TIE FINANCIAL ETYEM ABROAD or THE FAIL on
RIcHNoND.-The news by the Africa OF the adj
vance Of fve-twenty bonds In England to 641s q
651s and the decline of the rebel loan to 20 rs,
on receipt Of intelligence ofthe fall of Richmond,
indicates the powerful effect which that event
suddenly exerted upon the public mind there.
The capture or surrender Of Lees army was
in all probability not then anticipated. We
are therefore led to infer that upon it's sur
render becoming known in Europe Q consider
able further advance in federal bonds would
be the Immediate result, attended by a CORE
spending decline in the rebel loan, which
must soon cease to have market value.
It is not unreasonably eonjectured in Wall
street that the knowledge of Lees surrender
will cause fve-twenties to advance beyond
seventy on the London Stock Exchange, and
hence the expectation that large amounts Of
these securities would be returned to us is
likely to be disappointed, and those who sold
them short here in anticipation Of being able
to buy at a profit in the foreign market,
will find themselves cornered. The return
of our securities from Europe would,
however, have exerted less effect
upon their price here than is generally sup
posed; for they would have been readily
absorbed by dealers and investors. The effect
would have been felt in enhancing the gold
premium and the rates for foreign exchange,
which has declined under the European
advices. To suppose, however, that gold will
materially decline in consequence of the favor
able aspect of the market for our securities
abroad would be erroneous The condition OF
the finances of the country and the still rapidly
augmenting debt are not calculated to sustain
very sanguine hopes of speedy appreciation
of the currency; but it is satisfactory to con-
template the great change for the better which
our finances have undergone during the last
few weeks, and the generally improved conf
dence in the public credit both at home and
abroad.

TIE REBEL GENERAL LEES OPNIoNs-THE
OLD VIRGINIA FAILAoY OF STATE RIGHTs.-In a
communication from one of our army cores
pondents we publish this morning the sub
stance OF q conversation with the rebel General
Lee on the war, State rights, the prospects Of
peace, &c. These views, coming from the rebel
General-in-Chief, will be read with universal
interest, although they are only in modified
form-the same old story of Southern rights,
which the Hon. Ben Wood has been hammering
at for the last two or three years US the quntes-
sence Of democracy.
That perncious heresy of State rights, which
places the action of a Stale, as nationality,
above the sovereignty Of the United States, has
been the fatal blunder to General Lee, in COM
mon with all his leading rebel confederates
He holds that lie had TO go with his State
TO fight out this question Of State rights;
but, as the rebel chiefs have lost the
game, he thinks they are ready to give it up
State rights, slavery and all-if they are only
excused as having been engaged in legiti-
mate war for an unsettled constitutional
abstraction. In other words, he thinks that
there is no treason in levying war against the
United States by citizens thereof, if it is done
by State authority. This is an old Virginia
heresy, inherited from the time Of jefferson as
Presidential candidate. He had discovered
that the French Jacobin Club, as against
England and John Adams, Washington and the
old federal party, was good party hobby; and
eo ha taI nd al ,x,;tl
radical platform Of State rights, into power.
Next We find this heresy cropping out in the
Hartford Convention al an angle OF forty.five
degrees; next 1t turns up red hot in South
Carolina notification, and next in secession. a
Southern confederacy and suicidal rebellion.
has been treason in this thing from the begin
ming, or the seed of treason.
So much for General Lees doctrine of State
rights. He next tells us that slavery has been
mere secondary issue in this war; that, in
fact, the South has held on TO the institution
more from considerations of humanity to the
negroes than anything else. We suspect, how
ever, that the profits of slave labor 10 the cult
walton Of cotton, sugar, rice and tobacco had
something TO do with this revolt for Southern
rights, though it is hardly worth while now to
debate the question. Indeed, we cannot dis
cover that our correspondent has extracted
from General Lee single idea of any practical
value, except as illustrating the shallow pre-
fences upon which he entered into the service
OF JEFF Davis, and the impossible concessions
which he expects to treason in behalf Of
peace.

y z Arbitrary Arrests. !

Weiirect the readers attention to the
debate we this morning reproduce that oc-
CURED few days ago among tAdministra-
ton members, in the lower House of Con-
gress, on the subject of Arbitrary arrests,
It is some satisfaction even at this late date,
to find this subject engaging their atten-
tion, and provoking their most sweeping
denunciations. 1t is cheering 70 see men-
Der Of the prominence of WINTER DAVIS in
the Administration ranks rise up in his
place, and boldly declare, that he wishes 'it
to be understood that there is power high
er than the military authority, whether that
authority be lodged in the hands of aleu-
tenant, or Of a Provost Marshal, or of the
President Of the United States, and that
power is in Congress" .......... 81
Ever since the commencement of the
war, the Democratic party has insisted that
by virtue of the Constitution of the United
States, the military was subordinate to the
civil authority, and that arbitrary arrests
are in conflict with the express guarantees
of the fundamental law of the United
States, and subyersion OF our liberties.-
We do not claim this protest against arbi-
trary arrests by Administration mem
bers as a concession to the correctness of
tine position Of the Democratic party; but
we hail it as an effort to make amends to
Liberty, that has been violated with brazen
impunity, and draw from it the encourage
ment to hope that the day is not far distant
when civil authority shall exercise its au-
thority nall fullness. ss.........

Al New Paper i'm Zane,s.YiIIc.

The editor of The GAINESVILLE Courier has
started new paper in that place, which he
calls "The Ohio Family Journal" and
claims that it is strictly a literary and fam
lily paper, taking no part in politics. The
very first issue contains the following:
Jusr TRIBUTE TO THE WEsT.-In notic-
ing the appointment of Mr.. Chase, Chief
Justice, The Boston Traveller very kindly
remarks:
s'The West is getting its share of big
things. Ithas the Presidency. it will have
the Vice Presidency next March, it has the
Chief Justiceship, and it has the Depart
ment of the Interior and the Attorney
Gneralship, in the. Federal Administration,
also the Postmaster GeHeralship. Well, no
body complains-bM tce ask iUestern men to
observe hoto much better they fare noto than
they did under Democratic asceadepcy. The
West has done SO splendidly in the war, as
well as, in politiee, that there is astrong dis
position to see her position in the national
government made one of very promising
character" 80 ~.
This Is about as mean fling at the Demo-
cratic party as we find in the worst Of the
Administration papers. Even SHRYocK's
Courier don't often get off anything mean
err, 1t is hoped that Democrats will not be
fooled into subscribing for this Family
Journal, under the plea that it ''takes no
part in pelitics." IN,
