Stephens, Governors Pickens, Letcher and others, on public matters, and the utmost cor- diality and frankness were reciprocated on all sides, Some plan will doubtiess be ei te for future action, but it ts somewhat shrouded in mystery at present, The plan will doubtless be developed in a day or two.

Resignation of the Superintendent of the Printing BureaumAppointment of His Suce cessor, It is said to-night that the long contest about a change in the head of the Printing Bureau has been decided by the resignation of the famous Spencer M. Clarke, Some weeks ago, it will be remembered, it Was stated in several papers that Clarke had been granted a leave of absence and Mr. George McCartee had been appointed locum lenens during the former's absence. It was supposed at the time that this was only @ ruse to cover the Inglorious retreat of Mr. Clarke, and it turns out that the suppo- sition was pretty nearly correct. Clarke had had a Teguiar muss with McCulloch, it seems, and in the excitement of his mind tendered his resignation as Superintendent, to take effect as soon as his accounts should be examined and declared satisfactory. Secretary McCulloch took three days to consider, and at the expiration of that time notified Mr. Clarke that his resignation would be aceepted, to take effect after a full examination of accounts. This examination was promptly instituted, and at its conclusion Mr. McCartee was offered the posi- tion of Superintendent of the Printing Bureau. After two days’ deliberation Mr. McCartee concluded to accept, was installed in office and Mr. Clarke re- tired under a supposed leave of absence, but really forever from the office. Mr. McCartee has since con- ducted the Bureau in a very satisfactory manner, and it is belleved will prove equal to its arduous duties. He is quite a young man, but possesses rare busi- ness tact anc all the qualifications fitting him for the position of head of the Printing Bureau. For some time he had filled the office of Superintendent of the Treasury Building with the greatest credit and success, Rumored Defalcation by a Southern Collector. There is a rumor that a large defalcation, amount- ing to many thousands, has been discovered in the accounts of a Collector of a Southern port who has recently been superseded. The discovery was made by the officer who succeeded him. The amount is fixed at $200,000, but this is evidently much exag- gerated. Order by the President Constituting the Port of Sitka. The following Executive order day:— Under and tn pursuance of the authority vested in the President of the United States by the provisions of the second section of the act of Congress approved on the 27th day of July, 1868, entitled “An act to ex- tend the laws of the United States relating to eus- toms, commerce and navigation over the territory ceded to the United States by Russia, to establish a collection district therein, and for other purposes,”? the pc of Sitka, in said territory, is hereby consti- tuted and established as a port of entry for the col. lection district of Alaska, provided for by said a: and under and in pursuance of the authority vested in him by the fourth section of said act the importa. tion and use of firearms, ammunition and distiiled spirits into and within the said territory, or any por- ton thereof, except as herematter provided, is tlrely prohibited under the pains and penalties spe was issued to- fied in said last namet section: provided, however, that under h regulations — as the Secretary of the T ury may preseribe in accordance with law such articles may in limited quantities be shipped coastwise from the United States ports on the Pacific coast to satd port of Sitka, and to that port only, in said territory, on the ship- per’s giving to the Collector of Customs at the port of shipment bonds in which it shall be conditional that such articles will, on their arrival at Sit delivered to the Collector of Customs, or the pi there acting as such, to remain in his possession and under his control until sold or disposed of to such . persons as the military or chief authority in said ter- ritory. ly specially designate in permits for that purpose, signed by himself or @ subordinate duly authorized by him, Done at the city of Washington this 22d day of August, inthe year of our Lord one thousand eight hu eight, and of t pendens the ninety-ti Appointment of Internal Revenue Officers.

Legislative Proceedings—Bill Creating a Bourd of Finance—The New Militin Bill. NASHVILLE, August 26, 1868, Tn the House of Representatives to-day Mr. bosson, from the special committee on the finances, re- ported a bill creating a Board of Finance, with fall power to pay the principal and interest on the pubic debt now due and hereafter to mature by negotiat- ing loans on the funding debt falling due in 1463. ¢ Committee on Military Affairs reported a bill and recommended its passage. The bill authorizes the Governor to organize and equip into active service a volunteer force of one or more regiments from each Congressional district, to be composed of loyal men and to be governed by the revised rules and regulations of the United States Army, the ex- ense of the same to be paid out of the state reasury In sums not exceeding $50,000 at any one time.

The Bostonians again went to the bat and scored 60 runs before time was called. The flelding of both clubs was very fine, but the bowling of the Bostonians seemed to beat the New Yorkers, The match will be resiymed to-morrow.

John B. Jones was appointed for | | building at Niagara HONDURAS. An Insurrection in Olancho—President Medi- na’s TourGeneral Quiet Prevailing. TRUXILLO, July 27, 1568, The peace and tranquillity that the republic has been enjoying for more than two years was some- what unpleasantly disturbed on the 9th of this month by an insurrectionary movement in the department of Olancho. Fortunately it proved a mere ripple—a fretting of the surface—that soon ceased. To-day I fancy I can safely pronounce the waters once more calm and tranquil. On the night of the day just indi- cated oue Chinchonero, an,impatient, reckless char- acter, with @ past career seml-political and semi- banditti, attacked the town of Juticalpa, and after @ short contest with the few men on duty there, made himself master of the place. His force was small, altogether not amounting to one hundred men, and was composed chiefly of lawless men from the Department of Tegucigalpa. Lieutenant Colonel Nazario Garay, the Government's Prefecto, is reported to have killea by the band, as aiso three other persons, one & civilian, On July 18 Juticalpa was reoccupied by the national authorities, the Governor of the Depart- ment, General Fernandez, entering the place at the head of six hundred men, mostly of the volunteer militia, Chinchonero and his followers very pru- dently left before these troops arrived. An active pursuit has been undertaken, and strong hopes are enter(ained that a portion, at least, of these pertur- bators of the republic's peace will be overtaken and duly punished, ‘They are said to have seattered in many directions, the band having divided into a dozen or more groups, each going its own way. This renders pursuit much more dificult, but it is tobe hoped not impossible of success, The movement of Chinchonero was an isolated one, since nowhere has it received a response. The taking of Juticalpa is ewerywhere severely denounced as an act of vandalism entirely below the dignity of a po- litical coup de main. “Any amount of volunteers could at once have been obtained for its suppression. In the border town of Yoro, of this department (Yoro also by name), ninety men immediately volunteered to aia the authorities, but their services were de- clined, as they were not needed. Undisturbed by this bubbling the worthy President of Honduras, Captain General Medina, is still on his travels of inspection throughout the republic, at all stopping places the Esceiniens of telling marks of love and esteem. However, he is soon to return to the capital, where his presence has become necessary. | Senor ‘Trinidad Ferrari, Minister of the Interior, has re- signed his position and Seior Jose Maria Aguirre is acting in his place ad interim, Senor Abel Boquin has also retired from the Finance Ministry, and the under sec ry, Seflor Elias Cacho remains in charge of the port folio until the President’s return to the capital, From the departments of Comayagua, Holuteca and Gracias the news is cheering indeed.

It is painful to revlect that this great country, with energy and enterprise suficient to supply all the fossilized nations of Europe, should have receded almost a century from its once proud position of foremost among the maritime Powers of the globe, It is needless to dwell upon the unhappy combina- tion of circumstances that has driven the American flag from the ocean and crippled American commerce in the very hour of its growing expansion, Since he close of the war no other subject has rovoked so much general expression of pa- trlotic lament, And, indeed, it would be strange if it were otherwise—it would be strange ifthe American people viewed without a pang of keen regret the transfer of its commerce and its car- tying trade to the hands of its many jealous rivals. Yet so itis, The export products of the country are taken away from us almost wholly in foreign bot- toms and the imports we receive are brought to us under another and an alien fag. The pirates of the war, united with radical legislation, that practically made shipbuilding a penalty, together with the un- fortunate series of strikes that so effectually stopped the construction of vessels in the harbor of New York and drove the trade down Erst to the Yankee shipyards, have taken from us the glorious reputation we had achieved upon the ocean prior to the war, Still we manage to get along trading with the nations of the earth. Our exports exhibit a steady increase, and the ex- panding wants of the country are denoted in the enlarged record of our imports. The coasting trade, it is at least some gratification to know, is solely in American hands. By law, however, it is provided vhat only American ships can engage in the coasting tramc. THE SOUTHERN COASTING TRADE. At this period of the year the trade with Southern ports is nominally dull, but in a month or so from now shippers anticipate it will be extremely active. The two millions and a half bales of cotton, which it is expected the crop of the South will reach this year, will give employment to more vessels than can be conveniently secured. At the present moment there are three consoli- dated lines of steamers to Savannah, under the con- trol of Dick, Ould, Murray & Co., from the port of New York, comprising six regularly ruuning vessels, with a reserve of six others, which are put on as extra when the emergency demands. They connect with the principal railroads of Georgia. To Charies- ton there are two lines of steamers, to Newbern one, to Wilmington one, and to New Orleans three, ‘There are over one hnndred and fifty sailing vessels, ranging from two hundred to four hundred ton plying between this and all the recognized ports along the Southern coast as far as the Rio Grand am and sailing tonnage this trade embraces one hundred thousand (ons, consist of general merchan- ports of cotton, rice and naval stores, and latterly of wheat, The passenger traffie has grown to be very large, and may be accounted for on the score of cheap rates of travel being an important consideration to tye Southern people in their present impoverishment, The steamers are generally first class els, ranging from 590 to 1,500 tons, ‘The va rious lines enumerated are permanently estab- lished and sail their vessels at regularly stated periods. Before the war the coasting trade was done almost Lag ig by salling ves- sels; but it would seem it is just as econo- mic as it is expeditions to invoke the aid of steam, besides bringing these outlying and distant Southern ports in ser relationship with the stirring: tres of the Nort There has been a slow but ease in number of vessels engaged in rm trade, and the general anticipation among shippers and traders is that when the South is fully and finully restored to the Union, when her farmers and planters can gi vir undivided atten- tion to her agricultural staples without being dis- tracted by the bugbear of negro governments; when, in short, the people in that present unhappy tion can work and develop the resources of the soil with as free and unharassed thoughts as the people of the Norih and West, the ex- ports of the great staple, cotton, and of the vastly inereasing product of wheat will be some- thing enormous and will tax the shipping capacity of this and other ports, Fretghts by steamer to Sa- vannah have been ruling very low through the sum- mer, ranging from 5c. to 10c. a foot, the regular rate being Lhe. “For weight goods the rate has been Goe. per 100 Ibs, By sailing vessels the frelghts are merely nominal and might range from half a cen: to we. ‘To Newbern, N.C., the rates are 1c. a foot, T5e. per 100 Ibs. ‘To New Orleans trom 20¢. to per tfoot. To Galveston, Texas, the principal bi hess with which is done by sailing vessels, aud {s now very brisk, the rates are 12'4¢. per foot, 6c. ‘per 100 bs. THE EASTERN COASTING TRADE is unusually dull, it 1s of # very extensive and mis- collaneous character, and emplops, ata rough esti- mate, little fewer than one thousand schooners, Fish, coal and flour are the three great staples, pucester, Harwich and all those poluts along vd a fleet of Vesscis come in the seasou down tothe port of New York laden with fish, After dis- charging they return with cargoes of Nour and grain ipalty, but with merchandise of ail kinds in- d. The fishing fleet has a capacity of over four thousand tons. ‘To Boston, Newoury port, Ports- mouth, Portland and alt the principal ports along the eastern coast steamers transi bof the carrying trade, Yet to these pia articles coming under the deno chandise which steamers cannot as, for instance, blocks of mart heavy rm nery of various kind: n adapted to the hold of a sailing vessel than to the deck of & steamer, A hundred diferent cargoes, however, not set down in the bills are eternatly poss- ing and repassing between Eastern ports and the harbor of New York in smart, dapper little Yankee schooners with an average capacity of 250 tons, There is but one regularly established line of packets between here and Koston—that of & W. Lewis & Co,—though formerly there were three. Coal enters very largely into the items of export from here to Eastern potuts, and, in fact, is almost as much of @ spectalty as the imported article of fish. The coal trade employs quite a feet, which rendevons at Ronaout, Hoboken and Blizavethport, and darkens the waters of the sound every week in tie year save when the ice of winter interposes itself obstructively. Freights on merchandise average $2 per ton, flour 20c. per bar- rel and measured goods 4c, per foot. 1 THE WEAT INDIA TRADE, Beginning with “the Queen of the Antities"~ Cuba—trade I4 found to be extremely quict.

An average of five vessels a month leave New York for San Francisco with cargoes of Cumberland coal, railro iron, plaster, ment, staves, agricultural implements, and a geveral as- sortment of hardware. They bring back cargoes of wheat, flour, hides, wool, crap iron, commonly called junk, and copper ore. Trade has been dull for the past few months. In September it general! commences, and 18 fairly underway by October. 1 is anticipated that this year will be one of unusual briskness in the California shipping business. Freighta range from 20 to 40 cents per foo’: weight goods, to 1 cent per pound; nails, 87 to 87% cents per keg; Cumberland coal, $20; anthracite, $17, Since the reduction of the tax whiskey has begun to form an item of export. There is a project on foot to start a line of vessels between here and Portland, in Oregon, though some people consider the enter- prise is not calculated to pay. THE CHINA AND JAPAN TRADE. With these two enigmatical sections of the Old World American trade has been @ comparatively long time established, The ships that sail from here to the Flowery Kingdom, generally first class clippers, carry all kinds of merchand'se, hardware, glassware, notions, coal. &c. They bring back both from China andJapan tea almost en- tirely, except from (he ports of Hong Kongand Wham- pao, where the cargoes are assorted and matting, silk, flre-crackers and a thousand little knick knacks on which Oriental ingenuity delights to expend it- self make up no tnconsiderable portion of the con- signment, For seven months of the present year the arrivais from China and Japan comprised sixty-four vessels of all sizes, ranging from 400 to 800 tons registered. No casualties are reported, though cyclones and other such unpleasant manifestations of the ele- ments were frequent in the Indian seas, Freights from China were from £3 108. a £4 per ton; from Yokahama, Japan, to £3 103, per ton of 40 feet.

To Antwerp, Bremen, Dantzig, Kénigs- berg, Barcelona and Constantinople large quantities of petroleum have been recently despatched, alto- gether by sailing vessels.
