Between Monday evening and Tuesday morning, @our stcamships arrived in this city, viz:—The Georgia avd Empire City, from Chagres, the Florida from Savannah, and the Union from New Wricans.

The first charter election, under the new organization of Jersey City, came off yesterday. The city is divided | into four wards and there was a great contest for the | land and water, ascendancy. The democrats had no organization, but several members of the party were on some of the The whole contest was between the whigs, which ure divided into several factions, The chief points | atissue were the water right, anti-monopoly, and a ge- neral independent ticket, all of which differed in their choiee of cantidates, It is impossible to tell what are the real objects of contention between the whigs, as searce twe cam be found to agree upon any one subject in which the city is interested. In the first ward four hundred votes were polled, but up to eleven o'clock last night but eighty were canvassed, in consequence of the divisions upon the several tickets. Robert Gilchrist, whig. is elected Mayor without opposition; and, at a late hour. the suecess of George BE. Catter. for Recorder, was very probable. The votes could not all be canvassed be- fore a late hour this morning, therefore it ix impossible to tell, at the time of going to press, how the Common Council will stand. Connecticut Election. We are without sufficient returns to enable us to deter- mine precisely the result of the eleetion on Monday. There is no choice for Governor, Lieutenant Governor, and other officers on the State ticket. Seymour, democrat, probably has a plurality of about 1,000 over Foster, whig. and the freesoil vote may reach 2,500, The Governor and State of- ficers must therefore be chosen by the Legislature. on joint ballot. The Senate consists of 21 members; the House of about 220. The first reports were unfavorable to the whigs; but further returns. yesterday, look better for that party, and render the result as to the Legislature very uncertain. There 1s a United States Senator to be chosen in place of Mr. Baldwin, whig, whose term ex- pired on the fourth oP March last. In Connecticut, Sevators are elected by a concurrent vote of both branches of the Legislature. Of course, either party, to suceced, must carry atmajority of both houses; other- wise disagreement between them will prevent an elee- tion.

The average pro- duct of gold, per head, has largely fullen off, and the fact cannot be disguised. It is our impression that the receipts of gold at this port from California, during the year 1801, will not average more than two millions of dollars per month. From this time out, the receipts per | month must be large to make the above-named average for the year. ‘An admirably executed couaterfelt bill, of the denomi: nation of five dollars, on the Bank of Middletown—a re- issue of the Relief notes—has just made its appearancer and unless great care is observed, will be widely circu- lated, ‘The general appearance of the bill, when compar. ed with a genuine notejof the bank, would probably detect its spurious character. ‘The signature and the figures com, posing the number are in. « heavier hand and in blacker ink than the genuine, The faint lining” in the medalliow head on the right end of the bill. is up and downithe face, while on the counterfeit it is nearly across the face. More certain marks of detection, however, with those who may nothave a gepuine bill af hand, to compare with, may be found in the word “five” in the bottomining of the bill. In the genuine it appears twenty-seven times—in the counterfelt only twenty-six times—and in the imprint of the genuine, “Danforth, Underwoods& Co.”—there is & full point after the “Co."’—tn the counterfeit there is no full point.
