JUARErS FLIORT TO TEXAS
,jeartEz has fled to Texas. Our special
Mexican correspondent, writing from. EI
Paso del Norte, in the province or State of
Chihuahua, under date of September Bth,
Informs US of the fulfilment of the predic
tion (in his letter of August 15th) that
BVITITO 111A.REZ would speedily seek safety
by a flight into the United States. Driven
into Chihuahua by the Franco-Mexican
troops, Juarthz, with his friends and fol
lowers, gradually retreated to the north,
stud finally were at El Paso, a thriving,
well-known town on thq'ight bank of the
Rio Grande, and as exactly opposite to the
Village of Franklin, in El Paso county,
Texas, as Philadelphia is to Camden. As the
distance from Franklin to Washington is
about 1,800 miles, but only 000 miles to
San Francisco, it is probable that JUAREZ
will journey to California, across the
Isthinus,of Panama, and from Aspinwall,
•on the. Atlantic side, to New York, where
Ids fatally have been located for some time,
with (it is said) ample means for their sup
port. The statement we publish to-day is
explicit enough. It declares that BENITO
JRAREZ, with his friends and other exiles,
Tod found styity in Texas, on the northern
or United States side of the Rio Grande,
and that, after their exit, business had
be,gun to revive in Chihuahua.
To this statement we are disposed to give
lull credence. It comes from a known cor
respondent, for many years a thriving in
babitant of El Paso (the chief thorough
fare between our New Mexico and the State
of Chihuahua), who signs his name to what
he writes, and has fiwored us with nurue
lOUS letters from Mexico during the last
four years. After we published his last let
ter, stating that RAREZ intended to retire
From a hopeless contest, and might next be
heard of in the United States, some of the
New York papers—the Herald, which tells
of NArormox's loitering on the banks of
the Lake of Como, when he really was
nil the time at Biarritz, on the borders of
Spain, and the World, so eery accurate in its
Italian news—spoke contemptuously of the
" so-called correspondent of Tam PRESS.."

OFFICIAL REPORTS TO THAT EFFECT.
A NATIONAL CONVENTION OF COTTON
GROWERS PROPOSED
[Special Despatches to The - Press.]
WILMINGTON, October 8,1865.
The National Convention of Cotton•
Growers.
A. PENFIELD, Esq„ of this city, has addressed
to General Ilowaan, Commissioner Of Freed
men,s Affairs,a long communication inwriting
in respect to the propriety of holding at New
York or Washington a national convention of
cotton groweri. Ile represents that the hold
ing of a National Cotton-growing Convention
would be of eminent service as a financial
measure. In the present condition of the
Country we have, reason to apprehend hard
times in getting from inflated war prices to
specie payments. Such has been our past ex
perience as to suspension and resumption.
the circulation of habit fleeth.e itt 1.960, & pros•
perous year: was 207,102,477, paper circulation,
now a little over 950,000,000. Ent a reduction
of one-third (%) of present circulation cannot
be safely effected with moderate rapidity
without much distress. A larger volume of
paper currency may be sustained now than
in 1000 with good co, on crops. It is idle to
talk of specie payments being resumed, and
at the same time have an easy money market
till we can largely increase exports, reversing
the outflow current of gold, by which the state
of foreign exchanges would change front. If
the country can next year grow a crop of cot_
ton of 500,000 bales, the same quantity as that
of the year before the war,we can reach specie
payments by the spring of the following year.
Then why not a convention to devise means
to gain such a consummation—a Concert of ac
tion that cannot fail of the happiest results to
the nation, as.well as of profit to cotton-grow
ers, and good wages to laborers. Such a re
sult can only be attained through cotton ex
ports. We subjoin Gen. liowAnvs reply:
WAR DEPARTMENT,
BrREAU OF RRFUGESS i FREEDMEN, &0.,'
WASHINGTON, Oct. 6, 1865.
DuAn SIR! Your able letter is at hand. I
v <mr troposition of a National Cotton,.
growing Convention. The deliberations or
such a conv,ention, if well attemied, would aid
in the solution of many practical problems.
To-day a planter from Mississippi, said he
wanted two hundred and fifty freedmen from
'Virginia, if he could get them; and in his viol
nity, along the Mississippi river, there were a
good man planters equally anxious for labor.
interchangeAtl of settlement would serve to
bring light upon the lallorquestion and cheek
false notions that so often prevail,' that it is
possible and politic to dispense with freedmen.
Surely, the paramount object that you name
with regard to national finance will be jlromo
ted. I would suggest that you consult With
several prominent men from the South, North
and West, and secure., if possible, assent to
your proposition, having the convention meet
in Washington or New York on some day in
NOYCUlher next. Respectfully,
0. O. 2.10w...n0, Major General.
Arrival of the First District Colored
Troops.
The colored population of the city have been
on the qui vice during the past week in the ex
pectation of welcoming home the First Dis
trict colored troops, veterans, the heroes of
eleven battles. This morning (Sunday) the re_
giment arrived from North Carolina, and was
met at Sixth•street wharf' by a large and en
thusiastic crowd of colored persons. The re
giment carried banners on which were the
names of "eleven" engagements they had par
ticipated in. They enlisted in MI, and left the
city with one thousand men, and returned
with but two hundred And eighty of the ori
ginal number.
(Metal Reports of the Cholera
The United States Consul at Barcelona,
under date of September Pith, BM, informs
the Department of State that the port of
Barcelona has been officially declared infested,
as the cases of cholera are daily increasing.
The royal decree to this effect is dated the sth
inst., and was published at Barcelona by the
Governor General. The number of deaths
from this dread disease from the SW to the
15th of September, reached five hundred and
ninety. The number of actual cases of sick
ness is not given. The consul represents that
business of all hinds is entirely Suspended,
stores and offices are closed, and one half of
the population of the city have left. ➢fany
families are happy to obtain a tent or hut in
the country. The panic extends to the whole
community. All operations at the Exchange
have ceased. The poor and those thrown out
of employment in consequence of the ravages
of this contagion, are abundantly provided for
by the charitable citizens of Barcelona.
Letter from General Hitchcock.
The Chronicle of today contains an elabo
rate and comprehensive letter from Major
General HrreEcoes, in reply to accusations
made against the secretary of War by Tomas
Bnowir, of the New York Tribune. With re
gard to the point that the Secretary of War
refused to make exchanges man for man,
officer for officer, according to grade, lie made
the following statement :
ff In no instance, within his knowledge, did
Mr. Stanton refuse to acquiesce in any prop!).
sition looking to that result ; there is not in
my office, nor have I ever seen, such a propo
sition from a rebel commissioner or the rebel
authorities. Nor have I any reason to be
lieve that any such proposition was ever
made by Judge Ould or any of his superiors,
except in a letter from Judge Ould addressed
to Major Mulford, which fell into the bands of
General Butler. This is not only true, em
phatically, as a_protection against the accusa
tions leveled at Mr. Stanton, but precisely
trary is truth.
" Sir. Stanton bas.not only been willing but
anxious to make exchanges referred to; as I
have abundant means ofArshowing, by indis
putable documents, the aim and purpose of
Judge Ould Avila to draw from us all of the
rebel prisoners held in exchange for white
troops of the United States, held as prisoners
in the South, persistently refusing to ox--
changecoloredtoops down to a very late date ,-
when, to carry a special purpose, tie receded
so far as to agree to exchange free colored
men, leaving the general principle where it
was, on his side, against the just claims of a
large body of colored prisoners held in the
South."

—Why General Lee and Other proutt.
tient Metals are not Subpoenaed.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 7.—The newspapers have
made a mistake inthe name of the defendant's
witness who, on Wednesday and Thursday, tes
tified to the thriving business affairs, .te., at
Andersonville. The name is George W. Fech
nor, but at the prison he assumed the name of
Charles W. Ross.
This morning Captain Selph was recalled,
and tes.tified that some of the boxes with Sa
nitary goods for soldiers:were broken open on
the way to their destination. The command
of the witness, with the rebel army at "%ricks.•
lavrg, were vaccinated for the emall.pox, but
those who hod the small-poxrecoveredquicker
than those who bad been vaccinated. Vacine
matter was at that time very scarce in the
South.
Dlr, Baker Made 3 *t3tement to the court,
and then asked that an adjournment take
place till Thursday. The court consented to
this.
Ridge Advocate Chipman said that some et
the witnesses asked for by the defenee had
been subpamaccl inadvertently, while subpce
naes for others which hail been issued were,
after further consideration, revoked. The re
marks applied to a certain class of witnesses
which the court understood erahraCed men
high and prominent in the rebel service—
Generals Lee, and Johnston, Howell Cobb
Mallory, Dr. Moore, Commissioner Ouid, and
otb ers.
subpcennes were revoked on thetollow
ing grounds, to 'wit
.2 - Pird. All principals in the first degree, that
is those who directly perpetrate the act, are
incompetent.
Second. Principals in the second degree, ac.
tually or constructively present, are incompe
tent.
- .
Third. Accessories before or after the fact,
whose conviction the evidence evolved will
Warrant, Or against whom sufficient circum
stances point to their guilt, are incompetent.
Fourth. All conspirators are incompetent,
and this is true in all these cases, whether the
parties be named or not in the indictment,i so
that the proof is sufficient to connect them as
above stated, withthe offences alleged. Again,
I assume that there is not one of the Govern
ment rebels whom the counsel ask to subpoena
as witnesses, who will not be compelled to an
swer on his voir dire that he has committed
treason against the United States. His confes
sion in open court, according to the constitu
tion of our country, is equivalent to t e testi
mony of two witnesses. He stands, taerefore,
convieted of the highest crime known to our
laws, and all that is wanting to render him in
famous is a formal verdict. I say, therefore,
he is incompetent. Again, this rebellion has
been one gigantic act of treason—one common
conspiracy to overthrow our Government. Not
a single rebel engaged in it, according to the
strict rules of law, is a competent witness for
another on trial charged With treasonable
cirences, as he is an secessory before Or after
the fact, or a coconspirator, or an accomplice,
and therefore excluded. I say, then, until
they are purged by special pardons, by a ge
neral pardon, or by acquittal before a compe
tent court, no one of them ought to be permit
ted to testify for Ills associates.
Mr. Baker replied that he subpcenaed Howell
Cobb to show that he did not use the words
attributed to him in his speech, that Gen. Lee
Was subpoenaed, to show that he endeavored to
alleviate the wants of the prisoners, and that
Joseph E. Johnston could testify that his
army could not be supplied with food. These
and like witnesses could better than any one
else disprove some of the evidence of the
prosecution.
Dr. Joseph Jones, Professor of Chemistry in
the Medical College of Georgia, was placed on
the stand, and produced a report which he
made under the permission of the rebel au
thorities, concerning the diseases, etc., at An
dersonville, It appears that his Meet was to
illustrate facts relative to gangrene, malarial
fevers, and camp and other diseases. This re
port shows the frightful mortality, the num
ber of deaths during one period being as large
in the stockade as in the hospital. He de
scribes the men as miserable, hopeless, and ab.
ject in the extreme, very many of them mere
skeletons, encrusted with dirt, and covered
with vermin. Seine of them cursed their own
Government for refusing to consent to an ex
change of prisoners, It was, he said, impossi
ble to depict the scene..,
The court then adjourned until next Thurs
day morning.

A:ME:S ItUNCI., riesideut of Convention_
The message of the House of Bishops on the
subject which was presented yesterday, was
read.
Rev. Dr. Runcie, of Indiana, moved that this
house concur in the action Of th.P.KOU9O Of
Bishops.
On motion, the matter was referred to the
Committee on Consecration of Bishops.
The following memorial wag presented k and
()
having been read, was referred to the ma
mittee on the Prayer Book :
2b the House of the Clerical and Lay Deputies of
the Protestant Episcopal Church of the Mika
States:
The undersigned, a presbyter of the Church,
ventures to approach your Rouse, in common
with the Rouse of Bishops, to submit the me-
hiOrial, which his estimate of your office iti re
lation to the times does not permit him to
Withhold. The actual portion of our com
munion, with refeMee 40 the great question
indicated below, presents to the minds of the
undersigned a subject of grave and anxious
thought. Did he suppose that this was con
fined to himself, he would not feel warranted
in submitting it to your attention; but he be
lieves it to be participated in by many of his
brethren, who may not have seen the expedi
ency of declaring their views, or at least a ma
ture season for such a course.
In common with all clergymen of this Church
he, at his ordination, "solemnly engaged to
conform to the doctrines and worship of the
Protestant .Episeopal Church in the United
States." lie finds in the Book of Common
Prayer set forth as the rule of public worship
in his communion, no version of the Nicene
Creed which does not contain these words:
"And I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Lord
and giver of life, - who proceeded from the
Father and the Son"—and his ordination vows
restrain him from omitting any of these words
in public worship. But it is known to your
reverend House that these words "and the
Son , ' were not in the original creed of Nicea,
nor has their addition been authorized by any
keneral council of the Church. It is also
nown that the General Council of Ephesus
(whose decisions are recognized as binding in
the Anglican church), at its sixth session,
July 9.2 e, A.D. 431, St. Cyril presiding, decreed
(Canon VII) that "No one shall be permitted
to introduce, write, or compose any other
creed besides that which was defined by the
holy fathers assembled at Nicea, with the
Holy Ghost, under pain of deposition from
the clerical once if they are clergy, and of
excommunication if tileY Are iarnerc. ,,
To relieve - himself from incurring this sen
tence, your memorialist, in his place as a pres
byter of the church and diocese of Connecti
cut, asks your consent that he may be allowed
to omit from the creed the worth interpolated
in the ninth century by Nicholas I, Bleep Of
Rome, that if it should not seem fitting to you
to erase these words from the Book of Com
mon Prayer, the same liberty, at least, may be
allowed which a former convention has COM&
ed. to "any churches" with reference tothat ar
ticle of the Apostle's creed: "He descended
into hell."
The writer trusts that he did not render him
self liable of unwarranted intrusion. Ile finds
his warrant in the prayer offered up during
your session by Gospel ur congregations, " that
the comfortable of Christ may be truly
preached, truly received and truly followed in
all places to the breaking down of the king
dom of sin, Satan and death."
The writer then closes with the expression
of a hope that the subject might not be dis
missed without synodical action.
JOHN H. ANKETEL,
St. John's Church, Winsted, Conn.
Dr. Hare offered a resolution requiring a
committee of five to be %minted to consider
the canons relative to admission to the minis
try, with a view both of rendering their mean
ing more obvious, and of making access to the
ministry more difficult to unsuitable person*
that the report be printed and presented to
the neat convention ; that the emir) be pre•
seated to the committee one month before
the assembling of that convention.
In urging the 'passage of the resolution, Dr.
Dare said that he had time and again been
ca i lled upon by applicants for admission to the
ministry to know what was necessary for them
to do. lie referred them to the canons; but
they always replied, " Oh, the canons are so
complicated." Re med found it necessary to
acquaint himself many times with the canons,
so as to be able to give intelligible answers to
the questions so often propounded to him.
The reason why the canons stand in their
present form is by reason of the hasty legisla
tion which has been used in their passage and
adoption. They are not so made as to be con
sistent the one with the other, Legislation
has often been too;basty in this particular, and
it has resulted in a state of things not desira
ble. Persons arenow received into the mini!.
try who are not allcompetent for it.
Mr. Ezekiel F. Chambers, of Maryland, in
quired whether the intention of the last
speaker was to. instruot the committee to
make their report conform to the propositions
made in his remarks.
Dr. Hare replied that be desired the commit
tee to examine the canons, and report only
upon the subject-matter of hit resolution.
Mov. Dr. Mead, of Connecticut, referred to
a resolution passed in 1858, providing for a di
gest of the canons, and the attention of the
convention of 1869 was given to that subject.
There was no rash, hot haste ; but the speaker
thought there were some heads so muddy that
nothing could be made clear to them. He Bug
gestea the appointment of a special commit
-tee to repoft some epeeifie amendments, and
that the whole subject of the digest should
not be taken up.
Bev. M. A. DEM% Howe, of Pennsylvania, said;
I apprehend that Dr. Mead misunderstands
my colleague. He merely desired to intimate
that some canons are acted on with haste. lie
had no desire to attack the general digest. If
my friend from Connecticut thinks the canons
clear, he must possess an acuteness NG shaved
in by the majority of his brethren. lam sure
that Dr. Mead will agree with me that the
Committee ott Canons have too much work al
ready to d'oi and that a special committee will
best attend to it.
Dr. Mead rose to explain .that he did. not re
fer to the Clear head of Dr. Mare as a "muddy
head ,n but to many of those who may come to
him for enlightenment, on this subject.
Pending the consideration of this subject
the following message was received. from the
House of Pas - hops:
Resolved, That this House do ask.of the House of
Clerical and Lay ih-puties to concur in the follow

Of England and Ireland, have desired the Primates
of all England to express their hearty admiration of
the courage, firmness and devoted love of the truth
of the Gospel as this Church has received the mane,
which mute been manifested by the Right Rev - . Ho

of South Africa, and the Bishops who assembled
with him in dealing with the sad defection front

Roamed, That the said bishops, clergy and laity

efficient testimony, in face of so great diniculties,
to declare onr hearty concurrence in the expression
of admiration, thanks and trust made - by the Con

Deputies to •communicate to his Grace, the Arch

resumed.
Rev. Dr. Cummins, of Illinois, said he be
lieved the tithe had come when the Church
n-as called on to guard the entrance to her
ministry with much more , strictness than She
had previously done. The present General
Convention might greatly profit by devoting
itself to a consideration of 'this question of
securing proper candidates for the ministry of
the Church.
Ite - v. D. R. GOodwin, D. D., of Pennsylvania,.
and Rev. Dr. Mead, of Connecticut, addressed
the House in explanation of their views-on
the matter in question, the latter offering as
an amendment, to substitute for the original,
the following
Resolved, That a joint committee t to consist or
two from each House, be appointed to consider,
prli I and report what alterations should be made in
theltanons in 'order to snake admission into the
priesthood more Micah to Improper candidates,
and to make the Canons more clear and intelllgthle,
Rev. Alex, Burgess, of Maine, having the
floor, and the hour of' 12 o'clock arriving, the
order of the day was called by 11ev. Mr. Davis.
At this point, a message was received from the
AMMO of Bishops, informing the Ilotiee it that
the Rouse is satisfied that the Rev. Richard
Hooker Wilmer, D. D., has been validly conse
crated-to the office of a Bilphop, having been
elected to the exercise of that office in the va
cant diocese of Alabainal-and that, without
examination of the circumstances occasioning
certain canonical irregularities in the election
and conseoration,and expressly declaring that
its present action shall never ho construed or
accepted as a precedent, this Rouse hereby ac.
cents the. Right Rev. Dr. Wilmer as Bishop of
Alabama, and consents to his episcopate as
such; provided that the House of Clerical and
Lay Deputies is willing to signify its concur

that thereafter the Bishop of Alabama shall
transmit in writing , to the presiding Bishop,
to be by hint committed to the custody of the
Register of this House, the promise of 13011.
formityeomprised in the office for the conse
cration of a Bishop in the Ordinal: ,
Accompanying the message was the follow
ing. resolution
Rtsohoft, That we do hereby express to the Bishops
Of Albany our fraternal regrets at the lesual of lilt
late pastoral letter, and assured confidence that no
further occasion for such regrets will occur.
Mr. Ezekiel F. Chambers, of Maryland,
moved to lay on the table all 'business at pre
sent before the House, in order to proceed to
the conderation of the message just received
from the House of Bishops.
Rev. Francis Vinton,D. D., of New York,
that the COl/0440 1 0n of that subpot
would probahly inyolye hours of debate and
he therefore hoped the matter would lie' laid
on the table for the present.
Mr. Chambers then withdrew his motion.
The resolution of Rev. Dr. Hare, of Pennsyl
vania, being again before the House, some fur.
tiler debate ensued, when it was postponed,
and made the order of the day for to-day at
twelve coelock M. _ .
Rey. Geo. M. Randall, D. li t of Mamie
setts, moved to refer to a special committee,
appointed in 1562, the matter of the Constitu
tum of the General Theelogical Seminary, and
that they confer with the trustees of the sem
inary. Carried.
The House then resealed the consideration
of the subject of allowing the clergy to enter
the military and naval service of the United
States, which was under consideration at the
adjournment on the day previous. '
Mr. S. C. Judd, of Illinois, urged the passage
of the resolution in some forcible remarks.
By reference to the United States law relative
to the bearing of arms by persons having con
scientious scruples against the seine, he had
found it to he' stronger than he at first sup
posed it to-.l*, He then read the act of Con.
grosa on the stfbjeet.
Rev. Dr. Stubbs, of New Jersey, expressed .
his surprise that any objection should be
made to the Callon on account of principle,'
Had it passedyears ago, how much annoyance
to the ministry would have been avoided, in-"
asmuch as then they would not have been
subjected to the contingency of either leav
ing their charges or asking another to shed
his blood as a substitute. The ministry did
not wish to be placed in such a position. This
canon had not been passed before because it
was not thought that any person consecrated
to the service of God could consistently give
up a work of peace and reconciliation for one
of bloodshed and war. However superstitious
and erroneous the views of men on other sub
jects, on this Ti? thing they had agreed that the
duty of the ministrywas topreaeh peace, good
will and love, and it was the saddest comment
upon Christianity that could be made that
ministers had proclaimed war instead of peace,
and even with the hands consecrated to the
service of Christ,taken the sword against their
fellow-men. in the providence of God, the
speaker hoped that there would not again
arise any necessity for our citizens to bear
arms, but who could tell what a single year
would bring' orth. The signs of the times were
ominous, and the present was the most accep
table time for the passage of the proposed
canon, as thereby' all future contingencies
would be meet fully met. In the Roman Cathee
lie Church, the reason why the priesthood had
been exempt from bearing arms was because
of the existence of a canon of _that Church
forbidding them to take up arms. The errors
of the Roman Catholic Church were, of course,
to be avoided; but her example in that which
was holy and right should be followed. The
Rev. speaker continued : The early canons
of the Church command that if any bishop,
priest, or deacon take up arms let him be
anathematized, and let that be our testimony
now. At the time of ordination. every priest
is reminded that it is his duty to preach peate
on earth, promote quietness and love, and he
swears to that, and, therefore, he cannot bear
arms without the,guilt of sacrilege and per
jury ibut that law ia not so plain that all may
i
read it, and it should be made so. In the early
flays the clergy refused to bear arms and were
threatened with punishment and death, but
they bore an trials for the truth. Let us put
this law on our canons and we shall be pre
pared to bear our testimony of the sacroduese
of the priesthood. The proposed law, if it
does not protect us, enables us to bear our
record for the truth. The cry has come up
from a Christian assembly that men who re
fuse to take up arms are wanting In patriotism,
What. crimes been committed under that
name! Who are the truest patriots—those
who shed a brother's blood, or those who
strive to save both the body and soul °f olds
fellow-man? Who is the truest lover of his
country.? Who best forwards his country's
interest? Let it not be said that those men
were not patriots who are ready to fulfil their
duty in this respect.
Rev. Dr. Kerfoot proposed that the Church
should say to her ministers and candidates
for holy orders, "You are not to take .up
arms that the Church should tell-the latter,
that so soon as they had given in their -names
to the Bishop add been consecrated they had
made a vow, and that while that vow lasted
they were consecrated to Jesus Christ. In
doing this, the convention would. be merely
forbidding that which it believed to be utterly
inconsistent with the holy life which a clergy
man should lead.
Rev. M. A. De W. Howe, of Pennsylvania,
moved to lay the whole subject on the. table.
Not agreed to.
The secretary, Rev. Dr. Randall, then stated
the cjileAtiOn to be upon an amendment offered
to an amendment to the report of the Com
mittee on Canons, and suggested that the fol
lowing day being Sunday, and it being neces
sary to renovate the church for services on
that day, it might be proper for the conven
tion to adjourn.
Without disposing of the subject under dis
cussion the body then adjourned until this
morning at ten o'clock.
Previous to adjournment the chair an
nounced the following Committee on Resolu
