Wonders have nearly chased. There are

“like a eummor cloud,
Without ourspecial wonder,”
that would ; have been deemed impossible
even thirty years ago,' The daily operations
of the electric telegraph are enormous, but
they'have ceased to be marvellous. People
' have become so used to the service of light
ning in harness, that , there isno limit to tiieir
demands, and expectations of the mysterious
agent,> and the most tremendous statistics of
the actual business done fail to excite any Ex
pressions of wonder. As proof of this, here
is a statement that has been in. print and
circulated'in the clever little, paper
called, the Journal of the Telegraph for
more than a week, and has, so for as we
*knowj not commanded enough attention to
be copied in any paper until now;

In addition to the above, 8,000 words were re

“The highest number of operators on duty at

sages sent from and received at the “city line”

“On. Friday, previous, July 3, the number sent

est number of operators on duty at one time
was 12!
“Great credit is due Mr. Brown, Manager; Mr.
Marks, Night Manager; Messrs. Downer, Smith
and Dolan, Chief Operators, and all their subor
dinates, ana equal credit to Miss fiuow, Manager
of the City Line Boom, and all the young ladies
employed under her direction.”
-Yes, indeed; great credit is due to Messrs.
Brown, Marks, Downer, Smith and Dolan,
and to Miss Snow and her young ladies. But
the great outside world fails to give them any
credit, because there has ceased -to be any
limit to the public’s exactions upon the tele
graph. Think of about thirty-four thousand
commercial messages, making about eight
hundred and fifty thousand words, being des
patched from one city by one telegraph com
pany, in four days! We ought to wonder at
it, but do not Nor do we wonder when
we leam . that besides this, there
Were, during the same time, nearly
six hundred thousand words sent in “press
messages,” and that all these, amounting pro
bably to forty thousand separate messages and
nearly a million and a half of words, were
sent by operators whose number never ex
-ceeded forty-Beven. And then Miss Snow and
her little party of ten or fifteen young ladles,
sending and receiving about three thousand
city messages .a day besides, ought to be,
jointly and severally, objects of interest, if not
of wonder; but they are not. It might as well
,/be expected that everybody would take
interest in and wonder at the man that brings
ihis evening paper, or the one that carries
ihis letters from the post-office. These latter,
/■indeed, are hnman messengers, who use mus
—ele, limb and wind on their errands. But the
-telegraph, that does in a moment the work of
thousands of men, has no breath, bone or
-sinew. It is the mysterious but docile slave
of Brown and Smith, to say nothing of Miss
■fijiaw and her young women, and at their
bidding does wonders surpassing all ever sug
gested in all the romances,. fables and fairy
taka ever dreamed of since the world be
gan. And yet the practical, ’matter-of-fact,
/- exacting public of modern times has sunk so
* deeply into the nil ctdmirari groove, that it
i takeSfin its telegraphic facts with as little
m emotion as it feels when it takes in its coals
;
’a ; time of Gutenberg and Paustus
people thought there was something devilish
'in the art of printing. It w&b styled a “black
ml," and the “printer’s devil” was the name
,{£ven to the urchin that was supposed to
itsve something impish in his nature, because
a writers thoughts passed through his
hands before they re-appeared in the
magical impression of the types. The
telegraph, by which a man can
print or write words instantly, thou
sand* of miles away fiom where he sits,ought
to he infinitely more marvellous than the
printing-press., The operators. Brown and
Smith, sod Miss Drew and her young ladies,
nrenotsuspected of having dealings with the
devil. Their art hardly receives credit as an
art.. And yet one cannot help thinking that
if Benjamin Franklin, who was a sort of tele
grapher, besides being a printer, had foretold
such an amount of work to be done in four
days of 18C8, as that described above, by an
invention of which his kite wire was a germ,
he would have been set down as fl fool, it not
as a devil.

fall upon him when there were so many ca

and it is no disparagement to the gentlemen
who were hbt'nominated that the choice fell
upon Mr. Gibbons. ■ .Mr. G. has never held
bnt a single public office during his long ca
reer as an active politician. Some twenty
years ago ho was elected to the State Senate,
and his eminent talents secured tor him the
Speakership. Since then he has devoted him
self to the practice of his profession, and he
has attained a degree of success that is a’suffi
cient guarantee that he will prosecute the pleas
of the Commonwealth with earnestness, and
intelligence. Mr. Gibbons has always taken
an active part in the important political ques
tions of the day. During the war he never
flagged in,his exertions in the cause of the
Union. In the gloomiest seasons his words o f
cheer and good counsel were always heard
where they would be most effective, and in
times of rejoicing, he was always among
those who gloried- over the coming down
fall of treason and the vindication of the
Right. “ V . - : - ''

A. Trollope, Esq., novelist, has been
giving expression to what he calls “my ideas
of reconstruction.” Just at the tiihe when
the rebel States are coming back again to the
Union; and when their representatives Are
taking their seats in the National Legislature,
Mr. Trollope, standing in Washington and
surveying the melanpholy political prospect
with his moreorless eagle eye, arrive 9 at a
number ot very remarkable conclusions. He
solemnly affirms that the Congressional plan
of reconstruction is “the most outrageous
tyranny ever imposed upon a fallen people."
It may be disagreeable for “an Italian to feel
an Austrian over him, " and a Pole may re
gard it as unpleasant “to feel a Russian over
him,” who annoys him by exiling him
for a score or two of years to Sioerian
mines, : and knouts . him for speaking
i hiß own language; but these- vexations sink
into insignificance by comparison with the
. suffering induced by rebels whose, late slaves
have the franchise of which they themselves
are deprived. To Mr. Trollope’s mind it ap
pears, a perfectly clear cake of outrage tlfat
defeated rebels who wish to vote, should be
required “to take a test oath so worded as to
be utterly irreconcilable to the feelings of a
Southern white :man,” and the iniquity be
comes more appalling when he reflects that'
‘ ‘the framing : of the State constitutions is
given to men who five years ago were Blaves,
and are negroes still:" For Mr.-.-Trollope's
sake, and indeed for our domestic {leaee, we
regret that the blacks should have been guilty
of this latter' crime. If they' had only
become pallid by proclamation, as they be
came tree, it would have been so
convenient for all of us, and so much more
agreeable to Mr. Trollope. Congress is -in
session now, and perhaps it would do well
to heed hiß opinion and appoint a committee
to consult with him about altering the re
construction plan. He seems to think such
a course absolutely necessary to the welfare
of the country, for the gift of political power
to negroes, “who are not fitted by gifts and
nature to exercise it amid a community of
white men,” can have no other result than to
! produce “a war of races, with, the express
j object of keeping down a people in order that
; they may be debarred from all political I
power." • This is not very clear as it stands,
not even to Trollope himself, who, immedi
ately after declaring that this sanguinary
“war of races” will “keep down" the whites,
paints a melancholy picture of the inevitable
decay which will immediately result to
j these repressing negroes, who “will begin
j their appointed task of disappearing. ”
I Perhaps it is a matter of regret that our
I plan of reconstruction does not meet with
' Mr. Trollope’s approbation. We are accom
modating, and like to please everybody. Bat
Mr. Trollope’s claims to consideration are not
of tie most deserving character. In the first
place, he has followed his usual course in
substituting fiction, for fact in his statement of
the case; secondly, he is the representative of
a nation that could never see any.virtue in
any effort made to prevent the utter destruc
tion of our government; and- thirdly, it is
none of his business individually what course
we ehctSe to adopt In reference to reconstruc
tion, and what results flow from it.
The fact has been stated - before, but for
the benefit of Mr. Trollope and gentlemen in
a similarly discontented frame of mind, we
may state again that'we have overthrown a
frightful-rebellion of States .which must have
been reconstructed in some way, and in ac
complishing that reconstruction we have par
doned thousands of rebels whom Mr. Trol
lope’s -model government would have hanged
or transported for life. If Great Britain
thought it necessary to execute a few
wretched and defenceless Fenians, who dared
to defy her authority, we do not see ho.w even
an insensate Trollope can find fault with us
because we simply disfranchise men
who are infinitely. more ' guilty—
men whose , hands are stained with
the blood of thousands of their own
countrymen. .The fact is, Trollope would be
more strictly in theline of duty, if lie topped
meddling in a matter that he does not under
stand, and gave his attention, to the fulfil
ment of his legitimate mission, which is the
negotiation of a, postal treaty between the
' United Stateß and Great Britain. His ill
j success in this has been so marked that we
- begin .to question-his-eompetency for even sh
small an ambassadorship. Certainly he can
not hope.to instruct ua upon a Bubject to which
the most exalted wisdom-of this nation has
directed its attention for years. Write novels,
| Trollope, and let politics alone.

THE Olllit EYEKiyG FRIDAY, JULY 24^1868.',

candidates, Seyhabiir and Blair, with ah en
ergy that leayes no room for doubt'that ho
considers as began that promised tiihe when
the Southern rebels would renew with ballots
the cause that they lost with bullets. Thi 9
representative' Democrat made a speech lb-
Baltimore a day or two ago, in which he at
tempted to picture the horrors that result front
the Congressional policy in the South. The
most frightful barbarity of which he was
aware, was that exhibited in the arrest of
twenty-six young men at Atlanta, upon the
suspicion of murdering a man. These were
each imprisoned in a cell eight feet long and
two and a half wide, with but one plank be
tween them and the tropic sun. “They must
have died,” says the General, “had they not
prevailed upon the sentinel to dash buckets o *
water over them.”
This was doubtlesß very terrible, but we are
not as much shocked as we, would have been
had we not known the truth about it. These
fellows appeared, from the evidenfco, to have
been members of an organization, the founda
tion of whose faith is! the principle that it is a
righteous thing to murder h Union man, and
the simple aim and object of which is to
attain to perfect righteousness of that char
acter. But even if these twenty-six had been
■the most innocent and guileless youths in the
South,'we do not perceive tbat Wade Hamp
ton has anyright ‘tocomplain.' We cannot
forget that in that very State, only six years
ago, myriads of Union soldiers were confined
'nn prison, the horrors of which no tongue
or pen can ever tell.. That these prisoners
had not even “a plank between them and the
tropic sun,” and no sentinels to do them any
act of kindness or charity/ The sentinels of
Andereonville shot their prisoners dead, i£
n the agonies of thirst, starvation or
disease; they staggered upon an ima
ginary line, and the only water they
got was that which reeked with the foul
impurities contributed by the necessities of
thousands of suffering human beings. We
do not wish to avenge Anderson ville, : and the
great multitude of our brethren who made it
their sepulchre, or came back from it hideous
skeletons,in all conditions of idiocy and mad
ness; but we cannot forgive it or forget it,aud
we tire of the shameless effrontery of such
men as Wade Hampton, who, with a large
share of the responsibility upon his soul, au
daciously comes here to'accuse us hi cruelty
to a gang of murderers, who, it they dared da
it, would to-day torture the Union men of the
South with fiercer cruelties. If the Demo
cratic party comes before the country, with
such advocates as this, they may expect an
overwhelming defeat at the hands of an in
dignant and insulted people.
Mr. Butler—lam trying to give the reason why

This is a brie!' extract from the proceed
ings of Congress yesterday. The member
from the First District seems to have “caught
a Tartar” in (Mr. Bjutler. He after wards tried
his hand on Judge Kelley; but the reporter of
the Associated Press' intimates that the
Judge did not hear his remarks and they con
sequently went without a retort The hit aO
the Representative from the Fourth District
was eminently worthy of the representative
the Fourth Ward. Mr. Randall took occa
sion to indulge in a fling at his colleague be
cause he had attempted to dodge rebel bullets
aimed at him at Mobile, while he was making
a speech there. We do not recollect to have
ever heard that Mr. Randall, upon any occa
sion whatever, denounced the assas
sins who attempted the life of Judge
Kelley at Mobile, and under the
circumstances, the fling at him for endea
voring to save himself from rebel bullets is
rather ungracious. One of the most noted, it
not the most illustrious,of Mr. Randall’s pre
decessors as representative of the First Dis
trict, went into Congress as a strict member
of the temperance society, and he maintained
his pledge through all the temptations of
Washington life. " The “boat-builder’s son’’
did some things that were not distinguished
for eminent wißdom;but as he was always free
from alcoholic influences, he generally took
good care to keep out of the way of the mas
tiffs of the Opposition, and he never, to our.
recollection, sneered at a man for attempting
to escape the murderer’s.bullet, while he had
nothing but honied words for the assassin.
It takes a good many cannon-balls to make
one of the symmetrical pyramids in'which they
are usually piled, and a good many pyramids
are required to kill a mani during war times.
We have not the figures at hand, but it is
certain that in consequence of either bad
shooting or good dodging, or both, it takes a
huge quantity of lead-or iron to kill a man.
There is much more effective description of
ammunition than either iron balls or leaden
bullets, that is piled up at the street corners
at the present time, but its aim is as certain
and tbe results are as fatal as a first-class
ntedle-gun in the h,ands of one of Bismarck’s
veteran experts. This ammunition, like
Mr. Pendleton’s pellets of war, is green
backed, and it comes in the guise of apples
and pears that are almost stony in their
hardness, crude .as the , statesmanship
of Andrew Jofinson, and just about as un
wholesome. - There are also peaches, not the
luscious fruit which, eaten ripe, delights the
palate and conduces to health ; but beggarly
little, crude, half-developed, half-rotten drop
pings from storm-shaken trees in the South,
that are the of cholera and the
whippers-iir generally of diseases of the bow
els. The purchasers and consumers of thiß
dangerous ammunition are usually children,
and the dealers in it are scarcely less culpa
ble than if they placed loaded fire-arms in ju
venile, and inexperienced hands. There are
laws which regulate the sale of gunpowder
and poisonous drugs, aud there is no good
reason why this pomological poison should
not be forbidden by city ordinance or State
enactment.

New York, Jnly 24.—Tne fifth day’s session
of the Israellilsh Convention, now held In this
city, ended with placing the whole power of go
verning the Order of B'nal B’rith with “the
people’’—that is, in the members composing the
Focal lodges. Vigorous but unsuccessful was the
opposition to this change In the constitution oi
the order. The delegates then visited the syna
gogue on Fifth avenue and Forty-third street,and
also tho Hebrew Orphan Asylum on Seventy
seventh street, near Third avenue, and at the lat
ter place the ceremonies were very impressive.
In tho evening a plc-nic was held- at Belviderc
Park, and speeches were made by prominent
members of the convention In both English and
German. * *.
The coroner’s inquest on the body of young
Creamer, who was killed near the concert saloon,

and one ofthe waiter girls corroborated the re
port that be was assaulted for purposes of rob
bery, and the Investigation was postponed until
Saturday.
Officer John Enedlck, of tho Twenty-first
precinct, was shot and Instantly killed on the cor
ner of First avenue and Thirty-second street last
night by one John Reed, who was arrested. He
does not deny the killing, and gives as a reason
for It his desire to revengo himself on Bnedlck for

Departure from Leavennrortb-Enthn
slustic tiireettngs at all Uie ntullcms
on the Kansas pacific Railway.
[From the I,eavemvorth (Kansas) Bulletin, July 12.1
Generals Grant, Sherman, Sheridan and Dent
left Leavenworth at 8.30 o’clock yesterday, on
their way to tho mountains. There were Boveral
hundred people at the depot to take another
look at a sight which will probably never
again be witnessed in this city. The loco
motive was trimmed with flags and wreaths.
When the 'train reached Tonganoxie it
was evident that tho people had heard tho news.
Wagons, horses, carriages, men,* women and
children—the entire population came oat to greet
the conquering heroes. The depot had been
gracefully trimmed by Mr. Liddell, the station
agent As Boon as the cars stopped a salute was
fired, the people gathered ronnd the cars, and
called for “Grant,” “Grant,” until the General
appeared. Amid great cheering ,he bowed his
acknowledgments and retired. At Reno there
was another large crowd and equal enthusiasm.
At 10,30 the train reached North Lawrence.
Not less than 3,000 peoplo were present, with a
band of.music, cannons, flags and all the Insignia
of an enthusiastic welcome. The cheering which
greeted the train was perfectly deafening, and it
was continued until Generals, Grant, Sherman
and Sheridan made their appearance. There
were repeated calls for a speech, but no Bpeech
was made. The people rushed in from all direc
tions to shake hands with the victorious General,
and no greeting was ever more sincere and heart
felt. v ' /
At Willlamsvllle,' Perryville and Medina the cars
made a brief, delay. There were crowds of>peo
p!e, flags, cheers and a joyous welcome. It was
In fact a gala day along the whole line of the
Kansas Pacific Railway. At Grantville there was
another crowd, which must have included the en
tire population In. that vicinity. General Grant
was told that the town was named for him. ,He
thought tge location a good one, and that “there
was room enough there to make a large town.”
At Perryville there was a banner with the motto:
11 The Ladles of Perryville Welcome the Next
President,” but at Grantville the men, women and
children are all for Grant and Colfax.
General Grant said he never rode through a
• finer country than the Kansas Valley. He was
surprised at the immense number of cattle and
stock and their fine appearance. V The wheat and
oats had been fully harvested. There wero thou
sands of acres of potatoes and sorn—from .four
teen to sixteen feet high—hemp and Hungarian
grass. , .
At Topeka there'was another largo crowd
of oxpcctant people. They had oiit tho old gun
which nsed to guard the city, and fired ra vigor
ous salute. The few minutes wore consumed in
cheers, band-Bh iking and greeting.
We were Unable to go farther with the train;
bnt it was verv evident that every to wn on the
whole line of the road would extend a hearty
welcome to our Generals.

tcnmenlcal Council—severe storim*, I
A letter from Rometoan English paper says; ,
“Sentries are thickly stationed au around the I
camp of the Pontifical army to prevent deser
tion. Two mornings ago, on the borders of the I
forest of Anagni, a patrol of four sqoadriglieri,
commanded by a gendarme, saw five deserters
from the Swiss carablnler regiment, coming out I
of a vineyard eating fruit The desertera were
gammoned to haltf but they fled - towards tbe
forest, where, being overtaken, they defended I
themselves with their sabres. One fWas killed,
three made prisoners, and one escaped. At tha I
frontier garrisons, the number of men who aban» 1
don their corps la really astonishing, and demon- I
strates the instability of their attachment to the I
Papal cause. Agteat influx.of men of L a,higher 1
stamp Is wanted In the Pope’s army. , bnt wbem I

“It hhß been remarked that the Pope’s bull, 1
summoning the bishops and prelates of suitable
rank to a general eonncll of the church, differs I
from those of his predecessors on similar .occa- I
sions, in that he makes no formal Invitation to
Catholic sovereigns to be present either person- I
ally or by their representatives. The practical I
separation of 'church from state in most
European countries has doubtless con
vinced the Pope that such .an lnvlta
tion would have been a mere form, bnt I
I hear that the French Ambassador has remarked
I upon ibe omission, and Intends to remonstrate on |
1 tbe subject In concert with the charge d’affaires
of Austria and Spain. A trifling circumstance,
I sueh as a new regnlalicm of; the Directors of the
I Austrian Lloyd's steatneirs,acquires importance as
I being significative of tbe estrangement now ex-
I ietlßg between Rome and Vienna;
1 bavo ceased to convey gratis,as'hcretoforefpropa-
I gas da missionaries from Ancona to the Levant,
I and vice versa.
I “The unusually stormy and rainy weather,
which has now continued here for upwards of a
I month, doing great barm to almcst all kinds of
I agricultural producp, bos recently damaged
I several of tho central railway lines. Travelers
I by the express train from Florence, Instead of
I getting here yesterday morning at nine, were
I retarded for upwards of four bonrs, In conse
gncnce of parts of the line being carried
away by torrents near Arezzo, where the travel-
I era had to get oat and proceed on foot toimother
train on this side of the damaged parts. The
train which left Rome yesterday morning for An
cona was unset near Terni, a torrent having
raised an embankment of sand across the line.
I Fortunately no one was hurt, as only the loco
motive, tender and first luggage van were actually
capsized. •
Beccptlon of our Minister in Greece—
Speeches of lOr. Tucßerman and tbe
. King. I
Mr. C. K. Tnckerman, our Minister to Greece,
recently had an audience of the King, to whom, 1
lir presenting his credentials, he Spoke as fol
lows :
"Buie —l have the distinguished honor to pre
sent to your Majesty the letter of the President
of the United States, In which I am accredited
to your Majesty’s government os Minister - Resi
dent. In performing this pleasant dnty I need
scarcely remind yon of the friendship and sympa
thy so long existing between the two nations.
These sentiments have already been more suita
bly expressed upon the occasion of the reception
of your Majesty's envoy at Washington.
‘iThe people of the United States sincerely de
' sire the prosperity and happiness of all other
nations, no matter under what form of gov
ernment they may subsist; but from the very
nature of onr own political institutions, we re
gard with peculiar satisfaction every successful
attempt at self-government in Europe.
“In this connection permit mo to consider tho
time of my arrival in Greece as especially fortu
nate. Tbe empire of law and order over the dis
turbances produced by the late election through
ont this kingdom, and the submission of the;
. people to the voice of the majority, give, from,
ihjannint of view ot our political experience, as-.
surance of free institutions.
“It Ib onr constant hope that Greece, by draw
ing, on tho one bond, from her imperishable past
the principles of pnblic liberty, and rejecting the.
elements of dißcord which were tbe cause of her
decline; and, on the other hand, by following a
well-developed system of political economy and
internal improvements, may, in a lasting peace,
realize the vows of her patriotic and persevering
people.
“If my official residence near your Majesty e
government should serve in any manner to
strengthen tbe friendship existing between our
respectice countries, and to foster their mutual
interests, my ambition will be more than satis
fied.”
The King replied to Mr. Tnckerman in these
words;
“ Me. Minister : I thank yon for tho remarks
yon have just made, and receive with peculiar
pleasure, a minister accredited to my government
from the United States. The sympathies that
unite tbe people of Greece lo those of the United
Stales date back evfcS to the time of the latter’s
first struggle for independence. ' Wholly agreeing
with these sentiments of my people, I decided,
last Mar, to send an envoy extraordinary to con
vey the expreslson of onr sympathies to the Pres
ident of the United States.
“The cordiality with which Mr. Rangabfe was
received both by your Chief Magistrate and by
the American people. at large, the government
mission with which yon are yourself charged,
and the sentiments yon have, just expressed, are
all proofs of the kindly disposition of the govern
ment and people of the United Stgfcs towards ns.;
“Both my people and I attach much value to
the friendship of the United States. There is
more than one point of resemblance between, the
two nations. Love of order and liberty forms
the basis of national character in botb. Both
have now their independence through long strife,
and many perils.
“Having a personal knowledge of yonr char
acter and abilities, sir, I am charmed that the
ehoieo of yonr government has fallen noon vonr-
Belf.as Its representative near me. I shall always!
receive yon with pleasure, and am sure that my
government will hasten to enter with yon Into
cordial and intimate relations.”

/From to-day 1 * N. V. WorldJ
Jntv 23.—The Government bond market was ham
ißercd by some- of the dealert and brofcere ior the GrcT*
n>au bankers wbo want to bay. but the offerings are
light and no laree amount could be obtained without ad*
vancing ‘ the’ market considerably. . The investment
demand ia steady* and wben Congress adjourn* a gen
eral upward novement will be the immediate* result.
The tax ,biil has become a law, and the oolv financial
hill which will be passed this session is that authorising
the Issue of $25,000,000 of 8 per cent certificate-,
which will affect the money market practically
the same as a similar new issue - of . green
backs. Tbe German bankers who have oversold their ex
change* and have Dot yet bought their bonds. to covqr,
were hammering the 1864 a to-day for the purpose of buy
ing them io shiptoEuiope against the exchange they
have sold. The 1864 s are selling a. 1 per cent less than
the old 18*5*4 and as they areincreasingmf iVortbere,aud
no round lots of old 1865 s can be bought without advanc
ing tbe price lor 2 per cent, the bankers have deter
mined to buy the 1864 s in their place. Tb« discus
• sion of the greenback question, and the dispropor
tionate high price* to which the ten-forties have been nin
up under tbe impreesion that the act of Congress which
authorized them is more explicit in affirming that the
principal shall be paid io coin, has turned the attention
of some foreign firms to tbe act of March 3,1865. Under
this act of Congress, March 8,1*65. tho Secretary of the
Treasury has issued tbe 1865 s 1867 s and 1868«, and thefnl
i towing abetract of that law that all these bonds are
! made, principal ard interest, specifically payable in coin.
I The act of Congress says: • • ~ ;
The pi indpalor interest; or both, may be made payable
incoinorotnerlawfnlmouey: , . > • ’ : _*• •
Provide d That the rate Of interest on any suchbonds or
Treasury notea, when payable in coin, shall not exceed 6
percent per annum, anawuefi not payable in corn, anal! ;
not exceed 7 B*lo per cent per annnmi »
The Secretary of the Treasury is made by this act the
I only power that can define when the bonas issaed under
i this flet are, principal or interest, or both, pay*bU in coin «
I oTothei lawful money. The Secretaryof the Treasury i
I has declared and oftciaUyrsinett tbe l&s, 1867 a and 1868s*
I as payable. principal ana interest. In C9IQ* TbO law-,
I therefore, in the case of vbese bonds bdh* payable, pnfl*
I dpal and interest, in coin, is as clearly and' positively af
-1 firmed as i»= tbe act which authorizes the ten-forties. The
I difference of only 1 per cent between tbe ten-forties and
I the new 1865 s and 1667 s is disproportionate, as it is usually
! frcmBto6percent The ten-forces declined under the
fireesure of sales by parties who are gelling them and bay
ug 1867 s The 1862 b and old 1865 s are scarce, and the offer
t iDgB light Of the 1864 s the wh.le amount of coupon
I -bonds fe only about 850-000,000, and there are very few in
tbe hendsof dealers, being held outside mostly for invest
| merit Tbe 1867 s were hammered down to 10&£@1»9?8 by
I some of the large dealers who want to buy. Trio foreign
bond marktt is firm, and the 1861* and tho old 1865* in this
market arc scarce, and heavily oversold by tbe bean.
I [Prom tb*t New York Herald of to-day.l
{ Jrxv Si—The gold market has been steady and rather
quiet to-dayAsnd the fluctuations were from 143fc to 143 ] £.
with the closing transactions prior to the adjournment of
the board oi 143iL following which therewas no change
I in the premium. The eurph of coin for immediate
delivery was in excess of the borrowing demand,
and loana were made at fates varying from 2)6
to 4 per cent for carrying. The gross clear
ings amounted to 543 844 000, the gold balances to $1617,-
871. and the currency balances to $2.331304 The steamer
Bremen took out 81P5.000 in specie. On the Stock Ex
change there was a moderate degree of speculative ac
tivity in railway ebares and prices were without material
change a though late in the afternoon a alight decline
wrs experienced. Tho temper of the street continues
favorable to higher prices.
The market for government securities has been ex
truneij dull all day. At the opening, prices were about
the same as at the close last evening, hot at the noon call
there were modfrate sales to reallz**, under which a de
cline of } a <S>k percent, took place, except in the rixo** l *f
1881. which remained firm under the foreign demand.
Five-twenties were sreMswin both London
and Frankfort Advicer Txbm- • Washington can
thane to indicate the defeat of the Funding bill as it
is considered impossible for both houses to
Bgree upon any measure of the kind and, all things taken
Into consideration, it is much better that it sho-Ud be de
feated, although practically the effect of itß passage
would be about the same aa its'defeat, for as it make*
tbe conversion of the outstanding bond" into the pro
posed new loan optional the result would be
that no one would convert under the
act, and therefore it-would remain a dead letter
The foreign exchange markt.t has been du’l and heavy
in tone, although ratea were nominally unchanged There
is a considerable amount of sterling oills drawn against
shipments of five-twenties, which are offered at 110, and.
ii some instances, at below this rate; but the lead
ing orHwersrefuse to name arlower one than HOM * or
tbe-r bills at sixty days. In addition to this source of
surplv tbe bill** of tbe Erie Railway Company against its
recent bhlo of je200,000 of sterling bonds have found their
vay to the afreet. The amount of produce bills offering
is. however, light. At the close hankers 1 MU on England,
rixtv days, were quoted at ilo@Uo>.t, at three days. 110 j b
@110^; commercial bills. 109.X<%1U9?«; banko'fl* bills on
Fane, at sixty days, 8.13&<56.12&. . „ ,
There i* no change to note in the condition of the mo
ney market, which ia one of extreme ease. Loans on
n terellaneous collaterals are made freely at four per
cent, while on government securities the general.rnto is
ihreo, where tho regular dealers are tho borrowere. The
"iipply of loanable funds is' considerably in excess of tbe
demand snd thero is no probability af any material
©bar ge in tbe aspect of affairs for »ixty days to come, al
though the rate of of interest will probably be advanced
io six and seven per cent, in September. The indications
are, however; against Stringency at anytime this year,
or indeed to long as y the -government is not a bor
rower, currenry contraction remnina stopped and trad-;
' continues as at present, devoid -of speculative :feature«
The' monetary ease wnlch.prevails here extends to all tho
leading cities to tbe East and West and the reserve of nn
-4ional hank notes at-this centre is larger than usual
Moreover, the act that Congress baa authorized the ieaue
of new three per cent, certificates to nearly tbe amount of
the compound interestneten outstanding, and that these
w ill be issued to the hanks in redemption of the latter as
! fast as they mature, all disturbance arißingfrom their ma
turity will be guarded'ggaipsti ,'

THE COURTS.
Quarter Sessions— Judge Brewster.—Assault
and battery cases were taken up this morning,
and the whole morning was consumed in the
trial of Patrick Finnegan and Daniel H. Goners,
charged in crossbills with'an assault and battery
on each other. The dispute originated about
twenty dollars which a friend of Coners, It was
alleged, hod lost in Finnegan’s tavern, but which
Finnegan contended must have been taken by/
oihcre who were with the men, while ho. watJ
drank. Finnegan, was acquitted, and Coners was
convicted and sentenced to pay a fine of $6..
• George Jackel pleaded guilty to a charge or,
assault and battery. It was alleged that Jackel l
went to the prosecutor’s, Wm, Jeffries’ house, at
night and assaulted him with a blackjack. In
answer to this, the defendant called his slßter, who
testified that she had been followed on several oc
casions by Jeffries and insulted; that her brother
heard of it. and then balled at the house of Jef
fries, and administered the punishment com
plained of,
Jeffries denied having insnlted the young lady.
Jndge Brewßtersaid that if a man isaolta a
femaie, and especially one of tender years, as in
the present case, he should not be surprised if he
was assaulted. If the attack had been wanton,
he should be compelled to imprison the defen
dant, bnt he should take into consideration the
provocation which the. defendant had received,
and regulate the sentence accordingly. Sen
tenced to pay, a fipe of $5O and costs, ’’and to,
enter security in @5OO to keep the peace for six
monthß.
Under the testimony, the Jddge said he was
compelled to hold Jeffries; the prosecutor, to,
bail, in $5OO, to keep the peace for, one year. .
