M, There is nothing doing in the street.and no demand for stocks of any description. The sales this morning indicated a slight decline, partly owing to the small number of operators in attendance. The inactivity is also attributed to an anticipated scarcity of specie: The increased importations from Europe, especially from France, will have a tendency to draw a large por- tion of the specie paid for the new loan to the other side; and until this point is settled, and the usua, number of operators return from their country recrea- tions, nothing of consequence can transpire. The Salisbury Manufacturing Cowpany has made no dividend for the last six months. Advices from Manchaster to the 21st of July state that there had been an improved demand for goods for Italy.the Levant, and Mexico, and an increased de- mand from the continent for yarns, We also learn that there had been a large order fer a description o cheap shirtings, received from the United States, for shipment to the Chinese market, In alluding to thi order, the Manchester Guardian says :— “It is understood that a large order for this descrip- tion of cloth, intended for the China market, has been received here from the United States; the merchants of that country finding that the funds necessary for their investments of teas can be more advantageously provided by shipments of iugtizh than of American manufactures, which of late have not been remune’ tive. Indeed, it has been notorious, for gome ti that the sales of American domestics, sent to C and other markets, almost invariably left a loss; though the merchants might eventually be remunerated by the profit on the return cargo. English manufactures, however, or letters of credit enabling the merchants to draw on’ London, are likely to yield & more advantage. ous result; and’ we may expect the trade between China and the '/nited States to be carried on in a great measure by one Or other of those means,”? This will, no doubt, be interesting to our merchants engaged in the East India trade; but there is more truth in the remarks of the Manchester paper than may generally be supposed. We ship large quantities of domestic shirtings and sheetinss to China, but it is hardly to beexpected that our manufacturers can supply the whole of the demand for consumption in that section of the world. Whenever our manufac: tures are brought into competition with those of ioreign make of similar description, we invariably are snecessful; and itis only in the absence of our fabrics that those of England find sale. We, therefore, can easily account for the existence of the above order. Our manufacturers have had ful! employment, and have found markets for every piece of goods they could turn out. The annexed table exhibits the shipments from Boston for each of the past seven months, dis- tinguishing the destination of the exports for the month of July:— Exront or Corton Goons From tue Port or Boston.

Total since Januai me time last year, More than one half of the shipments in July went to the East Indies, We do not know whether China is included under this head or not, in the official returns, but presume not. If not, there were no shipments to China during the month, and those markets must have been poorly supplied with American cotton goods, the previous shipments having been limited.) leaving & better opening ‘or British fabrics. The exportation of cotton goods from Bosten, for the first seven months of 1843, compared with that for the same perlod in 1847, exhibits an increase of 5,980 bales and cases; equal to mere than twenty-five per cent. The character of the extract from the Manchester Guardian is caleula- ted to convey the impression that the Americans have abandoned the attempt to compete with British manu- factures in the Ghinese markets, and have been com- pelled to load their ships with British cotton goods, for disposal in Canton, for investment in teas for their re- turn voyage. If American cotton goods have not been profitable shipments to China for some time past, it has not been because British goods of similar descrip tions bave been afforded cheaper. We do not mean to assert that British cotton goods have not been sold within the past year in the markets of Canton, as well as those of the East Indies, lower than those of Ameri- can manufacture; but we do say, that ifsuch has been the care, there has been an immense loss upon them, and they have been sacrificed. Such competition as that we can soon dispose of, and a return of more prosperous times will place the manufactures of both eountries upon a more equal footing. We have no fears of the result of an active demand, and believe, that, under a healthy state ofthings, when the manu- facturers of both England and America hold for fair profits, the fabrics of our country will, so far as the supply goes, take the place of all others, Within the past year, we recollect reading an account in a Manchester paper of the closing of several mills previously employed in the manufac- ture of cotton goods similar to those manufactured in the United States, and the intention of the proprietors to put in machinery for the manufacture of a finer kind of goods. The cause of this ehange was at the time attributed entirely to the fact that they could not compete with the Americans in these fabrics. In all the finer descriptions of cotton manufacture, the English can compete successfully with us in foreign and even in our own markets. We have not made so much progress in the higher qualities of goods as in the lower: but we are rapidly improving in the upper branches, and must ere the lapse of many years occu- yy & very respectable position in the manufacturing world ‘A table has been published by the Belgian govern- ment, exhibiting the movement of Belgian commerce for the first five months of 1846, 1847, and 1848, which shows @ considerable increase of consumption in va- rious articles of imports, and particularly in those which indicate a prosperity of the people, which it is yartioularly gratifying to observe.

We allude particularly to the over-issue of | stock by the Schuylkill Bank of Philadelphia; an issue | which has been declared by the highest courts of | the State illegal. It will be seen by the above state- | ment that all but $40,500 of an over-issue of $318,500 | have been purchased by the Bank of Kentucky, outof | its earnings, without reducing its dividends below five percent perannum. Before the next semi-annual re- port makes its appearance, the whole of this im- mense over-issue will have been purchased, and the profits of the institution and branches wily hereafter be more fully divided among the | stockholders. The claim of this bank ‘against the Schuylkill Bank, will doubtless be ultimately realized. We see no way of the Schuylkill Bank avoiding the | payment, if its assets are sufficient. There is no pos- sibility of any decision in any of the courts of law or justice in Pennsylvania, being made inits favo we believe it is now only a matter of time, the points at issue heving been finally settled in favor of the Bank of Kentucky. There has been an improvement in the issuing de- | partment of this bank within the past six months, | the circulation having been reduced in that time $586,414, and the specie increased $9,131, which shows, as trifling as it is, that the drain of specie from the South and West, to meet the demand on the sea- board for shipment, has not reached this bank. The contraction in the ciroulation, without a correspond- ing reduction in the amount of specie, has materially strengthened these departments, and places the bank in a better position to meet any exigency grow- ing out of the depression in the money market. | There bas also been a slight decrease ia the | line of discounts, and an increase in the amount o/ | individual deposits. This is a feature equally favo- rable as that relating to the circulation, as it is ind | cative of a policy which, in times like these, is highly commendable. On the whole, therefore, the last re- port of this institution and branches is highly favor- able, and must meet the expectations and wishes of all those interested in or connected in any way with its movements. To the commercial classes dependen | upon it for facilities, its uniformity of movement must be particularly satisfactory.

The daily operations for the week closing on the Sd inst. were about 1500 bales,—the purchases were nearly entirely for export aided by a moderate | speculative demand, and up to the period of the arri- val of the steamer Americe on the 4th inst., prices had advanced on that week's business full three-vighths of 2 cent—at which date, however, it had commenced to show symptons of yielding;—the business of the pre- ceding day being quite small. As this steamer was telegrapbed early om Friday morning there was no dis- position shown to proceed in business until her news was fairly cn the market, holders not offering in- ducements by a more ample supply. and buyers feei- ing that they could well afford to wait—in which, the day was ent! ely lost, the sales boing quite small. The accounts by this steamer do not appear to have aided holders, ax on Saturday the sales did not exceed 600 bales, which were at previous rates; the market ap- pearing inactive, and buyers operating without spirit; and as there was an increase of samples out, the turn of prices may be said to have been in fayor of buyers. ‘The market yesterday was dormant and inactive—so much so, that the transactions were too inconsiderabie | to report upon, Holders ask old prices, and appear in- | different; but buyers do not appear.

The result of the election in Kentucky, to-day, is regarded by many as extremely doubt- ful ; but it is still reasonable to believe that, note withstancin ling of hostility to Mr. Crit tenden_ on the j art of Mr. Clay’s friends, the whig strength 1s still sufiicient in that State eta man hitherto so popular. ‘The proceedings of the Bufalo Conven looked to with much anxiety, as th be raade will doubtless decide the fate of the Pre- sidential election. It cannot be demied that this Separate organization must afleet the whi party more injurously than the democrats. If the nomt- vation tall on’ a democrat, that democrat will be to on are selection to Mr. Van Buren. If Mr. Van Buren be nominated, it willbe a further proof of the weakness of the whig p f 0 political organiza- tion re; sufficient strength to late from its ranke,, curious spectaele of furmsh an available candi There will be presented 1! the great whig party being leit wholly out of the canvass of 1843.

A proposition has been introduced by Mr. Ben- ton, to give the reporting of Congress to the (mon and Intelligence, at the rate of seven dollars and ahalf column. ‘This resolution is the result of a combination between these two establishinent, to share between them the profits arising from the farming out of the public reports. Neither est, lishment can command sufficient strength in Congress, to vet a monopoly of the reporting, and so, like bandits in search of plunder, too weak in- dividually to attack their prey, they jom forces to obtain success. This plin, advovated by Mr. Zenton, can have no other design than to give pelf to these party papers. Full reports of the Congressional proceedings will, on an average, extend over twenty-four columns a day, which, at #15 a column, amounts to $360 aday. Thus, it would cost the Senate— For the short session of 3 months days, at $60 per day + $28,080 From this sum deduct— Fer composition, at $1 50 per column... $5,516 Reporting at $800 per week. .......0000 0 8 + | BAI6 Clear profit... 0. $15,664 Counting eight months for the long session, the two party journals would thus make a clear profit of upwards of sixty-six thousand dollars every Congress, in the matter of reporting alone. Iti3 notorious that neither of those papers, which Mr. Benton proposes to benefit by this arrangement, can give good reports; one of them is fast totter- ing to its fall, and the other has been for a lon time to all appearance dead. Mr. Benton wou! make the government yield sustenance to one, and reanimate the other. © Against Doctor Houston, the independent reporter of the Senate, and against Wendell and Benthuyeen, the independent printers to Congress, the patrons of both the party presses have united in a small crusade; and, particularly in the case of the public printers, every engine of annoyance has been putin operation for the pur- pose of breaking them down. In this connection, would state that Mr. Niles’ plan was not to sub- vert the present system, butte improve it, by ex- tending it to the House—in fact, to organize a re- gular system of Congresstonal reports, which might be looked to in future times as a faithfal re- cord of the transactions of the national legisla- ture. GALVIENSIS. Wasuinaton, Aug. 7, 1548. The Senate—Col. Benton and Gen. Kearny —The Oregon Bull—The Republic of Sterra Madre~ Major Scantland, §c. There was a debate of an hour and a half to- day, in the Senate, on the Oregon bill. The amendment reported by Mr. Douglass (to the House bill), declaring that, inasmuch as the ter- ritory of Oregon lies above the Missouri compro- mise line of 36:30, therefore slavery is excluded, was, of course, the theme. This qualification of the proviso meets with small favor. Mr. Niles, of Connecticut, an extreme provise man, opposes it; Mr. Underwood, of Ky., a Missouri compromise man, opposes it; Mr. Mason, of Va.,. ditto, op poses it; Mr. Butler, of S.C., opposes it: and, to the extent of the developements of the day, M Douglass stands alone. What, then? Will any- thing be done? Perpend. Let us reflect a mo- ment. No, sir; the prospect 1s, that Oregon, Mi- nesota, New Mexico, California, and all, will be passed over to the Buflalo Convention and the next session of Congress. A resolution was adopted in the Senate, to-day, asking of the President to tell all he knows about this projected “ Butialo Hunt,” south of the Rio Grande, and to tell, also, whether he has adopted any idea of suppressing it. It is inevitable, that Mexico must soon fall under the government of the United States. She cannot matatain a govern- ment, and will come on, of herself, in good season. she cannot help it. We cannot help it; but we protest, in the face of a solemn treaty, against the piratical invasion proposed. We believe the Pre- sident will promptly disavow aay knowledge or connivance in this marauding expedition. There is nothing so essential to good character as a de- cent behaviour—let us be decent with Mexico. This “ Bufialo Hunt” lacks even the recommenda- tion of courage. No ceurege is required in the enterprise, Mexicois defenceless ; she ean’t resis She may be taken pos: 1 of, and approp: ated, by @ thousand spiri Anglo Saxons; but we should preter not to steal the doublet of a crippled and prostrate loafer on the wayside— we should say there would be but little glory in a buflalo hunt, where the bufizloes lie ham-stringed on the ground; and but little merit in est iblishing a republie in @ neighbor's territory, merely for the seizure of the irrigated corn patches on the borders of the streains, and the appropriation of such Stray cattle and horses as may fall within the scope of the expedition. If we cannot carry out the treaty in stopping the Comanches, the Sifons, and the Aropahoes, in this business, we should prefer that it be left to these roving scoundrels of i deserts of Texas, New Mexico, Chihuahua and Durango. We cannot conscienciously sanction the cutting of Mexican throats, and the appropriation of Mexi- can roasting ear and red pepper patches, without color of law, The American constitution, as we understand it, sanctions no marauding spree in the disguise of republican{propagandism. lence, we have no faith in the projected buffalo hunt. ' As we have mentioned heretofore, a bill has re- cently passed Congress, giving Major Scantland, of the 14th regiment, constituted of ‘Tennessee vo- lunteers, an allowance of thirty dollars @ month, He served on both lines, and fought in the heavy battles of the valley of Mexico. At Chapultepec, an escopet ball struck him in the right e over the roof of his mouth, and came out at the back of his neck, on the opposite side, in an ob- lique direction downwards, grasing his brain and the arteries in its course. He was thrown out among the dead men ; but his’soldiers, in sortan, the pile, drew his body away. for the heart s kept up its pulsations. The wound was probed and dressed; but for three days he scarcely breath- ed. And now, a wreck, with his hearing and his sight partially destroyed, yet still alive, Con. gress grants to Major Scantland thirty dollars a month, and, a few days after, votes some thousands of dollars pin money to the employées of the House. This man hasa family in Tennes- ser, and wasin happy circumstances. Now, after fighting through the war like a Spartan, he comes home the ghost of a man, and Congress votes him thirty dollars a month. Oh! what a shame! whet ashame’! . Col. Benton took up five hours to-day, in execu- tive session of the Senate, in his fifth instalment in opposition to Gen. Kearny’s brevet promotion. The Senate, we understand, intend to sit him through to-morrow. There never was a more de- voted friend, there never was a more implacable enemy, than Old Bullion. .\fter all, we suppose Kearny will be contirmed. Pe Doctor.
