There were not a few gloomy faces eithor,I assure you, among loyal men at the thought that once moro our forces had been obliged to tall back in their onward march towards the rebel eapital, and not a little indignation expressed at the fact—which, from all the circumstances, we are led to believe is one for party purposes—that so many thousands of braye men were rushed prematurely forward to thoir death, In conversation yesterday with an admiral of the French Davy, ho expressed the opinion that the attempt by our forces upon the vebel intrenchments was one of the most gailant and daring exploits ever performed, and ‘ono which will long live in history as an evidence of Amo- rican bravery. While admiring the bolduess of such a movement, however, he deprecates its policy, and says ‘that intrenchmeats should only be atiacked with an over- whelmingiy superior force. ‘The Paris press bas not been so lavish of {ts comments upon this affair as might, from its importance, have been expected and it is worthyof remark that the government or- gans do not, on this occasion, as they always have hereto. fore when any great battle has occurred, demand, in terms more or less positive, that Europe should interfere to put fn end to the American war, and it is not atail improba- ble that they have been requested to keep quiet, in accord. ‘ance with the statement 0: the Minister of Foreign Affai to Mr. Dayton (and which was not a mere verbal one, Dut contained ina despatch written from Compiegne a Tew days previous to the departure of tne Emperor), that France did not intend renewing her mediatioa offer.

The former, who ‘wore very sullen last year, are in a more placable humor this, and have, it seems, made up their minds to submit to what Cannot be altered, especially as they have a fair prospect of being indewniled by political rights for the social privileges they are deprived of, and which they could hardly expect to pursue much longer in an age Like ours.

Serious Cost of the Expedition to France. (From the Paris Presse, Dec. 30.} * % #* © Ibis impossible not to be struck, in glanc- ing at the figures presented by the Minister of Finance, with the enormous influence which the Merican expedition must exercise upon (he present and fulure situation of the finances of the country. M. Fould counts upon an excess of receipts of one hundred and ten ruillions tn 1863, but declares that the Mexicau expedition will absorb a part of thatsum, The necessity of applying the surplus of re- ceipts in 1863 to the expenses of thal erpedition has besides compelled the Minister to diminish by seventcen millions the sum applied to the extraordinary budget: in spite of that reduction he must, in ordor to meet the necessities of the budget, prepare fresh resources; thus he will take twenty millions from the dotation of the sinking fund, and dimiuish by the same amount the reserves of the ordinary budget. In addition, he will offer for sale a part of the resinous timber on the downs along the coast, which will pro- cure him a sum of twelve millions. The effect of the Mexi- can jition wilt make itself felt in the years 1892; 1863 and 1864, andwill alse weigh — npon the, ring deik. As it absorbs the whole or a part of the surplus receipts, itwill for atime be an obstacle to a roduction of the decouverts. But the correlation which oxists between the d.couverts avd the floating debt is well known. The ope- ration of the conversion of 434 into 3 per cents, which has cast so great a perturbation on the market of the rente, is ‘thus atiected in its resulte; andmore than that, there is not much probability that the conversion of what remains of the 43; per cents can be soon attempted. M. Fould report contains no expression on that subject tant leads to the belief that the final unification of the debt, if among his desires, is at the present moment hoped for by him. Another fet of the Mexivan expedition is that it has obliged th: Minister of Finance to majntain ia the budget of 1864 the bases established by the Committee of the Leg- islative body on the budget of 1863. It may be remembered that, instead of one hundred and twelve mil- ons which were asked for by M. Fould, the coi. mitice only granted seventy-four millions’ of fresh ‘gee; but wifilst out of the one hundred and twelve millions demanded by the honorable minister, sixty- at milliows appeared in the extraordinary exponsca, 1d were in consequence inscribed on the budget as provisional, the seventy-four miilions admitted by the committee were applied to the ordinary budget, and con- sequently served ® pay permanent expenses. Every one knows how taxes admitted as temporary are continued, especially when they form part of a budget of which the elements tend to become definitive. Placed in face of the exigencies of an external situation, the consequences of which can be foreseen by no one, M. Fould haz ne doubt found that method of proceeding more convenient ; he has, In fact, laid down the bases of his budget upon the con- cessions which had been mace to bim by the committee. So that if it is truo that the budget of 1864 will be balanced without any necessity to bave recourse to fresh taxes, if is not the Jess true that the supplementary taxes voted last year as temporary are majutained ju the chap- ter of receipts, without anything to show when they will disappear. The Policy and Position of Spain. [From the London Post (government organ), Jan. 1.1 * * * Jn the meantime, the language of Marchal O*Donnell at Madrid seems to imply that Spain nas wiped her hands altogether and dednitively of intervention in Mexico. In all the difficultice of the care, we can haraly Tegret this, although it must be acknowledged that the language of the Spanish Prime Minister is, toa rather striking degree, the reverse of conciliatory to a neighboring Power. What he says of the deoeptto Practiced by Almonte is, however strictly true; and we rajoice that the French government has been so fully alive to them as to abridge very materially ite political programme, and to dis- card all intention of conforming the Mexican republic to a European model, or of rendering itselfdu any way re- sponsible for the future government of that vast tract of country. Marshal O'Donnel! says truly that Spain, like Great Britain, had no intention of upsetting the Juarez government. ' Her aim was merely that, like our own, of securing indemuities for Spanish, British and French residents in Mexico, who had suffered in person through the misconduct of the native authorities. ‘The French, however, fee! now bound in henor to chastise their ene- my. France, happily, is governed by a sovercign who is content with’ the solid authority of his government in Europe, and is too astute to be led away into impracticable schemes of political propagandism across the Atiautie, such as the exploded motions of Almonte may have once ruggeited.

TON NORTH OF THE RAPPAHANNOCK, A galiant and successful achievement of General Wade Hampton, one of the brigadier generals under General Stuart, has greatly raised the spirits of the Confederates to-day, and e.ves further to illustrate that faintness of spirit which I had endeavored to deseribe as pervading tho federal army. Accomnanied by one hunared and tweaty cavalry, General Hampton crossed the Rappabannock, and fell in with ninety-two men, including five officers, of the Pennsylyauian cavalry, who instautly surrendered without firing a shot or attempting to oucape and were carried back across tho stream by Gen Hampton, with their valuabie carbines (much prized by the Confederate cavalry), about 100 horses, and their equipments, not to mention the warm overcoats of the men, which are no slight item in the month of December. Iv is’ to the credit of the Southern troops, that never, whatever their destitutioa in boots and shoes may have becn, have they stripped off the boots ef their federal prisoners. Considering what the feelings are with which the Virginians regard the invaders of their aoil, the b'ock- ade which has so loug strangled them, and the wilful destruction of property which hag reduced many a thriv- ing yeoman or trader to abject poverty, it is creditable to them that unfailing courtesy has never ceased to be ex- hibited to the hosts of federals who have becn taken prisoners. COMPEALNTS OB FEDERAL PRISONRRS—HOW JEFF. DAVIS FARES. Some of these prisoners, torn from the Javish luxury of the fedoral camps, the extent of which has never been fully realized in Furope, complain because they are tem- porarily subjected to the ordinary fare of the Southern confederacy. It is nothing to them that this fare is con- tentedly shared by all, from President Davis tothe hum- blest operative. Priuted letters, describing the miseries of prisoners in Richmond, appear in Northern journals. If it were for ® moment conceivable that these journals could desire the outside world to judge fairly between ihe federal and Confederate treatment of prisoners of war, let them print side by side with the above montioned let- ters the frequent barratives of Confederate prisoners | Soamer Fair on what he said touching their treatment in such dens us Fort Delaware, and the attempts to extort daily labor fromthem as they were convicts. ‘‘How vile and execrable a nation the Northern States contain,” remarked President Davis on arecent occasion, ‘1 thought that could estimate; but it remained for this war to teach me to what depths of meanness and infamy it was possible for a people nnd their government to descend. ATTACHMENT OF THE NEGRO TO MS MASTER. A scene which occurred this morning, similar to many which J have witnessed in camp, teaches me whether (he Boston Puritan or tho slaveholding oligarch is the true friend of that African race of which Exeter Hali knows so little and over which it whimpers so much. A fevorite black boy attached Lo General Stuart's service, though not belonging to him, was separated from the Genoral during the Maryland campaign, and, together with two of the general's horses entrusted to his care, was in imminent danger of being captured by the Yaukees. The boy hid himself for several days In the woods, eallying forth at night to get food for his horses, until at last he had an opportunity of consiguing them into safe keeping. He himself, not without much dificulty, last con- trived to get across the Potomac and to rejoin General Jackson’s corps, which lay nearest to the Marylond shore. This morning, as Ceneral ‘« Stonewall” Jackson and his men advan rom their old quarters to Pod the already large army under General Lee, General juart’s boy regained master’s headquarters, and such @ scene occurred baffles descriptivn. General Stuart himself was absent, but all the officers of his staff, with whom ‘Bob’ is a favor hook him warmly by the hand, heard the narrative of his adventures over @ huudred times, and, in fact, gave hima reception which The boy was so over- may be fairly called an ovation, joyed te back that he well nigh shed tears. How many English servants, isolated trom their masters circumstances, witb detection or ponish ment iu case they absconded manifestly impossible, and io possession of two valuable borses, would have faced danger and difficulty tor weeks, in order to be faithful to their trust?

Jan. 1.} A Yorkshiroman, Mr. David Greenbury, died at Scar- borough on Sunday of diptheria, aged 48. ' In early life ho was acoal porter at Malton (whore he was born), and after a short religious profession became a notorious pugilist. In this line he was famed throughout the coun- try, and used to fight with one hand, having the othor tied behind him. He was given to the perpetration of the wildest (reaks, one of which consisted of carrying a live donkey to bed to his paronts. He was upwards of six feet two inches in heizht, and had immense strength, and constituted himself the defender of the weak and de- fenceless. He wis at last defeated by a litle man, and ‘was go exaspersted that he bit off part of his opponent's ear, This was his last fight, and in 1841 he set off to should be his last “ 6) ” BY aaron on the coach gave him a tract, whicl ta the old hymn’ begiuving:-—Stop, poor sinner,’ ‘These words acted so much upon Greenbury’s mind that he returned home a penitent. He was afterwards for some years # preacher among the Wesleyans, ge at Scarborough and Malton, but, being uneducated, hi dyscourses were chiefly narrations of his own mad tricks in carly life. His name was of itself sufficient to fill the chapels. He went about the country exhorting for some time, and eventually married a lady with a competence.

Massachusetts Niggers vs. Ind: TO THE EDITOR OF THE RERALI While you are about it, you had better Minish Mensa. chusetts history, and the negro clement in it. Ifyou will examine the fourth yohime of the Massachuretts (Salem) Historical Collections, you will find the follow. ing:—‘* That red headed Indian, Crispe Squaw Tucks, was the cause of the trouble, and brought the murder mto our midst.” (p. 38) ‘This refers to the so-called ‘Crispus Attucks, a molato,’’ who was killed in the Boston massacre of March, 1770, and about whom so much has been said during the past fifty years by the various puritanical fishermen of New England. ‘The dark bued individual’ whom they have turned into a Sumnecrite nigger, it seems was a red headed Indian, and a troublesome one at that. This matter should be looked into by the learned pundits of the Massachusetts Historical Society, and the question settled whether the radicals are “topping out” their nigger monument with an Indian ora ‘contra- band.” CONSERVATIVE, City Intelligence.

Ae Te TS TRO AT ET SE CES FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. dunnary L4,Suean Euia Warn, 2 days, the only and beloved Tuvespay, Jan. 15-6 P. M. The money market, so far a3 we can learn, is easy enough. Established houses borrow all they want at 6 per cent. Some of the banks and bank- ers demand twenty and twenty-five per cent mar- gins, which inconveniences weak speculators and forces them in some instances to sell their stocks, Bat there is no stringency in the market and no difficulty in getting money. In a very few days competition among lenders will reduce the amount of margin now required to the old figures. So far as the public interest is concerned, the banks had far better lend on stocks than on gold, a8 they are now doing to an enormous extent. The gold speculation is unchecked. Gold sold to-day before the board at 150, at the first board at 1484, at the one P. M. board at 14814, at the second board at 148, and closed at five P. M. at 147% bid. Gold has thus advanced 15 per cent in a couple of weeks, A victory would cause a smart reaction; but itis doubtful whether anything clse would. It is difficult to give reliable quotations for exchange. The bankers ask 163 a 164; but we hear of no transactions at these figures, The business done at the Stock Exchange this morning was very large indeed; but the movement. of prices was rather irregular. Before the hoard 75 was bid for Erie, and other shares were firm at an advance over last evening's prices; but at the regular session enough stock was slaughtered to cause a decline of 1a 134 from the high rates of the morning. Quite a number of weak holders, who are unable to comply with the new require- ments of the banks and put up 20 a 25 per cent margin, are being relieved of their property. This process gives an appearance of weakness to the market, though in reality the amount of orders to buy which are daily executed by the com- mission houses are unprecedented, and a founda- tion is being laid for an advance quite as sudden and extensive as any that have been witnessed. Governments continue weak. The sixes of 1881 declined % this morning, and there were sales of the 7.30 notes at par. State stocks were dull and lower. The movement in these securities appears to have exhausted itself. In railway bonds the business done was small, maialy owing to the light offering. Sharea were very active. Comparing the prices of the first board with those of last evening, we note an advance o ¥ in Pacific, { in Central, % in Hudson, 4 in Michigan Central, *4 in Reading and 1 in Fort Wayne, and a decline of % in Erie, % in Erie preferred, 1 in Harlem preferred, 1 in Galena, % in Rock Island, % in Illinois and 14 in Southern old. The movement in the cheaper fancies is not as active as it waa. Cumberland has fallen 1 per cent and Canton 134. There seems to be quite a movement in Bruns- wick City Land stock, which has been selling pretty largely at 10 per cent. It is intimated by parties who are in the secrets of the concern that arrangements have been made by which Major General Hunter's arrival at the South will be followed by the development of measures cal- culated to render Brunswick City a place of im- portance, with a government navy yard, depot, | &e. As the port is well known to be the best onthe Atlantic south of Norfolk, there may be possibly something in these ramors; enough, at all events, to tempt the cupidity of the speculators who have i thus far made joney by buying stocks, not be. cause they were wort! aiplitag, Bat et tise they” seemed cheap. Atthe one P.M. session of the public board the market was not very active, and there was no material change in prices, At the second board the market opened without change bot rallied at the last, and closed very firm at an advance of£34 a 4 over the morning prices, At the four P.M. session of the public board the market wasall better. Governments were inactive request, at an advance of } for the 7.30 notes and T per cent for the sixes of 1881. There was more disposition to buy railway stocks, and at the close the market appeared to tend upward. The follow- ing were the last quotations: — _Lrox.—On Thursday, January Victox Mi. P.

The President will probably sign the bill to-night, and to-morrow, in all probability, the Na+ tional and American Bank Note companies, which have been preparing for the order for some time, will commence to print the notes. Of the notes of sinall denominations from $750,000 to $1,900,000 can be turned out each day; of the large notes, 000,000 a $9,000,000. Mr. Chase has on band about $26,000,000 of small notes, which are now held in reserve to meet calls for temporary de posits, and he will probably disburse these at | once to the troops, and reimburse himself out of the supplies now to he printed. In forty-five days such are the fucilities of the bank note companies in this city—the whole $100,000,000 will be ¢e- livered. In view of the despatch with which tie government work is done, the beanty of the notes, and the difficulty of counterfeiting them, it is ob- vious that a grave mistake will be committed if the business of engraving the new legal tenders be transferred to Washington. ‘The Erie earnings for December amounted to 21,866, being an inerease over December, 1861, of $219,789, An informal statement of the busi- ness of the road during the year ending Sept. 30 s on Bist of December) shows the following results: Gross carntogs.....- we mses.
