SCARCITY OF SALT. There is a great search.
ty of Liverpool salt in the Richmond market
at present, SO much so that we heard yester-
day of an offer of So per sack having been
made and refused for lot. That price has
been good for few Sacks but the holder
would only give few at that price as matter
of accommodation. A cargo is now at City
Point, but it has been sold, to arrive, at a
figure somewhere between 81 aHd SO. We
hear that another cargo may soon be expected
coastWise. The destruction Of salt by the flood
in this city is, we presume, one OF the pilocl-
pal if not the principal, cause OF this great
advance in this market lck. Enquirer.

1t is said that the disabilities of Gov.
Vance, recently elected U. S. Senator from
North Carolina, have not yet been removed
Efforts, it is also said, are being made TO in
duce the Radical Senators to aid 10 obtaining
for him the seat to which he is, at least, Justly
entitled. The n Y. Tribune editorial'y ex-
presses the belief that such man in the U. s..
Senate as Gov. Vance, who is "honest, coura,
geous, hard-headed, with good Intentions and
imperfect lights can do more good than
harm and acquiesces in the result.

EUROPEAN AFFAIRS. The cable dispatches
give full! lat the same time very contradictory
details of the recent battles around Paris and
north Of the Loire. Our Geographic dispatch
es, published yesterday, gave several of these
statements.
The London Times has dispatch from
Tours that the army Of General Finoy sue
oseded in cutting through the German lines in
the southwest OF Paris, and has effected a
junction with the forces Of Do Palladlne's lett
wing. Prince Gortschakof replies to Earl Gran
Vile that the entire abolition of the treaty Of
Paris was never contemplated by Russia. lie
adheres to his former note, but accepts con-
ference Of the Powers on the Black Sea ques'
ton. At Berlin it is reported that new
treaty will be proposed, in which there will be
no reference 10 the naturalization OF the Black
Sea-

ADMIRAL PORTER ON GEN. GRANT. "A
letter is now published 10 the Washington
Patriot written by Admiral Porter, in 1865.
but few months before the close Of the war, to
Gideon Wells, then Secretary Of the Navy. 1t
relates to naval and military operations on the
coast of North Carolina. Considering what
has since occurred it is quite an erha ordinary
euiste, and as the Patriot remarks will be apt
to make ''the splintcrs fly" We find in it such
remarkable expressions as these
''I do not feel at all kindly towards Gen.
Grant for the Indifference he displayed in this
matter until he found his own reputation at
stake"
ITO General Grant, who is always willing to
take the credit when anything is done, and
equally ready to lay the blame of the failure on
the navy, when failure takes place, | feel I'M.
der 20 obligations"
His course proves to me that he would sac
r6ce his best friend rather than let any odium
fall on Lieutenant General Grant. He will
take to himself all the credit of this move now
that it is successful, when be deserves all The
blame for the first failure to take the place. 1"
I'm conversation with General Grant,
expressly told him that I wanted nothing to do
with General Butler. and he promised me
faithfully that he should not have any connec.
ton with the expedition. Two months [ waited.

'You will scarcely notice in his reports that
the navy did him any service, when, without
the help it has given him all the way through,
he never would have been Lieutenant General.
He wants magnanimity, like most officers Of
the army, and is so avaricious as regards fame
that be will never, if he can help it, do justice
to our department.

FINE Stock CATTLE. Our friends, Samuel
Rector and son, of Fauquier county, shipped
over the Orange railroad yesterday 430 head
ofsplendid stock cattle, purchased in South
wcst Virginia: These cattle were grazed the
past season by Colonel, Edward Perry, o!
their average weight is LOO pounds each,
costing $50 per head. The Messrs. Rector
are ranked amongst the most successful graz.
iers in upper Fauquier county, and the elder,
though 10 years Of age, has lost none of his
fondness for fine cattle, and ia addition to the
above, hes recently purchased many of the
Durham andDervon breeds,a number of which
took premiums at the late Agricultural Fair.
His purpose is to improve the breed OF cattle
in his county, for which his magnificent graz
ing fields in Fauquier arc admirably adapted.

ISAAC HUNTERS CAsE.-The Board CT Di,
rectors of the Central Lunatic Asylum had 6
special meeting on Tuesday, at which the
charges OF black mailing against Isaac Hunter,
colored, one of the directors of that institution
were fully investigated. The evidence before
the board clearly substantiated the charges, and
Hunter was asked to resign, which he did,
doubtless thinking it better to get out quietly
than to have the subject referred to the Cover.
nor, and be removed in disgrace.
All the directors were present OF this inves-
tigation, except Gen. ". H. Payne, and MIR.
G. W. Button.
Two colored members of the Board, Messrs.
Campbell, of Staunton, and Tyler, of Halifax,
deprecated the conduct of the accused, and
seemed to feel deeply hurt at the injury done
their race by him. Campbell alluded to the
fact that the appointment of colored men
in this directory, were the first positions Of
honor conferred on them in this State, and de.
plored the fact that one of their number should
have so soon betrayed his trust.-Rich. Eng
