The balances resent at the command of the Secretary, from 'l sources, are believed to be fully $160,000,000. THE RECONSTRUCTION COMMITTEE kad suother sossion to-day, but came to no conclusion. ‘They meot again on Friday; so that no report will be sub- mwitted to the House this week. CROWDS AT THE WHITE HOUSE. The storm to-day seems to have augmented the usual erowd at the White House. As early as 10 o'clock the Jobbies were tilled with statesmen aud pilgrims. Secretary income MeCulloch, Gen. Butler, Montgomery Blair, Representa- | tive Dorling and Hiram Walbridge of New-York, Sena tor | Buckalew of Penusylvania, and Mr. Stockton of New- | Jo reey were among the notables present, A RECONSTRUCTED SOUTHERNER. Col. Nixon, who to-day received his pardon, is publisher of The New-Orleans Crescent, the paper edited by Gen. Simon Bolivar Buckner, who deserted from the Union Arwy after two months_ service tempora belli in 1861, the wost atrocious Rebel sheet published apywhere iu the South-West, & paper which in Apnl, 1862, while under Nixon’s management, invoked the terrors of yellow fever | sgainst Ben. Butler's army, then besieging Fort St | Philip. * MONSIEUR TONSON COME AGAIN."” Senator Doolitile of Wisconsin was the Conservative Senator 1o whom allusion was made yesterday as express- ing hit contempt for the parties who could perpetrate so cruel & joke, as he supposed it to be, of returuing thanks for the appointment of Wade Hampton as Postmaster at Pittsburgh. The confusion at the Department was ¢ aused by ignorance of the fact that there were three Wadea Hamptons in the country, the Rebel General, the Pittsburgh wvew Postmaster, and an old wployé in The New-Orleans Delta office, existence was discovered by Gen. Butler upon an exami- »ation of the cash books of that concern in s charge of $2 for whipping Wade.” The latter Wade was found to Jegitimately belong to the colored wing of the Hampton family. THE INDIANA CONSPIRATORS. There appears to be o general misunderstanding as to the result arrived at by the Supreme Court, in the case of Milligan aud the other Golden Cirele conspirators. The line of argument on the Jconstitutional question put forth by Gen. Butler was not objected to seriously, but the case weut off on the habeas corpus sct of 1863. The Court #tood five for the discbarge of the petitioners and four sgainet, and it is well understood that no two Judges agree ou suy live of reasoning, but each will deliver au opinion of bis own, DISTRICT REGULATIONS. A petition is in circulation here praying Congress 1o en- sct a civil code, a general corporation law, aud allow the District & delegate in Congress. | A REASON. ‘The reason supposed to have influenced the Naval Com- mittee in rejecting the offer of the Canton Land Company of Baltimore is the improssion that the offer was made simply to aid iu appreciating that Company’s stock in Wall-st. CULVER, PENN & CO. The Crawford County National Bauk of Meadville, Pa., | sud the Venango Natioual Bank of Pa. are the only ones seriously affocted by the failure of Culver, Penn & Co. of New-York. The first named bank has no National wotes in circulation. The Controller of the Currency has wppointed receivers o take charge of the affairs of the banks referred to. INTERNAL REVENUE AND CONSCIENCE MONEY. The receipts from Internal Revenue to-day were $624,013, while the Conscience Fund of the Treasury was further increased by $50, received through Postmaster- General Denuison from an anorymous party in Boston, BOLDIERS' GRAVES. The War Department to-day issued an order to the owners of property iu the South, forbidding them from distusbing in any mauner the graves of Union soldiers iuterred on the battle-fields of the Rebellion. Provost- Marshals and commanding officers of military posts in the Bouth are directed by the Secretary of War to report all violations of the order. WEEDING OUT THE IMBECILES.
