Judge Abell nas written a letter to General Sheridan, throngh the New Orleans news- papers, defending himeelf against the charge ot being a aearerete man. He says that in his judicial station he knows naught but fidelity to State and humanity to th@unfortunate, re- oy ove ofcolor. if he was dangerous, then @ was & most successful agitator, for, until the assemblage of the would-be-con vention, on the 16th ultimo, the civil court of the State had faitBfully administered the laws, and as effec- tually preserved as any city of the Union botwithstanding thattwo armies had posses- sion of the city and the large influx of negroes. He firmly believed that not a d of blood would have been shed had the mi been balfas earnest as he was in opposing at. tempted usurpation. He adds that since the re-establishment of ciyil authority in Louisi- ana the status of Northern men has been one of perfect safety; and he tells General Sheri- dan that if he thinks his assertion correct, he may rejoice in it, bat among good men his thonehts will not add to his reputation. Private advices received at San francisco say that the real destination of the Spanish fleet heretofore reported at Popeiti is believed to be some rendezvous in ath “America, although it is reported at Tahiti thatthe steam. er Uncle Sam had loaded to run the blockade at Valparaiso, and had been seized and con- Tiscated by the Spanish fleet. It was alleged that the attemptto run the blockade was a sham, and that the Pacific Mail Steam ship Company, who owned the veseel, re- ceived from the Spanish admiral $90,000 for supplying the fleet with stores, The young man, Milton Benson ,who was shot at the camp meeting riot, it is thought willrecover. The loc’l authorities of Anne Arundel county, in which the camp was held, are investigating the affair. A colored man was arrested in Baltimore yesterday on a warrant by them, charged with riotous con- duct at said camp and using threats to killa white man. So far as learned none of the white rioters have been arrested. Several cases of cholera occurred last week among the troops at Camp Grant, near Rish- mond, Va. The disease is reported increasing in thatlocality. No recent cases have occurred in Richmond. Aspecial meeting of the Philadelphia City Councils has been called for to-day, to tender the hospitalities of the city to the Southern delegates to the Convention. The wires of the Rursian-American Tele- gtaph have been stretched a distance of 715 miles above New Westminster, in British Uo- jumbia. ———— THE PRESIDENT'S TOUR. RocuEster, Sept. 1.—The tion here Was mostenthusiastic. The Mayor introduced the President and extended the hospitalities of thecity. The Presidentsaid: Demonstrations like this inspire me with confidence and en- courage me in the course of the policy I have pursued for the preservation of the Union and the vindication of the Constitution of the United States. [Cheers.] 1 rely on the intella- gence, integrity, and patriotism of the great mass of the American people to preserve this Government in the present as they have in past emergencies. jough physically man is weak and intellect is not as strong as it ought to be I thank God that the spirit is right, (ap- plause;) as long as the biood that now warms and animates and courses up and down = veins lasts, the energies of my manhood shail be devoted to the interests of the Union and Constitution of the country. [Applause.} A. MEDINA. Mepina, Sept. 1—3:40 P. M.—The train ar- rived at Medina, where the hospitalities of the city were extended to the President. NIAGARA. NIAGARA FALLs, Sept. 1.-The President arrived here at @20 this P. M.. and was en- thusiastically mceived. NraGara FaLts, Sept. 2.—The excursionists rode out to-day to see the falls. No formali- ties were observed, separate parties having been formed according to their preferences. The President, in company with Secretaries Seward and Wells, spent some time on the American side of the falls, and afterwards went as far as the suspension bridge, but did not cross over it. The President is suffering from hoarseness, owing to frequent and loud speaking, but in other respects is in good bodily condition. From eyes indications there will be an unusually large outpouring of the people of Buffalo, for which city we will leave to-mor- Tow morning at nine o'clock. Large numbers of ladies and gentlemen called to ree the President. He gave them a recep- tion in the hotel parlor. me of the Cana- dians called to pay their respects, among them five or six Catholic clergymen. It may be mentioned as an extraordinary fact that no body bas, since the President left Washington, conversed with him on the subject of office or asked him for a place. Visit to Jeff. Davis. The Richmond Whig gives the particulars of an interview held within aday or twobya gentleman of Richmond, with Jeff. Davis, and says “he enjoyed two interviews with Mr, Davis, whonow has the liberty of the Fort during the day, unattended by any guard, although confined to his quarters and cissely watched by night. “Mr. Davis was in & conversational mood, and talked freely on all subjects which came up. He expressed his regret that during the existence of the Confederacy there should have existed any differences of opinion be- tween himself and other Southern officers and gentlemen, but hoped that such feelings would be forgotten and all offences mutually forgiven. ie expressed the warmest Pde orm for the sufferings and struggles of gallant Con- federate soldiers, who at the clese of the war had returned to ruined and desolated homes, to battle with b sponkt & and all its attendant evils, and said he often thought of them in the silent hours of the night. when sleep refused to visit his troubled eyelids, but he felt as- sured that the same indomitable will and energy which carried them th: hsucha war would in the end be crowned with competence and plenty. Mr. Davis inquired eagerly after many per- sonal friends, and sent kindly messages to many. His health had, he said, improved within the past tortnight but he was still very weak. In speaking of the disgraceful man- aching aifair, he said that he attached no biame to Gen. Miles, who had simply obeyed instruc- tions. He said. however, that orders to sbackle him had been several times forwarded to the Fortress, but that the officers postponed or evaded its execntion. In regard to Dr. Craven's boox, the Doctor had, Mr. Davis said, put language into his mouth which was never used by him, but the Doctor’s timidity pre- vented him from writing a truthful and accu- rate account of many conversations and cir- cumstanees.”” A LorTEeRy Swinpte Broken Ur.—The Louisville (Ky,) Oourier of the 3ist ult. says: For some time pasta party of Cincinnatians pave bad In operation a lottery concern osten- sibly for the purpose of raising funds for the relief of the suffering poor of A . Their advertisements and bills appeared in many of the Jeading Southern papers, and a great man: persons, more especially of the South, in- vested ostensibly in the affair, supposing it a bona fide arrangement, asa large number of names were attached as references, supposed to be prominent citizens of this city. Only one or two of those are actual personages, and thoee were prominent gentlemen of this city, who, the moment they heard of the affair, hastened to make known to the public that their names were being used without au- therity. We yesterday morning gave a fall and un- biased accountof the affair as faras developed, mentioning the arrest of several of the parties. Yesterday morning some of the parties were before the City Court for trial, for having in tbeir possession lottery tickets and selling or offering the same for sale. Among these was Captain Samuel Wideman, of Cincinnati. ne Chief of Police, as we mentioned yes- terday, has tak possession of a!l money sent by express to this . and addressed to Wil- liamson, Simmins & Co., and be bas now seye- ral eckebes of - 'e yesterday morn: ‘ublished a letter from Governor patton of Rinvams. disclaim. mg baving given iar sanction to this adair which must brand it on the face as of A arried on withoutany authority from the Sta: ef v y LATE FROM EUROPE_BY CABLE.

The Attempt to Recover it Successfal—The Great E elaying it. St. Jonny's, N. F., Sept. 24—Tne steamer Terribie arrived here to-day. She left the ca- ble fleet Wednesday evening, being short of coal and provisions. At that time the Great Eastern was starting fora spot one hundred miles east of where the cable was laid last year, all attempts to raise the cable in two fathoms depth having failed. The following is Mr. Beale’s dairy: Sunday, August 12—The Great Eastern joined the Terrible and Falbourg at the ren- dezvous. The Albany had hooked the cab! previous to coming up, and lost it, with tw: miles of grappling rope. August 13 and 14 — Drifting. August 15.—Mr. Canning being satisfied, by the strain on the dynamometer, that the cable was hooked, at | o’clockeverything was made ready to let go a large buoy, with veering rope attached. Here the first disaster occurred, the splice between the grappling rope and the buoy rope having drawn. Fortunately noone was Drifting August 16.

Heart's Contgnt, Sept. 2—The Atlantic cable of last year was picked up this (Sunday) morning at 4.40 o’cleck, in latitude 51 52, long- itude 36 03. The eplice was made and the cable lowered at7 a.m. The Great Eastern is now seven hundred miles from here, paying out. Everything is going on well, and they expect to reach here on Saturday next. NEGRO MAN SHOT.—A tournament came off last Wednesday on the farm of Mr. See, six or seven miles east of Warrenton, and atter the contest for the ring, the company Ted to the house of Mr. C. E. Kent, in the neighbor- bood, to crown the queen and have a ball. Between 11 and 12 o'clock at night, two negro men, the hired seryantsof Mr. Kent, came to town on horses belonging to twoof the com- pany, for the alleged purpose of getting a fid- dler who coula make better music than the one playing for the company to return with them. They were pursued by Robert Martin and Eddie Wooden, the owners of the horses, and overtaken at a shanty on Winchester st. One of them, named Nenry Taylor, formerly the slave of Aldridge James, was shot b young Wooden. The ball entered the le: side of his back, and striking the seventh rib glanced around the body, following the course of the ribs, and lodged in the muscies of the abdomen a few inches above the groin. The ball was easily extracted by Drs. Ward and Chilton, and itis their opinion that it did not penetrate the cavity of the abdomen. It is therefore expected that Henry will soon re- cover from the injury inflicted. Messrs. Mar- tin and Wooden seemed to be laboring, we un- derstand, under the impression that the negroes intended stealing their horses. But the negroes state that they were directed by Willie Tomp- kins to take any horses at the rack to come af- ter the fiddler, and that they had no other in- tent than to serve the company. Warrants have been issued for the arrest of Martin and Wooden. and we presume the matter will be judicially in yestigated.— Warrenton Indez.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 2—A prayer meeting and conference of delegates was held to-nigh in the rooms of the Union State Oentral Com- mittee, on Chestnat street. The which were capable of holding about a hundred per- sons, were crowded, some ladies being present. Senator Harris, of New York, presiged, and opened the proceedings with a few appropriate remarks. esaid (bey bad assembled in this city from various parts of the coun’ bo at- tend & convention. the results of which might affect essentially. if not vitally, the welfare of this distracted country. It was therefore ap- propriate that on the evening of the Christian Sabbath they should meet together to commend that country to God, whe had so signally fa- vored the country in the trials through which it bad passed, and plead with God that as the country has pow entered on expected trials it would not be deserted by Him. He closed by announcing that prayer would now be offered by the Rey. Dr. Newman, of Louisiana. Dr. sseegy he good reading & portion of the ecripture, fe up & prayer asking. among other things, that men would be to rule over the country who would be void of pride and egotism and ambition, and particu- larly of partisan prejudice. Afver prayer, Senator Harris, in view of the fact that those present were personally stran- gers to each other, gave & general invitation to such as desired to address the meeting. Mr. Eaton. of Memphis, was the first to respond to the invitation. His principal idea was the individual responsibility of man to God, irrespective of all intermediate ol whetber the Government or the church. The church in the South bas been the soul and con- scienee of the rebellion, and the clergy there were still busy making the same argument as they did before the war, and teaching that the negro was lower than man. ne Rev. Mr. Conway, late Assistant Com- mussioner of the Freedmen’s Burean. next fol- lowed with prayer, in which he asked wisdom tor the rulers of the country, and especially for the President of the United States, that he should be prevented from deing mischief and taught to do right; that his heart should be softened by the spirit of love and turned from ‘the error of his ways and made a righteous magistrate, 80 that sbould not be afraid to meet his God. fervent amen.) He also asked a blessing on the President's advisers, for he feared that many of them were going astray. He would not prey fcr vengeance, but for justice and mercy; still, if judgment was necessary, let the ni mn be scourged. Senater Lane, of Ind., was the mex: speaker. False prophets, he said, were ig “ Peace, peace,’ when there was od gage a T breth- im the South day ren were being slaughbtere: by day and hour by bour.

Even recently, in the neighboring State of Maryland, men of God kneeling at the altar were slaughtered by ruffian bands, led on by that same wild spirit, led on by the institution ofslavery. He acknowledged that the coun- try owed much tothe pewsyaper press, not- withstanding the eignal defection of those clerical teachers to whom they bad Jooked in tumes past with deference and respect. If the Government was to be saved, it would be by the interference of Providence, and by the ac- tion of the noblest populace that ever inhab- ited God's footstool. Their politicians were in tbe main faithful, honest and true. For himself and for his household, they would be found standing on the great platform enuncia- ted by the Declaration of Inaependence and in the sermon on the mount, that great utterance which is yet toredeem a world that now lays in darkness and sin Mr. Strong, of St. Louis, and Mr. Maynard, member of Congress from Tennessee, riefly addressed the meeting: then Lieut. Gov. Bross, of 111., led the meeting in prayer, after which, the Rey. Mr. Conway added something which had not occurred to him before. Mr. Mullins, of the Tennessee slature, next addressed the meeting ina inco- herent style. He was followed by the Rey. Dr. Newman, of New Orleans, who remarked that this was the first occasion in the his’ of the country when a great political con yen- tion was preceded by a prayer-meeting. The fact was more interesting as the meeting had been improvised and not preconcerted. He believed in his beart of nearts that this was a reli ‘truggie. He had lived long enough th to know that all thi 4 ime princi- ples of religious liberty were involved. Those who do preach Christianity in the South with simplicity and power were marked men, to be shot, stabbed, or clubbed. Whenever a church was built there dedicated to God and to loy- alty, that church was subjected to the matches of disloyalty, rebellion, and slavery. His brethren in churches which he had built had been shot down and now slept in martyr- dom. In the bodys ng in which they were en- gaged they must successful, or religious literty would ge down in the South. He deeply regretted to say that those who were in power favored the restriction of religious speech. The man who had the greater power in the country had said to nimself: “You and your brethren are not wanted.” That individual was now exercising a it influence for evil in the lana; but he believed that God was selecting the sheep from the goats, was drawing the line of demarkation; ‘was testing the line of Gilead, and those whom he addressed were the chosen band. He prayea that they might live to see the day w! the great principles they cherished should be uni- ereally triumphant Mr. mer, of Tenn., was the next sj He denounced the Presideat as a pu’ dis- grace and an outrage to the decency of the na- on. &s a man who feared and respected the institutions of the country. Mr. Tucker, of N.C; the Rey. J. W. Hun- nicut, of Va., and Mr. Winds, of Tenn., fol- lowed: and the proceedings were closed with prayer by the Rey. Mr. , of Tenn. er. THE PRESIDENTIAL Dinner 1x New Yorx. The dinner given at Delmonico’s on Wednis- day evening was probably the most elegant and expensive affair of the kind ever enjoyed by so large a party in this country. When the committee of citizens hav: of the presidential reception had rmined on a state banquet, they ordered, at Delmonico’s 14th street place, a dinner fortwe hundred and fifty, with the direction thatit should be the best that could be gotten uP. No limit was laced as to the eost of the dinner or wines, e are informed that the dinner actually cost am or one hundred dollars for each plate. N.Y.
