M. ‘There was no material ali+ration in the stock market to-day. At the first board, Treasury Notes fell off ¢ per cent; Reading Railroad, 14; Illinois 6's advanced 3 per cent; Pennsylvania 5's %; Norwich and Worcester, X. Farmers’ Loan, Canton, Long Island and Harlem Rail- road, closed at prices curreat yesterday. ‘The transac- tions were only to a moderate extent. At the second board, Treasury Notes declined }{ per cent; Harlem, 4; Reading, +; Long Island, 1¢; and Far- mera’ Loan, \. Itis reported in the street that the Caledonia and Washinton will take out a large amount o/ specie, some say to the extent of half a million of dollars. These shipments of specie must ha very favorable influence on the other side, and do us more good upon its receipt in London, than inthe vaults of our banks. If it tends to a restoration of confidence, it will be a good movement, particularly as we can spare a couple of mil- lions very easily. A failure has been announced in Boston, and two in Philadelphia, ‘The suspension in Boston was an old and extensive yobbing house, which has epjoyed unlimited credit, but which never recovered from the losses of the last revulsion, The two suspensions in Philadelphia were commission houses, involving a large amount Neither of these concerns were in any way connected with houses in Europe, and the causes of their bank- ruptey are purely of alocal eharacter. We fear this is but the beginning of the end; we fear that there are more concerns, at prereut in the enjoyment of unlimited credit, which have for a long time been brukrupts, and must, ere long, end in an explosion, The business of the past year or two has been productive, and all debts contracted within that time have bern pretty promptly Hquidated; but the profits have not been sufficient to make good the old losses, and the general derangement of credits bas taken away the only support that sustain- ed these concerns. As 4 general thing, new houses, those which have commenced business within the past two or three years, are the most substantial; they have not such a burden of old debts weighing upon them, and can, therefore, sustain themselves better in the midst of a revulsion. Before the opening of another spring busi- ness, we fear there will be times that will try the strength of overy house involved to any extent in the commercial movements of the day, There has recently been a heavy fall in the price of Fast Boston stock, The prinoipal operators in this stock are in Boston, andthe quantity held here is limited, The decline has been from twenty-two per cent to fifteen, and there is every probability of a further de- cline, as speculators have control of the market, andcan do pretty much asthey please with prices. There is no doubt but that the stock is worth full as much as it is selling for, as an investment; but as it may go lower, it would be well for the outsiders to wait alittle longer. A land dividend of two hundred thousand dollars has been declared, subject to an assessment of two thousand dol- lars for expenses in improving streets, kc. This is equal to ten dollars per share in land, on the twenty thousand shares held by the stockholders. The land dividend scrip will be issued on the first of December next, in favor of stockholders on the 20th November, and the public sale of the lots will tuke place on the first of May next, It is stated that a tunnel can be built across the harbor to supply East Boston with Long Pond water, for the sum of one hundred thousand dollars, Dividends have beon declared by the annexed banks, as follows: —Columbia’Bridge and Bank, 3 per cent; Pitts- burgh Bauk; 34 do; Exchange Bank, Pittsburgh, 33 do; Merchants’ and Manufacturers Bank, Pittsburgh, 4 do; Chambersburg Bank, 3 do; Chambersburg Insurance Company, 340; Chester County Bank, $4 per share— Doylestown Bank, 4 per cent: Farmers’? Bank, Bucks County, 3 do; Middletown Bank, 4 do; Dauphin De- posite Bank, 5 do; Delaware County Bank, 4 do; Smyrna Bank, Delaware, 3 do; Yardleyville (Del.) Bridge Com- pany, 334 do. Several years since, tho legislature of this State grant- ed acharter to a company, authorising the construction of a railroad from the village of Rome to the vil- lage of Watertown, and from thence to the river 8t. Lawrence, or Lake Ontario, or both, at such points aa the company might select. Nothing has been done with this charter, the capital stock never having been filled; and the people of that important section of the country have been deprived of proper facilities for getting to the great markets of the country. The Bos- ton people have seen the importance of the trade which @ railroad would draw from thir section of country, and have, in toe Ogdensburgh road,extended a line to secure it. The friends of the Rome and Cape Vincent railr: ad have waked up, and efforts are being made to fill the capitel stock of the company, to ensure the construction of the road as carly as practicable. The central coun- ties of the State have a railroad and canal running through them; the southern tier of counties will soon have the Erie railroad; the eastern counties will have the New York, Harlem and Albany road as an outlet; and @ portion of the northeastern counties will re the Ogdensburg road, leaving the counties on the eastern side of Luke O«tario, and near the mouth ofthe St. Lewrence river, deficient in modes of commanication with the sea board. The Ogdensburgh railroad is in the hands of Boston capitaity, whose object is to divert all the trade to their city, From Ogdensburgh to Boston it is 363 miles, by this raircad, When it goes into operation, it will, in consequence of its being a winter as well a¢ a aummer route, diaw to Boston s great share of the trady of Ca nada West, and the counties in this State at the easter- lyend of Lake Ontarjg, especially Jefferson county, which, wo are told, with even a slight improvement in the method of getting to market, would be decidedly the mort productive of our fifty: nine counties. So obtiging are oar eastern friends in these railroad matters, that a party is somehow springing up in Jeffer- son county for & plank road from Watertown to Ogdens- burgh, and the abandonment of the railro d trom Cape Vincent to Rome, This party say, “if we aré to be left alone to make a railroad out in a south- erly direction to Rome, and cannot raise the funds, why not divert the money already sub- soribed, ample for,the purpose, to making a plank road from Watertown to Ogdensburgh, and other roads of the same description, concentrating on Water- town!” We confess there is reason to suppose that the business men and ownere of real estate in Watertown aod other villages in the central and northerly parts of Jefferson and Lewis counties, would be easily led into a measure of this kind, They would argue that although the ¢ sosit of manufactures and produce, by railroad to Rome, with the eholce of going to New York aad Bor- ton, would be more advantegeous to the whole country yct, if Uney cannot, at home and abroad, raise the means —ir (hey must take up with a plank road—it would be better to run north than south. Ogdensburgh, hay- ing lees commercial advantages than Rome, would be less liable to compete with the local trade of Jefferson county, than the latter place, 1e distance from Kingston—the old capital town of Upper Conada—to New York, by the way of railroad from Cape Vincent to Rome, is one hundred and ten miles lees than to Boston by the way of Ogdensburgh . yet perpetual communication with Boston would be apt to diag ade that way. A very slight advantage in the mode of getting to and from market, would soon lead tae laterior to conform to the dictates of interest, howrver contrary to inclination, grown out of previous established habits, We think the Canadiane, and the inhabitants of the Biack River country, should persevere for a while longer for a railroad to Rome, as it certainly is the ouly natural direction to thelr old place of trade, and affords wt least am equal chance, after the Harlem and Albany road is finished. to come to this city, or go to Boston. ‘The following ciroular shows the kinds and quantities Of the supplies of tobacco required by the French go- vernment ;— Deranraent or TonaccomForetax Tonacco Dealers whe may intend disposing of foreign tobacco for supplying the royal manufacture. are informed that their sealed proposals will be adjudicated upon by the Minirter of Finance, on Tuesday, the 28th day of Deo 1847. ws follows : 1.

The closing of the Hudson river will create considerable enquiry why a railroad communication be- tween this city and Albany is not finished, and it will be a difficult question to answer.
