the States. The bills of these Nation
al Banks being taken at par in all pol-
tons of the States, will make them
sought after as n means of exchange,
and being secured by U. S. Bonds will
be looked upon by the masses as more
secure than most other paper money.
BY the way, they W l after a me force
our other circulation out of use, and
concentrate the whole monetary in

agine how this vast machine might be
used so as to damage the whole coun-
try, but if properly administered it will
be universally beneficial.

EefFct of the Conservation.

The whole number drawn under
this call, including the fifty per cent,
allowed for contingencies, in 100000.
OF this aggregate one third-say one
hundred and fifty thousand-will be
exempted. OF the remainder it is now
pretty certain that one hundred thou
sand will be compelled TO serve; at
least fifty thousand will pay the ex-
emption fee. This will give the gov
ernmcnt $50, 100000, which will ena-
BILE it to bring back into the service,
by three hundred dollar bounties, one
hundred thousand Of the returned vol
unteers 1t will be seen that we omit
from this calculation, to meet acct
dents Of one sort or other, sixth of
the three hundred thousand drawn
the product, then, of the conscriptson,
directly and Indirectly, will be at least
two hundred and fifty thousand men
more than the governmentwill prob
ably ever stand in need of.
This does not alter the odious and
oppressive character Of the measure
That there was no occasion for it
is shown by exemptions made in favor
of Now Jersey, Ohio and Indiana,
which is rapidly filling up their quotas
without its aid. The fact that the
government reserves to itself tho
right TO favor, for political or other
purposes, particular States, is in itself
the strongest argument that can DO
used against it, The American peo-
pie will never tolerate a system by
which ruling party can elloctually
control the ballot box and perpotuate
The evils of a military despotism. For
present purposes the CONSUMPTION will
accomplish all that is militarially desi-
rable; but as a political engine it will
utterly fail. Congress will have no
sooner reasscmbled than a pressure

CALIFORNIA ELECTION.

SAN FRANcIsco, Sept. B.
Incomplete returns from the princi-
pie counties of the State indicate i'm
menso Union maioritios. Lowney,
democratic candidate for Governor,
owing to his excellent record while
Governor in former years, runs con-
siderably ahead of his ticket, but
Lows majority Notwithstanding will
hardly fall below 10000. All the Coz
heard from elect Union Legislative
ticket. The Union majority in San
Francisco county will probably aver
age seven thousand. The independent
Union Legislative ticket got nearly as
many votes as the combined vote for
regular Union and democratic tickets.

Correspondence.
TonoNro, C. w, Aug. 81, '03.

Without particular accident or in
cident to note, l have accomplished
this much of my journey. An over
load of salt and grind-stones, and
strong head wind, delayed the Queen
several hours, and instead of going
on to Detroit | stopped off at Port
Huron, and took the Grand Trunk
from there Friday evening, arriving
here the next morning ut the very
seasonable hour Of $3.50. Port Huron
is making more permanent progress
this year in the way of building and
improvements than it has III any one
year since 49, the oldest inhabitant
still insists in the opinion that it is the
club" of the Northwest, and regards
with skepticism all accounts in circu-
lation concerning the growth and pros
perity of Saginaw. He cant see"
how this fast young aspirant for
wealth, population and commercial
position, is enabled to rush by some of
its inordinately ambitious and intensely
respectable neighbors; he is an unbe-
lever, and may accept his recorded
fate and be-. The ride from Sar-
MIA to Toronto was performed i'll de-
cidedly comfortable sleeping car, by
moonlight, and though we passed
through much of Her most gracious
majesty's noble Canadian provinces,
we failed to discover any marked diff
ference between the scenery and char
acteristics thereof and those of some
of the poorer sections Of Uncle Sans
farm. Toronto, from which we write,
is a city about the size Of Detroit, with
rather OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES" airs,
the peculiar characteristics of which,
as far as our limited observations per-
NIT us to Judge, are few magnificent
public buildings, worlds convention
of sail and row boats, for which the
bay opposite ispeculiarly fitted; pala-
tial residences and lordly grounds,
shut out from the vulgar gaze 10y high,
close and unsightly fences; one-horse
hacks soaporifc nowspapers-the
only readable sheet in town being the
GranbIr, copy Of which send you
slledadlers," niggers, and a superhu-
ity OF 'rel coats" who in gorgeous
pomposity seem spelling for fight"
with their American cousins.
The main item of trade is the grain
trade, though there is something done
in lumber. The population of the
place is said to be so, 1000, age so years;
and there is actually no better showing
of resources to-day than East Sagi-
nav, and suburbs can boast and not
be an atom of kiting. The rich are
richer, the poor poorer, the "big uns"
more pompous, and the little uns"
moro subservient here than at home
but after all there is no startling con-
trast, and there are so many Ameri-
can faces, and the traces of American
handiwork are 50 observable in every
department, that pretty much all the
odor of responsibility in the way of
business about the city comes from
American enterprise. In fact, Cana
dian pride has scarcely peg to hang
upon, save that inherited from John
Bull; that however; is cherished with
asupercillious tenacity most unaccoun-
table to our fierce DemOcrdcic.
OF the business and attractions of
Canada in general, will write more
at length hereafter, when l have seen
more.

The Berinning of the End.

The beginning of the End.
The Boston Post says every ind
cation from the insurgents shows
heir cause TO be in a bad way. In
the centre of their operations, Rich
m)nd, are evidence of an anxiety
and alarm, such as has not be-
FIRE been seen; and Gen. Lee makes
n progress in the invasion he is said
10 mediate. The last sign is Rob
Toombs's letter on the National
currency, which makes it out that
this national" concern is more than
one thosand per cent below gold and
silver, and four hundred per cent be-
low bank notes, which is quite a de-
probation If we start West, where
Gen. Rosecrans is advancing, we find
ia the region of Chattanooga, the reb-
cl army cut in two, the mountains
swarming with rebel deserters. and
the rebel army awaiting their certain
fate of Generalization, while the peo-
pie are manifesting a disposition to
return to the Union. Thus, in Grun-
dy Co., in Central Tennessee, the peo-
PIE have just held meeting, declared
for the Old Union, and asked that the
! tate be reorganized, and that an cleo
ton be held for loyal men for Cover
nor members of Congress, and the
General Assembly of the State. The
citizens attending the meeting then
held an election Oh the subject of the
Union, and when the vote was polled
there was III for the Union and none
against the Union. The great paper
rom Raleigh is an evidence of the
state of things III North Carolina. If
we go further South, the rebel cause
soems about to give up the ghost, and
tiere would seem to be nothing able
10 cope with our armies. If we look at
Charleston, there is calamity already
upon thcm and moro at hand. In
Georgia it is confessed that many are
turning their eyes to the Old Union,
This is now the time for statesman
ship. 1t is gratifying to see patriotic
republicans out flat-footed against the
l,ood-thirsty propositions of such mis-
ctablc partizans as Solicitor Whiting.
The place for such as oppose these
eternal war schemes, is the ranks of
the Union Democracy; for the jacob
ms have the control of the party now
IN power. and ought not to receive the
countenance of honest men. "Seven-
eighths of the people"-the Newbury-
port Herald, Republican, says" all
OF them out of New England, except
such as have freshly omigrated from
here, and few Red Republican Ger
mans, would be in favor of restora-
ton Of the Union upon the old basis,
leaving all questions of local institu-
tons aside, and letting the punish
ment of the rebel leaders take place
under National or State laws, as they
have always existed. If, therefore,
the opposition should make this the
Grand issue, they would force the Re-
mtblicans to say yes or no to it. If
they assented, the North would be a
unit with the exception of the Adolf
;ionists, who would not carry more
than two States for their theory of
tubjugation, determination, ruination
and damnation. If, on the OTTER hand
The Radicals should get the ascenden-
~ in the Conventions, and say no to
the proposition of restoring the Union
as it was, then they would fall into a
lesser minority than did the Wing
party of 1852"

THE WAY GILMoRE's MARSH BATTERY

~ q
WAS CoNsTRUCrED.-A correspondent
says: "The famous Marsh Battery,
which is one of the many proofs of
General Gilmore's daring and energy,
to the surprise of the Charlestonians,
commands thoir houses and homes, to
say nothing of the other ordnance
The battery is i'll the midst Of the
marsh, 1000 yards i'll advance Of Nor
ris Island-was located at night by
the men making their way TO it on
their stomachs. A path, two planks
wide, was then constructed, which
was hid from rebel observation 10y the
marsh grass. Planks three inches
thick were driven down to the sub
stratum; on this were laid several lay
ers; on them logs, and., on them boards.
In the meantime the ordnance was
floated up by night, and sand bags
innumerable, from every direction-and
one night large force piled them up
and, to the surprise of the rebels, a
dangerous battery greeted their eyes
next morning, in dangerous proximity,
as if invoked by the MYSTERIOUS hand
of magic"
