The stock market opened very heavy this morning. and prices fell off a fraction at the first bourd. Farmers’ Loan declined % per cent; Canton 3; Harlem }4; Long Island 2)¢; Indiana, Illinois, Reading, and Norwich closed ‘at yesterday’s prices. Alabama went up per cent; U. 8. 6's 36; and Morris Canal %. At the second board there was 4 slight improvement. Reading Bonds advanced 4 per cent; Harlem 1; Farmers’ Loan 4; Reading Railroad %{ on prices current in the morning, Long Island fell eff 3¢ per cent. The trans- actions at both boards were to some extent. It is with the greatest difficulty present prices are sustained. It will be observed on reference to the daily salus, that quo- tations for the samestock will advance one day and fall back the next, and fluctuate in this way from day to day. The Reading Railroad Company have funded the whole of its floating debt at par, and.the company is therefore, relieved entirely from all the embarrassments the existence of an unfunded debt usually creates.— There are no liabilities of the company falling due until 1880, and the income of the road will not only net enough to meet the payments then, but good dividends can inthe meantime be declared, should the board of directors deem it good policy to make them. Should the receipts of the remaining six months of the fiscal year increase at the rate realized during the past six, the gross income of the company for the year ending Nov. 30, 1847, will not fall much short of $2,300,000, being an increase of $350,000 on those of last year, equal to about eighteen per cent. ‘The receipts of the Little Miami Railroad Company for April, 1847, were $22,093 29 against $9,846 76 for the same month in 1846, showing an increase of $13,246 53 in the month this year. ‘The receipts from tolls on the cauals of this State for the wowk ending May 22d inclusive, this year aud last, were as annexed :— New Yorx State Cavars—' Neg ending May 22, isi Oswego... Totals... Previous receipts Totals eee eee BHI IIS $188,002 ‘The receipts this year were only for twenty-two days, while those for last year were for thirty-six days. The ex- cess of receipts this year, for fourteen days loss time, over those of last, was, on tho 22d inst., $40,007. There are groat complaints among the commercial classes of New Orleans, relative to the manner in which the government regulates it payments at that point. It appears that the Seerctary of the Treasury sends drafts drawn by the Treasurer of the United States on New York and Boston, in suns of one hundred thousand dollars each, to be negociatel in the New Orleans mar- ket, where they are disposed of at a discount of two and two and a half per cent. In addition to this ail pay- ments on the part of the goverament, are mado in bills on Washington, which are paid by drafts on New York. Considerable curiosity bas been excited in New Orleans tolearn the cause of the great scarcity of treasury notes in that section of the country, ‘They comimaid a premium at ull points, and the embarrascment and dificultios created by the use of drafts would be obviated by the appearance of these notes. The banks of New Oricans are overloaded with northern exchange, some of then having, it is represented, upwards of one million of dol- lars to their eredit in the northern cities, which they are unwilling to reulize by drawing at the present di Their unwillingness to increase the amount and their inubility to do #0, compels them to restrict their fucili- ties, and a great deal of embarrassment is produced in the moaey market of that city ‘There appears to be something wrong in the financial movements of the government, Ss long as it has funds at; command, they can place them at proper points upon much better terms than appears to have been submitted to. The loon recently made for $15,000,000 is to be paid asfast as the wants of the government nay require, and we do not see the policy of the government standing # shave of two and @ half per cet, when it can command the money at much more reasonable rates. New Or- leans is the principal point of expenditure of money to carry on the war, and the amount on deposit there to the credit, of the government is less than in either of the three great northern cities. The annexed comparative statement exhibits the amount of paper issucs and of specie on hand, at four pe- riods, showing also the position of these departments in each bank. It will be perceived that there has been a vory large increase in the amount of specie on hand, and a small increase in the amount of paper issues :— New Yorx City Bans, ipecie. Aug. 186. Nov 1016.

The paper issues of the country banks, in proportion to the amount of specie on hand, was as seventeen to one, while the paper issues of the city banks, in proportion to the amount of specie, was as one to one and a half. Our city banks derive no benefit from their circulation. It is confined principally to the city, and is returned upon them almost in full every day. ‘The issues of our country banks, and those of banks out of the State, enter largely into circulation in this city through the influence of the difference in value, com- pared with the issues of our city banks. The discount upon uncurrent money, actually gives these bills circu- lation to the exclusion of those of our local banks, The par redemption law would remedy this evil, and we havo no doubt it ultimately will be carried through the Legis- lature. 6s, '67 10735 L90ahs fending RR, 260 57 4, "67, 07 ing RR, 960 53 * Yon Trene noes, 6s, iif ne * rstuaen 7. 5000 do 0336 100 do 815 57) ‘ 1000 State 6's, of 61, 107 50 Canton Co, 360 36) 000 Alabama 5’s, 62 200 do 360 30; 2000 Ohio, b60 10136 50 do ong 3 10000 do, *50, or” 50 do. 83037 1000 Kentucky 6's, 102! 50 ops 37% 1000 do. 102% 7 Mohawk, 69: 5000 INingis Spl, 42) 50 Harlem, 9, 6000 Rig Mtge Bonds, 70 150 do’ 55% 5000 Reading Bonds, 723g 100 do bio 55; 4000 do 160 7233 50° do 55 5000 do TR 50 do bio 55, 9000 Indiana Bonds, 42°50 do. bl0 55! 4000 Iudiana Sterling, 42 50 Nor & Worcester, 50 15 shs Bk of America, 10313 250 do $30 50; 30 Manhattan Bank, | 913g 25 250 Farmers’ ‘rust, 3484 200 100 do a10 339 50 500 do 31%, 100 505 79 do MS 82 50 do 60 314° 16 n0 do. als 31s, 100 Pu “0 do blo 3443 75 200 Morris Canal, 20% 50 100 shs Morris Canal, 20" 100 50 lo 90 2034 300 100 Vicksburg, i 250 50 National Insurance, 30 50 200 Reading RR, = sl5_ 5734 150 b30 eat a8 8 mE, lo ot do sl5 57; Board. 50shs Farmers’ Loan, 34 100 do Eid do 34 100 do 34g do 34) So ReadingRR, 15.51 lo 50 do 563g 50 Long Island, 25hq 6 Paterson RR, 1S 50 do. 25), 250 Farmers?

Anybody who imagines that we are only engaged at this time in one war is mistaken, We have not ouly the war with Mexico, but the was between the National Intelligencer and the Union. In the Mexican war, the main articles employed are powder and shot—in the or- | ganic editorial war, the means are steam presses and pa- | per. In the Mexican war, a great deal ‘of blood is shed | —in this paper war, there is a corresponding shedding of | ink, and no bones Broken. ‘The Mexican war has dete- | riorated into the guorilla system, and Father Ritchio | has'this morning proclaimed the same system of bush fighting with “old Jo,” or, as the Congolese mandolin has it :— .“ Old Jo a kickin’ up behind and befo’, ‘And old Tom a kickin’ up behind old Jo,”’ And yet we do trust and believe that neither the war with Mexico nor this war of words between two bellicose political agitators, diverse, converse, and reverse in everything, will end in a dissolution of the Union, pro- vided always that a saving discretion be exercised In the settlement of the foreign war and the domestic war, ‘The fact is, it is hard to choose between the manner in rs i Mr. Mi .Adrand corner of Columbia igeetion of Mr, Austin Phillips, assisted by Mise Cloths, Jacovets and | prompt a fuil'aud complete | 3 street, 50,000 yards of English fast be sold by the pound; also, English Lou Cambri¢ Muslins, &c. &e , together wit stock of Dry Goods, bought recently at auction, and offered at | PETER DUFFY 486 Grand st. come: )» letters post-pair ill at all times meet with A.

A strapping negro, pamed Charles Walker, was arraigned onthe ebarge of commit- ting & rapo on an interesting little white girl, named Sa- rah Ellen Bond, about twelve years of age, The negro felzed her whilst in the cellar.of her mother’s house, and by threats of instant death, accomplished his purpose.

Although the evidence was of the most direct and pp ad character, the jury at 10 o'clock last night, had been out about seven hours, and were still unable to agree, But, as is usually the cage with Baltimore juries, the case was too plain for
