New YORK MONEY MARKET.-Re Restoration
of Confidence. The New York Express of Fri.
day evening has the following remarks on the
state of the money market:
eve have rarely witnessed a more sudden
and unexpected change in the monied con-
Germs of the city than that which has taken
place within the last twenty-foul hours The
panic has been uncommonly severe; so much
so, that had 1t continued month. or even two
weeks longer, there must have been numerous
and extensive failures. There began to be a
little better feeling when the Oregon question
was determined by so large ma ority i'll the
Senate. Still the sub-treasury had passed one
House, and reports stated that it would pass
the other. The consequence was that the mo-
ney market became nearly as tight as ever
Yesterday, however, the whole public were at
once relieved by the declaration of the chair
man of the Finance Committee, that the Ware
house and Mint Bills will be acted on first,
and that under no circumstances will the Sub
Treasury, with the specie clause, be reported
to take effect before January of next year.
This has relieved the feelings ofcapitalists and
the community at once. And to-day every
thing is buoyant. 1t is generally conceded
that there was no cause for the panic, but the
fear Of the passage of the Sub-Freasury and
the Oregon question; both Of which are now
disposed OF, for at least year to come. Con-
idence will, therefore, be restored, and most
favorable change will follow"

A HEALTHY PLACE. 1t is stated that on u
plantation in Selma, Ala. where the lands are
low and uncommonly rich, and where there are
hundred or moro slaves, who have resided
there for the last seven years, not single death
among the old or young of these negroes has
occurred! not even an infant has died within
this period!

A REMARKABLE CAT. The editor of the Ce-
Gil Democrat has the following notice of re.
markabIe cat. 1t reads like a remarkable
story to us.
ga gentleman near this place, has cat
which he attempted to kill, twice by shooting
and once by hanging, but could not succeed
and he has now concluded to let her rest in
peace. But the most remarkable part of the
story is, that she can open all doors fastened
with thumb latch only; and the gentleman
says that he put her in closet, that opened
upon the inside, and secured by latch; but q
short time elapsed before she was seen coming
out, looking as innocent as any cat could. We
think there are but few cats that evnce SC
much sagacity as this one"

PoToMAC FISHERIES. We have various ac-

Potomac are doing little or no business at pre-

INDIAN Corn IN ENGLAND.-Corn Meal
Biscuits. The introduction of corn meal into
England is creating great excitement there,
and we notice that they are feastng on bis
cults in Ireland, made entirely of corn meal.
This beats us Yankees, little, as we believe
it is used in almost every possible way, except
for biscuits; but, we presume, we have some
thing yet to learn on this score. BY the way,
the English who are now receiving our Indian
corn, have not yet been initiated into the mys-
terry of making hominy, one of the most pala-
table dishes that can be produced. They
should try it, by all means. w. II. Robert
son, Esq, U. S. Consul at Bremen, in letter
to the Hon. Dixon Fl. Lewis, dated London,
March 8, says;
81 was at the Treasury yesterday morning,
when the under S cretary informed me that the
demand in Ireland was greater than could be
supplied Of the Indian corn meal; that the gov.
eminent were only distributing to those in alb
solute want at i'd. per pound; that all were
becoming fond of It; and that he considered il
the greatest revolution that had ever taken
place in the habits or taste of any people. The
progress here also is great. The premium o.
one hundred guineas by the Society of Arts
will be awarded on the 10Th inst; and [ shall
try to get it for baker in Dublin by the name
of O Brien, who is making the best bread-s1
parts out ofseven corn meal, as light as any
other bread, and very excellent biscuit of corr
meal entire"

MONDAY MORNING,

The SUPERINTENDENT AND THE SENATORS
DAUGHTER. The Anglo-Saxon propensity fol
thieving and mutiation betrays itself among the
flowers in the garden of the Capitol at Wash
ngton. A letter to the Evening Mirror tells
the following characteristic anecdote:-
The Capitol Garden looks blooming and pro-
missing, under the management of the incom-
parable Jimmy Maher. | am sorry to say that
Jmmy's temper is too often put to the test, by
the ladies and daughters of the members, who
think nothing at all of plundering the garden
of its choicest flowers 1t eGen happens that
the fruits of his care and solicitude for many
weeks are destroyed at Zone fell swoop" by
some wilful Dame and Miss. The other even
ing young lady, the daughter of one of the
grave and reverend Seignors who compose the
Senatorial body, made descent upon some
of the rarest specimens of Jmmy's horticul-
tulal skill. The outraged gardner remons-
trated-promised to give her flowers, as soon
as they should become little more advanced,
and politely insisted upon preventing any more
piracy of the kind. Now Jimmy is a Jewel
Of fellow-a Jolly good-tempered lrishman.
His heart is soft and mealy as an Irish potatoe:
but he has some tender points, and deep and
enthusiastic affection for his flowers Is one of
them. "Sr, )" said the indignant Miss, bridling
up with an air of imposing majesty" You
don't hno,0 ,oho you're talking to-" This was
sur upon Jimmy's official independence 1t
was too much for HIM. "No,' he bawled,
81 don't know who you are Miss, and be Cor"
he added, swapping his ingers-"the devil bit
do carem The lesson it is hoped, will not be
lost upon young ladies who think the political
reputation of their papas invests them with a
right to monopolize what is intended for the
enjoyment of the public.
