j LETTER FROM NEW YORK.
[Correspondence of The Press.;)
i , NRmYork;* Aug.' 26', 1857—5.20 P. M.
I' There were evident BigUi of increased stringency In
rthe,money Market to-day. Tory little paper, except at
phort dates,-even; though it ho what is called first-rate,
is sold under, frdttr ll to 12 Indeed, it is hard
to giro any duotations of the rates' of interest, the ne
cessities of the individuals seekingaccommOdation being
the only rule of the raiesp&id.- 'The suspension of the
Ohio Lifo’.ilnsttrance and Trust Company, followed to
day by .the failures of John Thompson, the dealer in un.
current money, and agent'for several banks; Del army,
IrOlen,-A Clarke, and-JSd%*ard Monroe;-stock-brokers,
has naturally caused a wide-spread fooling of uneasi
ness,-ikndvreadorß It difficult to borrow- at any price.
Were .it-not for this calamity, the bank stated
fnsnt yesterday- would have been • considered so a
vorable that things Would have been easier to-day. It
1 s,. not j to. bo. supposed,-however, that tho legitimate
trad®, is muoh hampored by this pressure. Speculators
alono fool ita entire weight, and they will continue to
feeUt for some time to - come. Mr. Stetson, the Presi
dent.of -the Ohio-Trust Co., hhraed.the following notice
yesterday evening:
\ .--“Orriou op tqk Ohio Lire Isa. aso Trust Co., >
v New York, August 24,1857. J ;
• “.The unpleasant duty has devolved upon me to state
that this Company has suspended payment. Thisevent
has mainly been brought about in ednsequence of making
ar. here to parties who aro' unable to respond at this
, <l I would add, that the capital of the Company, two
millions,’l* sound and ’ reliable, exclusive of such loss
as may arise from insufficiency of sccurities pledged for
loans atwve referred to; . .
- •’ 4 ' “C.-Stetson, President.’ 5
i The precise caose of the failure of this Company,'and
ihu.exact amount of its liabilities, will-not be known for
iome days.,but sufficient 1b known to warrant tho be*
llef thattheir default will be immense, and will hare
the mostdlshstrous effect on sevcral individuals.- The
Company’s dndebtedueßf to the bauke for call loans is
no J bell aved to-day tobeaalargeas was atfiret supposed,
and thosethatereinvolved'are-generaUy said to hold
ample security against ultimate loss. There ia no
doubt that the fint statement in Mr. Stetson’s notice
IB , correct, but the propriety of the way in which the
, “ louts to parties who are unable to respoud at this
time o were made, is very much questioned, and much,
f blame is.attached to the Cashier, Mr. Ludlow, for his
- improvident management. \Tith what justice thieblame
to awarded, I am unable to judge, nor to it fair to judge
until aa opportunity has been given to the Company to
explaittthelr case; Considerable d6ubt ia felt as to tho
second..statement in the above as to
whether the capital of the company will be found suffi
cient to make'up for the low' from insufficiency of tho
, securities pledged for loans. > Mahy df these securities
have absoiutelyso market value'at this moment: for
instance; the company; is said to have'loaaed 3500,000 to
the Cleveland A Pittsburgh JWlroadCotnpsny, who de
termined to close their books since yesterday evening.
! ThemWortdne,bf^the h.’A T. Cq. to undoubtedly
< due to its appropriation of its means, out of the legiti
mate^mir^to loans on" the 'speculative securities of
railroads.-; The failure dobs hot'inuoh' affect the regu-
'.Thb retd sufferera' are the
those 'been Imprn- 1
dent enough;to engage in similar operations. 1 It is sup-'
posed that this day’s failures sx£ more or lesi > owing to

A “ Little more Grope, l * said Grn, Taylor to
Capt. Bragg, but “a few more grapes” says Col. Jones
to the public. The Arch street (below Eighth) Ladies’
Saloon is now the fashionable resort or the city. The
dinners served up put to blush the principal hotels.

a- moment’s warning. The confections are all home
made, and of the finest quality. But the Grapes—they
'are luscious, indeed—a look at the rich clusters which
are so temptingly displayed Is enough. There are the
Chasselaa, the Frongtignocs, the Hamburg*, and tho—
that is as far ob we can go now j hut if you wish to go
