PASSAGE OF THE RZFOB1C BILL.
In the House of Commons on the 26th, debate on
the Reform Bill was continued. Mr. Lowe made a ;
Available for the reduction of taxation.... $75,000,000
The following comments and explanations
by Mr. Morrill, accompanied the bill and re
port : *
“One of the largest and best paying consumers of
the products of the country during the war was the
Government, but is eo no longer. War prices no
longer rule, and it is inevitable that manufactures
must bo still further reduced in values until we reach
the solid standard of gold as recognized by the com
mercial world. The tax on manufactures, therefore,
must bo far less productive for the year ending June
30, 1867, than heretofore, as it will be computed at a
less per centage, if our bill should be adopted, and on
a far less aggregate amount. Then, as a general rule,
in a season of falling prices, it is not gains but losses
which must bo calculated at the end of the year. I
Therefore the tax on incomes and the dividends from |
banks and other corporations for the next year cannot ;
be expected to yield anything like the amount derived j
from those sources for the years ending December, |
18b4, and December, 1865, nor can our foreign impor- j
tations be maintained upon their present scale. It is XT „ , r n .. ^ n ...

On the 27th, the final debate took place. After
many speeches, Disraeli wound up on the side of the
Opposition, in a long and forcible speech, denouncing
Mr. Gladstone’s advocacy of American principles,
which he regarded as unfitted for England.
At 1 o’clock on Sunday morning Mr. Gladstone rose
and made the final speech, warmly defending the
American Government and denouncing the Opposi
tion's tactics. At 9 o'clock In the morning, amid ex

1 BANK FAILURE.
Washington, May 10.—As the investigation into the
Merchants’ National Bank of this city progresses the
more i9 the complete rottenness of the concern ex- ■. . . .. „——
hibited. It has transpired that, in addition to the ; g P® ec “ a 8 ains tthe biII, and was followed by a host of
Government losses already published, there were ; coni of lesser note.
$250,000 deposited at T. J. Hobbs, the disbursing
clerk of the Treasury Department. The indications
are that th<‘ wreck is complete, and the depositors will
get tittle or nothing
U. K. PAYMASTERS AND THEIR DEPOSITS.
The Herald s special says that unfavorable comment
is excited by the iikct of paymasters and others having
such large sums deposited in banks to their own
credit, and upon which they undoubtedly receive in
terest, while the Government is paying a high rate of in
terest on the same money, obtained on temporary loans
or'other wise. Several millions are reported to be thus
on deposit with national banks iu this city, within al
most a stone’s throw of the Treasury vaults.
THE CATTLE PLAGUE.
Well informed persons in regard to the matter as
sert that no less than 500 cows died in this district
and its vicinity during the last six months from the dis
ease known as the cattle plague. Some dairymen
have been compelled io abandon their business en
tirely, owing to the great mortality among their stock.
The disease, it is alleged, was introduced here from
Pennsylvania. The same authority states that the
prevalence of this disease accounts for the poor beef
to be found in the markets. The disease being in
curable, the cattle are killed as soon as attaoked and
sold to unsuspecting citizens.
PROM CALIFORNIA.
San Francisco, May 8.—A letter dated Mariposa
Mills, Arizona, April 18, states that Brevet Major
Charles F. Muller, Captain Cu^B, 14th United States
Infantry, and Assistant Surgeqn Tappan, U. S. A.,
were fired upon by Apaches at Cottonwood Springs,
March 22d, and the former was killed and the latter
badly wounded.
A dispatch received from New Westminster, reports
that new gold diggings paying nine dollars per pan,
have been struck on Clemen's Creek, near Big Bend
mines. Hundreds of boats are going up the .Colum
bia river laden with miners and provisions. It is ru
mored that the United States soldiers at Fort Calville
have deserted and gone to the mines, taking their
arms with them.
NEGRO RIOT IN BALTIMORE.
Baltimore, May 107—The first M iryland regiment
of Maryland colored troops returned home to-d.iy, and
made a handsome appearance. Whilst passing through
the western section of the oity a conflict occurred be

or two parties wounded.

CAPTURE BY FENIANS.
New York, May 10.—Captain McBurne, of the
because payment will at present bfe made chiefly in
United States bonds. Financial disaster, as well as
increased depression to our industrial interests can
not fail to tollow such an influx of foreign goods as wo
have witnessed the present season. That trade must
iu some clegree.be postponed until we recover from
the exhaustion caused by the war, imiil capital and
la11or can adjust itself to the new conditions of i British schooner Wentworth, from Windsor to this
peace, or until we have something to exchange " - -
for British, French, and German iron, wine and
haberdashery, besides our national credit. It
is right, however, to look for some increase of
revenue in consequence of the close of the
war, and we may expect something from the States
lately in rebellion, though not an amount in propor
tion to their relative numbers. Never fruitful in tax
able resources they have loss now than ever. We
obtain outside of commerce enough to cover the bills
already jiassed in oue or the other House. For extra
expenses on their account it will equftl my expecta
tions. Taking all these things into consideration, as
well as others not necessary to mention, the Commit
tee of Ways and Moans have felt willing to report the
bill as iiatandn. which willreduce taxation the present
year in round numbers about seventy-five millions of
dollars. It is also prudent to anticipate a large dimi
nution from customs, as it ought not to be expected to
long continue at double the amount ever obtained in
the most prosperous times. Our receipts from mis
cellaneous sources the coming year will be very light,
as they have recently accrued mainly from property
disposed of ar the close of the war and premiums on
sales of gold—sources already nearly extinct. Wo
seek to make some compensation for these losses by
increasing the tax on raw cotton three cents, or by
raising it from two to five cents per pound.' Supposing
that two millions of bales bo raised this season and be
taxed; and I thiiii: the amount will be considerably
greater, notwithstanding the actual want of good seed
and the changed system of labor. We ought to obtain
u revenue from this source of $44,01)0,000, or au in
crease over the tax at present enforced of $26,400,000.
Tiie crop may so tar exceed the number of bales men-
i ioued as to cover all the cotton which will escape tax
ation, or which will be used on plantations, and all
that will be exported in the shape of manufactures,
ami upon which a drawback will be allowed; but ii
will be safer to estimate the probable receipts on a
lower basis. All human calculations are subject to
contingencies, and financial calculations are, perhaps
most exposed to be shipwrecked of all. But if wo
retain the tax on cotton, as proposed, we can safely
aud orders.
THE GERMAN COMPLICATION.
. It is stated that an Austrian dispatch, delivered at
Berlin on the 26th, announced that Austria had not
immediately begun to disarm on accouut of fresh com
plications having arisen with Italy.
The semi-official Norde Deutsch Zeitung of the 26th
says: “Increased armaments of Austria forbid the
disarmament of the Prussian forces. Should Austria
attack Italy, Prussia could not consent to see the Ita
lian army disabled. Austria must reduce her estab
lishment to a peace footing an Italian aa well aa Prus
sian frontiers, or must otherwise expect an increase of
Prussian armaments.**
A Berlin dispatch says, a considerable time before
any war rumors, the military authorities made prepa
rations for a drill of the Landwehr. Consequently
about 40,000 men of the Landwehr will be assembled
for military .exercise in a few weeks.
ITALY AND THB GERMAN POWERS.
Vienna dispatches assert that Austria, in her latest
note to Prussia, declares her readiness to take the in
itiative in demobilizing, her troops. But the arma
ments in Italy compel her to take measures for the
protection of her frontier, especially the coast line.
Prussia is said to have declared she could not consider
the proposals of Austria for disarmament as serious,
while she arms against Italy, and that Austria must
re-establish status quo in Vienna if she expects Prus
sia to demobilize her troops.
The Vienna Abend* Post declares that Austria has
definitely determined upon adopting energetic mili
tary measures in Venetia.
The Paris Constitutionnel affirms that Italy has
neither made armaments nor effected concentrations
of troops, and savs the Emperor Napoleon earnestly
desires the maintenance of peace in every quarter.
It Is reported a decree has been issued placing the
Italian army on a war footing.
Great military preparations were making in Venetia.

W. F. HOLLAND,
niy 14-3 Accountant.
“Lord Derbyliae accepted the new oath which puts
Protestants, Catholics, Jews, and Nothingarians on
the same looting of simple loyalty to Queen Victoria
and the Protestant succession. Until 1829 it was the
law of England “that no member shall vote or sit in
either House till he Rath, in the presence of the
House, taken the oaths of allegiance, supremacy, aud
abjuration, and subscribed and repeated the declara
tion against transubstantiation and invocation of
saints and the sacrifice of the Mass,” while Jews and
infidels were required to swear on their true faith as
Christians.” All this is now swept away, and a mem
ber of the Parliament may now invoke the saints
through the entire oalender, and believe in everything
anything, or nothing. ”
Such modification of tbe oath from
one of Supremacy and Abjuration to one of
simple loyalty to the Queen and to the Pro
testant succession would not have been lis
tened to by the bigoted adherents of the
Monarch)’ only a short time since. It is an
evidence iia England of the rapid progress of
liberal opinions, .a progress in which England
has been more backward than several of the
States of the continent. It was after many
years discussion that the test and corpora
tion acts fell before the advance of enlight
ened toleration. Tho first step made in this
career of liberality the rest of the fabric of
bigotry and narrowmindedness soon fol
lowed.
COMING EVENTS.
A literary curiosity, says the New York
Post, has just appeared In London, under the
title of “Louis Napoleon the destined Mon
arch of the World,” Ac., by the Bev. M.
Baxter, author of “The Coming Battle.” It
is said that twelve thousand copies have been
sold, the book finding readers, notwithstand
ing its apparent absurdity, on account of the
noteworthy names used by the author as
authprity. To Mr. Baxter the world is in
debted for the cheerful news that all things
in this life are to end in 1873—so that people
may sot about their preparations for that
event as soon as they like ; but during the
brief idterval of six or seven years the Em
peror of the French is to become sole mon
arch of the world, personally representing
the Antichrist of the latter day. He is to
become supreme over England and most of
America, the rest of Christendom submitting
to his sway. He is to make a covenant with
the Jews, who by his aid are to return to Pal
estine, resume their rank as a nation and re
build Jerusalem. Napoleon is then to hecrin ? Hons were ,or f e - Whether few or many' they would.

The J ews are to be favored only for seven
years and two and-a-half months, and then
the great battle of Armageddon ia to take
place, in which Louis Napoleon (the “Great

a revelation more startling than any of Dr
Cummings’ inventions.

boy, who testified that-out of a large gang of
negroes which he'once owned, this boy was
weakest in point of intellect, save one. Tbe
witness thought him weak minded, but of
sufficient capacity to know right from wrong,
and tbat he believed tbat while he might not
have had a very clear perception of the mag
nitude of the offence, fsi that he knew that
it was a criminal and wrongful act. This was
all the evidence offered in tbe defence. The
counsel for the prisoner went to the jnry upon
a plea for a recommendation of mercy for
their-client, which by the terms of the law
would reduce tbe punishment to .imprison
ment in tbe Penitentiary for a term of years.
The Judge in his charge instructed the

HOUSE.
Washington, May 10.—The House resumed tho
consideration of the constitutional amendment re
ported by the Reconstruction Committee. Mr. Ran
dall, of Pennsylvania, addressed the Houbo in opposi-
liod to the measure : he wished the colored race iu
ihe Southern States were allowed some protection, as
it did in his own State ; but as he was not willing the
General Government should interfere in tho matter in
Pennsylvania, neither was he willing it should inter
fere ^fith it South. The injustice and enormity or the
3d section had been so thoroughly exposed by gentle
men on the Republican side, that he deemed it unne
cessary to say anything further about it than express
his views that the intention was to prevent the ‘ possi
bility of any Southern State voting for the amend
ment.
The whole scheme was one of procrastination and de
lay,looking to the exclusion of the Southern seats till af
ter the next Presidential election. The President’s plan,
on the contrary, was plain and simple, just and effec
tual, and, as he believed, acceptable to a vast majority
of the people North and South. The issue between
the President and Congress was made up tho ap
peal must be made to the people. He believed that
nothing could avert the speedy possession of the leg
islative branch of the Government be the conservative
men of the country under the lead of Andrew John
son.
Mr. Straus9, of Pennsylvania, followed on tbe same
side. He declared that the constitution was never in
tended to be plastered, and Congress should be ex
ceedingly cautious about tampering with it.
Banks, being the next speaker, said that he regard
ed this as the most important question that could've
presented to'Congress or the country. .He believed
that organization of government in the insurgent
States-could only be safely made by effecting a change
in the basis of political society in the Southern States,
If this was untouched it left the enemies of tho coun
try in a condition to renew the war. Therefore, no
proposition met his entire approval which did not ef
fect a radical cirakge in the basis of political society iu
these States. But' he did not expect the House to
adopt his opinions, nor would he insist on any one
theory of his own. He had no doubt that the Govern
ment of the United States had full authority to extend
the elective franchise to colored people of the South,
but he did not think it Jiad the power. The public
opinion of the country was such at this moment as
to make it impossible. He thought it wise on the
part of tho Committee ou Reconstruction to waive
that matter in deference to public opinion. While he
deemed provisions in regard to representation equita
ble, he did not think it expedient in his judgment. It
was no consequence whether the late reoel States had
fifty or flfty-eightfRepresentatives in the House. The
Southern people were governed by force, their philo
sophy was force, their practice was force, their tradi
therefore ho agreed cheerfully to the proposition.both
in purpose and phraseology, it did not seem to meet
the question at issue. It proved a proposition fo dis
franchise the enemies of the country. He thought it
right in principle, and necessary at this ‘time. He
did not care much whether the extension of the fran
chise to the negro was coupled with it. Although he
was iu favor of it, he- had no difficulty in rdgard to
supposed unfairness of disfranchising disloyal men
who had come within the terms of the Amnesty Pro-
c lain at ion, for he held that in .all proclamation s and
military conferences, the restoring of political rights
was carefully guarded against He did not agree with
Hie gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Garfield) aa to the im
practicability of enforcing disfranchisement, nor he
did not apprehend the* rejeoUon of the proposed
