TRADE has been very quiet during the past week, and very
few transactions have been made beyodd a retail business Sales

there is scarce any demand.
The Chilean brig Escape vas condemned as unseaworthy, and
sold at auction on the Sth, bringing the sum Of S1,120 as she
stood. This was considered a liberal figure at the sale, but since
then $1,000 has been offered for her and refused parties are

18th, and brought SI.540 cash for her hull. masts, chains,
anchors, SC Her stores and sails were sold previously at aye
ton, and realized S2.469. The ship viii probably be brokeYu up
for frewood. We have never seen a vessel return to portfn SC
ragged a condition. She is . years old, and would pr6bably

niue enquiry for whaIers' bills Holders Of bills ask par a 1 per

notice with pleasure that the bills now drawn by our principal
shlpchandlers are stamped with their business seal, which viii

suitable vessel: We have no doubt there are parties
ready to step in and supply the needed facilities, but
they don't want TO go and build a boat and then find
that the government have concluded to monopolize
the whole steam trade itself, or have given the job to
some one else. If any policy has been settled on by
the government in the matter of steamers, let the
public know what it is or if none has been or IS
to be devised, let US know that fact that we may
settle ourselves down to a ten years bondage with

PREVENTIVE OF FEVER AND AGUE.
Lieutenant Maury, in an article com.
municated to the Rural New Yorker,
maintains that the growing of sunhowers
around dwelling located near fever
and ague region, ncutralizcs the miasma
in which that disease originates. Hc
was led to experiment on the subject ia
consequence Of the dwelling of the Su.
perintendent of the Observatory al
Washington having been rendered un-
inhabitable five months in the year by
the mlasma that arises from the marshes
which nearly surround it. The rank
grass and weeds which cover these
marshes begin TO decay early in August
aud by them the miasma is evolved. Mr.
Maury's theory was that the poisonous
matter which was evolved must havo
been elaborated during the growth OF
the weeds, and set free in their decay.
On this supposition, by planting other
vegetable matter between the house and
the marshes, and bringing it into vigor-
w" S'o"'u oDoue tIic tllllc tuaJ tndI Vi
the marshes began to decay, the poison
ogs matter might be absorbed and again
elaborated into vegetable tissue, and so
purify the air.
In the spring of 1856, belt about
fortify-fvc feet broad, between the OBJ
scrvatory and the marshes, was prepar-
cd and planted with sunfowers, which
Lieut.. Maury rccollccted having seen
growing about the cabins in the West,
where it is said to be healthy to have
them. The flowers grew finely and the
result was a complete success although
the chills appeared at the White House
and other places the watchmen at the
Observatory, who were most exposed to
the night air, weathcrcd the summer
clear Of chills and fever. Previously
two or three relays Of these men would
be attacked during the season.
Lieut.. Maury says than an acre of
supfowcrs with absorb during their
growth many thousand gallons OF wartcr
more than air supplied by the raips.-
They are Of easy cultivation, and the
seeds, which are very valuable, find a
ready market at the drug stores Mr..
Maury suggcts that water lilies planted
in marshes would produce the same ci-
feet as sunfowcrs.

nay- The foreign coins are fast disar

noy- The foreign coins are fast disap-
pcaring. 1t is for the interest Of all
purchasers to refuse them, and thus help
get them out of the way. A half cent
loss on every ninepcncc, that is crcula-
ted, amounts to good deal Of money in
the cousc of year. The way to get
rid Of the whole batch OF fractional coins
is to refuse them, or take them at re-
Quoted reduced rates. The quantity of
Spanish coins in the country is estima-
ted at two and Il half millions of dollars.
The new cent coin it is said will be

million are already completed f; but will
not be given out until another million is

day which may be worth relating. An
extensive paper making firm at the
Eastward, had long been in search of IL
pure spring of water, Of sufficient vol
ume to supply the wants of the interior
Of their mill. After long search they
found the desired object upon the estate
Of IA neighboring farmer, and the shrewd-
est OF the firm was sent to negotiate its
purchase. The farmer, when approach
ed upon the subject, But on a knowing
look,,9t the same time remarking, Friend
| know you want that spring badly, and
| am going to take advantage of it,
|" Well, " said the man, "what is your
price %" shall put it on strong you

said the farmer, gradually preparing his
purchaser for the exhorbitant demand
he supposed he was about to make. 81
shall not take cent less than 5000 for
that spring, and you may have it or
leave It," Greatly to the astonishment
of the old gentleman, the paper dealer,
without the least haggling or even a wry
look, at once clinchcd the bargain and
paid the money. That spring Of water

sD- The recent Legislature of New
York, which has recently adjourned,
passed many acts relative to the city Of
New York, and we observe by the pa
pcrs, that the Mayor and some of the
other citizens have mind to resist some
of them, among which is the new po.
lice law the ground that they are
unconstitutional. BY this law the prop.
erty and control of the Police Depart.
ment is taken away from the present
authorities and placed in the hands oi
FIVE commissioners who are charged with
the whole Police arrangements for New
York, Brooklyn, aud Wcstcbestcr Ccun-
ty. The law was not submitted to the
people for their approval before it went
into effect, and the Mayor considered it
unconstitutional on that ground.
On Wednesday Of last week, at the
instigation of Mayor Wood, an injunc-
ton was served upon the new Metro
politan police commission, the Mayor
taking bond Of 100000 to abide the
issue. The Mayor then addressed the
police captains, telling them that the
new law was unconstitutional ,and charg-
ing them to obey none other than him
self. There was great excitement at
the City Hall all day. On the other
hand, the new commission has taken the
oath Of Office, organized itself, and pre-
pared to go boldly to the discharge OF
its duties.
