above that the amount Of currency driven out Of
circulation by the war Is $3.50 600 900, II follows
that there will be but little more currency afoat
ia the country when Mr.. Chase has exhausted the
powers lately conferred ON him by Congress than
there was before fhe war. IT. therefore, Mr.. Chase
should think fl 70 apply to Congress, either in
December next or at an extra session to be cor.
vened in October, for power to issue more legal
tender money, in order to defray the cost of the
new levics Of troops. his policy will not be OBJ
soxious to fair criticism. It may be necessary,
However, to accompany any now authority
70 issue legal tender currency with some
restriction upon the Issues of private banks and
with the repeal Of the present laws authorizing the
eecretary to pay creditors in certificates OF indobt-
edness and to receive deposits on call. Quite
large number Of banks have been increasing their
issues with unusual rapidity within the past year.
Following the lead OF our city banks, whose circu-
lat:on has risen from six to nine millions in about
six months, the banks Of the interior Of this State
have been pouring out their small notes as fast as
they could print them, and have created such de-
snand for State stocks that the 6's are selling at
lis. A similar course has been pursued by the
banks in the neighboring States. There was some
excuse for these issues when the smallest denomi-
nation Of notes made by government was five dol.
lars. But now that government is prepared to
float $35 100000 Of notes between 81 and IS, and
say $4,000 900 Of notes below one dollar, these
bank issues are unnecessary, and might be
driven out of circulation by proper taxcs
with benefit to the public. With regard to
the certificates of Indebtedness and the deposits
payable on demand, the least that can be said of
ti., is that they nre shallow make shifts. The
certih Gates will fall due when the Treasury can
lcsst an. I'd to pay them, and the deposits will be
Withdrawn when they can worst be spared. Both
combine to kee,, down the price Of government

A large number OF propositions have
been made to the Naty Department fer
the destruction of the pirate Albahla,
provided suitable reward should be offer
ed to warrant the undertaking. AS a
general answer to all such applications it
may be stated that there is no doubt but
that the Department will cheerfully buy
the vessel OF any party capturing her, and
pay half million dollars for her; and in
the event of her destruction, 800, 900 dol
lars. The latter payment, however, be-
ing subject to an appropriation by Con-
gress:
Ordes have been issued directing the
occupancy for Government purposes OF
property in Washington of persons known
to be in the service of the rebels, inclu-
ding FIVE houses belonging to Com. For
rest, two to DR.: Cornelius Boyle, one to
Dr.. Garnett, sonin-law to Henry 4:
Wise, one to VIM. R. Smith, member of
the rebel congress, one to MIR. Phillips,
ex-Sixth Auditor of the Treasury, one
to Capt: Huntington, ex- Chief of the
Police, and several others.
1t is ascerIained from New Grena-
dian official source that the Government
has interposed no objection to free black
emigrants to the Republic, the policy be-
ing to encourage the settlement OF the
country by those qualified to develope
her agricultural and mineral resources.
Gen. King has been ordered to report

Emancipation az a War Measure.

Orestes A. Brownson, a celebrated Ro-
man Catholic writer. who is we'll known
in THIS country, having accepted the
Union nomination for Congress, for the
Third District Of New Jersey, made his
first speech in the campaign, at Elizabeth,
last week, in which he defined in q clear
aud lucid manner, his position upon tho
grave questions at present asitating the
nation. We append his views upon the
Emancipation policy of the Administra-
tion as q war measure. We commend it
to the careful peru<al Of our readers:
&c 1t is not as an Abolitionist that de-
mand at all the emancipation of the slave.
l demand it, if demand it at all, as u
war measure. necessary for the suppress
sion Of the rebellion. and to restore the
integrity Of the national territory, and to
preserve the national life. IApplause.
/ say here, as l said elsewhere ever since
the rebellion broke out, that consider
the emancipation Of the slaves necessary
as war measure-necessary to weaken
the enemy, and to enable us successfully
10 put down the rebellion ITSELF (Cheers. |
In ordinary times. when the Constitution
IS recognized throughout the land, the
Federal Government has no right to in
terfere with the question of Slavery. 1t
belongs to the States where it exists, and
they, and they alone, have the disposition
of IT. But the Government of the United
States has two powers--its peace powers
and its war powers. The war powers OF
the Government are just as constitutional
as the peace powers. Under the peace
powers of the Constitution it would be
unconstitutional to attempt to abolish
Slavery it would be unconstitutional,
other Southern State. In state Of peace
VIC could not meddle with that question
in any one of the States where it legally
exists. But the war powers Of the Gov
ernment are conferred by the Consttu-
ton. 1t confers on the Federal Govern
ment the war power, and clothes it with
all the rights of war. 1t does not emu
merate these rights as it does the peace
powers, because the rights of war are de-
termined by the law of nations-by the
law of nations as i: is recognized by the
Jurisprudence of ali civilized, that is to
say. all Christian nations. Under the
right of war, if the authority either Of
Congress or the President, judge it neces-
sary to the success of the Federal arms
to abolish Slavery, to declare the slaves
Tree. it has right to do SO, and l, as hav-
ing respect for authority, acquiesce. 1t
has right to judge, not 1. Personally,
believe it necessary. l have written SO
in public. The President seems to have
adopted the same opinion, and cannot
fiud fault with him for having done it.

How the Rebels'get their Goods.

A dispatch to the Chicago Tribune
says, that an immense contraband trade is
going OH BY Norfolk, although permits
are furnished only upon a certificate that
the carsoes are army supplies. The snt'
lers supply an excuse for much OF this
trade, furnishing additional proof OF the
mistake of Congress in not abolish;ng
sutlerSlips altogether. A large mercan-
tile house is doing business at Norfolk,
with branches at Yorktown and Suffolk.
Vessels loaded with smuggled articles
find their way through the canal to the
rebels, and some loaded with shoes, have
been captured in the North Carolina
Sounds.

be taken were Springfield, Mount Vernon
