Appleton & Co., the eminent, New York pub lithe ! are as active as their neighbors in the pro duction of standard works. Their "New Ameri can Cyclortedia," every line of whichwas expressly written for It, will long remain an example of their enterprise end judgment. Commenced in the au tumn of 1861, just when the country had "fallen upon evil daps,'" it was issued, as promised, with surprising regularity, and completed in a manner creditable to the firm and satisfactory to the public. Their scientific library, their Dusseldorf Gallery, and other richly-illustrated works; their superb edition, in two volumes, octavo, of James Stuart Mill's "Principles of 'Political Economy," and other publication., are equally creditable to their judgment. They have recently commenced the reissue of a work lately begun irk:London. This is a "His tory of the World," by Philip Smith, one of the chief writers of the splendid series of Smith's Die. tionaries of Greek and Roman Antiquities, Biogra phy, and Geography. We have aeon the first num ber, which is full of promise. " Life of Theodore Parker," Hunt's " Life of Edward Living atone ;" their beautiful edition of alerivs'n's " His tory of the_Romans under the Empire," of which three volumes have appeared, and their reprint, in a manner superior to the London edition, of RaWlinson and Wilkinson's new English Version of "The History of Herodotus," should also be borne in mind. Merivaleee Roman History covers the whole time from the that Triumvirate to the transfer of the Best of Empire from Rome to Constantinople, a period of 400 Sears, at the close of which Gibbon's annals commence. The first and second volumes contain the best account or Julius OMlttnett splendid career yet written, and the third event t 6 graphic account of what happened in Rome after his death; the fall of Antonius, Brutus, Cassius, and Cicero ; the ap pointment of Octavius to supreme power, as Int perator, (Emperor,) and hie assumption of the title Of Augustus ; and the early events of his long and brilliant reign. This reprint exactly follows the fourth London edition, and, like that, has a num ber of-necessary maps, and will have a copious ans. lytioal index. Messrs. Appleton lately published a 12mo. volume, entitled "-Education ; intellectual, moral, and phy sical? which has attracted the attention, and ob tained the eulogy of some of the deepest thinkers, ablest writers, and best teachers in this country. It was written by Herbert Spencer, well known as a large contributor to the leading quarterly reviews of England. From these he has lately selected thir teen essays, which Meagre. Appleton have printed in a handsome volume, entitled "Illustrations of Universal Progress." This Will soon be followed by a volume entitled " Essays ; moral, political, and resthetio." 01 all Ergliah writers now living, none has investigated the philosemby of Nature so closely or so successfully, and his wonderfully lucid manner of expression may be noticed as a leading cause of hie success. The papers in this volume on Manners and Fashion, the Phe siologyof Laughter, the Origin and Function of Music, and the Development Hy pothesis, will be felted particularly attractive to general readers. - It in Messrs. AnPietou'e intention to repiibligh the whole of Herbert Sperteerie writings. They have also published a volume of "Church Elitism" by G. C. McWhorter, (whose " Popular Handbook or the New Testament" we lately had occasion to commend.) and this opens with an exact history of the formation of the beautiful Liturgy of the Church of England. "Mount Vernon, and other Poems," by Harvey Rice ' containing something that is good, With much that is commonplace and feeble, and some terribly bad rhymes, (we have no hope of a man who makes arm rhyme with calm, dawn with sown, charm with balm, fawn with morn, and so on,) yet, after all, showing occasional depth of thought— as in to The Miters , of Life"--and a thorough boy. ally, which covers a multitude ,of [literary] sins. Very different is a volume called "Hints to Rine men," by H. W. S. Cleveland, of Danvers, Mass., whish is practical, and has told us more about rifles and rifie.ehooting than We ever knew be. e. Whoever wants to learn the power of a rifle, and the construction of the weapon by various makers, will economize time and research by giving Mr. Cleveland's volume a careful pc rand. Messrs. Appleton's latest publication is a per' sonar narrative, entitled "My Cave Life in Vicks burg." The author is a female Secessionist, who left a place called Sachsen, "on the night of the 15th" (month and year not stated), for Vicksburg, lived in a cave there for sonic Weeks, during the bombardment and until General Grant took the place. Previous letters from other Secession locali ties follow the main narrative. The book really is of very little interest, except where it shows to what straits the besieged in Vicksburg were reduced ere they gave in. The above.named works can be prod cured from Ashmead do Evans, 724 Chestnut street. - A work wholly new in its character, and likely to interest s. great number of readers, Is announced by Mr. Appleton to be completed in two large volumes, Bvo., (to inAtch with Burton% Encyclopedia of Wit and Humor, we suppose,) and to be entitled the " , Cyclopedia Of Commercial and Business Anec dotes." It a ill be written, edited, and compiled by Frazer Kirkland ; will have forty portraits on steel, ar,d many wood engravings, and will exhibit the humorous phase of trade amt traders. The portraits are in groups, and finely engraved on steel. In the centre of one group is the vera effigies of John Grigg, who, sir gle•handee but enterprising, built up in this city the greatest book-selling business in this country. Besides the portraits of noted merchants in Europe, Asia, and America, the work will con tain woodcuts of amusing incidents in their lives, and views of many business localities. This Cyclo pedia, if we may judge from what we have seen of it, will be just the book to take up and read in the odd half bouts everybody has, and thereby gain in formation while seeking only for amusement. It will be sold only by subscription, and the Dole agent for this city is James K. Simon, 33 South Sixth street. The Progress of the Freedmen. A STATE/511MT OP FACTS. To the Editor of the Press PANNA. FRNIMMEN'S RELIES: ASSOCIATION, 424 WALNUT. STIIENT, April 19a1, 1864 Sxa: I send you herewith a letter which I think, if you should have room for it, will interest your readers. It is from Mr. Reuben Tomlinson, Govern ment Superintendent of the Freedmen in St. Hele na's and Ladies' Islands in South Carolina. Mr. Tomlinton it a Philadelphian, well and favo rably known to many of the best people of this city. He went out to Port Royal under the auspices of our Relief Committee, as an ordinary superintend. ent, and has since raised himself to hie present re aponsible and honorable position by his merit and' ability. His duties are at this time chiefly magiste rial; be hear. complaints, and settles difficulties arising among the freedmen, lenjoying the confi dencealike of General Saxton, who appointed him to the office, and of the colored people who have to abide by his decisions. He is particularly well quell. fled for hit duties. He it also well qualified to serve as a witness in the matters of which he here testifies. His letter, you will perceive, has been drawn Out by one from me. It is our practice to call, from time to time, upon our teachers and superin tendents for reports of their progress, and in my last requisition I took the liberty of including Mr. Tomlinson. Ha is the fint to respond, and this is his report. It speaks for itself. The significance of his statements is obvious, and comment is unnecer sary, but I would direct attention to the argument for emancipation underlying what he says of the nevem' inereased punt:runt The artleler, now multiplied ten-fold, which the negroei buy, 00121 e from the Plorth. "The money, which they pay for them comes into Northern tills. The more money they make the better able will they be to buy our goods. Emancipation gives us a_ new market, and a home market at thst. For the products of Northern in dustry and ingenuity we shall hereafter have four million new customers ! Verily, " (1-odllneas bath the promise of the life that now is, sr well as of that which is to come." Yours, truly, J, M. Mclllal. sp. unixNA,.s. v., April 10. 1864. DEAR MR. MoKriA : I have yours of the 21 inst., requesting a statement of facts, bearing upon the progress of the freedmen in this department. You say that the question is eon asked, both at home and abroad, '' What astir of the progress of freedM'en VI To us, w g in the midst of thet evi dences,l64o2, the 41 . seems superfluous. Yet, sup pose it ought to nd must be answered. The first fact to Mob I would call. attention is this: In August, 1662, when I first same interth.o de partment, nearly the whole colored populatn was drawing rations from the Government; at tge time I think not more than five hundred persons draw rations from month to month. I include in this es timate refugees and those that would be paupers under any airounattancee. Misnumber is constant ly diMinisbing, and brthe end of the season there will be none entitled to i' rations" except the desti tute old and infirm parsons, and we hope to have es tablished, before that time, a system of taxation that will insure the support of the poor and infl:m Without any aid from Government. Last year -four plantation' ware purchased and worked by thefreed men for themselves. The " Rey nolds " place produced over four thousand dollars worth of cotton, besides a plentiful provision crop Alter paying all their expenses, the people on this place have a very handsome balance to commence the year with, The " James Tripp" place did pro portionately as well, but I cannot trust my memory to give exact figures, ano cannot get them in time for the steamer. Ike ow that no one person on the place received less than fifty dollars as his share, while most of the shares ran over one hundred dollar., and some as high as two hundred dollars. Whim, also, besides a large provision crop. The "Inlet" place, Owned and worked by Harry McMillan, pro. duced thirteen hundred and tlfty•elght dollars , worth of ginned cotton. The bulk of this cotton was raised by the labor of Harry, his wife, and two daughters, with the ate of a mule and plow. Harry ma for his plantation, buys necessary stook, in cluding cotton gins, &0., and has left a handsome balance to season the gear with. The "Edgerly" place, on Port Royal Island, did fully as well as either of the above. The people on that place not only raised a crop of cotton, which paid them all a largo dividend, but in addition to this they rained on their own land twelve hundred pounds of ginned cotton for the Rev. Dr. Peak, he, of course, paying for the labor; and they also paid to Mr. Hitchcock, a gentleman fromt New York, who was a Government superintendent in their neighborhood during last season, a bale of cotton (equal to $400) as compensation for hie advice and assistance; which leads some of us to think that they either overrated his services or that they made more money than they anew how to use. The " Edgerly" people have had lumber brought from the North, and having divided up their land, are building houses upon their Several lota. - Thus far those that worked for themselves. Now for those that worked for other people. Axithony and Venue, laborers on the " Capt. John Tripp Corner,” place Et. Helene, received $194.50, exelm. 1 sive of their provision crop. Anthony is over 60, and Venus over '7O years old. Frank and two caughtere, girls of sixteen and eighteen Year', of the same place, received $164.68. Cato, wife. and daughter, of the Robert Fulton place, received $lBO. The following amounts were received by persons on the "Coffin Point" place : Aaron and Judy, $136.48; Abel and family, $21067; Amaretta and family, $336 24; Leah and Peter,s99 38; llnckliss and Phallic $l7B 32 ; Frank anfamily, $181.93 ; George and family, $174 60; Miller and family, $188.67. There are reverel other families receiving amounts ranging from $6O to $lOO. This, of course, is inde pendent of their provision crop. On the "Pella. WWII" Island plantation, each hand will average over fifty dollers, ant it will be remeetbared that these cases, as well as numerous others that I might cite, are not the result of high wages, though the wages were fair, but of industry on the part of the laborers. Atter this statement, and that made by Sir. nilbrick, that during the past season he paid out twenty thousand dollars ($20,000) as wages to the people on his places, it will not be disputed that the people have worked industriously and earned a large amount of money. The next quaff lion is, are they thrifty and provident in the Ilaa of its In my opinion they are. Let me state some facts, which will, I think, sustain that opinion. When the "instructions" authorizing the " pre caption" of laud came ;limn here, over eight thou sand dollars were at once deposited, with parties apppointed to receive it, by the colored people. This, of course, did not take in anything like all the money that would have been forthcoming, had the people felt sure that by to doing they would have secured the land. They had been deceived too oaten, and, to use their own phrase, they "couldn't trust," At the sale of the town of Beaufort, a short time ago, a large proportion of the purchsees were made by colored men, many of them paying the whole amount down, while others bought with the soldiers' privilege, one•fourth down. Those pur chases were not made for 'a song, either, I can assure you. At the land sales which commenced on the 16th of February, the same evidence of thrift and industry on the part of the pm. le was manifested. Of color*, however, they could not compete with white men, who had come down here prepared to give the most fabulous prices for land. Still, in come instances the freedmen were secerseful in securing their land, paying in some. gam as high nes2o per sere. In theme cruet: i n( e - same Boy armlet all theiy,oweed. and bee. few instances, I believe, they, b9ttowed, On those laedatecorded to be sold to the people, although not Yet sold to them, they are at wok for themselves. They are very de sirous to secure animals to help them work their land. At the'recent sales of chattel property on the different plantationa, the ability of the freedman dos again manifested. Horses, mules, and cowl were bought by them quite freely, at very high prices. They gave more for them than their friends thought beat, but our appreciation of their necessity was probably not as great as theirs. In mehing this estimate of the material progress of the freedmen in tits department, I have not put referred to the change that is slowly but surely going on in their domestic habits. Hitherto their diet has been of the simplest and most meagre kind—corn and po tatoes, varied occasionally by a piece of bacon, some oysters, or fish. Now they buy habitually flour, mimes, bacon or pork, beef, sugar, rico, tea, and coffee. These articles, at the present high prices, take a great deal of money, and this should be taken into account in speaking of their wages. Then, in the matter of clothing, it should be remembered that the majority of the people have had to get a complete outfit; for at the time their masters left, even the usual pittance of clothing had not yet heenedoled out to them, The re ugees from other places left everything.behind them, and have literally had to commence life anew. Eighteen months ago such a thing as a kerotene lamp, (even a candle.) could not be seen in a negro cabin ; now they are frequent, not to say o,)lntfil,il, sights. SO I might go on through the whole catalogue of mate rial wants, and the same indications of progress would be found. The educational orogen of the freedmen is eo dependent upon their material wel fare, that to prove the one is to settle the question ' With regard to the other. The schools are always largely atteeded, and when all the drawbacks are considered, the result so far attained can only be de scribed by one word—marvellous. -There are, of Collier, auy number of vices and weaknesses in the character of the freedmen that must yet be up opt ed; and a COnteMplation of these le sometimes very (discouraging. Tile existence of such characteris tics, however. sill right minded person will take for granted; and it is our business to show that there are counter-tendenmea in their character and con dition, which now modify, and will eventually con trol them. Truly yours, REUBEN TOMLINSON. Not Less Sanitary for being Christian. [With the publication rends letter, from a cler gyman, we desire to close our column. to the unne cessary controversy between the friends of two invaluable organizetions.—En. Panes.] To the Editor of The Press: Sin: A communication appeared in The Press of Cesterday (April 19) with the caption of Not emus hristian for being Sanitary," regretting that the friends of the Christian Cummiesion should manifest any disposition to interfere with the efforts that are in progress to obtain funds for the Sanitary Com mission, using, at the shale time, a specious argil went seeding to damage and lessen the influence of the operations of the Christian Commission. The author of the article in question, who "is widely and highly respected among earnest Chris tiana and philanthropic men," has manifestly taken an incorrect view of the work and doings of the Christian Commission—both on the battle-field and among the sick and wounded in the hospitals—or lie has utterly misconceived the purpose for which this benevolent and truly catholic national organization was brought into being. The writer concealed that the Christian Commis sion is in sympathy with the moral and religious wants Of our poble army 5 that " they have done, and are doing, a good work, anti the testimonials to their beneficent deeds, which have been widely cir culated, are gratifying to every loyal °bristled' heart." Then he asks, " Whyrieek to diminish the merits, or embarrass the efforts of the Sanitary Commission, whose purpose is as benevolent, and, surely, not less important, than the othespl Is i s by no means certain that any effort has bsen put forth brany friends of the Christian Commission to " end:terra* the efforts of the Saniesey Commis sion." Bather, "from the spirit and teeor of the communication of yesterday, does it appear that the gentleman who nee thus written, and who seeks to hide from the public eye the feet that the Christian Commission, wish five times as many delegates on the field at Getty shurg, and who to-day have more men and extensive facilities to reach the Army of the Potomac, in case of Battle, than any other organization in the land, might feel that the opposition is directed lowara them, rather than emanutieg from them. The fourth paragraph of the communication is couched in the following words: "The Christian Commutlien has its appropriate plaee and work; the Sanitary Commission occupieseanother, and, at least, equally important sphere. The former con cerns licell rather with the spiritual than the tem. poral wants of the suffering, and the latter with the temporal rather than the spiritual." Who, at a glance, does not perceive that these words of the author of the communication in quo& tion tend to the belief that the work of the Christian Verne:limien is only Christian, and that the work of the :military Commission is purely for the physical succor and relief of the needy, and wounded soldier? No one doubts that the Sanitary Commission has done, is doing, and will continue to do, a great and good work for the temporal welfare of our brave and patriotic soldiers. But is it just to diegtiin, if not wholly to ignore, an important part of the work and operations of the Christian Commission, as designed in the formation and abundantly carried out in the workings of this organization? The Christian Coco mission has most liberally and very generally afford ed instant tehef to the naked, hungry, and perishing soldiers of our army ; always on the battle-tield, and frequently on the camp-ground and in the hospitals' What are the duties of tee great and good men who have promptly and gladly been the representa tives of this Christ-like commission? Has it nen to visit battle-fields, camp-grounds, and hospitale, to "insist upon giving the soldier tilted or a news paper" only, regardless of the obviously pressing and most urgent need of sanitary assistance? Not so. When needed, they have given, PIHST. the food, the cool WO of water or lemonade, the cup of tea, beef tea, puddings, jellies, fruit., oranges, and also stimulants, when ordered by the army surgeons. Their instructions to the delegates to the field in clude, among others, "the supply of field-hospitals with such clothing, bedding, and stores as their ne cessities require ; the distribution of stores and pub lioationa to all in the camps, officers end men ; aiding the men with paper, envelopes, and stamps to write to their friends, and writing for them in cases requiring it ; and getting or doing anything whatever which may benefit them. These are Chief amongst the ways to be embraced by , the delegate " The writer of this communication knows whereof he affirms. He was one among the many hundred. of unpaid delegates who, on the bloody field of Get tysburg, day alter day, assisted in alleviating the pains of the wounded, binding up their wounds, clothing them with new and clean linen, .washing the feet of the exhausted soldiers, and placing upon them new socks, knit by the soft and fair hands of Christian women, (many of them the wives of tiler gymen) Then followed "those ads of love and charity which appeal to the strongest sympathies of our nature." Hour after hour, by day and night, did the delegates of the Christian Commission ad minister to the corporeal necessities of the lace rated and bleeding soldiers, followed by the soothing and blessed truths of the religion of-gesui Christ. The combination of the two-fold blessings, tempo ral and spiritual, makes the Christian Commission pra eminently valuable to our brave soldiers and gallant sailors after the sanguinary battles in which their garments and bodies have been roiled in blood. "God Almighty bless you; you come to us not only like the Good Samaritan, but like ,To sus Christ him self," were among the numerous pathetic expres sions of our soldieries the delegates of the Christian Commission noiselessly pursued their blessed work on the gory battle-field of Gettysburg. Nearly two year. of experience in the army, amid the din, havoc, and blood of seven battles, oonvinoei the writer of this letter not merely of the peotiliat Illness and objcct of the Christian Commission to comps's the immediate wants of our brave and Inf. fering men, but that the delegates to whom has been entrusted the work of distributing the food, clothing, wines, and delicacies which a grateful people have so generously given, has been judiciously and faith fully bestowed. To question their fitness for the holier work of this heaven-sent minion would be as ungenerous as it is unnecessary. As, therefore, the sanitary and the religious work are combined in the operations of the Cann - tan Commission, it is the conviction of the writer of this letter that Christians are bound to prefer the channel to communicate their benefactions to our soldiers and sailors which this organization ad hap pily furnishes. Is it not an inevitable conclusion to which all must come, that the Christian Commission is not less sanitary far being Christian, any more than the Sani tary Commission is "not less Christian for being sanitary 1" Shall a national organisation, whose headquarters are in Philadelphia, and whose treasury is empty, while the Sanitary Commission, whose headquar ters are in New York, and whose treasury has been supplied With millions or dollars, be ins longer without the means to parry on its beneficent and Godlike work? Surely, Christians and patriots will respond quickly and liberally, that the two-fold work of swing for the bodies and blessing the souls of our soldier, and sailors may not - be hindered. J. E. C. PHILADELPHIA, April 10, 1661. The City Cars. To the Editor of The Press Sin : Allow me to expose a game that is now being played by the conductors Of the city railroad ears upon lithe Messengers. Yesterday, on the Fif tenth street road, many of the passengers desired exchange tickets, for which they were obliged to pay nine and ten cents each. The conductor not feeling inclined to return the change, a lady spoke of this imposition, and was insultingly told by the gentlemanly (I) con ductor that she might 14 get out if it didn't suit her." I know not into whore pockets these extra pennies go—possibly the company's tressury—but most pro bably they are considered a -conductor's perquisite, and are never returned to the employers. Are not the conductors obliged to make change for small cur rency, and cannot the paesengens demand an ex change ticket and their proper change 1 or are the railroad companies too mean to furnish pennies for change, and oblige the travelling public to submit to this stealing extortion 1 • This system of fraud is not a single exception ; it moms daily it happened in five instances yester day in one ear, from the Baltimore depot to Chest nut street, and is practiced particularly by the Fit teenib street line upon strangers visiting this city by the Baltimore, Wilmington, and Philadelphia Rant oad.

PARDONING DRIBUTERS some few days ago, a soldier, confined upon Ga.- vernoVa Island, was tried by court martial upon the charge of a double desertion, found gully, and sem tenoed to be shot to death. In official circles, the condemned is said to have been a prominent "Dead Rabhit,” and a maxi of no peculiar value to the army. General Dix approved of the Sentence' and on Friday last it was to have been carried into axe. oution. Unfortunately,.however. a despatch from Washington suspended the order, and (his prorate ing•patriot has escaped being carefully shot in so cordance with the general order issued to that Went. Some of General llisee staff ars rather in dignant, claiming that discipline will be at an end, if privates are allowed to desert over twice a month. It is stated that the General, in view of this fact, is about undertaking a coup d'aat, the particulars of which are at present contraband. INFANTILE AMUSEMENTS On Saturday afternoon a most unique and unpre cedented entertainment was given at Nib Gav den, ill aid of the Sanitary Fair. It consistedof Mr. Fitzhugh Ludlow's version of "Oinderell,," and was performed by masters and misses from the first fated. lies. Mr. Dodworth, Mrs. Fremont, and Mr. Lud. low undertook the main responsibility of the affair. Naturally enough, the house was distended by a flounced and jewelled audience, Which was intent upon observing the antics of the rising generation. The performance was an unqualified success. None of the children cried, and many of them eclipsed the efforts of some of the adult actors whose occupation they thus temporarily usurped. The affair had the effect of nonplussing some of the dismal critics who wear umbrageous bats and impending heads of hair. One calls it a ' , salad of rainbows,” The Sanitary Fund will be augmented by some three thousand dollars, the gross proceeds of the entertainment.

To the Editors of The Evening Post : By the Fulton to. day I have received and read, for the first time, all your articles concerning (some what) Florida affairs—but more partioularly con cerning myself. You assail me professionally and personally. Now, so far as the character of my military service is touched I may say that you will find it not un kindly referred to in the reports of not a few battles, and in some of these reports I am credited with eon. siderable more intelligence end skill than you have been willing to accord me. But the reputation of a soldier is not based on the opinions of gentlemen of your profession nearly so strongly as upon those of mime ; and by these last, only, am I content to be judged. There are a few points, however p upon which it Is proper you should be correctly informed First. You state that I was once sent from the Department of the South, by General Hunter, for "unruly conduct and language. ,3 Your information here was worse than imperfect; it was simply un true. I left the department upon my own applica tion, upon that solely, and for entirely different causes than differences with General Hunter. Second. You assert that I "planned and urged" the assault on Fort Wagner of the 18th of July last. That is much more credit than I deserve. I had too vteadfaatly advocated. as a principle, that en. trenchments defended by the rifle bad not been suc cessfully assaulted, in this war, to urge or to plan this assault as an exception. Secessionville and its lesson were too close at hand to be forgotten. But this assault was virtually successful. Our men entered the work, Aeld a part of it for hours, took prisoners from the garrison. And before at tributive; any failure to me, would it not have been well for you to have learned the whole truth from the few who know it (end very few know the entire facts concerning any engagement whatever), before charging me with so many personal, politi cal, and military crimes, because there was final failure? . - Briefly, your statement concerning my connection with that assault is utterly incorrect. Third. For my opinions upon nonprofessional mat ters, I presume the public oarea very little. But as you positively state that lam an habitual con temner of the race" (colored)—also of "negro troops," and a "virulent proslavery man," I am justified in pronouncing you quite as wrong as upon the preceding points. Pro slavery sentiments—even in a moderate form—/ never entertained. But I de spise and scorn the hypocritical and sanctimonious philanthropy of some who are fattening —person. ally, pecuniarily, and politically—upon the wrongs of the black, but who have been very careful never to set him an example on the battle-fold.

To the Editors of Me Evening Post: Please allow me, through your columns, to correct an error which I find by perusing 'your paper of the ultimo, under the heading of „ General Seymour and the Battle of Olireteel" in which yOU say " his contemptuous treatment of Robert Small, the gal lant colored pilot who brought the steamer Planter out of the harbor of Charleston, and who is one of the heroes of our war, has already been recorded in this paper." Through all courtesy to your paper and justice where justice le due, I must say that, from the first day of my arrival within the Union lines, General Seymour has always shown me the greatest regard, whether in public or private, inquiring how I was or if I was in need. Shortly atter turning the Planter over to the 'United States Government, General Seymour sent for me, and, after several interrogations, ordered me to have my name entered in Colonel pilot list, a position for which I am much indebted to him, and which I occupied until taking command of this steamer. Never was there atime when with Gen. Seymour, or any of his aids, that I was treated contemptuoua ly or unkindly.

Kuntz had saved some me nay for the express purpose of sending for his family to corn over from the old country to hie new home. He stoutly denied having any cash, but the fiends, not believing him, or perhaps knowing that he did have some money, deliberately took down a wood saw, which was hanging up in the cabin, and cut his lett leg three times below, and four times above the knee with the saw. Loos of blood, pain, and agony, Made hits poor tallow insensible, and he was unable to tell where the money was concealed. His man gled body was found next day, life extinct. A boy who lived with him succeeded in making his escape, terror-stricken, to give the alarm- After leaving Kuntz's, the gang went to an adjoining American farmer, whose name I was unable to learn, and not succeeding in their demands for money, they de stroyed everything in and about the place, took the rase out, and literally out his head off. All of this is vouched for by the whole neighborhood. "One n otorious 'member of this same gang, Wilcox, was wounded and taken prisoner by a seouting party from this poet, on the 201 n of March, and he still re mains unguarded near Hickory Hill, the bush whackers retreat, and, as his wounds are not dan gerous, it is the general belief that some of these line mornings he will join his old aisaociatea in arms.” SAFETY OF DE. LIVINGSTONB.—The last foreign mail settles the question of the safety of Dr. Living stone, the African explorer, who was reported to have been killed by the natives on the Zambesi. The British war sloop -Rapid has brought a let ter from Bishop Tozer, dated at Murchison Falls (at the Luabo month of the Zambesi river), on the 21st of December, which states that Dr. Livingstone had come back from his expe dition up the Celli:AU, and arrived at the foot of the Murchison Falls in November, and they intended to come down the river as soon as the wa• ter rose sufficiently to get the Pioneer down. Dr. Liviogstone and the Bishop and the party were well in health. The mission party also intended to leave the country. as it appeared an - unauitable field, and would return to England by the Cape. The Bishop and one of his clergymen, however, were to visit the Governor of Mozambique. These were all the con tents of the Dishop's letter. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL• THE MONEY MARKET.
