The Commercial and Financial Chronicle, of New York, the highest authority on the subject, says, in its issue of last Saturday : Complaints are universal of the stagnation and tho unprofitableness of business. A spring season so depressed and generally unsatisfactory os tho present is hardly within the memory of our city merchants. Tho trade of the interior is generally reported dull and unpromising. Although tho South has realized upon a large portion of its cot? ton crop, it is found devoid ol' trading spirit, and even unable to liquidate much of its indebtedness on account of last years purchases. Lu the West? ern States merchants complain of unusual difficul? ty in making their collections, and have on hand a heavy balance of fall stock; the result being that their obligations to the Atlantic cities, in many casos, have to be renewed for thirty to sixty days. The New England cotton mills find the demand for goods so limited, compared with their produc? tion, that at the beginning of this month some or the man "facturera made a still further curtail? ment of their timo of running. The woollen trade, now one of our most extensive industries, although it recently diminished its aggregate production probably quite 20 per cent., finds little relief from che reduced supply of goods, and manufacturers bavo to sell a largo amount of their producta at a discount from cost. In the leather and iron trades similar complaints prevail;' and, indeed, it would be difficult to Und an important exception to tho common stagnation. The CJtronicte considers at length the causes producing this general and almost unprecedented listurbance and depression of business, and finds ts principal source in the unstatesmonlike and un? patriotic course of Congress. The conclusion is indoubtedly correct; and we are amazed that the powerful commercial classes of the North ar" so ilow in perceiving the fatal cons?quences to theni lelves of the present political die contents and un .ertainties^-and applying the proper remedy. Well nay the Chronicle sav, "The present. demoralized condition of the trade of the whole country appeals oudly to Congress for moderation and dispatch in he settlement of these momentous measures." ?Ve may add that it appeals os loudly to the busi less classes of the North to toke such steps os will >verawe Congress into something like common lense. Dan Rice on the Situation. DAN RICE, the celebrated showman, having re ;ently made a lour of the Southern States, gives lis opinions of some things he saw, in a letter to ho Washington Republican, thusly: The /-Freedmen's Bureau in South Carolina, mi? ler General Scott, is in good working order. The inly trouble experienced arises where ill-disposed ifficers have crept into positions, and where specu ators and claim agents of the old bounty-swindling irder have tampered with the freedmen. Thero is a set of traders in some districts who windle the poor negroes shamefully by selling hem bogus jewelry ?nd gewgaws at most exorbi ant prices. In some instances these persons write or the Northern papers, and r.?t it is for their int?r? ?t to have the South, dominated by a military force, hey will, of course, paint horrible pictures of the nbdued rebels. In one instance that came to my nowledge, a trader had sold a breastpin to a legro for $5 which was made in Waterbury, Con ecticnt, for sixteen cents, and this man was the orrespondent of the Chicago Tribune, a leading tadioai paper in the North. I am thoroughly con meed that Congress, while prompted to many acts y an honest indignation, is terribly misled by tat?mente of interested parties. The constant omplaint of the Southern people is, that they are^ ruellv misrepresented ; that while in their nun nd desolation they earnestly desire the ? restoxa ion of friendlv relations with tho . Government, key are accused most unjustly of numberless out? ages and wrongs. . - : MODKBH REPUBLICANISM.-A firm in Nashville, lie of the largest and most respectable mercantile ons es in the West, paying annually many thou and dollars of taxes, has, including clerks, six ergons employed in the concern, besides the por nr. who is ft TMgxo. Th? lattor now ia tba only ne of the whole concern who is allowed to vote nder the present Brownlow Constitution.. The oint of the joke-is that the negro was the bitter Bt rebel of all, and was an officer's servant in the ite rebel army, and, when fighting by bis master's ide, he was the third man over the ramparts of 'ort Pillow, where be fell like sn/avenging thun erbolt upon tue negroes, who so gaUsfctly sur endered that stronghold. The. above, which we; take from the New York Times, furnishes an illustration of the recent Act f the Tennessee Legislature on the subject of rsnchise. : _ THE "WESTERN WHEAT CBOP.-A writer in the it.'Louis Democrat makes some observations, on he coming wheat crop of St. Louis county, rhich, as the weather hus been similar, will pro ably apply throughout the West. He says : Wheat was sown throughout the country to a irger extent than in any previous year. La the i oiet and warm ground it germinated and sprout- ? 3 within four or five days, and continued grow- ' ig until the frosts of the latter part of November, hen it showed a robust stand, suchas has not i sen seen for many a fall. The thick.coat of snow : Uso grumbled at as a matter of course) now cov- i ring the ground, is another blessing. That snow loiters our wheat as under a universal hot-house, id a good one, too, keeping the plant alive, but at allowing its growth, which is its best possible ? mdition. .. ? State Items.

C FROM WASHINGTON. [Special Correspondence of xh- Baltimore Gazette] WASHINGTON, February 21-Last night Congress consummated their miscalled "reconstruction' Boheme, the features of which you have already given lo tho public. Its very titlo is a misnomer. It should havo boon called an Act to destroy rather than to rebuild. Its effect must be to separato not unite. As tho vulgar but oxpresBivo adage goes, "it is hard to extract blood from a turnip." ? But as infamous as the SHERMAN proposition, with the House amendments, is, I find some crumbs of I comfort in the measure and its surroundings as it passed, not the least, perhaps, of which is that its authors have overleaped themselves and may Sall j on tho other side. In the first placo, if the Southern people shall choose to accept the alternative of abiding under military rule until a chango of public sentiment shall have boen developed at the North, tho whole scheme falls to the ground-a monstrous abortion! Secondly, the Senate, by its unanimous Radical vote on the Sherman propositi on as it originally passed that body, solemnly declared in favor cf | the enfranchisement of every man implicated in the civil war on the Southern side, thus endorsing tho manly courso adopted by your Legislature, and pointedly condemning that shamelessly pursued by Tennessee and Missouri. Thirdly, tue diaboli? cal Blunders and falsehoods for the past two years heaped upon the South must now cease, since such blows wilPotherwiso fall upon the heads of Grant and his subordinates, who will hereafter be respon? sible for tho "disorders," the "outrages," the "wholesale murders" lyingly alleged to exist and to be committed thoro, and not on the heads of in? nocent peoplo of that section. Besides, the South has been accustomed to martial law-indeed the people there sot along for some time very well , without any government at all except that of the ' law, without any one to execute it, and'a more < orderly and law-abiding people even then never lived on the face of the earth. Ton will see that the Bill, with the amendmenis, finally passed by a strict party vote in both Houses, with a single exception. Very early this ] week I received an inkling of a probable wavering t in that quarter, and referred to the matter in my letter published on Wednesday. Mr. Johnson cer? tainly had the right to decide for himself what course ho should adopt in respect to this or any ] other political question, always being responsible, however, to the judgment of his constituents. But when he sees proper formally to assign the rea? sons which actuate him, he certainly opens the. door to criticism upon them. Now, tho reasons he 1 gave for tho vote in question are thought here, on all * all sides, to bo utterly unworthy of his great reputa? tion asa epecial pleader, to say nothing of their in sufficiency to justify his conduct. "I shall give it my vote," said he, "not because I approve of it in th ? ab- t strait or in the particular, but because I think I see in it a mode of rescuing the country from the , perilous predicament in which it is now placed." , How the country is to be rescued from its perilous | * predicament by visiting upon States already in the Union the iniquity proposed, he does not pre? tend to enlighten us. But even if he imagined, with or without inst cause, that it would have such a tendency, did that justify a patent viola? tion of the Constitution (declared so to be by | Mr. Johnson a hundred times), and inflicting upon i a whole people a monstrous wrong, acknowledged j so to bo in tho vory speech ho was molong? "If I had my own way," continues the Senator, " I would at once re?oive them (Southern repre ?sentatives) in this chamber, wini a heart full of J conviction that they would be true to their duty to the country, and that they would promote its permanent interest. But I have not my way. I am obliged, therefore, to acquiesce in the decision of the majority of Congress, however erroneous or unjust I may believe that decision to be, provided I ? believe that it will end in a comparatively short j. time in restoring the Southern States to the broth? erhood of States." This, it must be confessed, is carrying the maxim that "the end justifies the means" to its extreme limit. But surely, if he felt "obliged to acquiesce in the decision of the major? ity," there was no necessity at all for his voting with them, since his vote was of no importance ' J whatever either ono way or the other. If, onT the contrary, his vote had been decisive, imme? diately or prospectively, or could have had any conceivable-weight in passing the bill xand in thus, as he says -he believes, relieving the country from its" " perilous predica? ment," his speech might be accepted as a plausi? ble pretext for his vote (laying aside its morality). Nothing of this, however, is possible ; and we must conclude, therefore, that other and very dif? ferent reasons than those assigned influenced this extraordinary action on the Senator's part, and that its effect was designed to be felt in some ass em- | b bly other than that bf Congress. In brief terms, Mr. Johnson's vote, as such, was a mere nulity, and obviously ?mjufued inora aa tho utter ance of individual sentiment, designed to operate outside of the matter in hand, than as becoming or excusable ou - the occasion upon which it was cast. The doctrine that it is obligatory upon a legislator to vote with the ma? jority, on whatever ground, is convenient enough for such as desire to be always on the winning side. But it must be seen that it would not do to push it to its logical consequences, since it must inevitably annihilate minorities altogether. On the whole, it would seem that the only intelligible ground advanced by Mr. Johnson for his vote for the bill was his inveterate and newly affirmed op gosition to its provisions, general and particular, ?om the enacting clause to the last line ot the last section. Secretary Mcculloch will shortly issue a circula?! ' notifying the public that the department is nows j ready to receive and convert into five-twenty bonds the seven-thirty bonds issued nnrler the Act of August, 1364, and due next August, and also pay the interest due thereon. This is done in order that the bondemmay be received and converted daily, and not all he presented at the same time when due. The Tariff Bill cannot be taken np in the House until tho Tax Bill is disposed of, and it is extreme? ly doubtful if definite action can be had on it this session. Georgia Items.

THE BANKING HOUSE OE BBOWN k WHITMAN. There is no longer a hope the affairs of this estab? lishment are in a solvent condition. .The mystery attached to the conduct of Mr. Valentine Wildman, the junior member, can be explained in noway save that he decamped from New York with all the muds of the bank within his reach. His mode of operation, so far as ascertained, was to draw from tj the banking houses of New York city all the moneys .fe that remained in them to the credit of Brown & Wildman. This he had the ability to do readily in t view of his presence there as a partner in the in? terests of his house, and possessing the entire confidence of Mr. F. Brown, the senior partner in this city. How far his operations extend, it is impossible now to determine, or if they go be? yond the ruin of his own banking-house, and the loss thereby entailed upon its depositors. The confidence of parties in New York may have been abused, though it is yet to transpire if such is the case. A dispatch from that city states that 1' Wildman left on the 12th instant for Atlanta j Charleston and Augusta. A dispatch from this city to Charleston, asking for information in regard to him, is answered that nb one in that city bas any knowledge of his presence there. The presump- I tion, therefore, is that be has fled the fount and in doing so gave false information to thc pal, in New York, who telegraphed that he had left -for home.-AUa'Ala Intelligencer.

FORGERY.-Two rather bold and successful forge iea were perpetrated on the First National Bank, f this city, on Tuesday and Wednesday last, by a oung man who called himself -Shiers. From the facts as related to us yesterday, we aarn that Shiers came to thia city, a few weeks ago, rom Charleston, S. C., and has since his arrival topped at a private boarding-house on Front treet. While there he form po tho ?.oTn(..? I a gentleman from Fayetteville, Mr. J. W. Lan ashire, who, bo ascertained, had deposited fonds a the National Bank at this place. On Tuesday ist Shiers entered the store of a merchant on front street, and expressing fatigue, requested hat a boy in the store might take a check to the lank to be cashed. His request was complied nth, and a check for $50, signed by J. W. Lanca hire, was given by him to the boy, who presented t, at the Bank, where it was paid, unquestioned, nd the money handed over to Shiers. On tho | text day he attempted to play the same game, mt the Cashier of thc Bank retained the check, nd ' required to see Mr. Lancashire. Word was ent that he would eau, by Shiers, but the latter 3ft immediately, and tho search instituted by the Seers of the Bank was. without result. A de cription of his person, with a request to arrest im, was telegraphed to Gol elaboro, and other olnts, and on yesterday a reply was sent by the loyor of GcJdsboro that he had been arrested.' A rarrant was issued, and an ; officer: sent down to ring him up, and ho reached here-probably this lorning.-WUminglon Dispatch, v ? ?>? THE "INDIANS NOT TAXED."-Lt seems strange to s, when we have reached that degree of ci vdiza ion that we can teach' all mankind what to do, list this should be so; but the New Englanders rho go the West very shortly takeas much pleas re in shooting Indians, as in former days they id in holding slaves at the South. Lu this they how that they are like their fathers. In Massa husetts in 1694 the colony paid fifty pounds for vary Indian, great or small, that any tersen houid kill. This was the uniform policy, tu 1697 fly pounds were to be paid for the scalps of adult nd i ans, and "for every child of the said enemy, nder the age of ten years, that sholl bo by them lainj?he sum of ten pounds; and such party or arries shall also have and keep unto their own se all plunder and prisoners by them taken of the nemy. .- , . ' In the later laws, liberal premiums continued to e offered for the scalps of male Indians above the ge of twelve years, as well as "the benefit of all odian prisonerst being women and children under be age above said,'' subject only to the condition bat they should be ''transported out of the coun? ty.'"' This reads queerly to us; but we must remember battNew England then engaged largely in steal ig negroes in Africa to reduce them to slavery, nd deemed it a virtue to shoot Indians wherever hey could find them. Since these were the prac ices of our Christian fathers, whose memory we ener?te, we might be a little more .charitable in ur judgment upon others. [Newburyport L^fjass.) Herald.
