The Exodus to Europe.
- With the accustomed love of display,
*ostentatious expenditure, and avidity for
costly novelties, which have increasingly
become prominent among our national
characteristics, very many of the inhabi
tants of this country appear busily en
gaged in burning the candle at both ends.
:Hence the increased orders for costly
clothing and magnificent luxuries from
Europe, and the rapid exodus of our
gentry to make the grand tour—which
includes visits to London, Paris, Munich,
Dresden, the mountains of Switzerland and
Italy, and the famous cities of the latter
country, which are equally rich in histori
rical antiquities and associations, in me
diteval and modern architecture, and in
the possession of many of the finest
paintings and sculptures in the world.
Every steamship for Europe that has
left this country during the last two
months has carried out crowds of " our
beet society," who are resolved, cost
what it may, to avail themselves of the
- first great lull in our public affairs since
the Rebellion broke out early in 1861.
Of course, that indispensable- rade mecum,
" Harper's Handbook for Travellers in
Europe," has been in immense demand.
So, too, have been the comforting letters
of credit, which can be purchased in
Philadelphia, Eeliv York, and other great
seaboard cities : a charming description
of correspondence, which authorizes the
bearer to draw money from every En
ropean banker of note, (we might say Of
notes,) from Liverpool to Venice, or even
to Smyrna, ijunattstioim.p.-,
If there were no limit to the sums thus
. .
vi umpiva.l4_.6...—ret - trte - 'oil - Mustless purse
of l'ortunatus. Unfortunately for indivi
duals, and more happily for bankers, the
amount to be drawn is meanly dependent
upon the amount paid in when the circu
lar letters of credit are issued. If you
pay in five thousand dollars, that is the
limit of credit which will be granted by
the banker. This is on a par with the
tradesmen's practice—not confined to any
one city or country—of asking you, unless
he has actual knowledge of and reasonable
faith in you, to pay cash for any articles
you have a desire to obtain from his shop
or store.
It has been calculated that during the
travelling season which has just set in, and
which lasts from May to November, only
six months,
the expenditure of American
tourists in Europe wilt not be less than
$3,000,000. This may appear to be a vast
sum, but if we estimate the number of such
travellers at three thousand, (and they will
be on the wing during the next three
months,) and count the expense for living
and for all sorts of miscellaneous purchases,
at only one thousand dollars for each, and
we believe it will be a great deal more,
the three million dollars are easily ac
counted for. That money, by the way,
removed from this country, to contribute
to the wealth of Europe, is about as much
lost to us as if it had been cast into the
lowest depths of the Atlantic. By far the
greater number of our money-spending
people—those who flourish gloriously at
the fashionable watering-places, where
ladies change their dress three or four
times a day and champagne is dispensed
almost as freely as if it were no more costly
than ginger-beer—will spend a greal deal
on articles of dress imported from Europe,
which will be all for the good of trade.
But, until we have equivalent native
exports, this expendittue, also, will
draw great deal of gold out of the United
States ; it has done so, to the tune of some
millions, in the last three weeks.
What native exports are we likely to
have, as offsets to the value of the foreign
manufactures, mostly of luxury, which,
'received here in 1865, must be paid for in
the same time ? Petroleum has not been
interfered with by the war. tn 4

4.1 st, fY e learn, from Mr. Boxes
valuable little book, " Petroleum and Pe
troleum Wells," that, in 1864, the exporta
tion of petroleum from the United States
consisted of 31,792,972 gallons—an increase
on that of 1863, and nearly thrice as much
as we parted with in 1862. Of cotton,
rice, tobacco, turpentine, and such South
ern products, not much can be sent abroad
in 1865. But it is looked upon as almost
certain that England will need from us a
large portion of grain and flour.
Present appearances, as we learn from
the provincial papers there, indicate another
great harvest in England. The Liverpool
_Mercury says : " The splendid weather
which has prevailed in all parts of the
United Kingdom during the month of May
and the first week of June, rendersit cer
tain that this will be one of the most pro
ductive seasons ever known in England."
With even average weather in July and
August, an unusually fell yield of grain
crops might be expected—the harvesting
to begin early in August. In the first week
in June, we are told, "in the south of Eng
land, the wheat is beginning to shoot into
ear in the valley of the Thames, and on
the rich soil§ of Kent and Essex. This
will be the case in all the eastern counties
in a few days, and in the northern and
western counties by the middle of June."
Even the root and grass crops are in prime
condition. They tailed in 1864; and as
sheep and cattle largely feed and fatten
upon them, that failure made the prices of
butchers' meat advance, though not in the
enormous ratio of exaction in our markets.
The English paper from which we have
quoted says that "the difference between
a good harvest and a bad one in the United
Kingdom is equal in money value to some
fifty or, sixty millions sterling. The whole
area of England, Scotland, and Ireland is,
in round numbers, 80,000,000 of statute
acres. Hence, an average difference of ten
shillings an acre over the whole country is
equal to forty millions sterling, and a dif
ference of twenty shillings per acre is equal
lo eighty millions. The difference between
a very good and a very bad harvest is proba
bly equal to a hundred millions over the whole
,of the three kingdoms, though a considerable
portion of the increase or decrease is only
men gradually in the increase or decrease
of live stock, and of tillage available for
the production of succeeding crops. The
refuse of one year's crops furnishing the
tillage of the next, it takes some little time
to realize all the advantages of such a har
vest as that which seems to be promised in
the present beautiful season." This gain
of a hundred millions sterling to England
($500,000,000) will, correspondingly, be a
2088 to us, who, in the event of a bad. har
wed there, would have to make good the
requisite supply of food. Hence, we cannot
admire the prudence of folks who, instead
of looking ahead, in a prudent manner, for
a rainy day, have determined to spend
their money in European travel. We shall
have, in all probability, as productive a
harvest here as the English count upon;
but it will be bad for us if our surplus,
after feeding our own people, is not re
quired across the Atlantic. When—vast
production being in excess of the demand—
our grain and flour become so low-priced
as to be little remunerative, it is bad for all
classes, and not for the farmers only. Un
der such circumstances it is not prudent
nor patriotic to spend money in foreign
countries, or, remaining at home, to send
it away in payment for foreign luxuries.
"rICEE EXPERIENCE of the rebel prisortters
.at the North has done much to mollify and
remove their old prejudices. They wit
neSsed not only our thriving towns and vil
lageS, and a busy, flourishing people, whose
prosperity during the war formed a marked
-contrast with the misery and destitution that
abounded in their own homes, but they
were treated kindly and generously. Many
of them had been taught that the North
would pine in penury as soon as she lost
" Southern patronage," and that if ever
they were captured they would be inauited
and assaulted at every Northern station.
Instead of all this, they were involuntarily
impressed with the superiority' of our in.
dustrial system and touched by the' consi
deration and compassion that were freely
manifested. These captured soldkrs of the
rebellion, whose valor was the only solid
support of their wicked and desperate
leaders, learned that the loyal States are
too powerful to be resisted, and at the same
time too humane to wantonly wrong any
portion of the American people, or to fur
nish justifiable pretexts for armed insurrec
tion.
Light Weight.
The Commissioner of Markets has re
ported to the City Councils that between
January 1 and June 14, 1865, the clerk of
the South and Eleventh-street markets had
seized 269 lumps of butter, of short weight,
213 lumps of which he had had handed
over to the Guardians of the Poor. How
the other fifty-six lumps were disposed of
is not stated. The seizure was made, of
course, under sanction of the law. It
would gratify public curiosity, we can
assure the Commissioner of the Markets,
if he would report whether there had been
any short.weight seizures in any other
markets than the two which he has named.
As the respectable market-people suffer
from the misconduct of the few who thus
try to defraud purchasers, it would be
only just to all that the name of each
offender, the number of his stand in the
market, and his residence, should be pub
lished, with the date and particulars of the
offence. The honest dealers, who form
the majority of the market-folks, would
thus be exonerated, and the guilty ones ex
posed, with the brand of disgrace upon
them. The mere seizure of light-weight
articles is a very inadequate punishment—
is scarcely any -- pume,...",..
very serious offence ; and the District ..tt.t,
un-uv.r, auty it is to protect the
&?glif ton3ling the terrors of the law to
bear upon each and every person who
seeks to defraud by light weight. Fine
or imprisonment, or both, would be very
useful in such cases.
'A Hint 1016,, Country ileighborhoodln.
A short time ago we were the guest, at semen
rural reunion in one of those counties in the vicini
ty of Philadelphia, where the land and the land-
Owner are alike well eultivated, wealthy, and
flourishing.
The meeting was eminently social in its charac
ter; being an afternoon gathering, with a tea•party
for climax. The participants were a certain num
ber of farmers, with their wives. Alter sometime
allotted to interchange of greetings and social In
teroourSe among the whole party, the gentlemen
and ladies separated into distinct committees or
clubs, meeting in different rooms, under the several
titles of "The Farmers' and laardeners , Club,"
and "The nommacepers. Club."
The gentlemen, in a very systematic and business
fashion,disouseed topics Of common intareet, relating
their personal experience upon the matters under
consideration in a clear and practical manner, such
all the treatment of fruit trees, the best means of
gathering their luscious and fragile crops, and the
surest method of cultivating the blackberry and
rendering It remunerative.
While the gentlemen thus considered the minutia!,
of the most important arts of husbandry, their wives,
in the adjacent apartment, devoted themselves very
effectively to improving the methods and facilitating
the labore Of that most essential branch of domestic
Industry by Which the comfort of our in-door daily
life Is provided for.
Practical questions, snob as the best method of
making certain kinds of pastry, the care of young
poultry, and the most certain way of raising and
fattening them, had been referred to individual
members at the previous meeting, and they were
now called upon for their own experience, as well
as any theories or knowledge that they had been
able to collect upon the flajOGl. Those questions
were invariably well and thoroughly ens waved ;
but, to render the consideration etill more effective,
every lady present was in turn asked for her opt-
Won and experience. This proved a most admirable
method for eliciting knowledge, for even in cases
when moral members only agreed with an opi.
nion already expressed, it gained additional
weight of authority, while variations, no met
ter how trifling, 'were often valuable hints'
eagerly tresenred up for the advantage of future
days and dinners. Some described experiments
that they had made since the question of the pre.
vious meeting had drawn their attention to the
eubjeet,and after twenty ladies had severally, fully,
yet concisely, given their experience of luck or 111.

BP R 8 advantages -to be derived from the
homeliest and plainest method of dealing with euoh
matters. There are whole libraries of theories upon
agriculture, and wagon -loads of cook-books equally
deficient in those very minutia' whisk are essential
to success, and which can only be derived from per.
sonal experience.
The fine arts have liberalized and elevated them-
Selves above the commonest trades, especially by
throwing open their , arcane to the neophiton, and
have dignified themselves by the liberality with
which eminent artists reveal to the brotherhood the
secrets which they have themselves won by patient
industry or conquered by genius. The professions,
particularly that of medicine, have won great honor
and distinction in the same way, and trades and
guilds follow a similar method as the only plan of
raising themselves Into arts and elevating their
workers above the rank of mere unskilled artisans.
A similar course of action would have a most re
vorable effect upon agriculture, which may in all
%Imes be considered, at least until recently, one of
the most unprogressive of the arts. Mother Earth
is too often left to work her own sweet will upon the
tender seeds confided to her care, and the abundant
crop is too frequently due, more, to her bounty and
to the ministrations of that gentle and fructifying
rain that falleth alike-upon the field of the Indolent
and the laborious, than to the skill and Care of the
husbandman. The vegetable garden is especially
subject to this sad fate, while the mistress devotee
her attention indoors, and the farmer concentrates
his upon the wheat-field, forgetting the health and
fortune that might be derived from the neglected
" patch."
A long afternoon gave plenty of opportunity for
the consideration of various topics, and then the
clubs united to listen to an "essay" by one of the
members. This was also of sterling character and
practical tendency, and the author most earnestly
urged the agrielllttiriete to the renewed efforts no.
cessary for the effective and cheerful meeting of
those additional demands which our Government
must continue to make upon each and every citizen.
These kindred clubs have been in operation five
years, and the members so unanimously agree in
the immense advantage derived from them, that we
present this slight and meagre sketch for the con•
sideration of other country neighborhoods, who have
not inaugurated any similar agreeable and useful
manner of occasionally meeting their friends, and
comparing notes upon their fortunes by field and
fat.
DEATH OF ADMIRAL DtIPONT.—Rear
Admiral Samuel P. Dupont, the third in rank in
the naval service of the United States, died at the
La Pierre House, yesterday morning, at a itaarter
before five o'clock, of &nee° of the throat. He was
sixty-two years of age, having been born at Bergen
Point, New Jersey, September 27,1803. He left his
home, at Wilmington, Delaware, on Monday hat,
accompanied by his wife, to remain a short time in
this city. He stopped at the La Pierre House. He
has been rollering for some months with an Rife°.
tion of the chest. He felt so much better, however,
on Monday that the visit was undertaken. He has
been in good health since his arrival In Macey, and
he remarked to a friend on Thureday last that he
thought he had completely recovered frOm hie dis
ease. On Thursday evening he wee more than
ordinarily cheerful, and some of his friends remarked
that he was In excellent spirits. Yesterday morn.
ing , at about (Our o'clock, he awoke with a choking
sensation. Ivirs. Dupont immediately sent for Si
physician, but before one arrived the Rear Admiral
was dead. His loss will be regretted by many
friends, and - severely felt in our naval service. Ai
soon as his death was known, all the leading naval
officers in the city called at the hotel to testify their
high appreciation of the deeeased. Among others the
commandant at the navy. yard and staff were present.
The body was taken to Wilmington yesterday after'
noon. Admiral Dupont was a grandson of Dupont do
NeMoure, the Well.known French economiet and
statesman who figured in the first Revolution, and
who,on the retard of Napoleon to France, came to this
country. He and his son, the father of the admiral,
founded the powder mills on the Brandywine, near
Wilmington. The admiral was, at the early ago of
twelve years, commissioned a midshipman, and
made his first cruise in 'the Franklin, under Coln
modem Stewart, In 1817. In 1845 he commanded
the frigate Congress, on the California coast. In
Me he commanded the steam frigate Minteada,
which conveyed the United States Minister to
China. In January, 1861, he was appointed to the
command of the Philadelphia navy yard. His
achievements since that time are well remembered.
Called upon by the Secretary of the Navy In the
summer of 1881, relative to the occupation o' a
depot on the Southern coast, he recommended Port
Royal, and was placed in command of the expedi
tion against that place. The result of that erred!.
lion was the brilliant victory on the 7th of Novem
ber,l.BBl, when he captured the two strong forte on
Hilton Head -and-Bay Point. It was the first im
portant naval success or the war, and sent a thrill
of hope and joy throughout the land. Other
pointe on the coast wore succeesfally occupied
by him, and the blockade was rigidly enfor c ed, H e
commanded the naval forces in the several attempts
against Charleston in 1882 and 1863 and during the
year nearly every Important point on the Snuthern
coast was recovered, Admiral Dupont was relieved
of the command of the South Atlantic Squadron on
July 4th, 1863, when he was succeeded by Admiral
Dahlgren. Since that time Admiral Dupont has
not been on any active duty.
Vice Admiral Pansgut and Rear Admiral Golds.
borough are his seniors in rank. He wad one of the
first nine rear admirals on the active list, appointed
by tiles President under the act or me. In private
life he was mutt loved. He was an sesompilleked
Christian gentleman. He has been in the navy
nearly lortrnine years, twenty four of which he wag
on lea service, and twelve on other duty. He has
written one or two valuable works. .

Catholicism on American Affairs. -
The paper from the pen of Clountydontalemblit,
the distinguished French author, On lt The Victory
of the North in the United States," Strongly ex.
pressed the admiration which the triumph of the
cause of Freedom on our shores hes awakened In
the liberal feelings of the lovers of liberty In Europe,
But besides the merely euperfichn expression of
gratification at late events, he develops a close and
critical malyals of the causes of our struggle, and
the reiults Of our great victory.
The article, which ocouplee forty-eight pages of
Le Correspondent, opens with a burst of thanks
giving to God who hath granted this victory. _
" Tee," he says, "we should manic Him, beoauee, la
this grand and terrible tomcat between liberty and
Servitude, liberty has issued victorious. Liberty,
wbioh among us is accustomed to so much missy.•
praiser -don, treason, and °unfasten, compromised
and dishonored by false friends and Unworthy Otmal
pions, wee in need of MID of then greet revelatlarui,
Which should at once Impress all beholdeis with her
Inestimable merit."
M. de hthatelembert acknowledges that, since the
excitement clamed by the nem of the fall of Rion
mend and the aseasslnation of tit. Lincoln, the
enemies of the North in Europe ate again Indulging
in diatribes against the Northern States; and it
seems to be to euntiterect their misonievous influence
that illoutalemeert has written this able essay.
Without claiming every virtue for the Northertiers,
or accusing the trourhernere of any special venom
qualities, he aesertathat "an instinct, involuntary
perhaps, yet omnipotent and invincible instantly
ranges on the side of the slaveholdere all the se
cret or avowed partisans of fanaticism, and of ab
solutism in Europe; /repeat, Chat alt the enemies of
liberty, whether pubifc or private, political or theologi
cal, have been ranged on the side of the South." lie
adds that he is forced to confess that the majority
of Boman Catholics In this country are in favor
of slavery, and, excepting Dr. Monism, there is
among them no prominent champion of the eman
cipation of the blacks. This is a notable statement
for a Litman Catholic to make.
"The Americans," he mos, "have known how to
make war. They have - made it with iaeontes tibia
energy, Ben, and perseverance; they have become
the prey of no general, of no dictator, of no Mier.
They have fought out that war, more Minh, more
terrible than any other—a anti war. In netting it
they have displayed all the qualities, ail the vir
tues which Dilate great military nations. They have

Be also praises the bravery of the South and
the abnegation Of SOUtherti women during the war ;
and vleiVing the North and South as again one
nation, holes up tide Burped:kg people as a mar.
velions example to all Europe. He declares that
neither France ner any other European netted
could have supported with snob calm resolution tee
formidable ordeal of civil war and military exalts

vernment were assassinated to-morrow, one
half of the French people would demand that
the other half should be thrown into dungeons;

midst of a fete murders the Otdef Magistrate,
a man who won every heart and quieted
every uneasiness. But neither consternation nor
imagination muds these truly great people forget theft'.
selves. On the day alter a 8 melt as on the day before
the crime, they remained masters of themselves and
their destiny; not a taw is violated or altered,
not a journal suppressed or suspended, not a
violent or emception at measure troubles the regular and
natural march of society. The statue of liberty has
never been veiled. The Awaken/ vlotory also, says
our writer, has been pure and legitimate. Never has
so great a war been so free from excesses as teas
waged by the North against the Sonia. He speaks
also of the treatment of prisoners and wounded as
manifesting the progress of true humanity and
Uhrbdian
. . . . .
M. Montalembert devotes much space to a refute?
of the theory that not slavery, but local and tariff
affairs were the cause of the war ; and he closes the
second part of his essay with this apostrophe: " Ott
Providence! generous, luminous, ingenious Provi
dence ! It was a black regiment that first entered
the capital of the insurgents, that first trod tne
Streets of that Richmond so long deemed impregna
ble. These despised Meeks, emancipated by vie
tory, marched at the head of the liberating army ;
they were received by the acclamations of the
black slave brethren whom they had oome to de
liver. Do the victors avenge the injuries in-
Meted upon their race ? Do they wish to re.
taliate on the whites the mimes, inseparable from
slavery, of which their fathers, their mothers, and
their sisters had been so long the victims 4 No !no !
for—culmination of happiness and honor—these
slaves of yesterday penetrated the capital of the
als,veholders, seized it, became and remained its
masters, and not the shadow of retaliation tarnished
their victory 1 I call history to attest to it ; the sun
has never lightened up so grand, so consoling a spec
tacle."
The remainder is devoted to the more purely pc.
?idea). phases of American sawn and suggestions
as to the future of the Oonetry, of whtoh XL. Monts&
lambert proves himself so earnest a friend. Ile
fears more for the United States from interior dile.

conciliation and moderation.

The last sensation at Niagara is the rerformarteen
of a Harry Leslie, who is styled the A.merlean 131(3n
d%. On Thursday week that individual walked the
river on a rope, some two hundred feet above the
water.
Leslie bad stretched his rope across the river at
about the location Weeded by Blondin in his seeond
season, a point some de hundred feet below the
bridge, over the first of the terrific rapids ooramono
log at that place. It has a span of about eight hon.
Med feet. The Mtge Of the Current at this , point Is
tremendous, having a ;powerful effect upon the soft
tater on the bridge or banks. The line is about a
four-Inch Manila, and is stayed by eighty guys,
twenty leading from a side to each bank, an open
space of about thirty feet occurring in the centre.
The heavy Jain during the day bad contracted tea
tackle to a high degree, and the rope had bat little
swag, a third of the length being nearly horizontal.
Leslie is about twenty.eight years of age, five feet
eight inches In height, rather slight in build, but
lithe and ag lie, and possessed of great nerve and
console. At 632 he emerged from the stand on the
American side, Immediately clearing a perpendicu
lar precipice of ever two hundred feet, and his wife
was observed to take her position at the end of the
rope, and watch his progress with intense interest.
Amid the grandeur of the surrounding scenery the
daring adventurer seemed like a 11111putimi upon the
airy course, and his appearance Wan the Signal for
a sudden silence, only disturbed by the roar of the
restless waters beneath._lie proceeded. slowly and
cautiously, and when about onelourth of the dis
tance, sat down upon the rope and rested a few
seconds. Again resuming kin journey, he was no
ticed to hesitate at Intervals, as if fatigued, but
atter passing the centre space he stepped very regu
larly and without hesitation until the stand On the
Canada shore was gained. The time occupied in
crossing was six minutes and forty-eight seconds.
After a brief rent on the Canada side, employed in
a familiar chat, Leslie again poised the balancing
pole, and started on his return, the time being 13
minutes to 6 ofolock. Re proceeded down tile in

On reaching the opposite itudine, an usually noted

Colonel Mosby Reported in Lynchburg.
Some little stir was created in the city yesterday
by the report that Colonel Mosby, the Celebrated
partisan chieftain, was In Lynchburg. Various ru
mors were afloat aa to the cause of his appearance,
but the following are, we believe, the facts of the
case : Some days since Colonel Mosby's brother
came to Captain Swank, provost marshal of this
city, to inquire If Mosby would be paroled on
coming in and =rendering to the authorities.
Captain Swank replied that he would make In.
guides upon the subject and give him an answer in
a few: ays. Day beiore yesterday, he again called
to see the marshal upon the subjcot, and was told
that VOlOllOl Mosby would be paroled If he Would
come In and give himself up. In accordance with
this Information, Mosby came Into Lynchburg yes
terday, and applied at the provost marshal's office
for a przol. Captain Gurnett happened to be at
tending to the unties or the office at the time, and,
not being aware of the arrangement, sent to Colonel
Duncan for last/modems. Re was immediately or-
dered not to parole Colonel Mosby until further
orders from Colonel Duncan. In the meantitne, a
damson was received from Richmond, and MOaby
was ordered to leave town immediately, while the
provost guard were instructed ti sec that he did so
without molestation or hindrance. The despatch
is generally supposed to have been an order for his
arrest, probably under a misapprehension of the
facts, and, as he had come here under an Implied
safeguard from the military authorities, they felt
bcdind in honor not to take advantage of the act.

AN ALLEGED IMMENSE DE-
A BROOKLYN MERCHANT THE ACCUSED
A NUMBER OF MRSCEANTS TEE VICTIMS.
Smith J. Eastman, a produce dealer at NO. 40
Broad street, New York, and who lives in Brooklyn,
mysteriously disappeared from both plan% and It
is alleged he lea defaulter tO the amount of eaoo 000.
The BrOoklyn papers say , that Eastman Is wen
known in that city. He has been considerably in
political life, taking an salve part in the action of
the party to which he belonged, though holding no
Mims, save the uninfinential one of member of the
Board of Education, to whichhody he was attaoked
for several years. He has occupied a fine house and
grounds on Clinton avenue, kept a stylish establish
ment, lived in a comfortable manner, and been gen
erally reputed worth from three hundred thoueand
to half a million of dollars.
He was engaged In the provision business, was
at one time a member of the well-knowa firm of
Brush & Co., was afterwards senior partner in the
house of Eastman Se Lloyd, and has lately been
doing business In the firm of Eastman & GO. He
operated largely in his own Immediate line of bust•
nets, and was specially wall known throughout the
interior, with the merchants of which he was widely
connected. His credit in business. °trellis has been
generally good. and, though KM Claim to have sae•
petted its soundness for several years, ho has had
no ditliCtilty it using it extensively, as the amount of
his defalcation shows. •
Eastman left his store on Saturday ostensibly to
go "uptown," but he soon Bent a note to his part
ner, saying that he had to go to Bonen. It is sup
posed he took passage there for Europe. The Brook

It has transpired that Eastman was not involved,
but that he has probably been enabled to take a
large amount of money With him. Hie broker, H.
Edmund T. N. Gibson, of No. bi William street,
New York, and residing at No. 67 Pierrepont street,
is believed to be involved to a large amount. He
also obtained for Eastman a considerable amount of
money upon the certificates of the deposit of lard,

These Gibson accepted, and also cashed Eastman's

At present everything is quiet in the vicinity of
the recent riot on Staten Island. A. ten-pounder
brass piece is in position, manned by a crew from
the ,revenue matter Naugatuok. Besides the Nau
gatuck another revenue gutter has been moored in
the vicinity of the scene of disturbance. Thera is
very little apprehension of a renewal of the riot,
and the feeling induced by " sober second thought"
seems now to control all the parties and their
friends interested in the late escapade.
The siccounts of the affair, though mainly in att.
cordence with that already published, differ slightly
from each other—the citizens giving one version,
the military another, and the naval (Moors a third.
The account furnished by Captain J. W. Wilson,
commander of the United States revenue Gutter
Naugatuck, Is from the least blamed point of vie
in •
The first in timation he had or lam =
Ming of the musessavy-aatt-coosoroooo o f t h e deters.
He feared an attack of some kind on the stores at
and ordered the crow of the outter,
numbering thirty men, immediately under arms,
and was proceeding to examine the Cause or the dia.
'Gunpoint., when he met a corporal of the 66th rung
zing towards him. He said that a mob had attacked
and overpowered the guard, and wilts forcing their
way into the outside enclosure of the grounds.
did not perceive that the corporal was under the in
fluence of liquor, but subsequently discovered that
be wee. The officer in command of the military was
absent, and the non-commissioned officers and most
of the men wereintoxioated. He marched down the
crew of his vessel, and discovered that all was Con
fusion ; that soldiers and citizens were a common
mob. He then sent forward Lieut. J. M. Rosser,
with eight picked men, to reconnoitre more closely
and arrest ail the drunken men they could and
bring them back, and, if pressed, to tali back upon
the balance of the crew of the cutter, with% he
held In reserve, having heard that the rioters
had a design to surprise the *utter by a flank
movement and 'plunder or burn the stores. The
sailors went into the work as they knew how, and
brought back several prisoners, which were sent to
the cutter. By this means the riot was gradually
quelled and comparative order restored. Lieute
nant Rossey and two of the men of the cutter were
slightly injured. A number of persona were hurt
with brickbats and stones, but the only persons se-
Bondy injured are those whose names have already
been Mined. No one, so far as known, was
mortally Irijared, and Wes are entertained of the
recovery of Lieutenant Nelson. •
A conelderable degree of alarm and excitement
still pervades Tompkinsville, and few other subjects
than the riot are discussed. There is little to ap
prehend hi the form of danger, however, for all par
ties are disposed to remain quiet; but the forces on
the spot and in the vicinity are ample to preserve
absolute order.
The officers of the 69th Regiment held an investi
gation into the causes and progress of the riot yes
terday at Fort Richmond.

Candidate.
Gen. J. D. Cox has been nominated as the candi

Gen. Cox is still young, having been horn in 1828.
He is a native of Montreal Canada, bat has lived
nearly all his life in Ohio. He graduated at the
Oberlin (Ohio) College, and married the daughter

the rebellion broke out in 1861 he was sent as one of
the State militia commanders to Western Virginia,
where he served under McClellan, To his success

wha valley of rebels he was indebted for his nomi
nation and confirmation as brigadier general of

In 1862 General Cox was transferred to Eastern
Virginia, and commanded the 4th Division of the
9th Army Corps, then under General Reno. He

Clellan recommended him for promotion, and he

Virginia, and placed in command Of that atria.
On April 16,1863, he assumed Command of the Dis
trict of. Ohio—a part of General Bartillide'S depart

formed a junction with Sherman after fighting the
battle of Kinston, N. 0. Ho is at present command

At the request of the British minister, Kr. Kenner
dy has prepared a report for the Lords of the ()ow
ralitee of Privy Council for Trade of her Majesty's
Government, on the manner of obtaining the stuns '
tics of agriculture in the United States. It is hoped
that the information imparted may Influence the
British Government to inaugurate some system
whereby the agricultural productions of, that coun-
try may be ascertained. The two oountrles are now
more nearly balanced in the number of their in
habitants respectively than any others, or than they
have ever been heretofore, or will be hereafter, and
it would beg matter of great interest to be able to
compare the results of labor, not only in &uncoil.

It has been a feeling of the agrictiituriats of Eng
land that the Government has no right to call upon
them for information respecting their farming opera.

it is impossible for the present state of igno

FINANCIAL AND CVNINERCIAL,
The stook market is as oalm as the surface of a
summer lake, and 11 80Mething Is not thrown in to
cause a ripple or two, it will soon become inset
ferably stagnant. The universal reason assigned
for this condition of affairs is that the hot weather
utterly incapacitates everybody for any of the men
tal or physical energies which stook speculation re
quires. There is a general agreement all round that
active operations shall not be resumed until after
the vacation, and it shows the kindly spirit pre.
dominating On Third Street, that, to *any oat the
agreement in geed faith, there ore quite as many
persons who are evidently not anxious to make
money as there are of those who would cheerfully
make plenty. It is well for the dDerittors thew
selves, and the community, too, that the tribe of
restless adventurers who hang about the stack
boards should give themselves a respite from their
exhausting labors. We expert to see them in a
short while, returning from their slimmer trans, if
not wiser, at least better men. If they will here
after confine the swindling and cheating, which
some of them praotioe, to their own select circle,
