Sturgeon are now being caught in largo quanti ties in Jameo River and Bappahannock, though they soil for sixteen and twenty cento per pound. Instructions havo been issued by General Hides to quarantine all vessels arriving from Key WeBt, thua placing them in the B&mo cate gory with thon? arriving from the West Indies. A beautiful monument has been orected in the Congressional Cemetery at Washington over the remains of the twenty young girls who per ished by the explosion at the Washington Ar senal. Wskdrdd FatDDiPS delivered a course of leo turea at Taunton, Mass., recently, which, we are informed, proved a decided financial failure. Even a Massachusetts audicaoe, it would appear, can get too rnuoh of a good thing. The message of Mayor Bbown estimates the present value of taxable property in Nashville at eighteen millions of dollars, or nearly four mil lions more than five years age, at the commence ment of the rebellion. In the -distribution of the reward offered for Boots, Detective Baker's expectations were great ly disappointed. Ho claimed fifty-five thousand dollars, and got three thousand seven hundred and fifty dollars I Boivtcb, the novelist, in a letter to a gentleman of Boston, says : " I have closed my career as a writer of fiotion. I am gloomy aud unhappy. I have exhausted tbe poivers ot life, chasing plea sure where it is not to be fono A" A gang of counterfeiters have been detected in Washington lately, having in their possession plates for spurious twenty-dollar oompound-inter cst notes. Plates of the issues of several banks of New York ware also seized. The heated term is upon ub, says the Tribune of Monday. On Saturday the mercury rose to 77 degrees in the shade, and yesterday it is reported as having reached 83; a fact -which is something very extraordinary in the meteorological way. In New York a slaughter-house on the "abattoire" plan is to be immediately erected un der tbe approval of the Board of Health, ou the East River, at One<hundre?*-and-?ixth-etreet. The enterprise will be in running order within six weeks. Tbe fourteenth annual convention and festival tot the North American S?ngerbund will be held in Louisville, Kentucky, on the twenty-third ol July. It will sit for several days, after which a grand excuraiou will be made to the Mammoth Cave. The city of Paris is negotiating the purchase of fifteen hundred acres of land, in the neighborhood of Portoise, twenty miles from the city limits, for the formation of au enormous cemetery, to tho service of whioh a special line of railway will bo devoted. The Bockingbam, Ta., Register says largo beds ?sxhaustless in quantity and rich in quality?of plaster, have been discovered on the lands of Peter Wine, Dear Tenth Legion, in Bookingham, between two and three miles from the Valley Turnpike. Stxphxns, the Head Centre, says, tbat in mak ing bis esoape he never assumed any disguise. He had found Richmond prison so ill-organized that lie only wondered that any one had consented to remain in it ; and the polioe so inefficient that he deserved no credit for eluding them. In opposition to Rsnao's writings, an associa tion has been formed in Paris for making a now and more correct translation of the Bible into Preuob. The first mooting was held in tbe great hall of the Sorbonne, The translators are to be 42 in number, 22 Catholics, and 20 Protestants aud Israelites. It is related of Lord Cocbbuiw, that he was onco sitting on tbo hillside with bis shepherd, when, observing tho sheep reposing in the coldest situation, ho remarked, "John, if I were a sheep, I would lie on the other side o? the hilL" Tho shepherd aus wo rod: "Ah, my lord, but if yo had heoti a sheep ye would hae had mair sense." Tho recent political arrests in various parts of Italy aro estimated at about ninety thousand. There aro actual roturas of arrests by ono corps, tbo Royal Carbineers, of over sixty thousand, the numbers varying from three thousand to seven thousand in all tho principal cities in tho King dom. This dooB not look well tor united Italy. Tbo La Crosse Democrat publishes the oame of a Wisconsin patriot who went to the war, and brought home, among other plunder, a young negro. After keeping tho darkey at montai labor for some months, tho model Republican actually swapped him off for a dog with another Republi can. That's making tho negro "dog cheap." In a Connecticut parish a subscription papor was recently Btartcd for tho support of preaching, and laid first before the miniate* for his subscrip- [? tion, as a member of the pariah. Ho subscribed ' twenty dollars ; no other one subscribed as much. His pay that year was leas than four hundred dollars, inolading his own subscription. More than half tho British House ot Commons is composed of University mon. One hundred and fifty-six are graduates of Oxford, and ono hundred and thirteen of Cambridge. Christ's Church has tho Iargost Dumber from Oxford col leges, viz : 89 ; and Trinity from the Cambridge colleges, viz; 90. There should be hrtoJligont legislation among sooh a hoist of scholars. Tho pestilence, says the New York Daily- Neu?, is still inoroaslng ?among the passengers of tho steamer Virginia, now in the Lower Qaarantine. Tho total number of eiok on board tho hospita c i t F B 8 B t U b r v a t< V ts b a ii P ri v j< vi a Kj ship, on Saturday, was sixty-seven. Tbo steam ship England arrived?ono death having occurred since leaving Halifax, and thai an infant from hooping cough?and was quarantined in tho Low er Bay. Louisa Knait, an Indian girl, committed suicido at Bockland, Wisconsin, on tho 10th instant, by taking strychnine. Bho had boon takon from a wigwam when only five years old, and brought up by a white family as thoir daughter. Although exceedingly intelligent, sbo was very sensitive on account of tho color of her skin. This so proyed upon her mind that she dually sought death as an escape from her Bufferings. The Rochester Union aaya: "There are millions of bushels of rotten wheat now lying in tho store houses at Chicago to be shipped when navigation opon?. This grain, in all stages of decomposition, will bo pnt into Teasels, sent to Buffalo, pnt into elevators, thence taken in canal boats to all pointa where these craft go. ohioily to New York, and thence it will he aent to Now England. This wheat is wholly unfit to be eaten, and will breed cholera wherever it is allowed to go. The New York Daily New?, of the 23d, saya?: ' The Bight Reverend Bi?hop Lynch will bo pre sent this oveniug, at tho concert given at Cooper Institute for the benefit of the orphans of Charles ton, and will address the audience on the condi tion of the orphans under his chargo. Let all who have a heart to feol for theso destituto orphans attend. On this occtvaiou the members of the St. Bridget M. B. and B. Society will comply with their Easter dnty, which will be an interesting ceremony." The Fenian aoaro in Ireland continues. A Fe nian sergeant (English army) was sentenced lately to be shot for treason, for planning a mu tiny in the Cork garrison. Queen Victoria, how ever, commuted hi? Bentence to ponal servitude for life. Fresh arrests of .Fenians were being madoin Ireland. An Irish volunteer in one of the London riflo companies was charged with threatening to shoot tho Prince of Wales. Ten rounds ol ball cartridgo were taken from him. He pleaded being very drunk at tho timo, and was discharged. Tho New York papers, of Monday, montion that Bishop Lynch delivered a ecrmon, on Sunday, at St. Bridget's Church. The Herald says that he spoke of the 8t. Bridget's Bonevolont Society in the highest terms, and coucluded with an appeal to tho congregation for his Buffering and desolate dioceae. Where the Orphan Asylum of Charles ton stood, a monument of piety, there is nothing now but rains, and other charitable establish ments have shared the same fate. A collection was taken up for the Orphan Asylum of this city. The New York Daily News, of the 21st inst., contains a letter from Jamaica, taking up five columns, and giving moat miuute accounts of affairs in that island. The Boyal Commission is in session there, investigating the oharges against Governor Etbx. The writer 1b a friend of Eyre, and by no means an admirer of the ?'peasant;" thinks tho late troubles are en tirely owing to the ill-advised interference of would-bo philanthropists. The prospects for a good sugar crop this year are very floe ; bat the joffee trees, in & large part of the island, have been seriously injured, at least as far as relatos to this year's crop.

FRID?Y MORNING, APRIL 27, 1866. OUR REBELLION. The Richmond Times repudintofl tho idea if the Now York Herald, that the late "re. jollion" belongs to any section of the Union ban the Southern States It says: " We had .bought that if there was anything which we jould call peculiarly our own?which wo sould say was eznpbatioally ours?it was tho rebellion* so-called. Yet there are papers .ublished North, and among them tho Now fork Herald, which seem to be disposed to lispute our possessory title as ' rebels.-* Tbo herald, in a recent editorial, speaks of the rar aB ' our great rebellion,' and prides itself n the grand military lessons which it taught, n the vastness of the armies and tho magnt ude of the battles. It must be admitted that be 'rebellion' t/uu a big thing, and many leople living near to tbe Herald made much aoney and some reputation thereby. But it tri ken us as unequivocally cool that they bould bo terming out rebellion theirs, and bu* manifesting a disposition to share with s the * odium' which they would have us elieve is involved in this great affair. " We think that without any vanity or ar oganoe, we may claim that the * rebellion' ras ours ; and whatever fame or odium is ttaohed to tbe undertaking, we are unwilling > divide tbe former, or to shirk the latter. 7e wish it to be distinotly understood that '0 reoognizo the claim of no one to the 'reb ellion' except that of those who inaugurated ad carried it on. And tbe Herald, in speak ig of it as 'our great rebellion,' appro riates property to which it has no shadow of ight. But it has this much interest in the sneorn?that in common with many other mrnals, it did much of the work in its rfumns which created the war. If this is hat the Herald means, then wo frankly dmit the propriety of ita olaim, and aro will ig to advance it to a very high seat in tho rebellious' synagogue?that used to bo." - ?. -. - . nON. JOHN O. BREOKINRIDGE. Major-General John O. Breckloridge is still at 'oronto. As all tbe rest ot the Confed?rate ?en nln are permitted to go to their homes aod wher ver else tbey please, why, in the name of equal istico and Heaven, is he kept in banishmeut? riiat evil thing has he dono that all other Con ; dor ato officers have not done ? What officer ever ?rried on war ia a loftier spirit of chivalry and oartcey than ho. or treated prisoners of war more Dnuidoratoly and mercifully ? Who ia it that has ois.med the. mind of the Administration against im? "An enemy hath doue this."?Louisville burnat. The Journal is not alone in its surprise ad regret that Mr. Bakckinkidok is not per titted to return to his home. Tho sympathy F millions are with him in his gloomy and Etipful exile, and his frionda, whose name is ?gion.nro ovor ropoatiug the question, "Way this?" Others aa guilty, and less noble and lagnanimoos than him, have received foil and. >niploto p&rdo&a for all offences eotinootod {nc 9 with the war, while he languishes in a foreign land, sighing for the friends and familiar soonos of his old Kentucky home. Wo trust that the day is not distant when a moto gene rous policy will be pursued, and when be will receive permission to rotaru. - - ? a . - - THE CATTLE PLAG UE IN EUROPE. Lato English journals announce a deoided diminution in the spread of tho oattlo plague. Tho announcement is important to us for Bolf ish reasons, as the torrible ravag?e of the disease have within the last month doubled in prico one of tho primo necessaries of life. In England the plaguo reached its maxi mum in tho week onding February 17th, for in that wo ok the number of cases roaohod fifteen thousand. An Aot of Parliament for tho prevention of the spread of tbe plaguo came into effoot on the 20th of February, and the marvellous faith placed by the English people in the offioacy of Parliament has been prodigiously increased. The Act required the immediate slaughter of all eiok animals, and the stoppage of the (transit of oattlo by roil. The salutary effects of these Bimplo measures were at once visible, and in lees than live weeks the number of cattle attaoked by the plague diminished not less than two thirds. During the last week in March there are only four thousand oasob reported, which is cloven thousand less tban for tho week end ing the 17th February lost; and wbilo this improvement may bo attributable to some ex teat to tbe effects of recent legislation, it does not satisfactorily account for so marked a change. The doolioo of the disease must also be attributable to natural causes, as the por oentage of recoveries during the last week of which wo have any report is much greater than duriDg any previous week. Tho cattle plague, like the oholora, no doubt, has its pe riods of access, increase, declino and disap pearance. If the lato favorablo reports of tho dimi nution of the pestilence indicates its speedy disappearance, it has performed its mission of ilef truc ti on much more rapidly than did tho famous cattle plague of the last contury, which lasted twelve years, and was as viru lent in tbe last as it was in the first year of its invasion. The official returns report the aumber of animals that had been attaoked by the disease as 215,000, and the number of in fected localities or "sites" as 23,000. Tho number of recorded recoveries are 30,000, .hue leaving 185,000 as the number killed by ho plague. Besides these, 45,000 animals were slaughtered to prevent them from taking ho disease. These estimates are for the first nine months >f the p?Btilenae, and tbe value of the ani ??is is estimated at four millions of pounds iterling. In consequence of the ravages of he disease, half a million of cattle were im lorted into Great Britain during the years .SG-i-'GH from Holland alone. Every cittren if Charleston who bays a pound of butter or ihooue at this time feels the effects from the ' -avages of the cattle plague in Europe. a. b . ' - The Cincinnati Gazette of the 20th Lost, tevotos two columna to the President's late ; peeoh to the soldiers and sailors who called o pay thoir roppoots to him. From the pinion expressed of it in the outset of the .rtiele, one would suppose that tbe editor lardly thought it worth so studied and ; engthy a refutation, but the pains taken to nswer and counteract its effect, as well by ' tie Gazette as other Radical journals, is < vidence that there wore telling blows de ivered by it. There may be differences of { pinion about the propriety and tbe policy of J itch frequent speech-making by President OHNsoN, and the Rad?cula may speculate as ley will about his objects in so doing, and , rognostioato coups d'etat to any extent, but ae thing is certain, be says true, forcible : ad Htatebinunlike things in a direct uud . omely style, and this it is that troubles their \ mis. To evade their force his opponents re compelled to invent slanders against him ? aid his supporters, as does the Gazette in the t Mowing sentenoe : x The organs of all that party whioh was eon- j ?derate against the Government in the war, are t .Hing upon Mr. Johnson to disperse Con gres j ith the bayonet, and make himself dictator by ' ilitary force. Now that journal knows that no paper in " as country, North or South, of any hue of I )litioal views, has suggested any such step d President Johnson, aud it knows equally ! ell that he never for a moment meditated iy suoh purpose, and that in bis many free id frank communications with all sorts of J - opio, distinguished uud ubbouro, military id oivil, white and black, be has never in- ; mated anything that can be tortured into ioh a construction. * / When Lia enemies resort to ohargos so i ?lpably absurd as this, to destroy hi? in- fi ?ence, the President may feel assured of his _ rength, and pursue the high and even tenor ] ' his way, unmoved by the clamor of the irty proas in tho interest of Radicalism. -,?-] Depth op Baseness.?A prominent South n ootemporary, in a recent editorial, com ?ame bitterly of tho swindling of the ne- j roes at the bands of certain members of < the party of great moral ideas'' who ? ave betaken themselves to the ?South einoo io olose of the war. The artiole concludes . iua: j The bueineas of cheating negroes eeems to be pidly reaching the dignity of ono of the fine ta, and nono of the leading professors now ope- i ting among us are " to the manor born." In former times, at the South, the man who >uld defraud the poor ignorant blaok was re- r urded as tbe basest and most degraded of ? retches. Sheep-atealing was esteemed a re- * oe table business when oompnrcd with that no- E ?rdonable sin. This feeling is to-day as strong *' aong tho late slaveholders of tho South MU? a? flvo years ago. In no instance of wholesale * rindling like tbat to whioh we havo referred ivo tho defrauded negroes accused any citizen a the Sooth of any part la the disropaU&Ie trans* ft ition. WANTS.
