Cold World Relations with the New.
Lord PeTarvnaTon has obtained no small
applause, in the House of Commons, by
his emphatic declaration that " the British
Government had no intention of attempting
any interference in the internal affairs of
the United states." He was drawn into
making this statement by a question—
Whether, a large sum having been offered
for the apprehension of .T.sarEasort DAVIS,
jt was the purpose of the British Ministry
to make any representations to the United
states Government in reference to the
treatment of Bebel leaders and other trai
tors. Lord PALMERSTON, whatever he may
have been fifteen years ago, when he had
very nearly brought England into a war
with France, on account of certain claims
upon Greece by one Dolt Pammeo, a Bri
tish subject, is now the reverse of im
pulsive. At his:time of life, and with the
official experience of half a century, he
knows better than to do any thing rashly,
and must be fully aware, from the terrible
crisis through which the United States
have passed, during the last four years,
that it would be equally absurd and dan
gerous to say or do any thing at all likely to
sow dissension between the two great em
pires. The truth, which foreign statesmen
cannot realize too soon, is that we have a
decided objection to being interfered with.
We hav6 become a mighty nation without
foreign intervention, and we shall jealously
continue to repudiate and resist it, if at
tempted in the smallest degree. No foreign
ruler or diplomatist shall presume to tell
us how we are to treat the great criminals
Whose treason, perjury, and ambition
created the most awful war the world ever
saw—the most costly, too, in blood and
treasure. These ringleaders . shall be
treated strictly according to Constitutional
prineiples--that is, shall be fairly dealt
with according to the very laws, for the
overthrow of which they banded together
in a vile conspiracy. Lord PALMERSTON
acts discreetly, in determining that Eng
land shall carefully eschew every tempta
tion to interfere in the internal affairs of
the United States. Our desire, as a people,
is to be let alone,—to manage our affairs in
our own way,—lnd wo to those who attempt
to meddle with us.
Equally cautious is the assertion, not by,
but for Lord PALMERSTON, that the Aus
trian Archduke, MAXIMILIAN, is in a very
bad way in Mexico. He has not made any
announcement to this effect in the House
of COMMOTIS, where it would have more
authority and weight, because notice has
been given in that branch of the legislature
of a motion condemnatory of the recogni
tion of the Mexican Empire by the Queen
of England. It would be out of rule to an
ticipate that discussion by any declaration
of policy. But there are various ways in
which a Ministerial intention or opinion
may be made. One of these is through
the newspapers. Now, Lord PALMERSTON
is understood to be actual owner of the
Morning Post, the fashionable journal of
London, in which some very able articles
upon politics frequently appear, and he
bolds some shares in the Globe, an evening
paper, which has been his organ ever since
the accession of the Reform Ministry, in
1830. What PALSIERSTON has to say—
boldly, defiantly, or triumphantly,—ap
pears in his own Morning Post ; what he
desires to have rather insinuated than ex
pressed is published in the Globe. We
can smile, therefore, and indulge in
a significant shake of the head, after
the manner of Lord Burleiglc, in " The
Critic," when we find the Globe de
clare that "Maxnerneet will be highly
favored by fortune, and will prove his
ability, if he can conquer the adverse cir
cumstances which surround him—that his
success is very doubtful, and that it is to
be hoped it will not be a case of calamity
for the Mexican people." When PAL
'AMMON sanctions such a declaration as
that, so prophetic of failure, we may well
understand that he has no faith in MAXI
KILIArea future, and will not allow Eng
land to advance one sixpence to forward
it. Should there be a Parliamentary de
bate upon Mexican matters, PALMERSTON
will have one great difficulty to contend
With—namely, the understood fact that
the ready recognition of MAteraufami as
lemperor of Mexico, was urged on her
Ministry by Queen VICTORIA herself.
As " the Queen can do no wrong," is a
Constitutional principle in England, Vic
Tana. really has not the power of appoint
ing a dishwasher in the Royal scullery, and
her Ministers are responsible for every
thing. But, as was charmingly expressed
by Miss Caroline Wilhelmina Amelia
Skeggs, in " The Vicar of Wakefield,"
there is a way of doing these things,
and one can readily imagine the Queen's
personally putting it to PALMERSTON
and. Messzw.,, that one would be glad
to have the new Mexican empire con
solidated by British recognition. It is'
not very likely that she knew or knows
what are called "Therights of the case,"
but the Archduke ISlimarnaAN's wife,
CHARLOTTE?, of BelglUrn, is first cousin of
Queen VICTORIA, and her uncle, LltOrow,
of Belgium, who naturally desires his child's
advancement, is in the habit of giving his
advice to Irrcrolua, his niece, and is be
lieved to have interested and influenced
her in this Mexican affair. As this may
ooze out in a Parliamentary discussion of
the question, it may be expected that, if
possible, PALMERSTON will continue to
stave off the debate. The hospitalities of
Cambridge House (PAntamorost's London
residence), have conciliated much Parlia
mentary opposition ere now; and where
PALMERSTON'S dinners have not succeeded,
admission to Miladi s delightful evening
parties have frequently been the means of
effecting.
The Mexican Empire has never been ac
knowledged by the United States. NA
ronnore, who created it, is understood to
be not only concerned but embarrassed by
the opposition which MaxnerrtAx, his no
minee, has encountered. It was believed
in Paris, that Neronnorr would send a
French fleet to Mexico, to support MAXI
aULIAN. But, from the first, the interfe
rence in Mexican affairs has been unpopu
lar in France, where the waste of the army,
by sickness as much as by battle, has caused
much disapprobation, while the expendi
ture of over sixty million dollars, to build
up a fragile throne for an Austrian prince,
is still more deeply condemned. It is evi
dent that NA.vonnoN is in a difficulty of his
own making, out of which he can scarcely
enierge 'without something extremely like
failure.
Becoming Popularized.
It is satisfactory to find that the British
parliament is becoming popularized. A
few years ago, a step was taken by which
this was commenced. A statute passed in
the reign of Queen ANNE, provided that
xto one elected member of the House of
Commons should take his seat until he
proved himself in possession of actual
property, of the value of £3OO a year, in
the case of a borough, and of £6OO a year in
that of a county membership. The only
exceptions were in the case of members
for Scotland and the Universities, (Oxford,
Cambridge, and Dublin,) and when a no
bleman's eldest son had been elected. The
city of Westminster, in which the Parlia
ment Houses, the principal public offices,
and the royal palaces are situated, is a very
Important part of what constitutes the im
mense metropolis, which is known ;ts Lon
don, and has three million inhabitants.
'Westminster contains over 250,000 inhabi
tants, of whom some 14,000 are registered
Voters—to elect two members of Parlia
ment. At present, these members are Sir DE
LACY EVANS, who fought so bravely in the
Crimea, and Sir :form SHELLEY, a Sussex
baronet. E - v.alts, who is seventy-eight years
old, and has represented Westminster for
about thirty years, will retire from Parlia
ment at the close of the present sessio n , i n a
couple of months ; SMILLEY, who is twenty
years younger, has sat for Westminster
for thirteen years, and is not threatened
with oppposition at the approaching elec
tion, this summer. There will be a severe
contest for the seat to be vacated by EvArts
retiring.
For this seat there are two candidates,
both professing Liberal Opinions. One is
Captain Gnotivalfolg, nephew or cousin of
of the Marquis of Westminster, and the
other is Jonx STUART MILL, the well
known political writer. The Liberal opi
nions of GROSVENOR go merely to the ex
tent of supporting the Palmerston Minis
try through thick and thin—but he is a ca
det of the Marquis of Westminster's fami
ly, and that is expected to go a great way,
for the Marquis owns about a clear third of
all the houses in the Westminster elcatoral
borough, and will probably press his te
nants to vote for the gay young captain, a
mere holiday soldier, whose campaigns are
in the drawing-rooms of the West End.
Mr. MILL, who is nearly sixty years old,
has been a writer all his days. He has
contributed largely to the Edinburgh, and
edited the Westminster Review for some
time ; the opening article on the Philoso
phy of .Auguste Comte, in the last number
was written by Mr. MILL, and is emi
nently mystical, laborious, and unintelli
gible. He writes better on political eco
nomy, though he has . yet to learn much
from Hx,Nny C. CAREY, and has argued
with great power and sincerity, in favor of
the Union principles in connexion with
our recent-war. He has rarely, if ever,
spoken - in public, and few men who have
entered Parliament at, his advanced age
have ever succeeded there. His Liberalism
is of the boldest character—more extensive
even then Mr. BRIGHT'S.
Should GROBVHNOR and MILL carry on
the contest so as to appeal to the electors at
the poll, a third candidate will oppose
both. This is Mr. W. H. SMITH, who is
connected with " the press." There are
newspaper-proprietors, editors, and con
tributors in the House of Commons, but
Mr. Smarr, if elected, will the first news
render. He keeps a large establishment in
the Strand for the sale of newpapers, and
is the lessee of nearly all the newspaper,
magazine, and book-stands at the railway
stations all over the British Islands. In
this trade he has made a great deal of
money, and now, smitten by ambition, he
seeks to enter Parliament upon Tory prin
ciples. If the two Liberals go to the poll,
the Tory newsman has a good chance of
slipping into the vacant seat. He is sup
ported by a numerous and strong commit
tee, consisting of the most influential Con
servative inhabitants of Westminster.
There once was a professional pugilist (the
late Joni Gvmv) in the House of Com-
MOM, but if Mr. SMITH is elected, he will
be the first newsman there. Thus do level
ling principles creep on in England.
A Visit to Richmond.
Cipt dal Coneepondenee of The Item]
RICHMOND, Any 30,1830
One of the most delightful trips that can be made
at this season of the year, and at this particular
time, is to Riehmond, the late seat of the so-ealled
Southern Confederacy. In company with a number
of ladies and gentlemen, I left Philadelphia on
Thursday last (over the Philadelphia, Wilmington,
and Baltimore Railroad) and taking one of the
beats of the celebrated Old Bay Line at Baltimore,
reached FortresS Monroe at seven o'clock on Friday
morxiirg. The scene at this point was abusyone. The
transports were getting ready to sail for Texas, and
were tilled with "Americans of African descent"
for that distant point. The news of the surrendp
Of Kirby Smith and his army will doubtless change
their destination, as that was the last organized
Confederate force, and with their surrender literally
ended the Confederate States Government. We
left the Fortress, where Jeff Davis is now securely
cobtned, at 8 o'clock, and reached Richmond about
5 P. K.
There are several things which strike the North
ern visitor to Richmond; and to some of the Impres
sions made upon my mind, without referring to the
many points of interest in and around the city, /
will devote this letter.
THB BURNTNO OF THB OITF.
The immense destruation of property, lamed by
the rebels in evacuating Riehmesd, Is alined
indescribable. Over eight hundred buildings in
the business part of the city were utterly de
stroyed, and a mass of iron, stone, and brick
remains as a testimonial of the diabolical Spirit
which, even in their final overthrow, actuated
the leaders of the rebellion. I was told that a Gem-
Initttce of citizens, learning that ft was the Intention
of the rebel authorities to fire the oity, waited tinbn,
that arela.traitor Sohn C. Etreekierldge, and TO
wrortsiiated most earnestly against Ouch a coarse.
But their protests were in vain; the torah was
apOled in various parts of the city, and in a
few hours many of the oldest citizens were re
duced from affluence to poverty. But for the
efforts of our soldiers the entire city would
doubtless have been destroyed. They saved Rich.
mond; and their efforts on that occasion, SO
entirely different from what the people were taught
to expect, have had a most salutary effect upon the
hearts of even the most bitter rebels. Only think
of it! Their friends attempted to destroy Rich
mond; their enemies attempted to save it, and did
save it. What a commentary upon the spirit which
actuated the loyal and the rebellious ! One of the
most distressing things that occurred during the
fire was the explosion of tie magazine, by whioh
twenty paupers In the Almshouse,,abyttt fifty yards
distant, were killed, and many woeinded.. '
It is
alleged that the building was not ordered ,Ito be
destroyed, but it was destroyed ; and, to shield the
authorities from the responsibility, it is said tbat it
must have been done by the mob. ;.
DRSTITTITION OP ItICITOND.
The extreme destitution of the people of Rich
mond (and Richmond la said in this respect to be
but the type of the whole South) Is obvious to the
most casual observer, and he must have a heart of
stone who fails to be moved by the pictures of dia•
tress which everywhere present themselves. Let
me exhibit a few out of thousands: I met an
old friend, whom I had not seen for several years,
Who has been in the army since the commence.
meat of the war. His quarters are a few miles from
the city, where he is boarding with a planter.
When he applied for board, the planter said he
would Cheerfully aocommodate him, but he really
had not the means with which to purchase provi•
sins. The Federal efticer replied that he would
advance him money, which he did, and he then took
up his quarters with a man who before the rebellion
was living in comfort. Another picture : The party
which I accompanied came across a man who had
been a large sugar planter in Louisiana. The
year Laic: e the rebellion broke out he moved
to Richmond, for the purpose, as he said, of
educating his children, such advantages being rare
In the State from which he came. Ho purchased a
residence which still bears evidence of former ease
and plenty. When he came to the city, he knew
not what poverty was. When we saw him he had
but three dollars in the world, and when that was
spent, he did not know where the means were to
cane from to feed his family. During the four years
of the war, he had not purchaSed any clothing for
himself or family ; and although never accustomed
to labor, during that period he made all the dams
for his fatally. He was a good Union man, and
said that his rights had never been trampled upon
until the heresy of secession attempted to destroy
the Union. I Watt present many other cases,
equally distressing, which came under my notice
during the three days I remained In the city, but it
is unnecessary.
WHAT IT NBIMBD.
A groat difficulty under which the people of the
south now labor, and of which they freely speak, is
the want of means to recommence business. They
have no money, and with perhaps rare exceptions,
they will have no credit North. Under these cir
cumstances, Ido not see what they are to do. They
are hoping that Northern capitalists will Come
among them with their means, and by purchasing a
portion of their lands and town property, enable
them to start again In life, and time recover from
their utter prostration. All the persons with whom
I conversed, while feeling humiliated in the defeat
of their attempt to break up the Government, ac
cept the present Condition of things as definitely
settling - secession and slavery. They say they
went into the war believing in the right of se.
cession and In slavery. Now that the war has
settled both against them, they will adapt
themselves to the new order of things, and submit to
the decision. My own opinion Is that a free inter
change of sentiment between the people of the two
sections will do more than anything else to bring
about a true union. It will take but a oompara.-
Urals , short time to remove all the bitterness en
gendered by the war, and the delusion under which
the Southern people have labored as to our motives
and objects can readily be dispelled by the two
pecples coming together.
Tug FEW GOVERNOR'S ARRIVAL.
Governor Plerpont arrived here on Friday eve
ning. His arrival was announced by a salute, and
in the evening and on the following day quite a
number of the leading citizens of Richmond called
upon him to pay their respects. In Company with
a few friends, I called to 800 him at the Executive
mention on Saturday, and was much pleased In its.
toning to the policy whieh he Intended to pursue.
His course will be firm, yet conservative, and I have
no doubt that but a short time willelapsa before the

SWP.DISIC SYMPATHY.
The following is from the Stookholm Allehanda, a
leading Swedish paper:
"Abraham "Ormolu was the very embodiment of
the great principle which pervaded the war. The
vindicator of free labor, he !ell at the moment of ac
complishing its victory. Rig was a beautiful death.
A new martyr has been added to the champions of
liberty, and the name or Lincoln will be surrounded
for all times by a halo of glory. ills death will
Stigmatize forever the patrons of slavery, who,
fighting under the false pretence of maintaining
the independence of the individual States, had no
object but to uphold feudal institutions and enrich
themselves by the sweat of hordes of slaves."

The Russian Invaiide employs this language:
"The ehockirg news from America fills all honora
ble people, all friends of moderate and sensible
progress, withdeep sorrow. Lincoln has been taken
away at the very time when he might have hoped
to enjoy the fruits of his persevering energy in a war
carried on for a just, respectable, and a lawful cause. •
Amain may be proud of having produced such a
man as this. Undaunted by gigantic MlR:tattles,
and firm amid all opposition and sorrow, he never
doubted for a moment the high destiny of his pee
pie, and steadily pursued his course to the chosen
goal. A modest, moderate, and deeply religious
man, he was the last to sins his praises, and never
allowed himself to be carried away by the impale
of the hour. Never did his qualities shine more
brightly than in the last days of his life. Unmoved
by the people clamoring for revenge, untntimtdated,
by party cries, he spoke of mercy to the conquered,
and was intent only upon rebuilding the edifice of
the great Republic."

Payment of Our National Debt.
To the Editor of The Press :
SIR : The proposition now so widely discussed re
spading paying at once of our enormous war debt
has in itself so much of the element of grandeur
and originality that it is not wonderful it dazzles
almost all eyes, prone as we are, individually and
nationally, to mingle Fame with acts of honesty
and benevolence. But granting that the proposi-
Lion is possible, let us pause and reason for a mo-
ment :
First. Whether it Is expedient /
Second. Whether It Is just I
Third. Whether it is wile I
I submit that ft Is not expedient, because the
whole nation is perfectly able to pay the whole debt
gradually—perhaps as fast as it becomes due—and
the interest in the meantime. And the debt, from its
very magnitude, will be In these days of reeeir
Strnotion an immense chain binding together all the
sections of cur country, and making protection to
our manufactures a settled polio', instead of tariff
and free-trade disputes that must instantly arise on
the extinguishment of the debt.
I maintain that the payment of this vast debt by
men of the North would bo unjust as proposed, for
it should be paid by the whole country and not by
any section ; and why should the South be relieved
of her just portion of the debt, and the interest on
the same, incurred solely through her arrogance
and rashness ; withdrawing thus an immense
capi
tal ftom active business la the North, and Causing
many men, blinded, perhaps, by the desire of fame,
to subscribe large sums that might be of great bane
fit to their creditors or heirs; for who will affirm
that none of there "rich men" will fail in business
at some future day I
With due deference, I assert that the sudden pay
ment proposed would not be wise, because it would
give the wealthy men effecting it cause to gloat i
rapture over their higiztened benevolence and self
sacrifice, to their own great disadvantage morally;
while Envy would not fail to be cherished by the
poor Wass (equally loyal) WhO could take no part
in such splendid liberality.
The pen of Inspiration records that the heart of
man "is deceitful above all things," and I fear
greatly that this proposition is a temptation leading
us to some great national evil. Let us pause and
think. The times are big with events, and we know
not the future. How greatly by this would we be
enfeebled is ease of a foreign war forced upon us !
The nation has done wonders enough, by the aid of
God, to cover it with lasting glory. But self-adula
tion was a national sin before the war ; shall we,
after repenting of it, again court puni shment for
its recurrence I Let the dirbt be paid gradually by
the whoze country, and instead of a lightning flash
of glory and adulation, arising from a sudden end
sectional payment of it, our steady persevering ho
nesty will glow with increasing light to all ages;

The Late:• /President's Merciful Dispo-
The exhibition of public sympathy and horror'at
the aasaesination of our late Chief Magistrate, as
shown Mave' foreign court and eity, is indicative
of the supreme regard entertained for him. With
out attempting to distinguish between the honors
bestowed upon his memory in the Several metro
politan cities, it may be remarked that nowhere
was more sorrow or emphatic grief exhibited
than In Liverplol Itself. As Is known, that
place was in some measure the principal re
sort for Southern capitalists. There, it was
supposed, the popular mind was imbued with ea.

atrocity which deprived our nation of its head,
Was rebuked with dennnolationx the most elemor
one and emphatic. It does not admit of }ines-
Wm, that the sensible portion of all reboldom blotted
upon the death of Mr. Lincoln as the severest 0 10 W
that could be stricken upon their falling fortunes.
They had good sense enough to know that he, the
murdered Oilier Magistrate, was exerting his utmost
efforts in behalf of those who were penitent, and that
no other mind know so well, and no other hand
could so direct, the affairs of state as to save the
Sontlifrom its present perilous oomplioatione. In
view of this Condition of things, the sensible men of
the South might well deplore the blow, which, tails
It struck down our President, killed also their Lest,
best friend.
In this connection, we were sadly gra= d by
Conversing with the Hon. D. L. Phillips, m rshai
of the Southern district of Illinois, an Intimate per
sena friend of the late President. Mr. P. was in
Washington prior to and after the assassination.
He accompanied the funeral cortege on his return.
On Thursday, the day previous to the atrocity, he
spent nearly an hour and an half in conversation
with Mr. Lincoln. Mr. P. had just visited New
Orleans in reference to seine matters of pablio M
terest, and in hisieonferenee on that occasion en
joyed no little of the President's confidence. After a
tong interview, and being Interrupted by a meeting
of the cabinet, Mr. Lincoln appointed the ensuing
Saturday evening for a further conference. Alas he
never Saw him again alive l Our friend states, that on
this occasion, the day before the murder, he never
saw Mr. Lincoln in better health and spirits. The
traces of care had been effaced, and he was exceed.
Ingly joyous in the prospect of returning pesos and
a happy country. One fact, and in illustration of
the leniency contemplated by Mr. Lincoln, should
be Stated. Mr. Phillips learned that the late
Preildent contemplated introducing to his cabinet
a scheme of compensation to the southern owners
of emancipated slaves. This project was, of confer,
only in its !intention. No doubt Mr. Lincoln would
have perfected it. We all know how earnestly he

The Pursuit aud Death or Booth.
We extract from the London Times of May 11th
the following terse and very dramatic aooount of
the capture of the aSSIISBIII. AS a Capital condensa
tion it may be worth professional study to many of
our own journalists:
° A dramatic death has been the lot of the actor
who murdered President Lincoln. A fate too like
a soldier's has ended the career of one whose deed
has made every soldier on both sides indignant or
ashamed. The details which we receive from seve
ral sources of the death of this man and the capture
of his accomplice form one of the most interesting
narratives or tee war. The act of assassination was
in itself full of horrible audacity, and the sweet is
in keeping with it. When the murderer leaped from
the box on the stage, a height of nine or ten feet,
he broke his leg. Re is described as having been
bent double with the shook of his fall, bat he had
the energy to rise up and Shout Ont the motto of Vir
gitfa as the defence of his mime. Still the leap
probably proved fatal to him With that disregard
of pain which is often shown in the first moments of
a wound by men under the influence of strong ex
/*extent he was able with his broken leg to rash
across the stage, overturn those who ware in his
way, mount a horse, and gallop off. But In a short
time the hurt disabled him. Re was obliged to
have the leg set, and for the few days that he had
to live must have been in great pain and nearly
disabled. All the resources of the Washington
Government were employed to find him. Ma
refuge was at first unknown. Whether he
remained hidden in Washington or, its suburbs,
or was lurking in Maryland, or had contrived
to cross the Potomac, and heel pushed Into
the interior of Virginia with the intention of
escaping southward, could Only be guessed.
Those conversant with the pi:Altera state of the coun
try seem, however, to have formed a shrewd judg
ment as to the place of his oonaealment. In the
low lands of Maryland which - lie to the met and
south of Washington, between the Potomac and
Chesapeake Bay, exists a population which is said
to be strongly Confederate in feeling. They are
not very numerous ; they cannot be very rich ; their
country is swampy and unhealthy, bat such an
asylum as they had they were suspected of being
willing to offer to John Wilkes Booth. In this re
gion, accordingly, the United States cavalry and
police made a strict search. They were furnished
With that potent instrument of detection, a photo
graph of the criminal, and for ten days they par
sued him incessantly. A little army was employed
on this service, and at last success rewarded the
exertions of Colonel Baker, to whom had been
committed the task of discovering the asses-
Sin. The details of the capture will be found
in OUT Columns to-day. Booth, It was discovered,
had really secreted himself in the Peninsula, hat
finding, doubtless, that hot pursuit was made after
him, he had crossed the river into Virginia, at a
place called Port Royal. Ile was followed, and In
the night of Tuesday. the 25th of April, a party ar
rived at the house of an old man named Garrett,
who it proved had harbored the fugitives. Ths old
man and his son were forced by threats to reveal
their place of concealment, which was a neighbor
lug barn. Then followed a singular scene. For
more than an hour Old the pursuers parley with the
assassin. The correspondents of the New York pa
pers tell the story with little variation, and there
can be no doubt that Kis In the main correct. Booth
preseeved his bravado to the last and IS reported to
have asked the soldiers to retire to a distance,so
that there might be a fair fight between them. Hie
companion Wes less obstinate, and soon gave him
self up. Booth, In the end, was shot by a certain
Sergeant Corbett, a man of English descent.
One of the Booth Conspirators Arrested
For a few days past We have been aware that the
H. S. Detectives, connoted with the provost mar
allars office, were "working up" a ease which
might prove of benefit to the Government, and also
that a man had been arrested on suspicion of being
one of the Booth conspirators, but we did not feel at
liberty to make known what we know of.the matter, -
lest the law might be cheated of some of Its legiti
mate Victims. The Commercial of last evening,
however, announces in Its last evening , e Issue, the
arrest of W. D. Beers,
on suspicion of being 00n
fleeted with the Boothconspiracy, as follows:

since, probably two weeks ago, and took apart

until no day a card, on which was written the fol

name was written on the register, was picked up, as
we are informed, somewhere near the entrance to

Beers was arrested at the Bonney Rouse on Thurs.

of this we have no knowledge.

effect of the war IS shown In the fact that, compared

In the year 1880—a diminution of 405 marriages. or
1,529 lees than in the year IEI6O, and an Increase of

is, therefore, only 2,583, Which Is 8,735 less than In
the year 1862, and 10,420 less than in the year 1861.
The number of marriages (10,873) was 141 less than
in 1862, and 405 less than to 1860. These are also the
results of the war. The figures show a slight frac

What Will be Moue With Lending Rebel&
It is believed that the farther intention of the Go
yen:anent on the amnesty question, as far as It has
taken form, is to India for treason alt or most of the
persons excepted from the proolamation, and when
they are arrested to try them for treason, and on
conviction to sentence them severally to be hanged
by the neck until dead. It is also proposed to keep
a vigilant eye on those embraced in the amnesty
who shall make themselves exceptions, tO it by re
fusing to take the oath which it preScribes, and
when such persons shalt become obnoxious and Mis
chievous by their pro elaveryism and disloyalty,
they will be arrested and tried for treason in a Man
ner similar to the above-mentloned class, and, like
them, sentenced to death. It is believed that when
such persistent rebels shall have been indloted, ar
rested, tried, convloted, and sentenced to die a
felon's death for treason, they will bo deprived of
all power to make themselves dangerous, even if the
President should see tit to pardon the most of them,
or remit the penalties against them. A convicted
traitor, who is at large by favor of Executive de
Menu, Will he a very harmless /venture, it Is
argued, whereas many of the returning rebels are
mcre pompous and soltoomplacent than before the
war, refusing to speak to old friends who had been
Unlonifts, and organizing into political factions to
resume control of the Southern States in the name
of State sovereignty and slavery, These heresies
are not yet given up, but they form the nucleus of
partisan leagues throughout the Border States,
which are full of danger. They not only vote
against the policy of the Administration, but, as in
Virginia. combine through threeluartors of the
State to ignore the (}overlent, and defy and vlo•
late the law. The trials and convictions spoken Of
as included in the prospective policy of the Admin.
Istration, will take place in the District Courts of
the Border and Southern States as fast as they are
organized. This will probably be their first work;
and it will be prosecuted with no feeling of matters
or revenge, but solely to vindicate law and restore
order in the land. Some of these trials will soon
take place in Virginia, where they are much need
ed, and where the outrageous °clarinet of the trai

Tare Anon• ernawr.—One of the most talented
comedienncs now upon our stage in the higher line
of comedy, commenced a brief engagement at this
theatre, on last Monday. We allude to Mrs. John
Drew, the manageress of the house. Tide lady
has that keenly perceptive vitality which enables
her to realize the Lady Teazles and Lady Gay Spank
ers of the comic drama in a way which we are sorry
to say, is at present, rarely, If ever, equalled in this
country. She consequently draws, when she does
appear, which is far too seldom, the very best class
Of audience, and an audience which is intensely ap.
preciative of those delicate points of excellence
which she brings out with suck a thorough truth
and nicety. On Wednesday last she embodied the
character of Lady Selina Reffle-ticket bathe 'comedy
of "How she Loves Him." It would be useless to
attempt pointing Out the particular excellencies she
exhibits. Her dashing and lady-like manner of ren
dering its somewhat eccentrical conception deserves
the warmest eulogy, and fully justifies the public,
In crowding this theatre as it does, in spite of the
intense heat of the weather. This evening she
takes a benefit, which will, or course, be thronged
in the extreme, when She appears for the only time
as Aurora Floyd.
Tire WALicur-Srirgur.—We regret to say that,
with this week, Miss Lucille Western closes one of
the most brilliant engagements she has ever had in
this city. It has mattered little to her what might
be the state of the weather, or how comparatively
high or low thetemperature might range, the public,
who have always been faithful to her attractions
and generously appreciative of her genius, has kept
the ranges of seats closely packed with attentive
admirers, who were equally liberal in their tears or
their applause as they had been in the cash they
paid for their adraission. On Wednesday last she
played Don Caster de Dazan. Her Don Cecsar, al
though exceedingly clever, labors under the disad
vantage which all doublet and hose parts must when
they are undertaken by a female. However, those
who were present did not fail to relish and applaud
It. Let us, however, auk Miss Western why the
does not attempt a more ambitious flight than
the merely sensational or doublet-and-hosen
drama ? With her talents we should desire to see
her attempting such parts as Lady Macbeth or the
Duchess of MeV, at least occasionally. These, wore
they successful, would give her a broader wreath and
earn her a far higher standing, although seemly,
perhaps, so pecuniarily a eueoessful one. This eve-
Ding she will appear as Peg Woffington, the come
dy of "Masks and Faces," and Manette, In "Mischief
Making," on the occasion of her farewell bene
fit, and to-morrow evening concludes her engage
ment, upon which occasion we understand that the
mason at thia theatre will close.

George Augustus Sala, in a letter from Paris,
Says " The latest French bonnet Is like Hudibras ,
story of the bear and the fiddle—begun and broke
off In the middle. -It is a magnificent but incom
plete work, like Buckle's History of Civilization,
or like Don Juan. For ornaments the ran is upon
steel. The quantity of minute marine stores worn
by the fair ladies of France is astounding. After
steel comes straw. The ladles appear to have tin
plaited their old straw bonnets and stuck them all
over their dresses. A mantle or jacket tessalated
with real straW in fantestiO devices is much pa
tronized, and imitation straw for fringe is becoming
universal. Finally, crinoline seems to be really
going Olit, and the robes a queue, or long trains are
coming in. The latest and ertralest plan is to have
a petticoat of the same shape as the robe, brief in
front and elongated behind ; and the dress is looped
up in front to show the boots, and it is to be pre
turned, to prevent the fair wearer tripping herself
up every second pace or so."
The Empress Eugenie made up her royal mind
that her youtg cousin, the Princess Clotilde, * must

color, which the independent Princess forthwith re
turned, without thanks or comment, and at the very
next good opportunity appeared attired from bonnet
to dress in colour de rose.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL,
There was a general suspension of business yester

The banks and other publie institutions were ctosea,
Including the Stock Exchange, the Gold Room and
Corn Exchange. As the observance of the day ap•
plied equally as well to New l'"ork, we have no quo•

The European news by the Persia is financially
interesting• The London Times of the 20th inst., in
its city article says "Rumors of all kinds were cir
culated, among which the most prominent was that
the Emperor Napoleon had been urgently recalled
to Paris by his ministers, in eorteequlnce of the
prospect of American aggreselon upori Mexico. Not
the slightest confirmation could be obtained of this
or any of the other reports, and the whole is believed
to have been solely a concoction for the purpose of a
eertain set of operators, especially as the final prime
from Paris afforded no Indication of any unfavora
ble news having transpired in that city."
.fintther report of the day, referred to in another
journal, was that the Emperor ktaximillanturd been
shot.
The London Times' oity article says, 111 reference
to this: "Yesterday afternoon foreign securities
were thrown upon the market almost without regard
to prices. The chief fall was in Mexican, which
closed nearly th:ee•quarters per cent. lower—the
anomalous fact being remarkable, that while there
are numerous purchasers in Europe of United States
bonds', every indication of a possible 000tipation of
Mexico by the Americans created an effect as if It
wore the certain forerunner of conlisoetlon or repu
dtatt,on,"
The London News , city article says : ' , ln so far
as the unfavorable rumors, circulated yeSterdal aG
ternoon refer to continental affairs, their correct•
lona seems to be disproved by the steadiness of the
Paris Bourse. At the same time, it is certain that
no that intelligenoe can have come from Ame•
rica."
The Paris correspondent of the London Times
saps: "There are two subjects of disquiet which
make the Empress and the Ministers long for the
return of the Emperor. Those are the recruiting
offices for volunteers for Mexico said to. be opened
in towns of the United States, and the opposition
of the committee of the Chamber to the alienation
Of the State forests."

The New York Commercial Advertiser, in a oare•
fully prepared article on petroleum, gives the fol.
lowing interesting partioulars as to the capital in
petroleum is not difficult to make a proxi
mate estimate of the amount of capital represented
by the yetroleum interest ; for the Madness is eon
ducted almost exclusively by companies, the par
ticulars of whose capital are generally made pub
lic. The amount of capital stook issued by the re
spective companies varies from e 5,000 to 810,000,000.
At the close of March the amount of par capital of
the commies in the several cities where the trade
has centered was as follows

It thus appears that at the Close of March there
were companies organized in the United States, the
combined par capital of which amounted to over
$580,000,000. At the present time the aggregate
stands, no doubt, at fully $60,000,000. The total
number of companies in existence at the beginning
of this month was 1,085, and their average per °apt
