REBEL GOLD.

The amount of gold in the possession Of
the rebel government whom It fell was over
three million of dollars. About three hun
dred thousand dollars of this has been traced
70 rebel quartermasters, paymasters, COM
missaries, and other rebel disbursing officers.
From TAYLOR, HErH, JOHNSON, GIBBoS, and
others, about forty or fifty thousand dollars
have actually been accounted for and secured
by the Government.
In disposing of the cases Of the men named
above, the Government has settled a policy
that confederate officer cannot appropriate
property left in his hands by the late JEFF.
DAVIS government, but must turn it over to
the Government Of the United States, to
which the confederacy surrendered.
Several of the men named above, not rec
ognizing this fact, have held the property
which was in their possession at the time o.
the fall Of the rebellion, and have conse
quently placed themselves in the false atti
tude Of having robbed the United States
when, in fact, they did not mean to place
themselves in any such position.

It appears probable that this State will
have considerable representation knocking
at the doors Of Congress next week. Messrs.
HAHN and CUTLER, Senators elect under the
constitution Of 1854, continue their applica-
ton for admission. But Governor WELLS
asks the present Legislature-elected under
the same constitution-to attempt to dis.
place them, and to elect two successors, upon
the ground, as We understand, that only a
fraction of the State was represented in the
Legislature of l864-65. Five gentlemen
all Democrats-will appear to claim seats Al
representatives Of the several districts, and
Hon. II. c. YARMOUTH appears to claim q
seat as delegate from the Territory Of Lou
isiana." He represents constituency o.
1906 persons, of whom about two thousand
arc white men. OF his case the New Orleans
Tribune says:
That gentleman takes with him petition
signed by numerous white citizens Of the
State, respectfully asking Congress to refuse
for the present the readmission Of Louisiani
into the Union. Mr.. Yarmouth Is also the
bearer Of q certificate, drawn by n public
notary and signed by the commissaries o.
elections and the members Of the Contra
Committee. 1t il stated In that certineat'
that 10, l05 votes were east In eleven par
ishss for Mr.. Yarmouth. Our readers know
that for various reasons no election could b'
held by the disfrAnehised people in thirty
seven parishes Of the State.

PARTIAL REVOCATION OF THE
SUSPENSION OF THE WRIT OF
HABEAs CORPUS.


Elsewhere in to-day's REPUBLICAN will be
found the Official proclamation of the Presi
dent, foreshadowed in these columns, annuI-
ling all proclamations Suspending the privi.
lege of the writ of ka5eas corpus, and restor-
ing the same in all the States and Territories
throughout the United States where the
reasons for its suspension are regarded as
having ceased.
We regret that the District of Columbia
is not yet in a condition to be included
among the sufficiently loyal territories to
warrant the restoration Of the writ, but
wo are able to state that we know that
the President is as anxious for its resto-
ration in this District as any of its citi.
zens can be. There exists certain complca-
tions, against some of which we have had
occasion to complain Of late, which have
made the continuance of the suspension nc.
tually necessary here, but We are confident
that the obstructions to it's privilege will
soon be removed.
Until then let us congratula the country
that the President has been able TO do SO
much towards restoring to the citizens of the
loyal States all the rights to which they are
entitled under the writ of haJeas corpus.
