DEMAND TREASURY NOTES.

One OF our banks, in expectation Of re-
celVing supply of Demand Treasury
Notes, in the way Of business, offers to ex-
change them at a moderate premium, for
gold. Paper that is Werth more than coin
is good but the Government must be pre-
pared to see all notes sent here "go straight
to New York for redemption" Using, az
We are here, q deprecated paper currency
at its nominal value, it must be expected
that the patriotism Of eur dealers in money
will be oFerborne by their necessities, and
that when currency, at par in New York
city, comes into their hands, they will
make the most Of it, We regret to say
this; but IN matter Of so great Import
ance we Should be unHise to excite ex-
Pecsaions that will not he realized. The
people are well disposed. If the circula-
tion Of the notes depended upon them, not
one in hundred would be returned; they
would be glad to see them push every In
diana, Ohio and New Esglaad bank nste
out Of the State; but their business is done
with bankers whose interest is not their
interest, and they must accept the business
arrangements that the bankers make. So
Let Mr. Chase be locking after his suppGez
OF coin. The Western money-dealers will
be after him, unless the indignation of the
people shall compel them to do what they
ought-their utmost to aid the Govern
ment in this crisis.

The troops which may be raised in VII.
ginia, Maryland, Kentucky and Missouri
ne have not estimated, but considered as
Home Guards OF police for their respective
States.
kansas is the only State OF the whole
list which has raised her full quota, Iii.
nols comes next, having mustered into the
service for the war about 10000 men, and
IN Fortnight hence abe will have her full
share Of Il, 900, and will make it the even
fifty thousand before stopping.
New York will have 10000 men in the
field by next week, which is three-ffths Of
her quota. The New England States have
raised barely one-half their proportion.
Even boastful Massachusetts is far short
Of her share, though she promises to hare
them forthcoming shortly. New Jersey
has in the service scarcely half her quota.
Delaware has one regiment, but is raising
another Take the ten Eastern States in
the aggregate, and they have not furnished
one.haH their proper share Of troops. They
are behind, to-day, one hundred and fifty
regiments. There is no decent excuse for
this culpable shortcoming; therefore we
have urged the proprtety Of resorting to
drafting. The men must be had. The
West will do its share voluntarily, and the
East should have little salutary coercion
applied to spur the laggards to their duty.
