NEW YoRK, Jan. 29.--Thcre was little varla-
tion In tho complexion Of commercial circles
yesterday, as compared with Wednesday. Gold,
the great regulator OF business nsactions,
was without marked change, though fluctua-
ting, and the markets were, In consequence,
rather quiet. On Change prices Of the leading
commodities were without important change.
Flour and wheat were bought largely for eN-
port to Great Britain. Hog products were mod
erately active and generally firm, except lard.
Butter was active for exports, at higher prlcesj
good 70 prime State brought 30g24c, and Wes-
tern 30G2Sc. Cheese was In demand and firm.
Freights were substantially as on Wednesday,
with engagements Of about 10000 bushels
wheat and 6,000@7 600 barrels Of -four for
Great Britain. Groceries were without change
Of moment. Petroleum was dull, heavy, and
lower, for both crude and refined. Imported
merchandise was rather quiet, and we note few
sales. Frelghts were steady.
The stock market did not open this morning z
with the buoyant spirit that marked the close
OF wednesday evening, and II was quite evident
that prices had been pushed above the margins
OF outside purchases. There was, in consc-
quence, lack Of disposition to buy at the
ruling prices, as compared with the sales at
the First Board yesterday.

Retirement of Mcclellan Generals
The consolidation of the Army OF the Poto-
mac into three corps-Second, Filth and
Six,h-and the retirement of six of the old
Mcclellan gene rails, have reused the ire of the
Copperheads against Gen. Grant They rea ly
anticipated different result. They fondly
imsginnd that Grant was such . greenhorn As
to give Mcclellan the command of the Poto-
mac army. The shock to their nerves at the
withdrawal from active duty, in this part OF
the field of military operations, of Gems.
sykes, French, Newton, Kenly and Spinola,
was alarming. Gen. Grant has the fate Of
Gems Pope, Burnside and Hooker before his
eyes, and is too shrewd to permit rivalries
and jealousies to continue to destroy the
efficiency Of the Potomac army. Had Pope,
! Burnside and Hooker the to do what Grant
| has now done, it is certain the disasters OF
their campaigns would have been to great
extent avoided. There is no earthly doubt
but that two, if not the three generals here
named, were sacrificed to the spite and per.
sonal ambition of Mcclellan. I notice from
his parting address to his troops, that Gen
Sykes was wholly unprepared for bis remov
al from command Doubtless the same wal

How TO JUMP SAFELY FROM TIP CARs-We
often see persons make bungling jump from
cars while IN motion, and often see them
thrown down. This arises f,om want Of
reflection, as they could jump safely [if they
only knew how though it is better and safer
to wait till the cars stop than to run any risk.
Now there is . way, that al persons should
know by which one can jump safely, even
though the cars are going 1t great speed.
Take care to have sure foothold when you
are about to jump, then jump easily forward
at little angle from the cars the same way
they move,. and continue, your pace easily
when you strike the earth, and you will moi
feel any more sensation than in an ordinary
run. II the cars are at very great speed
and necessity requires you to jump to save
your lit, then give all your vigor and strength
and jump with the cars, yet at slight angle
from them, and jump - high as possible int
the air-the higher the better. for the body
will soon loose its momentum, and you vii
descend and light upon your feet without in
Jury. This can be seen by sending an appl'
or rocket into the air; when, its strength
upward ID gone, it falls to the ground in
direct line; 90 persons that jump. up in thi
way without fear, are ssfs. Any other Va,
lis always dangerous to ifs.-Ezehengs.

THE ADDRESS OF TIE [REBEL1 LEGISLATURE OF

The def ant tone in which 1t treats of the ef-

the eloquent language of denunciation in
which il refers to the barbarous system Of
