These results were obtained Without watering the bonds or paying one franc commission, the wbnle business being trans acted by the regular salaried officials. Ttie American peopln are not less Intelligent ol pa triotic than the Frencn." The apparent object of this despatch, whioh was deemed of sufficient importance to reoeire a commendatory editorial notice, is to cast a doubt upon the wisdom of the action of the Government during the war, in seouring the aid of Jay Cooke in the negotiation of its loans. Since the question has thus been raised, we propose to consider it briefly from the standpoint suggested by the extract we have quoted. It must be remembered, at the outset, that there is no novelty in the system of a govern ment dispensing with the aid of agents in con tracting ordinary 'loans. Such, indeed, had been the praotice of the Unittd States up to the time of the war. It will be remembered, however, that in the closing days of Mr. Bu chanan's administration the efforts of the Rebels to blast the credit of the nation proved so successful, that the ordinary methods of raising money failed to replenish the trea sury, and so much uncertainty was felt in regard to the future at this gloomy period that a number of bidders to a United States loan preferred sacrificing the deposits made at the time they forwarded their bids, to the risk of investing in Government securities. This was before any appropria tions had been made to suppress the Rebellion, and at a time when the national debt scarcely reached a hundred millions of dollars. This fact, of itself, was sufficient to impress any Secretary of the Treasury who was suddenly oalled upon to meet enormous requisitions, with the necessity of adopting a better and more efficient method of negotiating public loans than that which had signally failed in the first days of national anxiety and alarm. The three French loans referred to in tin extraot amount respectively to 250,000,000, 600,000,000, and 750,000,000 francs, or, in all, $320,000,000 in round numbers, contracted at three different periods. The insignificance of this sum compared with the amounts required in this country during the war is of it3elf a sufficient answer to the ridiculous logio of the despatch. The reasoning it seeks to impose upon the people is substantially this: The French Government in 1854 borrowed $50,000,000 ; therefore, the Government of the United States could have made its original 6-20 loan of $514,000,000 without the aid of an agent I The French Government in Janu ary, 1855, borrowed $120,000,000 without ex traneous aid; therefore, the United States could have negotiated its 7.30 loan of $830,000,000 by merely publishing a few ad vertisements and authorizing its Assistant Treasurers to receive subscriptions t If the author of the despatch had paraded a list of his acquaintances whose private credit was good enough to borrow, without the aid of hanks or bankers, sums ranging from $10 to $1000, it would have been nearly as pertinent to the subject under diBoussion. The insignificance of the French loan was sot the only thing which rendered its nego tiation comparatively easy. Order and tran quility reigning at home, the money was to be expended either in the prosecution of popular foreign wars or in the construotion of useful Internal improvements. For suoh purposes, and under such oiroumstanoes, the treasures of capitalists and of the people are at all times freely contributed. No question was raised in regard to the security of the investment, and no doubts existed as to the financial future of France. Her fate did not hang trembling in the balance. 1 he wars she waged could not fcy any possibility result in her ruin. When Bhe assailed Russia in the Crimea or appeared as the antagonist of Austria in Italy the forces of the empire speedily punished old enemies and gained new glory by brief and brilliant campaigns, and when these objeots were accomplished amid the plaudits of the people peace was speedily restored. It should also be recollected that the pecu liar form of government prevailing in Franoe with Us multiplicity of officials under the im. mediate control of the central power and directly responsible to it, affords facilities for "popularizing" a loan or aoconiplluhlng any other object desired by the Rmperor which certainly did not exist la thU country at the time the war oommenoed, and which do not exist in any other nation to an equal degree. The despatoh gives not only the amount ol the loans oontraoted by Prance, bnt the nutn ber of bidders, via.: To the loan of 1854 196,000; to the loan of January, 1855, 354,000, to the loan of July, 1855, 634,000; in all 1,184,000. This Is a large number, certainly; but it falls far behind the number of sub scribers to the loans of the Government of the United States, for they are estimated at three mil lions. Asan illustration of the unpreoedeutei degree to whioh the financial oo-operation of the entire body of the patrlotio people of this country was secured, we append the issue ol the 7 30 bonds, negotiated by Jay Cooke, viz.: or isr brnda there were l sued... 7f2 s:w or sKHI.'Ji 11110 ' ...121'Oli 12-1844.10 Ola. 0 ' ' .

Yet, with the aid of all its imme diate agents, including the National Banks, the gross amount it produced was only $152, 076,250 the practical effect of the two sys tems, when tried side by side, under the most favorable circumstances to the official plan being that Jay Cooke sold, in a given period, more than four times as many bonds as the Treasury and the banks. Peter Cooper on the Democracy. Pbter Coofbb, Esq., a life-long Demoorat aui for half a century one of the leaders of that party in the city of New York, has written a letter to Mr. Horatio Seymour, whioh we pub lished in Tub Evbnino Telegraph of Wednes day, and whioh is well calculated to attraot the attention of all of the thinking membars of that party. It is the declaration of an old man who has been one of them, and in it he takes bold grounds in his attacks on the party with which he was wont to work. lie accuses the leaders of the falsely called Democratic party of being anxious to establish an aris tocracy, and of being real enemies at heart to the republican institutions of the United States, lie says: When I became convinced (hat the Demo cratic parly, wan wincu I baa been so long connected, was lending Iib puwtr anu Inlluenue totiuslatti men ai.tl in-Htm res that bud solar perverted the Conmiu lou of onr country as to deny ihe rights of man. bund to4,0t)0.(X 0of human beings and when I eaw tint i whs acting with a puny which was leudiug its influence to men ond measures ihat were raising up In our Coun try the vlltt form of an aristocracy an aris tocracy that, c) hi in eel It uh a right thai' properly iliouid own labor," and cammed the right to mix their blocd with the black race, and then ten their children to he enslaved with all tnelr posterity, iheu I conbldeied li my duty to my country toabatiuoti a pxrty thai bad abandoned the treat piinciples of tiuiu and Justice. Mr. Cooper does not content himself with the mere assertion, that the tendency of the Democracy is towards aristocracy, but quotes copiously from writers of renown, and from the declarations of their own cherished leaders, to show that they are all of them, in their capacity of leaders of the party, seeking to establish a degenerate privileged class. Having convicted them of this attempt, and thoroughly exposed their wishes and score designs, Mr. Cooper goes on to show how in consistent the leader of the Demooracy, Mr. Johnson, has been in all his career. lie quotes his own words. In a compaot form, he gives us the utterances of Andrew Johnson before he was a friend and defender of traitors, and by his own words he conviots him. After grinding Mr. Johnson to powder the old gentleman turns his attention to Mr. Sey mour's speeches and in a very few sentences shows how utterly flimsy are the arguments to which he resorted. He shows the unblush ing contradiction into which Mr. Seymour wan dered, and refutes the charges he made that $500,000,000 had teen expended "to uphold a despotio military authority to crush out the life of the States." To the charge of invasion of the rights of the South, Mr. Cooper re plies: It la certain that our Government could never stand lu the presence ot suoh laws as pre vailed throughout the Southern Stales oefore the Rebellion; laws that made li a crime to 'unbind the heavy burden, and let the captive go lree;" laws thai muue It a crime to teaon a f oor helpless slave to read and write, fearing bat a knowledge ot the Declaration of Inde pendence, that declares the Inalienable right of eiery man to bis life, bis liberty, and the pur suit of happiness, would make him unwilling longer to remain a slave. To lam of such a y Hem and such laws as have prevailed at the Houlh being democratic, la to talk of a living body without an animating spirit, Mr. Cooper, by his letter, has done good to the cause. He knows of what he writes, and the experience of nearly eighty years quali fies him to speak and be listened to with atten tion and respeot. A Rebel Attempts to Help his Friends. Rouebt Odld, the Rebel who had charge of the exchange of prisoners on the side of the Confederacy, has come to the aid of his friend Horatio Seymour, and written a letter, for which we make room to-day. It is designed as an electioneering document in favor of the Democracy, and endeavors, with an impu dence as rare as it is consummate, to throw the blame of the horrors of Andersonville and Belle Isle on General Grant. The heading of the dooument as it lies before ns in the Washington Intelligencer reveals the objeot of the letter. "A Startling Revelation The Exchange cf Pri tontrttitutemenl of Hubert Quid, Esq. Grant Mesjxmstblefor all the Horrors of AnaersonvUle JtuUtr's Tentimony on file Grant Orders no Ex changes to be Made full History of the Exchange 0 Prisoners." As to the long statement of fact in regard to the exchange, and the offers made by the Rebels, we do not propose to deal with them on the ex parte statement of a Rebel Commissioner. We do not know what were the facts whioh in duced the offer of Mr. Ouid to be declined. We were then in a state of war, and there is, in all human probability, reason to believe that the authorities did not keep our soldiers in Southern dungeons just for the pleasure of keeping them there. We think a common sense view of the case, Be far as the action previous to the arrival of General Grant were concerned, will be the most satisfactory. If Mr. Ouid's statement is correct and conclusive, then the aathoritie.1 at Washington, solely for the reason of seour irg our soldiers' slokcess, left them in the South. This is absurd. We will pass over all the preparatory statements, leaving them for a reply from the authorities if they deem it worth while, and oome to the gist of the letter in the attack on General Grant. The following paragraph is all the referenoe, im mediate or remote, to General Grant: The day that I left there General Orant ar tlved. Ueuerat Butler Buys he communicated to him Ibe state ol tne egotiallons, and 'most emphatic verbal directions were received from ibe Lieuienaut-Ueuerai n l to lake any step by which another able bodied mau should be ex changed until fiiriner orders from him;' and that on April 80, lHiil, h - received a in I eg mm from Or tiers! Oram, io teceive all the sick aud wounded the Coniederule authorities may s-md you, but eud no more lu exchai ge.' Unless my recolleoilou lullt me, O-nerai liuiicr a. so, la an addnss to tils constituents. suhMtantl-tlly d,rlared lhat he was dlroied in his muuuge inenl of the question of exi-hingi w,lh the t'nniederate authorities, to put the mutter oflenaiveiy, for the purpose of preventing an exchange. " Now what does this "startling revelation" amount to f General Grant did not wish able-bodied men returned to the Rebellion, and verbally told General Butler so. Wonderful revelation I The Rebellion was tottering for want of men, and Grant did not want an able bodied reinforcement sent to them. No won der that Ould and the Demooraoy are indig nant I Then, again, he told the United States to receive all the sick sent down, but not to ktep up the exchange for them. We fail to Bee a in that. So " startling revelation" far as that part of the letter whioh is correot "unless Mr. Ouid's recollection fails him," and which con tains "substantially" what was "spoken" by General Butler at a publio meeting, we do not deem it worthy of remark. It is a possibility upon a possibility, and one whioh even Mr. Ould, with all his zeal for the friends of his cause, will not venture to father. Looked at in a point of common sense, we ask our Demo cratic contemporary, wherein is the "startling revelation," and in what way they have shown thht "General Grant was responsible for all the horrors of Andersonville ?" We would like an answer. Talk vs. Work. This morning two ad drtBses are published from two Republican conmittees. The first is a brief aud urgent apjealof Hon. G. A. Grow, Chairman of the Sute Central Committee. It is good in its way, and has the merit of saying what it rut ana in a few words. The other is three colvmns loDg, and is signed by Mr Cbailes H. T. Collis as Chairman of the Sol diers' Executive Committee. What possible good this addrtss "No. 1" is expected to do we cannot imagine. In the first place not one man in a hundred reads anything three colunns long; and, in the second place, hardly any oie is ever converted by it. We do not want addresses. What is needed is work earnestt personal work. If Mr. Collis, and the members of his committee, will but go into their pre cincts and lend their aid in organization by acting with personal zeal, they will do far more good to the cause than by addresses "No. 1," or "No. 2," or "No. 20." We do not Bee the Democracy wasting ammunition in such verbose declaration of principles. While our committees are talking they are organiz ing and issuing secret circulars which contain practical instructions. This is what we need. We must go to the root of all successful cam paigning, and by having not only ward com mittees and division committees, but commit' tees to every square, so that not one vote can be lost and not one waverer but will b4 strengthened in the faith by the appeals per sonally made to him. It is by the hand to hand coufliot of argument that oonviotion is brought and not by the one-Bided discussion of an address, from whioh all can and most do escape by ignoring all it contains. Let our motto for the campaign be "less talk aud more work," and we will gain victory. Democratic Bulb in Ohio Is characteristic The partUan majority In the Legislature has taken advantage of their temporary supremacy to do a good deal of party work:. They raised their pay to 85, and held a session of one hun dred and thirty-four days the longest ever held In the State running up a bill of f 166,000. The entire expenses of the Republican Legislature the previous year were $93,813. The Legislature passed a resolution to reassemble In November, so that the people of that State are in a fair way to bave their heart's content of Democratio rule. Tbb Fall or Donnelly.

"This Whitb Fawn" contlnnes to crowd the Chesnut Street Theatre to its utmost capacity. All the machinery Is now in good working order, and the spectacle progresses without any hindrance or drawback. Last evening the cur tain fell at ten minutes past eleven o'clock, quite seasonable at this time of the year. We regret tbat Miss Josle Orton has not Improved In her manner since the first night. Seemingly Impressed with the Idea that she Is the centre ot attraction, and that even the gorgeous realms of Fairy and Dragou Fly must pale before her, she endeavors to nil the stage and falls. But this presumption la not the only fault bat her audience bave to find with her. In many of the scenes her manner 1b quite repulsive, aud much more becoming to a concert saloon than to the stage of a first-class theatre.- This 13 especially noticeable In her imitations of Tos tee, of unsavory memory. Toslee was bad enough, but Miss Josle Orton is nothing if not worse, since she falls to impart to these Pari sian pranks that easy and graceful tone which almost excused them In the native-born FreuoU woman whom she apes so muob. As for her dinging, the less we say about It the better, A lew unpretentious ditties she can rattle olT with very good craoe; but J'aime les Militaires is altogether beyond ber vooul oauaolilea either In French or English, All this we say In per. feet candor and kindness. MluOrim is a 0d sctrtss, is Justly entitled to rank above the rut Jorlly of her stage rivals. Why she will pei" Fist, as she has lately done, In casting anlde her unquestionable knowledge of her art, and oi the requirement of good taste, we are at a los. to conjecture. The White Fawn will be repeated every evening until further notloe, and wll1 alto be given at a matinee to-morrow afternoon. Walnut Btkket Tn baths. Mr. MoDoq. ouch's spectacle of The niack Crouk, to use a legitimate expression, is on "Its last legs" In ibis city. But three more representations wll1 be given this evening, to-mono afternoon, and to-morrow evening and then the foo will bid farewell to Philadelphia, we trust to return no more, for everybody has seen I1 twice, and not a few ad mirers of muscular art have beheld it half a score of times. A these ate poMtlvely the lost performances, the friends oi iienzoR" win uououess he out In full foroe on esch occasion, and The Black Lrook will be wound up with as great a flour lsb as on the opening night. On Monday evening next the legitimate drama will have a heating, and in these days when every establishment In the city finds the leg buMnexb" the best runDlnir, the novel ly of the thing should draw out a full house. Mr. M. W. LtfflDgwell, an actor ol reputation in toe lines of comedy and burletque, will make bis first appearat.ee, but will remain only one week. Mr. Lefflugwell has achieved a marked succeea in New York, where be has played the tame characters which be will assume heie two hundred and fifty nights. In one of these, "Beppo," In a burlesque of f'ra Diavolo, Mr Lefllngwell shows up some of the weak points or "ihe greatest living tragedian;" ihe oiher character is "Komeo Jaffler Jenkins'" lu Too Much for Good A'ature. The management of the Walnut Sireet Tneatre also an- aLnounce Foul Play as In preparation, aud promise to produce it soon wllh new scenery BPFOlbtments, and maoulnery. Foul Play, as everybody knows, Is a dramatization of the seilal novel by the same title which recently appeared simultaneously lu England aud Ame rica, from the pens of Charles Reade and Dion Bouclcault. It was produced for a few evenings In New York, at the New York Theatre, bul was withdrawn from the stage of that couoeru In consequence of the facta set forth in the lol lowlngcard: 'I desire to make a brief reply to the card of Mr J T.
