From Washington.

WASHINGTON, Dec. H.-0fficial informa-
ton has reached the Department. of State OF
the ratification by the Legislatures of Indi-
ana, Georgia and Alabama, of the proposed
amendment to the Constitution of the
United States on the subject of slavery.
While Mr.. Burlingame, our Minister to
China, was in this citv, he was the recipient
of marked attention not only from the Sec
retary of State and other high functiona-
ries of the Government, but from the dip
lomatic corps, and especially from Colonel
RoOsloff, the Danish Minister, and Sir Fred
erick Bruce, who had agreeable official in
terviews with him in China, while repre-
senting their respective Governments in
that Empire, both of these gentlemen
speaking of him in the most tlattering
terms and entertaining him with generous
hospitalities. He returns to his post with
the full confidence of his Government.
Those who favor the retention of the
veteran reserve corps say, after an eXamin-
alton into the subject, that those officers
represent four hundred disbanded volunteer
organizations, and that large portion of
them were wounded in the late campaign in
Virginia.
Owing to the time required for copying
the diplomatic correspondence with Eng
land and France, referred to in the Presi-
dents annual Message, it is not probable
that the transcript will be communicated
to Congress till after the holidays. If it is
true, as repeatedly reported, that General
Logan has declined the Mexican mission,
the fact is certainly known in official quar-
ters.
General Grant is not likely to leave
Washington until Congressional action
has been taken on military affairs. House
Foreign committee dined with Seward
Saturday night. Postmaster General Den
nison has issued circular to railroad man
ayers, enforcing the necessity of prompt
transmission of mails during the winter.

yNEw YORK. Dec. 16.-The Commercial
says: The market is well supplied with
loanable funds, and to-day there is some
running around to place money over Sum
day, even at per cent; the ruling rate,
however, on call loans, being per cent.
The payment of intereston 7-30s has put a
good deal of surplus money on the market,
but the increased supply of funds does not
seem likelytto produce any reduction in the
rate of interest. The demand from the
street is on the increase, owing to the
growing activity of stock speculation. The
railroad speculation is confined chiefly to
Reading, Columbus & Pittsburg, and Cleve-
land & Toledo. Cleveland & Pittsburg has
reached from the late bears report, and
with large transactions closed at 0l an
advance of 81 upon yesterday afternoon.
The sales of Cleveland & Toledo reached
l0,400 shares, closing at ~ advance. Chi
cago Il Northwestern common was more
active, and rose %. The excitement In O..
& NJ certificates has subsided, but the price
Ills firm at "A advance. The demand for
Governments is less active, and gold inter-
est bonds are weaker. The demand for dis
count Is active both at the banks and on the
street. The banks are dealing in paper
rather more freely, but show decided pref
erence for well known names. Prime bills
are discounted at 100 per cent. Other
grades more slowly at l0@l5 per cent.
Gold is less active, but quiet and firm. A
report was current-on the street this fore
noon that General Logan had left Washing
ton for his destination as Minister to Mexi-
co, but 1t fell flat on the market. For
eigneXchange is nominal as usual on Sat
urdays,

Innugurnti, m Of Gov. Jenkins, of
Georgia.

MILLEDGEvILLE. GA, Dec. 14.-Governor
jenkins was inaugurated to-day Governor
of this State. j., -..f o. -fr r.sF
Gov. jenkins, in his address to the Leg
islature, says: There is no conflict between
the Constitution of the United States and
the Constitution of the State of Georgia.
The laws of the United States are supreme.
The Governor then pays handsome trib-
ute to the good conduct of negroes during
the war, and says they must be thoroughly
protected in their personal property and
have the right to enter the courts. They
should be encouraged to work, and then
they would be the best working class and
their late owners the best employers in the
world. The Governor then reviews the
condition of the State institutions, and says
that for time even the lightest taxes will
prove burdensome, but he thinks in the
end the people will not suffer. He con-
cludes his address with an earnest prayer
that God will help us all.
At the close of the address Provisional
Governor johnson handed the great seal of
the State of Georgia to Gov. jenkins, who
took the oath of office and was then declar-
ed by the President Of the Senate the Gov
ernor of the State.
The sentiments of the address are most
cordially endorsed by the members of the
State Legislature, which adjourns to-mor-
row,
