The telegraph l^Hlus a brief report of an incendiary lire in last, afor^PPAQ^^^^Rksey & Jolwith were destroyed aud other iRfJWmQttged. It was also mentioned that a young Federal ^ soldier, named Charles W. Pay^, a native of W New Brunswick, N. Y., covered by a falling wall was Imi'ned <b deatl? In its account of the lire, flte Floridian says, by the unex pected fall af the wall, young Paytt, who with others was engaged in endeavoring to save property, was buried beueath a mass of rub R bish. Prompt elforte were made to extupate him as]well by officers and soldicra^of tht^egi- ment as citizens, but the flames were too Lot, and the poor fellow, amid the distress of the spectators and his own cries for help and groaus of suffering, was literally burned to death, dying a martyr to his zeal iu the effort to save tho property*of strangers. When it was formd that it was impossible . Uaxe^cue him. a suggestion was made that ho should be instantly killed by a blow from an uxe in the hands of a comrade, but he beg ged them nottodoit. Hope©!'ultimate safety, even in hi® desperate strait, did not desert him. His remains were rescued on Friday, and were buried in the afternoon ol that day, being followed ta the grave by a largo con course of citizens and soldiers, among the former of whom was the Governor of the 8tate. with many others of prominence. The deepest feeling was manifested for his terri ble fate, and the warmest sympathy felt for his bereaved relatives. Several clerks in the Be venue office at New Orleans have been stealing cotton per mits aud selling them on the streets. The idea is quite prevaleut iu Europe that J the vast war preparations of France are meant for more than national defence. Hon Alexander II. Stephens arrived in New York ou Friday evening last. He was called upon Saturday by Mayor Hoffman, aud other distinguished citizens. Captain Matthew F. Macby.—This gen tleman, says a Virginia paper, wili return from his long exile during the approaching summer, to accept a position in the Virginia Military Institute. A Washington dispatch Bays that Tbad. Stevens’ scheme for dividing up Texas, has not received the assent of a majority of the xecoustruction committee, nor will it. Florida Convention “Scrip.”—The Co lumbus Sun nays some idea of the value of scrip issued by. the Mule Team Convention may be gleaned from- the fact that one of the inernbere is said to have given one hun dred dollars for a bottle of whiskey, and several others took drinks to the tune of twenty dollars a piece. Commercial.—it is auuounced that a etcain*hip lias been put on the line between Feroandiua and New York, aud that she will leave the former port on her first trip March llth. We saw the statement in a Mobile paper a lew days since that it was in contemplation to establish forthwith & line of steamers between Cedar Keys and Mobile, with a view to tbe shipment of cotton by the Peninsular route from that oitynud New •Orleans to New York. A Caution.—A Northern journal calie at tention to the fact that some people never think of a revenue stamp when writing a letter ; yet some letters require stamping as much as a note or deed. Under the inter nal revenue laws, letters acknowledging the receipt of either drafts, checks or monty, exceeding twenty dollars, are subject to a stamp duly of two cents, the same as if a formal receipt had been given for so much money. This fact is sometimes forgotten, or is not knowu, even by good business men. Sergeant Bates —Tbi9 ex-Federal soldier, Who, it is &akl, has bet a large amount that he could make a trip on foot through the South, carrying the United States flag, with out a ceut of money, and be treated kindly, reached Columbus, Ga., ou Tuesday, aud - was received with demonstrations of kind ness. He left tor Macon yesterday morning. We should say, says tbe Sun, bis age i9 about thirty years. He la of medium height, . slimly built, and ha* a thin, frank, open and intelligent lace. His dress is of silk velvet, ’and around bis waist he wore, when on tbe inarch, a red sash. Yesterday be came from Crawford, where ho was welcomed most kindly. His baggage goes by rail, under charge of bis servant. IHNSATlORAIi HLSIOAS. Thft.fihbrte mtad every Where has been kept in a siatd of feverish excitement by the unfounded rumors in circulation that the President would call for a military force to execute his orders if he should be de posed by the United States Senate, or in other words be was about to perform some startling, undefioable coup d'etat. If auy thing were needed to correct tbe false im pression it might be found ia the well known fact that the President has no sympathy from the leading Generals of tbe army, and in a question of force, would have no great military chieftain to lean upon. But we are assured by the Washington correspondent of the Richmond Dispatch that there is not the slightest foundation for the sensational rumors to which we refer. He says he was authorized by the Presi dent himself to say that he has not, directly uor indirectly, called lor, nor intimated his pqrpose of fesorting to military aid iff the removal of Stanton and the appointment of Thomas ad interim. Every act that he has thus far performed has been within the civil law, as be aud Attorney General fciianbery understand the matter; and there would be no more authority of lavfe for calling upon the military through Grant, or auy of bis subordinates, to aid in tbe enforcement of orders thus far made, or proposed to be. made, in connection with the War Depar t ment controversy, than there would Ihj in calliug for the military in the first instance to enforce the judgment of a civil court in favour! creditor against debtor. The same correspondent says that the only use made of the military nrin in the War Department imbroglio by Si an ton hlmsejf, who placed aroun^the Wur Office a double guard of ai med soltjfeis to protect himself aud obey his (TMlers iff resistance ol the action of hie superior officer, the Presi dent of the United States. He closes his lengthy ijppalch, -written late on the evening of the 24lh instant, with tbe following statement of iacts, which will be read with interest : “From a condition of extraordinary ex citement and anxiety this morning, there has b^n a gradual transition throughout the day and until to-nigut, when we find the public mind comparatively calm, notwith standing tbe adoption of the impeachment resolution. The cause of this abatement of concern is attributable mainly to a. better general understanding of the situation. It is now apparsut to those who feared the President would resort to military force to sustain him and execute his orders, that be has bad no such purpose, and those who expeeted Congress to rush the impeach ment project to a finality, and depose, or attempt to depose, the President within ten days, as promised by some of the Radical members, now see olearly that the suggestions made by tbe correspondent last night are well founded—namely, that Judg« Chase cannot be induced to join in irregular ©r intemperate action in the Senate that at least a portion of the Re publican Senators will not consent to any improper or questionable proceedings, nor huriylng up to a conviction without giving ample time for preparation, argument, and deliberation, jeommensurate with the gravity of tbe trial and the dignity of the office tf President of the United States; i brief, that the trial will proceed regularly and that the decision of the Supre me C«mn will be first obtained before the Senate will take a final vote upon articles of impeach ment. Those who look for the end of the impeachment short of three or four months will, beyond doubt, be disappointed. The truth is these rnmors were started and circulated by Stanton and bis friends to injure Mr. Johnson, and weuken the Coo servattee party of the North.

FROM WASHINGTON Important Documents Dutroyei Mire—TIte Western WarkeU—'®wa Democratic Convention—A supposed , Conspiracy to Blow tip congress, sc. Washington, February 27.—The recent fire at the comer of 15th and F. streets, de stroyed a large amount of proof and docu ments in cotton cases, principally from Sa vannah and Charleston. The owners and counsel are inconvenienced. The Iowa Democratic State Convention elected delegates favorable to Pendleton, and instructed them to vote as such. The impeachment matter has made no progress to-dav. Several parties interested In Alabama's ad mission were before- the Reconstruction Committee to-day urging promptness. Senate.—Nothing generally interesting. The House bdl was presented for bridging the Ohio river at Paducab. A member of Illinois opposed the bill bceause tbe whole railroad system South guaged differently from Northern roads expressly in view of the seperation of tbe two sections. The passed. The bill for constructing a postal bridge over tbe Ohio at Licking River was passed. The civil appropriation bill was resumed. Speaker C dtax read to the House a letter from the Chief of Poliee ot New York to tbe Chief of Police of Washington, contain ing tbe statement that T. P. Shaffner had reported that one'hnudred and sixty pounds ot uiiro-glycerine was iu unauthorised hands. The New York Chief feared it was intended for Washington.

[feb28-H] P. so utterly forfeited the confidence of all pa triotic men, eo wholly degraded himself in the estimation of gentlemen that he thought he could escape the execration of the public by fixing its attention upon Mr. Johnson. No man possessing a spark of gentlemanly feel- iug would occupy a position when he is con- s’dered a spy and an obstruction; whon the President and his Cabinet will hold do inter course with him, officially or otherwise. But the shameless Stanton cares nothing lor character or dignity; he loves money and power, and holds on to benefit himself and his Radical friends. The Mulatioes in Atlanta are very busy pare filing out offices. The nigger or gans of k thut village are filled with sugges tions of the names of ignoianl and incompe tent pypte to rule aud represent the people «f Georgia.

The Baltimore- American of Friday sffys : Letters have been received by Mr. Cop- piuger, Corresponding Secretary of tue A mane a u Colonization Society, reporting the arrival of the Society’s superior packet ship Giolcoudn, at Monrovia, December "24th, after a pleasant passage of thirty-six days from Charleston, South Carolina. The large - party of emigrants she safely carried out were well, and delighted with their adopted homes in Liberia. The Golconda was to leave the African coast, about the 20th of January,and may be expected soon to arrive st Baltimore. She will be provisioned at that vPpn sod call at Savannah, where she will take in the most of tbe intending emigrants. Some.tbree thousand »,f the thoughtful aud enterprising tteedmen have applied for pas sage,-and numbers are petitioning Congress for It© means to reach and sbute in that growing Republic. Giant Phantoms on the Battle Ground of Nashville.— Moat of our readers know the location of three bald headed hills—ien- dered so by the ravages of the late war lying between the Charlotte pike and tho riv er, in sight of and some two miles distant from the capitol. The outer lines of tho Federal works may still be scon along their sides and crests, bat there are no houses, trees, or fences, to further break tbe dull monotony of their outlines. Let aoy one who is desi rousof witnessing a most startling natural phenomenon, which throws the mirage of the plains and the mist visions of the Scot tish coast entirely in the shade, ascend the central mound in a dinefc line from the city, on any clear day, about an hour by sun’. When half way up the declivity lie will s- e other hills, palpable *even to crass clumps aud little stones, gradually rising in tbe air, beyond the ones he is ascending. If be pauses, these huge phantoms remain stall, ary; if he advances, they continue to rise before biin, uutil within a frw yards of tbe entrenchments, when they suddenly vani-h into nothingness, like sceoes in a dissolving view. How long this strange freak of mis: and sunlight has beld court near us it is im possible to say, for except some supersti tions whisperings of negroes, uothiug lraa been definitely known until within the past week.—Nashville Dispatch, 16th. Moral and Material.—A correspondent of the Louisville Courier draws the follow ing conclusion from a series of uudeniable propositions : The conclusion derived from the foregoing considerations is, that man’s moral develop ment largely depends upon his material pro gress. and that the true means of improving his condition is to secure him the satisfaction of his corporeal wants with the least expen diture on bis part of time and labor,so that he may have the necessary leisure for spiritual and mental improvement. A vast amount of bodily labor and of physical endurance and exertion is certain ever to be required of man. And it is good for bira that it should be so. But when the “daily bread" has been earned, religion aud reason alike demand that there should be time and op portanity afforded to the bread-winner to seek lor “manna from heaven.” Moreover, intelligent labor and brute labor arc as dis tinct, one frojji the other, as are man and beast. And the aim and mission ol civiliza tion is to exalt the immortal part of bur nu tate.

Second district—Col. David Hedto-i, of Ohio. Fourth district—Col. J. T. DeWeese, of Illinois. It is said that J. li. iiairis (negro) was first nominated, but declined, giving as a reason that Radicals in Congress did not wish negroes elected to that body. i , South Carolina. lUrflca] Convention,&c, Charleston, February 27.—The Conven tiou yesieiday passed seventeen sections of the judiciary article. The judges will be elected by iho Legislature. Equity, district and probate courts are abolished. A etrong effort was made for the election of judges by the people, but fuiled. A resolution was adopted tendering the thanks of the loyal people of South Carolina to Congress, Grant and Stanton. Some ne groes opposed it. Tho committee ot two colored delegates have returned lrom Washington with the in formation that the Republicans did not wish for ti.e election of colored Congressman. The State is to be re-divided into Con gressional districts, with six representatives instead of four. There is a great rush for offices.
