Even THOSE who are in the enjoyment of
perfect health freqientty have need to have
recourse TO tonics as preventives Of dis
ease. We are never too well armed against
the assaults of ''tbe ills that flesh is heir
to-" Such an invignrator they may find
in HosTETTER's BITTHRs-a medicine that
cannot be taken regularly without giving
vitality and elasticity to the system. At
this season, particularly, tue strongest
man is not proof against the malaria in
certain sections of the country. In all
cases of fever and ague, the BlrrERs is
more potent than any amount of qui-
nine, while the most dangerous cases of
billions fever yield to its wonderful prop
critics. Those who have tried the medicine
will never use another, for any of the all
ments which the HosTETTER BTTTERs pro-
fesses to subdue. To those who have not
made the experiment, we cordially recon-
need an enrIy application to the Bitters,

The LONDON MONEY MARKET-The prospect
of war in Europe this spring, and the troubles
in our own country, are exercising significant
influence over the English money market BY
the Marathon, which arrived at this port yes
terday, bringing one days later intelligence
than that previously received, we learn OF a
further advance in the rate OF discount by the
Bank Of England. The rise, which took place
on the 7th inst, was from six to seven per
cent, and by its unexpected suddcnness was
severely felt, and created considerable sensa-
ton in financial circles, causing an immediate
fall in consols Of per cent Railway
stock, both British and American, suffered an
average depreciation of Il. per cent, and a
corresponding rise of per cent took place
in the general discount market. The imme-
diate cause of the advance in the Bank
rate is ascribed TO the news from the
United States, which induced an impression
that further shipments Of specie would be made
70 New York during the week. But there is
no doubt that the necessitous condition Of the
Bank OF France, which Is almost equally with
the Bank Of England affected by the panic, as
also the apprehcnded war in Italy, had much
TO do with It, The movement appears TO have
created no dissatisfaction or symptom of panic,
although some slight uneasiness was occasioned
by the apprehension OF further strong action
becoming necessary on the part Of the Bank
during this struggle for gold between England.
France and America.

LIS. 'oIN's CABNET-MoRE TIMBER TURNING
Up-It il great pity that there are SO many
clever peorNe in this world They are con-
tinually jarriss and jostling, each pushing.
hauling and intrss. piug for place, power and
influence. Every eoL,,y wishes to COMMAND; no
body is willing to obey This is especially
true in political matters, and particularly the
case with the republicans party. The number
of able, enlightened, patriotic and deserving
statesmen who are willing to take places in Old
Abe's Cabinet is perfectly astonishing, and
somewhat botbers the veteran rail splitter
Out Of all the timber offered to him he has ac-
cepted only two sticks-Mr. Seward and old
Mr.. Bates-the latter a fine antique, discovered
by that eminent political geologist, the vene-
rable Blair, of Silver Spring, and endorsed by
Hon. Massa Greeley. Lincoln sticks fast upon
the rock where Cameron has landed him.
Cameron has enough Of the Highland blood in
him not to give up Old Abe's letter Offering the
Cabinet appointment, and so things are stuck
fast. Meantime we have an immense amount
Of timber lying about loose. There are Chase.
Of Ohio; Charles Francis Adams OF Massachu-
sctts; John G. Fremont, of Mariposa; Amos
Tuck, all the way from New Hampshire;
Gideon Welles Of Connecticut fheavy old fos-
sill; N. 3. Judd, of Illinois, William L. Day
ton Gold whig, very rusty,, from New Jersey;
Moses II. Grinnell and George Opdyke, of
New York city; one OF the illustrious Smith
family, from Indiana; and last, but not loast,
that celebrated fighting character, Cassius M
Clay, of Kentucky. Cassius has smelt powder
in his day, and the juvenile republicans Of this
city think that Cassus ought to be at the head
of the War Department. They have already
resolved formally that Old Abe ought to give
Cassius the portfolio lately held by that distin-
guished and incorruptible patriot, Floyd.
Lately Cassius wrote letter published else
where) to the republicans Of Indianapolis,
and took strong grounds against anything like
Cancellation, announcing, in fact, platform
quite opposed to that laid down in Stewards
speech. However, we presume that, if our
young friends insist upon it, Clay will be taken
in, and Seward left to the tender mercies Of
Hon. Massa Greeley. This Cabinet squabbling,
to speak seriously, is one Of the worst fea-
lures in the present very dangerous COM
plication of political events Here we see the
country going to the dogs, and the only per-
sons who can do anything towards pasihcation
are busy in making arrangements about the
spoils-always the spoils. Between the various
factions, Old Abe is in danger of being torn to
pieces, and the prospects Of the country under
bis administration, are not over and above en-
couraging.

TnE BROOKLYN NAVY YARD PANIC The mus
tcring Of troops and special posse Of police in
Brooklyn, on Monday, to repel an apprehend-
ed attack by q secession or revolutionary mob
Of come sort for the seizure Of the United States
property in the Navy Yard, Afforded lively
bit Of excitement for the day and the evening to
our neighbors in that corner of Long Island
II turns out that the report Of the daring con-
spiracy in question was a pure invention Of
some genius anxious for local sensation or of
some desperate vagabonds for the chances Of
some stray pickings from the gathering Of
mob. The trick was shrewdly calculated; and,
after the seizure of federal forts and arsenas in
North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama and
Louisiana by the revolutionary elements Of
those States, and with the report widely circu-
lated and believed among the ignorant Of this
city and its surroundings that the terrible re-
evolutionary Kerrigan had force Of ten thou
sand mailed warriors at his back, ready here
to commence the work Of secession at mo-
ment's notice, a Ia Pensacola, II IL hardly to be
wondered at that the aforesaid rumor Of an in
tended descent upon the Brooklyn Navy Yard
induced the federal and local a1thori-
ties concerned to prepare for action. The
hoax has resulted in no harm, but, on the
contrary, in some positive good, in disclosing
the fact that the secession revolutionary force
bereabouts is limited TO few stray rowdics,

Curious FREAKS OF HIsToRY.-Fn the year
1914, during the war with England, the FIVE
New England States maine being not then
created) held convention at Hartford for the
purpose Of taking into consideration the qucs-
ton Of seeding from the other States of the
Union, in consequence Of certain measures.
such rs the non-intercourse act, the embargo,
and the war with England. The five States
were discontinued with the course of the Presi-
dent, and felt very quarrelsome towards the
South, chiefly for commercial causes. They iu-
sisted upon five or six amendments to the
constitution as a necessity for harmony, but
agreed finally to wait for six months, at the ex-
piration of which time they were to hold an
other convention in Boston. 1t happened how
ever that peace was concluded with Great
Britain before that time, and in the general
satisfaction all the difficulties were healed, and
there was no secession
Now, in this year 1861, we witness q secession
movement in the opposite direction. 1t is the
cotton States that are discontinued now, and
curiously enough they also number just five
Their quarrel is with the North, and nothing
but FIVE or six amendments 10 the constitution
will satisfy them. And it is very remarkable,
moreover, that two of the amendments de-
manded by New England in 1914 arc now pro-
posed in ngress-namely, that no new State
shall come into the Union except by two
thirds vote in Congress, and that the President
shall be elected for one term only Thus
history repeats itself, changing only geo.
graphical positions. The five manufacturing
States were going to secede forty-seven
years ago from the States that produced
the staple article of their manufacturing
industry; and the five cotton States are seeding
to-day from the States that most largely uss
their products. Very curious, and very sug-
gestive.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1861-01-23

official reports Of the Commissioners of Chair
ties and Correction show that they have now
under their charge S,777 persons as inmates OF
the city institutions, al increase Of 465 over
1860, and of $50 over corresponding
periods. Statistics as to the condition of the
outdoor poor are still more suggestive. Our
reporters have ascertained that the distress
among the laboring classes in this city is un-
prccedented. As many az twenty-eight thou
sand persons, able and willing to work, are
now idle The Superintendent of Outdoor
Poor has received no less than ten thousand ap-
plications for coal during the last two or three
weeks. The same official receives daily applica-
tons from mechanics who wish to be committed
TO the Workbouse. Beyond this there is of
course an immense amount of suffering which is
concealed through false pride and shame.
Would 1t not be well for our republican friends
bank presidents and so on, who voted for Lin
coin, to devise some plan for the alienation of
the misery which the political excitement con-
sequent upon his election has caused in the
Northern citicss In the South We find the ne
groes sleek, fat comfortable and devoted to
their masters. In the North the white slaves
are walking about tho streets with the alterna-
tives of pauperism, starvation or crime. The
contrast Is not very pleasant one for us, but
II is absurd to deny that such is the state Of
things.

SENATOR CAMERON COMING RouND-A BREAK
IN THE REPUBLICAN CoLUMN.-The republicans
in the Senate have thus far been unit against
any propositions of compromise for the restora-
ton of the Union. But on Monday last Senator
Cameron expressed his readiness to support the
Bigler propositions substantially the same as
the Crittcnden resolutions, with the important
difference Of direct appeal to the people);
and this indicates the beginning OF a break in
the republican column General Cameron Is a
sagacous politician, and is not apt to misin-
terpret the public opinion Of Pennsylvania. II

Of his ssgacity, 70 say nothing Of patriotism,
there would soon be settlement in favor of
the Union. The best of IL is, that as General
Cameron is still on file for Cabinet position
under Mr.. Lincoln he speaks to some purpose
when he proposes to try the virtues of a CON-
promise. Let him come forward without an
"if' for the Biglcr resolutions, and he may
open the way of deliverance to the country and
