There were_taken before Justice Stuart, and gave bail in the sum of $2,0(0 each, to appear and answer. Upon the examination of these men, it appeared that they had returned to the County Clerk the following statement of the ballotings in their district:—Cummings H. Tucker as having received 55 votes; Wm. McConkey, 196; Martin, 76; Clark, 38; O’Donohue, 22; and 0, Tuck, 36—whole number of votes, 422. It seems that the fraud ed is, that the defendants caused to be printed a num! of tickets headed ‘‘C, Tucker,” some of which were clandestinely substituted, after the election, for bona fide ballots bearing the name of “Cummings H. Tucker,” thus giving the election to the free soil candi iate for Alderman, Wm. MeConkey. Measures are being taken to ferret out every particular at all relating to this charge. ADDITIONAL, William Turner, Hugh Mooney and William Murray, inspectors of elec‘ion for the First district of the Twen tieth ward, were arrested on Tuesday evening by Captain Stevenson, of the Sixteenth ward police, on complaint of Mr. Alexander Gedney, who charges them with corruptly ard oririnally falsifying, altering and forging the just and lawful canvass ballot and returns for charter officers from the First district of the Twentieth ward. They were taken before Justice Stuart and held to bail each in $2,000 toanswer. Alderman Peck, Assistant Alderman MoCon- key, ands Mr. Tacker became their sureties. The fraud sppears to have consisted in the accused, or one of them, abstracting about thirty-five tickets marked “‘Cammings A. Tucker,” after the election was over, and putting ia their place thirty-five more marked “C. Tucker.”” Cum- mings H. Tucker was the whig, and Wm. McConkey the demooratic candidate for alderman in that ward. By this mancenvre the thi ty-five votes marked “C. Tucker” were not counted for ‘(Cummings H. Tueker,” and thus that gentleman lost his election by about ten votes. The following affidavits, in relation to the matter, tell the whole seers aud are well worthy ful ctl — Cummings H. Tucker, sworn, rays: t he has great reason to believe, and does believe, that in the Twentieth ward, et the election on the 8th inst., there was a gross and criminal fraud perpetrated in the matter a1 ct of canvassing and certlyng the ballots voted in the First district of said ward, to the utter violation of law, the it wrong of the legal and duly qualited voters, and to e prejudice of the rights and benefit of the elective franchise of every good citizen, and tinally, to the sacri- fice of every public virtue and the defeat of the ends of publi justice; and this deponent adds, that as he is informed and verily believes, Caspar C. Childs, ©. P. Johnson, and the foreman in the printing office of said Childs, are in knowledge of certain facts, matters and things tending greatly to prove the perpetration and | existence of said offence, and to the discovery and identi- fication of the offenders; and the deponent prays that the fore the oper éatbortsies and give evidence in the matter accord- to Jaw. ‘John V. Gridley, of No, 232 West Thirty. trat street, Sworn, 68) ‘That on the morning of Thursday, the 10th one of the inspectors of election rat Election district of the Twentieth ward, mst deponent at the ‘place where the election had been held on the previous Tuesday, and deponent was conversing with him in relation to's ticket called the C.

William Murray, snother of the inepectors of election for said dis- trict, had the books in his possession; he also stated that | the reason why they did not proceed with and finish the canvass was because one of the clerks o: in pectors was down town; previous to this time, say about 1114 o'clock tn the morning, deponent propose to Mr. Marray and Mr, | Tarner, separately and together, that they should allow | deponent to be precent ew ing the making out of. the re | turns of the vote; they both declined allowing éepenent to be present, as they stated that they had adjourned to meet at Mr. Turner's honse, it being « private house, that | they might not be annoyed. ranklin W.

The Court rendered a verdict for plaintif of $200 damages, and costs and allowance. Philip We vs, Funk & Valentine Mager.—This action was for illegally detaining persoval property belonging to plaintiff. ¥rom the evidence it eapesre that plain tiff had a judgment against the defendant Funk and one Reed, who carried on business at Nos. 101 and 103 Eliza- beth street, and issued an executioa to the sheriff, who sold out all the right, title, and interest of Reed & Funk to plaintiff, Plaintif! then'went and claimed possession of certain personal property in the premises, which was refused him, and for whi. brings this suit. It far- ther ap that the defendant Mager, previous to the recovery of plaintiff's judgment, had in good faith taken & mortgage on all the property in the two houses; that otber persons had aleo taken mortga;es for part payment of goods sold. The defendanta contended that the sheriff baving only entered upon one floor, could not legally vd upon any other property than rach as was exposed to his view, or of which he made a memorandum. 2d, That this court could not estimate or Ax any value on the right, title and interest of the parties Funk & Reed, in the premises, until evidence was given of the value of the whole, from which the mortgr es should be deducted. ‘The Court non-suited the plaintiff, tates Circuit Court.

Parties who have steadily pur- sued s bearing policy all through the greatest depression, now come out bulls, and are purchasing for a rise. They probably have well weighed matters and things, and thelr conclusions may be just and correct; but we must differ from them and all others who believe that dnancial affairs have been relieved from the difficulties and embarrass- ments which have so recently appeared. The actual onuse is deeper than is generally imagined. The credit system of the country has been, and still is, so much in- flated, and its ramifications extend so far into the opera- tions of all classes, that any derangement must be felt to the remotest section of the country. The fast that the,banks of this city have within the past three mcnths contracted their loans and discounts about four teen millions of dollars, snd increased their specie basis, is no evidence that the contraction is over, or that the banks will soon commence an expansion. The contrac- tion will fora time be sustained, if it does not become still greater. The banks are by no means ina strong posi- tion, with all the liquidation that has been going on, and it will require the utmost caution on the part ot our bank managers to preserve even their present equivocal strength. The commercis] classes are enormously extend- ed in their business operations, and nothing short of a general and steaty contraction of credit throughout clasres of mercantile men, will suffice to place financial affairs on a sound and solid basis. The ups and downs of fancy stocks are influenced more by local matters than in any other way. Other causes, of course, have their effect; but the bulls and bears manogé fancy stocks in a way pe- culiar to themselves. The money market is not always a regulator. Within the past ten days, the fancies have ac- vanced 4 and 5 per cent in the face of a very stringent mar- ket, when money is worth full per centa month on the best business paper, and dificult to get at that. This advance, however, is merely nominal. It is all among certain cliques, but it enables outsiders who desire to realize, to ao so at bigh prices, In this way the street daily inereas- es its supply of stook, and the carrying trade becomes pretty extensive. It would be exceodingly gratifying to us to be able to see things connected with the financial world in a brighter light, but it is entirely out of the qnestion. There is no use of disguising the fact. Tae fa} ture loeks gloomy, and those who are most experienced look forward with good deal of appresension. Holders and buyers of fancy, or even substantial paper securities, may oceasi nally realize gleams of sunshine; but dark anc heavy clouds must close in upon them,and for a time shut out allhope. It willrequire months of liquidation and contraction to place us all right again; and if weget through with nofgreater erils, it will be more than we now expect.

Werpyespay, Nov. 16—6 P. M. The sales at the board were again very Kmited to-day, Ulster cannot rise above 2; and, from the complaints which we hear of the management we are hardly sur- prised at it. Were there not some cause at work of which the public knows nothing, the facts published in the last report, signed by the Treasurer, would have driven the stock much nearer par long before this. The Lindsay, of which over one thousand shares were sold at 65 cents, i+ connected with the Deep River, which sella at 45 and 50 cents. What the par of these valuable cone cerns may be we are notable tosay. The Deep River was bought, as we understand, from an English company, which had worked it unsuccesafally for some time; and the works are said to have been mest of the summer full of water. We cannot tell how much of the stock wag divided among the origioators of the scheme at a nomi- wal price, nor how many shares were reserved and dis. tributed among an enterprising public at a tg thes Accor¢ing to the usua! custom in such matters, ” there ought to have been some fifty thousand dollars or so subscribed to work the mine. What has become this meney? How does it happen that we hear of to be issued? Operators should look into this. North Carvlina has too good » reputation to be lost.

Two shafts were s1 one sixty, the other. one hundred and twenty fest deep; but notwithstanding - all the perseverance and ckil: of the perry ret of the Min- eral company, no trace of the vein could be foand. This. fact, when we bear in mind that the shafts were not more... than eig) ty yards distance from the spot where the North Carolina Company are working, would seem to cast doubts on the reliability ot their vein.
