AN ENGLISH ESTIMATE OF PREs

AN ENGLISH ESTIMATE OF PREsI-
DENT JoHNsoN.-The London Spectator
OF May 6 has long article on our new
President, which commences as follows ::
"a very original, very determined, it
may be, very dangerous, but unquestiona-
bly, very powerful man, has succeeded
Abraham Lincoln. The public in this
country has been deceived as much by
the formal uiterance of Mr.. johnson
when accepting the Presidency as by the
accident which threw such ridicule over
his inauguration in the subordinate office.
This is no feeble ruler, sure to be a tool
in the hands Of his secretaries or the
parties around him, any more than it i,
a drunken rough elevated by an accident
and incapable of an idea, but a strong,
self~reliant man, accustomed 10 rule in
revolution, with a policy as distinct a,
that OF the oldest European statesmen,
and a will which, be that policy wise or
rash, will assuredly make resistance to it
a most dangerous task. There is no !
single point in politics which it is so i'm
portant to Engli,hmen to understand as
the character Of the American President
they cannot afford second mistake such
as that committed about Mr.. Lincoln,
and We have passed hours in studying
The speeches aud acts of air. johnson as
Governor of Tennessee. The more WE
have read Tie more strongly has the con-
clusion grown on US that the new Ampri-
can President is one Of the most individu
al men on the continent-a ruler who,
whatever else he may do OF leave undone,
will most sssuredIy rule; who will bor- I
row knowledge, but accept advice only
when 1t harmouizes with bis own precon-
'eiyed convictions" 7

The church was one of the Oldest in

been occupied by the Episcopalians as a

The fire was noticed by many of our

THE WESTERN Country UNDER
WATER.--The Cincinnati Gazette of1lth
inst, remarks:
I'VE have had nearly whole week Of
rain, and since Sunday evening it has no.
merely rained, but poured, almost inces,
sanity. The consequence is the who'll
country is virtually under water. There
are floods in all the rivers aud streams
the bottom lands are OVERLOOKED, and thr
uplands are almost as soft as on the break
ing up of winter. Such weather is quite
unusual at thls period of the season, and
there ia, therefore, m II C b un, a ines
felt in regard TO the crops. Corn ha-
not been planted to any extent, nor j.
the ground prepared for it. The same
is true of potatoes. Where seed has
been put in the ground it is rotlng, and
it will be necessary to replan'. OF course,
there is time yet to plant corn and pnta-
toes, but, with fair weather, it will, under
the most favorable circumstances, re-
quire several weeks to do the work, the
execution OF which ~. rains have pre-
vented. Then it viii require very
good season to make the crops. Dry
weather in June and July would be fatal
The wheat crop thus far looks well, but
the heavy rains are not favorable. The
rank growth which is being obtained
greatly increasing the risks that this
grain has to run between now and bar.

CURIOUS FAcT.-At the recent WOO
growers convention n Syracuse, Mr.
Ten Eyck stated that long wooded sheep
would not thrive when hocked with me
rinoes. He had placed several n q
flock of 1900 merinoes, and the long
woods grew poor and unhealthy, although
the pasture was good. Mr.. e. +. RYAN.
in communication to the Restern Ru-
raj, on coarse wooded sheep, says, in re-
gard TO the mixing of Leicesters with
fine woods in pasture in summer, or in
folds in winter, that the strong. poisonous
scent of the full blood merinoes, impairs
The appetite, enfeebIes the health. and
rauses immediate decay 10 the vitality of
The Leicester sheep. Weigh Leicester
lamb at six months old, and put him in a
clover pasture of abundant feed with
flock Of so or 100 Merinoes, ana keen
bin with them, and be will never gain
i've pounds in weight. Keeping coarse
Tools by themselves is the great secret
or success in raising them to the greatest
profit"

The Arrest of Jeff Davis.

New York, May 81. The Herald,

"All right, madam" said the Corporal

tent door an ostensibly old lady with a
bucket on her arm, escorted by Mrs
Davis and her sister. please let my old

tone. sit strikes me your mother wears

Skins-"and whiskers, too" said the Ser
geant, as he pulled the hood from her
face, and 10 jeff. Davis stood before
them. A pistol was Immediately placed
at his ear, and he was placed 10 durance
vile.
Only about $4,000 in specie was found
with the party, though several boxes
were not searched. They were brought
along, however, and will be delivered to
the authorities at Washington. There
were found on the person of Postmaster
General Reagan papers showing that
large amount OF specie had been shipped
for London, which will also be delivered
to the authorities by Col. Pritchard.
The latter, with the prisoners, immedi-
ately started for Macon. The party were
all sullen, and Davis remarked to Pritch-
ard that had they not been taken by sur,
prise they would not have surrendered
without fight. While on the road they
received copy of the Presidents procla-
nation Offering 100000 reward for
Davis. Davis read it and trembled and
pressed his hands to his side, and with
groan he dropped the paper. His wife
picked it up and read it aloud, when the
entire party burst into tears.
The cayalcade arrived at Macon on
the 18Th, and soon after took a special
train for Atlanta and thence for Augusta.
Stephens and Wheeler were captured
by detachment of Gen. Uplon's division,
and Clay and his lady surrendered to
Gen. Wilson at Macon.

THE New York HERAL D.-A
mighty change has come over the spirit
of this paper. 1t now steps forward to
the very front rank of the advocates of
freedom and iustice-political justice for
the negro. We are glad to lay before
our readers the following just and sensi-
BILE remarks found in an edi drill Of the
Herald of Saturday, May 9Th:
"What we want now is final settle
ment with these disorganizing sectional
factions on the slavery question and the
negro question. The war h a killed
Southern slavery. Let it be buried and
put out of the way as soon as possible
1t ends the slavery agitation. But there
ia yet something left for abolition capital
in the negro agitation. Against his de,
mand that as slavery is abolished, and
that rs the African race have powerfully
assisted US 10 putting down the rebellion
and in saving the life of the nation, they
should have share in the political right
of the ballot-box, what valid objection
can be made ? We cannot long resist
this demand in view Of the extinction OF
slavery and the services Of the Southern
blacks during this war. With every OPP
portunity and in every way they have
been our faithful allies. We have had
100000 Of them in the service of the
army and navy. Their battle of emsn-
cipation, involving four millions of their
race, has turned the scale in their favor,
and We must yield to tn ssgacity OF
President Lincoln's emancipation edicts.
1t is folly to argue against established
facts. We adhere to the lights of expe'
rience and common sense. Hence we
would say again TO President johnson
that he has nothing TO fear in laboring
to give the Southern blacks the right of
srffrage in the reconstruction Of the re-
belious States. Political negro exclu>
sions, looking to the safety of negro slav-
cry, are no longer necessary, slavery be-
ing dead, Above all, we want TO see
not only the slavery question, but the
negro question, as a political hobby, per-
manenlly settled, SO that Northern and
Southern negro agitators may be silenc-
ed, in being deprived of the last parcel
of their stock in trade-negro suffrage
in the reconquered States"

DEATH OF A WEALTHY UNION Man

DEATH OF A WEALTHY UNION MAN
-OPPosITIoN TO UNION MEN.-Ral.
eigh, N. c., May Is. Jas. C. johnson,
one of the wealthiest men in the South,
aged 80 years, died near Edenton on the
18th inst. He disinherited all his rela-
tives because they deserted him Ga Union
MANI and espoused the rebel cause. AT
the outbreak of the rebellion he told his
slaves-numbering near one thousand
the war would free them and they could
90 CT remain. 1t was he who discharged
Henry Clay's Indebtedness of $4,000,
unknown to the latter.
Many of Johnston's paroled men are
under the Impression, by a report Tia
France has recognized the Cunfederacy,
that they can prevent Union men no ding
meetings. A Northern man will not be
safe South after the withdrawal of the
Union troops, unless negroes are used
for garrison duty.
