Sales of New York Merchants.
The Ledger's New York corresponden
says:
"It is a matter of mercantile curiosity and
interest to notice the amounts of sales the
last ten months by some of our largest
houses, as taken from the official record,
and reported in the elaily papers. At the
bead of the list in the Fourth District, is H.
B. Claflin & Co., whose sales are sworn to as
being $42,506,713; next on the list is A. T.
Stem art (wholesale exclusively), $39,391,683,
which is apart from a large package busi
ness dole by them in Philadelphia,amount
ing to several millions, on which they pay
the Government tax there; also a large retail
business of many millions on Broadway
and Tenth street, which in the aggregate
make their entire sales much the largest by
many millions of any dry goods house in
the country; next on the list is Anthony
Hall, $10,373,000; George A. Wicks, $10,0Q9,-
000. In the Fourth. District there are some
twelve houses whose sales. were from five to
eight millions, and twelve from three to four
millions each, and of the list of a hundred
names, only three had sales of less than a
million."
COIALTS.
QUARTER SESSIOES.—Judge Allison.—To
day is devoted to desertion cases. Before
commencing the hearing in the several
cases, the judge announced that after con
sultation with his colleagues it had been de
termined hereafter to admit evidence of the
infidelity on the part of the wife as a de
fenee.
WHAT_THE SOUTH HAS LOST.—Matthew
F. Maury has written a three-column letter
to the London Morning Herald, in which he
gives the following estimate of the losses of
the South, caused by the war:
1 estimate the amount of the pecuniary
losses incurred by the people of the Southern
Confederacy, in their late attempt at inde
pendence, to be not less than $7,000,000,000
as follows :
By emancipation, . . . $3,000,000,000
Expenses of the war, . 2,000,000,000
Destruction of private property,l,ooo,ooo,ooo
Additional taxation imposed
by the victor for payment of
Federal war debt, say $lO,
006,000 per annum, equal to
10 per cent. interes ton . . 1,000,000,000
---
Total, . . . . $7,000,000,000
This loss falls up less than eight millions
of whites, who have, moreover, in addition,
to contribute largely towards the support of
the four millions of blacks who have been
suddenly turned loose among them, and
who, for the present, at least, are incapable
of caring for themselves. This 7,000,000,000
of money was the accumulated wealth of
centuries; it constituted nearly the whole
industrial plant and capital of the South.
WHAT JOSEPH E. JOHNSON SAYS.—Gen.
Joseph E. Johnston, in a letter in which he
consents to become a candidate for the posi
tion of President of the Mobile and Ohio
Railroad, says : "The position, to me, would
be the most agreeable one I could think of.
No position would suit me better than the
Presidency of a respectable railroad compa
ny, and I should prefer the Mobile and Ohio
Railroad to any other. The majority of the
troops commanded by me during the war
were from the Gulf States, and my best and
warmest friends reside there. I have astrong
desire to pass my remaining days in the Gulf.
States in the midst of those who ha- shown
themselves to be my .best and most steadfast
friends." -

WEST FHIIuLDBLPHIA.—The last twenty
four hours have changed the appearance of
things, even more and more. All the latest
of the trees are now exhibiting the pre
sence of the anxiously waited-for spring.
Yesterday, a horse chestnut, in front of our
window, was just beginning to bud; this
morning, the whole tree is green with the
young growth of its beautiful leav e are, wi th for the
leaves of this favorite shade tree h
the single exception of the Allanthus—
Parad f sea (Tree of Heaven), the most cha
racteristic among all our foliages. The lat
ter, this morning. only shows signs
of vitality. When it attains
its season of florescence, we
shall have something to say, in reference
to its presence, however, ornamental in
crowded situations its deleterious, somni
ferous and oppressive character, and what
evil results have always arisen from its
cultivation. Its thorough - eradication would
be a positive blessing. Blossoming, as it
does, when we are just opening our win
dows, to inhale the aromas of the early ad
vents of Spring, its oppressive, heavy, al
most leaden breath, sickens us where we
sit. There are many other such trees, as
well as plants, that our community should
be guarded against at any time, but the
more so when the Asiatic cholera threatens
us with a fearful visitation. Sufficient,
just now, on this subject.
Everywhere "grass is springing, birds are
singing,' in this, our peculiar section of
report—the meadows, never so cute, are
alive with young grasses the frogs
are: croaking, and if things go. on
as they promise, w which has not oce shall have lilacs in
bloom on May Day,occurred
for many years.
The police reports at the Station House
were small. Only two unfortunates falling
into the hands of the law. One,
a man
named :Joseph Lykes, was sent to the In
sane Asylum (Almshouse), and another,
Joseph Riley,. charged with drunkenness,
was discharged.
The .Almshouse exhibited 17 admissions,
2 births, 2 deaths, 28 discharges, 4 elope
ments, while 2 were "bound out" from the
Children's Asylum. Census, 3.088; last year,
2 ,6l6—increase, 472.
SLIGHT Etaks.—This morning about 7
o'clock, a bed in a house at Ella and Amber
streets was burned. The flames were
caused by children playing with matches.
An alarm of fire was caused about nine
o'clock, this morning, by the burning of
some shavings and rubbish in the cellar of
a house at Dilwyn and Callowhill streets.
Damage trifling.
Sinuous FALL. List evening, about
half-past eight o'clock, an old lady named
Abby Brown, 65 years of age, fell from the
second-story window of a house No. 503
South Juniper street. Her arm, leg, and
two ribs were broken, and her skull was
fractured. The inmates of the house were
absent at the time. The injured woman
was conveyed to the hospital.
MnA DOG KILLED.—A dog supposed to
have been mad was killed by Officer Reeder
yesterday afternoon in a house at Sixth and
Vine streets, where the animal had taken
refuge.
FIRE HORSE KILLED.—One of the horses
belonging to the Hope Hose Company fell
last evening during an alarm of fire, and
was so badly injured that he had to be killed.

SINGULAR RAILROAD ACCIDENT.—We
have just learned , the particulars of a mos
singular accident which occurred at Grape
vine, Westmoreland county, on tne Penn
sylvania Railroad, on Tuesday, resulting in
the instant death of Daniel Gressman. Mr.
Gressman was riding a very spirited horse.
along the public road, which at this point
runs parallel with'the railroad, and is in
tersected by another road, crossing the track
almost at right angles. The Ballast train
was proceeding westward, when the horse
became frightened and ran away. The train
had not cleared the cross road when the ex
cited animal reached that point, and ran
full speed against the train,bounding upon a
truck car about the middle of the train, and
attempting to jump over to the opposite
side, Mr. Gressman was thrown back on the.
south track and fractured hie skull and
cause instant death. The deceased was
about seventryears of age, and resided near
the scene of the accident, which was wit
nessed by one of his daughters. Strange to
say, the horse was not killed, allhoug,h it
was considerably injured. It was a very
line animal, valued at about four hundred
dollars.—Pittsburgh Chronicle.
STEAMBOAT EXPLOSION.—The Wilming
ton (N. C.) Despatch, of the 14th, says:
About 1 o'clock yesterday the tug Alpha,
No. 2, while endeavoring to raise the trans
port Thorn, which had been sunk near the
"dram tree," about three and a half mile
below the city, was blown to atoms by the
explosion of one of her boilers, and Harry
Crosby, a colored engineer, was instantly
killed, and James Harris (colored),fireman,
mortally injured. When the accident oc
curred, James Orrell, of Wilmington;
Charles, Bally, of Maine, John Williams,of
Newburyport, Mass.; John Spates, of Bal
timore, Md., and Captain Jere. Wagner, of
Troy, N. Y., officers and white seamen of
the Alpha, were at dinner below, and all
received slight injuries from the explosion.
Luckilyfor those who survived the accident,
the Alpha No. 1, a consort of the unfortu
nate boat, was but a little way off, and
went immediately to the assistance of the
sufferers, and, taking them on board,
steamed for the city, where they (the
wounded) received the medical attention
which their injuries demanded.
A HUGE ROOF.—An immense work is at
present under wav at the entrance of the
Paris terminus of the Western Railway, in
the Rue St. Lazare. It is an iron roof con
structed over the thirty-one lines of rails
which start from that point, and which was
formerly called-the Place de l'Europe,under
which tne trains passed throngh two stone
tunnels. The tunnels have been removed
and a road will be constructed over the iron
roof,

WASSDROTON, April 20.—There is good
reason to believe that the Reconstruction
Committee have at last reached a proposi
tion in the shape of a Constitutional Amend
went, which will harmonize the existing
difficulties between the President and Con
gress, in regard to the plan for the admis
sion of Representatives from the Southern
States. It has been submitted to the Presi
dent, and it is said he approves. It will be
considered in committee to-morrow.
The Senate Military Committee to-day
passed upon a large number of military
nominations.
The Brevet promotions in the Regular
Army, recommended by the board recently
in session at St. Louis, are hung up in the
War Department, notwithstanding they
have been repeatedly called for by Con
gress.
The House Judiciary Committee, who
are investigating Jeff Davis's connection
with the Conspiracy Plot, have just dis
covered additional evidence which will be
very damaging to Jeff
Terrible Exploition.
NEW Yonr., April 20.—The steamship
Arizona, from Aspinwall, has arrived. She
brings $& 0 4:14,000 in specie.
A terrible disaster occurred at Aspinwall,
on the 3d inst. There was a fearful explo
sion on board the steamship European, de
stroying the ship and four hundred feet of
her wharf. The cause of the explosion is
supposed to be from nitro-glycerine on
board. About fifty persons were kilted,
among them the captain and officers of
the ship.

NEw Yonx, April 20th.—Advioes by the
steamer Arizona, from Aspinwall, says the
news from the Southern Coast, gives little
hope of a speedy settlement of the Peruvian,

There is some talk of bombarding 'Valpa

No attempt has been made by the
Spaniards to take possession of the Chinehad

There is no later news from Central Ame

CONGRESS -FIRST SESSION
Wssurserrorr t April 20.
HousE.—The first business in order to
day, being Friday, was the call Of Commit
tees for reports of a private nature.
On a report by Mr. Rollins (N. 11.) from
the Committee on Accounts, an additional
clerk wastalowed to the Sergeant -at-Arms
of the House, and the pay of a couple of la
borers in creased.
Mr. Ward (N. Y.), from the Committee on
Claims, reported a bill giving to Ishmael
Day, of Baltimore county, Maryland, an
annuity of $421 50, as a recognition of his
heroism in defending the National flag from
Gilmor's rebel raiders on the 12th of .Tuly.•
1864, and for his loss of property, on that m
-01131011.
According to the report, which' was read,
Day is a patriarchical patriot, seventy-four
years of age, and when two of Gilmor's
raiders attempted to haul down the National
flag over his dwelling, he shot one of them
dead and put the other to flight. The con
sequence was that his
_property was de
stroyed by a larger party of rebels.
Mr. Ward made an appeal to the House
in support of the bill. _
Mr. Upton (Mich.) wanted to, know on
what principle of law the bill could be sus
tained?
Mr. Ward replied—Oh, it is on the great
principles that we sustain every man who
sustains the flag in that way.
Several members—Good ! you I are-right.
Mr. Delano (Ohio), Chairman of the com
mittee, explained the question. He said
the.rule of the committee was to reject all
claiins for damages, the result of the ravages
of war; Ishmael Day was a loser to the
amount of $7,000 or $8,000; but the com
mittee felt it could do nothing to compen
sate for that loss.
Still the circumstances were se peculiar,
the act so noble, that the Committee agreed
to submit to the House the question of giv
ing the old man, for the remaining few years
of his life, in the last of which he exhibited
this high degree of gallantry and patriot
ism, a smallpension. If $4OO a year was
too much the House might reduce it.
Mr. Washburne (Ill.)—We understood,
from the reading of the report, that the bill
was put upon the ground of loss of pro
perty.
Mr Delano said he knew that the ques
tion had not been understood, and therefore
he had made the explanation.
The question on the passage of the bill
was taken by yeas and - nays, and resulted
In a vote of 106 yeas to 13 nays. So the bill
was passed.
