The New York Post of the afternoon of
18th inst. says:
The loan market is sfarly active at Ga
Z. The money lenders and stock specu-
iators continue their efforts to increase the
temporary perturbation in the money mar
ket, partly with the view of getting higher
rate of interest and thus making more
profit on their loans, and partly to depreSs
the stock market, the sensitive values of
which usually respond very speedily to
changes in the ease of money.
The chief causes to which the tighten-
ing of the market is attributed are first, the
locking up of idle greenbacks of the Treas
ury, which are drawn out of the banks by
sales of gold and by drafts on repositories
secondly, the anxiety of the national banks
all over the country to make themselves
strong against the first of October, when
they prepare their quarterly report
thirdly, the movementy of foreign capital
which has been lending in the street on
,call, but has been invested ia government
bonds for expectation, and has been called
in from the borrowers. Most of the causes
above referred to will probably be tempo
rary in their duration, especially the
movement of the Treasury, to which the
chief attention Of the public seems to be
attracted
The New York Times of the 10Th inst.
says;
The national banks of the neighboring
cities are fully prepared for their quarterly
statement to the Department at Washing
ton on the LIST of October, and the country
national banks, East or West, have made
20 acquisitions upon the New York banks
for extra assistance, for the good reason
that, as rule, they have not expanded
their business between July and October
more than they did between April and |
July. 1t is not forgotten that the July |
statement was made up with the utmost |
ease, and reflected a much stronger posi- |
ton than was anticipated-to the disap- |
pointment of certain spectators on the |
Stock Exchange, who, as late as the 22d |
June, predicted what did not occur-a |
squeeze in money and heavier fall in |
stocks before the statement was made |
good. Money was then Coz per cent, but |
not tight, and stocks went up 10 per cent. |
instead Of per cent. down. The trade de- |
mand for currency is now more active than
in June and July, but the position of the
national banks is quite as free from pres
sure or embarrassment in making up their |
quarterly returns, and are as little charge /
able with imprudent management.

SDeciaI Notice.

ON THE OPENING OF A BILLIARD
Room it is generally the custom, as every
one knows. to have several champions present to
entertain the public FOR FEW HOURS; but on
account of so much suffering among our people.
we thought proper to give the orphans of this
city and poor of Chattanooga that benefit, which
we have done for the last two weeks. And
again, as it is sometimes the custom of giving
premiums, such as watches etc, and having
proof of the last two weeks business that the
citizens of Nashville appreciate our efforts to
help the needy. we have therefore concluded to
give ten per cent; of our profit to the poor of
Nashville, from the LIST day of April, 1867, up to
October LIST, 1867, (six months) which amount
will be RENTED weekly to the Mayor of Nash
vile. We hope that the amateur billiard play
ers and the public in general will appreciate the
cause and sustain it.

The RAIDS LAST. NIGHT.-Tbe carpet
bag clique aud the contumacious natives
both held meetings last night. The Al
den demonstration was at the foot Of Capt.
tol Hill, while ScoyePs champions held
forth at the top and didn't get as big a
crowd. Secretary Fletcher, Scovel, Mer-
Ger, Thurneck, Gen. Cooper and others
spoke for Scovel, and Tuthill, Thomas,
Otis, Dick Brien, Judge Cary ct ais made
night hideous for Alden. Fletcher denied
being a rebel denounced the Aldenites as
army gamblers, bounty jumpers, bummers,
suffers and Office seekers; said BrownIow
was only one man, and warned the colored
men against bummers and the enfranchise-
ment of rebels. Gen. Cooper vowed the laws
in regard to Judges and Clerks of Election
should be enforced
The Aldenites recounted their martial
deeds to their gullible hearers, cursed the
boilers, and sung the same old song about
everybody else.
1t is said that Wetmore has Withdrawn
in favor of ScoyeI.

ADELPHr THEATER.-The matinee yes
terday afternoon for the benefit of the
Summer Street Theater troupe was very
poorly attended, though "Othello" was adj
mirably brought out. The "Duellist" was
played last night to good house. The
piece itselfis fine comic drama, and some
ofthe characters were represented with great
power and ability. Harry Everett was in
one of his happiest moods, while Mr.. Wal
dron, as Robert the Gardner, was a trne
type of the ignorant rustic. The CAV and
sPrightly Mrs. Oates charmed the audi
ence by her coquettish airs, while Miss
Dargon, as Julia the Countess de Clare~
vile displayed high degree of tragic
power and brought the house down with
bursts Of applause

a Ieremiade from the workhOuse

Perhaps the annals of no community,
ancient or modern, ever contained so rare a
document as that emanating from the unfor-
tunates of the city workhouse, and calling it.
self an appeal to the public" 1t was pub
blished by city contemporary yesterday
morning, and but for lack of space, we would
give it entire. It's original and unique, and
strongly illustrative Of the moral distemper
that isprevailing Some fifty odd unfortunate
individuals Of both races find themselves
girt in by four walls garnished with iron
ratings at their necessary openings, and
forthwith address the public in railing &C.
cusation against the law and its minister
They are frank enough to admit that some
OF them are frequent violators of the law
that they are notorious disturbers of the
public peace-that they are in the habit of
setting at defiance the statutes enjoining
public morality and decency but the ne
cessary restraint that the officer of the law
deems it his duty to impose upon their
pugilistic, bibulous and libidinous propen-
sites, is, in their judgment, outrageous ''ty-
ranny." Doubtless they think so. There
is trite couplet which says that culprits
never feel the halter draw, with good opin-
ion OF the law. We truly commiserate the
condition of these people, and would not
jest at their misfortunes, but the workhouse
is, nevertheless wholesome institution
and, the. punishment Of offenders to be re-
formatery, which is its chief end, must be
exemplary, and rigorous enough TO deter
nd fr1,o lo 6
crime.
The Yengeful abuse of Recorder Foster,
which is the chief feature of this remarka-
bic paper, is grossly unjust, and should be
condemned by every good citizen. A
healthy public sentiment should shield the
characters of the officers of the law from
the denunciations of the victims OF the
law. That gentleman is laborious, able
and upright Judge. If his sentences some
times seem stern and harsh it does not
spring from wanton desire to ipfict pun
ishment out of proportion to the offense,
but in order to protect society, and admin
lister his Office for the public good. He
may not be infallible but no man who |
knows him will impute unworthy or mali |
cious motives in his official conduct In |
the thousands Of cases coming before him |
for adjudication, he has possibly committed |
errors. 1t would be strange if he had not. |
But we venture nothing in saying, that in |
the future, the minds of this community |
will revert to his administration of the |
Recorders court, as one of the most eff
Gent and salutary that the city ever had. |
This much, as a public journal, we think |
is due from rs in depreciation Of the work.

While humanity continues to be infrm, and
man is prone to err. and the consequences are
visited upon the unfortunate, he should early
seek relief from the misery thus entailed.
And the man who devotes his time and talent
to the relief of this species of human suffering
is not less a philanthropist than he who seeks to
relieve any other affection to which man is sub
ject; for true philanthropy looks not to what
caused the trouble. but what will cure it. DR..
Coleman has devoted large portion of his time
to the cure of the class of diseases mentioned in
his advertisement in to-dsy's paper. He has
duly qualified himself BY study and experience

Gated in our midst for several years. and the
