THZ SULTAN OF TUCKEY AT LON?
DON.-The reception of tho Snltau at
Loudon was a grand affair. A cabio
despatch of tho 12th says:
He was received by the Prince of
Wales, acting for tho Queen, and by
his Majesty Ismael, the Sovereign of
Egypt, and was by them escorted to
tho city of London, where he met an
unusually brilliant and imposing re?
ception.
The streets through which he pass?
ed were covered with flags aud
streamers, and spanned by nichos
and festoons of flowers.
Tho entire route of the procession,
from the railroad depot to Bucking?
ham Palace, was guarded on both
sides by unbroken Hues of troops;
behind, vast crowds were packed in
solid mass on tho side-walks, and
crowded every window and house
top. When the Sultan, accompanied
by tho King of Egypt aud tho Prince
of Wales, passed between the lines
of soldiers, the people manifested
great enthusiasm, and tho shouts of
welcome, cheering, and waving of
handkerchiefs and banuers didn't
cease till tho Sultan had entered tho
gates of tho palace. The royal resi?
dence had been placed in a state of
complete preparation for tho Sultan,
and will bo occupied by him during
his stay in London.
TUE CONVOCATION AT ROME.-Tho

SOUTHERN GENERALS.-Wo take
the following from the New York
Times:
We feel impelled to say a word
in behalf of tho military skill, the
valor and ability of certain of the
rebel generals whom tho Southern
papers are now denouncing for in?
competence and imbecility in the
field. Since Jeff. Thompson, Chal?
mers, Hindman, and especially Long?
street, have come out in favor of re?
construction nuder the military bill,
we find that their services to tho re?
bellion aro spoken of with utter con?
tempt, and Longstreet is said to have
proved himself a "failure'* aud a
"nobody" throughout tho outire
war. Now, we are quite certain tltfit
Longstreet, at least, was not rated in
this way by any of our Generals ol?
by our soldiers who fought him. It
was conceded by them all that, with
th? exception of Stonewall Juckson,
Lee had no subordinate, and the
Confederacy no upholder, who ten?
dered more efficient and signal mili?
tary service than Longstreet. We
need not recall tho long list of terii
blo battles iu which ho and his corps
figured, nor the hundred times in
which ho put to test the genius of
our greatest commanders. We aro
sure that noither Grant, Hancock,
Sheridan nor Warren would speak of
Longstreet, as a soldier, in any such
way as ho is now spoken of by his
unreconstructed fellow-citizens of tho
South. Butin daring to exerciso his
own judgment upon politics, ho
could expect nothing better than ho
is receiving nt the hands of tho
Sou thorn "bomb-proofs."
A letter from Wiesbaden gives some
details of a singular calamity that has
befallen that town. A few evenings
since, a water-spofit, greater than
those of 1810 and 1832, broke over
tho place, causing incalculable da-1
mage. Tho Kursaal had been all but
destroyed. Enormous stones and
articles of furnituro woro carried
along the streets by tho torront,
which in ono placo made a channel
for itself nearly six metres deep.
Three houses aro said to have fallon
and tho celebrated Neroberg vine be?
longing to tho Duke of Noy an is to?
tally ruined. Two women and throo
chiidren aro reported to havo pe?
rished. lu tho evening, tho mud and
tho dead fish-several carp had been at
an earlier hour caught in tho Placo du
Theatre-oxhalod so bad an odor that
an epidemic ia feared. Some persons
say that they felt the shock of an
earthquake.

From Washington. I
The special correspondent of the
Baltimore Sim says:
At the serenades here last night to
Congressmen, Mr. Colfax said that
Congress had desired to avoid a mid?
summer session, bnt that the Presi?
dent having vetoed his vetoes by the
promulgation of a decision of his
Attorney-General, that under the re?
construction laws tho military com?
manders were merely policemen,
subordinate to tho provisional go?
vernments, the army was but a posse
comitatiis to'enforce the decrees of the
rebel governors and mayors in the
South, the people again appealed to
Congress, and hence the recent legisla?
tion. He thought that throughout Con?
gress had struck the golden mean, and
that its legislation was firm, prudent
and wise. He could not but admire
the last bold and defiant veto mes?
sage of the President, but he thought
Mr. Johnson arraigned himself in it
moro thnu he did Congress, for all
agree that ho spoko correctly iu his
North Carolina proclamation of May,
1865, when ho declared that all tho
civil governmeuts of tho South had
beon destroyed by the rebellion.
"The President," ho said, "appeals
to the ballot-box, aud so do wo, and
by its decision are williug to stand or
fall." In conclusion, ho spoke very
confidently of victory before tho peo?
ple iu 1868, aud declared that it
would be swelled by the vole of the
reconstructed South.
Senator Yates said that the South
having accepted the situation, the
Republican party had now to accept
the situation, which, he said, was
that no rebel shall occupy a placo in
the administration of our national
affairs. Tho speaker did uot hesitate
to say that a greater rebel than Jeff.
Davis or Beauregard is to-day shel?
tered in the walls of the White House.
Being a Senator, bc could not say
the President ought tobe impeached,
but would say that there was suffi?
cient evideuco in possession of the
House Judiciary Committee to justify
impeachment.
The Republican party must accept
the situation iu (.another respect.
There has been a war iu Mexico.
Maximilian has been executed, and
tho Democratic party is expressing
its disapprobation of thc act. The
Republicans should stand by Juarez
and the Liberal Government. It is
the duty of our Government to de?
clare that no foreigu prince or poten?
tate shall establish a government ou
American soil. If necessary-, let war
bo declared against any country that
attempts to supplant liberty in Amo
rica.
The Republicau party has declared
that equal suffrage shall exist in the
District of Columbia and tho South?
ern States. Now they must do for
the North us they have done for tho
South, and impose suffrage upon
every State.

RETOESENTATIOX FROM THE REBEL
STATES.-Mr. Masou, the Democratic
candidate for Governor of Iowa, in
an able letter, says:
But tho right of a rebel State to
representation is no longer an open
question. It has long been settled
by tho acquiescence of the very men
who now, for purposes of their own,
most vehemently deny such right.
Tho State of Virginia was represent?
ed in the Senate of the United States
throughout thc war. Not Western
Virginia only, but old Virginia, the
back-bone of the rebellion, the fore?
most among all tho revolted States
in furnishing men uud money unel
generals for the war; anil yet at the
very time when her Lees aud her
Johnstons, her Jacksons and her
Stuarts, her Ewells and her Mosbys,
were braving and often elefeating our
armies in the field, invading the loyal
States, placing the capital of thc na?
tion in jeopardy, ouel causing our
chief officials to keep au oyo to the
means of their own escape-while all
this, I say, was being done, there sat
John S. Carlisle in the Senate cham?
ber, the representative of that same
Virginia, voting, consulting, elebat
ing-tho peer of tho Sumners and
Wades of that hotly, with his seat
just as uuquestioncel as theirs-until
tho end of his term of office, in
March, 1S65, when the war was vir?
tually at an end. It is not now too
late, with any show of consistency, to
raise the question of tho right of
representation, now that thc war is
over, now that tho rebellion is effect?
ually crushed, now that not a hostile
gun has boon fired, nor a hostile arm
raised, for moro than two years; now
that Virginia is as peaceful as Ohio,
and South Carolina os "loyal" as
Massachusetts, and as little likely to
engage in rebellion against tho Fede?
ral Government; nov that throughout
tho length auel breadth of tho South
there goes up oue general anti fervent
wish for tho return of peace, and or?
der, and fraternity, and union. Tho
men who have seized upon tho abso?
luto control of the Government at
Washington, aro tho only obstacles
to tho immediate aelvent of returning
peaco, and union, auel prosperity.
Sister Fanny Jordon died at St.
Joseph's Sisterhood, near Emmetts
burg, Maryland, recently, in her
eighty-fifth year. Sho was ono of tue
original banel with Mrs. Seaton at the
organization of tho order in this
country, anel the last survivor of tho
founders. Ten years ago, her semi?
centennial anniversary as a Sister of
Charity was celebrated, being tho

member of the community.
SINGUT?AB DISCOVERY.-TU6 Wash
ingkm Evening Union, of Monday,
has a lengthy communication from
Thoa. C. Baffinson, Fellow of the Boy?
al Society of North Antiquaries, Co?
penhagen, giving a description of a
discovery made by him recently of a
Bunio inscription on a rook near
Georgetown, which, translated, reads
as follows :
..Here rests Syasy, or Susau, the
fair-haired, a person from the East
of Iceland, the widow of Kjoldr, and
sister of Thogr, children of the same
father, twenty-five years of age. May
God make glad her soul. 1051."
Upon digging in the earth at the
foot of the rock, a few human teeth
aud a bone, which crumbled, upon
beiug expoaod to the air, two Roman
coius, and threo bronze trinkets wore
found.
Above the Runic inscription the
name of "W. Langley, 1758," is
carved. Mr. Raffiusou considers tho
discovery of these things as unques?
tionable proof of the Icelandic voya?
gers to this continent, but it is still
moro remarkable, as continuing a
statement made in au auciont manu?
script, which was dug out of tho ruins
of tho ancient college at Skalholt,
iu Iceland, in which it is affirmed
thut, uuder the command of Her
bardur, bis countryman sailed iu a
Southern direction from Vineland,
(or Martha's Vineyard,) where they
wintered, aud thence up a sea and
various rivers, thc ascent in one of
which was stopped by :i succession
of falls, to which, from their shapo
and foamy appoaraucc, they gavo
the narnu of Hvidsderk, or white
shirt; and the MS. further states that
in this neighborhood the illegitimate
daughter of Suorri was killed by a
small spear (or arrow) and buried
uenr the spot where she fell.
It was the reading of this narrativo
which lcd Mr. Raffiusou to exploro
the country* around these falls, and
his labors havo been abundantly re?
warded-if he has not been hoaxed.
PROGRESS OF LIBERIA.-Tho ac?
counts received from Liberia aro
uniformly favorable as regards the
condition nod prospects of the Afri
can republic. Agriculture is still tho
leading interest, and the facility
with which largo crops of sugar,
rice, coffee, ?fcc, are raised and put
iuto market, gives promiso of an im?
portant dcvelopmeut. Oue of tho
largest planters raised cauo enough
last year to make 400,000 pounds of
sugar, 5,000 gallons of molasses and
2,000 gallons of syrup. As wealth
increases, mercantile enterprise be?
comes more extended, tho manufac?
ture of sugar is conducted on a moro
liboral scale, and tho principal towns
boast of better specimens of archi?
tecture. Ten years ago, there were
only two sugar farms on the banks of
the St. Paul River; now thore aro
more than 100.
ARE GREENR.VCKS LIABLE TO TAXA?
TION?-This question has bceu
brought up iu a Cincinnati court, by
Farau sud McLeau, of that city, who
havo applied to Judge Storer for an
injunction to restrain tho Auditor
and Treasurer of Hamilton County
from collecting a tax charged against
them on 831,000 held by them in
United States legal tender currency.
Tho plaintiffs assume that, by tho
statute, no State, County or national
tax eau be charged on Government
issues, whether bonds, Treasury
notes, or other evidences of debt.
To test tho question, thc judge grout?
ed a provisional injunction, with leave
to the defendants to show cause why
the order should not bo mado abso?
lute.
The New Orleans Times protests
with great earnestness against tho
popular idea that New Orleans is
sickly. It bases its argument upon
official figures. Siuco the 1st of Ja?
nuary, 2,387 persons have died in tho
city. Of theso, 728 were children
uuder one year of ago. Of tho 310
deaths from consumption, probably
tho greater number wero cases of per?
sons coming to the city ns a last at?
tempt for life. Tho eutiro number
of fatal cases of fevers was ouly 143.
Considering the fact that tho city has
bceu crowded with freedmen, o death
rate of ono in 19,000 is certainly uot
very large.
The Boston Traveller states that a
lady in Beading, Mass., while con?
versing with some callers, suddenly
turned palo, and, sinkiug into a
chair, exclaimed, "Did you hear that
gun? it affected mo strangely," aud
wept inconsolably. Her visitors had
heard no report, and it afterward
appeared that no gun had beeu fired
at that time on the place. News
came, however, that her brother, re?
siding 100 miles away, was at that
very hour fatally shot by tho acci?
dental discharge of his fowling-piece,
while hunting in a grove nour his
house.
Much attention is now being paid,
in tho interior of Louisiana, to the
propagation of a new grass, called
tho Hungarian, whioh yields two tons
to tho acre on bottom lands. If so,
and it equals timothy, and it is a sure
crop, it is far better than cotton. Let
cotton go to Egypt and Brazil, so we
raiso our own stock, grow our own
fond, and mako just enough of tho
cotton, or other such crops, to reap
tho fair and average por centago of
fanning profit. Then, aud not till
theil, will we got rich.
Euarjsrumr OF NEG KOKS TO BTT AS
JUBOBS AND HOLD OFFICE.-A bill has
finally passod both branches of Con
gress, in effect giving the negroes of
this District the right to hold ofll <
sit as jurors, and, in short, putting
them upon a perfect equality in all
respects with other citizens. Although
the bill has received the saotion of
Congress, it is not yet a law, and may
not become one yet, if at all.

A Texas correspondent says that

North-west in cheap, rich lands, and
all the advantages of tho South in a
genial climate. Many million acros
aro now to be had at fifty cents to

The reports of the crops from Iro
Iand are extremely promising. Hay
is an abundant yield. Tho potatoes

be in many districts the single defi?
cient crop. Wheat looks well, but
thero is not much ground under it.
Tho cotton crop, which did not, for
a while, promise much, has como out
very encouragingly; and the prospect
is that there will bo a good crop of
