We find in the New York Journal of Com
merce the following account of the battle of San
Jacinto, and republish it, not because we believe
it correct, but on account of the interest which is
felt in every thing said upon the subject. We do
not believe that Gen. Houston had a reserve of
600 men, near enough to the scene of action to
have come to his relief in case of repulse, j'licre
ate several other statements manifestly errone
ous—
From a Correspondent in Mississippi.
I BATTLE OF SAN JACINTO.
The true account of the battle of San Jacinto,
and the exquisitely conducted system ofstratc
gicks by which Santa Anna was brought to ac
tion just at that place and point of lime, is yet
unwritten. A mutual friend holds Houston’s
promise to have one from his own pen, which I
shall not fail to transmit to you by the new ex
press mail, which, by the way, looks a little like
your old “ black poney.”
I have a few authentic particulars which I
have never seen in print. Houston had, in fact,
a corps tie reserve of six hundred men, so that had
ho failed at the moment, of forcing the Mexican
intrenchments, the final result could not have
been widely different. Gen. Houston’s rations
for two days preceding the battle had been but a
single oar o corn, and his health was bad, he
had refrained from eating that; so that he had the
two days’ rations of a Major General in the Tex- ,
ian army in his pocket during toe engagement,
and showed it to some Spanish officers after it
was over.
When every filing was ready for the battle, the
Texians being drawn up under the shelter of one
of those patches of wood that float like islands
in the midst of the vast prairies, while the Mexi
cans wore intrenched but live hundred yards dis
tant in tho open plain, the Texian band of music
played, byway of callenge to the Mexicans, the
air “Oh come to the bower I have shaded for
you!” But it was no come! Houston then
mounted on a largo elegant black horse, rode a
long the lino with tho air of one who had already
conquered, and encouraged his men in his low,
deep, and peculiarly calm lone of voice, saying,
“ boys, the day is our own !” He then rode fifty
yards in front and gave the word to come on.
The music struck the favorite, “Yankee Doodle,”
and Houston’s force stopped »ut in a single line,
the men standing about four feet apart. Imagine
a cool, intrepid body of six hundred, stepping out
of the shadows of the oaken copse, wary & hillhc
in their movements ns tho panthers ere they
spring upon their prey. At every flash of the
Mexican artillery Houston’s entire lino would bo
seen prostrate on the ground until the copper
hail storm had passed over, when they would
rise to their feet and advance again. Every Tex
ian, at his first lire, singled out his man, and
three hundred Mexicans fell dead; tho second fne
brought down three hundred more. Then soun
ded the fearful cry, uttered in dreadful and al
most unearthly tones of voice, Remember the
AlamoM which was soon feebly answered by tho
imploring and deploring and deprecating cry of
“Me no Alamo ! me no Alamo 1” During the
whole of the battle the Mexican officers behaved
in a dastardly manner, standing behind their sol
diers, urging them on, while they wore the lirsl
to fly. There were exceptions —the bravo com
mandant of the Mexican artillery was shot down
at his post, and his body fell across a cannon.
It is rather remarkable that Gen. Houston bad
often visited the battle field before it was crim
soned with blood, and had often expressed his
wish to purchase the lovely spot for bis residence.
r Tuo battle raised the price of the land so much
that portions of the battle field have sold Within
a few weeks for twent dollars per acre.
With regard to the fertility of Texas lands I
will only slate what I have on the highest authori
ty as a tact. On the Colorado, on some planta
tions desolated by war, so that neither plough,
nor spade, nor hoe, has been used upon them for
the last 13 months, cotton has been gathered
within the last month, which took seed trom the
droppings of last year’s crop, and has turned out
from 1600 to 3000 pounds ti.the acre. On culti
vated plantations on the Cancy 4100 have been
gathered to the acre. You arc probably aware
that next to the Sea Island the Texas cotton
bears the highest price in market.

MEXICAN ANECDOTE.
The following is extracted from a work of con
siderable interest, which has just been published,
entitled The Rambler in Mexico, by Charles
Jos. Latrobe; —
In an Indian village, far to the norrh, say the
Indians, there lived in the old Spanish times a
padre, a man of simple and retired habits; who
laboured to convert, and maintain the inhabitants
in the Catholic faith.
He was beloved by the simple tribes among
whom ho was domesticated, and they did not fail
to prove their good will by frequent presents of
such ttifles as they found were agreeable to him.
They say that he was a great writer; and occa
sionally received from the Indians of his parish a
small quantity of finely colored dust, which he
made use of to dry his sermons and letters.—
Knowing how much the padre loved writing, they
seldom returned from the mountains without
bringing him some. It happened that once upon
a time, he had occasion to write to a friend of his
living in tho capital; who was a jeweller, and did
not fail to use his sand box. In returning an
answer, his knowing friend, to his great surprise,
bantered him with his great riches, seeing that
$ he dried the very ink on his paper with gold dust!
This opened the simple padre’s eyes. He sent
for his Indian friends, and without divulging his
newly acquired knowledge, begged them to gel
him more of the fine bright sand. I hey, nothing
doubting did so. The demon of avarice began
to whisper into the old man s ear, and warm the
blood of his heart. He begged for more and re
ceived it —and then more dll they had furnish
ed him with several pounds weight. All entrea
i ty that they would show him the locality where
f this bright dust wasgathe red, was resisted with
' calmness and steadiness for a long lime. Al
ternate cajoling and rnenance were employed
with equally as bad success. At length, wearied
out, they said that as they l ived him, and saw he
was disturbed in his mind they would yield to his
desire and show him the spot, on the condition
that be submitted to be led to and from the place
blindfold. To this he greedily consented, and
i was in course of lime taken upon their shoulders
and carried, whither he knew not, by many de
vious ways up and down mountains and bar
ranca, for many hours into the recesses of the
cordillera, and there, in a cave through which a
stream issued from the breast of the mountain,
they set him down and bound him. They there
showed him quantities of the gold dust intermin
gled with large lumps of virgin ore, while their
spokesman addressed him, saying: ‘Father, we
have brought you here at your urgent request,
because we loved you ; take now what you want
to carry away with you—let it bo as much as you
can carry, for here you must never hope to come
again; you will never persuade us more !’ The
padre seemingly acquiesced, and after disposing
as much of the precious metal about his person
as he could contrive to carry, he submitted to be
blindfolded, and was again taken in the arms of
the Indians to bo transported home. The tradi
tion goes on to relate how the good cure, upon
whom 'he cursed lust of gold had now seized
thought to outwit his conductors by untying his
rosary and occasionally dropping a bead on the
earth.
1 If he flattered himself that any hope existed of I
his being thus able to tread the blind maze though
which he passed, and find the locality, one may I
imagine his chagrin, when once more arrived and i
, sct l,invll at his own door, the first sight which
, met hls uncovered eyes was the contented lace of
, one of his Indian guides, and an outstretched
r hand, containing in its hollow tho greater part of
the grains of his rosary; while the guileless
tongue of the finder expressed his simple joy at
. having been enable to restore such a sacred trea
t sure to tho discomlitted padre.
Eiltreatics and tlneats were now employed in
vain. Gentle as the Indians were, they were not
; to be bent. Government was apprised of the cir
cum stances, and commissioners were sent down
• to investigate the affair. The principle inhabit
ants were seized, and menace being powerless,
torture, that last argument of the tyrant, was re
sorted to, but not a word could bo wrung from
them! Many were put to death; still their breth
ren remained mute; the village became deserted
under the systematic persecution of the oppressors.
The most careful researches ropes tedly made from
time to time by adventurers in search of the rich
depesite, have all resulted in disappointment:
and to this day all that is known is that, some
where in the recesses of those mountains lies the
gold mine of Da Navidad.

MEXICO—TEXAS—SANTA ANNA.
An intelligent veteran in the cause of jurispru
dence and revolutionary struggles, and one who
has warmly and generally advocated the cause
of Texas, at least up to the present period, se
verely, and apparently with justice, cen urcs the
avowed reasons put forth by the Texians for ,
tho manner in which Santa Anna has been liber- j
aled conditionally, and despatched to Washing
ton. Hls arguments are feasible, and may sug- '
gost many reductions to those connected with
Mexico and Texas, as well as those who desire '
that the national honor of the American Union 1
should be preserved pure and spodcss.
1. As all the fundamental laws of the Mexican
Constitution ot 1834, which were not specially
repealed by tho central I’ronunciamento, or form
of government, arcsttll in full force, Santa Anna
may now actually be said to have abandoned or '
abdicated his presidency i for it is distinctly cn- 1
acted that no Mexican President shall enter a for- *
eign country without terminating his presidency. c
Santa Anna is, therefore, no longei President of :
Mexico, for his having come into the United
Slates.
3. Even if ho were president, he has no au- s
thority to originate or effect a treaty with any 1
power except with the previous consent and op- a
proval of the Cohgress of Mexico.
3. None of his acts, as treaties, are obligatory *
or national, without the sign confirmatory of the
Secretary for Foreign Affairs.
4. The Constitution of Mexico expressly pro- 1
hibits the disraeniberment of any portion of that '
republic without the consent of the States taken *
separately by vote; so that a treaty to recognize
the independence or dismemberment of Texas !
could not be valid on the nation at large, accord
ing to the present laws,evert were the formor con- ‘
ditions complied with, unless the sanction of tho *
separate States be also given.
5. The Mexican Congress lately declared that
no act of Santrt Anna would be considered bind- ‘
ing, so long as he was out of Mexico, or under
restraint. It is evident that Santa Anna is still
in duress, virtually, if not actually ; for being lib- r
crated conditionally, on going under an escort as
a guard, to Washington, to ask the mediation of a
the United Stales Government, cannot be con- *
sidcred legal and uncontrolled freedom.
6. Neither Santa Anna nor General Jackson !
have the right internationally to originate troa- 1
ties without the proper credentials, specifying 1
their powers and the place »f rendezvous.
7. The Mexican people can no longer believe 1
in tho neutrality of the United Slates Govern- 1
merit, alter this open and avowed determination I
to interfere for Texas, by absolutely sending for' ®
Santa Anna, to cajole or compell his apparent or ‘
real sanction to its independence. The Mexi- s
cans may with justice construe this conduct in- 11
to a breach of treaty of amity with our Govern- v
ment, particularly should an attempt be made to 1
give any definite result, to what may bo wrought 1
out Os the hopes or fears of Santa Anna, who is 1
still virtually a prisoner, and actually no longer i
a president.
Our Mentor considers the whole transaction
as mercenary and sordid ; and that the desire of
gain in the Texian Cabinet has overcome pro
priety ofjudgment. That Cabinet has arrogated -
both legislative and judicial function. He be
lieves that Santa Anna was to have been con
sidered a culprit, to bo tried, not a prisoner of
war, to bo liberated on parole. Had he been
tried and condemned, the Executive ofTexas i
might have exercised tho pardoning power of a t
Government, and commuted tho sentence into (
one of perpetual banishment from Texas, under
pain of death; and thus have disabled him from 1
heading any invading aimy.
He conceives that it would haVc been prefera
ble to have so acted; because, by .pardoning the ,
culprit, when tried, the character of the Texian ,
Government would be elevated in the eyes of the (
world; because, by sending him at once onward
to Mexico, ho might recover his presidency, at I
least for the unexpired period, which he has now
actually forfeited ; and because, should he be en
abled to fulfil all the obligations which might be (
exacted from him by Texas, be could, at least, bo
enabled to produce a diversion in its favor, by 1
opposing tho Spanish parly, now dominant in 1
Mexico, and so turn the attention and resources ]
of the Mexican authorities and people homeward
to their own more immediate eontests leaving
Texas at liberty to organize her government, for- (
tifv her frontiers, and populate her districts.

Slavery in America.—-During the last week,
Mr. Geu. Thompson, the abolitionist, has been
lecturing in Manchester. Wo petecive from *
the report of one of these lectures in the
, Manchester Guardian, that the Abolition
cause is making rapid progress in America.
We extract the following: “There are 700 1
1 societies, 64 lecturers on emancipation, and j
1 the National Society are in treaty tor 10 more. 1
• Instead ol there being here and there a rnin
: igter on the side of abolition, afraid to show 1
himself, fearing that his church might eject 1
1 him, there are now 2001) ministers of every de- '
■ nomination, in its favor. There are 150 I
' newspapers which, if not exclusively devoted I
to tho cause, yet entertain sound views on the ‘
1 subject. At one meeting of the anti-slavery '
1 society at Charleston, South Carolina, 15,000 '
[ dollars wore collected.”
Tae foregoing is from a recent English pa- •
p.-r and wo copy it io show tho credit due to '
' tne statements of the abolitionists; for this is
! but an average specimen of their reckless i
. mendacity. Was them over a more tlmce <
1 sudden liar than this George I hompsonl Was

uttered 1 Fifteen thousand dollars raised atari

, Charleston or Charleston in South Carolina,

1 little singular, however, that men pretending
r to regard the moral obligations of life should

i such crertures. 2000 cfergymen too. are out

, enough for one harangue, without being coup

sideration of the Pilots of tiiie Port the account

and the appalling loss of lives in sight of the

If a house is in flames there has been no
want of generous and daring spirits to rescue

nals for their aid, and yet they heed them not

From a New Ydrk paper.
IMPORTANT TO NAVIGATORS.
Wc have received a communication from one
of our most respectable ship masters, in reference
to tlie erroneous statements as to the depth ot wa
ter on the Long Island shore, made by the Dritish
consul, in his account ot the disastrous wreck of
the brq. Mexico, which are calculated to mis
lead navigators who place confidence in them. In
the statement referred to, it is asserted in sub
stance that the depth of water in fathoms, shows
tho distance from the shore in miles: That is, if
a vessel be in 300, 100, SO or 10 fathoms of water,
she is so many respective miles from land. This
is altogether incorrect, and if acted upon will prove
fatal to the passengers and crews of many vessels.
As an example of die inaccuracy ot this state
ment, we need only refer to the simple fact,
which is well known to every experienced naviga
tor out of this port, that at five miles distant from
Long Island shore, off Rockaway, there arc thir
teen fathoms water, and to the eastward ot Fire
Island, at the same distance from the beach, there
are eighteen fathoms; that the water shoals very
gradually till within a mile of the breakers, where
ten fathoms have been found. But, according to
the consul’s statement, with that depth of water,
a vessel ought to be ton miles from tho shore.
As the facts here stated are of great importance
to navigators, we would respectfully suggest their
rcpublication by our contemporaries.
In connection with this subject we may as well
allude to a former practice of tho telegraph keep
er at Sandy Hook, which lias been discontinued.
Wo refer to his custom of reporting when the
pilot boats were not on their stations. On mak
ing inquiry on this subject, wo have ascertained
that on a certain night durnig tho last summer,
the telegraph building was broken open by some
unprincipled villians, who destroyed the signals,
broke the telescope, and did other damage to the
premises. This will readily account for too ab
sence of any more reports as to the whereabout ol
the pilots. ” Under these circumstances wc would
suggest that a sum of money be raised by our
merchants, snfllccnt to supply the telegraph keeper
with such signals and other articles as he may re
quire, to resume his good old custom of daily re
porting the position of the pilot boats. We will
then be able to ascertain who are the delinquents.

Wo have no news of iccent date from N. York,
up to Jan. 11, being the latest. There had been
no very recent arrivals from England; dates to
the 26th Nov, front Liverpool, being yet the la
test.
A gcntlematjnst from Millodgoville informs ns
that all the counties had been heard from hut 13

Genti.emen:
We have advices from Matamoras td the 3d
inst. Business was very dull, and very little
doing with the interior. Tho garrison is a
bout 2500 strong, tinder tiie command of Gen.
Armador —they are said to be in a miserable
condition for want of pay, &c. The Mexi
cans seem determined to re-enter Texas with
a force of about 5000 men, and nothmgwas to
prevent it; but the want of money, winch I
tear will. Several of the officers have protest
ed against marching to Texas until their ar
rearages weto paid up. Great exertions
were "making to uphold the discipline ot the
army. 1 received a letter, dated Matamoras,
Jan. 2d. which states that they are shooting
the soldiers almost, every day for robberies. |
1 was shot yesterday, 2 to-day, and 3 more
condemned; also a woman was under sentence
of death, for killing her husband, an officer.
They expect to enter Texas with an army of
8000 men.
General Bravo, the commander-in-clnot, is
on his way tor Texas, with about 4000 men.
Ho is encamped at a place called Monterry,
about 200 miles from Matamoras. He docs
not intend to march via Matamoras. He
had a troublesome march, having been obli
<rcd to shoot live officers and several privates,
f„‘r mutiny, and, being unable to procued far
ther than Monterry with his army, had left in
person for Matamoras.
General Bustimenta, from Pans, and the
minister plenipotentiary of the Mexican gov- j
eminent to the United Slates, both arrived in j
the city of Mexico, about the 15th ult. |
About the sum of $500,000 in specie arri
ved hero during the week, from Tampico and

The Congress of Texas have adjourned to j
Ist April next, when they were to meet again
at the new city of Houston, near Galveston j
Bay, at which lime the result of the negotia- I
i t i o i, for aimexmenl to the United States will
have been ascertained. They have passed
; resolutions authorising the President to ac
, cept any number in his discretion not exceed
ing forty thousand volunteers, for two years
or as long as he may deem proper.
Col. Austin died at Columbia, on the 28th
ult. The army is encamped hear La Be/.ar,
and General llouston has gone down to re
view it.
Several people from Texas arrived here
yesterday, fertile purpose of purchasing ma
terials for building houses in the new city of
Houston. I). G. Burnett, Blsq. ex-president
ofTexas arrived here yesterday. Perhaps
there is as much business doing here with
Texas as there is with Mexico. Several ves
sels have sailed during the week and there
are ten more loading with merchandise and
provisions for Texas.
I
FROM MEXICO.
Tho dates front the city of Mexico are to the
3d Dec. but afford nothing important, and the ex
tracts given in the Gazette of Santa Anna do
Tamaulipas furnish no news.
The schooner Ringleader, which led Tampico
the Dili, brings letters which mention a conspi
racy to overturn the central government; on
which pretext a number of persons were arrested,
among whom were many natives of Havana, ami
a portion of the troops of Ihc garrison. The con
spiracy was to explode on the night of the 14th.
It ap Dears Irom the two proclamations of the
commandant of Tamaulipas that there were some
attempts to cfl’oct a rising at Tampico, and that
many ar.’csts wore made. This is all wo can
make out from the interminable phraseology in
which the party aro involved—here is a sentence
which W‘s have endeavored to translate:
“Tlie most infamous plan that the criminal
minds of the conspirators could invent, and which
had for its objects tho rc-cstablishmcnt of the odi
ous system which Ihc people of the country bad
annihilated;!” (the federal system). We discov
er that Mejia, who walks our streets with so much
tranquility , was expected at Tampico, to deliver
the fine population of the province to the revolted
Texians, and that assassination, tho robbery of
tlie custom house, pillage and amlfchy would bo
the consequences of the undertaking.
It is true that everything wds done in the
dark, and noboddy knew of I lid conspiracy till
the guilty were arrested. This circumstance de
prives us of details, which no doubt wc shall ob
tain either from newspapers or private letters, and
enable us to penetrate the cloud of exclamations
arid anathemas vomited forth by the command
ant of Tamaulipas.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Thursday, Jan. 12,1637.
REDUCTION OF THE REVENUE.
The House resumed the consideration ot
the hill for the reduction of the revenue lo
the wants of the country ; the question be
ing on the motion of Mr. Lawrence to post
pone the bill indefinitely.
Mr. Corwin, who was entitled to the floor,
staled that he would not occupy the time of
the House at all on this subject, if it were
not required of him as one of the members of
the minority of the Committee. He was en
tirely in favor of disposing finally of this bill,
before the Hour of adjournment, and the mode
of disposition which he preferred was an in
definite postponement of the bill. There
wore now left to us only twenty-two days far
business, with tlie exception of those assigned
fur private bills. To lake up such a subject,
under such circumstances, lie thought wry
idle. It would be impossible to get through
the subject, even if every business day was
devoted to it; and it would prevent the action
of the House on many very important subjects.
The President, in his message, had not re
commended to us tiny such measure as tins,
but it was thrust. in upon us, in tlie place of
those subjects of legislation which the Press •
dent had recommended to us. The measure
was entirely uncalled fur and Unexpected. Its
effect upon the industry and prosperity of the
country would, in Ids opinion; be most disas
torus. Taking the estimates of tho report to
he true, tlie hill would abolish and strike out
ofexistence branches of industry which produ
ced the sum of 3 hundred and fitly millions of
dollars a year. The whole system of legisla
tion for the last twenty years was lo be
suddenly abandoned, in order to carry out a
new system ofpolicy. VVas it lo be expected
that this would be done here without very
long and deliberate investigation] The report
assumed that the bill would annihilate interests
which had grown up uudef the legislation of
twenty years, and which, according to the
estimates of the report, now produced three
hundred and lilty millions a year. Would
tiie House undertake to do this at a blow, and
without deliberation, and upon tlie faith of the
members of the Coinmitoe of Ways and
Means. He was sure that the House would
not bo brought lb act upon tlie proposition,
during this session, and, therefore; he was in
favor of indefinite postponement. Another
new doctrine which there report soughtto es
tablish was that public faith was of no account,
and was not to he taken into consideration in
the action of tho House on this subject. The
very men wtio were ready to war with France
to resist the violation of a pledge, were now
ready and earnest lo break their own faith
solemnly pledged to those who bad been induc
ed, by our laws, to withdraw their capital and
industry from commerce and other objects,
and devote it to manufactures. lie weiit
into the history df the Compromise Act to show
that it imposed obligations of tho highest
character on the government not further to
reduce the protective duties till the year
1842.
Mr, CUSHMAN, of N. 11, rose lo reply to
some remarks made yesterday by Mr. Law
rence. That gclilleman, he said, had asked
whether there was any member from New
England who would rise in his place and as
sert that he believed this measure to be bene
ficial lo the interests of tho country. He had
accordingly risen for one to sny that bo was
in favor of this measure, and that he believed
the people of the state which he in part rep.
resented would also support it. They were
j opposed to tho accumulation of revenue for
j distribution and internal improvements; and •
like Mr. Jefferson; they were in favor only
iof those branches of manufactures which can
flourish without tlie aid of protective duties.
He went on lo oppose the protective system
at some length.—ln reply to tho question of t
the gentleman from Massaschusetls, whether
there was any concert of a linn on this sub- j
ject between the majority of Ways and Means
and tho Administration party, he, Mr. C. hop
ed to God, that there was such a concert of itc- <
lion between them, which would lead to the I
speedy adoption of this measure. He did not
doubt, whether there had been any compari
son of opinions or not, that there would be I
found a concert of opinion, growing out of a i
common principle.
In regard lo tlie compromise act, he did j
not hold this measure to be any violation of t
( it; for the compromise had in view this very
i measure, at the end of a certain time; and a
proviso to that act declared that nothing in
the act should prevent such alterations of the
| tariff before 1842 as were necessary to pre
vent any deficiency or surplus of revenue. It i
was not true therefore, that the measure tn
| fringed upon that compromise.
Mr. MUHLENBERG moved to lay the
j bill on the table, and lo print it together with
the report.
This despatch was closed before the qffetf
tion was taken.
WALL STREET.
Friday, Jan. 13.
Thorn is at this moment a singular agitation and
contrariety of entreats refining though the money
market, exchanges and general business. Some cry
out 1 1m “ money is ear y"—“real estate going up"
—“ engagements diminishing”—“ exchanges relum
ing to order"—and every thing and every body
looking liettcr and feeling better. The Well street
. prints, these organs of speculation mid juggle, are
loud in giving out these tones ol encouragement to
business people and timid dealers.
Vet a largo portion of business (non in the same
street are positive that these notes lire delusive.
They point to the facts, and certainly the facts bear
them out to a great extent. Yesterday, stocks fell
some of them as much as 3 percent—United Swiss
is very languid, and exchanges are feverish nnd un
certain. Money is plenty. This must be fully ad
mitted—but at what price? Wo saw some of the
best paper in the street yeVterdny negotiated at 3
and 31 per pent a month, This paper also is at
long dates—4,s or 6 months to run. Business men
in a good condition, may sometimes be compelled
to submit to such high rates for paper, at very short
dates—but when lung paper sells so high there Is a
radical defect in the constitution of the money mar
ket, that newspaper paragraphs, ( tying “ all’s well,”
cannot cure or annihilate. W bat could makegood
men so far encroach upon futurity, at such a high
price, os lo sell their paper at 2 or 2! per cent a
month, lor 4,5, or 6 mouths ? (’au any species of
commercial business warrant Such a leap into futu
rity ?
It is generally believed now that the great pres
sure which the mass of eummereial_ engagements
caused, has measurably abated by their own liqui
dation, and their resolution to enter into no new
ones. We are disposed to credit the statement, that
tho still existing high rales, for which long paper
sells in the street do not arise Irom the wonts of re
gular commercial business. Froril certain move
ments around us, wo believe Ilia high rale of inter
est is kept up by the real estate dealers ’’’be great
bulk ol eummereial engagements have been can
celled, but there is no small amount of real estate
engagements coming into piny, which yet keep up
the high interest of money. Chancery sides ol pro
perty have increased of lute, nnd several important
movements have been made in real estate, which
indicate an approaching uneasiness in dint quarter.
The great bulk of money that is now required, it
is believed, is wanted lo support the prices of real
estate. Our great staple articles, under die contin
ued pressure, have diminished sensibly in value.
Within six or twelve months, cotton ha? (alien 10 to
15 per cent—tobacco 30 per.cent—rail rood stocks
4J to 50. During Ibis period real eslnte has been
supported and buoyed up by vast efforts—by gieat
combination—by the excessive high interest of
money. Occasionally particular parcels would have
lo submit lo tbo into ol the times, but generally the
holders have been strong men and would not sell,
even uttlie alternative of paying 3 to 31 per cent a
month lor money.
It is idle, however in tbo Express or Courier lo
say, nu they did yesterday, that real estate is advan
cing in the lace of tho pressure. Real estate cannot
advance in the teeth ol interest of 34 to 30 percent,
Vet the struggle will be made. Ileitis of dwelling
bouses are to bo advanced next month, though the
abundance of stores, nnd the curl ailment of trade,
must lower the rents ol places of business. We ex
pect to see a tremendous struggle on the subject ol
real estate. The commercial crisis lias eased off n
little, but that of real estate is just coming on. Every
effort will be made, even should bidders raise inter
est to 40 per cent, to keep up Ihc prices of real estate,
nnd even to advance its rale as well as the rents of
dwelling bouses.
We shall watch these mailers w ith interest. Mean
time, the movements of Allmny nnd Washington
ore beginning to create a sensation in Wull street.
It is generally believed that there is an egregious
juggle going on in both capitals, iii rein ion to the
currency. The proposed iflodiueatiun id" the Re
straining Law, bus created a universal burst ol in
dignation in Wall street. Its provisions are laugh
ed to scorn. Tic usury laws also are talked ulioilt
tone sort of purpose. The refusal In grant new
bank charters is also believed lu be a juggle—the
legislature only want time lo make their own bar
gains, In Washington, a proposition to reduce the
revenue, the anti/ red useful practical measure yet
proposed, hasculle.. Ihrl.li tho opposition of the poli
ticians and tlie mnnulaeturers. It is now believed
that neither the Legislature nor Congress cun do any
thing in time lo ward olf the transler operations ol
the government yet going on, or the reaction of the
English money market on our own. Wo shill see
however.

To a young gentleman of , who asked
the writer for verses.
Is there a light to bless thee
In all this world of cure,
With a light which shines more beautiful,
When others frowns appear f
Tlie rose hi desert bluoulidg,
Is an emblem of that smile:
It sheds its sweetest fragrance there,
Tho’ uoiio admire tic wh 10.
Is th ro 'ineye that brightens
As it gathers light from thine;
And holds its fund fidelity,
As firm in nvery dime'.?
The earliest star ofoveuing
Is like that faithful eye :
U throws a steady lustre o’er
The changes of tho sky.
Is there a voice that limiters
Whop o’or it breathes illv name,
But in its softest cadence is
Unchangingly the same?
The win I through roses sighing,
Is tie' music of that voieo t
It hath a “ dying" sweetness, yet
It bids the heart rejoice !
Is there a heart that loves then,
With a fond woman's love—
That lias no thought of w orship, but
To thee and One above 7
O, ask rtd more of fortune
Her rich treasures lo import—
Shelnllh only one, that's priceless—
"J’is that true nnd loving hcait!
Tho rose in desert blooming—
The mellow evening slur —
The wind through roses straying—
Aro all ebneetiltcd them.
Then murmur not nl fortune,
If thou hast a gill like this;
For the smile, of true rj/eetion is
The sum of human bliss.
