New York, Jen nary 17.?Another dense fog this morning, rendering ferry navigation tedious and dangerous. Rev. W. C. Clark has been expelled from the New York Conference of the Methodist Churob, for carrying on a lot? tery, ostensibly, for the benefit of a mis? sion house ana free reading room. Clark continues to serve aoburoh of his own in Brooklyn, apparently successfully. The Secretary of the Samann Bay Company says it is stipulated with the Dominican Government that the compa? ny is to protect itself from outside inter? ference, but the company counts upon thesymyathy and aid of foreign govern? ments not-in opposition to the company. It will first declare Sarnaus Bay a free port to the whole world. A Washington despatch to tho Herald states that Congressmen consider the Samaha Bay scheme impracticable, and the Haytien Minister thinks the Ameri? can purchasers will find they have made a bad speculation, being fit for nothing but a naval station.

Carpenter with? drew bis amendment appropriating $300,000 to the Washington monument, expressing doubt of the possibility of completing it from the softness of the ground ander the monument. The bill wsa then passed. Morton made an elaborate speech upon his resolution, direotlng the Committee on Privileges aud Elections to inquire into the defects of the present electoral Bystem and the best .means of remedying it. Trum bull replied, agreeing with Morton in some respects, bnt dissenting from some of his views as to the proper remedy. The founders of our Government, he said, intended to found a republic, not a* pure 'Democracy, It was not intended that the majority should have all the power, and to pntthe Government on that basis, would prepare the way to a despotism. The matter went over. P. O. Cox, a brakeman, killed by a railroad aooident, was well known throughout the South. His funeral was largely attended by the oitizons and rail? road people.

The following order has been issued by the Probideut; Whereas it has been brought to the notice of the President of the United States that many persons holding oivil offioe by appointment from him, or otherwise, under the Constitu? tion and laws of the Unitod States, while holding such Federal positions, accept of offices under the authority of the States and Territories in whioh they re? side, or of munioipal corporations, under the charters and ordinances of such cor? porations, thereby assuming the duties of the State, Territorial or munioipal office, aud the same time that they are charged with the duties of the civil d office held ander Federal authority; and whereas it is believed that, with few ex? ceptions, the holding of two saoh offices by the same person is incompatible with a due aud faithful discharge of the duties of either offioe; that it frequently gives rise to great inoonvenionoe, and often re? sults in detriment to the public service; and, moreover, ia not in harmony with the genius of the Government: In view of tho premises, therefore, the President has deemed it proper thus, and hereby, to give pablio notice, that from and after the 4th day of March, A. D. 1873, except as herein speoifled, per? sons holding any Federal oivil offioe, by appointment, nnder tho Constitution and laws of the United States, will be expected, while holding such office, not to acoept or hold any office under any State or Territorial Government, or under the charter or ordinances of any munioi? pal corporation; and farther, that the .acceptance and continued holding of any snob State, Territorial or munioipal of? fioe, whether elective or by appointment, by any persons holding oivil office, as aforosaid, uuder the Government of tbe United States, other than judicial of flces, under the * Cons11 tutibn' of ' ihe United States, will be deemed a vaca? tion of tbe Federal office beld by such person, and will be taken to be, and will be treated, aa a resignation by such Federal officer of bis com? mission or appointment in the ser? vice of the United States. Tbe offices of Justices of ? the Peace, of Notaries Pnblio, and of commissioners to take the acknowledgment of deeds of bail, or to administer oaths, shall not be deemed within the purview of this order, and are excepted from its operation, and may be held by Federal officers. Tbe appointment of deputy marshal of the United States may be conferred on she? riffs, or deputy sheriffs; and deputy postmasters, the emoluments of whose office does not exceed $600 per annum, are also excepted from tbe operation of this order, and may accept and hold ap? pointments nnder State, Territorial or municipal authority; provided the same be found not to interfere with the dis? charge of their duties as poatmaaters. iioade of depariaieuta and other of? ficers of the Government who have the appointment of subordinate officers are required to take notice of this order, and to see to tho enforcement of its pro? visions and terms within tbe sphere of their respective departments or offices, and as relates to the several persons holding appointments under them re? spectively.

Varnish Yoor Stamps?Virginia To baoco Seized in Georgia ?J.- Mason Riae, Assibtaut Assessor Third District, Georgia, writes to Supervisor Perry, of R-aleigb, N. C, as we learu from tbe Era, tbat hs baa detained at the depot of the Charlotte, Columbia aud Augusta Rail* road, in Augusta, ten boxes of manufac? tured tobacco, from Factory No. 8, Fiftb District of Virginia. Tin* tobacco was detained for these reasons: First, besides the auspiciou caused by irrt gulurily of tbe numbers on the ?tamps, it is tho ille? gal fixing of the stamp* ou the boxes, gum arabio only having beeu ueed, aud that, too, on the edges and iu spots on tbe stamps, for tho purpose, as Would seem, to allow removal for shipment back to the factory tor use. The stamps cume off without difficulty. Second, the con? fusion showu iu Oiiuliou notice as to the number of factory. On six of the boxes tbe factory is numbered "73, 5th Dis? trict of Virginia," uud ou four it is "8, 5th District of Virginia." Stumps that are put ou a box as prescribed by law cannot bo removed wit bout great dilti oulty. Progress of tue Port Royal Rail? road.?We learn from the Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel, that work ou tbe Port Royal Railroad is progressing ra? pidly, with every indication that the linn will be completed from Augusta to its tide-water terminus by tho 20th of Feb? ruary. Only about twenty-five miles of track remain tube laid, aud this is being pushed with all possible energy and de? spatch. All the piers and maeoury, with most of tho superstructure of the bridge over tho Savannah River, at Sand Bar Ferry, has bjoti completed, the adjust? ment of the diuw bciug the chief work yet to be accomplished. v. Tbe ship Tuscurora, which sailed from Mobile, ou tho 18th of November, with a load of cotton, foundered with her crow, twenty-five miles off Lisbou, u few days ago. Richard M. Daulevy, her captain, and fourteen of her luckless crew, went to their watery graves with her. The firut mate and teu men had reached Gibraltar iu the boats. Cargo, of course, a total loss; but fully covered by insurance. A young man named Gill, of Gaines, Miohigan, went to bed aud dreamed tbat a tree was falling toward him. In his frantic efforts lo escape, he jumped into tbe middle of the floor and thence through a wiudow ova two tree-tops, lauding iu snow nine feet from the build? ing and thirty feet from bis bed. The wiudow was badly smashed, but he wasn't bnrt at all. A loving San Francisco man tucked his wife np iu bed, kissed her, and went to the offioe to do some important busi? ness. Two hours later, while driving along with another womao, he rau against a buggy, upsetting it and bis owu. There was a see no when bo dis? covered that the occupants of the other buggy were his wife and a noted gambler. The Charlotte (N. C.) Democrat says: "We saw, last week, a lump of gold found in Union County, weighing about one pound. It was u solid lump, with very little alloy. Not long since we published a notice of a lump of gold found in the same County, weighing two or threo pounds, the property of u poor olergyman. Savannah furnishes a fearful warning to collecting attorneys. Oue of them? Mr. V. Howard?who was pushing seve? ral claims in tho Ogeechee District, was found dead in u culvert, tbe other day? supposed to have been put there by ex? asperated debtors. The following is tho successful ticket at the reoeut election for lutenduut aud Wardens of Timmousvtlle: For Intend? ant?Jesse 12. Keith. For Wardens? Capt. S. D. Johnson, J. A. McEacheru, J. N. Garner, A.b. Brown. A Tennessee school master reproved one of tho big girls for spitting ou the stove, and her brother took down his little shot-gun aud chased tho pedagogue iuto North Carolina before bo could pepper him. It is said that Mrs. Miohuol Regan, re? siding ou Washington avenue, Albany, on tho 7th, became the mother of threo boys und a girl?ouo boy dead. About teu mouths since, sho had triplets, aud one year previous she gave birth to twins;, und tbe end is not yet. A widow in Dorchester, Mass., has been three times married. Her first husband was Robb, tbe secoud Robbtus, and tho third Robbiusou. Tho same door-plate has served for tho whole threo. Au affray occurred iu Darlington, ou tbe 0th itiBt., between two colored men, James Jackson and Moses Cannon, which resulted iu tho deatu of tho for? mer. It is reported of n Cincinnati clergy? man that ho refused to commune Mill his congregation, because his salary was reduced to 32,000 a year.
