PEAOIIOAX, insteuctios which will-work a revolution
in thiß department of education.
is might be expected, imitators of his system of Ac
tual Business Training are springing up in some of the
cities, but the various forms and blanks used in giving
instruction are so well secured to him by law, through
copyrights, that they can never meet with bnt Indif

and carried out so perfectly as here, under the super
vision of its author.
The Institution is patronized very largely by our most
eminent merchants, and not a few of the leading busi

salesmen. Two yonng men from this office, who have
just received their diplomas there, will re

put In practice at once the valuable InfoJmafion they
have acquired during their course there. Having

pall-bearers, preferred, "more properly, to
the funeral as the head of the offlaers of the State
Government. As the procession entered the vesti
bule of the brown, briot church, the congregation
rose instinctively and the bell In the tower began
to, toll, and all the church bells In the city joined It.
The cover was partially removed so that the faoe of
the dead was visible to a portion of the congrega
tion. Such a church seems fit to have been the
scene of many a historic and romantic funeral.
Along these aisles one can fancy a long procession
or the dead. The organ, above, certainly has a
death-note in it. The pulpit is the brother of a
sarcophagus- Aboutthe pillars wreaths are twined
Christmas wreaths. Only the vast swarm
of. ladles in the; galleries—a test of the decaying
strength of the stoutest oak—lessens the wonder that
these pillars have not stood so long. The service
begins. The congregation which listens to it con
sists of only a few of the vast throng who have
striven to enter. The pall-bearers, the near friends,
the officers of the State Government, of the insti
tutions of learning, and of the civic and other so
cieties with which Mr. Everett was connected, are
the ohier occupants, of the body of the church.
Ladies occupy the galleries exclusively. Not one
of all this favored concourse will soon forget the
tones in which the Bev. Dr. Walker nttered his
beautiful prayer.
An address was afterwards delivered by the Bev.
Mr. EUISm The services were closed by the singing
of the funeral anthem:
•' Their bodies are burled In the dust, but their
names live forever.”
It wag sot until after 3 o’clock that the coffin was
removed to the hearse outside, and the cortege, com
posed as follows,* began to move to the same sounds
of melancholy music, and tolling of bells, and firing
of minute-guns, that .had signalized Its arrival at
the church:

On all the thoroughfares along which this im

‘profoundly respectful, the nearest with uncovered
heads, had gathered to witness It. The sidewalks
overflowed beyond the curbs, the fences and door
ways, and balconies and wlnaowß, even tbe roofs In
some Instances, were crammed with a, living host,

people than did this music and theso-betls that wall

Everett and Bonner.
The following is a copy of the last letter of Mr.
Everett sent to Mr. Bonner, of the New York
Ledger. Mr; Bonner says: “ Fifteen days before hlB
death we received the following note from him. it
is proper now that we should publish it. The sen
tence, 1 I do not wish these things published now,
but when I am gone you can affirm them on good
authority,’ seems almost prophetic
“My Dsak Bobbbt: * * I do, X assure you,
take great satisfaction in the thought that, through
your columns, I speak to so large an audience, and
occasionally with good effect. What are four thou
sand persons In Fandeil Hall compared with the
numbers who read the Ledger 1 I often receive let
letters of acknowledgment. * * * * *
“ With respect to the French mission, it has been
occasionally mentioned to me, never by me, except
at this moment, in writing to you. Unless our minis
ters now abroad are recalled, It is not likely that
Massachusetts, whleh has now three full ministers,
will be allowed to have another. Even if they
should come home, there are other Massachusetts
men who will do what I shall not/seek the place,
by themselves or friends. In fact, lam very doubt
ful whether I should accept It if offered to me. I
have been ten years in Europe. lamin my 71st
year. I don’t want the salary. I refused two
years ago to go abroad on a confidential mission
to all the leading Courts, with leave to stay as
long as I thought expedient In each capital; to
have a secretary and an allowance equal to the
highest salary. It Is true I was not to have a
regular commission; but I was to have a plenary
credential from the President, and a letter from the
Seoretary of State to all the ministers of foreign
affairs. Having declined this, when urged upon me,
you oan judge whether I am very eager to go abroad,
or very likely to solicit anyoffloe. I do not wish
these things published now, but when I am gone
you can affirm them on good authority. In the
meantime, my moderation is not likely, on this oc
casion, to be put to tbe test; for there is not the
least probability that the office will be offered me,
'* *' * ♦ * * ' £
“Ever sincerely yours, Edwakd Evbektt.

The Boston Advertiser says: “ Frequent allusion
has been made' to the lectures on Public Haw which
Mr. Everett was preparing to deliver at the law
school at Cambridge. It was his Intention to have
delivered, them during the term which has just
closed ; hut his progress In their preparation was
slower than he had hoped, and six weeks ago he
had finished but one of them. He had heeif steadily
engaged on them'during the winter, however, and
declined almost all invitations, that he might com
plete this work.”
Lrviso ih Richmond.— The Examiner of the
17th says: The restaurants and drinking saloons
advanced their prices on Saturday, putting the
rates a peg higher. The advance, they allege, Is ne
cessitated Oy the great rise is the prices; of flour and
provisions in the market. ‘ The bill of fan in saloons
that lormerly cost sio now eost $l5, and'no drinks
are to be had under *5. . Perhaps it is well that the,
price of living has come to be defined at last. The
thermometer oan go no higher than 90 •, the curren
cy may go to zero, but the charge cannot go above
blood heat. This may as well bo understood first as
last. *

IMPORTANT LETTER FEOM HAVANA—ANEW REBEL
PORT TO BE OPENED.
The following letter from our consul at Havana

■'Yorkr®?-' '
SIE ffThe,steamer Coquette sailed from this port
on Thursday last; the 6th Inst. From Information
communicated to me yesterday I believe she has
none to one of the keys called “ CayodeSal,” about
fifty miles northeasterly of Cardenas, to be fitted up
as a piratical cruiser. It will be well to warn mas
ters.of vessels sailing from your port to be on their
guard against her. ,
She ls about two hundred and twenty-five foot
long, has two smoke-stacks, lies low In the water,
and is painted a light color—almost white. ■
The secessionist® here are making efforts to stake
out the harbor of St. Marks, on the western, coast of
Florida, as a new port for blockade-runners! so that
they may enter with steamers lit the night time.
I am, very respectfully, your obedient servant,
William T. Miner,
Ur S. Consul General at Havana.
The Presidential Reception.
Mr. McCullough,'of the Cincinnati Commercial,
imitates Mr. Jenkins In the following unique letter
from Washington:
Washisotok, Jan. 15,1865.
I 'fina that Jenklntsm Is a very popular style of
journalism, and I fear that unless Iretorm my ideas,
on this subject, Iwlllbe.plaoed on tha list of crasty
bachelors. So I have concluded to wheel Into line,
and take the popular chute. I hare, on several oc- ,
easions, been guilty of sneering at the habit of pa- I
railing In public journals the articles of costume
worn by “beautiful and accomplished ladles,” at
the bal masque, or the President’s levee—and
I am convinced now that this was all wrong,
and I cheerfully make the amende. But I
doubt If It Is exactly fair, while chronicling
the details of a lady’s apparel with the faithfulness
of a Jenkins, to omit entirely to mention the articles
Which lend grace and charm to the gentlemen who
attend such festive gatherings. So rhave collected
the material to hand down to posterity, with historic
accuracy, the oostume of the. lords of creation at the
last Presidential reception. Mr. J*—n S—m—h,
(I must adopt the regular Jenkins style of Initials
only,) wore a coat and a pair * of pantaloons that
would do honor to any tailor’s shop The latter
were a little too long, and It was the general Im
pression that the charming wearer would have
looked better bad he rolled them up a little.
Mr. j—n—s had on a hat of exquisite material.
The block was UnportedJCor him specially. Ho also,
like Mr. S h, wore a coat and pantaloons. The
former was of beautiful texture, and had pockets
behind. , •
Mr. J—n—son Was attired very fashionably la
black broadcloth—coat and pants, together with a
vest, which had two pockets and a convenient place
forawatoh.
Mr. B—b—sen wore a shirt of beautiful material,
plaited In the bosom, and embroidered
' all round. It had just been Ironed, andimparted to
the wearer a very unique appearance. •
Mr. B- was remarked for the exquisite pair of
shoes he had on. They had just been half-soled,
and made delightful music.
Mr. p was splendidly attired, but the article
which attracted most attention. was his pocket
handkerchief, which was hemmed in a remarkable
manner. &. slight cold in the head caused Mm to
use it frequently. ' „
Mr. H- was the cynosure of all eyes, on ac
count of' the beautlful and costly buttons ion MS
pantalobM.'waicbdlfrerearroxu-allbtliersln.balag
“flaps.” .
which must have oost'an Immense" sum!
UDlversallj admired. • »
Mr. S wore a ring on Ms'little finger, and tie
enffs ol Ms sMrt were charmingly held In tie em
brace of mother- of-peal.
Mr. W, — added, to a very oostly apparel, a pair
of stockings that attracted much attention. They
were upheld by India-rubber garters of the finest
finish.
Mr, R (the enterprising tallow-chandler) was
much admired for the snavity of his manners and
the buttons of Ms vest.
Mr. O , (In the petroleum business,) was beau
tifully perfumed with a hew article of bear’s grease.
He' smelled very sweet.
Mr. , (In the dry-goods line.) wore a cravat
wMch was tied with mush taste, and a standing col
lar which fitted Ms finely formed neck with great
tightness.
Mr. I , (the celebrated spruce beer dealer,)
was the observed of all observers, on account of Ms
boots, wMch were the finest calfskin, and were said
to be genuine rights and lefts.
Mr. K , (In the orange and peanut way,) wore
a costly pair of woolen mittens, knit expressly for
the occasion.
Mr. M took the palm for moustaches. They
were in a high state of waxation.
'Mr. TU made a very graceful appearance In
plaids. What was chiefly remarkable about him
was the beautiful color of his shirt, which was of the
finest brown mnslln.
Mr. N ’s finely moulded form was setoff togreat
advantage by a pair of suspenders of the finest tex
ture, and a beautifully-starched “ dickey.” .
Mr. V was splendidly attired. In addition to
a coat and vest, he wore a pair of pantaloons, which
were buttoned up with neatness and precision.
Mr. 0 was the admired of all admirers, on ac
count of a new and rare article of shoulder-brace 1
and an exquisite truss wMch he wore.
I have endeavored In the above to be accurate and
faithful, as a narrator of passing events, deemed by
the general public to beoftransoendenttmportanoe.
I trust I have not sinned In omission or commission
against any of the gentlemen who were present on
the occasion, but that I have given to eaoh the
prominence to whloh he was entitled.
Hebei Prisoners.
(Prom the Hew York Tribune ]
The Daily News, a day or two since, returned to
the charge of cruelty to rebel prisoners In our hands,
and challenged ns to the proof that its statement Is
not true. For Its original allegation It relied on the
evidence of an anonymous correspondent; to sus
tain Its reiteration It brings forward a letter from a
rebel officer In Canada, and another from a lady in
Cincinnati, who does not see fit to attest to the
truth of her statement by writing under her own
came. So far as the rebel offloer is concerned It Is
simply a question whether he lies or not; as to the
others, until they let the public know who they are
and hew far they are entitled to credence, their evf
deuce Is no evidence at all. The rebel officer, who
says he was confined at Johnson’s Island, asserts
that the prisoners, not being permitted to purchase
food, were compelled to live upon such rations as
the authorities allowed them, and of these he says:
“These rations consisted of a small slice of a
baker’s loaf of sour bread, twice a day, uniformly
. short In weight of the appointed allowance; a small
piece of very poor beef about three Inches square
once a day; a bit of salt fish, about one-elxth of a
lake white fish; one pint or rice or hominy to every
six men, once a week, and no vegetables whatever,
nor any beverage but water.”
Such, according to Ms statement, was the fare at
Johnson’s Island, as he knows bom Ms own ex
perience ; and, as he knows from the testimony of
others, a similar state of things exists at the Rook
Island Barracks. Is this true 1 Here Is a copy of
the official cifonlar sent out from the office of the
commissary general of prisoners at.WasMngton, In
June last, prescribing the rations to be Issued to
rebel prisoners:
Oiboth.au.—l. By authority of the Secretary of
■War, the ration to bo Issued to prisoners of war, as
announced In the circular from this office, dated
April 20,1804, is hereby modified as follows, to .go
into Immediate effect, viz:
notion,— lo oz. pork or bacon (In lien.of fresh beef).
It oz. fresh beef, 16 oz. flour or soft bread, 11 oz hard
bread (in lien of Hour or soft bread), 16 oz. corn
meal (In lieu of flour or soft bread), lfits, beaus
or peas, or 8 fis. idee or hominy, 1 fis. soap, 3 qts.
vinegar, fis. salt to 100 rations.
Sugar ana coffee will be Isßued only to the sick or
wounded, on the recommendation of the surgeon In
charge, at the rate of twelve (13) pounds ofTsugar,
five (6) pounds of ground, or seven (7) pounds of
green coffee; or one (1) pound of tea to the 100 ra
tions. This part of the ration will be allowed only
for every other day.
11. The difference between the ratlonas above
established and the rations allowed by law to sol
diers of the United States army constitutes the
“ savings” from wMch 1b formed the prison fund.
W. HOVPMAU,
Col. sd U. S. Inf,. Com. Gen. of Prisoners. -
W. T. Habtihq, Asst. Adjt. Gen,
,1s this order obeyed t In the absence of evidence
we shonld rather assume that no officer In charge of
prisoners would venture to disregard it than that
anonymous statements, or the statements of one or
two rebels, whose, Interest It Is to falsify, are true.
But we arc not without evfdenae. We are assured,
by au offloer in the Rank Island Barracks, that the
ration list is followed there “tothe letter;” that
the quality of the food Is the same as that given
to the troops of the garrison; that the bread and
meat Issued is only two ounces less that that given
to those troops who, being on active duty, require
more, while most of the prisoners do nothing; that
the few who perform any labor have an extra ration
and ten cents aday; and that the bread used is baked
at the garrison, and Is the same as that supplied to
the tabieß of the officers. Dr. Ooolidge, the medical
Inspector, Halted Statu army, has recently visited
Rock Island, and reports “the hospitals In a very
satisfactory condition In every respect;” the number ■
of deaths for the week ending January 7th was only
28 among 7,6(0 prisoners, and most of these were
from smaU-pox.- So much for Rook Island. Before
ns Is a letter from an officer at Johnson’s Island;
“lam taking a descriptive list of the oompanyof
which I amroll oalle'r ’ (110 robs.), and the lightest
weight of any one man is 130 pounds, and he Is only
18 years of age. I wonder whether as good weight
can be shown in the reb’s prisons 1 They are all
comfortably clad In good .clothing, mostly furnished
by the United States; and some of the men have
three to six blankets In their bunks.”.
Now, will the Neim Sokno wletlga that It has been
misled, and give a place to this evidence In Us
columns 1 There are a great many people, and es
pecially those who have friends doomed to a linger
ing death In Southern prisons, who would rather re
joice that jthe News were oorreot Inlts statements,
and that our Government would mete to rebel,pri
soners preolacly that measure of suffering which Is
Inflicted upon our own men, But until -that sort of
retaliation is resorted to let the truth be told, and
the Government have the credit or discredit, which
ever it may b$ thought it deserves, of iwleniency.
A Nkjr DiaTorvnoit.—The following paragraph
appears In two Elohinohd papers aimultaneeosfy,
ana apparently from an official sonroe:
“We are requested to state that the Olnatee and
the Shenandoah are armed vessels of the Confede
rate States navy, and commanded by commissioned
officers of the Confederate navy. They are not < pri
vateers,’ equipped and armed 'by private parties;
but are regularly authorised by the Government.
To style them ‘privateers ’ subjects the officers and
crews to the risk, If caught, of being tried for their'
lives as pirates.”
The reeent military successes, pointing, as they do, to
an early return of peace, are producing their legitimate
effects upon the stock market Among the gold opera
tors they have created something akin to a panic. It is
in. Tain that the bulls of the market attempt to make
light of tbeencburaging intelligence which reaches us
from &U quarters of the South. ; The dawn of the bright
day* so long promised, would appear to be close at
hand, and this conviction is gaining strength everyday.
The disposition shown by the Sonthenipeopie. where the,'
presence of our armies insures protection In the avoyal
of their allegiance; the recent debates in the rebel Gon
gress, and the mournful bowlings of the rebel pressralT
'indicate a dissatisfaction towards the continuance ofj
the war, that cannot ftil atanearly day to breakdown
the violence of rebellion, andhasten the day of pettier
These facts are all appreciated by the operators in, gold .
as tr ell as the public generally, and hence the steady
decline is gold-Which we h&ve witnessed for the pa«t
few days. -Upon the mosey market the recent impori
ant military successes have a perceptible effect. There
is a general feeling that news may come any day very
materially affecting prices, and this produce* a disposi
tion to lend only where realization could be promptly
made. While* therefore,-there is an abundance of
morey on call, yet for loans the supply in limited.
The' stock market was very feverish and prises con
siderably depressed. Government loans were also
lower; there were sale* of the IfiSl loan at 110%, which
is a decline of 1; the five-twenties at 167, a decline of
2%;theten-fortieBatlGl%, a decline of %. State securi
ties were firm, the fives selling at 92%, and the war loan
sixes at 104 Cityeix€s_ were dull and lower; the mu
nioipal’eixes sold at 99%, ad« dine of%; the new at 97%,
a decline of %, and tae old at 94, a decline of %. Ther o
was very little demand for railway bonds* and prices
were weak; Pennsylvania Railroad second mortgage
declined & selling at 105; Little Schuylkill sevens
sold at 102%; Pittsburg sixes at 90; and Camden and
Amboy sixes of 5 83 at 100. The share list showed a con
tinued fall in prices; Bearing declined*%» selling at

sylvania Railroad was steady at 63%; Horrfatown
sold at 67)4- Bask stocks are very quiet, the only sales
reported being of Commercial Bank at 60, and Corn Ex
change at 60. Passenger railroads are very dull; Arch
street sold at 17, and Second and Third at 67 Canal,
mining, end oil stock* continue very doll, and prices
are moving downward.

Tlie Chicago Tribune says: ** Thera is no change in
money matters, and we have to report currency as
scarce and dose as ever. The decline in gold to-day
rendered the produce and provision market ratherdull,
and speculators were not so anxious to borrow as
formerly; hut otherwise there was no change in the
aspect of the market. The banks are discounting very
sparingly to.theii customers at 10 It cent per annum,
hut out tide operators are lending at 2@3 emit per
month to ready borrowers. The supply of Eastern ex
change continues very light, aid under ah active de
mand the market is very close and firm at par buying,
and H premium selling.’ 1

The subjoined la a copy of the financial measure in
troduced by Hr. Stevens on the 16 th last, , now under
jpnsideration in the House:
**JBe it enacted by the Senate and House of Repre
sentatives of the United States of America in Con
gress assembled:
• * That in l)eu of any bonds authorized to be Issued by
the first section of the act entitled *An act to provide
ways and means for the support of the Government, '
approved June thirtieth, eighteen hundred and sixty
four, that may remain unsold at the date of this act,
the Secrataiy of the Treasury may issue, under the
authority of Bald act, treasury notes of the description
and character authorized by the second section of said
act: Provided, That the whole amount of bonds autho
rized as aforesaid; and treasury notes issued and to be
issued in lieu thereof, shall not exceed the sum of four
hundred millions of dollars, and Such’treasury notoß
may he disposed. pf. for lawful money, or for any other
t»ttftjmryjoLoiespy certificates of indeotedness, or certifi -
cates of deposit issued under any previous act of Con
gress; and acch notea shall be exempt from taxation by
-CijsnoerStateor municipal authority.
two, remaining unsold to an amount not exceedingiour
millions of dollars, may be disposed of by the Secretary
of the Treasury in the United States, or, if he shall find
|t expedient, in Europe, at any time, on such twau as
.he may deem most advisable. And the Secretary of the
Treasury is further authorized to issue bonds of the
description issued under the authority of the act of
twenty-second June, eighteen hundred and sixty, in
Pursuant e of the notice for ‘proposals for loan.’ dated
eighth September, eighteen hundred and sixty, to sub
scribers to that loan for one per centum deposited under
said notice and not repaid: Provided, That the bonds
to issued'shall hear not more than five par centum inte
rest; And provided, further, That fractional amounts
be repaid in lawful money of the United Slates. ”
Section 2, of the set of June 30,1864, enacts as fol
lows relative to treasury notes;
‘’That the Secretary of the Treasury mai issue On
the of the United States, and in lieu of an equal
amountof bonds, authorized by the preceding- section,
and an a part of said loan, not exceeding two hundred
millions of dollars, in treasury notes of any denomina
tion not less than ten dollars. payable at any time not
exceeding three years from date,or. if thonght more ex
pedient, redeemable at an; time after three years from
date, and bearing interest not exceeding the rate of seven
and three tenths per con am, payable in lawful mo*
ney, at maturity, or, at the discretion of the Secre
tary. semi' annually. And the said treasury notes may
be disposed of by the Secretary of the Treasury, on the
best terms that can be obtained, for lawful money: and
such of them as shall be made payable, principal and
interest, at maturity, shall be a legal tender to the
• same extent as United states notes, for their face value,
excludi&ginteiest, and may be paid to any creditor of*
the United States at their face value, excluding
interest, or to any creditor willing to receive them
at par, including interest; and any Treasury notes
itsned under the authority of this act may be made con
vertible, at th» discretion of the Secretary of the Trea
sury, into any bonds issued under the authority of this
act $ and the Secretary of the Treasury may redeem and
cause to be canceliedand destroys d any Treasury notes
or United States notes heretofore issued under authority
. of previous acts of Congress, and substitute, in lieu
thereof, an equal amount of Treasury notes, each as
are authorized by this act, or of other United States
notes.”
It will be observed that the rumor that no more legal
tender currency is to be authorized is premature. The
proposed bill authorizes the issue of Such currency, but it
is to be presumed that Congress will insert a clause
prohibiting the new treasury notes-from being declared
a legal tender.

BOOTS AND SHOES —The trade of the past, like the
preceding week, has been a very quiet one There haa
been some trade with tfce jobbers, chiefly on orders, and.
mostly from the State of Pennsylvania. The assort
ments continue fair and prices firm There is some ac
tivity among manufacturers, who are employed chiefly
in filling orders for the city jobbers and for Western,
markets. Prices must necessarily be high in theapring.
owing to the hi|h rates of boot and shoe materials, and.
should the cost of production continue as high as it Is at
present (and we cannot see any prospect o' a change for
the better), with a more active market, prices will ora.
bablv be higher
