' DBW YORK LETTER. [FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] NEW YORK, August 17.-In my last letter I remark? ed, in referring to the Philadelphia Convention, that whilst I hoped that the most salutary results would accrue, I still entertained fears to the con? trary. My hopes are now in the ascendency, and my fears are dispelled. I judge, by the effect pro? duced here, what will be the general effect through? out the country, and that tells me that all will be well; that good-fellowship is to be re-established; that the Union is rosily to be restored in sub? stance, not in shadow; and that the Radicals who have always been radically wrong, will soon be radically used up and emphatically euchred. When the evening papers came out hero on the afternoon of the first day of the Convention, it was "better th?n a play" to note the expressions of countenance and the remarks of tho hoi polloi, ?as each one, in glancing over tho proceedings, perused the paragraph giving an account how the lion and the lainb.sat down-or rather walked in together; how Massachusetts and South Carolina, or South Carolina and Massachusetts, came arm and arm into the wigwam-figuratively speaking, smoking the pipe of peace. Every man wore a smiling countenance, and such commentaries as "bully for them both" "good egg"-"kiss and be friends"-"the war is over"-"we've had enough fighting"-furnished abundant evidence of the faot that the good seeds which have been so skillfully sown have already taken deep root in the hearts of Northern as well as Southern men, and that a great tree will Boon spring up whose branches 'sbaTT'Bpro?'ir out and overshadow all of the past that it were well should be forgotten. As this Philadelphia Convention has been a brilliant suooess, so will the other, whioh is to bo held on the 8d proximo, prove to be a miserable failure. I refer to the JACK HAMILTON Southern, Badioal, and Ethiopian suffrage concern. A mass meeting of the supporters of this movement was held here at the Cooper Institute on Wednesday night, and was a horrible flash in the pan. HORACE GREELEY made a apeeoh in whioh he called the particular attention of bis hearers to the faot that they ought to sympathize with their brethren who had been butchered in New Orlea ns. The Rev. T. W CON WAT literally praised the New Orleans negroes up to the skies, by remarking that their praises should be written in the sky in golden letters. Dr. NEWMAN, a white man, held forth in the same strain, and was followed by Mr. Garnet, a black man. Of course a hat waa handed round, and some few of the audience gave a faint expression to the sympathy in a greenback point of view. Dr. RANDOLPH (not JOHN RANDOLPH) then indulged in some complimentary remarks about President JOHNSON, whom he accused of he longing to the canine specios; and then some one, fearing that tho hat would go round once moro, moved an adjournment. In the very appropriate and exproBsive though inelegant language of the Herald, the whole affair was a "decidod lizzie." BERNARD FRIERY, the murderer of HARKY LAZA? RUS, the prize-fighter, will bo executed to-dav, unless ho be reprieved by the Governor. Sport? ing men have actually been heartless enough to make wagers for and against the reprieve. Mrs. ELEANOR T. BISHOP, the plaintiff in tho BISHOP divorce case, has brought sn action against her husband and CLARA B. WALLACE, charging them with appropriating to their own use some jewelry of her's worth $2000. The wile swore that the husband had stolen tho jewelry, while he swore that the entire ohargo was a fabri? cation. The Judge deoided in favor ol' tho de? fendant, but this does not prove his innocence. If a man can rob a wife of her most precious jow els (next to her virtue), his love and her happi n?ss, why should he hesitato about Btoaling bor trinkets also ? The great LORD bond robbery caso has again been brought up on the tapis. It will bo remem? bered that on the 7th of last April Mr. LORD was robbed of an immonse amount of bonds ; that a man named ENNIS was arrested ; that $200,000 was reoovered, and that the thief afterward made his osoape. Yesterday ten other parties were arrested-in fact the ten to whom waa assigned the most important part of the programme (and who performed their partB well)-tho abstracting the money from the safe. They havo beoo locked up in durance vile, in default of $50,000 bail. The city cars aud stages, from their uncomfort? ably overcrowded condition, have grown to be a downright nuisance, wherefore it ha? been sug? gested that it would be expedient, as well as profitable, to institute a system of cab arrange? ments similar to that which Bucfieods so well in London and Paris. Tho suggestion will no <]oubt soon be adopted. It is to be hoped that it may be. A murder was committed at 12 o'clock on Wed? nesday night, on the Eighth Avenue, from a provocation so slight thxt it makes us simd 1er at the cold-blooded depravity of hunuu kind. A man named SKEHAN W.IS walking with a worn in one ANNIE EAGAN-when they passed ona THOMAS WRIGHT, who indulged in Borne facetious remark*, nnKn.hmit.lVfi.qH TfAGAV. but about her b liilieL ill quiring "if it was for sale," &c.. On this trivial provocation* did SKEHAN' rush upon WEIGHT and stab him to the heart. WEIGHT is dead, and it is most earnestly to be hoped that his murderer may not escape the gallows. HEGEMAN & Co.'a stock of drugs was destroyed by fire yesterday, in their store, No. 203 Broad? way. The fire originated in the cellar, and the steam engines had mastered it ere the flames had reaohed the second story. The loss is set down at $50,000. The telegram from Canada, announcing the fact that another Fenian invasion ?B contemplated, the expedition to be headed by Gen, DICK TAYLOR, creates no excitement here,-in fact, no one be? lieves it. The work of rebuilding the Aoademy of Music is at last well under weigh-of the fact I am most particularly reminded as I write, for, from my window I can look out upon the now wall risiDg visibly from hour to hour. The people who live here are coming home, the people who do not live here are pouring in-the city begins to look lively, and New York will soon be herself again. MOULTRIE. From the West Indies. [SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THE DAILY NEWS.] [Per "Columbia," via New York.] CARDENAS, CUB?, August 9.-Although we have had several arrivals of Pitch Pine Lumber, prices aro pretty well mainta.ued at from $40 to $41.

General Magruder and Mr. Davis. It will be remembered by those who have read Dr. Craven's book on the "Prison Life" of Mr. Davis, that the distinguished captive reflected with Borne severity upon those officers of the Southern army who left the country after the olose of the recent war. Much was and is to be said in defence of the course adopted by these gentlemen, but it is not our present purpose to discuss that question. We simply desire to oall attention to the subjoined letter from General Magruder, which we copy from a recent number of the Mexi? can Times. It is a model of soldierly generosity and high-toned gentlomanly courtesy : MEXICO, July 22, 1866. I have read, with deep interest, in a New York paper, copious extracts from the "Prison Life'' of Mr. Jefferson Davis, as presented to the world by Dr. Cravon, who, as an enemy during the late American war, was prejudiced against the head and leader of the armed Confederates, but daring a long professional attondauce by the sick bed of the illustrious prieoner became his friend and ad? mirer. The style of Dr. Cravon is admirably clear, unaffected and free from pedantry, and the scenes he describes, as an eye witness, are so deeply interesting that they cannot fail to awaken, throughout the world, the sympathy of all who appreciate true nobility and undeserved suffering. I have also been presonted by a friend with a copy of Dr. Crayon's book, and rogret to find, ou reading it, that Mr. Davis indulges iu un? friendly animadversions on those who, at the ter? mination of the war, thought proper to leave the country. I believe that, tlosely confined as he was, Mr. Davis romained in entire ignorance of tho circum? stances which made this course on our part not only correct, but patriotic. But if there are any who entertain a different opinion, I think I but respect the feelings of our compatriots abroad, when I request a suspension of the opinion, until a release of ( ur ex President from confinement and his freedom from persecution, shall have ena? bled us with propriety to defend ourselves; and should this be not conceded, I for one would pre for to rose under undeserved censure, rather tuan add the weight of a feather, to . the oares which already so cruelly oppress our former Chief. J. BANKHEAD MAGRUD?R, Lite Major-General C. 8. Army. [Peteisburg Index. -. - THE Galveston Civilian denies that profit has been made in Tesas by introducing the cashmore goat, remarking as follows : Now, wo have seen something of tlioao animals in Texas; and, although they are very pretty to look at, and maj be good to eat, wo do uot know a man who has made a single dollar from ? the fleece, though some may have done so. We shall be nappy to publish tho result of any profit- : able shearing of tiio animals in Texas.. Rut, says ! au article before is, in the year 1858 a single com? pany in Tennessso sold sixty thousand dollars' . worth of their grade animals" alone in the States J of Tennossee and Kentucky. That way lies the j profit, we opine. It ia thoso who Bell goatB, not j those who sell the wool, who mako the money. Tho Buffalo Express is informed that enough ; men are pledged in Western New York tn give the i new Fenian movement a firm footing at tho start, ? amt that a movement is now being made toward i funning several u? v circle*, to be composed solely of MuiHfi wlin bore arms during the late war. The Old New York Steamship Line. TheNew York Times of the 18th instant, in an article copied below, mentions a law snit, which is of large peouniary interest to some of ourfellow oitizens. These gentlemen were large stock? holders in the steamships Columbia, Nashville, James Adger, John P. King, and Marion, several of which were in the employ of the United States Government during tho war, under charter from Messrs. SPOFFORD, TILESTON & Go., the New York Agout8, and in whioh service the ships made large sums of money. The stockholders here claim a settlement whio1, will give them their just share of such o.irnings, and which in a few cases will no doubt amount to a fine fortune, if recov? ered. LITIGATIONS ARISING OUT OF THE REBELLION, The case of Wintringham vs. Adger, which was before the Supreme Court a few days since, is an illustration of the mass of litigation whioh has arisen out of the rebellion, and which will oooupy the attention and time of the courts over the whole land to a very great degree. As near as we can gather from the facts stated in the affidavits in the caje, whioh came Up on a motion to open judgments entered five years ago, the case was substantially as follows: Previous to the rebellion there was a valuable line of steamers running be? tween this city and Charleston, part ot the owners residing at each end of the route. When the Con-, fl scat ion Aot began to be enforced here, as a mat? ti r of course the owners here wore brought to ask what they should do in reference to the vessels, ff they did nothing, the interests belonging to the Southern owners would be seized by the Govern? ment and confiscated, a proceeding whioh would not only take away the property from their asso? ciates, for whom they naturally still felt a friendly interest, but would be an injury to themselves by the tying up of the vessels while the confiscation proceedings wero going on. Doubtless, if they bad then known what was to be the course of the war and of matters at the olose of it, they would have deemed it wiser not to attempt to avoid the Confiscation Act at all, but to allow the Govern? ment to secure all the aid which the seizure of those interests would have afforded. But as mat? ters then looked,- they determined upon a different course. Tho idea suggested itself of having the inter? ests of tho Southern owners sold under execution for a small Bum. For this purpose there must be a suit, and a suit against all the owners was the best snape to put it in. This was an easy thing to put on foot. The vessels wore all tho time in need of sup? plies, and it was a very simple matter to have some party who had furnished such supplies com? mence a suit against all the owners to reoover the price. No sooner said than done. Suits were commenced and the summonses served on the owners here, who immediately, by virtue of their authority as part owners, employed an attorney to represent all the owners and offered judgment for the amounts claimed, and on executions issued upon these judgments the various steamships were sold for less than $2000 each (some arrange? ment being made, of course, to Heep off other bidders), bought in by the plaintiffs, and at once transferred by them to the Northern owners. So far the plan worked wo ll. '/The interests of the Southern owners being thus disposed of, there was no confiscation or tying up of the ves? sels, and they were in position to take their share of the immense ancTprofltable business whioir war enjoyed by steamers during the war ia the Gov? ernment service. But now comes up another as fieot of the affair. The rebellion being over, and he Southern owners being thoroughly recon? structed and having their pardons in their pock? ets, naturally begin to inquire what became of their interests in these vessels, and finding that they were not confiscated, but had passed into the hands of their co-owners in this manner, they raise objections to this mode of proceeding, want their interests handed over to them again, and, we presume, want their share of the profits earn? ed by the vessels while in the servioe of the Gov? ernment to help put down the rebellion. And as the parties oannot agree about this, the Southern owners apply to the courts and ask to have the judgments Bet aside. Whether thoy can succeed in doing this remains to bo seen. That applica? tion will bring up the question of the right of a part owner of a snip to retain an attorney for all the owners, of the power of the court to open a judgmont after the lause of five years.and whether the court will, in its discretion, open a judgment, which appears to have been given for no more than waB actually due, and to be regular in form, merely because of the ulterior results of that judgment. It will be interesting to see what con? clusion the courts come to upon these questions. But that conclusion qan hardly be decisive of the controversy, which must, if it be contested to the end, bring up in some Way for decision by a Court of Equity, the question what were the rights and duties of the part owners under tho circumstances in whioh they were placed and what are their rights and duties now. And if the court shall hold that the sale did not effect the interests of the owners as among themselves, but that the purchase of the vesselB by one was for the benefit of all, and that tho fact that the claimants were rebels at the time does not alter the case, we do not see but they will bo entitled to share in the profits of tho vessels in aidiug to suppress tho re? bellion. AH we said in the beginning, this is but one in? stance of the varied litigations whioh must arise out of the rebellion. The relations between the North and the South wore so intimate and com? plicated, and the condition of things during the rebellion BO anomalous, and the effect of the rebellion, and of what has transpired since its suppression, BO doubtful, that the minds of law? yers and judges are sure to be harassed with new and intrioate questions arising out of thom for years._ The Bureau in Texas, The Bureau in Toxas is a faroe, and to some ox tent, I fear, is a mischievous one. The State is utterly unmanageable for Bureau purposes. Its vast extent places it beyond the roaoh of any or? dinary mechanism of centralized government. To attempt to regulate the lab >r question in Texas by means of a Freedmen's Bureau is very much like tickling a rhinoceros with a straw. The stations .are necessarily so far apart, communi? cation is a work of BO much difficulty, that I am understating matters whon I say that to half the colored population of Texas tho Bureau ia utterly inaccessible. I have conversed with many persons who have passed through these un bareau pro? tected districts. My informants, Northern men and Southern men, one and all, assure me that in these counties the negroes are working as well, or better, are as kindly treated and earn as high wages, as in any other part of the State. I can answer for other districts where there is a Bu? reau, and where its maladministration baa re? sulted in injury to the negro. BUREAU PLANTING. The Bureau in Texas is looked upon by the citizens generally asa planting Bureau, and in 30Q10 districts grave complaints are made of the manner in which negroes have been kidnapped from one plantation to be Bot to work on another, in which an agent of the Bureau is int-rested. rhe newspapers assert, and public rumor sup? ports tho assertion, that Gen. Gregory, the late Assiataut Commissioner of the State, who has re sently been relieved, is engaged largely in plant? ing, and the number of his plantations is various? ly stated at from 15 to 27. It ia strange with what iteration theao words, "Gen. Gregory'a plantation," have rung in my ears. It reminds one of the stratagem of "Puss in Boots," wbo in? structed every ono to reply, when asked who [iwuL'd tho lands and houses round them, "The Marquis of Carrabas." Meet au oki dalkey on Ihe road, "?Yell, uucle, whvre do you work?' "Oh, I work on Gen. Gregory's plantation.?? Gome to question him, and yon find he knows nothing more than that people say it is Gen. Gregory's plantation, and that he supposes it is, bat that somebody else hired him and pays bint his wages.. This (morning Gens.! Steedman and Fullerton were Bitting in the Bureau here when in came a fat, old mulatto woman, to complain of injustice) that had been done her by some other negro on Gen. Gregory's plantation. This caef- being looked into, yielded something a little more tangible, bat not muon so. There was a sou of Gen. Gregory known to be a partner in the farm, and Gen. Gregory himself occasionally visited it. Five dif? ferent plantations in tho neighborhood of How ton were mentioned to meas being Gen. Gregory'? plantations; yet no one brought forward any legal proof to sustain these assertions, a id all tue Bu? reau agents the O immissioners have examined, state positively th*t Gen. Gregory is not, to th? best of their knowledge, interested ia anv planta? tions at all. Thus the matter stands. Who caa unravel it? Some Puss in Boots has certainly been along and set down all these farms to tho Marquis of Oarrabas. ? severe thunder storm passed over Wheeling on .Sunday night. ? number of .bridges, culverts, telegraph poles and houses were wasued away. A family of seven persons, named Robertson, living six miles west of Wheeling, ou the National Road, were oarried away by the flood, and all perished. A man and woman were killed by lightning in tua city. The trains ou the Ooluoabm and Pittsburg Railroad stopped running on Monday, in conse? quence of the bridges at Portland and Bridgeport being washed away.
