The ChlroSraphy Of Grant and Less
A Richmond correspondent of the Savan,
nah Republican, referring to the late cor.
respondence between Gems. Grant and Lee
in reference to the relief Of our prisoners
at the South, says: 81. ..s. =. ~. .agzs
"The correspondence between Gen. Lee
and Gen. Grant is now before me, and
have Leen much struck BY the handwriting
Of those two ablest generals the Wat haa
brought forward on either side. Gen. Lees
handwriting is bold and rather stiff, his let
ters being large, round and very distinct.
He bears heavily upon the pen-probably
a goose quill--and abbrev;ates many Of hia
words, as if writing were a labor to him.
The following is an exact transcript Of the
| first sentence in this letter to General
Grant: ~a r<hza m H@f @ai1
'General-I have read ysur letter of the
18th inst; accomp'g copies of letters from
Judge Ould, comm'r of Exchange Of Pris'ra
on the part Of the Conf'ate States q the
Honble E NJ. Stanton Sec'y of War, L..
Col. Mulford Asst. Comm'r of Exc. of the
U. States .. -. ...... .... .s H.-. -.
He does not, as you perceive, punctuate
! closely; and nowhere in his letter does he
write out the word and, but invariably usca
the abbreviaton 81 And yet he pausca
long enough to dot all his i's' and cross all
his 't's.' All his letters are drawn nearly
Straight up and down the paper; in other
words, they are like himself, round, full.
bold and upright, inclining neither to the
right nor to the left, and standing firmly on
their base, as if they disdained all assis-
tance They are so clear and precise, 50
round and weighty, and distinct, that each
letter reminds one Of a solid cannon
tal, and each word Of cluster Of grape:
| shot
Gen. Grants handwriting. on the con,
trary. though not so bold and distinct, nor
the letters so large and round and erect, is
nevertheless very legible and very str King,
1t is full Of energy and action, and his lot.
tel 8 all incline to the right, and follow ono
after another with little space between
them, as If they represented an equal mum.
Der, Of his brigade on march round Lees
right Among photographers his hand
would be called a running hand. The
words occupy much space from left to
right, and still they are very clear and
!egi6le. He pays more attention to punctu.
alton than Gen. Lee, abbreviates less, and
is equally careful of his is and is. 1t may
be the work Of the Imagination, vet in
reading his letter cannot but picture the
writer as restless. nervous, energetic mar.
full of fire and action, always in motion,
and always in hurry" aaa ajA.@

BEEN commenced in Cumberland, which has sold as
high a. S. For Quichhlvm the demand continues,
and 9Si was paid. Early in 1865 dividend will
probably be made in gold. Railway shares are not
favOrites, and it is hard work TO find people to buy
them IN preference TO Government stocks. Rail-
way shares have accumulated in the hands Of specu-
lating brokers at time when large dividends are
out of the question and profits equal to legal inter
est very doubtful.
Money has been less active, but at per cent
brokers' balances have been readily loaned. Upon
call, Governments have an advantage of one per
cent over railway shares, and upon half the margin;
twenty per cent margin being the rate With fncies,
and ten upon Federal stocks. In all quarters the
latter are regarded as tile best collateral offered and
they are taken TO the damage Of fashionable specu-
lstive shares.
Sterling Bills are not so firm, and there is no
special disposition to hurry remittances. sixty-day
