Several propp feitions of this kipd could ,be stated all of w hich might bo true in some one or more aspects; but it certainly -cannot be denied that there -is eahse of thankfulness to somebody or something for the liberation of two Southern States. Here, then, is i-omrooo grciupd on which all our brothers of the quill and scisors may meet and shake hands with perfect cordiality.

The Cabinet wrestled alt day yesterday widi the Louisiana Collectorship; The prize nearly went to Gen. 'Anderson, the President and Secretary Sherman, both, desiring his appointment. His name was withdrawn at his own lequcst. . Gen. Bussy has the heaviest mercantile recommendations, but the Cabinet fears he would be weak before the Senate on account of recent financial misfortunes. McMillan has the highest political re commendations, but the gossip about his owij anxiety to get into the Nichoils Legis lature, is against him. ' No conclusion reached. Judge King, one of the Kellogg-Packard Supreme Court Judges, is in the eld this morning. Tbis Cnstom House will bring the new poliry before the Senate very early in the session, and the nominee must be one whoso political, social and firiaucial char acter, and personal apearancc cannot le assailed by the disaffected Republican Senators.

The most interesting contest is progress ing over the New Orleans naval office. Piuchback and Antoine are the chief con testants, and may be said to represent the rivalry among the cohered element. The presence here of several prominent colored men from "Loaisiana, "is to advise the appointments upon the basis of the President's Southern' iolicy, and with a view to a more commendable and dissent iuating recognition of colored men. It is given out that . the President de sires Congress to fully discuss his South ern policy during the ejttra session.

The impending danger had steeled the hearts of some to roeet Whatever, fate, awaited them, but ethers broke down completely ; some re cei ved their dismiiaals with a sort ef stony desimir, while other with loud cries and sobs bewailed their fate. .Some ffw.put 1 t 1 tt t , on a defiant air and yp wed, toltsv revepge Irti. imnsrtM ftini: f)n vimun 1 ------ rrTrr-T- y- ; will make you suffer for this unjust ; act."

Strong men, too, gave way to their feelings as they thought of the dear oucs at home, whom they would now be unable te assist. One lady took the pen to sign her name but nearly fainted, and had to get a few minutes rest and composure before she could accomplish the act.

The proclamation of war by the Czar of Russia gives special iuterest, says the Baltimore Sun, to the question of the effect it will have on the grain and pro vision markets of the United States. Limiting the question at this time to grain and flour, apd to the needs of England es pecially she being the principal importer of bread fct ufts it is of interest to know what her yearly requirements are and from what countries she draws her -supplies. The value of the imiMuts of corn (grain) and flour into Englaud during the year 1:75 amounted to 53,08G,C91 sterl ing or, computed in our currency, to $265,433,455. For the jwist thirty years this annual demand, for breadstuffs es pecially, in excess of home production, has steadily and heavily increased. In 1845 the imports were 17 lb her head. In 1855 they rose to 50 It, in 18G5 to 03 lbs and in 1875 to 1!JG lbs. Of the countries from which the supplies are drawn the Uni- ed States stand at the head of the li.st, and next Russia. If we break into detail the British imports of corn and flour, which cost the sum of over fiftv-three millions of pounds sterling in 1875. we find them derived from the following sources: . United States.. , l.,OI2.fi74 Russia . . 9,176,373 German v 7. 4,(S33,210 France 3,217,239 Canady 3, 124 ,05(1 Turkey 2,909,014 Sweden (imts) 1,408,(75 Denmark l,2a,809 Austria bt7,044 All other sources T 7,4(W,(J(d Tot.tl value 1,0)1 It will le observe! tlutt more than one- half of the total stippliesof gram and flotir imported into England come from, the Unitel States and UuMn. Of the quanti ty shipped by the latter country to Eng land 85tj,40d cwt. from the ports of the Black Sen. To thew Turkey added some 6,000,000 cwt. more. Turkey, controlling the ontlet of the Mack Sea, and holding by her fortresses the linef the Danube, whatever surplus graiu of last year's crop remains at this time along the Russian chores of the Black Sea is now, by the formal declaration of war, precluded from reaching the England market, wlii.st the orpins grain of Turkey in the conn tries bordering on her southern ports will Probably be needed to supply her armies t. - l l 1 I I 1 Id IIIC lieiu. Araumui); iiic arw iir iwttf Ized aud fought between Russia and Tur key, the supplies of grain drawn from the Black Sea tMirts ana irota Southern i ur- key will be the measure of the additional requirements of England for the corn and wheat and flour ot the United Mates u the war should continue more than a few months. The New York TTorM says tlie recent advance in wheat aud rlour has rare ly been equalled iu extent, rapidity and the firmness with which it has beeu maintained. It is but a few days since No. 2 spring sold at $1.401.4j, which yesterday sold at $l'.!251.85 a cleat Advance of 40 cents. 1 Ins is etiual to $2 a barm for rlour, and we according lv find that common shipping extras. wliich quite recently were unsalable at 66 ner barrel, are now held at $3. But in the finer qualities the advance is even more decided. Choice white wheat sold yesterday at $2.20 per bushel for which tflJLM was the price accepted in March ; aud as a matter of course the better grades of baker' and family brand of flour, which but the other day were pressed at $7 to $9 per liarrel, are now held at $10 ill. This advance, generally attributed to the EurojK an war, is due not less to the small vend of our last crop of wheat and the d inger that California will have a short crop this season. It will be hard ly credited that wholesale prices of Hour aud wheat of the common and medium quali ties are just about double those current last Augustand if there be any consider ble supplies ot wheat in the hands of farm ers they must be brought forward.
