To *a Beitorf HanM
Sinee Mr. Bennett wrote yo*, per 41 Greet Wee
?erm," on 20ch ult., aliheeah we kire net anjr new
feature of internet to no*ic% yet tome improvement in
the manufacturing district* has been manifeeted, ee
well asinour ooUen market. Oar aeles for the weck>
ending 27th July, yua will observe from the annexed
perticnlnrB, amount te 24,960 balea, of which Were
American, 19,900 balea. Taken on speculation dur
ing that period, 750 American and 1500 Egyptian.?
During the laat four days, ths demand haa been active
from apinnera, but only at our former quotationa, our
aales amounting to 15,000 balea, of which 1000 are on
apeculahon. The opinion gains ground here that the
next year's crop will be 200,000 balee short ef last
year' a, an opinion which aeeraa to be oeoArmed by
the private letters brought per the Pennsylvania ?
These letters adtise that not only haa the eoid spring
haJ a deleterious effect upon the growing crops, but
that hundreds of acres, upor. which cotton wee grown
last year, are planted with new produce. This will
certainly have a very great effect in confirming the
determination of the larger holdera, and especially
Humphries dk Btddle, to keep 150 to 200,000 bales out
of (he market at present, till the demand becomes
more spirited. Whether cotton will be higher or lower
during the preeent year, depends upon an many ex
traneoua circumstances and contingent events, that
it will be difficult to hasard an opinion. It is very evi
dent thai tbe epinnere at preeent, and for the laet six
or seven weeks, have not been purchasing sufficient
to keep up the average, weekly consumption, which
will at least be 22,000 bales per week ; but many of j
them have been draw ng on the atocks which they
laid m during the four weeks in May laat, when the
aalea averaged 46,000 per week. When thia surplus
gets worked op, and the miscellaneous houses have
disposed ef their cotton, there is every probability,
notwithetanding the unparalleledly heavy eteck, that
the three B. e will then demand higher pricee. We
muat, however, keep in view that the orders for goods
from the United Stale* are much lew extensive tban
they were generally expected to be, and also that the
inquiry for yarns fur the Duteh and continental mar
keti generally closes about the beginning of Septem
ber. My own opinion regarding the stock of cotton
at the end of the year, is, that that there will be at
least 150,000 bales of American en hand.
In our colonial markets, nothing has occurred of
much interest. Sugar fully msintains its prices of
last week. The demsnd for Coffee has been very
ex tensive, and extreme prices hare been paid. There
have been no purchaees of Carolina Rice for exporta
tion, from its high price ; a few lota have been taken
for home consumption, at 36s. per cwt., duty paid.
M ah vr Acrvimc Districts. ? I am glad to say
that the news brought by the mails this morning
wears a more cheering aspect than it haa done for
seversl weeks past. There was a very brisk demand
for yarns in Manctieu ryesterday, and in some cases,
high- r prices were obtaim-d ; the demand for goods
wa an mated, although buyers would not con
sent any advance in prices. In Rochdale, also,
the dttnaud for flannels, and at Leeds fur woollens,
has been pretty animated, and prices have in conse
quence rather advanced.
In London the stock market haa been very Hat
Money, on good paper, ean be had on lower terms,
say from 2| a 3 per cent. It is anid that the ftatness
in the public securities has arisen from large epecula
tions in bonded corn, arierng from the prospect of a de
ficient harvest. The influence which the grain market
here exerts on commercial prosperity is inconceivably
great, and will scarcely be credited on your side of the
Atlantic. This ansesfrom two causes ? directly, from
the enormous amount of capital invested in agricultu
ral produce; and, indirectly, from the influence which
the price of bread exercises upon that of labor. The
subject is one of vast importance to the commercial
community, and rtquireo larger epece than I can ait
present devote to the analysis of ito modes of action.
The accounts from the agriculture* district* are quite
conflicting? arising from (he different kinds of sotl.
Crops on light districts will be very good, while om
the heavier emle they have been much injured by the
wet and dsmp. It is said also that the grub, that deo
poiler of grain, boo in many districts commenced its
ravages. From all accounts I am induced to believe
that the crop wiU be considerably below average, and
if so, you must he prepared to send no plenty of fleer.
Wheat has advanced from Is to 2s per quarter since
laat week's quotations.
As to foreign news there is nothing very particular.
I observe from Qalignani that a treaty of commerce
has been signed at Vienna, on the 3d ult., between
this country and Austria. Its particulars have not
transpired, although it te described as being a very
important document. The Pacha of Bgypt is dem
rooa, it is rumored, of throwing off the allegiaaoe, or
rather authority, of the Porte? at least so fsr ss re
gards the interest and future eucoeamon of Ibrahim,
his eon. It is doubtful whsther ho will succeed, eo
pecially as Ruseta will have a finger in the pie. Of
domestic news you will have a complete budget on
your filea of newspaper*, from which you will he able
to make each selections us will smt yonr American
readers Psrliament, it is said, will not be prorogued
till the beginning of September; and in order to in
duce members to remain in town to eo late a period,
several state parties and cabinet dinnera have been
announced. A measure has been announced, aa like
ly to take effect in the course of the present semian,
which will be productive of great beneflta to our com
mercial and social community. I allude to the re

reader, for wkaaa delicate palate we aarve theaa ap, ta

rather than la the material, mew nan* arrrene.
We ehall begin, like chanty, Bearcat heme; and
our big- bellied friends, the amiable brathera Bouncer,
ehall have the high honor of heading our liat, for
which we doubt not their well known character for
magnanimity will induce them ta make an appropri
ate acknowledgment. We beg the world to bear in
mind what we new aolemnly avow, that neither envy,
hatred nor malice, ner any other of the fruitaof un
righteousness, have caased us to undertahe this ser
vice; but simply a d?sue to benefit the rising gene
ration, theee sketches are intended to illustrate and
point out some of the ways to rise, or get rich : we
will begin our labor.
Boi'mcbr & Co.? These are respectable jobbers,
and nch, who have stood it through all the panics;
although they can boast a high descent, they are by
no means t( above buttons," but on the contrary, deal
in that articlepretty considerably; whether they are re
lated to a certain noble family in the south of Ireland
or not, we are unable to tell ; but certain it is, they
came from a Dutchess, and two of them have formed
alliances with the fair daughter of a rich Knight of
the hammer, with fortunes in perspective, while the
third, a Whit-more cunning than bis brothers, has es
poused the fair inhabitant of one of our grovea, with
a fortune in posse saion. One who may have seen
the gallant Lord John Townshend cannot f> il of being
struck with a certain abdominal resemblance which
all three of them bear to thatnoi/e nobleman. Two
of the Boaneers are bank directors, and the other is
the President of a ' company.' In politics, one ia a
whig, one a conservative, and one a loco-foco ? so
that all their customera may be accommodated with
a man u? their taste. Neither of them, we believe, is
an abolitionist, beeauae their FurU lies at the south.
That gentlemen so happily situated should have smil
ing faces, rosy gills, tad big bellies, is not a matter to
excite wonder i but that wealth sad ease, and honors,
which enervate the minds and fancies of ordinary
men should harea contrary effect on them, is worth
noticing. The fact ie lea petit romana of Bouncer &
Co. have gained them a reputation not te be sneezed
at. Their flights of fancy are at times astoanding,
overleaping whole rows of twelve shilling cases. ?
Such rich and surprising romances ought not to be
cincumoeribed to the narrow bounds of rag dealers,
roosers which would maks the nap of a five point
blanket stand on end ; bat it is not for a small genias
like ourseif to follow the flights of oar betters | and
so we leave to abler pens than ours the task of sky
leaping with Bouncer and Co., and proceed to pat on
record, for the benefit of posterity, one of the
Ways to obt Rich.? Sometime darftg the sus
pension of specie payments, when western bills were
at a discount of fifteen to twenty per cent, Messrs.
Bonacer A Co. received from a customer in a western
state a draft on one of our city banksas a remittance,
with instructions to pay a certain part of it to oqs of
their neighbors, also a jobbing-house. The fertile im
aginations of Bouncer & Co. suggested to them the
beautiful idea of making an honest penny by paying
their nsighbtrs their portion of the remittance in
" Wild Cat," and other depreciated billa ; bat these
gentleman rather kicked at the operation? feeling
pretty certain that their caetomera would not have
seat them such trash. Bat Bwuncer A Co. swore up
on their ken ora it was the esse, and of course their
neighbors were obliged to receive it, which they did;
but bore the matter in mind, and when their western
coetomercame down in the spring to make hie par
ehosss, they had the curioatty to enquire of him what
kind of money he sent to Bouncer 4k Co. to be
paid over to them s and en learning the troth, they
merely remarked to a bystander, that Bouncer 4k Co.
had the I.veliest imaginationeof any jobbers in town.
Cnn at axo Good.? This is a most desirable and
attractive caption to any article, but it is not more de
sirable and attractive than icthe subject of ths arti
cle. It hae beea se long a saying that nothing good
can be cheap, that the remark seems to have become
a settled axiom. The first blow made at this maxim,
however, waa done by the eoaalt papers, parhoalarty
tae Haxa.d ; for though the cheapest paper in the
world* wae fouad to be the boot; the neat blow waa
given by the sixpenny ordinaries. Now although they
, were looked coldly on at flrst by the grandees of the
, city, yet stern necessity compelled them to sit down
, at a su penny ordinary so often, that at laot that be
camea pleasure which waooommeaoed ana ncceesity,
, And the consequence is, thai all rationolaaen now see
1 the faily of paying $3 far a dinner when they got
abundance of the boot, with aa much claret at a man
1 ought to drink at a sitting, for 3 shillings ; and if that
is too much, an excellent dinner, ale included, cnn bo
got for throe aixpenoeo. "Aye, eye!" saye oar
readrra, " but where 7" Why at John Sweeny'e, 144
' Fulton street. Those who have never been there
have no idea how comfortable, cleanly, and well

Aator House never osrued up a better pie e of roaot

A New Explobino E*p*ditio?.? We were pleased
to Me in the " Post" of last Monday, an interesting
statement of ? new exploring, or rather trading expe
dition that is now getting up to go to the Pacific
Ocean, by some young men of this city. It smbraces
details too long for this paper, but they are exceed
ingly interesting, anc we commend them to the at

Beakdy.? Who would believe that one ean draw
from wine, by chemical process, that which has not
the color of win*, nor the ordinary effects of the wine?
This water of wine is called by some the water of life
(i ecu de tie) brandy ; aDd it well deserves the nt>me,
since it is truly a water of immortality. Already its
virtues begin to be known; "it prolongs one's life ? it
dissipates superfluous and vicious humours ? it revive*
the heart, and perpetuates youth."
This is the language of the celebrated physician and
chemist, Amaud de Villeneuve, who died about the
year 1300. It appears that distillation was invented
by the alchemists in the course of their experiments
in search of the elixir of life. What would our tem
perance men say new, if one of our respectable phy
sicians should broach such a view as the above? It
is true that alcohol, in various shapes, has made large
numbers bankrupt in property, character and pros
pects, and inflicted upon the community a vast
amount of physical and mental ill in their worst forms.
But we atlii maintain that the akute of a thivg is no
argument against its proper use. A good brandy and
sherry cobbler made by Payne, of Park Row, is as
great ? luxury as a glass of Braden's delicious ice
cream.
Mvaann.? A wretched young woman residing in a
honseof infamy, at No. 3 Little Wtier street, was
assailed a boat a fortnight ago while abed, by a young
man named Daniel Clarke, who, for some cause or
ether, nnknown to the deceased, inflicted a blow
upon her breast with hi* fist with such violence as to
cause her death on Tuesday evening last. The cow
ardly ruffian had the meanness, after bursting open
the chamber door, to strike the defenceless woman as
she lay sleeping ; and that too in the presence of two
of hie associate*, bearing the forms of men, who pas
sively looked oa and countenanced the dastardly act.
The name of the deceased is Elizabeth Moore, aged
22, a native of Boston, Maes. An examination of
the body was made yesterday afternoon, befsre a
coroner's jury, the resalt of which we have not
learned.
O* A travelling dentist, named Bigham, has been
put in jail at Lock port. A young lady, aged 14, pot
herself under his care to have her teeth fixed, and he

loved father, Mr. T. P. Burfbrd, of Hackney, who. about Ibe
year IMS or 10, was raftered to the sight ol his right eye,
through the blrsiing of Gad en your invaluable remedies,
which sight he had lost by a disease the doc torn of London coil
ed * guns serena," and which sight he preserved so as lure ad
with pleasure, for hours together, until the day of bis lomoated
death, which occurred only three j ears and a half since. For
