George H. Chase, a messenger at the Post Of- 
llco Department, and Frank AloGritw, a Wfttch- 
in.ui at the State Department, have been arrest¬ 
ed on a charge of robbing the latter Department 
ot a number of gold and silver treaty seals. 
The accused, on toting taken to police headquar¬ 
ters, fiuding the detectives were in possession of 
p too is of tlielr guilt, confessed to the larceny 
of seven seals which t hey had incited and sold. 
Actiug under the direction of the prisoners the 
detectives recovered a number of gold and sil¬ 
ver nuggets into which iho seals had been molt¬ 
ed. The Department claims that ten scale were 
stolon, as that number are missing. Ouc of the 
seals was attached to n Turkish treaty, oue to a 
German convention, and the other to different 
treaties between the United States and toreign 
countries. It is said the principal party in iho 
robbery was Chase, tlio Post, Office messenger, 
who was a friend of McGrow, and who stole the 
seals with the connivance and permission of the 
latter. The seals, most of which were of gold, 
were Inclosed in circular boxes, some ot gold 
aud others of silver, about mi inch high and 
from three lo live inches in diameter. The value 
of the melted silver recovered is £75, while that 
of the gold is several hundred dollars. It is 
roughly estimated that the money value of the 
stolen seals is between $400 and $500.

^ Mr. Harris allowed his hogs to feed from a field

ie put it in a pasture for the cattle to eat. Mr. 
Vnsoy thinks the deaths among the cattle were 
ro occasioned by inflammation ot the stomach and 
intestines, from eating so much green corn fod- 
e der, and perhaps tho difficulty was aggravated

in the most energetic, though temperate, lan¬ 
guage. and calls, on behalf ot the Emperor and 
people of Germany tor redress. 
TheFreuch wheat crop will fall short of the

Paris, Sept. 85—The journals to-day have re¬ 
ports of the discovery of a conspiracy in Paris 
for the restoration of Napoleon. It is stated 
that. Napoleon's Prefect or Police (Pletre) was at 
the bead ot the conspiracy here, and that lie was 
eating under the direct instructions of the Em¬ 
peror. 
Paris, Sept. 20 —The evacuation by the Ger¬ 
man troops of the four Departments contiguous 
to Paris is completed. It is known, however, 
that the German soldiers returning to their 
homes have halted beyond the borders of those 
Departments, and areawaiting the auuouuce-

MONEY AND TRADE AFFAIRS, 
New York, Saturday, Sept. 30,1871. 
The Fall trade keeps very active. The Importa¬ 
tions for September prove larger than ever before 
known for this month at the port of New York, and 
they arc selling as freely as they come in. The For¬ 
eign Dry Goods auction sales are now going on with 
spirit, while the business in the staple articles of 
General Foreign Merchandise, such as Sugars, Cof¬ 
fee. Metals, &c., meet a good demand at private 
sale. The Domestic Commission houses are also 
well engaged in sales of Cotton and Woolen fabrics. 
The receipts of Domestic Produce are large, and 
the expons In the same line are on the increase. 
The clearances for Foreign markets this week aTe 
$5,250,000. The Duties paid in Gold on Foreign 
Goods are again about $4,000,000 for the week, reach¬ 
ing altogether for September nearly $17,000,000. at 
New York and at all the ports $23,000,000, The first 
quarter of the new fiscal year will yield to the Treas¬ 
ury from $62,000,500 to $65,000,000. The Internal 
revenues will yield $35,000,000 to $37,500,000. Of 
the $100,000,000 gross revenus for the three months, 
the Secretary of the Treasury will be able to apply 
over one-fourth to the reduction of the principal of 
the Public Debt, as his accounts now look. He 
bought this week, for cancellation, $5,000,000 United 
States 5-20S. 
Gold continues linn notwithstanding the sales ol 
$ 6 , 000,000 last week and $ 2 , 000,000 this week by the 
Treasury. It is not so scarce, however, for cash de¬ 
livery as before. The price is now about 115 per 
cent. 
The unfavorable look of the last Bank return has 
caused Money to advance to 7 per cent., as lhe rule 
among the Brokers, Who have Stocks to carry and 
among the Merchants seeking discounts at Bank. 
Of prime Merchant paper there is no large offering 
outside of Bank. 
The Stock market, affected by the change in Money. 
■ has been feverish this week, bur as the Brokers ac- 
. customed themselves to 7 per cent., and the traffic 
on the Railroads is reported good, the tendency is to
