They were not, or at least professed not to be, the frieuds of the bankers, but of the people, in framing those charters. Well, one might reasonably hope, that these institutions of their own creation were as near perfection, in their eyes, as the wit of man could make them, and that they would receive fair play, to say nothing of kindness, at the hands of their creators. But what do we seer" The democrats not only make the banks, and become stockholders in them, but use them as much as they can by borrowing money from them whenever they want it and can get it.

He also said that it will be better to feed the vicious who will avail them selves of an opportunity to plunder and pillage, than to pay the citizens for their property after it is stolen or destroyed.

Such loose morality as this naturally had its effect upon the "vicious," and they appear to be on the eve of putting it in practice. One of them told his followers, in a it- i I TT speecn irom me steps oi toe vustoni exouse in Wall street, that "there were twenty millions of dollars in that street, while they were starving for want of work." The meetings and processions are composed al most entirely of foreigners. One of the remedial measures proposed by the General Superintendent of the Police is to arm 220 of tbe most trusty policemen with revolvers. The telegraph would bring them all to any re quired point in a few minutes, and it is supposed that the mere exhibition ot such formidable in struments will quell almost any disturbance. The memory of the Astor Place riots, some 12 lor 15 years ago, and the use of ball cartridges to such terrible effect, has kept the peace in New York until very lately.

It is quite likely that the same scene will goon again be re-enacted to a more fatal extent. P. S. This morning's mail brings us only the following items on the subject: Washington, Nov. 10 Defence of the Sub- Treasury at New York.

Journal. We are very particular not to convert other newspapers' editorials into our own, though we very little for the measure of regard to the" laws of meum and tuum as exhibited by others towards us. It is rather a compliment than otherwise to have one's articles appear as the editorials half a dozen contemporaries, in which capacity have occasionally had the pleasure of reading own. But we do not like to be credited with things which do not belong to us; sometimes because the article might be owned with pleasure if were really our property, and sometimes because should be ashamed of tbe possession. Of the former we noted an instance some little time ago, which our friend of the Hillsborough Recorder was robbed to give us credit: of the latter an instance in the Salisbury Watchman this morning, which we are credited with an article headed "Affairs in Baltimore," which we never had the pleasure of seeing before, and which we are very sure never had a place in the Observer.

Very certain we are that we never spoke of Gov. Wise "JiDO-snin, a witticism wnicn we nave never had the acuteness to appreciate, often as it has figured in tbe Virginia Press; quite as certain that did not speak of Wise and Ligon, the governors of Virginia and Maryland, as "asses." A white man named Jos. Underwood, said to a native of Union County, was arrested in Charlotte on Friday night last, whilst negotiating with a negro man belonging to David Parks, (in Mr. Kitchen,) to induce him to runaway. The negro informed his master of Underwood's proposition, and took care that an officer should be so placed as to overhear the conversation and thus have a legal witness of the rascal's guilt.

Underwood was committed to jail. He says that others were connected with him in the business. New York Election.

New York Schools. The Board of Education of New York City have appropriated for next year 1,216,013. This amount is $150,000 larger than the expenditures this year; and the City papers grumble not a little that such an increase should be made when tbe times are so hard, the city taxes 8,000,000, and a deficiency of $2,000,000 at that. A considerable portion of the increase is to supply the male schools with pianos! Bank of Wilmington. The annual meeting of the stockholders of the Bank of Wilmington was held at their banaing bouse yesterday.

The old board of Directors was re-elected, viz: Jno. McRae, Alfred Martin, J. R. Blossom, J. L.

Hathaway, L. A. Hart, II. P. Russell, Robert Norfleet.

The question as to whether any dividend would be declared, and if so how much, was submitted for the consideration of the stockholders. The net profits since the last dividend being about six per cent. Some disposition was shown to have the whole divided; others favored 5 per and the general feeling seemed in favor of 3 per cent, until the Bank should resume specie payments. It was resolved to declare a dividend at the usual time of such amount as the Directors deemed best. At the meeting of the Directors, Jno.

ean in in It the The money market at New Orleans is decidedly easier, and confidence is beins sraduallv restored. At Boston money matters have assuned a very nc cheering aspect. Tuesday's Journal of Commerce says: The week opens with an active money market, at rates in favor of the borrower where the secu rity offered is undoubted, but with a farther gen eral movement towards liquidation in nearly all branches of trade and commerce. Foreign Exchange fell off toward the close of the day, buyers not taking hold freely, but we cannot expec' a return of low rates until we re ceive Cotton Bills from the South. Some of the eading bankers here are determined to send specie, and we suppose the agent of the Rothschilds will ship to the full extent of bis sales, having ar ranged to this effect, with the House in London and Paris.

These shipments will be facilitated by a preconcerted arrangement abroad through which a preference is to be given in discounting, to those bills sold for the purpose of returning the gold to Europe. The Persia will probably take upwards of a million, unless the sales of exchange here should be suddenly checked. The Stock market is active and buoyant, a farther advance having been realized on the leading railroad securities. State bonds are also firmer. There has been at last an actual expansion of the volume of loans and discounts; the increaso is small, but the line is actually crossed.

The gain in specie is very large, much larger than was anticipated, but this will now be reduced by return shipments to Liverpool. The amount of specie in the banks has increased to $16,492,152. The Grocers' Steam Sugar Refining Company in New York has made a bad failure. Its capital was $750,000, which is all supposed to be lost, and the assets insufficient to pay $600,000 "of other liabilities. George A.

Clark, Assistant Cashier and Paying Teller of the N. Y. Grocers' Bank, has absconded, after defrauding the bank of $68,000. The N. Y.

Independentsays, The sales by importers during the week have been limited to those at auction. Of the goods offered only a portion was sold, and prices realised were low, even for choice French goods at a credit of four Few or no orders are being sent out for the Spring trade. The "extended" indebtedness to Europe will have to be liquidated before heavy importations are again made. The contrast of business between this last October and that of October 1856, is strikingly shown in the receipts at custom in each of these years: la October, 1856. the receipt were $3,549,737 98 Do 1857, do do only 892,110 43 A diffrence of 52,657,627 56 equal to seventy-five per cent.

The domestic commission houses do not appear to be doing any business of moment. The job bers continue to sell to a moderate extent, but at low priees, mostly for cash. There is no doubt that all staple goods will pay well for keeping another year, as production is so much reduced, and the cost of the raw material is not falling. Large sales can only be effected at prices helow cost. When the demand becomes aotive, some 1 1 ill UCUVVi Illicit? Will IO 1UUUU ACT KWUO, IU WUUI- I I parison, to supply the market.

No large business is now expected until the farmers have sent their crops to market, which will not be till after next pnng. With this prospect of trade, the disposi tion will be to keep on hand small stocks. It will take another harvest to set all things right. Grain. Thirty ships are now loading with grain and flour at New York for Europe.

Each ship will carry about 20,000 bushels. Such a wholesale exportation of these two staple articles is unprecedented. Forty-seven vessels, with 600,000 bushels of wheat, are now afloat from the upper lake ports for Oswego. A Tabjf. The Philadelphia ress, Col.

Forney's paper, (supposed to be the confidential organ of President Buchanan,) pub- ishes an elaborate and able eommunication in favor of a bigbjprotective tariff, as the remedy of all others for' the ill condition of financial affairs. This is a sign worth noting. Have the powers that be found out that they will be driven to the adoption of a higher tariff at the next session of Congress? And are Pennsylvania Coal and Iron so strong in the person of a Pennsylvania President, it is intended to discriminate in favor of protection to American productions? Receipts of Cotton. The total receipts are 290,827 bales, against 536,505 bales last year. Decrease, 245,678 bales.

Receipts or Specie. During the month of October $7,451,195 in specie was received at New York; New Orleans and St. Louis. $5,166,901 was 'York: $3,000,000 came from Cali- fornia; the remainder from foreign countries. Less than half a million was shipped from this country durine the same teriod; Duplin Codntt Fair.

A correspondent of at the Wilmington Journal speaks in glowing terms of the success of the Fair at Kenansville last week, and of the admirable address of Wm. W. olden, Esq. which is to be published. Hard to Sell.

The Cincinnati Commercial tells of some bacon which haa been seeking a market under difficulties. A large quantity was shipped from that place to Liverpool last Spring, remained there all the Summer without finding a' nnrhAr. wa roshinned tn Nw York in of better luck, found the market flat, and is now 1. i -1. a jr" to be sent back to Liverpool, where the price nas gone up in oonsequence of theJieavy shipments to New York.

A large quantity will go back on the same Bteamer which brought it to this country. The Journal of Commerce tells of 1400 pkgs of lard which has had the same luck, and was turned out of store on Monday to make its third voyage aurusa tuu What with freight, insurance, wharfage, dray- age, ratage, postage, and stealage, it very doubtful whether the owner "saves his though air and water may be good for it. had had the we th care of we our it we in in as we be I I i i I freight. To the same effect, the Boston Post publishes comparative tables of Northern and Southern contributions to the exports from this country for some years past. In 1849-50, the total exports were $136,946,912.

Very nearly two-thirds of this were furnished by tbe South in Cotton and Tobacco alone: of the former of the latter $9,951,023. In 1851, exports cotton $112,315,317, tobacco $9,219,250. 1852, exports, $192,368,984: cotton $87,965,732, tobacco $10,031,283. 1853 exports $193,417,697: Cotton $109,456,404, 1854, exports $253,390,870: cotton $93,596,220, tobacco $10,016,046. 1855, exports $246,708,533: cotton $88,143,844, tobacco $14,712,468.

1850, exports $310,586,330: cotton $128,382,251, tobacco $12,221,843. It seems, therefore, adds the Post, "by the figures, that when Mr. Banks undertakes to enlighten commercial men, he either knows not what he is talking about, or else for low, sectional ends he intentionally misstates the truth. Cotton alone freights more than tioo-thirds of our outward bound vessels.

A Mormon War. Each fresh -arrival of intelligence from Utah confirms the reports of preparations by the Mormons to resist the entrance of the United States troops into their Territory, and gives consistency to the opinion that we are on the eve of a Mormon war. The news of the approach of an armed force to coerce them into submission has not the awe-inspiring effect upon the Mormons which was at first expected. They are levying armies of their own; raising infantry, equipping cavalry, and organizing for desperate resistance to the approach of the Government troops.

They are building forts, planting garrisons, laying in provisions, and putting themselves in a posture of defence. They will not act on the defensive. They will take the field, meet the invading army long before it gets within sight of their chief city, make attacks upon it from fortified strongholds in the mouutains, harass its march, cut off its supplies, and perhaps leave it destitute of provision and shelter, to perish of hunger and cold in midwinter on the desert. The problem of the ability of one hundred thousand people, inspired by a blind religious fanaticism, concentrated in a well provisioued city in the midst of the mountains, eleven hundred miles from the base of operations of an invading force, the question of the ability of a people so situated to hold out against such a power as the United States is about to be solved. We have our forebodings as to the result.

The Mormons, if hard pushed, can rally ten thousand fighting men. 'By judicious leagues with the surrouudinsr tribes of Indians they can augment this force to twelve thousand. Being chiefly an agricultural people, without any outlet for their products, they can supply themselves with an abundance of provisions. They can fortify the mouutaiu passes, and dispute, step by step, the approach of an in vading force; while they can render their savage allies efficient instruments by sending them out to annoy and harass their enemies. The body of the troops will not be able to reach Salt Lako City, even if the Mormons allow them to march unmolested, before tbe dead of winter.

Arriving at such a time, they will be completely at thg mercy of their enemies. Wo have much confidence in the officers in charge of this expedi tion, and rely much on the spirit of the troops under them; but the officers and troops will prove themselves worthy of even more confi dence than we repose in them if they save themselves from utter ruin in the face of the obstacles in their way.

But that cannot be an evil when the banks really issue less than one dollar for every dollar of capital. If it be wrong to issue less than dollar for dollar, waa it ignorance or corruption which induced the Locofocos to allow an issue of three for one? Another complains that if an individual refuses to pay his debts he is broke, while the banks only suspend, and the public tolerates this. Well, if an individual refuses to pay his debts, he can be sued and his property taken to pay principal and 6 per cent, interest; whereas if a bank refuses to pay, it also can be sued and its property taken to pay principal and 12 per cent, interest. Again: it is complained by these financial quacks that it is the issue of small notes that is the great evil. If so, who put the authority in the charters? But that this is not the cause is manifest from the fact that the banks of Pennsylvania and many of the Virginia banks were the first to suspend, though small notes are neither issued nor circulated in those States; whilst New York was among the last to suspend, though that State is flooded with small notes; and the Bank of Fajetteville, the only Bank in North Carolina which has in circulation the smallest de nomination of notes, has not suspended at all! It is said that "corporations have no souls," but if there is one of them in North Carolina which has so small soul as one of these Loco- foe demagogues, it is to be pitied indeed.

AU Gain and No Lost. The Bank of Cape Fear has declared a semi-annual dividend of 3 per payable on and after the 9th inst. The Bank of Cape Fear is in a state of suspension, and if you present one of its notes, bearing on its face a promise to pay on demand, you are coolly told you can't get the specie that the promise will not be fulfilled; but if yoa are a stock holder you can get a dividend. Such is a bank; and each its privileges over those of individuals. pro8 are reaped, but the promises broken KaleigK Standard.

We don't see where are the so-called "privileges over individuals."
