Law, Esq, the enterprising owner of the Oregon, to obviate the difficulty, by despatching the mail by ether means. Their first step was to send a communication by telegraph to Bos- | ton, informing the agents of the Caledonia of the accident, and requesting them to detain that vessel for a short time after her appointed hour | of sailing, as he was about to despatch the mails in some way. They then waited on the su- perintendent of the Long Island Railroad, who placed a locomotive at their disposal, and at twelve o’clock on that night the whole of the large mail had been taken from the Oregon, | t d n 3 i A | in this city are to elect a Sheriff, a County Clerk, em pora.

High prices for cotton bring out every bale in the hands of producers. In times of scarcity, the picking is very thorough, and that which would in other season be hardly worth collecting, is care: fully gathered and sent to market. the supply proves tatbe much larger than the con. dition of the growing crop would warrant us in believing. Every one engaged in the trade mus' recgllect the * storm eotton” which was so plenty inthe market about three years since, and we have no doubt there will be something simila: among the receipts of this crop. While high prices bring out everything in the shape of cotton, they have a tendency to check consumption. which goes a great way towards effsetting the effect of a short crop. months previous to that time, had been about one thousand bales less than it had been previous to that time, and that the manufacturers were using more Surat than they were in the habit of doing. The manufacturers were producing thinner and lighter goods, and were in every way more eco- nomical in the use of the raw material. We have no doubt the consumption throughout Great Bri- tain, will be in the aggregate less this year than last. There are other things tending toa reduction of the consumption ot cotton in Europe, besides high prices forthe raw material, and that is the high prices for breadstufls and provisions. This will require an advance in the price of labor, to place the consuming classes upon a level with their past condition, or a reduc- tion in the time of labor. A great decrease in the home consumption of British manufactures, will be the result of the present state of things, which, in connection with the abundant supply of fa- brics already in all the foreign markets, must have a tendency to restrict the manufacture of cotton goods this year, very materially. In view of all these facts, we come to the con- clusion that there are causes operating against the consumption of cotton, which will tend to mode- rate prices and prevent speculation from running riot. The supply of the raw material is likely to be fully equal to the demand for consumption, even in the event of our crop proving to be much less than that of last year. By referring to our Jast files of English papers, we notice consider- able stress placed upon the large supply of Surat cotcon in warehouses in India. It is stated by some, that nearly three entire crops have ac- cumulated there, in consequence of the former low price of the American cotton, and its supe- rior cleanliness—by some, the amount is stated at 600,000 bales, and by others larger figures, ran- ning up to 1,000,000 bales. Reference is also made to cargoes, expeeted in England, from ad- vices which went forward three months ago— this will have a material effect on the stock in | Liverpool, and con: nently on prices. —— Avornuer Western ConveNTION.—At an ad- journed meeting of the Chamber of Commerce of the City of St. Louis, held on the thirteenth day of October last, a series of resolutions were adopted cordially approving of ‘the holding ofa convention, to consider the powers and duties of the general government to assist, protect, and advance the inland commerce of the country, by the removal of dangerous obstructions from the Mississippi, Ohio, Missouri, and other rivers and highways of trade, and for the improvement of harbors thereon and upon the shores of the north- em lakes,” and recommending that city as the most suitable place, on account of its easy access to all persons residing in the sections most imme. diately interested, and the 10th of May, 1847, as the best time, because the commerce of the lakes wnd rivers is most active then, for holding the convention, and also inviting delegates from the south and south west, north and middie States to attend. We question very much whether any good can be attained by a convention of this kind, and are disposed to believe that if it be held, it will be a second edition of the Memphis convention. There is very little doubt but that the yield will be less than that of the last crop, bat how much less no human being ‘The mania for putting forth estimates, long before the plant has matured, has done a In this way Our accounts from Eng- land of the 4th of October, state that the weekly ; consumption of American cotton for tke two | Tue Ruopg Istanp Asnorr—Tue Orgaox.—The steamboat Rhode Island, Captain Manchester, was driven ashore on Huntington Beach, Long Island, in the storm yesterday, about 12 0’clock, | while on her passage to New York with the eastern mail. She lays about 80 rods from the | shore, and 45 miles from New York, with a heavy sea running and breaking over her. It being too rough to launch a boat, a letter was placed in a bottle and the bottle tied to a barrel, which was thrown overboard and drifted on the beach, and thus a communication was had with those on board the unfortunate steamer. The letter was directed to the President of the | Company, requesting the aid of a steamboat to | be sent to their relief immediately. We learn , | that no lives were lost. The passengers must | | have been in a very unpleasant situation last | | night. | We understand that a steamboat was despatch- ed forthwith to the assistance ofthe Rhode Island The Oregon, which met with an accident on Saturday, will be immediately repaired, and be ready to again take her place in the line to-mor- row. The passengers were sent to Boston in the | Narraganset. it r h Theatricals. | Park ‘Twxatne.—Mr. Collins was warmly greeted on | Saturday evening, and his reception proved him,to be a | great favorite with the New York public. This evening | he will appear as Captain O'Rourke in the comedy of the ‘Soldier of Fortune,’’and as Terence O’Grady in the new farce of the “ Irish Post.” The former play has not beon before produced in this country, though it was brought out in London with great success. Mr. Collins. will during the evening sing several of his popular Irish | songs, which are always received with such hearty ap- | lause. Mrs. Hunt will appear in the first piece as the | Buke of Anjou, and we anticipate much pleasure from her performance of the character. The evening's enter- | tainment will conclude with the farce of “' Lend me Five Shillings.” On the whole, this is one of the most at- tractive bills of the season. Boweny Taeatne.—There will probably be a crowd. | ed house collected this evening, to greet Mrs. Coleman Pope on her first public appearance on the American | stago. ‘This lady has attained a high rank as a tragic ac- | tress in Europe, and, indeed, in Liverpool critical audi- ences pronunced her as unsurpassed in her profession. | ‘The character in which she will appear, is that of Mar- garet Elmore in «Love's Sacrifice,” a part well adapted to call into play all the variety of her dramatic powers. Mr. De Bar, well known emong us as a melo-drama and pantomimic actor of much merit, will also make his first ‘appearance after «long absence from the Bowery boards, in the character of Strappado, in the drama of | the “ Dumb Girl of Genoa.” The Misses Vallee appear | in one of their favorite dances. Bowery Cincus.—A new candidate for publie favor is | this evening tocommence anengagement at this popu- lar place of amusement, Mr. W. H. Kemp, and if he in | any way fulfil the expectations which are raised on the strength of his European reputation, he will prove a great card forthe management. Amongst others, he will exhibit the astonishing feat of running on an empty | cask, going onit up and down an inclined plane, down a | flight of stairs, &c. The Italian clown Carlo is with: | | drawn the present week, he being actively engaged in | the preparation for a grand new pantomime, in which he and his talented children will sustain the principal char: | | acters. North, the equestrian, will also appear this evening. ‘Tho performances at the Circus are of a high order, replete with novelty and variety, which hereto- fore have nightly filled the house. | MRarwony & Waninc’s Mexacenie—The collection of living animals in this establishment is probably the most complete that ever has been oxhibited in this city’ and will repay a visit from the lover of natural history, | The place is admirably arranged, and its convenient | situation 8 it great advantages seldom possessed by anestablishment of the kind.

Ancn Street Theatre, Percapenrata.—Mr. Burton, the manager, has kindly offered the proceeds of thie evening's performance for the benefitof the Franklin Library Company, and a strong bill is offered for the oc- casion: The operatic drama of Rob Roy,” and the Ame- | rican drama of the ‘Siege of Monterey” will both be pro- duced, with a powerful cast of characters. Wawser Staret Taearne, Puttapetenma—The opera troupe of the Seguins’ commence their season this Srening in the aimired opera of the “Bohemian Girl.” | Mr. and \ Seguin, Mr. Frazer and F. Meyer will a | tain the principal parts After which the farce of "A man without a head,” will be performed. Hows & Co.’s Cincus.—The talented corps of éques trians forming this establishment, still continue their tour, though approaching near home. They play the | coming week in some of the principal town Pl Ni | Jersey. On the 6th inst. our Trenton friends will have an opportunity of seeing them.

The polls will open at sunrise and close | atsunset. The contest will bea highly important one in a dozen points of view, We have been at some pains to makeup the following list of candidates to be voted for through- out the State. The names have been collected | from the most authentic sources, and the list is probably as correct as any list of the kind can be | made. It will be seen that we are to vote for a Gover- | nor,a Lieut. Governor, two Canal Commissioners, thirty-four members to Congress, eight members to the State Senate, and, it is almost impossible to teli how many, members to the Assembly. These are all State candidates.? In addition, the voters and a Coroner. And, besides, we are to vote “yea” or “nay” to a new constitution for the State, and negro suffrage, and then return to the city and vote for or against a new city charter. It is h'ghly necessary, with all these candidates and questions in view, that every voter should devote the whole of this day to study over the list of names; to carefully read over the new | constitution for the State, and the charter for the city; and to reflect upon the consequences that would arise from negro suffrage. After this is done, the voter should retire early to bed in or- der to awake to-morrow morning to the import- ance that his single vote may have upon the destiny ef this city and this State. Annexed are the candidates. They number enough to form an army sufficiently powerful to storm Saltillo or take Tampico. Whata pity it is that the government cannot draft them for that purpose !

Tue Atnamea.—Seldom hi our up-town citizens had such an opportunity of witnessing pleasing and va- ried entertainments as at this establishment, and never, we are sure, at so low a price. To-night there will be music, vocal and instrumental ; displays of ventrilo- quism by Mr. Wyman, the distinguished imitator ; fe: of mogic by Miss Wyman, who may well be called tl fair enchantress; an exhibition of the Italian Fantoccini, to see which, of themsel are worth double the price of admission ; anda of Plesting dances b; the pretty Jesselyne. is, we think, suffi variety and attraction to draw as large a number tog: as the saloon can accommodate. James Donn.—We have seen some notice of the ex- pected arrival of this musician. Formerly eccupying the place of first horn to the Grand Duke of Baden, he is a performer of undoubted merit, and without doubt will meet with great success in this country, if his talent is s great as his reputation would lead us to expect. In Italy, Germany and Europe, he has been highly success- ful. ‘Though the French Horn is the instrument upon which he excels, we are informed that he is also a gui- tarist of great reputation.

K Polk will make another trial of their speed to-day over the above course for a purse of $400—twe mile heats—the mare to go under the saddle and Polk to a skeleton wag- on. There will undoubtedly be a great turn out of the admirers of the turf to witness the above. Previous to the contest between Polk and Lady Suffolk a pacing match for $200 will take pl. heats, best three in five, between the s.g. C ‘h to a wogen, and the r. g.

Vanvertyn’s Nationat Parntina.—The painting re- presenting the landing of Columbus upon the newly dis- covered soil of America, has been for some time past in this cit: we are glad to learn that it has been ex- tensively visited by our citizens, evincit ther proof of their growing taste for the fine arts.

As we look upon it, we feel that the great disco- verer stands before us, mingling with his feelings of gratified prid raise due to the hand which had guided him across the ocean. We have not time to en- ter into the details of this admirable painting, which is alike a credit to the painter and to our country. Few can appreciate the toil, the perseverance, the mind ne- cersary for the projection and completion of a work of this kind and of such magnitude. It is enough to say that Mr. Vanderlyn has overcome all obstacl given to our country the possession of a painting valuable as a historic description, and valuable as a master piece in the art. trust that it will not leave our city with- out the inspection of all who are interested in the ad- vancement of fine arts in America, and who would join | in giving a meed of praise to the artist who has done so | much towards it U. 8.

Common Councit.—Both will meet this even- ing. The Russ pavement report will be made by the . Finance Committee. Should the report be favorable, ‘we may predict that something will be done towards im- proving our streets. Court or Genenat Sessions.—The November term | of this Court commences this morning.

The sale of poisonous drugs, such as are sold in many of the low groggeries, should be held as an in- dictable offence, ulariy when they are palm- ed off'as genuine liquor. This is the evil by which so many victims to intemperance have been mede—namely, not the quantity, but the deleterious quality of the rum that is sold in the vicinity of the | “five-points,” Water street, and in most of the low groggeries in thiscity. Physicans assure us that some of the so-called liquors for and blue stone, turpentine, and several poisonou: - | dients Bhaved been found to make up three-fourths of | the article. Surely, the law could take hold of so glaring | ‘an imposition—so dengerous and de- | |. Aglass of good and genuine liquor, if | taken by those who m tely use an occasio!

Tar New Leotvuses on Human Macnetism.—Duw the last week Professor Rodgers delivered the first o1 his highly onginal and able lectures on this subject to and intellectual audiences in different parte of city, Yorkville, Harlem, and at the new and beautiful Lyceum on Staten Island. We have hitherto hi no lecturer upon Animal Magnetism who has commanded the attention of so large a num- ter of the respectable families of the city, or who seems to have afforded so much rational satisfaetion to in- quiring minds. In fact, in his hands the subject acquires a new and very superior aspect, and we doubt not that his whole course will be heard witha degree of interest and respect which has seldom been excited. It will be seen by the advertisement that he lectures this vmonp- 4 at the Lyceum in Broadway, and then at other parts the city in regular succession. His lectures are usually aecompanied with highly interesting experiments. | Cononen’s Orrick, Nov. 1.—Death from Disease.—The | coroner held an inquest yesterday at No. 350 Hudson st. | onthe body of Alexander McCadden, a native of Ireland, | 17 years of age, who came to his death by disease of the | heart.

Cincinnati . seevee Oct. 18., 6 feet MONEY MARKET. Sunday, Nov. 1—6 P. Dy. The stock market remains about status quo. The daily operations are to a very limited extent, and prices hardly vary a fraction from day to day. Speculators are con. tented with small profits,and even make them out of each other inthe street. The anticipation of difficultics growing out of the condition of our foreign affairs, and the finances of the government is so general, that many are deterred from involving themselves in any stock ope, rations, but it is our impression that these anticipations are without foundation, and that the fears of embarrass. ments of a financial character are entirely groundless. Quotations for fancy stocks, of all descriptions, have reached a very low point, and there is a very wide mar- gin for an advance. Should the Mexican warbe brought to a termination within the next] ninety days, there would immediately follow a very extensive speculation in all these securities. A great many holders are anxiously waiting such a movement, and purchases late- ly have been made to some extent in anticipation of such aresult. There is very little risk taken in purchasing Harlem or Norwich and Worcester at present piices; they both rule below their real value, and the slightest improvement in the aspect of public affairs, generally, must have a very favorable influence upon prices for both of these securities. There are other fancies in the list, which would advance upon the strength of an im- provement in one or two of the leading stocks, but which have nothing within themselves likely to produce such a desirable result. The time is rapidly approach- ing when holders of Harlem and Norwich will look back to present prices with regrot, and wonder why they had #0 little confidence in them as permanent investments.— Many of the best railroad stocks in New England, those which now command twenty and thirty per cent pre- mium, were at one time selling in this market as much below as they are now above par. A few years will suf, fice to produce as great a change in the position of the two above named stocks, as those of New England have realized. ‘We annex a statement giving the quotations of stock in this market for each day of the past week, and at the close of the week previous, There appears to have been very little alteration in prices for any of the fancies ex- cept Norwich and Worcester, which has improved seve- ral per cent.
