It is erpected that the two new regiments of white cavalry authorized by the Teoent act of Congress will soon be organised. Freedmente Aduirs in Loulsiann—The Exhibit Not Very Finttering, The Commissioner of the Freedmen's Bureaa has re ceived a report from Major General Sheridan, Acting Assistant Commissioner of Freedmen’s Affurs in the State of Lowinana, from which the following extracts in reference to matters of general \nterest are taken, Of the crops the General says: — The *eontinued and Porianen are Bight, dy Bounce and whip and MAewere fréapeus ja State, The total suspension of the issue of rations will cause much distress among # limited class of people in this State—via, :, the wives and children of those entered the service of the United States after the cap- ture of New Orleans, and who were either killed during the war or have died since. There are quite a large umber of these persons in the parishes bordering on the Red river, In all charitable appropriations by the parish authorities these people are excluded, and if their necessities are not relieved by the Bureau or some other branch of the government they must starve. ‘The time “is approaching when the contracts for expire, and new demonstrated in the experience of thia State to be well .atapted to secure the interests of both the planters and the freedmen. In nota single instance, when contracts have been made in accordance with the mode by the Bureau, basa complaint been made by either of the parties to the contract, On the other hand, when the Bureau has been ignored, complaints by both em- ployers and employ(s are frequent. The reason is obvi- ous, Both parties understand the contract when ex- Plained by the agent of the bureau, and both know that the influence of the Bureau will be thrown against the Party violating it, while in those contracts in which the Bureau is ignored a majority of the bargnins are vague and ill defined, meaning anything or nothing, and many are mere verbal agreements made without witnesses. Inpanese Merchants in Washington—Their Sayings and Doivgs. Among the distinguished arrivals at Willard’s to-night ‘are two Japanese merchant princes, Messrs. J. Noda and L. Nagai, of Yokohama, accompanied by their inter- preter, Mr. L. Oliphant, of England, Although thoy have been in this country only a few days they havo acquired considerable knowledge of the English Jan- guage, and converse quite fluently on political and na- tional topics, Shortly after their arrival here Mr. Oliphant Introduced them to the Hxnarp bureau. In conversation they seemed to be impressed with the idca that the country was in a distracted condition, and on the verge of another revolution, When they were as- sured that such was not the case they expressed much satisfaction. They spoke of the condition of their own country, and said that the present fycoon id stand against bis enemies and his dynasty would be The visit of the Japanese ambassadors to this country bad been productive of much good, and a cordial feeling of friendship was entertained by the Emperor and people of Japan in favor of the Americans. Upona reference being made to Japanese “Tommy” they smiled, and raid that ‘‘Tommy” was not his true name, but a nickname, meaping “ fond of the ladies.”” It was ‘Mf. Oliphant’s intention to have presented these distin- guished strangers, on their arrival, to Sir Frederick Bruce, the British Minister, but that official being absent the presentation wae deferred. While in the Hunarp rooms a distinguished officer in the Mexican war ad- dressed them in their native language, much to their amusement and the gratification of all observers. On account of their personal appearance many per- sons imagined them to be princes of the im- perial house of Japan, visiting this country as bearers of official communications ftom their Tycoon Telative to @ commercial treaty concluded a» short time since by the representatives of the United States, England, France and Holland, by virtue of which the people of these countries were guaranteed a more free and unembarrassed trad: with the imperial ports, In conversation with them your correspondent was in- formed that their object in visiting the national capital is to inspect the public buildings and other places of in- terest im thie vicinity. They have no official business with the State Department, but contemplate calling on the President and Secretary Seward to-morrow, merely as visitors. The Treasury, Arlington and the Capitol will ‘be visited on Friday. [tis the intention of the visitors to start for Japan on Monday next. They propose sopping en rowe at London and Paris, J. Noda, the youngest of the two, is twenty-two years of age, five feet in height, and is one of the prominent gentlemen of Japan. His comrade isa fair specimen of the race to which he belongs, being less than five feet in height, very muscular, having « keen black eye, hair as Gark as opaque, and skin of olive hue, These gentle- men are reputed very weal! ‘and are not sparing in ‘their use of ‘Uncle Samuel's" greenbacks, To them the use of our currency is & novelty, as they, having handied the solid materia! in their own country, cannot understand why Amcricans hoard gold up when their race 60 freely use it in preference to paper. Doubtless the Secretary of the Treasury will enlighten them on this point when they visit the department for the pur. pose of inquiring into our system of finance. They have formed a good impression of American institations and improvements, and bavo expressed themselves as highly gratified with their brief sojourn in this country. By @ singular coincidence, while the Japanese mer- chant princes wore in the Lireiip rooms this evening no less than three gentiemen interested in the Kanagawa consulship visited the rooms.
