THE WORK. BEFORE THE NATIONAL
UNION PARTY-WORDS OF CANDOR
AND OF corms-rm.
Men who have acted together in the
greatest civil war of modern times, and
have crushed the most 'formidable rebel
lion ever organized to destroy a free Go
vernment, are not united by ordinary ties.
The bond that connects and consolidates
them is composed of enduring material,
and cannot be weakened or severed by
common trials or differences of opinion.
They learned how to trust and to love each
other when confidence and affection were
essential to their own safety and the sue-.
cess of the cause for which they labored
and suffered.
Hundreds of thousands first knew each
other in the dangers and privations of the
battle-field, and a yet larger number were
taught the virtue of concert of sentiment
and of action in the civil organizations for
the support of their brave brothers who
were engaged on the bloody theatre of war.
Friendships formed under such circum
stances will last through long and
pleasant years almost beyond the
grave. The mere recollections of com
mon dangers and common sufferings
will be the invincible chain of undoubting
.devotion of the one to the other. But there
is another motive for the continuance of
this noble brotherhood. Apart from the
glorious memories that stir their own hearts
and make their country - proud to honor
them, is the solemn invocation that upon
them, and upon harmony in the ranks of
those who have co-operated with them,
will depend the future grandeur, entirety,
and strength of the Republic. Their
mighty work is not, therefore, done.
Combined with their patriotic fellow-citi
zens, they must see that what they saved
should not be again endangered; that
what they rescued• shall be preserved.
;Should the full force of these paramount
truths not be realized, the rebellion will
have been crushed almost in vain.
The banished and baffled traitors will
resume the ascendancy they forfeited,
and the mission of a redeemed and
purified republic defeated and turned
into inconceivable failure and shame. It
is in view of the unspeakable obligation
that rests upon all of us, to prevent any
such catastrophe, that we propose some
words of candor to those who may be
called the custodians of the common liber
ties, and the guardians of the hopes and
interests of the American people.
It is madness to attempt to conduct a
party upon the traditions of obsolete or
ganisations, or to shape it by former
pledges or platforms, or to insist that no
thing shall be yielded to secure the triumph
to those who agree upon substantive and
definite truths and objects. We are in a
novel epoch. We have escaped a rebellion,
but are in the midst of a revolution. A
war that struck into the grave a crime
century-crowned and strong, and launch
ed into light and liberty more than four
millions of human beings, also, killed
much of the slavery of party in
cluding all manner of sectionalism, and
gave birth to an aggressive, athletic,
and unsleeping spirit of national progress.
There are classes of dangerous politicians
in this country to-day who understand
these truths, and fear that they may be
realized and acted upon by the National
Union party ; for upon the harmonious
existence of that party depend, as we have
said and believe, the harmony of our re
deemed States, the successful development
of the wealth of this western world, and the
substantial reorganization of our whole re
publican system. If that party can be dis
turbed, dislocated, or in any manner di
vided and weakened, to that extent the re
actionary or rebellious elements will be en
couraged, and the great work of restoration
defeated or fatally delayed. To provide
against such a calamity will demand the
most patriotic, unselfish, and comprehen
sive policy on the part of the lead
ing men of the National Union organi
zation. The old Democratic leaders,
anxious to secure the possession of the Go
vernment which their counsels had almost
destroyed, and deluded by the hope that
because they sympathized with the rebel
lion they can create a party out of the
wreck of the rebellion and the remains of
their former organization in the adhering
states, are elated by the expectation that
these same leading men cannot agree
on fundamental principles, and that the
war having ended, each will revert to his
own special ideas, and refuse to yield any
thing for the sake of securing a common
triumph and perpetuating a homogenous
and sincere organization. That this ma
lignant hope will he fulfilled, is to suppose
that unselfish patriotism expired at the mo
ment our public leaders were called to as
sist in gathering the harvest of their sub
lime workmanship.
The materials for the base, the super
structure, the solid walls, and the crown
ing canopy of a great National ITIOn
party are, we conceive, to be found in the
following plain propositions : 4
I. Thafthe rebellion neither destroyed
the Republic nor the States of which it is
composed.
IL That slavery having provoked and
hastened and fought for the rebellion, it was
forfeited by the first gun fired by treason,
was de6troyed by the destruction of the
rebel armies, and was buried in the same
grave with the rebellion itself.
111. That the four millions of human
Leings made free by the success of the
Union arms must be protected in their
.efforts to labor for and to elevate and, to
instruct themselves; and that the Go
veinment should adopt such a policy e as
will forever prevent them from being made
the victims of the cruelty of their former
masters.
IV. That to pay the national- debt, prin
cipal and interest, is an obligation as sacred
and as binding as the covenant to maintain
the Union and die obedience we owe to
God.
V. That not one farthing of the debt in_
curred to begin and to prosecute the rebel
lion should ever be recognized by the Go
vernment or the people of the United States,
or regarded save as a monument of the fa
tal delusion and unspeakable retribution of
the men who took arms against their bene
factor and friend.
VI. That none of the authors and leaders
of the rebellion should ever be admitted to
places of trust or honor under the General
Government.
VII. That henceforward the energies of
the people of the restored Union should be
devoted to the development of the natural
resources of the whole country, to the pro
tection of the domestic industries - and
manufactures, and to the perfection of those
great connecting overland thoroughfares by
which all sections and States are brought
and bound together, and the whole fabric
of American freedom woven into one inde
structible and inviolable Constitution and
Government,
These general principles contain the spe
cific remedies for all immediate evils.
It is impossible to frame a code to meet
every belief, or to afford a panacea for every
disease. These general principles will
promote an enduring nationality. The
Union party cannot be a national party if
it makes negro suffrage a test. Belonging,
as that subject does, to the States, it must
be left to the States. To attempt to force
it on the South is simply to embitter the
South, and to endanger the Union party
in the North ; for it must not be forgotten
that until the rebellion broke upon us, in not
a single free State, not even in Massachusetts,
were the few colored men allowed the un
qualified right to vote. Nor can you build
a national party by making the confisca
tion of rebel estates on the plan of Mr.
STEvENS an issue or a condition. Con
fiscation is confessedly a war measure, and
yet as it was only partially enforced in
time of war, how do you propose to exer
cute it in time of peace ? Nor can you
stand before your own people on the idea
of keeping the late insurgent States out
of the Union, when they ask readmission
accepting and adopting all the changes pro
duced by the legislation of Congress and the
abolition of slavery. You may keep the
individual traitors out forever, if you
have the numerical power, but you
will be defeated in nearly every free
election district on the question of ex
cluding the late rebel States with their
purified Constitutions. When the Cop
perheads try to make capital against
courts-martial, "arbitrary arrest's," mili
tary executions, and the suspension of tye
writ of habeas corpus, why do they fail ?
Because, and only because, they try to
make head against what was a temporary
anti a justified necessity—a necessity exist
ing only during the war, and ending with
the end of the war and its inevitable conse
quences. Let the National Union party
beware of falling into an error which has
been so fearfully avenged upon the Copper
heads.
Standing closely upon these general
yet definite principles, and refusing to
be tempted into what may be
termed experimental or temporary ex
pedients, the Union party will become a
solid national party. Now is the time to
be forearmed against evanescent or local
dogmas or tests. For a time, Anti-masonry
swept counties and States 'in the' fury of
its hostility to secret societies. For a time,
Know-Nothingism swept counties and
States before the fury or its fanaticism in
favor of secret societies. Based, let us ad
mit, upon good motives, neither of these
paroxysms is remembered with pleasure,
or quoted as an example fit to be imitated.
Now hatred of slavery is a religion, and
cannot die in the minds of honest men ;
and yet, when slavery perishes, why keep
alive the memory of a resentment, which
only keeps alive the passions of the dead
rebellion and the reconciled civil war ?
What the Union party should aim at is to
carry the elections in the South, as well as
in the North. It is the labor and the prayer
of the sympathiging Democracy that this may
never be. Shall they succeed ? Shall the
brains, the courage, the unity, the utter '
absence of selfishness, and the marvellous,
skill and genius that startled all the
nations, and destroyed slavery and treason,
be found absent or useless when the great
work of holding and governing the coun
try, after it has been saved ftom death, comes
to be discharged Are the petty passions, the
party hates, the personal envies, the narrow
neighborhood dogmas, so nobly set aside
during all the years of war as to be almost
forgotten by men who had become accus
tomed to mighty deeds, to be recalled in
all their littleness now, as if to disgrace,
dwarf, and damn the mission that courts
our championship and control?
Be sure ! If the great National Union
parly fails in this duty, others will not.
The New York Democrats saw their
chance hi the conscious argument here
plainly and palpably presented. All co
vered with the mire and the shame of com
plicity with the rebellion, they brushed
themselves clean of that disgrace, and peni
tentially, yet with. infinite effrontery, assert
ed the doctrines against which they have
been most bitterly contending. We have
nothing to regret, nothing to ask par
don fbr, and nothing to give up, (but
what, in due course of time, we must yield
in the face of defeat if we persist in
them) that we cannot honorably yield to
become masters of the future as we are
of the present. It is for ourselves to de
cide, whether having won the strong pla
teau of liberty, having passed the dead
point of danger, having planted our flag on
the outer, as well as the higher walls, we
shall begin to quarrel among ourselves over
dead records, or living impracticabilities,
and make way for an easy surrender to
those who are now our captives or our
hostages.
A RECENT number of the Atlanta (Ga.)
Intelligence?' advocates
.protection as a ne
cessity of the South as well as the North.
It contends that industy needs and deserves
such fostering care, and that the mineral
wealth hidden in the mountains of Georgia
requires the same attention as that buried
beneath the soil of Pennsylvania. This is
another result of the emancipation of the
blacks, and is a consequence as logical as
it is immediate. Cotton is no longer king;
even in the sea islands, and the laborer is a
freeman; therefore his industry must be
diversified andhis rights and necessities
recognized. The planter of the South
used all his political influence in favor of
free trade, but the moment the plantation
is divided into farms he learns the advan
tages of the decried system, and the mere
distant prospect of the institution of manu
factories, foundries and thrnaces on his
own soil converts him into a protectionist.
We thus see how true it is that a country
exporting raw cotton and cultivating slave
men, has interests radically differing from
and antagonistic to those of a country
where the laborers are educated and tree,
and the industry diversified and enlight
ened—a difference that will. soon be de
stroyed, we trust, forever, in. America.
THE
,PRESS.=-4 1 1111 4 Amplu A., WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER SO, 1565:
BRITISH ROLL•CALL Or IMIHONOB.
Lending money, said a wisiOmm, is an
unOstentatieus .wa y of making a present
This is a fact which the English'holders of
stock in the "so-called Confedeiate" loan
are about realizing. They have held a
public meeting, in London, at which it was
suggested that the United States should pay
off the rebel debt; but the idea was laughed
at, and the meeting was adjourned to the
18th of October, when the subject is to be
Ventilated again. Of course, they know
as all the world knows, that the United
States will never pay one cent of the rebel
loan. •
We have been curious, all along, to know
who were the foolish folks in England who
lent that money. That curiosity was grati
fied by the publication, yesterday, of the
manes of some of the dupes whose sym
pathy with slavery induced them to open
their purses and lend money to the slave
holding rebels. That especial ninny, the
Lancashire baronet, bight Sir HENRY
HOUGHTON DE HOUGHTON, has suffered to
the extent of $900,000. The young Mar
quis of Bath has lost $250,000. A brace of
army contractors and shipowners have
sunk $1,450,000 in that slough of despond
—but had probably netted thrice as much
by trading (sending supplies and running
the blockade) with the South. Baron
WIIARNCLIFFE, a member of the House of
Lords, put in $25,000. Lords CAMPBELL and
DONOUGHMORE, who used to speak boldly
for the rebels in their place in Parliament,
ventured only $5,000 each. Several mem
bers of the House of Commons, who were
violent rebel partisans, were also " stuck "
by the rebel loan. Mr. LAIRD, of Birken
head, who built the Alabama, put in
$100,000; but Messrs. PEAcocx and GRE
GORY, who used to heartily berate the
Union Government, each ventured only a
fifth of that amount. For the rest, bankers,
capitalists, doctors, lawyers, stock-brokers,
and one titled old lady, gallantly risked
their money, and—will lose it. Well, it
was only a bit of gambling ; the speculators
paid about fifty-three dollars for every one
hundred-dollar note of rebel stock, and if it
had reached par, every one of them would
have nearly doubled their venture. The fine
old oaks which surround Houghton Tower
will have to be thinned, we suspect, to
bring back the nine hundred thousand dol
lars, the foolish HOUGHTON DE HOUGHTON,
Baronet, has lost.
By the published list, it appears that
thirty-eight persons in England invested
£898,000 in the Rebel loan. This is close
upon $4,500,000, and is probably fully two
thirds of all the money so appropriated by
the English people. No doubt, those who
invested small sums did so, like SYDNEY
SMITH, twenty-five years ago, in the plea
sant hope of receiving ten instead of three
per cent. interest upon their money. They
knew no better, and may be pitied, but the
noble lords, the semi-noble baronets, the
right-honorablcs, the honorables, the hank
ers, merchants, and other great folks who
risked their funds, to sustain a most unholy
cause, merit no pity, and ought not re
ceive any.
Several newspaper men went largely
into this loan. Mr. JAMES SPENCE, the
well-known anti. Union Liverpool agent for
the South, and special correspondent of
The Times, put down $250,000. Mr.
BEREsPORD }TOPE, proprietor of the Satur
day _Review, has _ sank $200,000, Mr.
SAMPSON, who writes the money articles in
The Times, spoitecl - $75,000. Mr. DELANE
(originally one of the Delany family of
Cork) ventured only $50,000, and a Mr.
RIDOUT, of the Horning Post, Lord PAL
MERSTON'S oigan, modestly risked $20,000.
So, all the time that The Times, Morn
ing Post, and Saturday Review, seemed
to -be writing the Union down and writ
ing rebellion up, they really were using
and abusing the great power of the press
for their own mean and selfish purposes.
For the credit of our craft we lament this.
Lastly, for all things must conclude, the
list closes with the names of the Honorable
Mr. ASHLEY and the Right Honorable W.
E. GLADSTONE; the first for $2,500, the
other for sio,ooo. AsriLEY, who is private
secretary to Lord PALMERSTON, his grand
step-father, is son of Lord SITAFTES_
BURY,- the pious, who has long been -a
great anti-slavery spokesman. GLADSTONE,
Chancellor of the Exchequer, is a Cabinet
Minister. Here we have the Premier's
near relative, - who is also his private secre
tary, giving five hundred pounds sterling
to the Confederate loan, and Mr, GLAD
STONE, the man of the time, investing four
times that amount ! No wonder that GLAD
STONE puffed off Mr, JEFFERSON DAVIS as
a man who had founded an empire (he
holds his .court in Fortress Monroe of late),
and made his infamous Newcastle speech
against our Union. He was oratorical in
order that his two thousand pounds in Con
federate stock might fructify.
WHEN WASHINGTON resigned his com
mand of the army, which he had conducted
.through a long and sanguinary struggle to
ultimate victory, and retired to the enjoy
ments of that peaceful country life that he
so coveted, or, as he himself expressed it,
again " became a private citizen on the
banks of the Potomac," he instantly and
conscientiously resumed all the duties of
the position. The internal improvement of
the country, and especially the prosecution
of all methods by which intercourse and
trade could be facilitated, were the particu
lar objects of his attention. To his clear
and practical mind, the WeSt was, even at
that early day, of vital importance, and he
prepared a luminous exposition of the ad
vantages to be derived by
_strengthening
the bonds of connection between that sec
tion and the Eastern States. With this aim,
and the kindred purpose of studying the
condition of agriculture, WASHINGTON
travelled considerably through the States of
Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia ; but the
general interest did not prevent his laboring
for the especial detail lying nearest his own
home. The improvement of the navigation
'of the James and Potomac rivers was re
-1
garded by him as a matter of great moment,
and he zealously advocated the employment
of all the means conducing to such a result.
Eighty years have elapsed between that
time and the present, yet it is curious to
I note how close a resemblance there exists
I' between the duty incumbent upon the dis
banded army, of our recent war and that of
the earlier epoch, and it is instructive to see
how admirably and wisely the intelligent
patriotism of Wasnixo.rox recognized the
paramount duty of the peaceful citizen and
the promptitude with which his conviction
resulted in action.
FROM the very earliest discovery of Vir
ginia it has been known that she possessed
great mineral wealth. Mining of different
kinds has been attempted from time to
time, but never very successfully, for the
reason that the whole spirit of the commu
nity has heretofore been unpropitious to the
energetic prosecution of such labors by the
inhabitants themselves, while popular senti
ment offered all possible obstacles to,. the
introduction of either capital or labor from
the free States. The prejudices of the peo
ple were arrayed in hostility to Northern
enterprise, and the few that ventured upon
the undertaking were either branded as
Abolitionists or dreaded as innovators. All
attempts from without were thus opposed
by the antipathies and prejudices of the
people; all enterprise from within hindered
by the inefficiency of slave labor, and the
general want of that vigorous and concerted
action and that 'wondrous impulse that
drives a free and intelligent community
unto all the multiform exertions of inven
tion and discovery.
A party of Northern capitalists holding
coal lands on the James river, have already
applied to the Freedman's Bureau for a
thOUSand workmen, to labor in the mines
at wages; and if this venture is successful,
it may be followed by many others of a
similar character. Under the recent im
pulse, there have been many investigations
into the nature of the mineral products of
Virginia, and it is asserted that the State
contains gold, silver, iron, copper, platinum,
cobalt, galena, cinnabar, tellurium, lead,
plumbago, tin, coal, roofing slate, gypsum,
limestone, soapstone, etc. Such a wealth
beneath her surface ought soon to prod.uce
a return.. that would canoe/ all her debts,
destroy all her mortgages, obliterate all the
vestiges of the ruin incident upon the war,
and plate her in a position to enter into
competition with those happier sister States,
that long since freed themselves from the
depressing and degrading influences of sla
very.
THE STARS AND STRIPES sailing this
week from Philadelphia for Havana, is the
first of a line of steamships to be established
between the two ports. Regular and early
communication with this leading maritime
city of the West Indies, will offer great fa
cilities to an important branch of trade, and
will further many of the interests of Phila
delphia. Our city unites in its position
grand elements of wealth. As an inland
town it has close connection with all parts
of the country, and is the centre of a vast
agricultural and manufacturing district,
while its station on the banks of the broad,
deep Delaware gives it all the advantages
of a sea-board position. Many nations and
cities have attained great wealth by engaging
in a mere carrying trade between manufac
turing and agricultural countries, without
participating in those pursuits themselves,
except to a very limited extent; but when a
city is so wonderfully blessed with the
means and opportunities of aegbiring - wealth
in such a variety of directions as is the good
fortune of Philadelphia, it is only negligence
and inertness in the inhabitants that can
prevent it from becoming exceedingly afflu
ent.
A CORRESPONDENT from Decatur, Ala
bama, states that there is a very fair op
portunity in that vicinity for the investment
of Northern capital, as well as the immi
gration of Northern laborer& A large pro
portion of the cotton land has been lying
fallow for two 4 , ears, and is in excellent
condition for cultivation ; negro labor is
plentiful and cheap, and many of the plan
ters are anxious to lease or sell their lands.
From careful observation the writer has
arrived at the following statement of ex
penses : The total cost of cultivating one
hundred acres in cotton, including rent of
land, hire of labor, purchase of mules, etc.,
would not reach more than from $2,000 to
$2,500. An average yield exceeds 250
pounds to the acre, or over fifty bales, of 500
pounds each, to the 100 acres; worth, at 20
cents per pound, $5,000, leaving a net profit
of $2,500 to $3,000, in addition to.the mules
and implements.
"Tny wxsg. was fathei, Hazy, to that
thought," has a new application to that
most potent oracle, the
~ London Times; for
the names of two of its editors appear in
the published list of English speculators
who have been involved in the losses at
tendant upon the sudden depreciation of
the Confederate loan. Other names in the
list leave it a question open to debate
whether the investments were made in
confirmation of a belief 14 our ultimate
overthrow, or whether the prognostica
tions of our defeat were intended •to raise
the price of the Rebel bond&
Trim general character of the political
views of the people of Colorado, who re
cently adopted the new State constitution
and. simultaneously voted against negro
suffrage, is thus described by the Black
Hawk (Colorado) Mining 10269 . 2ica :
"The voluntary preference of the request,
by Colorado, that she may be permitted to
enter the august family Of States, whose des•
tiny is to redeem a world, politically, will be
of inestimable advantage to her, in various
ways, which the future will so plainly unfold
that the dullest of those who have refused to
See the point," will be obliged to admit it.
With regard to the probable action of Congress
on our admission, we do not believe it will be
unfavorable. True, we have rejected noon°
SUFFRAGE by an almost unanimous vote • and
our action of last year, in refusing the en
abling act of Congress, created the im
pression In the East - Gnat we are a set
of guerillas and Southern sympathizers. -But
our record in the war for the Union is as bright
as that of any State or Territory. We have
not only protected ourselves—we have saved,
or rather re-conquered, New Mexico. We have
aided in thepreservation of mlesonri anti Kan•
sas to the 'Union. We have furnished, by
volunteering, more than our quota of troops
under all the 'CALLS of the late war. At the
last general election, when party politics was
a direct issue, the Union party carried the
Territory almost two to one. We believe that
party still has a vast 'majority, and always will
have. As friends of our admission into the
Union, we believe we may safely count on the
President, whose settled opinion is that the
Stores atone have the constitutionai authority
to prescribe the qualifications of voters. We
may count on all so-called Democrats. We
may count on the Conservative Republicans.
We may count somewhat on the necessities, if
We May so term it, of both parties—the Pro
gressive and the Reactionary."

It is a matter of general congratulation
that this eminent' jurist, after an indisposi

to be in the enjoyment of excellent health.
MELTING OF LOYAL PENNSYLVA•
IUANS IN WASHINGTON.
ADJOURNMENT UNTIL MONDAY EVENING NEXT.
A meeting of loyal Pennsylvanians was held
last evening, at half-past 7 o'clock, in the Union
League building, on Ninth street.
Vice President Colonel Francis Jordan,
Pennsylvania State Agent, tilled the chair, the
President being absent.
The President called the meeting to order,
after which the Secretary, Joseph M. Wilson,
proceeded to read the minutes of the last
meeting.
Mr. Welsh, chairman of COMMitteent Trans
portation, reported he had seen the presidents
of the different railroads in Pennsylvania, and
thought they can make arrangements to get
home as they did last year. lie also dropped
a letter, in Baltimore city, to the president of
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company,
but bad not heard from him yet. The otne,ers
of the railroad companies generally seemed
anxious to get the men home as cheap as pos
sible, as they thought this election would be
of more importance_ than the last.
General Ekin, chairman Committee onLeare.
of Absence, stated that he had addressed a
communication to each of the Cabinet, and re
ceived an answer from Hon. Secretary Harlan,
stating that they could have from the 2d
until the 12th. lie expreSSed a wish for all of
the loyal Pennsylvanians to go home and
squash all of the Copperheads so deep that
they could not be reached on the day of the
resurrection. [Great applause.] A vote of
thanks to lion. secretary Harlan was here ten
dered.
The committees appointed at the last meet
ing to visit the different camps reported, but
said, finding that many of the men had not
been assessed, they could not report very sa
tisfactorily g therefore, a new committee was
appointed to visit the different regiments in
the department, all Government shops and the
artments.
One of the committee had waited on Cap
tain Allen, and found Pennsylvania men in
his employ ; he also informed the committee
of many other men who were not under hint.
Any time the committee would call on him it
would be a pleasure to him to accompany
them, and to assist them in any way in his
power.
The committee that visited the navy-yard
and arsenal reported very few Pennsylvania
men there.
On motion, the meeting adjourned to Mon
day night next. —Washington Chronicle of yester

Rebel Naval Officers Not to Lose their
Rights of Citizenship.
OPINION OF ATTORNEY GENERAL SPEED
ATTORNEY GENERAL'S OFFICE,
August 13,1855.
ffstyls McCulloch, Secretary of the Treasury:
Sint I have the honor to say, in replyto your
letter of the 7th inst., that in my opinion, if
the two persons to whom you refer as havin.
resigned - commissions in the naval service o'
Abe United States, and accepted employment
in the rebel naval service, were born in the
United iStates, or, if born in a foreign coun
try, were or have been naturalized as citizens
of the United. States, aro, if otherwise qualified,
competent, according to the act of June '2SM,
ISIII, to 1)8 OiliCerB of vessels of the Unite d
States, •
- •
If they were citizens before they engaged in
rebellion they did not lose their citizenship
by becoming traitors. They became liable to
suffer the pains and penalties which the law
inflicts upon-convicted traitors, but I am not

MYSTERIOUS TRAGEDY IN SAVANNAH—TWO
COLORED MEN SHOT.—A police oftleer informed
us at two o'clock - this morning that two
colored men, in the 'vicinity of Bast Broad
street, were shot by a party of Cavalrymen,
al.out twelve o'clock last night. One of the
victims was conveyed In a wagon to his
aencuin Broughton street in a dying condi
tion, The bullet passed through his body,
indicting a fearful wound just below the left
lung. The other man was shot througlfthe
head, and was reported in an insensible Con
dition, and not expected to survive till day
light. Our informant states that the negroes
`l% ere standing quietly at the corner•of a street
in the dark, when the shots were fired' into
them without the slightest warning or pro
vocation. We were unable to obtain the names
of the unfortunate men, or to gather any fur
ther particulars of the bloody affair, and we
give the above statement as it was narrated

The iletails of an atrocious system of rob
bery by-which our soldiers; on their way from
Hart's Island* to this city, are 'stupefied with
poisonous drinks, and then swindled under
Various pretexts, have just come to light. The
outlines of the plan ate substantially as follows.:
Steamboats are chartered make excur
sions in the harbor; soldiers who have just
been paid off are induced to take passage to
the city; when on board they are carried
about the harbor and amused, while drugged
or stupefying liquors are sold to them, and
ruffians sell them spurious jewelry or other
worthless articles, and by false representa
tions, and sometimes by threats, succeed in
robbing them of a large part of their wages.
The soldiers are, in many cases, paid on Hart's
Island, from one hundred to four or five hun
dred dollars each on final settlement, and the
gains of the persons who swindle them are
proportionally large.
There were some very singular occurrences
on board the steamboat Massasoit on Monday
of lust week. Three hundred soldiers of the
2Stli. United States Colored Infantry who em.
barked at Hart Island, .were not landed as
they desired, but were conveyed to various
places in the harbor ; were sickened with vile
drinks, and thieves operated freely among
them. Finally, the commander Of the soldiers,
Colonel Gurnsey, found it necessary to putthe
captain' of the boat, McLean, under arrest;
and in consequence of this ct the soldiers
were not robbed to the extent, the officers be
lieve, they would otherwise have been.
Colonel Browne, the United States paymas
ter, who bad paid the colored soldiers four
hundred dollars each, was on the steamboat.
He had forty thousand dollars in Government
funds in his possession; and information was
given to him that some of the ruffians on
hoard were making plans to seise the money.
For two hours and a half he , held his loaded
pistol in his hand, and he was not molested.
It was by his advice that Captain McLane was
compelled to place the colored soldiers on
shore at Peck Slip.
Colonel Gurnsey and one of his officers have
since been arrested for constructive assault
and battery upon the captain of the boat, and
the suit will soon come before the courts.

CITY ITEMS.
THE "FLOREHOE" TniumsnAsim.—Why the
"Florence" is superior to all other &tang
Machines; Compare, reflect, then purchase:
First. Its reversible feed, leading either to
the right or left ; its perfect reliability, never
skipping cliches, and the making of four dif
ferent stitches for the various kinge of work.
Second. It is almost noiselese; runs veryfast;
the change of the feed and stitch is made
whilst the machine is in motion.
Third. It makes the look-stitch;which has
been considered heretofore the best in use.
We add to that the "double lock," which
makes it doubly sure ; the, half and full knot
stitches being a perfect knot to every stitch,
which is more durable than can be mile by
any other machine, or by hand, and in au
cases leaving the stitches on both sides of the
work alike.
The feed may be reversed at any point with
out stopping the maCiline, Change for the va
rious kinds of stitches are made whilst the
machine is in motion. Its stitches, forbeauty,'
strength, and elasticity, are the wonder of all.
The beauty of it - Ls unsurpassed. No other
corers so largo a range of work 4 sews light
and heavy fabrics with equal facility, and
without change or alteration of tension,

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
The stock speculation which was so rampant
during the progress of the war, brought into
existence a large number of brokers and quasi
bankers, who at the close of it reckoned their
profits at a very high figure. The currency, as
it 'daily expanded, fostered the speculative
spirit, and to this was added the still greater
stimulants, the fluctuations of -.military sue_
cess and defeat. The war having subsided,
and the currency, if not being curtailed, cer
tainly not. augmenting, the question natu
rally arises how so many brokers' offices on
Third and Other streets can pay rent and other
expenses. There is not in their favor even the
oil excitement that used to pay such hand
some commissions. Happily, there exists no
longer that recklessness in stock jobbing,
that characterized this and Other markets
a few months ago, and even those who sought
to make sudden fortunes by the rise or fall of
stocks or of gold have retired from the risks
of speculation, either contented with their
gains or disheartened by their losses. It is
certain that there is no field for factors in
stock-buying or selling, as has been the case
for two or three years past, and we are pre
pared to see a large number of the Third•street
operators betaking themselves to their origi
nal pursuits, or at least leaving what may be
deemed a precarious mode of existence. The
stock market is not likely to be moved either
one way or another for some time to come.
There can be uo real change till the outside
public determine to buy or to sell, and at pre
sent we perceive no indications of any such
disposition. In fancy stocks there is as little
to be done as in railroad shares. So many
worthless stocks have been foisted upon
people that they are naturally coy where the
danger is that they will burn their fingers as
severely as their neighbors have been singed.
Many of these stocks are inflated in price
beyond all reason, and it, would be bettor for
the market to have them run down gradually
to their real values. In the meantime we
have only to keep the record correct and to
watch the movements to restore activity to
the street.
There are no changes to notice in the de
mand or in the prices of Government bonds.
The 10-10 s rule at 93X, the 7-30 s at 99%, the old

The recent meeting of Iron Illanufactureit
at Cleveland, gives us the materials for calcu
lating the decline of Iron manufacture in 1865
below the figures to which it attained . in 1864.
While some share of this decline is due to the
disproportionate prices of labor and supplies
prevailing for the last six months, still more
is due to the opening of the door to foreign
iron. The most striking factsreported at that
meeting were, first, that of twenty-one anthra
cite furnaces in the Schuylkill Valley in blast
in 1864, and making 94,000 tons of iron, but eight
are in blast in 1865, making 25,000 to 30,000 tons.
Of twenty-nine anthracite furnaces on the
Lehigh, reeking 214,000 tons Of iron, but eleven
continue in blast, making probably 75,000 tons.
Of twenty-one furnaces on the Upper Susque
hanna, but four remain in blast ; and of seven:
teen on the Lower Susquehanna, but five re
main in blast. Generally the anthracite AU ,
nacos make not more than one-third as much
iron in 1865 as in 1864. Pittsburg has thirty
two iron works, and six great steel establish%
meats. Of these, the number silent is eleven
iron works, and two steel works. But one fur
naveout of five is in blast. Philadelphia, with
eleven rolling mills, is now producing but
ten per cent. of its productions in 1864. The
great Danville rolling mills are silent, with
more than half the works of the like charac
ter throughout the country.
There has as yet been no public announce
ment of the authorization of a national bank
in the State of TIMM, but it is stated that one
will soon be established in Galveston, with a
capital of $500,000, and another at Brownsville,
with a capital of $lOO,OOO. Applications have
also been made for a bank at Houston, with
$300,000 Capital, for one at Austin, with a capi
tal of $lOO,OOO, one at San Antonio, with $lOO,-
000, one at Huntsville, with $lOO,OOO, and one at
Tyler, with sloo,ooo—making an aggregate ca
pital for the State of *1,300,000.

the national banks since October, 1863:

The London Times, of the Gth, says "The
telegraphic announeement yesterday from
New York, to the effect that a new broyernmeat
loan will shortly be issued had now been orn
daily confirmed, created disappointment
among the dealers, vlio bad placed faith in
the statements received by previous mails that
the treasury was well provided against all
wants up to December.
" The advices from Frankfort mention that
the settlement on the_Bourse for the August
account has ahown that the market is at length
overstocked with American funds, while dis
count remains at 3 per cent. As much as 10
per cent. was paid for carrying the transac
tions forward to the new account. It appears
there are many weak holders, and as every
steamer brings new supplies, prices give way
if not supported by better few York quota
tions."
These statements are to be received with
some grains of allowance. There have been
repeated evidences that the news agencies in
England are more or less manipulated for pri
vate interests.
