HY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNK. WasHINGION, Dec. 2, 1866, The House caucus of Saturday evening has stinck n key note fer the session, With few exceptions, the Radical members have come back from their constitu- ents and from the great victories of the Fall with a spirit of resolute fidelity to their great trust, and with higher congage for the struggle which the continued hostility of "the Executive will compel them to wage. The party was uever so compact as to-day. A late repentance has brought within its lines some of the Conservative guerrillas of the last session, and on any measure of public necessity there is no longer a doubt that more than two-thirds of either House will unite against a Presidential veto. That member of the House of Representatives who knows it most intimately and is best entitled to speak in its name, assures me that four-fifths of its members stand ready to vote articles of impeachment. Whether such articles shall, or shall not. be laid upon the table of the House will probably depend on the temper of certain members of the Senate yet to be ascertained. Mr. Boutwells resolution in caucus, looking to an investigation and impeachment, received a tumultuous welcome. Still, jt is net commonly believed that em any existing ba sis of facts, the impeachment will be proceeded with It is known, spite of cooked reports to the contrary telegraphed to New-York, that Mr. Johnson's message will hold out no olive branches to the expeetant grasp of Congress. 1f that functionary shall make any tender of compromise, it will be only such as may breed con- fusion in loyal councils, The proceedings of the caucus sufficiently show by what prelimivary measures Congress proposes to guard its prerogatives avd pro- vide for the public safety. Mr. Garfield's bill will declare in substance a permanent session of Congress, aud, together with another bill not mentioned in cau- cus, will leave neither a moment of interval between the 39th and 40th Congresses, nor any oppor- tunity to obstruct the organization of the latter. It is proposed to prescribe more exactly than is now done the method of organization of the House and to lock every door through which outziders might now ‘attempt to intrude. On questions of reconstruc- tion, there ig no one of the 20 or 30 leading members with whom 1 have conversed who does not recognize in the voice of the people an instruction to take care, by some means, that the Repablic receive no detri- ment, and if its permanent welfare cannot be secured by the pending Constitutional Amendment, that it must be by other guarantees, Nor will the Presi- dent be left free to precipitate the country into a foreign war, in order to confuse the settlement of home questions. (Congress means to keep purse and sword in its own bands, and, while deelaring its unchanged opinions upon the Mexican invasion, the Alabama claims, and the Fenian diffi culties, it will utter no rash word, nor suffer the Pres- ident to involve the country by any rash act in respect to foreign affairs where its jurisdiction is complete and unaisptied at home, it will enact impartial suf- frage at once. In “ha Senate, Mr. Sumuer will move immediately to take np the 1 strict of Columbia Bill the blacns, abd pressit to a conferring the ballot upon vote, if possible, before any other business 12 touched. There is reason to hope that the principle of that bill may, so far as Congress can do it, be implanted in the Constitution itself before another December comes yound. There are men who confidently believe that such an amendment could pass both Houses before the end of the present session. About #0 members, including Speaker Colfas, were resent. Justin 8. Mornll of Vermont, was called to the chair, and Ebon C_ Ingersol of 1llinois, was made secretary. Thaddeus Stevens was the first to take the floor, and in a short speech, bg oped some mem- ber would move the appointment of a committee of ten to prepare business for the session, the committee to report to the joint caucus of the Senate and House, to be held on Wednesday evening next. He did not wish to move such a committee himself, because he did not desire to be its chairman. Hereupon a general demand was made that Mr. Stevens should make the motion, and he yielded. It prevailed unanimously amid applause, aud the committee was made up as follows: Stevens of Pennsylvania, Schenck of Obig, Bountwell of Massachusetts, E. B. Washburne of Illinois, Garfield of Ohio, Hart of New-York, Allison of lowa, Orth of Indiana, and Pike of Maine. The subject of the Congressional reception to-morrow was next taken up, and the programme was completed. Speaker Col- fax was named to respond to the speech of welcome on behalf of the House, and Thaddeus Stevens to speak at the banquet in the eveming. Mr. Stevens then offered a resolution, in the name of the House, requesting the Senate not to confirm any nominations to fill vacancies which there was reason to believe had been created for political reasons. This was greeted with expressions of lively satisfaction. The Hall rang with applause. Judge Spaulding of Ohio took exception to the resolution. He thought it was interfering with the Constitutional duties of the Senate, and Senators probably understood their bus. iness without being instructed, It was making a great fuss about a little matter. This brought Nte- vens promptly to lis feet, who asked if 1t was a little matter” that dishonest parasites should be selected with a basis of partisan motives to succeed patriotic and faithful officers, removed only because they would not swear allegiance to a treacherous Exe- cutive. [Applanse,] If this was a ‘little matter,” he did not know of any worthy of the attention of Congress. He had heard of vacant judgeships out in Olio, but he hoped no such consideration would in. fluence any Republican. [Applanse.] Judge Kelley gaid he was glad tbe resolution was offered. Men who had been guilty of stealing, and whom &s criminal judge he would bave sent to the Penitentiary, had appointed to office by Andrew Jobuson in place of incorruptible men, whose only offense was that they were true to their trust, He instanced the case of one man who bad been caught stealing a steam engine from the Navy-Yard, and who was now one of the President's appointees. Mr. Darling of New-York said that worthless men had been appointed in his District, and he should do all in bis power to prevent their confirmation. The resolution was then passed unanimously, even Judge Spaulding acquiescing. Mr. Stevens then read for the information of his fel- low-members the following bill, stating that he in- tended to offer it at once, and push it to a vote within ten days. It was received with wari applause: SEerioN 1, That in wll instances of appointments to office by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, the power of removal shall be exercised ouly in con- currence with the Senate, Sic, 2. In cuse of disubility or misconduct in office occur. ring during the recess of the Senate, where the interests of the public may make it necessary to displace the incumbent until the advice and consent of the Senate can be duly had and ob tained thercoy, it shall be lawful for the President to suspend the disabled or defaulting officer, and to designate some other np to perform the duties of the office until the Senate shall ive on opportunity of acting thereon: and it shall be the duty of the President, within ten days after the next meeting of the Senate, to report to it the fact of such suspension, with the reasons therefor, and to nominate a person for the place and in case of the refnsal of the Senate to concur in sueh suspen sion, either by 4 direet vote thereon, or by net advising and consenting to the sppointment of the person so nominated, the officer who Las been thus suspended shall thereupon resume the exercise of the official ve as though the same hud not been interrupted. Sec. 3. That every person who has been or shall herenfter he nominated to the Senate for office, and who shall fail 10 receive the advice and consent of the Renate thereto, shall he incapable of holding any office under the United States for the term of three years after such rejection, unless two-thirds of the Senate shall relieve him of such disabHity. The predecessor of any nominee rejected by the Senate shall still continue to hold his sald office. Whenever any person bas assumed office, und 1s discharging its duties on the nomination of the President, be fore he has been confirmed by the Senate, on his rejection, ull the subordinates or deouties who have been appointed Ly him, or ou Lis recoramendazion, shall vacate their places and cease 0 act. Ske, 4. Thet all nominations to office made by the President shall be communicated to the Senate within twenty davs after Lucy ure made or after the next sneeeeding session of the Senate r. Spaalding suggested that u committee be ap- pointed to take into consideration the expeuses of passing a law for the assembling of Congress at some date antecedent to the first Monday of December, Goan. Garfield of Ohio said he had prepared a bill, which he would submit at an early day, providing for the convening of cach Congress on the 4th of March, This bill contemplates that Congress shall be con- structively in perpetual session, to be prorogued from time to time by 4 joint committee, Mr. Kelley read a bill providing for a Department of Internal Revenne, The first section provides that there shall be one Commissioner with a salary of NEW-YORK, MONDAY, DECEMBER 3," 1866. $5,000, a Deputy at a salary of £4,500, two assis tants, salaries each 3.500; Solicitor and Cashier, salaries each $3,000; Auditor, salary $4,000; Chief Clerk and seven heads of divisions, each $2,500; and uot more than 250 clerks. Section second provides that the Commissioner shall be appoiuted by the Associate Justices of the Supreme Court by nomination of the Chief Justice. Section third authorizes and requires the Comissioner to appoint all bis own deputies and clerks, and also all assessors, collectors, revenue agents, inspectors, and cenerally to exercise the power now vested in the President and the Secretary of the Treasury for this purpose. Section 4 provides that all incumbent offi- cers shall remain in office for sixty days after the pas- sage of this bill, unless sooner relieved, This bill is not intended as a political measure for the purpose of weakening the President or diminishing his patron. age, but the office is clearly a judicial one, and re- quires an able executive head. This security is be- lieved to be demanded by the financial aud com- mercial interests of the nation. Mr. Boutwell informed the caucus of his intention to offer soon a resolution calling upon the President and Secretary of State for the correspondence on the subject of John H. Surratt, He said that he had reason to believe thatduring the search for John H.Surratt, his hiding place was known to the President, and that it was by the connivance of Andrew Johnson that the escape of Surratt was finally effected, He also de- sired a committee to investigate the official conduct of the President, and his acts down from the time of his drunken inauguration, and if the grave offenses charged against him were sufficiently sustained to nstify articles of impeachment, they should be drawn, and the offender should Le arraigned for trial, This was greeted with the most tumultuous applause, and prolonged cheering, and, though Mr. Boutwell con- tinued to speak, his words were inaudible. The members then indulged an interchange of con- gratulations on the magnificent vindication of October aud November. Thad, Stevens remarked that he felt that he was too conservative last session [laughter and was rebuked by some of his eonstituents when he went home because he had not heen radical enough, They had abead of him. He meant to catch up, This time be intended to go to the root of the matter, [Applanse.] The caucus then adjourned. An additional number of Congressmen arrived here to-day, and there is now no doubt that a quorum of both Houses will be inattendance to-morrow. As there is no organization to be effected, it is only neces- sary as a preliminary proceeding to ascertain the fact of a quorum in the customary way, the usage of the House being to call the roll of members, but this is not the case in the Senate. The next step is to appoint a joint committee to wait on the President and inform him that a guornm of both houses have assembled and are ready to receive any communication he may have to make. These pro- ceedings will not occupy perhaps more than an hour, and should there be no hindering occurrence the mes- sage may be expected early in the afternoon, Copies of it and of the reports of all the Heads of Depart- ments and of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue have already been dispatched from this city by special messenger and otherwise to the principal cities in all sections of the eounty, a generous disposition being manifested by all the high officials to accommodate the press in order that the gyublic may have at the earliest period information coucerning the Ex- ecitive Department of the Government, Agents and corespondents pledged themselves for the newspapers which they represent that every precautiam should Le taken to prevent a premature disclosure of the contents of the documents before they shall In oili- cially laid before Congress. This assurance and ¢9n- fidence in the promise aided materially in obtain- ing the supply of the documents for the press, and it is expected that publishers everywhere will respect the obllgation which thus rests upon them. Souie of the Republican members think that, if the procession to give them welcome shall reach the Capitol before the Message is sent to Congress, an aaonrmment will take place until Tuesday, without Wilting fos the document, The banquet to Congress will take place to-morrow evening. Speeches will be made in response to toasts by Senator Howe, Judge Fisher,"Judge Kelley, the Hon. Geo. W. Julian, Drs, Sunderland and Boynton, Senators Summer, Fessenden, Wilson, and Trumbull, Gen. Butler, Mr. Forney, Frederick Douglass, and others. The Hon. Thaddeus Stevens will respond tg the toast on Congress. The procession will form at the City Hall at 11 o'clock a. m., and wove at 12 o'clock noou, beaded by the Marine Band, Gen. Hiram Walbridge will preside, At least five bills ou the subject of providing ter ritorial Governments for the Southern States are pre- pared, and will be presented early in the session. Secretary Seward received a dispatch to-day from the Consul-General at Alexandria, stating that John H. Surratt had been arrested at a point in Egypt, and is now confined in prison awaiting a requisition from our Government. The Southern Republican Association will meet here to-morrow morning. Committees will be se- lected for each State, their duties being to superintend the thorough organization of the Republican party in the South, The objects of the Association are com- prehensive, and look, among other things, to a liberal and judicious use of the resources of the Government in developing the heretofore neglected interests of the States. Prominent members of the Association are organizing a company for the purpose of completing the unfinished railroads in Alabama, and propose {to ask Congress to renew certain land grants in their behalf which were made im Alabama for railroad purposes in 1856, and which 1 have reverted to the Government. R. O. Sidney, Corresponding Secretary, has divided hie plantation {in Mississippi into small farms of 80 to 100 acres each, and through the auspices of this Association fam- ilies are being located, provided, and equipped to re- main permanent residents. The estates of other loy- alists are being prepared for colonization, and this wore practical method of Unionizing the South is be- ing energetically pushed. The Committee appointed by the Legislature of Louisiana last year to visit Washington and urge Congress to make an appropriation for the repairing of the levees on the Mississippi, is here again, It is the intention of its members to agitate the matter thoroughly and have their bill passed as soon as possible, During the past year the expenditures of the Post Office Department have exceeded its receipts by %065,003 09, Deducting the Government appropria- tion of £700,000 to pay for Govermuent and Congres. sional matter passing through the mails, The annual deficit is ouly $265,003 (4, ‘The amount of stationery necessary for all the as- gessors and collectors in the United States, which was erroneously stated to amount to $5,000,000, Las heen carefully reckoned up by the Department and found I to amount to a little over $100,000, The contract has not yet been awarded. A surprising case of honesty among Congressmen was observed to-day. The Hon. Fernando C, Bea- man, M. C. for the Ist District of Michigan, who was a member of the XXXVIHth and XXXIXth Con. gresseg, and bas been reélected to the XLth, during his first term was awarded ¥509 72 on account of mileage in excess of amount due, He declined to re- ceive the amount, informing the Commtttee of the correct amonnt of mileage due, and insisted upon the To-day, upon closing the accounts, however, Mr, Beaman was prevailed upon to receive the money to prevent a disarrangement of the books, but he depos- ited the same with ‘Treasurer Spinner to the eredit of the United States, When it is considered that be has been relocted tot wo Congresses since the amount was awarded and declined, without the matter becoming public, and that he especially requested that the sul. ject might not be alluded to in the newspapers, it is fair to conclude that his action was not for the purpose of securing «clat or votes—hut it deserves both. The bids for furnishing iron head blocks for the graves of Soldiers, in accordance with advertisements recently published, were yesterday opened by the Quartermaster-General in person, in presence of about 50 persons. The blocks are to contain name, rayk, company snd regiment of the deceased soldiers, and are to be ey at the various Government cemeteries, The bids were about 100 in number, The name of the lowest bidder has not yet become known, or the price at which the blocks are to be supplied. t is doubtless true, however, hat all bids above ®1 30 each will be unsuccessiunl. The number of blocks to be furnished is not far from 300,000, It has been determined to locate the White House, and the Presidential Park that will surround it, about

two miles out of the city toward the north-west, Here the natural irregularities of the surface and a beautiful stream of water will afford every advantage to improve nature by its developmentin the hand of It i¢ intended to make this spot to the nation what Central Park is to New-York—the highest development of park aud ornamental and artistic gar. Fdening. The Jagd will cost about $1,500 en acre, vo art, that half a million of dollars will secure all the terri- tory needed. ~The melter at the United States Mint bas made an important discovery, which will save the Government vast sum of money. Recent experiments have demonstrated that in fature coinages of gold, $2,600 out of every million converted from dust will be clear profit to the United States. The new process will not be made public, Agreeing with the War Department Board as to the utility of the Tompkins wheeled litter” in place o the common stretchers at permanent military posts and at depot hospitals, the Surgeon-General has recommended that one be supplied to each depot of recruits, school of instruction, and to frontier posts. It is the purpose of the Quartermaster-General to dispatch one of these litters to the American Com- missioner for the Paris Exposition. The statement in a Meadville (Pa.) paper that there is a Revolutionary pensioner named Bakeman, re- siding at Cattaraugus County, N. Y., is untrue. In- ventions of this gort have before been put in circula- tion, for what purpese can only be imagined. The statement. recently published that the work in the Pension Office was decreasing is untrue, the facts being that the business has nearly doubled within the last six months, This is partly owing to the two acts increasing pensions ‘passed at the last session of Congress. Itis also to be borne in mind that additions to the pension rolls involve an in- crease of labor which is permanent so long as the pen- sion thus granted continues to be paid. The adjudi- cation of a claim therefore does not end the work of the Pension Office concerning it, but only begins its labor in the premises. Tho clerical force has, within the same period, been increased about 30 per cent, and a still higher increase is indispensable to prevent the business from falling greatly in arrears. An appro- priation was made at the last session of Congress to enable the Pension Office to rent a building for its use, in addition to the apartments already occupied—= the Patent Office. A house on G-#t., opposite the De- partment edifice, has been rented for hie purposes and 1s now occupied by a portion of the clerks of the office. In no other city in the land do prices rule so high as in Washington. The head of one of the Burecans of the Treasury Department had some bricks blown off hig chimney a short time since. He sent for a work- man to replace them, The workman, after looking at them, told him he should charge ten dollars for the job. The gentleman remonstrated with him on the exorbitant price, and finally offered him fifty cents a brick for laying. He then offered to pay him for his time at the rate of sixty dollars a day. The workinan still declined and the gentleman had to allow him his original price.

The following is a letter received in Washington by a prominent ofticial, from Ex-Postmaster-General Dennison, on the political situation Mriayr, 0, November 23, I have some anxiety in regard to the temper of our friends in Congress in respect to the President, but hope it will of u diguitied and moderate nature as displayed in word and act. 1 am opposed to all impeachment movements, unless the Presi: dent has been doing or shall do something that will make it im- perative upon Congress to vindicate the honor or preserve the peace of the country, As to his policy, the people have pro- nounced their verdict upon it. and Congress may well leave it, only carrying out by proper legis lation the will of the people as expressed in that verdiet, shall be glad to see an improvement in the jompet of the President, and will hall with great satisfaction his hearty codperation with Cengress in securing the adoption of the Awendment by the Southern States. 1 fave only kind personal feelings toward the President, and will be sincerely gratified to see him cut loose from the Demoeratie party, and unite his fortunes with the Republican. T want to see the Union permanently and completely restored upon the basis of the Awendment. If the Southern States persist in their oppo- sition, and reject that wholesome measure, 1 will be prepared, with my political friends, to compel a restoration upon such terms as will give Jetiinent peace and security to the nation, however opposed the ruling classes of the South may be. We cannot afford to have another war, if positive measuses can avert it. We must prevent, under any eirenmstances, this old leaven of the Rebellion to resume its sway in national legisla. tion, I confess to not comprehending the President. What he hopes to accomplish to give historical eminence to his adminis tration I cannot conceive. Without a party in or out of Con- gress, except so far as he may hove counted the Democratic, which is powerless to produce results, what great measure or series of measures can he hope to accomplish If he hopes to achieve anything of permanent valne, including the Mexican business, be will be disappointed. The country is giving little heed to our foreign concerns, All of its thoughts ure directed to home matters, which Congress controls and will absolutely control until March 4, 184, or the close of the Presidential term. If the Southern States shall in the wean time be fully re. stored to the Unjon, and their representatives admitted to Con. gress, that body will have ull the glory, os such results can only be with its consent and upon its terms, It really seems as if the President was steering the ship of State without rudder or compass, and without any definite port for ity final haven. Nor is it possible for it to be otherwise, His very Cabinet organiza. tion requires it. I doubt whether he has the party sympathy, or at least the coneurrence of one third of bis Cabinet, nor can he improve his condition by any changes, If, then, he Lurries bodily intothe arms of the Democratic party, snd calls members of that party to his Cabinet, it will compel the withdrawal of more or less of the remaining mem bers in a very short time, while ke will secure little more sympa: thy from the Democratic members, The truth is, that the Democratic jority do not intend to be swallowed up by the President. It will preserve its organization for the future, however distant, and have nothivg to do with the President, except so far us he may ald in that preservation, If he hesitutes to comply with its wishes, it will cut aloof from him [nconti. nently and mercilessly, 1 would be glad to see the President repair bs mistakes ere the close of his administration.

Beng. Howes of Dennis in ol b Lubra we, the Chine seas, by pirates, and the murder of apt Howes aud several of the crew, Brief mention of (he tragic affair hus been ple tn our dispatehes “The American brigantine Lulira, which left this port on Saturday last, loaded chiefly with arms and ammunition, bound tor Yokohama, returned at 6 pon. last evening, having been at tacked by pirates and the captain and five of the crew killed or ussing, The account is that, about 6 o'clock on Sunday, when about 40 miles outside of Pedro Branco, a junk was observed to wind “ward on the same tack as the Lub, edging down toward her, She came close to, asking where the vessel was from, and where bond te, and upon being told by the chief mate ‘Japan,’ an in. quiry was then wade as to whether they did nt want an inland sea pilot. A pegative answer was returned and the junk told to sheer off, instead of which she put her helm up and ran along. side the brigantine, a stink pot was thrown on her decks, a number of men jumped on board, and the vessel was at once in the hands of the pirates, It appears that the Lubra carried no cannon on deck, and had but few small arms on board. None on board appear to have had any suspicions as to the character of the funk until she ran them aboard, and then of course resis. tance was useless, ‘The captain had his wife and two children on board, and he went down below to protect them the mate followed and told the captain that if he liked they would resist all entry to the cabin, and fight side by side nntil overpowered. The eaptain knew that this would be useless, and told the mate to look out for himself, and not to lift his hand against any of the pirates. The crew Lad by this time taken refuge aloft and were ordered down but refused to come. Une, however, on his way down the rigging was shot and fell overboard. They kept popping at the men in the foretop, and when asked why they did =o, us they had the vessel and could take what they liked, one of them who spoke English replied, You kill Chinaman we makee kill you." When the pirates first went into the cabin they were told by the captain to take what they liked and go. They did not interfere with him at first but ‘proceeded to plunder the cargo and overhaul the cabin, literally turning everything n side down. At Ja. m, yesterday morning they were Shjayeat y satisfied with what they had taken (having well loaded their junk) and proceeded to cast off; before going, however, they filled np the mensure of their erimes by a deliberate murder, “The captain was in the cabin on a ofa, with one arm round Lis wife's waist, holding one of his children in the other, One of the scoundrels came below, presented a pistol at him nnd de: Jiberately fired. ‘The ball entered near the ight eye, and death was almost instantancous, On mustering the erew. out of 12 wen the captain and one of the seamen were found dead, and four gore missing, one of whom was seen to fall overboard after being wounded. The ehief mate, who was unhurt, al though he had a narrow escape, then put the vessel round with the remainder of the crew, and returned to Houg Kong, arriv- ing here at 6 p.m. yesterday evening. “Phere are some suspicious circumstances attached to the case, as three of the survivors swear positively that while alofs they could distinetly recognize the voice of the steyedore of the vessel and again the Chinese cook, who was one of the sur. vivors, disappeared from the vessel about p. m.

2 THE STEWART TENEMENT HOUSES, ¥HE IDEAS TO BLE CARRIED OUT IN THEIR CON- STRUCTION. The following suggestions respecting the proper method of construction of tenement houses, be cdpecinlly enforced in such construction, ware submitted to Mr ALT. Stewart and adopted by that gentleman as the ideas rried out iu b houses which he proposes 10 build in and the points to 10 he this city for the byter accommodation of the laboring and poorer classes, They were prepared by Mr. E. T. Potter, archi tect. of Wall-st., who Las made the requirements of this class ol edifices a speci etudy, The recomendations are based the following principles First: Any plan proposed for an improved tenemant house must, to be of auy benetit, be one that pays, otherwise it will not be folloned. A tenement house, with whatever improve ents, if it dogs not pay us an Investinent, 18 simply a charity, Jike a hospital, and the benefits of the plan are limited to a few families recipients of charity. If, however, a tenement house puys as an investment the landlord would as willingly build it a bad one—=nay, he would prefer the good to secure tenants of a better class than a ol a good plan as vu plan, as more certain badly planned house Second To make one tenement-house pay as well as another same size. it must accommodate the same number of 11 it be urged that the great funlt of the present system 1s the crowding together of so many people. the answer is, that the crowding results from the shape and limited width of the island on which New-York is built, and the natural desire of these whose work is in the City, to live as near their work as possible. The erowding Is not due to the way in which the houses are built, or to the rapacity of Jandlords—it is the result o circumstances which are outside of either, and which we ean not control, Ihird Though crowding cannot, perhaps. be prevented, the evils of crowding may be. Many of onr fashionable watering hotels are, during the hight of the season, more crowded So, also, ol th people Phi than the tenement-houses at present in New-York. wre multitudes of steamers on our inland waters aud oi the What, then, ave the special evils of crowding in tene- “fl meyt- houses Fourth: The evils of crowding in tenement-honses are Want of air. want of sunlight. want of decency, and want of comfort, "Ihe tirst-named evil is the greatest, No much has been said and written lately oa this subject that there 1s no need to en- Jarge on it here. Good v entilation is necessary to health. Lack of ventilation of the dwellings, partienlarly of the sleeping: yooms of the poor, is at the bottom of all the diseases to which the poor are subject—discases which, generated in the unveu- tilated lodgings of the poor, extend to the mansions of the rich, The sleepiug-rooms in New-York tenement house are only 4 step above the Black Hole” of Calcutta, Now, as windows to admit light and air can only be had front and rear, from the street or from the yard. it is evident that the bedroows, not thus exposed, must be dark and unventilated. The ouly light and air they have is gotten through openings in the sitting. rooms. themselves. in most cages, crowded and elose rooms, And. as the front and back bedrooms belong to different fumi- lies, and have, therefore, no communivation, there is no way for such air as is to be found in the bedrocins to pass out, except by which it gotin. Theres, therefore, no emrrent of air, no off of air however foul. Insome houses the bedrooms 1 the hall have large windows opening into it but the wall is itself the center of the house, and is dark and unventila- tod. Tt is possible that something micht be done to better the alr of these wretched sleeping places by means of flues in the walls or under the tloors communicating With the onter air, Tut even if the difficulty of making such a system of flues work rere overcome, and it could be wade simple and eheap, instead of complicated aud expensive, yet it is almost certain that the tenants would themselves stop np the flues. The few might anderstand and right.y estimate the importance of keeping them open—the many woukl do neither. I it be said that the flues should be so arranged that they could not he shut or stopped up. it is replied that this world be impossible, an ingenuity as great as that which invented such a flue, would find a way to stop it up and close it. Indeed, the tenant would feel and not unjustly, that he bad the nght to have the means of shitting the ventilation when he thought bes: to do so. A dint of of cold air which could not be controlied would be an evil often as bad as no ventilation, and one which the tenant would regard as munch worse, Nothing then yemains but to have the bedrooms with windows opening di yeetly to the outer air, if we wish to have them healthy. Dut light is as necessary to health as air. Miss Florence Nieltin- gale, in her Notes on Nursing,” gives many exam les showing ihe necessity of light to health, and says that sie Fi observed that sick men in hospitals turn like plauts to the lieht, and seldom turn away from it except to die. Not ouly hght. but soulicht is necessary to perfect health, The statistics of u hos pital in Paris have shown that the proportion of deaths wus greater in the shady wards than in those w Lich had the sun, The importance of sunshine is now always taken into consid- eration in the planning of hospitals, aud itis time it werehilso considered in planning houses. It is very unfortunate that in New-York the streets in which most of the tenement houses are situate run east and west, so that one-half the dwellers in them have never any sunshine in their dwellings from one year's end to another, uat wonder, then, at the diseases which abound in these cheerless abodes Want of decency follows ou want of light aud want of sir. When we remember that, for a house containing frow 10 to 20 families, where net only one slovenly family in ten, but one uncleanly person, one sick or mischiev- ous child, can outrage the decency and destroy the comfort of all the others, the wonder is not that tenement houses are not more decent, but that the majority are as decent as they are, “Ike management of the privies in conneetion with most tence ment houses is abominable. In Summer, when the windows must be open, this nuisance is sometimes almost unbearable. While the families at the back of the house have the stench of the privies, those in the front Lave one little better from the garbage boxes and barrels on the sidewalk, and the recking gutters. Decayed vegetable sub stances and refuse bones, filth, with the scourings of pots and scrapings of plates. ure emptied into these barrels. w Lich stand on the sidewalk, there to remain at the discretion of the gor bage collectors, often until the barrels or boxes overflow. All the dirty water of all the families in the honse is emptied into tae gutter before their doors, There it stands, or runs down the street past the other houses. The stench from these gutters in hot weather is even worse than that of the garbage-boxes. Rach are some of ho nuisances which oqugict with dicen] in the present system of building tenement houses. Where there is neither air, sunlight, nor decent arragement for living, there can be no comfort. But for the workingman, seeking comfort and rest after his day of toil, there is the barroom, warm snd drighi and cheerful, with its floor nicely strewn with fresh saw its bar challenging admiration, with its glittering and tempting array, and where the open door secures a constant supply of air and company. For his wife, there is hor home, such as we have just described it to be. The foregoing details have been written to very little pie pose if they have not made it elear not only that the prosent system of ding tenement houses has great evils, for that is admitted on all hands, but the chief of these evils is the want of sunlight and air, ard decent means of meeting the necessi- ties of those who live in them. That is an inadequate remedy which does not meet each of these three wants. If, in addition to improved privy accommodations, we could build houses not 80 deep, and let the bedrooms run through, and have windows in the rear, we shonld have a very nice healthy house, with only the garbage box nuisance remaining. But as snch a house would only accoramodate hall as many tenants as one onthe ordinary plan, it would, however good as a charity, be very uu satisfactory as an investment, A lot, suy 25 by 100 feet, with such a honse on it, wonld not pay, unless we added a similar house in the rear of the lot. Iu other words, we might have light bedrooms by cutting the present houses in half, and setting the rear half back some dis. 1ance from the other. But the houscs in the rear would not bring as good a rent as when placed according to the present arrangement. Besides, unless all the adjoining houses throuch. out the whole block are similarly arranged, the rows, being sur- rounded by buildings, would be mere wells—sinks for carbonic acid gas, without any draft of air or good ventilation. The sun, too, would be shut out by them, except at midday. With. out pointing out all the modifications which such a plan, by ter or less extension, is capable of, and the faults of each, at is enough to state generally that what is needed is. that all the ving end sleeping rooms of a dwelling should dave windows to the open air, and that the air spaces thas required should be open at the ends, so as to secure thorough draft. Now, if the air passage opening on a street at both ends, run east and west the length of a whole block, some space will be needed for it, and both the space and the capital required for building on such a scale would be wanting. But in the upper part of the cig there are many vacant lots running through from street to street, though not from avenue to avenue, The distance from street to street is only 200 feet. Withons securing a whole block, it woul not be difficult to seenre such a jon of ome os would allow of runping short streets for air passages from street to street, These pas. sages being open at the ends, would secure a draft of air through them, and as they would run north and south, they would have the sun in them all day. They would take the place of yards, and thus there would no Mss of space. Yards would not be needed, for the privies could be better placed else. where, A clothes-drying flat. say 30 feet by 200 feet, would be afforded by the roof of each house, or rather block of houses, “These flats, if surrounded with a high railing, would wlso aff playing-gronnd for the children, and resorts for all the tenants on Summer evenings, They would be to them what their belvideres are to the Ital fans. But, if thought better, the plan could be so arranged that each alternate air space or street could be railed off at the ends for play grounds for the children. By this arrangement the Summer evemng sea breeze would have full course directly throngh the whole length of the air spaces. while in Winter the force of the prevailing high winds woukl be broken by the Luilding. To secure thorough ventilation, aud the utmost pos- sible amount of sunshine, the houses should be built shallow, so that each tenement may have windows front and rear. And to economise space, the air passages should not be built v ker than necessary to secure sunlight to all parts of them, par ticularly to every window at some hour of the day. By some such system of shallow blocks, with free currents of wir all around them, it is proposed to erect these tenement houses, In.accordance with these general views, Mr, Potter has sub- mitted to Mr, Stewart three plans, each juking its own peculiar adven ‘Lhe simplest and that adopted, is that in which t te tenements are entered by stairs and galle- ries in the open air. The sun and wind and rain would take care of them for the most part, although from belog in plain sight of everybody they are less likely to be neglected or sub- Jectton than inclosed passages and stairways. Nor ‘would it appear that there i8 less privacy to dwellings so situated on galleries, than to the dwellings situated on a village street, A great deal of toiling up and down stairs is saved by having a sink sod bydrant for water on every story, The Jaundry tubs slate partitions with space di by for a basket in front, Beneath the tub, so that each woman can taking furniture and other heavy articles up and L down ashes. arranged that the garbage falls directly into a pu the end of each block.

In arranging the snbMvisions of the scparate tenements on 4 vpper floors of one of these blocks, there is room for con. siderable difference of opinion, Families of different moans aud various sizes, will, and must want various accommodations, and. of course, the rents must be in proportion to the space ocenpied.

L=Before Judge Nuv-on. SULT TO RECOVER FOR DAMAGED FREIGUT—OFPINICN OF JUDGE NELSON. Oliver Moses et al, agt. Robert 1X. Bogd, ot al. Nelson, C. J.—The libel in thiz case was filed upon a charter party to recover a balance of £1,779 27 freight. The cliar- ter party bore date 24th July, 1262, The voyage was from this port to Haire, France, of the ship Robert Cushman, The ves: sel sailed wbout the 19th August, and arrived at Havre 23d September following, The enveo consistad chiefly of wheat, lard and tallow the wheat in Talk and also some iu bags. was stowed in the hold; a portion of the Yard was stowed between decks. The dispute in the ease between the parties arises out of damage occasioned to the wheat in the held by the leaking of the lurd between decks, with which the charterers were charged in Havre and paid; and vow claim the right to retain the amount out of the freight money, insisting the vessel is responsible for this loss. Some difficulty seems to have existed in the Court below in reaching this question ou the pleadings: but, whatever may huve been the merits of the difhi- culty there, it has boen rewedicd by an amendment of the plead. ings in this Court, and the question fairly prosouted. This lard between decks, when delivered at the ship to be taken on board, was badly leaking frow the carks, aud most® of it seemed op arently in an almost liquid state—the weather was exeessively for. $0 tirat the hands engaged in the storage had to be fre quently relieved, and some days to Ye by in the middie of the ay. The stevedore who had charge of the loading refused to take the responsibility of placing the leaking casks between decks. from the danger of damavring the wheat below in the hold, and required the direotion of the master, w ho also objected to taking in the eargo, and made his objection known to the charterers. Wherenpon, they gave him, in due form, en agree: mont. before he would consent to the storage, to pay any dumages that yourself (master) or the ship nay be subject to, on the discharge of the cargo at Havre, The sald damage arising from the lund being stowed between decks and rasning on the other cargo either in the between decks or in the lower hold.” This we regard as a modification of tle charter party, and it has heen so treated 1 in the amended libel, and removes the tech uical embarrassment of the ease 1 the Court below, It is admitted that the damage to the eargo ia question arose out of the leakage of the lard casks. Some were entirely empiy and over 300 partially empty, when discharged at Havre, nil the lard had dripped through the seams of the deck to the eargo below, heated a damaged the wheat, aud spread over the be tu een deck, It is elaimed on the part of the charterers that the between dock was not well and sufiiciontly cantked, and that if it had been, notwithstanding the leaky condition of the casks of lard, it would not have worked its way to the lower hold, and henee, the ship should be held responsible for the damage, and we agree, if this aspect of the case can be maintained upon the proofs, the decree should be for the charterers, because the guarantee should not be construed as exonerating the ship from beiag, in nll respects, in a seaworthy couddion to carry this description of cargo. We have, consequently, looked into the proofs on tiis point. and though (here ix” some conflict of Dliyioy Among the withesses, we are inclined to think that the weight of it does not sustain the allegation of the respond ents. The witnesses who speak of the practice or usage of carrying lard deaking between decks withont danger to the cargo below, if the deck 1s properly ennlked, generally qualify the remark, as it respects lard in a liquid state in the casks, which, as is apparent from the proofs in this case, was the condition of a considerable portion of it when stowed; and 0s the weather continued hot throughout nearly the whole of the vovage, this state of the lard must have increased rather than diminished. Indeed, the state of the ensks when dis charged, and of the between decks, go far to confirm the evi dence of the unusual leaking condition when put on board the vessel, which led the stevedore and master to object to it as not fit to be shipped. And the fuet that the charterers, instead of insisting npon their right under the charter, chose to modify it as respected the particular article, leaves an implication of its unfitness, Some question was made upon a clange in the charier party stipulating that the vessel should be consigned to the eharterer's friends in Havre, and which was consigned accordingly to the house of J, Barh Co. This house received the bilts of lading and collected the freight, aud paid over te the master the amount due, excepting the balance in dispute. They obvionsly regarded themselves us acting in the interest and for the benefit of the charterers; and we caunot agree that the payment by them of the damages at Havre was a payment as agents of the ship. so as to conelede the owners, ‘They dealt with the frelgeht moneys not only as the friends but as the agents of the harer- ers, as ix apparent from the accounts between the two houses We think the Court below erred, and that the decree should be reversed, and a deerce entered for the above balance 3

Life Insurance Co. The plaintiff in this case insured his life with the defendants. At the ontbreak of the Rebellion he was residing in Alabama nnd was unable to pay the premiums directly to the defendants, bot paid it to their agent, McCoy. In 1865 he of. fered to pay them the premium for that year, but the defendants refused to receive it on the ground that the policy was forfeited throngh non-payment of the premiums. In 1546 the plaintiff tendered the premiums for the previous five years, which was refused, when the plaintiff brought suit to have the policy de clared valid and binding, ml that he may be reinstated in respect to his rights thereto. The company was a Mutual Company The defendants demurred to this comp'aint that the Conrt had no jurisdiction, and that the fucts did not coustitute a cause of action, The Court has rendered a long opinion, in which, after sug gesting that probably there is no relief which ean at present be granted to the plaintiff, and that it is doubtful whether the Conrt can relieve at all in the cirenmstances, it holds that the facts are not sufticiently stated, and gives judgment on the de murrer, with leave to amend. en SURROGATES COURT —=Dgc.

With regard to what has been done we ean speak with more certainty, The Jamel will cage hans boen disposed of by a trial under certain stipula- tions which made it mersly formal and resulted in the defout of the will. Judge Botts has rendersd a loug opinion in the Mo- teor case, roathirming the former decision of our Courts 14 to the duties of neutrals and deciding the Meteor to have bora in violation of those duties, The courts genorslly have been hard working and an unusual pressure has been brought to bear by them for the dispatch of business The juries. too, daring the last month were more prompt and more easily obtained than Lins been the rule. ‘The Chambers room of the Supreme Court, utterly unfit for the immense amount of business coming to it, hus boen crowded from day to day throughout the term with lawyers gasping for a share of the tw jee and thrice breathed wir.” The crowds that till this room daly prove that the serifice of beaith to duty ix uot yet a lost virtue, but such nn swrifice would seem bardly neccesary in view of the sums given by the city for the dispensing of justioe.

Money is more abundast on call, and at 6 per cent there is a large business, In Commercial paper no change. Best names pass at 6} @7 per cout, The week closes upon a dull market, waiting the report of the Treasury Department and the action of Congress upon financial topics. That the report will be con. servative no one doubts, but it will be hard for Mr. Me- Culloch to express himself in more forcible terms thau were used in 1865, That his statements will have the same dopressing effect upon market values is not to bo ex- pected, snd whatever may be the turn of prices after New Year's, it will excite no surprise if a smart speculation for an advance is not made in Decomber upon the increased supply of capital seeking employment on call at declining rates of interest, and tho common impression that Con. gress will not contract the currency without meeting the strongest opposition from their constituents and the whole debtor comunuunity.

A second feature of the bill was the authorizing of a survey of the route of the Champlain Canal. The advsntages to the commerce of the State which would be secured by the opening of either of these routes cannot be over estimated. It would bring the City of New-York into direct commu- nication with the St. Lawronce and its tributaries, as well as with Lake Ogtario. Beside other benefits, this city would be supplied with lumber from the inexhaustible forests of British America, If the Niagara Ship-Canal ehonlid alse be constructed, a route would thus be furnished for a large class of vessels between the ports on all the great lakes as far 08 Chicago and Milwaukee and the City of New-York, at a large economy of expense, and with out the necessity of breaking bulk, The necessary ex: penditure, it is estimated, would not exceed $10,000,000. The following are the comparative earnings of the Marietta and Cineinnati Raiiroad for the third week in November: 1865. 824,708 1863... 924,772 20 Decrease. $474 20 The Cincinnati Gazette of Thursday says: There was good demand for money to-day, but no pressure and bankers accommodated their customers pretty gencrally ut rates of interest ranging from 9 to 12 per cent. till there is po foreshadowing at present of an easy market, and compara tive stringency mey be expected to continue until after the first of January, when the business of packing hogs shall have close The exchange market advanced to-dny to par baying and 30¢, 1-10 premium selling. The dealin showed strong feeling in the afternoon, with indications of a uniform 1-10 premium selling rie on Fiiday. The exchanges throughout the West are now decidedly in favor of New-York, and consequently currency must, for the present, flow into that center. The Chicago Tribune of Thursday says: Business at the banks generally shows no recovery from the dnliness with which it has been characterized during the past week or ten days, though a fow of the discount bouses re rt a slightly increased demand for acecm tion—mostly in the way of mercantile paper. ‘There is no change in the tono of the warkot. Prime paper is readily negotinted ot 10 per cent— short date Laying the preference, as the banks tobe inn condition to carry the pork crop as soon 4s it fairly begins to move, Outside paper is discounted in the open market at 12@ 18 per cent. according to the standing of the applicants. The senreity of exchange still continnes, and the banks are daily ex pressing eurreney to keep up their balances. The counter rates ure firm at par buying and 1-10 presuun selling. From 7'he Financial Chronicle of Dec, 1: November has been chiefly remarkable for an unsettled con: dition of the markets, the result of a combination of circam- stances. ‘The deficiency of the English harvest, and a conse. quent advance in wheat and flour de have induced an act- ive speculation in bresdstnffs in the West; the result of which line been an extensive holding back of until near the close of navigation, with a rise in prices to almost unprece- dented figures. This hos naturally weed more or less mone- tary dernngement at the western couters of trade. In the merchandise markets a dullness has prevailed. not to bo adequately accounted for from the natural falling off in busi- ness which usually occurs in November. In most ranches of business stocks are found to be larger nt this late period of the Fall bosiness than was anticipated: and as it is not deemed safe to carry over goods st the current high cs, there has been an effort to realize upon both domestic and forvign merchandise at a heavy ows Ay The serious losses upon some Kinds of hate brouzht home to manufacturers the conviction that the current rate of production cansot be sustained concurrently with the existing high range of prices; and there has, econse- qaently, been developed a very general disposition to curtail prosinction. The cotton mills are producing much less, and the woolen manufacturers have very generally resolved upon either closing their mills entirely for u fow weeks, or ueing the time of working to about eight hours per day. The development of this policy hus produced at the close of the month a somewhat im- proved tone in the goods markets; but in mearly every branch of the jobbing trade the disposition, notwithstanding, is to realize upon goods, and to close the year with the est pOs- sible stocks.

The objectof the Association isto encourage all branches of agriculture, including the culture of sugar, coffee, to- bacco, rice, and hemp; also, the mechanic arts, home man- ufactures in every department, and the general advance. ment of rural economy. The value of the property of the Bociety is estimated at more than $200,000, equal to that held by half a dozen Northern States. The opening of the grounds was consecrated by a grand mass; 35 Catholic clergymen were gathered in front of a richly decorated altar; there were 75 pieces of musical in- struments, and 150 lady and gentleman amateur singers. This was followed by prayer, sermons, and addresses, Then the Fair opened, with an exhibition of horses and a race. The list of articles on exhibition was creditable, ncluding improved stock of all kinds, agricultural ma- chipery, farm, floral, and orchard products, specimens of the fine arts, of rude work, musical, philosophical, cLemi- ral, and other instruments, sculpture, paintings, &c. The attendance of ladies is mentioned as being remarkable, aod the papers glow with rapture in describing their beauty. On the whole the Fair seems to have included everything common to Fairs in the Northern States, and in addition, be it remarked, all classes contributed to make 4 most brilliant occasion, and one long to be remem- There were many cultural addresses, They dwelt bn the im of good farming, and on producing within oursel ves, with our varied climate, whatever we peed, so far as possible, that we Europe.

U7 An interesting article upon the Stewart Tenement Houses, the Civil Court Reports, the Monetary Review, and the Markets appear onthe second page of this wssuc the literary items are on the sicth page, and on the third will be found a report af the investigation of the singular arrest of Mrs. Bishop, and the shipping intelligence, We print a full account of the reprieve of the mur- derers of United States soldiers in South Carolina by Mr. Johnson. [It appears to have been an uncalled for interference. Ex-Postmaster-General Dennison has written a letter, elsewhere published, giving advice which, coming from an old Cabinet associate, may be well received by Mr. Johnson, Our Washington correspondent states that the Presi- dent's Message will not hold out the olive branch to Congross, but will rather make proposals likely to in- troduce new dissension, We shall know what are Mr. Johnson's intentions by to-morrow. Mr. Stevens intends to introduce into the House a bill, of which we present the sections, intended to restrain and regulate the President's power of appoint- ment and removal. The provisions are strict and comprehensive, and one prevents the President from appointing an officer previously rejected by the Senate. The Fenian troubles are coming closer home to En- gland. Such is the excitement among the large krish population of Liverpool and Glasgow that it is thought advisable, as a measure of precaution, to send troops to those places. Meanwhile martial law has been proclaimed in Limerick, and reénforcements, both military aud naval, continue to be dizpatched to Ireland. A statement comes to us from Mexico by way of San Francisco, to the effect that the French are mn favor of Ortega’s claims to the Presidency. Gen. Bazaine is said to bave been supplying arms and am- munition to the opponents of Juarez, and to have promised that provided they use them against Juarez, the partisans of Ortega will not be interfered with by the French forces, A great Reform demonstration takes place in Lon- don to-day. The Government, profiting, it would seem, by the lessons of the last few weeks, has given orders that the military shall be confined strictly within their barracks during the day. Evidently they feel that it would be perilous to trifle any more with the feelings of the people on the question of Parlia- mentary Reform. By this time they must be con- vinced that the people are in earnest, and determined upon having their rights. Our Consul-General in Egypt, Mr. Hale, has given the Government the important information of the ar- rest of John H. Surratt, a man of whose connection with the assassination of Mr. Lincoln and escapefrom justice, little is known but enough to cause intense interest. We recently printed a cable dispatch that Surratt was in the military service of the Pope. 1Itis now stated that he was seen on a European steamer shortly after Mr. Lincoln's death, and then spoke freely of his part in the crime, and it is very possible that his trial willl lead to new revelations. Mr. Boutwell, in the Republican caucus on Saturday, made the startling assertion that, while search was being made for Surratt, Mr. Johnson knew where he was hidden. THE OPENING OF CONGRESS, “The Congress of the United States in reassembling to-day bas the assurance that the people fully sustain its past action in regard to the Rebel States, and de- gire that it shall enforce the principles which tri umphed at the recent elections, whatever new form may be chosen to embody them. Congress meets victorious! after the struggle with the Presi- dent. His grave doubts of its Constitutionality have been answered by the power which makes Con- stitutions, and his opinion that Messrs. Stevens and Sumner were traitors has not prevented the election to the XLth Congress of a two-thirds majority of men who believe in their cardinal principles, If the elections mean anything, it is that Congress is em- phatically authorized by the people to make the doctrines of freedom the conditions upon which the Rebel States may resume tneir places in the Union, and that Mr. Johnson's plans have been ut- terly condemned, What is usually meant by com- promise would be, therefore, a concession on the part of Congress unnecessary and unfaithful. It is in- structed to yield no jot of principle, and, from the tone of the Republican caucus on Saturday, it is evi- dent that the majority in the House fully appreciate the force of the national indorsement. But, though compromise with the President is not called for, it would be unjust to consider it certain that Mr. Johnson desires or expects it. In opposition to the people he is powerless, and by their will be has, on countless occasions, declared it his intention to abide. That will has been so positively and clearly expressed that the President cannot help understand- ing it, upon his own pledges, and is bound to obey it. His policy of immediately admitting the Rebel States, and conceding to them that the Rebellion did not de- prive them of the right to representation, will no doubt be abandoned; nor will he continue to assert that the exclusion of Southern Representatives makes uncon- stitutional the acts of Congress affecting the Southern States. All this, as a servant of the people, he is bound to yield. Mr. Johnson, in his message, may, a3 he bas the perfect right to do, accept the decision of the people as his guide, and yet suggest to Congress another plan for carrying it out in fidelity. We de- giro that Congress shall take no steps to renew un- necessary dispute, but that it shall consider that the elactions have established peace in the Government till it is known whether war is meant, Three policies of reconstruction will probably be urged in this session: that of the Constitutional Amendment without further addition; the policy of treating the Rebel States as Territories and reéstab- lishing Provisional Governments, and that of Impar- tial Suffrage and Amnesty, Until Congress has given definite shape to the spirit of the people, as expressed at the polls, there will be but little interest taken in other great questions that must not be neglected. Our Mexican relations should be made, the subject of early and thorough inquiry. ‘We have repeatedly deelared our opinion of the true course to be pursued. The revision of the Tariff is a duty imposed upon Congress by the condition of the country, and the ex- perience of the year ought to resuit in the correction of the mistakes of the last session, An earnest effort will be made, we trust, to form some satisfactory plan for a return to specie payments. The dignity of the nation requires that the history of the New-Orleans massacre should be thoroughly searched, and that Congress, standing above the Civil Courts of Louisi- ana, should assert thelaws they have contemned. Nor should the disgrace of the long imprisonment of Jeff, Davis, without a trial, be overlooked or permitted. A great responsibility rests upon Congress, ad we believe it has the intelligence and courage to sistain it. We have made little progress in the restoration of the inter-relations of the country, and somewhere there has been a vast mistake in the whole policy of reconstrnetion. The experience of two years should be a sufficient guide to more practical wisdom. With all its difficulties, Congress meets now with a better opportunity and more power to establish per- manent order and prosperity out of corfusion than it has bad at any period since the war We believe it will use its advantages with prudence and ability. THE CHARTER ELECTION. On Tuesday next the people of New-York are to vote for a Controller, and Aldermen, Councilmen, and School Commissioners, offices which contain the very seat of the offense against which an overtaxed community has for so many years protested and pe- titioned. Knowing this, it is a wonder that asy body of our citizens are content to let the November verdict in favor of the State decide for them that they bave done enough for the city, and permit, by their indifference, the election of the very men nzainst whom the vote which elected Gov. Fenton was in- tended as a blow. We do not expect that every can- didate for Reform can be elected in districts where majorities on the side of fraud are to be reckoned casily; but it is urgently important that no dis- trict where success is at all possible should be ne- glected and lost, The nomination of three men with such names in the vulgate as The Allen, Mike Norton and Oney Geoghan,” shows that the friends of public robbery hold out to us the hope of improvement, either in kind or degree, and will accommodate us with bald men in office as long as any number of their fellows can be drummed to the polls to vote their tages into the pock- ets of pilferers. The three gentlemen named are doubtless among the candidates to whom Major Hoff- man alluded in his Saturday night's speech as not fit to be chosen. For the records of such would-be Aldermen as Mr. Theodare Allen, we refer public inquiry to the Police Gazette, If men who have been tried in our courts for larceny, assault and battery, and bounty jumping, and have graduated from prison, are proper candidates for Aldermen, by all means let the honest voters of this great metropo- lis vote to have their pockets picked openly. We are glad that, on the other hand, the candidates for Reform, supported by the Republican party, the Citizens’ Association, and honest bodies of Damocrats, who prefer a pure administration of local government, are in many respects superior to any local ticket ever presented to the voters of New-York, Such men as Eugene Ward, Don Alonzo Cushman Martin Thatcher, Robert C. Brown, James Horan, and Councilmen White and Pulluan, the two latter distinguished as veteran opponeats of the Ring,” represent as candidates for the Board of Aldermen a respectability, honesty and influence to which that body is at present utterly a stranger, When men of this class enter our local politics it is from a high sense of duty, and an earned purpose to serve and not swindle the public, The nomination of Don Alonzo Cushman, one of our worthiest and wealthiest citizens, is evidence of how mnch is at stake in the election of officers whose legishtion is to increase or lessen our already enormous ‘axes, In the same way, the nominations of such well-known citizens as Smith Bloomfield aud Col. Mason certi- fy the sterling character ot our School ticket. All these nominations should receive the hearty and united support of respectable voters, Especially should an able and honest Controller, pledged to a sweeping reform of the abuses of his office, be chosen. By experience, capacity, and standing as a citizen, no caudidate Las more claims to the office than Jddge Richard Kelly. Let every friend of metropolitan reform and progress contribute to his Alection, and that of the whole ticket, and thus bring us nearer to the day when the Government of this great city shall be redeemed. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS. Mr. Halstead, editor of The Cincinnati Commercial, and Mr. White, editor of The Chicago Tribune, feel moved to write us a letter in defense of Mr. Craig, our ignomiuiously dismissed agent. We are of course glad to give these distinguished journalists all honor, and their statement has been carefully considered. We regret that we did them seeming injustice, We think the injustice was only seeming. The trouble with these gentlemen is that, coming to New-York on Press business, they find themselves more concerned with the success of the Craig speculation and more angious to build up a monopoly in Cincinnati, St. Louis and Chicago, to the detriment of growing cities like Detroit, than to attend to what would seem to us to be the real object of their mission. If Mr. Craig had paid these men to do his work they could not have done it better. The Associated Press here was asked to abandon its organization and to surrender a business that had cost many hundreds of thousands of dollars, and which now costs the daily New-York journals thousands of dollars per week, into the hands of a charlatan and adventurer, who was dismissed because we could not trust him, merely to accommodate certain gentlemen who pay the merest fraction of the expense. Thus the news which costs The Chicago Tribune about seventy dollars per week costs Tie NEw-YoRE TriBUNE more than five hund- rod; for the seven journals in New-York composing the Associated Press pay as much themselves as the combined Western Press. These gentlemen mistake entirely when they say the New-York Associated Press was willing to sell us all the news we wanted, coupled with restrictions that did not regard quantity.” The Associated Press does not sell news, and certainly no anxiety was or is felt to make the sale of news a busiress. We had merely an organization which gave us news, and if our neighbors wanted our news they might pay one-third the cost and take as much as tiey pleased at that rate. We could not enter into competition with any private business, because the rules of our Associ- ation prevented. As we have said, this Committee kas been more anxious to serve Mr, Craig and destroy the Associated Press than to attend to its own business. Here is a card, for instance, which Mr, Horace White sees proper to send to a paper in Troy, New-York, a paper which he does not represent; “New-York, Dee. 1, “J. M. FRANCIS, esq. Editor Troy Times, N. Y. “The real phy of this fight is whether we shall have 3 a eo Eo f Cincimati, Chie St. Louis, and other Western tie yepresenting 4 larger pv tal than the New-York Associated Press, will fight to the end of the chapter, and will win, too, If you wish to achicee independence, now ie your time, Hokack Wiis, Editor of The Chicago Tribune,” This card plainly shows the real philosophy" of Mr. White and Mr. Halstead. We an scarcely imagine anything more impertinent tlan for the editor of a Western paper to attempt to manage the affairs of a newspaper printed in New-York, and it would be dificult to write a statement more disin- genuous than this, Mr, Craig has tte reputation of putting about the smallest amount)f truth in any given quantity of writing of any fentleman with whom we are in correspondence, and ve fear that Mr. White bas not been uninjured by the new relations, He and his comrade have decided upon their policy. We can frankly assure them that thatpolicy does not in the least affect the existence of the Associated Press. The Western press will probally find it easier to leave our Association than to mturn. We are anxious, however, that the journals in the West, which these gentlemen have so unvorthily repre- sented, should know the truth, Hen we say what we say, and trust that we shall have occasion to speak no more about it. HIGH DEBATE IN OXFORD. It is very droll—-a party of undergraduate gentlo. men in the tremendous exereise of pre-baccalaurcate wisdom, discussing, as they have lately done ina de- bating society in Oxford, England, the question Whether Mr. John Bright is or is not a reproach to the country that gave him birth?” We admit that the subject of the debate, for the reason thatit has a present and living interest, 1s somewhat more sensible than most of those which usually divide college de- ties, such as, Which was the greatest bating socie 1 7 general, Julius Caesar or the Duke of Wellingtor “Which was the wisest man, Solon or Pericles” or even the fine old stock subject, Did the French Rey- olution do more good than harm?” But the English of modern times pride themselves, and perhaps justly, upon their common sense, and of all common- sense men of the United Kingdom, Mr, Bright is the foremost. About his patriotism there is no false glitter; in his advocacy of reforms which are vitally necessary there is no self-seeking; he is neither a place-hunter nor a pensioner a fawner upon the great nor a flatterer of the common people; he is more than a Member of Parliament=he is a representative, in the House of Commons or out of it, of the great mid- dle cise, of its energy, its prosperity, its intelligence, and its humanity; and depending as England is at this moment for its national existence upon that class, it is bard to see how its leader can in any respect be “a reproach to the country. If Mr. Bright were a bor- ough-mongering peer, a pluralist clergyman, a cham- pion of high corn and of low wages, of restricted suf- frage and of unrestricted land titles, of education for the well-born and of ignorance for the lowly, of Irish slavery and a domineering Church Establishment, of laws for the preservation of game, of simony and of ginccures—if this great man were all that in this nine- teenth century he should not be, bigotly conservative, femininely timid, and with guicta non movere" for- ever on his lips, he would be adored in Oxford as, in that seat of learning and of lumber, so many thick- headed and purblind respectabilities have been exalted into demi-godship. Reproach! A college which idol- ized Lord Eldon cannot be expected to entertain any overweening affection for Mr. Bright! There are several things, it must be allowed, which this able gentleman has omitted to do, and which, if he had done them, might have rendered him lustri- ous. He has run away with nobody's wife—he has never transported a poor devil for shooting his rabbits —Nhe has never sworn to a creed which he did not be- lieye—he has never voted for wars to bolster up a de- caying ministry=he has not scolded the Ame: cas for exercisipg the natural right of self-preservation— he has never played high at White's nor betted at the Derby —he has never sold his birthright of free thought aud free speech for a mess of pottage—he has never hung upon the apron-strings of bishops nor been daz- 7led by the epaulettes of generals—he has never by smooth speech and fair promise won the hearts of the people only to betray them—he has been neither Idle nor luxurions, neither a contractor of debt nor a pleader of privilege. In all these qualities and re- spects he differs from several men who have never been considered areproach” to the country, but who bave been written down in history its safeguards and its ornaments—men whose Latinized names are re- splendent upon the rolls of Oxford—men who have been doges and senators while living, and who have been carried to snug corners of Westminster Abbey when dead. The political annals of England are full of personal bargains—but Mr. Bright isneither a Bubb Doddinigton nor an Eldon, and has never trafficked either his popularity or his unpopularity for a peerage. A very discreditable course indeed—if peerages were all! An Englishman who points out the sources aud the secret of English decay is entitled to the credit, and will probably meet with the fate of a discoverer. He may rescue the land from mortal evils, but he will be very spicily abused for doing it. This to him, how- ever, is a matter of small consequence. It would, probably, fill the gbosom of mauy a square-toed Don with horror to know how little Mr, Bright thinks of what they think of him in Oxford, or how little he cares whether they think of him at all. Men who are merely scholarly, however great they may be in the cloisters, will play but an unimportant part in that great British revolution which is impending. The work aud the power will be in the hands of those who have a capacity for public affairs, like Mr. John Bright. THE DANGERS OF PETROLEUM, The disastrous petroleum fire of Friday night last revives the question of its dangers and the way to avoid them. During the early days of the petroleum excitement, when lawmakers knew no more of its properties and peculiarities than did the general public, a law was passed forbidding the storage of petroleum of less than a certain gravity, which met the point of danger much as would a law forbidding the handling of gunpowder whose grains were not of an established coarseness. The explosive quality in petroleum is benzole, which exists to a greater or less degree in all gravities of the crude oil except the lubricating oils. In some of the lighter oils of Western Pennsylvania the proportion of henzole is nearly or quite 25 per cent. The first action in the refining process is to remove this benzole, which should then be thrown away, or, at most, only used for fuel. The largest and best-known refiners never retain this ingredient in their oils, justly considering it too dan- gerous to be tampered with, There are unscrupulous refiners, however, who add this benzole to their re- fined oil to increase its bulk and their consequent profit, and it is this oil, containing large proportion of benzole, which explodes and brings discredit npon the whole petroleum trade. Oil properly refined will extingnish a burning brand as quickly as water, aud such oil only should be sold, One simple law would regulate the question of dan- ger from oil explosions. Let the law enact that po- licemen or other officers shall test all oil offered for sale, by putting a lighted watch to a vessel containing it. If it extinguishes the match, it is safe; it it ex- plodes, let the oil be seized and confiscated as danger- ous. Tho rapacity of unscrupulous manufacturers or dealers should not be allowed to endanger the lives and property of honest men. We now especially warn the friends of good gov- ernment and city reform to be on the alert ta do their duty next Tuesday. There is great danger that had men will slip into office, through the prevalent apathy in regard to the coming election. This election is one of greater importance, in many respects, to our tax-paying community, than the State election just passed, Therefore, we urge upon every voter the importance of giving few moments of his time at the polls on Tuesday next. By such effort only can we demonstrate our capacity for local self-govern- ment, Mr. Albert D. Richardson of Tue TRIBUNE has in press a new volume of adventure, called Beyond the Mississippi,” It will contain 500 large octavo pages, and 200 illustrations from original photographs and sketches, and from the pencils of Bierstadt, Hennessy, White, Eytinge, Nast, Foun, Perkins, Wand, and other American artists of repute. Mr. Richardson bore a part in the Kansas Border Warfare, was a pioneer among the Colorado gold mines, and has spent several years in the other new States and Territories. Readers of THE TRIBUNE are already familiar with his picturesque descriptive writing, and his valuable and sagacions observations npon the life, resources and industries of the Far West. The Pacific Railroad, welding its iron links with marvelous rapidity, will in five years make San Francisco near neighbor to New-York. Then we shall have no pioneers, no Far West, no wild romance of half-barbarian existence, and frontier life will be a past phase of our national civilization. We are con- fident that Mr. Richardson's new book will, by its faithful transcription and its multiplied pictures, admirably illustrate this fleeting period, His Field, Dungeon and Escape” has nearly reached a sale of 100,000 copies—a success nnapproached by any other book of War experience. Beyond the Mississippi” is issued (by subscription only) by the American Pub- lishing Co. of Hartford, Conn. We understand that the publishers pay Mr. Richardson $7,000 for the manuscript, OUR MERCHANT MARINE. The objections to any 100 strict supervision in de- tail by the General Government over our mercantile marine are simple, and such, first, because the Govern- ment cannot afford to convert our merchant service into a navy, man each vessel with salaried inspectors of every kind, and generally undertake the charge of it. We see it proposed that a law should be passed guaranteeing two or three men to every one hundred tuns registered, thus making impossible such disasters as result from an in- adequate crew. To this we have no objection. But itis also suggested that inspectors, carpenters, machinists, and practical seamen should be appointed to examine every part of the vessel, from spars and rigging to engines and boilers, and that these officers must sign a certificate before each voyage of every sca- going vessel that she is stanch and seaworthy. Then each crew is to be mustered and inspected likewise, and examined by a regularly appointed surgeon: the boats are to be overhauled, and compass, bread, water, rockets aud blue-lights, sars, thole-pins, plugs, rudders, tillers, mast and sail, and painters, are to be looked for and looked into, and apparatus of the most approved kind to be insisted upon in all cases. Finally, every captain and officer must be obliged to pass an examination in navigation and seaman- ship, and be furnished with a certificate as to capability, With some of these suggestions we can find no fault, but conceive their application might be possible without so much com- plication of method, The passage of a law regulating the number of crews, and a more efficient registry of vessels may be easily practicable. But it is manifest that the whole plan proposed for inspecting each ship on its every voyage from any and every port of the United States must entail very great expense, and some unquestionable disadvantages to Government and owners. In this country of free labor and free seamanship. military discipline cannaf be attained in our merchant marine, and the inspection of a crew that is liable to be changed, mn part, at least, in every port, is, to say the least, impracticable. Government inspectors would be multiplied by the thousaud, who might cer- tify, but would scarcely inspect, to the extent con- templated. A law that would hold owners of sea- going vessels to strict accountability for loss of life and property, with the certainty of the infliction of proper penalties for violations of its provisions, would be more likely to work the much-needed reform. Perhaps the most important position in this State is that of Controller of the City and County of New- York. If be is an honest man, having a single eye to the interests of the citizens of the metropolis, he can cause the reduction of the burdens imposed upon the tax-payers at least one-third, He can do this by seeing that the franchises of the City, its ferries, mar- kets, wharves and piers and real estate, bring fair and remunerative returns to the City Treasury; as also that no warrants for stealing jobs shall receive his signature, That Richard Kelly, the Union-Repabli- can candidate, is eminently qualified for the discharge of the duties of this office, is generally and warmly conceded. We trust that no Union man, tax-payer or citizen, who desires a good, economical and ener- getic City Government, will fail to deposit his ballot for Judge Kelly on Tuesday next. The Republican party, as reorganized in this city, has no affiliation with any of the officials whose nests are in the City Hall. Neither of the Democratic candidates for Controller can, if elected, escape, sooner or later, the influence of his party associates now in office. Judge KerLy will and must be inde- pendent of them all. He is, from the force of cireum- stances, not so much the Republican as the People’s candidate. The office is one that needs such reforma. tion as Judge Kelly will be in a position to thoroughly and fearlessly carry out. THE SOUTHERN STATES.

RE a JUDGE BUSTEED'S CHARGE—A PROFOUND SENSATION ~—REBELS TO BE INDICTED=—=OPINIONS ON THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT, From Our Special Correspondent, HUNTSVILLE, ALA, Nov. 24.—Judge Busteed's charge to the Grand Jury impsnneled in this district on Wednes- day last, has created s profound impression here, The gen- tlemen recently in amued rebellion do not stomach it, but the Boys in Blue,” and the chosen band who never bowed the knee to Baal, are jubilant, and have taken fresh cours age.
