BEBLTN, Fe'uiuary 24.-The Parliament of the North German States formally opened yesterday. The King of Prussia, the members of the royal family and Count BISMARCK, vere present. The King said that he was encircled as no German Prince had been for ages' ; all hopes for the future welfare of the nation now rested on the accom? plished fact of a united Germany. He recommend? ed Parliament to form a new constitutional union which would be defensive in oharacter, and give unity, liberty and power to the fatherland.

The Commercial and Financial Chronicle, of New York, the highest authority on the subject, says, in its issue of last Saturday : Complaints aro universal of the Stagnation and the unprofitableness of business. A spring season so depressed and generally unsatisfactory as the present is hardly within the memory of our city merchants. Tho trade of the interior is generally reported du.1! and unpromising. Although the South has realized upon a large portion of its cot? ton crop, it is found devoid of trading Bpirit, and even unable to liquidate much of its indebtedness on account of last year's purchases. In the West? ern States merchants complain of unusual difficul? ty in making their collections, and have on hand a heavy balance of fall stock; tua result being that their obligations to the Atlantic citieSj in many cases, have to be renewed for thirty to sixty days. The New England cotton mills find the demand for goods so limited, compared with their produc? tion, that at the beginning of this month some of the manufacturers made a still further curtail? ment of their time of running. The woollen trade, now one of our most exteuH.;ve industries, although it recently diminished m aggregate production probably quite 20 per cent., finds little relief from the reduced supply of goods, and manufacturers have to sell a large amount of their products at a discount from cost. Ia the leather and iron trades similar complaints prevail; .and, indeed, it would be difficult to find an important exception to the common stagnation. The Chronicle considers at length tho causes producing this general and almost unprecedented disturbance and depression of business, and finds its principal source in the unstatesmanlike and un? patriotic oourse of Congress. The conclusion is undoubtedly correct; and we are amazed that the powerful commercial classes of the North are so slow in perceiving the fatal consequences to them? selves of the present political discontents and un? certainties-and applying the proper remedy. Well may the Chronicle sar, "The present demoralized condition of the trade of the whole country appeals loudly to Congress for moderation and dispatch in the settlement of these momentous measures." We may add that it appeals as loudly to the busi? ness classes of the No?fch to take such steps as will overawe Congress into something like common sense. Dan Rice on the Situation. DAN RICE, the celebrated, showman, having re? cently made a #ur of the Southern States, gives his opinions of -some things he saw, in a letter to the Washington MepvUican, thusly: The Freedmen's Bureau in South Carolina, un? der General Scott, is in good working order. The only trouble experienced arises where ill-disposed officers have crept into positions, and whero specu? lators and claim agents of the old bounty-swindling order have tampered with the freedmen. There is a set of traders in some districts who swindle the ?poor negroes shamefully by Belling them bogus jewelry and gewgaws at most exorbi? tant prices. In some instances these porsons write for the Northern papers, and as it is for their inter? est to have the South dominated by a military force, they will, of course, paint horrible pic Lures of the subdued rebels. In one instance that came to my knowledge, a trader had sold a breastpin to a negro for $5 which was made in Waterbury, Con? necticut, for sixteen cents, and this man was the Torrespondont of the Chicago Tribune, a leading Radical paper in the North. I am thoroughly con? vinced that Congress, while prompted to many acts by an honest indignation, is terribly misled by statements of interested parties. The constant complaint of the Southern people is, that they are smelly misrepresented; that while in their ruin md desolation they earnestly desire the rea tora ion of-friendly relations with the Government, hey. are accused most unjustly of numberless out? ages and wrongs. MODERN REETBUGANisar.-A firm in Nashville, me of the largest and most respectable mercantile louses in the West, paying annually many thou land dollars of taxes, has, including clerks, six arsons employed in the concern, besides tho por ier, who is a negro. The latter now ia tho only me of the whole concern who is allowed to vote inder the present Brownlow Constitution. The X)int Of the joke ?B that the -negiv "VTno tko biitor ist rebel of all, and was an officer's servant in the ate rebel army, and, when fighting by his master's ide, he was che third man over the ramparts of ..'ort Pillow, where he fell like, an avenging thun lerbolt upon the negroes, who so gallantly sur on dared that stronghold. The above, which we take from tho New York Times, furnishes an illustration of tho recent Act if the Tennessee Legislature on the subject of rancmse. 'fi THE WESTERN WHEAT CBOP.-A. writer in tho lt. Louis Democrat makes some observations on he coming wheat crop of St. Louis county, rhich, as the weather has been similar, will pro? bably apply throughout the West. He says : Wheat was sown throughout the country to a uger extent than iu any previous year. In the i oiet and warm ground it germinated and sprout d within four or five days, and continued grow ig until the frosts of the latter part of November, 'hen it showed a robust stand, such as has not een seen for many a fall. The thick coat of snow also grumbled at as a matter of o m rae) now oov ring che ground, is another blessing. That snow belters our wheat as under a universal hot-house, nd a good one, too, keeping the plant alive, but ot allowing its growth, which is its beat possible audition. State Items.

Jus? tice Inglis, has declined to accept the Professor? ship tendered him by the Board of Trustees of the University. Upon an examination of the question, he has concluded that there is a constitutional obstacle in the way of holding a Professorship and a Judgeship. We deeply regret "chis decision. The r?putation of Judge Inglis as a jurist would have very soon established a high reputation for the Daw School of the South Carolina University. We learn that Dr. Chisolm has also declined the Professorship of the School of Medicine, ten? dered io him by the Board of Trustees at tho same tiine.-Carolinian. DEPARTO BE.-His Excellency, Governor Orr, left Columbia yesterday morning for Anderson, where he may be addressed until further notice.- Ibid. The Alexandria (Va.) Gazette says : Some driblets of " conscience money"-the re? sults of the " pickings and stealings" of the last four or five years-continue to drop into the Uni? ted States Treasury. Greenbacks, ai yet, are the only returns, no pictures, furniture, books, jewel? ry, pianos, ?ic. " Conscience" appears not yet to have reached these articles. When it does, there ought to be a large hall in the Treasury Department appropriated for the " exhibition"-and when tho stream of these "spoils," now in the hands of pri? vate individuals, onco begins, it ought to como with " a perfect rush." FROM WASHINGTON, [Special Correspondence of ike Baltimore Gazette.] WASHINGTON, February 21-Last night Congress consummated their miscalled "reconstruction'' scheme, the features of which you have already given to the publm. Its very title is a misnomer. It should have been called an act to destroy rather ?han to rebuild. Its effect must be to separate not unite. ?s the vulgar but expressive adage goes, "it is hard to extract blood from a turnip." But as infamous as the SHEEHAN proposition, with the House amendments, is, I find some crumbs of comfort in tho measure and its surroundings as it passed, not the least, perhaps, of which is that its authors have overleaped themselves and may fall on the other side. In the first place, if the Southern people shall choose to accept the alternative of abiding under military rule untd a change of public sentiment shall have boen developed at the North, the whole scheme falls to the ground-a monstrous abortion! Secondly, the Senate, by its unanimous Radical vote on the Sherman propositi on as it originally passed that body, solemnly declared in favor cf the enfranchisement of every man implicated in the civil war on the Southern side, thus endorsing the manly course adopted by your Legislature, and ?ointedly condemning that shamelessly pursued y Tennessee and Missouri. Thirdly, the diaboli? cal slanders and falsehoods for the past two years heaped upon the South must now cease, since such blows will otherwise fall upon the heads of Grant and his subordinates, who will hereafter be respon? sible for the "disorders," the "outrages," the "wholesale murders" lyingly alleged to exist and to be committed there, and not on the heads of in? nocent people of that section. Besides, the South has been accustomed to martial law-indeed tile people there got along for some time very well vrithout any government at all except that of the law, without any one to execute it, and a more orderly and law-abiding people even then never lived on the face of the earth. You will see that the Bill, with the amendmenis, finally passed by a strict party vote in both Houses, with a single exception. Very early this week I received an inkling of a probable wav?rinjr in that quarter, and referred to the matter in my letter published on Wednesday. Mr. Johnson cer? tainly had the right to decide for himself what course he should adopt in respect to this or any other political question, always being responsible, however, to the judgment of his constituents. But when he sees proper formally to assign the rea? sons which actuate him, he certainly opens the door to criticism upon them. Now, the reasons he gave for the vote in question are thought here, on all all sides, to be utterly unworthy of his great reputa? tion as a special pleader, to say nothing of their in? sufficiency to justify his conduct "I shall give it my vote," said he, "not because I approve of it m the ab? stract or in the particular, but because I think I see in it a mode of rescuing the country from the perilous predicament in which it is now placed." How the country is to be rescued from its perilous {medicament by visiting upon States already in he Union the iniquity proposed, he does not pre? tend to enlighten us. But even if he imagined, with or without lust cause, that it would have such a tendency, did that justify a patent viola? tion of the Constitution (declared BO to be by Mr. Johnson a hundred times), and inflicting upon a whole people a monstrous wrong, acknowledged so to be in the very speech he was making? "Iii had my own way," continues the Senator, " I would at once receive ?them (Southern repre? sentatives) in (his chamber, with a heart full of conviction that they would be true to their duty to the country, and that they would promote its permanent interest. But I have not my way. am obliged, therefore, to acquiesce in the decision of tho majority of Congress, however erroneous or unjust I may believe that decision to be. provided I believe that it will end in a comparatively short time in restoring the Southern States to the broth? erhood of States." This, it must be confessed, is carrying the maxim that "the end Justifies the means" to its extreme limit.. But surely, if he felt ?'obliged to acquiesce in the decision of the major? ity," there was no necessity at all for his voting with them, since his vote was of no importance whatever either one way-or the ?otb er. Ti, on the contrary, bis vote- had been decisive, imme? diately or prospectively, or could have had any conceivable weight in passing tho bill and in thus, as he says ho believes, relieving Che country from its < " perilous predica? ment," his speech might be accepted as a plausi? ble pretext for his vote (laying aside its morality). Nothing of this, however, is possible ; and we must conclude, therefore, that other and very dif? ferent reasons than those assigned influenced this (ixtraordinary action on the Senator's part, and that its effect was designed to be felt in some assem? bly other than that of Congress. In briof terms, Mr. Johnson's vote, as snob, was a mere null ty, and obviously designed more as the utter? ance of individual sentiment. , designed to yporato ouiaidc of ; thc uiattor in ??i?ia, LU il II' ns becoming or excusable on the occasion upon which it was cast. The doctrine that it is obligatory upon a legislator to vote with the ma j ority, on whatever ground, is convenient enough for such as desire to he always on the winning aide. But it must be seen that it would not do to push it to its logical cons?quences, since it must nevitably annihilate minorities altogether. On the whole, it would seem that the only intelligible ?round advanced by Mr. -Johnson for his vote for the bill was his inveterate and newly affirmed op? position to its provisions, genera! and particular, [rom the enacting clause to the last line ot the last section. Secretary McCullooh will shortly isBue a ciroular notifying the public that the department is now rcady to receive and convert into five-twenty bonds ho 'seven-thirty bonds, issued under the Act of Vugust, 1364, and due next August, and also pay he interest due thereon. Th's is done in order hat the bonds may be received and converted lady, and not all he presented at tho same time vhen due. The Tariff Bill cannot be taken up in the House intil the Tax Bill is disposed of, and it is extreme y doubtful if definite action can be had on it this session. Georgia Items.

There is no longer a hope the affaire of this estab ishment are in a solvent condition. The mystery ittached to the conduct of Mr. Valentine WildmaD; the junior member, can be explained in no way ?ave that he decamped from New York with all the ?funds of the bank within his reach. His mode of operation, so far as ascertained, was to draw from the banking houses of New York city all the moneys that remained in them to the credit Of Brown & Wildman. This he had tho ability to do reftl?y in view of his presence there as a partner in the in? terests of his house, and possessing tho entire confidence of Mr. P. Brown, the senior partner in this city. How far his operations extend, it ie impossible now to determine, or if they go be? yond tho ruin of his own banking-house, and the loss thereby entailed upon.-its depositors^ The confidence of parties in New York may have been abused, though it is yet to transpire if such is tho case. A dispatch from that city states that Mr: Wildman left' on the 12th instant for Atlanta via Charleston and Augusta. A dispatch from this city to Charleston, asking for information in regard to him, is answered that no one in that city has any knowledge of his presence there. The presump? tion, therefore, is that he has fled the country, and in doing so gave false information to the party in Now York, who telegraphed that he had left for home.-Atlanta lrUeUigeiicer. ALMOST A MURDEB.-Yesterday afternoon several colored persons entered into tho store of one of our merchants, and in au altercation with the por? ter of the establishment got into a melee. After boating the porter, they seized the proprietor, who had gone to the rescue of his employ?e,1 and dragged him out of his store into the street. The porter possessed himself of a pistol and dis? charged it at tho assailants, one shot of which took effect in tho abdomen of one of the party, who, with the parter, was conveyed to the bar Yafks. Tho wound received is not considered fatal, but the party injured has been sent to the hospital. . [Savannali Republican. SUDDEN DEATH.-Mr. J. J.

A DESPEBADO KILLED.-A negro desperado named Jerry Hamilton, who, for several months, has defied the wholo police department, was ?lied on Thursday last, at his- rendezvous in some negro shanties near the rolling mill on Marietta street. Within tho past few months several efforts have been made to arrest Jerry, but he was shrewd enough to escape in every ?nstanos. We learn that not less than twenty Bhots have been fired at liim at different times. He is represented as hav? ing been a man of desperate determination, and for a long time has bee., prowling uround the city perpetrating acts of viii amy by the wholesale. At ono time he attempted to kill his wife.

A gentleman recently returned to the Lone Star Statt from the East, says all along the route, from Alex? andria, Virginia, to Galveston^ the - cry was " Tex? as, Ho 1" among the passengers. Some were bound for Eastern Texas, torthb purpose of cultivating sugar and cotton; dome for Northern Texas, for the purpose of cultivating, the cereal grains; and some for Southwestern Texas, for the purpose oi engaging in pastoral pursuits, such as raising herses, cattle and sheep. . . FOBGEBT.-Two rather bold and successful forge? ries were perpetrated on the First National Bank, of this city, on Tuesday and Wednesday last, by a young man who called himself Shiers. -? , From the facts as related to us yesterday, we learn that Shiers came to this city, a few weeks ago. from Charleston, 8. C., and has since his arrival stopped at a private boarding-house on Front street. While there ha formed] the acquaintance af a gontleman from Favet?^,~s^^^-i?^1"^ Miiuv, mia, xie aBcerujn^a, had deposited funds in tho National Bank at this place. On Tuesday last Shiers entered the store of a merchant on Front street, and expressing fatigue, requested that a boy in the store might take a check to the Bank to be cashed. His request was complied with, and a check for $50, signed by J. W. Lanca? shire, was given by him to the boy. who presented it at the Bank; where it was paid, unquestioned, ind the money handed over to Shiers. On the next day he attempted to play the same game, but the -Cashier of the Bank retained the check, md required to see Mr. Lancashire. Word was sent that he would call, by. Shiers, but the latter left immediately, and the search instituted by the r?lcers of the Bank was without result. A de? scription of his person, with' a request to arrest aim, was telegraphed to Goldsboro, and other points, and on yesterday a reply was sent by the Mayer of Goldsboro that ne had been arrested. A warrant was issued, and an officer, sent down to bring'him np, and he reached here.pr?bably this morning.-ifamtnaton'JHspa??h.:. i THE "INDIANS NOT TAXED."-It seems strange to ns, when we have reached that degree of mviUza cion that we can teach all mankind what to do, that this should be so; but the New Englanders who go the West very shortly take as much pleas? ure in shooting Indians,-as in former days thoy lid in holding slaves at the South. In this they show hat they are like their fathers. Li Massa? chusetts in 1694 the colony paid fifty pounds for avery Indian, great or small, that any person should kill. This waa the uniform policy. In 1697 fifty pounds were to be paid for the scalps of adult Indians, and "for every child bf the said enemy, under tho age of ten years, that shall be by them slain, the sum of ten pounds: and such party or partios shall also have and keep unto their own ase all plunder and prisoners by them taken of the enemy. Tn the later laws, liberal premiums continued to be offered for the scalps of male Indians above the ?-~e of twelve years, as well as "the benefit of all Indian prisoners, being women and children under the age above said," subject only to the condition that they should be "transported out of the coun? try,'' This reads queerly to us; but we must remember that New England then engaged largely in steal? ing negroes in Africa to reduce them to slavery, and deemed it a virtue to shoot Indians wherever they could and them. Since these were the prac? tices of our Christian fathers, whose memory we venerate, we might be a little more charitable in our judgment upon others. . [Newburyport (Mass.) Herald. . ?

THE project of a Boyal visit to Ireland in the course of this year, ,is still under consideration. The Prince of Wales is, it is well known, anxious to have an Irish residence, and to spend at ?east as much of the year there as the Court ordinarily does at Balmoral or Osborne ; and the Princess, who has as yet seen only England and Scotland, is, it is whispered, almost inordinately anxious to see the third of her luture kingdoms, and imagines it must be rather like Denmark in its general aspect, which, I daresay, about-the Giant's Causeway it somewhat is. The interesting condition of her Royal Highness' health at present, forbids, of . course, any immediate consideration* of the pro? ject. Then lhere come the Court duties of the season; the State visit of the Paris Exhibition, the State visit of the Czarowitch and his bride to Eng? land; but it is expected, and strongly hoped by the Government, that the Court of the prince will be established in Ireland for some months of the au tumn.-Halifax Express. THE TBADE IN WOBKS OP 'ABT TN ROME.-The Giornale di Boma has the following: " It is calcu? lated that the value of the modern and antique paintingB and sculptures which last year were sent airoad was equal to 2,523,549f. This amount has been left in Rome by foreigners, not alone among artists, but generally in the hands ol' the popula? tion. Nor does it include the twenty per cent, paid > the treasury on the sale of antiques, which are uj ways estimated below their real value. Last year exceeded the preceding in this traffic, as it pro? duced 548,110f. more." Mr. Dickens gets?70 (about $350 in gold) anight for reading his last Christmas story, lt is worth ail that to read some parts of it, and he works cheap at that price. Mr. Dickons' resorts to ob? tain money, now that his children aro settled, are sometimes spoken of as degrading to a writer of his rank; but as respects his readings, it is not ava? rice but vanity that prompts them. He is a fine reader andan excellent actor, and it is very pleas? ant to him to hear the applause that follows from his reading in character. Those who censure him would do as he does-if they could. _ [Boston Traveller.
