The Alabama Delegation.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.-The Alabama delega-
tion, headed by Governor Smith, had another
interview with the President to-day. johnson
reiterated the assurances of his earnest desire
to secure peace in Alabama. Secretary OF War
scho6eld was present at the interview, and the
President told him to instruct General Meade to
redistribute his troops in Alabama, and II he
has not sufficient force to call for more. Scho-
field will prepare letter of instructions to
Meade, copies of which will be given to the
deleg alton tomorrow.
An Arrant Humbug.
Everybody is amused at Delmar's recent array
OF figures, showing the deficiency in the Trea.
suIy Of over one hundred and fifty millions.
Delmar has long been regarded by the Treasury
officials as an srrant humbug. ecretsry
McCulloch pronounces his figures false IN every
respect, ard entirely at variance with official
data on the books OF the Department
OF for Philadelphia.
Large numbers of persons will leave here to-
morrow for Philadelphia, to attend the demon
stration OF the Boys in Blue.
Converts
from Democracy to Republcanism continue to
increase daily in the departments here, as
well as among the Federal oficeholders
throughout the country.
Pleasant, fr True.
Information received here states that J. W.
Frazier, Assessor of Internal Revenue for the
First district of Pennsylvania, has expressed his
intention to support Grant. As Frazier has
heretofore been an ardent Johnson man, the
President and Secretary of the Treasury are
greatly enraged at his desertion, after obtaining
his appointment on the ground of his fealty to
my Policy"

Despatch TO the Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 29.-The Alabama Legis.
lative Committee had an interview with the
President by appointment to-day, at which the
Secretary of War was present. The President
acceded fully to the demands of the Committee,
which were in effect, that the Federal power
would aid the civil authorities in suppressing
disorders, and in sustaining the authority Of the
civil government of the State.
1t Is not true that the Committee have
received dispatches from Alabama siuce their
arrival, leading them to ask that q regiment be
sent to Alabama. in addition to the troops
already there. Tho Com mmittp pe and the Presi
dent agree that General Meade has sufficient
number of troops to meet present wants.

BOSTON, August 22.-The State Pro

liquor law, and closing as follows: I'm
pressed with those views we urge you

will truly represent the Republican
party, and who in its behalf will de-
mand, with no ambiguous phrase, the
repeal OF the present liquor law and 8
return to the former policy of the COM

every interest of the State and the

Money Matters in New York.


Atthe close of the past week in New
York, money was fairly active at and
per cent on call, with considerable
doing at higher rates. During the
week the banks were daily sending
liberal sums of currency to their West
srn correspondents, the remittanees for
the week aggregattng about So, 600, zoo,
or nearly the same as the week before.
Thus far the banks have remitted
mainly in bank notS, but now they
are obliged to draw on their legal ten
ders.
In Government securities there has
been a-IuII. The decline in prices has
failed to increase purchases by inves-
tors; but appears, on the contrary, to
have stimulated The inclination to sell.
At present, bonds are flowing upon the
market in excess of the current de-
mand, the orders from the country be-
ing almost entirely to sell. The city
banks have not yet begun to sell bonds
to any noticeable extent, and their
usual sales upon an active money
market have yet to come. The recent
discussions respecting the payment of
flve-twenties In currency and the re-
duGtion of the interest upon the debt,
have produced a settled impression that
something will ultimately be done re-
ducInR the value of bonds, and this
feeling appears to be not yet fully rep
resented in the prices of securities.

Rns1ness ma PoIIffes.


The trade and industry OF the coun-
try have seldom been more interested
than now in political campaign. The
issues to be decided affect them vitality.
They have suffered long and seriously
from DELAY in reconstructing the Union.
and their prosperity depends upon the
maintainanca, undisturbed, OF the re-
suits already attained. 1t is not fam
ciful, speculative or q partisan inter-
est that is now to be upheld against the
Democracy. The political tssue Is
whether what has been done shall be
perfected, and what is yet to be done
shall be finished, or whether all things
shall be again unsettled, aud the cOun-
try forced back to the edisorgRniZed con-
dition in which il was left by the rebel
lion. While politicians contend over
the legislative aspect of this question:
the manufacturing and mercantile
classes must see in It peril which mem
aces them with formidable difficulties.
For them the choice Is between peace
and prosperity, or the overthrow of re-
construction TO be followed by wide
spread disaster.
The national credit, too, is involved
In q way 10 which no business man
should be Indifferent. Gold speeula-
ton is possible simply because OF the
uncertainty which the issues ofthe con-
test entail. The preservation OF Union
authority over rebel pretensions is one
duty before ne; the protection OF the
national credit from repudiators and
infiationists Is another duty, little less
urgent. It is idle to talk of lowering
the premium on gold while our bonds
are sold at their present low rate In the
London market; and equally idle 70 ef-
feet an Improvement In the vhlue OF
bonds until the party which proposes
to violate the public faith be put down.
With the value or gold huctuating in a
manner which embarrasses every man
in trade, and adds to the burdens
of every consumer, there can be no
general and sustained Improvement in
the condition or prospects of trade.
The first step to the restoration of busi-
ness health, therefore, Is the re-estab-
Iishment OF cOnfidence; and this Will
be reached through Republican victory.
