CORRESPONDENTS.

We have special correspondents moving
with each division of the opposing forces of
France and Prussia, and news agencies in the
principal capitals--London, Paris, Berlin. Ma
drid, Vienna and Florence--so that nothing
OF an important news character escapes our
vigilant Representations
Our news agencies in the principal cities Of
Europe, and our system of travelling corre-
spondents, have been long established, fact
the readers of the HERALD have no doubt long
from all parts of the Eastern Hemisphere for
years past have fully proven.
We do not pretend that our comments upon
the war, or that our opinions upon the proba-
BILE success of either belligerent in contem-
plated movements come by the cable Our
only aim is to give to the public the fullest,
the most reliable, and the most authentic
record of facts as they occur in the grand
operations Of the contending armies.

THE Work OF TUE CENSUS goes bravely on.
For several States, our own included it is
already complete, and the returns will be
nearly all in by the 10th Of September, al
though few may scatter along until October
L. The number of farmers has very greatly
increased, especially in the South, not merely
beyond the proportion of 1860, but ahead of
sanguine estimates for the present year. This
is golden news-meaning abundance at home
and tribute abroad for the great republic.
There is, likewise, heavy increase ofmanufac-
lures, which are also marching Southwark and
Westward. The steam engine is the drum
that in this country beats time to the onward
march of wealth and civilization. Should all
the promises of the present census takers be
fulfilled we shall have the work quickly done,
since they have seven million five hundred thou
sand names already and are noting one million
per diem during the current week. When COM
plete it will be heavier shell to fling at the
citadels of the Old World monarchical systems
than any that the German siege ordnance are
now belching at the beleagured and crumbling
strongholds of the French empire.

TIE EUROPEAN WAR AND AMERICAN FL
NANoEs.-It will be remembered when the war
in Europe broke out and gold took an insane
jump to 1888, that the wisest of our domestic
financiers prophecied the war would be certain
To benefit this country and induce sharp de-
cline in gold. Since that time the price has
fallen to ll4s, although it has since reacted,
while the gold shipments have been bat a
little more than they would have been at this
time of the year, when the cotton export is
lightest, owing to the gap between the old and
new crops. Last week the shipment Of gold
was only q million Of dollars. But now the
London bankers are sending their gold here.
Yesterday one agency in this city sold two
hundred thousand pounds sterling, in order to
place the currency at intsraat in this oitv.

things, sent us last evening by the charming
ladies of St. Marks Fair. All, but what

pOrary: .s...,, .ss.t.-~. .-,. ...a} ~
"The Fair that sent us these good things
is. an extremely. bully Fair. The ladies
who manage it are just as sweet and US
pretty rs they can be. The, things they
sent us were like everything else they have
for salc--tirSt class. The object of their cf-
forts is noble and worthy: of encourage
ment. We advise everybody tq invest.
And, taking it all in all, we are forced TO
the conclusion that the Fair is 'tbig thing

we think It right in this case to take the
ablishment at Richmond Of the adherine
Government Of Virginia as the recognized
Government Of the whole State as the end
OF the war In this State. This event may
be said to have taken plncc when the eyecr-
tive department. Of that Government was
removed from Alexandria to Richmond, on
the 2Gth of May, 1865. The period, then,
to I've excluded inthe computation or interest
rs the, time from the 18th of April, 1861, to
the 2Gth of May, 1865. - III M
2. What credit, if any, is to be given to
Bigler for. money received by Waller from
the Confederate Governmentl -, -
The evidence shows thatthe snmof % 900
was thus received in October 1863 by way
OF compensation for Use made of the pro-
perty and of indemnity for waste committed
upon it. AT that time it appears that the
rate of Confederate notes for gold was thir-
teen for one. For this sum OF $1,000, re-
duced to! the specie equivalent, with inte-
restfon the sum thus ascertained, credit is
to,be given OIL the bond. i, ..s,.l !. 49,,
b 3. What credit, If any, should be given to
Blgler for damage sustained by reason OF
non-fulGllment on part oflW Waller Of his con-
trhct to release to purchasers3 lt is clear
enough upon the evidence that under the
original contract of purchase Bigier had a
right to sell portionsIof the estate, and to
baFc these portions released to the pur-
chaser OIL payment to Waller Of so much OF
the purchase money as would leave his Sc
curity unimpaired. And it is sufficiently
proved that some time after the purchase, in
1888 or 1864, Biglcr had some offers to buy
small parcels of the tract, and applied orally
to Waller for release I; and that Waller, for
some reason, refused. But it does not ap-
pear that Bigler at that time, OF at any time
afterwards, until this controversy afose, set
up any claimfo damages. On the contrary,
.Diglor continued to make payments on ae-
count of the purchase until May, 1850.
Under these circumstances it would be diff.
CRITIC sustain the claim for damages were
the proof Of the quantity of land sold, the
price offered, and the demand for release
under The contract much clearer and more
specific than it is. But on all these points
the evidence is vague and indefinite much
too vngnc audindefinite to form the basis OF
IL decree. Weare obliged, therefore, to deny
any credit on account OF damages. A de-
cree may be entered in conformity with
these principles. . ,s..,-... .....ia. ...r4U
