The past has been a week of great tightness in the money
market—probably the tightest week experienced in this
city for many years. There is no quotation for money, and
those who hare it to lend, seem to hare no conscience, the
most exhorbitant shaves must be submitted to, to meet
m&turiog obligations. • The Banks are doing little except
strengthening themselves, and afford but littlo aid to the
business community. The receipts consist chiefly of cur.
rency, which cannot be converted into specie funds, and
the private bankers will only receive it on special deposit.
Time bills cannot be negotiated at any rate, and the few
eight bills offered are scrutinized closely. The past day or
two has been easier, as country merchants ore beginning to
arrive. Thns far we have bat two suspensions to announce,
and these the houses of A. M. Waterman k Co., and Eddy
Jamison & Co. We see that the New York Independent
and other papers, have published as having failed—Mer
ritt, Rlaley* A Co., and R. M. Hubbard & Co., which is a
mistake, both houses are going on, with no likelihood of
stopping. Waterman k Co., and Eddy, Jamison k Co. have
not closed their doors, tout are still doiDg business.
Oar produce market is extremely dull, owing to the op
pressive stringency of the money market, and the few sales
that are made, are based upon “currency.” Receipts have
been light, and priceß are about as last reported.
The recent rains have contributed to a temporary rise in
the rivers. There were but 79 interments in the different
cemeteries during»tbe past week.
Mr. Michael Zahm left this city for Lancaster, via the
Ohio river, on Thursday last.
On Wednesday last $200,000 in specie passed through :
this city, per Richardson’s Express, for the Agents of the j
Wyandot and Delaware Indians lsr distribution among J
them. It is a consolation to know that by the laws of i
trade, a large portion of it will find its way to our j
city. ' j
It will be remembered, that some time since we reported
the steamer Effl Afton,” as having been forced against
the Rock Island Bridge, by which she was burned and one
span of the bridge. The owners of the boat brought suit
/ against the bridge company for the valueof the boat. The
trial has been going on in Chicago for the past two weeks,
and was on Thursday dismissed. The jury could not agree,
and thuß the matter stuods us when it commenced.
The p&Bt week opened with several more destructive fires.
.There were four in one day. The Green Tree Brewery was
entirely drstroyed, and the loss about $5OOO or sfioo0 —no
insurance. Several sheds and out-houses w c re destroyed
at another place, and in the evening the lumber yard of
Messrs. Mcllvaine £ Co., on Twelfth, between Locust and
Bt. Charles Streets, was entirely consumed—loss al>out
$25,000 and no insurance. Whilst this yard was burning
one adjoining was set on fire by some of the many incendi
aries now infesting this city,but was fortunately discovered
In time, and the flames tjere subdued. On another nisrht
the lumber yard of Mr. A. Biddle, was set on fire, but dis
covered in time to prevent another destructive conflagra
tion. There were several other fires during the week, but
the loss was trifling. All of the above was the work of the
incendiary. A boy has been arrested in whose possession
was found a leather hat lining, which was uaed, as is sup'
posed, for carrying powder, as it was very evident powder
had been In it. and as lie was In the lumber yard with this
and a bunch or two of matches, he was at rested as either
being the person or accessory to the parties who fired the
yard. lie is in liinbo.
On Monday last there wan a sale of booths at the Fair
ground, and the sum realized was $3.29-1, with fifteen booths
unsold.
There were several persons from Missouri and Illinois on
the ill-fated ship Central America?* Benj. Colt, of Hancock

and John Home, of Missouri are among the lost.
Manager Wood, of Wood’s Theatre, of this city, has just
returned from the oast, ami reports ns having completed

The total number of murders, manslaughter* and ljomi

was one hundred nndji/ty-si-r.
The gross receipts of the State Fair at Cincinnati, were
about $23,000
Our Eair commences to-day. There aro thousands of
strange faces now in our city, and this, the opening day
promises to be well attended.
In addition to thoao mentioned above, who were on the
ill fated Central Am-rico, from this State, is Mr. J. B; Clarke,
who was among the saved, and is now in this city. He says
that one of the most remarkublo incidents was. that the
captain of the bark Elion, by which he was picked up. was
warned of their distress, bf a bird that flow in his (the
captain’s) faco thrso times ; this determined him to change
his course three points, and by so doing he was made the
happy Instrument of saving the lives of forty-nine persons.
The bird—some eighteen iuchcs betwoou tho tips of the
wings—was caught and kept on board, but, being very vie.
ious, was killed by tbc sailors.
Gov. Walker, of Kauaas, has issued his proclamation to
;tbe citizens of tbc Territory, in reference to tho Octobor
election, and the same has been published in our city pa
pers, which is vciy lengthy'. He guarantees in this procla
mation protection to all, in discharging the duty of free"
men, In exercisiug the right of suffrage. According to it,
all will be alike protected, and those who desire to vote
can do so unmolested. The Free State men will vote in a
body, and will abide the decision of the election. This ia
as It should be. and we have no fears of any disturbances at
the polls. Everything Is tk,w quiet there, and no likelihood
of unlawful proceedings. Tho Black Republicans are pretty
well convinced that their Kansas capital has been exhaust
ed—run entire'y into the ground—that their northern
gullables are not quite so ignorant and easily humbugged
oa they supposed. If they just keep quiet, Kansas will bo,
what we have always maintained, a Free State! But if
they undertake to bully the thoy-will find “Jordan
a mighty hard road to travel.”
The steamer Key City, bound for this city, in crossing the
lower rapids, on the upper Mississippi, struck a rock and
sunk. Her cargo consisted of about IGOO pigs of lead-, and
2000 sacks of wheat. We haro not heard the amount of
Insurance.

•f Got. Izard, Gen. Eastorbrook and Judge Black, have
finally concluded their labors, and report that Judge Fer
guson nas received 76 votes more than Mr. Chapman lor
Delegate to Congress, and the certificate has heon awarded
to him. It is said, however, that Chapman will contest his
seat on account of Illegal voteß cast in Monroe and other
counties.
The Know Nothings of lowa have nominated for Gover
nor Dr. John F. Henry, of Burlington, and Eastman Morris
of Johnson county, for Lieut. Governor. There are now
three tickets in the field,and the Democracy are confident
of redeeming the State. There certainly have been great
changes since the lost Governor’s election in favor of the
Democratic party, and the prospects now most emphatically
indicate the success of the Democratic ticket in that State.
Thomas Kewan, over seventy years of age, and worth

Washington, Oct. 2.— The Secretary of the
Interior has recently invested nearly one mil
lion of dollars in the State Stocks of Missouri,
Pennsylvania, Illinois, North Carolina, Ten

to the Majority of WHITE
Joshua R. GiddlDg« on Negro Supe-
rlorlty.
We find in the Ashtabula (0.,) Sentinel, of
September 3d, the following letter from Josbua
R. Giddings, at whose sufferance Chase holds
his nominal position at. the head of the Re
publican party in that State. This communi
cation is to be taken as a further authoritative
exposition of the oreed of the Congo brethren.
Read it!
“ Some niggers are far superior to eome
Democrats. Indeed they are doubtless supe
rior to the grdat mass of the Democratic party;
while some Democrats are superior to 6ome
niggers, and perhaps to the great portion of
i the African race. Yet all Democrats, however
intellectually inferior they may be to the nig
gers, are entitled to live and enjoy their liberty
and the fruits of their labor. And while we
are endeavoring to sustain'these equal and
universal rights, we ought not to be drawn
into any discussion of the moral or social su
periority of the niggers over the Democrats.”
Now, the great mass of the Democratic
party is a majority of the white people of the
UnitecTStates of America, who are thus pro-,
nounced to be “ intellectually inferior to the
niggers!” Again, the great mass of the Dem-
oeratie party embraces the vast majority of
the industrious laborers, mechanics and far
mers of the country, who are thus held up a? I
“ intellectually inferior to the niggers!” And
the conclusion follows that in the estimation
of the Black Republicans, all the producing
classes are “ intellectually inferior to the nig
gers )” and that to find the intellectual equal
of the niggers you mus ascend to the lawyers
and thieving bankers of the Congo party.—
