It had been well if a company of this cavalry had remained at the residenc ot Governor Brad ford, three and a half miles north of the city , during the whole of last night But, unhappily, it was all sent toother points.

Und that h: presence m the Uat. met would no longer be toierated Mr Chae to k the hint ! and resigned. The direction which Mr. Lincoln'- mind takes ou the subject may be easily seen by his choice f Mr. Tod, of Ohio; to succeed Mr Chase. Mr Tod ia as ignorant iW tbe science of finance as a couutry boy is of the science of navigation. But be is intensely "loyal, and he would have been an humble and a useful tool in Mr. Lincoln's Inr.ds. The nomination of Mr Fesseuden was forced ujn tbe Pre-ideut Mr. Feasendan has not yet accepted. If he does accept the Treasu 7 department will be ably managed; but Mr Lincoln s electioneering views will not be any more advanced than they would have been by Mr. Chase. Besides. Mr. Kessendeu has astonished the Pre-ident by demanding conditions, without the acceptance of hich he has declared that he will earl accept office under the President. He demands that Stanton and Welles hall both be dismissed; that regular Cabinet meetings shall hereafter be held, and tint the President shall determine upon no important eaecutire act without full consultation at a Cabinet meeting. It is hardly likely that Mr. Lincoln will consent to these terms.

By the term-of thi i treaty, iu consideration of certain commercial ! advantages, the Fmperor Napoleon will not only recognize the independence of the South, but I will also agree to furnish to the South such raili j ' tary aud naval aid as will compel the North to abstain from any future attempts to conquer or I subjugate the Southern States. Before this is ! done.however.it Is said that England and France ! will unite in representing to the United States that the Southern State have sufficiently demon- : strated to the world their ability lo maintain j their independence, and that the manufacturing ; und commercial iuierests of the two countries, Eg well as the general interests of humanity, require that the war shall cease. If t hist appeal is disregarded by the United State- I i ivernmen'. then, it is -aid. ihe Kmperor Napoleon wili lend a powerful naval force to raise the blockade ofl' Wilmington, Mobile aud Charleston, and will send a force of 300,000 French troops to co-operate with those of the rebels. Nothing is said it. these letter.-aboutany material aid of Ibis kind being expected from Fngland. But it is evident that there will be aid of some kind furnished from England, and powerful aid too; nor is it understood thst England expects as her reward certain commercial advantages in regard to the cotton of the South, which will pract:callv amount to almost monopoly of j that -tuple Such is the substance of these let j ters. Such is the humiliating position then to which the nation has been brought, by the j hatred and intolerance cd" Abraham Lincoln j toward the South. It was in his power to have averted the war at the beginning. It was ! iu bis power to htve stopped the war, and i restored the Union two years ago. His! measure.-, however, have only served to pro- j long the war and In develop the power of the South, and now he will have the humiliatian of ' seeing foreign tuitions aiding the Southern State- in finally and forever breaking up the Union Dion.

Fesaenden, Trumbull and others. The Senate was considering oue i the many important bili- which have been reported during the present Congress, which nive large sums of money to pnvate interest and individuals, und Mr. Ke-senden stated that it was ured hrough Congress by a strong lobby influence. I know nothing respecting the facta in this particular case, hut Mr. Fessenden charge reminded me of the remark ol a Republican member of the Hotse, a few davs since. He .-aid: "I am aa- j tounded at the conduct of ome of our friends here They are tliiiin- hard word at the Copj perheada and talking about patriotism, yet they are themselves bringing ruin on the country by tbetl votes. I hev throw away the money in tnt i reasury as it tnere whs no limit to our ability to borrow or manufacture. Kverv job which can be thought of finds a plenty of sup -.i;e:-, nd even old jobs, which have been rejected for a dozen ear-, come up again now with prospects of success!" There btOOgawch truth in thb statement. 1 am well aw.ne that, to be popular, it is neces- tryto withhold all ciiticism upon this subject; but no .nwhile the nation floats down to the sea of bankruptcy. It is impossible for me to write as -trongly as Mi Chase speak- upon this subject. DoeWM understand the financial condition of the OOHMtt '.' or do the men who are voting the pub lie money by millions upon unnecessary project? : understand it better; Many ol the pi i vale projects beloie Congres I are well enough in themselves, but this is not the j time to agree upon them. For a dozen years and more Congress lias refused lo appropriate money to Dr Morton of Boston, as the discoverer of etber, vet thu winter the Committee of Wav and Means recommend that $2U0,0lH) be given to him! It is proposed to give half a million dollars to cert ii , iriie- to construct a telegraph to the A moor river. Immense sums are spent illoveiland mail contracts.

It must be acknowledged that both parties in tiii- tremendous and doubtful struggle displayvery high military jualit:es Whichever of the conti-: ilntr generals i- successful, they have both h n the ijualities w h eh deserve success. The N ortbera army must contain splendid materials to le capable ot being handled with such abso lute indifteience to loss, an-i such bard unbending purposes as General Craut diplay? It is sutlicientlv astonishing that the tremendous losses to die army do not jß'ccl the inhabitants of New York and Washington with more grief, or at least, hesitation; but it is equally remark -tble that they do not seem to affect the -pirits of the army. That capacity for mit knowing when they are beateu, a Inch has its burlesque aspect iu the reckless misrepresentations whL'h dishonor the New York papers, is yet a real and deep rooted quality in the people. We think it a miserable delusion , w hu h ie . i.-ihe N -riii io sacrifice tenof thousands of lives and hundreds of millions of dollar for an imaginary Union, but yet it ie imoo-sible not to feel that it is a great display ot fortitude which carries them through it. The sufferings, it is true, are iu a great measure ricari- -. but they must come Lome to the people sooner or late. , and there are admirable qualities at the bottom ol a reeolution capable of adhering Ith such tenacity to principles which have hitherto exhibited su-.-h lis u- result?. The confidence which tbe North continues to repose iu Mr Lincoln, after ail his extraordinary mismanagement, it equally creditable, and it de aast eg M least a belter leader The South is displaying the same qualities, heightened by the euuohUng I otee ot rotier ing and by tbe sobering consciou-ne-- f con-tint rerl The army of General Lee appears, iu tbe resolution of iL soldier ai d the character of its leaders, to be a still more admirable instrument than Gen Graar's, and ae cannot witness the :rtii?c!e of two curb enemies without reapect

He is familiarly known to many of your readers as Dick Ryan.

Ac , so flippantly thrown upon them by "soldiers" aud three years' newspaper correspondents. He said three fifths of the 100 day men from Indiana are veterans of two years service. Dick is one of nature's orators, drawing his inspirations from the occasion, and from ihe attendant circumstances He has a decidedly boyish aspect, but his chief and all absorbing feature is his mouth, which, wlien in repose, might be mUtakcn by one who did net know him, as a very dangerous sabre cut which he had at some time received while Lieutenant Colonel of the 35th Indiana, but when brought to an "open order," it resembled more the crater of a volcano, and the denunciations which How out upon the enemie of our coontrv are as caustic and pitiless as the rolling, burning lava. o ttiwlit to Think The Philndelphia Pre-s, edited by one of Mr. Lincoln's privy counsellors, has the following: It is not the business of a citizen to speculate upon the probabilities of the iuvasiou; whether it is aimed at Baltimote or Pennsylvania; if the rebels are twenty or forty thousand strong It is the duty to oppose it. According to this uew Republican creed, the s people have no right to ask questions even I thought Mr. Lincoln has denounced Eg a crime , their oolj duty i- to Sgbt, furnishing food for 1 powder, while the Administration will do all the , thinking necessary If the people will only fur j nish men to be shot, and money to buy the dow I der, that is ail the Abolitionists asks.
