REBEL DESERTERS—ritoattioss_oa THE OANA.L AT
DUTCH CAP.—WORK OF THE COLORED THOOPS.
(Special Correspondence of The Press.)
. DEEP BOTTOM, ya., Sept. 9,188.
Lark evening we were favored with one of• those
cool, chilling rains which herald the approach of
bracing weather. This morning we are in the
enjoyment of an invigorating 'climate, feeling con•
.
siderably refreshed by a comfortable night's rest. •
Blankets were indeed serviceable and appreciated
last evening. Any improvement on the present'
State of the weather, tending towards zero, will sug- •
gest the propriety of the troops making themselves
as comfortable as possible.,ivhile in the field. In a
short time we expect to be in Petersburg or Rich
mond, or both—certainly by the first of January,
whore, for the first - time, the grand emancipation
proclamation of freedom will be commemorated in
these strongholds of the enemy.
We have the pleasure of greeting many of the
prodigal sons of Father Abraham, who, having re
pented, are. returning honorably to worship' at the'
shrine of their former devotion. Several came in
yesterday, and were surprised at the kind manner
in which they were received and treated. Knowing
the exhausted state of the enemy's commissariat, e
good meal was prepared, to which they did ample,
justice. On the Cup of coffee 'alone, one of them
declared that he could travel- fiftymiles. That drink:
is quite a luxury in the South at present,'and its'.
delicious taste awakened no doubt former • reminiicr
cences which smote • their guilty consciences, anti
called to their remembrance how ranch- Suffering;
they had entailed upon themselves by deserting the
flag of their fathers. These deserters affirm that it"
is the impression in the rebel army that all who
come over to our hues will be unfriendly dealt with;
and forced to perform military service, and that-if
the truth could be circulated it would soon be de
plated. The light, it is to be hoped, will soon dawn
upon their darkened minds, and that they will a&
cept the proffered mercy of General Grant before it
,is too late.
The canal at Dutch Gap, by which Gen. Butler
hopes to avoid some seven or eight miles of the
James river, and the .obstructions placed there,
grandly progressing to a satisfactory completion::
To the labors of the colored troops, who, amid the'
showers of shot and shell, are industriously prosek'
. outing this great, enterprise, will. be ascribed the
glory of its accomplishment. Though batteries,
forts, and'a ram are continually hurling their mes
sengers of death to interrupt the work, ah'd drive
them off, our black troops, who have become season;
ed to this kind of exercise, which they regard as
aptirt, continue on in their operations as cheerfully
as if nothing was happening. Yesterday I' saw a
shell explode in the camp of the 6th (Penna.) U. S.,
C. T., and expected to see some uneasiness manifest
at the close proximity of these ugly customers, but
was surprised to observe no more commotion than
if the occurrence had been one.of the moat Ordinary
circumstances. It will be gratifying to the people
of Pennsylvania to learn that this gallant regiment,
raised near Philadelphia, Is doing a service, under
trying circumstances, In connection with others
equally as brave, that commends it to the considera
tion of the country. That colored troops should be
selected to perform such an arduous duty, exposed
as they are to the raking fire. of the-enemy from
several batteries, is an evidence of their high
standard in the estimation' of their military chief
tain.
This canal, constructed for some purpose best
known to the Commander.in-chief, will shortly be
completed, when: the colored troops, who have
labored so faithfully for its execution, will be ready .
to respond to "Forward !" whenever it may be
passed along the line. Ronnriv.
CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN GENERALS LEE AND
FORREST AND GENERAL WASHBURN ON TAB
TREATMENT OP' PRISONERS, NEGRO TROOPS, ETC.
-Trim MASSACRES AT PORT PILLOW AND BRYLE'S
CROSS GOADS-TITS BLACK PLAG.
Enclosed I forward you a long correspondence
between General Washburn and . the rebel Generals
Lee and Forrest as to how they regard colored per
sons captured In the uniform of the United States
Government. The correspondence is interesting,`
and should be read as an evidence of Southern bar
barism and inhumanity, coupled with provarloatiOn
to shrink from the consequences which theirinfamy
has entailed upon them. The: rebels can raise the'
black flag as soon as they please in reference to
coloied troops, by whom they will be met with a
corresponding determination. They ask neither,
favors nor cpiarteis from theM, and are willing ttr
meet them In whatever manner they proaose . te . hghk
Ihem—" only let theaebs comemlong." •
The correspondence, as published in 11111 in the
Richreond •Sentinel, is very, 'Ong. It opens with a
letter to General Washburn by the butcher For
asserting his civilized character, and asking if
captured rebels ire to be treated as prisoners of
war, and proposing an exchange of wounied officers
and men of Sturgis' command. A letter, dated
June 17th, froin Washburn to Lee, declares. that
if it is intended to raise the black flag, the black
troops will cheerfully accept the issue. "Up to this
time no troops have fought more gallantly, and none
have conducted themselves with greater propriety."
In reply to General Forrest, General Washburn
does not accept his arrogation of being "civilized,"
but receives with satisfaction the intimation " that
the recent slaughter of colored troops at the battle
of Tishimingo Creek resulted rather from the des
peration from which they fought than a predetermi
nation to.give them no quarter"—(a curious conies•
sion from the chivalry !) Following this General
lArashburn directs his attention to the murder of
lies'or Bradford :
"Among the prisoners captured at Port Pillow
was Major Bradford, who had charge of the fort .
after the fall of Major Booth. After being taken:
prisoner, he was started with the prisoners, in charge
of Colonel Duckworth,•. for Jackson. At Browns
ville they rested over night.
" The following morning two companies were de
tailed by Colonel Duckworth to proceed to Jackson
with the prisoners. After they had started and
proceeded a very short distance, five .soldiers were
recalled by Colonel Duckworth, and were conferred
with by him.
"They then rejoined the column, and after pro
ceeding about live miles from Brownsville, the
column was halted, and Major Bradford taken about
fifty yards from the roadside .and deliberately shot
by the five men who had, been recalled by Colonel
Duckworth, and the body left unburied upon the
ground where it fell. He now lies buried near the
spot, and if you desire yen can easily satisfy your
self of the truth of what I.assert."
The following letter of Forrest is, in the light of
facts well known to our military authorities, a blast
.
tering and clumsy attempt to shuffle off the charges
against him. General Lee's letter, it will be soon,
labors, to palliate rather than mums°. But, onthe
whole, it is very evident that the Southern authori
ties do not wish to rest under the odium of the 11114-
man massacres in the West:
GENERAL FORREST• TO GEMtRAL IVASHEURIL
' HEADCIRARTERS FORREST'S CAVALRY,
• . • IN TEE FIELD, June 28, 18st.
Major General C. C. Washburn:Commanding U. S.
Forces, Memphis, Tenn,:
GENERAI , t Your communication of Irhe 19th inst..
is received, in which you say you are left "in doubt
as to the course the Confederate Government in
tends to pursue in regard to colored troops."
My Government is in possession of all the facts.a,s
regards my official conduct and the operations of
my command since I entered the service, and if you
desire a proper- discussion and decision, I refer-you.
again to the President of the Confederate States.
- I would not have you understand, however, that,
in a matter of so much importance, .I am indisposed
to place at your command and disposal any foots
desired, when applied for in a manner becoming an
officer holding your rank and position, for it is cer
tainly desirable , to every one occupying a, public
position to be placed right before the world, and
there has been no time since the capture of Fort
Pillow that I would not have furnished all the facts
connected with its capture, had they been properly
applied for. But now the matter rests
_withthe two
,Governments.
I have, however, for your information, enclosed
you copies of the official correspondence between
the commanding (Aileen at Fort Pillow and myself.
Also, copies of a statement of Captain Young, the
senior tifieer of that garrison, together with (suffi
cient) extracts from a report of the affair, by my A.
D. C., Captain Charles W. Anderson, which I ap•
prove and endorse as correct. '- -
As to the death of Major Bradford, I knew nothing!
of it until eight or ten days after it is said to have
occurred. On the 13th (the day after the capture of
Fort Pillow) I went to Jackson, and the report I had
of the affair was this: Major Bradford was, with
other officers, sent to the headnuarters of Colonel
McCullock, and all the prisoners were in charge of
one of McCullock's regiments, Bradford requested
the privilege of attending the burial of his brother,
which was granted; he giving his parole to return.
Instead of returning he changed his clothing and
started for Memphis. Some of my men were hunt
ing deserters, and came on Bradford just as he had_
landed on the south side of the Hatchie, and . . at.
rested hips, When arrested lie claimed to be a Con
federate soldier, belonging to Bragg's army ; that he
bad been home on furlough, and was then on ids
way to join his command. As he could show.no pa
pers, he was believed to be a deserter, and was.taken
to Covington, and not until he was recognized and
spoken to by the citizens did the guard know that
be was Bradford. He was sent to Col. Duckworth,
or tahek by him to Brownsville. Ail of Chalmers'
command went south from Brownsville via La
grange ; and as all the other prisoners had been gone
some time ago, and there was no chance for them to
eatch up and place Bradford with them, he was
ordered by Col. Duckworth or Gen. Chalmers to
be sent to me at Jackson.
I knew nothing of the matter until eight or ten
days afterwards, when cheard that his body was
found near Brownsville. I - understand that he at
'-tempted to escape and was shot.
It he was improperly killed, nothing would afford
•VW more pleasure than to punish the perpetrators
to the full extent of the law ; and to show you how
• I regard such transactions, I can refer you to. my.
demand upon Major General Hurlbut (no doubt
upon tile in your office), for the delivery to the Con
federate authorities of Col. Fielding Hurst and
others of his regiment, who deliberately took, out
and killed seven Confederate soldiers, one of whom
they left to die after cutting off his tongue, punch
ing out his eyes, splitting his mouth on each side, to
his ears. I have, mentioned and given you these
facts in order that you may have no further. excuse
or apology for referring to these matters in connec
tion with myself, and evince to you my determina
tion to do all in my power to avoid the responsibili
ty of causing the adoption of the polioy_ which you
seem determined to press.
The. negroes have Sour sympathy, and, so far as
consistent with • safety, we will spare theni at the
expense of those who are alone responsible for the
inauguration of a worse than savage warfare.
Now, in conclusion, I demand a plain, unqualified
answer to two questions, and then I have done with
further correspondence with you on this subject.
This matter must be settled : •
In battle, and on the battle-field, do you intend to
slaughter myimen who fall into your hands?
If you.do not intend to do so, will they be treated
as prisoners of war?
1 have over two thousand of Sturgis' .command
prisoners, and will hold every officer and private as
a hostage until' I receive your declaration, and am
satisfied .that you carry out in good faith the an
swele you make. and. until I am assured that no
Conlederi.te soldiorpms been foully dealt with from
the day of the battle of Thiamine Creek to this
time. It is not yet too late for you to retrace your
steps and arrest the storm.
Belying, nal do, upon that Divine Power which
in wisdom disposes of all things, relying also upon
the support- and. approval of my Government 'and
countrymen, and the unflinching bravery and endu
rancepf my troops, and with a oonseiousness -that
I have done nothing to produce, but all in my cower
consistent with honor and the personal safety of
myself and command to prevent it, I leave with you
the _responsibility of 'Hinging about, to use your
own language, a "state of affairs too fearful for con
templation.),
. .
I am, sir, very respectfully yours,_

circumstances attending the capture of Fort Pillow,

naturally. give a distorted history of the affair. •
* • • * * • • *.
- As commanding officer of this dspartnient,l
sire to make the following statement concerning the
capture of Fort Pillow—a statement, supported in
a:great measure by the evidence. of one of your own
officers captured at that place: The version given
'by you and your. Government is untrue,
and not
sustained by the facts , to the extent that you indi
eate.• The garrison was-summoned in the usual
manner and its commanding officer assumed the
responsibility of refusing to surrender, after having
been informed by General Forrest of his, ability to
take the fort„and of his fears as to what the result
would be in case the demand was not complied with. ,
The assault was made under a heavy - fire and with
• oensiderable loss to •the attacking party.• Your
colors were never lowered and your garrison never
surrendered, but retreated under cover of a, gunboat,
• with arms in their hands and constantly using them.
This was true particularly of . your colored troops,
who had been firmly convinced by your teachings of
the certainty of slaughter in case of capture. Even •
under these circumstances many of yOur 111811—whito
and black—were . taken prisbners. I respectfully
refer you to history for numerous cases of India
criminate slaughter after successful assault, even -
under less aggravated circumstances. • •
It is generally Conceded by all military precedent
. that *here the issue had been fairly presented and.
the ability displayed, fearful results are expected to
- follow a refusal to surrender.. The case under con
: sideration is almost an extreme one. Yon had a •
servile race armedagainst their masters, and • in a .
. Country.which- had been desolated by almost un
precedented 'outrages. , • • -
- I assert that our officers, with all the drown ,
stances again et 'them, endeavored. to prevent the . . •
effirsiois of blood" and, as.an.evidence of this, I refer
• you to the fact that both white and colored prisoners
!,.were taken, and.o.re nowin-our hands. regards'
• patio: of .Tishlmingo Creekt , tlieretatisments - cr

:from. their previous impressions. do .not think
'many of them were killed—they are yet wandering
over. the country, attempting to return to their was--:
`tors; 'With reference to the status of those captured
.at-Tishimingo ()reek and Fort Pillow, I _ will state
that, unless otherwise ordered by.my - Government,
'they will not be regarded as prisoners of war, but
will be retained , and humanely treated, subject to
such futirte instructions as may be indicated. ..
• ;
Your-letter contains many implied threats"; these,
of course , you can make,. and • you are fully entitled
to any Satisfaction that-you may feel from having
made them. .
• It is my intention, and that also -of my subordi
nate officers, to conduct this war upon civilized
_principles, provided you -permit us-to dn'so,. and I
take this occasion to state that we will not shrink
:from any responsibility that your actions meg force
upon us. We are engaged in 'a struggle - for - the
protection of our homes-and firesides, for the main
tenance of our national existence - and, liberty ; we
have counted the cost, and are prepared to go to
any extremes ; and-though; It is tar from: our wish to
fight under a black flag, still if you,driva - Us to it,
we will accept the issue.. 'Your troops virtually

to be aiding are not considered:entirely responsible
for their acts, influenced, as they are, by the supe

patch, Sentinei, Whig,. and Enquirer of the latest
data, September 9. :We make the following ex
tracts r
AND•FOIITH CAROLINA.
The 'tfiii !oyez. The situation at Petersburg, if,'
not exciting, is still worthy of note, as a day may
develop _a Our troops are judiciously arrang ed,_
how or where it is. hardly politio.to state. Grant's.
line of battle, from City Point to Ream's Station,.
is about twelvamiles long, and if he keeps any por
tion of his :troops concentrated to protect his ex
treme leftson the railroad, he must needs make other
portions of his line very weak, and subject at any.
time to be easily. carried by assault. And if his line
were broken at any point between the rallroaclawl
City Point„ he would be placed in a perplexing.and
hazardous situation, as his army would-be. out in
twain, and one part out off from sappliee.
Twelve Yankee pickets,' occupying a post near
the Davis House, on the Weldon Railroad, were
surprised and captured early Wednesday. morning
by a small Confederate force.
Deserters report that the Yankees show much
fear lest they may find a portion of their-lines blown
up one of- these fine mornings.
Soma few rifle and mortar shells werathrown into
the eity on Wednesday, but no damaga that we could
hear of was accomplished. -
ANOTHER MOVEMENT BY GRANT, EXPECTE...I/
Yankee correspondents hint at an important move
ment by Grant. It is not difficult to divine to , What •
they allude. Grant has massed a -great many
troops on_the railroad, two miles, south, of Peters
burg, and has; within the last ten - days, pushed - his
left a quarter , of a mile across to the west of the
railroitd: , He will, at an early day, make a grand
burst and try to reach the Souteside Railroad at
some point near the town. This is to be his next
grand movement.—Examiner..
A RAIn Anourin NEWBERN.—The Raleigh Con
federate learns from a correspondent that Major
Whitfordmade a circuit around Newham with a
detachment of forty men of the 07th Regiment, and
has returned . safe in _camp. On approaching the
railroad'eleven miles b low Newbern, at 7 o'clock
on the morning of the 21116. ult., he tore up the rail-
road and walled . for 'the approach of the train from
Morehead City, which was to arrive at that point at
half past 9 o'clock. He had only been there a few
moments when four negroes came down the road on
a hand-ear, to see if the road was all right. Tlie
handcar was eaptured,- with tha negroes. This
was in sight of a camp of Yan.kne cavalry and one
company of Yankee infantry, near Croatan Sta
tion. The road was torn up one nillei.below. The
alarm was given and the Yankees advanced down
in such force that Major W. had to retire. \e made.
his way'through swamps and creeks. - The Yankees
were sure they would capture the whole party, but
they have arrived safe in our lines again. The•road
was cut in two places. The oars came up at their
usual very fast speed, and 'did not watch welt below
when the alarm was glventhey ran off, crashed up
the cars and killed several soldiers on board. The
route going and coming was a reugh'one; and ciikr
culated all around the Yankee army at - Newborn:
The Yankee General sent out eight hundred men to
capture Major W.'s whole party, but he retired IM
time. The tramp around was 215 miles, and was
made in six days. • • ; '; • .

Pis Excellency C. B. Vance, Governor of- North Carol
/ilia, Raleigh: -
• *
I have been frequently called upon to mention the
services of North Carolina soldiers in this Army, but
their gallantry and' conduct ,were never more de- •
serving at. admiration than in the engagement at
Beams' Station, on the 2.5 th inst.
The brigades of Generals Cook, Mcßae, and
Lane—the last under the temporary command of
General Conner—advanced- through a thick abattis
of Jelled trees, under .a heavy fire of musketry and
artillery, • and carried the enemy's works with a
steady courage that elicited the warm' cornmenda,
lion of their corps and division commanders and the
admiration of the army.. On the same occasion the
brigade .of General Barringer • bore a conspicuous
part in the operations of the.cayalry, which wore no
irss - distinguished for boldness and efficiency than
there of the infantry. If the men who remain in
North Carolina share the spirit of those they have
tent to the field—as I doubt not they do—her defence
may be securely entrusted to hands.
I am, with =eat respect,

Thursday, at Jonesboro, our troops were literally

six corps of the enemy being engaged—and towards
the close of the fight the Confederates had exhaust

that many of our wounded foil into the enemy's

more than desultory skirnilshing, our force falling
back before the enemy, and a portion of it having
been detached to effect &junction with Hood.

Some particulars have been ' received of the

ten miles northward - hem Jonesboro, was very light,

Hardee's command became isolated from that which
remained in - and about Atlanta in the immediate

says that a furious battle continued all day. A large
number of our wounded arrived at • the hospitals in
Griffin, Miner Station, and Barnesville during the

GUERILLAS AT WORK IN • Mississr . ..PPL—Oaptain
Joseph T. Cobb, who commands a partisan com

officer :_
"I have the honor to report to you that on the
night of the 23d I took my company and moved in
the:direction of Vicksburg. A - little after daylight,
I charged the Yankee corral four miles above Vicks
burg and carried it. There was but a small force of.
the enemy, and that composed' of negroes. I de
stroyed everything that I could not bring off, after
killing about twenty or thirty negro soldiers. I
also - killed four deserters. After destroying the
cbrral, I proceeded to Colonel Blake's place, a GO
vernment plantation, and broke It up'.
"I send you the property captured, to wit,: seven
mules, thirty one ripgroes, ana one goodwagon. I
captured fifteen other negroes belonging to Partee.”
Other partisan leaders are 'at work, and the coun
try is not the safest a Yankee in search of comfort
would seek. For instance, the New York News says
that only seven months ago a foolish Gothamite
bought a confiscated rebel estate in Mississippi, and
roared oat his family, consisting of five persons.
The News adds, the dead bodies of all have been

FORREST'S LATE DASH INTO MEMPHIS—HoIy
BE DOT OUT AllAlN.—The Mississippian, published
at Jackson, Mississippi, gives some interesting par
ticulars of the late I aid of _General. Forrest upon
',Me,rophisf.,: Adashed' in' uPertithe• phew-like- an: -
eagle upon his prey. ',The. Yankees were so com
pletely surprised that nothing was known of the
presence of our men until a]portion of the Yankee
general's staff .was captured, and he forced to • ske
daddle—his nighbdresr flying like a kite in the
breeze. • - . . ••
General Forrest had no time to destroy property •
to any.great extent; his small force of about six
hundred men, as soon as the: Yankees recovered
from their suiprise, being surrounded by four or
five times their number.' He had to charge through
them and make his escape, which he did in grand
style. losing only about thirty men, all told. Capt.
Bill Forrest, who led the advance with one hundred
`picked 'men, only lost two—one killed and, one
, wounded.
TIE-Yankees lost about four hundred in killed,
. wounded, and prisoners. Our forces captured , over
five hundred splendid "horses, clothing, fine small
arms, &c. Although General Forrest did not re
leaze_our prisoners or burn their .Government
stores or transports, he has .shown what can be
done by pluck and daring, and proven to the Yan
kee generale that they are 'not safe even when
guarded•by thousands of bayonets in their "pride
of place," when he is , on the, war path. His bold
movement also had the effect of turning the Yankee
column back that was moving down through North
Mississippi. They wore dumbfounded on hearing
that Forrest had made a dash into Memphis, and
Immediately evacuated Oxford and • turned their
faces northward.
The prisoners captured in Memphis, two. hundred
and thirty odd, were brought down on. the cars to
'Canton, and were to reach Jackson on the next
day:—E±aminer. , . .
MISCELLANEOUS.
There are no•dates from the' Valley except what
the Examiner. calls ' , reports from lying Yankee
journals.", We lind,,however, a• paragraph in the.
Sentinel, detailing Moseby's latest operations
On Saturday last Moseby divided his battalion
into several' bodies, and struck the' enemy in the
Valley at as many different points. One of these de
tacbments bad sent over to Culpeper - Court' House
on Tuesday fourteen prisonersi . captured in its ope
rations. Another detachment fell in with the
Naw. York .6th Cavalry and defeated it. Twen
ty.four prisoners captured in the- fight' have been,
brought off, besides fifteen or twenty left dead on
the field, and several prisoners too .badly wounded
to be removed. On our side private Jarmeni_l) of
Albemarle, was 'killed,•and Nelson;of Fad- ,
quiet; and private Frank Fox, of Fairfax, severely
wounded. A number of horses, Ste., were captured
during these operations. • ' •
The rumor that haagained some currency here that
Moseby has been captured, is without any foitnda
. tion. 'Who le it that starts such stories ? They coma
like the wind ; no ono knows whence.
4propos to this item we publish the folloWing,' ro
ferring to another great guerilla leader, now dead, •
General Morgan.. The „Exarsinit tells " how Gene
ral Morgan foil." It say . s . .
We have just received an authentic account of
• the manner in which General Morgan came to.his
death. Accompanied only by his staff; he w,enkon a
reconnoitring expedition to Greenville, and there
stopped for the night at the: house of one Joseph
Williams, Who is one of Burnside's staff Shortly
after dark left the house Clandes
tinely, and, mounting a horse; rode fifteen miles to
Bull's Gap and informed the Yankees of the where
abents of General Morgan. She returned to Green
ville with a strong force of Yankees, and- piloted
them to her house by a by-path. On the approach of
the enemy General Morgan ran into the back• yard
and there discovered- that the house and grounds
were, surrounded by Yanke&m. Being determined
never again to fall alive into the enemy's hands he
dre* his pistol and flied upon the-Yankees nearest,
to him. Having discharged the contents of' his re
volver he attempted to . break through the line and. •
escape, when a volleynvaslired upon him. He fell
dead, one of the shots having passed through his
heed. All - of General Morganp -staff, except- 411.-
jor Bassett, were captaired. •
Wnsinan's Movamewrs.—Wheeler has gone out
of our hearing. What he does, •or fails •to do, we
will probably learn first through Yankee sources.
Their papers, at last accounts, represent him' as be
tween-Murfreesboro and Nashville, retreating be

The hopes built upon the terrible things c that
Wheeler was tole with Sherman's communications
seem, we regret to say, fast fading into nothing. He
may doeometbing.yet. He must needs do a great
deal to compensate the disadvantages which must
have resulted to, Hood's army on account of the
absence of all its cavalry.. But for his almost en
tire want of cavalry General Hood must have been
in time apprised of Sherman's movement in three

The reduction of the demand - for gold - for oommer
cial purposes has done as much towards inducing a
decline in its premium as the present improved feel
ing consequent on the promising aspect of the mili
tary situation. This diminished demand't& ottribu
table to our reduced imports and large-,exports, the
former owing to the curtailment of the market for
foreign luxuries, in consequence-of [the- necessity or
inclination . to economise in living among the
great majority of the people. It further owing to
the demand for United States gold-bearing bonds in
Europe, the export of which dispenses -with that of
a corresponding amount of gold. The demand for
these will obviously be stimulated by several
causes of recent occurrence on this side, and the
effect of which we have not yet feltin this particular.
Among them - are the anticipation of the payment
of the interest on the 1881 and live-twenty bonds by

price in gold. -The•decline of the gold premium• will
be properly accepted in Europe as a symptom of the
reviving credit of the Government, and' the eager
ness to invest in its bonds will reooive an impetus,
and we should not be surprised to seen mania for
speculating in United States gold-bearing stocks
spring up in Germany before long.
The Secretary of the Treasury has announced the
remainder of the. 6 fjfi cent. gold-bearing loans, not

The condition of the banks in Ma.ssaehniSetts; - oat .
of Boston, for five weeks ending SeptemborB, is re
ported as follows : Oapital stock, 125,009,500 ; loans
and discounts, $°4,013,575; specie in bank, $1,290,193;
balanteS in other banks payable on domand,
$5,671,2481 toital amount due - from other banks,
$6,538,162; total amount due to other banks, $436,
082; deposits, $12,276,370.; circulation, $21;677. , 370.
During the first eight months of the present. year
138,889 bales of Amnricancotton were imported into
Great Britain, Which; in that erruntry,• is; worth
nearly forty millions of dollars •in gold. Nearly
every bale of this cotton ran the - blockade, and We
bulk of it was taken across the Rio Granclartver
from Texas, and shipped from Mexican ports on the
Gulf. Since the Ist of January, 1863, England has
received 2 0 6,424 bales of cotton which was grown In
the United States.
The liew:York Evening Post of yesterday says
TLe sensation rumors that Mr. Fessenden has de
cided to place another Government' loan• on the
market immediately, are without foundation. We
are authorized to say that at present no new loan
will be offered.
The price of gold fell this morning lower than s it
has been since the 25th of _Tune - five day's after the
gold bill was signed by the President. Gold opened
at 226 and sold down to 2133 x, afterwards reaching
to 217 X, and 'closing at 217;,1. Exchange is dull at
109 for specie.
The loan market is active at 7 1 cent: The appre
hension oc difficulty in meeting the payments on
account of the new loan, and the scarcity of green
backs in consequence of the drain to the West for the
moving of the crops, are the principal eauses to
which the activity is ascribed.
The stock market opened strondliftt closed heavy.
Governments are less active.-Ten-forties are offered
at 07. Coupon sixes of 1881 are quoted at 1.08;,ap
.108 M five - twenties ; coupon at 110%@1i1: Small
ten-forties are in more. request at 300a102, and small
five-twenties are quoted at losumio. Before the
first session, gold sold from 225 1 E to 223. -
