MONEY MARKE r. Saturday, Dec. 21-6 P. M. Stocks were a little better to-day, and the transactions very limited. Ohio 6’s, Pennsylvania 5’, North ~Ameri- can Trust, Farmers’ Trust, and Erie Railroad closed firm at yesterday’s prices. Canton improved 1 per cent; Mor- ris Canal, 1; Long Island, 2; Reading Railroad, }; Nor- wich and Worcester declined 1. The market was much firmer to-day than we anticipated. It was supposed the tone of the President’s message in relation to Mexico, would have a very unfavorable effect on prices. The Bank of the State of North Carolina has declared a semi-annual dividend of three per cent, The,Merchants’ Bank of Newbern, N.C. has {declared semi-annual dividend of three and a half percent. The receipts of the Mohawk and Hudson Railroad for the week ending the Idth inst. show an increase of nearly one hundred per cent. Mowawe ano Huoson Raitroap. Passen; Freigi es. Dor through say.

Ia the week given above of the Mohawk, it will be seen that the through freight amounted to nearly one half the sum received for passengers. Freight on this road is not subject to the canal toll. ‘The Fairfield County (Ct) Bank has declared a divi- dend of three and one half per cent, for the last six months. ‘The Central Railroad, Michigan, increases in produc- tiveness slowly, from month te month.

[Correspondence of the Herald | Wasuinaton, Dec. 20, 1844. Gen. J, G. Bennerr :— The case of the Appeal to the Supreme Court upon a writ of error, for a writ of habeas corpus, for the benefit of Thomas Wilson Dorr, now in the Rhode Island State Prison, was argued by his counsel, F. R Treadwell, in the Court to-day. A voluminous mass of testimony in the judi- cial history of the case—embracing the record of the Supreme Court of Rhode Island—the report of the trial—the verdict aod imprisonment—and several affidavits of the counsellors of Dorr, re- lating to their efforts in procuring his signature to a bill of exceptions while in prison, and other testi- mony in the case. The exceptions to the action of the Supreme Court of Rhode Island, are founded— Ist. Upon the plea that the crime charged against Dorr is an of- fence inst jie United Statez, over which the State Courts have no constitutional jurisdiction. 2d. That Dorr acted but as the instrument of the ople of Rhede tsland, and that they acted in con- form rmity with the ‘constitution in their effort to re- model the State Government to a more Tepublican form 3d, That if Dorr levied war, it wasagains: the United States, and that he cannot, therefore, be held amenable to trial before a State Court. These were the exceptions as given in a petition fora writ of error to the Stafe authorities. The case lies over. From the testimony presented, it would seem that the “ law and order” party are determined to coerce Dorr into a petition to the State Legis- Jature for a reprieve ; gnd to this alternative he may at last be driven. then hurried through, judgi!

Daizy prayed for the people at large—the meson We ational ba gr President, Sc —and for the House in particular, which was well considered. THE LAND BILL—THE SUB-TREASURY. Mr. DromGoo.e moved to suspend the rules, for the purpose of accommodating such members as had given Bbtipe of resolutions, bills, &c., and others who bag) ‘Pe it che ba Tg ed their propo- sitions to the by tellers 68 to 53 — It igan interestin popectele this voting by tellers; in the crowding of members between the coun- ters of the vote—the hum of conversation, and laughter, it smacks of the joyous uproar of ter Phabe and me” at a country school house. Mr. D. next moved that the House resolve itself into committee of the whole on the State of the Union. Tellers! tellers! resounded through the Hall. Ordered, and taken, 77 to 32—no quorum. ‘The Srkaxen—The members will please to vote on one side or the other. The vote was then re- peated by pales, and a quorum drummed up, as follows: 83 to 35. The House accordingly resolved itself into com- mittee, and the venerable and dignified Cave John- son, of Tennessee, was called to the chair. The Speaker has a remarkable attachment, and has “ch pte who knows him and his position, po- Intically considered. Mr. Dromcoote next moved to take up bill No. 216, for the resuscitation ef the Sub or Indepen- dent Be et system. R. Satu entitled to the floor on the Land Bit did Not object to its temporary{postponem: with the reservation of his scivilege. Mr. A. V. Brown was opposed to the postpone- ment a the Land Bill at this juncture. ; Mr.;THomaseon, of Kentucky, protested against the supercedeas of ae Land Bill. Mr. WintHrop, of Mass., te understood) wish- ed the regular businesa to be first in order. A contusion of tongues fora moment prevailed. The question vas at length taken on the postpon ment of the Land Bill; and twice tested by tellers, and twice defeated tor want of a quorum, notwith- standing the presence of a quorum in the House, which leads to the inference that there was either a great degree et indifference on the subject, or considerable dodging. Cries of “Committee rise ;” “OQ, I move that the committee’ rise ;” no, No ; let’s conaider the Sub-Treasury ;” “ I'move, Mr. Chairman, that the committee rise ;” ** No,” ** No.” The ‘Crtma-called the committee to order. Pem! pem! pem! came down the ivory hammer upon the velvet cover of the desk. “The committee will please come to order—gentlemen will take their seats.” There was a partial subsidence of the swelling murmur, when, viva voce, the motion to rise fell to the floor. The question on the postponement of the Land bill was carried ; and by tellers, 89 to 36, the bill 216, tor the revival of the Sub-'Treasury syste, tor the safe-keeping, transfer and disbursement of the public moneys, Was taken up, when, on motion of Mr. Pettit, the first general reading of the bill was dispensed with, and the clerk proceeded to deal out the bill to the committee by sections. The reading tory without much interrup- tion to the 24th section, which provides, among other things, that the T teasurer of the Mint at Philadelphia shall receive, in addition to his preeent salary, $500 per annum for additional service as a keeper of the revenues. r. J. R. In@ersout moved to increase the sum to one thousund,and made a speech for Buncombe on inet mouon. CB spine da opposed the amendment, and it an los ‘The reading of the bill was finished, when Mr. ADAMS Was understood (for it was impossible to hear him) to move to strike out the first section. Mr. Deomaoe.e made this a point of order, that while a bill was betore a committee, the motion to strike out the first section being equivalent to a Motion to reject the bill; and it being the duty of the committee to repert the billto the House, a Motion equivalent to its rejection in committee could "not be entertained. Mr. J. R. Incrrsou. asked if it would not be in order to move that the committee rige and report the bill with a recommendation that it do not pase. r. DromGooue did not press his motion on the pein ‘ot order; 3 on the motion to strike out the firet section, and Mr. Apaws proceeded to state the constitutional objections to the first section of the bill, which, he said, placed the public monies under the exclusive control of the Treasurer of the United States; he also strongly objected upon constitutional ‘authority, and from the usagesof the past, connected with t! ottiean of the Department, to the constituting of the new Treasury Building and fire proof vaults, &c, therein, the exclusive Treasury of the Unite States. Mr. Dromaoo.e replied that the present lawless condition m the admiuistration of the Treasury De- partment, as established by the last Congress, re- quired some enactment by law for the safer keep- ig, transfer, and disbursement of the public monies. He had hoped that the opponents of this measure, baffled as they had been in the recent elections on the issue of a United States Bank, would have yield- ed to the decision of the nation in the measure now proposed. Mr. D. construed the constitution as authorising the measure. Mr. Barnarp remonstrated against the light and trifling manner which Mr. Dromgoole had discussed the constiutionality of this grave question, and sustained the views of Mr Adams. He denied that the Sub-Treasury had been made an iesue be- fore the people in the late Presidential canvass. It had not been where he resided, and he doubted not the experience of other gentlemen accorded with his. No, sir, they dared not make this an issue before the people. They would have been beaten toj death, if Lo had.” If U mabe ges had made this an issue at the late session of Congress whey might now wage this appeal with a show of argu- ment. But they had evaded it, &c. Mr. C. J. Incersoun asked if the gentleman from Massachusetts had moved to strike out the first section. Mr. Avams was understood to say that he had; and the chair was further un jepstoed to say that he had decided the motion out of order. Mr. C. J. Inaersouu requested the decision of the chair on the question of the sentiments of the opie. Mr. I. said that he was satisfied Lye) the indications ot the public mind; | betore and di othe oy and since the late elections, that the custod; the Me money should be entrusted to safer cus- tody than an individual or individuals, or compe. nies or banking corporations.
