Morehouse, the well, known popular and responsible news dealer of this city, baa brought suit against Mayor Caven and others for false imprisonment, in sending him to jail for costs, as noticed yesterday, for riding his horse while delivering papers, on the eklewalk. The position taken by him is that imprisonment for debt is unlawful. The question has been mooted before, as it relates to municipal costs, but as no one has seen fit to take the trouble and expense of & suit, the matter has never been tested before the proper tribunal. Mr. M. intends to have the matter settled judiciously. A Mistake. Many travelers are misinformed in regard to the Morris Station eating bouse, situated on the Indianapolis and Cincinnati railroad, it baring been reported that the morning trains from Indianapolis do not stop for breakfast. Twenty minutes are allowed for all trains running either from Cincinnati, for meals. P. F. Carroll, late of the Spencer House. Cincinnati, is the proprietor, and superintends at each meal the carving. All the weary traveler has to do on his arrival at Morris Station is, at the ring of the bell, to steo in and call for the delicacies of the season. Polite waiters are in attendance. One call at this popular eating bouse is all that is required for a taste of good living. 13-3t Tkatelkr. 57" We call attention to the advertiseraeLt of Messrs.

The Detroit ale, consisting of old stock, tale and amber, and London porter, will be kept constantly on band. in bottles or barrels.

A Hot at Ilm President' Ilccoptlon 71 r. I Inrotn anallrr i riendt. A Washiogton letter, giving an account of the President's levee on New YearV, (Jatuary 2J,) contains the following: To the right of the prefident, the two private secretaries intervening, stood Mrs. Lincoln, wjth lion. lt. B. French, doing the honors. Many persons, the majority evidently acquaintances. paid their respects to her, after beiDg presented to the president; but the crowd mostly passed her by with a stolen glance or a rude atare. Mrs. Lincoln is not popular either with men or women; and of the latter ahe probably has fewer genuine friend than any lady that has filled her fctatiou before her. Parasites in crinoline attend her; but she is not loved by her friends; and she is hardly respected by females in society t-ear enough her own grade to know all abouUher. Among the crowd aernbled iu front of the portico, before the doors were thrown open to the people, were several hundred colored people of both sexes tho wenches the most numerous, who had come to pay their respects to the president. As a general thing they were well and neatly dreed, some, both male and female, being with tbeir white companions. Both in richness and fahhionableness of attire.they indirectly represent the boa ton of negro society in Washington; alloyed by a smart sprinkling of colored divines, who think they gain a victory over the devil every time they succeed in obtruding themselves in white society upoo pretended terms of quality; and a corporal's guard of negro soldiers, who, no doubt, thought themselves justly entitled to the privilege of paying their New Year's compliments to the chief magistrate of the country tbey are fighting for. The white people made no demonstration whatever on account of their presence, no doubt supposing they would confine themselves to the station assigned them by custom, and bring up the rear of the president's visitors; but when, upon the doors being opened, it was discovered that they intended to seek ingrcs with the crowd, by their pressing forward shoulder to shoulder with the whites, a ecene of excitement followed which did anything but honor to the occasion. Many negroes had reached the portico, and some hsd passed the door, when the demonstration on the part of the whites, aroused to deep indignation, warned the special police that trouble was brewing. "They are letting the tie groes in," exclaimed a score of voices, male and female. "Put them out," was roared by as many men, who looked willing enough to perform the act tbemetvet. "Goto the kitchen, O dd n you," yelled a rough hewn Foldier, who forgot I he wasn't in camp. Yet the negroes pressed forward, and peemed determined to gain admit taiice in spite of these significant demonstrations, snd of the interference of the police, who told them they could not enter. By this time the disturbance was noticed by thoe it.bide the mansion, and its cause was son interpreted by the inmates when they became aware of the presence of a score or more of ce roea among themselves. The nature of the case was soon made known to Marshal Lamon, who immediately instructed his deputies (policemen; to eject the negroes and prevent all further ingress of the same. After some confusion this was done, and quiet was restored, but not before such a hubbub ha-1 been created in the reception room at Mrs. Lincoln thought it consistent with her dignity to retire. After the reception of the whites wa over, such of the neerocs as re mained were admitted snd received by Mm. Lin- j coin. These were not many, as the majority had gone off in high dudgeon.

I Fro si Tlie Rxbmoa-1 Di.-ptcb, Jaa C Our Wilmington correspondent states that an Koglish officer who was with Sir Charles Xa pier in the Baltic, and who was alao in Sebasto pol says that the fire of the federal fleet upon Fort Fisher, on the 6th ult., exceeded anything he bad ever seen. But, fearful as this bombardment was, it was a mere prelude to the infernal fire or Christmas day. From 10 in the morning till 6 in the evening there was such a rain of shot ar.d 6hell as never before fell upon any spot of earth since gunpowder was invented, and yet the fort remained uninjured, and not a dozen men were kille!. UK3ERAL UOOD ACROSS TUR TENNESSER. From The Richmond Examiner, January 6. The telegram from General Hood announces that bis army had crossed the Tennessee, without material loss, since the battle in front of Nashville, implies that he had previously reported to the president, or to the war department, some of the facts of the unfortunate battle. If any such di?patch has been received, it has been filed among the archives of the war department. The details on our side will come in a form sufficient ly authentic, no doi M, to enable the public to form a more clear or definite opinion of thegrand Tennessee campaign, and the manner in which it was conducted, than can be arrived at in the absence of official statements. It is not probable that Hood's army will be in a condition to make a new advauce for two or three weeks. A very large portion of the men must be sorely fatigued br the long and rapid march which they hve just concluded; and we presume that mauy of them require an outfit of clothing and shoes. What the facilities of supplying these wants are we do not know. In the meantime, it becomes a question of interest what phae the next campaign in the west will assume. "GEORGIA IS NOT RKADT FOR SUBMISSION." The Richmond Enquirer of the Cth int., has the following: Every one mudt have observed the difference in the tone of Sherman's letter addressed to the Yankee commandant at Iluntsville from that employed by him in his communications with the people of Georgia. Then he announced the policy ol the federal government to expatriate the population of the south and supply their places with slaves and aliens. Now he is all kinduess and clemency. The people of Georgia are to be protected in their persons and property. lie expects to own a thousand slaves. Emancipation is a war measure to cease with submission. We are told that the people ol Savannah are to be better taken care of under the Lincoln government than under that which thev elected themselves Georgia is not ready for submission. We demand public meetings in Georgia. We want to hear the voice of her brave and true patriots. Rally the men. Encourage the people. Comfort the feeble. Warn those who confide in the transparent cheat of the Yankees. Animated with a determination to stand together, the passage of Sherman through the state will not weaken our cause. The stern determination of the people will close behind the invader as the water follows the keel, and the world will be convinced that, united in our resistance, we are invincib!e. stati; iti:.ti. The next drsft takes place on St. Valentine's day. lion. C. M. Allen, of Vincennes, has ob tained a permit from the treasury department to trade in cotton at or near Memphis, ar.d has left his home for that purpose.

Carroll county has oflere-i a bounty for volunteers Bi'R ed to Death The Monticello Herald says: "The yourgeat child of J.ime Wallace, Esq., of this r1'. little girl about four years old. met her death ou SnuJay evening Ust, under the following circumtanees: On Saturday evening, between four and o'clock, in attempting to light a candle ith a match, f.he set her clothes oa fire. Her s rem brought her mother from an adjoining room, when she was found with her clothes partly burned off her. In places her arms aud breast appeared to be burned to the bone Remedies were ap plied immediaiely, but without effect. Her sufferings were very great until about eleveu o'clock vu Sabbath evening, when she expired." It is said that the gentle una Dickinson is about to abandon the slump and raise a negro regiment for the field.

The construction of a bridge over the Ohio, at Iiellair, will be commenced in the spring. The enterprise is undertaken by the Baltimore and Ohio Kailroad Company. It is estimated it will require 2,500 men three years and a half to complete the work. Said a Boston merchant to a millionaire the other day, in a jocose rein : "I am in doubt about taking your cote. You confess, I see, to to an income of only $13,000, while your expenditures, you will not deny, are at least double that amount." Tbe millionaire laughed, but a faint blush mantled bis cheek. A curious ceremony has icst taken place at Faris. Voltaire's heart, which had been kept as a curiosity by a family into whose possession it had come, has jut presented it to a museum, the Cabinet des Jdedailles, and it was deposited there with some solemnity, two ministers of state assisting. It will be news to most of us that Voltaire had a heart. Citizens of Philadelphia hard subscribed and raised a fund with which to purchase and present to the wife of Lieut. Gen. Grant a new first class residence, furnished from top to bottom. Mrs. Grant has been officially notified of the gratifying fact, and will no doubt take no her residence in that city when sprinc comes round It was her New Year's present.

The Bltir?, father and eon, are aguin tn route for Richmond, this time doubtless clothed with ho me sort of official authority to treat with the confederate chiefs for the purpose of bringing about peace upon the basis of the union. That they may succeed, if such is their intention, will be the e.irnest desiro of all, without distinction of party, who love tbeir country. From the statements of our Washington correspondents, and the tone of the extracts from the Richmond press, given elsewhere, it would seem as if it were barely possible that the war was substantially over. Evidently these peace negotiations have been going on longer, and have progressed further, than hs been sciirnlly suspected. Until the result of the Blair minion is known, there will be but little inteie.-t in the movements of our armies. N. Y. World. Telegraphic Dispatches, jfon axnta.tsLvrcarBX an.r state nimni..

Mr. Doolittle explained hy he should vote for the resolution. . A motion to refer the subject to the judiciary committee was lost. The yeas and nays were then called on the passage of the resolution which was adopted Teas 31, navs 8. On motion of Mr. Sumner the Senate proceeded to the consideration of the resolution to repeal the reciprocity treaty. Mr. Howe took the floor in opposiiiou to the repeal of the treaty at 1.30 p. m. Mr. Brown interrupted Mr. Howe by asking that the Senate take a recess of ten minutes, to allow the members to pay their respects to Admiral Farrsgut.who was on thefioor. Recess was taken. On reassembling Mr. Anthoov offered the following, which was adopted: Resolved, That the committee on the conduct of the war be directed to inquire into the cause of tbe failure of the late expedition to Wilmington, and to report back to the Senate. Mr. Howe resumed the flooron the reciprocity treaty. Mr. Morrill euccccdeJ him, and advocated the repeal of the treaty. Mr. Chandler favored the repeal. The board of trade of Detroit did not represent the peoplo of Michigan when they opposed its repeal. They represented only the interests of merchants. But the farmers of Michigan were not in favor of the treaty. 1 he people ol Canada had been in sympathy with the rebel. Mr. Harlan offered a resolution instructing the secretary of war to stispeud all the pay and al lowances ol omcers of the command of Colonel SheriDgton, of Colorado, until an investigation of the conduct of Col. Sherington could be taken. Tbe resolution was ordered to be nrinted. The Senate then went ioto extra ?eiGn. and soon after adjourned. HOUSE. Mr. Elliott introduced a substitute for the bill to reorganize the rebel states, providing that none of them shall be allowed to resume their politi cal relations until the loyal citizens organize a government republics in form, and forever prohibiting slavery; and further providing that Lou isiana shall resume her political relations under her constitution, adopted in 1ÖG4. The substitute was ordered to be printed. The House resumed the discussion of the proposed amendment. Mr. Smith of Kentucky felt it to be his duty to lay aside all personal considerations and pre judices, and devote himelf alone to his couutry, and nothing he contended was so destructive to our peace which had been proclaimed in this house. This doctrine, if cairied out, would subrert all the piinciples of government and republicanism, aud bring us to a position el perfect despotism and ruin. lie denied tbe argument of the gentleman from Ohio Mr. Pendleton that the right of revolution exists at all times, but admitted that any people would be justified in resorting to revolution whenever the government becomes so oppressive or despotic as not to be borne, and when there are no othor means of redress ; yet gentlemen here are bold and audacious enough to go a step beyond the most ultra southern fireeaters. It was the duty of congress to pass this joint resolution, in order to afford the people an opportunity of passing upon the amendment, and is was the duty of the people to adopt it. We should destroy slavery, root and branch, as soon as possible; we must have the union without slavery, and no vote of his should be given but for that which looks to the utter, absolute abolition ol slavery throughout the United States. He thanked God he had seen tbe day when we can wipe out slavery, and Kentucky acquiescing in the act, will stand among the grandest states of the union. Mr. Smith also spoke ol the advantages which would result from free labor in the south, both in an economical aud patriotic aspect. Mr. Cox, of Ohio, said that the administration party had made an anti slavery amendment to the constitution a part of their political creed. Tbe opposition at Chicago proposed, as their issue, the cessation of hostilities with a view to calling a national convention, in pursuance of the fifth article of the constitution, regarding thij as the most practical way of settling our difficulties. The Chicago convention waived all other ques tions. In casting bis vote nominating Pendleton for the Vice Presidency he knew that gentleman indorsed the cessation of hostilities and calling of a national convention. If his colleague had been elected to that office which he would have graced so well, he would now be appealing to the people of tbe north and south to call a coavention of all the people, anJ the north would have yielded, and his (Cox's) information was that the south would hot hold back. He proceeded to argue why, in a state ol war, he was opposed to making suh a radical amendment, although not questioning the power to do it. If he thought by voting for the amendment he could save the Union, ho would do so. Mr. Thayer, of Pennsylvania, spoke in favor of the amendment. The House, at 4 o'clock, adjourned. FOR SALE.

The Very Latest,

THREE O'CLOCK A. M. Kiw Yoac. January V2 It is announced that Geo. McCleilan leaves for his European tour the firt eck of Februtrv lie has declined the oJTer of a private ve?ae teaflcreJ Dj hu frsend. lie leaves In the steamer China, and will be gone two years. Nearly all the papers to day contain editoriaLi on the peace rumors. The World says Mr. Lincoln baa authority under the constitution to offer amnesty by abolishing slavery, and Jefi. Davis could not, under the constitution of the confederate states, secept euch an offer. Individual states alone have the dictation in tbe matter. The Times doe not look for any good reiult from the more,' and thicks the whUcerb of peace only indicate a brief lull. The Pott thinks if the rebslcomm'iocers ste on the way to Wahinrton, reported, they will accomplish nothirg. It thicks such a movement would be nothing lesi than a studied insult to our rovercment. If the cov eminent should re ceive them It would equally insult the people of tne border states. The Post claims to have information that Gov. Brown is favorably dipoed and would probably receive agents from tne United blate. 1 be liersld thinks the conduct of Miouri. in passing the emancipation act, will soon be Imita ted by Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee and Del aware. The World ssys the psssare was wise, the steo resulting from a clear-sighted perception of the tendency or events, snd thinks if the war would end to morrow and the states to return jiriadic tion over tne subject, all woula follow the ex ample of Maryland and Missouri. 1 he 1 ribune is briefly exultant, but makes no comment. The Tost points out advantages possessed by laborers ana manuiacturers under tbe new ays tern. The Commercial thinks the action of Mis souri is an argument in favor of the passage of the constitutional amendment. General Sherman, iu a letter to Quartermaster General Meigs, dated Savannah, says: lou may use my name in any circular ad lre?ed to tne quartermasters of tne army, to the effect that every part of tbe southern country will fupport their armici by a judicious system of e !... i iwragiiig. i our aoiraaia are iosi to your department while standing hitched to their wsgons du ring the long and seemingly hard msrehes into the interior. General Meigs adds, during the remaikable march the trains found an abundauce of forage, and the chief quartermaster reports from Savan nab than transportation is even in a better con dition than when the march commenced; better than he had ever before seen. No hore or mules are required from the northern department to refit thU army, after a march of nearly 3.000 mile through a bo6ti!e country. uen. liutler, in his farewell address to Ire Army of the James, pays a high compliment to the conduct of the troops in the field and camps, paying they bare captured forts which tho enemy deemed impregnable and beld them against assaults, lie says their lines of defense are objects of universal admiration, lie says he has refused to order a useless sacrifice of his soldiers. A portion of his adJrcis is devoted to the colored troops, of whose bravery and faithfulness Gen. Butler speaks in the highest terms. Gen. Banks, in his suggestions to the committee on tbe judiciary, says the condition of affairs in Louisiana was such that be did not assume it in his proclamation for an election whether slavery was or was not an institution required by law. He says when tbe canvass opeccdj 1 votes were cast in parishes formerly giving 155 votes, and a third or two thirds of the voting population of the state participated in the election. He accounts for the diminished rote on the new con stitution on the ground that many failed to participate through fear that congress would not ratify it. He denies all charges of Interference with the election by the military authorities. He claims the actual vote to be more than a one third vote. He says the population has been reduced, by various causes, from 70,800 to 45,000. Gen. Danks refers to the significant Mexican government of Napoleon, and claims he would, upon convenient pretext, plant the rench flag on the west bank of tbe Mississippi tiver. Hence the importance o! supporting the United States government in Louisiana br every means possible. The Richmond Dispatch says that Sherman's new policy is all mildness and conciliation, in order to justify harsh measures hereafter. It thinks gome design ia concealed in his apparent mildness. It says that Sherman formerly declared that rebels had no rights whatever, and refers to the response of his application to the people of Vicksburg, aud his orders at Atlanta, and thinks that his present conduct is designed to de ceive the people ot Georgia. It abuses tbe mayor of Savannah and the people who attended the meeting where resolutions were passed highly patriotic, and the utmost confidence is expressed that none of them except the msyor and seventeen citizens of Savannah will prove disloyal to the south. A Mobile dispatch ot the 7th says the Fort Gaines prisoners who were exchanged arc now in Mobile. The Richmond Whig learns from The Lynchbnrg Republican that a large number of hmd? hr.ve been employed on the Tennessee railroad, to repair the damages caused by tbe Stoneman raid. Tbe work will be rushed forward with energy, and it is hoped that the repairs will be completed within six weeks or two months. Washington, January lti. Since the 10-40 loan closed returns have been made to the treasury amounting to about $32,000,000. This would leave outstanding about $40.000,000 of the two hundred million loan. As other returns are to be made, the amount unsubscribed will Le further reduced. The Senate, in executive session to day, confirmed the following nominations by tbe President: John Wilion, of Delaware, to be 3d auditor of the treasury; Stoddart Colbv, of Vermont, to be register of the treasury; Elijah Sells, of Iowa, to be auditor of the treasury for the postoffice department. The report of the commissioner of agriculture for November and December savs: However great the loss from labor, more especially in the western states, an unusual amount of wheat, rye, and barley has been sown. The weather has been favorable for putting these crops in, and the price ef labor during the time in which to operate has been equally as favorable for tbe growth of these crops, and, 6hould they escape freezing out, the spring will open with the promise cf an undiminished yield of thee stapled. The Senate to-day received a message from the president concerning the naval armament of the northern lakes, inclosing a report from tbe secretary of state which ehowa that the limitation of the force to be maintained was sought by th'.s government, and that the treaty with Great Britain was somewhat informal, yet it appeared to have been duly approved by the president. ratified by the senate and proclaimed by law. Several days ago the committee on judiciary was instructed to inquire 'if further legislation was necessary to enable the president to call an extra session of congress to meet the necessity of public emergency, without giving sixty days no'.ice to the members elect. The committee to d;i v was discharged from the consideration of the object, a no law could be found requiring te .resident to give any notice whatever. Atleait ix members of the House are prepared to speak on the anti-slavery amendment in addition to those already spoken. A vote will probably be taken this week. Its friends are not yet satisfied the president will be fivorsb!e to them. We Advmiral Farngut visited the Senate today in company with Capt Drayton, commander of the admiral's flag ship. The admiral afterwards vüiud the House of Representatives, where many of the members were introduced to him.
