Among other pleasant recreations, wo must mention the excursion, yesterday, of “The Ladies Aquatic Club,’’ on fishing thoughts intent, and our regret that business of a l'ress-ing nature precluded us from accepting tho kind invitation to make one of tho paity. Hid they catch anything? The Work House. Wo are glad to know that the construc tion of the Public Work House has at last been commenced, and hope tho authorities will hurry tho contractors. The Work House has long been needed, for the punishment of violators of the law. To the majority of such, the “Chain Hang” (so called) lias no terrors —it is, in plain parlance, a humbug. When the Work House (near the Canal) shall have been completed, and criminals are made to icurk, we opine that it will have a happy ell'ect. Breaking stone, under surveillauee, will prove to be something different tlmu the present kind of labor (?) required of those enrolled upon the list of street workers. A \ice *t ucslleu. Suppose a man owns a batteau : he fastens it to tho shore at the foot of Mc- Intosh street, with a rope made ol straw ; along comes a pig and gets into the boat— turns round and eats tho rope ; the boat thus let loose, with tho pig on board, starts down stream, and before it gets to Kirk patrick’s Bend the boat is upset and piggy is drowned. Now, has the man that owns the pig got to pay for the boat, or the man that owns the boat got to pay for the pig? A Wile Worth Unving. A man who was amusing himself bv visiting tho several grog shops, and was rapidly getting into an obfusticated condi tion, was followed by his devoted wife, who at one ot the places persuaded him to deposit with her his pocket hook, containing si>2s. Subsequently missing his money, and his condition rendering him oblivious to all that had passed, lie complained at tho police station that he had been robbed at some one of the eight or nine places lie had visited. His wife was probably the means of saving that amount to him. The Very Latent. Anew fashion, which was started at Madam do Rothschild’s ball in Paris, is the adoption of garlands of flowers instead of microscopic hits of green stuck in false hair. Natural flowers are preferred, and these are kept fresh all the evening b y quills being filled with lresh water and sealed at both ends. The “Ophelia bonnet,” which came out recently in Paris, is a pale, delicate green drapery made of erystalized tulle, and forms a scarf fanchon. Nothing hat sea green leaves and white water lilies or lake flowerets are seen behind, trailing in long curls. Plenty of flounces on very light silk and plenty of Valenciennes are the newest trimmings. Improvement in Cemeteries. In some cemeteries of the country an improvement has been suggested and car - ried out, which we present for the consider ation of owners ol lots in our beautiful City of the Dead. The improvement is what is termed the lawn plan. It contemplates the exclusion of mounds over graves aud of railings and fences around lots, and thus securing for the whole grounds a more pleasant uniformity. The boundary lines of lots are indicated by small stone posts which do not appear above the surface. The natural beauty of the landscape is thus preserved and a heavy expense is saved friends who sometimes exceed their means in adorning lots, and whose taste is often times not equal to their means. A .-ingle monument is allowed upon each lot. The appearance ol such a lawn cemetery is said to be much more pleasant and attractive to friends than the old plan of strict, selfish, chains aud posts, painted black and painted brown, and oftentimes nut painted at all. Death brings all to a common level and no more beautiful, appropriate and simple adornment, can better exemplify this idea than that which nature furuishos and which could only be secured by a large, well kept, uniform lawn. The simple monuments rising from these graves, iu connection with the beauty of nature, would be more beau tiful, less suggestive of vulgar extravagance aud display, more in consonance with cul ture and refinement than the present method of honoring the dead. We will listen to a change upon any practice in life sooner than upon this. We have a tender regard for the dead and the places where they are buried that directs tho innovation of new customs. When they are suggested we almost regard them as sacrilegious. Hut when we remember that this is but to beautify but to render more tender and dear and pleasant those cherished memories —but to surround our graves with nature's own simple and yet matchless beauty and elegance, the change is not disagreeable but very much to be desired. The Local Hint I lie Lecturer. The following story may have been told before, Imt will bear n pealing over, as it will probably be appreciated by all who arc keen enough to Hoe the point. It is in two parts, the first being entitled “What the Local said to the Lecturer” : The lecture last evening was a brilliant affair. The hall ought to have been filled. We are sorry lo say only forty persons were present. The speaker commenced by saying that he was by birth an ecclesiastical deduction ; gave a learned description of the devil, and his skill iu sawing trees. Among other things, he stated that the patriarch Abraham taught Oecrops arithmetic. Wc trust the eloquent divine may he induced to repeat the lecture at some luliire day. Part Second—“ What the Lecturer said of tho Local" : Deak Sin In n report of my lecture in our bcautiluly city, you have made some few mistakes which 1 "wish to correct. You make me speak of myseli as by birth an “ecclesiastical deduction.” What I said was, that 1 was not by birth, hut only eccle siastically a Dutchman. Instead of speaking of the devil as sawing trees, 1 uaid nothing ol Abraham, but spoke of the Arabians an nomads ol patriarch simplicity. 1 said that Oecrops was the founder oi Athens ami instructed the people iu agriculture.

Nkw York, May 29, 18I1S. Our last Circular reviewed the market to tho 22d illat., when wo quoted Middlings at 31c in this market, and llld. in Liverpool, both mar kets quiet and steady. On Saturday, the Cable reported Liverpool more active at 11 pi., the sales footing up 10,000 bales. Our market remained steady at previous quotatious, but with littlo doing. On Monday, Liverpool was dull—sales, 7,000 hales. This market was dull and heavy, and nominally jo. lower. Tho busi ness was too small to make any quotations reliable. On Tuesday, Liverpool closed at lljd., with sales of 4,000 bales. The market here was again lower, 30c. being tho quotation for Mid dling, hut there were hardly any sellers oven on that basis, whoro the grade itself was not to be had. Wednesday was a counterpart of Tuosday, buyers anti sellers, both hero and Liverpool, sieming equally indifferent ; in the latter mar ket, 11 id. was the nominal quotation. On Thursday, tho Liverpool market advanced id., with much more duiug, tho sales reaching 10,000 halos. Prices hero went up fully lc., and a fair business of 3,700 hales was done on that basis. To-day, the market has boon steady at tho improvement of yesterday, hut with loss doing. ('able advices since our last have come regu larly to hand, and prices ou tho othor rido have varied about id., with a very small business. The sales of tho week foot up 37,000 bales, of which 27,900 went to tho trado, 6,000 to ox porters, 4,000 to speculators. Tho stock in port foots up 620,000 bales, of which 363,000 aro American. The Cotton afloat aggregates 512,009 bales, of which 90.000 aro from this country. Cur own market for tho week under review, has been rather irregular, hut closes at about tho figures of last week. The decline made during tho week was only on forced lots, aud at the low quotations of Tuesday and Wednesday, it would have been impossible to have oxocuted any order of any magnitude. On the oilier hand the demand has hcoii so limited that on a pe remptory order to sell it would have been difficult to obtain oven quoted price-'. Tho character of the market has boon obstinate, both holders and sellers so confident of their positions that busi ness bus been almost impossible. At the close, buyers have yielded to sotuo extent, and quota tions liavo correspondingly improved, although the majority of the stock hero is held for much higher figures than we quote. Fino Cotton i have disappeared from the boards, and wo omit quo tations; we might also quote Middlings as nomi nal, for there is hardly any of it in the market, and what is on the hoards is mostly held for 350. Tho bulk of the stock is Good Ordinary to Low Middling, and very littlo of it what is known as good spinning Cotton. For good strong stupled varieties there will boa large difference in price before the season is over. Our spinners havo purchased but a very limited amount during the week, and exporters havo done littlo or nothing. Speculators havo been timorous, looking in vain for an export or spinning support, without which speculation is never any aid to tho market. The bears have hammered prices with great perse verance, but tho last turn of the market has disturbed their calculations. Sterling and Gold have both been steady, but, in the present posi tion of tbc staple, tbeir influence will bo very slight for tho rest of tho season The weather in Europe continues to bo vory favorably for tbc Cereal crops and tbc iuevitabio consequence is a largo homo trado for both Great Britain ami tho U- ntin-nt. Tho exports from Great Britain to the Continental ports bid fair to lie very heavy, for tho stocks in all theso ports aro low, and England i.- the only market whence they run draw supplies before our new crop comes in. Last season from May toOetoocr Ist, tho exports from Grea' Britain oxeco l 26,000 bales weekly, and this year, inasmuch as we havo little ur nothing to send from this country, the amount purchased iu England lor foreign account will bo fully is great as last year. The question of trade in Liverpool, is of course conjectured, but unless some unexpected supplies appear, the rate of 48,000 bales weekly must, bo reduced. Their source us supply is India, and that, varie ty is 157,000 bales less than last year at same time. U last dates tonnage on tho berth at Bombay available for Europe was double the amount in 1867 at same tiino. Accounts from the South arc of the sumo char acter as mentioned in lite circulars.

The moment it is used, pain ceases. It cures rheumatism, neuralgia, bilious cholic, and inflammation of tho kid neys,almost instantly. If seized with sudden colds, coughs, influenza, dipthcria, hoarse ness, sore throat, chills, fever and ague, mercurial pains, scarlet fever, etc., etc., take from four to six of Radway’s Fills, and also take a teaspoonful of the Ready Relief in a glass of warm water, sweetened with sugar or honey ; bathe the throat, head and chest with Ready Relief, (if ague or inter mittent fever, bathe tho spine also), in tho morning you will he cured. How the Relief acts.—ln a few minutes the patient will feel a slight tinging irrita tion, and the skin becomes reddened ; if there is much distress in tho stomach, the Relief will assist nature in removing the offending cause—a general warmth is felt throughout the entire body, and its diffusive stimulating properties rapidly courses through every vein and tissue of the system, arousing the slothful aud partially paraly zed glands and organs to renewed and healthy action ; perspiration follows, and the body feels increased heat. The sickness at stomach, colds, chills, headache, oppress ed breathing, the soreness of the throat, and all pains, either internally or externally, rapidly subside, and the patient falls into a tranquil sleep, awakes refreshed, invigor ated, cured. It will be found that in using the Relief externally, cither ou tho spine or across the kidneys, or over the stomach and bowels, that for several days after a pleasing warmth will be felt, showing the length of time it continues its influence over the diseased parts.

A telegraph company from San Francisco to China ask certain privileges. A bill organizing Wyoming Territory passed. Hendricks moved to take up the bill making eight hours a day’s work in Govern ment shops. Trumbull urged the immediate considera tion of the Omnibus Admission bill. Without considering either, the Senate adjourned. House: The Ohio contested election case resulted in the ousting of Morgan and the seating of Delano. The following Republi cans voted with the minority: Broomail, Cary, Driggs, Ferry, Holey, Hill, Lough bridge, Myers, and Taffee. Delano was sworn in. Resolutions complimentary to Buchanan, and appointing a committee of seven to attend his fuuerai, was tabled. Several members objected lo a declara tion that the deceased’s motives were patri olie. Vote, 73 to 47. Paine, from the Reconstruction Commit tee, reported the Arkansas bill as amended by the Senate, with amendments. Brooks objected, as the Reconstruction Committee had not ordered the report of the Speaker, which decided that tho House had control. House refused to receive (lie report by 55 to 00. A message reporting a deficiency in the reconstruction appropriation for the First District was received. A resolution stating Buchanan’s death, and as a mark of respect for one who held such ou eminent public station, the Speaker appoint a committee of seven, etc., was passed by 80 to 10. Recess to seven o’clock. Wash ngton Items. Washington** June 3.—The Judiciary Commiltee’s amendments to the House Om nibus Admission bill adds Florida and excludes Alabama, ’l lic fundamental con dition is that there will never be any abridgement of suffrage on account of race or color ; and in Georgia’s case, in addition, the nullification of tbc first and third sub divisions of section 17 of tlie fifth article of the Constitution, except the proviso to the first sub-division. [See articles on second page.j The Legislature may be convened, within thirty days after the passage ol the act, by the Governor elect. It is prerequisite that the State Legisla tures adopt the fourteenth amendment, which fact it is the duty of the President to proclaim within ten days after official notification of its adoption. [second dispatch.) Washington, Juno 3.- -Ways and Means Committee have agreed to postpone action on the tariff until next session. Special action on some articles will not be touched this session. The Printers’ Union called on the Presi dent to and qv, who said : “I consider it a nobler distinction to wear upon my garments the tinge of the shop and the dust of the field, than all the insignia that may attach from victories won on the fields cumbered with crushed and bleeding humanity. Tin- aris tocracy of labor is true Democracy, and to that aristocracy 1 belong.” A telegram in the Herald , professing to originate with a person enjoying intimate relations with Chase, represents that Chase would only accept the nomination when the nation was in the utmost peril, and not then at the sacrifice of his honest convictions. Admits that tho Radical party and himself differ widely, aud as parties aro now organ ized he is with the Democratic party. He differs from them only on one point—that of universal manhood suffrage—and agrees with them on all other great issues, and if elected by that party would certainly carry out their policy. The deplorable condition of the Southern States demands proper Con gressional consideration, and also material aid from the general government. There is no constitutional authority for holding the Southern States in subjection. It is alike unwise and unjust. Favors enfranchise ment and removal of political disabilities from every white man in the South. Thinks freedom and manhood suffrage are unques tioned rights, but controverts any other power than tho States themselves to confer the right, the General Government having no control over the matter. Opposes po litical disabilities imposed by the fourteenth article. Proposes general amnesty as a relief, and regards it as absolutely neces sary Urges liberal aid to Southern rail roads and navigable rivers. Thinks the Government should build levees from Cairo to the Gulf. Urges early return to specie payment. Condemns, in strong terms, the trial of citizens by military commissions during peace. Hopes if Johnson reorgan izes the Cabinet lie will appoint a due proportion from the Southern Slates. Re plying to a question, Chase said Congress had no power to abridgo tho President’s pardoning power. The Secretary of AVnr, at the suggestion of the General of tho Armies, sends to the House a loiter from the General command ing the First Military District, dated May 15th, regarding the effect of the XlVth Article in the States still under Provisional Government. He supposes tho effect would make vacant all offices held by persons in competent under the amendment. The number in Virginia would be several thousand, and only a small portion of these vacancies can bo tilled by persons possess ing necessary qualifications, including ability to take the oath. Gen. Schofield adds : I have already appointed in Virginia nearly five hundred officers, and would have appointed more if qualified persons could be found, lie concludes: when the amendment is adopted a large number of offices must remain vacant until Con gress gives some relief. The whiskey tax will not be over 75 nor less than 50—probability of a compromise lit 60. Tax on liquors will remain at $5. The above statement is gathered from sources deemed entirely reliable. Tho troops arc under arms, by order of Gen. Hancock, to keep tho peace. Oregon Election. San Francisco, June 3.— Oregon elec tion resulted in Democratic triumph. Dem ocratic Congressman elected by 1,000 ma jority. Legislature and County officers arc nearly all Democratic. Duel—Fire. Savannah, June I.—A duel was (ought here to day, between two colored men, in which one was killed. A lire occurred last night on Bay street. Loss, $20,000 —fully insured. Important Order- Nkw Out, eaks, June 3.-An order of Ucnoral Buchanan on the election was promulgated to day. It announces State, Parish, und Judicial officers, but makos no mention of municipal elections. The order statos that tho Civil Government heroby provided for is provisional in character, until after the fourteenth article shall have become part of tho Constitution of the United Statos. The officers elected will enter upon their duties ou the first Monday in November, in accordance with Article 138 of the new Con stitution ; but any vacancy occurring in any office in the meantime will be filled prefera bly by the person who has been elected to it. Any officer elected and found to be dis qualified, who held the office at the date named, is to hold over until the disability be removed, or n new election held. Con tested elections will bo decided by a proper civil tribunal, in accordance with the exist ing State Constitution and laws. The General Assembly will not convene until the Commanding General shall have been officially notified of the acceptance by Congress of tho new State Constitution. Immediately after receipt of this informa tion, a day will be appointed for the meet ing of the General Assembly to take action upon the amendment to the Constitution of the United States, known as Article XIV, and to define by law the powers and duties pertaining to the offices newly created by this Constitution- Jeff. Davis’ Case Postponed Richmond, June 3.—The U. S. Court met this morning, Chief Justice Chase and Judge Underwood presiding. The Chief Justice called the case of Davis, when Mr. Anderson, ol Mississippi, one of the counsel for the defense, read an agreement for its postpone ment 'till October, signed by Evarts and O Conner- The Chief Justice then asked if the counsel wore ready for trial independent of this stipulation ? Governor Wells, for the prosecution, re plied that, in view of the absence of the District Attorney, whose wife is in a dying condition ; the absence of the prisoner, caused by this stipulation, and the absence of Mr. Evarts, who stood in a position of more directly representing the Attorney Genera!, the case could not well be gone on with. He suggested some day of the term in October, when the Chief Justice could attend. Counsel for defense moved for postpone ment till next term,which tho Chief Justice granted, saying, at the same time, that had the trial taken place in May a your ago, or lust Fall, or now, it would have been more convenient for him, as he was ready to try the ease. He would, however, attend next term, if possible, in view of his other du ties. Witnesses, including General R. E. Lee, were recognized to appear on the fourth Monday in November, and the prisoner’s bail bond renewed. [second dispatch. | Richmond, June 3.—The understanding in the Court to day seemed to be that Mr. Davis’ trial will, without doubt, take place next term. The Chief Justice, in answer to questions of counsel, said he would attend at that lime, and remain as long as possible, consistent with his duties in the Supreme Court. Markets—By Telegraph.
