who, on delivering it, said that he had
had a conversation with President
Graut, vrho propbsed as a me is are of

sterling exchange and issue le^il tender
notes at the rate of ?8,000,000 or ?1,030,
000 a week if uecessury. We further
understand that an informal meeting of
some influential bank Presidents wus
heldj yesterday afternoon, in the parlor
of the Merchants' Buuk, and the state?
ment, us above made, was repeated, the
letter being held up to tbo.->o present,

-its fourth editorial (financial article)
thai at thorequost of John 13. Willums,
President of the Metropolitan National
Bank, aud other bank ofliArs, a geuerui
meeting of tbo Clearing House Associa?
tion has been called for to morrow, at 1

the proposition of President Graut for
tbe financial relief, as made in tbo re?
cent interview of o new York merchuct
with tbo President, nnd also in tbe let?
ter of tho President to Mr. Williams.
The special correspondent of the Posl,
at Washington, says there is the highest
official authority for denying the re?
ports that the President.hus determined
to do aB above stated. Tho Post says a
private ^espafoh from their correspond
ont-says this high authority is Seoretury
Richardson aud Goneral Baboook, and
it i's thus particular in rehearsing the
facts, with names and details, as its
"Washington spcoiul raises a qu< stiou of

To-day the' father of Stokes testified 1

New York, Octobor23.?The Tribune,
in au article on tbo impenchmout, of
Mr. Shanks, one of its attucbees, for
contempt of court, in Brooklyn, says:
"For all it says, the Tribune holds itself
responsible. We believe iu libel salts.

disaster."
Upon the resumption of the Stokes
trial, to-day, Rufus Andrews deposed
that Stokes came to consult him before
tho shooting, and gave him a retainer.
He was theu nervous and excited, and
witness thought ho was uot sane. The
District Attorney asked witness if he
had any other reason for thinking the
prisoner insane, beyond the fact that he
(Stokes) gave him (Williams) a retainer,
and made hint bis counsel. [Laughter.]
Shanks, city editor of the Tribune, who
was brought from Brooklyn on a writ
of habeas corpus, to-day, stated that
Stokes had expressed to him fears that
Fisk would take his life. Other wit?
nesses testified to hearing Stokes ex?
press fears that Fisk or his emiesaries
would kill him.
A reporter, last eveniug, ascertained
from Mr. Williams, President of tho
Metropolitan National Bank, that the
President, in his letter to Williams,
merely acknowledged the receipt of ono
from that gentleman, und expressed his
anxious desire to relievo the monetary
panio. He then asks tiie question, why
can not. the banks c<>me together, and
runks some arrangement for the relief of
the merchants and public, adding that
ho will do all in hiv power to ussist
thorn; This is said to be the whole sub
stance of the letter.

Washington, October 23.?Tho Pre?
sident, having neAu-ly leo'ovorod from his
tucknesA, which kept hirn from his office
yesterday, received, to day, u large
uumber of visitor-.. Ou being asked by
a friend as to the e ou touts of his receut
letter to Mr. Williams, he said, he
therein repeated a former remark,
numely, that iu addition to what had
already beeu dono by the Government,
the ouly. wu} of n-iiof was .'or tho Go?
vernment to buy exchange.' But ex
change could not now be bought, as the
Government has no use for it, having
already purchased ouoiyjh on London,
for the Navy aud.State Departments,- to
answer present purposes. There is no
Intention, he further remarked, to draw
on t he 844,000,000 reserve, except to
meet the current expeuses of the Go?
vernment. The money vviil be used for
no other purpose. It would seem, from
further couvorsution with tho President,
that the letter iu question was merely
suggestive, without asserting uuy inten?
tion of positive oilioial action.

0 I'empob.v, O Mores!?Ou Saturday
afternoon last we witnessed ou tbe
streets of Cbester a sight which vre had
thought never to have seen. We suw a
respectable white lady being dragged to
j.iii by a tiegro constable for au alleged
contempt r>t a negro court. The lady
was Mrs. William M. Bobius. She had
beou arrested ou a warrant issued by B.
P. Michael, a negro Trial Justice, upon
the OJtnpluiut of one Nathan McAliley,
(mother negro, that she bad made nu
assault upou him. While the bond for
her appearance for trial was being pre?
pared. Mis. Bobius remarked that she
wa? done with n;ggers ou Ler planta?
tion; that ihey gave her .?0 much trun
b!e that she did uoi intend to have auj
more of them about her. At this
Michael flaw into a rage, accused her ot
having insulted him, and ordered that
she should be confined in the commou
jaii of tin- Couuty tor twelve hums foi
a contempt of his court. In vain did
she disclaim having said a word about
the court; in vain did she deny any pur?
pose to insult the Trial Justice; in vain
her counsel, General Walker, assured
the Trial Justice that the remark bad uo
reference to either him or his court; tbe
commitment was written out, placed iu
the bauds of Isotu Grier, a negro, and
orders given to him to carry the pri?
soner to jail. The poor wotnuu was led
olT, terror-stricken at the idea of being
iueare. rated in j ill. ut.d at the unparal?
leled outrage that was being perpe?
trated upon her; and this manifestation*
of fear on tier part gave occasion to a
crowd of savage, and fiendish negro
women to gather around the eoustable
and exuit in the spectacle! Tho hus?
band of the unfortunate ludy could
think of nothing else lo do than to ruu
to Judge Mackey for nsdatauee. The
Judge came upon the s-cene, and by
6ome means induced Michael to counter?
mand h;e order und discharge tbe pii
soiier. Phis is tue plain, unvarnished
story. We will not trust ourself to
make any comments; but will leave it
fo.- every white man who reads it to in?
dulge in such reflections us the bare re?
cital of the facts may etil up in his
breast.? Chaster AV/ior/er.

The immigration movemi ui is one
that is always watched with interest,
especially the relative numbers of our
new-comers who arrive from the British
islands and Germany. During tbe year
ending June 30, lt>72, thu British
islands sent us 166,843 emigrants, und
Germauy 149,071. Compared with the
previous year, this was an increase of
13,817 from the former, and 8,502
from tbe latter. Formerly Ireland sent
by far the largest numbers of any sin
gio country, but during tue year just
