interesting portions of which I embody in this letter, The vigorous exhortation following immodiately after ‘this will attract special attention. It confirms what I said in my last of the ‘‘growing mettle’ in Prosidential circles:— ‘STAND FIRM—BE TRUE. We feel indignant sometimes when we hear timid blicans COMDselling an abandonment, in part, of re- grouud. Weare asking for nothing that is not Tiearly nih ‘We have done nothing wrong. We have nothing to sealogine for for, nothing to take back, as @ party. We have fought a hard’ battle; we have come out of ‘it ‘Fietorious; and shall we now call back the routed, flyin enemy, and basely surrender all that we have gained! Never. Let us stand firm as the: ete hits upon the republican platform, and “turn this government back into the chanuel in which the framers of the eatiintion originally placed it.” Some there ars who counsel Mr. Lincoln to take into his cabinet two or three euttomen who do not agree with him politically. They know the man. On the 17th of June, 1858, in @ Speech delivered in this city, Mr. Lineoln said:— “Our cause, then, must be entrusted to, and conducted by, its own undoubted friends—those whose hands are free, ‘whose hearts are in the work—who do care for the result. licans of the nation mustered over thirteen hundred d strong.

Did we brave all then to falter now?—now, when that enemy is wayering, dissev- ‘ered and belligerent? The result is pot doubtful. We shall not faik—if we stand firm, we shall not fail. Wise counsels may accelerate, or mistakes: delay it, but, sooner or later, the's vietory is sure to come.” ‘The victory has ‘come—brilliant, glorious, overwhelm- ing. Mr. Lincoln himself led the triumphant host. The eople have entrusted their cause to him, knowing ‘bis Bands to be free,” his “heart in the work,” and that ho does care for the result.” Will he entrust now, think yon, to those who are not its own undoubted fricads will he call around bim a hostile Cabinet, and reward With offices aud honor the very mien whom the poople have repudiated? * *— lat ‘there be no wavering, no faltering eles treacheroas counsel, no base surrender of principles. Let there be justice, ’eaoderation, prudence, bat wafinching firmness. Mr. Botts’ Union letter was read with a good deal of Satisfaction by the President elect. Botts stock has ‘since considerably risen among his friends, and the ever talking and ever writing Virginian’s name is again pro- tuinently connected with a seat in the Cabinet. I doubt, however, that such a consideration will be made to an- swer this bid. The Journal prints the letter in full, with a strong complimentary notice. The organ this morning also had the folowing plain hint at the time when Mr. Lincoln will publidy define his views:— MR, LINCOLN WILL SPEAK. we are often asked by strangers, “Why does not Mr. ee Will he say anything to allay the storm?”’ ‘Yes, gen’ he will speak. He will define his posi- tion, ‘and all the ‘world will know ‘his policy. He will in the city of Washington, on the 4th day of Mareb, 1361, if he lives and should to feel like it, The leading subject of conversation in hotel parlors yesterday continued to be the visit of Mr. Bates. There appeared to be a unanimity of approbation among repub- licans of the bold view he expressed in reference to the secession issue during his stay, and much gratification at the prospect of seeing him among the constitutional ad- visers of the President elect. That the Secretaryship of the Interior was formally tendbred to the distinguished ‘Missourian is disputed by noone. Mr. Lincoln is known to have been a strong admirer and personal ac- quaintance of Mr. Bates for many years, s0 that his selection was not a cause of surprise. It is ‘said that he was first decidedly disinclined to accept any ‘appointment on account of the dependence of his large fa- amily on his professional labors, and that it was only upon the urgent entreaties of Frank P. Blair, Jr., that he con- ented to come up here and receive the offer at the hands of the President elect.

Bare ov mm Cory Wing Awaxk Oxon at Irving Hact.— The ball of the New York City Wide Awake Club took Place at Irving Hall, opposite the Academy of Music, last night. The hall is very finely fitted up, but was only in- augurated on Wednesday evening, and the walls were £0 damp last night that the moisture could be plainly perceived. The chilly effect of this dampness was any. thing but pleasant, and was much more productive of colds, diptheria, quincy and consumption, than of enjoy- ment. Among the distinguished guests present were the Hon, Mr. Conkling, Congressman elect; Simeon Draper, L, A. Bri ., of Ohio; Hon. Mr, Shaw, mem- ae of Assembly, 7“ ‘the officers of most of tho Wide Awake clubs in ‘the city, A letter, in response to an invitation to be present, was received from Senator Seward, stating that ho was detained at home by his son’s illness, returning his thanks for the ‘conipument and for their parade during his visit here, regretting his inability to be present. ‘The at fies eo was not 0 large as waa expocted—ouly about three hundred persons being upon the floor. Evi dently, this Wide Awake is not a ball club, The smoking room and the two bars in the basement, and the commit tee room, were well patronized. The music, by Grafula, was excellent. The dancing, by the company, rather otherwise. There was no restriction in regard fo dress, except that “hats, canes and umbrellas were not allowed upon the floor,” so that figured waistcoats chasseed to plain in the stately quadrille, swallow-tails floated with frock-tails in the mazy waltz, and bare hands clasped white kids in the festive cheat and jig. The ladies wore all the colors, and had more than the beauties, of the rainbow. Altogether, the affair, although very pleasant ae concerned, was of no very special interest to the public.

The steamship Persia, which arrived this after- noon from Liverpool, brought over three millions of dolars in specie—£632,000 sterling. This re- mittance was evidently much larger than was ex- pected; the London and Liverpool circulars and the newspapers predicted a shipment of about £200,000. Besides this, the Borussia brought $17,500, and the Quaker City, from Havana, $107,718. Judging from the general tone of the public and private advices, it seems that, at the time the Persia sailed, it was generally believed in England that “the American mf$netary crisis” was about over, and that no more exports of gold would be made from England to this country. Within a day or two after the sailing of Ue Persia the fallacy of this theory will have come to light, more gold withdrawals from the Bank will have taken place, and, as a necessary consequence, the rate of interest will have gone up, and the price of merchandise and produce gone down. The Persia reports a firm market for breadstuffs, provisions inactive, and American cotton 44d. lower. Money was freely supplied at the Bank rate, and business generally looked healthy enough. When the English receive thg news by the Canada, and the steamers which suc cceded her, they will probably begin to regard the monetary crisis ina more serious light, and will adopt prompt measures to protect them- selves. In asound mercantile view it is we, and not the English, who are the losers by shipments of bullion from England to this country, as such shipments are sure to cause a decline in the price of our staples—cotton, breadstuffs and provisions. But itis very questionable whether the English will at first take this practical view of the subject. Aseach steamer from New York arrives with tidings of the continued depression here, and of the spread of the revolution at the South, it is quite likely that London and Liverpool may have their panic before they settle down to a common sense appreciation of the emergency. Inthe meantime these receipts 6f foreign bul- lion are producing an excellent effect here in re- storing confidence and strengthening the banks. Nearly five millions have now come from England, and $1,200,000 will arrive to-morrow or next day from California; so that our banks are now ina position of undoubted security and strength. We are able to send—as we are doing—half a million or more each week to the South, for the purchase of cotton bills, and are thus helping New Orleans and Mobile out of their troubles. Sterling ex- change at New Olreans has been raised by these remittances from 95 to 101% a 102, and the New Orleans banks now hold nearly twelve millions in coin, The telegraph informs us that the banks of Alabama have been authorized to suspend specie payments; the Bank of Mobile and thg Northern and the Southern bank have not to the taste and Imen of New York. N. EsrENccuets, } | yet suspended, but will doubtless do so ere long. All these institutions have had to struggle—tirst against short crops, next the political revolution, and finally the holding back of cotton. Our money market is decidedly ler to-day. There is an active demand for first class paper, which is not so abundant as was supposed. On call money is a drug at6a 7 per cent. Liquida- tion has been proceeding so vigorously, and trade is generally so sound, that money can hardly fail to be very easy in the course of a few weeks. The change will be of importance to the United States government, which awards $5,000,000 of Treasury notes on the 28th inst. Yesterday and the day before it was generally said that the government would have to pay ten per cent for its money; to-day seven per cent seems to be nearer the mark, and if the present feeling lasts till the 28th, and no political crisia oc- curs, the notes may find buyers at six per cent. We have to report another exciting day in the stock market anda general advance all round. State stocks, railway bonds and railway stocks were all wanted by purchasers for cash, and ad- vanced in a marked manner. Illinois Central w one of the most active stocks. It opened at 6: sold up to 68% between the boards, and closed 68 bid, against 04% yesterday evening. New York Central, which is greatly over sold, advanced two per cent in the morning, and closed 76% bid, against 7434 yesterday evening.
