Cancem! and Rodgers, the Condemned Mur @erers, not to be Executed To-Morrow. A YEW TRIAL FOR CANCEMI GRANTED BY THE ‘The Court of Appeals yesterday ordered a new trial in the case of Cancemi, the Italian, condemed to be executed for the murder of policeman Anderson. ‘The writ of e#ror and stay of proceedings in the case of ‘Rodgers, the murderer of Swanston, being returnible on the first Monday i February, it is therefore certain that neither of the condemned can be executed to-meérrow. ‘The writs of error were procured under the following pro- ‘visions of law, by Which their effect will be clearly per- oetved — The third section of the amended session laws of 1855, page 613, provides:— Every conviction for a capital offence, or for one pun- Sebabie as a minimom punishment by imprisoument in the ‘State prison for life, shall be brought before the Supreme @ourt or Court of Appeals from the Courts of Over aud ‘Yerminer of this State, or from the said Court ef General Sessions of the Peace in and for the city and of ‘New York, by a writ of error, with a «tay Of Boss Jo ‘ne matter of Fight, and the said appellate court may order a new trial if it shall be satistied t the verdict against the was against the weight of the or evidence. pele oy or that justice requires a new trial, whether Sy cousins: xceptions shall have been taken or not in the court ~ Under this provision Judge Russell was not only at Wberty, but was in duty bound, to grant the writ of error and stay of proceedings intthe case of Rodgers, as ‘was also Jucge Ingraham in the case of Cancemi. ‘The digposition of the condemned after the allowance of ‘the writ of error and stay of proceedings, will be observed from the following extract from the second volume, third edition of the Revised Statutes, page 620. If the defendant in the indictment, for the which such writ of error shall be ailowed, be in the custo- ay of the Sheriff of the county,and such ‘Allowance law a@stay of proceed: on the ent, it shall be the Guty of such upon eto Detdg terved’with the clerk's pane aa phe ay ‘ing Oi , and a copy of the allow- his custody ‘without executing the sentence which may have been passed ‘upon such indictment, and to detain such defendant pal pray such judgment as may be rendered upon such The effect of the writ in the case of Cancomi ‘was to sus- pend execution until the Court of Appeals should have ‘decided as to whether he was entitled to a new trial. The Court of Appeals having now granted him a new ‘wial, his former sentence is of course annulled, and be bas another chance for his life. The effect of the writ of error and stay of proceedings f= the case of Rodgers is to eecure for him from a general term of the Supreme Court—which sits on the first Monday in February—a decision as to whether he is entitled to a new trial. Should the application be either @enied or rejected, the people or the prisoner have a Fight to appeal to the Court of Appeals. Cancemi, how- ever, had the Ceurt of Appeals denied a new trial, would have been axecated upon such day as the Governor might appotmt. The Sheriff is by law required to notify the con- @emned, and the court and jury before whom he was tied, three days before the execution. Not know- ‘mg, however, what would be the result of the writs of error, and being delayed by stay of proceedings, this notice has not been given. The Sheriff is in Albany endeavoring to procure a reprieve for Rodgers. This is not necessary to delay his execution, but in case his application for a new trial should be denied, will save the necessity of sentencing him again. The writ of error and stay of proceedings of themselves delay the execution until the decision of the appellate court. SCENE AT THE TOMBS. About noon Mr, Furlong was at the Tombe visiting Cance- mi, in company with several jadies who were anxious to wee the man whose case had created such a com- motion in this community. While engaged in conver- sation with these parties, through the medium of Mr. COristadora, who acted as interpreter, and who has taken &® lively interest in the fate of his countryman, anew Nght broke in upon the condemned Italian. Mesers. Blankman and Ashmead arrived and announced to Cance- mi that the Court of Appeals had reversed the verdict found against him, and ordered him a new trial. Up to hie moment the prisoner was all calm, all subdued; he scarcely raised his eyes, nor dared to hope aloud, though fewardly be felt a lingering claim to live. On the an- wouncement being made, his whole frame underwent a gudden and a happy change; his dark eyes glistened, his Kimbe trembied, but a joyous smile illumined his sallow and dejected countenance—he seemed, in fact,"to become | pew man.

The most important measures of the Peesion relate to the finances of the colony, to the subject of immigration, and to the improvement of the main lines ‘of communication throughout the island. The fmancial measures tnvolve @ considerable revolution in taxation as % has existed in the island heretofore.

Proprietors will, for the future, instead of paying direct taxes on an assumed pag od of their respective estates, be required only to pay, ‘the shape of ap export duty, on the produce they may pat ‘export ‘The export duty to be levied in lien of the heredita- ments tax, has been fixed on the following scale:— On Sugar, per hogehead of 18 cwt.

Quotations for stocks at the first board to-day show a pretty general decline. The market was quite active, Missouri State 6’s fell off 1 per cent; Virginia, 3; Pennsylvania Coal, }; Camberland, 4; Pacific Steamship Company, }; New York Central, 1; Erie, }; La Crosse and Milwaukie, 1; Reading, 3; Panama, 1; Cleveland and Pittsburg, 3; Galena and Chicago, 2; Cleveland and Toledo, }; Chicago and Rock Island, 1; Milwaukie and Mississippi, 14. Cali- fornia 7’s advanced 3 per cent; New York Central Railroad 7’s, 1; Michigan Central sinking fund, 1; La Crosse and Milwaukie land grant 1; Michigan Southern Railroad (old), 3. Compared with prices current at the first board yesterday the decline to- day was toa greater extent than our report exhibits. In railroad bonds and State stocks the movement to- day was strong, and prices in most instances show an improvement. The land grant bonds of the La Crosse and Milwaukie Railroad Company were in demand, and closed firm at the advance. There is an impression abroad that there are other mort- gages before this on the land grant to the company. This is a mistake. The land grant bonds are the first lien upon the entire grant land, and upon the entire road beyond Portage City. The decline in Reading Railroad stock to-day was doubtless in consequence of the publication of the report for last year, in which it was shown that further dividends were out of the question for a long time to come. The com- pany show a floating debt of more than three mil- lions of dollars. The greatest decline this morning was in Galena and Chicago railroad stock, and it closed heavy at our quotations. All the leading Western railroad stocks were offered freely at the decline this morning. At the second board there was a better market, so far as prices are concerned, but the transactions were limited. Missouri State 6's advanced 4 per cent; California 7's, 4; Pacific Steamship Company, 1; New York Central Railroad, #; Erie, $; Michigan Southern Railroad (old,) 4. Michigan Central bonds fell off 4 per cent. There was a sale this afternoon of Fhird Avenue Railroad stock at 94 per cent—an advance of four per cent on the previous sale. The stock of the Sixth Avenue Railroadgells above par—February dividend of five percenton. All the city railroads are doing a large business, and so far have had a very favorable winter for operations. Throughout the country railroads have had a very good time so far as the absence of deep snows go, but in busi- ness they have had a very poor time. The compa- nies have been obliged to run trains according to the time tables, but they have been nearly empty of passengers, and prices for carrying freight rule so low that the less carried the better. The steamship Niagara, from Boston for Liverpool to-day, carried out $450,000 in specie. The Assistant Treasurer reports to. day as follows: + $152,173 69 108,084 46 2,949,628 99 The receipts to-day include $80,000 from customs. Most of the goods now coming upon the market are from warehouse. | To construction, The exchanges at the Bank Clearing House this morning, were $13,805,500 06, and the balances paid were $785,750 52. The trustees of the Irving Savings Institute have ordered that interest be paid depositors at the rate of six per cent per annum on all sums entitled thereto, payable on and after Monday, the 18th of January. All interest not called for will draw in- terest as principal, The Arctic Fire Insurance Company has declared a semi-annual dividend of five per cent, payable on the 15th inst. The Springfield (Mass.) Fire and Marine Insurance Company has declared a quarterly dividend of six per cent. The earnings of the Chicago, St. Paul and Fond du Lac road for December, 1857, were $21,860 57. The company has been steadily at work through all its troubles, and has now forty-six miles of road-bed ready for the ties and iron. ‘The last annual report of the New York and Erie Railroad Company gives the annexed exhibit of gross earnings, expenditures, &c., &c., fur the fiseal year ending Sept. 30, 1857:— New York axp Exig Rarroap.

The income during the year amounted to $604,552. The whole expenditures for the working of the road have been $342,371 25, and it has paid the in- terest ($11,985 43) on its bonded debts and bills payable, making in all $254,366 78, leaving a net profit of $250,195 45. After paying two dividends of three per cent each, amounting to $180,906, they have added to their surplus fund $69,289 46, making it at the present time $375,930 90. The Springfield, Illinois, Journal of the 7th inst., contains the following statement regarding the two mill tax and the January dividend:— We are indebted to the Hon. Jesse K. Dunoie, State Audi- tor, for the following statement in relation to the distribu- tion of the proceeds of the annual two mili tax to be ap- plied to the liquidation of the State debt:— Amount of internal improvement (principal) stock sented.. seeecesscccceres $907 Amount of ‘intercet ‘bonds presen nted ‘Total. Total amount of tax to be distributed. . There is a question now pending before the Supreme Court whether, under the constitution, the interest bonds which have been presented can share in the distribution. The case is in the nature of a mandamus brought by the Bank of Bloomington vs. the Auditor. If the Court de- cides in favor of allowing these interest bonds to come into the distribution, the amount of the dividend will be 58 per cent on the total amount presented; if it decides against them, the rate will be increased to 65 per cent. The Court will probably decide the case to-day. In 1856 the amount of the two mill tax was about $480 000; the bonus presented to the Auditor amounted to $1,500,000, and the divitend was 37 per cent Last year the tax amounte! to $623,160 25; the amount of stocks presented was $1,269,423 05, ‘and the dividend was about 49 percent. It will be seen that the amount of bonds presented is decreasing every year. This if the interest bond are thrown out, the amount wil fay be much smaller, and the pro rata very much larger than before. At the annual meeting of the etoc\ holders of the Atlan- tis Cotton Mills, Lawrence, held Boston on the 11th inst., George W. Lyman, Jobn © Lee, Francis A. Gray, Ignatius Sargent, Thomas H. Perkins and Henry Saltonstal were chosen directors; William Gray, treasurer; William Gray, Jr. clerk. According to the report of the commit- tee to examine the treasurer's accounts, the value of the company’s property, Nov. 14, was, real estate. mills, boarding houses and machinery, $1,578,588; cotton on hand, $27,158; other items, goods on hand,’ notes, &c., making the total assets $2,3¢0 081. The credit side is made to balance and includes $1,800,000 capital, $325,000 bills payable, the debt of $532,000, and some smaller debts, and other items. According tw the treasurer’s report, the profite of manufacturing during the six months end- ing May 9, 1857, were $77,050. The loss on manufactur- ine during the six months ending Noy. 14, 1857, was $32,- 143. Difference, (being the net profit of the year,) $44,- 7. From the first six months a dividend of 4 per cent was paid, amounting to $72,060, The debt of the compa- ny Nov. 14 was $658,242, Its assets, personal pr erty, ¢xelusive of machinery and mills, $783,314. Leaving $225,072 beyond the milis and machinery, as quick capi- tal. The reserve beyond the capital Nov. 14, was $3,665. The company has passed through the crists without pay ing extra interest; and since the Ist of March, 1856, out of about $2,250,000 worth of goods sold, the imperfect goods returned have not reached $100 in value, The report of the Lehigh Valley Railroad Com. pany for the year ending November 30, 1857, gives rather a favorable exhibit of the company’s finances: ‘The receipts and expenses were as follows: — Lewren Varury Rarroap.
