But if the a mount of idiunesi could bscalcu ated w.th m i tiiemalical accuracy throughout onr extended Republic, allowing the drones only half price fur services they might perform, which others ana now daid fbty St might not be an unsafe calculation to pul down the whole amount now paid for provisions and marketing in the United States - It ia not a l.ttlc inconsistent to bear parents whine about the price of pro vteiona, while they bring up their daughters to walk the streets and expend money. In one of onr great, commercial cities their resides a man worth from two to three millions of dollars, lie had three daughters, end he re quired them alternately to go into the kitchen *nd stiperinted its domestic concerns. Health and happiness he said, were thus promoted,be* •idea he could not say, in the vicissitudes of fortune that they might not, ere they should close their earthly career, be compelled to rely 1 upon their hands lor a livelihood, und he could nay that they never could become wives and the proper heads of n family until they know with practical experience, sll the economy ol the household affairs. One of those daugh ters ia now the lady of a Governor of 0110 of the States—all at the head of very respecta ble families ; and they carry out the princi ples in planted by their worthy pnronl—win ning and securing the esteem of sll around them.

From tbs Now York Traiuript. MONEY MAKES A MAN BOLD. 'i*This is an axiom that few perhaps will de ny. *rho celebrated Dr. Witherspoon, Presi dent of Princeton College, going to preach on a Sunday to a neighboring country congre gation, ns he passed through the square to the pulpit, said to one ofthe ruling elders, "John, (lend me a crown.” The crown was lent and the Rev. Dr putting it into his pocket went into the pulpit and preached a bold, do- , quont and powerfully pathetic sermon. De fending from the pulpit nl'ier service, he pull cd out the money ami said to, John, “ here ia your crown.” ‘Oh keep if, says the elder. •‘No, no, says the Dr. ‘I only wanted it when I preached, for a man is always bolder with the snoney in this pocket.” This anecdote of one I of the moat sensible men of his day, is not I •only true *3 an isolated fact, hut it is also t •true as a ncneral principle, applicable to aI- i uno.it all mandkind. The man with money in i 'his pocket is invariably bolder than him who t ha* none. Experience teaches this abund- i antly. Go into company where any tiling is to be expended or any thing to be purchased, and if you ore ever so wise and virtuous, or otherwise ever so fearless, you feel on this oc casion exceedingly timid, ashamed und even sheepish. While your neighbor, who has not half your merit, who has money, is as bold as a lion. If you enter a market or shop to buy ■n article yon want, although your credit is ever so good, you feel a want ol confidence in yourself, and cannot drive a bargain half eo readily or adroitly as if ysu have the cash •lo plank down for the purchase. If you are 1 in debt, and one of those ugly articles a dun I comes across you, and you have not the mo- < my, how insignificant and humbled you led I in your own estimation, and what a sorry a- I pulogy you make. Whereas, if you have thu I money to pay with, your spirits nro elastic and i ■light, and you arc as bold as Bonaparte him- i i self. As a politician, you present a poor hu- | I miliating posture without money, and are com- j puled as a nought in arithmetic, as of no uc-1 i count whatever. If you enter a gentleman's ! i house to attend a drawing room parly or sol .rec, if you are known not to have money, no “matter how wise or virtuous you may bo, you feel humble 1 to the dust almost, as you hear i some rich fool call you in a whisper "a poor 1 devil.” Ami whether you arc a minister, a lawyer, a doctor, a merchant, an editor, a mechanic, or any thing else in life or in business —if you have no money or next to none, your feelings tell you that you are despised by others who are rich, and who have iheir pockets full of cash, and your mortification at the contemptu ous treatment you receive, is almost over whelming. Some may praise you for your talents, admire you for your amiability ; cu lugise you for your virtues and your patriotism —but the epilogue to all this lino dramatic i culogism is, poor fellow, hu is poor and has ho motley. Money then, not only makes a man bold and fearless, but is considered as the chief evidence, the undoubted er torion of merit. If a man is rich, the world says he is •a good man,’ even if lie ia leprous with half the viuofKlhat curse humanity ; and a jackass with apaif of pannics on his back, stuff'd with dollars, ia reputedly a much wiser and heller and admirable animal than the noble Ron, who ranges lord of the forest, and is king by consent of his fourfooted kinsmen.— Xhe meanest fool, the veriest knave, with plenty of money, can make his way near to the throne, while the wisest and most virtuous man without it must lay like Lazarus at the gate. A celebrated writer says—‘wealth is power,* and we add, it is also courage, conduct and virtue. Line the pocket, and the man can storm the roek of Gibraltar ; empty it, and lie is frightened at a Sly. Money is the god •f this world ; all who have it, arc of the or thodox faith ; those who havo not, are con sidered heretics, and “worse Chan infidels.” ■Old Francis, lute of the Baltimore and Philadelphia Theatres, was a wag, and once, in Washington city, when early peas were on the table, he emptied the contents of his snulf box over them. "Freucia .' Francis !” they exclaimed," wha' are you about!” “I liku that way," was the answer. He, of course, tiad the d.sh to himself, and when he had con cluded, exclaimed—" Vou thought it was snuff, did you !—Nothing but black pepper.” The following conversation ia said to have taken place between Mrs -, o f New York, and her maid. "Leah; bring me some wa ter, with the chill taken off." “Yes, ma’m, directly.” “ Leah, what on earth keeps you*’’ "Pve been looking ever since for the chill, ma’m, and I can't find it.’’— This remind* us of the boy sent to boils aome eggs soft; —when questioned what detained bim.be answered; lot the thing, it aint no use, they woa’t boil soft.—l have been at them more nor an hour, and the more I biles’em the hards: they gets.” • —* •——- A Good Onr.—A gentleman ol this conn tv, who bad named one of his son* ‘'Thomas BeiUOn,” upon hearing that the expunging resolutions had passed, opened his Bible, ex punged the iiama by drawing black lines around it, and insert vd m its stead • Thom as Ti.il Rcj.crl,.r, | * From lha Washington UcloroMr. New yokk abolition riots.

Wu pub ish two accounts ol tlio train-action-—one from n correspondent, and .mother from a slip from the rtlar office, 'i'he Sur says he hopes that it will n.,t hr given up until there no longer remains "s loop to hang k doubt on.” What would the i"j|ar have! If our correspondent l<o correct in bis statement, we see not how there could remain a doubt. He says that eight oi ten gentlemen of great rciqiecUibilily, and, one of them a resident of New Yo.lv, who had visited Dr. A., und know the servant, swore to his identity. Would the Star have this testimony to be set aside by the evidence of pcijuied negro scoundrels from the Five Points, hundreds of whom could he got to sweat to any thing fd a dollar apiece! Nkw Yuaic, April 13th, 1837, I will attempt to give you a sketch of what took place yesterday, in as impartial a manner ns my feeling now highly excited, will permit. A fugitive slave, the property of Dr. ALiANnr.ii, of Baltimore, was brought before the Recorder. Eight to ten witnesses were summoned on behalf of the complainant—men of great respectability —some of them resident* of New York, who had visited I lie Doctor and knew his servant. They one and all swore to the identity of the man,— when In and behold,a host of negroes were brought in, who swore in good round oaths that he (the slave) had been in Iho city of New York from binh!! 1 mixsdjin lhe crowd andjneard what was going on. The negroes, who bad collected to the number ol 3,000, talked loudly and boldly that they would not let the negro man leave this “tree city." That ifhe was the slave ofthe Doc tor, they would purchase him ; and if he was not willing to lake a fair remuneration for him, they would rescue him! This information I communicated to llaye, who is much of a man—afraid of nolbingjft deter mined to do his duty. Two of the police anjj* several Southern gentlemen determined to stand by and see the issue. The abolitionists wore in large bodies, and loml in Iheir denunciations of the youth. After a while the negro was taken to the Court of Sessions, and such a rush—then, after going through a round of evidence, they ad journed till to-day at 1 P. M. In bringing the negro from the court house there was a general rush. I was carried some distaficc, and separa ted from *my ft lends. Hays was knocked down, und "to the rescue to the rescue,” was the cry. The dense body of negroes moving ra pidly along created such a stench that I was al most sullocatcd. A lawyer by the name of Whee ler tried to assist the negro, but wo nabbed him at laat, and at that moment they seized the slave, pushed him into the crowd, and away he went. I’he noise was grealj the acclamation* of the. ne groes, and the shouts of the abolitionists might have been heard three miles. But wo ten South erns were nut to be put off in this day. Wo got onr pistols, followed the fugitive, and traced him to his charnel house. Then we nabbeil him, brought him and lodged him in goal. Will the Southerners put up with this! It is not too had! We must do something, and that quickly. The negro hu* had his master bound over in the sum of SSOOO, lor false imprisonment. Look at the expense an owner is put to get his slave. Hi* hoarding, witnesses, law feels, Arc. Can this will it he lolvialcd! F. From the New York Star. Thk Sftxvii Case — Riot —The caso of the colored man arrested a low days since, on the charge of having run away from kis mas. ler in Virginia, canto up before the Recorder on Tuesday and after some pcrliminary steps it was adjourned to yesterday at II o'clock. Owing loiho immense crowd present, the Re corder adjourned to the Sessions Room Alms House. Tito examination of witnesses m he. halfol'llte slave continued till 3 o’clock, when the proceedings were adjourned. Nearly nil {he audience wore blacks, and most of them tembl'fld- A few, however, lingered behind, and whet. prisoner was brought out of the Alms Hou»0 door, under Messrs. Lownds, and Fountain, depth/ sheriffs, they were as saulted by shout 500 eolorwJ P«»oiw >n the Park. From the Gazette we t’«,'.? rn i'' at this time "Justice Bloodgood broke ti,." ml 8", the crowd, und whet*within arm’s length oi the prisoner, a strapping wench jumped on I his buck und threw her urms around his neck; ■ while in this situation two negroes cumo to i her assistance und succeeded in bringing to the ground when one of them cummuncetr s beating him on the back of the head and nock. Ho however soon succeeded in secu ring him as hu was about crawling under thu chains of the partorie. Some officers I were also fortunate enough to capture the other negro and the wench, and all throe were commuted, I Gilbert Hays, one of the officers, was also ' knocked down and much biuised ; David 1 Waldron, another officer, bad his coal torn 1 oil by Russell C. Wheeler, a lawyer, who ' was arretted and bound over in iho sum of §IO,OOO lo answer for the assault. Duting the confusion the prisoner was car- ' ned oil' by the mob, which proceeded up ' Broadway to Reed-strect, where they turned ’ down towards the North River. Just tiller passing Church-street, the rescued man was , stealthily pushed into an alloy, and iho mob continued down iho street, as if they still had iheir prize in company. Their movements wore however, watched by deputy-slierili Fountain, who remained in front of the al ley, and sent to the police office for as s stance. He was speedily supplied with the . requisite aid, und nflcr a diligent search ol i the premises, Hie negro was found in a coal < hole, and re-conveyed to prison. On search- 1 ing him, a dagger was found in Ins pocket, 1 with both edges sharpened, secured round Ins body. The persons arrested arc named Henry 1 Pierce, Jesse Hatred, and Keziah Manning A small party of blacks now proceeded to the residence ol a colored man in VValker-st. suspected of having given information re specting the reputed slave. /They caused the workmen in a carpenter’s shop opposite to affix polos to the sign, and were about to carry off the same, when Job Monday, and Aaron Watson, the principals, were commit ted by Albcrman Erbeir. We deeply regret to see this exfltemont, because we know that it is the precursor to others which may have fearful results. We hope this case ol D xon may bo closely and carefully investigated, and that not a loop to hang a doubt upon may be found before lie is given up; for while in every case we would curry (ho law into effect and give up a fu gitive slave, we arc not without our suspicion of two facts—one is, that colored men are seized upon to create an abolition excitement, and the other, that fellows who make a busi ness of it attempt to seize upon blacks as slaves who are not so in fact. Such of our Southern friends who are coming North this season, we advise by no means to bring their slaves with them. They are nut sale an hour. An interesting trial took place on Tuesday, the 4th instant, in our Circuit Court, in a case in which the celebrated Mrs. Ann Royal was a party concerned. Mr. Barney Parsons was in dicted by the Grand Jury for taking summary satsfaclion on Iho fair lady, for sundiy caustic applications ot the pen editorial, in the Paul Pry, a paper lately conducted by Mrs. R. Mr. Bar ney not having the fear of the Press before his eyes, and now being somewhat intoxicated, did with most gallant style, approach (lie sacred per son of the Editress, and did, not hiving th* fear of the costs of suit and various other legal liahili. lies before his conscience, but only seeing his Royal Critic before his twinkling orbs, raise an article of bluish hue and pliant body, denominat ed a cow skin, for the purpose bought, over the head of the fair Ann, and apply in the most scientific manner, the aforesaid weapon to her I shoulders. Th* learned council for the plaintiff remarked, ! I with philosophical precision, that Mr. Barney I Parsons should, for the fulure, bear in mind that i excellent old English ballad, auug by old people j to children “ Barney leave the rirls alone," Tl.ii' interfiling and inportanl trial was not con ducted amidst tbo tear* of the audience, and ’ Mr*.

Thursday Kvenlug, A pril«SO 1837. The body of a man was found yesterday in the Savannah River supposed to have been there some three or four weeks. A split of about three inches was found upon his head, an inquest was held over the body, and the verdict of the jury— “ death by cause unknown.” “ There is no pressure” says the Globe, “ which an barest man should feel,” and to this sentiment the subject of this notice, Reuben M. Whitney, may perhaps respond.—Whitney, it is stated, is in confinement, and has petitioned for the bene fit of the Insolvent Act. Os his liabilities $41,000 is duo to the firm of H. Gates & Co., Canada ; $85,000 to Wiggins & Co., Philailel. phia ; and about $60,000 to other creditors. The amount of his assets estimated at $3,000-—leav ing a resywed balance in his favor of $183,600. MEDICAL COLLEGE.

Ford,and which was also listened to with mani fest pleasure, by a very large and respectable au dience of both ladies and gentlemen. We are much pleased with the interest that our Medical College is now exciting in our community, and with the influence it is beginning to exercise over our Btate. We feel persuaded that its advantages, its splen did Museum, extensive Laboratory, increasing Library, &c. need only to be known, to bo properly appreciated by the medical student. We are happy too to learn, that at a meeting of its Trustees, it was contemplated to create two new Professorships; ono of the Institutes of Medi cine* and Medical Jurisprudence, and the other of Physiology & Pathological Anatomy. We doubt not that competent gentlemen will receive these appointment*, which will increase the number ol Professors in otu Medical College to eight.

We have a file of the Gacela AfercaiJU to 111* I9lh of January inclusive, from which wo hr#,”* - t late the following items. Tho Gacela of the 17th copies from the Uni versal ol Montevideo, a very curious document, being a decree of tiro Supreme Council of Genoa, against Francisco Geronimo Piccatuga.a captain in tho merchant service, on tho accusation of the Sardinian government, condemning him to death and infamy for betraying General Guerrero, tho former President of Mexico, in o tho power of his enemies, at Acapulco, in 1830. It does not ap pear distinctly whether Captain Piccaluga was actually at hand, to suffer the execution of his sentence, but we judge that he was not, the de cree being pronounced en contumacia. Ho was proceeded against as a subject of tho king of Sar dinia, being a native of Genoa, but it seems a rather odd proceeding on the part of his Sardin ian Majesty. Tho decree bears date July 26, 1836. Don Manuel Moreno, for some years minister plenipotentiary of the public to the court of Great Britain, arrived at Buenos Ayres on the 3d of January. His expected return was alluded to in the message of the Governor General, at the opening of the legislative session on the Ist Jan uary. as retarding tho settlement of the claim put forth by the Argentine republic on that of the United States, on account of tho “atrocious in vasion” ol the Falkland Islands by the United blales sloop ot war Lexington. His excellency promised that a minister should be appointed to the United States, for the settlement of this claim, as soon as possible. Sonor Moreno was to visit Washington for that purpose, duly accredited to the United States government, but his impaired health compelled him to give up the mission and proceed direct from England home for Buenos Ayres. 1 he Buenos Ayrcy papers contain no advices from Monte Video. The following of much later date is copied Irorn the Baltimore American. MoNTßvmr.o, Feb. 7, 1837. I hasten to inform ybu of the only news wo have at present in this country. General Frutus who was repulsed in his former attempt to sub due Montevideo, has again entered tho camp at the head of 5000 men, and is rapidly gaining re cruits every day. By tha time you receive this, it is more than probable that lliegovenmient will he in oilier hands. Tho produce of the country i« becoming very scarce, and is rising in value every day. The subjoined extracts of foreign news, from the N. Y. Journal and Evening Post, were received by the Express Mail, of yes terday, and deferred for want of room. From these extracts, as well as from information said to have been derived trom private letters received by the Sheridan, we learn that the commercial embarrassments abroad are beginning to be not less sensibly felt than in this country. The re vulsion is onward—when or where it will be stayed, is for the future to determine. From the New York Journal of Committee, April 15. London, 1 6th March.—Letters received this morning from Liverpool represent the state of the Cotton Market thereto be mom depressed at the present moment then it has been at any peri od fox a very long time passed. The want of money was extremely great, which circumstan ces had led to a continuance of forced sales of the article, and prices were inconsequence going gradually tower. One or two rather excessive , failures have occurred, but (be chief sufferers , from the stats of tho market will of course be the shippere in America, most of whom may be | ' supposed to bava calculated upon obtaining the , high retee which were given last year, and to hevo been regulated by them in fffeir purchases of the new crop from the growers in the South ern districts. Hitherto the advices from New York have announced no stoppages of importance among them ; but it appears to us to be barely I possible that they should be able much longer to struggle with the difficulties to which they are exposed on both sides of the Atlantic, and the only relief that can bo given them sccrns to be in the surrender of the United States’ Bank of the large amount of gold which they have caused to lie withdrawn from the Bank of England, for Go vernment and other purposes. The money mar ket here is iranqpil, but, as we stated yesterday, accommodation is not to be procured of the dis count houses upon any thing like a liberal scale, otherwise than at the full rate of interest. London, March 16—13 o’clock.—By the New York and London line-packet ship Welling ton, arrived at Plymouth, we have accounts ; from that city to the 21st ult. Commercial af fairs in the United Stales arc represented by these , advices to be by no means improved; on the contrary the pressure for money had increased, and tho interest demanded for temporary put po -1 ses was as high as 2to 2 j per ct. per month. Tho Exchange on London is quoted at 9J to J per cent, prom., and U. 8. Bank shares at 117. The favorable intelligence received this morning from the north of Spain has had a considerable influence on the value of Spanish Bonds. An advance has also taken place in the Portuguese market. This is the account day in the Foreign Market, and the settlement is proceeding satis factorily. Nothing of consequence is doing in shares. London, March 17th.—The quiesce..! state of tho commercial money market, which wc have alluded to during tho past two or three days, turns out to be of a very delusive character; and there is but little doubt that the general money market of the country has not yet settled into a permanent state of steadiness. Considerable anx iety prevailed in the commercial and monetary 'vfircles relative to the result of tho mooting of the hank proprietors, which took place to-day. Al though it has frequently been our public duty to comment, in strong terms, upon lire proceedings of the bank direction under certain circumstances, it may he admitted that the directors have ac quitted themselves to the host of their abilities in behalf of the propriety, considering the extremity in which the operation of Mr. Pool’s bill has pla ced them, under all contingencies and citcura , stances. It is not with the bank direction that wo “ wage war, ” but tho system wkich compels them to act always under false monetary princi ples; therefore it will be hut common justice to this vast industrial community that the proceed ings of tiro Bank of England, during the period ot the existence ofjoint stock hanks, should be as strictly investigated, as tho proceedings of the latter. It will he seen that the question of the bank's returns was discussed, partly on the ground that all other joint-stock banks should mako the like returns, and also that those returns were de fective, as regards exact information. That they have not only been most inefficient, but decep tive, sow will he hardly enough to deny; but that the Bank of England requires as much reform as the joint-deck hanks of issue, each passing day affords abundant evidence to prove. Trade of Birmingham, — A deputation from Birmingham waited upon Lord Melbourne on I riday with a memorial relative to tbo suddenly altered and depressed state of trade in that town and neighborhood. Tho deputation was accom panied by several members of Parliament. Rochdale Flannel Maiikkt, Monday Mar ch 13.— -There has been a good deal of business done in flannels to-day ; perhaps more have been sold than on any other market day during the pre sent year; but the piiccsllavo been extremely low Tho demand has bectl chiefly for those of the middling and belter qualities. The wool market has been dull, and very few purchases have been made. • From the New York Evening Post, April 19. FRANCE. A panic respecting tho saving's banks has pre vailed in Paris, which has extended itself to the olhei town*. Tiro sums drawn from the Metrop olitan Savings Bank, within twenty days preced ing March 16, exceed by a million of francs the deposites made in tho same period. At Lisle, a run on the Savings Bank had commenced. Let ters from Lyons represent the slate of trade as deplorable. Thirty thousand human beings are in a stale of extreme destitution. A great manu facturer i* staled to have said at the chambci of Deputies on Tuesday, March 14, that within years tho woollen manufacturers of Franco had never been in so deplorable a state as at pre sent. These lamentable facts are stated to ha»c made a very serious impression on Ministers, and would, it is believed, influence the impending votes the Chamber on tho grants demanded for it.” Ro;"l family and for tho secret police. A Paris Jpurn’ l of Tuesday states positively that tho mimste.B cV’tcmplate dissolving tho Chamber at the close o." the session. Mourner, it is again said, had made tn.\ nor disclosures, and that several of his accompu' 06 * ■ nre now known; but a great deal of doubt n«.’’k s ovcr these circumstances, as his examination are P° n *, ducted in secrecy. Tho British Funds have been rather heavy to day, and doubtless this gloom may be 'attributed o the combined anticipation of the proceedings at tho Bank of England to day, and the result of the division upon the Church Rate Abolition Bill, as a feeling prevails that it will stand no chance in the House of Lords. Rumors of a change of Ministry have also become rife to day. Consols opened heavily at 90 2-0, but railed to 90 1-2 furaccount, but finally closed at 00 3-8, rather sellers and 90 1-8 for money. The New Thrce-and-a Half per Cent. Annuities are 98 1-8 a 1-4. Bank Stock is 20 1-2 far tho opening, and India 258 1-2. Tho premium upon the un funded debt is rather lower, the quotations ruling at from 27 on large bills, and from 27 a29 on small. India Bonds have gone back to 25 to 27 premium; London, March 17.—The share-market genor. ally was in a depressed state. Tho accounts from Liverpool aroofa gloomy nature, both as regards commercial matters and the,' transactions in share and another circumstance has had some weight with the dealers in them, which is the apprehen sion of a dissolution of Parliament, which should it take place, wills abject those railway companies which have not obtained bills, to much delay and additional expense. Death or Mbs. Canning.— Tho Liverpool Mail of the 28lh Match announces tho death oj this lady. She was the Viscountess Canning, \ wife of the former prime Minister George Can ning. Her death raises to the Peerage her son Charles John Canning, who was recently in the 1 House of Commons.

From the New York Herald, April 16. LIVERPOOL, March 18th. We have closed the ninth dull week in our cotton market, and with the exception of a day or two, prices have been ail the time declining. The holders of New Orleans cotton have boen the moat determined sellers throughout ; they have been the leaders of tho market in its down ward course. It is not easy to tell what our pri ces are, hut as near as we can got at them, we would say that good Orleans cotton, frem the highest point within the last three months, has fallen 3 to 3Jd., and Upland and Mobile 2 J to Sd. per lb., one half of which perhaps, may have been lost through tho groat pressure for money— the other half would in all probability have been conceded to tho buyers (even had money matters been in a qeund state) through the apprehension of an over supply; but, from ono cause and anoth er, the shippers of this article have been cruelly 1 punished ; and whether we have yet seen the lowest point appear* to be quite as doubtful as i rvat. . I] Sales for the week—ls, 700 bags. The fol lowing ate our own quotation*, viz;—Upland, or dinary to middling fair, 6 a7; fait to good (air, 7J a 7;j'; good to fine, 8 a 8J ; Orleans, ordinary to middling fair, 6 a 7 ; fait to good fair, 7j a 7ff, good to fine, 8i a 9i a 10; Mobile, ordinary to middling fair, GJ a 7$ ; fair to good fair; 7i a 8 ; good to fine, 8g a 9 ; Tennessee, ordinary to mid dling fair, 6 j a 6 J ; fair to good fair, 7 a 7}; good to fine, 7$ a ; Bca Island, Is 6d to 2s 3d , and extra fine; 2s Cd to 2s Bd, and up to 3s. The market yesterday closed flat, and lower pri ces accepted than than those of any day previous —in short, we have no market price; and we fear the above quotations are too high to square with the bulk of the business done. There is little new Upland cotton here to command over Bd, and the great bulk of it under this price, and Or leans continue to be forced off at whatever the buyers are pleased to give. There is hardly any market to-day—sales only 300 bales, at drooping prices. The daily imports from your side arc large, and are continued to be pressed for sale. Turpentine has improved in value; 2100 bar rels were sold last week at 11s to lls 7<J ; and this week, 1100 at lls 4(1. Rice —the only sale* reported arc 100 bags of East India, at 16s 3d in bond; and about 100 tees, dressed Carolina, at 32s per cwt. duty paid. Grain —there is no al teration, and the market remains steady for wheat and oats; wheat in bond is dull. Some further parcels of centennial sweet Flour have again been taken for exportations, at previous rates. From the New York Herald. Sunday, April 16—I o’clock, P. M. MONEY MARKET. Saturday was another dark day. The news paper accounts from England, brought by the Sheridan, were not half so gloomy as those com municated through private lettersi It appears that the fall in the price of cotton there, has al ready brought down several American houses in Liverpool and London. Wo have hoard of three, if not four, cotton houses that have fallen by their own weight, even before the accounts of our general crash, beginning with the Josephs, . had reached them. It begins now to be the gen eral opinion that as soon as our worst accounts \ shall reach England, every house in the Ameri can trade will he brought down in a single week. The large houses of the Barings and the Wilsons, had already to procure aid, on tho faith that spe cic would be brought from this country. It is said that this aid, to the amount of $5,000,000, was furnished them previous to their last circular, which b ought to a head the crisis herei There , cent operations of the United Slates Bank in bonds and post notes, will not bo satisfactory to tho English bankers. On Saturday the same , impression began to prevail in Wall street. Um , ted Slates bonds have ceased altogether, and the , post notes arc offered at 1$ per cent, per month, for good paper, being at the rate of 13 percent, per annum. Those who want to purchase them, . do so to raise money—so that to get cash for U. . 8. Bank post notes, the ultimate borrower has to . pay 24 to 30 per cent, per annum. Tho post ■ notes of every other bank, should they issue them, j will ho worse than those of the United Stales. Under this state of things, stocks on Saturday generally fell. The United States Bank holds firm because it is the only institution probably do i ing a flourishing business. It is picking Jup all , the best paper in Now York for its bonds and , post notes, and thus will place the banks of Wall , street entirely in its power. . A committee of the Legislature is now here putting questions to certain of the banks. Wc . learn that nothing satisfactory will grow out of i the bank investigation. At this moment, the i great point is to ascertain the stability of the banks and then weather the present hurricane, ■ —not to weaken them by premature exposure or i Useless invesligution. From an aulh-ntic channel wc learn that the aggregate deposites of all our banks amount to $17,500,000, and their specie to $3,200,000. They do not permit themselves to increase their discounts, for fear of an abstraction of their spe cie. Wc believe them to bo perfectly solvent as • far as regards their circulation and deposites, but : the stock ofscvcral will suffer much by the recent failures—piobably out of commercial failures to tho gross amount of $10,000,000, our banks may lose at least 3of $5,000,000. This is the cause i of depreciation in certain bank stocks. 1 COMMERCIAL. AUGUSTA PRICES CURRENT. Revised and corrected srmi-weckhj, for the Chronicle i ijr Sentinel. - ~~ 1— - 1 —• ——— .
