The section cast will weigh thirty-nine tons when co ed. Forty-one tons of metal were used for the casting The iron was from the machinery ef the old United Statessteamer Richmond. Two mouths were required to make the mould. and eight days wiil elapse before the piec@ cast becomes cool. This is the largest casting ever made in New England, the world. Two of the.alleged Bowdotnham Bank rob- bers, Bartlett and Simmons, were arraigned be- tore Judge Smith, of the criminal court, Bath. Me. Thursday afternocn. They pleaded “not guilty.” Several of the Government witnesses Se in their testimony, whig¢h fully identi- ed the personal appearance Of the aecused, butthey failed to identify thar countenances, sayein the case of one witness, who swore to meeting one of the accused on the evening of the robbery of the bank, and that he was ex- aming the cashier's premises. Senator Wilson publishes @ statement to the effect that, in regard to the eharges of drinking in Portland, made against General Banks by some of his enemies, he never stated that the general would not have the hardihood to deny the accusation he asserted in a meeting in Mal- den. What he did say was that, General Banks baying emphatically denied the trothfainess of those statements to a gentleman of the town, and to others, he should be surprised if the general should go toa public meeting to deny them, as he thought such a courseywould be a great mistake. General Ortega, who claims to. be the consti- tutional President of the republic of Mexico in the place of Juarez, arrived in New Orleans last night from New Xork, and requests the papers to announce that he will leave ina few days for Brownsville, whence he will enter Mexico with the object of re-establishing the constitutional Government. When this is ac- complished, he will send a minister to Wash- ington. His staff anda number of officers who have been awaiting him wtil accompany him. William B. Reed, counsel for Jeff. Davis: accompanied by Mrs. Robert Ould, wife of the ex-rebel commissioner of exchange during the war, arrived at Fortress Monroe yesterday afternoon from Richmond.

The dedication of the Stonewall Cemetery at Winchester, Va., yesterday was attended by over five thousand persons assembled from various pointe in the Valley of Virginia, The occasion was taken advantage of to transfer and bury the remaimsof General T. Asnby and Captain Dick Ashby. and also those of Oolonels Marshal! and Thompson—all late of the rebel army, and killeiin battle. Ex-Goy. H. A. Wise delivered the oration. Last summer a German named Emerick dis- appeared from Sandlake, a few miles back of Troy, N. ¥., and. being accused of robbery it was supposed that he bad ran away. at Thursday his dead body was discovered sus- pended from & tree in the woods @ short dis- tance from his house, and the conclusion is inevitable that after the discovery of his crime he went out and banged itself. James Garden, charged with the murder of Daniel O'Neil, was Thursday convicted of manslaughdter, in Obicago, and sentenced to the penitentiary for one year. John Morris charged with the murder of Patrick Foley. Junction, near Chicago, last April, was ac- quitied, the defence being insanity.

On Saturday &@ fight occurred at the farm of Mr. Massey, above Branchiown, Pa.. between James Hughes and Robert Little, during which Hughes was beaten and died Thursday Morning. Both were farm hands. The skull of Hughes was badly fractured. Lafayette McLaws, an ex-major general of the Confederate army, received a pardor from the President yesterday.

NO VIOLATION OF OUR NBUTBALITY LAWS WILL BE PERMITTED, New ORLEANS, Oct. 26.—The following im- portant letter appears this evening : HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OF THEGULF, New OnLEARS, La., Oct. 23, 1866.—General: I am satisfied that there is only one way in which the state of affairs on the Rio Grande can be bettered, and that is by giving the heartiest support to the only government in Mexico recognized by our own; the only one which is really. favorable to us. You will, therefore, warn adherents of any or pretended ovemment in Mexico, or in the State ef Famaulipas, that they will not be permitted to violate the neutrality laws between the Liberal Government of Mexico and the United States, and also that they will not be permitted to remain in eur territory and receive the protec- tion of our flag in order to complete their machinations for the violation of our neutrality laws. These instractions will be enforced against adherents of the Imperial buccaneer representing the so-cailed Imperial Govern- ment of Mexico, and also against the Urtega, Santa Anna, and other factions, President Juarez is the acknowledged head of the Lib- eral Government in Mexico. I am, General, very respectfully. your ebe- dient servant, P. H. SHzRIDay, Major General Commanding. Breyet Brigadier Gengral E. X.

JULESBURG, CoLorano, Oct. 24.—The Indian war has commenced; 250 head of stock were driven off by the Indians ‘within a few miles of Mount Sedgwick, aud; 100 bead of males, owned by Henry Carlisie, hters for the overland stage line, and 150 of cattle, be- longing to Vessey, Wall & Co., of Denyer, were also driven off. Several of the night herders were killed by the savages, amd a mumber of others wounded.

(Continued ) What causés have conspired t0 pince and keep Washington im a condition of BQn-development? ) A fourth cause of non-ad vancement is to de found in theateence’of self-reliance or rath- er im the feeling of absolute dependence engeu- dered by the mixed jurisdiction im charge of lo- cal affairs and by office secking. Ite unfortunately a fact that three-fourths of the population depend upon Federal office and Federal “patronage” for support. They know nothing, care for nouhing, beyond the Barrow limit of Vongressional appropriations The failure of a Deficiency bill paralyzes exer- tion, ruins trade ana tightens the money mar- Ret. The question snot “how can I attract the neighboring country to my store, factory or workshop,” buta querelous complaint arises “icant pay my obligation because Mr. A., in the circumlocution 0 ffice, cannot draw bis salary.” (The victimot the aforesaid Mr. A being innocently ig norant of the fact that some “curd st has long sinee “discount- ed” A.’s order on the disbursing clerk at the very reasonable rate of ten per cent. per month.) Call a meeting tor any object of purely loca, importance, it will probably be presided over by an “office-holder” and engineered by an “office-seeker,” who must necessarily present a string of resolutions endorsing er denounzing some other office-holder or seeker, who can help or injure his pyyvate interests. The pri- mary interest of meeting is forgotten or cboked Off and the affair degenerates into a »~Mutual Admiration Club.”* Attempt @ united effort to accomplisn some- thing of practical ad vantage;—the proposition — by Washington common jaw — receives the assent of one-third—the dissent of another third, and is killea by the indifference of the balance. One party objects becnuse his par- ticular patch of ground will mot be benefitted — another says he holds his residence elsewhere. (altnough he may have drawn his pay and eaten his bread here for ten years past)—a third “don't know anything about the matter”—and so it goes. Every enterprise inangurated— every echeme proposed—every petition sub- Mitted—every action of brain or hand—faiis stillborn, because residents of the city of Wash- ington cannot rely upon themsel ves—because thirty thousand people, haying the stature and appearance of men. are really children of ten- der years not aetive tee to stray from the laps of their mammes. and only strong enough to draw nourishment from the maternal bosom. (5) A fifth and last reason which will be here Assigned for the short-comings of the city of Wachington is non-idertity of interest and Want of pride in home enterprises on the part of merchants and business men. In other cities of the Union, howsoever much individual ideas and opinions may dif- fer, the momentan attempt to divert general interests to other localities, is discovered—to the real or supposed detriment of “heme”’—a solid front is presented; meetings are held; Acts fol- low and take the place of words: the whole community is aroused, and the energy and capital of the people are freely expended to preserve the prestigeand further the security of “our own city” as against outside competi- Uon. Take, asangxampie, Baltimore, distant but an hour's ride. There every man, wemay “Shy, every woman and chitd, is continually on the alertto protect and increase the business prosperity of the city. Her mighty railroad and steamboat lines, bringmmg the East, the South, and the West within her embrace,—are carefully guarded against successful rivalry. Municipalities, States, Congresses, labor in vain to restrict her enterprise or to distribute her resources. Grumbled at, cursed, legistated at, shemoves onward, disarming opposition by the force of indomitable will, and reaping the golden baryest te which her efforts so justly entitle her. Note now the contrast. Washington, geo- gTaphically located to control the traffic of the lower counties of Maryland and of a ver large portion of Virginia, possessing as a basis of wealth the Federal disbursements not to be found elsewhere, tamely folds her hands and allows all this to pars—not by but through her. Evsought by tarmers and merchants and arti- vans of neighboring cites, towns and villages to receive their produce and supply their wants, Washington momentarily kindles with enthusiasm; talks of the brilliant prospects (1!) in the future; threatens Baltimore, Philadel- bia and New York with commercial annihi- ation; resolves (on paper) to build railroads and stenmboat lines, air lines—all ef them; but alas the fire goes out! the kindling material is exhausted, the logs are too heavy or too satu- rated to burn, the gas and smoke, remaining as tokens of failure, serve only to deaden the fac- ulties and blind the eyes against any future exertion to start the furnace. To use the lan- guage of Artemus Ward, “Washington is not a success.” Ryiar. EXTRAORDINARY INSTANCEOF TaxeN Lord Frederick Fitz Clarence was once dining ‘with a party of officers at Portsmouth, Eng., when one of them began tell some rather Reavy stories of his exploits wu latin @ performance he had taught a yo: leopard, fame snake agd other animals; in fact, if this gentleman's account of himself was to be believed, aarey mo where when com- pared tohim. Lord Frederick listened to his veracious stories for some time with the great. est attention, and when he had finished said, “What you say, captain, is very true, l'vye.no doubt; any animal, however low in the scale of nature, can be instructed by a. kind master, and will become attached to him; 1, myself, once had ® tame oyster, which used to follow me up and dewn stairs.” anunals, re- INTOXICATION IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS.—The Su- rintendent of Public Schools in Fall River, Mase, bas published a letter, in which he calls attention to some evils existing in the schools oft that city.

The writer says:—“l have been credibly imtormed-by sev- eral teachers that pupils have come to their re- spective scLools in an intoxicated state."’.
