ELECTION INCIDENTS IN THE DIFFERENT W agps.—There was little drinking yesterday, and the consequence was that order was strictly maintained dufing the entire day and night. The police of the First Ward did not report a single case of drunkenness or disor- derly conduet. The only arrest made at the polls was Wesley Sheppard, colored, whe, after being several times told that he was not named on the poll book, presented himself to vote. The witnesses asked his dismissal. at- tributing his conduct to the fact that he had been registered, and his name not 4 sad epab- TELEGRAMS, &c.

The officers were armed with Henry rifles, and aftera sharp fight succeeded in putting the crew (all negroes) tn irons. The National Typographical Union met in Memphis, Tennessee, yesterday. About seventy-five delegates were present. The tollowing officers were elected: John H. O. Burly, of Caire, elected president; D. C. Morris, of Memphis, first vice president; Hammond, of New Orleans, second vice p: ident: Alexander Troupe, of New York, retary; and W. D. Mayberry, of Philadelphia, corresponding secretary. At a meeting held in Knoxville, Tenn., Sat- urday, addressed by Messrs. Stokes and Eth- eridge, several siight disturbances eccarred between the whites and blacks, but nothing serious occurred. Several companies of mi- litia have been sworn in to preserve order at the election.- Political excitement runs high; and both parties are confident of success. The report of the wreck of the American bark Rover, on the southern end of the island of Formosa,and the murder of the crew by the natives, is confirmed. H. B. M. ship Cor- morant endeavored toland to gain informa- tion, but was fired on and compelled to re- treat. The Cormorant shelled the place for two hours, and returned. The argument in the impeachment trial of Judge Frazer having been concluded, the on the book, ‘was eent back from the lican headquarters with a certificate from the Judges of Election that he had been registered, and ‘ich caused bis perseverance in trying to have hie yote received. The case was dis- miseed. ‘inthe Second Ward at the northern pre- cincts a rather comicai scene occurred that for the moment loeked like a disturbance. Just as the polls closed several colored men in sport started off at full speed and ran from ,| the Ist precinct of the 2d ward toward the Ist precinct of the 3d ward. They were pursued by about a hundred others; and Lieut. Kelley, ofthe police, supposing a riot was opening, started for them and pinced himselfin an al- ley through which they were about to pass, and just as they entered sprang in front and presenting his weapon called them to halt. The halt was eo sudden that those be- hind in their hurry upset those in front and a dozen or more fell, and were tramped upon. The crowd went back to their starting place laughing over the mistake and their overturn. Patri W. Haggerty was arrested for snatching @ ticket trom the hands of 8 voter Officer Williams took him to the Central Guardhonse, and he was held to bail tor court in one thousand dollars by Justice Morse. Eight cases of intoxication and disorderly conduct were reported im this ward and one W. H. Cotton was fined £20 for carrying con- cealed weapons. in the Third Ward there were no interfer- ferences with the voting at the polls reported. and but four cases of drunkeness and disorder- ly conduct. In the Fourth Ward there were no cases of disorder at the polls; eight cases of disorderly conduct in the streets, and Wm.

Henry Muth, a German, was fined $20 for carrying concealed weapens. There were five cases of disorderly conduct. The entire number of arrests in the District was 52, not much over the average, and the cases were generally of no real importance. —_e—_—_. PRESENTATION.—Y esterday evening, a meet- ing of the car drivers and friends of John R. Sayers, Esq., superintendent of the Washing- ton and Georgetown Street Railway Company, met at Mr. Jack O'Leary’s Senate House, on New Jersey avenue, near the Baltimore rail- road depot, for the purpose of presenting Mr. Sayers with a beautiful set of harness, a whip and cover, asa slight token of esteem for his kindness to them while connected with the road. The presentation speech Was made by Mr. R. A. Griffin, receiver of the road, and replied toby Mr Sayers. A neat set of resolutions. expressing the regards of the drivers and triends, were also presented to Mr. Sayers in @ beautiful beach walnut frame. After the presentation, @ first-class supper was served up, and partaken of by all present. THE PRESIDENT'S TRIP. The President was welcomed to Weldon, N. C, yesterday by State Treasurer Battle in a brief address to which the President replied as briefly, expressing his thanks. Mr. Battle then extended a cordial welcome to the Secre- tary of State and tne Postmaster General. Mr. Seward in returning thanks said: “I come here with the President with pride and satis- faction on this visit to his native State: pride and eatisfaction because he has honored me with his confidence in his Administration, and satisfied because I am te bear testimony betore the people among whom he was born. as 1 always cheerfaliy do before the people ot my Own nativyeState, the people ofour com- mon country, a world, that his only objectsare the restoration of peace. harmony, and pros- perity throughout the Union. Iam satisfied still more because 1 believe his conduct of the public affairs has been in all respects not only patriotic, but wise and benevolent.” i Postmaster General Randall alse returned bis tbanks in a brief address, and the party re- sumed their journey, arriving at Raleigh at a quarter past four. A large crowd was in waiting, ana the President was cheerea on Janding. Generals Sickles, Burns, and Miles were at the depot. Repeated cheers were given in honor of the President. Mayor Haywood addressed the President, in behalf of the City Councils and citizens generally. tendering him a cordial welcome to the hospitaliues of the city of Raleigh; te which the Presidert briefly replied. The pro- cession was formed, the President being ac- companied by a military escort. He was cheered as he passed through the principal streets, and on reaching the Yarborough Hotel he proceeded to the portico, and was there in- troduced to the crowd by Governor Worth, who, in tendering him a welcome, said he deemed it inappropriate to the occasion to al- Iude to any of the political questions which now divide public opinion. We Propose only a tender of respect to the President, in which every true and honest North Carolinian ought to join. We all desire the restoration of a con- stitution as nearly as possible on its old foun. dations, and therefore we all honor our illns- trions guest, as posterity will honor him, for bis intelligent, constant, and manly support of constitutional liberty. The President replied at some length.

The popalar display Was exceedingly brilliantat the railroad sta- tion and in all the streets through which the royal cortege paseed on its return to the palace.

The Czar Alexander comes from Berlin direct, where be was entertained by King Wallam. of Prussia, and accorded interviews toConnt Bismarck. He had visited Oopen- hagen previously.

Interest and Debt of Virginia. Mr. Taylor, Auditor of the Treasury of Vir- gina, in a letter just published, addressed to the president of the First National Bank of Richmond, states the public debt on the 17th of April, 1661, at $34,077,293.38, from which he deducts $11,265,718 54, that being the amount tobe extunguishea by the sale of the State's interest in the several railroad companies mamed, for State bonds at par. He ae- ducts £2,000,000, the amount of the sinking fund which 1s invested in the State bonds. The deductions leave the amount of the pub- lic debt as shown by theauditor, $21,691,579 84. The act of Assembly passed at the late session provide for the payment of interest of the debt atthe rate of four per cent. per annam. hid the reduced debt at this date the interest will amount to $867,663.16. Adding to this the sum necessary for the operation of the State government, (Legislature, salaries, &c.,) say £500,000, and the annual liabilities amcunt to $1,367,663.16. The tax bill makes an assessment of thirty cents on the hundred dollars value ot property} and it is estimated that this, with the license taxes, will produce an annual revenue of over $2,00¢,000. From this deduct the annual liabil- ities, $1,367,663.16, and we have at least $632,- 336.84 as an annual surplus to form a sinking fund for the gradual extinguishment of the en- tire debt, provided that existing laws are not changed, and provided the State's interest in the several railroads named is di ed of as now directed by law. After the State debt is reduced to $21,091,579.84 in the manner now proposed, the Commonwealth will still hola in other railroads, and in the James river and Kanawha canal, interests whose par value is 316.676,551.55, besides large and valuable in- terests in other public properties. “In conclusion,” says the auditor, «1 may be pardoned for remarking that there is nothing in the future, so far as I can foresee, to induce the supposition that the interest on the peniic debt of the State will not be regularly and unctually paid. The debt itself will doubt- less be reduced by an exchange of the interest of the State m the roads aforesaid for its bonds at par, either by the organization indicated m this letter or by authority granted to the board of publie works to dispose of the same with a view to its extinguishment’ The Richmond Enquirer adds that the “payment of the Jaly interest on that portion of the public debt pay- able in Europe will certainly punctual, as itis understood that the treasurer has already arranged to remit sterling within a few days for that purpose.” LARYLAND CONSTITETIONAL CONVENTION. The Constitutionai Convention yesterday made temporary disposition of the subject of negro testimony. The order of Mr. Aicher, recommitting the report of the committee on the legislative department, with instructions to reportan additional eection, “that no person shall be incompetent as a witness on account of race or color, except hereafter so declared by act of General Assembly,” was adopted without amendment. That portion of the 36th article of the Declaration of Rights which was identical with the above instruction was then struck out, and the article adopted in a form so as to relate entirely to religious liberty, and secure the right to be witness or juror to those otherwise competent, providea they believe in the existence of God. moral accountability to Him, and a condition of rewards and punish- ment, in this or the world to come. That por- lion of the 37th articie of the Declaration of Rights relative to the qualifications for office, requiring a “declaration of belief in the Chris- tian religion,” was struck out, and a substi- tule was adopted, which declares that there shall be no religious test other than belief in the existence of God, and that the Legislature shal} prescribe no other oath of office than that prescribed by the constitution. Thus, with the clause heretofore inserted in another ar- ticle against retrospective oaths, the peopie of Maryland will be protected in that regard as tar as may be by their civil government; while at the same time no possible civil disability Will result to any one on account of religious creed. All the other articles of the Declaration ot Rights, as reported by tae committee, were gone through with. HANGED, DECAPITATED, QUARTERED.—The sentenced pronounced against certain Fenians in Dublin isin these terrible words:—“That you be taken hence to the prison from which you came; thence to be drawn upon a hurdle to the.place of execution: there to be hanged by the aeck until youare dead; that your heads be then severed from your bodies; that your bodies be quartered, and placea ather must gracious Majesty’s disposal.” This law was, it appears, passed as Jate as the year 17>5, in the ume of George the Third. and although there is BO probability of its ever being carried out, it scandalizes humanity by being retained in the books. But Queen Victoria, it ie well known, will never enforce such a barbarous enactment. The idea of the four-quarters of and his severed head being “placé@ ocking to think of. THE EXPENSIVE FUNERAL NUISANCE.—The heavy expense of the present mode of con- ducting tunerals is attracting attention in va- rious parts of the country as exceedingly bur- densome on the poor. The Uatholics of New Bedford are signing papers agreeing to em- ploy carriages only for the immediate rela- lives, and in Taunton the number of carriages is restricted by agreement to four. This may seem a small matter, but it affects very seri- ously the comfort of a great many thousand people throughout the country. An Emperor of Austria, a great many years ago, hoping to remedy a similar evil, issued a decree that the dead should be buried without coffins and in trenches instead of separate graves: but this so shocked the sense of humanity among the common people that he was compelled to withdraw it. There is room fora great and most useful reform now without going to any such extremes.—.V. ¥. Times. CHESAPBKE AND OHIO Cawat.—Thé Board of Public Works met at Annapolis yesterday.
