ADMIRAL SEMMEs' SwoRD.-It Will
be remembered by some readers that .
number of English officers and noble
men gave Admiral Semmes to under
stand, shortly after his affair with the
Kearsage, that they intended to give
him a sword. The sword has not ar
rived, but the editor of the Mobile
Register and AdvHttSer has seen Il
photograph of it, and to him we arc
indebted for the following description:
The blade bears suitable inscription,
and is oraamented in the highest style
of the sword-maker's art. The scab-
bard, which is of gold, as is also the
hilt, o n t least the guard, is orna-
mentec, not profusely, but most taste
fully, with devices cmblematic of tie
naval profession and of Southern agri
culture.

New YoRx, September ls.-European dates

tain some very interesting details Of our cable
reports to that day.
Russian journals, published in Moscow and
ST. Petersburg, give simultaneous expression
to the opinion that Europe Is on the eve OF
another great war convulslon in consequence
Of complications already existing and likely
to be evolved in the southeast. It's intimated
that Russia may wish to be compensated for
the heavy blows which have been inflicted on
her interests in the Baltic during the last few
years.
The Exeter Hall Radicals of England made
q very excited and serious demonstration In
London In denunciation Of Ex-Governor Eyre
and his rule In Jamaica during the late negro
revolt. The abolitionists burned Governor
Eyre In efigy, crying out that they wished
they could do the same in the flesh, with all
his aristoeratic supporters-men who never
earned two pence In their lives.
The London He,1s, an Exeter Hall organ,
warns President johnson Of the danger which
may ensue from the conflict between the
Executive and Congress of the United States.

Correspondence OF the New York Times.
LAFAYETTE, IED., September l1.-There
is comparatively little interest taken in the
struggle for the State offices. The ticket
nominated on February % is by far stronger
than the Democratic ticket, and this may
secure the election Of the Republican can
didates for State officers, although this is
by no means certain, and at all events the
majority will he an insignificant one.
The principal interest centres in the tre-
mendouS congressional struggle now taking
place, and here the advantage is decidedly
with the National Union party.
The Radicals will hardly elect more than
four out OF the eleven Representatives. The
first four districts are conceded to their
Conservative opponents, and the Fifth,
Sixth, Ninth, and Eleventh districts are
conceded to the Radicals. In the remaining
three districts thc Seventh, Eighth, and
Tcnth) both parties are straining every
nerve to secure victory, but the tide is
against the Radicals, and they will certainly
lose two of them, if not all three.

THE SOUTHERN RELIEF FuND-THE DOL
LAR SUBSCRIPTION MISUNDERSTANDING
to the report Of the lady managers of the
Southern Relief Association, the amount
of poverty and want, and consequent dis
tress and suffering in the South, is still al
most beyond the power Of belief. The
report states that although the apportion-
mcnt from the fund for Virginia was much
larger than for any other State, still there
are hundreds of unanswered appeals for
relief now in the hands of the committee,
giving evidence of how many homes yet
remain to be cheered, how many hearts yet
to be lightened of their heavy load Of care"
And what is true of Virginia applies to al
most every southern State In, greater or
LEGS degree. 1t is no wonder, then, that
the gentle-hearted women Of Baltimore and
of MARYLAND are prepared sngain to enter
upon the labor of atiording relief with re-
newed vigor. The ladies Of the, association
make another strong appeslto the generous
public. emarking that while " deeply
grateful for the blessing which has rested
on their undertaking, they are obliged still
further to invoke the generosity which has
already answered their appeals so nobly."'

In the course Of the afternoon there was q
tight rope performance by Mr.. II. Leslie, Of
Baltimore, which attracted great attention,
and was witnessed by President Johnson,
who was accompanied by Colonel Moore
and Mr.. Hogan. They arrived on the
grounds during the performance. The Pre-
Sdcnt was received and escorted from his
carriage by Lieutenant Colonel Won koer-
berg, first assistant marshal, who, with
George A. Springer, took his arm and es-
corted him through the grounds, the peo-
pie cheering at the top Of their voices, and
crowding close upon the party to catch a
glimpse of the distinguished visitor. Warm
expressions of regard greeted him on every
side as he advanced, to which he bowed his
grateful acknowledgements.
