Private advices yesterday to some Of our
commercial citizens, indicate rapid ad.
vance in Federal stocks aud securities of
all sorts. 1t is estimated that the twenty
year bonds will touch par in few days.
The seven and three-tenths notes are sail
ing magni6ceutly upwards all the time.
They bring the foil premium, and the quo
tatiOns show that holders are withdrawing
from the market.
These facts are the true test of the pub.
lie confidence in the Government. That
confidence has never been SO buOyant since
the rebellion, as 1t is to-day. The Treas
uFy has all the money it wants, and die
tates its own terms.

The Oath and lIerohant's clerks.
From the RavenIwood ChronlcIe.)

NEEoLn the h2FensGood Chronlcle.)
Our Wheeling contemporary; the Intell-
igencer, seems to be of the opinion that
merchants clerks are required to take
the oath prescribed for those CARRYING on
business, or practising profession under
license in this State. We have examined
the act with considerable care without he
ing able to find any warrant for this
opinion. We think the Intelligencer
mistakes the meaning of the second para-
graph of the act wherein it is ordained
that no person shall serve as .'clerk OF
agent to one who is required to take and
subscribe the oath-aforesaid." The in
tention of the law, as we understand it,
is to prevent any person from eyading
the oath by carrying ON business in this
State through clerk or agent, instead
cooperating directly himself. If the act
means anything else it is IL monstrosity.
as it would forbid any person employing
an agent or clerk under any circlmstan2
ces. In our judgement, therefore, no
Commissioner of the Revenue or other
officer named in the Act, is authorized to
administer the oath to merchants clerks.

he made a speech the other day at a dress
parade of the Third Minnesota Regiment,
in which he said to them:
He knew the leaders of this rebellion
well and intimately, both personally and
politically, and he declared it was the firm
determination of the rebel leaders to over
throw popular government, if they should
succeed, aud establish despotism instead
Of our present liberal institutions. Mr..
Clayton, the assistant Secretary of Hon,
Howell Cobb, declared to him ON one oe-
caston that the people of the South, as well
as many at the North, were fully determine
ed to submit to the election of no Presi
dent who bad sprung from the common
people as Abe Lincoln had. Andrew jack
son had foreseen this attempt to revolu-
tioniZe the government twenty-eight years
ago, and had foretOld that the aristocrats.
in the next struggle would make slavery
their pretext. The prophecy is now in its
fulhllment, and the leaders of this Infamous
rebellion were trying to trampie down all
popular government, aud establish a des-
potism.
