"Wc give no credence to the report which
comes from Washington that the Govern
ment hesitates about approving Gen. Fre
anonVs late proclamation. Gen. Fremont
has squared his actioq by the law of Con
gress authorizing the confiscation of rebel
property, and it docs not lie in the mouth
of anybody at Washington, to recall his
Words, until it be shown that the circum
stances, under which they were uttered,
were not those contemplated by the legis
lative power when the law was enacted.
We apprehend thatno one will attempt to
make such a showing If Gen. Fremont
—w®B f not then justified in putting the law
infiscce, ne one will ever be so justified.
. We cannot believe that his proclamation
will be disapproved- If there were any
such intention on the part of the President
he would have indicated it in some authori
tative manner ere this.
fab OF EXCHANGE*
The general indifference to any accurate
knowledge of the nature of money and
currency, about which men dogmatize so
mack, is demonstrated in this matter of
the Par of Exchange, It is the most inter
esting point of the currency question, and
the most necessary to an understanding of
the subject, for it is the stand-point from
which all of currency proceed
relating to the traffic of the world; yet not
one merchant of fifty in the average, per
haps not one of a hundred, can
tell the meaning of the par of exchange
on London. It is generally and correctly
understood to he nine and one-half
per cent, premium, and when the
selling rate exceeds this in New York,
that the “ balance of trade” is against us,
and when it fells short of this, the “ bal
ance of trade” is in our favor. In the for
mer case specie is exported, in the latter it
is imported. We mark the “balance of
trade” in quotations, for there is a good
deal of nonsense about this also, as we will
explain by-and-by. .
The par of exchange means the money
value or price of the pure metal contained
in the monetary unit of one country, ex
pressed in the equivalent currency terms of
another country. For example, we wish
to know how many francs in Paris express
the value of onr dollar, gold for gold; and
we find the standard of the French coin to
be the same as ours, 9-10ths fine.
The alloy in all coin is reckoned of no val
ue, because it is not worth the cost of part
ing. The gold dollar is onr monetary unit
Anfl weighs in gross, Troy grains,

Then we ascertain by the rule of Propor
tion—as 89.55; 20fr:: 23.23:5.18—and that
our American dollar is equivalent to 5
francs 18 6-10 centimes in Paris. The par of
exchange in is therefore sfr. 18c. We
read the quotations of French exchange
conversely to the English. When the fig
ures are high, exchange on Paris is low
and in our favor, because we buy so many
francs the more for a dollar; and when the
figures are low, the exchange is high, be
cause we buy so many francs the less for
the dollar. In the former case, gold tends
this way, it being of higher market value
here than in France. Yet it may not
come, for three reasons: First, the differ
ercnce may not be sufficient to pay freight
and other charges. Second, it may be ar
rested by the course of exchange between
France and England. Third, the course
of exchange between this country and
England may arrest it. The intercourse
between Paris and London, however, is so
intimate that the rate here on those two
points seldom varies materially. In the
latter case, gold tends from this country to
France, subject to the same interference of
intermediate exchanges, of course.
It is, however, the course of exchange
with England that determines whether the
precious metals will be'imported or ex
ported here, and the par of exchange on
London is therefore our specie measure.
This is because London, from her central
position, vast capital and commerce, has
become the great Clearing House or set
tling place of the commercial world, A
bill on London at sight, drawn in any part
of the world, is therefore equivalent to so
much gold deposited in the Bank of Eng
land. The pound sterling is the monetary
unit of England; it is the money of ac
count, of which the sovereign is the money
in tale. We have, therefore, to ascertain the
pure gold in the sovereign and its relation
to the pure gold in our dollar, to know the
par of exchange on London. The stand
ard of British coinage is measured by the
old Abyssinian diamond weight, the Carat,
24 of which express purity, and the coin is
22 carats or 11-12ths pure. The exact
height of the British sovereign in gold is,
Troy grains 123 374.
Dedact alloy l-12th
Poic gild in the eoverclgu is
The little fraction being inappreciable,
Tve say, as 23,23: $1::113:4.86.65, and we
find the par of exchange on London to be
$4,86,65, that being in Federal money the
equivalent of the pound sterling. But the
British have an old prejudice in fevor of
measuring the pound hy the Spanish pillar
dollars, now out of circulation, the value of
the dollar being 4s. 6d. Of course there are
8 sixpences in the dollar, and 40 sixpences
in the 20 shillings of the pound. Divide
40 by 9, and we find $4 4*9 in the pound,
which we express in Federal money by
$4.44.44 and an interminable fraction.
Now, to bring this Spanish dollar valua
tion, which is merely nominal, to
the real valuation of our gold dol
lar of 25.8 grains requires an addi
tion of 9 1-2 per cent., or 42,22 cents to
4,44,44 making 4,86,66, and the differ
ing fraction, which is almost inapprecia
ble, is compensated by the 1-1000 grain of
gold discarded in the estimate of the sov
ereign. This notion of the Bank of En
gland of adhering to an effete circulation for
the expression of value in the pound quakes
an unnecessary complication in exchange,
and a ridiculous paradox in ftxpra»»ng the
par at a premium. Thesis explained the
mystery of the exchange on England, be
ing apparently adverse always, which
leads unpractised thinkers on the subject to
consider the so-called “balance of trade”
as always against u&
Another custom should be noticed, that
of drawing (K) day bills and considering
them par. It will be observed that when
you have appropriated $486.65 here for
£IOO sterling, you have yet to place the
gold in London, which will cost, unless
you cany it yourself not less than 1 per
cent, in freight and charges. You may as
well, therefore, lose 60 day’s interest filler
sight in the bill, the matter of security
being properly considered. One of these
items compensates the other, approximate
ly; it is therefore customary to consider
bills at 60 day’s eight as a par remittance,
the loss of time in transmission being the
game in either case.
In connection with this subject, we have
_ acme remarks on the “ balance of trade” to
offer, in our next issue.
THE tTAt SJL&KSD OUT*
Commodore Stringham’s success at Hat*
teras Inlet is indicative of the way in which,
as the war progresses, the rebels may be
most surely, effectually and cheaply reach
cesively to Charleston, Savannah, Mobile
and New Orleans. Those places onoe in
possession of the Federal troops, the rebel*
lion would be to all intents and purposes
at an end. They might require powerful
garrisons, and the support of costly fleets;
but firmly held, they command all the into*
rior, and, by controlling the gate ways of
trade put the commerce of all the revolted
States at our mercy. Not & pound of!
freight could go in. nor out that did not j
pay regular duties; .not a more could bo |
made that our combinations could not •
check. The people yet a while might re-1
fuse to send out their cotton, but that mu
chness would be only temporary; they
might neglect to send representatives to
the Federal Congress, hut the absence of
such would not impede legislation; they
might not choose to avail themselves of
our Postal System, if not let them
send their letters as -they can; they may
not appear in the Federal Courts, perhaps
will not permit them to be held, but if they
do not deal with us, we shall have no occa
sion. to sue them in these courts nor ia any
other: they may refuse to vote at Presi
dential elections, but that will not leave
us without a President; they may refuse to
give up escaped criminals, if so, such
crimmids would find plenty of congenial
company; they may refuse to spend their
summers in the North; hut civilization
will not suffer here, if they stay at home.
It is certain: whatever they might refuse
to do, there is one thing that they could
not do if they tried—that is, continue
the war.
We hear a great deal of gabble, nowa
days, among rebel sympathizers about
“undying,” “unalterable," “everlasting”
determination to continue the fight, and
die, each man half a dozen tiroes over,
mainly as Kirby died, rather than submit
to the “vandal invader,” the “Yankee,” the
“polluter of the soil," and nil that sort of
tragic mouthing; but such words do not
amount, when measured by the proper
standard, to enough to set up the frame
work of a respectable farce. ” Throw out
the. nigger question, the cotton ques
tion, the question of bread and but
ter, and they would all be very fine;
but in the contingency which we for
see, the Almighty Dollar is the pow
er more potent than armies. That will
settle the hash; and the sooner we put
these boasting Bobadlls in a position where
it can be brought to bear on them with all
the force it is capable of exerting, the
sooner wiUthls wicked rebellion come to
an end. Four expeditions are needed for
October. In November, the shipment of
cotton must begin.
STBENGIfi OF THE LOTiLISTS
AND BEBELS.
The numerical strength of the loyalists
and rebels may he thus stated:
TOR TUB TIBIOK.
PopnJation oi Free State?
Loyalists in Border Slave States.
Total Union strength.
Rebels in Slave States..
Coerced Slaves
Total Rebel strength.
Tins states the respective belligerent
forces in round numbers; but there are
seme modifications that ought to be taken
into account. Of the nineteen millions of
whiles in the Free States, there are from
one to two millions of rebel sympathizers,
who give the enemy all the aid and com
fort they dare. Their treason crops
out in peace-meetings, and white flag dis
plays. They have much to, say about
“abolitionism,” and insist on using the
name and machinery of the late Democrat
ic party for purposes opposition to the
Government They are very active in
dissuading men from volunteering to fight
for the Union.
.35 8

On the other hand, there are many
Union men in seceded States, who give
hut a reluctant support to secession. They
are mainly in Tennessee, North Carolina,
and Texas. It would be safe to estimate
them at one million of people. We think
the Unionists in the seceded States, may
be reckoned as as offset against the torles
in the loyal States, though they are not
permitted to express their sentiments one
tenlh as boldly for the Union as the white
feather gentry in the North do again st it.
The slaves we put down as all on the
side of the rebellion. There are a few
loyal slaveholders, but the number is so
small that it is scarcely worth computing.
The free colored inhabitants in the seceded
States, are all forced to render assistance to
the rebels. They will fully counterbalance
the slaves of loyal masters in the Border
States.
The most liberal estimate of the num
ber ,ef people who may be classified as
friends of the Union, is twenty millions;
and the number who are trying to destroy
it, eleven and a half millions. This is a
formidable host of enemies; hut more than
cne-third of than are unwilling enemies.
They are obliged to take sides against the
Union by Northern connivance and con
sent. The masters have forced them all
into the rebel service, and are making
them supply the rebel armies with rations
and other indispensable military necessities.
By the uses to which the slaves are put, the
whole able-bodied adult male population of
the seceded States can bear arms and are
taking the field against the Union forces.
The rebel soldiers are not only main
tained by the slaves, but their families are
fed and chid also. The labor of the Slavo
nian and bis wife and children keeps his
master in the rebel army, and supports his
mistress and her children, and pays the
taxes on the plantation. Deprived of
the labor of his slaves, the master
would be obliged to leave the camp
and return home to work with his own
. 10.275
.113,001
hands for the support ofhimself and family.
From tiie surplus product of the slaves’
labor the masters are enabled to send all
the able bodied 41 poor white trash” to the
army and make provision for the mainten
ance of their families during their absence.
The slaves consume but little of their earn
ings. They are led on the cheapest food,
dad in the cheapest raiment, and worked
to the fullest extent. The negro woman
labors in the field as well as the all
the children from eight years and upwards
must work. A thousand negro families
produce as much surplus, over and above
their consumption, as two thousand North
ern white families. Four millions of slaves
contribute as much material aid to the re
bellion as eight millions of loyal whites
can off-set If the rebels were deprived of
the labor of their Blares, the loss to them
would be as great as it the whole North
west, with its eight millions of inhabitants,
should withdraw from the support of the
Government and call home its soldiers.
All the efforts which the eight "Western
States are making to put down the rebel
lion is neutralized by the help which the
rebels derive from the slave population.
The rebels employ this mighty engine of
militaiy power against "the Government
with the frill knowledge and consent of
the people of the North. The reasoning
that justifies this singular policy, talks in
this way: “We can’t prevent the rebels
“ from using their slaves against the Union
“ unless we liberate them; we have preju
“ dices against negroes being free, and dis
“like injuring the Southern aristocracy.
“"We would rather pour out our blood and
“ treasure in a combat against master and
“slave and take the chances of saving the
“Union, than to deprive the master ot the
“possession of the slave, and thereby
“crush the rebellion and the slave-power
“at the same time.” How long the people
will remain of this mind, the future will
develops. If they can save the Union and
slavery they want it done. If one or the
other must be sacrificed, which shall go ?
The military power of the rebels is thus
shown to be equal to fifteen and a half
millions of free population. They can
place in the field and sustain as large an
army as they could do with twice their
present population, if they had no slaves.
In providing men and means to carry on
this war let it be borne in mind that we
are combatting in effect, a population of
three-fourths as large as our own, and pos
sessing the further important advantages
ot fighting on their own soil And let us
also keep in mind, that one-third of this
hostile force which we encounter exists by
onr tolerance and approval But we shall
have this consolation, that if the Union is
overthrown and Constitutional liberty de
stroyed, the “Divine institution'' will be
saved and the “ niggers" kepi in bondage.
lowa Pint ftTftlrr Regiment.
The Burlington Bavskcye of last Friday esys
that the officers of the First Cavalry all re
signed the day previous and held a new elec
tion with the following result:
Fitz Bxsbt'Wabbek, CjlonaL
W. M. T. Tobeescb,Lieut. Colonel.
W. S. Leffikqwbll, Maj ,>r.
This regiment is being prepared with great
cate. It will be finely mounted, armed ana
equipped. The material of which ills com
posed Is cf the very best kind-—hardy, power
ful, resolute Westerners -who estimate
‘‘secesh” at its proper value and no more.
In a few days the regiment will be ready to
join Gen. Fremont's army. It will do great
ce^ce.
AiPnlplt Response to Fremont*
[From Ihe Cincinnati Gazette Sept. 2,]
Bcv. SL D. Conway, of this city, in conclu
ding hia discourse on Sunday, spoke as fol
lows of the gallant Commander of the
West:
There rings through every mind here to
day that noblest word which the war has yet
elicited—the proclamation of the gallant Com
mander of the West, who has shown himself
a Reman Cortios, brave and manly enough to
Itap straight Into the heart of this, conflict.
His steel rang tine upon the flint of rebellion,
and brought forth a spark of true fire. God
grant thar, it may flash through the land aad
1 gbt the train ot liberty that yet sleeps anflred
under the entrenchments of slivery I
When this war Is no to the standard of
Jchn C. Fremont, the country will be saved.
Hitherto known as the dazing heart that
first planted the stars and stripes upon
the highest peak of the E?cky Moutains,
henceforth the nobler fame awaits him,
of one who first placed the standard on
the highest rnmrmt of liberty and hn
manity that ranged within his possible an
thority. Tears ago, before’ his name was
echoed through the land, as one for the high
est office in the country, it was my privilege
cf;en to touch that brave man’s hand, and
look into his“ H imld and magnificent eye,” and
I never did so without feeling that there was
a power sheathed In that brain and nerve which
would one day be unsheathed for his country,
and lead the van of honor like King Arthur’s
sword Escalibur, that struck only for the
right, and whose stroke never failed.
The nation cried for a leader—a man: 10, he
is here! ’
He takes the step that Congress was too
timid to take openly. He pauses not to ask,
“will this advance roy chances for the next
Presidency ?” not “ whether, if the country is
restored, this step will not make me an object
of special odium to the South ?” He
Mops not to consider If it may not bring
the lurking dagger near to his heart Nor
dees he seek to shift the responsibility on. oth
ers. Upon the banner of the West his own
hard wrote the golden words in the the eye
of the world: “ Their slaves, if they have any,
are lunby declared free men ”
That one sentence will do more to strike
terror to the hearts of our enemies, to
strengthen us at home, to gain hi nor abroad,
than all that has been done at Washington for
thirty years.
Henceforth the genius of America adopts
Fremont as her darling hero.
The Journal of_€ommerce'»Valedlo
lory ot Mr HdlioeK*
The New Tork Journal of Commerce of Sat
urday last contains the valedictory of Mr.
Gerard Hallock, the principal editor and pro
prietor. Mr. EaUock bewails the degeneracy
oi the times as follows:

. 1,000,000
.20,000,000
. 7,503 000
. 4,000,000
I have received anonymous letters by the
dozen, threatening personal violence and the
detraction of my office. Volunteer commit
tees have waited upon numbers of our sub
scribers, nrging ana sometimes significantly
advising them to stop takirg the Journal of
Cothmerce, Anonymous letters and circulars
have been served upon advertisers, warning
them if they continue to advertise in the Jour
nal of Commerce, their own business will suffer
in consequence. lhe~ ultrawar press, whose
name is legion, has been set upon us, or has
eet itself vpen us, and continued the onset
fer weeks end months, with a lerccity that
knew no bonnde. The U. S. Grand Jury has
presented us, or half-presented us, just at the
clceccf ibeir session, asking no instructions
from the Judg-,andexpresßiy stating that they
• desired none, preferring to lay the matter over
to the rust Urm ot the court. Lastly, on the
strength of that presentment, the Post Master
General has refused to our paper the common
right cf transmission in the msils. Bad the
Gland Jury waitedf<jrinstructions,the Jadge,
whatever might be his prejudices, would have
been compelled to tell them that we had vio
lated no law, and therefore that they had noth
ing to do in the case. Bat by leaving the mat
ter in abey auee for two months, there would
be time for the poison to work in the commu
ni:y, without the possibility of our admials
tenrg an effectual remedy; and also a chance
fer the Post Master General to apply the
e crews to an old enemy of Abolitionisai, and
sectionalism generally. Had this last f jrai of
oppression been omitted, all the others would
have failed of their object For, iu spite of
them all, our circulation in the aggregate has
teen steadily increasing, and w« have more
subscribers to-day in the nou-seceded States
than we had cn the Ist of January last iu the
whole Union. But|l cannot contend with the
Government, and have no disposition to do so,
1 btlieve the exclusion of the Journal of Com
metce from the mails is sanctioned by no law,
but that it is in violation of law, and of the
Constitution, But as neither the law nor -the
Constitution was available agalnetrthe edict of
the Government, or one branch of it, I con
cluded to save my partners (some of whom
ccuid not afford to lose so large an amount of
property,) by disposing of my interest in the
establishment, and retmegfromits direction;
thus atoning lor the sins of the ultra-war pa
pers, whose testimony in regard to the Jour
nal cf Commerce the Post Master General
doubtless received as true. Had it not been
.11,500,000
tor my partners, or some of them, I might
have preferred to leave the dead body of the
Journal of Commerce unbnried, as an illostra
tion cf the measures of liberty now enjoyed
ty the press in this free country. However,
my desire is to allay excitement rather than
promote it; especially as I perceive by numer
ous letters just received from various places
at the North, that the affair is creating quite
sufficient excitement, and 1 fear too much,
without any aid from me. 1 would advise the
persons alluded to, and all others, to bs pa
tient and submissive. The times are out of
joint, and men bad belter bear encroachments
upon their liberties temporarily, than attempt
to maintain their rights by any disorderly pro
ceedings.

Affaire at the Betel Capital and at
Norfolk.
[From the Philadelphia Inquirer, Slot nit.]
We yesterday had an interview with a well
known Philadelphian, who, within a day or
two, has returned from Richmond and Nor
folk, and from him gleaned some very inter
eating information. He bed been residing in
Richmond for several months, a greater part
of the time In business, but about the last of
July, finding that his northern birth was pro
vocative or insult, he determined to leave.
Pin ding it impossible to procure a pass from
the author Pits at Richmond, and hearing that
the Rev. Leary A. Wise, Jr., formerly a cler
gyman in this city, whom he knew, was at Nor
folk, he bade adieu to tbe scene ot h»s suffer
ings, end went by railroad to that city.
Upon his arrival at Norfolk he called upon
Mr. Wlee, who, he informs ns, looks well, and
ie endeavoring to procure the appointment of
chaplain in the army. That gentlemm 'inter
ceded with General Huger, wno promised that
upon tbe first opportunity he should be per
mitted to go North. Accordingly, on Tues
day lart, Lieutenant Milligan, commander of
the little steamer known as the “ flag-of truce
boat,” came to his hotel and told him private
ly that he could go on board, and thence to
Fortress Monroe. The offer was acceded to,
and after being detained a night at the fort
ms, he came safely to Baltimore and then to
Philadelphia. Upon theateamer from Norfolk
were the son of General Huger, and a’eo
of Commodore William D. Porter, both In fall
uniform. - '
The Richmond fair grounds are occupied as
the principal receiving ddpot for troops; where
rarely less than from five to ten thousand men
are concentrated. Around Richmond are five
other camps, comprising somdv 15,000 men.
Tbeee men, and, our informant states, all who
have passed through Richmond, arc well arm- -
ed, equipped and uniformed. There are no
entrenchments worthy of mention in orarosad
tbe city, and with the exception of sixty or
seventy howitzers, belonging to the .‘•Rich
mond Howitzers,” encamped on the hospital,
grounds, there are but few pieces of artillery.
The Tredegar Iron Works are turning out six
or seven rifled cannon a week, and experi
ments with them are made daily. Ssveral of
♦he pieces stolen at Norfolk are also being
rifled. There are between two and three hun
dred thousand men now in Virginia, and it is
said that Virginia alone can send to the seat
of warst any time onehundredandfiftythou
sard soldiers. Before the battle of Bali Ran
several regiments were refused acceptance,
tut now all who apply are received.
DESIGNS UPON PHILADELPHIA.
The citizens and soldiers no longer speak of
taking Washington, but our informant states,
the prospect of taking Philadelphia is con
stantly referred to. They say they will pour
an army of 40,000 into Maryland, near Wil
liamsport or Sandy Hock, and then, with an
increased force, will march by the way of
CbamberEbnrg to Philadelphia.
This city taken, they will then march north
ward. Jeff Davis, in a recent speech, said
that he would march his army through to
MattcchnsfcUe, “where the causes which led
to tbe war originatedand the same remark
wse previously msde by Mr. Stephens. They
entertain no doubt of enccees, and apnear to

The prisoners captured at different times by
the rebels are provided with plenty to eat,
but are becoming much disgusted with their
situation, more particularly as crowds of men,
wemen and children daily visit end tantalize

TEOOPS AND BATTERIES.
The soldiers are promptly paid-in paper
money—and there is no lack of tho same cur
rancy in Richmond. Our informant laughs at
the idea that there is any suffering from lack
of provisions, and says the new crop, com
blued with the stock on hand, will suffice to
last the South for two years, the crops never
having been more abundant than during the
present year.
James River is well protected with batteries
frem City Point to ‘its mouth. Not long
since a rumor was circulated that five Fed
eral steamers were of the month of the river,
coming up to aitack Richmond, and not only
was the utmost excitement created among
the military, tut the citizens, male and ie
male, ran down to the wharves, armed with,
every conceivable weapon. Petersburg is
used only og a temporary stepping-place, and
not more than six hundred soldiers are there
at ary one time.
Noriolk cur informant believes to bs im
pregnable. The stolen guns, to the number
of several hundred, have been mounted at
different points; sand batteries hive been
thrown up, and wherever it is believed an at
tack wou'd be made, has been well fortified
At the “ Hospital Camp,” four of the largest
guns, one a 64-pcunder, rifled, the invention
cf General Huger, have been mounted. Ha
ger’s gun, it is said, has thrown a distance of
four miles, to a point beyond the lighthouse.
There ere at lesst 50,000 troops in and around
Norfolk. It was reported there that the big
gun at the Rip Raps had been silenced by a
cannon at SewalTs Point. The “kid gloved”
gentry of the South, he says, have accom
plished wonders in throwing up entrench
ments.
The Mcrrimac, Germantown, and one othff
vessel have been raise?, and a large force m
mechanics is at work on each, preparing them
for service.
Jtfil Davis still stops at the Spotswood
House, and is idolized by tae citizens and
military.
AN ATTACK UPON FORTRESS MONROE THREAT-
ENED.
Our informant states that the rebel leaders
have fuliy determined to make an attack upon
Fortress Monies, and have collected and se
creted a large number of scaling ladders, mat
ry of ■which formerly belonged to the hook
end ladder companies ol Baltimore. Floating
batteiles, made of railroad non, are also being
constructed for the same purpose at Rich
mond and other places. *
The negroes are quiet, and no fears of an in
surrection are apprehended. Thsre'arono
negio military companies, but each regiment
is supplied with an unusual number of col
ored servants.
The Ices of the rebels at Bull Ron is admit
ted by them to be twelve or fifteen hundred,
but the actual loes was much above that fig
ure.
Certain kinds of provisions are becoming
very scarce in Virginia, more particularly tea,
coffee and sugar, end of the former article
none can be had except as a special favor.
Brown sugar is selling at from twenty-five to
thirty cents in Richmond, and on inferior
quality of Rio coffee at twenty-five cents a
pound. At Norfolk our informant stopped at
the best hotel in the city, and for ten days
there was no butter on the table. Ice has be
come very scarce, and all that could be pro
cured in Richmond was seized by ths govern
ed i nt for the use of the hospitals.
The stock of nonbero-made boots and shoes
was fast diminishing, and there is no leather
to make more, A pair of boots, worth in
Philadelphia $3, cannot he purchased in Nor
folk for less than sl2.
A noticeable fact is, that almost every person
is dressed in uniform. Those who wear citi
zen’s dress are hooted at in the streets, and
called “ Yankees.” The military fever suffers
so diminution, but is.kept alive by exaggera
ted reports of victories [and lying statements
of Northern atrocities. There is some sick
ness among the camps, especially the measles,
which are extremely fatal. The small pox is
not so prevalent as reported, but bilious
fevers are on the increase, and the greatest
tnfferirg is felt for want of quinine and other
medicines. Quinine Is the staple remedy In
all parte of the Bouth. and no one can imagine
the distress at the want of it. The Whole
southern country is studded with tents, form
ir-gagrand encampment, ready for drafting
into service. The utmost immorality prevails
in ell the camps, and it is stated that an Ala
bama regiment, stationed at Norfolk, have
spent in twojnonlhß $150,000, the greater por
tion of that sum being expended for liquor and
luxuries.
Tire Income Tex*
[From tho National Intelligencer.]
As some misunderstanding continues to
prevail in certain quarters with regard to the
time when the act levying taxes on incomes
goes into effect, it may be proper to repeat
that it is tbe Ist of January next, not tbe first
of April, (1862, as the original. draft cf the.
bill provided. Moreover, the tax is payable
on incomes received during the present year.
The forty-ninth section of the act contains this
clause:
“The tax herein provided shall be assessed
upon the annual income of the persona here
matter named for the year preceding the
time for assessing and tax, to wit, the year
next ire ceding the fiist of January, eighteen
hundred and klxty-two.
All persons, therefore, who, during the cur
rent year, are in the receipt of incomes ex
ceeding eight hundred dollars a year, must
pay their tax at the rate of three per cent on
the whole amount in excess of that snm. It is
provided, however, that, in estimating in
comes, ail national, state, or locil taxes asses
sed upon property from which an income Is
derived shell be first deducted.
Gen* Mitchell and (he Cincinnati De-

Professor Mitchell, lately appointed Brig
adier-General in the regular army, has been,
appointed to the command of Camp Dennison,

material from the Eastern arsenals, and will
have under his command at all times a force

Camp Dennison has not been a pleasant re
collection in the minds of our citizens. Under
a former administration, when it contained a
large force, there was a lack of discipline and
a general looseness of manners. In the
change from, three months to to three years 7
enlistments, it was also greatly demoralized
by electioneering appliances, and political in
trigue had altogether too much to do there.
These disturbing influences are now all got

[From the Republican, Sept. Si]
It has baa cot taken us by curar !ae that mar.
tial law should be proclaimed in Missouri,
pie course of the Secessionists, beaded by
Jackson, ard the invasion of the State by am*
«d troops of the Confederate States, with the
sid and comfort given to them by thousands
of misguided, and in other cases, reckless citi
zens, made it an inevitable necessity. It has
not come too soon, and as Gen. Fremont has
it now in bis power to enforce his commands,
we hope to seeits beneficial effects made man
tfcet all over the State in a few days. We
know that martial law la a new thing to our
people, and an unpalatable thing to many who
do not stop to consider the actual condition
of the country. Until now, there has never
been an cccsion for a resort to so extreme a
measure for the safety of the State. But It
is‘the only one left to ns. Let ns examine
the matter a moment. By no act of the
-people of the State of Missouri hive they,'
at any time, betrayed any anxiety to dissever f
their connection with the United States.
Wien the question has been distinctly put
to them, they have, at the polls, and by their
representatives in Convention, declared their
fidelity to the Union—and this is the position
which they hold at But Missouri
has teen fnvaaeffby troops from a power en
gaged in nuking war upon-the United States,
of which ehaia a member. A large portion of
her tenitorybasbetn overran and laid waste;
many lives have been sacrificed by them. The
appeals of'a man who had absented himself
from the State, .and who had been deposed
from bfrposition as Governor by competent
authority, have been heard by a portion of our
people—they have taken the .alternative of
arming themselves, and of patting themselves
in hostile an ay against the Government of tee
United States and of the State—they have
committed countless offences against law and
order, and in the- absence-of sufficient power
in the State to drive out these invaders and to
quell these disturbances, the military power
of the United States steps in to punish these
outrages end to restore peace to the State. No
good citizen will deny that this interference
•was inevitable and even compulsory on the
part of the Military Chief of this Department.
In no other way than that suggested by
can peace be restored.
Martial Law ought to have no terrors for
good, law-abiding citizens; it Is only those
who, in their hearts and by their conduct,
show manifest disloyalty to the State and to
the Union, who have anything to dread from
its operation.. We appeal to all good citizens
of the Sta£, whatever may have been their
inclination?, at once to submit to the new
order of things. It wHI eaye a world of trou
ble and disaster and* bloodshed, all round.
The measure of injury to the State, in all her
freat interests, is now within the control of
er own citizens. "We Implore them, as they
value their own lives and the security of their
cwn property, to assent to the terms of this
proclamation, and peace will again be restored

rages hitherto committed on innocent citi
zens by an unciscipllned soldiery will hereaf
ter be repressed, and, aa he will hold tbe ‘offi

'may readily be done, and one great cause of

There were gome amuflirg scenes enacted
at the office of the Provost Marshal on Satur
day morning, in consequence of the rather
unexpected order requiring every individual
to obtain a pass before leaving town. The
lUEh for passts commenced at an early hour,
end must have taken Major McKlnetry some
what by enrprke. But liie a skillful General,
he proved equal to the emergency. Every
paea had to be written for the individual ap
plying. This was done by one of the clerks,
after which it had to be taken to the Provoat
Marshal, McKinstiy, for his signature. This
process being found altogether too slow to
accc mmedste tbemsh of passengers going
East, the Marshal caused ~the announcement
to be made that all passenger© going East on
the morning trains would be allowed to leave
the city without passes, This decimated the
crowd somewhat, but large numbers intend
ing to go out- on the Iron Mountain, Pacific
and Ncrlh Missouri Roads, remained to be
attended to. There was but one alternative.
The Provost Marshal pulled off his coat, seated
himself at h's desk and was speedily surround
ed bj a dense crowd, aimed with passes ob
ta'ned from the Clerk, and only awaiting
the simple signature of “J, H. McKmstrv,”
Ac. As each individual submitted his pass,
the Provost Marshal signed his name, look
ing all the while witiT his keen, searchiog
tjes directly at the applicant, and propound
h g two or three inquiries, such, for instance,
as the following, to a young and smart look
ing chap who bed a pass for Springfield:
*■ Going to Springfield ? ” “Yea,sir,” “Live
there?” “Yes, sir,” (in an undertone).
“Not very profitable to be a Minute Mao, is
it ?” (No reply, but a slightly confused and
indignant look.) In the meantime the signa
ture has been affixed to the pass, in a bold
fcai d. Directly the young man is iu posses
sion of the important “open sesame,” and is
leaving the room, when down falls she hand
cl the P/ovst Marshal upon a little silver bell
at his side, and simultaneously he cries out,
“ Spot! ” Two minutes later, and the young
men heund for Springfield is requested by
an officer to consider himself as under arrest.
What follows, is, of course, outside the ken
of the reporter. The cries of “spot ” were
numerous during the Provost Marshal’s eight
hours’ sitting, lor the purpose of signing
passes, on Saturday.
A tall and red faced soldier forced his way
through the crowd to the Msjot’a side, and
presented a letter of some sort. He had a
“ superfluity ”of rigging In the shape of can
teens, &c., slung over his shoulders,and these
became entangled in such a manner that one
of the canteen corks fell ont, and directly af
ter, a very strong odor of whisky prevailed.
The Provost Marshal snuffed it very quickly.
Looking somewhat ferociously at the soldier,
he demanded, “ Where did you {obtain that
whisky?” “Afriend gave it tome.” “1M
learn your friends not to give you whisky,”
Siid the Picvoet Marshal, as he gave orders to
Us Adjutant to place the soldier under arrest.

Tbe Sentence of Col.
log to Volunteer Officers*
The finding of the Court martial in the case
of Colonel McCann. has been promulgated.
After being approved by Gen. McClellan, the
sentence oi the Court ia that he be reprimand
ed from the Head-quarters of the General
commanding the Army of the Fotomac.
In executing this duty, General McClellan
says:
‘ 4 Tbe General commanding confirms the
finding and sentence of the Court; but, In do
ing so, he assumes that the sentence was made
thus light in consideration cf the inexperience
cf the accused. Col. McCunn, it would ap
pear from the record, is ignorant of the first
gnat principle which should guide all soldiers
cf whatever rank, viz.: Implicit obedience to
proper authority. The authority of Lieuten
ant Hunter, and his right to demand CoL Mc-
CTurn’s ia g, were most dear and unquestion
able. It was the authority directly delegated
through the Provost Marstal of the General
commanding this Army, and should have been
obeyed as respectfully and implicitly as ft the
d» mand had been made by the General in per
bce. The manner of the officer mating the
demand should have bad no influence, but the
Cclcnel should have obeyed the order respect
fully and promptly.
"if the manner of Lieut. Hunter was im
proper, and that it was so is by no means clear
to tbe General commanding, it was tue duty
ol Col. McCunn to have retained his self-pos
stssion and self respect, and to haye complied
with the direction to show his pass, trusting
to subsequent action for redress. Col. Mc-
Cunn showed by his demeanor, as it appears
on tbe record, that he has ytt to learn at least
tico things before he becomes competent to com
mand a regiment , and these are self-command
and respect for proper autfiority. The pass
shown by CcJ, McCann was improperiu form ,
and L : eui. Hunter was perfectly right in de
clining to recognize it? validity. The paper
submitted by CoL McCunn as his defence ia
in many respects irrelevant, and in others dis
creditable. The Court would have been en
tirely justified in refusing to receive it.
The General commanding fully approves the
finding of the Court, which characterizes the
conduct of CoL McCann as “prejudicial to
good order and military discipline,” and de
sires to t sprees the hope that this instance
will be a sufficient warning to hftn and all oth
er officers who may feef disposed to place
themselves in opposition to the constituted
military authorities. The finding of the Court
may be regarded as quite lenient, but the Gen
eral is prevented from remanding the case to
the Court, for reconsideration, partly because
the time of many valuable officers would
• thereby be consumed, and partly because he
Is willing to attribute Col. McCutsn’s conduct
• mainly to the feet of his being an inexperienced
soldier. This occasion is availed of to assure
all persons In. this Army, of whatever grade,
that discipline and implicit respect for author
ity will, at all hazards, be enforced. The Gen
• eral commanding is happy to state that the
vast majority of this army evince the most
soldierly and patriotic feeling, and that he ia
proud to command so noble a body of men.
The exceptions are few, indeed. CoL McCann
will resume Ms sword and bia duties,”
The punishment thus sternly inflicted can.
not bnt do much towards making commis-
BiOned cfficers more mindful of orders and
obedient to the rules of the service.

All Imperial Loan from the People of
France—Napoleon Receives Thirteen
Times more money than he asks for*
[Form the London Poet (Government organ)Aug.7]
The French Minister of Finance has pub
listed a second report to the Emperor on the
subject cf the French Treasury bonds, issued
for the payment cf the promised subventions
to the railways. In this additional report M.
deForcade [states at length the intentions of
the Government as to the acceptance and ap
plication of the loan. The Minister may well
congratulate his master on the manner ia
which this new species of security has been
received by the French public. The subscrip
tions have exceeded the amount of ths bonds
not less than thirteen times. The French
Government, in order to stimulate enterprise
;n their own country, had resolved to raise a
sum of £6,000,000, or 150.000.000f on their o sea
guarantee of an interest of 5 per cent. This
loan was to be rased in the shape of Treasury
bonds of the nominal value of 500 francs each,
but which were to be issued at 440 francs.
The number of bonds accordingly amounted
to 300,000. But instead of the subscriptions
being limited by the amount required by the
Government for the assistance of the railways,
tbe number of bonds applied for by the pub
lic has exceeded four millions. The Govern
ment rtquired a sum in net value of 132,000,-
000 francs, and the subscriptions reached the
value of 4,000,000,000 francs. This is one
of tbe most it markable instances not only
of the wealth and floating capital existing
in France at this moment, which perhaps,
might have b-en presumed, but also of tho
financial credit cf the Government It in
finitely surpasses our own recent experience
In regard to money required for reproductive
works in Indk. The late loan of the Indian
Government amounted to £5,000,000, and the
subscriptions were found to be somewhat in
excess of £20,000,000. This was taken to
form a highly favorable indication of tbe state
of our own money market. Bnt in the pres
ent instance the French Government have re
quired lees than £6,000,000, and they have re
ceived subscriptions to the amount of £30,-
OCO.OOO. It is commonly said that the French
Government is an extravagant Government;
and no doubt the public expenditure is much
greater now than It was during the reign of
Louis Philippe. But was there ever such an
instance of confidence In the Government dur
ing that reign ? We believe that there is no
piece dent in French history of such an amount
ever having been subscribed for at any one
time, with the exception of the loan demanded
two years ago for the expenses of the Italian
campaign. Then, Mao, £80,000,000 were sub
scribed, the amount required being one-fourth
cf it. But in this case the subscriptions ex
ceed the demand not only four times bnt four
teen.
The details relating to the subscriptions
present several highly interesting considera
tions in regard to the class of the subscribers
and the amounts of individual subscriptions
The subscribers in Paris are in a great minor
ity cf the total number of subscribers through
cut France; but they nevertheless subscribed
forthegreat majority of the bonds applied
for. The subscribers in Paris formed but one
tevenih of the whole number, yet their sub
scriptions were three-fourths of the number
oi bonds applied for.
The Confederates at Leesburg,
Whst was considered probable some weeks
ago seems now to be realized—that the Con
federates have concentrated a considerable
body oi troops at Leesburg, only four miles
frem the Potomac, and thirty miles from this
city. doubtless with a view to divert
attention; hut we hare no doubt our military
authorities know when and how to hare

my, and family; Captain Myers, United Stales
Aimj; Captain Hancock, United States Ar
my, and family ; and Major Hnngpaftord, who
servedin the Mexican war, and goes East to
jeis the Federal army.
The cemand for money for to day's steamer
was not urgent,.but sufficiently active to ena
ble bankers to obtain 2 percent, for the usual
short paper accommodation.
Belief committees, composed of former
residents of New York, most of the New Eng
land States and Michigan, are organized in Sin
Francisco, for tie purpose of receiving sub
scriptions to aid the families of volunteers
from the States named.
The bedv of Terrence Bellew McManus, one
of the Irish exiles cfltfS, was shipped to-day
by the Uncle Sam, fur Ireland via New York.
The Irish residents of San Francisco joined in
a grand funeral demonstration previous to
placing the body on the steamer.
There are said to be a good many sympathi
zers with secession in Nevada Territory. Tney
held a convention at Silver City on ine 201b,
and adopted resolutions reaffirming the Breck
irrideeßaltimore platform; in favor of the
preservation of the Union; the duty of Ter
ritories toyield obedience to the constitution
al acts of Congress; recognizing Crittenden’s
Compromise as sound; a Uaion formed in
peace, not maintained by force; the duty of
the General Government to establish a branch
mint, atdto provide for entering lands, and
leave the mineral lands to private enterprise.
Also the following:
Sesclvtd, That the President of the United
States has been guilty of violation of the Consti
tution and usurpation of power m borrowing and
appropriating money, reuing arnres and increas
ing tbe navy, without the authority of Congress:
and that snch acts are dangerous to liberty, and
tend to convert the Government into a military
despotism.
Twenty delegates were present. Judge Bry
an and Judge Gradlebangh, of Carson, and J.
Williams, cf the Enterprise newspaper, have
announced themselves as candidates to Con
gress from Nevada Territory.
The steamer Cortez, from Portland, Oregon,
with dates to the 16th Inst-, brings a report
that all the Indian tribes east of the Cascade
Mountains, including the Nez Perces, are be
lieved to be preparing for war upon the whites.
Miners were leaving the Nez Ferces region,
and a number of murders were reported.
The Portland Times, in commenting on this
news, says there are between 5,000 and 6,000
people in the Nez Perces region of country,
out they are poorly armed, and should the dif
ferent tribes of Indiana join together and
make war upon the whites, as it is reported
they will do, we fear that before arms and am
munition can reach them they will be obliged
to leave the mining region for the winter.
Outside Tenders of Troops,
The reputation our State has gained for care
of her troops and promptness in putting them,
into the field, has never beea more strikingly
attested than within the past few days. Two
Ohio regiments have been tendered Gov. Morton,
hut refused, because he was unwilling to give
even such an assent to the impeachment of
the good conduct of their own State adminis
tration implied in the tender.— lndianapolis

Davis on Insurrection. —Jeff, Davis when
Secretary of War Lad no mercy for inaurrec
tion. When the Topeka Convention assumed
authority over the Territory of Kansas, Mr.
Davis called for two regiments from Kentucky
to be ready at the call of Gen. Persifer Smith,
and wrote to that officer as follow©:
The position cf the insurgents ie that of open
rebellion against the lass and constitutional
authorities, with such manifestations of a purpose
to s; read devastation over the land, as no logger
justifies further hesitation or indulgence. Patriot
ism and humanity alike require that the rebellion
should be crushed.
Davis now precisely in the same position,
and yet he asks to be “ let alone,” that he may
innocently indulge his inclinafcionfor breaking
up the Government, without incurring the
penalties for such causeless mischief and wick
edness.—Philadelphia Ledger,
Sspr There was a proposition to offer pray
ers in a rural district for rain, when an honest
old Dutchman, who had a large farm, stated
bis “views” to the meeting in this way:
“Dr-re ish some vields along der hillsdere
dat ish pretty dry, I wish you bray for some
roinondem; but you needn’t bray for any
more vater on der moisht black grousd under
