This change in these items, comprising the issuing depart- ment of the banks, makes a very material difference in the value of the currency, and places these institution’ in « weaker porition than they were at the close of the previous quarter. The principal drain of specie from the banks has been by the government, in settlement of balances due on deposit, and in payment of duties into the custom house, ‘Che demand for specie, so far, has been principally for payments into the independent treasury, which, on the 25th of October, contained $4,- 551.841, and it would be well if the demand was confined to that quarter; but there is every probability of a drain to some extent from abroad; shipments of specie to a large amount have already been made, and the prospects at present is in favor of more extensive exports. Reports from official sources, which we have from time to time published, show # very large importation of fo- reign merchandise, and comparatively very limited shipments of domestic products. If this state of things continues for any length of time, the balance of trade in our favor on last year’s business, will soon be wiped out, Itmust be borne in mind, that this balance is belog liquidated in three different ways—by large im- portations; by shipments of specie, and by remittances of excbange. This, in the face of limited exports, must rapidly reduce the amount due this country from abroad, ‘The manufacturers of Great Britain are mak- ing desperate efforts to turn the tide of precious metals towards England from this country; and to bring about such a desirable result, they are filling our markets with their fabrics, sales of which are forced at enormous sa- crifices, Our markets are used for the purpose of forcing off goods which are not marketable elsewhere, and for the purpose of realizing proceeds at a point more import- nt than any other in the world, at this moment. When it became known in England that large supplies of bread- stuifs would be required from abroad, and that large shipments of bullion would be required in payment, the financial and manufacturing classes of Great Britain came to the conclusion that it would be for their inter- ext to encourage an importation of grain, Ke. from the United States, rather than from any other quarter, as they would beable to get the specie back froma this country much quicker and much easier than from any other. They wisely foresaw that the importation ofan immense amount of apecie into this country, would open more extensive markets for (heir products and manufactures, and ore- ate a more active demand, at more ramunerating prices than has heretofore existed. They sppeartohavelearn- ed that we become good oustemers precisely in propor- tion to our resources; that the more we sell, the more we buy; that there {is not a disposition among the pro- ducing classes of this country to hoard, so generally ex- hibited in others; hence the wisdem of the conclusion to turn the tide of specie this way as much as possible. ‘The operation of this plan has already commenced—the current has just turned, and will rapidly increase in ve- locity and volume. The annexed statement exhibitsthe shiptnents of specie from this port for the month of Oc- tober, distinguishing the destination:— Suvaents or Srecte wom THE Pout or New Youn, Aa oe fe Steamer Sarah verpool, sovereigns Ship Duchess d’Orleans, Havre, five fran “Mex. dollars be Y * five francs . vot Mex. dollars “ Philadelphia, Marseilies, five frane piec “ Jowa, Havre, * ‘Mex. dollar Steamer Missouri, Havre, five francs Ship Havre, “ 15,640 3,781 5,000 “Garrick, Liverpool, Total. . $674,548 ‘The shipments yesterday, the Ist instant, amounted to $118,576, of which $99,300, in five franc pieces and Mexican dollars, went to Havre; $15,000, in Spanish dollars, to Sumatra; and $4,275, in five franc pieces, to Malaga. ‘The bulk of the above shipments was to France. At this rate, we shall soon lose a pretty handsome sum. In connection with this, the shipments to Mexico will swell the amount immensely. We have now a drain of specie from two sources, both of which take it out of the country. There is less prospect of what we send to Mexico coming back than that sent to Europe, and it should be looked upon in that light. In view of these facts and this state of things, it would be well for those engaged in commercial pursuits to pause and ponder: it would be well for them to ballast their vessels so that they may be prepared to ride safely through any storm. There is a laxity in the present system of doing business, which may answer very well in highly prosperous times, but which in a reverse will prove exceedingly disastrous. There is an extra- vagance of expenditure in private life, in this city, which must, uvless checked in its incipient stages, lead many rapidly into a state of bankruptcy.— The magnificent establishments recently brought into existence in the upper sections of the city, and the ex- penses attending such a mode of life, are beyond the means of men engaged in the uncertainties of trade and commeree, Men of large fortunes, retired from com- mercial pursuits, and consequently beyond tho risks and dangers of business, having settled incomes, can cut their coats according to their cloth; but where we find one ro situated in city like this, we find hundreds aping all the extravagance of milliionares, who daily toil from morning till night, in keeping their heads above water in the commercial world, ‘When we look round and see the rapid increase in re- sorts of fashionable circles, the building of opera houses, in which every family of any pretensions to aristocracy, think they must h: box, the construction of magni- ficent dwelling houses, and the competition existing among that class to outdo each other, we have our fears that the times of 1836 and 1837 are about being realised again. Every one engaged in trade knows too well that that but a fractional part of our commercial houses escape bankruptcy. There is so much compétiton in trade, 80 many losses, and such limited profits, such an anxiety to do a large business, without sufficient regard for its productivenees, that we fear hundreds, and we might say thousands, who occupy the splendid palaces in the upper part of the city, who patronize the opera, and give their weekly soirees, do so at the expense of their creditors. Evils of this kind produce their own remedy; an artificial state of society to this extent can- not continue in a city like this, where there are periodi- eal revulsions, The country at large is highly pros- perous, and the masses never were in a better condition; it is the corrupt spete which cause the difficulty; it is these foul places which generate so much disease in the mercantile body. It is only by eradicating them at once, before they become deep rooted, that we can pre- serve a healthy state of things. Stock Exchange. $23000 Treas Notes 101, 250 ahs Farmers?

The News from Mewico—The Policy of the Adminis- eration. No despatches have been received fromthe army in Mexico by the James L. Day, and ten days will probably elapse before we shall receive autheatic intelligence from General Scott's headquarters. ‘The British courier was to have left the capital yesterday, and the news he brings, if important, will doubtless reach here about the middle of next week. It can soarcely fail to be impor- tant from the posture of affairs at the last advices. The news that reached here yesterday , represents Pena y Pena as having refused to recognize, as associates with himself in power, the two men named by Santa Anns to act in that capacity. ‘This refusal will probably turn out to be based upon the absence of any precedent for the appointment, and not upon political motives or any hostile feeling to Herrera or Alcorta. The news will be important, as {t will probably be decisive as to whether the present government at Queretaro, desire peace or not, and if so, whether or not they are disposed to trea on reasonable terms. It is not, I think, to be ‘expected that any treaty has been made, but it is not at all im- probable that negotiations may have been resumed. The future course of the administration will depend, in no small measure, upon the information that will be furnished by General Scott as to the state of the coun- try and the prospect of making peace. The President naturally desires that his recommendation to Congress may be sustained by the views of the commanding gene- ral; and therefore until these views are spread before the Cabinet, no determination will be arrived at. Upon the facts now before that body, « resolution could very soon be adopted, which, although not unanimeus, would, nev- ertheless, embody the views of all the influential mem- bers ofthe administration, If the views now entertein- ed be not materially and even radically altered by the information to be received, the President will not recom- mend the adoption of a defensive line. It is not antici- pated that circumstances can arise that would render such a policy advisable; but should such a line even be adopted, the Sierra Madre will be that line, But it is not even remotely probable that such @ policy will be recommended by the President. There is no probability in the aumor that Santa Anna is about to leave Mexico, He will doubtless remain in the country while a hope remains ef bettering his for tunes. There is much said about the poverty of the Mexican people, and their inability to sustain levies of contribu tions, How does this appear? They aro more wealthy than before the war commenced. Our army officers have disbursed an immense amount of money in the country since the commencement of the war, and the people have been paid for every thing consumed. If, then, they were able to support the extravagant government which ruled over them before the war, when they were poorer than now, why should they not be able to meet moderate de- mands now, when there is a greater quantity of money in the country? Certainly, if Mexico could afford twelve millions, including the duties on ‘imports, for the sup- port of government before the war, she can now afford asmuch or more, GALVIENSIS, Wasninaron, Oct, 30, 1847. Mexico—The War—Peace at Hand. Mr. Buchanan stands fast by the anchor ofhope. He has never abandoned it. Repeated disappointments have not shaken his constancy. He was in that position from the first; he has maintained it through all the di- plomatic vicissitudes of the war, and he is still in that position. He wants peace—we all desire it. He desires the glory of closing the war, if so be that he can do it— he hopes yet to do it, and we hope, for the sake of the Union, of humanity, and of all the sweet fruits of peace, that his may be the honor of endorsing, in behalf of the American people, a treaty of boundaries and indemni- fications. Calm as the dawn of an autumnal Sabbath—serene as 4 millionaire retired to the country and the charms of pastoral associations, and happy as a lord, sits Mr. Bu- chanan in his cloister in the State Department, count- ing over the chanoes ofpeace, and arriving ever at the same conclusion. In the morning he resumes his old round of speculations, in the evening he returas home, having closed his; journey, as usual, at the same “half-way House of i plomatio rest.” A hopeful man is Mr. Buchanan. Tapulaes shake net his equanimity. He is as imperturbable as the Mexicans themselves. At times he may be staggered at their presumption and stupidity; but till he believes theyjare on the verge of an accommodation. ven now, with Gen. Scott in their capital, and the r spangled banner” floating in the morning sun over the national palace, that hot-house of thirty years of wasting revolution: yn now, with Mexican i hate atite climax, and Spanish obstinacy in its fullest development —even now, when the shadow of the Mexican govern- ment that ba: sted, is dispersed to the winds—even now, when tl adow of a government no longer re- mains, and the British miniate its uncertain in- structions of its resuscitation—Mr. Buchanan is hopeful of peace. th ‘hus reasons the Secretary of State, and this is the tenor of his last despatches. Let the Mexican govern- ment reorganise at Queretaro—let them see the hope- lessness of their condition, and they mi y propose to Gen. Scott the capadieney of resuming the functions of di- plomacy. lof Mr. Trist will startle them to reason; and they may even approximate to the teras proposed by our! ill-used commissioner. While there is jife in the gaunt, bloodless skeleton of the Mexican go- vernment, there is hope for them, and for us, and forme. Oh! most hopeful, Mr Buchanan; give us thy hand—the same good right hand that endorsed the parallel of forty nine, for thou art a man, and a Christian! War is not thy element—its effices are no: thine—with blood and broken bones, and burning towns, and bombardments destructive as the eruptions of Popocatepetl of old, thou hast nought to de. Peace is the ultimatum of diploma- cy, and the chief of our diplomatic bureau art thou.— ‘Thou hast ever uj thy face the light emblem of peace in thy white crav tenure of day hast thou relinquished it Proper is it as thy official oadge; aye, quite spropos ag,to thy personal illustration. beseech But bear with us in all kindliness; hear us, thee, our chosen amd reliable Paciticus, if we demur to the hope of « peace in the vall Chaleo, and his pre operations stand reduced to the interior occupancy, When the veterans of Arista were driven over the Rio Grande, there was hope of peace—when the garri- son of Ampudia evac d Montere ween the Ame- Hemline Magen were our expe tations ; when the strong hold of San Juan | Ulus gave way, we believed the war war ended; when the heights of Gordo were carri:) we thought the enemy powerless beyond recover o the victorious ten thousand of paused gates of Belen and San Como, we believed that it wor @ treaty at the threrbold of the Ala- meda; © hope, in the expectation, in the thought and ip the belief, we were bray) inted. Neither blows nor conciliation—neither the bayonet nor the clive branch; neither the py t Matamoras, nor the pause at Puebla—neither the armistice at Monterey, nor the armistice at the capital—neither Taylor nor neither Atocha, nor Trist, have availed us any- thing. Her armies are annihilated, her munitions destroyed, her strongboids captured, her boundaries flanked by # blockade—her government extinguished— her capital occupied by her enemies—her energies para- lyzed, and her leaders powerless and disgraced—Mexzico is still intractable! Is it notso, Mr. Buchanan? But how stands the case, admitting the resuscitation of the Mexican government at Queretaro! Are they not all sworn to perish. or to exterminate their enemies Sappoee the government is permitted to orgapine—to deliberate—a reasonable time for calm reflection. Ie there any prospect that lena y Pena, or Herrera, will propore the protocol which Santa Anna rejected ? Or if they do, oF either of them does, will not Paredes be enabled to displace such author ty, and anoul such over- tures in an immediate pronunciamento, backed by xy & rag. amoflin army marched into the city! Whore is Paredes ? He is not idle. Where ix Santa Anna, hia only formida- ble rival, Powerlecs, from the accounts received to-day— a fugitive, reduced to the ead extremity of fleeing his ne- tive land, after sacrificing every thing, and after efforte, repeated and almost superhuman, in mustering resources for her defence. The prospect, then, isythat Paredes will fall heir to the fortunes in the war of Sante Anns. Will Paredes propose the terms which Santa Anna re- jected’ Scarcely possible. Will @ threatened or actual descent upon Queretaro act as @ pursuasive to the Mexi- can Congress’ They will move to another city, And thus it promises to be, until a force of 100,000 men is sub- divided into garrisons surrounded a, uerillas. But suppose we resolve upon of progressive oceupation, and get it pad Ey blished, and pro- claim the late Republic territory of the United States? Wi!l ten years of such occupation reduce the people to submission, or exterminate them? Hardly sup- pore it does reduce them te terms—bow is the territory to be divided between the North and the South?
