Financial and Com nm rcial summary
for the Past Week.

The gold market having been greatly unset
tied, there was consequent irreguarity in
financial as well as commercial matters from day
to day. and the quotations were good but from
hour to hour. The range of the gold market
has been fully ~ per cent. caused, no doubt, by
all sorts of rumoIs, plausible, possible ard other
wise, regarding the management OF the affairs of
the nation, in the Cabinet and in the field. The
news from England that the rebel RI ms had been
seized by the British Government caused de-
cline of some 5 per cent, and then the removal
Of Gen Rosecrans put it back again, and so the
market has been kicked up and down by the
crowd of spectators which infest Wall and Will
liam streets in New York. and the commerce of
the country made to respond to their freaks from
hour to hour, which is humiating as IL is
true
The continued pressure of exchange on our
market depressed prices. and decline was estab-
lished early in the week to H@l-l0 discount
bu ing. and par selling. at which the market
closes dull
Currency has been fully close it the
previous week, but whilst the tightness of the
money market continued, it Jas not been felt to
any great extent, and the new National Banks
supplied their customers at their standard rate,
per cent but outside of them los per cent. was
the range The demand for Kentucky currency
has been steady all the week. and rates frmer
and round lots wculd command shade over
quotations Government securities were shade
easier We quote:

A Family Picture.

The Wesliche Post. the German Jacobin or
gan at St. Louis. in an article on the removal of
Gen. RosEcRASs, thus portrays the condition of
the governmental family at Washington:
Il looks now in the house-government Of the
United States pretty nearly as in a household
where man. wife and children are eternally fight
ing each other. Prosperity takes its leave, the
good laborers bid goodbye to the house. and the
little that is done is done with lassitude aud dis.
gust. The stranger recognizes at the first glance
that the household is "going down the hill, and
he turns To better climes from the filth and ruin
OF the buildings. Thus il looks in the household
Of Mr. Lincoln at Washington. Mr. Lincoln
and her husband Seward are often quarreling,
while some evil mouthed cousins and aunts like
Blair and Bates do their best TO increase the tn
multi
Mr.. Lincoln possesses, indeed. the womanly
virtue of stubbornness. and that faulty obstinacy
which is unapproachabe by any argument of rea-
son. Just in the manner of that obstinate woman
who snapped her finger at her husband while she
was drowning. Mr.. Lincoln sits in Washington
and snaps his fingers at the Missouri and Kansas
delegations. He knows all the troubles of our
people, but his stubbornness and the reactionary
sentiments of Seward, make a second Horned
Siegfred" OF him. whose tough armor no CON-
plant of the people. no Of distress, can pene
trate In short, this half bankrupt family in
Washington has only one thought left, hsio 70
repair its household in the merit Presidential cleo
ton at the expense of other people.
Who shall say nay. on the last pointf It is a
notable coincidence however, that in the same
issue Of the st. Louis Republican from which we
copy the foregoing, appears letter from Mr..
LINCOLN. in which he lmns the "happy family
of Missouri. This production we published few
days ago.

The Charges Against Rosecrans.

We publish this morning an article from the
Washington Chronicle, the Administration organ,
charging corruptions upon the part of General
RosEcRASs in his administration of the affairs of
the military department lately entrusted to him.
1t is little singular that these charges have not
been ventilated before and it is no less strange
that the Administration, having knowledge of
these alleged corruptions, should continue that
officer in the command of so important division
of the Federal army. If the state ments made by
the Chronicle are true, they are equally damaging
to the Administration as to Gen ROsEcRANs No
aduation by the Administration prints than has
Gen. ROsEcRASs, but now the tune has changed
and he has become the subject of the most bitter
denunciation from the same source. The faults
alledged against him are not of recent origin;
hence the inconsistency of the abuse now heaped
upon the idol of few days ago.
In his speech at Cincinnati. Gen. RosEcRAxs
stated that his action had met the full
approval of the President, and he said he
at a loss TO know the reasons which
induced his sudden removal or supersedure. If
he has such an endorsement from Mr.. LINCOLN,
and we do not think he would make the state
ment unless he had the documents to sustain him.
the people will be at loss to understand this
double dealing. 1t appears that the President
fully approves OF Gen. RosEcRANs' management
Of the command entrusted to him, yet the con-
fdential organ of the Administration produces
the most damning charges against him Either
the President is bypocritical in his commenda-
tons of Gen. R., else the Administration or
gan, instigated by ils selfish enemies, and for
selfish purposes, are endeavoring to destroy him.
If the latter should prove be the case, it will
only excite the popular sympathy in his behalf
when the fact is established. On the other hand,
If the accusations brought against him
can be known, the meI who kept
so corrupt and incompetent man
at the head Of the Army of the Cumberland
will receive the deserved rebuke of the peo-
pie. especially when they continued him in that
position until perhaps the most important battle
of the war bad been fought and lost. The de-
velopments in this case are additional evidences
that there is something exceedingly rotten in the
management of the war.

the woe Of the garden Of Gethsemane Still less
are these things endurabe when they inter
spersed with the most commonplace remarks on
paper currency, the seizure of the Trent the gar
risoning of Canada, and we know not how
many other trivial and entirely secular subjects.
This may be the manner in which the enthusi-
asm of the American people is influenced and
supported. but We believe no English audience
can possibly listen to such language with any
other feeling than that of disgust 1t is not a
question of good taste; it is not even ques
ton of the familiar introduction of the most
sacred names and most venerated associations
into the arena of party politics. IL is something
far worse than ali this. 1t is the deliberately
setting up, not as an object of worldly ambition,
but of religious worship and devotional venera-
ton, that extravagant vanity and desire of over
whelming power which has long been the main
spring of American politics. but which is never
sheess not more opposed to sound views of ma
tiona happiness than il is to the first principles
of the meek. humble. and peaceful religion with
which IL seeks to identify itself. To say that
in Mr.. Beecher's view the preservation of the
Union is an article Of religious belief. is to do
scant justice to Mr. Beechers views The pres
ervatiOn of the Union, according to him, is so
paramount a doctrine OF Christianity that, rather
than it should be violated, every other principle
of the religion may be lawfully set inside The
truth is, that Mr. Ward Beecher and his brother
II
war Christians the inventors and propagators
of a new belief-religion we will not call it-and
may take their place accordingly. The formula
of their creed is simply enough. The Union is
one and indvsibie, and Mr.. Ward Beecher is its
prophet. IL you ask for the evidence OF faith
which seems intended so entirely to supersede the
spirit and precepts OF Christianity, the answer is
the answer of Mahomet-the sword The belief
is true. because Mr. Beecher and his associates
are prepared to exterminate FIVE million human
beings who deny it. 1t certainly mas not derived
much edifcation from its prophets: but. the
other hand. il has been beyond almost any relig
ion on record, fertile in martyrs. At the present
moment, the evidence seems somewhat doubtful,
and the news of the last great battle may shake
the faith OF the weaker brethren, but we have no
fears of the Rev Mr.. Ward Beecher The man
who has persuaded himself and thinks he can
persuade others, that any Divine element is in
volved in the transactions which have, during
the last two years and a half, made the American
Republic pandemonium earth, is elevated
far above. or sunk deep below. the possibility of

Unconditional Unuor,sm.

The favorite expression of the Republicans
nowadays is that they arefor the Union without
a why wherefore. A leader Of this party is
Senator WILSON Of Massachusetts. He regards
himself Union man par excellence. In a speech
delivered a short time ago he uttered the follow
ing sentiment, which illustrates his idea Of Union
ism:
"This extra anxiety about the Union is the
merest cant. This country is sick of it. The
sad fate Of the chiefs of this Union cry for the
past three years must convince even the member
OF Wilbraham that this sitting up with the Union
does not pay expenses"

The extent of power assumed by the President
of what has been regarded popular government,
is hardly appreciated by the people The Dis

four or five thousand ahead of the rest of the
Site ticket The Legislature Is, however, in
the Senate has one Republican majority; but
then one of the Republican Senators from the
western part of the State. Major White. is a
prisoner in Richmond. and likely TO remain there,
owing to the dead lock in the matter of ex-
changes. Hence neither party will be abe to
control the Legislature. and COMPROMISE must
be effected in tho organization. The fruits of
victory in Pennsylvania therefore, are lost to the
Republicans, as they cannot control the legisa-

much chagrn to the Republican Executive. and
