This assurance is re¬ garded with the liveliest satisfaction; and the various methods which have been proposed for calling in our super¬ fluous paper money are everywhere canvassed with a warmth and earnestness which shew that the public mind is alive to the delicacy of the work of contraction and to the mischiefs which will ensue if it be unwisely done. We have now arrived, therefore, at a critical point in the history of our paper money inflation, and it may be of use to glance back at the Course of legislation in reference to it. After the suspension of specie payments by the banks in this State, and throughout the country, at the close of 1861, it became evident that an issue of some sort of government paper money was inevitable, and a few enthusiasts urged this paper money was an exhaustless mine of [wealth, that any amount of it might be issued without that and depreciation. $ljc (HfjrotticU.

But it is well known that perturbations in the price of gold arise in some degree from the foreign exchanges. The changes from this cause are not, however, very large except in certain great political or financial crises when public con¬ fidence and public credit are prostrated. In such cases too speculation comes in and exaggerates the evil. And on this account the speculators have often been accused among us of depreciating the currency, when really it was the price of gold itself that was temporarily raised, and the only per¬ sons responsible for depreciating the currency were those who had authorized and necessitated its issue in excess. It is for the controlling of these minor anomalous fluctua¬ tions in gold that the Treasury manipulations of the gold market are attempted to be justified. In calculating the fu¬ ture movements in gold then we may eliminate these unknown factors from calculations. our And the conclusion which at present we seem to be conducted is that should gradually decline, and that to gold prudent merchants in making up their books for the end of the year will resolutely .mark down their stocks, and prepare for the inevitable fall in general prices. THE AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITUTION RATIFIED. On Monday evening last the Secretary of State made the official announcement required by that the law proposed States, provid¬ ing that “ neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except for the punishment of crime of which the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction,” etc., had been rati¬ fied by the Legislatures of three fourths of the States, twentyseven in the said amendment has number, and that therefore become a part of the Constitution of the United States. This measure, the sequel of the recent war, concludes the first volume of our national history. The institution foisted upon this country in the time of colonial dependence, has amendment to the Constitution of the United now the been denationalized and illegitimatized by the action of people of the United States through their Legislatures; and the country sets out upon a new career. Its first steps, a child, will be attended with stumbling and hesitation; for the organization of a social system to which a people has not been accustomed, is always accompanied with like those of embarrassment and difficulty. versatile character of our brief time, Southern commonwealths will find the new system of labor to be infinitely more profitable than the one our which has been supplanted. change to the nation will, we are per¬ suaded, be incalculable.

Every incentive, .therefore, will arise to make it as effective and valuable as possible. Idleness will be found ing, while through energy and activity every necessity can supplied. Nor will the laborer long remain unskilled. Free labor, without accompanying intelligence is almost a para¬ dox : the ignorant man and the inexperienced are necessarily at the mercy of those better endowed than themselves. It is knowledge and scientific skill which make labor effective; be freedom has the great well as to advantage that it affords the motive as opportunity to acquire the knowledge and talent the which gives the workman his proper superiority everywhere. some degree, certainly, this must be the case with the class lately enfranchised. Hence emancipation must tend to a large increase of the productive power of the country. The millions of black population constituting the laboring class at the South lacked the usual incentive to exertion, and, therefore, ac¬ complished comparatively little. Under the stimulus of adequate compensation, the promptings of sharp necessity and of competition, they must soon become more industri¬ ous, self-reliant, and intelligent. They will naturally find many additions to their wants, and will desire luxuries To which their own exertions must supply. In this way expend¬ ing amounts many times exceeding the usual outlay made for them while in slavery, they will largely increase the de¬ mand for manufactured goods, as well as for the labor necessary to accumulate the means to pay for them. We be¬ lieve, therefore, that they will do-more work, and enhance the value of labor in other departments of industry. But we would not have the Southern States depend solely or even principally upon their colored population for their productive labor. The great body of the white population, . need to be become employed as much as the negroes; and must also proficient in the various departments of skillful in¬ dustry. As soon as it becomes respectable as well as neces¬ sary to work they will not hold off from engaging in lucra¬ tive employments. With this change in their ideas and habits will come also a corresponding alteration in their mode of living. Comfortable clothing and commodious houses will be regarded as important auxiliaries of domestic life. In this way the effective industrial force, and productive power of the Southern States will be enhanced, and with it the material prosperity of the entire nation. The development of the resources of the South will, also attract emigration. The experience of Europe during the war But the elastic temper and population will enable them showed speedily to surmount petty obstacles; and such is the exhib¬ iting effect of freedom that we have little doubt that after a 803 how difficult it has been to obtain elsewhere the neces¬ supply of cotton.

It is shown by the report of the secretary pro tem. that the pro¬ duct of the blast furnaces ia 1864 was 1,149,913 net tuns. Of this 684,319 tuns were anthracite pigs, 210,108 of raw coal make, and the balance of charcoal make. The product of Pennsylvania and Ohio exceeded one million tuns. In 1856, the whole number of charcoal furnaces in the United States was 156. The product of new iron for 1864 was 974,876 tuns. The amount of pig iron, scrap iron, etc., worked up in 1864 was 1,400,000 tuns. It is evident that this important interest is to largely developed here in the next few years, and it is the duty of the Government to extend to it every encouragement. In 1849 there were 79 chare al furnaces in Pennsylvania east of the mountains, which produced in that year 65,617.tuns. By the year 1860 32 of these had finally ceased operations. To the remaining 47 at least 7 new furnaces had been added ; the production in that year was 36,576 tuns. In 1864, 42,953 tuns were made. West of the Alleghany Mountains in Pennsylvania, there has been, since 1849, a very marked and rapid decrease in the production of charcoal iron. This region, in 1849, produced 65,494 tuns of charcoal iron, 86 furna¬ ces being in operation. In 1864 9 furnaces only were in blast, pro¬ This remarkable decrease in the quantity of ducing 8,701 tuns. charcoal iron made in Pennsylvania can be ascribed to the operations about be of several agencies. 1. One that has been the absorp¬ active for a number of years, viz., tion of wood for agricultural purposes. 2. One of recent introduction, viz., the great demand and consequent high price of labor, resulting from the discovery of vast quantties of petroleum in the valleys of the Alleghany and its tributaries. 3.

COMMERCIAL imports from foreign ports of a few leading articles for the for the same time last year, have week and since Jan. 1,1865, and been as follows: EPITOME. For the Friday Night, Dec. 22. With the approach of the New Year holidays, trade usually as¬ quiet aspect, and is therefore deprived of any feature of importance that it might otherwise present. The fear of con¬ traction has ceased to deter buyers, or to precipitate sales; and, on the whole, the tone of trade may be regarded as considerably improved ; for it is evident that but for the unwillingness to incur bosh obligations at this peculiar season, speculative put chases, to some extent, would take place. Cotton has been buoyant and active. BreadstutTi have in some particulars improved, but buyers, before taking hold freely, will wait the effect of u large amount of speculative bills maturing in January. Groceries having declined very materially from the highest point of the past season, have shown some recovery from the lowest fig¬ ures early in the week. Trade, however, is still on a moderate sumes a most scale. ■ [December 23,1865. j Metals have been irregular.
