Eflcobedo. Gen. Esc?belo gave ordevs at once that io ease he at? tempted to escape, any of the guards might shoot him on his (Escobedo's) responsibility. Credat Judous Apella. Imagine a Mexican refusing a million of dollars! THE ENGLISH MONEY MARKET EFFECT OF THE INFLUX OF BULLION THE HARVEST.-Neither tho favorable harvest weather nor the arrival pf a further quarter of a million of gold from America have had the slightest influence on tho funds. The public, who purchased largely a month ago, are liable to resist the temptation to realize the.five per cent, profit that has accrued, and are satisfied for the present to let the proceeds lie idle at their bankers', who, in their turn, find it difficult to obtain employment for it at two per cent. Thus far, it is ovident the revival of financial confi? dence has scarcely made any progress either in Paris or London. The un? paralleled accumulation of bullion and the low rates of discount have rendered it impossible to obstruct a certain advance in the prices of the funds; but the inherent feeling of distrust is almost as strong as ever, and consequently, wheu holders dis? cover that they can actually obtain a fair profit on their original invest? ments, they rush to secure it, as if there could be no hope of its perma? nence. A similar tendency pervades every department of trade, and by checking all orders for foreign goods, except such as are indispensable, in? creases tho prospect of a large conti? nuance of the influx of bullion. The possibility of another indiffer? ent harvest constituted tho only apparent contingency that might bo likely to turn the tide, and now that the promise of abundance seems to be daily strengthened, the problem as to the point the plethora in the money market is likely to reach, and the mode iu which it will ultimately find development, becomes more than ever interesting.-London Times. CHARLESTOIX-HER COMMERCE AND TRADE-It is a matter of gratifica? tion that Charleston is fast shaking off the debris produced by the late war, and is now in a fair way of re? gaining her former commercial supre? macy as the second great Southern city. Her merchants are alive to her wants, and are making the most stre? nuous exertions to turn the tide of trade back into its old channels. The planters and merchants of eminence of Alabama and Georgia formerly pa? tronized the Palmetto City, but the war diverted that intercourse into other channels, and Charleston suf? fered immeasurably by this loss. The associations which cling round the old mart are strong, and the sympa? thy of the people of these States is enlisted in her recuperation. Let her merchants do but their duty in pre? senting the commercial advantages of Charleston, and trade, of its own accord, will naturally seek the best market. This, coupled with old and hallowed memories, will rehabilitate and give renewed prosperity to the Mecca of the South, at whoso shrine wo have worshipped in the halcyon days of youth. That her prosperity may be commensurate with her worth aud devotion to the lost cause, is the earnest wish of all who love her for her grand old memories. The article which called-1 forth the foregoing, to which it was intended os an introduc? tion, will be published to-morrow. [A uausUt Chronicle. BA NEW CAUSE OF QUARREL WITH AUSTRIA.-Prussophobia is not yet extinct; the report that the Cabinet of Berlin is about to make up for the loss of Luxemburg by the building of a formidable fortress at Trarbach, on tho Moselle, is causing no little irritation. The Journal de Paris points out that the contemplated fortress would be nearer tho French frontier than Luxemburg, and would bo far more threatening to France. When will French journalists make up their minds that what takes place on German, and especially (as in this instance) on Prussian soil, is no con? cern of either their Government or themselves? When French Minis? ters come down to the Corps L?gis? latif, and assert that a bill raising the army to 800,000 men must be voted this y?>ar, why should Prussia not be able ir> build up a dyke able to arrest tho overflowing of that military torrent over the Palatinate? I Paris Correspondent London Heruld. NEW YORK.-A New York corres? pondent writes: Merchants might as well shut up shop and send their clerks off to the country. I took a stroll among tho wholesale houses a few days ago, and did not see a buyer hi them. But trade is always very dull at this season, and the presont stag? nation was anticipated. Jobbers are confident that the fall trade will be lively. Good news about the crops has cheered them up wonderfully.

May 29_wa PHLEBOTOMY.-When Dr. Sangrado found his patients weak, he gave them water gruel. When they got weaker, he blod them and dosed them with calomel and jalap. Oil Blas tells us they almost invariably died. A good many people are killed that way yet. T' *. world in general, however, hi s found ou . that, in cases of debility and premature decay, HOSTET TER'8 STOMACH BITTERS* is the true life-sustaining cordial. Thia tonic is a powerful and perfectly harmless restora? tive. But it does moro than invigorate-it regulates and purifies. While it builds up tho strength and infuses vitality into the blood, it brings all the secretions into har? mony with thc laws of health. Tho feebler sex fin l it invaluable in the various physi? cal difficult les to which their organization renders them subject. In aU hysterical and hypochondrical cases its effect is ma? gical. The infirmities of age are alle? viated by its use; and where the circula? tion is torpid, and there is a tendency to paralysis, HOSTETTER'S BITTERS are recommended as a means of re-invigorat? ing the system and prolonging life. At this season of the year particularly, when mid-summer's scorching beat does so much towards reducing the vital ener? gies of tb*e body, this inestimable tonio and stomachic produces a wonderful effect. By it tho strength is increased, Uio appe? tite preaerved, and firmness and elasticity given to the system. July 3 jQ TO MARRY OR NOT TO MARRY! WHY NOT?

G It A NU For the Benefit of the LADIES' SOCIETY , . lu Aid of tue Suffering and Destitute Poor of the South, Will take, place In Washington. D. 0., ?ugnst 1? '67. THE "Ladies' Society in aid of the Suf forin? and Destitute" Poor of tho South" would respectfully and earnestly call the attention of the generous Northern public to the great distress and fearful Butlering now prevailing in the Southern States. Letters aro da?y received from the South, from tho Generals Commanding, Govern? ors, ministers and eminent citizens, fur? nishing the most heart-rending details of the actual want, famine and starvation in their immediate neighborhood. The fol? lowing few extracts from tho very many letters received bv tho Secretary and Ma? nagers of tho Society are respectfully re? ferred tr : H DOLARTERS, 4TJI MU ITARV DIST., (MISSISSIPPI AND ARKANSAS,) VICKSBURG, MISS.. May 13, 18C7. I am glad to soe that the attention of the contle and humane ladies of tho North is being turned towards the sad and desolate condition of this onco happy land. You, Madam, surrounded with the plenty and comforts of a wealthy city, can scarcely appreciate tho fact that, in many parts of tho South, whole communities aro, by a failure in crops and thc absence of money or its equivalent, left tn want of thc neces? saries of life; and that poor women, with large families of helpless children, so ac? customed to depend on the labor of others, that now, with no husband, brother or servant to help, and no money, they do not know what to do or where to go for food; but aro left in tho solitudes of these South? ern forests, in rags and gaunt with hunger, subsisting on what the mother or largei children can shoot or pick up in the woods, or on what tho few neighbors, nearly as poor as thoy are, can bring them. Officers of my acquaint ance have mot with such mothers, long after dark, ont in the woods, with an old gun just fired, and the coon or possum just killed; have gone home with them and met tho group of little Btarrelings waiting patiently mother's re? turn with some of the only sort of food thev had tasted for weeks; and women and children have boen found within sixty miles of the capital of a Southern State, during tho past year, who had starved to death in their lonesome cabins. These cases of great distress are rare in Southern cities, for there, even the most delicately bred can generally find some work which they can do to keep the wolf from tho door: but the farms or plantations in the South aro pe? culiarly secluded, with miles ot forest or swamp between them, poor roads, and the stock and animals nearly all taken by tho war, the famine, the Hoods, or thc thieves, who in such times infest a country, and the distressed families are often, by "tho time necessity makes them want to leave, too sick to travel on foot, and there is no other way to go. Your proposed entertainment, Madam, should it produce only fuuds enough to re? lieve a email fraction of the destitution of this couotrv, will bo a good beginning, and may bo followed in oilier cities North by similar appeals to people who have happily never felt the desolation and tho horrors which follow in the tracks of great armies of invasion. God spoed your society in the good work, is the wish of, Madam, vours truly, E. O. O. 011?, Brevet Major-General.* H EA Do. CARTERS, FlBST MILITARY DIVISION, RICHMOND, YA., May ll, 1867. Mrs. Hartoxce Mather-YLX DEAR MADAM: I shall be too glad if anything I can say will aid the society in it? noble work. A largo proportion of the people of tho South have suffered and many are still suffering almost to the limit of endurance from thu devastation of war and subsequent failure of crops. They are making every; possible exertion to revive their various branches of industrv and becomo self-supporting. The liberal assistance which thc Northern people aro well able to give, will relieve a great amount of distress, and will no doubt be sufficient to place the poor of tho South beyond further suffering for food. The recent manifestations of an almost univer? sal desire throughout the South for a reallv fraternal re-union with the North, may well servo to stimulate thc generous sympathies of thu Northern people, while nothing could do more to foster and encourage the growth of a hoalthy sentiment in the South than the generous aid which it ia the mission of your society to Invoke. I sincerely hope tho noble efforts of thc society may result in the most abundant success." I am, dear Madam, very respectfnilv, vour obedient servant, J. "M. SCHOFIELD, Maj. Gen. HEADQUARTERS, SECOND MILITARY DIVISION, CIIAULI sTON, S. C., May 13, ls(?7. Tho excellent purpose yon have in view cannot be too much .ommended. The lib? erality of the Government of tho United States, and the munificent contributions already made for the relief of thc wide? spread destitution in the States, leaves Kreat numbers unprovided with food and (nothing; And until an abundant harvest I enables tho people herc to do more for themselves, I trust the ever generous und prosperous committees of the North will continue their noble gifts to this impover? ished and afflict td population. With my best wishes for the success of your under? taking, I remain, Madam, very respectful? ly, DANIEL fe SICKLES, Commanding Second Military District. COLUMBIA, S. C., May 10, 1807. Permit mc not only to give you the as? surance of my poor help in thia your gen? erous endeavor to relieve our impoverished and unhappy people, but to express to you in their behalf, that gratitude which 1? so eminently your duo for the generous sym? pa: hy manifested by your organization for those among us in diatrets. Wishing you God speed in your noble work. I am. Ma? dam, very respect!ally, your obedient ser? vant, JAMES L. ORR, Governor South Carolina. GREENSBORO, May U, 1867. Have jost returned from a tour through the section made memorable by "Sher? man's march to the seaboard." Poverty, suffering and destitution of the people can scarcely be realised-living in huts, rudely constructed of charred boards, of rails, boughs and mud, you are met by hollow eved, emaciated forma, whoso first words I are "bread"-for something to stifle the cravings of hunger. In ono place, I wit- ' newsed the body of a child borne to its last rest, on a board, in tho same rags in which it died. In another, four females existed for a week on two pound? of corn, together with ?orne roots. On the road, I met an? other who had walked twelvo miles to beg some food for her children. Manv other instances can bo given of sad suffering from actual want of food. Very trulv, FREDERICK WATTS, M. D. The public have already responded nobly to the call, but not to the extent required - to keep starvation from making victims of many." Additional funds must bo raised at once; the case is urgent. I The Lady Ma? nagers, after mature deliberation, have decided to bring it before the g?nerons neoplo of the North, by giving a Grand National Entertainment, trusting to their activo co-operation and sympathizing aid for tho immediate supply of means to en? able thom to purchase and forward food to starving thousands. The Grand Na? tional Entertainment will be given at Washington, D. C., August 1,1867. 300,000 tickets will be offered for sale, at $2 each. Every ticket will be entitled to an award, which will take place at the eame time. Half of tbo amonnt will be in valuable awards to the holders, and the balance will be devoted at once by tho Lady Managers to purchasing food to be sent South for immediato distribution among tho most needy. The Lady Managers have entered into an arrangement with Messrs. Bentley, Clark & Co. to superintend the disposai of tickets, and conduct the entertainment in a manner worthy the patronage and sup? port of the pubhe. LIST OF AWARDS, 1.
