The New York Courier remarks that one Of
the singular features of the money market Of
the past SIX months has been the deprecated
value Of sound state loans bearing six per cent.
These securities, in previous years, when the
market was easy, bore large premium. Ma
ryland skies have in former years sold at 16 a
10 per cent. premium; Kentucky l0@12, and
other securities, equally substantial, at SOLO
per cent Whereas now, while money is worth
only SOY per cent, Virginia, Georgia, Ten
nessee, Missouri and Louisiana six per cent.
loans are quoted far below par. There is,
however marked Improvement now going on.

groes charged with riot, and with an assault
and battery on col. John H. Wheeler, at Wal
nut street wharf, on the occasion of his three
slaves being taken from him, was resumed
A dispatch says: "Among the witnesses ex-
amined was Jane Johnson, the slave woman of
col. Wheeler, Her appearance caused great
excitement. Her testimony was much the same
as her affidavit. She had desired her freedom,
and made such arrangements before leaving
home as to expect her friends to rescue her on
reaching New York. g ~azEzs mlo1
After her statement was concluded, the U.
States officers attempted to arrest her, but the
court instructed the court officers that she be-
ing witness, was to be defended with their
lives. She was then taken out of court be-
tween two long files Of police, placed in car
rage and driven off. Relays had been pre-
pared and were in waiting, and she was thus
soon beyond the reach of the officers A great
excitement prevailed about the court house for
some time.
