Treasury notes which Mr.. Cisco has been author
lied to SELL Another days delay will give cona-
dence time to recover and will obviate the chance
of a failure in the negotiation. There we're good
many inquiries for the notes at the 6ubTreasurers
office to-day, and soon as people make up their
mind that the government cause has not been
ruined by the loss of 800 or 400 men, and the out
break Of panic among our young soldiers, there
will probably be rush for them. People who
have been In the habit of buying short paper, and
who now can find mono in market to suit them,
are not likely to let slip so excellent an opportp-
nifty Of employing their means during the remain
der Of the dull season. We presume that the
whole will be disposed of tomorrow and next day,
and that the banks will be ready next week for
the first OF Mr.. Chase's war loans under the new
act of Congress. In mercantile and financial
circles to-day unbounded confidence was express
ed in the government Of the United States.
There is no change in money, and no failures 70

bankers ask 1917 for sterling and 1913 for francs,
but we hear of no transactions above lo7N, and
not many at that. The fact is, produce bills are
go scarce that the bankers could not cover their
exchange if they drew heavily; they are conse-
queny the less disposed to quarrel with the want Of
INQUIRY for their own bills. At present rates there
is no margin for profit on importations Of specie
from Europe.
Stocks rallied to-day after the panic of yestsr-
day. The advices in this mornings HERALD con-
yinced many that the disaster Of Sunday IL not
irreparable, and that our losses, both Of men and
Of guns are not nearly as heavy was at first re-

soldier was stationed, "his neck, breast and

leg and trickled from his boot upon the
