thousand dollars.
Forcible Release of Captain Craig.
New Orleans, Dec. 28.— The foroible re
lease of Captain Craig from jail at Seguin,
Texas, has caused considerable excitement
in that neighborhood, inasmuch as it is re
garded as a triumph of military over civil
law. Craig was imprisoned by the order of
Judge Ireland for theft in stealing certain
important papers from the Clerk’s office,sin
the Seguin District, but threatened then
that he would secure the aid of the military
for his release. It is reported tbatihe has
cone so, thus rendering the indictment
found against him by the Grand Jnry, for
the present at least,abortive and of no effect.
The Cretan Insurrection.—So ex
traordinary and desperate an act of he*
roism as that which has just ennobled
the cause of the Cretan insurgents at
the monastery of Ark&dhi should not,
if possible, be allowed to pass down to
posterity with any inadequacy or want
of authentication about its details.
There is no doubt whatever as to the
fact itself, though the absurd figures
with which it was at first announced
from Corfu naturally induced every one
to consign it to the same limbo as that to
which we have long been accustomed to
hand over all telegrams from Corfu,aud
notably the immediately preceding one
claiming a victory with a loss of 3,000
Turks killed and 2,000 taken prisoners.
It is not clear even yet whether the
monastery was blown up by Koroneos
springing his mines before abandon
ing it, or whether the monks fired the
powder magazine after the Turks had
stormed it, and were in complete posses
sion of it; nor is there anything like ap
proximate certainty as to the numbers
on either side who nave perished. To as
certain these points is the province of
history, and we may trust that the great
historian who acts as the Times' corres
pondent at Athens will investigate them
fully, and thus fill up the necessarily
brief description in outline which he
-has just sent us. Indeed, if he does not,
we much fear that no one else will be
able to do it properly, however willing.
For the moment it would be almost im
pertinent minutely to criticise the de
tails of so grand and tragic an act of de
votion; one, however,, more than once
.paralleled, a far smaller scale,
in the old Greek revolution. We love to
associate great deeds of this kind with
the name of a single leading mind; bus
as yet such fails us now.as it nearly doe 3
in modem Greek history. The name of
Yorghaki of Mount Olympus, the
Rumeliote captain who blew himself up
in the Moldavian monastery of Seko, to
which he had cut his way with much
address and bravery in the open field, at
the close of the premature and mis
directed campaign-on the Danube which
preluded the true Greek insurrection of
1821, may yet remain for the representa
tive of Greek patriotic self-devotion, as
—after that of Constantine Kanaris—it
is likewise the only exception to Finlay’s
stern sentence of judgment on the whole
revolution: “No eminent man stands
forward as the representative of the
nation’s virtues.” Up to the present
time, almost without exception, we
have, been apathetic and sparing of
sentiment as regards the Cretanimove
ment.and the Greeks have only to thank
themselves for this result, brought about
by the bewilderment into which their
! preposterous telegrams have thrown us.
An event of this kind is not unlikely to
stir our sympathies to some depth. But
it is not likely to make us intervene,
much less to make France intervene,
when such intervention must Of neces
sity adopt one or the other alternative—
either of expropriating and restoidiig 50,-
000 Mussulmans; orofeither abandoning
them to the mercies of men in hot blood
who would destroy them in a week. If
England or France or both together in
tervene, they will simply be compelled
to occupy the island. On other terms
intervention is but idle talk. — Pall-Mall

. The following proclamation was'promul
gated yesterday afternoons ;
A PROCLAMATION.
By the President of the United States of
; America:
Whereas, Satisfactory evidence has been
receivedby me from His Imperial Majesty,
the Emperor of France, through! the Mar
tinis deMontholon, bis Envoy Extraordi
nary and Minister Plenipotentiary,. that
veßeela belonging to citizens of the United
States entering any port of France or. ef its
dependencies on or after .the first day of
January, 1867, will not be subjected to the
payment of higher duties or tonnage than
are levied upon vessels belonging to citizens
of France entering the said ports.
Now, therefore, I, Andrew Johnson, Pre- I
sident of the United States of America, by
virtue of the authority vested in me by an
i act of Congress of the 7th day of' January,
1824, entitled an act concerning discriminat
ing duties of tonnage and import, and by
an act in addition thereto of the 29th day of
May, 1828, do hereby declare and proclaim,
that on and after thesaid Ist of January,
1867, so long as vessels of the United- States
aUpU be admitted to French ports on the
terms aforesaid, French vessels entering
ports of the United States will be subject to
I no higher rates .'of. duty, oh tonnage than
are levied hpon vessels of the United States
1 in the ports thereof
I In testimony whereof, I have hereunto set
my hand and caused the seal of the United
1 States to be affixed. Done at the city of
Washington, this twenty-eighth day of De-
I cember, in the year of our Lord one fhou-
I sand eight hundred and sixty-six, and of
the Independence of the United States the
ninety-first. Andrew Johnson.
I By the President: ■
Wm. H. Seward, Secretary of State.
A Plaee ; for Hunter*.
The Nashville Press and Times tells
the following: >
Persons recently from Beel Foot Lake,
in Obion county, West Tennessee, in
form us that the assemblage of water
fowls at that place is truly marvelous.
Several years ago a large and well tim
bered region, some seven miles ’ long,
suddenly sank during an earthquake,
and the basin immediately filled up with
water, forming the present Beel Foot
Lake. Almost every species of aquatic
bird, great and small, from the tiniest
plover to the stately swan, now frequent
the spot. Canvas back ducks dance on
i its surface like great fleets of Lilluptian
vessels,.wild geese sound their trumpet
calls on all sides, and tall cranes wade
lazily about in regiments in search of
food. Bronts, cormorants, teals, mal
lards, di-dappers, and snipes darken the
air at times with the sweep ef. their
many colored wings. Not unfrequently
a magnificent swan, robed in plumes of
I spotless purity, the v.ery poetry of the
I wave, floats by the delighted sportsman,
and too olten falls the victim of his
I fowling piece, The traffic in these birds
I is becoming quite an item, and large
I numbers of them are shipped to Mem-
I phis. There is probably not a more
attractive spot for fisherman or hunts-
I man in the whole country.
The Commissioner of the General Land
Office has received returns from the local
office at lonia, Michigan, for November,
1866, which show that 5,427 acres have been
sold for cash, during that month .amounting
to $14,923.
