FREEDOM or The PRESS III aAAYLANb.


In referring few days ago 10 the pretext as.
signed by Gen. WALLACE, the Military Comman-
der at Baltimore, for the suppression OF the
Evening Post" in that city, we characterized 1t
as being equally "frivolous and despotic." We
had supposed that when information Of the fact
was brought to the President of the United
States, he would, for his own sake, if not from
any respect for the Constitution and the laws,
interpose his authority to correct this abuse
of military power But in this superstition it
seems we were mistaken, and the President 10
willing to have the country understand that he
retains in command at Baltimore . man who has
not courage or capacity enough to deal with street
riot excited by his own soldiers, and still fur
ther to understand that the freedom of the press
in the United States is dependent not only on the
caprice Of military commanders, but on the riotous
propensities Of their soldiery. For further nfor-
nation on this sorrowful subject we refer the rea-
der to the subjoined correspondence. We, still
cherish the hope that the President will not suffer
his Administration to rest under the odium OF
such wrong, which he has it so easily in his
power to redress. sgit "a alaa9 aiseEa

ANOTHER LETTER FROM MR.. FILLMORE.

j We have to-day another letter from Ex-Presi-
dent FILLMORE, which, though not written for the
public, has, with his consent we presume, found
its way to the newspapers. 1T is addressed to
citizen of Philadelphia, and is as follows:
BUFFALO, AUGUST IL, 1864.
JoHN BELL ROBINSON, Esq Dear Sir: Your kind
favor Of the 30ih umo 10 hand the 9Th instA
and have just received yours of the 9th, and while
fully and gratefully appreciate your Kind intentions,
hesitate about responding to your Inquiries chiefly because
am unwilling to write any thing for publication.
While take the deepest interest in the fate Of my
country and look with painful apprehension to the future
yeti have retired from public e and hardly appear
again before the public BY letter. without having my
motives mpugned and msrepresented; and therefore
have invariably refused to attend any public meeting
write any thing for publication '1N'
sincerely feel that the country is on the verge Of ruin
and unless the policy which governs our national affairs
can be changed we must end in national bankruptcy
and military despotism Perhaps the former cannot
now be avsrted but the latter may but 10 my opinion the
policy can only be changed by change Of Administrations
Every thing seems to have been done to unite and exss
perate the South and intensity ts hatred 70 the NORTH 90
as to render union impossible; but still am not without
hope that change Of Administration may change the feel
nps of The South towards u.s. and eventually bring about
restored Union and an honorable peace; but have
faith in that policy which proposes to e1temnate tho
South or hold It BY military subjugalicn. To mainfsin
this Union by force Of arms merely would require
standing army that would exhaust all The resources Of the
nstiop and necessarily convert our Government into
military despotism This result that no patriot can
contemplate without horror But hsSe said moro Than

lieve me, ad Yours, &calk 8tsdH gagss9sc4 =

SATURDAY EVENING, Jan. 0, 1851
This evening cuds the c1osest week which tho
Chicago money market h.s experienced for a long
time past When New York exchange aad cus-
rencJ arc both very unconnsc1tably close it shows
that the banks are ont Of money, or, in other
words, that they have accommodated the!r CUSTOM
ers to the extent OF their means For many days
past, currency has gradually been working closer,
and now another element has come IN which will
rapidly lessen the volume OF 1t In circulation E1-
ehaEge has also been getting closer and It is now
finn, With, perhaps, single exception, At i,
where It will pay to shlp Eastern currency aud
'sGrecn Backs" to n1ake1t, Bankers are actively
sorting md the Express tonight will take lsrge
renIttauccs Eastward. As the demand for Green
Backs just now is Eot pressing, shipments OF
them md s 20 bonds were alao made.
This Of course will tend to increase the sringen-
cy, and sgain the question Il mooted whence or
WIEN are VIC too look rgrcater ease In our Money
market. The active demand for New York e1-
change begins to demonstrate that the West has
again becn over trading, folly which It is 10 be
hoped has not been committed to any very conaid-
cradle extent. With our immense resources, It Is
net only folly, 1t is positive ind ine1casshlc
crime to do It.
Amid the stxingency for currency, 1t may aHord 4
grain Of comfort to know that portion Of the bills
of the 1rst National Bank arrived this morning.
But II they were nil hero 1t would not psy half .
dozen, and otten single check on somc OF our
banks, The National currency is beautiful In all
respects and good aa 1t fs bcsutlfu,. Our people,
we presume, will, In a Fety few days each have
one or uore Of these bills In their pocketB They
will be good to put under ones pillow and 60 to
sleep On. No danger Of these bills being worthless
till tie whole nation becomes bankrupt.
New York exchange Is very close, not few OF
the banks having been obliged to pay full current
selling Tates, viz: Il. This with perhaps single
