the late disaster at Bull Run and the general
Encouragement of the war. There have been
several secret meetings, at which the dolngs
OF. the government and its agents have been
freely discussed, and if members Of the Cabl-
net only heard half of it they would be far
from pleased with themselves. The loan asked
for by Mr. Chase was, Of course, the principal
point in the discussion, and it was agreed that
unless there is some guarantee foT better man
agement IF the war in the future than in the
past, thc specie in the vaults Of Wall stree;
should not be invested in the Federal war and
q committee, with instructions 70 that effect,
was sent on to Washington to have Il plain
talk with old Abe and his Cpbinet. There is
one thing that will be- insisted on, and that is
the removal Of Gideon Wcilcs. as Secretary Of
the Navy, whose incompetence has been de-
.nonstratcd in SO many ways.
