The immense intrenchmcnts around Mobile have "been levelled or filled up so as now to leavo scarce? ly a vestige. The people of Frankfort, Ky., were having a glorious time on ice, at last accounts. Skating and a game called ' Bandy" were all the go. The railroads in this country employ 200,000 men. and at least 1,000,000 men, women and chil? dren, depend for their support upon the railroad interest. Admiral BnanoBS has arrived at Alexandria, and entered upon the duties of the Professorship of Modern Philosophy, in tho State Seminary, to .which he was recently elected. Three hundred million pounds of tobacco is the estimated crop of tobacco raised in tho United j States the past year. Ten pounds to every person j is a pretty good supply. Returns received at the office of tb? Secretary of State, of Maine, show that during last year there ?were 265 bears killed in that State. In Penobocot oount7 alone there were 109 killed, and in the town of Lincoln, 45. The Lynchburg Hews, of the 3d, says fifteen head of cattle, purchase! in Southern Virginia, passed through that city recently, whose aggre? gate weight was 27,960 pounds, an average of 1864 pounds to the head.. The funeral of Gen. WM. BARKSDALE, C. S. A., who was killed at Gettysburg, took place Thurs? day from the State House in Jackson, Miss. The ceremonies were very grand and imposing, and the procession almost endless. foreign newspapers notice the fact that a lino of steam carriages for common roads has just been established between Marseilles and Aubagne, a distance of ten miles. Three trains run daily each way, and the cost per passenger for the round trip is only about a quarter of a dollar. Tho census of New York city shows a population of hardly three-quarters of a million, and Brook? lyn has less than three hundred thousand-the two cities footing up 1,022,764. In New York there are 38,024 more women than mon, and in Brooklyn the excess of women is 13,357. It waa so cold in Lorisville the other day that an Irish woman, washing at a wash tub, had the garments frozen in her hands, and three lines of "Rory O'More" stretching from her mouth frozen as ehe sung them. We do not vouch for this, but PRENTICE does. Tue trial of the railroad robbers has been in progress at Franklin, Tennessee, since Tuesday. EVANS and CORNWALL, tw?ofthe prisoners, gave evidence for the prosecution and confessed their own guilt. The case for the prosecution was , closed yesterday. The Philadelphia Nbrlh American says the car? go cf wheat which lately arrived there from Cali? fornia, was brought all the way by sea from San ' Francisco, at a less rate per bushel than is charged by railroad from Chicago. No more striking il? lustration could be given of the great disadvantage of locations far in the interior. A man who advertised to give the '-best of sound, practical advice for fifty cents, that would he applicable at any time, and to all persons and conditions of life," OE application of a victim, "per mail," sent the following: "Never give a boya dime wo retch your shadow while you climb atre : to look into the middle of next week. It don't pay." EDWARD MAGUIRE, a typo, of Saratoga Springs, insists that the bones recently found at Cohoes are not those of a mastodon, but of an elephant . which was interred in a swamp at Cohoes in No . -vember, 1828, and he brings forward in proof an "old and reliable " citizen of Saratoga who travel? ed with the menagerie to which the elephant be . longed. During the year 1866, 31,889 emigrants passed Columbus, westward bound, against 15,110 in '865, showing an increase in year past of 16,749. Of the 31,889 reported, 12,811 stopped in Ohio, 6876 in Missouri, 5030 in Illinois, 8125 in Indiana, 650 in Tennessee, 819 in Wisconsin, 381 in Iowa, 1657 in Kentucky, 245 in Michigan, 222 in Kansas, and 73 in Alabama. j An atrocious attempt was made a few days since to blow up a brick block at St. Joseph, Mo., by j three or four parties, who have not yet been arrest- j ed. The proprietors of tho block discovered a lighted candle burning in the bnsement, with a I train of cotton leading to a keg of power, and ex? tinguished it in time to prevent the explosion, j ' There were about fifty people in tho block. An Oxford undergraduate carno into the Bank- ] Taptoy. Court in England, three or four woeks ago, with a trifle less than ?3000 debts, and a credit side of ab:ut ?260. His allowance had boen ?200 a. year. On that sum bo had hired rooms on High j street, in addition to his college apartments in Oriel, and had frequented Langham Hotel iu Lon? don, and the Grande Hotel in Paris. j The death of a very aged member of the British j aristocracy is announced. The Dowager Lady TAKE, the widow of a man who lived one hundred and six years ago, and who herself was ninety- j three, has just died. She was the daughter of Mr. 1 JOHN BOWERBANK, of Johnby, Cumberland, and was married to Sir FREDERICK FLETCHES VA .VE seventy years ago. It is from this family that Earl YAKS is descended. The losses by the cattle disease in England ore I sst down in the newspapers of that country at $17,S6o,000 in poid. Of the animals seized with the disease 210,000 are dead-the Government slaughtered 53,000 to prevent the spread of thc plague. To these must be added 100,000 other j ?tiiTniiR that were prematurely butchered for fear j they might be attacked, the meats from which wore sold at about half-price in the market. An 08wego (N. Y.) newspaper says that hog cholera (trichina)) is raging throughout Illinois and northern Kentucky, and defying all remedies, j A western carcass, apparently healthy and un -usually fat, was examined a few days since, reveal- j inc millions of trichina? in a mouthful of fat, vary- j in g from atoms scarcely ' perceptible to worms two inches long. j Some of the St. Louis capitalists have a grand project for building five hundred dwellings four miles from the city, embracing a plan for gas and water works, a railroad direct to the location, and ether elements of a foll sized city. It is said that | the necessary stock has already been subscribed, and it is proposed to secure lessees lor houses in advance of the erection. There can be no doubt that the enterprise will be a paying one, and at the j same time be a great convenience to reuters. j The Baton Rouge Carnet says that among tho munificent donations lately received by the La- j dies' Benevolent Association of that city, from the J ladies of the Southern Fair Association at St. j Louis, was a large box crammed full of dry goods, I dress goods and ready made dresses of different j sizes, all of which have been safely stowed away j for careful and judicious distribution among the suff.ring poor, as fast as emergencies requiring I ' such distribution aro discovered. I i Among the other defences of England is a vol- I * "unteer staff corps, formed of railway officials, which is so thoroughly organized that it under- i takes, "in a space of thirty hours, to place in any , given spot 150,000 troops, 60,000 horses, and 100 guns," and not only that, but "to collect in twenty four hours 80,000 'narie3' for the construction of fortificati. and field works." The defensive army 1 of England numbers 50,000 regular troops, 120,000 ] xailitia, and 150,000 volunteers. The celebrated preacher, PEBE HYACINTHE, is at , present giving a course of lectures at Notre Dame, in Paris. Ho is described as a fine-looking man. ' of about 40 years of age, handsome featurc?, an ' aquiline nose, somewhat full and sensual lips, and 1 a well-squared chin. He presents an imposing ap- j I pearance in the pulpit, attired in the costume of ? his order-a dress of coarse, brown woolen, and ] hood and capote of white, naked feet and sandals, - a closely-shaven head, with the exception of the short ring of dark hair, which just stops short of ' the temple's. s Returns received at the General Land Office 1 show that an aggregate of 22,751 acres of the pub- ' lie land were disposed of dur?is the month of < December last at the following local offices: Falls , of St. Croix, Wisconsin, 5803 acres; Stevens'Purni, , Wisconsin, 5920 acres; Winnebago City, Minnesota, 3715 acres; and at Ironton, Missouri, 3715 acres.

THURSDAY MORNING, JANUARY 17,1867. PARDONS. Much has been said of lato about Ibe Presi? dent's pardoning power, and tbc Radicals, with characteristic narrow-mindedness, have re? pealed the Act of Congreis which assumed a superior meaning to the constitutional powers conferrod upon the President. As a matter of curiosity to the Radicals, we publish the sub I joined "Act of Pardon and Oblivion," passed by thc North Carolina Stata Legislature in 1783, "for '.he benefit of such American citizens in that State as had supported the King and Parliament during thc war of the Revolution." It will be remembered by the readers of history, that soon after the war the Rritish Government adopted an Act which extended full pardon and amnesty to such British subjects as had aided the Colonies in obtaining their independence. Thus it seems that "the barbarians" of one hundred years ago wore superior to tho present advanced Puritanical civilization in sympathy for mankind and their misfortunes. It will be seen froi the "Act" wc publish that our fathers would not only pardon an offence, called by GEORGE III. treason, but that they were willing that Hie offence should bc buried in "oblivion." They knew, good men they were, and honest and true, that thousands of good citizens con? scientiously believed that they owed their first allegiance to their mother country, and they, therefore, had no idea of persecuting them for their honest convictions. Thc war being over, they believed that such citizess, if taken by thc hand, would be as faithful to the new govern? ment as they had been to tho old. Tho follow? ing is tho Aot referred lo: AN ACT OF PARDON AND OBLIVION. WHEREAS, It is tho policy of all wise Slates, on tho termination of all civil wars, to grant an Act of pardo a and oblivion for past offences: And, as divers of the citizens of this State, and other in? habitants thereof, in the courso of the lato un? happy war, have become liable lo great pains and penalties for offencos committed against the peace and government ri this State: And the General Assembly, out of our earnest desire to observo tho article- of peace, and on all occasions disposed to forgive offences rather than punish, where the necessity foran exemplary punishment has ceased : Be it therefore enacted by the General Assembly of the State of North Carolina, and it is hareby enacted by thc authorities o? the same, that all manner of treasons, misprison of treason, felony or misdemeanor, committed or done sinco the 4th day of July, 1776, by any person or persons, whatsoever, bo pardoned, released, and put in total oblivion. We could ask Congress-but what is the use of asking them anything?-to contrast this language and spirit with that evinced by them just now, whose doings are calculated to engender a feeling of hatred that will live long after this generation shall have passed away. WENDELL PHILLIPS AND THE .GREEKS. _ On Monday, the 7ih inst., the PhU/icllenet had a grand meeting in Boston, to express their sympathy with the Candiotes in their present unequal struggle against the Turks. WENDELL PHILLIPS, it appears, was the Cory phseiis of these modern Greeks, and he then and there arose and made a mighty speech, full of HOMER and CICERO, ARISTOTLE and VIRGIL. j Thc modern Athenians listened and wondered. The Courrier des Etats Unis goes to the trouble of criticising this classic oration, and while it fully concurs wita the meeting, in an expres? sion of sympathy for the Candiots, it at the same time shows that tho new Athenian orator was not very well informed on matters per? taining to cither modern or ancient Greece. Slr. P. discovers an analogy in thc character and conditions of the people of Greece and New England, upon which the Courrier re? marks : If this is said of thc ancient Greeks, we do not see how they have merited such deg? radation; they, who have given to the world so much that is great and beneficial,-who have carried lo thc pinnacle of perfection all that can elevate thc soul or invigorate the intellect, -while New Euglaud has never produced aught but cant and sewiug machines. But if Mr. PHILLIPS had. roforence to the modern Greeks, we still cannot see any reason for his comparison. True, the proverbial charac? ter of the modern Greek for commercial hon? esty is only so-so ; and in this alone can we see any truth in the comparison. But in this, also, great injustice is done to the Greeks; for this odium has been thrown upon them because of the unprincipled conduct of their country? men in other lauds, rather than from any short? comings of the great mass of the home popu? lation. Mr. PHILLITS endeavored to show that the Greeks and the Yankees resembled each other like two drops of water; whereas it would be difficult to find two natures move dif? ferent, and who, with a thousand striking con? trasts, have but one point of analogy,-and that is, that they are both very sharp at a bar? gain. The Courrier winds up a long article on thc subject by saying, that this whole matter was no business of the Americans ; and that Europe must establish a sort of MONROE doctrine of its own to keep thc Yankees from intermed? dling with its affairs, just as the latter do not permit the Powers of Europe to interfere on this Continent. CONGRESSIONAL GAS. A few days ago we called the attention of our readers to the probabilities of an early great National Whiskey Distillery Consolida? tion. Now it is our duty to advertise the new gas enterprise, prepared by Congress,-not mere bnncomb, this time, but genuine carbu rated bydrogen. Congress will soon bake all the bread, light the lamps, and wash thc dirty linen. Wrc arc rapidly drifting into a great communistic ^despotism. The following, from 3uc of our exchanges, will explain thc new evolution of gas: "A great revolution is about to take place in lie method of supplying gas in all thc cities in thc Union. Under the new plan it is contem? plated to manufacturo gas on a large scale, ivith immense works, in the immediate neigh jorhooil of the coal mines, where coal can be purchased for fifty cents per ton, und to con? roy it through mains to the several cities, ?.hero it can bc consumed at one-quarter its present cost. The Atlantic cities and interior cities ol' the Northern States will be supplied from the coal mines of Pennsylvania direct ?rom one company. Ano!her will manufacture it the coal mines ol' Virginia and North Caro? lina, and supply thc Southern cities ami (owns, flic West will get their gas from thc Missouri nines : and so on throughout the Union. These .everal projects will bc conducted as national iffatrs, under the authority of Congress. The immen.se advantages of such a system arc ut ince apparent. They reach not only to the great reduction in price, but io the improve? ment in the quality of the gas, and the banish? ment of gus manufacturing nuisances from thc cities. Preparations are already in a forward condition for thc consummation of ibis desira? ble reform, and it will bc an established fact in le?* than three years from thc present time." WANTS.
