FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
THE MONEY MARKET.
Fnn.ADßi.rnu, March 14,1863.
The stock market continues dnll, with a limited amount
OF transactions. Pennsylvania Fivog advanced to 85, a
gain of #» City Steed firm at 07 # for the new issue,
and 91# for the old issue; Morris Canal preferred ad*
vanced to 112 ; Catawissa Railroad gained #, selliog at
7#; Rending Railroad shares were dull at 21# ; Pennsyl
vania Railroad shares firm at 46; Camden and Amboy
Railroad at 123, and Harrisburg Railroad at 53#, Little
eras done with fancy stoc&s, and hank stocks and passen
ger* railway shares were firmly held without activity.
The noney market is without material change.
Pete won V Counterfeit Detector* for March 15th, ia
issued tbta afternoon with its usual fall reports of all new
and old frauds* alterations and counterfeits, reports of
stock sales, prices current, and other valuable informa
tion indispensable to the counting-room and the store
counter.
The various manufacturing interests of the city are
much exercised in relation to the tax hill now before
Congtegß. The attempts of the Committee of SVaya and
Hearts to tax all articles of manufacture are believed to
be exceedingly unfortunate and unequal, and a rcmon
atrnnce from almost every branch of manufacturing in
ierest will bo sent in to Congress. The proper way to tax
Tnanutaciures, it appears to us, if they must ho taxed at
all, is to make every manufacturer pay ft percentage of
tax upon his grots sales, leaving it to him to app rtiou
the amount upon fho articles of bis produ uion accord
-sng to his own judgment and knowledge of their ability
•to bear the burden. This would not only simplify the
•Assessment and collection of the tax, but would call to
the aid of the Government all the practical kuowtedge of
the manufacturers respecting the markets for their goods,
their relative values, and the least nbjectimmblo mode of
•collection from consumers, who always finally have to
isa? pnch taxes.

CITY ITEMS.
fii’RtSG Mimnkry Gotos Eui'Oaicjt The
few britbt. an any days of the present week have imparted
T spring touches to our city millinery establish-
Our rata l merchants in this department are
getting up their stocks, and, in consequent, the jobbing
iflouses present An air of aeilv'ty. Am-.»g the miter, we
oan apeak in high terms of the popular old house of
Messrs. Kennedy & Bro., No. 729 Chestnut street. The
etock of these gentlemen, which is mainly of their own
importation, is now very complete in all its departments. In
♦hat of FeAlliMtt Aiid French Flowers, their stock hu3 long
• been considered pre-eminent, and, judging from their pre
geni magnificent display of these articles,they have this sea
son faiii/ surpassed themselves. In addition to these,
ihey Jiove also, this season, added one of the finest and
*UA6t e*t£bfilve stocks of straw goods in this city. Retail
d-a'.erf, in making their purchases, we are sure, will find
it greaily to their advantage to examine this stock; espe
cially ae they l*uy their goods for cash , and are therefore
enabled to *eU*at nnutcaUy low prices.

the peculiarity- of always keeping the choicest quality of

heat vinos and malt liquors. His chicken terra*
rlna, and oysters, cooked in every style, have become fa
-vorites with our best families, as he fills orders for all
articles in-tho host style, at the shortest notice.
The advantages op using Mr. A. L. Van-

ry-s=» THE GREATEST LIVING HUMOR-
IlOf IST.—The following article, from the Xow York
Clipper, of the pie tent week, is to the earn
est klt&hlioh of every loyal citizen of PMlaiitlpUiU, It IS
a question worthy of consideration whether our theatres
are to become hot-beds for the nourishment of the ene
mies of our country :
The city of Philadelphia is noted for the patriotism of
its citizens, tor their deep devotion to the cau<?e of the
UuiODj and for tliPir intense hatred of everything that
savors of treason and rebellion. A Secession showman,
or rebel actor, may succeed in running the gauntlet of a
New York audience, but in Philadelphia, when the evi
dences of a man's Secession proclivities are brought to
public notice, the case is far different. They will not
tolerate any man, be he showman, acton or nor other
cliurncUu*—who depends upon put>lic patronage for sup
port— that ja in the least tainted with treason ; aod our
surprise was great when we learned, last week, that Ban
Bice bad been permitted to appear in public In that city.
Vo recur to this unpleasant subject, because Dan ltice,
on the 3d lust., denied that he bad aided the cause Of Se
cession while in the South} and professed to b &how »
Union man. He denied the statement made in this, and
other loyal papers, concerning his Secession proclivities,
and partially deceived those who listened to him.
There is no mistake that Rice has been playing the
double, and as he has seen proper to open the subject
anew, and endeavor to creftte ft wrong impression. we
Leg to &»y a few words in our own defence in regard to
the Secession showman. In the South this man was a
Secessionist, and so continued until he reached those
places where the good old “Stars and Stripes” still
floated in the breeze; and then he became a Union mao (1)
This is the showman now insulting, by his pregeuee, the
patriorie inhabitants of a staunch and loyal city. A
man, who wag with Rice in New Orleans, wrote to us
upon the subject of the showm&u’s Secession principles,
and we published the tetter at the time. An extract
from it will be sufficient to conviuce our Union-loving
friends that Rice had a face for the South and another
for the North. Says the writer—“ While Rice's show
Ytftßiu Kevi Orleans, Dan was organizing a company
called Ban Biceps Z-mavee, and when he, the employe,
refused to sinn the roll on the ground that he was a
Northern man. be was told that the sooner he went North
the better it would be for him.*’
A*>ther person, while in New Orleans, says that one
night, while the company were giving a performance, a
li&tof the difl'trent members of the Varieties Theatre
St cession Company was handed in for the showmen to
sign; but, unfortunately for them, but one man signed.
Tht next day. Mr. Bice Vi ought they had- better get up a
company cm their own hook. A meeting was held, and
epetches made by Ban Rice ami anothfr, stating the ob
ject of the meeting, with an occasional Southern senti
ment. ltVfiul utloiis were drawn up and passed, and.it
was agmdtoform a company to be known as Dan
Rjce'e Zouaves; that they should tender their sendees to
the State of Louisiana, to be in readiness any moment
tofightfor the Southern Confederacy ; it went on to say.
bow the slave Stales had been abused, etc. All signed,
we are §orry to learn, but Charley Noyes and Fred. A.
Jones, who were frequently talked with on the subject,
but who couldn’t see it.
It is further said that Mr. Bice had copies of the pro
ceedings published and' distributed along the route,
ltice's SecesfiioniKn became known in the North, and
when he arrived here, to avert the storm that thnateiiml
to overw helm him, he mado Union speech©*, as he had
made rebel speeches in the South. One of thoso hypo
critical ULion liarrangncß was published in Cincinnati,
and reached New Orleans; iu commenting upon which
the N. 0. Crescent said: “Dan talked quite different
here lust winter; but .never mind.” Rice was loolcad
upon as a strong Secession man while he was in New
Orleans, and his change of tactics to suit circumstances
called forth the following paragraph, which we copy from
the New Orleans of May 20th, 1861: «A Ouam-
Piu'x Clown.—Dun Rico, who was famous here last
winter for two thiugs—his much talk iu the ring about
hia interne &QuthGrni& , tti ami bathed up thk Nnitvu
j-H-.SLRS, aid hia sardonic l'un on bis debts—is cutting up
all sorts of Republican capors in the West. There is a
list in this city of minute men—signed by Dan Bice and
bis company —to defend the South to the death. In fact,
so exceedingly patriotic was he that a meeting was hold
on his beat, at which he made a flaming Secession speech
to his men. It will be a long time ere this renowned
harlequin will make his appearance in this city agaiu.”
The italics, etc., are oura. Here we have evidence
from New Orleans papers, and also from some of Rice’s
own men, who could not be swerved from the path of
rectitude or horor to join Bice's Secession company, or
ganized to defend the South to Wllfit IDOT6
evidence is I the citizens ef Philadelphia
countenance such a man any longer I . Will they con
tinue to encourage this showman, wbo publicly boasted
of his hatred cf the Northerners ? and organized a volun
teer company to resist the administration of the laws of
tto United t tatce Government's \\"e much mistake the
character of the people of Philadelphia if they suffer this
two-faced clown to insult them by his presence again.
They have now had placed before them a few' fasts
teaching his Seceesiou principles; they should be suffi
cient to warrant his dttniissal at once. Those who are
performing with this 44 humorist ” owe it to th nisclvos
to show a cltap Vill of health Birds of a feathap, the*
B ay, iiock together. Mr. Melville, the Australian rider,
has received nothing but kitulnoss at the bauds of the
Nottherners; so, too, Zoyara, and others in Rico’s show,
lhtir continuance in the concern will not benefit them.
If they are good Unu-n people, as we trust they are, they
will see the necessity of cutting afoof from a limn who
openly avovs l»is hatred of Northerners. Rice.weun
