Mr.. Anthony made a report from the
Committee on Printing against printing
additional copies of the report OF Com
missioner of Agriculture, but providing
one thousand copies of those hitherto
ordered, be furnished that officer in or
der to meet the demand upon him.
Mr.. Chandler said the Senate had been
remarkably liberal towards nominees,
and as an instance of how they express
ed their gratitude he caused to be read q
newspaper article. The clerk read it in
substance: ''That a complimentary SER
enade was on Thursday night rendered
to John W. Frazier, recently confirmed
as Assessor of Internal Revenue for the
LIST District of Pennsylvania; this gen.
tleman is reported to have said in ac-
knowledging the honor, that a number
of his Radical friends had invited him
to return TO the fold, which he declined
TO do; he did not feel under any Obliga-
tions to the Senate for he was appoint
ed to fill a vacancy; politically he was
still conservative, in favor of johnson,
Grant and the Supreme Court, in con-
tradistinction to Sumner, Stevens and
Butler. BE was against the Radical ele-
ment trampling the Constitution under
foot, and the injury of currency, etc.
Sumner did not do as was expected, to
call up his resolution for the expulsion
of Mr.. salisbury.

WAsRINGToS, April 5.-General
Sheridan has not yet sent a report to
the President of the causes that in
duced him to remove Messrs. Heron,
Monroe and Abel, at New Orleans, nor
has he asked any instructions about
his action under the reconstruction act,
as has been alleged by newspaper cor
respondents. The Secretary of War
to-day laid before the President a copy
of correspondence between General
Sheridan and General Grant, respec-
lively, of the I'd and Sd instant.
General Sheridan says that General
Griffin, of Texas, recommends the de-
position or removal of Governor
Chrockmorton, of that State; that he
(Sheridan) agrees with Griffin. Sheri-
dan thinks he will have to remove
the Governor of Louisiana. He
futher says he will commence
the work of registration as soon as he
received a certified copy of the law; that
he (Sheridan) feels himself equal to the
task imposed upon him by the law, and
will perform his work with credit to the
military. General Sheridan concludes
by saying: 81 shall make but few re-
.movals." General Grant replies that it
would not be proper to remove Gov
errors; that the subject is now under
consideration, and it is not believed that
military commanders have the power,
and removals can only be made by act
of Congress, or by trial, under the sixth
section of the law.
The testimony taken before the Jul
dietary Committee a few days ago,
upon General Buffers charge against
the President that certain deserters
from the army were pardoned by Mr..
johnson to enable them to vote in West
Virginia last October, completely re-
flutes the allegations made by Butler.
Surgeon Melvin and others who had
anything to do with the Transaction
have been examined and the evidence
corroborates my dispatch on the sub
jeet a few days ago. -

search, had found the individual named

Earl of Clanricarde, one of the wealthiest
and most influential nobemen in Scot.

is almost marvellous in its details, and
would furnish the materials for first
class three-volume novel. Some forty
years since, the poor old man. who has
attracted the compassion of our citizens
was dashing and stylish officer in the
Life Guards; becoming enamored OF a
beautiful girl of humble origin, he mar
ried her in opposition TO the commands
of his proud father and remonstrances of
his equally proud elder brother. Being
disinherited and thrown upon the world,
he sold his commission, and with his
wife came to this country. After five
years of vcjssitudes upon rugged farm
in the western wilds his wife died, and,
broken in spirit and sore in heart, he
relinauished his claim and roamed with.
out aim or purpose over the country.
During the Mexican war he enlisted as a
private soldier, and served until the
close of hostilities. Since then he has
been the companion of rowing Indians /;
a deck hand on steamboats,; a peddler,
ETC., until his arrival in this city. By
the death of his older brother, which
occurred about four months since, he has
become the possessor of estates to the
value of three thousand pounds per
annum. His good fortune, alas has
come too late; PROSTATE in mind and
enfeebled in body, he cannot realize,
nor can he long enjoy the princely for

BosTON. July 10. 1867.
DEAR SIR: | am honored by your in
vitation to attend the anti.slavery con-
ference at Paris ia August | fully
recognize the importance of that consul
tation, and we're able it would be both
a clear duty and a great pleasure to be
with you.
But, in the present condition of the
class lately emancipated here | could
not consent to leave the United States.
They are still suffering cruel oppression.
In some parts of the country they are
yet practically slaves; in other sections
they enjoy only partial freedom, and
in all they hold their rights by very
feeble and uncertain tenure. Their per
sons are safe only under the shelter of
the national cannon. Emancipated in
defiance of their masters, they live IN
land of enemies; their safety and rights
are dependent wholly on Federal author
ity, and that is welded by a President
who seeks to defeat the purpose of the
nation and check the results OF the war.
10 spite, therefore, of the evident pur-
pose Of the nation itself to rest its gov
ernment henceforth on the cornerstone
OF justice, the condition of the negro is
very critical He has received the title

estate itself

that to leave the United States at such
an hour, even TO attend your conference,
