4 RISING " TERHEY.

A Cable dispatch states that a rising against
the Turkish Government has taken place both
IN Servia and Bulgaria. The reputation of the
Cable dispatches for veracity is not very good,
and we must, therefore, wait for confirmation
of the above reports. If true, the Intelligence
would he of the greatest Importance. Scrvla
and Bulgaria are the two most important
Sclavic provinces of European Turkey and
simultaneous rising in both would indicate
general Sclavic movement I'm both provinces
rising has long been prepared. The Bulgarians
are dissatisfied because the Turks have not
made TO them the same concessions which have
been made TO most of the other tribes OF
the Empire The Prince Of Scrva had recently
prevailed upon the Porte to grant To him the
same amount Of independence which for some
time has been enjoyed by the Prince OF Rou-
mania. But though this demand was granted,
the agitation in Servia continued. The Prince,
il was reported, aspred at All administrative
union with Servia of Bosnia. Croatia and all the
other Slavic provinces of Turkey save Bulgaria.
This was, of course, refused in CoDstantinople,
and the Scrvans. therefore, we're only waiting
for an opportune moment To seize by force
what they could not obtain by negotiations.
The latest information from Crete fully con
firms tho total defeat of the forces of Omar
Pasha Nearly the whole island is in the hands

confidence of the Turks in their ability to sub

and that they are not disinclined To accept the
advice of the Great Powers, and consent TO

The Hon. Thomas j. Durant, though Gen.
Sheridan requested the Withdrawal of his
resignation, has absolutely declined the Gov
ernOIship of Louisiana. We are sorry, for
Mr.. Durmt is so closely identified with Louis
lana that his influence as the chief officer Of
the State would have been unreasonable for
good. He, more than any other, perhaps has
the power TO anchor the Southwest forever
on the side of freedom. But as Mr.. Durant
cannot accept the position, we are glad that it
has been offered to the Hon. b. +. Flanders.
His record is without stain. his patriotism has
been fully proved, and we infer from the
satisfaction bis appointment gives to the loyal
men Of Louisiana, that those who know him
best have as much confidence in his ability as
in his integrity.

TILE CR1N SLATE TRIDE.


In the last olnme of the Slavc-trade
Papers annually presented 10 the British
Parliament, we find report from the
English Commissioner at Havana, contain
ing statements If very reassuring char
acter as to the ely extinction of the traffic in
human beings wch Spain TO her disgrace be
it said, has been he last Power in the civilized
world to reinqun. The report is accompanied
with an inclOsurgiving the number of slaves
reported TO have,een landed in Cuba from De-
tobcr l. 1865, to;eptcmbcr 80, 1866, from which
it appears that to caIg0es OF Africans, num-
beIiug in all AIS Ouls, were during that period
captured on the 'uban coast, both belonging
TO the same owns; and that the captlIc # one
of these, numbeng 215, was effected by the
Spanish gmboatNeptuno. Another car9 OF
600 is known to hive evadcd the ylgllano OF
the cruisers, and have been landed III Cha,
although the fft is denied by the iu-
thortics. These three cargoes give ttal
of ,443 Africans transported from Alllc to
the Island of Cub for twelve months. Posi-
bly, other carg0es ave landed, OF which METER

come to the pleasing conclusion that the Tras-
atlantic slave-trale to Cuba Is on the ev@f
extinction. Such at least, is the opinionf
the English Commissioner himself, who ss
that "altOgether there is fair reason for SUI
"posing that th Cuban slayetrade is almt
virtually at an md" This reason, he thin,
is To be found not only in the apparent
honest determination of the Spanish GoyeI
ment and the present Captain-General To cat
out the laws for tie suppression of the trat
but in the stat. G public feeling among !
Cubans, which is very different from what
was few years ago. 1t is indeed, higl
gratifying to lean from so respectable soul
that the importation of more slaves into Gu
is earnestly deprecated by the more enligt
encd of the Clbans, and that they are ea
nestly turning their attention to the probld
possible disturbance of social ORDER and u
least possible injury to the general interests
the country.
Ii il plain that the end of Slavery in ID
Spanish Colonies draweth nigh. This nes

That recent events in this country all have
the effect of fastening a contamination for
which the friends of freedom the world over
have long hoped almost against hope, cannot
be doubted While Slavery existed in the
United States. Spain and Brazil found conn

of negro slaves in the South as the trumpet
note of joyful delvcrance, fell upon the ears
of shareholders and slavctraders everywhere

them wealth and power. Evidently the begin

IL would be interesting to know how mich
corn is planted during these pleasant June dys.
Owing to the protracted wet weather large
part of the corn-fields Of the North havere-
manned implanted. But now, through a recon
a thousand miles long and three hundred brad,
from daylight till dusk, the farmer imprUes
the favorable hours TO plant corn. WHATEVER
the amount may be, it is certainly larger han
ever was planted before. With the incentives OF
high prices, real scarcity of grain, andth
growing season before us, we may coniidatH
expect yield fully mp to the average. :
While the weather was so mfayorable for
corn planting, it was highly favorable for heat.
During those wet, cold weeks the wheat bant
grew very slowly, and, in protecting itsef, it
sent out new shoots which now, through all
the fields, are rising to sight and adding .
stand which, by reason of the Winter SLOWS,
was already good. This addition will add
much to the crop. Had the season been wrm,
the plant would have grown rapidly, and een
deprived of this increase. Hence, one sees hat
naturally cold climate, giving slow growth,
and having tendency.tO create self-proect-
ing sod. must in a series of years yield more
wealth than warm, rapidly maturing clinite.
Thousands of sharp observers are nGing
these facts, for millions of dollars depend pon
them The prospect of bOuntiful harvess il
having powerful effect on the market, andwe
are noting heavy declines. Other articles of
food are also declining. These may be coISd-
cred as sure signs of a speedy revival of tr1iie.

The inquiry made into the administration of
Gen. Sheridan, especially of his removal of
Monroe, Abel, Heron, and Wells, evidently
means that these just acts have given some
body offen.e Hints of his removal are cur
rent, but we forbear to regard them as any
thing worse than hints. The Government
should pause before it ventures foolhardily to
threaten the removal of such commander
as Gen. Sheridan, from that least prudential of
reasons, because being patriot, he is also a
Radical The examples of Monroe, Abel, and
Heron have been instructing him in the science
of government, and he has acquired his lesson
from the Presidents own dictated copy. Gen.
Sheridan is now as radical as all loyal Louisi-
ana in fact. His removal would bca shameful
attack upon loyalty, and one that the country
would not hear of without indignant protest.

THE PRESIDENTS TRIP.

The President and his party are expected to
return to Washington tomorrow and We do
not rejoice thereat, for in the brief journey 10
Raleigh Mr.. Johnson and Mr.. Seward deserve
credit, not blame. Their temperate and timely
speeches must have had good effect
and are in singular contrast to
those made on the Presidential trip through
the North West True, Mr.. johnson could not
entirely escape criticism of the photographed
portions of his address at Raleigh, but when
we consider the prOvOcatiOn he has had, we can
not too highly commend his abstinence from cen
sure of Congress, and thepOlicy of reconstruction
Since his previous speeches. he has bad bis
vetoes thrust aside, has seen the validity o.
the laws he so bitterly opposed recognized b5
the Supreme Court, and in two of the five
Military Districts has beheld the strict
and uncompromising execution Of tLg
Reconstruction acts by the Generals IN
command. To him this triumph in which 80
many rejoice, could not have been welcome
He cannot read the papers, receive official re
ports, or travel without meeting evidence OF his
unpopuarity and of the utter failure of hb
plans, and his visit to the South must hav
awakened feelings as bitter as thOS
Lee or Johnston would feel shOuli
they be escorted by Grant or Sherman over te
battle-felds where the Rebellion was defeated.
Yet Mr.. Johnson betrayed no feelings of ~
sentiment in any of his brief speeches, butconfind
himself to the expression of general wishes.
which we cheerfully accept as sincere, fOr tie
perfect union of all the States, and the recOi-
Citation of all classes. Mr.. Seward was equally
moderate in what little he said publicly. We
rejoice in this apparent change Of feeling. ad
if Mr.. johnson had continued his trip through
out the South in this spirit, it would hye
been very beneficial
