From the Chicago Democrat, Feb. 10.) Yesterday, there was quite an excitement in Clarke street, in consequence of the arrest of the entire corpa connected with the Bank of Chicago—includ- ing the mediums. They were arrested on the com tt of John M. Holines of an attempt to intimi- te him by personal violence. Their names are John Drysdell, Charles Herrick, Mrs. Herrick, Am- brose Smith, Joseph M. Arnold, Henry Pilgri ‘ Mrs. Sarah Smith, and Mrs. Ryerson. They were brought before Judge Rucker. Grant Cookie, Esq., apy ing for the conservator of Mr. Eddy, demanded t ey should be bound over to | aa the peace towards Mr. Holmes and all good zens. ‘The testimony was as follows :— Jobn M. Holmes, examined by Grant Goodrich, Esq.—-Has been in Bank of Chicago; knows the defendants; knows Ira B. Eddy; said Eddy threat- ened him; had pistol in his hand; did not see the | pistol loaded then; saw it loaded afterwards; Arnold was loading the pistol; Drysdell stood by; spoke to | Arnold, him not to ps any ball in; A. said it would not do to shoot with unless a ball was in it; it ‘was a six-shooter; several of the defendants were bresent; business of the bank was conducted under The superintendence of George Washington, Alexan- der Hamilton, &c.; it was necessary to consult them when anything was to be done. Accordingly, by command of the spirits, Mr. Eddy demanded the keys of Mr. Holmes; was directed by the conservitor ot the property not to give up the keys; the object of the pistol was for Eddy to defend himself with, | should any person attempt to obtain possession of the bank, and in this he was backed by the de- fendants; Mr. Eddy was altogether under the in- fluence of the mediums, did everything by their direc- tion, even to the smallest particular; last evening communications were received from the spirits. Mr. Drysdell then said Eddy was acting under the influence of Alexander Hamilton, and told him to defend the bank; Eddy said he should defend his po- sition—the position was to resist the officers of the | law, who were about to take possession in the name of the conservator of the property; was not afraid to he left in charge of the bank while Eddy was there, and only lly while the mediums were there; Eddy told him he was a traitor, and the mediums told him to leave the bank; there had been a dis- turbance at the bank; in the past few days large crowds had been assembled, sometimes extendin, across the street to the post office; the spirits di- rected that no bills should be redeemed for those who used tobacco; Mrs. Herrick stood at,the counter, and told for whom bills should be redeemed, and for | whom not; if they had segars, Mrs. H. would tell | them they were filthy creatures; in one instancg she | pulled a segar from a young gentleman’s mouth; | she used coarse lan, fe in many instances; Mrs. | Hi. would tell who were honest, and who were not, | aid Mr. Eddy would act under her direction; had | " }cen at the bank but once to-day. | Mr. Drysdell cross-examined ‘the witness; asking sim if he wrote a certain communication from the | ; (not permitted;) when witness saw Arnold | he pistol he wes sitting on the settee; Drys- | ‘twas right to kill a person. | 's- Herrick cross-examined the witness- ve. Ryerson cross-examined the witness; witness sot see Mrs. R. at the bank for a week till last ’ the Court:—The ns present were in the oyment of Mr. Eddy; some were employed as keepers, some to keep the peace. Mrs. Herrick s engaged sometimes at the bank counter and netimes in receiving communications from the qi Mrs. Ryerson not been engaged in the t in the day time; Mr. Herrick and Mr. Smith y ve door Keepers; Mr. peek was emplowed in te bank, in what position he does not know; Mr. FP igrim was employed by Eddy to defend the bank. Mr. Egbert Haight examined—Saw Mr. Eddy and Mr. Pilgrim at Mr. Dominick’s; Mr. Eddy asked for a six-shooter; Pilgrim remarked that Allen's pistols were the best for quick work; could fire them quicker than Colt’s; the pistol was loaned to Mr. Eddy. Mr. Jos. M. Arnold came in afterwards and pur- | powder; saw the pistol since, and drew the charges; was loaded with six bullets and powder. lugunin examined—Was in the Bank of Chicago this morning to have three dollars redeemed; was treated politely, and bills were re- deemed; went in afterwards with more bills; a wo- man, Mrs. Herrick, sitting at the counter, refused to redeem; Mr. Eddy also refused; some one behind the | counter said he had better leave the bank,as he in- Aerfered with business; Herrick stepped up and said he had better leave the bank; he turnedto go, and Herrick was standing there, and told him to go it the back door, and collaring him, pushed him way; a man, whom he does not know, took him and led him out the back door; thinks It oer ‘ordered thei to put him out the bach Mrs. Elizabeth Burton, sister of Mr. Eddy, exa- | ‘mined—Has been in the Bank; Mrs. Herirck has an | InBuence over her brother; he gets communications Sup her; thinks Mrs. H. was the person iniilu- him 25S the 1; heard her saying he a inks ee money he got to-day; Mr. got into a room up stairs by a ‘window: Dy wan with him; theyjgat down from this room into the safe and got the mo- ; it was given to ;_ there was a consider- amount of gold, silver and bills; Pilgrim took it the back door; witness followed him two streets; towards ph street bridge; heard (the defendants,) say that Mr. Eddy had been declared insane, but that God defend them; Mrs. Herrick saw the pistol.

Mr. Goodrich then read the commission of lunacy, by which Devotion C. Eddy was appointed conser- vator of the estate of Ira B. Bad: . D. C. Eddy, examined, conservator of his brother's estate—The ora ea knew he wasuch; notified Mr. Holmes, book-keeper, that he was conservator. Grant Goodrich, Esq., moved that the defendants, except Mrs. Ryerson, be bound over. He urged his motion in an able speech, in which he spoke of the bad influence of their spiritual manifestations; that they should be stopped if possible; that all that could be done, should be, and that the high priestess especi- ally, should be deprived of her infuanes over her victims. (At this part of the speech Mrs. Herrick @xnibited symptoms of the spiritual influence, and masie several demonstrations towards interrupting | comedy of * Mone; | will be brought forward at each entertainment. on the Sth instant, that eR EE first parents, before they sewed the the fg leaves for Lngerpie pre degen ita & seized him and put a stop to further ceedings in that direction. Paine evidently though’ if he could only reduce himself to a state of nature, the Sheriff would not have the audacity to take him through the public streets. Having refused to walk to the jail, it was found necessary to carry him bodily, which was very quietly done. TELEGRAPHIC, Curcaco, Feb. 15, 1853. A number of persons connected with “ spiritual?’ circles have been indicted for riot, growing out of the ex- citement at Paine’s link, Mr. Paine continues in a raving condition. ‘Theatrical and Musical, Bowrry Tueatae,—ihe called *Ivanhoe,’! which has been produced at this thea tre in splendid style, and w hich is drawing very large au dionces every night, will commence the entertainments— Mr. E.

Mad. Sontag’s Lucia is a masterpiece of acting and vocalization; in each act she was greeted with the warmest demonstrations of pleasure. She will be assisted by Signor Badiali, whose deep and melodious voice is admired by every one. No doubt the theatre will be crowded ihis evening: Bertoy’s TuTkaTRE—This establishment continues in a carcer of great success. Douglas Jerrold’s new comedy of ‘St. Cupid’ will commence the entertainments ; Messrs. Fisher, Burton, Johnston, and Mrs. Skerrett in the leading characters.

Nanonat. Tasatee.—The manager of this prosperous establishment is as active as ever in producing novelties for his patrons, and he is well repaid by the presence of | large audiences.

It is hoped his friends will rally, and give him a bumper. Mapame Sontac’s Coxcert 1¢ PLapELPmia.—The Phila- delphia Pennsylvanian says:—We had the pleasure of attending the ope concert, at Watson's beautiful Concert hall, on Saturday evening last. The artists en- to perform on this occasion, acquitted themselves _ gaged in their usual admirable manner. Sontag sang in her sweetest manner, drawing out from the admiring audience the most rapturous be ge cel rire when she sang the enchanting ttle song, “Within mile of Edin. burgh town,’’ which was the bright gem of the evening. The little prodigy, Paul Julien, p every body ; the sweet notes which he drew out from the violin, elicited universal approbation. Signor Roceo, Badiali, Gasparoni, Arneldi, and the orchestra, under the direction of Carl Eckert, were all that could be expected. As it rds the Hall, we must confess that we were somewhat disap- poinfed. In finish, ventilation and comfort, it is all that can be desired, but in peint of size and sound, it is infe- rior to the Musical Fund Hall. We were led to believe it would hold 2,500 persons, but we think it will not hold more than 1,600. It is, however, a beautiful, commo- dious room. and much needed in the part of the city where it is located. If the coneert on Saturday evening, is on earnest of the future, the concerts held at this place, if properly gotten up, will be well patronized. | Mrs. Catherine N. Sinclair has concluded her eugage- | ment at Albany, amd was to start immediately for Buffalo. At the clore of the play, on the last night of Mrs. 8. at the Albany Museum, she was enthusisst ay called for, and being led before the curtain by Mr. Canoll, made the following neat and appropriate speech, which was received with prolonged applause:—" Ladies and Gentlemen—In obeying your kind summons this evening. 1 cannot refrain from Ao ke ‘ing my gratitude for the flattering reception you given me—my first pro fessional visit to this, the capital of the State, of which claim the honor to be an adopted citizen.

He dweit on the fact of the evidence of their cunning and me ong in advising Mr. Eddy that if he killed any person he could not be held accountable, as he had been declared insane by law. He enforced his . points in a lengthy speech, which, of course, we are unable to give. He excluded Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and Mrs. Ryerson, from eg raat in the pro- ceedings ofthe other defendants. Mr. Drysdell wished to address the court; claimed & be a communist; said Mr. Paine was of his mind; and was going into a personal history of himeelf and his opinions, when he was stopped by the Court, who wished to confine him to tue point at iasue.

In addition to all this, the estimated amount of the salaries, there being from sixty to eighty performers —a large pane of whom will be in the receipt of enormous terms—together with printing, and all in- cidental expenses, is $1,000 per day; thus, it will be seen, that something of no ordinary magnitude is to | be expected.

DgaTH FROM INJURIES RECEIVED IN AN Arrray.—Mr. Eng- lish, keeper of the Livingston House, in Atlantic street, died on Sunday, as alleged from injuries sustained in an affray some ten days since. It seems that three young men entered his bar room, and commenced abusing an oldman named Churchill, sitting there at the time. Mr. English interfered in favor of the old man, when the others fell foul of him, and one of them struck him on the | head with a cane, fracturing his scull. Mr. English has been delirious most of the time since the assault, and on Sunday night he expired.

Parker Vein advanced 1 per cent. Phoenix Coal closed at an improvement of 1} per cent from the opening. The market, as a whole, looks weak, and the disposition to purchase for a rise is daily becoming weaker. Shrewd, cautious opera- tors, are afraid of the ides of March. Many have reason to remember them, and there is a sort of | superstitious feeling in regard to that period of the year. The tendency of this is to restrict transactions, and to bring about a concentration of resources. There are decided indications of a great and sudden | increase in the exportation of specie. The recent stiffening in the market for foreign exchange, the immense weekly importations of foreign manu- factures, their excess in value, compared with | the corresponding period last year, all point to a | More active drain of precious metals from the vaults | of our banks. The movements recently made iu the | financial circles of England and the Continent, the advance in the rate of interest by the Bank of Eng- land—the immense shipments of bullion from Lon- | don to Australia, St. Petersburg, and other places— the reduction of bullion in the bank, and the dispo- sition manifested by English capitalists generally to place severe restrictions upon speculation—all point to more stringent times in the money markets of the world, and a more healthy state of things in _ financial affairs generally. The effect of more caution among financiers and speculators would be to con” _ tract prices for all kinds of property; and it must be admitted by all that it is certainly time to prevent the inflation exceeding present limits. It is true that property generally is mot so enormously ex- panded in market value as in times past, but some kinds of property have reached points which threaten sudden collapses. Real estate has really reached a dangerous position, so far as prices are concerned, in the market. There must be a tumble soon, if something is not done to arrest the speculative Movements now going on. In merchandise gene- rally a more moderate state of things exists. There is no speculation of importance in any of the leading sta- ple articles of trade, and no movement out of the re- gular routine. In stocks, speculation has been quite active, but it has been confined to a certain class of stocks of recent date, of uncertain value, presentand prospective, and prices have become unwarrantably inflated. There is now a lull in the market, and the probability is that the securities referred to will grad- ually, but ultimately, settle down to their proper level. The only thing we have to fear much at pre- sent, is the result of the real estate mania of the day. Any sudden collapse in that—any sudden break down in prices—would have a very unfavorable effect upon the entire community, as it would spread the seeds of donbt and distrust broadcast throughout the country. Speculations in real estate in 1835 and 1836, were the direct cause of the convulsion or revulsion in 1837, and all the evils whieh followed that explosion. At the second board the market continued de- pressed. Two new stocks—the Llangolan Mining Compauy and the North Carolina Coal Company— were presented for public favor anda smal! lot of each was sold. Both are bituminous coal stocks. Parker Vein advanced 2) per cent; Nicaragua Transit, 4. Sixth Avenue Railroad declined 2 per cent; Morris Canal, }; Reading Railroad, 4; Erie Bonds, 1871, 4; Erie Railroad, J.

Or, for the whole distance, 93 miles, $35, | This road extends from what is called the base of | the Broad Mountain, where it connects with the | Little Schuylkill, to Williamsport—a distance of eighty miles—with a branch from Tamanend, near the | Little Schuylkill connection, to the Beaver Meadow Railroad—a distance of thirteen miles—with the | | right to construct branches to coal mines on either | side of the line, not exceeding five miles in length. | At Williamsport this road has two very valuable con- | nections—one with the Williamsport and Elmira | road, now under contract, uniting it with the New | | York and Erie road, and all its chain of Northern | and Western connections ; and the other with the | Sunbury and Erie road, making it an important link | na new and shortest great trunk line between the | West and tidewater. It is believed that the connec- | tion of this road with Elmira, by the Williamsport and Elmira Railroad, will add very largely to its traffic. By this route from Niagara Falls to Phila- delphia is but 414 miles, whereas, by Albany and | | New York it is 558, saving 144 miles of travel by | this route. From Elmira, by the New York and | Brie Railroad, the distance to New York is 274 | miles, add to this the distance to Philadelphia, | | ninety miles, makes 364 from Elmira to Philadelphia, | | whereas, by this route, it will be but 255, saving 109 | | miles, and bringing Elmira nineteen miles nearer | Philadelphia, by this route, than via New York by the New York and Erie. | A glance at the map will show that this route is | the shortest between Lake Erie and New York, and | the figures prove it :— | | Cleveland to New York, via Albany. Via Dunkirk... . . “ | Via Erie and Williamsport re 532 | The grades on this line are as favorable asthose by | the Buffalo and Albany route, and more so than by | | the Erie road. There seems to be no good reason that a fair proportion of the through traffic should | not seek thisavenue between the West and the At- lantic. The road is a link in a very important chain | connecting the West with the Bast, intermediate between the Erie and the Pennsylvania Central, and | running through a rich country, at present without railroad facilities. To the western end of this chain, Philadelphia has just voted a subscription of two millions of dollars, which secures its completion, and gives the Catawissa and Williamsport road a connec- tion with Erie,on Lake Erie, and thus withtheentire | j network of roads covering Ohio, Illinois and Indiana. | At the eastern end, the Little Schuylkill and Reading roads give the Catawissa and Williamsport a connec- | tion with Philadelphia, and the Lehigh Valley | and New Jersey Central roads, via Easton, a connec- | tion with New Vork It is claimed for this line that it will have the ad- vantage over any of the present lines in distance, and over most, if not all of them, in grades—that it has | the advantage of the best harbor on the south shore of Lake Erie—that it has the advantage in local trade;—not: that the establishment of all or any of these propositions is necessary to prove the produc- tiveness of this line of road; for we hold that ano- | ther road, equal, or nearly equal, in advantages, to | on a reasonable cost, at once, with a certain prospest of increase. Looking upon the map, it will be seen that the ave- rage distance between the Buffalo and Albany and | the New York and Erie, is about 70 miles; betwoen | | Staves. $84 N. stores, bid | Flour, bbls. 1,500 Corn, bush.,.6,636 6,000 Total... +++.

The lest annual report ef the Canal Commissioners of Pennsylvania shows a. steady increase in revenue since 1342. The construction of new lines of travel has had no visible effect, of an unfavoradle nature, upon the traflic operations of the State canals and railroads. It is true competition from those sources has compelled the commissioners to moke very con- siderable reductions ia the rates of toll, but the re- suls has shown that a low tariff of tolls is the proper financial system to observe in the management of works of internal improvement. The annexed ex- ibit of the gross amount of revenue derived from the public works of Pennsylvania, ia each of the past ten years, justifies this conclusion Pwsiw WORKS OF PRYNSYLVANIA—GyOse Revi «1,196,979 45 5,404 76 was nearly equal to the gross revenne in 1843—an increase in a period of less than ten years. The actual cost of the puldic works of Pennsylvania is 2 307 34. The net income is, therefore, equal to4 per cent ov the cost of construction. The result, the commJerioners say, compares favorably with any of the large works of internal improve | ments in Penmaylvania controlled and managed by private comganies, and inspires a confidence “hat the day is not far distant when all doubts as to these lines becoming a profitable investment, will ve entirely rem‘ved.
