A Decision About Ibe Bsr-uiDg OF Z 1ium.
bfA,
WAsH1NGToN, Oct lS,-A special 10 the
New York Times says, the controversy
about the burning of Colombia, S. c., has
received quasi formal discrimination, by
the Britsh-American naked Commission.
The controversy grew ont of claims for
cotton destroyed iuthe burning of Column
bia, which claims Were based upon the as
sumption, that the city was burned by the
Federal soldiers, acting under the author
ity OF the Federal commanders. The vast
mass of testimony taken on that subject
was before the Commissioners, az i after
givingi careful attention, every one of
those claims were disallowed.

THE OUTLOOK IN THE EAST.
Conflicting Opinions ~ 10 the Future Tx.
pressed.
The Evening Post, of the 10th, says:

The Euening Post, of the 10th, says:
Some merchants yesterday prophesied a
stoppage in the export trade and "blocko
at the West. Many large dealers to-day
said that the outlook for the trade is ex-
ceedingly promising.
One of the most extensive grain dealers
in this country said to-day that export
er5 were taking every bushel of grain they
could obtain. His house alone is now re
ceiving 100000 bushels of wheat each day,
all of which is Immediately sent abroad.
This gentleman also thinks that the Pro
duce Exchange Is now virtually outside
Wall street influences, and that any diff
culties in the money market occasioned by
stock spectators will not materially affect
dealers in produce. The people of Europe,
he said, want bread, and they will get it, If
they are compelled to send gold here for it.
He. concluded by saying that the prospect
for continued brisk trade was very good.
The Associated Press report of the 10th,
says:
I'm explanation of the sudden rise in
Vanderbilt stocks O number of rumors are
afloat. Among them IL the alleged sale of
81 200, 900 of Vanderbilt speciaties to Ger
man bankers, the proceeds of which are to
be used by the Commodore in promoting
a vigorous bull campaign. II is said the
Commodore has bought largely to-day.
The Post says the day has been one of uu-
healthy buoyaney at the Stock Exchange,
and considers the development of bull
speculation at present AS unfortunate.
Some prominent brokers believe the pres
ent strength only the prelude to another
break.
The Washington special of the Louis
vile Courier-JoWndl, on the 10Th, says:
Business men in Washington say that
the financial situation is in no wise inn
proving, and that money 10 getting tighter
every day. A wealthy financier of New
York, now here, predicted to-day that in
the course of q week there would be q
number of failures, and such crash as
has not been known heretofore in Amer
lea. He said that there was a continued
depression, and that matters had been
growing worse ever since the panic began.
1t was now affecting the mercantile class
seriously. One would fail, and the result
would be that Europe would get the cotton
crop for half of what it cost to raise it.

Fred Douglas writes of his recent trip to
Tennessee: 'On the train from Louisville TO

the respect and attention shown to other
passengers, and it came little hand to be
Inundated in the presence of our fellow
passengers by this ingidious and offensive
order so boisterousIy given as to arrest the
attention of all in the ear, aud for n mo-
ment L was a little disconnected and hardly
knew what course to pursue-Whether to

not-whether to go out or wait and be re-,
