From Toe n. Y. Herald. -
On one point 80 far as we have been able 10 ascef,
tain perfect unanimity exists among our moneyed
men-;he Government must be sustained. Every one
depores the terrible calamity which has beiaen the
Republic But there is no desire among the merchants
or cauitasts of NewIork 10 shiTk the issue, or 10
evade the responsibilities of the contest. Upon New
York will 6evolve the chief burden OF providing ways
and means for the war; our financial community &c;
cept the duty, and will perform 1t. Ihs view we ma
to be universal among moneyed men, incluoing many
whose sympathes have heretofore been with the South
If the Government prove true TO the country, heed
not feel any uneasness about money In the OpiOi,
of our leading bankers, hundred millions over and
above the receipts Of the Government from customs
and land sales if necessary to defay the expenses OF
the for year from this date could be readily Dor
rowed In Wall street, at rate of interest certainly not
exceeding that which France and England pld 1or the
money which they borrowed for the Russian war. II,
for the purpose of bringing the war to an end and set
ting this controversy Of forever, further sum De
requisite, it will be forthcoming. Wall street, 50 lar
as we can Judge is ready to sustain the Government
heartily and literally.
The Confederate Traitors have commenced the war
they have been long preparing for without opsruc
ton and their first prize in light thaylng previously
confined themselves 10 stealing, under pretense OF
peace has been the capture of Fort Sumter and sixty
men by force OF five thousand, with nineteen heavy
batteries. This nglorous success will cost them dear.
Inexcusably and wantoniy taking up the offensive,
they have at once themselves oil from ali honest
sympathy even in the South, and klnded "a palrlouc
rage envelopes all parties and all classes through
out the Union States hencetorth. Inc Presllent mas
issued his proclamation calling out 15OO men 10 put
down the rebellion, aud converting Congress on he
Fourth of July. Gov. Morgan OF this State VII at
once call out contingent OF 2o,c0O men, ana 0o!.
Curtin of PENNSYLVANIA will do the same. New regl-
ments are already forming rapidly in anticipation OF
the proclamation.
1t is now for the people of New-EDgand especially
and OF the great Northwest, who have so earnestly
demanded vigorous policy, to prove the sincerity OF
their zeal by rang 10 the support o. The sss SoIsr
lifted up its head; 1t has mashaed Its bosis IL mas DIG
inpudent defiance 10 the Government; 1t has cannon
AIDED and taken celebrated fortress; s Secretary o.
War has had the insolenee TO make pubnc boast tt
the Secession flag will float over the national capital
before the lst OF May These rebels and oespeFadoes
have given unmistskable proofs OF their esTnesness
They must now lie checked, or anarchy and mlsrnle
will sweep over the whole country bike destructive
deuge Fellow-citizeDs of the Free States this the
hour 70 prove your loyay-to test your ptot4sHi-to
earn the gratitude OF your country.
From TIE y. Y. Evening Post
The Presidents proclamation proves him worthy 10
be the head Of the nation. His honest words ma an
echo In millions Of loyal hearts this day. Only these
words were needed TO seal the speedy doom OF treason
To-day who s not for the Union Is against IT. TO-DAY
he whose heart does net throb and whose Diooo eoSs
not stir with patriotic fire "a q vile traitor Inc reDes
have chosen war They have done their best 10 say
LOYAL garrison. Without single cause OF complaint,
they have turned their arms against the ohioh ana
the determination of treason from the land The peo-
ple will not rest the nation will not be satisfied, While
q traitor Is left In arms.
