New Publications.
Two very pleasant boohs, very popular In their
day, have just boon republished by Ashmeal &
Evans. These are Miss Edgeworth’s "Moral
Tales,” with original designs by Darley, and her
“Popular Tales,” illustrated by Orooma. They are,
neatly got up, in handsome bindings, and are safe
family reading. The same publishers have brought
out a filth edition, revised and enlarged, of Eliza
beth Nicholson’s Eoonomioal Cook Book (a Home
Manual), which has the advantage of being oom
pact and low-priced. We cannot say muoh In
of it. Some of thyooelpts are oddly named; thus we'
have “M. A. B,’a MUkßlßoutt” and “O. B.’s Soda
Cake.” There are no directions for making. Mush
room Catsup, which Is almost exclusively used In En
gland, and by foreigners here, when they can get;lt.
The book abounds in little puffs or particular articles.
A coffee-pot Is thUB mentioned; also, an “Extem
pore Cook;” an air-tight fruit jar ongravlng is
given, as well as the manufacturers’ names and ad.
dress; a gas cooking apparatus, materials forGre
olan painting, and garden furniture are also duly
Credited to especial vendors, whose names and plac es
of business are given in full.
On the llth of February, 1885, Mr. Charles J.
Biddle, specially appointed for that purpose, by.the
bar of Philadelphia, delivered an eulogy upon the
late Mr. G. M. Dallas, one of the oldest and most
’ distinguished members of-the legal profession In
this State. At the request - , of the bar, Mr. Biddle
has allowed this eulogy to be published in pamphlet
form. We have read it with satisfaction, for It tolls
the story of Mr. Dallas’ life in the clearest manner
tracing It from Its ancestral connections down to Its
termination, and "allowing his own words and'ac
tions to Bhoy his personal and public character. A
a biographical sketch it is at ’ once' luold and full
without being diffuse. Mr. Biddle States that he ue
rived some of his Information from a diary, in
which, at various periods of his life, he entoredhis
thoughts and observations—a diary " Intended, pro
bably, only for his own eye, or that of domestic
affection." We also learn “that Mr. Dallas had
prepared for publication a work; which heentitled
«A Series of Letters from London, written during
the years 1856, ’57, ’6B, ’59, and ’Bo,’ by George.
MlfillnSDallas, then Minister of the United States
at the British court. These .letters were distinct
from Ms official despatches and correspondence,
and embrace a greater variety of topics." We
presume that this work will be published, and
shall be highly pleased if it is only half as instruc
tive and entertaining as the late Mr. Richard
Rush’s "Memoranda of a Residence at the Court
of London.” In the absence of any extended bio
graphy of Mr. Dallas, we reoommend Mr. Biddle’s
" Eulogy” as giving a reliable and spirited shetoh o
his career anil character.
T, B. Peterson & Brothers have added two works,
with engravings from Darley’s designs, and illumi
nated oovers, to their popular Library of Humor
ous American Works. These are " The Adventures
of Fudge Fumble,” by the author of the " Arkansas :
Doctor,” and “Mysteries of tho Backwoods,” by
T. B. Thorpe, author or “ Tom Owon, the'Bee Hun
ter.” For quaint humor, racy If rough, commend
us to the series of wMoh these volumes are a por
tion. 1
The English shilling magazines (received from
.T. .T. Kromor, 403 Chestnut street,) continue to keep
the leading novelists and essayists of England well
employed. In Temple Bor, for April, Miss Braddon
continues her new novel, “ Sir Jasper’s - Tenant,”
which, so far, Is the best she has yet written; W.
G, WIUb carries on hls serial story, " David Chan-_
trey;” Edmund Y.tes commences a new and very
promislng.romance entitled “ Land at Last,” and
G. A. Sala, In the new number of Mb “ Streets of
the World,” sketches from Clinton Place.lnto
Broadway. lit the St. Jama’ Magazine, MISS Brad
don has another serial novel, called« ’ Only a Olod,”
and there is a translation of a-Prench tala by Paul
Feval, “Working in the Dark, a romance.or the.
Black Coats.” The CmmhUl-Magazine, Willed ha?
not sustained the reputation it gained wMle edited
by Thackeray, has Wilkie Collins’ impressive story
of "Armadale” as a piece ch: resistance, and relies,
also, on “Wives and Daughters,” by Mrs. Gaskoll.
Its general contents are heavy, except a review of
Napoleon’s “Life ol Julius Caesar,” wMoh is so
severe that the author of the.book, as imperious as
he Is Imperial, has seized every copy of the Maga
zine that reached Paris by post.
Of the American magazines, we have received
advance eopiOß of two (Atlantic Monthly and Our
Young Folks,) from T. B. Pugh, Sixth.and Chest
nut, and Godey's Lady's Book, and the Ladies'
Friend, from the respective publishers. The last
named are good specimens ol tMs class; Godey's Is
especially good, and the engravings equal to hls

THE VISIT OF PRESIDENT LINCOLN 1
(HABITABLE DISTRIBUTION OF FOOD
[Special Correspondence of The Presz. 1 -
PSTBSSBURO, April 19,1805
JUBILANT TRAITORS,
It matters not where I may' go, whether stopping
in tow ns or cities, or'paSßlng through the country,
tbe unfeigned grlaf of an affUqted people, caused by
the assassination, of President 'Linooln, Is every
where manifested by loyal hearts. There Is no dis
guising the fact that the paroled rebel officers
and soldiers, strutting abont In their trea
sonable uniforms, even wearing their red sashes,
swords, and pistols, evince the most jubilant mani
festations of satisfaction. Such exMbltlons were
always offensive to the soldiers of the .Union, but
since the murder of tho fountainhead of loyalty,
by the conspiracy of treason, they have become afi
outrage upon the feelings of our patriot
Every consideration of right, as well as justice to
the memory ofthe venerated dead, and respect for
the feelings of living heroes, demands that these ar
rogant ; rebels, who. are hourly declaring that,
as soon as they are exchanged, they are resolved to
enter the! field In behalf of Jeff Davis, should bs
stripped of the villainous gray in wMch they da
lighted to.mtyrder soldiers of tho Union,aud the oolor
stamped with infamy. ,
•THU 00L03SD TBOOPS.
I would state that, as a historical fact wor
thy of special mention, the colored troops of
Bri adlor Gen srai Wm. Blrney’e division were the
first to enter Petersburg. The Tth United States
Colored Troops, recruited In Maryland, and the Bth
United States Colored Troops, recruited In Phila
delphia. were tne advance forces to occupy this city.
It must be ..a source of great gratification to the
friends of tMs element of Union strength to be as-
Bured that,the first organizations to enter these
strongholdßOfthe rebellion, Richmond and Peters
burg, were colored troops.
Gen. Blimey was relieved of Ms command on
tho field,’ find Mrs been assigned Instead to com
mand a small, garrison at Harrisonls Landing.
Brevet Brig, Gen.- Jackson, who was. Inspector
general on the staff or Gen...Weltzel, suooeedsjilm.
This division, wbieh is the 2d In the 35th Corps, re
turned td this vlolntty yesterday afternoon, haying
participated la the vigorous campaign which has
crowned the Army of the Potomac with Immortal
glory. The division was temporarily attached to it
with Turner’s division, under the command of
Gen. Ors.
THE BIRR IN TRTRRSBUBG*
The • fire here was not as destructive as in
Richmond. The rebels satisfied themselves with
burning the Central Warehouse, West Hill Ware
house, Norfolk depot, Rowlet’s lumber-house, Pooa
hontas bridge, a pontoon bridge, a bridge leading
from the Soutbaldo yard over to finishing shops of
the Sonthslde Railroad,and Cammel’s bridge. Tbe
combined efforts ofthe firemen and the soldiers soon
extinguished tbeJames and saved a beautlful-nlty
ftom destruction. ■
VISIT-OF THB LATR PRRBIDBNT.
The visit of President Lincoln and Gen. Grant
to this elty on tbe first day of its occupation by our
lbroes was no doubt Intended as an exemplification
of that leniency wMch characterized the policy of
the late CMef Magistrate. They were both enthu
siastically received, and stopped at the residence of
Thomas Wallace,who was suddenly transformed into
a Union man by the magic influence of triumphant
bayonets. -
THE COLORED PBOFLE.
The .colored people being aware that the city
would. be 'efaouated on the evening of tbe 24 of
April, and fearing that the rebels would drive them
before them, passed the night in the negro churohes,
where they remained until they saw the colored
soliyers arresting rebel soldiers found In the elty.
Notwithstanding this city has been purified -by a
new order of things, there are some guerillas In this
and other counties adjacent, who are prowling
about plundering the people and tearing up the
railroader
During the period of rebel . rule, It was a
common occurrence for these*- Goi!-overlooked
wretches of to knock down citizens and rob
them, or promlso to conduct negroes through the
lines, and meeting them at an appointed plaoe, they
having changed all their Confederate money and
propertr'lfiß> greenbacks or gold and silver, would
not only plunder tiom or everything, but actually
hand them over to the rebel authorities for attempt
ing to run the blockade.
;. ROBBING THE BRAD.
These vandals have even In this city gone to the
vaults of the dead’ and stripped them of their
elotMng and such lewelry as they were burled in.
Not Mug can exceed the depravity and Infamy of
this class, either In their treatment to their own
people or their barbarism to ours,
FOIIOB REGULATIONS.
j. Since the'occupation by the Union forces Peters,
burg hasnevor been-so quiet or orderly as Is now
being experienced, Tpe regulations of the authori
ties are .ouch as to insure the,-safety and property
of.clttseps. The difference between law and order,
whlchjthe' clrizeps ; are ,nbw’enjoying, and the bold
robbery, which was openly enacted under the Davis
rule, cannot help but make a favorable impression
upon the minds of all reasonable persons.
/It was-hardly possible to conceive of the extent of
corruptlon porvading ail classes of rebels from pri
vates; to generate. They could be bought to run
either colored of white persona through the lines.
So rotten has been the whole concern;that it is gene
rally believed that even Jeff Davisoould be induced
to aid the escape of persons through the lines for a
respectable consideration.
EFFECTS OF WAR.
As an evidence of how much the war has affected
many persons -here, I know a slaveholder, who, at
the beginning of the rebellion, purchased a beauti-
ful residence on Long Market street at a cost of
twenty thousand dollars, paying five thousand dol
lars down, with the privilege of paying the balance
alter the war. When we captured Richmond this
man was there, and was obliged to borrow money
from the Ipusbandof a woman whom he owns to pay
his fare from Richmond to Petersburg. Oh! how
have the mighty fallen!
VS2XXHTO THE HTTKGBY,
The military authorities, with that mingled mag
nanimity.and .charity whioh have marked the ad
vance of,'the Union army, and its treatment of Its
enemies, Are Issuing rations to those upon whom the
misfortunes of war have brought so much suffering
and destitution. Many who,;no doubt, were blatant
rebels three weeks ago, are earing the bread of loy
alty with A relish of satisfaction, if not with thanks.
The crowd -ground the cymmissary te a graphic ip.
Initiation if the” madness in* which these peopis
have been indulging for the last four years. The
white men who apply for substetenoo are mostly
paroled prisoners, but the stream of women seems
continuous. If one were to judge by their dress,
very few of them would be regarded as objects of
charity. Many of them come In silks, and are other
wise respectably attired, and. In some Instances
bring a few/flowers for the obliging clerks behind
the connter. In. such cases It would not be surpri*
jug If the scales went down a-little heavier than
generally marks the routine of issuing rations. The
commissary Is located on Old street, where the oha*
rityof the Government, like the mercy of Heaven,
is being distributed alike to the just and the unjust.
HOW LOYALTY IS OBBTIFIBJJ TO.
. It IS a sourorof great regret that the former mem
bers of the Common Council of this olty, who were
always the enemy of the loyal blaoks, and the
friends of the rebel whites, have been designated to
determine those who are destitute, and are In need
of subsistence. -Of course, all those who were the
most bitter against the. Government have no diffi.
culty ln gettlng the necessary papers or endorse
ments from these extemporized Union men. Color*
ed persons, whose loyalty was never donbted, and
whom the rebels hated because It was known they'
never'invested any faith In their cause, have to very
many instances been refused, or obtained the neces
sary signatures 1 under a great deal of difficulty.
And when they did piesent.their papers, properly au
thenticated, they only received pork and oora << meal,
while rebels In uniform and persons of known trea
'sonable sentiments were drawing pork, meal, flour,
‘beans, coffee, and sugar. ’ 1 Immediately called the
attention of Major Gen. Geo. Li. Harts off to this
unjust discrimination, who Immediately conferred
with Brevet Major Gen. Ferrero, commanding thij
city, and Captain Asa Gregory, his commissary of
subsistence. To Gen. Hartsuff’s credit it must be
recorded, that In three hours from the moment that
It was first Intimated to him, the .distinction was
promptly suppressed, and the loyal blacks were re
ceiving an equality of rations. The major general
commanding was entirely Ignorant of this Injustice,
until It was biought to hls notice, but the prompt
manner In whleh he remedied It evinces that Im
partial spirit which should be the animating senti
ment of all In authority. - ~ ’
It must h? fgnftssed that the Individual who
grvea to the whites the pieces of paper upon which
the exact amounts to be drawn are written, which,
of| course, he Inscribes, is dressed in rebel uniform,
and only a day or two ago was inoneoftheßlch
mjond batteries In arms against the Government,
the amount of whose rations he now has the satis
faction of designating to hls disloyal brethren.
This may be regarded a rapid restoration to favor,
and, should toe same spirit Increase In all other re
spects In a similar proportion, how long would It be
before Jeff Davlf Is President 1
|Gens, Hartsuff and Ferrero wlll, 80 for as Ine
qualitlea oome to their'notice, 1 without regard to
color, depl justly with all classes of persons. Sub
ordihatfes will not be tolerated In the exercise of
their negro-hating prejudices as one of the means
or working off the ebullitions of their effervescent
spirit of disloyalty.
- i It is but just to General Welted to say that while
he was in command at Bfohmond his administration
was marked with that impartiality whleh an honest
heart never fails to approve. In a former despatch
the words, 11 the colored troops are not aUowei to
pass through the city” (Btchmond), need a little ven
tilation. Ho soldiers wore permitted to enter the'
okty except those designated to do provost-guard
duty. I now learn from reliable authority that suoh
a oonrse was proposed to allay excitement—-to save
the troops from a long maroh, and to ordorto enable
y-em to move at once to their plaoes without passing
/ through the city. The reason that rebel officers and
soldiers were not divested of their uniforms under
the governorship of General Shepley was not be
cause this gallant offloer did not reoognlzo the pro
priety of snoh a course, but rather tolerated them
in order that he might the more readily capture cer
tain cMeftaios who had forfeited their right to be at
liberty.
It Is also due to General Weltzel to acknowledge
that he is net aware that airs. General Lee ever
had a guard over her property, and that, if a white
one was substituted for a colored one, he Is entirely
ignorant of the faot. General Weltzel Is the pride
of the 25th Corps, both among the offloers andmen,
who believe Mm incapable of doing wrong to the
former or Injußtloe to the latter. With Ms honest
nature ever manifesting itself through the simpli
city of Ms character and the modesty of hls great
ness, he will ever receive the admiration of those,
who are capable of appreciating manly virtues and
valor. RobLiN.

AN UNKNOWN TRANSPORT WRBOKBD,
Fortress Monrob, April 19.—The schooner
Eliza Neal-arrived here this morning, and reports
haring seen, on tho 18th Instant, at two o’clock F.
M., a steamer (propeller) ashore at Oregon Inlet,
85 miles north of Cape Hattora3, flying her ensign
onion down. Appearances indicated that she had
just gone ashore. About 100 men had just been
taken off tho steamer, and boats wereatlll removing
the troops, with wMoh she was loaded. The wind
at the time was southwest, Bea smooth, and the
Steamer seemed to be lying easy.
OREBMONIBit AT FORTRESS MONROB—
ARRESTS OF SUSFBOTBD FARTIBS.
Tbe funeral ceremonies of the late CMef Magis
trate ofthe nation Were appropriately Bolemnized
here, this morning. A large meeting, composed of
army and navy officers, the clerks of the various
departments at this place, and a number of visitors
from Norfolk and Portsmouth, was: held on the
piece of ground where tbe old Hy giene Hotel for
merly stood. Dr. Craven, medioal director of .this
post, was chosen president, and twelve distinguished
officers and citizens were appointed,vice presidents.
After a prayer by the Rev. E. F. MOore, of West
Chester, Pa., Charlton Lewis, Esq., of Brooklyn,
N. Y., delivered a very able discourse on the death
of our lamented President, and the immediate re
sults bearing upon Ms decease. A series of resolu
tions, having for their purport the expression of the
general sorrow and gloom oast over the nation, and
exhorting each and every citizen to abstain from all
thought of vengeance and retaliation, were then
read by Mr. Janeway, assistant medical director,
and at a o’olock P. M. the meeting solemnly dis
persed. ’
In connection with the terrible plot wMcb led to
the assassination of the President, the arrest of
some parties well known at this place, who fora
long time past have been accumulating wealth and
been tbe recipients of untold favors irom the bands
of the Government, is calculated to tend tnsome
slight degree to unravel the profound mystery which
at present seems to overshadow the event.
HOIIE.AND FOBM«» NOTES.
A sturdy sergeant of one of onr Massachusetts
regiments being obliged to submit to the amputa
tion of Ms band, the surgeon offered to admlMster
phloroform; but the veteran refused, saying: “If
cutting was to be done.on him he wanted to sea it,”
and, laying fils arm on,the table, submitted to the
operation without a sign of pain, except a firmer.
setting of the teeth as the saw struck the marrow.
Tho operator, os be finished, looked at Ms victim
with admiration, and remarked: “ You ought to
have been a surgeon, my man.” “ I was the' next
thing to one afore I enlisted,” said the hero. “What
was that 1" asked the doctor. “A batcher 1” re-
sponded the sergeant, with a smile, wMch, despite
the surroundings, communicated itself to tbe by-
standers.

There is some excitement in thecoal regions of Penn
sylvania, caused by the anticipated fall In the price of
fcel.an d the falling off in the usual number of orders from
this and other cities. It appears that a large number of
cargoes were sent to fiTewTorkiii expectation of meet
lag ready sales at former exorbitant prices; but the
fiewlork agents refused to receive them at the ship
pers' figuref, and the accumulations are left to stand to
the account of the original owners, and probably will
bo remain until a material reduction takes place. Many
olthe collieries have been forced to stop operations.it is
said, in consequence of the determination of purchasers
to no lor ger submit to extortions, and unless prices
rule far below those at present demanded many more
will find it necessary to suspend work.
There has been a great falling off in the receipts of
breadstuff's at Chicago this year, compared with last.

that the loans already authorized by Congress will
prove sufficient to settle ail the obligations which the
