The Confederate and Federal armies make no
movement to either aide of the Potomac.

Tha Confederates have made Winchester, in the
Shenandoah Valley, their head-quarters.

The news from Kentucky is confused and con-
tradictory. General Buell, and not General Bragg,
appears to have entered Louisville.
The President's proclamation for emancipating,
on the Ist of January, the slaves in all States then
in rebellion is severely canvassed and generally
disapproved.
In a proclamation of the 24th Mr. Lincoln re-
iterates the penalties against the crime of discou-
raging enlistments, and suspends the habeas corpxs
in all States and districts declared to be under mar-
tial law. In a third proclamation, dated the 26th,
he nominates a Provost -Marshal-General of the War
Department, whose head-quarters are to be at

or more special Provost-Marshals in every State of
the Union, whose duties are to be to arrest all

enjoined by the War Department.

a call upon the country for a new and reserve force
of half a million of men, in addition to the late
levies of 600,000.
Rumours of a change in the Cabinet continue to
prevail. Mr. Poward Everett is spoken of as
Secretary of State, to replace Mr. Seward, who
would prefer the Embassy to England. Mr. Charles
Sumner is also mentioned as a candidate fur the
last-named appointment.
The premium on gold is 201 per cent.

M. FOULD'S FINANCIAL RERORT.
PARIS, OCT. 9.

The Moniteur of this morning publishes a report
addressed by M. Fould, Minister of Finance, to the
Emperor on the financial condition of the Empire.
M. Fould says

" The adoption of the measures I proposed to your
Majesty in January last has enabled me to draw up
the Budget for 1863 with a surplus on the revenue
of 8,360,041 f. The result for the first six months
of 1861 was an increase of 50,000,000 f. The
revenue yet to be expected during 1852 will enable
us to provide in 1863 for any supplementary ex-
penses caused by the Mexican Expedition."
The Minister continues :

" I can confidently state that the balancing of
the public revenue and expenditure is assured for
1863."

M. Fould then gives a tabular statement of all
the supplementary credits to be granted for 1863,
and enumerates the sources whence they are to be
provided. It results from this statement that the
financial year of 1862 will add nothing to the
amount of former deficits.

The deficit on the Ist of January, 1862, reached
the amount of 1,024,503,000 f. This amount has
been reduced to 867,000,000 f. by the results of the
conversion of the 4i per Cent. Rentes.

Here follow details relative to the conversion,
tho oruount luala into the
Treasury on account of the conversion of the 42
per Cent. Rentes is 157,631,289 f.
392,368,850 f. of 41 per Cent. Rentes are still in
circulation. Half of this amount has not been con-
verted because the holders are prevented from so
doing by legal obstacles. The remainder cannot
prevent the rise of the Three per Cent. Rentes,
the quotation of which now regulates our public
credit.

M. Fould further says—
" The principle aim of this financial operation has
already been attained. The re-classification of the
Rente appears complete, and the evidence of this
is to be found in the statistical details of the opera-
tions which the departments, through the medium
of the chief revenue collectors, are making in con-
junction with the Treasury.
" The conversion has had considerable influence
n all other credit securities, and has facilitated
the execution of great public works."

The report then states that 675,160 Obligations
Trentenaires have also been presented to the Trea-
sury, and the greater portion of them exchanged
for Three per Cent. Rentes. 70,542 of these Obli-
gations only remain in circulation.
M. Fould's whole financial statement may be
summed up as follows :
" The amount of the deficits previous to 1862
has been reduced by 157,000,000 francs. The year
1863 will commence with a reserve which is esti-
mated at 80,000,000 francs, which is destined to
provide for unforeseen events."

M. Fould concludes by giving assurances that
the budget for 1864 will contain no arrangements
liable to cause any increase in taxation.

The liloniteur also announces that the Emperor
arrived last night at St. Cloud.

ST. PETERSBURG, OCT. 8.

The Journal de St. Petersbourg of to-day replies
to the article published by the Journal des Debate
of the 28th September, on the position of Russia
towards Poland. It demonstrates that this article
erroneously appreciated the treaties of 1815; and,
after recapitulating the text of these treaties, coo.-
eludes as follows :

The progress of the Goveinment responds to the
duties which are traced out by its international
obligations, and its solicitude for the prosperity of
the kingdom, and to the necessities of the harmoni-
ous development of the whole Empire in the path
of progress opened by the enlightened initiative of
the Sovereign.
