Washington, July 30.—Commissioner
Pleasanton decides that borrowed capital,
employed by bankers, is no longer sub
ject to taxat ion. It is estimated that this
decision will reduco the revenue receipts
$10,000,000 and will doubtless lead to
innumerable suits for reclamation. De
posits heretofore thus employed were
taxed fivo per cent.
It is known that since 1869, no propo
sition, direct or indirect, has been made
by the United States for tbo purchase of
Cuba.
Up to the latest hour the financial pol
icies of the Government was announced.
The Government will purchase a mil
lion of llonds each Wednesday and will
sell a million of gold on the first, third
and fifth and two millions on the secoud
and fourth Thursday of August—making
in all fivo millions of Bonds and seven
millions of gold.

of affairs in South Carolina. The gener

A bloody riot occurred at Ooldsboro
toilay. About fivo thousand negroes
arrived from Newhcrno and tho lower
counties, on an excursion train chartered
by the Republican Executive State Com-
mittco, to attend a mass mooting at which
Congressman Thomas, cx-Sonator Ab
bott, Marcus Erwin, and R. C. Badger
were to be tho speakers. There were
very few white people in town, aud many
of tho negroes catno into town. The
police arrested ono turbulent negro, and
while on the way to tho guard houso with
this prisoner, tho negroes rallied, aud
rescued him. Tho colored police fired
at the prisoner, who was recaptured, and
taken by tho police to the Exchange Ho
tel. About one thousand of tho negro
mob, with clubs and pistols, rallied to
the hotel, attempting another roscuo.
The riot commenced by the negroes
throwing brick boU at tho police, and
using clubs, when a cross-firing began
between the police and the mob. The
whito citizens forbear, but are now armed
for tho emergency. There is great ex-
eitemenL About thirty or more shots
wore fired. Threo or more whites were
hurt, one negro killed, and one colored
policeman killed and two wounded.
A committee of citizens, appointed
by Mayor Robinson, waited upon the
Republican leaders, and Mr. Stanley,
President of the A. A N. C. Railroad,
and requested that the trains and negroes
bo carried away. To this, Stanley re
plied, “that he would not carry them
away until ho was ready.” When told
that ho and Thomas would bo held re

Cincinnati, July 28.—They have a first-
class sensation near Gorman town, Ohio,
in tho shape of manifestations of spirits
at the house of Bonj. Stiver. Tho furni
ture is removed, milk crocks unset, eata
bles disturbed, and tho whole household
disarranged iu tho most extraordinary
manner. Eight members of tho family,
though not all residing together, appear
in an article in the Commercial this
morning, under oath, reciting the circum
stances with singular particularity. The
affiants are old citizens, and have tho
general respect of tho people of that
county.
Tho following is a specimen of the
sworn testimony of one of tho witnesses,
Benjamin F. Stiver: “The family Bible,
which was ou tho bureau, fell on the floor,
no ouo being within its reach at tho time.
Mother picked it up and laid it back, and
it fell again immediately after she had re
moved her hand from it. The balance of
the chairs, six or seven, commenced turn
ing sommersaults in the room, and tho
cradle turned over and father replaced it,
when it turned upside down again with
out further notice. I wont into tho bod
room and got my riflo and shot guu, and
took them out and fired thorn off, so as to
avoid danger, and when I got back I took
out the clock from tho bed-room, and
while on the porch heard the nicknacks,
toys, etc., about fifty iu number, swept
from the mantel-piece to the floor, a num
ber of which wero broken.
'No ono was in the room at tho time.
When I was taking tho nick-nacks out,
the light, which was on tho dough-tray
in the bed room, was thrown off to tho
floor aud put out. I took out the tray,
and while gone the beuch ou which the
tray wasjstanding was turned upside down
iu its place.
Wliilo wo wero carrying tho bureau
and cupboard from tho sitting-room to
the yard, we heard a noise in the bed
room; father went there, followed by
mother nnd the boy, and father saw tlio
guns, winch had been placed by mo un
der a chest after they were discharged,
moving away father under tho chest.—
He saw them move eight or ton inches.
The shovel, which probably produced
tho noiso, was moved a distance of threo
or four feet, and a crock, which contain
ed nails, was upset.
As father and mother and the little boy
were starting out of tho bed-room, the
boy remarked “that tho feather-bed was
moving, angling across tho bed. Mother
shoved it against the wall agaiu, and as
they turned to go out of the room tlio
feather-bed was hoisted away oft the bed
to tho middle of the floor, striking their
heels and falling upside down, with the
quilt accompanying. They then started
up stairs, tho little boy bohiud, aud os
lie passed a largo bn£ of flour standiug at
tho floot of tlio stnrway in the hall, he
remarked, touching it: “I iuess this will

It is known thut many officers who

hoard the hag fall off tho dlool on which
it had been standing, no one being near
at tho time. When we got down stairs
again into the sitting-room tho stool in
the hall where tho flour was, tumbled
into the sitting-room from the hall, a
distance of four or fivo feet.
We then heard somo noise in tho sloop-
ing room again, and father and mother
found ft stand, turned over, aud then,
when in tho kitchen, tho dining room
table turned over in its tracks, before
father’s and mother’s eyes, os quick as
lightning. On the porch the flower pots
wore also tumbled over.”
SUMMARY.
The Democrats of San Fraueisco aro
divided into threo parties on the local
nominations, but will probably compro
mise and unite.
The Court at Lyons has confirmed the
judgment of tho Marseilles courts-martial
upon tho insurgents tried by that body.

A large mectiug to-night at Mechanic's

out disturbance worthy of mention.—
Pinchback and others addressed the

and city administration. When the res
olutions were put, an anti-Warmouth man
moved to table them, but his motion was
voted down.
The President and family will remain
at Long Branch during the season. Tho
President bus abandoned his intended
trip to tho West, having been advised by
Generals Sheridan and tiherman, and
many others, that it is now too late iu tho
season fora satisfactory visit through tho
western country, the crops having all
been gathered and tho country being in a
bare condition. Ho has accordingly
concluded to postpone the trip until tlio
latter part of the spring of 1872.
The French government has given its
qualified assent to the Poston scheme for
the immigration of Communist prisoners,

persons aud those gnilly of crimes, who

ond, dangerous persona who aro to be
sent to the penal colony; and, tho third
