Hit HIM AGAIS.-Underwood comes in
for the following cutting allusion in letter
published in the Louisville Journal con-
corning the trial Of civilians by military
tribunals:
alt is the proudest praise of the judicial
bench of America, that wherever the sub
ordinate holders of executive authority
have wished to deprive citizen of life or
liberty contrary to law, they have been
compelled to create tribunals of their own
10 effect their purpose, and have never
succeeded in finding judge 1.-THE infa-
nous Underwood alone eXcepted) who
would prostitute his office to become the
supple tool of their displeasure or their
malice"

There are no changes in money matters
in this city to-day. The gold quotation
maintains its regular relation to that in
New York.
NEW YORK.
The gold market is not so buOyant to-
day. The sales opened at l443i and, with
little change during the day, closed at
144%@l45.
The unfavorable news by the latest TO-
reign steamers has caused the late un-
steadiness of the gold market.
The decline in gold to-day is no doubt
the result of the telegraphic account of the
Africa's advces from London to the 9th
May. She reports revival of confidence,
and that cotton is firm. The arrival Of the
large shipment of gold by the Scotia, with
the statement that others would soon fol-
low, had exerted a very good effect in
England.
The prospect of the meeting of the pro-
posed Congress did not seem to excite in
the press great deal of hope for peace,
in face of the preparations for war which
were continued.

WASHINGTON, June 6.-At the meeting
Of the members of the Cabinet yesterday,
the Fcnian question was the chief topic Of
discussion. and it was finally resolved
unanimously that the Government, having
solcmnly pledged its faith to preserve the
neutrality laws, was bound by every con-
sideration of national courtesy to take
some immediate and effective measures to
prevent recurrence Of the Fenian demon
STATIONS. The Acknowledgement was
accordingly directed by the President to
issue the following circular to district
attorneys and marshals Of the United
States
ATTORNEY G GENERALS OFFICE,
WASHINGTON, ID. c., June s, 1866.
By direction of the President, you are
hereby instructed to cause the arrest of all
prominent, leading, or conspicuous persons,
scalled "Fenans," whom you have proba-
BILE cause to believe have been, or may be,
guilty of violations of the neutrality laws
of the United States.
JAMES SPEED, Acknowledgement.
Fenan prisoners at Buffalo are released
by order of the Government-the men on
their own recognizance and the officers in
five hundred dollars bail-all to appear at
Canandaigua when required, and to sub
scribe that they will not take up arms
again. Official adviccs received leave no
doubt that large body of Fenians still
threaten Canada. There is great alarm in
Montreal, and a monetary panic and run
on savings banks. Gold is at high pre-
mium.

permitted to accumulate up 10 the present
time. The demand In February was met
hv the sale Of some $4,000, 600 ut a
nTemium OF between thirty.sevcn and
thirty EIGHT per cent, after which the rate
gradually declined to twenty -four and halt
per cont, hut advanced again to near thirty
per cent. beyond which point IL was not
deemed advisable II should go; aud as
there was little commercial demand, no
sales by the Government were necessary
until uniavorable financial intelligence was
received from Europe. Upon the receipt
of this intelligence the demand became
active, hut II was met without n heavy de-
plction Of the Treasury. On the receipt,
however, of the disastrous news by the
Cuba, the demand assumed serious cha-
ractcr. This news reached New YORK iate !,
in the afternoon, but before the stock ooaro
had closed. II was then too late 10 OBTAIN
instructions from the department., ana SAFES
were rcsolutcly continued amid unparai-
lelcd excitement.
.Iod there been time for Mr.. Van Dyck
ia advise me in regard to the news brought
nxcr by the Cuba, and TO receive my IN
S,rnctions, the probability is that sales
would have been suspended before so large
an amount of coin had been disposed of ;
but in the light of facts since developed, !
CONCUR in the opinion expressed by him,
that suspension of sales before the de-
maud had been freely supplied would have
aided to the excitement, and resulted In
panic which would have produced serious
ana extensive disaster.
II received the intelligence of the unex-
u, cted heavy sales with regret, but have
since become satisfied that the action OF
the assistant treasurer and his agent was
not only, under the circumstances, cour-
accous, but iudicious. This opinion, as |
| am advised. is entertained by most OF the
soundcSt merchants and bankers OF New
| York. The correctness or incorrectness Oh
3, il can be better determined when the ehec'
I Of the sales, and the heavy and perhaps
consequent shipments OF coin upon the
! English market, and the reactive influence
! thereof upon our own, shall be fully aScer-
timed"
