MONEY MARKET.
The position of the monoy tnatket since our tali
notice hat been one of continued improvement.
We have no matetial alteration to remark in life
rote* of nrgacimioni, but they bavo been effected
mure readily and much mum (imposition ii evinced
on the partofoapitnliita to lend or invest their idle
funds. It in belived that the Banka likewise are
more disposed touxtcod their accommodations,and
althougli the offerings have been largo, the demand
has beon fairly if not tully supplied.
The abundance of money has produced sumeei
feet upon tho domestic exchanges, in which more
dispnt'itimi )ms been manifested to invest, and the
rat^exhibit n fair improvement.
In foreign oxchnngo the supply hna fur tome time
been abundant, and tliu rates have been declining.
Wo think it not unlikely that after tho arrival of
the stoatner mow activity ntey be manifested, end
tho prices somewhat improve.
Tho relief in money manors hn*notbeon without
its effect upon stocks. In some description!, par
lieularly United States Bnnk, a decided improve
ment has token place, and, in our opinion, nothing
is needed to promote an increased activity in every]
specie* of business hut tho knowlodgo of what we
are to oxpact from Rumpo. Considerable anxiety
is still manifested ns to what tho effect of tho sin
pension in Philadelphia, and the immunio fall in
stock*, (both state and local) may bo upon the Eng
,gli*li owners.
Our own views upon this subject need not here
ipontud, but whether wo are correct or not in the
-opinions wa have already expressed, let the intelli
fence be favorable or unfavorable we cnteit rin not
a doubt l lint we hove seen the lowest. Theposi
tiun ofsocurities is materially chniged from whnt it
wa« three month age. The then owners, who were
panic stricken, have sold out, and a new class have
come in. Buying with a knowledge of all that has
transpired, it in difficulty to conceive what may take
place tnenusua farther panic. It is Iruo ourcui
rency is not yot regulated, n large portion of our
country is in a state of suspension, many of its bank
ing institutions are in astato of bankruptcy, the
credit of some of our states is impaired, and fears
ere perhaps justly entertained that a defalcation of
interest may take place with some of them.
But it is not our tvout to indulge in too gloomy
forebodings, and with a conservative administra
tion, with tho pieipect of some measures of relief
end of ganernl utiility which may ho adopted at the
special session to take piste within 60 days, and
above all with the immense resources of our country
in tbepioducts of ihe soil, and tho enterprise, enei
gy nnd industry of our citizens, we see no cause for
despondency, and wo should full in nur duty were
wa to express any ground* of discouragement th
reason fur alarm.
lint while on the one hand we believe notin a
farther depression, wa cannot safely say that the
prospect for improvement is immodlntn, or likoly to
be rapid; a moderate and progressiva improvement
will more certainly be maintained than a rapid ~ ‘
unwholesome ono.
The Pennsylvania Legislature have at Iasi adopt
oil u bill fur tho relief of the banks, legalising the
suspension and granting the privilege of issusing
amall notes. Much speculation has existed on the
subject of the Governor's approving the bill, and the
majority of opinions that wo havo heard are, lhai
tho bill will bo vetoed. Plausible reasons are given
for this opinion, but we cannot think that tho Go
varnor will refuse his signature, or rather that he
will return it with his veto. Ha may act sanction
it by his signature, but he may retain it beyond the
period allowed by the constitution, and suffer it
thus to become a luw.
Some little speculation has grown Arttttf the etc
peeled report of tho committee of stockholders or
the United Slates Bank, to be made on Monday nett
and the belief that the report may bo more favornbfe
than has been expected, has probably had somothiiq
to do with tito rise that has taken place.

by OR. ClliTFIKLO.
Mnn can build nothing worthy of Ids Maker,
From toy at Suhimuit’* stupendous lane,
Down tu tito humble chApol of the Quaker,
All, all uru vain;
Tint Wondrous world which ho himself created,
1* the lit temple of Croaiiiiti’a Lord;
Thera may hi* worahip best lm r.elehralrd,
And praise* poured.
Its tiller earth, its toof the sky untainted.
San, moon and stars, are lumps that give it light,
And clouds, by the celestial artist puimed,
Its pictures bright;
Its cfeolr, All vocal things, whose glad devotion,
In nno united hymn is heavenward sped,
Tho thunder peal,the winds, thndvep mouthed ocean,
Its organ dread.
The fiice of nature Its God written bilde,
Which all monkind may study and explore,
While none con wrest, interpolate nr libel,
Its living loi-e.
Hence, learn We, that our Maker; whom affection,
Knows no distinction, suffers no recall,
Shuds hit impartial favor and protection,
Alike on all.
tliua by divine eiampln do we gailteh
That every race should love alike all nthbrs,
Christian, Jew, I'egani children of one Father,
All, All orb brothers.
Conscience, Heaven’s silent oracle, tho assessor
Of tight and wrung in every human breast,
8ternly condemns the Impenitent transgressor
To live unblest,
Thn ptnus And the virtuous, tho -gh Assaulted
By fortufle , a frown nr man'a unjust decreet,
Still in theft bosoms, find a pure, exalted,
Unfailing peace.
Hence do we learn, that hnWlem-d vice i! haluful,
Since Heaven pursues it with avenging rod,
While goodneoo, eoUftefterdnd, must bo grateful,
To man and God,
O iMiil toast visible, yet uniren ttanher,
Whoso ftngrr write* Its lessons nn our sphere,
O tltdu most elidible but unhrnid preacher,
