of the people of Luxembourg, and also upor
the consent of Prussia. He strongly
doubted whether the consent of Prussia

were not fulfilled the transaction would fall
to the ground. He returned reply to tha

the official representative of the King o.
the Netherlands that negotiations were al
an end.
Lord Stanley said he had not considered
il necessary on the part of the government
to communicate with Holland and France
on the subject of the Prussian loan of thirty
million thalers, which is to provide a fresh
supply of arms and munitions of war.

San Juan d Ulloa, but norther having set

cut off, and no beef, vegetables, fruit or

Those who have beheld the scenes of de-
vastation and distress which the late over
flow has left, will shudder at the horrible
appearances the subsistence of the waters
has disclosed. Battle-felds have presented
spectaces from which even the bravest
shrink, and narrowing narratives have
been recited of distress amounting almost
to starvation where triumphant armies
have passed, with all the pride and piano.

food, which knew no sympathy, to wind
its resistless currents around high and low,
and hurl them to destruction.
The valleys and the elevated grounds
were all prey to the fierce and relentless
element. Where safety was sought, and
security believed certain, the invader
reached his engulphing arms and swept off
everything. Fortunes we're destroyed even
while sad eyes were turned upon the wreck,
divided now in interest with the instinct
Of self-preseryation. 1t makes us shudder
TO contemplate what has been described to

All along the borders Of the great stream

New YORK, April 16.-The steamer
Scotia, from Liverpool 9th, via Amsterdam
18th, arrived tonight.
The Times, of the 9th, in its city article,
says that Spanish securieties were influenced
by the strong belief expressed by those who
are unable to estimate the present composs
stion of the Spanish government that a
resort to reprisals would ultimately be
found unavoidable.
The tone of the market is such as would,
under ordinary circumstances, indicate the
general conviction that the breaking out of
a war is but the question of few weeks,
but the peculiar state of the public mind,
ever since the panic in May last, will, in
some degree, furnish less serious expla-
nation.
The Daily News, in its city article, says
that, owing to the prospect of a rupture of
the relations with Spain, but few transac-
tons occurred at Lloyd's in war risks on
English ships TO Havana, and lis per cent
was paid yesterday against risk Of Span
ish capture.
A Cadiz telegram states that the Spanish
government has released the Captain of the
Tornado, but that John Mcpherson has
been transferred to the interior of the coun-
try as a CHILEAN prisoner of war
Mcpherson is included in Lord Stanleye
peremptory order.
The British government propose TO ex-
tinguish f26, 10000 OF her national debt
before 1885 by means of terminable annui-
ties.
A Berlin telegram, of the 4th Of April,
says: Intelligence has been received here
from Hague announcing that the Dutch
government had officially informed the
prussian Cabinet that the sale of Luxem-
burg had not vet been effected, and will not
be carried out without the consent of Pras-
STA.
The London Times says il is disgrace
to French statesmen that the Luxembourg
scheme should ever have been entertained.
France will show her Difference for Euro
pean opinion by abandoning this ill-omened
negotiation, which would not only unite all
Germany against her, but break off the
intimate friendshi p which prevails between
her and the other German provinces.
A Paris telegram, of the 9Th, says the
French government has still under consid.

RICHMOND, Va, April 1.-THE Re

the African Church. Geo. Rye, of Shenan
doah, was chosen temporary chairman
Two hundred and ten counties reported

was chosen permanent President. Ten Vice
Presidents, including Hunnicutt, Lewis
Mckenzie, of Alexandria, and three colored
men, were chosen also three Secretaries
one colored.
A white committee on organization was

Democrats came here to spoil the conven-

New York, made infammatory speeches,
the new idea being that the negroes should
demand higher pay-at least four dollars
per month. The convention then adj
