ARRIVAL OF A NOTED CRAFT-The ship
Raye, bearing the Peruvian flag, under com
mand of Captain Moulton, arrived at Boston,
Saturday, after q passage of thirty-three days
from Carihagena, New Grenada, S. A. This
vessel has passed throuuh some strange yicissi-
tudes She was originally known as the steam
er r. r. Cuyler, and sailed out of New York as
passenger and freight boat, but ON the break
ing out of the secession war she was sold to the
United States government for a gunboat, and
at the ctose OF the conflict was purchased by the
Peruvian government at the time of the troubles
between Peru and Spain. She then received
at New York cargo of 10000 musl1ets. and
other war material, and put to sea under the
Peruvian flag. On reaching West India waters
she was overtaken by some Spanish men, war
who made an effort to capture her, but she out
sailed them and was chased into the port of
where she was blockaded for a long time by her
pursuers. Her captain and mate were after
wards taken and shot, Subsequently the diff
Guilty between Spain and Peru was settled, but
the steamer was allowed to remain at Cartha-
gena, where from neglect and long disuse her
machinery became useless. She was brought
to Boston by SAIL under contract and it is prob
able will be broken up. Her cargo to Boston
consisted of 400 tons of old cannon and other
war material

ANY delicate doubts which may have been en-
tertained in regard to the reality of Stanleys
described interview with Dr. Livingstone at
Ujiji-and such doubts have been expressed
must now be finally dssipated. inasmuch as
a veritable letter is now published from the
great traveller, which fully corroborates the
fact The letter is written. to the late James
Gordon Bennett and details the sensation the
nantnr felt meeting Stanley and the Amer
lean flag in that far off wild. He also thanks
the Herald in the warmest terms for seeking
him out, and for the generosity which will en-
able him to further prosecute his researches.
We now have it from the Doctor himself that
he has been diligently following the great water
shed of South Africa during the past years,
uncheered by single word from horne, and
having explored this watershed for about six
hundred miles, he has obtained tolerably
clear idea of the system of drainage of the great
interior lakes which must in some way supply
the Nile valley. He has been following this
drainage through the country of the cannibals
and amid the innumerable difficulties, until
further progress is rendered impossible by the
utter lack of supplies, and when but about one
hundred miles remain to be explored. This
terra incOgnita contains, he thinks, the key to
the whole problem, in the shape of four foun-
tains, two of which drain into Egypt, Lupera
and LORRAINE, and two into inner Ethiopia.
These fountains, he is satisfied, are the sources
of the Nile. He is gratified to state that the
means furnished by the Herald expedition will
now enable him to prosecute his explorations
until they shall be rewarded by complete sue
cess and if the world will but possess its soul in
patience for another two years, it may feel GER
tain that its curiosity on the subject of the great
Nile puzzle will be fully gratifed. In the mean
time, for the light we have, our thanks are due
to the New York Herald and, its indefatigable
lieutenant, Stanley. ~

No one has yet attempted to connect
Mr.. Greeley with any correspondence with
the rebel agents that has been brought to
light by the recent purchase of the rebel
archives. No one will attempt it. No one
would believe that he would do it. His real
connection was as a negotiator-a compro-
miser in the darkest year of the war, 1854.
When he volunteered his part it was at the
close of a bloody and apparently fruitless
campaign. The Presidential election was
pending. The Democracy stood pledged to
peace at any price. The army was wearied,
the people almost hopeless, the rebel sympa-
thizers in the North organized to resist drafts.
1t was at this time that Mr.. Greeley entered
upon his unauthorized negotiations with
Southern emissaries to bring about peace,
when it would have been simply triumph
for the South and slavery. Could Mr.. Gree
ley have had his way he would have nego-
tiated for a peace that would have lost all,
restored slavery, divided the nation and
brought upon a continent the direst calami-
ties. ~ lr -. Is .,-
Mr.. Greeley did not take this action be-
cause he desired notoriety or was not honest
and patriotic. 1t was an act of folly and
weakness, if not of positive moral cowardice.
Better than anything else this act illustrates
the shifting and uncertain character of the
man who, though in certain positions display
ing great ability, has always in the hour of
peril been inclined to do that which would be
the worst possible thing to do. 1t is this sort
of folly and weakness that would render Mr..
Greeley's elevation to the Presidency great
misfortune to the country.

Shakespeare Concerning Clifford.

The quarrel between the houses of York
knows, though it is more familiar as the war
of York and Lancaster. Shakespeare tells
the story, and in casually looking over King
Henry vi, we find much that is either pro-
phetic or descriptive of the struggle that is
now about to begin between Burleigh, of
York and ''young Clifford" of Cumberland.
1t will only be necessary to read Burleigh, for
Warwick, and occasionally for some other
name, to make these sortes Shakespearidne
very pertinent. 1t will be remembered how,
in former times, it was customary to open the
Bible or Virgil at random and to regard the
sentence that CHANGED to be hit upon as hav-
ing reference to coming events. Applying
this method to Shakespeare, we have the
following amusing result: ..s. ..r-...-.
Here is the challenge of York: r..-. ......

A STRANGE SEQUEL TO THE UXBRIDGE BANK
ROBBERY. The Boston Transcript states that
about IL o'clock Saturday forenoon, Messrs'
Eben b. Sayward and Jacob Taft, gentlemen
connected with the Uxbridge Bank, called at
the Office of chief-of-police with a communica-
ton without any signature, which bore the
New York postmark of July %, stating that
some articles stolen from the Uxbridge Bank
could be found ON the BackBay lands, and
giving diagram of the locality.
At first the cas- had rather a dreamy look
but on comparing the envelope with another
that the same gentleman had previously re-
ceived containing papers that had been stolen
from the bank on the night of the robbery, it
was decided to explore, and Officers Wood and
Ham, Of the City Police, accompanied by the
gentlemen allowed named, Immediately set out
to prospect. Guided by the diagram, they pro-
ceeded to the grounds, borrowed tools of some
workmen in the neighborhood, and began oper-
atoms, and after somewhat protracted search,
they at last unearthed copy of one of the Bos
ton dailies, which proved to contain one gold
watch, one diamond ring, two plain gold rings,
one gold thimble, one pair air bracelets, two
gold pencils, two pair gold-bowed spectacles,
and several other articles, which were keep
sakes, belonging to little Mabel Taft, left by her
deceased mother, and which had been placed
in the vault for safe keeping by her grandpa
ther, the cashier of the bank. .-s.r.
MI. Sayward expresses great satisfaction on
the recovery of the property, and thinks there
is truly some honor among some thieves.

was sent by 1.-THE gentlemanly burglars, in re-

THE CHARGES AGAINST Consul GENERAL
BUTLER.-The New York Heralds Washing
ton despatch states that General F. A. Star
ring, our consular agent, in his report of the
investigation of Consul General Buffers affairs
sustains by volumnious evidence the many
charges deemed official and reveals frightful
state ofaaffairs. Thel report has been at the
State Department for several weeks. Among
the charges sustained are ignorance and neg
lect of the Office, violence, malicious prosecu-
ton of missionaries and certain Americans in
the Egyptian army, appointing consular agents
without authority for pecuniary and other con-
siderations, the dismissal of authorized consul
lar officers, retaining money turned over by
missionaries belonging to a minor child, abuse
of official power and completely in the assault
on missionary Strang by Strologe, his outside
man. These are only few of the charges
made. The missionaries were at one time re-
solved to seek the protection of foreign consuls,
but Strang declared that he would return to the
United States before he would submit to such a
humiliation. The whereabouts of Butler at
present is not known,

GEN. FITZPATRICK has called upon us and
made a statement in respect to the charge
made against him for years in many journals,
that he carried lewd woman with him on his
first visit to Chill as Minister, with whom his
conduct was grossly scandalous. He says that
the only woman in his party was his mother
in-law-his first wife having died just before
he started,-a lady of over sixty years of age,
and that within nine months after his arrival
at Chilli he married the niece of the President
of the country, who was also niece of the
Archbishop, which seems conclusive proof
that he could not have been guilty of the
open offences against decency which were al
legged. E.... ..a
We are very glad to give publicity to this
explanation in common fairness to political
opponent. The story was originated by Dem
ocratic papers when Gen. Fitzpatrick was
Republican, and so far as we know has never
been retracted nor in any way explained by
them, even since its subject has come into po-
litical alliance with them
