In our opini.n, his pa ■ has already given rent to treaaosabh Kent ,■ ltntn sufficient to muzz'e his press. Unless be in- his political course, justice to our caus: will ye*, rs quire such. It will bs wall fortbewhola c.u:.try to understand this clearly. The Repub lican pai ty will not rec.cde a loot, w 11 not yield a jot of its principles, so long as we have suah rase a-; Holden to contend within in our midst. H .Mea and his party seem to be satisfied with the Oon etitetion just as it was up to the time of the first blow 7 upon Fort Sumpter. They tpoak to ua in tubs'ance: If you love and want pe-rce, s'rike hands with ua under the Federal fi igs; enjoyea well as you may oil your rights, and freely grant r.s curs.” Furthermore, this party becomes more bold ; its days of infancy. have passed, and it again pays, in suhstancj: “If you are not satis fied with the rights you could enjoy under the old Constitution, you do not deserve peace.” Ti e cry of this party is peace, peace, and it is i triving to bring it about through the channels of Union meetings. No one would have peace with mere pl usure than toe writer, out it must ba secured with honor to our arms. We mui.t U' a free, separate end independent people.

A SuGGUSTION AIlOl'T TUB CtIRBENCT.—The li eluncnd Whig makes the following suggestion i a regard to our currency; It may be that the Government will be com-' pic ilcd to make a fresh start, iju-ncinlly, issuing, alter atixed future dafo, legal feeder no: es, innda blo A the end of onoor two years ia bonds baur ing four per cent, inlcres', payc.blo semi annually in gold cr cotton. These issues should bn ftm equivalent ol gold in the Confederate States, and jvira and, beyond a doubt, be eagerly souglit alt :t" by all classes. No other notes thould oe issued, ad the present circulation should be reached by persuasive means, such as ottering to nil persons who v.’ili Inad any amount of the present currency exchange oflegal tenders for old Citrrhnhytn the amount of one-third or one-fourth of the sum Ifniidod by them. For example, A would take c' .000 to the Treasury and invest them in bonds, i M ouid then be privileged to pres&if n'rotifer •i* 1,000 or *76o—os the case might be—and receive • n; exchange for them an equal amouiU offfidic tender notes. Os course, he wouW rot - . avt n hints tlf ot ilie privilege ; nor would h ’be • reluctant to make the investment -which would secure this privilege, la this way a largo amount ot the present circulation would be seen withdrawn, and all would ultimately bo absorbed. The issue oi legal tsedeis should be limited lo *OOO 000,(100 at the outside, and all funds required by the Gi vernmont, beyond this airiount, shoftM be raised by leans and taxation. • A Vsßr Dbsiracli: Flack to Rksioe Is.—4jj,- cording to nil accounts, Atlanta must boa vary desirable place for a quiet, orderly, faw-loSrfJt; citizen lo rcsido in.

K. M. T. Hunter, Lloyd*, Va.: m ; : In rcplr *o your inquiries about the Diian re.:' - : v:. a a condensec statement of tbe issu of Treasury notes, and of the funding operations cf t*”- Treasury. You will see from this state ment'that th funding has bleu eminently sac c »u»:u': an l you will learn, also, tnat tbe ami un. i! outstanding 'Treasury notes ia etill witbin i-m-ts of the depreciation which 1 reported to ( :<•; - grers at tbe las. session. My report then eatimn ted the amount of circulation which the country could probably bear, at $150,000,000. 'lhe statement now made, shows that the out staa :ng r-asury notes used a3 general currenty amount almost exactly to three limes this amount. Hut, when it is consideted that a very large por tion of these notes are across the Mississippi, • will be apparent, that in the Atlantic States estimate of three to oae i, rather over than un ■ i toe mark. Two absorbents are now added, wbic: w:;l keep down tbe excess from new issues— namely : the taxes and tbe sale of cotton boner —and when tbe tax in kind begins to contribute its portion to the support of tbe army, there is e 7; ry reason to believe that the currency can bo wc-il susta ned. It is obvious from this statement, that the pop ular notion ot estimating the value of the curren cy by a comparison witn gold, is altogether tslia etoui; for, while he actual volume of curreac, hie only been increased three-fold, its proportim. to gold rates at mere than dcuole that amtnu,. The fact is, as you well know, tha. si .uataa ;i we are, gold is as much a commercial commoa as piatica or tin, and its price is governed .tie law of demand and supply. As I haval«* ■. by sbc nuinthe report reteired to. wheat. >•> afibrJ much more re table stanaard'*.- - r , wben their price is not controlled by eom • • u obi— uotion; and, by referring to these, t; w ,i L» seen tuat the cutrency has maintained itse: at the ratio which the outstanding issues indr a.o. You will perceive, by the statement, that unm ig all the various appliances for lunding, there has fcucs landed in roods $232,404,670; to wbic-., ac cording to estimate, there ts yet to be atide i ftbe-ut $70,000,000 more, which are yet in tbe hands of the Treasury cliicers to be funded, making in ail, about $302,000,000 —add to this b 15,442,000 deposited in tbe live per cent, cu.l 1 an, end wa hr.ve an aggregate of nearly t 3.8,000,000 withdrawn from tae currency. This result is certainly very favorable, cni shows that the m«asarea adopted by Uongreso : :.ve been quite as successful as any of us had r. iticipated. It is simewhat remarkaale that the Yankee Gc vernmer.t should have adopted exactly the same measures lor withdrawing their cirm iation, ana, according to a statement published iu Hunt’s Merchants’ Magazine, for July, they hare iur.ded, m call loans und bonds, not more than $200,000,000. Thau iisurss show that tbete is no reason sos distrust as to onr currency; and if, when Con g.Pss n -:ets, yon will all address yourselves vigo rously >0 ni' asnres wfii li will restrain its further increase, we shall be lully abU to maintain our cause. I won i suggest to you two matters far conf.iderat on. Oae is, the export duty which 1 proposed ; and the other, is a renewal of the c 11 loan for ail Treasury notes, upon the same prin ciple with the six per cent, cull loan, which was reported at the last session. ft is worth tbe experiment to fry, whether by allowing a deposit in the Treasury, on interest,wo ti.ay not be able to attract and retain tfibre at! the “Vi.isary cot.-H not actually required lor circula tion, Very truly, yours, G.

Sale of the lluUsdfi’s Bay Tekeitort.—Two mammoth land eorjffiratUms have gone out of existence time—the most not able ot which we luivu any record. .V lew years ago the .great Ensfejudi-i Company was extin guished, expiring' with the last embers of the Sepoy rebellion ;■ and now the public is sur prised by the uimuwuucmcui that the Hudson's Bay Company isruueng tho tilings that were ; a corporation of which it might be said with al most the same as Edmund,Burke ob served of the ••the commission of the company began in-epnuneree and ended in em- pire.'’ The vast- territory controlled by the Hudson’# Bay company, comprising nearly 1)00- 01X1,000 acres i~jf,reiehing over 1,400,000 square miles, U;Ly been a source ot deep com plaint on the part pit Canadian people for many y, ars, as the iiffef3sts of the company were necessarily to those of civilization and progress. Thfe” Canadians wished to invite omigvation and’ to encourage the construction ol roads, whereasFUe prosperity of the company was dependent upon the prosecution of the fur tiade, and therefore, while these traders ro ll mined in power, it decreed that a large por tion of British Nqrpi America should be re seived for the propagation of wild animals.— Tbe gold diseovcries at Van Couver s island an.l other parts of the NAthwestem coast increased the demand that t-tfisextensive policy should be done away, especially as it is already a cardinal principle in tlie political creed of Canada that an intercolonial rnijji'oad, including a national highway between.botli oceans, is indispensable to the confederation of tiie provinces and tin eventual erectioii’isf“a complete nationality. Os course the- Canadians will be greatly re joiced by (Iteaunourkcment made in theJhitish Parliament on the Ad iust., by the Duke ol Newcastle, when he explained the terms just completed for the mlo oi Lite whole territory to I De international Financial Association 1m .11, £>oo,ooo. As the-naMovouue of this principality has averaged £BO,OOO per annum for many years past, this is mitW extravagant valuatii n. The capital of'tßuMiew firm is fixed at £2,000,- 000, and the Btocfc*Wlll be issued in certificates of £2O each. Aitliougli the greater jpart is a desert of snow, Uieiifis a southern range of land suitable for colonization, watered by aboui lour Idea hundred nnlesxd navigable lake nnd rivers and rich in mines ot coal, lead and iron. It is this po.tion of the‘Ceded territory respecting which the Duke'observed the efforts of the com pany “would be directed to the promotion of the settlement of the development of tho postal and' transit communication being one of the object* io whi*li they would apply themselves. ’Sir Edmund Head, late governor general of Canada, .and a gentleman fully iden tifieil with tho interests oi the province, will be the new governor.' «The Imperial Government it is announcedj’ 'will grant portions ot Un crown land in aid' of the proposed telegraph line over the Mountains, to the gold country on the, Baqiiic coast. A result of tin change of ownership which some apprehended in England, judging from a remark from one of the members of Parliament is Un* transfer c the seat of tlicHarr-tiade from London to New York, as he stud here is reason to believe tbe principal agents ot.liie new company are Amciv cans. . tWU As the Hudson Hay fur trade is of no ordinary importance, New. Yorkers will hope that tin • surmise has substantial foundation.

A jpri : period iiiii elapse before auy'essential progress can be made in Ihe proposed iTdrlts of internal imprOvetbeii Tiie Late John... 13. Floyd.—We ligve. al ready .announced tjje death, at Abingdon. Va., of the distinguished statesman and soldier, Ma jor General JohndL Floyd, lie succumbed to a disease which Uml lor some time preyed upon him, and which -is said to have been induced by his arduous lilbors aud exposures in 11, field. His careef'as a public'mini’did mil co ver a very extended period, but it embraced, and was conceru/r-ij, in, a series of important events. .lolm Jjiichanan Floyd was born in Montgom ery (now Fulaski)-county, Va., in 1805. lie graduated at 8011th Carolina College in studied law, was admitted to the bar in 1828, and in ISoti removed to Helena, Arkansas, where he practiced his profession for two or three years. 111 he returned to Virginia and settled in Washington county. In LS47 lie was elected to the lower -branch of the Virginia Legislature, and re-elected in 184!). in De cember of that year he was chosen Govern/ir, of the State lor tiie, term expiring January Ist, 1853. In 1855 he was again elected lo the Legisla ture. lu 1850 he was chosen a IT-es-dei.lial Elector and vottpil for James Huqh iiiaii, lor whose nomination he had exerted iiiniselj'.at the Democratic National Convention, at Cincinnati and in whose favor, during the contest preced ing the election, he had made many, speeches. .In 1857 he was--appointed by Buchanan, the President of the United States, Secretary of War. in these positions he displayed marked ability and unquestionable courage. Ilis per son, bearing and address were remarkably line, he was a forcible speaker, and a most agreeable companion. The valuable services of .General Floyd to - tbo-Confederate States are too well known, and too Iresh in the minds of his coun trymen to be recounted by us.- The Kouth mourns the hiss of dnother good and true man. It is worthy of "rethar'k, that he died upon the anniversary of her first victory over the" Yan kees, in Western Viqgiuia,— Charleston Mercury. .Fnrsfbi;ooicAt Facts.—The T6Tl6wing phys iological facts _vjrere translated from a French scientilie journal; The average height ot mail and woman at birth, is generally sixteen inches, lu each of the twelve years after birth, one twelfth is add ed to the stature-each year.

They can be as easily fed there as here, and the citizens would guard them it they believed that their confine ment would enable them to remain with safety at their homes. Fill as many of the warehouses as possible in different parts of tho city, distribute the Yan kee prisoners well over the city, and then m lurru Gen. Gillmore that Charleston invites his shells.
