'."-By the steamer Northern. Light, which left Liverpool on Jire Bth instant, we received the unsatisfacthriAtelligencereapecting the ,Ocean Cable, ;921ffch.;Nfe pulsllshed yesterday. The Niagara his Since thrived; with three days' later...l/click.; and:-we 'are additionally in formed 4iOn all engrossing subject. Something is wrong with the Cable. A letter dated Valentin, September 4, _nom the Secretary of the Atlantic Tele graph .Company,tp the Times newspaper, in 'timate'd= that' ic owing to some cause, not Thari'adEeftilliod;'lmt beilevedito arise' from a fault , existingl in the Cable at a point halt. etto . .iiiidlicovered, there have been no in telligible. signals from Newfoundland since .eile'e i Clocli 'on Erldtik Morning, the 8d in 7 The, Directors" are now at Valentin, ,hy various scientific and practi cal are investigating the cause .of the stoppage with• a view to . remedy the °slain difficulty: Under these ellen:restart ees,qno time can' at present be named for opehingthe wire' to 'the public." -The thty article or the Times, of Septem ber..B,' isiya ccNothing , fresh has transpired With regard to: the Atlantic Telegraph. There is still ,communication through the whole length of . the Cable, but only of the faintest and most uncertain kind. A prevalent opinion seems to be that :the defect is not in the,instruments, but - that the Aine has received some injury froth abrasion on the coast, which will admit be speedy repair." ' The `adirioeti 'the Niagdra are to the :11th instant, and' report that matters remain ed in,staist quo., , If it 12e true, as the Times. toile us, that all communication through the whole length of the cable' has hot ceased, that some is still perceptible,: though cc only of the faintest and most uncertain kind," we do not look on the delay as an• indication of a dead failure, as rinth 40: the very time when the Prost. ,dent's message tolhe Queen . was being flashed 'acressitie cable from Newfoundland to Valen tin, there was such a sudden cessation of' corn empleaffon, which continued for some hours, and BMA teaorritnenced as unexpectedly as it ithdleft off.. As yet, our experience with 0 oean Telegraphs upon a scale of such very great magnitude is so limited that we can do little more than 'guess at causes from results. Froin the Electricians at Trinity Bay, the re. port is' that they believe—on what grounds they . de'nlit 'say—that the bitch has occurred ,upon the, 'other side, and not far from the terminus at Valentia. , „Several miles of the Cable, from Valentia, were buoyed, to show its near•shore position, if, required, and the Directors, no doubt, will 'have the'Cable fished np, as far as these buoys fttend, and very carefully examined. Should ibe:flaW be'caused by abrasion, and the Valen tia,Waters be"upon a rocky bottom, it will be eisy_enough to repair the damage. Mr. WILITEIIOI/8.; the , English electrician .who has been dismissed by the Directors of the Atlantic-Telegraph Company, because be was-a cc Slow coach," has published a letter of complaint; and says - that, from the first, be foresaw 'What would injure the cable if its shore-end were not protected; that he warned iftrectors,; Mgt, goon after, the injury which fie had foreseen had commenced close to the shore ; that, in consequence, all com munication from Valentia to Newfoundland ceased, for a considerable time; and that, having taken upon himself the onus of raising 'and' repairing the faulty part of the Cable, Which was' 'easily accessible, free intercommu ;filiation wee: re-established, so as to permit the transmission, from Newfoundland, of the Bretddent's message. Mr. •WEITHEIOUBE further says : I then, again; in -language as forcible as I - could com unin'd,7dechlre&to'thddirectors my conviction that Ibis interruption might be expected to oc ia 'aiiy time; and' that , we could not 'cistpitildupon our cable for a single day so long as.the - alender part, prepared and fitted for deep, sea-use only, remained unprotected and exposed,to ,the fun force of the 'Atlantic -swell-on the Irish coast." 'The facts; as we lappe'n -to' know, 'that though 'the laying of the Cable' Wan:completed on the 6th of An • 'gnat, , w the awa:, engineer, bad nbt let LendOn fuathe, of September with the shore ,enfislof the,Atlantie Cable, ono for Va. lentia and one for,Newfoundland. The Cable itself is less than an inch in diameter, and the seven , copper wires in 'the centre might be icovered by the head , of a middle-sized pin As the London News says : There are nume rous cause's which may have prodneed'the in. lerrliption ,of electrical 'communication. A 'dingle lel() ,threngh the grata percha or hien. ,lating,covering of the copper wire, no larger than sufficient to allow a single hair of the headlo'pass'anywhere between the wire and the miter casing of iron or water, occurring at any' point of the' whole length, of the cable, would' Produce the' Ada/ result." The shoro.ends which have to be attached to the two far-separated extremities of this slen der Cable are very massive, weighing six tons to the-mile, and are so stout and strong that they can 'resist :more towards shore abrasion 'than theyare likely to meet. The wretched management—the want of preparation at both terminchis probably caused the present bitch. 14.1344ri g i,1i0i43-ends Should have been ready 'at:Valentia and also ,at Trinity Bay, ready for beligg immediately attached, as protectors, to die,Cable whertsafely landed. • 4ltislo'be hoped that the defect can be as certained and repaired, and it must be lament ed 'that the - Englfsh Directors, - who mismanage :the affair; have, shown marked carelessness, ignorance, and want'Of providence .

BY MIDNIGHT MAIL. Letter from " Occasional." Worresionderice of The Press.l WASHINGTON, Sept. 22, 1858 When you and I knew Mr. Buchanan in the good old time, while he was dispensing refined hospitalities at his residence in Lancaster, and whilst a member of the Senate and Cabinet, in this city, the idea never entered his head to shackle these hospitalities by party rules. And, although it is assorted that no svngle member of the oppo sition party Was invited to dine at the White Rouse since the Kansas somersault, I am still in hopes of seeing a satisfactory explanation of that affair. But what do you think of the course of the Star newspaper here, edited by Wallach, attacking certain Democrats in New York, on ac count of an entertainment of ivhieh you wore with them a participant? Reading the article of Wal lach the other day, I was tempted to ask, What is to be the nextetop in this mad career of unbounded despotism? Is it possible that spies are to hide in the shadows of our houses, cluster at our tables, in horrible shape like the skeleton at the Egyp tian feasts—spies upon our steps like Fouche's minions—is it possible that in human depravity there are those fallen so low in the social scale as to even pattern the spy at the hearthstone, whom Bolivar has immortalized as an object of in effable contempt, and the very creature of the deepest hell? Is it really possible that no man holding office or expecting office shall be tolerated who looks an independent Democrat in the face, visits his family, or returns the ordinary civilities of life? The Spanish officials of Ceiba are com pelled to this sort of espionage; so are those of all despotisms that, like Nero, intoxicated with his own power, would whelm a whole people in utter destruction, and laugh at it as a joke. These are thecharaeteristies of despotisms, but aro they the oharaoteristies of a free Government? Informers thrive by this infamy, as did those of Ireland within the memory of even our young men. The most dregraded wretches, characterless knaves—men who are expelled from decent eoeiety, and are tolerated by parties simply be• cause they cannot be got rid of—see, in the en couragement whioh has been extended to this tyranny over the Imolai °hole, the convenient pass port to official favor. Now, surely Mr. Buchanan cannot approve the disgraceful attempt to intimi date and injure every independent man who re fuses to allow the friendships of years to be severed by political differences. And yet, precisely such a state of things must remit from the course pursued by the accepted organs of the Administration. De famation of high-toned citizens like Reverdy Johnson, Stephen A. Douglas, Henry A. Wise, and Robert 3. Walker, draws a line which cannot bo overstepped, and makes every man a personal enemy of power, whether he will or no. And the parties to this scandalous practice are the men who charge you with revealing private converse floes, when in self-defence you came forward to vindicate your position before the country, against es merciless a crusade as the annals of polities can show. As I. predicted, the post of question has been decided, but secretly decided. What new non sense is this? Why is not the soleotion mode known to the people ? < What is there to justify the withholding of a statement of the exact site upon which the post office ie to be located? Can it bo thatit is intended to operate upon the Octo. bor election? For, if Web° the object, the attempt to conceal the fact from the people will only excite disgust. I know that the Administration has been bolding this question as a rod over certain jour nalistio influences in your pity for nearly two years, and I predict, that when all the foots are made known, these influences will be found to have been most impotent. Some good stories are told on the avenue of Colonel Florence's army of dependants in your navy yard. Like the ships in our navy In the Mediterranean, which wore the objeots of the fiercest philippics of the famous Carter, of Ohio, they are most of them " waiting orders " An offioer of the navy told me the other day that ho paid a casual visit to your navy yard, and that while there ho was amused at tho manner in which the workmen were employed. They wore so thick as indeed to bo in each other's way. It Is not pretended that there is work enough for half those who are engaged, and It ie well known that after the 'election some six or seven hundred will be instantly dismissed. OCOASIoNAL.

SPECIAL MEETING OP SELECT COUNCIL-- Yesterday afternoon a special meoting of Select Council was hole, to take action relative to the removal of the market houses in Market street, and relstivo also to tho Ohostout and Wnlont-Street Parsnoger Railway. The spCcial comonttse appointed to consider the re moval of tho market flounce reported tho following in teresting document : To the Select and Common Councils of the City of Phitadelphla : The Joint Bpecial Committee of Select and Common Councils. originally appointed to consider certain matters relating to the West Philadelphia Passenger Railway Company, but subsequently instructed to inquire into and report upon the expediency or removing the market houses from Market street, and the beat mode of effect iog that result, beg leave respectfully to report: That they_ have had this important subject sin. der careful conaideration, and have conferred frequent ly And fully with them raoap•ing the Malta to thrr o market houses, and with a committee ref:recanting those business and commercial Interesta of the city which it fa supposed will ho besotted by the removal of these unsightly and cambersome structures. It is very cars:sin that the reasons %blots. generations ago. induced the erection of these etrurturee in the mstile of what was Intended to be the chief business thor•nghfaro of a groat and growing city, have long sleet loot all their fora. They wsre placed bore In violation of the original OM of the city, and pirhatin of the vented rights of citizen., to the infancy or the city, and nt n period of time when public convenience wan, perhaps. promotei by planting the court imam the prison, ard the markets In the middle of a broad highway, not then neided, but planned to meet the prospective dernmaln of the stunt population which the founder of the city forenavr would come day be gathered here. And yet, even at thet early day, a very Dirge and influential portion of the citizen.' dimounird tbo oc•upaeer of Market street with these abode an a violation of their tiebts and proclaimed un der the advice of mon learned in the law, that "the cor porarien hod no right either in charter lowa or m imeo,. to Fontein the building of nhambles in any street of the city 't In 1740. when the market mini extended from Think alley to Third street and again tu1771, when ft was extended from Third to Fourth /Meant, the citi zens' dwelling upon Market street for a long time con tinued regularly to poll down at night the margin work which had been accomplished open the new market hotmes during the orogen+ day. The time has now, however, arrived, When public convenience requires that Market s• rent freed from all there oteructionn, 010111,11)3 vial ied to the demands of that commerce for which it was deeigned. and to which it in to well adapted, while at the some time it has come to be tile case ' that the convenience of clt , zons will be promoted by the evtabliehmant of markets nearer to their homes, for these building+ ' which were once central and Almost at the doors of thei r houses. are now remote, and are steadily becoming more remote. At the ported of their Crg Olen, Market street, upon either aide, was occupied by dwelling houses, or stores coneeoted with dwelling houses. and the extension windward of the market houses kept pace with the growth of the city in that direction, while at the argo-o time the great mass of the citizens were dwellers upon Streets contiguous to Market street. then almost wholly occupied by residences, but now long since abandoned by their occupants to the demands of trade it is to be remarked, then, as a reason for the remo val of these market sheds— . . 1. That they are no longer, in point of location, whip: ted to the co-renitence of citizen... Pow, comparatively speaking, Very few of our Ginseng. reside within a convenient dietance of theme market bowies and each year, an it pence. rapidly diminishes' the number. That portion of the city which would naturally be tributary to them Is already. in A great extent. surren dered to trade. and at no distant day will be almost entirely occupied by warehouses, manufaetoriea, and shops. 2 As a natural consequence, the legitimate hell nems of theee market barman has greatly declined, and each RU.0111141, year St is ereadity dimititthing in amount, and at 'owe period, not far fn the future, mast almost wholly cease Already the butchern end the dealers in vegetables and frulta. And the products of the dairy. for whoa° We the Malin were denkmed, have, in a considerable degree, withdrawn from them; and each encceedirg year. as their customer/1 remora to residences more convenient to other market bonnet. ethers will vacate their Math A very large number of static are vacant, and a still terser number are urea tied by dealers in boots ant slmen, in Milken' and toys. in Am....mi ne legitimate subject.' of traffic in ouch a place Not one third of the ntare are, in truth, occupied for the tramtattion of legitimate market bushman. it As a further consequence, the revenue of the city, from thin source, in steadily lealining, and at come day, not very distant, must almost wholly cease, unlese Its loss is supplied by converting the market sheds into places for dealers i/1 almost everything except mar being. Bat, after all, the atronsreet reaeon for the removal of them, market ehede in to be found in the incalculable injury their presence initiate upon the nobleet baninees thoroughfare of our city. 'Thin street was designed, and fa better adepted for the tree/faction of great com mercial butane!c th+n any other street in Philndelphis, ant yet, dentine all its advantages, its trade ban been by this means dvrarfol, and its propprtion rendered in convenient for bushman and of diminished value. The business which 'Mould legitimately be transacted in this street of °obit, width, and which of right belongs to It, hue been driven into other and far lone convectinn t to Ultimo!, and the revenue which should aria., from an Assessment upon finitely warehonses, rendered valuable by their Inners for the domande of great end extending commerce. to hoped for from a range of miserable sheds, which have nurvivei their in efulneen. and now only obstruct and injure the hishway, and which are thee themselves yielding less and lone revenue each year, and at the came time diminishing the rt venue which should be 'lel ted by Loxes upon the properties erected upon the street Bat the market houses are not the only, nor venni the greatest, obstruction to the convenient use of Mar ket street for bunineas imams. Commencing at Eighth street, where the markets terminate, inatlet wagons occupy one nide of the nicest, and stretch westwardly, in deuce array, beyond Broad ntreet. In theory, they are sappoeed to be farmers , wagone, filled with country produce; which statedlr visit the city, and, after el's potting of their °entente, return again. In fact, they are ntetionary wagons, supplied by purchases elsewhere, and then carritil onto them, a..d from the commence ment in the clone of the year aro never removed front the place except onus a week, over night, when they are drann by hand Into come neighboring yard. to be drawn back again next day. And no It in that the city exacta rent from the botcher for the titan he occupies, and yet permit,' what is practically the competition of a range of adjacent stalls, which are free from all rent. The city erects or buys a convenient and coldly Earn , Mrs for market purposes, upon Broad and Race !drama, and then leaven it vacant by bringing Into compePtlon with it what aro in effect Malls paying no rent what ever. trioll a careful review of the whole subject, the com mittee have no hesitation In recommending to Councils the removal of all the market abode from Market street They donut recommend the conertict inn of now market houses at public expense upon other niter, 'They are of opinion that this may he atfoly left to the sure opera tion of those great natural Ines which will inevitably provide at private expense a !wooly equal to the de mand. We have now upon broad street end Race street an extensive sod welt-arranged market house. which is almost vacant. It now yields no income, hut, will, douhtla Re. upon the removal of the market-houses and market wagons from Market street, be-owe a source of cnnaiderable revenue. Already the oceopints of the stalls in the western markets have. laver con.' retell°e with year committee, secured an extensive and admirably* located 'lot of ground, 178 feet Nome, at Market and Sixteenth 'treats, upon which they are prepared to erect a market.houee of the beat construe—, lion, and combining every modern convenience for the transaction of their business. Those occupying Malls in Market. east of Eighth street, have not an yet ar ranged to do so, but if the markets are directed to be removed, they will at mien provide for themselves a stiltab , e location.

The net reconnect all the market houses in Market street is about twenty thousand dollars per annum.

It is. perhaps, proper to may that at least ono•hatf of this revenue la doe to those illegitimate sources, and each succeeding year thin pro• portion increaser+. It may he true that an forcible en argument could be made in favor of the erection. by the city, of shops for morchnoilloo, stores for cos facrlonere and dealers In rofreshmentn, and for those who sell small wares, an there could be for the erection by the city of stalls for butchers and dealers in term produce ; bat It has not, in fact, been hitherto thought that noels wan the true policy of the city. Why, then, even if it in a source of revenue, shall we continue. in violation of sound policy. to derive revenue fretu the renting of these sheds for each illegitimate purlioxer ? If wo look only to the revenue derived from these sheds, an market bowmen In the termer sense of the term.

In truth, the idea le dolomite that aey tom of revenue will attend thin measure. Fairly considered, it will greatly enhance, instead of diminishing . , the revenue of the city.

There is no profit in thin, of mom, but Me object of it is to enable barite to carry rut a newly inangarated poli cy, adopted by many of them, to pay coin in alt cases for notes returned and not to re-purchase the gold thus paid out. It bee been metonymy beret dote. for country banks to supply themselves with gold in this market. and. generally, to pay exchange for their mr cul sting notes returned by brokero. at a rate agreed upon. This erratagement was more profitable and con venient for the snorting home', than to have received gold. By this system the banks and the brokers both suffer thecae compared with exchange redemption ; but the object of the former is to break up the assorting system, and concentrate the redemption business at the Ohio Valley Bank ; and they anticipate indirect profits as the result of the elieht sacrifices that are being made in ca.rying out this gold policy."
