FINANCIAL And COMMERCIAL


TUESDAY EVENING, Dec. H. 1869.
The demand for money saows not the least
abatement, and the scarcity Of currency vas eycn
more severely felt to-day than yesterday. Some
OF tue bankers were obliged to 'sshin"-to sell
New York Exchange at par and make the best
terms they could to pay balances this morning,
OF course the price Of New York Exchange was
nominal. ringing all the way from par to x pre-

conspirators, a summary Of which We
print elsewhere, is significant document.
There is not a single CLEAN Of hope or
promise in any part of it It is an indi-
rect acknowledgement Of tho desperation
Of the rebel cause, with IN appeal to the
rebels to fight on as the only temporary
means Of saving his and their necks from
the halter. Its initial paragraph is wall
over Teve1scs, the reasons fdf which be
cannot comprehend, and is followed by
g1css attacks upon his own troops for want
Of corrage-the only instance on record
We can call 10 mind where Commander
in-Chief has openly and personally assailed
his own soldiers. But the jeremiad does
not cnd here. England, France and Eu-
ropcan nations in general come in for
share Of his inpotent wrath. He eearncstly
desires TO retaliatc, but he cannot find any
practical way Of doing it. The rebel
finances are another subject Of pcrplcxity,
and he secs no outlet Of escape from finan-
cial ruin but by an increased rate of taxa
ton upon people whose resources of in
come are already dwindlcd down TO the
smallest living figure. The army again
needs filling up, and has been bunglcd and
botched by incompetent commanders. He
rings the old changes Of inhumnnity to
prisoners and crucltics in the prosecution
Of war, and closes his message by laying
the flattcring unction to his soul that Di-
vine Providence has awarded them sue
cess disproporionate to their means, al
though he has been careful not to enume-
rate any Of these successes in his long
winded diat1ibe. We hear none Of the
boasting, the yaunted superiority, the bonn
bastic cliivalry Of three years ago. It is
a sullen recognition Of defeat and disaster.
Davis had better call home his troops, lay
down his arms, get down on his knees and
mesh1y and humbly trust himself to the
forbearance Of the government he attempt
cd to destroy. If he is so fortunate as to
be hanged, he will at least save the South
crn States from any further misery. If
not, he may have an opportunity in the
few rcmaining years Of his miserable He
to make some amends for the cruel wrong
he has inflicted, in pursuance Of tic mad
schemes Of his personal ambition.

Il is Just as We expected. The junto at
Richmond have determined to allow us to
send no more food to our soldiers in prison
there. This is equivalent to denying them
any food at all, except enough to taper off
miserable existence.
We wondered that they suffered us to
supply them when they did-involving, as
it did, SO humiliating confession. And
it certainly was a blunder for them, as
they hive since found 1twould seem TINT
human feelings gained the ascendancy by

The fact is, that the stock Of meat and
bread in the Confedcracy is scanty; other
wise they would have resented our propo-
sition to maintain our own prisoners in
their hands rs downright insult The
dictate Of reason and humanity, then, is
either to parole the men and send them
home, or to confess their poverty and suffer
us to feed them. They have tried the lat

A pretext Is never wanting, when thing
is required to be done. We charge them,
1orsooth, with purloinins the prisoners

The case is plain. THO presence of the
