The Financial Crisis ill the Morrill,
How will the Result of tho Presf-
dental election Affect il.

The New York Herald has a long article
treating on the, financial crisis in the North,
and spcculatcs as to how it will be affected by
tho result Of the Presidential election. 1t
says:
Many arc disposed to place undue impor-
tance upon tho result Of Forthcoming election.
The argument of the Mcclellan side is that if
Mr.. Lincoln should be reelected the war is
likely to be prolonged over longer period than
If the Democratic candidate is triumphant. and
this great increase of the public debt, and much
further depreciation. of the currency will be in
evitable. The argument Of the opposite side is
that if Mcclellan is elected public confidence
III the national credit will he shaken, and pol
ittlans of the Democratic party will begin to
talk of measures tending to repudiation But
both these arguments arc prcjudiccd, and the
future of the national finances depends less
upon the sucnss of either candidate than
many arc disposed to believe Whatever the
result of the contest may be, the present finan-
cial policy OF the country must be changed if
the ultimate disasters which it is inviting arc
to be avcrted.
The first duty of Congress is to take into Sc
rious consideration this important subject: The
public debt is undergoing augmentation at
rate SO enormous that further paper money cx-
pansion will aggrayatc the existing evil in rapid
Iy increasing ratio Yet the policy of paper
money initiation is being steadily pcrscvcre,I in
and the incubus is daily becoming yrca,cr-
Our national dcht is nearly two thousand mil

Chase have been repeated Ly his no less incom-
pctcnt successor, and arc likely to be ,ontiu-
ued till legislation steps in and provides "A
remedy. Whichever, therefore, may be the
dominant party, the future Of the fnanrcs. of
this country MAY be easily forsccn, unless
measures arc adopted to countcract the cur
rency evil and SO improve the value of the pa

TWO REBEL STEAMERS ON LAKE
ERIE- WHAT WILL THY EOi

The Government has received information
that two armed rebel steamers, fitted out on the
Canadian coast, are at large In Lake Erie, and
when last seen were of Bass Island.
By the terms OF treaty with Great Britain,
the United States are prohibited from maintain
Ing more than one vessel of war in Lake Erie.
The gunboat Michigan is there, and proa
test was some time ago entered by the British
Government that her armament exceeded the
entire number Of guns agreed upon for all the
lakes on our northern border. A compromise
of that matter was effected we believe.
But the Michigan is required at Johnson's
Island, where the rebel prlsoncrs are confined,
and there is nothing to prevent the rebels from
destroying the commerce of the lake and laying
Buffalo under contribution.
We presume tile pirates would compromise
on election day with the Butraloniaus upon
the condition that their entire vote should be
cast for Mcclellan and Pendleton.

The Sentiment OF the Country.


WAsHINoros, ID. c Sept. 90, 1864
To hs Editor ofhe National RepubiteGn;
Having spent the last two or three weeks in
the North, In the States of New York and
Pennsylvania, have taken some trouble to
ascertain the sentiments Of the people concern
ing the coming election.
l hnd no sentiment Of base Surrender to
traitors In either party among the masses of
the people. I do not find any Republicans
willing o surrender to Mcclellan, or vote for
him. But there are very many individuals who
have followed the lead of the lamented Senator
Douglas who are supporting Mr.. Lincoln. One
individual In Elmlra, N. T., who voted the
fusion ticket in 1850, told me he knew thirty
persons in his acquaintance who had voted the
Opposition ticket In 1850 who were now for
Mr.. Lincoln.
On that division Of the Northern Central
railroad, between Williamsport, Pa, and FL
mira, N. Y, there are two passenger trains
each way, daily, and on those trains, for two
weeks past, there has been vote taken for
President, and not once in all that time has
the ChickAhominy ditch-digger had mi jorlty;
and, sometimes, Mr.. Lincoln'S vote has been
two to his one. These are straws indicating
that the wind Is blowing right. TRAVELLER.

evening In the Tragedy OF NArUese, or the Last
Days OF the Pompadour.r This piece has a most
exciting and thoroughly romantic story and main.
tains the interest OF an audience from beginning
to the end.
tits telling In incident, well dsAued In Ghsrac-
ter, and entertaining in dialogue 1t Is well put
upon the stage and the performance does great
credit to the corps dJdHdiique. The character OF
MArquiEe de Pompsdour, As portrayed by Madame
Ponisi Last evening, was a brilliant success and
was received with enthusiasm by large and dit
eliminating audience.
Mr.. J. c. Mcclellan, a new name at Growers,
made a decided hit 10 the part of "NATeisIe Ro-

Bsnduann, who played the character for series
OF weeks In New York. We regret that our linn
