THE STATES.
VIRGINIA. —The War Department has de
cided, with the approval of Gen. Grant, not
o restore the property of Ex-Governor Hen
ry A. Wise, of Virginia. Gen. Terry's action
in refusing to give up the estate is fully sus
tained. Wise's house is still used as a school
for the children of fieedmen i and John
Brown's daughters are the teachers.—Rich
mond papers say that the City Council on
Wednesday adopted an ordinance repealing
at once all existing ordinances relating to
negro slaves.—One juryman summoned in
Richmond, on October 25, refusedto take the
oath to support the Constitution of the Uni
ted States and the restored Government of
Virginia. and was fined $8 by the Judge,--B.
J. Barbour, Representative elect for the
Third District of Virginia, is about to can
vass New Jersey in behalf of the Union
ticket.
LOIIISIANA.—The Provost Marshal Courts
connected with the Freedmen's Bureau have
been abolished. The officers of the Bureau
will still strive to secure justice to the Freed
men..
ITEms.—Efforts are being made to have
Col. Moseby brought to trial for guerilla out
rages.—There are 2781 employees in the
Treasury Department at Washington.—The
real and personal property of Pennsylvania,
returned to Harrisburg, by the last census,
1t51,659,298,924. For Philadelphia the re
turn is $242,668,947 real, $151,475,521 per
sonal—making a total of $394,144,468.
The child en of Jeff Davis are in Canada.
The daughter, 9 years old, is a pupil in the
Convent.—About fifty thousand tons of
Pittston and Scranton coal were sold October
25, at auction. The prices obtained at the
sale on the 4th were hardly sustained, the
following decline being submitted to : Lump
coal, 50 cents; steamboat coal, $1,05; grate
coal, 50 cents ; egg coal, 90 cents ; stove coal,
10 cents; chestnut coal, 86 cents.—An ex
amination has proVed that eight hundred
houses in Petersburgh have been struck by
shells during the fighting before that place.
THE CITY.
The heavy vote against Given, the Union
candidate for City Commissioner, at the last
election is remembered by.all. On October
26, a batch of large envelopes, containing
votes of soldiers stationed at .Baton Rouge,
La., and Lynchburg, Ara., was received at the
office of the Prothonotary of the Court of
Common Pleas. The envelopes were all of
the same size and color, and bore the postmark
New York and Washington, with the date of
October 25, upon them. Every regiment and
company reported, shows a heavy vote for
Given, and a majority in his favor of over
1,000. The Public Ledger comments on these
envelopeS as follows : They bear, in . our
judgment, unmistakable earmarks of fraud.
It is not expected, we firmly believe, that
these pretended returns will bear the test of
judicial examination, but they are to be used
simply for the purpose of giving John Given
a certificate for an office for which he has
been rejected by the people. We lame seen
samples of them, in which one or two com
panies cast as many votes as whole regiments
have been known to do, when an election is
properly conducted.
COTTON.
The N. Y Times of Oct. 25th says: An
unusually active business in cotton is in pro
gress at this port. Last week's receipts
reached 29,115 bales; sales and resales, 19,-
400 bales. The receipts thus far in the cur
rent week average 3,892 bales a day; and the
sales and resales, 7,500 bales a day. The ex
ports from the port during the week end
ing last evening, reached the extraordinary
amount of 12,587 bales, including 12,413
bales—valued at $3,032,022 in currency—to
the single port of Liverpool:
The receipts of cotton at the port of New
York since the Ist. inst., add up 93,278
bales, against 36,631 bales exported from the
port in the same period. At an average of
$240 a bale, these receipts represent a cur
rency value of $22,386,720, and the exports
$8,791,440. The receipts at this port since
the commencement of the current commercial
year, Sept. Ist, amount to 204,144 bales, or,
at the average of $240 a bale, nearly $49,-
000,000 (precisely $48,994,560) in currency.
The local market for the staple closed quite
briskly and buoyantly yesterday, under an
animated demand for spinners, shippers and
speculative purchasers. The stock of cotton
on hand and on shipboard not cleared in this
port is estimated at 150,000 bales, worth
ab0ut136,000,000.
The receipts of cotton at all the shipping
ports of the United States thus far in the
-current cotton year, beginning with Sept. 1,
reach 250,000 bales, against exports in the
same period of 107,000 bales. Included in
the exports have been 98,500 bales to Great
Britain, 7,000 bales to France, and 1,500
bales to other foreign ports, making up the
grand total of 107,000 bales. The estimated
stock on hand and on shipboard not cleared,
at all the shipping ports, is 326,500 bales
roughly valued at over $78,000,000.
MISCELLANEOUS
MR. SEWARD has sent a message to the
Provisional Governor of Georgia, that the
President cannot recognize a State as having
resumed the relations of loyalty to the Union
that admits the legality of the debts con
tracted by them to aid the rebellion.
MORE SOLDIRS perished at Andersonville
than the British army lost in battle in the
leading , engagements with Napoleon, includ
ing. Waterloo, in the Crimea, and at New
Orleans.
'FINANCIAL
THE NATIONAL REVENUES. —The heavy
returns from internal revenue continue to
pour into the Treasury with remarkable
steadiness. It seems that the system works
exceedingly well, producing great results,
with, upon the whole, a very small amount
of damage to any of the national industries
or interests. The greater part of the com
plaints that were made against the measure
from special interests before it was finally
established as law, and before the effects of
its operation were known, have been hushed
up. There are still some, but they are very
few. We think the coming Congress should
do as little tinkering upon the law as possible.
Its leading principle and features, we take it,
are now permanent, though of course its
burdens may be judiciously lightened from
time to time. The governmental commission,
which is now in session examining this whole
subject of taxation, is understood to be, in
the main, satisfied with things, or at least
with principles, as they now are.—N. Y.
Times.
At New York a good many of the Banks
report themselves too poor to lend even on
call, owing to the withdrawal of currency to
Southern and Western points, 'and the fund
ing of legal tenders. The Baltimore Com
menial understands that some of the banks
of that city, being short of currency, are dis
counting in 7-30 s, and the increased supply
thrown on.the market from this cause tends
to reduce the price. It is said the entire ex
penditure of the Government during the cur
rent fiscal year will not exceed $266,000,000.
The total circulation of the old State banks,
added to the National bank currency, was
THE AMERICAN PRESBYTERIAN, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1865.
less on the Ist of October by several millions,
than the circulation of the State banks Jany.
Ist 1863, before the National bank currency
was introduced. The cry of "inflation" p by
means of the latter, which we so often hear,
is therefore unfounded. —54,354,480 of
"certificates," including interest, were re
deemed by the U. S. Treasury last week.
—The total paper circulation of the Colin•
try ca put at $922,586,240. This includes
greenbacks, National currency, postage cur
rency and State bank circulation.
FOREIGN.
CLAIMS AGAINST THE BRITISH GOVERN
MENT.—The correspondence has been pub
lished between Minister Adams and Earl
Russel, on our claim for indemnity, for the
ravages of the anglo-rebel pirates. Earl Rus
sel rejects the claim, and says the British
Government did its whole duty. He propo
ses a commission to settle all questions which
arose between the two Governments during
the war, which the two Powers shall agree to
refer to the commissioners," and he closes his
letter by congratulating Mr. Adams on the
overthrow of the rebellion and the abolition
of slavery. Mr. Adams in his concluding re
reply says, if the example thus set by Her
Majesty's Government shouldcome to be gen
erally adopted, and the principles of neutrality
upon which it-rests be recognized as a part of
the code of international law, then it is not
difficult to foresee the probable consequence.
A new era in the relations of neutrals to bel
ligerents on the high seas will open. Neutral
ports, in that event, will before long become
the true centres from which the most effective
and dangerous enterprises against the com
merce of belligerents may be contrived, fitted
out and executed. The existing restrictions
upon the exploits of dazing adventurers will
rapidly become obsolete, and no new ones will
be adopted. . Ships, men and money, will
always be at hand for the service of any
Power sufficiently strong to hold forth a pro
bability of repayment in any form, or adroit
enough to secure a share of the popular sym
pathy in its undertakings. New Floridas,
Alabamas and Shenandoalts will appear on
every sea. If such be the recognized law, I
will not undertake to affirm that the country
which I have the honor to represent would
not in the end be as able to accommodate it
self to the new circumstances as Greatßritairt."
He refers • the question of a commission to
his government at Washington,_ and while he
accepts Lord Russell's congratulations on the
abolition of slavery, he cannot forget that his
Lordship visited with all the severity of his
too weighty censure," the act of emancipa
tion by which that result was brought about ;
nor can he disguise the fact, that with his
government and country at large " there is
still left a strong sense of injured feeling,
which only time and the hopes of a better
understanding in future are likely to correct."
A Washington dispatch of Oct. 25 says.—
The notice issued by the State Department,
some time since, calling for the presentation
of claims against foreign Governments, has
been quite freely responded to. U. S. 5-20's
had declined to 611 @6B.
The cholera was very violent in Madrid.
Oct. 12, there were 540 cases and 175 deaths.
Other rerts say that the disease is dimin
ishing. We give the following figures; 85
deaths out of 370 cases on the 11th inst., and
50 deaths out of 268 attacks on the 12th.
The number of cases on the 13th was 215. It
is said the disease is also at Epping, near
London.
ITEMS.
Governor Fenton has dismissed the charges
made against the officials of New York city.—
The receipts of cotton in one week; at New
York, for five days only, reach the large figure of
30,628 bales—equal in value to about $9,000,-
000 in currency, and over $6,000,000 in Gold.
The demand for export is met with some
freedom •by holders, and the increased out
ward movement, so long anticipated, is now
being realized.—John Mitchell has been
released from confinement. —The Dutch
Gap Canal, which General Butler undertook
as a military measure, the Richmond Whig
says, ought to be finished for commercial
purposes. 'lt would shorten seven miles of
river navigation.—The cholera has almost
disappeared from the Mediterranean, but has
broken out in a moderate way at severattowns
in England.—Negro troops are to re
ceive the same bounty as white troops.—
The Osage Indians have ceded 1,000,000
acres of land to the Government, for which it
pays $300,000. Two million acres are also
ceded in trust for the Indians.-3500 bales
of cotton were burned at Memphis, Oct. Ist.
The Washington correspondent of the
Philadelphia Ledger states that complaint is
made that too much ammunition is finding its
way to Southern ports.—ln the Connecti
cut town elections, the republicans are ahead
throughout the State, as usual. The amend
ment was not made a test party question, on
account of the numbers of republicans who
voted against it or did not vote at all.—
Over 4000 bales of cotton were burned in
Mobile, Oct. sth.-4000 barrels of coal oil
were, burned in Philadelphia, Oct. Bth.--
25000 bales of cotton will be produced this
year along the line of the Illinois Central
Railroad.—A new planet has been discov
ered by the artronomers at Ann Arbor,
Michigan.—A leading speculator in the
New York cattle market, failed lately to
the amount of sloo.ooo,—The mayor of
Alexandria, Va., having recently deprived a
negro of his fowling-piece, on the ground
that the statutes of Virginia rendered such
possession by a •negro illegal, the Provost
judge ordered it to be returned, with the
declaration that, "the colored man must be
regarded, so far as the right of property and
freedom of person is concerned precisely on
the same footing with the white citizen; no
more, no less."—Edward B. Ketchum has
plead guilty to the charge of forgery in the
third degree. —J. Barclay Harding, of the
Evening Telegraph, in this city, is dead.—
The Press of this city says in an elaborate
article on " Our Railroads," that 35,000 miles
of them have been laid in the country, at an
expense of $1,264,336,000.
Another rebellion has succumbed. Cape
Hayden, the last stronghold of the Haytien
rebels, has surrendered to Geffrard.

With that which in these modern days is seen:

Their lit is certain—and, what's sure to please,
In all poeitione there is perfect ease ;
The figures of the young they help to form,
Aiding and not repressing every charm;
Irregularities of shape they hide,

And matrons wearing them a boon will gain,
Theit early symmetry they'll long retain.

SUFFERERS
FROM DYSPEPSIA_
READ! REFLECT!! ACT! !
TARRANT tt; CO.
Gentlemen,
I am. a resident of Curacoa;
and have often been disposed to write you concerning
the real value of your SELTZER APERIENT as a
remedy for Indigestion and Dyspepsia. I desire to
express to you my sincere gratitude for the great
benefit the SELTZER has done my wife.
For four or five years my wife has been sadly afflic
ted with Dyspepsia, and after being under the treat
ment of several Doctors for two or three years, she
was finally induced to seek the advice of a learned
Physician, Doctor Cabialis, of Venezuela, who imme
diately treated her *with your EFFERVESCENT
SELTZER APERIENT she began to improve at once
and is now PERFECTLY WELL.
I feel it to be my duty for the good of humanity to
make this statement, feeling that a medicine so valua
ble should be widely known.
. . . . .
Trusting you will give this publicity, - and repeating
my earnest gratitude and thanks.
I am very respectfully yours.
