Beeotypr saM '■ "J. suppose throughout your ranks there is not a man who has not been accustomecj to thipk and to read, and you all understand the necessity for the war. You may have said to yourselves, what are we going South to fight for ? Is this to be a prusade for pmancipatipu ? No, Wl- I hold that no man shall surpass me in detestation or slavery. I do not paean slaves, any slaves—man, woman, or child, black o« white or copper eolored. I hate the slavery of the needle, of the spade, and of the machine, and slavery on the planta* tion. 1 hate it everywhere. I love my fellow-men, and t believe all wen were born to be free; and therefore I believe in freedom as the birth right of every human creature. Yet I cannot look upon this army as going forth to emancipate.— Why ? Because fifteen States of the country have their institutions guaranteed to them by the Constitution of the United States. And we, you nor I, have any right to violate a single principle guaranteed to the South by that immortal Constitution which has been over the lapd for good so long. Therefore I say we cannot send an army on purpose to emancipate the slaves; but if in sending ap army forth to auell insurrection, emancipation comes with it, I say, that is their look out. [Applause,] If a big steamer goes up the East river, you take notice that she does not go up that river merely to make all the littlq lighters, sloops, fishing smacks, and cookboats dance about the wharves. No: if goes up on its pwn legitimate business, but it carries weight with it to make everything dance about on both sides of it.—: Therefore, I say, though we do not send an army forth to interfere witty their  tions; though we merely send forth an army to re-establish good government and to quell insurrection, and to put a conspit: acy more vile against the government than ever before existed, yet in doing so, if more besides be done, not originally aimed at or intended—if the slaves lie set free—; they must take that as part of their punishment in stirring up insurreotion and war in a peaceful oountry," CITY ADVBBTISBMENTS. BT REV. EDWARD C. J0XE8, A. If. The Mobile Register and Advertiser (recently united) of the 17th of June contains an article op financial transactions in the bogus confederacy, The following are the essential parts of the article: It happens occasionally in all commercial communities that a period of embarrassment and difficulty arises which spreads a gloom on all itl operations, and makes the most energetic pause till they can see some light by which the darkness may be dissipated and enoouragement given to the prosecution of their legitimate enterprises.— Such is the present position of the merchants and mechanics of Mobile. This experience of real life is from correspondent in Illinois, and is as good as anything we have recently read; Your correspondent has an intimate friend, Joe , who was until recently cashier of Bank, in the good old State of Tennessee. Now to say that Joe was handsome, accomplished, and \vitty all very entertaining, would be but to express the odinion entertained of him by nineteenrtwontieths of the fair sex with whom he came in contact. He was; to use a Western expression, "j» regular heart smasher among the women," a..d it may not be igtprqper to state, just here, that no one had a more exalted opinion of his capabilities in that line than the aforesaid Joe himself.

The payment by the confederacy for all work done for the government is in treasury notes and in the notea of the interior banks, the first of which aro sold at seven per cent, discount, and the latter at twelve to fifteen per cent., as they are not received at our banks, and consequently are refuted by the mechanics and tradespeople. This, in oonneotion with the refusal of the banks here to put out their own notes on any securities which can be offered, has so embarrassed tho whole community, that a settled gloom rests upon all its operations,and no one seems to know what course to pursue. The Treasury Department of the confederacy may very properly desire, under no circumstances, to receive or pay out any other than the constitutional currency of country, which can never be less than gold and silver, or bills which are qf specio paying banks, and yet, while they have #180,- 000 in coin in the Bank of Mobile and the Southern Bank of this oify, they are refusing to pay those who have made contracts with them for specie currency in anything but their treasury notes, which cannot be converted into money or in the paper Qf the banks of the interior, while they are at the same time demanding from the suspended banks that they shall pay coin or its equivalent for all their notes whioh in any way may come into the treasury. Now, whether this state of things has been brought upon us by the policy or necessities of the Treasury Department, the fact is that all qre embarrassed by the tact that wc have upon us two kinds of cqrrejj: cy—one of specie paying banks, which are constantly decreasing in their amount by the payment of coin, and entire withdrawal from circulation, while the other currency, qf suspended banks and Treasury notes, is fast increasing upon us, and is at present unavailable for the payment of any of the necessary purchases of the mechanic and laborer, and subiects all that take it to heavy loss, while those who buy even at ten and fifteen per cent, find no way of disposing of it to advantage. Tho planters, who might, perhaps, assist in its circulation in the country, require that any balances due them by the rafctors shall be remitted them in gold or silver cqin, which they will hoard up until the end of the \yar, or until such time as they shall be able, hy tl,o use of if, to purchase (legroes at such diminished prices as will induce them to part with it. It is said that in this way some three to four millions of specie Ijayp beep drawn from oqr citv banks, and may be said buried till it can be used at a time when the necessities of the people arc ripe for large sacrifices of their property to obtain if. Uranus, IMTORTER OF cctiius, 6ins, K-r As ho and you correspondent were on the most intimate terms imaginable $nfl accustomed, in the "halcyon days of boyhood," to unfold to each other all our plans and purposes of the future—not even omitting the delicate matter of the heart — I was not at all surprised, about a year since, to receive a letter from him, in which, after referring to our past friendship and the confidence witty which he had always consulted me op any important subject, he assured me that he now needed my advice on a matter which nearly concerned himself, and in which, perhaps, was involved his tyappiness and destiny. I, of course, felt concerned for ray friend at this, but was somewhat relieved after reading the following: MINNESOTA! LB SUEUR, No. 191 West Street, 1 door above puon* St„ NEW-YORK. March 7, 1861.

"Aud now, dear 8 , without giving you time to imagine anything very horrible, I will frankly tell you I am in love.— Perhaps you will say, 'Wall, if you are ? that is nothing new.' But just wait until 1 get through. You see if it was a common love scrape, such as we used to have when we were bpys, I could get along with it well enough. But this time it is a little complicated—a kind of double affair. Come now, 8 , don't think that I am a fool, but the fact is, Fanny L is the prettiest little creature in the world.— Young, beautiful and affectionate, she is everything that J can ask; and in short, I love her 1 'qever loved before ! But tljen, al«s! she ja poor. Poverty is her misfortune. Were I tl\is would not weigh a feather, but then you know I am not. The other, Mary W . is beautiful, gay, accomplished and wealthy. The former I love, the latter I esteem and admire. I think I may say, without being liable to the charge of viinity, that neither of tjjeii} arc indifferent toward me, but that an offer of marriage on my pqrt would be accepted by either. Now, S- , what shall I do ? Marry tho girl I really lovo, and remain a poor devil all my days; or, by forming q|i qlliaqpe with the other, at obcc acquire wealth an4 position ?" I did answer him. In my letter—with, pardon me, I do not mean to copy here—I expatiated largely upon the blessings of "wedded life," "connubial bliss," "loving hearts," and all the other "sugar and honey" expressions I could remember; and closed by conjuring hitp, as he valued hif happiness, by all means to tuatcy the one he loved; and aa fur the beautiful, accomplished and wealthy Mary W =•, I would come in due time to marry her myself. 1 hoard nothing more from my love-perplex cd friend for jiboi|t mouths, when hC yrQte me as follows : With book of God, with book of prayer, Best! pennon of the free !

"The notoriety of the letters at last became so great that a search was made for the author, and when it became known that a mere lipqtenpnt had had the audaoity to originate and advocate these reforms, the jealousy of the officials manifested itself by the imprisonment of the lie|)tenaqt ai)d ttyq withdrawal of his commission.

"A few years later, Herr Siegel, (not then even lieutenant) the revolution having broken out, was a general in the army, of the revolutionists, and proved his right to that title in several minor oonfliots, qntil, at the battle of Hemsbach, he showed himself far superior to General Mieroslawsky, who was in command; and had he been the commander instead of a subordinate, the battle would, without doubt, have resulted in the victory of the revolutionists. After the close of the revolution General Siegel, who was made a refugee by th« treachery of the government, fled to England, and afterwards oame to the United States, as before stated. At twenty-eight he was a general; now he is afeont forty ypars of age, and is a colonel."

STEAM BAKERY, The TnaEE Months' Volunteers.— Within a few weeks it is estimated that eighty thousand volunteers will be discharged from the service, their terras of enlistment (threo months) having expired.— This force will comprise nearly all who rushed froni the loyal States to the defence or the national capital and Fortress Monroe, while these points jyppe in momeqtyry danger of an attack; also, most of the garrisons at Baltimore and Annapolis, and £ large number of Patterson's corps, who compelled the enemy to eyacuaty Harper's Ferry. Beyond the mountains they alsq comprise 9 of McClellan's division in western Virginia, Prentiss' at Cairo, an(J Lyon's in Missouri. Looking at what they have done, whether by way of prevention or cure, the country can only say of them. "Well done, good 'and faithful servant#!'' Within that short period they have saved the city of Washington from attack and capture—an event that would probably hwq drawn after if the speedy recognition of th« southern confederacy iif Europe, and at th? same time materially disheartened tfjq loyalists in their efforts at putting down thq rebellion. They have tranquahzed Matyr land, yarded off danger at Harper's Ferry, driven out the iusijrgepts from  Virginia, Kept Kentucky from  apd completely crushed it out in Missouri. The regions thus saved or reconquered ar$ equal in extent to a first class European State. This is pretty good work for  i than ninety day^. Cor. Lackawanna & Washington Avenues, "Poor fellow !
