Jucy 1.~Fasnionasie Roystenens iy a Fix—Resrec- tapitity Devinep,—Strange, curious and mysterious are many of the events daily occurring in this vast metropo- lis—incidents of the most g Character which never see the light. The long mooted question of what consti- tutes respectability, however, has at length been decided by the following singutar occurrence :--Our young ex- quisites can now have an opportunity of det heir position and achieving the right to 0 in public esti- mation. Three young gentlemen nging to the Up- per ten thousand,” dressed in the lat hion, perfum- ed and whiskered according to the new aye were ar rested ona very novel charge. One of them is a wealthy married man with a large family—one a distinguished member of the medical fraternity, and the other a ci-de- vant captain on half pay. Ti worthy and interesting specimens of our city bucks, met one bright moonlight evening, some weeks since, at the celebrated C: ‘or- toni, where, aftera sumptuous repast and the usual quan- tity of pale sherry, they proceeded to the very recherché establishment of Mrs. Phoebe Doty, in Elm street. The lady paid them all the attention which such distingue peo- ple merited,and bottle after bottle of sparkli undy was Called for—at length the lights were suddenly blown out, and a scratching noise was heard. ‘They were re-lit, however, and with the same rv What was the mat ter nobody could possibly ima; "The landlady s ted the gentlemen, and the gentlemen accused the dy. At last the room grew suddenly dark companied by the same strange sound, aud now the landlady detected the Doctor as the offender—a bot- tle of wine, however, settled the difficulty, order was re- stored, andthe gentlemen rose to go; the lady was par- ticularly civil, and the gentlemen particularly drunk. They managed, however, to walk out, and reach a car- riage, which was probably driven to their different resi- dences. But to return to the landlady; she had proceed. edto examine the apartment for the purpose of discof vering the cause of the tiisextely noises which had se often disturbed the party, when, to her utter horror and dismay, the valuable and magnificent sofa on which one of the ‘gentleman had reposed, was found all cut in pieces—the hair cleth was slashed in forty places, and the mahogany for ever ruined. The exquisites could not be found until to-day, when they were brought to - the police office, and the affairexamined. How it will end, we cannot say; the names of the parties are, how- ever, for the present withheld. Sreatinc Cxroruinec.—Wm. Johnson was arrested, charged with stealing one calico dress, value $5, from ‘Wm, Irving, 110 Liberty street. Lost 1x ax Omxipus.—A lady, while riding in one ot the Bowery omnibuses last week, lost a magnificen diamond breast pin, with seven brillia Sreauina Rican nson Utley was arrested, charged with stealing a lot of rigging, value $4, from Gilbert Jane, 432 Cherry street.

Buncuary.—The Turtle Bay House was entered on Sunday by Ux ere of thieves, and a patent lever gold watch, four silver watches anda large quantity of silver ware and jewelry stolen therefrom. The young rowdies were observed feaving the house afew minutes before the robbery was discovered. AxotHen.—The house No. 183 Henry street, was rob- bed night before last of silver ware and clothing. Norice Extnaorpiwany.—A mock auction room in Broadway, near John street, had the following singular notice on the door this afternoon—‘Closed in consequence of one of the managers having been kicked out by a boy 12 years of age.” What does it mean ? eS s Son Soroner’s Office.

Common Pleas, Before Judge Ingraham. Juty L—Henry Kelly vs, John Geraghty.—This was an action of assum) to recover the amount of certain moneys which had been loaned by plaintiff at different times previous to 15th July, 1844. The moneys, it was alleged, were lent over on part of the plaintiff by a party named Cassady. The defence set'up was, that no money was ever loaned—the plaintiff being poor, and a judgment having been entered against him, which it was alleged he was not able to pay. Verdict for plaintiff, $240 10, and 6 cents costs. Hee plaintiff, W. Mulock; for defendant, Alderman lenry. William S, Bancroft vs. Mary White, administratriz of William Mathews, deceased.—This was an action to reco- ver the value of a quantity of champaign cyder, which was purchased in July, 1836, by the deceased, William Mathews, who was the Captain of a ship, and traded be- tween this port aud Mobile. ‘The defendant, Mrs. White, was wifo to deceased, and it appeared administered after her second marriage with a Mr. White. She pleads in defence, the statuie of limitations. Verdict this fore- noon, Before Judge Daly. EIDr. S. Smith and. Frederick ‘skiff vs. Horatio N. Carr and John Moore.—'This was action of assumpsit to reco- ver the value of certain groceries which had been sold to defendants in the fall of 1844. The defendants are pro- prietors of the “Exchange Hotel,” and set up in defence an agreement which, it was alleged, had been made be- tween the parties, to the effect that one of them (Skif) should be found in board jet-off against the bill. Both defendants, it appeared, were partners in the grocery business. Verdict this forenoon.

Considerable excitement was created in Well street by the refusal of the Board of Directors of the Erie Railroad Company to pay the interest on their bonds due to-day. The object is to bring the affairs of the concern to a crisis and compel Mr. Lord, the President, to resign, orabandon the work altogether. The President well knows that so long as he acts inthat capacity the road will linger along and perhaps never be completed, as an expiration of the present charter, without being con" formed to its provisions, will seal the fate of the line and delay its construction for y: He well knows how strong the existing prejudice is against him, but refuses to resign and evinces a determination to have the road completed under his management or sink it altogether. He seems disposed to sacrifice the whole concern rather than give up the position he occupies in its government, Itis extremely unfortunate that such an individual should have obtained sufficient interest inthe work to regulate its affairs independent of the wishes of the other stockholders and of the public. The course pur- sued by the directors in this business can hardly be justified, but it must be admitted that the circumstances palliate the offence. Joseph Lawrence, Esq., has been elected President of the Bank of the State of New York, in place of Corne- lius W. Lawrence, appointed Collector of Customs. The foreign trade of each State and Territory inthe Union, and the value of the imports'and exports, will be seen in the annexed table. ‘The imports and exports of the State of New York exceed, any other, the imports being about five-eighths of the total importation of the country, and the exports nearly one-third.

Morchants doing business in neigh- boring cities—Boston and Philadelphia—receive a large portion of their foreign goods by the way of New York but a very large per cent of the foreign manufactures imported into the country, is owned by or consigned tor the merchants of this city, and this market is therefore” the most important in the States for these goods, and ai’ tracts customers from all parts of the Union for supplies About three-fourths of the duties from customs are re ceived at this port, and the various lines of packets esta- blished between this port and the principal ports of Europe, must give this market the control of the foreign trade of the country. A very large portion of the value of our exports is drawn from other States, south and west. Cotton toa large amount is shipped from this port to Europe, but the bulk of the domestic exports from this port is in provisions, flour and grain. The exports from Massachusetts and other eastern States are principally manufactured goods of all descrip- tions; from Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia, the exports are principally agricultural products, a large per cent of which is tobacco,raised in the two last named States. About two-thirds of the value of domestic pro- duce exported from Maryland is in tobacco. The ex- ports from the southern States are almost exclusively the products of those sections, such as rice and cotton. Ac. cording to the above table the value of domestic produce exported from the cotton-growing States in 1844 amount- ed to $54,263,958. The total value of cotton exported from the United States in 1844 was $54,063,501, which shows that the exportation of domestic produce other than cotton from these States, was more than suficient to offset the quantity of cotton shipped to the northern and eastern ports of the country. The exports trom Ohio and Michigan were direct to Canada and were compoised al- most entirely of provisions and grain. The third importing State in the Union is Louisiana,and the impertations are composed chiefly of coffee and salt, for consumption in the interior of the western country, The rapid growth of Louisiana and its important position as an exporting State, gives its citizens confidence in the belief that before the lapse of many years New Orleans must become the largest importing depot in the country, So far as geographical position is concerned it has im- mense advantages, and tie settlement of the western country must increase its foreign and domestic busmess very much, but its climate is suficient to materially re, tard its progress to commercial prosperity. It is possi- ble the rapid improvements going on in its vicinity, may ultimately prevent the annual visitetion of the yellow fever, but until something of this kind is accomplished, New Orleans cannot become the great depot of foreign and domestic merchandise, to which the country wil look for supplies, that many anticipate. It is impossible to tell, however, what may not happen ina country of such unbounded enterprise as this. The course of trade is frequently suddenly changed, and cities having an ex- tensive commerce have rapidly decayed. The greatest instance we have of this, in the United States, is in New" port, Rhode Island, and some other places of less note; and st is possible that in the history of this country more important revolutions in commerce than these places have experienced will be realized. ‘The Court of Appeals of Maryland has made severiy important decisions in relation to the Stamp uct, passed by the Legislature of that State last winter. The en- forcement of the law created coasiderable «lissatisfac- tion, and several imaginary cases were made out, for the purpose of testing the law andito settle the points deemed so onerous. The mercantile classes found the act ,very restrictire upon their operations, and we have no doubt movements will be made to have the law modified or re- poaled. ‘The decision of the Court of Appeals which we will relieve the community from many of the re" strictions the act placed upon them, but difficulties must. be experienced so long as the act remains upon the sta- tates as it now reads, or is subject_to so many construc- tions as have been put upon it. We give the questions presented for decision, and the conclusions of the court. Manviaxp—IMvontant Drcisioxs— Questions ARaurp, First—Whether the bond of a trustee under a decree is within the provisions of the first section of the Act.

Fifith—Whether a certificate of depostt issued by a bank in the State to a bona fide depositor payable to or der and o1 sentation, is within it. hether such'a certificate issued by order of the bank in Baltimore whose charte: isted before, and was continued by the Act of 1821, cl 1, such bank ha- ving accepted the act of 1884,ch. 274, in it. jet enth— Whether a mort; containing a covenant to pay the mortgage debt is within it.

That “ bonds and obligations” are to be confined to such asare given for the yment of money: and not for the performance of some official or other act orduty. That the banks are secured in the priv loge of issuing cheeks, whether at sight or otherwise: bills of exchange, whe ther foreign or domestic; and certificates of deporite; ane that this Briviloge does not exist only in. virtue of the Act of 1821, ch, 131, sec. 11, and is not therefore either confined to'the ‘ Old Banks” as they are termed, nor li- mited as to its duration to the 10th March, 1816, when in our opinion the old charters will expire. The Attorney General and the adverse counsel having arnestly “ourt, upon the various other points filed in these causes ond fully and ably segped, we feel justified in the - ‘ar condition of the case and in the known anxiety of he business portion of the community to be advised on aese questions, in expres: the conclusions to which ‘he argument and a conside: of the authorities have conducted us, We think the law does not he following instruments: A mortgage without a covenant to pay; zy lease on which 1s reserved a rent in money or in spe- cifies; a‘ An assignment of ty in consideration of an an- nuity to be paid by the grantee for the life of the grantor; An order or draft not sold, or intended to be put into circulation, but made solely to obtain possession by the party of his own funds, ’ Pond ze think a stamp necessary to the instruments following A mortgage with acovenant to pay, and whether such | mortgage be the ondy security taken, or whether there be also a note or bond also stamped and for the same we the note or bond being of course to be stamped.

Tn expectation of the decimation at the Land Of- fice, there was an unusual degree of flustering and trepidation in that bureau this morning. Expectants waiting in the passages, and fresh applicants in the ante-chamber of the active little Bob Walker. At two o’clock the only change of consequence was that of F. W. Thomas, author of Clinton Bradshaw and other novels, and the notorious Beechen Tree and other poems. Known to be a decided and ac- tive whig, it was his literary character and his lame foot that saved him from an unqualified discharge. As it is, he is removed from a $1800 clerkship down stairs into a snug little place of $1000.

We shall have more and speriat the Presidential elections henceforward,and the printers will reap largely of the ite resulting from more liberal expenditures of money. A lot of large boxes have arrived at the East room from the house of J. & J. W. Meeks, 14 Vesey street, New York—new sofas, easy chairs, &c. Mra. Polk says that she must be back to the White House this day week at all hazards; for she concurs in the spirit of the old song— “Be it ever so humble, There’s no place like home.” At Mr. Sprele’s (2d Presbyterian) Church, yester- day, among the dignitaries present, were the Execu- tive family, Mr. Buchanan, Mr. Walker, Mr. Ban- croft, Mr. Senator Bagby, and others. Mr. Sprole is an able and pleasin, aker, and the congre; tion is eine, Pleasing, cpeaker, sad Gales od say. Hion. Wilson Shannon has arrived. Now we must know all about these instalments. He lo i pale, and broken down. We hope he will makea ge case of it—we are assured, indeed, that he will. Hon. Samuel Lopes is here, now Marshall of the Western District of Pennsylvania, on business, of course. Hon, Paul Dillingham, of ‘Vermont, is here, the only locofoco of that delegation. Of course he must have something. Hon. W. B. McClay, of New York, is booked at Fuller’s, the most conve- nient hotel to the Executive,Departments. Hon. George Sykes, who is still at the United States, is still spoken of for Commissioner of the Public Build- ings, place of Noland, whig. M. Durval, of the Cherokee Nation, is at Fuller’s. The Cherokees are impatient at the delay of the Government in settling their heavy account with John Ross. Sam Houston is expected every day, and we tell the democrats, if they don’t take care of him, he will turn about and play the mischief with their cal- culations in the little matter of the succession. And last, though not least, we are to have a royal wedding in town in a day or two. Mr. J. R. Smith, a merchant of Philadelphia, and a Miss White, of this city, daughter of one of our merchants, are to the happy firm in this copartnership. Huzza. P.S. A friend in whom we can always rely, hands us the following as a list of the removals to- day in the land office. More may be expected soon:— Removars. Messrs.

Passing down the long avenue to the Ca- pitol, suddenly came a acluster of half a do- zen ordinary looking Christians on a platform be- fore . hotel ‘singing all together, to the sentimental alr 0! ’ “ Thou—thou—reign’st in this bosom.” A temperance or teetotal song, of which we caught a verse, and give it as a sample of the piece : “Ram ! rum! thou has d me, Now—now—my slavery is o’er ; Long, long, have | obey’d thee, But now I'll not drink any more. No—no—ne—no, No, I'll not drink any more. After which a crowd having been attracted by the minstrels, the orator of the day, a savage looking ian, with a bushy head, and a very warlike coun- tenance took the platform, and harangued the meet- tng on rum and the hanging, of McCurry at Balti- more, and the suicide of Van Buskirk, Secretary of State of Maryland, and other characters and crimes connected with rum drinking. He was tollowed by a pale, thin faced man, who gave the most hor- rible experience of dram drinking, and then called ain the people to sign the pledge, and one or two old soakers scared out of their seven senses, I was told, put their names to the paper ordering their grog to be stopped. the political movernents here—of the deep wound upon the sensibilities of the Executive, by Major Lewis—of the absolute dictatorship of the id hunkers of Albany—of the movement of Sam Houston for the Vice Presidency in conjunction with Silas Wright—of the coolness between the French Minister and the Executive—of a, protest received against the appointment of Captain Ryn: ders to your Custom House—ef recent communica- ions to the squadron and the United States agents in Texas—of a letter to the State Department from Mexico respecting those instalments | of the anxiety felt for the health of Mr. Shannon—of an organiza tion among the Calhoun men to arrest the despotic sway of the old hunkers—ot the open hostility of the youn Senne Ret the Tyler men, all these and various other rumors, reports, or movements, your correspondents will advise you more correctly. Wasninaton, June 29, 1845, ‘The letter of Gen. Van Ness—the exposé of Major Lewis—the clamor against McLane—not to speak of Mexico and ‘Texas, do most sorely grieve the Ad- ministration. The vengeance of Lewis is complete and dreadful; yet dreadful as it seems, had he, we ask, had he any other alternative? None. The weakness with the President, in his bold design of exterpating the Old Kitchen Cabinet, was, in giving any apology at all for the movement as far as the re moval of Lewis or of any other man was cencerned. It would have been the safest course—the only safe course—to “assume the responsibility,” as in the case of the “ organ”—or if any plea were required to appease the lion of the Hermitage, (peace to his soul) why not rest alone upon the republican plea of “ rota- ion?” Of all other, pleas of the danger of a woman’s onguete.the most icate and hazardous Gf h.
