[From toe Jourmai acd Ovorter, Oot. £2 | As various, and in some instances incorrect state- ments have been made concerning the different ma- nufacturing corporations in this city, we have deemed it advisable to present a view of their pre- sent actual condition, #0 far as possible. Accord- ingly, we have the counting-rooms of the various corporations and obtained our information from the rs connected with the different con- panies. The following summary may therefore be relied upon as strictly correct: — The Hemilton janufacturing Company have stopped 15,000 out of 48,000 spindles, and run but five days in each week. The Print Works are in full operation, but run only five days. On the Appleton, two-thirds of the works are in operation, they run only five days per week. The Lawrence have stopped 650 out of 1,280 looms, and expect to stop 125 more within a short time. They are now running six days, but expect soon to stop one day per week. Notice hae given that there would be a reduction in the price o' labor, but the per cent has not been fixed npon. The looms stopped on this corporation were those on which heavy cloths were made, #0 that the re duction ia the number of pounds manufactured is nearly one-half. On the Saffolk one-half of the works are stopped, and the others run six days per week. They bave not reduced the price of labor, but expect to very soon. The whole number of looms on the Tremont is 710, of whieh ty Red — 374. They have received I notice that wages will be reduced 12) per cent, commencing on the November payment. On the Merrimack, one mill in which sheeti have been made, is stopped. All the other works are —s six wee week. They have reduced rice of labor, but the reduction is not the same on all the work. It is from 10 to 16 per cent, and will take effect in November. All the mills on the Boott are stopped, and we could not learn when they are to start up again. aapeel tah tent 0 out of 1,227 poms ae , and the ot fe running but four days ld week. The staternent made by us last Monday, t the directors of the Massachusetts Corporation had voted to , Was not correct. On the Prescott 163{out of 671 looms are stopped, and the others are running bat four days per week. Of the Middlesex Company we are authorized to make no statement, except that they have not yet decided what they shall do. The Lowell Company bave stopped all their cotton works, ing more than three-fourths of the worke in the cai department are running five days in a week. This company has also given notice that the wages will be inced. =The redaction is not uniform, but varies on different kinds of work. NEW BRUNSWICK.

The about, the Yankees buying up our bank notes ata premium, is the sheerest nonsense, for two reasons. 'The first is that it would no longer pay to do so; the next, that under no circumstances could such a business be pushed to any extent. MISSOURI. GOVEBNOR’S MERBAGB. As the late message of the (iovernor of Missour relates wholly to financial matters, we give it en- tire:— At your adjournment in March last, I did not an- ticipate that circumstances would arise which would impose upon me the duty, in obedience to the con- stitution, of recommending to your consideration o1 ures for the promotion of the welfare of the State, than those indicated in tac last message. The country then seemed to be in a condition of genera! prosperity. Our currency wes apparently sound. Commerce sgemed to be to healthy channels. Manufacturing enterprise was vigorous aud contident. Agricalture, the basis of ali mutesial prosperity, promised to yield abundant returns, and individual diligence and labor repead their fair reward. There was nothing to bewoken the crisis which has come upon us. Our railroad enter- prises, it was hoped, would move steadily on to completion, abundant means having been provided by the liberality of the General Assembly, and our banking institutions, it was believed, would farnish a circulation, adequate to the commercial and industrial wants of our people. Nothing coald exhibit the fallacies and dangers of a credit and banking system, carried beyond their legitimate limits, more clearly than the present state of affairs, com with the confident a: pations indulged in by every class of the communi. ty, up to the very moment when the storm burst upon the country. Although we have experienced aimilar things at various periods during our exist- ence as a confederacy, we were, in this instance, as we ever have been, prone to forget the calamities of the past, and to hope against hope for the fatare. The results are as natural and necessary as the re- sults of known physical causes depending upon the operations of immutable laws. ‘There are limits within which the banking system may not only be safe but beneficial; and until we provide the appro- priate means for confining them within these limits, we may periodical convulsions similar to the ope under which we are now suffering. They would not be so jamentable it the run arising from them was visited only upon those whose misconduct has pro- duced them ; bat, unfortunately, they generally escape and shift tbe burthen upon the shoulders of the producing and laboring classes. Tous the most disastrous consequence produced bas been the check given to our railroad system, and the evident deterioration of the credit of tae State. Our prospects are ao dependent upon these that the present condition of things, in my opinion, imposes upon us serious and important daties. The first of these is to take such judicious and decisive measures as will secure, beyond all question, the honor ard credit of the State; the second, to devise such amendments to our railroad system as will enable the com; to secure what has been done, and ultimately to complete these ay tiem works; and the third is, to place such additional guards upon the banking system as will confine it within legitimate limits, and tend to expel from oar bor- ders all depreciated paper. In the measuiés tending to these ends all of us are interested—the people at large, the stockholders in the roads, and the stockholders in the banks; and I will pot presume that any one will be so wanting in patriotism and public spirit as to oppose them. What is done I hope can be done with the cordial concurrence of all concerned. To effect the oojects contemplated, several dis- tinct steps ought to he taken. Some of them are exclusively and absolutely within the power of the General Assembly, and some may require the assent of che railroad and banking companies. To appre- ciate them they must be enumerated and considered separately, and as a whole; for they have their sev- eral merits, as well as a mutua! dependence on each other. Ihbey are as follows, v: First—-That no more State ponds should be issued and sold at ruinous rates of discount, Sscond—That a tax abould be levied, which, with the surplus reve- wae, and the two and three per cent funds, would be sufficient to cover the whole amount of interest on the bonds of the State. Third—That the State should have a representation in the several boards in proportion to the amounts of the bonds she has now or may hereafter issue in aid of the roads. Fourth— That in future the bonds of the State should be dis posed of by an agent appointed by the Executive and acting under tne supervision of the Governor, the anditor and Treasurer, and proceeds thereof delive to the officers of the compa- pies Fifth it the Board of Pablic Works should be arme’ ith such additional powers as wi! enable them to penetrate into all the details of the management of the roads, and to exercise a saluta- y infinence upon and supervision over them. Sixth— That some one of the banks in the city of St. Louis should be made & Ng ot p ome in which all the baoks and branc'es shall keep a saificiency of means to protect their issues at par value. S That all banks should be required to pab their weekly statements on the same day, and to show the amount due to depositors, and the amount of their discounts, in addition to the items nov re- aired Bed to be published. Eighth—That it shall be duty of the Bank Commissioners, when- ever a bank or branch bank fails to redeem its cireu- lation at the counter of the clearing honse, to close the said bank or branch bank in the manner now provided by law. Some of these measures are exclusively within the com, cy of the General Assembly—otbers may require the aswent of the companies. I will not betieve that measures so just and necessary will meet with ition from them. It is doe to the peple the State, who have so liberally extended s helping hand to the roads, and such liberal charters to the banks, as well %* to the character of the sto:kbolders and diroctors of the companies, that no opposition shall be made to an arrangement #0 fair and equitable. That no more bonds should be issued and sold,at the present rain- ons rates of discount, I presome will hardly oe doubt- ed by any one. The recent sacrifices of them in the Eastern market, when it is known everywhere that our resour ample. and our character withcut a blemish, it sto me, are sufficient to aptisfy the whole community that this should be onr line of policy. The levy of a tax to provide for the pay- ment of the interest on State bonds is absolutely in- dispensable to protect the credit of the State, what- ever may be the future policy of the government and the companies in the further prosecution of the work. In the present embarrassed condition of the finances of the country, the ability of the companies to meet the interest may be doubted by capitalists, but with the fund proposed to be set apart, conti- dence wil! be inspired. That the States should have a representation in the boards of directory in proportion to the amount of bonds issued, or to be issued, | am very certain is not only just, but the only measure that can give satisfaction t» the people. None of the red lockholders in these enterprises would be willing to invest’their means in any undertaking in the man agement of which they could have no voice The people of the State should exercise this common prodence, and there is no ground for finding fault with them for it. Recent occurrences have warned va of the imprudence and folly of permitting our bonds to be hawked about and sold at rainons rates of discount. Arming the Board of Public Works with additional powers, whilst it will inspire more public confidence, cannot be objectionable to the partice interested in the roads, The measures recommended in relation to our bankiog system aresuch as are believed to have pro- ven beneficial in other States, wher ment has been tried. Our banking « incipiency, and we cannot be too cantioas in sur rounding it with all the safeguards suggested by the experiences of the past or the exigencies of the present. In all contingencies, and under all cir cumstances, a specie basis must be maintained. Unless this can be accomplished, it. will be better to dispense with such institutions altogether, and to rely exclusively upon the operations of the knowa laws of supply and demand. It is feared that the embarrassme nta and alarm now prevalent will indave many of our citizens to insist upon temporary legis lative expedients, as pailiatives of distress, Au ex perience has proven that such legislation can only ultimate in the production of far greater difficnities than those it is intended to alleviate. | cannot, therefore, recommend any interference with the obli gations now existing between onr citivens. The evils will cure themselves mach sooner, if lett to the progress of events As a matter of publie and permanent policy, how: ever, the present is a most auspicious time to revise and amend the laws relative to the rights and daties of brokers and private bankers, In point of fact, they exercise the influence of public matitutions and should be vigilantly guarded. I am impressed with the opinion that when they suapend payment for -. reason whatever, their assets should be laced in the hands of a truatee, to ba rquitably dis ributed bop their creditors. Biis I betieve would be an effectual check, and I knew of nothing abort of it which will The meneuzes indicated are such ae present thegy- active and contined | ives to my mind from a situation and circumstances. The attention of the Board of Public Works has companin, othe rege and manner of te contrac: co! to the manner of c tion, and their general condition. It is believed that they will have their report ready in due time, to whieh I invite your special attention. I have no reason to believe that the legislation herein recommended will prove to be unacceptable to the railroad companies, or to those interested in or Ralieve the people of ital cit 1 leve of our capital city, as wel by the people of Nite State, will cordially approve of com. There must be, on the part of the Legislature, prudence, discretion and forbearance; and on the part of the companies a hearty acquiescence in what is deemed essential to the preservation of the public credit. If all concerned will actin a ies conciliatory and forbearifig spirit, all will be well. If the railroad companies shal! fai! to give ftheir assent to propositions so necessary 98 those recom: mended, or shall fail to comply % i exiting laws, it will become the duty of the Exe utive to enforce the lien, and dispose of the roads to the highest bidder.
