'Zeolite mad Guerillas—Th e Death of.M.Oseby,
[grecial Co rresiandeneo of The Press.] „
HICADQUARTE* ARMY OP POTOMALis
Virginia, Sept, 4, 1863,
The progress of our arms before Charleston is
breathlessly-watched. We cannot have such inten
sified feelings on the subject' as those whose proed,
rebellious 'spirits haye been weighed'do ten by the
loss of "Vickiburg, and the prospective plunder Of
Pennsylvania. But ..the whole Army of the Poto - -
mac restin their arbor-covered tents, and wait, watch,
and wonder for the faleof that city. They seem to,
think Charleston must be ,taken ; before they will'
tight another battle. yicksbur,geabserbed us quite;
for many dais ; before the war, it was an obscure
town ; now it is memorable in history, because
'consecrated with blood. When - &gentleman from
'Charleston went to Europe, he never, came from the
United States.; but hie littleemil, that doted on the
sovereignty of a little State, caused him to say he
came from that little place, Charleston. Of the
:United States he knew comparatively little. There
are now mentors and monitors enough among them
to give quite a formidable idea to such men of the
sovereignty of tee United States. This, detraction:
• ,
of attention from one warm locality ton hotter one,:
is gratifying to the correspondent with the Army of
the Potomac. Like John leans/he, my mind often=-
times "gets tumbled .up and downe' because there
is no news, and it is disagreeable.to manufacture ar.
tides which will be surely pronounced bogus: Ns-,
tiomehave theie.petron saints, the lovely of the earth
have their_genii and their guardenreengeie, poets in=
voke the pluses, or cla:rabereup 'Pegasus, Ahe lover
breathes his vows to wilt* the soldier cheer's foe
Mars. Ali have' their patrons, who aniwer their
calls with the same alacrity Hercules did:the fretful
cries of the indolent wagoner. The correspondent
calls, and no one anowereth.
Everything is not eo quiet along our front now, as'
it has been for oome,,weeks. Picks:to, instead•of ex
changing compliments, papers, and coffee, frequent-'
ly fire into each other. Too often have I been called
upon to notice the perfidy of the rebel outposts. BY
their artfulwiles, they frequently induce our men to
forget they' are the , monsters who., have been
kind that they Might the bettor kill. But yesterday
a number of our reserve, belonging ee Gregg's come
mend, and who were stationed across the river, at
Sulphur Springs, went, as usual,. to water their
horses. In the same broo`k our men had often wa- -
tered their animals' with those of the rebels. - M'a y
times our foise was superior, and could easily have*
overpowered their foes. Never has a' Union picket
so dishonored himself, as, to take advantage off
his enemy 'when they are on %friendly terms:
When our squad reached the stream, and with
slacliened reins .the horses were drinking, a gruff
voice ordered the whole party to dismount and Bur: .
render. .Here was a cleverly-arranged , ambuscade.'
The sergeant in command of the - squad drew his'
pistol and sternly ordered. the men - to retain their
seats. Not one of them obeyed, and the brave fel- ,
low wheeled about and epurred.oft A: volley was
tiled after him, which caused his death. Such events
-are of daily occurrence, and are not without'their
meaning. They may desire no more .news to reach'
their, army from Charleston;or Bragg, till theyhave
revised the intelligence. Ournewspaperamust have
an incendiary effect among them. Along our entire'
front Orders have been given to- cease all exchange
of civilities and communications .between pickets.
Our men have had. multiplied instances of their
treachery, and should be constantly on their guard.
Yesterday, a scouting party sent out by Generel
Gregg was attacked by a large number' of rebels,'
near ..Amesviile. The 'captain of the party, with
thirty others, were killed, wounded, or Captured.
This ; unfortunate` occurrence being, of stich' recent
date, and having transpiredienumber.of miles from,
here, lam unable to learn whether. this was -'the
whole party, or if they inflicted muchalamage uPon
the enemy. Someentelligenee received - at' Pleasen
ton's-headquarters created a little. exeitementi and
consternation. It watenothing more or lees than the
disbanding of the corps organizatioreotethe.cavalry
belonging to the Army of the Potomae. .That G-en.
Pleasanton would ..be. placed :on - General Aleade's
staff, and the respective, cavalry,divislonis would re
perkto the commander-in-chief. Still, Pleasanton
.would have as much to do with theeavalry. depart
ment as before,sjust as General Ingalls, rho is upon
General aLeade , s Btaft, has.alniot everything to do
with the„Artillery. There were many who thought
the eficiency of.the-cavalry - would belforever im
paired; others-who:believed it madelnd difference,
only saving the expenee,of a large staff. =
Day before yesterday Generals Buford and NM-
Patrick. started on an expedition for the purpose Of
- .
recovering 'or destroying the tWo - gunboatebelo-ng
tog to the Potomac flotilla which were captured by
the rebels -on the Rappahannock. The officers of
the gunboats had been told of melancholy cases of
starvation, which was causing death to many of the
people who lived near the banks of the river. The
gunboats were .run ashore, and all the officers and
men were eager to relieve the distress' and suffering
of their fellow-creatures, even if they were rebels.
A large body of the enemy were near, in a place of
concealment. As soon as possible after the Satel
lite had touched the shore they began to swarm her
decks. Two gunboats were thus captured.
The cavalry. expedition,which is. probably acting
in conjunction with the Potomac flotilla, will un
-doubtedly•be successful. I think it scarcelys.Possi
ble to bring them off ; so they-will be Bunk. Gene
ral Kilpatrick sent word yesterday that he had
found the boats and was firing into them. He has
an excellent battery, with which he is certainly able
to destroy two small gunboats. We had very strong
rumors that Lee was crossing in heavy force. This
rumor is built upon the supposition of the river be
ing so low, as "to-prohtbit our gunboats from pa
trolling the stream. I know there are many who
give credence to the story, and the natives are eedu
lone in spreading it over the country. The whole
thing is very improbable. Lee has waited so long
for us to attack, that he grows weary of delay; He
would like to see General Bleades hand. A single
great disaster to an uniformly successful cominan-
der generally ends in a succesion of defeats and mis
fortunes, as crushing as those of Hannibal's. The
rebel Achilles has shown his vulnerable spot, and
it
: will go hard with him when we push our aff
vantage.
There is no doubt but guerilla -chieftain_ Moseby
is dead. I know he was badly wounded a short
time ago at Dranesville. The shots took effect in
the arm and lungs. I - can't call Bloseby a brave
man, any more than the genteel families of Vir
ginia would call him a gentleman who was a felon.
Most young people begin their career as criminals
by picking pockets, but our guerilla began with the
,highest crime. He murdered his school chum. For
this he spent twelve months in Charlottesville jail,
where he made the best, of his time by studying
law. Hewes not welcome, among the respectable
portion of the people, because he had been in j ail—not
because he was a murderer. He went to Kentucky
and married a very estimable and amiable young
lady, and, with his usual audacity, came to live and
practise bie prOfeseien in the very town where he
bad been imprisoned. Of course, he had little or)no
practice. When the rebellion broke out, he became
a private and worked his way up, White following
like his shadow, and always stepping into] the place
vacated by Moseby. '
At the time of hie death he had a major's com
mission. Lately, his men had never been mustered
in. Captain Page, the rebel conscription officer,
sent him word, that, if_he " didn , t have his men
mustered in, he would draft them." Moseby never
attacked our men unless he thought the, advantage
with him ; and his sneaking attack on our sutlers
makes him anything but a brave man in my eye.
They are obliged to sell all plunder to.the Confede
racy, but, as that is all the pay they get, they never
do anything of the kind. . B.

TORPEDOES IN THE STONO
-Some days since - the enemy made a systematic -
elleirt to blow-up and destroy the gunboats knd trans
ports in Stono Inlet by Means of. torpedoes. -Fortu
nately no serious darnage.was inflicted: upon any of
the vessels by these infernal _machines, of d estrus-,
tion, but the escape was quitb narrow enough.for_
comfort :One torpedo exploded. a little astern of
the Pawnee, and blew ;her launch, which -*Rs tow- -
ing,ast ell?, to fragments.. A- few _momenta.later a
tremendous explosion occurred on Bird Key, a few
rode below the Pawnee; occasioned by another tor
pedo sent down at the - same time. "Prod facts since'
developed, it is certain.that the rebelekent down on=
that- night at least, ten of these inventions of the
- devil, three or four of tvhich exploded, and four of
which were picked - up*. One ..drifted through
the fleet of transports ' and -up the Folly river„
and exploded under the bows of the mortar-schooner
O. P. Williams, but ,occasioned no damage. The
torpedoes are preciselx flke those.— have,..fohnd in
Light Rouse'dieek, -- artirgto off 'at - the slightest
cODCUSEIOI2. , The method adopted in sending them
down and securing results is rather ingenious. Tho
boat picked up in the Stono the day after the explo •
alone occurred was fitted up for torpedo business.
It bad a long and wide plank fastened across the
gunwales, upon which the torpedoes were placed.
From certain marks upon the plank it was evident
that ten of the machines had rested upon it. The
torpedoes are launched upon an ebb - tide, and seat
down in pails, connected by a rope fifty or sixty
feet long. On each of the machines a rudder is at
tacked—one fastened hard a-port, the- other hard
a:starboard. By this means the bows of the torpe
does have s tendency to move on divergent courses,
and the line is straightened out. As they float down
the tide the anchor chain of the vessel which is to
be destroyed catches the rope about in the middle,
and the torpedoes are borne down the current, to
the length of their cable, when they swing around
and strike the side of the vessel. The concussion
explodes them and the natural consequences attend
ing the explosion of eighty , pounds of powder un
der a vessel follow. They did not work in- the in
stance referred to, but they may yet do damage.
Precautions have been adopted to prevent any ac
tions damage to the vessels from further visits of
these devilish inventions of the enemy.

was progressing finely. Our troops are in fine spirits.
A reconnoitring force had gone to Lake's Bluff,
some distance above Duval's Bluff. There was a
small rebel force at that place, which made a show
of resistance, but were quickly dispersed by our
troops. The rebels lost several killed and wounded.
There was no loss on our side. .
A considerable force was sent from Duvall's Bluff
last Thursday, the 27th ult., which succeeded in cap

AN INSTANCE OF MERCANTILE INTEGRITY.—The
Boston Journal records the following : " About twen
ty years ago a young man, named ,Thomas rfardy,
of South Danvers; in this State, meeting with mis
fortune in business, determined to leave his native
town, and seek his fortune in ,the West, with the
firm resolve that, if Providence smiled upon his.
efforts, he would return and pay his debts to the ut
termost farthingr After struggling for a" long time
at- the West, with varied success; he proceeded to
California about six years ago, and there accumu
lated a handsome fortune. Having thus accom
plished his desires, he recently, returned to South
Danvers for the purpose of cancelling the claims of
his old creditors. This he did in. Cull, paying both
principal and interest, amounting to twenty-five
Thousand dollars. While doing business in South'
Danvers, he, bad a partner, whose share of the debts
of the firm he lias liquidated as well as' his own.
Not satisfied with this, he made a number of gene
rous gifts;-and, on Monday evening,- gave a splendid
. entertainment ,to his. old friends and assoolatei.

The correspondence opens with a letter from Lord
L3Fous to Earl Russell, dated Washiligton, May 20,=
1862, stating that he enclosed copies of President.
Lino-elate proclamation and treasury regulations,'
in virtue of which the ports -of Beaufort, Port

Then follows in the correspondence a second letter
from Lord Lyons to Earl Russell, dated Washing
ton, May 26th, in which he encloses an extract from
a despatch which he had received a day or two pre
viously from Mr. Bayley, Governor of the Bahama -
Islands, on the subject of a report Which prevailed
there that the customs authorities at New York had
determined to prevent or impede the exportation of
ordinary supplies from that city to the port of Nas
sau. Lord Lyons adds that be had directed her Ma
jestyes acting consul eV - New York to asoertain and
let him know as soon as possible whether there was
any foundation for such a report, and in hisfnext
despatch he transmits a copy of a letter written to
Mr. Bayley by Messrs. Adderley & Co., complaining
that a bond had been. exacted from their agent ..by
the customs authorities at New York, restricting the
disposal of a cargo of coal, shipped for Nassau. The
'Messrs. Adderley, while fully admitting the right of
the Government to make such customs, laws, and
regulations as they think fit, contend thateuch laws
and regulations should be of general application
and that Great Britain, being placed by internation,
al treaty on the footing of the most favored nations,
the'American Government had no right to single
out any , particular. British colony and make re.g,uls.-
lions applicable to that colony alone. The Circum
stances which led them to make these remarks are
etas ed in a letter to Mr. Bayley, dated Na Beall, New
Providence, May. 12th, 1882.
'Lord Lyons, in forwarding the letter to - Earl Rus
sell, encloses copies of an act of Congress, approved
on the 20th of iYlay, 1862,. conferring on the Secre
tary of the Treasuiy, extensive powers to impose re
at-fictions on trade, with a view to prevent supplies
being carried to the Southern States, and accomps=

pies of the instructions given by -the- Secre
tary of the Treasury to refuse clearances to ves

specified articles as well as to vessels believed
to be in fact bound to Confederate ports, whatever
might be their ostensible destination, or which hap
pened to be laden with merchandise of whatever
description, in cases in which there appeared to be
imminent danger of the cargoes coming- into the
possession of the insurgents.
Having transmitted this information, Lord Lyons
informs Earl Russell, in a despatch dated the Bth of
June, that he had received the report of Acting Con
an] Edwards, whom he had instructed to inquire in
to the truth of the statement brought, under hia no
tice by the Governor of the Bahamas, that the cue
toms authorities of New York had determined to
prevent the exportation of supplies to those islands.
Mr. Edwards, in the report mentioned by Lord
Lyons, states that the customs authorities at New
York had upon several occasions thrown serious im
pediments in the way of shipments of coal and or
- dinary merchandlise to Nassau, and had even in some
cases, where the goods were` already embarked, and
even cleared, refused to permit the vessel to go to sea
until the goods had been relanded.

consuls of the United States by Mr. Seward, with a

STUAET TO Inn. SILWAP.D.
SEPTEMBER, 1862.
The undersigned has received instructions from her
Britannic Majesty's Principal Secretary of State to ad
dress to the Secretary of State of. the United States a
further representation respecting the restrictions im
posed by the United States Government on trade between
New York and ports in the British West Indies. The
unaersigned is instructed to . say that, her Majesty's
Government consider the question to be' one of great
importance, and that, however desirous they may be
of making every allowance for the difficulties of the
position_ of the United States Government, it is im
possible for them to acquiesce in the system of inter;
ference with the legitimate trade of Great Britain which .
is now practised, by the United states authorities, such
interference "'being not only in contravention' of the
exieting_ treaties between Great --Britain and the
United Mates, but being, also contrary to ,the .estab
lblied principles of international law. It appears that
British vessels lawfully trading between New York and
the Bahamas are in some instances refaced clearances at
ew York, and, in others, after having been regularly,
cleared, with. full knowledge by the United States au
thorities .of the-articles onr board. are -detained"-.and
searuhed, and ate required either to relaud portions of
their cargoes or to give bonds that no part of , the cargo
- shall at any indefinite time be -need by the enemies of
the United States ; - - and- these Proceedings are, not
claimed to be prescribed by any general law or regula
tion of. commerce, but are avowed to be wholly dis
cretionary with the collector of the customs, to be, en
forced by him whensoever he shall entertaitithe ens
- licion and belief that the real destination of the cargo
. is mediately or immediately to some port in the posses-.
shot of the enem:es of the United States, or if he shall.
be satisfied that." there is imminent danger that the
goods, wares, and merchandise,- of whatsoever de
scription, laden .on-such vessels, will fall into the
possession 9r. under the control of the insur
gents," *de. The collector of the customs, in his
report of the 12th of June, states that ." in the ex
ercise of the discretion, devolved upon him as an
officer of the overnmefft of, a sovereign peopte, he had
prohibited the shipment cd coal and dry goods and shoes,
and quinine and other drugs, and tinware and munitions
of war, and sundry.other articles, to iiaseau and the West
Indies, and to t ther foreign ports,when lie had reason to
euerect that they were intended by individual enterprise
or the special contracts of British subjects to contribu e.
cirectly to the welfare of the enemies of the United
Sta es," The undersigned is instructed to state that her
Majesty's' Government cannot call to mind any prin-,
ciple ot j
international jurisprudence. nor any precedent
approved by international law, to justify such interfer
es ce with the trade of neutrals. The undersigned would:
submit to the consideration of the, Cabinet of Wash
ington that trade between Groat Britain and the United
States, at least as to ports and places in the undisturbed'
poseession of the United Iffiates, is - not in any degree
effected by the state of war in which the United States
ere engaged; and moreover, that trade between Great
Britain and an enemy - of the'-United States, the former ,
preserving a strict neutrality or indifference between the
bell/germ t parties, can be - affected only in the manner.
- and to the extent preictibed by the".international law of
blockade, The 'United States Government will ad--
mit that shipments similar to theoe now subjected
to interference, from New' York to .Nassau and 'other-
British ports,- if -made •in time of-peace, could not be
,prohibited with• ut giving manifest -cause of-just Gem-,
plaint to Great Britain:especially while such shipments
remain open to other nations--not having , with the
United States treaties of -a more favorable nature. It
follows that. to prohibit such shipments to'Britleh sub-'
jects while permitting them' to the subjects 'of other rut-,

cannot expect that Great Britain should allow British
trade with her own colonies, by way of the United
Stake, or the trade bet Ween her own colonies and the
United States, to be fettered hY - rostrictions and condi

States and Great Britain, and repugnant to interna
tional law. Ber Majesty's Goyernment Expect, there

MR. SEWARD TO LORD LYONS.
TIF:FARTIN TBNT OF STATE, WAEIIINGTON, Jan 9, 1863
. .
The undersigned, Secretary of State of the United
States. has submitted to the President the copy which
was delivered by Lord Lyons to the undersigned of the
despatch of Earl Russell to Lorda.yons, tinder the date
of December 17, 1562, and 'which contains a review of
the note Which -was addressed by the undersigned to
the Ron. William Stuart, &c.„ on the 3d day of October
Earl Russell continues a discussion which was opened
by Mr, Stuart, concerning certain proceedings of the col
lector of customs at New York which were said to affect
British trade through that port with the Bahamas
The undersigned finds no occasion for maintaining, so
broad a proposition as that which is in some sort attri
buted to him by Earl Russell. namely. that no act what
ever done within the territory of the United States, and.
authorized by Congress, can be inconsistent with the en
gagements contained in the treaty between the two
countries which was concluded: in the year 1511
The undersigned has intended simply to insist that
Congress may. without violating that treaty. direct
within the jurisdiction of the Coiled States any modi
fication of commercial- intercourse necessary in - a
state of civil war, which, not being in violation of the
law of nations, is essential to the public safety, provided
that it imposes no prohibition upon the subject, of Great
Britain which is not equally imposed upon the sab meta
et all foreign Powers- and upon citizens of the United
States.
The - undersigned is happy to agree with Earl Russell
that Uncross could not, consistently with the treaty,
enact a law which should- prohi any trade with the
Bahamas, unless her Majesty would. engage to prohibit
and prevent all trade between the - Bahamas and the
confederate t totes. But. the undersigned does not find
in the despatch of Earl Russel any satisfactory demon
et Mimi that what has been done at the custom house of
New York was the use of the machinery of an act passed
in vague and general terms for practically the same pnr
pr se, and therefore, in truth, the same thing
The undersigned also fully admits the principle for
which Earl Russell contends, that the laws and statutes
to which the trade under the treaty is to be subject must
be definite laws and definite statutes, which foreigners
can understand and observe as practical rules for their
government while within the United States territory;
not law, so called. which authorizes subordinate officers
of the Government to give or withhold at their discretion
those rights which the United Slates have engaged by
the treaty to secure to British agljects, But the under
signea must again insist that the act of Congress which
I as elicited the criticism of Earl Russell is in all respects
just Fuel, a definite statute as the principle thus ac
knowledged contemplates. • -The obj act of the statute is to
authorize the Collector to refuse permits for merchandise
which may be designed to supply insurgents in arms. or
of which there may be a danger that tbey will fall into
the bands of the insurgents. The existence of design in
the first of these cases, and the "existence of imminent
danger in the other, are facts which must frequently, if
not alwavh, be determined by an examination of circum
stances. that examination and determination most be
mad e by some agent of the Government, and it seems to
the undersigned that there is no more vagueness in the
language by 'which the power to make them is conferred
upon the Collector of Customs than there is in the lan
gnage of a statute which directs a magistrate to arrest
offenders. or prevent apprehended crimes,' when he is
convinced on satisfactory grounds that crimes have been
perpstrated or proposed. For the exercise of the proper
! caution aid justice in - the case the subordinate officer is
resbonsibre to the Government, and the Government it
self is responsible to allparties concerned.
A desire t c guard against misapprehension, rather than
any bearing of the statement - upon the subject under dis
cussion, requires that tire undersigned shall express his
dissent from the, position asaumed by Earl Russell—
n emelt-, that the present case is not one of the prohibi
tion of any article of the growth. produce, or manufac
ture of the United States. or of her Britannic Majesty's
territori.s in Europe; 'within they meaning of the third
clause of the second section of the treaty of 1815. Upon
aaareful re-examination of the' treaty, the undersigned
rinds no words therein which seem to confine the opera
-
lion of that clause to general prohibitions of the exporta
tion of specified articles, and exclude a prohibition of
particular articles not generally prohibited' by particular
shippers on particular occasions, unless certain excep
tional conditions, not required by the law in other cases,
are complied with. the comprehensive brevity with
which the tie aty is expressed seems to the undersigned
to sender it proper to give a general application of the
terms of this Manse to legal. prohibitions of whatever
kind,•upon whatsoever cause, or nnder Whatsoever cir
cumstances they 1119.9 he_m a de. -
The undersigned must again declare that he is unable
to , fird in the 1. nears' hich this discussion has produced,
y evidence whatever that the act of Congress has bean
.adminiatered so as to apply yid:oll,ly, or even discri
'rninatingly; against Great Britain. It does not certainly
appear that none but British ethiphnente In contravention
of the act have been prevented by the collector at Ne w
York If such; however, should be the case, the proper
inference to be drawn from it-would seem to ha t net no
such shipments by anyperson; other titan British sub •
jecte had been atttiiipted
The undersigned is obliged to confess -that he labors
under the same difficulty now that embarrassed .him at •
the earlier stages of this disc nesion, as to the connection
which Earl Beaten has attempted to establish between
these principles and the blockade.. The undersigned
must still insist that the act of Congress. and the pro
ceedings which have Men taken under it, have had. re
ference to the preventing of supplies, through the, ports
of this country. to' insurgents in arms against its autho
rity - by refusing permission to all classes of persons
within their, jurisdiction,, where. titers was a design to
- convey such supplies, or imminent danger that they
, would fall into the bands of the insargents.
. • In conclusion, while the opinions which Earl Russell
has expressed upon the transactions 'which have been
reviewed are not admitted to'have sufficient foundation,
the undersigned has great pleasure in assuring the Bd.-

• That an immediate unconditional

THREE CENTS.
more harm than good, we are ready to admit, and
we are equally sure that a well•cared-for slave in
the South is better off than a free colored citizen of
the North. But of one thing we are certain, and it
is this, that the extinction of slavery is but a ques
tion of time, and that if the Confederate States
would win the sympathy of the world they must
elaborate some plan for the gradual amelioration
and ultimate suppression of that greatest blot upon
their eivilization. The heroic resistance to the do
ruination of the North has won the admiration of
the world, but slavery is a canker that will eat out
the vitality of the most flourishing State on earth.
A European Coalition on the MexiCan
Question.
[Paris Corresnondose N. Y. Three.)
Thus, the progfamme was disclosed a few days too
soon, and the French 'Government became fatally
committed to the Empire policy. What, then, is the
next heat thing to be done? I will tell you. France
is going to manoeuvre in such a way by bargain 4 on colla
teral, questions as to bring about a European coalition
against the United States on this Mexican question. So
that, if the United States should eventually recoil
eolidate leer power, and attempt an enforcement of
the Monroe doctrine in Mexico, France would be
able to bring 'other Powers with her into the war
that would ensue.
The Grand Duke Maximilian has accepted the
throne; but only on the condition that a guarantee
of stability can be offered him, and what else than
an alliance against the United States can afford the
shadow of such a guarantee ? The Government
journals openly declare that this object must be at,
tainted; and the argument they use is no .longer the
old one of a reconstitution and strengthening or the
Latin races, for that argument only interests one of
the nations they hope to drag into the -alliance ; nor
that other argument of a ,disinterested mission of
civilization ; but they put the necessity of this eGall
lion upon the broad ground of an equilibrium of formal
—that old question for which ; European nations
have always been ready enough to fight on their
own conttnent, and which France hopes now to ex
tend to the continent of America. When again
United, if such should be the result of the present
war, they say the United States will be too large,
too preponderating, too dangerous to the general
equilibrium ; and thus France hopes. t ]at by rais

power," to gain in aid of the barrier she is establish
ing against the United Stites IVfexieo. It would
probably be easy for the Government at Washing

A REMARKABLE VETERAIL—The St. Louis Re-'

regular old veteran of a warrior and patriot. Ilia
name is John T. 0. DlcUatirey. He was raised in
Knoxville, Tennessee, is seventy-three years old;
and has had fifteen sons and three daughters.
Eleven eons were in the Union army until the siege
of-Vickaburg, where four of them were killed. The
old man himself enlisted in the 10th Illinois at
Fayetteville, Ark.; over a year ago, arid was lately
discharged. He served eight months in the Florida
war, twelve months under Gen. Jackson, thirty-two
months in the Mexican war, and twelve months in
the present war. He has three brothers and three
etepeons now in the Union army. We tell the tale
as he, with every semblance of perfect truth, told it
to tie."
Air ENLIGHTENED Moll'Auca.—Two great quest-.
Dons now before the world are the eh aractermf Jeff
Davis and his associates, and the character of the'
King of Dahomey. All' are slave-traders, and' all
are defended with equal ability in the London Times.
That journal, which has become the zealous sup
porter of slavery, has a correspondent in Africa,
who does for his Majesty of Dahomey, .what Dr.
Mackay in this city does for the rebel chiefs. The
two correspondents speak in terms: of high praise
of their patrons. "An African" speaks of the
Ring. of Dahomey in just such glowing terms as have
been used of Jeff Davis,loyd. Yancey, & Co.; by
other correspondents,..the Times. _He says the
king is a "man of suparkir intellect,-endowed with
an extraordinary capacity for: governing." Re
ceiving the adulation of his subjects, he ; maintains
an extraordinary "modesty Of depo'rtmeht and equa
nimity in language." Ais.polide, laws and finances
are the admiration of "An African:" He is
served • " - more `from - love - than fear." : To
strangers he is hospitable, to his subjects gene
rous. He is frugal; temperate, and self-restrained.
As for the human sacrifices, the "African " speaks
of them just as the. Tinos speaks of human slavery.
Tie regards thennta " a kind of sacrament." "'They

tion as that which induces. us to. bend :the knee in

tears was in Lancaster, Ky., a ;chubby young A.nglo-
African, answering to the name of ' , Tommy," came
into camp and-desired to enter the eervice of some
one of 'Uncle Sam's officers, and thus escape another
service that was irksome and unremunerative, be.
eide 'disloyal. One of the captains of the
:12th received the fugitive as a body servant, and in
that capacity the modest, quiet Tommy_accompanied
the 12th in its campaigning through -the 1, dark and
bloody ground" of Boone and Garrard, and on its
return to Providence, dwelling in the captain's can
vas palace, and winning many pleatiant words for
good behavior. - Tommy followed the regiment
through the shouting crowds that lined the sidewalks
of Market Square and Westminster, and!politely gave
the military salute whenever the neat uniform and
trim figure received the specialcommendation of the
colored belles on the curbstone. When the ,regi- -
inept was dismissed, the captain surrendered Tommy
to the lieutenant, and the hemp plantati.on was ex
changed for a home by the sounding sea. There the
refinements of civilized life were too much' for
Tommy, and the captain's body servant proved to
be a veritable daughter of the regiment, a girl of
lees-than twenty summers, who had been able in
camp and on the march so successfully to conceal
her sex in the guise of a boy that the captain at
whose feet she slept had - no suspicion that he was
harboring a sable ' woman and a sister," determined
on achieving liberty even at the expense of a tem
porary renunciation of red bandannas and calico.
Tommy was brought back to this city in the dress
appropriate to‘ her sex, and a place has been pro
cured lor her in the country. The officers no wre
, collect that Tommy wouldn't ride horseback, and
declined the most tempting propositions to go- a
swimming; and even the captain discovers several
interesting periods where the laugh comes in. When
the 12th veterans again take the field, the captain -
will hardly , enlist a body servant without the pre
liminary examinations of the surgeon.—Proublence

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL,
THE 'MONEY MARKET.
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 5, 1863
There was a decided reaction to-day in the move
ments of gold and stocks. Gold opened at 132%,
fell off to 130, and closed at - 1307 t V131; market rather
inactive. The scare is over, and matters are falling
into the old channels again. Stocks are reviving
strongly, although there are a considerable number
of sellers still in the market, Certain operators of
New York who may be denominated "the shrewd,"
deserve the credit of creating all the alarm, but their
x sign is over and the public feels easy again.
The condition of the money market is much the
same as yesterday, holders of_weaker class of Se
curities finding some difficulty in getting !loans ; an
extra figure, however, generally brought out the
neceswy funds.
Government securities have remained firm while
everything else on the list suffered. 1881 s are held
107; the seven-thirties, at 10634e0t 167; new one-year cer
tificates are In demand at 90;:a99%. The subscriP
tions to the National five-twenties were checked for
a day:r two, but are again taken freely.
The stock market opened quite - strong this morn
ing; and prices generally improved. Reading opened
at 5734, but closed, at 57, an advance of 1 on yester
day's closing figure. Huntingdon and Broad Top
sold at 21. Arch-street Passenger sold at 23. Spruce
and Pine at 15. Second and Third at 80. Seven
teenth and Nineteenth at 123.4. Susquehanna Canal
rose to FIX. Morris preferred sold at 135. Lehigh
scrip at 44. K. Wyoming Valley rose to 56. Schuyl
kill Navigation preferred rose to 24%. The market
closed rather stronger, prices tending upwards.

The New York Evening Post di - Saturday says:
The new loan is now regarded in Wall street as
likely to develop ease rather than stringency in the
loanmarket, and the panic caused by,the pending
negotiations has therefore for the present subsided.
A coneidetable number of new buyers have made
their appearance, and those who on Tuesday ,sold
out their stocks at high quotations are how buying
them in again. These two causes have sustained
the stock market and given an upward tendency to
prices, notwithstanding the necessities of some of
the weak operators have forced out a singularly
large proportion of cash stock.
The loan market:is active at 6@7 per cent. There
is no stlingerioy whatever, and on good securities
no difficulty is reptirted in obtaining all the loans
required, as an accumulating abundance of capital
is pouring into this city and the other great finan
cial centres of the country, seeking permanent or
temporary investment.
