BROWN, THE TEXIAN PRISONER? BRAXORU.{TfXM.) Feb. 22. 1837- To (h« Kditorqf tht Uallimorc Patriot. Sir—During my shot: sojourn in this place have had the Itigli grant iti atian of becoming ultimately acq'nliitc I with Mr. Reuben 11. Brown, one ni the Texian prisoners who cr c»pe<i from Mata mores, Mex co, in December last, ami of having from known lipe n recital «U' some of I lie perils he encountered. The pleasure 1 received was greatly enhanced by the unaffected modesty with which this voting gentleman made tv.s communications to me. lie i« by no means a trumpeter of his own tame. On lliecoiitary, 1 dare aaserl that you might associate with him a month without receiving from him any intimation of the heroism he has evinced in battel, or the for titode with which he has evinced in battle, nr the fortitude wiili w hich he has endured the most biller calamities. The tacts I have ob tained from him were elicited only by my di rect inquiries; and though he readily gave me, in (ho most polite manner, any information I asked, yet 1 doubt whether he would have done so had lie known that I intended to make a publication. I think, however, that a minute account ol the pctilshc experienced in the cause of liberty ought to be given.—lt will be I nothing more than justice to himsclt, it will bo *- interesting to your readers; and it may be sor- viceable to Texas, by exciting others to es pouse a cause which his already g von rise to deads of valor worthy of the best days ol Sparta I have met with several gentlemen in lints country whoknew Mr. B. in tho United Slates, and their accounts only strengthen my admi ration of Ins character. He was born and raised near Columbus, Georgia, where his fa ther still resides He is represented as not only possessing superior courage and forti tude, and uncommon physical powers, and as to all athletic sports, all efforts of manly strength or activity, lie is said to have few equals and perhaps no superiors. When the small parly of Tnxians under Johnson was defeated at San Patricio, (winch event occurred on the 29th February, 1830.) Air. Brown was about 75 miles from that ?lace, reconnoitring tho country along tho lio Grande. He was in company with Dr. Grant, and his party of2o men. Tho whole parly, 27 in all, advanced towards San Palri veto without knowing anything of ihcdisaslcrs •of the 28th, or that the enemy were in their inetghborhood. The Mexicans, however, hear dng of their approach, were placed in ambns •cade eight miles from San Patricio. When ■they came up, Brown and Grant, who wore riding a short distance ahead of the men, were suffered to pass unmolested, but ns soon ns the others reached the ambuscade, the enemy fired upon them. Brown and Grant imme diately whcele I their horses, and there, sur rounded by hundreds, this little band (ought with desperation, never thinking of a retreat until 26 as their number were massacred. The remaining two, one the subject of this epistle, and the other tho commander of the party, attempted to escape; but they were surrounded by such numbers ns made it a hope less effort. Tho gallant Doctor soon fell, the Mexican officers running their swords even through hi* dead body ; and now the undaunt ed Brown was left alone, lie had no other weapons than his gun and pistols, and with these he kilod eight or nine; but it was a great inconvenience that ho had to load while riding. Ho told mo that if he hud only had a sword, ho could have killed 50 or 60 in his flight. At length he gained possession of a lance, which he took from one of the enemy after un arduous struggle, in which ho roceiv •cd Irom the Mexican a severe wound in the arm. Shot afler shot was fired at him, but they touched hitnjnot; thrust after thrust was made at him, with their lances ; but he parried them all; and wo to the temerity of that Mexi can who dared to come into close quarters with him. He threw his pistol in the lace of one who was riding near him, and he thinks it killed him, fur his head seemed to bo split flpen by the force with which it was driven. Others he knocked oft’ their horses with the <iu(t cf his gun. Despair, in short, seemed to have given him strength even more than oirdmay. He expected every moment to die, And be was determined to slay as many of ■them as .possible during the tew moments lie ■survived. Tho Meeieans, finding every effort to kill ■orcapture hits unsuccessful, adopted a plan *o take butt, which common as it may be with (them, caiKjut tut, excite a smile with the A mcrican reader. This plan was to throw overver him a famous rope, the rauriat, which you arc awire they handle with astonishing .dexterity in the chase. With these ropes it hoy at length secured the intrepid Brown; hut the merciless cowards continued, even af ter he was tied,to annoy him with theii lan ces. and would probably have butchered him had out an officer come up aud ordered theiA to spare his life. He was taken to Mutamoras and aiming •other hardships h« was ordered to sweep the streets oft ecily. When ho t»jk the broom in his hand lie had a violent struggle with his feeling*. After n long deliberation with him self he determined with great reluctance, to submit to the indignity. There were twelve or fifteen Texans, in atf, «t Mataiuorss. With two of these, by the name of McNealy, Mr. Brown concerted a plan of escajie. To effect their purpose, they employed as a guide an Englishman living in the city, to whom they paid a handsome sum. This Englishman at their expense, procured tour good horses, and made ail other prepara tions, and the (our, armed each with a gun and pistol, sallied from the city while the guard was asleep, on the night of the Bih of December. Thus, Mr. Brown was, after n captivity of nearly ten months, again out of their hands, though not without some fears of being again taken. To avoid the guards stationed along the beaten track, they kept up the Rio Grande, without crossing. At ato in 150 miles from Matamiraslhe guide wished to cull on one or two trusty acquaintances. They passed • tills town in the night, the prisoners hurrying on, and the guide overtaking them a short distunes beyond the town. Thirty miles a bove thi* place they determined to cross the river. Here they wore overtaken by a rider who had been despatched by their friends at the town they Had passed through, informing them that two hundred Mexicans had arrived nt the town in pursuit of them, and were mak- j ing inquiries respecting the Euglisnman. The poor fugitives peceived the dreadful necessity of crossing without delay, but they almost de spaired of effecting it. The current was etrong, the wind blowing fresh, the waves high, and there was no boat. True, there was a canoe on the opposite bank, and it seemed like certain death to attempt to -swim to it, for besides all other difficulties, it was exceedingly cold, below (reeling point, Mr. Brown was the only one that could swim, and, though a good swimmer, he said if he had had ten thousand dollars, he would have given it all; (lit could have relieved him from the necossity'of attempting the stream. He did attempt it, how. ever, and aflar incredible snuggles, reached the opposite shore two miles below. Having gained the canoe, he found nothing to propel it with but an awkward pole, and as the water was too deep to use Ibis any other way than as a paddle, he was carried down two miles and a half in cross, ing. His companions, together with the horses, ind dropped down to the place of his landing; but. on reaching the shore, he could hold out no longer. He was so benumsd, to fatigued, and 1 suppose to agitated in mind, that he became deaf, turned blaet in the face, and presently became wholly insensible, in whUli situation he remain ed throe hours, in the mean time his comrades placed him in the canoe, and letting the horses swim attached to the canoe, iboy arrived in safety on the eastern bank of the Rio Grande, hoofing iwten doteified sis hour- it. cficetuig this perilous Thej fsre now one hundred and eight milis ruin Mit amor st, kul no nearer to Texts than when they started. They were, however, Ices ap prehensive of I icing taken, and ventured, after » B j While, to kill a beef, of which, I presume, they ft | ate with eonvblerable voracity, for they had fasted ~! four days and four nights, hating eat nothing i-; since their escape.

When 1 see a young gentleman—the son of a r Southern planter—thus leaving the romforla of home—braving the most unequal of contests— submitting to indignities frnm Ilia minions of a tyrant —and risking his life in many instances to save his comrades and when I see him still roa ' dy, as he now is, lo march at the first intelligence e ot an invasion—when I see all this, and sec il too * adorned with so much genuine modesty as Mr. B.

N. i- From the National Intelligencer April! * Tho Hon. Abbot Lawrisncb, lain Repre -1 senteiue in Congress from the city of Boston, * i having recivnrl on invitation to a public din b 1 nor from » number of hi* constituents, in les j I tummy of respect for hm character and public services, has declined the honor tendered to ' I him in the following letter: Boston March 25,1637. ‘ | Gentlemen: Your letter ofihe 22d inst. 1 I received last evening inviting mo in behalf * ol a number of my late constituent*, to accept T of a public dinner, which you have been pleas ed to say is tendered lo me as a testimony of r respect for my private, and an approval ot my 1 public character. > This unexpected demonstration of esteem and confidence, coming from those, with ma ! ny of whom 1 have been associated for year*, ' oven from ihr day that I first entered this city, ■ a poor unknown and friendless boy, fills nm ' with the deepest sensibility, and demands.my 1 most grateful and profound acknowledgments. r When 1 accepted tho high and important trust of representing this district in Congress, I well knew tho responsibility I had assumed, and did not. take it upon myself without much solicitude, distrusting my ability to fulfil tho 1 resonablo expectations of my friends. 1 1 felt that great indulgence would be ex tended to mo in consequence of my entire want of experience, never having before been a member of a 4 logislativo body; hut Icmild not forget tho distinguished individuals who had ' preceded me, all ol’lhetn eminent for their tal ents, acquirements, and practical information. 1 These considerations increased the weght ! of responsibility which already oppressed 1 me; I took my seat in Congress with a full ‘ knowledge jof my deficiencies, but with a : feeling of patriotic devotion lo the public in -1 (crests, which I fondly hoped would sustain me,not only in tho House, but with my consti tuents and the country. If tho trust confided tome by the people of this district has been discharged to their satisfaction, it is the highest reward than can be conferred upon me. In tho discharge of my public duties, il has been my fate to entertain opinions differing from those of tho lute Executive and a major ity of Congresss, and in speaking of some of the measures of the late Administration, I beg 1 to he understood as meaning no personal disre spect to General Jackson or any other indi vidual; ! shall.brieflylcommont.upon measures, and not men. ! 1 have always kept in view in legislation those principles which would carry home lo 1 the many the greatest amount of prosperity 1 and happiness, believing that tho few can ■ always take care of themselves. Who are : tho many? Are they not the farmers, meeha nics, traders, and laborers I And who, arc the 1 few? Are they not the money holders and the > money lenders of the country’ The latter 1 class can transfer their persons and properly lo any given place in or out of tho country, having the means always about them to do so. It. is’ncL the case with the former class ; a farmer can not remove his farm nor the me chanic his shop; Ihe wealth of the country is founded in its labor, and, In giving security to the labor, we protect the property of tho whole country. A system o( measures has been recom mended by the late Executive, and some of them adopted, which are now in a course of development, that will tend to place an undue proportion of the propeily of tho country in the hands of overgown capitalists, at the ex pense ofllie oilier classes of society. The present slate of the currency is a per fect illustration of this position, and tho que<- Hon now is, what liavo been tho causes of its deranged state throughout the Union Thera are d.fferent opinions in regard to tho causes, but no.’o gs to the effects. Tho most re&sonsable explanation may perhaps bo found in a senes of measures, commencing with Gen. Jackson’s veto of the charter ot tho Bank of tho United Slates in followed by a removal of tho public money in I83;i. . , „ , The moment t.'.o charter of tho Bank oftho United Slates wa& vetoed, an expecta tion prevailed that it would ho I'ircea to wind up its concerns on the 4th of March, 1930 ; and a large number of banks were chartered in several of the Stales. In October 1833, the public deposits were removed, alu * placed, if my memory serves me, as soon a* 5 it could conveniently be done, in thirty-six banks, over which the Government had not the least control, and all acting independently of each other. Wlnle they remained in the Bank of the United Slates, they were employed through out the country for legitimate commercial pur poses; but when they were placed in these thirty-six independent institutions, a large 1 amount ofllie Government money took a new ' direction; it was completely withdrawn from ' the regular channels of trade, causing a great ' scarcity, which stimulated the chartering by the States of more banks in 1831. This, to | gether with an intimation from the Executive ; tout we must have a metallic currency .caused heavy loans to be negotiated abroad by some of the doposite banks, and specie was brought I into the country from England and elsewhere, I when it is believed that we were indebted largely to Europe. The new banks made largo issues of paper, (notwithstanding the metallic currency,) the 1 prices of every thing that is bought anil sold 1 continued to rise, aud in 1835 and 1836 more banks wore chartered, and some very largo ones, by the Stales ; State loans to a great amount were negotiated in Europe ; private I credit pledged for money abroad, to an unex ■ an)|.lcd extent; bills drawn on one banker to pay anotlior, till England has become surfeit- ( ed with American securities, both public and , private. During Hie last two or thiee years „ the public lands have attracted particular at- , i tuuiioiq between twenty and thirty millions • of dollars wore realized from this source alone ] * the last year; the internal improvements i . ofllie country have gone forward with ast-in- ' ! ishing rapidity ; the produce oftho soil, lands, i 1 merchandise, in fact, every thing, has in- . creased in value; fortune attar fortune lias < been made without physical or mental'labor ; i thousand of persons have left their regular occupations to trade m something, and iner- - chants, lawyers, doctors, judges, and legisla- 1 tors, have joined in the pursuit of weal,ln < General Jacks hi promised us a better cur- 1 j reucy when he destroyed the United States 1 Bank and sternly refused to give us another, | I When that institution was in full operation, i I we had a currency equal loany the world ev- jl •! cr witnessed ; its notes were at par in every ' 1 part of the United States and in Canada and 1 ' Nova Scotia. Money could be placed in 1 Nsw Orleans by persons residing in the At- I (antic States at less than Ihe cost of insurance, ! ami there was no transporting of specie from , 1 one end of the continent to the other, in com- ! J inon commercial transactions. What do we i see now 1 The public money deposited in i rigMy six Stale bunks; an increase of hank j capital since Gen. Jackson’s veto of the Bank , . o' the U 8. of not less than two hundred and ' fifty millions ol dollars, and an increase of bank notes m circulation of not less than J eighty millions of dollars. It is said the busi ness of the country has increased. We all , know there is a great increase of population, I sod. consequently, of business; but, has the . legitimate business increased in proportion to i the increase of bank capital and circulation I i lias not the business been stimulated and - carried far beyond it* natural growth by the s aliment received from this eighty millions of > paper ! We know what our condition was • four years ago; perhaps it would be well to » inquire what it is now. We have near one 1 hundred doposite banks, (acting without con cert,) in which there must be at this time lo the credit of the Treasurer of the United States, and the disbursing officers of tho Gov ernment, about fifty millions of dollars ; we - have an increase of.State bank paper of eighty , Billions of dollar*—an expansion which is ■ unnatural, and over which the General Gov • eminent has no control. : The inequality of tho currency is made ma -1 nifost by lha demands of gold and silver in some sections of the country for public dues, while in others papers received in payment. Wo arc largely indebted to Great Britain, I Iho produce of our country falling in price t abroad and at home, our exchanges all in dis order, confidence impaired, and a probability of considerable shipments of specie to pay ibe balance* we owe abroad. The day of contraction has arrived, and a revolution is to take place in the business of tbe country. The causes of the groat speculations in lands, and the overtrading in other brandies of business, may be attributed lo tho immo derate expansion of banks notes, and the for cing of specie into tho country contrary to natural laws that govern trade. It has been shown that ibis increase of bank capita! and bank paper was produced by the action oftho Executive and by legislation. The promised currency has never been realized, and that class of persons who were assured by Gene ral Jackson that they should derive important advantages by his new system arc to be suf ferers. There is one class of men who have been, and are gathering a golden harvest from his experiments upon the currency; that, |ts, the money lenders—the great capitalists of tho country—the persons against whom these measures were principally directed. The equality which was to be produced has not taken place. On tho other hand, human in genuity could not have devised a scheme bet tor calculated to satisfy the appetite of avarice than the one now in operation. The labor of tho country is eventually to suffer from the determination of the Executive to carry into effect this experiment upon the currency. It is the many, and not the few, who arc to suf fer. Time has revealed to us but a small part oftho effects ofllie quackery which has boon inflicted upon us by an interference with one of the most difficult ami delicate subjects that can be touched by the Executive hand. We have twenty-six independent sovereign ties, all having the power to create banks, and those banks have power to issue notes, uncon trolled by the General Government. How long such a system can nr will be continued must be left with the People to decide. CHRONICLE AND SENTINEL. AUGUSTA. Thursday Kvciiiiiß, April. J 3 1837.

SiNcvtan Game.—A feat unparalleled in the annals of chess playing has just been accomplish ed by that Napoleon of the chess- board, M. de Lahourdonnics, who soma lime since beat the celebrated player, M. dc Jouy, with his back turn ed to the board. In tha match to which wc now allude, lie has beaten two well known and excel lent players, M. DonGI, and M. Lccricain. who played their games at the sarno limes on two different hoards, M. de Lahourdonuais keeping his hack turned to them during the whole of the play, and directing his moves merely from memo ry and calculation. The billiard room in which the games were played at the Chess Club.

Hut it is nevertheless a very gloomy day, and when it will be better is more than wo can foretell. When things are at tho worst, how ever, any change must he for tho better. This paper will go to press before tho results of the day can be known. It is hoped that it will close less disastrously than tho last throe days have done. The number of failurea, commencing with the Josephs, down to this morning, was eighty eight. No doubt exists that the list will be ex tended. Tho packet ship Independence, which was to sail this morning, for Liverpool, is detained until Monday, at tho request of the merchants, to ena ble them to arrange their remittances. The ob ject wo believe, is to obtain a farther supply of pa per for ngnittancc from the Bank of tho United Stales, to prevent the exportation of specie. Messrs. S. & M. Allen have not suspended payment, in the proper signification of the term. Their own paper will be paid, but their stock en gagements have necessarily been deferred. Ad vices from the South are most discouraging. Tha calamities in that quarter, have greatly aided the measures of the government in bringing destruc tion upon tho merchants of New York.

Stocks continue to fall—failures to take place— and commercial securities to he less and less ne gotiable. Yesterday a largo exchange house stopped on its stock contracts, but continued its operations in its exchange business. Wo allude to S. &M. Allen, largely engaged in monied operations. On the day before, the house of St. John & 00., large dealers in southern exchanges stopped, to which fact we alluded yesterday. It is staled that they were only deficient on that day, a beggarly S3OOO, which any friend could have made up, but looking ahead, they saw in surmountable difficulties before them, and hence they thought it was the best way to come down at once. At this moment they have # 150,000 in specie, on its may here from the south, hut it was not within their reach. Their liabilities aie estimated at nearly the same amount as those es tha Josephs—say five millions—probably they ntay be three or four millions, with assets, too, showing a surplus of more than a million. But commercial securities, at this crisis, are of no avail. There is not near so much sympathy for the house of St. John, as these was developed for tho house of Joseph. This arises from the recollec tion that Beers & St. John,during tho years 1833 and ’34, were counsellors and agents of the gov ernment, in creating the first disturbances in the money market by tho abrupt removal of tho de posits. These, and such as these, are reaping the fruits of their wise counsels. The failure ot St. John & Co. carried with it twelve or fifteen bouses in Pearl street and the neighborhood. Wo do not publish the names out°of delicacy to their larceraled feelings. This hoJrsc was engaged in similar business to that of the Josephs. They dealt largely in the southern exchanges, and once prpfcssad to be able to reg ulate them Without a National bank. A great many old houses in Pearl street, who did not burn with confidence towards tho Josephs, made them agents in the collection of southern noles. This business by this and lire other failures is now neatly broken up. The number of failures that have taken place since the present crisis began is estimated as fol -5* Foreign and Exchange brokers, 9 UOOOOOO ’til DiV Goods Jobbers, 1a,000,000 in Pi mt. 'lesion Shoe and Clothing Houses, 7,000,000 •28 IlTfs late Speculators, 30,000,000 28 Real fca V 1,000,000 ? 5f? ck i P rOK o ’ 3,500,000 6 Muccllancou. 3 t 1 93 aggregate lor Now York, 860,500,000 This estimate is taten Horn full lists ol every failure by name which are kept in almost every private office in Wall Street, and almost by eve ry private individual. It shows in a remarkable degree the extent of the calamity, and the pro gross of the disorder only for Now York. We have not enumerated tho caaes m New Orleans, in Philadelphia, in Richmond, in Mobile, in But falo, or elsewhere, the accounts ol which arc com ing to us by every mail. * The first blow wa* struck by the failure of the great cotton houses in New Oilcans. This car ried away the Josephs—and the Josephs took with them a large poilion of the dry goods and commission dealers. Then came the excitement and the relief, as it was called, from the United States Bank, which appears only to have given us case for a week or ten days—hardly so long. With the present week the revolution again made a fresh start, and since Monday probably two thirds of the above failures took place, During the whole week stocks have steadily declined from two to five par cent per day. Yesterday the U. S. Bank stood firm, but U. 8. Bank post notes were selling at one per cent above tho nominal par, which is equivalent to two and a half per ct. per mouth. Commoicisl paper is unsaleable, os usual. Fancy stocks are ten or twenty per cent lower than ever they were. State Bank fell six per cent at a single bound—being now quoted at 91. The large stock brokers are heavy lasers by the reaction in the stock market —the loafers, droll enough, arc the gainers. During the week, probably 450 notes lay over and have been pro tested at the different banks. In the bank note circulation of other states,there is yet a little doing. Several brokers and agents advertise to redeem eastern and western paper i money —but the quantity in circulation is not large. Probably there is not $1,000,000 of New ! England hills in this neighborhood, i Such is the history of yesterday. Now in this . condition, is there any prospect of a change I Wc will state the whole truth. There are three | classes of opinions. Ist. One class are confident i that we have seen the worst, and that from this . week forward commercial affairs will mend.— ] They believe that the disorder has seen its worst, t and that 150 failures throughout the country em ’ bracing $100,000,000, will be more likely to re lieve the pressure than a financial measure of $5, , 000,000 by Mr. Biddle. A 2d class state that ' wc have yetlo hear from England. They argue e that the worst is yet to come. The vibrations , between New Y ork and New Orleans produced the present crisis. When they heard in New t Orleans of the situation of New York, and in New Yoik of the situation of New Oilcans, the 5 fury of the disorder increased in both cities.— Now the question is, will a similar result follow T in England when they hear of the recent even ts p here I If the American houses in England can stand the accounts going out to them from this 1 country, the crisis may have passed—if they can , not stand it, we shall have fresh scenes of disas tar in June. A3d class arc of opinion that the ’ action of the dislribution law which has partly helped on the present crisis, will produce a simi j lar effect in July, when preparation* have t to be made to pay the third instalment to the states. Thus we go. But wcmuch fear there is yet difficulty before us. Men are beginning to think that either the whole commercial interest must (fail and suspend business—or the whole banking interest stop specie payments. During the last two days, the propriety of a general sus . pension of specie payments is actually agued, and ( gravaly argued too,in the slreet.gOn this point wc , dread to speak out what we hear. Il is certain that since 1812, such a herricane has not swept ] over tommerce of the United Slates, we shall . wait for the events of to day, before enlarging on , a new and important view of the present crisis. From tire New York Herald, s MONEY MARKET. ! Sunday, April 9—l o’clock, P. M. The money market on Saturday continued in r the same unsettled, excitable condition. The ? high fever of the middle of tho week has subsided I into something like “patience on a monument, smiling at grief.” A considerable amount of foreign remittances were made for the packets which sail tomorrow—but there yet remains a 1 deficiency of several millions due abroad. Proba ! bly the whole amount icmilled did not exceed f two millions of all kinds of bills, Canadian bills ! on England arc now coming into the market, at v high prices. The times of 1813 are about revr -3 ving. Tho United States Bank, Morris Canal, e Manhattan and Bank of America, have all issued 0 securities to lake the place of the southern and 0 foreign exchange. Probably this movement will save a million of specie for the present. All these ' post notes are sold at reasonable rates, except the • Morris Canal, which does not command much confidence in the market. > In the stock market, the fluctuations were re -1 markable. Several city ba.,k stocks have fallen ■ terribly during the week, and on Saturday they ■ stood us low as over, while several of the wtelch ■ ed fancy stocks rose Iroin 3to 5 per cent. The 1 Phoenix Bank stock a few months ago sold for 134—it is now down to par, or nearly; Stale I Bank from 112 to 94 ; and Manhslten Bank, also • down. The fall in the bank slocks arises from • the probable apprehension of losses by the recent ■ failures. It is supposed that the Slate and Phce -8 nix Bank will suffer deeply in southern oxchan > ges returned, These two banks charged the ter ■ rible high and ruinous rales of exchange on the south, and few pity their losses. By these fai -1 lures probably $56(1,000, or more, have been lost ? to our banking institutions concerned in southern • exchanges. j New Orleans True American, April 8. We have had another failurejfor a largo amount. C The storm has not yet blown over. Report says that tho Liverpool deputation has obtained a loan I from the Bank of England of one and a half mil lion sterling on condition of replacing it in spe cie from America in 90 days. If this be true, New York will be left in a bad way. A sudden drain at this moment would be sure to suspend specie payments. Exchange being at 112 looks • a little squally. On the other hand some distrust • is beginning to be manifested by some of the ■ banks here towards each other. Tho only way ! for the institutions of the city to keep up confi -8 deuce is to sustain each other and do the paper s of solvent people. It is utterly in vain to attempt 1 bolstering up the monopolists. This, they will ■ find out, il they persist. Money is becoming more 3 difficult to get every day, and as this difficulty in -1 creases, prices must go down. t Wc hear of a sale of 3348 bales of Louisiana 1 prime cotton at 18 1-2 cents on a long lime. Some - other sale have transpired—but mostly small and i at extremely low rales. t —— , From the New OrUans Bee, April 8. REMARKS. Affairs in general wear a very gloomy aspect, them ' seems to be a general want of confidence; business f in every branch is extremely limited, the sales which r are made continue to he in small quantities, and (or , immediate wants, there are purchasers in market, ; both for their own account, and for orders, hut the want of confidence is so great, together with the dif ficulty of negotiating paperof any kind, that holders arc unwi'ling to dispose of propeity excepting lor 3 cash. It is said that the banka have come to a reso i jution to call in hut 10 per cent, of their loans, and it . is thought by some, that things will not remain in sa j bad a siate much longer. On Wednesday advices were received from Liv erpool and Havre to the 4th of J/arcli. There ap -1 pears to he a further decline in the price of cotton m ■ Liverpool of id, and the market very unsettled.— ’, Tho Havre market was very inanimate, and in no demand except for immediate wants of manufac- I lure. The tranactions as far as has como to ottr knowl edge, amount to 11,432, which are as follows, to • wit; 118 Miss, at 111 cts; 41 at 101;9a 91; 373 a9l i 1228 a9; 900 a 8j; 902 a 84; 317 a8; 1109 prices f not transpired; 62 Louisiana at 81; 4174 prices not , transpired; 896 I'enn. a 8; 635 Alabama, 66 W. . District, prices not transpired; 485 Mobile a9S; 137 , a 121. We have not heard of any sales under 71 cents, and those were probably among those of which wo could not ascertain the price. tOUHERCIAL.

By auction, 507 hags Java, damaged, 71 a 81 cts per lb cash. Cotton—During the past three days, the transac tions have been generally at a farther reduction in prices. The decline, however, may be noticed as applying most particularly to the lower and medium ‘ qualities, the best description being more firmly held ; the sales have included 300 bales Florida at 11a 141) 230 Mobile, 12 a 14; and 100 Uplands at 11 a 131 c.; forming a total for the week of f ully 1750 bales.

Flour mid Mtal —The Flout market continues ex tremely inactive, and the sales of most descriptions are so trifling as not to require detail. Wc farther reduce our quotations for all kinds ; 500 bis. Ohio, via New Orleans, sold at $3 a 9,25. Rye Flour has declined largely ; a sale of 100 bis. Albany inspect ed, was made yesterday at $5. cash. The market is heavy for Corn Meal, and we reduce our rales Provisions. —The demand for Reef and Pork continues very limited, the sales being confined to small parcels for ship stores and city use. Beef has not varied ; but Pork, in consequence of large sup plies, which have arrived, and are shortly expected lias farther declined in value. Wo reduce Mess to 820 a 21,50; and Prime, sl7 a 18. The receipts of Western Lard, via New Orleans, have been exce sively heavy, and the price has declined still farther; we quote 9 a 11 cents, embracing all descriptions, we reduce our rate for Goshen Butter. Hams are dull; and plenty at 12 a 13 cents ; sales of Bacon sides at 12; and smoked Beef Hi al2 cents. The latter article is scarce. ITKarinc Intelligence.
