those hereabou.s who are enjoying the pro-
lection Of the American Government, the
while they are ssizing upon every pre'e1s
and inven.ipg every conceivable SANDER, TO
bring the same Government into disreputs,
disgrace, and finally into ruin. A private
letter received By Mr. A. B. NORRIS, OF this
city, from his son, q member OF the %
Regiment, and now at St. Joseph, relates
that soldier went to the door OF private
house to get drink of water. Instead Of
being greeted BY iraught Of the cooling
beverage, young man in the house, drew
revolver upon hin, and snapped 1t at him
three several times-a reception altogether
unexpected. As quick as possible, the SOL
der brought his masket to bear upon his
assailans, and shot him dead. Purely an
act Of self-defense.
Col. Curtis arrested q number Of men
along the line of the Railroad, and at 81.

being 10 arms against the authority of the
United States. Some Of these men have
/ been delivered over to the civil authorities
/ for safe keepiDg-others have been released
/ on parole, snd the remainder are still in
camp as prisoners. The st. Joseph Ga
~ate says Col. Curtis s'manifests no dispo-
stion - interfere with or subvert the civil
to the military power"
The Chicago Tribune has intelligence to
the effect that Col. Curtis, on Monday last,
learning that the secessionists of Savannah,
No., had driven out or imprisoned all the
Union men in the town, proceeded thither
with 400 troops, and after slight scrim-
mage, in which two rebels were killed, put
things to rights, disarmips the rebels and
giving muskets to Union men.
On Monday morning, the soldiers pro-
ceeded to erect the Stars and Stripes over
the Postofice at St. Joseph. "After the flag
was nailed to the staff and hoisted," says
the Ga-ette, "thrse cheers were proposed
for it, after which followed in succession
thsee cheers for WASHINGTON, three for
ABE LINCOLN, and death to the man who
would cut the flag down. Then came three
groans for secession. The last, for some
Of our citizens, was too much to bear with,
and three groans were given for the man
who put the flag up"
"Three groans for the man who put up
the" American flag such is the return
rebels make for the protection and leniency
the Government, has ever evinced towards
them. Baseness reaches no lower depth in

The rebels are gifted with admirable dis

INDUCING in the most blatant boastings of
what the rebel troops would do when they
had chance to meet the Goyernme

influence upon the rebel officers. These
either have some regard for their men, or
some dread of getting into conflict from
which they are not pretty certain of coming

further increase In the bank specie Is conf
IDENTIFY anticipated tomorrow. The Sub.Treasury
has disbhrsed heavily In payment Of interest and
the Mint continues to send coin forward pretty
actively. Last Monday the banks showed the
heaviest specie average ever presented
So, OLE being an increase of $2,5s7, 1922 from
the week previous to morrow it would not be
Surprising i the average reached 81, GOO, 0oo In
the course Of few days, as soon as Congress ma
lures the proposed measures for supplying the
governments with money, It must be expected that
the Sub. Treasury balance will begin to increase
once more at the cost of the banks; but in the
meantime the average must continue to swell.
The bank loans, on the other hand are probably
on the decline still. At this time last year the
loans averaged 1927 ,2Os 2ol, with specie reserve
of $22,464 1885, last Monday the loans average was
$ll2,204 OLA decrease of 81 ,263,62S from the
week previous. The banks will probably find
employment for their means in the negotiation of
government loans. Meanwhile, judicious bank
managers are looking round for new paper or
nameswhich arc not supposed to have been ex.
tensively connected with trade in the West or at
the South. -. -s,=assssyvssssssssSs
The money market continues very inactive.
Call loans range nom four to six per cent, and
the best names, on short acceptances, from six to
seven. No reliable quotation can be given for
second class names. Very few capitalists arc
willing to buy them at all; those who do charge
a very high rate indeed. Failures continue to
occur both among dry goods houses and grooers,
but none of any moment were reported last week.
1t is so generally understood that merchants doing
business with the South have been swindled by
the rogues Of that rebelous region that their sus
pension is expected as q matter of course.
Foreign exchange improved last week. At the
close Of the mail per Kangaroo yesterday, the
asking rates for bankers bills were lO7 for ster.
ling and $50 for francs. There is, however, no
demand for bills from the trade. Bankers are
ready to buy at rates which will permit the i'm
portation of coin, but they are not anxious to sell
their own bills The foreign exchange market
appears to be steadily tending upwards. fla new
tariff reopens the trade in foreign dry goods-now
closed by the Morrill, tarif-exchange will be sure,
this fall, to rise to point which will leave profit
on the expectation Of coin.
The following table shows the course of the
stock market during the past week and month";
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1861-07-08

So far as we have been able to gather public
opinion, it appears to be in the main favorable to
this budget. In the cities no complaint will be
made of direct taxes, or Of the new duty on
tea, coffee and sugar; the public is ripe
for direct taxation, and there never could
be better time for trying the experiment. Every
one seems to apprehend opposition to the scheme
from the rural districts. But there is no coudtry
town or village or township where the people are
not familiar with direct taxes for local purposes
Why should it be assumed that they will rebel
against a tax levied for the preservation Of their
government, when they pay similar taxes every
day for repairing their roads, bridges and school
houses? We are, in fact, inclined 70 believe, for
our part, that the theory Of direct taxation might
be carried much further than Mr.. Chase has done;
that besides small tax on all real and personal
property, special taxes might be levied on the
articles specified BY the Secretary, AID on q va
riety Of other articles Of luxury, and that n sum
more nearly approximatiDg to fifty than twenty
millions might be raised in this way. We are,
moreover, inclined to believe that iudicious re!
modelling Of the tariff would add much more than
$1,000, 900 to the present estimated revenue from
customs. 1t would be well to abolish the free list
altogether for thepresent and to reduce the duties
