lPennsylvania Legsslature.

HARRISBURG, Pa, April s.-Gov. Curtain states
that he has receiaed letter from President Lincoln
stating that he (Lincoln) has information Of de-
sign to attack the city Of Washington.
Governor Curtain sent special message TO the
Legislature to-day calling attention 10 the military
organization of the State, and recommending the
Legislature to make immediate provision for the
removal of the defects now existing, by establish
ing military bureau at the Capitol, by modifying
the militia law, and by making proper distribu-
ton of arms, &C.. .-ts-a-r -. 3D.
He calls attention to the serious jealousies and d.
visions distract1ng the public mind and the military
organizations Of formidable character, seemingly
not demanded by an existing public exigency in
certain States. He adds that Pennsylvania offers
no counsel and no action in the nature of menace;
but desires peace and to effect the preservation of
the personal and political rights of citizens the true
sovereignty of the States and the supremacy of law
and order.
Animated by these sentiments and INDUCING the
earnest hope Of speedy restoration of harmonious
and friendly relations, commit the grave subject
to your elaboration The message was referred to
joint select committee to report by bill.

unwilling to make Investments of any description.
Reuorts come I'D from all quarters of the country
where commerce is usually active at this season,
that Money is abundant but that no business is
doing Commerce as well the industrial pursuits,
seems to be palsied by the uncertainty as to the
political future. The Louisville Courier Of this
morning reports a limited demand for Money and
adds There seems to be no return Of confidence
among the merchants but on the other hand, matters
appear to be growing worse and worse every day
The news from the South has depressing effect on
the market and parties are not disposed to operate
to any extent"
The demand for Exchange on New York con-
tinues light but the supply is not large, and the
market continues firm.
In the general markets there was a little more
activity than yesterday and the day before. The
transactions in Cotton were light, amounting to oulv
16 bales, at the following particulars bales at

demand, especially for the better grades, at full

There was to-day a full support of the strong
feeling displayed by the Provision market at the
close of the week. The movement of the trade
seems to indicate disposition the part of buyers
to eoncede to the demands of holders, but both
parties maintain their positions with pertinacity.
There were sales of bulk Sides medium, at S3(daSkc
