No. 47 Broad street, Secretary Cuase’s Rerort.—A New York letter of December 10th thus alludes to the report of the Secretary of the Treasury: The long agony of financial circles is over, and the report of the Secretary of the Treasury is at hand, It relieves the apprehensious of our most cautious bankers, who feared Mr. Chase would recommend an unlimited issue of demand notes, the effect of which would be as seen in the history of French assignats, Continental money and irredeemable bank money the world over, to produce ultimately public distress. The report happily relieves all apprehensions on that score, as Mr. Chase evidently objects to these demand notes as much as the bankers themselves, though all the speculators in the country are iu favor of them, as the the obvious tendency would be to give us . glorious good times for six months or a year ending up with a terrible smash when the . day of settlementcame. The recommendation that he really makes, for the Government to furnish currency to the different banking associations, rather puzzles financiers here, and was, no doubt, not intended to be very definite, It is evident that so far as Mr. Chase is concerned, the measures of the various bills which he will urge for the adoption of Congress, in relation to this . matter, will be founded upon sound finan. cial principles, so that we shall leave as little as possible on the future. We shall doubtless have all the advantages of a great National Bank without many of its disadvantages. At least, the objection to the old United States Bank, that it was an engine of political influence, will not be ap. plicable to the new method of remodeling . the currency of the country. . Tuk WAR AND Sitavery.—The St. Louis . ee . . News, of December 10th, bas the following ' . very sensible remarks on the proposition for a war of emancipation: . The pain with which we have watched . the attempt by radical partisans at the . North to make this great war for the Union . a fierce and revengeful war for emancipa. tion, and the earnestness with which we have endeavored to combat the scheme— are not inspired by any sentimental love for African slavery, nor by any sensitive regard for the rights of the South, but by a sincere love for the Union, and w desire to prevent the intrusion into the struggle of elements that will embarrass its friends and . jeopard its existence. We desire to let slavery take care of itself—to leave it to circumstances. If it is to perish in the course of this war, let it perish, and the conseqnences be upon the heads of those who imperiled it by the commencement of a wanton revolt, But we would not bave its overthrow made an object of the war, because . that would add to the difficulties and em. barrassments of the struggle, by uniting the South and dividing the North, and renderjing the unltimate issue uncertain; and in enemas NUMBER 563. The Union “Conspiracy” in Arkansas. The Little Rock State Journal of the 29th November, notices the arrival at that city of twenty-seven prisoners, members of a secret Lincola organization from Van Buren county. They were lodged in jail for safe keeping until tried by the civil author: ities. Forty others had been arrested, and the names of the most of the members learned. The Journal referring to the “‘conspiracy,’’ says : It appears that information of this organ * ization was given to Gen. Burgevin i. a citizen of Van Buren county, and a volunteer in the Confederate service. The names of the leaders are well known, and if those who are in bot persuit of them ever succeed in overtaking them, it wonld be well to acquaint them with some of the peculiar uses of hemp. We have been permitted to peruse the constitution of this organization. Itisca}led a ‘Peace and Constitutional Society.’ They have 700 members in Searcy, Van Buran, Newton and Isard counties, and 1,700 in the whole State. They have a regalar system of signs and passwords, and are furnished with supplies of money from the Northern camps. The constitution makes it vbligatory npon every member to hazard bis life in aid of another in distress, and the penalty of expressing any of the secrets of the organization is death. Gen. Burgevin, who was mustering in a regiment at Carrollia ton, as soon as he heard of the conspiracy, at once burried down to the counties above named, to take such steps as might be necessary. At Clinton he saw Col. J.B. Lews, who assured him of the correctness of the report. Col. Lewis had called out a guard of 100 men, and was at that time making arrests, and Gen. Burgevin, being satisfied, from his well known energy o! character and fearless nature, that the matter was in good hands,? feft the control of . the whole affair to that officer. . Col. Lewis reports that those alrsady ' taken were well supplied with arms and ; ammunition, and infers that those still at . large are equally well equipped. Gen. Bur. gevin reports further to the authorities in . reference to the disaffection of the people . in that section, and gives the names of eertain individuals engaged in fomenting dis. content among them. Those who have been taken acknowledg¢ their crime, plead nothing extenuating, but only beg for their lives. Our authorities, however, are fully informed upon the whole subject, and we hope, if necessary, the extremest measures will be resorted to in order to suppress all treason, and secure to the people immunity from civil war in their midst, Fortress Monrog.—Gov. lietcher, 1a, ments the inability of Virginia to get possession of Fortress Monroe, Io his late message he says: . It is to be regretted that Fortress Monroc is not in our possession; that it was not as easily captured as the Navy Yard and Har {addition to this, it would leave on our . per’s Ferry. As far back as the 8th of Jan. hands, after the war, a question not inferior . uary last [ consulted with a gentleman in magnitude and importance to the war it. whose position enabled him to know the They are . self—the question of what to do with four strength of that fortress, and whose experi. million ignorant, barbarous freed Africaus. NAVIGATION OF THE AMERICAN, — The Steamer Defiance, Captain Gibson, left the levee on Saturday afternoon at two o’clock, . . for an excursion up the American river. . In consequence of the injuries received by her collision with the Sacramento and Yolo bridge she was not in good running order. She passed Lisle’s bridge—carried away by the recent flood—and reached a point be. low Norris’ bridge. While in sight of this . structure it yielded to the force of the . flood. and a portion of it was carried off. . The Defianee took from various houses on the river near Rabel’s tannery and Barnum’s slough some five women and fifteen . children and brought them to the city. The . ence in military matters enabled him to form an opinion as to the number of men . that would be required to capture it. He . represented it to be one of the strongest fortifications in the world, and expressed . hia doubts whether it could be taken unless . assailed by water as wellas by land, and . simultaneously. He etated emphatically and distinctly, that with the force then in . the fortress it would be useless to attempt . ite capture without a large force, thoroughly . equipped and well appointed. At no timc . previous to the secession of Virginia had we . a military organization sufficient to justify an attempt to take it, and events since that occurrence demonstrate very clearly that with our military organization since, and . now existing, it has not been deemed pru. dent to make the attempt. Defiance made another excursion up the . American yesterday. Itis presumed that . one object of these excursions is to look . . out an elligible epot for an embarcadero— . . @ second Hoboken—to which goods may be . taken by steamer from this city and forward. the docket the case of Charles vs. the United . ed by cars, teams, etc., to the mountaine. . States, on the ground that on account of his . She had not returned at dusk last evening. . being a citizen of a seceded State he was to . —[{Union, Jan. 13th. be regarded, in the absence of proof to the . contrary, as being himself in rebellion .

No. 47 Broad street, Secretary Cuase’s Rerort.—A New York letter of December 10th thus alludes to the report of the Secretary of the Treasury: The long agony of financial circles is over, and the report of the Secretary of the Treasury is at hand, It relieves the apprehensious of our most cautious bankers, who feared Mr. Chase would recommend an unlimited issue of demand notes, the effect of which would be as seen in the history of French assignats, Continental money and irredeemable bank money the world over, to produce ultimately public distress. The report happily relieves all apprehensions on that score, as Mr. Chase evidently objects to these demand notes as much as the bankers themselves, though all the speculators in the country are iu favor of them, as the the obvious tendency would be to give us . glorious good times for six months or a year ending up with a terrible smash when the . day of settlementcame. The recommendation that he really makes, for the Government to furnish currency to the different banking associations, rather puzzles financiers here, and was, no doubt, not intended to be very definite, It is evident that so far as Mr. Chase is concerned, the measures of the various bills which he will urge for the adoption of Congress, in relation to this . matter, will be founded upon sound finan. cial principles, so that we shall leave as little as possible on the future. We shall doubtless have all the advantages of a great National Bank without many of its disadvantages. At least, the objection to the old United States Bank, that it was an engine of political influence, will not be ap. plicable to the new method of remodeling . the currency of the country. .

The pain with which we have watched . the attempt by radical partisans at the . North to make this great war for the Union . a fierce and revengeful war for emancipa. tion, and the earnestness with which we have endeavored to combat the scheme— are not inspired by any sentimental love for African slavery, nor by any sensitive regard for the rights of the South, but by a sincere love for the Union, and w desire to prevent the intrusion into the struggle of elements that will embarrass its friends and . jeopard its existence. We desire to let slavery take care of itself—to leave it to circumstances. If it is to perish in the course of this war, let it perish, and the conseqnences be upon the heads of those who imperiled it by the commencement of a wanton revolt, But we would not bave its overthrow made an object of the war, because . that would add to the difficulties and em. barrassments of the struggle, by uniting the South and dividing the North, and renderjing the unltimate issue uncertain; and in enemas NUMBER 563. The Union “Conspiracy” in Arkansas. The Little Rock State Journal of the 29th November, notices the arrival at that city of twenty-seven prisoners, members of a secret Lincola organization from Van Buren county. They were lodged in jail for safe keeping until tried by the civil author: ities. Forty others had been arrested, and the names of the most of the members learned. The Journal referring to the “‘conspiracy,’’ says : It appears that information of this organ * ization was given to Gen. Burgevin i. a citizen of Van Buren county, and a volunteer in the Confederate service. The names of the leaders are well known, and if those who are in bot persuit of them ever succeed in overtaking them, it wonld be well to acquaint them with some of the peculiar uses of hemp. We have been permitted to peruse the constitution of this organization. Itisca}led a ‘Peace and Constitutional Society.’ They have 700 members in Searcy, Van Buran, Newton and Isard counties, and 1,700 in the whole State. They have a regalar system of signs and passwords, and are furnished with supplies of money from the Northern camps. The constitution makes it vbligatory npon every member to hazard bis life in aid of another in distress, and the penalty of expressing any of the secrets of the organization is death. Gen. Burgevin, who was mustering in a regiment at Carrollia ton, as soon as he heard of the conspiracy, at once burried down to the counties above named, to take such steps as might be necessary. At Clinton he saw Col. J.B. Lews, who assured him of the correctness of the report. Col. Lewis had called out a guard of 100 men, and was at that time making arrests, and Gen. Burgevin, being satisfied, from his well known energy o! character and fearless nature, that the matter was in good hands,? feft the control of . the whole affair to that officer. . Col. Lewis reports that those alrsady ' taken were well supplied with arms and ; ammunition, and infers that those still at . large are equally well equipped. Gen. Bur. gevin reports further to the authorities in . reference to the disaffection of the people . in that section, and gives the names of eertain individuals engaged in fomenting dis. content among them. Those who have been taken acknowledg¢ their crime, plead nothing extenuating, but only beg for their lives. Our authorities, however, are fully informed upon the whole subject, and we hope, if necessary, the extremest measures will be resorted to in order to suppress all treason, and secure to the people immunity from civil war in their midst, Fortress Monrog.—Gov. lietcher, 1a, ments the inability of Virginia to get possession of Fortress Monroe, Io his late message he says: .

NAVIGATION OF THE AMERICAN, — The Steamer Defiance, Captain Gibson, left the levee on Saturday afternoon at two o’clock, . . for an excursion up the American river. . In consequence of the injuries received by her collision with the Sacramento and Yolo bridge she was not in good running order. She passed Lisle’s bridge—carried away by the recent flood—and reached a point be. low Norris’ bridge. While in sight of this . structure it yielded to the force of the . flood. and a portion of it was carried off. . The Defianee took from various houses on the river near Rabel’s tannery and Barnum’s slough some five women and fifteen . children and brought them to the city. The . ence in military matters enabled him to form an opinion as to the number of men . that would be required to capture it. He . represented it to be one of the strongest fortifications in the world, and expressed . hia doubts whether it could be taken unless . assailed by water as wellas by land, and . simultaneously. He etated emphatically and distinctly, that with the force then in . the fortress it would be useless to attempt . ite capture without a large force, thoroughly . equipped and well appointed. At no timc . previous to the secession of Virginia had we . a military organization sufficient to justify an attempt to take it, and events since that occurrence demonstrate very clearly that with our military organization since, and . now existing, it has not been deemed pru. dent to make the attempt. Defiance made another excursion up the . American yesterday. Itis presumed that . one object of these excursions is to look . . out an elligible epot for an embarcadero— . . @ second Hoboken—to which goods may be . taken by steamer from this city and forward. the docket the case of Charles vs. the United . ed by cars, teams, etc., to the mountaine. .
