It is uaderstood that the immediate cause of this re-netion was a considerable sale of stock, which one of the Liverpool banks had obtsined on loan from the Bank of England. The precise nature of this opera- tion has n°t transpired, but the presumption is that the Bank of England will have stipulated for tue return of the stock at some future period, and that awhile they have obtained some other description of securities ‘The object of the Liverpool Bank is easily explained vis : to turn the stock into bank notes, which would en- able them to meet the local pressure.

Now it is said that the bank will is#ue 25 mil- lions of francs of these new notes, in the first days of November, and it will subscribe at the bankers’s who will bid for the French loan, for the same sum of 25 mil- lions.

There is nothing in the present position of the grain trade likely to lead to any important variation in Prices; the high value of money, and the impaired state of British credit, may be expected to act at once as s check to an advance, and » bar to an important fall With the rate of interest between seven and nine per gent , and the impossibility of negotiating any but the beat peper, speculation in corn or any other article of merchandise is out of the question, and no ene will buy more of a commodity than is absolutely necessary for pressing wants; hence any rise of consequence in qaota- tions could only occur if the supply should fall short of the quantity wanted for immediate consumption, which is not as regards grain, having still good stocks of for granary, and but slight inroads having been made {fn the FO On the other end, wa are disposed to @ present want of cenfidence as an seheteal’ pubra against large importations from abroad; for it is soaroely to be presumed that fo- reign merchants will consign to the English mar- ket in the present position of our monetary affairs. During this and of the succeeding montn. whilst farmers are engaged with wheat sowing, the deliveries from the growers may perhaps barely keep pace with the demand ; but a2 the millers appear determined not to hold stock, we scarcely expect this to prove the oase.— And our opinion is, that the fluctuation in the price of wheat will not exceed s few abillings per qr., up or (Cy Jorsome weeks to come; whether, however, present iiterwill be supported after seed time, and when it Helibave become necessary to provide funds to meet i¢ntand other expenses coming due at Christmas, may leqaestioned.

Mancuesten, Oct. 16 —The shipping trade continues depressed, and py both in yarn and cloth, are very ivreguiar and unquotable. Orders are held by some of the agency houses to a considerable extent, which could uo be executed favorably enough, bat uncertainty in the rates of discount for paper, added to the want of confi- dence which results from the failures on every hand, makes commercial men of every class careful how they enter into engagements Spinners and manufac- turers are for the same reason contracting the rate of production, whilst mills are every week being added to the list of those which have stopped altogether. Many of the emailer houses decline to do business at all, ex- cept for cash. More indifference is manifested respect- ing the threatened turn gut of the operatives en masse than the recollection of a similar event in 1842 would seom to warrant, for it can hardly be expected that large bodies of men turned loose upon our streets, whose {1 provident habits in a general way will have left the: without a week’s provision beforehand, will wander about day by day and week by week, sensible of the dismay and intimidation which their presence in such numbers must create, without scenes of disorder The day for the cessation of labor is not finally determined upon, but the Stockport and Ashton oj tives contemplate so eurly a date as the 2ist inst.

Bixminauam, Oot. 16-—Hardware—It is too soon after quarter-day for any alteration to have taken place in the state of trade here; with the exception of a few branches, however, there is a good deal of depression, although of late the orders from America and elsewhere have not been inconsiderable. An article which appears in the Times of to-day. referring to the prosperous con- dition of commercial concerns in this town and the dis- trict, has given rise to an almost universal feeling of in- dignation, that any public writer should have dared to treat a subject of so much importance with ridicule, and of surprise, that one could have been found to betray 80 wuch of ignorance. ‘The prosperous condition of the iron trade of the district has been mistaken for the pros- perity of, the general manufacturing interest of the towny and the idea in the mind of the writer seems to have been that the one followed the other as a matter of course. pba however, can be wider of the mark, or more contrary the fact. Week after week in this journal, for months past, we have reported the depressed stata of trade here, and have also pointed out how seri- ously [agp pro was the high price of iron to certain branches of our manufactures. Further, under this head, only a week or two back, it was pointed out that the system under which our vast trades are carred onr-n- dered heavy casualties less probable than in Lancashize and other parts ofthe country. To this cause alone may be attributed our escape thus far, rather than to that extraordinary and isolated prosperity which the Times writer in his ignorance of facts would make his readers believe exists. There are rumors to-day of }the embarrassments of a large merchant's honge whos? ei gegementa have been, we believe, chiefly with the West lodia trade, their liabilities are not stated. and in the absence of further information on the subject, we ab- tain from enteriaginto particulars. It is teared, how- ever, if the report referred to turn out to be well found ed, that it may develop other insolvencies hereabouts.— Chis afternoon, at four o’clock, the American letters were delivered, but the character of their intelligence. or the effect they will produce on mercantile inte- reste here, was not known at the time this was written. Their contents were looked for with painfui interest; aud it sugurs poorly for post office manage- ment,that at such « time the letters brought bya steam- et which reached Liverpool at 12 p m. on Priday,should not have been despatched so as to reach this town at an rarlier hour than that above named.

Gorton, a large com- when received, of no immediate avail for meeting ac- cepted engagements. Under such circumstances, it is | no wonder that commercial houses, even of mere than | ordinary prudenee and fair means, should suffer much | inconventence and apprehension. All persons who | have been induced to place their names on_pa- per, no matter how guardedly, have to mevt their engagements under difficulties which could hardly have been foreseen. No doubt one of the great causes | of this narrowed facility and great embarrassment, | ia the hoarding of cash beyond the daily necessities, for meeting all possible emergencies, to the amount «f many millions, over and above the customary requirements of | business. All institutions, and nearly all commercial houses, have more or leas adopting a proceeding of this kind. Want of confidence and general distrust in the financial position of the country, must ever bring about a precautionary mode of laying by for protection Itis in the nature of things, and it would be difficult, if not impoasible,to point out a feasible remedy, There can be no doubt, however, that were this vast amount of cash drawn from ita hiding places, it would in iteelfsuf- | floe to give immediate easement, and perhaps a sufll- | cient remedy for that extensive embarrassment existing ‘at this time. The article of cotton is scaioely worth three millions; whereas the stock has often been double that value, and sometimes threefold. It, therefore, can- not be alleged that our great staple is ‘usurplug above ita share of the aggregate capital of the country. Still | we are suffering depression ; and low as prices were quoted last Friday, we must reduce them a little more | to-day, say }¢ on all the middling sorts of American, and ‘an inclination downwards in all kinds. 3900 Ameriean have been taken on speculation, and 1160 American aud 130 Surat for export.

The American steamship Washington, Captain Hewitt, from Southampton, has been at sea near- ly fourteen days, and is about due. The heavy north-west gales we have experienced during the past two days have no doubt somewhat impeded her progress; but as she made her outward trip in quicxer time than the Britannia, it is our im- pression that she will make her voyage home compare as favorably with the Caledonia’s. The Washington will bring five days later in- telligence from England, and her arrival is anx- iously looked for. We are prepared to see ano- ther long list of failures, and gloomy accounts of the revulsion; but as every day brings the bottom nearer and nearer, we are under the impression that we shall see something in our advices from the other side, by this mer orfthe next, giving some hopes of a mitigation of the evils weighing so heavily upon the commercial community of Great Britain. Cause and Effect. In the midst of the great commercial crisis which is at this moment shaking the foundations of English credit till they totter again with fear- ful threatening, it is curious to notice the efforts of the different poli ng in England to account for the causes of such wide spreading calamity. It is not our intention to enter upon the task of feeling the pulse of this bigand un- wieldy patient, and of pronouncing our judgment upon the nature of hie disease, or giving a pre- scription for his cure. We can only lonk at the giant in the violent throes and convulsions of his agony, shake our heads, and say, ‘“‘we pity you, and are very sorry for you” The disease under which the patient is suffering, we believe to be very complicated, of very long standing, and of a very hopeless character, chiefly, how- ever, from the obstinacy of the patient and his utter repugnance to taking the proper remedies The chief symptoms of the disease, we notice, are the following. There is an unnatural plethora and fullness of blood in some of the smaller ex- tremities; while a general atrophy and tabes seem to waste away and destroy the great trunk or body of the patient. The head, and some of the smaller viscera, are much swelled and gorged with blood, while the more vital parts are sadly deficient in proper supply and nourishment.— Thus, in our own private opinion, the disease consists in an unequal distribution of the vital and nourishing principle throughout the whole bedy; some parts, few in number, have too much, and are rendered unnaturally turgid and dis- eased, while other parts receive little if any sup- ply, and sink into a deadly atony and atrophy. Such, we say, is our private opinion—but the ob- stinacy of the pstient is such, that though we are confident our advice might cure him, we shall not press it upon him. As it is, however, we fear that under his present advisers and physicians, te patient, if he is not destroyed, is certain of becoming much worse. We shall only notice here the opinion of one of the sapient doctors who are attempting to patch up the invalid ; he is called the “‘ Times,” and is among the most dogmatic, pragmatic, and pedan- tic, of all the many quacks who take the patient’s case under their especial care and keeping. The opinion pronounced by the ‘ Times,” as published in our paper of yesterday, was the fol- lowing:— That the ruin of the country is ex- clusively attributable to the inordinate appetite of the railroad companies to consume capital.” Here we would point out, in the very statement and terms of the opinion, a gross blunder and absurdity. ‘“ Toconsume capital!” Could any idea be more ridiculous? Does not every body know that these works distribute capital, and do not consume it? Taking this as granted, as being the fact, then the opinion of the Times, properly worded, will read thus:—that ‘the ruin of the country is exclusively attribut- able to the tendency of the railroad com- panies to distribute capital.” Now, when the opinion of this dogmatic doctor is thus brought into proper and intelligible language, its absurdity and ignorant empiricism be- come manifest. For, as we stated at the first, we believe the truth to be that the patient fs dy- | ing from the want of a greaterand more equable distribution of nourishing capital; and here comes the Times, and says’ that itis this very distribution of capital which is the cau e of the disease! We think the absurdity and folly of the opinion ia at once self-evident What hopes, we would ask, are to be entertained for the sick and suffering patient, when its best accredited doctors are so blinded as to believe, or profess to believe, that the action which alone can cure the disease, is the cause of the disease? We would advise the patient (but that we know our advice will not be well received) to trust no longer to such advisers asthe Times, but to send over to us here in America, to see our healthy and vi- gorous condition,and to learn the fact—the unde- niable fact—that it proceeds in the operation of proximate causes, from the abundant, copious and equable distribution of capital throughout all the branches. all the vessels, all the parte, great and small, of the whole bedy politic. Let this distribution cease among us—let monopoly ‘ggregate wealth in the hands of the few—let primogeniture do the same—then, in a short time, we should be discovered to be in the very same suffering, languishing and agonising con- dition as our poor brother and friend on the other side of the water. Betrevve anp Brackwetu’s Istanp Hospr- rats —The ordinance lately passed by the Com- mon Council, and approved by the Mayor, in re- ference to the future arra gements of the above- mentioned hospitals, is one of considerable in- terest, not only to the city at large, but also to the medical profession, whose just claims in the management of these institutions have at last been recogn One excellent feature in the appointments is, that politics will have nothing to do with them, and professional capacity alone will be the test for admission. We here give a list of the appointments to be filled, and the sa laries to be paid. The amount mentioned op- posite the various offices is the entire compen- sation, there being no further emoluments, per- quisites, or fees of any kind whatev is is right, as under the old regime at Bellevue, there were quite too many fees and perquisites, amounting eometimes to more than the salary of the office.

They consist of the consulting physicians and surgeons, and visiti and surgeons, who, with the resident physicians (salaried offi- cers) are to be appointed by the Common Coun- cil. The assistant physicians and apothecaries (silaried) are to be appointed by the resident, | visiting, and consulting physicians and surgeons, WhO constitute thé medical board of the hosp’ tals; and a satisfactory examinatlon must be passed before this board, previous to the assist» ant physician being allowed to take his station. * We have no doubt that under this new ar- rangement things will be conducted much more satisfactorily than they lately have been at Bellevue; and as some of the best medical men of the city are among the applicants for the tuations of visiting physicians and surgeons, every thibg that medical science is capable of, will doubtless be done for the numerous patients who crowd these institutions. . In order to avoid any unpleasantness, as regards the distribution of these offices, would it not be well to adopt the French mode of electing hospi- tal surgeons and physicians, viz: by concours? Could that plan be adopted, it would, beyond a doubt, be the fairest one, and, moreover, give 4 chance to every one who may choose to try for the office. Velpeau, Jules Cloquet, Jobert, and in- | deed all of the most eminent French surgeons of the present day, owe their positions to the ad- vantages gained by them in the public concours for hospital stations. Who knowsbut what such a plan carried out in New York, might not also bring to light some equally inteliigent and splen- did American surgeons? At all events it ought to be tried. Tue WasHinaton—OUTWARD PassaGes OF THE Sreamers.—We have received a number of let- ters from passengers who went out in the Wash- ing, bearing high testimony to her sea-worthi- ness and capabilities. It will be observed by ex- tracts from a few of these letters, that the altera- tions made upon her previous to her voyage, have, as was anticipated, proved effectual, ren- dering her, according to the opinions of persons of experience, the easiest and best sea boat run- ming. Her passage, when compared with the Britannia’s and the French steamer’s,shows a de- cided superiority in speed, as well as in the most essential qualities of a first class ship. The ter- rible eas:erly gale which, it will be remembered done so much damage to the shipping on the 26th of September, overtook the Washington, and, it appears, accompanied her across the Atlantic The French steamer New York, which left New York on the 15th of September, arrived at Cherbourg on the 14th October, in nineteen days passage. The Cunard steamer Britannia left Boston on the Ist of October, and arrived at Liverpool on the 16th inst. in fifteen days. ‘The American steamer Washington left New York late in the afternoon of the 23d Septe uber, reached Southampton on the 8th of October, in fifteen days. The difference in the distance be- tween the Liverpool and Southampton route, is about three hundred miles. — . The French steamer Union, which sailed from this city on the 30th September, had not arrived out when the Catedonia left. Accounts from Havre are to the 17th, thus giving her at leasi seventeen days :— The following extracts are but a specimen of a number which came to hand by the Caledonia. One is from a ladyr “The ship is suverior in every point. We took the wind in our teeth at Sandy Hook. and kept it for nine successive days, with a ten-knot breeze all the while. and at the expiration of that time a succession of (es from the same quarter came on, which lasted till we were within a day of Southampton. ‘he ship isthe best sea boat in the world, as I believe, standing upright in all winds an¢ weather.” “ ‘The voyage was much more pleasant than I expected, although we had a severe gale all the way; but never did &@ versel perform its duties more than the ‘Washington; but owing to the head all the way across, We @ much longer passage across than was expected.” “T have the pleasure to advise you of our safe arrival in the Washington. on the morning of the 9th, after pleasant and delightful aanage, considering we had co: trary winds all the time. Neither —— or myself w = << sick at all, and the Washington isso fine a sea boat ant 80 smooth, that I would wait a month to ge in her.” These remarks will show which of the four steamers made the best time. The Washington will come out with a good list of passengers. Her agents in England have sold all the berths allotted to them. Tur Sreamsuir Patmerro, from this city, ar- rived at New Orleans on the 28th ult., in a short and pleasant passage. ‘Theatrical and Musical, Tar Paux Tueatne—Tne Orera.—The performances of Friday evening were repeated last night to a good house, with the addition of O Patria’? and“ Di Tant, Palpiti,” in all which Madame Bishop #ang and acted with peculiar grace and spirit.

Whar Becomes or tHe O11. t— Within the last few weeks, several of our wards have been almost in total darkno-e, for the want of thore brilliant luminaries called corporation lamps, being visible. We especially oall at- tention to tho first, second, and sixth wards. Op Thurs- day night last, a majority of these lamps were out before 12 o’clock, cuusing the streets to be as dark as pitch. We noticed Leonard street. in the sixth ward, run- ning from Broadway, particularly dark, and ‘many other streets equally the same. the lamps baving gone to rert.as well as the inhabitants. However, a glimmer might be oceasionslly seen to issue from one of those luminaries, which resembled a Will o’ the Wisp, seen through the inverted end of a te- lescope The fact is, our streets ought all to be lighted with gas, instead of the miserable system of bad oil end negligent lamplighters. The up-town streets are almost shifted their daily fitted up with gas from appropriations made by the €ommon Council, yet the down town streets, whic ougt® to reoeive the first attention, are most shameful- ly nglected, through which we muy attribute murders, hi ay robberies, and street rowdyisma, which occur maigly through ba:ly lighted streets. We do sincerely hope that the authorities will direct the lamps to be properly trimmed,for until the gas is adopted itis incum- bent on them to are that the lamplighters do their duty. Furious Daivinc, &c —We observe that the omni- buses are again on the “move,” i e that the drivers, many of them. would seem determined to again com- mence their old practice of blocking up the crosswalks, and also driving more rapidly through our streets than the law auth vrises. We would again direct the attention of the police to these werthies. who have oft and nels been warned by the press of the illegelity of their dan- gerous and annoying practice: Boat Ursrr, axp Surrossy Loss or Lirg.—A man re- siding in the Eighth ward, who follows the vocation of « grappler. while standing ‘on one of the piers near the foot of Thirteenth street, discovered something floating down the middle of the river; and on proceeding to 1t, ascertained that it was a new canal boat of the frst class, bottom upwards, with a hole near the bows, made as it is believed by being run into by one of the North river steamers. ‘The finder,with considerable difficulty, flaally succeeded in tewing the boat to the foot of Charlton Strout, where i stil lies Keel upwards, subjoct to the ac- tion of the Coroner, before whom the vesse! has been there being no wreck masters in the New York. Thisis probably the first the kiud that bas been brought up before a rr of this c'ty to dispose of. The boat is supposed laden with Western produce. She was either sapsised in the blow on Thursday night or run into and upset by s large craft or steamer, and it is much to be feared that the occurrence has been attended with losy of life, which fact will probably be known on putting the boat to rights to day.
