It is true, they do not adjourn till Monday, but ail the business that is to be trans- acted during the present session must be terminated this day or this night, and probably they may en- croach upon the Sabbath day very considerably. We do notexpect, at this late stage of the session, that aoy of the measures of utility which have beea before this legi-lative body, will be setiled or determined in any rational way. A more thought- less, useless session, we do not recoliect ever to have seen, Their whole time has been wasted on the merest trifl-s, varied only by a vulgar row or quarrel amongst themselves, One of the inost important measures before them was the tariff, and which, at one period of the session, promised to occupy a great deal of atten- tion, But it has received the ‘‘go-by,” and, ac- Aouimstearion or Justice.--During the last, Dagaprur Suictps at THE AMERICAN few days several eminent specimens of the manner in which justice is administered in this city, have been presented, und which deserve to be put parti- ewlarly on record for the benefit of all rogues, sivall and great. It will be recollected what an ourery was raised on the explosion of the Commer- cial Bank, and particularly at the conduct of Red- field, the cashier. We recollect with what haste he was arrested, indicted, and al! preparations made to visit on him the full measure of the pun- ishment due to his crimes while intrusted with the property of that institution, Well, a few days ago it appeared that this individual, of whom all sup- posed justice had got such a secure grasp, had van- ished, forfeiting his bail, of $10,000, and all that now remains to satisfy the ends of justice, is the solvency and worth of that bail, whatever that may be, and one-fifth of whatever may be recovered to the State. But where Recfield is—what has be- come of him—er whether he has not gone either to Coney {sland or to Texas, to be Secretary of the Treasury, or to occupy some other distinguished place, no one can tell. This is a sample of the administration ot jastice—the fashionuble system which the remarkably acute vision of Mr. Wills has failed to notice. But it is not the only speci- men. During the week, the trial of Schermerhorn, the Secretary of the Ocean Insurance Co., forabstract- ing about $140,000 of the tunds of that concern, also took place. The evidence was remarkable cording to the returns of the Treasury Department and the Custom Houses, we are presented with the extraordinary spectacle of a revenue of ten or hfteen millions per annum not required by the wants of the government! What—any one will ask—what is the use of taxing the great body of the people beyond the necessities of the govern- meat? Will the political economists in both par- ties answer satisfactorily before they go iato the next election ? Another measure of important reform, which was called for by ali parts of the country, was the reduction of the post office rates. In opposition to this most beneficial project we have had the Post Office Department, with all its subordinates, array- ed in fiercest hostility. The whole power and in- fluence ofthat Department have been wielded for the purpose of preventing this great popular mea- sure from being carried into effect. And Congress did not move a pegin the business, whilst at the sane time, ten or fifteen millions of taxes, not re- quired by the exigencies of the government, were poured into the treasury. A more thriftless— unwise—opp-essive course of legislation thaa this, never before disgraced any nation. On the one hand we see milions of taxes taken from the pock- ets of the people, not required for the purposes of government; and on the other a plump refusal to diminish the oppressive rates of postage, which weigh so heavily ‘on the great mass of the people, and interfere so materially with all business opera” tions This is a case of folly and oppression which ought not to be forgotten atthe polls. Tar Magyetic Te.raaarn.—The successful es- tablishment ot the magnetic telegraph between Washington and Baltimore, by Professor Morse, and the wonderful working of that scientific in- vention, will probably induce the government to extend its benefits to New York, including all the intermediate points on the way. It seems that the line extending from Washington to Baltimore, was constructed, ior less than $30,000, and Professor Morse offers to the government to erect a similar line to New York for about $100,000, the annual expense not exceeding $3,000, to keep it in con- Btant Operation. Even amidst the effect of the negligence, bad passions, and folly of both ifoases of Congress, we are after all not without some hopes, that such an important project asthis will receive some attention. Amore important means of communication be- tween distant points than this, has never before been presented to the world. Only think of the re- sults that would atance fallaw the establishment ofa means of communic ting between New York and Washington in a second of time! The erection of a line of such telegraphs frem New York to Wash- ington, theuce to Boston, and thence to New Or- he intermediate poinis, would at leans, with al once connect the whole of the chief cities of the Union in one magnetic embrace—make them ove Vast motropolis as it were, producing incalculable bevefits in business, government movemeats, and poplar results, and forming a bond of union whic: nothing could dissever. We do trust that Congress will pass on this subject without any delay. from its showing that a personage supposed to be the devil in the shape of a man, was the being who instigated poor Schermerhorn to commit such a depredation on the funds of the widows and or- phans; and this appearing so distinctly to the jury, they came to the wise resolution that Schermer horn was perfectly innocent, and at last they could not agree, and had to separate, reserving the full benefit of 2 united verdict for the devilin the shape of a man when he is caught and put on trial before them ; but itis more probable that the devil will catch and sit on the jury, before the jury catch and sit on the devil. ‘These are two of the freshest examples of the administration of justice in the case of fiaancial detaulters—rogues of a high degree. But much about the same time that all this was going on, we saw with what sternness—with what vindictive majesty, we might say—with what even handed- ness thisjustice was meted out to the poor wretch who stole a pair of breeches ora bit of ham, or the mis-rable outcast who picked up a piece of cordage and sold it for six pence wherewith to pur- chase a crust of bread. Week after week and month after month, the cells of the Penitentiary are crammed with the naked, shiveriog, famishing wretches whose hunger and nakedness have made them thieves, whilst the bloated, pampered, Wall street thieves, who are clothed in purple and fare sumptuously every day, escape courts, judges, ju- ries, every thing, and are permitted to roam the world at large, and in some other quarter plunder other banks and swindle other institutions, And this is called justice! Oh! what a profanation of that sacred name ! Judging from these “signs of the times,” we com? to the conclusion without the trouble of an astronomical observation, that we cannot be far from the end—that the millennium or some great change is about to take place. What itis to be we can’t tell. But we certainly are near some great crisis. Lecrtmmate Drama on its Last Leas.—The Park Theatre was shut up last night. in themorn- ing 1t was announced that Booth was to have a be- nefit—but there,was no play at'the Park—no bene- fitthere. Yet itis probable he did take a benefit somewhere else—and that, like many benefis of tate, it may leave him with a headache this morn- iog He ia announced to play at the Walnut street theatre to-nighi—probably another benefit. Whe- ther that also will be shut up,we will know to-day. The legitimate drama is surely staggering on its dau lact lama in thace From Port Repuntican.—By the Gen. Marion, arrived last eveni:g from Port Republican, whence she sailed on the 3d of June, we seceived the tullowiag items of news:—Geueral Herard, the ex- President, was banished by proclamation, together with his cousin, late secretary, Herard Dumesle, aad had satled for Jamaica in HB. M. corvette Spartan, Capt. Elliott. Quiet has been restored tareughour the island, and it is taought the present erament will be able to keep their position. Lhe decree of banishment, issued against political Wart. Srreer—The distinguished individual from the world of fire below, who advised poor Schermerhora to speculate in stocks, must have taken a walk through Wall street of late. The speculations, fluctuations and operations in stocks during the last six weeks have made a host of lame ducks; at least half the young brood o1 brokers have broke their pinions, and six or eight of the old brood. The banks have out oa loan $51, 000,000—being $14,000,000 increase since Feb-uary last, principally on stocks. Terrible work in Wall street is expected during the next six weeks—and if the banks dont get shaved to the extent of sev- eral millions, it will not be the fault of the poor ignorant financiers who manage them. Wall street at this moment carries on a greater business in gambling—absolute gambling—than all the faro banks and roulette tables round about the Park, or up and down Broadway. But Wallstreet wears 2 clean shirt and goes to church on Sunday with bible in hand, and gettles all the devil's differ- ences at the close of each week—the Broadway and Park gamblers are al «ays in sin and soot. Crvinization our West.—We published yester- day a communication from a correspondent at Vicksburg, giving a very melancholy description of the state of society in that refined city of the south- west, which it seems more resembles a condition of semi-barbarism than Christian civilization. We publish to-day a le ter describing the state of society at Dayton, Ohio, a city only afew hundred miles from Vicksburg, which presents a most remarkable contrast. In Diyton, all seems to be harmony, order, elegance, civilization, literature, refiaement and poetry. In Vicksburg all is violence, hatred, murder, assassination and evil passions of all kinds. What can produce such a difference in two cities comparatively adjoining one another, and peopled by the same stock ? Can any one solve this pro- blem? “T Won’r ne a Non ohn Jones insists upon it, that Captain Tyler will most assuredly run for the next Pressdency, Polk or no Polk. That's right—stick to it.

Chevalier Wikotf advanced the balance Serine Estanrisuments—Horses.—Now is the season for those who want a handsome “ turn-out” to supply themselves with the material. On the avenues we have seen some fine horses, but few in comparison to former days.

There was very little produce in Port Re- publican at the time the Gen. Marion sailed. Stream Sure Atapama.—In yesterday’s paper it was stated that the steam ship Alabama, Capt. Win- die, in her late voyage from New Orleans had laid to 20 hours. This isa mistake. In the time stated she made 120 miles against a heavy gale and head sea, in which she proved herself a first rate sea boat in every respect. The Alabama is one of the steam packets from New Orleans to Havana, and has come North for the purpose of procuring new boilers and beingnew coppered. She will return early in the autumn and will be a pleasant opportunity for travellers who wish to return South. The Captain and officers are too well known to the travelling community to require any compliments from any one. Broapway aT Nicut —The great thoroughfare ofthis city, Broadway, is at night probably the most disorderly street in the world. The crowds of lewd women of allcolors and degrees of degradation, and of vagabonds and rowdies ef all descriptions, with which it is thronged from Fulton street to Canal street, give it the appearance of some of the vilest purlieus of Paris or London. It certainly re- fects the greatest disgrace on a christian repuvlican city when such a state of things is permitted to con- tinue. Ifthe indecencies—the gross indecencies, too shocking to be described, nightly perpetrated in this, the chief street of our city, du rot at once at- tract the attention of the new Corporation, they may depend upon it that the popular indignation will soon exhibit itself. We call on the city au- thorities to redeem their pledges to their fellow citizens. (j- Pmapecruta is still very unsettled.

About two hours previously he was seen to enter the room, aud shortly after a slight noise was heard by aperson in the adjoining room, as if of the break- ing of a stick, but was not heeded. One of the ser- vauts, upon endeavoring to enter the room, founu it fast —upon looking through the key hole, she ob- served that a man was lying on the floor whom she thought was intoxicated, and informed the proprietors, who forced an entrance into the room and fouad the unfortunate man quite dead. On each side of him lay a pistol, and a merk of a bul- let over the left temple, and also a mark or bruise on the back of the head; whether made by the exit of the ball or by the fall after the fatal shot, is not yet known. The deceased is about 30 years of age,*and was formerly in the weightsand measures department at Washiugton, but resigned about two months since. He is the son of the late Col. E. Hassler, formerly Coast Surveyer at Washington. The above appeared in our Evening Edition yes- terday. The following are the further particulars obtained since :— Shortly after the event, his brother arrived, and was much agitated at the occurrence, 80 much 80 as to be scarcely able to give his evidence. A high- ly respectable jury having been assenbled, Mr. G. W. Dixon foreman, having been sworn, proceeded to examine the body. ‘They found it in room No. 23, lying on its back, with a wound over the right temple, from which the brain protruded, and the head was surrounded with a pool of blood, on each ride of hima pistol, the one on his right discharged. lle appeared to bea fine young man of the age mentioned above ; 5feet 10 incheshigh. The fol- lowing evidence waa then adduced : De. A.G@. Gorpsmitn, of Park Place, was called in to see the deceased about quarter past 11, and found him as above described. Upon examining the body over the right frontal bone, found a lacerated wound in the scalp, which showed that the pisto! must have been placed close to hishead, and the bone perforated so as to admit the finger, which was no doubt mude with a pistol ball fired from a weapon held in the deceased’s hand ; the wound was in such direction a8 could not have been done by any other person readily. The direction of the bal! was down ward and backwards, and no doubt the cause of death. Eunen Dacxats, chambermaid of the establishment, went to the room No. 23 between 10 and 11 o'clock, und put in the key to open the aoor, but found there was one on the other side, which prevented it; then looked through the keyhole and saw ainan lying on bis back on the floor; did not know who it was; went immediately and informed another person of it; don’t know whether the gentleman slept in the house the previous night; but had not wade the bed since the previous mourning. [The bed did not appear to have been lain upon the previous night.) Cuan.es Scuuman, servant in the establishment, was informed by the previous witness that a man was lying on the floor of room No. 23; went there about 11 o,clock, and found the deceased lying on his back dead ; the door was not locked, but only closed ; saw blood ubout his forehead ; didnot particularly observe anything further, beyond two pistols lying on eech side of him ; informed Mr. John Cozzens of what he had seen. Epwanp M’C ane, hall porter of the establishment, saw the deceased come into the house about half past eight o’clock this morning ; believe he had been staying about two days at the house, during which time ' ad frequently seen him, but observed nothing particular in his conduct ; directed him to and saw him enter his bed room alone.— About two hours after heard what had occurred, and found him as described hy previous witness. Mr. F. E. Haseurr, brother of the deceased, deposed that the deceased callvd on him at the United States Hotel, where he remained, and that he slept in an adjoining room to him. The deceased arrived here from Philadelphia on Wednesday evening. On the previous evening they had some conversation together relative to the administration to the effects of their father. Saw him again about 6) that morning, and he said he was going te the American to breakfast. Called at the American about 12} o’clock when he was summoned on a jury about then to be held, and found that it was to Le on his brother.

With such attractions and the moderate, we may sately anticipate a crowd- Meeting of the Friends of Association. Thie meeting was held in Croton Hall yesterday evening, but not very numerously attended. Mr. J.C. Smita took thé chair, and said that the meeting had been called for the purpose’ of testing the feeling of the city in faver of associa- ton. Mr. H. Greeney was the next speaker. He | wate that their cause Was not the most likely one to take hold of the minds and imaginations of the people. “If it promised to make them rich—if it could raise the fupds—if it was an appeal to the senses, at any time a church full could be assem- bled friendly to it: What it promised did not seem at first sight a palpable benefit, nor was it very briiliant; but on the contrary, like every great reform, it had to be accomplished by some trial and suffering. But virtue would hardly be virtue if its profession brought imme- diate and palpab!e happiness; and so their course was no royal road to it, but a plan by which the depraved, the oppressed, the degraded, should be roused by the application of new principles to men in their .elation to each other, to a higher and purer condition. That course must triumph ulti- imately, although not instantaneously; for it was hat the present generation might be in the grave before it was accomplished, and in that view its present friends would have rather to look inte their breasts for their reward. In great cities, like those where selfishness and fodividual aggrandizement actuate men, where to get rich was the universal aspiration, the calls which appoal to. higher aud nobler sentiments would not be popug lar, ‘The present meeting, however, was held to elicit some information, as it was many’ months since the last; perheps, too, a few might be induced, from hear. ing ‘the object of their effurts,to urge it forward. He to state what its objects were hardly felt it necessar ‘They proposed to entablish harmony and union instead of discord ; confidence and trust instead of disunion and distrust among men ; to construct a society whose members would labor for their own advantage, but in union with each other. It did not purpose agrarianism, as was thought by many wise men—but a communion of property ; to atownship where, instead of 300 iso- luted dwellings, there should. be one beautiful hubstation for the community—where, instead of hordes of mer- chants selling goods for profit, there should be one to sup- ply @ sufficiency at cost price—where they should dis- pense with the services of lawyers—where preductive industry would be the great ersential, and where they should ‘get rid of the non-productive classes, ‘The plan guaranteed to every individual. enough to do, aud a felt roward for lahor, thus rendering it attractive. It would then be done through love and affection, instead of as a protection feom want, degradation and starvation. Such was a brief outline of the lofty aims of association. Many thought them visionary and utepian, but they were not the less true because of prejudice against them ; for the same was said of the printing press and the steam engine. Happily, it did not require the co-operation of vast bodies, but simply that of a few, to work out great moral pro- blems. ‘The work goes ‘un, untired of the infidelity of some, and the mistaken hatred of others, and the faults and errors (If such there be) of its friends. The tidings from Europe showed that the great truths of association began to produce effects on some of the first minds, and lent a coloring to the debates in Parliament, as well the Belgium Legislature and the French Chamber of De- puties. Mr, G. concluded by enforcing the necessity of perseverence, and taking a review of the present condi- tion and fature prospects of the several associations that had been established, which, upon the whole, he said, were flattering notwithstanding the obstacles and heavy discouragements they had to encounter. Mr. Cuannixo followed—He could not but admire the patience with which Mr, Greeley stated the subject, and the coolness with which the President alluded tathe work ciation a retrograding ; for iu reality there never was a tit advanced to triumph, al- though the political storm was darkening the atmosphere, and for the present diverted the public eye from thelr pro- gress. The trutha stated by ite friends, had sunk deepin to men’s hearts; it appealea to their practical good sense; it showed to those in the common walks of life thetrue way to seek not only their own happiness, but that of their fami- lies and friends Association was an attempt to fulfil on earth the infinite law of love, which came from the father of all; und its origin, its object, its purport involved sacred du- ties which no man could shun, and remain inexcusable before the world, their race, or God. He:would ask wheth. er this nation, called into a mature existence, born ina fresh and virgin soil, did not bear evident marke of having allotted to it ia the order of God's providence a high and responsible destination ?. And if any person called their objects too high, and, therefore, visionary —if they shrank {rom identifying the exalted career of the country with those high projects,they did not deserve the name of Ame- ricans (Applause) ‘There was great principles of social vitality in this country under the christian religion and the loveof freedom. ‘They lived in the hearts of their an- cestors,and were handed down from sire to son; although it was not in the features of society, in the church, or public throng ows were discernible. “Men were not now living the lives of love and liberty. ‘Chere was nota single man or a woman who was not a #lave to custom—whose servi tude prevented them from fuifilling the law of christivn love. Every one was skeptical about a man’a being able to seenre hig own interest and that of his brother. Sel- fishness wos the yoke that bound men to the earth—that struck out God and supplied the demon ; nevertheless, it was possible, practicable and consistent with commov sense to realize an independence and fulfil the law of Jove, and live superior to a servitude to qur selfish appe- tites.

The affairs of the Bank of the United States are in such ite that very little hope can be entertained of its being born again, but the assignees of the Girard Bank have very great confidence in the ultimate re-establishment of that institution, anda re-commencement of banking business. The late sales of stocks belonging to this institution have realized good prices, comparatively, in many instances.while in others, the bids not coming up to the views of the assignees, the stock offered has been withdrawn. ‘The late tremendous decline in the stock market can be traced to the recent movements on the part of the banks in this city. The limited demand from the regular channels of trade for bank favors compels the banks to seek some other employment for their means, to permit the declara- tion of a dividend semi-annually. This is the cause that induces them to go into stock operations, They are still further compelled to extend their loans immensely, to make even the smallest dividend, in consequence of the reduced value of money. Capital has all along been very abundant at from 4to 5 per cent, the effect of which is, that larger loans must be made to net a profit anything like that produced on seven, eight and ten per cent loans. These two causes produce all the speculations going on instocka. Ihe banks are forced into the operations, and when once in, are forced to go very deep, The Jate decline in the stock market has been caused by a liscovery made in relation to the great extent to which the banks have Involved themselves in stock opers- tions, and @ sudden change in their movements, The quarterly returns made by the banks of this city and State lo the Comptroller, convey but @ very vague idea of the movements of these institutions, The Joans and discounts of the banks in this city, according to the This table exhibits a very great regularity compared with their actnal condition between the days fixed for heir returns. In six months they acknowledge in their reports an increase of about six millions, but could their position be defined, without giving them @n opportunity for preparation, we should find immense expansions within the quarter, From reliable authority, founded on informal returns, we) learn that the loans and discounts of the to | banks of this city, et this moment,amount to thetsnormous sum of $41,000,000—fifty-one million of dollars—being an increase of more than nine millions since May—in a little over sixweeks; being equal to about 20 per cent on the total loans at that time. We have centered in this simple fact ‘the whole cause of the very great rise in stocks within the Past sixmonths, This enormous expansion was discover- ed very accidentally, and the result haa surprised even the bank directors themselves. The rapid rise in stocks for sometime pest, instigated inquiry among the banks as to the extent of each cthers loans, from rough estimates, and the result of these inquiries show an enormous infla- tion within a very hort period. The banks having no concert of action, each extends ite movements accordiag to the state of the market, thoroughly ignorant of what is going on inthe same line amongst their nughbors. The information obtained from the inquiries instituted im this menner, led to an immediate suspension of loans and en issue of notices calling in outstanding loans toa lerge amount. This sudden movement on the part of the banks ‘was hke a thunderbolt falling in the midst of the Boards of Brokers, A panic seized upon the bulls in the street ; ‘and half a dozen members of the old beard end full half of the new board of brokers, broke down on the immense differences between the operations of the day previous. Se- veral have since been puttied up, and still retain their seats but the pntty cannot stick long under the courte since adopted by the banks, which is a gradual but steady con traction. The contest will now be between the banks andthe outdoor capitalists of the street. It will be for the interest of the bonks to draw in their loans very gra. dually, to prevent any very great decline in stocks; and if another party steps in and sustains prices, the baake may get out of the difficulties they have brought upon them- selves without loss. The difficulty the banks here fora long time lebored under, in not being able to employ their immense resources in legitimate business transactions, has left them no alternative but to devote them to stock opera- tions. The samo difficulties will undoubtedly be again experienced, so long as the banks keep up the amount of their peper issues, and sustain the great expansions they have so long been under. The accumulation of deposites in several of our city banka, both on individual and govern. ment account, in a great measure led to the expansions that have been the cause of so much speculation. The govern- ment pet banks of this city had $2,239,083 on deposit to the credit of the Treasurer of the United States on the let of May. Since that time the duties paid at this port amount to about $2,500,000, most of which, for a time, remains on deposite, giving the banks holding this large amount increased facilities,which they make as profitable as possible, to go towards swelling their divi- dends, Thus we see that government fands, drawn from legitimate business transactions; moneyextracted from the mercantile classes—is used to promote stock speculations. ‘The surplus revenue created by the high average duty of the present tariff is allowed to lay in the hands of a few individuals at the head of pet banka, who use the power given by this act to inflate fancy stocks and create every species of speculation. A recent report frem the Treasury department estimates the receipts from customs, from Jan- uary to July, at fifteen millions of dollars, and for the calendar year at thirty millions. The latter estimate is probably too high--but the former io not much ont vf the way. The receipts at this port and Boston from January 1 to June 1, only five months, reach $10,645,024, and at the same rate the receipts at these two ports alone will not fall far short of $15,000,000 up to the 1st of July. It is also est'mated that government can be properly and even liberally adminis, tered at anannual expense of nineteen millions of dol- lars. The ordinary expemses of 1343 were $24,062,447, and the estimated expenses of 1844, $21,612,773, which, if not exceeded, will leave a surplus, according to the es- timates, from the revenue from customs alone, of sbout eight and a half millions to be applied to the redemption of treasury notes and the liquidation of the public debt. This is independent of the revenue from the sales of pub- lic Janda, and miscellaneous sources, which is estimated to be fall $3,000,000. ‘This large surplus would not be very inconvenient or troublesome until the public debt was paid; the outstanding treasury notes redeemed, and all other claims against the government liquidated. Then asurplus revenue would create a great deal of mischicf, ‘We should have the same battles fought over again that created so much slaughter in 1834 and 1836. An accumu- lation of money in the hands of the government, would create a great hankermg for the epoils, and the same contest for possession would ogain be experienced. The times of 1836 and 33 were produced by the great surplus revenue of the government. The State banks sought the destruction of the United States Bank for the purpose of getting hold of the immense power the control of the government deposites gave. The possession of these deposites induced expansions and speculations in ail branches of trade, precisely as the deposites on individuel and government account do at the present day. As yet the government is in debt, and consequently there is no actual surplus revenue, but the spirit of speculation is co general that even temporary deposits are used to extend it as fur as possible. Any expansions of the currency increases the amount of imports, which, under the exi-t. ing high rate of duty, would rapidly swell the revenue, and increase the evil ina very great degree. The present tariff laws are consequently dangerous} undcr a very flated state of the currency. Theregulation of the whole system of trade lays in the movement of the banks an} the valne of the circulating medium. The first moment any movement is made advancing prices in this country, that moment importation increases, no matter what the rate of duty is. The only possible way to improve prices is by increasing the volume of paper issues, and extending large credits. Keep these two important things reduced, place the most rigorous restrictions upon the banks, and there need be no fear of speoulations, over importations, ora surplus of government revenue. We annex a table showing the bank movement and imports at several places through the years of speculation. Bank Movement anv Imports 1x tax Unity States.

The currency is, in fact, better regulated by the amount of paper money ofloat than by the extent of credits. From 1830 up to 1836, the imports were gradually increasing, notwithstanding the veryhigh average duty corresponding with the gradual in- flations going on in the currency. From 1836 to 1840, the importations very rapidly declined, notwithstanding the sliding scale of the compromise had greatly reduced the average rate of duty corresponding with the very rapid contraction of the currency. We can thus trace the sym pathy between the twe movements It is plainly to be seen, and it is impossible to change the laws combining the two. We have only to put the screws on tothe banks and we regulate everything else connected with trade and commerce, Old Stock Exchange. roece O 100 20°0 Bk of N York 118g Jo00 1g “20 Me cunts’ Bk 106 woo Kentucky 6's 4 50 NA Trost sl0 146 160 ¢o 101 ib} Ime 50 do 101% 100 Farmers’ Loan 160 43 ws 75 do 4t 1000 “o 100 do 8000 Tiin. is Spel 30 any do son % 150 do sao do 30 50% 100 Reading RR 5000 Indi-na 5's 45% 150 do 200 Venn'a ds 7 do 209 Nor & Wor 540 250 do bi 150 do 15, do 5644 50 Stonington % do 46% 50 do 100 do tT 3000 do. att 8 fe, do 75 US bk 0 0 5 do 9% 5 ErieRR Uy) Patersoa 8° 10 do 50 Cautoa 49 325 Harlem do Loo tix 50 do 59 io oO 5 0 100 do 43 100 L Island 199 do 12% 100 do 6 Utica & Sche 12634 825 do 42 Audura& Roch 108. 50d Second Board. 59 Canton Co 46-200 Nor & Wor 598g so do. a7 Ww do Paste 40 do 48 15 do 60 15 do as} Reading RR 997 Famers’ af d fab hs ba 43, 50 Stonington 7 ae 4 43% 25 US Dank 93 NAT rust 1 100 balem RR baw 77: New Stock Exchange. 1.0% 50 Farmers’ Lowa 41% bs 46s , ag 4636 0 Nor & Wor ey 1% 25 do z esh 46 100 do 1000 do saw 46 2) Canton Co 40 Vieksburz 835% 5) do 50 U 8 Bank 9° 50 Lorg Island do ‘3 2 do 40 Farmers’ Loan = bs 42, 50 do 3 a 4g 0 % = do aw 42g State of Trade.
