FBM.mv.Ct rums: Interested like yours Ives iu tlie cidtiviitiu t and disposal of iliu gi't’iit stnple of Auit'ricun ugricultuiv nnd caininen-e, we have acci dent liy met in this city, iu the midst of a or sis .which discloses some striking y momentous features in tho history of this most important brunch of tho tfudo of our country. hen the Cotton Crop of the United States wnsn mere item iu its trade, nml did not n-iich n prothic- tiun oxcucdiug live loindivd ihonsiuid huies, it wus perhnps sufo to con-idcr it us one uitvmg many ar ticles of hurt, r uud exchange, which, left entiivlv to the fortuitous cireiiiiistaures of coumieree, would li"d its level under tho influence of the ordiuury laws of trade, without the necessity of resorting to uny means of precautionary prelection limes, however, have changed. Cotton has faissed from the condition of u mere article uf Com merce, to the performance of the mighty function of being in n great degree tlie regulator of the ex changes, und the standard of value of our country. If tlie nature of this material forbids its entering into our circulation, it is »ctireoiy less the basis of our currency, than the precious mctuls; for the fluctuations iu its price ure felt with a sensibility equally as ucute null searching, us uuy of thusc varia tion* whii-li belong to tlie demand nnd supply of these sensitive und mysterious tokens of national value. Tlm production of this stnple, ha* now become so immense, tlmt it behooves tliose wlm produce it hy n large investment of capital ut n high rate of incidental cost, and in n climate perilous to humnn health, to consider well, whether there are not some material circumstances in reference to th» mode in which this product of tlieir Inlwris shipped from this country, nnd is brought to market ai the point of its finals >ie and cuusuinptioii, which de mand the application of a prompt nnd effective tions on the part of the pUntrrs, Um manufacturer and tho merchant, unless tho price be natural. It is consequently the interest of these throe cltssot* tlmt tin- aiticle should Im protected, on Um ono hand from any grant and undue speculative action, which might inflate prices above the natural rate —nnd on tho other, from nny derangement in the money mnrki-t, nr any other accidental ennso, which might depress it below that rate. The of- fix t of great nisi undue speculation l*eing to derange the iifoncy market, and to produce reaction, with un undue depression of prices. 3. The stute of tlm currency mainly depends on tlie menns which the country possesses, to pay its foreign ilubt, by shipments of its produce. To tho extent its produce ..r manufacture falls short of tlmt object, exports of specie ntny he induced, the efli'Ct of which miol ho u reduction of tho circula tion, w ith depreciation of property und general dis tress. 4. Cotton, in this country, being hy far tho most important produce, and affording die grout m mis of paying its foreign debt, it is the interest of tlm ciinmi'Oiity, and particularly of the monied institu tions, that the prire of it iu England, (the great ninrket,) slmuld ho steady, and thut the article should bn of current sale, so us to bo tho moans of large and effective remittance. It follows, thut t':o inn rest of the hanking iusliiiitioii* here, are the sumo ns ihosoof tlie three classes tir-t mentioned, namely, that tlie price should be natural, thnt it may be stendy, nnd of easy realirnlion. 3. Tlm interest of tlm British Government, of lii« lla:tk of England, und of tlm banks of that coun try in respect to this article, are tho sumo ns tlio interests uf tlm hunks here. The importation there being inunenm, aud tlm employment of a most numerous body of tlio I ihnriug classes, depending on the steadiness of prices. When tli-y ure nut steady—tlie fm-eiga demand for maiiiifactured cot ton is reduced greatly, tlm operatives are thrown •ml of employment, and the great menus of settling tlm hahuen of trade, without tlm exportation of the precious inetds ure withdrawn. Manufactured c-ittou.s aft'.tiling bv fur, tlie in >st important brunch of their export trade. (i C ns.-qnei.tly any arrangem -nt ih it coni I ho f .rmed, hy wldcli tlm ar.lelo would hu protected iron lilt* effects of undue speculation, nml from do- pr-ssion in tlm money market and by winch sirndi. n.-ssof price, will*cinr.Ji.cy „f site, would b>- pun orated—would save some of rim greatest und be-t in inn's is in Imili countries. 7. It is therefore proposed tofi'im u system li which, with the c.iminemonieni of tlm new enq a Ivaiices on Cotton sliiil im made wiili th: cap'll iircrvdit of Bnuks here, theieby relieving tlm siguen iu Eunqie from nil cure or consideration, C pt the iidvautiigeoii* s ile uf lii* stock, wide would I'Minole all the-u interests, and afford gon* erul sniiofictiomm both sides of tlm water, provided il were not made the menus ordirec ly nr indirectly, ofun loo speculation nr monopoly. .

If we liive become satisfied of this fact, ought we not to organise a system, which shall give perfect security to this great interest in the commerce and finances of our coun ry !

To renliie ut home, the resource# necessary for the protection of our property abroad, without tho necessity of large und iuconvonieut draft* on tlm capital and means of our great customer. In otlmr word*, tlm coinraen iul reform we desire, is to send our great staple to market, without the pe riod being determined by the date of a Dili of Ex change, when it is to he brought forward fur abso- lute and unutvoAsary sacrifice. We klievo that tho stea.lintws in price, which would result ftum a portion, *t h'tt-t, of the Cotton crop living exempt tiom the disiutro'l# fluctuations aiioiug from coin- pulsorv sale*, would in the uud, he scurrely less valuable to tlm spimmr’and rousuumr in England, than to lho grower ami shipper Imre, A lact,’ which we think demuosirahja trout tha following postulates, which wt consider altogether *a|f-«>f. dentt I.

Trial of Ezra White, for the murder of Fits- piitriek. This trial, which commenced on Wednesday of iuit week, terminated yesterday evening. Tho fol lowing is a brief analysis of tho cose :— "On tlie night of tho 13th of February last,a man named Lawrenco Gaffney, who hod recently com menced keeping <t public houso in Bro.inm-streat, i ivited some friends to a house-warming. About o'clock in the mot nine, while hi* company were dancing and amusing themselves, tho prisoner and three other young* men went into iho h«u*o unin- vitvd, and two uf them walked into a back room where tlio greater part nf Gaffney'* friend* were.— The prisoner had scarcely entered the houso when on-* of Gnffnev’s friend* suggested to the prisoner and hi* friend* that they were intruding, and tlm ri«aiMi replied, " I canto here to make a muss, and il go when 1 d—n ti|oa»e."

Ia a moment or two after, the door was opened by some person iniido, mid ono of Gaffney'* party, named Viunatrick, stepped on tho stoop, and was insUally stabbed hy tlie prisoner, in the groin, and fell to the ground tn><rta]|y wounded, mid died shortly after. Tho prisoner uud Id* companions then ran away, aud the ensuing day thu prisoner and one of his companion* of tlio night Lefnrc, fled from this city iu tlio steamboat to Boston, from whonce they in- leudod to go to Charleston, hut were pursued by iho police, and arrested ut Boilun, and brought bnck to New York. There was a good deal of contradictory evidence us to the description of clothes worn by tho prisoner, on the night of tho murder, nnd as to whether Im had or hml not been roughly treated by some of Gaffney’s friends, not including Fitzpatrick, before hn wu* pul out of the houso. But tha evidence showed most indisputably that tho prisoner had killed the deceased, in tho manner wo have de scribed, und thu only question which admitted of any doubt wus as to what was the legal degree of crime which tlio homicide amounted to. Jude Ingli*,in a charge of mure than three hours’ lengih, minutely summed up tlio evidence, and with grout perspicuity pointed out tho different circum stances which rendered homicide murder or man- slaughter in it* difforent degrees: Council for the prisoner took several exceptions to his honor’s charge. The jury retired, nml ufter an absence of nearly four hours, brought in u verdict of wilful murder. "Hook upon the establishment of the Independ ent Treasury Sy-tom, as an event which, sooner or laici, must itikn place, but it mny bo that another ’suspension' mit-tbe added to tlio argument before it ran be carried ." Tha above passage from a recent letter by Mr. Bentin, is calling forth comm nit from a number «f whig newspaper writers, who by thoir remarks upon it, give evidonui'S either of malignant tuugery, or ofu auqiidity whirh proves them quite unfit lor tlieir pushpin. They assert that Mr. Bentiott riiroaii'm ih.i coumiy w.tli another suspension— that hn and the friends of the ii'lmini-tration arts plotting a panic und a pressure to aid them in car- tying a particular measure of policy.
