It is important! to bear this in mind in estimating the eflect of the act of the last session upon funding treasury notes. The loans in which7 such notes are funded are those mentioned in the schedule as loans of May 16th a 1 i August 19tb.

The amount of these loans, as reported at the last meet leg ol Congres3, was on 1st $41,577,250. By the statement now reported, the total a-: mount of these bond is. $73,999 ,400 8,000,000 From-which should be deduoted amount on hand not yet disposed of, say. $65,999,400 And, in order to ascertain the amount of Treas ury notes funded, there must be deducted for the bonds isaued tor produce, say 158.999.400 Dedact amouat reported 1st August. $17,422,150 This balance shows tbe amount of Treasury notes funded in months, tha average being about three and a half million per month.

imtkbkst bkakino tbeasust jtotks. rLnrinc the same neriod. the interest bearin? Treas ury notes have increased from $22,7991900 to 000l Increase $97,680,100 from which deduct notes on hand $11,904,600. Heal increase $85,775,500. This large increase of interest bearing notes affords satisfactory evidence that the issue of them was a judicious increase, and for any ordinary war the bond and interest notes, amounting together to a monthly sale 0f 20 millions would have sustained the Government without apy resort to paper currency.

But the estimates call for more than twice the amounts furnished by these resources, and we are compelled to resort to Treasury notes to supply the The Platform ol Lincoln's Administration The New Abolition PronnncUmento, The speech of Mr. Thadpeto Stevens in the Uni ted States Congress has created a new sensation at the North. The New York World thus reviews his position Mr. Thaddeus Stevens, of Pennsylvania, the real leader of his party in the House of Representatives, haa at last rendered tbe country the only -service which the country could have expected at his hands.) lie ba3 unmasked the new policy of the Administration, and the issue between radicalism at Washington and coqserva-' tism throughout the country has now been officially made. 1 he radical organs in tbe press have for, some time past been throwing fo th intimations of this issue The slightest expression of reverence for the Constitu tion has long acted upon them as holy water is reputed to act upon tne jrrince 01 uaraness.

air. oievena now avows, oa the floor of Congress, the Bettled policy at Lwhich these anti-pathetic contortions have long been hinting, i The Chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means deliberately recognizes the. Confederate States as a foreign belligerent power, which has lost all its past relations with the Union, over which the guarantees of the Constitution no longer extend, and which is to be made war upon and subjugated or made peace with, substantially as if it were a desirable portion of the Mexican territory, or an attractive province of Canada. Of course this position, if it be the position of Mr. Lincoln's government, must profoundly affect the relations of foreign powers to the American question.

It is a virtual abdication of all the grounds which the government haa heretofore taken in its diplomatic cor respondence. It asks Europe not to stand by in silence and await the restoration of a violated compact, but to watch the progress ot tne arms 01 tne nion a war of conquest and domination. i But we forbear at present to comment fully uppn thj natural consequences of such a change of front at this upon the opinion, and inevitably, therefore, upon the action of the world at large in respect to our internal, dissensions. The domestic aspects of the radical ptonunciamenta more immediately demand our attention. It invites tuj directly to coi.

template a war for the Union without the Constitution. This is not the war which the Amercan people have undertaken. It is not the 'war for which they baVe poured out blood aod treasure like water it is not the war" to which-1 their hearts and hopes are this day pledged.

The building of a railroad towards King George and a corduroy road accrqes a swamp protecting the same by a strong redoubt, would indicate that the movement on the Kappahanock was designed to be made in earnest, wbuei the orjerations in North Carol! na, were designed as a. feint to draw troops from Gen.

Whether the Rappahannock is the teal and North flflrn'iria thA fpinL. or North Carolina the real and the Rappahacock the Jeint, can only be determined fully by gubsequent movementi of the enemy. whatever may be his purpose, or wherever he may direct his for- whether against Gen.

The Montauk left Fortress Monroe on tbe 2d inst, about three P. in tow of the gunboat James Adger. The sea was smooth and weather calm. On Saturday, the 3d, about eight A. the hawser parted, and she was left adrift.

She went safely through one of the moat terrific gales recently experienced eff Hatteras. An officer of the vessel, writing to a friend here, says that the superstitions of tbe sailors and of some of tbe officers was one of the greatest difficulties to be overcome. Several of them gave op all for lost at every dasbj of tbe sea, and tbe deck being almost constantly immersed, the appearance of things in a measure justified their fears. Professional men, how ever, are highly pleased swith the sea-going qualities of the new Monitors, and see nothing- to be improved up on save a further strengthening of tbe sections.
