Mr.. Stevens yesterday sought to offer resolution
reciting the fact that the President has not answered
the resolution of the House of March 8, inqurng as
to the number of pardons granted and the amount OF
forfeited property restored to Rebel owners and
requesting him TO communicate such information at
his earliest convenience it being needed for purposes
of legislation. Objection was made, but the reSo-
luton will doubtless be presented and passed at the
first opportunity.

Tho People of Missouri have chosen to cmbody in
their fundamental law a provision that men who
upheld the SHAREHOLDERS Rebellion shall not vote, nor
hold office, nor practice law oiciate as clergymen
You have perfect right to hold that they ought not
to have done so but that does not alter the fart Nor
does it justify you in trying to conceal the fact that
these mon are disfranchsed and senced for treason
Let that clearly appear. and you may abuse the
restriction TO your hearts content

Artists TO steinWay a sons.
NEW YORK, December, 1861.


The Pianofortes. Grand, Square and Up
Sons, have established for themselves so
world wide reputation that It Is hardly pos
sible for us to add anything to their lust fame.
Having thoroughly tested and tried these
Instruments personally for years, both in pub
lie and private, 1t becomes our pleasant duty
to express our candid opinion regarding tneIr
unquestioned superiority over any other
Piano known touS.
Among the chief points Of their uniform
excellence are: GFeGfeSt possible depth, rich
ness and uolItme Of tOHe, e0Inbined nth a rare
bTiIfd1icU cten7IeES and perfect epeIlneES
throughout TIE entire scale, and, Adore all, a
SttyTfsfn0 duration Of sOlEd, the pure and JIill-
die most detiedte0r oOtpeIJ lIl touch.
This pecultanty Is found exclusively in the
StelnWny Piano, and together with the
matches precision, elasticity and prompt
ness Of action always characteEizing these In
StrumentS, as well as their uneQuRled dura-
billy under the severeSt trials, Is truly sur
prising and claims at once the admiration of
SteinwRy Pianos in all respects Lhe best InSfIIi-

WASHINGTON, April 2s.-The Presi-
dent has officially proclaimed the con-
vention between the Empire of Japan
and Governments of the United States,
Great Britain, Franceand Holland, pro-
viding for the payment to these Gov
ernments of the sum of three millions
of dollars for indemnities and expenses.
This convention was made in view of
the hostile acts of Mort DaiZen, Prince
of Nugate and SwOo, which were as
summing such formidable proportions
as to make it difficult for the Tycoon
governments above named having
been obliged to send their com bined
forces to the Straits of Simenoscki in
order to destroy the batteries erected by
that diHmo for the destruction of for
eign vessels and the stoppage of ports,
and the Government OF the Tycoon, on
whom devOlved the duty of chastising
this rebellfOus prince, being held re-
sponsible for any damage resulting to
the interests of the treaty powers, as
we'll AS the expenses occaSioued by the
expedition. The governments of the
United States, Great Britain, France
and Holland declare in this convention
that inasmuch as the receipt of money
has never been the object of the said
powers but the establishment of better
relations with Japan, and desire to
place these on n more satisfactory and
mutually advantageous footing is still
the leading object in view, therefore,
if his Majesty, the Tycoon, wishes to
offer in lieu of the payment of the sum
claimed and as "a mutual compensa-
ton for the loss and injuries sustained
the opening of Simonosks or other port
in the inland sea it snail be ut the OPP
ton of said governments 20 accept the
same or insist on the payment of indem-
nifty in money under the conditions
above stipulated.

Foreign News.

NEW YORK, April 29.-The steamer
Hermann, from Hamburg via South
ampton 18th, arrived at quarantine at
IL o'clock last night. All well, but has
to fumigate.
from Australia.
Storing away. the new Atlantic cable
in the tanks on board the Great Eastern
commenced on the 18th. Laying the
cable commences in July.
The Times says the more the fran
chise bill is discussed, even by its best
friends, the more it loses of that body
and solidity and consistency it might
at first have credit for.
The Times city article says conf
dence is completely destroyed; the only
chance for turn in the markets would
be from the actual commencement of
war on the continent, and change at
once the current oGattention.
News from Germany is less threat
ening.
Vienna intelligence says the state of
affairs continue very serious. The mid
die States are preparinga declaration in
the federal district, refusing to take the
Prussian motion for reform of the con-
stitution into consideration before the
great German powers have demobo-
lied. Wurtenburg, Baden and Bava-
ria have forbidden the expectation of
horses.
The Independence Beige states con-
fidently that the pacific oVertures which
are being made will have the effect of
settling the question of ornaments. In
the event of war, volunteer corps will be
formed in Vienna, Gratz, Perth, Aus
tria, Bavaria and SaXony.
It is agreed to carry out the reform of
the Constitution.
Rumor of Besmock's resignation was
current at Hamburg, but not credited.
The Coburg Gazette states that AUS
tria energetically reIterates her previous
details of the Prussian assertions re-
speeding the Austrian ornaments, and
insists on demobolization of the Prus-
sian troops in order to conform to the
pacific declations of Prussia.
In Russia an attempt was made to
assassinate the Gar, but the bullet
missed its aim.
