THE TRIE ORIGIN" OF TDK CONVRSTION PLOT, j There is not an honest or intelligent citiacu at ail acquainted with the charac- j tors und antecedents of the main instiga- 1 tors of tho revolutionary and incendiary plot winch produced the terrible scenes of i yesterday who does not know that the real and controlling motive of these reckless' and unprincipled men was to regain offices and patronage which they had lost since the close of the war, and by means of which thev had rained themselves from |?overty and obscurity to comparative wealth and partisan notoriety. It should not he imagined for a moment that they , were of the class of honest lunatics, sin. cere believers in any of the doctrines or ideas advocated by them; tliut they had j ever before manifested any honest sympa- ' thv or concern tor the freedmen. The few j in our city who have some claims to con- , "latency and sincerity in such ideas and feelings had no part in tins scheme. The leading actors were men who before the I war w ere of utter insignificance, and would | never have emerged therefrom in any j peaceful, respectable community. Many of them were renegades from the Confederate cause. During the excitement of the war they managed to get the most lucrative offices of the State and city, and the Convention of Im'.I was a prolific source of profit to them. The Sheriffalty of New Orleans, the State Auditors, the .Clerkof the Second District Court, (one of the most lucrative oilices in the State,) Public Printer, Kegister of Votes, etc., had all been appropriated by the parties, who, having been displaced from these oftiees on the retnm of peace,?displaced by their own Union friends,?immediately became very much dissatisfied w ith the progress of affairs, and have ever since kept up an incessant agitation about the violence of the rebels and the wrongs of the poor negro. The violence and wrongs which really troubled them were their exclusion from office and their return to their normal state of merited obscurity. This whole Convention revival scheme was got up by these men. It had not the support of five hundred white men in the city or State. Unfortunately, however, the glib and hypocritical demagogues sue. reeded in making a number of the poor, deluded, unsophisticated freedmen belicve that they were their friends, and that it was in their behalf and defence that this plot was conceived and was to he carried out.

('<>rre*|H>ndem-<- of the Unit I wore Sun. The New Orleans Massacre-The Truth Coming Out-Opinions of General Sheridan Washington, August 5. The Radical press lay much stress upon General Sheridan's last dispatches to General Grant, as settling the proposition that all the blame for the inauguration of the late riots at New Orleans rests upon Mayor Monroe and certain ex-rebels. I have been permitted to read the last dispatches from General Sheridan, and I am enabled to say that they do not establish any such proposition. General Sheridan gives a more extended account of what he believes to be the facts than he gave in his dispatch of the 1st instant, of which I sent you a copy. He does not in the late dispatches review nor scarcely refer to the conventioners and their conduct, but he gives a more detailed statement of the reported behavior of the police and Mayor Munroe, whom he styles "that bad man." and whose removal he recommends. But General Sheridan does not take back nor modify in the least his estimate of the character of the usurpers who provoked the disturbances, and who are responsible for the murders and bloodshed that took plare on the 30th of July. One thing comes out clearly in the dispatches received here by the President and General Grant, and that is, that whatever may be said of the conduct of those engaged in this deplorable occurrence, the " ex-rebels " were lighting to maintain the authority recognized by the Government and Congress. It should he borne in mind, however, that thus far we have received nothing but opinions from General Sheridan, formed upon hearsay testimony, not given under the solemnity of an oath. An official, and, it is hoped, an impartial investigation, is now going on, and in a fewdays we shall have the history of the whole affair in an authentic form. Charles O'Conor, counsel for Jell'. Davis, was here yesterday, and had a brief interview with the President last evening. What was the exact purpose of the interview has not transpired. i have authority for saying that as soon as the President is otlieially informed of the organization of the Throckmorton ud- ! ministration in Texas he will direct the same steps to he taken as were taken in the transfer of the provisional governments of the other States. A proclamation declaring that Texas has resumed her " practical relations" tothcl.'uion may he looked for on Tuesday or Wednesday next. Executive Nomination*?Opinion of tlie Attorney-General. Social tlifpatch totbe Evening Pot>t. Washington, August 3.?Attorney-Ge-neral Stanhery has given an opinion that j the nominations lor public offices rejected during the session of the Senate can be legally made by the President during the recess. Hence the wholesale removals at Philadelphia yesterday. i'eiiiifcylvniila Politic*. I'm lai>ki.1'1iia, August A.?The Press of to-day publishes a sarcastic letter from one William P. Johnston, spurning his nomination as collector of this port, and much abusing the President and his policy. The explanation is, that the commission to William P. Johnston, of Pittsburg, was misdirected, aud fell into the hands of a " radical" Union man of the same name i;- this city, who would not neglect the opportunity to express his views. .Mexican Advice*. San Pram isco, August 1.?The Imperial Consul of Mexico here has been officially informed that the Liberals assaulted the fortified garrison of Acapulco at the third line of defence on the morning of July! 22d, but were repulsed and pursued some distance, leaving the dead body of their commander in the hands of the Imperialists. Fire at Cincinnati. Cisi JSXATi, August 4.?The Franklin -otton mills, situated at the corner of rhird and Smith streets, were seriously laniaged by tire this morning. A large imoiint of cotton was consumed. The loss > estimated at about tweuty thousand dol- 1 C heer* for General Lee. IiOrisvjLLE, August 4.?At alargeDuvall (Conservative) meeting last night three cheers were heartily given for General Lee, after an cxtravagaut eulogiumon that olficer by one of the speakers. Tnr Potato Rot in Iowa.?The potato rot has made its appearance in Iowa. U|K>n close aud repeated examination, it has been ascertained that a small insect in the vine of the potato is the cause of the mischief. This insect is very diminutive iu size, and is generally found head downward. It is supposed to enter the top of the vine while it is tender and growing j rapidly, and works it way down into the potato while very small, thus depositing the germ of the disease, which developes itself as the potato enlarges aud matures. I A. A. Low, of the New York Journal of Commerce, heads the Brooklyn delegation to the Philadelphia Convention.

Tka B**k Tm. Wamiixotox, August 5.?The commit, dinner of internal revenue has writteu the following letter with respect to the tax on savings hanks : Treasury Daparthitnt, *'/ Internal Revenue, Washington, August 4, 18GC.? Sir,?Your letter of the J 1st ultimo is received. Section 9 of the net of the 13th ultimo provides that every national banking association, State bank or State bank- j iug association, shall pay a tax of ten per i cent, on the amouut of notes of any person, State bank or State haukiug association, used for circulation, and paid out by them alter the 1st day of August instant, j You inquire if savings hanks are subject J to the tax thus imposed. Is the association in question a tank or banking association ? If it is, I see no reason why the tax docs not lie. The purpose of the law, as evidenccd by the amount of tax, was unquestionably t he suppression of State bank circulation ; and as savings banks are not specially excluded, it is just, and in fact necessary, to presume that they are included among the banks liable to tax. banks are fully detine paragraph one of section seventy-nine of the law. It is there provided that every incorporated or other hank, and every person, tlrm or company having a place of business where credits are opened by the deposit or collection of money or currency, subject to he paid or remitted upon drai't, chock or > order, or where money is advanced or leaned on stocks, bonds, bullion, bills of exchange, or promissory notes, etc., shall . be regarded as a bank or as a banker. It was necessary, it seems, in the opin-1 ion of Congress, "that in the paragraph j here cited, savings hanks should be espe- j eially exempted by name, in order to re-! lieve then) of the special tax, which takes | the place of the license tax, but no ex-' eruption in their favor is made in the ninth section now in question. The general provision of that section therefore must fall upon all banks, whether of issue or savings. Very respectfully, E. A. Rollins, Commissioner. ToJohnW. Duffi?, Rochester, N. Y. m A Di'KL.?Lovk tiik Cai sk.?The Abbeville (S. C.) lianner of Wednesday lias an account of an atlair of honor that occurred at Moseley's ferry on Saturday morning last between a Captain Birch and a Mr. Knight, young lawyers from Elherton, Ga. i The distance was eight paces, and there was to he no proposition of adjustment previous to the third fire. At the second iire, however, Mr. Knight was shot through both thighs. The wound, though painful, is a flesh wound, and not regarded dangerous. As usual, the tight, we hear, was about a ladv.

Of this there was thrown on the market in 1866, $? 7,034,027 ; in 1865, 336,130,718 ; and in 1864, 347,217,547. These are values in gold, exclusive of freight and charges. In the face ot these heavy and continued importations, the great New York market has been exceedingly dull frequently during the year. There is no other way of accounting tor the absorption of this increased foreign supply save that it has been taken by the South, which was left almost naked by the war. The cholera is likely to make the tall season of New York more dull than it would have been could the epidemic have been avoided. ^ * The statement of the public debt dated the 1st of August shows that the total delit is $2,770,416,608, while the amount in the Treasury is $137,317,332; the amount of the debt over and above the cash in the Treasury being 82,633,099,276. A decrease of $29,562,844 in the total debt is shown by | the statement since the last statement made on the 1st of June. Treasurer Spinner holds in trust for na-! tional banks United States securities for | the following amounts: As security tor. circulation, $329,100,700; as security for Government deposits, $38,340,500. Total, $367,441,200. National hunk currency to the amount of 3767,700 was issued by the Acting Comptroller of the Currency during the ; week, making the total amount of this currency issued up to date 82^6,'s94,??4o. i The Commissioner of Internal Revenue , has just issued a circular establishing new regulations f?>r the collection of the tax on tobacco, snuff, &c., in accordance with the j new law, approved July 13, 1866. A circular lias also been i>sned concerning tin special taxes under the new law.
