It is understood, however, that Mr. Dodge, who arrived here this morning, and Pishop Simpson both decline. It is understood that the President has appointed Fred.

Mr. Wade had a long conference with Mr. Sumner last night, at which it probable yuestion was talked ‘over. ident to-day appointed ex- Senator Wade, of Ohio, and President Wh te, of Cornell University, as two of the Commission to visit San Domingo, under the resolution which essed yesterday. He also appointed General tanz Sigel secretary to the Commission. The third Commissioner will be appvinted to-mor- TOW morning. Olle TAR ALPHArRTICAL LeTTER—There las been considerable talk to-day in politica; circles about a curious publication made by General Butler, of what purports to be a threatening letter to him from or on behalf of Admiral Porter. ‘This document appears elsewhere in Tue STAR. According to those who speak trom the Batlerian stand- 1Oint this curious doeument is anonymous, and the body of the letter is in the hand-writin, of a copying clerk, but that there are interline. ations in pencil in the band of Admiral Porter. ‘There are, Lowever, unbeiievin; Josephs who Proiess to suspect that the whvle thing is the Product ofthe rertile brein of the versatile B. 5. A representative of Tar STAR visited Almi- ral Porter this morning and found him com- ‘ortably seated in the offve attached to bis resi- dence on H street, with a few personal friends ara apparently but 'itile perturbed by the pob- lication in question. ‘The Admiral stated in an- Swer to a question that he supposed the |» cat on was anotber attempt io defeat mation, but be psid but little attention to it, as he bad no idea that such warfare against him ‘ould injare iim in the minds of honorable men. ie h ‘owledge ax to who wrote tue com- tion, Dut saw it announced that it had been given for publication by General Butler. As to that gentleman, ke had nothing to say, but thought the animosity displayed hy General Butler had its origin at Fort Fisher. It his enemies desired to defeat bis confirmation, he weuld be glad to Lave them use honorable moans fo «lo £0, and not such dishonorable means as h iready been resorted to. He supposed that the letier was written for mischievous purposes by some one who had heard bim say, as he had frequentiy done, that he had never written the leged letter to Farragat; that if such letter ex- isted it was a forgery, and that if published he would endeavor to punish the offenders. The Admiral seemed tot ient that the pub- cation made jer would injure Dutler more than it would him, . dence, on D strect, last evening. Seciety.

Love and politics have brought about stranger results; but we imagine the com- Mnation was not needed in this tnetance. The new Senator lies ability, position, and imiiuence enough of bis own to enable him to make his way in the world without relying on the efforts ofa prospective father-in-law. iF —Mr. and Mre. J. M.

PROVIDENT AID SOCIETY, A meeting of the soclety for ameliorating the condition of the poor was held im the A meu’s chamber last evening, Major A. aré= in the chair. Mr. Wolf, from the commit- tee to wait on the Secretary of War in reterence to the balance the Congressional eppropri- ation made last winter, reported that he had waited on the Secretary, who referred him to Capt. Bridges. The letter stated that he had a balance of from $1,100 to ¥1,700 for distribution, that Birs. Giafling and the Industrial Home tready this winter drawn $1,200; ety did not draw their resjnisition early they would be unable to obtain anything Me turther suggested im relation to the $10,000 worth, of coudemned cloth: he relief of the poor, that at the time the Was Passed there was bU! $500 Worth of such clothing on band.

The Chair raid the police would co-operate with tho Society, aud that he had been apprized orbut lew deserving cases ot destitatiun this winter. Mr. A.S. Solomons offered a resolution, “That until farther ordered there be no turther ex- weuditure of the $150 assigned for each ward until after such time (if then be necessary) a8 the whole lalance to thecredit of (his assdcia- Von in the hands of the Secretary of War, be @ sposedof, cack ward drawing in proportion to their population.” He thought that with the limited number of necessitous they may get through with this amount without taxing the citizens. Dr. Ricord suggested that it would not be just to apportion according to population, as in some wards there were Many more Poor than in otuert in his ward (the 7th) there were three times the number of destitute person in proportion to the population than there were in otliers.J Mr. Hart auswered that when one ward had expended all its relief other wards could help it out. The resolution was adopted. Mr. Hart offered @ resolution: Shat a com- mittee, consisting of one director from each ward, be appointed to wait on Captain Bridges without delay, and make such arzangements as to draw supplies from him ior each ward, as far as our share of the remaining funds will permit; adopted, and the following were appointed dobn F.

The partic pants in this unwarrantable outrage are not to escape punishment. Gen.

Grant with the deliberate purpose of deteating Lis nomination. He will publish his private journal, in which are recorded tacts and circumstances extreme! injurious to B., and which B. docs not wist to be known. It is believed B. would have no diffculty in getting any letter produced im P.'s arent handwriting. as he has many old le! ters from him, probably, now in bis possession. P. bas many of the strongest and ablest papers in the United States now ready to take up his cause; to attack and expose all parties arrayed against him. ‘He is president of the Mississippi association, having abont 1.500 members.

The Fraudulent Helmbolds, the Genuine Hetmbold Protects His Cusio- mers and the Public Against Pirates. From the Chicago Tribune, January 5 Dr. Henry T. Helmbold, or New York city, bas been out on the war path recently, and the tield of his operations has been the city of C a Dr. Lelmbold is widely known throngh- owt this country ction with the celebra- ted * Buehu, an eflicacioas remedy for mary of the ills which flesh is heir to. Th great demand for this preparation led cer- tain unprincipled persons to get up a spurivus article of the kind, and to trade upon the Doc- tor’s reputation. It appears that six months ago Dr. Helmboid learned that counterfeiters How were at work, and (hat the market was boi flooded with | spur name. The manufac was fuaily found to d at the rear et Washington street, Chicago. The cow Twas & furmer » aud now engaged in the manufacture ing beds. liis piratical adventure was suggested to hi by the names of two Germans, George and F.itz Helmbold, which be f rectory. They were both poor, unsop t men, one ot them being a mere boy, ignorant even of the English language. Whittier made a written contract with them, whereby he agreed to pay them $1,000 per annam for their | making sprivg bed frames, and the additional sum of €10 per month for the use of their name in the making ot medicinal preparations. Having thus provided himself with a good name, Whit ticr proceeded to istue a preparation’ called “ Helmbold's Buchu,” with wrappers and labels elovely resembling those of the genuine article, ‘The real Helmbold soon heard of the fraud, and Le at once made a Ccscent upon the enemy. Whittier found himeeli enjoined by Judge Drummond of the United States Circuit Court from proceeding further in the fraud. An action was also commenced against him in the fate court, in which damages wore laid at $2,000, while proce dings were said to be in con- templation for his indictment for conspiracy. Sworn aMdavits of George F. and Fritz Helm. bold were placed in the hands of Dr. Heimbolil’s attorney, disclosing the manner in which their pames had beencbtaincd. Under these cireum- stances, Whittier resolved upon an uncondi- tiowal surrender, He delivered up the key of his laboratory, aud handed over his lithograph stones, electrotypes, plates, dies, stamps, and all the material and equipments of his business, with a list of all parties who had purchased his spurious parations, and the names of those to whom it bad been consigned, or who were in any way connected with Lis uetarious business, He also gave a bond in $20,000 that he would abstain frcm similar trespasses for the futare. Dr. Helmbolg’s object in tins promptly ehecke ing the operations of the baa counterfeiter was less with a view to punish the pirate than to secure the public against any similar frands that may be aitempted.
