The idea-or perhaps, we should say, the
delusive expectation-of early peace evil
IDENTIFY underlies the movement of which the
decline in gold is the outward symptom.
Peace would naturally lead to great changes
in business and values but those changes
would not, as some suppose, be Uniform or
identical in the various branches Of business.
Peace would set free once more the great Southern
staples, and hence would naturally cause decline
in cotton, turpentine, rice and tobacco. BY caus-
ing gold to fall it would bring down the price of
imported goods, such as tea, sugar, coffee, hides,
foreign hardware, &c. Domestic dry goods would
follow cotton in the downward course. But there
Is reason for supposing that peace would affect
injurousy the price Of the great Northern staples
or the general internal trade of the North. On the
contrary, the business Of the country which
has received q tremendous impetus by the
manufacture Of paper money, would receive
a new development on the conclusion of
o peace. immigration from Europe would
flow to the West at an unprecedented rate.
Under the influence of the present highly protec-
tive tariff factories would spring up in every vii
lage. Under the influence of s450, 600, 900 OF paper
money enterprises of every kind would be started,
and all the boundess resources of the country
would be developed. With peace would come the
restoration OF confidence, and with that would
come capital from abroad to compete with our
home capital for employment. The establishment
Of peace would again restore the nations
gcs devoted to the prosecution of the war, to
peaceful pursuits, and the results would be com
mcnsurate with the increased supply of money
which enterprise would be enabled to command.
These various visions Of the future are probably
premature at present; and IL must always be re-
mcmbered that peace would not cancel a single
dollar of the $3.50 900 900 Of paper money aoat.
The receipts at the various agents Offices to-
day for conversion into $40 bonds amounted TO
81 IT'S 000 the receipts at the Sub-Treasury on
deposit per cent to s670 900; total 81 s45 900.

Nothing was decided to-day az the meeting
Of the Michigan Southern directors on the subject
Of the dividend on the guaranteed. stock The fact
seems TO have operated prejudcially on the price
of the stock. The fac- is, the directors have used
the money which they had TO pay up their debts to
the Sinking Fund Commissioners, who have now
in their possession $3.50 600 Of the bonds Of the
company. having received about $500 600 from the
directors within two years. The sinking fund is
now full, and there seems no reason to doubt but
the guaranteed stockholders will receive their ten
| per cent this year.
