General Grant at Harrisburg—An Enthusi- astic Reception. HARBISBURG, Pa., Nov. 7, 1868. General Grant arrived at Harrisburg, Pa., at noon to-day. He was presented to a large assemblage, but merely bowed his acknowledgments of the cheers that greeted his appearance, He left for Washington at balf-past one P. M. General Grant’s Unexpected Arrival at the Capital—A Flank Movement on the Politi-, clans—Disappointment of Office Seekers. Wasuincton, Nov. 7, 1868. The question whether General Grant will be re- ceived by a grand military and civic demonstration of weicome on his arrival in this city has been finally settled by the arrival of the General here at a quarter-past eight o'clock, thus exeeuting one of his famous flank movements on the aspiring politicians of this city, who expected to make con- siderable capital by overwhelming the President elect with a gorgeous reception display. General Grant was accompanied by the members of his family and by Generals Comstock and Smith, Colonel Badeau and Mr. J. Russell Jones. The party took breakfast this morning at Altona and arrived at Harrisburg at noon. Notwithstanding the caution with which all the travelling arrangements were made, the party going all the way through from Galena to this city on special trains, information of the General’s approach reached Harrisburg before the arrival of the train and a large crowd had assembled to greet nim. To repeated and enthusiastic calls the General appeared on the plat- form of the car and bowed his thanks for tne welcome. The train left at half-past one o'clock, arrived in Baltimore at forty-seven minutes past six and at Washington at a quarter past eight o’clock, when the General and his party left the train.’ Here they entered carriages which were in waiting and proceeded immediately to his residence on I street, where the members of his staf! were in waiting to receive him. So well was the passage to Washing- ton managed that scarcely a dozen persons were aware of the Generai’s arrival, and the good result of all these precautions was, that, after an hour spent in exchanging congratulations, the Gen- eral retired to rest, while the whole city slumbered in profound ignorance of his presence. , FLORIDA. A Conflict of Authorities Feared—Governor Reed Refuses to Recognize the Legislature— Adjournment of the Legislature=The Lieu- tenant Governor and Secretary of State Arrested for Conspiracy. TALLAHASSEE, Nov. 7, 1868. About nine o'clock last night citizens to the num- ber of one hundred or more were summoned by the city and county authorities to hold themselves in readiness to aid in quelling any riot, At eleven o’clock there were no indications of trouble, and the posse was discharged. The cause of the call was the conflicting orders of Governor Reed and Lieutenant Governor Gleason, and fears were entertained that the colored people would be called on to support the action of the Legislature. The citizens were uneasy to-day, but t) ey will not interfere except to ald in preserving the peace, when they will render prompt assistance. Rumors were on the street to-day that the plantation negroes have been notified to come in to-night, but the report may be doubted. One company of the Seventh regiment have been posted here, about thirty strong. The Legislature adjourned this morning until Jan- wary, there being no quorum present. When the ath peer peor passed several members held seats and voted whose seats had been declared vacant by the proclamation of the Governor, by reason of mem- bers accepting and occupying other public offices, Governor Reed refuses to rei the action of the Legislature and declares it an illegal body. Lieut. Governor Gleason this morning demanded ession of the executive ofice, and was refused See who has brought suit against leutenant Governor Gleason and Alden, Secretary of State, before the Circuit Judge, for conspiring ji the government, and they are now under arrest. The ven impression seems to be that Governor Reed is in the right. Lieutenant Governor Gleason Prociaims Him- self Governor—Counter Proclamation by Governor.

Wasuimaton, Nov. 7, 1868. The Reported Sale of Fivy-Twenty Bonds OMcially Denied. ‘The statement made in the “money article’ pub- lished in a New York paper of yesterday ¢hat Secre- tary McCulloch had sold about eight millions of five- twenty bonds within the past ten days was officially deniea to-day. The Treasury authorities assert that on the contrary the Secretary has purchased bonds within the time specified, with a view of relieving the great stress in the New York market. Reissue of Loan Certificates. Mr. McCulloch to-day ordered $10,000,000 of the three per cent temporary loan certificates to be reissued, and states that more will be reissued if necessary to relieve the existing financial pressure. The Reissue of Redeemed Notes, Although the Secretary of the Treasury believes he has power to reissue notes redeemed, but not can- celled, itis not determined what he will do, as this will depend upon circumstances, and according to what is believed here of an improved condition of the market it may not become necessary to resort to that measure in order to afford relief. The Removal of the Secretary of the Treas sury. The rumors of ostensible differences between the President and Secretary McCulloch have a real foundation in fact. The Secretary of the ‘Treasury has not at any time supported the President to any great extent other than by “lip service.” <A large Yadical vote has at all times been absolutely neces- sary to carry out the designs of McCulloch’s favorite Treasury ring; therefore, while he has been for the past three years constantly entertaining the Presi- dent with public and private expressions of pro- found esteem, a select few radical members of Con- gress could at any time get their favorites into good places in the Treasury Department, provided always they supportea the “on to specie payment’ contraction policy and other schemes of the ring. Now the members of that close corporation known as the Treasury ring are very anxious to have President Grant keep Secretary McOulloch in his present position during the next four years. I have heretofore shown that a few gentlemen in that most fortunate organization of operators in government contracts, bonds, £c., have already made, during and since the rebellion, over $25,000,000 by manipulating the contents of our national treasury, With their experience in the business it is safe to say they would double the sum if they could get another four years’ lease, The prize is certainly worth a struggle. The radical members and supporters of the Trea- sury ring, in and out of Congress, our smooth- tongued Secretary can count upon for support at any and all times. Now, then, if he can at the eleventh hour get up a brisk quarrel with President Johnson—real or /feigned, either will answer—it is possible he may bridge over the gulf that now exists between him and the honest members of Congress of both parties, and remain in his present position another four years. On failing in that he might acquire political capital enough to get a member of the Treasury ring for a successor—the next best thing he could do for himself and friends, but the worst that could be done for the country. E ‘Weekly Report of the Currency. said The receipts of fractional currency for the week ending to-day amount to $630,200, Shipments for the week to the Assistant Treasurer at New York, $100,000; to the Assistant Treasurer at Boston, $100,000; to the United States Depository at Cincinnati, $15,000; to national banks, $252,995. ‘The following amounts are held in trust for the na- tional banks:— As security for circulating notes, $341,495,600; for public deposit, $38,060,850; national bank currency issued during the week, $83,600; total to date, $810,450,876. Mutilated bills returned, $9,680,670; notes of insolvent banks redeemed, $834,331. Actual circulation at this date, $299,925,875. A New Sensation at the Capital—Specific Charges Preferred Against High Officials. ‘The arrival here to-day of Judge Fullerton and Charles C. Yeaton, of New York, stirred up another breeze anent Internal Revenue fraud matters. Ful- lerton was with the President—Yeaton was with the President. Fullerton saw Evarts—Yeaton saw Evarts. Fullerton flew about mysterlously—Yeaton flew about mysteriously. Fullerton stopped at Willard’s—Yeaton ditto; but nobody could see either at the designated hotel or elsewhere, except in meteoric flashes, and nobody had a chance to shake Fullerton or to shake Yeaton by the hand, or to ask either Yeaton or Fullerton “What’s up about the impending whiskey fraud disclosures?” It was generally agreed, however, that something decidedly was up and something big, too, at that; but exactly what, was enveloped in the thick cloud which seems to have hung about all these whiskey and other revenue investigations that have got homeopathically, before the public. Whenever there is an inkling here in Washington that something startling is about to occur, and real facts cannot be got at, the canard mongers are sure to ply their vocation to some purpose. So they did to-day. A batch of sensational absurdities were soon on the market here. Roliins was removed— McCulloch had resigned—Courtney was kicked out of his District Attorneyship (telegrapbically of course)— Marshal Murray was treated to a like streak of good luck—Fullerton was commission to succeed Court- ney—Yeaton was made Commissioner of Internal Revenue, and Smythe “or any other man” was called to the Treasury. Such were the stories set Afloat, with just the thinnest possible foundation. But still such had its believers, who were wise and confident and knew whereof they spoke. The whole thing, so far as I am able to make out, is thi8:—Ful- lerton has made specific charges against certain United States officials and laid them before the President. These charges are something more weighty than those which have already been preferred, and have been required by the President as a preliminary step to the arraignment and trial of these certain oMicials. Fullerton having done this, picked up his traps again and cleared for New York, leaving Yeaton the fleld to himself, The Redistillation of Whiskey. Attorney General Evarts yesterday was in consult- ation with the officers of the Internal Revenue Bu- Teau on the question submitted to him for solution, whether distillers of whiskey have a right, according to the law, to redistill without being liable to a second tax. Although the opinion has not yet been ren- dered, there is every reason to believe that the state- ment heretofore given in these despatches is entirely correct. The Attorney General, it is understood, has seen no reason to change the opinion then given, Revenue Appointments To-Day. Gangers.—David B. Hall, Fourth district of Con- necticut; James M.

Good, Fourth district of Maryland. Supervisor Appointment for Ohio. Secretary McCulloch has confirmed the nomina- tion of Charles Bedges as Supervisor for the Northern district of Ohio, and he was to-day appointed to that office, Discharge of Treasury Clerks. The process of cutting down the clerical force of the Treasury Department still continues, and there are indications that the official guillotine will be busily at work throughout the whole of the com- ing winter. The Second Auditor’s and the Regis- ter’s offices are the only ones affected by the economical fit of Congress, however, as yet, but there are dim foreshadowings that several other bureaus will soon receive a visit from tt. The Secre- tary of the Treasury has notified Register Jeffries to prepare another list of fifty female clerks and count- ers for discharge on the Ist of December next, as before that time arrives the work of the bureau will beso far diminished that it witl be impossible to find employment for them, Another list of clerks for discharge on the lst of January next, numbering about two hundred, i8 being prepared at the office of the Sevond Auditor, The large foree that has béeon employed in this oMce since the war has rapidly disposed of the work which accu: mulated during; the war and since, in the shape of disbursing Of'cers' accounts filed there to be audited and settled and the claims’ for bounty and arrears of pay fr,c deceased soldiers, The pressure upon the ‘the medium of the novel.

A good cook is an excellent thing to have around the house, and next to the cook himself is his expe- rience in book form, especially when the author has been ches de cuisine in her British Majesty’s house- hold and has enjoyed the patronage of all the noble gourmands and epicures of Great Britain. Such is the author of this book, who learned his art, or pro- fession, as he calls it, on the Continent, in the most excellent schools. An octavo volume of over 580 Pages upon the single question of ooking dishes aa be expected to furnish a pretty good bill of fare, and, in looking over this volume, we do not miss any the most delicate palate that @ gentleman of Mr. Francatelli’s experience could insert. To housekeepers and cooks the book 1s of course invaluable, while to those who dine at Del- monico’s this “glossary,”” which is intended to ex- Plain what they are eating under unintelligible names, will be found very useful. a SEABOARD PakisH. By George Maddonald, Philadelphia: T. B. contrivance for suiti Dr. Macdonald is now one of the big names in modern literature. More successfully than any liv- ing author has he preached Christianity through This has been the leading characteristic of all his books—of “‘David Elginbrod,”’ of ‘Alec Forbes,” of “Guild Court,” of ‘Robert Fal- coner,” and the rest. The ‘Seaside Parish” furnishes Dr. Macdonald with another opportunity of propound- ing his theological opinions. Dr. Macdonald’s sentt- ments have always this to recommend them—that they are broad, generous and catholic in the true sense. A little more of this preaching, however, and we shall be sick of this novel-writing and some- what clever theological Scotchman, It seems as if it would by and by become @ necessity with this gen- tleman to take orders and preach after the old fasnion, Preaching is perhaps more a bore in this new shape than in the old. Katarina; HER LIFE AND MINE. By J. G. Hol- land, Scribner, New York. ‘ The peculiarity of this edition of Dr. Holland’s now well known poem is that it is printed on toned paper, that tt is profusely illustrated and that it is ornamentally and somewhat tastefully bound. We do not trouble ourselves at present with the merits of the poem, These we have already discussed. Indeed, we have but one thing to say, and that is that the illustrations reflect no honor on Messrs. Hennessy, Griswold and Lincoln. In our opinion they deface rather than adorn the book. We have no doubt, however, that the edition will have an ex- tensive sale. It will be one of the Christmas books of the year. Tux HoLy COMMUNION; ITS THEOLOGY, PHILOSOPHY ‘AND PRacTicg.

Re- turns received from the Mountain district to-night show the election of Plato Durham, conservative, for Congress, The delegation stands five republl- cans, two conservatives—a democratic gain of one, The oficial count increases the republican majority of New Hanover county, including Wilmington, to 167, being a republican gain of 245, SOUTH CAROLINA. RALEIGH, N. C., Nov. 7, 1868, A despatch from Columbia says that by a close count it ts positively asserted that South Carolina has gone democratic by 2,500 or 3,000 majority, GEORGIA. Avavsta, Nov. 7, 1868, Additional returns continue to increase the demo- cratic majority. From present indications it will reach 40,000, ALABAMA. MonTGoMERY, Nov. 7, 1868, Returns from thirty counties give Seymour and Blair majorities of 14,521 and Grant majorities of 23,600. Nearly all of the inhabitants of the remain- ing counties are white and will probably give a ma- Jority suMcient to overcome the majorities of the negro counties, The returns indicate that the result is doubtfal, ARKANSAS, LiTTLg Rock, Nov. 7, 1868. The radicals claim Pulaski county by 2,200, Sebas- tian by 7, Hempstead by 300, Deshia by 200, Pike by 200 and Jefferson by 1,800 majority. The demo- crats carry Salina by 600, White by 1,600, Prairie by 1,000 and Oachita, Drew, Union, Columbia and Woodruff counties by large majorities. It is conceded that Rogers, demo- crat, is elected in the Second district to Congress. The First and Third districts are doubtful. The democrats charge that the Governor's martial law proclamation was made to justify the stopping of the election in eleven democratic counties. Reports from Woodru®, Craighead and Little River counties show that the best feeling prevails among the citizens of all parties and colors. Martial law will be proclaimed in Little Rock and Pulaskt counties on Monday, GENERAL GRANT'S CABINET... To THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD:— With the usual farsightedness and shrewd good judgment of the HERALD, you have, in your Thurs- day’s issue, suggested for General Grant a cabinet which cannot fail to strike the whole country as an unusually good one. And it would seem simple Justice, at least, that he should heed the advice of that paper which was first to advocate his nomina- tion. Of twoof the gentlemen named my personal experience enablesme to speak. No man in the South deserves more from a republican administra- tion than William W. Holden, Governor of North Carolina. No one has been more unsparingly abused or more lit hated for adhering strictly to true democratic republican panep ies A Dougias demo- crat in 1860, he never gave his heart to the secession movement or its leaders, and only because of the boisterous tide whic! reedom of thought and speech. Disgusted with it, he head of a party for the reunion tes, and, as such, more than of personal (danger abuse equal Paitin in the Southern States, North Una is the only State where there is ae pemenes Ww! 0) ulation in its favor—and that is mainly ow! ta the wer of his pen and pane influence, ally ere is no more perfect nor vetter informed gentle- man. As to Henry G. Stebbins, the business men of New York know well his worth, and his record of patriot- ism during the war can well be looked upon by him- self with pride and satisfaction and by others witn admiration. With his quick, clear jus accomplished with one of the this country what European hi they acknowledge the superior! ciai minds in selecting him as their representative. the treasury Department who knows. something ent who knows some: about the money currents and waves, who ts a bask ness man and knows the business needs of the country, and New York, the great outgiver of the money and commerce of the country, has a right to th ition, and I heartily agree with yo that no worthier or more fit be selected for that pas than Henry G. Stebbins. If General Grant adopts at least these two of your tions he do well—he might adopt all and do still better, EUROPEAN MARKETS, LonDON MONEY MARKET.—LONDON, Nov. 7-2 P.
