The Futmre.
The recent conference at Niagara is pretty
'well understood, now that all the facts are
before us, and we can see for ourselves
everything that was done. The heroes of
the Whole OMIT are WM. CORNELL JEWETT
and GEORGE N. SANDERS ; Mr. GREELEY
merely volUnteered for the purpcise of
doing a humane and charitable act, and he
Is today in the eyes of the country a purer
patriot and Christian for having done so.
The practical results thus far may be sum
med up : Mr. JEWETT has obtained a great
amount of notoriety; Mr. SANDERS has had
fin opportunity to make mischief and write
insolent despatches, and Messrs. CLAY and
Tiox.come.E. have had a more piquant trip to
the Falls than they anticipated. The coun
try thanks Mr. LINCOLN for his grand de
-spatch, which shows that his faith and the
honor of the country arc free from any
suspicion of surrender or compromise. In
addition to this, thirty millions of people
have been discussing the propriety and
probability of peace.
When we entered upon the war it was
with a vague, uncertain purpqse. - We were
forced to take up arms—for an:emergency,
for three months, for three years, for the
var. We kept on fighting hilt mild, re
luctant way, striking at randoin, dealing
forth our resources with a niggard hand,
and repressing the martial spirit of our oWil
people. We recur with a smile to the or
ders of the War Department, in which
captains were to be at least- thirty-five
:3'ears of age, and generals fifty. We were
pelect in those clays. We controlled the
war; but now the war controls us, and -*e
feel, as we recur to the bloody events of
these latter years, that - we have passed
through a new, generation of experiences.
The wars we read of in history we have
had at our own doors—we haVe con
ducted and managed ourselves; and aS
though even history were tiresome, and
weary, and insipid, we have given it
a contest that will rival and in many
points excel the - great wars of- NAPO
LEON. We do not recur to this in any feel
fing of pride, for we would gladly effitce all
memory of the past, if by so doing the
dead men' Could be made to live, and the
!sorrow and gloom of many a household
could be dispelled. These are vain Wishes;
However.- In the dread presence of this
I
days, at leitst, the people of this nation
'have been looking to the end of the war,
And asking each other for counsel and sym
pathy. So far as JEWETT and SANT)Fats
are concerned, we merely laughed at their
insolence and buffoonery. They were
trifling fools. We could not but feel, how
ever, that they were trifling 'with what was
dear to every mother and wife and friend.
Niagara became a more important point
than Atlanta, and for two days, at least,
the morning newspapers paraded their
large type over peace and not over war.
Now we all know that peace must come
in time. As the President so tritely said,
"We cannot fight all the time." We
know that there must be certain conditions
of peace ; "liberal conditions," if we may
quote a plirase_of the 'President. We know.
that those conditions will be determined
by the situation of the armies when it is
...determined to stop fighting. If we have
possession of the whole Southern country,
'we should probably discuss no terms but
those referring to the confiscation of real
estate and the personal accountability of
rebel leaders. If the rebel army should he
in possession of the Susquehanna or the
Iluclson, then we should be compelled to
snake as good terms as our national honor
Avould admit. An army or a military
power may make terms to-day which
,would be refused to-morrow, and to-mor
row gladly accept what a third.day would be
haughtily refused. If Denmark had yielded
holstein a few months ago, she might
have retained Schleswig.. She preferred to
continue war, hoping for succor from un
grateful France and selfish, sordid Eng
land. 'What is the result? Both Schleswig
and Holstein have been taken, Jutland is
occupied, and Denmark would gladly make
peace by surrendering her two long-clutched
duchies. We do not anticipate any contin
gency of this kind in America, for our war
is neither territorial nor defensive. We are
pot fighting for roods and acres end rivers,
but for an idea called a form of govern
puent—republican institutions and freedom.
Where, then, in the future shall we look
for peace? What form must the negotia
tions take? Will the w•ar end by an act of
Congress, or a military proclamation, or a
treaty between
. diplomatists? Must we
look for the dove in Quebec, or Paris, or
Geneva ? Above all, what will be the
terms? We do not anticipate any question
of boundary lines, for no such point will
be admitted into the discussion. We do
not fight for boundaries, and therefore do
pot discuss them. We are not fighting to
establish a certain policy of administration,
for all such subjects are merely incidents
of the war, and neither among the causes
or the effects. We began this contest for
one purpose, and we must follow that to
the end. •We began the war to maintain
the integrity of the Union, and whenever
the position of our armies is such that we
play regard its integrity as an assured fact,
Ave may enter into negotiations. When
the Government is no longer assailed by an
armed force we may inaugurate negotia-
tions for peace. Collateral questions may
arise, but they will be disposed• of as the
.discussions mature. In the meantime the
Mar must progress until we reach that
point. All the measures of war must be
rigorously enforced—emancipation, confis
pation, the arming of the . black man, the
destruction of slavery, battles upon land
and sea. This is the duty of The Present.
The duty of The Future will be taught in
good time.
The 'Results of Rebel Victory.
The political importance of the military
situation is better understood, it is probable,
la the South than at the North. Before the
year began the people of the Southern
States were assured that they would have
Itot only the sympathy. but the aid of a pow
erful party in the North, nor, when this as
purance was proved:to be . false, did the re
bels lose the hope that with the defeat of
the Union armies this party would bc able
to interfere `with authority. Eveiy politi
cal struggle in the free States has excited
the interest of the rebels, and as it resulted
for or against the Administration, has in
creased their hopes or their despondency.
Upon this principle they have repeatedly
urged the rebel Government to invade the
North, predicting that a successful invasion
would give the party in the North such a
vast influence that it would be able to end
the lvar at once.
Never did this argument. present itself to
the Southern mind so forcibly as now.
While SIIERMAIT I S army actually holds
Atlanta in its grasp, the Atlanta Appeal, a
vigorous little paper, finds time to discuss
the probable political results of the battle
to be fought for the possession of that im
portant city. " The greatest battle of the
war," it says, "will probably be fought in
the immediate vicinity of Atlanta. Its re
sult determines that of the pending Northern
Presidential election. If-we are victorious,
the Peace party will triumph; Lmooprz's
Administration is a failure, and peace and
Southern independence are, the , immediate
results.. While we are not disposed to
underestimate the importance of holding
Atlanta as a strategic position, yet the fact
of the city itself is "a question of minor im
port when compared with other necessary
national results- 1 ' Upon these grounds the
rebel soldiers arc urged to fight With that
peculiar emphasis for Which the _Appeal is`,
celebrated. It is singular and worthy of
notice that a great rebel victory . is ohiefly
desired because it is believed it would elect
Mr. VALEANDiona* Gen,' McCLELLAN, or
'whoever may be :the candidate of the
Chicago Convention.
Men for the Southern Emergency.
From some mysterious and sequestered
spot of this sylvan State we have heard
from time to time the voice, as ‘ it were, of
a *patriarch and a hermit. It reseinbled
that of the sluggard, inasmuch as it was the
voice of one. nolitically dead, complaining,
that he bad been waked too soon. Again
we hear this echo from the tombs, but this
time its liveliness is astonishing. CrA.M.E'S
BUCHANAN speaks, as if all the thunders of
the terrible catastrophe wrought by his
own trembling hand could not stun him
into silence. He is writing letters, so the
Herald informs us, advocating for the Chi
cago nominations such gentlemen as Judge
SAMUEL Nimsox, and that enormous young
patriot, Mr. VoonnEEs, of Indiana. As it
would bet impossible, 'even by sending 'a
special missionary for the purpose, to con
vince Mr. BUCHANAN that he is mtbrally
dead, by all means, then, let him lie heard
where dead things will be in fashion—in
the Chicago Convention.
But Mr. Bncit.AN - Ax;is. modest in propos
ing any other candidate than himself in an
emergency where it is desired that one shall
be found, able according to the limit of the
constitutional Democratic idea, to confer
the greatest ruin upon the greatest number.
Such a candidate, undoubtedly, would be
JAMESBUCHANAN. We know of no person
upon - whom the party devoted to peace have
greater claims, or Who, in turn, has greater
chums upon his party. Of all the ex-Pre
sidents, who are to pass like Banquo's suc
cession hefoie the Chicago Convention,
there is no character so individual as that
of Mr. BUCE.ANAN. If another ex-Presi
dent has accomplished nothing for his
country, Mr. BUCHANAN has inflicted 'a
greater degree of nothing—so infinite an
amount, indeed, .that. his conduct has be
come crime. if other es-Presidents have
helped to ruin the North, Mr. BUCHANAN
has done a little more than any other man
to ruin both North and South. Be is ex
ac;tly the man to make such a peace as
would gladden the hearts of the brothers
WooD. As formerly he did so much
to make Secession successful, who would
DOW do more to see the Confederacy
independent? For pungent fossilage, and
stony.double-deadedness, who will compare
with the Wise man of Wheatland ? As
it seems the ambition ofthe leaders of the
Democracy to select a good dead-and-aliic
ticket, we beg to propose the following, as
the most proper to be imagined : For Presi
dent, JANES BUCHANAN, of Pennsylvania;
for Vice President, CLEMENT L. VALT.,AN-
DiCHAM, of Ohio. Let the' Peace Demo-
vain to attempt imagining what Et urs
peculiar enthusiasm these names would
awaken throughout theNcirth, and, indeed,'
the South. Thesegentlemen are undoubtedly
the most perfect dead-and-living representa
tives of the Peace idea; they are respectively
the martyr and the hero of Peace. Under
such a banner the cause of the North would
be that of the. South, and we should have the
Union again as it was in the good time of
J.K317.5 BucniaTAN. Nevertheless, we fear
Mr. VALLANDIGLIAM'S party will be no truer
to its prophets than other parties in history;
and some "available man" will be the
choice of the Convention. Here we must
pause, at fault—for who can tell us that
available man ? Of nominees there are
hundreds, but which of the able gentlemen
will suit the purpose, it will be at least very
difficult to decide. Let us inquire:
First, we have General GEORGE B.
McCLELLAii, of New Jersey, first in peace
if not first in war. But within the last few
weeks there has been.a general disposition
to ignore this military statesman, in spite;,
of his vaunted popularity. Viewing this
fact, General Ma:LEI:LAN will, of course,
decline to be a candidate.
Next in memory is ex-President Fru,
sronE, whose intellectual* quality has so
sadly deteriorated since DANIEL WEBSTER
was his Secretary of State. In the pecu
liar merits for which he is esteemed by the
Peace party, Mr. BUCHANAN is unquestion
ably his superior. Long retirement, we
fear, has nearly destroyed his volition, and
the burden of office would be unwelcome
to his customary ease.
A more live, but not so available a gen
tleman is ex-President PrERCE, whose cor
respondence with JEFFERSON DAVIS has
been unfortunately interrupted by the war.
We entertain no doubt that Mr. PIERCE
is heartily desirous that hostilities should
cease ; and we believe that he would not
refuse a nomination. But he is in no desida
'return the equal of his distinguished succes
sor in the Presidency, and every one be
lieves that his nomination would ruin 9ie
ticket of his party.
Of other statesmen• there is no want in
iumber, but everything in quality. Ho
ittrio SEYstoun is the last man to be named
for any Office in the gift of a convention.
Judges, in these military days, are out of
the question, and BLActr, WOODWARD, and
NELSON .will scarcely be thought of for
even the Vice Presidency. The Senatorial
market promises as little, for there are
manifestly no Democratic leaders worthy
of the name. Of Representatives, there
arc many noisy, but few available, and
Wool), LONG, and the entire Democratic
force in Congress arc needed for the work
of canvassing. Of generals, there are none
at band but unfortunate brigadiers, brilliant
in nothing good or bad. At this rate, the
field for the Presidency is soon exhausted,
but that of the. Vice Presidency is more
fertile. Colorado JEws.rr, whose wild di
plomacy is the March-hare of politics, is,
we hear, the favored candidate of the
Southern peace commissioners; but it is
no secret that this indefatigable traveller
and writer has a host of enemies, and could .
hardly be termed an availability. For the
rest, all who will not do for. the Presidency
will readily suit the Vice Presidency. But
the question recurs, Who of all the great
Opposition Peace party is the available
man for the Presidency ?
No wonder that the Democratic leaders
are looking
. olttside of their party lines to
find
"The man who on the forehead of his fortune
Bears figures of renown and miracle.,,
Taut who will volunteer, or who can be
persuaded to become the coming man?
"Who is strong enough to carry the new
Democracy again into flower ? Not even
the " Atalantean shoulders " of General
SHERMAN can be niade available, for that
general is intensely devoted to war and to 'ar
bitrary arrests, and there is great danger that
he would put his Warwick in prison. GRA.I4i
IS too zealously minding his'own business
to be distUrbed by a nomination. bizeDr.
I and Ilmicocx desire to be no more than
good soldiers, and are actors too prominent
in the war to leave it before they have
finished their parts. For the time remain
ing, the leaders of the Opposition will de
vote themselves night and day to the study
of this baffling problem: " Wanted—a
man to save the party." Even the most
arbitrary War Democrat, we have every
reason to believe, will suit the purpose of a
large portion of the party, provided he is
willing to accept the responsibility. There
is no scruple on one side, and unscrupu
lousness is invited from the other. Who
will answer? Must the party in despair
take up its ancient hate, Gen. Fuzgowr ?
Death, rather than that, every true Peace
man would prefer. In this dilemma t .let the
Chicago Convention sit with closed doors,
and ransack its desperation. A ticket must
be made, whatever befalls.
The Threatened Invasion.
There is, undoubtedly, a strong rebel
column in the Shenandoah Valley. It is
probably stronger than that which recently
attempted the capture of Washington, for
the recent reinforcement of the United
States forces near the capitailPwould, of
course, deter the enemy from another in
vasion without corresponding reinforce
ment of their own. The very indefi
nite and confused accounts of the ad
vance on Harper's Ferry, and the retreat
of General HUNTER, concur in their indica
tions of the decided strength of the rebel
army., And why, indeed, should the ene
my attempt another invasion, so soon after
the comparative failure of the first, unless
they had good reason to believe that failure
could be retrieved-? We do not wish to be
thought alarmists, and we haveno faith in
many of the Baltimore reports, but we be
lieve that the situation on the border is
serious, and likely_ to become more seri
ous unless energetic measures are taken
speedily..
Even if the invading forces number but
thirty thousand men, it, will need more than
thirty thousand to oppose them success=
fully. It is almost always in the power of
such an army, largely composed of cavalry,
to avoid a general battle, to inflict great
injury upon the country they invade, and
to retreat in safety with their plunder.
But we do not think the estimate of the
enemy's strength at forty thousand is im.-
probable, and arc convinced, not only by
the facts revealed by the late raid, but-by
the general military situation in Virginia,
that a dangerous invasion is to be expected.
The Election on Tuesday.
It is extremely, important that the elec
tion about to take place on Tuesday
next should not be overlooked by our citi
zens. It seems to us that the loyal. papers
of this city have failed to devote that at
tention to the subject which its merits
should secure for it. The question whether
the soldiers have a right to exercise the
dearest privilege that freemen would de
sire, if question it can be called, is now
about to be finally decided, after months of
discussion and after lengthy legal opinions
have been given pro and con. If those
who believe that the performance of mill
..tary service is no bar to the enjoyment of
civil rights guaranteed by the Constitution
fail to give expression to such belief through
the ballot-box, on. Tuesday, the result of
the poll can bear no other interpretation
than this : That the people of Pennsylvania
have confirmed the infamous decision of
Mr. Justice WoonwAjni debarrinm soldiers
of the right of elective frandise. Penn
sylvania, if the sentiments of her citizens
are fairly and fully expressed, can never be
found endorsing such an absurd position.
Yetthere is possible danger that, from vari
ous causes, she may seem to assume stich a
ground. The enemies of the Government
arc very active and zealous. The Copper
head press was never more daring in out
spoken denunciations of the war and all
engaged in it; never more persistent in
printing base falsehoods calculated to array
the ignorant and evil-disposed in an atti
tude of hostility to the Administration, and
to every measure it can be construed into
favoring. ,On the other hand, our.own good
loyal people are by far too confident, when
the magnitude of the issue is considered.
The proposition that a patriotic citizen who
la" e inquisnea
no por
tion. of his right as a citizen to have a
voice in all matters pertaining to the exer
cise of the powers of that Government,
seems to be so self-evident, that loyal citi
zens of an easy turn arc apt to be im
pressed with the idea that its evident
truth is a complete guarantee that it will be
successfully asserted at the polls. Unfor
tunately error is oftentimes more persistent
than truth, and always more specious ; and
it will not do for us to recreate at Cape May
and Atlantic City, when election clay ar
rives, and rely ul)on the justice of our cause'
for its success. Every loyal citizen owes a
duty to his Government on Tuesday next,
and for the sake of the contest in Novem
ber next, if for no other consideration, he
should not fail to discharge it.

PROlir BALT/110AZ
The telegraph lines to Baltimore being under an
embargo by the Government, we avail ourselves of
the following information, derived from a well-in--
formed gentleman of that city, is regard to the lit
portant military movements now transpiring on the
Upper Potomic - • -
With the particulars of the abandonment of the
pursuit of the raiders by the Oth o,orps the public
are already familiar. It is now clearly ascertained
that as scfbn as the fact of the return of the Oth.
Corps towards Washington was commenced, the
rebels availed themselves of
_the important advan
tage thus presented, and their rear fell upon Gen.
Crook's command, near Winchester, with 'such
overpowering numbers es to compel that gallant
officer to retreat, losing a considerable number of
men in killed, wounded, and prisoners, as well as a
few gun,. The loss in amen is estimated at 1,000.
From all that our Informant could gather there
were but few guns lost, tho Ugh there seems to be no
doubt that the enemy did capture some.
With regard to the reported death of Gen. Kelly,
it is sufficient to say that he was not with Gen.
Crook, but was and atilt is at Cumberland.
Col. Mulligan'tt death was still reported at Bal
timore yesterday, but there is no authentic informa
tion on the subject.
With regard to the strength of the enemy, the
most reliable estimates of the entire force com
posing the recent raiding column do not make it
more than 10,000 or 17,000 men. It is now believed
that this column has. been reinforced to the extent
of 10,000 or 12,000 men, making the whole strength
of the rebel force now in the valley and hpon the
borders of the Upper Potomac between 25,000 and
30,000 men of all arms. This force is understood, in
well-informed quarters, to be under the command of
Gen. A. P. Hill, Gen. Early having, It is said, been
obliged to retire from active duty on account of his
wound bt caking out afresh, and ho has, it Is under:,
stood, been assigned to the command of the Rich
mond district.
Ai to the designs of this rebel force now on the
borders of Maryland (for ft is.belleved that, up to
this time, they have not crossed the Potomac, at
least in any force,) all is conjecture. The most pro
bable view is that they will attempt. mn extensive
raid into Pennsylvania, and, by making a great
show of strength, endeavor to force General Grant
to send away more of his army from before Peters
burg. In corroboration of this opinion expressed as
to the strength of the rebel force, our informant
states that, General (ook reported that the rebel
line of battle confronting him extended forir mites.
As to what the Government Is doing our Inform
ant states same. loots which cannot be particularly .
spoken of. It is known, however, that General,

Mr. Moses Taylor is one of the wealthiest mer
chants of our city, and a man who bears the very
highest character for integrity and honor. This ap
pointment was made known on Tuesday morning
and elicited warm commendation from all quarters.
The papers with one accord expressed their unqua
lified approbation, and probably no man could have
been chosen who would have been so universally
acceptable to our citizens. Mr. Cisco has filled the
office in the best possible manner, and his sumo
tor must necessarily be what it is hardly requisite
to say Mr. Taylor . is. It is, as .yet, uncertain
whether the latter will be able to accept the ap•
polatment.
It will be remeMbered 'that an application was
nade, a short time since,, for the discharge of
Diesers. - .Paimei; Bhmoy, and March from custody
in Fort Lafayette. • Judge Betts has now rendered

the ground that the prisoners were held by military
authorities, and were awaiting the action of miiita

ever to interfere for their removal.

in some quarters. "Mrs. Toodlea" will soon be

the affair." Mr. Greeley'a Gann& remark (in sub.
stance) that men might be publ'.o enemieswithout
treating each 'other Ilke black r suerds. had no such
bearing or application as rii'orc given to It.
The money market continues comparatively easy.
Money is plenty at seven per cont. on good colla„
torals. In some instances six per Cent. is accepted.
The financial plan of Mr. I essenden is not of a na
ture to disturb the money market, and as a natural
consequence all operations depending upon a con
stant supply of money. Ile only proposes to take
any capital the public may have no better use for at
7-30 in currency. This will attract a good deal of
money, and, aided by increased receipts from taxes
keep the Treasury fairly supplied. The assurance
that no more 6 'cent. wow-Dearing stocks will be
issued gives new value to the 5-208 and the Os of 1851
The advance in the 6 cents revives the inquiry for
10-105 at par, with interest added at the rate of 150 for
gold. The letter of Mr. Teseenden is creating the
most favorable impression upon all sides. The state
ments regarding the operation of the Internal Rove_
Duo Act are the strongest part of the document, and
commend themselves at dice to the attention of
capitalists. If the income of the Treasury from that
source is likely to be ono million of dollars per day,
as here indicated, the credit of the nation needs no
other support. We regard these Treasury notes as
the very best security, all things considered, the
Government has offered. The option of funding or
receiving back the principal at the end of three
years is worth far more than the ruling difference
between the coin and paper in the receipt of inte
rest, and all who have any money to spare from
their business will And it for their interest to invest
it in this subscription. The notes are not a legal
tender, but they are to be mild in legal tender at,
maturity, unless the holder chooses to convert them
into a six per cent. stock.
The advertisement of the Treasury Department,
in reference to proposals for the new. loan, will be
found in another column. All subscriptions must
be for fifty dollars, or some multiple of fifty dollars. 1
Interest will be allowed to August-15 on all de
posits made prior to that date, and will be paid by
the Department upon receipt of the original certifi
cates. As the notes draw interest from August 15,
persons making deposits .subseqUent to that date
must pay the interest accrued from date of note to
Weer deposit. Parties depositing twenty-Rye thou
sanddollars and upward for these notes, at any one
time, will be allowed a commissionof one-quarter of
one pot cent., which will be paid by the Department
upon the receipt of a bill for the amount, certified to
by the officer with whom the deposit was made. No .
deductions for commissions must be made from the .
deposits. •
Messrs. Jay Cooke & Co. will receive subscriptions
for the new loan, and their facilities for the purpose
will doubtless attract subscribers from all parts.
The stock market yesterday was again active,
especially l'ot Government loans. The 4-208 sold
in large quantities throughout the day at 107 to
108%, the latter being an advance of If since
Monday. Tho 411 loan was also
,X. higher. The
T-308 were also held firmly at 105 bid. The sales
were very large at these figures; with a prospect of
prices still further advancing. The reason assigned
for this rise in Government securities is the large
foreign demand which has set in, particularly for
the 5.208. In reference to this foreign demand, the
London Times , city article, July 16th, stays :
The advice' from Frankfort mention that the
great rise in the exchanges at Now York had been
met by a corresponding fall in the prices of Federal
stocks. but that at the reduced quotations buyers
come forward in such numbers that not only large
sums brought from New York, but even various
parcels, sold nut by hankers for small speculators,
could still be disposed of at an advance of four per
cent. on New York prices. AS soon as these sales
were over, quotations recovered between one and
two per cent. "The eagerness of our public," it is
observed, "to' Invest, in American funds after so
many disappointments is wonderful. In spite of the
bad political and yet worse financial reports, every
reduction in the price brings new purchasers, mostly,
small capitalists. MuCh of the existing delusion is
attributed to the efforts of the German Democratic
press. Money remains plentiful at Frankfort.
State loans are steady, the Osselling at 101. Old
City sixes are selling at 101, and new at 100 X, the
latter being a slight decline. Company bonds are
selling at better rates. Schuylkill Navigation 65 of
92 rose %, Elmira 7s X, and Philadelphia and Sun
bury 'IS 3. The share list was not so active. • Penn'a
R. IL sold at 73X—noLchange. Reading closed at
about 68, an advance'. Minehill R. R. was X lower.
In Canals there was more doing. Schuylkill Nevi.
gation preferred was 1% better, and the common
rose 2, and Delaware Division x. Lehigh Naviga
tion was steady at 65. Bank and Passenger R. R.
stocks were quiet. In oils there was more doing,
and the tendency is for higher figures. Of the Coal
Companies we notice sales of Big Mountain at iX,
Green Mountain at 7%, and Penn Mining at 9X.
