It is not too much to demand that they should now
be brought forward, and that before the tribunal
named by Mr. Wolfe.

Miscellaneous Foreign News.

It is denied both by the President and General
Grant that any elaborate official correspondence
occurred between them on the removal oZ General
Sheridan. On Saturday, the 17th ultimo, General
Sheridan was aware that he was to be removed, and
he is said to have taken it coolly, observing that he
had only done his duty. His last official act, a tele-
gram from New Orleans says, will be the removal
of Sheriff Hares of New Orleans for joining with
Steadman and Rousseau for opposing Reconstruction.
By the news the Java brought, which is to August
27, he had removed the city attorney and city sur-
veyor, and ordered the jurors to be chosen among
the registered voters. He is to proceel direct to
Fort Lawrence in Kansas, and not by way of Wash-
ington, as formerly reported. He will assume the
command of the department of Missouri, while Gen.
Thomas remains in charge of that of Cumberland.
In a letter of the 3d ult. to Grant, Sheridan says
that no opposition had come from the masses of the
people, but assistance and encouragement, while
from the Press, office seekers, and office holders
disfranchised, he had met with bitterness and oppo-
sition. His chief embarrassment arose from the
constant rumours of his removal, and he strongly
complained of Rousseau for interfering with his
duties, and suggesting his removal. General Rous-
seau had proceeded to New Orleans at the instiga-
tion of the President to inquire into Sheridan's
doings. So greatly was Sheridan annoyed, that
had he not been prevented by the President he
would have arrested Rousseau and tried him by a
military commission. On Monday, the 19th ult.,
Generale
Sheridan, Secretary of War, re-
ceived instructions
the President to super-
the following day the
super-
sede Grant, a
ands Actingfro
on
m
order was published. All agree that Grant remon-
strated, but it is unknown whether he based his
objections on personal or private grounds. There
is a clause in General Grant's order which expressly
provides that General Sheridan's acts are to remain
in force till rescinded by the General of the Army.
The cable news from New York is that Monsieur
Dano, the French Minister to Mexico, had arrived
in New York on the 30th August. On the 31st the
shipment of gold for Europe was small. Sept. 3.
General business was reviving. Sept. 4..—Presi-
dent Johnson has issued a proclamation warning
persons not to obstruct the decrees of the Federal
Courts, as was recently the case in Carolina, and
ordering the military and civil officers to assist the
enforcement of these decrees. The public debt of
the United States amounted on the Ist inst. to
$2,500,000,000. We presume this is given in round
numbers, but it signifies a considerable reduction,
as the debt on the Ist August was $2,511,306,426.
It is very remarkable to note how the prophecies of
impending financial evil are belied by the United
States.

The meeting of the Emperors at Salzburg has had
an unexpected result. The body of the son of Na-
poleon the Great, who was born King of Rome, and
died Due de Reiehstadt, is to be removed from
Vienna to Paris. When Napoleon I. abdicated, it
was expressly in favour of his son—at th 3 time three
years of age—who thus succeeded as Napoleon 11.
His cousin, the present Emperor, has decided on
removing his remains from the Imperial burying-
places of the Austrian family to the Abbey of St.
Denis, celebrated as the resting-place of the sove-
reigns of France. This Abbey, situated in the
suburbs of Paris, has lately been restored, having
suffered much at the hands of the revolutionists.
To Marshal Valliant has been confided the arrange-
ment of the funeral ceremony. Marshal Regnault
de St. Jean d'Angely, the Duke of Bassano, M. de
Cambaceres, and General Fleury will convey the
body from Austria to France, where it will be re-
ceived with all the splendour—whether it be in

Some attention has lately been called to the
anomaly, that the postage from London to Paris
will soon be higher than that from London to New
York, in so far that by the late treaty sixpence will
carry half an ounce to the United States, whereas
eight pence is charged to France if the letter exceeds
seven and a half grammes in weight. By the French
postal tariff to Italy, Germany, and other countries on
the Continent, ten grammes is the weight allowed.
The French allege that the English Post-office is to
blame for the reduction of the 2i grammes, who
have advanced the pretext that they do not possess
any measure corresponding exactly with the French
weight of 10 grammes. Those in England who
maintain a large correspondence with France a:e
kept alive to the anomaly that exists in
the postage. If the English have no weight
which corresponds to 10 grammes, the French,
we presume, have no weight which exactly
the authorities tra
equals the quarter ounce, and it would be surely
a
to introduce the
10 easygramme
m
weight as for the French to introduce
s ra mf or e the
the quarter ounce. The case illustrates not only
the
that banefulwhereve r
red
tapes but also the fact
h
construe the law
against the public they do so. Lately at a branch
post-office in Paris we had a letter weighed, the
postage on which was there declared to be suf-
ficient. It was addressed to London, where we pro-
ceeded, and arrived before the letter was delivered.
It came, bearing an extra charge of ten pence ;
why we were never able to ascertain. It is
probable that the branch office weighed the
letter by the common standard of 10 grammes
instead of 71, the exceptional postage to Great
Britain. Fully a third of the letters we receive
from Paris are marked "Insufficient," and we pre-
sume that great loss results to those who conduct a
large correspondence between the countries.
The Paris correspondent of the Times asserts
that positive information had been received by the
French Government that Russia had bought six
lArge ironclad fri gates from the United States. Russia
fomented the insurrection in Candia, the rising in
Bulgaria, which exists, though we hear little of it,
and she is doing her best to get up a disturbance in
Servia. The state of preparation of Russia puzzles
politicians, who hold the most diverse opinions of
her intentions. The fuller knowledge now obtained
in money circles regarding her financial position is
not reassuring, and if Russia contemplates war she
will not find it easy to raise the necessary funds.
The rapidity with which she is piling up a great
national debt, and with which loans in her behalf
have followed one another in the markets, have had
a depressing effect on he r credit.
By the Java we learn that the members of Mr.
Johnson's Cabinet are reported to have notified to
him that they will willingly tender their resignations
if requested by him so to do. This action appears
to be dictated by a fine feeling, which recognised
the President's difficulties as placed by the people at
the head of the P.
—xeeutive and responsible for its acts,
yet powerless under the late decree of Congress to
remove the chiefs of departments. By this course
the Cabinet
nullifies the Act of Congress, each
member refusing to avail himself of a law which
might enable him to carry his opposition to the
chief of the nation into the very council-room of
the President.

Admiral Tegethoff sailed from New Orleans for
Vera Cruz in the corvette Elizabeth, Aug. 22. He
will proceed to the city of Mexico, and, if granted
an interview with President Juarez, will ask for the
body of Maximilian. Before leaving he desired to
contradict the reports that the body had been de-
livered to any one, or any willingness manifested to
deliver it. A letter is published in a Leipsic paper,
written by Maximilian just before his death. With
singular calmness and simplicity
he directs what is
to be done with his body. It is to be taken to
Vera Cruz, and placed in a ship of war for carriage
to Europe without ceremony. " I waited calmly
for death, and I desire to enjoy calm in my coffin,"
he says. " I desire to be buried by the side of my
poor wife, but if the news of her death be not true,
it must be laid in some place
until the Empress
shall be re-united to me by death. Endeavour
also that the wife of my faithful companion-in-
arms, Miramon
the ships, as she is charged by Inc to present her-
self to my in Vienna." The American
, may return to Europe in one of
mother

lawyer Frederick Mall has also furnished some

particulars of the closing hours of the Emperor,
by whom he was employed as counsel. He states :
_GI have gathered a good many facts in re-
lation to him, and may write his biography when I
get home. I think he was one of the best men I
ever knew—so kind-hearted and conscientious." A
private letter is published in the New York, Times
which we would fain believe to be untrue. " Make
known to the American people," it says, " that the
Emperor was spat upon in his prison, that his corpse
was insulted during the eight days they had it hung
up naked by the neck, for public exhibition, from
the bannisters of a staircase in the ex-church of the
Capuchins. It is now on view, under glass, for
money, and they are selling the hair of his head
and beard." We presume this despicable nation
will close this scene of infamy by selling the body
to the Austrian Emperor. On Sunday last, M.
Schmidt, attaché to the late Austrian Embassy at
Mexico, arrived at Vienna from that country,
having with him several articles of clothing which
were given to him by the late Emperor Maximilian
just before his execution. The advices from Mata-
moras to the 15th August state that Canales had
proclaimed in favour of Ortega, and that Escobedo,
with 5,000 men, was marching against him.
At a meeting of Conservatives at Washington
Andrew Johnson was named for re-election as
President of the United States, and General Sher-
man Vice-President. A committee was organised
to forward this object. The idea is so prepos-
terous that people regard it as a joke. If Mr.
Johnson's chances of re-election to the Pre-
sidential post are of the faintest hue, he shows
determination to be President for the short period
of power left to him. Rumours were rife of
a reorganisation of the Cabinet at Washing-
ton, and it was even said that the Ministers had
agreed to place their resignation in the President's
hands, to take effect as successors are appointed.
The news of the 27th August so far confirms this
that all signify their willingness to resign when-
ever requested to do so by the President.
General Sickles has been relieved ; General Howard
will, it is said, be removed, and General Pope also.
Both Sickles and Howard will revert to their
rank of colonels, and be assigned to duty
in the 'Vest. The President has imbibed the notion
that Northern opinion is changing in favour of his
policy, and he is making a strong effort to carry
General Grant with him. A scheme has been sug-
gested to enable Mr. Stanton to turn the tables on
his late chief. Mr. Cameron is to resign his seat in
the Senate in favour of Mr. Stanton, who is to be
appointed by Governor Geary. The Hon. Benjamin
Wade is then to vacate the Presidency of the Senate,
and Stanton is to be elected. It will then remain
for the Senate to impeach and remove Mr. Johnson,
and Stanton succeeds as President of the United
States. The Springfield Republican, which gives
currency to this brilliant scheme, adds that the only
thing wanting to its success is the consent of all
parties.

General Sickle; in the original order which
brought him into contact with the Supreme Court
of the United States, intended only the public good.
The people of his district were harassed by fore-
closures of mortgages and collection of debts when
it was impossible to obtain money even on valuable
estates. To meet the case the General issued an
order suspending the enforcement of decisions of the
Courts in these cases. No distinction was made
between State and Federal Courts ; but the order
was believed to be applicable only to the former.
At the sitting of the Circuit Court at Raleigh some
cases of debts were decided by Chief Justice Chase.
It was in the execution of these that Lieut.-Colonel
Frank interfered with U. S. Marshal Goodloe.
The Marshal reported to 'Washington, the Post-
Commander to Sickles, and the President supported
the former and the General the latter. The Gene-
ral was informed that processes of the Federal
Courts were not be stayed by the military, whereupon
he requested a suspension of the matter for a
week, for time to communicate his views on the
subject. The Raleigh Sentinel, supposed to speak
for him, states that he plants himself on the
language of the Reconstruction Acts, and is not
bound by the opinion of any civil officer of the
United States. This is strange language in allusion
to the President, who is Commander-in-Chief of
both army and navy. On Wednesday, the 21st
ult., the President and Cabinet met to take into
consideration General Sickles' continued disobe-
dience, and the council seems to have been fol-
lowed by his removal, General Canby being ap-
pointed in his stead. General Sickles advanced in
self-justification that if.the Federal Courts are per-
mitted to enforce their decisions in his district they
may declare the Reconstruction Acts null and void ;
but his argument seems to have had little effect on
the President, judging from the telegram of the 4th
inst. It is reported that in the process of muster-
ing out Volunteer Generals, Brevet-Major General
Sickles will revert to his rank of colonel, and be
thus disqualified for his department command.
The simple and forcible denial of Messrs. Ben-
jamin Wood and Roger A. Pryor of all knowledge
of the conspiracy of which they are accused has
settled that plot. Judge-Advocate General Bolt
states that he signed the application for Canover's
pardon as a private citizen, and not as a Govern-
ment official, and General Butler and Mr. Ashley
appear to have taken no further action in the matter.
Leave of absence has been granted by the President
to Mr. Holt, with thl understanding that he will be
transferred to another post ; but he has declined to
avail himself of this leave, and talks of demanding
a court of inquiry. We presume that some such
action is necessary to dispose of the charges made
by Dunham against him.

Mr. George Dolby has arrived in America. He
has proceeded to the United States as agent for Charles
Dickens.

Generals Beauregard and Magruder visited the
New York Stock Exchange on Friday, the 16th ult., and
met with a very cool reception, being hissed by the mem-
bers as they left. Mr. R. L. Catting was censured for in-
troducing them.
James Buchanan, ex-President of the United
States, is seriously ill at Philadelphia, having been brought
there from Gape May. His recovery is said to be doubt-
ful. Thaddeus Stevens has had a relapse, and is thought
will be unable again to take his seat in Congress.
Colonel Gordon Grainger will, it is reported,
succeed General Howard as chief of the Freedman's Bureau,
or, in default of him, John M. Langston, the coloured
lawyer from Oberlin. Brigadier-General C. H. Tompkins, in
charge of the subordinate quartermaster's offices, is ordered
to Omaha, and General John C. Macfarren succeeds him.
Colonel J. M. Moore, of the Burial Bureau, proceeds to
Richmond, and the post will be abolished. Brevet-Colonel
F. H. Luddington goes with General Totten on a tour to
inspect the Atlantic fortifications. Brevet-Major N. J.
Luddington, Chief Ordnance Master of the Washington
depot, is ordered to New Mexico. Brevet Major H. A.
Royce, chief of the Eighth Division, Lieutenant-Colonel
Payne, and Major Francis J. Crilloy are mustered out.
Colonel Henry Clay Wool, Assistant-Judge-Advocate-
General, accompanies General Rousseau to Russian Ame-
:ica. The above arrangements have followed General
Grant's assumption of the Secretaryship of War, in
reduction of the expenditure of that department.
The Rev. Henry \Yard Beecher, in a serial which
ha is writing iu the New York Ledger, discusses, through
a negro character of the story, the probabilities of horses
going to heaven. Hiram points out that white and rod
and black and grey horses, aro spoken of in the Revela-
tions, that Death rides on a pale horse, probably a cream
colour, and that in the ninth chapter mention is made of

an army of 200,000 horsemen. "Now," asks Hiram,
" where could they get so many horses in heaven if none

of them that die off here go there ? It is my opinion that
a good horso is a darned sight likelier to go to heaven than
a bad man."

Colonel Robertson, of St. Paul, is importing

The Springfield Republican says—" The recent
cure of Elias Howe, jun., the inventor of the sowing ma-
chine, was something of a miracle. He was affected with
an enlargement of the heart, and after seeking in vain for
relief at Paris and London, came home to Bridgeport to
die. When ho was just at death's door, after his body had
began to swell up and turn black, ho heard of a New York
female physician, and had her telegraphed for. She came,
prescribed for him, and he is now able to travel about the
country.

a similar mission to Morocco. A most interesting tale,
"The Arab's Pledge," just published by Hatchard and

our next issue, mentions in the preface the great ameliora-
tion secured to the Jows of Morocco through the humane

man and Son, and of C. A. Capporbergh (sparkling wine),
in the city of Mainz. They went down upon the invitation
of these celebrated wino dealers, who met the party at the
Mainz department, with six carriages, and transported
them all to the famous city of Ilockhohn, where the celebrated
Hockheimer Dom presents, and Victoria Burgh brands of
wines are produced in Stockholm; a splendid lunch was
propaled for the party, and any amount of tho grand wines
opened on the occasion. After lunch the party repaired to
Mainz, and visited Mr. Kupperbergh's immense sparkling
wine fabric. Here the whole processof making wines was
immense
cellars, to the party, who traversed the
cellars, garrisoned with a million bottles of the
wines so celebrated in Germany. The party repaired
to the public gardens and heard the great Prussian
military band play for an hour. After this they
adjourned to one of the grandest dinners, prepared by
Messrs. Patetman, and Kupperbergh, ever seen in
Mainz. Over fourteen courses were given, with a fine
wine for each course. The dinner lasted over two hours,
when the party returned to Frankfort. Among the
visitors were Parson Stevens, of tho Fifth Avenue and
Continental Hotels, Mr. Dyer and family, Mr. Mozier, the
great sculptor, Con.-General C. Murphy, W. H. Town-
send, and Mr. Routh, &c. All expressed groat delight over

CHIEF JUSTICE CHASE.—In a recent letter to a
friend in Philadelphia, Mr. Chase says :—" I don't want to
bo represented as particularly poor or particularly disinte-
rested. 1 think I am worth now about $lOO,OOO. I should,
at any rate, be quite willing to take that sum in 5-20's, and
make a clear conveyance of all I have in the world to any
body who will pay my debts. I would willingly be worth a
great deal more if I knew of an honest way to get worth
more. All that the people are interested in knowing is that
I haven't a cent which of right belongs to them. I didn't
serve them to make money out of them, but to save money
for them ; and I really feel that the rascals who aro slander-
ing me ought to be denounced, and the mean attempt to
injure me in the public esteem exposed. It is much more
important to the people than it is to me that those who
have served them faithfully shall be fully and generally
sustained, otherwise rascality will be at a premium, and
those who are trying to make them suspect me will run
their arms to their shoulders in their money-bags.—New
York Herald.

The Round Tible tells us that " Mr. E. Steiger,
who has been known rather as a re-publisher of stand••
and German works and school-books, with occasional
translations of American books, as well as the New
York agent of many of the German periodical publi-
cation; ventures on a somewhat new line of busi-
ness in tho publication of Goschichte der deutschen
Eiu-
wanderung in Amerika.' Mr. Froderick Kapp, its anther,
has devoted no little time and research to the subject of
German immigration to this country, and his little book
must prove of interest and value to his countrymen here
and in their native country An interesting circumstance
respecting it is that its publication here is simultaneous
with that by a Loipzic house—the first instance, in the
absence of international copyright, of a foreign house com-
pensating author and publisher for a German work cog-
righted in the -United States."

Sassaki Gowrok, the Japanese official stopping' ill
Springfield, has presented to James L. Amsden, the fruit
dealer, a copy of an illustrated work on botany, published
