The Russian troops, notwithstanding their hard fighting, have not received their addi tional war money above their regular pay, and according to the London Guardian this fact shows that Russia is laboring under financial diflienltics, as she is in twelve mil lions arrearage to the Roumanian railroads. Secretary Evarts is quoted as saying, al luding to the alleged outrage on the Ameri can flag committed by a Spanish man-of- war, that “while ho was sensible of the friendly relations between the two govern ments, he did not intend to allow any out rage on our flag.” A terrible casualty happened yesterday on the occasion of the oelebration of the Bath and West of England societies. The Wed- combe suspension bridge, upon which were nearly two hundred people, fell. Twenty dead bodies have been recovered, and many are still missing. Montenegro has at last gone into the fight, the Turkish attack of Montenegrin territory having commenced yesterday. Up to noon all the assaults of the Turks were repulsed with heavy loss, and it is stated that five hundred Turks have been killed. Mr. Miller, the owner of the bonded ware houses in New York, has made some dam aging disclosures before the investigating committee. He is satisfied that millions of dollars hare been abstracted from the treas ury through the mean3 of damage allow ance. Mr. Hayes has advised Collector King, of the New Orleans Custom House, that changes in the appointment of subordinate officers of that institution are not desirable until after the investigation now in pro gress. The ease of the State of New York vs. Peter B. Sweeney is in process of settle ment, and it is stated Jhat four hundred thousand dollars will be paid by the estate of James M. Sweeney, a deceased brother of P. B. Sweeney. The National Capital Insurance Company or New Haven has transferred its half million building to the Treasurer of the United States, to be held ag security tor the claims of its bondholders. The Khedive has intimated to the Porte that it the Porte determines to refnse the Russiau nary the right to pass through the Suez canai it must send men-of-war to de lead the entrances. Secretary Evarts has ordered an investi gation into an alleged outrage upon the American flag committed by a Spanish man- of-war in boarding an American whaling schooner. The assumption of the command of the army by the Czir is said to be chiefly be cause tbe Grand Duke Nicholas and his chief of staff frequently disagree. It is positively stated that Servia has made complete preparations to oommence hostilities as soon as tbe Russians have crossed the Danube. Coant Scboavaloff, the Russian Ambassa dor, has arrived at Berlin. He is en route to Loudon, which is rather a significant fact. The South Carolina Legislature hag adop ted the report of the conference committee on the appropriation bill, and tbe financial dead-lock is ended. The Pope has conferred tho grand cross or the Order of Pius IX. on President MacMahon and Count Lanscb, the Anstrian Envoy. Passenger rates from Chicago to Philadel phia have been reduced to fourteen dollars, and from Chicago to Baltimore to thirteen dollars and fifty cents. The health of the Russian army is said to be sufleriDg in consequence of the great heat prevailing. A state of siege will be proclaimed in Bucharest on tbe arrival of tbe Czar, and a Russian town commander will be appointed. Tho Sonth Carolina Legislature has de clared tho seat of Judge R. B. Carpenter vacant. An eruption of UonDt Vesuvius is threat ened, the volcano showing Bigns of unusual agitation. Cable dispatches report the arrival of the Czar at headquarters at Ploiesta. The Crops. The season has arrived when there is n very general desire for reliable infor mation in regard to the crop prospect. Our friends throughout Georgia and Florida will oonfer a favor by communi cating to us promptly such information. We shall be pleased to receive letters ad vising us of the present condition and prospoct of the cotton and provision crops. Boutwell came to the front on deco ration day in Boston, with a speech which was a reiteration of the old bloody-shirt notions of his party. He says he is “nn- ablo to see any promise of amendment in the South,” and that “there is no way of educating the South in self government except by governing it with the sword." It is, says the New Orleans Timet, a com fort to know that there is no possible chance for him ever to get out of his grocery at Groton again. The Ragged School Union oi London has one hundred and fifty-'wo school buildings, in which twenty-eight thou sand tatterdemalion little Londoners are taught the rudiments of learning. The British child is attracted by Buch a name, •but the American boy of the street, how ever torn his trousers or sleeveless his jacket, would go without an educa ion all his life rather than go in quest of it to a place over whose door was the sign “Rag ged School.” Mb. Tilkem Going to Europe.—The New York ErpTCM of Saturday evening says: “The Republicans need not be alarmed about Governor Tilden’s quo warranto for the next two or three' months at least. He is going to England early in July, and will remain there as long as he wants to, bnt will no doubt return in sea son for Congress and the Snpreme Court, if they so desire to inquire into the elec toral laws, the Electoral Commission,etc.” The New Orleans Timet thinks the na tion may make itself easy about General Grant on his travels. He is not going to make any city mad by refusing its hospi talities. There'll be no war or complica tions on Grant's aooouni. Savannah and Her Creditors. Elsewhere will be found published the proceedings of the meeting held yester day, at the Exchange, for the purpose of effecting an arrangement between tbe bond holders and the authorities of the city. $1,387,700 of the city indebtedness was represented, but nothing definite was ac complished beyond the appointment of a committee of seven bondholders, who were charged to make an “examination of the banded indebtedness of the oity, and confer with the City Council of Sa vannah, with a view of ascertaining whether any arrangement can be arrived at as to the said in debtedness, and that they report, at such time as they may deem advisable, to a general meeting of the said bondholders, to be held in the city of Savannah.” As it is believed that the conference, last alluded to herein, will not be held until about tbe first of November next, tbe matter will probably be held in abeyance until that time. It is unfortunate that the im pression has gotten abroad that the city intended to repudiate part of her debt. Such is not, by any means, the case. She has had no idea of repudiation. True, there are many ex tenuating circumstances to be considered in connection with her indebtedness. Shrinkage in values, business depres sion, and tbe many obstacles unex pectedly thrown in the way of meet ing her obligations, have made her burdens much heavier to be borne than she ever anticipated. For these reasons it was desirable that any arrangement consistent with honor, which could light en her burdens, and make her obligations more easily met, should be effected; but it has never been the wish of any of our citizens that any portion of this debt should be deliberately repudiated. It is to be hoped that the idea of repudiation will be entirely done away with before tbe next conference is held, and that both parties may fully understand each other, in order that a settlement satisfac tory to all concerned, may more readily be brought about. Radical Opposition to the Convention. Our Atlanta correspondent informs us that extraordinary efforts are being made in that city to defeat the convention movement, for which purpose an anti convention ticket baa been nominated. We are not surprised that tbe Radical leaders, Akerinan, Bryant, Blodgett, Conley *fc Co., should oppose the will of the people, in the hope, as they intimate in tbe circulars with which they are flood ing the State, of causing a division among the Democratsand thus resuscitating their defunct faction. It is but natural that these corrupt and unscrupulous adven turers who so long fattened on the spoils of office and reveled in the plunder of the taxpayers of Georgia, should seek to de feat a convention, the object of which will be to restore honest economical State gov ernment, and to wipe out tbe last vestige of Radical usurpation, fraud and misrule. It is but natural that men who aided in imposing on a disfranchised and plunderod people a constitutional insult and mockery, should resort to falsehocd and misrepresentation to delude tbe unsuspecting, and appeal to tbe prejudices of the ignorant and vicious in their efforts to perpetuate their work. But we must confess that we are sur prised that any portion of the people of Atlanta should be induced to follow their lead. If, as her people seem to think, Atlanta has a special interest in volved in this convention question, it would seem not the surest way to promote that interest for any con siderable portion cf her citiz ‘as to make common cause with an od, us Radical ring in opposition to a conv n- tion. The opposition of Atlanta will uot prevent the holding of the convention, though it may sug s ect to that body that there are interests of the people that ought not to be disregarded in deft recce to tbe wishes of tbe people of that flourish ing city. Instead of opposing and voting against the convention to frame a no * constitution for Georgia, the people of Atlanta should give the convention ihcir unanimous endorsement, and greet the body with a cordial and kindly welcome. While our citizens are enjoying the de lightfully cool weather and balmy atmos phere of the season, they can sympathize with the good people of Gotham, who are suffering from a complication of evils, intense heat ana foal atmosphere. Sun day last was a suffocating aay in tha great Northern metropolis, the thermometer at noon standing at 85, and the average temperature o* ife? day being 70,' de grees. The World says, “The prince of the powers of the air seems to be having it all his own way in this unhappy city just now. There must be laws and ordinance*, vs suppose, forbidding those who boil bones or refine petroleum from »o pursuing their dread ful trades ag to poison the atmosphere for miles around. But no man regards them, and on these sultry summer days ,«nd nights the inhabitants of half the area of New York are forced to elept be tween stifling with heat in closed rooms, or breathing diseases from breezes laden with odors of the charnel and the pit. The nuisance is intolerable, and for that reason we presume to.be enduted by the chicken-hearted oitiztn. at this bulldozed metropolis. ” Ten Seven-fees Years Locusts.—The locust which made its last appearance in I860 has now renewed his career. Some days ago the New York World printed an account of the first appearance of tbe locusts in Rensselaer oounty in that State. Within a day or two they have appeared in great force in New Jersey, within twenty miles of New York oity. The World says they have done much mis. ohief, bnt they have not yet committed ravages so extensive as to become a public calamity. It is by no means certain that they will do so, but farmers and gardeners may well feel uneasy until the insects bavo actually and finally de parted. Paris green is said to be the most effective prophylactic against the pests which has yet been discovered. It is said that B. F. Whittsmore, the South Carolina Representative who was driven out of Congress for gelling a cadet ship, is to be called upon to answer the charge of stealing some thousands of dollars voted by tbe South Carolina Leg islature to pay for an oil painting of the late Senator Charles Sumner, which w.9 to be placed in the State capitol at Co lumbia. Whittemore, who had been for some time a member of tho South Caro lina Legislature, but resigned awhile ago, is said to be living in retirement in Mass*, aetts. The Discovery of Anesthesia. Anaesthesia, or the state of insensi bility produced by the inhalation of chlo roform and other similar agents, is, com paratively speaking, a modern disoovery, its use by the medioal fraternity to deaden pain in difficult surgical operations hav ing been adopted, at the ontside, not more than thirty-five years ago. Yet so great have been the benefits derived from it to suffering humanity, that a monu ment has been erected in Boston to its discoverer, though no man is designated thereon. There are four persons promi nently mentioned as entitled to the honor. They are Dr. Crawford W. Long, at pres ent of Athens, Georgia, Dr. Horace Wells, of Hartford, Vermont, W. T. G. Morton and Charles T. Jackson of Boston, the last three of which worked with great eagerness to secure to themselves not only the honor, but also such material and substantial lecognition as could be obtainod from a liberal donation of money to them, by Congress, for their labors. The first named, and by far the most modest of all, Dr. Long, seems to be the one really entitled to the credit and ad vantage to be derived therefrom. This is shown by a work prepared by Dr. J. Marion Simms, of New York, entitled “The Disoovery of Anaesthesia." In this pamphlet the author says that as far back as in 171M), we were on the eve of this discovery, and in 1800 it was known that the inhalation of nitrous ox ide gas would produce a peculiar intoxi cation, which allayed headache aud other minor pains. That for more than fifty years past the inhalation of sulphuric ether has been practiced by the students of New England colleges as an excitant, and that forty-five years ago the inhala tion of ether was common in some parts of Georgia. It was the practice of inhal ing ether as an excitant which brought about Dr. Long’s discovery. Dr. P. A. Wilhite, now of Anderson, South Caro lina, when a boy in Georgia, knew of the intoxicating effect of ether, and on one occasion caused a little negro boy to inhale some of it, never imagining that harm could come from it. Much to his horror, the boy became perfectly senseless. A physician was sent for, and resusoitated the lad, who had remained utterly unconscious for over an hour. This result stopped this species of amuse ment in that neighborhood pretty ef fectually ; but afterwards, when Wil hite became a pupil of Dr. Long, he found that gentleman inter ested in the subject of aumsthesia, and informed him of his experience with the boy. This encouraged Dr. Long to proceed with his experiments, and de termined him to try the effect of ether in surgery at the first favorable opportu nity. On the 30th of March, 1842, he adciiniHtered ether on a towel to Mr. James M. Venable, from whose neck he removed two tumors with complete suc- oess and without any pain to the patient. On the Gih of June, 1842, he again re moved another small tumor from the same person under the same circum stances and with like success. On the 3i cf July, 1842, he amputated the toe of a negro boy, Jack, bolo: giDg to a Mrs. Hemphill, the operation becg painless.- On the 9th of Sep tember, 1843, he anesthetized a Mrs. Mary Vincent, and, without pain to her, removed three small tumors from her head, aud on the 8th of January, la45, he am putated two fiugers for a uegro boy whom he had previously etherized. All these operations were perfect successes. Yet, Dr. LoDg, being only a country physician in what was then a section little known, did not attempt, at that time, to make his great discovery public though his operations were well known to his neigh bors, many of whom are still living. In 1844, two years after Dr. Locg'e first experiment, Dr. Wtlls demonstrated tho principle of anaes thesia by the use of nitrons oxide gas, and subsequently Drg. Morton and Jackson both used anaesthesia in their practice, and all three of these latter named laid claim to its discovery, Dr. Morton applying to Congress to reward him for his services to mankind. All of them, however, acknowledged Dr. Long's priority in the use of ether, but claimed that they were entitled to the credit for priority of publication. The author of the pamphlet suggests that tbe names of Long, Weils, Morton and Jackson all he inscribed op the Boston col umn ; and states that Georgia will, at no distant day,erect, at its capitol or its uni- veisity, a statue of Long, who, he says, “was unquestionably the first discoverer of amesthesia.’.' Probably the general reader will not feel any great amount of interest in the subject here discussed. Nevertheless it is a subject tyhich ought to interest every man who has teetb, and who is so unfortu nate as to have them occasionally extract ed. Certainly, if any material benefit is to be derived from this discovery, the Georgia physician ought to enjoy it. Dr. Long is a poor man, who lost his all by our late civil war, and now, in his old age, has to work very hard to make a support for himself and family. So highly is his discovery thought of by the medical profession, that Dr. Simms say a further regarding it: “Vaccination is, perhaps, the greatest boon ever conferred by science on hu manity. Amesthesia is the next. Eng land gave us one, America the other. England recognized the labors of Jt-nner, not, however, in a spanner commensurate with the magnitude of his work. America should r.cognize the labors of Long, Well.-, Morton and Jackson, if not in a manner »ommen,‘> , 'rate with the value of the work, at least to such on ef tent as to relieve the necessities of their several families, thereby proving that re publics are not always ungrateful. Government aid, voluntarily ten dered at this time, would be acceptable to all of them, for they are all really in need of it. Each of these families ought to receive at least one hun dred thousand dollars,” and he proposes that the whole medical profession North, South, East and West unite in asking Congress to appropriate this sum as “an ana-sthesia fund,” to be divided equally between the families of these physicians. If any step in this direction is taken and carried on successfully, our fellow citizen of Georgia should, as he doubtless will, receive his due reward iu honor and money for the work he has performed (as Dr. Simms expresses it) “in the causes of science and humanity.” It is reported in London that arrange ments are almost completed for tbe pur chase by the Queen from Colonel Farquharson, Invercauld, of the forest of Ballochfine, which adjoins the estate of Balmoral. The forest is on the estate of Invercauld, and comprises within its bounds the largest area of natural grown Scotch firs in Scotland. It is uneqnailed for the size, beauty and symmetry of the trees. Ballochfine has been held by the Queen on lease for a number of years at an annual rent of £15,000 sterling.

The Presidential chair is not s bed of roses at any time: bnt when it is unjustly and fraudulently occupied, the one who so fills it must expect, under the laws of compensation, to find it unusually rough and thorny. Certainly this is Mr. Hayes’ experienoe. He bad hardly placed him self in Mr. Tilden’s seat before James G. Blaine, the bully from Maine, (having entirely recovered from his sunstroke,) endeavored to stir np a hornet's nest aboul him, openly declaring that he mutt recognize the Radical carpet-bag gov ernment of Louisiana, since the same identical returning board which coanted him in, counted in also Mr. Packard, and if the Utter held his place by a fraudu lent title, that of Rutherford B. Hayes, styling himself President of tbe United States, was equally fraudulent. However, though every Radical in the United States knew that Bully Biaine spoke truth, yet it was not considered politic for that truth to be uttered, or if uttered, confessed, so a large number of leading spirits in tbe party sustained the de facto, who was thereby enabled to triumph for a season, much to the discomfiture of the bully. But the class of men of which the Maine Senator is a representative are evidently scotched, not killed. Little things are constantly occurring to show that when their opportunity arrives they intend to renew the war upon His Fraudulency, and when it does break oat agsin that arch-fiend Beast Benjamin Butler pro poses to take an active hand. His recent letter to Wayne MacVeigh, old Simon Cameron's son in-law, shows that the spirit of venom is working within him, for, in that, he not only pitches savagely into MacVeigh for the part he took in bringing about Packard’s down fall, but be hits the gentleman at present occupying the White House many a blow, not the less severe because below the belt. The telegraph of yesterday brings in formation of another item of wralh against the administration which theBaast is nursing to keep warm. He mentioned to a reporter, that when he was in com mand of the Department of tbe Gulf he bad with him a surgeon who died while “laboring for his country.” This snrgeou left a boy who now desires to enter the Naval Academy at Annapolis. Butler having delightful recollections of those days when he was reaping his harvest of silver spoons, felt favorably disposed to- wards the son of a man who was theD associated with him and tried to secure the appointment, but Hayes showed the Massachusetts statesman the cold should er and refused to make it. This has ex cited the deadly ire of the Beast, who is now evidently pieparing for a dreadful spriug in which he hopes to wreak his vengeance to the utmost, aud demolish His Fraudulency at one fell stroke. Viewing the matter from evory stand point, the prospects for Mr. Hsyes hav ing a peaceful and easy time are by no means bright. He is literally surrounded by a swarm of bees—Beast Benjamin Bul- ler and Bully Biaine—and if be doesn't keep a sharp look out they will sting him to death. In the fight which will ensue, the majority of the voters of the country, who elected Hon. Samuel J. Tilden, will look on' with feelings very much akin to thos. of the old woman whose husband was engaged in a contest with the bear; they won’t oaro which side whips. No matter how It ends, whether the B’s kill Hayes, or Hayes kills the B’s, or, as is most probable, they each kill the other, every way will make the country’s gaiD. BY TELR1PB HE M0KX1NG NEWS.

The announcement that Gen. Grant has betn presented with the freedom of the city of London iu a gold box, has doubt- less provoked curiosity as to tho meaning of ibis ceremonial. It has long b en the custom of the city to offer tho warrant of their franchise to eminent personages whom they desired to honor. The pro cess is for the citizens to vote to bestow this warrant. The personage to be hon ored is then notified, and upon some con venient public occasion he is expected to appear before the City Chamberlain. General Grant will be duly brought into tbe presence of this functionary; the clerk and officers of tne treasury will put their names down witn his in the proper book as his “oompurgators,” makiDg themselves responsible for his good citizenship; the Chamber lain will administer to him the oath of fidelity, shake hands with him and give him in a gold box a slip of parchment warranting to him, and to his children dwelling within seven utiles of the city, tbe franchise cf a freeman of London. Under this franchise General Grant vyill be at liberty to carry on any trade within the limits of the city of London—a tanyard for instance, or a wood-yard, a whisky distillery, or a stone quarry—without being taxed at tbe gates on the goods be brings in ; he will be exempted also from compulsory service in the Briti h army or navy. If he elects to live within the city limits, ho will be free from tolls and customs throughout all England aud parts of the sea ; and his children being left orphans will have the right to become wards of the city and to put their property for safe keeping into the city treasury. He will also have the right to hunt in the connty of Middlesex. London, Jane 6.—Tho Turkish attack on Montenegro from the Albanian aide has commenced. Ali Saib with tbe whole of bis forces nas advanced from Spnz np tbe Seta valley, the object being to reach Danilograd. The Montenegrins met the attack on tiie hill oi Maljat, and the fighting is still raging. Up to noon the Turkish assaults hare been repulsed and fire hundred Turks have been killed. The Montenegrins fight against enormous odds. There are 35,000 re;niars and irregulars against them on this side alone. The Guardiant Vienna dispatch says: “Since tbe commencement of the great heat the health of the Russian army has became worse. Financial difficulties are apparent, and for the last fortnight the troops have not received tho additional war money above their regular "pay.” The Czar takes command of the army cbieily because the Grand Duke Nicholas and bis chief of staff; Gen. Neporoitechitzky, frequently disagree. After the Czir’e arrival a state of siege will be proclaimed at Buchtrsst an 1 a Rus sian town commander will be appointed. The Guardian's Constantinople dispatch says: “By tbe order of the Minister of War the local journals are forbidden to pub lish any matter relating to tbe war.” Vienna, June G.—The opinion gains ground that the Russians will Dot cross tbe Danube. Success in Asia is relied on as tbe lever to a peace satisfactory to Russia’s idea of an honorable retreat from the war. New Yoke, June 6.—Cable specials report the Czar’s arrival at headquarters. London, June 6 The weather in Rouma- nia has turned very hot and sickness is in creasing. Russian finances are in trouble here. She is twelve millions of francs in arrears to the Ronmaman railroads. A large number of special police have pre ceded tbe Czar on the way to Bucharest. A special to tbe Hews from Pesth states that despite all denials it is positively as serted that Servia has made complete preparations to commence hostilities uear Akpolankt aud Altnisch as soon as the Rus sians have orossed the Danube. Berlin, June 6.—The Taste intimates that a diplomatic conference may be held at Bucharest duriug the sojourn of theCzir. The semi-official jonrnal, adverting to the peace rumors, says diplomacy had better not pronounce in favor of any definite plan for the termination of the war nntil decis ive events have occurred on the battlefield. Tbe terms of peace must depend on the course of tbe war. London, June 6.—The Czar arrived at Ploiesti last night. Count fichouvaloff, the Russian Ambassa dor here, arrived at Berlin to-day. He will reach London on Friday. London, June 6.—An official report has been received at Constantinople to-day from the Governor of Herzegovinians,which con firms tbe reported defeat of the Moutene. grins and Herzegovina on tbe 4th instant in the defiles of Kristaes, with heavy loss, by Suleiman Pasha. [Note.—The Ecening Standard's Pesth special dispatch is con firmatory of the Turkish account of this fight.] The Czar, accompanied by Prince Gort- sch&koff, Baron Jomiorl and Privy Coun cillor Hamburger, of the Foreign Office, ar rived at Ploiesti to-night, aud not last night as previously reported. The Czar met with an enthusiastic reception. Constantinople, June 6.—Tne Khedive has intimated to the Porte that, in view of Earl Derby’s dispatch to Lord Lyons, tbe British Ambassador at Paris, wbich was laid on the table of the House of Commons yesterday, if tbe Porte determines to refnse tbe Russian navy tbe right to pass through tbe Suez canal, it must send men- of-war to defend its entrances.

A special dispatch from Constantinople to the Journal Desbats asserts that one thousand A bschasians hare bean surprised and ent to pieces by tbe Russians. London, May 6—Perplexing contradic tions relative to Ah Saib's operations on tbe frontier of Montenegro continue to be received. Tbe Vienna Poldical Correspondence, usually well informed, publishes a special from Catlaro, stating that AU Saib was de feated at Maljat, with a loss of 700 men. A Ragnsa telegram supports this view. Ali 8aib on the other hand has telegraphed to Constantinople a most circumstantial account of his success, according to which be bas occupied the heights commanding Danilograd. oat at New Orleans in aid of the Caban in- ■nrrection and Secretary Evar's bas ordered an investigation of tho matter. If tbe statement is correct Evarts will endeavor to have the persons engaged in the project ar rested and punished. It is learned at tbe State Department that tbe obange of ministers at Italy and Portu gal have not been under consideration.

Tbe Widcombe suspension bridge fell and abjut a hundred persons were precipitated thir.y feet into tbe river Avon. Eight of the dead were recovered aud it is feared that others havo perished. Many were injured. Another account rep resents the disaster as much more serious. Later advices from Bath say that twenty bodies have teen recovered and several are still missing. Nearly two hundred people wero on the bridge when it fell. The Bath bridge was wooden and of light construction, narrow, and about thirty feet long, between thirty and forty feet above the river Avon, resting upon posts morticed into stone work at either end and without a centre support. The bridge snapped iu the centre. The two ends were wrenched clean from the sides, and the whole mass with the people was plunged into the middle of the stream whioh was about seven feet deep. Boats from the jhore were immediately at work rescuing tho living and searching for the dead. About twelve persons were killed and fifty-one injured, some fatally. FOB THE BENEFIT OF POLICY HOLDERS.

A committee of laborers called npon several prominent merchants in this city yesterday for advice, and were told to resume work as soon as possible at tbe best compromise offered by the railroad officials. At a meeting this morning it was decided to resume work at the rate of fourteen Cents per bonr, After bearing the report of the committee tbe men immediately resumed jtonsl indications that tbe tide of emigra tion which bo; so !on 8 0'jved Westward, is now setting towards Booth, . A Monument to Gen. Lee.—The Rob ert E. Lee Monumental Association of New Orleans has succeeded in obtaining fnnds nearly sufficient to erect a monu ment in that oity to tbe memory of that illustrious General. It is proposed to erect the monument in Tivoli circle, which is the centre of the city, and the moot prominent and conspicuous place. Wliot is Moderate Drinking I The advouates of total abstinence from intoxicating liquors are wont to oondemu even a moderate use of stimulating drinks, on tbe ground that “moderate drinking is the parent of excessive drink ing." The London Lancet questions the correctness of this proposition, bat in its negative definition of wbat is meant by “moderate drinking the votaries of Bacchm; will find very little comfort. “The man,” says the Lancet, “who be gins the day with a ‘soda and brandy’ has very little respect for his constitution, and, if he does not alter his habits, they will alter his health. Odd glasses of beer and glasses of spirit in a forenoon do not come within the range of moderate drinking. That is not moderate drinking which adds fifteen or twenty beats to the pulse, or which flushes the face. Finally, all casual drinking is bad, presumably, and not moderate drinking. The system will not receive food merely as a matter of conviviality at all sorts of hours. Still less will it reosive with im punity drink in this way. Drinking which disturbs sleep, either by making it heavy or driving it away, is not moderate. Moderate drinking is that which consists with a clean tongue, a good appetite, a slow pulse, a cool skin, a clear head, a steady hand, good walking power and light, refreshing sleep. It is associated with meals, and is entirely subordinated to more convenient and less objection- able forms of food. That such drinking produces drunkenness has yet to be proved, as it has yet to be proved to be essential to health.” The New Orleans Custom House. CHANGES NOT AT PRESENT SIRABLE. DE [By Telegraph to tho Morning News.) Sample Merchants in'Virginia.—The Alexandria GatelL says that the Auditor of Publlo Acoounts of the State of Vir ginia has decided that under the Moffett liquor bill sample merchants selling liquor by aample throughout the State have only to pay the regular license tax of $150 re quired from the resident merot.ants, and no more. This deoision makes a differ ence of from $200 to $400 in favor of the non-resident sample merchants. Washington, June 6.—Butler has written a diffuse column to MacVeigh denying cer- t tin assertions attributed to him by Mac- Veigh. Butler says: “On the oontrary, I was told that although tbe money was prom ised as a bribe for the desertion, tbe poor fellows did not get it, but were required fur ther to vote for Spoff >rd as Senator before they could get even what was due them. N iw I do not know this fact, but hope and believe tbe Senate will ascertain it ou the investigation in the contest for the Senator’s seat.” LAn extract.] “I rea<^ in your letter that you say Whar ton did not manage or transact any kind of bnsieess for me. Certainly not, bless vonr seal 1 You do not call such tricks as these business, do you! They are not bnsiDess, even if you should get that for eign mission for doing them, which I hope you will. You further aay Wharton was a friend of Packard's. All'the better instru ment therefor to get Packard's friends away from him. It was well done, and does credit toyour training.” j Another extract.] “Every one has his own taste in choosing bis war to acquire money, bnt if I were obliged to oboose one of two ways, either to appropriate it as a military oomtnand- ant or to marry into a family where I was neither wauted nor by which I should be re spected, to get money to spare, I certainly should choose the former, strange as yon may think it, because at least I should have the money, after having committed a dis reputable act to get it, and would not be liable to be disappointed as I might be alter I bad waited so long for dead men’s shoes by tbe other method.” Collector King has a sent number of nomi nations here for subordinate places in tbe New Orleans custom house, bat has been advised that changes are not desirable nntil after the investigation. T^e Secretary of State has telegraphed, through the Departments of Treasury and Justioe, to Key West to ascertain officially all the particulars bearing npun tbe ontrage upon the American flag committed by a Spanish man-of-war in boarding tbe Ameri can whaling schooner Ellen Bizpab, of Proridenee. It is learned by newspaper publications that a filibustering expedition is being fitted CUBAN AFFAIRS. Havana, Jane 6.—A decree has been issned declaring that as the authorities of Cuba and Porto Rico hare come to an un derstanding respecting the introduction of Porto Rico tobacco into tbe island of Cuba, therefore the importation of the same is si- lowed only at Havana.

New York, Jane G.—Specie shipped to Europe to-day, *450,000. The New Order of Things in France. —M. de Fourton, the Freooh Minister of the Interior, it seems, in carrying out the new system of political discipline in France, has adopted the plan of forbid- ding all political meetings of over twenty persons. This, if true, reduces the quality of French liberty considerably. It appears, however, that the Republi cans. acting under the counsel of M. Thiers, trill adopt a device similar to that of the American Congress on the military question, and refuse to vote the budget as long as the hostile ministry remains in power. A New Boston Notion.—Several deal ers in obeap jewelry in New York have been arrested for having in their posses sion and exposing to sale a new Boston notion in the shape of oroide sleeve- buttons about the size of a quarter of a dollar containing obscene pictures. It is stated that tho new derios for the diffu sion of moral ideas is a Boston invention. This is a new development of that higher morality and advanced civilization about wnioh we read, so much in our Eastern exchangee. NOTES FROM NEW TORE. New Yore.

Mr. Hendricks will be the guest of ex-Governor Tilden daring the week prior to his departure, and daring that time he will be tbe recipient of a complimentary banqnet, to be given him by the Manhattan Club, deeigned ex- pressly to afford him an opportunity to speak on public affairs. As Mr. Tilden will also be present on the occasion, it is certain to be one of unusual interest, and will probably mark a new departure for the party at large. Religious circles in England are excited over an address delivered by Rev. Mark Wilkes, a pronounced Darwinist, who said “Religion is threatened with decline because its foolish champions have placed it in hostility to soienoe.” As one of tbe leading Bishops of England bad taken strong grounds against tbe Darwinian theory only a few days before, people are wondering what the chorch will do with its free-thinking clergyman.
