LnaI Resort.

We hear good deal on the part Of the
rebels of their last resort, by which they
mean the determination to give up Rich
mond and other points on the coast, when
they can no longer defend them, and re-
tire to the mountains and fight for ages if
necessary to secure their independence.
All of this is mere balderdash. General
Grant would be delighted to have Lee
withdraw from Richmond, Bragg from
Wilmington, and Beauregard from Charles
ton. II would save him a great deal of
trouble as well as hard fighting. 1t hap
pens to be the case that the key of the
mountainous region of the South is held
by the National troops IN East Tennessee,
and the terrible repulse of Longstrcet at
Knoxville. by Burnside, gives the assur-
ance that with the forces which can be
quickly concentrated at that point and
Chattanooga by Thomas, the whole rebel
army could be held in check. With
Richmond in his possession, General
Grant would very quickly hold the whole
valley of the James river, and the Union
and not tie rebel army would draw all
the supplies from that rich valley between
the Alleghenies and the Cumberland
mountains. At the same time by holding
the coast cities, our forces would control
every railroad line by which the rebels
ever could benefited, and with our feet
to transfer our armies from one point to
another with the greatest CELEBRITY. The
abandoned railroads, too, would enable
our armies to advance to the very heart Of
the CoAfederacy, and they would be safe
from the dangers which attended Sher-
mans advance on the Georgia railroads,
as the rebels would be unable to flank
them without exposing themselves to
danger from our troops on another line.
Holding Charleston and Savannah, our
lines will be established firmly to Augusta
and the Atlantic and Gulf States would
be permanently separated, and the only
refuge for the rebel army would be the
barren mountains and hills of Southwest
ern Virginia and the adjacent territory in
North and South Carolina, a region in
which the sparse population can scarcely
raise enough food to live on, and there
fore have nothing to spare for the susie
nance of large army. 1t is seen, there
fore, that the last resort of the rebels is
truly desperate one, and when it is all
that is left for them to do, the rebellion
will be on the verge of the last ditch"
1t is to be hoped, then, that the enemy
will soon take this last desperate measure
of which they have talked so loud and
long, and it will be quickly seen to be the
last resort of the traitors, and its voluntary
adoption will hasten their destruction.
But while others may boast of what they
have in reserve, we fear General Lee will
be in no haste to adopt the measure, and
he and his armies will not take to the
mountsins till they are driven from their
present position by our victorious armies
but when they are so driven, as they will
be soon, it will be their quick destruction.

XeIOeB.

On Monday last, Governor Blasdel
vetoed IAN Act TO transfer money from
the General to the Contingent Fund Of the
Senate" and on Tuesday he filed with the
Secretary of State the following:
To the Hon. G. n. Noteware, Secretary
of State: In accordance with the provi-
sions Of Section So of Article 10 of the
Constitution of this State, I herewith de-
post with you Assembly Bill No. 2lS,
entitled, "An Act to provide pay for the
members of the two late Constitutional
Conventions"
The bill came to me from the Assembly
on the 9th day of March, A. D. 1865, and
its return thereto was prevented BY the
final adjournment of the Legislature on
the 18th day of March, \. d. 1865.
I cannot approve this bill for the follow
ing reasons: This is indebtedness of the
late Territory of Nevada, and should be
funded and paid as the balance of the
claims against said Territory have been. I
think it would be unfair TO pay one class
of creditors cash and compel the balance
to wait our pleasure. The Constitution
provides for levying tax specially to pay
the Territorial Indebtedness. and also pro-
vides for tax for State purposes. When
the trainers of the Constitution prohibited
US from levying more than one per cent.
for State purposes, they could not have
intended that any portion of it should be
applied towards paying the Territorial
debt. Said bill, with these objections,
you will lay before the next Legislature
FIRST in the Assembly,, when convened,
for further action. H. G. BLAsDEL,
Governor

Stock sales. .S46O,0ao $75699l 5000 50
The stock transactions seem to have
been less vigorous than in the previous
week. The aggregate number Of shares
sold has been 990S. The tendency of the
market seems to be upward under pur-
chases of stocks for Eastern account.
These have taken off considerable amounts
and supplied money in the market. There
is also growing confidence in stocks as
security for loans under the double oper-
alton of general abundance of money, and
the undoubtedly improving condition of
many of the interests. All the elements Of
improved production exist, while the COM
paratively low prices at which the stocks
are now held make them safe as collat-
eral, and there is no difficulty in obtaining
money on them. Nevertheless il the last
week the Geographic accounts from the
East of fall and violent fluctuations in
gold has induced larger speculations in
Legal Tenders. The sales of these have
reached over $507, 900, or nearly half the
aggregate transactions, at a range of SCI
(956. The average being 54S. an advance
of 81 If cent. over the previous week.
OF this amount so, 900 was sold " short
10000 days. The payments of gold by
the Government were March LIST, semi
annual interest on the l0-40's which bear
5 If cent. in gold. The amount of these
authorized was $2OO,OOO.O0O, and the
subscription for them was left open until
January I, up to which time Sl60, 100000
had been sold. This gives 81, 100000 in
terest due March l, and was paid. This
no doubt aided the downward tendency
in the gold price. There are outstanding
$3.50, 900, 900 of the $40 bonds. on which
the semi-annual interest, amounting to
$l7,400,0O is due May LIST. Of this
amount about $S,000,O0O, it has been es-
timated, is due abroad. On the LIST of
July $4,000, 900 interest falls due on the
remainder Of the gold debt, making S27,-
000, 900 to be paid out by the Treasury in
the next ninety days. The imports have
fallen off so that the amount to be collect
ed from customs cannot be estimated ut
over 100000 in that period. This
state of affairs shows small demand for
gold as we'll for export as for duties, at q
time when large amounts will be required
to be paid out-a state of affairs that tends
to weak market. On the other hand,
there is here speculative accumulation Of
Legal Tenders that may be found difficult
to place. 1t should be borne in mind that
although the intention OF the Secretary to
issue no more Legal Tenders for current
expenses has been repeatedly announced,
vet there are outstanding Sl05, 900, 900
one and two year notes, which by law are
to be substituted for compound Legal
Tenders.
There is to be paid ont Monday and
Tuesday over $3.50, 900 Legal Tenders to
troops.
The receipts of Treasure this week have
been about 100000 of which consid-
cradle quantity went into the Mint, which
opened on Thursday.

1t has been to the lasting disgrace of our
country that during four years Of terrible
civil strife. not one real and earnest effort
has been made for peace.-Ctica Observer.
The Observer is mistaken. Many "real
and earnest efforts" for peace have been
made since the rebellion broke out. The
past few months have been especially
marked by such efforts on our part. Gen.
Sherman made strenuous /" effort for
peace" when he captured Atlanta; he
made another when he. rode through
Georgia; and still another when he cap
tured Savannah. Gen. Thomas, too, made
q bold effort for peace" before Nash
vile short time since-an effort that was
so far successful that some of the rebel
papers frankly admitted that there was no
answering his argument. Gen. Terry and
Admiral Porter still more recently made a
desperate "effort for peace" by taking
Fort Fisher, and closing the last rebel
port. And Grant is now engaged in ne
gotiating peace with Gen. Lee in front
of Petersburg, and with such Aaltering
prospects of success, that even such a
"doubting Thomas" as the Observer must
be persuaded into conviction, if not into
hope.
Nor have "efforts for peace" been con-
fined to our military leaders. President
Lincoln nearly four years ago offered the
rebels "peace" with all their former
rights and privileges intact, on the sole
condition of laying down their arms and
resuming their old places within the
Union. Later he made an "effort for
peace" on the basis of Compensated
Emancipation. Fifteen months ago he
made another effort for peace" by offer
ing Amnesty to the insurgent masses. In
his last annual message lie made still an
other "effort for peace" by announcing
that "the war will cease whenever those
in rebellion against the Government shall
cease to make war upon it"
What more would the Observer have the
Government do: What farther effort "
would it have it make: Get down on its
knees and beg the traitors, who are striv-
ing to destroy the Union, to abandon their
hellish work: Recognize their independ-
ence: Or would it have the offer made
to them to come back, not as erring breth-
rem who have repented of their folies, hut
as insolent masters, whose motto is "Ce-
sar or nothing 49, Albany Journal

ANOTHER REfENTAST REBEL.-The St.
Louis Republican says: Andrew ].
Donelson, who will be remembered as
prominent citizen of Tennessee, and who
was candidate for the Vice Presidency
on the ticket with Willard Fillmore in
1856, recently came within the Federal
lines at Nashville, took the amnesty oath,
and has since been privileged TO go where
he pleased in that State, without let or
hindrance from the Federal authorities.
During his term in Dixie he did not enter
into either the civil or military service Of
the rebels, and did not compromise him
self in support of the cause of secession
further than circumstances compelled.
He passed Cairo few days ago, bound to
Bolivar, Mississippi, where he owns two
or three plantations. Nothing remains of
them, we believe, but the land-the ne
groes, stock and improvements having all
been swept away by the ravages of the
war"

The Briarian arms of these generous as

They have raised up the head that was

nation might live. In this work the
women of our land have been the first and
most earnest. God bless them. While
Europe during the Crimean war produced

shrined in almost every household. can

SUBLIHIITY.

The San Francisco Spectator, which,
under the garb of attachment to the Union,
has succeeded IN living couple Of weeks,
has an article on the subject of the action
Of New Jersey in rejecting the constitu-
rional amendment. There is no particu-
lar point TO the article, it being merely
prophesy OF the defeat Of the amendment,
snd family disguised chuckle over such
q probability. There is one sentiment
alone which deserves passing notice. 1t
reads thus:
1--WE are content with the action OF those
States that ratify the amendment, and with
the action OF those that do not. There Is
something grand and sublime about State
action on this question:.
The perfect contentment of the edl-
tor is plainly apparent throughout the en-
tire article, especially with the action OF
those States that do no: rstify the amend
ment." This delicious contentment We
have no disposition TO disturb. LAS
man thinketh. so he is" With the action
of those States which have rejected the
amendment, TO the great contentment Of
the Spectator, we have no fault to ind, for
the simple reason that fault-6nding would
not mend the matter. The action Of the
Legislature OF the State of New Jersey
was perfectly " constitutional and al

and a soothing among the enlightened

and this piece of business can make her
no worse despised. A rotten egg cannot
well be spoiled. The perfect legality of
her act, and her constitutional privilege to
do what she has done must be admitted,
and there the matter ends. But when the

such connection, he INDUCES in the con-
