ADMISSION OV OOLOBADO.
The thirty-seventh State was added to the Union
to-day by tue passage of tho bill for the admission
of Colorado. Some of the parties opposed to it
have started a rumor that the President will veto
the bill ; but many of its friends have no such ap
?itehoneioD, as the President, early in.the session,
n a special message, submitted the question of
admission to Congress, for the reason that the ir
regularity as to time and mode of adopting the
Constitution prevented him from issuing a procla
mation immediately dedaring Colorado a State in
the Union, as contemplated by the terms of the
enabling act. Mesera. Eraos and Chaffes, the

Tho New York papers .record two, oases of
cholera in that city. The facts ixe thus given:
On Monday ^afternoon, Dr. Wl V. White was
called to ?.'.tend Mrs. Jenkins, a native of Ireland,
aged 35 yeaxs, residing on the corner of Third
Avenue and 93d street, Yo'rkville, a quarter of the'
city, very Tem?te- from quarantine. From her
general appoarance, Dr. White beoame convinced
that sho was suffering ' from'cholera, and he im
mediately applied'the proper rem?dies.' The wo
man, however, sunk rapidly, and died between
nine and ten o'clock1 on Tuesday morning, The
case va? reported to the Sanitary Superintendent
of the Board of Health, and Dr. Harris was depu
tiert to mako a thorongh examination into thftjns
tory pf too woman's Illness, and,.tho. probable
oause. It was discovered, on inquiry, that Mrs.
Jenkin s'for several days past bad been engaged
in emptying theprivyattaphed to the house; using
the contents as manure for the garden. On Mon
day she was ouo?pi?d a? above until one o'clock
P.- M,, when Bhe was seized with violont pains in
the stomach, followed ' in' loss than an hour by
chol?ra.1 The premises Occupied by the family?
which were in a very dirty condition,, were at ohoe
opened and ventilated,'by'order of Dr. Harris.
The bedding, clothes and ' ntonella / used by the
woman were burnt, and the entire premise?
siro wed ' willi" ph'?to-chlorido- bf iron, chloride of
lime, ond other powerful diaonfectanta. Dr. White
has also beon directed .by tho authorities to ex
amine tho inhabitants of the house, which con
tains flvo families,, and. investigate the condition
of each person, rendering thom medical aid If no
oossary. Tho occupants were removed from the
house . on Wednesday, ? in . order to allow of the
premises boiug thoroughly .cleansed.., A post-mor
tem examination was held on' the body of the do
c?ased? and tho results of the examination are all,
characteristic of.oholora. The bowels were filled
with rice water-fluid, and Other evidences appear-;
ed peouliar to the disease. ;? ? ??
perien??^?IAws^e^of^nW amFklndred
diseases,, is of tho opinion Abatibe woman brought
the disease upon herself by the filthy work in
which she was oilgftgod at the 'time of the attack,
and that-the -sickness was not;?ore ?pid?mie
cholera. The caee, therefore, la a forcible admo- ;
nition on behalf of cleanliness.': It proves that
filth may .bread cholera as weil as facilitate Its
ravages. " '" ",J *?--'*..' ' '
' 'The health officers received tidings of another
ease of cholera in. the. city on. Wednesday after
noon.' AS the phvstcl?ns'of the1 board had pre
dicted, the disease was found in one of the ten?'
ment dwellings of the sixth ward, a building which
shelters a'hundred families. The victim ia a wo
man of about 30 years of age, and dwelt at No. 117
Mulherry-atceot... She was. attacked by the pre
monitory diarrhoea d?" Tuesday night, and next
morning Dr. Gome* was summoned. He reached
the patient before three o'clock in the afternoon.
After eondlng for the requisito medicines, ho im
mediately ? notified the board of health, and Dr.
patton at once sent sanitary inspectors to tho
place. Dr. Harris' accompanied the inspectors,
and examined. the pationt and evidence in the
case, and found it to be a marked case of cholera.
At elt^ht o'clock 6n Wednesday evening tho woman
was in the last stago of the disease, and there
was no hope of her recovery.-Raltimore Sun of

INCENDIAS Y F?B?S AT PETES SBUBO, VA.-There
ia considerable excitement at Petersburg Va., on
account of incendiary Area. At two o'olock on
Tuesday morning, the Snnday 8ohool building at
tached > to-the Union. Street Methodist (colored)
Church was set on fire and consumed. A few
hours after, tho Harrison Street Baptist (colored)
Church was tired, and entirely destroyed. It was
a large brick building, or?ctod in I860, at a cost
of ii5,000, and was not insured, the policy having
run oat two days previous. While this fire waa
raging another colored church near by was set on
fire, but the flames were promptly suppressed.
Bat for the aotivity of the firemen, several of
whom were badly injured in their efforts to stay
the flames, the destruction of property would have
been greater. The city council has promptly offer?
ed a reward of $5000 for the Arrest and conviction
'of trie incendiaries. The Petersburg papare and
citizens generally call for the prompt and se
vere punishment of the guilty miscreants. The
Index Bays: j ' . . "
Nothing has ever transpired in Petersburg which
has so profoundly agitatod and incons'od her peo

ave(besrd, an unbroken cpmrrent of rogrot and
indignation that there - could have been found,
within the limite of Petersburg, one heart BO pro

oar colored people; and there is a disposition
equally widespread to take every possible means

Correspondence.
The following correspondence explains itself:
CHARLESTON, S. C, April 27, 1866.
Hon. Hugh McCuUoch,
Secretary Treasury, Washington, D. C.
DEAR SIB :-I havo boen requested to ascertain
from the Department, whether property-holders
wko bave not paid the United States War Tax on
real estate for the year 1864, will be required to
do so-some persons having declined, for tho rea
son that the State has already, by an official error,
over-paid her quota of the tax aforesaid, as well as
on the strength of a report that you recently au
thorized Mr. TBESCOT (our State Agent in Wash
ington) to " tell his peoplo not to pay any more of
that tax," since, if once covered into the Treasury,
the money could not be refunded.
Tneeo parties would be glad to havo more defi
nite instructions as to the risk tbey run of being
sold out, and on tbe receipt of euch as you may
doom proper to transmit through my hands, I
will publish the same in the papers here for the
information of all concerned.
With great respect,
It. I. MIDDLETON, Jr.
TBEASOBY DEPARTMENT, Hay 2d, 16*66.
DEAR SIR :-Your favor of the 27th ult. is re
ceived. All I can do for the relief of the people of
South Carolina in regard to the Direot Tax, has
already been done. All sales for taxes have been
suspended until Congress should have an oppor
tunity of acting definitely upon the subject. I
have no power to withdraw too Tax Commission
ers, nor to suspend the collection of taxes from
those who aro able to poy them. What action
Congress will take upon tho subject cannot now
bo determined.
I did not say to Mr. TBESCOT that the Direct Tax
was not to be paid, but merely said to him what I
now say to you, that I deemed it to be proper, in
tbe peculiar circumstance? of the Southern peo
ple, to suspend all Bales of property for Direct
Taxes until there had been ampio opportunity for
a full consideration of tho subject by Congress,
Beyond this, I have no authority to go.

Outrages by t fi? Military in Anderson Dli
. " - I o ?riot.
In the Anderson InteRigencer of the 3d instant
wo find tho following :' ?
The arrival of a cavalry detaohment in this vi
cinity1 was chronicled iii our last-issue, and it is
with pain and Borrow that wo have now to record
unprovoked and gross 'Outrages committed by
members of-that detachment du rim/their first
week's sojourn amongst us. The vi o tims, too, to
these unnecessary and causeless assaults are un
oflonding women and innocent.children.
Qu Wednesday night last, shortly, after ten
o'olock, two cavalry soldiers entered f ne house of
Mr. H. A, Vandiver, on Msin-street, and under
tho influence o? liquor, insulted and annoy ed the
inmates of the residence, notwithstanding the
earnost remonstrances of Mr. Vandiver against
their, unauthorized conduot. ' Not content with
frightening the, ladies bV, words, BO as to drive
then) from the house, these infuriated men had
the brutality and flenchabness to discharge their
pistols'it the timid females who were thus placed
at the mercy of men who recognized no principles
of honor or manhood.. Mr. V. waa also fired upon.
Ho was unarmed, and Bought assistance from his
neighbors. During his abspneo, the soldiers had
fu]l sway of the house, Sod before he returned
they had made their exit. We.aro ploasod to ?t&to
that Major Stone, when informed' of the occur
rence, went immediately to the scene, and follow
ing the soldiers, identified them sufficiently to
eauee their arrest the next morning hythe officers
of.thoir oomm.and. So far as we know; they are
St id duranco for their shameful and outrageous
nduot. --o ?? ...-,?.? i
? The second Instance of reckless behavior, we
leair?, occurred at the house of Mrs. Jolly, five or
six mile? north of the village, on Thurad-y night,
wo belle ve. A squad of men was sent? there to
arrest M. 8. Jolly, who, as is well known, stands
in an unenviable light-with1 the military.. Upon
demaudjug admittance', iho abuse was opened, as
had been done a ecoro or moro. times oa ?imilor
occasions.? Immediately March oommonood for.
Mr, Colly .but feulioj, to find bim,oriioloa of value be
longing to hi?sister and mothor were taken',among
which are inolndeda a gold watch, and email pocket
pistol. Both Mrs. Jolly, and her! .daughter ' were
treated in a rongh mariner by the soUTiera, tho
former declaring that, out of the numerous de
taohmonta which have searched for her son, this
has bohaved the most indecorous, to speak mildly.
Wo have not heard, at this writing, that any. no
tice baa been taken of this affair : by the officors,
nor do we know that the matter has beon report
ed to them directly. . .
We repeat an unfeigned regret that these things
should have occurred, but it is our duty to declare
the facts as we have heard them stated by the
parties upon whom these indignities were placed,
andjeave their adjudication .to competent au
p$m? .CDS t- y"

Excellent? plaiq-speaking, practical Bishop An
drew, one of the venerable ministers of the Me
thodist Church in this country, has been making
another sensible speech in Conference, .' On
Saturday, he said he desired to make a few re
marks before the adjournment of the Conference
foi the. day. And then ho went oh to say that he
did not know whether It was true or not. ' He
knew that ?bout this period there is a great pro
pensity to leave tho Oonforenco. Thinge do not
go just to suit all, but lu hoped they would BO t a
Ott er. example than :. by leaving until the proper
time coin?s. You havo come here, ho added, at a
groat expense, tho moat of yon, and the country
aro looking to you with a great deal of interest
for irriportant resulto. Ton had better stay from
home a few days longer, than: to leave any im
portant work unfinished. If you leave anything
undone, it most remain undone for the next four
years, and the church is somuoh injurod. Stay
until your work is, done. Do not run off. The
eyes of this community and the eyes of the church
are upon Us.< i Important interests depend-upon
your futuro action., You owe it to God, you owe it
to the church, you owe it to your reputation and
conscience, ta stay and do your work, to stay until
your work ia accomplished.. He loved home (he
said) as much, as any body, but had beon very
little at home since last Oatober. He had just re
turned'from atrip to Baltimore When ho carno
here, and had boon about throo months from
home. But'it was his intention to stay hore until
the voice of 'duty told him to go away, and he
hoped all would do the same. .*? .'

There havo boon so many cases of conflict of

and growing oat of a misapprehension of'the
peace proclamation, that it was deemed advisable
to issue an order declaratory of the effeot of the
proclamation its to the powers and fondions of
Military Commissions, and more particularly
sotting forth the intention .of the Administration
to recognize tho restoration of the proper civil
authorities. In our dispatches during the past
two days wo have, in a semi-official form, antici
pated tho order now issued, and which it is believ
ed will put an end to further conflict? batwoun the
military and civil authorities, unless thor o shall
yet be doubts as to the effect of tho proclamation
ia the matter of rouoring tho writ of habeas

amount of this gold bolonging absolutely to the
Treasury is $07,010,000; the amount belonging to
depositors, $9,036,000. The present monthly ex
hibit is the most encouraging yet mado for the
early reduction of the public debt to $2,000.000 to
bear interest and the bill introduced in the Senate
to-day by Mr. Sherman, approved by tho admin
istration of the Treasury, looks to the consolida
tion of all classes of this interest-bearing debt to
the uniform rate of 5 per cent, in gold; in other
words, to the introduction of United States 5 per
cent, consols, having thirty years to run, and to
bo ultimately extinguished by the sinking fund of
1 por cent, a year saved in the difference Detween
6 and 5 per cent. The whole r?duction nineo last
summer, when the war debt reached its maxi
mum, ia now $68,092,000

tenders due and paid off, $2,500,000. In compound
