IMPORTANT Decision as TO NON-RESI- pent TRA f Justice Scott, of the Supreme Bench of Baltimore, on Saturday de- livered an opinion in the case of Henry Dresc- her. a non-resident trader, arrested and com- mitted to jail on the 11th of December last, on the charge of violating an act of the (jenerat Assembly of Maryland, which forbids any pe: son not s permanent resident of the State o! fering of exposing for sale goods, wares, Kc., without first having obtained a license to doso. Judge Scott argues Unat the Constituiion of the United States does not give any control to Cone gress over the dom: trade of the States, and concludes as follows of the opinion that our State act in question is not in violation of the Constitution of the United States, and that the petitioner has no cause of complaint.” BAN OnstinaTE JURO! the Harrison, Ind men Pleas Court, a civil case was tried, on which It jurors soon arrived at a verdict.

The relaxation in the New York moaey mar- ket was quite decided Saturday, the prevailing rate for all loans being seven per cent curren- cy.

There is no change to note in Commercial paper, except, perhaps, a little more mquiry. The failure ofa Boston dry goods house slightly revived apprehension, and names were more closely scrutinized. The weekly statement of the associated banks sbows a bighly favorable condition of affairs, ard readily accounts for the ease in money and the strong speculative feeling in the geaerat market, The inerense in the item of specie is over $6,500,000, xecounted for by the paymen ot the government gold interest due January 1, but whieb did notsettle into the banks until the beginning of the week.
