The political, by itself, with tne exception ef the Rasso-Turkish question, is as dull as it could be, and [ am bound to say, as a faithfal reporter, that the pleasures of the French Emperor have also ex- perienced the same dullness, At Satory the enthu- siasm of the troops was so small that the generals aud efficers knew not how to face at the Imperial couple. At St. Germain the game- keeper had so badly concentrated the hares, pheasants and partridges, that the Emperor only Killed seven birds. And last, at the opera, where the Emperor and his wife appeared on the’ ‘opening ight, the singing was so wretched that the manager thought that his last days had come. On the whole, the last fortnight has not been very pleasing to Louis | Napeleon. It is decided that the Emprees will follow her hus- band in his tour in the northern departments. They both left Paris this morning, en rowte for ,Arras and Lille, and will return on the last of the month. | ‘The emperor leaves Paris with much reluctance, and, if it had not been for the preparations made in all the cities where he is expested, he would have postponed the excursion to another epoch. All the ministers are taking their vacations, each in their turn, whilst one of them is super'ntending the ministry of his colleague, during his absence. M. de Persigny has been absent for two weeks, M. Drouin de L’Huys, the Minister of Foreiga Affairs, left Paris suddenly, without any appareut cause. It was whispered im certain quarters, that this diplo- mat had crossed the Channel to g» himself to Lon- don, to settle the difficulties with Russia and Turkey. ‘This ramor was #0 anomalous, that no one thought it was true. In fact, how vould it be possi- ble that a minister had taken upon himself the place efan ambassador? We know it now, as a positive fact, that M. Drouin de L’Huys, who is vielently suf- fering from a disease of the eyes, has gone to hia ountry house to take some repose during one er two weeks. M. Portoul, the Minister ef Public In- struction, has also left his hotel for the same length of time, and he is replaced by M. Ducor, Minister of the Navy. ‘The the grain and flour question is still the ob. ¢ of much animation, though the price of bread not augmented ia Paris, owing to the measures taken by government, aud the difference of the | rome by the Common Council to the bakers. fevertheless, the arrival of flour and grain has nut ebanged the position, and in several other neighbor- Lof Finance had been suthorised img cities, as in Versailles, Rouen, aad Orleaus, the twe pounds of bread cost 95 centimes, (19 cents.) In 1647, she city of Paris was indebted, for the same | eause, in the enormous sum of 9,024,699 francs, (about 26,900 Iranes a day,) to give food tu abvut 400,000 ons. But now that there are one milion, four red and twenty two thousand inhabitants to be fed a day ut six centimes for a pouad of bread, the expenres are 42,660 francs a day; aad if this differ. ence was paid for a long time, the debs of 1853 would soem become larger thau that of 1847. ‘Toe Mauici- pal Council of la Seine bas decreed that tne price of | eight ceuts, (forty centimes,) for the kilogramme of bread, would be considered as the maxinum ce. The workmen-of the departments where ihe price of ninety five centimes is existing, are in the Utmost despair, owing to their inability to pro- cure @ cient quantity of bread for their fa- milies. eir wages had not been increased in consequence of the high price of bread, and the wages are so wall that if a man has a wife and three ctuid- ren, be is entuely unable to give them a living by his working. How long will such a state of thiigs last? ‘Phat is the Gordian knot, aud it is difficuls to sever it without letting leose ull the reins of the Boverpmeat. ‘The loan «f theenormous sum of one hundred mil- Boxe to the Bank of France, is still spoken of at the Bourse, and it sryent that, thouzh the government has not rendei the fact public, aud no decree * has been published on this oc -asion, the transaction will take place without much difficulty.

All the troops there will return to their garrisons for the winwr, and it is said that next spring the camp will again be renew- ed. We have eeveral grand military displays: the last two weeks there, anda general review + was made on Tuerday last by the Kuperor, who on that occasien delivered a speech, which bas crea'ed much ceusation, and appears to be a sort of public manifesto of Napoleon’s opinions, projects, and views. At this moment, when Kurope is ou the eve of taking uparms, when the military organization fe increased all over the Continent, waen the strate- gie movements on the land end un the sea are ex- @ting the attention of all -bellizerent people, after the display of reviews at Vienna, Chobuan, Bpithead, Olmutz, Bessika, and other places, it is smpossibie not to remark the seutence of Leuis Napoleon’s speech rendering homage ‘as Jol as peace important to the good sentiments which exist between France and for- eign nations, owing to which as long as polic dees not change them into evemies the foreign sol- @iers are accepted and received as comrades and brothers.’ { wish also to call attention to these words:— “Iu difficult umes what has Supported an empire if nota congregation of troops.” [ would a'so wen- tion there worde:—‘In the time of peace, it is geue- ray observed that egotiam and interest have the Boe weaken everything.” Such words ave an mense weight, particularly when uttered by the ehief of the State. I have only thought necessary to _ direct to them the serious attention of the political men who may peruse my letters. Much scandal is entertained here, owing to the Mysterious disappearance of Mr. far Ney, the grand ver.ewr of the Emperor, wh», sinee Thurad: evening last, is missing from bis quarters. It hi | been reported that he had committed suicide, but I am told that he died from an attack of apoplexy @ eopgestion or the brain, In Spain pening of the Cortes is said to take oe en the 15th of October next. Muoh difficulty expected from the Ministry and the Chamber, for the opposition is decided not to make any convession to the demand to place under accusation the mit of Bravo Muriilo—he accusation ot the Count of Al- , Felating to the decree of the property of the Prince of the Peace—the contempt made of the con- stitution, as often as the public funds or the affairs of mate have been managed—and last, upon the eleo- tions which have been illegally made under the lust ministry.

In ' eee eee the meantime the different envoys of France, Eng- ind, Austria and Prassia, who made the proposi- tion to the Porte, in bebalf of Russia, are still assem bled. The Count of Bug} has declared that M. de Bruck had the most ve orders to use all the means to obtain the ratification by Turkey of the first roposition of Russia. All the d-plomats have united b orce Abdul edie to sign the treaty. At Conrtaptinople the excitement is extreme, and rowors of war are quite alarming. The Minister yy the Suitan to borrew the sum of 48 000,000 piastres, (twelve mil- lions of francs,) to be ready for all events. The meeting of Nicholas and Francis of Austria at the eamp of Olmutz is causing much aoxiety in the diplomatic circles. It appears that all the grand public officers and military chiefs of Russia, Austria and Prussia—not to mention those of the other kingdoms and dutchies of the Germanic confedera- tion—will meet at Olmotz. Louis Napoleon sends there General de Goyou, his aid-4e-camp, and Colonel de Chenalesttre. Emperor Nicholas who has left St_ Petersburg, was to arrive at Olmutz on the 23d instant. Apropos of Nicholas, it y ge that he bas recently added to his titles that of “Sovereign fearing God.” The Empress and her children Nare also added the same epithet to their names, which bas thus been printed in the almanac of Gottsa. s E Mr. Jackson, the Charge d’ Affaires of the United States to Austria, and his Secretary of Legation, Mr. Davenport, left Vienna on the 17th ot Septem- ber to meet the Emperor of Austria at Olmats. Kossuth it appeears, has asked the Turkish govern- ment permission to return either to Kutaya or to some other place in its dominions; but I am told that the Sultan refused to receive this troublesome individual. The recovery of the Hungarian roral jewels has created a very satisfactory feeling in Hungary, for it Tay be said ‘that thege precious ornaments are con- sidered by the Mi as the palladium of their country. The people to whom these royal ensigns have been exhibited bave manifested an enthusiasm which bad never been felt before. A magnificent illumination to: k place on the 10th of September at Pesth.

The weather which we enjoy in Paris has been 80 delightful for the last two weeks that it is indeed quite a pity to be obliged to remain in this dull city, which, at this present moment, resembles a body without soul—a corpse, in one word. I declare that I would give everything to be absent from my quar- ters, if it were possible to do a0. I cannot under- stand how a person who is not forced to dwell in this inhabited desert is fool enough to do it;.qnd those who have no business of any kind—those who are idle— must have pewerful minds to support the dull. ness of their life. The hotels are deserted—the pub- lic places of amusement are a8 devoid of souls as the Battery at five o’elock in the morning; and the bright sun and glittering moon are both, each at their hour, illuminating this solitude. As long aa this fine*wea- | teer and delightful temperature will last, those who | are out of Paris, at the watering places, or in their | country houses, will rewain there. But as soon as | the frost will be felt all these runaway birds will come buck to their winter quarters. | Whilst we are visited by this fine weather, the most violent storm raged on the 17th inst. over the city of Lyovs. The water poured down as if from the top of the Niagara Fails,and the streets end places were like rivers and cauals. Much damage has been done to the houses and monuments, and | the loss is calculated to amount to more than a mil lion of francs. In Paris the greatest regret had been felt, a few days since, o» receiving the news of a terrible acsi dent which took place oa the Bordeaux railway ou the 18th inst., (Sunday last,) at 4 o'clock, A.M. The mail train had met with a merchandise train at a curve of the railway, situated at St. Benoist. Nearly all the cars of the merchandise train were smashed to pieces, whilst tae passenger cars were thrown off the rails in ail directions, btoken and damaged. Five persons were killed on the spot, and upwards * one hundred were more or less dangerously wou. * The sight of this horrible mountain of broken ca:., engines, passengers, and goods of all kinds, was 1n- deed horrible; avd I have been told by a gentleman oe arrived from the scene ¢f the disaster, who had, iy & mere chance, escaped an immediate death, that never had such ## accident oceured in sny eouatry. The gevernment immediately ordered that a wevere scrutinons inquiry be made about the affair, and no doubt the direction will have much to pay to get rid of this iucrimination. is said shat this fa- tal collision between the two trains happened through the neglect of the local udwinistration. The cholera is kuocking at our dvors, and I am told that several caves bave already been met by our doctors in the hospitale and the city. There shoa'd be no wonder at this, for the dreaded disease now appears in several pars of London. At Stockholm the cholera is still counting many deaths. There bave deen, during the last three weeks, 2.372 cases aud 1,288 deaths. At Rotterdam, Holland, during the 12tb, 15th and 14th inst., fifty-ene cases were noticed ard twenty-seven deaths wok place. The distribution of diplomas to the pupils of the schools of arte and manufactures took place last week, and agiong the names of the graduates | take mnch pleasure in notictog that of Mr. Parrish. of New York, who ontuived a certificate of capacity in the any of metallurgy. The regilding of the dome of the Invalids is de- cidedly ordered. It will be the third time that this monument has been regilt; the last time it was under the reign of Charles x; the exvenses amount. ed to 1,000,000 france. This time it will be eompleted for the paitry sum of 300,000 francs. The wooden ra‘lway of the Champs Elysées is now in full operation, and the experiment has proved quite ruccessful, 1 am told that the governmect hag authorized the company to establish a like railway on the Boulevards. The expense of this railway is ony 1,600 france. ‘be manufacturing of rhubarb wine is receivin an immense extension in France; and I am afrai: that the United States will have much to complain of by this new humbug.

We have now in Paris Mr Coralli, the distin- [Bese professor of dancing who is busily engaged collecting the newest dances of the opera and fashionable circles to import them to the United States. Mr. Coralli intends leaving Paris at the end of the month, and will arrive just in time for the 1e- | turn of the beau monde. ‘The grand opera bas been well filled since its re- epening, and last night the manager produved a new bailet, in two acta 'y M: Magiifisa, tho music b M, Potier, which was received with the mdet desk. ening? applause, tile of the is | this | mer “ Hlia and Mytis,” and Mdile.

Autumn is now with us in one of her blandest | moods—a little cooler than she ought to be, per- haps, but still delicious, especially in the item of fo- liage. The country around Boston is rich with the most maguificent hues, exhibiting all the multitudi- | nous riches of an American antumn—green, yellow, red, purple, and gold. The elms are seared, and pre- sent a yellow indicative of an early death, Every maple tree—avd magles are very abundant in this purt et the world—is a mass of srimson fice, appa- rently glowing with vigorous life, though in reality iant appearance indicates nothing bat a stage of rapid decay. The fruit trees still retain their pale green, while that of the oak is as deep as at midsummer. Other colors and hues are to bz ' geen on various trees and shrubs. The North American Rev‘ew for October has an | article on “Uncle Tom’s Cubio,” in the course of which it is proposed that the emigrants who arrive in this aii should be sold into a modified form of slavery. This is a rather siogularsuggestion, and particularly #0 when viewed in connection with the fact that labor is very high with us, and that there are indications ot laborers becoming scarcer still. The tables are turning, in one seuse, very re- ably. It is the man who has labor to self who is getting to be the lord, vot the man who hires him, who is fast eoming down to the laborer’s old plan. Our factories are adopting the eleven hour rule; but this will wot save them from being brought under the operations of a ten hoar law. A very eminent manu- , fucturer remarked yesterday, that during the next five years labor was destined to be very high indeed; aud | there is no manin the country whose opinion on such | | cour, «subject is more worthy of consideration. Hence, ‘talists are as likely as laberers themselves to ~th apger upon anything that may tend to dis- ‘he latter from coming to this country. They ev not wish the surplus of an indispensable ar- ticle to he periled. Some few senatorial nominations have been made. In Hampden county the whigs have made their peta and Sees at baron) scene Cs some “ bolting,” growing out of and pe:renal dissatisfaction. In Ham, hire, the democrats and whigs have both placed their tickets iv the ffeld, there being no coalition in that county, which is looked upon as hopelessly exe though whigism may there meet with a fall. The Plymouth whigs have named their candidates. Inthat county the coulition used t» elect its men with ease, by large majorities, until last year, when the were squeezed in by only about a dozen majori- ty, owing to I'quor law troubles mainly, aud some- thing to pauperism. The whigs will tight hard in a county so nearly balanced. The nominations thus fir mude are of no possible account whatever on the seore of tulent or political influence. The coali- ticnists have not, I believe, as yet, called a county convention, and it is suppored thut they will not be in avy hurry te open the campaign. Tue Tunnel convention will meet at Vicksburg on the ilth ot October, and promises to be a spirited concern. The Tonnelites are increasing in num- bers and influence, and are therefore treated with deference by the politicians. The Post, { see, denies that I was right in saying that that paper receives $6,000 a year for government | that the Naval Officer and Post- | master here receive $7,000 per annum each. As re- | sovertisements, and #pects the advertising, the editor of the Post ought to kuow bis own business better than any outsider, and my remark was founded on general rather than particular knowledge. As eta the offices, I spake of them as I have always heard them men- ticned by others, and in some instances by gentlemen whore knowledge is the result of experience. I make this statement as @ matter of justice, having no feeling or interest in the business. The hunker democratic convention for Norfolk county, held on the 5th, was not quite so harmonious an affair as it should have been. Some of the dele- gates left the Convention, on the ground that all its objects were of a whigish character. There are two classes of hunkers. The first is composed of old original anti-coalition men, who have become alarm- ed i consequence of the vivient attacks that have been made on the national administration by sume of their ‘jubilant’ associates; and the second is made up, apparently, of gentlemen who hate that administration, for some cause or other. more than they do the coalition, and who, being in the habit or “speaking out,” asy what they think, in the most in- judicious manner possible. Mr. Dowley is to remain the democratic candidate for Lieutenant Governor, the State Committee voting not to take cognizance of the fact of his having de clined the nomination tendered him by the Worces- ter Convention, The natioual democrats have an organ at last, the @hronicle having placed the names of Wales and Osborne at ite head. It is not known whether they have bought that pevee or not, but a prominent hunker told me, some days since, that they were in treaty for rt, and, if unsnecessful, should start a weekly paper here, to be followed, a3 soon as ar- Tangewents could be made, by a. daily. Several prominent nationals have assured me that they have received letters from numerous jeaders of the democracy in other parte of the country, warmly approving of their course, attacks on Gen.

But the writer of that | letter is a Cabinet Minister of the United States; its recipient is at the head of the Revenue Department | of the commercial peconalis of the country; andthe | | disgrace, therefore, which will necessarily and justly ensue upon the giviag of the document to the world attaches to the uation as well as to the Party which placed those gentlemen iu their official positions. | ‘This letter is an unequivocal admission, almost a | direct assertion, that the obtaining of a certain por- | tion of a few offices, which confer no authority and | earry with them no dignity, which open no future to their incumbents, and which are worth afew hun- | died dollars a year each; that the obtaining of a good | share of there is the object of the workings of the | party which now controls the cabiieieenee of this country, and that a cautious distribution of those offices will alone secure union and harmony among | the constituents of the Chief Magistrate ef this Re- | public, who himself expects, nay, who ‘“‘requires,” | that the distinguished citizen who has stepped down from bis seat upon the bench of one of our highest courts of law to take the first place in the custom house of New York, should consider it as one of the | most important of bis duties to distribate theve very pave ane fragmentary loaves and fishes among the faithful, Mr. Gu'brie’s text is the conviction which has forced itself upon his miad, “that by democrats pledged to eaeh other upon a common platform of principles, the division could and ought to have been prevented.” aa , icy fh pecs 3 answered by the Secretary himself in the next paragraph but one of his letter; avd the answer is that, ‘the Presi: dent,” the chief executive officer of one of the great. est nations, if not the greatest on the earth, under- stands that all the demucrats so pledged to each other were “entitled to be recognized as lee of the confidence of the united party, and consequentiy— eligible to official station.” Office, place, to be quar. tered upon the public, is, by the confession of a lead- ing cabinet minister, writing with and by the advice and consent of the President, that to which a demo- crat makes bis title clear by upholding and carrying out principles which the President professed to con- sider essential, aud which the bulk 0: the nation have | declared to be essential to the prosperity and useful- ness, if not to the very existence of this republic. But as if this were not a confession hamiliating | enough, Mr. Guthrie goes on, and truthfully avows | that it must be admitted, doubtless after grave con- rultation, ‘ that a!) could not obtain office;” the coun- | try bad not place for all the self sacrificing democrats | wuo were ready to devote themeelvc: Teaklesily to | her welfare. Curtiuses were plenty, but gulfs, 3! ! were too few. The President's chief care, it finally appears, has been, in the words ef the Secretary of the Treasury, to distribute office so as to give just cause of complaint to no one section of the party. This intention Mr. Guthrie explicitly states has been carried out not enly by the President himself bat by | most of his appointees. ‘‘ Masters, it is already proved that you are little better than false knaves, | and it will go near to be thought so shortly.” Again and again it been awserted and shown in these columns that the present administration has yet done nothing more than to endeavor mightily ‘to give | just cause of Seanpleios to no one section of the par- | ty;” and as often have the supporters and the organ | of the President and his cabinet, who, as Mr. Guth- Tie says, act “ with entire unanimity” in this matter, denied our assertions and aftempted to set aside our showivg ; and now one of themselves has turned | State’s evidence, and the murder is all out. Quorum | rs fur says the Secretary, as he tells of the petty, | ut soul trying and unsuccessful struggle to secure union and barmony, and his own party cannot im- peach his evidence. There is a portion of this letter which, if it were not for the contemptible object for which it is writ- ten, might be dignified with the epithet, important. | It is that ‘the other portion of the party, that por- | tion which has not been recognized by the Collec- tor in the only way that will carry conviction with | it,” to efor # soft shell barnburners, are recog: | nized by the President ‘‘ as democrats distinctly avowing and firmly maintaisiag the principles of the Baltimore plattorm, and, (note the importaat, the oply consequence.) entitled to be recognized by appointment to official stations in your de; | ment’—the Custom House of the por tof New York. The President, in spite of the direfal conse- quences cf the now existing feud, is still a untertified. He dares to say that vonsiders the | barnburners democrats. More than th: pro- cures the writing of a letter to Mr. Bronson, a man who wrote a letter bimseif but the other day; agrand letter, an out»poken, straight-forward, refreshing lever i thesm ducking, ssulking, shotfling vVimes—the President has a letter written to such a man, in which the writer. not enly expresses “the | expectation” that Mr. Brovson will appoint these | baruburners to office, but announces that he has tuken measures “that there may be no misappre- | hension as to the policy which the President will require to be pursued.’ If the Hon Greene C.

As far as our knowledge goes, itis in its eutire spirit and in the conoition of things which it reveals, without exce ption the most degrading, pidable, and despic- able communication which bas ever been sent from | any one important officer of this republic to an- | other. It covers the whole nation with shame ex- cept its authors, for they must be shameless.

Riots in Philadelphia on Election Day. [From the Philadeiphia Bulletin, Uct. 12.] At most of the election polls throughout the city and districts yesterday, the utmost deco:um and good order prevailed, We regret, however, to be compelled to report keveral serious disturbances which teok place in different parts of the city and county among, disorderly persons. In the afternoon a brutal fight took place at the corner of Germantown road and Second street, between the ad- herents of the William Penn and Independence Hose Companies. Soon after the above Sight, officer Barger, of the North- ern Liberty police, at the request of s citizen, arrested one of the rowdies at the corner of Phenix’ and Hope streets, and attempted to take him to the lock-up, but he was attacked by a large crowd of the ruffians, knocked down and his mace snatched from his hand. The nippera were cut from the hand of his prisoner, and the rowdies succeeded in reseuing hin, Officers Baker and Aflleback also arrested a prisoner, whe was alse rescued. Officer Burger was severely bruised about the body, and in the melee received several severe blows upon the head. About four o'clock, a fight occurred between the ad- herents of the Independence and South Penn Hose Com- panics, in the vicinity of Eleventh and Parish streets, in which bricks and stones were thrown in great profusion. The Spring Garden police arrested three of the adherents of the South Penn, named John Hiner, Chas, Gensell and John Miller, who were locked up fer » hearii At the corner of Eighth and Rae brickbut fight eccurred between tl South Penn Hose companies, Th recently come inte servico agait pended for six months for rioting. About tem o’clock last aight twe parties of rudians, rallying under the names of “Delawares”? and “Parkers,” came in collision at the corner of Schuylkill, Third and Spruce streets, and began o fight with mixsil ieu- tenant Hamilton and officer Myers, of the police, threw themnelyea between the contending parties, when they were saluted with @ discharge ef pistols.’ The officers arrested a prisoner euch, and seattered the rioters with their revolvers, Last evening, about half: past nine o'clock, two hostile parties came together in the vicinity of Ninth and But- tonwood streets, when several pistol shots were fired, one of which took effect in the hand of « lad named Burts, lncerating it very sadly. He was taken to the drug store ef Mr. Fort, where the wound was dressed. ith Penn kas very ter having been sus- EE ese FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. MONEY MARKET. ‘Tuvrspay, Oct, 13-6 P. M. There were unusual large sales this morning at the board, and nearly every fancy on the list was freely offer- ed. Buyers were not so plenty as sellers. The tendency of prices throughout was downward, and the decline was quite general. New Jersey Zine fell off 3 per cent; Po- tosi Lead, 34; Florence and Keyport, 34; Nicaragua, X; Parker Vein, 14; Phenix Coal, 34; New Creek, 3; New York Central Railroad, 34: Erie Railroad, 3; Stonington, 134; Norwich and Worcester, 34; Hudson River Railroad, 34; Cumberland Coal advanced ‘4 per cent. Large lots of Erie were seld to-day for cash. In ether stocks, the trans- actions were principally on time, buyer's optien. Kvery- thing was comparatively quiet in the street today. We hear of no more suspensions; but unfortunately we can- not see below the surface, and are, therefore, unable to anticipate explosions. There must be a good many shaky speculators about, with whom it is merely a matter of time. At the second board there was # regular old-fashioned panic in Walls reet, and the bulls stood aghast at the appearance of the stock market. There must be aume- rous failures ameng holders. The fall has been so rapid and se great that very few eam stand up against it, if It would be well for the bears to look out for their time contracts, or net ene in a dozen will be worth the paper they are drawn on, At the board ed 145 per cent, Morris Canton Company 3, Nica- raugua 134, Parker Vein 1)4, Harlem 1, Hudson River 3, New York Central Railroad 1, Erie Railroad 34%, Reading Railroad 1. Even at this heavy depreciation there were sellers on time to some extent, buyers’ option, This showed that there were those who look for a mush lower depth, and there is very little doubt but that their expee- tations will be realized. It is possible a slight reaction may be realised ina day or two, but it cannot bo other- wise then temporary. ‘A telegraphic despateh from Washington haying inti- mated that Mr. Draper's accounts with the governmen had not been satifactorily adjusted, we annex an official document from the First Auditor of the Treasury Depart- ment, given under date the 6th inst., showing not only a full settlement of all claims, but a small balance due him from the government :— : Treascry DEPARTMENT, First pITOR’S Ovricr, Oct. 6, 1853.

The political news is interesting, but not parti- eularly important, The Turkish question appears to be as far frém settlemen as ever. The financial accounts con- tinue gloomy. The rate of interest had again advanced, 4a greater stringency prevailed in the money market. Breadstuils bad improved, and cotton had declined. There was an active demand for flour at the advance, and prices were firmly maintained. Only a moderate amount of business in cotton had been transacted for several days previous to the departure of the steamer. ‘The accrued interest on the instalmeats on bonds of the Illinois Ce ntral Railroad Company, up to the 1éth inst., will be paidon that day, at the office of the company, in this city. ‘A meeting of lumber dealers was held on Tuesday even- 1g at the Astor House, on the subject of the late orders of the directors of the Erie Rrilroad, in relation to the transportation of Iumber upon that road. A committee was appointed to confer with the directors of the road, and report to a meeting to be subsequeatly called. ‘The Manufacturers’ Insurance Company, of Bostor, has declared a dividend of fifteen per cent., payable on de- mand. We showed yesterday that the immense amount:of rail- road bonds, city bonds, county bonds, borough bonds, and village bonds, remaiaing in the hands of speculators as so much dead weight, was one of the principal causes of the present embarrassments, and would produce many fail- w For more than two years the manufacture of these bonds has been going on, and they have been put off at auction, at private sale, and bartered in diferent ways, #0 an to produce the needful, at almost any sacrifice. Within the past twelve months we have had sales at auction of railroad bonds, averaging at least one million of dollars per week. The sales have ranged frow fifty per cent upwards, ‘but even this great sacrifice did not deter the manufac- turers from letting them go. If the price was not large enough to give the amount of money required, enough bonds were sold to make it up. So long as the machine was in operation it was easy onough to supply as many as this market would take, After parties here had beceme pretty well surfeited, it became necessary to look abroad for purchasers, Agents were therefore despatched to Europe, loaded down with vonds of every variety, and a very choice seloction wag offered upon the most favorable terms, The greatest lati tude was given these agents in making their negotiations, The sole object in view was to get rid of them at good prices; but get rid of them at any price, rather than re- turn without. In carrying owt these intentions, all sorts of barter trading was resorted to. Railroad iron, dry goods, merchandise of every description, were taken in exchange, at high prices, and sent to this country for sale and eonsumption. This was the first great cause of the in- crease jn the value of importations, and it has reached aw extent far beyond our most extravagant calculations. The excessive impertations protuced by these forced purchases abroad, caused « rapid accumulation in the revenue from customs, withdrew from the channels of trade an im- mense amount of gold and silver, and locked it up in the government depositories, as nu muck dead capital, We an- nex a statement showing the value ef morchandise in, perted and the amount of revenue collected in eaeh of the past s@ven years:— Commance oF Tm Usrrap Staves—LMPorts 4ND REVENUE. $116, 257,595 . 140,651,902 ~ 182,565,108 . 164,082,083 . W768. . . 000 The value of merchandise imported into the States during the year endivg June 20, 1863, was ene bum 59,000, United 250, f dollars greater than during the year ending June 30, 1847. Im about sevem years the imports have more than dqubled in value, The amount of revenue from duties on imports, colleeted during the year ending Jume 20, 1863, was thirty-five millions ef del- lars greater than for the year euding June 30, 1847. It is impossible to contemplate this state of things witheut becoming most thoroughly convinced that we cannot go en much longer om the same track, without a smash up. The enormous importations of the past four or five years have piled up a surplus revenue im the hands ef the Treasurer and Assistant Treasurers ef the United States of mere than thirty millons of dollars. Weremarked, a few days since, that this evil could only be eorrected through the tariff, It has not been caused by that act, any further than the rate of duty on such enormous imports, being teo large, certain results maturally followed. Any tariff would have preduced similar resulta. We must look about and see if there is not going to be such changes in the eredit ays- tem as will do away with the necenity of modifying the tariff any farther than substituting the specifie for the ad valorem principle in the cellection of imposts. Feur or years of an enourmeusly expanded credit has filled the country with fleors ef foreiga manufactures, and all sorts of extravagance and folly have been the result. If this inflation of eredits eould bo maintained, it would be necessary to reduce materially the average rate ef duty, so that an importation of two hundred and fifty millions of dollars would give a revenue corresponding more nearl ly with the actual current expenditures of the general government. But thix is not likely to last. The mate- rial used for the payment of foreign goods, to sueh an im- mense extent, has been +xhausted, and we must fall back upen our natural resources. Fora time, at least, eur fo- reign trade must be regulated by natural laws, and we must look for an important decrease in the aggregate value. Under the tariff act of 1846 it requires am importa tion of nearly two lumdrod millions to give suffl- cient revenue, and any modification of that aet must be approached with s great deal ef caution. The surplus revenue is am evil, but we may bring about a greater one by too hasty legislation. In 1836 wo had a large surplus revenue, and such was the anxiety to get rid of it that fin act distributing it among the differ: ent States was passed by Congress, and carried inte effect. In less than five yeara from that time the Treasury of the United States was bankrupt, amd since, a loan ef more: than sixty millions of dollars has been contrasted. We may make a similar mistake again, and the experience ef 1836 should not be without its influence upon eur Legis- laters. As much of a burden asthe present surplus is as objectionable as such am accumulation canmot but be and notwithstanding the loud complaints from the com» mercial elaases, a calm, eareful review of the past, with proper provisions for the future, should be considered be. fore a decided movement is taken. The thirty millions the Treasury may prove a stumbling block to the Secretary of the Treasury. He is, under autherity, pum chasing the government debt at a’ premium, and the sur- lus in this way has been kept to its present limit; but it sa question in financial circles if thia policy is mets poer ene, as it sends out of the country a large amount ef ‘specie, which would otherwise remain for a time > at leant, among us, even if locked up in the vaults of Sub-Treasury. $10000 U 8 6's, '67.68.1223¢ Tuvaspay, Oct. 13, 1858, 100 she Par vale. 1a 1000 Er 24 Mfg bde.. 10234 50 ‘ 1000 Erie Inc 923g 400 5000 do... es 92% 25 6006 Frie Con bds,'71 88% 100 12 4000 do....... 883g 200 NCrevk Coal Go., 2: 2000 MCenRR base 85 9000 do... 80 26 she But & Drov Bk 1173¢ 10 Bauk of Com... 106 6 Metropolitan Bk. 10334 25 Continental Bk.. 100 160 Morris Canal...03 14 1€0 do. 6 Cont Ins Co 100 Canton Co. 100 do 400 do. 60 Cary Imp 100 N J Zine Cc 200 Pen & L Ze 200 do 200 do. 209 Potosi La Co 2 ed 160 Blo& Ky 100 +b60 56 100 do. 200 +e 56 125 do. 3800 +, 55 100 do 310 :b15 56, 50 do 108 sore DOO 56: 100 Nie Tran 600 Leng Isl RR... .b3 29 160 do 19@ Stonington RR 8B 603¢ 200 150 Nor & Wor RR} 200 100 Mires se: Boo 25 do 150 60 a 100 50 a 200 100 Reading 160 Cum Coal 200 Hud Riv RR. 100 60 a 450 do. 200 50 100 50 i 300 100 do......b23 353% 160 WS 66 50 Dolly Hide CopCe 6% 100 Mich Cont RR. ,08 110 250 Phenix Mining Co 16 eE0@ND BOARD. 300 sha Harlom RR, 100 Hudson R RR, 200 60 ehs Broadway Bk. 116 100 CO. 400 Long Isl Rit 100 Reading RR. 100 100 100 CITY TRADE REPORT. ‘TRuRSDAY, Oct. 13—6P, M, AsHm were unchanged.
