NEW YOIIK, June 10. -A St. Albans spe?
cial says the final Feuiau invasion wing of
the army retreated to that place from Pi?
geon Hill, and is preparing to go home.
The whole force is completely lenionlized;
officers and inen refused to do duty, and
were deserting hy wholesale, and. After a
council of wai-, Gen. Spear reluctantly or?
dered thc force to abandon tho soil of Cana?
da. No arms or reinforcement* had reached
them, and Spear said he would rather be
shot than leave in such a way. The United
States officials arc furnishing transporta?
tion for tho Fenians, who gladly accept the
opportunity.
General Meade made a speech to tho
United States soldiers, and said the set?
tlement of this trouble would prove satis?
factory to onr own and other Governments,
as tending to show that the United States,
notwithstanding tho past, would do to
others as they would be done by.
Gen. Spear and staff surrendered at Og

and captured sixteen prisoners. Some ol
the Fenians were killed, bat how many is
not known. This fight took place almost
on the boundary hue, across which th'
Fenians were compelled to retreat. Tl t
English, however, had no idea of stopping
on account of boundary, and they charged
forward aeross the line", firing upon the re?
treating band of Feniinis. They abo mad?
some captures on American Boil. Thi*

INTERNAL REVENUE TAX
Under the regulations lately adopt
ed by this office, gains derived from,
and losses incurred by, the purchase
and sale of stocks, are regarded os
gains and losses in business, and
without reference to the time during
which the stocks were held; interest
and dividends derived from stocks
are regal ded as income derived from
fixed investmeids, without reference to
the time during which such stocks
are held. But when gains derived
from the sale of stocks involve inte?
rest received or accrued, such gains
may be regarded as derived from busi?
ness alone.
Salaries, except where specially
! provided for by statute, are regarded
as income from business. The value
of property used in business, less thc
amount of insurance, may bc deduct?
ed, when lost, from the gains and
profits of business. The fact that a
person returns a gain or claims a loss
upon tho purchase and sale of stocks,
does not necessarily imply that he
does a business which requires, or lias
required, the license of a broker. The
liability to be taxed for such license
should be determined upon its own
merits and as an independent ques?
tion. E. A. ROKLTNS,
Commissioner.
TARDONS.
The President has decided, to-day,

[Neir Y,>rk Herald.
The Herald is mistaken. The A"</
Jiunal Republican tells the story as
I follows:
I It is a fact, ?ot generally known,
that the President, a few days since,
gave positive orders to lils pardon
clerk to deliver no more pardons, ex- j
cept to the applicants themselves,
and to entertain no application prc
sented by a third party. lu case of
tho absence of the persons receiving
pardons, they aro forwarded to the
Governors of their respective States,
who in returj. forward them to the
parties pardoned. This judicious
\ decision of tho President will save
him a world of annoyance from pro?
fessional pardon-brokers, who, for a
year past, have bored him with their
importunities.

- The Stnatt's Pinn.
The following dear exposition of
the Senate's programme for recon?
struction is from the Washington
correspondent of the Augusta Consti?
tutionalist:
"By substituting a clause r/roscrib
iug all persons in the rebellion who"
have ever held any office under the
United States or State Governments
for the cause of general proscription,,
they expect to make their platform
more popular. The idea of dis!ran?
chising the mass of the people was
shocking to every fair mind. But
the idea of not letting the leaders in
secession hold office is more conso?
nant to the popular opinions North.
The provision that Congress, by a
two-thirds vote, may release any par?
ticular individual from the constitu?
tional disability, shows a new idea
has occurred to the majority in Con?
gress. This looks to building up a
party at the South in sympathy with
the majority in Congress. It is a no?
torious fact that the Congress have
seen, with great dissatisfaction, thc
influence the President has attained
by the use of the pardoning power.
They propose now to reserve a largo
portiou of this for their owu exclu?
sive use. They wish by this that the
South shall understand" that the real
power is at the Capitol and not at the
White House. The radical party are
playing just now their game with
some skill. They are not pressing
negro suffrage. They propose to cur?
tail the political power of the South
and exclude the politicians of the
South from office, except under a
two-thirds vote of Congress. They
think this scheme cannot be attacked
successfully, and on it they are to
cany the tall election. And further,
ii' the South refuse to nccept the
terms proposed, and her Senators
and Representatives are not admitted
to Congress, the question of recon?
struction is still kejit open, which
suits the radicals exactly; because
they think the longer the South is
kept out the better; for two reasons
first, because in the meantime their
political influence goes for nothing,
and thc South can be gradually edu?
cated up to thc right mark."
CALL UPON ?SOUTH EKNEKS TO VIO- |
I LATE 1'lUNOIPLES OF HONOK.- The j
idea of honor in the human heart j
seems to bo a good deal ignored, not
only by Congressmen, but by the '
press. Even the honorable Senate
of the United States does not hesi
tate to apply a personal chalice to
Southern eorauiunities, that, upon :
retleciion, as gentlemen and human- :
ists, they will, iu another day, feel j
\ little disposed to justify. Un this |
point we quote from the Springfield j
Republican as follows:
"It is generally conceded as rea
sonable, that the Southern States i
should be required to assent to thc !
equalization of .?presentation as pro- ?
posed in the second .section, and, ?
standing by itself, it would have a
very fair chance of adoption; but it |
is hardly to be expected that the j
Southern people can bc w illing to |
ostracise their leaders for the sake of i
procuring power for themselves. It j
will be considered an outrage upon :
all their notions of honor and chi- '
valry. if this provision were put in
the form of a law, as thc joint com- i
mittee proposed, it might have been I
patiently submitted to, as a not un- j
reasonable penalty for rebellion, im- ?
posed by the victorious Government.
But if tiie Southern people them- j
selves accept, it. as an amendment to j
the Constitution, they thus become |
ministers of vengeance upon their
own leader.;. This is au act of hu?
miliation and expiation so difficult
and mortifying that it is hardly con?
ceivable that it will be performed un?
der any stress of motive."
SECRETARY RTCCCLLOCH'S SAGACITY.
In the letter sent by him toCoiigress,
on Tuesday, Secretary McCuiloch,
while claiming that his action in sell?
ing gold to meet the foreign demand
was justified by the commercial men
of New York, and was, in bis own
judgment, well calculated to prevent
a financial crisis in England, anni to
benefit this country, candidly admit?
ted that its wisdom would be best
tested by the news from abroad. Yes?
terday the Africa arrived from Liver?
pool, and we learn by telegraph that
the largo arrivals of gold from Ame?
rica had caused a better feeling, and
a "reaction had set in on change in
London." If thc Secretary has
really accomplished his object, as it
now secies likely he has, gold having
fallen rapi Hy in New York yesterday,
he luis rendered his country a ser?
vice which it should not finget.

A new and terrible explosive com?

of nitro-glycerino. It is exploded by

coming in contact with two hundred

of five thousand pound? of gun?

One of the noticeable incidents at
