By the arrival of the American steamship Pacific, at this port, yesterday, after a very short passage of eleven days and three hours, we are in receipt of four days’ later intelligence from Europe. When we consider the time of the year, this is an extraordinary passage, one of which the country may well be proud. Amoog the passengers, it will be perceived, is Parodi, the celebrated voc :liat, who is engaged at the Astor Place Opera House, nd whose arrival has been looked for with a great deal of interest. All doubts, therefore, about this lady’s coming to the United States are at anend. The news by this arrival is not important in either a political or commercial point of view. The war between the Danes and Schleswig Holsteiners Was in statu guo at the last accounts, the former eontenting themselves with remaining on the de- feasive. fu the present position of Europe, if this | state of egitation between Denmark and the Duchies continues, it may awaken larger powers | tnto action, particularly it Lonis Napoleon and the National Assembly, as seems probable, should form iwo active parties hostile to each other. The death of the estimable consort of Leopoid, the Queen of the Belgians, at a comparatively - dom do, and never without acoomp! shing their ob- ject, and silence fanatics, and show demagogues suc revolutionists that there is a power greaterthan theirs, based on virtue, integrity, and moral worth, irresistible as the cataract of Niagara. To the meeting, then, on Wednesday evening, at Castle Garden—let New York speak to the agi- tators in tones of thunder. Tux Fuorrive Suave Law—Pzoonsss or Sz- warn’s Agitation AGainst it at THe Nontu.— The abolition agitation, directed against the laws of the United States, and in defiance of the wisdom of the constitution, hee practically shown itself in several Northern cities, This has all sprung from Seward’s firet movement againat the sanctity of the law in the Senate of the United States, where he counselled opposition and treason, in plain terms. On his head be the original sin of raising rebellien to the will of the people of these United States, as firmly expressed by the act of their representa- tives, the only authorities by which citizens are to be guided. The arrest of fugitive slaves, thus far, has been confined to the cities of Philadelphia, Detroit, New York, and Boston. In the first two cities, the alleged fugitives have been discharged from cus- tody. In New York, the supremacy of the law has been maintained, above all individual feeling— above all persona! partialities opposed to the au- thority of the United States, and in recogaition of the sacred duty te our country, involved in the principle, that we have no right to indulge in feel- ings of « personal nature, in violation of a known law and against the interests of society, as legally established by the popular will. The crime of rebellion is monstrous, and particularly so in this country. Itis generated by an individual dogma opposed to the confederated opinion of the whole people. Once successful in its treasonable de- mands, there is an end to all government. Nulli- fication has had its day—dissolution practically takes place, from the very moment that the laws are not respected. We rejoice, therefore, that New York bas been true to the instincts of the American mind. It is the triumph of law, order, peace, and harmony, over the anarchy of Sewardism, abolitionism, ultraism, and every other crude and unhallowed opinion hostile to the interests of the Union. Every good citizea will rejoice that we have thus been true, ia this Siate, to the constitu- tion end lawse—that we have spurned all “higher law” as unfit for the government of mea, and only | suited to the ambitious views of Lucifer and his | fallen angels—to Seward, Weed, Greeley’and those | political myrmidon’s who blow the trampet of the Union, aud yet bear upon their shoulders the mis- siles of deetruction, disunion and anarchy—encour- aging, under the placid, pliant complaisance of as- sociated politicians, resistance to the highest au- thority, to the constitution and laws, those embo- dimeuts of the popular will from the very foundation of the confederacy. Let it be charged that patri- otism is agitating—that there would be tranquillity, if it would but be silent. Yes—such tranquillity as early age, will be heard of, in this country even, with regret. The most interesting point of immediate interest, | on this continent, is the successful negotiation of | Meevers. White and Vanderbilt, with respect to the | Nicaragua canal, at least as a preliminary step. | They have so far succeeded as to induce the princi- | pal capralists of London to throw open one-half of | the stock of the canal for British competition, | and to do this at uo distant day. Of course, | it is imporsible to say what effect may inci- | dentally arise from the very warm dis- | cussions now going on in this country, and in | England elso, as to the position of Nicaragua, un- | der the recall of our late Charge to that country, | aud the very anomalous position of the British, in | demanding duties from American vessels at San | Juan, which is termed by the English, Greytown. These apporent trifles may grow into serious diffi- | @ulties, or they may be deemed unworthy of the fasiant consideration of this government. However, tt is not to be concesled thet we have pledged our faith to Nicaragua, and even the possible benefit of a vessible canal, cannot justify our proving untrae fo a weak government, that has granted the New York Company” facilities, upon the etipu- latioe—expreseed or implied—that Great Britain shall rot eppropriate the territory of Nicaragua for the benefit of herself, even under the plea that it | belongs to the King of Moequito—whose throae is arum berrel, and whose piace is a tent, built of boughs and old slabs, and searcely fit for the shel- ter of adonkey. Sunil, if the canal isa feasible preject, and can be carried forward, it will be a | great benefit to all the mations of the earth ; but no | rational fraud, even under the sanction of lofty names, can justify bad faith, on our part, towards | Nicaregua, and at that poiat our people will stick, | and thewore firmly stick, in consequence of our | wnivereul desire to uphold the Monroe doctrine on thio continent. | my e Whe Great Meeting—Popular Demonstration for the Union and Constitation, We will endeavor to publish to-morrow, the call for 8 great Pustie Tina, to be held at Castle Gar- den on Wednesday evening next, for the purpose of expressing the public opinion of New York, ia op- position to any further agitation of the slavery ques tion, and in favor of the compromise measures passed at the last session of Congress. This call is signed by three or tour thousand of the most respectable and | influential pereous in this city, of all classes, compri- sing merchante, traders, mechanics and professional men ofall kinds. These names have been collected within the last three or four days, and probably not a dozen of thove who were applied to for their sig- natures, refused uniting in this great movement. it is expected that, before the night of meeting, the Kiet of names will be swelled to some ten thousand, comprising the bone, sinew, wealth, enterprise, ia- telligemce, and moral worth of this mighty meiro- pole Thus we go. This meeting promises to be one of the greatest meetings, and may produce a greater effect than apy that has taken place in this eity for many Jong years—probdably for half a cen- tury—is is only the beginning of a great move- ment on the part of the North. If there were time and opportunity, before the election of next week, with the force now in action, and the influence a; work, it would be very easy to organize similar con- stitutional meetings in every town and village in this State, from New York to Niagara Falla; and, at the first onset, to call into action, within a few popular force of over ome hundred thousand votes of indepentent men, who are opposed to Seward’s welavery agitation, and in favor of ghe constitution, and all its compromises, and of supporting, to the fullest extent, the measures which were advoeated in Congress by Mesars. Clay, Webster, Cass, Foote, Dickinson, and This movement, begua as it is with 20 much influence, determination and respectabi- lity, ae well as with any «mount of money at com- mand, will most likely determine, in some proper way, the election which Will take place next week, and give a new and better direstion to the policy of the two old parties, that een corrupted du- wing the past few years, by unptincipled lawyers and parsons who have turned politi¢ans. In any light in which this movement is viewed, i is one of the most important that has ever taken place in the country. The pditicians and agitators of beth parties, by their amhition and charlatanry, have brought the Union te the brink of disaster and ruin. They have aleo directed a blow at the commercial in- tereste of the North, and New York in particular, ‘which cannot be recovered for years. If our mer- ehan‘s, traders, mechanics and professional men, ‘were to remain supine any longer, their business prospects would not only be ruined, but scenes of anarchy, civil war, and bloodshed might ensue, that would be attended with the most direful con- sequences. The Rabicon hae been passed, and there wae nothing left for the conservative portion of society t@ do but to come forth, which they sel- | vious. precedes the earthquake, upheaving from the cen- tre,and changing the whole exterior, sweeping thousands and tens of thousands to ruin; and rell- ing the heavy, leaden waves of destruction over the whole surface of society. Tranquillity, iadeed! The very Marsic war of the United States has commenced, and yet we are told we must be tram quil. We have our Campania, our couatry of the Sabines, and our Picenam—our northern, middle aud southern anta:onisins, another great social disruption, urged on by the enemies of their coun- try, and those avowedly, openly seeking power for their individual emolument, and yet we must be trangail. Ia Boston, the fanatical and heedless followers of the imposter Seward, of the arch con- triver of mischief, Weed, end of the sly-bootes of political hypocrisy, Greeley, ofler their opposition to the laws, but we bave faith in the power of the great conservative portion of that locality. Sound | constitutional law will never be overlooked in that quarter. Sould faction triumph for a time—the | laws be trampled upon—there will yet be ia the | universal instinct of Massachusetts a feeling re- | pugnant to any act which may be constraed into | nullification. | Let us be charged with agitating. It is time we were. For whatdo we agitate? We derive no power, privilege, place, or emolument, except from the people themselv As far as our duty goes we go with it. Plainly does it lead us to cry aload and spare not, when the monstrous doctrines of Seward, as uttered by him in the United States Senate, ere infecting the thoughtless end heedless | of our great cities, aed leading the bewildered and deceived into positions which may eventually terminate in civil war, bloodshed, and massacre. Agitate we ought, and agitate we must, In the phyeical world, one etom disturbed must disturb another, and so on through the whole mass of matter must agitation apring from agitation. So in the political world is the same truth made ob- Seward has distarbed the harmony of this government. He has put all the disturbing forces at work, checking some here, and moving others there. Allhe desires, or that the wretched sup- pliants of his favor ask, is that we shall be tranquil. | “Save the party—seve Seward, if you dissolve the Union,” is the virtual cry of those publie sbeets who would barter their birthright for a mess of pottage, or make a league with Seward or Setan, for the sake of proving true to an associa- tion of politicians, who will not look beyond their hopes of prefermeat and place—though in the dis tance the palpable truth of ruin itself warns them to etop their agitation—an agitation commenced by their own idol—the conspicuous, yet contemptible Cataline of his country Tur Sixt Conoressiona Disrrict.—Both parties in this district are at work, the democrats | having selected John Cochrane, and the whigs re- pominating James Brooks, as candidates for Con- gre We are much in doubt about these nomina- tions. It is stated that Mr. Cochrane is a free soiler. If this is true it is curious enough. Free toilers are getting more and more scarce, in this State, every day. Now, if Mr. Cochrane ie of the free soil stamp, we shall oppose him with all the force in our power, because the time has come to place barriers around the constitution. We must | know who ie true to the country asa whole, be- | fore we can consent to risk the weight of a feather towards ejecting a virtaal enemy of the constita- tion and Union. As to the other candidate, James Brooks, much may be said. Weknow more of him than we do of John Cochrane. We have his history, and are not perplexed about his general character and fit- ness for Congress. During the Inet session his conduct was pretty good—but it is said that he bolted on the final vote for the Fugitive Slave bill, though he was faithful in his acts against the Gal- phin eabinet. The great difficulty with James Brooke ia this: He is the editor of the Express, and while professing the utmost friendship for the rights of the South, and a strong devotionto the constitution and the laws of the Union, in that newepaper he advocates the Seward abolition State ticket, wholesale and retail, the success of which would make the renewal of the slavery agitation tenfold more destructive than it ever has been within the last twenty years. There is political duplicity in such coaduct—duplicity so transparent as to be an ineult to the perceptions of the people of the Sixth Congressional district, who are op- ‘astraddie the fence, one leg dangliag on one side, fated the other on the other, ready to jamp into the Hous: of Representatives either wa Really, we must send a committee to the Sixth district, to bore for water, truth, or fact, and thus be relieved from the doubts and diffioulties which embarrass our judgment. Cochrane and Brooke will please to explain, distinetly, elearly, and unequivocally, what they do mean—if they mean eaything at all, more than, if they cam, to be elected. Let both come out “unflinchingly.~ Avrr-Scaven¥ axp tux Six Taspe—-Tax Carns or Cun tawnts é& Buss, any Bowsn & MoNamas. Wicaragua and the United States. An intelligent correspondent of La Cronies, —Thie recent awakening of this great commercial | writing from Granada de Nicaragua, under date community, produced by the renewal, under Sen- ator Seward’s auspices, of the anti-slavery agita- tion in New York, has brought out some curious developements, singular declarations, and unique cards, from persons transacting business in the vicinity of ‘Change, in Wall street, or in the silk and cotton line, in Broadway. It appears that, in collecting signer. for the new and important Union meeting, which is tobe held on Wednesday eve- ning at Castle Garden, some few persons refused to go with their fellow citizens into a recognition of the laws of the country, and would not put their names upon the general subscription, in favor of the peace measures of Congress. This caused some agitation in the commercial circles of the metropolis, and those who derive a portion of theiy profits from their Southern trade, were anxious to be relieved from all suspicion, by bringing forward those who refused. Accordingly, we find that one or two who have declined sigaing the call, have given explanations, as will be seen by the annex- ed cards :— Te the Editor of the Evening Pi Dean Bin—We have, an another nas well said “no principles to sell,”” but if we supposed the public, or ‘our business comnections, interested to know our senti- ments on apy particular subject, we should not object to advertising them. It is not our opinion that you designed. or were even willing to represent us, in your leader of yesterday, as having been induced by fear to sign the call for the “Union meeting.” but we think this the fair and obyi- anguage. eliberately determined to sign the k wpon us appeared in the Journal ef Commerce, and we did not choose to be deterred from signing it, on account of that. If you were as familitr, as you may easily becom: with certain movements which have been in progr in New York, during the last two ‘ks, you would be in no danger 01 suspecting us of being easily “alarmed” ¥ the malice of . or the denunciation of those who do their dirty work ‘We ehsll feel obliged if you will give this a place in olumns, And rewain, very respecttully yours, ree a eee GMICTENDEN & BLISS A Canp.—The public, including the New York Jour- merce, are jotormed re Silk Mer. | d keep an extensiv assorted stock ot goods, which fer to responsible buyers on rea sonable terms. ndividuals, we entertain our own views on the various religious, moral and political questions of the day, which we are neither afrald or ashamed to declare on all proper occagions. But we with it distinctly understood, that our goods and not our principles, are inthe market. The attempt to punish us as merehants, tor the exercise of our liver- ty as citizens, we leave tothe judgment of the com- munity. BOWEN & McNAMBE. The sentiments put forth in these cards sound very well and seem quite appropriate, yet it appears on looking a little deeper into the matter, that, ac- cording to the Evening Post, Messrs. Chittenden & Bliss, and Messrs. Bowen & McNamee, are joint proprietors in the Independent newspaper, a very violent abolition journal, conducted by Ward Beecher. They do not alone confine themselves to the eale of dry goods—cotton, silks and velvets. Each firm has two shops, one ia Broad- way, where they sell articles to clothe the body, and another somewhere else, where they dispose, by wholesale or retail, certain Independent sheeta, one yard and two inches long, by about thirty-five inches broad, at six cents each, with a discount to wholesale purchasers, which are intended to adora the mind with anti-slavery doctrines. Itis nothing new for merchants to have two shops for the sale of different kinds of goods, and, therefore, to pro- scribe these merchants, is not exactly correct, ac” cording to the rules of right and privilege. They have a perfect right to sell the silks and other arti- cles imported by them, provided they do not iajure the country, and without any further regard to the constitution and laws, they have a right also tosell their opinions and anti-slavery notions at any and every shop they may find it profitable or agreeable to their own taste to establish. In fact, no one can reasonably object to their making Heary Ward Beecher their chief clerk in the anti-slavery trade, or John Jones im the cotton line. All this comes into their rights as citizens. There is a point, however, beyond these con- siderations. If, through their agency, and by means of their doctrines, issued at six cents @ sheet, the laws of the Union should be resisted, or not obeyed, as they recommend in the Independent, and they should thus promote nullification and a diseolution of the Union, they will be held, and ought to be so held, responsible, as patriots and citizens, for the results of their conduct, in selling the dryest goods possible, hereafter to ignite for a general conflagration of soviety. The truth is, that the anti-slavery agitation has been going on now for twenty years, and promises to show us great consequences, on a wholesale scale, if we may judge by the details in some special cases recently come to light. This confederacy has been established seventy years. The first fifty years passtd away harmoniously—the North re- cognizing, and not interfering with, the constita- tional privileges of the South, Within twenty years, @ spirit of misrule and anarchy has sprung up, and though e have averaged at the North, from our Southera trade, profits to the amount of fifty millions of dollars annually, or about three hundred and fifty millions of dollars during the period of our existence under the Union, yet we seem not to be satisfied with this result of oar industry, but would break upon the interests of our Southern brethren, and cripple their enterprize, regardless of all our duties to the country as a con- federacy, sealed by a sacred compact. Our trade has grown up under a constitution and laws framed by the representative wisdom of the whole coun- try, singularly well selected for promoting equal results to all sections of the Union. The consti- tution has granted certain privileges both te the North and the South. It is a compict of com- promises, in all its relations, and, till mem began to direct their thoughts treasonably against its wise provisions, all was peace, prosperity, and harmony. The last twenty years, how: ver, have exhibited scenes of crimination, recrimination, and agitation; and now the pelitical design of the agi- tators of the North, is to injure the general prow perity, and to set the two great sections ef the confederacy against each other, in a manner hostile to our commercial success, if not to our existeace as one people. No maa can doubt this. The crisis is now ra- pidly approaching when the balance account be- tween the two great sections will be made up, and some new steps will be taken to diaselve the part- nerebip so long found favorable to all classes and all conditions of trade. Under these circumstaaces, and in view of the danger of a new experiment, we advise the gentlemen who sell dry goods at vari- ous prices, and opinions against the supremacy of the constitution and laws, at six cents a sheet, three feet two inehes long, by thirty-five inches broad, to loek over their commercial liabilities with some care, and not to forget, at the same time, that their duties should leed them, as good citizens, to respect the laws of their country—to contenance no (reason—and to be trae to the inte- reste of all men, #0 as not to sacrifice a at pre- sent good for a mere prospective and ideal future. Dramatic Amusements.—This evening bring out great talent in the various drama' temples of the metropolis. At the Astor Place Opera House, “ Lucia di Lammermeor” will be bee produced by a powerful operatic company—at the Py ry ty the ram Bowery Theatre, Mr. Graham, an English tra- gedian, will make his first appearance in thie country, performing one of the most lofty charac- tersof the modern drama—and at the Broadway Theatre, Sir William Don, a celebrated English | sdmi posed tw the Seward abolitionists, and who will | comedian, will represent two of the most amusing beyou not be disposed to admire James Brooks, as he is | and eccentric rives of moderna farce. The lovers of the drama must make their selection from these, and other dramatic novelties, elsewhere, and give the strangere a welcome. Woman’s Rients Convention.—In another eo Juma will be found the sum and substance of the late gathering of crazy old women, at Worcester, Mass. The convention, it appears, was headed by Lucretia Mott, Garrison, and Fred Douglas; while Sojourner Trath, a lady of a very dark eolor, and Grbby Greeley, as the official organ, bring up the eer. of September 21st, alludes to the prevalent feeling in that country, as follows :— Relative to political affairs, I cop: a pistien eta ey ter which I have received from a friend in Leon, of the date of the 16th ins’ ant. He says:— ‘The i aavreaptnaens eta tsh ing atten) & subjest of rei and to ‘another thing, which is more important, y of the States, in respect to N ‘stand still. bas obliged the Bazarament L is ote ju) ng w, in istinot an: manner, and in one word, if Nicaragua is, or is wot, American guarantee; because, although it is stig the Clayton aud Bulwer treaty, that no part of the ter- ritory of | this a ntral America, shall bo coon! |, fortified, blockad: ete,, ete, it the inte oceupied by the English not'been returned.

They ask if Nica y this treaty; if she is, why San J ind made free of all f forees; if not, the government intimates that it will the best terms it can with England, and aba he polio it has maintained towards the United States. © * © has ived by the government from i mavy favorable things, ly relations. The gove its willingai ritish government, but jo. 60 when Mr. Chatfeld comes with powers Fs to restors the post of San Jaan to its le- re. Without this it can take no step to le relations. These extracts need no comment. The Clay- ton and Bulwer treaty is confessedly a humbug; it is not worth the paper it is written on, and leaves the whole Nicaragua question worse than it found it. It was vauntingly proclaimed that under it England was obliged to evacuate the Mosquito shore, and thus practically carry out the Monroe doctrine. But instead of this, England is assuming & more errogant position than ever in the matter; and so far from being relieved from British en- croachments, and left to the free occupation of her egitimate ports and terfitories, Nicaragua is over- awed by an increased British force. A beautiful commentary on this famous treaty! Nicaragua is quite justified in her indignation, and warranted in suspecting the United States of cowardice and bad faith. We have neverseen the necessity of treating at all with Great Britain in this matter. Nit gua was and is the only power which hasa right to be consulted, or with which we really have anything to do. Had the government at once adopted the treaty negotiated by our late minister, under direct instructions from General Taylor» and which secures everything which is desirable for us or the world, on conditions just and favora- ble to all, the whole affair would have been set- tled long ago—the honor of our country saved, and our influence in Central America secured for- ever. But Clayton temporized, scribbled notes, and had wirdy interviews with Bulwer, who was equally gasseous, but more cunning, and the result meaningless, worthless treaty, which complished, and will accomplish, no good; but leaves, as we have said, the whole question in a worse condition than before. The only remedy is for the Senate to ratify Mr. Squires’ treaty, with- eut further nonsense, and give the notice necessary to terminate the Clayton and Bulwer moon-calf convention. The straight-forward way of doing things is the best; ourinterests in Central Amer- ica are in peril, and the people are disposed to stand no more diplomatic twattle in respect to them. A little decision is all that ia necessary to bring things to a favorable issue, and we trust this administration will display it. We have a right to expect it. Arrival of Parodi—Musical Enthasiasm. After the arrival of the Pacific last eveming, Parodi having been announced as one of the passengers, a great desire was evinced to see a lady who has become 80 distinguished in the musical world. Accordingly, group alter group visited the various hotels, until it was ascertained that apartments had been taken for her, by Maretsek, at the Union Place Hotel, Soon after, crowd collected in the square, till it ewelled to thousands, anaious for » peep at the beautiful yooaltst ‘expressini or dy her brother, « window, Bhe is tall, elegantly formed, majestic young jady, with beautiful blue eyes and black hair, and ad- mirably fitted to fill the rolés made celebrated by Pasta.

Cortision —As the steamer Pacific was passing up the North River, yesterday atternoon, she came in contact with the ship Esmeralda, (just arrived from Liverpool.) laying at the «nd of Pier No. 4, breaking in the larboard bow of the B., and damaging the star- board guard of the steamer. An idea of the force of trust that she will be permitted to enjoy @ season of | the shock may be forihed, from the fact that the bow timbers of the ehip. which are placed as close together ‘as it is possible to place them, and then being caulked, were broken in like so many deals.

Bonpar, Oct. 27—6 P.M. The stock market, during the past week, has bser- very active. Prices have fluctusted considerably, and the bears have been able to get im some of their shorta ateslight depreciation, On the other hand, the ad- vance has put some of them deeper into the mire than they were betore, d it is our impression that at the close of the market yesterday, the bears wore much more deeply invelved, than upon the opening. Within the past two months prices have advanced tive an@ ten per cent. Reactions have, from time to time, beem experienced, but they have been moderate compared with those of previous yoars, Holders have not been larmed in the least by these temporary depressions, and have merely withdrawa from the market, and waited patiently for the upward movement to agaiz commence, which has frequently been produced by @ demand for stoek from the bears for the fulfilment of their contracts. The improvement in prices for many stocks is the result cf & eorresponding im~- provement in the actual value of the invest- ment. In several instances, the advanee in pri- ces bas not kept pace with the improvement in the affairs of the comp: Many, no doubt, entertain the idea that the recent ris: is purely epeculative— that the inflation is emtirely artificial—and that a col- lapee ere long will be realized, Nothing short of « long train of disasters, in the working of the principal lines of internal improvements, can bring about the result anticipated. Several stocks have bsen carried up with the rest that are wortn no more, or, perhaps not so much as they were six mont! e ; but out- tiders are not so easily imposed upon now, end are pretty shrewd in their selection for investment, per- manent or temporary, Upon an examination of the list of sales, daily made at the board of brokers, it will be reen which stocks we allude to. The easy money market enables purchasers (o carry their stoeks without much trouble ; and confidence among holders is so great, that jt will be found almost impossible to get prices for good securities down more than one or two per cent, even during the dull season If holders of fancy stocks should put them upon the market, what could they do with the proceeds? They could deposit them in the banks and lose interest, and that is about ail. ‘There is at this moment an immense amount of money seeking employmont—the bank deposits are rapidly increaring, and the probability is, that from thie time to the epening of the spring trade, capi- tal will steadily increase ip quantity upon the market. ‘This, of itnelf. is a sufficient guarantee that prices wil; be sustajned; bat the prospect of receiving good divi- dends upon maney stocks which have heretofore been conridered the greatest fancies, must have a very great influence upon holders. and keep the market steady All the good. sound dividend paying public securi- ties will not vary much during the next four or five nth. With one or t soeptions, they range and probably will be maintained at Railread bonds are in demand, and capatalie’ ratisfed that no better or enfer securities are to be had in the market. None o¢ the six per cents, in this market, are selling above par, while State stocks bearing the same rate of lo- terest, com: & premium ranging from five to twenty per cent. The seven per cent railroad bonds are the best investments we know of, and it is a mat- ter of much astonishment to us, that the market has not been swept of every one afloat, The decline in Delaware and Hudson Canal, during last week, was a vuse of some holders to get prices down, so es to bay in, for the purpose of getting hold of as many of the new shares about being f*eued, as possible. The resull tlelpated was not realized, and the old stock has regain- ed old prices. Canton Company has nearly recovered former prices. Holders bave not offered their stock much lately, and the transactio: luring the week have been comparatively limited, Farmers’ Loan has, by all odds, been the most active fancy on the list, and learn that more of it has been withdrawn from the market, than any other on the books of the Beard.— ‘The largest purchasers are thove having access to the Accounts of the company, from which we should judge that there is more below the sarface than is dreamed of by outeiders geverslly We shall know in « day or two all about it. As for Erie Railroad stock, the lear faid about it the better. We can say nothing in favor Of it, at present prices, as estment, aud we are not dirpored to ray anything against it. It would be well for the public to recollect what we have said, amd go- elves accordingly. It is selling at at nt below the market price six months since vix per Harlem bas not improved much sinoe it was arranged bandeome iuoreace on last yea of the company are very fiattering. Molders feel con- it that thesteck will t seventy-five in less than ths. Norwich and Worcester has become & great favorite within the past day or two. It will be seen by the tacle of quotations given below, that ee Of three per cent has been realized since September 1850, amount to $05 849 40, Against $84 014 12 for the corresponding months in 1849 showing an increase in the four months, this year, of $10,995 28, This looks very well, and is sucient to secure, at least, a three per cent dividend on the Ist of January next. It is one of the cheapest stocks on the list, and will, without doubt, improve, Reading Rall- road is moving w rd agele, it is the impression in the street that it will touch seventy thistime, The amount of coal transported on this road daring the first three weeks of October, was bat little short of one bundred fifty thousand tone. During the re- maining ten about seventy-five theusand tone will be transported, making an aggregste of two hun- dred and twenty-five theusand tons for the month ‘This, with the other business of the company, wil) give a gross Income of about four handred théusand dollars. It ts stated that the net receipts for the month will be fall three hundred thousand dollars. Morrie Canal closed firm st our quotations, Several thou- sand shares have been taken out of the market by Borton pureharers, and there are large holders in this market, in Philadelphis sad Baltimore, The beare have made desperate efforts to depress this stock; how well they have succeeded will be seen by the quotations. Tt would be well enough for the bears to understand, before they involve themselves any deeper in street contracts for this stock, that the canal and ite revenue comprise bat s pertion of the property and rerources of the company. The dock pri- dest acquainted with the value efsuch property, to be worth at least helfa million of dollars. Jersey City ie destined to be the great depot of the Western trade. The Erie railroad must ultimately terminate at that point, The Morris canal will make it » great coal market, and the raiironds starting across New Jersey, will give Jersey City great importance as an entre port.
