THE PANIC AID Irs EyFEcr.-The excitement
and 1uttering among the stockholders and out
side speculators which followed the fall Of Fort
Fisher continued in Wall street yesterday, and
shares were freely offered at further decline
on Saturdays sales Of two to three per cent
It will be seen on reference to our money
article to-day that this sudden depression is not
confined to New York, but that it has disturbed
the ofishoots of Wall street in other localities.
The most notable feature, however, which has
attended the panic, and the one which creates
the most rejoicing among the people, is the
effect which has already been produced upon
the prices Of breadstuffs and provisions. In
Chicago we learn that wheat fell fifteen cents
per bushel, which is equivalent to decline Of
sixty cents barrel on -four, and that pork
could be purchased two dollars per barrel
under former prices.

The Fall Of Prices.

The New York World, in an article Oh
the price of gold and other commodities,
says: "The community is certainly mis-
taken if they expect the prices of commod-
tiles to go very low while the currency lis
so redundant as it is at present." We
think the World is partially if not wholly
right. Those goods which are bought ex.
clusively with gold, and the place OF
which, when exhausted, must be SUPPLE,
by means of gold, ought, it seems to us,
follow the price of gold.
The Secretary of the Treasury, how
ever, said that when paper fell below gold
in its value, gold ceased to be currency,
and became q commodity subject to the
laws affecting commodities generally.
Gold is wanted for little else than foreign
purchases, and payment of duties; and
all legislation lately has tended to diminish
it's use in that direction. 1t may fall in
price then, simply from diminished de-
mand, without specially affecting oommod-
tiles generally. They will depend, as the
World says, on the volume of the cur
rency. Let not people be surprised if the
prices Of articles generally does not travel
down with gold.

Good Advice.

The New York Times, moved thereto
by some recent expressions of Parson
Brownlow's, suggests to the Parson that
the kind of illumination which might have
been comparatively unobjectionable in a
much abused loyal Tennesseean, in private
life, is not so in the Governor of Ten
nessee. 1t therefore adjures him to
moderate little his usual fierce
ness, and remember his new station.
The advice is good and necessary, and We
hope may be adopted. If the war is con-
tinued, perhaps the Parson will do well in
his new position, but If, as is generally
supposed, the war is near its end, and the
work of reconstruction and cementing the
shattered fragments is to be entered on,
unless the Parson restraints his zeal and
moderates his expression, We can scarcely
imagine more fortunate selection for the
position lie holds, both for the State and
Nation.

Captain, now Admiral, SEhMRs has writ
ten to friend in England, who has pub
lished bis letter in the Morning Herald.
He thus refers to the State of Texas, which,
he thinks, has profted rather than suffered
from the effects of the war, and will, in all
probability, become the great storehouse
and mandatory for the supply of the
needs of the confederates:
The State of Texas alone has within her
limits all the materials, and is fast getting
the appliances for equipping and main
tanning armies; and when you reflect that
she has three times as much territory as
the empire of France, and that countless
herds of horses and beef cattle wander over
her boundless prairies, you can imagine
with what contempt this warlike people
regard the insane threat of subjugation,
If our armies were driven tomorrow
across the Mississippi river, We could still
fight tue enemy for century to come in
Texas alone.

The following important war bulletin

rather old ir date, will be found of interest
as illustrating the progress of SHERIDAN:
WAR DEPARrMENr, }
WASHINGTON, March 1880 P. M.S
Major General Die: - -
Major General Sheridan reports, on the 10Th
inst, from the bridge of the Richmond and
Fredericksburg road, across the South Anna
River, that having destroyed the James River
Canal as far to the east as Goochland. he
marched up to the Virginia Central Railroad at
Fallsville, and destroyed it down to Beaver
Dam Station, totally destroying fifteen miles of
the road. General Gustav was then sent to
Ashland, and General Devin to the South Anna
bridges, all of which have been DESTROYED.
General Sheridan says that the amount of
public property destroyed In his march is enor-
nous. The enemy attempted to prevent his
burning the Central Road bridge over the
South Anna, but the 9th u. 8. Cavalry charged
up to the bridge, and about thirty men dashed
across on foot, driving off the enemy and cap

about /, 400 men, including battery OF
eight guns under command of Capt. Ma

der the immediate command of Major

Tuesday next, to put his battalion in first

Gen. Grants Plans.
The Washington correspondent of the
New York World March %, writes as
follows on Gen. GRANTS plans.

The Washington correspondent of the
New York World, March %, writes as
follows on Gen. GRANTS plans:
The grand plans of the Lieutenant General
commanding the army are now clearly de.
veloped. He has exhibited most heroic and
enduring patience, while each detail was be-
ing executed by his able lieutenants, not the
least OF whom Is Sherman, and now is about
to reap the rewards of his well-planned COM
binations. He has out-maneuvered Lee in
this the final strategic combination, and COM
PEELED him to commit the fatal error of defend.
ing his capital while its military supports
were falling one by one around him. He has
hemmed his adversary up In the State of Viz.
ginia, and will compel him to fight or sur
render. He has caused Sherman to sweep
from Atlanta to Savannah, and thence through
South Carolina into the heart of the Old North
State, in such a manner as to penetrate the
very vitals of the rebellion. Provident to a
degree, he has provided Sherman with a
base by the timely capture of Wilmington.
and enabled him to form a junction with
the victorious army of Gen. Schofeld, under
circumstances which were in the highest de-
gree encouraging to the gallant men compos-
Ing his army. He, at timely moment. dis,
patched Sheridan on a raid upon the enemy g
channels of supply, and SO thoroughly was the
work done, that Richmond was thrown into q
panic, and fears of los safety were seriously en-.
tertained. He brought Sheridan back to the
north bank of the James for the purpose of
consultation, and now has sent him upon an
other raid to meet Fitzpatrick, who is already
far in advance of Sherman's line of skirmish-
srs. Thus he has swept Lee and Johnston
into a position, where either or both can be
attacked with very great probability of sue.
cess. He has placed his left wing in such a
position as to be in q very short time within
communication with the extreme right wing
of Sherman's army. He has literally barred all
the avenues of egress by which the foe may
escape to the south or west, and now awaits
him with open arms. The crisis cannot be
long delayed, and ere this reaches you the
crash of a decisive battle may be resounding
on the plains of southeastern Virginia. Thus,
by dramatic fitness the final battle of the
war will be fought upon the ''sacred soil OF
the State which drank the blood of the patriot
heroes of July, 1861

Our New Postmaster.

DR.. J. II. SrEwARr yesterday received
notification that he had been appointed
Postmaster of st. Paul. The necessity of
q change, so far as the interests of the
public are concerned, is not apparent; but
if change must be made, there is no one
who will object to DR.. STEWARDS appoint
ment, for everybody believes that he will
be an accommodating Postmaster, and that
the business of the Office will be conducted
as it should be. We have no doubt
he will give entire satisfaction to the public.
We shall not speak at present of the retir-
ing incumbent of the Office. His neck is
barred to the uplifted axe Of the political
guillotine. When his head rolls in the
dust 0 f the arena, there will be an occs-
sion for a proper tribute to his memory.
and for an estimate Of the loss which the
world of letters has sustained by his IN
timely decapitation. I'D
