late decline in gold has checked the dis
position of outsiders to come into the
market, and brokers again have the busi-
ness entirely to themselves.
Z TIu railroad speculstions the principal
feature was the purchase of s, 800 shares of
the Cleveland and Pittsburgh Railroad, by
bulls, which had the effect of putting up
the price.
The feeling in the market is generally
strong, almost everything being fraction
higher, but transactions are very limited.
Governments are firm but quiet. There
was some activity in them at this morn

State bonds quiet and without any ma
terial change.
Railroad mortgages and bank shares are
strong but inactive.
The gold market has been quite firm
during the day, with bulk of business, st

and large short interest tends to sustain
the price.

On the Sunday when the news arrived
of the fall of Sumter, a gentleman of our
acquaintance, in whom we place perfect
confidence, took the cars at Washington to
go to Richmond. Upon the train were
Alexander s. Stuart, VIM. Ballard Pres
ton and another member of the committee,
which the Virginia Legislature had sent
up TO Washington TO confer with the Gov
eminent, or more properly speaking, to
see what manner Of man the new Presi-
dent Wss, and to spy out the land.
At one Of the stations beyond Alexan-
dria, quite q crowd had collected, and eager
demands were made for the news as the
train came in. Mr.. Stuart and Mr.. Pres
ton stepped upon the platform of the car
to answer the inquiries. Our informant
noticed one welldressed gentleman, who
seemed to be the spokesman and chief per-
son of the crowd. He was hourishing up
and down the platform with more or less
consequence, and as the train stopped, cried
out, whats the news2"
sumter has fallen" was the reply.
"Pll raise an army and march on Wash
ingtOn," exclaimed the excited individual,
swinging his cane and walking uneasily
about "Pll commence to morrow morn
ing" he repeated, Hsnd raise an army and
take Washington. Hadn't l better do it,
Mr.. PrestOnP
1t was some time before Preston an
swered, so long that our friend thought he
would make no reply, when he said, slow
ly and orsculsrly:
"True courage waits on deliberasion.D
"Wss there any blood she'd" asked the
excited man.
"No"
HWasn't there?" looking down, and
speaking as if surprised. As the train
moved of, he was heard to repeat, 81 shall
raise an army and march on Washing
ton" .-.....
When the train was under vsy. cur
friend asked, "Who is that enthusiastic
man?" "That is Colonel Lee" said Mr.
Preston
And that is the man who has since been
commander of the rebel forces, and who is
represented IS having very reluctantly, and
only after days of prayer, drawn his sword
against the Government that educated and
promoted him. And it must be rernf NJ
bered that this occurrence took place be-

Lee did raise force of about 1900 men
and march them to HarpeTs Ferry to pro-
cure arms. The intention Wss to march
into Maryland, which it was supposed
would rise at once and go out Of the Union,
carrying with it the National Capital,
which the rebels would at once occupy, and
proclaim themselves the Government Of
the United States. 1t is evident that they
did not intend to gOof and put themselves
in the attitude Of rebels, but that their plan
was TO take the Capital and the Govern

of gossip concerning the quarrel between
the Emperor and his cousin, Prince Nspo-
leon. It runs that the crest resenbIsnce
cfthe Prince to tbs first Napoleon, coupled
with the strong doubts which had alWsvs
existed in the family as to the present Ffn-
peror's legitimacy, very naturally made
Jerome feel little sore that his cousin bad
by the force of his nsms alone, attained 10
position which he himself might have
occupied From that day to this. misun-
derztsndings and quRrrels have not been
unfrequent, and it has been said that dur
ing these latter the Prince Napoleon has
on two or three occasions, thrown into tia
face Of the EMPEROR the charge of bsstar-
dy. Indeed, 1t Is believed By not a few.
that the only reason why the Emperor As
tolerated the Prince Napoleon at al is that
the latter has at his command the moss

that he was too old 10 learn. But as am
not so old q man as the General ea1sI learn
and can appreciate your kindness IN thus
greeting me. have been thinking and
have learned 10 notice things, and from the
number of shoulder-st sps about here, and
from the proceedings OF this convention,
Judge you have noticed them too.
Gentlemen, have learned that we have
just passed through scenes caused by most
wicked rebellion that this rebellion was
crushed by the sword and that the peace
we now enjoy is not for day, patched up,
but permanent. The State of Ohio, almost
my nstTve State, has done more to bring
about tins peace Than any other State in
the Union. She has furnished four leading
Generals Of the war, and the best OF SOL
diers for the army, and you have right to
be proud of her record. But take away
these four Generals and the remainder will
compare fsvorsbly with the Generals of
any other State. l have often been asked
if am not proud of that boy of mine. 1
always tell persons, no, for his promotions
have come 50 gradually thst they have
never surprised me. a gentleman once
asked me this question when German
was standing by, and to him the German
thus replied "Wny he could not help it,
he is not to blame"
This sally, in common parlance; brought
down the house, and after sgsin rendering

son" retired, and the business session was
