The talk tv that tbe Yankee* were frightened over - much ; that they took tbe alarm needlessly ; that there waa really no cause for it; that no doubt there J had been much improvident dealing with the “Far Weit,” kc.; that they knew the alarm in America would aoon subside ; that a prevalent discount of 10 per cent, and in some cases of *2U percent., would entica capitalists into the maritet, that, at such rales, money is never scarce ; that its appearance in quantity naturally cheapens the rate, and the smaii eat decune has so much encouragement in it, that confidence is at once invited to return; that one consequence of this conviction was the resolution of the large houses here not to send K° America by either the Baltic or tbe Persia; that the next news from America being favorable, ar no donbt it will be, things will take their natural course, and that people will laugh at the absurd report of a further advance at the Bank to 8 per oent The disposition to look at IkrngJ favorably B ten couraged by the fixed opinion that the rebellion in iSuVeirtuSy over, that there is sufotantmliy nothing now to fear, either politically or . oiallju The talk wae, that tbe panic in America has operated curiously on the notion spinners ; that thev°are silly enough to suppose that the money Iruti in New Yorifand iW.lptiiawiU cheapen Cotton that they seem to thing the article will, by and-by be reduced to the voc .1 value of an old somr that. In consequence, they have apparently, withdrawn from the market; that the Bates these few days have been only sufficient to Indicate that a broker Is something more on the Flags than an archseolgioal specimen of humanity; that althougt those who think must govern those who toil ana spin, the thinking faculty i* not at present predomi nant In the manufacturing districts ; that, 11 8 were thoee who poeeess it would buy now, oaths-safe oaleel.ti.in that, in the absence of buyers, bargains at the Bank for discounts had con tinued P yery heavy, but nevertheless the tone of TZI Zd mo/ey market was * * than at the departure of the Baltic, the user was r,aviinr dividends to the extent of six millions steri mg wnich afforded some relief.

At Dma pore a party of the Queen’s 10th broke ut at night and bayoneted in their beds eleven Hepovu—a por tion of those who had remained faithful to tlieir 9a it—and two women; there is no doubt they would have murdered the w hole of them, but the shrieks and groans of their viotima raited an alarm, and the butchery was stopped An inquiry into the matter has ended very unsatisfactorily. In a general order. Gen. Outrarn has declared it cer tain that the murderers were of the 10th, but tbe evidence as to the actual parties was bo unsatisfac tory that no one has been convicted. Thtß is not all—Gen. Wilson, commanding before Delhi, has intimated his knowledge of many murders haviug been committed npon camp followers and other in nocent persons by men belonging to this force, and his full dete-mination to carry out the sentence of anv court martial that may come before him. At Mfrow a party of European artillerymen have plun dered the treasury, and committed other atrocities of which we have not tbe details. All this is very bad, and will not be put a stop to until some signal example* are made.

TkkmKKDoutf i xrLoeion akdLomof ONE 1 HOC'- SAND Lives—We have been favored (says the Sclndlan of August 16) with the following transla tion of a Persian letter received from Joudpcre, about the explosion of the magazine at that place : “On the night of the Kith August, between the hours of 12 and a heavy rain fell, accompanied with loud peals of thunder and vivid flashes of lighlutng, imparting to everything around a ghastly speotacle terrifying to behold. A few minutes after, the scene was repeated with tenfold violence, and the people were greatly intimidated. In the fort bo longing to the Riyah, whioh is situated on a hill, constructed of stones of various dimensions and sizes, and oontalng a passage subterraneous, the magazine of the Rajah bad been kept. This wae struck with lightning, and some thousands of pounds of powder were exploded. The shock was so great that the walls of the fort and a temple and four ponderous gates were blown up in the air into a thousand pieces, destroying 500 houses and all the people living therein. Up to the time of writing, the remnants of the in habitant* were engaged In removing the dead bodies found nnder these ruins. It was gleaned from the Kotwal of the place that upward of (1,000) one thousand had already been taken out, and that others were also being removed. .The domestic servants of the Bajah. as well os some Sepoys who were kept to guard the place, were all killed. Such a dreadful oocuirence was never known in Joud pore before. The majority of Ihe people were de stroyed and otherwise Injured. A stone weighing one tnaund was picked up at Soorsunuggnr Talao, distant four miles Irom Joudpore, where the polite cal agent resides. Another large stone fell as far as six miles, at a place called Chowpassaney, where falling on a bouse, it killed three people. The ex plosion was so severe, that for rix miles around the people and houses sustained a shock.” Thb American Horses in England.—We an nounced on Thursday tbe winning of a second race In England by an American horse, Mr. Ten Broet k’s Belle, having won th Bedford Stakes at Newmar ket, on the 11th Inst In regard to the Oesarewiteb triumph and tbe future operation of American Lorres on the English turf, we copy the following paragraphs from Porter's Spirit of the Times: There are now but two event* in which our horses are to figure, before the English racing season doses; and those are, the Cambridgeshire Handi cap, to be run at Newmarket on the 27th October, (Tuesday last.) and the Autumn Cun Handicap, to be run at Liverpool on the 10th November. In both of these Pryor and his associate were entered; but he having been withdrawn, through deficiency of condition, Prioress and Babylon must contend for them together. Both are favorably weighted: and, for the first time, the marc now standi the first in public favor. We look, therefore, for the contest of Ihe 27th W!tb*the deepest interest, and should Prioress or Babylon carry off tbe prize, or capture the Autumn Cup, at the Liverpool Meeting, the ex ploit would be equal to any triumph that ever graced an English racing year. The victory in Cesatewitch, however, carries ns through our campaign with honor; and reposing up on that, we will endeavor to present ourselves, du ring the coming year, in suoh numbers nud condi tion as will Insure us the respect which we failed to command through most of this. As everybody is axloua to know whether Mr. Ten Broeck made himself whole by his winnings in the Ceearewitoh, for the sipeuses and losses of his spir ited *nterprlse, we will s’ate that we have reliable . information that he bet very largely on the result, [ and that he not only reimburses himself for nil his outlays and mishaps, bHt Is largely in excess. With , out any special Information on the subject, how ever, sill who know Mr. Ten Broeck would be suie . of this result He bad lost the whole season through, and tie Newmarket meeting afforded him [ Lis last and only ehanco for the season to get oven. The withdrawal of Prvor, also, made it still thorn n*- 1 cessary that he should not let slip the only opportu nity within his reach to redeem his unfortunate cam i paign. ruder such circumstances, a man with no more pluck than a rabbit wonld feel bound !o bet I with spirit, while a game man like Mr Ten Broeck would be sore to go a good length. The weights suited him ; the mare was In fine condition ; and all we have to add is, that if he laid out a bare oue thou sand pounds ot the odds, he stands winner to the tune of half a million of dollars. Although a great many have been laughing at him hers, he Is now laughing at them in tne right time. As there Is much anxiety afloat as to whether Mr. Ten Broeck won one si e of his great oue hundred thousand dollar bet bv the victory of Prioress on the 13th October, we will state that be ioet it by the withdrawal of Pryor from that race. The bet was made with Mr. T. B. by Mr. Davies, oommonly knowu as the Leviathan, from his immense wagers, and was to this effeot, to wit < Mr. Davies bet Mr. Ten Broeck one hundred thousand dollars against one buudrod dollars that Pryor wonld not win the Ceearewitoh stakes end Prioress ths Cambridge shire, and the same bet over again that Pryor aid not win the first and Babylon the second. This vir tually was but one bet, and as the Cesarewltch de fended in both cases upon Pryor, it became really a bet of SIOO,OOO to S2OO. Pryor not having run the result is that Mr. Ten Broeck has been called upon to pay Mr. Davies S2OO. Tbe Potato Crop in Europe —By the Board of Trade returns we find that, during the sii years from 1851 to 1856, inclusive, ws have imported of wheat and floui as wheat 38,622,873 quarters, or an average of 4,770,410 quarters per year. With an average crop, therefore, we shall still want an im ported amount of nearly five million quarters, ee e cially when we take into account the loss of the potato crop, which we fear is too well established to admit of a donbt. The last three weeks, indeed, the disease has assumed a virulence equal in de structiveness to that of the worst period of its pre valence ; and this extends not only to every part of the United Kingdom, but to France and a conside rable part of the European continent. In France the alarm created by it has led the Govern i ent of that oountry to prohibit the export of grain until September, 1858. The extent, indeed, to whioh that root is cultivated there (from two and a half to three million acre*) renders the loss a serious na tional calamity, as it forms the cLitf food ot the peasantry, as was the case in Ireland previous to tbe famine. Notwithstanding, therefore, that the crop of wheat in France is above an average, the loss of the potato and a deficient crop of maize, will prevent our receivirg that supply from thence whioh we had calculated on. • \ • The following is the summary of imports Into Great Britain tor the ceming reason, as estimated in the foregoing statement • Qrs.

Van VHet4aw end Heard, Fort Laramie, N.T , Sept. 28 1857.—Capt. Van Vliet, a member of of Gen. Harney s staff, arrived at this poet yesterday morning, on hie way to the States from Great Salt Lake City. He wae de tached by the General, at the beginning of August, to proceed to Utah, to gather necessary information concerning the disposition of the inhabitants, the geography of the routes to tbe Territory, the condi tion of the crops, &c , and to report to headquar ters He returns with news which, perhaps, justi fies inter‘nee* that the Utah complication will pre sent in history the most prominent feature of the administration of Mr. Buchanan. The expression of a determination to resist the entrance ot the newly appointed officials, and of the United States armv into Utah, is unanimous among the pe pie ot the ‘Territory. You are probably aware already of the result of his mission, for a courier, bearing despatches to the headquarters of the P ‘ ceded his amvQ here oDe day, reached th s poe the evening of Saturday, the J6th, and deputing the eame night.

Ad offi ial dinner was given in hie honor by HeberC. Kimball, and he bad daily inter views with Brigham T oung and the other dignita ries of the Mormon Church. Tpeir expressed determination from nnt to laat was Ibis —to refciat at all taxardfl the mgreet of the troops tbia autumn. When they were reminded of the certainty that incase their resistance one .year should be etfectu&l a force would be dispatched to Utah the next against which twice their population in arms would Btrive in vain to close tbe passes, they replied that they bad considered ail that, and that when auch a foice had etormed those passes, they would euter a valley in which not one shrub would be green nor one stone remain upon anoth er. They took pains to show him their garden? and vineyards, their harvest, bares, houses and live etock, and to conUaet their present prosperity with such a scene of desolation. Thtir object now they said wae to gain time to enable the National Gov ernment to retrace ita steps, and they intend to pre *ent then case to through the.r delegate, Dr. Bernhiael, who accompanied Capt. \an V .let on )ia departure and is now in bts camp. It was at one period hia determination not| to proceed to Washington the winter, but that was reconsid- Tliey said that they would regard the entrauoe of the troops as tbe beginning ot a iepetitiouof their sufferings at Kirtiaud, Independence andNauvoo ; ihat they had learned a lesson from experience, and would now meet aggression at the dtart, and resist the wedge before it should enter the wood ; if they could not keep the troope out this year they would sacrifice all for their religion, take to the mountains and fight a war of glory and extermination. Brigham Young remarked repeatedly that this was tue most glorious era of his faith, and that a happier day nev er dawned on Moruionism than that on which tae advance of the troops was ordered, for the more Lis church was persecuted the more it would thrive. On Sunday, September 13, Capt. Van let wae aked to attend religious services in tne Bowery, and was escorted to a prominent seat upon the p at furm and invited to make an address, which invi tation he declined. By counting the cumber ol per sons upon certain tiers of benches he estimated the audience to exceed 4,500. AfU-r some remarks by Heber C Kimball, a discourse was delivered by El der John Taylor, formerly editor of The Mormon, the newspaper organ cf the church in New York city. At the close Mr. Taylor called the attention of tbe people to the Captain, and alluded to hia bu siness in the city, recounted the substance of his conversations, and said that be would make a re quest in order that Capt. Van Vliet might learn that he Lad been made acquainted with the determina tion of the whole people; he wonld ask that all those present who were willing to raze their houses, burn their croptf, pull down what they had passed ten years in bui'ding up, make their beautiful va’ley a desert, and to the mountains, in cae the troops should force an ectrace, would rise ; and the audience, without exception, rose to their feet, and remained standing long enough to enable him to *ee that they were absolutely unanimous. During the previous proceedings, in order to an swer practically an inquiry by the captain coroern ing ihe proportion of foreigners present to native born and naturalized citizens, Mr. Taylor requested ail present who belonged to the two latter Classes to raise their hands, and about three fourths of tbe au dience complied. The ■Captain confirms *he fact of the concentra tion of the population of Utah in Salt Leke Valley by tin* abandonment of the remote settlements, and he estimates the force the Mormons can set in the field at net ween five and six thousand. They have abandoned the cobble stone fortification at Fort Bridger, a description of which I sent to you from Fort Kearney, as it wae given to me by a party of Californians, and the men employed there have fal len back twenty miles to a redoubt called Fort Snp ply. Uti was also given to understand that they in tend to recall their missionaries from tbe States, but not from foreign countries. With regard to divisions in the Mormon commu nity, he eatisfied himself that there does indeed ex ist iu certain quarters a dislike of tbe present au thorities of the Church, but be is also satisfied that it is in such subjection that nothing less than the presence of a commanding gentile force will enable it to develop itself. A review of about 500 troops of the Nauvoo Legion was held in his presence. The arms and uniforms of the oihcera were homogenous, but the rank and file were as eccentric in equipment as down-east militia in a shirt tail muster. A number of little boys inarched in the companies carrying wooden guns. Capt. \an Vliet states that there is no powder mill, to his knowledge, in tbe territory, although there is manufactory ot fire arms. With regard to provisions, Brigham Young told him that the Mormons had a three years supply on hand to take with them to the mountains. On his return, Capt. Van Vliet paeseu the lOth iulaulry, and Phelps’ battery of artillery on Sept. 21, a few miles east of the South Pass. On the even ing of the same day he passed the sth infant!y and Reno s battery. He reports that there is almost no oihuo between the britlße across the North Fork of’ the Platte, 115 miles from this Fort, ami a point Jtl miles west of Green River, and that there are por tions of the road where the carcass of an ox or a mule iB encountered ut near y every step. President Kimbali. e Discourse.—' The file of the Deseret News up to Sept. 9, dispatched by our correupondent, fully confirms his statements respect ing the rebellious spirit of the Saints. President Kimball, in a discourse delivered on the 3()th of August, holds forth as follows: You all acknowledge Brother Brigham as the President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints; then you aokuowledge him as our Leader, Prophet, Seer aud Reveiator, and then yon acknowledge him in every capacity that pertains to his calling both iu Church and State ; do you not 1 [Voioes—Yes) „ , Well lie is our Governor. What 8 a Governor 7 Ono whoporsides.or governs. Well, now, we have declared in a legislative capacity that we will not have poor, rotten-hearted curses come and rule over us euoh ss some they have been acoustomed to send We drafted a memorial and the Council and tho House of Representatives signed it, and we rent to them the names of men of our own choice, as many as from five to eight meu for each office, men from our own midst, out of whom to appoint otil cers for this Territory. , _ We sent that number for the President of the United States to make a reflection from, and asked him to give us men of our own choice in aooordanee with the rights constitutionally guaranteed to all American citizens. We just told them right up and down that if they sere airy more such miserable curses as some they had eeutivore, we would send them home, and that is one reason why an army, or rather a mob, is on the way here, as reported. Yon did not know the reason Dejfore, did you t Well, we did that in a legislative capacity , we did it as members of the Legislature, as your repre sentatives, and now you have got to back us up.— Yon sent us just as we sen Bro. Bemhisel to seek for our rights and stand in our defence at Washing- ton. . , Wei!, here i* Bro. Brigham, he Ib a man of oui own choice, he is our Governor in the capacity of a Territory, and also as Biint of the Moat High. Well,lt is reported that, tbey have another Gov ernor on the way now, three Judges, a Distriot At torney, a Marshal, a Postmaster ana Secretary, and that they are coming her© with twenty-five hun dred men. The United Statee design to force those officer? upon us by the point of the bayonet. Is not that a funny thing t Vou may think that lam cross, but am laughing at their calamity, and I will “ mock when their tear oometh.” Now, gen.lumen aud ladies, you look at these things, aud then right in this book, the Bible, it says our nobles shall be of ourselves , that is, our Lords, our Judges, cur Governors, our Marshals, and our everything, shall be of ourselves. We are going to have our own Governor hence forth. Brigham Young was then our Governor, llerber C Kimball was Chief J ustioe and Lieu'.en ant Governor. I was a big man then; I felt as big as Bro. Morley does in the Legislature. The fact is, he does not understand their gabble; if he does, he understands more than I do. It is for us to say, according to our rights under the Constitution, whether we will have those cursed Gent leu to rule over us or not. I want you to publish this, Mr. Editor. I am giving you a little of my feelings, for I want you to know that you are under no more obligation to receive those men than Bro. Brigham s family is to r- oeive another man, and to reject him as their husband, their father, their friend and benefactor. I know that wh&t 1 have said has informed many of your minds, and I choose to present my ideas by comparison. I have a 1 ight to say the Gentiles shall never rule over me, although this people might admit of their coming here. I have a right to say also that we snail never be ruled over by them from this day forth while grass grows or water runs; never, no never. [Voices, “Amen.*'] Well, we hare got to sustain these Aniens and we have to sustain these vows. You, ladies, too, will have to do yo r part or back out I told you last Sunday eo arm yourselves, and if vou cannot do it any otiier way sell some of your fine bonnets, fine dresses, and ouy yourselves a good dirk, a pistol or some other instrument of war. Arm your boy* and ann yourselves universally, and that, too, with the weapons of war, for we may be brought to the test to see if we will stand up to the line. I mean jus: what I say. and the people say they will not have any other Governor, and especially any on* that has to come here under arms, for we consider mac any man is a poor damned curse that has to come here under arms to rule over us. These are ipy feelings, aud if anybody votes against it, they are not of us ; but there are four or five but what vote for us. and they are apostates, and will go oveibosrd. There is not a chid but what goee with us in these things. Ween we reject Brother Brigham Young we re ject the bead, but we will not do it, for the body shall dwell together, and we are members of tha’t body, and he shall be our Governor ioat as k*ng as God Almighty will have him to be. Those who are iu favor ot it, raise your right hands. [The vote was unanimous j , Brigham himself ii equally sangu lae, and not leee earsge.

A protest was filed yesterday, signed r y several citizens of that district and sworn to, setting forth that there are not fifty adult white male citizens of the United States residing within the county of MoGee ; that the said county belongs to the Cherokee Indiaoa; that there are no white residents there but traders aud missionaries; that the Indian title has been ex tinguished to no part of the said McGee county, aud that it was specially reserved by the organic act out of the Territory of Kansas and constitutes no part of it, and that any elections held there have t o more effect upon the people of Kansas than have thoee held in Missouri or Arkansas. lam credibly informed that th©'Governor and Secretary will re ject l hese returns. and will give certificates of elec tion to the Free-State members. The following document was designed to be served on Governor Walker and Secretaiy Stanton yester <jflv A deputy of Mr. Butchers, the late Sheriff, called on them to set ■ e the writ, and left a copy.— The Governor politely informed the deputy that his principal's term of efiice expired the day previous, as his successor, Capt.

The Gov ernor looked upon it as a farce, and treated it as such. lie declared he would do his duty and what was right independent of any threats or menaces which might be brought to bear upon him. I understand that 8. J. Jonea ex-sheriff of Doug las county, seDt a challenge to Mr. Stanton yester day. It la thought by some that the parties will meet, though it is to be hoped not. Major Sherman, with his entire command, who has been encamped a mile out of Lawrence for the past few weeks, has been to Lecompton, probablv,to protect the Constitutional Convention. Governor Walker Is quite indisposed. He is stopping with Secretary Station, two miles east of Lecompton. The fatigue and excitement of the last week or two have been too great for him. I am happy to state that last evening he seemed to be improving, and Was confident be would be up again in a day or two. Loss or the Ship Kossuth. —We have been placed in possi ssion of a statement laid before the British Consul at this port, and signed by Alfred Johnson, mete, and David Hewitson, David Thoma son, Peter Gray, James Moars and Charles St. Clair, seamen, of the British ship Kossuth, Capt. Thomas Dawson, which was recently lost on the Bahama Banks. Wo condense the following narra tive of the shipwreck and subsequent adventures of these unfortunate seamen. The Kossuth was a 1 iverpool vessel of 1200 tons register, built at St. Johns, N. 8., in 1830, and owned by Tapscott & Cos., of New York, where she waa insured. She was on her passage to New Or leans, in ballast, from New York, which port she left October 3d. She experienced very heavy weather during the first three days out, in which she lost a portion of her sails. At two o’clock in the morning of tha Bth ult., tha ship struck on the Mauzanilla Reef, aud commenced filling rapidly.— The crew took to the boats, with a soanty supply of provisions and water. The mate and seamen, above ment oned, were ordered to endeavor to reach the Grand Bahama Island, and procure assistance. They pulled in the proper direction until night eame on, when, owing to thick rainy weather, with thunder and lightning, they were unable to read their compass, and lost their ooorse. At day light, they steered in a south erly direction, aud, in the afternoon, reached a low key, where they spent the night. They continued their course on the following day, passing several uninhabited keys, and reached at night fall a small island. On the Uth, they cuts mast and yard from mangroves on the ißland, aud, making a sail from their blankets, sailed S. by E. for two dayß, passing, as before, a few uninhabited keys, from one of which they procured a small quantity of brackish water. On the 13th, despairing of reaching the Grand Bahama, they resolved, the wind being favorable, to sail westerly, and reach, if possible, the main land. This they accomplished early on the 14th, making the coast of Florida. They followed the coast in aN. N. W. direction, until C o'clock in the morning ol the 15th, when they arrived at Cape Ca naveral Light, having subsisted for the last three days on a half biscuit and a pint of water each per day. They were kindly received aud hospitably en tertained by Mr. Mills O. Burnham, nutil tbe 22d, when Mr. Burnham conveyed theca m his. own boat to New Smyrna, where they spent the night with Mr. Sheldon. On the 23d they walked 30 miles, to Enterprise, on the St. John’s liver. Mrs. Brock, at her hotel in Enterprise, kindly receiving aod keep ing them until the steamboat Reliance, Capt. Mc- Donald, took them to I’alatka, where they went on board the steamer Carolina, of this port, Capt. Thos. Surtiß. They arrived at this port on the night of the 30th ult. They speak fecllingly of the kind treatment they everywhere received, and are especially grateful to Capt. Surtis, his oflioers and crew, by whose ge nerosity they were enabled to reach the British Con sulate- What became of the other boats and the ship, tbey have no knowledge.— Charleston Mer fury. , Southern Crockery —The dl6eoveryof “ Cao■ lin ,” the fine clay of which China and Granite Ware Is made, in South Carolina and Georgia, has intro duced, amoDgst us another branch of Industry, likely to prove of great commercial value to us.— As crockery is an artiole if almost univerai con sumption, we may expeot It to become an artiole of extensive exportation. The “Southern Porcelain Manufacturing Compa ny” have a capital of $5t),(!00 and owu a bed of 25 acres of the olay. which is prouounoed to be equal to the foreign. The works are about six m'lles be low Augusta and one aud a half miles from Bath, near the South Carolina Railroad. Thoy have dug downwards some twenty-tour feet without reaching its bottom, and re jard the supply as ample for years to oome. The Company gives employment to Borne 40 persons, and now turn off some SIOO worth of Ware per week, wbioh will be inoreased to SBOO, per week as soon as another kiln id prepared. At present their operations are confined to the manufacture of Pitehbrs, Mugs and Spittoons, but they will make Table Ware in a short time. Their M annfacturea will be sold as low as the same at the North, so that the expense of freight will be saved to the consumer. Labor iu combination with capital Is thus trans forming a mass of worthless earth into a beautiful and useful household article, diversifying our em ployments, adding to our importance and wealth as a Btate, and rendering ns independent of the world for another of the everyday necessities of life. We wißb tiiis Company and all others laooring in the same direction entire success, and hope they and the public will be profited by their enterprise. Our people should feel a pride in sustaining all snch ef forts, where the article is equal in quality and the price the same. — Atlanta American. Foreign Em igrat ion.— ln view of the large number of passengers crowding back to their old homes in Europe by every packet ship, most per sons suppose that the foreign emigration to the United States will be greatly diminished by the news of the hard times here. As the financial and mercantile difficuMes are beginning to be quite as extensive in the old world as here, and the almost cessation of payments and orders for goods for the Ameri an trade will bring the manufacturer* In Great Britain, Ireland and the Continent to a stand, times are likely to be no better there than here, eo far as the operatives are cono rned. In fact, the bard times may augment the emigration instead of diminishing it, for the news of prosperity in the Uni ted States has been so long continued, and has re ceived suob substantial confirmation in the millions of hard cash sent over to parents and friends by poor, but industrious ana thrifty Irish, English and Germans, that wbeu employment ceases in the old world it will be difficult to restrain the pesantry and factory people from emigrating across the ocean. The Irish exodus continued at the latest dates in an extraordinary manner, as was stated in the Lime rick Reporter, which paper remarks, in view of the flight of the laborers, “ prosperous times and hi-fa prices are not keeping them at home.” It was im possible to get farm laborers in that region, while the people were emigrating in ewarrns. which the Reporter speaks of as “ myriads.” The case in Germany is similar. For sometime past the Ham burg emigrant bouses have been everflowing, and ok the packets bound for America sailed with fall cargoes Nearly a thousand arrived at New-York from that port in three ships, and two recent arri vals at thie port brought nearly seven hundred. The majority of these emigrants are irom Hecklenbnrg ann Pommen, and are farmers, bound for the West, with money to buy land.— Balt. Amer. A Gextexarias Discharged from Prison.—Two years ago, Joel ScbooDoven. of Summer Hill, in thie county, was convicted of the crime of arson, and sentenced to the State prison for life. He freely confessed the commission of the crime, and said be was driven to it in consequence of what he consider ed to be persona! injuries, inflicted upon him by a eon in law. and other member* of his family, who were anxious to obtain possession of the valuable property that he owned. Weli, he was released to day, by executive clemency, and we met hio. at the comer of State and Genesee street, comfortably clod aad carrying a pair of heavy new boots in hie band. He said he was “pretty glad to get cut,” though he preferred the State prison to the county houses. He was employed in the “spin shop” in the prison. He is a native of Orange oo . in this State, and served in the war of the revolution and “last war.’ He saw Washington at Newburg and he “fought his battles over again” this morning. When we asked him what his age was, he reffiied,”Young man, I was one hundred years old Fourth of July lost and he tottered away, “homeward bounu.” Think for a moment of ams ’s reaching and passing hie cne hundreth year in a State prison. The sentence of a man o.‘ his years for life, was not, in the or lima ry course of things, a long sentence; to release him was an act of clemency and of justice. The old mac is bole and hearty, and looks as though be might live a soots of}ears yet. — Autmm America* Oct. 17.

Various causes conspired to render the feeling on the etreet unsettled and uncer tain, and hence it is not surprising that the actual transactions have been insignificant. Indeed,. so far as we can learn, they merely comprised* limited sum of Sterling at 92) for suspended Bank notes, a small sum at 90 cash, a little Sight on New York at 5 F cent, discount, with more offering at the same figure, and afrw Francs at t>f 50. The Banks fold ed their arms and oonclnded to do nothing until the receipts of their New York despatches and the Eu ropean news. The market was thus kept in a state of suspense until the publioation of the Baltic’! accounts in our evening edition, the datrs reaching to the I4th inst. from Liverpool. These advices are somewhat mixed. On tbe street the news Wae variously canvassed, but the prevailing impression appeared to b 6 that they might have come better. To our mind the accounts are quite as favorable, and even more so than could have been expected, but tbe lateness of the hour at which they were generally circulated prevented the effect from being well ascertained. Daring the forepart of the morning there was a good deal of goeeip in relation to the meeting of several leading Cotton factors, who had come to gether for the purpose of exchanging not3B on the existing condition of aJ'airs This was magnified into ail sorts of rumors and kept up for awhile, a oerta n degree of excitement until it waa ascertain ed that the meeting waa atriotly private, and con cerned no one but the parties interested. It is needless to re L-t that Money negotiations are entirely out of the question. Asa genera! rule, the very best see untie, vlll command nothing, and many people are of Cc arse sorely pressed The Banks holdout a hope to their customers of being able to do something and by, and it is earnestly to be desired that this period will not be unneces sarily deferred. We understand that the President of one of our largest moneyed institutions has re turned in the Baltic, woli stocked with a valuable addition to his already extensive financial experi ence. This will no c-.ubt be immediately brought into play, and as the gentleman possesses plenty of pluck and a considers ble share of liberality, we ex pect bo will telegraph to the Bank here to go in and buy Sterling. The steamship Tennessee from Vera Cruz, brought $250,000 in Mexioar. silver. The Philadel phia, now due from New York and Havana, is ex pected to bring a large amount. At all events, policies of insurance have been opened on her to the extent of half a million. Considerable quanti ties of gold have been ordered out on the Black Warrior, which leaves New York to-morrow, and we hear some well informed people estimate the amount likely to come on her at a million of dollars. All this is good news, and shows that we shall soon have the material to commence something of a move. The receipts of Cotton are falling off materially, and the advices from the country lead us to appre hend that such will continue to be the caße for a while. This is a bad feature. Il Ihe meanwhile, the crop is progressing finely—nobody appesrs to care about this point—and if frost should hold off until the sth of next month the yield will be laifce. Later from Yucatan. —Progress of the Indi an and Political Wars —Our regular mail at baud this morning brings us full particulars of the unhap py difficulties in the Mexican Peninsula. Dates are to the 29th ult. from Laguna; to the 2l>th from Cam peachy. The whole coast and adjacent, islands still adhered to the rovolutienmy party, aad oo far wore quiet, but they were being drained of men and au’.i stance by the war, w hich raged with the utmost fu ry in the interior. The dreadful:laughter of the in habitants of tbe town of Tek&s is fully confirmed) and is estimated by some writers at 600. It see us the necessities of the political war had reduced the garrison to a very feeble force, seeing which the Indian barbarians rose, en masse, descended upon tne town, and after berbarously massacreing ail who ohanced not to escape, reveled therein, drunk with wine aud mad with the blood of their victims, for the period of 28 days, when only they were driven out at the edge of the sword. As to the progress of the political war, we read of the movement of troops on both sides and of sever al engagements with small slaughter, but nothing was. at latest dates, decided. The ultimate tri umph of the revolutionists however seems probable ana with their brightening prospects they begin to talk more aud more of secession from the confeder acy. The total army, marching in different detach ments on Merida, would seem to number about 3000 men well armed and with eight pieces of heavy ar tillery. Commenting on this unhappy state of things, the Mexican Extraordinary, always friendly to our em bassy, Government and citize is, asks the following pertinent questions: ~i And can we hope for a mnoh better state of things in time 7 We fear not, under the embarrassed con dition in which Mexico must find herself for many years. If Mexico cannot keep Yucatan quiet and protect its inhabitants from massacre is it not right for her to dispose of thatteiritorv. We make this suggestion because the teiritory is worthless to Mex ico as her property, but could doubtle a be sold to to the United States for a large earn of u.on’y. The vomlto had made severe ravages among the foreign population at Laguna, especially the Frenoh and Germans, some forty or fifty of whom had died. The weather on the 29th, however, had beoome somewhat cooler aud the plague Was abating. A severe gale visited tne same coast in the 527th, in which the French brig Deux Scaurs was driven on the shore and stranded, and other damage done. — N. O.

We learn that several of our banks are willing and anxious to make some amicable arrangements by which country money can be taken on deposit for the accommodation of merchants and the busi ness community. The meeting of Cashiers to-night it is hoped may effect something towards a favora ble result. Our banks are discounting only to a limited ex tent, very little beyond their daily receipts. They are liberal, however to the extent of their ability. A large amount of good paper is still offering on the street, and capitalists exhibit a tolerably fair dis position to invest.

Re-Oroanization op ths Agricultural Bu reau.—The re-organization of the agricultural di vision of the Patent Office has jost been completed, and all will be gratified to learu that Cos missioner Holt has availed himself of the experience, judg ment, and qualifications of D. Jay Brown, llsq., as the “ director,” or “superintendent” thereoi. Some one hundred and fifty operatives l ave been ap pointed assistants, and are now busily engaged in packing seeds, &0., fer distribution. For these placee there was quite an army of applicants, the number being doubtless increased largely by the prevailing pressure in money matters, which have thrown out of employ so many worthy persons, young men and oil. In tne selections made char acter and capacity were first considered, then the circumstances. Anew and convenient office for the head of thie division Is also fitted up in the south end of the hall, on eventh street. The labors of this new branch have been oommenced nndir most favorable au apioes. Robert Fortune, Esq., employed by the London Horticultural Society to visit China for a oollection of seeds, plants, &0., and who introduced the tea plant into British India with great saccees—several thousand chests of tea having been exported to Eng land therefrom—has been entered by this agricultu ral division an appointment to collect for it tne seeds of the north of China. — Sun correspondent. More Suspensions op Work — The Waterbury (Conn ) factoriee, with the exception of the Ameri can Pin Company and t’-e establishment ot Brown Brothers, have Btopped all business. Hundreds of of men and women are, in oonseqnence, thrown out of work. Brown Brothers furnish their workmen with provisions and fuel at wholesale prioee. A con siderate and generous course. In Norfolk (Conn.) the Empire Company and the Hosiery Company oontinue work, while the Woolen Company ana the Wetaka Company have stopped work. The Norfolk Bank still pays specie. The Houeatonic Republican says that the Iron Works of Falls Village and Salisbury are not hear in full work, and that the prospeot is they will do less rather than more.

Thie proceeding of Buenos Ayres is taking place at the same time that the pro cess against Rosas is beginning, to whose fell the Brazilian arms and money had s© much contributed. The impeachment of Rosas bad begun. Amongst the witnesses who appeared was Dr. Valey Sarsfield. ex Minster and Senator, who revealed horrible facts. A term of four months baa been assigned to the accused for delivering himself up to imprison ment. The most inierestmg event in Buenos Ayres is the opening on the 29th of August of the Western Railroad to a point called Fioreeto, seven miles from the city.

The Bank of Fulton. All the Banks in South Carolina PAY UP OR QUIT. The pressure of the times has forced upon us the necessity of devoting much of our time and atten tion the past week, to several hundred of our fast friends, those who have adhered to ns (many of them) for years, but who, unfortunately for our in terest and comfort, are decidedly slow In paying their bills—so decidedly slow, that many of them do not pay at all. This class of customers does not answer our purposes very well, for we cannot pay our bills with their indebtedness. We have, there fore, occupied most of our time during the past week, in making out their bills and enclosing them to their address, accompanied by the fallowing respectful but plain spoken circular: Sir : The above bill shows your indebtedness to this office, which I hope you will remit by mall im mediately. The low price of the paper renders it impossible for me to give long credits and sustain myself. I shall, therefore, require advance pay meuts in future, or an charge of one dol lar, in every instance where payment is delayed three months from the date of the expiration of the subscription. As I cannot afford to send out an •agent to you, my only reliance for the payment of this bill is upon your honor. If that reliance Call, the money is lost tome. If, therefore, the bill be not paid in thirty days after you receive this, I shall discontinue tho paper.

Perhaps some over sensitive gentle men, who have had our paper for years without paying a cent, may feel offended. If so, all we have to say is, pay your bills, and you may remain in an ill-humor the balance of your dayo for aught we earo; for we have no use for and do not want subscribers who do not pay us punctually and promptly; and the sooner we get clear of all those who have no regard far punctuality the better. We shall therefore commence in December the work of eracing the names of all those who do. not pay ns, to whom this circular has been sent. The Fulinden—Significant Fact. W e find in one of our exchangee, the subjoined tabular statement of the number of faiiuras report ed through-out the United States, during the months of August, September and October, up to Saturday last. The reader who has not watched closely the progress of events, will be forcibly impressed, if not astounded with the fact, that only fifty-six failures have cocurred South of Mason &. Dixon’s line, while eight hundred and eighty-six took plaoe in the North and Northwest, or free States! This sin gle fact establishes most conclusively that the South is not involved in this crisis to any oonsidarabls ex tent except through sympathy, and that while the North and Northwest have been rnnning riot in all sorts of speculation, the South has been content generally, to pursue the even tenor of her way, do ing a legitimate business. We are not, therefore, in any manner responsible for the crisis, and should not, in justice, be made the victims, as our planters and merchants are, of the reckless extravagance and wild speculation of the North and Northwest.— But we present the list of failures and leave it to teq its own s'cory unaided Maryland 6 Rhode Island.. —.... 6 New York 448 Maine 2 Massaeusettr 85 New Hampshire 6 Pennsylvania 120 Vermont 9 Ohio. ... 40 Connecticut 7 Kentucky 7 Delaware 1 Indiana 3 Wisconsin 24 Washington 2 Virginia 8 Minnesota 5 North Carolinia 2 Illinois 45 South Car01ina....... 6 Indiana 3 Qeorgia... 5 10wa..., 36 Tennessee 1 Michigan 23 California 2 Missouri 18 New Jersey 23 Total 942 Possibly some of our “traveled gentry,” who have never wandered from the sight of the smoke of their homesteads, except to make a flying visit to New York, Saratoga, Niagara, &.C., Sec., after looking upon this pioture, can tell us how “they do things at the North.” Bank of Fulton.—We are informed, that the Stock of this Bank is now owned entirely by re sponsible, bona fide stockholders in Georgia.

Walker in Kansas, and I have been, and am now, equally confident that nine tenths of the Virginia Democracy concurred in that con demnation. At the same time I have never believ ed that either he or they had the slightest idea of making jwar upon Mr. Buchanan, on that|or any other probable ground.” Os course not; no man ever saw the Democracy of Virginia, or any other State making war npon a Democratic President who had any spoils to bestow. Mr. Leake has Bhown himself an expert in delineating Democratic character.

Life and Morals in New-York.— The N. York Tribune, of Monday, displayed in large and bold let ters, the following heading over four columns of de tails of crime in that city > “ The Criminal Record of a Day—High way Rob bers Caught—More Robberies in the Streets—Fiend ish Assault npon a WomaD—Kicking a Wife to Death—The Supposed Murder in Thirty-second Street—More Deaths from Violence—Mutiny on a Packet Ship—Suicides—Casualties.” The Herald of the Bame day says : The records of the Coroner’s office for the past week are replete with cases ot death from violence, and show an increase in crime really alarming. The bloody drama in Tenth avenue was but the precur sor of half a dozen homicide* which followed in quick succession. First in order came the case of Henry Dodd, who was killed in a ball room fight by being struck on the head with a slung shot; then follow ed that of James McDermott, who was killed by a b ow from a cart-rung while engaged in a fight with a man named Owen McKiernan; the following day, James O'Mahony, a missing man, is found to have been murdered and thrown into the East River, at the foot of Market-street: then follows a heart less case of infanticide in East Twenty-third street; to these may be added the cases of two men who died (one at Bellevue Hospital, and the other on Blackwell's Island,) from the effects of usuries re ceived—how, where and when, no one knows. Thus we find no less than seven casee of manslaugh ter occurring i n this city within a period of seven days. A truly alarming record. Politics and Banking. —We observe, says the New York Journal of Commerce, some indications of a desire in Pennsylvania and elsewhere, to make a party division npon qnestions oonue-ted with the financial distrees of the country. Ominous sounds > proceed from certain quarters, threatening even the (existence of the banking system, and looking to wards the adoption of an exclusive ‘‘hard money currency.” Our object at this time is simply to | deprecate the formation of a party issue upon a subject which calls for calm study and unbiased action. Not only would the conversion of this question into a party issue have an injurious effect , upon the subject itself, but the party which should resolve to wage a war of extermination npon the : bank- would find itself deprived of many of its most ! valuable members, for whoee loss mere numbers gain \ ed from other quarters in consequence of this warfare would poorly compensate. The -olid busmen por tion cf the community could hardly be enlisted in j an radiscriminate war upon the banks; and ths I tendency of partizanahip would be to carry every i thing to an extreme, which might, indeed, defeat it ; seif, but is se doing, might ruin all It would seem | that the correction of evils which they must under : stand better than any other class—that is to say, that legislation, if needed, should be based npon their suggestion, rather than upon a popular cry placed in the mouths of the agricultural or mecbani* cal population.

Monroe Si Hodoes—Gentlemen Having seen this day in your reporter, of August 15th, 1857, a letter purporting to be written by William G. Pierce, P. M.. of Morgan, Georgia, stig matising our bank as a fraud, I beg leave to hand you herewith a oopy of the original minutes of the bank, signed bv this William G. Pieroe, dated No vember 4th, 1856. Mr. McCiary, a resident In our oounty, la one of our wealthiest planters, and has represented his district As an officer of the bank, I am competent to give any information required. I remain with much respect, yours truly, HansT. Robson, Cashier of the Bank, Morgan, Calhoun co., Ga. Morgan, Ga., Calhoun County, I C-spt. 17th, 1857. $ Messrs. Monroe Sc Hodges—Gentlemen I signed the above without considering the injustice that it might give J. W. Guerey to praotice a fraud upon your people. The following is a correct state ment of the bank and my connection with the same: The Legislature of Georgia, of 1855-'6, granted a bank charter located at this p‘ace. According to the directions of the charter the books of subscrip tion were opened at thi < place by the commission ers, and the st ok was taken by them and McCiary, named in the foregoing communication. The whole of the steer was then transferred to Mr. McCiary; from Mr. McCiary to parties in middle Georgia, who were recommended as responsible, and who said they would put the bank in operation. The next we heal'd cf the Bank of Morgan, a man, who call ed himself J. U. Smith, of Pbilahelphia, came to this place and said he was Cashier of the Morgan bank, and that J. W. Guerey was President and sole stock holder , that said Guerey would be here in a few days to make arrangements to put the bank in op eration. Baid Smith had a banking room fitted np, and about the 6th of June last purchased a good lot of stationery and a supply of well bound books, suitable for banking purposes, which came to this place for the Bank of Morgan. About the 15th June last, Mr. J. W. Guerey came to our town, and said that he owned the Charter and was sole stockholder. He, while here, appoint ed a Board of Directors of the gentlemen of our town, who agreed to act ; and thereupon elected Mr. J. H. Griffin President, and myself as Cashier of the Bank. Mr. Guerey then left here for New York, statiDg that he would send the speoie in two weeks. The time passed off, and it did not come, and no news from Mr. Guerey until Aag. inst., when we heard from him. Everything necessary would be here in a short time. So things progressed, until about the 15th of August last I then went to New York, and while there, and at the time signing the foregoing, was of the impression, from the repre sentations of Mr. Guerey and other persons, that the Bank would go into operation; and did not know but that the Bank would go into operation until the 28th of August last, when Mr. Guerey told me that he had failed to raise the specie necessary, and that he oould not put the Bank in operation.— Mr. Guerey also stated, while here, that he, as Presi dent, and said J. H. Smith, as Cashier, had signed fifty thousand dollars ot the notes he had stricken for the bank of Morgan. I remain respectfully, Hass T. Ronsoa. Morgan, July 29, 1857. F. C. Barber, Esq— Dear Sir : There is no euoh Bank as the Morgan Bank. I advise yon and all not to take any such money. I believe ft is design ed to commit a fraud on the people. Yours truly, W. G. Pierce, Postmaster, Morgan, Ga. Georgia, Calhoun Countti We, the undersigned, have good authority to be lieve that J. W. Guerey never owned the oharter of the Morgan Bank. We lurther certify that said Bank never was organized, neither was there any specie paid in. J. H. Griffin. Hans T. Robson. R. J. Mt.'Clare. Morgan, Oot 13,1857. Firs and Exflosions at Cincinnati.— On Fri day evening an explosion took plaoe in the fifth story of the Bugar refinery of Messrs. Kilbreath McKenzie Sc Cos., on the north side of Pearl street, in Cincinnati. At the same time a portion of the front wall was blown away, and a huge volume of flame almost immediately burst forth. The estab lishment consisted of thee brick buildings, one of live stories, another of three stories, and one of one Btory, the whole fronting 180 feet on Pearl street.— The entire concern was soon entirely oonsumed. The Commercial says: The building, stock, material and machinery of the refinery is supposed to be a total loss. The value of’ he building ana maobibery is estimated at $40,- 000. There was about 150 hogsheads of sugar on hand, valued at $20,000, and about the same amount of syrup was oonsumed. The property is insured for SIOO,OOO, which will more than cover the loss, the stock of sugar on hand at the present time being unusually light, in consequence of the material from the new crops not being ready. Out of an average of 75 men usually employed, only 30 were engaged about the premises. The manufactory was one of the most extensive in the country, and, we under stand, manufactured upwards of 4,000 hogsheads of sugar annually. Os the SIOO,OOO of insurance above mentioned, $5,000 was in the State Mutual at Har risburg, Pa ; $5,000 in the Phcouix at Hartford, Conn., and $ >,OOO in the Franklin at Philadelphia.

Wilson Bleak - ney, one of the defendants and book keeper of the institution, made a statement under oath exculpa ting Mr. Scott, the President, and the other officers of the bank, from all connection with the alleged fraud. Bleakney in his affidavit says : During the years 1856 and 1857, James O’Con ner, for the firm of O’Conner, Bro. & Cos., over drew their aeconnt to a largo amount. that this was done by carrying over false advances on the ledger in pencil marks . that deponent begged of James O'Conner repeatedly to make his account oorreot, which he solemnly promised to do; that de ponent represented to him the great injury it would bring upon his reputation; and tl’ ‘.t deponent was rendered unhappy and could not sleep on account of these over-drafts.

He commenced over-drawing their account about the beginning of February 1856, and carried it on until about a month ago . that it was still over drawn to a large amount when I left the bank. Bleakney further acknowledges that he frequent ly practiced deception on the President when he asked how the O’Conner's account stood. The Pittsburg Gazette says: This affidavit put anew face upon this already oomp.icated case. We are not minded to enter up on a further discussion of it now ; but we may be permitted to say that while Mr. Scott is relieved T.y Bleakney’s affidavit, from the charge of being a knowing party to the fraud upou the bank, the foot that the fraud’was committed without the know ledge of the President and Directors proves either that they neglected their duty or that the system of bank management under which euoh a fraud oouid be successfully hid for a long time, without power of detection, is wrong and needs amending thoroughly and quickly. The investigation resnlted in Mr. O Conner being held to ba'l in SIO,OOO to answer at the next term. The Failure of the Potato CRor in Eng land. —The London Star of Ootober 6th says that the anticipations whioh had, up to that time, pre vailed of a plentiful orop of potatoes in that country had been suddenly dispelled. The Star says: Within the last few weeks, however, the rot has manifested itself in the most extraordina:T man ner. Hundreds of acres will not pay for the dig ging, as the potatoes, although looking very well when first taken out of the ground, in 24 hours are unfit for use. Unfortunately this sudden mani festation of the disease is not confined to any par tioular district, but seems very general. This is very sad intilligenoe for the poor, as it will praoti oally put this valuable esculent beyond their reach. Fortnnateiy, however, we have had a plentiful harvest American Horses Beaten Again. —The Lon don Star, referring to the American mare Prioress, says: “The Chester Autumn meeting was not re markable. The success of Saunterer was the most interesting of the racing Incidents, and it shewed that the horse had suffered little from his recent voyage to and from France. The pride of the American turfites was still further humbled, for Uieir ‘crack’ mare Prioress sustained a more igno minious defeat! han that which befell her at Good wood and Lewes. Brother Jonathan must now be satisfied of the inferiority of his race horses oompai” ed with our own, for not one of the ‘Americans'— with the exception of the least thought of Baby lon— has been able to make even a show of a race with second and third-rate native horses. American sportsmon, with all their time tests,have no notion of the immense speed of English racers.” Decrease of Receipts into the IT. 8. Trea sure—Daring the last week bat little over $400,- 000 have been received into the U. S. Treasury.— This groat decrease is mainly owing to the small importations, consequent upon the financial crisis, and to the limited sale of publio lands, owing to the same cause. Warning to Pork Speculators —The number of hogs in this section, says the Abingdon (Va.) Democrat, is about as large as usual, so a well in formed friend assures us, yet the price aeked by sel ers and offered by buyers are quite “tall.” We in cline to the opinion that Borne of the spectators will bnm their fingers if they are not cautious.— Stimulated by the high price of pork last season, and the prospect of an abundant corn crop, many farmers, we understand, are making arrangements to fatten a larger number of hogs than they did last year, and the same Btate of things is likely to pre vail In other quarter. The London Economist says i “Whatever may be the turbulence of some classes of Hindoos, and the indolence of others, it is certain that there are in India persevering and industrious laborers. Within the last twenty years the amount of the products of other oountries consumed in India has increased from twenty million to eighty-live million dollars, and her Dative productions have more than kept pace with it. Every nation which trades with v „ 9r becomes her debtor. In 1830" the surplus prr >( j uce of India was $40,000,000 ; in 1855 It exoeedd'j $125,- 000,000. Laßt year the balance due Ip Ilia for the excess of the exports over the imports was $41,000, 000. The speoie importations, which may be re- Earded as a sure indications, of the balance of trade, ave increased from $14,000,000 in 1846 to $62,000,- 000 in 1856. Such statistics show that there is pro gressive industry in India, whioh the present mutiny must affect disastrously.” The Boston Traveller is authorized to contradict the statement made by the Lowell Courier, that the Massachusetts Corporation have voted to Btop again. The Directors have not held a meeting since July last, and of coarse have passed no such vote. The mill now runs four days in each week, and have ootton enough on hand to run until January next. They made 90,000 pounds of cloth last week, and will make the same this week. Frightful Accident. —Capt. McKibbon, the oldest pilot In the port of Mobile, was killed on Tuesday last, in a most frightful manner. He was on board the “Col Clay,” which was conveying the mails and passengers far New York to the “Quaker City,” and was walkiDg across the upper deck, when by some aooldent he fell over the spot where the crank was in full play. In a moment bis head was severed from his body, and by the next revolution of the shaft one arm was ent off, and the entire body torn and mutilated in the most shocking manner. Thi Niw York Bank Contractions. —The fol lowing remarks on the course pursued by the New York Banks, are from a letter from one ot the prin cipal banking honsee of Philadelphia to their oor respondent in New York : “The curtailment by your banks of five to six millions, since their suspension, is wondered at here. It brings gold near to par witizcuiTenoy, tut widens the premium on New York in Virginia to eight to ten ; in North Carolina, to ten to twelve, and in Baltimore to eight to nine per cent. Os oourse resi dents at those points will not be in a hurry to pay off New York debts. At half to one per cent, pre mium, they would pay off much sooner. An even discount line or an expansion would aid the sus pended honsee in New York to oollect in their debts, and pay the New York hanks muoh faster than cun be done at present” Gold aed Trade at Paris. —The Paris corres pondent of the Journal of Commerce thus uotlaes the changes in the metallic and paper currency of the Bank of France : “The premium on the precious metals whioh the bank paid in the month ending Bth September was 265,000 francs ; the present return is of 253,000 —a good sign. Gold has oomq into general use , every one carries It about him or keeps it in his drawer; much which formerly went to the bank remains in escalation. The United States, Great Britain and Germany are now deeply distressed _ hi their mone tary ooncerns, France is at ease ; business takes anew start and the bank lends a reasonable aid— a solid support. The stock jobbing is in a great degree extraneous to the condition of that eetabliin ment and the general aspect of affairs. England must find the war in India a terrible drain of the precious metals.” Snow at th* South.— The Cheraw (S. C.j Oc tette report* a slight fall of snow at that plnfre on Friday night, the 23d ult.
