SScedd ‘the _g00d, sound pecurities a ate, the. beat for even rpeculatcrs to deal im. The slavery question appears to be og @ orisis with rapid strider, aad eo the matters at raw nearer « feous, the excite. ment at the seat of govermmont increases. The pro. position to admit California iato the Union is now fairly before Congress, and the movement hes already aesumed a tangible shape. The question of slavery or no slavery in @ free territory has been properly placed before the representatives of the preple, and it will e0om be disposed of. Before it is Anally settled, however, we must expect a great many incen- diary speeches from those representing the extreme sections of the country, and the exhibition of a great deal of fanaticiom; but the result no one who coolly and calmly reflects upon the matter, can for ® moment doubt, Im the meantime, holders of our public securities, both st home and abroad, will doubt- Jers realise, in anticipation of a deprecation in prices; but it is our impressiom that by so doing, they will, (if disposed to renew the investment.) be obliged to pay much more for them than they will now receive. In Europe, the agitation of this slavery question is con- aldered indicative of » speedy dissolution of the Unio: Dut there is little fear ot such # result on this sii ‘We have been #0 long used to the cry of wolf, that it has long since ceased to startle us, or oven create any slarm, and there probably never has been « period in the whole history of the country, when the slavery question could be better disposed of, or more'satisfacto- Tily adjusted, than the present. The Mexican war, and the discovery of gold in California, have doubtless hastened the orisis; and although a little discord may be experienced in tuning the public mind, we shall have nothing but harmony when it has once more been properly set. The masses entertain but one opin- 40D upon the slavery question, and fanaticism is pow- er'ons when the sober second thought of the people be. gins to operate Stock Exchan; Hp US6% ‘a 1143 100 shs Erie RR » 62 Pu lo 13% 150, do Oo 6? 1 do 62 éo 6234 | do ad5a 62) do 62) do 62 do 00 63 do 63 8 do 29 6 125 Canton Co 9% 25 do o 20 Long Island RR AT 200 Harlem RR ‘374 re " do ay do bd be 80 do 30” 150 Reading RR 3 200 de 3 Eat ¢ do 35 SN York & Ni DavER 96° 100 do to a 13 100 do 390 40 fo wen 33% Io Ge 3% oo boo 15" 100 do 368 180 1M per maBCOND BoaRD. rie 7's Old Bde 107% 80 she Harlem RR B34 ‘20 do 18H 83% 20 163s bm do 54 66 wo do 60 544 1465 & im a Bay 100 60 234 200 Farners' Trust 39 25 63:3 150 Readiog RR 35 20 63 bdo 35 100 3 5 &: 100 123 10 N Am Trust W% 0. 13% BS 10% 200 v7 "ADVERTISEMENTS RENEWED KVEBY DAT.
