 Review of the New-York Market, Aug. 26.
 Rernarks-N Nothing later or specially important has been received from Europe since our last We are now looking tor nothing that materially affect our condition from abroad-except it be the improvement o our great staple Cotton Our debt is in most ra- pd state Of payment; much so that the English public appear to be astounded. The export of specie still continues, with nothing coming this way We notice that the last Boston trader, fine ship, had but
 two bales of goods on board; and several of our pack cts have reached here with less than 200 pounds of freight, All eyes are now turned towards Congress More than thirty members are now in this city, on minority great hopes. The Message of the President will be read with prodgious interest There has been agreat increase of strangers in city within the past week, and among the grocers there has been good deal going, Among all other classes, trade is at stand. The crops throughout the country abund- ant, but the country was so exceedingly bare of prov sons that 1t will take large quantity to supply its ex-
 Full Sales.-Thcre has been considerable life among the Grocers-but very little activity with the Hard ware or Dry Goods men. The Auctioneers have had a number of Package sales, and they have gone off much better than was contemplated. The amount of business done however, IS quite small compared with
 Domestic Goods-Holders are not as firm as they have been, and are pushing off some descriptions at reduction.
 Dry Goods-The sales by auction have been quite large, and generally at better prices than was expect ed. The exports, however, are very small, and the sales by and to the Jobbers are limited.

 General Jackson, the Merchants, and the Banks.- Week before last-we now quote from the Troy Whig as applicable to our own case-"we published only one of the prGe letters written by the ex-presdent to his familiar of the Globe-but upon reflection think 1t best to give the other upon the whole developing more plainly the ignorance the passions and the ca- lumniating spirit of that mischievous old man.
 Here it is-" dashed off as the Globe has it :" in the broad bold hand of the venerable chef, without the slightest of punctuation The sycophant-- but that he is sycophant- might have added, with out the slightest regard either for grammar truth or decorum.'' tt+

 But the commercial community hitherto has been fostered by the Government to the great injury of the labor o the country, until the mercantile aristocracy, combined with the banks, have assumed the right to control and manage the Government, their partic uar interest requires, regardless of the rights of the great democracy ot numbers, who they believe ought to be, and they are determined they shall be. hewers of wood and drawers of water I repeat, that am proud to see the firm and noble stand taken by the pic are with it, and will support 1t triumphantly.

 At the hands of Gen. Jackson, after what has pas sed, the merchants could expect nothing better-- though they might have hoped that his constitutional reign being ended, his power for good and evil would end with it.
 In this, however, they are. it seems, in error. The poor tool who thought it "gory enough under Gen. Jackson" lacks the moral courage and honesty to think and act for himself even now, when his ter is consigned to private life. {.
 Veracify of the Van Buren Press.-How far any prospective opinion of the administration editors be relied on, in States thoroughly opposition, may be gathered from the following paragraph of the Nash vile Union, before the recent elections in Tennessee
