The New YORK MONEY MARKET. The N
York Tribune says" Money continues very
easy, and the approach of the time for quar-
terly report of the Banks has had little or no
influence upon the action of the Banks. We
ba va heard nothing of the usual calling in of
loans and reduction of discounts. The pro-
habiltv is that these institutions have not been
able to expand much since the last report

loans arc occasionally made at tribe lower !

sake of difference in political opinion, the fol.
loving is mentioned by the Washington cor
respondent of the Tribune:
"Mr. James, whose case have before refer
red TO, died on Thursday and was buried yes
terday. He was prominent member Of the
Episcopal church good man, Il worthy citi-
zen, and has left ! widow and six children PEN
nicss, but trust not triendless He had been
for iiye-and twenty years Clerk in the Regis
ter's office, and not Il whisper OF complaint was
ever breathet against him. Mr.. GIlett, with
the appreciation Vi the President, removed this
man from Office Unqualified for any other
employment, he demonstrated against the act,
represented the hel pless condition of his family
was roughly repulSed, went home and fell sick
A congestlye fever came on, and this, aggra-
waited by his distress Of mind, terminated in
brain fever, which resulted in his death. 10

beverage, which, by several Indications,
judged to be punch, whiskoy punch. Twas not
mistaken, glass for each was set out on Il
round deal table, which for further comfort was
placed in front of the tirc-ior although it was
an evening in September, the night was cold
and raw, and ha2y scuddlng clouds gave token
OF an approaching storm. Seats were placed
round this, and each one being seated to his sa-

from the hcartb--the Jug was produced brim-

said Parker taking a sip out of his glass and
stretching his feet far under the table. "Stan-
ly, what makes you so quIel!"
This remark was made during Il slight pause
which occurred in the conversation after, per
haps, two hours Of song-singng, tale-telng,
and every description of mrth, during which
the punch had circulated pretty freely.

been uncommonIy grave for short time. "By
the bye, Parker, what is yonr opinion Of ghosts

scene Of very mysterious dongs?"
well got up start, was the only answer
from Stany and Parker, but Joe fairly lcaped
from his seat, and with noise that startled Us
all whirled his chair round in front of the table,
before the fire, and sinking on it, cast look of
such horror into the depth of the chamber as
made Us all involuntarlly follow the direction
of his eyes with ours. Nothing was to be seen,
however, save the hali-lit gloom for the single
candle which we used gave but an imperfect
light, except in It's immediate vicinity. The
fittul uncertain gleam Of the fire, too, sent the
shadows of ourselves and the table in mingled
confusion across the room.
"Why, Joe, what is the matter with you?-
You are not afraid of ghosts, are you?" said
Stanly.

MORE TROUBLE WITH THE MoRMo

MORE TROUBLE WITH THE MoRMoNs-Seri-
Gus Disturbance. A correspondent of the St
Louis Republican, writes from Warsaw, H.,
under date of the | lth inst. as follows:
"Ou Tuesday morning last, Goth inst.,) an
attack was made on n school house, in Rocky
Run Precinct, by some persons unknown, but
supposed to be Mormons, in which there was at
the time ofthe attack convention OF Anti-Sl
mons, or old settlers Of the county. The door
and windows oflhe house were completely rid
died by the shots fired by the assailants. The
attacking party approached under cover of the
weeds and bushes, and fired one round and fled.
No person was injured, but many were, pre-
sumo, much frightened at this sudden and un-
expected assault. The old settlers in that sec
ton the countYarned themselves for defence,
and if they are backed by their friends in other
parts Of the county, blood will flow. BY IL

powder, Amt, &C., learn that four buildings
were huupd down last night, and one man

ture, were seen vending their way to the City

southern part of the county, and that number
Of families from the interior are on their way tO
Warsaw, seeking protection | can form no
opinion what the result will be. The storm
may pass over without any very serious conse-
quencc, and there may be much destruction OF
property, and the loss Of maay lives before
peace and quiet shall be fully and permanent
ly established in this unhappy county"
