That the monetary cahimity which has now extended all, over the Union will more or ass affect France and England, and other civilized nations, scarcely admits of a doubt. The r connections of trade between our own and distant countries have become at once so vast and so complicated, that the blow struck 'At one extreme, almost instantly vibrates to the other, disturbing and unsettling nearly every 'intermediate relation ,of :businees, from the highest to the humblest. ' This truth opens to us a new lesson of our importance to the great brotherhood of our rice, and of duties and. responsibilities which render every step we take intensely ,interesting to ,every family in the world. The fact that our present disaster began in the United States will undoubtedly be made :,the-subject of much unfriendly and depre ciating comment in thi European journals; and from this it will assuredly, result in injury, to the reputation of our merchants and our Government. But there are some aspects of the question that may not be inappropriately, ' alluded to here. ' And first—the railroad mania is not alone indigenous to the United' States. Great Bri tain herself, years ago, set an example in that direction, which, while it covered thousands 'el ber own people with ruin, was speedily fol lowed by France, and by the Mower nationali ties of the Continent. The 'arttcle;, from the London Times of ,the 28d of September, written • before the news of the collapses of our railroad' securities, presents a can - did 'and a philosophical view ,of French enthusiasm for , speculation, and particu larly in railroad ;romances. The', famous : Credit ldbirilier, so much vaunted, at first, as the chef d' mare of Napoleonic •skill and foresight, like all other attempts, eapecially.by • Government, ,to build permanent prosperity upon a credit basis, is toppling to ruin, drag , ging with it thousands whose little and great • 'all had been confided to its delusive but treach erous keeping. The other - invention; called ..The Cause Generale des Chemins de Fer," or, Anglicised; the "General Railroad Bank or Establishment," was set up as a rival to the Credit Mobilier, and was founded on Spanish loans and railways, and Is rushing with even more 'rapidity to its catastrophe. This story is plainly told by the London Times, and answers the double; purpose of showing how Much foreign folly has had to do with the pre= sent bankruptcy of the world, and also of once more illustrating the certain fatal results of all -.efforts of the Government to assist or restrain private operationsin basiness. For evidence of the wisdom of the forbearance of Government in all such movements, the Independent Tree story stands forth as a monument of sagacious statesmanship and sublime precaution. And where have the wild enterprises of our railroad speculators been more wildly assisted than in Great Britain ? Where did the epecnt lators flock for credit and for, money but to the • English fund market?' I;eit to the United • States they never could have run the headlong career that has involved so many great interests • in ruhr., But they crossed ' the Atlantic; and shrewd and cautious John Bull heard theirstate ments, and not willing to take all for granted, • sent his beat agents to this country to ascertain the truth of these statements. The result was that the agents became as crazy as the specu lators themselves. These are facts' as well known abroad as they are notorious at home: So that the responsibility for the bankruptcy of the world is reasonably well'divided. What; however, is the other side? .To the United States belongs incontestably the credit of havi ing given the first• great impetus 'to trade by its gold mines in Galiforniaan impetus; it 'is true, from Which innumerable' schemes of mere speculation have grown, but the gold mines remain, and their increasing products are chronicled every fortnight. Nor is this all., In the, midst of the complaints of the, English journals • and English .• bond-holders; the cotton of the United States, at 01300, our great Southern staple, and the pro.; tection of Great Britain from domestic tumult and social . disorder, is relied upon in thin hour of adversity by the British manufacturers • with the fullest confidence. It is stated that the cotton supply is low ha the great menufac.j. taring towns of Great Britain; and if- so; , there can be little doubt that English capital will soon appear to hurry forward the, new, , crop to our sea-board, 'for `transhipment to Liverpool at the earliest moment. Without, this sure reliance, bow long could the British ' Government maintain itself against the theo.' ries and revulsion from other countries, alwayti, sure to follow in the wake of a' bankruntoyi as universal as that which now threatens us ? In one respect the United States 'occupy a most enviable present position. The fabric; of our Union stands firm in the midst of the i wreck of individual fortunes that surrounds it. Its own credit is ,high and iniulner-', able, thanks to the glorious system , of keeping the national revenues out of the; banks. There may be turbulence in the great; eitiei ; there may be • crowds of discharged- workingmen and women ',thrown out of work,'i 'eager for bread ; there may be unexampled: . distress in the coming winter, which God, in 1 his mercy, avert ; but the love of' the masses ' for the Constitution cannot be abated. Happy ' in the fact that none of our sufferings have ; ' grown iron( the' Government; Itappy in the, confidence that surrounds 'our venerable Chief Magistrate; thrice happy in the complete over.l throw of all domestic factions, 'intent upon, disunion ~ and sectionalism—[what must our condition have been in this crisis had a tiff-, ferent result olosed the struggle for iiiesi-: dent last year I]--we can stand heretttour west-; em fortress, sorely oppressed by. the strin-', "gene) , of the times i but still secure from the fate that threatens the ,Governments of the Old; World. In .Eatrope. finance and banking is a: Government ' matter; and from this fact, • innumerable, perils • ever ' and' .inevitably; flow. The want of credit Europe leads' ; to a want of work; that want of work to a went , bread; atterthis cOmes, eombination among the laboring classes, and finally , revolution and i bloodshed. An able dieted? Loots NA- Penton may contrive to meet this new condi tion of 'things; but as the worst trial'that be; • has yet undergone' is about 'to be 'presented .to him, it will require all his resources to;inee it. Should ho fail, other Governments wily follow as before. • 'England alone .will stand' 'finu among the prostrated nations, because she will make every effort to keep her millions at:, work, and to this end will once more -acknow ledge her dependenceon the cotton of the tea States.' 1:17 The special report of the Committee of the Select' Council on the .matter Sedgley, Park, omitted from yesterday's pro ceedings, will be found in a corrected form in 'another part ? Of. this 'day's paps: We trust, that at a subsequent meeting of Councils there will be a full - attendance of members; in order that this important measure may be carried. 'Without designing to impugn the motives of, thole who vote against this bill, we cannot , re ..frain expressing our surprise that a project of this kind should. have been so long delayed.' The report speaks for itself, and must satisfy every good citizen of the necessity' of sem. ing this valuable property which the city is; solemnly bound to pay for by the action of the representatives of the people.

WALKER, a native of Pennsylvania, accepted the position of Governor of Kansas, and pro ceeded to the scene of his duties, armed with the instructions of the general Administration. Whatever maybe the future party position of Kansas, the fact is established that the majo rity of the people can vote uninterrupted by Intruders• from other distant or adjoining States. The trial has been made, and made successfully. Whether the Convention which frames the Constitution •of the new State of Kansas, and which is to assemble in October, shall decide to submit that instrument to the people of Kansas or not—and we demand that good faith requires that .it should be so sub mitted—the power of the people over that and all other questions, either before the State is admitted into the 'Union, or imme diately and always after it, is absolutely assured. We are a good deal surprised that the peace ful progress of the settlement of the difficul ties in Kansas has not extorted a more general and frank admission of the fact from those of the opposition journals which lay claim to can dor, and which are apt, in the absence of can dor in their adversaries, to become so indig nant. These journals commit a grand mis take in withholding the meed of justice to the Administration for the course it has pursued, in defiance of the denunciations of extremists, North and South, on this vexed question. They may rest assured that their course does not meet the approval of the people at large. In the healing up of adverse organizations—in the overthrow of the Republicans in most of the States'which they have heretofore con trolled, honest men, everywhere, must admit that the course of the Administration•in Kan sas has made a profound impression, and that• henceforth it will be impossible to rally even a respectable number of votes upon the exploded cries of 1856. It is amazing that the organs of opposition politics do not see that in with holding their deserved commendations of the course of Mr. Bncuszult, they are furnishing their own friends with an evidence of their own injustice. WHO FLOURISH IN THE MIDST OF DIM- TRESS T While the pulpit rings with appeals to the people—while the press forgets personalities and politico in its invocations to reform and retrenchment—while the ablest statesmen aro deliberating upon the best plan to relieve the almost universal suffering—men ask each other who is it that flourishes in the midst of our distress 1 Let those who feel curious to know pay a visit to that portion of our city which is frequentedby the holders of depreciated paper currency, and they will find there the strug gling mechanic, the poor stricken widow, the pale and nervous merchant, and the manufac turer eager to save his workmen from want, waiting impatiently to obtain redeemable funds and pay the enormous discount demanded by. the brokers. It is said that it is an ill wind that blows no body any good, and the disaster that now broods over Philadelphia, while it rains dis comfort and discontent into thousands of families, brightens and elevates the crests of those who prosper by furnishing the needful exchange to the community. We are not of Those who regard brokers as an unmitigated evil to society. We know there are very many good men among them;and that it can not be doubted, were it not for such as these latter, that the roguei of the profession would have things all their own way. Our object is simply to show that the worst curse of paper currency, except utter repuditti tion itself, is the enormous wealth it pours into the coffers of those who, having hoarded their capital for the storm, go outto prey upon society without the slightest visitings of re morse. The example we are now having taught to us all should animate us to renewed efforts to restore confidence as soon as possi ble, and to prepare for that thorough modifies: tion of the entire banking system that will render if impossible for such another calamity to overtake us as that of which we now comb plain. RETRENCHMENT. The proprietors of the Girard House have decided to reduce the price of board on and after Monday next, from $2.50 to $2 per day. This is a step in the right direction, and we are glad thatMesars. PREBI3IIIIS, SYKES, & Co. i have been prompt to make it. Tho necessity of retrenchment is universally felt, and quite as severely by those who have been the patrons of the leading hotels of the country as by any other portion of the community. The price of provisions of some kinds has already great; ly fallen, and it is not likely that any Important supplies will long maintain their former hie' rates—so that the principal cause which justi fied heavy hotel bills has been removed. Henceforth retrenchment will bo the watch word of the great mass of the community. Hard as it will be to dispense with luxuries which custom has almost made necessities, the public will feel compelled to do without them unless their prices are reduced—and those de pending upon the people for custom will evince the greatest wisdom who are the earliest to discover and the most ready to regulate theft terms in accordance with this obvious truth; EY.GOVERNOR SEYMOVR, OF NEW YORK. Ex-Governor SEYMOUR has written a letter to the Now York Tribune in regard to a para graph in its columns concerning his action, in which ha uses the following language. We like the tone and temper of Governor SEY- Noun's letter, and those who do not approve his opinions cannot fail to entertain the same feeling : I am not,the agent nor attorney of the coun try banks ; neither have I In any way obtruded. my opinions upon Gov. King with regard to an extra session of the Legislature; nor am I advised of any communication which may have been made, to him on the subtect. At the request of some gen tlemen from the interior, I went with them to a meeting of the bank offioors of the city, for the purpose of devising some plan for bringing forward the grain of the West, to prevent the great calami ties which threaten this city if its unemployed population shall be compelled to pay high prices for food. ' The necessity for a suspension of specie payments is a matter of great regret. 1 do not know what course Governor King will take in this time of general distress and embarrassment, but whatever his policy may be, I shall feel it to be my duty to strengthen his hands and not embarrass his notion. I have seen too much of the evils which grow out of misrepresentations of the con duct and motives of public officers to sanction any conduct of the kind. I era not authorized to speak for the Demooratio party, bet I know that those who hies lately placed in nomination a candidate for the fart of Appeals because they would not assail iiii.fiadependellee of the Judiciary althbuglt ho had felt it his duty to make a decision Unwel come and, injurious to them, will not be guilty of any factious polio at a pertod when the 'farmers; manufacturers, and mechanics of our country are plunged into deep distress, and when the inhabi tants of this great city are threatened with a want of employment and food. llonarre Scruoun. ' BY MIDNIGHT MAIL. FROM WASHINGTON Rumors of Dissensions In the Cabinet Un. founded—Treasurer's Weekly Statement— Appointmenti—Cases before the Naval Courts of Inquiry. WASHINGTON, Oct. 16, 1857. The rumors which have been published lately, to the effect that there was dissension in the Cabi net of President Euenenan, have not the least foundation in truth. It was stated that differences, on material points, existed between the Secretary of the Navy and the Secretary of the Treasury, and between the latter and Mr. BUCUANAN him self. Such is not, and has not been, the fact. From the very beginning of the present Adminis tration, so far as I can learn, perfect harmony of action on the great national issues of the day has aharnoterised the President and his Cabinet.

To the Select and Common Councils of the City of Philadelphia:—Tito Committee on City Pm• party beg leave respectfully to report: That they have had again under careful consideration the subject of Sedgeley Park and its presentation to the City of Philadelphia as the generous gift of a number of our most valued citizens They have been induced thug to review their former action by the boldness of violence of the language in which the purity of the motives and the Integrity of the conduct of the gentlemen who united in presenting this property to the city was as sailed upon the floor of the Common Conned at the meeting held on the Bth inst. Imputations like these, thrown out in tho progress of heated dissuasion, and wholly uneustained except by violent declamation and reckless assertion, would, under ordinary circumstances, merit no turtber attention than the salutary rebuke ad ministered to their author in the progress of the debate; but in this instance the Committee on CI y Property, which earnestly recommended the acceptance of the gift, have felt that it was due alike to the committee • to the . citizens who gave, and to the citizens who, in all time, may enjoy the noble gift, that assaults such as those whieh were made open the motives and the characters of these generous clizens should have on the records of the Council an tnanswerable refutation. Sedgeley Park, containing thirty-three three, and ad joining Lemon IM/ on the north, was presented to the city in the moats of March, 1857, by citizens who vol. untarily gave le cash $OO,OOO toward! its purchase, and then conveyed the premises, subject to the balance of the purchase snowy, ($05,000) as a free gift to the citi zens of Philadelpkia, to bo used no a Park, la convection nth Fairmont Park, for the health and enjoyment of all the people forever. In combination with the city grounds at Fairmount, which embraces twenty-four acres, Fairmount Park, which contains forty-five acres, and the grounds of the Spring Garden Water Works; which confetti eight and a half acres of ground, the Sedgeley Park estate fornm a park upon the banks of the Schuylkill of one hundred and ten and a half acres, extending from Callorthill street on the south, (with the interruption of a small plena of wharf property at and adjaceet to Coates street,) to a point more than a mtlo northwanl of the dam. ludependently of the re markable natural adaptation of these beautiful grounds to the purposes of a noble park, they constitute the bank of the Schuylkill, and their possession by the city insures the purity of the water in the Fairmount basin, Is hose border they constitute for a mile above the dam. It was the design of the citizens who presented these premises to gather by subscription the entire purchase money, but their efforts were not succeseful, and their original contract mitts Mr. Dreer, which contemplated the payment in cash of the eutire purchase money, was modified so that the cash payment was placed at $60,000, and the balance was suffered to remain on mort gage upon ea.y terms of payment. As the premises were free from encumbrance in the hands of their , own er, Mr. Dreer, with the exception of $11,000; and they were to be presented to the city subject to $OO,OOO of the purchase money, the balance of the encumbrance was divided into two parts, and charged upon different por tions of the premises. To relieve the city of Philadel phia from giving her bonds for these balances of the purchase money, the premises were charged by Mr. Dreer himself with these two mortgages, (making, with the $ll,OOO mortgage, the balance of the encumbrance, PUBLIC AMUSEMENTS, subject to which they were to be given to the city,) be- , fore ho executed the deed This was done with the full The groat, and, we may add, the well-deserved knowledge and p evious 'approval of the Committee on ' truces! of Signorina Ramos, as Diana, in Donizet- City Property. ti's (Maid opera of "La Figlia del Iteggimento," Such is the simple history of this noble gift to our in which she made her debut at our Academy of citizens.

Under this head a gratuitous attack has been made upon Mr. R. D Cullen, President of the Reading Railroad, by Junius & Co --evidently a firm who have a deep interest, beside the welfare of either the road or its stockholders, in displacing the present President. The MeCalmonts did not seek their investment in the Reading Railroad, but they were sought for it; and having, with their friends, become deeply involved in its for tunes, it is reasonable to suppose they.would re quire some one in its management in whom they had unlimited confidence. Worse than Know- Nothingism, which does not proscribe foreigners in the business relations of our country, Junius & Co. are evidently so full of bitterness because the President of the Reading Railroad happens to be a native of a country to which we owe fully four hundred millions of dollars—a debt of our own seeking, and opposed, as lee admit, to a judicious policy in our past—they are ready to condemn him. Between Mr. Tucker, Mr. Cullen, and the other managers of the Reading Railroad, there apparent ly existed the utmost harmony and confidence, and they were expressed by the frequent election of Mr. Cullen as manager, subsequently as Vice- President, and finally as President of the Railroad. Wes there any dissatisfaction between those gen tlemen, in all their apparent harmony and confi dence, not disclosed? From the tenor of the re marks of Junius & Co., we would be led to think so. At any rate, the utmost good feeling was ma nifested toward, and extended to Mr. Tucker; thus exhibiting to the world a reciprocal confi dence, and disarming public opinion of every weapon of warfare for aggression upon either of the gentlemen, till the arsenal of Junins & Co. was opened, and its weapons were brought into service against one of the parties. The ammunition, in part, comes from a reputed meeting, in which one of the objects disclosed, in times of embarrassment like these, is the changing the freight depot from Mount Carbon, its present location, to Pottsville; a method for effecting which, and continuing the power to the " middle-men," it is supposed can be best effected by superseding the present President of the Reading Railroad, by some other. The policy of Junius & Co., so far as we can comprehend it, is " to rule or ruin," and the great lever for ruling is evidently the reinstation of Mr. John Tucker es President of the Reading Railroad Company. The bona fide stockholders of the cons pony perfectly comprehend the condition of the road, the character of its management, their exact relation to it, and the amount of confidence to which the present president and managers are entitled. If we are correctly informed—and the information is from the highest authority—Mr. Cullen is pursuing jest such a coarse as ultimately to merit and receive the confidence of the whole coal interest of Schuylkill county. Tho effort to throw discredit upon Mr. Cullen, and hence the management of this road, for its hare in the depression of every interest in our land, is based upon the flimsiest pretexts that could be arrayed; as the cause is too plain to be overshadowed by such an effect as diminished re venues in times like these Tho president of the Reading Railroad is not only n thorough accountant, but a superior business man, one who will achieve his purpose—the prosperity of the road over which he presides—by the applica tion of correct principles to the conduct of the great work committed to his charge, and not by the Uandishmentsof manner, or by eitherlargeases or comessions designed to effect a reacznentary pope- larity or purpose nt the expense of an enduring advantage or interest. No stock jobber himself, he has not tad, and can have, no motive for initiating or scouting any temporary system of expedients, by whichto deceive the stockholders or the public, and lieheoinduce a fictitious value for the stock ; but under‘is management the Reading Railroad will stand Ern its merits, which will be satisfac torily established at a fature day by the exhibi tion of diminished and unnecessary expenses, and the abolishment of all special largesses, indadicen cies, and drawbaeki, which have overshadowed a •deserved populariti, which is brightening, in the estimation of' the candid and discriminating in the mining region, every day. As the human ,hdgment is not infallible, it may be aided by the dilly experience which a sound and analyzing mild deduces from passing economy 1 or events, and ibm which the president of the Reading Rallrod will undoubtedly derive much useful knowled and instruction. He may have 1 3 erred in yield gup the wharves at Richmond to n monopoly, w h directed the trade of the miner, who acts as hi, own merchant, to another cum ; pony, becaura equal facilities at the shipping point on the. Delaware were denied to him ; but, if we arenotnaisinfertned, the experience of the past will elect any such mistake •in the future. It was a g at and powerful interest that de manded tai oncession, and one that was, conse quently,calculated—with its practical work ings and c sequences undeveloped—to succeed in its dome . But, between the States of this Union in th njoyment of privileges dispensed by ~..1 corporation here can be no better doctrine then free trade a equal rights, and though combina tions may -e successfully ignored them hereto fore, and threaten to interpose obstacles to them bores r, they are the only true basis for success. j ' With a reViniof confidence, and hence the in dustry of the sultry, upon whatever basis, it will be found tha th Reading Railroad Company could not hav4,bea, nor can it be placed in better hands than three vetch now manage it. Taking into ;ieache last depression of business —ripened into a malion throughout our whole country, and adtetit; eteryinterest—the Reading Railroad will extibitquie as favorable a result as can bo anticipred—slaidating the fact that the object of the musagenut has been profit, instead of the exhibition of Manisa tonnage.

A Remarkable Cate A correspondent of the Albany Evening Jour nal gives the particulars of a visit to Mrs. Hays, of Helicon, Warren county, N. Y.. who is known in that region as "the woman that lives without 0114 " The. woman. it appears, is in a diseased condition, and subject to almost continuous spasms of great violence, and from the description given, of the most heart-rending character to witness. The is titer says :the h long-soutinned spells of raising l-r Lody up then throwing herself back so as to 'tile the top of her bead upon the bed—thus bringing ber feet and face so near together as to force .e entioAtele with her body. Sometimes her heed b,endr two bark so that the line of her fe •e , would he rei ersed. and would rest upon the pillar Then ohs wool I striirliten out again. and he the most frrsible agitation of her triple frame—a violent quiver—a rapid spasmodic action of every nerve and muscle, with strangling and gasping for breath. like a person in the last agonies of Meath. This strangling and gasp ing is in consequence of Suspended respiration dar ing the period her head is so forcibly drawn book. At one time she remained in that position twenty minutes; twelve minutes were the longest while I was with her I applied a looking-glass to her face as a test, but could see no evidence of her breathing. She does not now usually remain in those peculiar spasms longer than from three to five minutes. During a space et three week& they estimated that she went through with these me tiers at least once a minute on an average. The statement they gave me would make much more than that. One day, on which they kept some count, there were not less than three thousand Ave hundred of these spasms. " The least particle of food taken into the room well produce violent heaving anti retching. I sim ply handled bread, and then went near the bed, and it pnwlueed heaving which was alarming. I sprinkled an impalpable and almost imperceptible powder of rarrharzem lards upon her tongue, and it produced violent hearing, which lasted over an hour " The writer says he has convincing proof that this woman has neither eaten nor drank from about the 20th of February to September when he saw her ; and she has not eaten more than a healthy person would eat at a single meal since the 28th of done, 1855. A GREAT TELEGRAPH Sr - Tr.—The New York Evening Pon gives the following as the result, as decided bythe New York Court of Appeal, of • great telegraph suit brought by Prof. Morse and Alfred Vail again -- F. O.J. Smith, which has been traversing the courts since 1851: "In the opinion given by the court on appeal, several items claimed by the defendant as a set-off are reserved for far ther argument. The claims allowed are those which were for the most part admitted by the de fendant, and amount altogether to the sum of 510,000. Those disallowed, (and the value of which is distinctly stated in the oomplaint,) amount to 3320,613.75: but besides these there &instill two items. which added to the above, make the whole amount of the claim disallowed by the mart nearly $,:.015,000 In regard to the equity of the claim made against the defendant for balance due on the Milwaukee telegraphic line, and which ha de clares is cancelled by the assignment to the plain tiffs of the Louisville and New Orleans line, the court reserves itself, but strongly intimates that Smith ought to have this stock issued and delivered to the plaintiffs." The total number of persons discharged from stores., factories, foundries, and workshops, in New York, Brooklyn and Jersey City, sinee the beginning of the financial panic. is stated to be 12,468. These figures, however, give no idea of the number of persons who are left without em ployment by the pressure of the times.
