SORE-HEADED DIPLOMACY.
The animus of General Rosecrans's late
awkward mission to the rebel conclave at the
White Sulphur Springs is so evident that his
attempt to deprecate public criticism and to
escape the natural condemnation which fol
lows his initial essay at diplomacy only
ex
cites a smile of contempt and derlaktn. Gene
ral Rosecrans has never recovered from the
effects of his military failure at the West.
Some of his earlier services were of great
value to the country; but, like many another
soldier of the early period of the war, he
failed to expand with the increasing scale of
events, and became, at last, a hindrance and
annorMce to General Grant to a degree
which carried him to the verge of insubordi
nation. General Grant was at last relieved of
the presence of his unsatisfactory lieutenant,
and General Rosecrans soon ceased to occupy
any prominent place in the subsequent
history of the war. We are not unmindful of
the good service that he did render, nor un
grateful for it, but he was not of those who
"endured unto the end." He went into pri
vate life, sore-headed at his own want of suc
cess, and full of jealousy and ill-will to ward
`General Grant. And this is the simple, ob
vious key to his late mission.to the rebels at
White Sulphur Springs. Possessed with
some exalted idea of his diplomatic gifts, he
conceived the brilliant idea that a manifesto
from the leading rebels of the south, if couched
in proper language, would be at once
damaging to General Grant and bone-
Bela! to Seymour. He accordingly
posts off to the Springs and propounds a series
of leading questions to Robert E. Lee, who,
in the absence of Jefferson Davis, seems to be
accepted as the embodiment of the rebel sen
timent. To these questions Lee replies in the
desired form, and Rosecrans returns to Wash
ington, crowning himself with the laurels of
an original and exceeding brilliant diplomat.
After he gets away from the gay and festive
scenes of the rebel headquarters, however, he
begins to have some unpleasant misgivings
that possibly he has been making a fool of
himself after all. He discovers that the
watchful press of the North has its eyes
upon him and that it has readily
fathomed the secret of his mysterious
mission. And so he rushes into print with an
eagerness that only confirms the suspicion
that he has mixed himself up in a piece of
political intrigue, which will, sooner or later,
prove more costly than profitable to him. He
hastens to declare that his mission was a self
conceived one, and that "no party had any
thing to do with it, no individual."
'using ay tae ex eme • undiplomatic
style of this awkwardly expressed sentence,
we simply remark that General Rosecrans is
not thoroughly ingenuous in this statethent.
Possibly the idea may have grown up in his
own brain. Possibly he may have been the
first to imagine that Lee and Beauregard and
Stephens could draw a letter of
credit upon the mind of the loyal
people of this country. It was an
idea not likely to be revealed to common
minds, and, so far, we do not quarrel with
his denial. But when he says that no party
or individual had anything to do with it, we
beg to say that the weight of evidence is al
together against him. His conferences with
the President before and after his trip; his
a nversations at the Springs, in-which he
avowed his sympathies with Seymour and
Blair, and his anxiety to defeat Grant; hi s
posting with his precious
. document to lay it
before u the Democratic magnates of New
York, before giving it to the public; all this
conduct is abundant proof that Resecrans is
working in and for the Democratic party,
despite any denials he may choose to make.
His Patriotic protestations are the merest
pretence, when read in the light of
his well-known personal hostility to General
Grant; and the whole affair, so disgracefully
unworthy of any one holding a high diplo
matic appointment tinder the Government, is
made infinitely worse by his attempts to de
ceive the public as to its true nature.
The absurdity of this whole scheme lies in
the utter worthlessness of the witnesses
whom Resecrans summons to testify in regard
to the condition of Southern feeling. Who
are Lee and Beauregard and Stephens, that
the people of this country should listen to
their words or follow their counsel? It
is presuming too much on the volatility
of the American mind to suppose that
we have already forgotten that Lee
was a deliberate traitor to the country that
had made him all that he ever was, up to th 9
slay that he forswore himself and became a
leader of rebels; or that the gascOn Beaure
gard's call for the black flag, and Stephens's
corner-etc:me of human slavery, have already
pasted from memory. These men should be
gratefully content that an over -lenient gov
ernment permits them to live upon their
native soil That they should ever venture
to raise their 'voices again in public, or lay
Wain to the confidence of the people, eviaces
a hardihood that is simply amazing. Ramp
ton, Fame, Cobb, Toombs and othe
rebels• have spoken out their rebel
thoughte ; jotter - the impulses of the
stump and. the platfona, and there is an air of
sincerity about their infamous doctrines that
carries with it infinitely more of conviction
than can pbssibly be secured by the cau
-1 tionsly concocted manifesto of a secret con
clave of rebel1701:1 tcoo s. o e atter may
seek to calm the - fndignation and alarm which
the outspoken threats of the former have nat
urally excited; but there is an air of truth
about the excited harangues orthe returning
-- dtlegates to the Tammany Convention,which
is utterly wanting in the cool , lolooded pro
gramme which Rosecrans so proudly claims
as his own pet invention.
TIME FALL TRADE.
The prospect of a large. aud aetive trade
during the coming season has been very en
couraging, and merchants have prepared
themselves to meet an unusually heavy de
mand for all classes of goods. The hopes of
business men have, of course, been centered
chiefly upon the West. Throughout that
section the harvesits have been very bountiful,
and there is a degree of general prosperity
which will react upon the whole country.
The crop of cereals, as far as gathered, is
enormous, and those remaining in the fields
give promise of als equally profitable yield.
The wool clip is also large, and the number
of hogs slaughtered will probably exceed that
of any preceding year. ' The demand for
these products, fortunately, is fully equal, if
not superior to the supply, and Western pro
ducers will find an active market for their
goods, both in the Eastern and Middle
States and in • Europe. lii the
meantime the West stands greatly
-in need of all the fabrics oOlour East
ern manufacturers,and these reciprocal wants
furnish all the conditions necessary for an
enormous business. The stocks of goods
the West were never before so small as they'
are at present. In many sections the shelyes
of the country stores are almost bare of goods,
and the disposition of the merchants, after the
election, will be to make the lavish invest
ment which the full pockets of their custo
mers WM to authorize. In the woollens
market,..particularly; will there be a heavy
demand for every grade of goods. Last year
the large sales of government clothing, which
took place all over the country, supplied, in
a great measure, the wants of certain classes
of buyers, and inflicteevery perceptible in
jury upon dealers in woollens. But this
stock is exhausted and worn out now, and
the demand mnst be supplied from legitimate
sources.
Despite the high promise given by these
circumstances, trade has not opened with the
expected vitality. Buyers are plentiful, but
they purchase with great caution, procuring
one month's supply of goods at a time,
instead of laying in six months' stocks.
There is a very evident apprehensioa of a
fluctuation of values. In some quarters a
decline is anticipated, from the fact
that all classes of consumers are exer
cising narrow economy; and this will ensure
a comparatively limited consumption. But
it is not to be disguised that the feeling of
uncertainty is largely attributable to the atti
tude of the Democratic party in the campaign.
Pledged as it is tb positive repudiation, even
remote possibility of success creates distrust.
A triumph for that party, followed by repu
diation and consequent depreciation of the
currency, would unsettle values, demoralize
trade, and cause infinite perplexity, and per
haps disaster to the mercantile community.
Until General Grant's election is an assured
fact, then, we may expect buyers to exercise
carefulness, and to make nice calculations of
their simple necessities.
The prospect of a good Southern trade is
not as bright as it should be. With the ex
ception of a few old houses in the South,
whose integrity has a well-proved existence,
there is no disposition to give credit to
Southern merchants. If they come to
Northern marketa_tobuy, -they-must - hirve the
cash in their pockets. This, many of them
will be able to do. The cotton crop this
year is very large, and it will command first
rate prices, both in this country and in
Europe, for the cotton crop of India is an
entire failure, and British mills, as in old
times, will be compelled) to obtain their
supply of the staple 4 1. 0 m the United States.
The reasonable hope that there would be a
complete re-establishment of confidence in
our commercial relations with the South,
as soon as the Southern States resumed their
position in the Union under the re
construction laws, bas not been realized. The
Democratic party, headed by Southern rebels,
is entirely responsible for this condition of
things. That party is commitied_ta the over
throw of Congressional reconstruction, and
business men can see in its triumph only a
return of the Southern States to their former
disorganized, anarchical condition. This has
been utterly destructive in the past of that
confidence which is the vital element of trade,
and it will have the same influence in the
future.
Both the Western and the Southern trade,
then, are dependent for profitable existence
upon the triumph of the Republican party,
and merchants who perceive this fact, as all
must who are guided rather by their reason
than their prejudices, will comprehend the
importance of every effort being made upon
their part to secure General Grant's election.
TLIE WAR IN PARAGUAY.
Brazil and her allies seem at kit to have
obtained some decided advantages over the
Paraguayans. The fortress of Humaita has
been defended:lolth a persistence and bra
very equal to that shown by the Russians at
Sebastopol or that of the rebels in Vicksburg
and Richmond. But it has at last been cap
tured, and at the last accounts, the, victors
were following up their success, and driving
the Paraguayans to the Interior.
Every friend of humanity must rejoice at
the prospect of a termination to the struggle
that has gone on so long. . Even_ the victors
have been nearly exhausted, and the people
of Brazil and the allied States had „grown
weary of the contest. The firmness, aiiiormt
ing to obstinacy, of the Emperor, Dom Pedro,
has alone kept up the fight on the part of the
allies; and now that, he is rewarded by decided
success, he may recover the popularity
which he had lost: by perstwerance
in a bloody and costly war, whQh
has almost exhausted the resources of his na
tion jnlnen and money. The result of his
success will probably be the curtailment: or

SCHOOL OF DESIGN FOS WOKEN.
. The next "school year" of the Philadelphia
School of Design for Women will begin on
the 14th of Septetnber. For a number of
years this excellent institution has straggled
along, amid many obstacles.' But it has at
last won the confidence of the public, and we
trust that each year will see it more and more
liberally supported. Mr. T r — .W. Braldwood is
the Principal of the school. W. J. Horst
manii, Esq., is President; James H. Orne,
Esq., Vice President; P. P. Morris, Esq.,
Secretary, and James L. CtaghOrn, E3q ,
Treasurer. In addition to these the Board of
Directors includes the names of Messrs. W. P.
Wilstack, David S. Brown, James A. Wright,
Redwood F. Warner, George Whitney, E.
W. Clark, Jay Cooke and John Sartain. The
Faculty of the school is as follows :
Prof. C. Schussele, Antique and Life Classes.
Prof. T. Moran, Landscape Classes.
Prof. A. Kollner, Lithography Class.
Prof. A. R. Thomas, M. D. Lecturer on Anat
om.
Pr y of. T. C. Aler, D. D., Lecturer on Botany.
Prof. A. G. Heattm,- Lecturer on the General
Principles of Drawhis. „
Mrs. J.F. Gliman,Elementary Drawing Classes.
Prof. T. W. Braldwood, Design, and Design as
applied to Manufactures.
The receipts 'of the School of Design in
1867 were 135,953; the expenditures, $5,562.
The museum and library, at the school build
ing on Northwest Penn Square, already
comprise many works of great value to
students. Lectures on various branches of
art are given
. frequently by different members
of the faculty. The pupils are taught draw
ing in all its varieties, figure painting, land
scape painting, lithography, pattern drawing
(for printed dress goods, wall-paper and car
pets), flower painting, architectural orna
menting, &c., &c. Physiology and anatomy,
in their relations to art, are also taught. The
school has already enabled many young
women to obtain a good living by the prac
tice of the arts it teaches, and while rejoic
ing at ,its past success, we feel justified in
hoping for still greater success in the future.
If anybody fancies that Petroleum V. Nasby
is a highly exaggerated picture of a certain
Phase of Southern society, he may gain some
enlightenment from the following extract
from a letter just received in this city from an
intelligent and devoted missionary now at
work in the dark places of Southwestern Vir
ginia:
"To give you an Idea of the Influences with
which I have to contbnd, I will give an instance.
Very recently I was endeavoring to organize a
school at a certain point, (in a church) when the
minister arose and opposed it. Among other
objections he urged the one that if a Sunday
School was started, the next thing would be a
Temperance Society! 'And,' said he, 4 1 can't
get liquor enough now! If I could get a drain every
time, after la caching, it would help my lungs!' "
There is just one more excellent reason
why we should elect Grant and . Colfax.
General Wade Hampton, having thought bet
ter of his resolution to inaugurate ano_ther
war, now declares that in the event of the
success of the Republican party,he will "pack
up his household goods and seek a more con
genial clime." Here is a beneficent result of
success upon which we had not calculated,
and we might now move on to victory ?Atli
the cheering reflection that we are to be rid of
at least one pestilential traitor, if it were not
that we cannot accept with implicit confi
dence the promise of a man who makes a
boast of his perjury and treason.
THE BOOK OF THE SEssoNs.—Miss Nilson,
from Boston, is now- in this city receiving Bull_
scriptions for a new quarteily which she is about

The New Torn Blaney Market.
;From the N. Y. Herald 4 of taday.l
Aucour 30.—The most noticeable feature ofthe
past week was the sharp rise in government seen
rides following the previously severe speculative
depression. We predicted daring the fall that it
would be followed by a sharp upward reaction,
and the advance thus far has been one and a half
to two, and a half per cent. from the lowest
prices touched, while the indications are that a
further considerable recovery yet awaits all the
issues of five-twenties. The latter are very firm
in Europe, as the advance of % in gold on Satur
day in London: against - an - improvement of
% In currency here on Friday sufficiently shows,
the price of gold having hardly varied in the in
terval. There is a movement going_forward on
te
an extensive scale looking - the exchange of
the bonds of 1862, which are almost entirely - bold •
abroad, for those of 1Q64,1865 and 1867, on ac
count of their supeller cheapness, and the fur.
tber eiTuritage rnat they have from two tO five
yetiB ringer - to run, and hence under this
process of exchange the old and the new
bonds will be likely toapproxiMate more
closely inlprice than they 'have hitherto done.
The street is largely "short" of bonds,the amount
being estimated at five millions at least, exclu
sive of immatured options ranging from thirty to
ninety days. Most of the latter were put out in
the midst of the temporary ,agitation .• of the
question, ere the five-twenties redeemable in gold
or greenbacks? but the probability is that those
who look forward.to any legislation which will
settle this question will be"dWppointed.
-Money was in very abundant supply all the
week, and the principal; dealers in government
atguldttea were enabled to borrow largely at
three tend three and a half per cent per annum,
although the general:bank rate was four...for
loans on call. The demand from the Stock Ex
clang° was only moderate, and the offerings of
eornmercial paper, both on city'and country an;
count, were light, while the best grade was I
quoted at 067 per cent, • The remittances of cartl
reecy westward were_amailht comparison with
those for the two previotts 'weeks, but the

to their statements published • yesterday, 56,100,-

received more than 13,100,000 incustocas duties
and only disbursed 1160,000 in coin in pay
ment of interest on the public debt, it follows
that nearly half of the increase in its balances was
derived from this source. Legal tender notes have
decreased $2,000,269 and the loans $3,645,055; but
it is very evident that this last is not owing to
any calling , in of loans on the part of the banks,
their supply of idle funds being still. largely'in
excess of the demand, and yesterday the amount
seeking employment at three per cent. was appa
rently as great as on any previous Saturday
during the summer.
The
feu Y. Worts
Wail.to.sair.l
Ace. 29.ure in street this week
is the strength and advance in "prices of the Go
vernment bond market, the whole list closing
from 1 to 134 per cent. higher than on last Satur
day. This has arisen from a more active demand
for investment, shipment to Europe, and specu
lation, which have developed the fact that the
'large shipments of our bonds to Europe—about
$50,000,000 since the month of June—have left
this market bare of 1862 a, and with only small
stocks of the other bonds afloat. It is estimated
that the total amount held here by the deal
ers, and in Philadelphia, does not exceed $l5,
000,000. There is a large uncovered short in
terest, and the deliveries are irregular in 18628
1864 e, 1865 s and the new bonds generally. Thin
scarcity of some bonds and limited amount of
;others available for dealings in the street may
',be accounted for from the extraordinary ease in
the money markets here and in Europe, and the
,absorption from accumulated 'profile which are
constantly finding their way into five-twenty
bonds from the high rate of interest they pay.
The European markets have responded'q tuckly
to the advance in the price of 1862 a here, al
though it was reported by telegram to be only
the result of a temporary scarcity. On Thurs
day the 1862 s were selling at 118%, and on
Friday, 114 Y. In London, on Thursday, the
price was 71c4, Friday,72, and this moming,72%;
being an advance in gold of % against the same
in currency here.
The foreign
exchange market is weak. Prime
bankers' sixty-day sterling bills are offered direct
at 107% to 109, and from second, hands at 108%.
The tendency of the market is downwards. The
recelpta of cotton are likely to be earlier than last
year, although the exports to Europe will be less
owing to the difference in the views as to price
of holders here and the buyers abroad.
The gold market is dull Strong operators are
standing aloof, owing to the dullness and down
ward tendency of the exchange market. The
shipments of bonds to Europe are continued, and
this , keeps, the supply of bills on the market
largely in excess of the demand. The disburse
ment of $5,000,000 tor, gold interest due by Go
vernment on September lst also has a depressing
influence. There is a large short interest in the
market which supports prices. The rates paid
for carrying were 1, 34,134„ 2 and 3 per cent. to
flat. After the ••board adjourned the lnotations
were 144% to 144%.
The Alaska, from Aspinwall, arrived with
$502,376 in the precious metals. The specie
shipments for the week were $492,031, and since
January 1. 664,156,631. Th 6 Sub-Treasury dis
bursed $165,000 in specie for interest during the
week. The receipts from customs were 83,106,-
000 for the week.
