CIRCULAR.
WASHINGTON, September 9.
The Treasury DOpartnnont has Issued a
circular for the guidance of the collections
of internal revenue and customs, by which
it is provided that articles under the in
ternal revenue laws may be removed from
any collection district of the States late
in rebellion and shipped to New York,
Philadelphia, Baltimore, Boston, Cairo.
st. Louis Cincinnati or New Orleans, on
the execution by shippers of satisfacto-
ry bond to be given to internal revenue
collectors, at the place from whence the
articles are to be removed, and duty paid
to the collector at the port of destination.
@. Derby, Esq, the United States Des-
patch agent, at New York, will act as
agent thereof for persons who may wish to
send articles to the Paris exhibition next
year.
NAVAL NEws.l
All trials between the Alquoquin and
Winooski, as recommended by the civil
ians and experts, will be carried out bv
the Navy Department, should the entire
winter be thus consumed
The United States steamers Rhode
Island and Hornet, the latter formerly
known as the blockade runner Lady Ster-
ling, are ordered to proceed to Havana to
convey to Washington the rebel ram
Stonewall, surrendered to the United
States by the Spanish authorities. The
assignment of Rhode Island to this dnty
disputes the oft repeated report that it was
fitting cut to convey President johnson to
North Carolina and other southern ports
The principles recently recently applied
in the Navy Yard by Secretary Welles,
forbidding the assessment of a tax on
workmen for party purposes, will be ap-
piled to all other departments of the
government.
NOT CREDITED.
The English story that Mr.. Seward gave
notice to Great Britain of the Fenian
movements continues to excite comment
in the Secretary's absence, but it is not
credited by those who are presumed to be !
in a position to give it an unequivocal |
denial.
FREEDMEN's AFFAIRS.
The Freedmen S Bureau is in receipt of |
letter from Governor Sharkey, of Missis-
sippi, to Col. Thomas, Assistant Comis-
sioner for that State, in reply to the in
quiry of the latter in regard to the Freed
men and their affairs.
The Governor says: / have no hesita-
ton in stating to you, as a necessary result
of the action of the Convention, that
Freedmen can now sue and be sued
in any court in the Statej and un
evidence of their right to protection of
person and property, which are guaran-
tied to them by the amended constitution,
they are competent to testify in any court
of Justice Their rights, think, are fully
covered by the principle established by
the Convention, which abolished the whole
system of slavery, and as a matter of
course, any measure Of policy which grew
out of that system.

Davis effects being counted in the Treas
ury Department, amount to Ss1s7S in

LONDON TIMES ON FENIANIsNI.
The London Times, in leader says:
The more we hear of Fenianism, the more !
ire we struck by the contrast between its
essential weakness and the extent of its
'amifications. On paper, no doubt it
must look formidable enough. Fenianism
proves that the influence of emigration to
America is beginning to react upon Ire :
and. No Irish mind is logical enough to :
understand how it can be right that man :
Who could make his fortune in America
hould live in a mud-cabin in Ireland. /
Small farmers receive glowing letters (;
rom relatives in America, describing the :
which may be enjoyed under a
epublic, and forthwith draw the infer
nee that republic in ireland would at
nee increase the population, bring plenty
o homes, give them tenements, abolish
he potatoe disease-truth is Fenianism.
txtravagant as it is, it is mOreof a social
evolution than any other movement. 1t
trikes at all authority, and would level Y
he Roman Catholic Church quite as ruth (
essly as the Protestant establishment
We have no fears of the Fenian armada )
fter the parent society in Amerca learns !,
he fate of their ilibustering delegates, :
IcCaferty and OCOnnel, but it may take ,
ONE time to extirpate the leven of 4
american ideas which is now mingling &
nth the chronic discomfort of Ireland. g
he story that the American ship Han q
al1 had been ose-hasalsd by sBraiAar car :
wing Fenian flag was hoax. r
Five alleged Fenians were arrested in g
killarney, Including the clerks in the :,
Post Office and in the Crown q
rosecution Office of Kerry. u
CATTLE PLAGUE.
The cattle plague is largely increasing, Il
nd the same disease has broken out among W
ne sheep. A post mortem examination N
n diseased sheep proves undoubtedly all a
lmiliar works of the same disease. Il
PRESIDENT JOHNsON's POLICY. s.
The Times says there is every reason to \
ope that peace abroad and at home will y
e President Johnson's policy. Few ex- =
ected he who denounced rebellion so 81
rongly would display such moderation :,
! the hour of triumph, or so eager parti- e. e.
IN would have been capable of rising so a,
r above party influences. n
