1t appears by the calendar of that eminent trb-
unsl the Marine Court, that the case of Jobson
VS.. Bennett SO far from beiug settled, as was re-
ported, is still in course of jealous prosecution on
the one side, ard Of industrious defense on the
other Indeed it is this very industry of the de-
tense, which constantly puts IN new ailldavits and
Lew grounds Of postponement and delay that alone
keeps alive the hope which prompted MS in our first
attempt 10 reconcile the distinguished parties. 1t
would seem that if The Herald were not really
anxious to find some means Of regsiniDg the now
sGenated affections of Jobson, and securing once
more his lively and yeraoious pen for the inssruc-
ti,n of its readers it would not thus SndeavOr from
day TO dsy TO prevent the matter from reaching
judicial decision. We trust thst this Is the true
view of the case; and We publicly adjure Jobson
not to be mplscable but to remember the tender
al touching relations of the past, end to hold hun
,elf opea TO any offers of iBdemnifcatiOn and
reconciliation that may be made to him. For our
part We should be proud not to ssy happy, if these
friendly little suggestions of ouis could De the
means Of restoring harmony in place of the present
dreadfnl discord Of Jobson vs. BsEnett.
But We must own that our an.apations Of such
a charming result are dashed with hue Of d0Cbt

4 few months ago, our whole country with most
other civilized nations, was D the agony Of co n
mereial "panc or revulson. Almost everyb) iy
wanted money, aud most were obliged somehow to
DO without it; the current rates of usury were ex-
orbitaIt, vet three per cent per month failed to
bring out the boarded coin from its hiding places.
The Banks steadily drawn upon for specie TIL
mos! Of them had practically none left, aud were
obliged to stop paying il out This was by very
NUN, rous clsss hailed as the downfall of the Bank
IN system. Hundreds confidently predicted that
the Banks would never resume, just rs The Herald
was accustomed TO assert in lS31 that Bsak paper
would continue to deprecate until it had become
8. worthless as the old Continental. The prophe-
cies Of ISL proved false; so did those of 1857.
The Banks soon placed themselves in position to
resume Soecie Payment aud did resume; but their
notes had been worth their face in specie before the
resumption Within the last year. We have seen notes
pay able and psid ON demand in specie selling
in market for two or three per cent. les' than
those Of other Bsuks which were in state of
suspeIsion This by no means proves that 1t is not
better that Banks should than that they should not
be able to pay specie; il proves only that the test
Of Specie Payment is not conclusive. One Bank
NAY be freely paying specie on all its obligations,
vet insolyent; while another does not pay specie,
YET is perfectly sound. Give us bank note that
will buy bank note Of similar denomination IN any
city Of the Unior ard We deem il practically good;
willie another that is redeemable IN specie al the
ISSUING counter. but worth only from ninety TO
nine,y-eight cents in the various quarters oil the
Union, is most unworthy of the name of Currency
When the Banks suspended, many supposed mat
their credit Was reuined and that the Pressure must
necessarily increase in severity; but the contrary
proved the fact. The Suspension was felt rs'her
asa measure Of relief and the Resumption, though
| general, has not proved relief measure. IL was
neh' 10 pay to the last dollar and resume AZ the
earliest moment; but if Bank Notes had not been
'Apressl! payable in coin, aud if each Bank had
been under obligation to redeem its notes i'll ex-
charge on sIy part Of the Union at par, the pres
=" sure would not have been half so severely felt,
aid the Resumption would have been At once need

our favor; so specie, Of course, flows in upon u,

that to any contracts or grants now IN existence

for the convey nce free of tells of the troops ard

bend that what msy seem to be saved BY this
bard bargain any company engaged IN the Transit

demand for the conveyance of the mails, except
the right Of the Postmaster General TO resort to

ether cases, might be Of very little effect in prac

The recent accounts from Mexico do not show
apy material alteration in the state OF anaIrs'
Juarez. with his ministers, was at AsPinwa,
having reached Panama from Manzanilla. They
were 10 take passage for Havana with the view oil
reaching Vera Cruz, which still held out for the
Constitutional Government. The troops oil vera
Cruz under La Lave lay at Jaaps, and those OF the
Government now m authority at Mexico near
Perote. Active hostilities appear to be suspended
but Echeagarsy, who commands on the other side
would appear not to have been idle. Col. Arago
who is stated TO be brother of the famous French
astronomer Of that name, but who has served for
Thirty years in the Mexican armies, has been
brought prisoner into Vera Cruz, charged with
being engaged in a negotiation with Echeagaray to
betray INTO his hands the strong Castle of Perote,
Of which lie has for se;eral years been Gov
ernor and which is the key on the
land side of the Province of Vera Cruz.
The Government of that State is extremely short
of means. The revenues OF the Custom House, by
which it has hitherto sustained itself, have been
anticipated for months to come, and ZulOaga'
GoyeInm. mt being triumphant throughout the int
rior, it does rat seem likely that the Liberals o
Vera Cruz will be able TO hold out much longer
II appears, however, that some movements are
being made from the south against the CentralGoy

among other excuses TO have set fire to the works
of the Peiriga mine, belonging to DR.. Burr, an
American and killed one at least o.. those employed
in working it.
However, the Government of ZaIosga seems to
have the control of all the interior and populOu'
States and to be about firmly established as any

Lecompton Junor-the English brat-hsd by
lie friends been pressed upon the House for deci
siye action Yesterday, the intmation being dis
tirCtly given that they would make or break this
time After the speeches Of MesNs. Howard and
Stephens, however, it was discovered that the vote
could lot be safely hazarded, and Dir. Stephens,
instead Of calling the Previous Question, moved
(4P. N.Y. that the House adjourn This motion
was carried by the close vote of l07 to l05-Gen.
Quitman and two or three more Fire. eaters, who
are determined not to swallow the jugge, voting to
adjourn in order to secure chance to define their
position. This looks as though the question might
not be decided for several days, time enough must
be taken for the quiet manipulation Of the imprac-
ticables. We guess the English dodge is not booked
TO psss-tbis week. Bot we shall see.
While we should regret to record the vote Of
Sovereignty, in favor Of this wretched juggle, we
say again that We shall chronicle its passage by the
confident that the People of Kansas will stamp it
under their feet; if they will not let them writhe
under the chariot-wheels Of the Lecompton Jug
gernsut. But for its tendency to postp )ne the so
much needed settlement of the Kansas controversy
we could zee it pass even with cOmplacency But
Congress owes to the Country the passage of act
which will enable the People Of Kansas not merely
TO reject detested Constitution, but to frame and
adopt good one. No halfmeasure, even though
less vicious than that of English, would now be
adequate or justifable.
