To accomplish their ends—the destruction of all banks, howevr safe and well managed—they unblnshingly per vert the most reliable statements, and substitute high class figures of their own, for those growing out of the transaction, varying in amount from 75 to 100 per cent. They possess the singular faculty, too, of never committing a mist-ike in favor of the solvency of a bank, let the valuable and available capital of the institution be ever so much greater than its circulation and discounts. The discrep ancy, of which the following article complains, is a modest one, in comparison with thousands almost daily published for party purposes, exhibiting, ?.s it does, only 54 per cent, less solvency than the New Jersey banks actually possess : New Jersey Banks —A money article, recently in a New York paper, by many considered oracular on matters of finance, makes a direct attempt to injure the credit of the banks of this State. After a statement in columns of their circulation, dis counts and specie, taken, apparently, from the re turns published in this p 'per, the writer proceeds to say : " The banking capital of New Jersey on the 1st January, 1851, was $3,754,900, but little more than one half the amount of loans and discounts. The proportion of specie on hand to bills in circulation, able exhibit, and confirms the impression we have long had, that the bank* of New Jersey are by no means in a safe or sound position. There is here a criminal mis-statement, or at least, criminal carelessness on inch a subject, if not at the time of writing the article, at any rate, in suffering it »o go uncorrected. The columns of ligures preceding this slanderous fling, are footed up as follows : Discount*. Circulation. Specie »7 .158.997 93.tki7.908 $ii^.885 If these figures were correct, the proportion of specie to circulation is 1 to 6—instead of 1 to ÜÜ. But the figures are not correct. The Daily Adver tiser, which was evidently !>efore the writer of that article, in the table therein published, fools up the column of circulation, as it came from the office of the Secretary of State, and rightly, at S3,046,958, a difference of 6000,000 ; showing that the prnpor t on of specie to the circulation was 1 to £1 89, or t lereabout. But this is not all. With a capital of $3,754,900 it seems the Jersey Banks have only $3,046,958 circulation—an excess of capital over circulation of S707,94 ; -2. With great deference to our Wall street financiers thi* hardly shows our banks unsafe. But why did not this financial critic print the full returns of the Jersey banks? That return shows r lliis 7,158,097, while To:al..

The vicinity of Owentown was last night the scene of a most bloody and fatal trag» dy. Abner listes, and his brother-in-law, H. iî. listes, living near neighbors, had quarreled, and last night about dark the former walked over to the residence of the latter and announced that he had come to eifect an amicabfe settlement of their difficulty. II. Ii. Estes expressed his entire willingness, and invited Abner into the yard. So soon as he entered, how ver, he made hostile demonstrations, and advanced ! j j I j 1 rapidly upon H. B. Estfs. Iiraudisliing a large knife, i stepping into his door, seized his rille, gun warning a cap failed to Hre. A brief strngg'e ensued between the parties over the gun, but H. B. Estes succeeded in keeping it, and ejected his assailant from the house. Abner approached the house from an opposite door, and was fired at by his antagonist, but it did not retard the rapid ad vance of Abner ; he then drew from his pocket a six-barrel revolver, and fired twice. Abner Estes still advanced upon his adversary, and seizing him with the desperation of frenzy he buried his knife deep in his abdomen, lacerating the viscera and in dicting a frightful and fatal wound. The assassin, when he had done the deed, bounded off into the darkness, and it was supposed lie had escaped un hurt He was found next morning, however, in an adjacent field, dead ! The writer has just returned from the scene of blood. The spectacle beggars description. In an open field, distant fifty yards from the place of com bat, cold in death, lay the giant form of one of the combatants, clotted with gore, the three balls hav ing taken deadly effect—the " pitiless storm" pouring down upon him in torrents, his death dealing knife by his side, and his eyes strained to their utmost tension, still glassy with rage. II. li. Estes is dying at the time of writing. A trageJy so sudden, so bloody and fatal, has app alled the whole community. They have both left wives and children to mourn their loss. Abner Estes was a man of abandoned habits. H. B. Kstes was a quiet, unobtrusive man, and a good citizen.

If he has family and friends in the United States, they may be fble to relieve hirn, through the influence of the Spanish Minister at Washington, especially if he has been liable to derangement of intellect from other cau-es than intemperance."

Bond would yield to no entreaties, and Bennett suffered the extreme penalty of the law, by hanging, in the presence of a great multitude of people.
