Washington, March 26.-Early in tls
special session L petition was introduced
in the House for the relief Of St. Michael'~
Church, Charleston, s. -, praying fog
the remission of the duties upon the bel'>.
of the church, which were recently recast
in England and replaced in the tower OF
the editice. These bells have historic
interest. The chime was originally iu,.>
ported from England into the province OF
South Carolina in 1863. They were seix-
cd in the city of Charleston in 177o an:
sent to England, where they were bougIls
by an English merchant. In 1854, at the.
close OF the revolutionary war, the boil.
were returned to Charleston ard araii,
placed in the stceple of St. Michac1'.
where they remained undisturbel unit
1863, when the Federal forces began shcl-
ling the city. The church stceple bein.

were removed to Columbia for safety. l..
the fire of February, 1865, which devas-
tated large part Of Columbia, all the
bells were cracked by the heat, and wcr-
again sent to England to bc recast atth,
same foundry st which they wers origin

were brought back to this country. and
duties to the amount of Sl5SS IS were
paid under protest.

[Cincinnati Enquirer
New York. March 3l.-Thc TO lowing
letter from Canada was received to-day
by members of the firm of Thomas Rig
nov g. Co., who conduct in this city n
trade mainly in Canadian produce. The
writer is prominent member Of ,hc Ca

q position in the Dominion Cabinet.
Montreal, March 27. The Imperial
Government anticipates the Canadian
contingent to be furnished in case of war
with Russia-now almost deemed inevi-
table-will be fully 100000 men. The
Dominion, under pressure, could furnish
about half the number, as during the
continuance of tie four years of war be-
tween tho Northern and Southern States
there were d, 900 Canadians i'll the North
crn armies, and as times are exceedingly
hard here, there would be but little diff
Guilty in obtaining fully that number
here at only a small bounty. 1t is cur

THE ADvENTUREO OF OFAPICTURE. A
WHICH TRAVELLED FROM 4 PLANTER'$
HOUSE ON THE LAFOURCHE TO SAN
FRANCISCO.
(E. o. Picayunc.)

(N. o. Picayunc.)
Tho Governor has received from Mr..
A. w. Roysdon, native of this State, at
munication of an interesting character.
The writer states that there is in the
studio of Mr.. G. D. Robinson, in San
Francisco. a painting which is beloved
to have belonged to a planter living on
the Lafourche. 1t seems that during the
retreat Of Banks army, as planters
house on the Lafourche was being sacked
by the Federals an attack was made by
the Confederates. The picture was hur-
edly cut FROM the frame by tho spolia-
tors, and owing to the approach of the
enemy was left in a car OH the Opelousas
Railroad.
There it was found by the Federal
baggage master, and, to make Il long
story short, the picture was obtained by
Mr.. Robinson, after the war, in Ver-
mont.
IT is very much admired, and is consid-
cred genuine Winterhalter, supposed
to have been painted in England dur
ing the visit of the above named
artist to that country to do the por-
traits of the royal family in 1852.
The present possessor has had many Of
fers for tho purchase of the picture, bnt
he has refused to part with it, on the
ground that he holds it in trust until the
rightful owner shall come and claim it.

RESUMPTION.

The St. Louis Republican says upon
this subject:
Resumption by the government Ill cans
that the banks shall also pay coin to all
who demand it. Greenbacks will still
DO legal tender, for nobody, 10 matter
how we'll convinced of the illegality of
the legal-tentler act, will deny that for
the present, at least, resumption must be
based on the maintenance of that act.
Hence, banks and individuals will go on
paying all their obligations with legal
tender paper, which will be in effect
coin. The national banks will redeem
their notes theu, as now, in greenbacks,
| which will be in effect redolnpt ion in
coin, for it will simply be resumption
] with u coin certificate or coin check
on the United States Treasury, which
will be the common depository of the
coin reserve of the banks. The govern
ment notes, greenbacks, will hold the
same place that bank checks do, which
always pass as money, yet arc never
added to the number of circulating
notes of banks in calculating the
amount of its needed reserve. The gov
ernment will redeem in coin, and banks
and others will pay i'll coin, when de-
manded, by drawing a coin check on the
government; that is, by paying the
greenback coin certificate check. Hel &C
the banks would he able to take care of
themselves without any specie reserve,
and if the expectations of Secretary Sher-

selves accumulate over ono hundred mil
lion dollars in coin before January 1st,
they will be able not only to take care OF
themselves, but TO hclp tho government
