By Tolograpn. Fire Caused by LigUtnisig. MOBILE, May 1G.-Lightning atrnck the city warehouse this afternoon, burning the building and 500 bales of cotton. Congressional. WASHINGTON, May 17.-The Senate has passed the Wost Point appropriation bill. It contains a provision prohibiting the ap? pointment of any cadet who served in tho army or navy ot the Confederacy. Tho consular and diplomatic appropriation bill also passed. , The House resumed the consideration of tho tax bill. A letter was received from Ger.. Qrant, recommending an increase of the regular army, for the purpose of sup? plying the places of thone now going ont of service. New York Market. NEW YORK, May 17.-Cotton firm. Sales of 1,200 bales, at 35@36c. Gold 29J. European Items. NEW YORK, May 16.-London dates of the 6th instant have been received. Prussia/has declared to the German Diet that the warlike preparations on her part are entirely of a defensive character. The Austrian reply to tho Prussian noto was conciliatory, but declimea to disarm under the circumstances. The warlike preparations of Venetia are being pushed forward energetically. It was rumored that Venetia would soon be placed in a state cf siege. A mutual understanding bas been ar? rived at between France and Austria, in accordance with which Austria undertakes that, should Italy attack Venetia indepen? dently of France, none of the eventual re? sults of victory will bo secured by Austria, without the diplomatic intervention of France. The asserted object of Austria in menacing Prussia and italy is to force England to assent to a European Congross. Nothing has been heard ot tho steamship Citv of Washington since tho Propon tis left._ "Lo! THE POOR NEGRO-"-This is but one of a thousand similar cases that have occurred in various parts of the South. We copy the follow? ing from the Louisville Courier: "A gentleman of this city, who was banished to the South by the milita? ry authorities during the war, left a negro woman with three children in this city, who, for some three years, had been acting for herself, and a part of the time assisted by a husband to whom she was married some year and a half ago. Recently, the woman died, anet such was the penury of her? self and husband, not even a coffin could be paid for, and the funeral expenses (some $30) had to be defray? ed by her late master-a returned, re cousirucUal rebel. Thc children were left in utter destitution, and to save them from starvation, have to be cared for by their late owner." TENNESSEE POLITICS.-The bogus Legislature of Tennessee has passed an Act to issue bonds for the pay? ment to loyal men of losses on ac? count of the war, together with boun? ties to those who were disabled^and the families of those wi. o died in the service. The conservative press of . the State urge that popular meetings be held in every County of the State, and resolutions adopted giving notice .' to all concerned, that, when the peo? ple of Tennessee shall have regained the management of their own affairs, which will happen at least as soon as August, 1867, they will refuse to pay one dollar, principal or interest of the . bonds issued in pursuance of these plundering schemes. This will pre? vent the negotiation of the bonds, and defeat the scheme of the Brown? low faction. FRA?TCE AND SPAIN.-The New York Herald's Valparaiso correspondent says: "Certain highly important docu? ments sent to the Chilean President by the Dictator of Peru have been forwarded by General Kilpatrick to Washington, showing some time ago a French stranger died suddenly in Lima. Among his effects were pa? pers proving him to have been a French agent, coming with proposals to the Dictator of Peru to make him? self king or emperor, promising men and money from France under the Mexican flag-*-in other words, through I Maximilian. This exposesa scheme \ between France and Spain to make a 1 jump at all the small South American ^republics. England approves, but does not help by men or money. THE NEGROES IN THE GALLERIES OF CONGRESS IN WASHINGTON.-The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Sunday Mercury thus writes: "The negroes at the Capitol have taken complete possession of all the public places, and on Wednesday last we counted 2S4 contrabands, of the filthiest character, in the gallery of the House, and as we left, in utter disgust and amazement, the darkeys i were ponriug in. A large number ot them had baskets, with their dinner, which they eat in the galleries, as though it were an eating saloon. The cushions are lilied with vermin, and it will take many a bottle of Lyon's powder to kill off the creeping things that stick so close, to the filthy con? trabands." A circular has beeu issued from the Treasury Department, requesting the cashiers of national banks to trans? mit, with their other returns, a state? ment of the amounts iu their hands to the credit of each disbursing officer of the United States, military, naval and miscellaneous. Paymaster-Gene? ral Brice has issued an order to pay? masters to report weekly to the Trea? surer of the United States the amouuts of public money deposited o their credit, and where deposited. IMPORTANT BILL APPROVED BY THE PRESIDENT.-The President has ap? proved the bill to incorporate the National Theological Institute in the District of Columbia, for the educa? tion of persons for the Christian ministry. There is to be no exclu? dion from the institute on account of theological belief. The bill is silent as to race or color. He hes also ap? proved the bill to extend the jurisdic? tion of the Court of Claims, so that it can now hear and determine the claims of paymasters and other dis? bursing officers for relief from re? sponsibilities on account of losses, captures, Ac, in the Une of duty. Appeals, however, may be taken to the Supreme Court, as in other cases. As the investigation into the affairs of the Merchants' National Bank of "Washington extends, the more is the complete rottenness of the concern exhibited. It has transpired that in addition to Government losses al? ready published, there were $250,000 deposited by J. B. Hobbs, the dis? bursing clerk of the Treasury De? partment. The indications are that the wreck is complete, and the depo? sitors will get little or nothing. It is the general impression among bnsi noss men that Freeman Clarke, Comp? troller of the Currency, is highly cidpablo in the matter, as it is his business to know the condition of tho National Banks. - . Mr.- Doolittle, of Wisconsin, in reply to a blood-thirsty radical, mado the statement that some time ago measures had boen taken to indict Gen. Lee, and the subject had been referred to Gen. Grant, who indig? nantly spurned the idea, as it was ex? pressly provided, when the Confede? rate armies surrendered, that those composing them should not be mo? lesten so long as they obeyed tho laws. v <i The Herald's special says that un unfavorable comment is excited by the fact of paymasters and others having such large sums deposited in banks to their own credit, and upon which they undoubtedly receive interest or douceurs in some way, while the Government is paying . a high rate of interest on the same money, obtained on temporary loans and otherwise. RICHMOND DARKIES.-A Boston man, writing home from Richmond, says: "Though I do not believe fifty Southern gentlemen would wish tt> seo slavery restored, I um convinced that many of the blacks would prefer slavery to the condition to which they have' been reduced by sudden emancipation." The Secretary of thc Treasury gives notice that the Treasurer of the United States has been instructed to receive and pay unmatured United States certificates of indebtedness, with accrued interest, to the extent of $20,000,000, if presented to him before the first proximo. The Boston editors are very indig? nant at the admiration, affection and veneration which we entertain for the memory and virtues of Stonewall Jackson. After reading their angry comments upon o-p* respect for a dead hero, we eau very well understand their admiration for that living beast, the bottled Butler. DR. CHEEVER REBUKED.-Dr. ( 'bee? ver, in his sermon in New York on Sunday, referring to the President, said: "You have power with God that may sweep him from the place of power." Several members of the congregation arose and left the place when th?3 sentence was pronounced. The English journals all seem to regard the vote on the reform bill proposed by the minority as a defeat of the Government. The Govern? ment commenced the session with a majority?of sixty and more-now its pet measure is only carried by five majority. The Detroit Trill,une, after a tho? rough investigation of the condition of wheat in that State, is compelled to conclude that tho aggregate crop for lStiti will fall below tho average yield of past seasons. A "fowl" epidemic is prevailing among the chickens in the vicinity of Milton, North Carolina, and they are dying by hundreds in au unnatural way. Sixteen thousand barrels of Hour are lying in the warehouse of onornill at Minneapolis, Minnesota, awaiting tho opening of navigation to bo shipped East. Ten buildings on Fourth and Bul? lit streets, Louisville, Ky., were burnt on the morning of the 14th -loss $53,000. Another destructive fire oc? curred the same evening. Letters from Japan state that tho ironclad vessel'built in America for the Tycoon is a failure. The Japan? ese engineer who purchased her com? mitted suicide. The New York Post thinks the cor? ruption ami iniquity of the Indian bureau is quite as bad as that report? ed in the negro bureau. Let us at? tend, however, to the negroes first. The trial of Col. Jacqnes, for the seduction and murder of Louisa C. Williams, is in progress?t Louisville. On the 14th, the jury returned a ver? dict of not guilty. The Louisville Courier reports the sale of 500 bales of middling cotton, to be delivered on the 1st of January next, at thirty cents The two dollars per bale tax im? posed on cotton at Memphis by Maj. Gen. N. J. T. Dana, United States army, has been ordered by Gen. Stoneman to be restored. Illinois now leads in the cattle trade; producing, as she does, the largest number and the best beef cat? tle of any State in the Union. We gather from the New Orkans papers that there is considerable emigration going on from that quar? ter to Brazil. A son of Mr. Holloway, Commis? sioner of Patents at Washington, has been arrested in Louisville for swindling. Col. Wm. Land, the gallant de? fender of Fort Fisher, has been elect? ed Mayor of Norfolk. Dr. Dixon, Roman Catholic Arch? bishop of Armagh and Primate ol all Ireland, died on the 29th ult. George Ward, the oldest Odd Fel? low in tho world, died in Preston, England, recently. A Richmond paper says there is a steady tide of emigration of blacks from that city Northward. An interesting little sou of Mr. John Johnson was drowned near Lewis' T. O., on the 10th. Gens. Beauregard, John S. Preston and Wirt Adams are at the New York Hotel. The ladies of Prince George County, Md., are to hold a fair for the relief of the Southern sufferers, on the 29th. There were soveu deaths from sui? cide in Cincinnati last week.
