Special Despatch to The Chicaqo Tribune, COLORED DELEGATIONS. ‘Wasnixaroy, Nov. 22.—Two colored delega~ tions, representing respectively the States of Mississippi and Arkaneas, are nowin the city .purposing to visit the President, with a view to pronouncing against the frauds in certain dis~ tricts in their States, where they have 16cal inter- ests. Tho President's time is 5o much oceupied nowwithhismessage, and with consultations with members of Congress, Who are daily arriving in large numbers, that these delgatiors have not had an opportunity to air their cases. THE OfVIL SERVICE WAl continues in the Administration camp, and is discussed in bl tht papers here with great vigor, TFred, Douglass, in his Nakonal Era, is sevére in his condemnation of the Civil Service regula~ tions, especially in its educational qualifications and restrictions. He soys that the practical operations of the Civil Bervice Code that has been adopted for filling offices sre to place the enomics of the Republican party, and even avowed rebels, as they have now all been amnes- tied, on an equal. footing with hard- working Republicans, however competent and lonest, and thess, who have taken no interest in politics, but huve devotod their lives to_the " study of grammar, erithmetic, ond vwriting, stand & far botter chacce for the best offices under the Govern- ment,—like the Philadelphia Post Office,~—than the most experienced man, or the bravest and most patriotic and clear-headed soldier, who has become a littlo rusty in the tochnical learn- mi demanded by the ‘" Board of Brolen-Down Schoolmasters,” to whose iesponsible caprice is confided the appointment of oflicers in the Civil Service of the country. Tho Republican, to-day, has a double-leaded leader, inspired at the White House, the tenor of which is that, while there are practical do- fects in the system ss thus_far insugurated, the theory of Civil Service Reform which wag aimed at_by the Commissioners is correct. It says the Prosident has lately given the subject close consideration, and that he is in favor of abolishing the competitive system. It credits Lim with the desire of establishing a certain standard of efficiency, to which all who are can- didates must come up. The articla concludes with the assertion that the President means to ainnd by the reform inaugurated in Philadel- phia, whenever any occasion arises. n to Intarnal Revenue Gaugors, which forbids them charging whgic- sele liquor dealers and distillers with materials such _as paste, varnish, brushes, &c., nsed in suging, will soon be issued from thoe Internal evenue-Bureau. 'THE CHIOAGO-BOSTON RELIEF FUND. Outside of the correspondence now going on botween R. F. Morrick, Choirman of the Relief Committes, and Governor Cooke, relative to the unexpended balance of the Chicago relief fund, the Chronicie, to-day, fires the following parting shot on the subject : The hesitancy about psying over the funds, under the circumatancee, is not surprising. Tt P time been supposed that the suffering occasioned by the Chicago firo waa ctan end, Statements to that effect have found currency through the presa. Drafts upon the appropriation made by the District were honored from time to time, and would still be honored, if the use contemplated by the District was to be made of the funds, but the Relief Committee, or the people of Chicago, o few days since, gave evidence that the suf- fering occasioned by the fire was at an end, by voting t0 appropriate tho balance of tho relief fund in their hands for the benefit of the Boston sufferers. This waa all well enough, 80 far sa.tlhe fund in hand was concerned, perhaps, although there are those who ‘would incline to belleve that Chicago shonld have been chary about recels s larger relief fund than’ was likely| to " be But when Chicago wites away & fund ibat 18 not yet in her hands, and is not there because her time of nced had possed, it Jooks a litle strange. It ‘may be replied that thofund having been voted, it was absolutely the property of -Chicago as soon s the bonds were negotisted. If, however, it was withheld for payment as pecded, and the result proves it is not needed, the propricty of calling for its payment, that it may swell tho donstion of Chicago to Bos- ton, will be regarded as vory questionable. Our own impreasion is that Chicago should give notice to those who contributed to her necessities in a tima of need, that she requireg o further aid, and lot the balazice of the approprixtions made, za in this case, go Back iato the public Treasury by authority of law.” ANOTHER PEMOORATIO DAILY. Unawed by past ofperience, & new Democratic daily, to be called the Federal Democra, to take the place of tho Patriot, will be started in this city in a few weoks. A stock company is mow being formed. There are 2,000 s ot 850 each in the concerr, abont 500 of which, it is said, have been taken. ¥ _ REVENUE MARINE REPORT. _ According to the annual report of the opera- tions of the Revenue Marine, submitted to-day to the Secretary of the Treasury, it appoars that four revenue steam-vessels are now engaged on the Inkes, a force, it is stated, Which ia amply sufficient for all the needs of the service. The expenses of thid bureau for the year were 930,249, : The principal promoters of the Sap Domingo schemo, some of the names of whom have not been given fo the public, are here. They _say they do not _ expect the President to recommsnd any mensurs to Congress relative to the annexation of San Domingo; nor do they desire any action thereon at the coming session, but_thoy balieve that public sentiment has beon misdi 28 tho policy of spnexing San Domingo, and that & right judgment will be formed by the people ‘when they come to know all the facts, a8 they will during the coming year. The advocates of LYON & KING, Commission Merchants, 183 South Water-st annexation expect that such & resolution on this subject will have taken place by the expiration of the time, last named, that the acquisition of tho Island of San Domingo will be almost unani- mously demanded in this country. NATIONAL BANKING. The Comptroller of the Currency discusges at length, in his annual report, the evils indident to administering the usury law, contained in the currency act, and _concludes with a bold and earnest recommendation that Congress repeal every act on the statute books, which_prohibits the loaning of money by banks' or individuals at usurious rates. Mr. Enox says all such loans are easily avaded. Special Despatch to The Chicago Tribune. SENATOR HENDERSON A CANDIDATE FOR THE TREASURY BENCH. B Sr. Louts, Nov. 22.—A general and entirely voluntary movement is apparent among Repub- licans throughout the State, to urge the claims of Senator John B. Henderson upon the Presi- dent, for 2 seat in the Cabinet in case any chang- o8 are made in the spring. At the recont elec- tion, Mr. Henderson not only ranin advance of every other candidate on the Siate ticket, but olled as hrdianvnm 88 was given to Grant. i is regarded as a fair measure of his popt larity, while his fitnees for a Cabinet .position is considered to be even greater than for Governor, His long service a8 a momber of the Finance Committee in the Senate will be urged by his friends 28 a strong .reason for his_sppointment as Secretary of the Treasnry, shonld that port- folio be sent West. [To the Astociated Press.) ‘WasmraToN, Nov. 22.—Replying to an article in Frederick Donglass’ newspaper, the Washing- ton Daily Republican, which assumes to be the Administration organ, thus defines the Presi- dent’s position: *‘ Civil Servico rules are ex- perimental and fentative. Practical opera- tion demonstrates their imperfection, and imporant changes ore necessary. = The Preeident is entirely eatisfied that the com- petitive system should not be rigidly enforced, if, indeed, he is not convinced that it should be entirely abolished. Ho helieves that, first of all (other things being equal), the men who have supported the party shomld receive office in they will, in all cuses, Teceivo the preferencs.” Thers is 88 good reason to believe that this arti- cle is designed to instruct the President as that it represents his views. CURRENCY LOOK-DPS. Thers will be & bill introduced carly in the session, designed to prevent future lock-ups of the currency. THE NEW CODIFIOATION. An eminent legal gentleman, who has exom- ined sevoral titles of the new codification of the United States statutes, expresses an opinion thet Conieflswifl not adopt the revision in its present ghape: Commissioner Douglass claims that Senctor Sherman, of the Finance Committee, docs 1ot oppose but approves of his new Internal Revenuo bill ; that it is the simplest meens of consolidation, and that, under the existing law, consolidation is o, physical impossibility. THE SPEAETRSHIP. Speaker Blaine writes to a friend in this city that he has neither spoken nor written anything in favor of the revival of the old law anthorizing the Forty-third Congressto con- vene in March. 'The report that he has done so with o view to promote his chances for the Speakership is consequently ‘erroneous. May- nard is the avowed candidate for the Speaker- ship. AT THE WHITE HOUSE. The President received no visitors to-day, be- ing engaged upon his message. 'he Cabinet_met at noon, all the members present except Belkmap and Creswell. . Among the callers at the Executive Mansion waa Mrs, Woods, wife of the condemned man, to be eseouted on’ Wednesdsy for the murder of Mr. Cheéséman. She was sccom&unied by ber dsughter: They did rot succeed in obtaining an interview with the President: i THOSE OLD COTTON CLATMS. The timé for fihng claims for private cotton taken aftor Juno 30, 1865, has expired. The claims are so numerons and involve such large amounts, and raise such intricate questions of law, that it is likely the Secretary of the Treas- u.\gwfll ask Congress to relieve from con- sidering them, and refer the wholo matter to the Court of Claims. The lawyers favor this course. NEW YORK. Father Burke’s Lecture—Threatened Pepopulation of the Pemitentiary— Hluge Immigration Swindling—Colo nel Blood Again Arrested—Import= ant Decision—Nirs. Putnam Awarded $5,000 for the Loss of Her Husband —The Wissing Pevy. ‘Special Despatch to The Chicago Tribune. New Yomx, Nov. 22.—Mrs. Putnam, who be- gan s suit yestordsy against the Seventh avenue cars for 5,000 damages for the death of her husband, has had the unusual eatisfaction of re- ceiving o favorable verdict within twenty-four hours. Her husband, who was murdered by a car-hook, woald not have been brained if the conductor and driver had given proper attention to Foster's insulting behavior, The jury to-day deliberated but ten minutes, and awarded the largest amount allowed by statute. It is noto- rious that many car conductors and drivers in this city are in lenguo with roughs and pick- pockets, and now that the question of murder on the street car has been tested, that of systematic platform robberies will bo taken into Court. | * The 1,000 men dismissed from the Brooklyn Navy Yai, this week, are grumbling over their ‘discharge, 80 soon after election, and with no prospect'd; back wages until next pa; day.

S et othing has yet been heard of thQ missing Louisville merchent, George N. Pevy. -Detec- tives say thathe was shadowed by two wol- droased men several days prior to his _disap- carance, butneithorof these suspicious persons been’ orrested. The police believe also that Povy hed been drewn into a disreputable ac- quaintance, and left his hotel for 5 debauch, the result of which is yet to be ascertained. Ho pos- scased herculean strength, and would have fonght acquaintances picked up by Pevy was a man who entered his nume on_the Brandeth House regis- ter as simply Mr. O'Reilly. He hes also disap- peared since the 1ith. "It is not true that auy 1mportant arrests have been made in this case, Mrs. King, wife of the murderer of O'Neill, applied to tho %wfim‘ to-day, to prevent Ler landlady, at No. 50 West Thirty-second street, Trom compelling her to seek a Home elsewhere, Mra. King states_that sho hod been boarding there two woeks, having made a bargain to pay by the month. She was advised to remain the time agroed on, end to take legal messures should she be expelled; but, unless a disturb- ance took place, the police could not interfers, as the present dispute is only to be settled in scivil suit. The opinion is less favorable to Mrs. King's story as un abused wife, since it has become generally known that her photograph, taken in Paris, was found in O'Neill's pocket after he was shot. 5 To the Assoctated Press, -~ Father Burke made a vigorous rejoinder to Mr. Froude last evening. The Academy of Music was crowded with a sympathetic andience. The last lecture of the course will be delivered Dext Tuesdey.

Friends of four missing men are in communi- cation with the detactives, seeking the recovery of the lost. Nothing has been heard of the TLouisville insurance agent, George M. Pevy, and few now think that he 18 alive. Diligent search for him goes on, however. Nearly 300 Italians are now ot Castle Garden, defrauded of 21l their money by a band of im- migrant swindlers. It appears that they were induced to leave home by stories of the advan- tages nwn.itinnf them in Buenos Ayres. They were told in Marseilles that a vessel would be ot New York to take them to Rig, and they arrived hero on Wednesday, to find how cruelly they were wronged and robbed. The authorities hera have informed the Italian Ambassador at Wash- ington. %}o]onel Blood was nga.m arrested, to-day, in a civil suit brought by Challis, and, in default of 83,000 bail, lodgod in Ludlow Street Prison. He had just given bail in another suit when ar- rested.

SN S Gt Foreign Colonization in Virginia. ‘Special Despatch to The Chicago Tribune, ‘WasHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 22.—In addition to the expected acquisition .from Alsace and Lorraine, Virginia is nowanticipating and making preparations for a heavy -English immigration, when the season opens.

The huge iron doors wero opened by the jailor, Mr. Mauzy, with a clanking sound, and immediately upon entering they closed bohind us with a dull and heavy thud, The ordinary salutations were passed betwesn the visitors and the victim, and Camp answered “I am well.” He was then exhorted to tell “'the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth,” and not go into the presence of his God with a_falsehood marked upon his soul. Ho replied that the confesaion that he had given to the Rev. J. T. Phillips, some time sgo, was a correct one ; that he had no addition to. mako, only a list of the names of the clan which he, Camp, belonged to. Some of the names were 8 follows : Nat%mniel and James Broadhurst, Ed- werd Cox, Anthony Heminger, Chas. Kemp, John Brown, Wm. Miller, Jno Hayden, Frauk Surray, “ Dock » Gooch, or Gatch, John Law- ie;ce, Jno. McDonald, and two others nob own, Then the Sheriff said to Camp, “Come, for your time is up.” B . ! Camp then bade an affectionate adieu to his friends and essociates. At ten minutes before 2 Camp ascended the scaffold, sccompanied us follows: Tirst, Sheriff and Camp; then the Deputy Sheriff ; then Rey. J. G. Beharrell, Rov. J. McMaster, and Rev. J. L. Phillips. The 515t Pealm was then read by Rev. J. Mec- Master, of the Sccond United Presbyterian Church, of Princeton, which occupied 8ix min- utes, after which followed prayer by the Rev. J: G. Beharrell. Camp was then asked if he wished to commu- nicate_anything to his friends. Ho replied in the affirmative, and said : ; # My friends, I want to speak a few words. I tell you I have not done right. I confessed to & crime T was not guilty of, but I was there when it was done, knowing toit. I am going home on t)}u way to my mother, who ka3 gone before me." He then stepped forward on the drop.

Special Despatel: to The Chicago Tridunc. - New Yorxk, Nov. 22.—The National Board of Tire Underwriters renssembled this morning, and proceeded to discuss the proposed increase in tariffs and decrease of agents’ commissions. Ar. Heald claimed that the lesson the late great fires inculcated was compreheaded in those two points. Unless something of that sort was done, another great . fire like the last would sweep more companies out of existence. Ho waa heartily in favor of 10 _per cent allowance for agents, with the new tariif of rates, A resolution was presented that on and after Dec. 1, 1872, the commission E;:d agents shall e 10 per cent, excopt_on _dwelling houses and farm buildings, on which 15 per cent will be al- lowed. It was adoptcd, withan amendment that in the matter of dwelling houses and farmbuild- ings the compenies can fix their own rates. Tho Board then proceeded to discuss the ‘proposiion to increase the rates 80 per cent in cities of lees than 50,000 inhabitants, and 50 per cent in those larger.
