The Case of Jeffebson Davis.—The Nation
al Intelligencer is of opinion that it wiU be one
or two years before the Supreme Court
reaches the Davis case. In an article in Mon
day's issue upon the result at Richmond, it
uses the foUowing language:
“In the very novel and important issue
joined the Court appears to have divided,
Chief Justice Chase sustaining the motion to
quash, but his vote tied and offset by that of
Judge Underwood, so that the case is certi
fied to the United States Supreme Court for
its decision. According to the usual order of
causes it would take one or two years for
this cause to be reached. The very important
cause of the teshoath for suffrage in Missouri,
appealed by Gen. Frank Blair, has already
been pending for years before the Supreme
CourtT and still is not reached. We may,
therefore, assume that the case of Mr. Davis
in its present shape, will not be hurried either
here or at Richmond.”
New Orleans is exhilarated by the crop re
turns. The Times exultantly says: “Three
hundred thousand bales of cotton have been
received at our wharves since the opening of
the season. At the average rate this import
ought to produce thirty millions of dollars,
which is certainly a large sum, that ought to
give the present business season a good start.
At this rate we onght to receive over 500,000
bales by Christmas. Sugar; too, is coming in
very freely, and the crop promises to run up
to if not over„ one hundred thousand hogs
heads.”
Legal Tenders.—The outstanding circula
tion of legal tender notes is nearly $356,000,
000, and fractional currency $32,000,000;
total, $388,009,000; out of use as circulating
meiiinm, $126,000,000; total amount of aU
kinds outstanding, $565,000,000

A petition from prominent Radicals in
Virginia has been drawn up to he presented
to Congress, asking for a continuance of the
Freedmea’s Bureau in. that State.
A Great Invention or Discovery.—Hotues
Made Fireproof.
The new Theatre DeUo Logge, in Florence,
is now completed. All of the timber and
wood-work in that theatre was prepared by
the Borghi process; aU the coverings of the
seats and all the scenery were tims made non-
inflammable ; and, that no doubt might linger
as to the perfect safety of the building, two
days before it was opened to the pnblic some
inflammable material was carried on the
stage, and an attempt made to set the theatre
on fire, which ignominiously and totally
failed. The proprietor of the theatre invited
his friends to witness the experiment; the
stage was set with a drawing-room scene, the
wings and back being of ordinary scenery;
ami to this fire was applied, and eveiy one
left the stage. The flames spread quickly,
consumed the scenery which had not been
subject to Borghi's process, and then stopped
short and died out, leaving the prepared
scenery, the flies, the ropes and the stage un
scorched. No effluvia from the prepared Bub-
stances is perceptible even to the most fas
tidious nostrils, althongh night after night
the theatre has been crowded and the tem
perature has been high.—New York IVorld.
Democratic Tactics in Congress.—A Wash
ington letter to the Baltimore Gazette says:
I have great satisfaction in announcing the
fact that the members of the Democratic and
Conservative party in Congress have resolved
that they will not make fools of themselves in
the coming session of Congress. The mem
bers generally argue thus: The great people
of this great conntry have by a solemn vote
invested certain men with the power to do as
they please. Very well; let us see what they
wiU do. Give them a wide range. When
ever called npon we shaU conscientiously vote
upon propositions as they may come up.—
Beyond this no responsibility rests upon us,
and we shaU take care that no impediment is
placed in the way of a fair trial of the poUcy
of our opponents (God save the mark !) The
word seems to be “ Go ahead! who’s afeard V”
The some correspondent says:
In the mean time, I think it necessary to
apprise your readers, as a legitimate result of
“non-intervention" in things which don’t
concern us, that a most intimate radical rela
tionship has been hurst asunder by means
entirely outside of toadyism on the part of
Democratic statesmen. Contrary to all ex
pectation, the Man Friday of Grant hns sud
denly been thrown overboard. Mr. Wash
bume, notwithstanding what Yates may say,
is now scarcely npon speaking terms with
the “ coming man." Some attribute this dire
catastrophe primarily to Donnelly’s influence,
derived indirectly from the Fenian Brother
hood: others to the excessive egotism and
domineering demeanor. of this second War
wick. Be all this as it may, Schenck has had
sufficient power utterly to demolish the pre
tentions demands of the Hlinois member.
The Georgia Contested Seat in the
House.—The Washington correspondent of
the Baltimore Sun, under date of the 7th
inst., says:
Two interesting cases, embracing. some
features not hitherto brought to the attention
of Congress, were referred to the House com
mittee on elections to-day. These cases come
up respectively from the States of Goorgia
and Tennessee. In the former case Mr.
Christ}’ was elected to represent the sixth dis
trict in Congress, the election having been
held under the reconstruction laws. Gover
nor BuUock withheld the certificate of election
from C'hristv on the ground that he was dis
qualified by the fourteenth amendment to the
constitution, and gave it to John A Wimpey,
who had the next highest number of votes,
holding that as Mr. W. was qualified, he was
the legally olected representative. General
Meade, the commander of the military dis
trict, gave the certificate to Christ}-, and it
remains for the election committee to deter
mine which certificate is the proper one, and
also whether the Governor ot a Southern
State can disregard the clearly expressed wish
of a majority of voters in a district, and of
his own volition reject a repx-esentative be
cause in his judgment he is not qnalified.
From Mexico.—The overflow of the Rio
Seco has caused that river to return to its an
cient bed. The towns of Comaticalisco and
Parosa are entirely destroyed, and the towns
of Cardenas and Canauaca have suffered
greatly. The warehouses in San Juan and
Bautista were under water, and boats were
navigating the streets. The coinage of new
national specie has been commenced in San
Luis Potosi. The inhabitants of the State of
Leon are again in arms. Tulancingo has
been attacked, and two soldiers killed. Earth
quakes continue in Iturbide.
As an instance of the difficulty of trans
ferring delicate shades of meaning in trans
lating one language into another, may be
mentioned the oft quoted line, ‘ ‘ Frailty, thy
name is woman,” which a Frenchman ren
dered, “ Mademoiselle Frailty is the name of
the lady ! ” While a German, who attempted
Coleridge’s “ Ancient Mariner,” could give it
no better title in his own tongue than “ The
Old Sailor.”
Broke Jail.—On Thursday night last, the
prisoners incarcerated in one wing of the
Marion County (Fla.) jail, battered down the
door and made their escape, carrying with
them the blankets newly furnished by the
Sheriff of said county.—Ocala Banner.
Said a negro tax-collector to a white man
in Alabama: “How de debel does you white
folks s’pose we cnHud people is gwme to live
ef you doesn’t pay your taxes?”
