CHARLESTON. 8. C., suly, 12, 1870. ‘The United States steamer Quinnedang, which has just arrived from the Seuth Atlantic squadron, is ‘ie first of the vessels which has performed the three years? cruise on a foreign station, agreeably with ae orders recently promulgated by the Navy Depart- ment. The Quinnebang was put in commission at New 4 “York on the 17th July, 1867, and saited for her station on the 3lst August of the same year. During the three years which has ¢. Meparture from the United visited the following ports:—Madeira, Portogrande, tsland of st. Vincent; Rio Janeiro, Montevideo, Buenos Ayres. On the coast of Alrica:—Cape Town, Little Fish Bay, Begguela, St. Paul de Loando, Kas- semba, Ambriz, Kabenda, Londona, Black Point and Marjumba, Ascension, back to Rio, Montevideo, Buenos Ayres, up the Parana to Rosario, Corrientes, thence to Coloria and again to Montevideo, which port she left on the Sth of April last, homeward bound touching at Bahia, Pernambuco, Para, St. Thomas ana this.port. In Madeira the Quinnebang ‘Was quarantined for three days, owing to the ru- mored prevalence of cholera in the city of Nea York. Madeira is too well known to need description. The only change 13 in the climate, which has been rendered somewhat unhealthy by the intreduction of the sugar cane to replace the vine destroyed by the blight, But as the new growth of vines were producing a wine of an equal if not of a superior quality than that yielded beiore the grape disease, 1t ig kely that the islanders will again substatute the vine for the cane, to induce the invalid visitors to return to their old haunts, from whence they were driven by the etfects of the cane. St. Vincent was as bleak and barren as ever, Though an twportant coating depot for the various European steamship lines plying between that con- nent aud the South Atlantic, There, too, there is progress in this, that fresh water can new be sup- plied on demand, owing to a condensing apparatus. Formerly the islanders of St. Vineent depended for ieir supply on the isiand of St Antonio, or on the bountyof Heaven, Rio Janeiro has also its improvements in the American tramways, ferries and ‘Graham's Ux- ehange,” where the various drinks 80 well Known to our countrymen are tobe had in the latest United Biates etyle. Montevideo was hardly recoguizable. Four years Of prosperity, the result of the Paraguayan war, and tne consequent increase of vessels calling there, and the demand for supplies for tue adied armies had thrownain the city such an abundance of capitat, Wiich had been well invested in improvements of real estate, Uiat Montevideo can boast at present of some of the prettiest residences, both city aud guirtas, that can pe found in any part of the world. Her public markets in particular excel in arenitec- tural beauty, cieanliness and ventilativa, any that I have everseen, Here, too, an American governed an “exchange” in the drinking ae. An American twamway and water works have beea constracted hy te iIndeiatigable and go-ahead Don knrico Fyan, one of the most enterprising men im South America, The latter work was under Lhe dirccuion of Mr, New- man, an English civil engineer, Mr. Pealer, an American, beung the contractor. Buenos’ Ayies, with tis roads obstracted by wrecks, coatinues the same, bul there is an im- provement in the goveryinent, d to President Sarmiento, who has introduced American retorms engendered while in the United States. The Qaim nebang’s Orsi visit th was owing to the seizure of the American steamer Zeno- bia, neid in possession of the Brazilians, who ignored several demands to relinquish her, but aeadily acquiesced to the military and left under pro- test. The Quinnbang returned to Montevideo to find a revolution in full blast. Some sailors and ma- Fines were landed to protect the Custom House. The excitement caused by the alarm of tire in New York On Sundays during the reign of the volunteer fire- meu will give @ correct idea of the acene in the streets of Montevideo during the revolutionary ex From Montevideo we sailed for Cape Town and tested the saiety aiforded to iis anchorage ‘by the new breakwater. The military and ‘the civil authorities vied with each other in their attentions and hospitaliuies. To the Governor, Sir P. E, Woodhouse; Mr. Edgar L. Layard, Sir William Hodges, Judge Pringle und Colonel Dunn, of tae Ninety-niath, and numerous other gentiemen, our thanks are due, At the Governor’s ball a large bou- quet was seen walking off with a United States oiticer, At Little Fish Bay but little fish were found, though a Yankee schooner caused a‘fariar to be caught” in the shape of a muss with the Portuguese autnorities. There we found an innovation—a rum mill, which was successful, dae to the high taxes, which have driven the Auericau supplies Irom the African market. The short stay in Benguela did not admit of notes being taken. At St. Paul de Loando tie American Consul had established trade with the river Coanzo, the produce of whieh was transmitted to the Uniied States. We then learned that our government con- templated removing the provision depot—a wise measure—else tle ants, 80 numerous and voractous, would have saved the trouble of ae so. We viewed Ambriz and anchored off Kassemba, ® trading depot first fuunded ame- rican merenants ani abandoned by them at the breaking out of our war. It now sesses several foreign factories, 1s an important point for shipping ivory, india rubber, copper and various other African productions. Though the flags of France, England, Portugal and Holland wave over the factories, that of the ilrst founders, the Ameri- cans, was non est. The Congo drove us seaward, and, on our endeavor to view its coast, risked going ashore on ashval of late formation. We visited Kabenda next, and the morning fol- Jowing our arrival we were assailed by Africans of every hue, bearing all kinds of salable animals, birds, &c. These fellows are keen bargain drivers, on several occasions having recelved the money previous to the delivery of the merciandize, they ‘vamoosed” to their native shore, leaving the pur- chaser in the lurch. ‘The King of tne district is a fon he It necessitated, tor political reasons w ignable, that an ini yew should be bad with his Majesty. An officer was deiatled who, ignoring court etiquette, apphed to an English- man for required information. It vecatne, there- fore, necessary to equip the Englishman with a bot- tie of rum as @ passport to the royal presence. His Majesty was but litue dressed, yet it did noi spoil his appetite for ram, which made the interview sa- tsiactory to all parties. His Majesty pledged that the entente cordiale should never be distarbed. From Kabenda we went in search of Malemba, which has disappeared from the coast, though continued to be marked on the chart as @ trading post. Tweive amiies beyond this we came to an anchorage and trading post called Londano, not marked on the chart, yet possessing a larger trade than any of the previous ports visited except St. Paul ae ano. Three vessels were loadi:g here. From the lunch and drinks partaken of on shore we jnaged that the supply was plentifui and frequently replenished, From Londano we proceeded tO Biack Point, one of the best anchorages on the coast, and where the climate appeared io auect the Europeans the least. It was @ busy trading day, The Africans were weil and cleanly dressed. They sat outside o1 the factory, Waiting to be called in turn. Each brought out his an) principally india rubber and malachite, The former Was closely inspected, as to quality, by the @brewd dealer, and aiso cut, for the purpose of dis- covering whether weight was given to it by the fill- tng in of sand cr other material. The Africans are ‘up to all the dodges of free trade. The bargain con- cluded, payment is made tn calicos and clotus, and ends by the Lottie being presented for the final bonus rum, Without which no bargain is consummated. Hence, formerly, the American superiocity in goods, %¢, rum.

Cooke nearly all the Washington newspaper correspondents, together with gentiemen of the local press and other invited guests, numbering in all 125 persons, yeaterday en- Joyed a river excursion and banquet. A band of music accompanied the party and all expressed themselves delizhted with the entertainments, which were of a varied and amusing character. The Wordy Power of the Senate. The reports of the Congressional Globe show that the debates during the last session of Congress, es- pecially In the Senate, oceupy more space than heretofore lor the same length of tine, General Hancock and the President. ‘The qneation as to whether or not General Hancock, whenin Washington in 1863, was guilty of rudeness to General Grant, thereny “ansolving the President from regarding General Hancock's preferences” 48 set forth in the letter of General Sherman, published some time since, is likely to be revived by the pub- cation of a correspondence between Hancock and ex-Governor Fianders, Mayor of Now Orleans, Gen- eral Hancoek wrote to Mr. Flanders some time ago, enclosing the Assoctated Press despateh of May 22a giving an account of a strect meeting at which General Grant said, in friendly way, ‘‘Good morn. ing, Hancock,’ and extended his hand, to which Mancock made no reply, but merely touched his hat and walked on. Mr. Flanders was asked a3 & Matter of justice to relate what transpired on the occasion referred to in this despatch. His reply 18 in effect that he remembers the oceasion well; that he was in conversation with General Grant on Loufsiana affairs, opposite Jay Cooke's bauk, and that General Hancock's passing at the time was a curious comeldence, which impressed the occurrence on his memory; that the greeting on both sides was free, natural and courteous; that nelther party came within thirty feet of the other, and consequently there was no attempt to extend the hand; and that, ander the errcumstances which he knew existed, the impression made on his mind at the time was that the meeting was exceptionally Pleasant. Had there been the slightest discourtesy or disrespect he would have noticed it, The Han- cock party lay great stress on this denial, from the Tact that Flanders and Hancock are political and personal antipodes, Flanders is a strong radical and was removed from the Governorehip of Louist- ana by Hancock. ANOTHER BLOODY SABBATH. The Eficet cf Jourdan’s Resignation—The Sa- loons Open—Heavy Arreste—Cutting Aifrays, &e.—A Bad Sign. The resignation of Superintendent Jourdan, who has for two weeks caused the Excise law to be rigidly enforced on tie Sabbath and thereby saved the city from the disgraceful scenes 80 common on previous Saturday and Sunday nights, seems to have had its effect upon the dispensers of bad liquors, who dis- regard the law, and the twenty-four hours ending this morning at haif-past twelve shows a heavy re- cord of crime. In many precincts yesterday scores of barrooms were open in full blast, and the rear rooms resounded with the druuken voices of their patrone.
