The NATIONAL POPULAR LoAN.-Every day
marks an increase in the subscriptions to the
seven tbree-tenths per cent Treasury loan.
From one or two hundred thousand dollars per
day they have sprung up to million and up
wards. The sum received last Thursday in the
Sub-Treasury was one million and fifty thou
sand dollars. That of yesterday was still
larger. To-day we publish fac smile of a
hundred dollar Treasury note, with the coupons
attached. OF these there are five, the note
itself, which is payable in three years. standing
as the sixth and last. This, and the explana-
tory articles which we have published from day
to day on the subject, will familiarize the pub
lie with the working of the loan.
The notes will probably be ready for de-
livery next week, and we may reasonably look
for an immense increase of contributions from
that time. The million of dollars which this
city contributes daily may be doubled, perhaps
trebled, some days. The opening of FIVE hun
dred agencies all over the country ought to in
sure subscriptions to the amount of two or
three times those made in this city; and as the
average daily expenses of our government are
lDiyu
these few days past on account of the refundinc
to States their expenses in organizing and for
warding regiments there Will be no lack of the
snews of war. There is such an abundant sup
ply Of money now from this source that Mr.
Cisco, the Snb-Treasurer. found it unneces-
sary to present to the banks draft which
he received yesterday for an additional
ten per cent Of the loan assumed by
them, because he had enough money on
hand In this way the whole amount of the
first fifty millions assumed by the banks will be
taken by the people, and the banks will be
TINS enabled to go on and assume the other two
instruments Of fifty millions EACH Besides
these gratifying circumstances, assurances have
been received in Wall street by the last Euro
pean steamer that London capitalists in
tend to invest largely in the American
lean. Such confidence at home and abroad
argues well for tie pcrmanency of our institu-
lions and the integrity of the republic.

TIE HXTY-FoUR FOUNDER HEADINGS OF TEE
HERAI.D.-An English newspaper, commenting
upon thu. intelligence received in England in
regard to' American affairs, says that much of
the confusion and exaggeraton in the accounts
is ewing to the manner in which the English
kilograms are concocted. One of the English
papers say:-"A copy of the NEW YORK HERALD
is ripped open by balfenlightened clerk the
blazing head lines of the paper are hastily
glanced over and Unfortunately jumbied to-
getlcr in the form of a consecutive narrative.
Now, all this is very fine; but we are of the OPT
Mon that this "halfenlig htened clerk 4" knows
what he is about and attends to his bust
ness properly The London Times once pro-
nounced each heading of the HERALD's articles
"equal to a sixty-four FOUNDER" and the ex-
per.ence of this war has proven that sixty -four
Founders are very handy to have about, and
are the very best kind of weapons. Besides
this, the London Tsnes' Prince of Wales cores
pondent used to make up the best part of his
letters from the HERALD's headings, and its pre-.
sent war correspondent here manages to get
little truth into his epstles by quotations from
the same source.

The CORRESPONDENCE OF PRINCE NApoLEoN--
Our readers will remember translation we
gave of letter from the United States to
the semi-ofiicial Opinion Rationale, of Paris,
and which embodied the views of Prince
Napoleon relative to American affairs. This
letter, from its known source, attracted
great attention in the French capital, and
was perused with no ordinary interest on
this side of the Atlantic. Since its publication
more cpistles from the same pen have been
eagerly anticipated. But now we learn from
our Paris correspondent, on good authority
that the letters from Prince Napoleon have
been diverted in their course from the columns
of LOpinion Rationale to the Tuileries, and
are in future to be reserved expressly for the
private information Of the government. This
is not little significant, showing, as it
does, that she is so far uncertain of
results and undetermined as to action as to
be guided by the impressions, statements and
opinions of one whose judgment she is by no
means likely to undervaue. The mere circum-
stance Of Prince Napoleon writing about our
affairs at all, either to his own organ in Paris or
his cousin, the Emperor, removes to great ex-
tent the veil ofprivacy which was at firstintended
to STROUD his visit to this country and makes the
latter OF considerable political Importance.
The fact of their being submitted to the Minis
try instead of the people may only tend to In
crease the effect Of his letters, as what is never
made public can never be reported, and to all
that they contain more than common weight
will be,ettached. But, whether as the cores
pondentaof q new5papcr or the French govern
ment, we have no doubt Prince Napoleon will
combine intelligent observation With sufficient
