ENGLAND. Honor to George Feabody’s Memory. LONDON, Nov, 6, 1869, The death of Mr. Peabody occurred so late on Thursday evening (half-past eleven) that the fact could not be widely published until to-day. His death is universally regretied. Fiags flying at half. mast, buildings draped in various parts of the city and other evidences of mourning attest the public sorrow. The London News of this morning, in its obituary article, says:— Mr. Peabody was not a man of tmpulsive, emo- tional benevolence, but rather of judicious, wideiy spread beneficence, His liverality was not postu. mous. He gave from his own substance; did not surrender what death wrested irom him. His ser- vices, both to his native and adopted country, were Seay. and graciously recognized in royal letters and the thanks of Congres: Merchants, in passing his statue daily, do not need to learn from the con- summate man of business low to gain money.

Speech of Governor Hofman—What the Democratic Party Propose to Do—The State of New York and All Its Brauches to be Thoroughly DemocraticmAn Honest Legts- lature and Local Self-Government Promised. ALBANY, Nov. 6, 1869. Governor Hoffman last night, in the course of his speech in response to a serenade by the Jacksonians, said:— Tnotice that mogt of the radical papers in Albany and New York are asking, “What will they do with is?’—that is, witht he victory, I am hardly dis- posed to tel) them that just yet, I prefer to give them @ little time to digest the returns, and when these are fully digeated we propose to give them some information as to what we will do with 4 In my observatious I have found that know- ledge suddenly acquired is never very profitable. But I will tell them, in general terms, one or two things we propose todo. We propose to make the Legislature of the State of New York honest; and that is what they have not done in sometime. We Propose to use the Legisiature for the purpose of Promoting the interests of the mass of the peo- ple, and not the Interests of the few—which the radicals have not done in a long time. The Evening Journal has stated that for many years there have been a few men in the republican Legis- latures who could be bought. We will show them that in @ democratic Legislature there will be none ofthat kind. We propose to give to the people of the State of New York, all over, the right of self- government. We propose to abolish such laws as infringe upon the rights of localities and secure to them the right to govern themselves, We will not abolish such laws and give the people something worse, but will gtve them better laws. We propose to make the State of New York and the government in all its branches thoroughly democratic, 1am aware of the responsibilities this victory imposes. I am aware of the responsibilities it imposes on me as Executive of this State. I realize their magnitude and I will not say I have no fear of them. But by the help of the people and their representatives and all the good counsel 1 can get, I hope in my sphere to so discharge its duties that the people will approve my action. 1 believe that the Legislature, which is about to assemble ana legislate upon the affairs of this great ‘State; will act with such wisdom and discretion as to show to the people of the State and country that the democracy of this State can be as moderate in the hour of victory as they have been patient in the hour of defeat. We willbe discreet and tolerant; we will recognize honest men among our adver- saries, we will deal justly, act honorably and pro- mote the great interests of the people of the State of New York, who have demanded and worked a change.

Education of Women=A Womnn’s View of the Subject. The stated weekly meeting of the Woman's Par- Mament was held at the rooms tu Packard's Bulld- ing yesterday afternoon. There were about fifty ladtes present. Two male reporters for morning journals put in an appearance at the commencement, but in a few moments q uietiy withdrew, at the courteous invitation of tae secre- tary, Mrs. Croly. Mrs. Dr. Dinsmore was chosen temporary presi- dent, the Parliament not having yet perwaneatly organized. Mrs, Jennie June Croly acted as secretary. Upon taking the chair the object of the meeting and the good results sought to be reached through the organization wore clearly set forth by Mrs, DiInsMORE, The minutes of the previous meeting were then read and approved. The principal feature of the meeting in question was the reading of a paper by Madame Dsmorgst, entitled Business “BUSINESS FOR GIRLS." The following is a condensatto Useful, compensated labor affords the only means of independence and of growth, physically, mentaliy and morally, Men have learned the lesson long azo; no man Is respectable in the highest sense who isan idler.

Educate young men a3 most irls are cducated—expecting somebody to provide for them—and they acquire habits and tastes of ex- travagance. If men, with their assumed superior capability of making money aud managing it, stand thus in need of practical education to Insure success, why, then, accuse women of want of ability in these respects When few opportunities are given for the needed experience? Among meu remuneration 13 the acknowledged lever of action, and ts as general ag it 18 positive, For this reason, parents, let your daughters learn some —remunerative business, Select for thom as you do for your sons, according to natural or apparent capability. No longer expect of them proficiency in an endless round of what are called domestic duties, whether they like them or not, and any department of which is a sctence in itself. A woman is expected to know a little of everything, and nothing tho- rouchily or scientifically, under the present system of training, or rather want of training. It is, therefore, quite impossivie that she should possess any special ability. The truth is women are adapted to many professions and a variety of omploy- ments; and every year the range of remwune- ralive associations 13 Nicht | and new ones aro undertaken suited to various degrecs of capability and refinement. Female professors 0c- cupy college stations, and in the medical profession women have completely triumphed over the preju- dices and jealousies of men. ‘Telegrapling, book- keeping and typesetting are being successfully pur- sued, and the Way now ts comparatively clear; but no eminent position in life, it must be remembered, is attained without prompt and earnest effort to overcome diMiculties. omen must work from themecives and for themselves. It is against all law to expect mental or physical strength without the equivalent personal effort. Women are accustomed to look upon Obstacles as exceptional, and expect to flnd only roses in the new line of action. The majority of men accept diliculties aa a rule and grapple earnestly with each and every hindrance interposing between the desire and the attainment of the position they havein view. It only remains for women to do battle as determinedly to conquer, Let opinion cry you down scornfully a3 tt will; meet it with indifference, with @ religious sense of’ duty, with truth and without fear. The barriers of cou. ventionality have been raised so high that the only bere of oyerthrowing them exists in the unton of nnmbus linked together by effort.

One of the queries preferred by atlew delegate during the afternoon was the very nawral one as to what spectes of ladies she would come ‘2 social contact with at tho weekly meetings of the Lyles’ Parliament, Espectally was the lady desirous of knowing “if #ho must, of neceasity, associate with. everybody.” To which solicitude Mrs. Croly replied, in the way of rebuke, to tho effect that before a woman could become very useful in the World she must, in some degree, change and ex- change her views with others of both sexes. ‘The SECRETARY algo read a letter she had recetved from the Oneida Community, in which were detailed the plans and benefits of co-operative housekeeping, which really furnished to young housekeepers many very nseful connections.

Secretary Boutwell on Specie Payments. Commodore Higgins, of the Cuban Navy. His Statement Relative to the Pri- vateer Hornet. RIOT IN AN AFRICAN CHURCH. WASHINGTON, Noy. 6, 1869, Secretary Boutwell and the Sp: Pr pat Canard. The story published in one of the New York papers that quite 4 commotion has been created here over a plan in contemplation by Secretary Boutwell to resume specie payments on January 113 a pure in- vention. The, absurdity of the despatch ts apparent on the face of it, The despatch mentions that “the Precise mode which he will adopt to bring about that result is not clear.” ‘This is emphatically true, and the effort to plan some process whereby such a result might be reached makes up a decidedly foggy case of financial reasoning. Secretary Boutwell said this evening that such a step was not only impracticable but impossible; that he never talked on the resump- tion of specie payment to any one, He had enough to occupy his attention to see that the revenue 18 collected, that the interest on the debt is promptly and regularly pald, and that the finances of the government are kept in a healthy condition. The invention in question be character- ized as foolish, absurd and sensationally manufac- tured out of whole cloth, He further said that it would require some legisiation on the part of Con- gress to extend his power to withdraw bonds over a certain amount, and even tf it were possible to come back to specie pay- ment it could not be done in the time Stated, So it willfurther be seen that the state- ment ts false, Asto tho anticipated decision of the Supreme Court that the Legai Tender act is unconsti- tutional, it would be dificult to say upon what grounds any such a statement cau be founded in advance of any action of the court in the matter. The whole subject was so utterly without foundation that the Secretary considered it not worth talking about. The Gold in the Treasury. The increase of gold in the Treasury this month will be equal to the amount hitherto realized in the same time, though this will not be shown in the statements on the first of the preset month. Tho amount of the gold interest was charged against the government in full, though the whole amount has not yet been drawn. The 1st of December will, 113 expected, show no falling off in the aggre- gate amount, notwilistanding the heavy draftsin the meantime. Commodore Higgins and Hornet. Commodore Higgins and Surgeon McNulty arrived here to-day from Wilmington, N. ©, on their way to New York. The former ts in full and the latter in half dress naval costume. The Surgeon contradicts a statement which has been published to the detriment of Commodore Higgins, The tacts are that before leaving Montauk Point Commodore Higgins was severely wounded !n one of his eyes by the parting of a hawser, and when he reached Wilmington ho was sulfering severely from the effects of the accident. The Surgeon suggested that Commodore Higgins’ wife should be sent for to attend him. The Commodore consenting, she was telegraphed to come to Wilmington, In- steaa of the lady being in Wilmington when the vessel was scized she did not arrive there until six days afterwards, in obedience to the telegram, The probability is that the Cuba wiil be bonded; at least the owners of the vessel were, at last accounts, en- gaged in proceedings with that end In view. Wil- mington papers of yesterday, juat received here, speak in highty favorable terms of the manner in which the officers and crew of the Cuba conducted themseives during the judicial proceedings tn their case, and state that two of those held to bail have already left the city, and the others under bonds will s00n follow, also, for New York, Serious Riot at a Negro Church—Policemen Bente Late last night, as services were being held in the colored church (mission), where a revival is in progress, @ disturbance arose between a portion of tne congregation. Oficer Lawler, of the Seventh precinct, ordered tho rioters to disperse. He was resisted, however, and Officer Brown, of the same precinct, came to his assistance. As the officers were attempting to arrest some of the most notori- ous of the ruifians, they were suddenly set upon by & gang of men, their weapons taken away and they were fearfully beaten, Some held the oficera while others beat them with clubs and stones, others, again, milicting severe gashes witn knives or razors. UMcer Brown’s head was cut in several places, his jaw broken, and the injuries on other portions of the body are ao severe that his recovery is doubtful, Oficer Lawler’s injuries are also very severe. As soon as the news of the riot reached the police station the whole force of the precinct was ordered out, but on arriving at the church the rioters had dispersed, Four of the rioters were arrested, and six or eight more of them are known to the police, The following appears ta the Alexandria Gazette and is dated Chailotteville, Va.:—Mrs. Solomon and her son, living about eight mtlos from here, were bratally murdered last night. They were found this morning with their heads split open, No arrests have yet been made. Revenue Frauds in Pennsylvania. Supervisor Fulton, of Pennsylvania, nas secured the arrest of F. G. Pompeji for selling tobacco with counterfelt stamps. The Supervisor has also or- dered the scizure of the whoiesale liquor establish- ment of Henri Killian for violation of the law. There were 200 barrels of raw spirits among the articles seized, the Privateer Personal. Among the distinguished geutiemen who called on the President to-day were Mr. Catacazy, the Russian Minister; Gonerat Harney, Senator Patterson, of New Hampshire; Representatives Keliey, of Penn- sylvania; Orth, of Indiana; Oburchill, of New York; Jenckes, of Rhodo Island; ex-Secretary of the Inte- rior, and Governor Batlock, of Georgia, The latter had an interview to-lay with the President and members of the Cabinet with reference to the agri- cultural fair at Macon, G@a., the people of that State desiring their attendance during its continuauce. They expressed their regret that public duties, tn view of the near approach of the moeting of Von- gress, would prevent their acceptance of the invita- tion, but hoped the fair wontd prove a success. It 1s expected that Commisstoners Vapron, Delano and Fisher, Senator Pomeroy and other gontiomen of prominence will leave here for Macon next Frt- day. Senator Abbott, of North Carolina, arrived here to-day and is searching the city for winter quarters. UM‘ED STATES SUPREME COURT. The Case of the Schooner Lucy—Argument for the Dismissal of the Suit. WASHINGTON, Nov. 6, 1866, No, 294, The Sohooner Lucy vs. The United States— Appeal from the Circutt Court for the Dis- trict of Florida,.—This is a motion to dismiss tho @peal. The District Court below entered a decree of condemnation in the cause August 4, 1862, and the f!aimant in open court gave notice of an appeal to ti/# court. On the 15th of the same month appea, Was allowed. Afterwards, in October, the record. Was filed in the Cironlt Court, “by reason Of an Yt of Congress, approved July 15," of the same year, establishing a Circuit Court im that District,’ In » May, 1867, thecause Wad transmitted to this Court by con- gent of Dares. Tue Attorney Genera and Mr Ashton for the captors, move to 183, submitting that this Court sequires no Jurisdiction of the case by the order of the Circuit, because the third section of the act under Which It was sent to the Circuit, did not provide for tts removal there. Under the act of Congress of 1845 the jurisdiction of the District and Circuit Courts for this district was the same, and appeals were direct to this Court, This act of i345 was repealed by the act of July, 1862, and therefore this Court acquired no jurisdiction by reason of the appeal from the decree of the District Court; and there being no provision in the act of 1#62, providing for appeal in this cage to ihe Circult Court from the Disuict Court, the cause Was never regularly before the former court, and this court has no ‘jurisdiction under either statute on appeal from either court.
