Speaking of cottou, the Baiubridge Argils,
of Saturday, says : The present week has been
one ot constant declension and consequent

indisposed to sell at ruling figures and but lit
tle comparatively, is brought to market. Bus-
ines. ot all kinds, in sympathy with the cotton
trade, has almost reached a staud still.
The Mcnroe Advertiser says : The rumor
alluded to in our last issue, to the effect that

Speaking of the Brunswick and ^ Albany
Railroad injunction, the Albauy News, of

junction and dismiss the bill in this case, was
argued last week in Brunswick before
Judge Sessions. The Judge took time to put
liis decision in form, and we have not yet
heard the result, but we understand the par
ties failed to show equity in their cause, uud
that the fate of the bill was sealed,
safely anuouuce that the injunction is dis
solved, and we are not without hope that the
bill has beeu dismissed for the want of equity.

* * * But there was no call for dear gold,
no commercial, fiimucial, or political pretext
to put it up. The party uoorned to keep the
price steady between 133 aud 135 per cont.—
They resolved upon foroing a rise, and to find
their profit iu cornering the supply. They
were repeatedly warned of the diilloulties iu
their path, which any other act of operators,
less reckless and unscrupulous, would have
appreciated and kept clear of. They boldly
set the public opiniou and the publio good, in
the midst of a season of aotivo trade, at defi
ance. They contemned the power of tho Gov
ernment to protect its own oredit, and chal
lenged tho wholo resources of the Treasury to
a eontest which could only end in discomfi

most ignonmiiously, and with tho bitter ro

♦ • • A decline set in, which the
conspirators strove by the most reckless pur
chases to avert, but without effecting a more
than temporary check iu the downward
movement of the market. On the heels of this
came tho cheering news from Washington
that the Secretary of the Treasury had ordered
the sale of four millions of gold to-day, with
discretionary power to increase the amount
indefinitely, aud had directed the purchase of
Governments to a like amount. This demon
stration from the Treasury Department, forti
fled by the representation that the President
himself strongly approved tho measure, broke
down tho combination. The operators for a
riso were powersis to stem the tide; iu a few
minutes the prico of gold tumbled headlong
from IG2 to less than 133, aud the majority of
the members of the Gold Ring were hopeless
ly bankrupt.

Talk of gambling at laro, kc-no, rowje d noir,
or in any other professional way! Why,
Wall street gambling in gold and stocks beats
all in recklessness and viciouftness. Tho ex
citement on tho street yesterday showed
the desperate menus to which tho gold aud
stock gamblers will resort to pluck tho unwary,
tho merchants, and even their own fraternity.
Four millions of gold is not such a very
large sum, aud would uot, under ordinary
circumstances, probably, greatly cliango tho
market value of the precious metal or stocks;
but coming at such a jnneturoit had the effect
of breaking up tho gambling combinations.—
Thou these Wall street men knew that the
Secretary of the Treasury had an immense re
serve behind, which he might draw from at
any time to checkmutc a iy further operations.

Head quart's Fibst Militaby Dihtbict,
Richmond, Sept. 29, 18G9.
Honorable Secretary of War, Washington D. C.
Siu—Tho question of eleettou of Senators in
tho Congress of the United States by the Leg
islature, which assembles in this city on tho
Gth proximo, is ono of great present iutorest iu
the State, and many applications havo been
made for a decision upou that point. The
subject appears to be so free from difficulty
that I have not hesitated to express tho opiu-
, unofficially, that tho election of Senators
s authorized and necessary to complete the
reconstruction, au l was prescribed by the law
of July 25th, 18G5; but that it wus not proper
for me to make a decision upou a question
that addressed itself so directly to tho dis
cretion of tho Legislature after it was organ
ized.! i
Thero are many, however, who are ot the
opinion that this action is in some way re
strained by tho opinifffi of the Attorney Gen
eral of August 28th, 18G9, aud I hayo the
honor to request that tho question whether
the Legislature of this State is authorized to
elect Senators of the United States at the ses
sion which commences ou tho Gth of next
month may be submitted to the Attorney Gen
eral for his opinion.

Mime explunutiunta were made to liis Excel-
lency respecting the character of those by
whom ir was put forth, and the purp.
the general tnov. nient of which it was
ponent part. The President said that he had
read the address referred to, aud so far us I
understood our local affairs, ho thought tl
policy advocated in it was "right und proper.
He thought discriminations on account ot par
ticipation in the rebellion should now cease,
and referred to tho fact that, acting upon thi*
ides, ho had ‘ afforded the pcoplo of Virginh.
and Mississippi an opportunity to throw over
board the obnoxious clnuses of their Constitu
tions” enforcing such discriminations.
He suid care should bo taken to avoid di
vision among tho Republicans such as happen
ed iu Tennessee; hut he thought th* id*
vocated in tho Wheeling uddre.ss wero "about
right.” Being asked if he had nny objection
to having liis approval of those ideas made
known, ho replied that it would bo improper
I for him to Interfere in any way in our local
| politics; and ho did not want to be mixed up
with I hi ui. But this expression ot his views
having been thus drawn from him without tho
slightest thought on his part of interfering or
volunteering advice, wo feel that there con bo
no impropriety iu stating tho main point of
the conversation as wc have done, viz: That
President Grant’s attention had already been
attracted to the Liberal Republican move
ment in this State, aud that ho regards it with
decided favor, as being in consonance with his
own ideas and political nets; and that whilo

Gold.
Tho events of the past few days in the gold
market have furnished a stronger argument
than auy which could be written with the
pun or uttered with the tongue upon tho
ot our present double currency, and in favor
of a return to specie payments. Whilo gold
is the medium of exchange in foreign coun
tries with which wo trude, and whilo tho in
terest upon our public debt is payable in that
kind of money, it must continue to form
indispensable and a v.-iy important part of
circulating medium in our great commercial
seaports. But it circulates in so narrow and
confined a channel that its course is easily
watched by thoRo who speculate upon its fluc
tuations ; and not only that, but the greatest
facilities aro afforded by the same circum
stance lor damming its current and prevent
iug it from performing its legitimate function
in facilitating exchanges and in the payment
of duties.
Within a few days past we havo witnessed
an operation of this kind and a constqnent
rise in the price of gold from 1 35 to 1 G24,
the price touched yesterday morning. This
was the work of a small clique or ring of un
scrupulous gold gamblers, who have seized
upon a timo wheu our merchants hud rather
more than the usual necessity for gold for the
payment of custon s and foreign balances to
create a corner in that metal, und thus mako
the entire foreign trade of the country tribu
tary to their money-getting schemes. The
order of the Secretary of tho Treasury yester
day to sell four millions • f Government gold
si ut it tumbling from 1G2 t to 133, ami some
< t the speculators prohal .y failed to get from
under iu time io save themselves from the
oflvot of its bill, the notorious Fisk being
m*‘iitioi)cd as oi.o of 'no victims.
Wu an well pleased at their calamity, uml
only fear that it has not been sufficiently gen
eral or severe, while on tho other hand it is
difficult to estimate the extent to which honest
and legitimate business must have suffered.
This, however, is one ot tho natural renult* of

Attobney General’s Office, 1
September 25, 1869. J
T7ic President,
Bib—I have tho honor to acknowledge the
receipt of your letter of this date referring to
me for iny opinion a letter addressed to the
Secretary of War by General Canby, dated
September 21th, 18G9, which asks whether the
Legislature of Virginia is authorized to elect
Senators of the United States at the session
which commences on the fifth of next mouth,
and desires that that question may be
submitted to the Attorney General for his
opinion. The general views which I outortain
of tho functions of the Legislature of Virginia,
elected in pursuance of the act of Congress of
April 10th, 18G9, have been already fully indi
cated in an opinion transmitted to the Secre
tary of War, under date of August 28th, 1869,
1 came to tho conclusion that the members
of the Legislature were not required to take
tho oath referred to iu section nine of the
statute of July 19, 18G7, in order to qualify
them to act as such members; that it was com
petent under tho law for the Legislature to
meet, organize and do whatever was required
or allowed by the acts of Congress as prelimi
nary to the reconstruction o the States, but
that it was not competent t< • them to under
take to enact laws or otherv ,sc to assume any
of tho functions of the Government of the
United States, if organiz d without taking the
oath above referred to, or if any of its mem
bers could not or did not take that oath.
Upon a careful consideration I am now o
opinion that the election of Senators, like
votiug upon tho 14th and 15th Amendments
to the Constitution of the United States,
part of the action contemplated by Congress
as preliminary to ft restoration of the State to
its full relation to tho Government of the
United States as one of the States of the
Union. The Senators thus elected would
have no po'wor or authority until the Senate
of the United States should have passed upon
the validity of their action and admitted them
as members of that body under tho act of
April 10th 18G9.
The election of members of tho House of
Representatives was permitted, ami has tnken
place, ami when Congress comes to act upon
the whole question of the reconstruction of
the Stale, it would seem equally proper that
members elected to both branches of the Na
tional Legislature should present themselves
and be ready for admission to scats in the re
spective Houses. The election of Seuators
does not seem to me to transcend tho action
which comes within tho limited and qualified
purposes requisite to reconstruction, but
rather to be essential to tho completeness of
that action, and think that the military com
mander should not interfere with or prevent
it. Very respectfully.
