The heavy stockholders, who fare wealthy men, can depress the funds so low that the wmall be are obliged to sell out at alow else they would be completely ruined. Thus the rise and fall of stocks 1s carried on by afew men for the purpose of accomplishing their wicked ends. ‘34 was in this manner that Mesers. Carpantier and Grelet ‘wore ruined, and that all the they entered Mmto fell to the ground. They ged the cash capital to back them up, and when the stocks fell they were un- sustained, and fell. against the Muaner, for they most economical marner. They also > ‘were not public officers, but were merely the employés of @ private institution. Parot says he bought the stock from them in good faith, and that al) the m« he is Bow posseesed cf is the proceeds of an honest life. He says that he left France with 57,000 francs, 45,000 of which was the proceeds of the sale of his horse establish- rent in Paris, and for the trath of which he has got a Dill of gale, 16,000 francs of which is the private pruper- ty of his wife, and the remaining 2,700 francs he borrow ed from some of bis friends in Paris. Eugene Grelet was emplioyed_by the petting asa clerk, and was stationed at Bou! , Sta salary of 1,200 franca per annum. He left the employment of the com. ly two months go, and went to Paris with Be. intention ot proceeding to America, There he bie brother, Louis, who id he also ‘wes coming to this country, and intimated that they bad better proceed together. It was not until they bad reached London that Eugene was made as- qusinted with nts brother’s position. Grelet says he sincerely regrets what has taken place, on account of his family and friends, who are very re- apectable. Many of his relatives occupy a high potition $ Paris, and are deeply pained at his conduct.

LAURA KEENE’S NEW THEATRE—MASANIELLO AT NIBLO’S GARDEN—THE ITALIAN OPERA—THINGS aT THE CITY THEATRES. ‘The new theatre—Laura Keene’s Varietiee—now in Process of erection by Mr. John M. Trimble, in Broadway, wear Houston street, is rapidiy approaching completion. ‘Bt ts situated on the lots numbered 622 and 624 Broadway, fand bounded on the east by Crosby street. The audito- rium will seat two thousand five hundred persons. There ‘will be a spacious parquette, balcony, boxes and upper fier. In the lower part of the house the uniform price of fifty cents will be the charge for all the seats, with no extra charge for reserved places. The stage is seventy- four feet in depth by fifty-five in width; the auditorium is seventy-four feet by sixty, and the extreme height from Parquette to dome fifty-five feet. The house will be built in the most substantial manner, and deco- rated with that taste and elegance for which the Girectress is distinguished. Mr, Trimble has pushed forward the work with his accustomed energy, and the Foot will be put on during the present week. The the- atre will be dnished by the 26th of October, and be opened about the Ist of November. Mr, Trimble owns the theatre, an¢ has leased |; to Miss Keene for five years. ‘He desires uz to state, for the purpose of at once patting Bstop to rumors that bave been circulated in theatrical eircies, that Mies Keene having fulfilled ber agreements ‘with bim to tho last dollar, it is her theatre for the time specified above, and that all reports to the contrary are ‘without the sligbtest foundaticn in fact. Miss Keene is at preee nt playing at the Holliday street theatre, Baltimore, ‘and notwitheianding the fact that the prices to all parts Of the house are double the usual rates, the theatre is pightly crowded to excess. Her company at the Varicties ‘Will include some of the best artists in the country, and with her talcrt, popularity and indomitable perseverance her success seems to be beyond peradventure.

Marctzek has come to an open rupture with the stockholders, and absolutely refuses to ruin himself for their benefit. The terms upon which the house was finally offered to him wore such as would prevent him from ever receiving any reward for his labor; and itis Ro small task to direct the Italian opera, anywhere. ‘There is no man who will step into the breach made by the sudden abdication of Maretzek, and it seems pro- able that the most elegant of our places of public amuse- ment will remain closed for an indefluite period.

She eminently deserves the support of the public—the ladies especially. Mr. Edwin Booth arrived yesterday from California. Political Gossip. Mr. Buck anan recently said, on being asked to address aclub, that being a candidate political etiquette demanded his silence. Mr. Breckinridge, on the contrary, ia stump- ing it wherever he can get a chance. Who of these gea- tlemen is “right en"this goose 7” Resolutions were unanimously adopted at the repub- can’headquarters, in Wilmington, Delaware, on the 19th inst., embracing the following propositions :—That the constitution of the United States guarantees to the peo" ple the inalienable rights of ‘life, liberty, property, freedom of speech and the press; the inviolability of the ballet box; the right to bear arms, an@to assemble peaceably for « redress of grievances.” That all these rights had been violated in Kansas, and that the politi cians who upheld them were unworthy the confidence of tbe people. The resolutions protest against the use of the federal arms to aid doctrines so disgraceful to hu- manity, and define slavery as a local and State institu- tion, its existence being independent of the conatitation, and that Congress has nothing to do with it; tbat as slavery ia a “local and State institution,” the slave “resumes hig natural condition of freedom the moment he is taken by his master beyond the jurisdiction of the State that legislates the right to hold him as property’? The eighth resolution asserts that as States only can ‘‘in- stitute or abolish slavery,’’ property in man is not g: anteed by the federal constitution, but is merely a ‘‘pri lege granted” by the State sovereignty. Hence it follows that a ‘State may abolish it without intringing the consti- tutional rights of property.” The ninth resolution declares that the national character of slavery and its prohibition from the Territory ceded by Virginia were demonstrated by the ordinance of ’87 and the law of Con- gress of '69, and sanctioned by Washington, Jefferson, Madison and Monree, and that, therefore, “the objects of the republican party are not sectional, but national.’” ‘The tenth proclaims the necessity of devotion to the con- stitution, and resisting all attacks upon it, cither from the South or North. The New Orleans Datly Oreole is no believer in the Northern demosracy, which, it alleges, occupies “ground more hostile to the South than any Wilmot proviso ever preeented.”” Poth Mr. Buchanan and Mr. Breckinridge, says the Delta, have “endorsed in the most emphatic manner” the ‘‘odiaus doctrine” of squatter sovereignty. The Buchanan presses are hard pushed to name the battle ground where the Presidential election isto be fought. First it was in Maine, then in New York, then in Pennsylvania, Upwards of fifty thousand dollars were raised in this city a few weeks since, at the urgent call of certain well known leaders, to have this last battle fleld well fortified. But the New Orleans Delta of the 21st contains information from its Washington correspondent, that Fremont ‘‘ will carry Pennsylvania like a whirl- wind,” and that “there is but one hope, and that is in the Western democracy.”’ ‘The West is the great scene of action.” We wait impatiently to know which is the particular spot now pitched upon for the fight. The Boston Post of the 27th, speaking of the Kansas ‘business, says, “The vile calumniators know that not one of the unconstitutional laws has ever been enforced.” How, then, we ask, have so many persons been arrested and imprisoned for the pretended violation of them? What are the dragoons chasing Lane for, but to enforce these very unconstitutional laws? The Vicksburg Financial Bzpress of the 20th, says, “We really hope, if Fremont shall be elected, that he ‘will disappoint the country by rising above sectionalism, and make himself the President of the nation”? That's precisely what he wili be. He is at this moment the only candidate not bound to*eectional interests, as Buchanan and Fillmore beth are, The Petersburg South Side Democrat (Va.) says, “Draw out of the constitution the idea of the equality of the States, and of their respective citizens, and it is like the physical body after the immortal spirit has winged its flight.”? ‘The theory of this proposition is good enough, Dut it is interpreted badly by the party of the “South Side’? The constitution does not authorize the drawing out of women and children from their homes, setting fre to their dwellings, or shooting ther husbands and fathers, merely for having opinions in regard to that instrument. The “physical bodies” murdered im Kansas, and the scores of ‘ immortal spirite’’ sent to their last account by relentless ruffians who kill men for their sentiments, are but poor evidences of regard tor law, the constitu. tion, or even humanity, The Richmond Enqwirer of the 26th discusses the ques- tion of seceesion with becoming gravity. “If the south tmmediately after Fremont's election secedes in a body, the North may pause ere tt appeals to arms.” Thore are some objections to this, After *Fremont’s election’ » will be ® constitutional Prosident, and will know no , Wert, North or South. Iu the neat place, tho South not secede in m body at any time, Tennessee, Ken- tucky, Deis ware and Maryland already refuse to be fron tier States for the {ndignant gentlemen of South Carolina and Virginia, The whole tone of public sentiment there ainst tue idea. The natural, moral, and political ob- stacles present themselves insuporabiy—also some yory valuable rivere, canals and ratiroads. ‘The Weston, Missouri, Argus of the 19th expresses the hope that it may soon seo ‘the bodies of Lane and his leaders in the rebellion dangling to the tree tops of Kansas.’ A very Christian like wish, expressed in not the best grammar. Is this wish endorsed by the Buchanan party of the North? What says the Journal of Commerce, for examplo ? ‘The Memphis Daily Appeal, 1 Buchanan paper, claims Millard Vilimore as one of its party, because be said ‘in the event of Fremont’s election, the South ought not to remain tn the Uniot ‘The Detroit Advertiser asserts upon what it deems the most positive testimony that the Fremont electoral ticket im Pennsyivania will cross the Allegbaaies with 60,000 majority. The New Orleans Delia of Sept. 19 complains bitterly of the “Janus faced politicians which bave injured Mr. Bu- chanan so seriously, of the golden face turned to the North and the brazen face to the South.’ This kind of support from ,a democratic paper is curtous, very. It also says, on the 18th, that ‘the possibility of Fremont’s election {s fast assuming the appearance of a probability.” No doubt ot it. The detractors of Fremont have asked contemptaously, what were his services while in the United States Senate! The California Chronicle, of Sept. 6, says that during the vory short period for which he held his seat he intro. duced and advocated ‘seventeon post routes and eighteen other bills for the benefit of California,” a bill “for a Pa- cifle wagon road,”’ &e., &c, He aleo opposed the propo- sition to tax mining claims, and adyoeated free labor; and if “he had beon continued at his post, California would this day be furtaer advanced in all the essentials of State prosperity fthaa twenty yoars of Gwin and Wel lerism, with all their political machinery, could bring to i.” The Baltimore Patriot, mays the following named gon. tlomen have been selected as (he Fremont electoral ticket for Maryland: POR THR STATE AT Lane, Francis P.

George Steers, the celebrated shipbuilder, whose death by @ full trom @ carriage we announced last Thursday, was buried yesterday, with appropriate and impressive services, near the Firemen’s Monument in Greenwood Cemetery. ‘The occasion called together over 6,000 persons in the vicinity of ihe late residence of the deceased, 91 Cannon street, to participate in the obsequies; and though they were conducted with great simplicity and without any Ostentation, they showed how deep and general was the regret at Mr, Steers’ death in the prime of manhood, and almost in the beginning of his career. Among those who participated in the funeral services were Mayor Wood, E. K. Collins, Captain West, who, it is eupposed, will be the commandant of the Adri. atic; Captain Hudson, the probable commandant of the Niagara, both vessels built by Mr. Steers; Com- modore Bigelow, of the Navy Yard, and all the heads of the departments at that place. Mike Walsh, Daniel E. Sickles, John Cochrane, Charles T. Losey, Aus- trian Consul General; the Presidents and officers of the Mechanica’ Institute, and other noted citizens, Among the societies in attendance were the Masonic fraternity, who mustered in large numbers, and the Ship Joiners’ Socie- ty. The street, as far as the eye could reach, was densely crowded, and in the assemblage were many with whom Mr. Steers had associated in the dockyard for years. The coffin' containing the body was placed in the hall- way. It waeof rosewood, lined with white satin, and was silver mounted, It bore the following inscription on asilver plate— Died september 26, 1856, Aged 37 years, 1 month and 10 days arennnneoe ‘The corpse was dresed in ® biack cloth suit; with vest and cravat. The face was uncovered during the service, and the forenead was mach bruised by the fall which occasioned his death. ‘The religious services commenced at one o’clock, and consisted ot the reading of the service of the di ac cording to the Ey ypal ritual. Rev. Dr. Clapp, of the Church of the Nativity, and Rey. Dr. Parker, of the Mari- ners’ Floating church, foot of Pike street, officiated. At the close of the service Rev. Mr. Parker announced that funeral discourse would be preached by bim on the next Sabbath, in St. George’s churca, corner of Beekman and For hours before the service commenced a continuous stream of people passed through the hall to see the de- ceased, and atthe conclusion so general wat the desire totake alast look at his features, that the coffin was placed on the sidewaik, and the people in attendance al- jowed to file past.

The line cf march was down Cannon street to Grand, down Grand to Broadway, aud from thence to South ferry, or the way to Greenwood. On arriving atthe Cemetery the concluding portion of the Episcopal burial service was read over the grave, and the Masonic rites were also performed. The whole scene was impressive, and was a deserved ovation to a man whose ski'l bas reflected credit upon our country. The untimely death of Mr. Steers was noticed by several of our city clergymen yesterday. Rey.

In the early part of the week there was a good deal of firmpess in prices, and holders appeared to be contident of an advance. The movement in Erie at- tracted some attention, and it was carried on for # time with vigor; but there was no outside response, and it be- came hard up bili work. Towards the middle of the week, indications of an active exportation of specie ap- peared, and the large shipment from Boston, on Wednes- day, created some apprehension on the Stock Exchange. Since that time the market has had a strong downward tendency, and prices close? vesterday considerably lower thap on the previous week. Ail this we have anticipated, ‘and frequently predicted. We have foreseen just this state of things in the finunctal world, and have time and again pointed out the cause and effect. The former has been operating for many months, while the latter bas just commenced working. It was impos- sible to look upom the extravagant extent of our foreign importations for the past six months withou: becoming convinced that when pay day arrived no ordi. nary revulsion in the money market would be the result. ‘Those who are not prepared for a very serious contrac- tion in credits, and a very serious stringency in the mo mey market, have not closely watched the course of events, and have paid little attention to the signs of the times, and will soon find themselves in a very difficult and dangerous position—one which they will not be able to extricate themselves from without severe losses. All this could haye been avoided with even common pru- dence, Wo have had for the past six or eight months a very favorable money market. Millions of specie have been drawn from the government treasury by unusual and ex- traordinary events, and the supply of capital, in the ab sence of maturing liabilities, has been abundant. We have found a market for our securities abroad at good prices, and 4 serics of the most fortunate circumstances have combined to give activity to business. Under & 0b fa- vorable auspices, our impo: (ors have flooded the country with foreign manufactores. In a period of about eight months our importations were tens of millions greater than ever before known in the same time. So long as money was not required to pay for these immense imports, the public mind seemed to be at ease, and accumulation of indebtedness went on almoet unperceived. The day of settlement bas at last arrived. We are now called upon to pay up; and the shipment of upwards of four miilions of dollars in specie in the space of two weeks, gives us some idea of the extent of the amount due. The banks have for some time past been preparing themselve: for this movement. ‘They have been calling in their loans on time and placing them on call, where they could be made available a} a moment’s notice; and they have already commenced making them so. Yesterday there was an active demand upon the brokers for liquidation, and large amounts were called in. This is likely to be continued with even great er force; and the effect can be well imagined. The banks are pursuing precisely the course we anticipated. It {+ the same they pursue every year at about this time; and stock speculators for a rise, of any experience, might have calculated upon it with the greatest certainty. It is too late now for those who are on the wrong side to place themselves right without loss. It is not, however, too late to avoid more serious sacrifices; and the wisest will be the soonest out. The next bank statement must show an important docrease in deposits and specie. It is the impression that the specie reserve will not be much over eleven millions of dollars— @ figure lower than bas been reached for about ten months, The lowest specie point reached last year (1855) ‘Was $9,919,124 on the 29th of September.
