If enterprise consists in deliber ately violating a solemn agreement, then we are quite content to be regarded as deficient: _ . J »ly 31. 1873-8:30 a. m. Col. Alston: Mr. Maddox broke faith with me in regard to writing out notes of the Bishop's disconrse. l am ready, if necessary, to make affidavit that it was the understanding between ns, clearly and definitely determined, and thrice (at intervals) reiterated, that we would not “touch a pencil” to the report last night. I so reported to Mr. Grady afterwards at the Herald otfice, as I informed yon in the Rep resentatives’ Hall. His report is nearly verbatim. Shall I write out my notes ? Yours, _ Grigsby. Mr. Barr, cur agent at Washington, sends us a very tiresome correspondence to-day, be tween some South Carolina gentlemen and the Attorney General. Too much praise can not be given these gentlemen for the trouble they have taken in this matter. History searcely furnishes a parallel in ferocity or malice, to the persecution of the alleged South Carolina Kn-Klux. and w. are glad to see that the President has at last announced through his long-winded Attorney that he is at last disposed to clemency. Ode despatches from Spain this morning contain stirring and startling news, which will be read with interest by our nnmerons .ere. H. I. Kimball and the Northern Banks. It seems that the publication of Kimball’s liabilities has created some distrust among the stockholders of the various monied insti tutions named in the long catalogue, and signs of their uneasiness already begin to come to the surface. It was rumored in New York last Friday that the failure of Kimball wonld affect the Brooklyn Savings Bank, and the Fulton Bank. The President of the Fulton Bank said that his institution had never loaned Kimball a dollar, but bad loaned the State of Georgia $35,000 on bonds to pay the Legisla ture. These bonds were issued under Bul lock’s administration, but are held to be valid by the present authorities, and will be paid. The Bollock railroad bonds ore considered fraudulent, and the State has declared that it will never redeem them. Governor Smith, of Georgia, had stated recently that a general State bond would be issued to cover the valid indebtedness, and the bonds held by the Ful ton Bank wonld be received in exchange. The teller of the Brooklyn Savings Bank which was reported to hold $100,000 of the Bullock-Kimball fraudulent paper, asserted that the bank had never held a Georgia Slate bODd, and never loaned a dollar to Kimball. The Tribune says: Considerable indignation exists among those persons who have been published as creditors tor heavy amounts of the defaulting Georgia swindler, H. I. Kimball, whose failures oc curred two years ago. Application to several of those mentioned elicited iho information that they were either not interested or their interest was for lesser amounts. A member of > leading banking house, who are said to have been creditors for a large sum, stated that he supposed the figures very exaggerated in many cases. With respect to his own nonse, the transaction was one of some years pnat, and had been liquidated bv the sale of •ecurities left as collateral against the loan, The Times, always the apologist and de fender of Henry Clews, says: In the statement which appeared in our news columns yesterday, giving a list of H. I. Kimball A Co.'s creditors, the amount of indebtedness to Henry Clews A Co. shonld have been stated at $100,000. not a million, as an absurd misprint made it appear. Against this $100,000 the firm of Clews & Co. holds ample security. It was also a foolish mis-statement to attribute Mr. Kim ball s failure to that firm, since there was no agreement on their part in any way obliging them to provide Mr. Kimball with money to carry on his transactions. Mr. Kimball’s failure took place some two years ago, and the house of Clews A Co. is no way respon sible for it, and will not be losers by itr- Meanwhile the great developer and cham pion bankrupt of the age is summerin'' at Newton, Mass., while the extent of his debts is being published *o an admiring world. “ ^SfW9“»W6ai»nce <rf cerb. ornaments exhibited in the windows of Munich have recently at tracted great attention, and, after careful in vestigation, it appeared that the objects were merely plaster casts, covered with a film of finely-divided mica.

Correspondence Between Attorney-General and Kershaw’s Committee—The Gov ernment Committed to a Milder Course. Washington, July 31, 1873. To Hon. Geo. H. Williams, Attorney-General: Sib—After our correspondence with you, we pro ceeded to Long Branch, and were prompt y accorded an interview with President Grant, which waa in all respects cordial and satisfactory. The President ex pressed views of clemency similar to those previous ly expressed by you, and said he would address you a note defining the present policy oi the govern ment in relation to the prosecutions and prisoners under the enforcement act. We beg to renew the sug gestion already made that the purposes of the gov ernment in the premises be made public, so all con cerned, p rticularly refugees, may have authentic in formation from the proper official source by which they may be able to govern themselves. Such official announcement will, in our opinion, produce a great sense of relief. We are, with great respect. Your obedient servants, W. B. Porter, £. R. Kershaw, B. M. Sims. Mwtwrvrwr ar Jitaftr*. Washington, July 31, 1873. Messrs. Porter, Kershaw and Sims, Washington: Gents—Your letter of yesterday, intended to elicit from mo a public expression oi the policy of the Gov ernment in relation to the prosecutions and prisoners under the enforcement acts, is received, and I have to cay in answer, as indicated in his conversa tion with- you, the President has communicated to me what I have heretofore understood to be his wish that the persons accused and convicted of of fenses under said acts should be treated with as much lenity as possible, without prejudice to the ends for which tney were passed. It must, however, be dis tinctly understood that this action by the Government is not prompted by any doubt as to the necessity or validity of said acts, or of the necessity and justice of the convictions already had under these Enforce ment Acts, to punish and prevent high crimes but by the belief that the Ku-klux Klans have through said convictions been almost if not altogether broken up, and that those who were concerned in or sympathized with them have come to see the folly, wickedness and danger of all such secret or ganizations. You have been pleased to say to me and similar assurances have been given by others seeking the same object, that Executive clemency at this time in the Ku-Klux cases wonld tend to remove many causes of nneasiness and irritation now exist ing, and conduce generally to the public peace and tranquility,'and the proposed action is taken in refer ence to such cases with the full expectation that these assurances will be verified. You are in formed that tbs prosecutions now pending n the courts for the violatlojs of the Enforcement acts, which will be suspended or discontinued, and instructions to that effect have already been given to several District Attorneys, but there may be excep tional cases of great aggravations, where the Govern ment will insist on conviction and punishment. There are, however, but few of such cases now within my knowledge where persons have absented themselves on account of their complicity, or supposed com plicity, in the Ku-Klax offense*, are at liberty to re turn, and unless their crimes bring them within the above named exceptional cases, these will not be pros ecuted. Many of those sentenced to imprisonment for such offenses, have been already par doned, and the cases of the others are under consideration, and will propatly be disposed of in a like manner, keeping in view the proper relation, but ween their innishment and the nature of their guilt. To avoid a-y misconstruction of these proceedings, it is, perhaps, necessary for me to say that all conspiracies and outrages in violation of said acts hereafter committed will be prosecuted with all possible energy and vigor, and it is to be un derstood that the government does not intend to abandon such acts, but induce, if possi ble, a willing obedience to their reasonable! re quirements, substantially they arc intended to protect citizens of the UDitcd States in the possession and en joyment of their political and civil rights guaranteed to them by the late amendments to the Constitution, and the President, whose duty it is to sec that the laws are faithfully executed, would l*e recreant to that duty if he did not so administer the Government as to afford to all citizsns the equal protection of its laws. I have added these suggestions to the inior* mat ion for which 3 ou ask, with a sincere hope that by the exercise of a mutual recognition of each other’s rights by all classes of people, no farther ne cessity will arise for tbeir protection and enforce ment under faid acts, through the action of the gene ral Government. Very respectfully, G. H. Williams, Attorney-General. Prosecution# to be Stopped—A Glimpne of Mercy at Last. Washington, July 31, 1873. Attorney General Williams, replying to a committee 1 behalf of the Kn-Klux prisoners, says: “You informed that the prosecutions now pending in the courts, for the violation of the Enforcement Acte, will be suspended or discontinued, and instructions to that effect have already been given to several District Attorneys. But there may be aggravated cases wbare the Government will insist upon convicttou and pun isbment.” POLITICAL. Meeting of the Virginia Radical Convention. HUGHES, SCALLAWAG, NOM INATED FOR GOVERNOR.

A Great Time in Danbury. [THE REASON WHY MR. o’CLABENCE DID NOT APAEAR IN THE FIREMEN’s P COCESSION. From the Danbury News. The firemen had a parade on Saturday. It was a fine affair, but the absence of Mr. O’Clarence was deeply felt, not only by the department, but by the public. His long and faithful service at the business meetings and festivals, aud his splendid bearing on pa rade, have given Mr. O’Olarencc an enviable position in the hearts of his countrymen. We are sorry he was not present on Saturday. But an unlooked for and very painful acci dent deprived him and us of that pleasure. The night which preceded the last anniver sary of our national independence, be took home twenty-five dollars’ worth ot fireworks for a splurge on the next night. He calcu lated he had glory enough in that package to fill with gratitude and admiration every tax payer on North street, and his wife, after carefully examining the lot, was equally cou- fident that the neighbors would see something that would “make their eyes bung out,” as she pensively expressed it. The next morning O’Clarence got out the bundle to look it over again, and feed on the anticipation. There were those cannon crackers—several packs—and roman candles, and blue-fire, and pinwheels, and rockets and the like—a very creditable assortment for any family. Mr. Wickford’s boy from tho next house was in, and sat on the floor holding a piece of lighted punk in his hand, and had both his eyes and mouth wide open enjoying the sight. O Clarence was sitting on ’ his haunches, holding a pinwheel in his hand, aud explaining to Mrs. O’Clarence how cheap ly they could be made in China, and how su perior in ingenuity and industry were the Chinese to all other races. None of them knew how it happened, but O’Clarence re members that there were two open packs of cannon crackers just under him, and thinks Wickford’s boy must have in some way drop ped the punk in among them, and in the gen eral interest forgot that it was afire. ■At any rate, there was a sudden hiss, right under Mr. O’Clarence, followed in the next instant by a tornado of sounds and sparks, and that gentleman at once shot toward the ceiling in a blaze of various colored lights, while the air became thick with sparks, blue lights, blazing balls, industrious pinwheels, insane skyrockets, and screeching crackers. Mrs. O’Clarence fell over a chair that cost eight dollars when new, and struck the back of her head against the stove hearth with a violence that added materially to the display of fireworks already going on. Wickford’s boy was struck in the mouth with a skyrocket and had two-thirds of his hair taken off by a roman candle, and was knocked through a doorway by a piece of ordnance just intro duced this season, and which will undoubted ly become popular when understood belter. He was afterward fished out of a rosebush and taken home in a tablecloth. O’Clarence remained during tho entire ex hibition, looking at it from various positions, and when it was over with he was put in a sheet by the neighbors, and saturated with oil, and then covered with molasses and flour. We learn that new skin is already forming on parts of him, and if no unfavora ble symptoms set in he will be out in a fort night, although it is not likely he will mingle much in society until his hair aud eyebrows commence to grow. lie thinks Wickford’s boy i3 dead, and they dare not tell him to tho contrary until ho goto stronger. Singularly enough Mrs. O'Clurence escaped injury by burns, but tho blow on her head was so severe that she cannot bear to havo her back hair drawn up as high as it was before, and missing her church privileges is a soro trial to her. A youthful couplo of runaways in Texas, having obtained a license, repaired to a cler gyman on Red river, and desired him to per form the ceremony. He, however, declined on nccountfof their youth, and lor fear of the law. Not to be outdone, they stowed them selves on a cotton-wood log, and drifted far enough out into the stream to be considered out of the State, while tho obliging minister climbed on a stamp at the water’s edge, and pronounced tho ceremony which made them man nnd wife. Mrs. S. J. Van Vliet, the accomplished Milwaukee forger, has been sent to the State prison for two years. She wanted to become C initentiary correspondent for one of the ilwaukee papers.
