The Egyptian Rulers Royal Gift
to Gen. Sherman's Daughter.

The wedding gift from the Khedive
of Egypt to the daughter of Gen. Sher-
man reached New York by steamer on
Tuesday of last week, and was on pri-
ate exhibition in the Collectors parlor
of the Custom House.
The present is parure of diamonds,
necklace and ear drops, said to be the
most magnificent and valuable in this
country The necklace is composed Of
four strands of diamonds, each of which
is brilliant. Not one of them is worth
less than $1,000. The chain is studded
with the gems, and they are set SO
closely together as to hide the gold.
There are so many of them that Depu-
ty Collector Lydecker tired in the
count. He counted three hundred and
fifty, which is only about half of the
whole number. The strands are joined
by ten immense stones, each OF which
is encircled by smaller gems. The one
in front is the size of a hickOry-nut,
and is worth $4,000. Pendant from
the front is a festOon of brilliants with
five big pear-shaped stones Of finest wa
ter lustre hanging from it. The orna-
ments for the ear are single stones
equally Us large as the rest. The entire
set is appraised at from S26O,OO0 to
$500, goo.
The case for the jewels is plain mo-
rocco, without inscription. As soon as
the Secretary of the Treasury orders a
free permit for them under the special
act of Congress they are to be deliver
ed to the Turkish Minister, and by him
presented to the fair bride on behalf of
the Egyptian potentate.

Presidential Contest.

From Cincinnati Gazette.
Who the Democratic candidate for
President in 1876 will be it would not
be safe to predict at this early day, but
that Senator Thurman, of Ohio, con-
siders himself the coming man is pretty
well understood. This accounts for
his prominence in the Louisiana debate
in the Senate. The next day after the
scene in the Louisiana legislature Mr..
Thurman introduced resolution call
ing upon the President for the facts,
and without waiting for a response,
proceeded to discuss the question, de-
nouncing the President, Gen. Sheridan
and the Republican party. So anxious
was he to erect platform for the DEM
ocratic party in 1876 and to place him.
self upon it, that he could not wait for
the facts. He put himself forward on
the White League side of the contro-
versy, and by his deliverances in the
Senate, and by the deliverances of
some of his Democratic party squarely
on the White League platform. Dur
ing the whole debate on the Democrat
ic side there was not one word of CEN
sure of the lawlessness that prevails ia
Louisiana and other parts of the South !;
of the ostracism that is practiced on ac-
count of political differences of the
spirit of assassination in the air; of the
thirty-five hundred murders commit
ted in Louisiana alone; of the terrorism
that in mary places prevented the Re-
publicans from depOSitinp their ballots,
except at the risk of their lives; of the
manifest determination on the part of
the White Leagues to trample under
foot the constitutional amendments,
and to get control of the Governments
of the Southern States at any cost, and
in any way that may be deemed neces-
sary. Not one of all these effenses was
condemned or censured, either directly
or indirectly, either severely or mildly.
Their whole vocabulary of denunciation

Call for a Convention in the City
of Mansfield, Ohio. Feb. 18th
and 18th. 1875.

No intelligent citizen OF our country
need be informed that there exists in
our land a complicated and widespread
system of secret combinations. Free
masonry alone reports officially more
than half million of our adult male
population in its connection, and the
Odd-fellows something less, while the
Patrons of Husbandry claim a million
and a half in their order. These are
f1anked by Sovereigns of Industry,
knights of Pythias, Red Men, Daugh-
ters of Rebekah, AndrogynOus (or fe
male) Masonry, ETC., making in the ag
gregate most formidable army from
which the interested but unintilated
public are carefully excluded.
Many active Christians and patriots
both clerical and lay, are apprehensive
of grave evils resulting to society, the
State and the church from these secret
combinations, and while looking upon
them as hostile to REPUBLICAN state
and the Christian equality of mankind,
they find in their workings satisfac-
tory solution of many confesScdly
strange decisions in our civil and ec-
clesiastical courts. Others regard these
secret orders as trivial and unimport-
ant, and consequently see no cause of
alarm, and feel little concern on their
account.
Believing that the cause of God and
the welfare of mankind would be great
ly promoted by a union of all Christians
and patriot citizens upon the exact
truth; and believing that the substan-
tial truth may be attained by the use
of proper means; and believing that
one of the most efficient means to this
end is free discussion we do therefore
cordially invite such of our fellOw-citi-
zens as believe that the ceremonies,
obligations, signs, grips, passwords,
principles and governments of Free
masonry and kindred orders are legiti-
mate subjects for discussion, and who
believe that they ought to be correctly
submitted to the public for an intelli-
| gent verdict as to their utility or mis-
chievous influence, to meet in cOnven-
| ton at the city of Mansfield, Ohio,
! Feb. 18th, 1875, at 2 O'Clock p. NJ, in
the -, at which hour Rev. VIM.
Wishart. ID. d., will call the meeting
to order, and the convention proceed to
organize by selecting its officers and
adopting such rules and regulations as
it may elect.

THE official report OF the officer who
made an unsuccessful effort to find the
murderers of one Aston, a colored citi-
zen of De Soto parish, Louisiana. has
been received at Washington. After
describing his search after the murder
ers, he says:
"In no community where have yet
been have [ found the condition Of
things as unfav0rable as in the parish
Of DE Soto. There seems to be a perfect
condition of lawlessness, and The. ne
groeS are in continual state of terror,
and hopeless as to their prospect If OBJ
tanning justice from the parish courts.
The whites, as far as l could learn, are
members of the white League and
are bitter in their enmity to the blacks,
and unquestionably intend to adhere
to the resolution oil the League, entered
into before the election, to drive out Of
the country, or kill if they remained
all cOlored citizens who voted the Rad
ical ticket. The murder of Aston is
the first fruit of this determination,
and unless the law takes prompt and
severe action toward the murderers of
this man, other crimes still more afro
cious Will unquestionably follow. l
visited the scene of the Aston murder,
and from all the circumstances in the
case am free to denounce it as one of
the most barbarous and unwarranted
murders which has ever come under
nv notice."

GOVERNOR ALLEN, in his Wooster
speech, asserted that General Sheridan
steIegraphed to the President of the
United States that erery lCiiite man IN
the three States (Arkansas, Louisiana
and Mississippi,) is bandit and out
law We have nowhere seen from
Governor Allen or his organs retrac-
ton of this outrageous slander upon
one of the most gallant soldiers that
ever wore a sword. Such infamous ly-
ing cannot injure Sheridan. History
will have the original dispatch itself as
evidence that Sheridan never uttered
such falsehood. But how will it be
with Governor Aliens record? Has
he no pride in his name and fame to
preserve it unsullied from the reproach
of having foully slandered IA man who
deserves well of his country p o. s.
