. 13, 1861. Sir: --I have the honor to announce that the Viceroy of Egypt has again shown his good will to the U. S. by directing the Captain of the port of Alexandria to exclude all vessels bearing an unrecognized flag from the harbors of Egypt. Instructions to this effect, I am informed by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, were issued about two weeks ago to consequence of a suggestion addressed to His Highness by their Consulate General. At an interview which I had with him on the 3d instant, at Cairo, His Highness also assured me that no privateer in the service of the domestic enemies of the United States will be allowed to be flitted out or to bring in any port of its dominions. The following passages, translated from a note sent me by his Excellency Nalar Bey, in behalf of the Viceroy, show that in the facilities for obtaining Egyptian cotton our manufacturers are placed on an equal footing with those of Great Britain. The note is dated October 18, and is in reply t
Ranaway.--$10 reward. --Ranaway from the subscriber, on the 3d Inst., my slave woman Parthena. Had on a dark brown and white calico dress. She is of a ginger bread color medium size; the right fore-finger shortened and crooked, from a whitlow. I think she is harbored somewhere in or near Duval's addition. For her delivery to me I will pay $10. de 6--ts G. W. H. Tyler.
e family, and who placed them at a boarding school. Here they remained, and on account of pressing business engagements the father was unable to visit his offspring. Time wore on, and the breaking out of the Southern rebellion cut off all communication between parent and children.--Some three weeks since the lad, Silas Omohundro, was taken seriously ill with the typhoid fever, and, in spite of the exertions of skillful physicians and the tender solicitude of his guardian, he died on the 4th instant. Information of the lad's death was sent to General Wool, at Fortress Monroe, with the request that he would forward it to the father at Richmond. It is not known whether the message was received or not as no reply has yet been returned. The only relative present at the funeral was the Rev. Mr. Henson, of the Baptist Church, Broad and Brown streets, who was not even aware of the presence of the children in Philadelphia until he heard of the death of the boy. The funeral was very largel
y Dear Friend: --I have just seen Captain Legarde, of the fishing smack Wild Duck — He was captured 1st December, on the west and of cat Island. He has been a prisoner on the Massachusetts until the 12th, when himself and twelve other fishermen were released, their vessels being confiscated, in retaliation for the Lincoln fishing-smacks the Confederates have captured off Cedar Keys, belonging to Key West. Capt. Legarde reports that a large number of troops arrived at Ship Island on the 4th. The steamship Constitution arrived with the 17th and 26th Massachusetts regiments, and a regiment from Connecticut--2,600 men in all; and on the day he left, the transport ships Great Republic, King Fisher, and New World, arrived with 2,000 more, and general cargoes of army supplies; also, the steam transports Connecticut, and Atlantic, with two regiments from Massachusetts and one from Maine. The forces on the island, when he left, were about 8,000 men, and 30,000 more troops were exp
A Yankee Canard --A letter from Havana, received in New York, mentions a rumor that the steamer Vanderbilt, which arrived there from New Orleans, had on board Messers. Hunter, of Virginia, and Souls, of Louisiana, as Confederate Ministers to Europe, and adds that they would embark the next day (5th inst.) on the British mail steamer Clyde, for England. The story needs confirmation.
ed a parole not to bear arms against the Southern Confederacy.--This they consented to do in preference to an indefinite detention on board. Capt. Lyons was thirteen days aboard the Sumter, during which he was treated with the utmost kindness by both officers and crew. Of her armament or number of men he is not communicative — his parcel of honor especially forbidding any information on this point. Released from confinement. We learn from the Louisville (Ky.) Journal, of the 7th inst., that the two Newport gentlemen, H. G. Helm, Esq., and Robert Maddox, Esq, arrested by the order of General Mitchell, appeared before Judge Ballard of Louisville, on Tuesday last, and were by him discharged, there being no charge against them. Wm. B. Glaves, ex-Sheriff of Harrison county, and Perry Skerritt, Clerk of the some county, who were arrested at Cynthiana some two months since, suspected of sympathizing with the rebels, and sent to Camp Chase, near Columbus, Ohio, have been r
York journals of late dates. From their columns we make up the following summary of news: The Bogus Union Convention of North Carolina--how it Originated. Some time since there appeared in this paper resolutions purporting to be passed by a Convention of Unionists at Hatteras Inlet, which Convention, it was intimated, largely represented the feelings of the population in that State, it being attended by delegates from forty-five counties. The New York Sun, (a Union paper,) of the 10th inst., however, pronounces the whole affair to be a farce. This it does on the authority of a private letter received in New York, dated Camp Wool, Hatteras Inlet, Nov. 30, which says: As for the Union Government in N. Carolina, I fear it is nothing but a big farce. The resolutions which you no doubt have read in the papers, began with something like this: "We, the people of North Carolina, &c."--Now, the fact is, the whole of the said people amounted in all to about 120 Hatteras fishers
ken fright at the lynching of Clark, which occurred there a few weeks ago. "There are now," says that paper, "not more than ten or fifteen left in our city. In Chicago there are over 800 of them, and there they are employed in all manner of occupations — as waiters, barbers, hack drivers, stewards, porters, etc. Here there is not one employed as a waiter, nor as a porter, nor as a hack driver, and but three or four as barbers." Archbishop Hughes. From the New York Tribune, of the 12th inst., we clip the following paragraph: The arrival of Archbishop Hughes in London is announced. He reached that city on the 21st ult., and went to Paris the next day. During his brief stay in London, as the Tablet informs us, he visited several influential personages. The same journal adds that the purpose of this visit to Europe is not known. We learn, however, upon very good authority, that the country to which Mr. Seward has really given him a secret mission is Spain. There, it is
Sad case of sympathy — death of the son of a Richmond merchant. --We copy the following paragraph from the Philadelphia Press, of the 12th instant: Some three years since, a gentleman named Omohundro, a wealthy merchant of Richmond, Va., sent to Philadelphia to be educated two of his younger children, a brother and sister. The children were committed to the care of A. W. Rand, Esq., a friend of the family, and who placed them at a boarding school. Here they remained, and on account of pressing business engagements the father was unable to visit his offspring. Time wore on, and the breaking out of the Southern rebellion cut off all communication between parent and children.--Some three weeks since the lad, Silas Omohundro, was taken seriously ill with the typhoid fever, and, in spite of the exertions of skillful physicians and the tender solicitude of his guardian, he died on the 4th instant.
