UNITED STATES BANK BUILDING.—The
extinction of the United States. Bank leaves that magni-
ficent edifice in the hands of the assignees, as a part of
its available property. To what use it will now revert,
is matter of conjecture. This splendid pile was com-
menced in 1819. h was five years in building. The
original expense was pOO,OOO, but when the old bank
charter expired, it was sold to the present institution for
$300,000. The building is purely of white marble, and
both inside and out scarcely any wood is to be seen.
From Chestnut-street the bank is reached by a lofty flight
of marble steps. It presents a splendid front of 80 feet in
width, with eight Doric columns, four feet six inches
in diameter, and 27 feet high, 'The building is 161 feet
long, and the porticoes at each end correspond. Both
internally and externally the style and finish are equally
massive and beautiful. The principal banking room is
48 feet wide and.Bl feet long, with an arched ceiling,
supported by rows of marble columns. Aside from this,
there are a multitude of apartmedits. f►r the use of the
different officers and directors, as well as for engravers
and copperplate printers. It is admired for its beau-
tiful proportions, as well as for its imposing size and
classic architecture.

when (loath put an end to his sufferings. The Coroner
stated that in strictness the case was one of manslaughter.

from the effects of drinking a quantity of beer, given
to Trim by' Samuel -Hall, William Towel, Robert Pirinock,

MARKET INTELLIGENCE.

( From the London New Price Current of October 1.)

SUGAR.—There has been an increased desire evinced on the
part of both grocers and refiners to purchase British Plantation
Sugar this week ; for bright yellow and strong grey qua-
lities the demand has been brisk, and nearly all the parcels
on show have found ready purchasers at prices is., and
in some cases Is. 6d., above those of last Friday; indeed the
supply is not ample for the wants of the trade. Low and
brown kinds have met with more attention ; a good demand
has prevailed, and the rates paid are generally equal to those
of this day week.
To-day there was less life in the West India mallet, still
purchases to a fair extent were made for both grocery and re-
fining purposes; holders were firm, and former rates were
fully supported ; good and fine yellow sorts are, however, still
wanted, but of such few samples were on show. The total
purchases for the week arc 2,800 hhds and trcs.
HanNan.—The market fur Refined Goods was in a dull
state in the early part of the week, and prices declined Is per
cwt, but during the last two days buyers have been more on
the a!ert. For Dutch Crushed Sugar there has been a much
better demand, and 400 tons have been sold at 27s 3d on
board in Holland.

To-day Refined Goods met with a good demand for home
use at firmer quotations; Standard Lumps 80s 6d per cwt.
Crushed moved off slowly at 29s 9d for first sort. In other
articles no change.
This afternoon there was a good demand, and at public sale
6,694 bags 50 casks were all sold with spirit at is advance on
last sale's rates for yellow kinds ; brown forts sent rather
higher; fine yellow fetched 6.5 s to 675, good GOs to 645, mid
to good mid 54s to 595, low 53s to 53s 6d, low brown 36s to
.445, mid 45s to 475, good to fine 48s to 52s 6d per cwt.
LAST Isana.—Prices have been fully supported for white
qualities of Bengal, and for home consumption a good demand
exits, especially for the better sorts; in brown the operations have
been on a more extended scale, prices being sufficiently low to
enable shippers to make purchases.
This afternoon there was no public sale of Bengal, but by
private treaty purchases to a fair extent were made at full rates.
Of Manilla 277 bags were offered at public sale, and sold at
14s for damp.
MOLASSES.—This afternoon at public sale 186 puns Foreign
were nearly all taken at full rates, Viz. Martinique at 6s 6d,
and Cuba at 8s per cwt.
FOREIGN. —The market for yellow Havannah has been in a
quiet state ; holders have been more desirous to realise, and
have submitted to a reduction on former rates of 6d for good,
and is for the lower sorts the operations privately have been
500 boxes at 21s for goad mid quality, but of old importation.
low white Bahia at 21s, good and fine dry brown 17s to I 7s6d,
soft brown I'ernams 14s 6d, and a floating cargo of low white
Paraiba at 2ls 9d, deliverable at Amsterdam. For public sale
on Thursday 190 chests 130 brls 850 bags Pernambuco, and
for Friday 241 cases 56 brls 874 bags Maceio are declared.
TEA.—The operations in Free Trade Tea have been upon
a small scale this week, and the market has presented a quiet
appearance ; low common Congou has been disposed of at
Is 910 per lb. In the speculative market, however, a fair
business has been transacted, and Company's Congou have
produced Is 10d to Is 10id, cash. There have been further
arrivals. The deliveries of Tea, however, are on the
increase, and last week reached 527,0001b5, 68,418ibs
of which were damaged, cx Westminster, and were
allowed to be taken for home use at a duty of Is 4id to I s
bi per lb. The Overland Mail is daily expected. To-day
there was an improved demand for Free Trade Tea, and holders
displayed more firmness. Of the total quantity passed the
sales to•day amounting to 12,000 packages, 6,000 were actually
disposed ot. Congou, ordinary, sold at is. 10d, good ord Is
104 d to is lid, middling blackish leaf 2s Id to 2s 11d, strong
blackish leaf 2s 2d to 2s 4d, fine and Pekoe kind 2s 51,0 to
2s 31/ad ; Gunpowder, ordinary, 2s aid, good 4s 3d per lb. '
Company's Congou met with a good demand, and closed firmly
at is 10id cash. For public sale next week 18,000 packages
are declared.

Cocoa.—This afternoon the public sales consisted of 1,000
bags Guayaquil and 130 bags West India ; the former sold at
36s dd to 37s for good quality, being cheaper ; the latter
nearly all taken in, low Trinidad at 40s per cyst;
COFFEE.—The West India Coffee market has been in a
quiet state all the week, the trade continuing to purchase
barely ample for their present wants. This may be attributed to
the large stocks of Coffee remaining in bond, and which
are equal to nearly two years consumption at this port;
prices have been supported this week for all middling sorts, the
supply of which having been small, but for ordinary to fine fine
era kinds, prices have suffered a depression of 4s to 6s per
cwt. This afternoon the home trade were cautious in
their proceedings, and the market presented a dull aspect
for all kinds of Coffee. Importers were generally desirous to
realise, and offered at public sale 1,000 bags La Guayra from
the Cape, 450 bags St. Domiage, 1,984 bags East India, and
150 casks British Plantation; La Guayra all taken in, good
ordinary pale at 44s 6d to 455, fine ordinary 64s 6d ;
St. Domingo fetched 40s to 41s for good ordinary colony ;
East India only partly sold at 2s decline, good to fine ordinary
Semarang went at 41s to 455., and good ordinary Pedang 36s ;
West India only partly sold, but prices underwent no further
depression, middling and good middling Jamaica fetched 106 s
to 114 s, good to fine fire ordinary 63s to 95s per cwt.
Russ, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.-The Rum market has
been in a dull state since this day week, and the total pur-
chases this week have not exceeoed 130 puns, at a reduction
on former rates of Id per gallon—proof Leewards selling at
