FIRST STEAMBOAT TRIP UP
. THE SABINE.

A recent steamboat trip up the Sa-
0ine rivrr,-the boundary between the
United States and Texss.- has estab>
lIshed the importan. fact that that rIver
is now navigable for STEAMBOATS, for the
distance of nearly four hundred miles
from the mouth. The New Orleans
Bulletin derives the following interesting
particulars respecting this river, aud the
first steamboat tip made upon it, from
Captain Walker, Of the United State.
Army.
The steamboat Vrlocipede, under the
command OF Captains Wright and Del.
more. with length, Of l25 fe-,,a breadth
OF ~ feet, and draught Of 5 feet, has re-.
turned from her trip up the river hav.

voyage to this landing and returning
the boat did not sustain the sJiob,.s,

NEW YORK MONEY MARKET,

We copy from the New York Ex>
press the subJoiDed. which shows at
least the opinion entertained by sume,
of the new Measures in the Empire
State.
The measures adopted by our Legis.
!atu'e at Albany are looked TO with great
interest. The bill repeating the Re.
s'raining Law, and authorizing Private
Banking. has become a law nearly as i,
passed the ssrmbiy but one i'm por.sr,
amendment, and that requiring IL l.2
per cent in specie to be Kept On baud
Tor every dollar of circulation. This is
an important era in the history of Bank.
ing. For nearly halt century, politi.
clans aid individuals have almost annu
ally repaired 20 Albany to ob..in bank
charters. Hardly any have been grant.
ed that have uol been charged with
iIaud aud corruption. Latterly these
interpretations have been granted avow.
eddy TO pay political partizans. The
scene will now be wholly changed
Banks must all be organized under this
act. Their capitals Dust consis, of Real
Estate and State Stocks. Those who
are enabled by their credit or capital 10
raise funds. and can comply with the
provisions of the law, enter at once into
all the advantages of banking. Under
this act there will be no difficulty in or
ganzing an institution with a capital Of
thirty, forty or fifty millions, aud such
an one as will have commanding jpGu
ehce III the country. 1t is in fact. an
experiment. The State Of New YorL
has taken the lead and her people have
the skill, capital and disposition, to give
it trial. It's success will be looked Up
TO with no small interest from all parts
OF the county. Should j. work sell,
there IS no doubt it would be extensively
followed. There can be 30 doub! tha.
the plan is one that will give eres,
and increased demand for Bonds and
Mortgages and for State Stocks.
The state Of exchanges are now so ru.
nous that almost all collections at the
South aud West are at au end. The
distress falls peculiarly heavy on the
creditors OF some Of our suspended hou.
ses. One house of this description lha.
suspended about piue monihs sioee, ow-
