Friday Morning, July 21, 1865. The New York World estimates the total exceptions to the President's amnesty proclamation at from 200,000 to 2f>0,000 .men, divided as follows: Pci-sons above the rank of colonel, 400; raiders from Canada, 2,000; privateersmen, 3,500;. vo? lunteer rebels worth above $S^00O, o0, 000; foreign agents of rebel government, 200; rebel : aval officers, 160; disloyal Jurists, 30; seceding Congressmen. 149; old army officers, 130; persons who mal treated prisoners, 300; governors of rebel States, 19; Northern men in rebel employ, 400; soldiers in rebel army from border States not seceded, ?o.000; in Northern prisons at the current time, 23,000; those who have taken the oath and broken it, 30,000. 'Pendennis,' the Kew York Correspondent of thc Charleston Courier, writes as follows, under dale of July ll; Three bold articles have appeared in the Path/ News denouncing the military tri? bunal as a set of murdere*?, and proposytg to prosecute and (if convicted) to bang them for deliberate murder. .The Sunda;/ Mercury, in an article beaded "Official Mulder,'' speaks almost as plainly. The Herald defends the commission, justifies th? trial, conviction aud execution, and ?itches into the News in tine style aa the leader of ''the rebel pi ess of New York." The Kew? of today's issue slaps at the Herald. ? A very distinguished foreigner lins ar? rived in this cityc There is no touch of shoddy aristocracy about him; lie is really I one of the "big "tish;" he calls on uo one, I but receives visits from all classes of ! society. ?Strange to say, you are com- j pelted to pay to see bim. The big fish is ii "'whale from the coast of Labrador, and I his headquarters are at Barnum's." There is a beggar here, a cripple, who ] has lost oue leg entire and Ibo uso of the j "other. I see him every day on bis way to ; and from the Centre] Park. Ile is said to j be worth oSO.-OOO-a pretty rich beggnr. Never before did crime stalk abroad so boldly and fearlessly in this city as ii. Joes i nt present. Murders; robberies, assaults uro daily committed. The Herald says: "The. very sidewalk? in open dny arc pit? falls of death to those who may have abont them a sum of money worth 6lea? j iug,?a valuable watch or a diamond i breastpiu. For three good rea.-o-.s. "Pen- j dcDiiis" ij^rs not, but boldly perambulates . the ride walka. I liave had a conversation with an able j financi? -, who suggests the following plan , for relieving the South: "Let the Legisla- ' lure (say of South Carolina) abolish the j usury law, or at least insomuch as to allow I .capitalists to loan money to the planters ' ?on mortgages, charging something more than the established rate of interest. This will be an inducement to JSorthern e*piJ j talista to invest their money South, The | infce.est cnn be paid in cash, or an arrange- j meet can be made to receive payment in | the Cotton or rice that, is raised.:> So j suggeeteth the "finaucisr," but there is a i . little drawback, which is this, there is no Legislaturein existence, and so relief must come from another quarter. AB President Johnson still refuses to revoke the twenty thousand'dollar excep? tion, I propose that all those who ar? troubled in mind on account of th ??ir I having anything over that amount should j relieve their apprehensions by sending the surplus to "Pendennis," who will receive it to oblige them. It is supposed that the Atlantic cable will bc ready and in working order in | about twenty days. When the circle ! around the earth is completed, nations l in one part of the earth will be -able to j Iiear in one day of events that took pince I the-day nfter in another quarter. To ex- '? plain; At 1 o'clock a. m.. August 1, I send a messitge from Liverpool to a friend in ; New York, informing bim of a certain [ event which bas just happened, lie re- j ceives the message between the hours of j 9 and 10 p.- m. on July 31. What is time? I Som*'iJea may be formed of Mr. Bar? num's profits from the Museum establish? ment, when it is stated that during the eleven months e.'ling on May 31. the gross receipts taken at tho door, amounted to $280,351! Divided into quarte?, this will give about twelve hundred and fifty thou? sand visitors for'eleven months! The last novoliv in fashionable .bonnets is tims deserioed" by a Paridan writer: "Madame de Z--'s bonnet consisted of two ounces of gold beaten into a band, and four square inches of black lace, the whole to conclude with a gold button, which fastened one end of the lace over the other." -?B? - The arrest of Gen. Lee, the Petersburg (Va.) Kaes states, was ordered by-Secre? tary Stanton. Gen. Ord, in command at Richmond, offered his resignation rathei than execute the order. (Jen. Grant then interfered, and the order of the arrest was recalled. Speaking of the confession of Mrs. Sur ratt. Kev.

We regret to learn that the 165th Regi? ment New York Volunteers, (Duryea's Zouaves,) since the part taken by them in the late disturbances, and their subsequent removal to Morris' Island, have exhibited a very unbecoming, if not mutinous, spirit of insubordination. The unsoldierly and - inexcusable con? duct on the part of veterans, more parti? cularly, called forth a peremptory order from Gen. Gillmore, who, a veteran soldier himself, exacts the strictest discipline of bis command, taking aw33' the colors of the Zouaves In accordance with this order, Generals Hatch and Bennett, accompanied by their respectiva staffs, proceeded last week to Morris' Island for the purpose indicated. The order of Gen. Gillmore was read to the Colonel in .command of the Zouaves, and the colors demanded. The Colonel refused to obey the order to deliver up bis colors. He was thereupon piaced inclose arrest, the order made known to the secoyd -officer in command, and a similar demand made upon him for thc colors. This officer at first also cave a flat re? fusal. To this Gem Hutch- explained to bim the consequences of his refusal, and defined the difference between disobedi dice of orders, of which his superior officer, the Colonel, liad boen guilty, and mutiny, with which he, as the subordinate, would be charged. The officer, after this explanation, pro? mised to deliver the cobos. The guard was formed, and marched to tho boat, but upon reaching it wore found to be in pos? session of the staffs and rubber, but no colors. The ruse did not succeed. On its dim-uvery, Gen. Bennett wa? ordered by Gen. Hatch to take a detachment of lb? .17th l^nnsvlvania Retriment and disarm ; the wb'le Zouave Regiment. The. regi? ment was marched info Fort Wagn?r, toe guns having been previously Ioaded*.with grape, and canister, and trained on thu parada ground. The parapet was manned \>y the -17th Pennsylvania Regiment, and a detachment of the 3d Rhode Island Artil lery. Their orders were ir. the case of an j" resistance to fire on the mutinous.troops. The Zouaves, seeing all farther opposi? tion useU-ss, quietly stacked their arms and marched out of the fort, The officers and men were marched, under guard, on bo.ard a steamer, winch conveyed them to Fort Sumter, there to, expiate, under a broil- I ing sun, the crime of reftistnnce to consti tuted authority.-Charleston. Courier, lS?/?. A letter says that true loyalty is scarce in Galveston, even now, while soldiers patrol the streets and powerful fleets are 1 anchored off the city. The narrow- j minded and impoverished people cling to , the idea of State independence. They want to fly the lone star flag once more, and to subdivide the country into four States and become a recognized power in j the world. - Guo. S. BRYAN, ES?-Among those who have returned, we were glad to greet yes? terday George S.

Great Fire in New York. RICHMOND, Jul}- l l-10 p. ru.-Washing? ton papers of to-day bring accounts of a most disastrous conflagration, which oc? curred in New York, yesterday forenoon, about 10 o'clock: The fire commenced in Barnum's Mu? seum building, corner of Broadway and Park Row, and diagonal Iv opposite t he Astor House. It is supposed to have been caused by the explosion of some pyrotech? nics, which had been prepared for use in some dramatic performances in the thea? trical department of the building. The flames spread with great rapidity to every portion of the bouse, producing terror and consternation among the inmates, and completely paralyzing all efforts to cneck the raging element. The Museum building was very tall some four stories in height.-and serious apprehensions were entertained from the first, that all the valuable buildings iu the entire block would be destroyed. The Herald newspaper buildings, on the North-west corner of Fulton and Nassau streets, of great, height, and very valuable, were completely destroyed, along with the grenfer portion of its types, piesses, ?.fcc. The buildings on Ann street wei? occu? pied chiefly ns print ?neofTTces in the upper ? portions, and many publishers nnd printers I were thrown out, of employment-. The total los- is estimated at from $1,750,000 to $2,00n,u0c! The Herald buildings were erected some fiftien orsixteen years ago, at considerable ! expense. They were complete in all respects for the prosecution of the gigantic business for which they were originally designed. Barnum's losses are very heavy and well ? nigh irreparable. Ile had recently encoun? tered great* expense in preparing for the I gorgeous spectacular pantomimes of 'The | Green Monster, or the White Knight and j Giant Warrior." All the hew and splendid scenery, costumes, etc., were destroyed. The two living white whales, captured and brought to New York from the coast of Labrador, nnd exhibited iri ri mammoth class tank, were burnt. A living alligator twenty feet long, his vast collection of fish, birds, dowers, etc., were also burnt. His mar y wax figures, living otters, seals, menagerie of living animals, monster python and a thousand other curiosities were all swallowed up by the devouring element. The fat woman, (a mountain td' flesh.} was saved, with great difficulty; a few articles of minor importance were saved. Che account, represents that the fire was occasioned by som ! experiments in chemicals, which were ben;.: made by Prof. Cosperess, the great, philosopher and magician, who was announced for a grand exhibition at ll o'clock. 2Wm XJ. ^liiiliSP-Sy Beceiving and Forwarding Agent, ORANGEBURG, S.
