There are some Democrats so oblivions of the fact that the war is ended and slavery dead that they keep battering away at the Abolitionists and voting for Jeff. Davis. There are some Bepnblicana bo zealous for the war that they continue to waste tbeir ammunition long after tbo enemy has surrendered or gone to bis final account. It is not strange that the resentments and prejudices engendered by the thirty years' strife over the slavery question should still linger, ond manifest their existence in national politics bv an occasional fosilade along the dark ened lines of fbe old battle-field. We sym pathize with this feeling, ond we shall not change onr course a hair's breadth ns regards any question connected with slavery and the rebellion which can be regarded os still unsettled. Bat when demagogues and knaves seek to play open these decaying passions to keep them selves in places of public trust, where no prudent man would trust them with his private purse—places which have no con nection, near or remote, with slavery, or the war. or reconstruction, or anything else of a national character—wo shall advise all good citizens to let tbo last war and tbo next war take care of themselves, and to fight in the present. W« allege that our city govern nonl Is corrupt. We do sot say that It Is corrupt in all Us ports—that would not bo tmo; but wo affirm thsl it in nut only corrupt iu many Important parts, but that it in Immxuii log more bo every year. And the most alarming feature in the Use in that, on time rolls on, the corruptionist*become stronger and the people weaker, Tbo office-holding rise.*—the j«dltldans, who, a short time ago, were barely aids io keep out of the Poor House, but are now driving fast homes and weiring diamond |)itiN~*pnt»(l iitoNt of their time Id devising nn ‘ l Kimnn to deprive lb* jwopld of any intelligent control or Jti riMllction over public idCnim. They arc, In fact, forming an ariatonracy «u republican mill. In New York they Imvo succeeded. In Han Francisco they succeeded until the j*eople, by a supremo effort, threw thou overboard. If they Imd refrained from making the 'effort lbl» year, It might have been too late next year, lu Chicago they have succeeded tolerably well np to the present tiino ; but the day of their discom fiture la near at hand. They have In (heir service some of the most expert ballot-box Bluffers in the United States; but the talents of these gentlemen will not save thou. Lot no man bo fooled by the pretence that It U necessary to re-elect the Bing in order to al>oUah fdavery and put down the rebellion. One wax at a time 1 THE MINSZSOTA DEMOCRACY. Tho Democracy of Minnesota, like their breiUroa In Ohio and rcusylvanla, are very anxious to get office.. They have bo*u out in the cold a very long time. In Ohio they talk, of greenbacks and negro suffrage; in Pennsylvania, their candidate being a “ bloated bondholder," they ignore the sub- jeet of taxing the bonds, and say nothing of greenbacks. They dodge, also, the ques tion of negro suffrage. In Wisconsin, a lew days ago, they nominated a man who had supported the war, and they congratulated the world upon the fact that slavery had been abolished! Tho Minnesota Democracy have just held their convention. and they, too, have trimmed their with a view of reaching an on chorage in office. Their regular platform waa about a* meaningless aa it could be ; and go an “ old liner,*’—one of the adamon tine Democrats who claims to have made the voyage in the ark with the fathers, — offered a resolution opposing the Fifteenth Amendment. Then ensued a scene, the like of which had never been seen in a Demo cratic convention. The resolution was op posed I Kegro suffrage was declared to be a “dead issue,” and that man was pro claimed an enemy to his party who would attempt any longer to refuse political equal ity to the negro. This, be it remembered, in a Democratic convention. This, in the nineteenth century. This, in the North west This, while Lee, and Breckinridge, and Vallandigham, and Pendleton, and Frank Blair are living. This, too, without obtaining any satisfactory answer to that memorable and time-honored question of the Democracy, “Do you want your daughter to marry a negro?” This, when California has voted to exclado the Chinese, and the Democracy of Illinois and Indiana Mill believe that negroes, having flat noses, dark ekina, and splay feet, arc not human, but a species of beast. No wonder the man who opposed opposition to negro suf frage was brave. Ho preached anew go«- )>el in the Democratic synagogue. He went back” on the fathers. Be proposed to disregard the wishes of the Democracy bf Kentucky. Ho was for forcing that ‘ ‘ sovereign Slate"' to permit her negroes to rote. It was, os the reporters say after an impressive sermon at camp meeting. “ a refreshing season/ Old men were there, and young men were there. There were present men who, one year uuq, at Kow York, vowed eternal brotherhood with Wade Hampton ; who bad declared that to elevate the negro to (K>litlcal equality was the degradation of the white race, to whose ape:lol custody this nation was committed. But, alas for the Caucasians! The negro had found champions in the Democratic camp. The negro had at last become fragrant 'ln nos trils hitherto offended at hla proximity. The old law and its anti-African commen taries were solemnly burned, and the con vention, —the Democratic Convention,—by a vote of over two-thirds, solemnly and for mally accepted the men with flat noses.

All this, once productive of so much enthusiasm In Dnm twralic oonventlona, was received with ominous alienee. One Democrat, tired of bis long exile from official trust, arid that, if the eonven lion opposed negro suffrage, it had hotter nominate Candida lea who were used to being beston. Another said that IbeDemocracyhad, out of deference to (heir Southern brethren, fought the negro; but,as the Democracy down South were themselves running ne groes for office, and were all In favor of negro suffrage, h« did not sec why they in Minnesota might nut do the ssme. Tbe “ iirogrevudves" were called upon lo wwl (bo party from (bo control of (be u im* movables," —that is, tbo old fogies; and the progressives did rally, and did declare that (boy would sot say another won! agvnst negro suffrage or the Fifteenth Amend ment! Whither are we drifting t Well may Val landigfasm say that, with the overthrow of the old loaders, the Democratic party will change, its color, and give the lie to ita past hutocy. The Democracy of Wisconsin and Minnesota, wfib hare had practical expe rience with negro suffrage in their States, haul down their once defiant “all Cauco ’aan n flags, and adopt the Republican poll 'ey of political equality. In the race,— to be squarely on that future national platform,—arc the Democracy of Dll nob to bo in the rear? Virginia, by a unanimous rote, has declared for It. The Democracy of Mississippi hare their negro candidates stumping the State. Are Illi nois Democrats to bo “ progressive,* or “ immovable ? fixe they to cling to the resolutions of *9B, and 44 Caucus!on”-ism, or or ore they to join hands with their brethren of Minnesota and welcome (heir dusky fel low-citizens to perfect equality ? WHAT THE WALL STREET LESSOR TEACHES. From the late financial battle in Wall street, one man was carried away a drivelling • lunatic; several van away to avoid insanity; others were at times in dan ger of lynching ; and over forty were bank rupted, to say nothing of the hattdreda who suffered heavily by losing fortunes,' which, in view of tho mode in which they wero won, must prove as fatal as they are dis graceful to the other hundreds who won them. Until ia wholly useless to find fault with masses of business men for obeying an invariable instinct of human nature in spec ulating in any article of fluctuating value. Tbe article really speculated in, in these Wall street campaigns, b tho greenback. It does not Ipwen the force or troth of this foci that, in outside commercial circle*, and oven in the Gold Boom, between any two parties operating on • the same aide of tbo fight, gold remained at J 35. Tbe heavy betting that gold could be forced up wan, in effect, bet ting that greenbacks could bo forced down. Tbe whole system of gambling results from tho depreciated condition of our paper cur rcncy, and could not continue a moment after this evil were removed. Tbo experi ence of four years has pretty conclusively titled the point that the currency in circu lation at tbe dose of tho war had on actual value of about 72 cents per dollar, in gold, which is expressed by quoting gold in this currency at about 133 to 138. Gold has vi brated frequently down to 131-2, and as frequently to 148 and higher. But such vibrations have been easily traceable to tho exigencies of temporary abundance and scarcity of either greenbacks or gold. Tho rest problem before the country, there fore, is, Bow shall we substitute for this paper currency, worth 72 cents per dollar, a paper currency worth 100 cents per doL ; Ur? Whatever mode of resumption may bo determined upon,—and wo arc wot at pros* cut prepared to aay which it should he, —it is certain that some legislative action should be taken to effect ft resumption of epoole payments at the very mxUml moment at which out legislators can bo brought (o tmdorsland the problem and agree upon its treatment Judging from our past four years*- experience, there Is no reason to hope (hut u greenback promise, which is neither contracted, re deemed, nur funded, will over ootno to par.

We publbihod, a few ilajh ago, Iho Joint letter of Dr. Jacobus ami Dr. Fowler, the Moderators of the Old and Now School Prottbytarian AoHcmblira of tho United Stales, in answer to tho Pope’s general in- vitation to tbo Christian world to attend tbo (Ecumenical Council. They decline that invitation because they do not admit the authority nor tbo doctrines of tbe Cborch, to both of which they would have to sub mit os members of the council, and they ably and dearly give the reasons for the faith which they profess, and of Ibo Church which they represent. Wo have also given iho substance of Dr. Cummings' letter to Iho Pope, requesting permission to attend tho council and dispute in argument tho en tire dogmas of tho Church and of the I*a- pacy. To this letter tho Tope answers that the council is not to bo held to reconsider and argue tho correctness of any part of the proclaimed faith of the Church, and that, therefore, Dr. Cummings could not bo admitted for tbo purpose proposed. Tbo Pope, in this letter to Dr. Cummings, states a fact that bos marked all tho councils of the Church. These councils do not profess to add to, or take from, the faith; but they propose, as they have done, formally to ac cept and declare, as having always boon tho faith of tbo Church, dogmas hitherto re jected or not previously formally acknowl edged. Thus, the dogma of tho Im maculate Conception, though only formally proclaimed within a few years, was proclaimed as having been always the faith of tho Church, though never before authoritatively enjoined upon the members. So, in case the approaching Council of Borne shidl adopt Papal infalli bility as an article of faith, it will not be adopted as something now, but asariogma ■which has been the faith of the Church from the beginning, and henceforth to be accepted by the faithful without question. Dr. Cummings’ request to be allowed to take up the Bo man Catholic confession of faith as it has come down from previous councils, and to discuss Us truth and va lidity, was opposed to the whole theory of the Church, and would bo a concession to a heretic not heretofore permitted to the most eminent prelate of the Church itself. The great aim of the English Pusoyites has been to obtain from Homo a restoration of the Notional Churches, os they existed previous to the Council of Trent. Previous to that there was an Anglican Church in England, a Galilean Church io France, and the Church in the German Empire with sev en! general divisions, mostly national. Those were spiritually bound to Borne, but within their own territorial jurisdiction had independent governmental authority. The scandals, abuses, and excesses which disgraced the clergy, and gave such ad ditional impetus to the Reformation, were considered as the natural results of this independence of tho National Churches, and tho Council of Trent, sitting in tho full blaze of tbo Reformation, and of the poptnar clamors against tho abuses, ' both of diaciplino and of doctrine, among its other changes, put an end to tho inde pendence of Notional Churches, and unified governmental authority in Home. Tho l*nscytt«s of England want this Anglican Church restored. They are Anglican Cath olics, accepting the doctrines of the Church, and acknowledging tho Papal head of the Church, Iml insist upon their own right of government. This the Church of Homo will not admit; on the contrary, the su premo authority of the Pope will, in all probability, secure additional strength, by the formal recognition of his infallibility. Tho Council of Trent, in Its wholesale re forms of discipline, while It succeeded generally in consolidating the vari ous National Churchm under one direct control and government, failed to accomplish (bis end In Prance, whore sav ers] of the decrees of that council, In mat tern of discipline, were rejected. Up to that Umo'the Church in Franco bad boon almost Independent of Homo in its government. During tho 300 years which hsvo elapsed slnoo the Council of Trent, this French question has undergone many changes. Uy means of concordats tho claima of Home have been admitted, and, by the repeal of these ooQoordsts, and the decrees of the government, tho independence of the Galilean Church has l>eon ro-eaUbUaboJ. For a long period, Uoasuot’s declarations of the rights and liberties of the Galilean Church were what would be called at this day U 6 * platform" ol the French Church. In the revolution, the Church as well as religion waa abolished by de cree. When the Church was re-established, tho Oallican puty was tn (bn minority, and, (hough it lain had many able champions, tbo Church in Franco baa now practically surrendered ite inde- pondonce to Homo. It is in view, probably, of the finality which the coming Council will give to the independence of National Church government* that Pare Hyacinth e, the famous Carmelite of Notre Dame, has withdrawn from Lb order and renounced hb allegiance to Borne. An attempt, some half century ago, to establish a French Catholic Church met with little favor, and soon perished. Whether Father Hyacintbe contemplates a like movement - now has yet to be disclosed. 'Tbo despatches wo have had, so far,'intimate that bis secession from tbe Church is upon matters of doc trine as well as of discipline, while the Golhosn Church of history confined ib dif- ference entirely to matters of internaljjor- eminent. ’ * ■ * Tbe Council of Homo will meet under circumstances of serious import, tbe most important of which b the threatened and apparently inevitable .destruction of the temporal power of the Pope. Tbe Council of Trout mot under for more serious and perilous circumstances. There ore at this time so doctrinal controversies in the Church; at that time the Christian world was convubed upon doctrinal points. AUhb time the Church stands separated from tem poral governments in all lands ezoept'tbe few provinces of which tbo Pope b nomi nally the temporal ruler. Whoa the Conn ml of Trent was called, tbo Church, in one form or another, either in tbo old or the now faith, woh part and parcel of the civil power in every land. Then, Kings and Em perore, as parts of the governments of Eu rope, controlled, directed, and governed the prelates within their jurisdiction, anil dictatated terms to Borne,—defying iU power, or sustaining and defending ita au thority and claims. That Council itself had a protracted and perilous time. "Wo axe iufioiited to an arti cle in tho CnthrUlc IForfif for tho following details : In ISIS, Loo %, being then Pope, Luther appealed to a General Council Loo died. In 1C22, Adrian VL being Pope, tbe Diet of Nuremberg asked that a council bo called. Adrian died without octing on tbo request, and Clement VQ., his successor, refused it until 1633, when be agreed with Charles V. to convene a council. Tbe eon- troversy then was na to who should sit in the council, and whether those who did take part in it should he bound by its decrees. Clement died in 1534, without issuing tbe call, and his successor, Paul UL, sum moned it U» meet at Mantua on the 23d of May, 1537. The Duke of Hanlon opposed the meeting, and, after many delays, it was suspended. Subsequently, Paul IIL called it to meet at Trent on November 1, 15(2, though it did not actually meet until De cember 13, 1545. The attendance was vary small, there being present, besides the Pa pal legates and the Cardinal Archbishop of Trent, only four Archbishops, twenty Bishops, and fire Generals Superior of re ligions orders. Bishops, however, gradu ally attended, and adjourned sessions were held from time to time, until Hurch 11, 1547, aperiod of fifteen months, when, in consequence of an epidemic prevailing in Trent, tbo council was transferred to Bo logna. Charles V., the German Emperor, refused permission to .the German Bishops to leave Trent. Necessity compelled the Pope to prorogue the council in Beptember, IM7, subject to bis future call. Pope Paul died in and his successor, Julius til., called the council to meet again in Trout, in May, ISM. It adjourned until Septem ber, to give time W tbo German Bishops (o attend, and again, for a like reason, until October* and brief sessions were held at long intervals until May, 1 f*r»2* In tbo meantime, war bad broken mil in Ger many, ami a decree woe plowed suspending (ho council for (wo yearn, and it «m sub sequently poslj«nied indefinitely.

Tbo Council remainod in almost daily session until December, 1503, when it closed iU labors. In the Interval tbo attendance bad Increased to 255 prelates of all degrees. In Juiitiftiy,lsGl, tbo Pope gave bis approval to its degrees, and they became the law of tbo Church. Forty-six yean bad passed since Luther bod appealed to a Council; twenty-seven years since Paul bad sum moned it to moot at Mantua; twcnty-oao years since tbo date at which it was called to meet at Trent; and nineteen years since its first session at that place. The aggre gate time occupied in all tbo sessions of the Council was four yean and dght months. The Council united the Catholic Cbnrcb In all parts of tbo world, and formally sepo rated those wbo were nominally claimants of membership, but denied its doctrines. The Council of Trent bad for its mission the expurgation of the most terrible perver sions of religion to the lowcat and meanest passions of human nature. In point-of fact. It reformed tbe Cbarcb itself; it rooted ont the most shocking depravities, hitherto successfully practised by churchmen, under the forms of religion, and instituted tbe most rigid discipline for the prevention of like corruption. Tbe present Council has no such work before it. It is called, not to reform the Church, but to reform tbo politics of the world, which, since the Council of Trent, have undergone the most wonderful change. Kings and Princes now bold their seats by permission of (heir subjects, and popnlor will bos taken tbe place of inherited sovereignty. Instead of Emperors, and Kings, and Princes, and Bakes, tbo Church has now to deal with whole peoples. Ecclesiastical Interference with and control of temporal affairs have poKsed away, and man, tbo world ovor, has recognized tbo great principle of Christ— that His Kingdom is not of this world, and that tbe tribute due onto Him is wholly dis connected with the tribute which Crcsar may chum. So changed ora affairs in tbe world, compared with tbe time when tbe Connell of Trent assembled, that tbo attend ance of Bishops at tbo Council of 1 PCD is no where objected to ; and while all nations look with respect, not to say veneration, upon such on assemblage of learned ecclesi astics, there is no government, however bum ble, that feels under tbe slightest opprehen- Biontbat Us decrees will have tbo remotest effect upon political affairs. tub yonrttVßsT, nxDcots.

UTAH. A Lecture by Major Powell on the Colorado Canon. Ceplorc of tbe Stage Robbtn, Tbe Utah Central Railroad, The Junction Controversy. The Barmens. [pbox on eneux, coi Salt Laics Cirr, Utah, Sejrt. so. Tour unassuming, but bra re and accomplished explorer, MsJor Powell, has rs—ri here on his way home, and favored us with % lecture on tne Colorado canon, which he was undoubtedly tbe first to go throagh. From the mouth or tae Cm tah, on the Green, to the xnoatb of the Yirgeb (which the Major regards as the bead of naviga tion on tbe Colorado), It u about mo mflea. in this distance the fan Is 5,000 feet, most of U com pressed Into one-filth the space, yet Is there no tingle fall more than twenty-two feet In height, and these numerous falls or rapids are not caused by rocks in place, but by Mtia fallen la from the Sidewalls. These often rise to a height of a, 200 feet, are wholly of aqueous origin, and show no signs of mineral other than cool, have been cut and carved by the winds and waters into curio os shapes, and are destitute of vegetation. There was found a succession of canons rather than one: Cataract Canon, fifty miles tong, lost below the brad of the Rio Colorado proper, which U formed I by tbe Junction of the Green and Grand; theo I Mound Canon, slxty.flve miles long: Monament I Canon, seventy-five miles; Marble Canon, forty I miles—which brings us to the month of tho Little Colorado, below which U was ouch the same as above. The exploration occupied about three months, and was successful, having oeen unattended with loreof life, or serious lou of anything else, aU though a painful uncertainly rest* upon the fate of three of the men, who declined to attempt the passage of some bed rapid* toward tbe end of the trip, and started with scant rations for the Mor mon settlements overland, pearly ISO miles dis tant. The Major bad not beard from them when he left, but a report has reached tula etty of toree men haring been killed oy the Indians In mat region, and there is little doubt as to their being | .Powell’s men. O. O. Howland, hla brothtr, and I another. The report Is that they merited death 1 by wantonly killing a squaw, but I have known O. [ a. Uowlind personally many years, (and 1 have no hesitation tn pronouncing this part of me story a libel. It was not tn the man's faithful, genial nature to do such a thing. This canon has been regarded a* the mo*t I notable example on earth of the erosive action of I water. In Governor GUnlo’s sonorous phrase. It cleaved the snowy cordillera to its root*, bur- I rowed through the bowels of the primeval znoua- I tains, and add concealed in the depths of Us I mysterious shadows, tbe precious metals tn mass I and position, it is popularly supposed, too, that I the mountains makfc the clouds. Major Powell ] has incontinently pricked one of these Illusions, I and It must perish with the popular fables of bit | tory. For the other, he maintains that the clouds made the mountain, by carving and carry- Img away the original high table land which coDßtUatcd the continents, and fonntrg la the course ot ages broad, fertile bastos like that of the Mississippi, which U a mar* ▼clloui instance of |the entire action ot water. The Colorado ta wholly formed by the melting ■nows of the northern mountains about Us sources. Thence pursuing a rainless Journey to the sea, it has no lateral waters, and baa consequently cat a mere passage for Itself, making It only remark* able as the tauf eroilvem tta action of any great river in the world. Major Rowell has now mot three rammer* cz* plorlug the Rocky Mouotalut, au<l designs to pat in two more, about the sources of Del Ttorte, which 1 pteClct will be found a far more Interest ing teuton than the Immense sandstone table of the Rio Colorado.

The treasure sio. leu by them was all recovered, Btnne having been over-persuaded by kindness to tell where It was. Tho other party numbered three, and wax fol lowed through trackless wastes and over moun tains br Deputy United Biatcs Marshal John Hol land, to Klko, mod thence on the railroad to Win nemocca, where two of them, Edmond Jones and Philip Hpanglcr, were captured. They are now in Jail Id thu city. Tho third, umed McCoy, is yet at large. They are said to bo ell of respectable famine*, and to have served la the rebel army. I am uninformed as to how much of the treasure stolen by them, If any, has been recovered. Thta will doubtless do tho road agents for this year, and It u well, became there are no boats at Benton, and tho Indians north of Helena are making it unpleasant for tho ooocbea o»a «• ibocktaavia. Treasure and travel would Ml go from Montana rfa Corinno and the railroad this tali but for the read agents, who are wono tkan the Indians. It seems strange tbe prelection still finds followenu It Is no great trick to "get the drop" on a coach load of unsuspecting passen gers, and then rob tho express,*ln which none of them baa any interest—nothing In It smacking enough of danger to be fascinating, I should* think. And of all the road agents of the lan ten years not one lives to bout of his exploits. From the nccetmtyof the case, they are regarded as wild beasts, to be banted to death, and it Is the exception where ono of them Uvea even a few months to enjoy tbe frolta or hia singular enter prise. Tho Mormons have at length arrived at a settle ment with the Union Pacino Railroad, and have taken a part of their pay In track iron and rolling stock forehe Utah Central. In nothing was the e*ynt dueorj* of (he Saints ever better ex emplified than in the way they take this. They know that their railroad won't pay interest on cost and running expenses; that ins not to their interest to baud it at present; that it will be all but Impossible to raise money by mortgaging it: that its stock won't sell; that the most of those to whom the Union Pacino were indebted cannot af ford to take their pay in Utah Central stock, be cause it will break them np; and yet one hears no word of complaint. If religion is sclusacrlflce, and rtetiffw, the Mormons certalaly have enough and to spare. They begin by sacrificing tbem tclves, and after that what U property ? Toe merest trash of coarse. The secret of sacb devo tion to a delusion is the mystery of Mormonum. Bat the construction of the road has received a new Impetus. The Iron has begun to arrive, the grading vs half done, and is being pushed; the ties ore being delivered and laid, sad before cold weather the stage route hence to Ciotah—the dustiest and roughest in the whole world—will be come “ extinct," as Major Powell said of s range of granite mountains he found on the Colorado. Cut that tt waa extant no longer ago than last summer, the bumps and bruises of numerous vuiton to the city will fully authenticate. tn* jCKcnox. Speaking of railroads reminds tne that the latest Government Commission, appointed by President Grant under act of Congress, passed eastward over the road last wee*. They took a careful in ventory of the yet unaccepted part, and It u din cult to see how they are going to avoid recom mending its acceptance, which will give the bonds to the company that built it—the Union Pacific. Thc ,, ljeea" of both roads were along and en deavoring to agree upon the vexed question of the Junction. The Union Pacific stand on the letter ot theft bond of last April, which was; they to build the rood to Promontory Summit, and the Central Pacific to pay for and own it westward of a point at or near Ogden, within eight miles. The Union Pacific built the road and brought tn their tittle bill, itemized, nearly a mile, amount log to about U.ft’OiOOfl. They had nothing more nor less than this to sffer, unless that they would sell the twenty-four miles westward ol Corione, lor actual cost, and allow the Central Pacific the use of the toad for freight from cortuoo to Ogle a, at the same rate* per talie charged by themselves oo their own road.

Tbe fact is, polygamy, especially la the unlimit ed and incestuous form It has assumed In Utah, win not be*r looking at; hence tbe super-sens)- ttveneas of the Mormons. Moses forbade a mao to many his own flesh and blood, and Mahomet restrained bis followers to three or four wive* each. The Mormon may marry erery year or every month as louses be lives, and, if he cannot feed his women, make them feed themselves and him IQ the oargain. And be may marry mother and daughter, two or three sisters, hu own nieces, hw half-sister, anybody.

Variona are tbe speculations in regard to the manner in which the bobble has been managed. It ts dear to all that (he whole panic has been on artificial one; that there is nothing in the condi tion ot tbecoontryor me state or ihc finances to jusilty it; further, that it bus tvwa engineered l>y a set of unscrupulous men, »ao hoped to obtain gain by the mwortuoes of others. That they have succeeded in nearly ruining many la appar ent, but it Is likewise clear that they bare denol- Übeo il not completely ruined themselves. They have bollt a house of cobs and It has tumbled down on their own heads. There are numerous motors m regard to the po sition of Secretary Boutwcll to this affair. One thing la clear-some or the leaders la the clique urged (heir friends at the eommeacement to bay gold, that it was going up to iso. They were root with a response that this was a dangerous move meet, for Mr. Bontwelt would prevent their ac complishing it The response was, “Mr.Bout well is to-day in town; we have seen him. and would not engage in it were it not for his con sent.” That he sympathized with and aided toe movement for a rise is universally conceded, but the pressure of public opinion became so great that he was compelled to change hla coarse and lend tala influence to break tho bubble. It was this unexpected interference ol the Secretary of the Treasury that caused (be crash. They mi counted upon that; in fact,|relled upon either as sistance, or, at the most, hands off. The fact that the order cent to Ur. IHUtctfleW to anticipate the Noreml»er interest was so loeg delayed after in uate, ts brought dp os evidence of this connivance. It was rumored yesterday that the Chamber of Commerce intend lo Inquire Into this matter, and ascertain. U possible, II Mr. Doutwell really had a hand In the movement to put up the price. The great storm is now ever; unis expended Its force, and now will cornea calm. Too gold bulls bare been routed, and are moving nreund with broken, severe wounds, and tn tv disabled condition generally—living examples of tne folly of men In trying to get uoa fictitious panic, ami creating an artificial pressure lor money. These desperate men Pave been Plneed on tiie retired list, where they will not bo able to inflict any lurtbet hatm lor (he prevent.

By this time the financial community in every part or the country was affected; the telegraph Hues were crowded with news from the . Gold Room; and public cariosity bad a topic not excelled In Interest since the war, in the wtM fluctuations of the price of gold, made by the varying successor “bulla” or “bears.” The pub- He interest in It, however, was only curiosity, for It was at tiost but s gambling game of a colossal site. A faro table at whlco gnat capitalists and corporations should bet millions would attract the same kind of interest, aod would have as real and vital a connection with iho trade of the romiity. the tight was fonaht and decided last as a faro bank flubu a conspiracy of Us customers. It was a contest of Dervc and coufldctico “backed” by long purse*. The party which had bought up all the gold wlthm reach, and put op Its price, seemed to l«o victorious. They displayed their power overall who bad sold “short” gold, and wan busy making triumphant settlements, nnd contracting for euunmma differences, when some of the wealthiest bankers of the world, whose tuans hail been sktlMiiy laid in concert with their European correspondent*, csmo into ih* market and offered ttaiimlied amounts of gold at tne in flated prices mado hy Hio conspirators, THU daunted Hi* “hull*:” they hesitated; and l*inrt> they eo’Hd recover their calm* tires the prico fell nesrly twenty per cent.

TtanrowaSßomethtegodhteamoag the actors, but much more among the spectators. The very moled in which Wall street speaks, and In which all us business la carried on, is the work ot a genius for humor, which most be widely spread among its frequenters. This dialect Is al ways enlarged by such a day a* yesterday, and new bits oi metaphorical slang are received with general delight, aod help aa much to confuse the din of the Gold Boom aa to save It* brain* from actual lever. Its members constantly told one an other, yesterday, to “keepiheir brads level;”and perhaps the form of the suggestion sometimes helped the effort to obey It. The most memorable fact of the great gold “ comer” has been the interference of me Treas ury. This has made U, instead of a mere struggle between gsos of gamblers, an event of national Importance. Itla the greatest defeat the Treas ury baa met with under the present administra tion. Nothing has brought n more credit hitherto than its announcement that ail sole* of gold »houM be public*, with due “notice of the amount to be sold: and that all sales should be made with out reference to speculation, solely on public grounds. Beth of Dies** principles hare been abandoned; the largest sale ever announced 1» trade to meet a speculative emergency, and in ahi of oce side tn a gambling contest; aod the government refuses' to announce the amount xu be sold, but reserve* the right to accept any number of bids, fur anv amount and at any price. 1 bis sudden abandonment of every •oand principle In the sole of cote cannot but af fect the country unfavorably. It tends to destroy the conQdence m the independence and wisdom of the Treason, which ha* been slowly growing tp for rt* momos past. It directly encourage* thai epeculailon for a decline In coin which nos mined so msny bustnew men, and which la the real cause ot all such wild fluctuations in the cur rency as those of the past week, it 1* thus a fun damental mistake in administration widen will be deeply regretted by an who wish wisdom and hon esty to go band In fund m the government of the nation; by none, wc believe, will it be more re gretted hereafter than by those who have been aisled into ordering it now.
