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.

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.
