The value of greenbacks, and whether they are legal tender, has been decided so variously in different sections of the country, that it is getting to be an interesting question. In Louis ville, Ky., recently, a man was arraigned for stealing a $5 note on one of the National Banks. His counsel argued that the act did not amount to grand larceny, for the following reasons : Ist, that it requires a valuation of $4 in gold or silver to constitute grand larceny ; 2d, that it is not grand larceny if the amount stolen is less than $4 in the legal currency of the State, recognized and existing at the time of the passage of the act; 3d, that the face value of the note stQlen is only prima facie evidence of its value, which can be set aside by rebutting testimony; and 4th, that the genuine ness of the bill and the existence of the bank must be proven. The Judge overruled the ex ceptions, but the counsel for the prisoner took exceptions to the ruling, and filed grounds for anew trial. Per contra , here is another case, which oc curred in San Francisco, California : A gambler named Ed. Whipple, one of the proprietors of an extensive faro bank, was arrested for gaming. He was tried before a jury in the county court, convicted and fined SI,OOO, with the alternative presented him of going to jail till the fine should be paid. He tendered the fine in green backs, and the clerk, under instructions from the judge, refused to receive them, claiming gold. Whipple chose to go to jail, and test the court’s right to compel him to pay gold. He was taken before Judge Dwindle, of the Fif teenth District Court, on a writ of habeas cor pus, where the question was discussed in all its bearings. The court decided that he had to pay his fine in gold coin or go to jail. In this latter case we certainly have a practi cal nullification of the law of Congress making greenbacks a “legal tender.’* »► > -«« ——- The National Debt. —The national debt, in round numbers, is three thousand millions, which, divided among thirty millions of people, is about one hundred dollars a head; the State debt is about fifty-one millions, which, divided among four millions of people, is nearly thirteen dollars per head; and our city debt is forty-one millions, or about forty-one dollars per head. This makes a total of one hundred and fifty-four dollars a head for each man, woman and child in the city of New York. As not over one per son in six is a laborer, or creator of wealth, it follows that each actual producer is saddled with a debt of one thousand dollars, upon which he must pay interest for the rest of his life. The prospect is not a pleasant one for the labor ing classes.— New York World. Underground Railways. —A recent number of the London Engineer describes as follows the underground Railway in operation in that city: Among our railway systems, the Metropolitan is sui generis. It is unique in its mode of con struction, in the district it serves, and in its working. At the top of the list in mileage, traffic receipts, and, we may almost add, in the value of its shares. It is peculiar, inasmuch as the whole of the line is constructed under the metropolis, many portions of it passing unuer densely populated districts and busy thorough fares. The number of passengers it conveys is perfectly enorthous. In the last half year, the persons carried on the Metropolitan were 7,462,- 823, that is, two and a half times the population of London. The mere increase in the number of passengers conveyed in the last as compared with the preceding half year, was equal the united populations of a score of the next largest cities and towns in England, including Man chester, Liverpool, Birmingham, Newcastle, etc. Telegraph Round the World. — A letter from the Russian telegraph expedition on the Pacific coast, dated December 4th, says : .During the past season the vessels of the fleet have been kept busy and have accomplished much to further the progress of the great work. Exploring parties have been landed at various points along the American and Asiatic coasts, soundings have been made in Behring’s Straits with satisfactory results, and much valuable in formation gained relative to the character of the country in the interior. Thus far every thing has proceeded with the utmost care and caution, and the result is that last seasons’ operations have been a complete success. By the time the fleet again approaches the northern ports the explorations will, in all probability, be completed, so that constructing parties can enter the countries at different points and push the work forward with great rapidity. Emigration to the South.— lt is stated that there are at present agents in New York, from various parts ol the South, who have been sent there by land owners and corporations in the Southern States, for the purpose of inducing em igrants from Europe to go”to the South. Poor and destitute emigrants are furnished with free passage, and during the past few weeks several batches of emigrants, mostly Germans and Swedes, have been forwarded to various points in the South—to Memphis, Charleston and Sa vannah. A party of about fifty, who had just landed, were forwarded to the South on Satur day last, and about cne hundred and fifty left New York for the same destination the Saturday previous. The Southern agents hope to divert emigration and travel from the West to she South, on account of the high rates of fare on the Western railroads, which, it seems, were raised to the present high standard during the late war. The poorer classes are unable to pay these high rates. Quite a number of Germans —mechanics, artisans, waiters, etc., —have re cently gone from New York to New Orleans. The emigration to the South has only just been commenced, and by the aid of the above men tioned Southern scheme, is expected soon to in crease. ' Judge Trigg, of East Tennessee, recently de cided that paroles given to the Confederate armies have not been binding since the close of the war, not being equivalent to pardons. General Sherman has been invited to Wash-, ington to confer with General Grant on the sub ject of the new army bill. Cotton Wastage.— About, one hundred of the Cotton Factors of New Orleans have enter ed into a mutual agreement and obligation in order to protect the interest of and discharge their duty to their patrons, not £o consent that cotton brokers or their employees, cotton presses or their employees, or cotton weighers, or their employees, shall appropriate to their use or benefit such portion of cotton drawn from bales in the process of classing or sampling as is com monly called “ loose cotton.” Believing, ,a s they do, that the said “loose cotton” rightfully belongs to the owner or shipper of cotton, they are determined to resist any demands to the contrary. The Naturalization Bill.— The following is the text of the bill to amend the naturalization laws, now pending in Congress : “Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of Ameri ca, in Congress assembled, That all the acts of Congress relating to naturalization be and the same are hereby amended by striking out, wherever they occur, the words ‘ being a free white person,’ and the words ‘free white,’ and the words ‘ a free white person,’ so that in the matter of naturalization there shall be no dis tinction as to race or color. Sec. 2. And be it further enacted, That all persons born, or hereafter to be born, within the limits and under the jurisdiction of the United States, shall be deemed and considered, and are hereby declared to be citizens of the United States and entitled to all rights and priv ileges as such. Sec. 3. And be it further enacted, That noth ing in this act contained shall be construed so as to allow the naturalization of any members of the Indian tribes ” Sumner and his followers in Congress appear to be determined to leave “no stone unturned” to carry their ends. May they be defeated in all their ultra plans. The Southern States to be “ forever” ex cluded.—Able and eloquent speeches against negro suffrage were delivered recently, by Mr. Garrett Davis, of Kentucky, in the Senate, and by Mr. Randall, of Pennsylvania, and Mr. John L. Thomas, of Maryland, in the House. The speech of Mr. Thomas, of Maryland, was an exceedingly brilliant production, founded upon sound argument and supported by the most cogent reasoning. He showed that the confer ring of negro suffrage upon the negroes of the District, would be the opening wedge to the as sumption by Congress, of the power to force negro suffrage upon all the States. That this is the design of the Radical party in Congress, is evident from what Mr. Shellabarger of Ohio said in his speech a few days ago. He boldly took the ground that Congress had absolute powers of legislation over all the Southern States, and argued that their representatives ought to be kept out of Congress until those States had adopted negro suffrage. He then said: “If I were asked, How long will you keep the Southern States out of Congress, if you cannot secure that condition of peace ? I would sorrowfully, but inexorably, answer, “For ever !” A cheerful prospect, truly. Bill for the Enlargement of the Freed men’s Bureau. —This bill for the enlargement of the Freedmen’s Bureau is now under discus sion in Congress. The bill which comes, it is understood, from General Howard, provides for the continuance of the Bureau until abolished by act of Congress and its extension to refugees and freedmen in all the States. The fourth section provides for the setting apart of the public lands, to the extent of three millions of acres of good land, in Florida, Ar kansas, and Mississippi, for the use of freedmen and loyal refugees, to be rented to each in par cels of not more than forty acres. At the termination of the lease the occupants may pur chase a title, in fee, with the consent of the Commissioners. If the bill passes, we shall have a Liberia in three of the Southern States. The seventh section of the .bill puts the freed men under the protection of the General Gov ernment, making it the duty of /the President to protect them against the operation of State laws that make discriminations on account of color. Labor and Taxation. —The Round Table argues that in order to pay the na tional debt and the increased expenses of the government consequent upon the war, we shall all be compelled to work about three hours daily for the government, or a corresponding amount will be subtracted from our compensation; and that instead of cutting a day’s work down to eight hours, we shall be inevitably obliged to increase it to 12 or 14 hours. The Round, Table predicts these three effects of the national debt: 1. To create a small class of extremely wealthy men. 2. To reduce the great mass of the well to-do and moderately wealthy to the present status of working people. 3. To increase the hours of labor, reduce the compensation, and deteriorate the gen eral condition of the laboring classes. The Western Hog Trade.— The re ceipts of hogs at Cincinnati, so far this sea son, reach 165,041 head, against 230,346 during the same time last year. The Cin cinnati Price Current of Wednesday says : The receipts of hogs during the week have been rather better than they were the pre vious week, but the market has been weak and prices declined 50 per cent, closing weak at $lO 25@510 50 net. The business of packing hogs in this city this season, so far, is behind that of any previous season since 1850, so that the manner in which ho"s have been kept back this season is without precedent in the history of trade, and there fore it is not surprising that it should attract attention, but the Western packers and deal ers know full well that the hogs are in the country still, though probably not to the ex tent of last year’s crop in number, yet fully up to it in pounds. For, in case there should be a deficit of 500,000 in number, which we regard doubtful, the increase in weight will fully make up for this. : ° .'

MACON WHOLESALE MARKET. Office Daily Evening Mirror, Macon, Jan. 31, 1866. COTTON.—Our last report closed on a dull market, with scarcely anything doing, and prices nominal.

DELEGATES TO THE GENERAL CON FERENCE. The time for making the collection to de fray the expenses of delegates to the Gene ral Conference is drawing near. The service being for the church, there can be no doubt that the church is willing to pay the money if the opportunity be presented. ' It is not probable that any charge will feel able to give much for this purpose. It is therefore, the more necessary that the col lection be general. We mention it thus early to give opportunity to the preachers to give notice of the collection, in all their congregations. 4 W To tkb Preachers of the Montgomery Conference: The Minutes are in press, and ought to be out in ten days.
