Simon Cameron, publishes & letter over his own “signature’ in t\_he Phiiﬁdgipbia. Evening Telegraph, ‘in’ thicw,ﬁgs&crw that ﬂr "+ Cameron ‘did not voluntsrily withdfaw from the cabinet of Presient Lincoln— The card is ruggested by the following passage in Scnator Wilson's article on Secretary Stanton in the Atlantie Monthly for February.:. “He (Mr. Cameron) pro- ~ posed to résign ‘shonld :some one be ap- - pointed not, unfriendly to his policy. He' suggested -the appointment of Mr. Stanton. The president aetéd upon hissug: . gestion, accepted his resignation and ten‘dered him the mission to Russia.” Col, .~ McClure says that Mr. Cameron was re‘moved from the war department by Mr, .~ Lincoln without!previous notice ; that he teceived a/letter telling him that Mr, - Stanton bhad been, or would be, nominated to succeed him, and that the president had” determined to ;t'\p'poiu't bim (Came.

Tndignation - with whicn it was received by Mr. Cameron. Thé letter concludes as follows: “The withdrawal of Mr. “ incoln'd letter, and the substitution of A (-brr_(espgmdénce, attending the removal, ‘was Buggested to Mr. Cameron in my * presence, and Mr. Lincoln’s gehcrf‘iﬁs dinpostion was discnssed and confidently relied upoii to make him consent to swh a « correspondence.” He was appealed “to on the subject, and agzrej; to: it vLettc'rs ~ were then prepared’ giing the dismissal of Mr. Cameron the u}ppear ice of a voluntary dnd cordial retiremdnt from the cabinet, and Senator Wilst:{ was doubt. less |misled thereby..

‘ ", Negro Equality. = »-7 Mr. Saulsbury recently presented a me- £ morial in the Senate of the United States; in which the following opinions of eminent statesmen ‘of all partics, Abraham Lincoln included, are given.on the question of megro equality : : . John-Adamssaid:- . 7 . ¢ I have never read reasoning more ab. surd, sophistry more gross than the subtle labours; ‘of Helvetius and Rosseau to de- ~ monstrate the natural equality of mankind, Thonias Jefferson said : * ’ Nothing is more certainly written in the book of l'utsu'than that these people (the negroes) are to be free, nor is it less certain that the two races equally free can not live under the same government. i i Daniel Webstersaide & ||- If any gentleman from the South shall propose a scheme, to becarried on by this (fovernment upon a large scale, for/ the trausportation of the colored people to any colony or any place in the world, I should be quite disposed to_incur almost any degree of expense to accomplish that object. o Ay i slenry Clay said o e - Of the utility of a total separation of two incongruous races of our population, pupposing it to be practical, none have ev er doubted ; the mode of accomplishing that desirable object has alome divided public opinion. i d ‘ Stephen A. Douglas said: b » I believe this Goyernment was' made by white -mea for thé benefit of white men: and. their posterity forever; and I am in favor of contiding citizenship to| white men of Earopean birth and-descént,' instead of conferring it upon negroes, and other inferior reces. L Abraham Lincoln said: e‘s : I am not and never have.beén in favor .of muking voters or jurors of negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with whites; and I willsay - further, in nddit»ion to this, that there is & physical differcnce-between the whi*e and black races, which, [ be: lieve, will forever forbid the two races living on terms’ of social and political cquality, e e £ el e ; Carpet-bag Swindle in Florida. + Information' is at. hand -of & gigantic - carpet-bag swindle by the Legislature of Florida, which had'enacted a law, signed by the Governor, giving to certain railroad companies in that State eight million dollars of gold-bearing State bonds, whicli is equivalent to ten million dollars currency ; <und, what is singular, a large proportion dre'to be issued to these compantes before a dollar is expended on any 10ad, ahd the State having no security for the building of the roads beyond the names of the officers of the companies.; The total taxable property of the State under the last ‘assessment was $25,000,000; with a population of only 140,000, and under ' carpet-bag ‘rule.it lias acquired a Siate debt of §11,000,000. This is a grand swindle by genume carpet-baggers, The despatches say that every-Democrat .in the Legislature voted agafr%st it. 1 eel 4 ioo | T‘ ] A VYoracions Beast.

Mr. Homer Aldrich, who has been visiting his relatives in Page county, fowa, relates that in the vicinity of Buchanan, in that county, a large, ferocious looking animal was committing great depredations among the farmers' stock, killing as many as twenty and thirty head of hogs and sheep'in one night, The animal also kill: ed two horses and three cows for & farmer living tiear Wild Cat Grove, in which place this strange beast made his hiding places Taken ajtogether the farmérs of Page county have had killed 250 head of stock. ' The animal was often seen, and is described as being of a-dark brindig col Jor, *vith 10ng; bushy tail and in size. between that of a panther and a California lion. Mr. Aldrich saw the track in the snow, which measured five inches across, Several parties hiave been in pur!suit. of the animal, but failed to capture him. At lasts accounts it had left the west fork of 102 river and wa supposed’ to be making its way to D:L.:kb‘fmmny; . Missouri, as Mr. Aldrich learned on his. return in that direetion, of several farm. ers having lost from twenty to forty hogs, and Sheep in asingle night.

Thle Supreme Court decision on the legzg tender question is the great subject of discussion in financial circles. The decision as understodd in Wall street is that the Llegnl tender act was justified by the war, but that Congress had no power to issue any more legal tender notes, and that all contracts made before 1862; are tof’LTe paidiin coin. . [f"this shape the decisipn is thought to be a very important ‘one, but its influence on values is . thus far | remarkably slight . The decision ma{ces some hundreds-of.millions of rail road bonds, ‘and an immense aggregate of state and city bonds, payable inicoin, both principal and interest of which, for eight years m&s been paid in greenbucks. The payment of interest and principle since 1862 bavidg been accepted by the credi torg, will not be affected by the decision, exdept where money has been accepted um?;' _protest, accompanied with a de mand tor gold, which cases are of course very exceptional. © It is perhaps not im probable that some of the poorer States, with heavy débts, such as North Carolina and Tennessee, being unable to provide ‘for their debts, even on a currency basis, mdy be drivén by this dictation into open repudiation, pleading the action: of the Supreme Court as imposing - on them obligations which théy could not honor,.— {‘lie price of gold advanced on the morn

i‘;F of the 6th, on private telegrams from lashington, to the effect that the decision would be in fivor of alk coin; but when the otker part of ' the decision was known, on Monday, the price of gold declined, from the fact that Congress, under toe decision, cannot issue any more legdl tenders, el < — | Great Britain. |The British Parliament was opened on the Bth instant, with the Queen’s;speech, which comments on the tranquillity prevailing in all quarters of the globe, and notices a growing disposition in-all countries to appeal to friendly meditation rather than resort to arms; it asserts the thvorable condition of the finances; sug rests a continuation 'of the inquiries into ahe Parliamentary elec‘ions, and announ es the probability that the government gvill propose . a land reform measure for reland, and will also introduce a bill to define the status of. citizens of -foreign countries who may desire naturalization. it‘ recommends. such- legislation on the übject of religious tests in the universities of Oxford and Cambridge as will increase the usefulness of those institutions.

'The Covington Postmaster. . | % [Fom the Lounisville Courier.) 4 ' The reappointment of old’ Jesse R. (Grant to be Postmaster ‘of Covington [for four years longer, is one of those little things which is not easy to ac‘count for. Old Jesse does not need 'the office, and the office does. not need (old Jesse. He is a weak, querulous-old 'man, incapable bgcauSe hes~weak. and ‘unpopular becduse he ‘is querulous. 'Aside from having no clajm upon' the post-office department, an,dl no capaeity -to be a'postmaster, he isthe father of the } President of the United States. There i 8 an.obvious impropriety, not undi- ! luted with a certain.absurdity, - in his holding a little village place of this ~sort. If heis not above it, as very likely he<s not, his offspring should be above it. Old Jesse is seventy years cof age, and an awful old" chatterbox ‘and tattler. He has a competency.— ‘Never.very wise, he has been growin in Glly over, since b don. began o grow in fortune. . Why should bhe be Postmaster of (ovington Hefmg%g to be pickeled and” preserved, and. “stowed awayiin one-of the glass casesat the White House, the Patent Office, or the Smithsonian Institute. - 4 - It now transpires that the late E. M.;‘ Stanton liad his life insured for $lO,OOO, and his"homeéstead is worth $60.000 to‘day wader the hammer. ¢ It does not appear, therefore, that he was so pov-erty-stricken, or that his family was left so destitute as has been represented. *_ A young girl of Bt.

5, ~ . The Colored Senator. Don Piatt, a radical newspaper correspondent, thus /photographs the colored Senator from Mississippi’s* * I saw this decided brunetie enter up., on the floor mwatéag‘&w& gratitying 'to mote the alacrity und zeal with which Massachusetts hastened toavow her principles and act with consistency. Summer and ~Wilson. shook the gentleman warmly, and the gnarled and knotted Drake stood up to participate in the demonstration.— Well, this is all right,’and I must not be supposed to object. The law governing in social equality is a law of each man’s own enacting. If I wish to shake a colored man’s hand, it is my right to go shake, and no man can gay me nay. If, onthe other hand; I dcline shaking, the colored man may be offended, bt he can not make me shake, nor can any other man or set of men. 80, if Messrs. Sumner, Wilson, Drake, and others, find the -new Senator agreeable, they have the right to embrace and associate with him.

A Perilous Voyage. An enterprising Missourian cut out a sheet of ice 250 feet long and 165 feet wide and ten /inches thick, and started to_ raft it, e masse, down the Migsiseippi to St. Louis, 109 miles distant. One end of the field was shar- | pened to scrve as bows, and the other end rounded for a stern. A skiff wasfastened to each side to give the requi- { site sheer when necessary, and a cook- | stove and- provisions were taken on | the ice. After a prosperous voyage of | twenty miles the concern unfortunate- I ly ran into an ice-bound point of land and broke into three pieces. Although it was dark at the timé, all the men and the cook-stove were saved, but the ice broke rapidly up and . disappeared in the darkuness. The projector of the scheme will try it again, and is confident that he can do better mext time. Carpet-bagger vs. Sambo. s i Gen. Ames, who will take a =eat as the colleague of the negro Revels from Missisgippi, is greatly mortified at the conjunction he is brought into. To have to allude to this negro as his colleague, is said to be exceedingly distasteful to the gentleman from Michigan, temporarily hailing from Mississippi. T'he people of Mississippi, however, think it is the negro who has a right to complain—the negro is the dishonored party. The Brandon (Miss.) Republican says it would not give Revels for a‘half a dozen such whiffets as Ames. Revels will be kept out of his seat if Ames can effect that purpose, simply because he doeés not want to be the colleague of a negro. Yet the | radical party is composed exclusively I of the friends ot the black man! The sensible colored men are praying earnestly to be saved from such friends. t i e Qe L ! A Present to Mark Twain, ! A “Palestine fox” raised in [llinois: was sent to Mark T'wain at Buffalo, as a New Year’s present. The giver says: “Twain, I'd give a hat to hear | you cuss that “Palestine fox” after | ‘you’ve had him twenty-four hours, but [ pledge you my word you can invent no blasphemous formula of maledic-* tion and objurgation applicable to him which I have not already used. Take him and be happy (if you can), and if you don’t like him—pass him along.” The Express says: “He .is going to cost, but if he swamps the Third National Bank that Fox shall be kept in provender until Mark comes home.”

“Mack” rebukes the base utilitarianism of certain squeamish radicals at Washington who have been heard, on the sly, to speak of Senator Revels as “that thousand dollar darkey.” “I confess)’” rays the correspondent, “to a disposition to look on him in a far more exalted light. I see in him a three-thousand-million darkey; I hear in his voice the thunders of Donelson, and Shiloh, and Vicksburg, and Gettysburg; and in his footsteps the read of mightier armies than Napoleon marshaled for the conquest of Europe. The election .of Revels is the full proceeds of all that war and bloodshed. He represents the assets and liabilities of a four years’ struggle; he is the glorious fruit of union and victory’ whereof we have heard go much.” i e , e D>~ CouNTERFEIT MoNEY/—The amount of counterfeit money in circulation throughout the country ; the nicety of its'execution and the facilities everywhere afforded to the/shovers, are absolutely startling. — It-is computed by persons who have investigatedl the mater that in some districts fully one-half the currency in oireulation is spurious. A bran new $1 and $2 bill 'was recently shown one of our reporters, which had been pronounced; genuine by the cashiers of five National Banks. Yet the foreman of one of our engraving companies, who is unquestionably, the ablest expert in this line in the country, insisted that the bills w:re counterfeits, and pointed out two or three inaccuracies in the engraving. The paper was perfect: If the foreman was right in his supposition, and we have mo reason to doubt it, these are certainly the best executed counterfeits ever produced in the United States; and it is difficult to produce any plan by which they can be detected by the mass of the pgople —N.
