CRRsczsT OYYTcE, Mo- 10 f,auu street. j
Friday Evening, May H. 1850 |
The general money market moved along very
quietly to-day. The calls for discounts at one bank
were large, at others they were only moderate. |
On the street there was no great press, There
were sales of longdated paper at the rate Of o. 81
@i0 get. There were many diversified views ex-
pressed about the future Of the general money
market Some folks think that we shall have close
money market for the entire season, but there Is
nothing; no debate brought forward to Warrant
this high or dear suppositon. Money in all proba-
bility will be high and dear through the entire sea
son, and at the same time may be free Of access to
all DESTROYS of borrowing at some rate or another
The banks are dscountng freely; that is, compar-
ed to the income and though there has been some
talk In some circles that there would be suspen-
sons yet these predictions have not been realized
In fact, it has not been supposed that there would
be any serious nterruptionto rade and the talk OF
this and that party being short, hard up, borrow
ing at high rates of interest is idle all leather and
prunella; and while some folks prating of pro-
tests we can say, with the highest degree Of salts
faction, that in bank of our city there has not
been dollar in paper, or in exchange purchases
and dealings noted for non-payment for the past
in operation for some time that has not one dollar
of paper or bills receivable under protest. This
augurs well, and it is very plain that those antci-
pated troubles, protests and so on, are not to be
realized this season. In fact the notaries public
will atarye this season if they depend ON these no
tees, please to take notice. that so and SO did
not pay and that Mr. Holder looks to so and SO for
payment thereof. 1t affords US great satisfaction
| to remark that these missiyes are-few and far
between-not required at this time. Therefore,
croakers, and the Bears in general, can halt for
| this season. @

the word Of God, and his remarkable nautical ad-
venture. Noah had three sons, from whom have
sprung oil the people upon the face Of his globe.
We are told by sacred, and l think pretty fully,
too, BY profane historians, that Japhet is the faith
.er Of our race. We, then, are all children of that
man. We have, II is true, to 60 far back to get
at 1t. He is our original propositus. Shem is the
father of the migratory, wandering Asiatic family.
Ham, 1t Is said was the father OF the negroes.
This, l think II will be found, is shown by our
accredited historical books. Some have wondered
how it happened that Japhot, born Of the same
mother, son Of the same father, should be q gen.
tleman with features aud complexion like you and
myself; Shom, q yellow fellow, with high cheek
bones; and Ham a negro, with black face and
crisp, curled hair. This difficulty is surniounted
BY one class of ethnologists by attributing the
difference to climatic influences, in which | .hink
there is great FEASIBILITY. Be this as il may, the
relationship is the came. Japhet, it is agreed,
had large acquisitiveness, and hence his superior
ity; and it may be said, with equal truth, that his
children are not deficient in this capital virtue, for
such it is held to be 10 our times by us in this
model Republic. They also, it is said, have quick
and powerful faculties for numerals; and regard,
in theory as well ms practice, tue multiplication
table as the acme of human knowledge. But let
us look at this family imbroglio. We are the
cons of Japhet, and the negro is the son of Ham
we are the sons, respectively, of these two broth
ers; and consequently we, the sons of Japhet, are
cousins to CuHee, he being the son Of our uncle
Ham. l have often thought il the negro; as seems
fromthis account OF us to be. probable, had reallythat
relationship to US that we certainly had not treated
our cousin like o gentleman! Renewed laughter.
