Oar datoa by mail and the Southern Exproos Company from the North are to tho 23d. From Washington, Diapatohos dated 22d to the Herald state tho following: TH? MEXICAN QUESTION?WTTtmBAWAL OP THE VHKWCU rOBOES. The Fron oh Minister had an intemow, with the Seoretaryof State yo?terday. It ia said that ho presented the formal adhesion of tho Frenoh Gov ernment to the Amerioan principie of non-inter vention as explained by the Sooretary of State. Tho Emperor kindly and cordially replica to the United otates, and engagea to withdraw his troopB from Mexico in threo detaohments; one of them next November, and tho othora in May And No yo ni her, 1867. The full and final oorre&pondonoo be tween tho two Governments which led to this im Sortant rcault will, it ia expected, bo sont to the [onao of Representatives this week, in answor to a call recently mado ou tho Department of-State, on motion of Mr. MoKeo, of Kentucky. NEUTBAUTT?TH? OIIILEAN AND FENIAN DIFFICITL TIBS. Tho Secretary of State in February last, writing to tho late Daniel 8. Dickinson in relation to the steamer Meteor, which was eeized and prevented from being usoa as a Chilian privateer against Spain, said: "The President is determined that tho neutrality lawa of the United States shall bo administered in good faith with entire fairness." Tho principio thus announced will, there is no doubt, be as strictly applied in preserving tho Seace between Great Britain and tho United totes should the Feniana seriously endanger it. TBOTJBLES OF OFFIOE-SEEKEBfl. The difhoultice of ofuco-aeekors, great enough at heat, bave been seriously increased by the antagonism between the President and tho Bonete of tho United States, Heretofore the labor of pro curing an appointment was considered formid able, hat when once obtained the lucky individual had no further anxieties of mind; hut nowadays he has to perform the two-horse-act of playing the conservative role to the ProBidont an?! tho radical dodge to the Sonate. This looking ono way and rowing another has already led to nomo rich exposures, and several others are expected. It cannot be profitably played much longer. Ap plicants will soon have to define their positions and face the muslo. COIXEOTOB OF MOBILE. The confirmation of Mr. Elmore as Collector for the port of Mobile has not been refused by tho Senate, as published ia oertain New York papers. No action has yet been taken on the appointment in exeoutive session. Lewis B. Paraone, Provision al Governor of Alabama, is expeoted here in con nection with this appointment, when Borne action ,wul probably Boon bo reached. . -. . THE BADICAL CHIEFS AT VABIANOE. , MessrB. 8tevens and S?mner are at loggerheads about a reconstruction polioy, Thad.: has 'juat begun to understand that there'are'but'three branches of tho. Government, two of them (the exeoutive and the judicial) working together; and he realizes that the time is at hand when the legislative branch must give in. The Senator holds out, while Thad. upbraids him b?oause he has so little consideration for the life of the party. THE CHOLEU.A IK NEW YOuk. The epidemic at present prevailing among the passengers of the steamer Virginia ia still on the increase, and is daily commuting farther ravages among tue unfortunate victims now on board of the hospital ship, despite the excellent precautionary measures adopted toprevent the further spread ing of the disease. Twelve new oases haye.ooour rra, whioh makes tho total number now in tho hpspltal seventy-nine, and. there were five addi tional deaths on board of tho Falcon, making fif teen in all since the Virginia readied thie -port. ?There was no communication between the shoro and the infVcted vessels yesterday until elate hour in (lib' afternoon,,'when Dr. a win bur no, tho Health Officer, procoedod'.in a tag to tho l':wer hay. for th? purpose of Ascertaining how mattere at the Lower Quarantine wore progressing. It being vety. late when-'?ho tug returned, no inter intelligence than .-what is stated abovo could be obtained in regard (?either the Virginia, England. or the hospital ship Falcon. Dnring the squall oh Saturday afternoon.--the email eloop Four Brothers, acting as tender to the hospital ship, apd employed for removing the dead, conveying the sick and carrying stores, was capsized in the lower bay, but fortunately no lives were lost, those on board taking to the email boat, thus saving themselves by the merest'accident. The tug which conveyed Dr. Swinburne to the Quaran tine also towed down two email lighters, which were employed yesterday evening in raising tbo eloop, and it is expeoted that she will be again placed upon duty this morning. FAOTS BELATINO TO THE 8TEAMEE ENGLAND. The steamer England, which arrived at this port on Saturday morning from Liverpool via Halifax, had fifty deaths among the passengers dnring the passage, and while at Halifax one hun dred and fifty mo: o occurred, which made a total of two hundred. Dr. 8later, tho Health Officer of Halifax, who in the faithful discharge of his du ties proceeded on board of the England to alle viate the distress of tho afilio ted, was stricken down with the disease and died on the 6th inst. While at Halifax one hundred of the siok were removed from the England to sheds upon an ad jacent island, and at the time of the steamer's de parture for New York but sixty of these remained, the other forty patienta having taken Frenoh leave and decamped for parts unknown. All of the passengers now on board the England are looking remarkably well and are evidently well oared for. The surgeons on hoard of the vessel r?port the present number of passengers ae 16 in tho oobln and 872 iu the ateerage. No now oases have occurred for several days. THE 1UDI0AI, COHBTHUCTION ?LA.?. The Washington correspondent of the New York World, under date of 22d says, in reference to the plan of the Beconstrnotion Committee for restoring the union: It has been given out in confidential circles for some days past, that the Radicals were maturing a general plan of reconstruction of tho Southern States. But fow wero initiated into tbo mysteries of this Boheme. It appears that it onianntod from Robert Dale Owen, who, it la said, submitted it to the President. Yesterday the Roconstruotion Committee met at an early hour, when the plan was unfolded to the committee by Ihadde-UB Ste vons. It is understood that tho committee agreed toit. It is moro rndjcal than anything lhat has heretoforo come from'that direction. It is in the shape of a joint resolution to amond the Consti tution, and profesaos to provide for the restora tion to the Southern States of all their political rights. Article first of tho amendment says that there shall bo no discrimination made by any State nor by the United States as to the civil rights of per aons booauso of race, color, or previous condition of servitude. Seaond. That from and after the fourth day of July, In the year 1876, no discrimi nation shall he made by any State nor by the Uni ted States SB to the enjoyment by classes of per sons of tho right of suffrage because of race, er color. Third. Until July 4, 18G7, no class of per sons as to tbo right of any of whom suffrage discri mination shall be made by any State, because ol race cr oolor or previous condition of servitude, shall bo included .in the basis of representation. Fourth. Debts or obligations already incurred, or which may. be hereafter incurred, iu aid of insur rection or war ?gainst the Union, ?nd claims for comoenaation for loss of tho sor rico of persone hold to in voluntary servltadcor labor,! shall not be paid by any State or by the United ututos. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge, the privileges | or immunities of .citi zens of the United States. It ia tlion furth'ei to bo provided by AmV'-of 'Congress that when evor the above amendment shall bavo boeomc part.of the Constitution, and any of tho Southern States shall ha ; fctitutlori and ..

Tho above will probably be reported to tho House to-morrow. The statement that this soborne is approved by the President is without any foundation in fact. It was submitted to him several days ago by Ro bert Dalo Owen, but he gave no indicatio n, by word or aotion, that he looked upon it with favor. There is authority for stating that the President not only disapproves of it, but regards it as a moat dangerous and revolutionary aohemo against the rights and privileges of tho 8tatOB. North and South. It romains to be aeon whether Congress can be made to accept it. HA80NI0 VISITATION. The 7Vi&*'7ie'.i correspondent says : President Johnson, who is a membor of tho Maaonio fraternity, has invited tbe Supreme Coun cil of the Southern Jurisdiction to visit him to morrow morning. TBE FINAL AtVODBNBIENT OF CONOIIESS. It is the opinion of prominent Congressmen that tho present session of Oongroaa will bo cloaed early in June. Apart from the eubjeot of recon struction all other business can he cloaed in seve ral weeks. HI. K. General Conference. [From the Net? Orleans Timetofthe 19t7l intt., Gouferenoe met at the stated hour?Biahop An drew presiding;. Minutes of Wednesday road and approvod. Tho timo of the Conference for tho past two days was occupied with an appeal case from tho Virginia Couferenoe. Tho judftmontof tho An nual Conference in the caso of David F.

The Chairman of the Committee on Episcopacy submitted their report, reviewing the administra tion of tho Biahops for the past eight years. The report was adopted. The chairman of the Committee on Books and Periodicals submitted their report, No. 4. It proposes to reorganize tho publishing house, and re-ostabllah it at Nashville, Tenn.

The eteamehtp Virginia, now at th? New York quarantine, with cholera on board, sailed from Liverpool and Quonstown, with fourteen cabin and twolve hundred and nine Bteerage passengers. Beforring to the appearance of the cholera on the steamer, the New York Times remarks : There.is a theory that certain conditions of the atmosph?re are conducive to cholera, and that there are certain zones wherein the pestilence is most rapidly generated. It is remarked, also, that cholera was developed on board the Virginia in tbe latitude where it first appeared onboard the steamship England. The. faots aeem to be that tbe steerage passengers of both vessels, huddled together as a thousand persons must necessarily be in a vessel of less than three thousand tons burthen, were attacked when they had been long enough together.to poison tue atmosphere of the ship, and that isothermal lines and cholera zones bad notbiog to do m the case. The Virginia cast her moorings at Liverpool on the 4th hint. At that time no case of cholera bad been reported in Liverpool. None of the passen gers?chiefly German immigrants?with whom ehe sailed are known to have come from any dis trict whero cholera has prevailed; nor had any of the number been ill during their brief tarry of leas than a week in Liverp :ol. The ship tonohed at Queenatown, Ireland, and having there taken aboard a number of paasengerB, made out to sea ?a ship of 2876 tons with more than a thousand Immun being* stowed away in two tiers, or be tween three decks. No apprehension of cholera or any other] dis ease was entertained until the ship bad been a weok on the Atlantic; but then, on the 12th in.it., a steerage passenger, who had been suddenly pros tratedoy what was aupposod to be a violent form of diarrbcea, died. There was diarrhoea, as tho ship's surgeon supposed, everywhere In the Bteer age, and even after the death of the first victim the surgeon was unwilling to deolare it a case of cholera. But two moro sudden deaths on the 12th and others on the 13th convinced the skeptic that the steerage of the steamship was really suffering under a visitation of Aeiatio cholera. From the 12tb until the arrival or the Virginia in port on the 18tb, tho disease stalked with fear ful strides through the Bteerago,and when tha ship reached the quarantine on'Wednesday eve ning nearly all the passengers except those of tho cabin wero mure or leas affected. Dr. Swinburne, oi the sanitary committee, who visited the steamer after her arrival, roports that all the eick had unmistakable symptoms of Asiatic cholera. Their countenances were of a dusky color, their eyes were sunken, and they were suf fering from tno purging? incident to the disease. Their hands and bodies were shrunk, aud they had other marked symptoms of cholera. The surgeon's asaiatant had boon taken down, and his place had to bo supplied. Ten or twelvo other passengers wero auiierlng under cholera in its in cipient form, and thoao passengers who were but slightly affected, or who had oacaped altogethor, wero filled with apprehension lest they should bo ' attacked if they remained on board the ship. Dr. Swinburne ascertained that three persona had died whilo the vessol was coming up tho bay, and that the bodies of these had been thrown ovor board, and attached by a line to the ship. Not withstanding tho solicitations of tho paasongero, i the doctor ordered that no person?not even the i pilot?should bo permitted to leave the ship under i any circumstances. Tie Government has allowed . the commissioners of quarantine the u?o of the steamer Illinois for placing the well on board, and those afflloted with the epidemio will be re moved to tho hospital ship. ' r .- ' s*v-; C Tho Richmond Tones states that a terrier dog, : the property of Mr. McExsx, of Richmond. Va., K wan acoldently looked in the rubbish room, and i remained twonty-osc days without loud or water. 1 When found it was roducod almost to a skeleton but was a till living, and has stneo recovered en* r tlroly from tho effects of it? long fasting. .-,*,- . ' g ,?-.V*>!> . - - i Nu iva to rc? Patrice. While the war was in progress it was customary on the other side of the line to apply such words as "holy," "saorod," "divine," ?ko., not only to tho cause itself, but to its enterprises, ends, moans and champions. If our memory ia not at fault, the famous Dr. Tyncj, in an address to a body of recruits, familiarly and pleasantly known as "Wi-cson's cut-throats," gavo them "the most comfortable assurance" that if tboir valuable lives should be lost in the pious service they wcro 'entering upon, thoy would go straight to glory. The Rev. Beecueb brought the Bible and the bay onet, psalm-singing and shooting, into happy as sociation by inventing tho term "bally-halleln jah!" It is to be regretted that any thing should occur to disturb the consolatory thought that the Union armies wero composed altogether of saints, for we can well understand how, even to tho van quished, thero would be relief in suoh a thought. Bat thero is, it must b? admitted, something a little unsettling in tho fact that the law is kept pretty busy han?.-ing men who went through the war. That affair near Fhiladelphia, tho other day, tbo killing of the Deebino family, is a great stumbling block. And when wo read such remarks as the following, which form part of an editorial article in tho Now York World, of Thursday last, wo do not know what to think : A noto from a friend in New Orleans asks ub to call attention to several peculiar advertisements .now appearing in the Southern papers. Theao advertisements offer rewards for the return of valuable private libraries stolon by offioors of tho Union armies, and appropriated to their own use during tho lato war. One gentleman saya thore were taken from bis house some three hundred volumes, mostly raro French ami Spanish books, relating to the early history of Louisiana, whioh cannot bo replaced by purohae?, and for which he now offers five dol?ais por volume. Large re wards are also offered (and no questions asked) for the return of other souvenirs stripped from Southern houses, and which are now known to be in the. possession of certain captains, colonels, brigadier and major-generals, who havo a great deal to eay about their publio services and very little about their private stealings. Oar New Orleans correspondent himself saw six or eight boxes' of household knick-knacks and women's and children's clothing which were stolen in Pensacola by Neal Dow, and were stopped at the Custom House in New Orleans. This eamo Dow. was convicted of stealing a sil ver pitcher from Bradish Johnson. Libraries, wardrobos, plato closets, and picture galleries in New Orleans, and in other cities, were stripped during the war; and the peculiar performances of Butler and his followers In this line are more no torious in history, than are any of their exploite in the field. Peace ought to bring repentance, and if conscionco does not urge the return of these family relics and private property, tho largo rewards now offered, and which will be offered, ought to induce the particularly "patriotic" to disgorge at least a portion of their plunder. We do not.appeal to their sense of propriety, or hon esty, or Justice. We merely take leave to inform them that they can make a good thing of it pecu niarily by disgorging their plunder. Cnora m Axabaka.?The Chambers (Alabama) Tribune of tho l?th aaya the oropa in that portion of Alabama are in a most prosperous condition. The wheat is unusually fine for the season, and moat of the corn planted is up and flourishing, and the farmers are sowing m their cotton, of whioh' an immense amount is being planted. Al together, the present prospects for a rich yield thjs year, both of cereals and tho great staple, are cheeriDg indeed. We hoar of little or no com plaint of freedmeo, and think the great majority of them are disposed to do right. In fact we hear t?as complaint from employers inrtbiB section than any other wo know of, Tho prime reason of this. i?>, no doubt, the fact that our community is free from the demoralizing induenoo? of - the military trisa the freed mon'-? .burbBtt, in oar im media to pr? senos; for where (bese evils exist negroes frill not do as'well a? otherwise.. i: 'il1.;.9.:: . ? i. ? ! .. A correspondent of the Ne.w Ytok.ZTtma?, writing from Wilmington, N. O., writes that "tho rice plantations and turpentine orohards?n Cope Fear will hearty all bo worked this year, most o? them having' been rented by Northerners. Some of them are the most valuable in the South. So far as I have been able to learn, the. froedmen en gaged on them are behaving themselves extraor dinarily well; and are quite contented. Host of the old overseers.on tho plantations havb been retained by the lessees, and, strange as it may seem, the blacks- prefer them {to Northerners. They, tell me. that the Yankees work them too hard, whioh,[ I suppose, is. a sufficient reason." AN IMMENSE EMIGRATION.
