FoREZON Oreicr, September leth, 1867.—Sir— The ,Ifinister of the United States.called upon Me to-day, and communicated to mop despatch, of wkich, however, hey. was not authorized to give me 6 copy, from Mr. Seward, dated the 12c of August,_ reply to my despatch to yon of the 24th of May,respectlng the mutual claims of the two countries on each other, arising but of the late civil war. "By this despatch Mr. Adams is authorized to assure me that Mr. Seward did not understand my previous offer of arbitration to apply only to claims arising out of the depredations of the Ala bama, to the exclusion:. of those• arming out of the depredations of vessels .of the like character," but, on the contrary,,underetood the offer to ap ply equally to all such claims. - "The Preeident, Mr. Seward says, considers the terms of the offer of the British government to go to arbitration upon the question whether. in the matters connected with all those vessels out of whose depredations the claims of Ameri can citizens have arisen, the course pursued by the British government and those who acted upon . Its authority was such as would involve a moral responsibility to make good, either in 'whole or in part, the losses of American citizens, to be at once comprehensive and 'sufficiently precise to include ad the claims of American citizens for depredations, on their, commerce during the late rebellion, which have been the subject of com plaint on the part of, the government of :the United States. • • • "But Mr, Seward goes on to say that the goir ernment of the United States would deem itself at liberty to Insist before the arbiter that the ac tual proceedings and relations of the British gov ernment, its officers, - agents .and subjects, towards the'United States, in regard to the rebel lion and the rebels, as they occurred during that rebellion,• are among thp matters which' are Con nected with the vessels whose depredations are complained of, just as- in the case, of general claims, alltided to inmy despatch, the actual pro - - ceedings'arid'relations of llor Maeaty's govern ment, its officers, agents, and sub j ects, in regard to the United States in regard to the rebellion and the rebels,. are necesaarilY connected with the transactions out of which those general claims arose. "Mr. Seward further observes that my plan seenis to be to constitute two descriptions of tri bunals—one an arbiter to determine the question of the moral responsibility of the British govern ment in regard to the vessels of the Alabania class; and the other a mixed commission to 'ad judicate the so-called general claims of both sides; and a 'contingent reference to the same or other mixed commissions to ascertain and determine the amount of damages for indemnity to be awarded in the cases examined by the first tri bunal in the event of a decision of moral respon sibility in favor of the United States. But - Mr. Seward says that the government of the United States do not consider any dis tinction as to the principle between the two tribunals to be necessary, and that in every case they agree only to unrestricted arbitration. It may be eonvenient, indeed, that the claims should be.distributed betsveen the two tribunals, both of which, however, the government of the United States consider should proceed upon the same principle, and be clothed with the same powers. "Mr. Seward concludes his despatch by saying that the'PreSident will be gratified if the ei:plan adorn contained in it should conduce to' the re moval of the difficulties which have heretofore prevented the two governments from coming to an amicable and friendly understanding and ar rangement. "I reserve for a future occasion any observa tions that .I may have to offer on Mr. Seward's despatch. &c„ "No. 2. • -• "iiollll STANLEY To "FOREIGN OFFICE, Nov. 16,,18G7.-Sir: In my despatch to Sir F. Bruce of the 10th of Septem ber, I confined myself to a mere statement of the substance of a despatch from Mr. Seward which Mr. Admits had communicated to me in reply to my despatch of the 24th of May,, respecting the claims arising on either side out of the events of the late civil war in the United States. "Her Majesty's Government having since the date of my despatch, fully considered the terms of Mr. Seward's despatch, I will no longer delay aequainthig you, or communication to that minister, with the impression Which it has made upon "Harldajesty's , government President of the United Sitates eonsid e er t s o ac t : terms used in my despatch with refere_ne pre _ eo-calleAl Alsisss.ssissiy precise to include all the claims of American citizens for depredations uponlheir Commeree during the late rebellion, -which have been th e subject of complaint upon the pert of the government of the United States; those terms being, to quote the precise words of my dettfiatele of .the 24th of May, applicable to this dads of claims, and;which, in substance, re peats-these rased by me in my despatch of the ffi,h of March, that the question on which Great Britain- •wats-seadr to go to arbitration was, 'wheffieeln the matters, connected with the vas, sels ontof whose: depredations the claims of American citizens have arisen the course pur sued ,by the British government and by those who nettid'uPon its authority was such as would involve ri ; 'morel 'responsibility on the part of the British' government to make good, either is whole or in part, the losses of American citizens.' "In the same and in the previous despatches it will be found that, while agreeing to this limited reference as regards the so-called Alabama claims, I have repeatedly stated that her Majesty's gcliv eminent could not consent to refer to a foreign vowerlodeterimine whether the policy of her MajesWszoventment in recognizing the Confed erate States as belligerents 7 was or was not suit able to the circumstances of the time when the recognition took place. Alter referring, however, to the terms of my despatch of the 24th of May, Mr. Seward goes on to say, that in the view taken by the ; United States govern ment, that goVernment .would deem itself at liberty to insist before the arbiter that the actual proceedings and relations of the British govera meat, its officers, agenta, and, subjects towards the United States in regard to the .rebellion and the rebels as they occurred during that rebellion are among the matters which are ecffineeted with the vessels whose depredatiomi are "complained of; just as, in the case of the general claims „alluded to by me the actual proceedings and relations of her Majesty's government,ita officers, agents and subjects in regard to the United States, in regard to the rebellion and the rebels., are necessarily connected with the transactions out of which those general claims arise. • - "The language thus used by Mr. Seward ap pears to her Majesty's government to be open to , the construction that it is the desire of the United States government that any tribunal to be agreed upon' in dealing either with the so-called Ala bama claims or with the 'general claims' might enter into the question whether the act of policy of her Majesty's government in recognizing the Confederate States as a belligerent power was, or was not sultabloto the circumstances of the time when , the recognition was made—a construction which, after the distinct and repeated avowal of her Majesty's government that they could not zoneent to a reference of such a question, her Majesty's, government can hardly suppose that it was intended by Mr. Seward that the passage fu his despatch sliould bear. "But to prevent any mleapprehensionson . this subject, her• Majesty's government think it neces sary distinctly to say, both as regards the bu t:ailed Alabama claims brought forward by the citizens of the United States and as regards the general claims, that 'they cannot depart directly orindirectly, from their refusal to 'refer to a foreign power to determine whether the palidy of recognizing the Confederate States as a belli gerent power was or was not suitable to' the • circumstances of the time when the negotiation was made.' "As regards the so-called Alabama claims, the 'only point which her Majesty's government can consent• to refer to the decision of an arbiter is the question of the Moral responsibility of her Majesty'4 government, , on the assumption that an actual state of war existed between the goy ernmaut of the United States and the Confede rate Stateseand - on - that - msumptlon it would be for the arbiter to determine whether there had bttn any such failure on the part of the British government as a neutral in the observance, legally or morally, of any duties or relations towards the government of the United SUILCE3 as could tx deemed to involve a moral respond , bilitY on the tiart of the British governinent yo snake geed the losses of Liattencan citizens, cloned bY The Alabama and other vessels of the sainte. • arts the general chapati, the gnestionof 4 mew ponsibility 'on the part of her Kity's OvernMett dolt not,' and cannot, come in to'dir;- 'We SeWSntrightly trappoeeff that her Ma- jeiity's governnient contemplated two tribunals for the adjudication, one, of the Alabarna the other of the general claima—the Ainc being, in the first instance, at elk events, the tribunal. of anorbiter, who would be called upon to pro nounce on the principles of the .morid respOn sibility of the British government, and on the nature of ,whose decision would depend the question of the appointment of a mixed cal:n -u:llEocm for the examination in detail of• the several claims of citizens in the. United States to which that decision applied—namely, those arising out of the depredations of the Alabama and other similar vessels, and the adjudication of the sums payable in each case; the Other, in its commencement and to its close, a purely mixed commission for the examination of the general claims of the subjects and citizens of bOth countries arising out of the war, and the adjudication of the sums payable by either country in each case. "The distinction between the two classes of claims is clear—the one that may neyer come be foraa mixed oommission, and, therefore, may not require the assistance of an arbiter to decide differences of detail arising.between the commis sioners; the other, though originally brought be fore a mixed commission, may pessibly require the intervention of an arbiter in case of a differ ence of opinion among the members of the com mission Which could not be otherwise reconciled. and for which case provision would be made in the ordinary way in the convention for the set tlement of the mixed claims by the insertion of articles in regard to the selection of an arbiter. "The functions of such an arbiter, as *ell as of an arbiter for a like purpose in the other mixed commission, for which provision would have to be made to meet the contingency of the sd-called Alabama claims coming eventually under the cog nizance of a mixed commission, would have clothing:in COMMOiI with the functions of the arbiter to whom the question of principle in volved in the last-mentioned class 'of claims would be referred. "IlerMajesty's government cannot 'but appre hend that, if Mr. Seward really requires unre stricted arbitration as applicable to both classes of claims ' and that the tribunal in both classes of Cases should proceed upon the same principles and be clothed with thastime powers, he-has not fully considered the wide and inevitable distinc tion which exists between the classes; and, in di recting you to submit to the consideration of Mt. Seward the explanations and' observations con fain ed in this despatch, I have to instruct you • to express the earnest hope of her Majesty's government that the government of the United Slates will, on further , reflection, accept without hesitation the proposal made in my despatches to Sir F. Bruce of theft of March and of the 24th of. May, both of this year—namely, 'limited reference to arbi tration in regard to the so-called Alabama claims,' and 'adjudicatiOn by means of a mixed commis sion of general-claims.' "You will furriii-li Mr. Seward with a copy of this despatch. I am, &c., STANLEY." Arrearages of Tonnage Tax. A special Harrisburg despatch to the Inquirer says:A special court for the hearing of State Cases commenced this morning before Judge Pearson. Attorney. General Brewster and Deputy Attorney-General Nowlin are in attendance. A number of attorneys from a distance are here. Nearly all the cases arc proscsutions of corpora tions throughout the State for arrears of tax on tonnage due the Commonwealth. ' In the case of the Lackawanna and Blooms burg Railroad Company, the jury found a ver dict of two thousand dive hundred and eighty dollars and eleven cents, An favor of the Com monwealth; Erie Railroad Conipany, five dollars and fifteen: cents, and in a second case, involving tonnage in transitu. from a point outside the State, to a point also outside the State, the jury returned a verdict for defendant; Cleveland and Pittsburgh Railroad Company, two hundred and eighty-one dollars , and eleven cents, for Com monwealth; Baltimore Coal Company, verdict to-morrow; ..lonongahela Navigation Company, verdict to-morrow. The cases were argued at groat length, and in every instance a verdict was rendered only on tonnage taken up and delivered , in the State. The court ruled that companies were' liable for all local tonnage agreeably to their charters, but several most important points, involving the fa mous New jersey question of Inter-State Com merce, were reserved for future decision.l Attorney-General Brewster yields the point that freight in transit through the State between points otttaide the State lines is not' taxable; but he conten . ds that all tonnage taken up at a point in the State, although delivered outside the State, is liable for taxes. This point is re - served, but .will probably be decided against the Commonwealth, agreeably to several of MiplAieisVatNennzfire'esbtpntin t 76 trio' "ruitn oi'the court, and carry the question to the Su preme Court.' An interesting question of fact is involved in the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad , case. This road commences in the State, but most of the tonnage which is dumped at , Richmond, at the eastern line of the State, is transported thence to its destination outside the State. The ques tion is whether this freight is to be regarded as in transit out of the State, or whether it is merely local freight bound for Richmond? The Monongahela Navigation case involves transportation from a point in the State through several other States. STANLEY." The Great Cyr:l.one in Bengal, A Calcutta telegram of November 9 sa,ys: "On the night of Friday, the let inst., a cyclone raged in Bengal, extending, according to present in formation, from the Bay northward . to Berazum, westward ,to Midnapore and Burdwan , eastward to Burnsaul and Dacca. ' The rice crops throughout the tract visited by the cyclone aregreatly injured. In many places it Is estimated that not one-fourth will be slaved. Many buildings hav'e been destroyed, as also boats on the inland rivers' laden with jute and grain. Large quantities of the growing jute have also been destroyed. Great damage has been done at Port Canning. A storm.wave, nearly six feet high, carried 'away . a portion of the river bank jetties; the railway is much Injured and the station de stroyed. Qt Calentta the cyclone lasted neatly, eight hours.-` It is 'estimated that it has done more damage to, the city than the great cyclone of Oc tober, 1881. In the city suburbs more than 1,000 lives have teen ascertained to have been lost, and 480,060 native huts destroyed.. Tugs and other vessels ,have been wrecked at Bangor. S'everal VeSSele Are missing, and nume rous ships arereturning dbiabled. More than six hundred native boats have been destroyed. The steam transport Euphrates has put In at Calcutta to refit, greAly injured . At Burdwan much distress has been occasioned amoug the native population.

A few days ago, when we had scarcely gotten over the. effects of the hurricane and earthquakes yellow fever appeared in the American lieut. Among the very severe .cases was that of Admiral:Palmer, who, at the close of a long career on this Station, and, whilst in daily communication bminess conntcted' with the transfer.of these island to ,the United I,Sttiles , was , taken with the, disease. For several days days his phy rAcians (both from the ship and ashore) were uncertain as to the - termination,. but I am now happy). to infortit - you that 'this morning—the sixth day—he stems brighter and on the read to a rapid recovery.

Ho entreated the Vicar of Jesus Christ to absolve him; offered his lite in ex piation of his faults; expressed his regret that he had not followed the counsels of Tins IX., who had warned him in advance of the snares which surrounded him, and closed by imploring the benediction in articulo mortis; It appears that the Pope, in speaking of this letter, alluded to inter—alia docamenta. Some journals inferred from this that the Pope pOs sessed a legacy of most impOrtallooolllhents on Mexico and Maximilian, which he had received from the Princess Carlotta, whose.journey to 'tome was taken for the purpose of depositing theta in the hands of His Holiness. This is the story that has • become a piece of gossip for the European newspapers. We repro uuce it without comment. , The Condition of Texas. • The Washington correspondent of the Press telegraphs: An intelligent Pennsylvanian,who resided eight years in Texas before the rebellion, who voted against secession, and left the State for his old home in 1863 to save his life, and returned to Texas after the war, has been in Washington for several days, to obtain the restoration, of his property, taken from him by force t hy the rebels since Andrew Johnson revived alike their hopes and their malignities. He gives a fearful account of the state of society 'in Texas. Acting for a shortlime as one of the registers under the Freedmen's Bureau, with two other Unionists, the latter were shot down in. cold blood, and he only escaped by being out of range of the rebel rifles; but ho saw his coMpanions fall. He says that not a rebel has been punished for murder, and of course not for treason, while a list of over twenty-two hundred murderecc Union men is on file at Austin. When Governor Hamilton was sent out there after the surrender of Lee, the whole *rebel population were not only'submissive, but ready to 'field everything to save their property and lives; and when the Governor spoke, to them, his strongest words were,accepted with favor. Now all has changed. Hardly a day passes without some rebel outrage, and. it is always permitted to go tinpunished. Our informant, who left for Texas yesterday, fears that General - Hancock's order restoring the civil courts oLouisiana may bo extended to Texas, in which disc, he says, all his hopes of recovering his property are gone. The gentleman from whom we get this informa tion is well.known in Lancaster county, Penn sylvania, where his relatives occupy a high social position. A Jerseyniati Outwitted. A nutting trick was performed in Newark on Friday last. A ,stranger who pretended to be tipsy slipped on the step in front of a machinery • wareroom near Market street depot, and broke a large plate glass window. The proprietors demanded payment; but the man pretended that he had no money. One of the partners then proposed that the culprit should be searched. This was done, and the owner of the window was rewarded by find ing a one-hundred-dollar bill in his pocket. He immediately changed the bill, and after taking out $l2 for damages, handed the ine briate $BB. To this the ranger made no objection, but staggered off, and was soon lost to sight. In a short time the machinists had occasion to make a deposit,.and the one hundred-dollar bill was sent to bank. It was _returned as a counterfeit. The stranger has not been seen since, and if arrested he could not be prosecuted, as he did not attempt to pass the bill. This is a new "dodge." iLtArritt N ONE PRICE. ONLY.

The proceedings in the case of A. M. D. C. Laslt, and others, were ' submitted to the House to-day, in Aeandance with a resolution calling for information. Genera l Sheridan, it appears, convened a military commission in June lant to try Luek , of Louisiana; who web Accused of murder, saying his reason for or dering such a commission was that, the civil authori ties lied stated that it was Impossible for thorn to tat charge of the accused. Lusk was duly on the charge of murdering Wilson Calicoat, a freed. man, by shooting him with a pistol. ' Ile Was •found guilty, and sentenced to he hung. General Sheridan approved the sentence and forwarded the record for the action of the President. Judge Advocate Gen ern] Holt, in reviewing the case, says , the dutliority for General Sheridan'e action in the prenliset was found In the third section M. the'recomstruction act, and in conclusion remarks; , . , It le believed that no record of ttuilt and crime hits been examined by this Bureau callttig more loudly for the rigid enforcement of the extreme penalty of the law than this. every moment of the ,three boars during width the Steamer was in the possession of this desperado, seems to have been employed - in acts of cruelty and terror. culminating at last in the pitiless shooting of an unoffendlng boy, whom he had never seen before, and whose sole offense seems talave beeothat the color of his skin was a shade darker than that of his assassin. RIB respectfully advised that the prisoner be executed. The following endorsement appears on the back a Judge Boles report: The prisoner, the record of whose trial is within, bad every opportunity he desired to defend himself. Ma crime is a most fearful.' brntal one, and he ,la without any excuse, for its commission. It is the first trial for murder by a Alltary commission under the reconstruction act, and the sentence should be car ried into effect,. Respectfully submitted to the Presi dent. (Signed) U. S. GRANT. Secretary of War ad interim Among the papers is a letter from the counsel of the accused, written to the lion. Edmund Cooper, calling attention to the case. He says his de fense, owing to the fact that it was impossible to ob tain witnesses, they being in a remote part of the State, was purely technical, and as he had the benefit of the Attorney•Ceneral's opinion which had just been made known, he felt every confidence in his position, and that any court of law would have sustained the ex ceptions, be was still confident. He aiso•felt satisfied that If the President, - through Mr. Cooper, should have his attention properly called to the bill of excep Cons, he would set aside the trial. The President, in submitting all the papers in the case, says that no action in the case has yet been taken by him. „ SUPREME 001511 T.

XLth CONGRESS,-SECOND SESSION. CONCLOSION OF I'ESTEADAY'S PROCFvT)DiGS Senate. On motion of Mr. SHERMAN, of Ohio, the Senate then took np the bill to exempt raw cotton, grown after 1867, from taxation. Mr. hionanx, of Vermont, moved to amend by pro viding that after the Ist ofApril,' tti6B, all cotton no ported from foreign countries shall be exempted from duty. He said this amendment should be incorporated. The chairman of the committee (Mr. Sherman) and the Senator from . Massachusetts (Mr. Wilson), he be lieved, bad promised that the tax ehould be repealed, and the idea seemed to havegenerally gone forth. He, therefore, did not expect to be able to retard the re peal. Ho claimed that there was as much necessity for the repeal of taxes North, East and West and otitti. It was impossible for other countries to com pete with the United States in the production of-cot ton. The amount contributed by the East Indies had - fallen off very rapidly during the last year, while the amount exported from the United States had largely increased. Mr. Elmulnurr was of opinion thai this tax could not longer be retained without injury to the cOnntry. Ile quoted the.jatest prices to which he said cotton had Wien. Although the tax had last year been greatly reduced, it still:amounted to about twenty-flue per cent. of the value, He pointed out the fallacy of the claim that cotton: was king, as advanced by the , south at the outbreak of the war, and referred to the tact that the whole course of cotton production had been changed during the war. If this tax were not re moved American cotton would never regain its former .advantageous position. Be read letters from several gentlerrien in the South in support of his views.- The 'United Status entered into the competition under a •different state of affairs, in view of the 'clanged cir cumstances of labor. • ; . Mr. FOXIMAY, of Kansas, thought the argument of 'Mr. Morrill proved too much if it proved anything, namely: that because no excess' of cotton was to be Seared from other countries, therefore we should not -atimulate our own production. That formed a reason . for increasing it. Mr. FESBKNDIOT thought this matter should be con aidered when the whole subject of taxation was be fore them. Ife did not • see why the' tax should be re moved at once. Be held with a very distinguished statesman that at the end of all rebellion there should be clemency, , , but be was not In favor of letempting a whole section from the support of the government. He deprecated this hasty action without due consid .cration. Mr. .Mortrox; of Indiana, gave notice that at the proper time he should move an amendment to tax all cotton grown after 18(17 one cent. per pocind. lie thought the precept rate onerous, but before remov .lng the entire tax bf the South they should consider what could be'dono for the relief of the whole nation. Mr. Wiison, of Massachusetts, advocated the bill at 3ength,,cittiming that the tax on cotton wee Imposed •by Congress in the: belief that the price would' con tinue at a high rate, and that since it had fallen so low the tax should be m - wed. He read letters from the 'South asserting that the industry of the South will be - seined if the tax is not repealed. Mr. Wimmus gave noticethat he would move to zimeielby providing that no cotton remaining unsold shall be taxed; also, that no tax on cotton heretofore ollected.ehallirr be refunded.' He said It win' our xnanifestpolicy o legislate for the material benefit of the South. The people who had been engaged in the cultivation of cotton invested their capital, expectinw to realize a large profit. Ent after paying high for vages and supplies, cotton 'had fallen onedtalf, and Mow would not pay the cost of production, Mr' FRELINOMTYSEN, of Now. Jersey said he had -xeceivekletters-from - the - South, - and -- irourh . hrown: state, ethicurring in the views of the Chairman of the Yinance Committee ( dlr. Sherman). A tax on 'cotton here was a premium on cotton in India. Cotton was mold forpurposea of exportation. This tax of a quartet. of the value affects the black as well as the white, the West and East as well as the' South, because it Maly aided the cotton grower from his obligations;' 'The'objection to the auspenilimi of the tax was 'the uncertainty to which it gave rise. It would take away the capital required for the next' crops: He doubted whether any conclusion could be drawn from statistics of cotton for four and,five years back, in the uneasy .istate of the markets duringthat time. bunugu, of Vermont, 00; the A;19; ogalut and argued that If the - crop were unduly stlinulated the .exporter.would -have to pay theta; while oihar• wise the Importer paid it, instancing coffee awl other articles as some upon which the unporter paid the tat. Mr. Jonnsort. of Maryland, after referring to the, past action of Congress upon this subject, said he had believed at first that the tax was unconstitutional, MI hiding to the Probibition in the COnstltuttott from Mats ing imports; Since the war, With the immense bturdens it entailed, it was necessary to consider how to make those burdens as light as possible. The cotton tax Was ruinous, The universal testimony was that cot ton could notte grown tinder .euch tax, : : under the present pyriteni of piild labor. 't Ile thought it wotild be best to remove the tax al together. He warmly seconded the desire of Mr. Frelinghuysen, to see the South reinstated in every thing except slavery. Thepshould not impose upon one portion of human inlieS 'a tar not laid upon any other. The various votes here and in the other House proved that the tax shmild be repealed. He had moved to amend by including the crop of 1t67 in the provisions of the bill. Many opposed this, that would not object to remov ing the tax trim 'cotton In the hands of producer& and he would modify his amendment accordingly. One por tion of the amendment offered by Mr. Williams had no practiCal effect, in jeis opinion. • the tax was unconstitutional, they could not Prevent claims from being paid.

The House went into Committee of the Whole on the State of the Union Mr. BROVAAJJ, of PelmaYl• wads, in the, chair, and Proceeded to consider the de ficiency appropriation hill. DErun:rear BILL. The bill appropriates $llB, glft, including the follow. log items: For stationery for, the House. $15,000; furniture repairs and packing bOxes, $20,000; folding documents. including materials, #50,000; newspapers, $14500. To the latter clause is appended a promise that hereafter no member of either Rouse shall be allowed or paid for newspapers and stationery for any one year more than $125, in money or its value. Mr. Efttoons called the attention of the Committee especially to the item of $50,500 for deficiency in fold ing documents, and remarked that the yearly expend itaree of Congress amount to $3,000,000, or one fourth the entire national expenditure under Adams* administration., which had been ejected from power mainly for ext.raganc& ''"°°':,. , Mr. "Wasununsis, of Illinois, was glad to see the gentleman from New York show any regard for economy; but if that gentleman had supported him (Mr. Washburne) 'last week' in his opposition to a railroad land grant bill for Michigan, several hun dyed thousand acres of the public domain, would have been saved from the rapacious land jobbers. Mr. filmes, of New York, said he was not one of those men who, after their own States were gorged with public plunder, were always watching to prevent ally 01 the younger and poorer States from getting anything. [Laughter.] • Mr. Sravxass, of Pennsylvania, offered an amend ment increasing by twenty'per cent. for one year. from 30th June, „1867„ . the compensation of all the employes in the various civil departments of the government at Washington, whose present compensation was less than $2,000 per annum, the addition not to make the compensation any more than $2,000. lie explained the amendment, and stated that the restriction of the increase in salaries below $2.000 would diminish by one-half the amount required last year under a proposition to increase compensation twenty per cent. Mr. Nicuersos, of Del aware, offered as a substitute an amendment continuing in force for one year, from :elth Sine, 1867, the joint resolution of February 28, 1867, giving additional compensation. Mr. Wasuntrnen, of Illinois, desired it understood that neither of those amendments came from the Committee on Appropriations. Mr. BENJAMIN, of Missouri,' represented that the whole subject was before the Committee on Re trenchment, and that no action should be taken on the matter till after the report of that committee. Mr. Nicholson's substitute was rejected, and Mr. Stevens' amendment was also rejected. The Committee theu rose, and reported back the bill to the House. Mr. STEISNES, of -Permsylvatia,- then offered his amendment intim House; and it was adopted—yeas, 78; nayS, 70. The amendment applies to all the civil employes of the government, regular and temporary, male and female, including the navy-yard, public printing office, coast survey, the Executive mansion, detailed en listed men, &ci, whose compensation is less than $2,000.

SAFETY RAILROAD SWITCH MAIN TRACK -UNBROKEN. I am now prepared to furnish railroads throughout the United States; with my Patent Railroad Switches, by the use of which the MAIN TRACK IS NEVER BROKEN, and it is impossible for any accident to occur from the misplacement et switches. • The saving thralls. and the great saving in wear of the rolling stock, which is by this means provided' with a level, smooth. and firm track at switches in place of the renal movable tam and • the consequent severe blows caused by the open joints and, battered ends, la a matter deserving theattention of aditafiroad Companies. AS AMA OF ECONOMY ALONE this inieq• tion needs only to be tried to insure its adoption; but beyond the economy THE PERFECT IMMUNITY FROM ACCIDENT caused by misplaced switches is a subject, not only of importance In respect to property saved from destruction, but It concertos THE LIFE AND LIMB OF ALL TRAVELERS UPON RAILROADS.
