(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.]
ST. PAUL'S PARISH, June 13.
Politically, "all's quiet along the Toogoo
doo," and our colored fellow-citizens who bad
hung up "the shovel and the hoe," and Bip
Yan Wlnkle-llke had fallen Into a long sleep, a
sleep lull - f br' rht and happy dreams ot Ken?
tucky mules and lands favored with showers
of milk nod honey, now commence to awaken
to the f ict that republics are ungrateful, and
the sons of Hem not to die must roor. Ac?
cepting the situation, they have again sprung
lo the hoe, and with willing hand are once
more doing their duty.- They appear to think
that th* "star" of the "Prince ot Beggars" ls
sinking, ard that the coming man ls one who
told the world "What I know about farming;"
that upon bis shoulders will lall the mantle once
so modestly and honestly worn by the Father of
his Country. The Tom, Dick, Harry "Grants"
of our section, numbering hundreds, have
changed, in disgust, their names. The Venus
limbs ot the tree now wear white aprons
edged with brown ribbon, and Adonis branches
sport trie white toga of the "Tribune."
A lew words now about the growing crops.
The area In cotton ls a small per centage
arger than that of last year, and the aver?
age in com about equal to that of 1871.
Those who planted earl; have generally
splendid stands of cotton and flattering pros?
pects of large yield; many, however, planted
late, or rather Just as me dry weather be?
gan, and repeated plantings became neces?
sary to obtain a good Bland. This cotton is
small, but ls healthy, and 1B growing rapidly.
The corn crop, BO lar. is promising, and
among the most flourishing fields are many
owned by "de bottom rall now on de top."
8ambo ls jubilant, sings Old Hundred, and
will buy his own mule. "Giant done fool dis
dividual"
Commercial fertilizers have been generally
used, and in quantity, perhaps, In excess ol
that of the past season. ?
The contract system of labor Is the one
adopted here, and works well; the cost of the
colton crop will not differ from that ot last
year.
The first cotton blossom seen by us this sea?
son was on the plantation ol Messrs. C. P. and
G. W. Aimar, the first exhibited being on . ie
3d ot June. The conon on ibis place ls really
splendid; almost uniform lu size, lt siands
twenty Inches, ls vigorous and loaded with
forms. This field, when seen by us, was as
. clean as a well-kept 'carden, and reflects no
' little credit on the young planter who here
wields the baton ol field marshal.
At some future day, we may, perhaps, again
ask the privilege of a little corner In the col?
umns of your aoly conducted journal.

[FROM AM OCCASIONAL C0RRB8P0NDBNT.]
SPAHTANBURG, S. C., June ll.
Since my Inst communication, business has
called me to many parts of our county, and
the result o? many a pleasant chit-chat with
our farmers and planters, has caused this
second communication from your occasional
correspondent, as I learned from them some?
thing in regard to the present growing crop.
This, together willi what I have seen of the
same, I will give you for wi at lt ls worth. On
a direct line mooing tbrout b our county due
east and west, I find on the i outh of said line
near three-fourths of the lam? is planted In cot?
ton, and on Inquiry I learn that about one-third
more fertilizers have toen used on the same
than at any previous year. North of Bald line,
which has usually been considered as least
adapted for gram, nearly one-ball ls now In
cotton, and rullj one-fourth more fertil?
izers used than has ever been oefore at
any period, and the results of the sam" are
almost already visible. And I have never
seen crops everywhere lu any better condition
for growing. The long drought of May and
part o? April has glveu the laborers a good
opportunity to destroy all weeds and grass,
and most of tbe farms X have passed appear
more In the condition of well-culilvated gar?
dens, rather than farms or plantations; and I
learned that all laborers, without regard to color
or sext, were doing well their duty. No poli?
tical gatherings or ca?seles barbecues to de?
tract their attention or distract their minds.
Thus lar nt> candidate lor any office, either
State or county, bave announced themselves,
and I hope they have wisely thought to await
the finishing up ol the cultivation ot tbe crop
ere they would do so. As regards the politi?
cal condition of our county, our people gene?
ral are lukewarm. Our county will be
ranked In the present convention In Colum?
bia as one of the do-nothings, as she will not
be represented by any regular appointees. But
sba will Bbow in October next, though ap?
parently quiet, yet at labor In mind as well as
in body, and will tell her tale, not in words,
but In votes for Greeley and Brown, and In a
heavy crop to sustain them in their bereave?
ment over heavy taxes caused by a present
corrupted and an expected rotten State gov?
ernment. Well may lt be said with such a
prospect of a full crop ahead, and a few more
such relresblng showers as we have received
generally within the past few days, with
grounds well prepared, with all earnest In
labor, and fertilizers used lu abundance, well
may we expect lu the tall gol JUL. results, and
joined with the expectatloa of seeing our
government offices at Washington once more
rilled with honest patriots. What blndereth
great happiness, save the corruption of our
own Slate government which blasts all hope of
future enjoyment with the blight of death.
The president and directors of the Atlanta
and Richmond Air Une Ballway will meet to?
morrow In convention in our town. Moat of
them, have already arrived. Should anything
occur of interest I will in.orm you In another
short communication. MARSH.
THE GROWING CROPS.
Greenville.
The Mountaineer says : "This ls with us thc
season of wheat and oat harvest, and our far?
mers are very busy cutting the same. Wheat,
in all sections, ls reported as belog remark?
ably fine; but the oat crop ls very variable,
some will scarcely make seed, while others
enjoy an abundant yield. We have seen speci?
mens of red runt proof and black oats, raised
In inls county, widen average more than live
pounds to the ordinary bundle, many bundles
weighing as much as ten pounds, and none
less than five. These oats were planted last
September, and raised on poor lands. Be
freshing showers, which have been very gen?
eral throughout the county, have, for the time
being, relieved the apprehensions ot the far?
mers, caused by the lengthened term of hot
and dry weather."
The Enterprise says : "One or two showers
have fallen during the past week. On Monday
morning last the rain was a very good one,
and ot great advantage to the growing crops.
The warm weather ls what ls needed, provi?
ded lt ls not too dry. Tan crops generally, we
think, are doing well. Colonel McCullough,
of *.be lower portion of Greenville, speaks
well of corn, cotton and wheat. Wheat ls be?
ing rapidly cut, and the quality ls Said to be
very good, although much will be difficult
to pave on account of the shortness of the
stand."
Anderson.
Tbe Intelligencer says: "Refreshing rains
fell In many portions of this county on Sun?
day and Monday last, including this Immediate
vicinity."
Marlboro'.
The Times says: "The weather continues
dry, and the crops are burning up. Last Sat?
urday night we bad a slight ralo at tbl* place,
but not enough to do any good ot consequence.
The same ls true of every other place In the
county that we have heard trom, except the
neighborhood of the Burnt Factory. There
was a pretty good season In that neighbor?
hood. Our farmers are generally low-spirited
In regard to crop prospects."
Kershaw.
l*the Journal gays: "From Lynche's Creeks,
Big and Little, we learn that the crops, corn
and cotton though small, look healthy, and
will produce finely if rain falls by the first ot
July. From Liberty Hill and Flat Rock we
i glean the same lldiugs. Western Wateree
I atoo is dry, and rain ls much needed, but as
yet the crops have not been materially affect?
ed by the drought."
Lancaster.
The Ledger says: '-The accounts from the
cotton and corn crops in this county are en?
couraging. With good seasons from this out
lhere will be no cause for complaint with the
industrious farmer. Oais in porno sections
are not very good. A violent gust of wind,
accompanied by a few minutes fall of heavy
rain, passed over this place on Monday last.
The wind was of unusual force, in some places
prostrating fences and uprooting trees."

A Herald correspondeot repone an Inter?
view with President Grant at Long Branch.
The President said that the release of Dr.
Howard had been demanded of the Spanish
Government, and he presumed lr would be ac?
ceded to. On being interrogated on the Presi?
dential qnestlon bo said he tnought G-eeley'a '
chances for nomination at Baltimore were
about even, and his chances of election lay
with the Ballimore Convention. He believed
Greeley would withdraw if a straight-out Dem?
ocratic ticket was nominated, and he hoped
Greeley would be endorsed at Baltimore, as he
would then know whom be was fighting. The
President remarked at the close of th? inter?
view that the Cabinet had not discussed what
shall be done in case Spain refuses to release
Dr. Howard. _
GOSSIP FEOM WASHINGTON.
The President's Departure-The Latest
Hitch in the Washington Treaty- |
Habeas Corpus Himself Again.
[Correspondence of the Baltimore sun. |
WASHINGTON, June ll.
The President's departure tor Long Brauch
this morning created a reeling ol' bluer disap?
pointment amona: senators and members, del?
egates to the Philadelphia convention and
others having business with the Executive.
Tne ante-room of the White House was full
most of the day with callers, who very gene?
rally were under the "Impression that the
President would not desert the White House
quite as soon as Congress deserted the Capi?
tol." Some indignant Republicans who had
Important business to transact, and could find
neither the President nor either of his secre?
taries, declared that there was more truth
than they had supposed In Mr. Sumner's
charge tbat the Executive spent most ol his
41 me in "seaside loiterings." A great many
had purposely delayed pressing their malters
on the President uutll Congress had gone, In
order that he might have more time.
Ou Sunday the greatest confidence was felt
in administration quarters that the Treaty of
Washington had been saved. Indeed, one or
two Cabinet officials declared that they did noi
see how there could be any room to dornt
that an amicable settlement had been reached
at last. England, however, on Monday inter?
vened fresh technicalities, which the adminis?
tration lnsisted had been already covered, and
to which lt replied that lt could go no further
and wonld not be a pariy to the postponement
of the arbitration. The President and Secre?
tary of State will, therefore, await the deci?
sion of me Ecgllsh ministry, wnlch Just now
Ind?cales either a long postponement ot the
treaty or Hs absolute abandonment. Toe
President was of the opinion last night that
the treaty had failed, but Earl Granville's
promised explanation In Parliament to-mor?
row Is awaited with Interest.
The power to suspend the writ of habeas
corpus expired at nine o'clock last night, with
the end ot the session of Congress, io which
lt was, by the fourth section of the Ku-Klux
act, restricted. Some of the* South Caro,ina
delegates to Philadelphia, who are here, are
already prophesying, with characteristic em
I plias;?, a reinauguraron of outrages in the
district so recently under the control of
' martial law.
The President wrote his letter of acceptance
on ibe Philadelphia nomination while at the
capitol yesterday afternoon, after his return
from the Executive Mansion, where be had
received the presidents and vice-presidents of {
the convention. Sitting down at a table, he
carefully read the letter formally notifying
bim ot the selection, and taking up a lead
pencil, he commenced writing his reply on a
hall-sheet of let ter paper. Senators Wilson
and Losan, Solicitor-General Bristow, Secre?
tary Robeson, Judge Wm. A. Richardson,
General Cowan, assistant secretary of the In?
terior, General Babcock, and Ur. Lui key, of
the executive department, being present, and
engaged in conversation. The President
wrote rapidly, and when ho had finished the
letter, read lt aloud to thosw present, upon
which they all expressed themselves highly
pleased wiih it. A veaal alteration suggest?
ed by one of the gentlemen present was ac?
cepted by the President, but wild this excep?
tion the original draught ot the letter bears no
erasure. Alter press copies had been made,
the President gave the original draught to
Solicitor-General Bristow, at the latter's re?
quest.
A (batch of sorehead Democrats, about
twenty-five In number, representing Vir?
ginia, Texas, Indiana, Kentucky, illinois,
Arkansas and New York, held a secret meet?
ing last evening at the Owen House, and re- J
solved that, In tie event ot tbe Rainmore Con-1
ventlon endorsing the nomlneess of the Cln- i
clnnatl Convention, Immediate steps be taken
to call anoiher convention for the purpose of I
nominating Democrat lc candidate-* for the
Presidency and Vice-Presidency. Their head?
quarters are at Indianapolis, with Colonel
Grev as their chairman.

WASHINGTON, May 30, 1872.
My Dear Friend-la reply to your letter I
am confident that the general acquiescence in
the nomination ot Mr. Greeley by tbja Demo?

such a result will remove all the difficulties
which the South now rest under. I hope tht

The Story of hla Abduction from Cana?
da- A Nat for John Bail to Crack
The identity of the mysterious prisoner who
was recently Kidnapped in Canada and car?
ried to Detroit, where he was arrested, Is es?
tablished at last. He was no other than Dr.
J. Ruins Bratton, of Yorkville, in this State,
who left his home in October last about the
lime President Grant delegated to Merrill the
power that had been delegated to him by Con?
gress to arrest and imprison citizens at his
will and pleasure. At the December term of
the United States Court a true bill lor con?
spiracy and for being connected with the
hanging of Jim Williams was found against
Dr. Bratton by the grand Jury. He was
brought to York ville on Monday last. In charge
ot the somewhat notorious detective, Joseph
H. Hester, and lodged In jail.
On Wednesday last, as already reported in
THE NEWS, a motion was made before Judge
Bryan for the release of Dr. Bratton on ball,
and the amount was fired at twelve thousand
dollars. The required security belog prompt?
ly furnished, the doctor was released, and
now awaits his turn for trial at the August
term of the court.
A Grant Newspaper Account or the Kid?
napping-Chloroform TJaed-The Vic?
tim Pronounced Guilty of Eleven
Murders on the Authority of a Detroit
Reporter who Ssw lt in his Pace.
[From the Detroit Po-t, June 6.]
Upon the arrival of the Great Western B*"
ferry boat Union at the Michigan Chiral dock
in this city, about ten o'clock Tuesday night,
three men lett the boat, and, entering a hack,
were driven rapidly to the Central Police Sta?
tion where ?wo of them alighted, the third
remaining in the carriage. Approaching the
sergt ant in charge, one of the strangers au
noun :ed himself as a United Slates defective,
and atated that his companion was bis pris?
oner, a", the same lime exhibiting a requisition
for his arrest from Governor Robert h.. Scott,
of South Carolina. The officer was Joseph G.
Hester, of the United S?aies Secret Service,
and his companion was one of ihe most noto?
rious Ku-Kiux leaders in South Carolina,
whose operations at the head ot an organized
gang of outlaws have been a long series of
murders, outrages and acts of violence upon
the persons and property of loyal and peacea?
ble citizens of that Stale. The third stranger
-who remained seated in the hack-was S. B.
Cornell, an officer from Columbia, S. C., who
?had been on ihe track ot the outlaw chief
since his hurried departure lrom the South
several weeks ago, and to whose detective
skill may be attributed In a great measure the
credit ot this important capture.
The prisoner was a tall, jaunt Southerner,
about forty-five years of age. His hair was
slightly Hoged with gray, and he had keen,
piercing blacK eyes, which Indicated shrewd?
ness, Intelligence and determination. He was
dressed In a plain suit of gray mixed cloth,
with a black sloucn hat, and his whole appear?
ance was that of a respectable well-to-do larm?
er. When asked his name he replied that he
was a prisoner and would not divulge his true
name, but for the present would be known as
James Simpson. He gave his nativity as Ala?
bama, ano his occupation as that of a farmer.
'.Simpson" was then taken in the captain's
office and carefully searched, when lc waV
found that he had $108 85 In money, a watch,
pocketbook, and a surgeon's lancet, mit carried
no arms and had no papers whlcn gave any
clue as to his righi name. He steadfastly per?
sisted In denying his identity, but lt r '.s evi?
dent to the most casual observer t hat he was
notan Innocent mau. HH seemed greatly
dejected by bis capture, and his whole de?
meanor waa that of a desperate man huuted
down by his pursuers and seeing no means ot
escape. Simpson was placed In a cell and
permitted to remain until shonly after mid?
night. Then detectives Hester und Cornell
took him away in a close carriage, stating
lhatthey would place him in Jail for safe-keep?
ing until morning, when they would bring
him before United Slates Commissioner Da?
vison. In detective parlance, however, this
was only a "stall," as they at one? drove to
tne Russell Bouse, where they quietly regis?
tered and were shown to room 111 and re?
mained until morning, when the trio were
driven to the Lake Shore and Michigan Somh
ern depot and look the Buffalo express, which
leaves at. hall-past seven o'clock.
The officers weie very uncommunicative in
regard to their prisoner, and seemed extremely
fearful lest he should by some means escape
them, or be taken from their custody by a
writ of habeas corpus. This doubtless ac?
counts for the secrecy o? their movements and
their sudden departure. In regard to the
manner in which Simpson's capture was ef?
fected, the following facts have come to the
knowledge of our reporter, despite the strenu?
ous efforts which were made to keep the affair
dark. It seems that the Eu-Klux leader had
been closely tracked since nls departure from
South Carolina, but had succeeded In keeping
out ol'the way ot his pursuers until safely In
Canada. For some two weeks past he bas
been stopping in London, Ontario, on the line
of the Great Western Railway, although close?
ly under the surveillance of the officers ail this
lime. When the decisive moment arrived,
Simpson was arrested and hurried on board
the cars, and In order to insure a quiet trip,
and prevent "accidents," he was kept under
the Influence ot chloroform until saiely on this
side of the river.
By thli time "Simpson" is well on his way
toward South Carolina, where, If lie does not
escape, or ls not rescued by lils friends, he
will be tried uuder the "Ku-Klux act." He. 's
said to be one of the most desperate of ihe
horde of outlaws and desperadoes whose acts
of bloodshed and violence have filled the meas?
ure to repleUoa for mout hs past, there being
no less than eleven Indictments peudlng
against him for the crime of murder alone.
A HARRO WINO SCENE.
The Arrival tn New York of Twenty
Three South Carolinians Consigned
to the Albany Penitentiary-Sen?
tenced to Rot to Death.
[From the New Torie Sun, June 12. j
The steamship Champion, from Charleston,
arrived at Pier 29, North River, last night,
having on board twenty-three Ku-Kiux pris?
oners. Among them were gray-haired men
and beardless boys; strong men and cripples.
They were under a guard of United States
soldiers, and on thel: way to the Albany Peni?
tentiary to serve out a term ol' Imprisonment.
All ot them proiessed to be farmers or farm
workmen, and their sunburned faces and
hardened hands gave proof ot lt.
The terms of imprisonment are: three for
ten years, and $1000 fine; elx, eight years and
$100 fine; two, lour years and $100 floe; one,
four years and $500 floe; three, three years
and $100 tine; four, iwo years and $100 flue;
three, a year and a half and $100 fine; and
one, one year and $10 fine.
All of these men lived In York County, S.
C., one of the nine counties In which martial
law was declared last October. Some ot them
have already been Imprisoned for monihs.
STOWED A WAT BETWEEN DECES.
A reporter went on board the Champion,
and found the prisoners stowed away between
decks in the fore part of the ship. No air cir?
culated through the place, and the thermomo
ter indicated ninety-eight degrees. They are
rough-looking men, haggard and tattered, but
have not a vicious look. Tne reporter's ques?
tions were promptly answered, and, by many
of the men, with much intelligence. Tney said
they had been arrested "for belonging to the
order." A gray-haired man told the lollowlng
story :
When martial law was declared last October,
no outrages had been commii ted for a year,
and none since, In our county at least. Rut
the military authorities have been making ar?
rests for the past eiuht mon1 hs. The prisoners
are taken before Judge Rond, in the United
Stales Circuit Court, aud the charges are alike
i all cases. They are accused ol' being, or
having been, members of the Eu-Klux, and
are told that i bia can be proven by members
of the tan' who are witnesses tor the prosecu?
tion, and advised to plead guilty lo mitigate
their punishment.
Knowing how useless resistance ls, the
poor wretches plead guilty to avoid a severer
penalty. Tnus, twenty-two ol'these men are
suffering the penalties of convicts through
fear, and not from any evidence of ihelr
crime. One man of lluy years approached
the reporter and said vehemently :
UNFORTUNATELY AJ? AMERICAN CITIZEN.
"I did not plead guilty. I sm not guilty,
and I would not make such a confession tor
the world. They tried rae on two charges,
but no evidence was addnced to convict me.
Yet lt was meant that I should be punished,
and they gave me two yearp. Two years for
belog an American citizen unfortunate enough
to live In South Carolina ! I am not, nor ever
was, a Ku-KJux, whatever that may be. and
have alwu\ s teen a peaceable, law-abiding
citizen. I go to prison an innocent man, but
the hardest criminal never lefi his prison with
a worse heart than I shall leave mine. Il mv
life ls spared, thi* indignity shall be avenged."
The men complained bitterly of being sent
North tor confinement. They thought il bad
enough to be summarily arrested by soldiers,
Illegally i ried, and unjustly convicted, without
being taken so lar i rom home, aud where their
friends cannot visit them.
RELEASED BY DE ATO.
They are to remain in prison until the flues
are paid. Some ol them are without money,
or friends that have means, and they see no
limit to their incarceration.
The reporter said to one;
"How will you pay your fine ?"
"By death," was the answer.
He was a cripple, pale and emaciated, and
evidently rapidly filling away through the
ravages of a hidden disease. Death no doubt
will pay his floe, and cheat the prison of a
tenant.
At seven o'clock the men were put. Into a
street oar and taken to the Grand Central de?
pot, and they embarked for Albany on the
eight o'clock train.

Tney got off weil, with the Couper slightly
ahead and tue Quaker City second. They then
kept to lhat pos,lion throughout ihe race, ihe
Couper crew passing the stake boat one and a
half lengths ahead, time 9.6; Quaker City
f?cond, lime 9.08; Nassau third, time 9.11;
Princeton io ort n, time 9.1G. The heat was
flue throughout. There were, not three
lengths difference between the last and the
winning boat.
Second Heat.-The entries were the Nep
lune. Vesper and Gullck. They got off la
tine style, but aller about twelve strokes B.
B. Buley broke his oar and had to Plop. Tne
other two kept on their course, the Vesper
lending three lengths. Unfortunately for ihe
Neptune, they .scored last, and kept pulling
from me middle io the shore, giving the Ves?
per every advantage, and which they took,
Hod passed me score In 9 minutes end 3 se?
conds, ihe Neptune coming lu in 9 minutes
25J seconds.
Tne Couper crew being Ihe winners of the
first heat, and the Vesper ot the second, they
shot away, and before reaching the head of
the Island the Vespers were about a length
ahead, with the Savannah boys hugging ihe
shore and pulling away at forty-live strokes
per minute. Alter getting a half a mlle from
the stake boat the Vesper fouled the Coupera,
while attempting io pull across their
bow, getting eutaugleri. On reaching ihe
turn Blake boat the Couper boys claimed
a foul, which was given with the race. Time :
Vesper, 9 minutes 53j seconds ; Couper, 10
mi lillies :i5?i seconds.
The conclusion ot the day's sport was a race
of three miles and a half to stake boat and re?
turn, betweeu six oar barges. There were
three entries us follows : The Oneida, of Jer- !
sey Cliy; Crescent Club, of Philadelphia; Mal?
ta Club, ot Philadelphia. This was the finest
race ol the day ; from the start all ihe boals
kepi together, ihe Crescent sllghily ahead.
The Crescent turned ihe stake boat In fine
style, but with the crew of t he Oneida there
appeared to be some trouble as io which stake
boat ot the three ihey should turn ; however,
they gol around alter losing much valuable
lime, which, of course, the Crescent rejected.
On the reiurn the Oneida shipped her rudder,
which materially Interfered with her chances
of winning. Time of Crescent 20 minutes 45
seconds ; Oneida, 21 minutes 45 seconds ; Mal?
ta. 21 minutes 42 seconds. Thus ended ihe
first day'o sport.
Following upon the above came a congratu-1
latory dispatch to the Couper Club:
"Tile Vesper congratul?tes, the Couper on
the glorious victory of their crew over the
seven bebt amateur citlbs ol the country."
Cheers arose from the boys, who could
hardly believe that so much good fortune had
attended the Savannah crew. The victory Is
doubly glorious and gratifying In view of the
many disadvantages under which the Coupers
have labored. That a crew trained for a mlle
race could In ten days prepare lor a three
mile comest, and go through lt as victors over
the best fours ot me North, ls indeed remark?
able, and reflects the highest credit upon the
gentlemen who compose lt. The latter pulled
at the lollowiug weights, which show that they
trained hard after leaving here: Hal Schlev,
160; G. G. Kimball, 150; George Schley, 149;
James Schley, 137, being an average of nearly
148.

?WASHINGTON, June 14.
The Indications are almost positive, from
special and regular sources and semi-official
reports here, that the Washington treaty has
failed. The British ministry have declined at
present to answer to a question in Parliament
as to whether the Geneva arbitration ls a fiz?

which Emperor William, ot Germany, was
made the arbitrator.
LONDON, Jone 14.

Gregory gave notice that he should question
tne government as to the effect that the post?

when a trial was commenced, which resulted
in a verdict for the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad.
The attorneys o? the Central Railroad and
Banking Company, Messrs. Juckson, Lawton
& Bassmger, moved for a new trial, which
was granted, but the case was again con?
tinued? On Monday a motion to non-suit the
cause was beard "but not granted, and the
trial was proceeded with. The action was
brought for the recovery ol the value ol a cer?
tain "lot ol railroad Iron belonging to the At?
lantic and Gulf Railroad Company, which was
seized by tue Confederate Government, during
the war, In possession of tne Central Railroad
Company. The jury found a verdict in favor
of the Atlantic and Gult Railroad Company,

Vigilance Of Two Governments.
WASHINGTON*, Jabe 14.
The captain of the revenue cutler North?
ener reports his chase after the alleged Cuban
filibuster Fannie, to the treasury department.
Other reports Irom custom officers contain no
evidence of filibustering Intentions; but It
appears that lt was considered a matter of
necessary caution to keep sight of her, and,
accordingly, on the night of ine 7th lost., the
Northerner, sighting the Fannie, kept astern
chase for some time and found, also, a tug in
In her wake, which, upon being overhauled,
was found to contain a detective who was In
the employ ot ibe Spanish consul at New
York. The master or the lug was foriified
with documents In Spanish, designated to pro?
tect bim Irom Spanish men-of-war, if over?
hauled by any of them. Late In the evening,
however, the sea becoming rough, the tug was
compelled to seek shelter. Tho Northerner
continued in pursuit of the Fannie, extin?
guishing lights; and at a later'hour tbe Fannie
did the same, and waa lost sight of-she being
ot the time seventy-five miles southeast of
Cape Henry and about thirty-five miles from
the nearest land. The Northerner cruised ali
