For reasons satisfactory to the Court, an investigation was postponed until Monday, 10th of Au gust. Mr. Picquet was released from custody. Our Hauge roil* Cluaaca, The sjiort of shooting policemen is be coming a regularly established recreation among some of'our gentry. That officers may be slabbed or shot or otherwise killed in the midst of an affray, that ruffians or gentlemen may resist arrest, and in the struggle do fatal injury to their opponents, is no more than may be expected; such chances are taken by the applicant for police appointment, and he knows the extent of his danger. But it is not covenanted that he shall risk private assassination, as a sequence to the performance of his duty. In this respect he stands on equal ground with every citizen, and takes the slim chances of life that most of us enjoy in no more liberal proportion. Since the war there seems to have been a loosening of regard for human life, an increase of crimes of violence, especially those of the most desperate character, and a general retrogression toward barbarism, Most of this is doubtless due to the war itself, in which men not of the mildest natures learned to look complacently upon the shedding of blood, and let go unbridled the lowest passions of their natures. Hence we hear on all sides of th if fatal use of the pistol, the knife, and the bludgeon. Hence, when a policeman has been compelled to arrest a drunken ruffian, perhaps to keep him from doing a murder, the villain plots vengeance,, and speakingly wavlays the officer with the intent, and too often the success, of murder. .Such events are not calculated to increase [our regard for mild treatment. The softest hearted of us can not see a faithful officer shot down like a dog while protecting our own lives, without feeling that justice should be Stern and inflexible with the murderer. It is, to a great extent, this leek of full justice that has made it possible for such murders obe committed. The police, may now and hen be over zealous, but they have z a most langerous and unscrupulous crowd to deal rith. They need, in its fullest extent, tire noral and legal support of the magistracy. It is greatly to be desired that the niagis raey and the police should act in harmony, specially in the matter of crimes of violence b the person, now so prevalent. Mercy to tasassins should be left to the Governor ■one; the ruffian who uses his brass nuckles or slung-shot, knife or pistol, bould be given the full benefit of a fair rial, and the utmost penalty upon cotrvic iou. tat „ .. n hat to Stamp.

Tlud exercises of this school closed on Monday, the 20tb of July, and Will bej resumed on the first Monday in October. The attendance for the scholastic year has been large, and the general good deport incut of the scholars has given great satis faction to the teachers. Both boys and girls have been quite punctual—the average daily attendance being, for the former, between ninety and ninety-live, and for the latter about eighty. The school is in a flourishing condition, and is now better supplied with books than at any previous time since the close of the war. The system of weekly reports, both of recitations and deportment, has had a bene ficial effect by exciting in the minds of the scholars a laudable ambition. J. T. Derby. Acknu tviedu mtn l.

[From the- Circular of Win. Bryce A Co. New York Colton IgevietV. New York, July 28, 1868. Our last Circular reviewed the market to the J7th inst., when we quoted Liverpool heavy at llallUi., a°d th*' market steady, with holders asking an advance on 31Jc. for Middling Up lands, and 30A. for Low Middlings. On .Satur day Liverpool was heavy at lid., with sales of 8,000 bale?, This market was quiet but nomi nally unehanged; sales only 583 bales, all to spinners. Cold 1435. On Monday, Liverpool was down another A J.; Uplands quoted at 10£d.; business restricted to 8,000 bales.— Scarcely anything was done here, only 352 bales being sold at about |c. decline. Gold 1435. On Tuesday Liverpool and Manchester were both heavy and lower, Uplands selling at 10|d. A more Active business' was done here at sc. decline, Low Middlings s being freely offered at 30c. Sales 1,330 bales. On Wednesday Liver pool was quoted at llfd., with no increase in activity. These continued declines in that market cuused a very heavy feeling, and prices declined fully Ac. without provoking any de mand ; sales only 560 bales. On Thursday Liverpool went down to 10$d., and a more liberal business was done, the sales reaching 12,000 bales. The market here was weak, the sales only reaching 875 bales, of which 360 werg taken on speculation. To-day the market has been mare steady and quotations are obtainable, Liverpool steady at 10|d* for Up lands ; sales 10,000 bales. Cable advices since our last have come regularly to hand, and report a dull week in Liverpool with a decline of about Ad, op /Ameri can descriptions, Uplands closing at lOAd, against 1 lai I Jd« last week. Tbe sales have been small, reaching only 45 bales, including 3,060 to speculators, 10,000 to exporters, and 32,000 to the trade. Total stock in port of all kinds 602,000 bales 320,000 being American. Afloat for Great Britain 781,000 bales, 13,000 being from this country. Our own market for the week under review has been extremely dull, anti lower prices have been accepted in the sales made. The decline has been in sympathy with the Liverpool market, although current prices have continued from a penny to three half pence above the shipping point. The demand here has been wholly from spinners, who have been buying In tbe most economical way, and have not taken one-half their consumption, ao we may naturally look for some improvement next week in th . amount of business done. Low Middlings have been in the most decide i request, yet it has been difficult to realize quotations on this grade. For anything above Low Middlings, quotations are wholly nominal, the supply being so extremely limited, and what little has offered has been held so far above the views of buyers, that we omit quotations. For Low Cottons, th> demand has continued practically nil: some lots have been pressed off and a market found on a basis of about 'pc. fqr Ordinaries, at Which pric", however, vary litt'c can be bought. With all the dullness that has prevailed, th«e has been but little forcing done, or a much more extended business would bawe resulted. Ihe stock consists mostly of grades that are to aH intents and purposes unsaleable, and !»■ I lers of good working Cotton have taken bho chances of forcing spinners to pay at least quoted prices, and with the email stock on hand much of a decline is extremely improbable, except, Liver pool fdlh off still further. The accounts of damage by worms have had little or no effect beyond creating a feeling of apprehension and a determination to hold on and see the extent of injury done. Speculation has been iifelcs. on spot Cotton ; some sales for delivery have been made on the same basis menjlioned ln.-t week. We hear of no sales of trar it <’ottons, nor any engagements for export i TEL EUR APH MA R K ETS. liitanv.ini. LONDON, July 28, .Yoon.- -Consuls 94j. Bonds 73J. LONDON, July 28, Bonds 72Ja72J.

Georgia Legislature- Aflahta, July 28.—The Senate re j fused to concur in tbe House resolution instructing the Governor to notify civil officers of ilre cessation of military rule in Georgia. A resolution was offered in the House that, as no elections were held in the counties of Irwin and Telfair, and llio.se counties were not i.epresentod in ibis legislative body, the Governor In: requested lo order elections in the same, in order to bring them into the Union. Referred to the Judiciary Com mittee. The resolution appending the Amnesty Proclamation, and thanking the President, was not acted on, Washington Items. WASHtNc't'o.K, July 28. The Republicans are considering favorably the plan of electing Presidential Electors by the Legislatures of the Southern -States. It ie understood that the President 'Con siders the Cotnmissionership of Internal Revenue vacant, and will make an ad intcritn appointment in a few days. The effort to reorganize Federal offices in 'New Orleans failed. It was found im possible to compromise conflicting party interests- The following over due Federal obliga tions are ..outstanding: One year five per cent, temporary loan, issued four years ago, over one million seveu-ihirties payable in 4867, and ovqr one-half million seven thirties due June 30th, 1868. Nearly three million of these bonds are now paya ble in currency, without interest from date of maturity. The time for redeeming the seven-thirties ‘ due July 15th, 1866, is extended to August Ist, after which date they will be payable in currency, without interest. It is positively stated that tbe President will continue to act as heretofore regarding the Reconstruction Acts. He will conform to the law until modified by Congress or nullified by the Courts. Blncque Bey, Turkish Minister, is offended by Congressional resolutions of sympathy for Crete. Tlie Chinese Legation took formal leave of the President. Burlingame is delighted with the treaty. Howard is dismissing many Bureau func tionaries, giving three mouths' leave of preliminary absence. This evening's /Star has the following : “Choosing Electors m the South.—The .Southern members of Congress, within the past lew days, have, io conference with Republicans liere, decided that it will be best lor the Presidential electors in the reorganized States’ to be chosen by their respective Legislatures in tbe same manner as South Carolina has always chosen hers. This, it is held, will remove all fear of the disturbances and frauds which have been apprehended. It is, therefore, probable that these vjews will be carded ovt by the Legislatures, on whose bands the matter rests. ’ The Cabinet had a prolonged session. Schofield submitted an order for the reorganization of military districts, which will probably be promulgated to morrow. Details* unknown. Mr. Davis, with hi;; family, sailed Satur day from Quebec for Europe. The following order lias been issued from the War Department: The Commanding Generals of the Sec ond, Third, Fourth and Fifth Military District having officially reported that Arkansas, North Carolina, South Carolina, Louisiana, Georgia, Alabama and Florida have complied with the Reconstruction Acts, including the Actol J uno 25th, 1868, - and that, vuusequently, "so much of the Act of Marolr —ts, 186/, and nil Acts supple mentary thereto, providing for Military Districts, subject to the military authority of the United as therein provided, have become inoperative in said States, and Commanding Generals have ceased exer cising military powers conferred by said Acts, therefore the following changes will be made in tbe organization and command of the Military Districts and geographical department-; Firsf-i—The Second and Third Military Districts having ceased to exist, Norrti Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and Florida will constitute the Department of tbe Sbutb, General Meade to command, with headquarters at Atlanta, Ga. recond —General Gillein will command the Fourth Military District, comprising Mississippi. Third— General Reynolds will command tbe Fifth Military District,comprising Texas," with headquarters at Austin. Fourth— Louisiana and Arkansas will constitute the Department of Louisiana, General Rousseau commanding, with head quarters at New Orleans. General Bu chanan will continue in command until relieved by General Rousseau. Fifth —General George Cooke relieves General Rousseau in 4he .Department of Columbia. 67XM--General Canby is reassigned to the command of the Department of Washing ton. Seventh — General Edward Hatch, Colonel of the Ninth Cavalry, relieves General Buchanan as Assistant Commissioner of the Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abair denied Lauds in Louisiana. In accordance with the concurrent reso lution of Congress, Secretary Seward pro claims, reciting the facts and circumstances, and concludes : “And I further certify that the said amendment (fourteenth) has be come valid, to all intents and purposes, as a part of the Constitution of the United States.’’ Tbe Commissioner of Internal Revenue has given notice that spirits may be with drawn from bond on tbe payment of fifty* cents a gallon, and four dollars per barrel of forty gallons-—equal to six cents per proof gallon. All distilleries must be closed until the distillers have given bonds, and have complied with the new law in all other particulars. Cablegrams. London,' July 28.-In answering ques tions regarding diplomatic relations with Mexico, Lord Stanley said Mexico sus pended relations in consequence of Eng land recognizing Maximilian. Mexico can have diplomatic relations renewed by ap plication. Self respect forbids England taking the initiative. Private advices report peace concluded between Russia and Bokarra. Louisiana Legislature, ' New Orleans, July 28.—1 n a dubale in the Senate, yesterday, on a resolution to appoint a' committee to inquire into the actions of tbe Board of Registration, created by the Convention, the lie was passed. A. L. Lee, member of the House from St. Bernard Parish, and editor and proprietor of the New Orleans JiepMican, is appointed State Printer, and his paper is the liepubli can official journal for the State, city and Parish of Orleans, under the Printing bill ’ just passed. Governor Warmoth, yesterday, vetoed a joint resolution requesting the General of tire Armies to furnish troops to the civil authorities, iuslrucliug the Senate that the law in this case requires the application to be made to tbe President, and not to the General of the Armies. The veto was sustaiued. To day tbe same bill was introduced, amended in accordance with the informa tion furnished the Governor, passed by the Senate under the suspension rules, and sent to the House for concurrence. South Carolina Matters. Columbia, July 28.—Nothing done in the Legislature to day. The election of Chief and two Associate Justices takes place to morrow. Two ex Federal officers and one Carolinian will probably be elected. The negroes are making trouble in the interior. The whites ask lor troops, or say they will defend themselves. There is a grenT Democratic torch-light procession here to-night. The city is illu minated, and speeches are to be made > y Generals Hampton, Kershaw, Chestnut, McGowan, and other distinguished citizens. Alabama Legislature. Montgomery, July 28.—1 n the Senate, to day, the majority of thq Committee "on Disabilities reported in favor of removing all disabilities. The minority report is in favor of removing disabilities only from those who show themselves deserving of it. The advo cates of the miucrity want only Ao relieve those who will support Grant. The House lias a resolution fixing the pay at the rate prescribed by the Code. It is the sjune as the last Legislature received. A militia bill was presented to day. A bill punishing railroads tor making a distinctiou on account of color was made the special order for next Wednesday. The Legislature will probably take a recess on the sth of August until November. It is strongly urged by many members to pass a bill authorizing this Legislature to east the electoral vote of the State. If tins s done, it secures it to Grant and Colfax. Enfranchisement. * Nashville. July 28.—Browntow declines to recommend the enfranchisement of the whites, and leaves the whole matter to the Legislature. • • Marine News SAVANNAH, July 28.—Arrived : Steamship America, Baltimore.
