The Currency-Pr lee of (?old.
The Bichmond Times, of Saturday, dis?
coursing under this head, says that gold,
which declined to 144, when the general
verdict was that tho President's mcssago
meant peace, ?nd when it was believed
that the President's influence would bc
successfully exerted to secure the admis?
sion to Congress of th? members elect
from the States lately in rebellion, has
bounded back to 149$, in consequence of
the belligerent spirit manifested in Con?
gress, and the evident determination of
the majority of that body to exclude the
Southern States from representation. The
tone of Congress on the latter subject
may be gathered from the fact of the
adoption by both House? of Stevens'
resolution for the appointment of a joint
committee of fifteen to inquire into the
condition of tho Southern States, and
report whether they er any of thom are
entitled to bo represented in either House
of Congress, with leave to report at any
time, by bill or otherwise. Its belligerent
spirit is .-bown in the preamble and resolu?
tions introduced simultaneously in both
Houses, relative to the French occupation
and operations in Mexico. These resolu?
tions were almost identical, and were re?
ferred by each Honse to its Committee on
Foreign Relations. We give that introduc?
ed in the Senate by Mr. Wade:
" Whereas, in a letter of instructions
dated July 3, 1862, directed to General
Forey, commanding the French forces in
Mexico, the Emperor of the French in?
dicated his policy concerning the affairs
of this continent by declaring that it was
his intention to establish a monarchy in
Mexico, 'which would restore to the Latin
race on this side of the Atlantic all its
strength and prestige, guarantee security
to the French West India colonies and
those of Spain; secure tho interests and
establish tho influence of France in thc
centre of America, and prevent tho pooplo
of the United States from taking posses?
sion of tho Gulf of Mexico, from which
they would command the Antilles and
South America, and so become thc only
dispensers of the products of thc New
World."
"And irhn-cas, in pursuance of said
?>olicy, an attempt has been made to estab
ish a monarchy in Mexico, contrary to the
wishes of the people, and to support Maxi
millian in his usurpations by European
soldiery.
i: And whereas, among other acts con?
trary to the Mpirit of the age and humani?
ty, the so-called Emperor of Mexico, by a
decree and regulation dated September 5,
18G5, practically re-establishes slavery in
his dominions; and by a decree dated
October 3, 18G?, bas violated tho usages of
civilized warfare by denying to the Mexi?
can Republican troops the rights of belli?
gerents, and ordering their execution
wherever found, within twenty-four hours
.after capture:
" Be it therefore resolved, by the Se?ale
and Ilouse of Representatives of the United
I States, in Congress assembled:
j "1. That we contemplate tho present
j condition of affaira in the Republic of
I Mexico with the most profound solicitude.
t;,2. That the attempt to subject one of
the Republican Governments o? this con?
tinent by a foreign power, and to establish
on its ruin a monarchy sustained solely by
European bayonets, is opposed to the
declared policy of thc United States Go?
vernment, offensive to the people, and
contrary to the spirit of our institutions.
" 3. That the President of tho United
States bo requested to take such stops
concerning this grave matter, as will indi?
cate the recognized policy and protect the
honor and interest of our Government."
So long as the Union in kept in a disject?
ed condition by the radical majority, and
au early foreign war is a possible event,
not all the genius of the Secretary of thc
Treasury and all tho specie at his com?
mand, will keep down the price ot gc dd.
Export Tux.
Mr. Bingham's joint resolutions propos?
ing to amend the Constitution for the
purpose of authorizing an export tax on
cotton and other Southern products, will
be powerfully supported. The Philadel?
phia Press thinks that the Southern peo?
ple will not object to their tax. It says:
"The idea that any opposition to this
amendment of the Constitution should
com?- from the South is absurd, when we
recollect that in tho Constitution of the
so-called 'Confederate State* precisely
this privilege was reserved as a measure
of self-protection and self-defence. It
was, indeed, thc necessary preparation for
tho S< nth, had they succeeded in winning
their independence, for that system of
manufacturing, without which, according
to Governor Orr and other sensible au?
thorities, they are now so immeasurably
suffering." .
Undoubtedly the cotton States will op?
pose the measure. Thcv wish to supply
the world with cotton, and thereby re?
cover somo portion, at least, of the im?
mense wealth they formerly enjoyed.
BALTIMORE AND LIVERPOOL.- Baltimore
papers exult in the success of the ir -steam
line to Liverpool, tho pioneer ship Somer?
set having returned under favorable con
litions, and three cargoes of freight are
said to bo already waiting for thc next
?teamer.
Where Doti It Com? From!
Thc Richmond Times says that thc most
hopeful sign of returning prosperity which
has yet come under their notice is tho fact,
I heretofore noticed, that thc Lynchburg
commission merchants hare scarcely been
able to forward ?lithe cotton-that great
rival of gold -which has been consigned to
their care. Wo copy a second article from
the Republican on the same subject, confi?
dent that it will be pleasant reading to all
who think seriously as to whence the South
is to draw even money enough to pay her
taxes:
"This importan* product ol tho South
han been coming in by the Virginia aud
TonncRseo Railroad in such quantities that
it has blocked up all thc linea of transpor?
tation heretofore open to it. The Orange
and Alexandria Railroad has been its main
dependence, and such has bern thc de- ?
maud upon this road that it was found im- j
possible*to curry the cotton forward aa ru- j
pidlv as it came in. Shippers will be pleased
to learn that arrangements have bren
made by which tho South-side Railroad ?
can accommodate their shipments of cot- |
ton-thus opening another avenue to thc
Northern market. Ry this route, cotton is
taken from Lynchburg to City Tobit, and
there shipped on board of vessels to "North?
ern porte. Two boats-the Ella Scott and
the Pocahontas-went down to Robinson's
Mills, yesterday, with loads of cotton for
thc South-side Road. The bridges below
the city are being rapidly pushed forward,
and we aro glad to learn that it will not be
long before this important line will be free
from obstruction between Lynchburg and
Petersburg, and prepared to accommodate
any amount of freight or travel."
