CABLE NEWS. SOLOVISFF EXKCITED AT hT. PETEKSBIRk Excitement Among the Dacolts or Western India. THE GOLDEN WEDDI56- Loxpon, Jane 10 The Bordeaux radicals propose to again elect M BluDqui to the Chamber of Deputies. The Emperor William, the Empress and Priuoe J3i6inaick have returned to Berlin. The eruption of Mount Etna has ceased, but the volciuo continues to give forth smoke. The Pope has appointed Cardinal Hergenroether Keener of the Archives of the Holy ee. A riot against the collection of taxes has occurred in the district of Catania, Sicily. Several soldiers and p easants have been killed. The Times Hay-'The steamer Far adav has left the Miilwall docks and commenced to take the new French telegraph cable on board, bbe will probabiy sail this week.' Alexander Solovieif, who attempted to a-BaeBinato the Emperor of KurMa on the 14th of April, was Laugtd at itn o'clock yester-iay morning ou the Smolenr-ki Field He was convicted on Saturday by ike Supreme Tribunal of St Petersburg ot belonging to an association for tne overthrow t f tLe State,' and thereupon cond n ued t death, t veuty-four houri of grace be ing given him in which to appeal for mercy. The Czar, before leaving for Lavadia, declared that be wished that the Hffair hhouid be terminated before his return to St Petersburg. It is re ported that Solovieff, thoutih admitting his crime, entertaiued the hope that his life would be spared. The Daily News' correspondent in Berlin denies the truth of a report telegraphed thence to the Pall Mall Gazette on June b stating that Ger many had decided to address a note to the European governments on the im proper and inhuman character of the war in South America and suggesting joint interference. A despatch to the Morning Poat from Berlin announces that Germany is seriously offended at the right of search claimed and exercised by Peru against German vessels, and a strong protest demanding explanations is about to be despatched to Lima. The North German Gazette, of Berlin, publishes the text of Germany's protest against the decree of the Khedive of April 22. The protest says the decree is in direct violation of in ternational obligations. Germany must deoline to consider it binding, and holds the Khedive responsible lor all consequences of his illegal proceed ings. The act of grace, whereby the Em peror William intends to signalize his golden wedding, will only apply to Prussia, but there is reason to believe that the other German States wil imi tate his example. The Duke of Edinburgh is expected to arrive in Berlin to-day. He will re present Queen Victoria at the Em peror's goiden wedding. The Post's despatch from Berlin states that the amnesty to be proclaimed on the oc casion of the Emperor's golden wedd ing does not include recalcitrant priests and the ultramontanes are greatly dis appointed in consequenoe. Calcutta, June y The treaty just concluded with Yakoob Khan has, ac cording to official advices which have been received here, prod no d as'trong impression in Persia, greatly inoreas ingsBritish prestige in that country. The Persian army is still on the bord ers of Persia, near Herat, but the Shah has assured the Indian govern ment that it is there only for the purpose of guarding the frontier. Reports from the front state that 40, 000 camels belonging to the transport service have died during the war in Afghanistan. Another despatch states that cholera of a severe type has made its appearance in the lower Bolan Pass. A mission to Cacul is to be forthwith formed at Kobat and to proceed by way of the Kuuram Valley about the end of June. The daooits of the Poonah district are still aotive and petty robberies are reported daily, but since the great fires there has been no outrage on a large soale . More or less copious rains are re ported from nearly all the distr.cts of Bengal and Assam. The rain fall in Cachar, Bengal, has as yet been slight and partial, but sufficient to greatly improve the pros pects of the indigo crop. The reports from the tea districts are, on the whole, fairly good. The famine in Cashmere is taking its course, and the people are reported to be dying by hundreds. Fatal NesroFisht. Savannah, Ga., June 9 A terrible riot took place this afternoon at Mcintosh, Liberty county, a station od the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad, between a party of negro excursiouists, from Bryan county, and negroes belonging in McIaUsh. The trouble began in a tigbt between two ne groe?, whereupou John Rmdale, the captain of a negro militia ccmpany from Bryan county, which company formed a part of the excarsion party, ordered a charge. The company obeyed the order, bayonettiug everybody within reach, the captain himself killing one man by ruu ning him through with his sword. There was intense excitement at this outrage, and the Mcintosh negroes rallied and drove the military company into the cars, opened fire on them, ki.led four, wcHnded a large number of others and only stopped shooting when the train was drawn out of range. They tried to prevent the train Tom leaving by tearing up the railroad track, but failed. All the parties engaged were negroes. 15 CONGRESS. SENATE.

But he after ward withdrew the motion, M de Cas sagnac having withdrawn the word cowardice, ' which he had applied to the conduct of the Government. London, June 10 The Standard's Paris despatch says the scene in the Chamber.of Deputies during the baN loting on the motion for the prosecu tion of M de Cassagnao is indesoriba able. M Levert, Bonapartist, and M Margue, Radical, actually came to blows and had to be separated. C1B0L1M.

The Charleston Newt and Courier copies the articl3 in last Saturday 'd Charlotte Observer, which told of sev eral mysterious letters which had been reo jived by a negro in the southeast ern part of Mecklenburg, telling him that it was time for the, burning of houses and railroad bridges to J begin and comments upon it as' follows: It is dimoult to state where these letter came from.

N. Y- Sun. The End of the Strike The 2.700 striking 'longshoremen bare yielded. On Wednesday last th-y rrdaced their demands from 30 and 45 oents an hour to 30 cents, day and night. They supposed that Ihe em ployers who had already offered them 25 and 35 cents an hour, would jump at their offer of compromise. But now the companies woui not give even the 25 and 35 oents, and offared only 25 oents au hour, day and night. There was muoh destitution among the men while the strike lasted. A committee of 'longshoremen's Union No 3 made inquiries in West street every night, in order to ascertain the names of those who were in absolute want. These rhfy.assisted. The committee bad $2, ooo from Union No 1, and about 81, -800 more from other societies. But this did not cover all the needs of the -tr i k rs and on Sa'urdav evening they vctedtogo to work. Fire hundred found employment yesterday. Lively Stock Operations.

Send a self-ad ressed envelope to the Be v. Joseih T. Ism as Station D New York City Savannah, Ga., June 16th, 1879. EoiToa of the Rkvibw: The North Carolina newspapers, espe cially the Observer, gives the most flowing accounts ot Lue progress made in deepen ing the water between the ocean and youi city, asserting that New lulet will really be closed up, and that at no distant day ; that twenty feet of water can and will be carried up to the city and hence the com merce of the Old North State will be open to the shipping of ah nations, and vessels of large draft, through her, port of Wil mington. If this is all true and it should be true what hinders Wilmington from being a port of large business? There is none other between Baltimore aud Char leston, Norfolk excepted. You have now the facilities the best transportation lines ot any port on the coast, so far South. Your railways and river lines penetrate the State in every direction and South Carolina, too, for a long distance. You reach the great State of Georgia by way of Chariot! e aud Atlanta You can reach Virginia by way of the Yadkin Valley line. Why, then, not draw the business from all points? r It will not avail your people any thing to sit down and grumble aud lament over the perverseness of people in some sec tions of the State, because they will go to Virginia or South Carolina markets in stead of coming r'ght away to Wilming ton, where they are supposed to owe alle giance, to sell their products and buy their supplies. Human nature is very much the same all over this vast country ot ou s, aud men will do business where they can be best accommodated, regard less of State lin s and State patriotism. Here is Savannah uiih ber good business houses, her splendid railroads and steam ships, aud yet many Georgians from the couutry trade in Charleston and I doubt not the Charleston merchants eacourage them in doi g so Maybe they give them better accommodations than they can get iu their own thrifty aud rapidly growing market town. We never nave auy com plaint of this by business men nere. But they all set to work to win business by doing a little better If they can than the sane kind of business man can do else where. They have their agents in every considerable place in, the State, and their facilities for doing a good part by their patrons is presented to the great body of business men everywhere within their isach Savannah has a large productive back country but with the exception of a small area, it is far back and reached only by her railway lines and ber rivers. Iu other words, Savannah, like Wilmington, is in a measure isolated by the poor sandy and swamp lands along the seaside te.t for thirty or forty miles inland, Ux far for wagon transput ia iuus, at tnis day of 'cheap freights.' Her rail. oa Is are well managed and try to aid the business communities in developing new busiutsa, by moderate rates and quick dispatch, until the new business can 'stand alone' and 'walk.' The longest railway line here, (the Cen tral Railroad) owns the finest steamah p line io the United State; it may nut be the largest, but it is the best. Four large steamships, exactly alike, of about 2,300 tons burden each ply regularly between Savannah and New York, making trips twice a week each way. Besides this line there are weekly lines to Baltimore and Philadelphia, and a monthly line to Boston. There are many transent steamers during the cotton season that come here for cotton frrm Europe. When I arrivad here last November I saw almost as large a fleet of steamers, loading cotton as there was in Wilming ton during the palmiest days of blockade running, but with this difference. These steamers carried 5,000 bales of compress cotton each and one, I remember, carried, I was told, 7,000 bales. If I remember rightly the Cot Lamb, that made two rips to Wilmington aud left for the last time t be night before Fort Fisher ftl , carried 1,800 bales and it was said to be the largest cargo ever carried by a blockader from Wil mington. At ordinary high water they can carry down the river from sixteen to seventeen feet of water and with Spring tides eighteen or nineteen feet. Large Ships only load in part here and drop down to 'Venus Poiut' where there is nineteen to twenty feet of water at low tide and have the last third of their oar goes lightered to them about 15 miles below the city. It is the intention of the Government to give full twenty-two feet of water up to the city at mean high water. I see no reason why Wilmington cannot have as much if .you can "collect the water in the river together as it is being col lected here, making one channel instead of several or spreading out in shoal water. By a system of 'wing-dams' aud 'train ing walls' the Cape Fear River may be made te give 16 to, 18 feet of water at low tide up to Wilmington as well as the Savannah. With such depths of water the future of Wilmington has not been considered by the most sanguine Re-t store the waters on the Main Btr to eight een feet at man low tide, aud the bal. auce of the deepening to the .ity will fol low in due time. The water on the bar here, (Tybee bar) is but seventeen feet at low water. But the tide rises seven feet there aud six feet at Savannah that is the ordinary ri- I have seen it here rise eight teet on a full moon with an East wind. At some future time I will tell you of the rice planting here; to your people it is worth considering. F. P. S. My usual even wals to t Confederate Monument Park carries ruu by the Synagogue of the Israelites where they are having services every Friday night.
