Certainly, the. Mississippi, river and its surround.
ings must be an interesting subject to you all. Was.
it not along itsoeurse that our Lieutenant General
made himself famous.l. - And not he stelae, truly—
for many, many others, whoml leavelto history to
mortal ize, made its region, their scene of glory. Bat,
Ifsui3pect, no.mere eventful battles will be foughtin
its neighborhood. Guerillas only are lett to occa
sionally tiro into - steambbats and then rush back
into the woods. l i nt the places on the Mississippi
(" cities " they are flatteringly styled by the South,
erners) that have falloff into our hands have booome
curiously altered. Let me tell you something about
them, commencing at Cairo, Illinois, whore the
Lower Blissiasippl and the Ohio rivers meet.:
Cairo Wlll, iR time, become a place of Latch im
portanCe. ,At present it Is a distressingly vile hole:
small, always muddy (because it is shaped like a
„begin, and every rain hoods it); a series of board
walks as a substitute for pavement aeries of
straggling huts for houses, ands Crowd of straggling
gentlemen in search of their fortune for inhabitants.
Let me sail away from Cairo in a little steamboat
which has been my home for more than %year.
The weather is pleasant, the shy blue, and the
water bubbles amiably away iron:l...our prow, so that
if I were a German, I might Bit there and think of
some mystic legend of the old Friderland ; as it is, I
thought of Pongee's " Undines" Passing Colurn
hus, the first port below Cairo (a distance of twenty
miles), we continue rapidly dawn theiriver, our boat
being the fastest stern-wheeler on the Mississippi.
A change in the scenery is now perceptible. The
shores consist of different growths of cotton wood,
Which springs up on every sand bank that is formed
by the constant change of channel in the Father of
Waters. Away stretch these monotonous shdres
all the way down to Natchez, where they begin to im
prove, and the sugar-houses and pleasantly-located
plantations greet the eye until MI arrive at New
Orleans.
Memphis, Tennessee, is the next tols.ce, a distance
of 250 miles from Cairo. It may really be called a
city, and a pretty one at that. Its buildings are
handsome, its streets Wean, and its appearance
flourishing. General Dana, Commanding the mill.

may add on the authority of an able officer. There

Well, we Have taken wine with the generale, and
looked around hopefully when we saw how well
things were goring; and now we are off again.'

every point on the river, are colored troops. In
deed, I cannot think I am wrong when I say the
Miesikippr hi guarded admirably by them. Under
proper ofileest, and, Indeed, even under incompe
tents, they fight with a bravery and success which
can leave no doubt of their efficiency. Let mt.. re

Oi/ANGE OD OOMMAEDBRB
Brigadier General George F. Shepley has been re
moved by General Ord, and Brigadier General Gor
don placed in his position. This gives great satis.
faction to the friends of civil law, to whish Shepley
has been bitterly opposed. A. mass meeting of citi
zens will be held this evening to give expression to
their opinion - In relation to civil law. His Brett•
lousy Governor F. H. Plerpont will preside. The
Governor arrived in Norfolk on Thursday evening
last, and is busy with thd details necessary to a Um
rough organization of the civil government.
COTTON S.PBOULATOBE3
A singular circumstance connected with General
Butler's cotton speculation has oome to light. It
seems that the, chief of General Shoploy's staff, G.
ILlJohnston, resigned several months since to enter,
as Butler's chief agent, into the business of buying
cotton from the rebels in North Carolina. He
remand* * at this long enough to make over
two hundred and fifty thousand dollars as his share,
which he deposited in the First National Bank of
Norfolk. A few days ago the military commission
Instituted by General Grant to investigate the pro.
teedings of General Butler relatlife to cotton, got
wind of Mr. Tchnston. He heard that they would
call, upon him soon, but not intending to be outdone
by them do drew all his money from the bank and
decamped in the Baltimore boat. They telegraphed
to the authorities at Baltimore to arrest and sand
him back to Noifolk, but the shrewd Johnston did
,not go on the boat farther than Fortress Monroe,
where he took the Washington boat, and landed at
Annapolis. No one knows his whereabouts, although
he Is anxiodsly waited here. The commission has
proven that Butler received two-fifthsof all cotton
brought here, his brother-in-law ono -fifth, and
middle-men, of which Johnston was one, two-fifths,
the Government getting but one-half of that which
was rightfully dud it. Yon , may expect even more
astounding revelations than these.
THE LATE MTIRDICE
The murder of Mr. Boykin, to which I referred at
length in my last letter, is still involved in mys•
tery. No one knows anything about it, and despite
the energies of the Oovernment detectives there has
not been as yet the slightest trace by which any
identification of the assassin may be found. A large
reward has been offered by the citizens of Norfolk,
which at the present writing amounts to nearly one
thousand dollars. A subscription list has also been
started for the benefit of the widow and children of
the murdered man.

Storage of Coal Oil.
To the Editor of The Press:
SIR : I propose that whenever and wherever 6116
oil is stored In any quantity the place of storage
Shall be an excavation of sufficient capacity to hold
the liquid and prevent It flowing over adjacent
ground in case of fire.
The recent report, in some or our scientific jour..
nals, of a ooal•oll Ora lo a drnggistra= cellar having
been almost instantaneously subdued by proper
(although in that ease accidental) chemical agents,
suggests( the necessity of having such MOWS' at hand
wherever eoal oil is stored.
In France large flatbottomed Iron boaiSr or tasks
have been introduoed upon the rivers to. hold lir
flammable lignlds ; but should the contents take
lire, the intense heat developed will doubtlest warjo
and burst the aides of the venal, and suffer the
burning fluid to spread over the Surface of the
valor. G. j}

The correspondent of the London News
Says : ' , Monsieur J. Bonifsoo, whose literary name
X. B. Sainthiej is well known as the: author of
Placiola, , died here on the 22d of January. Pew
readeri can have forgotten his charming novel of
'Pleolobi which has become almost a household
book. M. Saintine was honorary president of the

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
There was a moderate activity for stocks of all kinds
Yeeterday,lthe chief inquiry. however, being for Go
vernment loans. The , gold intereet•bearing bonds are
moving steadily upward in-prioe 2 and the subscrita•
Lions to the seven and three-tenths per cent. loan last
week were $9,900,1 00. 0 ovenuneut has now determined
on the poliey,of leaning- no more paper currency, gold
interest-bearing bonds, and certificates of Indebted
ness. It Is stated, semi , ofticially, that the.receipte
from the seven and three tenths loan, and taxation, are
enrcient to-meet the ACCIallIg Government liabilitieq.
The 6.20 loan advanced yesterday selling at 110 K.
State and City loans were unchanged.. Company bonds
were moderately active at shont lest prices. tThe
marked feature of the share list was the advance
in Reading, which opened at about 543,” and sold up
steadily bi 56X, at which it closed. Camden and
Amboy sold at 145, a fruitier advance of 4 ; Borth Penn
sylvania Railroad sold at 27,t.i. and Itinehill at 56%
Bank stocks were Quiet, and there was little said in
canal or cord stock a The oils were more active, the
opening of the new public stock exchange (open board.)
giving a new impetus to the buying and. selling of this
description of stocks. Better Pekces in many instances
were obtainedat the public board than at the regular
board. At the latterValnut Island sold at 234. while
at the former, and' at the same hour, the same stock
sold at 2N.. Of passenger rat/roads, we notice sales of
Green aid Coates at 30 and Arch at 111% ; 65 was bid for
Second and Third ; 40 for Fifth and Sixth ; 44 for Beath
and iiieventh ; 45 for Chestnut and Walnut ; for
arch, and 23 for Girard College ; 99 was asked for

At the close of the JUL year the number of banks in
the Commonwealth was 18]. w.ith an aggregate capital
0f566,611,200. Thle was increased by this addition ob
&160, 000 to the capital stork of the Recl e te Bank. as
authorised the Legislature of 1864 , m int a total of
$66,991,2W. During th e year now en , however,
fiftY,-two banks (the names of which as. given in the
Appendix), with a capital amonntir.g to $21,80..700.
have surrendered their chatters and become national
institutions. Of the lahanks remaiaing, 49. hearing a

Of the fifty-two •tchich have surrendered their char

which propose to do so, ten areaosten banks .
Several of the banks that hogs been converted into
national inalitatione have increased their capital stork,
and others pronoae to do the same. Twenty five. new

Thus it appears that the whole n of banks: bosh
