Morphy and Harrwitz at Chess.

The Paris correspondent of the New York
Times thus speaks of the great chess contest be-
tween the American and Prussian champions:
"The great chess match between Germany
and America-between NJ. Harrwitz, of Pru-
STA. Mr. Paul Morpby, of the United States =
is now going on in this city, at the Cafe de la
Regeuce, in the Rue st. Honore, the head
quarters of the lovers of this scientific game.
The match is to be won by the gamer of the
first seven games. NJ. HarrwitZ gained the
first two games. Mr.. Morphy gained the three
next, the last of which was played yesterday
afternoon and evening. In the third and
fourth games Mr.. Morphy made some of tn
most brilliant and startling moves that had
ever been seen in the Cafe de la Regence and
so great was the enthusiasm that telegraph
dispatches were sent 10 the Rhine to Merry,
to the Duke of Brunswick, and other great
players. begging them to come and see the
wonder of the world. Notwithstanding we
are in the midst of the watering season, when
all the fashion is supposed at least to be out
of town. the Cafe de liz Regence is the scene
Of Il crowd, or father mob. of distinguished
men, and even women, of all nationalities
aud all tongues 1t is believed that MOrphy
will beat Harrwtz, though it is not by any
means sure. and in that case he becomes the
champion of the world. for no man in Europe
can heat HarrwltZ. HarwittZ is u years old.
Morpby but %. Morphy plays much faster
than Harrwitz and, in fact, faster than ny
adversary he has vet met in Europe, and the
holiness aud originality of his moves strike
the lookers-on with amaZement and admira-
ton"

From Utah and New Mexico

Among the army officers recently returned
from Utah is Capt. MARCY. He is guest at
the st. Nicholas Hotel. Capt. MARCY arrived
at Fort Leavenworth with the last mail party
from Salt Lake. He was accompanied by
Capt. GARDINER and several other officers up
on leave OF absence. The army was proceed
ing busily in the preparations for establishing
a permanent station in the valley. some dis
lance to the nOrthwestward of the lake. The
MormOns are quiet, but appear quite uncer-
tain of the relations likely hereafter to- sub
siSt between them and the Federal Govern
ment and its laws. So long civil and
criminal causes are determined by jury trials,
they cannot rely upon having things i'll their
way. There appears at present no legal rem
edy for the denominations practiced under their
system of popular Sovereignty but the re-
peal OF the law organizing the territory.
Capt. MARCY says the women appear to be
of a low order, whether as to intellect or per-
sonal beauty. He does not see one among
them who would be taken for lady at first
sight anywhere else.
Capt MARCY is the indefatigahle officer who
made the perilous winter march from Camp
Bridger TO Santa Fe for the purpose of pro-
curing supplies for the army in case of a
failure of the trains from the East in the
spring. He performed this march in the
depth of winter with 20 men, losing but one
man during the expedition. He descended
the Valley of Green River and crossed the
Rocky Mountains at the pass surveyed for a
railroad by Capt. GUNNIsON's party. He
thinks it entirely impracticable for that pnr-
pose. Capt. MARCY procured all necessary
supplies at Santa Fee, including a large drove
of sheep and cattle, and could have reached
the camp OF the main army on the 18th of
May, but was ordered by Gen. JOHNSON to re-
main entrenched for several weeks at favor
able point on the route, in order to guard his
men and animals against the possibility of at
tacks by the Indians.
The people of New Mexico seem cOntented
with their territorial condition; at least are
making no movements towards admission as
Il State The number of American lmni-
grants to this territory is yet very small. A
large portion of the natives continue sullenly
hostile to the American Government. This
is the same party of native New Mexicans
who used to vote for padre GALLEGos The
people are all Roman Catholics. The native
priests are in disgrace with the Pope, having
been accommodated. A considerable num-
Der of French priests have been sent to fill
their places. But the people adhere to their
native pastors, who continue to exercise their
functions without regard to their standing at
Rome.-N. 7. C0ur. & Eng, 4h.

BENEFICIAL RESULTS OF ADvERTIsING.-We
understand, through the agent of the Pensylva-
MIA railroad, that the receipts of that cOmpa-
ny at the agency in New York have increased
eighty-six per cent. since the company com
mcnced advertising in the New England pa
pers. in April, 1857. The advantage of ad-
vertising can never be appreciated in theory;
the practical results are the convincing argu-
ments in favor of the system. New York
owes her unparalleled success i'll a great mea-
sure to the liberality of her merchants, not
only in advertising, but in circulating New
York papers containing their advertisements
all over the country. When we consider the
fact that there is scarcely town in the Unit
ed States in which there are not more or less
New York papers taken, il is not TO be won
dered at that New York possesses such in
fuence, and we ought 60 have some charity
for the ignorance of foreigners when they in

States is in.- Boston Journal.

Gs- We find strange fact in existence in
Ne York. Country bank notes are actually
worth more than specie, and such notes are
boarded up, while silver is paid out. The
following from the U. s. Economist, will show
the the operation of this anomaly in New
York city:
A person has 1000 dollars wages to pay
on Saturday, instead of paying in country
bank notes, buys 1000 dollars in silver for $50
dollars bank money, and saves five dollars, at
the same time paying specie to his men. Such
state of the money market never occurred
before. 1t is obvious that continuance of
such state of things would drive country
bank notes out Of circulation and fill all the
channels with silver. But to do this, it will
be required that silver should increase fast
as the demands of returning activity in
trade
