MONEY AND BUSINESS.

Money is little easier for strictly prime short
paper The principal demand is for three to four
months paper, which cannot be negotiated to any
extent. Parties who have been accustomed TO
long loans and renewals are greatly puzzled with
these stringent times, when short prompt paper on
lycsn be done
Cotton has advanced slightly, although there is
not much activity, owing to the river getting be-
low fair navigation for large boats.
Grain and bag are scarce, the former so cents 20
81 per bushel the latter SIS per wagon load. Coal
25 to 40 cents. Vegetables are out of the ques-
ton.
The New York money market is reported to be
rather easier, but we presume it is only on call, as
the merchants still represent money as extremely
tight in that great commercial emporium.
Business has been rather quiet for several days
past Weather cold, and river only nayigable for
small boats.

AS there may be some risk in the beginning,

This is an encouraging fact, to those who feel
disposed to embark in sheep husbandry as
pursuit. because when they grow wool for the mills
! which make the finest cloths, they then wish the
finest wool; and those of the mountains, have the
opportunity of selecting from the flock in their
own State, which took the prize at the Worlds

The finest crop of lambs from the common stock
would of course be ho!f bloods the second three

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27.-The Senate is not in ses-
sion
HoUsE-Mr. Goodwin introduced bill provid-
ing for the working of steam dredge boat in the
harbor OF Oswego. Referred to the committee on
commerce.
Mr. Kerr offered resolution calling on the Pres
Ident to inform the House if not incompatible with
the public interest, when any correspondence with
the Minister of the United States at Madrid and
the Spanish Government or otherwise, occurs. 1t
Is insisted by the latter that the treaty of seventeen
hundred and ninety-fve, made between Spain and
the United States is not applicable to the Spanish
colonies are not entitled to tie benefit of the pro-
visions in the said treaty
Nc Bayley moved it be referred to the commit.
tee on foreign affairs
Mr. Kerr said he offered the resolution by the re-
quest of distinguished statesman who formerly
represented our country abroad. The Spanish
government denies that courts of Justice in Cuba
are open to our citizens for collection of their
debts, which the treaty referred to undertook to
guarantee. FL said it is subject of vast impor-
lance. Resolution passed.
The House went into committee on the French
spoliaton bill
Various amendments to said bill were offered and
debated by Messrs. Bayley, Orr Washbourne,
and Others, and rejected. The bill was then re-
ported to the House, and under the previous ques-
ton, passed-yeas 10, and nays 20.
On the question of agreeing to title, various
amendments thereto were offered, and points of
order raised
Motion made to adjourn, &c, and finally House
adjourned

The UNDERGROUND RAILROAD IN DANGER-A
bill was presented to the Illinois Legislature on
the 18th inst, to prevent the carrying of coored
people on the railroads of that State, which was
read twice and referred, and will probably pass the

State, by any railroad in the State, without duv
certified certificate Of freedom of such negro or
mulatto person being frs. presented to the conduc.
tor ofthe train, and copy of such certificate left
with the conductorOr agent" Section two provides
that any railroad company, or its conductor or
agent, which carries slave without any such GER
tiicate, shall be liable to the owner of such slave
or muatto, in twice the value of such slave to be
