KEW YORK, April 5.-Advices from Vera Cruz of the 23d have been re-, ceived. The city is in a state of siege. 1,600 men and five pieces of artillery are inside. Provisions are high, but there is no blockade from the sea? side. ' The besieging army numbers 3,500 men, with four small Napoleon guns. More guns and men are daily expected. Maximilian is in Quere taro, with 10,000 men, but no money or provisions. The Liberals are be? sieging Quere taro. Monda, Yucatan, is besieged. The bark Tuscarora, from Charles? ton for Liverpool, which was aban? doned at sea, has been towed into Queenstown. Later advices from tho Capo of Good Hope confirm Dr. Livingstone's death. . The Tennessee conservatives have invited the colored .oters to send delegates to their State Convention, and the invitation will probably be accepted. The Illinois Legislature, previous to a dj on rn mont, passed a law making it high misdemeanor for any manager of a lunatic asylum to receive a pa? tient not declared insane by a j ury. From Washington. WASHINGTON, April 5.-lu the Su? premo Court, to-day, Judge Sharkey gave notice of a motion for a preli? minary injunction against Andrew Johnson, President, and General Ord, Commander of tho Military District comprising Mississippi, and stated that the motion was founded on a bill of equity which he proposed to file, brought by tho State of Mississippi, as complainant, against tho parties named, to restrain them from execut? ing tho Acts of Congress recently passed, called the military bill and the supplemental bill. Attorney General Stanberry suggested that ns it was a case involving the original jurisdiction of the Court, the motion, in the. first place, should be for leave to file the bill. Judge Sharkey ac? quiesced, and said the counsel for the State of Mississippi would now make the motion for ienvo to file the bill, and were now ready to argue. Tho Attorney-General said ho contended that the bill, in so far a$ itpurported i to make the President a party de? fendant, as in effect a suit against the United States, he would, therefore, objeot to leave being given by the Court to file the bill; and he further stated that ho also was ready now to go into argument of the motion. Tho Chief Justice, after consultation, stated that tho motion for leave to file the bill might be made and put on the motion docket; but iu confirmity with tho mles of tho court, it would not be heard until the next regular mo? tion. This motion will, therefore, come up on Friday next. No action regarding tho Louisiana removals has transpired. It is denied that the matter has been officially brought before the President. The Senate hos confirmed the ap? pointment of Alex. Asboth, of Mis? sissippi, ns Minister Resident at Ura guay; and Stanley G. Trott as Post? master at Charleston. In the Senate, Mr. Sumner intro? duced a resolution expelling Senator Sainsbury, charging him with ap? pearing on the floor in a state of in? toxication ; but its consideration was postponed to Exocutivc session. There aro ninety-six applications from ox-Federal naval officers on file for pardon. Tho Senate has confirmed Lovell H. Rousseau to succeed Brig. Gen. Rosccrnnz. Revonuo receipts to-day nearly half a million. Very valuable counterfeiting mate? rial, captured in Western New York, has bean brought here, including a lathe, imported at a cost of $18,000. Sharkey and Walker's bill of com- | plaint in behalf of Mississippi is regarded as a masterly document. It covers four columns. Tho Freedmen's Bureau has thus ' far expended about $10,000,000. Add to this the army pay of its officials, and tho Government stores used, and tho institution has cost about $12,000,000. Tho Treasury is receiving, at pre? sent, an average of about $4,000,000 a week in gold, from customs, and tho samo amount in currency from internal taxes. The crowd of office-seekers in Wash? ington grows larger every day, and completely blocks the hall of tho Senate during the sessions of that body. DRIVING WITHOUT TRACES.-Mr. Hiram Woodruff, the celebrated horse trainer, who died on Friday last, on Long Island, was probably tho first man on record who drove a horse in a race without traces. This ho did in 1858, with Boston Girl. Being a vory hard puller, and tho traces dangling about her legs on tho first heat, Hiram ordered the "Dutch collar" and traces to bo taken off. Tho order was obeyed and he won tho next two heats with ease, nothing drawing the vehicle but tho reins. Three Charles Smiths were recently united in matrimony to three Misses Smiths, at thc same residence, in a Kentucky town. NEW XQBK, April -6*--Noon<**-Gold 33>?. FT?ur 5@lpc.,,bejpfcer..

The following circular has been issued hy the Master Mason of the Grand Orient do France: GBAND ORIENT DE FRAKCE, SUPREME COUNCIL FOR FBANCE. AXD THE FRENCH POSSESSIONS, PARIS, March 1, 1867. To the Foreign Masonic Powers, the Lodges placed under their Direction, and the Lodges Corres?x)nding with the Grand Orient de France. VERY DEAR BRETHREN: The Grand Orient of France will this year cele? brate the sommer solstice by a festi? val and a banquet, to take place on the 15th of June next. At that time, the Master Masons, or representa? tives from all the Lodges correspond? ing with tho Grand Orient of France, will hold a general assembly in Paris, as it is expected that the Interna? tional Exhibition will bring to that city from all quarters of the globe a large number of Free Masons. Thc Grand Orient nf France sees in this exceptional circumstance a favorable opportunity of strengthening the ties which unite tho scattered mem? bers of tho Masonic family, and it thinks that alongside of the festival of industry it'would bo well to cele? brate that of tho brotherhood. It, therefore, invites Free Masons of ever}' order to co-operate with it in giving to this festival a universal cha? racter. Such a meeting of men from all parts of the world, speaking dif? ferent languages, of different manners and customs, but animated with the saivo sentiment-the sentiment of brotherhood-will, in truth, bo a very imposing spectacle. I have not the slightest doubt, very dear brethren, that this idea of tho Grnnd Orient of Franco will be appreciated, and that Freo Masons will come forward and respond to this appeal. Tho greater their gathering tho more numerous will be the links of tho chain .which binds them together, and tho more brilliant will their festival bo. I pray you, very dear brethren, to make this communication as public as possible, i Accept the assurauces of my esteem ! and fraternal uflection. MELLINET, Grand Master Of the Masonic Order in France. The existence of an association in Canandaigua, called the "Mutual Refreshment Club," was brought to tho public notice in a late trial at court, its principal objects being to facilitate tho consumption of lager beer. It has a regular organization, with by-laws, and about OOO mem? bers. It appeared in evidence that, in tho courso of fifteen months, the members had drank 832 cases of lager, and worn out sixty packs of playing cards. Rev. Dr. Burtis, who died iu Buf? falo, last week, when at Union, in 18f * founded tho Kappa Alpha, t. .o oldest college society iu tho country. The Georgia State Lottery and th? - T Masonic Orphan.,'Home. ' In answer to many queries ?dcJresS ed to tis since tho advertisement of the finit drawing of the' ''Georgia State Lottery" appeared in this pa? per, we have concluded to mnke the following statements in regard to it, in order that the public, at home and abroad, may be satisfied that it is a legally established institution ? of tho State, and shonld be entirely free from any suspicion of fraud, or of bogus, being attached to it. This "lottery," then, is authorized to be drawn by virtue of a grant iu tho form of an enactment by tho Le? gislature of our State, "to so far modify the laws agaiust lotteries as to enable" certain parties "to adopt a scheme to raise money for the pur poso of building a home for and supporting indigent widows and or? phans, the home to be called the "Masonic Orphans' Home"-a purely benevolent object, whioh must com? mend itself to . every sympathizing heart with that large class of suffer? ers iu our State by reason of tho sad calamities and results of war. In this grant, or act, of our State Legislature-it having received Ex? ecutive approval-the following par? ties have been constituted the cor? porators, to wit: Colonel William W. Boyd, of Atlanta; Mrs. William T. Wilson, widow of Colonel W. T, Wilson, "Seventh Georgia;" Mrs. Charles D. Pcorsou; Mrs. General Pender; Mrs. Charles J. Williams; Mrs. Sarah Doles; and so many of them as may accept the said graut, which all have done. Of Colonel Boyd, it is proper to remark, that he is n gentleman high in position in the Masonic fraternity of this State, being its Deputy Grand Mas? ter at this point, and is otherwise a most excellent citizen, deeply imbued with that spirit of brotherly lovo aud charity animating all good Ma? sons. To him, in fact, does this "Georgia Sfcite Lottery" owe its conceptiou, and it is to his personal eftbrts before and appeals to tho Georgia State Legislature, that we must attribute the euuetment which authorizes the drawing of tho lottery. The ladies associated with Colonel B. are well known in Georgia-they arc the widows of gallant men, all of whose lives were sacrificed to a cause to which .they were devoted in life. Such is the character of complied with all the provisions of the corporators, who, having strictly tho Act, have proceeded to advertise their first drawing of the "Georgia State Lottery." One of the provisions of the act or grant, and one which should also commend tho lottery to public, con? fidence, is tho penalty fixed to a violation of the requisition in it, I that "tho money received by said lottery, after defraying all necessary expenses, shall be applied" to the benevolent purposes contemplated in the Act, of which an annual report on oath shall bc made t<> the Go? vernor, to wit: The grant to bc with? drawn, and property and assets of the corporation to bo turned over to the "Georgia State Orphan Home," to be used for tho benefit of the institution. So much for tho corporation and the grant under which is established this "Georgia State Lottery." Associated with Colonel Boyd, the principal manager, is a gentleman oi large experience in the manage? ment and conduct of burnes. We allude to Mr. J, F, Broadbent, of Baltimore, who advertised os agent for the lottery. ^Th^^ gentleman stands high iu the estimation of tho people of Maryland, and as we aro assured by an eminent citizen of Georgia who^ hos had business trans? actions with\;bim for many years, deservedly so. By the Legislature of his own State, he was constituted the chief manager pr inspector of the drawings of tho "lotteries there, in order to prevent frauds, a trust of which he acquitted himself to the entire satisfaction of the people of that State. In securing the services of so honorablo and so experienced an individual, the corporators of the "Georgia Stato Lottery" have dis? played much wisdom. [National Intelligencer. Tho notorious Mrs. Lucy Stone, and ono Mr. H. B. Blackwell, who resides at Montclair, near Newark, Now Jersey, have started for Kansas, where they are to address tho Topeka State Convention with reference to striking out tho words "white" and "male" from thc Stato Constitution, tho same to bc subsequently submit? ted to the people for ratification. AMERICAN CREDIT AnnoAD.-It is announced, on tho authority of ouo of tho officers of the Bank of Eng? land, that, "in all its dealings with tho United States, the bank hus never lost a dollar by an American."

Ninety-two petitions for divorces aro now pending beforo tho Supreme Court at Providence, B. I., of which all but twenty come from the wives. Of tho reasons assigned, tbirty-ono are based on continual neglect, twen? ty-one ou desertion, and seventeen each on adultery and extreme cruelty. The Boston Transcript is telling political secrets. It sayo : "Some of our best Republicans favored Gen. Butler's election to Congress on the ground that, during the first session, he would break his political nock." , A Puris correspondent says: "Epi? curean luxury has found a new use for flowers. Violo?f are eaten with oreara and sugar. Tho other evening, at an Apician -chimer, given by a mer? chant, they were forthcoming. They were very nice; the violets taste as they smell.

Frank Arnim, Inspector United States Internal Revenue, has seized some twenty-five or thirty stills, being operated in Greenville District, for? feited for non-cqmpliance with the revenue laws.

Breckinridge has ad? vised his friends to accept in good faith the Sherman reconstruction bill as the surest and only mode of re? storing the country to peace and quiet.
