ee —_— THE EVENING STAR. ‘The Largest Circulation im the District. W. D. WALLACH, Editor and Preprietor. OCTOBER 24, 1667. S7 READING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE. SEE OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELE- | GBAPHIC AND OTHER MATTER. | THE BRANCH RAILROAD TO LOUDON. | The desirability of a branch railroad from | the District to the nearest practcable point on | ‘he Loudon and Hampshire road, was pretty | conclusively demonstrated at the Leesburg | meeting yesterday. The main question now St issue is as to the point of connection. Shaly the road connect with the Loudon road near Drainsville and cross the river at Great Falls, coming dewn the Aqueduct road to George- town? Shall it maxea nearer connection with Georgetown, crossing the Petomac at the “Three Sisters” or the Aqueduct, or shall it cross by the Long Bridge and terminate in Washington instead of Georgetown? Wash- ington not fancyiag the drawback of cart- age from Georgetown, and considering her- self, with her 150,000 inhabitants, likely to be the principal customer of the road, will matu- rally prefer that the terminus shall be in Washington. There is, moreover, a growing belief in Washington that all the railroads en- tering Washington should have their termini, depots and stations on Maryland avenue as the most convenient place near the heart of the city, and easy of access by horse cars, for the great railroad centre. There is now a cut- off track laid by Government connecting the Loudon and Hampshire road and the Wash- ington and Alexandria railroad, by which cars could easily come to Washington, if the former Toad wasso inclined; but under some rule of dis- crimination in favor of Alexandria, no con- nection seems to be allowed by which cars can come to Washington over the two roads, with the exception of the wood cars of Mr.Jos.Thoraton- Georgetown, however, naturally desires to | have the connection at the nearest point to her: | and the connection could be made direct from | Georgetown by laying about four miles of track. Should the Aqueduct Bridge be used, | the heavy expense of constructing a new | bridge would be avoided; and we presume that $200,000 would not nearly suffice for the erection of @ bridge and the construction of | the road. Those who look to achieving the great desideratum of establishing a manu- facturing city above Georgetown favor taking the road across the Potomac at Great Falls, and bringing it down on the Maryland side of Georgetown. This plan would, however, ne- cessitate the delay of seeking for a charter from ‘he Maryland Legislature, would involve heavy expense for bridging the Potomac and the construction of the additional amount of road, and if, as proposed, the Aqueduct road were used as the road-ved, a very large sum would be required to enlarge the tunnels of the Aqueduct and widen the curves of the road. The point of connection being settled, there seems to be no doubt the money can be raised sneuld only $200,(0)beneeded. The Loudon Tead seems inclined to make a satisfactory ar- rangement in regard to guarantees against dis- crimimation iz favor of Alexandria, and the showing of the road seems to be satisfactory as regards liens &n-: mortgages. The carious mat- ters of adjust-uents leading to a negotiation between the Districts eities and the Company are in the hands of the committees, who wiil mee’, we hear, on Tuesday night, to come to scme understanding. ee Mospy.—While the railroad meeting was in progress yesterday at Leesburg, a turning of heads in the direction of an individual at the rear of the hall indicated that he wasa per- sonage Of more note than kis outward appear- ance indicated: and presently the word “Blosby” buzzed about the room told the story. The famous partizan chieftain prac- tices law in Werrenton, and is now attending the court in session at Leesburg. He knows everybody in this part of Virginia, and has a very good practice. It will be remembered that he abandoned Jaw to enter upon his wild military career. In personal appearance he looks the lawyer even less than the warrior: Dressed in careless,easy Virginia country style, with white slouch hat, a dust stained bob-tail coat, milk end molasses colored pants and vest, (the latter minus two or three buttons.) a badly adjusted false front tooth, a figure of medium size, close-shaven, sunburnt youthful face, siouched shoulders, quiet, taciturn, un- demonstratiy® in manner, it was not quite easy to believe that he was the individual whose name and dare-devil achievements figured in the papers almost daily during the war. Another individual of note during the war— Col. E. V. White, of « White’s Guerrilias’ is now sheriff ot Loudour connty, and isa quiet and rather amiable-looking gentleman. Jorst CommiTTaz ox ORDNANCE.— The Joint Committee on Ordnance, of which General Robert ©. Schenck, of Onio, is chair- man, were to meet yesterday, but (eneral Schenck and Senator Cameron were the only two members present. General Logan, Sen- ator Drake, and General Butler, are the other tbree members of the committee. (General Logan and Senator Drake are expected this evening, and @ quoram will be present to- morrow, when they will proceed to take testi- mony 8s to contracts for arms. After which they will give attention to the subject of breech-loading fire-arms. The committee has ‘& vast amount of work before them, and will hold sessions until the adjournment of the next session of Congress. They will make a partial report at the beginning of the session. ThE Latest News rRoM lTary.—By cable telegrams from Florence, yesterday, we learn that Garibaldi landed at Leghorn, and nas since eluded the Italian police. The official Gazette says @ satisfactory change will be made in the mipistry. The fear of French interven- tion is passed, and the people must sustain the King. It is Teported that Gen. Claldini is planning a coup d'etat. A Cabinet has been formed, with Cialdini at the head. A deputa. tion of Romans beg the King of Italy to inter- venue for the liberation of Rome. MenottiGari- ‘bald is still in the Province of Umbria. THE 1MPBACHMENT TRsTIMONY.—The work 00 the impeachment testimony is progressing at the Government Printing Office, and 12 or 15 pages are daily put in type. The whole ‘work will be completed by the last of Novem- ber. Great care is taken not to let it get out, and aseach sheet is reat it is locked up. No ‘one is allowed to be near the press upon which itis printed, and the compositors engaged in putting it m type are sworn to secrecy. * pe dick deren easy Av INTERESTING Rurort.—General Grant has received from General Thomas, a fall re- port of bis action im Nashville during the recent election. It embodies all the corres. pondence petween General Thomas, General Grant, Governor Brownlow, and ex-Mayor Brown, 8 portion of ,which has already been Published. There are said to be several inter- esting letters that Rave not yet been made public. Tux Jupiciazy VomMITTER— Sub-Ju- diciary Committee, to inquire into the govern- ments of Maryland and Delaware, are still taking testimony, all the members being pres- ent. The committee will be in session for some days yet, but their proceedings are strictly private. They will make their report to Uon- gress at the beginning of the session. Berves or Ger. Raw, ‘Major General Joan A. Rawlins, Chief of Staff of General Grant, left Galvesten inst Saturday on his way to this city, and will arrive Rere ina day or two, i» bas been on 4 tour of inspection since Inst June, and will have a long report to sub. mit relative to affairs west of the Mississippi river. Tax Dismal SwaMP CANAL.—Ool. Parker, of Gen. Grant's staff, who bas been making an investigation of the condition and value of the Dismal Swamp canal for the use of the Seere. tary of the Treasury, returned to Washington yesterday morning, and is now engaged in the preparation of his report. PABDOUED. Presidest has issued bis wsrraptof pardon to Mejor General Marma- dake, WhO Was engaged in the rebellion. THE NATIONAL BANKING SYSTEM. A letter bas appeared from Mr. Jay Uooke in defence of the National Banking system, which he claims is and has been of so great service to the country that it should not be de. stroyed nor deprived of its privileges, though he confesses that it should be amended in cer- tain particulars, which he does not specify in detail. The prineipal instance which he ad. vances of the beaefite Of the national banking system is the unification of the bank currency of the country and the destruction of the isen- ing powers of @ multitude of ill-reguiated banks whose currency had it not been de- stroyed and driven from circulation would have brought on financial disasters, exemp- tion from which is cheaply purchased for the country by the concessions and privileges con- ferred on the new national institution. To the argument thatthe banks should not recpive eighieen millions a year for interest on the bonds deposited as security for circulation, he replies by claiming that the taxes and other burdens imposed on the banks amount to ten millions more. Among the services rendered by the banks of the Government he reckons first their investing their capital in some four bundred millions ot Government bonds which are taken out of the market permanently. Secondly, the aid they gave in the negotiation of the various war joans. Third, the gratu- itous functions they perform in the colleetion of the revenue. THE Ross S.vc.—Onur attention has been called to the ravages of the Rose Siug,ona branch of the La Reine rose, taken from the garden of afriend, Apparently it was in fall health, being plump and some four feet in length. In selecting cuttings, our friend dis- covering the evidence of the Slug, followed up the indications, and found the insectembedded in its centre, having traveled nearly its entire length, thereby rendering it unhealthy and worthless. Among other injurious and troublesome insects against whose depreda- tions the cultivators of the Rose haveto con- tend, this insect is not the least. Having now (October.) completed his ravages for the present season, he may be found trying to make his escape trom the plant, when he will | enter the soil, and live to repeat his destrac- tive work next year. If the amatenr om dis- covering the tops of the young shoots to droop, in the months of Julyand August, will cut them off from eight to twelve inches, he will generally find this insect (the offspring of the Rose Fly,) embedded in the centre, when it | may readily be destroyed. The Fly is sup- posed to lay its eggs on some of the young ‘wocd near the ground, in May or June. TRE ASSASSINATION CoMMITTEE.—General Butler’s special committee to inquire into the ascassination of Mr. Lincoln were to meet yes- terday, but none of the members were pres- ent. Mr. Randall, of Pa., is the only member in town, and he is engaged with the Retrench- ment Committee at the Treasury Department. At the adjournment of the last session of Con- gress each member of this committee was au- thorized to act as a sub-committee, and take testimony. Several ot the members have taken some testimony, which will be pre- sented when the committee meets. Gen. But- ler is now in Lowell, Mass., and it is not known when he will reach here, but it is thought he will arrive before the end of the month. RECONSTRUCTION.—There are now fall and official returns from two of the Southern States which have voted upon the proposition for re- construction. Louisiana gives 79,174 votes— which is more than a majority of the voters Tegistered—out of 129,726 registered voters. The votes for a convention were 75,093; against 1t, 4,000; blank votes,S. The majority in favor of @ convention Js therefore 71,075. In Ala- pama there were 156,259 registered voters. Of these, $7,572 voted for a conventien, and 5,635 against it—making the mayority 81,967. NATIONAL THEATRE.—The performance of Buckstone's romantic drama of the “Flowers of the Forest,” last evening, was excellent throughout. The character of “Cynthia” is one which gives full scope to the intensity ot dramatic expression of which Miss Western is capable and she was fairly supported. Miss Viola Barret made a decided hit as «Star- light Bess,” and Lamb as «Oheap John” and Allen as the “Kinchen”’ were both very good. This evening Miss Western willappear as Miami in the drama of «Green Bushes. ” To Tax-PayERs.—The Intslligencer and Ezyres: are in error in stating that the abate- ment of five per centum for prompt payment of taxes ceases on the Ist of November. By reference to the advertisements in the Star and Chronicie it will be seen that upon all taxes upon all property not in arrears for taxes for general purposes, an abatement of five Per centum is allowed to the 30th day of No-: vember, 1967, inclusive: after which no abate- ment will be allowed. THE RETREXCEMENT UOMMITTER.— The Committee on Retrenchment were in session to-day at the Treasury Department, Senators Edmundsand Buckalew, and Representative Halsey being present. Thus tar the Commit. tee has taken no testimony, their time having been occupied in examixing books aud pa- pers. Messrs. Van Wyck, Logan, Welker, and Senator Williams, the other members or the Committee, are expected to arrive here in the couree of a few days, when they will be- gin to take testimony THE CORPORATION ImDEBTEDNESS.—Al. though property owners are calling upon the Tax Collector in considerable numbers to pay their taxes, yet in consequence of it being necessary to first pay the Eank of Washington the amount overdrawn, and then to settle a few old scores, it will be some days before the Mayor will be ready to commence payments on the general indebtedness of the Corporation. epee ee Naval BoaRp Dissolvep.—The Board of Naval officers of which Commodore Jno. B. Marchand was President and who have been 4M session for some time past for the purpose of inqairing into contracts with the Depart- ment has been dissolved by order of the Secre- tary of the Navy, they having completed their work. —_______ GENERAL GRANT.—General Grant is much Detter to-day, and was able to g*tend to his duties at the War Department, where he was visited by a large number of persons. He is suffering with a severe cold which compelled him to remain at home yesterday. Tux Wars Hoves—A number of visitors were at the Executive Mansion to-day, many of whom had an interview with the Presi- dent.

In answer to this, it ts understood, Mr. Johnson makes this distinction between his responsibility and duty under the tenure of office ac; and other acts of Congress passed over hie yeto, and which he yet asun- constitutional, namely: that in the matter of the removal of members of the Cabinet there are but two arzons who can take tne initia- tive and do actor acts that will maxea case for the adjadication of the Supreme Cour', and these two D kee) arethe President and the Osabinet officer removed; whereas in the other laws of Congress other officers and citi- zens are the parties directly affected, and are Tequired to perform, or refuse to perform, the acts that make up a case for the decision of the ‘Supreme Conrt. “In this view of the subject, Mr. Johnson was the only one who could take such action 4s would eventually carry the case before the court; no one could take the initiative in the matter of the removal of a Cabinet minister for him. He alone has the power of removal of that officer. In the execution of other acts of Congress, the Executive necessarily leaves it to the parties aggrieved, or whose rights are directly affected by the laws, to test the con- stitutionality of the laws.” RESULT OF THE ELECTION IN BALTIMORE— Success of the Whole Conservative Ticket—The returns of the election in Baltimore yesterday for Judge of the Court of Appeals, Chief Judge, and four Associate Judges of the Supreme Bench of Baltimore city, and for Mayor and City Council, show th alt the Democratic Uonservative candidates, The whole vote cast for Mayor is 25,316, of which Mr. Banks, Democratic Conservative, received 19,420 votes, and Mr. Denison, Re- ablican, 4,996 votes, showing & majority for ir.

Casryet CHANGES PostroneD.—A speciay dispatch to the New York Evening Post, yes- terday, says: “It is understood from good authority that the President bas decided not to make the con- templated Cabinet changes at present. Ro- garding the War Office, Gen.
