CHATrANooaA, Tam, March 30.-The
following dispatch, dated Memphis, has
been received by the Times from John
p. Richardson, the largest cotton planter
in the South: s.
81 find from special kilograms no break
in the levec at Friar's Point. Chief En-
gineer Dabney wires that there is no
break in his district. and none expected.
His levees are in iiue shape. A large
force is STRENGTHENING and raising every
suspicious place. 10 great extent the
newspapers here have been too sensa-
tlonal. l am sure the planters can and
will provide for their labor. Their lands
arc useless without labor. Wait until
the planters call for aid. I fear the
newspapers will cause tho laborers to do
rs they did in 1882, wait for Government
rations and refuse to work. Planting is
further behind now than I ever knew
it. The planters will call for aid when
it is necessary, and then their calls
should be responded to promptly and
privately and by tho Government. The
breaks in the levees are bad and causing
agood deal OF the country to be covered
with water, but let the planters not ap-
peal for mid, otherwise labor will be de-
moralized aud leave the planters in as
bad shape as if their lands were covered
with water.

Tho Sultan VIII Reform.

LONDON, March 30.-The sultan's
purse has been painfully depleted This
week by the necessity OF doing honor to
the Italian Crown Prince, who, being
young and fond Of fun, requires good
deal OF entertaining. He has been in
Constantinople nearly week, and shows
no present inclination to cut short his
visit. The Sultan has been much an
royed by the furious denunciations oi
the English Liberal newspapers OF his
alleged ,misgovernmcnt Of Armenia, and
for the cruclties perpctrated by. his
Pasbas in Crete, and talks OF prohibiting
the circulation within his domiuions OF
all European literature.
He has heard, too, Of the establishment
in London Of special committee to keep
the anti-Turkish agitation going and has
ordered his Ambassador TO furnish n
special report upon the prospects OF the
Liberal Government attaining power.
Should the reportindicate a probable
early change the Sultan will begin to
think about reforms. +.
