Onstaucrion or Sivewatus Down Town.—New York is celebrated no less for high taxes than for a wonderfully lax administration of the municipallaws. We have good enough city ordinances, but they are not enforced. We have a good number of policemen, but they fail in the Performance of those duties which are requized of them, in order to secure the comfort of the citizens at large. The law which was framed for the establishment and re_ gulation of the police department, made it the duty of the sergeants and policemen to report, through the eaptainsand assistant captain, “ all violations of the corporation ordi- nances,” Now, one of the corporation ordinances forbids the obstruction of the streets and sidewalks; and yet there are many blocks down town where one cannot pass, du- ring business hours, without climbing over a mountuin ‘of boxes, or else by taking to the carriage way, and thus incurring the risk of being run down by the vehicles which are constantly passing. This obstruction of sidewalks is @ grievous wrong, even in Pearl and Broad streets, where there is but little pedestrianism, except by business men; but when the evil is extended to Broadway, which is alwaye thronged by a mixed multitude of maics and fe- males, it is time to have a stop put to this abameless vio- lation of a plain and sensible law. To plead, in extenuation of this fauit. the usages of bustness men, is perfectly non- sensical. The law was made to meet just such cases. Per- #ons who have no use to make of the sidewaiks, will not be likely to obstruct them, and hence there is no necessity of legislation in the matter so far as they are concerned ; but merchants who are continually packing goods to send away, are yery likely to obstruct the walks, and it was to t them from doing so that the law was made. ny of our old citizens are now, as they have been for Scores of years. in the habit of walsing through Broad- way to the Battery every day. These old residents com- plain sadly that the walks are now obstructed in such a manner as they are. and with apparent impunity. What are the-officers of the police about, that they do not re- Port the violations of ordinances ? If they would do so, And continue vigilant for a few days, we should once more have our oid promenade, despoiled, it is true, of the old mansions and fashionable boarding houses with which it used to abound, but we should still have the wide side- waike, and the Battery at their termination. There is no necestity for blocking up the sidewalks; and if every ‘merchant would give proper orders to the clerks and por- ters iu his employ. this nulrunce would very easily be abated. But the grand secret is this:—The numerous boxes upon the sidewalk, in front of a jobbing house, is a species of silent bragging. The boxes of jobber No 1 say. in theirown |: , * See what a business our house is doing.” And forthwith. jobber No. 2 parades twice the number of cases in front of bis store. which means, in goods box language, ** This beats you, Mr. No. 1, when speedily No 3 dumbfounds both, by putting out as many as both No.1 and No. 2 aombined ‘The worst of it is, that this cvil is allowe? tosexist, just where its abatement is most called * | “1 the uppe Wards it is not 80.

We would respectfully invite the attention of the captains of the First, Second, and Third wards police to the above sug- gestion, Let us have Broaaway us it used to be, when every afternoon hundreds of the most respectable of our citizens were to be seen wending their way towards Bow- ling Green and Castle Garden. Come, Messrs. Captains, issue your orders, and have all these violations of the law promptly reported. and the task of clearing the sidewalks will be a comparatively easy matter. Rox Over.—A man named Patrick McCabe was tun over by a wagon and pair of horses, on Wednesday, at the corner of Twenty-fifth street and Sixth avenue. He was so much injured that officer Smith, of the Sixteenth ward, had to take him home. Canniace Acciornt.—Mrs. Eliza Hazleton, a Indy re siding at No. 122 Varick street, was violently thrown from a carriage in Greenwich street, at eight o'clock on ‘Wednerday eveving.

Police Intelligence. A CURIOUS CASE OF LARCENY—RKEMARKABLE TES~ TIMONY OF A WITNESS—TWO PARTIES IMPLI- CATED. Before Justice Stewart. On the 234 of June last, Edward Nathan. proprietor of a boot and shoe store, in tho Eighth avenue, was ar- rested, on the order of Justice Stewart, on suspicion of having stolen $190 in gold, the property of Mrs. Sarah Brwh. At that time Mrs, Brush set forth, in her affida- vit, that she went to the store of Mr. Nathan, and pur- chared a pair of shoes, for which she paid fifty cents ; and at that time rhe carried in her hand a pocket hand- kerchief, in which were tied up $190 in gold coin. This amount of money Mrs, Brush dee! she left acci- dentally in Mr. Nathan's store, and only missed it when she vielted @ dry goods store kept by Mr. Rowland J. Withers, No. 365 Bighth avenue. a short distance from the shoe store of Mr. Nathan Immediately om missing the money, she returned to the shoe store and asked for the handkerchief containing the itoney, which she in- formed the storekeeper was left by her in his store, In reply te the request, Mr. Nathan strongly denied the knowledge of any handkerchief or money us described. Mrs, Brush finding that no redress could te 4 and feeling confident in her own mind that she left the money in the said store, applied to the magistrate for aid in the matter. Justice Stewart took the complainant: @fidavit to the existing facts, and caused Mr, Nathan and bis wife to be brought before bim ; and on the taste and suspicious imstances surrounding the accuse. tion, the magistrate held Mr. Nathan to bail, to answer the charge, Within the last week, however, matters have taken quite another course—two other parties are charged with the larceny—and if such facts as are sworn to, which. ta th ves, are very extraordinary, Mr, Nathan must be ionucent of eer Fa one to him. It now appears. by an affidavit made before the mi te by one John Rursell, residing at No. 216 Sevent enue, ¥ho Wsifrdin eubstance as follows:—He is acquainted with ove George Sherman, who in June lart. was a clerk in the Gry goods store of Mr, Withers, No. 355 Eighth avenue; thet the complainant Mrs, Brush. came into the said etore and when he left he (Sherman) found she had for- ° ton her handkerchief, which upon examination he vund contained gold, Mr. Withers was absent from the ptore, and the im was placed aside until bis recurn oney On bis returo Mr Sherman handed the bandkerchief aud smoney vo Mr Withers, who remarked that he would lay it dock and « any owner came afterit, Seve Sherman ought not totreat him badly as hundred dollars into Bis pete ery cual. since.

The whole matter will under- go a further investigation. Suspicion of AIrson—vArrest of one of the Suspected Parties ~~ Officers 8. J. Smith and Elder. of the lower police, yesber- day, arrested a German, named Aaron Dimond. a cap ma- ker by trade, doing business at No 25 Roosevelt street, on suspicion of having been concerned, with his journey- man, named Josh, Teuscher, with wilfully setting fire to the room occupied by them, in the manufacture of caps, situated in the upper story of building, No, 25 Roosevel! street. The evidence sgainst the accused parties, consists of the affidavit, principally, of Mr. John Nally, who ocou- pet, with his family. apartments on the same floor where she fire ocurred. It seems, on Sunday night, between 11 and 12 o'clock, the Sth instant, Mr. Ni ound, awoke by the smeil of smoke, and, believing the house was on fre, he got up, and procured a light, and,on going into the entry. saw smoke coming from ‘the room occupied by the accused parties. Mr. Nally tried the door, but found it fart. He then looked into a dark bedroom, and there he found Teuscher on the bed, with all bis clothing cn except a coat; he was notasleep. De- ponent informed him about the smoke and fire in his room, to which Teusher replied. he * did not know any- thing about it." Mr, Nally got the key of the room door trom Teurcher. The alarm was then general through the houre, there being several otber families therein. The room door was opened. and with the assistance ot buckets of water, the fire was kept under until the firemen came with the hore. and extinguished it On examining the room after the fire, it evidently exhibited the work of an incendiary, asno less tban ten different places on the floer had been on fire, burning and charring the boards to the depth of nearly halfaninch. The onject now as- signed for the setting fire is said to be for the purpore of representing that some $300 worth of cap materials were destroyed or burned up, when in fact. and in truth, the property had been carried off previous to the fire and night in question. It is shown by other affidavits that on the Saturday previous to the fire, Dimond, who worked for J.D. Phillips & Co., No. 176 Water street, procured from that firm about $300 worth of cap materials, for the purpose of making up into caps; also, it isshown that it ts usual for Dimond and his journeyman to work on Sundays, but on this day neither of them were at work. It is further shown that onthe Sunday in question, about four o'clock in the morning, Mr, Simon Levi, re- siding at No. 83 Mulberry street, saw Dimond carrying a bundle. apparently containing, from appearances, cap materials, He was going along Mulberry street. from. the direction of Roosevelt etreet. After the fire, pieces of cotton, saturated with camphene, was found about the room. but no cap materials were found, and, at the time of the fire, Teucsher ran off, nor has he been found since. Dimond was not scen on the premises on the Sun night, but he is suspected of concerned with journeyman in the commission of the crime. The da after the fire, Mr. Betross, from the firm of Phillips Co., called on Dimond. and asked him about the cap ma- terials, when he repited he supposed they were burat up. Dimond was then requested to call down at the store of Phillips & Co., and make oath to that fact. Dimond consented to do so the next day, but did uot go. On Away KAN uOOnE gulled tomakenmy | Yours. thece facts, as sworn to Justice Bogart issued his warrant for the arrest of Dimond and Teuscher. The former the officers arrested; the latter has, it is believed, runaway. The magistrate committed Dimond to prison for further examination, Arrest of Burglars, Recovery of the Stolen Property, and the Arvest of the Receivers—On Sunday last, about the hour of 2 o'clock, officers Archer and King, of the Fifth ward. suceceded in capturing three young men, named Thomas, Williams, and McCarty, who were de- tected in the perpetration of a burglary at No. 90 North Moore street, since which time the rogues have been lodged in the Tombs. The perpetration of many bur- glaries were attributed to these young men, and great ex- ertions were made by the police to ferrit out the “ fence,”’ or, in other words, the person to whom the thieves had disposed of the stolen property, On Wednesday, the police made an arrest of another one of the gang, named William Sevier, alias Yellow Bill,” who, when under arrest, be- came alarmed, and divulged the cecrets of theconfederacy, by informing the police where the man lived to whom the stolen property had been sold. The , in accordance wih the information, proceeded to the premises, No, 118 Waiker street, and there, in one of the apartments, they found aGerman pedlar named Isaac Raffel. This was the man the police wanted, designated by the thieves ax the person to whom they sold the proceeds of the burg- laries; he (Raffel) knowing at the time he bought them, that the property had been stolen. Raffel was taken into custody, and his room searched by the officers, and in a a trunk, the key of which Raffel had in his pocket, the officers feund a lerge quantity of the stolen articles. In the first place the gold watch and chain stolen from a policeman, was found: also a gold watch, stolen from Dr. Vosse, No. 102 Leonard street; a silver watch, stolen from Mr. Edwards, No. 31 North Moore street; a quantity of silk handkerchiefs, the property of Charles Francis, No. 64 Broadway, whose store was bur- glariou:ly entered on the night of the 29th ot July. Articles urclaimed—for which owners are wanted—two fmsll gold lepine watches. white faces; one Ladies bracelet, one gold breast pin, one gold vest chain, white seal; together with many other articles too nuinerous to mention. All the above named ar- ticles were found in the pedlar’s trunk. They arenow at the police court, Tombs. where persons who have been robbed of articles bearing the above description are re- quested to call on Mr. Johnson, the Clerk of | Police, who will exbibit the property for their inspection. The pri- soner Raffel was committed to prison, on two distinct charges—one for buying stolen property. knowing the seme to be stolen, and the second (a burglary). having in his possession the silk handkerchiefs stolen from the store No. 64 Brondway, the said premises having been hurg- lariously entered, and the property stoley therefrom. Justice Bogart committed the accused *+, prison for trial, in default of $2 000 bail, require? in each case. «2 Piolent Assault—One *an Stabbed Seriousty.—On Tues- day evening, two men named William Matthews and Geo, Matthews. the latter the son of the former, were ar- rested Lg oe police, chat i with violently assaulting and beating Hugh Margran. Mergran, it seems, was standing at his own door, when the two Matthews came upto bim. One struck bim a blow, knocking him down ; they both then fell on him, and were beating him severely, when the complainant, to rave himself, drew his pocket knife and inflicted on the person of the younger Matthews five stabs, two near the abdomen. two in the arm, and one in the leg. The accused parties were conveyed before Jus- tice Welsh, who committed them to prison for trial. The Tables Turned.—VYeeterdoy, a man named Louis Keyser, was arrested by officer Martin, of the Sixth ward polloe on acharge preferred by one Sliwan Wiskowsky, who set forth that Keyser, about a year stole from the custody of deponent a quantity of cl and other articles, valued at near one thousand doilars, The case was heard before Alderman Barr. of the Sixth ward, act ting police justice for the day during the absence of Jus- tice Bogart and on the investigation it was shown by wit- nesses that the property swote to by Wiskowsky nevor belonged to him; that the oath taken by him was false and untrue. The magistrate thereupon dismiseed the charge against Keyser, and on the application of Keyser, committed Wiskowsky to prison on a charge of perjury. ‘The latter case will be heard before the court this day. Violent Assault ly a Female—A woman, named Jane Murray, was yesterday arrested by officer White, of the Fourth’ ward, charged with violently assaulting ‘Bridget Murphy. and striking her on the head with an earthen bowl, inflicting # severe and dangerous wound.

Since the above was written we learn that four spies from Providence, who came here as wit- nesses, were arrested on a warrant yesterday, for at- tempting to fire a pistol, and also for being concern- ed in creating a row. and violating the peace and dignity of the State. In a few words, the real temperance men, who are not fanatical, if they do Ee to injure their cause, had better keep their idence spies and witnesses at home; lot New- port people take care of their own affairs. Sixty barrels of liquors, valued at about $3,000, were seized at Fall River on Tuesday, under the | new liquor law. The proporty belonged to a Mr. Albro, and was stored upon his premises. Michael Duffy, who has for along time kept a groggery in Greenville, Warwick, was arrested last week on a chargo of violating the liquor law. When arrested he was suddenly taken sick—so sick that it was not thought safe to remove him. The officer left his sick chamber for a moment, and in his abeence the invalid jumped out of the window and has not been seen or heard of since. The three Jiquor warrants issued a few weeks by Justice Edwards, at Cambridge, Mass., which was sent to the Sheriff of the county, have been returned to the Justice who iseued them. Accompanying them was a letter in which the Sheriff says that he has taken legal advice upon the matter, and that he cannot serve them. Tho letter was very brief. The Railways. A brakesman, named Lawson, employed on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, fell from a train of cars on Monday night about ten o’clock, and was killed. He was not missed until the train reached Baltimore, and on Tuesday his body was found near the Point of Rocks, and brought to Sykesville, where he resided. Ground h:s been broken for the new railroad depot in Buffalo. It is to cover the site of the pre- sent depot, and is constructed jointly by the Syra- cuse and Rochester, the Rochester and Buffalo, and the Rochester, Lockport and Niagara Falls Railroads.

His unostentatious o} ys and his soundness of judgment, had made him a valued officer in many of our philanthropic organi- rations. He bad filled a soat in the Senate of the State as lately as 1850, when he was a leading member of that body. Miss Mary Duff, for a long period one ef the most accomplished actresses of the American stage, died in Memes Tenn , on Sunday last, and was buried wn Monday. She belonged to a family long emi- nent in the theatrical profession, and her profession- al ability fully suataihed ite fame. Horere Tracepy at Darren, GA.—Munver anp SUMMARY PunisuMENT.—A friend has shown us a private letter from Darion, Ga., dated on the 29th of July, which contains the details of a dread- ful tragedy recently enacted at that place. We are permitted to copy the following particulars:— “ There were five negroes—four men and one wo- man—bung in this place on the 26th, without wait- ing for the forms of law—the first instance of the kind that ever occurred here. These negroes mur- dered their master, James Houston, a planter, upon an island about three miles from the main land, about six weeks ago. Mr. Houston was a young unmarried man, of one-of the best families ia the State, and was the only white person on the island where he resided. On the day of the murder he had one of the women whipped for misconduct. About dark he laid down to sleep. The men took the op- ortunity, and seized him, strapped him, tied his tata behind him, and fastened him to a tree, with a chain about his neck--the woman holding a light during the whole time. They then, with a cow- skin, inflicted upon him a hundred lashes, he beg- ging for his life, and the woman crying out to them ‘give him more,’ while several other women, be- longing to the same plantation, were on their knees, leading for his life. They also beat him with a addle,’ cutting his head and face dreadfully. extemal by their exertions, they left their victim for several hours in this condition. At midnight they returned to their murderous work, and finished him with three blows of an axe upon the head. They then buried him ina marsh, turning his boat bottom side up, and setting his hat floating down the river, to create an impression that he was drowned; and such, for several days, was supposed tobe the case. Suspicions at length being excited that all was not right, inquiries were made, and the truth elicited. The five negroes were arrested, brought to town, committed to jail, anda meeting of the citizens called. There could be no action in this case by the regular courts until the last of No- vember ; and as the ne; are in this county about twenty to one white person, there was no knowing what effect the murder mi, ht have upon their minds before legal action cotfid bo had. It was therefore decided to be necessary that some- thing should be done at once. After several meet- ings, at which the matter was deliberately consider- ed, it was finally, on Saturday majority of the voters of the county being present—decided, by a vote of ninety to three, that the culprits be imme- diately tried. A jury was selected, the names of all present being put in a hat, and twelve drawn therefrom for that se. The trial proceeded, and the negroes were found guilty, and sentenced to be hung on the 26th, which sentence was fully car- ried into effect, as above stated. Each one confes- sed his guilt.”"—Boston Journal. Great Fioop axp Loss or Lirr.—A corres- pondent of the Lockport Journal, writing from Me- dina, New York, says that the heavy rains of Thurs- day night and Friday morning last, created a sudden and disastrous flood in that neighborhood. At Milville, @ small four miles from Medina, the flood was so sudden and unexpected as to resifit not only in the loss of considerable property, but cf human life. Mr. Thomas Oliver occupied @ wood house, near Fish Creek, a diminutive stream, the bed ot which had been dry for severai weeks previous to the rain. Early on the morning of Friday, he found that the rains of the previ- ous night had converted the dry creek ioto a furious river, rushing around his dwelling, threatening it with immediate destruction. Mr. O determined to escape with bis family while there was an opportunity, for the water Was till risivg. But while a portion of his family were endeavoring to rescue some articles of furniture, the houre was sturted from its toundatiops, and borne down stream, carrying with it Mrs. Oliver, Mrs. Bigelow and two of Mr. Ciiver’s sons, one fifteen, and the ether about eight years old. Mrs. Oliver was coon 1esened from her perilous situation. Mrs. Bigelow, in attempting to es- cape from the house, was caught in the current, and buried down the fuzious stream, imploring aid from the bystanders, but to no purpose, She was, Eowever, taken out about one hundred rods below, still alive. The house, still containing the two boys, soon lodged on a bar, but near the midale ot the stream, The elder of the two Inds succecded 1m swimming to a bridge a few rods below, and stood ready to rescue his little brother when he shculd fleat down within reach. But as the brave lad was about grasping the struggling object of his fraternal soliciude. the tottering bridge yielded to the furious beatings of the mad current, and fell into the stream; and the two brothers sank together, among timbers and rubbirh into the seething river. Human arms were stretched forth to save them, but they were too short. Neither of the bodies have yet been recovered, though the neighborhood have made diligent search. The flood is said to exceed anything ever before known in this coun- ty. Fora time the whole face of the country seemed de ted over with water; and, in some instances. covered the first floors of dwellings. — EXTENSIVE CoNFLAGRATION.—At two o’clock, P.M.,on Saturday, a fire broke out on Prospect street, between Washington and Elm. The fire Was communicated from an out oven to the stable of Mr. James Cunningham, and from thence to the neighboring buildings. Before the conflagration was checked, it had destroyed twenty-one houses, occupied by about thirty-five families, and covering nearly the entire square between Elm and Washing- ton streets. The population of this district princi- pally consisted of laborers, having no resources. ex- cept their day wages. The ground over which the conflagration swept, belongs to the heirsof Harmer Denny ; the buildings were principally owned by those who occupied them, the leases laving three ears more torun. Messrs. John Cunningham, John Nolan, Samuel McKee, John McFall, —— Dalzell, and Mrs. Harper, are among those who owned the property. The loss will not exceed seven thousand dollars, and probably will not fall far short of that sum. There was no insurance except on one or two of the buildings.— Pitsburg paper. Fiewt WITH 14x INDI A letter from Santa Fe, dated June 27th, giv account of a severe fight with the Apache Indians, about forty-five nules from Coriletias. About sixty savages attacked a party of four persons, one of whom was wounded on the first charge, and the Indians succeeded in runving off their mules. In the endeavor to save their companion from the scalping knife, two more of the party were wounded. Night coming on, the Indians retired, leaving the four persens, three of whom were wounded, in posession of a small mound. in (he norning the Tiidlans renewed theattack, but at overy charge they met with @ well directed fire from the little hand with Colt's revolvers, which bad a terrible efiect. In this manner, another day was spent, and during the second night the party ged to make their escape, and sneceeded in reaching El Paso.

MONEY MARKET. ‘Tavaspay, August 12-6 P M. ‘There is nothing new in the stock market to-day, ex- cept a little more buoyenucy in some of the smaller class of famcies just previous to any speculative movement. ‘These emall stocks become active, and advance several per cent before the larger stocks move at all. This gives them a better chance, and gives all a fair chance for a good start. This activity among the low-priced securi- ties, iss favorable indication, and we have no doubt the larger ones will soon follow, It is easier to move a Little thing than a great one ; and thus speoulaters of limited means realise handsome profits on a moderate outlay of capital, which gives them strength and confidencoenough to take hold of operations of more magnitude, If small speculators would confine themseives to small operations in small stocks, they would make money, and meet with fewer reverses. In dealing in low priced, depreciated stocka, it matters not £o muoh whether they ere really good for anything or not—there isa small margin for losses, If they go entirely out of sight, tho loss is only about two, three, or, perhaps, five per cent, and several hundred shares can be carried for one thousand dollars, This, a8 a general thing, would cover the whole loss, while the advance has not such a limited margin, A small stock may go up two and three hundred per cent, while it cam only fall one hundred. A small advance paysa large per cent profit—perhaps five to ten times the interest on the money invested in any other way. ‘The inducements to operate in these stocks are, there- fore, very great, and there is very little danger of any one being ruined by speculating in them, for a rise, to a moderate extent, At the first board Delaware and Hudson advanced 14 per cent; North American Trust, 34; Nicaragua, 4; Canton Company. 34; Florence and Keyport, 3¢; Erie Railroad, 1; Harlem, 34; Stonington, 14; Long Island, 44. There was a small sale of St. Lawrence Mining Com: pany at 134; at the close one and three-quarters was of fered and two arked. Four was offered for Montgomery Mining, and four and one-quarter asked. There was no transactions in Ulster. As soon as speculation commen- ces, there will be, without doubt, considerable activity in all mining stocks, North American Trust fluctuates largely from day to day. A few days ago it was selling at ten per cent, soon after it went up to nineteen, then down to fourteen, now up again to twenty and three quarters, Next week it may be down to ten again. or up to thirty. It is a dangerous stock to touch in any way, either as buyer orseller. Harlem is steadily improving. It is about time. Without doubt it is the cheapest railroad stock on the list. It is the opinion in the street.outside of the bear cliques, that it;will reach elghty per cent, within the next ninety days. This is not extravagant, for itsin- trinsic value is at least ten per cent above that price. We notice sales of Florence and Keyport on time, buyers op. tion, to some extent. This looks as though the bears had opened their batteries upon it. In other stocks there is no new feature. ‘The sales of city bonds to-day, at the Exchange, was not very successful. Of the $55,000 city of Memphis six per cent bonds, but $40,000 were sold, averaging 80.2214 per cent. The $22,000 City of Sandusky seven por cent bonds, were all sold at an average of 81.41 percent. Of the $12,000 township of Huron, Ohio, seven per cent bonds, only $3,000 were sold, at an average of 78.662; per cent. These bonds were of a different character to those our capitalists have been in the habit of dealing in. They do not seem to understand their merits 60 well as railroad bonds. * The sales of bonds of the Buffalo and New York City Railroad Company has been postponed to the 10th of September. This is a good move. It is too early now to put railroad bonds on the market. ‘The earnings of the Southern Michigan and Northern Indiana Railroad Company, for July last, amounted to $73,839 98, of which $50,672 42 was from passengers and mail, and $23,167 56 from freight. This is, we believe, largely in excess of the conipany’s estimate.

The yield will pro- bably be above an average. In financial affairs there had been no important change. The most interesting and favorable feature in the reports of the Bank of England was the increase going on in the department of issue, The augmentation of bullion still continues, For along time after the amount of bullion in the bank had reached a larger sum than was before known, the circulation re- mained almost stationary, Lately, the policy of the di- rection has been changed, and the probability is that the large amount of renewed notes will be put out as fast as possible. ‘The returns of the circulation of tho Irish and Scotch banks, for the four weeks ending the 10th of July last, when added together, give the following ns the average weekly circulation of these banks during the month, Vin im Average circulation of the Irish banks, Average circulation of the Scotch banks, £4,406,173 338,295 Average weekly clroulation.

The following account of the lead.and other mineral resources of the Western States, we tuke from the Bt. Louis Republican. The demand for lead, it is said, more than equals the fupply, notwithstanding the new and extensive discover- ies here, nearthe eastern market. Until very recently, and up to the discovery of mines in Pennsylvania. Illinois was ost the only source of ead. in the United States. The smount of lead shipped from Galena, and other porte, annually, is about 42 000.000 pounds. according to the register kept in the city of Galena. This amount would be, at $4 percwt.—the price there—worth $1,780,000, The number of miners actually at work does not exceed 2,000, which would show an average production of $808 for cach mam. Now deduct $90 for cost of working and +melting the mineral, and we have the large average pro- duction of $800—an amount of prosperity indicated of which no other country can boast. The load business, which. for a few years past, has been declining, is daily become Ro active. and confidence in the mineral re- sources of the country is continually incrcasing. Notone acre in one hundred, of the mineral lands of Mie nois, bas been scratched with the pick or spade, and all the leads (lodes) heretofore worked, lie within a few feet of the surface, Beneath the water, there is every reason to believe, far more extem- sive deposits lie, yet to be explored, when the necessary capital shall be invested in machinery for raising the wa- ter. Itis currently reported that mineral has been dis- covered beneath the sand rock which underiles the lead bearing limestone hitherto worked If this be ao, the mines must rival those of Cornwall in depth and extent. Whether this be £0 or not, one thing is certain. and that is, the fact that all the lead raised uy has been raised from very small patches of ground, while the land for miles adj lies in its native beauty, un- touched. Some of the largest lodes have veen at immediately upon the surface. and most of them within a few feet. Lead is not the only valuable mineral found there. The most productive ores of zinc and ¢ . the sulpburet and carbonate of zinc, and the sul, of copper, everywhere abound. Wherever exploration for lead has been made, more or less of these metals has been. discovered. Thousands of tons of zinc lie upon the sur- face, for the very good reason that it interferes with the working of lead mines, and is neglected, because, in the absence of coal, it cannot yet be profitably smelted. It is popularly known there as ay Bones and Black Jack. Sulpbate of iron is found there in sheets of extent, ranging froma few inches:to several feet in thickness.
