Where is the Money to Come Front

WuCIc As tnO MONEY W COHhc 'FRONT.'
On the first Monday of August last, the
entire circulation of all the banks in Ohio
was IS, lG3 ,687. Of this sum, the circula-
tion of the Bank of Crclevile amounted to
$393,O92. AS this bank has suspended, its
notes of course, must be deducted from the
circulation. This leaves S7,710, ,595, pro-
vided all the banks have out the same
amount they had at that time. The entire
amount ofspece in all the banks of the State,
on the first Monday of August last, was III. :
8l9 9260. To get this specie out, that amount
Of the notes of the banks must be present.
ed, So that the amount of what is regarded
rs money in circulation would not be in
creased if every dollar were drawn from the
vaults of the banks.
BY reference TO the message Of Gov Me
dill of last winter, we learn that the total
amount of taxes paid by the people Of Ohio
for 1858 was 81 ,90l 1866 We donot know
the precise amount Of the leycs for this
year, but they are larger than those of 1858.
Assuming the amount of taxation to be the
same, we see that the entire amount of our
money ,oill not pay the tareS by oUcr thirty
thousand d0l!urS. This is based on the esti.
mate that the banks have as much money in
circulation now as they had in August last.
This however, is not the case. The tight
ness Of the money market, and the panics
that have parvaded our business points, have
driven home large amount Of this circula-
tion,
The question is daily becoming serious
one. How are the people TO pay their taxes :?
If all our California gold was not shipped off
to Europa to pay the balance of trade against
US, we might hope to fall back on that, but
is not claimed that this gold is lef, in the
country, and in the hands Of the people. -
What are the people 10 do in this predica.
ment?
If all the currency is absorbed 10 pay The
taxes, will some one tell US what we are to
have, before this is disbursed, with which to
90 the ordinary business of the country ?--I
What effect will this state of affairs have
upon the sale of pork, and other classes of
produce ?-I 10. s. Jour.

The captain OF the " Julia MOultOn,' one
James Smith, has been tried, and found gull
ty of being engaged in the slave trade bv
the u S. court in New York. He sailed to
the coast of Africa, bought 66i slaves, took
them 10 Cuba, sold them burned his vessel.
and returned to New York with his cash
The affair leaked out through quarrel be-
tween him and his mate, about the division
of the plunder. The law makes the punish
ment of this offence death
The New York Tribune comments upon
this event as follows:
And here we have now the first conviction
under this law. which has been in force for
many years And why vas even this case
discovered? Because of squabble between
this convicted wretch and his mate for the
spoils-the sum at issue being 300, and
both parties. doubtless being here in this
city ready 10 engage in another slave expe-
dition
There are now in New York, wallowing in
wealth, living in sumptuous palaces up
town, and driving splendid equipagcs. men
called merchants" merchant princes" is a
term sometimes applied-who have for years,
uninterruptedly, been engaged in the internal
slave trade, and who, if they had their de-
6erts, according to law, would be swinging
on gallows as high as Haman. By chance,
the way is now opened one villain is final
ly convicted let the authorities do their du-
~, and score or a hundred may be found
equally guilty.

CAUGHT At LAsT.-In our telegraphic
columns will be found brief statement OF

Cincinnati Internal machine, which, BY
its explosion, caused the death of Allison
and wife, has been arrested in MuScatine,
Iowa, and is now on his way to Cincinnati
The Leader Is informed as follows:
Arrson, under the assumed name of Will
lison, has been engaged al Muscatine for two
months past, as clerk in drug store
Recently he addressed letter to o. P. Will
lard, of Cincinnati, making inquiries and
giving directions concerning a judgment in
his favor, which was in the hands of law
yer of that city. The first initial Of the
superscrption being indistinctly written.
the letter fell into the hands of G., F. Will
lard, who, learning the name of the writer,
placed the letter in the hands of the mayor.
The post mark revealed the locality of the
author, and the mayor with the advice of
the council, sent the chief of police and one
of his deputies TO Muscatine after the muir
derer.
Arriving there, the chief Immediately
found Arrison at tie drug store aforesaid and
recognizing him, took him into custody
He was immediately brought via Rock

ANOTHER TERRIBLE SHIPwREcK. The tele-
graph from New York announces that tie
ship New Era, with $50 passengers, mostly
emigrants, went ashore on yesterday morn
ing, near DIAL. The captain and 20 passen-
gers reached shore The vessel is fast break
ing up, and large number of the passengers
must be lost, though every effort was being
made to save them.
There We're 2l5 lives lost BY the wreck OF
the emigrant ship New Era near New York
This is awful to contemplate. One hundred
and thrty-live were saved from the wreck
yesterday, and twenty the day before, The
ship has gone to pieces.
What IA sad list of disasters we are called
upon to record. The Arctic, then the Yam
kee Blade, and now the New Era. These
with the railroad disasters, make a teraibIe
array for the year 1851.

The editor of the Cincinnati Gazette was

The editor of the Cincinnati Gazette was
shown the other day newly improved gun,
which he believes will evidently supersede
those now in use. 1t was invented by A. n.
Newton, of Richmond, Ia. and is called the
" breech- loading fire arm and was patented
last June. The inventor challenges the
world to produce gun that can be loaded
and fired with greater ease and rapidity. 1t
ty times minute. The charge is placed in
the gun at the breech, and, although perfect
to accomplish the purpose, the invention is
very simple, and i'll its simplicity lies one
of its chief merits. Bv the motion of IA
spring, small cover at the breech Of the gun
slides back leaving room to put in The
charge, and by a reverse motion the cover is
pushed back again, and the charge is forced
into the barrel. 1t is perfectly safe.
AssAssINATIoN.-Th betrayer Of the Gu
ban patriot, Lopez, was assassinated by some
unknown person, on the evening of the 18th
Oct, in Havana. His name is Jose Antonio
Santos CastaneGa, and was once saved from
teath by Lopez, but when appealed to by the
latter for shelter he basely betrayed him.
Lopez told him he would sooner or later
find the recompense of his villainy, and he
had been repeatedly warn d that he should
be suddenly cnt off The correspondent Of
the New York Times states that on The eve
ming of The 18th ult., Castanada was leaning
on billiard table, when pistol or musket
was discharged, two balls entering the back
of the head, near the lower plate of the
brain, at the spinal connection. There were
two or three hundred persons within the
room and surrounding it; but no one of
the vast crowd saw the deed done-none
were shocked thai it was done.
The funeral of the traitor was the occasion
Of violence, commoton and bloodshed.--
The crowd of people was large, and the ex-
element was intense. Yells, curses, and the
most obnoxious epilhets of the Spanish Ian
guage, accompanied with whistling, Kisses
and groans, filled the air along the last path
Of Castaneda. .....

tUHIo DRAFT DISHo HoNoRED.--lt is ann0unc
ed in the money column of the New York
Tribune, that draft of the Auditor of this
State on Mr.. A. P. Edgerton, the State agent
IN New York in favor of the Western Reserve
Bank was protested for non-payment on
Friday,-Mr. E. did not honor the draft, be-
cause he had no funds for that purpose. His
duties are simply those of discussing Off
Ger, and are confined principally 10 the pay
ment of the semi-annual interest on the State
debt-to the emission of the stocks of the
State as they may mature, and to purchase
at tiTed rate, such stocks of the State as
may be presented at his Office to the extent
of 100000 per month. The funds in all
cases are to be provided by the Treasurer Of
the State, and placed under the control OF
the agent for the above specific purposa, and
for the safe keeping of such funds, whAn in
his hands, the agent is required to give bonds
to the State in the sum of 1900, 900. If the
Treasurer fails or neglecs to supply funds in
season, the agent has power to 90 into the
market and raise money Oh the credit of the
State to make good any deficiency which
may arise as in the present case.
The Tribune surmlses that owing to the
stringency in the money market and the
scarcity of exchange in Ohio, the proba bilty
is that the treasurer has been temporarilr
unable to place the funds in New York, at
the moment to meet this draft, but there can
be no doubt but that he will do so immedi-
aely. The parties holding the draft fee!
