From AbyssInin.

AsHAUGHI, Abyssinia, March lG, via
LONDON, April 1.-The advance brigade
of the British army, under Napier, arrived
at this point on the march towards May
dala to-day. The difficulties of the expe-
dictionary undertaking increase as we pro-
coed. The country, for the most part, is
barren and impossible; the roads very bad
and difficult TO travel. The natives are
hostile to the British. An Abyssinian
chief, who is encamped on the high table
land near the troops, refuses to give food to
the army on any terms. This chief dares
Gen. Napier to injure him. He sent a
message to Gen. Napier saying that King
Theodorus offers him meeting. Another
chief, who is friendly, tells Gen. Napier
not to believe this assertion of the hostile
chief. No forage can be had for the cattle.
The people say that the bad chiefs have
already ruined the country, and that King
Theodorus despoils the country far and
wide. The desolation is universal. Gen.
Napier's headquarters force is six days
march from the fortress of Magdala.

THE EDGEFIELD AND KESTUCKY
RAILROAD

BY publication a few days since in
one Of the city papers, it was made ap-
parent that for some reason, there had
occurred distractions to the eOnsolida~
ton, so greatly to be desired, of the
Edgefield and Kentucky aud Evansville,
Henderson and Nashville Railroad Cons
panies. We are not informed particu-
larly of the causes which have led to this
result, but think the expectation of those
who feel an interest in the early con-
struction of the line through to the Ohio
river has been disappointed in the failure
of the stockholders of the Edgefeld and
Kentucky road, at their meeting a few
days since, to make the consolidation
feasible by placing Gen Boyle in their
Directory with the view of making him
President Of the two roads Certainly
they have not promoted their individual
interests or forwarded the general in
terest and prospects of the great enter
prise of building a railroad to the coal
mines and to the Ohio river. If we are
not mistaken, they nave jeOpardized all
their interest as stockholders, and before
two years have passed will probably have
lost all their stock. As the law stands,
if the Edgefeld and Kentucky Company
does not pay the utmost on its debt to
the State, the road must, within the next
year, be sold. 1t is almost certain, under
this state of the case, the road will be
sold and all the stock of all the stock
holders be sacrificed Under the plan
we have understood Gen. Boyle to indi-
cate, considerable per cent of their
stock might have been saved to the stock
holders. We hope that something in
this direction may yet be accomplished
An apprehension exists that the action
Of the Edgefeld and Kentucky Railroad
Company referred to, will seriously affect
the unity Of the two roads, but this is a
mistaken view The Edgefeld and Ken
lucky Railroad Company is a corpora
ton in allegiance, and has no power over
the road, and cannot regain power over
it without first paying all the interest ac-
crued and to accrue on the debt owing
to the State This appears to be impossi-
BILE within the time given by the railroad
act The road must inevitably become
one with the Evansville and Henderson
road in the event Of its sale and pur-
chase The action of the Directory in
failing promptly to place the road in
the most favorable attitude for achieving
an advantageous consolidation, we re-
repeat, was an error, but it will not pre-
vent the result, sooner or later.
The road from this point to Henderson,
Of which the Edgefeld and Kentucky
road will be portion, will assuredly be
built, and that speedily. We believe that
the placing of the energetic President of
| the Henderson road at the head of the
Edgefeld Company, would have facili-
tated its extrication from the embarrass"
ments now surrounding it, and ensured
an earlier fusion into one line, and largely
promoted the public interests.

costing the government 81 574 per
bushel, when corn can be had anywhere in
this market at ST II per bushel. There
is no need TO point out the fat pickings OF
the government contractors in the differ
ence Of price between the corn and meal /;
besides, corn is sold at fifty-six pounds to
the bushel, and meal is delivered to the
Bureau at the rate of fifty pounds to the
bushel. Can it be wondered at that the
officers, az General Grant says, are all
against the President, when such rich
speculations abound in the drawers OF the
Bureau, in the way of stealings, in all sec
tions of the South where that national
curse exists p
An Omaha paper thus depicts the va
grant gangs of carpet-baggers that are
prowling through the South:
"You find them eyerywhere-on the
cars, and in the towns, and providing about
in country places; and you can't take up
paper, hardly, or hear a man speak, but
what there is something about the carpet
bagger' Few know whereIthey come from /;
nobody knows how they live; perhaps
nothing but an itemized account of the Sc
cret-service money of the Reconstruction
Committee could tell that; but here they
are, buzzing about like gadfies, and seek
ing the weak points Of the country with the
unerring instinct of carrion crows. Hound
ed out Of the North for rascality-for every
where, now and then, some ugly past is
brought to light about them-they seek
and obtain employment in the cause of re-
construction, and come South. Some
worm into the Bureau; others foist them
selves on the revenue others play pimp,
spy, call-boy for the service and, outside
of these, the great bulk sustain life by
taking up subscriptions for the freedmen,
and levying contributions for the good OF the
party on Radicals st the North. We know
one case where, on the approach of cleo
ton, one of these gadhies came carpet-bag in
hand, into village; next day announced
himself candidate on the third day was
elected and now sits in a convention TO
reconstruct State Still another case oc-
curred-and it is susceptible of veri6cation
on oath-where another of these people, on
his way to take his seat as delegate,
pawned his carpet-bag to pay expenses
and, never coming to redeem it, had said
receptacle opened, only TO find therein
some Radical documents, under Congress
sional frank, and a few little personal ar
ticles, not worth, in all, over two dollar:
and half. Such are the new makers Of
constitutions, and the guides of negro vO-
tiers to a high civilization"

BERLIN, April 1.-The naturalization
treaty has just been concluded between the
United States, and the Confederation of the
North German States has been finally rati-
fed by the Federal Parliament. All the
speakers praised it with one voice, an6 it
was almost unanimously approved by the
members. Count Bismark in a speech
explaining IFS provisions, declared that it
was unnecessary to make a defense Of
treaty, as it seemed to meet with favor on
all sides. He summed up his explanation
by stating that the compact was clear at
all points, and that hereafter no native of
Germany, naturalized in the United States,
would be molested on account of his obli-
cations to his parent country, within the
borders of the Confederation. The Polish
members were among the small minority
who voted against its ratification.
