The New Atlantic Cable was damaged ,on
the Sth inst, by an ice berg, which ground
ed off the harbor of Hearts Content, New
Foundland. The old Gable, it will be remem-
pered, was grappled for, raised and repaired
shortly after the Cable Of 1866 was laid !,
which fortunate circumstance prevents the
severance Of the tclegraphic communication
b TWEEN this Continent and the Old World
the capacity of the old Cable being fully
equal to the requirements of the business,
great as it is. The company propose repair
ing the damaged Gable of 1866 without de-

The much spoken of Diary of j. Wilkes
Booth, has just been published The Presi-
dent, apprcciating the great anxiety Of the peo-
pie to see what this Diary contained, obtained
certified copy from Secretary Stanton and
permitted its publication. When summed
up it really amounts to nothing. He ex-
presses no regret for the assassination of
President Lincoln, and says he struck the
blow for his country which owed all it's
troubles TO him, and that for that deed he
should have been greater than Brutus and
Tell. for he struck down greater tyrant
than they ever knew, but that, instead, the
hand ofevery one seemed turned against him.
That he was guilty Of no wrong unless it was
serving degenerate people and afterwards
expresses the opinion that there is no pardon
in Heaven for him since man condemns him
So tits really the silliest thing about which
to have raised such hue and cry that we
have ever read and we get up from it's peru
sal satisfied that the hand that fred the un-
fortunate pistol that laid President Lincoln
low, never penned this certified Diary. We
feel that it could only have been gotten up
for the purpose Of securing the reward for
the capture of the assassin, and that unmean-
ing as it is, it is entitled to no weight what
ever.

Gen. Sickles has issued an order prohibit
ing the distillation Of Whisky in the Second
Military District, on the ground that the
present scarcity Of food in the Carolinas is
greatly diminished by distillation, and there
by food is rendered dearer in localities where

The result Of the Que sided harangues the
people Of the South are burthened with from
Northern Radical orators are producing the
results SO essentially necessary to Radical
existence and hence SO earnestly desired by
them. BY the teachings Of bad and reckless
men we have had negro riots in Richmond,
in New Orleans and lastly in Mobilc-the
latter two of which were occasioned directly
by the inflammatory speeches Of Judge Kel-
ley, Radical Representative in Congress
from Pennsylvania. We some time since
expressed our conviction that return of pos
tive peace would be the death-knell of the
Radical party. Too severely are we real
izmg the truth Of that CONVICTION. Fearing
return of peace from the Reconstruction
plan. the Radicals are using every effort to
thwart such consummation and at the same
time build up a hobby upon which to contin-
ue in power and by the aid of which to make
further onerous exactions from the Southern
people s.
There is but one course left for us to pur-
sue. We must be patient under the taunts
and slurs the perigrinating Radical stump
speakers heap upon us. We should avoid
the gatherings assembled to hear their cal
umnies against us. We should treat our
colored people with that kindness which a
life long sympathy for them prompts, and
which their faithfulness during the late war
demands, uninfuenced by the extraneous ex-
isting circumstances calculated to array the
white and black classes of the South against
each other In fact we should strive to avoid
these disturbances which are SO much desired
by the Radicals, and without which the
speedy dissolution Of that party is certain.
We have witnessed nothing but peace and
amity in this section and community, but we
have had no radical ranters spouting their
lnhammatory harangues to large assemblies
Of whites and blacks here. The above adj
vice might, therefore, seem to some uncaHed
for. The occasion, however, may arise when
it will be needed and those who are fore
warned are generally forearmcd.

manner as might seem to him most judicous
A similar sum was handed Mr.. John S.

ton by him, wherever nc might deem best
These liberal donations, we learn were made
as slight testimonial of the appreciation of
the tourists Of the very great courtesy and
kindness with which they were treated while
amongst US.
Colonel Oweu, we understand, has turned
over the amount placed in his hands to the
Pastors of the various churches in the city,
both white and colored, by whom the fund
will be devoted to the objects designed by
the liberal donors. -Lynchbu'y Ncws

Don Jose Rancirez, son Of Maximilian's
late Secretary of State, left the city of Mexico
on the 18th ult., for Havana. He reports
that when he left, PorGrio Diaz had his bat
teries planted for the siege Of the capital. =
There were nineteen pieces playing on the
Peraloullo gate, and that Of San Cosute was
was being attacked. The only points of de-
ferse that Marquee had were the gates. He
has 1000 men to defend the capital. When
Marquee arrived after his rout, council OF
war was held, at which the ministry were
present. Lacunga, president of the minis
terial council, said that as Maximilian was
defending Queretaro against superior forces,
it was not acting the part of soldiers to sur
render the first city of the nation. The COM
manding officer and other officers, however,
were preparing to capitulate, knowing that
was the only way to save their own lives.
