WktMniMi^wtr. CAMPBELL, PEEW & ?QO. EDITORS AND PKOPRIBTOR8. NATI RDAY MOBXIXG. JAX.29. -v T1IE CITY KLECnOBT. We are glad to see that every ward in the city has its council ticket, in the field. The Union nominees will bo found at the head of our local on the fourth page. Th??e combined aife nouncements indicate that the whole column is ixi motion. We trust that ap pearances do not deceive us. We feel sare that if all who wish well to the Union ticket will only turn out n?jxt Monday and vote we shall see -It-* tri umphantly elected. There has been very little excitement during the can vass on either side, and this 'we do not regret, provided only those who are from thorongh going conviction attach ed to the cause, do not forget their duty to it in the way of turning out at the polls. We hope to see every needful preparation made to-day for Monday. And while it Is yet time we would call upon every Union man to make it a matter of personal interest to himself to see, so far as he can, that nothing is lacking In his vicinity. Leave nothing over until Monday, but finish upevery thlng except the election itself, to-day nnd to-night. Let us not be found de linquent on Monday. Speakiso of the new loan, or fund ing project, now before Congress, the New York Financial Chronicle thinks that the bill, with some modifications, will no doubt become law, and it Is, be yond doubt, the most important finan clal measure of the season. In the ex amination of its details, our readers must keep in mind the state of things with which the bill has to deal, and the difficulties it is designed to meet. The chief of these difficulties Is the largo amount of our short date floating obli gations. Of our national debt, which amounts altogether to about $2,800,000, 000, some $1,100,000,000 are represented by long bonds, none of which mature l>eforo the year 1880. The remainder of the debt; or almost $1,700,000,000, is of shorter date, the larger part of it fall ing due In 1807 and 1808. The prbblem to be solved by the bill before us then Is to raise $1,700,000,000 during the next two years, or as soon thereafter as the money may be wanted to extinguish the greenbacks and other outstanding obligations of the Treasury. The Chron icle adds: "Mr. McCulloch, when he was here a fortnight ago, expressed the opinion that the income of the government from taxation will be enough to pay all new claims and current expenditures. If ho, the above uientioued 1,700 mil lions are all that will be necessary to provide for by a loan. Now there aro some among us who say that this amount in too large for us to raise with out appealing to foreign capitalists for aid. lint the TreaMury report recently presented to Congress shows that dur ing the last year of the war we raised by loaus and taxes no less than $1,807,074, 1HA. We shall surely be able to raise 1 700 millions in several years, if during a Mingle year ofwar we raised l,9U0mll lions without impoverishment, without proHtrating our national indastry, and without producing more than it transi tory retardation of the swift, deep widening current of our national wealth. And, In estlmatlngthat wealth, in measuring the extent of our recuper ative powers, and of our strength to bear the burdens of the war, the antici pations of the most sanguine among us liuve always fallen short, while the va ticinations of the prophets of evil have been uniformly refuted." Tuk attention of the Court of Appeals was mainly occupied yesterday after noon by the speech of Mr. Faulkner, who seeks admission to practice as an Attorney in that and other Courts of this Commonwealth, without tuking the oath prescribed by the act of No vember 10th. 1803. Mr. Faulkner can not, of course, take the oath, having been a voluutary participant in the re bellion. At Cumberland they are moving for the establishment of factories, especi ally a nail und woolen mill, one or mora of each. The Telegraph newspaper says that the merchuntaaud other capitalists thore are desirous of trying the experi ment, believing that Cumberland s naturally a manufacturing region. FROM RICHMOND. Thr Preseat Statu* of Public Opinion uov. Pelrpolntand?heI.**l*tature ?Two Nirniflrnnt K* tracts? A Cau tion to (lie People or West VlPftnls; Last evening's malls brought us ad vices from Richmond as follows; ? ? ? ? ??The INTE1.L.1GENCEU is quite right in the estimate which It sets on the loyalty of this people. Scarcer tlmn gold dollars?yes scarcer than pre cious stones?is geuuine loyalty in this captured, obdurate, false swearing and thoroughly rebel city. I do not kno\V that you are right in supposlug that Gov, pelrpolnt will leave it, since the Legislature have robbed him of every subordinate who was suspected of eveu a faint degree of loyalty, but I am sure that If the Governor consulted his (feel ings, Irrespective of his ambition and determination not to ^leld to the rebel crew, who desire nothing so much ns his abdication, ho would pack his trunk and depart at once. Bat Gov. Pier point is not the man to bo bullied bv rebels, and mark my words.' .they will yet regret their late action. * "The brutal Pollard, of the Examiner, hasdoue all in his power to stir up a feeling against the Governor by striving to lusplre contempt for him as an Ille gitimate?a West Virginia Yankee?an ? Alexandria Governoar,* as he styles him. There is a ueneral regret here, even among rebels, that somebody does not succeed In killing Pollard. I think, however, he stands as good a chance for a violent end as any man I know of. The sympathies of the com munity are against him lu his late me lees." ?? "As showing you what Is the real state of public feeling in Eastern Vir ginia, I doslre to call your attention to the enclosed clips from the papers here.*'?[The clips referred to are the following.? Eds- Inteluiuenceu.] ?* Last week as a railroad train was stopping at Gordonsville to put otT the mail, quite a crowd who had assembled there made an assault upon tho mall agent, who was a Northern man?as the Post Office Department appoint none who cannot take the oath. They Informed him that they would not al low any Yankees to run on their roads. Words'led to blowtf, and the train mo ving otf, the mail agent escaped with his life. On reporting this to .the Post Office Department. Governor ltandall Immediately struck Gordonsvillo from the list of post offices, and trains now run by that point." The next clip referred to is the follow ing oxtract from an editorial in the -Re public. It serves, wo doubt not, to il lustrate reliably the sort ofjllp profbs slons oflayalty that characterize rebels throughout Virginia.^HEDrroiw Intel LJOENCER.) "It Is a false sentiment, which mis leads a few weak minds, that a man, while offering a certain llo homage to a great government, which he has s,worn to support and respect, must continue to act in a splrit-of imaginary-allegi ance to the departed Confederacy The traditions of the four years of Its exist, ence are to overslaugh the traditions of the old Republic, from tho beginlngof the American Revolution down to 1861. There is a sentiment abroad, though we trust limited to a narrow circle, that s man is degraded who, having sup ported the Confederacy, can ever sup port anything else; who can come back from the secession of four years to his" life-long allegiance to the Union: who can bow his Knee at the shrine which all Americans worshipped until four years ago. 'ThereIs a sentiment abroad, that, in everything but the profanity and jugglery of a false oath, u man fa not a true man Unless he remains, not withstanding the oath, as much a rebel as ever. He, alone, is the true man, who, having solemly sworn allegiance to the United States, shall consider that oath compulsory, and therefore, not binding; who, whilst professing loyalty with no&itive emnhasis. mwininMnipi* the declaration with a significant wink or smile; and, whilst ready to denounce and curse any man who suspects his sincerity, is boiling over with inextin guishable hate or the government he tho edl i tors of the Republic would naturally put {the case as mildly as possible. Their I Unionism not been of a very offen I sive kind. The present sole proprietor, Mr. Lewellen, promises to offer us an article of Unionism more nearly genu ine than the late "half and half" mix tures served up to us inUhe Republic, aud I hope he will find his account in doing so. There are now five rampant rebel daily newspapers here and one (the Republic) mildly Union. What need to comment on the status of Rich mond? The fact, as I state it, speaks louder than all hypocritical professions of loyalty. Your good people in West Virginia, and espetdally you that huvo to do with the formation of public opinion, must not be deceived. You have the allies aud co-operationists of these people all through West Virginia who-would be glad to do one with, them again. ' Beware of all their re-aetionary efforts. You can not be too watchful." West Virginia Legislature. Wheklino, Jan. 19, 18C6, Senate. The Senate met at 10 o'clock. Prayer by Rev. Mr. Dlx, member of tho SenHte.
