BANK Norris CANCELLED AND SrocKs SrRRES-
pERED.--we have caused inquiries TO be made
OF the Office of tho Bank Superintendent at Al
bany as to the amount Of circulating notes re-
Gently cancelled in that department aud of
stocks surrendered. The reply Of that Official IA,
that from the first Of September to the 18th OF
October inclusive, the day on which the banks
suspended specie payment, the amount Of notes
of state banks returned and cancelled was
5.32l loS. The stocks surrendered ia exchange
for these bank notes amounted to 1856, 9j7,
and the bonds and mortgages to 1892 262-the
total amount of securities thus surrendered being
"a. 3s92l9. We suppose that The apparent dis
crepancy between the amount Of notes cancelled
md the amount Of securities surrendered may
arise from the fact that the stocks are not cal
culatod al their nominal valT-at which they
v,re depositd-but at thor market value at
he time Of surrender Since the suspension OF
pecn payments there has been very little de.
land for The SURF gader q securities, probably
nvt over one or two hundred thousand dollars.

RAssss AND THE ADnSIsTRATloN.-The Kan
sas s4uayLle has at last been reduced to two
technicalties or distractions First, the power
of Governor Walker in canvassing the votes
for the Legislature to reject that barefaced
Oxford swindle of l,G2S names which were not
votes; and secondly, the power of the Kansas
pro-slayery Constitutional Convention to send
up their State constitution to Congress without
referring it to vote of the people. Upon the
first proposition, the act of Governor Walker,
whatever may be done with him, is beyond
remedy. That Oxford fraud having been cast
out, the free State party have the Territorial
Legislature, and they will use it to establish
their own policy-we may rest assured Of that.
We dare say, too, that the administration will
not have either Walker or Stanton skinned
alive for casting out that most outrageous
Oxford trick of the secessionist border ruff
fans. We believe, in short that neither Walker
nor Stanton will be recalled or superseded by
the Cabinet council to-day.
With regard to the last desperate trick of the
fire-eaters, that Of sending up to Congress
pro-slavery State constitution for Kansas, with
out referring it to the people, we are quite sure
that, should the trick be tried, it will fail. We
expect the trick to be tried, ana we are conf
dent that any such State constitution for Kan
sas, coming before Congress for ratification, in
advance of ratification by the people of
Kansas, will be sent back again to Kansas.
That is all, Substantially, the Kansas question
is settled She is certain to come into the
Union as a free State That fact is fixed be-
yond all doubt by the late Territorial elections,
and neither the conduct of Governor Walker
nor the trick of lodging the Kansas people
with pro-slavery constitution will help the
cause of the irc-caters They have lost the
prize, and they must surrender it. No help for
it now Kansas practically, is used up for her
destiny is determined.

country, until 1850; for, considering the mate
.ia,s Of the prescn. Congress and the chances
for The next we can hardly expect the Congress
rionsl remedies for this deep seated resulsion
10 be perfected before the next Presidential
campaign.
Such are the political tendencies Of this
financial breakdown Of 1857. Whether the
result will be a political revulsion, sweep
ing the country like tornado, as in
1910, or n steady adhesion Of the people to
the policy of Mr.. Buchanan's administration,
viii depend upon that policy itself Hence the
wisdom Of caution and deliberation. The fnan-
cial and commercial disorders of twenty years
accumulation are not to be remcdicd in a day
nor in year. But for all this, the people will
expect much of the government, and the gov
ernment has the power and can command the
ways and means for aifording much of positive
and permanent relief to all the business embar-
easements of the country. II was the policy of
Martin Van Buren, to separate and isolate the
interests of the government from the interests
Of the people, under the heavy shinplaster pres
sure Of 1887. Let Mr.. Buchanan beware of fol-
lowing too closely his example, and let him
take a new departure, financially and CONNER
cially, and the prestige of his administration
may be crowned with victory in 1860. Other
wise the campaign Of 1860 may be another car
nival like that of 1870. Such are the signs of
the times.

PUBLIC .AMusEMENTs-ErFEcrs or THE PANIC.
Our city theatres have passed through
month of the severest financial pressure, and
the closing Of at least two houses was believed
to be foregone conclusion. At the last Opera
season the receipts on one or two nights touched
very low figures, when the managers stopped
proceedings. Burton's and the Broadway
theatre have had attractions which, in flush
times would have packed those houses on every
night Miss Cushman has played a surprisingly
good engagement under the circumstances, and
the ballet at the Broadway has been we'll patro-
nised but such is the expense attendant upon
such attractions that they cannot be profitable
TO the manager. IL we look at the other thea
tres, we shall find wallack's and Laura Keene's
almost empty during two weeks The expenses
were reduced as far as possible, and all the
comedians put on serious short allowances Of
salary. The blow was the heavier, because the
month Of October is generally the best season
for the theatres, and the managers rely upon a
fall surplus to carry them over the dry times
in mid winter. They cannot, like the dry goods
men, "close OUT their stock Of actors, actresses
dresses, scenery and properties Eat great re-
duction below the cost of Importation" because
not values in any sense Of tho term. The public
here does not look upon the drama as an art to
be cultivated and sustained; but the theatre il
made a lounging place TO pass an idle hour, or
to "get in out Of the rain" NJ Jules Janin
said when he went to the Fraucais.
When the public has good deal of money II
showers gold on the theatres. When the public
is obliged TO wear its old clothes, the theatres
get nothing
Within the past week however, we are glad
to say that things look little better Niblo
has put on q little more steam, and has very
good audiences. The Thalberg and Vieuxtcmps
concert on Friday drew n crowded audicnce-a
hopeful sign for the Opera season, which be-
gins this evening The business has also Inn
proved little at Laura Kcene's and Wallack's,
while everybody has Of course seen Miss Cush-
mans Lady Macbeth. The ballet at the Broad
way closes with this week, and will doubtless
draw better than ever. At the Bowery and the
other places OF amusement on the east side Of
the city we hear that the nightly attendance
increases. The German theatres and the
colored Native American Opera receive, com
paratively, more patronage thon any regular
theatre. They are cheap amusements for the
people, and patronized by the people. We
have In New York rather too many first chsss
theatres, 40 called, and the business has been
like everything else--somcwbx ovrdne.
There will be this evening no less than eleven
theatres, Of all grades, open in this city-from
