Gold closed 40?.
f>*?^Ootton closed in Liverpool yesterday at 10?d. for
Middling Uplands.
Fern is in a very unsullied condition. Bobbers
infest the country, and the road from Callao to
Lima, is again in possession of bandits, rendering
it unsafe to travel even that short distanco.
It was reported in Paris that boforo he onterod
j Quere taro, MAXQOLXAN shipped for Europe a his?
tory of the French expedition to Mexico, written
bj his own hand, and (hat tho manuscript is in tho
possession of Due D'Ar JULE for publication ia the
French capital.
The Paris Tract Society has scattered 400,000
tracts during the last year, be idos a Christian al?
manac of great value, called almanack des bonis
conseils, printed at 200,000 copies. It publishes,
also, a monthly magazine called L'ami de la Jeun?
esse Families, at t:ie low price ol eighty cents.
The "cities" of the frontier may bo enterprising,
bat they are hardly substantial. " A recent account
of affaira in Western Kansas says: "Ellsworth is
slowly recovering from the effects of tho late flood.
Thu city is being removed to higher ground, np
the Smoky Hfll, about a mile from its present site.
AH the buildings are being removed.
The grain elevator st Milwaukee (the largest in
?he world? being-280feet long. 80 wide and 130 high
and weighing 10,000 tons), is to be raised four feet.
Four hundred holes have been cut through its
foundation for the insertion of timbers, and under
these- 1G00 screws will be placed for lifting the
? immense structure.
The Selma Times learns from a gentleman who
has recently travelled over the greater part of
Middle Alabama, that the corn crop ia magnifi?
cent. Tho-' entire country looks.like a land of
promise. There is no doubt that the corn crop
this year will bo one of the finest ever raised in
Alabama.
The Marion (Florida) Courier says the crop
prospect in this (Jackson) County is much better
' than it was last year at this time. Cotton is of
gped size and vigorous. Corn is growing finely,
and the season is too far advanced for any casualty
. to prevent a full crop being made. Cane and
other food crops- are doing well.
. An exchange says : "Babies resemble wheat in
many respects. Firstly-Neither are good for
much until they arrive at maturity. Secondly
Both are bred in the house, and are also the flower
of the family. Thirdly-Both have to be cradled.
Fourthly-Both are generally well thrashed before
they are done with."
There'are not many very old people in the
United States, According to the last census, 1200
persons wcro living who had attained the age of
100 y?ars. Of these were-white, 440; black, 688;
mulatto, 46; Indians, 26. Women attained high
longevity in greater numbers than men, and black
people more than white. There were-white males,
181; females, 250; black males, 265; females, 293.
A negro soldier, a private in one of the West
India regiments, which are composed entirely of
blacks, officered by whites, has just received the
'.Victoria Cr088" for bravery in the field. This is
the first instance in which such a distinction bas
been conferred on a colored soldier in tho British
service. The pr?sentation of the "Cross," wbioh
took place at Balizo, was attended with a good
deal of ceremony, the Governor of the Colony of
British Honderas taking part in the proceedings.
The Gormans of this city, says the Chicago
Tribune of the 25th, will hold a grand festival on
Friday evening in Turner Hall in honor of the
celebrated, poet, FERDINAND FBEIUOHATII, well
known to many Americans as a translator of
LONGFELLOW'S Hiawatha and other works. For
twenty years past he has been a resident of Lon
'don, exiled from Prussia on aooount of his liberal
principles, and is now in very straightened cir?
cumstances. The leading German societies will
appear in his honor and a fine time may be ex
- peeted.
The artesian wells in Algeria, long attempted
without success, now number probably about one
hundred, delivering five or six million litres of
water per hov, and converting deserts into gar?
dens where ver they have been bored. The work
fe going on, defrayed by tax upon the benefitted
population, and is destined to reclaim incalculable
wastes. In a single district-that of Outed Bir
strotching fer South into the desert, and now con?
taining thirty-five wells, 2000 new gardens have
been formed, and 150,000 date trees planted. Four
military boring brigades, well provided with imple?
ments, and with growing skill and experience, are
steadily pushing on the conquest of the desert, and
. with almost unerring success in every attempt.
Says a San Francisco correspondent : Formerly
the smallest coin in use was, in native phraseol?
ogy, a two-bit piece-25 cents. Of late years
the public mind has accommodated itself to the
sse of dimes, but the man who should endeavor to
make a purchase with a smaller coin would have
-ike article presented to him, and be immediately
asked, ?'Just from the States, aren't you?" At a
fruit stand recently I met a new-comer trying to
induce the proprietor to part with one orange for
filthy lucre. "No, no-keep your money," was the
persistent reply ; "wo never sell an orange. Til
give you one-pick it ont." Amazed at such an
element in trade, the stranger, finding the man in
r earnest, felt bound to purchase enough to pay for
in the edin of the country.
The Pall Mall 67 au tte dos cribes the new inven?
tion of making furnaces consume their own smoke
aa follows : "The mouths of the short chimneys or
cupolas of the blast furnaces are closed, and the
smoke sod gas are carried down and brought
round by means of iron pipes to the fireplace of
the engin 3 which keeps np the blast These pipes
discharge Just in front of a small bright coke fire,
in passing over wbioh their contents get kindled,
and so feed the engine. Thus the saving in fuel is
immense, the fire in the smelting furnace being
made to do ahnest double duty, and the consump?
tion of smoke is a gain to all concerned. Proba?
bly the plan admits of extension, BO that by-and
hy acts fer forcing manufacturers to consume their
own smoke may not be quite such a dead letter ae
they have hitherto been."
The following official information has been re
ceived at the Greek Legation : According to the
latest official accounts from Crete, OMAR PASHA.
has been repulsed with severe losses from tho
mountain region of Sphokia, and returned again
to the Fortress Herodeen, burning fifteen villages
on his retreat, and dooming all the Greeks who
fell into his power to death by crucifixion. The
foreign Powers have rejected the Sultan's proposi?
tion of a Cretan committee of inquiry to consist of
Turk's alone, they insisting upon a mixed Christian
and Turkish commission. The Turks will not con
sent to this until after the departure of the Greek
volunteers from Crete, while the Cretans decline
to accede until after the departure of tho Turkish
and Egyptian troops. The famous Grecian block
ade runner Ai cadi has mode, in tho meantime, its
fifteenth expedition to Crete, landing munitions
and provisions, and enabling a large number of
Greek women and children to escape from the
Sultan's cruelties.
A Western Radical fanatic, writing to the Chi?
cago Tribune, is for bringing down the vials of Al?
mighty wrath on the Mormons. He wants Con
gross to pass a law to make polygamy "high
treason." Why not make it burglary? However,
we will let him speak for himself: "Polyg?
amy is a recognized system of fornication
which the Bible and Christianity condemns, and if
those Senators at Washington, instead of wasting
their time in denouncing the despots of Europe
and eulogizing the Mexican people, would only
look to their own country, they would find a des
potisBi more damnable than any across the water,
Cannot a law be passed making polygamy high
treason, aid authorizing the arrest of the criminal,
in any part of the United States ?-no matter where
the crime is committed, so it is done within the
territory of the Union. Pass such a law, and lot it
he proclaimed fer and near, and I venture to pre?
dict that no one will dare to commit polygamy ere
the centenary of our National Independence will
have passed away.
A Mcnrr CABLE dispatch informs us that im?
prisonment for debt had at last been abolished in
France. The French law, in this particular, is now
subf tantially the same as that of England and of 11
the United States. This is a hopeful Bigo of the
rational and humane legislation which has begun 11
and is destined to prevail more and more. The old 11
law regarding the debtor was barbarous in the ex?
treme.' Ti was found, at an early period, to be in?
compatible with the liberal and progr?s sive spirit I i
of this country, and soon came to an end. It has 11
long since been abolished in England. Its evil
was seen and denounced by the first French revo
lutionisis. Like many other hopoful signs of that
period, it disappeared in a deluge of blood. France,
which at one time in genuine reforms promised to
achieve so much, has in reality lagged far behind.
Better late than never. By abolishing this old
and barbaron? law Franco has put herself abreast
of the mast advanced commercial nations of the
day. Our American philosophers, in contemplat?
ing a trip to Paris, will have no occasion hence?
forth to dread the cells of Clichy. ll
CURRENT TOPICS.
THE Journal of Commerce indulges in tho fol?
lowing jeu (Tcspnl, iu rolatioii tc tho alleged plot
to blow up Congress : "A man bas been arrested in
Washington for saying that 'if he could trot several
barrels of gunpowder, he would place them under
thc Capitol and blow it up, with all the members of
Congress in it.' After a hearing beforo a Justieo of
tho Peace, ho was bailed ont for $300, to appear
when wanted, and to behave well for thc period of
six months. Tho testimony showed that ho had
6orvod in the United States navy and 'is regarded
as a quiet and peaceable citizen by bis neighbors.'
Here is a case for a apeciil Committoo ; and, if
Congress bad not adjourned beforo thc arrest was
made, wo suppose that ono would havo been ap?
pointed, with power to tunmon witnesses, and all
the other magnificent apparatus of coremony
which attaches to such committees. There is no
tolling how many persons might bo implicated in
the bloodthirsty dosign of this 'quiet and peaceable
citizen." Somo connection might be established
between him and "many officials high in public
life"-certainly as closo a connection as the special
committee on the LINCOLN assassination have suc?
ceeded in making out. The South could oa^ily bo
dragged in as partner in the intended crime. It is
a good thing for Ihe country that Congress had
adjourned; otherwise we might have had them sit?
ting the whole Bummer, frightened but apparently
heroic, ready to be blown up, without a moment's
notice, by "several (or moro) barrels of gunpow?
der," prepared to offer themselves up as a gigantic
holocaust upon tho altar of their country I They
would have remained in session just to let the peo?
ple know that they were not to bo scared off by
Guy Fames, and also to improve tho occasion to
administer a few more turns to that Radical screw.
We feel muoh indebted to SORRELL (such is tho
name of the great suspected) that he did not ex?
press his insane desire for "several larrels of gun?
powder" for the purpose named at an earlier day.
THE NEW YOEE Sun has an editorial headed
"Turning over a now Leaf," saying that although
two y ears have passed einco the war ceased, no
perceptible progress baa been made in the reor?
ganization of the Southern States. It says this is
owing to tho fact that the North and the South
have persistently refused to pull together. It auks
"Will the aspect of the case bo any more an en?
couraging one, two or ten years hence, under
such circumstances ?" adding, "Time enough has
been wasted, and this foolish quarrel should bo
continued no longer." The Sun continues : "Ulti?
mately the North and the South must join hands,
and march forward together, keeping step to the
music of the Union. They cannot permanently
be estranged, as they now are. Tho Siamese twins
aie not so closely bound together in the flesh SB
the North and South aro in material interests.
Then, why not cease this hurtful wrangle on both
sides, and come together at unce, as good judg?
ment and common sense demand. Both sides are
to blame for the present political entanglement.
The South is the moro blameable, because it was
the rash act of that section which brought all tho
present trouble upon the country; but tho North
1 is blameable, also, for tho intemperate and exas?
perating manner in which the extremists act upon
tho question of reconstruction. Whatever tho de?
gree of culpabilitymay be, however, it must bo ad?
mitted that it would be better for both sides, and
the countiy generally, if animosity wore now
dropped, and its place supplied by that excellent
Christian WI?.T?TM-Charity toward all; malice to?
ward none. We have had enough of tho past, let
it now be forgotten. It can do no good to gaze i
upon or brood over it, and the best policy is to
draw a veil over its dark scenes, turn away, and j
henceforth look only to the bright and happy fu- J
ture."
TEE PBOVIDENCE JOUBNAL, published under tho
very shadow of Brown University, speaks against
the conferring of degrees by colleges. It says
"Some colleges, no doubt, are more careful than
others, but all alike seem to have combined
in pursuing a course that ronJors these. de?
grees as nearly worthless as possible. Tho
Boards that confer them aro seldom capable of j
judging of the merits they profess to recognize,
and they usually distribute them according to
some personal favoritism or expectation of advan?
tage, either to themselves or to tho college they
represent. The idea of simply bestowing a meri?
ted honor on a worthy man in any professional or
literary walk in life very seldom enters the minds
ot these dispensers of distinction. They some?
times Beek to appease a hungry applicant, some?
times to satisfy a friend, and sometimes to secure
a benefit, and thoy really do almost anything else
than encourago literary or professional merit; or
honor intellectual labor or services for mankind.
Yale College, some years ago. ceased to confer
the honorary degree of D. D., and somo other
colleges have dispensed with all honorary degrees,
and confer only those which are the result of tho
regular examinations. We are only surprised that
in the present condition of society the President of
a respectable college can have the face to announce
such unmeaning and ill-considered appendages in
connection with any honest name among his fel?
low-men.
MB. C. PIAZZI Sw nu's new woik in three vol?
umes, containing ut account of his operations in
Egypt during the first four months of 18GT?, just
published, has again directed attention to the
pyramids. HERODOTUS, STEAHO, PUNT and the
Arabian writers all concurred in tho statement
that the Great Pyramid was originally covered
with a white casing. For many years this state?
ment was not behoved, because no traces could be
found. However, in 1837, Colonol VISE found two
casing atones in situ. They were of white lime?
stone from the Mokattam hills. As early as the
year 1000 the Kalifs of Egypt began to strip off |
this casing. The blocks, measuring eight feet by
five, were used in building palacoB, mosques and
bridges. Those which remained were near the
foundation and covered with sand at the timo of i
the devastation alluded to. They were cut so
true that a cement no thicker than ordinary paper
was required to join them. The true anglo of tho
pyramid's shape wes determined by means of the
remaining casing; as measured by Professor
SXTTH it is 51 degrees 51 minutes 113. The bose
of the pyramid is a square, each sido being 764
feet, and the original height of the pyramid was
486 feet. Mr. JOHN TAYLOR was thc first to dis?
cover that the height bore tho same relation to the
sum of two sides of the baso as the diameter to
the circumference of a circle.
Now THAT OUB specio circulation is based so
largely upon nickel, it may bo interesting to tho
reader to know something of the locality and
character of tho minos whence this mineral ?Btaken.
The few facta about to bo quoted with reference to
them are taken from a Pennsylvania newspaper
published in tho vicinity of tho minos, tho largest
of which aro situated in that State. "Fourteen
miles from Lancaster, 'says tho journal in ques?
tion, "are the Gap mines and smelting works.
I?ese mines wero discovered many yoara ago, and
about the time of tho Revolutionary war wero
worked for copper, hut wore soon abandoned, tho
crude machinery of that period being ill-adapted
to working them profitably. Two generations had
passed away, and tho circumstances had been
forgotten, when about fifteen years ago tho minos
were reopened by a company of capitalists from
Philadelphia, since which they have been steadily
worked. They were reopened with tho view of
obtaining copper, but tho oro was soon discovered
to bo richer in nickel, a more valuablo mineral,
ind since then they havo been worked for that
metal exclusively. In all about ono hundred and
fifty men are employed at the mines and smoltiug
works." The nickol produced by thcao ininca is
nearly all used by the Government in thc coinage
of its email pieces, in all of which, from one penny
up to the five cent piece, a largo admixture of this
metal is used.
ALL THE SCHOOL B0T8 havo spoken tho spoech of
Loo AN-that noble Indian whoso native eloquence
challenged the eympathetic admiration of civilized
people. Wo have a white LOGAN now, a mombcr
of Congress, whose eloquence charms that body
alone. The Indian demanded to know when a pale?
face in need had been turned away from his door.
Ihe white LOGAN boasts of his prowess as a human
butcher, and told the Democrats of tho House of |
Representatives that ho had "put moro of their
[rienda to tho sword than almost any other man of
ais ago in the armyl" Thc barbarian was applaud
3d. Thoa we see the old Indian, solitary and sad
lened, rehearsing the truly Christian deeds ho was
not unwilling to havo remembered of him by pos?
terity; while thc young whito savage exults, in a
strain that shocks ono moro than a war-whoop,
aver tho numbera of his brethren, whom ho docs
not even stylo enomics, that ho has "put to tho
sword." The descendante ol tho Indian aro hunted
iown by tho United States troops, and a price ?et
upon their scalps and cars, tho whito savage is
applauded for the atrocity of his acntimcuts by
men who would have all things reel in the dizzy
lance of red revolution. Were tho Indian LOOAN
living, he would refuse to own his very name. Ho
ifould know, Indian though bc was, that it had
jecomo a reproach to civilization.

JOB WORK.-We have now completed our
office so as to execute, in the shortest possible
time, ALL KINDS OF JOB WORK, and we
most respectfully ask the patronage of our
friends.
THE PRESIDENT AND THE COUNTRY.
The long-drawn battle between thc Presi?
dent and Congress may now fairly be consid?
ered closed. First, he endeavored by the ex?
ercise of his Executive power to restore the
Southern Slates by a plan of reconstruction,
which, although not free from difficulty and
objection, was yet in a great degree both just
.and generous. This was defeated by Congress,
who inaugurated, after two years of contro?
versy, their own plan, which was neither just
nor generous. This plan the President op?
posed by his veto. That was overruled. Then
thc President undertook to modify its execu?
tion by his method of construction and admin?
istration. Congress immediately met, and by
a new law made their construction explicit, and
took the administration of thc law out of his
hands. And in his last veto, which has been
overruled Uko all the others, he concludes the
struggle with this emphatic language:
The remedy must come from tho pooplo them?
selves. They know what it is, auu how it is to bo
applied. At the present time they cannot, accord?
ing to the Constitution, repeal theso laws; they
cannot remove or control this despotism. Tho
remedy, nevertheless, is in their hands; it is to bo
found in tho ballot, and ?B a suro ono, if not con?
trolled by fraud, overawed by arbitrary power, or
from apathy on their part too long delayed. With
abiding cofideuoo in their patriotism, wisdom and
integrity, I am still hopeful of tho future, and that
in the end the rod of despotism will be broken,
the aimed ni e of power be lilted from tho necks
of the pooplo, and the principles of a violated Con?
stitution preserved.
Nothing can be clearer; the surrender of
Gen. LEE was not more complete than this
abdication of Executive power. Like tho
South, the President submits to his conqueror,
and waits for the returning sense of justice of
the "people'"-meaning thereby the Northern
people-to terminate "the despotism" which
tyrannizes over him as well as us. And how,
indeed, could it be otherwise?
From the day when he (JOHNSON) became
President, his position grew more and more
embarrassing. It is true that he was one of
tho few Southern men of note who had un?
flinchingly stood by the Union as against his
section, that psrhap? of all men of equal
prominence he was roost obnoxious to the
leaders of the secession movement, ??one who
witnessed will ever forget the scene in the Sen
ate in the winter of 18t?0, when, standing on
the Democratic side of the chamber, he spoke
his mind with a sullen and dogged courage for
two days, surrounded by DAVIS and MASON,
HUNTER and SLIOELL, BENJAMIN and YI LEE
the ineffable scorn with which they looked upon
him-the muttered denunciation which accom?
panied and sometimes interrupted his speech.
But in spite of all that, Mr. JOHNSON was a
Southern man and a State Rights Democrat,
and ho came into power as the leader of a
party determined to crush the South forever
and trample upon the Constitution if it stood
in their way. This party, whose leaders com?
bined the relentless perseverance of fanaticism
and the shrewd judgment of selfish ambition,
Mr. JOHNSON undertook to arrest in their mo?
ment of unhoped-for and unexampled victory.
This might have been done by Mr. LINCOLN,
whose immense popularity with the masses of
the Northern people, and whose identification
with the cause of the Union, from the com?
mencement of the civil war to its close, gave
him an individual power which might safely
have defied the Radical rhetoric of SUMNEB
and STEVENS. It might have been accomplished
by a great military chieftain, who, with the
army at his back, had the courage and the am
bition to use it. But what element of strength
had Mr. JOHNSON ? The first indication of his
purpose concentrated and animated the Radi?
cals. The South he could not use, and the
Democrats were bent, at the first symptom of
difference, upon using him to defeat their an?
tagonists. Upon the first issue which ho made
he failed. When, having laid down for thc
Southern States tho terms of reconstruction, he
instructed them upon compliance to elect their
Federal representatives, he made thc issue.
When ho recognized the Congress which rc
fused to receive them as the lawful Govern?
ment of the Union, he submitted to defeat
The logic of his position was gone. Wc are
far from saying that he could successfully have
refused to recognize Congress, but this we do
say, that there was but one alternative, to re
fuse Congress his recognition, or to submit to
it. The very same alternative was put before
Congress. They had either to submit to thc
President or to conquer him; (hey have not
hesitated, and,as in every contest bet ween a weak
good man and a strong bad one, might has con
quered right. There is a striking analogy in
thc present situation between the relations of
the President and Congress, and thc relations
between the Long Parliament and CHAULES I.J
and it looks very much as if the analogy would
run further.
So far Congress hus as steadily mid as suc?
cessfully usurped power as the Parliament, and
thc last supplemental act is as complete and
radical a Constitutional revolution as history has
ever recorded. For in order to carry out their
policy at thc South, Congress has been forced
to deprive the President of powers which are
unquestionably his. They have remodelled the
Executive Department of their government, and
the President himself, after inore than two
years of struggle, declares to tho people of the
United States' "At thc present time they can?
not according to the Constitution repeal these
laws; tliey caunot remove or control this des
post ism,'1 and thus goes out, we are afraid, for
ever, that "returning gleam of sunshine,"
which thc prophetic vision of Governor PERRY
recognized in thc luminous opinion of Mr
STANBERT.
In saying this, nothing is further from our
purpose than censure of thc President: for his
effort he has all our gratitude, in his failure all
our sympathy. History will do him justice; j I
especially will it preserve for honor that con- ? (
scientious love for the Constitution which seems
both to prompt and to restrain his action. Dut
surely it is time for us to profit hy his experi
encc and to listen lo Iiis advice. If at last, even
in his opinion, this despotism can neither bc
removed or controlled, are wc braver
stronger Dian he, that we can hope to oppose
it ! If this is so, is it not clear that whatever
reaction thc futuro may bring, however sure
.'a returning sense of justice,'' yet that in thc
meantime a revolution will have been accom?
plished, which no reaction can undo, and no
"sense of justice can refuse to recognize?" Ac?
cording to the President's declaration, the Re?
construction Act, with the Supplemental Act of
construction, is now the law of the land, and
cannot be repealed or controlled until thc elec?
tions of the fall of 18(38, deprive thc Republi
;an party of their power. Now it is not easy to
sec the grounds upon which the President rests
bia hope of this chango, ff anything seems
certain, it is that thc coming Presidential elec?
tion will secure a Republican Executive: and,
if so, thc only reaction we can expect will bc
such a modification of thc terms of the Recon?
struction Act, us its successful execution, ami
thc condition of thc South may permit. Hut it
is not worth while to discuss this probability,
for long before these popular elections, thc
Reconstruction Act will have been executed.
Universal suffrnge will have been granted and
exercised-the Conventions of thc States will
have been called-their Constitutions will have
been adopted-the question of their readmission
will have been in all probability decided.
Thc Presidential election will cither con?
tinue the Republican party in power (and if it
does, there will be no' further expectation of
reaction), or it will not. Now we may rest as?
sured that if such a thing should happen, the
party which comes into power will not risk that
power in the attempt to undo what has been
done. Such a parly may prevent much, but
they will undo little. The history of all re?
actionary parties has been that while they
derive much of their strength from those who
desire thc restoration of old things, their
policy, if successful, is always based upon a
wise regard to thc new interests which revolu?
tion has developed.
But if this government should pass into the
hands of those who would cheerfully undo the
work of the last two years-could they ? The
South itself would bc divided-in many of the
Southern States the popular vote would bc a
large opposition majority-in tho North thc
Republican party would be united by defeat,
and it is difficult to see where the power of such
an administration would come from. We may
delude ourselves if we choose, by shutting our
eyes to thc future and longing for the past; but
it seems to us that this last Supplemental Act,
and the concluding warning of tho President's
veto, ought to convince us that tho revolution
through which wc have so far passed, has done
its work as well upon the Constitution as upon
us, and that we could as readily rebuild our
houses from the charred and blackened frag?
ments, which mark thc route of General SHER?
MAN'S invnding army, as restore from its present
ruins the old Constitution of the United States.
Thc question now is timply, whether wo will
use such opportunity as is afforded, and such
poweras is left us, to secure, as fur ns wc can,
the interests of the South in the future opening
before us.
