Lincoln on the Stump-He Makes
a Speech COntradicting Sew


WASHINGTON, Oct. 2O.-The President
was serenaded last night, and made the fol-
lowing speech:
am notified this is a compliment paid
me by local Marylanders resident in this
District. infer that the adoption of the
new Constitution for the State furnishes the
occasion, and that in your view the extir-
patton of slavery constitutes the chiefmerit
of the new Constitution. Most heartily do
l congratulate you, Maryland, the nation
and the world upon the event. l regret
that it did not occur two years sooner,
which am sure would have saved to the
nation more money, and that would have
met all the private loss incident to the
measure. But it has come at last, and 1
sincerely hope its friends may fully realize
all their anticipations of good from it, and
that its opponents may by its effects be
agreeably and profitably disappointed.
A word upon another subject. Some
thing said by the Secretary of State, in his
recentspeech at Auburn, has been construed
by some into threat that if l shall be
beaten at the election | will, between then
and the end of my constitutional term, do
what | may be able to ruin the Govern
ment. Others regard the fact that the Chi
cago Convention adjourned not sine die,
but to meet again if called to do so by
particular individuals, as an intimation
of purpose that if its nominee
shall be elected he will at once seize
control of the Government. hope the
good people will permit themselves to suf-
fer no uneasiness on either point. | am
struggling to maintain the Government,
not to overthrow it. therefore say that if
/ shall live shall remain President until
the 4th of next March, and that whoever
shall be constitutionally elected therefor in
November, shall be duly installed as Presi-
dent on the 4th of March, and that in the
interval shall do my utmost that whoever
is to hold the helm for the next voyage shall
stand the best possible chance to save the
ship. This is due to the people both on
principle and under the Constitution. Their
constitutionally expressed will is the ulti-
mate law for all. If they should deliberate
ly resolve to have immediate peace, even at
the loss of their country and libert es, /
know not the power or right to resist them.
1t is their own business, ana they must do as
they please with their own. believe, how
ever, they are still resolved to preserve their
country and their liberty, and in this office
or out of it, am resolved to stand by them.
l may add that in this purpose to save the
country and its liberties no class of people
seem so nearly unanimous as the soldiers in
the field and seamen atioat. Do they not
have the hardest of it? Who should quail,
when they do not? God bless the soldiers
and seamen and all their brave commanders.

FinanciaI-The National Banks.

NEW YORK, Oct. 20.-The Commercial, in
its money article says: There are indications
that some important notifications of the
financial policy of the Government will be
proposed next Congress. The whole ma
chinery of finance has worked with so much
irregularity, and is producing such embar-
RAISING fluctuations in the commerce of
the country, that Congress will be called
upon to retract some Of its past errors.
The National Banks are not satisfied with
the conditions by which Congress has regu-
lated their action, and at their meeting held
yesterday at the Astor House organized a
permanent organization for protecting their
interests. Among other things against
which they ask to be shielded, is the tax
law, which they maintain operates oppres-
sively upon their interests. The movement
of the banks is in direct opposition to the
views Of the Treasury Department, and
Comptroller Mccullough is understood to
have strongly denounced any protective
combination, and we have information from
well informed sources at Washington that
Secretary Fessenden contemplates recon-
mending to suppress the aIvocation of a
law authorizing the payment of custom
duties in greenbacks, the motive being, by
putting down the price of gold, to reduce
the expenditures of the Government.

Eight ofthe Bank Robber. Caught.

BURLINGTON, VT, Oct. 20-Eight of the
raiders who entered st. Albans and robbed
the banks and murdered citizens, have been
caught, and $4,000 of the money recover
ed. They were caught at Stanbridge and
Farnham, Canada East. The remainder
have been seen on the road, and will prob
ably also be captured.
The ST. Albans Bank and the 1st Nation
al Bank OF st. Albans will both redeem
their bills as usual. The recent robbery
tas not affected their solvency.
ST. ALBANs, Oct. 20-4 p. M.-Capt. Con-
gers party have just returned and report
that they caught the leader of the raiders
at Stanbridge and recovered 100000 in adj
dition to the $4,000 recovered this morn
ing. The Canadian authorities are still after
the villains, and there is good prospect of
the capture Of the whole gang. The Gov
ernor General of Canada has telegraphed
that he will respond to requisition from
the United States Government for the sur
render of the robbers already arrested and
such as may be hereafter arrested. The st.
Albans Bank lost $4,000; the Franklin
County Bank $85, 900, and the First National
Bank $54,000.
All apprehensions of any further danger
at present from the marauders is.entirely
removed. Captain Wickerson, of the Vet
eran Reserve Corps, is garrisonng the bor-
der with l45 convalescents from the hospi-
tails at Brattleboro. Judge Aldie, of the
Supreme Court has Just returned from
Montreal, where he had satisfactory in
terview with the Canadian authorities, and
is now preparing the necessary papers to
bring the captured raiders before our
courts nnder the eXtradition treaty.
Major Austin has dispatched G. l.. Bar
stow to st. Johns, G. E.. in order, if posi-
BILE, to secure the arrest of party of the
raiders who are approaching that place
from Stanstead.
The banks of this place suffered severely,
but the st. Adams Bank announces that
they will redeem their bills.
We learn that in a skirmish last evening
at Lorelesburg four of the raiders were
captured. VIM. Hunt, of the bailiffs of
that municipality, fell mortally wounded
while endeavoring to capture the raiders.
The provincial authorities of the frontier
towns did everything in their power to ac-
complish the arrests of the rascals. Six of
the horses taken by the scoundrels have
been recaptured.

FROM MISSOURI.
ROsecrans I'm Pursuit of Price-NO
People burned at DanviIIe.

ST. LOUIS, Oct 20.--Dispatches from
Gen. Rosecrans say Prices main force is
still east of Blackwater river. This move
ment is favorable to the disposition of our
troops, and increases the chances of Rose
Grams getting a fight out of the enemy.
Late advices from Danville state that no
citizens were burned in the blockhOuse at
that place, as previously reported.
A scout from Randolph and Charlton
counties returned to Macon yesterday,
having killed fourteen of Bill Anderson's
guerrillas.
The Republicans Jefferson City special
says the guerrilla Todd entered the German
settlement in Lafayette county Sunday
night, killed 2S Germans, fired their houses,
and compelled the women to remain in
them until the roofs were about to fall,
when they were allowed to escaped.
Gen. Curtis is concentrating a large force
in Kansas City, with which he will move

Guerrilla Operations ON the POtO-
mac.

New YORK, Oct. 2O.-The Commercials
Washington special has the following:
The guerrillas of Mosby's gang are be-
coming bold in their depredations, and,
guided by secession residents of the coun-
try who embrace every opportunity to act
the part of spies and informers, frequently
raid some distance within the Union lines.
Wednesday morning at one o'clock party
of four of Mosby's men approached the
house of Mr.. Reed, one hundred yards from
Falls Church hospital and seven miles from
Washington, and surrounded Mr.. Reed and
two out of five of his negroes, who were
aiding him TO guard his property. One of
the negroes was shot dead. The gang then
carried Mr.. Reed and the other negro ten
miles to the woods, where they shot and
killed Mr.. Reed and severely wounded the
negro. They then decamped. One of the
survivors managed to return after the mur-
derers left, and guided party OF soldiers
to the spot where his master was killed,
and secured the body.
These outrages so near Washington are
beginning to be regarded as serious dis
grace.
