There was no public reception, and the

Tne following letter was addressed to
the President by Governor Hampton this
morning:
Willard's Hotel, Wadiing1on,lMarch 29th
To the President Sir: Iu compliance with
your invitation, I am here for the purpose
of uniting my efforts with yours to the end
of composing the political differences
which how unhappily distract at this time
the people of South Carolina. I beg you
to believe that my anxiety to bring about
the permanent pacification of that State, a
pacification in which the rights of all shall
be safe, and the interests of all shall be
protected, is as sincere as I feel assured is
your own for the accomplishments of the
same ends. My position for years past, in
reference' to the political rights of colored
citizens, and my solemn pledges given du
ring the late canvass iu South Carolina,
that under my administration all their
rights should be absolutely secure, should
furnish a sufficient guarantee of my sincer
ity on these points, which appear to be the
subject of special anxiety. I have the
honor to ask at what hour it will be your
pleasure to receive me.
I am, sir, very respectfully, your obedi
ent servant,
Wade Hampton,
Governor of South Carolina.

Favorable Prospects of a Pacific
Sol n Hon of the Eastern Question.
London, March 29.
The Post publishes the following in an
official form: "We are glad to .say the
prospects of a pacific solution are at least
favorable to this degree, that negotiations
are to be continued. We may thus gather
that the fresh suggestions placed before the
cabinet are deemed worthy of considera
tion, and that a way is still thought to be
open to a satisfactory arrangement of all
differences.'

too Louisiana Conservatives. Judge Law

senting the views of Senator David Davis.
Mr. McVeigh is not objectionable to the
conservatives. The President requested
Gen. Gibson and Col. isvy to repair to
New Orleans and assist him in carrying out
his scheme of pacification. Tbe first object
of the Commission will undoubtedly be to

Cotton Trade, &c.
London, March 29.
The Pall Mall Gazette's Berlin dispatch
says: "It is understood that Prince Bis
marck, at yesterday's interview with Gen.
Ignatieff, engaged to support Russia's fresh
proposals. Probably England, Prance and
Italy will shortly return their ambassadors
to Constantinople, or accredit special en
voys provisionally. Austria has also inti
mated her intention of doing the same.'"
A Reuter telegram from Vienna states
that tbe Political Correspondencia has infor
mation that England has accepted Russia's
counter proposals in substance. Negotia
tions continue about the wording of the
protocol.
The limes, in a leading article, takes a
very gloomy view of the situation. It
says: "It is really idle to talk of inquiries,
threats, armistices, constitutions and other
acts, thinly dressed in phrases of legal sig
nificance. In a word, 'we have failed. We
have had our turn, and it is over. Whe
ther we were simply aiming at the refor
mation of the Turkish empire, with due re
gard to its integrity and independence, or
whether we had also an eye to British in
terests at stake, we had our innings and
have scored nil."
St. Petersburg, March 28.
In consequence of an earnest request
from Russia for a decisive answer upon the
protocol question, the English ministers,
after yesterday's council, expressed their
willingness to sign the protocol as drafted
by Russia, leaving aside the question of
demobilization.

The steamer Victoria, from Boston, is

The circular of the Liverpool Cotton
Brokers' Association, reviewing tbe week's
trade, says:
"Cotton this week was further depressed,
and with a limited business, quotations
were generally reduced l-16id. Ameri
can has been dull and irregular, and is par
tially l-16d lower. For Sea Island the de
mand was small and quotations were un
changed. There was a moderate business
in futures, and after several small fluctua
tions prices closed about the same as at
the end of last week."
