The jollitj 'of the Radicals last night over the election reminds ns somewhat of the extraordinary efforts of Ilok TaP-i.et, to preserve his good nature under disconraging circumstances. ; Thanks to the negrtr vote, they have carried the State by about the same majority, as last year.' Thanks to the 1 negro vote, they have elected Pekat, Bingham, Smith, and three or four other Congressmen ; bnt the negro vote did not save them their great leader, SCHKSCK, or keep Frank McKinkey oat of Congress.

Politically; Ohio is itaOi k bnt this result we accept as a Democratic reverse. , , Speeches were made in the State Hoose yard last evening by a number of white Republicans, but the genuine b"na Jtfte black Radicals, whose' votes saved the party, from . a-. (Usa&troa defeat., ittj the State, and helped to elect a number of Congressmen, were not so prominent as they were before election. They got the cold shoulder decidedly. Were not invited t participate; 'J Oo away, black man, don't come nigh me," was the sentiment of the chaps who held the- reins. This was' discouraging to the large, attendance of colored feminines present, attracted by the eloquence of the jollifiers. It was the most diabolical instance of black ingratitude we have ever known. A regular kicking away of the ladder by which Pebrt and others of the speakers mounted.

THE NEWS. , There was a very heavy frost on Wednesday night in Wisconsin and Minnesota the first of the season. ' There was a heavy frost at Memphis on Wednesday night ; also in North Mississippi and' Arkansas. It is feared great ' damage has been done to the late cotton. The news of the death of General Lee - caused profound sorrow in Memphis and other Southern cities. The bells were tolled and publio expressions of the sor row oi citizens generally maae. The receipts of ths St. Louis Fair last week were nearly seventy-nine thousand dollars, almost sixteen thousand more than last year. Over three -fourths' of the large amount were taken front admission tickets at the gate, the association charging nothing for the entrance of arti cles or stock. A Memphis dispatch says the Dickens- Bolton vendetta ended on Wednesday by the death of Dr. Samuel Dickens, the last of his family, wh accidentally (hot himself, from - the effects of which he died. He was ridinc in bngzy with a shot enn by his side, which he aecident ally discharged, lodging the entire charge in his arm and Bhonlder.

They will take passage on the Opelousas railroad cars on Monday to be transported to the vicinity of the plantations for which they have been imported. This is the second lot of coolies brooght by ship direct from China : bnt the probability is that they are only the aranf courier of many more to come. William Gage was put on trial before the Court of Common Pleas, in Richland county, on the 13th, for taking rail ont of the track of the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne . and Chicago railroad, near Lucas, on the 21at of Mar last, causing the train to leave the track and killing one man.

" FRENCH SOURCES. . , , , London, October 13. A dispatch from a French source says an engagement oo-currei on the 10th near Brnyer, between a body of Franc-Tireors and Prussians. After a sharp conflict the latter retired, with a loss of thirty killed and wounded. The French loss is not known. The occupation of Orleans by the Prus sians is not yet confirmed, though it is certain the French have fallen back along the left bank of the river. The Prussians are leaving Gonrnay and marching to Meziers, turning from St. Quentin. They threaten Amiens. An engagement occurred at Moltegras yesterday between the Uhlans and huz-zars ; 'no result is given. A force of 800 Prussians and 500 Saxons has already occupied Gisorres. The Germans have also appeared at Montedier, where a small detachment of them were defeated by Franc-Tire urs. A telegram from Arlon, Belgium, dated last evening, says heavy cannonading had ' been ' heard ' in the direction of Thionville. It is said the garrison of Montmedy have retreated to Stonay. - A FRENCH SUCCESS.

I London, October 13. Particulars of the battle before Metz, on Fridiy last, have been received. The French made a sortie in force and, after a battle, were driven back with tremenduous loss. The Prussians took a great number df pris- j . , oners. I The cattle in and around MeU are dy- ing by hundreds from rinderpest. The bodies cannot be burned fast enough to prevent the spread of the epidemic not withstanding hard frosts have occurred. The disease is spreading rapidly. The French fire from the fortifications of Metz continues incessantly. The Frano-Tireurs not being uniformed the soldiers of France, and shoot them at sight. A defeat of the French at Artenay on Monday is reported. A Prussian cavalry division drove 4,000 Mobiles across the Euro, near Cherisy. The losses of the latter is heavy. Nothing important from before Paris, via Berlin. The French fleet was still off Heligo land this morning. It is known that Garibaldi has left Tours in company with Colonel Trapoh for the seat of war, but their exact destination is not divulged. It is intimated he will take command at Orleans. SOMETHING VIA BERLIN.. Berlin, October 12. The obstacles to the conveyance and planting of the Prus sian siege guns have been so far overcome that the cannonade before Paris maybe momentarily expected. The Prussians occupied Orleans yester day. ' A French corps was encamped on the left bank of the river. . -;. ; Brussels, October 13. French prison ers have been removed from Beverloo because of a conspiracy to murder the guards and escape. The Eck of this city doubts the story of Napoleon's complicity in any conspira cy. . He is too eager of his personal safety to return to France. ANOTHER BALLOON FROM PARIS. Lille, October IX A balloon from Paris descended at Toumay to-day. The news from Paris is most cheering. Popular order is unbounded. The soldiers are anxiously awaiting the Prussian at tack, and have no doubt of their ability to withstand it. Perfect order reigns ev ery where. Confidence in General Tro- chn is limitless. Everybody is quiet, firm and courageous. feeling in PARIS. A Paris letter printed in the CoxttiU- tionnel says the word peace is tabooed in Paris. Everybody, is casting cannon, making mitraileuse, and constructing pontoons. . Enough of the latter are con structed to bridge the Atlantic Ocean. A 8TORY FROM PRU8SIAN SOURCES. Versailles, October 12, via. Berlin, October 13. Yesterday the French army of the Loire -were driven ont of Orleans after a nine hours' fight. Orleans was subsequently stormed. The Prussians took upward of ten thousand prisoners. Their loss was small. The Bavarians par ticipa'tedln this engagement. A WINTER CAMPAIGN FRENCH COAT OF ARMS. London, October 13. Prussian jour nals infer from, the fact that the Ger mans are preparing sheep skins that winter campaign is certain. The French international ambulances have been disbanded, and those organ iied by members of the French press soon will be. The new French coat of arms has mads its appearance; it consists of the figure of liberty with the legend, "In the name of the French people." On the reverse is a garland of mixed oak and olive, with a wheat ear in the center, and there also an inscription, "Repuhlique Fran caise Democratique one et indivisible. Around tne flgare are the word, "Lib erte eqnalite fratern'tte." ...... ...EWOLAJris.

J London, October 13. Prussia is now negotiating with the smaller 8tatee -of Germany for national nnity nnder Frederick in place of a federation. . The sessions of the North German Parliament will probably be resumed before the meeting of the Prussian Diet, toward the end of November. The Parliament will be required to provide means for the war and adjast certain questions spring-ing.from it. The elections for this body will probably take place on the 19th of October, and those for deputies in the Prussian Diet about eight days later. THE RINDERPEST. - - Brussels, October 13.

' ' A PRESIDENTIAL PROCLAMATION;' The President has issued, a proclamation declaring that all persons hereafter found within the territory or'jurisdiction of the United States, beginning- or setting on foot, or providing or preparing the means for military expeditions, or enterprises to be carried out thence against the territory or dominions of powers with whom the United States are at peace, by organizing bodies pretending : to ha ye . powers . ,,of government over . portions of the territories or dominions of powers with whom we are at peace, orby by being, or assuming to be, members of auoh iKxlieev-fcy levying or collecting money for the purpose of using the- same in carrying on military enterprises against such territories or dominions, by enlisting and organizing armed forces to be need against such powers, and by fitting out and equipping and arming vessels to transport such organised armed forces to be employed in hostilities against such powers; or all other violation of our neu trality laws, for which punishment is J provided by law, will be rigorously prose cuted therefor, and upon conviction and sentence to punishment will not be entitled to expect or receive clemency of the Executive to save them from consequences of their guilt. PRESIDENTIAL EXCURSION TO FREDERICK. The President's party arrived at Mon-ocacy Junction at half-past 11 o'clock, where they were met by a committee from the Agricultural Association of Frederick Maryland. Dr. Schley, in their behalf, tendered the President a cordial greeting. The President bowed his thanks and was then introduced to the committee and several gentlemen comprising the party. Arriving at Frederick, the President was greeted with cheers by the crowd. At the railroad station the visitors were placed in open carriages, and preceded by the Marine band, moved to the fair ground. The streets through which they passed were densely thronged with people, and the President wss re peatedly cheered. A NOTORIETY SEEKER. The following -dispatch was received to-day by Secretary Boutwell from Collector Robb, of Savannah, dated to-day : "I have just this moment learned that the 'flag on the Custom House was at half-mast for the death of General Lee. It was- ordered. by my deputies without my knowledge. I have ordered the flag at full i mast. - Much public feeling is manifested at my action. Shall the flag be lowered again. Answer immediately." In response to the above, Secretary Boutwell has telegraphed to Robb approving his action. . . YELLOW FEVER, IN TEXAS. The Collector of the port of Galveston, Texas, has arrived here, and states that the yellow fever is much more se rious in that city than it was elsewhere thought to be. Other accounts state that there was an unfortunate panic among tne citizens wnen tne lever nrst appeared, and that on the first day of the announcement over five hundred persons fled from the city, and that the facts have not been suppressed, but exag- eerated. Quarantine has been declared at Houston and the interior towns on the Central railroad. THE RIXDERPEST. Tfce Secretary of State several days since received a letter from Mr. H. Kreis- man, United States Consul at Berlin, Prussia, announcing that the rinderpest had broken out 'in Germany and on the frontier of France occupied by the Ger man troops. The letter is dated September 17, 1S70. Mr. Ercisman says: "The cattle plague rinderpest has broken out in many parts of Germany, and the French departments occupied by the German troops. The most stringent measures are taken to confine the disease to the infected districts, but without avail. It is rapidly spreading and threatens to work immense injury, while the prices of meat are greatly advanced, especially in .Benin." Mr. Kxiesmann then ' advises that the importation of all hides, eows, hair - and. wool from Germany and France should at once be stopped at onr ports. The Secretary of State transmitted the letter to the Secretary of the Treasury, and today Secretary Boutwell issued a circular order to all Collectors of Customs not to allow the landing of fancy neat cattle or hides from European countries, unless the invoice accompanying the importation has appended to it a Consular s certificate, setting forth that the importation is not infected, and does not come from a country or place where the disease (rinderpest) prevails. Secretary Boutwell does not include wool in this exclusion, because he does not think that the rinderpest can infect wool. The Collectors are ordered to rigidly enforce the order. . J i OUR PRUSSIAN NEUTRALITY. The protest of the Prnssian Govern ment, earnestly objecting to the sale of arms and ammunition to France, has been delivered to Secretary Fish by Baron Gerolt. but the former's reply has not yet been made public, instruction have been issued, nowever, irom tneAttorney- General's office to all District Attorneys and United States Marshals, to rigidly enforce, the recent proclamation of the President, and to call, when necessary, upon the military and naval forces of the T J t w1 Kta tea far i i) IiIa thtt an 1 n rf United States for aid. As to the sale of arms, it is held that this Government does not sell arms, ammnnition, or other material of war, to either France or Prussia, nor does this Government allow either the French or Prussian Govern ments to purchase such materials, as Government, directly or indirectly. The neutrality laws give the rights and privileges to individuals to sell, and in dividuals to buy on their own responsi bility and at their own risk. The right of vessels belonging directly to either Government to carry these arms to its Government is not conceded, and it is understood will not be allowed. An lm I portant determination has been arrived I at by this Government, and the above points are understood to embrace the de . termination THE PENSION BUSINESS. The annual accounts of the Pension office for the year ending June 30, have been completed. The expenditures ot the previous year were Wa,vzzMj). f or last year, although 25,000 pensioners were added to the rolls, the arrears in each case of from $500 to $1,500, the expendi tures were so,uuu less, or ?-J7,7o,uuo.

THE CAMPAIGN AGAINST SECRETARY COX Continues, Senators Chandler and Cam eron being the commanders of the forces. The movement is of the lowest order of WASH INQTON. political working, and disgusting in all its features.-.

'.' .Eiohmoxd, October 13,' 1670. Richmond presents a scene ' of mourning hardly witnessed in this .generation. The stores and public' buildings are all closed. Bells in all parts of the. city are tolling. On many doors are pictures and photographs of General Lee draped in crape, with evergreens. ' Citizens are standing in groups on the principal thoroughfares, and talk in subdued tones of the sad event. , The feeling that General Lee ought to be buried here, at the State's expense, is universal, and the Legislature, in making mis request ui ma jamuy, reiwraieu public opinion. The City Conncil met this afternoon at the call of the Mayor. . Governor Walker sent the following message to to the General Assembly : ' M It is with unaffected grief that I announce to you the painful intelligence of the death of General Robert E. Lee, at Lexington, yesterday morning. . He died, as ho had lived, a noble example of sublime principles and teachings ef the Christian roligion.' He goes down to the tomb amid the lamentations of au affectionate and sorrowing people. Of exalted publio ana private virtues, nis life and career he filled with the full measure of onr conception of a man. A stricken family, a bereaved State, and an affectionate people bow with reverence and humility before this visitation of Divine Providence. It is meet and fitting that you, the representatives of the people, should take such appropriate action as the melancholy occasion suggests, and I believe yon would but give expression to the universal desire of the people should you solicit the interment of the remains npon the grounds owned by the State at Holywood Cemetery, where hereafter they may raise a monumental shaft commemorative alike of their sincere and lasting affection for the man, and their profound appreciation of his greatness and goodness." After reading the message a joint resolution was unanimously passed expressive of the deep sorrow of Doth Houses at the sad event, and requesting the body be turned over to the State for interment at Hollywood cemetery, near this city. A joint committee, consisting of five members of the Honse and two of the Senate, and their respective officers, was appointed to go to Lexington and esoort the remains here, if the request is granted.

Prison Congress delegates are con stantly arriving, and the number is now from one hundred and fifty to two hun dred. The first paper read in the morn ing was a very able one by Judge Robert Pitman, of Massachusetts, on the terms of sentence, the proper length of which, he said, was a matter perplexing and dif ficult. He thought it desirable that great er equality be secured for the same, or like offenses, and suggested several means to that end. - Dr. Wolff, of Clinton prison. New York, read an esssay on Sanitary Science, in its anolicauou to prisons, in which he spoke aptly and well in relation to lo cating drainage, uitcnes, etc. Mr. M. U. mil, one ot the most emi nent . of criminal Judges in England, communicated a paper on the objections incident to sentences limited to a specified time. Mr. Hill contended, that it is impossible for a phy sician to predict whether the patient can be cured or when. So it is impossible for a Judge to foretell whether a pro pensity to crime can bo cured, and if cured when the happy consummation can be effected. He contended forcibly that the true principle of publio punishment was no discharge from prison ex cept npon satisfactory proof of reforma tion afforded by the convict An exceedingly animated discussion arose on this question, in which it clearly appeared mat tnero was a general con currenee on the part f the Congress in tnis sentiment. . .. The first paper in the afternoon was bv Mr. ruwin mil, ot London, on the novel subject. of criminal capitalists, naming owners of houses used by criminals as dwellings for the entertainment of receiv era of stolen goods, whether bv nnrchas or on pawn, and the makers of tiurgla nous instruments, fie said that enme was a craft requiring the combination of capital and labor, the same as any other cralt. He tnougbt society bad mado mistake in its warfare npon crime by triking at the operators, "the thieves." one by one, instead of at the capitalists in a body. The Kev. Mr. avers, ot uuio. read au essay on district prisons for minor offend ers to be controlled by the State rather than by local authorities, the necessity for which he contended was imperative. The evening session was taken np with two papers ot great breadth and ability both on the Irish prison system, one from each side of the Atlantic. The former by Sir Walter Crafton, the author of the system, and the latter by F. B. Sanborn an enthusiastic and able advocate of it. Both writers contend that in its funda mental principles the Irish system was applicable to all countries, and might be readily introduced into the United States as in Ireland. THE NORTHWEST.

Sargent, who had previously entertained hostile feelings toward each other, met in the streets in the presents of several other citizens, and, after exchanging a few words, Sar gent struck Monahan, when the latter drew a knife and stabbed Sargent, caus ing his death in a few hours. Secretary Boutwell has notified Gov ernor Anstin, that in order to prevent the spread of small pox in Minnesota and along the northern boundaries, the Collector of Customs at Pembina has been instructed to refuse entry, until he is sat isfied the same can be imported without dancer to the health of the community. to all buffalo robes, peltry and skins, ar riving at that port from any lnlected dis trict of Red River.

Very few reliable returns have been received this morning, and the result on the State ticket is still in donbt. The vote is so close it will probably require the official returns to determine the result. The result for Congress in the Fourth district is still doubtful.

The deliberations of the Coufercuoe are presided over by Bishop E. R. Ames, to whose discreet parliamentary manage ment may, in a great measure, be attrib uted the fact that more routine business incident to the commencement of a session was disposed of yesterday than at any previous session for a number of years. With a commanding and courteous dignity he enlists the respect of the entire body, and enforces just sufficient of ties minntia of Parliamentary practice to prevent confusion, and almost imperceptibly checks any disposition to expend mnch breath on routine matters wnicn, tnougu v jjiup-.. working OI tne oooy, are me mure unresting the quicker they are disposed of. Bishop Ames is a portly gentleman of about medium height, with gray whis kers cut short, witn. speccli deliberate, distinct and dignified, and a general mannnr that would meet the popular ex- rwt..r.ion as to what a Bishop is. He has just enough of the venerable appearance to mate uim re-rns-iicu. iui uia nnnno-h to nreclude the idea that he has the requisite vitality aud ability for the station ne occupies.

From his last Snnday's sermon. 1 . That heaven which yon think of and I think of is purely imaginary. Imagination is the pathway between the flesh and the spirit. It is that which gives to every man aspiration. Men despise it because it is not a measuring quantity. We are taught that it is not safe to build on, but I aver that in the economy of God's providence the human race has' been instructed more through its imagination than through its reason. We are not to suppose that there is a hell literally, place of Are and brimstone. I don't believe it, and you don't believe it, and you ought not to believe it any more than you are to believe that heaven is really paved with golden paving stones. No one believes it; if they did there would be more misers anxious for their souls' salvation. Amusement. I The "Teat trouble of symbols is that they first rep resent, tnen Binder, it is possible tor tbe Bible itself to stand in tbe way of under standing. I hold it is tho duty of tho Christian to interpret, not the letter, but the spirit of revelation, and many good people will no donbt be shocked to hear me say that you may take the theory on which the Srcipture was employed to represent heaven, and then, initead of those figures you may take your own, and make your own figures of heaven. Now, Mary is not mentioned in the Apocalypse, but tbe Mary who lett you heart broken, and went np into heaven, you can never forgot ; and then, when your old lather, who was prophet, pnest, lover and friend to you, disappeared from your sight, and went to join other friends in another land, then yon began to peo- Elo heaven with laminar laces, ana eaven begins to get full of people, and you have made ot Heaven a vase laud " 1 J 1 1 . 1 i- .1 .. The reason, then, ot tne indistinctuess of teaching in the New Testament is apparent. We are not developed. We are not prepared to understand the things that lie beyond us. We see through a glass darkly, but by-and-by we shall see face to faco. For instauce, the lower classes of society the gross and animal, and even vicious cannot understand tho higher states of society. They cannot understand the position of a pure, virtuous,, and refined family. In other words, the bottom of society cannot understand the top ; but the top can understand the bottom, because the higher always includes in it the developments of the lower. So we cannot interpret that which is above although that which is above interprets us clear down to the bottom. If men understood the blessedness of the state which is to come it might be a snare. We are here to sufter, wo are here to earn, we are here to be wrought noon. You are seekinsr for yourself. You will never find youwelf this side of the grave. .Now, my mends, do you make a right use of heaven T He that has a true way of looking at heaven will be more industrious, more patient, more manly on earth. He has no fit heaven whose heaven makes him effeminate. He has struck tho true way of making heaven whose heaven makes him strong, hopeful, sweet, gentle, amiable and teach able in tne present lite, now, may uoa crant that every one of us may look not simply at Scripture, but through Scripture into Ufe itself, that we may fashion for urselves a heaven that is so near to ns that it may ever distill celestial influ ence npon us.

With the authority of one who is ou the spot, the Portsmouth (New Hampshire) Timet speaks of the manner in which the construction department of our naval service is managed. Our ships of war, according to the statements of that journal, are unfit for any purpose except pleasuring. As that is the chief duty to which our Naval Secretary as- " signs the national fleet, there would seem to be no objection ; but the Timet goes on to say that some Of the new vessels are hardly seaworthy even for grand excursions.' The mode of producing these naval abortions is to agglomerate the patents and plans of the various favorites of the Department,- jambling them together in the navy 'yard workshops, until there is a masaiva structure with hull, engines, rigging and armament all complete, but utterly unfitted' for com bination. As an illustration, it is men--tioned that a ship has left the Portsmouth yard within a year whose trans cannot be fired, not even for a salute, so utterly nnadapted is tbe vessel lor tbe armament and the sans to the vessel. This is the result of constructing ships under the direction of incompetent men, and fitting them out nnder the orders of men who know nothing about such business. Robeson hasn't been to Ports-month, as Borio did, but perhaps wheu it comes warm weather again lie may find time to make np a Tallapoosa party and take a jaunt down that way. It would amply repay him for the trouble of a visit.

The jollitj 'of the Radicals last night over the election reminds ns somewhat of the extraordinary efforts of Ilok TaP-i.et, to preserve his good nature under disconraging circumstances. ; Thanks to the negrtr vote, they have carried the State by about the same majority, as last year.' Thanks to the 1 negro vote, they have elected Pekat, Bingham, Smith, and three or four other Congressmen ; bnt the negro vote did not save them their great leader, SCHKSCK, or keep Frank McKinkey oat of Congress.

Politically; Ohio is itaOi k bnt this result we accept as a Democratic reverse. , , Speeches were made in the State Hoose yard last evening by a number of white Republicans, but the genuine b"na Jtfte black Radicals, whose' votes saved the party, from . a-. (Usa&troa defeat., ittj the State, and helped to elect a number of Congressmen, were not so prominent as they were before election. They got the cold shoulder decidedly. Were not invited t participate; 'J Oo away, black man, don't come nigh me," was the sentiment of the chaps who held the- reins. This was' discouraging to the large, attendance of colored feminines present, attracted by the eloquence of the jollifiers.

After a sharp conflict the latter retired, with a loss of thirty killed and wounded. The French loss is not known. The occupation of Orleans by the Prus sians is not yet confirmed, though it is certain the French have fallen back along the left bank of the river. The Prussians are leaving Gonrnay and marching to Meziers, turning from St. Quentin. They threaten Amiens. An engagement occurred at Moltegras yesterday between the Uhlans and huz-zars ; 'no result is given. A force of 800 Prussians and 500 Saxons has already occupied Gisorres. The Germans have also appeared at Montedier, where a small detachment of them were defeated by Franc-Tire urs. A telegram from Arlon, Belgium, dated last evening, says heavy cannonading had ' been ' heard ' in the direction of Thionville. It is said the garrison of Montmedy have retreated to Stonay. - A FRENCH SUCCESS.

Popular order is unbounded. The soldiers are anxiously awaiting the Prussian at tack, and have no doubt of their ability to withstand it. Perfect order reigns ev ery where. Confidence in General Tro- chn is limitless. Everybody is quiet, firm and courageous. feeling in PARIS. A Paris letter printed in the CoxttiU- tionnel says the word peace is tabooed in Paris.

Prussian jour nals infer from, the fact that the Ger mans are preparing sheep skins that winter campaign is certain. The French international ambulances have been disbanded, and those organ iied by members of the French press soon will be. The new French coat of arms has mads its appearance; it consists of the figure of liberty with the legend, "In the name of the French people." On the reverse is a garland of mixed oak and olive, with a wheat ear in the center, and there also an inscription, "Repuhlique Fran caise Democratique one et indivisible.

PRESIDENTIAL EXCURSION TO FREDERICK. The President's party arrived at Mon-ocacy Junction at half-past 11 o'clock, where they were met by a committee from the Agricultural Association of Frederick Maryland. Dr. Schley, in their behalf, tendered the President a cordial greeting. The President bowed his thanks and was then introduced to the committee and several gentlemen comprising the party. Arriving at Frederick, the President was greeted with cheers by the crowd. At the railroad station the visitors were placed in open carriages, and preceded by the Marine band, moved to the fair ground. The streets through which they passed were densely thronged with people, and the President wss re peatedly cheered. A NOTORIETY SEEKER. The following -dispatch was received to-day by Secretary Boutwell from Collector Robb, of Savannah, dated to-day : "I have just this moment learned that the 'flag on the Custom House was at half-mast for the death of General Lee. It was- ordered. by my deputies without my knowledge. I have ordered the flag at full i mast. - Much public feeling is manifested at my action. Shall the flag be lowered again. Answer immediately." In response to the above, Secretary Boutwell has telegraphed to Robb approving his action. . . YELLOW FEVER, IN TEXAS. The Collector of the port of Galveston, Texas, has arrived here, and states that the yellow fever is much more se rious in that city than it was elsewhere thought to be. Other accounts state that there was an unfortunate panic among tne citizens wnen tne lever nrst appeared, and that on the first day of the announcement over five hundred persons fled from the city, and that the facts have not been suppressed, but exag- eerated. Quarantine has been declared at Houston and the interior towns on the Central railroad. THE RIXDERPEST. Tfce Secretary of State several days since received a letter from Mr. H. Kreis- man, United States Consul at Berlin, Prussia, announcing that the rinderpest had broken out 'in Germany and on the frontier of France occupied by the Ger man troops. The letter is dated September 17, 1S70. Mr. Ercisman says: "The cattle plague rinderpest has broken out in many parts of Germany, and the French departments occupied by the German troops. The most stringent measures are taken to confine the disease to the infected districts, but without avail. It is rapidly spreading and threatens to work immense injury, while the prices of meat are greatly advanced, especially in .Benin." Mr. Kxiesmann then ' advises that the importation of all hides, eows, hair - and. wool from Germany and France should at once be stopped at onr ports. The Secretary of State transmitted the letter to the Secretary of the Treasury, and today Secretary Boutwell issued a circular order to all Collectors of Customs not to allow the landing of fancy neat cattle or hides from European countries, unless the invoice accompanying the importation has appended to it a Consular s certificate, setting forth that the importation is not infected, and does not come from a country or place where the disease (rinderpest) prevails. Secretary Boutwell does not include wool in this exclusion, because he does not think that the rinderpest can infect wool. The Collectors are ordered to rigidly enforce the order. . J i OUR PRUSSIAN NEUTRALITY. The protest of the Prnssian Govern ment, earnestly objecting to the sale of arms and ammunition to France, has been delivered to Secretary Fish by Baron Gerolt. but the former's reply has not yet been made public, instruction have been issued, nowever, irom tneAttorney- General's office to all District Attorneys and United States Marshals, to rigidly enforce, the recent proclamation of the President, and to call, when necessary, upon the military and naval forces of the T J t w1 Kta tea far i i) IiIa thtt an 1 n rf United States for aid. As to the sale of arms, it is held that this Government does not sell arms, ammnnition, or other material of war, to either France or Prussia, nor does this Government allow either the French or Prussian Govern ments to purchase such materials, as Government, directly or indirectly. The neutrality laws give the rights and privileges to individuals to sell, and in dividuals to buy on their own responsi bility and at their own risk. The right of vessels belonging directly to either Government to carry these arms to its Government is not conceded, and it is understood will not be allowed. An lm I portant determination has been arrived I at by this Government, and the above points are understood to embrace the de . termination THE PENSION BUSINESS.

' Citizens are standing in groups on the principal thoroughfares, and talk in subdued tones of the sad event. , The feeling that General Lee ought to be buried here, at the State's expense, is universal, and the Legislature, in making mis request ui ma jamuy, reiwraieu public opinion. The City Conncil met this afternoon at the call of the Mayor. . Governor Walker sent the following message to to the General Assembly : ' M It is with unaffected grief that I announce to you the painful intelligence of the death of General Robert E. Lee, at Lexington, yesterday morning. . He died, as ho had lived, a noble example of sublime principles and teachings ef the Christian roligion.' He goes down to the tomb amid the lamentations of au affectionate and sorrowing people. Of exalted publio ana private virtues, nis life and career he filled with the full measure of onr conception of a man. A stricken family, a bereaved State, and an affectionate people bow with reverence and humility before this visitation of Divine Providence. It is meet and fitting that you, the representatives of the people, should take such appropriate action as the melancholy occasion suggests, and I believe yon would but give expression to the universal desire of the people should you solicit the interment of the remains npon the grounds owned by the State at Holywood Cemetery, where hereafter they may raise a monumental shaft commemorative alike of their sincere and lasting affection for the man, and their profound appreciation of his greatness and goodness." After reading the message a joint resolution was unanimously passed expressive of the deep sorrow of Doth Houses at the sad event, and requesting the body be turned over to the State for interment at Hollywood cemetery, near this city. A joint committee, consisting of five members of the Honse and two of the Senate, and their respective officers, was appointed to go to Lexington and esoort the remains here, if the request is granted.

Prison Congress delegates are con stantly arriving, and the number is now from one hundred and fifty to two hun dred. The first paper read in the morn ing was a very able one by Judge Robert Pitman, of Massachusetts, on the terms of sentence, the proper length of which, he said, was a matter perplexing and dif ficult. He thought it desirable that great er equality be secured for the same, or like offenses, and suggested several means to that end. - Dr. Wolff, of Clinton prison. New York, read an esssay on Sanitary Science, in its anolicauou to prisons, in which he spoke aptly and well in relation to lo cating drainage, uitcnes, etc. Mr. M. U. mil, one ot the most emi nent . of criminal Judges in England, communicated a paper on the objections incident to sentences limited to a specified time. Mr. Hill contended, that it is impossible for a phy sician to predict whether the patient can be cured or when. So it is impossible for a Judge to foretell whether a pro pensity to crime can bo cured, and if cured when the happy consummation can be effected. He contended forcibly that the true principle of publio punishment was no discharge from prison ex cept npon satisfactory proof of reforma tion afforded by the convict An exceedingly animated discussion arose on this question, in which it clearly appeared mat tnero was a general con currenee on the part f the Congress in tnis sentiment. . .. The first paper in the afternoon was bv Mr. ruwin mil, ot London, on the novel subject. of criminal capitalists, naming owners of houses used by criminals as dwellings for the entertainment of receiv era of stolen goods, whether bv nnrchas or on pawn, and the makers of tiurgla nous instruments, fie said that enme was a craft requiring the combination of capital and labor, the same as any other cralt.

The evening session was taken np with two papers ot great breadth and ability both on the Irish prison system, one from each side of the Atlantic. The former by Sir Walter Crafton, the author of the system, and the latter by F. B. Sanborn an enthusiastic and able advocate of it. Both writers contend that in its funda mental principles the Irish system was applicable to all countries, and might be readily introduced into the United States as in Ireland. THE NORTHWEST.

From his last Snnday's sermon. 1 . That heaven which yon think of and I think of is purely imaginary. Imagination is the pathway between the flesh and the spirit. It is that which gives to every man aspiration. Men despise it because it is not a measuring quantity. We are taught that it is not safe to build on, but I aver that in the economy of God's providence the human race has' been instructed more through its imagination than through its reason. We are not to suppose that there is a hell literally, place of Are and brimstone. I don't believe it, and you don't believe it, and you ought not to believe it any more than you are to believe that heaven is really paved with golden paving stones. No one believes it; if they did there would be more misers anxious for their souls' salvation. Amusement. I The "Teat trouble of symbols is that they first rep resent, tnen Binder, it is possible tor tbe Bible itself to stand in tbe way of under standing. I hold it is tho duty of tho Christian to interpret, not the letter, but the spirit of revelation, and many good people will no donbt be shocked to hear me say that you may take the theory on which the Srcipture was employed to represent heaven, and then, initead of those figures you may take your own, and make your own figures of heaven. Now, Mary is not mentioned in the Apocalypse, but tbe Mary who lett you heart broken, and went np into heaven, you can never forgot ; and then, when your old lather, who was prophet, pnest, lover and friend to you, disappeared from your sight, and went to join other friends in another land, then yon began to peo- Elo heaven with laminar laces, ana eaven begins to get full of people, and you have made ot Heaven a vase laud " 1 J 1 1 . 1 i- .1 .. The reason, then, ot tne indistinctuess of teaching in the New Testament is apparent. We are not developed. We are not prepared to understand the things that lie beyond us. We see through a glass darkly, but by-and-by we shall see face to faco. For instauce, the lower classes of society the gross and animal, and even vicious cannot understand tho higher states of society. They cannot understand the position of a pure, virtuous,, and refined family. In other words, the bottom of society cannot understand the top ; but the top can understand the bottom, because the higher always includes in it the developments of the lower. So we cannot interpret that which is above although that which is above interprets us clear down to the bottom. If men understood the blessedness of the state which is to come it might be a snare. We are here to sufter, wo are here to earn, we are here to be wrought noon. You are seekinsr for yourself. You will never find youwelf this side of the grave. .Now, my mends, do you make a right use of heaven T He that has a true way of looking at heaven will be more industrious, more patient, more manly on earth. He has no fit heaven whose heaven makes him effeminate. He has struck tho true way of making heaven whose heaven makes him strong, hopeful, sweet, gentle, amiable and teach able in tne present lite, now, may uoa crant that every one of us may look not simply at Scripture, but through Scripture into Ufe itself, that we may fashion for urselves a heaven that is so near to ns that it may ever distill celestial influ ence npon us.

With the authority of one who is ou the spot, the Portsmouth (New Hampshire) Timet speaks of the manner in which the construction department of our naval service is managed. Our ships of war, according to the statements of that journal, are unfit for any purpose except pleasuring. As that is the chief duty to which our Naval Secretary as- " signs the national fleet, there would seem to be no objection ; but the Timet goes on to say that some Of the new vessels are hardly seaworthy even for grand excursions.' The mode of producing these naval abortions is to agglomerate the patents and plans of the various favorites of the Department,- jambling them together in the navy 'yard workshops, until there is a masaiva structure with hull, engines, rigging and armament all complete, but utterly unfitted' for com bination. As an illustration, it is men--tioned that a ship has left the Portsmouth yard within a year whose trans cannot be fired, not even for a salute, so utterly nnadapted is tbe vessel lor tbe armament and the sans to the vessel. This is the result of constructing ships under the direction of incompetent men, and fitting them out nnder the orders of men who know nothing about such business. Robeson hasn't been to Ports-month, as Borio did, but perhaps wheu it comes warm weather again lie may find time to make np a Tallapoosa party and take a jaunt down that way. It would amply repay him for the trouble of a visit.
