There is a mysterious movement'observ able in the rebel ranks at the present mo ment, which is worthy of the careful atten tion of the Republican party. The conven tion of rebel generals, which was held in Tennessee recently, issued a peaceful mani festo, and professed pacific intentions. But, as is well known, the leading men in it made violent and treasonable speeches, and Fort Pillow Forrest threatened the country with war in which no quarter should be given A second time these men have assembled. •r prculnaze .- •-r..`zv U UUY - tire ieau ing military and civil - officers of the late rebel government, headed by General Lee and A. IL Stephens, are now in conclave at White Sulphur Springs in Virginia. Their purpose is not entirely manifest, but we believe that their deliberations bode no good to the coun try. The character of the men as unrepent ant rebels, would of itself indicate this, °vela, if we had not the evidence afforded by the ill concealed exultation of the rebel jour nals over the anticipated results of the con gress. _ It is asserted that General Rosecrans has scught an interview with these men as an agent of Mr. Johnson, who appears to have been in the confidence of those who arranged the meeting. His object is said to be to in duce the rebel leaders to use their influence in the South "to effect a reconciliation of the 'apple" with those of the North. The design ire of itself a laudable one, but there are two objections to its being carried out in this fashion. General Rosecrans has been ap _pointed to represent this government, in Mexico, and not to mediate between it and dpmestic enemies; and secondly, the only possible way for General Rosecrans or any other person to "effect a reconciliation" will be to induce the rebel leaders and their rebel followers to abandon Their treasonable designs, to stop threatening us with war, and to make up their minds to obey the laws in spirit and let ter. We can have fellowship upon these t-rms, arid upon no others. The Democratic appeal for forgiveness of their rebel friends is insolent in the face of their open and de clared adherence to their lost cause. There must be repentance before there can be par- Jlon, and the present attitude of the rebels, who come before us with threats and denun ciations, is calculated rather to cause regret for our leniency in the past, and to induce a sternjesolve to do justice in the future. While General Rosecrans may honestly believe in the sincerity of his constituent in ~ the White Rouse, and in the amiable inten tions of his late enemies, we have not the slightest faith in either of them. The Demo cratic party has gone over soul and body to the rebels. The distance was not great, and it was bridged by the members of the party who were converts already,and by those who were in various degrees of sympathy with the rebel element. In pursuance of their cus tomary policy to gain voters to their ranks of whatever color, creed or conflicting interest, they have determined to make a desperate ellort to carry the whole South for their candidates in the coming campaign. For this purpose they gave the rebels almost controlling influence in their conven tion, and for this they are now negotiating with them in a body at White Sulphur Springs. It is credibly reported that in the *vent of a Democratic success these men are to have a share in the division of the spoils; there is to be an abolition of all test oaths; full reinstatement of the rebel leaders in places of authority, and, eventually, the pay ment ol_thesebel debt_ Wilda _Hampton is sufficient authority for the last statement, and he has not hesitated boldly to affirm it. Over throw of the reconstruction acts and disfran chitement of the blacks are promised already in the platform. Time will show this to be the object of the present intrigues, and we now warn the peo ple of the necessity for laboring earnestly to defeat the machinations of these conspirators and to overthrow their powerful organization. Let no man doubt the facts, or consider them f trivial importance. We are again brought face to face with our old antagonists, and we have to fight over again our old battle for the preservation of the country and the laws. If we fail to rise to the lull demands of the occa sion, the contest may once more be in the field. The victory now can only be won by patient, earnest and intelligent effort on the part of every Republican in the ranks. In dolence and carelessness in the present crisis stre simply suicidal THE GHEEII 9.N HEAD. The last female folly is the "Grecian bend." We believe the "Grecian bend" has not yet reached Philadelphia, but it is raging at Saratoga and other fashionable watering places, and may be expected in- the cities, Ibis Winter. It Is not the cattle plague or any epidemic of that sort, -but its way, quite as much new_ is, in- .to be feared and, if possible, averted from -Thiladelifhla. It would indeed be a grievous - 4 calamity, if after passing through the summer ceraiiiiTelhing firabscriie, sat the jour nalist is bound to watch- over-the-physical and moral welfare of the community, and to warn his •readers against whatever „threatens the peace of their homes or the health and reputation of any class of the people. , The "Grecian bend" is the last female folly lin the fashionable world. It is aside-growth of the Black Crook and White Fawn system 1 of social morals, inasmuch as it springs from a tendency toward an open disregard of that feminine delicacy and decency which were once the universal rule of American so ciety, but which have been so painfully in vaded by the importation of the nude drama, with all its demoralizing effects. A Saratoga correspondent thus describes this new mon strosity: " In the first place, a toilet is affected,Which of itself suilloes to Mtn a woman in fall dress into a caricature. The body and waist of, the dress are remarkable in only oue respect—the list is ex ceedingly tight, and the formerrather loose at the -top and exceeding low. It is below the waist that what is monstrous in tho costume first attracts and then repels the eye of man. A hoop of mo derate dimensions, overspread with an nnierakirt or two, and a dress of whatever fabric, am worn. Underneath the rear of this hoop, just below the waist of the person designated, is bound it . coil of wire from two to three Inches in diameter, which ' throws out' and elevates the upper por tion of the dress behind, and forms the founda tion, so to speak, of an exterior Protuberance called the panzer. The pan ler is i bustle, more or less enormous, upon which, in successive folds or layers gathered up, or confined by a band encir cling the dress from the stomach of .the wearer around and beneatb 4 an extra skirt, reaching just below the hips, hangs, or rather `wobbles', to and fro. The dress has a train from four twists ieet in length." This dress, in itself, might not be more un graceful or "loud" than many another that has preceded it. That it violate's the first man badly dressed who is conspicuously dressed, is true, but we have all long ago sur rendered that poibt - at discretion. But the "Grecian bencl ,, consists, not so much in the peculiarity of the costume, as in the fashiona ble method of carrying it off, which is thus graphically described by the same writer: "The posture affected in order to sot off this attire is called the "Grecian Bend," 'a contortion of the body which,as it's highly improper in itself, I find it dillicult to describe with propriety. High-heeled shoes dispose the wearer to incline forward, and high-heeled gaiters are therefore adopted by the "belle of the seasdu." She is thus the more readily enabled to elevate her hips unnaturally behind, enhancing the aspect of the panic', to contract her stomach, and to forth an IS—like curvature of her upper shape by thrusting - out her chest, drawing back her shoulders and bending forward her head. So bent and detornied, the belle constrains her elbows against her sides ; and, with horizontal forearms and little gloved hands dangling from limp wrists, Lilts painfully along. The profile of such a figure, and its ungraceful gait, are irresistibly suggestive of a lame kangaroo When it is whirled and tossed about in a dance by oae of the fashionable jumping-jacks in black broad cloth who are here so numerous, and so much alike that you can hardly tell one from another, the sight—what with the bobbing up and down of the woman's punier and the agile sidelong leaps of the jumping -jack across the immense trail piled on the tinor—is too exasperatingly ridiculous for laughter." Perhaps the greatest outrage about this odious fashion is giving it the title "Grecian.' We are so in the habit of associating the word with the noble simplicity of drapery which characterized the earlier Greek sculp tors, and with the exquisite grace and natural dignity of the female form which constitute the glory of the undraped Venus de Medici, that we protest instinctively against the use of the word, to describe this modem abomi. nation of dress and posture It must not be assumed that the "Grecian bend," with its vulgar contortions and expo- sures, is confined to the demi-monde. It is "the fashion," and if it were ten times more abominable than it is it would have its run with a class of ultra-fashionists, who think more of the dicta of their French Milliners than of all the codes of morals, the rules of good taste and the requirements of feminine propriety and modesty that society has ever recognized. As Americans we . are proud to be able to believe that this elms of American women is in a miserably sm'all minority, and even tbat minority would be reduced still more if cultivated men and respectable matrons who move in fashionable society would have moral courage enough to draw some line, beyond which the manners and customs of the modern French ballet should not be in truded upon the refined company of modest and well-bred women, who are the best orna ments and truest attractions of any really good American society. C %BINE r %WORK A semiofficial announcement has been made from the White House, _by which it appears that the Cabinet is as evenly divided as it can be, on the Presidential question. Four of the Secretaries. Randall, Weilea, Browning and McCulloch, are said to be thoroughly-pledged—for Seymour and - 711lair, - while three, Seward, Schofield and Evarts are understood to favor the election of Grant and Colfax. We may therefore expect to have the Post-offices, the Navy Yards and Custom Houses running their whole ma chinery in favor of repudiation and war, until after the election. The portion of the Cabinet which has sense enough to endorse Grant, Honesty and Peace,-bas little or no patronage to use in elec tioneering, if it desired to do so, but it is a very marked testimony to the strength of the Republican candidates, that the State, War and Law Departments of the Government prefer Andrew Johnson's fro arris to the smiles of Seymour and Blair. It is hard on the clerks -and other officials who are thus to be forced into the hopeless ranks of the-opposition : —to—General--Grant.— They can do nothing but put their own necks in jeopardy, and with such an overwhelming certainty of defeat, they will bless the obsti nate apostacy of their chiefs, - which drags them down to do dirty work in a cause for which a very large proportion of them have no heart. - There will be no little confusion among the departments at Washington if half of them are to• be run for Seymour and half for Grant. The Treasury Department is di-: vided against itself, sturdy - Rollins' standing resolutely to his pest, and refusing to put Any _ but good, loyal men on duty, while McCul loch as resolutely refuses to accept the nomi nation of the most unexceptionable officers, _THEIMILY_FT_EI s TING I BULiETIIi --- PHILATELPHIA-,-TUESDA-YOIIIGUBI4S-,-1868. We published yesterday a sworn state ment of the English shipmaster irk_whos vessel Mr. Vallandigbam ran the blockade. By this it appears that the Ohio Rebel im proved his exile in the Confederacy to plot fresh treason against his country. Re went to Canada as the accredited agent of Jefferson Davis, to arrange riots in New York . . and Boston, for the purpose of creating. .a &Ver sion in favor of Lee, who was then preparing for his second invasion of Maryland. Boston loyalty watt too staunch, but the success of Vallandigham's machinations in : . New York city.is historical. This infamous traitor is now a prominent.: leader of the Democratic party. Through his immediate personal ef fort Seymour was nominated, and he has au daciously idented himself to the people of Ohio as a candidate for Congress. • Are the loyalpeople of this land prepared to - forget the mighty agony Of -that fearful civil war, and to make of no effect the sacrifice,of our soldiers' lives, by endorsing this man and 'his friends? Eieri , man whO votes the Demo cratic ticket sets the seal of his,approval upon Vallandigham's wicked treachery. The tide of travel which ebbed 'outward from the beginning of the heated term until • • , /-yria---mw---eetting 4n -theti direction, and temporary sojourners at places of summer resort are returning home by hun dreds and thousands. The influence of this flood-tide is already felt by the business part of the community and in the course of a few weeks our merchants and shop-keepers will be driving trade with their wonted vigor, and the work of shopping which was temporarily suspended, will be resumed with that earnest ness for which shoppers have always been distinguished. Despite the unsettled conli ion of things which it seems to be the special mission of Andrew Johnson and the Demo cratic party to foster, there are fair prospects of a good frill trade and a prosperous winter season. Merchants and traders who have nerve and enterprise will make money, and consumers who read their ailvertisements in the columns of the BULLETIN and profit by lire information which they afford, will receive a fair return for their expenditures. We are glad tiS see that Fenianism, with all its follies, is not responsible for the wicked folly of attempting the life of Queen Victoria. Later cable.:despatches divest the affair of all political signification, and reduce it to the tact of a crazy Englishman being fchntil prowling near the Queen's apartments. The Fenians having a good many sins of their own to answer for, we have no desire to Eaddle them with any others. Napoleon's speech at Troyes plainly asserts that France will not disturb the peace of Eu rope. The whole policy of his government, the vast accumulation of war material, and the enforcement of the oppressive conscrip tion laws prove that belligerent designs are entertained. In view of the Emperor's doubt ful reputation as a speaker of the truth, the world will be apt to accept his deeds rather :ban his words. Our Sprightly young neighbor, the Morn ing Post, is making a very successful little paper, and we have no objection to its using our special despatches from Washington and elsewhere, provided it does not call them "epecial despatches to the Poet."

Dentitth to the Philadelphim Evening Bulletin.l WAsnotoroN, Angas.t 25.—1 t is generally ad mitted here that so remarkably extensive a con gregation of rebels that is now assembled at White Sulphur Springs in Virginia must have political significance. In addition to the rebel generals whose names have been published there are now at that place a great number of representative Dentocratie politicians from every Southern State, with the heaviest effipitallsts and railroad men of that section. The great interests such men have involved In the election of Seymour and .Blair are ob vious. Those likely to be well inforrnei assert that the whole • future policy of the adherents of the "Lost Cause" is to be determined in the ecticlave at Greenbrier, and that among the subjects to be disposed of are the running of tickets in excluded States, and the organization and general conduct of the campaign.

Destructive Fire in Williamsport. 1137iniauteport (Pa.} Standard, August zitb.) A few minutes before twelve o'clock on Satur day night, one or two persons discovered a flame in the barn of Mr. Barrett, and as soon as possi ble, made an e ff ort to quench it, but failed. Owing to the want of water the flames rapidly , spread from ono stractare to another, until no lees than •six barns and the church became food for the devouring element. The barns were mostly filled with hay end grain, involving considerable loss beyond - the frame work. Mr. Barrett lost a horse. Fl o m window to roof, from roaf to steeple, it tsprend with frightful speed. The bell tolled until the beat drove the mett from the rope. It was a grand and imposing eight, causing one almost to forget the sad restate it caused. The church was destroyed. The upholstery, chairs, etc. , were all stvad by interested friends, and a sympathizing com munity. The cost of the church was upwards of twenty thousand dollars. The stables belonged to ex-Governor Packer, Mr. Barrett, Mr. Betmoi der, George Rothrocr, J. J. Ayres and Mr. Weisel. We would judge that the loss on each barn would average $l,OOO. -This-was.-no doubt, the work of an incendiary. The intur,ance upon the church is $9,000, the other buildings were only partly insured. ouiruAtiv. Death OS Ebenezer Irving. Ebenezer Irving, eldest and surviving brother of Washington Irving, died at Sannyside last Sat urday evening. He was boin in the year 1775, and had passed far beyond the "three score and ten." "Brom," as he was familiarly called by his brother, was a favorite at Bannyside, and here, surrounded by his daughters, he gently breathed his last. His tastes ran in mercantile ways, and he was his brother's agent and business man. lie was scrupulously exact in all his dealings. Bunnyside fell to him by the will of Washington Irving, and under its provisions he was made one of the executors of the estate. He leaves two dan.ht re_and__two sons. Perhaps—no -- bette tribute could be paid to his memory than the words of his gifted brotner in a letter to a friend: "It is now entirely a month since Brother Ebenezer has been at the Cottage. I Defer have known him to be so long abs( nt before, unless when on a jour ney. I think him one of the most perfect exem plifications of the Christian character I have ever known. He has all father's devotion and zeal, without his strictness. Indeed, his piety is of the most genial and cheerful kind, interfering with no rational pleasure or elegant taste, and obtruding itself upon no one's habits, opinions, or pursuits. I wish to God I could feel like him. I envy him that indwelling source of consolation and enjoyment which appears to have happier effect than all the maxims of philosophy or the lessons of worldly wisdom." John Bull in China—it Fatal Mlistrikke— slaughtering Harmless traders. A British gunboat In the China seas not long fine° made a savage attack upon what it sap- Posed to be a fleet of piratical junks. The Strait. Times of July 4tb (published at Hong Bong), makt 8 the following statement in reference to thisionfortunate affair: • •: ''A very painful discovery Itaa been made In connection _with_the- end agernentr-the-gtlohttli -LAlately had with a fleet of Chinese junks, EininoFed to be pirates, down the west coast. One of these, it will be remembered, was captured, and brought to Hong Kong. It was hero ascer tained, atter a while. 11t,i the fleet bad not been a pirate fleet at all. but bad simply been com posed of Canton trading junks, on their way to Hainan, which had been sailing in com pany for their own - protection. It most he understood that the trading junks are almost as much in fenr of' the. _Chinese_covernmeot-genbrutte-as-of-the plrsttes. Latterly, in particular, these revenue cruisers have been levying black mail at sea over and above the regular duty which the Chinese mer chants have paid on their goods. Of course such proceedings were utterly illegal, bat the victims bud no remedy at their disposaL To resist the cruisers they had, it seems, determined to sail on this voyage strongly armed and in company. Of course it is very painful to think that a British gunboat attacked them with round shot and grape, and slaughtered Immense num bers of innocent persons. That the junks brought their misfortunes on their own beads by perdu°, rionsly refusing to show their papers is but an imperfect consolation. The Algerine had a Chi nese onboard, by whose authority she attacked the junks; and whether he was misled as to their character, or deliberately made Use of the English gunboat as a tool with which' to wreak vengeance on tho native merchants wherhad suc ceeded In escaping from the government 'squeeze,' is a question not eons to answer." i nim p umb Another New Planet-., ...:., very 01 a hew 'Worldly' the IFleavens by the Llanallton college Astronomer.

This makes three bales of new cottomreseived in Savannah—one from Thomas county,Gcorgia, on the 13th inst., and one from Decatur county, Georgia, on the 17th inst„having been already re ported.

Loans were made from "fiat," to three and a half per cent. for carrying. The Sub-Treasury disbursed $28,000 in coin In payment of Interest on the public. debt. The tin ports of specie at the port from foreign ports last week ws re valued at $282,745, making a total of $4,956,109 since the Ist of January. The grois clearings mounted to $41,202,000, the gold bal ances to $1,225,617, and the currency balances.to $1,02,840. The fact that we have shipped about sixty-ionr-millions-of-the-pmeions-metals-fro” this port since the Ist of January, and that the balance of coin belonging to the government in the Treasury has fallen considerably below the average imports, gives an upward tendency, to premium. Added to these causes we have another in the continued preponderance of our foreign imports over our exports. While the imports at this port for the week ending on the 21st inst. were valued at $6,644 290 in gold, the ex ports of domestic products were valued at 'only $2,772,663 in currency; and herein we have the key to the shipments of spe cie, notwithstanding the large amounts of five-twenties and other national securities which we have sent to Europe. To such an ex tent of late years have these been expbrted that it is now estimated that seven hundred millions are held abroad. But above all commercial con siderations in immediate importance is the finan dal question, the agitation of which during the coming Presidential campaign can hardly fail to stimulate the upward, tendency , of gold. Money continues'in abundant supply at fonr per cent. on mixed collaterals,but the exceptional transactions below this rate are very few, even on government securities, and at the same time there is eqnsily little business at any higher rate. Although the drain of currency westward Is stUl going forward actively it has exerted no material effect as yet upon the money market at this centre. A Chicago journal of Friday thus refers to this feature of the situation: • 'Currency continues to arrive in large amounts from New York, but orders from the interior ab sorb all ibis daily, and sometimes more, which keeps the supply here down to rather a low point though there is still sufficient for all legitimate requirements, and first class names are ..retiAllt. ;.crf --- fid - i - is ead ually decreasing, so is the market gradually tightening, and ere long we look fora close mar ket. Rates of interest remain steady and un changed at ten per cent. per annum. The market for government securities &vet ope : renewed weakness this morning and prices gradually yielded until late in the afternoon. The principal dealers appear indisposed to buy in the absence of any considerable demand from the public, and hence the tendency of prices is the reverse of encouraging to the bulls. The apprehended agitation'of the financial question during the Presidential campaign Is at the same time not without depressing influences. 1:tom the N. YOVerld at today, A rocs 24.—The money market is hardening, and some bf the banks have called in a large amount of their loans running at 3 per cent. Most of the back managers are alive to their dan gerously expanded condition, and the necessity for prompt action to prepare for the drain of currency to the interior, and for lower prices on the securities they - hold as cella it rsls for call loans. The rates for loans to-day range from 4 to 5 per cent. on call, and few business Lotus are taken under 7 per cent. The tumble in Erie from 70 to 44, and the decline in the market prices of other stocks,have created a feeling of uneasiness among banks and money lenders which causes scrutiny of bor row( r- and collaterale. Two unimportant fail ures of brokers en the New York Stock Exchange were re port. d today, and rumors are afloat in regard to other firms who were heavily long of swap.
