Special to tie Associated Press: TIIE INTEREST IN STEPHENS PKCT.IXING. New York, May 17.—The interest created by Mr. Stephens’ visit to this city seems to be rapidly passing'away. This morning but few persons called on the Head Center at his par-
eharge and control of all matters connected with such warehouse and the property therein stored. The committee, after disposing of twentythree pages of the bill rose, when the Speaker presented a message of the President, transmitting a communication from the Secretary of War, and a letter from Lieutenant General Grant, relative to the necessitv for legislation on the subject of the army. The l.ieutenant General’? letter to the Secretary of War was read, after which the message and letters were referred to the Committee on Military Affairs and ordered to be printed. Mr. Thayer desired to instruct that commute to report back the the Senate bill but the House refused. At half past four o’clock the House ad-
journed.

The Strike Continues.
New York, May 17.—The strike of the ship carpenters, joiners and caulkers continues, and the employers say if it lasts much longer they will remove their business to other ports. The average amount received weekly as aid for the caulkers is from $1,500 to $2,000. The Washington specials say the House Committee on Banking has under consideration a bill to exempt from taxation all Government bonds in the national banks. The investigation concerning the complicity of Davis in the assassination plot proceeds
slowly.
Great excitement has been caused among the Fenians in Brooklyn at the discovery of a large defalcation by a prominent oftieer of the order. The name’of the defaulter is with-
held.
The Tribune's Florence, Italy, correspondent of April JO, opens his letter thus: *• Within a fortnight we shall be involved in war. The abandoned fortress of Cremona is being fortified in haste. The fleet is concentrated. All the soldiers on furlough are being recalled. All the official papers tire the Italian
heart.
*• Everybody is preparing for war, still they try te> shift the responsibility upon the Austrian armaments. In fact Napoleon is the

Th. principal business transacted is in reference to the past ami future tinances. Mr. Stephens has positively refused to give the press the tirianeial roport of the committee ajr pointed to examine the books of O’Mahouy and Killian. The books were all of an extraordinary character. Among the numerous items entered are receipts for large amounts of money, which appears to have been paid for sending spies to the Itoherts meetings.

The Journal publishes the elaborate opinion by Judge Bland Ballard, of the United States District Court, in relation to Jshnm Henderson, concluding that the executive anil legislative departments of the Government having declared that tiie rebellion is ended; the court can not assume that it continues that this opinion furnishes no solution of the political status of the inhabitants of the States lately in rebellion: that this is a question which must be answered elsewhere; that the court was bound to order the arrest of General Davis for the apparent contempt offered to the court; and Unit he, having resisted the order of arrest, ts criminally responsible, and that his ease will be presented to the grand jury.

One of the most interesting documents emanating from the Revenue Commission appointed by the .Secretary of the Treasury, is their special report upon distilled spirits as a source of national revenue. Setting out with the simple proposition that the policy of the Government should be to impose upon spirits the maximum tax which they will hear, without affording a stimulus to fraudulent attempts to evade the revenue, the report proceeds to cite the experience of other nations in this direction. It stiows that Great Britain, out of her annual revenue of $35o,()(K>,(m>0, derives $115,000,000, or nearly thirty-three per cent, of the whole, from the internal excise and cust toms duties upon spirituous and fermented liquors. Russia derives thirty-seven per cent,
of her revenues from Hie same source.
On the other hand, the United States, never having derived a dollar from a tax upon domestic, liquors in time of peace, raised only about $10,000,000 from this .•.oui' i* in the fiscal year IS05'. After making all due allowance for the wide suspension of manufacture upon the raising of the tax to two dollers per gallon, January 1, 1SG5, end considering also the fact that we collected $2'\000,000 of revenue from spirits in isot, during which year the tax was progressively twenty cents, sixty cents, and one dollar and lifty Vents per gallon, thus stimulating manufacture to the utmost in prospect of tin* great profits to follow upon the advance of the tax, it is still a fact that the revenue has been defrauded by Illicit distillation and sale. To the methods and the prevention of this the commission address
themselves at considerable length.
To put a stop to so demoralizing a system, the commission re commend to Congress, besides the reduction of the tax on whisky to one dollar per gallon, a stringent law prohibiting and confiscating all stills except of an extensive description; an absolute prohibition of distilling, under heavy penalties, by an unlicensed person; the imposition of a license fee of $50o on each distillery, and $250 on each rectifier of spirits; the assignment of one Government inspector to each and every distillery; the retaining ot alien upon the same un-
Mr. Fessenden expressed himself as opposed

Jeff. Davis’ Eaki.y Love Troitu.es.— Prairie du Chien, Wisconsin, the oldest town on the upper Mississippi, is noted for its sleepy beauty of location, its old fort, (Crawford. ) and for being the place from whence Jeff. Davis, when a lieutenant in the United States army, eloped witli the daughter of ex-Presi-dent Taylor, then a colonel in command of our forces at Fort Crawford. Here was Davis’ first secession exploit! He Joved the liandsome daughter of Colonel Taylor., That love was returned. Colonel Taylor would not consent to their marriage, so Lieutenant Davis seceded from Prairie du Chien and went for another union. By mesns of a rope ladder the girl let herself down from the upper window of the commandant’s house at the fort; in the darkness of the night they went to the edge of the river; a trusty Indian took the lovers iii his canoe, and off down the stream they went, and were married at St. Louis as soon as they could reach that point. Jetf. Davis’relics, including portions of his lieutenant’s uniform, are, with other curiosities, now preserved in a cabinet of curiosities at
LaCrosse, Wisconsin.
Vkuv Touching.—The following touching anecdote of a Georgia widow is related thus
by a certain Squire Dabbs:
“Oh!” saiil the squire. “ I wish I was mar-
ried and well off. I dread it powerful. I’d like to marry a widow. 1 alters liked widows since I know’d one down in Georgia that suited me adzactly. About a week after her husband died she started down to the grave yard, where they planted him, and she read the perseription on the monument. When she got there, she stood looking at the stones which was put at eaeli end of the grave, with an epithet on them that the minister had writ for her. Then slie burst out, ‘Oh! bo-o-o!’says she, ‘Jones was the best of men, I remember how the last time he come home, about a week ago, he brought down from town some sugar and a little tea. and some store goods for me, and lots of little necessaries, and a little painted boss for Jecms. winch that blessed little child cot his mouth all yaller with sucking of It, and then he kissed the children all round, and then took down that good old fiddle of

IIaw to Read. First of all, you must get in the habit of looking intensely at words, and assuring yourself of their meaniug, syllable by syllablenay, letter by letter. For though by reason of the opposition of letters in the function of signs, to sounds in tbe function of sounds.that the study of books is culled “literature,” and that a man versed in it is called, by tho consent of nations, a man of letters, instead ot a manof ’ -ooks or of words, you may yet connect v .a this accidental nomenclature this real principle—that you might read all the liooks in the British Museum (if you could live long enough) and remain an utterly illiterate, uneducated person; but that if you read ten pages of a good book, letter by letter, that is to say, with real accuracy—you are forevermore, iu some measure, an educated person. The entire difference between education and noneducation (as regards the merely intellectual part of it) consists in the accuracy. A well educated gentleman may not know many languages—may uot l>e able to speak any but his own—may have read very few book’s. But whatever language he knows, he knows precisely; whatever word he pronounces, he pronounces rightly; above all, he Is learned in the peerage of words; knows the words of true descent and ancient 1*1 ood at,, a glance from words of modern candle; remembers all their ancestry—their marriages, distantest relationships. and the extent to which they are admitted, and offices they held among tbe national noblesse of words at any time, in any country. But an uneducated person may know by memory any number of languages, and talk them all, and yet truly know not a word of any— not a word even of his own. ♦ at******* Now, in order to deal with words rightly, this is the habit you must form. Nearly every word iu your language has been first a word of some other language—of Saxon, German. French, Latin or Greek; (not to speak of Eastern and primitive dia'.ects.j And many words have been all these; that is to say, have been Greek first, Latin next, French or German next, and English last, undergoing a certain change of sense on the lips of each, but retaining a deep vital meaning, which ad good scholars feel in employing them, even at this day. If you do not know the Greek alphabet, learn it; younger old,girl or boy—whoever you may lx*, if you think of reading seriously, (which of course implies that you have some leisure at your cemmaud.) learn your Greek alphabet; then get good dictionaries of ad these languages, and whenever you are in doubt about a word hunt it down patiently. Mind, this does not imply knowing or trying to know Greek, or Latin, or French, It takes a whole life to learn any language perfectly. But you can easily ascertain the meanings through which the English word has passed; and those which in a good w riter’s w ork it must still bear.

Endeavor, if possible, to keep a clear conscience, and two or three clean shirts. Rise with the lark, but avoid larks in the evening.

Caricatures of Good Breeding.—Some young people do not sufficiently understand the advantages of natural charms, and how much they would gain by trusting t,> them entirely. Tney weaken these gifts of Heaven, so rare am) fragile, by afl'ected manners and an awkward imitation. Their tones and their gait are borrowed; they study their attitudes before the glass until they have lost all trace of natural manner, and. with all their pains, they please but littli^—J,a Bruyere. A gentleman was describing to Douglas Jerrold the story of his courtship and marriage—how his wife had l>een brought up in a convent and was upon the point of taking the veil, when his presence burst upon her enraptured vision, and she accepted him a< her husband. Jerrold listened to the end of the story, and then quietly remarked: “Ah, she evidently thought yim !>etter than a nun.”
Paralysis, which has been coosiJered by other Ms netic Physicians as Incurable, can he cured where euBalances are favorable, but requires longer time. Consumption, in its incipient stage,, also yields to this system. It is proper here to remark that many persons who have a cough have not the Consumption of the Lungs, although they may have had treatment for such a

General Drop-y also yields to this system, hat also re-

Because some persons are cured by a few treatments it does not fslllow that all can be so quickly healed. The Doctor wishes it disUuctly understood that it is not his efforta alone that effects cures.

The people of Syraeuse. New York, seem to be tired ot this life. On Wednesday last a respe, table lady, named May, committed suicide in that city by taking poison. Domestic difficulty was tho cause.

upon grinders of coffee or spices.
At the close of the portion of the bitl imposing a special tax. the following provision was added: Provided, that payment of any tax in this act. levied or provided, shall not be held or construed to exempt any person from carrying on any trade or profession herein specified, from any penalty or punishment provided by the laws of any State, or carrying on such trade, business or profession within such State or In any manner to authorize the commencement or continuation of such trade or profession, contrary to the laws of such State, or In places prohibited by municipal law, nor shall the payment of any tax be held or construed to prohibit or prevent any State from palcing a duty or tax for State or other purposes, or any trade, business or profession

On motion the parugraphsamending section ninety of the present law was amended by adding the following: In any port of entry within which is embraced more than one collection district, the Secretary of tbe Treasury is hereby authorized to put all the bonded warehouses in such port nnder the charge of One collector of internal revenue, and the collector so designated shall have the entire
Russian officer bring in at times during the evening all the flowers that he could carry and shower them upon an actress. The next day he sent presents to the amount of $1,000. This gentleman, when his floral otterings had given out, and no more could be obtained, finished his gifts by scaling his cap at her. This was the signal for a scene to commence, and instantly liats of beaver, silk and velvet were showered upon the stage, and rings, gloves, handkerchiefs, canes and umbrellas. Every one seemed to be trying,to outvie his neighbor in shouting bravo and viva; the din was terrific. One man in the gallery, in his excitcmenf^eized a large glass from the chandelier, and hurled it toward the stage, but missed bis mark and shattered it upon your corresponilent's shoulder. At this point he thought it time to leave, which he did, and, with the fear of glass globes and a lame arm for months, has not patronized the Alcazar

“It is a painful thing," said Joins.” who had l>een deceived,“to have pretended friends, and to find them out.” “ Yes,” said Brown. “ but that can happen seldom. Tin* plague of tifi* is that you are always liable to find them at home." An improvement has been made in the carriages employed to convey the immense blocks of cut stone used in the new buildings in 1’aris. Eor the elumsy two w heeled dray is substituted a carriage on four wheels made ol wrought iron. The editor of a new paper in Nebraska begins his introductory artiele with the following sentence: “The object in view in the establishment of this paper is the procuring of means with w hich to buy bread and butter and good clothes.” The latest fashionable collar for gents has turn down corners, on w hich appear dogs’ and horses’ heads. The figures are repeated on the wristbands. The shirt itself is spotted over with small horse shoes, or with the heads of dogs and horses. One of the popular song writers of the day celebrated the everlasting maternal topic under the caption of “This hand never struck me, mother! ” So much the worse for him; if he had been properly spanked in his youth, he would never have perpetrated such stufl’in his adolescence. A young man in Newport, Vermont, wanted a wife badly and took a young lady out to ride. After proceeding a few miles, he asked her, “ Will you marry me?’’ The answer, as short as it was sweet, “ No sir! ” Young gent says: “ Well,get out and go home afoot then.” The young lady accepted his advice and reached home in safety. A white man in St. Louis became enraged at a negro, the other day, and wasabout to strike him with a brickbat, when the colored man fell back on reserved rights: “ Look here, white marf, don’t yon do it, sar. I’d have you know dat whenever you strikes me you strikes a bureau! ” A New York pilot, Thursday, found two boys, aged ten and eight years, adrift, passing through Hell Gate ou a raft of pine hoards. They stated that they had been fishing and had lost their boat while temporarily ashore, and had made tho raft to get home with. They were young vagrants from Randall’s Island and made good their escape. The English residents of Santiago had confirmed the resolutions of those of Valparaiso against The conduct ot the British Charge and Admiral in not preventing the bombardment of Valparaiso, and consequent destruction of their property. The French residents had put in a claim for the amount of loss they had sustained. The estimate of the value of property destroyed in Valparaiso is given, placing the amount at about ten and a half millions of dollars, but this is thought to be much below the mark. ^ Lkad Mines in Scott.—Joseph H.

Leah Wadkins sold five acres tor $5,000. and partially sold the remainder of his 250 acres for $300 per acre. Over 400 hands will be at work on farms near mine next week.

Quite Conscientious.—“ What do you know of the defendant, Mr. Thompson f Do you consider him a good musician?” On that point 1 wish to swear with great care. I do not wish to insinuate that Mr. Van Slopes is not a good musician. Not at all. But I could not help observing (people will observe queer things at times) that after he commenced piaying on tbe clarionet, a saw filer, who lived next door, left home, and has never since been heard of.” “ Well, that will do, you may go down, Mr. Thompson. Crier, call the next witness before the court.”
!M(ill in “Dead” LangiAges.—The following inscription was deciphered by a clerk in the “ dead letter” department of the postoffice, recently; “ Mrs. Jane Henry, Youda Ca nidi Co., 6 post.” What could it mean ? A elerk arrived at the conclusion that it was a freedman’s letter, to be sent as follows: “ Mrs. Jane Henry, Utica, Oneida county, No. C Post street. New York.” It was sent accordingly, and duly received by the table Mrs. Henry.
The letter of O’Mahony to Stephens, resigning the presidency of the Irish republic, is couched in terms of extraordinary meekness and child like frankness. The letter, not less than^the whole career of O’Mahony, bears testimony of utter imbecility and incompeteney, and Stephens does not hesitate to so inform the fallen chief. A convalescent soldier in a hospital in Paris, while stretching himself exclaimed: “Oh God!” A young and very pretty Sister of Charity ran up and enquired: “What would you God should do to you? I am his daughter.” The convalescent replied: “ Accept me for his son in law.”
