely shaking her own Bud: -ist serenity. One breaks no bones with a fall frc.M donkey-back, but my chance in that particular English direction I felt to be dislo cated forever. “Von may try my donkey if you like.” That was all lie said. Such was this harum-scarum, who made up to all Americans with the most eager confidence, and whose un-American autograph in full, Iltni '!• . Prince de .Santa .S , is written un der a handsome young face in my sketch-book. “And what are all these places below us, father?" asked U principe , with a very slender amount of curiosity, “you have told me a dozen times at least, but I never can remember the words of a parson.” AiavsiGiaEim. Libel Case in Cincinnati. PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1867. EUROPEAN AFFAIRS. THE QUEEN’S SPEECH. Prorogation of the British Parlia ment. . On the afternoon of the 21st ult., Parliament was prorogued by Commission. The Lord Chan ccller read the Queen’s speech, which Is worded as follows: Mr J.oitPH axij Gentlemen: I am happy to be enabled to release vou from the labors of a long and more than usually eventful session, and to oiler you my acknowledgments for the success ful diligence with which you iiave applied your selves to your Parliamentary duties. My relations with foreign countries continue on a friendly footing. At the commencement of the present year great fears were entertained that differences which had arisen between France and Prussia might have led to a war of which it was impossible to foresee the ultimate result. Happily the advice tendered by my Government, and by those of the other neutral States, aided by themoderation of the two Powers chiefly interested, sufficed to avert the threatened calamity; and I trust that no ground at present exists for apprehending any distur bance of the general peace. The communications which I have made to the reigning Monareh.of Abyssinia, with a view to obtain tne release of the British subjects whom he detains in his dominions, have,l regret to sav. thus far proved ineffectual. I have therefore found it necessary to address to him a peremp tory demand for their immediate liberation, and to take measures for supporting that demand, should it ultimately be found necessary to resort to force. The treasonable conspiracy in Ireland, to which I have before called your attention, broke out in the early part of the year in a futile attempt at insurrection. That it was suppressed, almost without bloodshed, is due not more to the disci plined .valor of my troops, and to the admirable conduct of the police, than to the general loyalty of the population and the absence of any token of sympathy with the insurgents on the part of any considerable portion of my subjects. I re joice that the supremacy of the law was vindi cated without imposing on me the painful neces sity of sacrificing a single life. l'he bill for the abolition of certain local ex emptions lrom taxation enabled me to avail my self of a liberal concession made, in anticipation, by the Emperor of the French, whereby several taxes were removed which pressed heavily upon British shipping. I have concluded a Postal Convention with the Lnited Slates of America, whereby the rate of postage between the two countries will be dimin ished by one-half, and further arrangements are in progress for Increasing the intercourse be tween this country and the Continent of North America. The act for the union of the British North American Provinces is the final accomplishment of a scheme long contemplated, whereby- those colonies, now combined in one dominion, may be expected not only to gain additional strength for the purposes of defence against external aggres sion, bnt may be, unitea among themselves by fresh ties of mutual interest, and attached to the mother country by the only bonds which can ef fectually secure such important dependencies— those of loyalty to the Crown and attachment to British connection. Gentlemen of the House of Commttns: I thank you for-tbe liberal supplies which you have voted for the public service. ify Lord* and Gentlemen: I have great satis faction In giving my assent to a bill foipamending the representation of the people in Parliament. I earnestly trust that the extensive and liberal measure which you have passed may effect a desirable settlement of a question which has long engaged public attention; and that the huger number of my subjects who will be for the first time admitted to'the exercise of the elective fran chise may, in the discharge of the dutieg thereby devolved upon them, prove themselves worthy of the confidence which Parliament has redosed in them. It is gratifying to me to find that the lengthened consideration which you have necessarilyi%iven t this important question has not prevented ur entering on many subjects to which your en tion was directed at the commencement ef the evasion, and particularly to such as have immedi ate reference to the well-being of the industrial classes. I have had especial pleasure in giving my assent to bills for extending to various trades, with such modifications as have been found ne cessary, the piovisionsof the Factory Acts, the success of which has proved the possibility of combining effectual protection to the labor of women and children with a due consideration for the interest of the trades immediately concerned. I confidently anticipate from the operation of the present Acts the same improvement in the physical, social and moral condition of the work ing classes which has been found to accompany the application of the Acts to those trades to which they have been hitherto confined. The restraints alleged to be imposed upon workmen and their employers by trade unions and other associations appeared to me to call for iaquliT: and the revelations derived from the examinations before the Commission, to which you gave your legislative sanction, have disclosed a slate of tMngß which will demand yonr most earnest attention. \ The administration of the poof- laWs, which generally has conferred great benefit on the com munity, and especially on the poor themselves, requires constant supervision; and I have readily assented to a bill which,applied to the metropolis alone, will tend to equalize the pressure of taxa tion and improve the treatment of the sick poor, whose condition will be greatly benefited by your well-considered legislation. , The bill for the regulation of the merchant shipping contains important provisions, calcu lated to add to tho health and comfort of those engaged in the mercantile marine. These and other valuable amendments of the law have been the result of yonr labors during the present session; and in returning to yonr homes you will carry with yon the gratifying consciousness that your time and pains have not been misapplied, and that they have resulted in a series of measures which I hope and earnestly pray may contribute to the welfare of the coun try, and the contentment and happiness of my people. 1 THE SALZBURG CONFERENCE. Tlio Imperial Negotiators on Their Way—Napoleon In Robust Health- Row the £mpresses were Dressed and diet—French Precautions—General Rejoicings. Freilassing, Ang. 18, P. M—The Emperor and Empress of the French arrived here at flvo o’clock this afternoon, and were met at the rail road depot by the Emperor of Austria and his consort, the Arclidukcß Ludwig Victor, William and Franz Carl, the entire French Embassy in Vienna, the Prince Hoheniohe and a very select company of visitors. Napoleon, who was dressed in plain clothes, appeared hale and hearty. Eugenie was dressed in a very short wMte skirt, made with a long body, both trimmed with black. The Empresses ofßTance and Austria kissed immediately on meeting, and were simultaneously presented by their husbands to the visitors, and vice versa. Hearty cheers broke out as the train reached tho station, which was decorated very tastefully with the flags of both nations. Tho waiting-room was resplen dent, and exotic plants from Vienna sur rounded a magnificent marble statue of the Austrian Empress. Over two hundred French spies are in Salzburg (his day. Fifty of them, in disguise wore in the depot. This beautiful town, standing in tho middle of an ampMtheatre of hills, will present to-Mght a scene of unparalleled grandeur. Bonfires wRI bo lighted on overy mountain top. fireworks dis played in every gorge, and Imperial salutes si 'multaneously fired from overy fort. Napoleon and Eugenie remain here until Monday. Public OUR, WHOLE COUNTRY; ANOTHER TRAGEDY IN NEW JEH- «*">“* <urr at Boonton— J/lie Victim Gives a. Clue to tlie Sup . I>o*ert murderer—Arrest of the Ac cused* Another atrocious murder was committed on Saturday night last, at the usually quiet little village of Boonton, about eleven miles from -Morristown, N. J., by which a voung man named Carem Carr lost his life. It appctirs that at about half-past eight o’clock on thuevening in question a respectable resident of Boonton was walking along one of the village roads when he stumbled over a prostrate form, and upon examination ascertained it to be that of a man named Carem Carr. A light was procured from a neighboring house, when it was ascer tained that the man was badly cut. The Catholic priest was at once summoned, and arrived m time to assist in removing the wounded man to an adjacent house. Carr was first discovered lying in the road, about one hundred yards from the lock house. Lpon being placed carefully upon a bed the priest washed and dressed the wounds of the in jured man, when a severe cut was found in his groin, about an inch in depth, from which the blood'flowed .freely. The man lived about fifteen minutes after being conveyed to the house. Previous to his death an acquaintance visited him, and deceased recognized him, saying, “Pat, is that you ? I'm gone. Dempsey struck me." Carr repeated the name of the assassin to.other persons present before his death. Officers were at once despatched to effect the arrest of John Dempsey, the alleged murderer, which they accomplished on Sunday morning. He is a man of about thirty yeare, and has a wile and three children. He was found asleep in bed at his own bouse, a short distance from the place where deceased was first discovered, apparently unconscious of the near approach of the officers of the law. Blood was found upon different parts of his clothing, upon the sleeve of nig coat and npon his hands; and the ground from the house to the spot wlftre the victim lay was be sprinkled with blood. It is known that the two men attended a pic nic in the neighboring woods on Saturday after noon, after which they returned to town and drank very freely, both becoming somewhat in toxicated. After drinking at the saloon they walked up the road together, about half an hour previous to the discovery of Carr in his wounded condition. This is all that Is actually known, beyond the feet that there was an old difficulty existing between the men. It is supposed that this difficulty was in some manner alluded to as the two were walking up (the . road, and . that Dempsey went into his own house, precured the weapon and again met Carr, when he gave the fatal blow. ThU is partly substantiated by the fact above mentioned that the road from Demp sey’s house to where deceased lay was saturated with blood. As soon as the tragic affair became known the county eoroner proceeded to empanel a jury, and a coroner’s inquest was held yesterday at the Boonton tavern, before ’Squire Kenhousc and the coroner. The evidence taken was very strong against the accused. The Cntholipipriest testified to dressing the wounds of deceased, and that the conversation between Mm and Carr pertained strictly to spiritual matters. Several witnesses testified to hearing deceased say,- “Dempsey stmek me.” ’ The case has not yet been given to the jury. In case of a verdict of guilty the accused will be taken to Morristown and confined in jail to await trial. Carr was a large and powerful man, and was commonly known by the nick-name “Giant," owing to Ms great mttseniar abilities. He was an unmarried man, and a great favorite among his associates. The knife with which the deed was committed has not yet been found, but a search has been in stituted for its recovery.. The excitement is very great, and the details are anxiously inquired after in the locality where the crime was perpetrated. It is said that Demp sey has admitted Ms guilt, and states that he com mitted the murder in self-defence.—A'. Y. Herald. TRIPLE MURDER IN ARKANSAS. A Despeiate Overseer Attempts to Chas tise a Negro, Is Resisted and Kills a Waman-Alterwards, ill the Court Room, Re is bet Upon by a Negro Mob, Kills Two of Them, and Disap-, pears. Memtiiis, Sept. 2, 1867.—A terrible affair oc curred at Marion, Arkansas, on Friday. A man named Bradley, an overseer on Mr. Key cs’ plan tation, ordered a negro to do some work, and the negro peremptorily refused, when Bradley at tempted to chastise Mm. The negro resisted, and others interfered, and Bradley drew a pistol and fired, killinga negress. The negroes became in furiated, and Bradley fled, not knowing he had killed the woman. At Ms instance two of tho negroes concerned in the attack oir Mm were ar rested, and on Saturday were brought before Magistrate Marcena. During the trial one negro called Bradley a liar several times, when he struck the negro. A party of negroos then set upon him, and Bradley drew a pistol and fired on them, killing two persons. He then turned and fled and has not. been heard from since. The Situation in Washington. [From tho Waihington Correspondence of tho N. A'. Tri buuo.] Washington, Monday, Sept. 2, 1867. —The President is determined to relieve Howard, if what he says on the matter can he believed. He is oMy waiting to find a man to put in the place. Gen. Pope cannot be considered safe iD his po sition. The President gives out that he will surely remove him. When tMs occurs Binckloy’s ser vices will again be brought into requisition, to make a report justifying the President in making the removal. It is given cut that Stanbery’s lieutenant, Bincklcy, is now t engaged in preparing a report on the Presidents charges against Gcns.Sheridan and Howard, similar to his report on Gcn.Sickles. These reports will be submitted to the Cabinet before being jnade public, and anything in the cases ihat injure Jojmson will tie suppressed, of course. Apropos of Binckley, since he has become bo famous as an expounder of law and a writer, it is related here that not a long while ago he was made an editorial writer on the World, and that the first and only editorial he wrote for that paper was rejected, and the manuscript Inclosed to his friend here who had recommended him, asking Mm a tye writer was crazy, It is not likely that the President; will give the Sickles and Grant correspondence. Grant will not lot it go to Uie public, clalniihg that he has opinion is yet divided as to’whethcr the Salzburg meeting will have a political signification or not. The vlßit will be a very quiet enfamille. lIUFJEIUAE fli I; if F> Y' IJL • F ™™. S, J? pt , on,8 ‘ 01 * h ‘ ! Peace Have, menu Kra i>,OC,l l Imperial Uompll- Sai.zi: PRC .August 21, 18157.—1 t is stated that uie desire felt by-tlie Emperors of France and Austria for the preservation of peace will be„ manifested by an invitation to the other Euro pean Powers to join in an agreement which has been entered into between tne two sovereigns for the settlement oi certain questions. The basis of this agreement is believed to be the main tenance of the treaty of, peace signed at Prague. The Emperor Francis Joseph, on presenting Prince Mcttcrmch, Austrian Minister at the Court of the Tuileries, with, the order of the Golden Fleece, eulogized, in presence of the whole court, the services he had rendered tho State by re-es tablishing a good understanding with France, ine Emperor Napoleon expressed aloud to the Emperor Francis Joseph his thanks for this decla ration. This incident created a great sensation among those present. CRIME. no authority to do so,- When■ Congress meets, however, all these supprssed documents will be exhumed and given to the country. This cor respondence, and Grant’s letter to Johnson on the removal of Stanton, will probably be the first things called for on the assembling of Congress. A movement is on foot here, among loyal citi zens from Louisiana and Texas, to petition Con gress at their next meeting to reinstate General blierirtan m command of the Fifth Military Dis tnct. They are of the opinion that the only way this can be done is by impeaching the Pre sident. ft is stated this evening, from a trustworthy source, that Gen. Hancock has upplied for an ex tension of thirtv days to his time before report mg for duty in New Orleans. The yellow fever is so very prevalent there that his physicians and friends urge him not to go at the present time, as he would surely be a victim to the disease, espe cially as he has been so acclimated to the pure air of the prairies. Prominent citizens from Baltimore state that great apprehension exists among the Unionists of that city in regard to the Coming celebration of the anniversary of the battle of North Point, which is to take place in that city en the Bth instant. .The militia of Maryland, since Swann's apostacy, is composed mostly of returned rebel soldiers. Their number is pnt down at 30,000 strong. Those regiments made up in Baltimore and adjacent counties are to take part In the coming celebration. So, also, are several independent regiments, composed mostly of colored men who served in the Union army during the rebellion. A conflict is antici pated. .These Baltimoreans state that the rebel element in Marjdand, and especially in Baltimore, is very great, and they mean mischief, if they can make it. They go so far as to express a willing ness to obey a summons from Johnson to dis perse Congress. THE SOUTH. A Sheriff Removed by Gen. Sheridan. The following order has been issued by General Sheridan: HICAbqRAKTKItS FIJTII MILITARV DISTRICT, Nkw Orleans, Louisiana, August 27th, 18G7. Special Orders No. 127. * * * 7. J. K. QyrndlH.e. Sheriff and Tax-Collector of the Parish of St. Tammany, State of Louisiana, hav ing made incorrect returns of the public moneys collected by him, as shown by an impartial inves tigation, is, at the request of his Excellency, Governor Flanders, hereby removed from his office,and Charles E. Stephens is appointed Sheriff and Tax-Collector in his stead. * + * By command of Major-General P. H. Sheridan. Geo. L. Hartsi fk, Assistant Adjutant-General. A Southern Colored Orator on the Northern Democrats--He .Reads the Bible from the Original Hebrew. From six to eight thousand persons held a political gathering in Macon. Ga., on the 27th nit. Among the principal speakers was the Rev. H. M. Turner, colored, who, in the course of his remarks, expressed himself as fellows; The Southern whites should hate the Northern Democrats. They fooled’ them into war. apd then deserted them to take big offices against them. These Northern doughfaces were heavy on fat offices. For himself, he would as soon take sides with the devil as with these Northern Democrats, and hated them because they had fooled the Southern people, and he had no sympathy with Democrats. What I want is a constitution founded on the eternal justice of the Bible, and on the platform of eternal truth and justice .he was willing to meet the Southern whites. He was opposed to any man doing his voting, and proceeded to read from Bancroft to show that the Southern people had forfeited that right when they engaged in the rebellion and failed. He was in favor of the negro doing his own voting, now that be was free. They owed the same duties to the country as the white man, and should be entitled to the same privileges. He must thank the Legislature pf Georgia, for rejecting the Constitutional Amendment I am satisfied, if we do not reconstruct under the Sherman bill, that God will bring about some greater thing for the negro yet. All we want ib our rights—without them our freedom amounts to nothing. lam opposed to confiscation, and do not want the whites to lose their property; and these, I believe, are the views of the majority of colored men. Turner then proceeded to rebut the Governor Perry objections to the colored man.and also to show the fallacious reasoning of Prof. Agassiz, who asserted that the negro was a distinct race.from the white man. He would be glad to think so; for if that were the case then his Adam had never fallen and bis race were not sin ners, and there was no need for churches among them. If this was so, then is the Bible a liq. He then read from the original 'Hebrew, to show that there had beep but One race created, and that in the express image of its Makcrjand then went on to demonstrate that the anatomical structure of the white and black races were identical. Gov. Perry contended that the negro occupied the same position to the white man that the jackass did to the horse, or the owl to the eagle. If the Governor thought this, why did he wish to crop the wings of the poor owl? Why wish to lock the feet of the poor negro ? He men traced the genealogy of his race according to the Bible and history, and showed that to that race the Greeks and Romans were indebted for learning and civilization...! ask no more for my race than I am willing to grant to yours.

No, there is nothing for the negro; and all he now asks is that tho negro have a lair living chance. Ido not ask for vengeance upon tho white man.

The Washington correspondent of the New York Herald publiehcs the following ancfbnt and foolish story: RADICAL FLANS KOIt DEPOSING THE PRESIDENT AND CARRYING STANTON INTO THE PRESIDENTIAL I learn this evening from a gentleman who is generally regarded as having sufficient shrowd ncss i\nd foresight to see a few moves ahead in the political gome, that a little plan has just been de cided upon in the Radical camp to carry Mr. Sta nton to 'me White House. Tho plan Is sold to have received its linishing stroke during the visit "of Hon. Simon Cameron to this city, which terminated- this morning, Mr. Cameron having left for Pennsylvania. I give it ns a rumor coming from a Radical source, in carrying out tho plan the events, it is said, will occur as follows: Mr. Stanton will resign as Secretory of War, which will bo fol lowed by tho resignation of Senator'Cameron. Governor Geary will appoint Mr. Stanton United States Senator from Pennsylvania; Mr. Wade .will then resign as President of the Sonate, and Mr. Stanton will bo his successor. The Presi dent will be impeached and dcpGGcd, and Mr. Stanton will soat himself in the Presidential chair. Mr. Wado will thon be re-elected Presi dent of the Senate, and Simon Cameron ro? appointed Senator, vice Stanton, Chief Magistrate of the United States. ‘ [The Groat Republic for China, San Francisco, Sept. 2, 1867.—Th0 steamer Great Republic, for China and Japan, which sails to-morrow, will have six hundred tons of freight, $1,000,000 in treasure, forty cabin and six hun dred and forty steerage passengers. , F. 1.
