Is THE Hovez— Mr. Stevens, from the Uommittee of Ways and Means, reported a bill that the act to pro- vide internal revenue for the support of the government, approved J une 30466), be amend- €d in the fitty-fifth section by striking out the word February wherever it occurs, and in- sertipg in lieu thereot the word January. The second section provides that in addition to the duty now imposed by Jaw, all spirits of do- mestic production held for sale on the firet of January, 1965, shallbe subject to a duty of Ay cents r galion, which passed with slight amendments. The House went into Committee of the Whole on the sjate of the Union. Mr. Spald:ng reviewed some of the promi- nent points in the President’s annual message, | which he regarded as of a dignified and patri- otic character. In relation to slavery, he said they should wipe ont the foul blot; and daring his speech remarked he had no dis provoke hostilities with Great Bri did not look on that Power as a friend to-the United States. She was greatly ambitious to be the leader of nations. by means of her eu- | premacy on the ccean, and was prominently | seltish in all the appurtenances to commerce and trade. This Government has no occasion to fear Great Britain, for, vith all our wealth, | the loyal people of the United States are at this Moment, with a great rebellion on hand. more than & match for her. Ouf policy should be con'inually to gird Om Oun@mrmor, and erect fortifications and depots on the shores of our inh ud seas. The committee rose and the House adjourned. FYNANCIAL.—The New York Post says : The good news from the army has to-day produced & more profound impression in Wall street thanon Saturday. Gold has fallea fif- | teen per cent ,and whiieé yen the soundest rail- Toad stocks are much depressed, all kinase of Government securities are in active demand, at advancing rates Gold opened at ~21, and after falling to211, Tose to 216. The loan market 1s dull, as is usual at this seacon. The abundance of capital in quest of investment on call is still accumulating. At7 per cent. there is no difficulty in obtaining loans on miecelianeous securides. Commercial paper is quiet at 709. The New York Commercial Advertiser says: The trade in dry-goods was quiet during last ‘week, as usual at the middle of December. Tne Attention of the domestic trade is occupied in preparations for the spring trade, and sales are confined almost entirely to light transactions Fs staple goods. The domestic market is very rm. Woolen fabrics are decidedly stronger, and the prerect is that spring goods will open much higher than a yearago. Manufacturers contend that the price of woolens has not yet equalled the rize in gold, and that they have a Tight to demand a higher figure for their goode. Be thie as it may, the demand appears to he so fuily op to the supply as to enable the pro- ducere to realize full prices. The indications are that the importations of woolen goods will be much below those of last year, leaving so much more of the consumption to be supplied by our own mills. Brown sheetings are dull but very firm at 0c. forstandards. Medium grades are scarce and much wanted. Bleached goods are also firmer, and in more demand. Some holders ask higher per yard, but without sales. New York Mills are quo- ted 65c.; Ballou’s well kuown make is selling at 36c. for Y, and 46c. for 4-4. Drilie are quiet at 30c. for standards. Pepi jeans arehigher. Naumkeagare quo- 42 gc. Uotien fiannels are more wanted. Hamilton F. are quoted 67¥c., and Naumkeag 57 ¥c. There are very few stripes and ticks en hand, &xnd prices are in some cases Sc. higher. There is a light steady demand for prints, but ebiefly for dark goods. The prices for Spring styles have not been generally fixed. AUCTION SALES. s*= OF CONDEMNED MULES, Cicer QuARTRAMASTER’S OFricg. Depot er Wassin r Waeursctoy, D © , Dec. 13, i851.

They will be credited to the quota of the district in which they or their families may be Gorniciled and will, therefore, be entitled to local bounties. 5_Free transportation will be furnished them to Washington by any Provost Marshal. Itis only necessary that the applicant should satis- fy ihe Provost Marshal that he comes under the provision of paragraph 2. and that the ap- plication is made in good faith. 6. On arriving in Washington and reporting at the Soldiers’ Rest, Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Depot, Veterans will be cared for and enlisted and paid prcmptly.
