Director Delmar, of the Statistical Bureau, in reply to the communication from General Butler, has given some interesting financial statistics, going to prove that the civilization of the world depends in a great measure upon the character and quantity of its circu lating medium. He traces the amount of coinage from the Augustan Age, A. D. 14, when it amounted to $358,000, to the pres ent time, and shows that from the year named the amount of coin in circulation gradually diminished until A. D. 806, when it touched the lowest" figures, $33,674,256 It then commenced rising, but did not re cover itself until the beginning of the nine teenth century. Its marked increase was in the.year l,600, when the mines of Potosi were opened, which marked the closing of the Dark Ages. From the commencement of the ninth to the close of the fifteenth cen tury the credit system became established in Europe. : The leading of money on, interest during most of this period was deemed odi ous, and the traffic fell entirely into the bands of the Jews, who becoming greatly enriched by it, were frequently plundered. The taking of interest seemes first to have been regulated in Venice, in the twelfth century, when the legal rate was 'four per cent., while in France it was forty-eight per cent , and controlled by a tew Jews. The long monetary dearth during the centuries named led to the social degradation which marked the Dark Ages, and which culmi nated in the system of feudal laws from which even, yet modern civilization has fail ed to entirely free itself. In 1157 the Bank of Venice was founded, that of Geneva in 1345, and of Bercelona in 1401. Between this time and that when the Bank of Amster dam wos founded, A. D. 1607, occured the influx of the precious metals from America. The present amount of coin in Europe and America he estimates at$2,800,000,000. of wnicn $3,5UU,ipo,000 are in gold. - The Successor of Bishnp Hopkins. 1 he Providence (R. I.) Herald says that by the death of Bishop r Hopkins, the place of presiding Disnop m the Protestant Episco pal Church of the United States now be longs to the Right Rev. Benjamin Bos worth Smith, D. D4 of Kentucky. 7 Both he and Bishop Mcllvame of Ohio, were consecrated at the same time'with Bishop Hopkins, Oc- toDer di, iod, but the consecration o Bishop Smith was second in the services o the occasion, and he js consequently next in the order ot his succession. He resides at Frankfort, in Kentucky. He is a native ot Rhode Island, having been born at Bristol in 1794. and graduated at Brown University, In the class of 3I8I6. He studied theology with Bishop Giswold, who then resided at Bristol, and was ordained deacon in 1818, and prebyter in 1819. He was for some years setled ' in Middlebury, Vermont, and afterwards in Virginia, whence he reuloved to Kentucky. Tne Herald says he is a man of great excellence of character, and belongs to he Evangelical or Low Church party-, . Wc learn that it is in contemplation to start a new weekly paper in this city, to be printed m the French Language. It will be devote to politics, literature, and general news, and will advocate ' the principles of the , Republican party. It is intended to make a national organ to the French Repub licans, of the United States. Our total French-speaking population, ' including Swiss, Belgians, and Canadians, numbers about a million and a half, and is. of ! constantly increasing. ! The importance to the Republican cause cjf a good journal, pub lished at the Capital, embracing all thl.pn rent political news, and discussing the lead- p;nranAt;: ix : r.iL j . ugiwuutai tupius ui xue.uay, win, tnerefore, be easily appreciated The paper will be conducted by a gentleman of fine abilities and large experience as a journalist, and the enterprise has the approval of many prom- inent gentlemen, French and American. w ashington GhronicUi . A wag belonging to the Atlanta bar pro pounded the following coundrum at the county court recently : "Why as a child hooked and killed bv a cow like mmi : lady's dress F In vain did the iudffe and officers of the court endeaver to f solve it With a roguish twinkle of the eye he said "Because it's gored to death." v WASHINGTON ITEEIS - The return' of : Secretary.' Stanton to the War Department t wa the f subject ot com' ment everywhere throughout the city yester day, a' At the White House there were omi-1 nous flit tings about of important personages, who were at different times during the day closeted with the ' President Besides mem1 bcrs ot the Cabinet General Grant, and Lieu tenant General Sherman, several well known Senators called, and ' at a r late hour last evening members of the Cabinet were still at the White HouscHilt is quite evident to the most casual observer that the President is for once in a dilemna. . General Grants prompt obedience to law, by vacating the office of Secretary of War, which he had held ad interim, staggers and bewilders him,' and he, does; not yet know what to uo. No military order was issued yesterday I through General Grant either by the Presi- dent or Secretary of War. -i At the War Department there were nuj merous calls by men of position and influence. Secretary Stanton received ' all callers with much cordiality, . add the l business of the office was transacted as of yore. A number of Congressmen and .f several' prominent cit izens called and have private interviews with. the Secretary during the day. ;- t ' At army headquarters there was.' nothing to interrupt the usual routine of - business. The allegation that General Grant has acted in bad faith; with the President by surren dering the position he occupied) Mr. Stan ton so promptly, is most emphatically denied The commanding general doubtless does not feel like" being held responsible for the President's oversleeping himself. In relation to the interviews on Saturday, General Grant says he did say to the President that he had not changed his mind, but at the same time f i?ave the President distinctlv to understand 1 Senate an official notification that that body did not concur in th3 reasons given by the President for Mr.. Stanton's removal, he would feel bound, under the tenure of office bill, to at once withdraw from the War De partment, and cease his of War ab interim. duties as Secretary It was- generally understood yesterday that MrM Stanton, following the advice of friends, will not resign but willfretain pos session of the office until legally removed, j The disbursing clerk of the War Depart ment denies the statement made irk an even ing paper, onTuesday, that Mr. Stanton had drawn his pay for the time he Was suspend ed from office. On the contrary, Mr. Stan ton does not consider himself entitled to pay for that period under the tenure1 of office act, which is expiicet on this point. General Butler will get back from Rich mond to-motrow. T The city is crowded with politicians from ail over the country. The recent action of the Senate on Stanton, and of the House on the Supreme Court Judges bill, has inspired the Republicans with new vigor. The old politicians of the party seemed to be aroused, and are in great glee at the stand taken -by Congress against, Johnson's would-be defiant position. Just, belore the House adiourncd, the Speaker read; a note from General Grant enclosing a despatch, from General Meade, in which he says, "That unless the clause in the reconstruction bill compelling! voters to ate the test oath is repealed, it will be impossible for him to get persons to act in State omces made vacant by his removal. General Pope, recently commander of the Third Military District, who is now in this city, will leave here to-morrow or-j next day for Detroit, Michigan, where he has ; been ordered as commander ot the Department of tne ijaKes. The President stated to-day that he in tends to remove Commissioner of Internal Revenue Rollins at an early day. He has named no one for his successor as yet. A man named Wisewell and another named Perry are figuring for the place. The House spent near the ' whole day in debating the new reconstruction bill. Mr. Bingham, its author, made a long and able Speech in its favor. PHUNNYGRAMS. ! The Result of Curiosity. Anxiety to solve coundrums is not always a good thine.
