Pittanora. . . E OOOO Sunday, Sept, 19-6 P, M. has been a great deal of activity and excitement in the stock market during the past week, and there has been something of a revulsion in prices. Several opera- tors have exploded, and during the past day or two, the law clerks have been compromising and settling dif- The ferences. It was announced at the close of the market yesterday, thet some of the most ‘extensive bulls in Har- lem had gone by the board—the enormous differences having made @ cleansweep of their capitals, Any num- ber of lesser lights bave been extinguished, andthe street has been pretty well purged of a class of speculators which has for some time past kept the market in a con- tinual fever, Outside operators have suffered more from this class of operators, than from any miscaloulstions of their own, relative to tho state of the market and the course.of prices, and it would be agreat improvement to to the character of the street generally, if it was com- pletely clear of this incumbrance. Prices for most of the fancies have nearly reached their starting point. They bave nearly reached their proper level, and their real value is somewhere in the neighborhood of the current prices. Many of these stocks will be heavier at present prices than when they ‘were twenty and twenty-five per cent higher, There is, invariably, very little disposition exhibited to take hold of the faneies when prices range at the lowest points, but when they have advanced ten, fifteen and twenty per cent, under the influence of some movement purely speculative, the outsiders take hold of them with the qreatest avidity, and purchases are even made to great extent for investment. Nosooner does some fancy stock commence advanoing in the market price, than the most extravagant stories are freely circulated rela- tive to some sudden and unexpected increase in the value of the seourity, which must carry it up to par at ones ; and. as extraordinary as it msy appear, many have confidence in these reports, and involve themselves @-eply in the movement. Operators having so much oredulity, generally have very little else ; consequently, their speculations usually result in ruin. ‘The stock market during the past week, has boon in- fluenced by the advices have received from the seat of warand from Europe, This influence has not been in the aggregate favorable,as the accounts from Great Britniv have been sufficiently unfavorable, to counter- balance any greateffect arising from the prospect of an immediate poace with Mexico. It is new nearly three movths since the great reaction in the corn market of England commenced, since which failures have taken Place toan immense amount, and the greatest embar- vassments have been experienced in commercial eircles, ‘The losses on this ride of the Atlantic from the bank- ruptcy in Europe, have, without doubt, been exceedingly large, and bave fallen principally upon one class of merchants. As yet, we have heard of no suspension (with one exception,) of any importance, but we fear that many houses have been pretty thoroughly stripped of their resources, and remain mere shells, liable to be crushed at any moment. Tn the tece of these things, our money markets con- tinue perfectly easy Tbe banks, in spite of the doubt and suspicion, which must naturally be attached to many engaged in the corn trade, discount freely and lib- erally, and confidence appears to be as firmly estrblished asever, Should there be a number of heavy failures in this market, things would change very suddenly, and those sustaining themselves would be much embarrassed in their operations, by the restrictions which the banks wonld at onee place upon commercial credit. So long as the losses from failures on the other side do not go beyond our ability Lo bewr, there will be ne general derangement of the money market, or general distress among the com- mercial classes. We oan standa great many reverses; our profits on breadstuffs have, for the past two years, been Very large, and the Josses must ba large to wipe out this wide margin. Then, again, the tosses, whatever they mney be, will, without doubt, be very much distributed, falling pretty equally upon all sections of the country. ‘Tho commerciat operations of this country have, with in the past Sve years, been so free from speculations: eredits have been ro mach restricted, and we have had *o many local influences at work, tending to check any illegitimate expansion in any department of trade, that a most hualthy state of things has been preserved, the benefits of which we are now feeling. The speculative part of the movement in breadstuifs has been confined to the other sideof the Atiantic, The demand here has been perfectly legitimate, and prices have been regalated solely by the demand and supply. All attempts to get ‘Up & speculative demand for our market here, failed; but the effect intended for this side has been experieno- ed on the other. Our markets have been regulated by those of Europe; so faras this goes, the demand was healthy, as it came directly from the marts for consump- tion. Prices were mot, for a large portion of the season, inflated by any monopoly of speculators, but in co: quence of the supply being so much lees than the actual demand for consumption. The annexed table gives the quotations in this market for the principal stocks used for speculation, for each day of the past week, and at the close of the week previous: Quorations von THE PrixcrPat Sock: on Marker.

An express mail left Boston at 2 P. M., ‘and it will probably arrive before change hour. Unless it does there will be very little business transacted. So far ‘88 we are able to judge from the accounts received, of the character of the news, it .ppears much more favorable than that received by the Union. There have been many very important movements made in the financial circles of Great Britain, relative to the embarrassments in the money market, for the purpose of alleviating the com- mercial distress so generally experienced. What has been or will be the effect of these movements, we are as yet unable to tell, but we are in hopes that private ac- counts by this arrival will give us something deflaite rela- tive to this important matter. ‘The cotton and corn markets continue very much de- pressed, without any prospect of any immediate improve- ment.

Martin Van Buren—The Kearny and Fremont Contro- versy—Medical Officers of the Army and Navy— Charge to Naples It is rumored here that a strong effort is being made torally the friends of Mr. Wright to the support of Mr. Van Buren, at the Baltimore Convention. A very pro- minent member of the Senate, who was among Mr Wright's most zealous adherents, is ssid to have Intely Pronounced in favor of Mr. Van Buren in letter to a friend in New York. Should this statement prove true, that eminent Senator will be more tham ever “solitary and alone” in his support of a candidate for the next Presidency. The odium attached to the Van Buren par; ty was sufficient to cause the defeat, last fall, of Mr Wright, one of the ablest men in the country, and spart from his connection with that factien, certainly one of the most popular. It is quite true that his affinity with that party would have proved the only bar to his election to the Presidency, and when from Mr, Van Bu- ren would be subtracted all the qualities which rendered Mr. Wright so deservedly popuias, what would be left but the elements of even « more galling defeat than the democratic party sustained under his leadership im 1940, Would he command the vote of Pennsylvania, of New York, of Ohio, of Virginia? There ix no candidate in the ranks of the whigs who would not command the vote of any of those States in preferonce to Mr. Van Buren. Under such clreumstances, bis nomination by the demo- cratic party would be absurdly suicidal, The Kearny and Fremont controversy threatens to terminate ina bitter personal feud between the friends of the parties. It appears that Mr. Benton, as was generally anticipated, has interfered in the matter in his own person, a procedure which cannot fail to preju- dice the cause of Col, Fremont. The entire mieunder- standing originated in a scarcely unavoidable miscon- ception of orders, This misconception could not possi- bly have beeen cleared up in time to prevent the awk ward consequences which have resulted, because tho scene of its occurrence was some six months distant from the seat of government, Each party was gallant in action and prudent {u counell, aud no one who reads | OF the insurrection in Cal fornia, and its prompt e=tine- tion, can fuil to admire the admirable conduct of both. Unfortunately, concession did not once enter into the mind of either, and hence arose much of the mischief that hus supervened. The friends of both parties have shown & very censurable disposition to magnify thin trivial misunderstanding into @ bitter feud, and what should have been decided—if, indeed, it waa of sufficient consequence to call for a formal decision by court-martial, without interference, threatens to result in a discreditable brawl, in consequence of the ob- trusive and indiscreet zeal of quasi friends on both sides. Col. Fremont is of full age, and fully competent to guard his own reputation. It was, therefore, very ill-advieed in Mr. Benton, to throw on him the unneces- sary weight of bis protection. To an error of judgment every man is Mable, and except in such an crror, the whole country will long before the deotsion of the court martial have pronounced Col. Freemont free from biame, ‘The great mortality among the surgeons of the Galf fquadron, bears melancholy testimony to their porse- Yerance in the discharge of their duty, in the midst of disease and death. Medical officers, both in the army and navy, areas much exposed as any others, and yet they are vory inadequately paid. ‘Tho regulations of both services require the very highest qualifleations in candidates for medical appointments, and yet, for ten years after entering thi service they are paid a smaller stipend than many a druggist’s clerk, The candidate must be versed in every department of medicine and surgery, and yet he does not receive more than one-third of what is cufficient for his decunt maintenance. The salary of the pay department is about twice as large ae that of the medical department, notwithstanding that the services of the latter are much more valuable and important than those of the former. This inequality should be attended to. It is rumored that the President is about to appoint Mr. Robert Tyler chargé to Naples, to succeed Mr. Wim, H. Polk, lately appointed major of dragoons, There could not bom better appointment nor a fitter one. One of the last acts of Mr. Tyler's administration was the nomi- nation of Mr. Polk, and now that he has resigned, the appointment of Mr. Robert Tyler to succeed him would be an appropriate return of the courtesz, Mr. Tyler, with commendable delicacy, declined to secept any pointment from his father. Svch delicacy is as scarce as it is commendable, and merits proper requital. GALVIENSIS. Wasuixaton, Sept. 19, 1 All Sorte of Things. Ono hundred guns were fired by the U. 8. Artillery, Captain Mordecai, to-day, in honor ef the great fight- ing Wy the troops of Gen, Scott, under the walls of Mexico. We were out in the country during the sa- lute, and two farmers passing along the road, had it set- ted at once that it was the news of peace that hadjust come in. It would have been in bad taste to have cor- rected their mistake. They will find out before next week that it was not for peace, The list of the killed and wounded at Contreras and Churubusco, shows that Worth was “Where the iron hail most thickly showered.”* ‘We have now reason to expect tho news every morn- ing, of toe certainty of a treaty, or of the rejection of the terms of Mr. Trist, and the resumption of the war. We hear it intimated that the diffculties between Gem. Kearny and Col. Fremont, will probably be settled without the necessity of a court martial. We appro- hend that that will not be so easy, Cabinet Council to-day, They talked of sending down to-morrow morping @ special messenger to SF Scott, and also to Mr ‘Trist. We have not learned their final decision ;. but suppose that if no special messenger is sent, the papers will be deepatched te Mr. Dimond, at Vera Crus, with instructions for their transmission thence to the Mexican capital, From all that we learn, the President is sanguine of a peace, without further bloodshed, and of the line of 36 degrees from the Rio Grande westward to the ocean Of course, the Mexican constitution is inthe way even to the sale of the proposed territory to the United State or to apy other States ; but it fs expected that San’ Anna will find a way to get over that difficulty, to wit, th dium of the pein THREE MILLIONS. Wasninaron, Sept, 18, 1847. The Whitney Railroad Scheme ond Zadock Pratt. The lon. Zadock Pratt, while in Congress, was chair- man on Publio Buildings and Grounds, and so exten- sive were the improvements he suggested under this head, that if carried out, every dollar in the public trea- sury would bave been absorbed in decorations of the federal metropolis. Mr. Pratt, however, did good service Ho got new curtains and carpets to the White House— he got the shanty over Greenough’s statue taken down, and succeeded in various little things, and we regret that he did not also succeed in some of his larger schemes Mr. Pratt has returned home to his extensive tannery and banking operations at Pratisville, in York State, but still keeps the run of every great national scheme that may be on foot; and in this respect he shows the quiek- ness of a business man, and the patrioti«m of a good eitt- zen alive to the prosperity of the country, Mr, Pratt comes out in this morning's Intelligencer, in w long ereny, in which he takes strong ground againat the proposed Tehuantepec Canal, and advocates, aa = good son of York State should do, the construction of the continental railroad of Mr. Whitney.
