FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL

THURSDAY, Feb. &c p. N.
general feeling of uneasiness continues to per.
wade mercantile and financial circles, in conse-
quence of the uncertainties which overhang the f-
ture financial policy of the government. 1t is openly
asserted that the gravity of the crisis not appre
ciated at Washington, and that Congress seems
strangely unconscious of the peris which will be.
come inevitable if the present state of delay lasts
much longer. There is very little that is encourag
ing in the letters from Europe. The entire mer
camille and manufacturing interest of England and
France seems to be hostile to the United States,
and the only hope of our escaping foreign nterven-
tion on some such frivolous pretext as the stone
blockade, appears to rest upon the conservatism
and high principle Of some members of the govern
ments of these two Powers. Very serious incon.
vencncc is caused by the policy of certain banks in
throwing out United States notes. IL is proposed
that the merchants unite in representation to the
banks, requesting them to receive these notes on
deposit, and if any refuse, that general request
be forwarded to the Bank Superintendent praying
that he wind them up forthwith All the bank.
illegal ground, and it is in the power of their
customers to compel them to close their doors,
The true and safe remedy for the present difficulty
is, however the passage Of the legal tender clause
by decided majority and will now 90 to the
Senate.
The money market is without change. Money is
in good demand at a per cent, very few lenders
being anxious to part with their money at present.
First class paper is so that it passes readily
az 6 u 7 per cent.
Foreign exchange is inactive, but rates are firm.
We hear of sales of sterling at l04 for first class
bankers bills, and Of francs at 1917 9s2 The.
market will not become fairly active till to-mor
row.
The stock market remains dull and anguid with
a limited business Operators are all intently
watching the proceedings in Congress, and rumor
states that some of the members who have lately
made themselves conspicuous by their ardent de.
yoton to the hard money system are in close
and constant communication with some of
our speculative jobbers. At the close of the fire,
board the market was heavy. At the second
board very little business was done, and the mar

A tradesman actively engaged in the
pursuits of this world, had met with great
success in his various undertakings. His
business fourisbed, and he was enabled to
support a large family in comfort. This
thriving man vas, On one occasion, led to
hear a faithful minister of the gospel, and
under his sermon be was greatly alarmed.
He felt that the gospel was true ; his q q
science told him that he was uDprepared
for death the preacher affectionately re-
minded his hearers of the danger of delay,
and pointed them to Jesus Christ as the only
and Almighty Savior. This man was in .
state Of great anxiety ; death and judgment,
heaven and bell, time and eternity, were
all before his mind. What do you suppose
was his language? Strange to say, it
was. 6 Not yet He wished . little more
time for sin and the world. On leaving
Gods house, he could not forget the SER

his bed, and was soon busy In the world,
but he could not forget the sermon; it seem
edto say, snow is the accepted time !" but
his wicked heart said, mot yet"
A dav or two after the Sabbath, the
preacher called on his nearer ; his very pre-
sence revived the impressions of the ser
mon. The man looked at his business, and
it said, Not yet )" he looked at his fam
lily, and they said, mot yet )" he looked
at his trends, and they said, Not yeti
This poor, convinced, but unchanged man,
still went on in the course that he knew
to be wrong.
Reader, has this little tale led you to
look at yourself? Has it reminded you of
the manner in which you have trifed with
| Gods truth, with your own soul, and with
eternity?
Are you young ? you have heard the
kind invitation, "My son, give me thy

ter much delay, trouble and expense, owing to the
war and interruption OF trade, he has procured a

independence and dearest interests, will pay up their
arrearages, or a part Vt least, SO that he may be able

LER, n Of Virginia's 6rauest sons, scho
in the memorable and sanguinary battle Of
July 21st, recetoed a wound from which
sprang a dreadful disease that caused his
death.
Upon the bloody field he fell,
With none TO watch or care;
Far, lar from those who loved him well,
And HER he deemed SO fair.
Far from a brothers. fond caress,
A fathers watchful yes,
a sisters love and tenderness,
On plains he lies.

To protect Virginia's sacred dust.
He babe loved friends adieu,
And with the gallant, noble First,
He to the rescue flew.
Upon the bloody battle field,
manly heart he bore,
And nObly did he try to shield
His country from the foe.
But ere the lannon's thunder ceased,
Ere we had gained the day,
A painful wound he had received,
And then was borne away.
But thinking his wound was slight,
His thoughts then homeward flew,
And to his sister he did write,
81 soon shall be with you." s
But alas disease ~insatiate came,
And 10 his form Frustrated
Upon a weary couch of pain,
And there for death he waited.

ITO be with those so kind,
BUT ere I go I shall be dead,
Then l viii be resigned"
Thus for several days he lay,
While those at home were watching.
And thinking each the happy day, :.
When they should greet his coming.
Fen then the vital spark was quenched,
Their longings were in vain,
The idol from their hearts was wrenched
They'd ne'er see him again.
