New YORK MONEY MARKET.-The Herald
Of Monday says, the past week has, on the
whole, been one of improvement. The closing
quotations for stocks yesterday show an ad.
vance on those Of the week previous, and the
amount Of business transacted was much larger
than we have noticed for long time. Holders
of Stocks had good opportunities for realising,
and we should judge that large lots had changed
hands. The bank statement for the past week
looks more favorable, and it will undoubtedly
create better feeling among spectators The
news by the Atlantic is not ola very satisfactory
character, and may possibly anr ul the good
effects Of the bank report. The decline in con.
soils and cotton with the advance in breadstuffs
cannot be considered very encouraging. The
political accounts are not calculated to give
hope of a speedy termination Of hostilites.
From the effect of The Austrian movement on
the London Stock Exchange, we should Judge
that it was looked upon in all unfavorable ght.
In London the rate of interest ruled at five per
cent. The bank of England returns show in
increase in the bullion department compared
with the report for the week previous. There
had been decrease of notes in circulation Of
E2ll ,205; an increase in public deposits of
fl650,5l5; aud in the stock Of bullion in both
aoparimon.s- Sc cle4, ,45t.- rhts Is the only
favorable feature in the financial adyices from

What one Man can do OF Florida
: - -. GniI. 49, -. .

We have often heardit remarked that Flori-
da is the "best poor mans country in the
world, and facts would seem to support the
proposition. -
Every man who settles place with ,ordina.
ry industry, can, with his own labor, earn u
handsome living, and with proper economy,
clay by enough for rainy day"
Oae instance among, we venture to say,
hundreds of others, in our State, has come to
our knowledge which deserves notice, and we
publish for the information of those whoSmay
wish to seek Il new home, within. our more ge-
nial cline and more yielding soil.
Mr.. Bartolo Masters. Jr., of this county, re
siding near Moccasn Branch, Is niles from
this city, has given US q statement Of his crop
made the past season, without assistance, and
solely by his own labor. We put it down
with the value, as follows:- -
$50 gallons syrup at soc. per GAL. 1925
4 barrels sugar, 500 lbs, at &c. -. 4S
5000 canes, at &c.. 60
$3.50
This is the produce Of one acre of cane. In
addition to this, he raised $50 bushels of corn,
and 200 bushels Of sweet potatoes, the value
of which We put down at $3.50 more making
in round numbers the sum of $500 as the re.
suit Of lis seasons labor to say nothing Of the
numberless comforts arising out ofgpoultry,
pigs and milk, &C., which are unconsidcred
trfes.
The land upon which this crop was raised,
is high pine land, cow.penned," and the mill
with which the cane was ground, is common
wooden one of rude manufacture. With such
facts before them, let no one complain of the
hardness Of times. a little industry, energy,
and perseverance, will make every man rich if
he chooses to }be.
We would remark that it would seem our
pine lands cowpenned, are better suited to the
culture and growth of sugar cane than any
other quantity of SOIL We judge SO from the
fact that the yield per acre is greater in pro-
portion. than that of the best hammock lands.

HAVANA, Wednesday, Aug. Z, 1855.
Although am happy to inform you that have
not heard within the past ten or twelve days Of
any further landings of Africans, yet know that
several cargoes are shortly expected here from
the coast Of Africa, and which there is too mach
reason to fear will be safely disembarked and
doomed to Cuban slavery, more cruel and horrible
perhaps than any in other portions OF the globe

ers that with all the boosted watchuness and slac

compels, the vessel that has conveyed the victims
of this shameless lust for ucre from the shores of
Africa to Cuba is instantly set fire TO and utterly
destroyed.
Such, then, being the case, the cause for sur
prise rather is that any savers at all are captured
than that only limited number OF them meet that
fate. Then again it must not be forgotten that
once landed upon this Island, the Shareholder ana

have stolen the Africans from their native shores
aud readily lends his aid 10 conceal them. The
houses concerned in the savetra IN this city are
MS well known as are the importers OF drygo0ds In

with which they mingle with the other merchants
upon the public wharf one would suppose the
