This discharge is conclusive answer
and bar to all claims against the bankrupt
wherever they may be asserted. Nothing
defeats its force or effect unless within
two years from its date it is impeached for
fraud in the court granting it, and that
court annuls it by its decision.
There are, however, certain debts
deemed too sacred to be avoided even by
this discharge-such as liabilities of trus-
tees, executors, and other fiduciaries.
The exemption Of these obligations from
the influence of the discharge is briefly
declared in these words:
NO debt created by the frand or embezzle-
men. OF the bankrupt, or by his defalcation

GENERAL BUSINESS.
The orders which are generally re-
ceived by our merchants on Mondays
from the interior, we are glad to say,
show an increase and are an evidence
that work is again resumed with vigOr.
Our planters show a determination
worthy of good results, and witE&e ex-
perienoe of the past before them we are
satisfied they will be less dependent
hereafter than ever before. Corn will be
raised in abundance, and an effort will
be made to raise what meat is used upon
the plantation! That it can be done sue
cessfully there is no doubt. We have
had some experience in self-dependenee,
and proved beyond cavil that every
thing needed can be raised within our
selves. The corn market, though firm,
has been very quiet. Potatoes have be-
come a drug, and are very dull at our
quotations.
COTTON-The market opened dull
and heavy, and did not improve through
out the day. Few sales were reported.
Factors generally hold about 1c above
the offering figures, and were they even
to make concessions buyers would not
invest heavily. Eastern dispatches are
not favorable. Receipts for the day, 6Ia
bales shipments, none.

THE LOSS OF THE sAoRAMRNrO,

THE Loss OF THE SACRAMENTO.
Captain W.. Collins, Of the U. S. steamer
Sacramento, which was wrecked st sea in
June last, in the Bay Of Cocanada, reports to
the Navy Department under date Of Cocanada
Godayery District, Presidency of Madras,
August 9th, 1867, that on the 23d of June the
crew OF the Sacramento were comfortably
quartered on q hulk, anchored, and SUP.
piled with provisions Of a good quality.
The public funds, books and vouchers,
two twelve pound howitzers, two
anchors, the thermometers, con Siderable
clothing. and various other articles. have
been recovered. The ship which lies about
eighteen miles to the southwark of this port
having been under water for some time it is
scarcely probable that anything more can be
saved until October next, when the prevail
ing winds will be northeast, and directly op.
posite to the monsoon now blowing. With
this change am informed the water about
the wreck will become more shallow, smooth,
and clear. There is now high surf running
and the water is very turbid from the freshets
in the Godayery river.
As it is probable that much Of the machinery
and other contents of the vessel may be saved,
when this change takes place, unless q violent
southeast storm should occur in the meantim
l have directed Lieutenant Commander p. @.
johnson and Chief Eneineer VIM. b. Brooks
TO remain here for that purpose. The char
tered ship General Caulfield Is expected to ar
rive at this port hourly, and will probably be
ready In all respects TO sail within ten days,
when she will leave here with the officers and
crew OF the Sacramento for New York.
