From Rio de Jnuoiro.

Captain yeacock, of the barque Minnesota, which
arrived at this port yesterday from Rio de Janero,
from whence he sailed on the tn ultiIno, states
that on the Sth ultimo the steam tow boat Sarah,
owned by the highly respectable firm of Hobbs &
Alvaringe, ship chambers, while in the act OF
taking stores TO a schooner. which cleared on the
9th, and at the time was three miles outside the
harbor, bound to the coast of Africa, supposed on
trading voyage, and owned by one RoInes, noto-
rious trader in that infamous traffic, seized by
the commander of the British steamer Cormorant,
who ordered her crew TO be imprisoned on board
his vessel, and vessel 10 be blown up, which were
promptly executed. Messrs. Hobbs & Alvaringe
represented the matter to the American minister,
and assured his excellency that their tow boat was
engaged in no avocation but what strictly
legal, and in accordance with the maritime laws
of the country
The American sloop- ofwar Dale, Commander
Pearson, lay in the harbor, affordng the United
States minister ample power to arrest the Cormo
rants crew, and blow that vessel up; but, in ac-
cordance with his established judgment, he sub
mitted the matter to the Federal Government,
where, doubtless, reparation and apology will be
demanded Philadelphia North american, 2lst.

virginia coupon BOnds.

We observe that the Bank Of the Old Do
minion has been organized in Alexandria. This
bank is based upon a deposit of coupon bonds.
The nteligeHeer quotes a letter from n NJ
RorHsoHILD and Sons, stating that ''they
hold the credit of the State of Virginia in very
high estimation"
A sale of Virginia bonds for large amount
has been effected recently in the city of New
York at three per cent premium, interest added,
payable in such instruments as the Board of
Public Works may require.
We believe that the United States Govern
ment had previously shown its confidence in
these stocks by considerable investment
The rate of purchase has not, however, tran
spired. These facts prove the high and grow
ing reputation of Virginia stocks With the
improvement in her system Of finance, the con-
stitutional restrictions to be thrown around the
increase of her debt, and prudence on the part
of her fiscal authorities, we do not doubt that
these stocks will be classed amongst the most
valuable and permanent in the market

CAMPAIGNS OF THE Rio GRANDE AND OF MEXICO,
with notices of the recent work of Major Ripley.
By Brevet Major ISAAC ]. STEVENS. PIP. los.

In this volume are presented the strategic views

fame in the great struggle which forms his theme.
Those who desire acquaintance with the intel
lectual basis which the operations in Mexico
really rested, will find in the work oil Major Ste

lating TO Scots brilliant campaign, is there con-
slant evidence Of thorough knowledge, both of the
details and grand strategy ofthe operations treated
There is here freshness and vigor in the rapid
comments Of the writer, smacking strongly OF light
artillery eloquence. The graces of style are not
courted but direct clear statement of facts and
deas forms the leading object
We could wish that Major Ripley had been left
out for his too broad appearance in the foreground

much powder. But his obliquties of vision gave
occasion for the present book, ought, perhaps
to thank him. Nor do agree with Major Ste

MAJOR Stevens, though evidently Democrat, is

The Richmond Republican, publishes letter from

The Richmond Republican publishes letter from
Judge Duncan, one of the commissioners from Vir-
ginia to the Worlds Fair, complaining very much
of the treatment which the southern members of
the commission have received from the English
The judge expresses his confident belief that there
exists fixed determination of the part of the Eng
lish government. backed by the popular senti-
ment of the nat,n and by the press, to dissolve the
American Union" The paper endorses this senti-
ment of Judge Duncan's, and thinks that all the
interests of Great Britain lie upon the side of the
destruction of our power, and that not only her
commercial superiority Is at stake, but that her
very existence, the great manufacturing and
carrying nation Of the whole world, depends upon
keeping down rivalry, and, if possible. in the
breaking up of our nationality. Judge Duncan
says that the keeping up of the slavery excitement
by England ID the entering wedge to the attempt
ed destruction of our supremacy, and therefore ad
vises the South its true policy "to stick to the
Union" He is surprised that South Carolina does
that secession will but be the means of
minating her independence and ranking her only
as one of the colonies of England. He says "South
Carolina may form treaty with England, receive
English protection and English fabrics in exchange
for her cotton; all this the English have already
through her agents, promised her But let South
Carolina get within the coils of this great boa con-
structor, and she will find the embrace is death

PRor. HoRsFoRD's MONUMENT EXPERIMENT.
1t is wonderful to think the Bunker Hill Monu-
ment is bending like bow backward and forward
every day by the influence, of the sun AS the sun
during midday shines the south side of it, that
side expands, becomes longer than the north side,
and the consequence is that it bends towards
the north The same must be true of all other tall
monuments, and also of tall chimneys, for some OF
the latter are five hundred feet high. This move
ment is not simply from the south towards the
north, as at midday, but in the morning it must
be westerly, at noon northerly, and in the evening
easterly. These results have been Unexpectedly
ascertained by Professor Horsford and his pendu-
suits, while searching carefully after object,
another ia unexpectedly found. Herschel, for in
stance, in trying to find the paralax of the fixed
stars, was astonished to find them whirling by
twos, threes, and tours, around each other. The
Boston Cabinet thus informs
1--WE learn from good authority that Professor
Horsford meets with an unexpected difficulty in
making successful experiments, in reference to the
rotation of the earth, on Bunker Hill Monument.
The difficulty, not insuperable, is found in the in
huences of sunlight and heat, in changing the
centre OF gravity in the monument. The stones
in the structure follow the universal law OF expan-
sion under the influence of the sun; and hence the
monument, during bright day, is based north
ward to about three fourths of inch, 80 chang
ing the centre of gravity and the point of oscilla-
ton that distance This natural and curious fact
compels the professor to change the point from
which the long pendulum is suspended once or
twice each day more less according to the length
and intenseness of the heat of the day"

THE OPP Fellows AND THE NEGRoEs.-One of
the newspapers having sta ted that the coored cler
gyman recently arrested here charge of theft
had certificate OF Odd Fellowship about him, the
editor of the Golden Rule, the organ of the Order
in this city, New York; comes out in a state
ment that there must be mistake somewhere.
He says there colored members connected
with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows in the
United States. The Manchester Unity" some
years ago, granted dispensation to negro appli.
cants from the United States, informed, af-
ter the request had been utterly refused by the
Order here But this statement is in turn corrected
by the corresponding secretary of the Universal
|. o. of o. F.. who states that
"The Manchester Unity have never granted
dispensation to negro applicants. They granted
the original dispensation to the Independent Order
Of Odd Fellows in the United States, which body
continued in connexion with the Manchester Unity
up to the year 1912, when they seeded from it.
Since that time the Manchester Unity has granted
dispensations for lodges TO members in the United
States, who have subsequently formed themselves
into body, known by the name OF the Universal
Independent Order of Odd Fellows, and are still
acting in unison with the Manchester Unity but
there are colored members in connexion with
them. The Order of Odd Fellows in the United
States, composed of the colored population, had
their dispensation granted to them by the Grand
United Order of Odd Fellows by which name
they still known in the United States"
This ''Universal' Independent Order of Odd Eel
lowe stands, however, in the same category with
the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows of negroes
They are not recognised by the |. o. of O. f. in
the United States, and their "universality'' COM
prises a small territory only here. These various
orders of Odd Fellowship originating in Great Bri-
tain have constituents among the free negroes of
the United States, of Canada and the West Indies,
kind Of constituents the l. o. of o. +. in the Uni
ted States have wisely excluded from among them.
