iSTEAMBoAT GEN. 4BRADv.-4-The Bra
dy arrived at our harbor on Friday last
from Detroit, went to Toledo and return
ed on Saturday. On her way to Detroit
on Saturday she met the anchor Ice near
Maiden, flowing down the Detroit river
in great quantities. She attempted TO
run to Maiden, but her course was OBJ
structed in such amanner that she was
obliged 70 return and finally, after much
difficulty, arrived near the mouth of
Swan Greek. Her sides were much
worn by the rushing of the ice against
her. The passengers made their escape
by getting on to the ice, after they
had broken in so near shore that itwould
bear them. The water wqere she lay
when her sides became so much worn
as to admit the surrounding element was
SO shoal that she may be recovered with
out difficulty should she not, as is to be
feared, 60 to pieces when the lake shall
be cleared by the winds. The passen-
gers and crew had a rough uncomfortable
and dangerous excursion, but all landed
in safety.--Monroe Tines 4

The money market is in a saDage' con-
dition. New phrases must be Invented
for new times. The government mast
abandon its experiments, or the COM
merce of the country will be ruined
The laboring population Of the North
cannot endure the present condition Of
things much longer. They are needy
now anon, they will be hungry, and
loud in their demands on Congress.
What prospect have we ahead? (? What
is industry to do as the season opens /?
Who is TO stimulate springs of indus
try? Every dollar of capital here is
dead capital. Till that Treasury Bill is
thoroughly killed, a capitalist will hard
ly trust dollar out of his sight.
Our banks, in their violent and spas
modic efforts to resume specie payment,
find themselves as powerless as when
they began to make that effort. very
much doubt whether they will be able to
resume till Congress brings to theirtaid
the legitimate machinery of the Govern
ment. Some of the distant newspapers
say, some Of the New York banks pay
specie" There is not bank in the state
that pays specie, in honest meaning of
the term. A good many of them are
hunabugging for the purpose of deluding
the hum6ugged. Anon, the merchants
in this city make some decisive move.-
The present state of things cannot be
borne much longer.
The Packet ship Philadelphia, from
Portsmouth, justin. All England was
talking about Canada-the Parliament,
the People, and every body The news
of the repulse of Col. Wetherelps troops
at st. Denis only, had reached the cap
ital. There was a rumor that 5000
troops had been ordered to Halifax, but
this was not credited. Mr.. Roebuck
says, the Americans will join the Ca
nadians."
The London papers express surprise
that the Canadians seem to have met
with no more sympathy in New York.
Lord John Russell had yielded to call
from Mr.. Leader, for all the facts in
possession of the government. The
conservative party disapprove Of
the recall Of 1t. Gov. Head Canadi-
an funds had fallen considerably. There
was not time before the packet sailed, to
judge what would be the general effect
upon the British people. It's remarka-
bic that in the debate that occurred, the
Irish members were silent. The Chron-
icle says it would be better to give up
Canada than to pay the troops necessa-
ry to keep in subsection if there were no
British population among the French.
From the Continent there is nothing oil

disturbances in Gottngen, and some

A public meeting will Immediately be
called to thank the King for having at
length had mercy on his poor afflicted
subjects in this colony, and to present a
true address to Col.lArthur from the
Colonists. Itis proposed to have an
illumination on Monday, with bonfres,
&c. He will be waited from these un-
happy shores by the sighs and groans,
and the curses of many a broken heart
ed parent, and many a destitute child,
which owe their misery to the foolish
and wicked system of misgovernment,
by which the colony has been ruined
He found the colony rapidly rising to
wealth and respectability-he has left it
sunk in debt and misery. He has neg
lected the useful roads, and ruined the
agricultural interest-he was the father
of usury. His system and the example
of his government, has destr, yed all
confidence between man and man, and
sapped the very foundation of society
and morals. His name will long be re-
membered with detestation and horror.

his system. 2o s.a 4u

gang of forgers and dealers in forged
bills, who have for short time back car
ried on this trade to large extent in diff

other circumstances which have transpi-

James Brown recently arrived in this
city from Wisconsin Territory, and pro-
cured plates to be engraved for, bills of
five, ten, twenty, fifty, and one hundred
dollars, purporting to be on the Farmers
and Mechanics Bank Of Burlington, Wis
consin Territory; no such bank being in
existence, as we ever heard Of. From
the plates SO procured in this city. Brown
got his bills printed to the amount of
100000, and left New York with them,
for the West, about eight days back
These bills, some of which are in the
police office, are admirably executed and
we'll calculated to impose on the public.
