s in paper, and none is borrowed for less than six per cent. If the present war continue, the public debt of the United States will, in the next two hundred and twelve days, dating from the first of September just passed and ending on the first of May next — when active campaigning commences — have been increased by the addition of $477,000,000. The campaign will then commence with a debt upon the shoulders of the United States of, in round numbers, $2,500,000, 000, and an interest of $113,e public debt of the United States should properly be added the public debts of the several States still denominated loyal, which amounts to $200,000,000, and, at an average of 6½ per cent., yields a further sum of $18,000,000; so that, on the first of May next, the entire interest will exceed that of Great Britain by $10,000,000. Besides the money raised in this way, the United States have laid the heaviest taxes of which there is any account; and so far from appropriating any of the money

dispatch to Mr. A. Dudley Mann, Confederate agent at Brussels, undertakes to enlighten them by an analysis of the Yankee financial condition derived from the statements of their own Treasury Department. It is remarkably clear, comprehensive and pointed, and, if translated into German and widely circulated, cannot, we should think, fail to startle the Teutonic race. It appears from the statements of the United States Treasury Department that the interest on the public debt, on the 30th of September last, was $81,778,648, exceeding by rather more than five millions the whole revenue of the United States in 1860, when they were all in the Union. That revenue at that time was but $76,752,088. The tables of the United States Treasury Department show that this debt is at this moment increasing at the rate of $2,215,000 per diem, having attained that rate from $1,962,000 per diem in the course of two hundred days, and that the rate of increase in still advancing, the whole increase ha

the fight at Cedar creek have arrived at Martinsburg, and, according to Stanton's bulletin, fifteen hundred prisoners! The same dignified and truthful document announces that "General Custer arrived at Washington this afternoon with ten rebel battle-flags displayed from the railroad engine. The following is Sheridan's last official dispatch, which the reader will do well to remember comes from a General that has just fallen back behind Cedar creek for safety: Cedar creek, Virginia, October 21--4 P. M. Lieutenant-General U. S. Grant, City Point: I pursued the routed forces of the enemy nearly to Mount Jackson, which point he reached during the night of the 19th and 20th without an organized regiment of his army. From the accounts of our prisoners who have escaped, and citizens, the rout was complete. About two thousand of the enemy broke and made their way down through the mountain on the left. For ten miles on the line of retreat, the road and country were cove

alled out, and are now guarding the jail. Hon. J. J. Abbott, R. Laflamme, and Hon. J. H. Cameron have been retained as counsel for the rebels, and Mr. Devlin for the Federal authorities. Lieutenant Bennett H. Young, commanding the raiders, has sent to the Evening Telegraph a letter, in which he charges the citizens of Vermont with violating English and Canadian laws. Abraham Lincoln upon the recent protest of the Tennessee electors. Lincoln, under date of "Executive Mansion, October 22," sends to the Chronicle the protest and accompanying papers lard before him by the Tennessee electors, whom he treated so roughly. These papers are: First, the protest against Andy Johnson's proclamation taking entire charge of the polls; second, a copy of Johnson's proclamation; and lastly, extracts from the laws of Tennessee showing the rights!! of voters in that State. The petitioners who come before Abraham in this instance are the McClellan electors appointed by the "loyal Democrat

rrived to-day by flag of truce from Richmond. One of them — a gentleman of the Teutonic persuasion — gave me his opinion on the result of that expedition in a somewhat laconic style: "We gets not mooch salt dere," said he, "but we gets peppered like der tuyfel." Miscellaneous. A. J. Shackelford and George W. Booth, of Charlottesville, Virginia, arrived in Washington on Saturday as "refugees." Wendell Phillips is announced to speak at Cooper Institute on Wednesday evening, October 26th, on the Presidential election. It will be his first and only address in New York during the Presidential campaign. The Republican procession in Washington on Saturday night burnt the McClellan flag hanging from the Democratic Club-House. Rev. Mr. Bitting, and Messrs. Foster and Peyton, of Alexandria, who have been put on the trains on the Manassas road, have been released, and Messrs. Maddox, Metcalf and Murray, of Salem, and J. H.

so to continue. The hostile armies have so strongly entrenched themselves and fortified their positions that it would seem sheer madness for either to attack the other in front. The amount of felled timber cheraur de frise, stumps, ditches and embankments, that either would have to travel over in making an assault, appears sufficient to make it an absolutely hopeless undertaking. It has been the common belief that Grant, whether Butler's canal were finished or not, would, before the 4th of November, attempt something as a card for Lincoln's re-election; but it strikes us now that he will rather be content to rest Lincoln's chances on Sheridan's successes in the Valley than run the risk of spoiling the game by an unsuccessful move on the Richmond lines. This, however, is mere speculation. There stand the hostile armies, in some places five hundred, in others not one hundred, yards apart. They may remain in their respective positions all winter, (Grant having fought it out on thi
