LOVAL INTELLIGENCE.
'ONDAY MORNING, JULY 11, 184
The Times.
In dltir city times are becoming very shaky
indeed. No one complains of hard times for
wages are good and money is abundant, but the
unsettled state of the money market, and con
sequently of prices, is such as to make men
very guided In concluding contracts. The land
lord will not engage to keep a hone or a -num
ber of 'horses at a given price, longer than a
week or so, and even then he may disappoint.
We understand that a contra:ct was made to
keep the circus hones and feed them a certgin
number of days at a certain price, and before
they arrived oats had gone up and hay had gone
.up andthe result was the contract could not be
kept without Berton* loss. Men who bargained
a few days ago to sell wool at a certain figure
hare retased to fella their contract's. With
flour it Is the same. Barley is bringing two dol
lar! before it is cut, and it will be doubtful
whether farmers will part with it, at that,
though in three months it may not be worth a
dollar. The times are so shaky that no one
knows exactly bow to by or sell. Prices may
-be mlieh higher before long, and on the other
hand they may not be half ao high. All depends
upon the money market, and it depends on our
successes In financial matters by the General
Government. Success of arms alone will not
censor thee financial dangers and difficulties.
Spending three millions per day and realizing
iltiffyllve hundred thousand from all our sources
of revenue lajurestbe credit of the nation abroad,
and renders it suspicious at home. Every
oreignpower knows that since this war c.ommeac.
ed we have been expending on an average three
millions of dollars per day, and that the war has
lasted for four years or about fourteen hundred
days. As a consequence our credit abroad , 13
Inversely in proportion to our debt at home.
Even if the war were brought to a successful
termination it is doubtful whether times will
not be worse instead of better. We have a tre
ieendiouel) inflated currency, and there will be,
hfid can be nn certainty in business until this in
flation is removed and regulated. The price of
gold will be controlled by the foreign market
entirely, no matter how many law s may be made
to the contrary. What gold is worth in . Europe
"hat It will be worth here, and the condition
of thi ngs he'-`4 wig depend almost entirely on
the price of gold in f Cone. Renee, times will
be shaky, no matter what elge may be done to
care - there tip. But what hi the use of acaPair
ing. We all knew what the effects of the war
Woubfbe before it began. War cannot be carri
ed an. r withoutexpense, and the longer it lasts
the more grinding It becomes. But it LB too late
now to remedy the evil Let us look at the
darkoloud with firm hearts. Caine weal or come
woe, it will not make matters any better to
despair. Our local trade and business will be
good and favorable as long as trade will be pros
perous any where else. All we can do now is
to "trust in Providence, and keep the powder
dry."

poft on the Penns. R. R. Mr. Covode had to
elffitianter mnoh difficulty in obtaining the body.
Aftergetting permission to pass the lines, scouts
had to be sent out in all directions to ascertain
the Corea of the enemy, who are chiefly guerril
la; and then - a mounted force of forty men, with
tlam ambulances and three surgeons under com
mand of Capt. Parke of .Plttaburg, ventured near
fifteen miles into the enemies lines, exhumed
and embalmed the body and returned without
molestation though the risk was great. The
country Is full of guerrillas who had stripped the
body of the Colonel and others; many of whom
were lying unburied on the battle-field when
this party were there. Tbe rebels seem to have

A Heeling was held on Saturday evening
at Wilkins' Hall, tot the organization of a COM
pay of recruits, who were to be held in service
for the space of one hundred days. The band
was playing martial music, and quite a number
were ecingregated together, in order to enroll
their names W the service of their country dur
ing that brief period. His Honor the Mayor
was elected to preside. lie addressed the audi
ence in a few words, explaining the reason for
Width the company was to be organized, and
impressing on the minds of his hearers a sense
of the danger to which our State was exposed
eh the late invasion. CoL Smith also at
kyor's request, delivered a speech on the
saufernildect. After that the meeting was ad
journed till this (Monday) evening. Although
the meeting was only a preparatory one, and the
drain has been great on our righting material for
the last three Feats, yet quite a number of
your melt were found who enrolled their names
in the detente of our brave Keystone State.

Proclamation of the President.
WASHINGTON', July 9 . — ProclamatiOtk
—Whereas, at the bite session,' Congress
passed a bill to guarantee to certain States
whose Government has been usurped or
overthrown,a republican form of govern
ment, a copy of which is hereto annexed;
and, whereas, the said bill was Presented
to the President of the United States for
his approval, less than one hour before
the sine die adjournment of said session,
and was not signed by him ; and, where
as, the said bill contains, among other
thing--, a Id in for restoring the States in
rebol !.. their prop'er practical relation
in the Union, which, plan expressed the
sense of Congress upon that subject, and
which plan it is now thought fit to lay
before the people for their consideration.
Now, therefOre, I, Abraham Lincoln,
President of the United States, do pro
claim, declare, and make known, that
while I am, as I was in December lag,
ii hen, by proclamation I propounded a
plan for restoration, unprepared by a
formal approval of this bill to be Inflexi
bly ommitted to any single plan of res
toration; and while I am also unprepared
to declare that the free State constitu
tions and governments already adopted
and installed in Arkansas and Louisiana
shall be set aside and set at naught,there
by repelling and discouraging the loyal
citizens whit have set up the same as to
further t fforts, or to declare a constitu
tional competency in Congress to abolish
slavery in the States, but am at the same
time sincerely hoping and expecting that
a constitutional amendment abolishing
slavery throughout the nation, may be
adopted. Nevertheless, lam fully satin
fled with the system (or the restoration
contained in the bill as one very proper
plan for the loyal people of any State
choosing to adopt it, and that I am, and
at all times shall be, prepared to give the
Executive aid and assistance to any mien
people No soon as the military resistance
to the L silted Slates shall have been : up
pt . ( seed in any such State, and the peopit ;
thereof shall have siticiently returned
to their obedience to the s onstitution and
laws of the United Rtutes, in which as
Military Goveinors will he appointed,
with directions to proceed according to
the bill.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal of the
United States to be affixed. Done at the
city of Washington, this Bth day of July,
18c4, and of thc Independence of the
United States, the eighty-eighth.

Complaints of Rebel Deserters—
The Pirate. Semmes
NEW YouF, July 9.—A Herald's head
openers correspondent, of the 7th, says:
Deserters are continually coming Into
our lines, complaining of short rations in
Petersburg. In this respect the siege is
Vicksburg over again. From all Reel .unts
the army and population—not less than
two hundred thousand people —are to be
fed in the two cities, and as the rebel
government has got to feed them or let
them starve, the problem of the siege
cannot be long solving.
Gen. Ledlie, from ill health, has been
compelled to resign.
A Tribune Washington special says: :\
strong pressure is being brought to heat
on Government to demand the rendition
of the pirate Semmes, and the crew pick
ed up by the Deerhound, and that Mr.
Seward will resist the pressure.

returning skirmishers for making signals
to rebels last night from the city. The
rebels are advancing and are now skir

BALTIWORE, July 9, 3:53 P. M.-Our
forces have evacuated Frederick and fall

a position south of the Monocitey. The
Rebels now occupy. Frederick but in what
numbers is not positively known. Be.

seemingly well founded that another re
twl force has crossed the Potomac near
&lward's Ferry and has moved in the
direction of Urbana in what force is not
known. This is supposed to be an effort
to flank us. We arc hourly gaining
strength by reinforcements and will
