Tho banks are doing nothing in the way of making loans, and out door capitalists require too high @ rate of interest to enable speculators to meke any ex- tensive operations. It is barely possible soon after the banks have made out their returns for February, they may extend their operations and afford some relief to the money markets. Judging from the receipts from Customs t this port, tince the commencement of this year, we should think the expenditures of the government for some months. weuld reach so far beyond the receipts for the same period, that the deposites ia our banks would be required to meet the current expenses of the govern- ment. This must keep up a steady draft on these banks. Receirts rnom Cusroms—Porr or New Yorx. 1848 844 1846 to Jan. 15. January. . ,$548,056 1,876,616 671,138 For the month of January this year the receipts will probably exceed one million of dollars, being about eight hundred thousand less than the corresponding month in 1844. The banks of this city will find a vast difference Detween receiving deposits amounting to nearly two mil- lions per month, and paying out nearly the same amount. This will have an effect in the money market,and prevent the extensive speculations in stocks, so prevalent sll through last year. The surplus revenue will gradually disappear under limited importations. The large amount of gold—$500,000—exported in the Yorkebire, to Liverpool, has created quite an excitement | ° in the ney market, which must tend towards creating a farther depression in stocke.

About one quarter of the toval circulation of all the banks in 1844, wasthe issues of the banks of the five principal cities, and about one-third of the foans and discounts was from the banks of these citier. In all expansions, either in discounts or in circulation, the movement generally originates with the banks of the city, and the country banks invariably carry ont the arrangement. Whatever cause may arise requiring any inflation in the circulation, or an exten- sion of discounts, the first demand is supplied by the banks of the large cities, as they are the centre of all spe- culations or expansion in commercial offairs. ‘Theloans end circulation of the hanks of the United States, in 1844, according to the returns made out tothe closeo! the year, were less than fot any previous year, since 1830, and in these departments the movement is only about half what it wes in 1837 and 1838, Wihinthe past year or two the benks throughoul the country have s iomeat riba eal so great that we shall soon be out. ‘be number for to-day bas fe uumbers have been reprinted Iegant translation, far supesior to ANcE, for December, 1844, 18 now been very gradually expanding, but the movement has been so imperceptible that it has not yet deranged the laws of trade, or induced much ‘speculation. This ex- pansion, no matter how gradual, must, in time, if not checked, produce an inflation in the operations of the banks that must affect trade, and create commercial em- barrassment. An expansion in any particular section of the country, would, of itself, be of little consequence, but when it becomes general, it rapidly reachesmn®xtent endangering the safety of business matters.

GAIT k j FRED SPARKES El —— es BY THE SOUTHERN MAIL. Washington, [Correspondence of the Herald.) Wasuineton, D. C , Thursday—midnight. The rumored defalcation of the Clerk of the Howse of Representatives—Its entire falsity— The Duel in the House—Oregon—Nominations—Col. Polk for Naples and John Tyler for England—Atwood, Suydam and Shaler—The Texas Debate and the new christening of anti-Texas democratic mem- bers. James G. Bennett, Esq :— There is no doubt that the public press, especial- ly that portion that have no regard for truth, or have no enterprising spirit to ascertain facts, will coatain a variety of false statements in regard to the alleged defalcation of Col. C. J. McNulty, the clerk of the House of Representatives. The law of Congress, making the clerk of the House the disbursing agent of the contingent fund, compels him to enter security in the eum of $20,000 for the faithful performance of these duties. On being elected to the station of clerk, Col. McNuity gave the requisite security by entering in bond with four sureties, either one of whom are fully responsible for the whole amount. These sureties are membcrs of Congress, and are fully capable “f meeting the payment of tem times the amount for which they are held liable. The Pa- triotic Bank of this city has been the usuat place of deposit of the contingent funds of the House, under the discretion of the Clerk, although there is no law of Congress compelling such deposit, as the Clerk and his sureties are alone responsible forthe tund. During the past summer, Colonel MeNulty drew the sum of 30,000 dollars from this bank, and deposited it in other hands, and received the most undoubted security for its safe return at any time that it was pans f This he hed a perfect right to do, legally and morally; and it is because he made this tranfer, that he has been pursued with that revenge so pe- culiar to corporate institutions, whose selfishness prompts destruction to all who follow not their nod and bidding. The call upon the contingent fand tor the payment of recent printing ordered by the House, compelled Colonel McNulty to draw for the sum deposited, and Mr. Kershaw, one of his assistant clerks, was deputed to go to Ohio for that purpose, and also, at the same time te enter notice of the intention ef the Col. to’contest the regult of the late Congressional election in his district, in order to claim a seat as a member of Congress, which had been given to his opponent by a few ma- jority, votes which are alleged to have been illegal. The absence of Mr. Kershaw tended toinduce one or two of the members of the Committee on Ac- counts, who knew the money had been removed from the Patriotic Bank, to excite suspicion that it had been wrongfully appropriated, and this sus- picion was immediately followed by an out-door rumor that a defalcatiou had taken place. In the meantime some private business kept Col. McNul- tv from his seat as the Clerk of the House, and this temporary absence was tortured into an additional evidence of guilty conduct. Rumor, with her wholesale tongue, was instantly rife with every imaginary supposition, and the amount of money, alleged to have been appropriatad by the Colonel, was extended to almost any sum, and the manner of the appropriation attributed to every improper influence. Mr. Kershaw arrived here this evening from New York, having returned from Ohio, and having also eflected a change of deposit of the $30,000 into hands more agreeable to the instigators of this rumored defalcation. The Committee of Accounts will be notified of this fact to-morrow morning, and algo of the legal right ot the clerk to deposite the whole of the contingent fund when and where he pleases, as himself and his securities are alone responsible for its safety. My knowledge on this subject is fuunded on fact; not rumor, and I can also add, that not one dollar of the public money has ever been used or applied by Col. McNulty for his individual benefit, and that this amount of $30,000 was drawn from the Patriotic Bank, and deposited, as it was, with full legal power, and withno violation of the obliga- tions due by him to the government. He preferred the security of individuals over that of a corpora- tion and allowed them the temporary use of the funds, in preference to the creditors o of the Patriotic Bank. This is the head and front ot his offending, and his long known hostility to the rotten bank institutions of Ohio and elsewhere, has thus brought down upon him a sombination of those who thrive.and live from their drippings, and who presumed at this crisis to be able to glut their revenge for his past opposition te their cor- porate interests. e; By reference to the proceedings of the House you will perceive that a resolution of enquiry as to the late duel, emanating from Preston King, of New York, was laid upon the table, thus evincing a con- clusion on the part of a majority of the House not to agitate an affair ending as that was ended, in smoke. The full account of the duel, as forwarded to you and published in the Herald, receiv- ed here to-day, was read with great interest. The facts were communicated to me by a gen tleman who was present at the meeting, the for- tunate termination of which met with gratifica- aon of all parties. To the high minded and pa- cific course of Mr. Raynor, of North Carolina, must this result be mainly attributed, and in jus- tice to that gentleman, I am here induced to state that no communication of any of the particulars contained in my recent letter eminated from him, or _was given with his knowledge. The movement in the Senate yesterdey on the Oregon question produced a rumor that rome com- munication would be made to-day to that body in Executive session, but such wasnot the case. The secret session was occupied in the confirmation of appointments, a list of which I send you in another package. You will perceive that the nomination of Mr. Abeel, the biographer of President Tyler, although rejected yesterday for the Consulate to the Sandwich Islands, wasreconsidered to-day and confirmed. The nomination ef Col. Wm. H. Polk as Charge to Naples will be confirmed. It has made considerable excitement here, and some per- sons have been illnatured enough to assert that the President elect, would, in return for this favor to one of hie kith and kin, select President Tyler as the representative of the government to the Court of St. James, where his young and blooming bride can receive the compliments of lorded nobility as a contrast to those that have been so profusely tendered at the White House by the real lords of creation. James K. Polk has never contracted for such an arrangement, but the selection of Presi- dent Tyler for the Court of St. James or any other European capital, could not be considered as a violation of any of the powers conferred upon Mr. Polk by the real democracy of the country. The nomination of Henry C. Atwood, for Sur- veyor of your port, is still before the Senate. He will be confirmed, and as seon as it ismade mani- fest the peculiar position of several applicants for the place, and the means taken by them and their friends to defeat his confirmation, will be fully ex - posed. The nomination of Mr. Suydam, as Navy Agent, has not been acted upon in the Senate. The most extensive efforts are exercised to defeat him by those who wish his position. They must suc- ceed in his rejection or all will fail, as his sterling democratic character and influence will endorse him_N. T. B. R.—not to be removed—by James K_ Polk. wi gs dig William Shaler, Esq., of your city, will proba- bly be nominated by President Tyler as- Charge d@’Affairs to Guatamala, South America. As Ihave before informed you, the correspon- dence and negociations with Great Britain relative to Oregon, wiil be laid before Congress in a few days in order that some definite action may be taken before the close of the session. The Territory will be occupied—Great Britain may growl, but bite she dare not. ss : The Texas debate was not continued to-day in the House, the whole morning being oce' with other business. Dr. Hemmeth, of it has the floor, and will speak “to-morrow. twenty others are preparing to talk their hour, and I should not be surprised if the «debate was con- tinued another week. The anti-Texas members of the democratic party have become much alarm- ed within the past few ears at their peculiar posi- tion, and several will be found fully retracting and retracing their past efforts. They are here dignified with the appellation of “mules,” to distimguish them from the Simon Pure democrat, as General McConnellfeays, their assumption of the qtitle of “democrat” is as sacrilegious as it would be for a mule to claim that he was an animal cf God’s creation, when the truth is well known, that to man’s inventive genius alone must be attributed the production of this half breed, long eared, slow paced, dumb faced caricature of horse flesh. TWENTY-BIGHTH CONGRESS. SECOND SESSION. In Senate. Wasuineton, Jan. 16, 1845 A communication was laid belore the Senate from the Post Office Department; in compliance with a resolution of the Senate, embracing infor- mation and statistics of the operation of the penny postage syetem in Evgland, which was laid on the table, and ordered to be printed. : Mr. Taran returned trom committee the bill for the establishment of the National Smitheonian Institution, with ameddments, which will be no- tieed when the consideration of the bill isresumed.
