WEDNESDAY, NOY. 12, 1862. A Companion Picture, The English newspapers have a treasure, l ln the person of Ex-Governor MokeheAd, of Kentucky; ‘ This distinguished gentleman has no.-more claim to their attention than the fact of his having enjoyed the hospitality of the Government at Fort Lafayette? subsequently escaping to London. He is known; here as a ponderous orator, a shallow, statesman, an eminently respectable politician, once Gover nor of Kentucky, arid the orimer of a plan tation in Mississippi. This last fact is the most material to our present purpose, for we have now n ‘to speak of him as a reluctant Secessionist and an infuriated traitor. On arriving at Liverpool ho became at once a lion, and delighted a little club of Se cessionists, of which Mr; Jambs Spence is chairman, with a fearful picture of his wrongs. According to Mr. Morehead, there is no Government on the face of the earth to compare with ours in tyranny and oppression. He was dragged from his house at midnight, refused a hearing on a habeas corpus, placed in a bed at Port Lafayette -several inches too short for him, and compelled to drink water s not quite as pure as his Kentucky springs, but, nevertheless, the water which every soldier ia the fort gladly accepted. This fearful state pf affairs, bavicg been properly embellished by Mr. is now being rolled like a sweet morsel under the venomous tongue of the English press. The London Times be comes extravagantly rhetorical, and speaks wildly of heathendom, and Dahomey, add the cruelty to the Poles. Mr. Spence, of Liver * pool, introduces General Butler as the first villain of the play—the Togo, the Mcphisto philes, the Richard, the Edgar, the Haynau, the beast—as anything, indeed, that repre sents mental deformity and moral monstrosity, and compares New Orleans to Venice—“ this forlorn Venice of the West.” “Is the name of Lincoln,” sajs the Times, “ultimately to be classed among that catalogue of monsters, the wholesale assassins and butchers of their kind?” “ Are scenes like those which we, a short time since, described from Daho mey, yet to interpose?” “Concurrent tes timony seems to show that, to this worse than Dahomey slaughter, are about to be added the horrors of servile war.” We select these sentences at random from an extensive vocabulary of invective and sarcasm, the im mediate cause of which is the strange story of Mr. Morehead. It would-not he profitable to dwell upon the romantic conceptions of this ramty, let us quictiy_oxerlook his excitement and perturbation, and give our English friends a companion picture. In the eastern part of Tennessee, among the mountains that traverse the State, a hardy, in dustrious, and faithful people live, as thev have lived for generations. They have culti vated farms, and are in all respects good and honest citizens, true to the Union and the Con stitution, and living in the midst of free insti tutions. They have no sympathy with slavery, and little with slaveholders. They are stran gers to the great Secession conspiracy, he. cause their leaders have been carefully ex cluded from Secession counsels, as dan gerous men. blow is struck at the Union, and instantly an armed rebellion extends throughout the land. They are' asked to become partners to the general guilt, but refuse. The love the Union, they love the flag, they love the country of their fathers. They cannot abandon honor, peace, home, liberty, and law at the mere dictation of an oligarchy of armed rebels, and they re iterate their devotion to the nation. Then comes a persecution such as the world has never, witnessed. These men of the South, professing to fight for their own liberty, commence their campaign with a war upon the liberty of . others.— brutality which recalls Milton’s prayer for vengeance upon the murderers of the “Lord’s Slaughtered Saints.” Men were taken from their homes, driven to the mountains, and ; hanged upon trees by the roadside until, their bodies were removed by cha- ritable carion. Prisons were filled with the best and purest of the community ; women and children and helpless old men were driven from their homes, the earnings of years confiscated or given to the flames. . Mot only In Tennessee, bnt in Virginia and Texas and the Carolines, wherever the slightest evi dence of a Union was manifested, with banishment, imprisonment, and death. North ern men were driven from the South, or compelled to take up arms in obedience to a ruthless conscription, and by a general edict ot the President of the rebel Confederacy every resident of eleven States of the Union was compelled tq perjure himself by dishono ring his oath of allegiance, or be punished as the alien enemy of a military despotism. We know how absolutely this punishment was in flicted. . We do not enter into discussion as to the grievances of Mr. Mokeheadj or any other traitor who has suffered the punishment his deserved. If our English brothers have tears to shed let them think of the unimaginable crimes attending the inau guration of this rebellion, and the suf ferings of faithful Union men.. If.’a sleek, well-fed, and pardoned traitor, like Moubhead, who has not lost a dollar by the rebellion, but on the contrary has been most mercifully treated by. our indulgent Go vernment, can excite so much sympathy from these sensitive Sbxods, what a scene would await the victims of rebel persecution, like Bn.owxx.ow or Hamilton-, or an object of rebel hate, like Cobcokan or Wit.cox ? Italy and Garibaldi, Tlie Italian question, to a satisfactory and honorable solution of which Napoleon seems to-have committed himself with inflexible de termination, appears to be not a single step nearer adjustment by virtue of the accession of M. Dbodtk »e L’Hbys to the French Mi nistry. The new minister has. triumphed over a powerful rival; and has been re stored to the confidence, which his faith ful services in previous years entitled him to, and to the post for which his ripe ex perience fitted him. That is all the change really means. Somebody has taken Tnou venel’s place; the Imperial councils will be more harmonious henceforth, perhaps ; the European journals will print whole co lumns about the change to be wrought in the destinies of Italy by the reconstructed Cabi net. But M. De L’Huys, in his first official circular, informs the world that the Emperor’s policy will remain the same as enunciated in May last; in ether words, the rights of Italy are to be maintained, and the interests of the Pa pacy promoted. Unreasonable people may sug gest that the two purposes are, in a Napoleonic sense, irreconcilable, and the first mentioned, if at all entertained, is really held subsidiary to the latter. Italy, at least, seems to view the matter thus unreasonably, and M. oe L’Huys’ pronunciamitnto has produced no more sensa tion than if it wore so much blank paper. Italy somehow clings to the notion that liberty is more precious than choice rhetoric—more to-be prized even than Imperial manifestos. The English journals, which have espoused the cause of the new Republic, are delighted with the apathy with which the Italians have learned that M. Thovvexkl has been deposed by a Minister decidedly hostile to their cause. It is regarded as a manifestation not of a sub missive, but of a confident and self-reliant spirit; and seme of the Turin correspondents refer to it as an evidence that the «Italian .difficulty’’ is as far from any settlement as ever, Napoleon, if he were sincere in his expressions of interest for the welfare of Italy, could settle the whole trouble as easily as he has fomented and abetted it. He. could withdraw fhe troops from Rome, reinstate THOUVENELj retain Fould and Pp.hsiony, and in other ways give proof of hia desire to see the young Re public spring up to be a giant among the Powers of Europe. Ho does not do this, and we must conclude that his protestations of sin cerity aie a sham, and that hi's real designs are too visionary ever to reach ascomplish ment. /.'/ i '..1 Meanwhile, by the waters of the mournful bay ofSpczziu, made memorable by Shelley's mournful deatb, and now more memorable -still, lies Gab in alb i on the couch of, suffering, perhaps upon the bed of death. It has not been many months since he was scoffed at as the visionary, and his heroism derided as the prompting of fanaticism. He is now wan and wasted, and never more, perhaps, will mar shalhis little band of followers, or load them in the deadly struggle for their liberties; the deadly struggle that other eyes, as visionary as Gaiubaldi-'s, foresee must come when he, perhaps, may no longer he a living witness. He at whose call all Italy once rose to arms; whose blazing sword pointed out the pathway that was to lead the new Republic to bar destined rank among the nations; whose guidance was accepted as a promise of unity,, prosperity, and peace; and .whose success-* was wished for by the friends of human free dom throughout the world—that noble hearted leader is now wounded and a prisoner at Vdrignano, with no present promise of re lease but that of death. The career of this extraordinary man, brief 'though it has been, has been a sad commentary on the frailty of human hopes, and a bitter experience for one who deserved a better fortune. True, Garibaldi was an enthusiast; not in the cause of Italy alone, but in behalf of every oppressed people. A short time before his fall he published an appeal to the Hungarians, in the Italian journals, in which such sen tences as these occur : “ Woo to Hungary!— woe to every oppressed people—if you obey fal lacious and cowardly counsels, if you think any other pact between you and Austria possible ex cepthatred and war! Oh, brothers! do not miss this propitious opportunity. The Servians are fighting for liberty—for the emancipation of a whole race which has been- oppressed and out raged.” And again he said : “ Italy, who loves you as brothers, whio: has promised to repay you the price of blood which; your brave sons have shed for her on many battle field; Italy? 1 grateful, and who honors and blesses the sacred memory of Tuckery, who died fOr her, calls upon you to share her new battles and her new victories over despotism;,she in vokes you, in the name of the holy fraternity of peoples, in the name of the welfare of all.” This is the language of the hero who has been steered at, even in his sufferings, as a vision ary; anef. yet this language, too earnest not to be sincere, is the utterance of one who, for the freedom of his fellow-men, is himself willing to endure the tortures of a prison and the ignominy of captivity; of one who is sustained through all his trials and sorrows by the visions that his hopes have pictured to him, of Italy some day restored to quiet and security. Which of the two is the vain visionary— Napoleon in his council chamber, with his ministers mapping out the destiny of Italy as a dependency of France, to bo kept in sub jection by French bayonets; or the pale, fe verish Garibaldi, sustained in his greatest troubles by the inborn conviction that his be loved country—the shrine of Art, the land of History and Romance—was destined to be inde pendent of a foreign rule, and will one day rise in majesty to work out that destiny. Napoleon uuimaence is less upon statesmari ship than upon an immutable principle of hu man nature—the instinctive love of liberty and country, which is born with man’s birth, .grows with his growth, and is never so fully warmed into boing as when liberty and coun try are endangered, either speciously by di plomacy, or openly by force of arms. We trust to time more than to the good offices of Napoleon to settle the Italian question, and vindicate the character of Garibaldi. LETTER FROM “ OCCASIONAL ” . . . Washington, Nov. 11, 1862. The forthcoming December number of the “ Continental Monthly which will probably appear early next week, will contain two pa pers from Hon. It. J. Walker, entitled, re spectively, “ The Union ” and “ Gold.” The first goes statistically and philosophically to show the effect of slavery upon our national progress in wealth, population, science, litera ture, education, religion, and intellectual de velopment. It compares the slaveholding with the non-slaveholding States, and shows the' wonderful superiority of the latter in all these great elements. It then proceeds to illustrate this position by thb history of individual States, and compares the progress, since 7 700 Massachusetts, Carolina, redevelops ancf establishes . these astounding facts from the last census, that Massachusetts, with free labor and free schools, produces , three hundred dollars per capita; Maryland, ninety-one dollars per capita ; and South Oa rolitia fifty-six! To this Mi-. Walker adds a ■table,-in reference to the progress of the sa vage Indian tribes, showing their products to bo fourteen dollars and sixty cent 3 per ca pita- Thus it appears that Massachusetts, with free labor and free schools, produces per capita three times as much as Maryland,- and five times as much as South Carolina; and lhat Maryland, with few slaves, produces near ly twice as much as South Carolina, with many. But the most astounding disclosure Is the fact that Massachusetts, in this respect, is further in advance of South Carolina than the latter is in advance of the savages. Mr. Walker makes, on this basis, three divisions in the progress of civilization : First. Massa chusetts, the most highly civilized community in this country and in the whole world. Se cond. South Carolina, ; and third. The barbarous savage tribes. I have only room to give one further item which will be interesting to the newspaper press, viz: that the annual circulation of newspapers and periodicals in Massachusetts is one hundred and two millions , Maryland twenty millions, and South Carolina three millions! So much for the State that proposes to in struct our own country and other nations in the great problem of Government. Mr. Walker shows by his tablos that if each State and Territory of the Union produced as much, every year, per capita , as Massachusetts, our whole annual products would exceed nine Mllions of dollars! Mr. Walker’s article on Gold” discusses that subject, including the mineral public lands, with a view to re venues. He recommends the subdivision of these lands into one-acre tracts, their ex amination and appraisement, and sales by bids communicated to the Interior Depart ment, not below the minimum appraisement. This system, he thinks, would bring at least five hundred millions of dollars, in the course of time, into the treasury of the-United States. The subdivision into tracts of one acre each, he would confine to lands producing gold and and the other mineral lands into forty-acre tracts, as now authorized jby law. This system Mr. Walker recommends as regards our unoccupied mineral lands. As to those worked Jby the present miners, the' pioneers who, ‘at great sacrifices of life and money, have explored these regions and developed the mines, under the acqui escence of the Government and an implied pledge of protection, ho. advises that the miners’ code and surveys should be adopted and confirmed by the Government, and that a full title in fee simple should be issued to these pioneer miners at the cost of survey and incidental expenses. This he estimates would prove alike advantageous to the Government and the miners, enabling many’who now have no title, by receiving a perfect right, to secure the capital indispensable to the.MLdevelop ment arid successful working of thlHmiines. I have made this resume from advance proof sheets of these two fine papers as the best matter I could send you to-day. The views of Governor 5 Walker are entitled to the care ful consideration of the Government. . Occasional. : ; Fub’ic Entertainments : s«e A»ch street Theatre— Mr. Clarke, for the ifcrco Digits, hts made hia appearance in pieces that n>iy be said lo represent the two extremes of modern C( medy. ‘- The Babes in the Woods,” by Tom Taylor, is one of the prettiest little play s we have seen fop many a day, while “ Industry and Idleness,” by Sterling Coyne; may be regarded es one of the moat stupid and silly per formancra upon the stage.: It would be hard to conceive anything more wretched. It possesses neither wit, pa tfcos, poetry, nor originality. There is not a single well drawn character in the play—not a single sentiment that a sensible spectator would oare to remember - We are surpiited that even the great genius and popularity of Mr. Clarke has been enabled to keep it alive for three nights, and we are very much surprised that a manager, of Mrs Drew’s tsste and experience should permit such amedley of trash and nonsensp to be performed. We have all the worn out machinery of the Btagesliice the time of Shakspeare. We have a trap-door that leads to ibe cellar and a trap.door that leads to the robr, to gether with many curions feats on the part of an es caping villain and pursuing policeman that excite tbs wonder and apprehension of the upper circles. ' We have a couventicnal villain who wears a seedy hat, as all vil- ' lains are In duty bound to do, an honest but severe old merchant, who comes in at the proper time to say “ Bless. you, my children,” a faithful clerk, who doss not atea ten thousand pounds, but, being oharged with the theft, of course gets crazy, to the great distress of the lady lo whom he is engaged., A homceopathio physician, who wears a “ ohoker ” collar and talks lh a deep bass voice, is engaged* by the lady, and cures the maniao in. a manner that -reflects B ’ t ® t cre dit upon her constancy and his professional f at ke plays la the most anomalous in the wholej drama. He is a joyous young inan, In • blue coat, red veßt, and ingenious hat. whohas a little money, and in eponding It gets drunk, and very soon so ber again. He plays the French horn and an organ, Etad con 6ft In At ths last not to be reclaimed by the gene. riiaS eld merchant, after baying been unnecessarily to duced to dcetltntion. Among tbe other characters we bare a faithful old servant, whose constant coughing leads ns to suspect him of a base imitation of Ur. Forrest in Richeiieu; and a female lodging-housekeeper, who wears a peculiar bonnet, and of course creates a great deal of merriment Altogether, we have no hesitation in speaking of this play as a silly, absurd and tedious performance, Bad to express our surprise that Ur. Clarke should have taken a part BO far beneath his ability and fame. ( r; FB 01 WASH IJST-0 TbSf , Special Despatches to “The Press.” Washikotoh, November 11,1862.

Gen. McClellan’* Farewell to the Army. Major General McClellan and his personal staff left Warrenton at 11 o’clock to-day. On reaching Warren ton Junction a salute wes fired. The troops, which had been drawn up in line, afterwards broke ranks, when the soldiers crowded around him and many eagerly called for a few parting words. He said, In response, while on the platform of the railroad car: “Iwishyou to stand by Gen. Bdknsibe as you have stood by me, and all will be well. Goodnje” To this there was a spontaneous and enthusiastic re sponse. The troops were also drawn up in line at Bristow and Manassas Junction, where salutes were fired, and where Gen. McClellan was complimented with enthusiastic ■cheers. The party arrived here this af.ernoon, just in time to take the five o’clock train of oars for Baltimore. Tko cars being detained owing to some impediment on the track; Gen. McClell an recognized the many sol diers quartered in that vicinity, when he was greeted with oft-repeated cheers.

As an army you have grown np under my care.: In yen I have never found doubt or coldness., The battles you have fought under my command will proudly litre in our national history. The glory yon have aohieved, our mutual peril and fatigue, the graves of our comrades fallen in battle and by disease, the broken forms of those whom wounds and sickness have disabled, are the strongest assertions which can exist among men, united still by an indissoluble tie, that ,we will ever be comrades in supporting the Constitution of our country and the nationality of its people.

He sucoeedod very wall; took the places, made several captures, and compelled the enemy to barn several of their vessels; but on one occasion, venturing on Shore with Ms small boat, he was surrounded, taken prisoner, and carried to Houston, where they paroled him on condition that he should go North, and not serve until regularly exchanged. 5 ; I next sent the Kensington, Aoting Master Crocker commanding, with the Bactae! seamen, and a launch with a howitzer, to Sabine Pass.

The enthusiastic par tiality of foe soldiery at present in onr city, and their’Appreciation of foe military abilities of foeir'fdr mer Genera!, induced a somewhat general demonstra tion on the‘ part of both tho military and the peo ple. During yesterday and foe day previous, the arri val-of every train at the Baltimore depot wag regu larly heralded by a shout and a cheer for McClellan, while the occnpants of the cars were repeatedly cross examined hy anxious inquirers as to the whereabouts of the great General; Enthusiasm and curiosity are always contagions; and therefore it is not surprising, that after nearly three days of expectanoy the commander of a noble army should be welcomed to his home by foe spon taneousplaudits of his fellow-citizens. lell’s old h Wood cannon, ion Hop received tok in the Preparations were made to receive General McClellan yesterday afternoon, as It was confidently believed he would arriv'e.in the city by the train due from Washing ton at half past five o’clock. Bands of music were in attendance at the depot; the recruiting sergeants for the regimenhto the; field were drawn up In line under com mand of Sergt. Fox, of Bush’s Bancors; the people as sembled in largo numbers, and their welcoming outbursts of applause raDg through the building as the cars en tered the depot. In a few momenta, however, it was as certained that General McClellan was not on the train, though rumor said he would arrive at 11 o’clock P. M. Thebandsihenretired and the crowd slowly dispersed. Before proceeding to the depot the recruiting ser geants, having with them Birgfield’s band, serenaded Dr. McClellan, a brother of the General, at his residence in Walnut street, and also General Patterson, at Thir teenth and Itooust streets. Boon after this a despatch was received from Balti more stating that General McClellan haa just left that city, and would be in Philadelphia about midnight. As it was generally expected that he would stopover night at the Continental Hotel, a large crowd collected at that place, and cheer alter cheer rent the air. When the Washington train came in,.lt was thought that the General had taken a private conveyance to the Conti nental, and, upon the arrival of 'the hotel coach with the Waih'iDgton passengers, lond cries were made for Mc- Clellan Finally en announcement was made from the balcony that the General had not arrived, upon which the disappointed crowd returned to their homes. SCENES AT THU DEPOT.. . ■ The recruiting sergeants, preceded by their band, ar rived at the Baltimore depot abont ten o’clock, where a iarge crowd of citizens was also in waiting. The door of the depot was guarded by policemen, and none were al lowed to enter except passengers bound for Washington. The crowd outside iv idled away time by .alternate cheers for McClellan and the Army of the Potomac. Birgfeld’s band was stationed on Prime street, above the depot, and played a continuous strain, of patriotic airs, which kept up :he enthusiasm to fever heat. About il o’clock ■ the band csrne inside the depot, end played the « Bsd, White, and Blue” amid great cheering. A whistle from the' locomotive was heard in the distance, and a cry of “ here he comes” r ang through the building The tops of th'^ freight cars and the passenger cars were thick with boysand men. The train £id come,but it brought disap pointment, for McClellan was not a passenger . Yet there was little disposition shown on the part of the crowd to leave. They againsnmsid themaolvos with sieging and cheering- Dr. McClellan was, during the wholeof the even • ing inside the ticket office, and was not recognized until he merged with iho conductor, when he proceeded outside ilie depot, to await the coming of the train. The knowing ones observed *. this ‘movement, and large numbers followed. About twenty minutes af. ter 11 the first whistle of the approaching; train was heard, the loccmalive came rnßhing along, leaving the cars to be flanked into the depot. Instantly the crowd ontside rushed toward; the building, but they had no sooner got . inside than the train in which General McOleiian was reached Broad'street. Th.o baud then struck np “ Hail to the Chief,” and a scene of enthusiasm followed which was of the most intense cha racter. !,Obeer after cheer went up, first for Mo Jlellau and then 'for the Army of the Potomac.

The train then moved off and the General task his seat in the oar, a Dumber of persons officiating as po licemen, in order to prevent too great a ruih upon the platform. Several of the windows of the oar were utterly smashed, and one or two which were open were made use of to gain an entrance, which operation was accom plished in several instances. SCENES/ALONG PRIME STREET. 1 The train moved down Prime atreet at a brisk rate, the crowd following from the depot, keeping up an uni versal clatter of feet on the sidewalks, while their cheers redoubled in number and volnme. The train* moved quicker, and so did the people. Those of them who could secure a foothold on the steps of the car platforms maintained their slight tenure, with despe rate tenacity. Occasionally somo unlucky wight would slip from: his perch, souse into the slush of the-street, while the more , fortunate chuckled over their sudden downfall. Once the speed of the cara slacked, when an impetuous rush was made by the unflagging concourse rapidly approaching in the rear. A medley of cheers and cries arose around the carwbioh contained the General, but the train again re suming its increased speed, the enthusiasts found it ne cessary, in order to get along quicker, to save their wind by keeping their months Bhnt. The train at last baited in front of the Refreshment Saloons, when, in answer to repeated cries for McClellan, tbe General appeared at fine of the oar windows, and, leaning ont, extended his right hand to the crowd. It ws3 immediately grasped by the hands of at least a dozen persons. The rush for a <• shake’ would have formed a fine Beene for the pencil of the ar tist. In grateful return for the compliment of his prof fered friendship, tho mechanic, the laborer—the‘rich and the poor—all alike joyfully accepted the token of fellowship la the great cause of Right and Justice. The grasp of the General was warm and earnest, not a delicate pressure, but a real heartfelt squeeze. The boat having been reached, Gen. McClellan alighted from tho car and walked, or rather was carried on the shoulders of the people, on board. A parting cheer proclaimed his departure. It was two o’clock, this morning when tho General left the wharf. Interesting News by the Paw nee.—The sloop of-war Pawnee, whioh arrived off the navy yard on Monday, brought a few scraps of news in the shape of incidental observations during her cruise In the direction ot the Florida coast. She left Port Royal on the 3d for Philadelphia. During the greater portion of the voyage she experienced squally weather, espe cially. when nearing the capes of the Delaware. The performance of her machinery, and the general capabi lities of the boat, are described as very creditable. When leaving Fort Royal the steam frigate Powhatan ar rived from Charleston harbor, for the purpose of taking in coal. In the vicinity—within a range of fifty miles—the Pawnee spoke the following vessels 6f war: Wabash, Sabagq, Marble Head, Vermont, Pow hatan, and Water Witch. A majority of these vessels were on blockade duty off Oharleefen harbor. Prepara tions for a combined attack upon Charleston and Savan nah were being gradually matured, the crews of the Powhatan and other vessels being occasionally employed In taking soundings along the coast: The weather off the coast of South Carolina Is at present of that nn healthy nature so productive cf fevers. The death of General Mitchell is deeply regretted by the officers and men of the entire military and naval forces about Port Royal. His funeral was the occasion of a heartfelt de monstration in testimony of his many virtues as amsn BEdbis decided ability as a commander. Among other incidents of recent occurrence,* it is stated : that,' a boat’s crew from one of the U. S. vessels blockading Charleston came very near being captured by tbo rebels. Tho men; numbering twenty-four, were in the harbor taking soundings, as usual, and getting further in than . ptudenee would warrant, a Secesh steamer suddenly matte her appearance, steaming di rectly for the boat, the occupants of which*, perceiving their danger, immediately plied their oars with the utmost vigor. After an exciting chase of a couple of miles, the venturesome littio band reached their ship in safety. ' ' 0 . y At foe time of tho capture of Fernandina, Fla, foe Pawnee was the flagship of the squadron making the attack, after which ehe guarded the place for three months from incursions by the <‘rebs.” From thence she wasordered up Stono Inlet, towards Charleston, and when the U. S. forces retreated from James Island she assisted to cover foe retreat. The armament of the ship consists of eight nine inch gnus, a one-hnndred-ponnder rifled gun, a fifty pounder Dahlgren, and a twelve-pound, howitzer. Her comple meat of officers and men is 230. The Pawnee will shortly be overhauled at foe Navy Yard for the purpose of receiving necesssry repairs. -' The Confidence Game- Swindling ON AN EXTENSIVE SCALE —A. M. Densmore and J. H. Stover were before Alderman McOahea yesterday afternoon on the charge of conspiracy, and attempt to de fraud. The complainant was Wm. Bowers, of Blading. On foe 141 U of October, Mr. Sowers’ ej e lit upon the following advertisement in one of the city dailies, and no doubt his mind at once was filled with visions of future fortunes: @5OO .WANTED—This sum or more in an extremely profitable cash badness ; it would return $26 par week' for services, and the capital well seonred. Inquire of A. M. Denemore, ]S2jf South Third street. Mr. Bowers presented himself at Mr. Denßmore’s office, and inquired foe nature of the business in which he wag ILwai replied that the business was ticai stock and insurance coccerrx; v ~H‘n WS7 .leave @2OO before he could be allowed to know the se crets of tho “Institution.” It appears that a favorable impression was conveyed :to Bowers’ mind, and ho .willingly gave foe S2OO. In a day or two ho de sired the information, and insisted on having It. Mr- Dtnsmore replied that ho would be. obliged to consult Mr. -gtever, his partner. The roault of foe consnltation was that Mr. Bowers was aot to bo allowed to be posted as to foe 1 werkings of the concern wifoont an extra coneideration. Bowers then forked over another SflOO, and the next day S2oo—making foe @5OO, as required in the advertisement. Last Saturday Mr. Bowers insisted on having a statement, and asked for his share of tho profits. He received a cheek for @2O, and @lO in cash. On presenting the check at bank he was told there was no money with which te honor it. Bowers sudderly became alive to: the fact that he had been duped, and he conseqnentiy applied for relief to , Alderman McOahen; who, after a patient hearing of foe testimony, committed both the defendants to answer. v A Suit fob Advances to Seamen. A case was tried in the District Court yesterday which raises a question of some importance. A ahipping firm in this city, Mossrs. Maguire & Shaw, brought suit against Alien HcOawley, captain of foe British bark Lehman, to recover too saw of 8410, being foe amount of advance money to a-crew shipped by them for the vessel, and the cost of transportation of the men from New York to this city. The contraqt was made in January last, when iho vessel was about to sail for Liver pool, and foe advance paid to each man was $35. The defence set up was of a two fold character: Ist, that by the plaintifi's’ own showingfit appeared that foe contract wea made with foe owners of tho bark, and not with the captain, and that, therefore, they were foe parties liable! and secondly, that foe contract was for able-bodied sea • men, whereas the men shipped were mostly entirely un acquainted with their dnties, were brousht on to the ves sel in an intoxicated state, totally unfit for doty, and before the vessel had got to foe navy yarl, the captain was obliged to put back on account of their refusal and inability to perform their duties. On reaching the wharf it was found necessary to discharge them and ship an entirely new crew. A point was raised here, that until the vessel left foe port foe shipping masters were entirely responsible for foe conduct of the seamen, and that if they failed to perform their duties, it was their province to compel them to fulfil their contract or else provide a new crew. The cate was given to the jury at a late hour, with permission to seal their verdict. Van dyke for foe plaintiffs; J. E. Gowen for defendants, The Berry Homicide CASE—AC QUITTAL OFFERTEB.— Andrew Porter, the last of the parties implicated in the murder of Bichard M. Berry, at Eggiesfleld, on the 29th of May last, was put on trial yesterday, in the Court of Oyer and Terminsr, before Judged Thompson , and Allison.

Marshal Jenkins, and Ser geant Tjron, arrived from New Yoik last evening, hav ing in their possession a number of bank-note plates, ustd by a notorious counterfeiter, named George White, formerly of this city. White resided at one time in the neighborhood of Twelfth and Brown streets, and has long been watched by the officers, beiog known to be engaged in the counterfeiting business.' He, a short time since, removed with his family to Now York, where he was followed by the officials named. It seems that White has, for some. time,, carried on two counter feiting establishments in New York, 'a fact which' does not. reflect groat credit on the police of that city. The officers, after reaching New York, hunted up White, took him into custody, and seized all his plates, which were for the making of notes on the banks of four different States. The prisoner is abont fifty years of age, and one of the most expert counterfeiters that ever lived. He, some years since, counterfeited SlOO notes on the Philadelphia Bank, which were so finely ‘executed that, at first, they deceived the,officers of the bank. He also counterfeited notes on various other Philadelphia banbß,’and has always been looked upon as a dangerous character.

Philadelphia, tfov, 11, Bnefneee on the street was rather quiet to-day, Qald was steady at 132 until near the close, when it fell one per cent., and closed on a weak market at 131 hid. Old demands fell to 125#, and so continued, with but mode rate transactions. Government securities still remain weak. There has been a toil in the subscription to the five-twenty sixes during the last day or two, which Is to be exceedingly regretted. A. loan bearing sax per cent, interest, payable in gold, making It at present nearly equal to an eight per cent, security, and which, besides, s one of the main stays of ths financial credit of our great nationality, and on which the future suseesa of onr cause so mush depends, is daily neglected, while bonds bearing only six per cent, interest, on which there is a Government tax of three percent., are eagerly bought at prices ranging from 3 to 10 per cent, above par. Com mon sagacity ought to point out to a man the fitness of the five, twenty loan, if merely an investment la desired; and when it comes to the question of the security of the investment, a simple look into the following facts ought to convince any one, however timid, of the pre-eminence of the five-twenties. Ist. These bonds are first mort gages on tTie first mortgage bonds of any and every corporation of any Statej now under the Fe deral control. 2d. It is estimated that the enor mous stamp revenue will reach an amount] double that of the interest on the whole debtor the United States, this secures the simple payment of the interest 3d. The exhaustion of the old demand-notes as a custoi bouse medium will Boon require the payment in gold of import dutiesi which will far exceed the amount required; the Government thereby is safe In her promises of paying gold on these bonds, 4th. In the event of the war ceasing within a year a limit will be placed upon Government issnes, and they cannot fail lo reach a figure equal to the highest market price of any security on the list of the three cities. To the business man and to the patriot these bonds commend themselves with equal address, and it is to be hoped that the removal of au able, hut some what mysterious army officer, will no longer cause a de linquency in the bosoms of true Americans. Tbs Go vernment agent in this city, Mr, Jay Cooke, No. 114 South Third street, is prepared to receive subscriptions to any amount, interest to commence from date of sub- scription. '*• The stock market was much more active and prices show a firmer feeling, with the exception of Govern ments, which are Btrangely weak, the seven-thirtios falling off %, the sixes %.
