Russian C. S. Purchase In England. 
The leadiug London Journals seem to “ac¬ 
cept the situation ” of our purchase witli good 
sense and good grace: 
The London News (Liberal) of the 2d, says 
that “ Russian America has been acquired by its 
natural purchaser—the great progressive power 
of whose advance* we cannot complain so long 
as they are achieved by legitimate means." The 
Times sayB, that “without sharing the excite¬ 
ment said to have been produced among British 
diplomatists in Washington, we cannot but re¬ 
cognize itasan event of considerable importance, 
attesting, as It does, the mysterious sympathy 
which has long existed between Russia and the 
United States, and establishing as it does a Re¬ 
publican instead of a Cossack power on the 
northwestern frontier of the new Confederation. 
It is probable that it has been purchased with a 
view of asserting the claim of the United States 
to supremacy on the American continent Since 
we have no right to protest, let us not place our¬ 
selves in a false position'by vain remonstances.” 
The Honolulu (Sandwich Islands) Chamber 
of Commerce is discussing a Reciprocity Treaty

more from ub than from any other country. 
Got. Geary lias appointed Col. George F. 
McFarland, at present a clerk in the School De¬ 
partment, and who lost a leg at Gettysburg, 
Superintendent of the Soldiers’ and Orphans’ 
Schools under the new law. 
Further investigation concerning the coin 
and bullion captured on the downfall of the 
Confederacy, shows conclusively that it belonged 
to the rebel government, notwithstanding that 
it was claimed by the Richmond and New Or¬ 
leans banks. 
THE reception extended to Senator Wilson in 
the Treraont Temple, Boston, last week, by the 
leading men in the temperance movement, was 
a grand a flair. Mr. Wilson, in his address, took 
decided grounds in favor of a prohibitory law, 
and against licensing. 
Three hundred tons of iron have arrived at 
Council Bluffs for the use of the Union Pacific 
Railway, and eight hundred tons more are on

season closes. 
The corporation of Brown University, Provi¬ 
dence, R. I., acccepted the resignation of Dr, 
Sears as President, and elected President Ander¬ 
son of Rochester U niversity, as his successor. It 
is not known whether he accepts. .Surely his 
many friends will regret the loss of Ids valuable 
services and genial presence here.

ROCHESTER, N. Y., APRIL 27, 1867. 
From WaMliluuton. 
A dispatch to the Evening Poet eays (April 
17th) a motion will be made in the Supreme 
Court to-morrow to bring up the Georgia in¬ 
junction case (involving the legal aspects of the 
military power, «Jkc., in the Reconstruction 
Bill) immediately, by waiving the usual sixty 
days’ rule. 
The President has replied to a resolution of 
the Senate asking for copies of any opinions of 
the Attorney General or any Government official, 
in regard to the power of the President to ap¬ 
point officers during the recess of CoDgress, and 
the Tenure of Office Bill. 
It seems no opinions have been given, offi¬ 
cially, except Edward Jourdan, Treasury Soli¬ 
citor, wrote Secretary McCulloch in March, 
that in certain cases he judged the Secretary 
had power to appoint revenue officers. 
Appointments and rejections of officers are 
the main business. 
The Senate adjourned Saturday, the 20th inst., 
until July. 
The Anniversary of Emancipation in the Dis¬ 
trict was observed by the colored people, in 
large numbers with order and enthusiasm, pro¬ 
cession, speeches, <fce. 
The 15th — the day of President Lincoln’s 
death —flags on public buildings and offices, 
lilld the tiotola, rvaro Ut lllill liltt.*!, and avvoral 
buildings draped in mourning. 
The Washington Chronicle says the impres¬ 
sion prevails that there will be no quorum for a 
session of Congress in July, as the feeling be¬ 
tween the Senate and Executive is better, and 
there is more confidence that the South will 
accept the terms of reconstruction. 
Some appointments to office are not filled.

Rochester, April 28,1867, j 
There is greater ease In onr local money market tlian 
for a few weeks past. Money is more abundant at the 
east, uud rates of Interest are lower. Loans on call are 
made at 5®6 per cent., with government collaterals. 
Gold is higher, mainly In consequence of renewed war 
rnmorH In Europe. Stocks at the Faria Bourse declined 
at the close of the week, which was taken as an Indica¬ 
tion on this side that some trouble was anticipated be¬ 
tween France aud Prussia. If there should be war In 
Knrope, American stocks, which Jnst now are somewhat 
depressed abroad, will soon be in active demand at Im¬ 
proved rates. 
The general business of the country docs not Improve. 
Eastern Jobbers have now given np the Idea of a large 
business this spring, and are pressing goods upon their 
customers at rates that leave no profit. Under the pres¬ 
ent state of things the manufacturing Interests cannot 
prosper. 
IVheat and Fun 7 is.—T he prices of wheat and Hour 
are firm, The advance In New York has been somewhat 
checked by the liberal arrivals of wheat from California. 
The receipts from the Pacific State are likely to be con¬ 
siderable for some time to come. 
A farmer In this region, a few days since, made appli¬ 
cation to borrow money at a banking institution, desir¬ 
ing the loan nntll tin- price of wheat, of-which be bad 
considerable for sale,should reach f&fiu per bushel. The 
present rate—43.15 per hushel—was uot satisfactory. We 
would enggest to hoick la of wheat that they may hold on 
for higher prices too |ot*g, The prospects for an abnnd- 
ftlH t rwl' ot ■wlutfrr were UCTci Lv-Hfll, rat tlilr. $Qa- 
son of the year, than at present. If the present fair prom¬ 
ise continues until the middle of May, ttwIU have a great 
effect In bringing out the wheat now held back by the 
producer. 
Wool.— Manufactured goods continue dull, and as a 
consequence manufacturers are close buyers of the raw 
material. The sales In Boston last week were very fair, 
amounting to about 925,000 lbs. The range for fieeee was 
50@75c., and 80@67c. for pulled.

Vera Cruz was still closely besieged, on 
the 5th inst., hy the Liberals. The water js 
cut off and vegetables, frnit and flour gone. 
Salt provisions, from the vessels, are used. The 
Imperial Prefect expatriates all who are sus¬ 
pected of adhering to Juarez. Some private 
persons reached Vera Cruz from Mexico, aud 
report Puebla taken from the Imperialists on 
the 2d instant. 
The forces in the city are about 13,000; the 
besiegers some 30,000. 
It is reported that Maximilian, at Mexico, has 
proposed capitulation, aud it has been referred 
to Juarez at l’otosi. It appears, hy intercepted 
correspondence” that Santa Anna has proposed 
first, to Juarez and then to Maximilian, to fight— 
for or against the Republic — and was refused 
by both sides. _

It was understood, in London, the 17th, 
that, the Spanish Government had acceded to a 
^,,0 .1 pai'i iti u of IKo duglutb f ond 
the ship Victoria would he released. 
The Daily News says in the oily article owing 
to prospects of rupture of relations with Spain, 
a few transactions have occurred at Lloyds in 
war risks. 
The British Government propose to extinguish 
24,000,000 of national debt before 1885, hy means 
of terminable annuities. 
The London Times says it is a disgrace to 
Franch statesmen that the Luxemburg scheme 
should ever have been entertained, France will 
show her deference for European opinion hy 
abandoning this ill-omened negotiation, which 
would not only unite ail Germany against her, 
hut break off the intimate friendship which pre¬ 
vails between her and other European powers. 
Both sides talk fairly, hut are making great 
military preparations. Admiral Persino, who 
commanded the Italian fleet at Liasa, has been 
cashiered for his had conduct. 
Prussia is firm on the cession of Luxembourg. 
South Germans naturalized as citizens here are 
in danger of being held to military service, if 
they revisit certain German States.

High Water.—A special dispatch from Dos 
Moines, la., the 18th, says the Des Moines River 
is rising rapidly and doing great damage. A large 
portion of the city is under water. 
The bridge over Court Avenue was carried 
away this morning with two men who were on 
the piers. 
It is reported that a great rise from melting 
snow far to the north has not yet reached that 
point. If so there will he great destruction of 
property in that, section, as the water is now 
within a few inches of high water mark.

highest grade of onr city free schools, t ook place 
at Corinthian Hall on the evening of the 11th, 
before an audience of some 1,500 persons. The

From tlie Soutlr. 
General Sickles has issued orders from 
Charleston, S. C., the 11th, stating that general 
destitution among the people in-North and South 
Carolina, renders necessary extra measures for 
relief. 
No person shall be imprisoned for debt except 
in case of fraud—that judgments for debt be sus¬ 
pended for a time—that all suits for money for 
flic sale of negroes, be suspended. Property of 
absent debtors shall not be taken, and in all 
cases a reserve of goods and implements worth 
$500, shall be allowed to debtors. 
The carrying of deadly weapons by civilians 
is forbidden. 
Gen. Sickles makes wages for labor a lien on 
tbe,erops. 
A large meeting of foreign residents and 
adopted'eitizens of South Carolina was held in
