The letter also demanded that the lot at Oak Ridge sheuld be used as the last resting place of Mrs. Lincoln, her children and their descendants. Mrs. Lincoin’s jetter was enclosed in one from Dr. Henry, of Oregon, and formerly of this city. which suggested that the best way to settle the matter was for the association to accede to Mrs. Lincoln’s proposition, and to make out a deed of the lot to her in accordance therewith, The lever of Mrs Lincoln limited the time for the acceptance of her proposition to ten days. ‘The receipt of these letters caused consider- able discussion, and it was moved and carried. that Hon. Jesse K. Dubois be appointed to confer with Mrs. Lincoln on the subject ot the proper piace for the remains and the erection ot the monument, but he peremptorily refused to do so. Dr. Melvin then moved that Dr. Oglesby, Hon. Jesse K Dubois and Hon. O. M. Hatch, late Secretary of State, be appointed to confer with Mrs. Lincoin. Mr. Dubois second- ed the motion, but again perempworily declined to serve on the committee. He said that Gov- Oglesby and Mr. Hatch were as intimate with Mrs. Lincoln as himself, and had also the ad- vantage of @ more perfect knowledge of the wishes of all parties, both in Springfield and elsewhere respecting the ultimate destination ef the President’s remains, than himself. Dr. Melvin's motion prevailed, and the Governor and Mr Hatch will visit Mrs. Lincoln and try, if possible, to reconcile the unfortunate dif- ferences which has grown out of the subjects of the monument and the last resting place of the remains. At the meeting Goy. Uglesby stated that the Money for the erection of the Monument was coming in very rapidly, and that 250,000, he bad no doubt, could be collected for the pur- se. In connection with this subject, I might add that itis an error to suppose the people of Springfield are united on the subject of the proper place tor the monument. Probably & majority favor the Mather property in this elty, one of the finest sites for a monument that could be selected. To this place, however, it is understood Mrs. Lincoln is unalterably op~ posed. She refuses ever to allow Mr. Lincoln's remains to be placed there. The reason given by her friends is that some relatives of hers, with whom she has not been for some time om speaking terms, reside on adjoining property. Other citizens of Springfield favor the selection. of a fine lot of land, offered by Major lles as a donation, and situated in the southeastern part of the city. Uthers again say there is no more beantiful spot for the monument than the block on which the Governor's residence stands. Others again suggestthat the monument might be placed at the intersection of two leading streets in the city, as isthe casein Maltimore and other places. Then again others favor the Oak Ridge Cemetery, the only objection to which is that itis too far from the city. Iti« & very beautiful and remantic spot. All, however, agree that the remains andthe monument should go together, if only Mrs. Lincojn’s consent be obtained thereto; while they are also emphatically of opinion that the property should not be allowed to pass into private hands, but should forever remain in the hands of trustees of the State and nation. This, as far as Iam able to gather, is the true state of the case,and I consider it highly im- probable that the association will feel them- selyes able to accede to Mrs. Lincoln’s de- mands, through Dr. Henry, for a deed of the preperty. On the other hand, the people of this part of the State, as nearly as I can judge, consider that the iate President’s remains have passed entirely out of private hands. and are now the property of the Stateand nation. How the unfortunate difference, which has existed, almost from the beginning between Mrs Lin- colin and the Monument Association, will be reconciled, or whether tt will be reconciled at all, it is hard to predict. THE PHILADELrHIa City FATHERS IN & Ficut —In the course of the bnueiness in Select Council yesterday afternoon, Dr. Kamerly, who represents the Second Ward, used remarks offensive to other members. They were espe- cially personal to Mr. Gray, of the Fifteenth Ward, whom he characterized as a clown,only fitfor cap and bells. After the adjournment Mr. Gray crossed to Dr. Kamerly’s side of the chamber, and remonstrated with him. Dr. Kamerly reiterated allits hie previous remarks. Mr. Gray told Kamerly that he shouldn’tresent it now, as he (Dr. K.) wasdrunk. At this Dr. Kamerly struck Mr. Gray square in the fore< head, hurling him to the ground. Mr, Gray sprang up, bleeding trom the eye, and dealt 2 biow that in turn felled Dr. Kamerly, and sent.the blood spurting from his mouth and nose. Five blows were thus interchanged. each being nearly a knock-down, The last dealt by Mr. Gray felled Dr. Kamerly, and Mr. Gray was upon him. The friends of the latter gentleman then removed him. Mr. Armstrongs in endeavoring to separate the parties, mar< Towly escaped received a feartul blow upon the face. As it was he was unpleasantly hit. Dr. Kamerly is a man of immense muscular power. His blow is almost equal in force to the kick of a horee. Mr. Gray is a man of lighter buila, but equally determined. What action will be taken by the saya ¢ in the matter peeins to be seen.— Philadelphia Gazette, Fri- lay. TELEGRAPHIO NEWS. FROM NEW ORLEANS.

Ngw York, June 16.—The steamers Even- ing Star and George Cromwell, from New Orleans on the 10th inst, have arrived here With $12,000 in gold. Genera! Herron has established his bead- quarters st Alexandria, La., and has issued an order informing the people thatthe Emancipa- tion Proclamation wonld be enforced, aud recommending the freedmen to work for their old masters. He would soon go wo Sbreveport. It appears that Buckner and Price surren- dered the troops of the Trans-Mississippi Department without the consent of Kirby Smith, who issued an order at Houston, Texas, to the effect that he had refused to surrender, and intending to struggle to the last for better terms; but Having been abandoned by his Texas troops, eounciled the remainder to re- turn totheir families and resume the occupation of peace. It was reported. however, that Smith, with 1,500 troops, and $1,600,000 in gold, had gone to Mexico. Governor Murray of Texas, called an extra- ordinary session of tne State Legislature, and ordered an election of delegates to the State convention, and also ordered the Sheriffs to seize the Contederate property in the State and divide itamong the people. These proceedings will doubtless bejsuppressed by General Sher- idan. General Brown occupied Brownsville, the rebel garrison under General S!aughter having witbarawn, after a row about their pay, which resulted inthe arrestof Slaughter until the money was forthcoming. Slaughter had sold @ battery of six pieces tothe Mexican Imperiel General Mejia for $6,000. General Brown had sent a letter to Mejia notifying him of the desire of our Government to preserve amicable relations with the Re- public of Mexico, and enclosing an extract from the instructions from the United States Secretary of State, to the effect that we prac- tice absolute non-intervention and non-inter- ference in Mexico, and stating that it would devolve on him, (Brown,) as far as practica- ble, to prevent aid or supplies being given trom the United States to either belligerents. General Brown adds that the troops under his command will not be permitted in any man- ner to interfere in the present relations of Mexico. A Browneville letter says Captain Jen- kins, of the 6th Missouri cavalry, isnow a Col- onel in the Liberal army of Mexico, and joins Cortinas. The letter says steps will be taken by the latter and Negrete which willresultin the fall of Matamoras.

There are various estimates of the amount. After inquiry of some of the principal merchants, I am satisfied that there are not less than five thousand hog! hoads here, or upwards of three million pounds. Itis principally, in leaf, and althongh some of it will necessarily be damaged by storage, there are some of the choicest brands sitl] here in good order. The estimated walue of this to< bacco is @ full million of dollars. Besides what is stored here, most of the planters in the re= gon extending from Farm ville on the east to ew river and Bristol on the west, to Staunton, on the north and to Lexington on the south, ar average of a hundred miles, have alsoa tew hogsheads in store. The whole amount now" on hand in the region tributary to Petersburg and Lynchburg is fitteen thousand hogsheads, ten thousand of them being within a few miles of thispoint. Of course itis valueless until the eompletion of the canal or railroad enables them to put itinto market. This is the only reliance of the population for clothing and other necessities.
