NEW YORK, May 9.-The Herald's
New Orleans special announces the
failure of the City Bank, a private con.
Germ. Liverpool and New York houses
are mainly affected. The Cause is said
to be the decline in cotton.
The Times Knoxville, Tennessee
special says: The Knoxville ConVen,
ton instructed its delegates to support
Gen. Cooper for Congress.
The race in the Convention between
General Cooper and Maynard will be
close.
Col. John Baxter opened the cam.
paign in East Tennessee for Etheridge
yesterday. The meeting was very
large.
The Times Washington special says:
The President has informed ex-Mayor
Monroe and others that he has directed
General Sheridan not to close the reg
tstry In New Orleans until the opinion
of the Attorney.G General on the disfran-
chising clause Is answered. Monroe
expresses his opinion that this will
keep the registry open until September.
Mr.. Cummings has resigned the posi-
ton OF Governor of Colorado, for the
AssessOrship of the Fourth Pennsyl-
vania District.
A. c. Hunt will probably be appoint
ed Governor of Colorado.
The Tribune's special says: From Of
fetal Information, received here to-day,
1t appears that Gen. Sickles has been
in consultation with the officers Of the
banks within his district, and has had
under consideration the feasibility and
propriety of issuing an order for regu-
lating the banking interest in the Sec
ond military district, for the purpose
of enforcing uniform rate of interest.
The Secretary of the Treasury to whom
this communication was submitted,
does not approve of the project, and II
will doubtless be abandoned by Gen.
eral Sickles.

FareIEn New,

New YORK, May 9.-The Herald's
special, dated London, May Sth, says:
The first session OF the Peace Congress,
afler its organization in this city yes
terday, was not merely formal meet
ing of the great powers representa-
tives, but one at which the Luxembourg
question was discussed with desire TO
bring the difficulty between France and
Prussia to speedy close.
The names of the plenipOtentiaries
are: England, Lord Stanley, President;
France, Prince De LaTour Dauvergne;
Prussia, Count Rernstrotf; Austria,
Count AppOinyer; Russia, Baron,
BrunnOW; Italy, Marquis Dazillo; Lux
emburg. Baron Detornaco; Belgium; NJ.
Van DeMyer; Netherlands, Baron Ben
tinell.
The proceedings are to be kept secret
till the close Of the Congress. This
much, however, is known, that France
Is willing to accept the neutrality of
Luxemburg and the dismantling and
erasing of the Fortress, SO that 1t may
not remain as menace.
Prussia is not disposed to consent to
this unless all the great powers now
represented in the Congress give guar
antee of the settlement. The giving of
this guarantee would bind them to en-
gage In war against the future designs
of either France or Prussia seeking ag-
grandizement in this direction. Eng
land hesitates to give such a guarantee
and favOrs the idea of the people of
Luxembourg for annexation to Belgium.
The session was adjourned to Thurs
day to enable the representatives to
have telegraphic communication with
their respective governments. Mean
time pending the issue of the debates of
the peace congress to grant war, prepar-
atoms are going on on both sides, not
withstanding official denial to the con-
trary. France is buying arms both in
England and Spain, and the PrussiAn
troops of the regular army are being
held in readiness to support the garri-
son in Luxembourg.
A Herald special dated Berlin, May
Sth, says:
Count Bismarck, in conversation on
the aspect Of affairs on Tuesday, de-
clared that the situatian Is now more
secure than ever before.
Russia is looking out for her chances
of aggrandiZement in the east and Po-
land, by the opportunity of general
war. Muskets are being converted into
breach-lOaders for all the Russian
army.
The general opinion on the continent
Is that Sthe maintenance of peace de-
ponds on the action of the London Con-
ference. Fears are entertained that the
failure of the representatives there as
sembled, may bring on a general
European war, in which each country,
caring little for tho Luxembourg ques-
ton, or the future position OF the
people OF the grade duchy, will
forward its own particular designs
by force of arms.

Tho Picnic, the News and IT,"
While prostratcd with disease, q
critiquc upon the report made by the
News of t., Picnic of the Sd instant,
appeared il this paper. A friend
called our attention to it, and wo sent
to the { fec for q copy Of the paper
containing it.
We were surprised to sec what nm
unfair view had been taken by ssL" of
the brief report We made of that Pic
mic.
The English language is made to
little purpose, if Ell" can really say
That "pcrsons who did not attend, will
"of course form their opinion by what
Swas said, and that opinion must be
"that the whole affair was a failure"
when we stated that "ovcry thing ,ocnt
OF vc'y successfully"
We said "neary all the pieces wcrc
"ropcatcd in Il low tone of voicc,n and
when we selected cone child from
"among SO many" VIC made no COM
parison at all.
We have no apology to make for
the brief report, because VIC gave no
offence from intention.
We thought the critiquo of 81" so
un-callcd for, that VIC did not enquire
who ''L" is +; nor do VIC intend to know
who it is, if VIC can help it. We have
made special request of those who
had charge Of the Office during our
sickness, in which time Ell" appeared,
that they will not tell us the name Of
tho correspondent.
We did appreciate ''thc sweetness
"and artlcssncss of the children" but
still we did not hear what ovcry ono
said.
We hope "L," and all who think VIC
reported "tho whole affair was q fail
're," will read again tho report made
Of the Picnic in the News of the 9Th
inst. If desired, wc will rcpublish
it.
We may add that our feeble health
prevented our getting fuller report
Of the whole affair.

The Wheat Prospect.

From all parts of our District says
the Spartanburg Spartan, We have
flattcring prospects Of a good wheat
crop. Yet, VIC hear Of rust already
affecting a portion ola large field near
our town. We arc sorry to hear this,
as tho wheat is only now heading out,
but with favorable seasons, it is hoped
that this vegetable disease will not be-
come epidemic. Without somo disas-
ter, The yield will be larger than usu-
al. Our farmers inform us that they
have good stand of corn and the cot
ton is generally up, but tho late cold
weather. has much retarded its growth.
Our people, however, arc hard at
work, as might havo been inferred
from the comparatively small number
of our farmer friends who were here
on last solcsday. Gardens, though q
littlo late, give promise Of abundant
and healthfnl vegetables. We OBJ
soryo that many of our town people
are engaged, more or less, in tho cul-
tivation of farms, and most of them
give promise Of remuneration. Even
