prom Chicago, we leant that an important suit, and
one that has attracted considerable attention in financial
circles; has been pending for the last few days before the
United States District Court, Judge Drummond presiding.
The suit was brought by John Thompson, the well known
broker of New York, to recover on two notes of $5,000
each, dated January 3,1856, and given by Charles De
mept to J. W< Patterson. They were endorsed by Pat
terson to Di K. Colburn, and by him to Thompson.
< The defence claimed that these notes, with several
were riven for the certificates of deposit of the
Ohio Bavings Institute,.located at Tiffin, Ohio, an insti
tution which, by its charter, bad no right to issue bills
in the form of money;.that Thompson know this fact,
and that he was virtually a party to tbs'original trans
action, It>was shown that at the time the notes were
given, Thompson quoted the bills at one percent, dis
count in his Detector, and in a few days, a week or there
abouts, “ dashed ” them. Thedefence produced $lO,OOO
of the original bills, and offered them in payment of the
notes.
The jury, after having been oat a few minutes, re
turned with a verdict for the defendant. A motion for
abew trlal-wosmade; but whether be the result, we
believe the community generally acquiesce tn the justice
of the verdict. Ur. Thompson belongs to the “sharp
species” of brokers, but it would appear that in this in
stance he has been takenin “his own craftiness.”
The Chicago Press states that the bankers of Wiscon
sin had a Convention at Milwaukee on Wednesday last,
to take into conslderatiou the subject of establishing
central redemption in' Wisconsin. A- resolution was
adopted declaring it to be inexpedient to adopt such a
system at present.
The following resolution was also passed: -
Resolved, That we cannot look with favor on the es
tablishment of banks of circulation at remote and in
accessible points where no legitimate business can be
: done, and that we will discourage such banks by all pro
per means. ■ . -
Handsomely executed counterfeit twenty.dollar noteß

beware. •
. At Chicago, the r»tf* among the leading bankers are,
as usual, ten vf cent. The tfwabrdfcersare still charging
two qp* cent, per month: Jamt-they-complain that “ good
paper” Is becoming-seareer, and,'as we predicted last
week, rates must go down from oak-half to cent.,
unless something should occur to keep up tho mayket.

JThe committed appointed to investigate the Affairs of
the Bridgeport Merchants Exchange Bank, by the‘last
Legislature of Connecticut, have applied for an injunc

in Hartford, on the 18th instant.

Speculation at the Paris Stock Exohange has declined
largely since last winter, and many parties are suffering
from tho losses entailed or the purchase of stocks at the
high prices which marked last year. Of the recent de
cline, in prim the London Times says:
“The letters from Paris to-day state that a feeling
seems to be. growing up that the lowest stage of depres
sion is past, and that henceforth a steady, although a
slow, recovery may be hoped for. But the universal ex
clamation is, what would have happened if there
had been a bad harvest? All the operators—that
Is to say society at large, with the exception of
■those adventurers who swept off their winnings
in time, leaving the uninitiated to tbelr fate—have
been beaten down by a year of pressure which has
stopped short only- of total rntn, and even yet, not
withstanding the prevailing expectation, it is not cer
tain if the end is come, since the turning of a straw has
hitherto been sufficient each day to add to the existing
gloom. Under these circumstances, let the consequences
be pictured, hot of an utter -failure, but of merely an
indifferent grain crap. If the promise of unequalled
abundance in this respect, coupled with a splendid vin
tage after many years of logs, is scarcely efficient to
beget a sign of cheerfulness, wha* would have been the
recklessness olid despair if it hod been absent! Tho
Ate of the country has been ri.kod upon Uncertainties

iweenruin or wealth, but simply ruin or the escape
from It.”
The Credit Mobilier Shares Sold' in Paris last year at

the Times remarks*
The career of the Credit Mobilier and its satellites
has terminated hut In .this, that, with every thing in
its favor,. it has not utterly destroyed the credit and
prosperity, of 'the entire' community. This conclu
sion, it may be' presumed, will not be contested by
M. Pereira himself. Ho admits tho prevalence of
great despondency and-trouble, and will hardly at the
present moment, when the land is teeming with the
signs of bounty, dare to attribute it to inscrutable
visitations of Providence. Neither con he attribute
It to virions mistakes on the part of any particular
close of the people,, since the. Government dictate
the, channels of enterprise and the foresight has been
extolled that crested the Credit Mobilier to regulate
the whole. The lesson, therefore, cannot be explained
away orblotted out. The only question is, will it be ac
cepted or defied ! If It be accepted, the penaltles'alresdy
experienced may be expected to give place to a steady
renini of confidence and health u, on the other bona,
“luck” Is still to be the word, there is no need to dilate
on consequences which will be plain to the apprehension

The Wsrre'nton, N.C., News says: “Onyesterday
we.were shown a small lump of .gold, , weighing seren
pennyweights,'whichhas. been recently found within
three miles orWarrenton. We hare not been informed
of the precise locality, but a strong impression prevails
that a mine exists in this neighborhood. It is not at
jul improbable that the .veins - which are. profitably
workedfin Halifax county, may extend and crop out in
Warren, The matter!* worthy of the attention of those
persons skilled lb mining pursuits.”
ThdLake Superior Journal of the Ist Inst, furnishes
the following information relative to the copper mines:
PortaQC LIKE Mixes.—-Tho mines of this district
Are attracting considerable attention just now among
mining men, and strong hopes ore entertained that they
will prove very productive. . The result thus far has
been satisfactory, and the people of that vicinity are
making preparations toward establishing more frequent
and regular communication with the lower country than
they lure heretofore enjoyed. The Pewabio mine has
already shipped twenty-four tons of copper, and has at
this time some thirty-five tons for shipment. Tho com
pany expect to ship two-hundred tons this season, ex
clusive of the stampwork, which will amount at least to
two hundred tons for tho two years which the mine has
been worked. The mine is now yielding thirty tons of
barrel work per month. Our advices from the Quincy
mine are brief, but we understand the agent experts to
ship one hundred tons of copper, this season, ana that
the prospects of the mine are remarkably good. The
Franklin Company—* new one—has just commenced
operations a little north of the' Fewabio mine, and the
mine is said to have opened os rich os (to neighbor. ■
Curt Hixs, Ac.—lt has been intimated to us that the
OUff Mine might, by proper 'management, be made a
stronger rival to the Minnesota Mine than it now is, and
that, too, upon what we call good authority, which,
however, we are not at liberty to name at present. No
fault Is-found, we believe, with the operations of the
mine, but the Company rather holds back from a liberal
view of the working of the mine. In brief, it U said, if
they wo>\ld open up more ground, the facilities for in
creasing the amount ofcopper taken outwould be greater
in proportion, and stand a fairer chance to equal tho
amounts taken from the Minnesota. However, we do
not propose to Interfere. They both stand high, and are
•hipping off masses which are an honor to themselves
and the country.
The quantity of copper that passed sault Ste. Marie
Csnal from the Ist to the 24th of July, inclusive, was

The Ontonagon Min<r of August 1 says: ■
The largest chip yet cut from the Minnesota mass w&a
taken off a few-days since. It measured thirty-one
Inches In length.
It. was fairly taken from a regular cut in the great
mass., It Is the largest yet made in this district, and
as far as we know in any other. The copper beats up
about one-third of Ate length in cutting—that in, the
place from which the chip la taken Is about half as large
again as the chip; so that the copper in the mass must
have occupied a length of 46# Inches.
There are numerous cuts in the mass of much greater
length than this. The largest which wo hare seen is
seven feet three inches, when it is considered.that
these, cots slways represent only the thickness of the
mass, some idea of its magnitude may be imagined.
At the franklin Mine, seotioa 24, on the pewabie
vein, they are taking out some specimens of barrel cop
per and rich stamp stuff, though their operations com
menced but a few weekasineo.
At the Pewabie they have every assurance that the
yield for the current year will not fail short of two
hundred tons, ,
At the Quincy, on the Pewabie vein, a party Lof men
have ta£en % contract to strip the vein fromfiu. 2 to No.
3 shaft; a distance.of three hundred feet surface.

The expenditure necessary to effect an easy and safe
ingress and egress to and from. Portage Lake, is all that
Is now heeded to render this one of tho most populous
sad productive, aa it is now the most picturesque por
tion of the mineral range,
Relative to the iron mines, the Lake Superior Jour -
Ml remarks:
' The news from the iron-works Is without particular
interest, and will, probably, remain so for a few
weeks,sifter Which.time, there will be some marked
'improvement, from the mine* the news is about
the same, and everything is working off well.
The decks Me nearly cleared of ore, and vessels
now here will take eyery pound that la now on hand;
but there are large quantities of it out at the mines,
and no apprehension need be felt in reference to the want
of ore to load vessels. In view of the want of ore on
the dock, the Cleveland Company are fitting up a portion
of their cars to run on the T rail by the locomotive over
' the completed portion of that road, which will add very
materially to the receipts. It is expected'to effect this
arrangement in the .course of next week, and will be
.continued until such time as the rood is completed to
,the mines, which is not far distant. The following are
the shipments for the season to date, per
v Gross ton?.
Cleveland I.M. Co 6,658
Sharon Iron Co 6,885
Eureka Co . 1M
Total 12,703
, This amount is something over the shipments for the
.whole season last year, and it can hardly be said to be
. half gone yet, owing to its late opening.
The Galena Couritr says of the lead mines near
[Galena/- Illinois The impression prevails abroad
very generally,’that the lead mines in this region are
about exhausted, that the old leads have been worked
out, and that no new ones are discovered. While it is
true that not as 'much mineral has been raised since
1849 is there was for the same number of years pre
ceding it; this has not been owing to any failure of the
mineral, bat tothe following causes :
.'The Mexican War ardthe California gold mines drained.
the lead region of a large proportion of its most enter
prising and-enccessnu miners—that restless, roving
class pf Americans who were always engaged in pros
pecting for sew leads, and were the most successful ill
' nndikg them, and were carried off by the war and thu
gold excitements. and but few. of themhave returned
.reaimw their old occupation. , Of those who remained,
(many of them have died, other? hare grown rich and re
lired.and so sew recruits have come to fill their places.
The present miners are mostly' Coralshnsen, who work
very faithfully that but are.
, Farming has juddmueh better 'of lateyear* than for
merly, has produced more certain returns than mining,
and consequently mauy have abandoned the mines ami
turned their! attention to cultivating the soil. The
prices for labor for the farms and workshops are much
bettetr.'iban * few years ago. A great deal of land which,
formerly was opened' to prospectors, has since been en
closed and Is now cultivated. The field for prospecting;
Utbw«dre’more restricted than formerly.
fw tfcm s**nm tin it lir little jw.yetfisj; e9»j»re ( j
with former years, and consequently not so much:
mineral is obtained. But'there is no failure of the
mineral, and fairing the nitmbtr e of men engaged in it,
mining was never more prosperous .than at present,
never yielded larger returns, and the miners were never
doing hotter^
The most extensive- digging B which are worked at
present are owned by two b.others by the name of
Mills, and are located near Hazel Green, nine miles
from this place. The load was discovered about two
years ago, and has yielded thus far over two million
pounds of mineral. About 40,000 pounds a week are
now being got out. The fortunate proprietors, after
taking out nearly $lOO,OOO worth of mineral, were
offered a short time ago $OO,OOO for their “show” but
refused it. The other leads in the vicinity of Hazel
Green are doing well. •« \:..v
The Maraden Lead, near this city, owned by Messrs,
ifarsden A Uughlott, is yielding a rich harvest to its
proprietors. A short timo ago, some 67,000 pounds of
mineral was got out in one week, and the avorage yield
per week is about 20,000 pounds. The mines at Eliza
beth, Shullsburg and Fairplay are all dolngwell.
The circular of Mr. Wright says:
Crop—The accounts from the Cotton-growing region
are again very conflicting. Complaints of too much rain
are very general,' and in some sections fears of serious
damage to the plant are entertained. At other
points, however, it is reported &s being in a flourish
ing condition.

An eminent geoligist, Blr. Whittlesey, expresses it as
his conviction that coal-beds were deposited from
water, linger the same circumstances, as the other beds
between which the coal is found. Mr. W. says that the
numerous analyses of coal Bhow thatoo timber now ex
isting contains within itself the proper quantity of in*
fredients to form coal. It must, therefore, acquire its
ugredlents in part from some other source, or a part of
those existing in wood or woody-fibre must be de
posited, and another part of the ingredients remain
in excess. There is very little vegetable matter tliAt
contains nitrogen, and woody-fibre has nono. In coal
nitrogen is found in notable quantities at almost every
analysis. Woody-fibre seldom famishes more than 60
per cent, of carbon; coal has from 70 to 90 per cent.
The inference that coal was once in a vegetable state
arose at first from the fact that the impressions or petri
factions of leaves and trees are abundant In coal strata.
As the impressions of the same trees and leavos-are
found In the shales and sandstones that overlie and un-'
deriie those strata, this fact, says Mr. Whittlesey, is
equally strong proof that the sandstones and shales are
or vegetable origin.
The Polytechnic Journal in describing the kind of
material and the mode of manufacture for bank note
paper which shall be secure against counterfeiting, says
that during the forming a thread net should be drawn
through the paper in such a manner that in each indi
vidual bill a thread be incorporated along and parallel
to its four edges, and so as to form four points of inter
section at equal distance from its four corners. This
thread, as fine as possible and precisely of the color of
the finished bill, should, before insertion, be passed
through some fatty oil, pressed out between rollers and
soft paper, and then coated with a very diluted solution
of caoutchouc, as uniformly as possible. The paper
formed should be carefully pressed, dried, dec., but not
amoothened. Its main color ought to be the natural
one; the tints, artificially applied, ought to be prepared
of chemical re-agents. Tho design and Its composition
must be such as to make tho value the paper represents
prominent and plain. The sign used for its expression
must be universal; and therefore a cypher, not over
charged and as it were hidden under a Hood of orna
ments.

TMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT—
NEW GAS CONSUMING FURNACE.
CHILSON’S NEW CONE FURNJtCE,
after having been pat to the most severe test, during
the two cold WJSTSB3 or 1858 asd 1857, has proved to
be the most powerful heater in the world, saving from
% to % the fuel over any of the best furnaces now in use.
Tais* FubxaCxs are constructed with a cast iron arh
pit. and a broad, shallow pan-shaped fire pot. lined
with fire-brick or iron staves. The Are pot is surmeunt
ed with
A SERIES OF CONES, ox TAPERING RADIATORS,
large and broad at their base, but tapering to small aper
tnres at the top, and uniting with the aaular chamber,
through which the heat and smoke pass to the fine.
TffC wboli products of combustion in the form of
smoke and oases, are suspended directly OTer the fire,
confixed or compressed into the tapering Coxes and
CO.vtixcallt exposed to the direct action of the raja
of heat and light from the fire.
This heat and light is brought to a roers in sacn
Cose, not unlike the
COLLECTION OF THE SUN'S RATS,
to a focal point through an ordinary lens, causing tba
axon and oasis to become intensely heated and tho
roughly coxscirtD, by this operation the svosr and
oasis are made equally available with the fczl
itself for heating purposes, while, in other foroace3,
it is cabbiid orr axd wasted ix tax chuisst.
