Bruce B.ackburn, of Blackburnsboro’, Scot- land, one of the wealthiest manufacturers in Surope, died a few months since, leaving an esinte estimated atover two millions of dollars. ‘The heirs at law, as we understand from par- ies Cob versant with the history of the family, ve the late John Blackburn, of South Caro- nd another brother who settled in East Tennessee several years since. John Black- hurn’s estate is represented in part by Dr J. ©. Blackburn, of this city, and perhaps by .er brother somewhere in the West, pro- y in Texas or Arkansas,” Dry Goops.— The A Larex Ciirrer Sutr Not Hearp From. The New York Times says:—The most pain- tul anxiev is felt by her New York owners for the safety of the lurge clipper ship Monareh ol the Seas, now about forty days overdue trom Liverpool. She sailed from that port on the 20th or 22d of March, with over sever hun- dred emigrant passengers and an assorted cargo. Uther vessels sailing abeut the same time for New York arrived herein 35 or 40 days. It was supposed last week that she had become dismasted and put into Fayal, Island Madeira, for repairs: but advices trom that port tothe Mth of May make no mention of her.” Tue Evrorean NCE.—The great conference which is to attempt the pacification of Europe was to have begun its sessions in Parts on Tuesday, June i2. England, France, Russia, Austria, Prussia, and Italy will be represented—the Prime Ministers of five of these countries attending at Paris, and being presided over by the Emperor Napoleon. Ear Clarendon will represeat England; the Emperor Napoleon, France; Prince Gorcha- kofl, Russia; Count Mensdorf, Austria; Count Hismarck. Prussia; and General La Marmora, ltaly. SovuTHern Crors.—A Georgia paper repre- sents the crop prospects along the Arkansas and White rivers as promising. In the interior and northern and extreme southern ions of Arkansas they are indifferent, while along the shores of the Mississippi the high water has resulted disastrously, d the late continued Tains have added to the damage, universally procrastinating the replanting of crops. From the interier of Texas disheartening reports come alco. By some the incoming cotton crop is put at 850.000 bales. This, however, is an absurdly low estimate, &7 The negro troops stationed at Fort Smith, Ark., are said tobe inutinous becanse ordered to mareh to New Mexico. A considerable number of them are underarrest. Atone time there was danger of a fight between the white d black troops. A number of the blacks yore they would rather die than goto New Mexico, and Joaded their guns to resist the of- ficers Their courage failed them, however, when the test came, and they obeyed orders when directed to stack their arms. THe MIANTONOMAU.—This new fron-clad made a most smecessful passage recently be. tween Halifax and Uape Race,in sevanty- eight hours,and she ix now at Vane Rice awaiting orders for her departure to Enro There is much difference of opinion abou: h-r abiuty to weather a gale in mid ocean, but as the Monadnock successfally rounded Cape Horny there is no reason why the Miantonomah, & similar vessel, should pot survive a storm ia the Atlantic. Soe he ea WHAT THE INvaston Cost CayApA—Itis stated that the expense incurred by Osnada in consequence of the Fenian Tavestod mp to thie time, may he estimated at a sum not far short of $2.500,000, and that sum wil} be largely increased before the matter subsides into quitness. ° Fenian Items. Mr. Roberts has issued another address to the efficers and soldiers of the irish Republi- can Army, which says: In view of the un- expected and repressive measnres of the Umited States Executive at Washington to crush the co- tive movement for the liberation of Ireland, I recommend that you return to your respective homes until such time as a fresh campaign can be inaugurated at a not far distant day. A Toronto despatch says: Volunteers on the frontier, whose business urgently requires them home, are now permitted to leave. The others will remain under arms, It is pot de- cided whether the Fenian prisoners will be tried by civil or military court. Some of the ministry favor lenity; others that an example should be made. Dispatches from Malone, N. Y.,say: Gen Meade Was serenaded by the Malone band. After repeated calis he made his appearance id advised the Fenians to abandon their en- terprise, which was now hopeless, and return t ir homes, adding that unless they did so ould use sufficient force to compel obedi- ence to the order already issued. His remarks Were received with cheers by onr citizens, while the Fenians frequently interrapted him by cheering for Sweeny. Some Fenians are reported lurking about the country, appropriating watches, clothing, and other articles they may want, but the war is practically over in thie locality. (General Meade and staff have left in aspecial train for St. Albans. The examination of officers under arrest has closed, and the parties have ail been held to bail. Large numbers of the Fenian army arrived at New York city yesterday. and were fur- nished transportation bome from the Fenian headquarters.
