The reduotion will take effect on the 1 of April next, before which time both of the boats will have received a thorough overhauling. ‘Tax Extension or Cuawners Srrser.—The long delayed extension of Chambers street, in a direct line to James slip, seems likely to be soon a fait accompli, now that the Assessors has been confirmed by the Su- preme Court.

The imports of dry goods for the week ending this day were $1,767,000, against $725,000 same week last year, and $642,000 same week of 1858; the total amount entered at the port to date since revolver: of 1858. These figures are useful in accounting for the complaints which are beginning to be made by the dry goods importers. It seems certain that French silk goods, ribbons, ladies’ dress goods; and all descriptions of dry goods which fall under the head of articles of luxury, are selling at from 20 to 30 per cent below cost.’ With regard to staple goods, opinions differ. Several leading importers report to us that all kinds of staple goods—cot- tons, woollens aid silks—are selling at a fair profit: this statement, however, does not command the assent of the financial and commercial world generally. It is true that the South is buying more largely than usual; but the atock of goods which was wintered over was unusually heavy, and the imports are, as stated above, in excess of those of last year, which were justly considered excessive men from Scranton did not appear at all action, and though as vigorous a defence was made, by s of fifteen men in the story attacked, with larg leather bung few of the defending party would bave escaped da.

Supreme Court—Cirenit. pled the Court some cays. It is an action to test the ‘validity of a lease made by Mrs. Mary E. Gould, the wife of the defendant, of leasehold property in Eighth strect, in this city. The plaintiff secks to obtain possession of the property, alleging that 1Pis wrongfully withheld by the defendant. It ap that some matrimonial diff- culties arose between Mr. and Mrs. Gould somo years ago. The property was originally leased by the Trustees of the Sailors’ Sovg Harbor, and came to plaintiff by a lease from Mary E. Gould.

Some of the banks called in their loans to-day, which created some stir among the brokers; the rate of loans on call re- mains, however, at 5 per cent. The movement of coin at the Sub-Treasury continues moderate; the receipts for duties today were $184,000; the total receipts, $243,927; the disbursements, $225,870, and the balance this evening $8,018,782. Foreign exchange has been quite inactive for the packets sailing to-morrow.

Francs range from 5.16} to 5.29, the former being the $140,000 shipped from California to England via New York. A glance at the exports of cotton will explain the dulness of foreign exchange. Our shipments of cotton from September 1, 1859, to date have been 2,340,000 bales, which must have furnished about $105,000,000 of foreign exchange ; to same date last year our shipments were 1,691, 000 bales, which produced about $76,000,000 of ex. ‘Tox Bonar Exriowon xo {max Atiantic Fouxpry—Var- DICT OF CENSURE AGAINST THE PROPRIETORS BY 718 CoRO™ NER’s Juny.—The investigation before Coroner Horton into the circumstances attending the boiler explosion in the Atlantle Foundry on Monday last, by which the engi market was very active, and stocks closed steady at Rentol other rOds......csesrvereree, 48, 19000 Mich 8 8 f bds Stock Exchange. ‘J Q Were you examined touching the identity of ledge the lease, and denice the validity of the ‘ ea Ware_2re ezine, nang the detty ot any | ee he nae edn ha rly of th snverene change ; excess of cotton bills this season, $20, | ‘ge icon RRbae St against Mr. Willams now?
