HENRY sTANBERAY.

A Washington correspondent Of q
Western paper thus describes the United
States Attorney General; Henry Stan.
berry, whom the Senate declined to raise
to the Supreme Bench, is a man who
seems to have the respect of his strongest
political foes, and the good will of all
with whom he comes in contact Tall,
very spare, dressed in the Soberest black,
his crane.like neck inclosed in black
stock, with a long profile and broader
face than you expect, the Attorney Gen
eral is the most unique and old fashioned
of gentlemen. Seeing him, you must
think of times a hundred years gone, or
of men who figure in the delightful ex-
aggerations Of Dickens. he looks out
at you with gentle blue eyes, and speaks
TO you in a tone OF rarest courtesy. He
is not wanting in force or decision, but
there is nothing aggressive or revolu-
tionary in anything he says or does he
may believe Congress wrong in its judy
meut and its action respecting the
political situation, but the President will
not thwart the execution of the military
law or any other duly enacted law, if he
follows the advice Of his legal counselor.

THE NOON DISPATCHES
FROM NEW YORK.


New YoRK, April 24.-The election o.
Senatorial delegates TO the constitutional
Convention resulted in the choice of Is
Democrats and one Republican, the lat
ter having only 10 majority. Thirty
two delegates at large were elected
throughout the State, Of whom l6 were
of each party: Albany, Democratic
majority, 1000; Poughkeepsie, Republi.
can, 665; Syracuse, Republican, 800
Rochester, Republican, 300; Utica,
Democratic, 1870; Oneida county, OF
which Utica is the county town, Repub-
lican, 1000; Buffalo, Democratic
1900 = less than thirty.6ve hundred
votes, or about one-tbird the full vote.
There is about the same proportion
throughout the State-the vote probably
not exceeding 100000. The Republicans
will doubtless elect majority for the
Convention. Returns from Brooklyn
indicate the election of all the Democratic
candidates. Henry Ward Beecher was
defeated by IA majority. The totalvot
of Kings county was l9,348, less than a
half of that of last year.
Mexican papers say that Macmillan
attempted to retreat from Queretaro, his
general officers only accompanying him,
but had to return, the road being oecu.
pied by Liberals, 1t is further reported
that Marquis Quiraza and Vidauri had
escaped seward.
The messenger 10 Juarez, to intereede
in behalf of Macmillan, it is said, would
land at Tampico.
Venezuelan adyices say that Congress
had opened. The subject of American
claims against Venezuela would be dis
cussed and amicably arranged. Blanco,
President of the Senate, said the restora-
ton of Colombia to its former limits, by
annexing Ecuador, was impossible, and
that New Grenada was the natural rival
of Venezuela.
Jamaica papers state that decree was
issued by the HaYtien Revolutionary
Committee banishihg Jefrard and his
family, and Ministers, and Diminishing all
officers who did not take an active part
in the revolution. Salavave has been
elected President, and would war against
St. Domingo, President Gabrial being a
bitter enemy.
Swayne, Bureau Commissioner Of AL
ALBANIA, has amended the apprentice laws,
repealed the vagrant laws and abolished
the changing.
A negro named Nash was elected Com.
missioner of Plymouth, North Carolina.
As part of his policy, he declares that
he viii oppose the arming of negroes,
fearing that they might shoot a negro
accidentally, instead Of white man.
The Tribune says the New York State
Convention will stand 81 Republicans
against 63 Democrats.

HITTING TIE NAIL on TIE HEAD.

Governor Or said in his recent speech
before the Charleston Board of Trade ;
when the emissary comes here from
the State Of New York, Massachusetts,, or
Ohio, and says TO the black man we
are your friends we are going TO take
care Of you vote with u.s. these
white people cannot be trusted l
want our colored men to say to these
emissaries, to the Massachusetts men,
that in South Carolina, under this
law, it matters not by whom it was
passed, every colored man, twenty-one
years Of age, is entitled to his ballot, and
that he would not be allowed TO vote in
Massachusetts,, unless be could read and
write. Say to the emissary Of Ohio who
comes here for the purpose Of giving
advice as to how you shall vote, 90 back
to Ohio, and enlighten the heather there,
before you come here, because no black
man there is entitled to vote. Within
the last three weeks, New Jersey, Ohio
and Michigan, have resolved that the
black man shall not vote under any cir
cumstancss whatever"

BITTER WAR.

A bitter war is going on between two
Chicago papers, the Times and Republic
can. The lie is flung from mouth to
mouth with great rapidly. OF the Re
publican, the Times says: The Chicago
Republican is one of the most remarka.
BILE cases of newspaper failure that we
have ever known. Not less than a
quarter Of million dollars have been
sunk in the attempt to bring it up to
paying point, and never, for single
week, has it paid expenses. 1t is losing
now from FIVE hundred to a thousand
dollars per week, and is declining in
circulation daily. A casual observer
would say that it has some show of ad'
vertising patronage, but this is decep-
tive appearance, inasmuch as large
part OF its advertisements are either
bogus (see its wants" personal, etc.,
or copied from the other city journals
and reproduced gratuitously. The con-
Germ is sham in all other things, as it
in this matter of advertisements.

sINGuLAR CnHnucT.

The Springfield Republican says I:
During the entire winter young Meth
Odist preacher, who went to Salisbury,
New Hampshire, as a minister, but after
a few Sabbsths had the church closed
against him, has coolly taken his stand
each Sunday on the steps of the meeting
house and gone through the regular
services, with no soul near to cheer him,
or lend a sympathetic ear. Amid the
driving sleet and snow and whistling
winds, with uncovered head, he might
have been seen instructing, praying,
preaching, singing, aud pronouncing the
blessing upon the empty air. He is
always cheerful and hopeful, but DO
expostulation or persuasion can turn
him from what he considers the path of
his duty.

FRANCE AND PRUSSIA.

The quarrel between France and
Prussia is having a damaging effect on
commerce. In this country it is great
est, as we are passing through the en-
bers Of great and ruinous contest
Any event that deranges our industry
now struggling to achieve order, is most
unfortunate. The history of a contro-
versy that may produce war aud com
mercial ruin, cannot be uninteresting
to the people. The Chicago Times has
a short, but comprehensive statement
It says the true history Of the Luxem.
burg affair has finally come to u.s. 1t is
q country about equally populated with
Germans and Frenchnen, or, properly,
with a people who are a little Of both
ard not much ofeither. Geographically,
II is not large enough to make respect
able duchy, aud might be, in location, q
part Of France or a part Of Germany.
Hitherto the country Of Luxemburg has
belonged 10 the E0ticerefH, but under the
new regime, it was expected 10 join the
North German confederation. None Of
the people wished TO put themselves
under the rule Of Prussia and Bismarck
While they appreciated ADD Wished Il

Foney's Chronicle, of Sunday, says
when the Senate adjourned last night,
the impression seemed to be almost uni
versal that there would be no quorum in
either House on the Sd Of July next
The feeling between the Senators and the
Executive was so comparatively cordial,
and intelligence from the South promis-
ing submission to the terms Of recon
struction so suspicious, that very few
doubted that the great measures Of the
Government had anticipated and fore
closed all chance of difficulty and dis
sension."

CURIOUS AFFAIR.

A curious affair is reported from Gin
cinnat. At the burning of q large dis
tillery in that city on Friday last, i'm
mense quantities Of whisky ran into the
Ohio river near the supply pipes of the
water works The result Of this is that
the Cincinnati papers Of Monday and
Tuesday report that the water distrib-
uted through the city from the reservoir
