In some coun ties there have been many deaths from actual starvation. —lmprovements seem to be the order of the day in Chattanooga. Old build ings are being torn down, and new ones are being built up all over town. Thorough street improvements are also in progress. —About SIOO,OOO in coin, belonging to certain banks in Richmond, Virginia, which was captured at Washington, Ga., and placed' on special deposit in the United States Treasury, is about to 1 e restored, by order of the President, to the plundered institutions. . —One of the band of horse thieves who has been recently arrested in Wil son county, states that the stolen ani mals were at once driven South, and sold in Georgia and adjoining States. The citizens have been suffering heavily from the depredations of this gang, which now bids fair to be broken up. —Mr. Seward has lately drawn down upon himself the ire of a portion of the Paris press by his assertion that Spain was the only European power that might reasonably claim a right of inter vention in America. —As a singular incident of Parisian court life, it is mentioned that Teresa, whose celebrity is due to her singing of indecent French songs in the French cases, has been presented to the Em peror Napoleon, who was delighted with her vocalism. —Lieutenant General Seoft met with an accident on his trip from Key West to New Orleans by falling from his berth. He was not very Seriously injured, although he was confined to his room for several days. He recovered slowly, and, although he attended church recently, he was still very feeble. —A German'gentleman has submit ted to Secretary of the Treasury Mc- Cullough, a -proposition that our Gov ernment shall issue land certificates, each representing a certain nuypber of acres of the Government lauds, which, it is claimed,-would meet with a rapid sale in Germany, and vastly increase immigration hither from that country. —General Grierson, who commanded the cavalry corps in the Mississippi de partment during the war, testified before the Reconstruction Committee that Ten nessee was more loyal than any of her neighbors, and that it is his belief that an organization exists in some of the Southern States lor a renewal of the re bellion. —At St. Peters church, New York ! on the 4th inst., th twilight Rev. Bishop Lynch, of Charleston, S. C., delivered a sermon on the unity and stability of the Catholic Church. He concluded with an appeal to the Catholics of New York for contributions to enable him to repair some of the damages inflicted during the war on the churches and other ecclesi astical institutions in his diocese. —Washington dispatches represent that considerable progress is being made in the work of closing the breach be tween President Johnson and the Con gressional malcontents of ihe Republican party, and that the Radicals are assidu ous in their efforts to make their peace with the Executive. The crisis which recently rendered imwiueut the resigna tion of Stanton and other members of the Cabinet is said to have passed, and it is now given out as probable that they will hold their ministerial positions for some time yet. . A large assemblage of members of the Society of Friends, or Quakers, as well as others not of that persuasion, took place recently in the Twenty-seventh street Friends’ meeting house, New York, to hear a discourse from Mrs. Lucretia Mott, who has for many years been known among her peculiar people as an able speaker. The lady’s reputa tion did not suffer by her discourse, her remarks being of a character and being delivered with a fluency that greatly interested her audience- She touched, among other subjects, on woman’s rights, and thought that in the marriage service the wife ought not to be required to “obey” the husband. —lmportant news regarding the pro gress of the war between the South American republics and Spain Is con tained in despatches brought by the steamship Costa Riaa. Ecuader has joined the alliance of Chile and Peru against the Spaniards, and the prospect is that other republics will follow her example. A considerable disaster has befallen the Peruvian navy, the steam frigate Amnzoua, of forty guns, and the iron-clad Loa having been run on shore and proved a total loss. The American steamer Uncle Sam has been seized at Panama on suspicion of being engaged in loading supplies intended for the Spanish squadron, and a guard of fifty Panama soldiers has been placed on board of her during the pendency of an investigation of the matter. .1 l«l!STA FOUNDRY AID !Vl;i chine Works, AUGUSTA, GEORGIA.
