THE TRIAL. Considerable time was lost yesterday in the trial of the ‘“@ssagsination conspirators by the dilatorinoss of witnesses fm making their appoarance. Additional witnesses were produced by the defence for She purpose of impairing the testimony against Dr. Mudd, and to show that the prisoner Arnold was em- Ployod at Fortress Monroe from tho 2d to the 17th of April. Dr. Mudd’s counsel announced that subponas for thirteen additional witnesses on his behalf had been feaued. The prosecution produced persons who testified to the ood character of Lewis A. Weichman, an important Witness against some of the accused, whose evidence has already been published. 4 Tho prosecution also produced additional testimony Segarding tho visits to Mrs. Surratt’s house of Booth, Payno and Atzerott. Payne was known there by diffor- fat names, Wood being one of thom. The intimacy of Booth, Payne and John H. Surratt was likewise further Rostified to. THE SITUATION. , Lieutenant General Grant arrived in this city at six p’clock yosterday morning, accompanied by his family aad part of his staff. The entire party put up at the \Astor House. Am enthusiastic ovation was tendered the Lieutenant General by our citizens, In the forenoon and afternoon he held levers in the parlors of the Astor House, at which some six thousand persons attended. he usual custom of handshaking was adopted, and the Gonoral was compelled to undergo this severe ordeal for several hours. At four o'clock adinner took place pt tho hotel, at which thirty gentlemen sat down. In afternoon the General drove out to the Central Park, ‘und at eight o'clock called at the rooms of the Union Voague. Last night the General was serenaded by the Beventh regiment band. Speeches were made upon the pocasion by Major General John A. Logan and Senator Chandler. An immense movting was hold last night at tho Sooper Tnstitute for the purpose of expressing the joy of fhe people over the restoration of peace and the unity of She nation, their determination to uphold the govern- Mont and thoir confidence in President Johnson. Tho Proceedings were most enthusiastic. General Grant was Present, and was wildly welcomed by the audience, Speeches were mado by a number of gentlemen, includ- ing Major General Logan, commander of the Army of the ‘Tonneasoo, and Major Genoral Frank P. Blair, command- fing the Seventeeuth army corps. @ Aworder has been issued from the War Department, Wy direction of the President, for the immediate dis- ‘charge from imprisonment, upon taking the oath of alle- Biance, of all enlisted men of the rebel army and navy, and officers of the army not above the grade of captain, and of the navy not abovo the rank of lieutenant, except ing such as aro excluded from the benefits of the am- nosty proclamation. : Our governmont, it is stated, has formally demanded of that of Spain the surrender of the late rebel raw Stone- wall, now lying in the harbor of havana; but sufficient time for a reply to be received has not elapsed since the demand was mato. Havana advices to the 3d instant wer received oy tho the steamship Columbia, which arrived {hore yosterday. Admira! Godon's American squadron, destined for tho Brazilian waters, continued to be the grand sensation at Havana, and not only with the Ha. Daneros themselves, for people were flocking thither from all parta of Cuba to take a look at the wonderfal ‘Yankee Monitors of the Admiral's flect, whose decks ‘woro daily thronged with crowds of curious visitors. Brory facility was given to the Cubans for viewing these _ to them marvellous naval structures, and the officers and mon wore nearly worn out by the constant pressure on their attention and courtesy and by answering the endless questions of their astonished and delighted guests, The Cubans, howover, had, by bails, soirees and in othor ways, used every effort in their power to make social recompense for the hospitalities of their naval visitors. Entertainments have been given to the American officors by the Captain General, tho \ Port Captain and other officials, Admiral Godon's : squadron was expected to leave Havana on the 6th or ‘7th instant, ‘The rebel stoamor Owl, Captain Maffitt, was still at ‘Havana on tho 34 instant, and it was thought that efforts { would s000 be made to spirit her off to sea in the night. A number of the late crew of the fam Stonewall had @aipped on board the Owl. Emmons quantities of cotton, rosin and other native © egies have mado their appearance in tho streets of ~ Witmingtoa, MN.

Mr. Wendell Phillips has revised his speech recently delivered in Boston, in the published reports of which at the time he was represented to have advocated the re- pudiation of our national war debt, It was the repudia- tion of all rebel debts which Mr. Phillips favored. The following extracts relative to this matter are from the amended report of his speech :— “T look on reconstruction based on white suffrage as but another name for the assumption by the nation of the Confederate debt. The two things are parts of the same whole, * * * * I shall hold myself at liberty to co-operate with any party which puts on its banner, ‘Re- pudiation of all rebel debts,’ no matter how sacredly such a bastard Congress may have assumed them.” EUROPEAN NEWS. The arrival of the Africa at Halifax yesterday, with advices to the 28th ult., places usin possession of two days later European news Lord Palmerston, in the House of Commons, on the 26th ult., stated that the diplomatic correspondence with respect to the Alabama’s depredations was still going on, and that the question had been discussed in the most friendly and amicablo manner. The London pross discusses the question at great length. The London Times claims credit for British “neutrality,” and says England ‘‘now stands on its legal rights, and refuses to make any compensation where it has done no wrong.” The news of Joff. Davis’ capture had created considera- ble sensation in Europe. Politically tho intelligence was considered favorable; for had the rebel chief escaped toa foreign country a European war might have arison from the demand for his oxtradition. ‘The British government wore urged to ask the co- operation of America for the entire suppression of the slave trade, Prince Napoleon’s eulogy of America and his endorse- ment of the Moproe doctrine had drawn down upon him the censure of the Emperor. The Prince had accord- ingly resigned his position in the councils of tho empire. American securities had again advanced. In London on tho 27th alt. United States five-twenties stood at 6734 a 68. Consola on the 27th were quoted at91a91%. Cot- ton was quiet in the Liverpool market and unchanged. The panic in the India cotton trade was spreading Further failures were announced. Us NEWS. The heavy claims on Mexico of tho Messrs. Jecker, bankers, for advances made to the Mexican government under the administrations of Presidents Zuloaga and Miramon, have been finally settled by a deduction of sixty per cent from the amount claimed. By this arrange- ment between tho Messrs. Jecker and tho Franco-Mexi- can commission various guarantees and duties which were assigned to the claimants are disengaged. Warren Hose Company No. 29, of Philadelphia, arrived in this city yesterday and was received by Warren Hose No. 33, of New York, whose guests they aro during their stay in the Empire City. They wore received by Consti- tution Engine Company of Brooklyn in the afternoon, and entertained at dinner at Montague Hall, after which they returned to this city at nino o'clock last evoning, where a most brilliant reception awaited them, our fre- men parading in torchlight procession, They will remain in this city till Saturday. A final docree of distribution was entered yesterday in the United States District Court, before Judge Betta, in the case of the prize blockade running steamer Aunie and her cargo of five hundred bales of cotton and thirty tons of tobacco, captured off the entrance to Wilmington, N. G., on the 31st of October last. The proceeds of the ves- sel and cargo amount to $329,311, one half of which goes to the government and the other half to the officers and crews of the government steamers Niphon, Wilderness, Alabama, Kansas and Houqua. In the Strong divorce case, in the Superior Court, yes- terday, a motion was made, argued and granted for a commission on behalf of the defendant to take the testi- mony of Secretary of War Stanton and Major General Foster. The trial is set down to procoed at cleven o'clock this forenoon. A man named William Davis was yesterday awarded five hundred dollars damages by a jury in the Marine Court for an assault made upon him by a man named Mathew McSherry. The plaintiff is a liquor dealer, and complained that he was beaten in his own store by the defendant, or porsons brought to his establishmont through defendant's instrumentality. Tho injuries wore to the hand of the plaintiff, which was very severely cut. In tho Court of General Sessions yestorday James Meade, a hotel thief, was convicted of an attempt at grand larceny in entering a room occupied by Mr. Collis P. Huntington, of Sacramento, at the Metropolitan Hotel, on the 1st of May, with the intent to steal two bonds of Pacific Railroad stock, worth two thousand dol- lars. The prisoner was caught in the room, and, when searched, burgiar’s keys were found upon him. Re- corder Hoffman sent him to the State Prison for two years and six months, Joho Ruthven, a carman in the employ of Henry Maillard, 619 Broadway, was tried and convicted of embezzlement, in fatling to return forty-six dollars which he collected from the Hendrickson Express Company. Ferdinand Reichel pleaded guilty toan attempt to steal eight yards of cloth, worth forty-eight dollars, the property of Jacobs Levy. John A. McNamara pleaded guilty to forgery in the third degree, he having on the 14th of February offered a forged check for forty seven dollars, purporting to have been drawn by Z. Ring. Those prisoners were remanded for sontence. John A. Canter was placed on trial charged with having in his possession a large quantity of counterfeit money. Jefferson Stout, the witness for the people, testified that he met Canter in a saloon on Eighth avenue, and entered into negotiations with him for the purchase of seven thousand dollars worth of counterfeit bills on the Mechanics’ Bank of New Haven and the Northfield Bank of Massachusetts, Im the evoning it was tostifled Stout brought a detective with him to the house of the prisoner, in Fifty-first street, and on soarching tho house dics, presses and the materials for counterfeiting wore, it is alleged, found. Owing to a flaw in tho indict ment Canter was acquitted; put he will be tried on another amended indictment growing ont of this arrest. Within the last threo days the number of licenses granted by the Excise Commissioners has been fifteon. Thoy still continue to moot daily. Another sale of government cotton, comprising over fourteen hundred bales, seized at Mobile, took place yesterday atternoon at 111 Broadway. The qualities were principally middling, low middling and good ordinary, and the prices received ranged from twenty-two to thirty- two cents per pound. ‘The annual regatta of the Brooklyn Yacht Club took place yesterday. The winning boats were the Noupareil, Jennie Cable and Edna C. Tho sixteenth annual regatta of the New York Yacht Club will be commenced to-day. A number of yachts have been entered for the race, the starting time being half.past ten o'clock this forenoon. The starting point, instead of being from in front of the Elysian Fields, as herotofore, will be a flagboat anchored abroast of Owl's Hoad, Long Island. ‘The Grand Lodge of the Masons resumed their session yesterday, and transacted considerable important busi ess. Among the visitors was Brother Albert G. Mackey, Grand Secretary of the Masonie fraternity of South Caro- lina, The election of grand officers is fixed for ten o'clock this forenoon. A coroner's inquest was held yesterday in the case of John Abrahams, who received a mortal wound on Mon- day night, at 267 Rast Twoifth street, during « difficulty with a man named William Koefe, as reported in yestor- day's Hemato, The jury found that Abrabams’ death resulted from a stab inflicted by Keefe, and the latter was committed to the Tombs, to await the action of the Grand Jury. ‘The investigation in the case of the Duane strect Nquor dealers, chargod with sotting fire to their premises for the purpose of defrauding certain insurance compa- nies, commenced at the Tombs on Tuesday, was con- tinued yesterday, but not concluded. It will be resumed at one o'clock this afternoon. ‘The annual meeting of the Now Jersey Railroad and Transportation Company waa held in Jersey City yester- day, at which the annual reports were read and directors for the ensuing year elocted. On the conclusion of the business the stockholders made an examination of the workshops, and afterwards wore treated to a sail down the bay. A despatch from Chattanooga, Tenn., states that the officers of one of the Richmond banks, having the bank fasets in their charge, while recently on their way to that place, were attacked, near Washington, Goorgia, by robbers, who stole from them two bundred thousand dotiars, ‘Thero Waa & vory dostrugtivs feraade ia the peigifror- hood of Portland, Maine, on last Sunday afternoon. Forty or Afty barns were destroyed and a number of welling houses were injured. A great many orchards were also badly damaged, and fences were levelled for An accident occurred on the East Tonneasee and Vir- ginia Railroad, near Strawberry Plains, Tenn., carly last week, by which two soldiers were killed and forty or afty other persons Injured. The stock market was higher and moro active yoster- day, although it declined in the afternoon from the ¢%- treme prices of the morning. Government securities wore firm. Gold opened in the morning at 137%, closed in the afternoon at 13734, and at night at 1375. There was but little change in the commorcial situa- tion yesterday, the business im almost everything con- tinoing rather dull, with light transactions, Cotton coa- tinued heavy.

The Late Rebellion and Its Horrible De- velopments—Complicity Therein of the New York Copperhead Leaders. The copperhead leaders of the New York de- mocracy since the loss of their stock in trade, with Jeff. Davis and his Southern confederacy, have been and are industriously advertising themselves in the market for the management of the administration of “Andy Johnson.” They are hungry. They are ready to strike a bargain on accommodating terms. They still continue their antediluvian gibberish of State rights and democratic principles; but they are prepared to support any measures of the ad- ministration for a passport into the kitchen. They claim, in fact, a sort of hereditary right to manage the administration of Andrew Jobn- son, inasmuch as, like Breckinridge, Howell Cobb, Jake Thompson and Jeff. Davis, he be- longed to the democratic party before the war. A very brief statement of facts, how- ever, will serve to show that these copperhead leaders of the Northern democracy should have Qo more authority in the reorganization of our political affairs than the rebel leaders in the South. With the outbreak of the rebellion there was agrand uprising of all parties in the loyal States in support of the cause of the Union. During the first year of the war the masses of the Northern democracy appeared to be ab- sorbed in the war party of the administration. But in 1862, in consequence of the terrible dis- asters of General McClellan, the public mind became unsettled, and the Northern democracy boldly took the field against Mr. Lincoln’s ad- ministration, on the platform of “a more vigor- ous prosecution of the war.” On this platform they elected Horatio Seymour, Governor of New York, and carried all the Central States. Under these instructions President Lincoln removed General McClellan and proceeded to “a more vigorous prosecution of the war.” Thus by the 4th of July, 1863, with the great and important Union victories of Gettysburg and Vicksburg, the tables were turned again in favor ot the administration on the war platform. At this point the rebel managers at Richmond became satisfied that their cause was hopeless unless it could be aided by some powerful diversions in the North, in the way of revolutionary plots and conspiracies, and they proceeded to act accordingly. At this point, too, the copper- head leaders of the Northern democracy boldly took the field in favor of “peace at any price.” In the loyal State elections which followed, however, these traitorous peace factionists were swept aside, as by a tornado of popular wrath, from Maine to California. These suggestive rebukes from the people of the loyal States ought to have been sufficient for the Northern democracy; but they had. fallen into the hands of their copperhead lead- ers, and those leaders looked to the restora- tion, by fair means or by foul, and not to the destruction, of the old democratic balance ot political power held by slavery in the South. Their plan was not the subjugation of, but a capitulation to, Jeff. Davis. To this end, as the Presidential campaign of 1864 ap- proached, the affiliations of Northern copper- head leaders with Davis and his confederate- rebel managers at Richmond, began to take the shape of a systematic arrangement of treason- able plots and combinations, enveloping the North in a terrible network of conspirators, in- cluding gangs of spies, democratic engineers, election ruffians, land and water pirates, incen- diaries and assassins. They were supported by a seeret Canadian service fund of some three millions of dollars, more or less, placed by Jeff. Davis in the hands of his confidential fellow Mississippian, Jake Thompson, whose headquar- ters, as paymaster of all these conspirators, were established at Montreal. The work accomplished in behalf of Jeff. Davis through these instrumentalitics, will never be fully known. The “Sons of Liberty” in the West, the “Knights of the Golden Circle,” the ringleaders of the New York riots of July, 1863, the rebel pirates on the lakes and on the Atlantic seaboard, the St. Albans and other land robbers, the copperhead managers of the Chicago Convention ‘and the managers of various copperhead journals have doubtless had their payments from Thompson’s “detached service” fund, as wollas Sanders, Tucker and Company, and tho New York phosphorus incendiaries, Dr. Blackburn and his confederate yellow fever distributors, and Booth and his horrible gang of hired mar- derers, The developments mado lead irresistibly to this conclusion. We remember, too, that a short time ago there wasa rabid fire-cating rebel paper down South, known as the Rich- mond Enquirer, and that in view of the Pro- phet’s Paradise of a Southern confederacy, that paper advocated any expedient, even to the short cut of assassination. That paper has collapsed with Joff. Davis; but its most venomous rebel fire-eating editor, we find, is as coolly transferred to the editorial work of New York rebel journal, as if since its first number he had been the real manager of the concern. From these facts we cannot avoid the inference that this defunct Richmond rebel paper, and this New York rebel paper, have both been conducted by the same company and supported from the same “detached ser- vice” fund. Now, having settled with the rebellion, the time has come for a settlement with its North- ern copperhead affiliations, including all the “peace at any price” leaders and managers of the New York democracy. With all the thou- sands of New York democrats, who, as good and faithful soldiers have served the Union, their copperhead leaders at home have brought defeat and disgrace upon the party, as a party stained with disloyalty. The honest Union maasos of the party should now proceed to the work of feorganization in which all these pernicious and degrading copper- head elements may bo weeded out. This work is aocesacr to Wt the domooratiy party called for; and we hope and believe that the honest, patriotic masses of the democracy, in their own vindication, will prepare for this work in their preparations for the next demo- cratic State conventior The Great Regatta Te-Day and the Greater Regattas to Come. At halfpast ten o’clock this morning the yachts belonging to the New York Yacht Club start upon their annual regatta. In another column we publish all the documents relating to the affair. The course to-day will be from Owl’s Head around the lightship, thus making it an ocean race. The old course, from Hobo- ken to the Southwest Spit, will hereafter be de- serted. The yachts will no longer skim over the placid waters of the river and the bay like toyboats in a washbasin. The yachismen now insist upon salt water, a sea breeze and the chances of sea sickness. The mill pond school of yachting is getting out of date. When the club was founded the largest yachts wero about forty tons burden. Now they are two hundred and forty tons. The ambition of their owners has increased with the size of the vessels, Hard as it is to part with the fair faces and bright eyes of the ladies they leave behind them, still they are going to do it to-day; for no feminines are invited to witness the race from the club steamer as of yore, on account of the rough water outside. The grand review of the yachts off the Horse Shoe next week will satisfy the ladies, however, and so everybody will be pleased. We anticipate an exciting re- gatta and a splendid display of seamanship. In England, where there are a dozen yacht clubs and nearly a thousand vessels in commis- sion, the amateur sailors have been disposed to smile at the efforts of our yachtsmen. They acknowledge that when an American appears she is ahead and they are nowhere ; but the taunt of fresh water sailors and centre-board yachts is always upon an Englishman’s lips when yachting in America is discussed. If that taunt was ever justified by the facts, it is obso- lete now. Our yachtsmen have explored the whole coast from Maine to Florida. A trip to Havana is no uncommon occurrence. To go outside is not regarded as a daring feat, as it used to be a few years ago. The yaehts no longer hug the shore and creep up creeks or into some mudhole harbor at the first sign of a capfull of wind. Little sloops have been superseded by large schooners, per- fectly seaworthy and as staunch as they are swift. These improvements in both yachts and yachtsmen have been effected in spite of our long civil war, and one may easily imagine that the improvements will be even more marked and rapid now that the war is over and our young men have an opportunity to devote more time, money and attention to this most healthful and delightful recreation. Within five years we hope to see a fleet of yachts, under command of the Commodore, cross the Atlantic, refit at some seaport and enter at the best English regattas. There is no doubt that the triumph of the America can be repeated upon a grander scale, and that the report of such a race will be, “The Americans are ahead, the English nowhere.” Greater regattas than that of to-day aro, therefore, in perspective, although to-day’s race is greatly in advance of ita pre- decessors. In the official order published in another column the entertainment provided for the ladies by the gallant yachtsmen next week is spoken of as the first annual review. From this we infer that there is to be both a regatia and a review every year hereafter. Some such stimulus as this is needed to keep up the popu- lar interest in yachting, which is naturally a somewhat expensive and exclusive amusement. Just as our crack militia regiments, like the Seventh, indulge in an annual parade and re- view, so our crack Yacht Club will have its yearly rendezvous at the Horse Shoe for inspec- tion and exhibition. As soon as this idea comes to be generally understood the bay will be as crowded with spectators as Broadway during a Seventh regiment parade. The trot- ting track presents no attractions at all com- parable with the yacht race, and bas many dis- advantages of association and companionship which a yacht race has not. To see the white- winged vessels flying over the waves like gulls; to watch the quick manceuvres of the various yachts and the eager activity of their crews; to feel the excitement of the race tingling in every vein; to hear the shouts which en- courage the competitors and the cheers which greet the victors—all this is interesting beyond description, to say nothing of the “bright sun- shine, the salt fresh air, the rival beauties of seaand shore and sky, and the intermittent popping of champagne corks and rattling of plates in the saloon below. But to all these pleasures the yachtsmen propose to add, at the review next week, the unusual feature of a yacht excursion ; for the invited guests are to be distributed among the different vessels for a sail and re-embarked upon the club steamer, the America, for a collation. Many e fashiona- ble lady will, doubtless, postpone her trip to Saratoga until she has assisted at this grand review, and in all coming seasons it will be an event of general interest, before the occurrence of which no one will care to leave town. Ina few years all our seaboard cities, North and South, will have their yacht clubs, and the day of the review will be a nautical, national foatival. Passrorts.—An erroneous impression prevails in re- gard to the passport system. The order which appeared from the State Department lately abolishing passports only referred to persons coming to this country from abroad. Persons visiting forcign countries require pass- Ports from our government, as formerly. The necessity of this is demanded by our international arrangements with foreign governments. Fortress Morron, tune 6, 1865. Yesterday afternoon nearly the whole fleet of trans- ports containing the First division of the Twenty-fifth army cor, commanded by Brigadier General Draper, sailed from here for Mobile Bay, each steamer having in- structions to anchor in the vicinity of Forts Morgan and Gaines, for the purpose of coaling and watering. There are now but two steamers, vis Neptune and De- trot, londed with horses, &6., in the berbor, and L- 4 will fail this evening. Fatr weather still oontinaes, Promises a successful fod plonsant gay gouth- Boot of steamers, der Jeff. Davis Not to be Tried Till September. Formal Demand for the Surrender of the Rebel Ram Stonewall. Enforcement of Our Demands on England and the Monroe Doctrine in Mexico. Application for Aid in Laying the Atlantic Telegraph Cable Befased. Belligerent Rights Still Accorded by Zingland to the Rebels. Tho President and Secretary Stanton in Happy Accord. GEN, SLOCUM’S ADDRESS TO HIS ARMY, Bary Ree ke. Wasainoton, June 7, 1865. DEMAND FOR ® 2 SURRENDBE OF THE REBEL RAM STONEWALL. Aformal demand has been made upon the Spanish government for tho surrender of the rebel ram Stone- wall. Of course no answer has yet been received, as the matter goes to Madrid for decision. OUR DEMAND UPON ENGLAND FOR DAMAGES. Notwithstanding the intimations of the British press it is not the intention of our government to abandop, or in any wiso abate, the demand upon England for dam- ages to our commerce by the anglo-rebel pirates. The disbanding of a portion of the army is ne evidence of a cowardly policy. Enough will be retained to enforce any demands upon forcign governments, and, if neces- sary, the veterans mustered out can casily be summoned back to the field. ENFORCEMENT OF THE MONROE DOCTRINE. It ts understood that preliminary measures havo alroady been taken in reference to the enforcemont of the Monroe doctrine, and a notification served upon Napoleon that, sineo we have settled our own family affairs, we will not submit to European interference with those of our sick neighbor Mexico, and a very plain inti- mation given that Napoleon must not only not send more troops into Mexico, but must withdraw the French and Austrian troops now there, and leave the people of Mexico to decide for themselves whether they will have an em- pire or a republic, Otherwise it will be our duty to see that the republicans have fair play. THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH CABLE AND BELLIGK- RENT RIGHTS. An application has been made by Cyrus W. Field to the Secretary of the Navy forthe detail of the United States steamship Niagara to assist in the laying of the Atlantic cable. As no official notification of the rescind- ing of the order that vessels-of-war of the United States shall not be permitted to remain more than twenty-four hours in any British port, the request cannot be acceded to. The published information of the repeal of the or- excluding belligerent vessels from more than twenty-four hours’ stay in British ports concedes belligerent rights to the robels yet, and admits the Shenandoah to equal priviloges with United States vessels. This is doubtless intended to enablo the Shenandoah, the only rebel pirate now afloat, to get back to England from the East Indies, whero she was at tho last advices. THE TRIAL OF JEFF. DAVIS. It fs not now probable that the trial of Joff. Davis will take place until Soptembor. Tho Suprome Court of the District of Columbia, in which the indictment was found, will adjourn to-morrow, and there is at present no pros- pect of a special term of the court during the summer. PRESIDENT JOHNSON AND SHORETARY STANTON. Some persons may be interested in learning that the Chronicle of to-day, in order to sot at rout what it calls a malignant falsehood, says, on the authority of Mr. Stan- ton himself, that he has not rosignod; that it is not known that he has determined to leave the Cabinet very soon; and that he has had no dispute, no difference, no collision with President Johnson. His relations with the President are of the most cordial and friendly character, and tho Presidont’s relations with Mr. Stanton are on- tirely agreeable and confidential. He has nover had a difference, much leasa collision, with his Secretary of War, nor has he given such assurance to any one, Major General, or otherwise, as has been attributed to him; and the Chronicle also says:—‘This latter statement is made by authority of President Johnson." THE DELEGATION FROM ALABAMA. A portion of the Alabama delegation were at the White House again to-day. Messrs. Davis, Bradiey and Bibb are asserted by loyal Alabamians to bo rebels of the moat malignant type, who aro, now that the rebellion is sup- pressed, endeavoring to get the control of the reconstruc- tion movement. Messrs. Moore, Parsons and Tibbs have been regarded as favorable ta the Union, but open to sus- picion for their association with the secession element in this delegation. When they came here their intention was to recommend Colonol Soybrald, a rank rebel, for provisional governor; but this idea was abandoned after they reached here, and they now recommend Mr. Parsons. He is opposed by the loyal men of Alabama, who have recommended William H. Smith, a Union man, who was forced to abandon tho State in 1862 on account of his Unton sentimonts. He has been an active promoter of tho Union cause, and was instrumental in raising the First Alabama cavalry regiment, which has rendered good service during the war. Should the delegation now hore succeed in obtaining control of the State, the fight- ing loyalists say that it will not be safe for them to re- turn to Alabama. NEW MILITARY DIVISIONS. The following military divisions have just been ar- ranged :— First—The Military Division of the Atlantic. = comprises the Department of the East, the of Pennaylvania, the Middle Department, Virgi North Carolina and South Carolina; to be — iby Genoral Meade, headquarters at Philadelphia. ‘second—Tha Military Division of tho Mississippi.

REVIEW OF THE SIXTH CORPS. ‘The arrangements for the reviow of the Sixth corps and the reserve artillery to-morrow aro very meagre. In front of the President's mansion there bas been erected a amall Stand, capable of accommodating about three hundred Persons. The tickets of admission within the lines around the reviewing stand have been given to General Meade for distribution, who, in retaliation for the exposi- tion of his weakness in the Wilderness, has ignored the press on this occasion. The Vermont State Agency had erected a large stand, opposite the reviewing stand, te afford the citizens of Vermont an opportunity to give a formal greeting to tho Vermont regiments in the corps.

While people who have loisurd and money to spend the ‘season of the solstice at fashionable watering places an@, distance from the city, nature has provided plenty of, home watering places for those who cannot afford to be. fashionable in the selection of their summer retreats, of who have not time to spare from business occupations for a lengthy sojourn in the country. we nave, for in- stance, within a few hours’ distance such spote as Gleg Cove, Coney Island, Bath, Staten Island, Flushing (te garden of Long Island), Jones’ Wood, the Palisades, Fort Hamilton and many others, each of them available for such enjoyments as are most sought after in sum- mer—cool breezes, shade, boating, fishing and bathing. ‘Still nearer than any of these are the beauties of Harlem: river, New Rochelle, City Island and the islands in the East river. Theso are now within reach of all by the frequent trips of the elegant steamor, Sylvan Grove, which leaves several times a day from Pock slip for that delightful region. With such places of summer recrea- tion so convenient the masses need hardly envy the chosen few who can afford to dissipate small fortunes ia the fashionable resorts. It is exceodingly doubtful whether there is not ten times more enjoyment to be bad after all in our home watering places. The beauty of the scenery in the vicinity of the motre- polis, both on the Hudson and East rivers, is unsurpassed by the suburbs of any city in the world. Cortainly the country seats, within a few bours travel, probably ox- coed in beauty and convenience anything of the kind within the samo distance from any capital. One of theese fine estates, within an hour's travel of the city, situated in Weatchester county, we observe, is to be sold at auction ou Saturday, and a finer site for a hotel and several coua- try residences cannot be found in the neighborhood of New York. It is the property of Mr. B. K. Collins, known af Larchmont, with its splendid mansion, avenues of grand ld troos and adjacent facilities for bathing, ashing, boating and other summer recreations without end. & portion of this property, it occurs to us, ie, well adapted for a first class hotel, while the remainder might be most acceptable for private residences. With all the locations referred to, #0 available for enjoyment in the hot season, and easily reached by railroad and steamboat, within an hour of two, the million cannot complain of the want of local haunts of pleasure almost at their doors, nor need they envy others the gifts of fortune which put more distant and expensive resorts at their command.
