The financial circular of Messrs. Sweeny, Rit-
tenhonse, FAINT 4 Co. for September 18th, 1855,
says:
In our local market money is more abundant,
on account of the large disbursements under re-
cent appropriations for the city and District,
amounting to 100000.
The Treasury has also commenced paying the
California war bonds, which have been audited
and allowed TO the amount of $6l5,000, leaving
1914, 900 to come in. The amount of these secu-
rites redeemed and cancelled up to last evening
was about 1896, 000

James II. Clay.

For graphic sketch of this gentleman, by the
mastery hand of Prentice, of the Louisville Jour
nal, see another column. We have omitted por-
ton of the article which is alluded to in the follow
ing paragraphs in the Louisville Journal of the
18th:
JAMES B. CLAY Correction--We regret the oc-
cuTence of an error in our article in the Journal
Of yesterday in relation to this man. We said that
he did not attend his fathers funeral. We had not
the slightest doubt of the truth Of ths for the in
formation was sent to us on Wednesday evening
through one of our assistants by a relative OF the
Clay family, respectable gentleman as lives in
Kentucky, and this gentleman suggested that j.
B. @. probably absented himself from the obse'
quies on account of resentment at not having been
invited to the death-bed.
4. But our informant was mistaken. James B. Clay
did attend the funeral and of the spirit and tenn
per manifested by him upon that solemn and aw-
full occasion we have nothing to say. For our own
sake, as much as for his, we are anxious to AVOID
doing him even the semblance of injustice.

I PRIEST KENNY A GAIN.-"We the People, says
that this somewhat notorious fallen Priest had a
hearing before tribunal of three Justices of the
Peace, at Martinsburg, Va, on Thursday, and was
re-committed on the charges of theft assault with
intent to kill, &c. The discovery of additional
evidence, it seems, duplicates him in the charge of
stealing two other Sacramento Chalices, and
Saeerdotal robes, which were given up as stolen
property by one Lotus, who refused to say how
they came into his possession and istherefere in
dicted as an accessory to the theft 1t appears to
be understood that Lotus received them directly
or indirectly from Rev. Mr. Kenny, but he refuses
to criminate the accused

THEY BEGIN TO SMELL BRMsroNE.--A prom
inent Democrat of Indiana, high in Office, writes
to bis friend in this city that "Indana has gone
to h--l;" and adds that Senator Bright who is now
in Illinois, informs him that that State is in the
same predicament.
Now both these States were claimed by the
Union, the other day, as sure for Buchanan, yet,
we opine that Lieut. Governor Willard and Sena-
tor Bright being both on the ground, win be
regarded as more reliable witnesses than the editor
of the Union, whose sphere of vision is limited by
the width Of Pennsylvania Avenue.
If then the sham Democracy cannot carry In
diana and Illinois, when both Fillmore and Free
mont have electoral tickets in tho field, what
Northern State can they carry? If they smell
birthstone already in their strongholds in the
North West how win they fare in New York,
Pennsylvania, and New Jersey?

That portion of the American party of New York
which bolted from the National Convention of Feb
ruary %, and afterwards, in connection with their
boiling brethren from New England, nominated
Fremont and Johnston for the Presidency and
Vice Presidency, recently held convention at
Syracuse on'the same day with the Republican
Convention.
These friends Of George Law made proposition
to the Republicans, that if the latter would nomi-
nate Law for Governor, they would abandon John
ston and support Dayton. But the Republicans
refused to give Law any higher Office than that of
member ofthe Central Committee. A large portion
of the Johnston Americans then bolted the whole
Republican nominations, and called convention
at Rochester on the 23d-the same day with the
American Convention. In their call for this con-
vention, they condemn in indignant language the
conduct of Law, Hammond Schaeffer, & Co., for
their attempt to betray the North Americans into
the hands of the Fremonters They will also issue
an Address to the people of the State.
The result of this affair is easily toreseen. The
North Americans, as they style themselves, will,
on the 23d, coalesce with the true Americans, and
thus add several thousands to the American vote of
the State. The Old-line Democrats in New York,
are already coming over in battalions and grand
divisions, and no earthly power can prevent the
electoral vote of New York from being cast for
Fillmore and Donelson by at least thirty thousand
majority.

The Vine CoNvENrIoN.-We postpone to-day
Congressional debate, foreign correspondence,
multitudinous communications, and nearly every
thing else, to appropriate our space to the pro-
ceedings and speeches in the recent Wing Con-
vention in Baltimore, which, from the great per-
sonal responsibility of its members and the.hport-
of its deliberations, deserves to have its aims
and sentiments placed in the fullest manner before
the country. Ifit should be objected to this as
sembly that it not entirely national or not ex-
clusively and purely Whig-that one of its orators
indeed repudiated for it the name of Old-line Wing
lit embodied so much of both of these qualities
as to entitle its recommendations to great consid
Grafton with oil Wings throughout the country, to
say nothing of the intrinsic title to their respect of
the eminent citizen whose nomination to the Pres
idency by another party they have approved and
ratified. This respectful consideration we shall
ourselves bestow on its recommendations with
every disposition to yield to them such favorable
construction and support as fidelity to principle
and due regard to the peculiar circumstances of
the country shall dictate to us as proper and pa
iotic.-National IntelIigencer.

SAN HoUsroN.-The old hero of San Jacinto,
Gen. Sam Houston, went down the Mississippi
last week, in the steamer 7. f. Twichen and
landed at the mouth of Red river en- route for
Texas. As the boat rounded to at the wharf, at
Memphis, large crowd of people called on the
war-worn veteran for his views upon the present
aspect of public affairs. He complied and gave
them rousing Fillmore and Union speech. The
old General is full of fire yet, and ardently devo-
ted to the. Union. He knows what it cost Texas
to get into the Union, and consequently he has
no notion of getting out of it.

Buying per acre. Selling per acre.

The demand for 1905 is better than for warrants
of any other size. This arises from the fact that
there is a small amount of land subject to private
tors, who are taking advantage Of the present low
prices Of warrants TO perfect their titles. The
closing up of the land offices in the West does
not preclude the pre-emptors from proving their
claims. The supply of 1905 is very large and they
must continue dull
For the reason stated in our last report We do
not, however, think that the market will fall much
below present rates, if at all and may advance or
decline figure.
The Pension Office, having got through with the
bulk of claims under the act of 1855, are now
moving slowly in disposing of suspended and ORR
ginal cases. The issue since the lst of August may
be estimated at half million acres per month,
against one million previously.

The Romanism of Col. FremOnt-Captair
Scammon, of the Army, made a Roman.
list by Fremont, &c.

TO The Editors of The ". Y. Express;
/ notice that the recent correspondence of Prof.
Wier, relative to Fremont's Catholicism, has con-
nected the name of Captain Scammon, of the Army,
with the presentation of the Protestant gift book
by Prof. w. to Fremont. This mention has brought
out the important facts proving Fremont to have
been Catholic. Capt Scammon, of Fremonts
service, and brother of Hon. John Y Scammon, of
Chicago, is an intimate friend and old companion
of Fremont. He was stationed in this city for sew
the most respectable of citizens. He used to speak
often of Col Fremont, while here, and his CONVEX
saton is fresh in the memory of his friends and as
sociates while here. Capt. Scammon is Roman
Catholic. He was formerly an Episcopalian,
think. In his references to Fremont he has often
told his friends here that he was concerted to
Catholicism by Lieut. Fremont himself! that
Fremont was a iegoted Cgthoiic, and presented
such arguments to his mind as induced him to en-
brace the same faith.
Here, then, is evidence of the most tangible and
positive kind, that Fremont is a Roman Catholic,
and not of the ordinary kind, either, for he was
even preaching it, and making converts to his ithl
Can Americans, who have ever belonged to the
American party, vote for such man If anybody
doubts this statement, let them apply to Captain
Scammon. He will not deny his conversation with
his esteemed friend in this city He is gentle
man OF too high sense of honor to do that though
it might reflect on Fremont's political prospects
Let them apply to Captain S., and he will confirm
every word write. His friends here who remem-
Der and state his conversations, are gentlemen
whose word will not be doubtful-gentlemen of
wide reputation and known integrity.
