The States of Indiava, Illinois, Lowa, an measure, prudent as it is, hus beea practically avoid« @ ty a substitution, on much less favorable terms, of county and town bonds.

There are o:her general pro the system; but in te merated the priveip +] or « of securing the redemption issue of notes. At the first blush, this law Jookstu be well di- gested and carefoliy guarded, bat a Hi tle refle tion wiil show that there are at least two erroneous pro- visions in the bil. Toc ono is in allowing any stocks but those of Indiana and tie United States to be deposited as coliaters! seeuuty, andthe otber | is in giving an unlimited power to increase the oapi- tal eto kof tho aswciation. The vitality of tre free banking system can ¢ preserved by in- apiring coofidence in ¢ of the banks to re- deem their iesnes, and ti i © Cannot exist unlees the holders of the ovtes are aware that the collateral is worth its pledged value, and also that it can reodily be converted int> cash. To kaow this, we t Koow what stock is pledged, and whether a saleah ck. The bonds of some States cell lesa read for a loss prics than others, although the int regularly psid. To ‘ove this, it is only necessary ty refor to the etcok list—thus for instsnce on the 12th at New York:— pestering ave enu- it bear on the matter New York State boude 6 per ce wu Obio 6 ver cent..... ave 106 to 111 Kentucky 6 per cent....... cece s LOL to 106 Keatuchy 5 per cent, payable ia New York... Hhnois. cae vsien oS Indiana 5 per cert . Arkaneas 6 per cent......... From ano inspection of th perceive that ttere i price of stocks, an stock is now at per cent Dae H we conclude that tho issues ofall ths free Bunks in Indians that are secured by @ pledge of Indiana State stock are perfectly well guaran’eed, and may safely be re- ceived as mi ie orvinary transactions. Bat, owing to the letituce which tie law gives to the banker jo the selection of the stock tust be may ledge, the public eaanct know whether it is Ar- Eanes or Illinois, or (ndiane State stock which is deposited to guarantee the ¢ pption of the notes that are daily passed from baud to hand as money. The twenty se:ond section of the uct whieh per Tuits the banks to iocrevse ir canital is uawise, beoause it is calculated to pomote wudue expausions in proeperous times. It ia said to have been the practice of some of these institutious, under the power conferred by this clanse, to purchase stock with the notes fir-t issued, then lge that stock, issue more notes and sgain more stock, thus converting the iustitation lato aching for gam bling in stocks on credit. If the stocks risa ia va- luo, ali well ; if they ‘all, somebody must lose. The vice of this practice is too plain to ueed elucidation. Aseuming that the free banks in Indiana have been bonest!y manased, and that there uave been no frands practiced, trere does not appear to be any- thing yto justity the crasade which is songht to be got up in Cincinnati against tucse banks. State stocke mst fall far below the preseat figures be , Tailroad, the Centrat New York ratroad, tito va- , Tious railroads along the lakes leading to Chis. ti aay and Gulena road, the Mitinois Centra! an is also to give the | of the country require the corstruction of a railcoad it will Le buili by private enterp.ise as an invest ment. The activity of capital secking profitable employ- ment is so great io this countey that private enter- | prize is usnally abead of the demand. The Eric | , ous otter roads, too numerous to epesify, | have been constructed by individual capitalists 43 | ‘investments. These are (or soon will be) paying | stocks, and have been commenced and completed | quite ss early as the real wants of the country | thy which they pass required; and t:.ere is no- thin the history of the past to show that other works of similar character will not be begua and completed as rapiaiy as the public necessities esball demand them. There is still another objection to this mode of building roads with the proceeds of county and city bondcs—we allude to the increased expense. These | bonds are generally passed off to covtractors, who, in fixing tne price at which they tuke the work, | jeave a Jarge margin for the discount ou these secu- | nities. In general, if states, cities, or counties will | engage in building public works, a prudent economy | sugges’s thata tex should bo laid oa the whol community to meet the instalments as they become As to railronds intended mainly to enhance the | value of lands, the United Siates, being the great Javdbolcer of the West, may with propriety meke grants of land to com 2auies, as ia the case of the !iinois Central road, where the grant of | the United States to the State of Illinois hax not only been the cause of having one of the longest, | most ureful, and expensive roads in the Union built, but the amount of money waich will ba paid to the government for a part will exceed thst which would: have been received fur tue whole of the lends without the grant, and the time in which it will be received is vefy mu -h lessened, We bope t> seo the government persist in this poli- | cy until the great valley of the Mississippi shall bo connected with the Pacific coaxt by oue or more well constructed railroads. How much more beno- ficial to the cause of progress would it be, if Con. gress in itsmunificence should make large appro priations of land to aid ia the accom: plishment of this grand nasonal euterprise rather than to squander tha public domain | in gifts to those who have no chim to the public bounty. The gift and the donee will pest away and leave little or notrace for remen- rance, but the great public structures which the loncal shall have been the means of achieving will milhons of people yet unborn, and illustrats the glory and the vower of the nation that could con- ceive and execute such gigantic and useful works MINING PROPERTY.

We make the preceding assertions boldly, and defy a contratiction. Aad there are other opcrativns, rasging fom those of fair prom a good measure of success; aod of all, our capital- ists in the mass are shamefally neglectful ia view of their own interesta and te rapid developemeat of an importaut potion of our nado il resources. And if we tu n to copper mining, in particular, we are not ashamed to own that a little money, paid ia by parties who can and will hold the property, would domuch good at the preseut time. Toe pe:manent copper shareholders are few ia number, and of jimited resources, as a geveral thiag. Tae hard times tave necessarily sompelied a very slow developement of many new but promisiag veias. The.various stocks are now low in the market, and although we do not often advise any investment in any particular kind of property, we cannot feel | that there is any impropriety in calling the earnest attention of capitalists to the subject of tuese para- gtapbs. But jittle mouey is necessary, and tne in- vestments cen be civided among various concerns. The mapageinents c-n ve aud should be narrowly wat bed, while every information obtained from the mines § ould always be accessible to stockh riders. Would new mer of strength but take hold of mining property ia the right spirit, tue taint of spo ‘ulation tbat bas so often marred its prosye :ta in the minds of tLe conservative, would be apeedily removed.

ARREST OF TWO MEN COARGED WITH AN EXTENSIVE FORGERY IN’ PRUSSIA. On Saturday evening, Stephen S. Ramak, Eeq., coun- fellor at law, arrived here from Poiludelphis, and had sn interview with the Chief of Police, Mr. Matsell, stat- ing th bout twe months ago, the discovery of an im- portaut and very extensive forgery on the City Bank of Bavelen, was kuown to the directors of that insti- tution; apd furthermore, that the partios implicated in the felony had arrived hero and were living in this city. Accordingly, the Chief of Police gave the matter into the han¢s of Capt. Leocard and Capt Brennan, who succeeded, on Tuecday evening in arroatirg two mon,named Richard Sucks, aliae Adolph Hoffman, at their residence, 86 Prince street. It appeare that Sacks alias Hoifmsn, was clerk in tho City Bark of Breslau Prussia; that he, by forger- jes end the alterations of the books, obtained $3,600 from the bank, Md about $9,100 from Guttenberg Brothers, of ‘he some place. In orzer to obtain this money, he forged the booka of the bank u‘tacbed to tue maatcipal corpora- tion of Breslau He commenced a series of forgeries, as it appeared on examining tho buoka, in Decomber, 1853, and continues obtaining money by forging, until the monthof June, 1854. After thus collecting together ag mpch money aa he was able. he left Breslan on the 8th of July with» man nemed Hermann Menzel, and salled for London There he ervived fa se'oty, and atter sojourn. ing there for a tow days proceeded to Liverpool, where, ceedir gly stringent market, were taken by weak parties, These have now fallen into strong hands, ard those sho have been compeiled t» sell at low ratee find difficnlty in replacing their shares, Ta0 steck bas been abused ia the market, and aay quan- tity of fulsebood told reapecting it. The present ad- vance is one of inevitable reaction, as the true vslue is becoming understood. It is entirely se varate from any favorable financial tara, which nece warily improves every specics of sto:k property. Tho To'tec is now worta much more than whee it was teken rapidly at $18. It has cost its prisen; ma ket price, und its ultimate «access, as a proti-peying mire. is now assured.

But it cannot traval far with. ovt doing essential mischief, Tne moet extensive fire within the circumference of a hundred miles, is raging in the woods on the G een Mountains, in the neigiborhood of Ariiugton and Sunderland. The fie commenced five or six days ego, but it did not acquire ite present fury until Suturday right. Since that time it has been advancing ond sorending wi Sm? Seat sendy, | Col having travelle live, over six miles The ae tacle which it presented last nignt to those, who saw it from the valleys was grand beyond de- scription. Looking trom the base of the bills, it seemed ac if the vury heavens were on fire; and as | the flames leaped from tiee to tree, flashing upward | and upward, as they touni new material to feed | upon, pothing conld apgear more terrifyingly mag- | ¥ nifient. The eye could, at a single glance, take in more than 0 miles of lurid flame. The ce- struction of property, in the anape of cord wood, timber, and peeled burk, is very large. Bat the loas will fall woat pearly upoa the owners of the land the value of which consiate chiefly in tne wood stendirg upon it Many thousands of acres mast bave already been det:o ed, and this morning the fire eppeared to rage with as great fury, and to ad- vance with a8 much rapidity, as at apy time since it commenced. several large exw mills were threatened. A large steam mill onone of the moan- taios was in most imminect jeopardy, the fire this morning having approached within half 4 mile, and in cirect line of e Novaing but a rain storm can atop its progress. (From the Concord (N_H.) State Reporter, August 22.) The fire which has been burning for the last fort- pight upon the pliics, east of this city, has ex tended to the highlands betweea Concord and London, and is aeatroying immense quantities of wood ond timber. On Sunday it was raging i the vicinity of the broken ground, aod many mea were out endeavoring to stop its progiess. We have beard the quantity of land ou nt over esti:nated at 2,500 acres. The ground is so dey that this buraing upon th« piaypa is pot a me e +kimming of the leaves upop the gurface, as such fires have been wont to be, but the whale soil, in some instances, is com- letely burnt off, leaving nothi«g but a bed of sind. Gnless there shall be timely ratus, of which there seews little prospect, there can be no telling the amount of damage which will be donc. [From the Springfield, (Masn.,) Republican, Aug. 28.) A disastrous tire was sweeping over the woodlands about three and a half miles west of Chester village, on Tuesday, having spread from asmaill patch wuich ap Irishman was burning over in the vicinity. Our accounts by the last traias on Tuesday eveuing re present tbe fire as cove ing & large tract of land, ‘gon which five hundred cords of cut wood had al- reacy been consumed; and it was believed taat not less than three hundred acres would certaiuly be burned «ver, upon which were several thoussad : —(Roported ‘Taylor. )—Fevst Board—81,600 Lehigh 6's striaps’ faces, give tm 612 & most singu- * Seareat the olty, | ® cords of cut wood that would inevitably fall a prey to the flames. Tue citizens of the surroundit Fa ala were in great alarm, and tho wi which sprupg up fresh and strong ia the afternoon and evening, was driving the fi:e with fearfal rapidity over the wooded bigblands, wnere it would be fed wich immen:e quantities of combustible material. Passengers who came through by the evening train from fobenys eee the scene as one of at srtlio; magnificence. Should tre fire extend much beyon the a'ea above indicated, many farm bhou-es qill be endangered; and at best, the lusa of property must be very heavy. A large firo has been raging for some days on “Wild Cat Hill” and vicinity, in Bernardstor, and at last accounts from two to three hundred acres had been burot over, wita the prospect that a much larger tract would be included. Here, too, a so- rious destruction of proverty is involved. From various other dire tions, we have also ac- counts of dest-uciive fires which rage with incr ed fury in Sonsequrnce of the extreme dry weatser. In Fitchburg and Achbarnham, large fires have oo- curred in the woods, and several hundred cords of ‘wood bave been consu ned. In Tauuton, forty acres have been burned over, occasioning great loss of property to the farmers. TELEGRAPHIC. TERRIBLE FIRES IN THE WOODS OF MAINE—SU?P POSED LO88 OF LIFE.

Yellow Fevor at New Oricans. {From the New Orleans Courier auguet 16 We yesterday visited the Cuarity Hospital, and, under the escort of one of ita courteous officers passed throngh the various wards, We were in- formed that there were at that moment at Icast eighty cases of yellow fever under treatment ia the institution, and that the cases had been rapidly on tbe increase since Sunday night. But few of the cases which came under our observation, seemed to be favirulent type, though most of them appeared to be in the earlier stages of the dis-ase. From well informed sources we are told that the ratio of cases in this hospitul,is to thoss of the whoie city as about one to two. Last week there were, altogether, forty-three interments from ¥, low fever, taking « fractioo over six per day. We think that for the present week the oumber of in- terments from this cause will prove nearer ten per day. Wo are to'd that the first case of fever this year originating io this city, waa that of a msn employed at the bakery of Mr. Lawrence, in the Fourth district; a building rather remote from the river, and that the pe was employed within the building, and was not accnstomed to driving a bread cart; nor did the establishment supply bread to any ship or other vessel. T 1s miu was takea to the Luzenburg Hospital on the lith of July, asd was piaced in the same ward with another case of the dise-se brought from Havana; both men died with black vomit; the resident of the city three hours before the other. ‘The first case @ mitted iato the Caarity Hospital, on the 13th Jaly, was a German who bad come here in a ebip from Rio Janeiro, which had arrived five weeks before. There was no ig fever at Rio when he sailed. trom that time up to the 13th Augnst, there bave been adinitted iatothe Hoapital one hundred and forty-seven cases, of which ef have died, eighteen have been discharged, an: sixty-nine were remaining. Oxe of our most distinguished physicians, a pro- fesaor in tbe Medi al , cousidera the disease as epidemic. According w the usual law as to idemica, it will not probably continue as sac? cher the lst O: tober. As we stated yesterday, the cases in private practic, are mild aod manage- able, and good m«dical attendance and nursing readily overcome it. Jersey City I:.telligence.
