Miscellaneous Dispatches.
Domestic Notes.

FROM WASHINGTON.
WAsHINGToN, June 6.-There is absolutely
no truth in the statement that Gen. Sickles
notified the Spanish government that the ques-
tion of restoring the sequestrated estates of
American citizens in Cuba, &C., must be settled
as the alternative of the employment Of force.
These very claims are referred, with all matters
in dispute for settlement, by the convention re-
Gently concluded.
Secretary Fish himself is authority for the
statement that he is not to be one of the arbi-
traters in the Alabama claims.
Rumors having been circulated that the de.
partment of agriculture has predicted a very
short crop of cotton this year, it is proper to
state that no estimates of the growing crop
have been officially made, and no report con-
corning it has been issued this season. An esti-
mate of the comparative average and state
ment on the condition of the crops will be made
in about two weeks.
REPORTED OPINIONS OF PRESIDENT GRANT.
NEW YORK, June 6.-President Grant, in the
interview with a reporter yesterday, said in
reference to the Berlin mission: Bancroft is
anxious to be relieved He wants to 20 to Italy
TO live. He made his wish known to me some
time since. | can't, however, relieve him just
now. He is thoroughly informed on the San
Juan question, in all its bearings, and his SER
vices will be required at Berlin until the treaty
between the United States and Great Britain is
finally disposed of. To relieve him now would
be iniudicious, to say the least, but as he has
asked to be allowed to resign in the fall, he can
then do so without injury to our interests. Be
fore October arrives the treaty will be fixed all
right"
Concerning the appointment of Brigham
Young's son to West Point by Mr.. Hooper, the
president said :-"Had known of Hooper's in
tention certainly would have asked the attor-
ney general whether had power under the law
to prevent the appointment, and if advised af-
Tentatively would have settled the matter there
and then" The appointment of Gen. Meagher's
son to West Point was sent to the war office by
the president and returned with the Endorsement
that the applicant had already been appointed
by Mr. Roosevelt.
The president said he saw no necessity for a
change in the financial policy of the govern
ment "Mr. Boutwell, will remain secretary of
the treasury, and there will be no change in the
financial policy of the government am salts
fed with both, and notwithstanding the opposi-
ton of some public journals to the secretary,
believe the country generally is satisfied with
him."

A contemporary, taking notice of an expedi.
ton to make survey of the coast of Alaska
and of certain unknown islands near it, gets of
this cheering statement: GAS our national in
terests are growing in that part of the CONT
nent, and its commercial value is becoming
every year more important to us, it seemed
necessary to define as nearly as possible the
nature and extent of our possessions in that
quarter" This is good better than extracting
sunshine from cucumbers; and it is quite as
true just now, doubtless, as it ever will be.
Somebody should make report on the subject,
so that all who read may study the brilliant
growth of our commerce with the conjectural
Alaskan islands, and the steady increase of all
American interests Gin that quarter" As this
writer says, our knowledge of those islands is
Gin great measure conjectural." A region so
miraculous should not be left in this condition.
Therefore, send out the exploring expeditions,
by all means, and give the world a chance to
understand that we have, up there towards the
north pole, something so rich and strange that
the millions of gold paid for it should never
again be mentioned in comparison with its
value.

STATISTICS OF THE WAR. The German
losses turn out, on revision of the official lists,
to have been smaller than was at first believed.
The total loss in killed, wounded and missing,
amounts to AZ 1862, viz: 2167 officers and 1924
men killed, 1888 officers and 274t7 men wound
ed, and sixteen officers and 5000 men missing.
The gains of the war, on the other hand, in tro-
phies and prisoners are unusually large, indeed,
so considerable as to be unique in history. The
BreStdUer Zeltttlg, with patriotic pride enumer-
ates the long list, which it compares with our
paltry acquisitions in the Crimea, and those OF
the French in Italy. By this account, the last
three Prussian campaigns have been wonderful
ly prolific of such memorials of victory, and
present a strage contrast to former wars. Thus,
at the Alma we took two coloTs and two guns,
at Inkerman we lost three guns, and at the
storming of the Malakoff we captured one stand
ard and thirty-one guns. The number OF prls-
oners in the campaign did not exceed 5000. The
entire spOlS of the French in 1859 consisted OF
three colors, twenty-siX guns and l6,OOO prls-
oners. The Prussians, on the other hand,
took at Duppel 10 colors, t19 guns, and 3,400
prisoners; at Alsan, ID colors, 90 guns, and
2,494 prisoners; at Koniggratz, 7 colors, 161
guns, and 10 800 prisoners; altogether in 1866,
10 colors, 2OS guns, and $4,000 prisoners. The
figures for the late war are more formidable
still. AT Spicheren, Pange, Gravelotte, Won
vile, L'Hallu and Bapaume, indeed hardly any
trophies were taken. But at Wissembourg, 2
colors, gun, and 800 prisoners were captured;
at Worth, eagles, "a guns, 8 mitrallleurs, and
1000 prisoners; at Beaumont, eagles and
colors, over so guns, and 10000 prisoners; at
Sedan, 400 guns and mitrailleurs, and $4,000
prisoners, with all their coors; at Metz, Sc
eagles, 900 guns and mtrailleurs, and 100000
prisoners. Altogether, exclusive of the capitu-
lation of Paris, the late war has yielded over 100
eagles and colors, 6,4O0 guns, and 374,995 pris-
oncrs to which ought to be added 81, 1000 in
termed in Switzerland, and 5000 interned in
Belgium. The capitulation of Paris has added
another 40, 900 prisoners, the number of trophies
being not yet accurately stated-PdH Mall

Do NOT NEGLECT THE Young GRAFTs.-It
should not be forgotten that gratis, which have
been fairly set this spring, when they once fairly
start to grow they mostly go ahead rapidly, and
becoming laden with leaves, and the hold they
have upon the stock being very slender, they
frequently break off. Birds will also light upon
them and their added weight snaps them. They,
therefore, should be attended to and pruned,
when they have shot eight to ten inches, by
one-half They usually make better branches
by this abscission, and in no event is there any
injury. Crafts set last spring should also be ex-
amined, and where the wax has become loose
and fallen away, or where the split has widened,
additional wax should be supplied, otherwise the
water gaining entrance will either kill or weaken
them, giving them an unsighty appearance,
and at least stunning them for perhaps years.
Sometimes they never recover from it.

Renaissance OF HENRY GRAgTAN-Sir
Jonah Darlington, in his pleasant Sketches"
thus relates an interview which took place upon
the introduction of Aaron Burr and John Ran
dolph of South Carolina to Henry Grattan:
awe went to my friends house on the eve
ming before he was to leave London. / an
nounced that Col. Burr, Mr.. Randolph, Ifrom
American and myself wished to pay our re-
spects, and the servant informed us that his
master would receive us in a short time, but
was, at the moment, much occupied on business
OF consequence. Burrs expectations were all on
the alert. Randolph was also anxious to be
presented to the great Grattan, and both impa-
tient for the entrance of this Demosthenes. At
length the door opened, and in hoped a small,
bent fguTe-meagre yellow and ordinary: one
slipper and one shoe; his breeches loose at the
knee; his cravat hanging down, his shirt and
coat-sleeves tucked up high, and an old hat upon
his head. This apparition saluted the strangers
very courteously; asked without any introduc-
tiOn,) how long they had been IN England, and
Immediately proceeded TO make inquiries about
Gen. Washington and the revolutionary war
My companions looked at each other; their re-
plies were curt, and they seemed quite impatient
to see Mr.. Grattan. / could scarcely contain
myself, but determined to let my &C.
centric countryman take his own course.
He appeared quite delighted to see his visitors,
anu was lhO hlOob ptTSOu III LuG
world. Randolph was far the tallest and most
digni6ed-looking man of the two, gray-haired
and well-dressed. Grattan therefore took him
Tor the vice president, and addressed him ac-
cordingly. Randolph at length begged to know
II they could shortly have the honor of seeing
Mr.. Grattan. Upon which our host (not doubt
| ing but they knew him) conceived it must be
| his son James for whom they inquired and
| said he believed he had at that moment wan
| dered out somewhere to amuse himself. This
completely disconnected the Americans, and
they were about TO make their bow and their
exit when thought it high time TO explain,
and, taking Col. Burr and Mr.. Randolph re-
spectiyely by the hand, introduced them to
Right Hon. Henry Grattan. | never saw people
stare so, or SO much embarrassed Grattan
himself now perceiving the cause heartily
joined in the merriment; he pulled down his
shirt-sleeyes pulled up his stockings, and in his
own irresistible way apologized for the outre
figure he cut, assuring them that he had totally
overlooked it in his anxiety not to keep them
waiting; that he was returning TO Ireland next
morning, and had been busily packing up his
books and papers in a closet full of dust and
cobwebsl This incident rendered the interview
more interesting; the Americans were charmed
with their reception, and, after a protracted
visit, retired highly gratiied, while Grattan re-
turned again to his books and cobwebs. p
