The London Times of January 31st hue a Stilted and sensational editorial on the capture of Fort Fisher and the failure of General Butler in the pre vious attempt. It shows its usual Irtiowledge of geography by locating Lowell in Connecticut. Thus it ears : "The order to this (Meer to return to his place of residence in peaceful Oonneotiont was a rebuke tinder whioh a soldier must keenly suffer." There is fame for General Butler I Alt his life long he has been representing Connecticut ! The candi date for Governor, the hero of the remise of Wash ington in April, 1861, the Military Governor of New Orleans, the "Beast" of Southern chivalry and the boast of Ward Beecher and the Fifth-avenue elite of Ifew York, now retires to hie home in peaceful Connectiontl Where Is Parton 1 Where are Mitch ell and Colton I When did Prussia join the Zoir verein 1 Verily, we think General Batter ought to tend his compliments and his card to the Times, with the "as home" nndersoored--Lowell, Maasa• chuaetti. The writer-of the Times, editorial comes nearer truth and showing a glimmering of sense when he says, in connection with the other topic, thelail of Fort Fisher“; "Thus, after long and la borious exertions and an expense equal to that in curred in many European wars, the Federals may be said, to have almost mumeeded in shutting in their enemies from communicating with the. Europeen world.” In London, recently, the OoMpllments,ry benefit to Mr. Paul Bedford, whiOlifiLied been for some time announced, took place at Druly-lane Theatre, tbe use of which had - kindly been granted by Messrs. Falconer and Ohatterton. The demonstration that took plaoe was of a kind that few could understand who are not aware of the esteem In which a veteran favorite is held , by the London public. Three short pieces, strongly cast, constituted the principal part of the entertainment in point - of time; but the die tinotive display of the occasion was a Da - piece, enti. titled "rani Bedford at Home," in which Mr. Buck stone officiated ae master of the ceremonies. The stage was occupied by an assembly which, we may. almost say, embraced the whole of the histrionio profession, and this was laced by a dense body of spectators, which apparently comprised the whole population of London. Mr. Buekstone'e office wad to introduce all the leading actors and actresses, one by one, to Mr. Paul Bedford, who resolved each with an appropriate compliment, besides delivering an address to the public. The.exeitement that pre. vaned °lithe stage and among the audience during these transactions is scarcely to described. Bev. Henry Ward Beecher has written to Mr. Garrison the following characteristic letter, pub lished In the Liberator of this week : BIZOOKLYN, Feb. 4, 1885. Mr Doan Mn. GARRISON : I have had the Lek. rater Sent to me free for several years on the prin ciple, I presume, that I needed it. So long as I vras in a state of nature, I consented to have a free gos pel preached to me. But, as I have made up my mind, at length, that slavery Is an evil and ought to be abolished, I suppose I can find no good reason for taking the Liberator without paying for it. Please find a check for en. I am very truly yours, H. W. Besot/En, The internal revenue for the month of Sanitary just past amounted to the enormous sum of s3li -076,902M—0ver a million of dollars a day including Sunday! And yet confessedly the machinery for Collecting this branch of the nation's income is im perfect and undergoing change. Vast as is that sum of internal revenue, daily and• monthly, how light a burden is it to the business of this rldh and vigorous nation! And with what patriotic Cheer fulness and acquiescence the people pay this tax to preserve their nation and to maintain democracy. A. letter has just been received at the Navy Department, from Sir William Armstrong, the well.known English gunmaker, in which he urges this Government to imitate the example of France and Russia, by manufacturing his guns. To this piece of scientific impertinence, Capt. Wise, of:the Ordnance Bureau, has• written a caustic reply, in which he tells Sir William that the Armstrong guns captured at Fort Fisher afford us the means of testing their supposed efficiency. Upon these guns was found an inscription, setting forth that they were a present from Sir William Armstrong to Jeff Davis. The CopperheaT papers have set up the hue and cry that President Lincoln °lend the door to peace by insisting that what action had been taken with regard to slavery should not be disturbed. Unfortunately for the theory that this was all that stood in the way of negotiation, Judah P. Denjamin, the rebel Secretary of State, declared, in his speech at Richmond, that ;I ourcommissioners sent to con fer with the enemy, went with a plea° of blank paper j elled with one word written by our President—' 4•VDR- P1IND)1170B. 1 " That settles the question of the terms on which the rebel leaders would have concluded peace ; and, unless the Copperheads are prepared to concede the independence of the rebels, they are shedding crocodile tears over the failure of negotia. Lions. This CoMmonwealth, as stated in the last mes sage of Governor Curtin, has commenced proceed ings against the Atlantic and Great Western Rail way Company, an organization which, however they may have violated the law, was the first to de velop the oil regions of Pennsylvania. It under stood that one of the charges against the road is that it has built branches without any authority. There is a bitter antagonism in the northwestern counties of our j tate between the corporation and the Lake Shore Road, but at the present time travel is so great that both are making fortunes for their mana- gers. A young lady, an Orphan, living and teaching school in 'Huntingdon county, a year ago received a letter from Virginia, that her brother, who was a soldier in the Union army, had been killed in battle. She hastened to the South, secured his remains, had them brought home and burled. Ever since, alone in the world and in sadness, she has mourned her dead kinsman. A week ago ehe received a letter from Andersonville, from her brother, who is alive and a pllsoner. Such Is the romance and the re. stilly of war. Richard Fox, Esq., has been elected presiden of the Mechanics' Bank of Harrisburg, in place of Philip Dougherty, deceased, and J. D. Dougherty was elected a director to supply Mr, Fox's place in the board. It is a singular coincidence that within the last three.years three of the four banking insti tutions of Harrisburg have lost their presidents. First, the Dauphin Deposit Bank; next, the Harris burg Baulk, and now the Mechanics' Bank. Two of the seleotmen of a certain town in Wind ham county, Vermont, have a sharp "eye to the main obano.." Being authorized to proonre mento apply to the oredit of the town, they secured two men, at the town's expense, as substitutes for them selves. The. story started In England and copied In this country, that two noblemen had a quarrel which resulted in the death of one of them by the fratrlol• dal hand of the other, 111 now said to be untrue. The London Morning Post, contradicting the report, states that "the two brothers pointed at are as far separated as London and Naples." —ln a private letter received to-day from Dr. Boyd, the "Country Parson," whose books are so widely read in England and America, ho says : "I rejoice In your military success ; I am heartily with you, and I lose no opportunity of saying so." From the first breaking onto! the war, the "Country Par son" has always been outspoken in hill sympathy with the North. The only witnefil examined by the ordnanoe °Sloes, who lately Investigated the causes of' the bursting of the Parrott guns, was Captain Parrott himself. The conclusion reached. by the oommle slon•was that the guns burst from causes unknown. —The coal monopolists of Rochester, New York have boon presented to the grand Jury for indict ment, for combining to maintain exorbitant prices. Gen. McOlernand has written a letter respect ing the proposed amendment of the Federal Consti tution, in which he says : "The right to do this is a revolutionary right, competent to be asserted by force, as In the ease of the American colonies, or peaceably as provided 1n the Federal Constitution, and as hr the present case." CnirroLrirs Alsaiirsarian BY THE Ellyn's/M.—A.O. cording to %Parisian expositor of the fashions of the day, crinoline has received notice of its final banishment from aristocratic circles. It particular. ly draws the attention of the followers of high ton , to the fact that at the ball at the Tuileries, on Wednesday evening, her Imperial Majesty, dressed with her must exquisite taste, exhibited "une grand° sobriiltt dams Pamp/eur des entournures, , , , a delicate way of expressing the absence of that de testable cage which adds so much to female dluteW Mons. The Empress' example, it appears, has been imitated by all those who have pretensions to mingle in the circles of fashionable life. The consequence is, that the impediment to the free cir culation of the guests is now in some measure re moved, and the grand staircase of the Tuileries, which has lately been almost impracticable at a certain hour or the evening, when the early party departs and the later visitors present themselves, is now ascended without the usual. difficulty. At one of the representations at the Theatre Com. peigne , the crinoline was voted an absurd and enormous nuisance. The ladies only found seats. The cavaliers were compelled to stand the whole of the evening. At the ball, on Wednesday evening, the Duchess de Yereigny and Madame Say were the theme of general admiration. Their toilet was pronounced irreproachable. They, too, had iv flounced the repudiated crinoline. A striaggle•has commenced between the pro and the autt•Orine• linists, the former being still In the majority. The dressmakers will not let the fashion of exaggerated wide-circling robes and over.orowded decorations go out of fashion if they can help ft.—Morning Post.

A eITBSTITLITIC OPPHRBD Mr. .ABALEY. of Ohio, reported a substitute for the original bill. He said he had given to this subject spe cial attention. During the last session, the Committee on the Rebellions States, of which he was a member. reported a bill which passed both Houses, but failed to meet the sanction of the President. Since thtitime ii bad been his earnest desire to conciliate all mamma who were opposed to the original bill and, if passible, to secure a nutted vote; and against his better lodgment and conviction he consented to a compromise by provid ing for the admission of Louisiana, Arkansas. and Ten ni:este. MIL DAVIS OW TICS BEBBLLII:Of. Mr. DAVIS. of Maryland. from th.e present condition of affairs, argued that by the 4th of July next armed rebellion will have failed to lift its brazen front. His object, .as- expressed in the bill, was to prevent the States now in rebellion from coming here next Decem ber dictatorially clamoring for the admission of their Representatives and twenty-two denstore. The Presi dent should treat those who bold power in the South as they deserve—drip them of ttieir emblem's of oath ortty, and expel . them from the .Ikreentive mansion; shonld they there intrude. Ae to Louisiana, that. State was reorganized by the bayonets of General Banks and the secret letter of the President. He wished to prevent the rebels from sweeping in here next Dec mbar and becoming the masters. In this connection he referred to a substitute offered by Hr. Wilson. providing that no benaters and Representatives shall be admitted to seats in Congress until a law shall have been passed declaring that a proper government has been re-eata- Maw). Mr. WILSON inquired what, there was in the pend ing bill to prevent the Senate and Souse of Representa tives from admitting Senators and Representatives front the Southern Staten? Mr. DAVIS replied 'that the two homier are the ulti mate judges as to who shalt be admitted. being go verned. according tothe Constitution . by the qualifica tions and returns. He 'wished by this bill to atop the raising of the question in savant's. Provisional go earners are now appointed by the President without law, and what he proposed was that they should be air• pointed in pursuance of the law and confirmed by the Senate. Judges were appointed in Louisiana without law by the President. We object was to restore the law. but thte was what some gentlemen object to doing. It this bill be not pealed, what was the alterna tive? The President. with the bayonet. remains in power without law in the premises He (Kr. Davis) was attempting to lay down the law, but some gentle. men here meter arbitrary will to the written law of the land. Ten years ago, when he first came to Con grit a, this Wilk& Government of law, but he had lived to see the government degenerate to arbitrary will. Let us hope, he said. that, in the course of events, those Who have rebelled aaainet tlye Constitution Ala laws will, like the Prodigal, return. asking forgiveness en their knees. Air.

Tho cheering news from Sherman had a marked effect upon the stock market yesterday, and the downward movement in gold continued. A considerable short In tereet has been created. 'which will be likely to impart a reactionary tone to the market; but this will ne cessarily be feeble in the present condition of oar foreign trade and under the itaproving aspect of the military situation. Moreover, the demand for our na. tional securities in Europe is largely assisting the effect of the preponderance of ear exports over oar imports by correspondingly diminishing the demand for gold for export and bills of exchange. Government loans ruled steady throughout the day.

Tie tax which it Is in contemplation by Congress to impose upon crude and refined petroleum is occasioning considerable stir among the dealers in that article. Delegations have reached Washington, It Is repOrted, from various cities to urge the repeal of the tax. The tax on crude oil is placed at Senor gallon (equal to about 32 40 per bbl.) This new burthen, it is feared, will seriously depress the business, and especially restrict the export demand, which is not affected by the tax as now levied, and remitted in case of shipment to a fo- reign port. Atra there is no special provision made for drawback in this case, the additional cost of 100 per gallon on the exported article must bring the coal oil now being extenstrely manufactured In Great Britain, at a coot not exceeding 2rsc per gallon, in gold, largely in competition with our domestic product in all Sara peen market., and, it in thought, with a chance of on petheding the latter altogether. Such a result would involve the gravest consequences to our great oil pro ducing intereit, which has already absorbed each a verrt amount of capital, and which Is largely dependent upon a foreign market for its profits. Hence It behooves our legislators in Washington to act upon this subject with the greatest caution, lest they kill outright the goose which lays the golden eggs. The latest proposition before Congress is to exact the payment of duty on petroleum, whether exported or not, with a view to compel foreign consumers to contd. bole to the wants of the Treasury. But the difficulty in the way of this project is, that with the additional cost of 30c per gallon for refined oil, or even half that sum. foreign consumers would not take it at all, and their market would be lost to us forever. Besides, as such a measure would be equivalent to the levy of an export duty, it is doubtful whether it could be consummated without a formal amendment of the Constitution.

Pa. • The Kentucky Legislature has incorporated a num ber of petroleum companies, with capital, in some in. stances, amounting to two millions of dollars.
