WASHINGTON, August 18.-The Commissioner of Internal Revenue has rendered the following decision : The interest of any successor to arise from the sole of any real estate, under any trust for the sale thereof, shall bo deemed a succession, charge? able with duty; and the duty shall bo paid by tho person having control of the funds. If A wills B $1,000, and for want of personal property the executor sells real estate to pay the legacy money arising from such sale, it is deemed a succession, on which executor must pay tax.

WASHINGTON, August 19.-The President has assigned Gen. Thomas to the command of the 5th District; Hancock to tho Department of the Cumberland; and Sheridan to the Department of Missouri.

Pryor publishes au affi? davit, denying personal knowledge of Conover and his confreres-they were never at his office. In connection with tho muster out of volunteer oflicers, it is confidently stated that a colonel of tho regular army will relieve Geu. Howard as Chief of the Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands. Military changes dependent upon Gen. Sheridan's removal havo occa? sioned frequent visits between the War and Executive Departments to? day. The questions, however, relate to minor details. Tho assignment of Thomas to the 5th District may be regarded as fixed. Thero aro $196,000,000 in the Treasury, whereof $109,000,000 aro gold. Revenue receipts to-day $641,000. NEW YORK, August 10.-Several vessels with sickness aboard were quarantined yesterday-nothing con? tagious, however, so far os known.

Grant. It is believed they have injured tho causo of reconstruction. Tho press is agitating the mil for a State Convention, for the purpose of making an organized effort in oppo? sition to re-organization under tho military bills. A number of papers aro in favor of calling a convention. County meetings are being hold in Alabama, to elect delegates to a con? servativo convention to bo held at Montgomery, on tho 4th of Septem? ber. Accounts from Texas, Louisiana and Southern Mississippi oro disas? trous. The worms and overflows de? stroyed half the crops. Guru and cotton crops in Alabnma aro better than in many years. The yield of corn is immense and the cotton prospect flattering. The worm as yet is exciting little apprehension. Judge J. "W. C. Horne, a promi? nent ?itizen of Sumter County, Ga., was murdered by a party of freed? men-five of whom were arrested by the military and imprisoned at Ma? con; four confessed participation in the crime. Radical or Republican organiza? tions have been established in every city and town throughout the South, preparatory to conducting a vigorous campaign for reconstruction nuder tbe military bills. Huts aro made in a hurry in Paris. In the Exposition, is a m '.chine by | means of which a rabbit skin may be converted into a hat in fifty mi? nutes. During the procoss the bat undergoes six oporations. The bats aro lined and trimmed by a sewing machine. The Sidney Herald states that in Australia there is one little spot where peoplo have been dying of thirst. It is said that in the Lachlan back country, bodies and skeletons of persons who hive perished from want of water aro being continually found. A gentleman in the spring time of life, when walkiug with a lady, stumbled and fell. On bis resuming the perpendicular, tho lady remarked, "she was sorry for his unfortunate faux pas." "I didn't hurt my fore paws," said he, "I only barked ray knee." Tho strange spectacle of a fight be? tween two deaf mutes occurred in the streots of Lewistown, Me., tho other day. They called each other hard names with their fingers fast and furious and gavo and received kicks on tho shins without outcry. RESIGNATION OF THE MOBILE PO? LICE.-A large proportion of the white members of tho police force in Mobile have handed in their resig? nations to the chief, giving as a rea? son their unwillingness to serve under a colored officer. A Leipsic bookseller announces that he is about to publish the works of Maximilian. They will form seven volumes, of which four are in the hands of the printers. The publica? tion is made by the express desire of the Emperor Francis Joseph. A clergyman was ono day talking with his landlord, a Universalist, ou the personality of the devil. A little incredulous, the gentleman remarked, "I should like to see the devil." '?Can't you wait?" was tho quiet re pTy A Chicago drummer, for a whole? sale house, got drunk in Quincy, Illinois, went off to a grove and went to sleep. When he awoke he found himself dressed as a steamboat baud, and minus his money and good clothes. A colored orator, in a speech which he recently made at Prospects, Priuco Edward County, told his sable hearers that freedom did not mean idleness, but to strike harder and dig deeper than they bad ever be? fore done. A Florida negro was exercising bis civil right of thrashing his wife, when a neighbor interfered. Taking up a shot-gun, the wife-whipper shot at the other, but missed him and killed two of bis own children. It is said that tho radicals of Nash? ville propose running colorod can? didates in tho comiug municipal election, in order to raise tho test as to whether negroes are legally eutitled to bold office. A cotemporary says he onco knew a young lady who was so excessively modest that sho always wore green Spectacles, because she objected to looking at gentlemen with her naked eyes. Peoplo aro advised against being buried in ono County in Kentucky, as tho soil is so poor that it cannot raise them when Gabriel blows his horn. Fred. Douglass says that ono man, with the right on his side, is a ma? jority; but it doesn't follow that one man with tire majority on his sido is right. The Colorado Times says that there aro three things which a woman can? not do. She cannot sharpen a lead pencil, cannot do up a bundle, and cannot carry an umbrella. A man who tried the Chicago ma? trimonial bureau found his wedded happiness cut short in two days by tho disappearance of his spouso with considerable greenbacks. An old lady refused to lot her niece danco with a young graduate, because she had heard that he was a bachelor of arts, whereby she under? stood that he was au artful bachelor. It's rather remarkable, that while soveral thousand feet are required to make one rood, a single foot, pro? perly applied, is often sufficient to make ono civil. The old saying of "haven't got a red" bas been dropped in tho rural districts for "nary green," whoo speaking of currency. 8,130 acres were added to thc pro? ducing lauds of Florida, during July, under tho homestead act.
