^tjS Cable Despatenea. LONDON-. Apr? ?5.-^Lerd Stanley anuounoed ia tho House, that Russia bad made proposals to tho Govern? ment regarding Crete, but they could not be made publio without the cou? sent of tho Czar. Advices from Australia state that a Fenian named Farrell, shot Prinoe Alfred iu the back. Tho ball has been' extracted, and Alfred is doing well; but will be sont home. Ifevra Items. i CHARLESTON, April 25.-Arrived schooner B. N. Hawkins, Boston; steamer Maryland, Baltimore. Sail? ed-steamer Saragossa, New York. AUGUSTA, April 25.-Election nc counis are conflicting. WILMINGTON, April 25.-unofficial returns thus far received, leave the result of election still in doubt. The contest. is very close. Returns from tho extreme Western Counties ace anxiously looked for, tis they will de? cido the result. If tho Constitution is ratified, tho returns indicate that tho Legislature will be about equally divided. 8 P. M.-Sufficient returns have been recoived to warrant tho conclu? sion that tho Constitution bas been ratified by a small majority. Hon. N. Boyden is probably the only con? servativo elected to Congress. ALEXANDRIA, VA., April 25.-The Republican County Convention re? commends Hauxhurst for Governor, abd nominated one white and one negro for the Legislature. A split occurred, when nerty half the dele? gation withdrew. The seceders aro composed of about equally whites and blacks. WASHINGTON, April 25.-It is Gen. J. M. Schofield, Commanding the First Military District, whom the President has nominated as Seoretary of War. Regular polls have been opened nt the fashionable gambling houses, where bets are made on all impeach? ment questions, involving the final result. Nelson's apeeoh is univer? sally road and applauded. It is ad? mirable. In tho Senate, tho resolution that tho proceedings of the court in retire? ment be published by the regular re? porters, in tho usual way, was post? poned until Monday. Chase ordered the prosecution to proceed. Stevens being absent, the prosecution asked time. The defence then proceeded. Groesbeck is speaking. Senator Yates writes a letter to the citizens of Illinois, refusing to re? sign, but promises hereafter to do his duty, free from the besetting sin which has dragged him down. Ho claims that his drunkenness has been exaggerated. Gen. Schofield's nomination causes various speculations. First-as an olive branch held ont to conservative Senators; second-a compromise be? tween Johnson and Grant; but the affair is still a State secret. Johnson appears not to havo cousnlted even his cabinet about the nomination. In the impeachment court, Chose said Edmunds' resolution, ordering that tho Senate's deliberations be re? gularly published, was in order. Drake moved indefinite postpone? ment. Sumner said, "that's, the pro? per motion-indefinite postpone? ment." Defeated by 20 to 27. Sum? er Buhmitteda motion, that the vote a tho .several articles proceed at 12 o'clock of the day after tho argument of tho managers and counsel closes. Objection being made, it goos over, under tho rules, to Monday. Sumner proposed two additional rules-first, that Chase shall ask each Senator "how do you vote;" and ho shall re? ply, "guilty," or "not guilty;" and second-that upon conviction, it shall bo the duty of tho presiding officer to order the convict's removal forthwith. Objection beiug made, tho matter goes over to Monday. Several Senators niado points, that theso now issues would como into tho Senate, where interminable de? bate is allowable, postponing Lue re? sult indefinitely. Chase ordered the argument to proceed. The prosecut? ing attorney not responding, Groes? beck commenced, and paid a glowing tribute to tho President's life, charac? ter and services. Fresh Hops, &c. ITHRESH HOPS, YEAST POW ?

WILLIAM MACRAE, General Superintendent. April 23 y y_10 New Principle! New Remedy! ! No Poison!!! THE ONLY FEVER and AGUE REMEDY, free from Arsenic, Quinine, Mercury, Strychnine or other Poison, is the FEVER and AGUE CURE, OR ANTIDOTE TO MALARLA-which will entirely pro? tect any resident traveler, even in tho most sickly or swampy localities, from any Ague or Bilious discaso whatovor. It instantly checks the Ague in persons who have suffered for auy length of time, from one day to twenty years, so that they need never i have another chill, by continuing its use according to directions. The patient at once begins to recover ap? petite and strength, and continues to improve until a permanent nnd radi? cal euro is effected. Tho following certificate, from the most celebrated chemist in the United States, is attached to every bottle: "NEW YORK, June ll, 1855. "I have made a chemical examina? tion of 'Rhodes' Fever and Ague Curo,' or 'Antidoto to Malaria,' and have tested it for arsenic, mercury, quinine and strychnine, but have noi I found a particle of either in it, noi j have I found any substance in it?
