FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
THURSDAY, May 9-6 p. NJ

THURSDAY, may o-o J.. M.
Uneasness and distrust continue to be the
feature Of the money market. Every one asks
who will fail next Very good paper cannot be sold
better than 8 per cent month; the primest
short acceptances Ia 8 per cent premium. On
call money is drug at a s per cent.
Pending the distribution of the Afrca's mails
little was done in exchange, bankers having
generally raised their rates. The market will not
open fairly till tomorrow.
Stocks were lower to-day; holders seem to be
beginning to realize the fact that peace prices in
war time are an anomaly which cannot long be
sustained. There was an increased supply Of
several descriptions Of stocks from various quar-
tiers, and at the first board New York Central de.

After the board the scarcity Of one or two leading
stocks caused an improvement in the price, ard
rally took place in the afternoon in consequence
in Illinois Central and New York Central. The
rest Of the market was dull and spiritess. The
news from England justiies the expectation that
we shall have large remittances Of American
should occur it would seem probable that specu-
lative securities are destined soon to touch much
lower prices than have ruled for many a day.

This is no superficial view, we can assure
our readers, for if the Journal is distin-

anything more than the above were needed

in the following extract from an article in

ANDREW JOHNSON OF TENNESSEE,

Mr.. Johnson's history has been a strange
and eventful one. Left an orphan at an early
age, without property and without friends.
he was bound apprentice to tailor, whom he
served for seven years. He never attended
school a day in his life, and painfully taught
himself to. read by persevering efforts after
his daily labor upon the shop board. Al.
the age Of 90 he married. and bis wife taught
him to write and cipher. Within two wears
he was chosen Mayor of Greenville, where
he had settled after removing from his native
State of North Carolina. and FIVE years later
he was elected TO the Legislature. IN lS43.
a, the age of 35 he was sent to Congress,
where he remained ten years. when he was
elected Governor of Tennessee: and after
filing the office for two years. he was chosen
a Senator Of the United States in 1857.
The high personal qualities which have
raised Mr.. johnson, in the face Of such
disadvantages, from the position of Jour-
newman tailor to that of United States
Senator were ssrikingly shown in the recent
session Of the Senate, where bis brilliant
and overwhelming replies to General Lane
commanded universal admiratinn, while hi.
manly and energetic defeuce of the Union
gave him claim to the gratitude and esteem
OF the free States which can never be for.

rouu WARS tcO-To DAY

From the petrOi, Advertiser Of March t;h.
Four years ago, to-day, Mr.. BUCHANAN
TOOK the oath to serve his country and the
constitution faithfully as President of the
United States. In his inaugural address,
delivered Jus, as he assumed the duties OF
his otsce, he congratulated the people on
their obeiisucs to the laws, and the striking
capacity of self government they exhibited.
We quote from the address as follows:
"We have recently passed through
Presidential contest, IN which the passions
of our fellow. citizens was excited to the
highest degree BY questions of deep and
vital i'm por,ance but, when the people pro-
claimed their will, the tempest at once
subsidized and all was calm. The voice of
the majority. speaking in the manner pre-.
scrihed bv the constitution, was heard, aud
instant submission followed. Our own
country could alone have exhibited so grand
and striking a spectacle OF the capacity OF
man for self-coverumeni.'
The patriotism of the people having been
exhibited in manner to call from Mr.. BC-
eu.SAx this msrked recognition, be deemed
i, his duty 10 administer to them his pa'er-
nal advice. that to continue TO be happy
thev must also remain vir,uogs. We quote
further from his address:

the above named gentleman. For thi.

important position Of First Assistant Pos:
Master General. As KAssos unites to
eminent ability, strict integrity and unfag-

1t is stated that John Bell, Of Tennessee,
had an interview with Mr. Lincoln a day or
two previous to the Inauguration, in which
he expressed his desires that the North
should "concede something" Mr.. Lincoln
told Mr.. Bell that he had concluded to stand
upon his--,he 'Union'-late platform, viz:
s.The Union, the Constitution and the en-

cFDIxoS, of the Des Moines Register
is feIcitous in his remarks about the value
of human life as compared with the current
value of dogs. There is no disputing the
fact that some human bipeds are desperately
worthless much more so than the most
valueless dog that howls discordant music
to the moon. But when you weigh the
value of one true man in the scale against
the universal dog tribe. we rather guess
the snarlers will kick the beam.
