Times give?tho following .in dits : s From the report in the London Times of a recent hearing in one of *'\e cases pending in relation to rebel property, befor J vice-Chancellor Wood, it appears that the recent newspaper comments in the United States in relation to the recent settlement, do irjustice to Messrs. Morse and Gibbs, the officers by whom it was arranged. The arrangement provided for a Btatemont under oath of all property under the contrcl of Fraser, Trenholm & Co., and its transfer to tho United States, subject to legal lisns thereon for advances, such liens not to be allowed beyond ?150,000. The whole legal lien was shown, by the sworn statement from the books of the firm named, to be ?270,000, or thereabouts. The Chancery suits brought to recover the property wore to be dis contmued, each party paying its own costs. The property consisted chiefly of Bhips and of other properly of a perishable character which, by the agreement, was to be at once sold, and the proceeds, after the discharge of tho hens, paid to the United States. It is stated that after this settlement, other rebel agents voluntarily came forward and offered to surrender property, and that all or nearly all the rebol effects in Europe were about to be reduced to the possession of the United States, without suit, when the settlements were suspended by order of Mr. Seward. vice Chancellor Wood is probably correct in surmising that some diplomatic reasons prevented tho clos? ing of the arrangement ir? the forra agreed upon. Judge Redfield, of Vermont, has been sent to England to confer with aU parties, and his report wilt probably determine tho final action of the Government. This arrangement is said to meet with the hearty concurrence of all parties. THE IMPEACHMENT. The Judiciary Committee aro still at work clos? ing up old business before commencing their ex? amination into the impeachmsnt charges of Mr. Ashley. It is stated on good authority that no subponaB have been issued for witnesses* for that Earp?se, although the names of many rt them ave been obtained. Mr. Wilson in the* House to? day emphatically announced that all the state? ments regarding the action of the Committee here? tofore published were false, and refused to jive the ?lignte3^ insight into its designs. He caution? ed the public against reports with reference to the operations of the Committee. Miss ANN P. CUNNINGHAM, Regent of the Ladies? Mount Vernon Association, has made a report, showing the receipts to date to be about S2C0,000, of which EDWARD EVERETT raised $68,000. The .purchase' has been completed, and $23,000 spent in repairs. Staid Items. RELEASED.-Upon rt requisition issued by T. B. Logan, District Judge, for tho transfer of J. S. Beck and J. P.

Dear Mr. Bennett .- I find it difficult to express tow gratefully I appreciate tho kindly feeling rhich dictated your letter of the 31a| ultimo, as roll as tho splendid present which you offer to ruy cceptance, but most of all the dolicaoy with which ou seek to dimmish the personal obligation mi? ler which you would lay me by giving to yourgen roua ?fterem international character. It ;i, in [eed, this Bret consideration only which h a led ne to hesitate in replying to your letter; fe per onally it would have* been impossible for ?ie to ccept so costly a present. But I felt bounr fully o considor tho question in the light in which you rore good enough to place it; aud if on fuU con lideration I feol compelled to declino your goner ma ofter, I trust that neither you, nor your gallant ompetitors, nor your countrymen at largo, will >elievo that the yachtsmen of England loss appro? bate or leus reciprocate the feeling of good-1'e?ow ihip which prompted the offer. The Henrietta is a vessel which any man may bo >roud to possess: and I trust she may long con inue in the hands in which she haa accomplished o triumphant a auccess.

It a one of tho most eloquent and characteristic pro? motions which ever came from thc pen of the llustrious champion of Italian liberty. It ia a scathing denunciation of King Victor Emanuel; a review of tho part which the monarchy performed n the late war, o' tho dutios which it lett un f ul fili? ad, the popular hopes which it thwarted, the hu? miliations which it ignominiously endured, and the :rimes and blunders which it committed at. overy step. That it rejected the assistance of the peo? plo, lest they ahould acquire the consciousness of their own strength; that it purposely rendered the voluntoers aseleas in the campaign, repressed or iiscouraged insurrectionary movements in the Austrian territories, and fell into military mistakes innumerable; that it yielded a shameful eubsorvi ancy to France, and'accepted Italian territory as a disgraceful almo from Napoleon; that it finally rested under a ruinous peace, a peace which carries with it the necessity for another war-these are the chief counts in the indictment which the patri? otic leader, bringa against the King of Italy. RUMPUS m A CHUBCH.-Quite an excitement was sreated among the assembled brothers and sisters of the congregation of Ebenezer Church on Sun? day in consoquonco of an affair which had well nigh proven that women of any completion arc ?augorous individuals to trillo with. A certain brother, of the aforesaid congregation, "ibolin dat it was hia duty to inform bia bi edren and siatrcn of everything whar went wrong about do church," publicly charged a aiBter with hav.ng afolen five dellars from tho church treasury and turned it over to one brother J. Wi Hunnicutt-of whom we have heard as attempting to publish and keep up a printed sheet styled tho New Nation in some corner of tills city. The charge was no sooner out of the zealous brother's mouth than the accused levelled a pistol at his hoad, and denyinsr his in? famous charge, declared her intention of demol? ishing him.

[From thc Lvxiaville Journal, 21?i.] William Brown, who certainly, if any man, de? serves to be ranked as tho successor of the noto? rious John A. Murrell, tho Tennessee land pirate, murderer and desperado, has long ravaged Marion, Taylor and tho surrounding counties. The mur? ders he has committed are innumerable, and the robberies ho has perpetrated cannot be enumerat? ed. He has been the terror of the section in which he lives, and no Scotch cateran over crossed tho Tweed into Northumberland, and "lifted" honest Saxon farmer's cattle, caustd more terror than the cr}' in those sections of our State where Brown operatod, that "Bill Brown is in the neigh? borhood!" Rob Boy McGregor, when he made a raid into tho North o? England, spared men, women and mildren, but made a decided demonstration upon ierds of fat cat?e. "Caterans must be fed," waa [fob Boy's motto. "Neighbors must bo bled," was ;he war-cry of Brown. When he wont to the house )f Mr. Absalom Jones, and borrowed his horse without his leave, Bill quietly choked Mrs. Jones mtil she was insensible, to keep her from raising in outcry, whilo her husband, equally as quietly, md much moro valorously, "made for tall timber." gillian) Whaley objected to Bill "Williams' borrow ng his watch without firBt giving bira a pawn? broker's ticket in return. Billy wa- so in- j sensed at such un unreasonable demand, that ho ;entlv bio wed Mr. Whaley's hoad into infinitesimal quantities. John Roberts' horse next captivated ns fancy, and because John raised objections to a Swap" in which he could see no quid pro qiio, idly politely inserted a Texas bible between his lbs, .and John fell upon the ground a pale, cold, ind bloody corpse. Thomos Jenkins, an adjunct of the freedmen's mrcau, was the next person that fell under the aliaut Billy's supervision. Thomas had a silver totached lever and several portraits of Mr. Chase n his vest pockets. Billy WBB bothered about the imo of day and wanted a time-piece. Ho was fill ug up a photograph album, and Mr. C's photos voulu come just to his hand; and meeting the able Thomas upon the highway, Billy first mado dm "stand and deliver," and then piously cut MB hr oat, acting upon the principle that "dead men ell no tales.' But it would bo useless for us to go on and enu? merate all of our hero's exploits. Suffice it to say, hat he has been guilty of crimes enough to hang ialf a dozen better men than he. We hope that ie will got his shuro of hanging, but that has nothi? ng to do with tho affair of last Friday night. On the night mentioned, James Murphy, a con table, who hold a wan-ant for the arrest of Brown, umraoned Samuoi Bromfield, a son of Jamos bromfield, of Bromfield Station, on the Lebanon branch Extension, to assist him in the arrest. Jrown Uves in a eequestored villago called Lynch? burg, in Marion County. His house is barricaded nd has loopholes cut in its walls ofter the manner f D. Boone's and other pioneer's domiciles. When he officer and his posso approached the house Jrown fired upon them, instantly killing young bromfield and mortally wounding Constable Mur? ty. As Judge Lynch hos been holding regular terms f his court in the bailiwick, we would not be sur rised if in to-morrow's journal wo did not have : be satisfaction to record that Mr. Brown has been ound satisfactorily suspended on a limb. Typographical Errors. Mr. W. L. STOJTE, of New York, lately delivered very interesting and valuable lecture in that city, . ipon the "Early History of Nowspapers in Anie ica." In the course of the locturo occurs the fol jwing : Tho Now York Gazette was commenced by Way- ? a an. In 1776 Wayman was arrested and impris nod for a contempt of the Assembly, upon no ? ther charge than that of two typographical errors i printing tho speech of Sir Henry Moore, tho lovernor of tho Colony. One of those errora con- " isled ?- printing the word never for euer, by reason : if which the meaning of the sentence was revers- j d. Nothing can be moro annoying to authors nd publishers than errora of the Press; and yet hose who are unskilled in the art of printing can carcely conceive the difficulty of avoiding them. ?o arrive at ordinary accuracy in a daily newspa ier requires the reading and correction of at least wo proofs; and even then an editor who has not lecome case-hardened by long endurance, will ?fton bo shocked at the transformation of sense oto nonsense, or the murdering of one of his hap- ; liest concoiti or tho plucking of tho point from no jf his nea. ,t paragraphs, by a typographical rror. In the early stages of tho art of printing, rrore were far more numerous than in books of lodorn execution. It was thon very common for ??Inste of ordinary. Bizi; tu contain page upon I ago of errata at the close. One of tho most ie ?arkable instances of this kind was tho curious ' roatise of Edward Leigh on "Religion and Learn- 1 lg," published in 1656. At the dose of the work ] ero three folio pages of corrections in very ^ linute type, it is a singular fact that tho edition i f tho Laim Vulgate by Pope Sixtus V., although j arefully superintended, sheet by sheet, by His ( [oliness. has ever remained without a rival in ,rpographical inaccuracy. Still more curious was io fact that the Pope, in the plenitude of his ontifical infallibility, prefixed to tho first volume bull of excommunication against any and every 1 rintor who, in reprinting tho work, should over ? take au}' alterations in the text. Among instances j f typographical errors the lecturer gave the fol- < ?wing : A lad in a printing office, who knew more , bout typc-sotting than he did of the Greek my lology, in looking over a poem they were print lg, carno upon tho name of Hecate, one oT the j ?dy divinities of thc lower world, occurring in a 1 no like this: "She shall reign tho Hecate of tho i oopest Hell." Tho boy. thinking he had dia? pered an error, ran to tho master printer, and I iqVircd eagerly whether thoro was E in cat. Why, no, you blockhoad," was tho roply. Away ont the boy to the prous-room and extracted the 1 bjcctional letter. But fancy the horror of both i oot and publisher when the poem appeared with io line-"She shall roign the HE Cat of the dcop ?t Holl." This, howover, was not so bad as tho < nuinor in which the printers treated Miss Landon. ! i speaking of it suo says : And whon I had ' ritten "full blown rosea'' thc nasty tilings mado "full blown nosos." Benjamin Franklin once utting to proas a "form" of tho Common Prayer, * io letter c in tho following passage dropped out npercoivod by him, 'wo shall all be changed in ie twinkling of an eye.' " When tho book app9ar 1, to tho horror of tho devout worshippers, the assago read : "We shall all bo hanged in tho . vinkling ol' an eye." Franklin has boen suspect lof having dono this intentionally, but it an? eara to me without good reason. But, after all, hen it is considered of how many separate and linute pieces of metal a book form or tho pago (if newspaper is composed, tho wonder is that the rrcrs of the Presa aro not far moro numerous ian they are. A ningle pago of ono of our largest apera cannot contain leas than 315,000 separate ieccs of metal, each of which must bo nicely ad isted in its own proper place, or error and confu on will ensue, A MILLION FEESONS STAEVED TO DEATH.-A Cal? atta correspondent of tho London Times, Decem or 7th, gives some painful details of tho recent miine in tho district of Oriasa, in India.

Tho commissioner esti ?atcs tho deaths in Oriasa alono at 500,000 to (?00, 90, and in sorao places ho admits that throe? rarths ol' tho population havo been carried off. irissa had Ave millions. Add tho mortality of lidnapore, which was as Bovoroiy visited; of Gall? un and Chota Nagoro, which were terribly, yet lore mildly dealt with; of Calcutta, whoso hospi ids still toll so sada tale, and of tho other ?i s rict?, where the sequelae, at least, of starvation, arried off many, and remember that the deaths re still going on at the rato ol' a hundred a day, nd you will agree with tho rough estimate genor lly accepted hero, that the number of victims will tot be under a million. DISOEACEFUL AFFAIB.-The Newport Express ?on tains an account of an "unfortunate affair" oc urring at Newport Center, which they charactcr ze, in tho language of Mrs. Partington, aB a new aethod of "dispensing with the Gospel," and that Lifleront parties have attempted of Jato "To provo (hoir doctrine orthodox, By apostolic blows and knocks." The summary of tho transaction is, that Rev. M. hillard, on the afternoon of the 8th inst., stepped ?to the blacksmith shop of ono Call, whose religi IUS views are Umso of tho Adventists, when a con rovorsy arose as to the tims and placo of holding . publi? discussion cn tho subject of their different oligious beliefs, and becoming oxcitod, Bollard oimng up behind Call, seized him, throw him lown, striking his head upon a sled standing in ho shop. BuJlard asked him if ho would stop ?roaching his doctrine, and answering in thc neg ilive, he struck him with hin fist about tho hoad md face. Call crying "murder," and calling for io p. Tho sequel of tho affair is that Ballard was ined SIS and coat, amounting in all to $?4.37, and tn appeal taken. A suit has'been brought for pri .ate damages, and Billiard put under bonds of ?500, to appear tit the County Corni. Billiard has :oniplainctl of Call for disturbing a religious mect ng, and he was bound up iii tho sum of $200. Bill? ard has also brought a snit for private d.imagos, or thc sum of *10UO.

ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT, > YALE COLLEGE, November 16, 1866. ) I have always recommended the Faber Polygrade Lead Pencils as the only pencils fitted for both ornamen? tal and mathematical drawing; but, after a thorough trial of the American Polygrade Lead Pencils, man? ufactured by tlie American Lead Pencil Company, New York, I find them superior to any pencil in use, even to thc Faber or the old English Cumberland Lead Pencil, being a superior pencil for sketching, ornamental and mechanical drawing, and all the ordinary uses of a lead pencil. These pencils are very finely graded and bare a Tory smooth lead; even the softest pencils hold the point well; they arc all that con be desired in a pencil It gives ino great pleasure to be ablo to assure Americans that they will no longer bc compelled to depend upon Germany or any other loreign market for pencils.
