[So now, in tmatter of the less exciting controversy abcto liegin in the New-York Custom-house,announces his intention of Banking no «-ham:in the various offloea until the Commission hmade its examination and its report. It isthis simple way that the President carries tIH-ople with him as he does. Thi* reasons a

three important lines under a new contrawhich lleniy IMggfl has obtained from tl(¡ou minent. It is the policy of Peru to col
vett a portion of her accidental wealth inthe imperishable sources of national s-reataeiand she lias already found the rnilio:idsneetnl in uniting her people and streuet hcniithe Government that she proposes to go <
with the constrm tion of this «lass of pullie works until the whole territory is snppliiDoubtless her action will have a Mimttlaiiiieffect opon nations in otlier quintéis of tliv'hibe. It certainly will be a hem lit to certa iindustries in tins country. One feature <
Mcigga'a new contract is a peculiar one. IIis to develop the Ceno de Pasco silver mineIf what rumor says of the richness of the*mines proves to be true, an immense qianiitof nn tal will be taken from them in the ne?

There is no reason to suppose that MaysEly will lend himself to any scheme of thTammany politicians for securing control o
the Police Board, or for frightening th<- Legitlature from the passage of Befoani bills wit!tin threat <>f giving the.conduct of the eleetimis into the hands of a Democratic Bonn]Mr. Ely knows the nature of the compact between the people of this city and himself, anthe is n«>t likely to put any Mich affront npoithem. We advise tit«- Legislature not to scarnt ¡ill. The Tammany politicians knoti'ill well that th-;-' would lone nioii
than they would gain by converting tinPolice I5«»ar«l into a partisan commis.ion. Atontiaged public opinion would soon tendthem ih«1 folly of their course. If they an
making such threats, it is merely an aitempat polit] ni blackmail, anil ought i«> be treat«like all other attempts at blackmail, in th«mean time, if Mr. Ely is stiil hunting abonifor a Republican in puce of Mr. Erbnrdt, it i:worthy of note thai Mr. Erhard! himself la, iithe opinion oi both his Democratic and Re¬publican colleague*-, about the best man thaicould he Darned.

It is supposed that Ihtseo, in Moldavia, willl>e tin- headquarters of the Russian army gfteiit has «rosse«! the Pruth. In this respeel thestrategy t»f the opening campaign resembleatii;i of 1 *."»:>, when the sanie point was BO-
lectcd. Important changes will, however, bemade m order to turn the Roumanian railwaytn account. Tliot convenient road with itsconnecting lines eatablisbea direct communica¬tion U'tween Odessa, Kiacheneff, .Jas*y, ntulGuergevo, an Important point on the Danube,facing Silistna, whence runs tlie main road to
Shiimla, one of the keys to Constantinople.Witi: these railroad facilities at her commandUiissia will be itnpelletl, both «>n political amimilitary grounds, to avoid the tardy move¬ments made iu the last war. Tlie occupationof ltonmania WBB then a formidable threat;but tue province is now little mor«- than Russianti rritory, oa ning tin- nominal sown ignty of tbePorte. In June, 1853, the Russians enteredthat province, ami snpposing Turkey wouldyield they did nothing until January, isr»4,when they invested Kalafat, which the Turkshad prudently seized. Toward the end ofMarch the war began on a grand scale by theRussians crossing the Danube and occupyingthe Turkish province of the Dobnulja, groundTrajan's Wall, l'art of the army besiegedSdistna, but it was compelled to retreat inJune, after heavy fighting. Some months laterthe Rusaians withdrew from the Danube andconcentrated their foret s in the Crimea, wherethe war was decided. Profiting by the blundersof that conflict, the Russians ore now likely toadvance quickly and amate the Turks by theircelerity as well as their force.
THS I AST AJ T.The drama in New-Orleans is moving rapidly
to its conclusion. The curtain was rung upfor the laKt act on Wednesday, when, afterplot and counterplot had been laid bare, andbargains had been balled, ami the bottom hadfallen out of a great many curious sein nus,
the characters began to assemble and groupthemselves upon the scene for the finalsettlement of everything. We all fore¬saw the denouement, and the proclamationwith which President Hayes now takes hispart in the performance was anticipated withas much assurance as the wedding that windsup the coanedy or the thrilling escape thatfoi ¡us the climax of the melodrama. Mr.Packard's legislators foresaw it when they ran
for the friendly shelter of the DemocraticState House ; eminent statesmen of his partyforesaw it when they vowed that they never,never would desert «Nov. Packard, and thenproceeded to load up with state stocka pre¬paratory to going over to the otlier side. Theonly anxiety of Mi. Packard's followers dur¬ing the past two or three days seems to havebeen to make as showy an exit as the dream-stances would permití and to carry off a shareol the r«-ceipts ¡it the box-offlce.
Instead tlu refine of falling away ipimtly anddecorously, BB the public expected it to do. thePackard organisation bus been trying to blowitself up. Mr. Puekard ¡n-.s been inajsUiig thatth« President shall poll him out of the Qov-ernor's chair by for««-, before be i* obliged tofall out ; and tue guards al the door of theState House Legislature an- reported to haveheld "tlie boys" fog some time in durance
'at the first ajmploBss of desertion. Therewire viol-nt scenes in the caucus, niidproeeedtogg which are described as "mu-.. tin.uis" in th«- lions«-. The bounding Beebe,in the last hours ot ihe M.l\ th Congrega, has¦ejeaj popularly regarded as tin- inn.a eompleteembodiment of legislative tumult; but therew« N jM-ríoimames in N't w-'Mh ans th«' otlierday which might almost i.ui.sc Beebe to befoiK'itten.Then came an exciting episode in th«-. form

GOT. BAMPTOS o.v ¡¡BOBO 8UFFBAQB.Got. Wade Hampton talks, .since he es-
cured recognition ss Oovornot and en*tend upon the uiTiiiistir.ctod diachsrge of tinduties of his oftiee, very much as he did din-
tug the pendency of Ibe dispute ami while bewas nsing bis utmost endeavors to secure theconfidence and good will of the people. Hereiterates his determination to secure, BO for as
hie efforts can sccontpliah it, equal and exact
justice for all (iti/eiis, of whatever color, raes.or party, and he n-alliiin.s the pledges to up¬hold and sustain the colored citi/i-ns inull their nghts. In n speech made on
Thursday at Charleston! to aa audience inwhich there wen- many colored Republicans,he took occasion to assnre them that they hadnothing to leu from his administistion ; thaiso for from being in favor of depriving themof tin- rlghl to vulo, be was one ol tin- earliestadvocates of the ineasBra which gave themthe SUBTSge, and still approves it. Heel,limedindi-i d tn be more Bineere in his supportof negro soiTrage than many BepnbUcanswin» originally adv. rated it but are disap¬pointed in it- results and would like to be ¡idof it. Deferring to his position on this qnes*tion, be Said :
" I was the lirst man in AmillHJS''certainly tin lirst iu the Booth.who advo-"t...'¡il tlie granting of the right t<» v(,t,- to
"tho eolond man. That U ob record. Only"ii few days SgO 1 SSW m Tut: Ksw-YOBB" Tbibvbs a ststsssent made by iu Editor" Whin -law Heitl, that in l^io"» I toldhfas that.' the NortbeiH Republicans would want to"take away tin» right oí rottng froaj t¡..Mcolored psople Itssg before the South ever"would. Duiinyr the late canvass I BBSda a" prediction that Ihe colored people, would" veiy simib lind that the only protection they" bad for their elective faacMba would be
" from the white nun of the South. Ynu will" live to BBS it."
In illustration of this remark he relut« d thatwhen in Washington recently he was acttiallyconsull«d by live or six prominent Keptib-licaiis as t<» how the colored vote c«>uhl bestbe restricted. His answer was: "Wo don't" want the vote of the colored man taken
"away or restricted, for, aside from tht.Mfriendship we bear this race, their right to
"vote gives us thirty more votes in Comrress,
j "and when p«ace comes we are satisfied that" the best men in both races and parties will" vole togetbef f«>r the Coiniiii.nwialth. Wo"don't want to take that light away." He
desired to see the colored jM-ople educated,ami he renewed the pledges heretofore madelo give the colored people bettet facilitiesfor education than they have hitherto en¬
joyed. His inthience, he said, should be
exerted to lee to it that the means of edu-cation should be pland within the reach ofevery citizen of South Caiolina, white or black,native or foreign born. The duty of Selectingthe bet men fur ollice, and especially of send-ing such men to the Legi lature, was urgedujion his bearers, and the colored men' were
earnestly exhorted to forget all about politiesami the hitler controversy through which theState had just jtass'd, and go to work intelli¬gently and lesolnlely to build up the Wast«'
jihie«-s and bring back peat «. and prosperity to
the community« As Governor <>f the Mate he
asked them to hold up his hands and givehim their sympathy ami support so long as
they wen- sali-lied he was trying to djO right.The temper of ihe address was admirable
throughout. Its effect cannot in- otlier Ihangood upon ail «lasses of people iu tlie State.It may be thai the Governor takes altogethertoo ins: -colored a view of the situation : we
think he does. As 'fill'. Tlill'.i'M: has hereto¬fore pointed ont. In- basan exceedingly difficulttask before him to preserve order and stay th«;Violence oí the lawless, so long BCCUStOmcd to
making Itself felt opon the blacks. The blacksthcnisi-Ive.s an- no! unlikely to furnish provo¬cations, and it is the moat natural thing in Iheworld loi differences on the color lim- to taketh«- form oi political divisions. The Governordoes well to express anew his determinationto bring about an era of reconciliation amigood fueling. lb' is no doubt entirely sincerein il, as an- his supporters, who ai«- now in the
enjoyment of their hard-earned suces*,
and consequently in a z od-natured frame ofmind. The danger of collisions and civil dis¬turbances wloi-h may ««-suit in Injustice t» thecolored «-iii/ns will come later, when tlie pres¬
ent feeling of satisfaction has somewhat worn
off, However that may be, (!uv, Hamilton'spresent utterances must have the good effectol aasuring tbe colored people of his friendshipand regard, and of litvin:.' notice to the whiteswho mighl otherwise be tempted t-> Imposeupon the negroes thai tim power of the Exec¬utive is pledged to defend all the rights of thehumblest citizen. The Governor's attitude isflank, out-pökelt, ami manly, and commandsthe respect even of his opponents, only thosewho lind their profil iu tin- perpetuation ofdisorder will withhold from him their heartys\ nipathy and support.
TRADING si..lis ix COXORE8S.Can anybody tell us who owns the Vth Con-
greisiong] District of the State of New-York 1Is it Mr. Nicholas Midler? Or is it Mr. DavidDudl.y Field 1 Oi is it Mr. Samuel J. Tilden 1These are questions of some importance, per¬haps, to tin- 20,000-odd voters constitutingthat district, ami who may object to beinggiven, granted, bargained, sold, and conveyedby Mr. Nicholas Müller to Mr. David DudleyField, in accordance with the wishes of Gov.Tilden. It is hinted thai Mr. Müller, after se¬
curing his election to the HottM of Ihpre-Bentatives, finds tiiat he doesn't care for a seat,since it would cost him $7,000 or ."-¡s,(Mill a
year which In- now receives from the ErieRailway Company. This feeling is increased,it is said, by the In-I thai Mr. Millier, like theman iu the play. " has had losers.'' Greatly toIns credit, we are willing to add, he does not
propone to make them up by selling bimsellas n Representative.Hut if Mr. Müller intends to resign, why
doe* In- not communicate that fact directly tohis constituents, instead of making arrange¬ments with Mr. David Dudley Field and theHon. Mr. Tilden .' Who ever before heard ofa Member ot Congress rraignlng m favor ofanother man ISo far upon the presumption that Mr. Müller
is ready to make way for a new man, and to
drive a burgain with him. only it appears, ac¬
cording to th«- latest advices, that he deniesthe Story. This will be bad news for Mr.David Dadley Field, and quite mortifying toGov. Tilden. Il the little game should come
to nought, ami if Mr. Midler should obsti¬nately refuse to make room for Mr. DavidDudley Field, in what way will that gentle*man be able to serve his beloved land î Andif iu no way, what will th«- beloved land dowithout him T Not wog ago in certain qnar-ters there seemed to be, somehow, an impres¬sion ihat the perpetuity of the United states ofAmérica depended upon the doings of Mr.David Dudhy Fi« hi. Possibly .th«' nationalprosperity depends upon his securing Mr.Nicholas Mullet's seat. Hut if Mr. NicholasMullet- should refus«! to give it up I Let us
