CONSEQUENCES OF THE MONBY CRISIS ON TRADE IN ENGLAND. ged the London Chronicle, Oct. 22. We shall obtain a very incomplete idea of the conse- quences likely to result from the present crisis in the United States, if they are considered merely in reference to their monetary aspects. The suspension of banks, the failure of mercantile houses on both zides of the Atlantic, and the drain of gold from England, are,no doubt, the phenomena calculated chietly to arrest immediate atten- tion, later development, are certain to follow, and should be duly appreciated by the commercial public, both here and in America. Que very formidable consequence of the catas- trophe which has ruined, for the moment at ail evenia, so many of the’ largest trading and manu- facturing establishments in the States, will be the sudden dismissal of several thousand employes and operatives, who with their families must, we fear, be subjected to severe pyvations during the forthcoming winter. The prospect 8f seeing a large class of indus- trious fellow citizens exposed, from no fault of their own, to the miseries of destitution, has already excited much sympathy throughout the chief cities of the Union. This Visitation is the more deplorable, because it has originated in a crisis, which at the same time terribly cripples the means of those wealthier members of society who would otherwise have been most ready to affyrd rolief.

It is noticed as igre feature that the operations of speculatora for a in the American stock markets, by which the panic was at first aggravated, have ceased for some time past. Of late the crash in the stock ann has been precipitated by bona fide sales for cash, As another consequence of this universal rush for money, tho markets for every description of produce have sustained a further important fall, the full extent of which can — pg gathered from the accounts in the public journals. Private advices report instances in which hold- ers of sugar and other produce offer it for sale at prices even absurdly low. Current engagements must of course be met, and even if it be necessary that the accumula- tions of years be swept away, the sacrifice must be sub- mitted to ag a less evil than suspension of payment, ‘The point that immediately concerns us is, that this offering of produce and securities at an inordinate depreciation is cer- tain to attyact English and continental capital, and to occ: sion a prolonged depression of the exchanges be- tween America Europe. Every ‘nglishanan who is “tempted by the low price to pick, up a few of the American bonds or shares whic! only afew months back stood at so different a value in le market, contributes to this process. As gold is at- racted frog this side one new element of relief will be ntroduced—ef course to our temporary inconyenicnce— ntothe American market. The worst of the panic may not be overeven yet. From one end of the United States to the other the public mind is thoroughly imbued with a feeling ‘ot blind alarm, and no one can venture to assert that the fit of tem ry insanity is yet exhausting itself. Yet every one feels confident that this excessive panic, like all anion: of similar intensity, ig merely transiont, and has ween greatly “overdone,” and that when the tirn comes the rebound will be almost eqnally astonishing, Large for- tunes will doubtless be realized by hundreds of operators lucky en ament. t h to possess.and to employ money at the right us -- ernest wo Cort tee that will 8) pass of the ‘Cnion, which (uence » the disturbing inft Yong felt, and the presture upon our money kept up through the effect upon the exchanges. , commenting upon the rise in the bank rate of discount to 7 per cent, we remarked that ‘If to avert a foreign drain it should become necessary to raise the value of money to eight or even nine per cent, why should panic ensue?” It is most gratifying to observe that confidence in the general soundness of our commercial position is daily gaining ground. The symptoms indicative of an approach to panic were confined to an early period of the crisis, and have since disappeared. It is universally recog- nized that our mouetary condition must inevitably be affected by the extraordinary conyulsion on the other side of the Atlantic, but that the protective measures now necessary will not be of prolonged duration, since they will be rescinded directly the foreign pressure is remov- ed. Cases of commercial embarrassment will undoubted: ly eceur, since many firms here will be involved in a portion of the lossess sustained in America. Moreover, cach stringent phase of the money market brings wo the xround some weak houses, which may be said to exist only through the forbearance of their creditors, and the removal of which really adds to the strength of the gene- val commercial situation, The number of such firms is believed to be at ent unusually small, and this is another feature which strongly encourages the belief that the nation will pass through the present crisis with unim- paired resources, and with credit raised the higher in proportion to the suddenness and severity of the ordeal successfully encountered. {From the Manchester Guardian, Oct. 23.] ‘We are desirous of correcting an error into which our city correspondent was led by a rumor which was very prevalent on the London Stock Exchange on Tuesday evening, to the effect that the Bank of England had on that day thrown out all American paper.” We are well assured that the rumor was untrue, and had its origin in the fact that some American bills, known or supposed to be con- nected with inteuded shipments of specie to the United Siates, were refused discount—a measure which bas been adopted by the bank on several former occasions.

The tollowing letter from Hamburg w the London Post throws @ light on the ing of the monetary crisis in that city and in Bremen — The pressure on our money market became much more stringent when the telegraph brovght the itelligence of the Bank of England having made a further advance in their rate of discount, and even for the most unob- Jectionable paper it has been quite impossible to obtain ‘eosh on lower terms than eight per cent per anuim, while many, who to mect their engagements would readily have given ten per cent for good, but not select bills, foutrd that they cond not get them converted into money on any terms, and the consequener has been that heavy sacrifices of goods of vicious kinds have been freely made to meet the exigencivs of the hour. At Bremen the tight near has, if possible, been still more severe, for as the di reet intercourse between that city and the United States is comparatively greater than that which is carried on be: tween America and this city, they have been in addition to many adverse circumstances from the monetary and commercial disorganisation in thé chief cities of the Union which has latter!y preeailed. Voth here and there however, the evil has been increased by the almost simul- taneous announcement, from official authority, that the punctual payment of the call on the Rassian ‘railways, which fatls due in December would be rigorously enforced ; ond a, from the financial connection of Mesera. stieglita with Hamburg, and with Germany generally, a consider able portion of these shares is held here both by private partics and public companies, this intimation has come vpon them at a very inconverfent time, end may yet lead to much mischief.

My position on these questions was elaborated in various specches in different portions of the State during the late canvass, and extensively circu- Jated in published form. I make @ 8i1 re- ply to.your 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th interrogatories, and am, therefore, opposed to the distribution of the proceeds of the public lands or of the lands themselves to the States, to ‘aid in the construction of roads and canats.’’ To your 8th, I state that lam not in favor of re-opening the African slave trade. To your 9th, T state that [see no occasion for repealing the neutrality laws, though I hold this on open question, which may be controlled in future by the policy pursued by other governments. In reply to your 10th interrogatory, [haye to say that Ido not hoid to the constitutional right of secession, inasmuch as, in my opivion, secession is @ revolutionary remedy, which, however, in tolerable oppression or aggression upon the rights of any State or people may justify. To your th interrogatory, I reply that I do believe thai the Legislature has the right to instruct Senators in Congress, und that it is their duty to obey or resign. ‘To your last interrogatory, Ireply that the amendments of the federal constitution referred to by you, as favored by Mr. Jefferson and General Jackson, and more recently by Governor Johnson, have always met the approval of my judgment; but in view of the existence of the black republican organization, with its aims and purposes, I cannot commit myself to the policy, at least so long as in my judgment the preseut danger of sectional collisions ex- ists, of advocating a change ot the federal constitution for the purpose of incorporating with it those amendments.

The inmates being totally unarmed and unsuspecting, the re- pape be being Killed Se en tad any man, Jobn Eagan, 'y i ly wound- ed. The Mutter: "Thomas ue, stabbed in the left breast with a di ten on the head with clubs, though not considered —— injured; John Col- Vert, skull violently fractured, probably mortally stabbed in the back; Richard Coleman, # drayman, dan- ‘rously cut in the breast and battered about the head; SBranney knocked down with a rock and stabbed in he thigh; James Smith and John Riley, severely wounded with slung shots and clubs; James Murphy Joba De. vaughan, shockingly wounded by the same means; and ey and Thomas Devine, slightly wounded. ‘cis had a very harrow escape from the ball of ‘a pistol which grazed his neck,as he ran back through he room of Mrs. Peter Rhoda, ih. the store of whose hus- band some of th nes occurred. The store was adjoin- ng the coffee house, and the ball which missed Greis came near hitting the bed on which Mrs. Rhoda was lying. The premises al the store and coffee house are stained with lood wherever the inmates who fired were overtaken. After the assailants thus finished their attack, they were pursued by Sergeant Dryden, with a ‘of watchmen, but without effect. They next formed into a body on New Levee and Tchoupitoulas streets, along which they com mitted a few trifling assaults. They also made some de- monstration upon a coffee house on 3t. Charles street, but ‘no one was injured. ‘According to the accounts of Brannegan, who was taken to the Charity Hospital, there was no quarrel or provoca- tion which could have led to those acts of violence which we have detailed, As the assailants wore ail masked, or otherwise disguised, there ts no clue to their identity, and the affair must consequently, for the present, remain & mystery. It is to be hoped, however, that a coroner's in quest, which was begun yesterday, and will probably be cone! to-day, may lead to the detection of the enactors of #0 fearful a tragedy. , and severely Thestrical and Musical Matters.

Chamberlain.—The defendants aro proprietors of a hotel in thie eity, known aa the ‘“Hadson River House.” On the 28th of May last a servont of the plaintiif was a guest ‘at that establishrent, and on the same day deposited with the barkeeper $135 for safe keeping. ‘The servant on previous occasions had done the samo thing, to the knowledge of the defendants. On the following day the gnest went for his money, but found that the barkeepor had ran away with his deposit. It appeared in evidence that the barkeeper was in the habit occasionally, and in the absence of other parties, of taking charge of the gene- ral business affairs of the house, The money was never returned by the absconding barkeeper, whereupon a demand for the same was made on the defendants, who refused te pay it. This suit is bronght for its recovery Tn deciding the case a Thompson said that at common Jaw an inkeeper is bound to kéep safe the goods of his ests deposited within the inn; and that he would be able for them, even if they were stolen. His liability attaches as well for the loss of money aa for ordinary ‘and chattels, His responeibility extends to all the servants and domestics in his house: Itis not neosssary that the goods or money shoul be left with the proprictor himself, It is seficient if they be placed within the house, The liabilities of au innkeeper are the same as that of common carriers—they are to be regarded aa in surers of the goods left to their care and keeping. Upon the facts in this case the plaintiff must baye judgment for | $195 and costs. ‘The Recent Stave Case tn Cincinnati. THE SLAVES SURKENDERED AND TAKEN TO KENTUCKY. From the Cincinnati Gazette, Noy. 4. | lay morning that three slaves, a man | y ‘0 girls of the ages of ten and'twelve | years, claimed as the A ny Od Mr. Thornton Withers, | of Fauquier county, Virginia, ‘been arrested on a writ ‘of habeas corpus, while stopping on a boat at the landing, | in transitu trom St. Louis to the residence of their master | in Verginia. The writ was granted by Judge Burgoyne, of the Probate Court, and the slaves ‘were brought before | him on Monday afternoon, but on application of the | counsel of Mr. Withers, the case was continued until yes- | terday, and tho slaves were committed to the care of Mr. | Darius Eggleston, as guardian, and taken to his residence on Ninth street. The proceedings of Monday closed with this. ‘Yesterday morning, however, Mr. Withers, who owns the “property ,"” swore out a writ of habeas corpus before Judge Carter,’ of the Common Pleas, alleging that his Slaves were illegally restrained of their liberty; that they owed him service in Virginia, and as their custodian, he asked that they be returned to his possession, In com- | pliance with the writ, the slaves were given into | the custody of Sheriff Glass, who conveyed them to a room in the Court House, adjoining ‘the Court of Judge Carter, The hearing was aj pointed for three o'clock, and at that hour, while hun- dreds who were not aware of the second writ of habeas corpus, were waiting in the Probate Court and aroand the | Court House, excitedly discussing the question, the threo slaves were brought before Judge Carter, who propounded | pP4 the question to each:— “Are you a slave?” “Lam.” “Are you restrained of your liberty?” | “Tam not,” ee you wish to go with your master?’ Tdo.” “You are at liberty to go where you please.”” Judge Carter then directed tho Sheriff to hand oyer the slaves to the custody of Mr. Withers, aud they were im- mediately rushed ont of the court room, put into an ex- press wagon in at the door, and driven with speed | to the Vine. street ferry, put on board the Queen Citygapd in « few minutes were landed on the Kentucky side 6 river, and taken to the Barlow House in Newport. A small crowd was present at the ferry, who hooted and shouted, but no attempt at a reacue was made; and Mr. Withers, not a little anxious and excited himself, rejoiced much in the repossession of bis human chattels. ‘The sly, underbanded way in way in which the re- —- ‘of the slaves was made at the Court House, robably prevented a scene of excitement that nies ave resulted in disastrous consequences. Betore the negroes present in the Probate Court, waiting for the ap- peurance of the slaves, were aware of what was in pro- gress, by the summary process of Judge Carter they were being conveyed to the boat to be carried back into slavery. ‘On the announcement of the fact in the Probate Court that the slaves had been given over to the custody of the master by Judge Carter, Mr. Jolliffe asked that the aid of the sheriff be invoked, or that special constables be ap- pointed to bring the negroes before the Court. Judge Burgoyne remarked that he should immediately issue an attachment, and directed the Clerk tw do so at once. Mr. Jolliffe then said, “I ask the Court to issue a writ against Alfred George Washington Carter, commanding him to show cause why he should not be punished for a contempt of this Court. Judge Burgoyne—That application I should grant with a great deal of reluctance. This clashing of jurisdiction is injurious in its effects. Mr. Jolliffe—We shall not press this for instant action, but the Court will regard the motion as being before it, and we expect and hope a decision upon it, Judge Burgoyne—I feel bound to protect and vindicate the process of this Court; and certainly if the proceeding had been against any otter than a brother member of the Dench, I should not hesitate; but the party here is a Judge | of the Common Pleas, acts in that capacity, is under his oath of office, and is responsible to his constituency for his official acts, and I should regret the necessity of taking any steps toward him. Mr. Jolliffe—If a Judge violate the laws of the land he should be the first person punished for doing so, The law of the land has been outraged, and the dignity of the State | trampled on, and Judge Carter should be signally punished for that outrage. The fact that he is a Judge, so far from shielding him, goes only to aggravate the offence, Mr. Elliott said that he had stated the facts of the pro- eceding in the Probate Court to Judge Carter, and showed him the transcript of the record, at which, however, the Judge merely glanced, and did not pay any Attention to the statement that those who opposed the application of Mr. Withers denied the allegations in hie petition. Judge Burgoyne said that he hac intimated that the firat stey Id be to bring the negroes before the Court, but he had.inferred from the remarks of Judge Hallem, of Kentucky, who appeared by courtesy as counsel ior the master, that there would be no difficulty in the matter, but that the slaves would be forthcoming soon. Mr. Peat stated, in defence of Judge Hallem, that when he made that statement he was not aware of what was about to transpire in another court. Judge Burgoyne further stated that Judge Carter had said he should take no further action in the matter until the proceeding in the Probate Court was disposed of. Judge B. suggested the removal of tho case entirely be- fore Judge Carter, but the latter said little about that, but Toguarked, “go on and try the case.» . Pratt remarked—I suggest, ‘ou bring Judge Carter before you fos violation one Ls lea gp? row court. He has been 2ulity of an unlawful act, an outrage, and there is no question of any conflict of jurisdiction. He should, therefore, be brought up as any other citizen Sor interfering with the process of the court, and I trust it will be done. Mr. Peat the Court would carefully consider the n of the parties before that was done. . Piatt considered that Judge Carter's position aggra vated the ease. Judge Burgoyne eaid when tho application was made in due and proper form he should consider !t. He remarked then, that he regretted had not an opportuni ex emiuing the question (nev s'avery could exist within the jurisdiction uf Ohio. The discussion was then dropped, and the whole matter left for such future action as may be deemed proper. This case presents another confict of juri dicdon and udicial ction in our courts, which {s fast becoming a re- ch. While the Probate Court was anxiously waiting ‘ival of the slaves, on a writ returnable at 2 o'cloc«, Judge Carter sends them back to the custody of thoir master, with the sample inquiry as to whether that was their desire. have answ otherwise would have subjected them to the slavellder's displeasure, and pro- bably to severe punishment if again put in his possession process of law.
