VBE CHARCBS OF TMK PIOMBBK AGAINST THE STATE PBIMTBB.

The fionetr ot yeeterday led a forlorn trf)pe— a« they say in military matterfr—by gr*Te charges of fraud and swindling aJ- ivged ^> hitve been discovered in the ac- coontp rendered by VVm. R. Marshall for State Printing. The forlorn hope of the Picmeer was to prevent oar election as loci- dental Printer to the two hoaees of the l^- Islaiure, It signally failed of its object, aa the proceedings of the legialAture. else- where, show.

We will reply 10 the Pioneer's cU»ir^ in the order in which they are made.

First, it is alleged that the volume of Lawi published oy U9, of which there were 5,000 copies, required only 145 83-100 reams of paper, when we bad charged for 162 ntaan, making a difierence of about 16 reams, or ten per cent., unaccounted for. Now, without going into any elaborate anal- yiis of the bill, we might rest a defense on an allowance for general waste and loss of ten per cent, on the paper— this we are informed is the establi^ied allowanoe. it ia .nsoal to reject the outside quires in every biudle. Aod of those put to press a large allowanoe has to be made for imper> feet impressions, spoiled sheets, and imper- fections of one kind aod another. In this way, all the difierence that can be shown to exist is fully accounted for. But Mr. Goodrich's estimate is altogether unfair and ioaccarate, as we shall show.

The printer intorms us that for 5,000 copies, 56 quires were worked for each form. This was making an allowance of aboat six per cent for lo^ in the pre«work and bind> ing By the signatures— the numbers at the bottom of every eighth page — it will be seen that there were 57 forms. Two of these, however, were imperfect — one at the beginning and one at the end of the book. Calling these two fractions equal to one, the forms number 56, which multiplied by the liumber of quires — 56 to each form — gives us a total of 31,136 quires. There being 20 quires in a ream, this makes the number of reams 156, and 16 quires over, nearly 167 reams. This is only &vc reams less than our bill called for, or three per cent.

The next count in Mr. Goodrich's indict- ment, is the item of $250— for indexing

the laws. Although this appears in our bill, as the

proper place for its payment , we really had

nothing to do with it, further than to coU

iect and pay it over under the direction of

the Secretary of State who is required by

law to have the indexing done.

But nothing could have been more un- fortunate for this " honest lago," than his attempt to criminate Secretary Baker, or any one else iu this item of $250, for the " aide-notes, indexes," &c. When it became ueceesary to furnish the sectional headings, side-notes and index for the laws, Secretary Baker carefully examined the law and the usage which had controlled the Secretary's Department in this matter. He found that this same Goodrich had been allowed an enormous sum, (enormous for the work done) every year that he printed the laws, for this work. In 1857, the State Printer, (Goodrich) was paid the lum of $300 for ftirnisbing said index, &c., to the volume of taws lor that year ; said index being not quite three pagea in length. He found fur- tbcr, that the State Printer in 1858, (this same delectable Goodrich) was allowed the •am of $450, for indexing &c., the laws of that year. Secretary Baker saw the ne- cessity of immediate retrenchment and re- form in this anwarrantable extravagance.

Finding that both the law, and usage l^verning the department authorized him to designate a person to do this work, be select- ed Wm. F. Wheeler, a man particularly experienced in this kind of business. The Secretary contracted with him to furnish the sectional headings, side-notes and index, for both the General and Special laws of 1861, for the sum of $250, in Stata War- rants, the same being estimated to be jiut one half the sum demanded by, and paid to Earle S. Goodrich for the same work in 1858!! Mt Wheeler did the work and did it better than any similar job was ever done before in this State, honestly earning every dollar ; and he alone received the pay. He is a good Democrat, and is now at Fort Soelliog, a soldier ready to do battle for his oonotry. He can speak for himself.

The Secretary acted strictly in accord- ance with the law, and usage io this affair ; aod carried out to the letter the doctrines of retrenchment and reform, which the people had demanded of their pablic wrraots in the campalgb of 1859.

The next item is the press work. Mr. , . ,^ , ^. Gooirid^ thfck. we are goUty of petty lar- ! ''"S" ^^^ Je'^r^ .'.".^ ."ir-iLm^Oo

ceny in having charged for 1,197 tokens, when the book— according to the number of pag«>s makes 1,176. Mr Goodrich very well knows that each fraction of a token. oountA as one token ; 240 impreMiong mak« a token, thu.4 in each form of oight pagm repeated 5,000 timet for that No. ot volumes of the book tberv .^re 20 tokens and a fraction over, ur according to rule. 21 tokeus. The book baa 57 forms— two that are tractions — which multiplied hy the 21 tokens to u (ordi, give 1,197 tokens that we charged. It will be seen by examining the book that the index in the forepart, which was the last priotad, contains a form and a half; and that the 57th (orm— the 'ast— is a fractional one. In this way perfectly acoa- rate aud junt, the $12.60 petty larceny is disponed of.

But apparently tht^ uuMt serious charge of all, i^ that with the aaaistauco of an ex- pert, Mr. Qoodrk:h examined a printing bill filed Feb. I6U1, 1861. aud tbenin di^. covered great frauds, amoantiog in the ag- gn^te ro ^63,17. Yesterday we went to the Auditor'M office, aooompanted with an expert — a roan well kn«)wu and honored aod trusted in hiitl profe«i<L>ii— Mi. Miller, aud made a thorough and careful examine tion ot the bill referred to by Mr. Goodrich, with the following result, «m certified to by Mr. Miller:

MR MILLXU'S CBRTiriCATC.

St. Pjlvl, January 7, 1862. 1 hereby certify that I have this day care- fully examined a bill filed ia the SUte An. ditor'fl office ou the 16th of February last, by Wm. B. Mariball. SUte Printer— it being the same bill referred to by the Pioneer of this morning— and that I have examined the separ- ate items of aaid bill, comparing them with original copies of the printing charged therein; that I hare measured said work and find said bill entirely correct.

I further certify that I have measured all the work, done by Mr. Maahall for the Sute Legislature, that comes under the head of bill work, pamphlets, and documents, also, the Tolumo of lawa, and that aaid measurement and the bills rendered therefrom were correct, a^d that I have had no interest whaterer in said bills or printing .

0. U. MILLER. There was one legislative bill— No. 20. Senate file — which appeared to have but 16 pages ; while in the accooot rendered, it was charged as 34 pages. Mr. Miller rec- ollected didtioclly that it was 34 pages ; it being an election law, with numerous formH, all of which were wanting io the copy 00 file; evidently the 18 pages had been detacb* ed and lost in some way.

In our examination of bills in the Au- ditor's office we found one thing, and bat one thing, that was not susceptible of an entirely satisfactory explanation. We refer to a bill dated the 27th of last April, tor 32 reams of paper for printing the Journals of the Senate and House. It is evident that this quantity of paper was not used on the Journals. The facts in regard to thi* item ~to which Mr. Goodrich has not yet al- luded, but of which we will give him the full benefit— are as follows : The Journals were not printed in St. Paul. The person who printed them made an estimate for the paper before the copy was placed in bis hands. The paper was ordered— 32 reams — and paid for in the above bill. When the final bill for the Journals was rendered, the party who did the printing neglected to adjust the paper account, and to make the proper deduction for what was not need. He has been communicated vrith, and will be heard from in a few days. The work was not done by the State Printer, nor did he receive any of the pay — either for the work or paper. These fiicts can be substantiated, and name and lo- cality given, when it shall be necessary. Ot course the State printer 'n responsible to the State for what is done under bis ap> pointment and will not evade snob respon- sibility ; but the facta stated, will fully ex- culpate him from any personal culpability in this matter, if any wrong shoald be shown to exist.

Now having, as we conceive, shown to the public satisfaction that oor charges are entirely unimpeachable in point of regulari- ty, fairne8.s and justice— except this last above, ot which we expect, in doe time, a full and satisfactory explanation from the party immediately responsible — let ns now bring Mr. Earle S Goodrich tn trial 00 the points which he has raised.

The public have heretofore allowed them- selves to rest with the mere popular and palpable inference drawn from the nature of the case — that the immense maises of money which this man has drawn from the Treasury as State printer— so hugely dis- proportionate to the work performed — were acquired by fraud and peculation. Satisfied that an effectual and final stop was put to his career of plunder— they swallowed their indignation and paid their taxes as best they might, while he htm quietly and smiling- ly pocketed his ill-gotten gains, and made merry at their expense. We cculd not, nor do we wish, to add anything to the deep- seated conviction already entertained of his dishonesty. We propose only to show that the popular conviction does him no injustice and to prove him the scoundrel the certainty of which has heretofore been taken tor granted.

We have time or space now for only a few illuRtratioos, which we shall follow np from day to day through his whole career. The first bill which we draw at random firom the files at the office of the State Au- ditor, ia very apposite to the case io band, because it enables us tu compare Mr. Good- ich's charges for public printing with our ates, whose fairnesi be has presamed to call into question. This bill is dftted Oct 23d, 1858, and is for the publication of the Laws of 1858. It consists of five items, one of which H as follows :

Now let us try this part by GtMtdriofa'a method of eoaiMiatfon : 32 pagw make a sheet, 4711 will tbenibre make 14^ sbeeU. In SiXKi copie« then, there will be be 44,000 •heeu. Divide thi^ now, by 4>M) the number of sheets io a reMQ azxl we find the whole number of reams coua;imed in the work in queatk>n to have been but 93 18100. Yet, aark, you, the pura and virtaoua Earle chsr|ed the State for 187 ^ or more than twice the amount of paper actually consumed according to his own oomputation.

Let us put thase fiacu side by side tfiaia :

Amoant chaiwed by Oeodrioh, ll7>i reams at |C. «1.1I6.00

Showing a clear awindle by bis own coDfeeaioD in this one item of $ 671,M

Bat we will try him now upou the »ame cosnt not by the rule iofentsd to suit a purpose of temporary conreoiaDoe, but by roles universal with the craft every* where By these rules he had a cooeedad v^i to charfe the State with two par cent, of every ream used, to cover deflcieo- ci«M< and waate, which would maka the amount of paper legitimately chargeable to the Stats in this transaction 102.42 reams.

The legitimate charge would have been, 102.8 5 reama, at $S 414.68

Showing a clear fraud in tkie on* traa»<ution by tktpriMten' ruU of tMoiurtnwU, of. $ 610.58

Again, we find iu the sane bill already cited the toUowiog item— 780 tokena, at 91 | 780

Mr. Goodrich is fortnoate enough to have a press capable of working oX 16 pafss at one impressioo. To print 472 pages on bis press would require 29)^' impreasioos. Mal> tipiy this by the whole nomber of copies printed, 3,000, and the wboie number of impresHiona taken on his preen was therefoie 88,500. There are 240 impreasioos in a token — coosequenUy the whole oumber of tokens actually woriced ofl on hia prws amount to bat 368^. Bat be hsa cfaargad the State for 780, or for more than twice the work actually performed. Bat we will give Mr. Goodrich the benefit of the coove- nient fiction that hw press is capable of working ofi a form of only 8 pages at ooe impreseioo. In that case the nomber of to^ keos wouk) be doabled. or 737)^. Bot be has charged for 780 tokens, or for 42 >t to- kens more than be printed aooordiag to his own method of oomputation. Bot here again we give him the beaefit of the typo, graphical rale, that a fraction of a token counts for a full token, which would make the wboie number of tokeoe 750.

Giving him the benefit of fictioo in bis case which makes one token count two, aod the roles of measurement in case of firao- tions — there remains a swindle ot 30 tokens which cannot be disguised in any fiction whatsoever. Recollect too, that this press work fraud was perpetrated wbeo he was receiving the extravagant rate of $1 per token while the price now paid is but 63 cents.

These are only two items of one bill whose damning evidences of rascality are not half exhausted — and this is but one bill taken at random from among a bage pile of similar enormities.

Now that we have got our hand in — thanks to Mr. Goodrich 's intended challenge — we propose to continue firom time to time oar illastratioos of bis transactions as State printer till we tiball have placed upon record his whole financial history in that capacity. We shall show that that history was a piece ot bold, high handed and methodical vil- lainy throagbout — and besides satisfy iug the public curiosity with an insight into the de- tails of the gigantic robberies which now press so heavily on the tax-payers of Minno. sota, we shall be able, when we hare sosi- mod up the resnlts of our inquiries, to show abundant caase why he should be compelled by process of law, to disgorge his ill-gotten gains.

Wbovisdat Jan. 8th 1861.

The weather during the past week has been variable. We have bad two or three snow stomu, the reralt of which is, good sleighing. We note, within a day or two, coQsiderable quantities of Pork and Wheat coniiug io.

Many of our Carmere boweva-, prefer packing their pork to K-lliog at present pri- ces.

We not 4 a ^ight advance io wheat, 52 cents per bushel being freely paid for No. 1 .

Pork has advanced to 2.60 since our iMt report, and is firm, for hogs weighing 200 and over.

A farther advance has taken place in tea aod cofiee. Tea, which retailed in oor mar- ket two months »go at $1. now sells at 126 <gt 150 per pound. Cnffee is quoted in Milwaukee at 24 cents, by the bag, and is really selling lower ai retail in St. Paul than in that city. The late tarifi* bill and advance in insurance have caused this rise.

LOCAL AFFAIKS.

"Thk Noble Eabl«."— Oar distinguished friend, tbe "ground and lofty tumbler" of tbe Pioneer, yesterday morning seated himself in the lobby of the Senate, with airs much reminding one of tbe style io which the senior member of the firm of Mason and Slidell was formerly wont to seat bioiself in tbe corresponding branch of the National Legislature. He came in to see the tre-men-du-ou8 effect of bis onslaught upon Mr. Marshall of the Passs Company. When Mr. Marshall received tweoty votes, (those of rU the Senators present) for inci- dental pi inter, bis lordship wrapped the folds of hi<ii toga about him and departed in disgust at the Republican aod Democratic wisdom of that iM-aocb of tbe Legislature.

Rev. a. 8. Poke.— The choice of this gentleman as Chaplain of the Senate is in no wise considered a looal triumph by his oeigbbors of St Paul. His fearless and oat- spoken utterances from the pulpit denunci- atory of that great crime against God and m which ha? plunged our nation into civil war, long since gave him a State repn- tatioo. And when bis name was put fo^ in the caucus on Monday night, there wss more than one Senator who threw his bal- lot io tbe right direction, knowing that by doing so be was not only awarding justice to a true Christian gentlemen, but also sd- ministering a rebuke to that pro-slavery jouroal of oor city, the Pioneer, which nev- er lets a convenient opportunity slip with- out abusing Mr. F. for the utterance of sen- timents alike creditable to his own heart and the age in which he lives. He has never preached a seroKm wherein he chose to ponotore the rotten aod rebeUioas careasa of the *'divine institotioo,*'witboat the next day receiving upon his head tbe outpourings of tbe Pioneer' f vials of pro-slavery wrath. Beooe we, in connection with all haters of slavery in the State, rejoice at Mr. Fifke's electioo as Chaplain of the Senate.

In coonectioo with rumors repreaeotiog leakage of news from Washington to rebels, it is said tiiat the daughter of a high official is one of the guilty pa -ties. It was under- stood from movcmentfi of the rebels that they were aware of tbe de8<tioation of Bumside's expeditmo. The storj goes that it was talked of in tbe family of tbe officer alluded to, and this the daag^ter commonicated to her lover who is with the rebels.

Albakt, Jan. 2.

The following is a digest of the annual message of the Governor of New York, to the L%islature :

After reviewing briefly the present con- dition of the country he says : Our State credit, the index of an abiding faith in the Government, never stood higher than now, aod the finances, although drawn on heavily for the war, are in a i^ery satisfactory con- dition. Forty per cent, of tbe sdvanccs made by the State have oeen returned from the Federal Treasury. _ The Governor reccmmenda such legisla- tion on capital punisliment as will impose tbe death penalty only in tbe first degree of murder.

He recommends th&t works on military tactics be introduced into all State Colleges, aod academies, and that drill be maik a part of the exercises.

Tbe banking bosinei^ of tbe State is re- ported to be in a sontid and healthful con- dition.

Emigrants arriving at New York have fallen oS 35 per cent, from last year, and are less than any year since the organiza- tion of the Board of Commissions of Emi- gration.

The Governor recommends that tbe New York proportion of the federal tax, 820,- 000,000, be assumed at once by tbe State, and proposss a mode f jr its liquidation.

The condition of th) militia is alluded to and legislatron recommended that will con- form with the laws cf Congress, and im- prove tbe efficiency of tbe discipline of the State militia.

The Governor then enters on a review of the political troubles of the Country and tbe action of the State of New York. The aggregate number ol men raised for the war in the State has been 120,578 ; tbe number now io tbe field, deducting tbe killed, woanded, priainers and discharged, is 89,034. There are now in the State, in addition, mustered in 10 tbe United States service, 14,500 men. The New York troops are scattered over nine States, and in forty-* three different brigadis, under twelve Gen- erals of division. Tb»7 have taken part in every engagement dc ring the war, east of the AlleebanieB, and iioatb of Wasbiogtoa

Tbe Governor allud(s to tbe state of har- bor defences, aod calls for prompt and effect- ive measures in legislation, aod for an imme« diate effort to obtain suitable appropriations from Congress to provide for defences of the coast aod that imoiediate preliminary surveys be taken at once to asoertsin what defenses are neceS'>ary. He recommends that the State procee<l at once with works, looking to the Geofral Government for reimbursement. New York's interest io preserving peace with foreign nations is enlarged upon and war with England dep- recated as fraught w ith nntold disasters. No mere pretext 01 caprice of court or cabinet, no cause whatever anlesa it in- volved Natkmal dignity, if we are denied the positive right, could justify represen- tatives of the State consenting to a war with any foreign power, especially at the period when extraordinary snppUes of men and money have been and will be drawn from us to overwhelm insurgents at home. The message concludes with the patriotic decUration uiat New 'ifork will cast every- thing into tbe balance to preserve the dignity aod stability cf the Government — ■ ■■

He believed that vras ft fair statement of tbe position oi his col- league and now he would have held on to Messra. Mason and Slidell b order that it might result in war with Great Britain for tke benefit of tbe rebels.

Mr. Thomas of Massachusetts said tbe question involved points of Isw aod some nicety. It was too much to assume that this country could take another war into its bands and we most therefore wait We are not called oo to say that tbe de- mand of England was manly and just. It was unaianly and nojost. He denied that in captaring Mason and Slidell an insnlt to tbe British flag, in violation of ioteroatiooal law, was intended, and aigoed . that we had a right to do what was dooe on that occasion.

i'HE CHABOKSOFTHK PIONBEH AGAINST THE STATE PRINTKK.

The Fiorief ot vr^.-^tf^rday ieil n forlorn f.npe— a.s ihrfy -ay in uiilltary matters — by grj»ve charge* of iruud and swindling al- l.ged to have brCD discovered in the uc- countf rendered by Wm. R. Marshall for State Priniinvr. The iorloro hopt- »i liie Pioneer wa? lo prevent jur election as Inci- dental Printt r to the two housa* of the leg- ula'.ure. It Hignaily failed ot its object, iu the proce*?dinK'' of thf lesfislature, else- « r.ere, show .

We will reply lo the Pioiieer^s cuar-;*^ in the order in which they are made.

first, !t is alleged that the voluuie ot La*8 published oy wi, of which there were 5 000 copies, required only 145 83-100 reams of paper, when we hud charged for l02 r«kms. making a ditterenct; of about K> teanis. or ten per cent., unaccounted tur. Njw, without ^'oing into any elaborate anal- ysis of tlie bill, we might rest a defense on an allowance for general waste and lo»w of ten per c«nt. on the paper— this we are informed is the established allowance. it n .usual lo reject the outside quire.s in bvery bundle. And of those put to press a lariie allowance has to be made fo'' linper- feet impressions, spoiled .sheets, and imper- fections of one kind und another in this way. all the diflorence that can bt shown to exist is tuUy accounted for. But Mr. Goodrich's estimate is altogether unfair aad inaccarate, as we shall show.

The printer informs as that for 5,000 wipics, 56 quires were worked for each form. This was makicg an allownnce of about six p*;r cent for lo^'* in the pre*swork and bind- ing; By the signatures — the numbers at tho tx)ttom of every eighth page— it will be seen that there were 57 forms. Two of these, however, were imperfect — one at the oeginning and one at the end of the book. ' 'filling these two fr;ictions equal to one, the iorms number .')*>, which multiplied by the ;iumber of quires;— 56 to each form — gives 03 a total of 31,136 quires. There being 20 quires in a ream, this makea the number of reams 156, and 10 (juires over, nearly 15". reams. This is only five reams less thao oar bill called for. or three per cent.

Tlie next count in Mr. Qoodrich's indict

ment, is the item of 8250— for indexing

the laws.

Although this appears in our bill, as the

proper place for its payment , we really had

nothing to do with it, farther than to coU

•eca and pay it over under the direction of

the Secretary of State who w reqnire<l by

law to have the indexiog done.

Bat nothing could Lave been raorei un- fortunate for this *• honest lago," thau bis attempt to criminate Secretary Baker, or any one elm.', iu this item of 8250, for the •• side-notes, indexes," ic. When it became oecewiary to furnish the sectional headings, side-notes and index for the laws, Secretary Badier carefully examined the law and the u.eage which had controlled the Secretary's Department iu this matter. He found that this t>amc Goodrich had been allowed an eoormoua sum, (enormous for the work done) every year that he printed the laws, for this work. In 185", the State Printer, (Goodrichj was paid the gum of 8300 for furnishing said index, &c., to the volume of laws lor that year ; said index being not quite three pages in length, lie found fur- ther, that the State Printer in 1858, (this «ame delectable Goodrich) was allowed the 8um of 8450, tor indexing &c., the laws of that year. Secretary Baker aaw the ne- cessity of immediate retrenchment and re- form in this unwarrantable extravagance.

Finding that both the law. and usage {governing the department authorized him to designate a person to do this work, he .select- ed VVm. F. Wheeler, a man particularly experienced in this kind of busiuess. The Secretary contracted with him to ftiroish the sectional headings, side-notes and index, fer both the General and Special laws of 1861, for the sura of o250, in State War- rants, the same i>ting estimated to be jtut one half the sutn demanded by, and paid to

ceny in having .-barged for 1.197 tokenM, when the book— according to (he numtMT ot pai^t-* inukes 1.176. Mr tiocxlricb very well know* that ouch fmctiori >-l a token, tMUDtri as one token ; 240 imprpHsions luakr .• token, thus in cjieh form ot light page.'* n-peaii^d 5,0t)0 times for that No. of volames o! ihe book there .iu- 20 tokens and a fractiou over, or according to rule. 21 tokeus. The book bus 57 forms— two that arc fractiour* — which multiplied l>y the 21 token.-! 10 a form, give 1,197 tokens that we chartred. It will be t»peu by examlnint; the book that the index in the forepart, which was the last printed, eootains a form and a half; and that the57lli t'-rra — the ist — b a fractional one. In this way perfectly aeon - rate aud ju.<»t, the i512.60 [letty larceny U disposed of.

But apparently tlir moat strioun charge of all, is that with the a«si.staue« of an ex- port. Mr Goodrich examined a printing bill Qled Feb. 16th, 1861. and iherein dis- covered grc4t frauds, araonntiug in the ag- gregate to 5363,17. yesterday we went to the Auditor's office, ac'.finipanied with an experl — a man well known and honored and trust«d in his] proiedbiuti— Mi. Miller, and made a thorough and careful examina tion o! the bill referred to iiy Mr. Goodrich, with ttie f<illowiuK result, «.<. certified to by Mr. Miller:

Hrt MILLKKS CKRTIFICATE.

.St. Paul, January 7. 186^.

i hereby certify that I have this day care- fully examined a bill flled la the Sute Au. diior's office on the 16th of February last, by Wm. R. Marshall. State Printer— it being the sam^ bill referred to by the IKonetr of this mornin;;— aad that I have examined the separ- ate items of said bill, comparing them with original copies of the printing charged therein; that I have measured said work aad tiod eaid bill entirely correct.

I further certify that I have measured all the work, done by Mr. Mashall for the State Legislature, ihat comes under the head of bill work, pamphlets, and documenta, also, the volumo of laws, and that said measurement and tho bills rendered therefrom were correct, and that I have had no interest whatever in said bills or priatiug.

0. O. MILLEK.

There was on'? leginlativp bill— No. 20. Senate file — which appeared lo have but 16 pages: while in the acconnt rendered, it was charged as 34 pages. Mr. Miller rec- ollecte<J distinctly that it was 34 pages ; it being an election law. with numerous forms, all 01 which were wanting in the copy on file; evidently the 18 pages had been detach- ed and lost in some way.

In our examination of bill^ in the Au- ditor's oEQce we found one thing, and but one thing, that was not susceptible of an entirely satisfactory explanation. We refer to a bill dated the 27th of last April, tor 32 reams of paper for pruitiog the JournalH of the Senate and Hon«f\ It is evident that this quantity of paper was not used on the Journals. The facts in regard to thi* item — to which Mr, Goodrich has not yet al- luded, but of which we will give him the full benefit— are a^ follows : The Journals were not printed in St. Paul The person who priuU-tl them made au estimate for the paper before the copy was placed in his hands. The paper was ordered — 32 reams — and paid for in the above bill. When the Goal bill for the Journals was rendered, the party who did the printing neglected to adjust the paper account, and to make the proper deduction for what was not used. He has been communicated with, and will be heard from in a few days. The work was not done by the State Printer, nor did ho receive any of the pay — either for tho work or pai»er. These {&c\a can be substantiated, and name and lo- cality given, when It shall be necessary. Of course the .State printer ii responsible to the State for what is done under his ap- pointment and will not evade such respon- sibility ; but the facta stated, will fully ex- culpate him from any personal culpability in thi.^ matter, if auy wrong should be shown to exi«t.

Now having, as we conceive, shown to the public .^ati.ifaction that our charges are entirely uuunpeachable in point of regulari- ty, fairness anri justice— except this last above, ot which we expect, in doe time, a full and ^satisfactory explanation from the party immed lately responsible — let us now brint; Mr. Karle S Goodrich to trial on the points which he has raised.

The public have heretofore allowed them- selves to rest with the mere popular and palpable inference drawn from the nature of the case — that the immenw maases of money which this man has drawn from the Treasury a-* State printer — s<-» hugdy dis- proportionate to the work performed — were acquired by fraud and peculaliou. Satisfied that an effectual and final stop was put to his career of plunder— they swallowed their indignation and paid their taxes a.^ best they might, while be ha.s quietly and smiling- ly pocketed his ill->;otten gains, and made merry at their exfteuse. We cculd not, nor do we wish, to add anything to the deep- seated conviction already entertained of his dishonesty We propose only to show that the popular conviction does him no injustice and to prove him the scoundrel the certainty of which lia-s heretofore been taken for

Now let us try thw part by Gotnlrich'!* method of compiiution : 32 p*gefl make a sheet, 472 will therefore make 14) sheelA. In Si)t>n c'»[.ieH then, there will l»e be 4 1,OOU shaetti. Divide \h\\ now, by 480 the number of shevta in a ream and w« find the whole luimber of reams cousumeil m the work in question to have been but 93 18-100. Yet, mark, you, the pure and virtuous Earle charged the State for 187 ^i 01 more than twice the amount of paper actually l^Jn<^u^led according to big own compulation

ciie<i the tollowiuf; item —

7 so tokens, at $1 ^ 780

Mr. Goodrich is fortnnate enough to have a pret^s capable of working o.f 16 pages at one impression To print 472 pages on his press would re<juire 29},t impreeBion.-!. Mul- tiply this by the whole number of copies printed, 3,000| and the whole number of impressions taken on his press was therefore 88,500. There are 240 impresaions in a token — cODsequeutly the whole number of tokens actually worked ofi on bis preas amount to bat 368^. But be baa charged the State for 780, oc for mc«^ than twice the work actually performed. But we will give Mr. Goodrich the benefit ot the conve- nient fiction that hu> presa is capable of working ofl a form of only b pages at one impresaioD. In that case the namber of to> kens would be doubled, or 737>^. But he has chargeil for 780 tokcas, or for 42 J^ to- kens more than be printed according to bis own method of computation. But here again we give him the benefit of the typo, graphical role, that a fraction of a token counts for a full token, which would make the whole number of tokens 750.

Giving him the l>enefit of fiction in his ca>>e which makes one token count two, and the rules of m^tisuremenl iu case of frac- tions— there remains a swindle ot 3o tokens which cannot be disguised in any fiction whatsoever. Recollect too, that this pre«4 work fraud wa.s perpetrated when be was recfjiving the extravagant rate of 81 per token while the price now paid is but 63 cents.

These are only two items of one bill whose damning evidences of rascality are not half exhausted — and this is but one bill taken at random from among a huge pile of similar enormitioj.

Now that we have got our hand m — thanks to .Mr. Goodrich's intended challenge — we propo.se to continue from time to time our illustrations of bis transactions as State printer till we shall have placed upon record bis whole financial history in that capacity. We shall show that that history waa a piece of bold, high handed and methodical vil- lainy throughout — and besides satisfying the public curiosity with an insight into the de- tails of the gigantic robberies which now prens so heavily on the tax-payers of Minne- sota, we shall be able, when we have sum- med up the resultn of our inquiries, to show abundant canse why be should be compelled by process of law, to dl'^gorge his ill-gotten gain>^.

LOCAL AFFAIRS.

••The Noble Eablk."— Our distinguished friend, the "ground and lofty tumbler" of the Pionttr, yest^irday morning seated himself in the lobby of tbe Senate, with airs much reminding one of the style in which the senior member of the firm of Mason and Slidell wa? formerly wont to seat himself in the corresponding branch of the National I/?gi3!atiire. He came in to fiee the tre-men-du-otis efieoi of his onslaught upon Mr. Marshall of the Press Company. Wht?ii Mr. Marshall received twenty votes, (those ot all the Senators present) for inci- dental punter, his lordship wrapped the fold^ of his toga about him and departed in disgust at tbe Republican and Democratic wisdom of that branch of the Legislature,

Rev. a. S. Fiske.— The choice of this gentleman as Chaplain of the Senate is in no wise considered a local triumph by his neighbors of St. Paul. His fearless and out- spoken utterances from tbe pulpit denunci- atory of that great crime against God and m which hu.-* plunged our nation into civil war, long since gave him a State repu- tation. And when his nane was put forth in the caucus on Monday night, there was more than one Senator who threw his bal- lot in the right direction, knowing that by doing so he was not only awarding justice 10 a true Christian gentlemen, but also ad- ministering a rebuke to that pro-slavery journal of our city, the Piwuer, which nev- er lets a convenient opportunity slip with- out abusing Mr. F. for the utterance of sen- timents alike creditable to his own heart and the age in which he lives. He has never preached a sermon wherein he chose to puncture the rotten and rebellious carcass of the "divine institution," without the next day rtx^eiviog upon his head the outpourings of tbe Pioneer* vials of pro-slavery wrath. Hence we. in connection with all bateia of slavery in the State, rejoice at Mr. Fi-^ke's election as Chaplain of the Senate.

Message of Gov. Morgan of New York.

Alba.n't, Jan. 2.

The following is a digest of the annual message of the Governor of New York, to the Legislature :

After revie>wing brielly the present con- dition of the country he says : Our State credit, the index of an abiding iaith in the Government, never stood higher than now, and the finances, although drawn on heavily for the war. are in a \ cry satisfactory con- dition. Forty per c(nt. of the advances made by the State hav' bcea returned from the Federal Treasury.

The Governor recommends such legisla- tion on capital punish tnent as will impose the death penalty only in the first decree of murder.

He reconimeods thct works on military tactics be introduced icto all State Colleges, and academies, and tliat drill be made a part of the exercises.

The banking business of the State is re- ported to he in a sounl and he.ilthful con- dition.

Emigrants arriving at New York have fallen o8 3.") per cent, from last year, and are less than any yeai since the organiza- tion of the Board of Commissions of Emi- gration.

The Governor recommends that the New York proportion of tbe federal tax, 820,- 000,000, be assumed ai once by the .State, and proposss a mode U r its liquidation.

The condition of the miiitia i? alluded to and legislafion recommended that will con- form with the laws o " Congress, and im- prove the eflBciency of tbe discipline of the Slate militia.

The (joveruor then enters on a review of th( political (roubles of the Country and the action of the State of New York. The aggregate number ol men raised for the war in the State has hern 120,.")78 ; the numbei now in the field, deducting the killed, wounded, prisoners and discharged, is 89,034. There are now in the State, in addition, mustered into the United States service, 14,500 men. 1 he New York troops arc scattered over nine Stales, and in forty •» three differeiit brigade*, under twelve Gen- erals of division. They have taken part in every engagement dn -ine; the war, east of tbe Allcghanies, and soulh ot AVashiogton.

The Governor allude? to the state of har- bor defences, and calls Tor prompt and effect- ive measures in legislat.on.and for an imme- diate effort to obtain si itable appropriations from Congress to provile for defencts of the coast and that immediate preliminary surveys be taken at once to ascertain what defenses are nece.*-ary He recommends that the State proceed at once with works, looking to the (Jene-al Government for reimbursement. Nev.- York's interest in preserving peace with foreign nations is enlarged upon and war with England dep- recated as fraught w th untold disasters. No mere pretext or caprice of court or cabinet, no cause whatever iinless it in- volved National dignity, it we are denied the positive right, could justify represen- tatives of the State consenting to a war with any foreign pover, especially at the period when extraordinary snpplies of men and money have been and will be drawn from us to overwhelm insurgents at home. The message concludes with the patriotic declaration that New "i'ork will cast every- thing into the balacce to preserve the dignity and stability o the Government

tarSES FOURTH PAGS.

XXXVII CONGRESS-FIRST SESSION.

Wabhixoton, Jan. 7.

Mr. Hatcbins said he may have misun- derfatood his colleague. At all events when and where has his colleague from tbe com- mencement of this rebellion ever voted for measure for subduing rebellion or to estab- lish the authority of the United State*? The records of the House scarely show a vote or a speech of his colleague in which he had not opposed the war ever since it* commencement. He believed that was* fair statement of the position oi bis col- league and now he would have held «.,n to Messrs. Mason and Slidell in order that it might result in war with Great Britain for tLe benefit of tbe rebels.

Mr. Thomas of Massachusetts said tbe question involved points of law and some nicety. It was too much to assume that this country could take another war into ita hands and we mtist therefore wait. We are not caiieil on to say that the de- mand of England was manly and just. It ^ was nuuianly trnd anjost. He denied that in capturing Mason and Slidell an insult to tho British flag, in violation of iatercatiocal law, was intended, and argued that we had a right to do what waa done on that occaiion.

England ba« done to U3 a grievious wrong in making a demand for Mason and Slidell It was insolent in spirit and unjust. Eng- land is treasuring to herself wrath against the day of wratlj. She has pbced ic tbe — f—

heart'' of our people a deep sense of wrong at a lime when we cannot respond, but wo ehall be watching through the watches c^ the night lo strke tbe blow of rlghteooa retribution.

Mr. Stevens moved the previous qaestioo under tbe operation of which the documents were referred to the committee on loreigD affairs.

The Uouse went into committee of tht whole on the bill for the payment cf sundry civil expenses.

Mr. Vallandigham thanked Mr. Thomas for the temper of his speech and its states- manlike view. Mr. Vailandigham then en- tered into an explanation of bis position, burling back insinuations that be gave aid and comfort to the rebels.

Mr. Bright corrected a garbled report of a late speech, and said that the reporter was guilty ot an unmitigated falsehood who said be had declared in favor of the exten- sion of slavery.

AFTEB THE CONTBAOTOBS.

The arrival In Cincinnati of the comnoit- t€e authorized by Congress to investigate contract frauds m the army, furnishes the Cioclanati Commercial material for ibe fol- lowing remarks upon the subject :

" Tbi» committee has, if we are not misin- formed, got upon severiil tracks that will lead to the diacoTery of public robbers The onlr diSculty is that public oiiinion dooa not hold

fTtiX thieves to be as intumous as small ones. he man who will speculate in the misfortunes of his countrj, is a scoundrel of the meaaest degree, and he is not adequately punished if the people do tsot hold him to bo sacb. The country needs educating in this matter. It is useless to exrHjae rogues unless thev are prop* erly branded as disreputable, and hooted from associations with honest men. As the case lunds. men in high places are covered with ovidence uf defrauding their couotry, und yet are not properly uuderstood to be moredeaerr- iDg Bconi than the average of the iamatea uf a penitentiary."

XHLRL.OW WEED^S OBSEBVA- TIONS ABBOAD.

The Albany Evening Journal ot ynster-

day publishes a letter fr»m Mr. Weed, dated

London, Dec. 8, from which we extract the

following:

"Strong, active and subtle influences have been at work here to render our Secretary of Siateobnoxinus to thia Government, ita pi'ess and people. And these influences have been 80 successful ttiut he is everywhere regarded, not only as an enemy of England, but ai> one who, from personal hostility or political con- sideration, re;iliy desires a coUi^iion between the two nations."

Referring to the Herald, he says:

That ijifluence, l.".rgely responsible for the war already upon our hands, might, one would suppose, be content to wait till the war is over, before seeking to embarrass the count try abroad.

The following incident is also mentioned:

A pleasant incident occurred yesterday. Bi«hop Mcllvain, who attended church, was identified ani invited into the pulpii, after which prayers were read for not only the Queen, but for thr> President, Congress, and people of the United States.

SO.nEBMCT, KENTUCKY.

This village has become pretty familiar lately, occurring in so many letters and dis- patches from the seat of war in Kentucky. The correspondent of the Cincinnati Oom- mercial sayn of it:

"It is a small inland town — in fact, rather insigaiticant— stores closed, taverns on aamall •cale, private dwtlliog^s with their chimneys on the outer ends of the buildings, after the style of years ago, and a few old decayed buildings which have fallen into smill hpnps of ruin,

Sving a minute illustration of Pompeii and erculaneuin. Citizens, selti:ih ana rather distant in their manners, owing, I presume, to their neutrality on the war question, and the predominance of secesaionism before we iiTived here. Numbers of citizens who are ■cc sod of giving aid to the enemy, are brought 10 hsadqunrters every day, and after one of the most strict examinations, are honored with BO escort of arnied men out of the gunrd haes. wiih the advice to go to their homes and a'tend to their domestic duties, as good loyal men should, or else join the army, and fi,{ht for their countrv."

CATHOLICS ON THE TItSON AND SLIOELL QUESTION.

The Catholic newspapers are particularly severe on the English governmen'. aioce it has 80 plainly shown its sympathy for the slaveholders in rebellion, and a desire to see this government broken up.

The Cvtholic Telegraph, of Cincinnati,

epeaking of the Mason and Slidell a£f<dr,

Bays :

Messrs. Mason and Slidell have been surren- dered. Our Secretary of State has done well. The effect desired bas been produced ; England has shown her hand and her heart too, and henceforth there will be lew if any found to acknowledge her relationship. The revolution- Brv war, and the lust war, did not leave such a ffciiog ot intolerable loathing for England, as her conduct in the present crisis of our Union. She is here, as in Italy, Mexico.Spain and Anstria, the general disturber of the hu- man race, the enemy of peace, the conspirator as^ainst Uod and man. ller conduct shows the necessity of the Monroe doctrine north and south. If our government refuses European intervention in South America, it ought to eS'dce it in the north ; and should the present civil war be conducted aa we hope and believe It will, in the restoration of the Union, our late dispute with England shows we have a bitter and dangerous enemy in Canada. The Uonroe doctrine north and south at the proper time.

The Boston Pilot, Xew York TaWe/.and other similar journals, also discuss the mat- ter, and find in Knglatid's heartless, merce- nary and insolent course towards the gov- ernment of the United States, additional fuel to feed the flames of their hate against her.

Gen. Sherman and tue Slaves. — Gen. Sherman, writing from I'ort Royal to a Senator, says that if he had issued a proclamation immediately on landing in South Carolina, offering protection to all alavea that should enter his lines, he might have had ten thousand about him by thia time. But he expresses a conviction that the course he pursued was best ; that the time haa not yet come for such a proclama- tion to have its full effect, and will not come perhaps lor two or three months yet

— On New Yearn day President Lincoln held a public reception from 12 m. to 2 p. m., wbeo thousands in a cootiououa stream passed through the form of preseotatioa to the Chief Magistrate.

—The Doard of Education cf New York city have fixe i the salaries of leachurs at $1 ,500 for the highest, and thence down to $ibO. The hisjhest salary paid for a female teacher is 8700.

—Cholera is aaid to be making great ravages in the East Indies. At Oawupore the natives are the principal victims. At Kandahar eight thousand people d\^'\ in eighteen days.

News from Nassau confirms the tntel-

ligence already received, that United States vessels are refused permission to take in ' coal there, while lebel ships have every facility offered them.

—The Charleston Mercury, of Dec. 7, gives the particulars of a firo in that city which destroyed a large amount of property. The firemen succeeded in checking it, but the Mercury states that it was incendiary in ita origin. This fact and its occurrence 30 short a time before the conflagration of the 12th is most significant.

— A volunteer and some citizens were talking about the war, at Elraira, a few days since, when, a difference having arisen, some persons proposed to settle it by taking a drink " No, no I" said the volunteer, "that is not the way to talk. You and all other men who can possibly leave home should at once agree to enlist. This war must be fought out and settled with all possible dispatch. Drinking I won't settle it; for if it would, our officer$ would have settled it long ago .'"

— A private letter from Washington, to ue of the proprietors of the Buffalo Com mercial Advertiser, says : "Look out for a combined movement of all the forces at the disposal of Gen McClellan soon. He is now waiting for the completion of arrange- ments West. He is ready here, as are also the naval forces. There will be a a fight all around the board."

—The Philadelphia Enq'iirer proposes, as a means of making up the deficiency in the p'. 8- ofiBce revenue, a tax of five cents upon every telegraph dispatch sent over the wires. It estimates the number of such dispatches— exclusive of those to the press — at two hundred millions. This is probably an excessive estimate ; but the number is vast ; and, with a tax of even three cents, woald increase the revenue by millions.

— The London Punch inadvertently gives a true idea of the British style of dealing with nations, in the following stanza :

"Then think twice, and think well, ere from

guard of the Lion Those who seeK his protection you try to

withdraw ; Though Siowell and Wheaton and Kent you

rely on. There are points on which Lions won't listen

to jaw."

•'.Might makes right," is John Bull's motto ; the -'Lion" i:^ to decide according to the law of the strongest ; and all argument, however well founded, he regards an all 'jaw" and n f u.-es to listen to it.

— The New York limes thinks it a little amusing to reflect bow perfectly quiet Can- ada waK under the Treut "outrage." until she heard from England. It was not until tiie old lion growled that the whelp-s thonght of wbiuing. Canada look^ abroad for her resentments, a.'^ well a.-< for her opinions, governors and other lusurii.^.

— A French princess being told that the poor in Paris were dying of starvation. said, ''What silly people I before I'd starve, I'd eat brown bread and mutton." The story i.'' similar to one told of the late Duke of Cambridge, Victoria's uncle, during the fariiine of England : ''What I starve I" said he. "and pine-apples to be had for a guinea (•So) a piece I''

— It would seem that Gen. Scott did not come home on any special mission. The N. Y. liines says he make.^ no secret of the fact that his rtason tor coming home was the apprehension of immediate hostilities between England and the United States, and the fear thai if he did not embrace this op- portunity of returning, he could not return at a 1. The only high personage with whom Gen. Scott had any political conversation in Fiance was Prince Napoleon — and to hiia he expressed his con6dent belief that, if loreign nations do not interfere, the rebel- lion would be effectually suppressed by mid- summer, and that befor: that time cotton for the supply of the immediate necessities of other nations would be supplied through the Southern ports, of which oar troops are taking possession.

— The Boston Traveller of Monday of last week says owing to a want of com- munication with Fort Warren on Saturday in consequence of the gale, the prisoners taken from the Trent were ignorant of the decision of the Federal Government in fa- vor of their release. On Sunday, however, newspapers were carried down, contrining the official correspondence, and Mr. Maeoo was noticed at the window of his room pe- rusing the intelligence with a smile of ?atis- laction upon his countenance: Mr. Slidell kept in the back ground.

— "Hallo, stranger, you appear to be traveling." "Yes, I always travel when on a journey." "I think that I have seen yovi somewhere." "Very likely yon have — I have often been there." "And pray what might be your name ?'" "Well, it might be Sam Patch ; it isn't." "Have you been long in these parts?" "Nevermore than at present— five feet nine." -Do yen get anything new ?" ''Yes I bought a new whetstone this morning." ''1 thought so — you are the sharpest blade I have seen on this road."

— The Canadians are jubilant over the issue of the Trent affair. The news of the surrender of Mason and Slidell was received on Saturday with joy along the whole line ot the Lake Huron Railroad, demonstrated by firing of guns of every description, and the punishment of large qnantitira of liquor.

— Per contra to the charges against Gen. Benbam by Gen. Rosecrang relative to mis- management in Western Virginia, the friends of the former stoutly defend him, and throw the blame upon bis superior officer. Noth- ing but a rigid investigation will settle the question.

—A correspondent of the New York World states that a rehearing of the famous Burch divorce case will be had at the Feb- ruary Term of the Circuit Court of Will cooQty.

BRITISH NAVY AND OUH OWN. ~-

D'^iiald .Vlcta>, th.- .\ia»»rje»ii ohip- bjiliier, furnishes to 'he Boston Oommer- ciid Bulletin a letter in n'ir>»rd to «he British Navy, which has at thi- iiuir » peculiar in- terest. He sayn thm the Britisfi tlovern- luent ha-: now nflont 9v.> iron cafetl ships ranging Iruni 22 t< 40 iruns. and fiom 600 to 1,250 hwi>e puW'T each. Uf thesi' two have mad* trial tnp^—the '• Warrior" at- taining the hijrh i»pee«i '>f 14,13 knoi», with alt her unuameut, storrtt and provisions al>oard The "Black Prince" ha.«" obtained a higher speed than the -Warrior." In ad- dition to these, two other iron- clad vessels are building, and six others are to be built. Five wooden ships are building, designed to be armor-plated The coat of these vessels will be some thirty-nine millions of dollars. They are to be afloat within a year. The French Goveniment will by the sam*' time have afloat twenty-one clad ship««.

In reference to onr ability to compete with these immense naval preparations, Mr. McKay says :

It would be well for as to build, in one year, a fleet of 500 to 600 meo-of-wnr ships, trom a gunboat up to the largest class of iron-cased frigate. It ig a well known fact that wo built, in one year, the astonish- ing number of 2,034 veaseli and sieamtrs, ot all dlasses, measuring together 583,450 tons. A large number of these vessels were as large as the biggest clau of frigates hitb* erto constructed. What we hafe done onoe we may do over again, and working at the same rate, we would be able alone in our merchant yards to turn out, in one year, 583 ships of 1,000 tons each. In our six navy yards, where the choicest materials are stocked for building a fleet ol 100 shijie. 60 more men-ot-war ahips might be built in one year, making a total of 643 men of- war ships of all casses, varying in their armament from 3 to 60 guns. More than a hundred of our greatest engineering firms would complete all the mauhiuery necessary to put iu these ships in less that a year. Our capabilities and facilities of building ships have not in the least suflered by the loss ot the seceded States. They never were ship-building States, and as late as 16G0 they only built (combiuedj one lull- rigged ship, while the northern States built 110 ships of the same description. That is to say, in plain words, all the seceded Slates combined did not build even 'one i>er cent.' of the sea-going ships built in the United Slate?.

It is true, on a very urgent occasiou, \a a great emergency, our couotry could largely increa.se her navy in a few months, with very powerful descriptions of vessels, if they could proceed as follows : Cut down all our liue-of-battle ships one or two decks, case them with five- inch iron plates, put a battery uf thirty or forty guns of the heav- iest calibre ou board of them, and moor them across the entrance ot our harbors Plate our heavy irigates with shell-proof iroi plate». and to make up for the addi- tional weight -put iu(o them, do away with their armament on the upper deck. Trans- form one hundred of ocr best sea going iiier- cbaut steanaerg into so many frigates, sloops, dispatch and gunboats of a speed superior to any inen-of war yet produced. Among onr large clipper ships and traders, mure than five hundred may be found that are capable to bu transtormed into so many efficient sailing itloops and frigates Their length varies from 220 to 300 teet, their breadth, from 40 to 52 feet and, whenever they are cut down one deck, or their decks are lowered, will be found capable of carry- ing an armament varying from twenty to fifty heavy guns, accoiding to their respec- tive capt»citie.-. Twenty or thirty of our best and largest clipper ships might very well be transformed into powerful screw frigates— as for instance the great Republic, which exceeds in her dimensions the largest English fifty gun frigates, while her shape tor speed is incomparably superior. The Bcnntling of all these ships is well known to be larger than that of tie best and strong- est men-of-war ships of our navy,

•' Among tho barks and brigs there are certainly 400 to 500 capable of receiving an anuametit of from 8 to 20 guns, and more than a thousand of our large coasting schooners that have a breadth of 28 to 30 leet and ov^ r, and a (<rta never surpafsed for speed, can in a tew weeks be transformed into men-ol-war schooners, armed with one pivot gnn of the heaviest description in the m ddle, and two or four 32 pounders at the ends. These vessels have a very large sta- bility, and the scantling of their timbers, etc., in by 20 per cent heavier iban that ot the common men-of-war schooners. Ihis fleet of about 2,000 vessels of war, can, (working with all the natural energy of our nati)n) oe turned out in less time than four to six months, and it would be sufficient to protect our coast and meet the first storm. Time would be so gained to build a fleet fit to represent our great nation, and to make our flag once more respected io all the seas ot the globe.

On Moodtt^' evening the Loril Obamber- teiii issued hiw in'tructioiwi for rhe ftjneral. Thij custom, which remain^-d In forct; up to the burial of William IV., i»f interring nn'mlx-rs 01 the royal fumily by lorcli light, haf t'-t many years bot-u diwcontinuid, and will uot oe rtrsuiuecl on ihiti melaotiioly oc- casiou. The funeral will luktj place on Monday next, belwtjLii eleven aou twelve o'clock iu il»e loreuooD. The funeral will not be a state one, nor will the remain^j of bib lioyal ilighoeea lie in state. But, few and simple as are the rites which mark these solemn occasion.-*, a great amount of prepa- ration i** necessary beforehand, eit. George's Chapel, Windsor, where the interment will take place, has to be draped and carpeted with black, the royal vault has t.o be opened and time allowed lor the representatives of foreign courts who will be deputtxl to attewi on this occasion At the funeral the Priuce of Wales will act as' chief mourner, support* ed by tne Duke of Cambridge and by tSie Crown Prince of Prussia. The r mains will be laid in the royal vault. There are two vaults beneath St George's Chapel — the Gloucester and the royal vault. The for- mer was finally built up after the interment of her Royal Highness the Duchess of Gloucestei. the IttSt member of that branch ot the House of Hanover. The royal vaalt is kept apart excloiively for the coffins ol ibe immediate menxbers ot the reigning fam- ily. Three gates dose the entrance to this final renting plao** of departed royalty, the keys of which are kept by the Sovereiifn, the Lord Chamberlain, and the Dean of the Chapels Royal. Except for the burial of the Queen Dowager, who was laid by the side of her royal bushajM), this vault baa not been opened fJoce the lieati) of William IV. On Monday, the inner shell and lead- en coffin, whieh wdl enclose the remains o' the Priuce Consort, were forwarded to Wind- sor. According to custom the body will be interred in four (»ffinp, the inner one, or shell, being of polished caahogany, cased outfide with lead ; then an outer, plain but very massive o<jfBQ of mahogany ; over all comos the state coffin or caee, ot crimson velvet, and with massive silver gilt orna- ments. On the leaden coffin is to be a silver plate, engraved with the style and titles of the deceased Prince. The outer mahogany cofflo will simply bear a plate with hia name and datea of bis birth and death. On the state coffin will be the ooatomary silver gilt plate bearing an inscription similar to that on the leaden coffin.

The Time^ bag the IcUowing retOArki pn the part which the Prince of Wales is now called upou to ansume :

The Prince of Wales is rapidly ap- proaching the age when a man is held to be capable of every responsibility, and by tho measure of years he should now be as competent to assist his mother as the Prince Consort when he assumed that duty, ilc haa been so educated as to bring him tn contact with a large variety of men, of mindi>, of people, and of manners. By a happy fureihought he has visited the very nation that noty threatens to escape trom worse difficulties by a war with its mother country. It the Prince of Wales is ever to be a wise and good Sovereign, he will now be a wise and good son ; and if he will ever feel any cause to devote himself to his country a.s his parents have done, he will feel it now. This is the time for that self sacrifice on which tho rireatness of a crowu, as well as the glory of a states man, a soldier, or a priest, roust be found- ed. This, indeed, is the occasion such as historians and dramatists have loved to describe in the lives of their favoritu princes, when the Prince of Wales will have to make a solemn choice between a life of frivolity, perhaps of trouble and misery, and a reign of usefulness, to make his name blessed lorcver. He must resolve.

A GOOD SrORY.

A very good story is told at the expense of Col, J. K ComHtock, wdo for many vears '»a9 widely known as the " prince of landloTd8"-^nd proprietor of the Olean House in this village. Many years ago Comstock wi*3 " legally served," for violat- ing thu licen* law. The trial was had at Porlv lie, and the justice, after hearing the proofs, entered up a judgment against the " ho»*t " of the Olean Hou«e. Of course John was " hopping mad. ' Ue would " carrp it up, and blow the judgment to

! ' Hon Benj. Chamberhn was then

first Judge of the county— and shortly after the events, above partially narrated, the Jndgs pat up for the nght with Col. Corn- stock. Alter supper, John unburdened himself to Judge Chamberlain, relating very minutely the circumstances attending hie coovictioo at Portville, Ac, <fec. The Jadg(t blandly but strongly urged John to carry the suit up to tho Common Pleas — " there you are pretty sure to have justice done ye !" Having sati-^fied himself that Jndgu Chamberlain would do him justice. Col. Oomslock directed his attorney to ap- peal the cause to the Common Pleas of the county. In due time, the cause was called. Judgi) Chamberlain presiding, who upon hearing the proofs, allegations, arguments, &c., promptly affirmed the judgment of the Justi<X''8 Court, to the utter confounding of Col. Comstock'n attorney, who had antici - patetl an easy victory for his client. Not long lifter this. Judge Chamberlin called again at tlie Olean House, and Col. Com- stock was ot course glad to see him. In the evening, " mine host " three or four times sought to bring up his liquor case, but the Judge evaded it. until Comstock boltei right on to it thai t

"Judge, you remember my liquor suit T" " Oh, yes, John, very well," replied the Judge.

" Ycju advised me to carry it up to yoar court, didn't you Judge?" aaid Comstock.

•' Yes, I did, John," said the Judge, "for I wanted you to be dealt tairiy by."

' The deuce you did ! But you beat me though, didn't you ?"— inquired Com.<<tock, in hisi peculiarly Fearchiog manner.

*' Yes, John," said the Judge, looking Comiitock very seriously in the face, " lAe fcuX ti Johti, your liquor for a year past has been w confoundedly poor, tiiot I hadn't the courage to reverse tfU judgment'"

John was silently sa'isBed, and bas never carri.jd up any more liquor suits. — Olean Paper.

A MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT.

fi-om the Chicago Tiibunt,"rd.

We are pained to write that Charles E. ZellsT, foreman of the job press rooms ot the Tr.bane ofiice, was killed yesterday morning. At the time of the sad and fatal occurrence, Mr. Z.-llar was shifdng a pally belt in order to start one of the large Adam?,' pnsses. In some way his hand be- came entangled t)etween the belt and the druni, and he was drawn up in an instant, his head striking the ceiling with fearful force and dashed down to the floor again, faliing upon bis lace.

Tfie press was stopped immediately, the enipioyeet* ol the ifhce came to his aid, and a phi'sician wa3 summoned, hut his services were of no avail, as the unfortunate man died after lingering in a halt senseless condi- tion about ten minutes. During this time he spoke but once, and then in reply to an interrogatory whether his wife should be sent for.

now JOHM BROWN SAVED THE CAPITAL.

The Washington correspondent of the Boston Journal tells the following singular story of the way io which John Brown's lawless raid into Virginia became the re- mote cause of the salvation of the Federal Capital :

When the marines dashed op to the door of the engine house, where Virginia chiv- alry quailed, they seized not cnly John Brown, but a quantity of powder, within the building, which be bad brought from Pennsylvania. After Brown and hi^ party were secured, the powder was placed in one ot the buildings, where it remained till April last. When the United States troops found that Virginia forces were preparing to make a descent upon the ferry for the purpose of capturing the arms, they looked about for ammunition. They did not dare to visit the magazine, for there were sharp eyes which watched every movement, and an at- tempt to take powder from there would precipitate an attac'i. Then it was that John Brown's powder was valuable. It was in small packages, and where it could be taken and distributed unknown to any outsiders. It was placed io the different buildings, the trains were laid, and just as the Virginians thought tho prize was theirs, they found that the Qames were ahead of them. It was designed that the several thousand stand of arms there stored should be distributed in Baltimore, where, ai you know, the outbreak immediately occurred, and that thence a descent would be made upon Washington. So John Brown's pow- der saved the capital. All of this will ap- pear, I am informed, with satisfactory ev- idence, io the report of the committee ap- pointed to investigate the Harper's Ferry afiair.

One way or another, there appe&rs to be a gcKxi deal of patching going on among them, which is not to be wondered at, con- sidering that they wear out their seats of government so last.

I'hat the Queen should gather her family around her, and address them at such a time for such a purpose itself, proves her confidence in them. That all, and above all the Prince of Wales, may be deserving of that confidence is now the prayer of this great country. We know not how much the destinies, not only of the British Em- pire, but of the whole human race, depend on tbti youthful Priuce, of whom we have seen so much, yet seem to know so little. Like the rest uf us, he has position, and honor, and power to win. He may be a true king, or a shadow of royalty ; and by all the laws of numan nature and the testi- mony of experience, the decision is to be made this very hour.

A BliANK DESCBIPTION.

A late French writer, in preparing a school-book as a "History of the World," has attempted to l>e witty by leaving those fourteen pages devoted to the United Statfs blank. We are afraid the Great American Republic will never recover from such a blow as that! Considering that a genuine Frenchman fancies there can be no world, in point of fact, outside the barriered of Par- i.S just as the Chinese call all humanity be- yond the Celestial Kingdom 'outside bar- barians," the only wonder u that the Gallic historian condescended to leave us, of this region, even a page to fill up. We should nuggett, however, that the French writer, in view of the short harvest bis country is enjoying at present, and the necessity it consequently lal)ors under of purchasing supplies from u.i would do well to write 'Granary of the World" on his blank pages. It would answer just as well for the United Slates as any other name in that book of his. As long as we can carry on a civil war without going abroad for a dollar, and can, at the same time, feed ourselves and the short-cropped nations ot Europe, i makes little difference what Europe term U.S. We can aBord to smile at their con tempt, so longa.i we arc permitted to pock- et their cash and perceive their envy. — Boston Transcript.

— By the death of Prince Albert, the Prince of Wales, the beir apparent, becomes, it is said, a more active participant in mat- ters of state. It has been suggested that Queen Victoria in herafBiction.and in view of the hereditary malady witb which she is supposed to be threatened, will be likely to abdicate the throne in his favor. For this, however, there can of course be no authority, nor could it affect in the least degree the general character and disposition of the Governme&t, if she should do so. Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, was born November 21, 1840, and is, therefore just turned of twenty-one.

— Colonels Meagher and Asbotb have been nominated to the Senate as Brigadier- Generala,
