Be GENTLEMEN AT noME.-Therc are
few families, we imagine, anywhere, in
which love is not abused as furnishing H.
cense for impoliteness. A husband, or
father, or brother, viii speak harsh words
to those he loves best simply because the
security Of love and family pride keeps him
from getting his head broken. Ii is shame
that man will speak more impolitely at
times to his wife or sister than he would
dare to any other female except low and
vicious one. Things ought not to be so
Kind words are the circulating medium be-
tween true gentlemen and true ladies at
home: and no polish exhibited in society,
can atone for the harsh language and disre-
speetful treatment TOO often indulged in be.
tween those bound together by Gods own
ties of blood. and the still more sacred ties
of eonjugal love.

OUR NATIONAL FINANcEs.-Robert J.
Walker is now in England, and has COM
menced the publication of a series of letters
on American finances and resources. in the
first of which he explains and defends Mr..
Chascs system. lis success is shown by
this striking statement, that at the close of
the fiscal year ending lst July, 1860, our
public debt was only $64769,703, and
Secretary Cobb was borr rowing money at
IL per cent. per annum. On the Ist of
July, 1868, in the midst of stupendous
rebellion, our debt was Sl,097, ,274,O0O,and
Mr.. Chase had reduced the average rate of
interest TO 3.86 per cent. per annum. Mr..
Walker looks forward TO the time when the
national banks and currency will displace
the whole state bank system aad currency.
He thinks that The gain to the country by
this change will in twenty years be nearly
equal to the cost of the war. On the in
faenee which Mr.. Chase's system will have
IN identifying the interest of the people
with loyalty 10 the government, Dir. Walk
er says: :" 1t was the State Bank system
in the rebel states that furnished to Sc ces-
sion the sinews of war. These banks are
now generally insolvent, but if the banking
system now proposed had been in exist
ence, and the circulating medium in all the
states had been an uniform national curren-
cy, based entirely on the stocks of the Uni
ted States, the rebellion could never have
occurred. Every bank and all its stock
holders, and all the holders of the stock and

Still the reports roll in of rebel hosts
marching and concentrating upon Gen.
Koseerans- From all parts of the
South-wherever a refugee or deserter
finds patient listeners and voracious re-
porters-we hear of rebel armies march
ing against Rosecrans. One would think
that, within very few days, the whole
Confederacy viii be on his back. His
own friends are getting nervous and
iidgety, as well as respondent, while COP
perheads are enthusiastically circulating
the report that he has already been de-
,eated and is in full retreat With them
The #ish is father to the thought-and
much good may its circulation do their
traitorous gizzardsl Rosecrans is not
defeated, nor is he in retreat. He sell
dom retreats and never gets whipped
The Army Of the Cumberland have for
gotten all they knew about retroprade
movements. During BuelPs administra-
lion they were trained in that kind of
maneuvering, but Rosecrans discarded
that species of tactics and it has been
forgotten. Let EN- concentrate. our
boys are ready for them; and we predict
that Bragg or Johnston, or Lee. or who
ever may command the rebel army, will
find that he has the largest contract on
nand that was ever assigned to any one
man to accomplish.
Gen Gilmore is making dilligent
preparations to send Charleston another
visitation of Greek fire. The huge mes
sengers of destruction are being aecumu-
lated at Cummings Point, while the
guns that are to give them wings are
being mounted. Unless all calculations
fail, Charleston viii soon be numbered
with the things that were. If one gun
could occasion such CONSERVATION with
two or three shells of Greek Fire. as to
extort cry of agony from Gen. Beaure-
gard, what may be expected when IA or
ID of the monsters commence belching
destruction at much less range?
Speed the noble work. Let the Sodom
of American politics be destroyed. There
is not righteous man in it.
From New Orleans we have meaper
accounts of the sailing of an army COM
posed of three columns Its destination
is supposed to be Galveston, Texas. Our
own 1lth and 9th Indiana compose
part of the expedition. If the boys are
really after Galveston, Magruder may as
well adopt the tactics of Scots coon and
come down.
