NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1861. THE NATIONAL CRISIS. ARKANSAS. ‘9GE SURRENDER OF THE UNITED STATES ARSENAL AT LITTLE ROCK. ‘The Arkansas State Gazelle of the 16th inst. publishes ‘w full the correspondence that passed between Governor Rector, of that State, and Captain Totten, of the United Btates ‘army , prior to the surrender by the ntter of the ‘Little Rock Arsenal. ‘The correspondence for the surren- der of the arsenal was opened by Governor Rector, who informed Captain Totten that he had received retiable §mformation that a large force of citizens were then on the march to Little Rock, with the avowed purpose of taking possession of the United States Arsenal there. The Governor declares it to be his duty, under the cir- ‘cumstances, although the movement was not authorized by him, to prevent a collision between the people of the State and the federal troops, and therefore demanded the delivery of the arsenal in the name of the State of Ar kangas, to be held subject to the action of the Conven- tion, to.be held on the 4th day of March next. This is only way which can possibly prevent the effusion of pokey ne the destruction of property of the citizens and ernment. be ‘Totten, in reply to this demand, confesees that he ferig himself in trying circumstandes, but before agroving to the surrender of the arsenal at Little Rock be requests to kuow from the Governor:— ‘Wil the Governor of the State of Arkansas officially tate charge of said arsenal and munitions of war ia the name of the United States government, and bold them in ‘that Light until Sulure clrenmetaneay shall legally absolve ‘rom the responsibility es © ‘the Governor of the State of Arkansas offici tee to eaid force an unmolested passage thro: Siete in'any direction the olllcer commanding may select, and guarantee, moreover, Se the right of carrying with them all the public and solvate pogo they brought with them to said arsenal, all which has been for them, and all which has been sent to them since stationed at said arsenal, consisting of ordnance and ordnance stores, clothing, camp and garrison equipage and barrack and mess furni- wore, as ajs0 provisions and all their individual and pri- vate property? 8. Will the Governor of Arkansas, in his official capa- sity, guarantee to the United States’ forces now in charge thereof the right of marching away from said place, with ‘all the honor due them as federal and soldiers, who do not surrender their trust, but simply evacuate ‘a post for want of instructions: from their superiors in ettice, and in doubt as to the propriety of bringing on civil War among their fellow countrymen? To these interrogatories Governor Rector answered as follows —After mature reflection, 1 propose to accept your firet, eecond and third Propositions, with the fol- jowing understanding:—That, being informed your com- man’ brought no cannon, 80 Done are t> be taken away. ‘You shall havea safe passage out of the State in md direction you may please, with your command, provid however, you do not station yourself within the limits of the State Of Arkansas or on the borders thereof. ‘A memorandum was subsequently drawn up in which ‘the Captain agreed to surrender the arsenal, a part of which reads thus:—And the said Captain Totten protests that he has thus acted becauee in the presence of a tly superior armed force, and which be became satis- Sea would soon become overwhelming by reinforcements in case of resistance, involving the sacrifice of bis com- mand without regard to the probabie loss of life on thc of the assailants; because any defence of the arsenal in ‘the city of Little Rock , whether successful or unsuccessful, ‘id necessarily involve to a greater or less extent the jestruction of property in the city, and the loss of lives of the peaceful citizens and families dwelling therein; because 1 without instructions from his government, he took ‘the responsibility of doing what he thought proper and beet under-ail the circumstances, desiring to avoid cause of civil war in this government, by the first instance of a bostiie and bloody collision, yet proteeting for himself and 7 the name of his government inst events be- yond his control, which have actuated him to this course. ‘The ladies of Little le Rock, as an expression of their feel- ‘mgs of Kindness and consideration for Captain Totten, ted that gallant and meritorious officer with a Boddsome and costly sword.

Sowpay, Feb. 24, 1861. The trade of the port for the week which ended yesterday exhibited the same features as previous weeks. The imports were less than those of the corresponding week last year, the exports much heavier. For the first time since the beginning of the year there was a fair export of specie, over half @ million in doubloons having been shipped to Havana. Jobbers say that the week was, for the season, more active and more cheerful than | had been expected by many. Some country buy- ers are in town, and many leading houses are doing moderate business. It need hardly be added that the buyers are chiefly from the North and West. The following are the comparative Custom House tables of the trade of the-port for the week and since January 1:— Invorrs, For the week, 1859, 7. 1861.

Each steamer from Europe brings more or less, though the letters from here to which we are now receiv- ing replies reported exchange firm at 106 a %. Exchange on New York has risen at New Orleans and Mobile to about par; go that the flow of specie in that direction has ceased for the present. Last Monday the banks showed an average of $37,119,- 000—an increase of $2,463,555 over the previous statement. They will for the present go on in- creasing, and we shall doubtless see considerably Simul- Last It is probable that the award of the new loan may enable the banks to increase their dis- count line, by advances on the government stock. Without this resource, their discounts would ne- cessarily decline from week to week, in propor- tion to the curtailment in business. The reduc- tion since November last is twelve millions of dol- lars; the increase of specie about sixteen mil- lions. Money is as easy and no easier than it was a week ago. Some very choice names, such as are rarely met with, go at six per cent per annum. But the general rate for the best paper is about seven per cent. Names not generally known, and paper representing claims in the Southern States, are passed with great diffi- culty and at very high rates. On call, the brokers are supplied at 5 a6 per cent. It is evident that the money market is going to be easy throughout the season, and that money will be ofmore value in London than here. Foreign exchange improved about one per cent last week. At the close, the leading bankers sold at 10534, and no good mercantile bills could be bought below 104% 0105. Francs advanced to 5.35. The market is not very active, however; importations continue light, and the indebtedness of New York to Europe is much less than usual at this season, The following table shows the course of the stock market during sat) *paet week and month:— South guarant’d 8 Central, 30 2 Bly a 112012 us” 13 Hovson River. 42% 43 440 43 Pacitic Mail..., 85 Slig S2hg 4% = «83 The week has been dull in the stock market. Operators are all waiting for something to turn up at Washington. A strong bear party has put out a long line of stocks; but stocks of all kinds are so scarce, and prices so stubborn, that they do not seem to be increasing their short interest at present. On the other hand, the bulls are satis- fied that some adjustment will be made which will satisfy the border States, and that in this event stocks will rise; but they, too, are waiting the pro- gress of events, The bears on our Stock Exchange have been somewhat disappointed by the non-arrival from England of American securities. It was confi- dently expected that the news of the secession of the Gulf States, with the prospect of civil war, would lead to copious consignments of American securities to New York for sale on foreign ac- count. It was believed that large amounts of State stocks, and shares of the Hlinois Central and Erie Railroads would come here to be slaughtered. The event has not verified these anticipations. Very few State stocks have come over, and hardly any Illinois Central and Erie. Itseems that foreign holders of our securities exercise a cooler judg- ment than the bears anticipated. Letters from London say that if the border States—whose stocks are the principal State securities dealt in abroad— should secede from the Union, they will require to preserve their credit in order to borrow anew; if they stay in the Union, the stocks will remain as good as they ever were. As to railway stocks, these letters state that, in the opinion of English holders, political disturbances at the South cannot affect the busi- ness of such roads as the Illinois Central and the Erie. So long asthe West continues to produce a surplus of food, and to require a large quantity of goods, these roads must do an average business; and instead of selling their stocks, foreigners are prepared to increase their interest it a panic here enables them to do so at a cheap rate. We are led to believe that these views are those of fo- reigners generally. Our English friends may have nade some mistakes in selecting investments here. But itis due to truth to say that they have never jacked courage im holding them. They have never sold under the pressure of panic. On the contrary, when we have lost faith and made haste to sacri- foe our property, foreiguers have embraced the opportanity to take it offour hands. They are cooley and perhaps wiser than we are in this res- peet We published in yesterday's Heravp the list of the bids for the $8,000,000 government loan which was awarded on Saturday at Washington. The aggregate amount bid for was aL 5,000; the rates ranged from 75 to 96, most of the bids being between 90 and 91. It ie stated by our Washing- ton correspondent that no bid under 90 15-100 will be accepted. According to the list of bids pob lished yesterday, the bide at and above 90 15-100 only amount to $7,902,000, leaving $95,000 to be avarded to bidders below that figure. Jt is quite likely, however, thet the telegraph may have made some errore in the amounts. Assuming that no bid below 90 15-100 gets anything, the following are the successful bidders for the loan: — Amount Yt for.

Very fair authority predicted that it would not be taken above 85, and early last week the prospect did not look very promising. It will be noticed that most of the loan was taken in New York. The bids from New England were, however, more numer- ous than usual; a large proportion of the oom- bination bid sent in by Messrs, Ketchum, Son & Co. was from New England. It will also be re- marked that the highest bid was from the Bank of the Republic in this city, the financial agent of the leading capitalists of the cotton States, Se- veral bids from the Bank of the Republic were considerably above the average at which the loan wessold. As the whole amount bid for will be paid.in before the Ist of March, it may be expected that the creditors of the government, who have been so long kept waiting, will at length get the amounts due to them. The banks, whose com- bination bid at 90 gete none of the ipan, will be ready to lon on certificates on very favorable wrme. The progzess af revolution at the South is grad- ually developing te commercial difficaltiesarhioh olumn. On Friday ow York, and loaling Georgia, were seized by order of the Covermor of that State, in retaliation for certain seizurea of arms by the Metropolitan police of New York, An examination of the legal questions involved in the seicure of arma by @ State authority does not fall within the provision of this article; on the face of it, it # ould seem our Metropolitan police bad no authority to arms dest'ned for the seceding States; it fa not clear, however, that the illegal measures adopted by the Governor of Georgia ore justified by the previous have been faretoli in thi last three vesasis owned in in the port of Sewannak, commission of illegal acts by the police of New York. The practical effects of the seizure will be to check the trade of the port of Savannah. Ship- owners cannot be expected to send their vessels to a port where they may be seized and detained; und thus the advantage gained by Savannah over Charleston in the early period of the secession vement will probably be lost. The owners of '| the vessels seized and of the cargoes contained in them have laid their case before the government at Washington, This, however, is @ small matter in comparison with the difficulties aris- ing on the Mississippi. To understand these it must be borne in mind that there are on the Mis- sissippi no less than twenty ports of entry above New Orleans. At all these ports there fre importers who import foreign goods regularly, via New Orleans, Up to this time, these importers, on giving to the United States Collector at New Orleans transportation bonds, have been allpwed to transport their goods to their destination, to bond them there, and only to pay duties on them as they were required for sale. On 31st January, the United States Col- lector at New Orleans, Mr. Hatch, resigned his office, and entered the service of the Siate of Louisiana as Collector,of Customs. n the fol- lowing day, and on subsequent days, goods arrived at New Orleans for Louisville, Ky., and Cincin- nati, Ohio. Mr. Hatch bade the agents of the im- porters choose between paying the duties or giving transportation bonds to the State of Lonui- siana, This was practically closing the mouth of the Mississippi to all the ports of the interior. Transportation bonds given to the State of Loui- siana could not, of course, be recognized by the officials of the United States government at the upper ports. Nor could a receipt from Mr. Hatch for duties protect goods from a second claim by the United States revenue officers in Kentucky, Missouri and Ohio. Ifthe importers paid the duty to Mr. Hatch, they would have to pay it over again when the goods reached their destination: if they gave transportation bonds, there was no means of cancelling them. Thus the matter rests. The Louisville and Cincinnati importers have laid their case before the government; but, like the owners of the ships seized at Savannah, they have but little hope of speedy satisfaction. The Lonisi- ana Convention and the Montgomery Congress have decreed that the navigation of the Mississippi shall be free to all nations, But this is a matter which paper decrees cannot settle. There can be no freedom of the Mississippi for the Western States so long asa foreign Power holds both banks of the river at its mouth: the embarrassments created by the acts of Collector Hatch prove that the so-called freedom of navigation will prove illusory in practice. We have received the following communication respecting Omo State Frvaxcierinc. TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD. Lece its in one of the morning papers that the Legislature of Ohio is discussing a proposition for the sale of their public works, the writer adding that “their value (about two and a half millions) greatly aid the Si in the liquidation of the six millions of our debt Governor now due,” This debt is mentioned by Denni- gon, in his mesengo to the Legislature, a8 amounting to 113,326, due 1860. And issioners of the $6,- Sinkipg Fund, who were authorized by the General As- sembly to negotiate a loan for the redemption of said debt, after stating (io their circular of ng 26, invit- ing proposals) that ‘‘the State has signi her inten- tion to pay the same at the expiration of the time named,” i. ¢., after the 31st day of December, 1860, re- mark ‘that certificates of the funded debt of the State of Obio, redeemable on the 1st day of January, 1861, will be received in payment of any part of the loan hereby contemplated.’’ The debt of more than six millions, thus admitted to be due, has not been paid, aud the question arises, has the ‘State of Onio acted fairly toward fits creditors who hold the certiticates thereo'? We think not. The act of the 26th of March laet, providing for the redemption of these certifi- cates, authorized the Commissioners to negotiate a new loan for the purpose, only on condition of their ability to raise the necessary funds at a rate of interest not exceed- ing six per cent per annum, it being supposed by the Atvembly—as will appear from the provisions of the 4th section of the act—that the money could be bor- rowed by the State at or under the rate of five per cent Whether any proposals were actually mate within this limit of six per cont, or whether, if so, they were re- jected by the Commissioners under their reserved right to do so “if they deemed it neve enaty to promote the interest of the State,’ Iam not fully Informed. If the latter, the Jommissioners excecded their instructions, and inhoeent creditors should not be allowed to sutter for their misconduct; if the former. the question recurs, right and proper for the Legislature to restrict y such instructions’ It may be urged on behalf of the State that the certifeates were redeemable, on their face, not on, but after the dist of December, at the pleasure of the state, and that “the pleasure’ of the Bate,” as aiguitied by the General As-embly, was not to redeem them on tbe Ist of January, unless money cout be obtained for the parpose at a less rate than six per cent per annum; and that those, therefore, who purchased these certificates with the ‘expectation that they would be redeemed on the Ist of Jasuary, did go at their own peril: so that 1, owing to the altered con dition of the money market, from whatever cause aris. ing, a new loan could not be effected at the rate specified, they must fad feult with their own wantof jadgment, instead of condemuing the authorities of the State that their expectations were not fulfilled. But, on the other band, '¢ may be asked, bad not the public’ @ right to ex- pect from @ State which boasts (as in the circular of the sommissicners above referred to) of her “high credit, based upon unquestionable ablity to meet ber engage ments, and the care, promptness and ddelity with which she nas, vader al} circum+tances, uniformly met them,” tbat she wool male provision for the redemp- tion of this debt “‘promptiy,” and without rogard to the “eircumstances’’ oY the money market, whose derange ment Was produced, as many believe, altogether by the election of Mr ">, to which that very State so largely contrisuteo? 1 the “pleastire'” of the stato t> meet her Niabilities depends uvon her ability to make money by so doing, what certsinty is there that these or any of her obligations wil! over be reteemed? Even if mopey could now be procure’ at the rate she has apeciiied 'o the act before mentioned, still, as sixty days must elapse (the jod required by said act for advertising for proposals) fore anew len could be negotiated, it might then be impossible to obtain it at that rate, and the cred! tors, be thus again disappointed. The “ piea- sure” of tho State, thus detined, is certamly very indefinite, an¢ tho “ securities’’ bated upon it very imperfectly recnred. If Obio really wiehes to retain her credit unimpaired, jet her, instead of waiting to dispose of her public woraa, fullow at once the example of oar own State, ‘h bas lately effected two loans at the rates of about six and seven per cent respectively If unwilling to borrow money for a ‘omg period at such high rates of interest, let her borrow tt [oT na if ane iliing to do this, let her sige iy ee readiness to extend the cer- tifleates now due for « definite term of years at the rate of interest expressed upoa the face thereof, or elre let her acknowledge herseif bound, at least in equity /f not in law, to pay seven per cent—the legal rate in this State, which was the place of contract—upon them unt.! they shall be redeemed. Either of these arrangemen would doubtiess prove satisfactory to the creditors, as Well a8 iz the end advantageous to the State. The mean- ness which nduces her to keep her creditors in suspense looking only to her own immediate ‘nterest, without ang regard to theirs, is inconsistent with that ‘honor few 3 should be a Commonwealth's proudest boast, and | sistent even with a true regard for that very interest she is #ecking to promote. .
