OF YESTERDAY.
General XctVi
General Sherman is being feted in the prin
cipal cities of the West. One hundred and
fittv thousand bales of cotton of the old crop
remain in Texas, while this year's crop is not
over fiity thousand bales. Mr. Harlan,
Secretary of the Interior, Loped, in a speech
the other day, that the American Republic
would maintain the Inviolability of Mexico,
against foreign iuvaders—-The indications
of trouble between our forces in Mexico and
the Imperialists in Mexic o are increasing.—
It is proposed to erect anew Post Office for
New York on the site of ft trnum's Museum.
■—■Cortina, the Mexican leader, has recent
ly seized t vo river steamers. A returned
Confederate soldier was lately expelled from
a Presbyrerian churah in St. Louis, because
he refused to acknowledge that he had shi
ed in joining the rebel army.—The appoint
ment of a few new Postmasters brought a
swarm of office seekers to W ashing; oa last
week. Tuo monrtur iroa-ciad Dander

Jame 9 River Canal is now o/>ea as far as
Lexington——Government has lately sold tal
low, hides, etc., at Washington to the
amount of §44,000. Seven-Thirties sell to
the amount of over four millions a day.
The Destruction cf Barmim'. Muieum.
The fire at Bamum’s Museum, from celeb
rity of the place and the peculiar character
of the property destroyed, has furnished the
quick-witted city reporters of New York a
fiaid for an exteusive display of brilliant and
sensational writing. Charges of Muncbaus
enism are bandied between the rival journals,
aud the soft impeaehments perhaps followed
up by a story of more glaring monstrosity than
the one exposed. The New York World in the
head-lines preceding its account of the con
flagration enumerates, in bold type, the va
ried contents of the Museum as follows •.

The World s imaginative account of the
EXIT OF THE GIANTESS
is decidedly good:
The ghastliness of the scene partook of the
horiibly-ludicrous, when the human cariosi
ties appeared at the portal amid the hoots
and halloos of meu. The giantess came first,
scared out of half her growth, and theu a
giantess, holding aloft her dabbled skirts to
the exposure ol a foot like one of Drake’s
Plantation rocks, and in her tremendous fist
clasping a crowu of glass diamonds and em
eralds. Her huge eyes were almost color
less with terror; she wen* down Ann street
like one of the chimneys promenading.
The fat woruau next appeared, lor this
time only without appetite. Her figure was
not adapted for locomotion, and her dress,
b&ri at the neck, showed a breadth and
depth of shoulder upon which the cinders
were bound to strike it they fell anywhere.
Her retreat, in care of a policeman, was a
splendid example of size making time ; her
golden (?)'crown glittered as she went, and
she took refuge in a newspaper office, where
we saw her lamenting the loss of her ward
robe. The loss of one dress must have ruined
her; her girth was thatnf the great California
pine, around which no four men coiiid clasp
their united arms. She .reminded us of Ru
bens's Flemish beauties pursued by satyrs.
When this lady took her seat in the office,
she modestly fainted, but wisely did not fall.
Who cou and have picked her up ? She awoke
with an extensive blush aud said :
"Please give me some water I”
“Bring her a tank!" said a pert clerk
It seemed to us that this lady telt nut so
much abashed as melancholy. Every man
•who looked at her was taking twenty-five
ceatsd'rotn her pocket.
Count Albert de Revel has, according to
e Parisian correspondent of the Athenaeum,
beefl left’two thousand pounds a year by an
eccentric uncle, on the singular condition
that, within two years, he shall marry a tall,
slim lady, of “harmonious proportions, "with
long and thick golden hair. She must have
an open forehead, blue eyes, brilliant white
skiu, a well made nose, a small mouth,grace
ful limb 3 , aud she is to be full of grace, ahd
her character is to be slightly shaded with a
poetic languor. Albert admits that tbe con
dition is not a hard one, save iu the difficulty
of finding the peerless beauty who is to share
his two thousand pounds (or ten thousand
dollars) a year with him.

EMPLOYMENT.
May it not be well for the young men and
youth of pur southern cities, to cdn9ider the
opportunities opening to them in the me
chanic arts ? Have they observed in these
times df war and calamity, the great advan
tages which the artisan has over the clerk
or merchant ? While bank officers, mer
chants and clerks are prostrated without em
ployment and without means, the good me
chanic, with his capital iu his head and
limbs, finds ready and remunerative busi
ness. Heretofore, the existence of slavery
has degraded manual labor, aud placed the
odium of caste upon the mechanic, to some
extent; but this state of things has passed
away. Henceforth the mechanic will be
honored aud respected according to merit.
Iu addition to this the demand for the pro
ductions of mechanic arts and cratts will be
far greater thgn ever before. Labor-saving
machinery will be employed in agriculture,
and in all departments of life, to a tar
greater extent than in former times. The
sluves were not sufficiently intelligent to
keep in order, and work machinery to any
advantage : and they were almost univer
sally .opposed to its use. They preferred the
old and simple way, and it was too much
trouble to teach them the use of new inven
tions. But with more intelligent laborers
all improvements will be adopted. Hence
an increased demand lor to pro
duce the implements and machinery.
Let it be remembered that henceforth me
chanics will be both respected and re
warded.
The merchant’s life is full of unceasing
cares, anxieties aud toils. It is also very un
certain as to final success, and unfavorable
as to the enjoyments of domestic life. The
mechanic and the farmer have few cares ;
better assurances of success, and more leisure
for home delights. In lieu,. therefore, of
crowding the raerchantile profession, and
waiting for employment as cletks, would it
not be wise to adopt the pursuits of the
mechanic, or the vocation of the farmer ?
The freedmen will never become the me
chanics of the South. Their place is the til
lage ot the soil. Even here, they will not
meet the demands of the State. They never
have done so, and they will do less in the
futura. First, because will be fewer in
nuiulr-the time has come to die with
thousands of them. Secondly, because no
coercion can be used with them, but that of
the stomach, aud this tails with present sup
ply. They are improvident and reckless of
the future. When present wants are sup
plied, as a general rule, they cease to labor.
The present high price of cotton will prompt
the farmers, to present the most liberal terms
to retain the freedmen on their farms, but
they will bo only partially successful. The
negro wi’l have change, and, as far as pos
sible, the lreedom of idleness. Hence the
field is open aud inviting to the whites, to be
come cultivators of the soil. It is the hap
piest and most independent of all pursuits,
and in Georgia will be crowned with abun
dant success. Georgian.
Tbe Work of Confiscation begun iu Rich
mond.
The Richmond correspondent of the New
York Herald, under date of July 10th, gives
the following account of the operation of the
confiscation agents in Richmond :
A Confiscation Department has been duly
inaugurated in this city under the auspices
of Judge Underwood, with his son as one of
the chief officers. The preliminaries in the
work of confiscation were commenced to
day by the seizure of tlve Tredegar Works,
the property of General Joseph R. Anderson,
and the service of notices upon the tenantry
of other citizens of wealth to pay no more
rent to the parties from whom they rented
the property. Among these citizens I have
heard mentioned the names of Joseph H.
and Win. G. Crenshaw, James H. Grant,
Wm. C. Allen, the Haxalls, former proprie
tor* of the celebrated Haxall flour mills, and
many others of the wealthiest citizens of
Richmond. The Confiscation agents were
engaged all day taking descriptions of the
property liable to confiscation • and giyiug
notices staying the payment of rents to the
reputed owners. This movement was ap
prehended since the failute of the deputation
trom this city ,to induce the President to
modify the thirteenth clause of his Amnesty
proclamation, which except 9 from pardon
? ergons worth over twenty thousand dollars,
t was supposed at first that, this clause had
reference only to parties who hold commis
sions iu the rebel army above the rank of
Colonel, or a corresponding rank in the navy.
Now, however, tbe omnion seems to prevail
that all persons in the confederacy not known
to have been loyal to the United States gov
ernihent are subject to this decree of confis
cation. All seem now tc concur in the idea
t hat the agrarian policy is to be enforced,
aud that, a sweeping system of confiscation,
which will embrace all parties, owning over
twenty thousand dollars worth ot property,
has been fully and finally determined upon
with a view to the payment of tf(e Northern
war debt, or as much of it as possiple.
The confiscation list, as I understand, em
braces, among a series other buildings in
this city, the Spootswood Hotel, the prop
erty of Joseph H. Crenshaw; the United
States Hoiel, the property in part of tit?
Cabell familv; the Exchange Hotel, the
property of Lancaster & Sou, brokers; the
Sc. Charles Hotel, which was used as a hos
pital for a time by the rebel government,
owned by a wealthy firm iu this city; several
houses, the property of Mr. YVm. C. Allen, a
citizen of large wealth, and a large number
of other houses, a list of which I will en
deavor to send you by next mail.
The city is in a state of considerable ex
citement iu consequence of this movement,
aud men who lately esteemed themselves
worth hundreds of thousands, now look for
ward to a future of distress and poverty.
—Gen. Warren is in Washington, without
couimaud, and sorely exercised about the al
legations advanced against him in General
Sheridan’s report. He will probably demand
a court-martial.
LETTER FROM MEW YORK. %
New York, Friday, July 14, 1865.
The Sensation
of the week has been, not the “conflagration
of Moscow,” but the burning ot the Mu
seum, which has for so many years been
tbe chief attraction for thousand ot coun
trymen. The'fire was a remorseless one,
and burned up snakes, fishes, tigers, wax
figures, birds, seals, whales, and other
figures, without the least compunction, and
then finished up by destroying several large
stores in close proximity.
St. Paul’s Church
had a rather narrow escape, blit was provi
dentially saved, albeit, tbe statute bt St.
Paul now looks more like a refugee contra
band than a first-class white man’s saint.
The loss of this noble old edifice would have
been deplored more by the people than five
hundred Museums. *
Lost and Saved at the Fire.
Among the works of art saved at the
Museum fire yesterday, was the Greek Slave.
Also twenty-four gigantic pictures illustra
ting Washington's battles, painted by John
McNevin, which were soon to be exhibited
as a panorama. Fortunately they had not
yet been taken into the Museum buildifg,
but were stored elsewhere. The giantess
Anna Swan had a narrow escape. She was
found at the head of the stairs in a swoon
ing condition from the smoke, and was with
difficulty assisted out of the building. She
lost everything except the clothes she wore
aud in her trunk was one. hundred and twen
ty dollars in goid besides some greenbacks
and all her clothing. The wax figure of
Jeff Davis was carried out, but just as the
street was reached its head dropped off. It
wa6 afterwards found suspended to a lamp
post. A soldier was forced to jump from
iku third story window. He says he had iu
his company James Burns of Lancaster, Pa.,
member of N. Y. Sixty-ninth Regiment, and
it is feared he perished. The monster bear
was lowered Irom an tipper window on a lad
der by a chain attached to his neck. He was
very docile. The Learned Seal was also got
out, though lie fought against the rough treat
ment he received. t The tanks holding the
Whale and Alligator were broken to let the
water flood the building, leaving their oc
cupants to roast rather than boil.
Oar Streets
are, in many places, in a shocking condition.
Our Health Commissioners recently made a
new contract with a firm for the cleansing of
all our thoroughfares for the sum of $498,000
per annum. This firm was prepared to en
gage the old force of street workmen at
$1 75 per day for laborers, and four dollars
per day for each team. These rates the men
refused to accept, although it is a well known
fact that these people cannot earn even that
amount at any other business, and, from
personal observation of the extremely rapid
style of their movements while at work, I
should judge a half dollar per day would
overpay their imperial laziness. The Labor
ers’ Association took hold of the matter* and
urged them not to go to work until tlieir de
mands were acceded to, the whole opposi
tion beiug undoubtedly inspired by certain fel
lows who hibernate in the region of City
Hall, well kuotffa to tbe public as peeulative
members of “the ring.” The contractors
are in earnest, and finidiug themselves unable
to obtain the services of the late workmen,
immediately set about employing others, aud
are building caits of their own. The men
they have employed have beeh most out
rageously threatened, and in some instances
have been stoqed and otherwise maltreated,
the police, as a general thing, sidiug w ith
the strikers, it big growl is roriiiig all oyer
the city at the bad condition of the streets,
and the strikers make the most ot it. The
real fact is, that the streets are in no worse
condition than in any former year at this
season, but “tbe ring,” not having a hand in
at the plunder, they manage to Keep a few
of the reporters posted ou the “ shocking
condition” of our streets and avenues, and
“that’s what’s the matter.” 8o long as Boole
thought he was riding a hobby horse
(that is, the Street Inspectorship) right
straight into the Mayoralty, he was an inde
fatigable worker; but just as soon as he dis
covered that he had not a ghost of a chance,
the only hard work he has done has been to
draw the money. If the present contractors
are given a fair show, they will, it is believed
by respectable people,keep ouf streets cleauer
than they have been for years; but, so long as
a half million dollars are allowed for this duty,
we must expect a perfect howl from the
ousted thieves of the ring, who would do the
same were a thousand Hercules employed
on our .dust and filth-encrusted -Manhattan
Auge&nic Stable.
Hot Corn
is shrilly and semi-melodiously sang in our
streets of evening's bv dusky Aunties, with
beads wrapped m bandannas aqd check
aprons, whose principal patrons consist of
bibulous youth who consider an investment
of twenty-five cents per ear cheaper as an
andidote for lightning than matudinal quarts
Kissiogen.
P. S.—The reader must not imagine the
Aunties don’t wear anything else than ban
dannas and check aprons, because they have
actually been known to wear shoes also.
Sport, >
seems to be a prominent feature with a very
large proportion of our population nowa
days. The race courses in this neighborhood
are.weli attended daily to witness the exploits
of “flying steeds,” and of some steeds whose
time, cannot be enumerated as of the flying
order —our yachtsmen make their daily trips
to the Hook, when, having made all the
ladies suffer from mu.l de mer, take great plea
sure in resuscitating them with champagne,
boned chicken, aud soU speeches on the
hqmettaid trip—the swell-mob sports have
located under the wing of John Morrissey
aud other gamblers at Saratoga the past
week, while the barefooted ‘sports’ of Baxter
street bet their pennies on the number of
minutes a cat will live after she is hung to a
lamp-post. It’s all sport, you know !
Tile Gurrotn*' Carnival.
Our city was never more unsafe to pedes
trians in the night than at the present time.
Our much vaunted metropolitan police is fast
losing caste. Indeed the regular patrols
amount to nothing, and the chiet thought of
the managers appears directed to the detec
tive system, leaving the suspicion that re
wards are a much more powerful incentive
tq duty than regular salaries. Scarce a night
passes that someone is not knocked down,
or garroted, even in our most frequented
thoroughfares, and within a few rods of
where one shout ought to bring together fifty
policemen. But shout as one will, not a po
licemau shows himself. Returned soldiers,
straying about the streets, have been, time
and again, thus assaulted and robbed. A
few nights since one went out of his hotel
shcvtly after twelve o’clock, to get some sup
per, and just as be reached Beekmau street
he was met by two men, one of whom ac
costed him with “Gocfd evening," and in
stantly the other struck him. The veteran
had been in too many rough scrimmages to be
much disconcerted by the blow, and taking
a step backward drew from his pocket a
knife and went in, catting and slashing to
the. right and left. One of his assailants
was so badly cut that he had to be helped
off by his comrade. Tbe solder returned to
his hotel, and exhibited his kuife dripping
with blood, saying he was satisfied if his as
sailants were.
The Approaching Termination
Os the great Astor Lease from the Trinity
Church Association, has given occasion to
bring into notice again the startling revela
tions of the immense wealth or that institu
tion ; its possessions of real estate; how it
acquired its enormous property, &c., &c.—
None of tbe property held by the Church was
ever conferred upon it by Federal or State
authority. It was all conferred in the Eng
lish grant conveying the “King’s farm and
garden.” The estate originally compiised
two thousand and sixty.eight lots, but it was
subsequently redgped by selling one thou
sand and fifty-nine, and* giving away three
hundred and eighteen, leaving iu possession
of the. Church now six hundred and ninety
one. And tliese form the most valuable real
estate in the city. During the Revolution
Trinity took sides with royalty, and one
time when Washington was about to attend
the Church service, one of his generals re
quested of the Rector that the violent pray
ers for the King and Royal family be omit
ted. The request was wholly disregarded.
The Astor Lease, now about to expire, in
cludes three hundred and thirty-six lots, and
was let in 1766 at seventy-five cents -per lot.
They are all occupied, of course, by buildings
which yield high ren|». Some idea may be
formed of the amount by Mr. Astor's return
of his income last year, which was $1,300,-
000. This lease being about to expire, the
question of their renewal is, of
course, one of interest, not only to the
Church find Mr. Astor,but to a large number
of business jnen. It is said a Rector lately met
Mr. Astor in the Street, and, naturally enough,
the conversaion turned upon the past expiring
leases. Says the Rector “you go regularly
now to Trinity ?” “Oh, yes,’’ answered Mr.
Astor, very quietly, as is his usual manner.
“I know all about it, Mr. Astor,” says the
parson, with the slightest twincle in his eyes.
“You know all about it ? Well what about
it—what do you know ?” inquired Mr. As
tor, with more than usual Interest. “Yes, I
know," responded the parson smiling as
though he thought he had a key which could
open a grCht mystery, “I go there, doctor,"
said Mr. Astor, “because my wife is fond ot
music.” “Ah ! those leases ! those leases,
Mr. Astor the white-haired
parson, as fie indulged in a chuckling laugh,
which betrayed inexorable skepticism and
egotistic mirth. The sum which Astor pays
the church is $269 per anuum, and he re
ceives as rental, # at the lowest estimate $168,-
00U. Here is a per centage upon an invest
ment nevir yet reached even by our gold
mines or petroleum wells. The corporation
of Trinity* are noted for their inexorable fix
edness as to the price of their rents No in
ducement or reason ever yet was known to
cause them to reduce a rent when once fixed.
Their property, like wine, they think; im
proves in value by age. The property of the
church when, by expiration of leases, it re
verts back to the church will be worth, it is
estimated, $20,000,000.

plaint to be made of all who violate the or
ders regulating the Market. An efficient
Police force is kept in the Market at all
hours for the protectiou of all.
Aruival of Carts from the ConNTRT.—
Yesterday and this morning, large number
of carts, about two hundred and fifty, from
the country, arriyed at the market. These
carts brought to market cotton, poultry, eggs,
dried beef and all kinds of produce raised in
the neighboring counties. The peaches thus
jar received, are for the most part from
Bulloch county and are of infer
ior quality, being very small. Soft peaches
are uearly worthless this season from tbe
effects of the worm. Press peaches are free
from the worm, and the trees bearing them
are in a healthy condition.
The Fortifications on W hirmarsh Island.
—The extensive Confederate works on Whit
marsh Island, erected early in the war for
the defence of Wilmington river and the
creeks adjacent to Whitmarsh Island, are be
ing dismantled in obedience to orders from
Washington, under the supervision of Ueut'
W. H. Walrath, A. O, O. The ordnance
from these works will be taken to Hilton
Head, as will also that from Fort Jackson,
Naval Battery, Battery Lawton and Battery
Lee, which arc to be immediately dismantled
by Lieut. Walrath.
Robberies. —We learn from good author
ity that the plantation of Gen. George Paul
Harrison, Sen., at Monteitb, in this county,
on the line of the Charleston and Savannah
Railroad, has for the past week been robbed
almost daily; also several carts of country
men coming to market Lave been stopped
and robbed, near Monteitb. It is to be
hoped that suefi acts of highway outrage will
speedily be stopped and the guilty parties
brought to punishment.
