ENGLAND. ~- Noutral Rights=The Hornet and Alabama. LONDON, Oct. 22, 1869. The Standard (tory organ), referring to the action of the United States in preventing the departure of Mlibustering expeditions for Cuba, argues that how- @ver excellent the conduct of the Americans may be in detaining the steamer Hornet it cannot be a prac- tical example for the future, still less a cause of feproach for the past. The whole basis on which ‘the case of the Alabama rests is that she was not @uch a vessel as the Hornet.

TENNESSEE. End of the Senatorial Fight—Ex-President Johnson Defeated—Henry Cooper, of Davil- son, Elected. NASAVILLE, Oct. 22, 1869, This morning ex-President Johnson and Heny Cooper bad a friendly interview, they having bem intimate friends for many years, Cooper has alwajs been a strong Union man and a partisan of Jolinso\. The two came to an understanding that Coopt should go into nomination. The Legislature, in joint convention, met at noon when it was perceived that the opposition to John son had combined their forces, Etheridge, Browt and Fletcher withdrew, and their supporters, com prising the ultra radicals and ex-secesstonists, con centrated their strength upon Cooper, who wat elected at the first ballot, the vote standing—Coope) 56 and Johnson 51. When the result was announce¢ it was recetved with tremendous demonstrations 0} applause, minglea with expressions of disapproba tion. At the present moment the excitement in the city is intense, Mr. Johnson expresses himself satisfied that his personal friend ia elected, instead of an opponent. The Feeling in Washington—Bellef that Andy Johnson will Manipulate the New Senator. WASHINGTON, Oct. 22, 1869. The defeat of Andrew Johnson for the United States Senate occasions a good deal of surprise and disappointmer t here to-day. The strength displayed by the ex-President yesterday ted both his frends) and enemies to suppose that his success to-day was a certainty; but the almost unknown Cooper turns up the winning man, and Andy is shoved aside until the next vacancy occurs. It is be- lNeved here by many sound fepublicans that Johnson’s defeat is a loss to the radical party instead of again. Ben Butler, for instance, says had Andy been elected he could have done no harm; he would make @ great nolse and sensation, but nobody would mind him, With Cooper, however, the case is different, Cooper, it is said, will be in the hands of Andy, who will manipulate him skil- fully and carry out his own plana much more oficiently than had he obtained a seat in the Senate himself, There 1s no doubt as to Cooper's Unionism during the war, and on that subject there is @ plea- sant little story that probably will be remembered by those who were in Nashville during the war. While Cooper was State Judge he was seized by a party of rebels and carried into captivity for serving under Andy Johnson in that capacity. Johnson, who was Military Governor at the time, immediately seized upon the person of a prominent and wealthy citizen of Nashville and hela him as a hostage. Word was sent of this mancuvre to the captors of Cooper, who were glad enough at Andy’s sugges- tion to exchange prisoners, and thus Cooper was released. Sketch of Henry Cooper, United States Sena- tor Elect from Tennesee. After a very exciting contest the Tennessee Lagis- lature yesterday elected Mr. Henry Cooper United States Senator, in place of Mr. Fowler, whose term expires in 1871, defeating ex-President Johnson by a vote of 55 to 51. The result was not altogether unex- pected. Some time ago the name of the Senator elect was mentioned in connection with the posi- tion, the antagonism of Etheridge and Johnson being too intense to admit of their supporters coalescing upon the one or upon the other. Indeed, Mr, John- son’s friends stood by him to the last, when they were defeated by the joint votes of the extreme Tadicais and ex-secessionists, which strange combi- nation of antipodal elements was brought about by mutual hatred of Johnson. It seems, however, after all that the ex-President isnot so badly beaten. If he failed of an election he at least had the consolation of witnessing the triumph of one of his warmest personal friends ‘and the ignominious rout of his opponents. The Sen- ator elect, Mr. Cooper, is well known in Tennessee. He was born in Maury county, in that State, during the early part of the present century, and 1s now a man tn the prime of life. He is a brother of Edward Cooper, well known to our readers as vhe secretary of President Johnson during his administration. He moved to Bedford county at an early age, studied law and was admitted to the bar. After a few years his practice became large, and he was known as one of the ablest lawyers in the State, About the year 1850 Mr. Cooper married, and dur- ing the same year he first entered into political life. At this time he was elected to the State Legisiature by a majority of some 500 votes, after a most excit- ing contest. At the next election he was opposed by the most popular and influential man in the county, and his defeat by several hundreds was regarded as @ matter of absolute certainty. Mr. Cooper, however, entered upon the canvass with at energy and determination. He imparted to 18 Supporters the same spirit he possessed, and the result was that, upon the largest vote ever poiled in Bedford up to that time, he was returned to the Legislature by a majority of twenty. In poli- tics he was ® whig, and, indeed, never has voted a democratic ticket that we are aware of. When the rebellion broke out he aid not hesi- tate a moment to avow his devotion to the Union, and his unalterable purpose never to give his sup- ort to the secession cause. During the entire war 18 Course Was consistent with his stanch Union- ism, 80 that he will appear before the Senate of the United States with a war record as acceptable as that of Senator Sumner, Upon ex-President Johnson being appointed Gov- ernor of Tennessee, soon after the fall of Nashville, he tendered a State Judgeship to Mr. Cooper, who accepted the offer and served in that position until 1866, when he resigned for the purpose of accepting a chair in the Faculty of the Cumberland University of Lebanon. His career on the bench was most honorable. Several times during his term he endeavored to re: but Governor Brownlow, although aware of his conservatism, declined to receive the resignation, but insisted upon his retain- ing the position. In one of his messages to the Legis- lature Brownlow referred to Judge Cooper in the highest terms of praise, expressing his earnest re- gret that the State Judiciary should: be deprived of 80 pure and upright a member. This encomium was all the more flattering when it is remembered that the Judge was an openly avowed Reece opponent of the Governor and looked with horror at his ad- ministrative acts, At the recent election in Tennessee Mr. Cooper was the conservative nominee for the State Senate from the Eighteenth district of Tennessee and was elected by a large majority. He is a gentleman of ability and is looked upon as 4 risifg man in his State. Of course we would have preferred to see Mr. Johnson elected; but we have no doubt that Mr. Cooper will make @ most acceptable Senator. WAVAL INTELLIGENCE. Lieutenant Commander B. J.

SUDDEN ILLNESS OF THOMAS EWING, SR. WASHINGTON, Oct. 22, 1869. The New Minister to China—Entorcing Burlingame Treaty, Mr. Low, the new Minister to China, has informed the government that he will arrive in this city speedily. The gentleman is now occupied in com- Pleting the disposition of his private business. Upon reaching here he will receive his instructions at the earliest moment, and will thence proceed to his dis- tant field of duty by way of Europe and the Asiatic route through Egypt. The object of Mr. Low taking this route will be co afford him an opportanity to meet and consult with Mr. Burlingame, with a view to having the benefit of his experierce in the affairs of China, and to set at work effectively the practical operation of the new relation existing between that empire and the United States, Tt is understood that the instructions to the new minister will be based upon the Burlingame treaty,“and it will be the object of this government to put that important instrument into force in every particular, and let the Chinese government see that the treaty was something more than a mere form, Disqualification of One of the Virginia Senators, It ts said to have been discovered that the newly elected Senator from Virginia, Mr. Johnston, as well as Mr. Gibson, one of the representatives from that State, 18 still laboring under the disabilities imposed by the fourteenth amendment. The amendment was ratified after the passage of the act by Congreas relieving the disabilities of Messrs. Johnston and Gibson, and it is asserted that the act f Congress, approved April 1, 1869, removing the dis- abilities 1mposed by the fourteenth amendment, fails ‘o embrace in its terms the cases of Messrs. Johnston ind Gibson. Removal of the Capital—Opposition to Fur- ther Appropriations for Washington Im. provements. The project of removing the capital out West yould appear to have more strength than Washing- bnians seem to believe. The Western members re pretty well united on the subject and in its avor. From all that Ican learn here this evening ‘is very likely that a trial of strepgth between the emovers and anti-removers will come up at the next ession of Congress. An appropriation of $3,500,000 3 to be asked for to put up new butldings for the \tate and War Departments, and Western members wre determined, it is said, to fight the proposition at very stage. The Western men assert that every ad- itional dollar expended on federal works in Wash- ngton will be made an argument against removing he capital, and they are determined to furnish no hore arguments on that side. Ben Butler said to- tight that sensible men would govern themselves as holding or selling out property here by the test te on the appropriations for the new War and Sate Departments. The Supreme Court. In the Supreme Court of the United States to-day fae case of John Maguire against Mary {. Tyler et a@. was argued On @ motion wo reform the judgment eitry in the cause, the defendants in error claiming that & is in violation of the powers and jurisdiction the court—the mandate commanding the Supreme ur of Missouri to affirm a judgment of the Com- monPleas of St. Louis in respect to questions of loca law, which the Supreme Court had reversed ‘asm error. P Excitement in the Sapreme Court—Sudden Ailness of Ex-Secretary Ewing while Ad- dressing the Court. There was a scene of much interest and alarm in tt Supreme Court room this forenoon. Mr, Phil- lis had opened the argument in a case in which ‘Tiomes Ewing, Sr., had been counsel for twenty- fe years, and was followed by Mr. Car- lise. Mr. Ewing had listened with more than umal attention to Mr. Phillips, and seemed to be mich excited by that gentleman’s argument, and M. Ewing, in reply to Mr. Phillips, spoke with mpre energy than he had displayed for years, Ater speaking twenty minutes he complained of indisposition, and asked permission, which was plomptly granted, to sit while continuing his argu- ment. He attempted to proceed with it, but fell from h& chair unconscious. The court instantly adjournd. The oficers of the court and counsellors bresent hurried to his side, and the judges soon approaaed with marked anxiety to ascer- tain. hs condition, Cushions were quickly brough’ from tne benches, of which a bed was mide for himon the floor. In the course of fifteen ninutes his consciousness revurned, when ne was renoved to the room of the Clerk of the Court, Physicans were summoned, who pronounced the ailmen to be exhaustion of the vigor of the heart. Two oj three hours passed before that organ fully resumid its functions. In the meantime the mem- bers o/his family and other relatives were apprised of his ;ritical condition, among them his two sons, ‘Thoms and Charles, and his daughter and General Sherman, his son-in-law. His physician, Dr. Mil- ler, t-night pronounced Mr. Ewing in an improwd condition, and says that he will recover. He stilllies at the Capitol. Judge Ewing will be eighty ‘ears of age next December. At mdnight to-night Judge Ewing was still at the Capito, being too weak to be removed to his resi- dence. His physicians say, however, tnat he 1s im- provi, but his advanced age is against him, and it is eared he cannot recover. His family wad frend are still around nim. Report on the Pacific Railroad.

The report wili be submitted tthe President early next month, Inwlessness in FloridamArmed Opposition to the Internal Revenue Laws. General Kryzanowski, Supervisor of Georgia and Jorida, reports, under date of October 12, that ackson and Washingtou counties, in Florida, are uder the control of an armed mob, which has en to prevent the execution of the revenue laws, ‘he leader of this mob is one James P. Coker, who iirepresented to be a wealthy and influential man, ib bas threatened Assistant Assessor Lowe, of Mrana, with personal violence, and has chal- loged him to fight, and that officer writes tthe Supervisor thac he can only canvass his ditrict at the hazard of his life, Assessor Wison writes corroborating bis assistant’s state- mnt, The Collector of Customs at Jacksonville Fu, J. A. Dockery, writes to Supervisor Krysa- nwski that the State tax collector and his wife had ben brutally murdered in Washington county, ajoining Jackson, and that there had been seven marders in Jackson county since the 3d inst., and tht the deputy collectors and assistant assessors © internal revenue are in imminent danger. The Sipervisor has called for troops, . Clever Evasion of the Internal Revenue Law. Supervisor of Internal Revenue McDonald, who jas just been appointed to the district composed of Xansas and Arkansas, has calied the attention of the Commissioner to the fact that certain parties in his Ustrict, especially in Arkansas, are evading the givernment tax on tobacco by employing Indians tomanufacture and prepare it for market, just over th: border in the Indian territory. It appears that ths practice has been going on for over a year past, aul that large quantities of tobacco have been minufactured on which no tax was paid. It is a dificult matter to deal with, because, as the law, nov stands, the Indians are exempt from taxation, ‘and i is thought new legislation will be necessary belore the evil can be remedied, The whites who enployed the Indians did 90 deliberately, tt seems. knowing that the Indians were not embraced within the scope of the law; but they have managed it in Such @ way as to keep themselves outside the pen- allies against defrauding the revenue. Resignation of Supervisors. Supervisor Smith, of the Western district of New York, end Supervisor Southworth, of the Western district of Pennsylvania, having resigned, ex-Sena- tor John O'Donnell, of New York, and General J. B. Sweetzer, of Pittsburg, haye been nominated by Commissioner Delano to fill the vacancies. Pay of American Diplomats. It 18 not true, as recently published, that Minister Washburne hag applied to the State Department for $15,000 in gold for contingent expenses, The facts are, a8 Obtained from an official source, that Minis- ter Washburne, Minister Curtin, and Mr. Moran, First Secretary of the United States Legation at Lon- don, recently severally applied to the government to allow them each between $300 and $400 additional for office rent.

There is considerable talk just now in Washington circles about an afaire @amour between a certain young gentleman connegted with one of the foreign legations here and acertain colored young lady, who 1s described as extremely beautiful and attrac- tive. The young gentleman, the story goes, bocome 80 completely bewitched that he escorted the lady to public places, and was not only seen promenading with her on the streets, but even in her company at the theatre. The lady, it seems, bears so little trace of her African origin that unieas very closely scanned she would pass for a white; hence the ease with which she gained admission to the theatre undetected. You have heard of the three colored gentlemen who smuggled themselves into the National theatre here a few weeks ago and were compelled to leave on being discovered. Well, 1t turns out that the trio had another object in that visit to the theatre than the one generally assigned. They went there as much for the purpose of “spot- Ung’ the beautiful young colored lady in the company of her distinguished admirer as of testing their right to admission on a white quality, The young lady was there that very night, and the circumstance became known to agreat many respec- table white ladies who were acquainted with the gentleman accompanying her, The next morning the affair was in the mouths of all the gossips, male and femaie, and the sensation that resulted was so unpleasant to the gentleman who constituted the hero of the scandal that he fled from this city to New York for protection. Altogether it is about the largest socal scandal of the season. Port Charges In Porto Rico. An oficial letter says:—The charge tor a health visit to vessels arriving at Porto Rico has been in- creased to $6 50, Spanish coin, instead of $4 50; and also ordered that vessels which come alongside the quay will have to pay one dollar for each mast the vessel may have.

(Washington (Oct. Sy correemundence Baltimore ut A careful canvass of the opinions of the Cabinet regarding tne C©uban question develops the fact that Secretary Fish and Attorney General Hoar are the only members who are opposed to a speedy re- cognition of the new republic, and they are only opposed to it on the ground that it may complicate our negotiations with Great Britain relative to the Alabama claims, They are earnest sympathizers with the Cuban cause, and if they could devise any plan by which they would be able to advance tt without prejudice to matters already pending they would hearty embrace It. General Belknap, the new Secretary of War, ts known to be as ardent a friend of the Cubans as his predecessor, Secretary Kawiins, whose dying words were almost an earnest appeal to Postmaster Gene- ral Creswell to use all his influence in their behaif. General Rawlins bad previously prepared a lengthy statement of his views on the subject, which in- cluded numerous important statisucs, and which he submitied to the Cabinet. It is known thatit ex- erted @ great influence over the deliberations of that body, and if he lived it would doubtiess have finally culminated tn the recognition of the bellige- rent rights of the Cespedes government, This document 18 now in the possession of Seore- tary Fish. It also contains a refutation of the forgeries perpetrated by the Spanish authorities which Induced Senator Sumner to make the state- ment that Cubans have not yet liberated their slaves. Considering all these circumstances, the friends of Cuba here feel confident that the government will soon devetop a definite and favorable policy towards them. They assert, and it io peneranly believed in oficial circies that the assertion is true, that the question of recognition ts merely a matter of time, and they believe that t will occur before Congress meets. The statement sent by your correspondent rela- tive to the spurious electrotype issue of seven-thirty bonds has caused some comment.
