Gen. Fitzpatrick on the Future
... Party Of the Country. i..t.I.

BosToN, Nov. 3O.--Tremont Temple was
crowded with an Intelligent audience this
evening TO listen TO lecture by Gen. Kill
patrick on the future party of the country.
The General was introduced with appro-
pirate remarks by Gov. Andrew, and was
received with enthusiastic and prolonged
cheering. He said: In considering the
question what is to be and what shall be
the future party of this country, that party
must, first of all, be just; it must also be
patriotic; not patriotism as a catch word,
but the patriotism which had met and sub
dued treason against the countryside pat
riotism of Lincoln, Seward. Stanton, Grant,
Sherman, Dix, Butler, Banks, Sheridan and
Others; the patriotism of Andrew johnson.
who holds the destinies of the country in
his hands. He did not believe that John
son had or would disregard the promise of
freedom made OH the steps Of the Capitol
of Tennessee, or his language since, for the
punishment of treason. That party also
should be progressive, and, above all, truly
Republican in idea and Democratic in all
its operations. When this country shall
have forgotten to act upon the principle Of
justice, humanity and truth, it will have
parted with the secret of its greatness.
With an adherence to these principles the
Government will be pure, powerful and
permanent.

Contested Sea1s In Congress.

New YORK, Nov. 3O.-A special to the
Times from Washington SAYS: There will
be seven contested seatsi in the coming Con-
gress. There is the case OF Brooks vs.
Dodge, in the 8th New York District, in
which-a strong contest will be made. Mr..
Brooks is the sitting member. In the 10th
Pennsylvania District there is a contest be-
tween Messrs. w. Ii. Kountz, Republican,
and A. II. COffroth, Democrat. The proba-
bility is that the case will come up at once,
that Kountz will be given the seat, and
the case referred to to the Committee on
Elections. In the 2lst Pennsylvania Dis
trict, Smith Fuller, Republican, contests the
certificate OF John j.. Dawson, Democrat.
In the 18th Ohio District, the seat of CO.
lumbus DelanO, Republican. Is contested by
MIR. FOllett, Democrat. In the 9TH Indiana
District, the seat OF ID. w. Voorhees,, Demo-
crat is contested by Col. ii. d. Washburne,
Republican. In the 4th Missouri District,
the seat of Capt. Kelso, Republican, is con-
tested by,S. III. Boyd, Democrat. In the
9th Michigan District, the seat of Mr..
TrOwbridge, Republican, is contested by
Augustus e. Baldwin. The credentials of
members are very slow in arriving, and it
is doubtful if the Clerk will be able to
make up his roll in time from the creden-
tials received. ..
There is no contest case this term from
any of the Territories. The certificate of
Gov. Goodwin, the delegate elect from Ar.
izonia, has been received, signed by him
self.
OF course not more than three or four of
the members elect from Southern States
have arrived. They evidently prefer to
await the issue at home and save expense.
Among those here is Jacob Baker, the well
known banker of New Orleans, who is the
member from that District.

Executive authority of the State in fresh
evidence that Louisiana is determined to
stand or fall with President johnson in his
reconstruction policy. Other parts of the

Mexican News-rhe FiVe-Twenty
Treasury Notes.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 30.-Additional official
news has been received by the Mexican
Minister, to the effect that not only the
State of Chihuhua, but that of Sinola, was
being evacuated by the French, who could
no lon ger oppose the Republican insurrec-
tion. Abandoning Nova Concordia and
Marseilles, they were compelled to embark
at Mazatlan, where only 400 were lett.
This retreat had encouraged the patriots,
who, under the command of Gen. Rubi,
were getting ready to attack the city, thus
putting an end to the French invasion of
SinOla. .r
The five per cent. Treasury notes becom-
ing due December lst must be forwarded
by the holder TO the Treasury at Washing
ton for redemption, and it would be advis-
able, to avoid losses, that the signature
should be epunched, care being taken not to
destroy the numbers.
The following named officers have been
brevetted Major Generals in the United
States Army: Paymaster General b. w.
Brice, Inspector Genersl James A. Hardie,
Provost Marshal General James B. Fry,
Assistant Quartermaster General Charles

Claims for Stores and Subsistence
. Opinion of .Judge Holt.

New York Nov. 30.-'rhe. Times WASH
ington special says: Judge Holt, Chief of
the Bureau of Military Justice, gave an
opinion yesterday, promulgated by, order
of the Secretary of War, constituting the ID
and 81 sections of the act of Congress, pass
ed July 4, 1864, which proelaims that the
claims of loyal citizens in States not in re-
belliOn, for quartermaster's stores and for
subsistence actually furnished to the army
of theUnited States,and reeeipted for by the
proper officers receiving the same, or which
mayhave been COTTON withouta receipt,may
be submitted, respectively, to the Quarter
master General or Commissary General. If
found just &c, the last named official shall
recommend the aim to the 3D. Auditor for
settlement. Judge Holt holds that to justify
the action contemplated by the ID and Sd
sections of the act of July 4th 1854 not
only must the claimant be a loyal citizen,
but the claim, also, must originate in loy-
al State. The words "Clams of loyal citi-
zens in States not in rebellion, arising in
disloyal States then at open war with the
Government, will be allowed" is ques-
tion so complicated with political and other
considerations proper for the determination
of Congress, that it Is believed that the Ex-
ecutive Administration should not assume
to act on such claims without the clearest
auChority conferred by law. 1t Is not sup
posed to lave been the intention of Com
gress to bestow such authority by the act
referred to this Bureau for consideration.

Wants Jeff Davis and Gen. Lee
Hung.
New YORK, Nov. 30.-The Commercials
Washington special says: Mr.. Mcpherson,
the Clerk of the House, has decided to leave
the names of the Virginia and Tennessee
members from the initial roll. The friends
ofthe President, however, insist that Horace
Maynard and Colestock, members elect
from Tennessee, must be admitted at the
organization of the House. They will
probably be admitted.
Robert Toombs has escaped from Georgia
and sailed tor Europe. 1t will be remeIn-
bered that the Government officers attempt
ed 70 arrest him at the same time Stephens
aud G.. &. Clay were nabbed. They pro-
creded to Toonlbs' house, but he disappears
ed out of one door as they entered at an
other. ToOmbs and Breckenridge will
never secure pardons from Andrew john
son. -r
1t is positively asserted here that Gen.
Butler is preparing a legal argumentshOw-
ing how Davis and Lee can be tried by a
military tribunal. Asl

New YORK, Nov. 3O.-A special to the
World from Washington says: Gen. Full
lerton, who has just returned from Louisi-
ana, reports the planters unable to obtain
sufficient amount of laborers, and they
could employ several thousand more freed
men than there is in the State. Citizens of
Louisiana are absorbed in repairing the
losses sustained during the war, and take
very little interest in political or military
movements. Real estate rents and all pro-
duets are commanding high prices, and all
branches of business have been resumed
with degree of energy unusual iii that
section.
1t has been strongly intimated to-day
that the Clerk of the House intended to
place the name of the Tennessee delegation
of Congressman elect on the rolls on the
first day of the session. 1t is asserted that
Tennessee is in the same category with
other Southern States, and If this intention
is carried out, an Ohio member will move
to strike the names from the roll. Those
who favor the measure say that Tennessee
is fully restored to the Union, and is, there
fore, entitled to immediate representation.
Nearly all of the Tennessee Congressman
elect are here. ao 4"

New YORK, Nov. 30.-A special to the
Herald from Fortress Monroe says: All
Congressman elect from Virginia are pre-
pairing to leave for Washington. The oath
question is to be tested by Mr.. Stuart, who
will make application to take his seat with
out taking the test oath. rvT-- d.
Chief Justice Chase had telegraphed that
he would not attend the present term of the
U. S. Dislrict Court at Norfolk. A pro-
longed session is anticipated. Nearly every
one who has had land conhscated proposes
to make an effort, through that channel, for
its recovery. 1t is thought efforts will be
made during the present session to indlct
JEFF. Davis tor treason.

and emoluments with Pennsylvania. which
has SO long enjoyed a monopoly of them.
A struggle to depose Mr.. McPhtrson from
the Clerkship of the House will undOubted-
ly be made. Several candidates for the
Clerkship are being talked over by MEM
bers already here, and it would seem from
their earnestness that Mr.. Mcpherson has
more to do than to walk over the course
The nameof Richard A. Sherman, of Onei-
da county, for yeas and nays Clerk of the
House, is mentioned in this connection.
The officers of the Pension Bureau are
convinced that there are large number of
Pension Agents in New England and the
Western States who are palming them
selves off upon people entitled to Pensions,
as licensed Agents of the Bureau, who are
entirely unauthorized. All Agents for
Pensions are required to hold licenses from
the Commissioner of the Bureau.
