AND COMMERCIAL. Tor AY, August 20—6 P. M. Wall street has been excited to-day by a further decline in gold to 1429; and in Erle to 44, aud great excitement prevailed both in the Gold Roomand on the Stock Exchange at intervals, The principal bears in Erie at the present ume are the directors of the company, and report says that they have purchased te four lines of Boston steamers—namely, the Bris- tol line, the Newport line, the Norwich line and the Flonington line—in addition to leasing the Boston end Providence Ra! , and that they are to pay dor the steamboat property by the issue of convertl- Die bonds. It was further stated that a firm— of which the President of the Erie roaX is a mem- ber—liad given notice that it would deliver to- srorrow the Brie stock which it had sold at sixty tion, and app! nsions were entertained deliveries would be made in new stock, ween! from the convertible bonds in question. Qt is not impossible that the purchase of these Btoamers is part of the present stockjobbing opera- ion in . Some of the directors of the Erie Company, including of course the Executive Com- woiitee, may have bought them ostensibly for the wompany, but in reality merely for the purpose of ‘depressing Erie stock by the means referred to, and Mhe vesseis may be sold back to the former owners - fr other parties when the stratagem has succeeded. Whe summary method of procedure developed in ithe closing of the transfer books yesterday has im- paired whatever confidence remained in the present directors of this great but long mismanaged com- % my, and hence the further decline before no- il Nevertheless, those who hold the stock pill be unwise to sell it now if they have he means to retain their hold of it. The ‘ sbject of the bears is, in their own language, to put fat out of sight; but Wall street always exaggerates, and although it may possibly go considerabiy lower Nut will react with great force, the upward movement Weing probably assisted by those who have been lat- ierly employing all their efforts to depress it, both Wy fair means and foul. Such gross mismanagement fof a great corporation is a public disgrace, wnd if the charter of the Erie Company mits what is sald to have been done by the direc- rs it should be amended, particularly so as to re- uire notice of the closing of the tfansfer books to Ibe given several days in advance of the same. If ithe alleged acta of the.directors are not in accord- ‘ance with the company’s charter they should be promptly investigated by the Attorney General and punished. As it is the causes influencing the decline {in Erie form one of the greatest scandals in the his- ‘tory of Wall street. During the afternoon, although ‘there was no substantial improvement in Erie, the emainder of the railway list experienced a recovery, ‘and New York Central was especially strong. ‘ There is no change to note in the condition of the Money market, and loans are made freely at four er cent on call on mixed collaterals, and in some Instances at three and three and a half on govern- ‘Menis, but exceptional transactions at five per cent ‘for small amounts on railway shares are also re- ‘ported. There is a moderate amount of commercial ‘paper offering for discount, and the best grade passes “@t6a7 per cent. The Western journals refer to considerable receipts of currency from this centre; ‘but it inust be remembered that the banks here have ‘Much to lose, and we can see nothing in the present ‘Bapect of affairs to Warrant apprehensions of strin- gency. * The bears held high carnival in the Gold Room again 0-day, and after opening at 144% and advancing to 944% the price declined to 14334 at three P. M. and Bubsequentiy touched 14334. A rally to 143% @ 144 Buccecded, however, and this was the latest quota- Gon on the street, the tendency being at the time up- ‘ward. Loans were made ‘fat’? and at rates vary- Ang from one to five per cent for carrying. The gross dealings amounted to $07,011,000, the gold baiances to $2,054,247 and the currency balances to $3,505,790. Whesteamer Illinois, for Bremen, took out $6,500 in Bpecie, and the Columbia, for Havana, $175,000, Avhile the Sub-Treasury disbursed $30,000 in coin in Payment of interest. The rumor that the Treasury thas been a seller of gold of late is without founda- tion in fact, except so far as some sales of small ‘Amounts on account of the Interior Department for a Bpecial purpose are concerned. Another rumor tiat ‘B considerable shipmeat of specie had been made at Bouthanipton for this country had its origin in the wBxport of some Spanish doubloons for Havana via New York. With the sterling rate of exchange above 107% there can be no profit in importing specie, and under existing circumstances five-twen- es night be imported from England without loss, Whe price of gold varied at intervals as follows:— 210A.

Notwithstanding the small score and the short time occupied in playing the game, it was what might be termed a lazy game, The batting on either side was remarkably light, the ont flelding was fair, although there was not much of it, and the in field- ing was good but easy.

Dofaleation and Disappearance of an Iren Merchant and Cashier of the Allentown Rolling Milis—Between One and Two Hun- dred Thousand Dollars Missing. {From the Evening Telegram of yesterday 1 PHILADELPHIA, August 20, 130%, There were vague rumors on the street on ‘Tues- day of a defaleation having taken place in the iron trede, but it was impossibie to trace them to re- Itabie source so carefully was the secret kept. Yes- terday, however, it became currently known that Mr. Charles Cabos, of the tirm of Cabot é& Ettinge, iron commission merchants, No, 105 Walnut street, had suddenly left for parts unknown leaving nis affairs in sucha mixed condition that it was almost impos- sible to estimate the amount of his supposed defal- cation. itis, however, generally supposed to range trom $160,000 to $200,000, Expert vookkeepers are hard at work trying to get things im order for a proper exainination, It appears that Mr, Cabot commenced business with Mr. Ettingo shortly belore the commencement of the war, They did mostly a commission business, while Mr. Cabot was president of the Allentown Rolling Mills. Mr, Cabot is a man about thirty-five or forty years of age, tall and slim, and of very pleasant manners. He is of good family. He ai- tended entirely to the financial aifairs of the firm, while his partner, who is a young man of about twenty-five or thirty, was thrown entirely in the background and acted as a kind of salesman, know- ing whatever nothing about the monetary condition of the house. For the last two weeks the latter has been enjoying hinself at Cape May, while Mr. Cabot, it 1s alleged, has been quietly preparing for his sudden departure that he made on last Saturday evening or Sunday morning after drawing all the funds out of the bank, &c. It is known that he Taised some $10,000 or $12,000 in ready money in this and other ways during the week. On Saturday afternoon Cabot telegraphed to Ettinge to come up to the city on Monday morning, as he desired to see him. ‘There was to be a meeting of the Board of Di- rectors of the Allentown Kolling Mill on that day. Mr. Ettinge obeyed the request, but instead of fud- ing his partnef found the following brief note:— Auge 15, 1968, DranErrrvor—tI find that ‘my booke’are In such a bad a . ¥ ae cy % CHARLES CABOT. This note and Mr. Cabot’s non-appearance caused much excitement among all parties interested, and an investigation of the books showed that they were truly ina “shocking condition.’’? As I said before, they were placed in the hands of experts, who, after two days’ work, have hardly yet commenced to see daylight. The previous secretary of the Rolling Mill Company was, 1t ts said, an unreliable and care- Jess man, and it was often a wonder to the stoc holders that Mr. Cabot retained him. There are various surmises as to the where- abouts of Mr. Cabot. At first some of his friends thought he had committed suicide, be- he was too “high strung” to live under such dishonor; but the subsequent disclosures showing how carefully and recentt, he had “feathered his nest’? dissipated all suc! fancy notions. It is thought by some that he has. left for South America, where he was at one time engaged im business. He is unmarried, and lived bse his father at his handsome mansion at German- own, Great sympathy is expressed for his partner, Mr, Eitinge, who is considered by all as entirely innocent of all connection with his partner's financial specu- ations. The iron compantes for which Cabot & Ettinge were agents say that this defalcation, although it Will harrass them to some extent, of course, Will not be likely to affect their solvency. Cabot & Ettinge were connected with the firm of John Cabot & Co., of New York. The latter have telegraphed on that they will be here with their books to-day. at Half a Million Dollars. PHILADELPHIA, August 20—5 P. M. The Board of Directors of the Allentown Rolling Mills have not yet got through with Cabot’s books. Up to to-night the defictency amouats to $140,000, Checks not placed on the books are still coming in, and some think the deficit will reach half a million dollars, The Allentown Rolling Mill has a capital of $500,000, besides which a considerable surplus has accumulated, John Cabot, of the firm of John Cabot & Co., of New York, was here to-day and showed by the books of that firm that they do not owe the Allentown Rolling Mills a thousand dollars. John Cabot seemed to think that everything could be explained, Itis not yet known how much is the ontstandihg debt of the rolling mills, and it is utterly impossible to know what are the liabilities ana assets outstand- ing, K oneck for $5,000 of Charles Cabot came in to- day, and it is believed that many more are afloat ol which there is mo account on the books. On the day of his disappearance Cabot negotiated some securities of the company, but deposited the proceeds, amounting to $5,000, in the bank to the credit of the company. Mr. Cabot’s personal and social position and family connections have been so high in Philadelphia that his defalcation and disap- pearance have excited much feeling in circles where he was widely kuown, aud deep sympathy is ex- pressed for those who are compelled to share the Inortification that follows the exposure of this unex- ed stale of affairs. We hear of no attempts to the fugitive, but his whereabouts will doubt- loss be ascertained in due time, WATI PLACE NOTES, Niagara Falls and the “diamond lakes” of New York have been thoroughly “done” by tourists this summer, The gorges of Seneca Lake, New York, said to form the grandest scenery in the world, have been visited by (thousands of pieasure seekers during the past two mouths, Territle waterfalls are the leading features of the principal gorge.

THE UNITED STATES AND MEXICO. Revelations—Views of General Grant, [Washington correspondence (August 18) Syracuse Journal.) Ittis und here that Rosecrans objeets strenuously to certain features of his instructions with regard to Mexican ailairs. The surmise is made that two poznts are adroitiy presented; one intended to hold the republican Juarez admnintstra- tion responsible for some of the Thurlow Weed- Clarence Seward speculations under the empire. There isan Imperial Express Company, & street railway system, railroad and telegran! contracts, &c,, in which the New York speculators were greatly interested. Another point is reported to look towards eiZorts for the cession of a portion of Northern Mextco, It will be remember that very soon after the surrender of the rebel armies General J. M, Scho- field, now Secretary of War, visited Europe, osten- sibly on leave of absence. He was gone nearly twelve months, and spent most of the time at the Austrian and French capitals. The General was accompanied by two aides-de-camp, which was to the more 00- serving regarded as evidence that his visit was not merely private, but had some semi-ofictal signitl- cance, military or otherwise. The truth is the Gen- eral was sent to Europe on & diplomatic mission, with @ view to induce the withdrawal of the foreign troops then sustaining Maximilian, They were with- drawn. This mission was suggested, urged and ar- ranged by General Grant, shortly after the following letter was written by him to the President:— GauENA, Ill, September 1, 1865, A.

This appears from recent Franco-Mexican papers now being prepared by a prominent French publicist, who was Max’s confidential correspondent in Paris, The Iatter a] wen in Mexico in the summer or fall of 1862. It is Known that he was a party to the scheme in 1861. ‘Three years before that would locate the plan's in- ception some time i 1859, GRANT AND ANDEASONVILLE. Remarkable Statement by Ex-Commissioner Ould. The Washington Intelligencer of yesterday pub- lishes a statement written by Mr. Robert Ould, who was the Confederate Commissioner for the exchange of prisoners during the war. We have not space to- day to publish the document in full, but the points of it may be gathered from the following extract from an editorial on the subject in the Jntelligencer, colored, of course, to suit the political views of that journal: It appears from this statement, sustained by Gen- eral Butler and other officers connected with the ex- change of prisoners duriug the war, that Grant (who cared so little for the Union soldier that he was will- ing to give three for one) is responsible for ail the suiferings of our soldiers—not only at Andersonville, but in all the other Southern prisons. It sppents that offers were repeatedly made by the Confederate authorities to exchange man for man and officer for officer at a time when the federal au- thorities had an excess of prisoners; that afterwards otfers were made to buy and pay for in gold the medicines necessary for the Union prisoners at the South and to allow them to be brought in and ad- ministered by our own surgeons, and that no notice was taken of these propositions. It appears further that the Confederate authorities offered to send hitner, without any exchange, fifteen thousand sick and wounded Union soldiers, inclad- ing all those at Andersonville, and to make up the number with well men, if the federal authorities would furnish transportation, but this transportation was not furnished for nearly six months, daring wnich nearly ail of the suffering of Union prisoners in Southera prisons occurred, . ‘The salient fact is that all this was the work of General Grant, who ordered the Commissioner of Ex- change “not to take another step by which another abie bodied man should be exchanged until further orders from him,” and afterwards gave directions that the matter of exchanges “should be put offen- sively to the Confederate authorities for the purpose of preventing an exchange.” ‘This is @ record from which Grant cannot escape. All the federal officers connected with the exchange of prisoners, including General Butler himself, are invoked as witnesses against him. It was a part of his policy, the same cruel policy which sacrificed the finest army in the world aud lost more men than constituted MeCleilan’s whole army in reaching a point which McClellan had attained with compara- tively no losses wiiatever. THE ACCIDENT TO SUN TAJEN.—The unfortunate accident to the maadarin, Sun Tajen, on Saturday, wus gracefully made the occasion of @ final visit to the Embassy by their Buffalo friends. ‘The visit, which was one of friendly inquiry a3 to the health of the distinguished foreigner, was Pere by Messrs. H. Vought, President of the Board of Trade, P. S, Marsh, ex-President of the Board, &c. ‘These gen- tiemen went to the Falls in the morning train and were warmly received at the International Hote! by the mandarin, who assured them that he had sus- tained no injury from the accident and that he cor- dtally appreciated the kindness which had prompted the visit. He also begged to be informed as to the name of the man to whom he owed his rescue, in order that suitable acknowledgment may be made to him.—Aufalo Courier, August 18. MARRIAGES AND DEATHS. Married.
