C., April 9, 1873, Attorney General Williams has decided to ?u«pend for the present all proceedings against persons indicted in the Southern State? for violating the enforcement act and being members of the Eu Klux Klan. He say? if the laws are respected, and no farther attemptsjnade to-violate them, the prosecutions will be suspended en i.rely; but on the other hanji if disorder t csaes prosecutions w ill be pushed rigor ously. There are over one thousand of these causes now pending in the United States Courts. The President telegraphs to his secre tary here that he expects to reach Wash* 'cgtoc in time to hold the usual cabinet meeting on Tuesday next. Secretary Robeson left for New York last night, to the absent until Monday or Tuesday. While away the War and Kivy departments are without any head, the President not being here to designate £::iag Secretaries during R ibeson’s ab sence. Frequent inquiries are made at the of fice of. Internal Revenue as m the date at which the act of December 24, 1872, will be put in operation. The Commissioner states that the law referred to will take effect May 20, 1873. Secretary Richardson Is just now receiv ing a large number of letters from New York, and elsewhere tendering gratuitous advice as to the best plan to break up the gold speculators in Wall street. Some advise what be shall do, and others what be should hot do ; but the Secretary re mains mum as tu what he may or may not do. The necessity for a military prison for the confinement of offenders subject to military jurisdiction is shown in the case of Robert D. Bogart, clerk to Paymaster Clark of the IT. S. Navy, now undergo ing a second trial before a- naval court martial on the charge of embezzling $3O, 000 from the Government. He was tried and convicted once before, but having no proper place to confine him, the case got into the State Courts and he was by legal technicalities set at liberty. The law of the last Congress for a military prison rem ained no appropriation therefor, but thN- oversight will probably be remedied session. G -vcmment clerks will take out install- Cie r .ts of the new loan bonds cs fast as they are ready for issue. Only Uie actual expenses of the clefks will be allowed. The present members of the Civil Ser vice Advisory Board deny that the civil service reform rules, as approved by the President, will be because of the resignation of George William Cur l:? - or that the resignation will in any w &y affect their operations. Various letters have been received here by the heads of departments urging that a recommendation be made to the nest Congress for the establishment of Exam ining Boards in all the large cities through out the country, so that applicants for positions in the civil service may be spar ed the expense of a sojourn in Washing ton for the mere purpose of competing for a place. The suggestions embodied in these letters can hardly be said to- w >jlh general approval. , The idea of offi t'als with whom I have conversed is that such a course would result in making too ®Qch of the civil service. “Any young tnan who possesses the requisite ability is a fool to come to Washington" to:bury b‘msell as a department clerk,” says reasurer Spinner. The expense incident to the establishment of numerous Exam- 1 toing Boards, the rush for positions that 'vouid follow, the conflict in respect to ,be number of places to be filled from ® ta,e » a °d the impression that would ,fc Crea that a department clerkship- is the best thing in the world to have, are considerations that will weigh heavily against the desired Congressional action.- Tbe Secretary of the Treasury has issued a circular ordering all persons boldingcop per, bronze, oor copper nickel coins, here tofore authorized by law, that they can ex change them for the minor coins, namely, five, three, and one cent pieces, author ized by the act of February, 1873, by pre senting or forwarding them to the Ph ila delphia Mint, in sums of not less than $2O or multiple thereof, properly asorted by denomination, advising the superintend ent of tke amount and kind of coin for warded, and the kind of coin desired In return. The following revenue officers have been assigned to duly : First Lieutenants Thos. Mason detached from the McCul loch, at Portland, Me., and placed on waiting orders ; George Williams detach ed from the Grant, New and ordered to the Delaware; Third Lieutenant H. Newcomb ordered to the Petrel, at Pensacola ; Charles H. Greenway to the Hamilton, at Boston ; W. A. Training to the Relief, at Galveston ; George Delap to the Mosswood, at Eastporl; George E. McConnell to the Nansemond, at Savan nah ; John Wyckoft to Dobbin, at Cestine; F. A. O’Cunner to the Stevens, at New bern. Mr. Biglow, Chief of the Loan Division of the Treasury Department, who goes to Europe in a few days in connection with the new loan, will take hut three clerks with him, and they will he selected from among the most experienced and efficient clerks in the department. The act to revise, consolidate and amend the laws relating to pensions, pass ed during the last days of the late Con gress, contains a provision which ,makes a radical change in the pensions allowed to children of soldiers’widows. Under the old law one child, in the event of the death nr re-marriage of the widow.receiv ed no increase. Under the present law the pensions of widows are increased from and after the 20th day of July, 18G6, at the rate of two dollars per month for each child, under the age of sixteen year?, of the husband on account of whose, death the claim has been, or shall be, granted. Under this law the two dollars increase applies to all the children. Under the old law the widow of an officer received noth ing for her children ; now she receives the two dollars for each child. Eizzil. Though thfr law seems to be clear on the subject, the Secretary of the Interior bas not-yet determined whether the law is retroactive. The opinion of the bureau is that it is. The Commissioner 6f Pen sions finds it impracticable to arrive at the approximation even of the amount re quired to meet this new feature of the law. There are many circumstances which must be taken into consideration, and it has been found that the actual ex penditure must demonstrate the pecunia ry requirements of the law. The provis ions of the act which staled that all col ored persons who enlisted in the army during the late war, and who are now prohibited from receiving bounty and pension,on account of having been borne on the rolls of their regiments as slave?, shall be placed,on the same fooling as to bounty and pensions as though they bad not been slaves at .the date of their enlist ment. The above applies more to boun ty than to pension, the latter will not he materially affected. Previously the moth- er could not be held dependent on the son when both were slaves. The inter pretation of the comptroller states that it applies only to claimants who were" slaves. A colored soldier enlisted could not claim bounty if a slave. If be survived, be can under this law, but his mother or widow cannot. According to the last repprlOf the commissioner of pensions there were, at the end of the fiscal year ending June 30, 1872, two hundred and thirty-two thousand two hundred pensioners £ pf all classes-on the roils, to whom were paid $30,169,341.

Patient* * • The Pittsburgh Commercial of Tuesday last says; Shortly before five o’clock yesterday a steamboat disaster occurred on the Ohio, at the head of Glass House Hippie and near Brunei’s Island, which will result, probably, in the .total de struction of the New Slate, a freight and passenger steamer plying between this city and Wheeling. The New State left Ike Pittsburgh wharf at a quarter after four o’clock with a full cargo, of dry goods, iron, glass, &c., and a considerable number of passengers,, about twenty-five of them being women and children. The accident occurred at about 4:35; by colli sion with the Eagle, a towboat, which was on its way to this city. The river Is high, aud it Was with difficulty that the boats c'-uld he managed, while the place of meeting was an unfortunate one. The fault or blame, if any there was, cannot at this time be pUictd but an invest,’tra tiou will immediately f »II‘»w. Thrj E*>*le struck the New State on the starboard bow, knocking the bow off and staving in the bull. The latter sank immediate ly, while the towboat, which was without weight upon it, seemed to be entirely un injured, except the breaking of the gal lows frame and the jackstaff. The cap tain of the Eagle at once took the passen gers from the unfortunate vessel and brought them to the city, giving them every attention. No person was at all in jured by the accident. It is believtd that the New State will lie a total wreck, but much of the freight will be recovered from her decks. The second mate and a watchman were left on board, with lights, to warn other craft from the danger the sunken boat being immediately in the channel and the river rising. When shq was left by the Eagle the water was wWhm two feet of the cab in and rising. Tl/e New State was owned by Messrs. C. BoMh & Co., of Wheeling, and commanded by Capt. Dillon. Tbj vessel and cargo are estimated to haft been worth between $25,000 and $30,000, but no information as to insurance could be obtained. The £>gle is owned by Capt. Thomas /Harper.

McClelland Attempted Burglary.—On Friday night s thief entered the house of Capt. R. Calhoun, of Georgetown, and was dis covered, fortunately, before he had com mitted any robbery so far as known. Mrs. Curtis, about one o’clock, took the lamp to go down stairs to get a cup of fresh water for tier little boy, who was thirsty, and proceeded through the hall, sitting rd9m, dining room, into the ad joining pantry, and remained there some two or three minutes, perhaps,getting the cup of water, when she started to return dp stairs. Before coming out of the -pantry she thought she beard some shuf fling in the dining room, bat supposed it was the cat’s, and concluded she would turn it but. On stepping into the dining room, however, she was terribly shocked to see a mao standing & few feet from the ce)la> door, nearly in front of her. After an exclamation of surprise she managed to walk by him and cet up stairs, though very much (lightened. She described him as a shor', thick set person, with broad shoulders, heavy, short, black whiskers, large eyes bps firmly Closed with corners drawn back ; in dark clothes and wearing a cap, she thinks. Captain Calhoun went immediately down stairs, but the thief had fled down through the cellar and escaped. In shutting the cellar door he slummed it so hard that the noise was heard through the house dis tinctly. No clue to the midnight prow ler has been vet discovered.
