/ gentleman from Washington informs me that on last
Monday, mr. Chase, with q most m0urniui and hAeg&rd
1 expression On his eountenHaee. approached a lesding
Democrat in Congress, and begged him, for Gods
| sake" TO use his efforts to perSua1e ala party TO support

Democrat replied, that Mr.. ChAse had abandoned prin-
| eiple at the outset Of his ministerial career, and he must
| hope form support from the Democracy.
The effect OF financial ruin upon the North cannot be
measured By the results Of q similar catastrophe
among the Southern people. We are invaded and are
lighting on the defensive. We Cannot help fighting,
and, therefore. submitting to all the Inconvenience, f.

KEGS are lighting an Aggressive war. Thsy are not ob-
ligrd 10 continue the contest. Therefore, when the war
entails on them q 1.-THE Of the Inconvenience we have

the currency. They will never consent t. fund their
money three dollars for two in bonds Of Chass's max

under = rise Of five or six / ddred per cent. 10 the
prices Of prime neeesssries. They have 3 vast pOpula.
lion Of mechanics, factory operatives and working men,
who would stsFve under a system Of inflated prices Snd
comparatively low wages. Hence, a financial smash
up'st the NOrth would J Ing about a tremendous re-
RctiOn against the war, While We could continuu our
defense twenty yesrs, situated as ws now are.
1t is thought here that the depreciation Of the cur
reney In The United States cannot take that slow and
| gradual course that hiss characterized the movement In
1 the Confsdsrsey. The finances will break down sud
I denly with a great crash. The argeBtmercsntle houses
will be swept away, panic will reign In Wan street, and
all the important money centers, society, as we'll as
business, viii DO totally disorgsnizsd for a period, and
the Government will be likely 70 topplc over in the gen
erAl ehsos. To this end, ths United States SEEM 10 be
hurryinR. Lee can strike the fatal blow.

/ Will add a few words about literary matters. ;rhe
sensation book Of the day is the LIFE CT Jesus by NJ
RenGu, Of tbs French academy. The author writes
with great beauty and power, and q supreme sdoIatIon
of the subject OF his work, whom, however. he reeiatds
as "a man only. He has brought down upon him an
avalanche of replies from the Protestant aud Catholic
clergy IN France and England, ana eyen the EmPsror
Napoleon has gone to the trouble to denounca the book
in a letter to the Archbishop Of Paris. Meanwhile. a
fam0us Jewish publishing house in Paris, Levy Frares,
has announced = cheap edition for the working clauses,
and the French priests are laundering against it from
the puipits. Ithss been republished In New York by
Carleton, and the reviews are full Of the subject.
A novel OF the " Uncle Tom " species is having a run
in Yankeedom. Il is called "Cudios Cave" and the
scene 10 laid in East Tennessee, where the hero prac-
tees the calling Of a Yankee schoolmsster, and Is hor-
ribly prosecuted by the seceHsionisiS. The Abolition SITS
are all in tears over the suftsriDgs Of the pedagogne and
an impossible Niger named Pomp. The war storits in
the sensation weekly papers are funny sffairs. Ihad &
