It thinks that tho law officers of tho two countries could, in a few hours, frame a perfectly satisfactory settlement.

St. Leger Grenfell, convicted by military commission in Cincinnati, in '65, of a con? spiracy to release the prisoners at Camps Douglas and Chase.

Thc Condition of Trade. The Now York Times, in noticing the remarks of | a Western journal, that "the entire Northwest is overrun by drummers for Eastern houses, whoso only desire seems to be to get orders and fill them, regardless of tho ability of those who order to pay their bills at maturity," remarks, that "twelve months ago a similar warning came from the South. Eastern houses that sought opportunity for expansion sold freely on credit, and a very large proportion of tho goods romain unpaid for to this day. Weak traders suffer in consequence, and other inconveniences are aggravated by the unpromising aspect of Southorn indebtedness." It cautions against crediting the Wost any more than the South, alleging that reports from tho West provo the nocossity of extreme caution, and quotes tho Chicago Tribune aa a witness. That paper says: "Front every quarter thero is but ono 11 responso-'dull.' In the country businoss is very slow. Tho interior dealers are selling little; tho formers are not paying up, and in numerous parts sf tho country we hoar of failures. Merchants in irrears and unable to pay are making assignments md in some instances fraudulent transfers of wopirty heve been made." On which the Times remarks : "What moro ominous stato uf things could wo have? Tho 'armers not settling their store accounts, thc store seopers selling little and paying something near to lothing, are the incipient symptoms of the trickery 1 md fraud which in tho West presage the coming < >f tight times. Surely these aro circumstances ' ?ot favorable to thc future of tho Eastern mer- < :hants who now open Western credits." Of thc South it observes : "Tho general condi- 11 ion of affairs there precludes the possibility of re? luctances for goods supplied from the North, or he growth of a demand for further supplies, < Vesward and Southward everything points to tho " leccsaity of more than common prudence on the tart of Eastern merchants and manufacturers Che times are dull here undoubtedly. The flush uro ally incident to the season has not shown itself ? his year. Manufacturers discover that, the do oana on which thoy calculated has suddenly sub- 11 ?dod, and that the enorm JUS profits to which they I lave become accustomed will not bo realized dur- j i og tho passing period. Tho presence in our 1 itios of a largo amount of. unemployed, or onlv lartially employed labor, must tell upon general inamess as certainly as it reveals stagnation in ertain branches of industry. Turn which way 11 'ou will, then, facts exist which establish tho laramount importance of avoiding riskv ventures, jul refusing al/oolutelj tu ulu.a "ti.o ?wulit. lystem." The New York Journal of Commerce romarks : 'The market is less reassured than was expected, ind advices from tho interior aro lesa favorable han anticipated. The West has not sold its pro? ducts as largely as usual, or at as satisfactory prices, and country merchants are making very aoor returns upon the credits granted them, while many who bought for cash have a largo portion of | their stock on hand unsold." After a further survey of che field that paper soncludes thus : "It was perfectly natural for Wostern fanners md dealers to look for such prices for their pro? duce as would offset, in some measure, thc enor? mous advance in all othor goods. They were told that thc protective tariff would give thom such au equivalent, and some of them behoved it. In the md they must be undeceived; and wo shall not be surprised if this season should bring them to that jitter experience." Plus the ?VI ii th at Christmas-Address to the Sacred College, At the reception of the cardinals and pontifical mthorittes at tho Vatican ou Christmas day, Pius [X improvised an energetic reply to au address of ilevotodness read to him. First of all he thanked the cardinals for their congratulations and the constant attachment which they had shown for him personally. He said that in tho limos in which ho found himself, he derived a powerful en? couragement from seeing himself surrounded by tho affection and counsels of tho ?sacred College. Replying to the observations of Cardinal Patrusi, who bad been spokesman, ho added that ho was tranquil, because he know that in the present atrugglc he defended the cause of God and of thc Church, and therefore he relied on the assistance of the Lord. He said, with the prophetic David, "Tho Lord ia my fight, the protector of my life; whom shall I fear?" His H-finoss afterwards said that it was necessary to bo prepared for all to enduro every persecution. Ho also obsorvod j that a few days before he had received letters (rom the Corea relative to the deaths which several missionaries have suffered in that country. Only two of them were successful in escaping from the ferocity of thoir persecutors, and it was they who forwarded to Borne the narrative of tho mar? tyrdom of their colleagues. The Pope oxpressed the opinion that it was necessary to be ready to suffer everything for the Church, which now-a-days is persecuted in Europe by deceptions, seductions, lying promises, and by unjust demands and exac? tions. Certain persons, by Oie aid of rare dipio- j rnatic skiU, and putting forward great assurances 1 to induce the Holy Soe to make concessions. These people act as the Devil did wlien lie templed j Christ on the mountain, showing him all the king? doms of the world, and saying ne would give him them if he would fall down and worship him. As Tor ns, said his Holiness, wo (hall not allow our? selves to be eoduced by such proceedings. Others | come with the olivo branch or peace, but requiro that their will should be submitted to. Well, we shall always continue td reject false offers, and 1 repel everything that is contrary to the principles of justice, to the good of tho Church, ana the dig? nity of the Holy See. We desire peace, but a peace that should not bo offensive to the honor of "God and of His religion. Such is a summary of tho allocution delivered with great vivacity by the Holy Father. S APEO tr ABD FOB STBEET BATLBOAD C ABS.-An im? portant invention for the protection of life and Limb against the-'troquent accidents that occur from street railroad cars, was tented in Philadel? phia on Friday. With a view of demonstrating the entire security which the "safeguard" affords, tho inventor, Mr. Thomas Gillen, at different places and at different times, threw himself imme- ! diately under tho forward wheel of tho car pro? tected by his guard, and was in every instance pushed asido from the track without hoing hurt in j any way. His safeguard appeared to be entirely success? ful, but a curious circumstance connected with his experiments was that a number of persons who witnessed them, seeing him throwing himself un der the wheels of a moving car, thought he was crazy and trying to commit suicide. Some of them made very active efforts to restrain him, but wore much astonished on both occasions to soo bim thrown out from under the wheels unharmed. The device is very simple, consisting of a plate of metal called a "shoe," another called a "shield," an iron lover rod, and a spiral spring; the whole of which, it is said, will cost but threo dollars for each wheel it is applied to. The contrivance is self-adjusting, and while it will throw off the track a human be? ing, or an animal, or any movable thine-, it will fa ss over any fixed obstruction, such as a break in he roil or an unevenly laid joint. It is well wor? thy tho attention of the Passenger Railway Com? panies of this city and others in the State. Trenton (N. J.) Gazette. THE CBTBT.VL PALACE FIBE IN LONDON.-London journals received yesterday bring full particulars of tho disastrous fire at tho Crystal Polaco in that city on the 80th ultimo, which was only briefly announced by Cable dispatch. Tho damage is estimated at a million dollars. Tho tropical de ?aliment was destroyed, including the Indian, gyp ti an Alhambra, Assyrian and Art Courts, with nearly all their contents. Tho progress of tba flames was arrested by tearing np floors and de? molishing tho wood work. So great was the body of flame when the north part of tho roof fell in that but for the fortunate direction of the wind nothing could have been saved. Few of the birds and animals were rescued. A great many rare and preci?os works of art were destroyed. .. [Providence Journal. The little piccaninnies of Athens, Ga., say that tho two Yankee school-marms of that placo have invented a whipping machine which holds a cow hido and '^just whips itself." They declare they "won't gwine back no more norther," CHARLESTON", S. C Georgia Items. STEAM FIRE ENOINE.-Yosterdav afternoon, with scvoral members of the Augusta Fire Department, including Chief Engineer Flatt, and member? of the City Council, we witnossed tho trial of tho steam flro engine Niagara, rocontly received at tho United States Arsenal, near this city. Tho Niagara was made by L. Button, Waterford, New York, on tho style "and plan of tho patent granted Button Sc Blake May, 18G4. In workman? ship and finish tho Niagara is a beautiful masliene, and, with ono exception, performed to tho admira? tion of all who witnessed thc trial. From some cause it could not sustain a pressure of steam, or in other words, did not make steam as fast as it expended it. The day was very unfavorable to properly test thc Niagara's qualities for throwing water, as tho wind was blowing vory strong; yet she (or it) threw a stream through a 1} inch nozzle a distance of 185 feot; had thore been no wind blowing, tho distance would have boon much greater. The day, as wc have said, waa very unfavorable, and we think another trial should be givon the machine before a verdict is rendered. [Augusta Constitutionalist. ACCIDENT.-On Tuesday afternoon last, about five o'clock, Captain Euko Christie was engaged in overseeing the hauling of some lumber across two scows, lying on the opposite Bide of the river. Talting a handspiko for tho purpose of prying a log offT he slipped, and ono of his legs catching between two of thc logs, ho was precipitated into tho river. Ho swum ashore, when it was found that ho had broken his anklo and sustainod a com? pound fracturo of the log, making necessary the amputation of the limb at the knee-joint, which was pctformed by Drs. King, Schley and Scherzer. At last accounts the Captain' was doing well. We sincerely sympathize with Captain Christie, who is favorably known and highly respected in tho community, and trust that no may speedily recover_Savannah. Republican. A DELICATE HINT.-The Atlanta New Era gives the following vory delicate hint to the military stationed at that placo. It says : "We are in? formed that a portion of tho men comprising the garrison at this point aro becoming quite intole? rable, and if they aro not put under a more rigid discipline, we shall tako the liberty of reporting tho fact to a gentleman in Washington, known as General Grant, who has tho happy faculty of set? tling matters of like character, without the ordi? nary delay known in businoss circles." Tbo <'omine; Senator from Pennsylvania. Tho New York World publishes a lotter written in August, 18G5, in which Mr. KELLY, Representa? tivo in Congress from Pennsjivania, sketches something of the life and public services of his brother Republican, SIMON CAMERON, whom the Legislature of that State has just pronounced a better man than STEVENS or FORNEY, by electing him to thc Scnato over both of thom, by six or oight to ono. We give a few extracts: I was bnt a youth when I first heard tho name of Simon Cameron, and it was as tho perpetrator of a great crime. He had been made tho agent of the Government to carry a large amount of money due them to the Winnebago Indians, and had taken advantage of their ignorance and helplessness to onrich himself. Tboso of you who had then at? tained manhood, though yon may not, after the lapso of so manj* years, revive the' burning indig? nation with which you regarded the infamous swindler of the poor Indians, will doubtless re uember that, instead of paying them the specie which the Government confided to him for that jurpose, he retained it and gave them the notes of die Middletown Bank, of which ho w?s an owner, flt thoir encampment in the remoio wilderness, '.hese notes were utterly worthless. Tho Indian ;ould not use thom for any purpose there, nor car? ly them to Middletown fof redemption. But what vos that to Simon Cameron? Was not their loss lis gain, and was ho not so much the richer by ivory note that failed to como home for redempt? ion, though they did suffer and starve? And ;hose of you who aro not old enough to remember ill this now know why this bold bad man is some? times spoken ot by your seniors as tho "Groat Win ?ebago," and sometimes as "Old Kickapoo." Foi" moro than thirty years I have watched tho ortuous career of this man, and have never seen eason to abandon my first impression of his char icter. * ****** I need not recito the disgraceful facts attending lia sovernl canvasses for the United States Senate. Their nauseous odor lingers in your nostrils to this lour. lu the first he bought the votes of the bree Democratic mern' ors. and in tho last bid ;20,000 for tho ono vote which would have elected The evil report of his deeds pervades tho coun? ty as a reproach to our State. Yes, unhappy for ?onnsyl vania and her great interests, tho buzzard ringed fame of Simon Como on is national. By nonths of abject solicitation and corrupt bargain nsr. he procured a mass of letters, certificates and .eeant?tioiis that uupuai-u nun u^.. r? :oln os thc representative, man of tho Keystone ?tato. That was an evil hour for Pennsylvania. * **?.** As I have said he begged and bargained for the nfiuencc which induced Mr. Lincoln to invite him a a scat in his Cabinet. It was now fondly hoped Dy thoa J who hod not sounded the dopth of his lepravity, that, being old and rich, he would take idvantage of so distinguished an opportunity to prove that he could be honest, and could adminis? ter trust without turning it to his profit, or band? og the fund over to his creatures, to be used on oint account. How sadly those hopes wore dis ippointed is attested by the brevity of bis term of J lice, and the circus tan ces under which it clos ed. In less than one year from the day on which Si? non Cameron was installed as Secretary of War, Congress, though at that early day it had before it jut partial evidence of his crimes, indignantly Irove him from that high office. Two-thirds of the members of the lower Honso wore friends of tho Administration, and would gladly have h un? tamed each member of it as they did its distin? guished head. * * * * But it became inevitable; for this Did man, notwithstanding his boasted and reputed taillions, behaves that one of his name is never rich enough until he hos a little more, and, to save their party and the country, tbo friends of the Ad mini tration in tho House had to proclaim his in? famy and denounce his crimes. Nor was the vote Dy which thoy did it a meagre one. His friends, ind those who would most gladly have averted this disgrace from our State, could rally but about one third of tho House against the resolution of con? demnation. The vote was about two to one against aim. Mining In Upper Georgia There is great activity in the mining interest of iiui-thorn and northeastern Georgia. A writer in thc Journal and Messonger refers to a number of martz veins opened near Ackworth, on the State rood. One is owned by Dr. Hamilton, another by Major Latimer, of ft! aeon. Besides these aro the ;'Paine," 1 Grantham,'' "Baldwin," and "Cox" -aines, all within four miles rf Ackworth. In Cherokee county several mines have been opened Dy O'Neil, Foster & Co., and one by Brolly & Cow in, on which nuggets weighing two ounces have Deon found. Near this is the "Bell mine," and several others of promise, opened by Major Gold? smith. All these are within seven miles of Ac leorth. Tho Athens Watchman refers to rich discoveries in White and Bumpkin counties. Dahlonega is srowded with miners, and every night presents rory much tho appearance of a mining town in Cal? ifornia. The Yahoola nuning company are pre? paring, with great energy, to wash down a moun ti in close by, which promises fine results. Ai Louds ville the Lewis gold mine is worked apon a large scale, under tbe direction of Capt. B. Ft. Asbury, a mining engineer, who hos had long experience there and in California, and very exten? sive machinery for crushing the quartz has been brought out by New York and Boston companies. Work is going on at a number of other points. One of the most extensive is at Naucooubce, in "White county, on lands of Mr. Richardson and others, leased by the "Naucoochee HydrauUe Company." They have brought water eight miles, and with heavy hose pipes ore washing down the high hill called Hanby Mountain at severalpoints, with very encouraging success. This ia a Boston company, under Mr. Dean, who came to White from the mines in North Carolina several years before the war, and found tbe largest nugget ol pure gold ever seen in the another over half _ his hands nearly two pounds of gold Srocured at one washing 1 Is there anything in alifornia or Australia much richer than this ? The hose pipes are tearing up the whole face of nature and making gullies ono hundred feet deep in a few days. In Union and Babnn parties are finding encouragement to invest capital in new localities, and miners are coming in from North Carolina and elsewhere, and infusing a new energy in the nuning interest.-DaJdcmega Signal. MAXIMILIAN'S COEN?.-Tbe New York Numismat? ic Society are making themselves merry about a silver dollar issued by Maximilian, Emperor of Mexico, wbi:h is on exhibition in that city. .The Emperor, whose effigy is on tho coin, has a beard, which is so drawn as to bear, when the coin is turned upside down, a striking resemblance to the head of a donkey. Tho New York numismatics have had a gravo discussion to decide whether this resulted from design or was an intentional piece of satire on the part of the artist. The Mexicana are lucky, however, to have oven donkey-marked silver in circulation, for our coins have been so long ont of sight that the public generally have forgotten whether eagles or donkeys have most to do in or? namenting them. She was and abe wasn't. Hahn, last year, went to Washington as a Senator from the State of Lou? isiana; now he is there to prove that Louisiana is not a State; of course, then, be was an impostor as a pretended Senator. When Genera! Butler was in Louisiana, "it was intimated to bim from Washington that it would be desirablo to select two members of Congress from New Orleans and tho contiguous parishes;" to carry ont Ulis sug? gestion he sent General Weitzel with an army through the Lafonrche country, to clear the coun? try of "rebels," and thus make it "loyal" enough to vote for a Republican Congressman.

The straining eyes, thc ghastly look, tho clammy brow, thc clutched hands, the wild, agonizing gozo of tho wrecked and ruined soul, are evidences of hopeless misery and forerunners of that "deathless death.'* whose burning thirst shall know no quenching. Bat to the aged saint, who can say to the JR wording Angel, "I pray thee then Write mo os ono Who loved his fellow-men," and who, tortured with pain and excruciating agony, Death's summons are but tho portals through which to pass into an endless glory-thus died, without a groan or sieh* and amid relatives woeping around his conch, our beloved Grandfather. A peaceful smile upon bis face, a tear of ecstatic joy upon his furrowed chock, a look breathing blessings upon all mankind, and tho last struggle is over, the fight is fought, the lost victory over life's temptations gained; and with tho frosts and snows of many winters settled upon that dear old head, he u consigned to that rest where tito wicked coaso from humbling, and where suffering cannot reach. "May our kurt end bo Uko his." ? ? ? X3~ Tlu Relatives, Friends and Acquain? tances of Mr. and Mrs. D. LnjENTHAt., ot' Mr. F. OsTEn HOLTZ, of Mr. and Mrs. D. OstXRUO*.TZ. of Mr. and Mrs. C.
