Judge Howell will undoubtedly be indicted by the grand jury for issuing the call for it to assem- ble. The and conservatives have beld & caucus and agreed to calla State con- vention to appoint delegates to the National Convention at Philadelphia. The convention proclamation is universally ridiculed as the work of demagogues. Judge Howell was not president, but presided for the occasion. The real president refuses to call a convention. Governor Browlow replies to one of the in- tended bolters of the Tennessee Legisiature as follows: EXECUTIVE D&PaRTMENT, July 5, 1966.— Hon. M. E. N. Dunnaway—Sir: As itis evidently the design of your resignation to reduce the House below & quorum, and to break up the Legislature, the same js not accepted. W.G.

The lightning also killed several cattle in the neighborbood. In Vermont, Democratic county conventions are called at Ratland, July 11; at Middlebury, July 17, to nominate coanty officers. In both cases the call is addressed to “Democrats and all others who will support the principles of reconstruction as set forth by President John- son,” The Secretary of State and acting Governor Bell, of Texas, offivaatly announces to Chief Justice Austin that the officers of the provi- sional government will continue to discharge the dnties of their respective offices until orders are received fromthe President to the Generals Steadman and Fullerton are taking ‘estimony at Galveston, Texas. General Steadman publicly remarked that the bureau in Texas had been and is well conducted, and requires no further investigation. The news from Texas regarding tie cotton crop is unfavorable. It is estimated it will not be one-fourth of the usual yield, and the worms are thickening. Subscriptions tor the relief of the Portland sufferers are being made quite liberally in Baltimore. Tennessee—Gov. Brownlow’s Message. Gov. Wm.G. Brownlow having called an extra session of the Tennessee Legislature, he, in &@ message to that body dated on the 6th inst., stated the parpo for which they had been convened. He says * Under the fifth article of the Constitution of the United States Congress bas proposed as An amendment to that instrament a foar- tenth article, which has Been duly certified and communicated to this department by the Secretary ot State of the United States. Copies of said proposed amendment, with the authen- licated certificate, and Jetier of inclosure of the Secretary of State, are herewith transmit. ted for your cons deration, and 1 invoke your action 48 promptly as is consistent with the gravity and importance of the subject.” He discusses the proposed article section by section, Announcing himself in favor of all of its provisions, and concludes that portion of his message as follows: 1 congratulate you en your good fortune in having the opportunity of being the honored agents of restormg the ship of Ntate to her an- cient moorit gs, soon again to set sail upon her voyage of prosperity and glory. But littleover a year ago you assembled in the capital and took charge or the State. She was prostrate, bleeding, and beipless. The courts were no- where held with safety, and justice wasad- ministered only within a few fortified posts. County governments were broken up, and peace officers made no efforts to perform their duties, and anarchy with all its horrors reigned supreme. ithout @ treasury or rev- enue laws, the credit of the State Was de- stroyed, and our grand system of railroads Was in ruins; while guerillas prowled without restraint over the State. You have placed our great State upon its feet. Under your judi. cious legislation the treasury has been able to meet the heaviest demands The credit of the State ts rapidly rising to its former maximum height. Your railroads are nearly allin run- ning order, paymg the interest on their loans, while ail your courts are open, id justice is sdministered in every part of the State. It is now your proud privilege to restore the nople old Common wealth to herancient position in the Union of our fathers. As you have per- formed your duty heretofere in defiance of the abuse and denanciation of traitors, so 1 am confident you will do so in the fature, heedless of threats or dictation from any source.” —————— ny FimanciaL.—The New York stock market continues active. The Commercial Advertiser ot yesterday says:—Goyernments are very firm. The purchasing of Five-twenties by foreign bankers has been checked by the de- cline in gold. At the Board oid Kive-twenties opened at 106 06%, but ane nee sold down to 06% atter the Board 106 was bid, 1064 asked. The issue of 1865 was also active, a lot of over one million being taken at 105 on the first call. The prevailing universal ac- tivity in Governments is due partially to the steady demand for old bonds for shipment; but only partially. Money is less active, so far as respects the street demand, but the movement ‘Westward is quite important with some of the Banks. On call loans the rate is generally 5 per cent. Discountsare quiet.

SENGULAR CASE OF Konsery AGAINST A Lapy.—Mrs. Eteanor Willard, who represen - ted herself as the wife of a wealthy wagon maker in San Francisco. anda native of Canada, was brought up in ustody at the Tombs before Justicc Hogan, charged with bgving stolen a $100) United States Treasury note from Mrs. Caroline Braham, also of San Francisco, who bad been an occupant of the fame state room with her on board the oppo- sition steamer Santiago de Cuba, which arri- ved bere on Friday from Aspinwall. The evi- dence adduced was to the effect that Mrs. Braham showed the noteto Mrs. Willard a few days previous to its loss (d instant.) When she missed it her suspicions at once rested on the accused: but an examination of the tronks failed to throw any hight on the matter. On the arrival of the steamer here, Mrs. B. had Mrs. Willard arrested by officer Martin, and conveyed to the City Hall, where, on her own invitation, she was searched by Sergeant Townsend, and the note alluded to was discovered concealed in the seam of her dress, fastened with pins. On the discovery being made the accused become much agitated, and cried bitterly. She stated that the note bad been placed there by Mrs. Braham, in order to haye ber arrested. In reply to Justice Hogan she stated that she performed the jour- ney from San Francisco to Aspinwall in a state-room solely occupied by herself. For the remainder of the oyage she could not suc- ceed in procuring simiuar accommodation, ia consequence of which she was onliged to room with the complainant and anether lady. who is staying ounce at the Merchants’ Hotel in this city. rs. Braham had been often under the influence of liquor during the passage, and Mrs. W. believed that she bad Placed the note in her dress while in that condition, mistaking it for her own, as all their dresses were hung up together in the state-room.

Seen Tue CAMBRIDGE, Mass., WaIrPIxe Case. A party in Boston have taken the Cambridge school whipping case before the grand jury at Concord, and Mr. Foster, his wife and daugh- ter (who was flogged), and their counsel, were examined on Thursday. The Boston Voice of Saturday, alluding to the case, says: »-There is really but one side to this case.

If the teacher 2ould not control her the alternative was ap- parent enough, toexpel her. Her offence was trivial enough too—whispering. If schools cannot be properly conducted except by the suppression of whispering, then rooms should be large enough to give Opportanit for isolation to offenders. We are Skeptical, however, in regard to fmodern s: is of school-keeping. Schoolmasters an: so-called “educators” start with the propositions that order is Heaven’s first law, and absorbing this one idea into their narrow heads, they drive it to death.

Thechurch bells were all melted by the heat. Self-registering thermometers in Lowell & Senter’s vaults showed only 110 de- grees at the bighest pointin the lower vault, and 130 inthe upper vault. This vankt was built fifty years ago. Live bugs crawled out of the Merchants’ National Bank vault when opened.
