ference Of conduct Oh the subject Of the pur-
chase of supplies by the two belligerents.-
This difference has been conspicuous since
the commencement of the war;
The public finances demand the strictest
and most earnest attention. A prompt and
eficacious remedy for the present condition
of she currency is necessary to successful
performance of the administration of the Gov
eminent.
He recommends taxation instead of further
sales of bonds or issues of Treasury notes.
The holders of the currency now outstanding
can only be protected by substituting rthem
some other security. The currency must be
promptly reduced to prevent the present in
fated prices reaching rates more extrava-
giant.
He calls upon the people to come to the
rescue. He recommends putting an end to
substitution, and modification of the exemp-
ton law, and to add forces to their army
largely and as promptly as possible. He re-
grets the suspension of the exchange of pris-
oners, and that the com munication with the
trans Mississippi region is SO INSTRUCTED as to
render difficult the complying with the legis-
lation vesting the authority over it in the Ex-
ecutve of the government. The enemy re-
fuse the proposals for the only peace that is
possible between us, and the only hope for
peace now is in the yigor of our resistance,

Respited. 7. Keately and Jas. Hal
ter, of Co. l, Second Delaware Regiment,
were arrested by Captain 7. NJ. Wenie last
August, and forwarded to their regiment
They were there tried by General Court Mar
tial, when they were found guilty of deser-
ton, and sentenced to be shot to death by
musketry on Friday, the 10th day of Decem-
Der, between the hours of II and 8 o'clock
Their execution, however, was prevented by
Captain Wenie visiting Washington, apd
setting forth that they had deserted when
Capt Wood resigned, in April 1861, under
the impression that having enlisted with
him, their connection with the army termi'
mated with his withdrawal therefrom that
Keately had wife and five chilnren depend
emit on him for support; that company l,
through participation in ten ofthe fercest BAT
ties ofthewar and several skirmishes, had been
reduced to five effective men, and that Keate-
ly and Halter were good soldiers, which repre-
sentation induced the President Hons. Geo
P. Fisher and N. B. Smithers, having seconded
them, and accompanied Capt. w. to his
apartments--to interpose his authority IL
their behalf. Their reprisve will begratify
ing news to their families, and they may
return their thanks to Capt. Wenie, and
Judge Fisher and Congressman Smithers, as
to President Lincoln, for this act of Executive
clemency.--JournaI.
