MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1872. y EWS OF THE DAT. -Some Idea of the business of Messrs. Bass ?.Co., the English ale manufacturers, may be had when we learn that their freight bills lor the past year would amount to $700,000. -England ls threatened with a potato fam? ine, and the consternation of the farmers who j . pay high rents can be imaeloed. The crop ls j almost totally destroyed for the season. -A Frenchman, M. Delsol, is to follow In the track: of Dr. Livingstone. He goes to Africa at his own expense, and will make a thorough exploration of the Interior. -Mr. A. T. Stewart at. last enjoys the pleasure of knowing that his new hotel for workingwomen ls completed. It received the final touch ol the painter's brush Monday, and ls ready tor occupancy. -It will be Interesting to the ladles to know -that Ute ex-Empress Eugenie now dresses almost entirely In red and black, and that her beautiful hair ls beginning to show threads Of sUver. . -The operation ol the compulsory educa? tional act In England ls creating some un? easiness. A class has arisen that refuses to j recognize the right of the board to take away the father's control over his child's education. -A few weeks ago the creek under the great Natural Bridge, in Virginia, suddenly disappeared; and subsequent investigation demonstrated the fact that the stream emp? tied Itself into the earth through a number ol newly-formed fissures of unknown depth. -Strauss, if the figures don't lie, should be well satisfied with his late visit to America. He was paid the round sum of 117,500 for the Jubilee season, with a guaranteed benefit of $2600 In gold. He received $3300 in gold for his New Tork concerts, and sold bia ''Jubilee Waltz" for a little over $500. -Henri Rochefort has received two thous-1 .. and pounds from a London publishing house for the English translation of bis "History ol the Second Empire." The principal feature of j the werk ls a detailed, biography of the ex Empress Eugenie previous to her marriage to Napoleon III. -It la proposed in France lo organize al regular corps of carrier Dlseons, In thR event of emergencies similar to those which occur? red daring the late war. The headquarters ot ? this branch of the service Is to oe Paris, and detachments are to accompany the divisions ot the army, while others are to be stationed at the different fortresses. -The general verdict of the military powers of Europe, with regard to the efficacy ol the mitrailleuse ls, that the weapon ls only useful for defending narrow passages, where a con? centrated fire is-needed. Russia, however, Billi appears to have faith In them, as the Rus? sian army has been provided with fifteen bat teries of Gallings. -The total number of troops now stationed in the Southern States ls 7879, of which num? ber 3743 are In Texas on Indian and iront 1er service, 334 at For tr ees Monroe, and 451 in Florida, mostly doing garrison duty at Fort Eickens, Key West, and the Dry Tortugas. Ol the balance a small number are doing duty at coast fortifications, so that about 3500 are In the interior. The largest nnmber in any one State ls 1056 In South Carolina, while the smallest number ls in Arkansas, 63 being sta? tioned there. ?MJarafa, the composer, who died recently, was far from rich. His principal Income, ac? cording to the Swiss "Times," was derived from a snuff-box. This snuff-box was given to the author ol "La Prison d'Edlnbourg" about thirty years ago by Baron James De Rothschild, aa a token ol esteem. Carara sold lt twenty-four hours later for seventy-five Napoleons to the same Jeweller from whom lt had been bought. This became known to Rothschild, who gave lt again to the musician on the following year. The next day lt re? turned to the Jeweller's. This traffic con? tinued tm the death of the banker, and longer .till, for his sons kept up the tradition to the great satisfaction ot Carafa. -The Washington correspondent of the Bal? timore Bun says: "Senator Robertson, of South Carolina, has recently been In this city, and lt ls known that In conversations with some of his Mends he declared he should not, on account of his health, take any part In the political manoeuvrings in the State which he halls from as United States senator. lt ls known that the anomalous condition ot the Radical party In South Carolina ls worrying other Southern Radicals beside the senator from that State, and threatens to result In new deals of office without regard to results ol national Issues. A special dispatch receiv? ed here to-night says that the Orangeburg j Times, a leading Democratic paper In South Carolina, has declared to-day for Greeley and Brown and for Moses, the Regular Republican nominee for Governor. This looks like a com? bination to carry the State against Grant and Wilson." -The law of the Reichstag expelling Jesuits from Prussian territory ls not likely to remain a dead letter. The heads ol the establishments ot the Sons of Jesus and affiliated orders throughout the empire have been warned of | the terms of the new regulation. At Posen the ladies of the Sacred Heart-an order con? sidered by the Prussian authorities to be affili? ated to the Sons of Jesus-have been requested to close the boarding-school In that town, where all the noble ladles of the country re? ceived their education. Tbe head of the con- j rent of the Jesuits at Mayence protested against the Interdiction of the Prussian au? thorities, contending that civil government had no right to Interlere with the exercise of j religions functions, and denying (hat the ten? dencies of his order were contrary to the Jaws -o? the State. The Jesuits of Alsace have been able to obtain a prolongation of their stay for ) two months beyond the limit allowed by ihe law. It ls reported thal many, if not most, of j the expelled Jesuits have signified their Inten? tion cf nettling in Ireland. -lt ls pretty weU established, though not j ! pffloially confirmed, that the final award made 11 by the Geneva Conference to the United States for the depredations of the Alabama, Florida, ?fcc, ls a gross sum ol sixteen millions of dollars. The total amount ol claims flied was, in round numbers, about twenty-rodr millions of dollar?. The award has been made under the seventh article of the treacy provid? ing for a gross sum. This does away with ar? ticle ten and eleven, which provided lor a board of assessors to ascertain what claims were valid in case the arbitrators fall to agree ch an award in gross. In accepting the latter the arbitration has determined as to each ves? sel separately whether Great Britain has, by any act or omission, failed to fulfil any ol the duties laid down in the three rules of article sixth of the treaty, as to whether lt exercised due diligence to prevent the fitting out, arm [ lng or equipping, or sailing of the cruisers I from its ports. The amount which ls required to be paid in coln by Great Britain to the United States in the City of Washington is not j due till one year from the date of the award, which disposes of some statements that the claimants may get their money before Decem? ber 1st. This government^ after it receives the gross award, will be compelled to estab? lish a commission and pay its own claimants. A Good Riddance. The Gleneva Board have awarded the TJoited States Alteen and a half million dol? lars in compensation for losses sustained through the cruises of the Alabama, Florida and Shenandoah. This is more than was claimed by the United States Government for direct damages, and is fully as much as was expected to be obtained. In the Ameri? can case, the direct losses to individuals were set down at fourteen million dollars. Beyond "this were the indirect claims, prac? tically unlimited in amount, for national ex? penditures in the pursuit of the Confederate cruisers, for the loss in the transfer of the commercial marine to the British flag, for the enhanced payments ol insurance, and for the prolongation of the war. These claims were mied out by the arbitrators, and the award does not cover the claims of the owners o? whalers, not merely for the actual loss of their vessels, bat for the loss of profit Under Article Seven ol the Treaty of | Washington, the amount of the award must | be paid in coin within twelve months; this, it is hoped, will be the last o? the Alabama 1 claims. But there are counter-claims to be adjusted. The losses of British subjects | during the war, as allowed by the Washing ton Commission, must be deducted. One merchant in this State has an unquestiona? bly valid claim for sixty thousand dollars, < and it will' not surprise any one but bat eyed politicians if the balance finally turned ! over to the United States falls woefully short of tbe amount of the original award. Nor will even this remain in the Treasury, as out of the award the United States must pay the claims already on file for direct losses by individuals. There will belittle left; not more than enough, perhaps, to pay the wine bills and hotel bills of Messrs. 'Cashing and Bancroft Davis. The press on this itide of the Atlantic may murmur, because the award is not sufficient to cancel the national debt; bat the soand sense of the people will tell them that the country is well rid of a difficulty which a j political party might, at any time, have | made the pretext for a rainons war. Io England, there will be a natural soreness, and tba anti-Administration papers will again declare that the honor of Albion is tarnished. None will dream of admitting that the award is just. Sir Alexander Cock? burn, the English Commissioner, refused to sign the decision. The salve will be that fifteen and a half millions was a low price to pay for establishing a rale of national re* sponsibi li ty which, in the event of a Euro? pean war, will be of incalculable advantage to Great Britain. It is a great relief that the Alabama ques? tion is settled at last. For years lt bas been a God-send to stomp speakers and news? paper writers; a never-failing occasion for the display of bombastic rhetoric. They will be forced to liud something new; when they have finished abusing or ealoglslBg Grant and Horace Greeley. The Banks and War Deposita. Judge Graham, on Thursday, rendered his decision la the case of Joseph Whaley against the Bank of Charleston. The plaintiff claimed that oe February 18, 1862,- there was due bim a balance, in good money, of $33,437 38, and demanded the sam of $25,030 38, alleged to be due him, in good money, as a depositor, on Novem? ber 13, 1860; such balance to be increased or diminished upon taking an account of the real value of the plaintiff 's deposits, and of the real value of the payments to the plainlifl, after December 16, 1860, from which day the defendant is entitled, by the State law, to show, in accounting, the real value of the deposits. The defendants claimed that, by public notice, all credits and payments, after September 6, 1861, were in Confederate treasury notes and other currency; denied that plaintiff's de? posits, after September C, 1861, were in good money, or were entered or to be accounted for as good money; and al? leged that, prior to April 1, 18C4, the plain? tiff drew all the money due him, and his ac? count was closed. Judge Graham, in his decision, says he prefers that the caso should rest upon its own particular circumstances, and, refer? ring to other judicial decisions, expressed bis unwillingness to go so far as to say that, without special circumstances, a bank ac? count is, os matter of law, to be divided and scaled. In this case there are special cir? cumstances. There has never been, says Judge Graham, any settlement between the parlies: the notice given by thc Bank on September 6, 1861, does not effect "credits, "deposits, debts of the Bank already exist? ing;" the Bank could not "change the "character of ita then existing debts or "make them payable in Confederate cur? rency;" the notice does not cover the old debt due Mr. Joseph Whaley "tor which the "Bank received fund3 of the par value of "gold;" that "debt could not be paid in "Confederate notes without the testator's "consent, and the testimony is very positive "that he never did consent." After the new departure (September 6,1861,) Mr. Whaler's iredits were in Confederate notes, and his checks were paid in the same currency; "they were not part payments on account, "of the old debt, but items in the new ac- j 'count." Jadge Graham, therefore, decides ( bat the debt due by the Bank to Joseph j rVhaley on or before September 6,1861, bad ] "no reference whatever to Confederate "notes as a basis of value," and the bank is chargeable with it in funds of par value; the amount of this debt is made not-less than $33,481 96; the balance due by the Bank on November C, 1861. The decision concludes os follows: "Tho account be? tween the parties subsequent to toe 6th "day of September, 1861, is to be stated, "and the value of each side of it to be as? certained by ascertaining the value of each "item at its date according to the provisions "of Sections 1, 2 and 3, of Chapter CV of "the General Statutes. The deposits on one "side, and the checks on the other, upon "the footing up of the amount of these "items thus ascertained, a balance can be "struck, and if the value of the deposits ex "ceeds the value of the checks, the excess "must be added to the debt of September 6, "1861. If the value o? the deposits is less "than the value of the checks, then the "difference is to be deducted from said pr? avions debts, and a final balance struck, "for which balance with interest from date "of commencement of this Buit, the Bank is "liable to the plaintiff. It ia ordered that "this cause be referred to W. J. Gayer, Esq., "special referee, to take and state the ac "count between the parties as herein direct? ed, and that he do report the same, and "also any special matter appropriate to the "case." _ _ The Last Feather on Grant's Back. There ls no lODger any doubt as to whether ex-Governor Andrew Curtin goes with Greeley or with Grant The accep? tance of the Liberal Bepublican nomination for delegate at large to the State Constitu? tional Convention ties the most popular man in the Keystone State to the cause of Union and Reform. .,. Forney's paper, the Philadelphia Press, enumerates the signers of the . address io which Audy Curtin is nominated, and frank? ly gays that "the representative men of tho "the list" show that "the Liberal Bepubli "can party of Pennsylvania is composed of "men that we cannot afford lo despise or "underrate." The Philadelphia Age (Dem? ocratic) claims that Curtln's espousal of the Liberal movement "dissipates tbe last ra? tional hope of the Grant party to succeed "in Pennsylvania either in'October or No? vember." The New York Tribune says that "with Bockalew at the head of the "State ticket, and Curtin leading the dele? gates to the Constitutional Convention, "the Liberals of Pennsylvania have com? pleted a list of nominations which will "command the respect of the whole country, "and will never know defeat" There is dismay in the Grant ranks. Pennsylvania is ours; and as she goes so goes the Union. Like Plc-t rust. The Republican, of Saturday, says that Mr. Reuben Tomllnson "will run to the end, "if he only gets Ave thousand votes." This is a cheap pledge, considering that Mr. Tom? llnson ha j no more control over the brains of the movement of which he is the hgnre head, than Mrs. Partington's mop bad over the waves of the broad Atlantic. When Orr, Corbin, Sawyer and Bowen give a pub? lic pledge that they^will sot abandon "the "bolt," even if the Democrats nominate a third ticket, it will be time enough to put their sincerity to the touch. Until then, such a promise as that of Mr. Tomlinson will not help him or deceive the public. The Hon. M. P. O'Connor at Worcester, [From thc Boston Post.] A striking Incident at the Worcester Con? ventions was the stirring speech or Mr. O'Con? nor, ot South Carolina, delivered after the merging of the Conventions In Mechanics' Rall. Mr. O'Connor's reputation as a sterling patriot and lervld orator had preceded him, his Baltimore speech having found a response throughout the country, and the assembled Democrats and Liberal Republicans at Wor? cester gave him a welcome which must have convinced him how strong and earnest a spirit of Justice and conciliation sllll existe in Massachusetts. Mr. O'Connor's points were all well made and poweriully put; he reverted to the Revolutionary era when Massachusetts and South Carolina made common-cause, and looked forward with eloquent hope to a period when they might once more be united in political aspirations and lraternlty. He sol? emnly uttered his conviction that the South accepted In al! earnestness and good faith the three amendments securing the results of the war, and making war questions henceforth dead issues. The graphic and terrible picture which he gave ot ihe South under the lnfa- j moue corruptions of the carpet bag govern moms, sustained by the Administration at I Washington, should have been heard by the millions of voters, who could then no longer doubt on which Bide to cast their suffrages. He was earnest In declaring that the South needed peace and rest, and recuperation, and I that all she craves ls to return In reality to I the condition of freedom to which the Cirant I parly falsely pretends to have restored her- j Coming, aa this eloquent speech did, from the I citizen of a State which has felt the most grievously the carpet-bag iniquities and op-j pressions, lt thoroughly deserved the sympa-1 thy and attention which it received. I A Practical Suggestion. TO THR EDITOR OF THE SEWS. It has been said that, as we are to be robbed I and cheated by either party now seeking office, and os we canuot elect our own, let us have nothing to do with the election. I differ from thlB opinion. The white men, the power, wealth and Intelligence of Hie State and city, can, by giving their Influence, elect either j parly Ihey choose. We know that neliher of thoBe two parties ls trustworthy, but a curse I and disgrace lo our community. But let us te firm and united amongst ourselves, and say to each party, "flow many men, honest "and true men, will you allow ns In each "county to place upon your ticket ?" and that party that will allow the most-that parly we will elect, for we can do il I We will tell I them, "This will prove your desire for reform, I "and your wish to carry out your protesta-1 "lions of sorrow for wrongs done, and your J "sincerity for an honest administration of gov "ment." We know the scoundrels ! but, UB I they have commenced to assume the garb of J honesty, they may not wish to throw lt off I yet awhile. Let us try them. ? September 12,1872.
