AT eleven O'Clock, the escortand guards were
removed from the hall, and their places taken
By the pail bearers detailed By Col Tucker. a
number Of the personal friends of the deceased
also stood at the front Of the stage. Rev.
James Pratt, Rector Of Trinity Church, the
officiating Clergyman, then came forward, clad
in tho canonica1 robes, and pronounced In q
solemn manner the impressive and beautiful

stautially as follows: "Mcn aud brethren !:

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL,


SATURDAY EVENING, Dec. 9B 1851.
The Tcek has been characterized financially by
excessive dullness. Comparatively the demand
for money is very light and transactions generally
arc confined to DarzoW limits.
Considerable discussion was had in tlnancinf cir
ces this morning over the rcfy full synopsis which
OUT special dispatch had OF the financial scheme to
be presented to Congress In few days by the Com
nlittee on Wayb end Means. It is q measure OF
vast importance IN almost any view in which 1t
can be considered, and hence ehou1d attract very
general attention. An article on the subject win
be found on the second page Of this Issue. The at
tcntion OF the entire public Was absorbed in the
afternoon by the dispatches stating that the trail
tors, Mason and slidel]. had been given up, and
tinancial affairs were almost wholly neglected.
The market for New York exchange opened
stringent, but towards the close It wes s1iado
easier. Sellers we're glad to realize On II: though

There was good attendance on Change to-day;
but there was very little disposition among buy

yest. Tho universal impression seems to be,
that it will succeed, and all are acting upon
this idea. DR.. Butler is so well known among
us, not only as clergyman, but as the true
hearted chaplain Of the Irish Brigade, that
his name is a warrant Of success; and his CO.
adiutors cannot be excelled. The musical
