By armed fore? and actual bloodshed, he has even attempted people of their right to keep and bear arms in conformity to the State laws, and to form a well regu- Jated mili . to deprive the Lia necessary to nocnrity of @ free State. With his sanction his solders houses without the consent of ti houses, papers and effects, ‘sear seizures, has been ha: rossly violated by his officers acting under tual _— ord ‘our constitutional State laws, and carried his insolence to such an extent as to introduce, from other States, free negroes into our midst and place authority over our white citizens, ‘Ho has encouraged the stealing of our slave property, Tn these and other | omg the government and of the Northern States have unmistakably shown their tention to overturn the sooial institutions of Missouri, and reduce her white citizens to an equality with the blacks. In the execution of his despotic wishes his agents, Without oven rebuke from him, have exhibited a bru- tality eearcely credible of a nation pretending to civiliza- tion. m1 women and children of tender age have fallen Vietims to the unbridled license of his unfeeling soldiery. ‘Ho has avowedly undertaken to make the civil power subordinate to the military; and with the despicable and cowardly design of thus protecting himself and his ac- complices, by binding the consciences of the unhappy Vietins of his tyranny, he has exacted from peaceful Citizens, guilty of no crime, an oath to support his detes- table government. To crush out even peaceful and law- ful opposition to it, he has forcibly and unconstitutionally the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus, and the freedom of speech and of the press by sub- ionocent citizens to punishment for more opinion’s ‘wake, and by preventing the publication of newspapers fud»pendent enough to expose his treason to liberty. ‘These manifold and inhuman wrongs were long submit- ‘ted to in patience, and almost in humility, by the people of Missouri and their‘authorities. Even when the con- duct of the. Lincoln government had culminated in an Open war upon us, those authorities offered to its military commander in Missouri to refer to the people of the State for decision of the question of our separation from a go- ‘Vernment and nation thus openly hostile to us. ‘Those authorities relied on the principles consecrated in the Declaration of Independence of tho United States, that, to secure the rights of citizens, “governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that, whenever any form of government ‘Decomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to institute a new govern- neut, laying its foundation on such principles und organ, He. its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most Jikely to effect thoir safety and happiness.” Missouri having an admitted equahty with the original States which had made this declaration, it was hoped that the rights therein asserted would not be denied to her people. ‘Her authorities also relied on the elauge in the very con- Btitution with which she was admitted into the Union, as- Sorting as one of the general, great and essential princi- ciples of liberty and free government, ‘that the people of ‘this State have the inherent, sole abd exclusive right of Fegulating the internal government and police thereof, ‘and of altering and abolishing their constitution aud form Of government whenever it may be necessary to their safety and happiness.” But this military commander Baughtily Tefused the consent of his government to the exeTcise by us of these rights, which our ancesters in the Jast century endured an ight years’ war to vindicate, ‘He but expressed, however, the deliberate purpose of bis masters at Washington and the poople over which they Tule; for his predecessor at St. Louis had, a few weeks before, formally proclaimed to out people that our cquality with the other States would be Sgnored; that wo ‘should bo held in subjection to the North, even though the independence of our Southera sis: might be acknowledged; that to use his own words, “whatever may be the termination of the unfor- tunato condition of things in respect to the so-called cot- ton States, Missouri must share the destiny of the Unien;”” ‘hat the freo will of her people shall net decide her future, Dut that “the whole power of the goverument of the United States, ifnecessary, will be exerted to maintain ur} in the Wnjon,”” in subjection to the tyranny of forth, ‘The acts of Presidont Lineoin have been indorsed by the Congress and le of the Northern States, and the war thus cemmo! by him has been made the act of tho government ani nation over which he rules. ‘They ‘have not only adopted this war, but they have gone to Yhe extrome of inciting portions of our people to revolt against the State auwthorifies; by intimidation they have tained contro) af the remnant left of a Conyention de- — its powers from those authorities, and using it as a |, they have trough it set np an insurrectionary government in epen rebellion against the State.

JACKSON, ‘Governor of Missouri, PROCLAMATION OF THE REBEL LIEUTE- NANT’GOVERNOR OF MISSOURI. Fo THE Propie oF Missorni:— In an address to you on tho 8th inst., I stated that, on #9 propex oooasion and ata propor time, our brethren of the South would extend us ciflcient aid in our struggle for our Itberties. That occasion and that time have arrived. ‘Sho sun whieh shone jn its full midday splendor at Ma- massas is about to rise upon Missouri. At the in Governor Jackson, expressed through Major F. of St, Louis, Commissioner of Missouri to the Con States, and in gratification of the wish which during the Inat two months J have labored to accompiish, I return to the State to aceompany, in my oflleial capacity, onc of the armics which the warrior statesman, whose genins now presides over the affairs of our half of the Union, has Prepared to advance against the common foe. In’ thns doing justice to the warm and active sympath President and people of the Confederate States for our cause, I also fect bound to allude to the very essential aid rendered.us by Major Cabell. As our commitsioncr, he has displayed at Montgomery and Richmond a zeal and ability In our behalf which deBerve the very highest praise. He remains at Richmond to represent oiir interosts. It gives me great pleasure thus publicly to acknowledge his im- t services. Governor Jackson having considered it desirable for him to visit Richmond, I had intended to await his return to Missouri before I should enter the State; but on consul- tation with Major General Polk and General Pillow, we baye ail come to the conclusion that substantial reagons wounsel my presence here. Our constitution provides that, in the absence of the Governo- from tho State, the Lieutenant Governor ‘shall possess all the powers and dis- charge all the duties of governor;”” but I shall, of course, rogerve for Governor Jackson's decision all motters of im: portance which admit of delay, or concerning which his Sentiments are not fully known t) me, His return, whieh will not be long delayed, wil! relieve me of this responsi- bility and give the State at home the honefits of te patri- otic zeal he is exhibiting in her bebalf at our Southern ital. War diseotves all political unions, Tho Lincoin admi- Distration, by an open war upon our State, commenced by tho perfidions capture of Camp Jackson, has dis- solved the Union which, under the constitution of the Thited States, connected Missouri with the country still ander Mr. Lincoln's sway. Its acisfully justify separation on the part of our State, or revolution on the part of indi- vidual citizens. The Lincoln government and its parti- sang have distinctly announced their intention to decide by force ths future destiny of Missouri; their opponents, aieays willing to accept the decision of the people, are nevertheless compelled to meet tho issue tendered by the enemies of her sovercignty. The wish of her people to remain under the same government with that sister- hood of Southern commonwealths to which she has be- longed is clear from the conduct of her oppressors; had they not felt cortain of defeat in a reference of the ques- tion toher people, they would never have resorted to force to retain futhe Northern Union. For theso reasons, holding that the bond which has nited us to the North has boon virtually broxen by the unprovoked tyranny of the Lincoln government, and the approval of that tyranny by the Congress and ‘people of t section, I consider every citizen of Missouri fully re- Jieved of obligation to regard it. Our country being par- Unlly overrun by focs, our General Assembly’ cannot now be convened. The convention cailed into existence by tho Legislature, merely as an advisory body to present to the bouple, at the proper time, the question of separation from the North, has boon virtually dissolved by the acts of the onomy in banishing and imprisoning many of its members, and thus giving tho minority tho appearance of a majority of the body, At ite present session, held Dayonets, its members admittod to its hall by passes from the local instrument of the Lincoln des- ge resistance of a patriotic minority may ilin preventing attempts to betray the honor and dig- nity of aState. Reduced toa more rump, it may become Aconveniont tool of foes, but its acts cannot decide the destiny of Missouri, The patriotic members still in it onghit to leave a body in which the nauseating atmosphere of military tyranny stifles free debato; tho others, gone oygr {o the publiy enowy, elthor tarovgh inborn doprayity iriver, He has usurped gress, in declaring war unholy 16 into slavish subjection and have been quartered in owners thereof, and ‘The right of the people to fo has utterly ignored the binding force of them im positions of or unmanly fear, should hasten to the feet of the Northern despot to seek their expected rewards, where thrift may follow Samning. ‘To provide for this very condition of things, our Gene- ral Assembly, in May last, passed an act (which I am. proud to say originated in Suggestions made by me to tts proposer, ‘Senator Johnson, of St. Louis), by which, ia view of the rebellion in St.’Louis and the invasion of our ‘State, the Governor was “authorized to take such meas- ‘ures 4s in bis Judgment he may deem necessary or Pp to repal such invasion or put down such rebellion.”” As that rebellion and invasion haye been sanotioned by the government and people of the North, one of the most proper measures to protect our interests is attissolution of fall connection with:them. In the present ondition of Mis- souri the executive is the only constitutional authority left in the free exercise of legitimate power within hor limits. Her motto, «, ‘populi suprema tex esto,” be his guide; to him “let the people’s welfare be est law.” ‘Under existing circumstances It is his luty to accept the actual situation of affiirs, and ‘the real issues by making, under the statute above mentioned, and sabject to the future control of the General Assembly and the people, a provisional declara- tion, in tho name and an behalf of the people of Missouri, that her union with the Northern States has been dis- — pihras acs Aen upon i ae ler is, of right ought to be, asovereign, free and indepen- decease 4 ron ‘The conviction that the decision of this question can be safely left to the patriotism of Governor Jackson, and would more properly emanate from the regular Executive of the State. is the only ground for my not exercising the powers of Governor temporarily in me invested, and at once issuing a formas declaration to that effect.’ But in order that my position, both asa citizen and offleer of Missouri’s government, sity distinctly understood, I deem it proper to declare that, disrezarding forms and, looking to realities, I view any ordinance for her se} tion from the Norrh and union with the Confederate eS us & mere Outward ceremony to give notice to oth- ers of anact already consummated inthe hearts of her People: and that, consequently, all persous co operating with the expedition Laccompany will expect that, in the country under its iufluence, no ‘authority of the United States of Ameriva will be permitted, and that of Missouri as asovercign fd independent State, will be exercised with a view to her speedy regular uaion with her South- ern sisters, It is almost unnecessary to announce that the operations of — the Confederate States forces and the Missouri State troops cooperating with them, will be conducted accerding to the most humane principles of civilized negular warfare. — With- out determining in advance what reparation should be exacted for the inhuman outrages perpetrated in Missouri, under the countenance of the brutal proclamations issued by the Lincoln leaders, Lyon, @ur- tis, Pope and others, Iwill give at least this assurance, tiat, expecting better things from Major General Fre- mont, the State authorities will doubtless afford bim an carly opportunity of determining whether the war is hereafter to be conducted by his forces and partisans in accordance with civilized usages. The shooting of wo- men and children, the firing into the windows of a crowded court of justice, at St. Lonis, the cowardly acts of the Lincoln soldiery’ towards such respectable and patriotic citizens as Alexander Kayser and A. W. Simp- son, the arbitrary arrests of ¢x-Sevator Green, Mr. Knott ‘Mr, Bags and other distinguished citizens, the murder of Dr, Palmer, the summary shooting of unarmed men in North Missouri without the form even of dram head court martial, and many other transactions sanctioned or left unpunished by Genera} Fremont’s predecessors, up ee barities which would disgrace even Comanches. 2) acts cannot hereafter be prevented by motives of hu- manity, considerations of an enlightened military policy may be awakened in him by the retalliation which, in subjection to the laws of civilized warfare, but swift,sure, ample, stern, unrelenting, and, if necessary, bloody, the Missouri State authorities feel themselves’ both’ able and determined to institutd. On the — Lincoin government will rest the entire respotisibility, be- fore God and in history, for the character of a war which, if continued as it has “been begun by their’ forces in our State, will soon become one of the most bloody and ca- lamitous on record; for the Grizzly Bear of Missouri, not avery amiabio animal, even when merele supporting her shicld in time of peace, will be a rathless foe when let loose on those who, having causclessly oxcited his ire will be certain to get, sooner or later, within reach o his death dealing paws. To those Missourians who desire to co-operate with this expedition, specite information will be duly given of the course they.should pursue. While the military operations of the Confederate States against the common foo will most materially aid ds in our struggle for freedom, yet our ultimate deliverance must af course depend puon our own exertions. Let every Missourian prepare himself to take part in our war of tndependeuco; in due season that et will be indoated to him. But aboye all, let us hum- ly invoke the.aid of Almighty God, the sure refuge of Phe oppressed; for Ho has deolared that ‘‘ the battle is not Strong, ner yet faver to men of skill, but vime and chance happeneth to them all.”* Citizens of Missouri, in this decisive crisis of our destiny, lot us rally as one man to the stand- ard our State. ‘The inecription on the border of Missouri’s shield warns us against division among ourselves. “United we stand, divided wo fall.” Iparticularly address myself to those who, though South- ern in fooling, have permitted a tove of peace to fea thom astray from thé State cause. You now see the State au- thorities about to assent with powerful forcos their con- stitutional rights; you behold the most warlike population on the glube, the people of the lowor Missiseippi valicy, about to rush wit their pleaming bowie knives and un erring rifles to aid us in ‘ing out the abolitionists and . their Hessian allies. Jf you cordially join our Southern friends the war must spon aepart Missouri’s borders; you still continue, either in apathy or in indirect sapport of the Lineein government, you only bring ruin on your- seives by fruiticesly oe the contest. The road to peace and internal seourity is ety through union with the South. We will receive you as brothers, and ict hy- gones be bygones; rally to the Stara and Bara in union with our eirions ensign of the Grigzly Bear. Confederate ‘State forces, under the gallant Pillow have entered Missouri on the invitation ef Governor Jack- s0n, to aid us in expelling the enemy from the State; they should therefore be rereived by every patriotic citizen as friends and allies. By virtue of the powers vested in Governor by the act befdre mentioned, approved May, Bs s1, entitled “‘An Qct to authorize the Governor of the ate of Missouri ‘to suppress rebellion and repel inva- sin,’ I do hereby, as acting Governor of Missouri, in the temporary absence of Governor Jackson, authorize, em- power and request General Pitow to make and enforce such’civil police regtilations as he may decom necessary for the security of his forces, the preservation of order and discipline in his camp, aud the protection of the lives and property of the citizens. By virtue of the same act Taiso extend like euthority to Brigadige General Thom-p son, from whose miktary experience afd spirit brilliant services are confidently expected, in his command of the Missouri Stato Guard in this district. THOMAS €. REYNOLDS, Lieutenant Governor of Missouri. New Manns, Mo,, July 31, 1861. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. Sunpay, August 18, 1961. Our importations of forcigu goods continue to decline. Last week they were barcly more than a quarter ef the importations of the corresponding weck last year, and a fifth of the importations of the corresponding weck of 1859. For the first time many months the export table shows a falling off for last week, as compared with the corresponding week of Jast year. This, however, arises from the fact that at this season last year our exports be gan to be very heavy. The apparent balance against the port inthe general account of its for- cign trade for the current year continues to de. cline; it is now less than $5,060,000. The follow- ing are the tables of the trade of the port for the week and since January 1:— IMvoRTs. 1859. 1860.

It is doubtful whether the bank reserve of coin Will pass the $50,000,000 point in the statement to be published to-morrow, though it is certain that there are more than fifty millions in coin in bank at the present time. Last Monday the banks showed an average of $48,630,116, an increase of $2,403,935 from the week previous. Since then a California steamer has arrived with over a millionin coin, and some money has been received from the Mint and elsewhere. Our receipts of specie from Europe have ceased for the present, owing to the timnness of exchange. But there is no doubt of the be reserve continuing to incr ithstand The modification of the Sub-Tre by the last Congress will prey taking coin out of the banks, while the issue of small notes by government, payable on demand, will prevent coin flowing to ti and South. Instead of a dozen boxes of being despatched to St. Louis, Wheeling or ¢ the Sub-Treasury will now simply send a bundle of ‘Treasury notes, which, being redeemable in coin on presentation, wil! of course pass current everywhere, and be retained in cireu- Jation as a convenient substitute for bank notes or gold. ‘he banks will continue to receive gold from California, which, so long as there is no export demand, will swell thei, specie reserve at the rate of at least two millions a month, It isa remarkable fact, and one which il- lustrates alike the common sense of the American people and the absurdity of the secessiunist talk about the suspersion of cie payments by the banks, that at uo time since this country hada NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, AUGUST 19, 1861. specie currency was there less hoarding than there has been during the panic and distress and com- mercial disorder of the past few months. No one seoms afraid to trust the banks. Every one has confidence in their solvency. This fact alone scta at rest the bugbear theories which are set forth in the rebel organs in this city. The loans last Mon- day amounted to $109,988,942—a decrease of $1,735,169 from the week previous, A further de- cline is expected to-morrow in consequence of the liquidation which is going on in business. Itie possible, however, that the purchases of Treasury notes may offset the decline from this cause, The details of the recent negotiation between the BO vernment and the banks are being settled, and we presume that early next week the new dreasury notes will begin to figure in our bank discounts and deposits. As the war progresses we may expect to see s large increase in our bank loans. Indeed, independently of national considerations, it is for the interest of the banks that their loans should increase, and that largely. When their average specie reserve was $20,000,000 they considered it perfectly safe to lend $120,000, 000 to merchants, and the discount average fre- quently approached $130,000,000. At this rate, with aspecie average of $50,000,000, the loans ought to be $300,000,000 in order that the banks may carn proper dividends, In expanding, moreover, on a basis of government credit, the banks are far more secure than they were when their discounts con- sisted wholly of mercantile paper. ‘The money market continues quite dull. There is very little paper offering, and buyers, last week, seemed willing to await the result of the national negotiation before parting with their means, From ail that we can learn at present, everybody seems satisfied with the soundness of the principles on which the banks have acted, and there will be a brisk demand for the 7 3-10 Treasury notes. Money cannot be loaned on call at over 5 per cent, and those who have large sums are often obliged to be satisfied with 3 and 4. In the Stock Exchange nothing which offers the same security as the new ‘Treasury notes affords the same income to the holder. The Prospect is, therefore, that the large class of per sons who usually employ their means in the purchase of mercantile paper and railway stocks and bonds will now begin to buy Treasury notes, and it is quite likely that before the 15th of October the whole $50,000,000 taken by the banks will be in the hands of the public. We are informed that the 7 3-10 notes will be ready to be issued this week, and will be followed very speedily by the demand notes for $5 and $10, No more 6 per cent notes will be issued by the department, and no notes except those on demand for any less sun than $50. A rumor reached this city yesterday to the effect that the Massachusetts banks would only take $10,000,000 of Treasury notes, instead of the $15,000,000 allotted to them in the scheme of distribution adopted at the bank meeting. On receipt of the news our banks at once agreed to take the extra $5,000,000, making their subscrip- tion $35,000,000. A despatch from Boston, how- ever, contradicts the flust story, and asserts that the country banks of Massachusctts will take $5,600,000 of the notes, and the banks of Boston $10,000,000. Exchange closed rather more firmly for the steamer yesterday, the bankers asking 1071444 for their sterling bills, and 6.3334 a 35 for thefr france. There is very little business doing, how- ever, and the market cannot be said to be in a healthy state. There fs no demand for bills from the trade, and the supply from the exporters is qnite limited. At presont rates there $s no profit on importations of gold from Europe, and thus speculators are not tempted to operate in bills, and bankers are careful not to buy more than they can sell, It was hoped a week ago that bills would de- cline toa point which would enable bankers to buy for the sake of importing coin. But the first decline of 4 per cent or so in rates did not increase the demand, and the leading houses reverted to the old figures. The steady decline in our importa- tions, combined with the constant demand for American breadstuffs abroad, enables the United States to dispense with cotton shipments and yot to keep exchange in their favor.

In the board bulls and bears are pretty well balanced, though the former seem to have the most courage and money. They have been disappointed by the failure of the mar- ket to respond to the recent government negotia- tion. But the fact is, the railroads are earning no money, and State stocks are about being repudiated by the rebels: what inducement is there for any one to buy, under these circom- stances? That the issue of several hundred mil- lions of government securities may cause an infla- tion is quite probable, But this will require time, and speculation must first seize upon government stocks and Treasury notes, and carry them up to a handsome premium. When the 73-10 per cent Treasury notes are in brisk demand at3a4 per cent premium over and above the interest accrued, it will be fair to expect a movement in railway shares. As to Virginias, Tennessees, and the other stocks of the rebel States, the presumption is over- whelming that the Legislatures of the several States will carry into effect the recommendation of the rebel Congress and confiscate all bonds held by “alien enemies.” Sneha trick affords to Vir- ginia the only chance she has of staggering along un der her enormous debt, and it would not be a whit more disreputable than the absolute repudiation of mercantile debts which has been ordered, under heavy penalties, by the seyeral rebel Legislatures. We are requested by several influential members of our financial community to republish, for the in- formation of the government, the following resolu- tion, which was unanimously adopted at the mect- ing of bankers on Thursdays.
