The Times Washington special

The Times Washington special
says:
There will evidently be wide diff
ference In the cost of executing the
reconstruction act in the several dis
tricts, while General Sickels says the
appropriation of half a million is
barely sufficient for his own command.
General Sheridan expects to COM
plete the whole in his district for one
half that amount. and have it done
sooner than any one else
The Cashier of the First National
Bank, of Vicksburg, telegraphs to the
Treasury Department that all reports
of trouble to that bank are false. 1t
has not even been embarrassed, and
the only foundation that the reports
of failure could have had, was the de
lay of certain remittances In reaching
New York.
The sentiment of most of the dozen
of Congressman now here regarding
the session is, that it will and ought
to take a short one, say two or three
weeks, with the provision for con-
tingent meeting in October. Cover
nor, Boutwell, who leads the impeach-
ment wing of the Judiciary Commit
tee, is of the opinion that the session
will be short, and that the members
generally will be disinclined to bring
the impeachment reports before the
House for discussion at the session,
but that as several weeks will un-
doubtedly be required to exhaust the
discussion Of this subject, an early
meeting in the Fall will be both de-
sirable and necessary.

Don't be SO damned inquisitive." /"
That afternoon Surratt and | took
walk, and at the corner of
Eleventh and Z Streets met
Miss Ann Wood; we then went
to the Herndon House; we went in,
and John Surratt asked for Mrs
Murray; said he wanted to speak to
her privately; Surratt asked if a room
had not been engaged by Miss Wood
for a man who was expected next
Monday, and who was delicate and
wanted his meals sent to his room;
Mrs. Murray recollected that the
room was engaged; the mans name
was not mentioned; think Snrratt

that the sick man was to come from

Military Salute-The President
Speaks.

New HAVEN, June 27.-The Pres
He was received at the depot here
him to the City Hall, where he was
received by a military salute. Bells
were rang and flags displayed. Gov
ernor English introduced the Presi-
dent to the Mayor of the city, who
extended him a welcome. The Pres
ident returned thanks for this mani
festation of respect, not only to him
as citizen, but to the Chief Magis-
trate of the country. Mr. johnson
said: 4 have tried to be President
of the whole United States-not of a
part. There are two kinds of cour-
age: one, physical which enables
man to meet the nemy
on the battle field, and the other
moral, which gives a man strength to
stand in the councils of the nation
and face those who may endeavor to
overthrow our liberties. In the
midst of all this, | had but one anchor,
from which l never allowed myself to
be cut loose. A conscientious con-
viction was my courage, the public
good my aim, and the Constitution
my guide.
In further reply, he said the storm
had passed, and the skies were be-
coming brighter; then why could
we not all unite in one com
mon effort to restore peace and
concord to the country. The Presi-
dent was frequently applauded, and
was given three cheers at the close.
Secretary Seward was also intro
duced and made few remarks of a
complimentary nature He said, this
is what have observed in Connecti-
cut: its people have a wonderful
faculty not only for teaching, but
also for making great many
things IF it is peace, they make
prophets, and if war, making war-like
implements, and. am happy to say see
the diffusion of knowledge in your
State keeps pace with improvements
of skill in labor. Postmaster General
Randall also responded to the call.

NEW YORK. June 27.-The Her
add New Orleans special says a
a sensation was created in New Or
leans business circles, yesterday, on
the announcement by Mayor Heath,
in his message to the City Council, of
the discovery of an alleged fraudulent
over issue of nearly 100000 of city
notes by the City Treasurer. In his
message to the Mayor says the city
can not be made liable in law for the
redemption of the over issue, and
that the city officers should be in
structed not to receive any of it. City
scrip has deprecated % per cent, and
merchants utterly refuse to receive it
In business transactions.

The Herald's New Orleans special
says:
Governor Wells, having waited a
sufficient time for the President to
decide on his removal, and the latter
not having acted in the matter, has
determined upon issuinga proclama-
ton, declaring himself Governor, and
Flanders an usurper, declaring null
and void his subsequent and future
acts, and directing the sheriffs and
other civil officers not to obey his or
ders. This he believes to be the law
under the Attorney Generals opin-
ion. This will compel the President
to act He takes this course by the
advice of several lawyers here. His
proclamation will be issued in a day
or two, unless the President inter
feres.
By adyices from the City Of aIex-
leo to che I'd inst, we learn that a
grand review of General Diaz' army,
numbering 10000 troops, from Quer-
etaro, which arrived on the 20th ult.,
had taken place. Diaz writes to
Juarez that he will occupy the city
within one week. but did not think
it advisable to precipitate matters, as
its ultimate fall was certain.
