HoNoRABLE THIEVES Two Or three days after
Emerson Etheridge was installed as clerk of the
United States House of Representatives, the Hon
David Kilgore, member of Congress from Indi-
ana, stepped across from his own seat into the
clerks Office, and began to complain, in the most
violent terms, of the Secretary of War The chief
source of his ire against that important official
was that he had refused lot of bacon, just offered
him, at the low price of ten cents, neat. Thadeus
Stevens, who sat behind a newspaper, allowed
his Indiana friend to finish the story of his grev-
ance, when, laying aside his paper he thus accost-
ed him: "kilgore, you are the most Internal fool
in Congress. You amt fit to hold a seat in Con
gress, and if anybody will introduce resolution to
expel you, | will vote for it, Kilgore, little
surprised at the sudden assault of his brother
Black Republican, wanted to know why he was
so violent. "Fll tell you" says Stevens, "you,
man Of sense and a member of Congress- to ask
only ten cents of Simon Cameron for bacon? You
eternal fool Why didn't you put 20 ur price at
thirty cents? Then you'd have got fifteen, and
fifteen would have been left for the contracting
party! Fogh Pm ashamed of YOU" There was
more truth than jest in that joke 1t is kew to

ment that Mr.. Levson had been found dead in his
bed at his boa ding-house. We learn the following
particulars in relation to the manner Of his death
He was suffering with neuralgia, and was advised
to use chlorotorm. He procured some, and on
going to bed saturated his handkerchief with and
applied it to the affected part It is supposed that
the effects of the choroform soon produced sleep,
and that in the night the handkerchief fell over his
face, and caused his death. ~ .o.
Mr.. Levison was extensively known throughout
the State as an active business man. He was a
citizen of New Orleans, and we learn that his re-
mains will be conveyed to that city for nterment,

HARD, BUT JUST ON THE PuR1TANS.-A few DAYS
ago nag was presented by the ladies of Griffin,
Ca, to regiment of Confederate troops. Capt
Crawford received it. and here below is part of
what he said:
or the antecedents of the Puritan history and
our own experience have shown as disconnected
and disturbing. Without authority he is artful
oyerreaching,. His measure of conscience is the
measure Of all other consciences. In England, he
interdicted the Liturgy which had given consola.
kicked the phlegmatc Dutch and cuffed the non.
beiligerent Quaker, and drove them from their
possessions. With us, he has ever been on the
war party in peace and the peace party in war.
He has kept US entangled and excited for the past
forty years. Happily we are now rid of him. He
is our enemy. When history shall faithfully re-
cord the origin of this flag, he will be delineated
as the sole and pernicious cause. 1t sprang from
the accumulation Of his wrongs; it will wave in
defiance of his hostility.

TALK ON CHANGE.

| TWAS remarkably quiet on the flags yesterday.
The grand boulevard Canal was partially deserted
long, previous to the usual hour of 3 O'Clock
Carondelet street. in the absence of our cosmopo-
lite citizens, the buyers of cotton, appears alto
gether deserted. Shipping agents, or many Of
them, have retired to the pine woods. Cotton fac
tors are about to follow, excepting those who are
not exempts, and intend to fight the Hessians to
the bitter end. Exchange and bill-brokers are
eanVassing the question, when the war will end OF
the blockade be raised. Two important things,
wrapped, as were in the vista of futurity. Stock
and note dealers are bulng the market at terri.
PIE rate. Salt dealers were remarkably quiet.
kron ties were slack, wood hoops growing in favor
pagglng and rope moving very slowly, Among
the features of Carondelet street, is the very great
stagnancy in the demand for carriages and phse-
tons IN fact, the large carriage mandatory,
corner Of carondelet and Gravier streets, appears
to be deserted. Costly coaches are not in demand.
wagons, carts and gun-carriages appear to be
much more in request. Confouna two thousand

work Of independence is progressing by the for.

required at this time is the assistance of some men

banks, yielding not the value of dime.

mond correspondent OF the Memphis Appeal says:
The lawyers and politicians are sti hunting up
decisions in the Reporters bearing upon the arrest
Of Messrs. Mason and Slidel, and the Enquirer of
this morning contains a capital article, sort Of
fedctio dd dbSurd.tne of the right to arrest which
is supposed to be from the pen of the Secretary of
War. The discussion of the question is only a
matter of amusement until we can hear from the
English cabinet; and meanwhile, the best thing
we can do is to proceed without reference to the
course they may be pleased to take in the premises
Butfor such as are interested in the examination
of the point Of international law, raised by the
capture, would mention decision which, so far
as have seen, has not yet been adduced by the
legal gentlemen. 1t was given in the case of
Forbes VS., Cochrane, and is to be found in the
English Common Law Reports, Vol. X. In that
case it was held by the Kings Bench that an Eng
lish ship was to the fullest extent as much part
of the British realm as would be an English island
or, inde ed, the q fast-anchored ise'I Of Albion
itself With this dioteoe on hand and recalling the
fact that the Trent, sailing under English coors
from the neutral port of Havana to The neutral
port Of Liverpool, was in the legitimate proseCu-
ton OF her ordinary business on herreturn voyage
1t IS difficult to see how the English Government
can fail to consider the act of Commodore Wilkes
as gross and wanton outrage, calling for the
promptest and most decided reparation,
