TIib ijlunsatit weather of tlic present week
lms "jnatlj increased the nuuihcr of siranjj
tfj, ninny of whom tmlnacc tlic opportunity
to continue Imsiucss with pleasure, urnl
luing their wives ami daughters to visit the
great "Mctiopolitan;Fuir." The Fuir ig, of
course, n grout success, ns migiit bo tfnect
fd. The receipts on Saturday reached
$iU?,00f, nnd arc now nearly one million
of (lo'.lan. New York will not permit any
thing to lag for want of money. No people
on enrth are more reckless or extravagant
in their expenditure. This spirit, though
vftcr. attended with evil cmiom;onv.. i
i i --
no duuht, much better for tlic comnnmity
hikI the welfare of the masses, than the
opposite. The miser who lays up his trea
sure, benefits no one not oven himself. In
n great city like this, where there is so
much to tempt the palate, as well as the
age, persons naturally grow extravagant,
even against the natural restraints imposed
' by habits of economy. To pay three dollars
fur a suibll basket, containing one pint of
fctruwbenies, would seem almost incredulous
but in the saloon connected with this hotel,
hundreds of baskets have been sold, the
past mouth, at that price. They are raised
in hot houses at Philadelphia, and are very
attractive, in appearance, though not equal
iu flavor to those raised in the garden. To
indulge in a feast of fctriuvbenies, at about
ix cents each, is an expensive luxury,
even in times of extravigance.
One of tho9C terrible revolutions, which
frequently overtake the brokers and stock
jobbers, who gamble in stocks, occurred on
Kiturday. The "bulls and bears," us they
are familiarly termed, whose business it is
to raise and depress tlic price or stocks,
have, for a year past, regulated the price of
gold, running it up and down to suit their
own interests. Secretary Chase has been
after them with a sharp stick, fur a long
time; but they generally manage to evade
him, in bis measures. One day last week,
they bad forced gold up to l.ST, but it was
brought dowa Fuddeniv to about 1.70. with
crushing inlet on the gold .-peculators. I
The movement of il.e Secretary, in nmici- i
fating the payment of the coupons or inter-!
ist on the 5-20 bonds in gold, which arc
due only on tlic l ,t of May, cornered these
speculators, and the result is thut many
"lame diicki," ns crippled brokers are cull
ed, are now seen in AVuli utreet. The fall
in some stocks is unprecedented. Tho de
cline iii Heading, from the llih to the 18th,
was from $S?1 to 07, and many others the
Fine proportion. How some stocks are
kept up, is really wonderful. Kor instance,
Harlem, which was down several years ago
to $3 per share, now sells at $190, and
strange to say, it has never yet paid a divi
dend, from this it may be seen the power
of these stock gamblers in depreciating the
National currency, and runuing up the price
of gold.
The passage of the National Bank bill
will work an entire revolution in tho bauk
ing policy of the States. The Hanks must,
of necessity, use the Government currency ;
and the result will .be that nearly nil our
Hanks will organize under tho National sys
tem. Tho lute movements have already
advanced the valno of tho "greenbacks,''
which arc now quoted at a premium of from
1 to 2 per cent, over other notes.
The massacre of our men at Tort Pillow,
by the rebels, will be made to recoil on
themselves with terrific effect. The Presi
dent declares that retributive justice will be
meted out to them. The friends of slavery
are rapidly destroying every vestige of that
institution. In a very short time Maryland
will be a free State. A majority of the
delegates are io favor of emancipation with
out compensation.
The treasonable cpeechrs of Long and
Harris ore already dividing the patriotic
portion of the democratic parly from such
men as Wood, Ya'.iandighum ami other
rebtl sympathizers, and widening the separ
tion between the loyal and disloyal of the
party. Kvca tho N. V. World, which has
liecn atwut as malignant in its copperhead
ism as any paper in the country, sees the
rousequences of allowing the ultra peace fac
tion to rule its party, and is very bold and
out-spoken iu condemnation of Long's senti
ments. It tells the Philadelphia Ago it is
sorry to see it playing into the hand of the
republicans "by supporting the views of
Long and Harris os the views of the demo
cratic party." In Saturday's World the ar
gument of Long is dissected and replied to
nt length. Long's whole fubric of logic fulls
before this plain statement of the situation
by the World :
Mr. Long's is mere paper loyic ; it ignores
the more cogent logic of events. A war
ouce begun, ceases to lie within tho control
of ckber of the parties to it, until they are
mutually exlutiii-tcd, or one of them bus
gained a decisive military advantage that
it can dictate terms to the other, in the
present balance ol udvaulav'es, neither the
North nor the South could propose anything
which the other would consent to accept,
i:ay, which it would oot resolutely reject at
the cannon's mouth. The ar can, ut pres
tut, no nioio be stopped thmu could u skill
midway in the cataract of Niagara. If, then,
we should adopt ,Mr I.onu'a tlsud Jioiut,
and regard tho S iuth as a foreign lulion,
every patriotic instinet, eveiy impulse of
J .ilion.il priib: demands thut o ir support be
given to o'irowii nation. If the mail hern

WOIiEU AND CHILDREN iULLED.
. Caiiio, 111., April 11.
On Tuesday morning, Forrest, with somo
six thousand men. attacked Fort Pillow.
Soon after the attack Forrest sent a flag of
truce demanding the surrender of the fort
and garrison, in the meanwhile disposing
ids force so ns to gain an advantage. Mnj.
Booth, of the Thirteenth Tennessee (U. 8.)
Heavy Artillery, formerly the First Alabama
Cavalry (colored) refused to receive the flag
of truce, and fighting was resumed. After
wards a second flag came in, which was also
refused. Iiotli llags gave the rebels the nd
vsntnge of gaining new positions.
The battle was kept up till 8 o'clock P.
M., when Major Booth was killed and Major
Bradford took command. The rebels had
come in swarms over to our troops, compell
ing them to surrender. Immediately upon
the surrender the rebels commenced an in
dUcriininate butchery of the whites and
blacks, including those of both colors who
had been previously wounded. The dead
and wounded negroes were piled iu heaps
and burned, una several citizens who joined
our forces for protection were cither killed
or wounded.
The black soldiers, becoming demoralized
rushed to the rear, their white officers hav
ing thrown down their arms. Both black
and white were bayoneted, shot or sabred,
and even dead bodies were horribly mutila
ted. Children of seven or eight years of
age, and several nei-ro women, were killed.
Soldiers unabie to speak, from their wounds,
were shot dead, and their bodies rolled
down the banks into the river. Out of a
garrison of six hundred men, only two bim
dred remained alive.
Among the dead officers are Captain Brail
ford, Lieutenants Burr, Ackerstrom, Wilson,
Revel, and Major Booth, all of tho Thir
teenth Tennessee Cavalrv; Captain Posten
Lieutenant Lyon, of the Thirteenth Tennes
see nnd Captain Young, of the Twenty
fourth Missouri, Acting Provost Marshal,
were taken prisoners. Major Biadford wa3
also taken, but he is said to have escaped.
It is feared, however, that he has been kill
ed. Tho steamer Platte Valley camo up about
'M o'clock. She was halted by the rebels
under a flag of truce, nnd her men sent
ashore to bury the dead and lake aboard
such of the wounded as the rebels had al
lowed to live. Eighty-seven were taken
aboard, including seven or eight colored
men. Eight of them died on tho way up.
The steamer arrived here this evening, nnd
was immediately sent to the Mound City
Hospital to discharge her suffering passen
gers. Among the wounded of the Colored
troops are C:pt. Porter, Lieut. 'Huberts and
Aoiutaiit Lemmair.
x '.'mis were captured by tho rebels, and
carried oh", iiicliidiui' two 10 pound Piir-
rotts r.nd two 12 -pound howitzers. A large
amount of stores were destroyed and carried
away. The intention of the rebels seemed
to be to evacuate the place and move on to
ward Memphis.

C.viuo, April 13. No boats have been al
lowed to leave here for points below Colum
bia since ttic t'.rst news ol the I ort 1'illow
mi'iir wi.s received.
The attack on Paducah vesterday proved
to be a mere raid for plunder, made by a
couple hundred of men, who were shelled
out by tlic forts and gunboats. After occu
pying a portion of the city in squads for
about an Hour tliey lett, taking away a num-I
ber ot Horses ami considerable plunder, and
leaving behind half a dozen killed and
wounded. No one was hurt on our side. I
Several of the guns captured by FoVrest !
at t ort 1'iUow were spiked beloro tailing
into his hands. The others were turned
upon the gunboat No. 7, which, from ex
haustion of ammunition, having fired some
three hundred rounds, was compelled to
withdraw. Although only tin-clad, she re
ceiveil but slight injury.
General Lee arrived and assumed tho
command at the beginning of t lie battle,
previous to which Chalmers directed the
moveiiichR
Forrest, wiih the nmln force, retired ufter
the fight to Brownsville, taking with him
the funds he had captured.
While the steamer Platte Valley lay under
a flag of truce, taking on the wounded, the
rebel officers, muong them Chalmers, went
aboard, and some of our officers showed
them great deference, drinking with thein,
and showing other marks of courtesy. Pro
minent among them is said to be a certain
officer of an Illinois Cavalry Regiment.
Sr. Loris, April 15. A correspondent of
the l iiion of this city, who was aboard tho
steamer Platte Valley, at Fort Pillow, gives
an even more appealing description of the
lien lUhucss of the rebels than our Cairo
despatch.
Many of our wounded, he says, were shot
in the hospital, the remainder were driven
out of the buildings, which were burned.
After the battle the rebels went over the
field and shot the negroes who hatl not died
from their previous wounds.
Many of those who deserved to be treated
as prisoners of war, as the rebels said, were
onleu d to fall into hue, when they were in
humanly shot down.
Of the three hundred and fifty colored
troops, not more than fifty-six escaped the
massacre, and not au officer that command
ed them survives.
Only lour officers of the Thirteenth Ten
nessee escaped death. The loss of tho Thir
teenth Tennessee Regiment was eight hun
dred killed and the remainder wouuded or
captured.
General Chalmers told the correspondent
oftliel nii.il that although it was against
the policy of his "Government" to spare the
negro soldiers and their ollicers, ho had
done nit in his power to stop the carnage.
At the same time he said he believed it was
right.
Another officer said our white troops
would have been protected had they not
been found on duty with the negroes.
While the rebels endeavored to conceal
! their loss, it was evident that they suffered

Col. Keed Amoy, of the Tennesseo Hegi

The 3d, 7th and 8th Kentuckey (rebel)
regiments are overruling Western Ken
tucky with impunity. The inhabitants of
Metropolis arc in a constant state of suspense,
not knowing at what hour they may be at
tacked. Every body has slept in their
clothes for the past two nights, ready to
defend themselves or to decamp, as circum
stances might require. Uuuboata are con
stantly patrolling, taking every percaution
to prevent the reltels from crossing, by sink
ing and destroying all skills and other
craft that could be used for thnt purpose.

MtMi-nis, April, 17. There is not l.u.ch
i said, but there is a general gritting of teeth
, among the ofiieers hero when the massacre
of the brave garrison of Fort Pillow is nl'.ud

say that, unless .'he Government takes re

i duty to shoot every man of Forrest's eoin
I maud that they meet, and to take no prison

From WnnUIncton.
WAsniKOToN, April 18.
The Senato Pacific Railroad Committee I
havo agreed to report the following amend-1
Tnciits to the act of 18C3s Instead of Gov
ernment bonds, tho coupons of bonds issued
by companies, in sums of one thousand dol
lars each, at bix per cent., will be paid by
Government without' chargo for tho first
year, and for nineteen years interest will bo
guarantied at the same rate, Bitch payments
to constitute the first mortgage upon the
roaa and its equipments. I pon an equal
footing with the bonds, tho Company will
be allowed to Lssuo twenty-four thousand
dollars per mile upon tho Eastern section,
and on two mountain sections ninety six
thousand dollars per mile ; on intermediate
space forty-eight thousand dollars per mile,
and west of Sierra Nevada twenty-four thou
sand dollars per mile. About eighty-five to
one hundred millions jvill be needed, nnd
the usual interest will be about five million
dollars. The forfeiture clause will be sepa
rated. The road will be nearly two thou
sand miles long.
The War Committee to-day resolved to
send Senator Wade, of Ohio, and Represen
tative Oooch, of Massachusetts, to Cairo and
Fort Pillow, to take testimony upon the
recent massacre at the latter point. The
committee were at the War Department this
morning to consult with the Secretary of
War, but he was unable to throw any light
upon the subject. The sub-committee will
leave to morrow, nnd will be accompanied
bv a stenoirranker.
Reports to the J rensnry Department to-1
day show that nearly six millions dollars of
the Ten-forty Bonds were subscribed for to- I
day, making a total of twenty-five million
dollars.
In order to correct an erroneous impress-
sion. it is nrouer to sav that the President's !
order of March last requires the amounts for ',
uien raised by voluntary enlistments to be
made up to the l.'itb of April, and the draft .
to commence as soon thereafter as praetica-1
ble. No authority is given for the assertion !
that it will now positively take place on the ,
first of May. There are more or less ncces- ;
sary and real delays connected with a pro- '
per adjustment of accounts, with a view to !
u draft, but additional and unreal ones, to j
which currency has been given, serve only to
increase the ditlieulty.
The follow ing is the bill w hich passed the '
Senate on Saturday, and awaits tlic action :
of the House : i
7'e it 7icW, That it shall be linlawf.il to ;
make any contract for the purchase, or sale, I
or delivery of any gold coin or bullion, or '
of any foreign exchange, to be delivered at '
any time subsequent to the making of such
contract, or for the payment of ;,:r,- sum.

delivery of any gold coin or bullion, ,r of

whatever- for the sale, loan, or delivery of
u:iy trold coin or bullion or foreign exchange
of which the person making such contR.ct
shali not at tlic time of making be the ow n

t-e.!. . That it shall be further unlawful
lo.- any banker, broker, or other person, to
make any purchase or sale of any gold coin
or bullion, or of any foreign exchange, or
any contract for any such purchase or sale
at any other place than the ordinary place
of business of either thu seller or purchaser,

Sec. 3. All contracts made in violation of

Sec. 4. Any person who shall violate any
provision of this oct shall be held guilty of

liAi.TiMoiu:, April IS. The inauguration'
exercises of the great Fair at Man land Iu- '
stitute, to night, were very imposing. The
display was exceedingly fine, and the im-
meiise building was thronged in every part.
Preshhnt Lincoln made a speech, which
contained an important reference to the '
Fort Pillow massacre.
The President's appearance in the hall i
was greeted with tremendous applause, w hieh
continued some moments. Alter the inau

President was loudly called for, aud in re-1

He referred fo the great change that had j
takeu place in Baltimore in tiie last three
years. Tritely, he said, the world moves.
At the commencement of tho war the sol-'
j diers ofthe Union could not pass through!
Baltimore unmolested, ami now we have I
this largo assemblage of people brought to-1
gether to do them honor ami to provide for '
their wants, and to make thein comfortable. :
All honor to the brave patriots w ho had

men who aided them.
When this war began scarcely one indi j
vidu il suppossed it would have lasted till .
now. All thought it would have ended in i
some way in a much shorter time. Very I
few at that time thought the institution of,
slavery would lie very much allccted by it,
but these expectation wetu not reab.ed,

When the qutstinn of employing colored

ense. The government has m direct evi
dence to confirm the reports in existence
relative to the massacre, but he himself
feared that the facts ns related were true.
When the government does know the '
-'t f-m ofiiciui sources, and theysnbstanti-
fact
ale the reports, retribution will surely be
"iven. iGrcat applause.) Hut how that
retribution should be administered was ni
question still to be settled. Would it fce.
just to take the lives of prisoners in Wush- j
'ington, iu Fort Delaware or elsewhere, in I
retaliation for acts in which they had not a
share Would it be right to take the prison- '
ers captured at Yickshurjr and shoot them
for acts of which they w ere not guilty, aud
which it will probably be found were the
ordering of a lew individuals, or possibly of
onlv on,, -man? I
The President reiterated that liic govern- j
ment would not fail to vNit retribution'
when the fact- were clearly proven. Through
out his roniaiks he was warmly applauded,
especially his enunciation of a detci mimv j
tion to visit retribution for the barburoui
deeds of the rebels. i

i Washington, April 1 it.
On Saturday afternoon, about five o'clock
despatches were received here from Gcncial
Sherman confirming the news ofthe stirren-
ler of Fort Pillow and the brutal conduct
ofthe rebels i
immediately afterwards, which
. ,-u tilr to
amply retaliated in that quar
ter in due time.
The Siar ays : According to Gen. Slier
man's report, our hi.-s was fifty white troops
killed ami one hundred wounded, and i'UO
black troops iiiurdcicd in cold blood alter
the sitrreiii'.er.
Fori Pillow is r.u isolated post, of no value
whatever lo the di fence of ( olaiiibiis. and
utterly untenable by the rebel-, who have,
no doubt, left that vicinity ere this, having
been disappointed, with coiis'ulerable loss,
in the object of their raid thither, which vv as
the c ipture of Columbus, whence they were
promptly and severely icpulsed, with uo loss
to us.
Wc arc satisfied lluit duo investigation
will show that the loss of Fort Pillow- was
sinipiy the res.ilt of a mistakei f a loeul eom
nuiuder, who occupied it against direct or
ders a contingency incident to all wars.
The rebi Is, acconiing to the ollieial des
patch received h'. le last evening, eil'ected
nothing at Paducah, losing a soldier killed
anil wounded for ev ery horse they mic.-i eded
in stealing, and doing us no other, damage
than by a few thefts.
It is believed that Forrest's raiders will
next appear in the vicinity of Memphis,
where they can ellect no more than they did
at Columbus and Padurah, and stand a very
lair chance, indeed, ol finding themselves
surrounded by overwhelmingly superior
numbers.
