TIE NEW York HARMONY QUICKLY
BRoKEN.-A few days ago the Republican
politicians in New York declared their
feuds healed, and some went 80 far as to
say that hencef0rth there would be no such
distinction as radical and conservative
known::at Washington. But the pact is al.
ready broken, lind the war of the clans re-
newed more fiercely than ever. The move.
ment Of the radicals now Is to get Mr.. Ru.
fus A. Andrews restored to the Surveyor.

- Secretary Fessenden makes another
earnest appeal for subscriptions to the new
7-30 loan. He says he does not wish to is-
sue any more bonds with interest in c,,in,
nor does he wish to issue any more legal
tenders; but money he must have, and i,
the people don't take his loan he must OF
course raise the money in some other way.
He intimates that the National Banks
haven't been quite as active as they might
and ought to have been In encouraging
subscriptions. He makes another appeal
to them, however, before resor:ing to any
other agency. This appeal Of the Secreta-
~ deserves the careful attention or every
patriotic man. 1t is useless to raise and re-
cruit armies and elect an Administration
pledged to the vigorous prosecution of the
war, unless both armies and government
are sustained by the peoples money. The
investment offered is safe. profitable and
patriotic. and no man can do better thing
for himself and country than to subscribe
to this loan.

who resort to as 10 test the market are not as

making purchases, feel that they are advanc-

The patriotism which characterizes our
business community, and which welcomes all
Americans as citizens of the same great con-
federacy, is one Of its happiest features; and
while dealers from the interior find them
selves cordially greeted, and are received with
courtesy and hospitality, they will encounter
none Of that importunate entreaty to pur-
chase, which in other places has proved 80
fertile a source Of dissatisfaction.
In fine. the more we see of the various com.

THE FALL TRADE.

The inactivity which midsummer ever brings
70 the mercantile community is already dissi-
pated by the return of the business season.
From a careful study of the elements Of
prosperous trade during the present fall, we
are well assured that it will meet the expecta-
tions of the most sanguine. The leading
houses In the dry-goods, grocerS. hardware,
crockery, and drug lines, are amply prepared
for their customers; and wherever we have
visited the warehouse of our manufacturers,
we ind well-assorted and abundant stocks
prepared for the examination of the trade
The importers also, without having redundant
supplies have made importations entirely
adequate to meet all the requirements of the
market. An excess of imports is, to all con-
cemed, a manifest disadvantage. There will,
however, be no evil Of this character during
the present year.
With regard TO our own manufactures speak
ing from personal observation, we can pro-
nounce the preparations for the tall trade en-
tirely satisfactory. Cloth, tin, iron, chemicals,
drugs, books, fur, etc. aud in fine every fabric,
is ready TO meet the wants of buyers. Ii
Is not only a source of pride to us that as
manufacturing city we are, perhaps, the
largest in the Union, but that, as a rule, our
Manufactures are of the very best description.
And, what TO purchasers is of vast i'm 2orance
tie facilities for manufacturing, the cheapness
and abundance OF our coal, and the unparal-
leled means for transportation to all sections
Of the country, are such that no rival mart
can offer equal inducements to dealers from
the interior.
Leaving out Of view the coastwise shipment
ofgoods, we aIe much nearer TO the West than
any rival city, and can ship westward with far
greater certainty and despatch than New Y orlS
can do. Unfortunately, it is too true that the
Ohio is frozen for one half the year, and dry
the other half but 10 US such is the multiplicity
of roads running from Pittsburg, and reticu-
lating the entire West, that merchandise never
need be delayed while IN transitu between
purchaser and seller. These facilities are con-
stantly improving. That the Pennsylvania
railroad is the very best line running to the
d. west, IS a fact which everybody, noiens oOIeas,
ophged 70 concede and this should as it
certainly does, give Philadelphia commercial
