The Secre tary of the Treasury is reported to have said that he could easily cause a further decline ; but the fall, during the last week, was without any exercise of his power over the market. No gold has been sold by the Treasury for a week past, though, during the previous week, the sum of twelve million weS put into the marketT The Treasury still comniands a large amount of gold. “Money 1 is so abundant in the commercial centresth.it speculation flourishes thofegh re gular business is at a stand.' Speculating f in the city of New York has for a week past been directed strongly to real estate at advancing prices, the auction sales amounting to a quarter of a million of dollars a dayt' This shows not only the abundance of money, but the want of employment for it in any regular business.’ * “Many persons marvel at the fact that the prices of living arc still maintained at the same rate which prevailed when gold-.was *OO. Au actual scarcity of commodities caused by dimin ished production and suddenly increasing con sumption, has been and still is among the causes 1 of high prices, ns well as the redundancy of paper currency. But prices tend downwards, and must decline very sensibly, even without any reference to the success of any scheme of contraction. Hundreds of thousands of men, lately in anus, and consumers, must now become producers, and, besides these the. vast r current of immigration brings daily accessions to our means of production. “Dry goods, both foreign and cToffierfie, have fallen heavily—wholesale prices having declined , 20 per cent. —during the past week. TheSouth- i ern demand for godds, whielfwas so brisk during a few months following the close of the > war, has subsided, and the supply has exceeded the inches of pa yment. The South has nearly 1 exhausted ihe resources wliifh remained to it, J after the war in cotton, tobacco, naval stores, , etc., and (lie. prospect of production for 180(1-7 ■ is far from being good. “Some, business men anticipate a general de- j dine ot prices, and as a eonseq hence of it, aeon- f traction of bank loans which will fall with se- 1 verity upon bank debtors. Banks are generally ! i increasing instead of diminishing tlioir loans. , The loan line of the New York city banks before < the war was a hundred and twenty millions, 1 and if, is now two hundred and forty millions, though legitimate business is falling off. When j the banks shall, from prudential reasons, eon- 1 tract their loan line, everything upofi wliielf j these loans are based will suffer a great decline in price.” ] ■/ ■ Ashamed op Tlis Position. -Major IT. C. Lawrence, agent of the Freediuen’s Bureau at Fayetteville, North Carolina, writes to a friend ■ . • in Washington City a strong letter opposing the continuance ofliis bureau, against which lie arrays a list of powerful objections. His letter m closes thus: “ I felt ashamed oi myself as an American, and for my Government, when, a few days ago, Judge Buxton,'of the Supreme Court of this State, called at my office to inquire'as to the extent of the jurisdiction- he would he per mitted to exercise in a term he was about to hold.” Major Lawrence is plainly a friend to free government. Here is another hard lilt. He ft r •' Bfe. m. ‘‘ If a State should establish such a judicial. BBT*' system, I think the Federal Government might ell he called upon to enforce its guaranty'of , pllblieji., Cweeniineni to t1,,. ~| tl,:,t MM' r itftte.”' ' ._ M ‘■'"‘■No language could better describe the in ( compatibility of such a bureau with our form Jgt- °f government. _ , y > Ai it-.. Scene.- On Tuesday ijight up af feeling scene occurred at Dowling Hall, Terre IS Haute. McKean Buchanan, with His daughter, B Miss Virginia Bnelianan, have been playing there for a short time, and on that evening the W play of Hamlet was to be presented, Miss Vir ginia appearing a6 Ophelia. On the fall of the SF, curtain in the second act, .after the audience ltad a • been kept waiting some fifteen minutes, it was IT announced that in consequence of the danger ous illness of her mother, Miss Virginia would not appear, and if the play was continued the part of Ophelia would, of necessity, have to be omitted. The audience, if not satisfied, were granted permission to take their money and retire, but the unanimous voice was “go on.” The curtain ■ rose and Hamlet coiuqjouced, his soliloquy, “To tie or not to be.” Blit Mr. Buchanan had not proceeded through half a dozcu lines when his faltering voice broke, and falling into a chair he exclaimed —“ My wife is dying—take your money—l cannot play !” and f r the audience slowly and sadly dispersed. ' ' - v ' An Embarrassing Incident. —A fat young damsel at an entertainment, was suited near the L stage, and many eyes attentively rested on her *; 4 many charms, not the least of which was her liair, which was arranged in a very large and gorgeous “ waterfall,” ,with a perfect cascade of curls pendant from each side. Suddenly those who had fixed their admiring L eyes on her noticed a decline in the “rich sable wreath of hair," and soon .the bonds of. hair pins and comb being sundered, It slid gracefully down her back, when she seized it and tucked it under her hood. But her efforts, alas ! were in vain. A second time the lovely adornment broke loose from the moorings, and the wjiole Kl ‘stately fabric of “whirlpool, curls, rats and hair pins, rolled from her shoulders and into r the lap of a modest and timid youth behind her. Astonished beyond measure, yet preserving his self-possession, lie passed the article over her shoulder, his face suffused with blushes. She received and pocketed it, among remarks from unmannerly boys of “put bvfßome glues *"how rs 1 • are you, Jerusha?” “tie it on,” and other cx l V pressions “of a like similarnesA” f Springfield Republican. J Amusing Incident. —An amusing incident is told of a woman in England, whose husband, a wealthy man, died suddenly without leaving any will. The widow, desirous of securing the i \ whole property, concealed Jier husband’s death and persuaded a poor shoemaker to take his place while a will could be made. According ly, he was closely muffled in bed, as if very sick, iftld a lawyer was called to write the will. The shoemaker, in a feeble voice, bequeathed half of all the property to the wiaow. “ What shall be done with the remainder ?” asked the lawyer. “ The remainder,” replied he, “-I give and bequeath to the poor little shoemaker across the street, who has always been a good neighbor and a deserving man,” thus securing a rich bequest for himself The widow was thunderstruck with the man’s audacious cun ning, but did not dare expose the fraud, and so . two rogues shared tlie estate. ’ ' A Newspaper. —lt was Bishop Horn’s own' opinion that there was no better moralist thnu the newspaper. He says: .jj, * The follies, vices, and consequent miseries of multitudes, displayed in newspapers, are so many beacons continually burning to turn oth ers from the rock on which they have-been ship wrecked. What more powerful dissuasive from suspicion, jeftloufcy and anger, than the story of one friend murdered by another in a duel V What caution more likely to be effective against gambling and profligacy, than the mournful re lation of au execution, or the fate of a despair ing suicide ? What finer lecture on the-neces sity of economy, than the auction of estates, houses and furniture ? Only take a newspaper, and consider it well, pay for it, and it will in struct thee. tI An Amusing Mistake.—Many of opr Nor thern brethren enjoyed a rather unenviable no toriety in days That are past, for helping them selves to things that did not belong to them.. The announcement in a household that “Yan kees” were coming, was the signal fat hiding. Os course the.little children soon learned to look upon their approach With terror. The other day, two gentlemen North, ajfrived in our county, and stoppeda comfortable hoine stead near,the court house. ..They were on the lookout for land, and it being late, they were invited to stay-all night. In'gbe morning,: after breakfast, they walked .-into the garden, and were examing around. The quick eye of one of the children was on the “Yankees” all the time. She remembered old times. At length she suddenly lftn into the house, and dtcosting her sister Jennie', broke out: “They, are steal ing all the onions fn the garden !” \Eredencjpkmy Herald, 6th.

INTERESTING ACCOUNT OF THE EX CITEMENT. %~ , m PREPARATIONS TO REPEL THE INVA DERS. [From the New York Time* of the 10th. Ottawa, Canada, Friday, March 0. Up here in the woods we begin to feel the tea-pot tempest that seems to be disturbing your mercurial people. You already know that the Government has ordered out a large force to defend, If need be, the New York and Michi gan borders—that arms are glistening in the pale March sun, and bright uniforms are astounding 3the urchins of all our great towns. The ice is our tender point. That once bro ken up, we do tear invasions, but who knows when the hot-blooded Fenians of New York may pounce upon us by ft night’s march over -theaolid! surface of these narrow rivers ? * It‘ is certain thatffis soon as the ice breaks up, the Home GotfcyUWnt willl 'send large rein forcements to the , stations from Quebec to Mackinaw, and every reasonable precaution will by taken’to repel assault. , The Government buildings and all the banks in Ottawa have been placed under military guard at night. Tfyere'has been a most enthu siastic response throughout Canada to the call Tor volunteers, find ten thousand nieii are al ready ruarchiug toward the frontier. Parliament has been called to mopt on the lbthtff April. * . . Npva Scotia and New Brunswick Will trnme ktMittelV acciale to a confederation with the Cana dian Provinces, and a common tariff will be enacted, to include Newfoundland, and "perhaps Prince Edward’s Island. English guftfioats have been ordered to the fishing grounds jn view of the abrogation of the Reciprocity Treaty. These facts show that we are not quite so dormant as you Yankees believe. It may je that Canada will be swept away by a grand coup ile main, but not by the demagogues who engi neer your so-called Fenian movement. Montreal, Friday, March 9, The excitement so suddenly sprung upon ns yesterday bv the Government’s call lor Jen fSmwand volunteers, is not peraoptibly abated. You mercurial Americans, who explode at the mere supposition of a great event, do not ap preciate our coolness. We must have tip-top of excitement before our sluggish Wood cgn be-starred, but whim it ii stirred it is not ■ easily cooled. •Since my advices to you yesterday which, by the way, I undertake to guess were the only real facts concerning the great fight that reach ed the New York papers—no very significant event has occurred. The agents ol your Ameri can Associated Press will read you a synopsis pf tlie real and supposed intelligence, at their disposal, I .and I merely subjoin their dispatches, without vouching for anything. In ibis city there is a peculiar state of feeling. As I said yesterday, but a small portion oi our population would, under any circumstances, side with the Fenian movement. Consonant with the .Ticiion ol your Roman Catholic hierar chy, the magnates of tlie Church in these Prov inces have set their faces against the movement, and some oi l hern have, spoken very freely in opposition. I hear that the Archbishop oi Quebec, the, actual head’ of the Church in all British America, will probably very soon ex press his, condemnation of tlie Fenian move ment. His Grace may readily be excused from earlier attention to the matter, for it is scarcely possible that a dozen Fenians can be found in all Canada below this city. In this’town the fever has some curious and ludicrous phases. The much-courted and polled accession refugees (while I liey laid money) who are yet lingering here, and dis mill I v longing for some general amnesty that ugiy give them leave to revisit the scenes from which Ihcy so cowardly fled, are now looked upon with suspicion. The people who follow ed Gregory and Laird in coddling these luen, are suddenly oonseious-sinittcu, and find that I lie lovely innocents di llic was-to-be Southern Confederacy, are elephants of'huge propor tions, whose sayings and doings lor the. past four years are returning witli compound inter est, and making this Canadian Government but little better than that in London, so tar as the United States arc concerned. it is a singular phase of national history, that while the United States Congress seems kindly disposed toward an extension of the recipro city treaty, by. which these Provinces have gain ed such immense advantages, tlie provincial authorities are raising men to repel an expect ed invasion from tlie States. From various sources, some ofnot very trust- 1 worthy character, the following rumors are < aaUuTi‘,l: * Toronto, C. W., Thursday, March 9. ‘ The crisis lias arrived. All the Canadian mi litia are being’enrolled, and it is expected they •will be called out immediately. Volunteers in companies and squads arc rallying from all the back towns for the defense of the frontier. i Two thousand volunteers arrived here last night 1 and avert* 1 filleted on the citizens. The people i are fully aroused and uo man shirks duty, al- 1 though a few have been arrested through a mis- 1 conception of the order calling them out. All i the railways on the line of tlie frontier are keep- t iug engines fired up to run off trains. It is es- t timated that 30,000 troops are now armed, and l ready to march if invasion takes place. Tlie i authorities are sanguine of their ability to drive t back and defend their homes against, any Fenian invaders. All the troops have been drilling i since 2 o’clock this morning. A full supply of - has been-issued to the troops, and ( the railway trains are made up and ready to move at a moment’s notice to any point of at tack. Many reports are current, and one, pretty ( generally credited, is that Parliament will be called to assemble immediately, and that the 1 writ of hnkxsuj corpus will be suspended and ( martial law proclaimed before the I Vt h of March. The Government lias taken possession of the Montreal telegraph line. Toronto, Friday 9 — 3,‘p. m. The Globe this morning makes the announce ment that the Government. lias received infor mation that on St. Patrick’s Day a number of Fenians will cross the river, join in the proces sion in the cities, and create some local distur bances to attract the attention of the military, white the main force will strike at different points on the frontier. The Globe calls upon President Johnson to interfere. It says : “The people of'Canada are abundantly able to give the ruffiansa warm reception, but it is a poor repayment to the Canadian Government for its action during tlie rebellion in the Southern States, to.be now compelled to spend money and blood in resisting outrages planned in the States of five neighboring Republic. The city papers this morning contain two columns of special dispatches from all parts of Canda, giv ing news pf military preparations, from which it appears that every town and city is turned out in full strength. Troops werearriving last night from the Interior towns, and were billeted on the citizens. Ten of them were billeted upon alleged Head Centre Murphy. As fast as the troops arrive they are organized into battalions. They are to be drilled five hours per day. To day there was a turn out en masse of the citi zens, to make a demonstration of strength. From the alacrity with which the call has been answered, it seems that, annexation to the United States, and all other differences of opin ion, succumb to the danger of the hour. The excitement is hourly increasing. The troops are held in readiness for immediate embarkation. Volunteers get twenty-five cents and rations per day. Tlie Orange Watchman , of to-day, > says that the Fenians of this city will walk on ' St. Patrick’s Day armed with pikes and revol s vers, and it calls upon the Mayor to prevent ’ their walking. It is believed that the influence l of peace-loving Catholics will restrain the more f violent men, and that the processions will be s abandoned. The Watchman also asserts that - Bishop Lynch has declared his intention of > leaving Canada, to avoid the danger and respon ' sibility of a battle which may take place on the Irish National day. 1 H Toronto, C. W., Friday, March 0,5, p. m. The response yesterday for volunteers from all parts of the country was very enthusiastic. A much larger number offered their services than was -required. The Globe to-day has a re port that the plot of the Fenians is for a body of them to cross into Canada to take part in the public processions on St. Patrick’s day, and to disturb the peace , and distract attention while ahned Fenian bands will make raids on the borders. Montreal, Friday, March 9. The call for ten thousand men of the Cana dian militia lor active duty, made on Wednes day evening, was enthusiastically responded to, and early on Thursday morning news was re ceived from all parts of the country that their quotas were ready for active service at a mo ment’s notice. There seems to be no doubt that three or four times the number could be had at a day’s notice. The whole volunteer forc-e of this city paraded last evening. Strong guards were posted at all the armories, and patrols kept moving through the city all night. Every preparation is being made to guard against any Fenian surprise. 1 One of our papers says that “ there is a acar , .city pf arms and ammunition here other than purely military, and the customs order prohib ing importations from abroad shuts us out from the American market, where supplies can be most readily obtained. The Finance Minister might grant licences to import to reliable per sons, on reasonable conditions to prevent an evil use being made of the privileges.” The Montreal Gazette , of Thursday, says: “ Last r evening, in addition to the different guards at the armories from the Chasseurs, there was; also* a main guard at the Central Fire a Station, Craig street, and patrols about the streets anti at the different banks after twelve o’clock. Toronto, Friday, March 9—B p. m. The excitement is unabated in the Province. Troops are still pouring in from the rural dis tricts by hundreds. The moment they arrive thpyj-e into companies and squads So great has bfen the drain upon some,of tiie large business in the city, that they have been compelldflftp suspend buiness durintr drill hours. ' . . News from the frontier indicates no cause for. v movement, but the military anffitfUies ala the Whole people approve the action of tbe Government hi preparing for an emergency. Many assert that this hubbub is got op for political reasons) to unite the oppo< sing factions to a sense of their danger, so that the annexationists may be silenced,-and con federation carried next montli in Parliament. — This alarm being sounded so soon after the meeting of the Governors in Montreal is sig nificant, and the belief that the calling out of volunteers is lor this purpose is hourly tajriug hold of the public mind. It is singular that, no troops have been sent to the frontier, notwith standing that all the military forces were called from beds yesterday morning at 2 o’clock. If this be the real object of the Government, it will probably be successful, fin* all parties seem to have forgotten their political differences, and rally for united and determined defense. Hamilton, C. W., Friday, March 9. From eight to ten thousand volunteers have responded to the call of the Canadian Govern ment. The excitement is increasing and volun teers are constantly drilling, and hourly expect to be ordered to points ou the frontier. Nothing definite is know as to the information in the possession of Government which prompt ed this aetion, but the wildest surmises are still ■ indulged. The feeling throughout Western Canada runs very high, and displays a determination to op pose any enemy, from whatever quarter he may come. It is believed that the regulars in Toronto, Hamilton and London, are under orders, but no movements have yet taken place. [From tlic New York World, March 10. Washington News. Washington, March 9. THE DEFEAT OF THE APPORTIONMENT AMEND MENT. The Senate, to-day, defeated the constitutional amendment proposing a new basis of represen tation, and came very near rejecting it by a ma jority. Nine Senators were required to secure the requisite two-thirds vote. The vote stood twenty-five for to twenty-two against. The Re publican Senators wiio voted with the Demo crats against it were, Messrs. Brown, Cowan, Dixon, Doolitte, Lane, of Kansas, Norton, Pomeroy, Stuart, Sumner, Van Winkle, Wiley, and Yates. Senator Fessenden, in the closing debate on the question, devoted about an hour to Stunner, whom he reviewed in a most scath ing manner, politically and personally. He held up to the Senate, with a very lively sense ot ridicule, the absurd metaphor and scholastic platitudes ol' tiie impracticable and theoretlca: Massachusetts Senator. He denounced his pro positions as visionary, his eloquence tie a myth and bis speeches as a sham; adding, that if tt member of Parliament read a speech from proof-slips, he would be coughed down by hi indignant fellow-members. Mr. Fessenden had collated several pages of Sumner’s insane rhet oric, which he read to the intense amusement of the Senate and the galleries. The Senate, without regard to party, relished this castiga tion ; and when the Maine Senator had finished, .Sumner was so completely annihilated, that he barely had sense enough left to say nothing. THE HOUSE PROCEEDINGS. The civil rights bill receded almost a death blow in the House to-day. Even Bingham, of Ohio, denounced it as unconstitutional. It was recommitted to tlie Judiciary Committee, where it will probably slumber forever. A more wicked piece of legislation was never attempted before in the American Congress. The House considered for the rest of the day the recipro city bill, and the protectionists triumphed on the coal interest by placing a tax of one dollar and twenty live cents on each ton of bituminous coal. The bill placed the tax at fifty cents.— The vote was so close that it mavyet he reversed wlien final action is had on the bill. Thad. •Stevens desires an early adjournment of Con gress, and will on Monday move that the House hold night sessions. Some of the. Western members, it is said, favor a recess from May Ist to August or September. [From tlie New York Times, March 10. Washington, Mareli 9, 1860. INTERNAL REVENUE. Upon inquiry by Mr. Raymond in the House this afternoon, Air. Morrill, Chairman of tlie Committee of Ways and Means, stated llgu the committee intended at an early day to report a bill upon'(ax and internal revenue, in which vai ions reductions of tlie taxes and duties will "e ended, and especial] v a reduction upon cotton and the income tax. The Commissioner of Internal Revenue has Issued a circular concerning the assessment oi lax On the legacies, distributive shares and suc cessions, as through failure of assessors and assistant fassessors to exercise due vigilance much revenue justly due is lost to tlie Govern ment. W here the whole amount of the person ■aUproperty of an estate payable to legacies or distributive exceeds the sum of *I,OOO in actual value, the same is, subject to duty or tax with out regard to the amount or value of each l<*ga «ey or share, but when the aniquni •!*•..-• , cwfl #I,OOO, no tax Ist ctVarffcanip. IMMIGRATION; The annual report of Mr. Conger, Chief of the Bureau of Immigration, says the propriety and advantage of placing the whole subject of im migration under the charge of officers of the Government have been fully vindicated by the results. Tlie draft of a bill has been submitted to Congress, in order to correct abuses and pre vent, emigrants from being the victim of sharp ers, and who, in addition to being ensnared on their arrival in-this country, arc intimidated in to fraudulent contracts. Tlie total number o passengers who arrived in the United States du ring the year ending December, 1865, amounted to 287,897, of whom 285,939 landed in New York and 3,330 in California. All countries are represented. One hundred and twelve thor. sand were from Great -Britain, and near. l ’ eighty-four thousand were from Germany. PROPERTY RESTORED. Brig. Gen. C. 11. Howard has issued a special order restoring to Mr. Joseph Forrest his pro perty, held by tlie Freedman’s Bureau, in St Mary’s county, Maryland, (except the “Sand Gates Farm,” so-cnlled, of 1,000 acres,’) being nine .separate tracts of land, containing 1,01. acres, more or less, subject to the provisions o’ Circulars Nos. 3, 15 and 20 of tlie Freedmen’s Bureau. PARDONED. It is stated that there have been 2,070 persons pardoned in the State of Virginia, and 482 in North Carolina, by the President, under tie 820,000 clause, since the issuance of the Amnes ty Proclamation. PRIZE claims. It is estimated that the Fourth Auditor’s office has, during and since the rebellion, adjudicated prize claims affecting over 1,200 captured -ves sels. The amount involved in such settlements was about twenty million dollars. TRABCRY MATTERS. . There are in the vaults of the Treasury De partment *14,240,000 in live dollar notes.
