toy Telegrapli. Hew York Market. NEW YORK, September 2.-The stock market -was dall but firm yester? day. Gold closed at 14A%. The high price of gold yesterday had the effect of producing a firm market for nearly all kinds of foreign merchandize, and, though trade was rather moderate, the sales were gene? rally at very full prices. This was especially the case with imported mer? chandize. Domestic produce was quiet and without decided change. Cotton was steady. Petroleum was very firm. Groceries tended upward. On 'Change, flour and wheat were steady. Corn and oats were lower. Pork was $1 a bbl. lower, the stock being much heavier than was antici? pated. Lard was firm* and whiskey was decidedly higher. From Fort Laramie. FORT LARAMIE, September 1.-The wagon-road party under CoL Sawyer, from Sioux City, arrived at Fort Con? ner, on Powder River, after many hardships, in a destitute condition. They report the route by Nimeraza and White Hivers impracticable. They were sometimes two days with? out water. The Indians attacked them several times, but were driven off The party lost three killed. The route to Montana from this place, via Fort Conner, Powder River and Clark's Ford, following the East base of Big Horn Mountains, is re? portad practicable. It cuts off 450 1 miles of the distance by the old trail. Plenty of wood, water and grass are said to be on the route, which is very direct. The post for Powder River is j located on this route. From Wcitcrn Mexico. NEW YOBK, September 6.-Advices received in this city state that the im? perial troops occupied Hermozillo on the 12th of August, and had thrown open the roads in all directions in the interior of Sonora. The liberal troops under Pesquiera, the Juarist Govcrn otv, which, some two months ago, numbered 3,000, have disbanded and g.me over to the imperial forces. The G?ndara party, the old rivals of Pesquiera, had made common cause with the imperialists, released the French prisoners held by Pesquiera, who had been several months impri s med at Hermizollo, and had con? ducted them to the imperial com? mander. They had been held as hostages, closely confined, and were | in daily expectation of being shot, as an onset to the execution of the bandit Romero and his officers in Mexico last winter. Among them were a number of Egypl lan Zouaves. Pesquiera had but about 20? men, and it is supposed would take refuge in United States territory. His army, which has thus disappeared, is the last organized force of the Juarez Go? vernment in North-western Mexico. The late defeat and quick succeed? ing disbandment of Pesquiera's army is considered as putting an end for the present to the opposition to the Impe? rial Government in that part of Mexico. Although Pesquiera threatens to join the Apaches and wage a guerilla war, there is now no apprehension of trou? ble from that source. The roads to Arizona are open, and regular shipments have been made of silver bullion from the Southern mines of Arizona. Guaymas was in peaceable posses? sion of the Imperial Government, and business was reviving. The United States Government were building an eight company post at Ca? labasas, in Arizona, near the Mowry and Esperanza mines. These troops, I supplied from California, will afford j protection to that portion of the fron? tier. The general mining news from Mex? ico is good. Some very rich speci? mens of silver ore have been received from San Antonio and Cacachila, in Lower California, said to exceed any ores yet brought from that peninsula. SUFFRAGE IN SOUTH" CAROLINA. From highly intelhgent gentlemen, direct from South Carolina, we learn that the question of suffrage may prove somewhat embarrassing to the South Carolina politicians in settling the basis of representation in that State. A strong party will be in favor of fixing it on the white basis, while the low country interests have hereto? fore controlled the legislation of the State by the preponderance in slaves. To insist now upon the negro forming any portion of the basis of represen? tation will be more or less compro? mising upon the question of negro suffrage.-New York Times.

Sept 5 It is the most singular thing, that ?mong all the schemes of late devised, both North and South, among politi? cians and statesmen, learned divines, newspaper editors and coirrespondents, for the disposal of the negro, we have not, since the day of Jnbilefe, heard fie word of liberia. What-has be? come of the Republic of Liberia, President Roberts, gun-boats and all? Have they been sunk in the depths of the ocean? We hope not; but for all that we have heard of them since the emancipation of thecoloredraoe, they might as well be. Everything has been thought of-everything talked of-to promote the welfare of our co? lored brethren and prevent their-be? coming the besotted, half-civilized creatures that the traveler sees in the West Indies. The radicals them? selves, excepting a few demented amalgamationists who believe in the superiority of a hybrid race over the Caucasian, advocated the negro's be? ing located off by himself in some happy land, where he may be allowed to vote, to discuss and argue, and to manage his own State, municipal and domestic affairs. Such is the plan of Gen. Cox, the Republican candidate for the Governorship of Ohio. But why colonize them on this continent? If it be true, as Gen. Cox asserts, that the white and the black man are not suited to live together, and that it is best for them to jae apart, why not promote the Liberian scheme-the African Colonization Society? Why not send our Christianized and civil? ized negro population back to the orange groves pf Africa? For thirty years devoted men and saintly women have been laboring in that field of pro? mise to convert the heathen and re? claim the inhabitants of the bush. Why, then, will not some of our in? telligent freedmen, instead of lan? guishing out their lives in a useless contest for social and political equality here, form emigration aid societies, I or adjuncts to the Colonization So I ciety? and cry ho! for the land of gold dust and ivory! The South al? ways did favor this scheme-the North will now.-Richmond Times. WISE THIEVES STEAL AND COMPRO MISE.-Last summer, a bank clerk in New York stole $100,000. He lost the money by "fighting the tiger." He then called upon a lawyer and in? formed him that he was a ruined man and thought of suicide. This led to the following dialogue: I "How much does your defalcation i amount to?" I "One hundred thousand dollars." "Got any of it left?" "Not a cent." "That's bad; you have left nothing to work with." "What must be done?" ' 'You must return to your desk and abstract another hundred thousand." j "What must I do that for?" "To preserve your character and save you from going to the State pri son. With the hundred thousand dollars you are to steal to-morrow, I intend to compromise with the bank. Your stealings after to-morrow will amount to $200,000. I will call at the bank and confess your offence. I will represent myself as your heart-broken uncle, "honest but poor;" I will offer the bank $50,000 to husk up the mat? ter. The bank will accept. This will leave $50,000 to divide between you and me-that is $25,000 apiece. With this sum, you can retire from busi? ness." The young man listened and took on wisdom. He doubled his defalca? tion and compromised as the lawyer said he should. He is now worth $250,000, and is counted "one of the most respectable gentlemen in the city of New York." In a letter to Governor Pierpont, of Virginia, Attorney-Gen. Speed takes occasion to state for the information of persons seeking pardon, that the only influence; exerted by agent or attorney in the matter of applications is to de? lay the applicant's petition. As a fitting reply to the malicious insinua? tions that money influences the deci? sions of President Johnson in cases submitted to him for pardon, the At? torney-General says the President pro? nounces any such intimations a gross insult, not only to himself but to every one officially connected with him, even down to his lowest messenger.
