from Illinois, announcing that the long roll
has been sounded, and the comrades are il

for the designs of the politicians who appear to

figured at the commencement Of the war, ''on

FINANcEIN THE SENATE.-Senator Sherman
is reported as having said yesterday: 1.-The de-
crease in England in three hundred years in
the intrinsic value of pound sterling, was
nearly six hundred per cent. while all other
property had increased" Is this so indeed
If it is so, will Mr. Sherman tell us if gold was
valued as - to Of silver, three hundred years
ago, what is the value Of gold now, having
fallen six hundred per cent.
This statement will astonish Gladstone and
D. Israeli, the late Chancellors of the Exchequer
In short will some expert stock broker or other
financial pundit tell US how any. thing can fall
six hundred per cent? Moses.

The SOUTHERN RICE CROP. From the Sa-
vanuah (Ga. News & Herald Feb. 20. The
closing up of the rice transactions this year
gives very favorable showing for many Of the
rice planters, in comparison with those cnga-
ged in raising other products. We have heard
of.very few failures to make fairly rcmunera-
tive crop, and some have realized large profits.
Those who were forced to hypothecate their
crops Internationally, or to sell at the low prices
ruling in the commencement OF the season, pro-
badly suffered somewhat Those who could
hold on are now realizing, we should say, 40
per cent advance on the early prices, for clean
rice, while there is still larger advance IN the
nominal prices OF rough rice. The Boston
houses, to obviate in part their prospective
losses by the failure OF the India crop, have
entered the Southern market in strong com Pc
tition, and buy most of the crops in our rice
growing regions largely in the rough, often
giving advances of 81 to 81 % as soon as bills
of lading are msde-sales subject to order, SO
as to give the producers an opportunity to hold
on if they wish. We saw three vessels loading
with rough rice for Boston yesterday. With q
good season this year, we anticipate larger
crops than last season, since we know of in
stances where land not used for several years is
being taken in. I'D.

SIR: I have just been called on by Col; Ial.
P. Shaffner, president of the United States
Blasting Oil Company, with request to look
ND five cans Of nitro glycerine, which were de-
livcred on an order from regular customer
but which order is now pronounced to be i lor-
gerry. The quantity of the oil in the cans was
about l65 pounds-a quantity sufficient to b oW
up the st. Nicholas Hotel, in New York.
He fears that it may have been obtained IN
the way it was for some foul purpose, as he
latterly has had several applications by un-
known persons for the purchase OF the article,
to whom he refused TO sell, owing to then G.
ing strangers, and would not explain satlsfacto-
riIy the purpose for which they wanted it.
He informs me- that although it is given out
that the stone walls of the CLERK enwell Prison
were blown down with gunpoWder, the mate
rial used was glycerne.
Now, sir, the 1G5 pounds has disappeared
from New York, and, if intended for mischief,
it is more likely for use in Washington than
elsewhere [ give you the information to put
YOU on guard. Very respectfully.

yesterday in Richmond. A Geographic dis
patch from that city gives the following
account:
"The members Of the Convention and large
audience were addressed in the Capitol tonight
by Gov. Pcirpoint, Judge Rives and John NJ
Bolts. Peirpoint advocated universal suffrage
and the advanced ideas of the Radical party.
He denounced the University Of Virginia as
the hot he'd from whence sprung the ideas that
carried Virginia into the rebellion. Judge
Rives advocated property and educational
qualification for suffrage In the future he
opposed the election of the petty officers OF the
State by the people. The State Conservative
Convention was denounced as destructive in,
stead Of conservative. Mr.. Bolts said that il
the President had been impeached a year age
there would be no necessity for a Convention
now. He advocated disfranchisement, cspcci-
ally of leaders Of the secession movement.
