In yesterdays Morning Jownal an arti-
Gle headed "SwINDLERs ARRESTED HEAVY
OPERAToRs BAGGED," an undue promin-
ence is given to a certain Capt McCabe,
who claims to be the Chief of Police OF this
city, and states that he arrested two most
notorious swindlers, named Welton and
Bishop. "dealers in bullion, In shape Of
slugs Of bogus California gold" AS there
has been a good deal said about the arrest
and the swindlers, we propose to give
plain statement of facts connectedwiththisl
transaction, as we learn them from relia-
BILE sources, and then the public can judge
how much credit is due to the aforesaid
Capt McCabe for the working up" OF
this case, as it is termed In police parlance
Some two or three months since. an Ell
derly gentleman with bald head, covered
with a slouched hat, with old clothes upon
his back, and worn utshoes on his feet, ap-l
peared at one ofour prominent Banking es-
tablishments, and stated that he had jhstre
turned from California, and had In his pos
session some gold nuggets which he wished
to dispose Of The nuggets were presented,
and after going through the usual tests,
were pronounced hunk-a-do-ri, and were
purchased by the banker. The banker
thinking he had made a good thing, immedl-
ately sent them to New York to compete
with the Bulls and Bears but the return
showed that instead of being eighteen
carats fine, they were only ninS, losing In
the operation some $4O0. 1t0d io1' '''-
The banker kept this all to himself and
waited the "logic of events" and finally
on certain night when the Opera House
was in full blast, Mr. Banker observed his
man costly seated in the parquette, enjoy
ing himself like an honest man, and having
an eye on business, he informed policeman
Newman to keep an eye on the Nugget
man. Presently, the Nugget man had oc-
casion to 20 down for drink, orsomething
else, and Mark Newman followed him, and
close on his heels was the banker. Mark
nabbed him and escorted him to the bank
er's office, where a settlement was made,
after mutual rccognition-the banker be-
ing made at least lch0le, In the transactions,
and Mr.. Nugget-man was suffered to go on
his way rejoicing. ui uT sdl % aL roI
The banker having been made whole,
thought perhaps, for the good Of the pub
lie in general, that an eye had better be
kept on Mr.. Nugget-man, and he so in
formed Mr.. Mark Newman, and not Nc
Cabe, the pet Of the Journal, and Mr.. New
man (not McCabe,) planned the capture of
the two men named in the Journals report.
There is no doubt of there being a New
York manufacturing house, where these
nuggets or "bOgs slugs" are gotten up, and
there is no doubt but this detection is a
"big things" but to give the entire praise
to Barney McCabe, looks rather too much
like an attempt to gull the citizens of Co
lumbus, who know him WE'LL Ta
The prisoners are at present under the
charge of our excellent and efficient
Sheriff, Mr.. Domigan, and will remain there
until the extent'of their operations in bo-

letter, by way of New Orleans, dated Vera
Cruz, October Goth, 1866:
''Maximilian left the city of Mexico on
the 23d inst, resigning verbally in favor Of
Gen. Bazaine. Gen Bazaine endeavored tc
persuade him to delay his departure until
Gen. Castlenau's arrival two days later, but
he declined, and escorted by 500 Austrians,
proceeded to Orizava by cross roads to avoid
meeting Gen. Castlenau. He reached Ori-
Java yesterday, and is expected here tomor-
row.
The captain of the Austrian frigate Dam
doto states that as soon as Macmillan ar
rives he will at once leave for Europe.
It is said that Macmillan will publish to-
day manifesto at Orizava.
General Castlenau reached the city of Next

of government.

In late article the Washington RepuJl


can makes the following grave point:
The President is required to swear that
he will preserve, protect and defend the Con-
stitution of the United States to the best of
his ability, and among the duties specially
imposed on him is this he shall take care
that the laws be faithfully executed.
!" It is the Constitution which declares that
all Legislative power is vested in the Congress
of the United States; it is the Constitution
which declares how that Congress shall be or
ganized, and of what it shall consist, to wit
two Senators from each State. and at least
one Representative When for any cause
Congress denies to State this right Of rep
rcsentation, in the Senate and House, it VIC
lates the Constitution, which is the supreme
law of the land. Whose duty is it to see
that the lawsar faithfully executed Is this
duty less imperative because the t,unsyresso,
IS Congress instead ofhc State Of South Car
oZina?"
Armed ships and armed men were called
out against the g State Of South Carolina /"
If the duty is not g less imperative" it is
certainly less attended to, when Congress is
g the trangrcssor." -Enquiyer

from the Hamilton &c. W. Spectator, Oct. 10.
The late rapid decline in United States Sc
curities in England has excited considerable
surprise. When we read the incendiary
speeches of the Radical leaders, however
their open threats of civil war and fixed de-
termination to regard the southern States as
conquered provinces, and not as portion Of
a restored Union, we can scarcely wonder al
this decline. Until the difficulty at present
existing between the President and the Con
gress is settled confidence cannot be expect
ed to revive. Capitalists will not care to
invest their money in country so torn by
political differences and unsettled by polii-
cal uneasiness. We learn that investments
in United States securities have almost ceased
not only in London, but also in Frankfort,
the quotations being almost entirely nominal
At the same time all other securities main
tain their prices, Austrian included, which
are deemed more worthy of confidence than
those Of the American Republic The con-
sequence Of the decline in American securities
in Europe viii in due course of time, be a
corresponding depression in the States, coup
led with a depreciation in the currency, and
consequent rise in the price of gold And
all this is the result Of the clustering yapor-
ing Of the Radical party, their constantly re-
iterated threats Of war with Great Britain,
and their evident determination to prevent
any reconciliation Of the adverse parties il
the States sa4f@

Mr.. DAVIS PAROLE EXTENDED. Fortress
1Nonroe, Nov. 3,-The parole granted to Mr..
Davis some months ago, giving him the priyi-
lege Of the grounds during tie day, has been
extended, through executive clcmency, in re-
moving all surveillance over him, and the
guard from his rooms in Carroll Hall at
night. Instructions to this effect were sent
from Washington to Gen. Burton, co,nman-
dant ofthe post, diyesting his Imprisonment
Of anything like severity, and paving the
way, it is generally presumed, for his final
parole and release. All the guards over him,
both by day and night, have been removed
1t is said that lie has expressed great grati-
cation at the action Of the government. and
already contemplates vacating Carroll Hall
and taking up his residence with Mrs. Davis
in the easements assigned him shortly after
his arrival

From dispatch from Fortress Monroe

From dispatch from Fortress Monroe,
published in another column, it will be seen
that in addition to the privilege of the
grounds during the day, accorded to Jeffer-
son Davis, some months since, by Executive
clemency he has been relieved of all surveil-
ance, by the removal Of all guards over him
both by day and night
This is matter Of praise to the authori-
ties, although very long delayed, and we
hope may be, as stated in the dispatch, but
paving the way for his final parole and re-
lease. He has been too long held to await a
trial, put off from time to time on the merest
bubble, and it is an act of duty on the part
of our Government to release him. May the
result prove that this is the present inten-
ton.

at the same time to rotate on their axes. ~
This discovery was accompanied by several
others Of like magnitude, all proving the

what Sort or stun ssRebels. are made 81

The New York Day Book talks to the
Northern Radicals in the right strain. as will
be perceived by its article below. It does
not mince matters with those fellows,sbut
fings hot-shot into them as often as they
present their rotten broadsde to him : h
The lunatics and besotted tools, who call
Jefferson Davis and others in the South reb-
els, and fancy that they are going to render
this term Infamous by continual iteration
and reiteration, will be regarded by the next
generation as even greater fools than knaves,
though it is difficult to suppose them eclipsed
IN the latter respect. Rebels, forsooth 1t
1t is the noblest word in our language-in
our present as well well as in our past histo-
ry-and from the nature of things, always
will be, however, fools and knaves, and the
tools and toadies. Of despotism may strive to
dishonor it. Who are the rebels in English
history? Why, the Hampdens, Cromwells,
Russells and Sidneys, ETC., many Of whom
died on the scaffold, and at this moment all
intelligent men know that whatever there is
of good in the English system is the result Of
the result of the sacrifices and efforts Of those
illustrious rebels. So in Scotland and Ire
land-the Bruces, and Wallaces, and En-
NETS, and Fitzgeralds, are the heroes Of his
tory-indeed, we only state simple histori-
cal truth that no loyal man is remembered
in history, save for his crimes and for the
purpose of avoidance, as Alva, Jefereys,
and similar loyalists Why even our most
clamorous loyalists Of this country, Ben.
Butler or Joe Holt, would never presume to
place the loyal Arnold in the same category
with the rebel Washington, or Butler and
his loyal rangers above the rebel Schuyler
and his rebel followers indeed, as observed,
from the nature Of things, rebels are the
very salt of the earth, and whatever may be
the clamor Of the loyal for moment, rebels
are illustrious for all time. But it will be
said that rebels to Republican government
are altogether different from rebels to Euro
pean government. Is this so? No-names
are nothing, if the things they represent are
changed. The people can't rebel against
what was and what purports to be their gov
eminent, why the thing is changed of
course. Thus, if Abraham Lincoln would
agree to administer the true government Of
the States, Jefferson Davis and others would
not have been rebels, nor would Washing ton
and Adams, if George III had done So
This pregnant truth this generation may not
receive, perhaps, but we believe they will
at all events, whatever may be the seeming
virtue Of to day, Jefferson Davis and his
brother rebels are as certain of posterity as
Washington and all the other rebels Of his
