JOHNSTONE, Editor and Publisher Mercantile Index. Savannab, Aug. 23, 1866. SAVANNAH PRICES CURRENT. Tile proprietor o^ the News and Herald has long regretted his inability, to secure tlic services of a competent person to conduct his local commercial department, but has now secured the services of Capt. Geo. H. John stone, publisher of the Mercantile Index, who will furnish full market reports for this journal, and also edit a weekly letter sheet Prices Current, to be issued from this office. While publishing the Index, we believe bis Prices Current had much the largest circula tion and best reputation among the mer chants, of any in the city, being remarkable for its accuracy and general acceptability. We propose to devote all reasonable space, and every exertion to the production of a re liable and complete financial and commercial article each week, and the publication of any important changes each day. Orders should be left to-day, if possible, at our counting room, in order that the cards of patrons can be inserted. The Prices Cur rent for this week will be ready for delivery on Friday afternoon at two o’clock. THE ITALIAN OPERA. We take pleasure in informing our readers that the Ghioni and Susini Opera Company, whose performances last season attracted snch brilliant audiences, will again visit our city in a few weeks. The Theatre has been engaged for the second week in October. The Troupe has been considerably enlarged, as we are informed, and that in addition to the artists who have already visited us,others of nearly fifty performers. The principal ar tists already secured are the fullowiug : Madame Angiolina Ghioni, M’lle Pauline Canissa, Madame Patti Strakosh, Signor Ettore Irfre, the principal Tenor of the N. Y. Academy of Music; Signors Errani,Maria, Coletti and Susini. We are promised several novelties, among which the latest New York sensation, Crispino e la Comare. The Man ager, as before, will be Mr. Max Strakosck. THE RETIREMENT OF MR. STANTON. The speculations of the press seem to be endless with regard to the probable future position of the present Secretary of War. The latest we have seen is that put forth by the usually reliable correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, who, after noticing the con Aiding rumors, admits that Mr. Stanton's intimate friends say that he has expressly and unequivocally given his approval of the action of the Philadelphia Convention, and that he has wheeled into line regularly in support of its measures and purposes, and that he will not withdraw from the Cabinet. This is freBh from Mr. Stanton. But it is conceded by most excellent authority that Mr. Stautou will withdraw from the Cabinet in a few days, possibly not until the President returns from Chicago, and that be will receive the ap pointment of Minister to Spain. Mr. Joliu- son cannot be indifferent to lire immense iu- Auential pressure for the removal of Stantou, and it is probable that as a. means of letting the Secretaryd6wt»easy; the missiou to Spain THE vpu, TEIDI. Notwithstanding the prevalence ol cholera in New York, the papers th<p speak en couragingly of the opening ot the fall trade. In some branches the season has commenced briskly, a considerable number of buyers be ing present from the South and West; but they are mostly of the class of small pur chasers.' The freedotn-of "gaTtftfirtTr TTWH1 cholera, and the good health of that city in comparison with those north ot it, has to a certain extent influenced purchasers to stop there. The papers make the most inviting allusions to the yery largie importations in that ofiitock Arrival of the President market, and th& railsfipidfiltock on hand, and claim that under present circumstances goods to a luge extent qai be^hld inf lie Baltimore maritit cheaper <ban fit hoywiier seaboard point. The question whether qt not Savannah is to have a fall trade of considerable propor tions, hag been considerably discussed, and perhaps eveiy cqqfudm)imb&s been con sidered upon ike question. "The time is near by for subjecting it to the test of practical demonstration. How long the cholera iq to assume an epidemic form, and is gradually diminishing in virulence and fatality, it is reasonable to presume that its existence in any form will be of short duratiou. Even in the event that it should continue for a while longer in its present mild form, we will be isn&annstnw;:: see no reason why we should not secure at least, our custoraory proportion of the trade; while on lli^ other liqnd,,. jf we, are iigfriqate eno to gef lid <Sjf:«jd«fUe i anticipated by our phySlcmtfs, we doubtediy secure a much larger proportion- of the trade than ever before. The stocks that will lie onjutpd in ^|ew^yswill be in comparably larger anil finer tbau. at any pre vious period, and should tbe same quantity ol goods be demanded this fall as last, it is estimated that the difference in the quality of the goods required will, add at loft, fi^y per cent, to the amotint ofbusinoss do frit.' 11 Last year the bulk of the sales consisted purely of staple goods, as the limited pecu niary resources of the South barely sufficed to provide articles of prime necessity. This year a little nearer approach he comfort style will be made, and, if fortune smiles upon their efforts, we mif, before many sea sons, hope to find our people again in the market selecting the best and finest of every thing. There are two things, however, which should not bo overlooked by merchants and people. We allude, of course, to credit and overtrading. This is just the period when overtrading, if -exfrartrely premised,Jfa /Cer tain to precipitate a disastrous financial crisis; and too easy credits are a certain stimulus to an excessive trade. Bayem with veady qash awyMot.nJfc-aJ-srlx- secured, but recklessness in grautiug credits is going much too far in the other extreme. Our dry goods jobbers stand strongly, al though they have mode little money the last few months; but neither they nor the whole sale grocers can afford to distribute a large stock, at present rates, broadcast over the country, and trust their harvest entirely to a future ingathering of collections. With the subsidence ot. the, disease which only lingers in a few suburban localities, re mote from the business portion of tbe city, and the completion of the Florida connec tion, which will be in a few weeks, the as|iect of business will be promising, and our city will begin to resume its wonted business ac tivity and cheerfulness, amid ttie din and WASHINGTON ONDIT8 It.is yiM«i in' some quarters, says a Washington dispatch, that the Government acted in tad fiiitfe towards Mexico, by wink ing at tbe violation of onrown laws, and the laws of nations, and our treaty with Mexico, in the case of the Wallace fillibustering ex pedition. Tbe recent proclamation of the ognizes our neutrality, and denounces the act of'Hfrfiuqifan as g, viola^ow o{ qafioipil, law and existing treaty stipulations. This is Government has. covertly sided filliboste? ex It is believed that an explanation ean be fonod of this matter, and that the expedi tion that departed from jCYew York was not without government sanction, and had in view a legitimate object • >■ The rumor is revived very .strongly that Geo. Grant Will be called to the bead of tbe War Department as acting Secretary, while tbe President will take tiow.fbr a permanent appointment. Mas Stanton, it is believed, will be offered the mission to Sgain. Removals from office ou “national grounds’! are going; briskly on. Tbe matter is mncli simplified by tbe plan adopted. All trouble and hesitation are 'saved to tbe heads of de partments by transferring the responsibility of ejections lor removals and appointments to the delegations representing their respec tive Stated at tbe Philadelphia Convention. Thus tlui Postmaster General, upou the sug gestion of tbe Maine delegation, has removed a dozeq dr more postmasters in that State.

But, remarkable as it may seem, It is unquest ionably oply the coipoieueemeut of a general move ment of specie in the same direction. To which the Tribane replies If. we were paying for the specie by an overplus of National Debt, HohW>y us to foreign baukere and cap italists lor Jess than thrqe4dnrtlm of its face, though payable for our children in gold, with gold interest meantime at six per cent., tbe importation of specie from Europe must be deeply regretted. It is the pur chase of temporary ease iu our money market at a heavy ultimate cost—jt is the prodigal achivcmcut ol* fritwnt luxury by drawing bills of ruinous discount lgamet Ms futarq earnings. It in only the debasement Of our currency which hides from careless view that our bond, which seem to be at 1U per cent, premium, are really at 40 or. 50 per cent discount- and that we are selling them by mil- •11 oils at this rate to foreigners who will require tw to pay them to the utmost far tiling.

RATIFICATION MEETING IN MEMPHIS Tbe Memphis Avalanche of tbe 26lh, con tains an account nearly four columns in .length, of a grand mass meeting in Memphis to ratify tbe action of the Philadelphia Con vention. It was the largest gathering seen in that city for many years. Gen. N. B. For rest was called to the and' 'flp: taking his seat delivered a short Bind seiisifiie dress, from wh : ch we make the following extract: will be tendered to Vim. The National Ckmstbniks.—<jtfarterinas- ter-General Meigs has published, by author ity of the Secretary of War, says a Washing ton paper, the names of soldiers who died in defence of the American Union, interred in the National Cemeteries at Fortress Monroe and Hampton,' Virginia. It M the intention of the officers on doty at the Fort, to erect a monument to the memory of the deceased. The Qnartermaster-General has also pub lished the “Roll of Honor,” or names of those whose remains are interred in the Eastern District of Texas, Central District of Texas, Rio Grande District, Department of Texas, Camp Flood Tyler, Texas, and Cor pus Cbristi, Texas. Scattered as these places are over a large extent of territory, it was not considered advisable to disinter the re mains and remove them to a Central Ceme tery. Affairs in Havana.—A dispatch says the quarantine sf fifteen days lately established at Havana Is rigidly enforced, according to advices received recently. Vessels from Europe are also put under observation for a number of days. Considerable excitement and rejoicing is caused by tbe energetic ac tion of tbe Captain-General in exiling for life to the Island of Fernando Po a number—one hundred and sixty in all—of notorious crimi nals and bad characters. The beneficial effects of this wise proceeding were already apparent, not only, la (he diminution of crime, but aleo in inspiring the troublesome charac ters remaining with a wholesome fear of a similar fate. “ You have assemb’ed to express your approbation or disapprobation of tbe priinbultm qf >nd •coflHtlttUional joietmnldt Sesame iiooa andwddrefui weftt forfii IftT Ji# tfHufll li j 1 by tbe late Philadelphia Convention.

Pennsylvania has more miles of railroad than any other State, reporting 3,350 miles, and during 1865 it constructed more miles of rail road than New York and New England com bined. Ohio ia the second State, wifrt 3,310 miles, and Dlinois the third, with 3,166 These returns do not include bone railroads- The Dnooth is Gkohsia—A letter from Cleveland, Tennefsee, Aug. 17th. gives Use following account of suffering and destitution in that section; , , “Tbe destitution among this people is alarming, and how they are (o subsist the coming winter we cannot see. In this con nection we would mention tbe failure of the crops throughout the whple country,'em bracing an area from this place to Chatta nooga, taking in large portions of Northern Georgia. This has caused the negrojpopula- tion in many instances to seek habitations in towns and cities, and especially in this place, as it is nearest to there. In the past’eight- weeks there has been no ipin, and there are hundreds of acres of corn and pasture fields, if set on fire, would burn like so mnch straw. The people are alarmed as to Where their bread is to come from for another year, andflheir alarm is not without foundation. They have worked With more than ordinary energy, without 4 hope of remuneration, by bounteous yields. We understand that the northern purtion of Georgia a isven m a worse condition than this locality, vfbe cholera is also killing the bogs, what few was left at the close of tbe war, along the river, above Chattanooga, ia Hamilton coun ty. Many people both white, and black, have suffered in this section Ih consequence of the scarcity of provisions, the real neces sities of life, during tbe past spring and summer, and for their crops to prove ' ure, it is distressing.” fail- PROGRESS OF SPIRITUALISM. A special dispatch to the New York Tri bune, the organ of all the isms, announces that the convention of spiritualists which as sembled in Providence, R. I., on the 20th inst., resolved itself into a permanent na tional organization “ for the spreading of the truths, tacts and philosophy of spiritualism, by sending out and supporting lecturers, fos tering schools aud childrens’ lyceums, and circulating spiritual literature among tbe people." A Dr. Randolph, hailing from Louisiana, was a member of the convention, and among other matters brought before tbe convention was a communication from the Louisiana freedmen,seeking for an increase of educational facilities among the colored pop ulation of the South. We may expect to see a Bmeau established for the propagation of the isms ot New Eng land at the South. lated that over oue hundred thousand per sons will attend the Soldiers' and Sailors’ Convention, at Cleveland, Ouio, on the 17th day of Septemlier. The Convention will be held in tbe Park, the main stand for speak ers to be erected alongside the Perry monu ment. ’ The Convention will be organized on Monday, the 17th, but tbe next day will be the great day of the Convention. It is pro posed to make Gen. Dix President of the Convention. Messrs. Cowan, Doolittle, Randall aud Blair have agreed to stump the State ot Mich igan prior to the November elections in that Slate.
