The Attorney' General has just deoidod that the Presi? dent's proclamation of pardon, of 1868, operated so as to restore to the corpo? rators or stockholders all their rights, and therefore the right of the Govern? ment ta seize the read is barred. The District Attorney has been direoted to discontinue proceedings, and to foreclose the mortgage given to tbe Confederate Government, on the ground that the contract , is a nullity.

It will be remembered that Rochefort, was led from his prison to the altar, where be married this woman as a last aot of reparation to her, and in or? der to render his children and hers capa? ble of inheriting his name and property. It was one of tho saddest of modern so? cial Bpeotaoles. Eren then it was re? ported that she was dying, bat she took new life and strength from that date, and has survived until this time. Her husband is wearing away his feeble vi? tality in prison, snd, if report speaks true, it will not be long before the dreary drama of a wasted existence has "Finis" written against it in his oase also. Pigasoff knew of only three mis? fortunes?Sleeping in a cold room in winter, wearing tight shoes in snmmor, and sleeping iu the same room with a crying child wbioh one can't whip.

Peterson, an old re? sident of Newborry, died after a painful but short illness of erysipelas. The de? ceased was in bis fifty seventh year. it Tan Dot??otion or Ban Salvadob. Tbo history of the terrible catastrophe is as follows: t The first sbooks of earthquake wore felt on the 4th of March last, whioh de? stroyed some* houses aud alarmed the in? habitants of San Salvador, the greater part of whom took to living in the Bqaarea and open plaees. Tbe shooks continued with more or less frequenoy and force until the 19th cf the same month, when a shock came wbioh luid the whole oity in ruins. Every town and village within a radios of tweuty miles have suffered more or less. Fortunately, owing to the previous shocks having frightened the greater part of the popu? lation from living in their booses, the loss of life has not been so great as it would otherwise have been. Oat of a population of 40,009, whioh the city of San Salvador was said to contain, the number reported killed and wounded va? ries from 50 to 500. The only buildings left standing, though damaged, are the Hotel del Parque and the Government palaoe. la tbe midst of 'the dust and oonsternation, a Are broke oat in a drug store, but it was soon got under. The Government functionaries stood to their posts and did their several duties in e highly creditable manner. The Presi? dent sent his family to Santa Teola, and established himself in the principal square of tbe capital, in a tent, repressed all attempts at disorder and robbery, and rendered assistance wherever it was most ooeded. Any found carrying away pro? perty not their own were shot. The au? thorities still persist in rebuilding the oity on the same s'tc, although this is the eighth time within 150 years that tbe oity has been destroyed. Most of the people, nevertheless, have removed to Santa Tocla. The only building that stood tbe shocks with the least injury was a building erected of timber. The impulse at present is to import timber from California for the 'construction of suoa earthquake-proof housec Aid and money have been tendered and sent from all parts of the republic. Every? thing has risen to exorbitant prices. The prisoners in the jail were removed to other places, and the Sisters of Charity have been assiduous in their attenduueo on the sick and wounded, ('apt. Ken? nedy, of her Britannic Mujesty's ship Reindeer, gave all 'the assistance he could, and offered her for tho use of Mr. Biddle, the United States Minister. The latter, as well as the Government, re? turned letters of thanks to Capt. Ken? nedy. Great fears are entertained that the stoppage of seweis, exposure and fright, tbe dead bodies nnrecovered from be? neath the ruins, and other morbiQo con? ditions, may bring on an epidemic. A fine bridge, lately built across a river on tbe road to Soyapaogo, was thrown down. Other roads have been rendered impassable by immense blocks of stone, thrown down from the heights, some 100 tonB in weight. Owing to the continu? ance of tbe shooks, more than forty bodies were displaced from out of the niohes in whioh they are placed in tbe cemetery. The earthquake is supposed to have been caused by the suppressed volcano of St. Thomas, one of the seven volcanoes within a radius of thirty miles. Isaloo is at present in fall blast, throw? ing down its sides a constant stream of lava, visible at night along the whole ooast of the Balsam region. Tbe officers of the Reindeer report that tbe United States Consulate was a mass of ruins in? side, though the walls were standing. Mr. Biddle, the United States Minister, with his five little ones, had a narrow escape. Daring the two days, three of? ficers remained io San Salvador, and they felt eight shocks. In some places the ground oracked a foot wide, and very deep. At every shock, all the cooks in the place began to crow, and pigeons wheeled about wildly in the air. The English visitors consider it a temptation of Providence to rebuild the city again on the same spot. The crust below it is evidently a mere shell. Tbe ear, placed close to the ground, hears a noise like running water, and the fall of a hoavy stono produces a hollow sound. The Indians would never build on tbii site. Williaii Cullen Bryant's Testimony to Gbant's Civil Sebvioe Fbaud.?In all my intercourse with the peoplo of the South, although it has not bean very ex? tensive nor of very long contiuuaace, I have heard only tbe expressed sense of a desiro to be on frioudly terms with us of tho Northern Btates. Especially has this been the case in Charleston, where I saw more than elsewhere of tbo people of tho place. I havu never, since I crossed Mason and Dixon's line, heard a single expression of bitterness or ma? lignity towards tboso who live North of it. It was but tbo other day that the people of Charleston sent a formal in? vitation to tbo President of the United States to visit South Carolina. He de? clined the civility, aud ot the same time removed the postmaster of Charleston, Mr* Trott, who wah highly esteemed, aud for whoso continuauce in offlco the citizens, without distinction of party, had earnestly petitioned. Iu bis place he appointed a colored man who, whe? ther justly or not, lies under tho odium of being connected with tho oorrupt fol? lows who have for several years been pillaging tho State. This was like an? swering an invitation to dinner with a slap in the face, and was a gross blunder, to say tho least. A white man, named Henry Mills, died on the ferry steamer of the Savan? nah and Charleston Railroad ou Mon? day afternoon. Ed. Lowndes, colored, about twenty two years old, had his right leg fractured on the Soutk Carolina Railroad Monday, by a hand-oar coming in oontaot with it. Tbo residence of Mr. James L. Flem? ing, near the fifteen mile post, on the Qeorgia Railroad, was destroyed by tiro ou Monday night. Josh Billings says that oodtlah will keep a man dry hotter than an umbrella. 500 Dhad Bodies Wabhed rjr*o THK A nsANS ab Rivkb ?-From Cornelius Brown, member of tbe House from tbis Oounty, we have the following partiou lars concerning tho destruction by water of the Perkins grave-yard: Tbo ceme? tery was opened in 1814, at whioh time it was owned by Constantino Perkins, who died during tbe war, and is sixteen mites below Little Rook, on the Arkansas River. The river was very high on Fri? day of lastjreek, at whioh time the yard oommenoevoaving into the river, expos? ing to view moldy coffins, and, in some instances, their contents. The water kept rising until the cemetery was swept completely uway, and about 500 coffins wero washed into the river. It is thought they will all be recovered, as tbe grave? yard is situated In what is known as .the "Horse Shoe," between the river and a lake, where the water forms an eddy. Wben the grave-yard was opened it was situated about 900 yards from the river, but enoh succeeding rise has washed more and more of tbe bank away, until the last flood oame, wbioh destroyed every vestigo of tbe hallowed syut wherein were the loved remains of rr.any citizens. Tbe last body was wr?sbed into the river Sunday, at whioh time the citizens uf the nighborhood were sum? moned out by e justice of the peace to res? cue the bodies from the river, and at whioh time about thirty-five were re? covered. It is thought that all the bodies will be rescued, except those who have loid in the ground until they have decayed. Among the bodies recovered and recognized wore those of Seeley Pillow, a woman who died six weeks ago, and Shade Sbaley, a man who had been dead about a year. The wildest excite? ment prevails in tho vicinity of the de? stroyed cemetery, as the men and wo? men are searching the muddy waters of the Arkansas for the remains of their dear friends.?Little Rock Gazette. Our Disoraob at Vienna.?The He? rald prints tbe following as a special tele? gram from Vienna: "Vienna, April 19.?Swindling is re? ported in connection with the appoint? ment of tbe Amerioan Commissioners to the International Industrial Exposition, to be held in tbis oity. It is asserted that many of the Commissioners pur? chased tbo position for the sake of the houor of appearing iu an oflloial charac? ter at tbo assemblage of the fair and dur? ing its management. One of tho gentle? men says he paid tbe sum of $6,000, but tho rate generally charged was some? where in tbe neighborhood of $2,000. Tbo majority of the Commissioners are incapable persons. The more respecta? ble among them aro engaged in institut? ing inquiry into tbo matter of the swin? dle." The Dutch War in India.?A tele? gram from London reports that tbe forces of his Majesty the King of HoU land hive retreated from their first posi? tion against the stronghold of the Sultan of Aoheen. Tho dojpat whioh they sus? tained at tho opening of the campaign has taught them a peculiar lesson of cau? tion. They are now entrenched behind stockades, whioh tbey have thrown up on the coast line, but onr advices allege that they are in a very dangerous posi? tion, as the Aoheenese army is constantly increasing in numbers. The losses on both sides have been exoeedingly heavy to date. Tbe complications to whioh tbe struggle will give rise may involve Bri? tish interests in that part of Asia to a very serious extent. Curry, the Oeorgia prophet, has com? menced a new revival in Massachusetts, and two of his emissaries preached in Springfield on Sunday. Tho Republican of that oity says: "Aubrey Park is preacher and William Oroutt reader of tbo Elijah message. We have seen a pathetio letter from Orcutt's deserted wife at Cambridge-port, who, since his joining Curry in Georgia, has only been able to live and support their four obil dred by tbe aid of charitable neighbors. Tbo gospel of tbe pi'.iphcs Yanveh is thus to be most fitly interpreted. Judg? ing it by these practical and present fruits, it is hardly an improvement on tbe old-fashioned one." Death on a Palace Oar.?Mr. Sa? muel Merrill, a wealthy and highly re spectable merchant of Boston, while on his way to Richmond en route borne, died in a Pullmau paluoe oar, antacbed to the Eastward bound train of the Bichmond and D.iuvillu Railroad Saturday morn? ing, just beforo the train reached Greens? boro, N. C. Mr. Morrill was a great suilercr from consumption. Commodore Mauby'b Will.?The will of tho late Commodore M. F. Maury was, on Monday, authenticated by the great seal of the State of Virginia, preparatory to its transmission to Eng? land, where much of tho property dis? posed of by the will now is. Oorntno doro Maury died in very oomfortable circumstances, and leaves his family well provided for. Death from Small Pox.?A negro who was removed from Bollersville a few days sinoo, to tho city post house on accouut of his having small-pox, died yesterday. Thero have been no now cases discovered since our last report, last Friday, at whioh time there wore oleven cases of small-pox in all in the pest house, the patients being all ne? groes. ?Auuusta Constitutionalist.
