WHOLESALE CALUMNY.-The Transcript of yester-
day utters most furious and violent TRADE against the
merchants of Now York. because they endeavor to find
out and ascertain the standing and responsibility of
their country customers before they trust them with
goods and property.
The Transcript is published at the Five Points, and
most truly does imbibe the manners of that neighbour
hood. 1t calls the whole commercial community of
New Yerk corps Of spies and infomers. "vilainy,'
thieves" robbers" foul system of espionage
" base plot" malignant eye'% dishonest varets"-
infamous Pouches, of the terms of reproach
which are heaped upon the merchants down town.
Now what is their crime! Merely the establishment,
by house III Wall street, of system of reference, pre-
cisely similar in its nature to that of single merchant
coming here with letters of introduction in his pocket
No moreno less.
The attempt Of tho Transcript to tarnsh the COM
mercial community ofNew York futile and ridiculous
The only questions that grow out Of its preposierous
ebuatons are hese have the large house of Haggey
Co. any thing do with these wholesale ISLANDERS %
Is not their confidential clerk one Davis the principal
proprietor of the print in question:" is possible
that they can counenance such gross and beious as
pensions on the high and honorable commercial COM
munity ofNew York"
We pause for reply.
GRAND Enthusiastically, the Grand Jury formed q
quorum at IL o'clock The following is an accurate
list of the gentlemen composing this important body Of
men:-
Alb. Cargill, FORE Edw s. Cullen, Hiram Rayaor,
man, Stats Nj. Mead, JAS b. Hart
VIM II. Bovine, Francis Tones, S. s. Rockwell,
rhos Egleston, John Lockwood, Nathl. Dewey,
Geo. Hussey, Peter Rowe, Cor NeG
John II. Hicks, All. o. Voorbis, Philip Henry,
p. Lorlard, Jr. Drake Fowler, Simon Male
j. Van Noslrand, Jacob r. Nevius.
This is highly intelligent and respectable Grand
Jury-as much any that have assembled for years.
We have no doubt they will, in their capacity as
Grand Jurors fully redeem their pledges the laws of
the land by taking just and impartial cognizsnce of all
infractions of the laws be these inactions pepeuuted
by the high or low-the rich or poor.
The Recorder addressed them in very happy style,
interspersed with BETTING sentiments. He alluded to
the approaching termination of difficulties with
France, with great felicity and patriotism In the
of the morning, MIR. Phoenix, the District Attorney sent
to the Police Office, saying" the affidavit made
by James watson webb against Benjamin ii. Day, for
purloinng and being accessory the breaking open Of
the seals of package" The afhdavits deliver
ee. The indictments against Day aud Beach (Mr.
Locke is not mplicated founded these afidavit.,
will be ready for the Grand Jury to-day. We do not
suppose il will take long consideration to finish that
business.
In relation TO the State Prison offence committed by
Webb against MIR. Hamilton Wilkes, We have not yet
learned the it will take. Probably the Grand
Jury will themselves begin the proceedings by sending
message for MIR. Wilkes before them and tes-
ty to the facts on which to find an indictment against
Webb.
The whole of this important business is before legal
tribunal, and the public begin watch its progress
with intense interest. Some that no indie tments
will be found at all against these individuals. We
shall see.
