Leaving on hand from this Fund. .S501, ,27S 76
Against this Fund, or against the Treasury,
on account of the agencies referred to, there
are no outstanding claims, except such as
loyal owners of property may present and
substantiate.
Among the items of expenditure will be
found one for the purchase, reftting and run
ming Of the steamer Flora. In the prosecu-
ton of their work by the special agents,
steamer of light draft and of large carrying
capacity was found necessary for the pur-
pose of conveying property from the several
plantations to the transports. Accordingly,
tho Flora was purchased for this purpose
from the proceeds Of the sales and it is pro-
per to add that she is reported to have rem
dered important service in military operations
both while under the charge of the agents of
this department and since her transfer to the
Depafment of War. and can now be sold for
a very considerable advance on her cost.
For the information of the House, trans
nit detailed account, prepared in answer to
a resolution of the Senate, Of the sales ofcot-
ton in New York, the time of sale, the per-
sons by and to whom sold, with the amount
paid for commissions ana storage. No infor
nation is in my possession as toexpenditures to

mentioned to the War Department, In June

From this statement it will be seen that no
expenditure whatever has been made from the
Treasury on account of the collection of cot
ton. or for its preparation for sale, or for the
cultivation of the plantations, or for the hire
or subsistence of lahorers. or for any educa-
tional or benevolent care bestowed upon them.

SELLING A WIFE.-An English paper re-

the wife of farm laborer in Yorkshire de-
serted her husband for another man just
now she returns, and desires to be accepted
again; the injured husband Furnishes her
with blows, and will have none of her;
thereupon she complains of him for an as
sault. and he is fined. Thus far we see moth
ing unusual for England; but in revenge for
this judicial appeal of the woman, the irate
husband publicly announced his intention of
selling her to the highest bidder. in the mar
ket-plaoe, He was as good as his word, for

by horses halter about her neck, and after
some spirited bidding she was knocked off to

tioneer; he escaped, however, and the the sale

4 MAzEPPA TRAGEDY IS TExAs-The es-
cape of Gen. 4. j. Hamilton from Texas has
been related but the General himself may
be ignorant of the fate Of one of his com
panions-Clum Mckane whose adventures
find 10 parallel save in the tragic play of
Mazeppa. When Hamilton escaped from
Texas reward of $1,000 was offered for his
arrest, and he was pursued by party of
Texan rangers. who followed him into Mex
leo, and, while dogging hi path in the rear,
they sent messengers ahead who reported to
the rancheros that the General and his com.
panions were band of thieves.
Findingi it impossible to obtain food on the
road, Hamilton dispatched C1um to Camargo
for permit to travel. He was taken pris-
oner by the rebels, stripped naked and bound
to high spirited horse, which was let loose
among the chapparel. The poor fellow was
thus borne several miles, the thorns and
points of the priekly pear laeerating his bol-
dy in shocking manner. Weak and bleed
ing he was taken across the Rio Grande to
San Ignacio 70 be hung" A handkerchief
which his would be murderers had stolen
from him, was returned as he was entering
the town. and this tied about his loins constf-
tuted his only covering
4 relative of his wife interceded and saved
his life, and he was taken to San Antonio
and thrown into prison, where he remained
several months with ball and chain attach
cd to his limbs. Having been captured on
ficss.Sa.i soil, N..t.aurie, the Governor of New
Leon, made FORMAL demand for his release,
which demand the rebels studiously conceal
ed from the people. while they went through

oner McKane made his way back to Me1i-
