the demand has reached its utmost contrac tion. When the worst been realized, any change must be for the better ; and we believe that such is the present 1 of things. The future is, therefore, full of hope, and we must avail ourselves of any im- provement, to make up the losses of the past two years. There are 60 many, and such large holders of every species of produce, who have held so long and amidst #0 much depreciation in value, that we feara mode- rate improvement in prices will bring upon the market an immenre quantity st every variety of merchandise, and a complete glut be realized. ‘This is frequently the case atter.such along depression, and a reaction is almost invariably the result. Such a policy should, by all means, be avoided, if possible; but we fear thatit is imporsible to regulate the movements of speculators now, any more than when the excitement has reached & higher point. The anxiety is to realize All tay that as soon as prices cover cost and charges, they will realize; and when ail wish to realize, prices eapnot continue to advance. It is, however, possible that money may become sufficiently abundant before prices for produce reach realizing points, that it may be easier to hold, and the anxiety to get rid of stooks may not be so great as we anticipate. In that event the recovery will be more healthy, and more rapid. The supply of produce, and staple articles generally, upon the market, will be more regulated by the de- mand, and prices will be more steadily sustained. The following table shows the quantity of some of the principal articles of produce left at tide-water, from the commencement ot navigation to the 3lst of July, inclusive, during the years 1846, (107 days.) 1847, (92 days,) and 1848, (92 days) :— .

The contraation in the circulation of $2,829,001, without any diminution in the amount of specie on hand, isa favorable feature and one which we cannot too highly commend. These departments are in a healthier condition than they were last November, and it oxhibits a determination on the part of the banks gene- rally to place themselves in a position to meet any emergency. Since last week the amount of specie on hand has increased $29,012, while the cir- culation has decreased nearly two and a half millions of doliars. This contraction has been produced pro- bably by the apprehension experienced relative to the exportation of the precious metals, as the ship- ments which have been going on for the past six months, were of a character calculated to alarm all connected with financial and commercial affairs in this country. [twas not so much from the amount whieh had, up to the close of June, been shipped, as from the mystery that existed relative to the cause and probable extent of the exportation. At that time nearly a million of dollars were going abroad every week, and no one pretended to know when the out- ward current would cease, or how long the drain would continue. The movement was almost entirely artificial and unnatural, and consequently created much alarm among the banks of this city. Thus far the specie shipments have had a mate- rial influence upon the supply in the possession of the banks of this State; the reduction since the exporta- tion commeneed, up to the 24th of June, haying been but $667,500. This ie a very extraordinary circum- stance, when we take into consideration the fact that the shipments of epecie in that period, from this port, amounted to more than seven millions of dollars, It cannot be denied, but that a portion of this amount was drawn trom the banks of this city; but it has been nearly made good again by drafts upon the South and and West, A much larger portion of the speeie ship- ped within the past eight months from this port, has been drawn directly from immigrants, than is general- ly imagined. The amount of specie which these peo- ple have brought into the country, has, latterly, beon large, mnch larger than usual, and they have suppliod the principal specie brokers in the street with such coins us were most in demand for shipment. We have never rceelyed any oficial account of this specie com- ing into the country—but every guilder, every franc thet goes out is reported. On account of the immense quantity of specie brought into the country by immi- rant, a eemparative statement of tho imports and exports of the precious metals, from custom houre returns, does give a fair exhibit of the amount of foreign coin remaining in our hands of extracted from us, The banks appear to be little benefited by a large importation or by a large exportation, The receipts go more into goneral circulation, and the shipments are drawn more from sources of supply little known inthe financial world, than realized many years ago, We have no means of ascertaining, with any degree of correctness, the amount of gold and silver coin in circulation, (inolu- ding that hoarded up by individuala;) but is is our im- pression that it is more than double what it was ton or twelve years ago, At that time, the banks of this country had an iinmense circulation, and paper money was exceedingly abundant.’ Specie was very scarcey and shinplastors supplied the place of sma'l change, Now the circulation of the banks is comparatively limited, and gold and silver coins, of every description are plenty enough. The currency has materially im- proved, and under the operations of the existing finan- cial polley ef the government, every year will increase its vaine, until it finally settles down upon a pure spe- cle bests, The adoption of the independent treasury +ystem has done more to improve the currency—to in crease the cirenlation of gold and silver—to increase the coinage of American gold—to restrict the specula- “ons of banks in every section of the country—to check speculations, and to keep within proper limits individual eredits—thon any public or private measure ever perfected within the history of the government, it is impossible to tell what would have beon the re, rvit of this or that measure, had it been adopted. We not pretend to say the countfy might not for « time have, apparently, been more prosperous than it hes within the past eighteen months, had the inde not ee PST SU ET pendent treasury act not been xistente; do say that the country has, by that act. been pre- | served from those sudden and ruinous fluctuations which, heretofore, have been s0 frequent. If we have not for a brief period been eo prosperous—if specula- tion has not been so active, and prices so much in- flated—the other extreme has not been experienced; but a healthy, sound state of things have been pre- served in credits, in extent of transactions, and in all the elements of commerce. We have been prepared, by the conservative influence of that act, to receive the shock of the revulsions and revolutions which commenced in Europe, and they have been compara. tively harmless in their effect. Had there been no in- | dependent treasury, we should have been struck by | y" the squall with all sails set, and, without doubt, have been completely dismasced. As it is, we lost only a | few Fpars, | CITY TRADE REPORT. Satunpay, August 5-0 P, M. ‘The flour market continued firm at the late advance, | with steady &: chiefly for home use.

Our market is now completely over- stooked, and sales are effected with great difficulty. ‘The table of exports, as we mentioned in our last. shows a steady increase, Theexcess in rum is more than equivalent to the falling off in molasses.

The executive organ of this morning eontains enarticle denying that the editor has received any letter from Mr. Cass, pledging himself to veto the Wilmot proviso. The article particularly refers to a communication in the New York Herald, re- presenting that such a letter had been received by the editor of the Union. Although not the author of the communication, having been aware that Mr. Caes has never been guilty of the indiscretion of corresponding ¢onfi- dentially with the editor of the Union, stil] I deem it advisable to give the history of the affair, in or- der to show that the communication in the Herald was not wholly that groundless surmise the editor of the Union would lead the public to believe. Several articles have lately appeared in the Union, giving out mysteiiously that there was a certainty that Mr Cass would, if elected President, veto the Wilmot proviso, if submitted to him by Congress in any measure. So plain was the inte- rence’ that the editor had received some special intimation from Mr. Cass of such an intention, that the correspondents of half a dozen newspa- the existence of such a letter. This was not all. Several of Mr. Cass’s northern friends addressed a letter to the editor, calling upon him for infor- mation. The tenor of his reply Lam. not authorised to state, but the result was the publication, in the Union of this morning, of the article to which I have adverted, 5 Now, it 1s difficult to understand why the editor of the Union should give out and pretend, in lan- guage so plain as to impose not only on the corres- Peete of the press, but on the northera members of Congress, that he had received a letter from Mr. Cass, of the import I have indicated, when the fac: turns out to be, as he has been compelled to ac- knowledge, that he has received no such commu- Nication. The imputation against Mr. Cass, of be- ing so indiscreet as to correspond confidentially with the editor of the Union, was a grievous one; and it is easy to understand why the triends of the democratic candidate for the presidency should feel anxious to relieve him of the onus of such a charge, independently of their unwillingness to rmit the statement of his intention to veto the ilmot proviso to go to the North, uncontradict- ed. The affected indignation of the organ at the presumption of the Herald correspondent, in draw- ing the unavoidable inference to be deduced from its own language, is amusin; But it is not more amusing, than the language employed by the organ in depicting the scenes on the floor of Congress. A day or two since i( re- presented Mr. Clayton, of Delaware, (one of the most peaceable gentlemen in the Senate,) as hav- ing “floored Mr. Badger 1n the most genteel man- ner.” How very naughty in Mr. Clayton! GALVIENSIS. Wasuineton, Aug. 5, 1848. General Cass—The Wilmot Proviso—His Opinion Thereon—Mr. Ritchie’s Retraxit, or Back-out— Official Organ Tactirs—A Little Scrap of Secret History—“ Wheel about, dnd twn about, and jump, just so !--Col. Richard M. Johnson—His Opinion of the Herald. The Umon of this morning notices a telegraphic statement, and a letter from Washington, pub- lished in the New York Herald, to the eflect that “Mr. Ritchie has a letter from Gen. Cass, in which he states, that if elected to the Presidency, he will veto the Wilmot proviso, or any equivalent to it, should it pass Congress.” 1am not the cor- respondent who communicated this intelligence, and I trust that the gentleman who did will not consider me as voluntecring in relation to business which concerns him. My object 1s merely to de- tail a little bit of history. by On the Ist inst , an article appeared in the Union stating that ‘“ General Taylor avoids any answer on the Wilmot proviso. General Cass has, bravely and frankly, defined his position in the Nicholson letter.. He will veto the Wilmot proviso. We are almost eertain that Gen. Taylor will not.” It will be perceived that Mr. Ritchie made a po- sitive assertion with regard to Gen. Cass, and a qualified one, * almost certain,” when speaking of Gen. Taylor on the subject of the Wilmot proviso. Nothing is said about receiving a letter from Gen. Cass, but there was room for inference, in the words employed, ** he will veto the Wilmot pro- viso,” that the editor spoke by authority. When this article appeared, certain friends of Gen, Cass, whose names I know, were indignant, for they were well aware thatif thisarticle should ‘0 to the free States, the democratic candidate tor the Presidency would be dropped like a hot potato, by thousands of freemen in the North; so they immediately took measures, orally and in writing, to make Mr. Ritchie back out—to say someth which would undo the mischief'which he had Perpetiated. nt 5 Of this I was informed last night, by one who knew all about the private movements ; “ and,” said my friend, “old Ritchie has promised, and willback out.” Sure enough, in his paper of this morning he says— “It is due to the public to state that we have received no such letter ; nor hasanysuch letter been exhibited tous. We have received no letter, despatch or mes- sage from Gen. Cass, sin left Washington; nor have we addressed a single one to him. We have soon no letter that he has writtem to any other person; nor have we hear@ of any such letter. We understand, indeed, that Gen. Cass has not written a political let- ter since his acceptance of the Baltimore nomination, We hear from private sources, that, when interrogated upon the Wilmot proviso, he gives one uniform answer— that he adheres to the sentiments of his letter to Nicholson, and the resolutions of the Baltimore Con- vention, It seems to us that no one who has read his letter can doubt his position. Unlike Gen. Taylor, it was not necessary for him to write to us, or to any one else, explaining his views upon a question which he has so clearly defined. He bas never skulked or dodged this, or any other measure; hut we protest against any inferences we may draw from private let- ters, or the statement in such letters themselves, being taken as any new declarations from the General him. self, especially ag he has said, in his letter of accept ance, that, it ‘clores his professions of political fuit ‘The editor has “ received no letter, despat or message, from General Cass, since he lett Wash- ingten,” nor has he ‘addressed a single one to him.” fle has “seen no letter that he has written to any other person,” nor has he “heard of any such letter.” But will, dare Mr. Ritchie repeat, “Te wili veto the Wilmot proviso?” The shift— the Nicholson letter—upon whieh Mr. Ritchie re- hes, does not, cannot, warrant the inference that General Cass will “veto the Wilm:t proviso ;” any, ‘Sone who has read huis letter can doubt his pesition.” These frends of General C. whom | have alluded, would not stand b Nitebie’s interpretation; they would not look upoa him as the Daniel to interpret the handwriting upon the wall; and hence he to head his editorial article of this jmorning, “ A Correction’ rel Cass says “ he adheres to the sentim letter :” but does he say in it that he wi eto the Wilmot proviso 1” His eapeetal friends from the free States, m Congress, deny any sach inference. t3 of that Asa gentleman said the other day, the Nicholsou letter coctrine is a kind of *purgatory’—a state of betw a halting place, And Mr. Rutehie it should know, if he 1s not too old to leara, that he cannot dragoon and drill the democrane party in the Union as easily as he did a certain portion of itun the Old Dominion. ‘The old warrioy, Colonel Je ii on busmess.
