OFFICIAL rAVCn OF THE STATE
DEPARTMENT.
The lamentations of the "Washington organ
or the radicals, upon being notified to du
continue the "ChrontcW furnished to the
Bute Department for the Legations, were
touching in the extreme. Such a wringing
of hands and such effusion of tears have
haruly been witnessed since the Immaculate
Trottix had occasion to use his veteran
handkerchief. AVc have no doubt that the
apostle of unadulterated radicalism, and the
champion of the downtrodden black race in
the District of Columbia, (for he is 'mum"
with regard to his colored brethren in Penn-
rylvanla,) feels wronged and outraged by be
ing deprived of the little patronage and dis
tinguished honor of holding an official rela
tion to the first department of the American
Government To touch this paragon of un
selfish patriotism in the pocket is to wound
him In very truth. 'While free and unre
strained discussion of public questions is the
undoubted right of the citizen, and the un
abridged freedom of the public press Is a time
honored and valuable American privilege,
we cannot see with what consistency the
Government Is expected to employ as Its
official organ the most abusive, the most
unscrupulous, the most unprincipled paper
in this land.
It not only permits, but it is wholly indiffer
ent to the daily slanders upon the Adminis
tration, which is faithfully carrying out the
policy which for J ears the Chronicle, aided by'
a short-hand Government paid reporter, del
uged its columns with almost siokening com
mendations; but when it comes to the point
of being represented abroad by one who con
ceives it to be lus mission to malign and
belie It at home, it would seem to be some
what inconsistent. The instincts of a
gentleman, or the high-bred notions of a
man of honor would teach any person that
when in the mistaken line of duty it is con
sidered necessary to libel the Executive and
the Government, it is the height of meanness
to receive tribute from the source it attacks.
But vilhfication and venality arc too closely
wedded In the malignant spirit of the Chron
icle for any manly or high-toned sentiment
to flourislu
It is a matter of congratulation for this
country that the embassy of the nation, its
ministers, its consuls, its charges, and all
others who hold its Bcal in other lands, upon
opening the mails which come from the cap
ital, will no longer find double-leaded articles
containing glaring falsehoods and savage as
saults upon the head of the nation; the most
contemptuous and infamous rm represent a-
tions of the Secretary of State; the most dis
torted views of the popular elections; and the
most prejudicial and partisan pictures of the
condition of affairs. The dignity of this
country requires that truth and not a bilious
party schedule should go forth 'to impress
and instruct our Legations. Take, for in
stance, tho Connecticut election. Our offi
cials abroad naturally desire to know what
a lews were involved In the canvass. During
that campaign the principal Union leaders
of that State made a direct personal appeal
to the Chronicle to stop its unjust nbuo of
Tux Fbesidrxt, and its false statements with
reference to that election, as they wefe
being used by the enemies of the Union
party with terrible effect against it.
One of the most efficient and eloquent
occupants of the stump in that State, one
who, by lils gallantry In the army and his
power of logic and vigor of statement, did as
much as any single man to effect the result,
and who openly avowed his adherence to Mr.
John son's policy, has told us that the Chroni
cle articles were tho heaviest load that Maw-
ley men had to carry; and that if an open
fight had been made against President Joiin-
son's position, Connecticut w,ould have been
wept like a hurricane for him. The Palla
iium,an influential Union organ, and second
to none in that State, distinctly asserts that by
avoiding any controversy between Congress
and The President, the election was saved
by the friends of tho latter. Yet, tho Citron
tie, knowing all the facts, deliberately claims
the election as a triumphant vindication of
radical principles ; as a successful attempt
of tho peoplo "to crush" Tub Prfjhdfnt,
and as a popular rebuke to the Presidential
policy.
Barring the morality of sustaining from
the public funds any miscreant who is so
utterly impervious to truth, we ask if it Is
wise, is it decent to use the treasure of the
country to send such an infamous catalogue
of lies to foreign nations, to mislead our
servants ? Nothing Is more essential to our
represcntatius abroad than proper Informo-
non respecting the actual condition or that
portion of the country lately in Insurrection.
If that condition is not all that Joyal men
could wish, it is certainly as gratifying as we
could expect with our kuowledgc of human
nature. No one but an idiot would expect
from a people whose armies hae "been van
quished, whose dreams hate been disap-
poiniea, anu whose wealth, has been nearh
lost in an unsuccessful struggle for inde
pendence, an extraordinary rejoicing over
their defeat, or a rapturous embrace of their
conquerors. A universal acceptance of the
position, a universal acquiescence in the
changes which war has occasioned, and com
plete submission to the authority of the Na
tional (jovernment is all that sane men could
ask. This stale of affairs does exist. Tbe
laws are obeyed, labor is generally employed,
and free institutions are not only established
but ore acceptable, industrial, commercial
and political relations, save in one Instance, are
being restored, the sublime work of reconcil
iation is advancing; tho temper of the public
mind is Improving, and upon the whole the
situation of southern affairs issiuhthatwe
may wel congratulate oursehes that the day
of genuine harmony and fraternity cannot
long be postponed. But take up the Chron
icle any day, and its columns reek with the
most lugubrious cc6unU of whippings, tnnr
ders. resistance until one absent 'from the
scene would suppose' thai rebellion had Just
begun. Every trivial fact1 Is exaggerated;
each IndividualVt of folly Is magnified; the
local disturbances are all paraded, ami while
an unduo prominence is given to every indis
cretion that may be committed among a pop
ulation of twelve millions of people, no effort
Is spared to lash the public mind Into a state
of fury, and fire tho northern heart with
hatred and revenge.
We believe that tho act of the Secretary
of State In ceasing Its official relations with
a common bcrator, and an organ that thrives
on the mischief it can make, will be hailed
as eminently wiso and judicious.
THE
FEN I AX S AND
CAMPO
BELI.O.
Some very exciting dispatches arc being
sent over the wires from Kastport, lie., in
regard to the Ferdan movement. Kiujax
and Sinxott are holding meetings at that
place, and some of the young fellows there
are "joining" for the fun of the tiling.
Yesterday morning the telegraph informed
us that "British steamers were constantly"
at Kastport, and that the "Americans were
wild" in consequence of British gunboats
opening their gun ports. Tcople were mov
ing Into Kastport from Canipo Bcllo to get
out of danger, and two British steamers had
gone seventy miles up the river (St Croix)
to St Andrews, Ac. Tills latter place Is, by
the way, situated only fourteen miles up the
river from Kastport
Campo Bello is an island about eight
miles long, directly opposite Kastport, and
forming the ocean shore of the harbor. It
is inhabited by about one thousand people,
many of whom are Americans who reside
there for fishing and seafaring purposes. It
was never fortified, and was for many cars
the residence of Admiral Owey, of the Brit
ish nay. A miniature naval station was
also kept there by the English, and tho
place affords good harborage for any num
ber of vessels.
OUR D1SPATCI1KS.
At quarter after one tht'$ morning we re
ceived a dispatch of about one hundred and
fifty words from Philadelphia, announcing
that a company or two hundred gentlemen,
representing certain interests named, in
Philadelphia, paid a visit to a certain manu
factory and witnessed a certain process, and
afterwards partook of a dinner. We do not
object to the advertisement of the business
referred to in the dispatch, nor to the fact
stated that "the company partook of a splen
did entertainment; but we do object to the
unnecessary delay exhibited every night in
sending us dispatches at midnight and after
of matters which transpired during the day
and early evening. "Will the agent of the
Associated Press do us the fat or to forward
his dispatches a little earlier?

TTIE MOVEMENT OF THE FENIANS
Although many 'of the dispatches about
tha move menU of the Fenians originate with
interested parties and. ar very ranch exagge
rated, yet wo are assured that all the reports
respecting the present action of the Fenians
tn the East are not without some good foun
ds Hon. The Government Is watchful, how
ever, and wilt not permit any oomblnatlon of
men, for any purpose whatever, to entanglo
us in new and unnecessary difficulties with
friendly rowers.
ASIATIC CIIOUUIA.
That the cholera Is at oar door Is pretty certain.
It has beea reported at Key Watt, although with a
degree of on certainty, and It Is now reported at
Halifax, on board a quarantine steamer, which la
aid to have one hundred and sixty eaies. These
last are said bow to be only ship fever a pastUeneo
that Is aa deadly as ebolera at short range, but
which does not, like tho Asiatic looorgo, spread
over a whole continent when It has once obtained a
foothold. There la talk of a geautne cue of chol
era In New Tork city; bat all tbeit reports then
may be 401)110008; wo hopo they are. We feel eon.
Ttneod, however, that ttee ramors are tho fore
runners of tho pestilence, and that It will soon be
here.
It Is meet that wo get oar bouses tn order and
make what preparations we may to receive the
unwelcome Intruder.
Washington will not escape tbe scourge onlcsi
all natural laws are to be suspended In thu lls
trlct derlog the cholera season. Daring the previ
ous visit of thle scourge to America It swept some
portions of our olty with fearful ravages. Upon the
corner of Ninth and D streets, half a stone's throw
from our office-window, thirteen died of It, and tn
various quarters where poverty and filth weee prev
alent. Oar elty-bae a much larger population than
It had at that time, and in many localities the con
ditions favorable to great mortality daring the
prevalence of the eptdemle are Infinitely worae than
ever before. Tbe nutlneas of the canal has in
creased in depth, volume, aad 1 0 tensity. In a
warm day It smells not only to Ileaveo.bat diffuses
noisome odors within breathing distance of a large
portion of tbo population of tbo city.
Tbe Centre Market la redolent of scent that are
inggesttveof the dead cart and heaty obsequies,
and the back stoma and alleys, and even the cellars
and purlieus of pretentious booses reek with pollu
tion. According to an eloquent member from Indiana,
Congress having got tho President down and
rolled over htm, proposes to held htm down and
roll over him all summer. Now, If whisky and
lager beer were a prophylactic as against cholera,
perhaps a quorum of Congreaa could fight It oat on
that lino all tammer In safety, but aa no remedy
haa been discovered that gtrea Immunity from the
cholera, we would advUe the honorable Sena,
tors and llepresentetlvee to adopt preventive aanl
tary measures aa speedily as possible.
This country haa had lour visitations of ebolera.
In June of 1831 It wai found In aa emigrant ves
sel In tbe St. Lawrence-river, It reached Quebec a
few days later, New Tork two weeks later than
Quebec, and aoon afterward casea were found In
Albany and other cities along the water lino of tbe
Middle 6tatea. In New Tork olty It then killed
3, 51 J. On tho 31 of December, 18(8, It again
reached New Tork In the emigrant ship New Tork,
having killed fourteen paawogers during the voy
age of three weeks from Havre. About the same
time It arrived at New Orleans, killing tbero 1,400
daring January ( In a fortnight It was at Memphis
another fortnight carried It to St. Louis; and an.
other to Nashville and Cincinnati. On tbe 11th of
Slay It reappeared tn New York, finding a home
awaiting it at tbe Fire Points, and during that
year 6,071 deaths occurred in tbe city by it; and
in tbe summer of IBM It claimed 2,(09 more.
We hare not the statistics of the ebolera mor
tality In Washington, but It la known to have been
aa large aa In other cities In proportion to the pop
nlatton, and if we make any allowance for the In
crease of filth and tbe Influx of a population poor,
Ignorant and housed In dirty tenements, we may
anticipate with a dreadful certainty the revlsttatlon
of tbe pestlloocos
The General Board of Health of Great Britain
declared that, as was anticipated, In 1849, the
"cholera returned to tbe aame countries, and the
tame cities and towns, and even the aame $tret$ and
kouttt and room, which tt ravaged In 1832(M and
furthermore, It Is stated that "bat very few Indeed
wbo Buffered thinner escaped now, except In those
Instances la which sanitary measures have In tbe
mean time been effected." The city of Worcester,
on the Severn, which had twice been scourged,
having performed a thorough cleansing, escaped tbe
following epidemic, which swept tbe neighboring
cttlea The cholera of 1819, with Insignificant ex
ceptions, prevailed, out of 600 towns noted, in
those previously known for their local imparities,
In 68 towns where It raged severely tbe Committee
of the Royal College of Burgeons found the localis
ing causes of pestilence prevailing; and la 61 oat of.
63 quarters where It first appeared, la aa many dis
tricts, the well known and preventlble causes were
found.
Now, It has been demonstrated absolutely that
proper sanitary regulations will prevent and con
trol the epidemic, while it la as certain tbat It will
revisit the aame cities and localities it scourged
before If not kept out by mural purification. If
Congress Is to remain In perpetual session, It doea
not certainly desire to be reduced below a quorum
by tbe cholera j and If It Is to adjouro, It cannot
wish to leave the poor freed men exposed to Its rav
ages If protective measures can be devised and
adopted, finally, Congress cannot act upon this
subject too promptly.

Plague,11 containing the regulations In force upon
this sabject la Belgium. I also enclose a eopy of
tbe law of the 7th of Febraary last, aad of the Royal
and Ministerial decrees, aa well aa tbe Instructions
with respect to these new regulations. Tbe eattle
plague, to which yon refer In your note, had not
been observed In the Province of Antwerp since the
2d of Febrwery, bat has just broken oat again. It
appeared at the same time In three different par
ishes, vis! Antwerp, Stamtnd and Maiem.
In tbe two first localities tat disease was sop-
pressed by the sacrllco of four animals. In the
last tt became necessary so sacrifice all the animals
to the number of eae hwadrcd and thirty-six, in
tbo stables of a JIstMIer at Max em. The veteri
nary SugAowe state that 00 examination of tbe
bodies after death tbey found fifty-two animals
affected by the disease. This outbreak baa now
beet stamped oat, and every precautionary meas
ure has been taken te remove any danger whloh
may result therefrom.

Information for the use of the Agi Joultura! Depart

the wey t
"Every planter tbat ean get labor la pt ttlng In
all tho cotton possible, In hopes to sell at hi gh rates;
and many of them are neglecting corn, preferring
to depend upon the Northwest for their supplies
"Tbe freedmen hare contracted freely w 1th their
old masters, aa a general thing. The higher rates
of wages tn Alabama and Mississippi are inducing
.some of them to discard their contracts In Georgia
,-id migrate westward.
' I find matters looking more cheerful tha a I had
reason to anticipate when I left tbe North In Jan
nary, and I bare been most agreeably disappointed
In finding aath good order prevailing in all sections
of the South. Charleston Is the only cltw that ap
pears to be slow In repairing damages, yet consid
erable Is being done there.
"There are som among the people wbo lave hat
little hope of seeing prosperous days sgeln, they
are a small minority, however. Tbe active). Intel
ligent men of the Sooth are sanguine, raid now
that slavery Is abolished have no desire tc see It
reinstated. Tbe great aim tmong tbe people la to
Induce white labor to come Into the South, as tbe
necessity of Intelligent labor le being duljr appre
ciated. There la a acarclty of freedmen, owing
principally to the severe ravagea or tbe anviU.pox,
and several Instanoca have been mention ed where
over half tbe old hands have been burls d from this
disease.
" Several planters I have met "have pat In aa
much cotton aa formerly, but there will be much
land Idle. I am sanguine In expressing Ibo opin
ion that the entire cotton crop of tbe South can be
worked without tbo hand hoe, by Introducing Im
proved Implements.
"From what I could lee rn regarding rice, lam
inclined to believe there witt ba about one-thlrd of
a crop yet these estimates depend altogether upon
the freedmen ( If they hold out true tb their con
tracts nntlt after harvest, all will be well, bat If
tL'ey back down In the heat of summer It will make
a material difference, which will result In tbelr
migrating elsewhere for employment next sum
