There was one death from cholera in the New York Hospital on Sunday. The total receipts of Internal Revenue on Saturday amounted to ?4,232,376 80. The total receipts from customs during the last week amounted to 56,939,953.

Prof. Howell, of Cincinnati, died oil Suaday. - Si' - - A i

" R. T. Armstrong, formerly of Cincinnati, "was billet in Paris, Ky., on Saturday.

There -were seven suicides in C incinnati

last week. -'- K ;"' " v'f; Upwards of 40,000 people attended the funeral of John J. Davis, Grand rMaster of Odd Fellows, In New York on Sunday! Earnest efforts are being made to reduce the number of , volunteers In .the service. The joint resolution was not likely to be reached In the Senate yesterday unless specially called up. . , . The Senate is said to be much ahead of the House In point of business, although the appropriation bills passed by the House are pressing on the Senate. A Sf&v, Orleans special to the Commercial says one white roan and five negroes were burned to death ,at a fire on New Levee Street In that city. Jeff. Davis, it Is said, received the intelligence of his indictment with Indifference. His main point of defence will be based on the prerogative of every citizen to sustain the official action of his State.

Gov. Goodman, delegate from Arizona, has no doubt of the truth of the reported capture ot Fort Goodman and the massacre of the garrison. The new excise law was pretty generally enforeedn New York on Sunday. The restaurants were open, however. There were eighty-six arrests for enfringements of the law. ' The Commissioner of Agriculture has received from the Austrian Agriculture Society some choice seeds donated to the United States for experimental purposes. The Commissioner believes they will prove a valuable acquisition to the agricultural Interests of the country, "The Legislative, Executive and Judicial appropriation bill was to be reported yesterday, and will be considered probably nt once. Among the items of the bill as it passed the House is an appropriation of $200,000 for issuing Treasury notes and authorized loans.' ' " ' : , ';,''' A proviso requiring that no more money be expended on experiments in Hydrostatic j Printing until a specific appropriation is

made for that purpose, has been stricken out by the Senate Finance Commit'tee at the instance of Mr. Clark.' - ' General Howard has commenced the distribution of the 25,000 appropriated by Congress for the relief of destitute freedmen in the District of Columbia." A board has been established,, and the most . careful : measures taken to guard against impostors. The Paymaster General has issued a special order directing that the pay of about one hundred officers in the volunteer and regular service be stopped until they square up accounts with the Government. So much negligence has occurred In this respect that the Paymaster General is determined to, bring those derelict officers up with a round turn. $ Much excitement prevailed yesterday at the Stock Board In Philadelphia, over the failure of Work, McCouch & Co., bankers. Their failure has entailed a heavy loss to Stock speculators. They were great bears in Restonville Railroad shares, which they had forced up to $15, but which yesterday had declined to $8 per share. '

Getting up a Party under Difficulties. Our old friend, Garland D. Rose,

has for some time past been amusing

himself with the profitable employ

men' of getting up a Johnson party in

this State.

At first blush this would . appear a

work of supererogation, when we re

member that the last Confederate Democratic Convention held in this State, indorsed President Johnson all over. But Garland has no notion of going

int the Democratic ranks openly and alone, hence he has tssnpfl a fall for a

Staie Convention, to which none are to be admitted extent tlmse. wlm voted

for Lincoln and Johnson in 1S64. To this call a do ng list 'of name's was

attached, and everything seemed to

progress swimmingly. But all great

enterprises meet with backsets, and

this ease provesto.;be no exception

-No sooner had the call been published

and copied into the Democratic papers

generally, as a big thing, when letters

began to appear in the newspapers

from persons whose "namest had been

attached to the call, expressing their

.dissent to the use of their names for any s such purpose. Judge Test, of

Lafayette, was, the tfirst tOTepudiate the whole affair. He was followed by

S. O. Kirkpatrick, of the same eifv.

as follows: i A CAKH. Lafayette May 9th, 1806.

I se by this morning's Journal that my

name is attached to a call for a State Con

vention. It is not only unauthorized by me, but further, I gave a positive refusal, wheu Interrogated about it. . I am opposed

. This was followed next day by Hon.

Daniel Mace, of the same city, in a

card as follows:- iyft r -tfr CARD FROM DANIEL MACE, ESQ. ' Editors of the Lafayette Journal: .

- I see my name to a call for what is called

a Johnson Convention. I was not con

suited in the matter. There should be no

breaking up or dividing the Union party.

The President has his plan of reeonstrue

tion based upon a spirit of conciliation.

A majority of Congress insist upon a more'

rigid treatment. Both are honest and pa

triotic. Time, if necessary, will settle the matter, and we will get together as a great and happy people. Moderation and conciliation should be the motto of all Christian men. Let us adopt the teach ings of the New Testament toward our late enemies, and all will be well. Daniel Mace. May 10th, 18G6.4 , t , , . ' ' It appears our friend Garland took his cue from the. Louisvillei-editors, who have rare facilities for getthig up conventions, and quietly, put down names without consulting the owners. How many more of the signatures will be repudiated, we of course do not know, but we are of the opinion that the Metropolitan Theatre of Indianapolis will accommodate, comfortably, the entire Hose Convention. .

paper " Demo-Kraut" and undoubtedly thinks he made an exceedingly ingenuous allusion to the Geiman national dish the noble sauerkraut.

There seems to be a good deal of

Know-Nothingism left in ; this nice fellow, which, under all the -circumstances, entitles him to the particular confidence and the , energetic support of the German population of Evans-ville.

CHEAP GROCERIES!

Personal. It affordel us pleasure yesterday to greet an old friend and former associate, Col. C. K.. Drew, just returned from his plantation In the sunny South. He reports the prospect for cotton on his plantation as first-rate, and the people too busy with their crops to, worry themselves over the question of reconstruction.

Spirit of the German Press. V- From.tlie Demokrat, 12thCj; Vl . .The editor of the Courier says that

we have given notice to our friends

that we intend to 'sue him for damages on account of the abuse and slander preferred . by him against us. Nonsense!' It is notorious that 'the publishers of the Courier are not worth a single cent; and, as the old German proverb has it, where One has

nothing, his satanic majesty himself

can not ge t anything. Besides, allowance must be made for the ''failings of humau nature. It is not gi-en Mr. KiEROLPtobe anything else except mean.. To sue him 'for slander and abuse, would be pretty near the same thing as if the farmer , should bring into Court a skunk, for ; throwing its stinking fluid at him.

We print, this morning, a lengthy and spicy communication from Mr. P. Gfrxerer, publisher of, the Democrat, the organ of the German wing of the Democracy in ' this part of the State. Having copied the editorial of the Courier containing serious charges against Mr. Gfrcerer, justice to him j36manded, that we should afford him j this ' opportunity to "reply through'our columns. His communication indicates, we think, his ability to " keep up his end of the doubletree" without much difiiculty. "We also copy three or four paragraphs ' bearing on the samet subject, from

ma paper the Demokrat which a same level with the meanest loafer. German has kindly translated ,for us. .Instead ef Demokrat," he called our

The Courier computes the damages which it would have to pay us, in case of a lawsuit, iu Confederate , money. We suppose this i the only kind of money it has got. Perhaps Hon. Alvin Duvall, candidate of the late Kentucky rebels for Clerk of' the Court of Appeals, paid it in such moneyv for putting his name at the head of its columns! The antecedents of Mr J; Duvall who -is supported by the Courier, though ho is not the nominee of the regular Demoeraey of Kentucky, entitle its to conclude that he has not yet exhausted the Confederate treasury.

The worthy editor of the Courier, said a witty word yesterday, on account of which he probably has burst into a storm of laughter, but which will put him, in the eye of every decent man, on .the
