Prom Mr. DAVID WILLS, President of the Soldiers' National Cemetery, at Gettys burg, we have received a lithograph of the monument to be erected to the memory of the citizen-soldiers who lost their lives for their country, in the memorable three days of July, 1868, when, commanded by Gene ral MEADE, they drove back all army of raiding rebels under ROBERT E. LEE. The design, by JAMES G. BATTERSON, Hart ford, Conn., had been accepted by the Board of Managers. This monument is to be executed in marble or bronze, but we would suggest that the latter be employed in its construction, and that the metal be mainly supplied by cannon cap tured from the rebels during the war. `there are several precedents for this—one, ‘‘ - 01 known, being the Napoleon column, in the Place Vendome, Paris, the material for which was supplied by the cannon cap tutd by French soldiers from the enemies of Fr:uu e ; just as, some years 'later, the tlehille ;' , tatue iu Hyde Park, London—a votive awing to the Duke of WELLING TON-, " from the Women of England " was made, from French cannon taken by the British troops, in the six-years' Penin ;Alar campaign and at Waterloo. The following has been sent to ,us' as " an Cirtistic description" of the monument : The superstructure is sixty feet high, and . cusists of u massive pedestal twenty-live feet square at the base, and is crowned with a colossal statue representing the GENIUS or Innarrr. Standing upoma three-quarterglobe, she raises' with her right hand the victor's . wreatli of laurel, While with her loft she gath ers up the folds of our national flag - under 'sidelx the victory has been won. Projecting from the angles of the pedestal breleatr SUpporting an equal num loel* of allegorical statues, representing reSpec ively WAIT lIISTOTZY, PaAcz, and rmixTv. WAR iS personified icy a statue of the Airier!, tau Soldier, who, resting from the conflict, re lates to History the story of the battle which Vas monument is interuted to commemorate. 41 !STORY, in listening attitude, records with Stylus and tablet, the achievements of the 'held, and the names of the honored dead. l'Emai is symbolized by a statue of the Ame rican mechanic, characterized by appropriate aceessories. P KN V i represented by it female figure, 'with 4i ,heaf of wheat and fruits of the earth, typityby; peace and abundance as the soldiers' crown triumph. The panels of the main die between the F.hatucs are to have inscribed upon them such inscriptions as may hereafter be determined. The main ale of the pedestal is octagonal in form, pehelea upon each face. The cornice and plinth above are also octagonal, and are heavily moulded. Upon this plinth rests an octagonal moulded base, bearing upon its :ace, in high relief, the national arms. The upper die and cap are circular in form, the die 'icing encircled by stars equal in num bia- with the States whoke. Atm contributed their lives as the price of the victory won at GPI tysburg. If we might make a suggestion, it would be that the Monument might advantarreous ly be elongated. At present, it looks some what short, fifty feet added to its height would increase its dignity. FOR AND ARAINST FS. For some weeks past there has been no little political excitement in the two small islands which constitute "the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland."

Of course, there will be an im mense quantity of public speaking—gentle men who are silent in "the House" fre quently becoming loquacious, if not elo quent, on the hustings—the usual amount of bribery and corruption, and an equal quantity of extravagance, out of the candidate's purse, in eating and drinking; it being a rule, at- ail these contested elections, to throw the public houses open to all—men, women, and chil dren-Lwho wear the candidate's colors. When the elections arc over, it will proba.: bly appear that one-fourth, if not actually one-third of the new House of Commons now enter Parliament for the first time: A legislature with so many new men in it is less:manageable by the official whipper Lin than one with every member of Whom he' is personally well-acquainted. In a little time, however, the members, now and old, gradually settle down into their places, the official State-wagon runs on smoothly in its accustomed groove, and the ancient "whip," who has handled ," the ribbons" with so much skill, for many years, may be ex pected to drive it on as before, avoiding the ruts, and going gently over the rough and rugged places: It is a matter of some concern , to us how the ensuing election will end. We have no faith in the rumors that, at any _ : rate, PAL*BusTtit4t - wffi quitoffice before the inFet ing of the new Parliament. He will die in harness—like PITT, FOX, and CANNure,if he is allowed the opportunity. But if, in the expected parliamentary changes, the Tory party should become so strong as to obtain a majority in the Commons, .PA4.- MERSTON will have to retire, Lord Dg.niti. will step into his Place as premier ; one of the most bitter and most eloquent enemies of the Republic of the , United States will become the virtual ruler of England. This is what we have to appre: hend, should PALMLESTON be forced to quit office. PALMERSTON, if not exactly a strong friend of our,Union; is at least neutral in his policy, but DERBY dechtres that lie prefers the South to the North— that our Republic is a allure ; and that the great founder of an Empire in North Ame rica is JEFFERSON DAVIS !

[Speeial Despatches to The PresB.3 WASHINGTON, July 3,1885 The Colored Men and the Fourth. Great arrangements are made to give the Celebration of the Fourth by the colored citi zens, on the ground immediately south of the President's mansion, with proper dignity and effect. Kr. HARLAN, the Secretary of the In terior, was very active in securing them thii privilege, though President Joittrsow needed no urging. 'By the way, General HOWARD is full of confidence in the success of hiS mission in the organization of his labor system. Ho is constantly receiving intelligence from his assistant commissioners, in reference to freed men's affairs in the late insurrectionary States. In most cases they represent that planters and freedmen have arrived at a more definite understanding in regard to their respective relations towards each other. The former master is disposed to adapt himself to the changed condition of affairs, and the former slave cheerfully assists in cultivating his em ployer's farm. The crops arc promising, and order is being rapidly restored. New Plan of Cancelling Postage and Revenue Stamps. The idea of selling the Government receipts in advance of the payment of postal and ex cise dues, in the form of stamps, was no doubt a happy one, as its realization has avoided the expense and delay of collection in the ordi nary way ; yet it has originated one Of the most difficult problems which ever taxed hu man ingenuity, that of the effectual cancella tion of these stamps, on their use in the pay ment of taxes. A complete history of official and unofficial efforts at its solution would swell into a volume. In the meantime the prodess of tampering with the stamps has continued, until it is doubtful whether the internal or ex ternal revenues Of modern governments have suffered most from the two classes of depreda tors—the fraudulent manipulatrss of stamps, or commercial smugglers. This difficult little problem, which has baffled the inventive inge nuity of the age, is, we understand, about to be solved—not by an invention, but by an idea as happy as that of the site of the stamp itself, by that of cancelling with the same ink with which the engraving is printed (which has been donated to the Government.) This new plan is, we are informed, before the Post-Office Department, and is likely to receive that at tention which its importance merits from the present able and progressive Postmaster Ge neral and his assistants. Appointments of Soldiers. The President is very decided in expressing his preference for soldiers for appointmentS to official vacancies; and this policy will, uo doubt, be steadily carried out by the members of his Cabinet. The large number of gifted men who have served during the whole war, and won unfailing laurels, having lately been mustered out, will,no doubt, be honorably and substantially remembered. Speculation Revived. A great revival in mineral lands is pre dicted. Returning soldiers tell extraordinary tales Of the deposits of precious metals in the mountains of Tennessee and Alabama. Cob redo, Nevada, Arizona, ➢Montana, and Wall, have their claqueurs, and companies, with great names and sounding capital [letters?] are being formed. There is also an evident preparation and expectation for a great re vival in the oil trade. The prospect is signifi cant of a very general renewal of the specula• tive manta of last winter. The colored National Monument Aso°. elation. The Colored National Monument Associa tion, which celebrates the National Anniver sary south of the Presidential Mansion, have extended an invitation to the President and the entire Cabinet, and also the Mayor of the city, to be present. Ample preparations have been made for an interesting occasion. The Declaration of Independenee will be read by JOHN F. COOK, the opening address by Major General HUNTER, and the poem by the vener able and Rev. Jonic PIERPONT. Desire a Repeal. A delegation has arrived here from Rich mond, bringing with them a numerously signed memorial to the President, praying for the reconsideration of the clause in the am. nesty proclamation excepting from its benefits all worth more than 132.0,000.

GP.TTYSEURG, July 3—Evening, I have just arrived here, after a pleasant jaunt through the fruitful Cumberland Valley, which is, with romantic Chester Valley, the garden and the ever-teeming granary of our State. The narrow limits of a despatch will not allow me to deacribe the beauties of Na ture, as they appeared in brooks and trees and verdure, and distant, misty mountains—ri valling in their azure ,the el oudleas sky against which they rear themselves so proudly in graceful curves and shadowy peaks. I find this quiet old town. nestled among trees and hills as cozily as if no battle, in which the fate of a nation depended, had shaken its walls with the thunder of cannon, or stained the daisy-clad fields around it With fast-flowing blood. It is crowded with strangers—dignitaries of State and of the army, members of the Legislature, soldiers, and citizens. The morrow is looked forward to by all around me with keen interest, as it is expected that not even the solemn cere mony of the dedication of the Cemetery, in November, 1853, at which our late President attended, will equal that of the corner-stone laying to-morrow in numbers and spirit. Governor Curtin and his stair, together with mans members of the Legislature, are here; and among the prominent representatives of the army arc General Mende, General Howard., (the orator of the day,) General Crawford, General Russell, Major General Doubleday, Major General Sykes, Quartermaster General Reynolds, General Todd, Adjutant General Thomas, Charles G. Ilalpin,Esq., (Miles O'Reil ly,) who will read the poem announced in the programme. I understand the President will not be here, his illness forcing him to re main in Washington. Ile will, however, send a representative, and a letter announcing the reason of his absence, and pertinent to the ceremonies of the day. GETTYB/317RG HARRISBURG, July 3.—Major General Meade and staff and Major General Crawford and staff waived here last night, and were received at the depot by a deputation of State officials.

The distinguished party left this city at ten o'clock, in carriages, intending to drive through the CumberlamlYalley to Gettysburg. Generals Meade and Crawford occupied a car riage with Governor Curtin. • Surgeon General Phillips, Quartermaster General Reynolds, Inspector General Todd, and Adjutant General Russell occupied a car riage. Colonel Gregg, Chief of Transportation, with Mfr. Ringwalt, of the Washington Chroni cle, and John W. Forney, Jr., of the Phila delphia Press, occupied a third carriage. WAsiminfox, July a—The only public Cole• bration to-morrow in Washington, will be by the colored people, comprising the National Monument Association, with Major General Minter as the orator. Salutes will be fired at sunrise, noon, and sunset, by order of the Go- vernment authorities, and at night there will be a display of fireworks. All the public de. partments will be closed to-morrow.

A (limier will be given under the direction of the senior proprietor of the hotel, Major W. W. listAyo, formerly chief confiniSsary of the Army of the Tennessee. General GuANT left here for Albany, and will ruu over to Saratoga, if possible. Ilnunisetma, July 3.—Extensive prepara tions are making by the people for a grand celebration of Independence day. Triumphal arches have been erected in different parts of the city, the military and firemen are pre= paling for an imposing procession, free din ners are to be given, orations delivered, and the festivities will close with the illumination of the public and private buildings and a dis play of brilliant fireworks. The Pennsylvania troops from tho camps in and around Washington are pouring into Crimp Curtin, where they are promptly paid and furnished with transportation to their different homes. All the troops which ar rived at Camp Curtin up to Saturday night will le paid off and on their way homeward before sundown to-day.

" 15Z134 Youß, July 3.—The steamer Liberty has arrived with Havana dates of the 28th Troops were constantly arriving from Santa Domingo, and by this time the island is coin: pletely evacuated,by the Spanish troops. The Spaniards blew up all the fortifications they had constructed before leaving. It was said that a treaty had been made protecting the Dominicians that had assisted the Spaniards; but numbers of such families arriving at 11.9,_ vana show how much faith is put in such a treaty. They will be considered as traitors by the Dominicians, and their treatment can be imagined, Adviees from Hayti represent the rebellion as gaining strength, and President, Geffrard bad sustained reverses. From Mexico it is reported that the bands of guerillas are increasing in all parts of the country, doing much damage, and augment. ing the general mistrust in the empire. There is also a want of harmony between the French and Austrian troops. A brigade of Mciia's troops are said to occupy Monterey. It was reported in Teta Cruz that forces. have been sent to Tampico, where an attack by Juarcz's troops, reinforced by American emigrants, is expected.

The interests and object of Great Britain had all along been to maintain peace; and now that the contest which had distracted the United States had been put an end to, the sole object they had in view was peace also. No more visitors were to be admitted on board of the Great Eastern before she sailed. 'The present condition of the cable was all that could be desired, and those most inte rested in it seemed to be perfectly confident of its complete success. GREAT BRITAIN. The English papers are unusually silent on American affairs. The whole twenty-three hundred miles of the Atlantic telegraph cable was ou board the Great Eastern, and as soon as the balance of the paying-ont machinery was put up, the te legraph fleet wouldtsail for Valentia, and it was hoped before their departure from yawn ti.a, that a United States Government steamer would join them.
