Arrival of the Crescent City. FROM CUBA—OUR HAVANA CORBESPONDENOE— MARKETS. The United States mail steamship Crescent City, Lieut. J. F. Sehenck, U. 8. N., commanding, arrived here yester- Bay morning. She left New Orleans at 9.30 A. M. on the 2th ult. for New York via Havana, whence she sailed at 2 A. M. of the lat inst., with the mails and passengers for this port. The Crescent City encountered very heavy weather dur- ing the greater part of the passage. ‘There was a large quantity of shipping in the harbor of Havava, and trade in exports was reported brisk. The ravages of cholera and yellow fever had been ef- fectually stayed in the interior and southern parts of Cuba, and the island was reported as enjoying its usual fF Her Britannic Majesty’s sloop of war Vestal sailed A Havana on a cruise, early on the morning of the inet. ‘Our thanks are due to Mr. Purser Bullsy, for late news nd for files of the Diario de la Marina of Havana, to AstNovember.

The officers of this ship are well known in this community, and yet, as I observed chem on the general promenade, the evening of their ar- ival, there were uo Spaniards or creoles willing to recog- pize them, beyond the hired agents of their ship- phandlery And yet they were watched with keen in- buisition, that meant more than words could utter.

Yesterday, on 'Chapge, it was rumored that General PPisuela had certainly declined the post of Captain Gene- 1 of Cuba, aud other names were mentioned as probably pointed. the first going off these gentlemen ima that there is au end to the official bonus, under the stem; but if they will consult with a gentleman , Who is well known to fame in his private family tions as well as in his public distribu:ive agency, hey would learn that thres ounces per head for one hun- dred negroes makes not so much money as one ounce per head tor two thotisand—a difference to be derived fren liding apprentices for thirty-seven years instead of ten, paking the proportion of the past to the present pecu- ry temptations as $5,100 is to $34,000. ‘These things will be too rapidly veritied by the facts England will find a muititude of new officers an its neces#ary to carry out and enforce her plans, and then, herself defeated in the utfected purpose, but pos- bly not in the ulterior and more important object, in the struction of the agricul: ural interests of Cuba, organi tion of anew race gnd a new society, under her own hmosquetve’’ iofluences, and thus weiviug the black om toyards the United States, where lies bu ied the cret object of her hate. 1 believe General Pizuela ter advised. and although he may not sppear to covet ositioa, he will be very careful not to decline it. ch things come not but onve in a lifetime, and the golden fleece” is here, whieh he knows how to appreciate.

But if the men can be saved, for heaven’s sake get somebody to adv. change lin the nethera, even if government should pay the cost. It would be a saving in the end. I kear much said of the vessels of war of the United States not being here, but I presume they are much better employed down east; at least what they ave dove we know not, but we have seen accounts of Pletsant social relations, feasting and dancing, which are App aids of modern diplomacy, ant they are convenient- cy of the Sritish path in those waters while elsewhere ey might be offensive.

EMPANNELMENT OF THE GRAND JURY FOR THE OCTO- BER TERM—JUDGE BEEBE’S CHARGE. Nov. 7.—The court opened this moraing, at 10 o'clock, and proceeded, as usual on the,firstday of the term, toem- pannel the Grand Jury for the October term; and that Bey of men, having been sworn or affirmed, Judge Beebe charged them as follows: Gentlemen of the Grand Jury—It is not my habit to elaborate much in my charges to the gentiemen who compose the grand inquest for the city and county of New York. However, 9s 1 am called w Tho law to ad- dress you, I shall, briefly as possivie, call your attention to your general duties, and then leave you to their dis- charge. ‘Those cuties are necessarily arduous. From the size of our city and the shifting character of our population, there is necessarily a large amount of crime committed within our micst, and there are many things de- manding the action of ti ad Jury. We are, there- fore, under the necessity, I times, of having an active Grand Jury, if we wish a prompt discharge of business. The law requires, before a man accused of felony or any of the large class-of misdemeanors can be tried at all, that the #rand Jury shall pass upon his case to that efleck Consequently, before this Court can act in the despatch of business, accused parties must pase through your hands. I shall endeavor, and Ido now endeavor, to impress upon you the necessity of great ac- tivity in she discharge of your duties, so that the Court may no’ be waiting for business I have, during the time ¢ ‘enon the bench, learned this important fact— omptness in punishment is one of the great pre- sof crime. We should have much less in our midst if a crime committed to-day could be punished ba- fore the sun went down, #0 that parties may not be led to believe that if they cam only get bail they will never be tried. Iremember when I was at the bar that the bailing of @ prisoner was considered as equivalent to an escape; the party was uot likely to be punished for his crime. It is absolutely necessary for the cue administration of justice that criminals shall be promptly punished If you, gentlemen, will second our efforts, | will guarantee on the part of the Court and is officers that there sball be no lack of promptness in the infliction of the punishment authorized by law. There ia neceseacily devolved upon you at this term's large amount of business. I think there are some two hundred or three hundred bail cates for assaults and batteries, besides numerous misdemeanors. The e some ninety prison cases where the parties are now in prison, besides these remaining over from the last term— some thirteen or fourteen. I should be happy, in order to a prompt despatch of business, to keep this court open tili eight or nine o’clock in the even- ing. Iam willing to sit here all that time in trying cases. It has not been my custom to direct your atten tion to the Jaw governing each case, because of the usu- ally large amount of business. It would involve « great loss of time, and, in fact, would embarrass more than actist you. "You have a faithful law officer upon whem you can call fcr advice and assistance, if you have any doubt as to the law governing a particular case, when eliciting the facts in regard tot. It is better that instruc- tions as to the law should-come from the District Attorney than the Court; but there are points in regard to which the law requires the Court to charge the Grand Jury. The first to which I shall advert is one likely to interest us at this particular time, and that is the subject of elections. We all desire, as citizens of a great republic, the purity of the elective franchise. The Legislature has, so far as it surroundedg his right to vote with sll of the safeguards tha: the wisdom of man cculd devise. Every violation of it should be punished severely; and should any such case come under your ob- servation, it will be your duty to give it the attention its importance demands. The next point is that of usury; that is, the taking or withholding of more than seven per cent for the use of oue hundred dollars tor a year. By our law the ees of more than the per centage I have stated, |: made a forfeiture of the whole amount loaned or au vanced. Our Legislature has gone further, and bh: said that if any party takes, or receives, or withhol amount than seven dollurs for the great of one hi red dollars for one year, he is guilty of a misdemeanor, rendering him liable to fine and imprisonment. | We now that the present ix a time of considerable monetary de- ression. In mark for its use. t, money is bringing large prices I am’ not here to express an opin fon as whether the Jaw of usury is politic or otherwise. In all past time governmen‘s have had usury laws for what is termed the protection of societ; against the grasping of money lencers or usurers. In tl State, I repeat, such laws exist; and if any such cases come before yu, for your action, it will be your duty to jive them such attention as the laws demand. There i mother matter to which I must allude, and that is, ubject of lotteric By a statute passed many years ago, in thie State, lotteries were made illegal, and subjected the parties engaged in them to imprison- ment and the forfeiture of their property. 1 have no doubt, notwithstanding the existence of those laws, that viclations, and daily violations, take place in a great city like this, and wherever I can do so, with the action of the Grand Jury, I shall punish the parties engaged in them so that they will feel it. Ifyou find a bill against a party for felony, and the party is not in arrest, it is your daty to keép that fact a secret, so that the ends of justice may not be defeated by its exposure. I have wade it a point to charge nd Juries to keep everything secret. The proceedings of a Grand Jury, so long as that imstitution exists in this country, should bekeptrecret. If they be kept secret it will be the means of bringing to the Grand Jury grievances which would not otherwise have come be ere them. It is im- portant that you should keep your own counsels, and those of your fellows. You are aware that sixteen mem- bers are required to constitute a quorum; twelve are re- quired to find, as well as to dismiss, a bill, It hae ha; ned that where twelve could net be found in favor of ill the case has been dismissed; but such was not the right course of ages) If twelve cannot be found to vote for dismissi the bill, all that can be done is to Jay it over. 1 have not, I repeat ip conclusion, intended to direct your attention to all ot your multifarious powers. We ask that will heartily second the court ia boa ty ‘ing the that may come before it. With,t) remarks, you may retire to rour room. , The excuses from the petit jurors being heard, they were discharged until Wednesday morning, and the court, after sitting » few moments longer, adjourned until to- zone the law forbidding the court to sit on election ‘y- + Destrvcrive at Agron, Ont0—On the night of the 2d inst. destructive fire occurred at Akron.

MONEY MARKET. Monpay, Nor. 7-6 2. M. There was more activity ia the stock market this morn- ing, and better prices were realized. The advance does not, however, amount to much, and there is no evidence of ita being but temporary. The worst fancies on the market improved, while the really good stocks—those which have been unwarrantably depressed—remaia the same af previously quoted. Nicaragua Transit advanced, to-day, 34 per cent; Erie Railroad, %; Canton Company, Ulster Lead, 34; N. Y. Central Rail road, '4; Reading, 11; Hudson River Railroad, 4; New Haven Railread, 14; Michigan Central Railroad, \{; Morrie Canal, %{; N. Y. Central bonds, 34. Potosi Lead fell off 34 per cent,; Brunswick Land Co, 3;. After the board stocks wers lower. The announcement of several fail- ures depressed the ma: and all the fansies were freely offered at the decline, Mr. A. D. Patehin; the Patch- in Bank, of Buffalo, ani the New York City, Hornellsville and Buffalo Railroad Company, have failed, and the amount of lisbilities involved is very large. The effect of these suspensions throughout the Western part of this State, must be most disastrous, Railroads throughout the West, have been serious sufferers by the present stringency in the money market, and many of those partially com- pleted, will be compelled to discharge their laborers, and wait for a more propitious period for finishing the works, In the meantime, they will be decaying, and the capital expended remain unproductive. Contractors will be obliged to withdraw all their sub-contracts, and « Tuinous state of things throughout prevail. The histoty of the Erie Railroad Company shows very clearly the effect and result of such suspensions on public works, and in any case, it cannot but be highly detrimental to every interest concerned. Where these failures will end and how extended will be the effect, no one at present can toll, We myst pationtly wait the course o gyqnts, fog the ball is in motion, a04 n0 one can control its move- GIIl holders of the Patchin re well secured. The stocks and securities deposited in the Banking Depart- mont, amounted at the date of the last report, to $117,- 510, to protect a circulation of $115,679. ‘The failure at Buffalo noticed yesterday under the tele- @rsphic head, waa Lucius H, Pratt, a large forwarding merchant. The amount of liabilities involved is report- ed to be two hundred thousand dollars. A report by the President te the stockho'ders of the Missouri Irop Mountaia Railroad Company, states their resources as follows: — Coonty of St. Louis bonds. City of St. Louis... . Iron Mountain Company. Ota Merccaslon i per cont jon. Addition, city of St. Louis bonds. State bonds... Individual su All but $175,000 of this amount is in the bonds of cor- Porations, such as cities, counties and towns, ’ The total value of the foreign export from Baltimore, for the week ending on Thursday, was $145,527. The export of breadatuffs for the week comprises 10,280 bbla, of flour, and 1,078 bushels of corn. Of tobacco 913 hogs- heads, and of coal 736 tons were exported. The Baltimore Sun of the 5th instant gives the’follow- ing review of stock operations and quotations in that city during the past woek : The bu #8 at the Baltimore Stock Board this week has been toa very fair amount, viz: $370,000, of which the principal sales were over 7,800 shares of the Baltimore and Obio Railread, (inclusive of 426 after the Board,) $10,200 of thy bonds of the company, $6,845 City 6’s, and $3,826 of State loans, with various bank stocks, as 64 shares of Farmers’ and Planters’, 40 Farmers and Mer- chants’, 7 Commercial and Farmers’, 20 Merchants’ 4 Franklin, and 3 Bank of Baltimore; also, 200 shares Bal timore Fire Insurance Company. The operations in Bal- timore and Ohio Railroad still show considerable a0- tivity, with a little more demand for investment atocks. At the close, however, Baltimore and Ohio Railroad is not quite so firm. The first sales of the week were at 4314 a 44%, and the last sales yesterdsy at 45 0 46, a de- clive of 24 from Thursday's prices, with. the closlug bid still lower, at 443{, and 451 asked, showing some flucta- ations, but such only ax may be expected in this stock according to the humor of speculators in the extent of demand and supply, whichever, as it posaibly will for at least two sears yet, afford no promise of « dividend. “The advance in th» bonds of the road and in Baltimore City 6's, which commenced last, has continued this week— City 6's. of 1890, went to 10334, Hine of $1, but have tnee fallen back 34 ; Balti Obio Railrosd bonds, of 1885, sold at 794, © 703, but yonterday $1 was bid; those of 1867 have sold at 94a 95. State 6's remain firm and steady. Bank stocks tend upward The coal stecks are entirely egeete |, and in Baltimore and Sus- uebannah Railroad , Canton, and Tarnpike stocks, ere is nothing doing. | Vor Parkersburg Guaran bonds only 983¢ bas been bid, and for York and Cumber- land Railroad shares 1834—oonsequently no sales. Tho wales at the Board yesterday amounted to about $46,600, oneof the smallest day’s transactions of the woek. .

This is much better than anticipated. The eontraction in dis- counts still continues. Some uneasiness exists in the public mind at this pe- riod in regard to the circulation of our banks, and espe- cially the banks in this city. By the returns of the banks for the week ending Saturday, Nov. 5, it appeared that there were in circulation on that day the sum of nine millions four hundred and ninety-two thousand one hun- dred and fifty-eight dollars. The public are under the impression that all this circulation is secured by the 1¢- quisite deposit of securities with the Bank Department at Albany, but such isnot the fact, as we will show. The charters of the follo ving banks in this city expired at the rexpective times stated viz :-— Circulation. City Bank, July 1, 1852 ........... + $129,500 Bark of America, January 1, 1853. 167,437 Pank of New Yerk, “ 310,720 Butchers’ and Drovers’ Bank Union Bank, January 1, 1853... All of these barks, from the time above stated, have been doing business under an organization in pursuance of the provisions of what is called the general banking law, and the transition from the old system to the new was very summary, which, on paper, amounted to paying their stockhelders the value of the stock in the company, the charter of which had expired at twelve o'clock at night, and such stockholders before ten o’clock the next morning had re-imvested their money in the stock of the new bank. This trancaction would seem to require that the debts of the bank should be paid, which of course included the circulating notes; but this was not pre- tended to have been done, but a sham formality, some- thing in this wise, was perpetrated: A certain sum of money was ret apart and placed to the credit of some officer or director of the bank, who was dignified with the title of trustee, in an amount equal to the circula- tion of the particular bank. That fund was left in the new bank, to be ‘banked’? upon as any other funds 0° the bark was used, and in case of disaster it would be lost, as other funds would be, and the bill holder would be remediless, for that is his only security. These notek, wholly unsecured are received and paid out by the banks with the same freedom as though there wae & legal right to do so. They are not the notes of the new bank, and the new bank is not responsible. In case of disaster to the new bank, its stockholders will not con- went that the funds of the bank should be applied to the payment of any debte it wae not legally liable for, The Superintendent of the Bank Department called the attention of the Leg'slature to this matter, in his annual report of December, 1852. He says:— From past experience, it is presumed that the outstand- ing circulation of those banks the charters of which will expire on the 1st of January, will not be materially de- creased. The banks above referred to have already orga- nized, or are about to organize, as associations, ander the provisions of chapter 318, laws of 1849; and all claim the right, under their new organization, to issue and cir- culate the notes of the bank of the same name, the char- ter of which has expired, and when in some in- stances the capital stock, or some portion of it, it is be- lieved, has been divided and paid to the stockholders. The amount of this class of circulating notes is now large, being the sum of $1,672,777, and on the Ist Janu- uary next will be inereased $4,024,466, making in the ag- gregate the sum of $6,097,433, The banks being too strong for the Legislature, no Iaw, we believe, was passed upon the subject; but the remedy in in the hands of the people, and we trust it will be ap- plied. The only way to regulate sneh a gross evasion of the law is to call on the banks for liquidation of all unse- cured promises to pay, and if refused, filea bill in equity sgainst the persons who are called trustees to apply the funds nominally under their control for that purpose. ‘The Miners’ (Pottsville) Journal, of the 5th inst., gives the annexed report of the coal trade of the anthracite region, up to Thursday the 34. inst. :— AxtHRactre Coat Trane—1863, The quantity went by railroad, is 38,43 19. by canal, 34,664 16—for the week, 62,999 14 1on8 Total by rail road, 1,437,598 10 tons, againat 1,622 004 10 tous, Total by canal, 152 07, agaist 009,629 10 tons Us saad yo ried lant year, ee ‘The rvilroed has rsine4p4 651 tons, oad the canal Satan no rn aa The correspondent of the Mauch the trade from the Lackawaue resto ge rege i 1853. lee.
