The advices from America by telegraph cause
Mme uneasiness in financial circles. The nomina-
tion of General Grant for the next Presidency at
im early a period, it is thought, is intended to give
BoPport to President Johnson. The nomination,
ee"Pled with the President's threat that he will not
Permit any effort at impeachment, indicates a spirit
of resistance to the present Congress. Until more
particular accounts are received by mail the public
will be slow investors in the Securities of the United
States Government. Any large amount of these
securities returned to America just now must cause
great embarrassment.
