JAMES GORDON BENNETT, ESQ.,
DEAR SIR =
1t is an old saying that troubles, misiortunes
never come single, and we have il proved here TO
vast extent; we have bad currency, no specie OF
consequence, and Unprecedented hard times but
our cup it seems was quite full yet, the elements
must have share.
This morning, about o'clock, Messrs Ludlow
e. Smiths American Theatre discovered to be
fire, and in five minutes, rapid did the devour.
ing flames spread, that It was entire blaze, and
in twenty minutes from the time the alarm was Civ.
tn, it was totally destroyed leaving but small
corner standing for the owls to come and roost in,
as they have done in the ruins of the San Carlos ot
late. We are now left with but one small Theatre,
the Orleans (French Theatre) down in the French
district, which is of but little use 10 the uptown
Yankees, The lire is supposed TO be the work OF an
ncendlary 1t was insured--a part here and a
small amount in some Northern office, probably in
your city.
Our currency is working out its own salvation
no one thinks of taking any of the broken bank
notes. and they are daily becoming scarcer not be.
cause they are improving In value but because the
discount is so very great that they will not bring
enough 10 pay one ior seng, win the exception OF
the Mechanic and Traders which is only TO 7
per cent discount. The Attorney Generalh has COM
menced suits against four of them, viz Citizens,
Canal, Commercial and Consolidated, for neglect
ing to comply after twenty days notice with the pro-
vision of the law, that requires each bank TO have
dollar in specie for ever three in circulation; some of
these four banks have of late kept special deposits
| well locked up,so much SO that number have been
| disappointed in getting them when called for or,
in other words, they have robbed Peter to pay Paul
The Attorney General has also given the city notice
that unless she is the situation required by law
within twenty days, that he will Immediately
| commence suits against her also. have not time
to expose the course that some of our cotton fac
tors have taken of late, viz selling for specie and
then bringing deprecated paper TO pay the drafts
that the planter draws them, and say, take that
or nothing thereby making twenty 10 thirty per
cent profit this is fact and no mistake-and the
planters will do well to look TO it,
No late news from Mexico. War with that
country is looked upon here, if it comes, great

here can return with perfect safety and attend to
their business and pay their debts live economically,
