Later advices from South America give no definite Intelligence as to the result of the re- cent bombardment of Paraguayan fortificn- tons, but state that the Brazilian and Argen- tine fleet were lying off Humaita, and that the land forces were making no preparation for further movement, ‘The fever intermente in New Orleans to six o'clock yesterday morning numbered fifty-six.

No deaths occurred in Mobile from fever yesterday. Mrs. Lincoln's Pecuniary Circumstances— Proposed Sale of Her Personal Effects. The announcement already nas been made (says the New York World of yesterday) that Mrs. Abraham Lincoln, widow of the late President, was compelied to dispose of some of her personal effects in order to eke the slen- der income which remained to her after the settlement of her bushand’s estate, and that she was, in fact, in this city under the assumed name of Mrs. Olarke tor the purpose of super- intending the sale of her property. As Mrs. Lincoln is no longer anxious to withhold from the public the facts in the case, there can be no impropriety in imparting further informa- tion upon the ‘subject, as obtained from the lady herself. Upon the death of Mr. Lincoln made to appropriate for bi- wife and family the sum that he would have received trom the United States had he lived to finish his second term of office, to wit: $100,001; bu: it resulted in appropriating but =25,000, the amount of one year’s ealary es President. Of this sum, <3,000 were required to discharge certain standing obligations, leaving about $22,000, which, with the house and lot in Springfield, IL.,owned by Mr. Lincoln previous to bis election to the Presidency in i560, was all the property which fell to Mrs. Lincoln. Her present income, she states, is but $1,700 a year, of which $300 comes from the rent of her old house in Springfield. 1t appears from this that Mr. Lincoln not only saved 10 monry while be occupied the White House, but really lived beyond bis income, wnick, in connection with the natural reluctance of bis widow to return to the simple style of living 10 which she had been used before her residence in Washington, bas compelled ber to part with some of her personal effects at the present time. Appended are several letters written by Mrs. Lincoln in relation to thie most un- pleasant business. The first, in order of their date, appears to be the following: “ CHIcaGo, September 1, 1467. “Mr. Brady: A notice ina New York paper having attrécted my attention, that you sold articles of value on commission, promp*s me to write you. The articles I am sending you to dispose of were gitts of dear friends, which only tigen! necessi'y compels me to part with. and 1am especiaiiy anxious that they ebali not be sacrificed. ‘The circumstances are pe- cular and painfully embarrassing, therefore I hope you will endeavor to realize as much s possible from them. Hoping soon to h- ir trom you, | remain, vory reapectfuily yours, + Mas. A. LIncozn.” In thie connection is giyen an inventory of the articles sent to Mr. Brady, at 609 Broad. way, by Mrs. Lincoln, with the valuation af- fixed to esch:—1 black centre camel's bair shawl, long, $1,500; 1 white centre camel's hair shaw). long, 1.200; | white centre came!’s hair shawl, square, $1: | black centre camel's hair shawl. squar Ted centre camel’s hair enawl, square, & small shawls: square, $50; white Paisley shaw. long, $75; white Paisley shawl, square, $50: 3 superfine point black lace shawis, 1.500, $500, $300; 2 super- fine point black lace shawls, +5) $10; 1 white point lace shawl, long. 2,000; | white point jace dress, unmade, $3,000: { while point lace flounce, $150; | white point lace parasol cover, (:1 white point lace handkerchief, wian sable cape, ¥1.500; 1 Russian ble boa, $1.20, Also many other arucles, inclnd- ing diamonds, rings, kc. &c. A significant feature of the subsequent let. ters and memoranaa js the feeling enter- tained by Mra. Lincoln towards leading Re- publicans. She complains bitterly that men ‘who besought her influence to secure their of- ficial positions, and were profuse with promi- ves if ene would gratify their wishes, now give her the cold shoulder. Se The New Orieans Times of Tuesday week says: We were yesterday reliably in- formed of a case which curiously ill: the nervious susceptibility of p low fever. On Saturday night was considered by his physicians as out of all danger. Ata late hour in the night a Gulf steamer announced her arrival by firing agan, and the report gave the patient a nervous shock which caused him to expire in the course of five minutes. --That,” said he, «is my death shock.” The startling utterance Proved prophetic.

H. of R. Judiciary Committee, appointed to investigate and repert ‘Whether the Maryland State Uonstitution, re- cently adopted, isor is not Republican, are to meet in this city next week. The Hon. Frank Thomas, the chairman of this Sab-Com- mittee, I learn, designs making a probing in- vestigation; having prepared himself to show that im many r spects it conflicts palpably with the plainest and universally received ideas of American republicanism. Among other points he will probably aim to make, will be to show that itplaces the absolute control of the Legislature (and therefore of the State’s public affairs) in the hands of, the lower and Eastern Shore counties, which contains few more than & fifth of the voters, not a tenth of the property ofthe State, none of its manufactories or mining enterprise3, most of its voters who can neither read nor write, and not one-fiftieth part of Maryland's other various industrial enterprises. Mr. Thaddeus Stevens, by-the- by, bas been studying this question (whtch Mr. Frank Thomas has especially in hr 1d) ever since the end of the last session of Con- gress, whenever his health would permit him to read continuonsly. 1 learn trom a gentle- man who has been much with him of late. that he takes great interest in it, and intends to labor zealously during the approaching ses- sion to induce prompt Congressional action upon it. The subjret of our (Maryland's) new State militia is almost the absorbing topic of con- yersation just Row in thi> city. 1t could hardly be otherwise, in view of the fact that our four or five thousand militiamen appear nightly under the eyes of the Baltimore publicy marching hither and thither in squads or com- panics, uniformed in rebel grey, armed to the teeth, and reminding all most forcibly of the constant scenes in our thoroughfares when the preservation of the Union against the trea- sonable and murderous acts of so many of thcse same militia officers and men made this city’s military occupation a vital necessity. I need hardly write you that the Unionists here look upon the organization with great distruet, believing that its ulterior purpose is to inavgurale 8 revolution backwards by force of arms. The Unionists in it are there atmos toa man, only m order to hold it m check in case it be attempted to use it to an unlawfal end. The considerable trx-payers, too, are beginning to growl over its financial aspect. The Legislature, at its last session, approprin- ted $25,000 to purchase arms for it, and passed a commutation law requiring all citizens of militia age who declined serving in to pay $2 per annum for the privilege of declension, &c., This tax, it was alleged, was to pay for uni- forming and equipping the force, and $3iX),000 was the sum.to be thus raiced annually ac- cording to Governor Swann’s figuring. The cwenty-five thonsand mentioned first above has gone for the purchase of artillery and Springfield muskets. Instead of $300,000 having been collected for commutations and militia fines, but $27,0U0 have found their way from that source into the Stite treasury. Of that amount, $10,000 have gone to pay for drill and meeting room rent, &c.; leaving but a balance of come $17,L00 applicable in payment for the uniforms at=15.c7), cach. Already the State has incurred a debt for five thousand of these delivered to Baltimore militia men. Six hun. dred more are now being made up, to be de- livered to the members of the 16th Regiment That regiment bas been raised in St. Mary’s Charles, Prince George’s and Carroll coun- ties, where secesh sentiments so un{versally prevail. The total force being thus enrolled outside of Baltimore is 5,000 men. So unitorm- ing our State militia is to cost our State tax payers S1s8.7ot, the commutation law to the contrary notwithstanding. Maryland is en- titled to arms.rom the General Governmen, only to the value of $25,000. Swann refused tbem in small arms,demanding artillery; which Stanton first, and Grant subsequently refused bim. The force is now being equipped with Springfield muskets and accoutrements at a cost of about #23 per man, which for the whole 10,000 will amount to an aggregate of $230,000, Add to these two enormous sums—$ls~,970 and 8230,000—the allowance of 1 per day tor the bire of each of all the officers’ horses on pa- rade days, ihe commissaries’ expenses of the grand encampment for drill, practice, &c., al- Teady provided for, and your readers will see that this mysterious Maryland military or- ganization can hardly fail to cost the State’s tax pavers during the first year of its existence quite three-quarters of a million of dollars; and this, too, in the face of the formal report of the State Treasurer and Compurolier de- claring the State ireasury bankrupt! What the exigency requiring this enormous increase of the State debt may be can enly be drawn from the pro-rebel demonstrations—in words and jeere—of more or less of these militiamen as they tramp our streets nightly. Col. J.C, Mercer, late colon«| of the first Maryland rebel regiment, commands the fifth regiment of this Mrrylard militia. He was wounded severely at Gettysburg in his effort to destroy the Union. This filth is the crack regiment of the jorce—the + white kids” regiment. The story that the new constitution provides for the speedy disbandment of this State military force is alt bosh. It provides that the Legis- lature may or may not amend or abolish itat its next session—a year hence, perhaps. In the meenwhile its work will be done, if it is to have ausht todo. If not, and there remains a possibility that it may thereafter be able to aecomplish enything for the secesh cause, the men wro wili compore the next Legisiature under the existing order of things in Mary- Jand, will be the Jast in the world to jeopard its efficiency, AURAPTER OF SORROW.—Michael MoCarty, @ resident of New York, at the beginning of the war, enlisted in his country’s service and Went 10 tbe front.

The men were ready at about five o'clock, and took their positions, Quillan winning the inside on the toss-up Keynolds wore a scarlet cap, while Quillan's “colors” were bine and whiis. The differenee detween the physique of the two men was more marked than that between Joues and McCool. Several betters, inexperienced in Ti ces of that sort, recklessly put up their mon- ey on the man of the heaviest muscle, forget- ting that in a contest of that sort lightness and agility have am advantage over muscle with weight added—the heaviest man would be like- ly to weary first. ‘They started off together at- the word, the band playing an inepiring air, and a rade boy ‘who was seeing the show for nothing from the top of the fence, shonting, “Go it, you crip- ples!” All the spectators followed on behind the men, making comments and bets on the race, mostly comments.

RioTous RESISTANCE TO RBVENUE OF- FICERS IN PHILADELPHIA.—The revenue in- spectors made # raid on unlicensed whiskey stills in the northern part of Philadelphia on Saturday last, and were driven off by the peo- ple in the vicinity. Yesterday (hey made another 1aid with an increased torce, but fared worse than on Saturday, haying several of their party badly wounded by bricks and pie- tol shots. They ‘seized eeveral stills, and were taking them off in cars when a large crowd of men and women attacked them, recovered the copper vessels and drove off the officers. Deputy United States Marshal Schuyler re- ceived six serious wounds. Thomas Laney, of the rioters’ party, was shot in the head. The affair occurred near Port Richmond, mostly inhapited by the lowest class of {rish. Deputy United States Marshal Schuyler nad his pistol taken from bim. His wounds are not serious, though be is severely beaten about the head and arms. Deputy United States Marshal Gordon acted with great bravery when the crowd rushed upon the furniture cars loaded with distillery apparatus. Hedrove the crowd back several times. The worm-stilis were carried off by the rioters and hidden in dif. | ferent places. itis impossible for the officers to find them. The revenue officers did the best they could under the circumstances, but their force was too small and the raid was badly timed, as between twelve and one o’clock the coal crackers from the coal wharves were all at home and ready for the officials. A SINGULAR Uase.—It was reported at the Central Police Station yesterday, that between the hours of one and five o'clock that morning the millinery store ot Mrs. Ryan, corner 13:h and Rodman streets, had been entered by bur- glars and robbed of its entire stock of mer- chandise. together with some $550 in money from one of the upper rooms.

Remance in Mixed Circles—A Double Marriage and an Elopement (From the Layfatte (Ind.)

The woman remained single a year or two, living from hand to mouth, but finally went to Toledo, where she xccepted a situa- tion as cook in @ restaurant owned by a mu- Jatto. Afters while they were married. The | mulatto sold out his establishment at Toledo, wandered about from place to place, and fipally brought up in this city, and procured a tenement in the upper part of town. After running the gauntlet of several of the Sonth- ern prisons, the eoldier was finally exchanged, and atthe end of eighteen months after nis Teported death went back to his ola home to find that bis wife and cluld had disappeared, but where sbe bad gove no one could tli him: He at last came to Latayette and accepted a situation in a cooper’ shop. he being a cooper by trade. One day about two ‘weeks ago'a little boy came to the shop afier shavings, and the soldier st once recognized him as bisown. He asked the little one what bis name was. if his mother was living, and if she was married. The child gave his name— the same as his own—and said his mother was masriedtoa black man. He told him to come back the next day and he would have soma nice shavings and blocks ready for him. Tne next day the boy returned, and at the soldier's Tequest conducted him to where his mother lived. The mulatto was notathome. Upon seeing her soldier husband the woman. as a Matter of course, fainted after the most ap- Proved fashion and went into hysterics.
