NEW YORK, Nov II, 1855.
The case Of Judge Stuart has finally been brought
to a close, and verdict Of I" not guilty rendered
Probably this has been one Of the most baretaced
attempts to injnre an innocent man on record
Judge Stuart's course in the Poole case has had
more to do with this trial than many are aware
While many in authority were for letting the mat
ter pass off quietly Judge Stuart was active in
sitting the affair, and having the guilty parties
rested And, as some Of those arrested, were
somewhat noted politicians, 1t is not to be wonder
ed at that they should find friends, who would try
to shield them, and at the same time do all they
could to injure the Judge. But the result of this
trial Is glorious vndication OF his character, Of
which be may well feel proud.
1t will be recollected that the government gave
the Express company until the 20th of November
to make inquiries and ascertain, IL possible, what
had become of the $4,000, lost on It's way from
Dubuque to this CITY, That time having expired
yesterday, the fun amount was paid over to the
government through the hands Of Mr.. Cisco, the
assistant treasurer here. As the gold has been
missing since the nth Of September it is not likely
anything win ever be heard of 1t.
Burglaries appear to be the order of the day just
now, and hardly night passes without bringing
to light some. new transaction in this line On
Monday night the store Of Messrs. Gage, Sloane
& Dater, in Reade street. was robbed of silk goods
to the amount Of $4,000 No clue to the robbers
has yet been found. When it is known that this
store is within stones throw Of Broadway and
the Park, it is certainly somewhat singular, to say
the least that such quantities Of goods should be
carried off without the burglars being detected.
A story is going the rounds that Mr.. Raymond,
of the Times has sold ont his right in that paper.
Such Is not the fact; but Mr.. Hooper retired from
the concern some time since, although his name
still appears as one Of the proprietors. Having
sunk as much money in this paper as he could con-
it. He loses about $4,000, believe, in the con-
Germ.

The Star ought to be more careful about making
charges:
"a newspaper called the Evening Star, pub
lished in the city of Washington in It's edition of
yesterday, reiterates the charge that have been
engaged in recruiting or retaining men for the
British army, and connects with 1t the. assertion
that had written a despatch to Her Majesty's
government in regard to the ship Maury Wheth-
of that paper or by one who pandefs to it, I beg
to the public that both his allegations are
simply and absolutely untrue.

In our money market there is better feeling
and discounts are obtained without trouble. Stocks
have improved for the past week until yesterday,
when slight reaction in the fancies took place
Your telegraph operator said, "Stocks are lower"
and quotes Virginia stocks at 95 Now, this is
higher, with one exception 15th inst, than that
stock has been sold at for several weeks. merely
mention this to show that the telegraph is not to
be relied upon always.
