Il Is curious 10 watch the Copter-
heads and Fremontcrs and see hsw,
starting from positions the nicst antag.
onistic possible, they gradually spr
proach each other, ike twp bodies
drawn together by > common attrae-
ton. As ILLUSTRATING this process, We
Give couple Of ext1actss FIRST, from
the New York World, which says:
Fremont is unequivocally for Free
Speech, Free Press, the Right OF
ASYLUM. the Monroe Doctrine, and the
Guarantees of Personal Liberty. There
i nothing in the Slavery questian to be
weighed for one moment against these.
60 far as the radicals consent to stand
aoon these principles of the Cleveland
platform. they have q bond Of sympathy
with the Democratic party and with all
true patriots. ffAt
Next from the New Nation, the Ere
mont organ in New York, and edited
bv one Of his staff It says:
There is so little difference between
this party and the Democratic party
that i would be easy 10 adopt com
mon ticket, which would sweep every
/ thing before it.
But that is not all A wellinformed
Washington correspondent adds the
! following relative to- the entsate cord'ate
Il Is ascertained that Fremonts let

member of the Democratic National

in several important particulars. Inc

with his views, despite the oppositioI
of some of Fremonts radical friends.
At a recent meeting Of the Copper
heads Of Coles county, Illinois, the SAM
parties recently guilty of attempts a
instruction in the interest Of JEFf
DAVIS, declared that they were prepar
ed to support FREMoST.
But our readers must not suppose, 10
all this, that the General stands an
chance Of getting Copperhead support
That party is merely coquetting wit
him, hoping to make a very large spll
in the Union party. But they are mi

The oopperheads dislike our eandi-

MAJOR GENERAL MEADE.

Rumors, evidently founded upon misapprehen-
sion, having obtained currency to the effect that
the health of Gen. MEADE had become so much
impaired as to induce bis resignation of the COM
mand of the Army of the Potomac, and gone so far
as to designate his successor, We are happy to be
able to state, do on good authority, that this
distinguished officer has entirely recovered from his
recent indi,position and that he has never enter
tanned the remotest intention of retiring from po-
sition in which, We may add, he has secured the
confidence of the country and army, and where he
has earned such high military reputation. The re-
cent visit, of Gen. Meade to this city, as we un-
dersand, have been for the purpose of consulta-
tou and to give tes imony before the Committee on
the Conduct of the War; and not in view of any
contemplated separation from his command He
was expected to return this morning to the army.

THE GOLD BILL.

The bill which has passed the House of Representa-
tves for tho sale of the surplus gold the Treasury of
the United States is still pending in the Senate In
speaking upon this subject yesterday Mr. SHERMAN stated
that the amount OF gold in the Treasury amounts to
$l967079 and that at the average rate OF receipts this
will be increased the lst of July next to the sum
OF SAL 9i2 654, from which there must be deducted fer
the Ordinary disbursements to be made in gold the sum
Of $20S49 700, leaving u the Treasury at the above
date something like $2l 100000. In addition to III
S2 0C00 in the vaults Of the Treasury Department
there is retained 10 the Now York banks as reserve u
S2l S5 03t making aggregate of $40 600 600 in
gold practically withdrawn from the ordinary avenue af
trade. The object which Mr. SHERMAN seeks TO accom-
psh to throw the market this 500 600 owned
Government and to that extent relieve the pressure upon
It, II bis amendment prevails Mr. SHERMAN thinks that
the present large margin tween the value of gold and
paper currency would be reduced and specuation be
somewhat stayed The Senator recognizes the e1raord-
nary powers would be conferred the Secretary OF the
Treasury by his proposed legislation but says that in times
Of extraordinary powers must be conferred and that
there help for it other than the restrictions that ad
ditiona legislation would impose. The bill will come Up
again to-day for further consideration.
