So far" as the Union and American is sup posed to "peak tbe sentiment of tbe Tennessee Democracy on questions of currency, that party is in favor ? of an exclusive gold and "lrer currency. When the money panic came last fall, and (the banks began to bend and break before the storm, the Union and American began a course of the most violent warfare npon the lmnks. which was partici pated in by a number of the members of the Legislature, who were of ils way of thinking or under ita control. But this warfare amounted practically to little or nothing. Since then, at intervals, the Union and Amer ican, has returned to tbe attack, re-etated its grounds In less equivocal terms and rehashed its denunciations. With a view to get at precisely what effective course it would pursue to rid the State of banks, we put certain questions, from its answers to which and its subsequent explanations, we are "explicitly" informed: 1, That it is opposed f tbe re-cbartering of any old banks, or incorporating any new ones. 2, That it is in favor of permitting all banks at pre sent in existence to continue till their charters expire and 3. By this slow and gradual process to arrive at a metallic cur rencv. Now, let it be remembered that toe cnarters of the Union and Planters' Banks expire on fie 1st of January, 1863; that of the State Bank 1st of January, 1868, and those of the other stock banks of the State at various pe riods extending to 1881. "We cannot, there f re, arrive at an exclusive specie currency be fore the year 1881, provided tbe bank or banks whose charters extend to that period a 'tall choose to exercice their riKhts, and shall d nothing to forfeit them. - This is the true ground the Union anil American occupies, not withstanding its violent abuse of banks and ita infinite love of specie. Indeed, we can mt see how it could well take different ground, in view of the vested rights of the banks, except in the case of the State Bank. Two Governors and several of tbe Bank's Presidents have recommended tbe speedy winding up of that concern, and the Union and American itself has expended no inconsid erable amount of its zeal to have tbe same thing accomplished. We submit whether it is entirely consistent in now proposing to con tinue that institution till it charter expires. Considering the capital employed in that bank and its branches, and the very larjje a mount f its circulation, we should suppose if the Union and American were sincere in its desire for a specie currency, it would favor the immediate extinction of that bank in or der that gold and silver might take tbe place of its paper issues. What may be the finan cial condition of the country, tbe quantity of sp;ie, and the necessities of trade and com merce at the expiration of the several bank charters in this State, it is not easy to fore tell, and it is therefore difficult to utter opin ions, which shall govern a state of things of which we have no positive knowledge. The exigencies of a dominant party do not, however, always admit of such delay and de liberation as prudence would require. It sometimes becomes necessary for mere parti zans to avail themselves of popular dissatis faction, to decry a principle or to denounce a syst'.-m, which may have been abused in its practical working. This, we are inclined to think, was the case during the crisis through which we have recently passed, and much of the abuse that has been directed against banks has been mere clap-trap. But tbe Union and A merican propounds us the following interrogatories: '1st. Are you in favor of rechartering the Union and Planters' Banks? 2d. Are you in favor of winding up the Bank of Tennessee; and if so, at what time and by wbat process? 3d. Are yoi in favor of continuing all the stock and free banks now in existence, and are you in favor of chartering any more banks? 4th. Are you satisfied with our present fed eral sub-treasury sysU-m; or do you agree with Mr. Bell that it has proven a failure, and that a United States Bank should be char tered in ita stead?" In answering, we cannot say that we know wbat may be the opinions of the American party of Tennessee, and therefore cannot as sume - to epeak for it. We simply give ex pression to our individual opinions, which may be modified on further consideration and reflection. We do not profess to have con sidered the subject in all its aspects, and might well decline a categorical answer. But our neighbors seem anxious to hear from us on tbe subject, and for their especial accommoda tion we frankly reply to the first question affirmatively. To the second, we say that we re of opiuion that tbe State should not en gage in banking, for the reason that it is of doubtful legality and doubtful policy. But since tbe State has engaged in it, she should not so suddenly discontinue it as to subject herself to loss or her citizens to inconven ience. If the Union and Planter' Banks should be rechartered it is probable that the State Batik, could be put in a condition of gradual liquidation, so as to avoid lossto herself or inconvenience to tbe citizens, in which event we should be in favor of that step. To the third question, we have to say that we are opposed to the violent interfer ence with vested rights, and to the chartering of any more banks, unlet-s it should appear for the best interests of tbe people, and not for the mere accommodation of reckless money adventurers. The fourth question, we at present decline to discuss, for it does not come within the scope of State policy, and iU present discussion could result in no practical benefit to tba people, and would fail to in terest our readers. If, nevertheless, the ques tion of a National Hunk shall be raied in such a manner as that it shall become a prac tical question In-fore the p'-ople, thn we will not hesitate to take a position. To all which we respectfully add that the I 'hum mid American caunot force us into tbe position of defending all bank, and of a rot ten shin-plaster currency, such as iU party in other States iuaugurattd at tbe downfall of the old natioual bank, lu re-chartering tha Union and Planter' Banks, we would Introduce additional limitations and restric tions, and not reeuact, in kite verba, their pre vent charters. We are unalterably opposed to worthless banks but believe that sound banks are possible, and uecesaary to the cud of a prosperous commerce, and an advanced civilization. We would banish small notes, aay under ten or twenty dollars, from tbe State and make all notes convertible into specie at the option of the holder. We would confine a majority of stockholders to citizens of our own state, and put an effectual check on the facilities of expauaioa and con traction. And there are many other of tbe details which It Is now necessary to enu merate. It is our opinion that good bank are possible, and such only we advocate all other we utterly aunor. ffT" Th Secretary of War has dispatched Mr. W. B.

Ilis candidate, Mr. James M.

The comet which is now visible in the north-wesfrceion of tho. heavens a short time after sunset, was first discovered on the 2d of last June, by Prof. Donati, in Florence, Italy. It was also "discovered by IIexry M. Park HiRMT. Km., of Pertb-Ambov. New Jersey, June 29. A very striking characteristic of this comet was, when first discovered, its extremely slow motion. Tbe great distance of the comet, and the direction of its motion, as seen from the earth combined to render its apparent geocentric motion very small In consequence of its slowness of motion, its period of visibility will be very great. It has already been visible through a telescope near two months and a half; and it will probably remain in sight for a considerable length of time yet. Tbe head or ttar of the comet, appears abont equal to a star of the second magnitude; and as ithasnotyet reach ed the perihelion (that point nearest to the sun) of its orbit, it will yet be considerably brighter, and present rplendid appearance Its tail, as viewed with a small telescope magnifying alMut eight times, was about 4 or 5 degs.'in length on Sunday evening, the 12th of Septemler. It is a well-known fact, however, that the tail has a much greater length immediately after the perihelion passage than at any other time; and hence we may expect that its length will be much more considerable than at present. This is the fifth comet discovered since the beginning of 1&"8, the first of which was discovere d on the 4th of January; but as tbe first four will form the subject for another article, we will say no more about them here. The comet now visible will pass its perihelion according to the elements of Mr. CJkokok Suable, Assistant at the Dudley Olservatory on the 13th of September. The psiralHilic elements of a comet's orbit are six in numbi r, namely: time of perihelion passage. longitude of the perihelion, longitude of ascending node, inclination or the plane ot its orbit to the plane of the ecliptic. thep rihelit n distance, and the direction of its motion. If the motion be m the same direction around the sun as the motion of planets, it is said to be direct; if in the opposite direction, retrograde. Tbe longitude of the perihelion of this comet is about 30 deg., and of the ascending node about 17C deg. The inclination is about 68 deg. The perihelion distance is about 40, 000.000 miles, or a little greater than the mean distance of Mercury from the Sun. Its motion is retrograde, so that its apparent motion is from right to left, as seen at this time. The velocity of the comet, when at its perihelion, will be about 150,000 miles per hour. Ms distance from the Earth at this time, roughlv estimated, is about 87,000.000 miles. Its tail is at least 6,000.000 miles in length. Several paralmlic elements have been com puted, but hs th' se differ considerably from each other it is thought, with much probabili ty, that the comet moves in an elipse of moderate eccentricity, and hence that its time of revolution around the sun is not very great. The elements correspond with those ot the first comet of 1827, and with those of 1764. This will make the period of revolution 31 years. The period of 63 years compre hended between 1764 and 1827 will embrace two returns to its perihelion. The difference of half a year is within the limits of perturba tion. This will make its return, previous to 1827, in 1795. If this be its true period, its next return may 1m expected about 18H9 or 1800. Time will soon determine these questions. With this period its mean dis tance from the sun will be about the same as that of Saturn; and when it is in the aphelion (greatest distance from the sun) of its orbit, it will be about the mean distance of Uranus. David Trowbridge. I'ERkY ClTT, X. Y-, Sept. 12. P. S. The best view of the comet can be had in the morning, about 3 J or 4 o'clock. Tbe direction of its tail points toward the north polar star. Trouble in the Virginia Democracy. It is somewhat amusing to observe the bitter animosity and disaffection which exists among the democracy of Virginia. It is emphatically a house divided against itself. Prominent politicians and journals are completely at loggerheads. Seeing this unprofitable condition of things, the Alex andria (Virginia) Seutinal has become troubl ed, and says: 'The new system of procedure towards mem Iters of their own party adopted by a number of the Democratic journals of our State, and particularly by some of the Rich mond editors, is by no means commendiug itself to the approbation of the people, or vindicating its wisdom by its results. The fact is, we view these demonstrations both with pain and alarm; and unless the calm, impartial, and disinterested mass of the party come to the rescue, there is great danger, there is almost a certainty, that the invinci ble, indivisible phalanx of the Virginia De mocracy will speedily be replaced by discor dant and belligerent factions. "Already we see men high in position among the Democrats of the State, criticised and assailed with pens as unsparing as bave hitherto been used only by our roughest writers against our most daring foes. This is indeed a most remarkable illustration of the principle of fraternity, and must work out tbe most unhappy consequeuces. Wbat is to become of nil army that delights to shoot down its own tr'nl and trusted officers?" If discord, such as here referred to, existed alone in Virginia Democracy, the power of cohesive attraction, so well understood by democrats of tbe old Dominion, would soon effect its cure; but a similar want of harmony is apparent throughout our Union. It is a spoils contest, without principle a ship labor ing at sea with mutiny on board. Who can otherwise expect than that such marauders, seeking plunder, will "delight to shoot down their officers?" Baltimore Patriot Tbe Pruaprct of Working (lie Present Cable. The Scientific American, speaking of the ocean telegraphing, and the difficulties ex perienced in working the Atlantic Cable, says: -Mr. Field attributes the diffiVnlties to the nse of the instruments of Professors White bouse and Tbompsou, but slates that these will soon la removed, and those of Professor Hughr will be substituted. In reference to this telegraph, he say, 'there is no reason- tie doubt that Professor Hughes will be able to transmit intelligence through the cable reliably at the rate of about three hundred words per minute. Mr. rield, we think, is inconsiderate in hip statements. In eudeavors to send simple currents through tbe ocean cable, these bave omet lines censed to flow for a considerable period ot tim", without any apparent cause; then they would tlo-v aimin. iu the same in explicable manner. As Hughe' Instrument does not geuerate, but Is operated by these currents. It cannot remedy this difficulty, a It ia one w Inch belong to the cable, not to tbe operating instruments. Tbe llugbW telegrapo also requires a strong current. whereas the current sent through tbe cable bave been very feeble. The correct opera tion of this telegraph depend on the sim ultaneous revolution or a type wheel in Ireland and another in Newfoundland. If one revolves au inataut faster than the other a wrong ntensnge is aure to be m-iiL.

We notice a more general demand, especially from the West; Ohio and the Northwest being more fnlJy represented. Buyers are freely discounting their bills, and several houses re port a better class of purchasers than at any previous week this year. This is gratifying, and evidences that our country merchants are gradually becoming freed of their monetary difficulties, and better able to avail themselves of the trade which is expected during tbe winter. Tbe Southerners are quietly leaving us, rather earlier than usual; which is ac counted for by the resolution of many to buy sparingly until they can see their way clearer it being an easy matter, in the pre sent abundant facilities for transportation, to make new additions to their stocks if the wants of their customers seem to warrant it. The jobbers have done a good business, and tbey now begin to bave more confidence in tbe future. The gradual improvement in the prices of many of the leading fabrics has tended much to infuse a feeling of cheerful ness among the trade. The heavy inquiries : from the West have been confined chiefly to plain staple goods these being better suited to the spirit of retrenchment so general throughout that section. Western collections, we understand, show some improvement, but are still largely behind. The recuperative energies of the Northwest bave suffered some what from the partial failure of the crops, which fact, taken in connection with the very abundant European harvest, increases the ne cessity of continued indulgence and caution on the part of both trader and eastern mer chant. The commission houses are not doing much business: in fact, some, we notice, are quite idle. Acircnlar has been addressed to us. which informs us of tbe organization of a "Manu facturers' Cloth Hall," at No. 22 Broad street, in this city. As there appears to be a little misapprehension as to the intentions of those who have started this new feature of the dry goods interest, we have taken some pains to inquire into it. It is 3ultantially modelled after tbe cloth halls of Manchester, or rather an exchange, by which the manufacturer is brought more closely in contact with the con sumer, dispensing to some extent with tlie commission dealer. For a long time the pro posed change has been urged, and it now seems to be approaching realization. There are many facts that can be produced which will tend to establish tbe feasibility of the new organization, and we are not surprised to see the increasing attention which it is re ceiving from all concerned. The main features of the system are deriv ed from the charter of the New York Ware housing Company, which has a capital of $300,000. The important privilege which this company possesses is the legal negotiabil ity of the warehouse receipt, which is avail able for raising funds. Without going so far as do many manufacturers, we are willing to concede to the new system much considera tion and hearty encouragement, on tbe same grounds that we support a Board of Trade, a Chamber of Commerce, or a Corn Exchange. The beneficial influence of these institutions upon our commercial prosperity is admitted on all sides, and we do not tee why the same principle, introduced into the dry goods in terest, cannot be attended with a like result. The trade has always been more or less scattered and irregular. What we want is concentration of the business, reducing it to one concern, and the present plan appears to be especially applicable to the exigency. Tbe unbroken prosperity of the manufacturers of Manchester is, no doubt, owing iu a degree to the Cloth Hall system, and in view of Un depressed condition of our manufacturers, the plan is worthy of more than ordinary atten tion. A significant item in the annual statistics of the cotton trade is the large increase this year 3&1,000 bales in the exports to Great Britain, while our own spinners have taken only 452,18.1 bales, which is 213,533 bales less than the previous year.

The confirmation of the advices respecting the peace with China is at hand, but there being so little known of the details of the treaty, there is at the mo ment but few inducements for large opera tions. We are all aware that a large and prosperous trade with China must follow, but yet shippers are disposed to await further in formation. Sheetings and Shirtings. There is a fair business doing in brown, but we are unable to see how the manufacturer makes any pro fit at present prices. Heavy goods are sell ing at 8Jc. The production is now on a more limited scale; the rise in cotton checks mak ing. Bleached sheetings are quite scarce; and we notice much buoyancy in prices. The stock is small, which is owing chiefly to the suspension of work in the bleacheries during the past six months. Contracts for 72 by SO have been made for future delivery. These goods are now mostly sold direct to the distri buting houses. Denims and Stripes. Prices have not im proved. The margin for profit is now very light, the rise in the raw material having en hanced the cost considerably. The shipments to the South American market have been un usually small this year. Printing Cloths are quoted a litte lower. The printers are not taking so many as form erly. The introduction of tbe topical figures does not favor free purchasers. They find that this work consumes much more time than they would wish, although they bave no reason to complain of the favor in which the topical style is received by all classes of buy ers. Much improvement in prints has been made within a year or two. We quote the providence market aa follows. The following are the sales for the week : J'iccea. 0,000 403, privat frms 7,000 64rt?64, 6Hc S.OOO e44, Stc. 4,000 60rfi8, private t'rma 8,000 6Jgj64, 6,c. 3,000 fi4.4, 5j'o. 2.000 60c!M),private t'rma 2,0O04S3,privat t'rma 36,000 pieces. - Woolens. The marked improvement in the make of American Cassimeres is, we are pleased to see, appreciated; and there is a quick sale for all choice makes, with orders ahead. The inferior qualities are not much sought after. There is beginning to-be some inquiry for heavy Pilots and Petershams of English make. Our own heavy overcoatings are doing very well. AiOTiov Sales. Tbe offering of 1,052 lots of rich ribltons, yesterday and to-day, proves very attractive. The choice fancy styles bring fair bids.

Mr. Editor : I have fed this plant to all kinds of stock for tbe four past seasons, in every stage of its growth green, ripe, and cured as fodder. I have found it the best soiling plant I ever raised horses, mnles, sheep, swine, goats, and cattle rapidly fatten ing wben fed on it. I fed two hundred and fifty bushels of the seed during the past win ter to sheep, goats, and poultry, and I attach the relative value of oats to it as winter food for these animals. In April last I sowed twenty acres broadcast in sugar millet, in tending it as a pasture for calves and milch cows. On the first of July I turned the milch cows, sheep, goats, calves, swine, and geese upon it. and have not lost a single animal. They have all improved rapidly; and, al though I have large numbers on tbe field, the herbage bids fair to keep ahead of all de mands made on it, I made it a point to take my animals from good pastures, and, feeding them well before turning tbem in, allowing them a plenty of salt. If a half-starved cow is turned on wheat, peas, or Indian corn, she is just as likely to die from over-eating these crops as she is from Chinese sugar-cane. The disease which kills cattle when over-fed on green food in .a hungry state is termed hoove, the best cure for which is a drench of a pint of salt dissolved in a gallon of water. This will relieve an animal sometimes in a minute. Peas, of all green food, is the most danger ous, from the flatulent nature of the plant. I have frequently seen half a dozen cows die in a few hours after they were turned into a luxuriant pea-field in the fall, and as fre quently have seen others relieved by the above dose. A cow which, like the asses of Ephraim, had been feeding on the east wind during the winter, and grazed uprn the road-sides and bushes, might be expected to die from joy af ter an over-feed of sugar millet. I have sowed broadcast at the rate of one and a half bushels of sugar-cane seed to the acre a meadow which I intended to convert into good nutritious hay for winter food. I think more cows will die for the want of this food in our State than from being overfed on it. I do not think, with the proper precautions, it is in any wise more dangerous than any other green food we are accustomed to feed, and would advise its extended use as a soiling and bay crop in tbe South. A. G. Scmner, Pomaria, S. C. Incident of City Life. The New York correspondent of the Charleston Ouurier gives the following inter esting incident, under date of tbe 23d Au gust, about a valuable piece of property in New York, now known as the Palace Garden, the old manor house being occupied for sa loons, refreshments, &c: Quite a romance is connected with the life of a venerable lady who has just died. Mad. Toxelli departed this life last week and was buried yesterday. She was a native of this city, but married in early life a Frenchniau, who, at his death, left a large property. There were several children born to them. The family lived for a number of years, on what was then a farm in the country; but which is now in the very heart of the city. At the corner of Fourteenth street and Sixth Avenue, stands the old mansion which they inhabited. The old lady herself, lived there until aliout five years ago. This property was subsequently used as a nursery for the children of the poor; and at present, is known as the Palace Gardens. At the age of eighty years, Madame Tov xki.li left her sous and daughters, and build ing a fine bouse farther up town, in Fiftieth street, took to live with her a young man named . He was juvenile eiiough to be her grandson. Upon her decease, it was found that he inherits all of her vast proper ty, to the exclusion of her own children. At her funeral, yesterday, though her offspring were present, they bad nothing to say or do about it. Mr. Sciiermekhokn took their places. In addition to the Palace Gardens, which of themselves are a fortune, this old woman owned a great deal of other valuable property. There is no doubt but the question of ownership will be contested, and the entire romance of the case will be developed in the courts. The family of Tonelli is well-known by all the old families of the city, and this gives greater piquancy to the whole aflair. Two sons are prominently known, and one of the daughters married a gentleman of some distinction and wealth. Frightful Accident at the Ohio State Fair. Two persons were killed and several were wounded at the Ohio State fair at Sandusky on Wednesday. The Cincinnati Times says: Four celebrated roadsters were brought into the ring in competition for the prizes. The hub of one of the vehicles accidentally raked the wheel ot another, and in an instant split and tore from it every felloe. The horse attached to the broken sulky bounded off at a fearful Fpeed. As he ran fearfully around the circle, the mass of people rushed away from the enclosure. The borse, still dragging the broken vehicle, dashed against the enclosure, broke down tbe barrier, and pursued bis course. Turning suddenly to the left, he bounded in under the ladies' platform, where a number of men, women, and children, totally Ig norant of the cause ot confusion, were sitting. As he sprang among them be fell and his pro gress was stopped. The scene at this point at tbat time was fearful, men, women, and children flying in every direction, and the latter screaming with alarm. Several injured persona were picked up An old gentleman named Mallack was taken up fatally injured. He died in one hour and a half after tbe accident. A lady was sitting holding her little girl by the bands. Tbe horse fell upon them, and in rising again, kicked the child in tbe back. Tbe mother was pronounced not dangerous. The child died. Quite a number of others were hurt in the rash, but only slightly. A Leo-i-seb. ILmi $oii qui mat y pcnue, exclaimed one of England's tnonarcbs in the days of chivalry, as he gracefully presented a beautiful countess her garter, which had dropped from her leg in a ball-room. Whether tbe same motto may apply to a little incident that took place iu Pickering's fashionable store on Fourth street, we will leave to the sensitive imagination of the reader. A lady dressed in the extreme of fashion, her form and general appearance smackiug largely of the haul ton, dropped into the above famous emporium, which at tbe time was well filled with customers, and accosting one of the clerks requested to be shown some garters. As speedily as possible an as sortment of tuone much to lie envied elastic bandages were placed before her. when, sing ling out a pair, she, with the most charming and easy grace imaginable, elevated a foot of delicious symmetry upon a stool, and in the tnot tuuve manner proceeded to adjust them iu the usual place below the knee. The pro ceeding caused somewhat of a sensation among tuose present, operating, however, with dil fereut effect upon th feminine and male por tion of tbe lookers on, tbe latter being struck with the graceful shape of tbe leg, and en- joyiug the exhibition with much gusto, while the former blushed from their eyebrows to their own delicate understandings.
