CITY TRADE REPORT. ‘The Mechanics’ Bank has declared 4 semi-annual Wepxespay, Oct. 18—6 P. M. dividend of four per cent. and an extra dividend of five per cent out of the surplus. The receipts of the Harlem Ra’lroad Company for the first fiftecm days in October, this year, were $14,. 752 58, against $13,421 67 for the same period last year, showing an increase o f $1,830 91, equal to ten perct. The tax to be levied this year, in this city, is $1 07 80-100 upon the hundred dollars. Last yearit ‘was $1 05 36-100. The quantity of flour, wheat, corn, and barley, left at tide-water during the 2d week in October, in the years 1847 and 1848, was as follows:— Recerets or Propucr at Tipe Warten.

The gubernatorial contest in Pennsylvania has just closed; and it is probable that Johnson, the whig can-, didate, has been elected by a small majority. There contest has differed much from the last held for the same purpose, in Pennsylvania; and the result of the Presidential election next month may be directly op- posite to that just realized. There will then be dif- cart®d on. Very important local influences have been brought to bear upon the State election; and the party most interested in the result appear to have suc- ceeded in obtaining power. ‘When Governor Shunk was elected, it was not gene- rally known that his opinions relative to banking re- strictions were so ultra; that he was so bitterly op_ posed to any increase of banking capital, or even to the re chartering of those banks the charters of which were about expiring. His messages to thg legis- lature soon defined his position; and the bank party found an obstacle in its way it little dreamed of. Numerous applications have been made at every sersion of the Legislature since for new charters, for increase of capital under old charters, and for re- charters for institutions in operation but, thus far, without succei The number of applicants for new charters became so great, and the number ofold char- ters about expiring was increasing so rapidly, that a party in every State isa very strong one, and when combined for any particular purpose, is all powerful- ‘We have hada taste of itin this State; and such is our recollection of its movements, that we have no desire to see another arise from the ashes of the old. It has beem pretty effectually put down hi nd if every other State inthe Union would follow our ex- ample, adopt the systems which are in successful ope- ration in this State, they would soon destroy the mo. nopolies which now exist under the me of corporations, and effectually put down all such parties, The old Safety Fund Banking party of this was the greatest political curse ever inflicted upon any sovereign State in the Union, The people w York were ridden over rough shod, by the leaders of that party; and, for atime, the State ‘was ruled as thoroughly by them aa they ruled one of their safety fund banks. A similar party existed in Pennsylvania previous to the downfall of the old United States Bank; the general explosion st that time re; stricted its power, but it is again making its appoar- ance, and must be checked in manner similar to that which has proved so successful in this State. At the olose of the year 1847, there were fifty-two banks in active operation in Pennsylvania, having an aggregate capital of nearly eighteen millions of dollars. Independent of theee, there were defunct banksin that State in a state of liquidation, representing nominally a capital of about fifty millions of dollars, All of these exploded banks are anxious to resume business again under their old charters, some of which have twenty years or more to ran. Independent of these, half « dozen banks in nearly every county are about being applied for, and the present banking capital of | the State is likely to be largely increased. There is at Jeast an increase of forty millions of bank- ing capital about being applied for in Pennsylva- nia, an amount more than double that already in ex- istenoe, It fs propored to increase the banking capita upon the old system, by the establishment of banks with incorporated charters, under certain restrictions, and with certain privileges. It would not suit these financiers to have the monopoly removed ; they wish to shut out all who do not belong to their cl ques, who, unless independent of them, have no political influence, and have no privileges. It isthe very charters that pro- tect them im their swindling operations ; and under that cloak they have for time past, and wish for the future, to carry on this financiering in the same mys- terious manne The open, clear, plain, straight-for- | ward general banking law of this State would not suit | the views of these finanolers; and they will. doubtless, oppose any such innovation upon their rights. If the | business was thrown open by the adoption of a general Jaw, the object these cliques have in view would fall to | the ground, The old safety-fund banking system is rapidly going out of existence in this State; Ohio has abolished the monopoly system; Illinois is about establishing some new banking system, and the general banking law of this State will probably be the basis of a plan which will be submitted to the people, and, if approved by a direct vote, adopted. Every State having a large funded debt, should bank upon it, and open the doors by a general law for every one, and any ono having capital, who wishes to commence banking busin There would then be no bank party, no banking influence used at elections, no lobbying in the halls of legists. tion, no-fictitions banks with fictitious capitals. The public debt of Pennsylvania amounts to about forty millions of dollars, at the par value, Its market value is about thirty-five millions of dollars, and it should not be taken above that rate as security for banking purpores, as @ proper margin for depreciation is necessary for the protection of the bill holder. The debt, even at this valuation, is large enough for a banking capital for that State for many years to come; and the market could not be relieved more effectually cf this immense amount of stock pressing upon it, than by absorbing it in banking capital, and making it the basis of a paper currency, It is estimated that full four hundred millions of dollars have been lost by the people of this country, within the past twenty years, by lank explosions, in the sacrifice of capital and depre- ciation of bills—while, ro far as the State stock | banking law is not quite P ot being sufficient margin for depre- ciation im the securities, they being takon at their par vaiue. With a little modification in this particular, it would be the best rystem ever adopted. The legis: lature of Poaseyivente will, at the sppronching seasion, be beret with bank cormorants, and the only way to dispose of all the applicants at one swoop, is to pass a general banking Iaw, and let those who wish form themselves tuto companies under its provisions wire pulling. all the bribery which bas heretofore mark- ed the all the be brought to bear for or against either party, and dispose of those institutions, the charters of which are about expiring by limitation, when their existence closes un small sales of ordinary lots were made at a trifle under ra including considerable no change in Southern brands.

To-night, the whigs of this meridian make » glorious noise, and have a tremendous rejctoing for what they call the signal triumph of whig priveiples, in the Key- stone State, im the election of Jobrston over Long- streth, and the probable result in Ohto.

Butler would, and that the vote of South Carolina would create the categery tending to such denouement of the Presiden- tial faroe enacted in 1848. Remember what I write to vou; free soilers, democrats, and whigs will, none of them, triumph in such an end of the play. If old Zack should succeed, the whigs are doomed to 8 disap which they suffered from Tyler in 1840, In tha first place, you may be assured that Rough and Ready will select his own cabinet. Crittenden, Jefferson Davis, Major Bliss, Reverdy Johnson, W. C.

It is net pro- posed by them to yield up the privilege of the joint pavigation of the Columbia river, given away by the Oregon armistice of 1846. My opinion is, that Uncle Sam will decline the purchase, and stand‘on bis “re- served rights? Mr. Canning told Mr. Pinckney, twenty years ago, that it is all folly for us and Great Britain to quarrel about her possessions on this conti- nent, when everybody knows that they will come to usin a natural way,in due season,by virtue ot * mani- fest destiny.”” ‘There are other topics of trouble, occasioned by the confured, bungling diplomacy of our rulers in past times; but, with the protection and aid of Divine Pro- vidence, we may hope that our country will surmount all difficulties, and go on unimpeded in her career of prosperity and honor. FELIX. Wasurneton, Oct. 17, 1848, The Elections—Whig and Democratic Rejorcings tn Honor of Pennsylvania and Ohwo—Almost a Fight—The Barnburners—Mr. Corcoran, §¢. When Mr. Morse first made known the applica- sion of electricity for the transmission of news with a rapidity never before dreamed of, the dix tinguished professor was hailed as the discoverer of an agent which would create a new epoch 12 the world’s history. Unfortunately, however, for mankind, no blessing can be attained without some counteracting influence, and tiie telegraph is not exempt from thts rule. Its principal fault is the inaccuracy which almost always attends the reports: consequent upon the hurried manner in which they are made up. At no period has this been more apparent than during the last eight or ten days. The contra- dictory reports which are hourly received of election returnr, have worked people upto a state of excitement bordering upon tever heat. “he whigs and democrats have alternately been raised to the seventh heaven or depressed to the lowest depths. So things coaxed on till Sunday evening, when the whigs could no lon contain themselves, and accordingly issued handbills announcing a grand torob-light procession, and salute of ‘one hundred guns,” for the following night, in honor of the © Pennsylvania victory.” —Imme- diately upon there handbills being dispiayed on the enue. the Jackeon Hall Democratic Association held | @ caucus, notwithstanding the sanctity of the day. and resolved to call & meeting at the same time as their whig friends, and fire * two hundred guns in honor of Ohio and Pennsylvania.” Here there was honor suf- ficient tor Pennsylvania at all events, and lots of fan was anticipated. At precisely twenty minutes to six o'clock, yesterday evening, the whigs fired the first of their hundred guns, and shortly thereafter the democratic thunder also commenced pealing, the differ- ent societies began to assemble, and the democratic latform was illuminated. There were two or threo m ransparencies exhibited, which were duly criticised. One representing two joined hands, with the words “the Union must be preserved,” exelted agood desl of curiosity to know what it meant. At last a lucky idea struck a spectator,‘ Oh,” said he,“ it means that d—d Union newspaper; it has injured the demooratic party enough already, | should think ” This elucida- tion was received with roars of laughter. Mr. B. B. French was appointed chairman of the meeting and had just cleared his throat, being the premonitory to thanking the auditory for the honor, when the western Rough and Ready clubs, with music playing and ban- ners flying, marched past the meeting. on thelr way to all, to meet the balance of the whig proces- sion. All at once the democratic band struck up vigorously. and for a short time there was agtraggle to drown “Rally Whigs” with Yankee Doodl uring the midst of this 6 pron and one of the missiles struck « portrait of General Taylor which was being carried high in mid air. Im an instant the whig cortegé wheeled] round? and thowed fight. For a time volleys of stoner, and curses both loud and deep were hurled back and forth. The democrats, however, were evidently in the minority, and believing in the truth of the adage that “discretion is the better part of valor,” they ceased to parley, and permitted the whigs to go on their way bigaesy l Mr. French then addressed the ting, and his friends to permit the whigs to rejoice as much as hey pleased over triumphs which did not exist, and victories which never were and never would be ‘There was no great display of oratory during the ev ing, the speakers being residents of the city, as the meeting was got upin such a hurry as to reader it impossible to engage any “‘stars."’ Several telegraphic derpatcher were read, which were delightfully contra- dictory. First we were told that Johnaton’s majority was very small; then that Lon cstreth was elected; and finally, that the result was very doubtfal. The des- | that the official returns could alone decide the matter. | General Taylor was abused, personally, publicly, po- litically, and every other way ; victor y was prophesied, and some time atter midnight every one went home fully convinced that General Cass would be the next President. The Taylor procession, accompanied by two bands of music, anda great number of transoe repcies and flags, madea splendid appearance After marching through the principal streets, it returaed to the City Hall Square, where the different clubs sepa- rated. “Upon the whole, we think both the democrats and whigs made rather premature displays of their Joy. It looks very much like hollowing before they are out of the woods, Lu patience est amere; mais le fruit eu est dour, Among the caricatures displayed in Shillington’s corridor, is one representing General Cass as suger. intending the decapitation of a number of political cflenders.
