English Advertisements. Tn our columns this day will be found various English advertisements, to give publicity to which the New York Herald has been selected, as the paper best calculated to give to them a wide circu- Jation. In Europe no American paper has so ex- tensive a circulation as the Herald, nor is any paper on this continent inet with so frequently from one extreme to the other. The Herald is the best ad- vertising medium, not merely fora county ora State, buat for the world, fer it is found everywhere, even at the boundaries of civilization, hence English traders who have articles to advertise, send their announcements across the Atlantic thet they roay have the benefit of our circulation—and we have arrangements ia progress which will improve this general system and make the Herald more valuable than ever’as an advertising medium. French Line of Steamships—Weekly Mail to EKurope—News Arrangements. We are pleased to have it in our power to state, that the line of magnificent steamers established by France to girdle the Atlantic, will commence ope- rations early next Spring. This line iste be com- posed of fourteen ships, equal in point of speed and beauty to any now afloat. We have obtained a correct jist of their names which we give for tuture guidance :— Names or Steamers. P te Darien, c es a Caribbee, Labrafe Cacique, rernland, ElDorado. teruma, Albatross, These vessels are nearly completed, and the Christophe Colombe, the pioneer of the line, wil! be ready to leave France soon after the Gomer, which is now at Pensacola, returns home. This Gomer has been absent some months from France, end has visited the chief ports in South America and the West Indies, tor the purpose of making suitable arrangements for the new line ; andall that is now necessary to perfect the orga- nization ef the steamships, is for the Minister of Marine in France to receive the result of the labors of the commissioners on board the Gomer. It isun- derstood that four of them will run between France and New York, and the remaining ten to different ports in Brazil, in the West Indies, and to Pensa- cola, making the latter port the south-western ter- minus of the line. These extensive arrangements, and the ploughing of the first furrow in the Atlantic by the pioneer steamer, will give a fresh impulse to ocean steam navigation. Prior to the establishment of this stu- pendous and magnificent line, attempts to tra- verse the broad, roaring Atlantic, with full success, have almost all proved abortive. The great British ‘West India line utterly failed—the Belgian line failed—the Dutch attempt ended in smoke, which is, however, characteristic of the people—the Trans-Atlantic line failed—and the Cunard line would have failed, but for the assistance, inthe shape of passengera, from New York, and the aid it received from the British Government. The Great ‘Western is the only really successful steamer that ever floated on the bosom of the Atlantic, and she rans to this city. The starting of the pioneer of the French lines for these happy shores will net onlygive animpulse to ocean sieam navigation, but to the enterprise of the New York Herald establishment also. Mr. Bennett, who is now in France, has made ample errange- ments for the transmission, by the steamships, of news fromevery part of the world, which we shall be enabled to publish in fiiteen to thirty miautes afver the arrival of each packet. The same arrange- ments have aiso been made in England for the Cu- ward steamers. This impulse, too, will extend in this city, and spread throughout the United states —thronghout the world. This country and Europe will be brought closer together—to a family em- brace—by the annihilation of space, and the re- ault must be plain to every person Let every one ponder on this. Decrease or Businsss—Incrgask or Taxes.— Under the money head of to-day’s paper will be found some interesting items in relation to the as- sessed value of real and personal estate in this city for a series of years, with the increase of taxes and population. The resulis are, that since 1836, that year of water lot speculations, the value of real es- tate has declined 30 per cent, the city importations of goods have fallen 75 percent, and the taxes in- ereaeed 100 per cent. Are not these matters of grave consideration for every citizen? Let him reflect why it is that such enormous changes are brought about in his business affairs. The matter stands thus— 5 Real Estate. Imports. Taxes. Population. 3038 000° 118,000,000 1,080,000 250,000 16a 164 54 37,000,000 2,085, 350,000 Decrease $68,049,496 1,000,000 — — Increase = bad 1,005,000 100,000 There are now 160,000 more people than in 1836 ‘The real estate has declined in value nearly $200 per head, and the import trade alone $230 per head fer the whole population. The taxes in the same time bave increased $3,00 per head; of the latter 250,000 is the State mill tax for money squandered by the Ene Railroad Company. The decline in ihe import trade has been mostly the consequence of the present prohibitive tariff. The trade of the city is abeolutely destroyed by party legislation for the benefit of eastera manufacturers. With the decline 1 trade the value of real estate is of courte depreciated. People lose their business, and are turned out of employ. The politicians, taking advantage of their distress, put their thumbs on their noses and say, “ you must elect us to remedy these things.” The lawyere and politicians will, if they are allowed, enact reetriction after restric- tion, until the people will not be allowed to breathe an east wind for fear it comes from England, and will therefore be ** anti-American.” Among the curious evidences that have been ad- duced of the benefits of the encouragement given to domestic manufactures, is the stock market. ‘The bonds of repudiating Siates have risen some 200 per cent since its passage, and prices are now eo high that it is said it will do to recommence the manufacture. The State officers are busy brush- ing up their old “ scrip machines,” and fresh lots may be forthcoming at present prices; interest will be paid, confidence restored, aad State honor rub- bed up until it shines like a brase dollar. The clause of the tariff which especially protects the manufac- turer of bonds, is that which prohibits the importa- tion of obscene prints. Movements ov tue Canixer.—The Hon. Charles A. Wickliffe, the Post Master General, was at Lou- isville on the 19th inst. > It is said thal Mr. Collector Curtis has sue- pended Newman and St. John, the two Custom House officers who disturbed the Van Buren ‘meet- ing in the Park on Monday fe Mr. Webster was in Philad phiaon Monday & Mrs. Bailey has returned to this city.

Haare or Wasninoton.—There was very little sickness iast week EW YORK HERALD. | 93 * Senses Saensas—tucoee- Hee eee ray aETeT ‘The ward meetings ot the Dem*cratic party of this city, to select delegates to Tammary Holl, who are to nominate candidates for Senator, Sheriff, Coroner, County Clerk and A-sembly, to be elected this fall, are held to-day, aud in several there will be warm work, bloody noses and darkened peepers The importance of this reeult, in a personal sense, will be seen when it is known that there are some hundred candidates in the field, all striving to ob- tain chance for preference. This will draw forth much personal feeling at the several poll districts, which will terminate in aught but quiet and order. Inthe First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Ninth and Fourteenth Wards, there will be a close contest between the Van Buren and anti- Van Buren factions, aided and assisted by personal predilections for certain candidates. The promi- nent candidates for Sheriff are John J. Westervelt, the present popular deputy, Alderman Emmans, of the Sixth Ward, Harry Atwood. of the Seventeenth Ward, Alderman Hatfield, of the Eleventh, and some dozen others. For CountyClerk,James Connor, the type tounder, Samuel Osgood, recent Deputy County Clerk, Aldermau Waterman, of the Ninth Ward, and Assistant Alderman Smith, and some twenty others. For Coroner, Dr. Archer, the present incumbent, ex-Alderman Nash, Dr. Van Zant, and some thirty others, good, bad, and indifferent, few of whom are in any way qual- ified to perform the duties of the office. For Senate and Assembuly all the young fledgling law- yers of the party, some twenty of other professions, with little brains e.nd less common sense, and half a dozen capable, able, and honest men, who stand the least chance of the lot. The ensuing election will therefore be: one of great interest to politicians, as it settlesthe choice of three of the most impor- tant offices within the gift of the people for the space of three years. The aspect of political, might add partizan affairs, in this city, is st peculiar at this period, and wiil be fraught with strange resulis at the November election. The whig party were never better organized since the days of Tippecanoe and Tyler too, and the demo- cratic party were never in a more distracted posi- tion—arising mainly from the ill-tempered and ill- advised course of their partizan organe, who have been the principal means of sowing discord and dissension. The nominations by the democratic party at Tammany Hall, it is presumed from the tenor of the Van Buren press, will be made solely from the Van Buren ranks, and all dissenters, or those who may have a firat preference for any other candidate for the Presi- dency, will be thrown overboard as entitled to no benefits or party emoluments. Sucha course will arouse the opposition of the disappointed applicants, wno, with the elements already ignited, will fan a flame not easily quenched. The result, therefore, will probably bea nomination of a second set of democratic candidates, who will be presented,at the general meeting at Tammany Hall, for con- currence ; and nought brt conciliation by the Van Buren press, and conciliation by the Van Buren partizans, will ever prevent sucha result. A third ticket thus engendered, with a selection of good, honest, able and capable men, of business habits, as candidates, will receive the support of from two to three, perhaps five thousand democratic voters. The whig party, notwithstanding the false lights and contemplated movements ef one of their partizan sheets, will come into the field with one of the strongest tickets ever nominated, with Morris Franklin for Senator, at its head. They will, therefore, poll ‘a full party vote, which will bring them within a few thousand of their opponents. It, therefore, a third ticket should be nominated, as now appears to be very probable, the chances will be in favor of the success of the whig party, who may thus luckily secure the whole county ticket. We throw out these suggestions in order that either and all parties can take just as much advantage of each other as they please; and also to show our party rid den community the necessity of compelling each party to select men for nomination to these impor- tant offices in which the public have implicit con. fidence. None others can be elected this fall, not- withstanding any and every attempt to force them upon the people by party tactics. The time has gone by when eorrupt party presses, and still more corrupt partizan leaders, can compel the indepen- dem voters of this city to swallow any and every- thing they may feel disposed to present as candi- dates. EpiscopaL Convention.—The fifty-ninth annual Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church for the Bastern diocese of New York, was commen- menced at 10 o’clock yesterday morning, in St. Paul's church in this city. There was a very full attend- ance both of clergy and laity, and many clergymen were present from other Dioceses,among whom was the Bishop of New Jersey. Divine service com- menced at 10 o’clock. The service was read by the Rey. A. T. Twing of Lansingburgh—the lessons by the Rev. 1. Pardee, of the Church of the Redemp- tion in ‘this city. The Ante-Communion service was read by the Right Rev. the Bishop of New Jer- sey, and the epistle by the Right Rev. the Bishop of New York. The Bishop of New York then delivered the fourth in the series ef Charges he has addressed to his Diocese on the Origin and Doc- trines of the Church. It was a continuation of the same general subject to whicn he has called the attention of his clergy for the last three years. The spirit of the charge was candid, conciliatory, and designed by the Bishop not to give wnneces- sary oflence to such of his presbyters as may differ from him in opinion respecting the points which he deemed it his duty to discuss. The subject chosen by him embraced points which have been the source of great uneasiness among those whe look with ap- prehension upon Fuseyism; but whether they will har:aonize with their Bishop, and assent to the de- velopment of his opinions,we are unable to surmise. Of one thing all mnst have been convinced, that there was no disposition manifested by the Bishop, to provoke hostility on the part of any one who might differ from him on these points. Immediately af er the close of the charge, the offertory was read by the Rt. Rev. Bishop Doane, of New Jersey, and offerings were made on behalf of some benevolent object, we believe for the bene- fit of the Tract Society of the Episcopal Church. The communion was then administered to the clergy and Jaity present, by the Rt. Rev. Bishops Onderdonk and Doane, aided by several presby- ters. Itappears to be expected that the ordination of Mr. Carey and the Puseyite question will enter into the discussions of the Convention during its sitting; and if it be so an unusual interest will be given to this annual assemblage. Avsurn Seminary.—The Rey. Dr. White, for- merly of the Allen street Church, but now Profes- sor of Theology in the New York University, has received a call to the presidential chair in the Au- burn Seminary, vacant by the death of Dr. Rich- ards. Society at Baton Rover.—A man named Wil. liam Pearson recently killed another named Can- dero, in a gambling aflray at Baton Rouge. Also, another named Stockwell, killed himself on the 8th instant. Yetvow Fever at St. Jaco.—An arrival at Sa- vannah reports that the yellow fever was raging at St. Jago de Cuba with much violence. Several British vessels in port on the 28th of August, were unable to go tosea for want of hands. Fever in New Onzeans.—The fever has assumed an epidemic form.

Another Murder Trial in New Jersey. Yesterday the Court. Oyer and Terminer the County ef Hudson, New Jersey, was opened at Bergen Five Corners. Chie! Justice Hornblower, and Judge Van Winkle, De Kay, Van Buskirk, and Luikins, constituted’ the Court. The firet case te- ken up was the trialof John Grahem and Joseph Lammer, who stund indicted for the murder of An- drew Carey, on the 13th of August last, at Harei- mus, neer Jersey city. The counsel for the prose- eution are Mr. Hardenburg, the public prosecutor, Mr. Whitehead and Mr. Ogden; and for the prisen- er, Mr. James M. Smith, of New York, Mr. Mil- ler, the Hon. Mr. Hulstead, Ex. M.C., and Mr. Dadley Selden, of New York. The first witness called was David Bedford, a tavern keeper at Harsimus, near whose house the death of Casey was occasioned; but as the circum stances attending the commission of this crime were published in the Herald at the time it was committed, it will be unnecessary to repeat them now. It will be sufficient to state that the prison- ers, who are understood to be both Irishmen, were quarrelling between themselves, and it is alleged that the deceased interfered between them, and ex- citing the ire of beth, was by both beset and beaten to death. The question of Irish Re- peal was in some measure the subject of dispute, which so inflamed them as to lead to the perpetration of this atrocity. The only question for the Court and Jury which this trial presents is the degree of guilt cf the accused parues—whether they are guilty of murder. or of manslaughterjonly. The attempt of the prisoners’ counzel will of course be to bring it within the lat- ter designation, for the killing cannot be,nor is not, denied. _ . The wives of the prisoners and the daughter ot Bedtord, in whose presence, if we mistake not, the homicide was committed, are in court in great dis- tress, and a very exciting scene is acorns The court is crowded in every part, and the trial seems to excite much interest in that neighborhood. As the court met but at 3 o’clock, P. M., but lit- tle progress was made in the trial, but it will be re- sumed this morning at 9 o’clock. 7 We understand there is a case of bigamy to be tried during the term. Quackery.—-The following ingenious notice, professedly of a new bi-monthly periodical, which appeared ina New York paper of the 15th inst., isa fair sample of the daily puffing process, by which a certain class of physicians in this city sastain each other—no matter how unimportant or unsuccessful their practice—and is now republished for the bene- fit of their brother chips in other cities. New Yorx Jouanat or Mepicine axp THE COLLATERAL Sciznces—Edited by Samuel Forrey, M. D.—The second number of this valuable journal has come to hand. Tne origina) department is, as usual, rich and instructive. Dr Foltz has again contributed largely to its es. Dr. F. reports one of the most extraordinary surgical operat hn has ever been performed in this country. It wai which both ovaria had been successfully |. Itseemsfrom the bibliographical account of tion, that Dr. McDowell of Kentucky, performed it first and more successtully than any other man in the world—and that Dr. Alban Goldsmith of this city isthe second most successful operator in this, the greatest feat ot modern surgery. Dr. David L. Rogers of this city, has likewise pertormed it once. We notice this particularly, because we take it to be a matter of congratulation, that New York talent has heen able in this, as in many opera- tions, to perform successfully that which has again and again baflled the skill of the best talent in Europe. Some idea may be had ofthe immensity of this operation, when it is remembered that it is done by laying open the «bdo- men, and removing from the midst of the intestines tu. mors as large asa man’s head. This, too, while the pe tient is writhing in agony, and the operator moving his knife through the mass of intestines that protrude from the wound. We notice also from the note book ot that talented and able operator, Dr. Jno. Watson of this city, an interesting case of spina bifida, success{ully operated upon by Dr. Stevens. ‘The resume of Dr. Lee's work on dietaries, by the able editor, is full of practical interest, so much so that we mean to presentadigest. We commegd this journal to the support of the profession. And we as- sure the editor that when he can cemmand for his pages thecontributions of such men as Francis, Mott, Gold- smith, Stevens, Watson, Foltz, and the like, he can eamly outstrip with our immense hospital facilities any journal in the country. The following extracts, from Cooper’s Dictionary of Practical Surgery, with notes and additions by D M Reese, M. D.—J. & J. Harper, New York, 1830—will give a fair view of the dependence that may be placed upon the statements of the class of physicians before mentioned :— Ovarian Tomors.—‘‘ The first attempt to remove them by an operation was made in 1776, by L. Aumonier, surgeon in chief of the Hospital in Rouen, (France) and is reported as a successful case. —See Good’s Study of Medicine, p 423” (This operation was performed many years before Dr. McDowell was born.) ‘In the London Medical Gazette for 1829, Dr. Hopfer, of Biberback, has re- ported three cases of extirpation of diseased ovaria, by Cazysman. The first was performed in 1819, and proved fatal in thirty-six hours after the opera- tion. The second in 1820: this case was success- ful, and the wornan has since borne children. The third case occurred in the same year, and the pa- tient never recovered from the shock of the opera- tion.” ‘* M. Lizars, in the Edinburgh Journal, for October, 1820, relates an attempt to extirpate an ovarian tumor, but, unfortunately, on cutting into the abdomen, he found no tumor to remove.” Besides these cases,by “‘the best talent in Europe,” Dr. Jeaffreson, of Ipswich, has performed the ope- ration once, which was success{ul—Dr. West, Ton- bridge, once—and Dr. Clay, of Manchester, twice, and all successful. Dr. Phillips, of Londen, once, which proved fatal.—See Braithwaite’s Retrospect, part 7th, pp. 99-100. ‘* Professor Smith, of Yale College, has given an interesting case of the suc- cessful removal of an ovarian dropsy, by an opera- tion.”—See Am. Med. Rev., 1822. Dr. D. L. Rogers, of this city, removed an ovarian tumor in 1829. The eperation wassuccessful. ‘ The tumor was composed of a large sac, which contained the fluid drawn off in different operations for tapping. One-third of the tumor was solid, containing a fibro-cartilaginous substance. it weighed three and a half pounds.” ‘ Dr. McDowell, of Ken- tucky, has reported three cases in which he ope- rated successfully for tumors in the abdomen, ova- rian and hydabid. A doubt exists in regard to these cases; and certainly the mode of describing them is calculated to confirm that doubt.”—See Med. Chir. Rey., vol. 5, page 216. Thus much for the operations in cases of ovarian tumors, and of the notice of the New York Journal of Medicine, and the collateral sciences, in the New York paper referred to, which it will now be seen was intended only for the “‘ green horns” in the community and of the profession. But “‘we no- tice also from the note book of that talented and able operator, Dr. John Watson, of this city, an in- teresting case of spina bifida, successfully operated upon by Dr. Stevens.” Bah! see Coopet’s Surgical Dictionary before quoted: article Spina Bifida, in which it will be seen Sir Astley Cooper fully suc- ceeded in one case in 1809 See also the New York Medical Repository for 1813, p. 28, where it will be seen that Dr. H. H. Sherwood, of this city, ore- rated with equal success in one case in 1811. Ono River.—At Wheeling, on Saturday, the river had seven feet water in the channel, and was falling. At Cincinnati, on Thursday, it wasin fine navigable condition above and below, for the largest boats fully laden. At Pittsburg, on Saturday last, there were four feet in the channel. Louis Puitirre Going To Encuanp.—We ob- serve, by our late London papers, that the King of the French had signified his intention to recipro- cate the friendly visit of Queen Victoria, by an ex- cursion to England in the course of the present autumn. 99- At Brighton, England, on the 29th July, the Right Hon. Lord Erskine, Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to the Court of Munich, in Bavaria, Germany, was married to Ann Bond, daughter of the late John Travis, Esq, of Phila- delphia. fj James Wallack is not well supported by the stock company at the National, Philadelphia. Navau.—The U.S. brig Bainbridge, Zachariah F. Johaston, Lt. Com., arrived here Sunday from Vera Cruz, 24 days, and anchored off the Naval Hospital. The following is a list of her officers :— Z.¥.

Hackett’s Mous. Mailet is an exquisite piece of acting, and it willdoubtless draw arourd him to- night many of his old admirers. The improvements, even to the most immaterial minut, im this esta- blishment, are etrongly marked. There is a care, and propriety, and perfectness, in the stage arranze- ments, which add much to the effectiveness of the performances, and now we can once again enjoy the best productions of Shakspere and other drama- tists with a pleasure which we have not had for some time. The Chatham is running the race of popularity in an unheard of manner. The new mi nager has infused a spirit here which has made his theatre one of the most popular resorts. Mr. Harry P. Grattan, the actor-dramatist, succeeds Mr. Hill as the prominent feature, and we understand will make his debut at this house in one of his own dramas. The drama of the ‘ Rebel Chief,” for that is its title, is founded on an occurrence which took place during the brief but bloody struggle for liberty in the year 1798. As is unusually the case in civil wars, where parties are brought snto actual opposition, the wrongs of the long suffering, whom tyranny urges to resistance, and the overbearing determination to support a long-endured authority, produced many scenes of bloodshed, retaliation and revenge, at thejrecollection of which the heart shudders ; but atthe same time many a deed of daring heroista and glorious self-devotion had their birth amid those scenes of strife and turmoil. It is upon one of these this drama is founded—an act which proved that even when urged by contendin, factions, opposed in political principles, haoelatenl and open foes, the generous impulses of gra- titude, honor and humanity, were still para- mount in the heart of many a misealled traitor.— The strength of the company will be brought out to give effet to this drama, and it promises a success- fulrun. There are other attractions which will not fail to sustain the popularity which this theatre has acquired. The Amphitheatre we found crowded last night as usual. The competition which now exists in our places of amusement, and the emula- tions which opposition occasions, createsa spirit of enterprise, and in none is it more visible than in the Amphitheatre, where it must be gratifying to the management to find it is appreciated and patronized by the public. Russell, who gives one of his ad- mirable concerts every mght this week, hada good attendance last night. We understand he intends to visit New Orleans during the ensuing winter for the first time, where, doubtless, he will meet a recep- tion that will be gratifying te him. Nrsvo’s.—The Italian company give the opera of Norma this evening for the benefit of Signora Cor- sini, on which occasion Signor Perozzi, about whom there has been such high expectations raised im the musical circles, will make his first appearance in New York. He is the principal male singer of the troupe, and is very highly spoken of in the Havana and New Orleans papers. The rival chanteuses, Signoras,Majocchi and Corsini, will again delight (we hope a crowded auditory,) by their exquisite airs and duos. This is the last night of the opera troupe, who certainly have created a most favor- able impression in the two operas they have pro- duced. The Ravels are busy rehearsing the Con- jurer’s Gift, or Megic Pills, which is to be revived with all its original splendor. City Intelligence, Lance Fine.—About nine o’clock lest night, a fire broke out in the machine shop of J. Robertson, on the correr of Rivington and Attorney streets, doing severe damage to the building, and causing a serious loss to the owner of the machinery; also, to J. Bonney, glass cutter, who inhabited a part of the establishment, and the sheds and tools in the marble yard of Mr. Daggett, on Attor ney street. The fire communicated to a row of wooden tenements occupied by several poor families, whose loss is severe. Poricea.—The gang of counterfeiters thet dwell in the vicinity of our city have made another demonstration of the efforts of their perverted genius, and therefore nu- merous counterfeit notes have been put in circulation du- ring the past several days. In addition to the several arrests previously made, another woman named Ally Thompson, was arrested yesterday for passing a $3 coun- terfeit note of the Vernon Bank of this State,letter A, No. 96. The woman denies the charge, and states that the = ‘was passed by an associate who was with her at the ime. : Kttep—A man named William Thompson Britton was kilied yesterday by falling from the ship United States, at the foot of Maiden lane.

(G-PIANO FORTES AND MUSIC.—The splendid Piauo Fortes now advertised by Atwill, specimens of which inay be scen at his Saloon, at 21 Brosdway, have excited no little attention during the past week or two.— Some very striking improvements have been introduced in the recently Boston made instruments, while they are rded at agreat reduction from former prices. Our mu. sical friends ut a distance are reminded that to procure either inst music they have but to send their orders, h, to Atwili,when they will be served os well os if here themselves, and very probably better. We had the pleasure of seeing the proofs of several new ro of music, which willbe Lene yg in a few days, in addition to the songs already issued.

But we are mistaken, the “Tubcrose Shaving Cream” has been tried and tested, and pronounced upon by the pub- Jic as the best article for softening the beard yet invented. Indeed, we know not which most to admire, its fine emol lient qualities, imparting a smoothness to the skin, or its highly perfumed pleasing smell, done up in tasteftl jars, and sold for the low price of three shillings. Avaunt all ye soaps from Windser to Paris! Those who have used this Cream will not again bear the influ. ence of a smarting face, caused by the alkalia contained ia soaps.

W. 5. RICHARDSON, Agent. MONEY MARKET. Wednesday, Sept. 27—6 P. M, The Stock market was less active to-day, with the ex. ception of Illicois, of which near $200,000 was sold at both Boards aten advance of 1 percent. At auction, at the Merchants’ Exchange, $20,000 Illinois Canal 6’s were sold at 413, ond $27,000 at 417; these were by order of Chancery on account of the North American Trust and Banking Company. Indiana rose $; Canton ¢; Lorg {sland 4 ; Ohio 6’s fell}; Harlem } ; Ohio 6's continue to be the lowest dividend paying stocks. At the New Board the sales were large. The following table, compiled from the late circular of the State Treasuer, show the amount of interest to be lowed on Treasury Notes received for taxas in 1843 ~ragigs nes Fic pineal The movement of the Secretary of the Trea sury, in relation to the new issue of treasury notes, seems to be exceedingly popular. The movement ia very auspicious for the attempt, the success of which will involve a great and radical change in the monetary system of the country. When Mr. Wood- bury issued his treasury notes, with a nominal interest, the rate of money generally was too high to permit them to be used as an investment, and as they were not con: vertible into coin they could not be retained in circula. tion ; they fell to a discount, and were all returned with- in three months to the treasury. Notes with a high rate of interest, when money is as cheap as it now 18, will not remain a day in circulation. They are immediately with, drawn into the hands of banks and capitalists. The new notes cannot be at a discount, because they are here con- vertible intocoin,and will bear a premium as New York ‘unda all over the country. Hence, there will be no in. ducement to seek them as a means of discharging govern: ment dues, neither will they be withdrawn for invest. ment. They must, therefore, remain in the hands of the people and will constitute a loan to the government, no by banks, nor brokers, nor shavers, but directly by the people, who alone will derive the advantages as well as the disadvantages from the exigencies of the government. This is the true principle. If the government must bor row, to whom should it apply but to the people by whom it is constituted 7 ‘The Ist of October is at hand, when the great “ corner’ m Alabama money is to be attempted, by the Bank of Mobile. It is well known, in and about Mobile, that all the large consignees of cotton trom the interior of Ala bama, being in the secret, sold out thei cotton to their country friends a few days before the bank stopped checking. For instance, suppose A., a factor in Mobile, nad 1,000 bales on account of B, a planter, and the price vad fallen to 64 cents; being advised that the baok will ttop checking to-morrow, he closes the account for the planter and reports ssles at 6). The bank stops checking and the prias rises to 74. The factor then sells actually and divides the plunder with his paper friends. Thenew operation of paying specis and cornering the Alabama money, is equal to the great $100,000 New Orleans Lot- tery for honesty, but much superior in magnitude, Avoid the Mobile Bank and avoid its associotes! The present state of the money market is remarkab'e, and indicates the short sightedness of those who huve Srratest experience aod who have been accustomed to! @ looked up to as oracles of Znancial wisdom—Wwe allude tg bank officers. When trade in money is perfcetly free ang there are no reservoirs where great accumulations of money can take place, there can never be a scarcity nor astiperabundance of money. Because the employmeat of money, being directed by each individual capitalist, no great interests can be created dependant upon joans of money. Undersuch circumstmces money is cheaper, ia more widely disseminated, aad is more usefully and con: ‘tantly employed. When, however, large capitals are secumulated under corporate managements and concen: trated at particular points iv large cities, a elass of ber- rowers is created, whese wants increase in times of confi- dence faster than the supply of funds; the paper created by these transactions of the people is called legitimate Very soon trade runs into speculation,the capital becomes exhausted, the credits are pushed out extensively at high rates, and the institutions are very prosperous apparently. Soon their attenuated and overstrained credits burst, panic comes end the borrowers are ruined. For a long period money continues to flow slowly back into the banks, and to accumulate there in large masses. In the meantime, individual credit having received a rude shock, business revives on a cash basis. In all branches of trade, and in the interier, a searcity ef meney is experienced, while the banks are overburdened. A new classof borrowers must be created before the lend. ers, who are the banks, can gain employ their meney as before. This, being a matter of confidence and individual credit, is a matter of very slow growth. In the mean time, there is an imperious necessity for the banks to em- ploy their funds in some way, because the officers wish to retain their offices; and at elections, if they cannot re. port a dividend equal at least to their neighbors, aj] the argument and philosophy in creation will not convince the stockholders that a chenge of officers is not neces: ry. Thisis now precisely the point in.the cycle which the banks in this city have reached. Some investment must be had which will yield a divilend, and they are driven upon stocks, whereof the banks, trust and insur. ance companies, of this State, hold probably $20,000,000 Most of these stock investments have taken place since last January. Within the year, money has rapidly accu. mulated, and those who control the banks have been con- stantly locking forward to a speedy revival of trade, whereby increased employment will be given to their means. In February last, so sanguine.was this hope, that loans could not be procured upon stocks at all, even at six per cent. Loans can now, after a lopse of seven months only, be had, on the same stocks, at thirty per cent higher prices, at three to four per cent. Let us look at prices now, and on the Ist of ip ebenaey: last :— eb. 1. . Sept. 27. United States 6, 1862 1d alli3s New York 7, 1848 107108 bi 6, 1860 106 alo? ce 5, 1855-58 al00 Ohio, 6, 1880 anh ‘ Ts A106 Kentucky 6, 1870 alO0sg Mlinois A 1870 aa. jarlem 2 add This shows the general rise. The banks, in February, would not loan upon Ohio at all. They will now lend 90 per cent upon them at four per cent perannum, end other stocks thesame. All these stocks are pledged at call, with a margin depending upon the market. Now the banks would not lend upon them last winter, because they expected money would increase in value for busi- ness purposes. Their conduct now shows a complete re. volution in opinion, and the conviction that something near present rates will be sustained. That the demand far money will be of slow growth, allowing the stocks to be absorbed for private purposes gradually. This view would seem to be warranted by the progress of business, which, although it has been good for nearly sixty days, has not improved the value ef money. The fact is, however, that pusiness has not nearly been so large as usual, and so large a proportion of that which hasbeen done, having been for cash, it has increased the amount ofmoney here. The receipts of the customs at this port have been paraded as a proof of increased busi ness. The Collector, on a recent occasion, in the pre, sence of eminent gentlemen from London, as will as America, stated that the revenue here hed been $1,000,060 forthe first eleven days ot September—a sum greater than in a like period durmg his experience. He did not statejan important fact, however, viz: that this year, un- der the tariff, $1,000,000 of c: 8 represents but $3,000,- 000 of dutiable imports, or $5,000,000 of gross imports, Last year the same revenue represented $10,000,000 of imports, or a demand for foreign bills double that under the new tariff; consequently a Jarge revenue this year, as compared with former ones, does not indicate an in- creased demand for money. The probability is, that no increated employment, fora Jeng time, can take place making reduction in steck loans expedient, and far less so necessary as to involve a loss.
