It is not probable there will be any divergence of views between the President and Con gress on this mutter. OFFICERS OF THE HOUSE. It is now considered certain that Speaker ilfax and Clerk McPherson, of the House T Representatives, will be renominated by acclamation in the Cnion caucuses on Saturday night, and on Monday will be re-elected immediately alter roll call bv the full party majority.

Ingram, of Mass., late Provost Marshal in this city. cneral Ingram is running as a Massachu setts man, but does not seem to have the full support of his own delegation; The be lief here among old heads is that the pres ent incumbent bus the insido track. For doorkeeper, Captain Good, now of New 1 ork, the present incumbent, and Haw kins Taylor, of Iowa, the defeated candi date of two years ago, are contestants. In this case the contest is supposed to be close. For Postmaster, Mr. Win. S. King, of Minnesot,!the present incumbent; Daniels of Wisconsin ; Berry, of New Jersey ; and Messrs.

Wilkes Booth, in terests the public, I cannot refrain from relating something I hcarirtibout him yes terday. 1 will tell it in the words of my informant, an amateur dramatist, who knew Booth long and intimately. "About four hours before tho murder of the President," said Mr. to me, "I met Booth near the Metropolitan Hotel. took him one side to speak to him, and found him as calm, cool and collected as ever I had known him in my life. I told him that I had a play that 1 wanted to put on the stage, and that Grovcr had agreed to put it on it 1 could get some one to piay the leading character. 'You can study it ia a few hours,' said I, 'and I'll divide the profits with you.' Booth stroked his chin, p pea red to think a moment, ana repneu . am in tne oil business now, ana j. uoii v nnt to give that up till I make some thing at it.' Oh,' said I, 'you might do this for nie, just to start it for me. It rill only take you a weeK, ana men ou can co back to the oil business again. He hesitated as if to consider the subject, and then inquired the nature of the ply I told hin the leading incident in it was an attempt to escape from Castle Thunder, and there was a little love and a little war mixed up in it At this he be came suddenly angry. 'Damn it,' said he, you ought to be in better business than seeking to inflame the passions of the northern people aeainst the south. Of course, if it's played here, the north will have to be the hero, i won i nave any thing to do with it.' I then tried to soothe him, as he appeared to become very indig nant at me, all in a sudden. I told him we needn't quarrel about such a thing, and asked him to come to the Metropolitan and take a drink with mo. But he de clined. He saidlihat he had an engagement that he must fill riirlit away, and he started up the avenue, as it appears from the tes timony since taken, to Mrs. Surratt's, to complete tne arrangements ior me mur der of Lincoln and the cabinet.

ENGLAND AND THE FREEDMEN. Address of Rev. Sella Martin—England's Charity Begins and Stays at Home—The Queen is Kind but Has no Money. [From the News York Times, Nov. 27.] Rev. Sella Martin, the eloquent pastor of Shiloh Presbyterian Church has recent ly returned from an English mission in behalf of the freedmen ol the South. A large and attentive audience assembled to greet Mr. Martin on bis reappearance in his pulpit, and, after the usual introductory services, he spoke substantially as follows: SPEECH OF REV. SELLA MARTIN. Wrben I went abroad I expected to be gone three or four months, but the srreat in terest felt there in the general Parliamen tary election interferred with mv purpose of holding puplic meeetings, as all our friends were occupied in political matters. Alter a brief visit to Scotland and through the kindness of friends, I made the ac quaintance of the favorite Chaplain of,'.e PfljWeroao.e. I went to Bal moral and saw tho Queen, who gave no money for political reasons, although she spoke kinds words about the freedmen,and her Secretarv. Colonel Thipps, promised that, if possible, something should be done. n Birmingham we had an immense meet ing, commencing at a brcaKtasi m tne morning ; at night some 5.000 people at- tendwi and raised 1,400. At Bristol we were equally successful pecuniarily. On the 23d of October I attended the Congre gational Union, and through the aid of Dr. Binnev a vote ot recommendation was passed thatallConeregational churches should take up a collection which must equal fifty thousand dollars. England has given since 1842 something like $300, 00U, and this with only fitful efforts. There now a .National freedmen s com mittee, which takes the responsibility of the movement there. England has the most supreme contempt for anyono who thinks he knows as much as she. The people there said tlmt they freed their laves and paid tor them, and wanted to know why we didn't. Xo reply of ours could of course satisfy them. Then Eng land is lealous of America, in whose lu- ture she sees grander days than can ever be lived by them. I think the higher classes there would even now be glad if we were divided; the lower classes have feel ings quite the reverse. And these jeal ousies were carried into our freedmen s matter. They said, "If you knew these negroes were to be freed, why didn't vou prepare for their new condition?" An other difficulty was the uneradicable love of classes in England. The poor people there like it and are proud of the class distinctions. We never could get up a meeting without a figure-head, such as a Duke or a Provost or some great man like Jlill or Hughes. It wasn t alwavs easy to do this. These difficulties will always be set our movement until England's egotism can become our champion. There's no use in talking about it; we can do no more in England; and unless we can reach the Presbyterian Church in Scotland, tnink tne contributions are about ended. It's by no means a fitting answer this 00,000 to the 250,000 we sent to Ireland and the $75,000 we sent to Lancashire. It s all because we fail to get the names requisite. If the Queen would give 10. would tie worth tens ot thousands ol pounds. Some people say tho negroes are not suffering as much as has been stated. In the great camps and districts there is very ereat amount of suffering. And oi ll people the colored people should not ndiQcrcnt to this state ot things, in regard to negro suffrage, I want here to say that I by no means object to property or educational qualifications, provided it is demanded of all men. I feel, however, rtiat tiro uvu-avuon OT Ullinw yxntjtrv n more a misfortune than a fault, and hen we are more thoroughly inlormed, we shall doubtless do more, do better by our suffering brethren at the South. SPEECH OF REV. SELLA MARTIN. A Reminiscence of a Reconstructed Rebel. Martin J. Crawford, of Georgia, the telegraph informs us, is waiting daily at the presidential mansion, beseeching a pardon. At the time of the memorable contest for Speaker of the House, which resulted in the election oi uovernor j-ch- ington, after a protracted struggle of sev eral mouths, this Martin J. Crawford was member from Georgia, on tne nrst aay of the session, after the first ballot, and while Thad. Stevens had the noor, crav,- rd interrupted the proceedings in a most disorderly manner. He worked himself into a fearful passion, dancea aown tne aisles, gesticulating violently until ho came in front of Stevens, shook his fists at the fearless old Pennsvlvanian, menacing ly exclaimed " we will have our rights ! ' repeal your personal liberty laws ! etc., is evident intention being to strike Mr. Stevens. He was backed up by nearly an the Southern members, who closed in be hind him, anxious for a row, and especial ly desirous to put Thad. Stevens aown. The latter, however, did not stand alone. Behind him, in a compact array, stood Owen Lovejoy, William Millward, and a large number of other Northern members, all of them men of large frame and deter mined will ; and as the puny Southerners took care to survey this wall of muscle before attempting to lay a hand on Mr. Stevens, they concluded it woman t pay. and the more discreet of them led Craw ford off. fuming and fretting, and still olamoroiiH for his " rights." He was, of course, one of the first of tho conspirators in bringing on the rebellion, nd ono ol tne Dilteresi in carryinir it on. Ho bu. not vet. it seems, tound the rights " he was so diligently in search ol. The Sandusky Register of yesterday has the following items: An old citizen of Fremont was knocked down in that town last i riday afternoon and robbed of four hundred dollars. 1 nree of the villains instigated in the crime, were arrested and lodged in jail. Five hundred cords of wood, belongin to the Sandusky, Dayton, and Cincinnati Ra lroad. burned up, day before yesteruay between West Liberty and Urbana. One ni"ht last week a couple of high waymen attempted to rob Mr. i.liam Hendriek. of Ottawa county, when with- .. ' e i " ' I r . V, . in a milo or so oi r.nnore. vne ui iiu villains caught the horse and held him, while the other aimed a blow witn elub at Mr. Hendrick s ncad. Mr. rti- rlrii-k warded off the blow and stTuck the villain with the butt of his whip, which star cered him. and the horse made a lunge at the same time and disengaged h msr f from the otner, ana -sir. n. es caped. A number of villains entered the resi dence of Mr. George W. Fish, of Clyde, one night last week, when all the family woro ahseni. except a coupie oi iur. i i.-u a daughters and a female friend, ine u-niinrire u built a nre in me aucueii, umuo coffee and set a regular supper and then mudn a p-encral search of the premises. After rummaging the entire house, they attempted to pick the lock of the room in whii-h tne voung tne voung lauieo tm sleeping, but having heard their opera tions in the kitchen, the ladies were up, and having the key on the inside, held it fst when thev attempted to clamp it wun an instrument from the outside, and bav in" barricaded the door well, resisted their attack. The villains finally gave up in despair and left the premises. The Episcopal General Conventiop In Philadelphia were very zealous and fra ternal in trying to prove that the rebel lious Bishop Wilmer, of Alabama, was not a foreign BUhop. The late council of Southern dioceses held at Augusta, Ga., thought otherwise. It was affirmed that Wilmer was, and still is, a foreign Bishop, having been consecrated while the de facto Confederate Government was in power and was therefore under no obligations to pray for the President of the United States. LATE NEWS ITEMS. Senator Wilson, of Massachusetts, has signed and filed a petition for the pardon of Mallory, the rebel Secrotary of the INavy. The corresponded of the Boston Adter tiier was lately driven out of Albany, Georgia, and the excitement ran so high that a company of thirty United States soldiers were powerless to resist it. . The Virginia Legislature, which is to meet in a few days, will try to abrogate the Alexandria Constitution, so as to get rid of the few L mon members of their own body. An interesting insurance case was de cided in Pittsburgh on Saturday. D. Fawcett & Co.. brewers, brought an action against the J ittsburgh Insurance Com pany to recover $1,000, the amount of two policies taken out by plaintiffs on a quan tity of barley.- stored in the warehouse of Morse tv Leavitt, at Lima, Ohio, which was destroyed by fire on the night of the -'1st ot April, 18b4. 1 he plaintiffs claimed that thev bad upward of 0,000 bushels of hrc, the value of wnicn was iuny equal to the amount insured, wnue tne aeienaants alleged that I1-" .fl"l(MI'lt , Wtft ""' refused to cancel the claim. A large mass of testimony was heard on both sides as to the quality of barlev destroyed, and on Saturday the jury brought in a verdict for plaintiffs tor $3,0jU 70. Manners in Royal Style. " Rascally sweet young Prince," as Ed ward of England is called, it seems that he sometimes acts as graciously and rude- y as the other Prince of W ales, wno was given to consorting witn iat Knignis, thieves and swash-bucklers. The heir prospective to the throne of Great Britain, and his young wife, have been paying a visit to Liverpool, where they were re ceived with duo honor and coromony. On ading at the quay the mayor of the city offered his services to escort Mrs. Wales to lies-carriage, service which the English papers say was " graciously accepted." It then became necessary that the "hope and fair expectancy of State" should act as escort to Mrs. Mavor. This he did with such a sauntering, hick-a-diasical air, not ottering her his arm or even keeping lose bv her side, that the f-nglish news papers, obsequious as they usually are to royalty, felt themselves bound to give the young man ft talking to for what in any body hut a Prince would have been con- lder.-d a piece ot rudeness. General Scott. Gen. Scott, old, feeble and gouty, to day walked from tho Fifth Avenue Hotel down Broadway to the Metropolitan, to lsit Gen. Grant. X he old veteran is very feeble, and walks with a shambling air that is painful to look upon. 11a is sufler- ng very much from gout, ana to-day nas been the first time that he has been able get about since his return from the West Point examination. Whuecrossing tho street to reach the hotel, crowded Broadway paid him a singular and hand some tribute. The drivers of the omni buses, wagons, carriages, &a, wliich at all hours block up Broadway, as if simulta neously inspired with tho same feeling of respect for the old hero, stopped in their wild race, and a wide margin of street between the lino of coaches was left open for him to cross in, while the usually noisy rivers kept respectful silence, lhe Gen eral occupied some time in crossing the treet. and the consequence was a jam, which the police were several minutes in disentangling."

Also to the fact that while the French occupy Ouayamas Mazatlan and Acunulca, the Liberals have the control of affairs inland, so that between the opposing forces commuuication is cut off. Nahhvillk.

Grant is understood to favor the mustering out of all Volunteers, and such additions to all the arms of the service as would make the nom inal strength of the Regular Army about 75,000. Too little attention haa heretofore been paid to the Cavalry in times of peace, and some new measures for recruiting and drilling this arm of the service may also be recommended. The abandonmeut of the depots of Gov ernment supplies in the Southern States, consequent upon the gradual withdrawal of troops, has caused Gen.

The freedmen's bureau has information that a collection of persons in Mobile is try ing to underbid negro labor by agreeing to furnish German emigrants just off the ship at lower wages than a negro could subsist on.

The nerald's Charleston correspondence of the 25th says : The assumption of the com mand of the Department of South Carolina by General Sickles, as successor to General Gilmore, took-the people by surprise, they being inclined to think that it indicated tne displeasure of the government at their short comings in the work of reconstruction, and a proposal ot the government to re-estaousa martial law, and can anotner session oi me State Convention. The people were in great excitement General Sickles has removed the depart ment headquarters to Charleston. Only meagre returns oi tne election ior Congressmen had been received, but ex Governor Aiken has been chosen in the Sec ond District, which includes the city of Charleston. That is regarded as a defeat of the secessionists. There had also been in session in Charles ton a convention of the colored people of the State, whose proceedings were marked by a great display of ability and decorum. Their resolutions strongly disavowed any insurrec tionary designs or feelings of enmity to wards their former masters, and declare their only object to be the improvement and elevation of their race.
