Hence the obstacles which beset us in endeavoring to determine in advance cise mode in which the sweppage of the rent, and ible removal of Messrs, Slide!l and Mas n will’bo considered in Great Britain. Still we are not absolutely left to pare conjecture ia the premises, We may gather some indirect ey leacs from previo: s outgivings of the leading London sheets, and from circumstances within the ken of intelligent absery- ors. For exumpie:—We are all aware that two of the prominent organs of the present Ministry cf England have recently pot forth ertieles in which the stro gest repugnance is intimated to the slightest government in- tervention in the conflict now in progress in (his country. We allude to the London Pos and tie fimes—the former the dircet exponent and defender of the Palmerston admin- istration: the latter, a sort of quasi-indeperdunt sournal, wluch rarely offers much opposition to the powers that be. Both these able prints almit the gravity of the et ton question, vet one cf them affects to think.that we of share still very far from laving esiabished ered government de facto; whi'e tho isos tho people of Great firitais t9 ict the in the jaterim do Neither appears dis- deprecating axy int tvention whatever, From this we may conclude whetucr the Rritish govern- ment will bo itkely to adopt any stringent measu.e which ¥ expeso it to the prooabilty of a war with the Fovtod States.

These arrivals stimulated the action of the Mexican authoritics in this place, and the work of removing cannon and munitions was carried shead with great activity. Gencrai Uraga, the Geaeral- in-Chief of operations, pushed matters as rapidly as possi- bie; but on the afternoon of the 14th a panic was oveated by the sudden and unexpected action of the Spanish Ad: miral, who passed note to the lecal authorities inti- mating that this place must be surrendered to him, giving twenty-four Lours for an answer as to whether this would be done without the use of force, This note was mjsun- de:stood by General Uraga to mean that if the placo were not surrendered wit)in twenty-four hours force would be used, and he in consequence at once ordered by decree an evacuation, threatening to shoot every Mexican for trea- son who remained here beyond the afternoon of the 15th. The consequence of this decree was a precipitate flight of a@ large number of families and all the employes of the government. Everything in the shape of a horse, a mule or a donkey was in demand, and nearly every vehicle in the place was at once wheeled out, loaded and started off with piles of trunks and bexes, and crowds of women, children, cats, dogs and parrots on top. The scene at the railroad station was such es may be scon at fires in great cities. Crowds of people, of ail ages and sexes, carrying all manner of use- lees things, and jostling each other tobe first, without ap- parently having the slightest idea of what they were gving to do or where they were going to do it. Whilst all this was .oing on the few moro discreet natives quiet- ly bid themselves in their houses to lot the tempest pars. By nigitfalien the 15th the crowd had gone from here, and the streets were like the aveuues of a graveyard, Not a citizen was to be secn lounging under the portals or about the doorsof the closed cafes. Oniy now and again were secn dark objects in the sido streets, fitting along like frightened spirits. These were Mexicans wound up 1a their scrapes, changing their hiding places or stealthily taking leave of friends. By nine o’clock the foreign merchants, ia ¢ombiaation with the Municipal Council, formed a foreign guard for the security of the place, and a suficient number of young men, clerks, &€., were found to do duty. ‘tho following day intec- course was opened between the Municipal Coun- cil and the Spanish Admival, when the latter ex- pressed bis surprise at what had taken piace bere, say- ing it was not bia intention to have commenced hostili- tias witho..t a formal agnouncement to that effect. ‘The Municipal Council tucn asked Lim te send forces on shore 40 reseve the ioreigu residents from their tiresome sor- view. ‘This was not done tiit the following day, and the foreign residents the.eture came in ior wo nights of cis. ecubie duty.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. Frrpay, Jan, 3—6 P. M. Business continues to suffer from the state of suspense in which our financial affairs remain. To- day several of the banks are calling in their loans, with a view to strengthen their position. Sound policy would seem to dictate the opposite course of conduct. The loan certificate system, instead of being abandoned, should be pursued to its legi- timate limit—namoly, the amount of government securitics in the hands of the banks. By this means, and by this alone, will the banks be able to pro- tect their assets, and discharge the functions to the community which they were established to per- form. They will find a precedent for this policy in the system pursued by the Bank of England. Con- gress is not in session; but we learn that on Mon- day the Committee of Ways and Means will be ready with their project. The papers are full of reports about the financial schemes of the com- mittee. Suffice it to say that Mr. Stevens and his colleagues have no choice in the matter, and have had none for six weeks. For at least six weeks it has heen obvious that government would be compelled to pay its way in an irredeemable paper currency, and that the Committee of Ways and Means couid do no more than arrange the details of the scheme. It is probable that authority wil! be granted to Mr. Chase to issue, say one or two hundred millious of Treasury notes, bearing either no interest ut all, or asmall rate of interest payable after a certain date, and convertible at any time into United States sixes. These will probably be made a legal tender. For the security of the payment of these notes, the interest on them and the bonds into which they may be converted, it is to be hoped that Congress will enact a sweeping and a heavy system of taxa- tion. The people are able and willing to pay heavy taxes for the suppression of the rebellion; and, unless a sum of one hundred millions a year be raised by direct taxation, there is great reason to fear that the goverament paper will rapidly depre- ciate. We understand that the refusal of some of our leading banks to receive government demand notes on deposit arises simply from a desire to accelerate the action of Congress in the maiter of taxes. Itis, of course, obvious that this refusal cannot long be maintained; the banks cannot per- sist in refusing to consider the new notes as money when they are made a legal tender; but time will be saved, and an unpleasant controversy terminated at once, if the act imposing taxes enough to yield an adequate revenue be immediately passed. Ample revenue canbe obtained by the imposition of a light tax on real and personal property of all kinds, on deeds, bonds, notes, wills, and all instr iments conveying or pledging property; on bank notes, insurance policivs, stuck in railway, canal, manu- facturing and other incorporated eompanies; on newspapers and other periodicals; on the incomes of forcigners residing here and doing business with- out intending to become citizens; on spirits, wines, ales, tobacco, and on all articles of luxury manu- factured or used in the country. Money is in good demand at seven per cent, but it cannot be stated that there is any great difficulty in getting loans, Gold is wanted by the brokers at 1% per cent premium, and the price seems to be tending upward. Foreign exchange is firm at 113 per cent for ster- ling, and 5.05 for franes. At these rates gold cau be shipped without loss, after paying the ruling pre- mium, and we look for substantial ship- ments of coin. The Asia brought $7,200 this morning. Brokers in exchange predict an ad- vance of 3 a 4 per cent before long. There is as usual, an active speculation going on in bills. The large amount of our exports and the steady decline in our imports do not look like an advance in exchange; but in the present state of things no prediction can safely be made. The dry goods im- port for the week only amounts to $460,642, against $1,869,381 same week last year, and $2,937,221 same week of 1359. The aggregate for the year 4 $13,636,639, against $103,927,100 in 1860, and $113,152,624 in 1859. At this rate we must be ac- cumulating a balance in our favor on the other side. The stock market displays a moderate amount of ictivity, without material variation in prices. Yesterday the tendency was upward; to-day it was downward, but the decline was slight. At the first board ttt Erie and the Westera shares fell of 349 5%, the chief decline being in Rock Island and Michigan Central, which fell 1 per cent. Missouris also declined 144. After the board the market was dull, and continued so at the second hoard; but at the close of business thers was a smart rally, and about half the decline of the morning was recovered. The market closed steady, the owing being the last quotations: United States 6's, registered, 1891, 96% a 87; United States 6's, coupon, 1981, 874 a 88; United States 6's, cou- pon, 1874, a 78%; Indiana 5's, — a 76; Virginia 6's, 49% 250; Tennessee 6's, 41 a 414%; North Carelina 6's, 60 a 60; Missouri 6's, 39% a =e Pacific Mail, 9234 2 9224; New York Central, 7994 7074; Erie, 21% 432; do. preferred, 52% a a8 Hudson River, 37 a 37%; Harlem, 11% a 12; do. preferred, 29% a 29%; Reading, 35% a 3534; Michigan Central, 47% a 4734; Michigan Southern and Northern Indiana, 18% a 19; do. guaranteed, -— a 39%; Panama, 11044 a 110%; IMinois Cen- tral, 614% a 62; Galena and Chicago, 655% a 65/ Cleveland and Toledo, 34 a 3434; Chicago and Rock Island, 505% a 5074; Chicago, Burlington and Quincy, 566 a 68; “Milwaukee and Prairie du Chien, 18 a 19; Cleveland, Columbus and Cineinnati, 104 a —; New York Central 7's, 1876, 101 a 10134; Erie third mortgage bonds, 86 a 88; Michigan Central 8's, first mortgage, 9194 a 9234; Illinois Central bonds, 7's, 86 a 83.
