NIGHT DISPATCHES,

Reported Important Consultation ~
Warrington between the President,
Judge Chase, and others, relative "a
q General Amnesty.
WASHINGTON, November 16.-The fol.
lowing was telegraphed to the New York
Times by the special correspondent from
this city Chief Justice Chase called al
the White House this evening, and wa.
closeted with the President for about ar
hour. Before his departure, Mr.. Seward
Governor Randall, Mr.. McCulloch, and Mr.
Browning arrived, and remained in consul
tation with the President until 10 o'clock
It is believed that this meeting was for con
~sultation upon a most important subject
based upon an effort now making by lead
ing men of all parties to induce the Presi'
dent, in consideration of a general amnesty
to induce the people of the South to &C
cept universal suffrage, with a qualification
either of property or intelligence. Promi'
nent southern men are cooperating with
the Republicans and Democrats in thi:
effort.

GoING FROM Enthusiastically morning
a party of $50 emigrants from North Caro-
lima passed through this city en- route for
Indiana, in which State they intend to set
tie. The throng was composed Of men,
women, and children, and their appearance
indicated that they had endured great pri-
vations. Most Of the men were clad in
remnants of the Confederate uniform,
while the females were but thinly and poor
" clad. Among them was a number of
negroes, going with those amongst whom
they had always lived. Many of the emf
grants were before the war in comfortable
circumstances, but they lost all, and now
seek a home among strangers. On reach
ing the Calvert station, the whole company
was abundantly supplied with food, and the
females received presents of clothing
enough to make them comfortable. AS
they passed through the streets, many a
hand found its way into the pocket Of its
possession, and many q dollar was distri-
buted to alleviate their distress. On that, as
on occasions of necessity, the ladies of Balti-
more were prompt to be foremost in the
work of charity, and the destitute thereof
expressed their appreciation in looks OF
thankfulness. 1t was a sorrowful process
sion, and calculated to give a proper idea
of the desolation caused by the late war;

New ORLRANs, November l6.-The
Supreme Court Of Mississippi has decided
that the State has never lost lis ~ofganiza-

or wal, but that 1t was In ell respects not
only Q de Jdc&o but a de jure State, and
that the functions Of the government were

Judge J. Shsllyerger, Of Mississippi, has
also decided that sales and ~executory con-
tracts made before the surrender, and
founded upon Confederate treasury notes
as a consideration, were valid, and can be

FRANCE AND THE PoPE.-The Pope has
been informed by the Emperor Napoleon
that France will uphold his temporal power
against ali corners, and re0ccupy Rome in
his name in case of rebellion or invasion.
The bearer of this very important message
was Cardinal Reisach, who lately passed a
few weeks in France, and was commissioned
by the Emperor Napoleon to acquaint the
Holy Father with his resolve. The Spanish
men-of-war are still at anchor off Civita
Vecchia; but not content with placing q
number of men and guns at the disposal of
the Pope, Queen Isabel has written to
tell His Holiness that nothing would give
her greater pleasure than to be allowed to
cede him one of her W provinces should
her troops fail in maintaining his regal pre-
r~ogatiye at Rome. Whose offer the Pope,
who finds himself suddenly surrounded by
friends, will eventually accept, cannot be
foreseen. Probably he will be guided by
circumstances rather than premature re-
solves.-Berlin October 2s) Correspondence

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

RICHMOND, November Is, 1866.
There has been an, effort among money
lenders in New York to bull the market.
Interest was raised for o day or two; but
the demand fell off 50 that the rate de-
clined to 4@5 per cent, and a further de-
cline was anticipated. Money, it was be-
lieved, would be dull and very little in re-
quest until the crop demand of next year.
simultaneously with the decline in into
rest, the bears have effected reduction in
stocks as we'll as gold, and have now quite
the advantage. United States public
funds, however, held their own, remaining
very steady in the midst Of the general de-
cline.
THE FOREIGN MARKETS.
The accounts by the Persia represent
that the short crop Of wheat in France is
making a considerable demand for gold on
the bank in Paris for the importation Of
supplies from the north of Europe. Tho
English crop is also below the average, and
there is a strong demand for Indian corn at
Liverpool at advancing figures, and a stiff
market for wheat and -four. The cotton
market is quoted steadier by the steamer
than 1t has since been quoted by the At
lantic cable. The market for money in
London was cheap, and the supply easy at
4 per cent. q year and . fraction under.
The strength of the bank continued to in
| crease.

A SoH OF AN AFRICAN CHIEF IN New
YoRK.-A few score of colored people as
sembled last evening in the large hall OF
the Cooper Institute for the purpose OF
hearing a lecture from the son of an Afri-
can chief, on "The Destiny of the Sons of
Ham," The speaker did not belle his no
BILE descent his hue was black as mid
night, and his attire-consisting of a pair
of pants twelve inches too long, a vest so
short that it disclosed q considerable por-
ton of his soiled shirt, and indescribable
coat and boots-betokened a somewhat i'm
perfect acquaintance with civilized Co.'S
tune. The lecture, though rather short,
was extremely dull, and yet more obscure.
The conclusions at which the sable orator
finally arrived seemed to be that the me-
groes are the descendants of the lost ten
tribes of Israel, and that from among the
colored population of the United States q
prince will be shortly produced who shall
WELD the sceptre of universal empire. The
lecturer also said he contended that the
descendants of Canaan were white, and it
was q mistake to suppose that any "cuss"
rested on the colored people.-Herad, 18th

Missouri, it is now pretty clear, was
carried by the Radicals, in part, by the
grossest frauds. At least three thousand
Conservatives, we are informed, were de.
priyed of their votes. Cheating in one
form or another was the order of the day,
and the cheating succeeded. Things can
not always 60 on in this way, however
The Radicals in Missouri will be brought
ND with a round turn one of these days
Just as they were in Maryland last week
Before they die, even they will be con.
strained to confess that, after all, honesty
is the best policy.-NeD York Express.

very valuable discovery on his farm, some
fourteen miles east of this place. 1t is q
mine of the yello,o oride Of zinc. Mr.. Ora
ham has been informed by a northern
geologist that this mine of his contains
more zinc ore than car be found in every
northern State combined in other words,
that the supply seems inexhaustible. Mr..
G. informs US that over one hundred tons
of this ore can be picked up on the surface
of the soil. Northern capitalists might
find it greatly to their interest to pay a

The WHEAT CRoP.-We are gratitied to
hear from our country friends that the
growing wheat in this section has never be-
fore presented a more promising appear
ance at this season of. the year. That
which was seeded early looks especially
flourishing, and in many places has already
covered the ground with its branches.
The season thus far has been very favora-
BILE to the growth of this grain. The guam
tity sown, however, was comparatively
small, owing to the scarcity and high price
of seed,-LuchJurg NeuS.

BEAUREGARD on NEEpLE-GUNs.-ltis said
that when recently in Europe, Beauregard
mad an interview with Louis Napoleon,
who asked his opinion Of the Prussian
n~eedle-gun. Beauregard told him that
the needle-guns were q humbug. "Why,"
said he, tone of the Confederate armies
fought against q much more ehectiVe
weapon than that. The Federai armies
have the best guns known. The needle,
gun has q range Of only four hundred
yards. The Prussian columns could nave
been moved down at q much longer range"
Tho General, as it Is reported, went on 70
show that the Austrians failed, not on &C.
count Of the superiority of Prussian arms,
but Of the ~inferiority Of their generals.

MORE METEoRs.-We learn from the
Farmville Journal that meteoric showers,
commencing at 2 o'clock Tuesday after.
noon, and continuing for upwards of an
hour, were observed by hundreds OF per.
sons of that town. The meteors, in great
~profusion, were visible due south, and Q
little west of south, passing from the sight
towards the south and east. Many of them
presented a rotund appearance, which wa
retained until lost to the eye /; while Others
were drawn out to a considerable length,
and apparently not more than an inch OF
two broad, and all of them presenting
bright, silvery appearance.
