New ORLEANS, Dec. 9.-The Monroe
Register complains Of military interference
to take from the sheriff OF the parish Treas
ury sub-agent, who had been arrested by a
Judges decree on an affidavit made charging
him with stealing cotton aud obtaining cot
ton under false pretences.
The Register makes strong complaints
against the Treasury agent management Of
the cotton business in that section and south
ern Arkansas. It states that Mr.. Burbridge,
Treasury agent at New Orleans, has INSTRUCTED
his agent at Monroe to disregard writs OF So
questration and injunctions issued by the
State court. Claims to cotton taken BY the
agents are TO be tried and investigated on
the spot, and forward the cotton to New Or
leans.
Judge Paschal, on his return from Wash

Henry Boyer, of Alexandria, who, before the
war was United States judge for the western
district Of Louisiana. .-..-

dria Journal OF yesterday evening:
AROthsr Accident.-There seems to be law
less set Of persons along the line Of the Orange
and Alexandria Railroad who are determine
that It shall not be operated under the pre- eni
management. On the night Of the 9Th inst. , a.
the southward bound train on this road wSs ap.
preaching Gotham station the engineer discov
cred heavy railroad frog on the track, but toe
late to stop the train and avoid an accident. The
damage to the engine was one truck axle broken,
efectually disabling 1t for the time being. For
tunately the train escaped without injury. Such
acts Of scoundrelism deserve the cehsure Of every
honorable man, but we fear there are many along
the line OF the road who profess to be honorable
but yet applaud such hendish acts as these.
Purchase OI Church. The members OF the
Third Baptist Church (Preed men) Of this city
have purchased the frame church and grounds
attached, on the corner Of Princess and Patrick
streets, for the sum Of 81, 900. This church be-
longed to the Methodist Episcopal denomination, ,
but the war having dispersed the congregation,
thought II best to dispose Of 1t to the freedmen.
Rev. Geo W. Parker is the pastor Of this church

We are informed that Daniel r. Magruder,
Esq, of Calvert county, has taken the ini,
tiatory steps toeontest his right to the Judge,
ship of this judicial circuit, composed Of
Anna Arundel and Calvert counties. Judge
Tuck, who now helds the office, was appointed
by Governor Bradford to fill the vacancy oc.
casioied by the death of Judge Brewer. It
is contended by many that his appointment
will not expire until the end of the term for
which Judge Brewer was elected. Others
contend that the appointment only held to
the. last general election. Under these cir
cumstHnces the Union party of the district
made no nomination, but Judge Tuck was
generally voted for as the Union candidate
Mr.. Magruder was recommended by the Dem
ocratic convention as their candidate, and
received majority of the votes of the dis
trict, The question in dispute is whether
there was or not vacancy at the time Of
the elcction.-ARhapoLis Ga=stte.

SECOND EDITION

FoUR o'cLoCE. II. M.
The Illinois State Journal says:

THE PRESS AND THE PRHsI-
DENTS MESSAGE.
The Illinois State Journal says;
1t Is o document which, not merely on &c.
count Of the important questions which II
discusses, but on account Of the able and
satisfactory manner in which II discusses
them, is well worthy the attention Of our
readers. II Is hardly necessary, however, for
ms TO commend 1t 10 their careful porusal,
for there never has been heretofore mani
tested a greater anxiety among the people to
learn the views and opinions Of the Chiel
Executive Of the nation.
The Newburyport (Mass.) Herald says:
The Presidents message as yet has not
been largely commented on. 1t Is generally
accepted and approved. To US Il appears 70
be the most admirable message since the time
OF jackson, as Andrew johnson is the most
admirable President in that period. Indeed
he looms up so majestically above all our
late Presidents that we almost forget that we
have had any other in tho thirty years past.
Since Washington, we have had Jefferson
and Jackson, the founders Of administrative
policy that outlived their terms, and, in q
measure themselves; and 30 1t will be In his
case, now that Andrew johnson enters upon
new era and will establish Q policy that
will endure for this generation.
!, The message before us Is the corner stone
Of that policy. 1t contains tho fundamental
principles upon which the Government is
founded and the Union must endure II Is
worthy the head and heart Of the greatest
statesman, and proves that he has definite
and well defined ideas, democratic opinions
and conservative policy from which he will
not swerve. There is a manly frankness and
q conscious strength Of position running
through every line, and power Of intellect
in overy paragraph. 1t likewise indicates
cultivation, for 1t is well-written produc-
tion, and, that being somewhat rare Of late,
Is refreshing 1t is cause enough for thanks
giving to-day that we have such document
to read, and have such q man as Andrew
johnson at the White House In Washington.
The indianapolis Gasette says: There is
one thing, however, which we like above
all else, and that is the manifest disposition
to let Congress take the lead as much as pos
sible, and to cooperate with 1t, in the mat
ter Of reconstruction. Mr.. johnson is evi.
IDENTIFY determined to do right, in all things,
SO far at least as he is able to see what Is
right. We think him mistaken, of course,
in his theory Of the status Of the rebel States.
But then it matters little, perhaps, Us to the
theory, so long as the practical part is done
right.

the correspondence and q history Of the ac-
Ubetween BLIsI.z X. KArR and MARaARBTrA Fox,
with fac SMILES Of letters, and her portrait.
New York, CApLxror, Publisher, 1855.
This Ia 4 neat little volume Of 2ss pages, with
a nne steel engraving Of the spiritual face Of
hARsARRrrA Fox KANE. II is allowable romance
In real life. DR.. KANE died, leaving behind him
something besides his valuable book to attract
public attention. He had secretly effected, II
appears, what his rather haughty family In
Philsdelphia considered . mesdilidnce with q
Miss Fox, Of whom be was enamored, and be-
tween this lady, a. his widow, aud DR.. KAsB's
mother and brother, little but litigation and bad
feeling has subsisted since the great explorer q
decease. Il seems that he was for several years
engaged to Miss MARaARErrA Fox, one Of the
young ladies Of spirit-rappins celebrity, with
whom he fell in love while she was exhibiting
ss medium in Philadslphis, she being thsn
only hfteen years old. with the consent Of her
mother DR.. KAHx removed her from all associa-
tion with spiritualists, and placed her in a pri-
vsts school near Philadelphia, to remain
during his absence In the Arctic regions.
On his return In 1855, they were to have been
married but the opposition Of DR.. RASE' family
was such that Miss Fox released him from his
engagement. He loved her, however, to well too
live without her; aud in April, 1855, the engage
ment was renewed, with the understanding that
II should be kept secret till the publication Of DR..
RANE's great work should realize an independ- =
ehee for him. In October, 1856, his physician
having ordered Dr. KANE to England, he was
secretly married 10 Miss Fox, and made his will,
leaving Ave thousand dollars to her In q private
trust to his brother. Boy the book and read the
rest.
