Charies O'Neill, of Pennsylvania, had interviews with the President this morning. Gen. Ames’ regulations and details of officers for the election in Mississippi are approved by the President. SiT-Mixc-Coox was yesterday appointed by the President as interpreter to the consulate: of the United States in China. M. CaTacazy, the Russian Minister, has in- structed the Consul of that country at San Fran- cisco to have thanksgiving services in the Rus- sian chapel there, on Thursday next. Gey, Burrenrietn’s books and money in the sub-treasury at New Yor’: city have been thor- oughly examined, and everything found to be correct. Mr. E. C. STEDMAN'S residence in Irvington, N. J., was entered by burglars a few nights azo, his many friends here will regret to learn, and robbed of two valuable gold watches. Hayti.—Two petitions from New York and Boston have been sent here, signed by merchants of those cities engaged in trade with Hayti, ask- ing for the recognition of its revolationists as Delligerents. AMONG THE AMERICANS registered in Paris for the week ending October 23th, we note the names of Mr. A. D. Gillette, Mr. Franklin Cos- ton, and Mrs. M. J. Coston, of Washington, and Senator Chandler, of Michigan. THe TREAsvuRY anp Post Orrice Derart- MENTS were both closed to-day, the former in respect to the memory of the late Kobert J. Walker, and the latter in respect to the memory of Hon. Amos Kendall. SEcRETARY Bovtwe t left here last evening for a brief visit to hishome in Groton, Mass., but will return about Tuesday or Wednesday next. During his absence Assistant Secretary Richardson will act as Secretary. COMMISSIONER FisH ER, of the Patent Office, has issued a circular to delinquent patent agents, notifying them that unless their accounts for copies of drawings, specifications, &c., be paid immediately they will be prohibited from prac- tising before the office. Wuat's tHe Marten Now?—The Currency Printing Bureau received only a small amount of curreney yesterday from one of the Bank Note companies in New York, and both of the companies have notified the Department that they will not be able to furnish any to-day. Tue Presipext was unable to attend the funeral of Hon. Robert J. Walker to-day, on account of business engagements. The White House, however, was closed to all visitors at noon. Mrs, Grant, General Dent, and Mr. Dent, the father of Mrs. Grant, attended the funeral, as will be seen by our report elsewhere. RELIEF POR SICK AND DisaBLep SEAMEN. Secretary Boutwell has issued a circular govern- ing the furnishing of relief to sick and disabled seamen in the Marine hospitals, whieh provides that a seaman to be entitled to relief.from the Marine Hospital Fund must have served for at least three months, and paid hospital dues for that time. Awxvat Reporrs.— Commissioner Delano completed his report yesterday. Treasurer Spin- ner expects to complete his to-day, in which he will strongly urge Congress to increase the salaries of the clerks employed in his office. Secretary Boutwell has not yet written his report, and will defer doing so, it is said, until he has carefully examined the reports of the heads of ail the bureaus. . Senator Core is said to be pushing his brother, General Cole, who killed Hiscock, for Secretary of the Senate, in place of Gorham, the present incumbent. Whether this is true or not, it seems certain that Mr. Cole is pushing his best against Mr. Gorham. The effort appears to be based on local grounds, however, and those qualified to judge express the opinion that there will be no change in the officers of the Senate next session. St. Domrxco on Wuere?—The New York papers seem to be greatly excited over the sail- ing of the man-of-war Albany from that city on Thursday. They state that she took on board several hundred tons of ordnance stores, large and small field pieces, rifles, powder, shot, &c. It is also alleged that several Commissioners were on board, and the impression prevailed that she was going to the Tortugas to take troops on board,and thence to St. Domingo for the purpose of taking possession of Samana. The Tribune adds to this: ‘The time occupied in the call at Tortugas will enable the U. S. ships Severn, Flag-ship of Admiral Poor, Swatara and Nan- tueket to join her at St. Domingo, as the latter vessels would make a straight course. We mention these vessels because of the Mct that allof them within the past few hours have re- ceived sealed orders.” It is a pity to spoil such a well-prepared sensation story; but the cause of truth demands that we should state that the Albany was regularly assigned to the West India station, and took out nothing more than her regular compliment of arms and ammunition. Further, there were no United States Commis- sioners from this city on board to take possession of San Domingo, or, indeed, of any other place; at least there is no knowledge of any such Com- missioners here, THE PARIS CORRESPONDENT of the New York Times sends to that journal the following im- probable gossip in regard to M. Catacazy, the newly arrived Minister from Russia to the Uni- ted States: * “The new Minister was born in Athens—his the inspira Tt was he who wrote the St. Petersburg corres: eee ee ee med famous Russian ee ne on the atfair of SxaTor A¥D Mae. Montom dined yesterday at the Argentine Legation, were Mrs. President Grant, accompanied by her father, Mr. Dent, and brother, F. T. Dent; Secretaries Fish, Cox and Robeson, General Maynadier, General Ward Burnett, Commo- dore Harwood, Judge Gasey, of the Court of Claims, and Mayor Bowen. The body was enclosed in one of Gawler’. patent burial cases, covered with black cioth silver-mounted, and lined with white satin. On the breast was a silver plate, inscribed :—«« Ro»- ert J. Walker. Born July 19, 1801. ied No- vember 11, 1869.” A profusion of flowers rested on the top of the coffin. The impressive buria! services of the Episcopal Church were read by Rey. Mr. Chew, of St. Albans parish, (above Georgetown;) after which, the remains were r-- moved to the hearse, the following gentlemen acting as pall-bearers:—Chief Justice Chase, General Humphreys, Admiral Porter, W. W. Corcoran, Jno. B. Blake, F.P-Stanton, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Hartley, and Com missioner Joseph 8. Wilson, of the Land Office. The cortege having been formed under the di- rection of the undertaker, Mr. Joseph Gawler, proceeded to Oak Hill Cemetery, where the re~ mains were interred. The members of the bar and officers of the Supreme Court of the United States yesterday held a meeting in the office of the clerk of the court—Hon. K ‘Sa Johnson acting as chair- man, and D. W. Middieton, Esq., clerk of the court, as secretary. Mr. ‘James M. Carlisle moved that a committee be appointed by the Chair to draft resolutions suitable to the occa- sion; and the following gentlemen were accord- ely, a inted such committee: J. M. Carlisle, P. Phillips, T. J. Durant, Wm. M. Evarts, T. L. Dickey, Assistant Attorney General, Benjamin Brewster, and R. T. Merrick. The committee reported a series of resolutions in respect to his memory; which were adopted. Immediately on the adjournment of the Court in General Term, yesterday, a meeting of the members of the bar was held, Chief Justice Cartter in the chair, and Mr. £.J. Middleton secretary. A committee—Messrs. K. T. Merrick, W. S. Cox, F. P. Stanton, and J. C. Kennedy, with the chair—was appointed to resolu- tions suitable to the occasion, and the meeting urned to this morning. ‘his morning the members of the bar met pursuant to nment, when Mr. Merrick reported from the committee the following : he members of the bar, and other officers of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia have assembled bag the melancholy occasion of the death of their distinguished brother, Rob- ert J. Walker, who died in this city on the morning of the 1th Inst. The deceased was a learned and able lawyer, a liberal and courte- ous gentleman, and a ‘most interesting and genial companion. ‘Through his great fame as @ Statesman, and his invaluable services to his country, in various public positions and in many of his vnofficial intellectual exertions wascalculated to overshadow his reputation as a jurist, we, who had the opportunity to ‘know him in this capaci ed to appreciate his professional character—to measure the vast extent of his learning, and to feel that his great (a made him equally ywerful in the legal tribunals of the Pheer & as in the Senate or the Cabinet. His death is a serious calamity to the profession, who, though inspired by his illustrious example, are yet de- prived of his invaluable assistance in the admin- istration of the laws: Therefore, Resolved, That we deeply deplore the death of our lamented brother, and do hereby testify our great esteem for his character and services and our profound respect for his memory. Resolved, That these resolutions be presented to the Court, with the request that they be en- tered upon the minutes. Resolved, That we tender our sincere legs thy to his bereaved family, and request the chairman to communicate to them a copy of these proceedings. ati ; udge Olin second e resolutions, paying a tecling tribute to the. memory of the hormst, briefly referring to his many services to his country. ‘Lhe resolutions were adopted, and the meet- ing adjourned. Tur Witt op THE Late Amos Kexpaty.— A Baltimore paper this morning publishes a des- patch from this city saying:—“Amos Kendall, in his bequests to his grand-children, gives to each 225,000, excepting one, to whom he gives but $10,000, because he was in the Confederate army.” The author of the despatch must have better means of knowing the contents of the will than the relations and friends of the de- ceased, as the document has not been opened, and the family know nothing of its provisions. THe McGarRawan Case.— To-day the McGarrahan case was before the District Supreme Court in General Term. McGarrahan applied for a writ of mandamus on the Secre- tary of the Interior to issue a patent for 17,000 acres of land in California, and such writ was issued. The Secretary took an appeal from the decision of the court, and the case now comes in this court on appeal—Mr. Ashton for the Secre- tary; Messrs. Merrick, Davidge and Merriman for McGarrahan. AFFAIRS IX PRINCE GEORGE’s CousTY, Mp.— a, Flores Georgian of this week has the follow- ms : rn Maryland Enterprise —The gradiug of the Baltimore ‘and Potomac railroad upon Tite sections situated above this place being com- pleted, the large corps of laborers which were employed in that work has been disbanded, and tor several weeks past all work in this vicinity entirely suspended. We have experienced no little regret at this unfortunate state of affairs, but we now have the happiness to announce, if not officially, at least upon unquestioned au- thority, the early resumption of work upon the sections below and near this vil and the vigorous prosecution of the same throughout the entire route to the Potomac river.

Deatu or A Norep CotorEp Man.—Alexan- der Shumate, one of the colored citizens of Cin- cimati, the owner of the Dumas House, died last Sunday. His career had been in many re- spects a remarkabte one.
