Tue Hoy. Ferxanpo anp tae Hoy. Ben, Woov.—These two conspicuous, but mieguided end unlucky peace agitators, have now all parts of the world before them from which to choose. Very little sympathy is expressed for the Hon. Fernando, in falling short of a re- election to Congress, for the idea has become prevalent among the politicians that he is a cold, calculating, cruel, remorseless and unscrupu- lous intriguer, with whom “the end justifies the means.” We think he would do well now to give up the cares, turmoils, expenses and dis- Sppointments of New York politics, and in- dulge himself inan airing abroad. He has the manners, graces and accomplishments of the polished gentleman, and would doubtless be received in this character among the courtly circles of Europe, beginning with a return visit to his distinguished guest of 1860, the Prince of Wales. The Hon. Fernando has in ‘bis day been a busy, enterprising and success- ful man, in various occupations, steadily rising from his first unpretending appearance on the tage as the right hind leg of “the elephant” to his present position. Why, then, should -he not retire from business, and make the toar of Europe? As tor the Hon. Ben. Wood, he is regarded Tatber as the victim than the victimizer of the party cormorants surrounding him. He has the reputation of “a good,,frank, clever fellow,” generous to a fault, but unfortunately too apt to follow a secession constitutional abstraction into the miasmatic swamps of South Carolina. Let him give up politics, and if he has any con- stitutional scruples against lottery tickets, there are various other profitable pursuits in which his practioal business talents may be turned to a@ good account. It would be better to turn the Daily News into a house of refuge for po- litical and literary Bohemians, than to maintain it longer as a Jeff. Davis organ of peace-at-any- price. EWS FROM WASHINGTON.

He has no idea of asking for Qny new loan whatever before the opeving of Congress, The seven-thirties will atill be kept open for subscription, but no new loan is to be authorized or proposed. HON. ROBERT J. WALKER AND THE NATIONAL FI- NANCES. Hon, Robert J. Walker arrived here to-day, He has as yet received no official information of the desire of the govesoment that he sbould assume charge of the Treasury portfolio, but no doubt is entertained by the Knowing ones here that Mr. Walker's return is precur- sory to his introduction tothe Treasury Department. ‘His ability and intimate acquaintance with our financial affairs are universally acknowicdged. He bas expressed the opinion that our finances can be so managed as to Driag our currency nearer to par than it has been during the war, and those most interested in our financial suce cess hail bis probable advent into the Treasury as a bappy day fer the nation. @SRONG PRESSURE FOR TER REMOVAL OP SECRETARY STANTON. ‘Tho Pennsylvania republican leaders have resumed heir raid on the President, and insist upon the suppres- iow of Mr. Stanton in the Cabinet kitchen as a sine qua fon vf their support of the administration » hereafter. ‘They want Genera: Butler, and represent that Pennsylva- nia particularly, and the country generally, will not be @atisfod until the change is made.

Birney, tate commander of the corps, to the matter of a cubstantial and enduring testimonial to bis exalted patriotism and his brilliant qualities as a soldier aud a man. On the evening of the day of General Birney’s funeral @ reception was given to Major General Daniel K. Sickles, one of the distinguished pall bearers, in the Philadelphia. Academy of Music, whereat the following significant re- marks were made by bis Excellency Governor Curtin:— Today (October 21) 1, with others, followed to the grave a soldier of the republic, late a citizen of Philn- deiphia, Tknew him well. Indeed, Thud the honor of giving bim his first cominiasion, I'was connected with every promotion be received from the national gevorn- meni, and followed him with pleasure, as he became more distinguished, from battle to battie,and became dearer and dearer to truly loyal men everywhere. And Philadelphia did herself honor to day when ahe honored the remains of General David B. Birney. (Cheers.) He bad braved the dangors of battle forty times, yet his life was spared that he mizbt return to die in the midst of his loving family. Ever remembering the old flag under which he had go often fought, he exclaimed with bis last breath, and as his life went out, “Boys, keep your eyes on that Great cheering.) Aud so the noble Birnoy fills a soldier's grave, And he has left a wife and children be- hind him. Tbave frequently committed to the people of Pennsylvania the care of the soldier's wife and children, and now we have a law of our Commonwealth by wh! we aseist to nurtare the destitute orptans of our bri martyred heroes. (Applause.) While 1 ask not for char. ity, I trust in justice that the people of Philadelphia wit not forget the six little children of General Birney. This pertinent and forcible speech of Govervor Curtin’s hada prompt eilect. The next day (22d of October) a meeting of the friends and associates of General Birney was called at Parlor C, Continental Hotel, Phitadelphia, for the evening of the 24th of October. This meeting, which is now believed to be for the first time made public, was very largely attended by both the wealth and the in- tellect of Philadelphia, and had for its result the raising and investment of tho sum of thirty-two thousand dollars for the benofit of the widow and children. This, taken in connection with the pension of a major general dying in the service, and amounting to somewhere between one hundred and fitty and two hundred dollars each month, will constitute an easy malotenance for the aiflicted widow and ker children. It is thought that the Teath corps, ever equally gallant and generous, wherein the la- mented Birney was 80 well beloved and appreciated, will avail themselves of an opportunity to make a substantial addition to the noble fund, in memoriam of their dear Dut dead leader.

THR RLNCTION AT THE FRONT. ~The retarns of tho Presidential election he!d through: out the country to-day are now reaching us both from the North and from the several armies. The results from the forces in the neld, as faras they have reached General Grant’s beadquarters at City Point, both from the Army of the Potomac and the Army of the James, indi- cate an approach to unanimity for Mr. Lincoin, which, as it relates to the former army, ts indeed curious, and the fact lends us another demonstration of the uncer- tainty of politics, From the North we hear the returos to-night, which, deing submitted to us by General Grant, conclusively lead us to believe that the several Northern States have Pretty effectually imitated the army in their unanimity for Lincoln.
