SUNDAY MORNING, OCTOBER ' 8, .1865. ■ "4 " - - i-fT" In refering to a .report that the' yellow fever had made its appearance in Savannah, the Herald of that city says, so far from this being the case the city was never more healthy' at this season. Pork Prospects.—The New Albany,' ftnffi) ledger of a late date says: “We had on, Saturday, an interesting interview with one ■of the heaviest pork dealers and packers in Southern Indiana. He ; informed us that he had just closed an extensive correspondence with drovers in this section, and was inform ed by nearly every 'c&inuiunication received,' that stock hogs were plenty, and the com crop probably the best raised in the past ten years.; He informed-ns that it was the gener al opinion among the packers that the market would open in November at not more than $8 or $ 50 per $850 pounds. The supply will be very, large. We understand that three packing houses will operate in this city the coming season." .. THE SUPERIORITY OP THE FEMI NINE OVER THE MASCULINE. This is tDe purport of alccture delivered to a “select and fashionable” audience,” at Dr. Chapin's church, Broadway, New York, by the distinguished advocate of “woman’s rights,” Mrs. C. F. Windle. The cardinal feature of Ifer creed is the superiority of the ethereal feminine, over that of the rough and bearish mascuiine nature. The fair lecturer is described as a person of unusual persona! attractions, and dressed in the most unexcep tionable manner. The audience ertnsisted mostly of ladies, from the maiden of sweet sixteen,to the apathetic spinster of fifty. Mrs; Windle slowly and gracefully ascended the steps leading to the pulpit, 1 and having enter ed thesacred precinct-'Usually occupied by Dr. CnAPiN.in his 'ministrations, spoke from manuscript for an hour and a half. nt The lecture alleged that woman is degrad ed by man, by reason of his superior strength and powers. Her position, socially, is that of an inferior—she i3 either, an ornamental toy or a useful drudge. By the laws of society) woman escapes her peculiar destiny. Woman, in ai spiritual sense is far elevated above man,- as her peculiar structure, is distinguished from his physically. There can be no diffi culty, assigning to woman’s physical organi zation the intended offices of maternity.,, She has been endowed beyond man that she may be the fit artist of the immortal offspring.— Woman in the “plan o[ progress.” is the ar tist of humanity. Wo*Hn.has the power of voluntarily fashioning tins beings of her ma terial creation previously to their birth—of moulding them spiritually as well as eorpo really, after the model of her own ideal. The lecturerclosed with a glowing peroration to the future progress of enlightenment and civiliza tion to be exemplifiedina change of woman’s relations to man. The greatest enthusiasm pervaded the meeting throughout, and the fair lady was raptuously applauded. Rev. Henry Ward Beecher has inscribed on bis banner the sil ver trumpet motto, “Uegros and ■ women.”- The strong minded; devotee hCre presented, clamors for “women” only, and consequently is open to the chargQi.of being a backward scholar in the “school of progress.” references: • wM E.

There will undoubtedly be an effort made by the readers, in the next congress, to im peach the president. In a late number of the N; Y. Herald we find the following in refer ence to this subject: • We have noticed a muttering among the radical Jacobins for several weeks past about impeaching the president Mor spmc cause or other. We looked upon this as.of np impor tance, believing it to be simply the reiving of a few fanatics who could' not express their disgust' of their own approaching doom in any other form. But some important facts have recently come to our knowledge, which not only place the whole affair in'a different light, but reveal a deep laid plot on the part of the radical abolitionists to actually at tempt the impeachment of'Presiclent John son, if they cannot defeat his restoration pojh cy in any other form. The Auti-Slutery Standard 1ms for some time openly advocated this course, while Beecher’s organ (the Independent) hah been constantly insinuating the same thing, which lms been followed by priYtrte and ptiblie articles by the secular editor of thnt shefet upoh 'the private clBtracter of the president;-' All this, with the accusations of the Chicago Tribune and other journals in the same interest, arc sufficient to convince an observer of events that something more than usual is in the wind. That a deep scheme has been prepared to thwart the presi dent’s policy is very evident from the course of those journals and the action of the Jaco bins and the Chose radicals; but, we did not suppose until a few days ago that it had as sumed its present shape of an attempt at im peachment. The Herald continues its article by stating that it jias been given out in Washington by the radical senators’ that all the facts and data have been prepared, and will be used at the proper time.' The president lias heen forewarned} and will be} 'prepared to defeat this desperate Sterne p^.Jijs Jqnemies. They have, says the same journal, from., th(3. cogi; inencement of tli eir : opposit ion to. tlio .presi- dent, been compelled to take untenable ground, and will find themselves, in the end, dwindled.down to a weak and powerless-fac tion. One of- the earliest newspapers in Oregon was printed from wooden types cut out by hand. The State has now three dailies; The Portland Oregonian,the Salem Statesman, and the Dallas Mountaineer. The editor of the Oregonian was the first graduate of-an Ore ; gon university. It is full of suggestiveneas that leaders and farmers of public opinion are of native culture and growth. Indeed, few things have impressed me more than to hear several -young ladies,’ who have lived GENERAL INTELLIGENCE. A Washington dispatch to the Cincinnati Gazette says that prominent democratic poli ticians, who are engaged in figuring upon the character of the next congress, say that there will be a majority’ of ten in favor of admitting the Southern members who come prepared 1 to take the test oath. The Herald's Washington special says that Kentucky, has expended over $2,000,000 for national troops, in addition ter what she ex- pended.foi 1 her home guard, for which she has never: reoeived reimbursement. Secretary McCulloch i has promised to arrange for its payment at the earliest possible day. Qov.- Oglesby, of Hlinois, as president of the • national Lincoln monument associa tion, has prepared a circular to the various governors and State legislatures, asking their concurrence and co-operation in the matter of raising funds for the construction of the monument. The New York Herald celebrates the re turn to that city of Sir Morton Peto and his brother capitalists, by printing what it as sumes to be the conclusions arrived at by the solid Englishmen. It says they propose to expend a hundred millions in this country in double tracking their own road and all its branches, and doing the same for the New York and Erie, besides shortening it seventy miles and building a bridge,, over Niagara river, at a cost of four millions. General Connor’s Indian expedition is re turning to Fort Laramie, after severely pun ishing the hostile tribes on Powder river, but it is not thought his success has been decided enough to settle the savages. One tribe was pretty thoroughly whipped and burned out, but two others were only partially subjugated. Other expeditions will be necessary. A terriblo murder occurred in Nashville on the 2d. James Garrison shot his wife delib erately rix times, emptying the contents of a navy revolver, causing almost instant death. Cause, jealousy. Jeff. Thompson tells the editor of the Lou isville Journal that the only persons in the South who wish to do any more fighting are those who didn’t do any when they had the chance. The Cleveland Leader says the officers of Oberlin College, without a dissenting voice, recently tendered Hon. James Monroe, United State consul at Rio Janeiro, now at home the presidency of that college, vice Finney resigned. Great pressure is brought to bear upon that gentleman, and he holds the tender under serious advisement. Secretary McCulloch is preparing to.take a week or two leave of absence to visit Ills home in Indiana. It will be his first absence from his post since his advent to the treasu ry department portfolio. The Philadelphia Bulletin, of the 25th says: We hear of a large number of families ‘and ; individuals who have determined to forego the use of butter or to consume it very sparingly, until the article is brought down to something like a reasonable price.” This aleagirrous compound is so scarce in this market that the citizens of Macon can not obtain it at any price. The Boston Post gives the city of Nashville a very bad name, as follows: “The morals of Nashville, Tenn., are said to be shocking. The courtezans are reckoned by thousands.” The Press and Times adds: This is leaving a little truth with a great deal of misrepresen tation. The number of prostitutes here can not, from the best accounts-,exceed five hun dred. A portion of the 3,000 copies of the gov ernor’s message of Tennessee ordered to be printed in German for the use of the Senate, is understood to be for use in Germany, on account,of the .large space devoted in this State paper to the importance of encourag ing imigration into Tennessee. uring © feet front by 208 feet deep, located in the I here from infancy; discuss appreciatively and business part of the city-also suitable for sdwel- critically the merit® and demerits ot Tfaacke- ling.

It is true that I declined to give mv charge, or any portion thereof, to the press for publi cation. My reasons were communicated to;a leading journalist.

That we have just emerged from a civil war, in which some were trying to establish a new government, whilst others were defending :he old government. Thatso soon as the for tunes of war went against the confederates, and the federal arms prevailed, the paternal relations and duties of the government were resumed and it became its policy, instead of destroying to protect, epcourage and estab lish us iu the enjoyment of every libery secur ed by the constitution. That the military authorities would be expected to sub mit to and aid in the excution of every legitimate . civil mandate., That no court could otherwise exist and execute jus tice as we were sworn to execute it.

The Times edi torially holds up the movemfcnt to contempt as ridiculously absurd and utterly insignifi cant in proportion, but says it is something to have it clearly understood that the American government has rejected all the-participation which Irishmen so fondly expected. The Army and Navy- Gazette does. not believe in the troops being infected with Fenianism, and says they are instructed on sound milita ry principles, in the event of a rising, and number 26,000 men, besides 10,000 armed po lice. .The Moniteur authoritatively states that no change in members or policy of the French government is in contemplation.

I referred to certain orders proposing to disarm citizens, and to the fact that apprehensions seem still to be entertained thnt there is sedition and rebellion amongst us, and recommended them, in the exercise of one of their ancient dvities as grand jurors to make diligent, enquiry whether any one was endeavoring to get and hold arms for seditious, insurrectionary or rebellious purposes, and if they found the fact to exist, to act in candid concert with the military iu suppressing it. If, however, the contrary appeared (which I believed would be the case) to let their presentments speak on the subject plainly, but with deco: rum and dignity. • ' These views I honestly entertain, and it was not from any fear of consequences per sonal to myself, that I at first withheld their publication.

The war has closed—our people have bound themselves by an oath to accept its results. They are not perjured. Thepresi dent has said he will rely upon their fidelity. His subordinates <U6 as well do so. Whether these be the views of others or not, they are. mine; and if J know my self, I will be the last man to yield prin ciple. Humble as I am, if' it be expected that the courts in Georgia, in this day of our humiliation, are to set a precedent for all time of the subordination of the civil to the military power in my country, the officer to act in such a miserable farce must be sought for somewhere else; not here. Iam not the man. Such are my antecedents that no man can say that these declarations are made in a sedi tious or jaundiced spirit. It is well known that by example and precept I have counseled in behalf of peace, good will and fraternity of feelings, going so far as to subject myself some obloquy even at the hands of friends.— But I have never concealed the, sacrifice of any self-respect or of any of the eiiobling prin ciples of manhood and never will.' Nor do I believe that such sacrifices are expected by the victors,in the late war. B. H. Bioham. . Judge Superior Court. 1H>A The Davenport Swindle in Paris—How they were Exposed. [Paris (September 14) Correspondence London Daily News.] * * * . The Davenports came forward at last, looking worn and rather frightened.— The interpreter then invited two of the au dience to come upon the stage to watch the operation. The two who stepped forward were greeted with howls ot “ Confreres I” but these changed to. .applause when they named themselves, M. H. de Rene, well-known for a celebrated duel, and editor of the Ga zette des Eirangers and the Vieomte Clary.— They, [inspected Cords and cup boards, saw nothing suspicious, and the brothers were as securely as usually tied to their bench. The doors are closed, the unearthly hub bub of unmusical instruments com mences ; tlie 1 spectator^ ask for light, the spirits, by their interpreter, object; the public is for a moment silent and the brothers walk out of their box unbound.- One of the gentlemen who tied them thinks the ropes produced are not the same as lie had used, but the objection does not prevent a second manifestation. This time the broth ers' who had entered the box unbound, arc found solidly attached to the bench, but a spectator whose attention had been uninter ruptedly fixed upon the bench, jumps on the stage, puts'his hand on the bench, round- which the cords are wound, touches a spring, thebenon bends in the middle, andthc cords fall at the feet of the captives, who themselves plumped down not on their heads. The rush, the row, were terrific, hut the ap pearance of the commissary of police, who announced that the money would be returned, succeeded in restoring quiet; The company, after examining the mysteries of the cup board, retired, not sorry to find their money in their pockets, delighted at having detected the imposture, and glad to breathe some fresh air 1 , for the heat had been stifling. . ? -.nq it". . . . ,.l . . >• The scarcity of laboring hands on the east ern shore of Maryland is occasioning much inconvenience to the citizens of that region, and a delegation yesterday made application to the freedmen’s bureau to obtain help. Gen. Howard has already sent forward a number of freedmen to the State of Mary land, and will send more in a few days to the eastern shore. Gen. Beauregard.—For so qiiiit atid un obtrusive a citizen, Gen. Beauregard is made by the Northern journals to appear to be the most restless and perturbed spirit and most ubiquitous personage of this remarkable era. A -while ago we had the General in some Northern city, about to take passage for for eign lands. Again we heard of him as ac tually in France, soliciting a .'general’s com: mand in the army of the Emperor. The very latest bulletin, however, which appear ed iu the papers on Sunday, last, placed him in Mexico, by invitation of Emperor Maxi- millian, to take command of the army of the Imperial persuasion. "What was our surprise after reading tlicse authentic accounts of General Beauregard’s movements, to meet him yesterday on the street, looking as innocent and indifferent to these serious dispositions of his person, with out liis will and consent, ns a lamb'regards the preparations of the butcher to serve him up for the market. There may be a General Beauregard in New York, Paris and Mexico, but tbe rcal simon pure General, who is ki)own in this State as the man who figured rather conspicuously some months ago at Petersburg and previously at Charleston, Conrinth, Man assas, &c., is now n sedate, quiet citizen and civilian in his native city, who has no idea of leaving liis country, and will remain here to meet all the responsibilities and discharge till the duties of a citizen.—New Orleans Pimyune. there arc two small islands betwen New Foundland and Ireland not marked in pres ent maps, but adopted for,- service inlaying ay the Atlantic cable. n - . . The Emperor of Austria has issued an im perial manifesto to his people, solemnly guar anteeing to them the right to participate, £ through their representatives, in legislation, .;. and the conduct of finances. Liverpool, Saturday evening, Sept. 23}— ; The steamer California, from New York, af- d rived at Greenock to-day. The Liverpool telegraph publishes a report that the Ameri can bark Havana, which arrived there from Cardenas, was overhauled at sea by an armed _ screw steamer, carrying the Fenian flag. The captain announces the story a hoax. id. The issue of eight hundred; thousand pounds sterling bonds by the exchange com pany is officially announced by Morgan & Co. of .London. The price is 75, redeemable at par in 1 ten years, with interest at 6 per cent. The bonds are convertible at any time into stocks at owner’s option. Liverpool, Sept. 24.—[By telegraph to Queenstown.]—The Fenian prisoners were all remanded yesterday at Dublin for a week. They will all be tried together. Arrests still continue. Among the latest are a merchant tailor in Dublin, named Druffe, and a station er in Liverpool, named Arch Deacon. Treas onable documents and arms were found in -both Cases. (Paris, Sept. 23.—The bourse closed at 68 a24e. The minister of the interior has instructed the prefect3.*:to carefully- expose provincial papers, and, officially correct errors in them. , At the street cleaning investigation, the evidence was so unimportant that Mr. Brady sai4 'to-morrow, if in case his client’s case stood as it did now, he would submit it to the governor for decision without further evidence, and without argument. A fire broke out this P. M. in the upper story of building 1851 Water street, occupied by Geo. Copeland, commission broker, W.

New York, Oct. 4th.— The Herald’s Vera Cruz correspondence of the 21st ult., repre- sent R..terrible state of affairs in Mexico.---, Disorder and.Tiolence reigns supreme. The guerillas increase in numbers and their dep-' v/ifloJnTie I'nntinllft- in nil ftnmn redatibns continue in nil sections. Some J,60O additional French troops have lately arrived, and a number of negro troops are ex pected' from Egypt. It is feared they -will; bring tlie cholera with them and inflict a new misery en the country. The Herald's special says, that of the new 5-2V bonds for the conversion of certificates ■ of indebtedness and other interest bearing securities, three denominations only Will be made, viz: one thousand, five hundreds and one hundred dollars; the one thousand tire the only one now ready. The pension bureau desires it to lie known by applicants for pensions, that it is mtneces- saiy for them to go to the expense of obtain ing certificates of the , loss of limbs, as tlie bureau has that information already. ggf At the grand Indian council held at Fort Smith, on the ICth ult., Mr. Belidinat, late a representative of the Cherokee nation in the Confederate Congress} in speaking of Albert Pike of Arkansas late a general'in'the Confederate army, and John Ross, chief of the Cherokecs, said : Gen. Pike has been represented here as a leader of barbarians. I assert that Gen. Pike, and r know tha, those frho are conversant with the facts will bear me out in the asser tion, 1 should he be held-no more responsible for acts of. cruelty, 1 of which he is charged as the instigator, than Gen. Bussv, who sits be fore me, for some inhuman acts of a soldier, committed in his absence and without his knowledge or approval. Again as to Mr. John Ross. We claim, first, that he acquisced in the treaty of peace with[the Confederate States and was t he prime mover in procuring such treaty. 2d. That there was no attempt at :, com pulsion by the Confederate authorities. 3d. That he organized a regiment of 1,300 men to fight for the South, before any act of hostility had been committed. 4th. On tlie night referred to before, he clasped the hand of Stand Watie, a bitter enemy, pledged his faith, to uphold the Con federate cause. VARIETY. The people of Chillicoflie, Ohio, seem con siderably exorcised at the prospect that a miserable Confederate soldier, just out. of one of tlie surrendered armies, and who rejoices in the cognomen of “Mudwall Jackson,”,. , proposes to take up his residence iii that. place. Gen. Marmaduke, while, on his < was from Fort Warren to New York, stopped at Naiy Haven tor an hour or two, says the Register of that city, itr order to consign to the proper hands the ring of a deceased federal officer from that place, thus fulfilling a pledge he had given to a dying man amid the tumult Of battle. A Rochester paper says: A man who re- sides in Cliili, New York, declares that he has discovered the cause of the prevailing drought. He attributes it to the large num ber of lightening rods lately put up about [hat region of country. Ho says these rods take the electricity from the clouds, and scat ter it without affording rain. Brownlow.t-A correspondent of the New York Mercury, who is personally acquainted with Parson Brownlow, gives the following pen-and-ink portrait of his excellency : “ A dusty, sallow man—all gall and blus ter. He,..,is Scotch Irish by birth, and a Methodist preacher by profession ; tierce rather than strong, an uncomfortable friend and an ugly enemy. He is a tall and awkward man, with large hands and shambling feet. His provincialism is shocking, and liis coarse ness repulsive. The most unchristian of all preachers, he makes it a sin to forgive an enemy.- His personalities are disgustingly original! He has some virtues—never drinks or smokes. His son. John has the same style of temperance^ but once killed a fellow col legian.”
