An Interesting Incident.

Quite an interesting incident took place at the
Catholic orphans fair room, on Main street,
Thursday night last. Mr. Jefferson Davis, ac-
compancd by Judge Ould visited the fair on
that night, and, whilst he was enjoying the deli
cacics at the supper table, the ladies and gentle
men present agreed to rattle off most beautiful
cigar stand with musical box attached, which
had been sent, with many other handsome ar
ticles, from Brussels, Belgium, the winner to
present it to him. The rattle occurred and the
prize was won by gentleman from Baltimore,
MIR NJ, who requested that Miss NJ. c. H., the
interesting young lady who was instrumental in
name of those who had contributed Miss H.,
approaching the Ex-President, said:
"Mr Davis-In the name and at the request
of the gentleman who won the prize, and of those
ladies and gentlemen who contributed, present
you this token of our respect for you, the Presi-
dent of the Confederate States. We only wish
we had something more worthy of your accep-
tance, but, after looking around the table, find
nothing more suitable, and though small the gift,
we hope you will accept it. We wish from our
hearts every blessing for yourself and family"
In reply, Mr. Davis said
Il thank you and the ladies and gentlemen for
your kindness, and will place this with the gold
headed cane presented to me by the Catholic
ladies of Norfolk, who held fair for a charita-
Bile purpose last spring. Your kindness will net
be forgotten. The Catholics have always been
my friends, and cannot forget the circumstance
that the Holy Father, the head of your Church,
was the first sovereign who sent me his blessing
in my misfortunes. May God bless you all.
After which, Mr. Davis departed, amidst the
adieus and blessings of those present.--h'ch-
naond Wing.

Washington Items.

The postponement of the trial of Mr. Davis
surprised no well-informed person here. 1t is
not for moment supposed that he will be tried
in March next.
The President is receiving his friends very
generally now when they call. He does not feel
at all alarmed at the status of affairs and will act
with great force when the proper moment arrives.
1t is generally understood that Commissioner
of Revenue, Rollins, vii soon resign.
The Reconstruction Committee has had a
meeting at Thad Stevens room. A majority
holds that further legislation is necessary before
reconstruction can be completed.
The Judges of the Supreme Court, led by
Chase visited the President on the I'd.
: 1t is safe to predict the early removal of Gen
eral Pope His arbitrary and Unnecessary Or
ders are too often multiplied to be tolerated
His recent order, that official advertisements
must only be inserted in Radical papers, is con-
sdered as carrying matters too far.

will soon be given TO all the military comman.

A New SYNAGoGUE.-A new Hebrew Syna-
gogue has just been erected in New York at
cost of $500, 900. The Post, of that city, says
it is larger than Trinity Church, and adds
This edifce is erected by sect known as the
Reformed Jews, who have departed from the an
cient faith in many ways, but more especially in
the manner of worship. In other synagogues
the main floor is open and unencumbered by
seats, reading desk occupying the centre of the
room. In this synagogue all is changed except
the ark. which rests in its usual place in the
transept. The Reformed Jews have choir like
that of the Episcopal Church, and the centre Of
the building is filled with pews and aisles. I'm
der the old dispensation men and women do net
sit together and men wear their hats during the
service and there is no organ nor choir of singers
In the Reformed synagogue the sexes occupy
seats together, as in Protestant churches. and
the service is read from desk or pulpit, while
the music is furnished by an organ and the
singers stationed in the gallery,

U. 8. Treasurers Report.

The report of the Secretary Of the Treasury
is a longer document than the Presidents Mes-
sage; and we can Only give brief synopsis ofthe
leading points He still adheres to the policy OF
contraction of the currency as the proper one to
be pursued, and thinks there is no reason why
the business of the country cannot be brought
to specie basis by July l., 1863. In order TO
bring this about he holds that three things are
Necessary; first, the funding or payment of the
balance of the interest bearing notes. and con-
inuance of the policy of contraction; second, the
ment of the public debt; and, third, the restora-
tion of the Southern States. He argues that the
question of specie payments underlies the great
questions OF the currency, taxation and recon-
struction, and he urges this point elaborately.
He is opposed to the project of abolishing the
National Bank note currency; urges greater sta
bility in our revenue laws; recommends revi-
sion of the tariff, which he says yields large
amount of revenue, yet fails to protect American
manufacturing interets; and calls attention to
the decline of the American shipping interest.
The Internal Revenue laws, he says would have
yielded more revenue than estimated if it had
not been for the whiskey frauds, and the faRure
of the revenue officers to collect the whiskey
tax, showing that both the officers and manufac-
turers of the article have become thoroughly de-
niorallZeo py the temptations 10 eVauc OF vioiate
the law. He urges economy in the public ex-
penditures, and recurs to the subject of keeping
faith in the payment of the bonds. On this lat
ter subject he quotes from speech made by Mr..
Stevens in the House while one of the Loan bills
was under consideration in which he twice re-
ferred to the bonds as being payable in gold.
On the question of reconstruction with the
business prosperity of the country. be refers to
the fact that last year. Notwithstanding the Grip
pied condition of the Southern States, those
States furnished three-fourths Of all the exports
sent abroad to keep up the balance of trade,
Respecting the matter of taxation of Government
bonds and the funding of our loans, he makes an
important recommendation in favor of CONSOLE
dated SIX per cent. loan, to run twenty years,
from which one-sixth of the interest shall be au-
nually withheld from the bondholders and paid
over to the individual States f. r.f
