NEW YORK HERALD, THURSDAY, MAY 22, 1862. NEWS FROM WASHINGTON. Wasnmvaron, May 21, 1862. ‘PIPTY THOUSAND MORE VOLUNTEERS TO BE CALLED FOR. ‘The President has decided that fifty thousand more ‘volunteers shall be accepted. This is to fill up regiments ~which have been thinued out by wounds and sickness, “and to form a reserve under drill for the future, which may be ready at the decisive moment and point. REPORTS FROM GEN, BANKS AND GEN. M’DOWELL. Despatches received at the War Department, up to ten o'clock to-night, from Generals McDowell and Banks, «report all quiet in their departments. THE TAX BILL IN THE SENATE. Notwithstanding the solemn threat of certain Sena- “tors to hold their refusal to take up the Tax bill in terro- rem over the head of the President, tos¢are or drive him ‘into a compliance with their programme of conducting ‘tho war, the bill was taken up to-day, and will be acted ‘upon without delay, It will probably be shaped and ypassed before the end of the month, The impression jprevails that Senator Simmons’ substitute, which is more -gimple in its provisions than the House bill, will finally Ye adopted. THE CONFISCATION BILLS. ‘The Confiscation bills were put aside in the Senate, with +a.view of waiting for the action of the House upon the «similar. measores now pending there. Whichever of *tnem shall be adopted by the House will, it is said, be paased in the Senate without debate. * The House devoted itself to-day to the further con- esideration of the confiscation measures. The speech of Mr. Mallory was a powerful, dignified and oloquent ~defence of the border States, and an earnest appeal for -conservative action. It produced a marked effect upon sghe House. ‘The laying aside of the Confiscation bill in the Sonate, sand the taking up of the Tax bill, are regarded as signs of returning reason. The plan to pay the expenses of the ‘war by confiscation alone, and of arming the negroes to <earry it on, does not seem to find favor with the people. TREASURY BONDS, Sheets of the denomination of one thousand dollars of ithe 5-20 Treasury bonds are just reaching here. Others ‘are to follow of the denomination of fifties, one hundreds, five hundreds and five thousands. These bonds of small samount furnish a good source of investmont to men of ‘small meaus, and create with the body of the substan- ‘tial population a personal interest in the goyernmont se- <curities. ‘QBMI-OFFICIAL EXPLANATION OF THE FRENCH MINIS- TER’S VISIT TO RICHMOND. Permission has been given to state the facts in regard ‘to the French Minister’s visit to Richmond, which has ‘excited so much attention in this country and in Europe. M. Mercier had no instructions from his govern- mont, nor had it tho least knowledge of his intention to ‘go toRichmond, M. Mercier, in conversing with Mr. Seward, expressed his regret that he could not see Richmond and judge for himself about the views and ex- Pectations of the insurgents. Mr. Seward said he could go without any objection from the government; that he wished every foreign minister would go, and seo for “himself how hopeless the insurrection was. M. Mercier ‘went unofiicially; he heard and saw for himself, of course, in no way acting or speaking for his ;government or compromising his relations towards the United States. The President was previously consulted, and approved of his going. When he returned he called immediately on the Socrétary and afterwards upon the President, and communicated tothem frankly the im. pressions that he received. He allowed no oue in Rich- mond to say anything to him that he should not be at liberty to communicate to the Secretary of State; and ‘ihe neither communicated to the rebel leaders anything from this government nor anything from them to the government. He held no. official communication with anyone, nor did he permit himself to receive any official attentions. I, Mercier’s whole conduct in the transac- ‘tion was discreot, loyal and friendly, 4 CASE UNDER THE FUGITIVE SLAVE ACT. Much interest was excited in a case before the Com- -amissioners nnder the Fugitive Slave law to-day, Charles 1. Hill, of Maryland, claiming a man, Stephen, as his slave. Bradley and Carlisle for the claimant, and Mr. "Dean, of Brooklyn, for Stephon. Mr. Dean submitted the points, first, as to whethor the Commissioners will exercise their discretion in allowing the cross-examination of the claimant's witnesses, and secondly whether they wil) -allow testimony oontrary to that of the claimant as to Adentity, loyalty. &c., contending that under the prac: tice, both in England and in this country, in ex parte and ‘summary proceedings, both criminal and quasi criminal, othe magistrate is bound to exercises sound discretion ‘dn the mode of ascertaining the facts, and that both ele. ‘mentary and decided law are uniform in exacting from the magistrate the exercise of such discretion. The ar- gumont took # wide range. The spectators were prin- sipally composed of persons from Maryland, who are ‘fere for the purpose of recovering their fugitive slaves: fhe Commissioners—Walter 8. Cox, James L. Phillips ang Dharles M. Mathew—resorved their decision till to-mor- tow. THE BANKRUPT BILL. A last offort is on foot to get up the Bankrupt bill in the Senate. The new bill has been carefully prepared, -and commends itself to favor. It is singular that a mea’ sure, which all admit to of vital importance to the vommercial interests of the loyal States, should be allow- 1d to languish and fail for want of enorgetic and porsist- ing efforts on the part of those most interested in its pas- THE MILITARY GOVERNOR OF NORTH CAROLINA. Mr. Stanly, the new Military Governor of North Ca- jolina, upon his arrival out, will most necessarily take ap his quarters in tho family mansid® of the Staulys at Newbern, where he was born, forty years ago. His lather, John Stanly, was tho foremost man of the State. fhe history and character of the son indicate that he may sit as high in all tho people's hearts. Gencra! Stanly fully comprebends that there is a venemous ole- ment here which is constantly opposing the adminis- ‘wation and playing into the hands of the rebels. THE ARMOR OF 1HE GALENA. ‘The armor of the Galena, which was piorcod by the arojectilos of the rebel battery below Richmond, was but fhree inches thick. The gunboats on the Western waters we all thinly plated and but partially clad. Hence the aecessity of the six-inch plates that have beon ardered for the threo new gunboats of the Monitor style that aro now in process of wection in New York. Tho Monitor has thus far stood ‘he firo with her five-inch plates; but as guns of enormous alibre and projectiles of great momentum are iu vogue, it is safo to increass the thickness of the armor.

Tho New York dologation in Congross wiil hold a con- sronee on Friday morning on the subject of a national oundry on the Hudson river and the coinage depart. aont of the Assay Oilice. It is believed that the Coinage -all will be passed notwithstanding the strenuous oppo. ition of Pennsylvania, RETURN OF 1 NTATIVE BEGAR. Hon.

THR CASE OF LIKUTENANT COLONEL REYNOLDs, The Court Martial which has been in session for ten <fays past for tho trial of Lioutenant Colonol John C, Reynolds, of the Marine corps, concluded its labors yes. terday. The verdict of the court was made up within» fow minutes after the case was closed, Although it has not yet beon promulgated, there is reason to believe that A ecquils Colonel Reynolds entirely of all the charges preferred against him, and restores him watarvished in name, to the position in which he has proyed himself one of the most valuable and efficient officers in the corps, PROCEEDINGS OF CONGRESS. , PHIRTY-SEVENTH CONGRESS.

Mr. Laws, (rep.) of Kansas, spoke against the bill, as tending to take away all the lands of Kansas, not leaving an acre for school purposes in that State, It was unjust to that State, where every other votor was serving the country inthe army. ‘The discussion continued till one o'clock. ‘THE ORDER OF BUSINESS. The spocial order being the Confiseation bill, Mr, Fessenpsn, (rep.) of Me., moved to tako up tho Tax bill. ‘THE IMPRACHMENT OF JUDGE HUMPHREYS.

Ho was perfectly willing to trust the President with power. He commended the course of the President in regard to Gen. Hunger’s proclamation. That proclama- tion was entirely foreign to Gen. Hunter’s character, aud he could not explain it, unless Gon. Huntor was led on by some one else or had got the Presidential fo if the latter, hehad a great deal bettor have the yellow iever, which was less dangerous aud sooner recovered from. He should vote to take up the Tax bill. DESPATCH FROM THE PENINSULA. Mr. Laraam, (opp.) of Cal., sent to the Clork’s desk = despatch from Gen, McClellan, concerning the advance of the army, which was read. Mr. Hane’s, (rep.) of N. ¥., should yote to tako up the Tax bill, as Le regarded it as the most important measure. ‘The poople of his State weuld probably have to pay one- quarter of the proposed: tax, and they are ready for it, and want to ace it and look it in the face. Mr. Sumer, (rep.) of Mass., said a charactor in one of Dickens’ works says, if you take @ bit of orange-pedl, put it m a glass of\ water and make believe very hard, you would hay very strong drink. He regarded tho Conflscation kill reported from thecom- mittee like such drink—it a1 ts to nothing, He wae willing to appeal to the Senator ‘from Vermont (Mr. ‘Col- jamer) that it was not a Confiscation bill, but was a mere nonentity. ‘Therefore he should vate to take up the Tax bill and wait tho action of tho other House. ‘Mr. VoLLamun, (rep,) of Vt., disclaimed committee who attempt to dupe and deceive the poople by making such a bill «8 the Senator Massachusetts accused him of. He thought this rather discourteous, and that there bad been a great deabof domineering here like thecrask of aslave driver’s whip. He had acted with integrity, and been governed by his own con- victions of what was right. ‘Mr. CLar« repelled any idea that anybody had been deceived. He had dono what he done frankly and open- ly,and he did not like this sort of denunciation and rebuke. Mr. Gnuces said he was in favor of a stringont bill, but because he could not get what he wanted he was not going to refuse anything, but would take the best he could get. He thought there was no doubt the Tax bill would be passed w! the time came, but ho was in favor of finishing this bill, now that we were in the middle of it. Mr. TxUMBCLL, (rep.) of IIL., should vote against taking up the Tax bill. thought we had best go on with this bill, and see if we could not strengthen and make better. Mr. Fessenpxy said he had made @ motion to take up the Tax bill, for he despaired of getting a vote on tho Contiscation Dill. It was a regular game to drive it ove for the bill from the Houso, aud he did not wish to post. pone so important a measure as the Tax bill for such a Aner After further discussion, tho motion was put on its passage with the following result:— ; Yvas—Messrs, Anthcny, Browning, Carlile, Cowan, Davis, Dixon Z trris, Hendersot one of 8 Fessenden, Foot.

DESPATCH FROM THE PRNINSULA. ‘The Associated I’ress despatch from Tunstall’s Station was read in the House to-day. It was listened to with marked attention. ‘TMK CONFISCATION MILL. bong! “ree resumed the consideration of the Confisca- tion bill. Mr. Voornm, (opp.) of Ind.,reviowed the financial policy which has governed the administration since it caine into power, characterizing it as unsound, unwise and ruinous, ‘The criminals who have been plundering the Trovsury have not been brought to justice, nor has honesty pervaded the departments, History will on this subject cause every lover of his country to bow hishead, while his cheek burns with shame, because of the extra- vagance and shamelessness of expenditures, By means of mismanagement and fraud the public debt a year hence will bo one-sixth fo the entire wealth of the couutry, Now the proportion to evory voter is two hundred dol- lars; twelve months from this time it will be four hut dred, Where was the evidence that any other people had been so burdened within so short a time. He iaight Le met with the familiar cry that these vast expondi- tures aro necessary to carry on the war. To this he in- terpused an explicit denial, come from whatever quarter itmight. The Mexican war, tough carried on in a dig- tant country, cost for every man less than one-fourth what was how oxpended; but fraud and crime had swollen the enormous burden on patriotic and honest people, ‘This he stood ready to prove. He alluded to the results of the intestiguting committees to support nisiar- gument, In conclusion, he expressed the hope and pre- dicted that tho people would rise in their might and send hither representatives who will be governed by tho toachings of the Bible and the constitution, and that the Union will bo re-established on the principles of justice and Christianity. In the course of his rem Mr. Voorhees mveighed bit- terly against the corruptions of the administration, und its countenance o those who had been censured by Congress, and condemned by the whole country, for their shametul peculations and frauds upon the Treasury. The President, he sid, had seat Simon Cameron to represent tho United States at the Court of St. Petersburg, with a yoto of consure of the House of Representatives upon him. He had continued fu office the Secretary of 'y chargod also with denling in contracts inimical to the interests of the government; and he (the Prosident) had roappoiuted Gen. Fremont to an important commaad of the army, in tho tae of the most shameful frauds per- be ‘by him while imcommand of the Department of the West. Mr. Menares., (rep.) of Vt. expressed his surprise at the gevtieman’s extraordinary speech. Lhe gentleman suid at the ond of another year the national debt will be two Humdred mitiions of duflars, and the interest over vie hnitrod midions, to say outhing of the attacks on a adm tation, which is doing all it can to put down the rebellion inangurated by the yeutieman’s own party. He would remind the gentleman: that our armies are in part commanded by democratic aud if thore i# any extravagance or responsi- y MUS take their due share. The oflice of eretary of War is iilled too by a democrat. Tho charge came with an ill grace from the gentleman. When the facts shall bo investigated he (Mr, Morrill) would be as willing as the gonticman to lolingvents with just punishmeni,and bi ‘ibbets for execra- tion in all time to come. Hs thought there would be found as many of them in the democratic as in any other party. In rejation to the expenditures he would morely say, tho entire amount of the aporovriatioon for the year ending 1862 is $586,000,000, and for that ending 1963 54,000,000, so if the war continues then till the end of another year the expenditure will not exceed $1,120,000, 000. The present debt, including the old, ts a little over $60,000,000. The interest, even over six per centum, Would uct be more than $49,000,000. Admitting that the war will continue another year, the interest would ot be over $75,000,000 per annum.’ Phere was bope, how ever, thit the war will be closed long before 1863, ifs, of corse our expenditures will be laigely diniurshed. With regard to the ability of our poople io support an enor. mous load of taxation, he stated that those of England wore taxed to the amount of one-fourth of their annual income. We could support four thousand iillious of debt, and not be more heavily taxed than they ai To show the real value of our securities wo have oniy to go into the money market of the world—into Wall street or Chestnut street. These securities at this moment there bear a premium. Mr. Kenny, (rep.) of Pa,—It seems to me that tho re- marks of the gentleman (Mr. Voorhees) demaud some immediate suggestions in reply. He says we live in strange times; und in so far lagree with him. Itseemed to me, as I listened to him, that I could not be in the halls of an American Congress—that I had been translated to some other place, or that the gentleman had mistaken his forum, ior Tam quite sure that the speech he made, if made in the halls of the Southorn confederacy, its weil rounded periods would have drawn down vehement pitu- dits. The corruptions of the administration of Abrabam Lincoln, he says, are sadiling the laborers of whe country with burthens they cauuot bear, and destroying the value of the property of the country. Was John B. Floyd, I would ask him, a member of Abraham Lincoin’s Cabinet? And it was he who stole the arms of the go- verument to stock Southern arsenals, that they might be put into the handsof rebels tocarry on this war. Was Howell Cobb a membor of Abraham Lincoln's Cabi- net? And he it was who purposoly brought down the credit of the country, $0 that at twelve per cont por an- hum we could not borrow inour own market the bulf of a loan of five millions, and which caused bu- rope to turn up, I may say, her nose at the idea of American security and Americun ‘credit. Was Jacob Thompson a member of the Lincoln Cabinet? And yet it washo who stole our Indian bonds. ‘Was Toucey a member of the Lincoln Cabinet? And yot it-was he that dismantie@ the only two ships he per- mitted to rymain in our waters. while he sent all the others beyond reach of the voice of tho President or of any of his Ministers, Were these men, and the other scroundrels associated with them, members of the pre- sent administration, or of that administration the over- throw of which the gentleman mourua’ I have heard of Satan reproving sin, or darkeys calling each otuer biack, but nover witnessed an illustration of it on so grand’a scale as this before, Mr, Voortizes—I rise— ‘The Srzaken—Docs tho gentleman yield? Mr. Kxtty—I do not yield. Mr. Voortumes—You shall yield. (Cries of ‘‘order.”) Mr. Kxtay—No, sir; I shall not yield to you. Mr. Voontexs—I say it 18 fase, all faise; and I de- nounce the gentleman as a calumniator. The Sreaxen—Ordor, order, Mr. Voouuke:—1 will allow no man—— The Sreakse interrupted tho member from Indiana, who he declared was out of order, Order being restored, Mr. Kei proceoded—I am op- posed to all swindling, sir, either in fact or thought, and to all covert attempts to delude and seduce the people from their patriotism and honest convictions, I believe in honosty and veracity, and Isay that the present condition of the country the natural result of the training its people received at the hands of the democratic party. (Cries of ‘‘Good.”") It mace our country a plunderer of hatioi8, provided they wore feeble. Under it fiibustering became synonymous with democracy during the two last administrations, ‘Thore was no pringipie of honesty or of veracity that the democratic party ,asrepresented in the Pierce aud Bu- chanan adminisiraties, leit to the people of the country. And if this war be am expensive and a corrupt ove, I prey you bear in mind, as the country will, that Abraham Lincoln "found well trated pupils in all the departments and bureaus. This administration had left skilled scholars iu the army of contractors to muke the most of their inexperienced suc- cessors, and it docs not lie in the mouth of any adherent of either of these administrations—of one who soeks to resuscitate the party which sustaived them—to rebuke tho republican party, or Abraham Lincoln, on those points. Will anybody who reads the remarks of the gen. tleman (Mr. Voorhees) be able to say whether he ap- proves of the rebellion, whetner he thinks the war should not have commenced, whether he wishes to make an in- glorious peace to-day, and to stipulate a peace on condi- tion of paying the expenses of the rebels if they guaran- tee us peace in the Ixture? What are his views upon some leading points? Did Abraham Lincoin fire upon Fort Sumtor? Did the republican party steal the forts and arsenals and mints of tho Seuth? What did'the ropubli- cun party do tu bring on the war? They asked that the ernment should be administered as Washington and jetterson administerod 4ts'That is what the party wishod to have dune, and what oe! desired to do when they came into power. And shall those who encourageil the rebels to strike, and who have had no condemnation for them to this day, say that the republican party is re- sponsible for the costs of: this war? ‘Mr. Voonuuss again sought the floor. Tho Sreaker—Does the gentleman yiold? Mr. Kruiy—Not exeept there’ is some rule of honor which gives him the right to the floor—I do not, ‘Mr. Vooruees—A sense of fairness demands it. Mr. Kxrty—The gentleman himself declined to yield to a gentleman who simply wanted to correct bis figures. It ts true, the burthens of this war will tall heavily upon the labor of the country; bat how much heavier will it fall if we fail to tax the property of the South—it we fail to make the South pay @ just proportion of the o: penses of the war—if we fail to listen to the voice of the gentlemen from Missouri (Mr. Noell), who yesterday urged us to pass a confiscation bill to take the property of the rebels in Missouri, and of the rebels of the other States, and appropriate it to the expenses of the war? What does the gentleman (Mr. Voorhees) propose to do? Why, not one single practical suggestion dces his speech embody; not one word of encouragement to the soldiers in the Held, er to the soldier’s wile at home, bas he spoken. Armfl yet how does his speech teem with inspiration when speaking of the rights of robels and their counsellors? Look at the credit of the country. Let the world say what it thinks of the hones- ty and fairness of the administration. A little more than a year ago Mr. Lincolm became President of the United States. On the 4th day of July last the Ame- rican Congress assembled to receive his first message. ‘Thon your treasury was bankrupt, your paper bad been bawked about the streets at twelve per cent per an- num, your bonds were coming home to be sold at any sacrifice from every land where people had invested in your credit, your own people had coufidence, but it bo- came apparent that the democratic party was dead, with all its dishonesty of purpose and its barbarism—dead, sir, beyond all hope of resurrection, and that in its stead havesty of purpose, wisdom and patriotism bad taken possession of the reins of power. What was tlie sub- stance or ebjectof the gentieman’s speech’ Was it an invective aguinst the corruption of the government? Was it a spcech upon tho tariff, or omancipation? or was it, after all, but mere election clap. trap? It could not be discovered from it that we aro ongaged in @ war—that we do live in times cf which the late Mr. Douglas spoke as follows:— «There can be no neutrals in this war, there can be only patriots or traitors.” Ibis not a party question, nor a question iuvolving partisan politics; it is a quosticn of goveriment Orne governm-nt, coantry or no country, What i, the gentleman from indiana for—government or no government, for cuuntry or no country? Indovd, she last ta easily answered, for if we wero to declare peace to-day, upon such terms as the gentleman ind:cates, we wouid have no country and no.gevernment or party tor us. We must be on one side or the other now. ‘There must be victory for the rebels or victory for the government. Wo have come to the final trial of arms, and the great question can ov be settled by one side or the other having their necks iht under the heels of the other. The genticman tells usbe does not want to sev the necks of the rebels brought under our heels, I tell him, sir, that the couney will not allow their necks to be brought under the heels of rebels; thereiore the fight must be fought to tho bitter end, and if need be a subjugated. people will be ruled by that people whose constitution ts tl w of the land they occupy. Mr. Lawarea, (rep.) of N. ¥., advocated the passage of the Confiscation vill. He held that the slaves of rebels should be emancipated, as @ means of prosecuting the wi ‘They should be stripped of their property, their 1 hanged—every portion of the insurrectionary States subjugated to the dominion of the federal autho- rity; and not only should the career of the vandals, rob- bers and criminals be stopped, but measures taken against a recurrence of insurrection. Mr. Matuory, (Union) of Ky., believed, at the present juncture of public affairs, that it would be inexpedient to ‘adupt any act of confiscation or forfeiture of the estates of rebels engaged in this wicked and unprovoked rebel- lion, with which, it was known, he had no sympathy. In the course of his romarks, he said the scoundrels and traitors, both North and South, had discovered that agi- tation of the siavery question was one of the most eifi- cient weapons for the destruction of this goveruinent, and accordingly availed themselves of it. He solemnly declared that the condition of slavery is the very best in which the African race can be placed, and had no respect for that species of conduct which would turn the negroes free but yet exclude them from the free states. The Lord deliver him from such benevolence—making the slaves outcasts. Mr. Bixauam, (rep.) of Ohio, replied that a majority of tho States do not exclude thom. ‘Mr. MALLOY inquired whether the gentleman would throw open the doors of the great and nobie State of Ohio to three millions of freed negroes? ir: Wiontam, (Union) of Ky-When did you repeal ir. Wickurrr, (Union — ou rey the law which prohibited it? " Mr. BINGHAM—As soon as we turned the democratic party out of power. Mr. Mauuory wished to know whether tho gentleman was willing that the blacks should compete with free labor. When the blacks swarm that State like locusts, the gentioman woul close the door by legislation. ‘Mr, Brvumam had no idea that any man born on our soil should be excluded frem the limits of amy State. Mr. Covax, (rep.) of Ind., said the sentiment of the ee) -9 weearee Sal the oes of the peop! ‘s00n as mocrats regain power will close the door. ” ir. Mattony concluded his remarks, when the House Rewer POR THe Poor or Ine.aNp.—A meeting was held at thy Astor House, yesterday afternoon, by some of the leading morchants , lawyers and others of Irish birth and descont, for the purpose of organiziag a movement whoreby a fund can be raised for the retio€ of the Irish peasautry, now suffering from absolute famine in the west and south of Ireland. Judge Daly jided, and Judgo O'Conor acted as Secretary. An itive Com- mittee was appointed to carry out the intention of the meeting, aud it was resolved that a public meeting should be called for that purpose. Among those present were Mr. Richard O'Gorman, who explained the object of the meeting as originating in an appeal from the:*Mansion House Committee,” in Dublin, based upon facts show ing the fearful condition of the Irish people at this juncture, and many other gentiomen well known in this com- munity, such as J.

EDWIN P. CHRISTY. Mr. E. P. Christy, the well known Ethiopian performer whose attempted suicide about oleven days ago created such a sousation, expired at throe o'clock precisely yes. terday morning, at his residence, No. 78 Kast Eighteenth street. For the last two days his recovery soemed to be hopeless, us he failed very rapidly, growing worse and worse hourly, until about a quarter past two o’clock on Wednesday morning, when all the signs indicating that death was at hand made themselves visible. Mr. Christy evidently realized that the stroke of death was upon him, for he summoned all the members of his family to his bedside and bade them an affectionate farewoll. He was perfectly rational to the last moment, and died, we are informed, almost without a struggle. His last moments were cheered by the presence of his aged mother, wife, brother, and afew intimate friends of the family. Mr. Christy was a native of Philadelphia, and at the time of his death was forty-seven years and seven months old. AS a great many erroncous statements have appeared in all the papers, relative to the causes ani cir- cumstances surrounding his attempted suicide, we are requested to publish a few facts on the subject. In the first place it is: authoritatively denied that for a long period preceeding his death he’ showed symptoms of a diseased mind, or that he expressed fours that he would coms to waut op account of the Southern rebellion. Whatever he may have said about the ruin that would come upon him in the event of the rebels succeeding and coming North, is believed to have been nothing more than what =a hive beon said by any person possessed of considerable pri and calculating the dangers Surrounding it. On‘Friday, May 9, ho is stated to have shown nothing unusual in his conduct that would lead to the supposition of insanity. About six o'clock on the evening of that day ho was seated in a back parlor on the second floor, when his wife said to him, ‘‘Come Edward, come down stairs; T’ve got some nice soup for you in the kitchen.” Mrs. Christy immediately left tho room, went down stairs, and had just reached the kitchen when she heard some- ‘thing fail heavily in the yard. She looked cut in the Fs |, and almest instantly screamed out, ‘Oh, my God, " ”” Without d@@!ay the servants were sum- assistance of Mr. Christy, who was insensi- ble for a short time, but recovered consciousness while he was being lifted up. So far rational was he that he dictated how he should be carrivd upto bed, oxcluim- ing, ‘Let me boss the job,” ‘let me dictate how I am to be brought up,” or something to that effect. On being conveyed to his bedroom medical attendance was pro- cured, and the injuries were found to be of a most serious character. He fell doubled up like a ball upon the stone flagging of the yard, striking his head, two knees, tne wrist of the right hand and the forefinger of the left hand. One of the bones of the neck was also fractured, a plece of the bone pressing against the spine, which is jpposed to have occasioned the paralysis hich fol- lowed. Mr. Christy would give no explanation of theact, further than a simple statement that at the mo- ment he made the fatal leap from the se cond story window he felt as if he could jump over an enclosed piece of ground intended for a grass plot in the back yard. While under this singular delusion he is supposed to have opened the window and to have attompted the hazardous feat which resulted in his death. During the whole of his Jaat illness he is said to have been perfectly rational, The physicians in attendance were Drs. Markon, Co/ine and Dash. The funeral will take place at one o’clock to-morrow, and the remains will be temporarily deposited in the receiving vault at Greenwood Cemetery. Mr. Christy’s career as a manager of Ethiopian min strelsy is s0 well known hore as not to require an ex- tended notice. gHe is almost the {ather of negro min- trelsy, as he was the first to raise it to its present high standard; and he it was who introduced the most promi- nent and attractive features that belong to that pleasing and peculiar line of amusements, About sixteen years ago he opened at Mechanica’ Hall (Broadway), now occn- pied by Bryants’ Minstrels, with’ a splendid company of performers, including the rsnowned George, and so suc- cessful wore his exhibitions that hundreds were turned away nightly. His success lasted for sevoral years, until some disagreements broke up his company or deprived it of its loading’stars. meantime Mr.C. bad amassed a large fortune, and could well afford to retire on his im- mense profits. After gen ‘up the minstrel business he gehen considerably, with great luck, and at the time his death is said to have been worth all of $200,000. DEATH OF JOHN DREW, THE IRISH COMEDIAN. By telegraph from Philadelphia, we learn of the sud: den death of Mr. Joun Drew, the greatest Irish come- dian since Power's time. Mr. Drew died at his own re- sidence in Philadelphia, at half-past four o'clock yester- day afternoon, probably from disease of the heart. John Drow was about thirty-five years old. Ho was born in Dublin. Ireland, and entered the English navy when a mero boy. When very young he went upon the stage, and by slegroes attained a world-wide reputation in Irish characters. In Europe, America and Aus- tralia he was equally popular. Only a few months ago, after concluding a splendid engagement with Mr. Bourci- cauit in England, he returned to this country, and two since completed an engagement of one hundred nights at his wife's Arch street theatre, Phila- Tast week Mr. Drew was in New York, fotgd 0 mombers of his profession. June next purposed to return to England to pidy a - jago- ment. Man proposes and God disposes. Nothing but ‘a lifeless corpse remains to us of John Drew—the popular actor, the polished gentleman, the Irish Yorick, the fast friend, the good fellow—except his pleasant memory. Among the passengers who sailed for Europe yostor- day in the steamship Australasian was Chevalier Hulso. mann, the Austrian Minister to Washington. Vice President Hannibal Hamlin arrived at tho Astor House early yesterday morning, when he was waited on by Collector Barney, Surveyor Andrews and many othor prominent members of the republican party. He left for ‘Washington in the six o’clook train last evening via Philadelphia and Baltimore. Sir Thomas Tobin, of England; Captain Judkins, of the steamship Scotia; SS E.

Police Intelligence. Taw Concert’ Savoon Quastion—Descent Urow Tur Stavr TuxavRs.—At a late hour on Tuesday night the Tenth Precint police made a descent upon the Stadt theatre in the Bowery, and arrested the proprietor, Ed- ward Harman, for violating the Concert Saloon law in Selling liquor upon the premises during the perform- ances, Subsequently the barkeeper, Christian Hints, and a number of the attaches of the establishment were arrested; but, on being brought before Sustice Steers yesterday morning, they were all discharged, with the exception of Messrs. Harman and Hintz. ‘Ihe actors and actresses especially wore very indignant at being dragged to 4 station house, merely because their em- ployer thought fit to sell alittle lager to Lis patrons, and threatened to gue the police for false imprisonment. The captain {reated them very pulitely, and said he was obeying the orders of Superintendent Kennody, who was very particular in his injunctions to arrest the entire party, without any distinction whatever. The action of Justice Steers, however, had a very moilifying effect upon the playors, and they departed from the court room in the best possiblo humor. The examina- tion in the case of the proprietor of the theatre and his was set down for two o’olock yesterday after- noon, but, in-consequence of the business engagements Rheumatism, Scrofala, Old Ulcers and all diseases of the blood.—HYATT’S LIFE BALSAM is » most certain remedy for these disbases.
