Senator Sherman was serenaded last night at Mount Carbon, Penn., and in the course of his speech said that during the war the Govern- ment was compelled to resort to the utmost limits of taxation; but that the business of Con- gress would be after securing upon the basis of universal liberty, to relieve ourselves from taxation no longer ne in making this reduction we naturally look to those arti- cles, the chief cost of which is low labor, the foundation of wealth. and should be as free from burdens as the air. The cheerfulness with which all classes and occupations bore taxes during the war makes itdoubly the duty of Congress to lessen and equalize the taxes now. He confidently anticipated that in a short time the duties on imported goods, a moderate income tax, anda taxon luxnries, would enable us to perform honorably all our obligations. A grand commercial banqnet will shortly be held at Toronto, at which a large number of leading business men of the United States will be present. The topics to be discussed are the Teciprociiy treaty, enlargement ot canals, and the building of the Huron and Ontario ship canal. The storm of yesterday prevailed North with great violence. At New York the tides were very high, flooding lower portions of the city, and doing much damage. At Boston the steamers were prevented from running, and it was appremended that serious losses had been sustained off the coast. Governor Dillingham, of Vermont, has ap- pointed the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, Hon. Luke P. Pollard, of St. Johnsbury, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of Senator Collamer. Advices from Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana consist principally of details of murders, pillage, and other outrages by the in- habitants, who seem to have lost all respect for decency and civilization. The Fenians held a very large meeting at New Orleans, November 11. Colonel Cowden made a speech, denouncing the Irish Catholic clergy. The Tammany party of New York, has nominated Jonn T. Hoffman for Mayor, and Richard O’Gorman for City Commissioner. Major General Palmer has been indicted by the Grand Jury of Jefferson county for en- ticing slaves to leave Kentucky. TuE Recertion To Gen. Grayt In New Yor«.—The reception to Lieutenant General Grant by the leading citizens of New York took ice at the Fifth Ayenue Hotel Monday ¥, ing. There were over two thousand in- vitéd guests present, representing the wealth, the beauty and the fashion of the metropolis. Mrs. Grant was also present, and gracefully received the cordial greetings of her lady friends. An immense throng of people was congregated in the vicinity of the hotel ontside, notwithstanding the rain storm, with the desire of catching such stray glimpses of the scene within, as might fall to the lot of the uninvited, and during the evening they were entertained with musicand a fine display of fireworks. After the conclusion of the reception cere- monies, General Grant, with a party of prot nent gentlemen, sat down to a special supy at cleven o'clock, when speeches were made by the distinguished gues and a number of others. The festivities lasted until a late hour. Of the crowd the Times says:—“If one had gotten safely away from the hat and badge Tooms, and had endured for an hour and a half the presence of discomfort of the crowd, he found himself at the door of the reception room, on the yery threshold of his desire. In- stantly he is caught by a committeeman, passed on to another, seized by a third and squeezed by a fourth, who asked his name. “Wiggins,” said he. «Mr. Nicholas,” said the committee- man, the guest bows to the General, but before his backbone entirely resumes the perpendicu- lar he finds himeelf pushed before Mrs. Grant, who smiles partly at his awkwardness, and partly that she may reassure him. Before he fairly knows who he is, where be is, or what he is about, he is passed on by a deputation of excited members of the committee, who salute him thus: “Come, now, old fellow (or my dear Sir,) hurry up, pass on; this is no time for little speeches.” On he goes, red in the face, perplexed in his mind, discomfitted in body, and every way miserable. This was the ex- perience of hundreds last night.” THE ORANGE AND ALEXANDRIA RAILRoAD.— The Richmond Republic says the statement that the Secretary of War had ordered the bocks and papers of the Orange and Alexan- dria Railroad Company to be turned over to Mr. Barbour was incorrect. They have been placedin the custody of Mr. Quigley. Mr. McKenzie has published acard, in which he says: “1 will just take the liberty of stating, from the best information accessible, and by those fSupposed to be acquainted with the company’s affairs, that there are 32,015 shares of fifty dol- lars yalue, $1,950.550; of which 528 shares were represented at the meeting of stockholders held atthe Council Chamber, at fifty dollars per share, or $1,276,400, leaving not represented in that meeting 13,459 shares at fifty dollars or 8674,450." The argument before the Board ot Public Works in bebalf of the stockholders who elected Mr. Barbour was presented yesterday by Mr. Jas. Neeson. Financtat.—The New York Commercial of the 2ist says that the stock market is dull, in sympathy with the weather. Speculative op- erations are held in abeyanee, and prices are generally down a fraction. Governments have taken another sharp downward turn. A large amount, of all kinds, was offered at the board, probably to close out a speculation developed by the recent fall in prices; and prices gener- ally declined under the offering, except Sixes, Istl. which were \ higher. Five-twenties of 1862 declined ¥; Ten-forties, %; Seyen-thirties, second series, y; Seven-thirties, third series, 4. The banks are lending and discounting more freely, and consider themselves safe in a slight extension of accommodation to their cus- tomers. Currency still comes ia a steady flow from the West, though not in very large amounts, while the shipments southward are merely nominal Gold without material change. The ruling quotation during the morning has been 146%. New JERSEY SENATORSHIP.—_The Newark Advertiser says: “The election of John P. Stockton as United States Senator haying been regarded as illegal, owing to his receiving only 4 minority of the votes cast, (40 out of 81), it is deemed almost certain that the United States Senate will refuse him his seat. In that event the legislature will select a snecessor. Hon. F. T. Frelinghuysen, of this city, and Mr. A. G. Cattell, of Camden, are prominently named. > Sealer Ten Eyck may also be a candi- jate.”” PRESIDENT LINCOLN’# GRaveE.—A letter from Paris says: Mrs. Lincoln has ordered from Zwickan, celery & monument for thegrave of her husband, the lamented President. It iscut out of serpentine stone, of an obscure green color, in the form of a large die, and bears the simple inscription, “Abraham Lincoln.” In the middle of October it was to be forwarded by rail to Bremen, where it will be shipped to your country. The quarriesof Zwickau are celebrated for their stones. Bisnor 'L8.—Bishop Soule, whose late appearance at a Methodist Episcopal Conven- tion at Nash ville excited so much interest,is the senior Bishep of the Church South, and said to be the oldest Methodist Bishop in the world. He is a native of the little town of Avon, in northern Maine, and a descendant from -Puri- tanstock. His sympathies throughout the war baye been on the side of the South. Brothers and sisters of the Bishop now reside in Maine. CONGRESSIONAL.—Robert S. Hale has been elected in the Northern District (Essex, Clin- ton and Hamilton counties), to fill the vacancy im Congress created by the death of Hon. Or- lando Kellogg. He had about 1,200 majority. According to the law of the State (New York) he cannot recrive his certificate of election un- til December 15, so that he cannot take his seat Al the opening. A CorrectTion.—The Richmond Whig, in referring to the statement thatGeneral Lee had applied for cannon for the use of pupils at the military school at Lexington, says that Gene. ral Lee bas no connection with the military school at Lexington, and has nothing now to do with “artillery.” The Whig takes it for granted that the statement is untrue. ———_———______ CoMPaRIsONS ARE ODoROoUSs.—Our packing- box maker asks what is the difference between ac nter’s shop and the city canal!

Tue CHoL_erna.—The Secretary of War, in re- fponse to a communication from Mayor Gun- ther, of New Yerk, states that the steamship Ll- linois will be turned over by Governmenttothe city authorities for quarantine purposes when - ever wanted, and that the subject of granting land fora cholera quarantine hospital at Sandy Hock has been referred by the President to the Attorney General, who bas not yet given his opinion. The steamship Atalanta has been re- moved tothe Upper Quarantine. A commu- nication from Dr. Bartlett, who was Health Officer of that port at the time of the last visi- tation of the cholera, in Its4, was Inid betore the Health Commissioners. The Doctor pre- sents a statement of the circumstances attend. ing the appearance of the disease at that time, and arrives at the conclusion that its spread may be prevented by a thorough cleansing and disinfection of the baggage and everything on board the arriving vessels which has in any way been in contact with the infected persous and the complete isolation of the uninfected passengers while this process is In operation. THE RUSSIAN TeELeGRars.—Further partic- ulars of the progress of work on the Russo- American telegraph via Behring Straits have been received from Francisco. An ac- count has already been given of the arrival of parties of surveyors and laborers on the coast of Asia, after having completed the stringing of the wires for a considerable distanes on the American side up towards Behring Straits, in which soundings had been made preparatory to laying the submarine cable. We now learn that those engaged in the enterprise on the Asiatic side are prosecuting their [abore vigor- ously and with great success, having penetra- ted 4 considerable distance into Siberia and met with every assistance needed from both the Russian officers and the natives. The Straits are found to be favorable for the sinking of the cable, and everything connected with this im- portant telegraphic undertaking promises its early completion. RATIFICATION WITH AN “IP.”—The manner in which South Carolina bas passed the Con- stitutional amendment prohibiting the exist- ence of slavery, does not recommend the Leg- islature of that State as an exceedingly loyal body. The amendment has been adopted with a rider, as follows : “Resolved, That any attempt by Congress to- wards legislating upon the political status of former slaves or their civil relations, would be contrary to the Constitution of the United States as it now is, or as it would be altered by the proposed amendment; in conflict with the policy of the President, declared in the amnesty proclamation, and with the restora- tion of 1 harmony upon which depends the the vital interests of the American Union.” REPORTED TROUBLE WITH THE FREEDMEN.— A report has gained some circulation in our midst that the freedmen on one of the Sea Islands haye formed an armed combination for the purpose ef preventing the former owners of the property fromfregaining possession, or even visiting the soil, notwithstanding they might bave legal and military right to act in either particular. How much reliance may be placed in the report we are not prepared to say: but we feel convinced that should they prove correct the military will promptly adjust the difficulties —Charleston (8. C.) Courver, Nor. 16. ADMIRAL FARRAGET.—A despatch from Paris says :—“ According to L’ Independence Belge, there is some mystery in the presence just now of Admiral Farragut on board the ‘ederal avisco Frolic on a tour of visits to our ocean war harbors of L’Orient and Brest, What does that daring and distinguished Amer- ican seaman contemplate by loitering along our coast! or is he taking soundings for ulte- rior operations in case of a rupture about Mex. ico! It is clear that there are susceptible folks here who see nothing frolicsome in the visit of so determined a sea captain.” eens Aw Ockan Race.—The steamer Santiago de Cuba (formerly a nayal versel,) will leave New York at the same hour with the steamer Baltic, of the Pabific Mail Steamship Compa- ny. The trip will be made to San Francisco at her highest rate of speed, and the proprietors of the Nicarauga line feel confident that the Santiago de Cuba can land her passengers ahead of the other line. This race, beginning in the Atlantic and ending in the Pacific ocean, is the first <a of the kind, and is at- tracting much attention. B7 The Orange and Alexandria Railroad difficulty is stih before Governor Pierpont for his adjudication. The Alexandria Commen- wealth says: “We gave currency in our last issue to the erroneous rumor that the books of the Orange and Alexandria Railroad Company, which had been siezed by the military, had been turned over to Mr. J.S. Barbour. The fact was just the reverse; they were placed in the possession of Mr. A. Jamieson.” @7 The ravages of the worm which stripped the leaves off the cotton plants in Arkansas, has turned out a blessing instead of a curse, ae it seems to have caused a more mature yield to the bolls, and the cotton can be gathered in a cleaner condition than if the dead leaves were present, to mix with it. The same is ree pores ofthe cotton crop in Southern Iilinois. be product from the quantity planted, will be unprecedented. ———$————___ &27-The Commission for the trial of Fenians opens on the 27th at Dublin.
