Provemént in commercial affairs. Our currency is not yet valuable enough. it does not yet come near enough to the standard of the currency of other countnes. We want greater restrictions placed upon our banking insti. tutions,before we can compete with all nations in prices, or before we can bring the cost of productions in this country down to a point low enough to enable us to ex, port more largely to foreign countries, and shut out more effectually the productions of other nations. We annex a table, giving the condition of every bank, in operation, in the State. The leading items only are given, as they are sufficient to show the movement of each institution.

The returas are still as scattering as ever, and quite as unsatisfactory as to final results. The only returns we have received, are as follows: Aras. Gov Congress. \ Regresen Ind. W. D. w. Dz Ww. D.z ie. 6 6 6 2 30 6190 majority There are several counties yet to be heard from, which will doubtless increase the democratic ma- jority in every branch. The independent demoeratic candidate for Governor, (Martin,) is so far ahead of the regular nominee, as to render his election certain. This is the beginning of the division in the democratic ranks. Martin isthe nominee of the Calhoun party, and Terry the choice of the Van | Buren clique. Already have the Calhoun party | been successful, and doubtless this will be imitated | throughout the Southern States in all ensuing elec- tions. Felix M’Connell run upon his own hook, and | his success has astonished all,not excepting himeelf. He will certainly be drunk for amonth afterwards. | Itis said he told his late constituents, that ‘he was “a plain, flat-footed, venison-backed, unsophistica- ted locofoco, by G—d,”—and that “ if they did noy Lewis | choose to re-elect him, because he took his glass of Second and Third Tiers, 2 cts.;| grog like an independent citizen, they might go to h—ll, and he would go to making harness ; and that | he didn’t care a d—n, only that he didn’t like to be | cork-serewed out of Congress by the intrigueing of | your moccasin-footed nominating convention.” This sounds so much like the majority of Felix’s speeches in Congress, last winter, that we have lit- tle doubt of its genuine character.

Dreadful Affair—A Son of Amos Kendall Killed on Pennsylvania Avenue in broad daylight—Ar- rest and committment of the Prisoner. A most melancholy affair has occurred in our yazell of bank bi sbigy j ooer et boy usually quiet and orderly city. The whole of our f | population are deeply affected. The fracas} and its the city of New York, by Peter Balen, in favor of the subseri- have been dropped board of the steamboat sad and bloody termination are the subject of gene- raldiscussion. In the streets, in public and in pri- vate houses, the untimely end of young Kendall is the all absorbing topic. A gloom, aikin to that which prevailed on the recept of the disastrous ex- plosion on the Princeton, prevails among all grades and classes of our people. Grief for the dead—a mingled indignation and pity for the guilty—a strong and unaffected sympathy for the distressed family of Mr. Kendall, are predominant. It appears that the parties in this case, William Kendall, (son of Amos Kendall,) Rufus Elliott, (a brother-in-law of Mr. John C. Rives, late of the Globe tirm,) and Josiah Bailey, (a printer of this city,) intimates and ffiends for some time past, met at a ten-pin alley yesterday, and after playing some time, young Elliott left some- what displeased at having been cavalierly superced- ed on the board. The three young men (for neither we believe, is over twenty-two years of age) met again at the same alley this afternoon, prior to which, however, an altercation occurred between Elliott and Bailey, in an apothecary’s store, opposite Fuller’s Hotel, on the avenue, in which altercation Bailey struck Elliott and discolored his eye. At the ten pin alley, in the immediate neighborhood, the quarrel was re-agitated and further aggravated be- tween Bailey and Kendall, on the one part, and El- liott on the other ; but without coming to hostilities, Elliott retired, went to his lodgings, and procured a six-barreled revolving pistol, with which, fully charged, he came down upon the avenue, and, en- countering Bailey and Kendall, near Fuller’s Ho- tel, some angry words were interchanged, when Kendall, with a stick, advanced upen Elliott, who immediately drew forth his pistol fired, and shot his antagonist through the breast, killing him al- most immediately. Bailey then advanced upon El- liott, when the latter discharged two barrels at his second adversary, the second discharge shattering his right arm at the elbow to such a degree, as itis feared will render amputation unavoidable. Elliott, with his pistol held in terrorum before him, then ad- vanced to the hotel, clearing the hackmen and others in his wa! in his ration. Enter- ing the hotel, ie passed through the back yard, mak- ing his way across into F street, where, entering a hack, he temporarily made his escape. The ne were inemediately on the alert, but no trace of him, for a time, could be obtained, The body of young Kendall was taken to a neighboring house, as its presence before the family was properly deemed in- judicious, without preparing them in some degree for their sudden affliction. | \ 4 At about ten o’clock this evening, young Elliott was apprehended at the house of arker, on D. street, a_ square distant from Coleman’s hotel. A couple of Justices of the Peace were called in, and after an examination before them, the prisoner was committed till the morning,when he will be re-exa- mined as to his admissibility to bail. Mr. Kendall is absent from home, su ed to be in New York on business connected with the exten- sion of the electric telegraph. The family are in the deepest distress. y ral friends, who were with them this evening, testify that their grief was such as to move the hardest heart to sympathy. The young man thus untimely slain, was esteemed as a youth of many good qualities—of a generally pacific Tieposition--ead of much promise. He was a clerk in the City Post Office. ‘As to the origin of the fracas, there are so many conflicting reports, that we are left entirely in doubt. Young Kendall was, we believe, engaged in mar- riage to a beautiful and accomplished young lady of this city. From the different versions of this unhappy cas- ualty that are afloat, we have thus attempted to com- pile the facts in the case. The fracas occurred at about six o’clock P. M., in one of the most crowd- ed quarters of one of the most public thoroughfares of the city.
