EXECUTION AT ANDREw.-Thc Nigi-
land Committee who made the descent upon
the Clinton county Jail and carried away
Barger and Carroll, who were awaiting their
last, at Q o'clock A, NJ Barger was impris-
oned some three years since tor the murder
of his wife, and has, by putting in plea of
insanity.so long deferred his execution. He
had but little 10 say, only that he thought 4
court of justice would clear him. The
crowd who had gathered to witness the ex
ecution was comparatively small, as the ex
eeution took place some five hours before
the appointed time. A large number of the
citizens of Msquoketa had started, but on
hearing that the awful deed had been per
formed tnrned back. Carroll, an lrishman,
who was in Jail for the murder Of a German
last fall, and has not yet had n legal hear
ing, was not executed rs reported. but is
confined in Jail at Andrew, with a select
party of the Vigilance Committee for his
jailors. He was informed in the morning
that he was TO be hung on the same time
with Barger. hut on further consideration by
the mob it was deemed proper that he should
have a fair trial.
Another person who was arrested in that
vicinity for stealing watch, and was con
fined in the Clinton Jail, was taken to the
place of execution and severely whipped,
and admonished to leave the State, and never
appear in that part again, as he valued his
life.
1t was the intention of the mob to take
another prisoner who had been imprisoned
for horse stealing. but he effected lis es
cape the night before and fed to parts un
known.
The whole proceeding of this Vigilance
Committee is most alarming outrage upon
the State government, and should be dealt
with as the enormity Of their crime deserve
These rufiians, backed, it is rumored by
more influential parties, are having every
thing in their own way and the proper au-
thorities should at once take active measures
to restore law and order.

Money in New York.

The following is from the financial
article in the last Evening Post:
The demand for money is very mod
crate, with an increasing abundance
on the market, SO that it is difficult to
loan at six per cent, on the best and
generally accepted securities. Not
withstanding the land speculations in
the West, the collections, We learn,ar
good, though farmers are specializing
little in lands. The bulk of the
Western traders pay promptly, but are
buying sparingly ofgoods.
Loans have been made freely the
last two or three days at six per cent,
on call, the securities being first class,
which does not at present inclrde rail
road securities generally. The dis
count brokers find the demand impro'
wing, with less Offering. First class
mercantile paper is easy at seven to
eight per cent; second class at eight
te nine, and unendorsed notes at eight
to ten.

racen was lying at the port Of Fort Madison

ordered by one Of the officers Of the boat to

some boxes. He was persued and brought
back, and was to receive punishment or hi
'emcrity, whereupon some of the citizens %
