Foreign W?w?. LONDON july 7.-Dean Stauley, in' his sermon? on the 4th of Joly, deprecated the use of irritating language by those in authority in England or America. The Daily Nexo? says, editorially, the Irish ohuroh bill will leave the House of Lords with a very different character from that with which it entered, and much less acceptable to tho country. It is impossible for the Houso of Gommons to accept the amendments made by the Peers, and it will be their duty to restore the bill to its original form. The Lords have done their best to spoil the measure they prudently abstained from rejecting, and the Gommons must transform the deformed. MADRID, July 7.-In tho Cortos, Figu rea moved severe penalties against those refusing to swear to the Constitution.

La Fi'anoe denies the contemplated evacua? tion of' Homo by the Frenoh. Later despatches from tho Great Eastern says she weathered a heavy gale on Monday. All well *ud signals good 7,521 knots out. CITY or MEXICO, June 27.-Mariscal, Minister to Washington, leaves July 25. A train between Mexico and Yera Cruz ran off the track. Twenty-three per? sons were killed and many hurt. The new Minister has presented his creden? tials to Juarez. Speeches complimentary to the people of both nations were de? livered. The Government is very short of funds, withholds the interest on the internal debt, and has reduced the sala? ries of officials. Washington New?. WASHINGTON, July 7.-Tho Govern? ment is waiting full correspondence, which called forth by Cunby's letter, de? claring that the members of the Vir? ginia Legislature must tako the iron? clad oath. When these are received, tho whole matter will be referred to Hoar for his opinion, when the Cabin et will decido. The impression prevails that tho mem? bers elected will be seated without Fede? ral interference. Grant has arranged his summer excur? sions, so as to be within easy reach of the Capitol, and will at no timo be ab? sout over two weeks. Sickles' instructions contain nothing whatever relative to the purchase of Cuba. The persons best qualinod to speak say the Government is not iu the real estate business just now. The Secretary of the Treasury has di? rected the Assistant Treasurer at New York to pinchase $8,000,000 of United . States bonds on Friday, to be hold sub? ject to the future notion of Congress. Turner, the negro postmaster at Macon, telegraphs to the department that he has taken possesion of the post ofQoo, but the white clerks have left Ho asks instructions. There is some mystery here about Turner's bonds--they are not recorded on the post office books devoted to that purpose. The currency balance in tho Treasury has been reduced $6,000,000 since the 1st of July, by withdrawals for the pur? chase of bonds, and $2,500,000, to-day, for the use of the army. ???>??'

RICHMOND, July 7.-The State, ac? cording to the latest returns brou?lit in, has gone by nearly 40,000 for Walker, and there is a Walker majority of fifty, on joint ballot, in the Legislature. Tho Walker people elect all the Congressmen J except three, who aro Platte, Porter and Norton, (colored.) This complete disas? ter to Hie Wells' ticket results from first, the unreliability of tho negro vote, which in the country districts has gone largely for Walker; aud second, because of tho failure of their calculations in some of the Counties bordering on Ten? nessee and North Carolina, where tho white votes for that ticket were ohiefly expected. In that quarter, tho Counties that were expected to givo him 500 ma? jority, went against him by 1,000. The Walker State Executive Committee tele? graphed President Grnnt this morning, ' congratulating him on the triumph of his polioy iu Virginia, and thanking him for his liberality.

The cemetery is now under the exolu siye control of the Memorial Association, composed of the surviving Confederate soldiers, and efforts are making to raise fund., to erect a handsome monument over the dead, and to remove those who fell at Sharpsburg (Antietam) to this ce? metery. Persons who may wish to learn any? thing about Confederate graves at this place or Sharpsburg, or who may wish to contribute their mite to the "Monument Fund," will have their letters promptly answered by addressing JOSEPH McMURRAN, Shepherdstown, Jeffeit?on County, Vir? ginia.

THE BURIAL OF THE BOOTH REMAINS A STORM AnouT REV. FLEMING JAMES. - The Rev. Fleming James, lato of St. Luke's Hospital, New York, has given great offence to his Northern friends by officiating at tho re-interment of the re? main* of John Wilkes and other mem? bers of tho Booth family, at Green? mount Cemetery, Baltimore, a week ago. Mr. James has felt himself obliged to resign from tho hospital in consequence of the hostile sentiment evoked by his act. In a professedly Christian hospital wo might expect to look for Christian cha? rity. But those who 2ontrol the above institution seem incapable of such a vir? tue, even to the dead. Who ever before heard of a clergyman being punished for performing Christian burial for tho greatest of criminals? We had supposed that New York was civilized and cosmo? politan.-Ballimore Sun. < ? ? Herr Lengel announces to his many friends in Columbia that ho will posi? tively enter the den of lions at tho night performance of tho Circus. SALE OF A WIFE.-Wo learn that a few days since a white man, a fisherman, re? siding on tho Ogeecheo Canal, some ten or twelve miles from the city, sold his wife to another fisherman, also white, for sixty bunches of fish, valued at fifty cents per bunch. The wife was perfectly satisfied with the salo, and is nov living with her purchaser. For the information of Messrs. Forney and Greeley, we will stats all tho parties to this transaction are said to be "trooly loil" voters of tho radical ticket.-Savannah Republican. Tho procession of Ames' Circus, to? day, will surpass anything of the kind ever seen in Columbia. Mr. Burton, of Waterford, N. Y., who built the "Independent," of Columbia, has recently built another for the Good? will Company of Harrisonburg, Pa., which threw solid water, through a \% inch nozzle, 326 feet, and through a lj? inch nozzle 303 feet. In both instances the spray from tho stream went at least 30 feet beyond these distances. --? The Hon. John Townsend has mado arrangements to employ a number of Chinamen on his plantations on John's Island. General Mead? at Gettysburg. ? stately monument bas been erected on the flj??d of Gettysburg to commemorate the great victory which the so-called army of the Union and tho Constitu? tion, under General Meade, late disunion and unconstitutional satrap iu Georgia, won from the Southern army of inde? pendence under General Lee. At the inauguration of this monument, General Meade delivered a brief address. He opened his speech by contrasting the different scenes of 1868 and 1869. He then explained how he had consented to make a speotacle of himself on eaoh suc? ceeding anniversary of the battle, at the request of the- managers of the show. He dropped a sincere tear or two over his fallen fellow-generals, and insisted that they died to defend tho Governmeut of our forefathers. He did not say that, thus dying, they had died for a fiction. On the contrary, he really seemed to think that the battle of Gettysburg and Georgo Meade had saved the republic just as it existed in tho days of Jofferson aud Buchanan. Sublimely impressed with on iden of this character-at which even the Now York Herald and Imperial? ist never cease guffawing-Gen. Meade squeezed his briny handkerchief ovei tho wreck, the ruin and tho fatality ol war, and, for the moment, forgetful ol tho Columbus prisoners, he wont into ? perfect sweat-box of pathos. At thu point, ho deemed it convenient to iuter pointe a delicate personal allusion to hil distinguished self. Thus: "At the sam o time, I feel gratitudi and joy; gratitude to the Almighty, whe directed the event, and who selected m< as an bumble iustrumeut, with thos? then around me upon this field, to ob tain that decisive victory which turnet tho tide of that great ?rar, aud settle* forever, I trust, in this country, tb principles of personal liberty aud con stitutional freedom." [Applause. | That little hint about decisive victor; "which turned tho tide," etc., will b charming reading for the President-Gen eral, and coming, as it does, immediate! upon tho heels of Andrew Johnson's tel rifle onslaught, must moko Grant doubl his rations of cigars and juleps. But whit amusing reading the last clause of tbi paragraph will bo for Edman Spangle] to sundry people of Texas, to some pee plo in Georgia, and to the publio gem rally of the teu Southern States. If th dead hear, what a commotion there wi be in tho spiritual world at this awft mockery. Why tho shade of Mrs. Sn: rat on the land and the wraith of < wei fel in tho deep ought to torment tl: slumbers of our late satrap for daring i his vanity to assume that he, sweat-bc Meade, had "settled forever the princ pies of personnl liberty and const itutioi al freedom." What arrogance! Whi egotism! What hypocrisy! After such n huge plaster to his bull pride aud self-esteem, no wonder ho ht compassion on the half-buried Confed rates. Certain of his remarks on th theme are honorable to him, and we gi him due credit in the premises. Tal this specimen, for instance: "There is one subject, my friend which I will mention now, and on tl spot, where my attention has been call to it, and iu which I trust my feet voice will have some influence. Wu I contemplate this field, I see here ai there, marked with hastily-dug trench? tho graves in which the doad with whe wo fought are gathered. They aro t works of my brothers in arms the d after tho battle. Above them a bit plank indicates simply that these i maims of the fallen foo were hurriec laid there by the soldiers who met th< in battle. Why should we not colic thom in some suitable place? I do r ask that a monument be erected o\ them. I do not ask that wo should any way endorse their cause or th conduct, or entertain other thau feelii of condemnation for their course. I thoy aro dead-they have gone bef< their Maker to bo judged. In all ci> ized countries it is usago to bury i dead with decency aud respect; and e\ to fallen enemies respectful burial is corded in death." Wo say theso sentiments aro honora to Gen. Meade, though the Governor which ho thinks he saved must bear I stigma of barbarism for neglecting to what "all civilized countries" have ways dono. It happened that one of Generals present on tho occasion, t whom ho complimented in high terms now Governor of Pennsylvania. A : months ngo, some charitably-dispo persons proposed to give decent in meut to such of the Confederate dent reposed in abai ?ow trenches on the ? ol Antietam. The better to do this was agreed that they should admit bodies into tho Untan Cemetery at 1 place. No sooner did Gov. Geary L of this thau ho sent a rabid dentin tion of it, which amounted to posi prohibition so far as Pennsylvania concerned. No doubt Geary yielded fountains of his crocodile tears w Meade expatiated upon this subject, methinks we can seo him splitting kid-gloves as ho joined in the "applat that followed theso sentiments. Gou. Meade would have dono well ho stopped at the point wo have i catcd iu tho quotation. But that I rou nd of "applause" stimulated bin overdo the matter. Thus: "I earnestly hope this suggestion have some influence throughout broad lund; for this is only ono arno hundred crowded battle-fields. S persons may be designated by tho vernmont, if nocessary, to collect t neglected bones and bury them witl commemorative monuments; but sit indicato that below sloop tho misgn men who fell in battle for a causo which wo triumphed." That our Southern people have derelict in tho matter of burying I dead heroes, wo must admit. Bu pray God that the dead, if not the ing, tv.ay be spared a practical il 1 n tion of General Meade's sugges True, he does not want a monuu but he proposes nu inscription. 1 mu?t be a raouument of some kind, in order to bave the inscription carved upon it. Think of the Federal Govern? ment tenderly gathering np the remains of our fallen Confederate braves, and then rearing a hage column over them, bearing some such epitaph as this: Beneath this shaft Repose Five Thousand 1 Bebel soldiers, Who died in the unholy attempt To sever the Union Of the States, And Destroy the Constitution of our Fathers. Gen. Meade and the Grand Army Of the Republic The Saviours of the Federation; The Redeemers of the Land Of Washington; The Conservators of Negro Freedom And Destroyers of White Supremacy Have erected this monolith To perpetuate the Recollection Of the Union Triumph And Rebel Defeat. Let Gilmore Bhont, while Boston anvils ring Sweet land of liberty, of theo wo sing. Let Northmen shout, whilo living rebels groan; Wo'ro niado their martyn infamous in stone. We have borne rn-ny insults; we have endured many wrongs. Is it reserved for Gen. Meado to be the inventor of n new sweat-bos to torturo our very souls? [A ugusia Constitutionalist. Prof. G. W. Johnson's performing elephant, Bismarck, will stand on his head to-day at tho Circus. SICKLES' DEPARTURE AND HIS INSTRUC? TIONS.-Thc Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Gazette, writing under date of of 2d instant, says: Tho pnblic will see, by tho "sudden" departure of Minister Sickles to Ma? drid, that the Sumner faction has just as suddenly triumphed in the Cabinet. Had the administration been decided upon its policy before the day before yesterday, this extraordinary haste would not have been necessary. The anuexation of Cuba by purchase may now be consi? dered certain if tho Spanish Govern? ment, notwithstanding the remon? strances of England and France, can be induced to sell at any price. This is the phase I have all along predicted this ex? traordinary affair would assume. What Mr. Secretary Fish will esteem it his duty to do, under the circumstances, has not transpired. He seems yet, how? ever, to be wonderfully dazzled with the imaginary honors of Minister of Foreign Affairs of the great republic. Whatever may becomo of this Cuban imbroglio, one thing is manifest, and that is that the leaders in this country of the "Cuban cause" have been villainous? ly sold by this double-dealing adminis? tration, whether we succeed in buying the island of tho Spanish authorities or not. lu nay settlement of the question between Spain and the United States, the owners of the bonds issued by the revolutionary government must "be left out in the cold." Besides, it is out of the question that a single dollar ad? vanced by them to newspapers iu the radical interest, which have since "gone back" upon them, will be returned. It is even behoved that a majority of them will, with brazen impudence, deny the genuineness of their own receipts for the money. Wile Codons gives a drum solo, the manual of arms and tho skipping-rope waltz, during her performance on tho tight rope nt tho Circus. The cholera is said to have made its appearance in Hudson City, opposite New York, and there is no little excite? ment there in consequence. Quite a number of persons aro ill, but it is not ascertained that any deaths havo oc? curred. While tho Fourth of July was being celebrated, on Saturday, nt Des Moines, Iowa, an anvil nsed as a caunon exploded and killed two men and a team of horses, sud seriously injured several persons, two of them fatally. Joseph Bates was instantly killed by lightning last Monday afternoon, near Elizabeth, Wirt County, West Virginia, whilo taking refuge from tho storm under a sycamore tree. David Partin, a young mau, killed Stiles Montgomery, aged nineteen years, near Rome, Georgia, ou the 5th. Captain Joe Kinslow, with his silver voiced cornet, leads tho Circus band. Auotion Sales.
