The United States Finances.

The finances of the Government is ques-
ton which interests every lover of his coun-
try. The Country has, for some months,
been laboring under frequent and undue f.
nancial excitements, gotten up, principally,
by the bulls and Bears of Wall street,
New York, for the purpose Of speculation /;
and it is therefore important that the policy
of the financial minister of the Government
be better known Mr.. Chase viii in future
bring the power and means of the govern
ment into use in order to checkmate the
movements of the Gold gamblers. He
will also press forward the National Ten For
ty Loan, just as he has begun. not receiv-
ing any temporary Bank loans-but will
take money from the people or the Banks
at per cent. interest, payable in coin, and
redeemable in coin, at the pleasure OF
the Government, at any period not less
than ten nor more than forty years from the
date Of such loan He viii sell the surplus
Gold from customs, after setting aside an
amount sufficient for six months interest, and
use the proceeds partly in sinking fund,
and partly for the current expenses of the
Government, The Secretary looks to the
people to give vitality to the financial schemes
of the government. He appeals afesh to
them to come forward with heart and mon
ey. The Investment he proposes, generous
ly invested for your country cause, is, and
must remain, valid. The political terrific
rial, and financial integrity OF the nation
rests with the people Let the people con-
tinue to sustain the government.

Hon. Glenni VI. scofeld.


We have been carefully watching the
course of Hon. G. W. Scofeld, member OF
Congress from our District, and we feel a
proud satisfaction in declaring that he has
proved himself "a good and faithful servant
of his constituents On all the great ques-
tions affecting the permanency Of the Gov
ernment and the crushing out of the slave
holders rebellion, he has ever been found,
by his voice and his votes, sustaining the
right and opposing the wrong, with zeal
and devotion which should gain him the
unqualified appreciation of every well-wish-
er of our at present distracted country and
we believe we but express the general opin-
ion of his political friends when we say that
he has thus far rendered satisfaction in an en-
inent degree.
We have not consulted Mr.. Scofeld, nor
do we know his feelings or his wishes in re-
gard to the matter, but we trust that the
Republicans and Union men of the several
counties will insist upon him allowing them
to present his name to the people of the
District for reelection. Indeed, his re-nom-
ination seems to be conceded, and we hope
such action will be taken, at an early day,
as will render conference matter of form.

R00K NOTICES.

We have before US some additional speci
men pages Of the American Conflict, By
Horace Greely, which will be the most COM
plete and most valuable record of the causes
that led to the present Rebellion, and of its
progress, that will be issued. We have
every reason to believe that no history now
contemplated, or in course of preparation
viii approach it in ability or in caudor, or
that will give such thorough elueidation
of the conflict that eliminated in this wan
ton and wicked war. In letter from the
publishers, Messrs o. d. Case & Co J
we learn that volume 1,will be ready about
the Ist June, and that the I'd volume will
be withheld until after the close of the war.
The first volume will, however, be
complete history itself, relating mainly to
the origin, progress and consummation of the
purposes Of the traitors. The work will be
sold by subscription alone. Canvassers
wanted in every town and county. Ad-

a YoUTH's HISTORY OF THE REBEL
LIoN.-By William NJ. Thayer Walker,
Wise & Co., Publishers, Boston Mass
The period Of the Rebellion from the bonn
bardment of Fort Sumter to the capture of
Roanoke Island is described by the author
of this volume in a lively and graphic style,
with slight dramatic embellishments. The
narrative is drawn from authentic sources,
and presents series of exciting incidents
illustrative of the valor of our soldiers and
the patriotism of the people. Although
intended primarily for juvenile readers, its
glowing pictures are adapted to command
the attention of all ages, while its attach
ment to the soundest principles of freedom
and the Union is pledge of its pure and
wholesome influence.

Chairman of the State Committee

We announced last week that Hon.
Simon Cameron had been appointed Chair
man Of the State Central Committee by the
President of the Union State Convention.
This is an excellent selection, and the mere
the management of the coming canvass will
not only impart confidence to the friends of
the Union party, but will strike terror into
to the hearts of the sympathisers with the
rebellion throughout our State.
