NEW YORK, March 1.-THE Times in
its money article says the bank statement
Saturday is expected to show a continual
ton Of the locking-up process Of the gold
clique, bat, the cause being artificial, il is
not likely 20 accomplish the object sought
to be attained. Great efforts will be made
to get the reserve Of the banks below the
legal limit, by keeping about 100000
off the market. The present tactics Of the
gold clique, if continued much longer, will
result in increasing largely the supply of
gold at this point. Already gold is pour
ing in from California, aud more is on the
way from Canada and Europe. 1t is esti-
mated that 100000 gold coin has ar
rived here from San Fran cisco since Jan. l.
From all sources the banks are hkely-to
gain gold in the future, and the gold clique
may learn to their sorrow that the time for
a gold famine in this country is not near at
hand

Decreasing the present difference in IA
vOr of Nashville market, as compared with
st. Louis, p cents per hundred.
1t is the difference in rates which con-
trolls trade, and not the rates from any one
particular point. A Southern buyer before
purchasing Western produce takes into ac-
count the prices in the various Western
markets, then the rate from each point, and
buys in the market from which he
can lay it down at the lowest
figures in his own store. Prices may be
high, and the rates Of freight high from
all Western markets, but in that case the
price Of such produce is just that much
higher to the Southern consumer and not
any lower to the Western seller; so that,
whether the rates are high OF low to any
given point, is not Of so much consequence
as that the difference is maintained in
favor of our home markets as compared
with markets west Of US, shipping the same
kind Of produce into the same South
ern markets. Therefore, any such leg
islation, while it might possibly reduce
the total rates from Nashville, would
also I0rqelv reduce the difference now
existing in favor Of Nashville, as shown by
the above figures, and hence would really
reduce the price Of Tennessee products in
stead of advancing them, as cOntended by
ssB. S. r." and thus injure not only the
Nashville market, as demonstrated, but also
all other markets in our State. The steam

SPECIAL t" THE PIocHE DAILY RECORD
BY WESTERN UNION LINE,
Eastern Dispatcher.

New YORK, August 1l.-At meeting
of the Police Board yesterday the dis
cussion of Saturday as to plots and
counterplots among the Commissioners
was continued. The question of verac.
ity was raised between Commissioners
Smith and Disbecker. Smith asserted
that Disbecker offered to support his
measures and vote for him as President
OF the Board if he would put stop 10
newspaper attacks on Disbecker. Com.
missioner Disbecker denied he had said
anything of the sort. and accused Gen.
eral smith of demagogism in condemn
ing the Generalization of the police
force.
The decree in regard to public sale of
property OF the Northern Pacific Rail.
road was so amended yesterday that for
the present SO much of the Commands
property as consists of lands granted and
conveyed to it by the Government, can
not be sold, for the reasons that a large
part of the lands have not been SURVEYED
and can not be distinguished from the
public domain; no deed has been given
the Company of that part of the land
which has been surveyed, aud in case of
sale the Company could not give valid
deed to the purchaser. 1t is said the
Government refuses to give deed to
those lands because the Company de-

clines to pay for the survey. The orig
inal decree in providing for application
of proceeds Of sale, said they should b,
applied to payment of all sums due io
moneys borrowed to pay interest upor
mortgage debts or to pay for labor ant
material. for repayment of which any
former or present officer of the Company
or any other person at his or their in
stance is surity, not to exceed 100000

\ letter from Rome says the Pope has
given special orders for preparation for
the reception Of the new American Car
dinal.
Another Italian letter states that no
proclamation of unity, no uniicstion OF
political and administrative Legislation
can destroy the traditional acts of seven
States, with seven different capitals and
local interest, aud at the present moment
Italy has revolyed herself into her COM
ponent parts, and with the exception of
few common points of interest the
inhabitants of each State will occupy
themselves with the affairs of neighbor-
ing States neither more nor less than
with those of foreign countries.
The news Of the triumph of the Cleri-
cal party in Venice, Florence, Genoa and
Verona, have raised our hopes consider
ably; indeed, almost the only topic which
interests all Italy at the present moment
is precisely these municipal elections. In
Venice the Liberals allied themselves
with the Clerical party against the Mod
crates and succeeded; but in Florence and
Genoa, especially the latter city, the
Moderatss allied themselves against the
Liberals, and obtained a still more bril-
liant success, for out of 6, 1863 votes, 3, 482
went to the urn; and out of sixty town
councillors elected thirty-seven Clerical
and but twenty-three Liberals succeeded.
The entire people are anxiously awaiting
news of the Neapolitan elections, but the
result is certain that the Cericals will
carry the day, and for the first time since
the annexation of 1860. The Moderates
and Clericals have openly and avowedly
joined hands and formed an offensive
and defensive alliance against the Liber
als, who have hitherto administered
providence. An explanation of this
change is, that nearly all the Communes
of Italy are over head and ears in debt,
and the citizens who clamored for fetes
and monuments and public gardens new
markets and boulevards, now that the
bill is presented they are appalled, at the
SUN total, blaming their Mayor and
Council, and looking around for new
men, but they find none in their own re-
spective parties. The populations are
tired of the Moderate rule in politics az
in local affairs; they dread the advent of
the Liberals, and both claim alliance of
the party recognized yesterday as their
common foe.
