Daniel Drew and Cornelius Vanderbilt are rival money powers in New York city.. Each is enormously rich and each heads a mighty railroad power. Drew represents the Erie Railroad Company, and Vanderbilt the Central and Hudson River Railway Compa nies. The old struggle between these two rival lines to secure the bulk of the western trade has lately been carried on with unusual vigor, and the contest has now assumed almost the magnitude of a war. Vanderbilt and his faction have tried to oust Drew and Me faction from the management of the Erie, so as to work the two lines to their own ad vantage. Drew and his Directors, to avoid legal interference, have led from New York and established the • government of the Erie in Jersey City, under the pro tection of the State of New Jersey. There Vag are safe from interference by Vander bilt and a corrupt Judge of New York, wh is reported to be a mere tool in the hands of Vanderbilt, and an expectant of reward for his services. The Drew managers of the Erie, snugly en trenched at Jersey City, are resorting to vari ens expedients to bother the Vanderbilt party. An order reducing fares and freight Pates much below the expenses of working the road, is the latest measure adopted. This may serve as a temporary, annoyance, and may draw travel and traffic from the Central road. But the more travel and traffic are crowded upon the Erie at prices below the cost, of operating the road, the 'worse it will to for the Company. If titre - through fare to -- Buffalo —continues - - at five dollars, or about a cent a mile, there must be a loss on every thousand passengers of about five thousand dollars, and the larger the business the heavier will be the loss. under the circumstances the Central line weld very well stand still, losing less by masterly inactivity than its rival does by ex missive activity. There must be a limit to the Erie Company's ability to bear excessive expenditure, and the patience of tho Vander bilt party can probably stretch out so as to %wait the reaching of that limit. The general public that travels, and ships and receives freights, must look with com placency upon this desperate rivalry of the two corporations. The longer it lasts the better for this disinterested public. But the stockholders of the two companies can hardly regard it with so much satisfaction. They see their property gambled for and depreci tied in value, in a mere personal rivalry between two rich but unscrupulous speculators. They discover that either of these men has a power to disturb the money market and disturb the values of nearly all the securities that are in the New York market. There is na great moral or political principle involved in the Drew and Vanderbilt fight. It is a simple struggle for personal power between two men, neither of whom can be called a very useful citizen, though one has endowed a college with his money, and the other has done some princely deeds with his. After all, the honest public cannot help reflecting that the money thus expended has been ob tained chiefly by speculative operations that __were rs4ly___garablingestd._gambling,,ton„. upon a gigantic scale, which ought to be re garded as a wickeder sin than the gambling that is done quietly and on a small scale at a faro table. 'lt is a real calamity for a corn sanity when the tremendous power of a gi gantic corporation, like either of the great New York railroad companies, can be wielded by a man like Cornelius Vander bilt or one like Daniel Drew. In this lati tude the people look on with indifference at the New York railway fight, and it is rather amusing to note the various steps of the rival railway kings, and to speculate as to the ultimate termination of the fight. But there at us t be many thousands of people nearer the scene of action who are actual sufferers by the prezenk struggle, and who must dread fortherloss when it comes to an end. But there seems to be no likelihocid of its coming So an end so long as Drew and Vanderbilt Nve, each striving to put down the other. TEM TENNESSEE TROUBLES. Governor Brownlow has replied to Secre tary Stanton, with characteristic boldnym, that he will take care of the Tenneasee rebels, himself. He does not expect 'to call upon General Thomas for Federal aid, although he "MOWS that it will be promptly afforded him Vit should be needed. Governor Brownlow oenfirmis the intelligence that there is a wide; *read organization- in his State which ihreatenonaisehief, but he very wisely con sludea that men who bald together under such silly forms as those of the -- "lin Klux 4lan" cannot be very' formidable enemies, and he is ready to put a prompt stop to any wren% act of rebellion Co. civil disturbance by the summary process of "an ex ample that will not soon be for a:Alen . 1 ' it may well be believed that when Governor 13rownlow talks about hanging outlaws and rebels, it means some thing very different from those utterances of Andrew Johnson's which have resulted in liking so much respectability to trealsou. This "Ks Klux Blatt" ie not calculated to slaw pawn nua very Kriel/lay, 3t imvuri3 too much of the "S. T. 1860. X." . to be 'very frightful. Mysterious orders, dated from the "Den of Skulls,"and signed by the "Supreme CyClops," or from "Devil's. Pit in Serpent Bend," or "Wolf Hole," whence "0. A. P. G. G. C*T - Mtns "Win. A." that—"Death's angels aro always on the look out," are emi nently characteristic of a certain type of the Southern mind, to which respectable and intelligent people have become to much familiarized to be soared by it. The K. K. K's" are . a very ridiculous set of creatures, probably too lazy to earn decent livings by work, and too cowardly to carry out their villanies in any open and manly way. Such vagabonds as these will fare badly when they fall into the hands of Governor Brownlow: That official is not over-burd ened with an undue sensitiveness, and he will undoubtedly find quick methods of dealing with the first overt demonstration that is made by these terrible bandits. It is a little mortifying to be forced to admit that there is such an clement in American society as this. There is a mean and paltry littleness about it. which does not seem to belong to a young and robust country like ours. Lawlessness and reckless ness are not inconsistent with now commu nities, but such manifestations of childishness as are made by such organizations as this "Ku Klux Klan" are unworthy of the American character and of the stalwart age in which we live. It is to be hoped that the mysterious out-givings of these melodra matic rascals will soon "come to a head." There need be no fear that Governor Brown low will fail to deal with them precisely as he promised. DEATH 01:' HON. DAVID WILIIOr. The Hon. David Wilmot died at his real 'duce in Towanda on Monday last. Ho had been in failing health for some time, but he was confined to his bed but six days pre vious to his death. Mr. Wilmot was born at Bethany, Wayne county, Pa., January JO, 1814, and was consequently but fifty-four years old at the period of hie death. He was educated at Bethany and at Aurora, New York. He studied law, and in 1834 was admitted to the bar at Wilkesbarre, and soon after removed to Towanda, 'Bra - ford county, where he commenced the prac tice of his profession and where he continued to reside until his death. Early in life he entered upon the stage of politics, and he was an earnest supporter of Mr. Van Buren for the Presidency in 1836. He displayed much ability during the can vass, and in 1844 he was elected to Congress on the Democratic ticket as a representative of the district composed of Bradford, Tioga and Susquehanna counties. In 1846, and again in 1848, he was re-elelected. During his second term, pending the discussion of a -bill -placing $2,000,000 at the disposal_of_ President Polk to negotiate a peace with Mexico, he offered an amendment which was known in the fierce agitation which followed it, as the "Wilmot Proviso." The substance of this proviso was a condition that in any territory to be acquired by the United States, by virtue of a treaty with Mexico, slavery should be forever forbidden. The House adopted the amendment, but in the Senate its oppon ents staved off action upon it until the close of the session. The next session it was re vived and it proved to be a source of excite ment during the entire term. The House again passed it and the Senate again failed to take action upon it. In 1848, when Martin Van Buren was the candidate of the Free Soil party for President, Mr. Wilmot sup ported him. In 1851, lie was elected Presi dent Judge of the Thirteenth Judicial Dis trict. This office he resigned in 1854 to accept the nomination of the Free Soil party for Governor. He was not elected to fill the Gubernatorial chair. He was subsequently re-elected to Congress, and continued to fit the position with distinguished ability unto his election to the United States Senate in 1861. In 1863,he was appointed a Judge of the Court of Claims by President Lincoln, which position becomes vacated by his death. Judge Wilmot was a consistent and pow erful opponent of the extension of slavery from the period of the Mexican war, when the object of the South in bringing about the conflict became apparent. He struggled fir the 'Treviso" while there was a chance fir itp EUC ceskand yFhen_jt failed he opposed with all his ability the iniquitous Kansas and Nebraska bill of Mr. Douglas. In 1856, he was a delegate to the National Republican Convention which nominated General Fremont for the Presidency, and his pea drafted the platform of principles which was the basis upon which was reared the great Republican party that twice elected Abraham Lincoln to the Presidency. The last im portant public service of Judge Wilmot was as United States Senator, when he was elected to serve the remainder of the term made vacant by the resignation of Mr. Came ron. , He advocated an earnest prosecution of the war and voted for confiscation. Like all American statesmen who dared to oppose the giant wrong of slavery when it was fashionable, to uphold it, Mr. Wilmot's name-was a target of constant abuse and opprobrium. Impartial history will award him the merit of honesty and earnestness of purpose,and rank him among the bravest and most powerful champions of freedom from the time the determination of the South to force the extension of slavery became evident; to the period when the institution perished through the madness of its advocates and supporters. BISHOP SVEVLNS. 119 many friends of Bishop Stevens will be glad to learn that he rs rapidly improving in health and strength, and so far from having received permanent injuries, as has been re ported, his. hurts are of a superficial charac ter, and will be entirely cured. The Bishop's physician asserts that his early and entire re covery may be looked for, and that after his enforced confinement and rest he will probably be even stronger, and better able to attend to his arduous duties, than he was be fore the accident. Ile is still at the h wise of Judge Conyngham, in Wilkesbarre, where he receives the kindest attention. Elegant Iteedidelice and Large Lot.— )firmr. Th. Del , 4., hope' lulvetOre_ ( 9r the iet Mot).

The high rates current for cane ing gold have canned many of the holders to either reduce their load or sell out, and this has re sulted in a decline in the premium without quickening speculation for a fall, the tone of feeling in the room being less bearish now than it was a week ape, although there is very little disposition shown to undertake opera tions for a nee.

Menem la—The money and stork markets have been under much excitement to-ray. The premiere to borrow money by the brokers was ?crewed from last Melt early he the forenoon, and continued, though not without Pin der coo of gradual relief, to the Ow of hank hours. The rates (including extra commissions paid), were all the way from 7to 19 per cent. The rate of 7 per cent. gold interest, equal to 10 per cent per annum currenev, was quoted as quite common. The , banks nuder the National system are not obliged to resort to this plan of charging over 7 per cent. They can charge the extra Interest in CurrencY, or can discount paper at extra rater, without incurring any ether penalty than the return of the extra Interest, if sued for It by the borrower. The local Banke , tinder the Now York laws, se well as private lenders, are subject to the severer pen alties of the New York statute againet usurious interest. In the' present pinch for Marcy we I me not apprised that either elves of Banks have charged their dealers over 7 rer cent. •on demand loans; but some 'of the National Banks have, for seine time past, made their, own rates in dkeeirnting paper w ben money is worth more than 7 per cent. in the open market.
