New York Democracy.

The New York Democratic Convention
recently held at Syracuse passed set Of
resolutions in which they took strong
ground in support Of the Government a
gainst this rebellion. went strongly for re-
establishing the federal authority in all the
States. and condemned all agitators in the
loyal States who were demanding pre-
mature peace. These were all as they
should be and are decidedly patriotic and
loyal. But in order to prove that they
were Democrats and not Republicans. they
thought they must condemn something
And, they therefore declared that they dis
approved martial law where it had been
declared. that the President had no right
to suspend the writ Of hsbeas corpus, and
that they did not like the doctrine of his
message that the States derived authority
from the national constitution.

Great Success Ct the National I.oes.
Iron the New York World, Sept. ID.


The great feature of the day has been
the demand for the Treasury notes. which
has summed up 81. 037 500. This is fifty
per cent larger than the average since
the loan was called for. and is hopeful
sign for the future Of the market. With
what is subscribed elsewhere the supply Of
money to the government by this means
must be largely in excess of its disburse-
ments. With victory attending our. ar
mic. New York city alone could supply
Government with oil the means It required.
SO far very few Of the demand notes
have been presented for payment IN this
city. fact which goes to show public con-
fidence in them. 1t is evident that the
country would stand large issue Of these
notes if done judiciously.

Our troops having accomplished the OBJ.
ject Of their errani. connected with the re-
connoisance of the country. began 20 re-
trace their steps. when a large force of reb-
els. consisting Of two regiments Of infantry.
and Colonel Stewards regiment of Vir-
ginia cavalry. with battery of four pieces,
were seen approaching from the direction
Of Falls Church. evidently with view OF
cutting theri off and preventing their re-
turn to their camp. and line Of battle was
formed by the remainder Of their force.
The rebel battery thon opened with
shell. which was replied to from Griffin's
battery. Several rounds were fred on eac'
sile, when our troops ceased firing for a
bout twenty minutes in order to give the
rebels an opportunity, which they wou.d
not embrace. of meeting them on the open
field. the rebels being for the greater part
concealed in the woods.
Our forces. on resuming operations
brought into action 32-pounders. the
shell from which soon silenced the rebe
battery. The gun was then directed to
wards the cavalry. which appeared in The
road leading to Falls Church. and soor
sent them flying. number reeling from
their saddles and falling to the ground
The shells exploded in their midst.
The command was then given to with
draw. and our column fell back in goos

Assuming that You. upon the ground.
could better ia lge of the necessity of your
position than could at this distance, on
seeing your proclamation of Aug. Goth. l
perceived no general objection to it. The
particular clause, however, in relation to
the confscation of property and the liber-
alton Of slaves. appeared to me to be OBJ
iectional in its non-conformity to the net
of Congress passed the 9th Of last August,
upon the same subject. and hence wrote
you expressing my wish that that clause
should be modified accordingly. Your an
swer, just received. expresses the prefer
ence on your part that | should make an
order for the modification, which l cheer
fully do.
| 1t is therefore ordered that the said
clause of said proclamation be SO mo1i-
fled. held and construed as to conform to
and not transcend the provisions on the
same subject contained in the act of Con-
gress entitled can act to confscate prop
erty used for discretionary purposes, APP
proved August 9th. 1861" and that said
act be published at length with this order.
Signed A. LINCOLN.
Mrs. Fremont. when here, told the
President that her husband would choose
between obeying the proclamation and re-
signing. This may help to explain the
strange and unaccountable paragraphs IN
New York dispatches.
Twenty prominent peace makers. about
to meet at Rockville. Md, have been ar
rested by Gen. Banks.
The enemy have now picket Rnar'l on
the southwestern side Of IIattcras Inlet. TO
watch the movements at and about Forts
Hatteras and Clarke. Four vessels on
their way in have been captured by the
Forts and the steamer Pawnec.
