From Ilia New York IF raid. ADVENTURE OF A YOUNG TEXIAN IIKUO IN NEW YORKHARBOR. Early last Sunday afternoon the weather was bright and balmy in Broadway—clear and cold on the waters flowing around Now York, like a sea of silver round a gem of beauty. About the time that the last chimes of the church bells were calling the Christian to his prayers, a lady, whose lino animated features were covered with excite ment and anxiety, approached Whitehall slip, at the eastern end of the Gallery. “Wheiccait I get any of the Whitehall boys'!’ said she in a distracted voice. “Any of the Whitehall boys!" said a bluff looking sailor, turning the quid in his cheek— them (hey he.” She approached, and three or four gathered a round her. “What is the matter Ma’aml" “0! enough is the matter. lam doslracted for my sou. My poor boy has been enticed away from me—he lias been inveigled aboard a vessel down the harbor. 1 must go aboard and get him 1” “Why Ma’am how can yon gel him!” “Wont you lake a poor distrnclcd mother a board to gel her dear hoy, who has heon persua ded away by ! I have already been at the Police office, hut we have no laws to protect ourselves.” Several of ilia cool and courageous Whilehall ers now grouped round the unfortunate lady. Perhaps no class of men have softer and mure feeling hearts to all the impulses of genuine hu manity than the ocean dwellers—those adventu rous men who brave death in every billow, and smile at eternity speaking in the storm. “And 1 will go—” “And 1 will go—” “And I’ll go too.” Gruff, quiet, but true tosympathy for female suf fering, six robust watermen of Whitehall volun teered to accompany the lady to the vessel on which h er son was aboard, Mie w i therefore handed gently into lbs boat. The wind blew chilly over tlie water —the sky clear and cold. She pulled her shawl close ur around her shoulders, s.it down in the slcrtt, and" keeping Iter eyes in u direction down tlio harbor the whole, lime, regained some composure in the novelty of the scene. The gallant tars labored at the oar the whole afternoon. The little skill Flow sullenly o\et the light, airy, curling waves. While the little bark is thus clearing its watery way to the Narrows, we will unravel the causes that brought a poor distracted mother into this singular and adventurous position. Tlte cause of Texas has created much sympa thy—and justly so. Vet frequently the best ol causes is injured by injudicious and improper acts. A small ve-sols called the Invincible sailed last Sunday for Texas. Numbers of individuals join ed the expedition, and among others a very pretty boy called Saveran Julius Seignettc, the son ol the lute P. 13. Seiguelle, resident here, of the great brandy house of Rochelle. This vessel was fitted out, as we hear, by several individuals in this city, on the faith of some land speculation in Texas, Mid if wo are not mistaken wo have heard the names of James W ats .It Webb and Samuel Swarlwout, on the list. Great efl’orts were made to procure a crew n mounting to 60 or 00 men. Young Several! J. Keignette, the youth in question, was employed et Waite’s lottery office, at the corner of 11 road way and Maiden Lane. It was here he got ac quainted with some of the Toxian officers, one of which was a Mr. Waite, the brother of his em ployer. Young Seignelta was o smart, capable, intelligent, beautiful boy of his age. The Tex i in speculators threw their eyes upon him—talk ed to him—a- ked him to join them—that they would make him a midshipman in their navy— then u lieutenant—then a commodore. The imagination of the youth was fired. His mother got notice of it, and forbid his indulging in any such extravagance, assuring him that his pros pects were excellent in life, but for him to go in to the Texion navy would lie death and destruc tion to her hopes, her maternal feelings—and to her delight and happiness. In spite of this, the poor boy was persuaded to Aun away from his mother’s roof last Saturday— to stop all night on Staten Island, and on Sunday morning to join the schooner in the stream. Unsuspecting this thing the poor mother went to liis employer in Broadway, the brother of the Texian officer. She got no satisfaction. She went to the police office. “1 can do nothing for you, said the police justi ces. “My God !” said she, ” is this-country ! is this my naliyc land'!—ahd are tharc no laws and no authority to protect n mother against the arts of pirates!” In this distracted slate of wind the mother went to Whitehall slip and determined hersclF to go abroad the Tcxain vessel and demand her boy with all the energy and indignation of a mother s love. It was, therefore, about half an hour past five ‘ in the afternoon of last Sunday that a line skiff opproa bed the side of the Invincible, which was lying at anchor on this side of the Narrows, near Staten Island. It was a mere accident that the verse! was there. Her commander bad just gone ashore at Suten Island to give his wife the la-1 parting kiss —the last long, warm, conclusive em brace, before l>e embarked on a strange and r«r*e 00. Tlio sk ff came rubbing up to the vessel. A rope was flung aboard. The Whitchallers jttmed > in a single bound on board. The lady, coild and 1 shivering, yet warm with material indignation , against the kidnappers of her boy, was also lifted aboard, “ Where's the officer!—any officer! Where’s ■ the Lieutenant!" r The Lieutenant made his appearance. “Oh ! Lieutenant Waite,” said she, “how could you do so ! Give me my eon—give me back my poor boy this instant.” Lieutenant Waite looked foolish. “ Arc you delerminpn to have him!” ' “Determined,msdam, to have him!" said site with alook of ineffable indignation. “Yes, that I am—l will never leave this von-cl till I get him. I will go to New Orleans—to Texas—to the bottom of that sea, sooner than leave you till I get my poor .Several). The Fixed resolution—the resolute lone of the . mother overcame all the officers and nonplused I the crew of the Invincible, A search was made for the boy, and in a few minutes he wasdiscov rod in tears, hid away in a place between decks’ i sick, and disgusted with one day's duly in the r Tcxain naval service as organized by the land speculators and,adventures of this cily. “ Severan, my boy, comejwith your mother,” ; He jumped aboard the little skiff—his mother followed him—the Whitehallcrs, none of whom ’ but felt joy for the poor mother, seized their oars shoved off’from the schooner, shaped their wate ry way to New York, and at nine o’clock at night, the bright stars glittoring’iii heaven above, they reached the steps at the eastern end of the Battery. Scvcran and his mother went home. Tills is a true story in all its leading details. Wo challenge contradiction fioni arty quarter. We have mimes, and dales, and facts, and proof * in abundance. Nothing, perhaps, has injured the cause—the glorious cause of Texas so much a« the Wall s'rcet speculators and Five Point ad ventures, who have been engaged in forwarding its interests in this cily. Hundreds and thou sands of that human article of supply and demand called “ man,” can bo got in this cily, and to lake it, would be a mercy extended to society and to puliiic order; but when the Texian speculators cast their eyes upon Iho sons of respectable qiti zens, who are something heller than mere mate rials to raise the prices of land or to secure a grant, we think a check ought to be put to all such operations in a civilized community. llomiw PzrairicATiotrs.—The Hamilton (Tcnn.) Observer slates that two scientific gen tlemen, viz; Mr. Chester of England, and Mr. Davis, of Philadelphia, have recently discovered in a cave, on or near the Great Laurel Ridge of the Cumberland Mountains, three entire petrified bodies ; one of a dog lying flat upon (he rock, and two of men ; one silting, and the other standing with a spear balanced in his hand. Part of the elolhesoftho hitman figures is also petrified. Preparations were making to forward their bodies to New York. Theatrical Intku.iokndk.—Forrest we learn by a correspondent at London, made no lesa than TJUOf during llto thirteen nights of bin perfonnoncce at Liverpool and Manches ter. lie is now m negotiation with Bunn, ol Drury, lor . r )0/ a night. It is a mistaken idea that Mr. Forrest is immensely rich. 110 is reputed worth about SOO 000 Hamblin and Barrott both aro received with much distinc tion by Mr. Stephen Price at London. Exciianob of Courtesies.—The Canadians, in their deliberative bodies, are sometimes as dis courteous as others, freely as they may censure us in our political proceedings. The king’s soli citor for Upper Canada, Mr. C. Hagorman, and representative from Kingston, told his brother, Mr. Monahan, Iho other day, that ho was “ a stupid bbmdniiig fool!" Mr. M. replied that he waslired of insulting the learned solicitor who had not on any occasion sufficient spunk to re sent it. INTERESTING TABLE.

' Thursday Evenin'-, March 10. IR..71. 1 The Honey Moon, by the Countess of Hies- ( sington, and other talcs by Mrs. B. C, Hall, Miss Milford, E. L. Bulwcr,&c. The above is the title of a work of two vo j lumcs laid on our table by Messrs. Richard) Sl Sloy. We have not had lime to look into it yet, J but from the title of the work and tho names of I the authors, we cannot doubt its interest. Scve i rsl beautiful extracts have been published from il 1 by the northern papers. ! The communication of “Hamilton” which we e insert below, has been on hand sometime, and should have had an earlier notice, but for tho i absence of the Editor from the city, shortly after 'j its reception, and the subsequent occupancy of our columns by Inaugurals, Farewell Addresses and Speeches, r We must say in the onlsct of the few remarks ri which we shall make, that we think Hamilton H was either very hasty in drafting his communi t caiton, or else he does not entertain very distinct i, ideas of the doctrine of State Rights. He admits 6 that the interrogatories put to us by him, iuvolve no question of the relative rights of the General and Slate Governments, but puts the query, f whether llto “ rights of a State may not be in e vaded apart from the action of the General Gov * ernment! Certain ly, if a foreign foe should j land upon our coast and seize upon our soil, the * “rights” of the Stale would be “ invaded”, but * nut that description of rights, which flowing from ' our compact with the otherj-' 1 tales of this Unk>n> , forma the basis of the political creed of our par ■ ty. The doctrine which distinguishes us from our opponents, is simply and plainly this—That . all powers not delegated or transfered in tho con stitution to the General Government, by the Slates, aro reserved lo tho States—that any u > surpation, arbitrary exercise, or invasion of these reserved rights by the General Government, may l’ rightfully be resisted by the States. Our oppo f nents hold that whatever tho General Ootrern- I raent may do, however unconstitutional, tho * Slates aro bound to submit to, and that any r«- sistanco to this action, amounts to Treason. . But we proceed lo answer the various questions 1 submitted to ua, putting the answer to the end of eaclt question, and including it in brackets , to distinguish it from the communication itself— , We answer the first three or four queries together. FOR THE CHRONICLE AND SENTINEL. Me. Editor :—Your paper of yesterday, (Ist ’ March) is before me. You have declined the il lustration of questions submitted on the subject es | tho United Slates Bank—you would seem to * draw off my attention, and that of your readers, to what is merely incidental—you say there is nothing in the interrogatories, affecting the claims of either, to being Slate Rights’ men—you in favor of the policy, expediency, and constitution ality of the United States Bank having Blanches in Georgia, and I against it—it is, you say, a mere question of political expediency—or rather economy. You say, those interrogatories involve i no question of the rights and powers of the Gen ' era!and States Government. True, most true! I did not intend it, —but, may not the eighths of a Slate be invaded apart from tho action of the i General Government. Ifyca—where is the State ’ Rights’man win) will not (ly to the icscno. For * the purpose as knowing whether we are really , Statu Rights’ men, I must ask some more ques tions, which, if again declined as before, I shall, 1 at some future lime, be compelled to answer my self. la Georgia a sovereign Slate, beyond tho t powers delegated for certain purposes. If yea— is tho creation of a corporate power—to issue a a Bank currency for the trade & commerce of tho Stale, an act of Sovereignty ! 1 If it bo an act of sovereignly to delegate to tho Corporators of a Bunk, the power to issue a State currency, or to any other Corporators, being Cit irons of the Slate for any other purpose, does the act praying for llto benefits conferred on the petitioners, extend equally to those who are not citizens of the same State, —to tho subjects of France, or of Great Britain, or even to the Gov ernment of those nations ! Is there any thing essentially different in the Constitution of the Stale of Georgia as a Sover eign Stale, from that of the United States ! Aro not all the powers reserved to tho Slate as a Sov ereign, which ate not expressly delegated ! [To tho above questions wo answer; that Georgia and Pennsylvania arc alike sovereign over tlio rights not delegated in the constitution —that the Fhcorporation of Banks is an act of sovereignty reserved by tho States, and that, therefore the United States Bank incorporated by Pennsylvania, is just as constitutional as the i Mechanics’ or any other Bank chattered by ’ Georgia ] If all the powers of a State not delegated, are reserved, has Pennsylvania,through the medium of the Creature site has made, in her sovereign character, a right to invade tho sovereignty us ) Georgia, by the exercise of a power granted on s ly to her own Citizens ! s [This question dovelopes very strange ideas— -0 a most singular misconception in supposing it to ( bo an invasion of tho sovereignly of Georgia, „ (or citizens of Pennsylvania to purchase stock in 1 a bank chartered by llto former. Many of tho * Banks in this city send largo amounts of their Funds to New Y'ork to purchase Southern paper there; \vc ask Hamilton, is this an invasion of tho sovereignty of Now York, for hanks chatter ‘ cd by Georgia to do business there !] If all legislation by a Stale, be designed for the | benefit of tho citizens of that State, have llto cit , izens of another Slate, a light to participate in r these benefits, without the express consent of the ’ constitutional legislation of that Slate ! , [Wo answer most certainly that they have . the right, unless expressly disqualified by the Lc ! gislsturo of that State. The Constitution of the ! .United Slates declare) that “cilixons of each I Stale shall he entitled to alt tho privileges and ; immunities of tho citizens of other States.”] - If certain persons in Augusta, citizens of tho ■ State, pray for an act of incorporation, the bene ( fits of which are to accrue lo them and their fel j low citizens of tho same State, can the Corpora , tors sell and dispose of tho rights and benefits 1 conferred on them, without the consent of the | power which created them ! , [Certainly ! who ever had to ask tho consent -of the State to sell Bank Stock to citizens of oth ‘ er Slates, or to any body else qualified to hold J. properly under the laws of tho Slate!] , If the recipients of the benefits and powers conferred by a Bank charter, as Corporators, have s a legal and constitutional right to transfer their rights and powers, to the citizens or corporate s creations of another Stale, or nation—may not 1 his honor the Mayor and the City Council, sell lo Nicholas Biddlo tho right and the ho;t«r “of preserving the peace and good order and well be ing ol the City of Augusta ” during the period of their incumbency I [To this last question we answer—that Bank ti stock is properly—it can be sold in the market l! like a horse or an ox—it can be transferred from c c owner to purchaser—offices are not property — they are trusts or agencies, held by the incumbent y for the public benefit, and are not the subject n matter of bargain and sale. Who ever heard of c snch parallel before 1 Is Hamilton dreaming’] I may riot further Wfepass on your columns at p present, will conclude with the expression of h my regrets that you as the exponent of the sen- a timents of the Slates Rights’ men in Augusta, _ and throughout the State, have not had laisura to t expound or illustrate the questions suggested in c a previous number of your paper, being as they * are, of the greatest importance to their civil and * economical and political interests.

The Indians desire peace ; but the idea of emigrating is a bitter pill to them. No reason* are assigned why|they did not come in on the 18th. This procrastination looks suspicious.

The influenza—or as the Paris journals call it the influence, (I’influence,) makes quite a sensa tion in the capital; The King had a touch of it on the 27lh —the military hospitals were crowd ed with patients from the garrison of Paris, and the physicians themselves wera no belter off than others. The papers were busily discussing, with con siderable acrimony, a proposed law establishing the appennge of the Duke of Orleans and the Queen of Belgium. The opposition journals contend that the children of Louis Pbillippo are amply provided for by the immense private pro perty of their lather, which he made over to them the very day before he accepted the crown. The Paris papers say that the epidemic pre vailing in that capital is very different from the grippe of 1831, and much less dangerous than tiro influenza raging in England. Very few deaths have been caused by it in Paris. This, however, may be ascribed to the less stimulating diet of tha French. The preparations for the new expedition a gainst Constantine were not yet completed, but going on with great activity. The Courier Francais say* that a courier was despatched to St. Petersburg on the 28th January with instructions to the French minister, M. Barante, to demand explanations touching an article in the official Gazette of Warsaw, on the subject of the debate in the Chamber of Depu ties- The following is a translation of the offensive paragraph. “The different paragraphs of the address do not agree well together, or with the actual condi tion ofaffairs. Thus in the outset it speaks of the general tranquility of the world; but a little further on, if deplores the civil war in Spain, and the defeat at Constantino. ‘•lt is known that the differences with the U nited Slates and Switzerland have gained for France neither honor nor profit. On the contra ry it seems that frightened by the former, she con sented to pay what was demanded, and as to the latter, whom she wished to frighten in her turn she found so many difficulties in the fulfilment of her purpose, that she was glad to accept in haste a quasi demand for pardon.” The death of Major Henry Leo, of Virginia, author of the life of Napoleon, and American ed itor of the New English paper established in Pa ris, is announced in Galignani’s Messenger.

The most im portant intelligence is the speech of the King with the opening of parliament. The mercan tile intelligence by this arrival is interesting. The death of Capt. Delano. —Wo regret to learn that Captain Delano, of the ship Roscoe, died on his passage from this port to Liverpool, and was interred at Liverpool, on the 3rd of February. His lemaina were followed to the grave by a large number of Americans and others. OPENING OF PARLIAMENT. The opening was by commission, antici pated.—The commissioners wore the Lord Chan cellor. Archbishop of Canterbury, Marquis of LansJown, and Lords Melbourne and Duncan non. The king's speech was read by the Lord Chancellor, as follows i 1 Mg Lord* and Gentlemen, r We arc commanded by his Majesty to acquaint q you, that his Majesty continues to receive from all Foreign Powers the strongest assurances of ) their friendly dispo ition, and his Majesty trusts j that the experience of the blessings which peace | confers upon nations will tend to confirm and se cure the present tranquillity. His Majesty laments that the civil contest \ which has agitated the Spanish monarchy has ‘ not been brought to a close ; hut his Majesty has I continued to afibrd to the Queen of Spain that aid which, by the treaty of Quadruple Alliance of 1834, his Majesty engaged to give, if it should 1 become necessary, and his Majesty rejoices that his force has rendered useful assist ance to the troops of her Catholic Majesty. Events have happened in Portugal, which, for a timo threatened to disturb the internal peace of that country. His majesty ordered, in conse quence, a temporary augmentation of his naval force in the Tagus, for the more effectual protec tion of the persons and properly of his subjects resident in Lisbon, and the admiral commanding his majesty’s squadron was authorised, in casa of need, to afford protection to the person of tha Queen of Portugal, without, however, interfering in those constitutional questions which divided the conflicting parties. His Majesty has directed the reports of the commissioners appointed to inquire into the slate of the province of Lower Canada to be laid be fore you, and has ordered us to call your attention to that important subject. We have also in charge to recommend for your serious deliberations those provisions which will be submitted to you for the improvement of the law and of the administration of justice, assuring you that his Majesty’s anxiety for the accom plishment of these objects remains undiminished. We arc enjoined to convey to you His Majes ty’s desire that you should consult upon such farther measures, as may give increased stability to the established church, and promote concord and good will. Gentlemen of the House of Commons; The estimates of the year have been prepared with every desire to meet exigencies of the pub lic service in the spirit of a wise country. His Majesty has directed them to be laid before you without delay. The increase of the revenue has hitherto more than justified the expectation crea ted by the receipts of former years. His Majesty recommends an early renewal of your inquiries into the operation of act per mitting the establishment of joint stock banks The host security against the mismanagement of banking affairs must ever be found ia the capaci ty and integrity of those who are intrusted with the administration of them, and in the caution & pru dence of the public; but no legislative regulation should be omitted which can increase and insure the stability of establishments upon which th? commercial credit so much depends. My Lords and Gentlemen: His majesty has more especially commanded us to bring under your notice the state of Ireland and the wisdom of adopting all such measures as may improve the condition of that part of the United Kingdom.—His majesty recommends to your early consideration tha pressing constitution of the municipal corporations of that country, the laws which regulate tithes, and the difficult but present question of establishing some legal provision for the poor, guarded by prudent regula tions, and hy such precautions against abuse, as your experience and knowledge of the subject ena ble you to suggest. His Majesty commits these great interests into your hands, in the confidence that you will be able to frame laws in accordance with the wishes of his Majesty and the expectation of his people. His Majesty is persuaded that should this hope be fulfilled,you will not only contribute to the welfare oflreland.but strengthen the law and constitution of those realms by securing their benefits to all clas ses of Ills Majesty’s subjects. The address in answer to the speech was rnov vod the Earl of Fingali, in the House of Lords, & seconded by Lord Suffield. It was, as usual, an c cho to the speech. The Duke of Wellington said he had never heard a speech from the throne or an addres in answer, less liable to objection, but fell himself compelled to vindicate the House of Lords from charge of injustice to Ireland, brought against by both the mover and seconder of the address, in their speeches. The Duke proceeded to com ment with much severity upon the recent resusci tation of the National Association by Mr. O’Con. nell, which he described as a creator of distur bance and conspiracy. He then adverted to the affairs of Spain, insisted upon the nccesity of enforcing tho quadruple treaty, and warned ministers of the dangers and difficulties in which they would involve themselves by any thing like interference, or by the employment of any force beyond that stipulated lor by the quadruple treaty Lord Melbourne was gratified to hear that no idea was entertained of moving an amendment and with some few exceptions concurred in what had fallen from the Duke. Ho regretted the exis tence of tho National Association in Ireland, and he could not approve the grounds on which it was formed, and some of its proceedings. He perfectly coincided in the impropriety of interfer ing with the internal affairs of Spain, and main tained that the government had not interfered. All the changes and revolutions of that kingdom werojowing to ihe inefficient manner in which the war was carried on by the Queen’s government, and had notin any manner been brought about by the agents of tho British government. The address was then agreed, to aad tho House adjourned. From the New York American March, 11. Still Later from Eduope. —By the Sylvie de Grasse from Havre we have Paris p*apers to tho 3d and Havre to the 3d ult. They furnish little of general interest. A question of great magnitude, according to the Journals, has arisen between the British and Russian Governments, by reason of the confiscation by the latter of a British vessel in tho Black Sea, on a charge of breaking a blockade. It will hardly, we imagine, lead to any hostile results. The influenza, Grippe, is spreading on the continent. In England it was becoming more moderate and manageable. London Jan 28. The Bank Directors were understood to bea gain in deliberation yesterday, but without any result. Yesterday was the day fixed for tho re payment of the temporary advances made by tho Bank, and it seems to have been effected with out inconviencnce to the parlies concerned. The House in London which has failed, is not as has boon stated, that of Medley, Scott & Uo., but that of Thos. Scott, Junior who was once a partner in the former house. The amount for which he has failed is not very largo. London, Jan 28th. Our ally Russia, it will be seen, dared to vio late tho personal liberty of British subjects—to seize upon their property—to insult tho British flag, ami sot the British Government and defi ance. That Russia, by this act, sets the Bri tish Government at defiance there can be no doubt. In order to convince ourselves this is not a mistake, we have only to look at the pre tence for tho capture. What was that pretence! It was, that the Vixen had broken tho blockade of the coast of Circassia—a blockade which our Government had never acknowledged ; and it was indeed upon the official assurance that it had not and would not bo acknowledged, the Vixen sailed and broke tho blockade. Will our Government now dare to support its own origin al decision—will it dare to vindicate the insulted honor of the British flag ’ Will it prcler a crouching and truckling course of policy to a man ly and energetic one ’ Will it find some means of backing out of the responsibility which the cap ture of tho Vixen, in breaking an unrecognised blockade, has thrown upon it, and thus prostrate England in deeper humiliation than ever beneath the insolent supremacy of Russia ’— Herald. CO^IERCIAL. REMARKS. COTTON.—As reported in our last, the market (or the article opened on Monday very doll, and so continued with an evident tendency downwards, and sales difficult to make even at a decline of fully i cl. prime and 1 rt. on the inferior qualities; there has been scarcely any thing doing since the receipt of the last'accounts from Liverpool, and our ■ quotations may bo considered as nominal, GROCEIilES.—Wclmve no change to notice ; ■ business of all kinds continues dull; as reported be fore, the difficulty of getting conveyances cause the d business in this line to be very light. EXCHANGE.—Checks at sight on New York not to be bad from any of our Banks. Out of doors 21 per cent is asked and obtained ; 30 days sight li per cent. FREIGHTS continue at old rates. j STOCKS.—No sales have come to our knowl- |, edge this week. I London, Jan. 30th. ti Stock Exchange, 13 o’clock.—Consols are 89J for Account.

For Cash, Threes have improved sc; Fives have declined sc; for the end of the month, Fives and Threes have improved sc. HAVRE MARKET, JAN 31. Coffee. —Our rat -s have undergone no alteration. Cottons. —The decline which we noticed in our preceding report, has made further progress, during the last eight days. It is impossible for us to state with precision 1 ho importance of the decline, which ■ has varied according to the more or less eagerness shown by our holders to realize; we think, howev er, that we shall not bo far Irora the truth by esti -1 mating it at 3 centimes per halt k. at an average on all descriptions of cottons; and we close the month with on excessive heavy market. The (tiles have been limitwj tomparalively with those of the preceding fortnight; they embrace 3333 biles, consisting of 1733 Louisiana at 117f60 to 1601 —the latter price for a fancy 10t—73 Mobile at 133 f; 1837 Upland at 131fto 137150; and 155 Alabama, I damaged sold publicly at 1031 to IlOf; the whole | duly paid.

From the New York Herald. WALL STREET, March 11. ; The accounts from Europe to the 29th ofJan . uary, promulgated yesterday morning, giving the information of a fall in the cotton market of Li r verpool, and a slight reaction in the money mar i ket of London had the effect, yesterday, of de f pressing stocks, widening the inactivity, and ! causing a slight addition to the embarrassments , of the markets. Several stocks fell, and the bu ! ainess was less in quantity than usual. There . were also one or two specie drafts on the banks in favour of the south, but this was replaced by . the arrival of fifty or a hundred thousand dollars . in specie, from Philadelphia. The continued agi , tation of the specie business gives a great fever ishness to the market. I Great quantities of new paper currency are , coming into this region from the south and south , west. It is calculated that about one million of , dollars are in calculation here, of the currency of other shies. This money is generally very good , and sound, with the exception of certain new t banks and rail road corporations of the south l west. We saw yesterday a note for SIOO, issued by I the Mississippi and Alabama Rail Road Company, I made payable at the office of Messrs. Josephs of , this city, which was worthless in point of act. . That company has provided no funds for, the re . demption of their paper here, and the issue of it, . in that form, is equivalent to a gross fraud. The , bill in question was purchased in New Orleans > fur a remittance. It came into the hands of sea faring men here, and thus caused great distress , to respectable people, to whom it was a large sum. Several other corporations of the south have s issued similar bills, made payable in Now York, without any funds being provided for. The currency of the country is in a very bad condition. Since the government began to tam per with it, it has gone on from bad to worse. s Our general system of banking and paper curren- J cy is utterly useless —only capable of causing 1 mischief, unless wc have a national bank to regu -1 late and control their issues. Five hundred banks, 1 all issuing money, without let or hindrance, will > create great evils both to commerce and to the 1 people. The legislature of no state can apply a f rmnedv. The evil is beyond state legislation, > and as to the notion of the locofocos, they are the greatest trash that ever filled men’s minds. 0 In Albany a very remarkable proposition has 0 been made, which will cause if it passes, an en tire change in the banking speculations of this state. It is now proposed to make the Safety • Fund Banking system, which only applies to par s ticular banks already chartered, general through -1 out the state —open to all capitalists on acquiesc 1 ing in its general provisions and principles. There ' is also a probability that it may pass. If so, there will be an end to the intrigues perpetrated in pro- , ‘ 1 ' curing banks as heretofore. Yet the extension ■> of the system will. have little effect on the cx a changes or the commercial operations throughout r the country. Nothing will restore confidence to the movements of commerce but the establishment of one or two great national banks—one in New - York, another in New Orleans. Such cstablish -0 ments, dealing only in exchanges, fotcign and 1 domestic, and issuing paper money, receivable. - throughout the country at all government offices, - would regulate our system in six months. 0 The spirit of the general markets is so, so. Min s ton & Go. had a large sale of Tea and Cassia, the ■ cargo of the Horatio, at their new sales room, 1 Phcenix Buildings. It was fully attended, and c went oil'at good prices—terms 6 months, approv r cd notes. The prices ranged from 35$ to 69 t cents for teas—los to 10$ for cassia. Since our t last weekly report, we have to nolico sales of 100 e hales common St. Domingo Tobacco, at 121 and r 100 do. fair quality at 10 cents. All descriptions - nre dull, and no sales have been made but of a few I straggling hhds. Kentucky. Yesterday there i were 100 cases French goods by Messrs. John • Haggerty & Sons, at C months credit. The sale • was well attended, and goods went off fair. Flour - as usual.—Also, a sale of 25 bags sugar took 1 place at 11 cents ; 50 boxes do. at 10jj. 4 raos.; - 15 brls. do. 6{, 90 days, 45 brls. imported flour t at 7j, 8 a Ulj, cash ; 140 bags wheat, at $1,25 a $1,30. cash; 6 bales hides at 525, 59, 60 a 79, i 6 tnos.; 23 bales wool, 6J, 71 a 8, mos.; 23 sal ted hides 5 ; 33 dry do, 6s, cash. By accounts from the south, per Express Mail, the money market generally is in a very depress ed state. At Baltimore, money at 1$ to 3 per 1 cent a month—at Philadelphia 1$ to 2s. By the Sylvie de Grasse, last evening, we . have commercial accounts from Havre to the Ist ' ult. On that day the sales of cotton were 731 American sorts at 1 00 to 1,36 —imports 1250 ■ bales.
