Gibson, of Loaisville, endorsed by the Gov

urgent necessities for the encouragement of
immigration in order to develop the great

By Mr. Waugh A bill to repeal the first

By Mr. Davis A bill to amend section

"Guardians and Wards."

By Mr. Kenan A bill to prevent the sac

By Mr. Williams of Martin A bill to give
" 7.V sole el. '1 hat it is the t n ;e of this llouse,
that the article iri!efil l.v the Congress of the
United States as an ametidment to tho Constitu
tion of tho tsame known :is the Howard Amend
mi;i:t. :uul AnicUs llrh, t-hoiill bo ratitiodby the
I Ueii r.,1 As.-i'u biv of Auilii Carolina, now in ses
sion.
Mr. Logan said that this amendment had
been very fully discussed before the peo
pie; tnat Congress would meet on Monday
next, and should be informed what we in
tended to do in the premises. After tra
cing the history of the Constitution from
its foundation to the present time, advert
ing to the several amendments heretofore
adopted, he said that the Constitution was
professedly the work of the people. He
subsequently defined the term "people"
by the term "everybody." He argued that
the 1st section of the Howard Amendment
did not differ from the Constitution of the
United States as it now exists.
Mr. Waugh asked If such was the case,
what, then, was the necessity of adopting
it ? Mr. Logan declined answering the
question for the present, and said that the
gentleman who "troubled him" would
have ample opportunity of participating in
the discussion. He denied that this sec
tion contained the doctrine of negro equal
ity, any more than the existing Constitution
did.
He wanted the Howard amendment be
cause he was opposed to negro equality.
It gave the States the power to abridge the
rights of any of their male citizens, but left
this matter wholly to their option, as ex
pressed by their representatives.
The adoption of this amendment, and
the election of representatives "who" could
take the "test oath," would, ho said, se
cure the admission of the State, as such
action had already secured the admission
of Tennessee. The main difficulty in the
whole matter, was, in his opinion, this :
Leaders of the rebellion believed that un
der it they can never get pardon or hold
office. It was in the power of the Southern
States to send eighty-one members to Con
gressmore than a third of the whole num
ber and it required a two-thirds vote to
pass any act over the President's veto. We
are now, he said, without representation,
and yet refused to send representatives to
protect our interests.
He called for the yeas and nays on the
resolution.
Mr. Waugh, moved its reference to the
joint committee on the Constitutional Amend
ment. Mr. Scoggin asked the yeas and nays on
the question of reference.
They were taken as follows, the motion
to refer prevailing :

The Arrest of Ortega. Endorsed Ortega's
Schemes The late Extraordinary Cabi
net Meeting The jH'rtueh Troops in Mex
ico, etc.
Special Dispatch to the Bahniore Sun.
Washington, Nov. 23 In order to clear up
the doubts and the cause of the arrest of the
Mexican General Ortega, and the authoritv
upon which it was made. I am enabled to
say that General Sheridan acted upon his own
aiotion in ordering the arrest of Ortega and
his partv. Gen. Sheridan has communicated the
particulars of the arrest, and the reasons that in
duced his action, and the government approves
his course. It atmears that Ortecra. in theonin
ion of Gen. Sheridan, was violating our neutrality
laws : that he is supported in ilexico by a very
small party of British and French merchants, these
being really the only adherents or supporters ot
Ortega.
In Northern Mexico the Mexican or native pop
ulation almost unanimously support Juarez. Or
tega contemplated a coup d'etat, and had no sup
porters except the former adherents cf Maximil-
V - J? il A A . 1 11 . 1 Al .
ian. it is lurmer siaieu mai tne ooject tne
French and English merchants was to control the
valuable trade in Northern Mexico, and prevent
American mercnants iron: monopolizing the same.
Prior to the arrest of Ortega affairs were in a dis
turbed condition, but now there is contidence and
tranquility upon the Uio Grande.
Since the special meeting of the Cabinet yes
terday afternoon there has been the greatest in
terest manifested as to the purpose of this extra
ordinary convening of that dody, and various
speculations have been sent off to the Northern
press on the subject. I can state positively that
the Cabinet was called together to consider our
foreign relations. In this connection it may be
stated that it is known that the French govern
ment has declared its purpose to disregard the
arrangement for the withdrawal of the first de
tachment of French troops from Mexico during
this month, as agreed upon between Mr. Seward
and De L'Hujs.
The French Empercr has notified our govern
ment that he cannot effect the withdrawal of
the troops until next spring, when he proposes to
embirk the entire force at once. In view of the
failure of Napoleon to comply witn his agreement
to withdraw one portion of t hese troops, and in
asmuch as the notification of this forfeiture of the
agreement comes at thin late day, our government
is not disposed to put full confidence in tho fur
ther promises of the Fre ich Emperor. There is
reason for believing that vhis mattc-r was the im
mediate cause of the Cabinet meeting yesterday,
and that to-day the subject was again considered
in the regular session. Gen. Grant being present
by request of tin; President.
It is intimated in official circles that instructions
have been sent to our Minister in France to de
mand the immediate withdrawal of the French
troops from Mexico. Data.
Panic in "Wall Stkeet. Things have a
blue look on " the street," it. will be seen

ing governments, are coming down with it

and other markets, there is likewise great
excitement, with reports of numerous fail

We cheerfully lay befoie our readers the
following from the American Parmer for
November, 1SGG:
A FIVE FIELD SYSl'E.M.
"Notwithstanding what we have s-,u.iu of
the profitable experience of those who have
practiced the four-field system with clover,
we should be tempted to guard against any
risk of ultimate failure by change in one
point. We should make the lour fields
live, and sowing timothy seed with the clo
ver, take a crop of timothy hay, when we
now take wheat, and have this follow im
mediately after the timothy. The year de-
voted to clover might, in this case, be a
year of pasturage, and thus allow a very
considerable addition to the stock. This
stock would, advantageously, consume the
large quantity of straw and corn fodder,
otherwise entirely lost except for manure,
and thus bring a large extra item of profit.
If to this stock the corn be fed as it should
be, the manure would be greatly increased
in value, and the fertility of the soil pro
portionately improved.
The only objections that can be made to
this change would be that the additional
year given to grass might allow the native
grasses to multiply to the prejudice of the
clover; aud that so old a sod might be un
suitable to the growth of wheat. These
would be very material objections should j
they be realized in practice. The whole
profit of the system is based upon the suc
cess of the clover, and that must be made
secure at any rate, and the wheat crop on
the clover fallow is the chief money crop,
and deserves to be especially regarded.
As to the effect upon the clover, we
think that a well-set sod of clover and tim
othy would, during two years, so conifdete
ly hold possession of the ground as to ex
clude entirelv all intruders, and that the
intermediate workings between these and
the next sowing would be sufficient to yiut
the ground in a good state of preparation.
As regards the wheat, assuming, as Suid
above, that the clover and timothy will ex
clude native grasses which might prove
hurtful to it ; and being well assured that
the sod of timothy which would prevail
when we break the ground for wheat, is
very congenial to that crop, we apprehend
nothing on this score, lt is said, indeed,
to make a preparation for wheat, only in
ferior to clover, and, in this case, the good
effects of the clover, growing of the previ
ous year are added to the good qualities of
the timothy sod.
Such a sod, it has been asserted, is espe
cially advantageous on lands liable to heav
ing under the influence of frost. Wheat is
said to be under no circumstances so se
cure against " winter-killing." No soil in
the world is so uncertain as that of the prai
rie on account of winter-killing. Yet the
early settler raises wheat on the original
tough sward with very uniform success ; so
it is maintained that the sod of timothy, is,
in this respect, very favorable to wheat.
under the influence of these opinions we
should be tempted to seek the advantages
offered by the extra grass crop, and make
at least a fair trial of five fields instead of
four."

Toronto, C. W., Nov. 27 P. M.
No decision has been given in the Court of
Queen's Bench or Common Fleas as to granting the
rule for new trials, as applied for by the counsel
for the Fenians under sentence of death.
It is rumored that a heavy concentration of
troops in this city, is about to commence m view
of the near approach of the 13th December, the
dav fixed for tho execution of the Fenians.
A young man narae Charles Koss, a far
mer, only 21 years of age, was arrested in
Cincinnati on Sunday, charged with shoot
ing, with intent to kill, Bishop Rosencrans,
of the Catholic Church. Some six months
since Bishop Rosencrans, while climbing on
foot, after dark, a hill leading up from
Storrs Township, to visit one of the Catho
lic institutions, was attacked by a party of
ruffians, one of whom shot him in the leg
with a pistol, inflicting a slight wound. The
Bishop was fortunate enough to make his
escape by running rapidly down the hill.
An investigrtion into the affair led to a strong
suspicion of this Charles Ross as the perpe
trator of the outrage, but before he could
be arrested he left the city.
A remarkable forgery case has occurred
in New York. William A. Marsh, a boy
sixteen years of age, on Thursday forged
the name of James A. Dorman to a check
for 820,000 on the Sixth National Bank and
presented it. The clerk would have paid
it, as he believed the signature to be genu
ine, but Mr. Dorman did not have that
amont in bank, and becoming suspicious,
he sent for a detective. The boy when ar
rested confessed to the forgery and was
committed for trial.
The time during which the Rev. George
W. Laughorn was appointed to take charge
of the Episcopal Methodist Church in this
city having expired, that gentleman last
night bid adieu to his congregation, prepar
atory to leaving for Norfolk, to attend the
Annual Conference of his church. The
property of the E. M. Church in this city
belongs to the Baltimore Conference of
that Church, and there can be no regular
appointment to fill the vacancy occasioned
by Mr. Langhorne's departure until the
meeting of that Conference. It is, howev
er, earnestly hoped that the Virginia Con
ference will transfer Mr Languorne to the
Baltimore Conference, and that that Con
ference will appoint him pastor of the
church in this city, and that Bishop Pierce
will assign him to this station until the
meetiuer of that Conference. When Mr.
Langhorne took charge, a year ago, of the
church in this city, its members numbered
one hundred and seventy -nine. He leaves
it with three hundred and eighty-one names
upon its rolls, and since its erection, no
abler or more beloved pastor has ever filled
its pulpit. Alex. Gazette.

REVIEW OF THE WILMINGTON MAR-
kcts for tlie "Week ending "Wednesday
Nov. 2S, 18GG.
During the week just ended, the market has
been in an unsettled state for all descriptions of
country produce. Tho adverse news from the
Northern markets has had the effect to almost
check transactions, and prices of most articles
show a considerable decline on former quotations.
In the leading articles of Groceries and Provisions
the business done has boen limited, as buyers gen
erally are operating carefully, owing to the con
tinued decline in prices in tho Northern markets,
and the sales have been mostly in tho small way.
In the present condition of affairs, it is almost im
possible to give correct quotations, as they vary
more or less each day. We refer to our table for
the ruling prices at the timo of closing our en
quiries, and below we give a review of such tran
sactions as have taken place during the week.
Tuhpentine Since the close of our review on
Thursday last the market has been in rather an
unsettled condition, and notwithstanding the mea
gre receipts, the price has declined 52 cents on
hard, and 1 1 05 on soft closiag quiet at $ 05 for
virgin and yellow dip, and $2 0'2J for hard y 280
IBs. The arrivals nave Dten unusually small, ana
the sales comprise only bbls., as follows :
Bbls. Virgin and Yellow Dip. Hard.
Friday 112 $5 10 $2 55
Saturday,.. 180 5 00 2 50
Tuesday, ..12o 4 3U 'I 13
Wed'sday.. 60 4 05 2 02
Spirits Tcrpeniink The market during the
past week has betn characterized by extreme dull
ness, and as will be seen from our table of sales
below the price is fully 4 cents lower than quoted
in our last. There has been but little disposition
on the part of buyers to operate, and the transac
tions have been confined to small lots the mar
ket closing quiet on Wednesday at GO cents. The
sales are as follows :
Fridav 50 bbls. at C6 cents y gallon.
Saturday ..111 " " 66, G7G3 "
Monday.... 40 " " 67 "
Tuesday ... 16 " " 66
Eosis. Under the advices received from the
Northern markets this article has been in an un
settled condition throughout the week just ended,
and the transactions have been confined to small
parcels. Buyers generally are unwilling to ope
rate unless at lower figures, which sellers are not
disposed to accede to at present, and consequent
ly the market closes in active. There is only a
small stock remaining unsold in receivers hands,
and the receipts both by river and railroad have
been light. The sales are p. follows : 477 bbls.
Common and No. 2 at $4, aud 174 bbls. No. 1 at
$5, $ 6$7.
Tar. We have no change to report in the mar
ket for this article. The receipts for the week are
75IJ bbls. which has been taken by shippers at
$1 75 y bbls.
Bt-Ei" Cattle Are in moJcrate supply, and there
is only a limited enquiry for butchering purposes.
We quote on the hoof at prices ranging from 8 to
11 cents y lb., net, latter figure for prime quality.
For Sheep there is no demand, aud we omit quo
tations. Barbels. No empty spirit barrels worthy of re
port, have been received for some weeks past,
but there is a full supply of former arrivals re
maining in dealer's hands, and there is little or
no enquiry. We quote only small sales at $3 50
4 for second hand, and $4 2i$4 75 each for new,
as in quantity and quality.
Beeswax Is in fair demand, and very little
being brought to market. We quote at 3233
cents y lb.
Cokn Meal. The supply on market is light, but
sufficient lor present demand. We quote in the
small way from the granaries at fi 50$1 CO y
bushel.
Cotton There is no change of importance to
report in the market for this article as regards
prices. There was some little activity in the mar
ket on Monday and a shade advance was obtained,
but further advices caused a dull feeling and the
advance above noted was subsequently lust. The
sales comprise only small parcels (about 70 bales;
at 30 3132 cents for middling closing at 31
cents, with holders generally asking higher fig
ures. Egos Are selling from carts at 40 cents y
dozen.
Floub The market continues to be very well
supplied with Northern brands, and rules exceed
ingly quiet, as there is merely a retail demand.
We quote in the small way from store at prices
ranging from $y to $0 50 for fine, $10$11 50 for
superfine, and $1317 y bbl. for family, (Wil
mington inspection. ) The supply of State brands
is very light, and we quote from store in small
lots at $17 for superfine and $17 60 for family.
Fish Only one small lot of Mullets received,
and fold from wharf at $9 for pine, and $11 for
oak bbls.

$S3 ; Baugh's Raw Bone Phosphate, $68 ; Snow
den's Ammoniated Potash Phosphate, $6o y ton.
Gkain. tfor Corn there ia a moderate enquiry,
and the market rules steady. Owing to the mea
gre quantity being received here, the supply on
market has become very low, and is barely ade
quate for present wants. Only about 400 ) bushels
h v j been received by dealers since our last review,
of which we quote small sales from store and

Inspired with patriotic zeal and love of country,
he volunteered in the 2d 8. C. Reg't (Kershaw's)
in April 'CI. was in the ever memorable battles of
Bull Run, Manassas, Dranesvillo aud Williams
burg. His regiment was the rear guard in the fa
mous retreat from Manassas to Orange Court
House, aud was also van guard in the retreat from
Yorktown. In these last trying marches he fell a
victim of that dreadful scourge of the soldier,
Diarrhoea, of which he finally died. It may be a
consolation to his friends to know ; that though
among strangers he had every attention that skill
and kindness 5vuld dictate, in this institution, and
the Sisters of Mercy watched over his dying couch
like Guardian Angels.
His funeral took place on yesterday from St.
Thomas' Church (Catholic,) thence to Oakdale
Cemetery.
