cool, sagacious gentleman, who has several
times ascended in Loves balloon, informs me
he made an ascent last night, and remained
up for an hour. He does not believe the
rebels have the slightest idea of any direct
attack upon Washington, as they are not
in strong force, and are unsupported by
heavy artillery. 1t is probably feint, and
quite possibly covers an attempt to cross

The Secretary of Var in his dispatch to the

An incident of some significance, so far
as our National Loan is understood by
practical and Intelligent Bankers abroad,
is related by an American gentleman who
has just returned from London. While at
his bankers-the Messrs. BARRING--he
asked Mr.. JOSHUA BATES, of that old and
eminent house, whether England would take
any part of our new 7.3O per cent. loan at
par. His prompt reply was that the En-
glish people would get no part of the loan
at par, for the sufficient reason, based on
the last advices from this side, that the
loyal States would absorb the whole loan,
and this being accomplished, as it soon will
be, the English people would be glad to buy
part of it at a premium. Of course, the
American gentleman, whose politics are
loyal, was abundantly satisfied with this an
swer. But not so an American companion
whom he had invited to accompany him to
his bankers, Southerner, intimate at the
rooms of Mr.. YANcEY aud the other Confed-
crate Commissioners at the Westminster
Hotel. He was astonished at Mr.. BATES,
and the rext time the friends met, which
CHANGED to be at YANCEY's quarters there
was considerable less talk about the inabili-
ty of the North to command the means to
suppress the Confederate rebellion. Indeed,
it is related that the spirits of the Southern
party were seriously depressed by the dis
covery made at the counting room of one of
the first Banking houses in Europe.

HOW THE REBELS OBTAIN NEWS-THE AR.
HES OF TIE POTONAC.
From the Regular Correspondent of the Evening Post.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 10.
The traitor Byrd, who has recently fed
to Richmond, and, according to Southern
accounts, has given to Jefferson Davis "a
full account of matters and things at Wash
ington, singularly enough is northerner,
ard Was appointed by the present admins
tration. He was appointed by Mr.. Came-
ron at the suggestion of Assistant Secreta.
ry Scott, was an old friend OF SCOTS, and
till within few weeks was trusted by the
head of the department. 1t is rumored
that be was dismissed because he was sus
pected of furnishing the rebels with import
ant information concerning the then future
operations OF the army. Angry at his dis
missal, he has wreaked his vengeance upon
the government by turning traitor and re-
vealing such of its secrets as he possessed to
the leaders of the rebels.
A few weeks ago General Mcclellan was
upon the point of executing a movement OF
minor Importance upon detachment of the
rebels who were quite near our lines. To
his great astonshment he discovered that
some one had informed the rebels of the in.
tended movement, for they fled preciptatey
to Fairfax Court House, as was published
at the time in the papers. Just after ridicu.
lOus rumors OF the arrest of MIR. Scott, the
Assistant Secretary, were current upon our
streets, the rumors growing out OF the
known fact that some one in the War De.
partment was suspected. 1t is now stated
that Byrd was the guilty man, and that
Mayor Berret was also mixed up in the af.
fair, but the last part of the story cannot be
true if the government has offered to re-
lease the Mayor on condition of his taking
the oath of allegiance.
1t is found utterly impossible to entirely
cut off the transit of persons between the
loyal and disloyal States, but the rigid
manner in which the system of granting
passes and the publication of news is man.

persons who travel South are without any
information of value to the rebel leaders. 1t

ment here to learn anything respecting the
future movements OF our army or the condi-
ton of our defences-of course, then, an
enemy could know nothing worth carrying
away, except in rare instances. where unu>
sual facilities were granted. That the rebel
leaders are somewhat bewildered respecting
our strength it is easy to perceive.

Now, as the soldiers will sing that tune in
preference to any other, we think it highly
desirable they should be furnished with
better words to it; and who knows but they
may be willing to adopt this, which is at
least unexceptionable on the score of taste
and sentiment. General McC Clelan is fairly
entitled to the reward offered by the National

RETURN OF THE AFRICAN SQUADRON
The United States steam gunboat Sumpter
arrived in this port yesterday morning from
St. Paul de Loando, Africa. She is the
avant courier of the African squadron, the
whole of which has been summoned home,
Seven other vessels composing the squadron
had sailed, or were about to sail, so that the
Navy Department will soon have an effec.
tive force of eight vessels to add to the
blockadiDg force or to cooperate in offensive
operations along the Southern coast. The
oath of allegiance will no doubt be immedi-
ately administered to the officers end crews
of these ships, and their services be put in
prompt use.
The returning officers report a couple of
years of very active coast cruising after
slavers. Indeed, the English have recently
been felicitatipg themselves on the unwouted
activity and vigilance of the American
squadron. But we have now other pirates
to look after, and the British government
may receive recompense for its sympathy
with the slave rebellion by having itself the
whole slave coast to guard.-New York

Revival of Business

The World, on this subject, reasons that
the revival of business is sure, and will be
permanent. We are to expend S350,00O,'
600 year for war purposes, or an amount
equal to our whole foreign trade The pro-
fit it estimates at 100000 day, scattered
among the people. The money expended
comes from our own surplus unemployed
capital, for which there was no other use,
and which certainly must have remained
idle-not only earning nothing in the shape
of interest or profit, but reducing the price
of money, from its excess to an undue and
unsafe extent. We quote:
By the action of government this unemnloy-
ed money is used to stimulate powerfully the
inventive genius, enterprise, and labor of our
own people, and is doing so by increasing the
consumption of domestic wcolen, cotton,
mouselin de laine, and fancy dress goods, as
well as those articles which are used and con.
sumed by the soldiers. The advance in prices
caused by the war has enriched many ndvd-
uals. Cotton goods which were manufactured
from material bought at l0c. to l2c. per pound
are now in demand, and sold readily for cash
on a cost based upon l8c. to 20c. per H. This
is caused by doubts as to the future supply of
cotton.
Woolen goods have advanced from twenty to
thirty per cent. owing to an increased demand,
beyond the stock on the market and the capa.
city of the mills to supply, while the raw ma.
terial can be purchased cheaper than last year.
The profits at present are therefore unusually
large, and, if we assume that the manufactur-
ers and dealers in these domestic goods are
making together twenty five per cent. profit on
the amount manufactured, and that the cotton
manufacturers of the Free States, at 700 600
bales, are worth in merchandise $50, 900, 0OO per
annum. these estimates furnish ample reasons
for the conviction that the natural refux after
a crisis has fairly set in, and that we are now
embtrked on the flood tide of the soundest and
most prosperous trading that this country has
ever experienced.
