Internal Revenue Receipts Yesterday Nearly Three and a Half Million Dollars. «Arrest of the President of the M hants’ National Bank. ae. &. ‘Wasumeortos, June 2, 1866. THE TRIAL OF JEFF DAVIS. ‘The counsel for Jef Davis are all enroute for Rich. mond, and have made ample preparation for every con- Ungoucy likely to arise. If for any reason the govern- ‘Ment declines to proceed immediately with the trial they ‘will ask for bis release on parole or upon bail in any sum ‘that may be considered necessary. Northern men of all Political opinions aro willing to become his sureties to ‘ny amount rather than have him longer im- Prisoned without a trial James T. Brady, of Now York; William B, Reed, of Philadelphia, and Wil- am George Brown, of Baltimore, accompanied by ‘Thomas H. Edsall, Edwin A. Van Sickle and Mr. Gross, ‘Qs junior assistant counsel, have gone te Richmond to attend the opening of the court on Monday. Charles ‘O’Conor and George Shea, of New York, and ex-Governor Thomas @. Pratt, of Baltimore, remain in Washington until it is ascertained whether or not the trial will be announced this term, and will hold themselves in readi- mess to proceed to Richmond whenever notified. INTERNAL REVENUE RECEIPTS. ‘The receipts for internal revenue to-day wore $3,421,- 982. Telal receipts for the week, $7,176,716. Total for May, $21,724,630. The receipts at the office of internal revenue from cor- Porations for the month of May were as follows:—Banks, $714,881; insurance companies, $57,475; railroad com- panies, $422,764; turnpike companies, $2,149; canal companies, $1,280. Total, $1,198,552. THE TAX ON BROKERS AND BANKERS. An editorial in the Heraxp of yesterday is calculated to mislead the public in reijation to the intentions of the ‘Treasury Department. Yne general collection of tax upon salos‘of bankers doing business as brokers was deferred on Tuesday only until after the hearing in the case of Clark, Dodge & Co., then set down for Friday, but since postponed until Monday next. The government has no intention of permanently suspending such collections or of waiving its rights under the law. ARREST OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE MERCHANTS’ NATIONAL BANK. Leonard Huyck, late President of the Merchants’ Na- tional Bank, was arrested to-day on a warrant charging him wih all the offences enumerated in the fifty-tifth Section of the National Currency act. The affidavit on ‘which the warrant 1s based was made by the Comp- trol\er of the Currency, Mr. Clarke, who charges Huyck, ‘on information obtained from James C, Kennedy, United States Bank Receiver, and John Buil, United States Bank Examiner, with having taken and misapplied two Bundred thousand dollars of the funds by paying them om ‘to the hands of L, P. Bayne & Company, of Baltimore, unlawfully and without autho- rity. | This specific charge of the mirap- ‘lication of that amount is made in order to tx the amount of bail. Another of the specific ebarges against Huyck is, that on or about the Sth of January he, without authority, endorsed as good a check or thirty-one thousand dollars on the Merchants’ National Bank, on which the person who drew it received that amount of money, Huyck knowing at the time that the person had no funds on deposit nor any claim upon it. Huyck appeared before the Justice with counsel, but he waived an examination The Justice required two bun- -@red thousand dollars bail, and Huyck to-night, in cus- ‘tody of an officer, is seeking for persons to become his sureties, THE PRESOMEN IN TAR SOUTH. ‘The Assistant Commissioner of the Freedmen’s Bu- eau in the District of Missouri and Arkansas reports the number of rations estimated as necessary to be issued to ‘the destitute during June is as follows:—Whites, -@ighty-nine thousand; freedmen, cleven thousand. Tho agent of the State of Alabama for the distribution of supplies to the destitute says:—‘ Gentlemen of pro- ‘minence send up the most earnest and touching appeals for an increased supply of food, and ropresent the wretched and suffering condition of their people. This destitution, which has so rapidly increased since January, ‘must continue to increase rather than diminish until something can be realized from the present growing Amusements, THY FRENCH THEATRE. The comedy, or rather the drama, of L'Aieve (The ‘Grandam) was produced at the now French theatre last ‘Right toa pumerous aud appreciative audience, and the adjectives are worthy of note when we consider that Saturday nights do not cenerally witness full houses at This season of the year, when the temptation to get a breath of pure country air is #0 strong, and that pisces five acts in length, with long French entre acts—ceal French intermissions—are not calculated, unless very good in thepscives and very weil acted, to attract the attention of audiences composed in a great part of Americans JL Aieu'e however, is con. structed upon so strong « plot, and the situations are go reolly and truthfully dramatic that the interest is kept up from the first scene to the last almost without fiag- ging Tho cast last night was excellent, with the excep- Sion of tne réle of Gaston de Montmarcy, which Mr. Zimmer did his best to render as the su- thors of the play intended it should be rendered, but he evidently was out of his line of business. Madame Hergeon's impersonation of the dowager grand. mother, and the part of the dutchess, played by Mme. ‘Larmet, were each finished pieces of acting. Mmo. Solan. ges as Blanche, a character evidently modelled upon Dumas’ Valentine in the Count of Monte Cristo, was also well rendered, Of the actors, Mons. Larmet as the Duke, Edmond as the commandenr, and Chol in the part of the old, superstitions peasant, Binsaan, acquitted Abemeclvos very creditably. The plot of L' Aieuls ia vory sinple ant yet intensely strong. The main points are en ambit\ous grandmother, determined at al! bazards to secure © and wealth for her daughter's child by compassing @ much desired marriage, in which she ts first (nwarted by the husband picked out failing in love with « daughter of the duke's second wife, the duke being the old schemer's son.

Another point needs comment—viz: the scenery, which ‘and faded, contrasting very unfavorably with the gay and elegant decorations of the house, just tompleted. It is to be hoped that the managers will iake the bint and set their scenic artiste to work without delay. SRY ANTS’ MINSTRELS —LAST NIGHT OF THF SRASON. The performance last evening at this popular minstrel bail was for the benefit of Mr. Neil Bryant. There wae a crowded audience, The Bryauts have the peculiar faculty of arranging their programme to euit the public taste, and they consequently always receive the mont Viberal patronage. Last evening’# programme was some- what similar to that presented for the past few months, Dut the exesilence of the performance was certain to attract a crowd. Mr, Dan Bryant gave his asual spirited rendition of comical character, being warmly applauded during the evening. Ho was ably seconded by the other members of the troupe. This was the last night of the Prosent season. MR. AND MRS. BARNEY WILLIAMS Mr, and Mra.

Norss on ras History a Stavery i Mas- sacuuserrs. By Geo. H. Moore, Librarian of the New York al dominant fattion than she evidence contained in it, Im the selfish and unscrupuls’# course they aro now pur- suing they are only repeating thelr antecedents, It wag in Now England that the worst features of slavery originated, first in the horrible oppression of the Indians by the canting, psalm-singing colonists, and secondly in the importation of African slaves under conditions fear- fully destructive of life. In our own day we find their descendants playing the same game over again and - displacing one form of slavery which ceased to benefit them for another from which they derived s direct profit. In the disclosures unveiled with the operations of the Freedmen’s Bureau we have the evidence of the estab- mistaken for an advocate of slavery, and his earnestness ‘on this point renders his testimony all the more valua- ble. He next proceeds to show that slavery was a recog- nized institution in New England and that laws were made to regulate the relations between master and slave; also that Mr. Sumnner’s assertion in his speech of March 28, 1864, “that in all her annals no person was born & slave on the soil of Massachusetts,” is untrue, He cites a case (p. 23) in which @ negro, Cato, born in Massachu- setts, was held as a slave because born of slave parenis. ‘That the Indians were sold and bartered for negroes he establishes by cqually irrofutable evidence and quotes John Eliot’s vain remonstrances in the causo of mercy, In the fourth chapter he adduces a largo body of testi- mony to show that the discipline and regulations to which the slaves were subjected in New England wore as stringent as any ever enforced at the South. We have the same incongruity of permitting lawful marriages among them and then selling husband, wife and child to different purchasera. Mr. Moore also establishes the fact that the practice of raising slaves for market was practised, and that they were held as personal estate and rated with oxen, swine, &c., as of certain value, It was not until the year 1783 that slaves were recognized as free in New England. Mr, Moore contends that Massa- chusets never by her own separate legislation abolished slavery, and that in New England generally, after the negroes were declared free, they were by no means treated kindly by the whites, but lived in a very miser- able condition. Badly off as they were, there was no thought of the establishment of a Freedmen’s Bureau “for their relief.” Reason why—there was no fleld for plunder in connection with It Tainty Years or Axmy Lirs on Tug Boxrpen. By Colonel RK. B. Marcy, U. S. A. Harper Brothers. We cordially recommend this volume of military re- miniscences. It is written In an unpretending style and is free from the dulness witch characterizes many works of travel. Narratives of Indian and border life are so abundant that the subject might almost be considered worn out, yet Colonel Marcy has contrived to give a life- like, original and most interesting picture of the wild scenes to which duty called him. The book opens with a well written sketch of the general manners and cus- toms of the Indian tribes and of their similarity to the nomads of the old world. The author next devotes » chapter to the Comanche race, and for the first time we see this people represented in a favorable light. The word Comanche has hitherto been a synonym for un- tamed barbarity. It is pleasant to Ond that there isa reverse to the picture, and that gonerosity and magnani- mity are qualities not utterly unknown among this wild people. After many agreeable aketches of the habits and peculiarities of different tribes, the author gives an account of an exploring expedition to the sources of the Red river. It m to be regretted that a map of his route does not accompany this chapter. It is one of the ‘best in the book and reminds the reader of Atkinson's “Sibera’’ and ‘Down the Amoor.’’ There is both vivid word painting, which arrests the attention, and really valuable information. This region ts go little known that details which embrace not only the geographical and geo- logical features of the country, but also give a slight sketch of its Fauna and Flora, are invaluable and fille void long noticed by those who are interested in such in- vestigations. We are not aware of the existence of any other reliable works which supply the want. The ac- count of the Mosquit tree, with its peculiar gum, will please and interest those given to botanical investiga- ons. If it be possible, as Colonel Marcy thinks, for it to replace the gum arabic of commerce, the information is of importance as opening a new source of woalth to ‘Toxas and the adjacent bordera. Leaving tho Red river we find Colonel Marcy noxt engaged in crossing the Rocky Mountains in winter. This terrible jour. performed with a troop of forty soldiers and twenty-five mountaineers, besides guides, They were all volunteers. Few can read the narrative of their hariships and sufferings with- ont emotion. If the author dwells on the praises he earned from his superiors he may be pardoned, for the achievement was one to be proud of. It is quite a retief to read the humorous account of Moriano's four suppers after shuddering at the narrow escape of the whole party from death by starvation. After this chapter, which we may call without exaggeration the sensational part of the book, we have many interesting details as to fire- arms, game, routes, guides, &c., which will be hailed with pleasure by sportsmen; and if the reader wants « hearty laugh the final chapter will furnish him food for it, The eccentric manners of the sturdy pioneers of the West are depicted with a great deal of hutnor, and wo hope no one will miss the anecdote which relates the ‘awful consequences resulting from the imbibing of mint Juleps. The bravery and recklessness of the mountain- ers are also done full justice to, and the reader will close the book with regret, We trust that it will not be the last from the same entertaining pen. By Wilkie Collins, Harper ney was Anmapane. A Novel. & Brothers. ‘This tale is decidedly inferior to “The Woman in White.” We must protest against prophetic dreams in the mineteenth century. A vision of this kind is mtro- duced in the earlier part of the taie as occurring to the hero, Allan Armadale, when he visite the ship in which his father has bees murdered in company with the mur derer's son, Midw: The dream t fulfilled, but it does not directly influence the catastrophe; it should have done so, The anthur har evidently desired to uphold the text that “The sing of the fathers are visited upon the children’! and he consequently overwhelms Midwinter with misfortanes, while Armadale revels in prosperity. But as Midwinter’s father had been foully wronged by the man whose life be took, we must pro- test against Mr. Collins’ absolute construction of the text, ‘The characters are badly drawn. Not one will live im the read memory ss does the income parable Fosco, Old Podgift and his son are tolerably sketchod, but Miss Gwilt, the heroine, is an improbability. A woman go utterly depraved and 0 thoroughly ambitious would never commit suicide to free her husband. That such a woman should use a man as the instrument of ber designe and then abeudon bim is nataral enough; but it is utterly abeurd to represent her as loving bim to distraction at the same time We hope the author will bestow, small modicum of braine on bis next hero, Allan Armadale is but a clumsy, good- natured dolt, who fails to excite either interest or sym. pathy. The reader feels that it matters nota jot whether he marries Mims Milroy or Mise Gwilt, The utter unat- tractiveness of the characters i# the grontest fault of the work, The best scene is, decidedly, that between Manuel and Mise Gwilt It le mriking and uot over. drawn.
