o'clock last evening seven young ladies

lurtiug in the water, one Of them, named
Mary Powers, an interesting young lady OF

stretched out her arms and caught one OF

Who in turn seized hold Of her two sisters,

WASHINGTON, July Is, 1868.
The weather continues go progressively
hot. and the pressure Of visitors has been
80 great, that the President has not been
able to prepare his veto message on the
southern electoral vote. 1t is probable that
it may not be cent to Congress until Satur-
day next. The message will not likely be
lengthy, but it will be one of the ablest
state papers probably that has eminated
from the present Executive.
The Senate, after two hours' discus
sion this afternoon, confirmed the nomina-
ton of Mr.. Evarts to be Attorney-General
by a vote of 90 ayes to 7 noes.
Among those who are included in the bill
passed to-day in the House to remove po-
litical disabilities are three Confederate
soldiers who stood guard at Andersonville
prison.
There was delegation Of fifteen Missis-
sippians before the Committee Of Recon-
struction to-day, who urged the rejection Of
the vote of six counties of their State at the
late election so az to make certain the adop-
ton of the Constitution md the success of the
Radical candidates voted for. Three of the
counties complained against had majority
of negro votes. Afidavits were presented
to the committee setting forth terrible
state of society in these counties. The COM
mittee has the matter under Amusement.

Moral INFLUENCE OF FARMIEG.-There
is q decided moral tendency in the direct
and close dealing, if we may SO speak, be-
tween the farmer and his God. They work
together. God has ground this realm $50
biologists tell us) into somewhat hard and
thin soil. " He has sent the springs into
the valleys, which run among the hills, and
caused the grass TO grow for the cattle, and
herb for the service of man." These gifts
are in the rough. The condition of their
true enjoyment is useful and health giving
labor. The gold must be gathered or mined,
the diamond polished so the soil must be
patiently wrought and duly enriched the
tree, the clay, the stone, converted into
dwellings the air and sunshine into corn
and wine. Theannual covering Of the sheep,
and the life garment of the kline, into blank
cts and sandals. In short, labor and reward
are inscribed on every gift Of God, and
none SO generally receive them right from
the giver as those who till the ground.
There is less Intervention of Varlolold
scrip and poisonous nickels. The vine
holds cut its clusters, the rich purple, all
undisturbed. The apple, the pear, the
peach, bend their branches to the gather
ing, az only God can make them. The har-
vest field mods to the reaper that it may be-
come sheaves in his bosom and bread TO the
hungry. The broad bosom of the meadow
undulates and throbs with every breeze I'M
til shorn of its trophies. Even the forest
toss their giant branches for shelter and
for shade. Is there not sense Of great
nearness to God amidst these blessings
A feeling of satisfaction and comfort closely
allied to thanksgiving, praise, and love p

TREATY WITH CHIEA.-The Government
on Saturday concluded treaty with the
Chinese Embassy, which was formally
communicated to the Senate on Tuesday.
1t is based on the idea of opening China to
general trade, and of bringing her into the
family of civilized nations. This, Of
course, is simply treaty with the United
States, but the Embassy intend making one
entirely similar in character with four or
FIVE leading European Powers. The Chi
nese, on their part, throw their ports open
to trade, as other nations do, and agree to
abolish most of their restrictive regula-
tons. They also agree to open their rivers
to navigation of foreign vessels to certain
extent. They will invite citizens of other
countries to reside in their cities and towns,
will protect them in their rights, person,
and property, allow them to trade and
engage in business. They do not propose
to give foreigners a share in their govern
mental affairs, but will guarantee them all
privileges Of neutrals. They are also de-
sirous of entering into reciprocal terms for
the importation of some articles Of natural
growth. We, on our part, are to protect
Chinese who choose to settle in this country,
and after time give them the privilege of
naturalization. We also grant them some
advantages for trade, especially on the
western coast. We further, with other
great Powers, will aid the Chinese to pro-
tect themselves against aggression. This is
a provision intended to prevent any one
Power from exercising undue influence
upon Chinese affairs without the consent of
other treaty Powers.-Forney.

TROUBLE Observation-Disclosures COL
LIsloH OF THE kUKLUX AND THE NEGROES.
Trouble is anticipated shortly between the
Kuklux and the negroes at Columbia. Some
of the latter have warned the kuklux that
they will resist to the last any encroach-
ments upon them, and that when they start
they will start with bullet and torch, and
sweep everything in their way. There is
considerable excitement at Columbia IN
consequence of this unexpected demonstra-
ton by the blacks, and fears are enter
tanned that bloodshed may follow.
The Radicals of Shelbyville, where the
Kuklux appeared in force on the night Of
the 4th Of July, have armed themselves,
and threaten, if the Kuklux again make
their appearance, to shoot them from their
saddles. A Shelbyville man who arrived
in this city yesterday states that he had
been advised by Radical friend, who was
a brother Mason, to leave Shelbyville at
once, as the Radicals had "spotted " him
as a member of the Kuklux Khan. Unless
better counsels prevail, the Kuklux will
again be in Shelbyville tonight in force,
and if the Radicals carry out their threats
the result will be fearful.-NashuiHe Ban
