LAUNCH OF THE "BROOKLYN."-The pro-
peller Brooklyn" was launched at two
o'clock Saturday afternoon from the ship
yard of the Laffrinier brothers, who have
built her for the Northern transportation
Company. a large number of people were
in attendance, and they witnessed one Of
the finest launches ever seen. She is a
beautiful craft, and when all was ready she
slid into her element with the grace of a
swan. She has the same dimensions as
have the other steamers owned by this
eompany-as large as possible for accom-
mediation in the locks of the Welland Canal.
We are assured by shipwrights that the
d" Brooklyn" is one of the very best boats OF
that line, and as seaworthy and staunch as
any craft on the lakes.
Captain Heating s~uperintended the oper-
atoms of the launch, and under his guild
ance and care every thing passed off as
smoothly as could be desired. She was
towed by the tug "Levi johnson" to the
mast derrick to ship her spar, thence to the
Main street bridge TO take on her rudder,
and finally to the Cuyahoga Furnace to
receive her boilers. She will be finished in
a short time and go into the spring trade.
Captain A. ". Rosman. formerly of the
" Maine" viii command the Brooklyn
and James Delany, late of the "City of
Boston" will be the engineer.

FINANCIAL & COMMERCIAL.

SATURDAY EVENING, March 10, 1856.
There continues to be noted a good steady
demand for money at the banks, and the
trade of the city being still on a very mod
crate scale, currency balances remain low,
and the market rules close. The offerings
of prime discount paper, by customers, are
generally met, but the regular banks are
refusing to favor any other class of borrow
ers. Private bankers and money lenders
find no difficulty in placing their capital at
liberal, and sometimes extreme rates, with
those who canno otherwise obtain accom-
modations.
Eastern Exchange is quite generally re-
ported in good demand, and bankers are
drawing IN excess Of receipts, which con-
tinue light, so that the market works closer.
Rates are steady at par buying and ITO
premium selling.
Gold opened weak in New York this
morning at a decline, but rallied later in
the day, and closed higher at IsIB@IsIs.
TIT recent decline in gold has been disas-
trOus to many interests, and particularly to
importers, and it is represented that a large
number of the weaker firms of the seaboard
cities are in a avery precarious condition, and
could not maintain themselves under a much
further decline in gold, and the additional
fall it would bring to imported eommodi-
ties. Some failures will doubtless occur as
it is, and in view of the still heavy impor-
%tations, especially in the Dry Goods line, to
be placed upon markets already glutted,
and with an uncommqaay meagre demand
1t would seem inevitable that many must
succumb. To limit this apprehended diff
Guilty TO as narrow a circle as possible. it is
probable an effort will be made to push up
the gold premium, and should the Treasury
keep cut of the market, a higher price for
gold will more than likely be reached. At
present the demand for customs duties is
not absorbing sufficient to prevent the bear
interest from maintaining the aseendaney.
Government securities continue steady,
except Five-twenties, which closed a frac-
ton off in New York to-day. The market
is reported quiet, business being chiefly
upon orders from investors.
In this market dealers report a good busi-
ness IN Seven-thirties, but very little doing
in gold bonds; coin is in very moderate Of
fering and light inquiry. Z. J. Farmer 4

Corn was in fair request to-day and steady.
Oats were held at an advance, but we could
