We will thank all Railroad Conductors, Postmasters, Steamboat Captains, Politicians of both sides—and all other such personages to forward to the Henato Orvice) New York, the full and accurate retu of their severe elections, in state, city or town—particularly in the elec tions now at hand in New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsy vant, New York and other states. Those who give us abu early information, will receive our thanks, and be placed on the free /iet of the New York Herald Harex.—An agent is wanted Connecticut. To @ person of sinall capital, activity industry, this agency will yield from $25 to $40 per week profits. None need apply who cannot always pay for his papers in advance, and who will attend to his business in person. Aognt Wantep Fo! for the Herald in New Exrra Henatp To-Day.—An Extra Herald will be published to-day, containing the remarkable pro- ceedings of the Court of Sessions in Col Webb's case. It will be issued as fast as it can be reported —put in type, and printed. Tue Cumton Revorutionary Parers.—We give to-day another very interesting assortment of these papers, from the archives of Col. Beekman. The letter of Col. A. Hamilton, is particularly appropos to the present times—especially as regards national engagements—good faith—and the honor. of the country, Read it, ye repudiators, and learn your duty Tue Next $reamer.—The Boston steamship has now been out fourteen days. We may therefore look fer her news to-morrow ; and in all probability she will bring Bulwer’s new novel of the “ Last of the Barons. ”” The Sentence of Col, Webb In the Court of Sessions to-day—The Millennium at hand. A great deal of interest and curiosity is felt by all classes in this city and neighborhood, relative to the singular scenes that will doubtless be enacted in the Court of Sessions this morning. It is expected that the Millenaium will begin. U this eccasion, one of the most important and novel questions that ever has come up in a Court of Justice, will have to be decided. This question will be, whether the legal and sacred institutions of ci- vil society, established in conformity with the reve- lations of christianity, are to be preserved, or whe- ther the code of honors established in the dark ages of European paganism, and still practiced upon by cliques of vain egotists in the most christian coun- tries, is to be the supreme law of the land, Let the Millennium begin Mr. Webb will this morning be brought up in the Court of Sessions, to receive the sentence of the law trom the lips of the Recorder, under his recorded plea of guilty. The proceedings will probably be in the following order:—The District Attorney will order the officers to put “‘ James Watson Webb to the bar.” This will be done, and the Recorder will order the Clerk to arraign him. The clerk, Henry Vandervoort, will then say in his politest manner, “James Watson Webb you may remember that heretofore you have been indicted for an offence by you committed, &c.; on that indictment you were arraigned for trial, on that arraignment you pleaded guilty, and threw yourself on the meicy of the Court; what have yeu now to say why judgment should nét be pronounced against you, according to law?” Then Mr. Webb will most probably make a long and eloquent speech, giving his reasons,like Colt, why the law is all wrong and he all right; and as the ‘‘ Jour- nal of Commerce” had a very savage comment on him yesterday, he will probably deem it part of the code duello to reply to it; turn the Courts of Justice into a sort of philosophical academy. Then, when Mr. Webb sits down, out of breath, Recorder Tall- madge will pronounce the awful sentence of the law upon the culprit ; this can be not less than two years, nor more than seven years in the State Prison. In doing this, Recorder Tallmadge will probably deli- ver a long and able address, giving his reasons why the vielaters of the laws of the country should be punished with equal and exact justice. As soon a8 this part of the ceremony is over, the Secretary of the Governor, o> perhaps his Counsel will step for- ward with an imposing piece of paper, containing a full pardon for Mr. Webb, and giving more reasons why the established laws of the State should be nul- lified from henceforth and forever. And then Mr. Webb will be surrounded by a set of politicians and others, who will shake his hand, congratulating him on his courage andhonor. Atthis moment the Mil- lenninm begins. Thus it is evident that this will be one of the most novel and curious scenes that ever took place in any court of justice. It will involve the most cu- rious principles. It willindicate the issue of a con- flict between the well settled laws which regulate all christian communities, and those principles which had their origin in the dark and barbarous ages of Europe, and which have been picked up and retailed by modern men of honor for the ad- vancement of their own purposes. It will also de- cide whether, to use Webb’s own classic and chaste phraseology, Grand Juries are,“ so help me heaven, grovelling beings,” and District Attornies “* degra- ded wretches”! or not ; whether our jurors and law officera, and courts, are really of any use atall, and whether it will not be better to do away with the whole of them at once—and send them all to the State Prison, to occupy the cells there,instead of the offenders, and sobegin the Millennium at once. In short, the ecene to-day will be a grand starting point for the next century in morals, crime, religion, politics, finance, murder, robbery, and every thing else, and a great guiding post for the traveller along the high road to honor, glory, or rascality. And if things turn out as we expect they will to-day, we do not see who or what is to prevent our amiable Go- vernor from pardoning Col. Colt, or Col. Monroe Edwards, or any other respectable offerder, with the same nonchalance that he will pardon Colonel Webb. Indeed, we certainly shall desire to see him do so. We are in favor of a general wiping out and clearing out old scores—a general amnesty for cri- minals of every grade. There is not mach doubt now that the laws and rules enacted by a club of fashionable men, over their wine and cards, will do well enough to regulate society, and herefore all thers should be abolished as useless and expensive, We have had an amnesty for bankrupts, and spun- ged out $250,000,000 of debts ; now let us have an amnesty for robbers and murderers, and duellists, and fighting of every kind, and wipe out all punish- ment for all crimes. Let the Millennium begin be- fore Miller’s day. Atany rate,we shall have a great excitement, and a great crowd, and a great scene in the Ses- sions to-day, and as soon as possible afterwards we shall issue the whole affair inan EXTRA HER- ALD. Newsboys will therefore leok out and be ready. Arrociovs Conpuct or a “ Sun” Cannier.—The brutality of Beach seems to have been infused into the carriers in his employment. A highly respecta- ble gentleman named Dean, who keeps a grocery at the Corner of 12th street and the Third Avenue, and who has taken the “Sun” for several years past, chiefly, as he says, because it was useful for wrap- ping up soap and other articles, informed the carrier yesterday morning that he wished to stop the paper, ashe considered that any publication which gave circulation to such blasphemous and scurrilous arti- cles as. that which appeared during the past week, should not be received in any respectable dwelling. The carrier then asserted with a volley of oaths that he would oblige Mr. Dean to continue taking the paper. Mr. D. replied that he would not receive the paper, but that at the expiration of the week he would pay the carrier, wiom he desired immedi- ately to leave his store’; but the scoundrel, instead of doing #0, seized Mr. Dean by the collar, knocked him down,and abused him in a most ferocious man- ner. Mra. Dean, who rushed to the assistance of her husband, was also severely injured. petrator of this bratal assault was, we believe, ar- rested last night The per. | ‘a 1NaTions—Hot Work aMone rue Locorocos.—The pot is boiling over im great tyle at Tammany Hall, and there is hot work | among the locofocos, The fact is, that there are so many aspiring poli- lucians, anxious to go to Congress and to the Legis- | of them were left off the regular ticket. The result of this will be a great row in the wigwam, and the running of about twenty candidates on the stump. ‘This will be rare fun, and will cause the defeat of the entire locofoco ticket. As there is no School Question, Bank Question, the aspirants have brought out an old movement with a new face. the mechanic interests for to-night, to express their sense of party politics. This is only the old game re-vamped by Ely Moore and Tom Carr, with which before Tom went to Tangiers. But this game will the names signed to the call of the meeting are unauthorised. The fact is that a party of those, who have few claims and less talent to entitle them to a nomina- tion, are trying to use the working men as the monkey used the cats’ paws; of this num- ber are Carr, Moore, and several others; and they are trying in this way to overawe the old a band of four hundred round him, with which, on a close vote, he may destroy the Tammany ticket. Moore has about forty areund him. Tom Carr has aclub of about thirty-five. Alderman Leonard has a club of sixty or seventy. Fernando Wood has anothér similar knot of supporters (4), and they are all divided and mixed up in such a manner that it would not surprise us to see the party split into frag- ments. Mangle M. Quackenboss will take the stump in the Five Points District. If he is elected, his time will be taken up with inducing Congress to relieve him of his habilities as surety for Swartwout. But he ought to present a claim of halfa million for Swart- wout ; because he was a defaulter for only $1,500,- 000, when he had an opportunity to take $2,000,000. The greatest opposition, fhowever, comes from the young democracy, and they will be the most troublesome. How many of the old demo- cracy are old rogues, and many of the young demo- cracy are young fools. However, we are rather in favor of the young democracy; because, although many of them are wild and foolish, still they have more moral and political integrity than the old rogues. We shall see what to-night will bring forth. Mike Walsh is to address the meeting, and there will be great sport. Onto Evecrion—Gioomy ror Cuay.—According to all rational appearances, the chances are, that the Ohio election has terminated in favor of the democrats—this too, in spite of the great Dayton Barbecue, and a prodigious effort to wake up *‘ that old coon.” Ina day or two, we will know posi- tively the result—and if our present antivipations are realised, Henry Clay has been defeated, on his principal battle field, and in his first training for 1844. The causes may be attributed to the general coalition of Tyler, Webster, Calhoun, and Van Buren, against Clay. This result must hove a prodigious effect on the approaching el&ctions in New York and Massachu- setts. If all desert poor Clay, we shall have to come out, galvanize him—restore him to life—set up his pins, and give him a fair start for 1844. We always go for these poor souls in distress. The edi- tors, barbers, and backers of Clay, have absolutely broke him down. ‘Alas! poor Yorick!” Don’t despair, Hal. Coonskinina 16 Outo.—The following are the latest returns from Ohi May.

The “Tribune,” conducted by Greeley, M*Elrath and Brisbane, their favorite organ, had some further developements of the new philosophy last week— which is quite original and startling. It seems that these young philosophers, consider Fourier a sort of second Savior of the world, sent upon earth, to re-organize society—and execute what the same mantleft undone. In a day or two, we shall publish a fall and won- derful account from the columns of the “‘ Tribune,” developing these novel, religious, social, and philo- sophical opinions—together with the mode of car- rying their principles into practice, in the formation of society and government, Allthe “‘ young whigs” are perfectly crazy with Fourierism. Stats Dests—How to se Parpo.—Mr. Joseph Blunt, of the American Institute, has published a long and well written paper, proposing a plan to pay the debts of the States, and to prevent repudiation. Itis to be effected by the issue of a national three per cent stock, on the basis of the public lands, to take the place of the stocks of those States that can’t pay. This would certainly effect the object, if it could be done. Ancther plan, proposed by John Smith, would be to extend the benetit of the bankrupt law to those States, and enable them to go through the mill, a8 private individuals are now doing, for a somewhat greater amount. American Consut To Amsterpam.—Mr. Nichols, formerly a highly respectable merchant of this city, and connected by marriage with the family of Gen. Romaine, is appointed American Consul at Amster- dam, and will probably sail for Havre, in the lowa, on the 24th inst. Mr. Nichols is a very intelligent and worthy man —will make an excellent commercial agent—and is deserving of the confidence and choice of the Executive. When Mr, Nichols reaches his desti- nation in Amsterdam, we have no doubt he will take the earliest means to ‘place before the public of that capital, the resources, the means, and the determination of the States, and the people of the United States, to pay their foreign debts with ho- nor and promptitude. News-—Enrerrnise.—The “Evening Post” pub- lishes two paragraphs—one taken from the “ Efats Unis,” giving a list of emigrants at this port—the other taken from the ““Madisonian,” on smuggling on the Canada frontier, both of which first appeared in the Herald of last week, Is it any wonder that such newspapers fall away, and give up the ghost?

Wuia Baooxtys Nominations.—The whigs of Kings county, at Brooklyn, last evening nominated Samuel Oakley and Nicholas Wyckoff, as candidates for the Le gislature for that county. Mretina or Mecuanics.—There will be @ large meet- ing of Democratic Mechanics st Tammany Hall to-night. Mike Walsh has been invited to address the meeting, and will do s0 at 7 o'clock precisely. Courry Covrt.—This Court will be convened to-day at four o’clock, to try the impeachment against Justices Matsell, Stevens, and Parker, for committing the crime of discharging some few vagrants from Blackwell’s Island, and thus relieving the city from the expense of their sup- port. crime that has been committed by every police magistrate since the city created the office. More or rue Youno Bunatams.—John Clark and James Hughes, the two boys who were arrested on Sun- day, wore recognized yesterday as being the rogues who entered the office of John I. Gantz, at the corner of East Broadway and Scammel street, on the night of Saturday last, and destroying a number of valuable memorandums and account books, by turning them on the floor of the office. Four keys belonging to the office were found in possession of Hughes, when he was arrested by Asssstant Nash on Seturday might, in thejoftice of the tered for We parpine of stealing, end for watch they wan e of stealing, and for wi were point ak a 4 nor Lirrens.—Two negro wenches named Ann Fin- ney and Mary;Skinner, were arrested by efficers Hilliker and James 8. Smith, yesterday, for apiece of silk containing sixty yards,from the dry goods store of N. 8. & T. Donnelly, reet, on the 18th instant, valued at $45. A portion of the stolen goods were found in their possession, and they were fully committed. Cierx or 4 Maaxer Darownev.—James Marshall, clerk of Greenwich market, aged 50 years, while on a fishing excursion down the ‘ey on Bandsy, wen. eccl- dentally knocked overboard by the boom of the boat, while she was in the act of jit ly was disco. His bod; vered last night on Cummunipeu flats, and brought to this city. ‘We understand that there were no less than forty appli cants for his situation before 12 o'clock yesterday. SmorHerep.—Charles Henry Chase, a child four months old, was accidently smothered on Sunday night by being overlaid by his mother. Qq- Fraycis Hatt, the principal proprietor of the “ Commercial Advertiser,” and a native of Eng- land, too, accuses us of the crime of being a foreigner, because we published a simple fact of a sale of real estate, and thinks it an evidence of want of pa- triotism on our part. When will these men learn sense, and how to make a paper honest and popular? A Warninc to THE Poor.—Take care of the new Malone bank notes, just issued from Frauklin county. Ask little Biddle about their origin—ask Jackson- ville—ask Ulster. Curtous.—The Texan fleet are lying at New Or- leans, unable to get to sea for want of funds. On the 8th instant, the Mexican brig Rosa Aloina, cleared at that port for Vera Cruz. She quietly passed by the Texans, and went to sea. Thus one valuable prize was lost for want of a few dollars. Goine Angav.—The powerfully efficacious ex- tractof Sarsaparilla, sold by the College of M cine and Pharmacy, at their princ lice, 97 Nassau street. This medicine is |:.guly recom- mended by the medical profession, and of all they say about its virtues be true, the bills of mortality must be diminished by its use. Mercantite Lisrary Assoctarion.—The anni- versary of this valuable institution takes place on the 9th of Nov. It will be a very interesting occa- sion;{but the committee still persist in keeping up the price of the tickets to $3 and $5. This is caused by asmall clique, who endeavor to imitate the stale fashions of Wallstreet. They had better put their price down to $1. For Enouanp.—The beautiful packet ship Eng- land sails to-morrow for Liverpool. She is one of the very best of our crack packets, always makes short passages, and her commander, Capt. Ben. White, is one of the best captains and agreeable companions that ever crossed the Atlantic. Mrs. Sutrow’s Concert.—This lady’s first con- cert of the season takes place to-night at the Apollo Rooms. Jt will be a most brilliant affair. She will be assisted by Signor de Begnis, Mr. Kossow- ski, and Mons. Chatel, the celebrated violinist. In addition to all, there will be great attraction in her beautiful little daughter, who will appear and sing two songs in costume. fi Miss CrarEnpon is giving her dramatic readings at the Society Library. Her first course will be given to-night. She is a young lady of great talents and great personal attractions. Cart Kina’s Boxners.—We refer our female readers to the advertisement of Carl King. He has stood at the head of his line in this city for years ; the taste and skill of his lady, and his own enter- prise, are unrivalled; hence they have always the best and most beautiful assortment of bonnets in the city. Couman’s Literary SaLoon continues to be crowded with strangers, who appear to be astonish- ed to find so valuable a collection of paintings and works of vertu in this country. We add, let every body who has a taste for the fine arts, visit Mr. Colman'’s Gallery of beautiful Oil Paintings, they will not go away dissatisfied. Great Doves at Castix Garpen to-pay.—See notice under head of the Fair, and advertisements. Should the weather not permit of this coming off, according to advertisement, there will be white pe displayed at the City Hall, the Battery, and Niblo’s.

(Correspondence of the Herald.) Barrmmorg, Oct. 17, 1842. The following significant announcement J take from the mast head of the Republican and Argus, of Saturday last. I am free to acknowledge the candi- date announced is @ prominent one, and has long since distinguished the party of which the journay wherein it appeared is the advocate :— “ Our Canpipate ror tHe Paestency.—The Balti- more correspondent of the ‘ New York Herald,’ states that the ‘ Republican and Argus’ will announce its candidate for the Presidency on Saturday, (to-day.) Now, he shall not be disappointed; we therefore raise the following at our mast head :— “Union, Megorog cocoa yrange nlf Aaa for the cause —nothing for men "Thies the candid we bsreainays supported, and mean to support. We urge hir claims upon the consideration of the National Conven. tion, and will cheerfully abide its decision.” I amrather inclined to the seniog that our good natured, saucy friend, of the Republican, had de- signed coming out with the name of the Kinder- hook cabbage monopolist, M. Van Buren, at the head of his columns, but finding you had anticipa- ted him by extraordinary ex thought he would postpone it for a short season. To take upon him- self the prerogative of deciding so grave a matter was perhaps, on reflection, conceived too momentous for asmall man, and he therefore gave up to the more august decision of a National Convention. If, how- ever, the geerings of the pesty, of which he 18 one of the great regulators, move no more harmonious- ly at the general National Convention than they did at the Maryland State Convention, held here some time since, I apprehend he will even then be under the necessity of taking down his present!candidate. or he will exhibit a sad contradiction. ie Cig sive words in capitals— Union— Harmony, &c., have all along been conceded tv ourLocofoco friends as their primary virtues, but very much fear they will ill accord with the conflicting claims of John C. Calhoun of the South, Martin Van Buren of the North, Thomas Benton, and R. W. Johnson of the West, Captain Tyler of Virginia, James M. Buchanan of Pennsylvania, and John Jones of the Madisonian. It is not every mountain, apd valley, and hill-top, and plain, and rivulet that will re-echo with one accord the name of either of those herein mentioned. Jealousy is already in the camp infus- ing her poisonous insinuations when it is little ex- pected, nor will her importunities be silenced until some poor devil be quenched under the hydra head of uprorious faction. A want of the same virtue contained in the conspicuous motto of the parasr h abcve, viz., “‘ Union, Harmony,” Xc., defeated the whigs in the late election in this State. Let them, then, learn a lesson, take warning, and prepare to meet the future. " ¢ ‘ Your intelligence relative to the Ohio election may, and doubtless will, be in advance of ours. The latest that we have received renders it very uncer- tain who has been elected Governor, and almost certainly es. the locofocos a aie in both houses. This is not exactly the result that was an- ticipated, but it has no bearing on the Presidential contest, two years hence—no more than had the. State elections prior to the victorious triumph of Gen. Harrison. We know not what two years may bring forth. | K Our municipal election takes place to-day for mayor and members of the council. Jacob Small, Esq., an independent candidate, is out in oj ition to Col. S. Hillen. vee and democrats, owever, are determined to vote for Col. Hillen. He will be elected by a very large majority. There is very little excitement. : Counterfeit two dollar notes on the Bank of Bal- timore have just made their appearance. They are well executed, and calculated to mislead. A meeting of the State Agricultural Society isto be held at Govenstown, commencing on Wednes- day next. A number of very fine productions per- ing to agriculture, will be on the ground for ex- jon. The raves over the Kendall course commence to- morrow. They are expected to aflord fine sport. Boston is on the ground ; but whether he will run or not is not yet determined. They were training him yesterday. 1 shall keep you advised of the re- sult. The vals most favorable. ours, Ropericx. Navau.—The United States steamer Poinsett, ar- rived yesterday from Norfolk. The following isa list of her officers:—John A. Davis, Lieut. Comd., John K. Duer, Passed Midshipman; George W. Harrison, Midshipman ; James Atkinson, Chief En- gimeer ; Azariah Fuller, Captain’s Clerk. Lots or Happiness ror Sate.—We learn that there are several small lots of human happiness for sale at the store of Henriques, 51 William street. This remedy for human ills is put up in small deti- cate packages, six inches long, half an inch thick, and are generally called “ choice Havana segars.” Call and try. Nisto’s.—The Ravels appear to-night in their fa- mous piece of M. Dechalumeau, (in which Gabriel is the very personification ot fun and blunderism) and the Night Owl. Madame Javelle also makes her second appearance. This lady’s dancing on the rope, is most extraordinary; her performances, were loudly applauded last night. CuatHam Tueatre.—This evening has been set apart for the benefit of that unapproachable panto- mimist, Mr. Wood, and an exceedingly rich and en- tertaining bill is offered for the occasion. Two other celebrated pantomimists are to to appear, with a very clever performer on the slack rope. A new drama, entitled the Shipwrecked Orphan, will be produced, and the evening’s entertainments con- clude with Tumour the Tartar. GG Dr. Valentine, who is now engaged to give hi* comic delineations of character at the American Mu- seum, is decidedly the most eccentric and original per- former, we have listened to this side the Atlantic. His imitations are, in our opinion, far superior to Matthews. None should fail to hear him. His lecture on phre- nology, is the best take off we ever heard. Crowds of in telligent visitors are attending the Museum of late. It will beseen, that an unusual variety of attractions are put forth this week, and the performances take place every afternoon and evening. QG If the Manager of the New York Museum has not found the philosopher's stone, he has discovered a very good substitute in the tact and energy he evinces, tor he is literally coining money, ond he deserves it. He was the first to introduce an effectual reform ; others have since followed the example, but necessity and not incli- nation compelled them. His act was voluntary, and cre- dit is due to him on that account. 6 performances this week are very attractive. There is a wonderful dwarf, thirty-six inches high, &c.

IMMENSE SALE OF SARSAPARILLA— It is only a few weeks since the “College of Medicine and Pharmacy of the City of New York” offered to the notice of the public, a new and powerful Extract of Sarsaperil- la, at a greatly reduced price. A very large quantity was manufactured then in order to meet the anticipated de- mand, and already has this really immense stock been dis of, being more than some venders of this article in awhole year. A fresh supply is now ready of the same superior quality, and the College have made ar- Tangements for the manufacture of the article on a more stupendous scale. The root will now be imported direct from South America, and the public will hence- forth be secured from the ‘possibility of having an indif- ferent and spurious article palmed upon them. This is the liberal and philanthropic manner in which the mem- bers of the College would (us they trust they may be par- doned in saying) extinguish all sorts of medieal imposture. ‘The virtues of sarsaparilla are so well known, that refe- rence to them is unnecestary.

Sales to-day 134 \4, Some speculation is apparent in this paper, probably on account of the State Bank, the President of which has recently been here. At Mobile on the 10th, rates had fur. ther receded about 2 percent, and were nearly nominal.— Drawers had been very reluctant to yield to the decline, but the indifference of buyers, and a general expectation that rates would go still lower, contributed to render par- ties uneasy and quite anxious to sell. The Bank of Mo. bile was checking ou New York at 22 per cent premium, Specie scarce, and in good request for remittances to New Orleans. There is some anxiety in relation to the expected news by the Boston boat, which may reach here to-morrow.— Hopes are strongly entertained that some disposition to in_ vest in American securities may have grown out of the abundance of money and the scarcity of means of invest. ment in the London market. The Mechanics’ aud Traders’ Bank has declared a divi- dend of three and one half percent, payable on and ofter the lst November next, The City Bank has declared a dividend of four per cent payable on and after the 1st Nov. next. The Union Bank has also declared a dividend of four per cent, payable on and after the Lat Nov. next. ‘The low state of foreign exchanges throughout the At. lantic ports issuch that theold manner of purchasing the crops on lettersof credit cannot be now undertakenwithout serious less. Hence those who send specie to make their operations obtain a great advantage over others. In Eng- land there was at the latest dates every prospect of a revi- val inthe home trade, which is that which requires the greatest consumption of cotton. The elements of this re- vival were first, the low prices of articles of food, and se. condly, the abundance of money created by the Bank of England, apparently with a view to assist in restoring quiet by stimulating business and speculation, thereby to remove the cause of the complaints. In regard to the first of these causes, it was estimated in parliamentary com. mittee, by Mr. Gladstone, that the consumption of corn in England was equal annually to 22,000,000 qrs. This esti- mate received general approbation from the highest au- thorities. It has now been ascertained that in conse, quence of the late tariff operating upon an abundant har- vest, prices of grain will rule about 10s. less than formerly. This will give about £11,000,000, released from the pur- chase of food, and applicable to other purposes. The re- duced price of other provisions will, it is estimated, pro- duce the same result, whereby about £20,000,000 or $100,- 000,000 of the wages of the lower and middle classes will be applicable to the purchase of manufactured goods this year beyond what was the case last year. This is an ele- ment of recovery in that trade. Another isthe abundance and low prices of the raw material ; but this, from exist- ing circumstances here, must be paid for, at least a good partofit, in specie. The present abundence of money in England and the continent, will enable this to be done, temporarily at least, without much difficulty. Already large sums are setting this way for that purpose. New Or. leans now is, and will for some menths continue to be, great central point for the accumulation of these precious metals, because from that port the greatest proportion of cotton, as well as other articles of agricultural produce, ere shipped. From 50 to $60,000,000 per annum of produce reachesthat port. The peculiar position of the banks of that city will, however, prevent the influx of spocie from creating any paper expansion, the banks being in discre- dit. Since July, near $1,000,000 of specie has arrived in that port, and its effect upon the banks is seen in the following table of the circulation of the banks, with the specie they own, and the amount specially deposited with them for safe keeping, and to be withdrawn at the pleasure ofthe owner :— Srrcre anv Cicutation or tHe Bangs or New Ox- August.

This will undoubtedly go up the river in the payment of the large amounts of produce which must find their way down to market, and leave New Orleans for,the West India islands and South America, at all of which places exchange is in favor of New Orleans, and the flow of speeie will be accelerated to her shores, and find its way to the owners throughout the western coun- try. Though something late, a famous prophecy is about to be fulfilled, viz: “ that gold will flow up the Missis- sippi.” ‘The difference between paper prices,and the'present low rates of specie produce in New Orleans,is greatly in favor of an extended and lucrative trade with the West Indies. A late official document contained the following state- ment of a shipment from New Orleans to Havana, in order to show the less. Theprices were at a time of suspen- sion :— Pro Forma of a Canco ~ gs fh Oarrans To Havana, 15 28,292 lbs lard, syioo ibs hams, ui Jon Amount of duties, * ‘sate Nett value, re R 6,208 0 Forma at present Ratue. 650 bbis, at $3, 1,950 : 750 Ibs lard, 6, 1,697 1 9,400" hams, 6, ‘o io eto 4,319 13,708 Daties, H ‘Lhis would make a difference of $1,200 in the profits of the voyage. A further start to the business in flour is to be given by the erection of a steam mill at New Orleans, for the grinding of western wheat. This operation will no doubt enable western wheat to compete with northern flour in the markets of the West Indies. When the crops of westeru and northern wheat are harvested, the rivers which leed through th Valley of the Mississippi are suf- ficiently high to get it to market; but before this wheat can be manufactured into flour, the rivers are too low for navigation, aad there is a sort of hiatus of about six weeks in which old flour is sour, or full of weavils, and no new flour is in the market. A flour mill located at New Or- Jeans would obviate all this. They could have fresh flour every dey in the year, and at « period when the Southern and West India markets are least stocked, and people most anxious to purchase, they could be amply accommo. dated, and would greatly tempt the farmers of the west, by bringing them more directly and speedily in contact with the market of consumption. The sugar duty, how- ever, stands in the way of any permanent increase inthe business, because the people of Cuba cannot always pay coin for it. A general eventual rise in prices, and activity in trade, must be consequent upon the repletion of the whole coun. try with a specie currency. The activity of the precious metals, while they ensure the prompt and full remunera- tion for labor, gradually purge off the surplus products of the country, and promote a healthy rise in thevalue of the remainder, under the effective demand of those who have the means of making actual payment. Such a state of prosperity is not subject to distrust, loss of confidence, or sudden revulsion, because the cure for a gradual infla- tion, by these means, is brought about by a depletion as gradual and natural, producing no perceptible effects upon the fortunes of substantial men.
