FY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE. Wasnixarox, Wednesday, Dee. 5, 1866, The rejection by the Seuate yesterday, of the Heuse bill to repeal the act of 1862, enlarging the pardoning power of the President, has produced a most painful feeling among the Radical members of the House, together with the defeat of Mr. Sumner's effort to get up the District of Columbia Suffrage bill, by a tech- nical objection. It bas created an apprehension that the Senate may prove reluctant to follow the courageous lead of the House. In the latter case, it was Mr. Reverdy Johnson who obstructed the proposed act of justice. In the former, it was Mr. Fessenden of Maine, but earnest Scna- tors assure me that neither of these leaders will long be potent to retard the beneficent legislation which the Radical majority has resolved upon. That majority regrets profoundly that at this outset of the session any mancuver should have bronght upon the Senate the odium of an apparent weakness of pur- pose. It is believed that next week will show a bet- ter record, and it is hoped that no member ranking with the Union majority will be found giving aid aud comfort to its enemies. Nothing importaut was done in the Senate to-day. session lasted but an hour and a half. Nearly the first thing done was the revision of committees for the session. Doolittle was displaced from the head of the Committee on Indian Affairs, and Henderson was put in his stead. Dixon was removed from the Chairmanship of Post-Offices and Post Roads, and Ramsey was substituted. Cowan was dropped from the Finance Committee and from the Chairmanship of Patents. Other unimportant changes were made. Mr Wade introduced a bill for the admission of Ne- braska. It will be remembered that this was passed during the closing hours of the last session, and was made the subject of a pocket veto—not being returned up to the time of adjournment. It will be pressed to a speedy vote aud, if it can be, passed over the Presi- dent’s head, as it will undoubtedly be vetoed again. The two Scnators thus gained will be immediately called on to belp in averriding the Colorado veto, which is still before the SBeuate. The bill to repeal the President's amuesty power was up to-day on a motion to refer. Mr. Chandler spoke against the reference, and in favor of immediate pas- re. He reiterated hig charge that pardons were peddled on the streets by women of doubtful repute, and agreed to prove it by the records of the criminal courts of the District. He alluded, 1 suppose, to the trial of Lafayette Baker for assault and battery on one Mrs. Cobb, which @curred here last Summer. The bill was finally referred. Mr. Sumner then in. troduced the recoustruction resolutions, of which he had given notice yesterday, and they were ordered to be printed. Ben Wade called up a resolution, offered by him last session, proposing to amend the Constitution by hibiting the rcélection of President or Vice-Pres- nt of the United States, or of a Vice-President acting as President. He made a very temperate and judicious speech, ot reflecting ou the present Execu- tive at all, but taking the ground that all men who bad occupied the Presidential office in the last thirty or forty years had used Government patronage to secure reélection. The resolution was reforred to the Judiciary Committee. The resolution to continue the Reconstruction Committee was concurred in, and a number of bills that had been lying on the table awaiting the formation of the Committees were ap- priately referred. It is reported by Mr. Samner’s friends that he in- tends to bring up a resolution leoking to the with- drawal of the Franco-Mexican question from the hands of the President and Mr. Seward, aud placing it in those of Congress. Mr. Summer is Clalbiman of the Senate Foreign Committee, The House was in session only a couple of hours to. day. Immediately after the reading of the Mr. Willis of vania brought before the House aud moved the reconsideration of his bull, re- at the last session of Congress, in relation to removals om office. He occupied the close atten- tion of the House for over an hour in an elaborate and able legal argument, showing plainly that the Presi. dent had no power to reappoint to office those per- sons whose appointments had once been rejected by the Senate. When he had dove, he was warmly congratulated for his forcible and able speech. Schenck of Obio and Wilson and Kasson of Towa gave notice of amendments to perfect the bill, which were ordered to be printed and laid over till to-morrow. Mr. Lawrence of Ohio reported a bill from the Judiciary Committee looking to prospective treason trials. It provides that no man shali be dis- ified from becoming a juror in a United States ourt who bas formed an opinion on a case from newspaper reports and ramors, provided the Court deems him otherwise competent. The bill was ordered to be printed and laid over. A Lill which the Senate last session, giving the President Jamel the power to appoint Pension agents, where they may be in his opinion necessary, was reported by Mr. Perham of Maine. There was general oppo- sition to giving the President any more appointing ers, snd both Messrs. Washburn and Farnsworth of Illinois, desired to have the bill so amended as to reject the recent appointments of Pension agents to be sent to the Senate for confirmation. Mr. ¥Farus worth stated that one of the most notorious Copper- heads in Illinois had been appointed Pension agent. The bill was recommitted to the Committee It is the intention of the Committee of Ways and Means to bring forward one or two important finan. cial measures at an early day. A few members of the committee are in favor of action in this direction before the holidays. At the regalar meeting of the Republican Associa- tion of the District, A. Boswell was elected as the choice of the Association to fill the vacaucy in the National ublican Executive Committee occa- wioned by the secession of J.J. Combs. Judge Waffles of Louisiana addressed the Association reviewing the President's Message, taking ground in favor of an Enabling act recorganizing the seceded Btates with universal suffrage all loyal men, but pot universal amnesty. A large number of loyalists, representing all the Southern States, have formed a anent association in the city and elected officers. Fhe object of the union is to discuss at their regular meeting matters relating to their several States, com- pare views, make suggestions, &c. One of the most prominent incentives of the members is to present lligently to Congress, from time to time, such views and experiences as they way have had, and to make known to Cougress the wishes and needs of the loyal Southern people, and to petition for such action as wil best serve the interests of the people they represent. At a meeting of the Association Jast evening speeches were made by the Hon. Thos. J. Durant and Mr. Ferpandez. The latter said that he had been assured by prominent members of Congress that if the loyal people of the Southern States would petition Congress to give them territorial governments, and allow them to return to the Union under the Euabling act, showing at the same time it was the wish of the loyal people of the Bouthern States to do so, that a bill would be passed 30 place the uid States iu such a condition, The brought up in the caucus to-night. The Conservative ph and Navy Union, which society adopted resolutions in favor of negro suffrage two weeks since without opposition, repealed those resolutions last night, on the ground that, as that or- ganization professed 10 support Andrew Johnson, it stultified itself by adopting resolutions in favor of Depo i ics e monthly public debt statement is not yet read for publication. It will show very little Tel vad from that for October, owing 10 the fact of $24,000,- 000 in coin having been out as interest on 5-20 bonds, and as the regular disbursements for the last month, will probably absorb the receipts, The amount of gold thus far dispozed of by order of the Bowtelary of the Treasu tween $4,000,060 aud $e 000,000. Tt is not Mr. McCulloch's p to sel freely of his gold, but in small amounts, and for the present probably bis sales are over except in a very small way. Mr. Boutwell’s hill recommending the public sale of $2,000,000 gold per week Ly the is much discussed, but serious doubts are expressed of its passage. The bill is now in the bands of the Ways and Means Committee, some of the mem- bers of which have already expressed their opposition to the measure, The Becretary of the Treasury is preparing for transmission to Congress a bist of oflicers of the De. is POLOLL wii wise woul abbibg bay able, Gd woly wbaenid ond Sebonoh Es ateviuiou wis Jud ou LLC Lvbuians whith GLMMIGS of JOLL BEELIus MOVE LGU pomnvie GRRE KU) Onto be bt abbtd Blade wel whose nominations have not been confirmed by the Senate. The U. 8. Claims Commission last month received 114 claims against the Government. Of this number, 25 have been allowed and 33 rejected. Among those not granted were claims from several Southern churches for damages occasioned by our troops during the Rebellion. Gov. Seward was at the Capitol to-day, and had a protracted interview with several leading Senators, It is said he is a good deal exercised about Mexican matters, One thing is almost certain, the Secretary was informed of the fact that neither the Senate nor the House Committees on Foreign Affairs are going to take any action one way or the other for the present. They are going to wait and see what the Emperor intends to do about the withdrawal of the French troops. Mr. Seward, it appears, was not cc.» sulted, and knew nothing about the language which the President employed in speaking ot the conduct of Napoleon in not complying with the agreement to withdraw French troops, and it is said that Mr, ¥ew- ard has explained this to M. Montholon, the French Minister, who took exception to langonage contained in the message. There is a prospect of quite an animated session of the Sapreme Court this Winter, The United States are parties in a number of important cases—many of them valuable prize cases on appeal. For the Govern- ment, of course, Mr. Stansbery, the Attorney-General, and Mr. Ashton, his assistant, appear, and they will be busily occupied through the session in seeing to the interests of the United States. A case of great importance was presented to-day to the Court of Claims. It arises out of the seizuics made more than a vear ago of Highwines manufac« tured by Jos. A. Shamberg, a distiller at Dubuque, lowa. The Secretary of the Treasury compromised the suit for the forfeiture of the property seized, and permitted the release of the property upon the pay- ment of the taxes which had been frandulently with- held, The seizing officer brought an action in the Court of Claims to recover a moiety of the sum so paid into the Treasury, claiming that the Secretary of the Treasury had no authority to release the moiety which the law gives to the informer, and that what- ever sum was recovered by the Government was for the benefit of the iuformer as well as the Government, The case was agreed on the part of the petitioners by Montgomery Blair, Mr. Dirch and Mr, William Dushenuer, and on the part of the Government by Mr. Ward, Assistant-Solicitor, and Mr, Norton, Solicitor for the Court of Claims, The amount involved is over £100,000, The Retrenchment Committee are at work upon a bill regulating the civil service, with a view to pre- vent abuse of patronage by the Executive. The published statement that tne appointment of J. C. G. Kennedy as Commissioner ot Agriculture would be sent to the Senate next week, 18 unauthorized and incorrect. Madame Ristori and ber family had the bonor of a private reception to-day by the President, Khe was received by the ladies of the White House in the bine réomw, and in the course of a few minutes the Presi dent gine in and cordially welcomed the great tragic gueen. After a lively chat the President withdrew, aud Ristori was conducted by the ladies over tbe con- servatory, and shown the various rooms of the White House and the surrounding grounds. Comnissioner Newton. of the Agricultural Bureau, who bas been very sick with fever for the past months, rode out yesterday for the first time, and is vapidly recovering, Commissioner of Internal Revenue Rollins returned from New-Hampsbire this morning, accompanied by Lis family.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.—The Republican caucus to-night was attended by nearly every member of the House and Senate. It remained in session for shout two hours, the proceedings being of a Lighly interesting character. Neve eral members took Mr. Raymond to task for bis temporary desertion from the party, and quite a lively digcussion on the matter was indulged in. The first business in orer was the report of the Committee of Nine appointed at the last caucus to determine upon a course of proceedings for Congress during its present session, The Committee recommended, first, the appointment of a special comuit- tee of three to go to New-Orleans to investigate the facts connected with the riot of lust Summer. This was unavimously adopted with greatopjlavee. Next cane a recommendation for a committee of three to investigate the circumstances attending the murder of three citizens of Maine, serving in the United States army in South Caroling, A full nistory of this murder and all the partics and circumstances connected with it appeared in THEI R1B- UNE of last Monday. ‘This step is intended particelarly by the members of the caucos to ferret ont the abuses of the pardouing power ss excrcised by the President, and to ascertgin the connection of a certain Cabinet officer in pro- curing the release of the murderers, through bis influence at the White Houee, it having been stated publicly that he received $10,000 for Lis services in that matter, It was next recommended that the Committee on Military Aflairs (0- quire into the truth of the allegutious that juen who were on the peusion roll of the ary aud navy in 1860, und who went into the Rebel army and fought through the war, have been reinstated by order of the President or of his agents or subordinates on the pension rolis of the United States since the close of the Rebellion, This was greeted with great applause. It wes recommended and agreed to pass a bill excluding from the Electoral College in 1868 ull States at that time pot represented in Cone gress. The euthusiasm with which this resolution was received was intense, the approval of the members being shown by applause which lasted several mioutes, The next recommendation wae for a committee of three to iu- vestigate what trath there was iu the report that the President hed restored lands forfeited by acts of Congress, aud, lastly, it was agreed to pass a bill that no names should be placed on the rol of the Fortieth Congress from States not represcoted in the preceding Congress or declared entitied to represerti- tion; and providing that no electoral votes shall be counted from any State not represented atthe time in Cou- ress. This wus received with tremendous applause, This u reality ended the business of the causus, Mr. Ashley then rose in Lis seat and said he saw among those present a gentleman who bad figured conspicaously iu the Philadelphia Convention. bis referred to Mr. Raymond, Mr. Keymond then got up iu a nervons man- ner und demanded an explanation, said he wrk row a Union man.

He thought they ter retain him in the party. Mr, Morris of New-York after adverting in severe terms to Mr. Raymond, sald he was still willing to take Lim in, if he was sure of Lis repent ence.

WELCOME TO CONGRESS, THE DAY PROCESSION AND THE EVENING BANQUET. From Our Special Correspondent. Wasnixarox, D. C., Dec. 4, 1866. New-York is distant from here about three-quarters of a day by mail; three-quarters of a second by telegraph. The question which 1 have been considering, and have not yet settled to my satisfaction, is whether my laggard pen can send through the laggard mail, so far astern of the lightning, any word that will be worth printing when it reaches your office. Yesterday's daily is as unsavory as last week's pancakes, and a newspaper letter in these high- pressure times is a glass of champagne; 1 doubt if mune carries its bead” to New-York. But yesterday was a day full of national significance, and the open sieve of the telegraph, which aspires only to eatch the most bulky facts, has perhaps left some morsels that will pay for gleaning. The grand welcome” to Congress came nearer being an entire success than many of the friends of Congress anticipated. Some felt that such a demonstration would be rather theatrical; many more saw that it was entirely superfluons, The thought was a patriotic one, of course; but the attempt to emphasize the enthusiastic verdict of twenty millions of people, 1n a city where two. thirds are Rebel ‘mourners and nine-tenths Johnsoniang, was considered sublimely absurd, Several of the most prominent and judicious 1 embers of both Houses depre- cated the movement and declined to participate in it. Lut the young men who had it in hand were not to be talked down; so the demonstration came on—and went ofl—yesterday, with mueh real interest to those who fol- lowed it from first to last—excepting, possibly, the pro- jectors, who wake up this morning to find themselves $1,000 behind efore 11 o'clock the avenues and streets leading City Hall-ward were thronged with companies of whites and ccuntless erowds of blacks, eager to take their places in the procession. It was soon formed, 3,000 strong, cowm- posed chiefly, four-fitths, 1 should say, of negroes. They warched and counter-marched, by sinuous and angular ways, through all parts of the city, Of whites in line there were the Southern Republican Association, composed of loyal men and refugees from every Southern State; the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Union, bearing appropriate banners; the Baltimore Republican City Council and the German Radical Lincoln Club, Of blacks there were the Colore Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Union, bearing aloft their tatte flags inscribed with Petersburg, Fort Wagner, Fort Pil. low, Port Hudson, &e.; the Colored Union Leagues of Washington making a fine appearance; the Colored Lincoly Association; the Sumner Council; the Lincoln Zouavey D'Afrique of Baltimore, in a very picturesque uniform, befiring arms and flags, and many hundred civilians. The negroes of the capital seemed, by common consent, te make u holiday of it, as they do of their Emancipation Anuviversary. They crowded the sidewalks, iuveded the streets, and swarmed like flocks of noisy blackbirds upos all the balgonies and fences. It was a gala aay. ‘The men cond ves with studied circumspectiong the women d t; the children were out im all the glory of yellow frocks and red feathers, The Manne Band—the Dodworth Band of Washington hud eontewptuonsly refused to ledd the procession be cause there were niggers” in it, whereupon the uid gers’ turned out three full brass bands of their ow, whose performance was highly ereditable, ey played all the patriotic and anti-Slavery airs with excellent taste A large party had assembled in front of the White House, thinking that perhaps the eredulous and obseguious darkeys would again pay their respects to His Accidency, but they were mistaken, The freedmen gave Pharaoh Lo opportunity to tell them how he loved them, and how be desired to play the ric of Moses, They were doubtless watched, however, from an upper window, as they swig around the circle, by that great and good man who hss been Alderman, aud Assemblyman, and Congressuas, and Tailor, aud President, and the cup of whose anbition i# alleged 10 be full, 1 way as well say here, what is not generally knows, that Col Hinton, President of the Republican Association here, sudsciously myde a written request on all the heads of Departments for pertission for their clerks to Join wm the demonstration. He was somewhat suiprised at Seer tary MeCulloch's giving bis clerks a balf-holiday for the purpose, Seward also ri I nded favorably —after the pro- cession had reached the Capitol! Browning refused bis consent, on the ground that it was “a partisan demon. stration.” About forty Treasury clerks turned out, lat gal} eleven had the courage to sccowpany the procession Ck. At the East front of the Capitol 5,000 people had assen- bled—mostly negroes. It was a sight tosee’ Every blak face was radiant, and every voice eloquent with joy. Sua cheers! The negroes never give three cheers; they #x- prep their approval in a wild, broken yo, je fleets oho wed ha dan udiins of times, from scording to tha exciting enuse. Al fia of the speeches of Now. CoMax, Cartter, Kelley, and Yates was greeted with aa enthusiastic shout, Perhaps the shouts were not always discriminating; but it is to be remarked that, instead of being intended for a definite ap- proval of particular sentiments, those cheers might be pretty accurately translated thas: You have made us free; you have given us our wives and children; you are going to give us the ballot. Hurrah for you! The occasion was thoroughly dra watic, and I fonud that 1 could stand it to be elbowed and to have my tender toes trodden on by ponderous negroes, with more eomposure yesterday than ever before. Perhaps they were rather obtrusive, now and then, in crowding into the very best places along the marsle portico: but they have been trodden on so long and so recently that it is not surprising that they should instinctively assert their new prnvileges with something like ostenta- tion. Perhaps the black warshals and their aids, on their gully caparisoned wilk-white horses, did put on airs” to a slightly perceptible extent; but a good saddle ons hand- some horse always makes a while man vain —and this was assuredly a meeting of the fricnds of “equal nghts!” What a contrast to those who kuew Washington before the war. How could 1, standing there, fail to remember the shackles and wlops; the infants sold under the shadows of the capiioh the dreary, dismal, wretched slave-pen of Washington, now turned into a conservatory, and abloom with all the glories of the floral Kingdom; the filthy slave-auction corral of Alexandria, now renewed asd become n busy school for freedmen; the bright Autumn morning of 1863 when Burnside's black corps filed down Fourteenth-st, —thousands of negro soldiers, with banners aud bayonets flashing iu the sun, going eagerly forth ‘o battle for a pation that had doue nothing but oppress them, and that, even then, declined to pay them, and re fused to guarantee them in case of eapture the protection due to prisoners of war. What Lath God wrought.” The speeches were of a high order. Judge Cartte's wldress of welcome, though bricf, was appropriate, earnest and cloguent, aud Speaker Coifax’s response was direst aud npcompromising, These you have published, but yeu cannot convey to your readers an idea of the enthusiasm with which they were received, and which the hopeful blacks bore back up the aveuue with them, THE BANQUET, The supper to Congress in the evening was given in tie baru-like structure at the foot of Reventh-st., erected br the Sanitary Fair long ago. You have published most of che speeches, sod 1 need not repeat them, The nmmerse building was elaborately and tastefully decorated, Sus wnded from the roof were the flags of the United States, exico, CLili and Switzerland, the Geran flag of liberty, the tricolor, and a magnificent Fenian flag. The last was the most conspicuous, being of heavy green silk, borderd with gold fringe, and having on one side the sunburst’ aud on the other the harp of En, gorgeously en- blazoned. Evergreens were festooned about the hall. Back of the spacious platform was arranged a table describing an are, back of which, and on the concave side, sat the Chairman and assistants. In frout of the platform was a straight table—a chord 10 the are— wesigued to the reporters, and from this extended fire tablee down the hell, capable of seating 600 guests, The most consplenous of thedecorations was nn arrances went of statuettes, representing Luwancipation, dispia od back of and above the Claunuen, This wos the pastas of-puris wodel of a marble group, relieved upon uw inlune ture entablature and frieze, designed for the pediment of he Senate wing of the Capitol, a cotupanion-picee to the Plo- ress of Civilization, which already adorns the south wig. The central figure is the Genius of American, representd by a winged female figure, clad in un etherial garment, ad robed in the revolutionary flag. Under hor advanced fot is a crushed crown, the emblem of her birth, A swordis suspended from her waist, and on ber brow is a wroat, significant of victory aud virtue; while around her daisof state are strewn the emblems of the urts aud sciences. In her left hand she holds the broken shackles. She stanls anid the gravee of the wartyrs, aud is directly at the side of a tomb, cenotaphie to Mr. Lincoln, the guardian of the slain loyalists. Her attention is directed to the boul. men at her right, as though in proclamation of free dom. In this direction a young athletic negro and a bright quadroon girl are exposed on the auction-blak for sale. The latter is dejected; the former heaps the proclamation and smiles upon his fetters, Further on are an aged woman worn ont with toil in the eanebrake, tvo children in the rice tield, and an old man picking cotter upon whose alert ear the song of freedom has fullen Le histensdto it, A colored soldier sits under the cornlee binding up Is wounds. On the other Loud are repre- sented the freed. First a man frown whom the shacks have been strack bows ot the tomb of Lincoln, Becoud, a slave girl, with outstretched arms and upturned eye. From her dark wrists dangle the broken fetters, avd ber dusky face is illumined with freedom. Next isa liberated family circle, a freedman pondering ovr his book, ot his side his industrious wits, and the children happily playing ether. Tle group is very striking Cf more interesting because wrought by Fisk Mills, whose father, the sculptor, Clak Mills, held slaves until relieved of them by national lav. On brackets attached to the posts were busts of President Lincoln, Thad. Stevens, Speaker Colfax, Horace Greeley, Senator Trumbull and others, The tables were well spresd and yell patronized—but what care TRIBUNE readers for that The speaking was the significant part of the banque, and your readers have had the cream of it.

THE RESTORATION OF CONPISCATED PROPIRTY. Mr. WILLIAMS (Rep, Oregon) Introduced the following resolution which was adopted: Pesolved, That the Joint Commitien on Retrenchment be instroctod to make inquiry as to the power of the President to restore propeity confiscated ander the laws of the United States to its gnginal owner, or if such power exists, to what extent it can rightfally be exercised under exist mg lowe; and also to make loquiry Into the power of the Secretnry of the Treasury to defiver to private claimants herefor, without Judicsl proceed ings. property, of the proceeds of property voiaed by the United States. os oo ptured or sbendobed during or sacs the late Rebellion; and report by bilh or otherwise, THE PARDON-RFPRAL BILL. Mr. TRUMBULL (Rep, 111) moved that the House bill to répeal the section of an act of 1562, which gives the President power tq grast a geoeral amuesty, be taken up. It was taken nu Mr Tomson then moved the reference of the Lill to the Committee on the Judiciary Mr CHANDLER (Nep., Me) sald he hoped it woukl not be referyed. The clause proposed to be repealed was io these words Tost the President is hereby authorized, of any time bLerealier, by velamation, to extend to persons who may have participated in the ebeliion a pardon snd smpesty, with such exceptions and st such and 00 such coudithons ss Le may deem expedient (or the pub ore. This ia what is to be repealed. The net before ns simply pro. poses to take nway the pardoning power from the President, except such as be under the Constitution, thot bbl. daring the first half hour of the session, the #0 by the aid of a small ed of Welster. Jenioniug er, except such as he had under the Constitation. f be had the power under the Constitution to pardon before conyietion, It took it away from him. He believed every Sena tor understood it. He would ask the Yeas and Nays on the question of reference, Mr. DOOLITTLE (Dem. Wis.) did not riscfto debate the gues tioh, but simply to correct an error in the yeport of estorday proceedings iu the morning papers. The reporters made lim appear as advoeating the bill under discussion and opposing ite reference. This was not his position. The mistake, evidently was in attributing to Lim remarks made by bis colleague (Mr Howe) Note by the Reporter—The mistake was not in the New-York Aso: ciated Press report. but in that of the bogas Craig Associstior.) Mr. GRIMES (Kep., Town) sald he was not to be deterred by a call for the Yeas and Nuys from insisting upon the enforcement of the rules of the Senate, unless there should be some more substantial reason for setting them aside than had been given by the Seuator from Michigni. He did uot kuow what neces sity there was for passing the bill in such hot haste, The Sen ator from Michigan could not suppose that it would have a good effect upon the country to pass such a measure in a fit of tem per, us it Must be supposed. to pass at this early stage of the session. Nothing could be lost by passing it over for a few days and having it printed, Mr. CHANDLER said it was a notorious fact—as notorious as the records of the Court of law in this District—that pardons had been for sale around this town—fer sale by women—ly more than one woman, ‘The records of your Courts will show this. Any Senator who desires that disgracetul business to co on, of course desires that this clanse stall remain, Any Sen. ator who desires to stop it, desires the repeal of the clanse, This is a matter of public record—a matter that every man knows who has read the new SPapers or i ad the records of the Courts, for 1 bave it from one of the Judges of this Distriet that this bs the fact. No nation was ever so disgraced us this is by sued an act. Mr. HENDERSON (Rep, Mo.) said he voted to take this bill up with a view to Laving it referred to the Committee on Judiciary. He knew of course nothing about the facts stated by the Senator from Michigan, vor did he apprehend that the passage of the bill now betore the Senate Would have any effect iu doing away with the difficulty suggested by that Senator, I'he section proposed to be repealed only authorized the Presi. dent, by public proclamation, to grant amuesty to persous engaged in rebellion, and the complaint of the Senator from Michigan was that private pardons were being hawked through the streets of the city, The repeal of the section alluded to woukl not diminish but increase this particular difficulty, if it existed, as stated, The trouble was not that the President had offered amnesty by Jule proclamation, but that he had granted pardon in individuad cases. That he bad pardoned individuals whom he ought not te have pardoned, was, as he understood it, the complaiutof the Senator from Michigan, He (Henderson) was not prepared to say how he would vote after an examina tion of the bill, but it was a very grave matter involving im. portant constitutional questions, and he hoped it would be re. ferred to the Judiciary Committee. It was not a question of such easy solution as the Senator from Michigan imagined. Mr. DIXON (Dem. Conn.) said he had no wnlior when he came to the Senate this morning of entering into any debate on this question, bat just as he entered the Senate Chamber the Senator from Michigan rose and took® it upon himself 10 say here from Lis own mouth that it was as notorious as the records of the courts of the District, imputing therefore absolute ver. ity that pardons granted by the resident of the United States were for sale in the City of Washington by women of bad ve wate. Since thot charge had been made [on the Senate of the hited Stuteg by so distingulsdsd a Eonator, he thought it wos Very proper and heeoming that the Senate should refer the bil to Uw Judiciary Committee. that the matter might be investi gated; that the Sewite saould not go lore mid jn hot haste and pass such a bil ar tide with sue a chi ge gains the resident of the United States; on charge if true he would uot say rendered the President Liable to impeachment, but still a very ve charge indeed. He, (Dixon), would take it upon Limselt in bis capacity as a Senator here in his place to utterly deny the charge, and to say it was totally unfounded. ‘Uhie Senator from Michigan had been misinformed—he had heen most grossly mis informed. The President of the United States is not capable of the crime which the Senator from Michigan imputes to him. He, (Dixon), did not think it proper that such o charge should o out against the President without some attempt at reply, 1e was not prepared to go fully into the discussion of the bill before the Senate, nor to state before the Senate the real facts out of which this charge against the President has grown. Hut hie could not sit in his seat and hear such a charge without de nying it iu toto, so that Lis denial might go to the country with the assertion of the Scuuator trom Michi nu; and his denial was as good as the Senator's assertion while as he said before, ho was not perfectly conversant with the facts, he knew enough of the case to be nhile to say that the charge was totally untrue. Mr. CHANDLER—I have said that the charge was estab lished before a court of this district. My information was de- rived from one of the judges of the court before which the ease in which it was brought oot was tried. But the attention of the senate and of the country having been brought to the matter, and there befng a general desire here to have the bill relerred, 1 will withdraw the call for the Yeas and Nays, and lot it go, Mr. TRUMBULL (Rep. HI) wished to say a word, lest the impression go out that those who favorsd the reference of this bill were opposed to the ohjeot contemplated by it. The Senator from M an kuew that Le (Chandler) was not a more zealous advocate of the Confiscation bin than he (Trumbull) was when it was before the Seunte in 1562, He had been in favor of au effective Confiscation bill, The bill which did pass was amas. culated and inefficient, even if it had been executed and it had been very inefliciently executed. He would against restor. ing 'rty to Rebels, hut he wished the bil er considera tion to be referred to the Judiciary Committee The bill was then referred according to motion. ‘Mr. Trambull's OUR FOREIGN RELATIONS Mr. SUMNER (Rep, Mass.) offered the toliowing, which was lopted o hiered that so much of the President's Message as concerns our Foreign relations, be refered to the Committee ou Foreign Relstions, THE RELATION OF THE SOUTHERN STATES.

I have said 1 have no purpose now to disenss them, but I hold in my Land a letter whieh 1 received yesterday from a friend of our cause in Texas which is so im- portant in its statements and so direct in its bearing in the question raised by these resolutions that, with the indulgence of the Senate, 1 will read briefly from it. Mr. McDOUGALL (Dem., Cal.) Allow me to ask the Senator from Massachusetts, will the signature be read? will the name of the writer be read 3 Mr. SUMN ER—I shall not read the signature. Mr. MeDOUGALL—AD, I thought not. Mr. SUMNER~I shall not read the signature, because 1 could not read it without exposing the writer to violence, perse- ention or death. Mr. DAVIS (Dem., Ky.) rose to a point of order. He asked whether it was in order for Mr. Somuer to read a letter! Whether it was in order for him to introduce the reading of a letter into his speech The CHAIR said Mr. Sumner had unquestionably a right to make any letter a part of his speech, Mr, SUMNER then read the letter, withholding the signa. ture. He said it was written at Texas, November 19, 15606, and came to him yesterday, It states that the really loyal men of Texas concur in thinking that the first move of the Kepublican party at the approaclung session of Congress should be the passage of an net abolishing the slave State Governments that have heen set up in the South without authority of law, declaring zl) their acts, except 80 far as on revision, they may be con- tivmed by competent authority to have been nul and void from the beginning. The letter then goes on to detail what the writer states to be the condition of atlnirs in Texas, the perse- cution of Union men, Mr. Sumner, at the conclusion of his reworks, woved-that his resolution be printed. Mr. McDOUGALL did not believe the Senntor from Massa. clinsctts was as well acquainted with the condition of afluirs in Texans as he (McDougall) was, He rose to protest against the habit of the Senator trom Mussachusetts of introducing letters about the condition of the South, end refusing to give the pumes of the writers, as he always did, Lhe resolutions were ordered to be printed.

Ou motion of Mr. WADE (Rep., O.), the bill for the admis. gion of Nebraska wasgeferred to the Committee on Territories, TERM OF BLRVICE OF THE PRESIDENT. Mr. WADE moved to take up the joint resolution p ing to amend the Constitution by making President ineligible for redlection, Mr. WADE-I believe this the most favorable opportunity to make this nmexhment that there has been sioee the formation of the Constitution of the the United States. It has been the opluion of some of the wisest statesmen and those deemed the wisest at almost every period*of this Government, that it was a defect in that instrament that it failed to Lunit aflice to ono toim, I kaye no doubt that the reason that soperindoces of affairs on this subject was that Gen, Ch Hh Wis Chief Magistrate, and in bin such conde that secined to throw the statesmen of that day off their ordinary caution which they had exercised in almost every other por tion of the Constitution, Nobody can fal to see that in the vast and growing power of Presidential office there are tem tions all the time weighing on the mind of the President like gravity to wield the vast and concentrated powers of this Gov. ernment in such a way as he believes will induce his reélection, il 1 believe every one whe has watched with vigilance the administration of our country during recent years, I say all the Admaiistrations=1 do not wish to point out individually any one of them-—1 say, any one who has watched them will be convinced that it {s pot safe to put into the hands of any man such temptations as these, Such temptations arise from the fact that be can lise these powers to further his own ambition. There has rarely been a time, however, whe such a proposition could have been moved without seeming invidious, and 1 be- Lieve that this idea has been growing antil everybody seems 10 understand that it needs correction. 1 hope, Sir, without going into the srgmuent barely to suggest the the weasiuie—I hope that the resolution will go to the Committee and be reported buck at an eagly day. 1 have been for several years of the opinion that it hugh to pass—that this defect should be remedied, President Washington, even, thought so; President Jackson, and all your §tluent statesmen from that tie to this, have seen this defeet und wished it might be cor rected. They have not, however, found an opportamty when it was probable they could get the necessary vote to effect it. Such is the condition of parties, or such has been their condition in this Government, that it was almost a hopeless task to en gridt this amendment upon the Constitution. There is now an oppertunity, aud 1 believe every man is sensible that the corree- tion ought jo ly prompt applied I hope, thergfore, that the Judiciary Committee will take time to consider this resolation, If it is not correct, and wants smendwent, I hope they will apply the amendment, and at an early period return it to the Senate and let ns pass upon it, The resolution was then referred. It provides for an amend. ment to the Constitution that the President shall be elected for four vears, and shall not be ehgible for redlection.

Mr L. Fraukenstein has work, and has nearly bronght it to a gnecessful ending, for of com- undertaken a George which his memory is very sure to receive the gratia Ing ‘generations of Americans; a il, lest he should think this toward for Lis arduous labors rather uusubstautiol, we make baste to add our cordial hope that he will reccive a golden guerdon, in his own proper pegen, from ihe present race of his countrymen. This guerdon is already assured to him, if our le can only be brought to reflect on the value of cotempore peop: I History labors under in regard to many important events, from having to form her judgment upon them without sufficient data had existed among the Greeks, and that some proficient in the art had traveled over the country, immediately after the retreat of the Persians under Xerxes, and bad taken securute views of every place nade memorable by victory or defeat, go that every detail of the event could be followed by the reader as if Lhe were on the spot and saw hill and valley, plain and pass with Lis bodily eye: suppose that this had been done, and that the pie- tures had come down to us, is there any one so dnlil and cold of heart who would not fecl a personal indebtedness to the painter Not less than Marathon to the Greek, is Gettysburg to us, and the Persian invasion is as play compared with the tremendous issues of our war with the South. We are glad to know that the American of the future, whether he writes the history of this war or reads it, will not suffer for lack of pictured record of per- sons and places, any more than for want of written memoranda. Never was a great war so closely followed by pen and pencil, and the result is, that there is scarce au incident, of greater or less importance, which cannot be found minutely described in some printed book, orin the letter of some newspaper corre spoudent, or whose locality is not set down in literal truthful: ness in one of those photographs which have connected the name of Brady indissolubly with the history of the war. Not less honorably and not less indissolubly associated with the events of that terrible four years, wid be the name of Mr. Frankenstein. He has undertaken a labor which would have daunted many; very few could have been found even to propose #t to themselves, He resolved to visit every famous battle-field of the recent war, and make a sketch of the locality on the spot. This he has accomplished, and the pictures are to be published m ehromo-lithography, we believe, by Richardson Co. of this city Mr. Frankenstein has been kind enongh to show us the more fmportant of these pictures, and to explain them to us, poiut by point. and we have been as wmnch surprised by the minuteness of his information, the exactness of bis memory, and the clear- ness with which he comprehends the movements of the separate battles, as by the simple trathfulness of the pictures themselves: the delionay of detail, and the awount of important fact which they are made to contain The paintings that illustrate the battle of Gettyshurg were the most interesting to us of the whole series, but this only for the reason that the struggle itself was of such vast importance. For, the others become interesting in turn as the story brings us to them, and the range that is covered by the whole series is #0 wide that hardly a memorable point is left undescribed. The pictures themselves are excellent, and though nothing has been sacrificed to pictorial effect, yet in the majority of cascs they are pleasant to look at, merely as studies of American scenery. The artist's aim was single, hogever; Le had no object but to put down every poiut in the scem@ry that co cerned the partion: lar battle, and to make picture after picture until the whole action was described from beginning to end, The skirmishing, manenvering, watching and waiting, it is all there, and put down so alearly that we should think military men would wel- come the work with heartiést commendation. It must give them intense satisfaction to see such a faithful and complete record of the history of events with which they have been so intimatelr concerned. Again, we thank Mr. Frankenstein, and venture 10 assure Lim, beforehand, of suceess in winning public thanks. Such work should not be overlooked, and will not be, Everybody will welcome it. Every American interested in the war, and which of us is not, will covet tie whole series, and se- cure et least the pictures of certain battles, while the name of the artist will be counted among the most worthy of “hnse who have contributed to socure a truthful record of the greatest war in history. INDIAN AFFAIKS. Re ANNUAL REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONER. The Office of Indian Affairs is connected with the De ment of the Interior, and the task of the Commissioner wili not be arded an easy ono, if it is taken into considera. CIVIL COURTS. a UNITED STATES CIRCUIT COURT.—Dec. 5—DBefore Judge SMALLEY, LIABILITY OF COMMON CAKRIERS POR TRANSHIPPED GOODS=ACT3 OF PUBLIC ENEMIES, Thos, W. Kenuard, &ei, agt. Bon. Halladay. This was en aciion to reeover from defendant the value of a package of money which plaintiff alleges was in- trusted to defendant as a common carrier, 0 be delivered by defendant in Central City, Colorado. Plaintifl alleges that ondbe 7th of Janvery, 1865, at Atchison, Kansas, he delivered to defendant the package in question eon- taining United States Treasury notes, of the agg value o $10,000, to be delivered in Central City, Colorado; that they vere not so delivered; that a demand for the package Wad made and acknowledged, but the delivery of it refused. 1t sees that the package yas really sent by the United States Express Company from this city; that an application was made by the consiguor to the office of Ben Halladay in this city, but that he was referred to the office of the United States Express Company, and informed that the latter company was the proper live to send the parcel by, as Halladay's Gveriand Stage Com- pany did not receive parcels in this city, bat that they were sent to Atchison by the United States Express Compaxy, and then transhipped to the Overland Stage Company. The parcel was then sent by the United States Express Company. the pon-delivery of the parcel at its destination, search was made for it, and it was traced to the exsion of defendant. Testimony was taken establishing the fact of the transfer of the money from tie United States Express Company to the Overland Stage Combi} ite loss, and the subsequent refusal of the defendant to reimburse plaintiff, The defense asked the dismissal of the gomplaint, contending that defendant had nothing to do with the United States Ex- press Company, with whom this mouey had been deposited, and that defendant never received the money, ns being ntrusted to Lim by plaintiff; that defendant was not a carrier of valuable parcels {rom this city to Colorado; that the contract for the regal safe delivery of the parcel was made with the United States Express Company; that whea in- had been made at defendant's office quiry it in New-York in relation to sending the parcel, plaintiff was told that the United States Express Company were the puities who could make such a contract as plaintift’ desired to enter into, and that they (defendants) were not the proper parties; that the mere fact of the money being traced to the hands of Halladay did pot make Halladay liable, as he was not the proprietor of a connecting carrying route or line; and even if the latter was the case, the English and all other decisions in similar cases were in favor of tho non-liability of parties situated as defend. ant was, and all these precedents Ww ould show that in similar cases where a contract is made with one company to deliver a yarcel or package to a certain place, that company is responsi le to the consignor, and not a connecting line or company. Judge Smalley said this point was important and had often been discussed, but he believed Lad never been decided in the 1. 8. Supreme Court. He believed that the decisions in the English Fourts were based on the nature of the contract made between the parties, and he thought that the contracts in those cases quoted by the defense varied from those usnally made in this country. He thought it was best not to Limit tho responsi bility of the company receiving articles to be’ transported, when the articles had to go by connecting or other lines to arrive at their destination, unless a special contraet was made to that ublic interests and it effect. He thought it was best for the was also reasonable to suppose that, when an article was sent to any point, involving the necessity of its being transportad by more than one line or mode of convey. ance, each company or line, so transporting it, should be held responsible for it while in their custody, and the burden of proof should be with each such line or company, showing that they lad either transferred the article to the next line, in con- nection, or had delivered it to the consignee. There is no such specific contract shown in this case, and the usages and neces. sities of trade and the public interests require that cases of the nature of this one at the bar should not be dismissed for the reasons advanced by the defense. It was then contended by the defense that they were nol liable, for the reason that this movey was taken from their cus tody, by fore, by a public enemy "—Indians at war with the United States. The defendant was permitted to endeavor to establish this defense by proof, and witnesses were examined in relation to this pola it being left tothe jury to determine, from the evidence, whether the defendant had used doe eare and pre- esufion, and exercised due vigilance in preparing for such a contingency und had protected the property in their custody to the best of “their ability, when the attack was made. At the conclusion of this testimony, Mr. H. M. Ruggles summed up for defendant. Mr. Larogue will sum up for the plaintiff, and the jury will be charged this morning. ADMISSION TO PRACTICE. On motion of J. A. Foley, Harry Allen wus admitted to prac tice in the United States Courts. UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT-Dee. 5.—Before Judge BETTS, BOYS IN THE ARMY—LAW OF ENLISTMENTS IN RELA- TION TO MINORS. In re tha application for the discharge of Michael J. Conley from the Army. This was an argument in relation to the right of the United States Government to retain in the army a minor who had enlisted without the consent of his parents, and it arose from an application for a writ of habeas corpus to produce the body of Private Michael J. Conley, United States Army, upon the petition of his mother, Catharine Conley, praying for bis discharge on the ground of his minority, The writ was served on Brevet Major-Gen. Daniel Butterfield, Superintendent Gen. eral Recruiting Service. H. P. Herdman, esq., for Petitioner: tion that the about 300,000 Indians whose management he has to direct are scattered over a continent, and divided into more than 200 tribes, in charge of 14 superintendents and some 70 agents, whose frequent reports and quarterly accounts are to be examined and adjusted; that no general rules can be adopted for the guidance of those officers, for the reason that the people under their chiarge are so different in habits, enstoms, manners, and organization, varying from the civilized und educated Cher- okee and Choctaw to the miserable lizard-eaters of Arizona; end that this office is called upon to protect the ludian, whether ander treaty stipulations or roaming at will over his Wild hunt. ing-grounds, from abuse by unscrupulous whites, while at the sume time it must concede every resonable privilege to the spirit of enterprise and adventure which is pouring its hardy lation into the Western country,” ‘Che first and chief place among the events of the year re. ferred to in the report (eltogether the second of the Office of Indian Affairs) is occupied by the Indian treaties which were ratified in 1866, and went into effect. Among the most important of those treatics were those con. oluded with the Choctaws and Chickasaws, which, when its various provisions are brought into full operation. will establish the confederated tribes upon a basis of enduring prosperity. It contains provisions for the abolition of Slavery and the estab lishment of a Territorial Government. with the Superintendent as Governor, the Territory being named Oklahoma,” and a elause is added, looking to the establishment of an Upper House to consist of one member for vach honsc. Similar are the trea ties concluded with the Crecks and Cherokees. Both these tribes were slaveholders, and during tke war divided as regards restoration of peace and harmony betweew the opposing “The tract of 800.000 acres in Kansas, known as the neutral lands, is ceded to the Governmen: in trust, to be sarveyed and sold for the benefit of the Indias, the proceeds to be invested for them in the proportion of 3 per cent for education, 15 per cent for an orphan fund. and per cent for the national fund.

Asa Bird Garduer, 9th United States Infantry, for United States. The prisoner wae brought up from Fort Columbus, and produced in court with the return of Gen. Butterfield. The Government proved the enlistment of Conley, through Brevet Brig. Gen. J. M. Robertson, Second Artillery, and the original enlistment paper, in which it appeared that Conley mude outh to being over I8 years of age, and further declared himself to be 19 years and 11 mouths ol. The Attorney for petitioner offered to prove by Couley's parents that bre was only 16 years old. Lieut. Gardner chjected First: That, as the Constitution confers upon Congress the power to raise and support srmies snd wake all laws necessary thereto, it wns quite clear that Cougress may declare what sball constitute velid contract of enlistmen'. Second: That Congress have a constitutions! riekt to enlist minors foto the army without the consent of their parents. Third: That public policy required that a wicor shall be at liberty to euler into contract to serve tue State, wheoever such contract is not positively forbidden, Fourth: I nat since the passage of the act of Februery 13, 1862, a minor, between the spes of 18 and 21 years, may be enlisted without the coosent of Lis parents, and that the oath of enlistment taken by him as to bis age, was coaclusive in evidence and binding upon the urts, The Court held that the oath of enlistment taken by the re eruit as to Lis age, under this act, was conclusive and binding, and that the writ must be discharged and the soldier rman to the custody. of hic officers. TH jsion in this case wos looked to with great interest, as establishing a precedent in similar cases us to the Law of Enlistments." i UNITED STATES COMMISSIONER'S OFFICE. Before Commissioner BETTa. ILLEGAL DELIVERY OF PORTAGE STAMPS, The United States agt. Samuel Crossing The accused was charged with stealing unfinished Post-Office stamps and gelling or delivering them to a third party. The following testimony explains the case: James Gaylor—Am Special Agent of the Post-Office Depart. ment in New-York; [uiue postage stamps shown witness] yes tetday at noon these postage Ang were brought to me by the receipt of a large amoant of depreciated Cherokee scrip in yment for these lands; fhe experience of the department as to roocipt of scrip representing Indian indebtedness in pay- ment for lands. as in the case of the Sucs and Foxes, Kaws and other tribes, being wfavorable, But a question has arigen whether the actual Inguage of the treaty does not absolutfly precinde the sale of be lands upon any terms of credit what. ever. All sums bdonging to hcirs o deceeased soldiers re- maining unelaimedafter two years are devoted to an asylum for o of soldies. Provisions are also made for the payment of $10,000 for ceyain supplies furnished to Creeks, and for dam- to misionary establisbments during the war.” Severad impotant features yet remain unacted upon, and others have na yet been submitted to the Senate. Believing that peace ca best be maintained with our Indian tribes, after the whites gin to encroach upon their aneient Lhunting- grounds, br treaty arrangements, iberal and just in their pro- visions, ad faithfully carried into execution by the Govern. ment anit agents. the Commissioner urges the continuance of the phicy which has met with such gratifying success during the preent and last year. No4rious hostilities have occurred during the year between the ndians and whites, although numerous cases of depreda- tine by members of tribes not herctofore treated with, or cas- wo by them upon frontier settlements or emigrant trains, British pos- ve occurred as usual. In all the regions from th nu of the re- Nsions to the Gulf of California, with the excep ada line, the center portion of Arizona where the Apaches are always in hostility with both whites and other Indians, and the southern part of Utah, where a small band has been trouble- some, scarcely an outbreak of amy kind has taken place. Be tween the Bocky Mountains and the Mississippi peace has been the rule. Some tribes have remained, and committed depredations upon white settiers: but, on the whole, these cases have been ex- jonal. The occasion for these troubles is too often the un- faithfulvess of the Government agents, glaring cases of which The Commissioner strongly urges the necessity of providing some effectoxl code of laws for the airest, conviction, and pun. f{shment of crimes committed by whites against Indians, or In- dlans against whites, or Indians against each other, upon reser. vations or i~ regions chiefly inbabited by Indians, as the inter course laws passed over 30 years ago are entirely Insuflicient now. Much remains also to be done with regard to trade licenses, with its varied ramifications, in order to protect the Indians from unserupulous traders. The fuud provided some years since, to be used when neces. for rescuing and providing for captives taken from their or from emigrant companies Indians, being ex- and there being just demands upon it which cannot be the Commissioner recommends that a new fund for this rposo be provided.

Gov. Wells and other leading Union men of Louis- jana have petitioned Congress to establish a Provis- ional Government in that State. A long and able speech was made in the House yes- terday by Mr. Williams in favor of the bill to limit the appointing power of the President. The amendment to the Constitution making the President ineligible for reélection was debatedand re- ferred to the Senate yesterday, Various important Standing Committees were ap- pointed in the Senate yesterday. Messrs. Cowan and Doolittle retire from chairmanships. Mr. Sumner introduced important resolutions in the Scnate yesterday condemning the policy of the Pres. ident, and asserting the jurisdiction of Congress over the Rebel States. Mr. Seward and the President, it is said, differ in their foreign policies, and the Secretary disclaimed to M. de Montholon any responsibility for the language of the Message in regard to the action of France, The Secratary of State gives the official results of the election in our columns to-day. The vote for Fenton was 366,315; for Hoffman, 352,526; majority, 13,789. The condition of the Rebel Counties in Missouri has been so long and notoriously bad that Gov. Fletcher has not surprised any one in declaring martial law. We hope he will earry out his promise to make Mis- gouri as safe for loyal men to live in as Iowa or Illi Nois. From Canada we have rumor that Gov, Lord Monck, who was appointed by Lord Russell, is likely to be re- moved by the Derby Ministry; and a report that United States Consul-General Averill has gone to Sweetshurg to attend the Fenian trials. The Senate of the Fenian Brotherhood will sit to-day in this city. ee ee gp The Senate debated the repeal of the pardoning power of the President yesterday, and the bill was re- ferred to the Judiciary Committee. Wo understand that the Radicals in the House are deeply disappointed that the Senate did not pass it promptly, but we see no reason for uneasiness, We do not think that the courage of the Senate is to be doubted merely be. cause it chooses to observe its usual forms of legisla tion. Colorado Jewett, always ingenious, memorializes Congress to declare. Hannibal Hamlin President of the United Statés. He argues that the second elec- tion of Mr. Lincoln was not constitutional, as eleven of the States did not appoint electors, and that Mr. Hamlin holds over, as Mr. Lincoln wonld have done, in the absence of a legal successor. We infer from this argument that Mr. Jewett withdraws his support from Andrew Johnson. Mr. Sherman yesterday offered a resolution that tho reporters of Mr, Craig's agency should be given seats with the reporters of the Associated Press. Sod by droggiciv. Agent wanted every. The Senator probably does not understand the matter, i or he wonld with more reason have introduced a reso- lution in regard to the publication of the President's Message by Mr. Craig, before it was delivered to Congress, and in violation of hig word. Wp Go not wish to assootate ony TADOTECIS TUL {hose of Craig, nor do we wish the Senate to put an indorsement upon dishonesty. ve have at length a full and trustworthy account of the occupation of Matamoros by United States troops. It was again done under the pretext to gave the American citizens from plundering, but it gave great offense to Gen. Escobedo, the representative of the Government of Juarez. Escobedo made an attack upon Matamoros, which, however, proved to be in- effectual. At the latest newspaper accounts the United States flag was still floating in the city. One of the smaller marvels of the recent demon- stration in honor of Congress was permission accorded to clerks of the State and Treasury Departments to join in the procession. Forty Treasury clerks turned out, it is observed, but only eleven had the rashness or the courage to accompany the procession back from the Capitol. The high Secretaries have manifested a shrewd liberality which we commend to headquarters. Our Washington correspondence intelligently suggests the spirit that will animate Congress in the present session. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS. As we have anticipated, the action of Messrs. Hals- tead and White in precipitately hurrying out of the Associated Press does not meet the approbation of the Western Press. The card of Mr. Seripps reveals the oxistence of a tyranny which we have all along assailed. He makesthe mistake of supposing that there is any disposition on the part of the Associated Press to injure the newspapers outside of New-York. This newspaper, as 8 member of the Executive Committee, could never consent to any such policy. It is just to our neighbors to say we have never heard such a policy asserted. The one question on which we unite is that, with oug consent, no one man shall be allowed to aggrandize the power of controlling the news of this country, and becoming to us the Reuter of Amer- ica. Eminent English journalists unite in this wish, and beg us to keep the American press free from a tryanny which isto-day the curse of journalism in En- glaud. Mr. Halstead and Mr, White received every kindness from us. There was no proposition they could have made in any way proper that we would not have accepted. But the one proposition we could not ae- cept was that we should recognize a dismissed and unfaithful servant as a rival in news-gathering, and those who sustained him could hope for no associa- tion with us. We desire no antagonism. We seck to impose no burdens. We wish to do to the outside press what we do to each other, and no more, JOHN H. SURRATT. Nearly eighteen months have passed since the death of the principal conspirators in the assassina- tion of Abraham Lincoln, and still the plot remains a mystery. A bright theater—Death leaping on the scene—a wounded man at bay in a Virginia barn, de- fring bis pursuers, and shot by the blunder of a sol- dier—a sick man’s bed, and the assassin with his knife at his throat—the secret consultations of murderers, coming and going under various names and disguises —these are the figures in that terrible picture, in which, like those of Rembrandt, vast shadows en- shroud a fierce and lurid light, The gallows, with four corpses, aud one of them a woman—the Dry Tortugas, where four convicts expiate in wretched golitudo their crimes—a quiet grave far away in 1lli- nois—these are its companion pictures, and yet there is one more terrible. It isthat of a man flying from the land where he was born; flying from the avenger Death, from the body of his victim, from the corpse of his mother on the scaffold, secking in vain to lose himself in the great world, and to blot his name from the memory of man. This is John Harrison Surratt, of whose equal guilt in the crime there is no doubt, and by whom, it is believed, much that is hidden may be revealed. The evidence taken before the Military Commission in Jane, 1865, proved John H. Surratt to be one of the principal conspirators. It was at the house of his mother that the meetings were held; up to the week of the assassination he bad been journeying between Richmond and Montreal; Booth was his constant companion; Mudd concealed him in the woods near his house; Payne consulted with Lim; Atzerodt con- fessed that Surratt induced him to join the conspiracy; one Nott, a Rebel when he heard of the murder, it was sworn, exclaimed: “My God! John Burratt kuew all about this, and do you suppose he is going to stay in Washington and let them catch him 1 His name was the first in the indictment. Had there been any doubt of his guilt his flight would Lave re- moved it, for though nove of the prineinals were more frequently seen up to the 3d of April, on the afternoon of the 14th he was seen for the last time, booted and spurred, ready for his escape. From that time the very existence of John Surratt was a mystery; it was believed he was dead; that he had revealed the names of Lis fellow-conspirators to the Government, and had been allowed to escape; that he was secretly im- prisoned. It was noted that no reward was offered for his arrest. Yet, as time passed on, John Surratt was forgotten, till the other day came the startling pews that he bad been arrested by the American Consul-General in Egypt. De Quincey, in illustration of the vast empire and power of the Romans, imagines a fugitive from the vengeance of the Emperor vainly seeking to escape his grasp. North, South, East or West, wherever the wretched man may fly, he treads within the circle of Rome, and ber hand is raised above him; though he fly to the uttermost parts of the earth, Ciwesar will be before him. In this age, Justice is as hard to escape. The great criminal hides in vain in foreign lands, changes his name or disguises his person, Surratt's person was not very easy to disguise. A tall man, with a prominent forehead and very large nose, with deeply sunken eyes aud long black hair. Thus he was described at the trial, a Of his wanderings, little is known. It is said that he was recognized on a Liverpool steamer shortly after the murder, Then came the rumor that he was serving as a private soldier in’ the Pope's Guards at Rome. We know now that he had been a soldier in the Papal Zouaves at Veroli, and served under the name of John Watson. The fact became known to Mr. Rufus King, our Minister at Rome, who tele- graphed to our Government, and was instructed to secure his arrest. Mr. King conferred with Cardinal Antonelli, who issued an order for his seizure. Sur- ratt was taken; he was imprisoned; and on removal from jail, guarded by five soldiers, broke from their hands, jumped, it is said, over a precipice more than 100 feet high, and escaped into the Italian territory. Mr. Marsh, our Minister at Florence, obtained telegraphic instructions from the Italian Government to have all the seaports of Italy watched to prevent his escape. THe was soon supposed to have embarked in a steamer for Malta, and a dispatch to that island arrived too late to detain him; another was sent to Alexandria, and when Surratt stepped upon the shores of Egypt, he was scized by the strong, far-reaching arm of America. United States detectives, it is said, have watched him since October. But long before this he must have been overtaken by a speedier, surer foe. Fear was ever at his back; from remorse he could hardly escape, for even if he could forget the crime he had committed, how could he ever cease to see the phantom of his mother on the gallows? Coward all the world believed him, since that day when he fled and left Ler to suffer; a coward, it was said, she held him, and in her last moments refused to hear his name, There is true dramatic interest iu this imperfect his- tory. The escape and pursuit of no other criminal in this century has so much to excite the imagination, No man, it is possible, not even Booth, worked harder to ec--=nligh the murder; and a deeper interest is given to his hare in the conspiracy by his frequent journeys to Richmond. Upon Surratt’s presumed con- nection with the Rebel Government, Andréw Johnsoit charged Jefferson Davis with complicity in the assas- gination. New revelations are expected from his trial; the nublic may be disappointed in that, yet if John Sur: tt could ba induced to confass, before the death w' his almo t certain to be his fate, there is no reas able dou! t but that he might tell the whole story of incoln's ssassination from the beginning to the enc. THE NEW-YORK CENTRAL RAILROAD. It is currently rumored that the New-York Central Railroad Company have in contemplation the election of the Hou, WiLLiam G. FArGo of Buffalo, us Presi dent. This isa hopeful indication, as well for the traveling and freight-carrying public as the stock holders of the Central. Mr. Fargo is a man of large exooutive or business capacity and experience, and, should he be elected, we have no doubt that he would manage the affairs of that great corporation upon in- telligent business principles. If he will only devote himself to the interests of the Central with the un- tiring energy and capacity he has heretofore displayed in another and hardly less extensive and important field, he will prove the best man for the position within the reach of the Company; and we do not be- lieve that under his management the concern would be run” in the interest of any political party or any financial clique. The Company has heretofore had the unenviable reputation of having spent large sums in aid of the Democratic party, to the detriment both of sound political morality and the pecuniary interests of its stockholders. The election of Mr. Fargo would cure all this, and the property would be made vastly more productive, while the public would be better served, THE COMMISSIONER OF AGRICULTURE. We have the usual monthly report from the Agricultural Bureau—a pamphlet nearly as valuable as an agricultural newspaper. We are told that Providence is giving us genial seasons, and that big things are the result; also, that the National seed store is doing a larger business than ever, Perhaps farmers and others had better stop saving garden seeds and send directly to Washington. But the Commissioner complains that he has not money enough. He has expended only about one hundred and sixty-two thousand dollars this year. The estimate of the crops of the year is tolerably definite, but it would be more complete had the fractions of bushels been given, for he deals in fractions. He takes a fine sight. Much of the statis. tical work is to solve questions like this: How much is seven-tenths of three-vighths of five-sixths of three- fourths of one-ninth The Commissioner has got a bright idea. He pro. poses to send to Egypt for cotton seed to increase the Southern crop. Perhaps he thinks that he will get some of the seed which the Egyptians procured in our country a few years ago. This was about the time that seed was sent to India and other parts of Asia, One may want to know what this was done for, It was because the staple in these hot climates is so short that it cannot be worked on any of our machinery, Congress being in session, this Department will be- come active. The costly and extensive green-houses are blooming with flowers. Every member who has his wife with him, or who has left her at home, will have an evening bouquet. These flowers are said to be beautiful. They certainly give much light, THE CLAIMS OF COLORADO TO BECOME A STATE. In the heat of the struggle to reconstruct the Southern States, and replace them in their proper relations as members of the Union, it must not be forgotten that the great Territories of the mineral regions lying beyond the Transmississippi plains, and occuping the eastern slope of the Rocky Moun tains, are knocking at the door of the Union, asking to be erected into States. mountains and valleys, rich in mineral wealth, have been settled by hardy and industrious men who must, in the future, exercise an important inflaence in the nation. They have proved themselves loyal and true, both when assailed by armed rebellion and by political corrup- tiom, and are therefore entitled to the undefined consideration of Congress, Of these territories, Colorado is the most central and populous. It lies between the 37th and the 41st parallels of latitude, possesses a climate correspond- ing to that of Southern Pennsylvania and Maryland, and contains an area of 111,700 sqmre miles, Its position being central, the great highways between the ocean boundaries of the coutinent must pass through its mountain gaps, and connect it most in- timately with the great commercial emporiums of both the East and the West, The first settlers and explorers of this territory devoted their whole atten. tion to mining, and it thus came to be generally believed that the country was worthless for agricultural pur. poses. The necessities of a growing settlement, how ever, soon forced the necessity of experiments on the value of the soil; these have resulted most satisfuc- torily, and the fact is now fully demonstrated that crops can be produced successfully in Colorado. In the report of the Surveyor-General, we have the esti- mute that there are not less than 4,000,000 acres of arable lands in the valleys and in the river bottoms that can be profitably cultivated in cereals and veges tables. The yield of grain has thus far averaged about 30 bushels to the acre. The cpltivation of fruit has not yet been attempted, but in all kinds of gar. den vegetables the yield is large and of fair quality. For purposes of grazing, the mountain slopes and pleins of Colorado, having a climate and pasturage not unlike those of West Virginia, are fully equal to any portion of our country. The great mineral resources of the territory, which first attracted the pioneer, are acknowledged to be practicably inexhaustible. Gold and silver were first discovered in 1369, and have since been found in all parts of the territory from the southern to the north- erp boundary. The crude working of the mines has fully demonstrated their wealth, and warrants the belief that, if worked skillfully, they would prove to be among the most profitable mineral deposits in the world, Placer mines have already yielded over £6,000,000; the quartz loads have gcarcely been fairly prospected. A few quartz mills were erected before the war, but the Rebellion and the Indian troubles which followed so seriously interfered with mining operations that but little has yet been accomplished. From this depression the mining interests arc now rapidly recovering, The shipments of precious metals have, therefore, been small during the past year, yet these have mostly increased, so that the shipments for September exceed three times those for June. Pre. vious to the middle of the Summer, only seven mills were worked, while in October eighteen were in successful operation. Immense sums of money Liese have been lost in reckless speculation and unskilled effort; but wherever reasonable care was taken in the employment of experienced miners, a judicious investment resulted profitably to both capitalists and operators, The silver mines have also attracted the attention of prospectors, and as far as worked prove to be rich and extensive. Next inim- portance to precious metals are the coal deposits, which crop out along the whole eastern slope of the wountaing from the southern border northward for a distance of 200 miles and are of a superior quality of bituminous, Iron, copper and lead also abound in connection with the precious metals, Salt is fonnd in both the North and Sonth Parks At the South Park Es Springs works are Ping erected with a gi FY thal will produce 10,000 pounds of salt per diem. hi. facturing interests have received but little attention. The niiperal and agricultural developments, however, will soon stimulate manufagture, and the water-power of Colorado will be broken to the wheel of the fac- tory, mill aud sbop. These elements of material wealth, and the population they have attracted and bound together, entitle the territory to early admis. sion into the family of States. THE OFFICE OF INDIAN AFFAIRS. The Commissioner of Indian Affairs in submitting his second annual report, remarks that the year 1566 will be memorable in the history of the Indian affairs for the large number of treaties concluded with them by the Government. Many of these treaties are con. cluded with tribes with whom hostilities had continued for two or three years, at great cost to the country. In the treaties made with the nations resident in the Indian country south of Kansas, the abolition of Slavery and proper care for the freedmen are expressly provided for. Many of the tribes agree to be moved to reservations in the Indian country, and cede the territory hitherto owned by them to the Government or to private companies, which, in return, engage to make provision for establishing schools, supporting missions and encouraging agriculture and civilization in general. A number of treaties are still awaiting ratification, or in the course of preparation. Although no serious hostilities have oceurred during the past year between the Indians and whites, nu- merous depredations have occurred as usual. It is nat- ural that the disposition among the settlers who occa- sionally suffer from the raids of the Indians, is very hostile, but it is at the same time gratifying to know that both the legislative and executive departments of the Government are intent upon protecting the Indi- ans from unjust and illegal treatthent, The history of the Indians is drawing to a close. The irrepressible advance of the white settlers over floods all their possessions, and more and more they become concentrated in the Indian territory, where most of them are placed under some kind of territorial government, and begin to devote themselves to agri- cultural pursuits, The report of the Commissioner makes a number of recommendations which will re- ceive in time the earnest attention of Congress, A FIFTY YEARS FESTIVITY. A French provincial journal of a recent date gives some very interesting details relative to a 50 years’ celebration on an estate in the locality. About the incidents themselves there is a great deal to challenge our admiration tor those simple forms of life and kindly reciprocity of feeling which are more characteristic of a country than of a city community. One Jules Fabre, the proprietor of a large paternal estate, completed at the date specified in the news- paper above referred to (Oct. 26), his 50th year oc- cupancy of the land. Forty-seven of these years he had been a married man, so that the carnival held on the occasion was almost of the character of a golden wedding. Nearly 300 persons to whom he gave em- ployment joined him in the joyful observance. Some of these had worked under his father, and, like M. Fabre himself, showed gray hairs and wrinkled cheeks; others, too, were there who had been at- tached to the domain for 40 or more years, 30, 20, 10; grandsires, sires, stalwart sons with their fair part- ners, down to mere youths. The entire programme is deseribed in the journal from which we quote, and the proceedings must have been of au exceodingly interesting character—includ- ing an attendance at church, an out-door banquet, singing and dancing, and the recitation of pieces in prose or verse, the end being a benediction by a priest, Tt appeared that the connection of M. Jules Fabre and his people had been one of much mutual regard and benefit; that be, blessed with the goods of fortune aud a philanthropic mind, had chosen rather to prove himself the friend of those around him than to indulge in the asperities of caste common to many Earopean employers. He had built a school on his estate; helped his people to become the owners of the houses they dwelt in, and had, beside, exerted himself in their behalf both in a moral and physical point of view. It iz needless to say what the feelings existing be. tween the two were after the experience of kindnes: like this, We have been induced to briefly allude to this golden celebration in view of the really golden pic- ture it presents of a just and kindly disposition of reciprocal persons and duties. Though there may be something about it suggestive of the old feudal times, that something is soon dispelled beneath the light of the pure civilization and true religion palpable in its every phase. The New-York Times calls the Reform movement in England John Bright's movement,” This is simply absurd. It would be quite as accurate to designate the Protestant Keformation Luther's movement; the English Rebellion,” which ended in the decapitation of Charles I., Cromwell's movement; the American Revolution, Washington's movement. All great pop- pular movements must, of necessity, have leaders. Bright is simply the principal leader in the present agitation for Parliamentary Reform, and that agitation is traceable to obvious causes, not the least of which is, we opine, the indirect influence upon the masses in England of Democratic institutions in the United States.

This excellent artist gave her avnual concert at Steinway Hall on Monday evening, before a very large audi- ence. The programme was a short but pleasant one, the artists being Mrs. Marie Abbott, Miss Matilda Toeat, Mr. Steins and Mr. Alfred H. Pease. Mrs. Abbott has voice of fine quality and of considerable wer, which she uses tastefully and expressively. She has n well educated, and is a thoroughiy trustworthy and pleas- ing singer. She was wretchedly secompanied on this and any one less assured and self-reliant would have become embarrassed under the infliction. But Mrs. Abbott did justice to herself, and was heartily encored and applauded Sirota, Miss Matilda Toedt is rapidiy gaining Jone asa v She has a pure sympathetic tone, and plays with much expres- sion and tenderness, and her execution is rapidly becoming clear, brilliant, and decisive. She was loudly encoured in her first selection, and replied toit by playing in a smooth and sweet manner a paraphrase of Gottsenalk’s Cradle Song." Mr. Alfred H. Pease played his arrangement of Crispino in a manner by no means satisfactory. It seemed to us that he has become so used to perform the same piece as a duett that he launched out on bis primo, forgetting that there was no second piano part, which was equal to giving your guests the trimmings and omitting the turkey. Mr. Pease was, how- ever, encored and responded by playing another of his well known compositions. Mr. Stein has a rich and powerful baritone voice, and sings carefully and expressively. POLITICAL.

PURSUIT BY U. 8. GOVERNMENT DETECTIVES SINCE OCTOBER LAST. A telegram from Washington to 7%.¢ Boston Post gives fio following particulars of the capture of Surratt: The continually paraded allegation of Mr. Boutwell, Khat the Governmental authorities have been supine in the imatter of apprehending John H. Surratt, calls out a semi- lofficial staternent from the Ministers of War and State. The truth of the matter is, that the arrest of Surratt, as yocently telegraphed, is due solely to the efforts and actnal sursuit of the detectives of the War Department. This Betective system of the War Department Lad reached great perfection prior to the close of the Rebellion, and it poems to have beeu a power with which Stauton was loth to part. At all events, nearly the whole foree, consisting of upward of 200 men, under pay in this immediate local- ty; have been retained in the service of the department during the past year, only being required to keep thoroughly posted upon the antecedents of any individual who made their advent into the capital without any appa- gent call. The same surveillance was also dirceted to Gov- rument clerks and army men of every degree particular at ention being given to the attackés of the Paymaster’s De- sartment. Meanwhile the real endeavor of the organiza- ion has been to secure the person of John H. Surratt, and ithrough the cobperation of the State Department hia Whiercabouts wos first made known to the Government garly in October last, when it was discovered almost be- ond doubt 11 .t Surratt was serving in the Papal Zouaves n Rome. With no more delay than transpired in getting pstruetions from Washington with enlarged and positive authority to cfiect the capture, the first apprehension of arratt occurred under the auspices of our own detectives bout three weeks ago. His subsequent escape into Italy, ith whom wo have but a wodilied extradition treaty, yade his recapture doubtful until he sealed his own doom y continuing his flight into Egypt, with which Govern- tent we Lave a full treaty of extradition. I am author- 2¢d to say that the Government has been cognizant of ev- ry tap of this chase after the last of the conspirators, nd that its own detectives of the War Department foree ave conducted it to the suceceseful end. Admiral Gold- with hes been telegraphed to to bring the captured and is captors to this country without delay. So falls Mr. osutwell’s indictment of the Government in the matter tf the capture of John H. Surratt. URRATT TO BE BROUGHT TO WASHINGTON FOR TRIAL.

Dgrrort, Dec. 5.—The following note has been ad- ldressed to the Western press: I Two years and half ago I detected and exposed at a meeting of the Western Associated Press, held at Cincinnati, a con- apiracy on the part of certain Chicago, Cincinnati, and St. Aouis rs to prostitute the machinery and influence of the Assochnt on to the promotion of their individual interests. The plan undoubtedly then was and still is to break up all existing telographie news arrangements, and compel the smaller journals 10 100k to the three leading Western citics for their news, in- stead of to New-York as at present, 1 am not sure that the conspiracy does not extend further, and wontemplate the dwarfing, and possibly erushing out altogether of the weaker papers of the West, in order that the public may be compelled to patronize the ball dozen journals that consti- Ante the Ring. This Ring I know to comprise The Cincinnati Gazette and Commercial, The Chicago Tribune, The St Louis Rapublican, and probably other papers in these cities. The Ohicago Times preserves an apparcut indifference, and The Kepublican is positively opposed to the mosopolists. The MV estern press can judge for itself whether the late proceedings ©f Messrs. White and Halstead are in furtherance of the alms sof this conspiracy The President of the Western Associated Press Las been en. deavoring to secure a meeting of the Association to riify or eject the action of Messrs. Halstead and White, which as it Jia is entirely unauthorized by the Association or even their directors; but by a provision of the by-laws the ealling of cial meetings must be done by a majority of the Doard or Directors, and the couspirators controling the Board; the neeessary corseut cannot be obtained; in the mean time they bope by threats and otherwise to get the entire Western Press Jommittee to their new wrangewents. It now remains for the smaller publishers to decide whether it is better for us. to submit to the tyranny of a distant, and Lence impartial master the New-York Association, Ives in the clutches of o Western ever lie in tampering and erush- ing us for their own widizement, Again, we have always found fanlt with the news of the New-York Association under Craig's management; is it likely that under a different name Ormig's news will be more satisfactory? Our interest, T think, lies in making a new arrangement with the New-York Associa or whether we shall plac monopoly, whose inteivs tion, by wh a mueh better uals of dispatches shall be segured than we have heretofore had, and this I have no doubt ds practicable. estern publishers should look this matter well in the face before committing themselves to the uew arrangement.

KISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES By GEORGE BANCROFT. Vol. 1X. pp. o06. Boston Little, Brown, Co. The conduct of Washington during the ful périod of the war of the Revolution is the splen- 8id theme which clothes the present volume of Mr. Bancroft’s great work with a peculiar attractiveness. We are so much in the habit of contemplating the ripe, consummate glories of the illustrious Father of his country, that we lose sight of the weary interval of peril and doubt in which his character failed of trustful appreciation, his motives were called in ques. tion, even his very superiority was made the occasion of malignant jealousies, his military skill subjected to flippant, unfriendly criticism, and subtle plots formed fn obscurity and silence to supplant him in command of the Continental forces. Mr. Bancroft Las done masterly justice to this dificult portion of his task. With judicial calmness and discrimination, he has weighed the merits of the opponents of Washington in an impartial balance, Resisting the temptation to the production of scenie effect, he Las pr sented a pie- tare of that gloomy epoch, which is made nore fmpressive by its freedom from over-coloring, and the Pre-Raphaelite fidelity and naturalness of its delinea- tions. ‘The luster of traditional reputations has not obscured his perception of individaal character; with unrelenting truthfulness, he strips the disguise trom deceitiul pretensions; ont of their own mouth he con- demns the guilty; but the rigor of his judgments is mever vitiated by the spicit of party, or the love of raenal triumph. The perusal of the volume invests career of Washington with fresh majesty. We gain a more lucid impression of the purity and eleva. tion of his nature, of the absolute disinterestedness of his purposes, of the quiet, unostentatious courage with which he confronted the perils of military lite, of the signal wisdom with which he met the treache- ry and malice of the foes in his own housebold, of the sagacity with which he seized every advantage of op- portunity, and the calm, hopeful endurance which never deserted him even in sersons of almost univer- sal despondency and misgiving. Within less than one month from the date of the Declaration of Independence the condition of the Revolutionary cause exhibited but faint signs of 0mise, eepening its shades. Lord Howe had recently en- tered upon the scone with overtures of peace. He was confident of his ability to act the part of a suc- sessful mediator: He thought that" he had only to ride about the country and talk with the principal in- habitants, in order to restore the authority of the king by concession and compromise. Before his ar- rival in New-York, he had boasted that within ten days after his landing peace would be made. most events th Wo Reed, who had held a prominent place in the connsels thought that the overtures of the separate army on the Delaware, of the patriots, British Commissiouer should not be rejected, and offered throvizh Robert Morris most cheerfully to take such a part on the occasion as his situation and abilities would admit.” General Greene had already warned John Adams of the hopelessness of the con- test; and now again expressed the opinion, “I still think yon are playing a desperate game.” Dickinson, of Pennsylvania, who bad drawn up the articles of confederation submitted to Cougress on the twelfth July, gave way to similar discouragement. When e militia regiment of which he was Colonel begen its march, he was not to be found. Ie followed it on horseback for a certain distance, but his nerves were 50 much shattered that after resting a day, he finished his journey to camp in a carriage, Though Jodging within kaif a mile of hostile troops, he never 200K part in hard fighting, and found an excuse to Jeave the army at the moment of greatest peril to kis country. The political organization presented formidable ob- stacles to the vigorous prosecution of the war. The attempt in Congress to form an effective confederation of the States had proved a failure. The arrangement of its details offered questions of difficult solution. Mutual jealousies prevailed between different portions of the country. Congress could discover no grounds of general agreement, and accordingly, it was neces- sary to fight the battles of independence under the $mperfect organization by which it had been declared. The Government had little power, and as a conse- The gloom that hung over the country was Joseph aware of bis designation to the chief command in case Here and there a fogitive who had concealed himself in a thicket or a swamp crept back to his old compan- The captives were forced to endure coarse in- sults, Crowded together in narrow rooins or neisome prison-ships, they wasted away for want of good alr and wholesome food. The sadness which prevailed in the camp found its only alleviation in the example of Washington. He was everywhere in ‘percon, and no confidences was felt by the soldiers but in his presence. The army suffered the most severs privations. The lines at some places were so low that the wen at work in the trenches stood up to their waists in water. There was no regular supply of provisions. Whole regiments hiad nothing to eat bat raw pork and bread. Bat the serene patience of Washington inspired them with conrage to endure every ‘hardship. His place was always in the midst of thew. More than any one else, he exposed himself to the fury of the storm. But his physical pains were the least of what he suf- fered. is mental anxiety was intense. The fate of the army, and apparently of the American cause, lay in bis hands. He alone must watch for bis generals aud his troops. For eight and forty hours, he gave not a moment to gleep, and for ne arly all that time was on horseback in the lines, The influence of Gen, Leo ss the evil genius of Washington is admirably portrayed by Mr. Bancroft, in Lis profound analysis of the character and motives of that treacherous, malignant chiefi He had acquired a brilliant prestige with the army on account of his conduct at the South, Although he had advised the surrender of the forts in Charleston harbor without firing a single cun, he had the eredit of facing Clinton in Virginia. and in North Carolina, and of drivipg him with sha.qe from South Carolina. His return to New-York was eagerly looked for by tho troops, One of the officers wrote: Ha is hourly expected as il Heaven with a legion of flaming swordsmen.” His arrival,” said Tilghwatn the most faithful mems- ber of Washington's stafl, will greatly relieve our worthy general, who has too much for any mortal upon his hands.” Pray hasten bis departure he is much wanted,” was the message of Jay to a friend in Philadelpbia. But Lee, with #ll his insatiate ambi- tion. had notalent of a commander. He dwelt alwags in details, could never take in comprehensive w hole, was without the gift of original conception, but was severely critical of the plans of others, He was proud of his birth as an Englishman, and looked down ions, from [upon his American 8ssociates 68 bad com- pany. He left his position in England through anger at heine neglected. Had a chance of favor been turown to hiw, no one would have snapped more swiftly at the bait. He esteemed the people into whose service he had entered as unworthy of a place among the nations, He had no sympathy with their declaration of independence, aud advised them to re- turn to their former state of relation.” Making his appearance in Philadelphia on the seventh of October, he had the address to obtain from Congress a grant of thirty thousand dollars as an indemnity against ap- prehended losses in England. At the same time, of a vacancy, he was urgent with Congress for a They =ent him, however, to the camp of Washington, while he geeretly ridiculed them as a stable of cattle that stumbled at every step.” In passing through the country on his way to New- York Lee found much in public sentiment that chimed in with his disposition to make peace with Great Brit- ain. The Convention of Maryland was ready to come to terms, Pennsylvania was divided on the question. The spirit of reaction lurked among the people of Philadelphia. Their lukewarm ollicers in the army threw up their commissions. A majority were eager for negotiation, and a considerable party insisted on absolute submission. In New-Jersey there was an the ccntest. With the alleged concurrence of the most active friends of the cause in New-Jersey and the other provinces he had passed through, Lee pro- posed that Congress should authorize the offer of a negotiation with Lord Howe on his own terms. Bat the proposal of the pretended patriot received no at tention, The position of Washington at this time was painful in the extreme, Inhis own words, he was Lereft of every peaceful moment, losing all comfort and happi- ness.” With no suspicion that any one could covet his office, he was sadly watching the effects of the delay in Congress to raise an army. Aware that he could be but of little service to the canse by retaining his command, he foresaw the inevitable ruin that wonld follow his retirement. Such is my situation,” gnence, the military operations were subject to pers petual embarrassisent. Not a single soldier had been enlisted directly by the United States. A standing army was deenicd a deadly foe to the liberties of the people. Hence the enlistinent of citizens was limited to short terms. The national defense was committed to the ebb and flow of themilitia of the several States. raid he privately, ‘thatif I were to wish the bitterest curse to an enemy this side of the grave, I should put him in my stead with my feelings.” He wrote to Congress that affairs were in a most unpromising way, that the army was on the eve of dissolution; vet his appeals were without effect. TLe supineness of that body was unparalleled in the history of legis- lation. Nothing could open their eyes to the perils In the urgency of danger, Washington made a requi- sition on Connecticut for foot soldiers. But no in- fantry could be dispatched, Governor Trumbull sent three regiments of light horse instead. Composed ohiefly of the rustic yeomanry, mounted on their farm-horses, armed with fowling pieces, and without aniform dress, the hi Bo Wy soldiers becatwe ob- jects of ridicule to officers from the south. The scorn Fan promptly returned by the Connecticut farmers who looked upon these dainty warriors as “‘butterflies and coxcombs.” There was no forage for their horses, there was no service for them as cavalry, and in less than‘ten days they were discharged in disgust. At the same time, the army was a prey to petty dissen- sions among the officers. The pride of equality pre- vailed. Every one insisted on his own opinion. Every one questioned the wisdom of his superiors. Gen. Gates, for instance, though holding a commana under Washington, veglected to make reports at head- arters. When mildly rebuked for his retreat from ‘rown Point, he resented the interference of Wash- ington as an unprecedented” procedure, and claimed an equal footing with the council of the Commander. ju-Chief. Washington bore these rivalries of his sub- ordinates with dignity and composure. Their insid- fous attacks never disturbed the serenity of his spirit. Bhiclded by his conscionsnessof reetitude, he regarded them less as personal offenses than as aids to the pub. i a La Goma Previolis to the disastrous battle of Long Island, urees and disciplive of the army were in such ad Jess carnest and courageous commander than Wash- ington into despair. The task before him was one of appaling difficulty. In accordance with the wishes Congress, and of the State authorities, he felt him. self bound to attempt the defense of New-York Island. Jn order to protect the city, he was Sympdlea to hold ingsbridge, Governor's island, Paulus-hook, and the hts of Brooklyn. All of these posts were divided by water, and some of them fifteen miles apart. For their defense, he had but a little more than ten thousand and five hundred men fit for duty. Many of them were often obliged to sleep without cover. Good physicians, medicines, and hospitals were want. ing. Di s were contracted from exposure to the rain and dew, and more than three thousand lay sick. They were Shilfed to seck shelter in the neighboring barns and sheds, and somotimes nestled if vigkets and at theside of board fences.

Among the major-generais around Washington, thers was not one on whom be could fully rely, The military judg- ment of Greene was still exude. The brigadiers were untrained, and some of them without aptitude for service. The general officers knew not enough of war, to rightly estimate danger, while the timid and time- pro their want of courage in action by their spirited votes in council. of Washing- ton rose with the occasion. His words were full of hope and lofty cheer. In the orders of the day he to the soldiers by every motive that could ate the breasts of freemen.

In spite of the warnings of Washington, they were still confident of a respite for the Winter, In the latter part of October, Washingion gave proof of bis military sagacity by withdrawing his army to the high ground above White Plains. But his strength was wasting away under the system of short enlistments, The militia would soon have aright to go home, and did not always wait for their discharge. Not a single recruiting officer was iu commission to procure a supply of fresh troops. Though overwhelmed with cares, Washington maintained a serene self-possession. Nothing could daunt his fortitude or impair his judg- ment. His arrangements for the safety of the army, in view of the anticipated attack by the British com- mander, were ample and well concerted. But he was not seconded by his generals, who acted as if they were his peers, Lee, in possession of a separate com. mand, refused to codperate with his superior. Greene framed his measures in direct opposition to the instrue- tions of Washington. The consequence was the fall of Fort Washington, which gave Lee fresh opportu- nity for the exercise of his accustomed intrigue and insubordination. He neglected his orders to move the army, spread false rnmors in Congress to the dispar agewent of Washington, and aspired to a grant of Supreme power, The treachery of this infamous adventurer was suddenly ent short by his falling into the hands of the British, Tha Slade av By the middle of Dachmber, the famous retreat of ninety wiles throngh the Jerseys had been success fully accomplished. Seldom has such march been made with so few facilities for its performance. The season was one of the most inclement in the ycar. The troops were often in sight, and within canon shot, of the enemy. No hopes of a speedy victory lent animation to their steps. The principal purpose of the retreat wes to gain time, till mid-winter and impassable roads should afford pioteetion, The actors in the scene looked back with dismay on the disasters they had passed through, and wondered by what source of inspiration they bad been sustained. The secret is explained by the influence of Washington, in whose rare noblences of character the cause of the peltiofs found its only hope. “The virtues of thelr eader touched the symugthies of officers and men; they bore each other up with perseverance, as if cou. scious that few and wasted as they were, they were F44 1g save their country.” They loved thelr general $A th a gscore, enthusiastio love, and had nothing against him but the little care be took of himself while in adtion. Sait Nor wera the people less alive to the signal merits of £.e commander-in-chief. He isthe test man on earth,” wrote Robert Morris from Philadelphia. From Beltimore, William Hooper, the Representa- tive from North Carolina, thus echoed back his words: Will posterity belicve the tale? When it shall be consistent with policy to give the history of that man {rom his first introduction into our service, how often America has been reseuncd from ruin by the mere strength of his genius, conduct, and courage, encoun. tering every obstacle that Want of money, incu, arms, ammunition, could throw in bis way, an impartial world will gay with you, tbat he is the greatest man on earth. Misfortunes are the element in which he shines; they are the ground-work on which his picture appears to the greatest advantage. He rises superior to them all; they serve as foils to his fortitude and as stimulants to bring into view those great qualifies which his modesty keeps concealed. 1 could fill the side in bis praise; but anything I can eay cannot equal his me ta.’ n h In Congress, however, which had become infected 18 of impatience at by selfish schemers, there were Si his superiority. They were unwilling to acknowledge that the misfortunes of the country were owlay to their neglect of bis advice. Even so vehement a patriot as John Adams could object to giving him wer to nominate generals, saints ‘In private life Py willing to respect and look up to him; in this house, I feel myself to be the superior of George Washington,” His sturdy namesake of Bostoo, Ramuel Adams, could ill conceal his chagrin ut the slow p of affairs, and wore than once expressed his feelings in words that savored of a petulance foreign to his nature: “I have always been so yory wrong-headed as not to be over-well Medsod wit what is called the Fabian wer in America.” When Washington beard of these reproaches, he answered: We havejsome amongst us, and I dare say generals, who wish to make themselves popular at the expense of others, or who think the causa is net to be advanced otherwise than by fighting; the pecu- liar circumstances under which it is to be dong, and the consequences which may follow, are objects too trivial for their attention; but as Ihave one great ob- ect in view, I shall steadily pursue the means which in my judgment leads to the accomplishment of it, not doubting but that the candid part ot mankind, if they are convinced of my integrity, will make proper allow- juclination to condemn the Americans for continuing i to be loaded with all the obloquy they can bestot, if 1 commit a willful error.” Such is the spirit in which Washington bore the unjust repronches which fell npon him. His conduct presents a beautifal union of meekness and dignity. 110 never forgot the obedience sud respect that were due to Congress as the representative of the people. His tranquil wisdom and cheerful fortitude proved too strong for public rumors; he tired out evil tongues and evil fortune; and, sure in his mind that poster- ity was his own,” he saved his country by boldneis, constancy, and the gain of time.” In the execution of this volume, Mr, Bancroft, we think, bas surpassed the previous profuctions which have justly given him the front rank among the Amer- ican Listorians whose names are cherished with a noble pride both by the people and by scholars, It is rich in the essential qualities which constitate a clas gical history. In thoroughness of research, in the minute and unwearied eomparisp of authorities, In combined acuteness and sobriety of deduction, in the broad panoramic view of eotemporary even's, in the profound analysis of political action aad motive, and in subtle philesophical generalization, it has scarc ely its parallel in any wok of recent licrature. Mr. Bancroft has no gift of elegant diffusences; his aim is to exhibit the truth in the most concies manner; be uses fow words to illustrate events of the greatest moment; and crowds the researches of wlnmes within the limits of a page. He bas not the passion for story- telling which was the primary impulse of history, but delights rather in the lucid arrangement of facts and the analytic exposition of principles He would find himself” perfectly at home in the composition of a philosophical treatise; less so, in the construction of a romance, or a drama. Indeed, thy episodes on the history of opinion which figure so largely in all his volumes, seem to have been wronght with the fondest skill of the artist; they are labered with cons snmmate eare; and at times, perhaps, have diverted bis attention from the graces of narrative. The em- bellishments in which he indulges are often specimens of elaborate rhetorical art, betraying an ardent poeti- eal imagination, and presenting an effective con trast to the prevailing historical severity of his style. The pregnent wealth of substance which is. imbedded in hie work rominds ono oftener of the sententions brevity of Tacitne, than of the flowing melody of Xenophon; and henee it will always be more congenial with the tustes of readers who are in pursuit of exact and solid instruction, than of those who dally with books for the sake of mathetie attractions. At the same time, it mwst bo admitted, that many of the descriptive portions of this volume are models of terseand animated expression, Nothing could surpass the interest which has been given hy Mr. Bancroft to his accounts of the battle of Long Island, aud the subsequent retreat of the army, the surrender of Fort Washington and the retreat through the Jerseys, the captare of Burgoyne, and the dismal Winter at Valley Forge; altbough in less capable hands the materials would have douldless been spread over a larger space, and been found in a more attractive form by readers who prefer the ample ilius- tration of details to compactness and energy of state ment. From the highly finished individual portrait. nres, which are evidently a favorite task with Mr. Bancroft, and in which be always shows peculiar mastership, we must make room for the brilliant sketch of CHARLES JAMYS FOX. The character of this unique man was not a chapter of con tradictions; each part of Lis nature wus in harmony with all the rest. With talents, good-nature, and truthfaluess, he had po restraining principles, sud looked down with contempt on those who had, Priding himself on ignorance of every sell-denying virtue, an adept iu debanch and vain of his excesses he feared pothing. Unlocky at the gaming table beyoud nll caleulation of chances, draining the cap of pleasure to the dregs, fond of loose women and beloved by them, the delight of profligates, the sport of usurers, inpoverishied by his vices, be braved scan. dal, and gloried in a lordly recklessness of his inability to pay his debts, as if superb ostentstion in misfortune raised Lim above sll his fellow-men. He had a strong will; but he never used it to bridle his passions, even though their indulgence wronged his own father, or corrupted his young admirers. Born to wealth and'rank and easy sccess to the service of the king, at heart an aristocrat, he could scoff at wonwchy and hold the language of a leveler and a demagogue. He loved poetry and elegant letters, the songs of Hower above all; but science was too dull for Lim, and even the style and lucidity and novelty of Adam Smith could not eharm the licentious, rollicking states man to the study of political economy. His nncarbed licen. tionsness seemed rather to exeite than to exhaust his lofty powers; his perceptions were yuick and instinctively true; and and in Lis wildest dissipation Le retained an unextinguishal io passion for sctivity of intellect. Living as though men and women were instruments of pleasure, he yet felt himself destined for great things, awd called forth to the service of mankind. To be talked about, he would stake all bo had and more on a wager; but the all-conquering instinet of his ambition drove him to the House of Commons. There his renjus was at howe; and that body cherished him with the indulgent pride which it always manifests to those whe keep up its high reputation with the world. A knotty brow, a dark brown complexion, thick, shaggy eyebrows, nud a compact frame marked a rugged andacity and a commanding energy, which made him rude and terrible as an adversary; bat with al this, he had a loveliness of temper which so endeared bim to his friends that the survivors among them never ceased the praise of the sweetness snd gentleness of his familiar inter. course. It was natural to bim to venerate greatness like Id mund Burke's and a wound in his affections easily moved him to tears, His life was dissolute; his speech war austere. His words were all pure English; he took no palus to hunt alte them the aptest came at his call, und seemed to belong to Lin Every part of his discourse lived and moved. He never gave up strength of statement for beauty of expression; and never stopped to fill up gaps with fine phrases. Ils healthy diction wus unaffectedly simple and nervous, always effective, some times majestic and resounding, rarely ornate, and then ouly when he impressed a saying of poet or philosopher to tip his argument with fire, He never dazzled with brilliant colors, but could startle by boldness in the contrast of light and shade, He forced his hearers to be attentive and docile; for be spoke only when he had something to say that peeded to be said, and compelled admiration because he made himself understood. What was entangled he could unfold quickly aud lueidly now speaking with copious fluency, and now discussing point by point at one time confluing debate within the narrowest mits, and again speaking as if inspired to plead the welfare of all mankhd. He bad a wonderful gift at finding aud bringing together what he wanted, though lying far off and apart. It was his wont to march straight forward to his end; but he knew how to turn aside fram au attack, to retreat with his eye ever on Lis enemy, and then, by an unexpected reversion, Wo strike him suddenly as with talons. When luvolved in dispute, he dashed at the central ides, which was of power to decide the question grasped it firmly and held it fast turned it over and over on every side; presented it in the most various aspects; came back to dwell upon it with fresh force; renewed blow after blow till it became annealed like steel. He hit the nail again and again, and always on the head, till be drove it home into the minds of his hearers; and when he was beaten by the majority, he still hore away the palm as on wrestler, His merits, us summed up by Mackintosh, were ‘reason, simplicity, and yehemence,™ Ta But the earnest student of historical canses and de- velopments will perhaps find the most valuable fea- tures in the volume, the chapters which are devoted to the progress of legislation, and the political rela- tions and agencies which prepared the complete es- tablishment of our national independence, The course of opinion in England, the position of the Cabi- nets of France and Spain, and the intellectual con- victtons of eminent thinkers on the Continent, are set forth in their influence on American affairs with remarkable insight and discrimination. In discussions of this nature, Mr, Bancroft may claim preéminence among most historical writers of highest note. Hie ac- quaintance with the details of European and Ameri- can diplomacy, and his life-long connection with the politics of the country, give him a singular advantage over merely speculative scholars, and attach a weight to bis conclusions that cannot be commanded by the resources of literary art.

RE AMERICAN VIOLATION OF NEUTRALITY. GEN. SEIGWICK'S OCCUPATION OF MATAMOROS—IIE SUSTAINS CANALES—ESCOBEDO'S ATTACK ON THE CITY. XY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE. WASHINGTON, Dec, 5.—The following dispatch has just been received at this Bureau from The Tribune Bureau at Brownsville: BROWNSVILLE, Nov, 30,—Aserican neutrality on the Mexican border Las again been sacrificed, but this time, imstead of on the side of Juarez and justice, as under gal- lant, but too impetuous Weitzel, it has been prostituted to serve Rebel and mutiveer, as Servanda Canales, the usurper of Mata oros, is to our Government as wuch an outlaw as Mejia, the Imperialist. The former lacks the personal claims that entitled the gentlemanly Commander and sober representative of Maximilinn to respect The mistake of Gen. Sedgwick, therefore, iu interfering in favor of Canales, is both a diplomatic aud woial Plunder. On Saturday, the 24th inst., Escobedop with about 2,700 men being expected to attack Matamoros, Canales expressed a desire to surrender the place to Col. Sedgwick, alleging, as his excuse, that he could not control «kis own command, which he said, unless restrained, woul resort to pillage. His request and reavons for this having been stated in writing, Gen. Sedg- wick responded by immediately erossing a detachment of the 4th Cavalry of the 19th United States Colored Infan- try, the former under Brevet Col. Melutyre and the latter under Col. Perkins. Col. Perkins, with his colored troops, took station at Santa Cruz, which is at the ferry and about two miles from the city. Mcintyre went into town and the ncxt Sunday morning published an order assuming command of the surrendered city by virtue of rank; forbidding any but United Stites sol- diers to carry arms; forbidding soldiers to pass or repass without authority; and requiring foreign citizens to regis- ter themselves at their several consulates, and to pass goods, if subject to pass, from headquarters of the Ameri can occupation. This order was countermanded and taken down by Col. Perkins, sustained by Gen. Sedgwick. Bre- wet Lieut.-Col. Randall, First United States Artillery, soon sfter succeeded Mclvtyre in command. Thus, while the city appeared nominally surrendered to the Americans, not only were Canales’ troops permitted to retain tbeir arms, but left free to occupy in full force the fortifications against which Escobedo was to move, Late Sunday evening a meeting between Escobedo and Canules was arranged by Brevet Brig.-Gen, Sedgwick, to the end of an awicgble settlement, whieh, of course, was 1aposs- ble, Escobedo, justly offended at the new attitude of af- fairs and the moderate support rendered by Ameri cang to the cause of mutiny, refusing to accept anything less than unconditional surrender for Canales, at the same time time demanaing the withdrawal of the United States troops except 50 men, to remain for the pro- tection of Americen interests, which demand was agreed to by Gen. Sedgwick, byt he failed to comply with it. Instead of 50, 300 Americans were retained in the city, for which Gen. Sedgwick’s precarious excuse is that it subsequently appeared the additional number of Ameri- cans were absoutely necessary as a defense against an uprising of the citizens so by such dl-timed intervention. To an American flag of truce sent cut on the morning of the attack to inquire what would be the attitude of the asszilauts toward the Awer- icans, Eccobelo returned a curt reply that, as the stipula- tions had been violated, Lis own course would be guided by circumstances, At 5 o'clock on Tuesday morning Es- cobedo attacked in full force, with about 2,700 infantry and artillery. Tbe attack was begun upon the left, the east or lower side of the ity, by Cortinas, who was re- pulsed; next at Fort Monterey, at the back of the city, ou the Monterey read. Gen. Lonneganega assaulted, but his bridge prepared for the trench provivg too short, in the delay ensuing the joint of attack was reénforeed and rescued. The final assault upon the usurper, on the upper or weet side of the city by the Cazzadorces and two squad- rous of cavaliy under Col. Flores, was also successfully sepelled by the ill-timed intermeddling of Americans, Canales being enabled to swing his whole force from side te side as needed, without fear of a distracted rear. The following, from The Ranchero of the 20th, is rep- resented to be Escobedo’s general order extraordinary: General Order for the Night of the 26th of Noveinber and the Morning of the 2ith—"The General in command orders that te morrow Matamoros be attacked by the forees under Lis com- mand. For this the following columns will form, to which outraged steamer Elizabeth Read left Brazos at 5 p. m., and the Blackbird at 6 p. m. on Saturday. At 11 0'elock on the 26thea pontoon bridge was thrown from Brownsville to Matainoros, on which a detachment of the United States forces, under Col. J. 6G. Perkins, crossed and took command of Matamoros, It was alleged that Canales and forces were to saek the city, and Sedgwick sent his troops to protect the American citizens. Gen, Sedgwick then escorted Canales out for an inter- view with Escobeda, No terms were agreed on. Sedg- wick took Gen. Canales back to the city at 5} o'clock next forenoon. Escobedo opened fire on the city. His forces then charged Fort Monterey, and were repulsed and pur- sued by Canales. Escobedo lost 450 killed and wounded and 300 prisoners. Canales lost 25 men killed. Late in the afternoon the Americans withdrew outside of the city M. Canales, a brother of the General, was killed. We are without information of the operations on Thursday, but we have private information that a tele yraln was sent to Brazos on Saturday at 3 p. m. that Fseobedo and Camales met as friends, and that Escobedo 18 now in command of the city, The special bearers of dispatches on the road arrived on the 30th ultimo at Brazos, and it is rumored that the Federal troops were subsequently withdrawn to the American side, On the morning atter the battle, Gen.

A Washington letter of La Vove Americano of Mata- moros, fays: ‘1 have seen the instructions of Minister Campbell, They contain the following points: First, That the United States does not recognize, neither will it recognize, any Other government in Mexico than that of the constitutional President Juarez, Second, That they do not propose, neither do they wish, to acquire any part of Mexican territory; that they do not recognize in any manner the elaims of France, and that they are willing to extend to Mexico any aid, with the object to quell local disorders, whenever required by the Constitutional Gov- ernment of Mexico, or ber authorities, without proposing to interfere mn any manner whatever in the domestic dif- ferences of the country. RUMORED DEFEAT OF THE LIBERALS MONTEREY IN DANGER. Advices received here from the City of Mexico say that Meiia left that eity October 2, with orders to march on Matamoros with all speed. Another report says the Liberal force under Queviro, Naranjo and others, were completely routed at the Hacienda de los Boeag, near San Luis Potosi. Quiroga left the main army with 1,000 cav- alrr, and marched upon Monterey, which had been left without defense, GEN. TAPIA'S DEATH—PROCLAMATION ISSUED BY GEN.

From Qur Special Correspondent. BrowysviLLE, Texas, Nov. 13, 1566. From the time of closing my last letter up to the 7th inst,, Gen, Tapia had been in almost daily correspondence with Canales, endeavoring to bring about a peaceful settle- ment of the difficulties which have so long been pending in and around Matamoros, but had not reached the desired goal when he was suddenly stricken down with sickness, which culminated in his death. On Thursday night (Sth inst.) Gen. Tapia was eeized with what soon proved to be the cholera. ‘The line surgeon attached to this command did all in his power to stay the disease, and, finding his patient rapidly sinking, sent to the city for medical assist- ance, Dr. Spohn, attached to the post of Fort Brown, at once responded to his call, but arrived at the General’s head- quarters only to find that his services could be of no avail, and at 10 o'clock on the night of Friday, Nov. 9, the sonl of Major-Gen. Santiago Tapia took its flight to the spirit land, and his manly form lay silent in death, Thus died one of Mexico's best Generals; a man devoted to her best interests, unselfish in all his acts, and intense. ly loyal to his Government, one who lost his life in en. deavoring to save the lives of his fellow-conntrymen, for he was averse to attacking Matamoros and shedding inno- cent blood. But being ordered to enter the city be was determined to exhaust all peaceful attempts before he be- gan the struggle with arms. On Saturday his body was wought to this place and laid in state. Gon. Sedgwick ordered the entire military, force under his command to parade in honor of the memory of the deceased, but be- fore the hour for the funeral to take place, the friends of the late General learned that if his body was interred here, it must remain one year before it could be removed, therefore it was taken back to his camp to be sent to Mon- torey, or buried there until it could be taken info Mata- moros; under these cirenmstances the orders for the mili- tary procession were countermanded, Canales, hearing of his death, sent word that if the body would be sent to Matamoros he would have it interred with all honors, This was, of course, indignantly refused. The death of Gen, Tapia is severely felt here as well as jn Mexico. He was universally beloved by all who kuew Hm. Canales, on Sunday, issued a proclamation, in which he stated that, Now that Gen. Tapia, the legally appointed Governor of Tamaulipas, had died, he should retain com- mand of the State until such time as President Juarez ap- pointed a successor.” Did ever one hear of such impu- dence We have had several sharp skirmishes of late, one of which lasted several hours and came near bringing on a general engagement. A foraging party went out from Matamoros, under Col, Rios, and fell into an ambuscade, Cortinas surprised them completely, and captured 60 stand there will be given suitable positions: The first column shall attack Fort Freeport, and will be commanded by Col.

Street, Pastor of the North Presbyterian Church in Ninth-ave,, delivered an interesting lecture last evening at No, 76 Varick-st. The “Western Branch” of the New-York Young Men's Christian Association has instituted a course of free lectures at its rooms, No. 7% Varick-st,, and this was the third of the series, Mr. Street chose for his subject Mental Dissipations.” He de- scribed the evils attendant npon the neglect of reading, and the reading of literature of a low class. He concluded by com- mending to his audience—which was principally composed of young men—the perusal of the standard histories, biography, the better class of novels, as Miss Muloch's and Sir Walter Heott’s, works on scientific themes, and above all, the careful study of the Bible. This lecture is one of a course to young wen which Mr. Street is delivering in his church, corner of Niuth-ave. and Thirty firsgest. li MepaL 10 GEN.

Brownlow, by whom the presentation wiil shortly be made, ‘The medal is of gold, three inches in diame- ter, and wedghs just one pound ‘Troy. Upon the face appears a profile of Gen, “Thomas, splendidly executed in bas-relief, and surrounded by the words: To Mujor-Gien, George H, Thomas from the State of Tennessee: Upon the reverse is a relief of the Capitol at Nashville, Above this is the well-known answer of Thomas in regard to his ability to hold Chickamauga: We will hold the town till we starve,” Underneath the Capitol are the words: By joint resolution, adopted Nov. 2, 1865." The entire workmanship of the medal is elegant and massive, and the testimonial is a worthy tribute to one of the most honored leaders of the Union armies, é AN Op Stracer.—The pepal institutions in and aromnd this city have been of late very much overerowded, and the Commissioners of Charities and Correction have often ap- lied to the magistrates to discharge those persons who may ave been imprisoned for petty offenses, after they have served out a portion of their term of sentence, This is absolutely necessary in order that room may be made for new comers, Yesterday the Commissioners applied for the discharge of one Mary Woodward, an elderly woman, whe has been incarcerated in our city prisons or on Blackwell's Island no less than ninety- seven times, and to-day Mary will be released, affording her an OPH ey probably to soon enter Nien her 98th time.
