Dsyrdrity. seated in the office Of one
of our Aldermen on Saturday last, civil suit
fur the recovery Of two dollars borrowed money
came up for trial. The defendant denied having
received the money from complainant, but wien
the ques ion was put to him in aplain, straight-
forward manner his countenance gave tue lie,
moro than would n hundred oaths, to his posi-;
tive but negative answer. There was single
witness present--one of the unwilling, non-com-
initial pr.varieating, quibbling, detestable kind,
who, though hc knew all about the case, would
admit nothing; who 'spOkeund yet said nothing."
Judgment was rendered against the complainant
in accordance with tho evidence and the defen-
dan,'s denial, while all present were more than
convinced that the complainant was in the
right.

ematca and scientifeal instruments, reaching ann,
ally in value to about the same amount
In 1855 the duties collected at our custom-houses
on the S7,77s,l32-the value from Switzerland that
amounted to at least S2,OOOOOO and in 1856
upwards of $4,000, 900 was added to our revenues
from the same II is, therefore, earnestly to
be desired, not only by the mercantile interests of
country a matter Of dollars and cents, but by
every interest and every class of our felowcizens,
who must naturally feel more than an ordinary in
teres in the industrial and general prosperity of our
transatlantic sister republic that France would so
adapt her transitage regulations and tariffs of tolls
to the exigences of her inland neighbor as to make
it the interest as well as the choice of Switzerland to
regard French territory the natural portage Of her
annually y-ncreasing commerce. Under more liberal
arrangement the indirect trade between the United
States and Switzerland, through the port OF Havre,
would in FIVE years increase nearly so per cent.
The Washington union., 1857-05-14

Among all the countries which we have named as
sharing in the indirect trade Of the United States
there is whose industrial progress is more alb
solutely at the mercy Of third governments than that
of our sister republic, the Swiss confederation With
out single port which could give her an outlet to
markets. she must seek the ocean over the terri
tory of some neighborng power Her own frontier
is cut off into six departments each of which there
is a customhouse for the verfcaton of exports and
the collection of import duties Through one or
other of these custom-houses all merchandise des-
tined for consumption transit must pass but the
moment Swiss exports the frontiers of Swizer-
land they enter upon foreign territory become sub
iect to foreign taxation and frequently to the cupa
BILE negligence idle curiosity Of foreign officials
In illustration of this we have seen it officially
stated that an invoice Of accordeons passing over
French territory much injured--owing, it was
believed to the ms-directed musical genius of the
French inland cuson-house olicials--that the con-
signee in New York was obliged to expend some
hundreds of dollars in repairs before they could be
offered in market
In reference to this vexatious drawback upon
Swiss commerce with the United States the State
part l, page AL, very properly suggests that if
Swiss manufacturers could have their goods destined
for the United States finally examined and sealed
piombf) at the first French frontier customhouse-
then to pass ON to their final destination under the
protection of that SEAL unopened and consequently
exempt from the reexaminaton and repaclSng which
they undergo at each post-it is believed that the
trade with the United States would all pass through
Havre, instead of seeking is the case at present
the more crcuitous and expensive routes ria Liver
pool and other ports Such change III the French
transit regulations would result in an annual aug
mentaton in the general exchanges between the
United States and Switzerland"
The United States has important interest in this
matter We send annually to Switzerland our raw
cotton, (about 10000 900 pounds,) tobacco, tabout
100000 pounds) dye-stuffs, grains, -four tallow.

The number Of American vessels at this port during
the past quarter has been unusually small but the i'm
ports and exports from and TO the United States compare
fayoabiy with those of preceding quarters The Hayten

Trade between this port and the United States Is in
prosperous state large quantity of American provis

tons the people entirely dependent for their daily
food Agriculture here almost entirely neglected
and soil which has probably not its equal in the world

of the country the provisions raised here have than
tripled their value
'he political state of the country is very quiet On
the demand Of the general of France and England
Port Prince, the Emperor has granted the
inhabitants of the eastern Dominican part of the

consequence orders Immediately given TO cease all

Affairs in his despatch of the 10Th March, has, besides
announced that the Emperor permits to the inhabitants of
the eastern part to travel freely and to transact all kinds
Of business, either civil commercial within the extent

will result from it to the commerce of this port
