With curtains from the loom Of fancy;

With most poetical precision--

its disclaimer Of all i'll feeling, or personal
unLindness toward the unfortunate Secre-

The public confidence, which was grstlfsd
by Mr.. Fessenden's appointment to the Treas
ury, was based on HE long occupation in the
financial legislation, rather than on positive
performances. His administration has been
drifting without plan, and his reeommends-
tious have helped it TO impair public conf
dence, which is public credit. There has
been strange Inconsistency in these recon .
mendations. lie laid down the bad policy Of
issuing more Government currency notes, and
asked for unlimited suthority to issue. He
argued that the rise Of gold aud other com
modites was not caused BY the imitation of
the currency, aud objected to more currency,
because il Inflated prices.

Of the customers to supply gold opay interest
had been reached, aud he ntimsied that the
Government might be compelled, by great
national emergency, to suspend the payment
of interest in gold, aud Immediately there
upon he offered $l20,0OO,O 900 more Of gold
bearing stocks. He succeeded in depressing
the public credit Tour per cent at once by u
single partial and temporary resource While
he intimated the possible inability of the
Treasury to pay its gold obligations, he sold

that Mr. Fessendens ncumbency of the

The masterly ability which the Gin

to the iron-clAd and gun-boat question,
has been transferred, by brilliant flank

Administration Of the National Treasury.
Becoming weary Of the policy Of the father
of greenbacks. it congratulated the coun-

knew that he accepted the position un-
willingly. but as there was "nO patriotism
in accepting il temporarily" it supposed
of course. that he designed to accept it
permanently. ITO take il as an alterna-

BuiIer, Ord, and the Contra
banda.

MACK" Of the Commercial, is evi.
IDENTIFY inclined to bring General Ord, the
successor of Butler, to grief. He charges
him with prohibiting rations to the teach
ers of contrabands at Fortress Monroe and
Norfolk, thus practically compelling them
to abandon their work. This is most
grievous offense, and is attributed, by the
correspondent, to an arbitrary desire to ex-
hibit the difference between West Point
and other points. The correspondent has
therefore made a point. He obviously
understands the temper of the Govern
ment, and he knows that all he has to do,
to compass the destruction of Ord. is to
impeach him on the contrsband question,
and he sets himself to his work as fol-
lows:

A Curious Souvenir of the War-Jeff.
Davis Coffee Set.
From the Richmond whig, April II. !

Ia From the Richmond Whig, April III
We examined on Saturday, the mech
ansm of one of those curious souvenirs
of theswar, that, like their recipients, scan
not escape history" We allude to a
fancy coffee or tea set, we do not know
which, which formerly graced the man
sion of President Jefferson Davis, but
which was disposed of at auction, with
silverware, &C., by Messrs. Bell, Elicit
& Co., Pearl street, a few days before
the evacuation, when Mfr. Davis conclu-
ded to "decline housekeeping and make
tour for his health. The coffee or tea
set in question is perfect miniature or
facsimile of railroad locomotive, with
tender attached. The locomotive boiler.
receives the coffee or tea, makes and dis
charges it through a spiggot, steam
whistle indicating when tea or coffee isl
ready. The boiler of the locomotive is OF
porcelain, and the figure Of the fireman of
same material, appears on the locomotive,
vigorously ringing the bell, which, we
suppose, means the breakfast, dinner, OR
supper bell. The tender, which is an
admixture of brass and other metal,
carries the sugar in an elegant sugar
caisson, with goblet for cognac and stun
ming small cut glasses. The sides of the
tender are embellished with racks for ci-
yars. The most curious continuance Of
Ill is secret muslc-box. located some
where in the tender, which, being set,
plays eight popular airs, sufficient in
ength to entertain a supper, dinner, or
breakfast table. 1t got obstreperous on
and refused to play "Dixie."
The whole establishment, engine and
ender. rests on two beautifully enameled
waters. AS we have said before, the arti-
lie was disposed of at auction, and pur-
,hased BY an Italian, A. Barratti, who,
eyeral days ago, disposed of the same to
Colonel Friedman, of Philadelphia, a
gentleman ell.knowH in and out of the
