The Bank of the State of North Carolina, and
J Ihe Merchants Bank at Newborn resumed specie

Wilmington, resumed on the 2.lth July.
Fire in New Vork.^fe
A destructive fire broke out in New York, on
the morning of the 12lh inst., in the building 317.
West street, between Perry and Hammond
streets. The whole of the block, containing nearly
fifty buildings, was entirely consumed. A wo
man and a man ate supposed to have perished in
flames
“The Great Western.”
This elegant steam ship is probably now on
her way to New York, as her day of sailing from
Bristol was fixed for the 21st ult., which will give

Lightning.
During a severe thunder storm on Tuesday
I the 31st ult., the packet ship Huntsville at New
' Orleans was struck by lightning, and her main
mast injured; the brig Uncas, lost her royal and
mainmast; several houses were also struck, but
without serious injury.
North Carolina Elections.
We learn that the entire Whig ticket for the
Legislature in Pitt county, is elected. Last year
it was two Loco Focos to one Whig. In Edge
combo county, the vote was not fully ascerlained,
but the majority for Branch, for Governor, was
«aid to be about 3 to 1. Last year the Loco
Foco majority in that county was about 15 to 1.
This is an auspicious beginning.
Daring Assassination.
At Mobile on the Ist inst. a most attroeious
■murder was committed on the body of Edgar
Jkinlli.a » -f i>v.:i..,l i.,i.:_ t..u
last few years a resident of Havana. Tire deed
was committed at about half past throe o’clock,
within the view of several of the market men>
: who were then collecting, but the murderers were
| not distinguished. Strong suspicion rests on
three individuals who were seen in conversation
with him, two of whom have boon arrested.
Sudden Death.
On Monday, the 30th, Mr. James Strong, a
| merchant of New York, was knocked down in
Broadway by a horse, which was running away,
•and killed on the spot. Mr. S. was fotmcrlyop
the firm of Peter Rcmscn & Co.
The Washington Globe states that information
lias reached the Department of Stale, of a decree
having been issued by the Mexican Government
on the 17th of May last, opening to foreign com
merce the ports of Alvarado, Puxpan, Cabo Rojo
S )lo la Marina, and Isla del Carmen, on the Gulf
of Mexico; and Huatulco and Manzanillo on the
Pacific; the former from the 15th of June, and
the latter fiom the 15th of July.

” The number of deaths in Now York, during
the week ending on the 28ib, was 199; 120 of
which were under the ago of 5 years; 33 died of
Cholera infantum; 27 of Consumption, and 17 of
* Convulsions.
In Philadelphia during the same lime there
were 163 deaths, of these 94 were under 2 years
of age; 15 by Consumption, and G by Apoplexy.
In Baltimore there were 71 deaths, of which
41 were under 2 years of age.
Tornado.
The Gettysburg Sentinel of the 30th ult.
states that a violent storm of wind, rain and
hail visited that place on the afternoon of the
x preceding day. Fences wore prostrated to a con
aiderable extent, and barns and outhouses un.
roofed or otherwise injured.
The Government Bonds.
We learn from the Philadelphia National Ga
zette, of the 30th that it was rumored in that city
that the Bond of the Branch of Ihe United Slates,
due in 1839, for two Millions of Dollars, has
fcecn sold by the Treasury Department, at par, to
Charles Macalister, Esq., of that city.
The U. S. Gazette of the 31sl, publishes the 1
information with the following remarks:— f
The rumor, we are happy to say, is well foun- i
ded. The same offer was made for the Bond due i
“in 1840, for a like amount, but declined, the Se.
cretary of the Treasury not having decided that |
the public exigencies will require its sale. I
The purchase, we understand, is for account of I
the United Stales Bank. We also understand i
that Mr. Macalester has effected a negotiation by •
which the third Bond for two millions of uol- i
xars, will he liquidated in a manner equally ac- i
ceptable to the government and to the bank. i
We are truly gratified to hear of these arrange- i
ments. Wo hope, and, indeed, cannot doubt,
that they are indicative of a better understanding
between the contracting parties; and wo congra
% tulale the counOy upon this exent, which we
it consider as equally creditable to the udminislra
gftion and to the bank, and which cannot fail to
ave a beneficial influence upon all the business
m relations of the union.
H Correspondence of the Courier $ Enquirer.
PHILADELPHIA, July 30. 4 P. M.
Sale of United States Bank B ends.
1 hasten to communicate to you th e particulars
• :,‘of an important money trail svil'on 'hit h as this
t-djv transpired in our city . The Bank of 111
■■ 4
United States line, llirough the medium of Mr.
Me Mister, the broker, taken all the bonds which
that institution had given to the government,
and which were advertised for sale. Os course,
she takes them at par —(J css 'l' 6 interest,) hut
she pays them at different points of the Union
agreed on by the “high contracting parties.”
There can be no doubt that the Government
has made for itself a better bargain out of the
Dank, than it could have made, all things con
sidered, out of any individual or Company at
home or abroad. It is certainly not less obvious
that the bank, in securing to herself those bonds,
makes at least a regular interest on the invests
racnl, and has the immense advantage resulting
from tho right to pay the amount in certain parts
of the Union, where it can easily place funds to
a manifest advantage to itself.
Hut this is nut all. The public will derive on
Immediate and important advantage from the
right and power conferred to draw from certain
distant points upon the U. S. Hank. On the
whole wc may rejoice at this arrangement ns
one of the most salutary that lias been made for
many years.
The Crops.
Kin this immediate neighborhood the corn crops
re very unpromising, not having had a rain in
seven weeks to be of any benefit whatever, con
sequently there will not be more than half a crop
made, if that much. Hut while wc have suffered
we are happy to learn that our neighbors, above
and below us, have bad fine seasons, and in some
places the earth was so completely saturated the
farmers were compelled to stop their ploughs.—
We are informed the crops generally arc very
promising, so if we make but little corn in this
immediate section we have cause to be thankful
that the calamity is not general.— Georgia .Mir.
Sudden Death. — We sincerely regret to an
nounce the death of our wotlhy fellow citizen,
.Archibald Craig, Esq. Cashier of the Chemical
Hank. Mr. Craig was taken ill yesterday after
noon, and died this morning about G o’clock in
consequence ot bursting a blood vessel.—A". T.

Hail Hoad Accident.— On Sunday evening
last, when the (i o’clock train arrived from the
city at Lake I’ontcharlrain, two of the cars were
precipitated from the track a few hundred yards
this side ot the Depot, in consequence of a slick
of wood or sonic other obstruction. The cars
were smashed to pieces, and several persons were
badly injured. A negro hoy, a very smart and
well known lad, by the name of Peter, belonging
to Mr. M. T Voorhecs, was killed.—.V. Orleans

The administration argues, through the Globe,
thatlVlr. Clay must bo the great disturber of the
peace of the country from the (act that he is, in
every peiiod ol distress, especially conspicuous.
1 he administration makes a very important mis
take in this matter—it makes the extinguisher
the fire-brand. Its conduct is much like that of
the incendiary, who being afraid of detection,
turned around and collared the foreman of the
engines, exclaiming—“Ho, fellow, have I caught
you at last'! This is the fellow that is first and
foremost at every lire—seize him !”

Money Market-City News.
'Tuesday, July 31.
a,— l,_ i ii ■■ i' .o uiij. j\oi only
the speculative stocks, but also all stolid stocks
stand better. The cause of this advance is owing
to (ho prevailing sentiment that a better slate of
things is fast approaching. Money is already
becoming more abundant—capitalists aro quite
disposed to find objects of investment. First
’.were is a general desire to £ot hold of Kiddle’s
Uonds—next Government Securities. As tiicso
begin to disappear and become scarce, loans on
stocks arc desirable. At present it is not a dilli
cult thing to obtain any sum on stocks at 0 per
cent, and a brokage; as this description of seen,
rilies become scarce, good business notes at 5 a G
per cent, per annum will begin to be in favor,
and then as the difficulties increase to find favo
rite securities, money will be readily obtained on
bond and mortgage. The instant this period
arrives, there will be a new spring to business.
Uuildets and real estate holders will obtain the
means for setting mechanics in motion ; all in
good time we may expect that there will he a
general improvement in all departments of trade
and business.
It is said that the United States Branch will
file their nccessaty papers for organizing business
to-morrow, and will immediately proceed to
transacting business.
This is packet day, and the rate of exchange
was fixed’at 107 J per cent, on London and 527 j
on Paris. Hut a moderate amount of bills were
sold ; buyers are bolding off for the steam ship.
It is the opinion of many intelligent men that
Banking in this country will undergo a very con
siderable change. Hitherto the legislatures ol
every stale in the Union, has been beset fur acts
ofincorporation authorising Hanking, The num
ber already granted exceeds one thousand. The
late law ot the Slate of New York has placed the
matter, in this State, under one general law.
The whole matter therefore is beyond the reach
of political or other favorites, and all aro now
equally at liberty to Hank, provided they conform
to provisions of the law. The principles of (ho
scheme were well understood and forcibly argued
by many leading and intelligent men, and yet is
•xceedtngly doubtful whether this great revolution
in Hanking could have been brought about tb'«
year had it not been for an accident, altogether
unlocked for, and not connected with.'* 10 subject.
While the measure was before lb' legislature
exposures of the usurious c- ,lluc f of an olficer of
ihe Phenix Hank, as f»-‘ ma(Jo P llb l‘ c in lh '' s
journal, was brought before it; and many of the
members rvho were in doubt, tlecidcd at once to
throw ihe who'* matter open to the Public. But
whatever ’"l s the cause of its final passage it is
nt ,iv the law of the State, and under its provis.
ions three large companies are about to go into
operation in Ibis city, and others in different parts
of the Slate.—There is now to he an end to all
application to the Legislature for new charters,
<fc hereafter all capital to beemplovcj in banking
must be under the new law.
The leading principles of one of the new com
panies is to found itself on (rust property, princi
pally on real estate. A false notion is entertained
by many, that the Directors intend to hank on
real estate. Not so; —though the strength, sol
vency and power of ihe establishment aie found
ed on real estate. The intention is to build up
credit sufficiently strong to enable the company
to issue bonds that will command a ready sale in
the European markets. The money realized on
these bonds will be invested in this country on
bonds and mortgages at 7 per cent; or in other
words money will be borrowed in England at 4
and 5 per cent and loaned here at 6 and 7 per cl.
This is now done to an immense ex lent by com
panies existing by special act of the Legislutute;
and il it can bo done to advantage by companies
with two millions capital, it surely may be done
by other companies, if equally well managed,
with larger capitals. If the experiment should
answer in this .Stale, it is not only£probable, but
almost certain, that the example will be followed
by most or all of the other Males.
I VV hatever changes there may he in the mode of
1 banking and in its principles, there will be {notes m
tho circulating medium of the country. The local
incorporated institutions, scattered as they arc over
the great extent of onr country, will issue the great
circulating medium, the present hank notes of the
country. These institutions, therefore, enjoying
the whole circulation, will continue, where they arc
well conducted, to bo ns profitable ns ever.
