GOV BRowNLow has issued a prOcla-
nation convening the Legislature in ex-
traordinary session on Monday the 18th
inst, when ho will make known to the
members "thr purposes for which they
have been called together 4 good deal
Of curiosity is manifested to know what
has induced the Governor to impose this
additional burden upon the tax payers,
who have already been called upon for
such heavy contributions 1t is thought
the Governor has got Ku~kluX rather
badly GA the brain, and that he desires
to uyeuee himself upon the white people
of the state, especially of the Middle ard
Western portions, who have failed to dis
cover ia his administration the wisdom
Of a Webster, by quartcring his militia
upon them This is, indeed, a terrible
punishment, as the good people of Frank.
I'm, Madison, and other counties viii
readily testify Then the Governor may
take it into his head to blow upon
somebody IN regard to the July interest
matter There has been foul play upon
the part of some parties who ought 20
sedulously guard the character aud IN
terest of the state, and already recimina>
tons are being hurled about with the
most reckless disregard If the Cover,
mo- knows anything about this Disgrace
ful affair, he should out with it, let it

The Comptroller sends US very ILL
natured letter in regard to a paragraph
We copied the other day from the New
York Times touching conspiracy Of
State officials and railway officers to
bring about the default 10 the payment
Of the July interest which has occurred
That this sficer may have no grounds to
complain Of injustice, we print his letter
and give him the full benefit Of his indig
nant denial Of the Times charge While
we had heard nothing to justify the i'm
pIiestion Of the Comptroller and Seere-
tary Of State by the New York Times in
the conspiracy it Processes to have dis
covered, We had no Information which
would warrant us in fatty denying the
charge Instead, therefore, Of exhibiting
temper, the Comptroller should have
thanked US for calling attention to this
matter, since it afforded him an opportu-
nifty to set himself right before the
public, by broad denial OF the grave
charges preferred by the Times Some-
body connected with the State govern
mentgave the information, which brought
about the default of interest. This much
is charged by Comptroller Blackburn
himself We trust we are not to be
charged with impertinence and Islander
by him, whoever he may be, because we
have permitted the Comptroller to talk
much more pointedly about him than the
Times did about the Comptroller and
Secretary Of State We trust however,
this letter of the Comptroller will elicit
the information the public 50 much de-
sire, and this is, who dealt the we'll di,
rected and fatal stab at the credit Of the
State, and what the parties interested

The New York Post of the afternoon of

The New York Post Of the afternoon of
the 1Ilh inst. says
"The loan market continues to work with
great eas7. There is still more money
offered on governments al 8 per cent. than
can be employed. On railway and mixed
collateral from 1904 per cent. is paid. Dis
counts are dull, with rates unchanged from
Yesterday. That money will be in greater
demand in few weellsseems probable from
the large amount of four moths paper
offering at the banks. The merchants
making this paper, have no present use for
the money and would probably leave it at
the banks for a month, yet are unwilling TO
submit to discount Of GOT per cent. to be
secured against the pinch which usually
attends the making up of the October
quarterly statement"
The New York Independent Of the llth
inst. says Of the drygoods market g
| The first week in August has proved
Iduller than had been anticipated among
drygoods men, and few weak holders Of
domestic cottons have been disposed TO ease
| themselves of their heavy stocks to a small
concession of prices but there has been no
I decided change in the market since our last
report. There is some uncertainty still felt
az to the ruling prices Of raw cotton for the
next ninety days, but the sudden rise in
gold of last week, and the growing conyic-
ton that higher prices will yet be realized
this fall, tend to prevent fall in the mar
ket value of all kinds of manufactured
goods. The continued favorable reports Of
the harvests from all parts of the South and
| West make il certain that there will be an
unusually good fall trade. The country is
not oYerstocked with goods, and the West
will be abundantly able to pay for all pur-
chases. r
The exports ofdomestic cottons to foreign
ports from the port of New York since the
| commencement of 1868 are in excess Of the
same time in 1857 but 800 paekages-the
whole amount for 1868 being G39l.
| In brown sheetings and shirtings the
transactions have been small but there has
been a slight decline in prices, which will
soon be regained, however, by the ordinary
| demands of the season. On the whole,
prices have been pretty steadily maintained
by The manufacturers and the commission
houses.
No change Of importance is TO be noted
| in bleached goods, Prices are evenly main
tanned, except that in some Of the best
makes of shirtings there has been slight
advance.
In prints there is an improved business,
and the stock Of desirable styles in first
hands is too limited to admit Of any anxiety
on the part Of holders. The demand for
dark work Of new patterns is steadily in
creasing, and business in prints will soon
be lively. Ginghams are also in better
demand for the fall colors, and prices are
hardening.
In wooden goods Of all descriptions there
is a marked improvement especially IN
blankets and dannels. For cloths the de
mand is better, and prices are steadily
maintained for coatings. There Is good
demand for aatinets at steady prices, and
fancy eassimeres sell readily at quOtatio DE-
