Mysterious Discoveries.
HANGING NEGROES IN SOUTH
CAROLINA.
EMANCIPATION TRIUMPHANT H
MISSOURI.
A silly Cnmnrd,

New York, Dec. 30.-A Norfolk letter
contains the following:
\ British subject who came here from
Charleston within few days, brings in
formation that 10 negroes were hung
in the streets just prior to his departure
This occurred in consequence Of
discovery made in rather singular
manner. The whites there have for some
time past been watching closely the
movements of the blacks, and thinking
they observed an unusual number Of fu-
nerals among them, white man dis
guised himself, and following one Of the
professions. On arriving at the burying
ground, he discovered that the coffin con
tanned arms, which were taken and buri-
ed in a vault in which number had
already been deposited. The conse-
quenSe Of the discovery was the execu-
ton of 10 Of the most intelligent OF the
conspirators.
A Washington letter states that ru-
mors of foreign Intervention are quite
common here, but cannot he traced to
any authentic source.
1t is however claimed by many intelli-
gent persons that Mr.. Seward confident
ly expects the Intervention of the French
Government in our affairs, and he has
shaped the foreign diplomacy of this
country Of late wholly in reference to
such danger.
Hence he comedies the trade going on
between New York and the French in
Mexico, and in Corwin.s singular con-
duet i'll Mexico, the exact facts in the
case being not likely to appear at pres
ent.
The proposal of mediation come
through English papers.

GJ~ We understand from Paymaster
Yohn, of this city, who has just returned
from tho Mississippi, that the report we
published yesterday morning, from the
Evansville journal, of the capture of a

coo, by the rebels in Northwestern Ten
nessce, recently, is untrue. He was one
of the party, reported captured. Learn

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.--It is ascertain
ed authoritatlvely beyond doubt, that
there is no foundation for the rumor that
the Committee OF Ways and Means have
entertained any proposition TO exchange
the existing law for receiving old de-
mand Treasury notes for customs.
The Secretary of the Treasury has de-
cided not to make any further issue of
certificates of Indebtedness beyond the
limited amount already to the credit of
disbursing officers.
1t is understood that holders will have
the privilege, as soon as practicable to
fund them into 20 years 6 per cent.
