DEATH OF JOHN SLIDELL.-Hon.
John Sidell, of Louisiana, died at
London, England, July Both, in the
18th year of his age. Mr.. Slidell was
one of the most eminent Southern
statesman of his day, and has filed
many public offices of trust and re-
sponsibility. In 1861 he, in company
with Hon. Jas. n. Mason (who died a
few weeks ago at Alexandra, Vir-
ginia,) sailed for France as Minister
from the Southern Confederacy; and
their subsequent capture by Capt.
Wilkes of the q. S. ship San Jacinto,
is too fresh in the minds of our read
ers to need special mention here
The Sacramento Reporter tells us that
.Mr. Slidell arrived in France, we
think, early in 1862, and we do not
recollect that he at any time since re-
turned to this country. His daugh-
ter, true woman, of noble and heroic
nature, as her conduct at the arrest of
her father on board the Trent showed,
was married some years ago to NJ.
Erlanger, the Paris banker. A well
written life of John Slidell would be a
work of thrilling interest, and will
probably be undertaken by some gen.
tleman in New Orleans who is init
mately acquainted with his eventful

The Radicals havn't made single
point in their Ku-klux Investing Com

bagger comes up and swears that the
South is as peacable as any part of the
North. And just as soon as carpet

diately all the radical papers North
swear with their loudest voice that he
has gone over to the Democrats.
They are all saying, now that Dick

many others are quitting the rotten

that this is poor way for the Radi-

B0UTwELL's NEW FAILURE.


Tie, Washington Patriot says that
no intelligence has been received at
the treasury department tending to
corroborate the cable telegram, sent
from London to New York, few
days since, to the effect that Judge
Richardson had been perfectly sue.
cessful in his negotiations for the dis
posal of the new loan in Europe. On
the contrary, whatever is known con-
.cefning the operations of the agents
sent abroad to place the new bonds in
the market is anything but encourag
ing. In the meantime, the numerous
agents employed to sell the new
bonds at home have only succeeded in
disposing of some sixty-eight millions
of them, and those disposed of are
only of the highest class, and not n
dollar of the II and per cent. bonds
has yet been. taken. Thus it viii be
seen that the entire amount of new
loan (which has been on the market for
several months) that has actually been
disr osed of is less than seventy mil
lions, and of that amount, ut least sixty
millions is in transfers by the national
banks, so that the actual new sub
scriptions are under ten millions.
The Burlington Gazette says this is
decidedly bad showing for the re-
funding scheme of the administration;
is, in fact, practical demonstration of
its utter failure. No doubt Mr..
Boutwell, has done his best; no doubt
his agents have done their best TO sell
the new bonds, and to convince the
people of the advantage they offer for
safe investment on long time -
but it is notorious that the refundine
scheme was passed so much in favor
of the national banks as to paralyze
the hands of the government from the
contrast. 1t is also notorious that ne
bill which compelled the nationa
banks to transfer the 6 per cent. foi
lower-rate bonds could have go
through Congress, in the face of th'
bank presidents and bank director:
} who hold seats in that body.
Now there is another fact in rela
ton TO the failure of the new loai
which demonstrates how jealous hav,
} been the efforts: :of the government Il
dispose of it, and that is the fact tha
the advertising bills already reaci
10000; and when to that amour
: is added the commission ofthe agents
the aggregate is further augmented
, by considerable figure. Then ther'
!. should be added the heavy expense o
The two costly embassies which hav,
teen sent to Europe to sell the bond
there, and which cannot be fairly esti
J mated at much less than $4,000 il
, gold. In view of the discouraging fact
above referred TO, there would seen
to be some foundation for the rumo
J which was current in Washington
day or two since. to the effect tha
: Mr.. Boutwell, had ordered the note
| printing companies in New York L
: suspend the printing of the new bond
until further notice.

GRFAT STORM AT WALLA WALLA.-
Telegraphic dispatches from that
place to the morning papers, dated
August Sd relate the following:
About 6 o'clock Saturday evening
this particular locality was visited by
q terrible storm of hail, wind and rain,
which for a time threatened great de-
struction Of property. The storm
seemed to pass directly over the town,
and its track, SO far as traced, is less
than mile wide. Commencing at
the lower end of town, it made sad
havoc with fruit and shade trees, and
grape vines and shrubery generally
suffered. On the line of Poplar
street, as indeed all other localities,
where attention has been given to
planting trees, the damage was great.
The storm expanded its force in half
an hour, but in that briefspace large
amount Of property was destroyed.
The grape vines and fruit trees within
the track of the storm were almost
stripped. and in several cases the loss
from this source is heavy. Itfurthei
states that the damage done outside
of town is very great, particularly SC
at the farms of Judge Mix, Mr.. Ora
ham, Mr.. Stofell and p. Roork.

to the Democrats by about 10000
majority. When we remember that
about fifty-thousand negroes voted in
that State at this election this
result is very encouraging and
indicates that the sterling De-
mocracy of Old Kaintuck" will al
ways be able to roll up handsome
majority over the combined efforts OF
the lying carpet-baggers, Immense ma

his design exposed by a negro.

The Prince of Wales and the
Marquis of Ilorne are evidently not
on good terms, if we may judge from
the following, which appeared in the
Dundee Advertiser, which paper had
it from its London correspondent: A
curious story is in circulation with re-
gard to the relations of the Marquis
OF Lorne and the Princess Louise to
the other members of the royal fami-
". I believe that at the Duke of
Sutherland's banquet to the Russian
Grand Duke, now in this country, the
Marquis and Princess were treated
as of the royal family. The prince of
Wales, however, will not accept this
view OF the position, and at the State
ball the other night gave orders that
the Marquis should not be admitted
at the royal entrance. He was ac-
cordingly refused admittance, and
the Princess declined to enter except
with her husband, saying that her
place was where he was. The Mar
quis could not take the Princess in
by the general public entrance, and
the result was that they did not attend
the ball. The circumstance has
caused a good deal of talk in upper
circles.

themselves with him in secluded

Ihaye lawsuit I wish you to attend
to for me- All right" replied the
lawyer; come to my Office and I
will talk to you about it.n Then he
turned, and the man Immediately
drew revolver and shot him dead.
Although the murdererlescaped, it is
