Strange Report about Queen Victoria.

A Paris letter to the Cincinnati CONNER
rial contains the following Il had nearly
written royal scandal-for, to tell the plain
truth, the talk that now floats through pri-
vate society in London is little else | am
panied to say that this gossip involves no
less parsonage than Queen Victoria. 1t
has for long time been on peoples tongues,
but it has at last appeared in the newspapers
1t is said that the Queen has taken pro-
digious liking for a very good looking, but
'ignoble' Scotchman named Brown, who was
formerly sort Of outdoor body servant to
Prince Albert, and indeed bears strong re-
semblance to the Prince She so dotes upon
him that she keeps him constantly near her
person, at all her palaces and at all her jour-
neys to and from them She consults her
pet on all subjects, and takes his advice so
absolutely that the rest Of the Royal House
hold have become very jealous of him. The
last story is that she is going to Knight him.
Marry him she cannot, for the law of the
realm forbids her to marry one Of her own
subjects. It is very disagreeable, nay, it is
worse than disagrceable, to mention these
things Of one who, as wife and mother and
Queen has so high place in the reverence
of the world I have refrained from speak
ing of these stories while they were merely
talked Of in private, but now they have be-
come so notorious, and are so positively men
toned in the English papers, that | can no
longer regard them as empty tales.

Of the u. S. Government, those radical gem
tlemen of the North, who have been unable
to see anything good in Southern protesta-
tons, Will, if possible to do SO, be greatly
enlightened in regard to the true feelings
and intents of our people. This much of
good we expect from this order, but to guard
against one-sided reports of prejudiced Off
GERS Or agents, who may be dotted here and
there in our midst, we suggest to our breth-
rem Of the press to make full reports Of each
and every case tried, in which colored per-
son is concerned, as principal or witness,
even to the minutest particular, and thus
place it, as far as may be, beyond the power
of malicious or evil-designed persons to do
us harm, by inaccurate or prejudiced reports.

We learn from the Lynchburg Republi-
can, that company, with abundant capital,
is ready to undertake the completion and
equipment of the Covington and Ohio Rail
road, with all the conditions imposed by the
Legislative act creating the charter. From
this statement, the only delay in the COM
mencement of this work, so important to the
interest of Virginia, will be the time neces-
sarily consumed, by the Commissioners Of
the States of Virginia and West Virginia in
arranging the manner in which it is to be
built and equipped. A meeting Of the Com
mlsSloIIers Is calloa w Lvl1 IN Wa slng-
ton, on the 2Sth inst, and shortly thereafter
we hope that the road will be commenced -
With this road completed, the canal pushed
on to it's destined terminus, the Danville and
Lynchburg and the Valley railroads accom-
plishcd facts, Virginia will have made for
ward movement, which an age has found her
discussing, quibbling, and hestating about,
and failing to do. She will then have the quick
est line of transit from the great West to the
Atlantic, intcrsected here and there by impor-
tant feeders, from which, the advantage to
Virginia and her people no one, at the pres
ent day, can calculate. Hurry up these
works and let Virginia reap the advantages
~, cI,a H.
tain to accrue to her.

By reference to another column, the Cir

By reference to another column, the Cir
cular just issued by Col. Brown, Assistant
Commissioner of Refugees, Freedmen, &C.,
for Virginia, approved by Gen. Terry, will
be found. By this order the officers and
agents Of the Bureau, are prohibited from
trying any criminal case, in which colored
person is a party, except such cases as have
been commenced prior to the issuing of this
order. The civil tribunals will hereafter, as
in days gone by, take cognizance Of and try
such cases according to the laws made and
provided. 1t is also made the duty of AS
sistant superintendent of the Bureau to be
present at such trials, but not to act as At
toTneys, Oh argue the case with court Or mag
istrate, Or interfere with the proceedings, but
they shall report every case where injustice
has been done to colored persons, OR justice
refused to be done, by neglect or otherwise
on the part Of officers Of the law, and on the
last day Of each month make detailed re-
port of such cases, as to whether the pro-
ceedings have been conducted with fairness
and impartiality and in accordance with the
laws enacted, applicable to such cases.
While we unhesitatingly disapprove of
censorship over our Civil Tribunals, and pro.
nounce as utterly wrong that justice shall
be dispensed with the Sword suspended over
the heads of the officers of the law and in
hands of some reckless individual, more anx-
ioua, perhaps, to find fault than to make an
unprecedented report, yet, we are satisfied,
that there will be no testimony On record, if
fairly reported, which will 81 the lie more
directly to the charges made against US of
prejudice against class of people, whom We
have reared and nurtured among "a and for
whose welfare our cares and desires baye
been persistent. Laying aside then the
objections we have stated above, we are not
ayerse to seeing q mere reporter for the Bu-
reau IN our courts, for we are satisfied that
sense Of justice, and desire to act in exact
accordance with law, will characterize their
proceedings in days to come as has ever been
the case in the past, whether it be 8 Rebel

Important Eecisi0n

Legal Tender Equal to Gold A very
important decision has just been made in the
Superior Court Of New York city, upon the
legal tender question. On January 20,
1863, ship was chartered the party stating
1.-THE freight to be paid on unloading ana
right Of delivery Of the cargo as follows,
viz: if discharged in the United States Of
America, in silver and gold dollars, or by
approved bills on London; if at point in the
United Kingdom, as customary" The ship
arrived in New York. and the owners were
rendered payment Of the freight, So $50,
in legal tender notes. These were refused,
and payment in gold or silver dollars de-
manded. and the case being sent to referee,
he decided that gold or silver must be paid.
From this decision an. appeal was taken to
the Superior Court, and in an elaborate op;n-
ion, that Court decided that the contract was
made year after the passage Of the law by
Congress, making Treasury notes legal
tender in payments Of debts, and the con-
tracing parties had q full knowledge Of the
law; that this was deot; that "a paper dol
lar having been made equal to a gold dollar,
it must be accepted as such in satisfaction Of
any contract for the payment Of money, and
no form OF force Of words can be used by
contracting porties to give gold COLLAR a le
gal value as money above a paper. dollar"
The conclusion Of the Court was that the
charter party could be satisfied by a payment
in legal tender notes instead of gold or silver
dollars. The New York Superior Court is
Court of jurisdiction somewhat similar to
our District Court and its decision may be
reviewed by higher State Courts. AS the chief
Court in the principal mercantile city of the
United States, however, its opinions and
decisions are entitled to very great weight.

PAPER SocKs-A late number Of the
Scientific Americcn alludes to a new article
Of manufacture. invented by a citizen of
New York, thus: cit is well known that
paper is one of the best materials for keeping
in or causing the body to retain its natural
heat; in other words, it prevents cold air
from reaching such parts Of the body as may
be enveloped in it. The inventor designs
his paper socks particularly for use under or
over an ordinary pair Of socks or stockings,
to be worn in cold weather; but it IS obvious
that they can be made Of a kind of paper
which would last as long as an ordinary pair
would keep clean, and they can be made so
cheapiy that their cost Will not equal the
price Of washing. These socks are intended
to bear the same relation to knitted or woven
socks or stockings that paper collars do to
linen Or muslin collars"

To GIVE Onions AN EARLY START.--Mr.
IT. Benjamin, Of Ontario county, gives the
following method Of preparing onion seed for
planting:
:" About the first of April, put my. seed
into bloodwarm water, set it where it will not
freeze, and let it remain from twelve to ff-
teen days. am careful to have the water
always cover all the seed. In two or three
days one can tell if the seed be good by the
strong onion smell it will emit in case it is all
right I drain the water off from the seed,
and stir amongst it some plaster, keeping it,
however, little moist and warm. At the
end of three days the seed will have thrown
out sprouts half an inch long. | then plant
it, covering about half an inch deep with
earth, and in six days one can zee the rowe.
