The order is said to arise front General Humphreys, and while it urges the abstinence frsm all violence in its execution, it directs the employment of such force as shall be necessary to put down any efforts of resistance on the part of the negros that may be made. This order is an important hue, and is denounced as an outrage upon colored veterans who aided in the overthrow of the rebellion. • It is said that Stanton declines to deliver the Lincoln anniversary oration. Beecher said, in a lecture last nfght. if he had been President last May, he would bavo Insisted on negroe suffrage in the South. The views of Banks on the Mexican question ara under stood to be conservative. He will agree with Raymond, who is second on the committee. They will both support the foreign policy of the Administration. The Comptroller of the Treasury desires attention called to the fact that certain par ties in thisoit^ are endeavoring to, raise, by means of contribution of the various national banks, a corruption fund of two hundred and fifteen thousand dollars, for the purposeof sub sidizing certain members of Congress, in or der to secure the passage of an amendment to the currency act, giving these banks the ben efit of their lost circulation. This scheme Mr. Clark discountenances altogether, and recommends that the hanks which have al ready contributed their quota, immediately demand the refunding ofthe money advanced for so dishonorable a purpose. The following is the committee on the part part of the House to inquire into the condi tion of the late Confederate States; Messrs.

AVAemKOTOX, Dec. 15.—Tho disarming of the black troops in Mississippi arises, proba bly, from the fear of trouble, now that the holidays are so rapidly approaching. Il is a fact that women and children are now in the Northern States, whose homes are in the South, but prefer to remain where they are until the dreaded Christmas times "have passed. The fears of trouble are stronger in Missis sippi than in any other State, though in cer tain portions of Alabama serious misgivings exist. When Gen. Canby mustered out the blacks in Louisiana, recently, lie ordered them all to be disarmed, and this action, I am informed, was based almost solely on the fear that a collision might occur should the- negroes be permitted to retain their arms. The departure tor Europe, on Wednesday, of the chief secretary of the French Legation is connected with the details ot the Mexican question, and growing popular sympathy with the Liberal cause in Mexico, together with ♦he appointment of General Logan, has led to a communication between Count Montbo- lon and the State Department, which resulted in sending a message to the French Emperor for definite instructions. It is said the withdrawal of the French legation from Washington will take place in case of the formal appointment of an United States Minister to the Mexican republic. WasmxoTOX, Dec. 15.—The two-thirty's vote in the House yesterday adopting the original Stevens resolution, is regarded as setting the question of admitting Southern claimants for scat*, they will not get in this sint-i.

National Bank*, j Having had many inquiries made as to the - consequence of a failure of any one of the National Banks, authorized by the goveru- ■ meat, aud their being some uneasiness felt at report ofthe failure of four of them in the north, we copy the following from the “com mercial'’ of the New Orleans Crescent, which explains the whole qnestion: ••Tlte fail arc of four National Bonks at the north to redeem their circulation ia the Uni- te l States treasury notes, has created a petty panic among some holders of this currency.— Ycstcrlsy, wc are informed, nt one, at least, ofthe city markets, it was refased by the batchers. Under these circumstances, and in order to prevent ill-informed holders from sel ling at a discount, the First National Bank promptly gave notice, through the press,jtliat it was ready to redeem atq National Bank issues, at its counter, at par, in United Suites treasury notes. In the meantime, some money dealers were exchanging city treasury notes for them at par. and all the banks and deal ers were receiving them on ^fcposit, and in some cases, exchtnging legal tender notes for them, to accommodate timid holders. “It is evident that the public do not apprc- Ugcrent, and did not avoid a fkir battle in sn open sea. Like a brave soldier, he fought his ship until she went down under him; and then like a true soldier, returned • to his country to shacu her trials and misfortunes.

Gen. Grant" was bold enough to urge the quashing of the charge which associated Gen. Lee with the Wirz af fair. We are confident that hr, and men like Aim, will insist upon respecting the surren der of Gen. Lee, which embraced Commander Semmes, at that time a brigadier general in the Virginia army. We are hopeful that this arrest is merely forthe purpose of securing the testimony of General Semmes, with reference to the ques tions which have arisen between the United States and Great Britian.—Montgomery Mail J2F" The New York Port has a letter from Galveston which say*. - “I have to-day seen a Confederate Colonel with his full uniform on, driving a dray, with a male whose harness, was made out of ropes.

The Macon Telegraph having passed into new hands, tho present proprietors havo thought proper to issue this Prospectus, to which they invite tho attention of the public. Thp editorial columns of tho Telegraph will be under the control of J. R. Sneed, Esq., and SamL Boykin ; Mr. TVm. A. Reid, Business Mano w In addition, able and truthful correspondents will be employed in most of the leading cities of tho Union, and at the Federal and Stato capitals, during the sessions of Congress and the Legisla ture. Several ot the best political and literary writers ofthe South have been engaged, and will furnish the readers of The Telegraph with regular contribution*. Among these we are pleased to announce the name of M P. W. A..” whose able and interesting correspondence, in the Savannah It,publican, during the late war, was so univer sally read and admired. Political Charactg^ In Politics, The JWcyrepAwill raaintaiu a man ly and bona fide acquiescence in all the legitimate consequences of the war, with the right, howev er—one never denied even to criminals—to pro test against injustice and unnecessary hardship. Regarding the restoration of Georgia to her former position in the Union, as of vital import ance to all her interests, it will promptly sup port all constitutional requirements, on the part ofthe Administration at Washington, lookiug to that end; and when perfect peace is restored, its best efforts will be given for a revival of the bet ter days of the Republic. Holding that protection and loyalty—kind guardianship and filial love—aro reciprocal du ties in national affairs; and that there ban be no real existence of the latter without the former, our support and affection for the Federal Gov ernment shall keep even pace with its regard for tho Rights of the reople. Leading Feature* The leading feature in TAc Telegraph will be its devotion to tho rights, interests and feelings of Georgia and her stricken sister States: wc would lift them up from the valley o f humiliation, ex hort them to a forgetfulness of the Past, except its glories, and nerve their arms for the arduous struggles of the future. Commercial Department. The Commercial Department of The Telegraph will receive special attention. Daily reports will be given of all the leading markets of tho Union, together with a full weekly review of the local market; while, on the arrival of every steamer, European political and commercial accounts will be given.

Education, Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts -will be fostered as the true sources of ail Nation al and individual prosperity. A Journal for tho Family. The Telegraph will be eminently a ConsCi'calire Journal.
