The financial and all the business embarrassments undor which wo at the North were preessd was duo ta tho condition of afiaivs in tho South, for it wasimpoasiblo thata portion of thocountry should be in unarchy, and its 12,000,000 of pouple nuf- fering an invaslon of their soolal sud polltics rights, and the othar portions be unaflected. 116 thou began with tho history of THR ATTKMET AT RECONSTRUGTION, Degiuniug first with Prosidenc Liucoln's move- ment in Florida, while the War was in progrosa.

The matter of recomstruction was thrown upon Congress, but that body, un- willing to adopt auy policy, tho question wont avor Lill the closo of the War, aud it was nov Lill 1868 that it began to TAKE DEFINITE SITAPI, Then the Scuatots from Tennessco wore ad- mitted to the councils of tho nation.

It was suspected that thess caipet-baggers were runving the Governmout for their own peraonnl goin, and, in fact, thero wete gronndy for this suspicion, from the fact that tho rate of taxation way ivcreasod 1rom 30 couts to 160 on £100. The value of proporty was reduced from £8,300,000,000 to £140,000,000: the area of improved lands was reducod from 88,000,000 acres to 81,000,000, and their valuo from £1,200,000,000 to 515,000,000 ; and that the State debts had incrensod to AN ENORMOUS AMOUNT.

It was o wedding, I make bold to say, tha like of which waa nover colobrated an elther continent. Tho high contracting parties to the murringo wore Malis, only daughtor of De Souzn Cabral, TUE GREAT DIAMOND KIXG ot South Amorics, and Georgo Arthur Throok- morton, o native of Kentucky, United Statos of Amotion, who, for tle past fivo.yoars, hns beeh succoesfully ougaged m rilronding fu this country, with headquarters at Rlo Janoiro. Do Souza Cabral is principal owoer of nine of tho richest diamond mines in South Amoricyy and from thom, in the aggrogate, ho derives an annna! income of not legs than S20,- 000,000. Ilis intoreats in. gold mines probably smottuts to 08 much more, and I am cognizant of tho fact that lust August he sold n oue-tonth iutereet fu the celebrated Behin Mino—of whicls, unt1l then, ho had beon tho sole propriotor,—for 88,500,000, gold. Hisdiamond interesta in Bouth Afrien nnd Siberia Lo Iatoly cstimated under onth (in somelegal proceedivgs beforo coutt in Miuas CGeraes) at tho enormous sum of 250,000,- 000! 1o hu, boside, o groat pouchant for renl entato, and I was bub recently informed by ono of his ageuts, o thoroughly trustworthy man, that Cabral's rentals in London and Glasgow aloue yield over £160,000 anuually. In 1868 bo purchreed tho potont of a machine for making eyeclots, from a poor fellow whom ho fouud starving in o gnrret at Maranhum for such o bgatello as §183. To-dny tho machine fs oxtonsively used alt over the wotld, and Cabral draws $2,500 o dny from this sourco alono. Avd then, thero are his sowing- machino royaltics that yiold him something over £6,000 n day. Tho correctness of this last itom is vouched for by & friond of mine, who is tho manager of the leading sowing-machiue company iu Brazil. Indeed, it 1 ensy to teil what he is in- terested in, but bard to think of romething that is anytbiog in whiol ho is mot. It would be » puzzio to namo o loading ratlroad in South Amoricn or Etigland in whiel hio hins not a stoke, He takes in somothing ovor 91,600,000 » yoar from Lis steamsbip stock, and probsbly twice as mueh mote from othor Bources. A cool, oloar- bonded man of 60, 6 feot high, straipht 18 an ac- rov, with an oye like an_eaglo, a judzment ng unerring ae fato, nnd &_docision as quick as tho Iightning, with superb nerve, unconquerablo Dolduess, and an apparont incnoreity for blua- doxlug, Do Bouza Cavral stand to-day TUE WEALTHIEST JAN ON TUE GLORL, Ho was Iately asked by nu wtimate fricnd, in my prosence, if ho had aby concoption of the sum total of bis possessions, Mo thought for a moment, and thon quistly replied, ‘I conld not swear that I was not worth—presuming that I conld realize on_ all my proporty—$50),000,- 000,000." Ho made tus astounding exbiblt with perfect anug froid, but I must confess that a4 ho spolo I felt uamuthlnghvury liko ?ity for him. Icouldnot but think how specially difli- cnlt it might bo for him to watiefactorily solve {ho problem of the catnol aud tho needlo's eye. I would not have devolod so much space to tho faothor of the bride of this avening wero it not for tho fact thet otherwise tho account_that followed of tho wedding might bo received with iucreduhty, The bridegroom, young Tbrockmorton, is desconded from one of the oldest and wenlthiest families of tho *biuo grass conutry,” s be lovos to call it. Ho camo to Drazil with' a mattor of £500,000 in hiy own right, and sinco has prospored famously, Ko thas to-day ko cunnot bo worth less than £6,000,- 000. But n poor pittance in comparison with his fathor-in-law's overwhelmingly gigantic fortune, but still qnite sufliciont to reliove him from tho imputation of marrying tho falr Malia Cabral for money. 1lo met hor first a year ago at o ball at Pornambuco, aud the result was s onso of love at Hirst wight on both their parts, (atlonat, 8o * they say").
