From the Albany Argus Of Saturday

MIR Mackenzie, (and others on whose life price
is set) was at Buffalo the llth instant, having
made his escape through the royal lines with great
difficulty and hazard. The Buffalo Com. ADV. of
the l2th, says
| "He was in disguise, and slept two nights in hay
stacks. Being clothed very poorly and mounted on
good charger, he was once apprehended as horse
1 thief He was armed, but did not wish 10 shoot the
sheriff. So to ascertain his sentiments he commenc-
ed talking politics. The officer expressed himself
warmly in favor of Mr., Mckenzie, upon which he
avowed himself but was not able 10 convince him,
| until he showed him his name marked upon his
linen upon which he was at once enabled to escape.
| II is said that be ore lie had got the river
party of horsemen, in pursuit. appeared on the oppo-
| site bank"
| The fact that Mr. M and some of his compatriots
| were in town, was announced at third public
| meeting Of the citizens, held by appointment at the
Theatre on the evening of the 1llh every foot
Of the house (says the Com. Adv) IRON the orchcs-
| ira TO the roof was literally crammed with people
the pit was full-the boxes were fullthe galleries
were full--the Hobbies were full--the streets we're
| fu--and hundreds were obliged 10 go away with
| out being able 10 gain admission"
| The venerable DIR. Chaplin presided, and expecta-
ton appears to have been on iptoe, tiom the fact
that ii had been rumored that DIR. Rolph would be
present. Such was the expectation OF the COM
mittee" appointed to call future meetings, who as
sured the assembly that he was on his way as fast
as horses could bring him." But the excitement
which was before immense, found relief in thunders
OF applause when the chairman at the conclusion
| OF some remarks, urging prudence ana diScTeuon,
and the strict observance of treaty obligations an
nounced that Mr. Mackenzie, and other of his
associates were at his own house. The Com Adv.
says:
Never saw we such scene-never heard we
such a shout of exultation !! Such enthusiasm is
honorable TO the feelings Of ourciZenS. II not
who called forth such electrical feelings
A few months ago, he might have come among us,
and excited little interest. He comes now as the
champion and Martyr of Liberty. A price is set
on mis- life by the agents OF transatlantic power.
That circumstance alone is enough TO call out all the
feelings of an American assembly
"Felow citizens continued the old veteran, g his
life is in our power, he has thrown himself upon
our proiection--will YOU protect him :"

STOCK MARKET

We copy the following information on this subject
from the Philadelphia Herald and Sentinel, which
hope-coming as ii does from such source
will have saluary influence upon the confidence
of the public in the ability and integrity Of the banks,
which are now hunted down with such unrelenting
hostility
1.-THE market was very dull yesterday. The pro-
ceedings in the Legislature have had dampening
influence upon il. The resolution offered by Mr.
making any dividends during suspension Of specie
payments, has alarmed some holders Of local bank
locks. We see no cause for alarm. Most OF our
banks do not declare dividends until May next, and
will be resumed all over the country. Every thing
indicates IT, Exchange and specie are falling The
The Madisonian. [volume] (Washington City [i.e. Washington, D.C.]) 1837-1845, 1837-12-21

"The nadequacy of the present supply Of gold and
silver to perform the Office of circulating medium
equal to the wants of the community, and the conse-
quent great decrease which would b. required the
supposon Of return to metallic currency, will be
sufficiently apparent from comparison OF The estimated
amount of specie in the country with its inhabitants.
The amount Of gold and silver coin, and bullion, in
this country has been estimated by the Secretary Of the
Treasury to have been SsS0000000 when the suspen-
sion took place--and it is considered TO have since
diminished.
1.-The population Of this country, according TO the
census Of 1890, amounts TO about thirteen millions
thus making six dollars for every individual nhabitant;
or taking only the onehirteenth eighty dollars for each
OF them Would this suffice for the purposes Of traffic
and commerce. What agricutnrst would stock
farm with eighty dollars What merchant could com
mence and carry on business with such small sum
Does not this itself prove the impactcabiity Of
turn to metallic currency without being productive
OF the greatest inconvenience and injury TO the
munity Such system might answer very well for
those who wish to reard the march Of improvement,
and clog and ictcr the operations Of commerce. LA.
