It is now stated, on the authority of the [ Washington correspondent of the Phila- i delpkia Age, that the House Committee on ■ i {'d -sr>* 1 the Judiciary will soon submit a report, iu - * ’ ,ri - vr> ' ' ; which they will attempt to connect Mr. A tusertlon, $1.50, eaeh inser- ; J 1 o' 1 s i Davis with the assassination of Mr. Lincoln. It is said that General Grant will be nomi nated for President by the Negro Suffrage Convention at Philadelphia in September.— cept a nomination from the- Republican party. He expresses himself strongly in favor of the Constitutional amendment. A proclamation from the President announc ing the restoration of Texas to the LTnion, and declaring in unequivocal terms the abolition of martial law in t he South, may be looked for in a day or two. It is understood that the President will cot nominate Postmaster General Dennison’s successor for some time yet. The duties of the office will be discharged iu the interim by Mr. Randall, the Fiist Assistant Postmaster- General. He is still prominently mentioned as the next head of the Post Office Depart ment. It is thought, however, that, he will succeed Harlan iu the Interior Department, and the Postmaster-Generalship will be tendered to Hon. Montgomery Blair, al though, as stated yesterday, he is said not to be a candidate. ?

Mr. Cole is a New Englander by birth aud education, hut has resided in or near Marietta, ic this State, for upwards of twenty years—duriug which period, by speculation and the execu tion of fat contracts on the Western A At lantic Railroad be accumulated a very handsome fortune. He waB* formerly a Henry Clay Whig, and, if I am not mistaken, acted wit the Co-operation party of Georgia in the campaign of 18. r >9-’60. He has always, since my first acquaintance with him in ISIS, been a decided Union man ; and, although possessing some of the disgusting character istics peculiar to tlie people of the section whence he hails, was genially respected by the people among whom he resided. He was bitterly opposed to secession, and conse quently to the war growing out of it. 1 learn that during the war he rendered himself ob noxious to our military authorities, by whom he was arrested and Bent a prisoner to Rich; mond. I know nothing, however, of the immediate cause of his arrest, or of the period of his detention by the Confederate authorities. Mr. Cole, 1 believe, still resides in Marietta. Respectfully yours, C. li. H. The Ante of Africa. 1 do not think, says Du Chaillu’s work, that they build a neat or home of any kind.

Several millions were received in this way, but the Secretary of War declined to to be still in the Treasury. By tlie action of the House to-day ihe rights vested by the act above mentioned have been taken away, aud no compensation can now be obtained by loyal masters, who in many instances ad vised their staves to enlist in the service of the United States. V \ew SenHitt . ille Dispatch gives the following The Republican Caucus.-- A correspond ent of the New York Tribune says: “The Union caucus to-night to-night (Thursday) was attended by members of both Houses, and its proceedings were of the most impor tant character. The question of adjourn ment coming up, Senator Lane ol Indiana, spoke warmly nud excitedly. While he favored an early adjournment he hoped something would be done to prevent the threatened displacement of Union office holders, and the substitution of Copperheads , in their place. Senators Conncss aud Wil- on also spoke op this subj j said he had tried hard to keep from believing that the President had gone over to the Copperheads, but lie was nott fully con vinced that his worst fears were being real ized. The most exciting events of tlie cau cus was a debate on the Philadelphia Con vention, which called Mr. Raymond to his feet. In answer to inquiries as to the object of the N. Y. Times in endorsing the Conven tion, Mr. Raymond said that when be endorsed the call it was with the distinct undeistanding that nouc but Union men were to participate in Ihe Convention.

R., ( j ’ : .J£y I? 1806. ) Ethkoe Sataknah News atD Herald, Dear Sis:—Our village, nsualfy quiet, was thrown into a state of considerable excite ment on Saturday afternoon last by the en actment of one, of the most horrible tragedies it has been my uiislortune to witness. The parties to the affair were A. J. Purslev and W. IV. Smith. It appears that a feeling of animosity has existed between them for sev eral mouths, and perhaps mutual threats had been made.; at any rate, Smith (who lives some miles off ! came here on Saturday and after passing each other frequently, they met iu a^tbrJ, 'when some inuueudoes were indulged iu, and before the bystanders were aware pt, it th«y--botb being armed, Smith with a ilonble-barreled gun and Pnrsley with a Colt’s navy pistol had commenced firing. Pnrsley was shot in the left side below the rib witli the entire contents of one barrel, which ranged obliquely to the right hip. He expired in a few minutes, nof, however, uu til he had discharged two barrels of his pis tol. Smith .’eft immediately. 1 understand he received a slight wound in one of his arms. A warrant has been issued for the arrest of Smith. I presume, if taken, the case will undergo legal examination, and I therefore refrain from giving the various rmnors ailoat in relation to the matter. The farming interest in this section has suffered very material injury from the drought. We are receiving very grateful showers now, and hopes are entertained that the languishing crops will revive and make somewhat after all. Yours, Ac., Spectator.

The scenes of anarchy and confusion through which we have passed, I hope will never return, and I con gratulate my' fellow-citizens that military rule has once innro given place to civil law, and the courts are again thrown open for the redress of grievances aud " Justice. This Court is vas created in aud by Assembly of the Htsto passed and approved on the seventeenth of March ot this present year. Its powers are nu merous and extensive, aud it lias concurrent juris diction with the Superior Court iu ait all p-ases in which exclusive Jurisdiction is not by Isw vested In some otber Court.

These tunnels are four or five feet coder ground, and are only used in the beat of the day or during a storm. When they grow hungry, the long file spreads itself through tbe forest in a front line, and attacks and devours all it overtakes with a fury that is quite irresistible. The elephant and the gorilla fly before this attack. Tbe black men run for their lives. Every animal that lives in their line of march is chased. They seem to undeistand aud act upon the tactics of Napoleon, and concentrate with great speed their heaviest forces upon the point of attack. In an in credible short space of time the mouse, or dog, or leopard, or deer is overwhelmed, killed, eaten, and the bare skeletons ouly left.

Gov. Hamilton, ol Texas, addressed the caucus iu strong denunciation of the policy ol the President, speaking of its bad results iu his own State aud elsewhere throughout the South. A resolution pledg ing those present to secresy was passed, and the caucus adjourned, after appointing a Committe of nine to consider the subject of takiDg a recess till December, or adjourning to report at the next caucus, tbe time for which was not fixed. The correspondent of the New York World gives some further ludicrous incidents of the Radical caucus. The writer says while they were debating the resolution of secrecy a man was espied seated in the gallery. Tliad. Stevens cried out, “Damn him, bring him down here ; he's a newspaper reporter or an agent of the Frcedmen’s Bureau.” In a few moments the doorkeeper brought tbe un lucky individual to the bar of the house, where he proved to be a negro half fright ened to death. “How did you get in here?” asked a dozen members: “Come in tie the," replied the fieedman. He was again asked it he did not know this was a caucus. The con'raband replied, with the white ol his eye in a fine frenzy rolling, that he did not know what a caucus was. He thought this was Congress. Several members said he was the Tribune correspondent, and on this charge he was quickly hustled out. It appears that, when the yeas and nays were called on the resolution declaring that no Republican ?T a £L r rw em '" it ' voukl support the Phila- dC A P t wd re Rl y®°nd sat in hi9 seat and declined to answer t„ his name. Judge Hate, of the Essex District, alone voted against the resolution. Anderson, of Mis souri, said it would be worth t en thousand votes to the Republican party to kick Ray mond out of the caucus. Among the most revolutionary speeches made in the caucus was one from BoutwelJ, of Massachusetts who intimated that he had been informed by Seward that if the Southern representatives were not admitted to Congress, the Presi dent intended to recognize them and the Democratic members as the Constitutional Congress, and turn the radical fection out of the Capitol. very useful (as well as dangerous) to the ; pllcat j 0 ns t„ enforce performance, or for other pur- negroes who have their huts Cleared of all poses; also, applications for the eviction of trespassers, the abounding vermine, such as immense J cockroaches and centipedes, at least several t ra ^_ Ul i pro i: S Juiiia midarqutress warrants, ha ■ times a year.

The negroes relate that criminals were, in former times, exposed in the path of the ant, as the most cruel munner of putting them to death. Pensions in the Southern States. —The following has just qeen promulgated: In resuming the execution of the pension laws in the several States heretofore in insur rection, the Secretary of the Interior directs that attention be drawn to the following act of Congress: An act authorizing the Secretary of the In terior to strike from the pension rolls the names of such persons as have taken up arms against the Government, or who may have in any manner encouraged the*rebels. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States iu Con gress assembled, That the Secretory of the Interior be, and he is hereby authorized and directed to strike from the pension rolls tbe names of all such persons as have or may hereafter take up arms against the Govern ment of the United States, or who have in any manner encouraged the rebels, or mani fested a sympathy for then cause. Approved Feb. 4, 1862.

Abont a month ago a servant girl in Mr. Higgs’ service was tying up the dog, when the animal bit her on the right tbnmb. She experienced no se rious results until Tuesday, when her arm, thumb and chest became considerably swol len, accompanied with great heat, pain, red ness, stiffness and numbness, the arm being so stiff that she was almost unable to move it. Mr. Higgs sent for Mr. Pope, surgeon of this town, who saw the girl on Thursday, d ~ ‘ Spurious Currency.—The Treasury De partment rejects daily from 31,800 to $2,500 spurious currency and bills received as mu tilated for redemption from the South.
