Louisville, Saturday afternoon.
Wagner and Grey Eagle have again met.and
to day. Though the latter lias once more been
vanquished, ho has shown himself inferior only
to lus own more fortunate competitor. The
only other eutry tor the purse was tho full sister
of Singleton. At the start Wagner led off at
an extremely modefato pace, Grey Engle and
Emily Johnson following some lengths in the
rear—when within a few yards of the last
stretch in the first round, Eagle mado a brush at
Wagner, and put him to his speed, runiiinj
locked with him, until the first turn in tho thin
mile, when ho passed him, and maintained his
position till the termination of the heat. From
the lime ho was headed, Wagner made n sue-
cession of brushes nt tho Engle, frequently lockt
ing. but in ver could pass him. Ho finally ceas
ed all efTorts at the distance stand, permitted
Emily Johnson to brush his opponent from
thence to tho Judge's stand. Time: 7iu.5ls.—
This heat would have been quicker, but for the
tardy pace in which the fust I of a mile
run.
At the appointed time the three we;e again

From the New York Courier Enquirer, Oct, 19.
Tho Bunk Commissioners of Rhrnlo Island
have issued fiutu Providence, a circular to all
the incorporated banka of that state consequent
on (lie suspension ofspooie paymunte by many
of theso institutions. This circular enjoin* it
upon the banks lo forbenr from any coiiaiuerabla
extension of their liabilitios, and from disposing
or their specie for any other put poso than the
redemption of their own hills. It fnrlhor re
quire* ilium to refrain from the issno of fraction,
al billls, and advices them to pay out freely the
smaller denominations of coin. „ ,
Tho banks are also advised, in all their
transactions,to hold in vlaw an early resumption
ofspeoie payments, to do nothing that shall
peril so desirable an event.
To restrain any immodciate issues of Bank
paper, and to prusorve mi uniformity in »t*
valuo, itia recommended that such an arrange*
tnent be entered into by the Banks generally,
as will provide for the reception by each Bank,
of its bills from oilier banks, weekly or oftotn
or, and for tlio payment of a suitable rate of in
terest on tho balances which may be found
•gainst it.
The hanks are requited to report iinmodiato*
ly to the coiuUsionerii ut Providence^ statement
of their condition nt tho closo of business hours
on the 15th instant: and a similar report Unre
quited for tho 22<l inst. Dining the suspension
a monthly report will bo made.cotnineuclng with
the first Monday of November.
From Boston wo learn that at a meeting of
Delegates from the different banks, held on
Thursday, at which 21 out of 25 of tho city
banks were ropiesented, the following reiolui
tiou offered by C. W. Cartwright* E*q , «nd
seconded hy F.liphnlet \Vil ums.Esqr. was
unanimously adopted.
Resolved, That nftor an interchange of opinions
and a statement of facts in regard to the present
condition ofthe Boston Bank*, we nre fully
satinfied that they are in u sound condition, and
in tlio possession ofnn unusuuUinount of specie
—and that without tlio occurrence of some un*
anticipated event, have the utmost confidence
in being able to maintain Specie Payment*,
•nd at the same time continue, or oven modo*
rat«dy increase, their present line of discounts.
We find, in tlie Boston Daily Advertiser,
the following letter from the agent of Meters.
Baring to the President of the Merchants'
Bank of Boston:—
New York, October 16,1839.

Dear Sir:—Mr. Winchester called on me
Ibis morning in behalf of your bank, to inquire

shall be in Bostun soon and will have the plea
sure to see you on (lie subject, but I conceive
no occasion can arise, inasmuch as Mr. Quin,
cey is drawing in Boston on Messrs. Baring,
and the bunks bore also agninst stocks, for a
large amount—aud on other houses also: and
aud I think the amount of bills offered will pre
vent any export of specie of au consequence,

Accidents on Monday.—A man was accidental*
ly wounded in Kensington hy one ortho volon.
teors engaged in keeping back the crowd, lie
was thrust o.-oinst the soldier’s biyonot which
entered his urin, causing a severe flesh wound.
On ihe sntno day, while iho procession was
aprnnehing, u child about five years old, the
daughter oil Jamss Fox, bricklayer, fell from
the second siory wiudow ofe homo io Ninth

killed.
A. the President wa. about to nrrivo al the
dopot iu Kensington an eldoily man wa.
knocked down on the Frnnkford road, near tlie
Black Horse Tavern, mid run over by a Roil
ltoad car. Hi.armwu. broken and otherwise
lacerated.
Another man was carried home on a settee,
in Second sireet, new '.Market, Huw ho had
been hurt wns not ascertained.
A black man was violently kicked by a horse
in Iho crowd iu front of Sanderson-, and one
nf tho cavalcade ofcilixcns was lliiown from
hisltuiso at Iho cornorof 4th nnd Cuinmcreo
streets.
Two boys wore run over by two man riding
on horso back ot full gallop, iu Sixth sireet,
abuvo Markot. The men were arrested, nud
token before u umgisti nte, who bound thorn nvor
to answer the charge. The boys wero very much
injured,
Air. Throne os a grocery | * Barber shop in Iho
rear of this building, at tho corner of Anson and
Ellery st>„ was also blown up, whore the fire
was subdued.
One of the Vegetable Alarket. was several
times on flro, but by great exerlion. of tho fire,
men end citizens was quickly put out, after dm
ing .onto trifling injury to tha wood work.
Tho wind was very high, and levcrn! build,
ings in Iho iinmedialo neighborhood had their
roofs ignited from the burning ember, which
ware blown a cansidetnble distance.
Wo liavo not boon able to Ioann bow tho fire
originated. Theta were four or flvo dwelling*,
with their out house, destroyed.
It is fortunate that tha buildings on Morkot-at.,
wero of brick, as from the very high wind which
was prevailing at tlio lima, it would be almost
impossible to toll where the destruction would
have ended.
The bauks hare generally are in a position or
great itrenglh, and their eneagemonli so redu
ced that nothing can touch thorn without their
own coniont—and have more specie then is
desirable for them to koop; a. I understand tho

Now York will not only continue lo pay specie,

Important Question.—'The Oci®ber term of
the United States Circuit Court opened at Bos>
ton on Tuesday. The Boston Advertiser con-
Inins the following report of tr opinion of Judge
Story, which may be considered a subject of
great importance to tho public
Judge Story disposed of a caso of very great
interest to iho morcautile community, involving
a novel question rospocting the duties and lia
bilities of American merchants residing abroad.
It was a Bill in Equity brought by Geo. Wildea
and others, merchant* of London, against
Thuodoro D. Parker, an insolvent debtor, of
Boston, and William Dehon, Esq. his assignee.
It seems that Parker formerly obtuinod a judge
ment in this Court against the plaintiff*. des>
cribing them as aliens, whereas in point of fact,
ono of tho plaintiffs, Mr. Thomas Searle, is u
native of Massachusetts, who rorides in London
hqt has never heon naturalized in England.
Thu defendants in this suit pleaded to the juris
diction of tho Court on the ground that Hoarle
was not an alien, but was a citizen of Mnsschiit
si’t's. Thu quuslinii then was, whether a citi
zen ofthe United States residing abroad, was to
b» considered so far un alien Hint he cun sue
end bo suud in the Courts ofthe United Staios?
The ense wns argued at chambers by Ivors J.
Austin for the pluitiliffs, aud by Dehon for the
defendant.
Judge Story said iio considered the quonliou
of very grunt importance, as it was well known
that thuusmid* of our citizens wore uctunlly re
sidents in foreign countries. It wm also a novel
qiiQAiiou. In many cases persons residing
nbrnud must be considered us aliens; but wheth
er a mere residence out of iho country would
nimble a person to coma into the United States
Courts ns alien*, ho was not prepared to say.
Oil the whole, he desired that tlioquestionslioiild
bo carried up to tho Suprome Court at VVuult.
ington, that it might bo finnlly settled by the
highest tribunal in tlie country.
In care that Court should deride that Mr.
Huai lo was 11 citizen nnd could not sue iu this
Court, another qiiestiun would arise; find that
was, whether Parker could rely on that fact, hav
ing alleged in a former case that the present
plaintiff* wero aliens. This was a very impor
tant question-
His Honor concluded hy saying, that he wus
not prepared to express nn opinion on tlio prim
cipal question, but the more ho thought of it the
moro 110 was inclined to the opinion Ihut tho
Court had no jurisdiction. He would add Unit
it was not ncccessiry for the Counsel to bo pro*
■cut at tho argument in Washington. Jf they
PHILADELPHIA Oct. 19.
Yestordny afternoon about five o'clock the
attention of the citizens residing in Water
street was attracted by the imprecations ofthe
molt revolting character to nil old building in
Water street, half way between Market nnd
Arch, tenanted by a number of families of tho
lowest grade, It appears that the garret was
occupied by n man ofthe name of Macra of ex
ceedingly intemporato habits, who had a wife
and one child, a fino little bov about two and a
half years old. Yesterday afternoon after much
bickering, the parties camo to blows and the
little one no doubt much nlarmed. to protect iti
self from the violeuca of its unnatural parents
crept under a bed which was in the room. Dur
ing the fight, which lasted for some lime, the
bed was thrown down, aud shocking to relate
the child was smothered beneath it. When
found, one of the rails was lying across its neck
and it had been dead apparently for some
time.
NEW-YORK. Oct. 18.
The public will we think, learn with surprise,
that Messrs. Ruiz and Montes, ofthe Islundof
Cuba, who wore overpowered, by their slaves
on board the Spanish schooner Ainistad, and
from whom limy wero rescued hy a U. States
snip of war, after enduring tho most horrid tor.
lures—aro now suffering incarceration in tho
common jail in this city.
Yet, it is a fact that they were yesterday both
arrested in a civil suit by a process issuing, one
from the Court of Common Pleas and, another,
from the Superior Court, on tho assumed com
plaint of ‘Fulab. an African of tho Meudi Tribe
and Singweh, nn African of the Meudi Tribe'
for ‘imprisoning, boating and wounded them!
and the joint damages laid at $3000. On which
process Messrs. Ruiz and Moutcz are now con *
fined in jail.
The savages, in whose names these suits nre
instituted, uro of course ignorant of tho whole
matter. A life time would not suffice to make
them comprehend it. Tho real plaintiffs are
Iho abolitionists, nnd the foremost os usual
amongst (hum is Mr. Lewis Tuppun! who ac*
tually accompanied the Sheriff's officer who
served the writ to point out to him the persons of
the Spanish gentlemen. Ho ofcourse would not
loso the opportunity of adding to tho enviable
notoriety heelteady enjoys!—Courier.
OCTOBER 19-2 P. M.
Money Market.—The money market never
was closer than it has been to day. Those who
huve kept up their credits, and who aro dispon
ud to austuin their southern securities, are ma>
king great sacrifices.
The merchants never used greater exertions
to moet their engagements than thoy are muking
ut tho present lime; up lo Tuesday there had
broil very few applications to the Companies
for insurance 011 specie—to-day the offices are
lull.
The market closed with but little animation iu
■tucks.
