Georgia. Crops through various lower counties of this State are suffering from drouth. On Thursday last, says the Savannah Republican, a Mr. Graj' shot a man near Gray’s Landing, on the Altamaha river. The same paper says that on Sunday week Mr. G. W. Wilcox killed a man near Bowen s mill, Wilcox county. A correspondent of the Milledgeville Re corder writes very gloomily of the crops in Clay county. An unknown man. about 40 years of age. was found dead on the west end of rig Island, on Sunday. A little hoy named Nicholas Moore, nine years old. foil from a boat in which he was playing, in Savannah, on Sunday, and was drowned. _ I The steamer Virgo, in coming up the j river on Monday, struck a sunken wreck ■ just lielow Savannah, jg using her to leak badlv. and cargo in her lower hold. She had not been got off late on yesterday. A young child of Mr. W. L. Dawsonpn'Sa vannah. accidentally shot itself with a pistol left under the pillow by its father, on Saturday. The ball passed through both legs. Johnson W. Bridewell, of Atlanta—if we are not mistaken, one of the projectors of’the Intelligencer, the first daily published in Atlanta—disappeared on Saturday very mysteriously. Some of his clothes were found, covered with blood, at Lynch’s Hook Quarry. Some papers, including his bank book, were found with his clothing. His remains were found about two miles from the city on Sunday. The Savannah Herald learns from a gen tleman who arrived in that city last even ing by the Gulf road, that Dr. H. Eaton, residing in Camden county, in this State, was killed last Monday night by a squad of negroes, who called the deceased out of his house, and shot him down as he ap proached them. Considerable, excitement prevailed among the negroes in the neigh borhood on Monday morning, the origin of which is not known to our informant, which led, doubtless, to the murder at night.— The civil authorities attempted to arrest the murderer on Tuisday, hut were suc cessfully resisted by a mob of negroes, who proclaimed that the guilty parties should not he arrested. It was reported, how ever, that the sheriff had raised a sufficient posse on Wednesday to arrest the murder ers and their accomplices. The Board of Trustees of the State University, at their recent session elected the following new Professors viz: Dr. W. L. Jones, Terrell of Professor of Agriculture and Professor of Chemistry and Geology. Gen. M. L. Smith, Professor of Civil Engineering. Col. W. L. Broun, Professor of Natura Philosophy and Astronomy.

The 2d term will begin upon the 15th of February 1867 and extend to Com mencement. The College Session, after this, will con tinue with almost no intermission from 15th February to ICth December. Tnk Bridwell Murder. —The Atlanta papers contain the particulars of the mur der of J. W. Bridwellj to which we alluded on yesterday. Circumstances led to the arrest of a youth named James T. Wright, who confessed the murder. He says that Bridwell came home with his aunt, who lives in a low den in the suburbs of the city, and, while there, offered her some in dignity, which led to a quarrel, during which Bridwell drew a knife and he shot him. The body was shockingly mutilated ; the jaw fractured —skull broken—one eye gone—one anil broken —and still another mutilation more horrible than the rest. — The? e are not explained by the confession, which is corroborated by the statement of one of the women who lived at the house where the killing occurred. A negro was paid two dollars to convey the body to the woods, and promised the watch of the de ceased, wliicn was found hid in the leaves, and pointed out by Wright. Wright says lie was opposed to concealing the body, but was persuaded to do it. There appears to be some mystery in the affair, and great interest is manifested to bring out the whole truth. It is pretty evident that Bridwell was killed for his money. Wright, the negro, and two women are under ar rest, and others were to -be arrested. It is a most revolting affair, in all its details.

PHILADELPHIA CONVENTION*. tetter from H. W. Hilliard. Woodlawn, July 9, 18GG. Mu Dear Sir Some days si nee you did me the honor to invite me to give my views of the true policy of the South in regard to the proposed National Convention to as semble in Philadelphia on the 14th of Au J gu.-t next. The object of the Conventiop must meet the approval of eyerv patriotic man in the country. It is to"obliterate the lines which divide the people of the United States; lines traced by the hand of War ; and to restore those fraternal relations which bound the States to each other in the bet ter davs of the Republic. The theory of President Johnson as to the status of the Southern States is beyond all question the true one. The ordinance “of secession, in tended as a Declaration of Independence, by the several States, could only he made good by success in arms The failure to maintain upon the field the solemn decla ration made by the States that undertook to sever their connection with the Federal Government, was decisive of the question of their independence. The Conventions since held in the several seceding States, have given that interpretation to the re sults of the war. Whatever opinion may be entertained by statesmen as to the right of the Gen eral Government to coerce a State into obedience to its authority, still it is true that all the States that attempted to secede from the Union, to-day recognize the jurisdiction of the Government of the United States, and yield implicit obedience to its laws. The object of the proposed Convention is not only to bring together the represen tatives of the people of all the States, that they may give their formal expression of approval of this doctrine; hut it is Pi afford the opportunity for deliberation ; for a friendly interchange of opinion, and for effecting an organization of the friends of the President’s policy. It is a far nobler object than the mere strengthening of the claims of any man to office. The Presi dent holds at this time a great position. His patriotic course entitles him to the support of all the friends of Constitutional liberty. But the object of the National Convention is to accomplish something far greater than to strengthen the hands of the President. It proposes to inaugurate the supremacy of the people over faction. It will be the first assembling in Convention of the people of all the Htatos since the lyihappv disruption of their ancient rela tions. I hope that the South will be fully represented. In my whole political life I have con tributed what I could to the repression of a sectional spirit. I have firmly believed that the true interests of the States of the South were to he advanced by binding still more closely the relations which connected them with the other States of the Union —that nothing was to he gained by segre gation ; that distrust was not to be en couraged ; that the people of this country, united under a common Government, had a great destiny to accomplish. Taking part, as we did, with the people of our section in tbeir late struggle, those of us who held my opinions as to the policy of secession, while true to the Sout. in her heroic efforts to maintain the position which she had assumed, yet felt it to he our duty to give a prompt support to the Government of the United States upon the restoration of peace. No good can be ef fected by cherishing resentments. The battle was fought with ardor and courage. The Government that overpowered us is our own Government. The country that it embraces is our country. It has never oc curred to me that any good could be ac complished by yielding it up to the control of others, or by withholding our support from a Government which is still the Gov ernment of our country. It seems to me wiser to abide by the fortunes of our coun try, and to seek to give direction to that Government, which must affect, for all the coming centuries, the destiny of ourselves and our children. The phraseology of the call for the Con vention is open to objection. But the im portance of the object of the Convention is too great to suffer us to decline to meet our friends, who wjll doubtless accord to us in that body all our rights. I cannot permit myself to doubt that anv one friendly to the Government of the United States, administered in the spirit of the Constitution, will be welcomed as a mem ber of the Convention, without reference to his relations to that government during the late war. This is the spirit that must guide the deliberations of that body, if it is to accomplish any good result. Very respectfully, Your out serv’t, Henry' W. Hilliard. FROM MEXICO. Financial Affairs of the Emperor-Taxa tion—Railroad Projects—The Cordova Colony—Death of a Popular Georgian— The Date Liberal Successes. [Special Correspon nee of the Chronicle ft Sentinel.] Jalapa, June 20. 1866. Editors Chronicle & Sentinel s—l avail myself of the first leisure, since my arrival, to give your readers the promised notes of my observations in this strange country.— That which just now attracts most atten tion, is the query : How loug the Emperor can stand the present financial troubles, and keep a force intact sufficient to resist the Liberals. who are of late putting forth unusual efforts to regain possession of the country? It is stated that the Emperor has made an arrangement with Napoleon, by which he is to receive 500,000 francs (or about $100,000) a month, from France, to defray his pressing claims : in addition to which, his Austrian and French troops are to be paid out of the French Exche quer. To provide against future contingencies, Maximilian has just issued a tax decree which wiH yield, it is thought, an ample revenue for the future expenses of his Gov ernment. It is based on the production, or income of property, and not in propor tion to capital invested. The quota of tax ation is to be the sixth part, ot the net in come. when in a city ; or a seventh paTt. when in the country; and is to be paid in three installments in advance —one-third by the 10th of January, one-third by the 10th of May, and the balance by- the 10th of September. The rent which property commands, or commanded the year before, is taken as the basis of taxation. Where property has not been rented, the net in come is estimated on what remains to the owner after deducting the expense of pro duction. National and Church property, and property held without rent for any public use. is exempt from taxation. In addition to this tax, the drainage tax of 1-10th of one per cent, is still in force; also, there is decreed a tax of a half real (6) cents) for every 35,112 metres square, or 50.000 rasas square ; ami smaller places will pay a half real. (A real is 12} cents, and a metre is nearly 40 English inches.) These levies will yield, it is an ample revenue for the support of the Gov ernment. without aid from abroad. They are, it will be seen, very onerous. There are other taxes on commodities of general use. which I cannot enumerate. The Railroad interests of the Empire are not making much headway —that from Vera Cruz to Mexico is partially done, but numerous other lines projected have not yet been commenced. The Cordova colonists, which were re cently interrupted by a band of lawless guerrillas, some of whom claimed to be Literals, have, I learn, all been liberated, and are organizing a little force for self-de fence, and with the limited aid promised them by the Government, are realizing a partial sense of security. Notwithstand ing their recent interruption, some pro gress is being made by colonists from the States, and grants are being issued to ac tual settlers as heretofore. Many, how ever, are sick of the situation, and anxious to get away. A gentleman well-known in Georgia. Mr. S. Lanier, son of the popular landlord of that name, formerly of Macon, and now residing I believe near Montgomery, in Al abama —recently died in this place. He ar rived here a short time ago, in feeble health, hoping to find restoration in this pure and balmy clime. But his disease, which was- regarded of a pulmonarv char acter, had progressed too far. and he sunk quietly away, and found a last resting place in this land of strangers. His wife was with him. and he received the kindest attention from the people of Jalapa, who are eminently kind and hospitable. His lady is pleasantly situated, and has con cluded to remain here until the fall. The Liberal successes in some of the border districts, while they occasion some surprise, do not appear seriously to shake the faith of the adherents of Maximilian, who regard them as the spasmodic stuggles of an effete party, which must soon yield to the mild, hut firm sway of that popular sovereign. I must say that Ido not share largely in these hopeful auguries, and would not like to risk much on the issue. Ido not, however, hesitate to say that I believe the failure oi the Imperial cause here will be a calamity to the country. These people are so much divided into ‘factions and classes that no liberal form of government can be maintained, and if* 1 Maximilian falls, it ap pears to me that it must relapse into an intolerable state of anarchy. The sym pathy in the United States for the Liberals is, -therefore, only doing mischief, unless there is a settled purpose to displace Maxi milian ; and if such be the purpose, it should be done by. such active and material aid as will decide the fate of the contend ing interests. The Liberals are unques tionably encouraged by the hope of aid from Washington, and 4 it is quietly hinted that private guarantees have al ready been made from parties in high financial positions—whether with or without the cognizance of the Government is not stated. The capture of the immense train, of supplies and specie near Matamoras was a serious reverse for the Imperialists, and involved the fall of Matamoras. The de fection of u native regiment is assigned as the sole cause Os the whole chain of disas ters. The hour for the departure of the mail is close at hand, and 1 must close. Montezuma. THE PORTLAND FIRE. Interesting Particulars. The New' York papers contain several columns of details of the late terrible con flagration at Portland, from which we con dense the most interesting facts, for the information of such of our readers as are familiar with the beautiful “Forrest City Two hundred acres of territory, com pactly filled with dwelling and business houses were swept by the tornado of flame, and 10,U00 to 12,000 people rendered home less. The fire commenced a little below the foot of Light street, and next burnt up Hall’s flouring mill, and then Brown’s sugar house with all its surroundings, then Staples & Sons and Richardson's founde ries, and nothing else on Commercial street of consequence. It next swept what is called Graham’s corner, composed of small wooden buildings, clean. It then burnt up as far as the old Varnam House on Pleasant street, one-third the way up Center street, half the way up Cotton street, completely up Cross street, Union street, Temple street, and Exchange street. It swept down on the north side of Fore street, and moved along to India street, where East White fronts diagonally across Middle street, and down to Cumberland, taking the Elm House, but sparing the First Par ish Church, and then from Chestnut to North streets, and made a clean sweep on the south side of Cumberland street; and the same was the case with Congress street and everything else to Fore street, as far east as India. The ruin and destruction is very great. Davis, B. & Cos., on Fore street, wholesale dealers in fancy articles, set down their loss at $25,01*0, which is fully insured in the /Etna Company, Hart ford, and the Hampden Company, Hart ford. The upper side of Fore street is swept clear to India, except, two buildings on the corner of India street. Wood’s marble hotel, the Fireman House, the American House, the Elm Hotel, the International House, the Commercial House, and the Sturdevant House and Kingsbury’s Hotel are all destroyed. The Preble and United States hotels alone escaped. All the banks of the city—seven in number —were de stroyed. The papers and money of the National Traders’, and the first and second National,-escaped in their vaults, without injury. The gas works were destroyed. The building whose loss is most deplor ed is the new city hall. It was regarded secure, and wasfilled with immense stores of goods and valuables, taken there for safety; but it caught in the dome, and this falling through, soon set the building on fire, and it was quickly destroyed. This building cost $400,000, but could not now be re placed for twice that sum. The Methodist Church, near the city hall —a fine structure, worth about $70,- 000 was saved by having iron shutters to the windows. The loss of the Natural History build ing, containing rare and valuable collections which cannot he replaced, is much deplor ed. The heaviest individual loss was that of Brown, the sugar refiner, estimated at $1,000,000 —including his immense works, and many valuable houses. His fine resi dence was outside the path of the fire. We'cannot of course yield space to a list of all the sufferers ; Deering, Milliken & Cos, drv goods merchants lost $200,000; partly insured; Woodman, True & Cos, woolen dealers lost $150,000 ; J. E. Dan nels, real estate, $120,000; W. W. Thomas, real estate, $90,000; W. T. Phillips & Co.’ druggists, lost $35,000; Elias Thomas and wife, real estate, $75,000; Evans Block, $35,000 ; Nathan Cummings and family $50,000; A& 8. Shurtleff, shoe dealers, $50,000 ; Davis Brothers, stationers. $30,- 000: Bailey & Noyes, stationers $35,000 ; A. W. Clapp, real estate, $60,000 ; all these were partially insured. The list of those who lost SI,OOO to SIO,OOO, embraces several hundred, and would fill several colums. All the newspaper. offices were burned, and the papers are issuing slips. They will go out of town to print for the present. The Press has ordered new material, and published proposals for the ei eetion of a new office. The scenes during the fire were beyond description. The hurried moving of goods from one point, only to have them burned in another —the care of invalids hustled into the streets on luatresses. and borne through the excited throng—the moans of the homeless, and the universal consterna tion and distress, were too heart-rending for recital. The unstinted hospitality of the neigh boring cities prevented any serious suffer ing for food, though scarcely a place was left in the city where supplies could be pur chased. Long trains of cars loaded with bread, cooked meats and fixtures for serv ing hot coffee went over in a few hours from Boston. All the surrounding towns and cities contributed, without stint, to the sufferers. Meetings have been held in most of the Northern and Eastern cities to solicit subscriptions for the needy, and in Boston alone the cash subscriptions in one dav were $25,000. Portlan 1 was considered the most beau tiful city on the continent. Its noble shade trees had been the object of especial care— the city paying a large salary to a Forester, who devoted all his time, with several as sistants. to planting, pruning and preserv ing the trees, which are chiefly ruined by the fire. » Colonel Forney (Dead Duck.) announced himself at Lebanon. Pennsylvania, on Fri day. as a candidate for the United States fv?nate in the place of Mr. Cowan. Montgomery Drall will press his claims before the Maryland Legislature lor a seat in the United States Senate in place of Hon. John A. J. CresweJl, whose term ex pires with the present Congress. Yallandiguam is to deliver an address before the Democracy of Fleming county. Ohio, on the 20th. Garibaldi. Among the military heroes who will soon become conspicuous in the Eurojiean war, few will command more attention in the United States than Garibaldi. So filled up wfith vicissitude lias been his checkered life, and his personal history is so identified with great events, that his career will be watched, irrespective of the cause which lie may espouse. At present, having left his island home at Caprera, he is with the vanguard in the armies of the Italian kingdom, fighting for Yenetia, and in his oval person will be a perfect embodiment of the spirit of ‘' young Italy. ' The mem ' ory of the exploits of his red-sliirted vol unteers. still fires the enthusiasm of the youth of the nation. The chance of a war with Austria is seized on by this class with an avidity that could ill brook the restraint imposed by years of peace. They thirst for Rome as the capital, hoping to re-es tablish the ancient prestige of the empire; they demand Yenetia to restore the integ rity of the national domain, and, in their ardor for liberty, cherish very little vene ration for his Holiness Pius IX. because the great ecclesiastical establishment which he represents is supposed to be inimical to free institutions. They once fought the eagles of Austria, but their work was lef t unfinished by the peace of \ illafranoa, and they now strike for Italy s complete re demption. The period of inaction has ended. Garibaldi is now sixty years of age, having been horn at Nice, July 4, 1806. In 1834 he was already a political exile, on account of revolutionary views, and soon found an opportunity to embark for Brazil, where he at first engaged in commercial pursuits, which proved uncongenial, and soon after he espoused the cause of l Jraguay, then fighting for her independence. On another occasion lie organized a flotilla, for the defence of Montevideo, at various times commanding an Italian legion. A portion of the latter accompanied Garibaldi to Italy in 1848, to join the forces of Charles Albert, in Piedmont. He was repeatedly in sharp engagements with the French and Austrians, always acquitting himself with valor, and gaining wide re pute for adroit military manoeuvres. Being finally overpowered by disparity of num bers, he rejected the Austrian offer for surrender, and, with a small remnant of his force, made his way toward Venice in fishing-boats, intending to elude the squad ron blockading that port. He gained the shore, and survived many perils, the pun ishment of death being decreed against all who should afford him food or shelter. Meanwhile his devoted wife, Anna (to Whom he was married in South America, and who had accompanied him through every vicissitude); died, overcome with ex haustion. Fleeing through Tuscany and Sardinia, the unfortunate man took refuge on a friendly vessel, arriving in New York in 1850, there to engage in the humble occu pation of making candles on Staten Island. After a time he resumed his former occu pation as mariner; but availed himself of the privilege of returning to Italy, and in 1859 once more entered the list against the Austrians. Peace found Garibaldi among the victors, but, as the event proves, peace was not lasting, and he has once more buckled on the sword to finish the work. A Lover’s Race for Liberty and License. [From the Ohio State Journal, June 28. J Last week, in a town not a thousand miles from Columbus, a young man who loved wisely and well, proposed, was ac cepted, and proceeded to procure the mar riage license from the proper official in the country town. He was a little sensitive on the point of publicity, and left home for a horseback ride to said county seat, dressed apparently in his old every-day clothes. Under these, however, he wore his “ Sutaday-go-to-meetins, ” and on nearing the point ■of destination, hitched liiS horse, laid off his old clothes, and trip ped lightly over the bridge into town, a •very dandy in unruffled smoothness. It so happened that he shed his clothes and tied his horse near a stream of considera ble depth. Men discovered both, and soon concluded that some reckless young man had been drowned. The subject was thor oughly canvassed, and preparations made to drag the stream for the body. A large crowd had collected bv this time, and the ex* citement was intense. The proceedings were stopped by an excited individual plunging across the bridge, springing on the horse, and galloping away. The inference at once was, that the young man had stolen the horse, and several farmers started im mediately in pursuit. Young man saw them and whipped up to full speed. The race was a close one for several miles, when he dodged them by taking a by path through the woods. He was again discovered, nowever, and again the chase commenced, the pursuit being joined in hv many new comers with fresh horses. Pell-mell, rough and tumble, the pursued and pursuers went through the country for many miles, creating everywhere ex citement. At last the young man neared the residence of his intended bride. He rode at once to the gate, dismounted, and plunged into the house, as the pursuing party dashed up, he declaring that they ‘‘couldn’t have his license without riding hard for them,” and that he wouldn’t give them up without a fuss. Explanation succeeded explanation, and there was a hearty laugh at the expense of the un sophisticated youth who had been pur sued as a,horse thief, but who only labored under the misapprehension that his pur suers wanted to rob him of his marriage license.

THE PHILADELPHIA CO3TVEXTIOX. Comments of the Northern Press. That sterling State Rights journal the New York News, commenting on the address of the Democratic members of Con gress, endorsing the Philadelphia Conven tion. says: “The style and temper of this address are admirable. It ignores the divisions which have heretofore existed amongst those who are opposed to the destructive principles and measures ot' the Radicals, and prepares the way for the earnest and hearty co-operation of all those who desire the perpetuation of the Union, and the well being of the State and the people of this great country. This is in the true Demo cratic spirit,"and as such we accept it, and give our voice to the proposed movement. “In order to restore the Southern States to all their rights and privileges under our common Government, we are willing to act with those who have been our worst foes. We shall ask but one question, and that is, ‘Are you willing to unite with us, without reference to the past, in carrying out a policy which shall have for its object the welfare of the whole people, and the rights of all the States? Shall the Union be maintained in the spirit of its original creation? Shall the South be restored to her rightful position in this galaxy of States? And shall tlio Radicals and De structionist l>c hurled from the places which they have usurped and disgraced? With all who will unite with us to accomplish these ends, we will heartily and zealously co-operate, whether we differed with them or not, during the progress of the war. “We therefore recommend and advise the Peace Democracy to unite in sending delegates to the Convention, and in mak ing it a demonstraton of power and sig nificance. In the language of the Con gressional Address, let us unite “to the end that all the States shall at once be re stored to their practical relations to the Union, the Constitution be maintained, and peace bless the whole country.” The New York World , though at first opposed to the Convention, because it thought it might lead to a division in the Democratic party, is more favorable to the movement since the publication of the address of the Democratic members of Con gress. It says that it is not to be supposed that it can supercede the Democratic organiza tion, or be to it other than an auxiliary association. It adds : “The probable purpose of the Philadel phia Convention is to form anew political party. The political views expressed both in the call and address are such as no true Union man can take exception to ; and the question whether anew party is the Attest means, or a desirable adjunct to other means, for giving them effect, is a lair topic of discussion. ” PROM ATLANTA. Still Going Ahead—. Rolling Mill—Foun dry—Hotel and Private Houses— Trade —Old Railroad Project Revived, Ac., Ac. Special Correipondence of the Chronicle A Sentinel. Atlanta, July 0. Messrs. Editors : Much as you hear of the growth of Atlanta, you can scarcely conceive the amount of progress that lias been made in the last twelve months. Nearly all the burnt district is covered with substantial business houses. A project is being canvassed to rebuild the Atlanta Hotel, with ten or twelve stores in the first story. The Rolling Mill is about com pleted, on a much larger scale than the old establishment, being 307x80 feet. It is to contain two furnaces and two mills —one for making bar iron and railway spikes, and one for rolling railroad iron.

Private houses are going up in every direc tion, •and the city has almost regained its old population. The Air Line Railroad from Atlanta to Anderson, in South Carolina, is again at tracting attention, and a Northern compa ny are negotiating for control of the stock. Why is it that Augusta sleeps over her fine manufacturing facilities, and railroad con nections? While a large portion of the power of ourcanal are running to waste, Co lumbus is building Steam Cotton Mills, At lanta erects Foundries, and manufacturing villages are springing up in every direction —at West Point, at Steadman, Kaolin — and in remote points possessing far less ad vantages than our city affords. And all because our money is locked up in cotton or in huge files of merchandise, waiting for a market. Cotton is a good thing, and trade a sort of necessary evil —but for the real solid public good, next to agricultural pursuits, give us manufacturing. Reflector. FROM SOUTH AMERICA. Further from the Battle between the Brazilians and Paraguayans. The battle between the Brazilians and Paraguayans, May 2d, proves to have been the most severe since the beginning of the war. Falling by surprise on the allied camp, President Lopez captured four guns almost without resistance. A letter from Buenos Ayres says: Gen. Flores commanded the vanguard, and was in camp during the surprise. He rallied his men, and his favorite regiment, being some hundreds at 11 o'clock A. M., was only 40 by BP. M. He was complete ly surrounded, and was failing fast when the Brazilian Gen. Osorio came up with a strong reinforcement, and learning the danger of Flores, sent a regiment with posi tive orders to rescue him. It was a regi ment of Brazilian volunteers, and they cut through a solid body of Paraguayans and brought Gen. Flores out alive, • leaving nine-tenths of their number dead behind them. Flores had, when attacked, only four battalions of infantry, a few cavalry soldiers, and four guns, and the force that fell on him was estimated variously from 6,000 to 10,000. He had two horses shot under him, and also lost three flags. Only two days before Gen. Osorio had besought him not to remain in so dangerous a place as he had selected for his camp. The latest account of the battle says that the allies lost 1,500 men, and Paraguay lost 2,310. Gen. Mitre reports they left 1,200 dead on the field, and also left 800 muskets and a host of prisoners. At night the allies held the battle-field and two miles in advance. • Personal. General Grant's father is postmaster at Covington, Ky. The Washington Republican calls An drews, the air ship man, a balloonatic. It is said that Mr. Davis has expressed his reeret at the publication of Dr. t ra ven’s'book. Two printers, Douglas snd Hallister, went over the river yesterday to fight a duel. Shots were exchanged, when the authorities interferred. Nobody hurt. It is stated that Queen Victoria sends a telegraphic despatch every morning to the King of Prussia, containingcommonly only the words “God guide you for the best. A man named Jencks Howard, proof reader in the office of the Detroit Ibst. was arrested on the 24th for a murder committed on a Mississippi steamboat, two years ago. Senator Wilson condemns the Tariffßill, now pending in the House, as a \\ estern and not a Massachusetts measure. There are rumois, likewise, of a movement in the Senate to have it postponed. “Horace,” the Harrisburg correspondent of the Franklin Repository, says that the Executives of New Jersey, Ohio and New York do not favor extra sessions of the Legislature to ratify the constitutional amendments. They think that the aroend i ments cannot be adopted finally before January, in any event, and that extra ses- I sions would not, therefore, facilitate the great end desired. Governor Cox, how ever, will abide the decision of the Union I Convention soon to be held in Ohio, and it | is not improbable that extra sessions will I yet be held in most of the States. Foreign. Baron Rothschild long since removed all the valuables from across the Rhine, and this example is now being ex tensively followed by landlords in Prussia, Germany. Austria and Italy. Professor Agassiz, in a letter, informs those contemplating emigration to Brazil, that while the resources oi'that country are boundless, yet laws and usages of the land place restrictions on the stranger, not con ducive to the comfort and prosperity of the emigrant. A War-office return (Great Britain) shows that in the course of the years 1864 and 1865, one hundred and twenty-seven officers in the army died while ou full pay. The sums which they had paid for their commissions amounted together to £llO,- 010. The details of the distress prevailing in Hun gary, and generally in the eastern provinces of Austria, are truly heartbreak ing. In the Bukovina, especially, misery drives the inhabitants to the very last ex tremities. parents offering to sell their children that the little ones should not die of hunger. In Paris in 1564, not less 2.440 couples pleaded for separation; of these 280 were appeals made by the husbands, and the remainder by the wives. Evidently women are the oppressed parties. Os tlie above demands but 217 ot the cases were recon ciled to each other by the mediation of the judge before whom they laid their petition, 219 were refused, and 1’822 separations were judiciously announced. A manufacturer of Lyons has recently received an order for 300,000 kilogrammes (about 300 tons) of steel bauds for making crinolines. That quantity, which at the first glance might appear exorbitant, is far below the reality. One house alone iu Paris sells annually 600,000 kilogrammes (about 600 tons) of those hoops. In or der to form an idea of the extent of that branch of commerce, the calculation must be made that every woman or girl has at least two of those articles of dress, each weighing an average of 500 grammes, be ing one kilogramme of steel for each per son. As, therefore, the adult female popu lation amounts to twelve millions, it is that number of kilogrammes of steel which is annually used for the fairer portion of the French people. patent tHfilmuts.

Seigfried, Pastor of Twelfth Baptist Church, Philadelphia.) Gentlemen: I have recently been laboring under the dis tressing effects of indigestion, accompanied by a prostration of the nervous system. (Numerous remedies were recommended by friends, and some of them tested, but without relief. Your lloofland’s German Bitters were recommended by persons who had tried them, and whose favorable mention of these Bitters induced me to try them. I must confess that I had an aversion to Patent Medicines from the “ thousand and one” quack Bitters whose only aim seems to be to palm off sweetened and drugged liquor upon the community in a sly way, and the ten dency of which, 1 fear, is to make many a confirmed drunkard. L pan learning that yours was really a medicinal preparation, I took ltvwith happy effect. JYs action, not only upon the stomach, but upon the nervous system, was prompt and grati fying. I feci that I have derived great and permanent benefit ftrom the use of a few bottles. Very respectfully yours, W. D. Seigfriep, No. 254 Shackaniaxon street. (jom the Rev. E. Dr. Fendall, Assistant Editor Christian Chronicle, Philadelphia.) I have derived decided benefits from the use ofHoofland’s German Bitters, and feel It my privilege to recommend them as a most valuat le tonic to all who are shffering from a general debility, or from diseases arising from derangements of the liver. Yours truly, E.D. Fendaj.l. (From!Rev. D. Merrige, Pastor of the Passyunk Baptist Church, Philiwlelphia.) From the many respectable recommendations given to Dr. lloofland’s German Bitters, I was induced to give them atrial. After using several bottles I found them to be a good remedy for debility, and a most excellent tonic for the stomach. D. Merkige. (From Rev. William Smith, formerly Pastor of theVincen towli and Milville (N. J.) Baptist Churches.) Having used in my family a number of bottles of your Hoof land’s German Bitters, I have to say that I regard tl>em as an excellent medicine, specially adapted to remove the diseases they are recommended for. They strengthen and invgonite the system when debilitated, -and are useful in disorders of the liver, loss of appetite, etc. I have also recommended them to several of my friends, who have tried them, and found them greatly beneficial in the restoration of health. Yours truly, Wsf. Smith. S>66 Hutchinson street, Philadelphia. IV ' (From the Rev. Joseph H. Kennard, Pastor of the Tenth Bap tist Church.) I have been frequently requested to connect ray name with commeudaiiotis of different kinds of medicines, but regarding the practice as out of my appropriate sphere, 1 iiave in all cases declined: but with a clear proof in various instances, and par ticularly in my own family, of the usefulness of Dr. H Gotland's German Bitters, 1 depart for once from my usual, course, to ex press my full conviction that, for general debility of the system and especially for liver complaint, it is a safe and valuable pre paration. In some cases it may fail, but usually, I doubt not it will be very beneficial to those who suffer from the above causes. Yours, very respectfully, J. H. Kennakd, Fight ,below Coates street. Philadelphia, Dec. 24,1864. Rev. J. S. Herman, of the German Reformed Church, Kutz town, Berks county, Pa., was cured of Dyspepsia .of twenty years’ standing. A. M. Spangler, Editor of the Culturist, No. 35 North Sixth street, says this Bitters was recommended to him by a medical fridna, and six bottles cured him of complete prostration of the nervous system.
