The Man- hester le are doing evils ari oun the depression alluded to, by adopt ng the short system, anda reduction of wages. At it there is not any prospect of immediate relief, at [est until, the money market is easier, and coudunce in commercial circles restored. The reports from the woollen districts of Yorkshire are more satisfactory; still the amount of business transacted is limited, and manufacturers are obliged to curtail the stocks which they baye on hand. The money market'tince our last. number has: not in the smallest degree improved. We have recapitulated in our leading artici the principal failures which have tinge ocourred.

The report so actively cirqulated, about ten days ago. that the Bank of France intended to reduce the rate of discount en eee at. proved as we anticipated, quite unfounded. The intimate: tween the London and Paris exchanges renders it im- possible to maintain fora long period a greatl; in the two places; and the 25,000,000 Ber ‘aux in Parisat 43¢ per cent., whilet the rate on good bills ishigher, has equally failed with the late measures: .d by our bank to relieve mercantile pressure.

Whilst these oauses are in active operation, it is. difficult to foresee a solution of the actual difficulties, The funds have experienced the most violent fluctuations. Our quota- tions of consols on the 4th inst. were—for account 85%, and for money 87%.

Mercantile confidence seems completely unhinged; and the rumors to which such an unfortuvate state of things gives rise, ageravate the existing emoarrassmenta,by casting doubt upon the stability of houses never before called in question. ‘Phe difftculty,attending the curtailing pro- duction by stopping the mills in the manufacturing dis- tricta, seems insuperable, and at present, the operatives, the manufacturers, the merchants, and the bankers, are quite perplexed respecting the measures which should be taken to relieve all classes of the community. ‘The cotton trade has beea in a very dull and gloom Position since the sailing of the Britannia on the 4t instant, owing, partly, to the stagnation of the trade, which has forced upon the spinners and manufac- turers s farther curtailment of the consumption, and partly to the more favorable accounts brough’, over by the Cambria, which gave moze cheering prospects os re- arda the growing crops in the United States.

Ont! arket dey ofthe 6th inst, prices still continued to recede, but towards the close of the week, both wheat and flour were in active request. This im- provement was further muintained on the market day of the 18ch inst., when wheat advanced about five shil- liege per quarter on the quotations of the 6th inst , and flour, for wh eh there was sn immense demand, bothin London and Liverpool, sdvanced 33 to 4 per barrel. The top quotation for the best description ef wheat is 628 per quarter. whilst fo Liverpool the best Western canal jour, which on the Ist inst. was quoted at 25s. and bare- ly fetched that price, now sells at from 28s to 30s per bar- Fel. Indian corn ulso, has been in more demand, and higher rates have been paid for it, and the corn market St thin moment appears firm; but as large supplies ere sill expected from abroad, and our own harvest is ad- mitt'datw'l hands to be an abundant one, it is very doubtfol whether further flactuations will not tak befure prices reach their naturel level. Considerable purcbases have been made in our market for Belgiom &ud Holland, in consequence of the diseased appearance of the potato crops in those countries; and the chases huve tended to strengthen our markets. Stete of commercial affairs, and of the corn tradi cially, renders it a matter of greut difficulty to fo corrret judginent of the future course of prices. At Mark Laue, both on the 15th and on the 17th, prices Were a littly higher. There was a limited supply of wheat, xnd the stocks of tho houses which have falied peng withheld trom the market, tended to produce a Wer tendency. Tho tenor of the advices from the United Stutes, by which it is ascertained that no great supplies cai come forward from that quarter, hes con: triouted to create a better feeling in the corn the present moment. ‘The demand for rice, both in the London and Liver- poo! markets, has been to a pretty fair extent during the fortnight ; but we cannot note any improvement in prices. Jn the beginning of the month, when reports ‘were in circulation rerpecting the potato rot. speculators entered the market and bought toa considerable extent; but as the supplies were tolerably large no advance could be obtained in the value of any description.

Tho great failure of the potato crop last year baving almost aunihilated the supply of swine in Ireland, it will be some time, even un- der the moet favorable ciroumstances. ere the supplies of bacon or pork from that country will reach its former extent; consequently we must be pre} to submit to high rates for these articles for a time longer ; in fact. thw rates now demanded cause buyers to act cautiously ‘Thw demand for alt sorts of American provisions is not #0 active we what we bad occasion to report in previous publications ‘Ihe better deseriptions of beef would find te ready market at our quotations, but tbe inferior qual tira move off slowly.

There hus certainly been much lees waste,and damage than in ordinary seasons ; aud c!though the quality of the wheat and barley may perhaps not be quite so fine as in some former years, we think there will belittle to complain of in that re. spect; whilst all we have yet heard of the yield loads ue to believe that the quantity grown, taking the white crops generally, will prove considerably over an average. On the other hand, # mach less breadth of potatoes has been grown than usual, and some doubt is still entertained whether the late crop may not prove a partial failure. — Beans, peas, aud turnips, which were in many localities planted as a substitute for potatoes, have suffered exten- sively in consequence of the dry weather experienced in June and July; and it may, ‘therefore, be questioned whether the total amount of food produced in the United Kingdom for man und beast is 6o abundant as to warrant us in expecting such extremely low prices as some parties calculated on. Tbe present panic has been as much caused by the difficulties in the money market as by au- perabundance; indeed ifthe harvest had not been brought forward by extraordinarily fine weather fully a fortnight carlier than appeared at one time probable, stocks of olé grain of home growth would have been completely ex- hausted before the new could have been ready for con- samption; and the fact that the ports where foreign corn is to be obtained (such as Liverpool, London, &o ) are daily visited by buyers from all parts of the kingdom, tends to confirm our opinion that old grain of howe growth is unusually scarce. At such a time as the present, when confidence is completely shaken, and every one looks at his neighbor with distrust, buyers are not iikely to purchase more of # commodity than they actually taken freely, was 1s | want for immediate use; still low prices may tempt those who are in a position to find cash to lay in a few weeks’ stock, and we are dis; to think that the value of wheat and flour has (at least for a time.) been at the lowest. At several of the leading provincial markets prices have already shown a tendency to ad- vaneo; and unless the farmers sypply the markets much more freely than they have hitherto done, a moderate rise on present rates insy be expected. At Liverpool, on Tuesday, au extensive businers was travsacied in foreign wheat and flour, both articles being taken freely by buyers from distant parts of the country A rise of @d. to 34. per 70 Lbs , was established on wheat, and weatern canal flour was ‘placed without difficulty at 243, Gd. to 25s. G1. per bbl, according to quality. Later in the week the demand increased, and on Friday wheat realized 4d. to 6d. por 70 ba. more than the pre- vious market duy; whilst the best brands offlour brought 278. per bbl. The tone of the advices from the leading towns in Yorkshire is decidedly firm; and though wheat was not quoted higher either at Leeds or Hull on Tuesday, the turn was against the purcbaser. At several of the markets in the agricultaral districts, depending wholly on the growers for supplies, wheat has advanced 2a. per qe; and at Birmingham, Gloucester, Bristol, and other pinces ia that part of che kiagdom, the ris» has been fully as great. ‘The improvement which has taken place in the trade hag, in our opinion, been caused siaply by the urgent wants of the millers and dealers; till now they have done all they could to depress prices, walting for a favor- abie opportunity to replenish their stocks. The time tor ‘aotrigeo appears at length to have arrived; and as the consumption of bread invariably Increases in pro- may be caleulated on. slight increase has taken place in tho arrivals of English wheat into London, 3,944 qrs, having been re- ceived up to this (Seturdsy) evening ; the greater part of this supply was, however, sold before it came to hand, the quantity brought forward by land-carriage ‘amples from the home counties having been very small since Monday, whilst the demand hes rather improved, the trade has assumed a firmer tone. ‘The few parcels exhibited on Wednesday on the Essex and Kent stands, were placed without difficulty at prices fully equal to those current in the beginning of the week, and on Fri- Jay zood qualities were taken at an Advance of fully Is per qt. We have again to report « large supply of wheat ‘rom abrond, 30,624 qrs. having eome to hand. Not- withstanding the extent of tho freeh importation and holders bave remained tolerably firm.

The arrivals from the other sido of the Atlantic bave been rather liberal, but the quantity aold bas exceeded that received; as, in addition to what has been taken for local consumption, some important purchases have been made by country buyers. The beat orands bave commanded 248 6d, and in some onees even 6d per bbl moro; really sweet, treth samples being com- paratively scarce, Inferior and sscondery sorts have sold at from 228 to 23s per bbl. ‘The maiting season has scarcely eommenced yet; and though the supply of English Barley bas not been by any means large, the quantity brought forward has proved amply sufficiont for the demand, and the tarn has been ta favor ofthe buyer. Foreign Barley has met mode- rate share of attention, but the low price of Indian Corn and other articles suitable for feeding has interfered good deal with the sale of grinding Barley, and to make wales of the latter it has been necessary to accept rates & trifle below those of Monday last. Tho transactions in Malt have been on quite a retail soale; and, in the absence of business of importance, quotations have remaine’ nominally unaltered. ‘The arrivals of oats ocastwise and from Ireland have been email, only 25 qra. having come to hand from our own coast, 254 qra. from Scotland, and 189 qrs. from Ireland; having, however, received 57,650 qra, from ond, the total supply for the week his excreded 54,- 000 qra, There has been less pressure in the oat market | than of late, and an opinion appears to be gaining ds little factors to obtain a on "se cur- renoy.

The grain crops are, on the other hand, highly spoken of not only in the countries named, but all over Europe. In the Bal- tio no business seems to have been done in corn, except for lecal cossumption; and quotations had, we are in- formed, become quite nomtnal at the prinoipal ports. Letters from Danaig, of the 4th of August, state that it was almost impossible to give an ides of the real value of wheat, there being hardly any stooka on the spot, and absolutely “no, demand Nomin r z, 30, a. Nominally, wheat was quot- 52s, rye 98s to 30a, and peas 3 juar- mm board. * cli ‘The advices from Koningabery are of a similar charac- ter; and beyond trifling purchase or two of fair high- mixed wheat by local speculators, at prices equal to 41s 3d to 468 94 per quarter, nothing had been done.

Livenroon C Excuanar, Friday, Sept. 17.— There is large arrival of American flour, wheat, and Indian corn since Tuesday. The country demand for the principal articles of trade ontinued without abatement. At to-day’s market a large business was transacted in barrelled flour, at an improvement of 6d. to 1s. per barrel on ‘Tuesday's prices.

The Subscribers | Safety Fund Banks would be taxed ‘upon their oapital, while the Free Banks would be taxed upon thelr clreu- | lation. The Free Banks have no capital, their securities leposited with the Comptroller, comprise their capital, «nd as their paper issues never can exceed theamount of these securities, the tax would in fact be upon their cir ulation. ‘The Safety Fund Banks have « nominal capi- tl, and their clrouwlation fuetuates from tim. to time, as circumstances require. Im the event of the amount of notes in circulation being larger than the capital the tex is not increased as it applies merely to the capital, where- asa Free Banker has no relief; he may hay thousand dollars’ worth of stocks in the bands of the Comptroller, #4 eecurity for bis circulation, and may not in fact have more than two thirds of; that amount actually out, but he has no relief from the taxon the whole amount of his deposit. There should certainly be some distinction between the Safety Fund and the Free Hanks on this point, so as to place the tex that it may ‘all equally upon both. As the bill stands above, it wili prove very onerous to the Free Banker, Stock Exchange. £41500 Trens no'es 6 GUS 38 shu Canton Co ae Es lo b ie 3000 Ohio bs, "60 joo” 109 do oo 4900 0) ion aN 5000 100 ‘ 0000) sew 77 0% 100 dg mite bonds §— 68S, 150 ul 1000 idg dolinr bds 71% 0% 1000 do 70 ue 2000 do mK ~ 90 20 do 00 71 87 she Maapecen Bk «95% 1200 100 Farmers’ bo oon 28! 100 do ET 2% Nor & Wor RK bio 160 do me b do Ww do ms do 10 Ohio Life & Tr “ o do 8) do a 60 do wy 1 Mort 1h 300 do 10) Caaton serip pyran (1 do. ) Onpton Co a 150 do tov do bw 32 Wilmington RR 0 1 76, hf om Hatem rah Wy 24 do New Stock Wxchange. $9000 Tr'y Notes cash 10ibg 25 she ngre Work " Osho Harlem KK bs 482) do bio do do by eo Ne auto Co , do ) 48 90 Farmers’ Loaw 60 434 0 do
