ter, Spencer, and Speer, concurred, Judge Carpenter, Schenok and Porter dissented, " L FoR Sepuction.— Nancy E. Knott,ve, Charles Lester Northrup.—Mr. Hillis opened the cause to the | jury. He stated that the action was brought by Mrs. ott © widow lady, against the defendant, for the se- duction ef her daughter. This daughter was the only one of the family who made it her home with the mother. She was under the age of twenty years, and | ‘worked with her moiver in the family of Mr. Wym of De Witt. The defendant in this case commenced attentions to the daughter in May, 1848 and were ‘such in all reapects as to be regarded of an honorable character. He continued these visits regularly, every two weeks, until the following October. The next time she saw him was on the 25th of November tol- flowing, when she met him at bis mother’s. On that evening-he was alone with Ler at his mother's resi- dence, and on the a> de Sek ee. eek Ao Mr. Wy- man’s, which was ome le was in her compan; on coveral occasions after this; two days in oa ber; the next time he saw her was in the last of Ja- muary. In December, she developed the fact to him that she was in the family way. In January the fact ‘was again communicated to him. On the thi-d Sunday in March he agein visited ber; and in the latter part of April he came to the houre of Mr. Wyman, and pre- sented her with a bible, and in June he again visited her, and advised with her in reference to her situation, advising her to get rid of the child, Counsel also pro- sed to prove promises of marriage, on the part of the jefencant. For the ruin of the reputation of the daughter, the loss of her servicrs to the mother, who ‘was entitled to them, the plaintiff claimed damages, ‘The child is still living. [The first witness called was | ““Hargier E, Nort —Lives near Orville, inthe town of DeWittr bas lived there since March, 18: lives with Mr. Wyman, and works with her mother, the laintiff in this case; was twenty years of age in June Fast; knows the defendant, Northrup; became aoc. | qualuted with him about three years azo; defendant | commenced paying attentions to witness a year ago last May; he continued to visit witness once a fort- night until the follewing October; usually visited witness on Sunday, and remained until 12 or 1 o’elock | at night; in October defendant made advances to witness, and she seked him for what reason; he re- plied for the purpose of murriage; after October he stated that his visits would not be as frequent, on ac- -count of having businers which would call him away from home; saw him on the 28th of November, at his mother’s, in Fayetteville; remained there until Sun- day, the 28th; fuom thence she went to ker home with the defendant, and there he bad intercouse with the witness. (We will not go into the detail of this witness’ testimony It is sufficient to say that It was irect and positive, showing # continued intimacy be- tween the parties, and the fuct that they were in the habit of visiting one another at Mr. Wyinan’s and at ‘his mother's, which visits continued at times for ti or three daysin succession, (The cross-examination | was conducted by Mr. Noxon, with his usual skill and ingenuity, and occupied some two hours. No new facts of material interest were elicited. The witness sustained the prolonged examination with a self-pos- session and intelligence which were creditabie.

A * — Washincton, October 25, 1848, To rne Epiton or 1He Henarp— Sin :—In 8 communication published in the Herald, on Sunday last, in relation to the Washington National Monument, now in the course of erection here, I re- gret to find that the writer has thrown out an insinua- tion, from which the reader might infer a want of economy on the part of the Board of Managers. He aseerts that, “instead of employing a horse, as is usually dene, some forty or fifty men man a rope at- hed to a small truck and haul away.” This is not the fact. The stone (blue gneiss) is landed on a wharf aboutone hundred and fifty yards from the founda- | tion of the monument, and is brought up to the build- ing by a stone wagon drawn by four horses, the stones weighing from two to eight tonseach. After theatone is deposited, some half a dozen laborers draw it up on | truck to the place where itis to be laid, (about eight | feet high) because it cannot, at present. be dome in any other way. Instead of forty or fifty laborers, there are not more than thirty employed on the monument; the rest are matons.and other workmen, who are oo- cupied industriously and skilfully, in laying the foundation, which is admitted by all’ who see it, to be the finest and most substantial specimen of masonry in this country. As the structure advances, machinery will be obtained to facilitate the work, and render the expense as littioas possible. EiThe Board of Managers, who have devoted thirteen Years of their lives to the accomplishment of an ob- ject which in intended to remove the stigma of in- gratitude from the character of their country, are, of course, too much interested in its completion to ox- pend the money they may obtain, unnecessarily or extravagantly. The work, when completed, will sur- pass every other monument in the world, and do honor to the patriotic feelings of the American people, by ‘whom it wiil be erected. The foundation is eighty.one feet square, which will be narrowed to nixty feet, at an elevation of twenty-seven feet, all of solid masonry—at this eleva- tion the great obelisk (five hundred feet high) will start. The walls will be fifteen feet thick at the base, withgen opening in the centre, of twenty-five feet, to | the top. The material, so far, has been obtained on the most reasonable terms, and the whole monthly ex- | penditure for labor does not exceed $1,340, a striking | evidence that the most rigid economy is observed by | the Board of Managers, in the erection of this mag- nificent andstupendous structure, This workis, more- | over, under the careful and constant supervision of @ Building committee, appointed by the board, and who, from the deep interest they feet in all that’ conosrns the monument, are careful that no useless expendi- | ture shall be made Resp'y y'ee, Se.

Telegraph, ‘The general anxiety throughout the United States, to arcertain, at the earliest practicable moment, the reevits of the Presidential election, induces the sab- soribrr to re ,uesi the telegraphers on the various lines within the Atlantic, Lake and Missiaai keep their offices open at all hours of ni | day, for the reception and transmission of aud for the correction of any errors. until ¢ 4 are correctly transmitted between all the States that are connected by these lines, viz: Pennsylvania, New York, Ohio, Maryland, Virginia, Kr atucky, Michigan, Indi Mlinois, Miscouri, lowa, Tennessee, Alabama, Miseissippi, and Louisiana. he exemplary manner in which the telegraphers erally have complied with public expectation om such occasions, renders it needless to add more than a request that extreme care be tuken to avoid error, by requiring that all despatches offered for transmission aball be written very plaialy, and with numbers in words instead of figures, Of course, no telegrapher, and no officer or other person connected with any telegraph company. will iransmit any deepatches that are not signed with a proper name; but, as an additional precaution, it is suggested that the residence of the writer be also ad lea to the despatch. ‘The reporters for the newspapers, at the various tele- graph stations, have itin their power largely to aid in these objects; and their co-operation is respectfull * invited, with’ the assurance that every thing whio can consistently be done, will be done topromote their convenience in disseminating correct, and early in- telligence respecting the Presidential election.

Sunday, Oct. 29—6 P. The stock market, during the week just closed, has experienced considerable fluctuations, and at one time a perfect panic had seized upon speculators. The of- fect was not, however, so disastrous as it would have ‘been had prices been more inflated. The decline pro- duced by this alarm @mong holders of fancies has since been partially recovered, and the market has again settled down into the usual quiet state; prices will gradually recover previous points, and dullness and inactivity again be the order of the day, for perhaj months to come. It is our impression, that the money market will steadily seften, until capital becomes a (yoomplete drug. The demand is already much less than it was sixty or ninety days since, and it is almost daily decreasing. The steady depreciation in prices, for all kinds of property, has alarmed operators of all kinds, and noone ventures upon transactions to any extent. The most reduced range of prices fails to tempt capitalists to chenge money into property; and there seems to be a rapidly growing disposition among all classes to lock up their capital in some enfe place, and patiently wait the course of events, ‘To sum up the whole, in a few words, confidence is completely fone, and there is no health in commercial affairs, Money is almost useless in Great Britain, and its abun. dance has reduced its value to the lowest point, and before the lapse of many months we shall, without doubt, realize the same state of things in this country. It is true that the same sum of money will purchase more cotton, more corn, more produce, and merchan- dise of any kind, and a greater quantity of stocks, ‘than at any previous period within the past five years ; ‘bat that is nothing when there is no market tor these articles, and those who purchase have to hold them a long time before an advance can be realized. There appears to be a Jullin all commercial enterprise, and we nee nothing in the prospective calculated to create a de- mand of any importance for our products, or to give any stimulus to price: The fature is filled with ap- prehension, and at present there is nothing but fear and distrust. If this state of things con. tinues long there will be a very important re- duction im production another year, and it will only be by checking the supply of all the necessa- ries of life that prices will recover their former level, In former times, reduced value of thi creased the consumption, and gave gren.t activity to the movements of all articles of trade, but 9, tod is not . the case now. Cotton never was so low as it is St pre- sent, and we see no indications of increased consu.™F- tion. Stock securities of every description never wer.” so much reduced as at pregent, and there is no dispo- sition to purchase them for investment. unnatural state of affairs, and it is impossible to tell when it will end, and what will be the result. The whole world is filled with all the elements o¢ wealth and prosperity. The raw material for food and raiment never was more abundant than this s and sti)l there is no disposition among speoulators to operate, There is no spirit among this important olass of dealers, and the courage usually exhibited by them has completely evaporated; the transactions made are literally from hand to mouth. Manufacturers have for » long time bee n heavy losers on their fabrics, and are likely to be so for a long time to come. Producers of breadstuffs have been but moderately remunerated for their toil, and have not found markets for their sur- Cotton planters have been compelled tomake enormous sacrifices on that staple, and many must have become involved in difficulties that will take years of high prices to remove, All these things have, however, happened many times befor producing an iota of so much distress among al) without deranging, to such an extent, the commercial affairs of the world—without creating such an utter prostration of public and private credit, such a complete destruction of confidence, and such a uni~ versal despondency and annihilation of every species It would be difficult to account, satis- factorily, for such a condition of affairs, and equally difficult to point out a remedy. cause does not exist within ourselves, but is entirely There is nothing in our ewn commercial or financial systems giving rise to, or giv. ing strength tosuch a state of thin cannot be found in any changes in the: the contrary, it is attributed almost entirely te the stringency of our financial system, that we are not more hopelessly involved in these difficulties. Merchants, no doubt, at first felt restricted in their operations by the existence of the Independent Treasury Act; the banks» no doubt, were compelled to contract their oredits by the steady demand created by that act for specie, and this they considered sufficient cause for complaint and opposition ; but where would one-half of the mer hants and the banks have been, at this moment. had t not been for the check placed upon them by that act, as imperfect as it is, and as loosely as its provisions have been administered? We will venture to say that they would not have been, at this moment, in existence, The revulsion which commenced in England, and spread over the commercial world, would have found them so much expanded in their operations, that they would have found it impossible to have sustained them- selves, and we shou!d have badas many bankruptcies to record as in 1837, or as oceurred in Europe during the past year. As it is, we have suffered seriously, and hun- dreds of houses, still in existence, have been severe suf” ferers by the numerous failures abroad; many have been swept of every fraction of their capital, and are strug- t enormous sacrifices,uncer- tain whether they will be able to weather the point or not. We must look for a remedy for the difficulties we are now laboring under, somew here else thanin any im- portant alterations or modifications in our financial or commercial systems, if we would have permanency in the improvement required. ing from originated abroad, and the remedy will have to come from the same quarter, antidote must originate from the same source. ‘The annexed statement exhibits the quotations for stocks in this market for each day of the past week, and at the close of the week previous. ceived that prices for some of the fancies closed several per cent lower than on the previous week :— Quotations vor THE Princirat Stocxs in tHe New Yoru Manurt.

The monument committee in New York have written to the committee here, in consequence, stating that the publication haw done a great deal of injury to the collections, and requesting a contradiction or explanation of the statements. We regret extremely to learn that our paragraph has affected the contributions to the fund ; but, as we made no comments, and merely stated a fact, 1t must be conceeded that it is gthe fact itself, and not our remarks, which caused the Injury. We are glad to learn that a horse 1snow used on one side of the work, and as soon as the castings for the rail-tracks are finished, horses will be used upon every side; the reason, itis asserted, men were employed, being that the castings were incomplete till now. The work, as we stated in our former letter, 13 teing proceeded with rapidly, under the superin- tendence of Mr. William Dougherty; and compe- tent judges assert that so far it contrasts favorably with any similar undertaking, either i Europe or this country, The stones, many of them weigh- ing at least ten tons, are embedded in cement, and lap over one another im such a way as to firmly bind the whole into a solid mass of mason- y This, it will be understood, is merely the ‘oundation of the shaft or column,which 18 to rise, toWermng into the air, five hundred feet from the earth.

The centre of tne column from thence to the top will be open, the walls being fifteen feet thick. Itis the intention of the building committee to purchase a steam-engine of 40 horse power, to raise the stone, saw the marble, &c. There are @ great many delays incident, of course, to the com- mencement of a work of the magnitude of the one in question, more particularly when begun in a hurry. And we have no doubt that the monu- mentcommittee will do all in its power to eco- nomically carry out the intention of the donors. Sull, we shall feel it our duty to watch the pro- gress of this great national work ; and whenever we see anything which we believe to be susceptible of improvement we will frankly state it A disgraceful scene took place in the Or- phan’s Court, yesterday, between two brothers- in-law, the one a lawyer and the other a doctor. Charges were bandied back and forth, of ‘cheat- robbing,” &c., till at length the two bro- in-law, very much to the astonishment of his honor, the judge, commenced a bout of fisticuffs. A fat gentleman present, endeavored to quell the batttle, and received, for bis pains, a well planted “hit” from each of the combatants. This satis fied the stout lover of peace, who immediately vanished, and permitted the belligerents to fight it out at their leisure. After several rounds the “gentlemen” got tired of their amusement, and the court adjourned. It isa difficult matter to decide which patty is Most sangune as to the result in November. Shillington, the famous periodical man, states, however, that ever since the results ot the Penn- sylvania and Ohio elections have become known, Taylor almanaes and song books have sold a hun- dred per cent better than Cass literature of the same stamp. Thisis conclusive; but of what, we don’t pretend to say. Omxaa. Wasuinorton, Oct. 27, 1848. An Elopement—Desertion of Bed and Boayd—The Parties Overtaken—An Affecting Scene-—The Denouement. Washington is full of unpublished misdoings. There is no author here to * do up,” in book shape, the ‘mysteries and miseries;” and hence there is a hiatus to be supphed. Some years ago, a gentleman of this city visited New York. While there, he stepped intoa store to buy shirts; and s0 captivated was he with the fair vendeuse, who was a widow, with a sweet young daughter, and whose atheistical views were in consonance with his own, that he made pro- posals of marriage, and the knot was tied. They came to Washington; he to be jenious of her admirers, and she to be admired; and go the matter continued for years. Inthe mean time, the daughter attained to woman’s estate, and ‘wa married; but, becoming dissatisfied with hi partner, they separated; she giving to him his passport. el Recently, with more earnestness than ever, the husband strongly protested against the visits of certain gentlemen; but the ladies scorned the in- terference im their private affairs, and, like the thirteen American colonies in 1776, they, in 1948, declared their independence of the sovereign. Of course, they had now to maintain themselves, | and depend upon their own resonrces. The West is the great field for enterprise and honorable livelihood. So, thitherward they di- rected their course. The wife and her two sons (boys five and nine years of age), and the divorced daughter, and her infant child (which, she said, isnamed General Shields, and isan ‘ adopted” son) constituted the emigrating party proper. There was a follower of the camp, however, known as the protector and the “uncle,” a word about whom will presently be uttered. meroury nsed, Strictures cured gearcely Thoso individuals Teathome ‘habit, eas pontirel Btrangers aro onutionod not to be removed Remember 19 Duane street. opposit R RALPH, AUTHOR OF THE “ PRAC' Treatise,” Ko, 88 Greenwich street—office hours 9 to 12 A, ‘M, 6 to 9 P.M.

Police officers immediately started in pursuit, on horseback, and the hushand accom- panied them in a carriage. In t'e afternoon, the Tunaways were discovered at Rock Creek, and near the District line. The occupant of the house in which they were sheltered was informed of the object of the visit, and he communicated the fact to the wife of the deserted spouse. With much | fairness, she consented to give him one child and retain for herself the other. The tormer she delt- vered upto an officer, and the latter she sent into the woods, toa hiding place. The second officer, who had been watching the progress of events, disappointed the plan of the fond mother, by serz- ing the living chattel, and bringing it to the spot where stood the inmates of the house, and all the rti : interested, except the daughter and the mele Their absence 18 thus accounted for. The davgbter had been taking a walk m the woods with the “uncle,” and while the officer was re- turning with the chiid, which his mother essayed de, he surprised the promenaders. The “nn immediately took to his heels, leaving the fair one alone, and unprotected. tis said that he has a femily in this city, and makes a livelihood by dealing in musical instruments. The party, as i have eaid, were all before the house, minus the daughter and the uncle. Mutual reproaches between the husband and the wife en- sued. The oldest child was anxious to go home with his father; the youngest was reluctant, and preferred the mother. It wasa_ ferious moment. Each parentwished to possess the children, caring nought for the separation ot themselves. The spec- tators were moved to tears, being conversant with the circumstances of the scene. The officers placed the boys under the care of the father, who returned to the city with them in the evening — The mother, enraged, declared that. she would either obtain them living, or have their bones. The mother and her daughter, and the “ adopt- ed” General Shields, and probably the “uncle,” are now on their way to the West, there to be for- ever separated from the husband, whose rejoicing over the retention of his children, counterbalances by far the regret of his wife's incontinencv. Penix PUILADELPHIA, October 29, 1848. Early yesterday morning, a fire broke out in a small grocery store on Carpenter street, below Ninth, which enveloped the upper portion of the building with smoke ; and two colored tamilies, living above, had narrow escapes fer their lives. The man and wife on the second floor eaved themselves by jumping from the window, and the
