He further added, i conversation With the oilcers, pug bis finger on his neck, under his ear, on the spot where the noose of the rope is adjusted before execution, and then raising his hand upward and pointing to an imaginary gallows, “You thougnt to have hung me, but you Qe disappoimed.”” He further sald, “i am no more Msaue than the doctor who last examined me; my mind 13 as sound as his.” ‘These remarks were vuered In A DEFIANT TONE, as though for the purpuse of convincing the ofl- ciais tuat they, together with the doctors and the jury, bad alike been imposed upon. How well they Qyplied will appear more clearly to our readers Waen they ure informed that the day be- fore yesterday Chambers pretended not to know his own name upon being interro- waced by Mr. Kenreddve, the head keeper of the jal, and, further, when it 1s known that previously aud up to tae time O1 going to court he almost in- vuriaviy spoke 19 an uuder tone of voice, though suttering trom severe physical prostration Weli us mental derangement. she whole of yester- duy aliernvon tais cloak was entirely thrown off and Chambers was himself again. Nay, he was so sane as on reflection to consider the damaging ellcct whicu bis remarks might probably have on bis future prospects, and when asked way he made tiem he replied that he felt good at we tme, as was natural, and, besides, he did not want to be interrogated and gazed at by any oue, Whatever Chambers might Have been in the past, and however truthful the evi- dence coucerning some of his delusions, the verdict Ol acquittal bas restored him to perfect sanity. He heid a long conversation yesterday alternoon with a geutiewan, which was, to all intents and purposes, pertectiy rational, and he was as calm aud collected as the strongest minded man could be supposed to be under the circumstances, THAT SKULL BANDAGE. During the whoie of his incarceration in Raymond ‘street jail ne bas found it necessary to wear a cloth over his head; but direculy after the trial and on his way to tie prison he dropped the cloth as no longer eediul to keep up the delusion. He exultingly exclaimea to Sheriff Walter, on his return trom the trial, “I’m to go to Flush- ing. now'—expecting that he was to be gent to the Fiusbing Lunatic Asylum. In this he was mistaken, for he will go to the State Asyium at Utica. In the event he told the prison authorities they need not lock ‘up in the eeil, he was “all right now.” 1b is only fair to state that although this is now the conduct of Chambers it 18 quite consistent with a State Of mind at the time Of the shootiag, that rep- deiea him legully irresponsible, and the anomalous state of the jaw that enables murderers togo unpun- ished under such circumstances needs amendment, aud that right early, Most of the trout thus far caught in the streams of Peousyivauia fave been witt worm bait. ‘they don’t readily take tue fy beiore May.

M. Tt 18.8 sign of the times when reports and rumors ment and Wide fluctuations in values pass almost duiness is one of scepticism among the operators Who “most do congregate” in tae vicinity of the Stock Hxehange and Gotd Room. Had these latter individuals not been veterans in ube strategy of Wall Street they would havo betrayed very juventie sen- Sations when the street was flooded, as It was to- day, with rumors of a WAR WITH SPAIN. It was reported that the Cabinet was in important secret session, and that orders bad been issued to the navai depots to lay im stores and to naval oficers to report to their ships forduty. Before this time gold had declined to 11274 upon the lower rates for exchange and uvon higher quotations for five twenties in L.ondon—where the bank statement showed a loss of only £43,000 in specie during the past week. The Washington telegrams, however, raliled the price to 11344, which pomt was barely touched, as the sceptical and incredulous dealers m the Gold Room laughed at the news and sold gold tw afl who were willing to buy on tbe strength of the informauon, Afterwards the market decimed to 113 upon tne posting of the following announcement at the Sub-Treasury:— bd UNITED States Treasury, New York, April 21, 1870. } By @irection of the Secretary of tne ‘Treasury thts office will, on onday, Aprit 25, commence the pay- ment of the interest ialltag due May 1, 1570, without repate, CHARLES J. FOLGER, Assistant ‘Treasurer, This action of the government in prepaying the May interest was generally expected and seems to have been discounted, for the price rallied and closed atli3ys. The market left oi very duil, and both sides of the speculative contest proclaim It a drawn batue, It is supposed that the clique endeavoree to unload upon the Spanish war news, but as the price fell so rapxily to 113 the conjecture 1s probably only partially correct. ‘Tie market at the close to- night resumed its wonted duiness, showing that it 48 very dificult, in the present inactivity in financial ciretes, to inspire any ol the markets with life, ‘The chiet fluctuations of the day are shown in the table;— 1PM. + 13% Holders of gold paid from 134 to 534 per cent to have their balances carried over.

The reason why the fractional parts of a doliar are nov at par with a gold dollar 1s, thereiore, because the two half sliver dol ars of recent comages ure about seven percent short of a silver dollar or the Iractional part of a silver dollar coined before 18, and not oecause the supply in our market is greater {nan the supply of gold. Your argument ear the top of page fourteen of your second pamphiet has failed to convince ie, because Ue Cases, as Stated by you, are not anaia- gous. You there say:—"The allegavion that Lue issue and management of a national currency opens the door for fraud or party abuse applies with ex- actly the same force to the coinage and management of guld and silver currency.” You ignore the fact that the gold or stiver contained 1a @ coin 18 intringicaliy worth nearly as much as tie nominal value of the coin, and that the bullion for MS coinage must be bought at this high price, while payer money of the same nominal value has little intrinsic value, and can be produced in vast amounts @¢ very littie cost. The cases of the issuing of a gold and sliver currency and one of paper by the government therefore bear, in your illustration of the subject, very little, if any, ana- logy to each other. Butit you by your arguments have falled to convince tne banks of their ill-con- sidered course of conduct, you may succeed in con? yincing me and the great mass of our peopie as well that you are right ana I ne er the top of page 12 you say:—'‘*Ihen a national bank currency 1s better and safer than the old and fraudulent system whica 1t superseded, because it derives a certain amount of security from the government bonds de) he Comptroller of the Currency.” ready noticed your mistake in this in peaking of @ like statement in your first panrnes but at the risk of repeating what I said fore I would state that the bonds held in this office to secure the prompt payment and redemption | of the Circulating notes of the national banks are not held to pay such notes of a broken bank when presented for payment from thé avails of the sale of the bonds, but to idemnify the United States for re- deeming such notes, The notes must be redeemed by the United States Treasurer at once, whenever pean for payment, whether the security held for their redemption is sufficieat or not.
