“ Memories of the War ” and “ Scenes in .Sonth
America ” aro new works now being issued by Philip
A Solomons, the welhknown publishers at Washing
ten, each consisting of a series of photographs execu
ted by the Messrs. Gardner, of Washington, from
original photographs. Iu every instance the nemo
of the artist who took-the view is given, which is
satisfactory to all parties.
Tho “Memories nf tns Worn inoiiuin ftsmtva
riety or places to which any public Interest Is
attached. In every Instance, the view has been
expressly taken for this series, the artist hav
ing accompanied the belligerents into the
soenee, whether of victory or defeat, which their
deeds have made memorable. The battle-fields of
the two Hull linns, Fair Oats, Savage Station,
Sharp Mountain, Hilton Hoad, Fort Fisher, Berlin,
Wilmington, Harper’s Ferry, Antietam, Fort Pu
laski, South Mountain, Gettysburg, Sharpabnrg,
Culpeper, Petersburg, Kiohmond, Vicksburg,- and
all other points of -Interest have been secured
There are several hundred views of Petersburg and
Kichmond, taken Immediately after the surrender
and of their vicinities. Mr. Swlnton, one of the
ablest of war correspondents, will supply thedesorlp
tivo letter-press, and the whole will be arranged so
as to give a pictorial history of Grant’s campaign.
The “Scenes in South-Amorioa,” by the same
artists, deplot tbo city of IJma and the Ohineha 1
Islands. The fine architecture of Lima is wonder- ,
tally brought out, particularly of the old Churches
Tho guano mountains aro given, and a panorama
oridma haa been depleted. Descriptive lotter-press
will accompany this series, ;
We spent an hour or two, yesterday, In looking
over those fine photographs. Mr. A. S, Solomons,
one of the publishers, bow at the Continental Hotel

Wo take from the Kew Yoflfe Evenijig Post a 1 few
comments on the « Turner ” paintings and sketches
now on exhibition in tho Kensington Museum. The
remarks whloh follow, curt as they aro, will be found
exceedingly interesting to artists. The views rela
tive to .tho practice of color by tho old mastors. aud
the theory of color by the moderns, are, If not alto
nether new, very tersely put, and may afford food'
lor sound and useful reflection to our artistic
readers:

from the market, both, as a borrower and

tery of the Treasury looks hopefully, howevt
the future; he anticipates a rapid revival of p
lul occupations, and he treats as incredible th
lion that any valuable interests can be pai
nently-' Injured by a return to specie payments
The Pennsylvanian merchants, in whose inte
Mr. Oarey. catechised Mr. McCulloch, will pw
bly be dissatisfied with the.response of the Secret
on the currency .question, but they may perhaps,
cover some crumbs of comfort in what he has to;
about the tariff. tKr. McCulloch's position is di
cult, and his language Is not free from amblguit
but the protectionists of. the North may posslb
tie mistaken in counting him as an adhere',
to ' their views. His firß.t prinolplo-that tt
tariff policy Is settled by the national uebt-
Implles, as a consequence, that’ were ther
ho debt there would be no tariff, and tha:
•ustoms duties should: be raised .for purposes o
revenue only. This Interpretation Is confirmed bv
his hope that the forthcoming bill of the revenue
commission will harmonise the foreign and Internal
duties of the United States, a result which o&n only
„e accomplished by making the oustomS and excise
duties equally onerous when imposed on the same
■omtnodlty. On the other hand, when Mr. filccul-'
inch says that the necessitterof the Government
will give the home -manufacturer all the protection

core appropriate to-Mr. Fessenden, who congratu
itod the nation on the decline of the oustoms ro
veipts, because It betokened a complete exolusi oa
of foreign manufactures.

the fact that he is an agriculturist and believes free

The Fheskkt CofiDiTioif of Mouht Vernon
I -—A recent visit to Mount: Vernon has found tha
i place in a good state .of preservation, none of the
i ravages ot war having extended in that Uiriotion.
: The scouting parties, of both armies i have always
regarced it as neutral groands, and novor violated
its precincts by acts of hostility. The. agent of the'
Mount Vernon' Association remains at-tho man
sion, and is a; bitter Secessionist, not having visit
ed Alexandria since the war, in consequence 'of
the necessity of taking the oath. His wife, how
ever, subscribed to the oath, and is allowod to como
to the city for supplies. The house remains pre
cisely as it was four years ago. The same table
and blank book for rosrfstoring the names of visitors
stands in the hail, with the key to the French Bas
tile, presented by Lafayette to Washington, hang
ing over them in its little glass case, and speci-'
mens of wood and minerals abovo tho doors. Tne
ogont, with* his wire and two or three children, oc
cupy a suite of rooms on tho loft of the hall, and a
few negroes Inhabit the kitchen;* The tomb, so j
often described, remains untouched. A lonely 1
u Phcobe ” bird has, built against the wall la- i
side, and with its ' plaintive, monotonous call? i
Js the only tiling to break tho dead silence of
the spot. It is a subject for congratulation that so I
little expense is required to pub the premises in as i
complete older for tho reception of.visitors as be- i
Sore the war. The fenceß need some repairs, the .
shrubbery requires anti a few,vacant
places Isa -Ho flower mtghh -bO : nllod 'Vittt :

The lancing place 1b in perfect order, .though the
water has become rather shallow, but at high tide
will no doubt be of sulhcient depth to permit light
draught steamers to land, It is understood that ar
rangements are now on foot for reopening the man
sion to visitors, and that in a short time excursion
trips to this spot will be regularly made
The Inundation in Waldaohia.— We And in a
letter from Bucharest, written on the sofeh of Maroh
to the London Daily News, the following additional
particulars respecting the inundation to which we
have already briefly alluded :
“ The .terrible inundations which have overwhelm
ed. the capital and country, as destructive as that
which destroyed Peßth some years back, have si
lenced political discussion for tho moment. Picture
to yourself'a large town, of which tho greater num
ber of habitations are but one story high, invaded
by a mass of water generated by three days’ and
nights’ heavy and incessant rain, carrying down the
mud of the mountains with it. The poor of Bucha
rest were for many days without a roof. The Go
vernment, as was its duty, did all that was possible,
and several offloers and soldiers lost their lives in *
striving to save villages and their Indispensable
stores. The plain of Wallachla Is all humus, as you j
are aware, not a stone to be seen, 'The houses are
of brick, or wood, or mud, so you may conceive what
ravages a torrent works,, The Prince appointed a
commission, and summoned ftir. Barkloy, the chief

for the Inundation had pretty woll demolished them. [
Tho next care was to restore the bridges which, had I
been swept away, and have them replaced by struc
tures oapable of defying the torrents on similar oo- I
oasions. The Government has contracted: with
Messrs. Barkley and Stamforth to ereot and furnish |
materials fer.clghteen iron bridges. Two are largo I
ones, over the Otta'nnd Slatlaa', and one over the I
iSabar, between Bucharest and Glergevo. Those I
bridges are, it seems, on the plan tried and approved I
of .in India,-of which the torrential rivers bear oon- |
slderable resemblance to thoso which run from the I
Oarpathfons to tho Danube.” I

Gold ih Kb-wHaim'Shirk.— ln the latter part of
the full cf ISM, John Hascltlne and E B Eaton,
two men who 1170 In Wart on, discovered gold to a
considerable extent mixed with the sand in a stream
situated in that town, called Hurricane Brook,
.which rnns near the westerly slope of Mount Carr.
They kept the matter a secret, and, during the win
ter, secured a title to a largo tract of land in the vi
cinity of the brook and the mountain. Specimens
.of the gold were submittodto Dr. O. T. Jackson,-the
eminent geologist of Boston, and he. pronounced It
genuine. At the-present time a large number of
men are engaged In washing the.sand obtained In
the brook, and digging for the precious metal, and a
great excitement prevails in that region ih regard to
the new mine.- . -
a This Is the-first discovery of gold of any account
In this State. A company tas.been formed to work

Mineral Belts.—ln 'the present stage of the

with a great deal of vagueness. Wo often read of
the copper belt, gold belt, silver belt, and others, as
If the earth's crust was divided off Into regular
parallel divisions; and In these, "traceable with
out limit, might be: found each of those mine
rals to the exclusions the other. We believe
tnat.af great mistake .is made in sudi an arratLorQ

are the consequences. If any body of the earth's

the theory that-satisfied the conditions, as far as the
explorations wore carried, has "been adopted as cor

Taking the deductions of Eastern writers on the
subject, the geologists or .this western ooast have
been iead _to make many assertions that have not

: The prevailing opinions as to the future price of
gold compared with greenbacks are widely at vari
ance, and'are anxiously dlßeussed by all classes o f
business men, as are also the comparative merits,
safety, and efficiency of the numerous methods
which ;have been proposed for an early or a more
gradual resumption of specie payments. Some per
sous think that the price of gold will decline as‘a
consequence of peace, and with llttie If any refer
ence to the curtailment' of the currency.! Others
have claimed that the premium On gold, arid the
depreciation of our paper money whloh it Impor
iectly Indicates, are always in exact proportion to
the gross amount of currency ailoat, whether that
currency bo Inert or aotivo; whether it bo hoarded,
or in brisk and lively movement in the channels of
traffleand business.: -A third opinion Is that 16 Is

In speaking of' the Immense subscriptions last
week to the seven-thirty loan, the 'New York Tri
bune of yesterday remarks : ■'
The subscriptions to the sovon-thlrty loan last
week-were $40,887*100, The news of the assassina
tion or Mt. Lincoln caused adeelino In American
securities abroad. It/wasnatural. A similar event'
in any country of Europe would have produced
oonfuslon anywhere—anarchy almost anywhere.
Occurring here when the country was involved In
civil war a similar result was, of course, presumed
to be inevitable, and "oonfldenoe was shaken in
Americanbonds.■.< But they have yet to learn a good
doal about the Government of the United States
in Europe. They dia not believe that it was po3sl
ble to suppress the rebellion till they were first as
tounded by the fall or Richmond, and then struck
dumb with amazement at thesurrender of Lee. The
assassination of the President has added consterna
tion to surprise, and. though they recognize a giant,'
it is a giant tottering,blindly and headlong to ruin.
But their wonder Is not yet over. They will hear of '
the American people quietly and voluntarily sub
scribing, on the week of that President’s funeral, at
the rate of six and a half millions of dollars dally to '
a National loan. It is a hard and painful lesson,-
but Europe will be taught, at length, to know that ■
an enlightened people, under a free government, are
strong in war and equally strong In peace 5 that nei
ther treason nor assassination oan strike at .the 1
charmed life of the nation. • • • ,
