Fatal NisrAKE.-The Coroner, yesterday held
an inquest at No. 81 Renwick street. on the body OF
Mrs Whtock, aged 30 years, born IL Orange county,
New York, who came TO her death in the following
manner:-lt appeared by the evidence produced that
on Saturday evening feeling ndlsPosed Mrs Whit
leck went to closet in n room beneath that in which
she was sitting, for the purpose Of taking some mag
nesis. Imprudcndy, she took light with her, pro-
ceeded to the closets mixed and swallowed wha, she
supposed to de dose Of magnesia, bat which proved
to be arsenic. In short time after taking the poison
the usual symptoms began 10 manifest themselves
Imagining them to be caused by the magnesia, they
were at first dsregarded; but becoming in a short
time drcadfuy acute, aphysician sent for, who
Immediately declared the lady had taken poison.
Tho closet was examined, and bottle was found
containing, and labelled Arsenic which Mrs Whit
lock had, in the dark, mistaken for the one she I'M
agncd to be there, and thus this fatal accident
Three other physicians were subsequently called in
but their efforts to save her life, proved unavane.
Theuniortunate lady expired soon after midnight, eS-
periencing the most terrible agony.

n MORE BANK INsoLgNcE-W learn that one Of the
broken and suspended Montreal banks has sent d.
rectons to their agent in Wall street. commence
action against us for S50 900 damages in consequence
of publication made in Wall street report that
one Of their bills Of exchange had been returned from
England their endorsers here-a fact unquestiona-
bly, true of one of these swindling institutions.
The agent here replied to the bank swindlers in
Montreal that in the present state Of public indgna
ton IN New York, it was dangerous to commence
any action against the press by which the conduct
OF the banks could be drawn into controversy The
suit was therefore abandoned-but the fact shows the
lntolerable nsoence, folly presumption and wicked
ness OF the banks as now conducted. They seem TO
have thrown off all shame at the same time that they
committed the violation Of all law AMI Justice.
II will soon be necessary to destroy all banks
throughout the world. They have already set all laws
at Defiance and unless they kept short by the head
they will do more mischief Total annhilation Of
state banks will soon be the wachword of every no.
nest man.
APoLTIcAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS OF SPECIE
PAyMENTs.-The friends Of Daniel Webster and of
the resumption of specie payments by new national
bank, preparing to hold great public meeting in
Masonic Hall to nominate him to the presidency, and
to express their opinion in favor of restoration of
specie payments by the action of Congress. Mr..
Webster has always been in favor of specie paying
currency and opposed to rredeemable paper money
the worst of evils. The great mass of the wing party
in this city honest men and of the like opinions.
They will therefore come out, organise, and adopt
measures to carry out both these great objects
AS for our own poor SELF never NEEDLE, and
care nothing for presidential afTars-but far as the
wing party will avow themselves in favor of public
honor and public faith by resumption of specie pay
ments through the creation of national bank, we
shall go with them heart SOUL body and salvation.
The Wall street swinders bankrupts, SPECTATORS and
their corrupt organs. such as the "Ceurier and En-
quirer," the Express" and the journal" are OPP
posed to resumption of specie payments-opposed
to Daniel Webster and have been preparing to cheat
the public by perssting in paper money until all
their speculatons in lots and lands stocks and other
bubbles should be forced upon other hands They
will not succeed.

QUITE HERoINE.-It will be re.
collected by our readers, that in our
last paper, we noticed the conviction
Of James Skaggs and Richard Heath,
for passing counterfeit money. The
latter convie: made his escape on last
Sunday night. in a manner somewhat
singular. The wife Of the prisoner
was admitted by the jailor to sn inter
view with her husband, representing
that she Was about TO leave this country,
and that il was the last time she expect
ed to see him. After some time, the
joiloF returned To the prisoners apart
ment. and found Mrs. Heath. las was
supposedly ready 10 take leave Of her
husbsnd-wrapped up in her cloak,
and her face concealed by her bonnet.
Thus attiTed she was suffered TO pass
out Of the prison, all the time sobbing
aloud in the greatest apparent distress.
On visiting the isil the next morning,
instead ofihe eonvict, Mrs. Heath was
found neatly dressed in the clothes Of
her husband, who had been permitted
20 pass out, in the manner described,
the night previous. The heroine, after
. loud laugh, explained 10 Der visiteI
the secret Of her husbands escape.
