COAST.
THE PRESSURE IN THE MONEY
MARKET.
New York, Jan. 25.—The following is ad
ditional to the foreign news by the Hiber
nian.
The late gales have been very disastrous
to the shipping. The Resolute, from Mobile
for Liverpool, put iuto Jelay. She was found
to be leaky and had lost her mizzenmast.
The Times aud other journals having at
tributed the pressure in the money market to
too heavy exports to America on credit, the
commercial men publish letters refuting the
argument and showing that remittances from
America have been most prompt. Tiie
heavy receipts of cotton are set off against
the British exports.
The Mountaineer, from Mobile August 27,
has not been heard of since that date.

vice over all routes m Georgia. Adopted.
The following is Mr. Russell's resolution
as passed potb houses of the Legislature-
Whereas, certain Citizens of the State, ow
ners of real estate on the Wilmington,
Whitmarsh and the Skiddiway Islands were
driven by the fortunes of war from their
homes in 1861, and their property seized by
the military and appropriated to the use of
freedmen by the Freedman's Bureau; and
though peace reigns supreme throughout the
State, aud all of said citizens have renewed
their allegiance to the Government of the
United States, yet, deprived of the posses
sion and enjoyment of their property, they
are forced to remain exiles from their homes.
Be it therefore
Resolved, By the General Assembly of the
State of Georgia that his Excellency the Gov
ernor be and lie is hereby earnestly requesl-
ted to communicate with his Excellency the
President and inform him of the distressed
condition of these, our suffering citizens, and
request a restoration of their property on
said Islands, as well as all other property of
other citizens of this Stale, which still is in
the possession or under the control of the
Freedman’s Bureau.
We heartily adopt as our own, remarks
the Charleston News, (and we ditto], the sug
gestions of that manly and truly conserva
tive paper, the Boston Post, that, “upon the
press of both the Northern aud Southern sec
tions of the Union is laid a solemn duty at
this particular juncture. Forbearance now
becomes one of the leading virtues. If the
journals of each section, inspired with a gen
uine desire of' Union, were to make
rule and religiously observe it, to refuse the
repuhlicatiou of whatever lay open to the
imputation of passion, pnrtizanship, preju
dice, and general ill feeling towaids each
other, the new rule would so soon and so
abundantly vindicate itself by its desirable
results as to excite surprise that it was not
adopted before. It is almost as easy to heal
the old wounds of friendship as to stir up
strife and contention. We have become
fully satisfied of the power of vituperation
and calumny, knowing that, if long persisted
in it is able to convulse a nation ot men
styling themselves brethren. The opposite
experiment would now be a grateful one to
all rational beings, to which satisfied honor,
not less than true humanity, urgently invites
us.
“ Even if the Congressional ravings are
kept up, it is in the power of an enlightened
press to neutralize ttieir effect on both sidts.
There must he a manifestation of real kind
ness at some time if the Union is to be prac
tically renewed ; and it will be necessary for
it to begin in influential quarters. The press
has a providential opportunity now to show
its real power- As it will hardly deny that
by its agency a large share of the country's
troubles was precipitated upon us, so it
ought to stand ready, with tiie first break of
the heavy clouds to employ its full power
for the re-establishment of those relations
which have suffered from a temporary dis
ruption. In this iusiauoe the press is per
mitted to show its great influence even nega
tively ; its positive power upon the nation is
a large part of each day’s history.”
The New York Chamber of Commerce has
decided against co-operating in a movement
to call together a National Convention to de
vise measures to increase the production of
cotton in the United States, on the ground
that its cultivation is manifestly so important
and profitable that “the promptings of per
sonal interest will secure the desired results,”
and that “this motive is already attracting
the capital requisite to produce a large cot
ton crop for the ensuing year.” This con
clusion appears to have-hern reached after a
careful investigation of the subjeet, and it
serves to confirm other evidences of the suc
cess of the free labor system in the South.
Thad- Stevens’ sudden anxiety to repeal so
much of the Congressional test oath as pro
hibited Southern attorneys from practising
in the South, created much surprise at the
time, aud has led to much discussidh since
among those not fully in the secret. It seems
that a small caucus of the faithful met at Mr.
Chase’s on Saturday evening, where the
whole subject was informally discussed.
Judge Chase is understood to have said that
the law was clearly against the oath; that
the question now before the Supreme Court
involved the whole principle and must soon
be decided, and recommended the course
pursued by Stevens on the following Monday
as the best method for relieving him from the
necessity of making a disagreeable decision,
and the partf from possessing a most un
wieldy elephant.
The Soicidb of Admiral Pabeja.—This
singular event is thus related ;
Admiral Pareja, commanding the Spanish
squadron off the coast of Chili, committed
suicide on December 3, 1865. He had sent a
vessel, the Covadonga, with despatches to
the Isthmus. She was captured by the Chil
ians. November 26 ; Pareja was informed of
it on the 28tb. On the 2‘Jth, after brooding
some 30 hours over the disgrace, the report
of a pistol was beard in the cabin, and upon
entering, he was found dead, shot by his own
hand, through the right temple. On his
table a paper was found, written in a firm
hand, directing that his body should be sunk
out of the Chilian waters
Masonic Flag from the North Pole,—
The famous Arctic explorer, Dr. Hays, has
returned to the Kane Lodge of New York,
with the Masonic flag which the lodge had
entrusted to him five years ago to carry to
the North Pole, if possible.” The doctor
staled that the flag had been piatfted farther
North than any other except the flag of our
country, and that it had floated within five
hundred miles of the Pole.
It is to be regretted that the gallant Doc
tor could not have hoisted it on the pole it
self. That would have been cool.
^Letter iron Mrs. D«rti.
A most noble enterprise has been inaugu
rated in New Orleans, having for its object
the relief of the family of Hon. Jefferson Da
vis. We understand that Mrs. Dr. Nott,- of
Mobile, will likely be the bead of an organi
zation for Alabama, and that co-workers in
the good cause will be appointed in all the
counties of the State. The family of Jeffer
son Davis should never sufllr as long as
there is a dollar in the South. We find in
the New Orleans True Delta the following
tender and womanly letter from Mrs. Davis.
—The Daily Sun and Times.
Mill View, Ga., Dec. 4, 1865.
T. B. Clark, Bsq., Secretaryfynd Agent Ladies'
Southern Aid Association -
My Dear Sib:—I am in receipt of your
very kind letter in the name “of the Ladies’
Southern Aid Association,” having "for its
object the purpose of placing” me “and fam
ily in circumstances somewhat commensu
rate with their estimate of ” me and mine,
and begging that I will, at my earliest con
venience, designate a place to which the
means so collected may be conveyed so that
they may “safely and satisfactorily” reach
me- -
From our desolated and impoverished
friends I scarcely expected such an expres
sion of material sympathy, though my pow
ers of gratitude have been almost daily tax
ed, to tbauk those who have, with so much
heart eloquence, plead with the President
for him who, though unsuccessful, has given
you, all he could—his best energies—and
whose only hope of future happiness lies in
the sweet trust, often expressed, that he haa
not lost your confidence and love. Ignorant
of all his own people have done for him in
his painful captivity, his devotion is una
bated. “The unfortunate have always been
deserted and betrayed, but did ever man
have less to complain of when he bad lost
the power to serve ? The multitude are si
lent ; why should they speak save to Him
who hears best the words most secretly ut
tered ? My own heart tells me that sympa
thy exists—that the prayers lrom the family
hearth are not hushed. Be loving and con
fiding still to those from whom I have re
ceived much more than I deserve, far more
official honors than I ever desired. Those
for whose cause I suffer are not unworthy of
the devotion of all which I had to give.”—
This is the message of love which is sent
through prison gates to our own people, be
cause both of us have been brought up with
you, one of us was born iu Mississippi,
the other came to her in infancy.—
These are my own people, and it is a
privilege of which no change of circumstance
can deprive me. To the accepted prayers of
our widows and orphans, our suffering and
heroic women, our brave and true men, our
innocent little children ; I look for the resto
ration to.my little children of their agonized
hut Christian father. If a merciful Provi
dence so ordaiu it, we hope to live and die
among you, mutually consoling and bearing
each other’s burdens. I pray God we may
not be driven forth from the home of our
childhood, for how can we siug our own song
in a strange land 7” We would not have our
dear iriends betrayed by their sympathy iuto
offering for our use too much from their on n
“uasket and store.” I aud mine have, so fur,
been miraculously cared for and shielded
from want. We seem ever environed by the
love which is reflected upon us trem that
which lighted my husband iu his dungeon—
softened bis prisoned walls with sunny pic
tures of loving eyes and outstretched arms.
Grief and gratitude seem to impose upon
me silence. I would, but cannot say more.
I will inclose within this note the names aud
directions of gentlemen to whom the countri-
hutions of which you speak may be enclosed.
Aud instead ot the eloquent voice which so
often has poured fourth bisjoyc to his dear
people, I offer a wife’s and mother’s, and a
country woman’s gratitude to you and those
you represent.
I have the honor to he, very gratefully and
sincerely yours, Virginia Davis.

Pleasure Excursion on the O. F. Potter.
On the evening of the 29 ih inst., Captain
Cessar, Mr. R. M. Demer purser, and the
other officers ot the O. F. Potter, which is
now plying from Savannah to Sunberry, com
plimented the ladies of Dorchester and Sun-
berry by giving them a pleasure trip down
the river.
Everything was propitious for the occasion.
The little vessel dashed gallantly o'er the blue
waves, freighted with happy hearts and
bright faces. , None could resist the all-per
vading beauty—for Nature smiled her
sweetest From a quiet little nook, nnper-
ppived. though not unfelt, stole the blind god,
with bended bow and darts invincible.
.■won bashful couples were seen sauntering
from the crowd, low words were murmured,
overheard only by the noiseless breeze or
foaming wave. Music too, lent its charm to
this enchanted scene.
Ob, the happy, careless visions of youth !
We were very favorably impressed with
the swiftness and Deatnesa of the boat, also
the quiet and orderly behavior ot the crew.
As regards politeness, hospitality and an ac
commodating spirit, the officers of the O. F.
Potter bear the palm from all other vessels
with which we have been associated.
Everything that could contribute to our
enjoyment was most courteously tendered
by them, and we trust that they were not
only contributors but partiepators in the
pleasure which they bestowed.

The “Waterfall. ’’—The ladies are fast
discarding the “waterfall” mode of dressing
the hair, and adopting the new fashion, which
consists of coiling the hair behind, in mnch
the same manner as a snake coils itself up
preparatory to the “dormant” season. It
requires considerable ingenuity to dress the
hair in this foshlon ; a “puff,” three-quarters
of a yard long is used, round which the hair
is twisted cable tashioD, and then rolled up
like a huge tail. These coils are already
reaching enormous dimensions, eight inches
in diameter being the average at present.
