RnARD OF TRADE.-The attendance
at the Board of Trade yesterday was
larger than usual, and the meeting
more interesting. The Geographic
market reports from New York, Gin
cinnati and Buffalo were read, and the
Secretary instructed to correspond
with the Board Of Trade at Cincinnati
and ascertain what arrangements
could be made in regard to securing a
summary of the market reports daily
from that Board. One cask of bacon
clear-sides was sold on Change, but
we did not learn the price paid. One
thousand dollars in gold were also
sold, to be delivered in thirty days.
The terms of sale, rate, etc., were
private This Board will prove work
ing one, and we believe the meetings
have been generally well attended, but
of late have grown in interest and i'm
portance fast. The room has not yet
been completed, but will be ready for
use in few days, after which the read
ing of the dispatches will constitute
the greater part of the business done.
The time will be taken up almost ex-
clusively with the examination of
samples and making sales. The
price-list will be out this morning
ready for delivery.

GAMBLING.-Gambling is practice
that is sometimes INDUCED in in this
city we are told. A gentleman a day
or two ago was unfortunate enough to
lose one hundred and fifty dollars by
that means. He did not bear his loss
philosophically, but filed an affidavit
to the effect that the aforesaid one
hundred and fifty dollars had been
feloniously taken from him, and, of
course, was successful in the recovery
of the money, after which he failed to
appear against the accused. That is
one way of doing business. We with
hold names of parties this time.

views and rebuts that testimony no
only with his own recollection of what
Mr.. Lincoln told him, but also with
corroborative testimony from others.
We find in his answer to Baldwin the
following letter from Campbell Tarr,
Esq, our State Treasurer:
WHEELING, April 81, 1866.
Hon. John Minor Bolts:
MY DEAR SIR.-Your favor of 10th
instant has been received, and in reply
will state that have received letters
from several persons, and among others,
George p. Smith, Esq, requesting me
to state my recollection of what Mr..
Lincoln said to IL committee of loyal
Western Nirginians who visited Wash
ingtOn and other eastern cities in the
latter part of April, 1861. We waited
upon the President, to whom we were
introduced by George p. Smith, Esq,
of New York. When l was introduced
TO Mr.. Lincoln as a member of the Rich
mOnd Convention, the President eX-
claimed: "Good God, Tarr! why did
not your Convention adjourn to avoid
secession-you Union men having nine
ty votes to torty-tive on the naked
question:" He then proceeded to say
what he had done to prevent it. He
had, through the Secretary of State,
Mr.. Seward, sent to Richmond for Mr..
Summers, or some one representing the
Union element, to come to Washington
to advise with him concerning the con-
dition of affairs in Virginia with n view
to prevent Il collision between the
General and State Governments. Mr..
Summers, it seems, could not leave
Richmond, and Mr.. Baldwin, as the
supposed representative of the Union
party in the Convention, Obeyed the
summons, and repaired to Washington.
I L.. = r
George p. Smith and the members of
the committee whose names l have
given, that he most positively assured
Mr.. Baldwin that if the Virginia Con-
ventiOn would adjourn without passing
an ordinance of secession he would
abandon Fort Sumter. l remember it
distinctly from the fact that 1 had never
had an intimation that any compromise
whatever had been proposed by Mr..
Lincoln, and, with the exception of
Mr.. Summers-although have repeat
eddy inquired of the members of this
portion of the State-nO one else had
heard it. From this it would seem that
Mr.. Summers had heard it,
In reply to the Presidents question,
"Why did not your convention ad-
journ ?' among other reasons stated
that did not believe that that portion
of the convention which favored seces-
sion, could they control the masses
would accept of any terms short of sur
render.
1 have not nOW the time to extend
these remarks further than to say that
your testimony before the COngression-
nj Committee is substantially what Mr..
Lincoln said to your committee, and at
the earliest opportunity will write you
concerning Mr.. Baldwin's status, in
January, 1866.
am, respectfully. yours,

IT is known to many of our readers
that a controversy is now going on be-
tween John B. Baldwin and John Mi
nor Bolts, as to certain proposition
made by Mr.. Lincoln to the former in
1861, and through him to the Union
men of the Virginia convention. That
proposition was, to vacate Fort Sumter
in case the Virginia convention adj
journed sine die. Baldwin it seems did
not communicate this proposition to
the Union men of the convection, but
took the responsibility of declining it.
He now, of course, seeks to qualify that
responsibility as much as possible, for
he feels it too heavy, but Mr.. Bolts de-
termines, on his part, to make him an
swerable at the bar of public judg-
ment. The testimony of Mr.. Baldwin
before the Congressional Committee
has already been quoted, in its sub
stance, in our columns. Mr.. Bolts re-
