The FENIANs.-A large portion of our
space, this week. is taken up with the
Fenian forward movement on Canada.
We are unable to say whether this move
ment is genuine. or whether it is only for
the purpose Of creating new enthusiasm,
md enabling the leaders to make another
heavy draw on the funds. We have no
idea that anything of definite consequence
will result from this affair, except getting
a good many Fenians into hot water; but
We have no objections to the Canadians
realizing what hostile raids across the
border are like. Some of the Fenian in.
vsders are even making St. Albsns their
rallying point. Still better, large pro.
portion Of them are officers and soldiers
of the late rebel army. The boot is on
the other leg now. r.t

fallen braves, and to the mind of the soldieY
they are heroes alike.
The gray jacket and the blue coat sleep
side by side, aud some day we will rear q
monument in honor of their deeds of hero
ism. Even now we find the portrait of
General Lee hanging by .he side of General
Grants. It is but natural that the surviving
soldiers should respect those against whom
they fought 1t matters net, whether wear
ing the badge of defeat or victory; thss
heart is base indeed, when it refuses to pay
tribute to bravery. But we have no in-s1
tention Of entering iHto full discussion of
the question. Our object is simply to
notice lithograph likeness, recently pub
lished, Confederate General, ''Stonewall''
Jackson, the idol of his command, and the
hero of many fight. We call him hero
because he led brave men to battle, and,
whether he retired from a field of defeat, or
proudly waved his banner in the hour of
victory, those agoinst whom his columns
charged behaved with gallantry, and fought
as only heroes can. 1t is no honor to cross
swords with an arrant coward, and who
will claim that no laurels were won by the
Federal soldiers during the four years of
war? ''Stonewall'' jackson, then, was a
military hero, viewed from a northern, as
well as southern, standpoint, and it is but
natural, that all who can appreciate bravery
should desire 10 preserve his counterfeit
presentment. It will find place in many
homes, and by the side of Mcpherson,
Wadsworth, Lyon and others, it will hang
suspended against the wall.

The Currency, Trade, and Prices.

The Currency, Trade, ana Fr1ces'
Advices from the various centers of com
merce of the country, says an exchange, in
dicate general decline in prices-hardly
anv of the lea commodities of trade
being exempt-and the n sa'asr are tnss !lS
prices will continue still further Co<Ses4el.e.
In the present disturbed and unsettled con-
dition of our national finances it is difficult
to form an opinion of the future condition
of the markets approaching correctness, or
at all satisfactory. Congress is drifting
along without giving the subject much at
tention, or none at all; and, in the mean
time, the country is flooded with green
backs and what is worse, theories, pro and
con, as to the effect of measures likely to
become laws. Contracting the currency,
thereby bringing values to a sTecie basis,
it is held by some, will be the order of the
day; and, on the other hand, it is held that
Congress would perpetrate a monstrous
wrong by adopting policy so fraught with
disaster to those who have realized prince
ly fortunes during the past four years, out
of the misfortunes of the country. By
contracting the currency, prices will neces-
sarily decline, but by creating additional
National Banks, and keeping aAoat the ir-
redeemable trash which now af1icts and
affrights the nation, it is possible to keep
prices at something near the present fc-
ticious and burdensome figures. The sub
ject, however, is full of perplexities and
uncertainties as to check ventures, and con-
sequently, spectators are Withdrawing to
safe quarters, and merchants, at least the
shrewd and far-seeing, ale adopting poll
cy of greater caution than has for several
years characterized that portion of our
population. Under these circumstances, it
is not surprising that the general markets
of the country are dull; nor need it surprise
any one if they should continue to exhibit a
want of activity for several months to come.
1t is quite evident that very grave mistakes
have been made by statisticians in regard,
not only to the amount of the principal sta
Piles on hand in the country, but also as to
the demand for them. It is beginning to
be observed that there is more cotton,
breadstuffs, cattle and hogs in the country
than Is shown by the estimates made some
months since. The consequence is. cotton
is declining in this country and in Europe.
The Pulaski citizen. [volume] (Pulaski, Tenn.) 1866-current, 1866-02-23

Breadstuffs are declining and weaker in all
of the markets of the country. The hog
crop is largely in excess of what it was be-
ieved to be some weeks since, and asa
consequence, prices of provisions tend to
lower figures. The South has learned to
live more economically than was its custom
before the war; but, were this not the case,
she has not the wherewith to purchase
largely. There is a large surplus in the
country of the items we have mentioned,
and, as soon as the ice-fetters are removed
from the rivers OF the Northwest, It's bread
stufs will find their way to the markets of
the country, and contribute to bring prices
to living standard, and this will be the
result, though Congress shall ignore all
Legislation upon the question of finances,
thereby keeping afoat the present enormous
amount of greenbacks. In this condition
of things there can be no question as to the
wisdom and prudence of caution in every
description of mercantile transactions. That
a crash is coming, the best informed pre-
dict and believe, and he who keeps himself
In the best condition to meet it, will have
the best reasons for self-gratulation when it
has passed.
