oial opt rat ons of Secretary Flctd, n'hich. to say
the least, was of doubtful propriety, and placed
in an unenviable position before the country I*, w
true, hi? friend# have sought to vindicate him, by
asserting that the late investigations by Coognse,
were nothing more nor ieae than mere lhovee on
the political _•.!>efr* board, designed by tbe opponents
of die Administration, to break down The Secretary.
Tbi* is. indeed, a p *or vindication. Why single

weak Cabinet, and them wa* nothing to be gained

i Mb KntroHi hi your daily paper of;!3d iust., I
I uo'ice a t oimanuication lrom Mr. dameß Li Valmer,
.ti which propriety requires 1 make a brief reply.
The particular form which Mr. Palmer reviews in
h arkiclo, was only intended for the case of au ad
lute ’trillor dividing negioes and having iu his hands
o'La /iJSiiisjiufthjicut to make up all inequalities
ariauig from the division It is :vm’ there are seve
ral eaoresaioue aa follows : ‘'So each was to re
ceive s.> ft. >ui Lot No l A pay to B and C
e li tfst’ which seems at variance with this ex
planation This sppa.cn! variance arises from a
failure ou my part to express inyseli so clearly as I
should havudonc If 1 had slated that “ each was
to re: slve fhfl from administrator to make up their
and. U',u*i; j-’ the torm would have been strictly
collect Mr Pelmer seems to understand the
words. L'd No. 1 was worth more than Lots No. 2
arid dby I'dO, eud they were equal in valne, as
conveying tin- idea tl.at Lot No. 1 was in exoess of
Lot - >lri(J r.i.d of L’t No Sflttu, but such is uot
iqy uuderatanding of the words I understand
them as oottveying the idea that the excess of Lot
N“. 1 over the deficits of Lots 2 and 3 together tn be
equal 0 fun 1 i have not iu the Manual attempted
to sketch a fam tor the particular esse where the
whole ts’ate is divided and no fund left in the hands
of the administrator to equalize inequalities. Should
another evlttmu es the Mauuai ever be called for, I
wili oertauily p.repare a form for this particular
case, and iu to doing avail mysel: of the veryeiear
ideas and i dust rations of Mr Palmer. In eonelu
n n. permit me. Mr.iditor, so express my thanks
to ibh.gentie.neu lot bis very favorable notice ol

few points where the levee is removed to a greater
djat&DCjfe from the bank, they are only troubled by
the water which is absorbed’ by the earth ad finds
I iU way to tbe surface : however, this carries with
jit very iitte aeetruction We are just now pa-emg
the high b uff upon which the village is situated, and
it is indeed a treat to gaze upon ita towering rugged
cliffs as we contrast them with the balance of over
one thousand miles river bank now liable to de
etrtenon at any moment. The river is now rising
very rapidly in this neighborhood, and though the
water will be higher tbe ruin cannot well be much
1 more general or more severely felt, and the suffer
j era say, ** let it oome. as it will be over the^ooner.’’

The water has been encroaching on the back and
lower portions of the two towns, Columbus aud
Kentucky City, for some time, but yesterday it took
a fancy to fill up our valley a little quicker, and
buret in the levee in five places. At Kentucky
City, just below the mills it nows in a deep stream

j crevasse. At the wharf boat *f E B. Wood &Cos

water three feet deep is rushing down two of the

. two towns are still out of water yet, and though
’ the water is now fourteen inches higher at this point
than in 1841, Ido not think it will do any damage
in or about the “two infant cities.*’ The country
below and above is one vast extended scene of
ruin and desolation, distressing to behold. The loss
•>f crops is indeed immense and the total loss result
ing from the flood will be incalculable.
I know of three planters whose combined loss is
$23,000. One of them is Mr. Burgess, of Wolf

How’ Monsieur Bei.ly's (Nicaragua) Opera
tions are Viewed in England.-—News had
reached England of the ’‘spoiling” of our Ca3B-Yri-
Treaty with Nicarngua, by the interference of
the fso called French agent, Mr. Felix Belly The
London Times tabes a commou-sense view of the
matter., and thus deluges with cold water the splen
did bubble of the magnificent Frenchman :
“The taiement from Paris that a concession for
the canal to unite the Atlantic and Pacific through
the territories ol Nicaragua and Costa Rica has
| been granted to a French company, is surprising
only from tbe fact of its apparently not being
known at New York, where the influence over
Nicaragua is paramount, aud where there are per
sons who still claim rights to the route, which, what
ever may be tbeir validity, are likely to be suppor
ported for political purposes. Ttie whole affair,
however, is without practical importance, since the
conditions are never likely to be fulfilled. The
company are to commence the work in two years,
and complete it in six, and the channel is such as to
aomit two of the largest ships to pass abreast.
The direction, moreover, is to be entirely French,
and the French government are to have the exclu
sive privilege ol keeping a couple of ships ot war
on the waters of the route throughout the whole
period occupied in its construction. A capital ol
£10,000,000 or £ 15,008,000 w uld not suffice, and
me public can easily judge the prospect of any
r-uob amount being raised within the next 24 months
<*n tbe Paris Bourse The Boheme originally proposed
in London, and most unfortunately rejected, was
tor a canal of more moderate dimensions, or even,
111 the first, instance, for an ordinary transit by irn
proving the navigation*>f San Juan and crossing
the 11 miles of hilly land between Lake Nicaragua
and the sea by a railway or other temporary means,
until the success of the enterprise should have en
couraged further expenditure.”
.Just before the steamer left, a powerful squadron
had left Toulon under sealed orders, destination
unknown it was thought quite likely that that
licet was destined for the waters of Central Arne
rica, to back up, it need be, the schemes of Mr. Bel
ly , but the news 1/y the Vanderbilt allows that it
has gone off’ in au opposite direction ; that is, to the
Adroitio, probably to keep an eye on the Montene
grin squabble.
Contradicted.-A Washington dispatch says
that the French Minister has informed our Govern
ment that Mous. Belly, Maillard 6l Cos., have not
acted under the authority of the French Govern
ment iu the matter of the Transit route and affairs
in Central America. If this is so, then there would
seem to be no occasion for this other “rumor” from
the same quarter:
Immediate steps am to be taken by thcAdmiuis
traiion to counteract, if practicable, the movements
of Belly iu Central America. Some pretext will be
found tor contest ug the recent arrangement on the
basis of the i'risarri treaty. If Louis Napoleon be
behind the screen, as believed, this step may lead
to a serious complication. Since the settlement of
the right of visit question, a very belicose spirit has
manifested itself here.
The Trial of Jim Lane .—Some of the New
York paper* have commenced the full publication
of the proceedings of the trail—which waa commenc
ed at Leavenworth on the 17th inst.—of the notori
hus Jim Lane, for the murder of Mr. Jenkins. The
facts brought out by the first days’ evidence, do
uot differ greatly from what lias been already pub
lished, aud where the difference is it does uot seem
to be in favor of Lane. It appears that Jenkins
was unarmed w hen he was shot. He set out from
his house with a Sharp's rifle, but laid it aside be
fore be attempted to cut down the gate, and did
not take it up again. Lane warned him not to
enter the enclosure, aud ran into his bo use, got a
double barreled gun, and planted himself in the
path between the gate and the well. Jenkins,
nevertheless, came ou towards the well. Lane told
him if he advanced another step he would shoot
him, and R 6 Jenkins still came on ; he fired killing
him almost instantly.

A a Exciliag Trial at New OrlM#-Inrercf
in* Detail**
Thet ni of George W. Barby—an old and res- j
pectd citizen of New Orlencs, and a vetera* teach- I
er in the publuMichouls tor oyer quarter of a century |
—far the killing -ff Chari-* li C. Stone, (a native of ,
Virginia,) a young man of previ usly irr-sproecha- j
bie character, and a j auLr member of one of the
largest and most respectable mercantile houses of
rhat city, took place 011 tbe 18tli ingt. The killing
grew out of th - charge that Stone had sedu<*ed the
daughter <>( Harby. and theu refused to marry her.
The trial .*eem? to have created intend excitement.
I and the court-room was thronged with au anxious j
i multitude. The defence admitted the killing, but j
1 intended that, under the circumstances, it was
justifiable. Mr. Durant, eoousel for fli* accused, y
! cade the following interesting statement to the j
| jury:
! “Mr. Stone was introduced to the house of the
j prisoner by a.geuuemaa whose word was a full gua
rantee for the respectability of his acquaintance.—
He waa received with the warmTh of heart na’nral
’ to the prisoner, and it is a moat painful circumstance
j m itaeif. He soon became a frequent visitor and
! tbe watchful eye of the parent scam discerned that
I hi- attentions were of that character which end in
< ’carriage where honor and love unite in mutual at
l tachment. The father was not unwilling to observe
he r ondit on? of things IhU3 growingup, because he
believeu Mr. Stone to be honorable, and kuewhim
to occupy a po.ition where h'a exertion!* afforded
him a respectable support. After a time tue father
ascertained t-at hi-* daughter and Stone were en
gaged to be married and that the event Rra? onlj”
to be postponed until Mr. Stone should realize his
expectation of being admitisd as a parine!* in the
highly respectable houeeof Dudley A Neieou. where
he was clerk. To this the parents, o; course, made
00 objection, being rather pleased with the display
ot niadeuce which seemed to cLdate the postpone
rneut. The confidence of the parents iu Mr. .>tone
was ample and eompleie—they looked upon him sg
the future husband of their daughter, and as suCfi
they treated him. lie visited her constantly ; they ,
attended church regularly together : tuey went uil
accompanied to all places of public amusement—
there was neither suspicion nor restraint.
“But now we approach a most affecting scene in
this drama. The girl is taken ill, her sickneos is not
understood and cannot be accounted for ; a pfaiyai
cian in the neighborhood, a Docter White, is call
ed in to attend her: he no doubt perceived with
out much delay the real cause of her illness, though
delicacy compelled him to refrain from com mimic a
ling it to the parents. Towards tde end of Novem
her. us last year, the parent*- called on that eminent
physician, L>r. Stone, who at once stated to tne un
nappy girl that he perceived her situation. She
implored him, in agony, to conceal the matter from
her farther, which, I need not say, that honorable
gentleman refused to do, but he was prevailed upon
by her to defer the announcement for a brief period
—until the next day. lie then, accordingly, dis
closed the dreadful secret to the parents. You may
well imagine, gentlemen, although I cannot describe
to you the dreadful scene that took place:—the
rnothor overwhelmed with mortification aud ecu
fusion, the father cast down from the pinnacle of
hope to the abyss of despair, the biow -ao too
heavy for him ; be could liave borne all the ills that
Heaven could inflict upon him iu any shape but
rhat: he had garnered up in that child ail the riches
of bis heart, and a cruel thief had robbed him while
he slept. Shame struggled with iudignation in his
bosom, aud reason tottered on her throne. He
pressed his daughter to a confession and found that
the man whom he had reared as a pride and cherish
ed as a friend had treacherously stabbed his peace
and ruiued him forever. Yes, throwing herself at
her father s feet is guilty tears and penitent oontri
tion, ebe confessed, with couvul-ive sobs and tears,
that Charles Stone had seduced her, and she was
then with child by him. she saw in her father’s
countenance the dreadful purpose which had tak
en po-session of his soul aud overmastered all his
judgment; she feared for the man who had wronged
her, but whom she so fondly loved, and implored
her father to grant but one day that she might have
one more interview with her lover, for she was confi
dent, she said, he would do her justice. The father
consented, he wrote to Stone in the language of affec
tion, saying Dear Charley, Caroline is very sick ;
come up aud see her this evening and lie omitted
all mention of the discovery he had made -, ail was
calm, for he was too deeply touched to be clamor
oua. Stone came in the evening. The father had
him conducted to his daughter. His purpose was
then settled. He armed himself. After Stone had
been some half hour iu his daughter’s chamber, the
father catered, a brace of loaded pistols on his per
son. He doe not conceal his motives or design.
He entered that, room with the deliberate purpose
of slaying the seducer of his child, not absolutely’
not unconditionally, but provided he should refuse
to make reparation by marrying. Surely it was au
awful, an affecting scene ; there lay the daughter
stretched upon a-bed of sickness—a fair flower
trampled like the vilest weed—and by her bed-side
sat a man whom she had trusted, on whom she had
lavished the rich treasures of her maiden love, and
who had abused her trust, and consigned her in this
world to endless Infamy.
“And there, too, was the father, calm and insensi
ble. He humbled himself before the seducer of his
child, he appealed to their ancient love, he invoked
the sacred rights of friendship and of honor, implor
ing him not to bring ruin aud disgrace upon his
family, not to send his gray hairs in sorrow to the
grave, to liave mercy upon them, to do justice.
Hearts are steel, and his merit must have been of
harder substance to remain unmoved under such an
appeal he was touched by it, he rose from his seat
and walked towards the mantel, leaned upon it;
then said the old man, are you not the seducer of my
child ; a guilty silence was Lis only answer; are
you not, said the indignant voice of the parent, the
father of the child she U about to bring forth ; there
was no reply, he looked at the old man, and savy a
glance of wild excitement iu his eye that made him
quail and fail of voice ; for God’ sake, said he, Mr.
Harby, commit no violence, and lo morrow morn
ing. at nine o’clock, I will make any reparation in
my power. What were the defendant's feelings
theu ? The crime was acknowledged, and atone
merit promised. What, could the unhappy man
slay the youth then? Impossible. His daughter
lay in a precarious condition before him ; must she
see her lover die by her father's hand before .her
face? The thought rushes through hi3 mind. He
promises reparation, it is all he can do; it is all I
desire . but should I slay him now, my child can
never have reparation done her. 8), he said, you
may go, Charley, but remember, so sure, a* God
reigns in heaven, you will incur a father’s venge
ance, if you (lo not keep your promise. He follow
ed him down stairs ; iu descending Slone said again,
to-morrow at niue o’clock, and as they shook hands
at parting, for the father's hope was renewed, and
his heart, sat lightly again in his bosom, aud he
gave the youth his hand, as he was wont to do of
old in friendship, and Stone said again, to morrow
at nine.
“How anxiously the defendant waited foi theap
pointed hour on the morrow. I need not tell you, it
came and but the seducer came not with il ;
it was some hours after the time that his brotuer,
Mr. Joseph Stone, presented himself; the defendant
ex ressed his surprise at the visit, and told him that
it was the brother he had expected; Mr. S. made
some evasive excuse for the absence of his brother,
and asked to he admitted 10 see poor Caroline. He
was admitted. When he returned to the parlor
there was more evasion, expression of condolence,
of atfecte sympathy for the suffering girl, but he
said he must see his brother again. He departed.
Tbe father saw that he was triflea with, ana that
Stone bad deceived him as he had deceived his
child. His purpose was fixed. He would be de
ceived and trifled with no longer lie at once left
home to seek the guilty seducer. I need not tell
you his purpose. Had they met then, the event
that brings you here to-day would have been an
ticipated. But Stone had escaped ; he had left the
city, aud the father’s search for him was in vain.—
His extreme mental excitement and suffering
brought on an old disease ot a debilitating charac
ter, whicn prostrated him on a bed of sickness. It
is miserable to be weak, doting or suffering. On
his bed of sickness his wife and daughter kneeled
befor him, begging to forego his purpose, at least
for a time. Let me fly from this city, said the mo
ther, where we are disgraced, and hide ourselves
where we shall be unknown, and after the event
that is to come shall happen, ana Caroline becomes
a mother, Stone’s heart may then be touched w.th
compassion, au ihe will do her justice. Weak, sick
and dispirited, the father was prevailed upon. He
left his hearth and altar-stone, abandoned the city
where he had dwelt s© many years iu usefulness and
peace, and ou the eve of sixty years, started out in
the wide w rid anew to seek toother home.’’
The counsel continued, in an affecting strain,
showing how the prisouer and his family arrived at
St. Louis, in mid winter, frieudlsss and.poor, and
unable to obtain employment Soon they received
a letter from their daughter, announcing the birth
of her child. He returned to New Orleans, and
found to his infinite horror, that shameful reports,
which could have had but one origin, were in circu
lation to blast tae reputation of bis child, aud to
stamp her before the world not a9 Le victim of se
duction, but as herself a wanton. This was only
wanting to make him desperate. His wrongs were
becoming too heavy for him to beav. The daugh
ter, however,attempted to pacify him. She wrote
to Stone, appealing to him to fulfil his promise, but
the letter was not answered. It was theu that the
father, driven to desperation, sought out the se
ducer, and phot him dead
Mis Caroline M Harby, the daughter, who had
been seduced, was amongf the witnesses on the
trial The Crescent says :
She was neatly dresped, disclosing a graceful,
rather ?mal! figure, and was closely veiled After
receiving the oath she took her seat in the elevated
chair, still veiled Mr Moiee told her, politely,
that it would be necessary for her to raise her veil.
She raised the h -avy brown veil which hid her face,
leaving a black lace veil still hanging. He face,
however, could be plainly seen She was very pale,
but very resolute looking. In reply to the quep
tions ot’Mr Durant she gave her answers in a clear
and firm voice, and in language which proved her
to have received the education of a lady.
Upon being asked by Mr. Durant, in a manner as
decorous as the case would allow, if Stone had not
seduced her, and if he was not the father of her child,
her firmness deserted her. She bowed over the
arm of the chair and cried and sobbed bitterly.—
Her father also gave way , and the feeling spread
among the spectators, jurors, everybody’. We
never saw so much silent weeping in any crowded
assembly as there was ou this occasion, whilst the
father and daughter sobbed togeth< r. The scene
lasted several minutes
The main points of her testimony are embraced
in the remarks of Mr. Durant. She swore posi
tively to the seduction, and Stone's promise to mar
ry her, and his subsequent retusal to oomply with
hia promise.
The prosecution having introduced two witnesses
who swore that they had had criminal intercourse
with Miss Harby and that she had asked Stone for
money, she was recalled to the stand. She mount
ed tbe steps firmly, and instead of seating hereelt,
Btood up, raised her right haud, and, in a clear, loud
voice, which fell with electric force upon the breath
less assemblage, said .
“ Before Almighty (tod, and by all my hopes
hereafter, I do solemnly swear, that what those
men have sworn about me is fahc-fahe-falne—
[stamping her foot ] If ten thousand lives depend
ed on 1/, 1/ 1* ail false . 1 don't see how any man
could come her*? aud talk that way about me before
my father, and ‘ —
Here she fell in the chair, and gave way to a hyste
rical fit of weeping and sobbing. The court was fairly
stunned by her vehemence, and the dramatic force
of the scene, Upon recovering herself, Miss Harby
stated that it was false that she had ever asked
Joseph St* ne for money. He bad proses-ed great
sorrow for her distresses, aud had offered the money
I to her, and insisted upon her taking it. She had
j written him notes to come and see her, but she had
j never a-ked him for money. She never hid
criminal intercourse with any one but Chas. Stone.
! The case was submitten to the jury without argu-
Imer.t. and in a few m.uutee returned a verdict of
“not guilty.” The result produced a sceue seldom
witnessed’in such a piace. Cheer after cheer re
j sounded through the building, and the indignant
1 remonstrances of the judge?, and the vigorous ex
| ertionu of the deputy sheriffs tailed to quiet the en
; rhusiasm. The demonstrations were renewed out
j sidtr the court r<x>m until Mr. Harby succeeded in
getting away from his friends and driving off in a
carriage with his daughter.

principal firms in New JBjfa.city :
“The alarm as to iu the West has in
a great measure subs crisis is past and
the worst /tar* are wheat crop will be a
good one in Ohio and tfflHßjt'iniug States. It may
t.e somewhat-injured, tarorare iu croaking than in
reality. Our friends j* ’Michigan say that their
S r ate has never lar*ge a crop of wheat,
*o good in quality. oat crop will be
very large ami as to thjflurn crop, a failure in this
has never been known frahe- history of this coun
try a half crop will ns much as we shall
want this year. Moat’bf the up ands have been
planted aud will >ieldweli The Scioto valley,
which is a great corn producing country, was not
planted ‘last year until after the 10th July, and yet
a very large crop was gathered. Three fourths of
the crop ot Indiana was uot planted until after the
20th of June. The feeling is general that the crop
in the West will be abunfaat, notwithstanding the
croakers. But we contetußka! for a while we did
feel that the “windows oroWe heavens*’ had been
opened upon us, and no ark built, ho cattle driven
in.
“The bright sunshine that has prevailed for a
week has done much to dispel the gloom which hung
ovtr our agricultural interests, while other crops
may mw be .regarded as safe; a seasonable fall
will make the corn crop equally safe, and will re
ward t'ie toil of the fanner.
“The effect of suiali crops would make money I
scarce iu the West'this bill and winter coming, but
there are no fears at all now as to this being the
case. There is old wheat sufficient uow in this
country to feed the whole United States twelve
mouths, if the present crop was a failure, aud there
is also a large quantity of old corn yet unsold. We
feel very sauguine as to good times for our trade
the coining fall and winter.”
Impostures —The order of the Postmaster Gene
ral to the Postmasters throughout the county, di
recting them to retain all letters received at their
offices addressed to fictitious names, has fallen like
a wet blanket upon a class of sharpers who have
grow n rich in practising ou the credulity of the pub
lic. There are half a dozen or more of this class lo
cated in Albany, whose profits have been seriously
affected by the order of the Postmaster General.—
One has grown to opulence by advertising that hf
is the manufacturer of “love powders,” which “poa
Bess the power of charming io*j your embraces the
proudest beauties and the of the
sterner sex!” These sent by mail at
three dollars a box. They oM|pP cost the manu
facturer much more thau threeSMits each. He as-
Hures the gullible that, the use qLne box is general
ly sufficient; a second is almoißSprtam to captivate
lhe coldest ; but iu rare instqgj|fl| t |B| third must be
resorted to. That } known to
fail The victim receives second box
es in return for his six d<> lls Bo never gets a
return for his third invest write fif
ty times after tbat to the but he
will receive uo answer.
Another sharper advertthe manu
facturer of bogus coin, for good
even at the rniut—a descripfßM ofcoin that will
successfully stand ail aud defy the
shrewdest batik detectives. SwogiiL who would
deal safely in bogus money e dollars to pur
chase some. He receives ifloMfrn ten dollars in
good coin manufactured at the mint. The sharper
is now out five dollars, but his victim, finding that
the ten dollars sent him pass readily at a profit to
him of one hundred percent, concludes to go to
work ou a larger scale. He sends fifty dollars and
expects one hundred of the perfect “bogus” in re
turn , but he hears uo more from the coin operator,
who by giving ten dollars for five dollars gains fifty
dollars. This lellow, it will be perceived, is com
pletely secure from criminal prosecution. He does
not deal iu bogus coin at all, and his victims dare
not complain, because in doing so they would be
compelled to admit to the world that they were anx -
ious to operate iu counterfeit money.
Another advertises that for the un derate sum
olflfly dollars he will impart to any lawyer a secret
that will, beyond ali chances, enable him to win
every suit in which he may be engaged, whether
of law or love. The charm consists in the posses
sion of the eyes of a very rare Egyptian fowl, which’
none can procure but the advertiser! Strange as It
may seem this fellow has caught some flats aud
pocketed tliftir money. When a§ked what return
lie proposed to make to one of his ipfctims, he replied
1 that he would go into State slieeLpurcha e a spring
chicken, cook and eat the iqfljßagtracl the eyes
and send them to the wistfuL jjjwyej and if they
could see further than his victiffESSMfi. of which he
had no doubt, he might win the suit%
These sharpers bear fi titioua and hence
all communications to them are**ret&i;ied. They
will be sent to the dead letter office.
It, may not be amiss to say t iat the general order
affects a few, in this city and elsewhere, whose bu
finese is deemed by the public comparately legiti
mate, bur who, for reasons best - known to them
selves, have thought proper to conduct it under
names other than their own. The difficulty with
regard to them is very easily reiniflbd. They have
only to abandon itheir aliases andj™r letters can
not be withheld.^- Alba ny A rgu&, fojjL
Late and Important kro a n— End of
the Civil War. —A letter lias beoKpßeeived in New
York from Gov. Garcia, dated MaS, from which
it appears that the civil war whiHMis been so long
raging in northern Yucatan has nnally been ter
minated by a peaceful partition of the peinsula into
two separate independent States. The northern
State having Meride for its capital, retains the
name of Yucatan Its Governor is Martin Fran
cisco Peraza. The southern portion adopts the
name of Cawpeachy, from its capital, the city of
Campeachy. Pablo Garcia is to be the Governor
of this State. The treaties of partition are dated
respectively the 15th and the 18ih of May.
The Indian troubles in Yucatan, of which men
tion is so frequently made, are confined to the south
eastern extremity of the country, near the boundary
of British Honduras, and the opinion prevails there
that the savages are instigated by the British. The
northern and western portions of the country are
seldom disturbed, the Indians iu those portions be
ing civilized and peaceable.
The State of Yucatan is to carry on the war
against the Indians, and Cams eachy to contribute
a sum in money equal to one-third of the entire esti
mate of her own domestic

Requisition of the Governor.— On the 16th
instant, Governor Brown made a requisition upon
the Governor of Alabama for Thomas H. Thomas,
who whs convicted of the murder of Joseph S.
Cross, at the January adjourned term of Lee coun
ty Superior Court, and sentenced to be hanged ou
the 12th day of March He broke jail on the 7th
day of February, was recently arrested and lodged
in Jail in Mobile by U. S. Marshal, C. M. Godbold.
Mr. G. Cross and John T. Brown, Esq., have been
appointed by Governor Brown to bring the fugitive
back 1o Lee oounty to receive the punishment due
to hie crime.
Since the escape of Thomas the records of his
case with the other county records have been des
troyed by fire, and there has been no Court held
since to establish them. consequently the act of
Congress for the requisition which requires an ac
companying copy of the records, cannot be literal
ly complied with. But though there is no strictly
legal obligation, the Governor of Alabama being
convince a ol the facts, will doubtless deliver the
fugitive npon grounds ot comity and justice.—Al

NASHVILLE, Saturday, June 26, P. M.—The Union
<fc American, ot Sunday, Bays :— '* There is some excite

We learn that the notes of this bank are taken on de
posit and in payment of debts by the Planters’ and Union
Banks, though they are not taken by the Bank of Te -
nessee. It may be that this latter fact has created the
uneasiness of which we speak.
The noxes of the Hank of Nashville are taken on de
posit at par by some of the banks, though our brokers
quote these notes at 5 per cent, discount. We learn
from the President of the Bank of Nashville. (N. Hob
sen, Esq.,) that when the bank suspended U had a circu
lation of $114,500, which has been rediced by redemp
tion to $21,500. ,r
Provisions —The Bacon market continues dull, with
litt’e or no demand except for choice Hams There is a
good deal of Bacon in the country, but the prices are too
low to induce holders to bring it to market, and the pros
pect is that the market will go down rather than up.
The demand for Bacon from the Southern markets is
limited from the fact that the supplies are in excess of
the demand there at present. From wagoas we quote
Shoulders at 6c., Hams 7c., and Clear Sides at 8) cents. —
From store the prices asked are cent above these
figures. A ohoice article of Hams for domestic consuoip
tion wou'd c. mmand 74®8c., but they would have to be
very choice. Lard is in very littl-5 request, and the re
ceipts continue light. We quote in whiskey barrels at 9
cents, and in full bound paesages 94c.
Grain and Flour —The accounts this week from the
Wheat harvest have been rather conflicting. In some
.localities the crop has been materially injured by the
frost, the fly and the rust, though the yield even n those
sections ha been better than the farmers anticipated be
fore harvesting. Upon the whole, the crop in Tennessee
will turn out a fair average one, while the Grain will be
excellent. It is probable that the crop in the Wes era
and {Southwestern States has been greatly injured by
the late floods. Should this be the case it may cause a
material ad ance in prices. Os coarse it cannot be fore
seen what contingencies may happen to influence the
market, though the prospect now is that it will attain a
higher point than that at which it opened. We quote
Red at 65®70c., and White at 70®75c., at whioh dealers
are taking all that is offered for present delivery, or du
ring the month of July.
Os the old crop there is still a large amount in the
hands of producers. An inlelligent and well-posted
dealer in this city thinks there is enough old Wheat in
the country to supply the demand for six months, were
the new crop held lrorn market for that length of time.
A large proportion of the old orop, however, is in a dam
aged condition, and unlit for use except by distillers
For a good article buyers are paying 50® 60 cents, while
for damaged and inferior the offerings are from 30®50c.
We hear of no transactions in Corn and no demand.—
In the absence of transactions we quote 30®35c., as the
prices which would be paid.
New Flour is selling at retail at $4.50 ¥ barrel. We
have heard of no engagements by the trade.
NEW YORK, Saturday, June 26, P. M— Money. —
The Money market this week has been remarkably
quiet, and what little vitality it previously had appears
to have been incited out of it by the intense heat of the
past three days. The commission brokers find it next to
impossible to use the means offered to them at even the
present 1 >w rates, and money may be literally said to go
a begging Home of the banks report that their offer
ings are getting a littie better, but we should think that
this was the exception rather than the rule. At all
events papei of the right quality is very scarce in out
side circles, and is eagerly taken when offered at four to
five per cent, for prime. The season is now so far ad
vanced, that we can expect no much greater activity,
until the early Fall trade shall set in.
At a meeting of the “ Board of Fire Insurance Com
panies” ot this city, held to day, it was determinad that
from and after this date that they woald allow a commis
sion or abatement to those doing their business direct
with the companies, or allowing the same to Brokers,
when the business is intrusted to them by the merchants.
Exchange —There has been a fair business in foreign
bills for transmission by the Arago steamer of to day and
the market closed firmly. ‘J he current rates for banka
and bankers’ bills on London was 109® 1094 , commercial
oignatuies ruled at 108i ®lO9. On Paris the rates were
steady at 5f 164®5f.13i
Flour —The Flour market for Dretty much all grades
except good superfine and extra State is heavv, and the
tendency la to favor buyers. The demand is chiefly for
tho supply of the immediate want of the Eastern aad lo
cal trade with some little budness doing for export
Southern Flour steady ; sales 1500 bbls. at $4.45®4 75
for Superfine, and #4.80@6 for Fancy and Extra; sales
100 bbls.
Sugar —The demand is less active, bat the market
continues firm Sales since our last, 500 hbds. at 64®6|
cents for Cuba.
