The United States Court for this District will commence here to-morrow. J udge Bond who is to preside arrived this evening. In tense interest is felt in the proceedings of the term from the fact that 2q0 well known citizens of the State have been arrested and will be tried for alleged violations of elec tion laws. i The prosecutions are brought under section 5,522, 5,520, 5,518, 1,515, and 1,511 of the revised statutes of the United States, and are filed mainly by informa tions instead of bills of indictment. The United States Attorney, aud his assistant, E. W. Mackey; the defeated candidate for Congress from this District, assertion that they propose to apply the test oath to all jurors creates much uneasiness as the ju ries already drawn contain but few white men and none who can take oath. If test - , oaths be applied juries will probably con : . fcist exclusively of negroes. .

The Observer says advices froni Paris stat.e that the Pouyer Quortierse Atlantic Cable Company will on April tbeTSth, open books for subscrip tions for 40,000 shares of 500 francs each, at 2 j premium. As the nominal capital of the company; provides for 82,000 shares, the present allotment, apparently restricts th? scheme to a single cable from Brest to New York, instead of two, as originally intended. The steamer Kangaroo with part of the cable to be laid bctweeu Natal and Aden, will leave Thames to-morow I for Natal, via., the Suez canal. The ;Na I tal and Zarsihar section will be open for business in July. This will place South Africa within a few weeks on communica tion with London.

The strike of the Preston weavers, against the introduction of the Blackburn standard list of wages, is now at an end, the operatives submitting under protest. A Times correspondent at Rome says now that the wild rumors as to the object of Garibaldi's visit' to. Home have proved groundless, it is asserted that he has come to die in the city to attain which for Italy all his strivings were directed. Ilis'friends distinctly assert that politics are wholly unconnected with his going to Rome, lie found that his health was not improving at Caprera. and thought the mineral springs near Civita V-eccha might benefit his gout. Garibaldi, replying to theSyndic, who visited hfm on his arrival, said he did not himself know the reason of his visit. A more pathetic scene than that which oc curred on Garibaldi's arrrival at the rail way station has seldom been beheld. Shuts were raised as the train entered the rail Way statio'n, but they were speedily si lenced by the circulation of a report that the General was ill. He was carried from the train on a mattress on a large litter. He lay extended and motionless, with eyes closed and a red handkerchief bound around his head. It looked as though a corpse was being carried in state. It was found impossible to move him from the litter, which was placed -on an open carriage and driven, accompanied, by a mournfully silent crowd, to the house of his son, Menottx Garibaldi. -It was so impossible to move the General that at Civita Vecchia a portion of the side of the railway saloon had to be cut away to admit his litter A dispatch from Rome to .the Daily Neics says : "Garibaldi slept well Satur- j day night. His .doctor thinks he will be able to leave his bed within a week." At the Sillott dock- entrance the wall has fallen dotwn, and it will be impossible for vessels tohlock, here for several months. The Vessels iu dock, will befunable Jo leave until the obstructions are removed. Although a "general strike has been averted'to by the acceptance by 10,000 men of the masters terms, the decision of two-thirds of the" pitmen at Durham, to strike against the reduction will have the effect of stopping close on ninety pits" and throwing idle 25.000 hewers, and should the struggle continue more than four or five days other industries closely connected with the coal trade will be paralysed. Two managers of iron works and other employ ers oflaborj anticipated .the coming strug gle a fort-night ago by placing their hands under notice. Several large concerns will be brought to a stand still in the course of a week, "unless the owners or pitmen give way. At Consett Iron "Works where from 1,200 to 1,400 tons ship plates .are made every week for Clyde, the work will have to be suspended. The whole number of pitmen employed at their eight or nine colleries are among those on the strike. A Berlin dispatch to the Globe says: "Porte refuses the Russian proposals rela tive to the occupation of Eastern Roume Ha and insists upon the execution of the treaty of Berlin." A "Constantinople dispatch to the Times dated Sunday, says there seems to" be. a pause in the negotiations for a mixed oc cupation of Eastern Roumelia. The sub ject is to be considered in the Council of Ministers on Monday. It has been sug gested here that instead of each Power sending a contingent, one of .them might send all the troops and the other bear the expense, but no official proposal has yet been made in this sense. Russia will not probably object to the Turks occupying Bourjas. but is not dis posed to permit a Turkish occupation of lchiinan, as the, troops, therefore, would have to tra verse a part of 'Eastern Rou melia and Bulgaria, and the population might resist. Ampng the numerous telegrams received from the Cape Of Good llp'pe, mere is no confirmation of the Daily News1 special dispatch, reporting that an insurrection has broken out in the Transvaal, presum ably among the Boers. The statement is improbable. Cario, April 7.

The petition further sets forth; that in obedience to and by authority of a process issued from the Clerks office' of said Dis trict court, aud styled a bench warrant Judge Cole3 was arrested on the 13th of March by an United States Deputy Mar shall and taken into custody. The piti tion declares that the district court had and has 'no jurisdiction of the matters charged against judge Coles in the indict ment that they constitute no offence. pun ishable in the-said District court and that that the finding of the indictment . and donseouent arrestjani? imprisonment of the said J. D. Coles are unwarranted by the Constitution of tlte United States Or by any law maae in pursuance thereof, and are not only in violation of the rights of the prisoner, but are in violation also of the sovereign rights of the State of Tir ginia, whose Judicial officer he is, and to whom" alone he can be held accountable for his acts or omisssons as such officer. The petition cfoses with the declaration that it is proper and necessary that the said J. D. Cole's, be discharged from the illegal custody. in which he is now held for trial, and left free to perform his duties without the interference ontthe part of theDistrict Court of the United States, or any one acting under its authority. The petition of Judge Coles sets forth some . facts, and prays that the records of. the proceeding of the District Court be brought here by cer tiorari, and a writ of habeas corpus "be issued to the marshal in order that he, and the reasons of his arrest and detention may be brought before .the court. , Secretary Sherman gave New York an official business.

Simon Mussina, of Galveston, was to day admitted to practise in this court. 1 he. following is turnisued bv the Comp troller of the currency : The Comptroller of the currency has received from the Bank Examiner in Geor gia, a specimen of the new four per cent, bonds recently issued by that State. They are in size aud color, similar to the Green- brcks, and in other respects they are a bond with interest payable six year3 after date, with six annual coupons amounting to twenty cents each, upon the right end of the note. The Comptroller in his report for 1S72 and 1873, called the attention of Congress to the issne of the certificates of the de nomination of five dollars bv the State of Alabama, which were receivable in pay ment of taxes and all dues to the fetate. The question is likely to arise whether these bonds are bills of credit or not. The Comptroller in his report ot 1S72, said the Constitution of the United States provides that no State shall emit bills of credit, and it has been held by the Supreme Coort of the United 8tates. in the famous case of Boscoe vs. The Bapk of Kentucky, that a rate of circulation, "issued by a State, in volving the faith of the State and designed to circulate a money on the credit of the State in the ordinary cause cf business," is bill of credit. Qther decisions of the Supreme Court, hold that certificates is sued by a State in sums not exceeding ten dollars, not less than fifty cents receivable m payment of taxes the faith and credit of the State being pledged for their re demption, are bills of credit within the prohibition of the Constitution.

World special of the 4th: Apart from the brilliant, logical and very wise speech of Mr. Blackburn, to which no report can do justice, the prominent feature of the debate of yesterday was the real ignorance of the issues involved or the ignorance feigned for party purposes which was dis played by Mr. Robeson. The tendency of opinion nere is that Mr. Kobeson is really sincere and really ignorant, inas much as he showed the same sort of ignor ance a few "days ago in dealing with the same subject. An acute, ;obsorver of the debate remarked yesterday . that the supe riority of the Democrats, ; and especialy of the Southern Democrats,Jin the pending discussionJcomes of the fict that Repub licans, and especially those who have been in public offi$e"since 1861, have been com pelled to think of anything but a numeri cal majority; whereas, Democrats have been constantly compelled to study, and take their stand upon the accepted prin ciples of the common law and of con stitutional law.
