We frequently see garbled extracts from southern papers, which, who separated from the context are liable to misconstruction, conspicuously paraded in their columns and attention directed to them as unmistakable evidence of general disloy ally to the government. It is true that many southern journals, when commenting upon the violent sectional FOR COUNTY TREASURER.

It is equally true, however, that the articles complained of as | d*tes^ofthej25th ult.^haa arrived, ebullitions as a treasonable spirit, were not v -” directed against the government, but, in its eupport, and against those who are seeking to overthrow it by the enactment of laws in violation of the constitution and destructible of the best interests of the country. That the press and people of the 6outh bare not misapprehended the designs attri billed to the class of politicians to whom we have referred, is now shown by testimony proccediug. not from Southern sources, but from the ranks of «*e radicals themselves. The New York Times, edited by Messrs. E-ivracad and Weed, two shining lights in the Republican party, dissecting with a mas terly baud the “ revolutionary programme ” cf the faction led by Mr. Stevens, makes use of tko following language The- age of bostUes and guillotines has passed, but there ic a ne°potism in Congress as infatuated as that •rLIcU ..lined France to weep tears of blood. The ma jority of the House of Representatives has invested a Cun.o.‘*v e of Fifteen with powers which, under the guidance of a Jacobin chairman, iu becoming as odious a; any triumvirate created by despotism. Prtcident Johnson, on whom the confi dence of the Republican party was attested by the fact, the circumstances, atid the unanimity of his election, has been equally emphatic iu his denunciations of the “trea sonable purposes” of the same men who have been denounced by southern papers as enemies to the South and to the restoration ol the old Union. According to the most reliable information we can obtain, the Cotton bad declined a half-penny on the week. Sales of the week, 18,000 bales. Sales on Friday, 8,000; on Saturday, 8,000.

THE PRICE OF GOLD. We are passing through the same phases in the con. troversy regarding the causes of the advance in gold which characterised the similar advance tn*t took place in England after the suspension of specie pay ments by the Bank of England. There waa no per ceptible advance for about four years after that suspen sion. Gold gradually rose contemporaneously with the increased issues of the Bank of England. It was the most natural of conclusions to connect, as cause and effect, thia rise with those increased issues.— Hence the theory appeared perfectly sound and ra tional that therehad been a depreciation of the currency from an over-issue of paper money. But at the very same time the expenditures of the government had greatly augmented, which accounted in part for the over-issues of the Bank in advances to the treasury. A portion of the increased public expenditure was the payment of subsidies to some of the-continental governments on the renewal of the war after the rup ture of the treaty of Amiens, snd st s subsequent pe riod to supply the milltffy chests with gold for the use of British armies on the Spanish Peninsula. Thia had its natural effect in an increased demand and ad- followicg distifguished Republicans not VBDCe d price of gold. Gold became an article of mer- oniy.fupport the President, but endorse *■ ■«!- hi*-irta£3D8 tor breaking ground with the RS&^Is. Hon. Wm. H. Seward, Hon. Win. .Dennison, postmaster General; Hon. Hugh McCullough, Secretary of the Treas ury ; Hon. Gideon Welles, Secretary of the Navy: Gen. L. D. Cox, Governor of Ohio; Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, and Senators Cowan, Morgan, Norton, Van Winkle, Wi- chandise, having lost its function as a medium of ex change, being superseded according to a law of cur rency. by which paper supplants gold. From the fact that a divorce had taken place between gold snd pa per, the consequence of the suspension of specie pay- ments, the former became a commodity, subject to the law of supply and demand. Its mint or standard price was £3,17 lOJ^d. It rose in value to £4 10s. This immediately gave rise to an ani mated and prolonged controversy, gome of the most gifted of the British statesmen took part in the con test and became divided in opinion, assuming the distinction of Boliionists and Anti-Bnllioniste the ?t5V, Doolittle, Dixon and Stuart—all Repub- I f0 ”? er contending that the whole difference between 1 gold and paper was due to the oter-iasue and depre- caoo. It is believed also that about one- third of the Republican press sustain the President and condemn his opponents. The point on which we wish to fix atten tion is that southern papers are denounced ciation of bank uoteB—the latter instating that no part of the difference waa attributable to the over-issue and depreciation, but solely to t rise in the value of gold. Now, the truth lay here, aa in most controver sies, between the extremes. The parties were both right and wrong. The Bullionists were correct in saying that there bad been a depreciation of the cur-’ rency from excess or redundancy, and were in error as disloyal to the Government for criticising in denyiDg that any part of the effect was attribute- r , , . , I ble to a rise in the value of gold. The Anti-Bullion- tuC Co.iUuu. Ol men who are looked upon I iats were correct in assigning a part of the result of with distmst and suspicion by leading men * the differenC4510 the extra demand for of their own party and who refuse to co operate with them in tbeir raids against the Constitution and the integrity of the Union. The journals complained of here never said a word against the Government, and they have not left the country in doubt as to what they propose for the future. They have time and again declared their accept ance of the issues of the war and their inten tion to abide by them in good faith. But of this the northern .papers referred to make no mention—to do so woold expose their ne farious work of deception. The prophecy made by Daniel Webster in a speech deliver ed neas^r t^gnty years ago bears peculiar .eigmffcaMjfe jff this day: “Tf these fanatics a^*Swfi^p§5sts ever get^wer into their haB&fcqjqjf'rwill override the Constitution, set tho Supreme Court at defiance, change and make laws to suit themselves. Finally, they will bankrupt the country, and deluge it with blood." A Northern paper mentions that the Hon. James Johnson, late Provisional Governor of Georgia, who is now in Washington, says the condition of affairs in that State is very far from b.ing as satisfactory as w^en the civil government was first restored. He speaks ol the Freedmen’s Bureau as an ab solute necessity, both for the Union men and the b.acks, and that it ia very important that more troops be sent into the State at cnce.. Guv. J. C- Pbmbebtos.—This distinguished gentleman, who was in command of the de- f.-nses of Vicksburg, at the time ot surrender of the city, is at present in Faquier county. Toe Warrenton Sentinel says he designs pur chasing a farm in that county. Tax Fbxedkes is Kxstocst—Brigadier General FisX Aasuiaot Commissioner of the Freedman's Bu reau for the Statea at Kentucky and Tennessee, writes to General Howard that ths affaire of the Bureau are progressing more favorably in Tannaeaee than Ken* tacky. The freedmen of the latter Stats are very gen erally disposed to enter into labor contracts for wages or a shirt of the arop,«ndmost of them prefer to re main in their native State to emigrating elsewhere— On the part of alarge majority of the whites, he be lieves that there ia an honest desire to adjust, on a fair baeii, the new relations arising from hie abolition ot slavery; but the Bureau is not a popular institution among them. They regard its presence among them aa unauthorized, denounceitaoffldala aa usurper* and derpote, and clamor for its immediate removal from tho Utaia. ' • the difference to the extra demand for gold, and were of course in error in denying that any part ot that re- eult waa attributable to the over-issue of paper money. The explanation ia so simple that we are surprised that it was mined. Both causes, over-issue and a more than customary demand for gold, had an agency in the result and this was the consequence of the sus pension of specie payments by the Bank of England, by which gold became a commodity or article of mer chandise. The very same controversy has been revived in this country. We may be said to have a Bullionist and an Anti-bullioniet party. The moat ingenious deliver ance of the latter is a lecture recently given in the city of New York, by Silas M. Stilwell. a man who pos sesses a considerable knowledge both of facts and principles. Mr. Stilwell seta out like the Anti-bullionists, with a bold denial that there has been any depreciation of the currency or that there can- be any redundancy, and, like that party, assigns the whole effect of a change in tbe value of gold to an alteration in the relation of de mand to supply. From the tenor of hia remarks, it might be concluded that the phrase “ depreciation of the currency" was a solecism in language. The sole circumstance to which Mr. Stilwell attributes the rise of gold is the excess of our imparts over oar exports, tbe balance being payable in that metal. Now while we are not disposed to deny tbe influence of this cause in advancing the price of gold, we are bound to look also to the fact of the redun dancy of the currency; nor can we overlook the in fluence of the heavy public expenditure in augmenting the volume of paper money. It is to tbe double agency of a redundant currency and a more than equal demand for gold coin to pay duties on imports and tbe interest of the public debt that we assign the causes of the difference between gold and paper. How much of the effect is assignable to tbe former and bow much to the latter it would be impossible to say. We are satis fied, however, that much the largest share li attribut able to redundancy of paper money. — Tbe tickets to tbe open ball In New York ere said jo be about the size of an ordinary window shutter. — A Faria correspondent writes that Fittihaa ac cepted an engagement at St Petersburg, at £400 ($2, 000) a night COUNTY TREASURER.
