A proclamation of the monarchy will be made in abont six weeks. A London letter of July 31, says: "Mr. Motley'b friends have for some time known that his health was delieate, and will not be surprised to learn that he is confined to his hotel by a some? what serious attack. He has had a slight paralytic stroke. It occurred as Mr. Motley was taking lady Margaret Beaumont down to dinner. His right arm suddenly fell powerless by his side, and this side itself was also somewhat affected. He was carried to his hotel in ' Dover street, and has not sinoe left his room. The physicians agreo in regard? ing the paralysis qb by no means serious, nor likely to trouble him for any time. On inquiry, yesterday, it was ascertained that he had been going on favorably, with the exception of considerable neu ralgio pain." Mr. Mowbray Morris, for many years manager of the London Times, is ex? ceedingly ill, with bot little hopes of reoovery. Washington, August 15.?Yesterday afternoon papers came on time from New York. The rain has resumed. Bbooklyn, August 15.?Throe women ?one of them the alleged widow of a murdered man, whose name end resi? dence are unknown?have been arrested. Washington, August 15.?The Trea? sury Department recently, in the re examination of various documents, dis? covered one or two cases of alleged cus? toms fraud, said to have been commit? ted in 1867, and a few days ago sent Mr. Vanderbilt, of the department, to New York, for the purpose of examining into the case; the names of several custom house officers now in office having been mentioned in that connection. The chief object of his visit to that city was to ascertain whether they wore impli? cated in fraud or imprope: transactions. Mr. Vanderbilt, having returned to Washington to-day, reported to the Secretary that there was nothing what? ever to implicate those officers in wrong? doing. This was the only matter which occupied his attention while in New York. His visit had no connection whatever with tho removal of anybody, nor had any orders been previously is? sued for that purpose, or for examining into tho conduct of officers and em? ployees connected with any branch of the custom honse.

Sr Lons, August 15.?Advices from k the Pawnao reservation,"in Nebraska, say tho Pawnees ore preparing for war with the Sioux, in retaliation for tho attack on them some days ago. They are said to have C00 warriors among themselves,'and have invited the Otoes, Omabae, Yanktona and Poneas to join them, nearly all of whom have aooepttfd the invitation; and at last accounts the braves of these tribes were either at or on their way to the Pawnee reservation. The Pawnees expect to muBter 1,600 warriors, and propose to prosecute a re leatless war against the Sioux. Boston, August 15.?It is reported the underwriters will soon increase largely the rates of insurance throughout' the city, because of the hesitancy of the oity authorities in increasing the cm-, oiency of the fire department. Four of the largest English insuranoe companies, it is understood, havo received ordern from the borne office to suspend taking Boston risks for one month, iu order to see what notion is taken with regard to strengthening the fire department.

Jackson made a speech of fifteen or twenty minutes' leng'th, de? nying his quilt, but not offering his in nooenoo. Tho fall of seven foot failed to break his neck, and ho died of suffo? cation, after a severe et niggle. He was attended on the scaffold by threo colored ministers. His body hung twenty mi? nutes before life was extinct. Washington, August 15.?The re? turns of the Agricultnral Department for the 1st of August indicate a goneral and somewhat marked improvement in the condition and promise of the ootton crop since the 1st of July. The average condition cm July 1, 85.5; August 1, 91.80. These figures are corroborated by the explanatory notes of correspond? ents, which, with few exceptions, are muoh more hopeful in their tone than they were a month previous. The ohief drawback is a widespread apprehension of inseet ravages. In North Carolina, the lice are reported in four Counties. En Ohowan, old farmers say they never saw .ootton lice so numerous before. En Oamden, the cotton louse in many instances has almost ruined the crop. En Perquimans, cotton is almost covered with lice. The oaterpillar is reported as having appeared in greater or loss numbers iu nine Counties in Florida and in five Counties in Georgia; also in Taoksou County, a new enemy to cotton, a borer, whioh bores into the form and causes it to drop. The caterpillar worm, army worm, boll worm or web worm is reported in fifteen Counties in Alabama, in nine in Mississippi, in twelve in Louisiana, and sixteen in Texas. Paris green and other destructive agents aro being experimented with, and in some instances, it is claimed, very successfully. These pests, at the date of reporting, bad done vastly more at threatening than at execution; the cases being few in which thoy had as yet iu dieted serious injury. Whether they will or not, depends upon the con? dition of the weather and other exigen? cies, which no reporter can now fore? tell. The crop, on the whole, is still somewhat backward, though in many localities rapid growth iu July has brought it forward to the average ad? vancement for the season. Probabilities?For the South Atlantic States, South-westerly jrinds, partly cloudy weather and local coast rains.

The Jews and Lush Akin.?The Jewish Chronicle quotes tho Belfast Morniny News as noticing on moro than one occasion Mr. Burnett's letters to tho Jewish Chronicle iu aid of bis theory, that largo numbers of Jews settled in Ireland, that Jeremiah is. identical with the Ollam Fola, nnd tho Irish Corona? tion Stone in Westminster Abbey is really Jacob's Stone. Tho Belfast Morn? iny News adds, that an Euglish lady of raro learning and attainments, Mrs. Wilkes, has in the press a learned and curious work, urging the affinity of the llebrow and Celtic races. The journal adds, tbat there is no doubt as to au afiiuity between the old Irish language and alphabet aud some of tho Chaldean languages and alphabets-, llebrow or Phoenician. Tho cottage of Wm. Penu, in Phila? delphia, is used as a beer saloon. - Supernatural Guts.?From Mr. Bd. Hill, Deputy United States Marshal, who yesterday returned .from a visit to Olney, Biohland County, we learn some interesting facta connected with the re? cent manifestations of alleged superna? tural power by Mrs. Powell, wife of Dr. I. A. Powell, of Olney, who will be re? membered by many of our citizens as a prominent member of tho twenty seventh General Assembly. It appears that upward of n year ago Mrs. Powell declared herself possessed of superna? tural gifts, but being a lady of unusual refinement ffnd delicacy a manifestation of them was naturally repuguaut to her. More recently, however, ns she states, she was divinely instructed to put iu practice her power, aud claiming it to be entirely a heavenly gilt, she hesitated not to comply with what she considered a direct tnaudate of the Deity. Her power, according lo the report o! the citizens of Olney, many of whom fully accord to her miraculous attributes, is chiefly manifested in tho healing of the sick. This is reported to be accom? plished by the imposition ot hands, ac? companied by prayer aud repetition of Scripture, though "the cure is not always instantaneous, but occurs at the time Mrs. Powell states it will be accom? plished. It is farther stated that so great is the confidence in her power that handkerchiefs are sent her, und they, passing through her hands, are returned, aud effect tho cure of the sick persons sending them. Tho effect of these several munifeitations is said to ba depressing upon the health of Mrs. Powell, who continues them, however, as she believes, in obcdieuco to Divine direction. Naturally these circumstances create quite u commotion iu the vicinity, and even from places remote crowds arc I gathering to witness the cures. Mr. I Hill states that on Friday last 112 per? sons had called to see Mrs. Powell, I whose doors are now opon to all who desire her ministrations, which are, of course, rendered gratuitously. Among I those stated to bo cured by her are several prominent citizons at Olney woll ! known in this city. Tho entiro circum? stances are of that peculiar character ' hardly suseeptible of explanation, more especially as tho persons oonnected with them aro of such oharacter as to entirely preclude the suspicion of chicanery. It may bo added that the subject of these Divine revelations, as sho con? siders them, is not a believer in spiritual? ism, but a member in good standing of the Presbyterian communion. [Springfield Journal. The Imperialists.?A Western paper, discussing the probability of C:caari6m in the United States, thinks the steps of progression to a throne will be found, if found at all, in the following order: A third term for Gen. Grant; an elec? tion for ten years; an election for life; abolition of State Governments; the foundation of a permanent dynasty by popular vote, or what passes for such. The samo authority classifies the advo? cates of empiro in this wise: 1. The whites of the South. 2. The blacks of the South. 3. The Northern monopo? lists of all kinds, land-grabbers, subsidy grabbers, salary-grabbers and tariff grabbers. 1. The Federal office holders. Shocking Death.?Mr. James Mor? gan, a well known lumber morchant in Albany, Ga., hearing a loud noise in his barn a few nights ago, dressed him? self, and taking a kerosene lamp in his hand, went out to learn the cause. He remained so long that his wife became alarmed, aud -going ont herself to see what detained him, found the horses trampling him under their feet and the horses and stables in flames. After the fire had been extinguished, the body of Mr. Morgap, burned to a crisp, was re? covered. Serious Accident.?Joseph, twelve or thirteen years old, son of Mr. M. S. I Bailey, of Clinton, Laurens Couuty, [while engaged at some duty in his father's saw mill, a low days since, was caught in a band of some of tho ma? chinery, which drew him violently through a small aparture through which the baud passed, fracturing his left arm to such a degree that amputa? tion was necessary; and also breaking his leg just above the ankle.
