THE NATIONAL FINANCES.
The official report of the public debt on
the 31st of July, showing it to be $2,757,•
253,275.86, with a balance of $116,739,-
632.59 in the Treasury, is universally re
garded as a more favorable presentment
than was anticipated, in view of the im
mense sums expended during the last few
months in paying the soldiers anti the
heavy claims created during the gigantic
campaign which crushed the rebellion. It
is now tolerably clear that our whole debt,
after all outstanding accounts are adjusted,
will not exceed $3,000,000,000. A large
portion of this bears no interest, and it is
not likely that the annual charge for inte
rest will ever amount to more than $150,-
000,000. The interest payable now is
$64,521,833.50 in coin, and $74,740,630.78
in greenbacks, or less than $140,000,000.
Some writers suppose that ultimately the
debt will be consolidated into a long four
per cent. loan, bearing an interest 'of not
more than $120,000,000.
It will be seen by a telegraphic report,
prepared from official data, which we pub
lish this morning, that the receipts of the
Government for the quarter ending with
March, 1865, were—from customs, $20,-
519,000 ; internal revenue, $65,262,162 ;
other sources, $4,21.1.,700 ; or, in round
numbers; $90,000,000, which is at the rate
of 000,000,000 per annum. This sum is
sufficient to provide for the payment of the
interest on the public debt, supposing it to
be hereafter, $150,000,000 per annum, and to
leave a surplus of $210,000,000 applicable to
the current expenses of the Government.
This simple fact is a striking and convincing
proof of the ability of the American people
to bear with ease the heavy burden thrown
upon them by the war for the Union, and
to set at rest forever and nt once all doubts
of the solvency of the;
nat.on. Our finan
cial triumph is as complete as our
military success. We conducted the most
gigantic conflict of modern times without
begging from abroad the aid of men, money,
or munitions ; and, though we necessarily
resorted to loans from our own citizens to
defray our unprecedented expenses, we es
tablished during the continuance of the con
flict a novel and untried revenue system,
which Was sufficiently productive during
the last quarter of the existence of the Con_
federaey to defray all the expenditures that
will be required after order is thoroughly
restored, and (probably) to provide for the
payment of the national debt. Every Ame
rican should be devoutly thankful for this
grand proof' of the patriotism and wealth of
the nation. It adds new lustre to our glo
rious victories, and a most gratifying and
invaluable assurance that we have not
proudly outrode the storm of battle to be
Ivrecßed and ruined on a .bleak coast of
financial embarrassment.
This one great main truth should and
will sink deep into the hearts of the people ;
strengthening their unalterable faith in the
tinion ; renewing and increasing confidence
in the public securities and proving more
conclusively than ever that loyalty " is the
best policy," and that those who generously
resolved to risk their fortunes in their coun
try's service displayed, unconsciously and
disinterestedly, as much more of , worldly
wisdom, as of patriotism, than the selfish
speculators who traded upon the necessities
of the nation, and who derided and en
deavored to depreciate its credit. •
That this trgth may in no measure be
- weakened, much yet remains to be done.
The public expenditures have already been
greatly reduced ; but this reduction should
be confirmed until the lowest standar:l com
patible with the requirements of our changed
condition, and the stubbornness of the re
bellious States, is reached. All unneces
sary appropriations should be avoided, and
all unnecessary officials, in the military,
naval, and civil service, be dismissed as
soon as possible. The nation wishes to pay
every dollar it owes; but it does not wish to
be called upon to pay a cent of future ex
penditures for which it does not receive a
fair and essential equivalent. It battled for
the Union regardless of the cost, and deter
mined to hazard all for its preservation ; it
will battle now to preserve its credit untar
nished, and to keep down its expenditures
to the lowest point consistent with national
security, honor, and welfare.
Our internal revenue system needs revi
-61011, to guard against the flagrant frau&
which are frequently practised. Hastily
constructed, it has been much more pro
ductive than the most sanguine could have
anticipated. But many disreputable parties
have managed to evade its protisions, parti
cularly those applicable to excise duties,
and it is probably not an ciaggeration to'
estimate that under the existing laws the
Government is defrauded of more than
enough revenue to pay the interest on our
national debt. Experience, the investiga
tions now in progress, and careful attention .
to this vital subject by Congress and the
Treasury Department, will no doubt enable
our authorities to lighten some of the bur
dens which are at present most onerous and
prejudicial, and yet at the same time to great
ly increase the gross returns. It will be re
membered, too, that no revenues from the
South swelled the returns which we quoted at
the commencement of this article. That
section may be slow to recover its wonted
prosperity, but it must soon be in a position
to assist materially in defraying our public
expenses. The earnest support which the
project we have frequently advocated in
these columns, of levying export duties,
especially on cotton and tobacco, has re
ceived from the press and public men of
many sections of the country, clearly indi
cates that it will eventually be adopted.
And then, when Southern industry is re
organized and an approximation to its
former production is reached, we will be
in a position to exact from foreign nations
money enough to provide for the speedy
extinction of the national debt. We will
turn antighty tide of wealth, Wrung from
our foes abroad, into the national treasury,
by wisely and honorably availing ourselves
of the peculiar qualities of the soil and cli
mate which were welded to the Republic by
the valor and heroism of our brave soldiers.
We will, in the end, without injury or in
justice to future loyal and industrious culti
vators of Southern plantations, extract, year
after year, coin from cotton, until every
dollar the rebellion has cost us is repaid
to the nation by the unfriendly coun
tries which fomented, assisted, and pro,
tracted it.
Hopeful as our financial prospects ap
pear, however, everything depends upon
the continued prosperity of our industrial
interests. The transition from war to peace
necessarily caused many important changes.
But various manufacturing interests, espe_
eially those connected with iron, have
al
ready suffered a marked and grievions de
pression. It is absolutely essential that the
Nation should not be plucked and plun
dered, as of old, by foreign manufacturers,
and that our own people should,
as far as possible, have an oppor
tunity to do all our own work. We wel
come the citizens of all nations here, and
are willing and eager to purchase the varied
products of their industry, but on condi
tion that they in turn shall live among-us
and become purchasers and consumers of
OUT w
promactS. We cannot afford to con
tinue an impoverishing traffic, in which a
few raw materials are exchanged for a great
many expensive fabrics. We want the
labor that effects these changes to be per
formed here, so that all the profits may be
retained at home, and that all classes of our
citizens may have abundant opportunities
for the display of their talents and capa
cities, and the honest enlargement of their
incomes.
WEER SOICTMERN CLERGY
We yesterday published the letter of
Wsnsinn, the Episcopal Bishop of Alabama,
to his clergy and laity, adVising a new re
bellion, by asking them to refuse to pray for
the President of the. United States until the
military are removed, and the civil; which
means the old rebel governments, are re
stored. The same course.has been adopted
by W. M. GREEN, the Episcopal Bishop of
Mississippi, more offensively. In his letter,
printed in the Mississippi Clarion, dated
July 10, he says :
Being now convinced that the military au
thority at present over us has no disposition
to interfere with our services, and wishing to
conform; as near as may be, with the worship
of our brethren in the more Northern dioceses,
I now request that, so soon as the military rule
shall cease to be exercised Oyer us, and our
State Government shall be re-established in
the exercise of her constitutional rights, you
will use the prayer for the "President of the
United States, and all in civil authority, ,, as
prescribed in the Prayer Book. To use that
prayer at present would be equivalent to wish
ing the success and continuance of a domina
tioll - which, even in its mildest form, is repug
nant to the spirit of any people.
I will take occasion here to reply,. as well as
I earl, to a question which has been frequently
asked of me since the late reverse in our poli
tical affairs, : " Will the Southern Church
return to its former connection with our North
ern brethren, or will she retain her present re
oyganizationr No satisfactory answer can be
given to this question until the meeting of our
next General Council. nut, for my own part,
I hesitate not to say that my decided prefer
ence is to remain as we are, two separate and
independent organizations.
The Methodist Bishop of Georgia, G. F.
PIERCE, not to be outdone in disloyalty,
thus addresSes the preachers and members
of his Conferencel under date, Sunshine,
July 20 :
In various ways I have learned that some dis- -
cussion has arisen, and that some anxiety is
felt in relation to the future policy of our
Church. The question has come up—if the
Methodist Church North proposes reunion . ,
shall we accept its Opposed to this proposi
tion, Seine have suggested that we seek refuge
from strife in the bosom of the Episcopal
Church. Now, I beg to say that Me agitation
of these questions it premature and fraught
with evil. in the first place the Northern
Methodists have not proposed reunion, and I
predict will not, except upon terms so degrad
ing and repulsive as to preclude even their
entertainment—much less their acceptance.
I found this opinion upon their past history—
their antecedents before and during the war t
and their policy as declared, in a recent meet
inz,, by their Bishops.
Xs to the other alternative it is compassed
with embarrassments. Many difficulties are
involved. We have not been Invited, and it is
indelicate to presume upon a welcome. Withal
these are questions of etiquette and con
science—Of canons or ordination and forms—
of itinerary and di sciplinn, winch no man or
congregation can settle. 'They belong to con
ferenees and conventions.
These are the men who have been teach
ing religion to the Southern people. The
two first formally refuse, and advise their
followers not to pray tor the President of
the United States, unless the rebel civil
government is restored The Methodist
proposes to reject all terms of re-uuion
with his old Northern associates, be
cause the terms would be " degrading
and repulsive "—including, doubtless, the
Heaven-offending condition of oppoSition
to the ``divine institution" of slavery.
Not the most gentle introduction to a
peaceful restoration of the Union ! They
are, however, good reasons for maintaining
the provisional military governments in
the lately acceded States, and for keeping
out all representatives in Congress who do
not - come up to the full measure of obe
dience to the laws and the national au
thority. If the Southern clergy preach
and teach such criminal passions as these,
the laity will not be brought to their duty
until they have a new realizing sense of
the stern determination of the Govern
ment And if the laity can - wait, we pre
same,the Government will not be im
patient or hasty.
NAMES AND NAME-GIVING.
Of the Church of England, Queen VIC
TORIA is called " Head," because her
amiable ancestor, HENRY received
the title of " Defender Of the Faith " from
Pope LEO X., for having written a book
against LumnEu, in 1521, whose doctrines,
soon after and for the remainder of his
evil life, he endeavored to force upon the
consciences of his subjects. To the Church
of England belongs a regulated-by-law
Book of Common Prayer only used—none
other—in all her places of public worsldp.
This was first given in English, (not Latin)
in the nixie of King lIERRY ; was
Teeon
structed by order of EDWARD VI. ; was
cast aside by MARY I. ; was revived and
revised by order of ELizABETII ; and has
subsequently been revised, by authority, in
the reigns of JA2uns 1., Cumu.Es IL,
and VICTORIA ; the latest and most sensi
ble alteration being the omission, a few
years ago, of the four State-services—for
Gunpowder Treason, November 5; for King
CHARLES' Martyrdom, January 30 ; and for
the Restoration of cRA-RLES May 29 .
The Protestant Episcopal Church. in ArneAUL, still using the English Book of
Common'Prayer with a few changes, long
since. rejected the three State services in
question. They did not think, perhaps,
that CHARLES L was a " Blessed Martyr;"
that there was much cause for thanking
God for allowing monarchs to be restored,
in the person of CHARLES II; and that
Goy FA'wkEs had been burned so long in
effigy in the streets that it was full time
to get rid of him in the Churches.
The directions in the English Book of
Common Prayer as to Baptism of Infants,
are very spe.cific—namely, that each male
shall have two god-fathers and one god
mother, and each female child two god
mothers and one god-father. One might
think that Queen VICTORIA, as "Head of
the Church,"• would respect the regu
lations as set clown in the Prayer
Book for the orthodox who belong
to the Church of England. Not • she.
The other day, at the baptism of the
Prince of Wales' second son, Her Ma
jesty personally assisted in violating the
Rubric. What is worse, she allowed the
Archbishop of Canterbury, the Bishops of
London, Oxford, and Worcester, and the
Deans of Windsor and Westminster to do
so too. All of them, like other clergymen
of the Church of England, had pledged
themselves, at ordination, to observe these
Rubrics.
Instead of having the regulated number
of sponsors, the little Prince had seven,
viz.: the Queen of Denmark, the King of
Hanover, the Princess Louisa of Hesse,
the Duchess of Cambridge, the Duke of
Saxe Cobourg and Gotha, the Duke of
Cambridge, and the Prince of Leiningen.
Of these seven, only the two last were pre
sent. The others were, represented by
proxy—Queen VICTORIA standing up for
the Queen of Denmark, the infant's other
grandmother. It is not stated, in the
elaborate description of this ceremonial,
whether there was anything particular,
as to the water used in the baptism.
When the Prince of Wales was chris
tened, the King of Prussia was his god
father, and the water used was brought
from the river Jordan for that spe
cific purpose, and was not, as might have
been expected from the King's predilec
tions, a liquid supplied by the Widow Cm-
QUO'S. The newly-made Christian, accord
ing to the English custom, was let lightly
off with only four names— GEORGE
PREDERICK—ERNEBT—ALISERT. In Aus
tria, the usual average of royal names is
four; in Prussia, it is three; in Russia, it
is two; in Belgium, there are eighteen
names among three royal children. In
Brazil, Portugal, and Spain each royal
Christian's given names are so numerous
that it-must be quite an effort of memory to
remember them. The Emperor PEDRO of
Brazil has fifteen names, his 'eldest daugh
ter eight, and her sister the same number.
In Spain five royal children have forty-four
names among them. Icarolsor: 111. and
his wife have three names each, and the
Prince Imperial has five; but others of the
BONAPARTE family have many more. The
ORLEANS children aver
aged five each,
and the BounnoNs four. The Queen
of Hanover has twelve; VICTOR EMMA
NUEL, seven; his eldest son eight; and
his sister-in-law twelve. The deposed Duch
ess
eof Modenar
c e
Queen Victoria's daughter, has six names.
One of the Saxe Weimar Princes has
ten, but the Royal Houses of Portugal and
Saxony carry this absurdity of bearing
many names to the extreme. King Louts,
of Portugal, has nineteen names, while two
sisters and a brother haveforty-two among
them, and three more of that family rejoice
in twenty-one names apiece. The King •of
Sakony has sixteen—but the average of his
House is one lower. some of the inferior
princely houses of Europe are very strong
in the Dame line.
Very much in contrast with the strange
practice of loading children with a crowd
of names, is the generalpracticeln countries
wholly or partly republican. Out of seven
teen persons who have occupied our Presi
dential Chair, all except three had only one
Christian name. In England, too, among
the great political rulers and leaders, the
ROM may be observed WALroLE, the two
PITTS, CANNING, GREY,PEEL, BROVerrAM,
GRATTAN, ConDEN, BRIGHT, DISRAELI,
and a great number of one-named persons
might be counted up, and a comparatively
small number of eminent men with more
than one—though in this minority arc Fox,
SHERIDAN, and CURRAN; Lords DERBY
and PALMERSTON, and Mr. GLADSTONE.
Among the single names are the two BA
CONS, (RocEm and FRANCIS,) SHAKSPEARE,
JONsoN, MILTON, COWLEY, MARVELL,
DONNE, DIVATDEN, PoPE, PRIOR, GOLD
SMITH, SAMUEL JOHNSON, COWPER, SCOTT,
ROGERS, MOORE, EDGEWORTH, SMOLLETT,
FIELDING, GRIFFIN, and DICKENS.
All this, -however, is a digression from
the original question, whether VKronrA,
"head of the 6htireh," has riot Yi6lated
her own Rubric by giving seven instead of
three sponsors to her little grandson ? It is
to be hoped they will make a good Christian
of him, at any rate.
Grax.vnAL Cox, the Union Candidate for
Governor of Ohio, has written a letter ac
cepting the nomination of the Union party,
which is calculated to excite much discus
sion by the frankness and the freshness of
its SUggestions. We print an article, giving
a condensation of the letter, from the Cin
cinnati Tines, with the comments of that
paper.
THE SOUTHERN NEWSPAPERS that refuse
to yield to the national authority, and cir
culate the speeches of disloyal •and disaf
fected preachers and politicians, copy the
articles of the New York World and News,
as the best reading they can giire to the
Southern people. Thus, the rebei still bor
rows hope in his new treason from his old
sympathizing. friends.

ART. XX. No person shall have the right to

tution of this COunnonweaith, woo atom not

language, and write his Atine.
JOHN S. DOUGHERTY, who died in this city a
few days ago—a partner in the enterprising,
news and publishing house of Elias Barr, at
Lancaster—was one of the most esteemed and
patriotic men in the State. His loss is severe
ly felt by the community in which he was so
useful and respected a citizen.
What of the Night?"
But a day or two ago I penned an article
(" The Under-Current") in relation: to the pre
sent treaeonahle aims of the Southern leaders
and the reasons for their readiness to adopt
the theory that their States have never been
out of the Union, viz.: that they now desire,
as soon and as quietly as possible, to return to
State Government, and then, proclaiming all
their old theories again, to put them into
practice, acting upon "State rights," and re
instating slavery, in One form or another, in
spite of both the wish and power of the nation.
I did so not so much from any concerted, re
cent action on their part then known to me,
as from my thorough knowledge of the animus
with which the rebellion was commenced and
has been carried on from beginning to end.
I did it because I saw the whole North running
mad with foolish theories Of universal pardon
and immediate universal suffrage, both full of
error • and ruin. Strange, indeed, that the
lessons of thirty years' agitation, the bullying
and murdering in Congress, the final treason,
the• four years' systematic butehery, and the
tortures of Andersonville and Libby, have
given no wisdom to Northern men, who have
not only looked upon but suffered by it all.
But strange and veracious verifications of my
declarations are before the nation almost
before the warning is in type. The papers of
to-day are full- of Southern threats and trea-
SODS. Worth Carolina is not to come back
unless she keeps her slaves. Tennessee is to
do as she pleases, and Virginia to elect the
idols of the rebel troops—or else, or else,
whati Or else, they say, there is to be no
Union!! ! The announcement has come: earlier
thau I supposed; but the spirit is exactly what
I wrote it was.
I have suffered by this rebellion much, and
expect to suffer more. I have earned the right
to speak my mind upon it ; and both the right
and duly remain the same, though the nation
is determined to make itself both blind and
deaf, and will neither see nor hear. The warn
ing Shall be spoken all the same. It May. Wale
to its senses yet.
The Southern leaders never for a single mo
ment have cherished an idea of giving up
slavery, - educating the negro, and returning
in peace and with peaceful aims to the bosom
of the Union. They . do intend to return ; but
to cheat et , bully the nation when they come,
and to keep the old bone of discord in their
midst, and do their work-by slavery again.
Tula may God and the nation forbid !
lie who gave us victory has given the
strength to keep the grasp we are holding.
The demon of treason is down,but is not dead.
The nation's lingers are around its throat.
She has the power to keep her grasp till it 1.5
strangled dead and cold. In Heaven's name,
hold it to its death, and keep an extra hand
on all the mourners at its grave!
Let the nation, by its Million voices, daily
declare that treason must perish from the
land, and with it all that stirs its ugly blood ;
that slavery is not only hewn flown,nd its
roots must be dug up; that (his is a Govern
ment of freemen, and shall so remain; that
no power on earth shall Step between the na
tion and its peace; that though the territory
of the Southern States has over remained
within the 'Union, its rebellious inhabitants
have put themselves beyond the pale of its
protection and forfeited their every right;
that they can onlyresurne them again through
mercy,. and not by right; that mercy will
never reach those who are plotting further
crimes ; and that until they are xestored they
will be restrained, and then the Government
will enact the nation's will,'and the war will
not have been wholly in vain. But in all con
science let us hear no more of universal par
don and immediate universal suffrage, with
treason Still thundering at our doors; and
slavery wriggling back into life again.

American Dental Association.
[Special Correspondence of The Press.]
CHICAGO, Augustl, 1865
The fifth annual meeting of the American
Dental Association, a representative body
composed of delegates from State, county, and
local deptal societies and dental colleges in
various parts of the Union, was in session for
four days during the past week in Chicago, Il
linois, one hundred and forty delegates being
present from Massachusetts, Vermont, Rhode
Island, Connecticut, icw York,
ennsylvanin,
Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, lowa, Mis
souri, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Georgia.
The Association assembled on Tuesday, July
25th, 1865, and was called to order at ten
o'clock by the President, Dr. J. II MeQuill en,
or rliiiaaelphia. An address of welcome, by
Dr. W. W. Aliport, chairman of the committee
on arrangements, was delivered, and briefly
responded to by the president. After the or
ganization of the society, the following gen
tlemen were elected officers for the ensuing
year: President, Dr. C. W. Spalding, of St.
Louis ; First Vice President, Dr. C.D. cashing,.
of Chicago; Second Vice President, Dr. James
McManus, of Hartford, Conn. ; Corresponding
Secretary, Dr. L. D. Shepherd, of Salem, Mass.;
Recording Secretary, Dr. J. Taft, of Cincin
nati, Ohio; Treasurer, Dr. J. J. Weatherbee, of
Boston, Mass.
Dr. Spalding, on taking the chairolelivered
a brief address, thanking the members for the
honor done him, and then called on the re
tiring President, who delivered a farewell ad
dress, embracing a concise but complete his
tory of the formation mid progress of the
American Dental Association, in accordance
with a resolution of the preceding meeting.
The reports of the various standing beim:nit
t ees on the Science and Art of the Profession
were, in addition to a number of volunteer
essays, made the subjects of discussion, elicit
ing thereby not only a great deal of interest,
but proving also highly instructive to the
members present. Drs. Fitch, Spalding, Atkin
son, Chase, Buckingham, Ellis, Hill, Perkins,
Taft, Watt, MeQuillen, Shepard, Clark, Mc-
Manus, Morgan, Forbes, and others, participa
ted in this.
At the request of the Association several lec
tures were delivered before the body. The first
of these was by Dr. Daniel Brainard, Professor
of Surgery in Rush Medical College, Chicago,
upon the 4, Special Branches of Medical, Sure.
cal, and Dental Studies." The lecturer, in an
eloquent and attractive manner, sketched the
rise and progress of dentistry as a specialty,
from the time when it was considered a mere
mechanical art to the present time, when it
bits developed itself into a most important
special branch of the medical profession. This
rapid progress he considered in a high degree
due to the fact of its having been studied as a
speciality; men haying devoted their entire
time and attention to its pursuit. This special
study the lecturer considered to be of great
importance, and worthy of consideration and
adaptation in other iiffindieS Of medical
science. Ile considered the path Of progress
in medical science to be by the way of special
study; by this he did not mean to advise the
separation of the various branches, or to sug
gest that they should be distinct one from the
other. lie believed that dentistry should not
be separated front the medical profession, and
hoped to see the day when there tihould be
a chair for diseases of the dental organs in
every respectable medical college of the laud.
In conclusion, Dr. Brainard, on behalf of the

medical profession, heartily welcomed the
delegates to Chicago.
A lecture was also delivered by Dr. Hildreth
on " Diseases of the Eye." Two lectures were
delivered by Dr. McQuillen, one on "the Anat
omy and Physiology of Vision," and the other
other on "the Circulation of the Blood," spe
cial applications being made to each to the
practice of dentistry.
During the session of the association, a num
ber of entertainments were given In the even
ings to the delegates, by Dr. W. W. Ailport,
Prof. Miller, and Prof. bt. S. Davis, President of
the American Medical Association. At the
residence of the latter, to the following senti
ment by Dr. Spalding, "Medicine, Surgery,
and Dentistry, practical departmentS Of a COM.
mon science, whose disciples should constitute
a common brotherhood,"Prof.Davis responded
in an able and eloquent address, setting forth
the importance and necessity, to special as
well as general practitioners, of possessing a
thorough and complete knowledge of medi
cine; whilst favoring special lines of practice,
he advocated the maintenance, by constant
study, of a thorough knowledge of the entire
range of medical science.
The meeting was truly a national gathering
bringing together practitioners from all sec
tions of the country. The deliberations were
eharacteried by the Utmost harmony and
good feeling, and they were of such a charac
ter as to exercise a powerful influence in ad
vaneing the interest of the dental profession.
The interest manifested by the leading meth

were present during the session, as well as the
kindness and courtesy received at their hands,

Tat NEGito-AuPPIZADE QITESTIOIf.
Governor Westcott, like most of the South
erners here, favors the extension of the suf
frage to the 'freedmen of the South. They are
made free, he says, universal freedom has
been proclaimed, and it is now a stultification
to deny them the right to vote. He does not
believe they will vote with their former mas
ters, but they will give the South a larger
basis of representation, and raise her in im
portance in the nation. He is peculiarly bitter
on the Democratic party. They are cowards
and traitors, too, he says, and he will never.
again in his life, if he votes at all, vote for a
Democrat. He will vote for none but Repub
licans. There is no issue now, ho argues, be
tween the South and the Republican's. Slavery
is gone—secession is forever dead. Tile South
should now unite in keeping the Republican
party in power, and in preventing the restora
tion of Democratic ascendancy.

A STUMM MO) ROMANTIC CMCIINSTANcE.—
Atilalf-past two o'clock on Wednesday morm
ing, while the steamer Philadelphia was en
route for Hilton Head, having on board the
131st New York Volunteers, when about half a
mile below Fort Pulaski, a citizen, clad in re
bel uniform, for some unexplained reason sud
denly grasped private Henry Cameron, of
Company C, 131st New York olunteers; and
attempted to push him over the deek-guards
into the river. Cameron supposing the fellow
was joking, or trying to play some kind of a
trick, clinched his opponent closely, and- held
onto his clothing ; but he soon discovered that
the man was in earnest, and really intended to
put him overboard. Before he could extricate
himself from the would-be murderer, both
partiCS lost their. balance, and, almost ;mob
served by the large number of soldiers on
board. fell into the river. Cameron says
he heard the citizen strike the wood-work
on the paddle-boxes, and in a few se
conds heard stifled groans, and lie thinks
the paddle-wheels struck the drowning
_mart
and killed him, as he saw nothing-of him atter
the occurrence. camuron being a geed switn
mer, at once struck out boldly for the shore,
nmclr was half a mile distant, experiencing
great difficulty in stemming the swift current
with his clothing on. He finally succeeded
with great difficulty in divesting himself of
all his clothing, and pressed rapidly for the
dim outlines of the shore, which he reached
in a nude and terribly exhausted condition.
Cameron landed on an extensive bed of oys
ters, cutting hiS feet badly, and here he re
mimed till daylight, waiting, like MieftWber,
"for something to turn up)) His eyes were
gladdened at daylight by beholding the white
sails of a fishing smack, which he hailed, and
was soon taken on board by Valentine Martin,
a fisherman, who at once conveyed Cameron
to his house, at Sebastopol, on Long. Island,
fed him bountifully, and gave him sonic
clothing. The next day Valentine Martin con

ANOTRER DASTARDLY ATTE:III.T TO INFLICT
PERSONAL INJURY UPON GEN. GRANT:It will
be remembered that when Gen. Grant gave a
public reception at the Astor House, New York,
sonic iiihO since, some dastardly fellow tllade
an attempt to wrench the General's arm out
of joint, by seizing his hand with a vice-like
grasp and twisting it around in a painful man
ner. A similar attempt to injure the General
was mad e at the Fan evil Ilan reception, in this
city, on Monday. While the throng of ladies
auil gentlemen were paying their personal re.;
speets to the distinguished hero; an individual
approached him and seized Ms Mina in the
same manner that it was grasped in New York,
attempting to give it a sadden twist, which
the General succeeded in - preventing only by
forcibly withdrawing it. One of the Aldermen
who witnessed the operationseized theman by
the neck, but the reseal escaped from him. and
was quickly lost in the crowd which washutk r
rying past. There is no doubt but that it was
a del iberate attempt to inflict personal injury
upon the General, and we understand, also,
that he was identified as the same person who
tried the same game in New York.—Boston
Courier, 22d.
CENSUS STATISTICS.—The following estimates
are deduced from census returns now in pro
gress of preparation, with a view to the publi
cation of a volume on-manufactures. The
work is being urged forward,. and will proba
bly be issued about the opening of Congress :
New England represents an increase in the
manufacture of woollen goods of sixty-two
hundred per cent., the Middle States seven
and three-tenths per cent., the Western States
ten and two-fifths per cent., the Southern
States one hundred and forty-three per cent.,
and the Pacific States—Oregon and California,
which made no return of manufactures in
lEso—report two hundred and thirty-five thou
sand dollars as the total manufacture of wool
lens. The total increase in the States and Ter
ritories is forty-two hundred per cent. on
*43,524,288 in 1850. All the States show an in
crease except New York; Delaware, Ohio,
Michigan, and Illinois; and - the only State
from which there is no return for the manu
facture of Woollens is Arkansas.
STEEL Loctourivcs.—The Manyport and Car.
lisle Company have, for some time past, erna
ployed steel,. to a great extent, in substitution
of ordinary iron for the working parts of lo
comotives, and, as we arc informed, with the
most satisfactory results. The traftlee, on the
line is principally coal and mineral. It has
been found that, with the ordinary iron tires
on the engine wheels the distance ruu was not
more than 00,000 miles—in many eases not
more than 00,000 miles—and the wheels re
quire to be taken from under the engine for
every 20,000 or 30,000 miles run, for repairs
and I'turning up." In the case of the steel
tires, however, the wheels will run 100,000
miles before they require "turning up" or
repairing. The result of a very careful ex
amination of the effect of wear leads to the
opinion that these Wheels will run front
150,000 to 000000, miles , or equal to some
twelve or fifteen years' work of a daily
average of about 100 miles. •
A SMART OLD LADY.—Mrs. iiaycten , L smart
old lady of seventy-five, in Braintree, Mass.,

caught sight of a rattlesnake, with raised
head, about ready for a spring. Seizing a
Stick, she thrust it into his open month and
down his throat, thus holding him to the
ground ; then drawing a stone to her by the
aid of her foot, she, with stick and stone, de.
snatched the " varmint" by severing the
bead from the body. Shouldering the snake,
she started for home, with a .pail of berries in
each hand, but confesses to being a "little
startled" when the headless body was Sadden
ly coiled around her throat, and concluded to
transport her prize some other- way, The
snake measured nearly five feet, and had ten
rattles.

Advice to the Provisional Governor of
Alabama—The Opinions' of the Peo
ple, as Expressed by a Mobile Jour
nal—They Want Congressmen by the
First Monday in December—The Ken
tucky Election—An Order from Gen.
Palmer.
(From the Mobile Register, 22d ult.]
We announced yesterday the arrival at
Montgomery of the lion. L. E. Parsons, the
lately appointed Provisional Governor of Ala
bama. The intelligence will be received by a
multitude of persons with great satisfaction.
In the history of the State it has never hap
pened to any one man to occupy a - position in
which the hopes, expectations, and interests
of a whole people so largely clustered around
him. Re is the Palinurus whose skill is relied
upon to steer the ship of State, lately wrecked
upon the billows. 01 revolution, back to the
safe port, from which, with excited pilots on
board, and stem-sails set, she turned her
prow seaward four years ago.
We need not impress upon Gov. Parsons the
importance of as speedy a restoration of the
Slate to the dominion of civil law as is possi
ble. The present amphibious condition of
things is embarrassing to all parties and inju
rious to all interests. We are a people in a
perlod of profound peace, living under mili
tary government. According to the declared
policy at Washington, we have never been out
of the 'Union; yet, for any practical purpose we
are not in the Union. The State itself is in a
- condition of complete political and civil dis
integdation, without organic law, legislature
or judiciary. Gov. Parsons is the civil archi
tect appointed to reconstruct the broken edi
fice of f3ovcriiment, to re-assemble the law-ma
kers, reinvest the judges with the ermine of
their exalted offices; and to renew the broken
ligaments which are to bind her in political
fellowship to her peers of the Federal Union.
The sooner all this grave work is completed
the better, provided it be well and wisely
done. We hope to see it ihilshed, so that by
the first Monday of December, the Senators .
and Representatives from Alabama may pre
sent their credentials in the Congress of the
United States, and be there cordially wel
comed by the sitting members of that body.
And so they will be by all who have supported
the late war upon its ostensible ground; to wit:
that it Was a war for the preservation of the
Union—a war to Maintain the integrity of a
great empire: Any man or party in Congress
that throws obstacles in the way of the ear
liest return of the delegates from the South to
seats in the General Council Chamber of the
nation, at once ignores this Union theory, and
proclaims the falsity and insincerity of his
adherence to, and adoption of, the. war
:policy and principles declared by the United
States Government to the whole world: The
arrival of the Southern delegations at Wash
ington, will apply a test to the Unionism of the
members of Congress, and will show who made
war from motives of passion and revenge, and
who, from a patriotic devotion to the - Union.
It will be a severe test, but a wholesome and.
instructive one. We look, therefore, with so.
licitude for an early prOthUlgatioll Of Gover
nor Parsons' proclamation for a Convention.
We have lost much valuable time, and are be
hind, we believe, all our Southern sisters; who
are passing through the same political travail.
Meantime we renew our advice to our readers,
and the people generally, to lose no time in
qualifying . themselves to vote, by renewing
their allegiance to the United States.

NEGRO SUFFRAGE ADTOCATED.—EX-SellatOF
Foote, of Tennessee, who is now reluctantly
chewing "the cud of sweet and bitter fancy"
in Canada, for want of permission to return to
the United States,an_ d
who has inflicted a
good many long epistles on the public, is out
.with a letter to Mr. A. 0. P. Nicholson, of Ten
nessee. lie discusses the state of the South in
general, and the subject of negro suffrage in
particular. He says slavery is clearly now at
an end, and its revival impossible, and the
sooner the South realizes this fact the better.
But, more than this:
"We must, in order to be free ourselves,
agree never hereafter to interfere with the
freedom of others. We must amend our State
Constitutions as soon as possible, and embody
therein our consent that the four millions of
bondmen and bondwetnen heretofore existing
upon Southern soil shall be henceforth as free
in all respects as those of the white race who
lately dominated over them ; in other words,
we namt formally recognize the state of thin :gs
already existing, mid bind ourselves to do
nothing . to disturb it in all future time. We
must, in order to assure our own return to
liberty and happiness, not only recognize the
colored denizens of the South as now free, but
VCElnst n'uoai them the same means of pre.
serving their freedom that we ourselves de
sire to Possess. They must be freemen in titet
as well as in name.
"We must consent to their being invested with
the elective franchise,. and this must be done,
too, no matter what cherished notions we may
entertain in regard to the mental Inferiority
of those whom some of us have heretofore re
garded as the doomed posterity of Ham. NM,
can we now safely talk about carrying them
through a course of special tutelage and prOba
lion, such as I understand you to recommend,
ere we make them our own equals before the
law of the land. These are not at all matters
for our regulation, but are to be attended to by
those who hold in their hands exclUsively the
sword and the puree of the nation.
"I tell you, my dear sir, and through you I
wish to urge upon the - whole mass of my fellow
countryman of the South, that these things
must be done by us, else our States will not be
allowed to have Senators and Representatives
in Congress, or even be permitted, without
molestation, to ,administer their own muni
cipal concerns. This,
I say to you emphati
cally, is a settled matter ; it is resfrudicatai and
there is no appeal for,us in the ease."
• Mr. Foote concludes with a plea for equal
rights to negroes, on the grownd that it will
open a gloriouS era for the South.
" Our true friends and oar future allies in
the North are those who are now pleading in
our behalf for justice and for a - kindly and
Politic forbearance as to the past. If we fall
not to be equal to the demands of the present
critical exigency, we shalt in a few short years
at most and ourselves once more happy, and
safe, and prosperous. For I am not among
those who at all doubt the complete success of
the new system of labor now being introduced
in. the South; nor do I agree with those who
apprehend any great injury of any kind as
likely to arise from the proposed extension of
the elective franchise to both classes of our
Southern population alike.
I doubt not at all that with proper judg
ment, diligence, and thrift, Southern planta
tions will be as prosperous under the new sys
tem of agricultural labor as they ever were
under the old one '
• and I am decidedly of an
opinion that there will be as little of fraud
and unfairness in our elections hereafter in
the Southern States, and upon tho whole as
judicious and beneficial an exercise of the
right of suffrage as there has ever heretofore
been:,

Sin : 7. am happy to be able to report that the
Planters and freedmen in this section are gene
rally entering into written contracts, which
are binding for the rest of the year. Where
there are many infirm and helpless to support,
and the planter has but a small crop to secure.
the contract is for food, clothing, houses, fuel,
and medical attendance ; but working hands
are receiving as compensation from two to
twelve dollars per month in some cases;
in others, from two to thirteen and a half
bushels ,of- corn per month, or a share
of the crops, varying, according to cir
circumstances, from one-fourteenth to one
quarter and one-third of the whole amount
raised. There is a great demand for labor
now,and there are no idle freedmen about
the city. Not a ration has been drawn for any
freedmen here, except the sick and attendants
at the Freedmen's Hospital.
Very respectfully, your obedierft servant,

Free Trade
From the Chicago Tribitne We take the an
"Free trade and tariff is, in fact, only a ques
tion of work and wages; for free trade forces
us to compete with the pauper labor of Eu
rope, while a judiciousprotective tariff brings
those laborers to us, shelters, feeds, clothes,
and educates them, as they can never be shel
tered, fed, clothed, and educated where they
are, and converts thetfk and their posterity
from paupers into good citizens and valuable
members of society.
"Free trade carries the farmer's grainaeross
the ocean, and takes the price of transporta-
tion oat of his pocket, while a judicious pro
tective tariff takes his wheat, his corn, his
oats, and every other thing that he raises but
cannot send away, sells them to the manufac
turer at his own door, and puts the price of
transportation into his pocket.
"Workingmen'of our country, keep your
money, and close your ears to the sophistry of
English traders and their alders and abettors,
who, having burned our ships and ruined our
commerce, under the pretext of 'neutrality
and belligerent rights,' are now ready to spend
millions to force us to buy our goods in their
market, and thus freight their ships both ways
over the ocean
"It is a remarkable fact that the Board of
Trade. Convention, comprising about four hun
dred of the
most active and intelligent busi
ness men from all parts of the United States,
voted by acclamation and with hat one dis
senting voice for Congressional discrimination
in favor of American manufactures.
" Such unanimity in favor of agreat National
question, that has vexed pOlitjelann during the
past generation, and one, too, upon which
commercial men have generally been on the
free trade side, is a most significant fact, and
indicates the growing sentiment of the people
in favor of an ample tariff on foreign manufac
tures. -
" Every other question that was brought be
fere the Convention was discussed with zeal
and ability, and with strong parties on eithet.

Steadfast devotion in the service of your noun

The tendrils that have wound around our

fame. You will be welcomed to your homes to
enjoy the advantages of the Government you

guard carefully what you have gained and so
well sustained in battle; let moral goodness
and integrity characterize your course, and a
grateful people will bless you, and a proud
nation claim and reward you as her most de
serving citizens. With sincere thanks for
your uniform courtesy and cheerful co-opera

vent prayers to Almighty God for your happi
ness and prosperity through life, mid warmest
sympathies for the bereaved families of the

• The apprehensions of a short crop in wheat
and barley are exerting a strong influence, as
it is evidently believed that the crop will not
reach much more than one-balf what was first
expected. The effects of this may be seen in
au :Advance of forty cents per bushel, on wheat
in thirty Clays, and a speculation which made
a temporary advance of sixty cents. This
- effect is not usually felt until the last half of
the year, for we have enough grain gathered
to live on this year, but for this season an ex
ception is made, and we shall have to pay the
price Tor wheat grown last year on account of
the heavy rains last month, which so greatly
injured the present eroP.
It is stated that the committee of New York
brokers had an interview with the Secretary
of the Treasury on Monday, asking a recon
sideration of the order directing the brokers'
till"' to be collected, and that air. McCulloch
having fully considered the matter with Mr,
Orton, Commissioner of Internal Revenue, hag
decided adversely to the application of the
committee representing the brokers and bank
ers of New York, for a postponement of the
collection of taxes on sales for themselves,
pending a decision of the United' States Su
preme Court.
There is a strong feeling among the New
York gold operators for a rise in the premium
on coin. The argument is this : That the dis
bursements of the national treasury will ple
thorize the money market, and, as there is no
national loan now to absorb the surplus, a de
mand will be created for gold for the purpose
of hoarding until such time as another Govern
meat loan may be authorized, which cannot
take place until Congress meets in DeCeMber.
The increased importations have also a ten
dency to raise the price, under the anticipa
tion of a foreign demand. On the other hand,
it is held that the Government, with a surplus
of twenty-live millions, can at any time pre
vent a rise by throwing from two to five mil
lions upon the market, or any amount suffi
cient to break down the operations and antici
pations of the bulls.
