Few persons | are aware of the immense wealth that is annu- | ally brought into the country by emigrants. A | few years since the British government got alarm. | ed about the amount of specie taker out of the country. A committee of the House of Com- mons was appointed to inquire into the matter; and after considerable research and trouble, they arrived at the conclusion that the enormous amount of two millions of pounds stering, or ten millions of dollars, were cagsied out of the coun- try by emigrants. Assuming that emigrants from all other parts of the world take a like sum, it will be perceived that the sum of twenty millions of dollars in specie is imported into the country by emigrants. This must of course enrich the country in a re- markable degree ; but we question if ijt be more valuable than the bone and sinew that accompa- ny it. Every addition to the population of the country increases its wealth and strength. Each emigrant becomes a producer and consumer im- mediately, and helps to settle the inexhaustible wilds of the West, which need but the hand of ndustry to make them teem with nature’s fruits. 240 | Tre Ocean Race.—The steamers Cambria and Great Britain commence a race of four thousand miles this day, one from Boston and the other from this port. The result of this race will settle forever the utility of the screw or snbmerged propel- ler; and great interest is felt as to the result by ship builders and commercial men. The Cam- bria is by no means an insignificant competitor, for she is considered the fastest of the Cunard line; and with the exception of the last trip of the Great Britain, has made the shortest passage on record between the two countries. We are in- formed that the captains of both these splendid vessels are determined not to go faster than on or- dinary occasions, and feel as much interested in | the result as others do. It will be a fair trial be- tween the side wheels and the propeller.

Mr. Apnnr Benepict opened the defence, he said they would rely on the fact, that the legal ownership of the vessel was in Burnham at the time he made the affidavit, and that it was the practice at the custom house to re- quire the person who had the legal title in him, to make the affidavit to entitle him to the custom house pa 3 3 elief; and secondly, they would show that even the equitable ownership was out of Loveland at the time the ufti- devit was made. Witnesses forthe defence were called and proved that there were unsettled accounts between Loviand and Burnham, and thai latter claimed a large sum to be due him on part of accounts.

About 12 o'clock toda: the Grand Jury came into Court and were discharge: Court of special Sessions. Before the Recorder and two Aldermen. Jury 31.—The members of the court mustered about half past 9 o’clock this morning, and proceeded to the trial of the following cases. John Kilby, a young mun, was first placed at the bar onacharge of stealing a coat and a pair of pantaloons from a Mr. Duzenbury. John plead guilty and was sent up to the island jor three months. Jane Johnson was next called to trial ona charge of a cloak belonging to John Smulle: ‘oor judged guilty, and also booked for a three months residence on the island. Elizabeth McCall, Isabella McCall and Mary McCall, were nae ee at the bar to answer for cominitting an assault and battery upon a Mrs. Margaret McLaughlin, by throwing stones and other missiles at her. Mrs. Mc: Laughlin deposed that she had been severely injured by some of the stones that were thrown at her. On the part of the defence several witnesses testified that Mrs. Mc- Laughlin was the aggressor, and a cross complaint hav- ing Hast made against her she was put on her trial. The court adjudged both parties guilty, reprimanded them se verely, but suspended judgment on condition of future_ good behavii Charles Henry Williams, colored, was found guilty of stealing an overcoat; for which offence he was sent to th beating his of the com- penitentiary for one month trick R. Boyle, charged with ay. wife, was remanded to prison, on account plainant not appearing to testify. Matthew McKay was the: for having given with his fist. Brid, pitiable tale of the suffering: Unsergo on account of the drubbings which Matthew occasionally inflicted. Matthew, on being asked what he had to say in his defence, assured the Court that Bridget was a hard customer to get along with, and on more than one occasion she had not only made some un- favorable impressions on his mind, but her finger nails had frequently left deep and lasting impressions on his hands and face; and that if the Court would allow him to slide for this time, he would keep himself at avery res- pectful distance from his cara sposa for the future. The Court, doubtless presuming from appearances that Mat- thew’s story was correct, et him step out, Samuel Danforth, charged with steuling about $3 worth of sessing apparel, on being called to the bar plead was sentenced to be imprisoned in the peni- tentiary for three months. John Rutherford was next placed on his trial for hi ing Committed an assault upon the person of Mra. Mar- garet Hogan, of Doverstreet.

MONEY MARKET. ‘Friday, July 31—6 P.M. There was some activity in the stock market to-day, and prices improved: -Harlem went up 134 percent; Norwich & Woreoster }¢; Reading %; Farmers’ Loan x. At the second board prices improved a fraction, with very moderate rales. There appears to be a movement going on in Harlem, which is rapidly inflating the mar- ket price of that stock. It has already reached the level of Norwich & Worcester, and will, without doubt, pass beyond it. It is controlled by a small clique of operators, and we look for a smash as soon as it may suit their pur- poses to let it ceme. It would be well for the outsiders to watch the market closely, and slip out as soon asthe turning point has been made. It is not far ahead; and at the rapid rate this stock hos advanced during the rest week or two, it will soon be reached. There was only a moderate demand for foreign ex: change, for remittance by the Boston steamer. Prime bills on London sold at 7% a73¢ per cent premium. but there were good bills offering at seven percent premium. We quote bills on Paris 640 a Sf 37%; Amsterdam 38% a 3994; Hamburg 84% a 34%; Bremen 76% 8 76%. The passage of the ad valorem tariff bill has created considerable activity at the custom house, and every one appears to be in a great hurry to get their goods throurh, and into the market. The cash entries have been unusually large. We have no doubt but that the month of August will bea very busy month at the aus- tom house, in the way ofentries for importation; and efter that the principal business will be entries for exporta- tion, as an immense quantity of foreign merchandize will be exported during the months of October and No- vember, for the benefit of drawback and re-importation, under the reduced rate of duty. The importation of foreign merchandiza after the Ist of October, until the new tariff goes into operation, will be extremely limited, and only to the extent of the actual and immediate demand for consumption, and only in instances where there will be, after the Ist of Decem- ber, an iicreased duty. The revenue from customs from this to the Ist of December, will be very small, while the expenditures are going on at the rate of several hundred thousand dollars per day. The ten millions surplus, and the ten millions treasury notes, will be expended long before that time The expendi- ture of that amount has already been incurred, but as yet the payments have not been made; when the drafts come for the money, the deposits to the credit of the government,in our banks, will be swept away very rapidly. We have not, as yet, begun to feel the effect of the Mexican war upon the finances of the government, orthe influence upon the money market of the with- drawal of such a large sum from our banks. It is true that the treasury notes will, if they pass into general circulation, fll the vacuum toa certain extent, but not otherwise. Atpresent, therefore, all is doubt and uncer- tainty, in relation to our financial policy, so far as the re- ceipts and expenditures of the government are concerned- ‘The Senate have under consideration the Independent Troasury bill. It will not pass that body as it came from the House of Representatives, and we have an impres- sion that the House will not conctir with the Senate in the amendments proposed, in the event of their passing that body, There appears to be a very serious divi- sion in the democratic ranks in the Senate upon this question, a division as great and important as. that in relation to the tariff. ‘The result of this n will probably be the adoption of a more liberal restrictive bill than would, under other circum. stances, have been carried through. A number of very important alterations and amendments have been made and proposed to this bill as it came from the lower house, but as yet itis in @ very imperfect shape; it would therefore, be difficult to point out its features, or to tell what will be the complexion of the bill when perfected. ‘There has been a desperate attempt made by the Chair- man of the FinanceCommittee to attach a clause to the bill, giving the government unlimited power to issue drafts,or in other words, authorising the Treasury department to become a department of issue. The object of this isto favor, in every way, at almost any sacrifice, even by ade. rangement ofthe currency, the favorable operation of the new tariff act. The chairman of this committee knows that under a restricted currency, a currency regula. ted upon a specie basis, the new tariff would not produce a net revenue of twenty millions of dollars; and it becomes, therefore, in his opi- nion, actually necessary that the currency should be in- flated in some way. It ii tonishing what a vast differ- ence a name has upon the minds of politicians. The ides of a “government bank” is perfectly horrible to a modern democrat, but a “department of issue” attached to the not, therefore, so ob- Jectionable to the opponents of the old bank. ‘The proposition made by the chairman of te Commit. tee on Finance in the Senate, to give the Secretary of the Treusury unlimited power to issue treasury notesir drafts,in sums of fiftydollars,one hundred,and two handred and fifty, is one of the most monstrous measures that ever emanated from the democratic party of the present day; one that would have damned the whig party at once, : han | pillow towels, &c, valued ut $10, belonging to | some three or four hundred dollars, which with th y elected by the Ame: icun citizens, to hi | had it been in power, and been guilty of such an act. oe Da eed oad Bonners pursued Uscoline “ ih So. ua West Bieadwey elonging thrilt, intelligence and indutry, war &c tad quite ref mela in bed city, dated at Oregon City on the 4th of | The dewocratic party have just passed a new tariff ; if fo the Pacific ani ere they would turn at bay. | other articles, such as dresses, a hat, br pin, cient to insure them gn indepencence in dumber busi | “4 go, f th that tariff is defective, and wil it, under th : ‘ ; toler ive Staie } me of the settlers aro returning to the Sta'es— " not, under the operation All this can be averted, not by force, but by a line | To esesion, tolocaing vo sighearct casa, ‘ot Cron etl ho “Aire peo hb Bese 4 Siaipaeee in which, on some because Qreqou does not come up to their expec- | ofa proper regulated currency, produce sufficient re- of policy consistent with our institutions and the | Committed for trial by J Drinker.
