FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

Congress has now been in session one month
and have done nothing or even indicated what
they intended doing in the debt and currency
matter, as far as we are able to Judge. If they
have done anything at all it is through their
want of action, thereby giving us all the feeling
that there will be nothing done at the present
session, but matters will be left as they now are
which is undoubtedly the best that can be done,
unless it might be to have them positively de-
clare that they intended doing nothing The
people, in the matter of circulating medium,
can very soon arrange matters amsng themselves
as soon they know that they are compelled to
do it themselves; but so long as they depend on
congress to arrange the currency, and congress
does nothing at all, but is continually agitating
the question and leaving the matter unsettled,
which is the cause of all the mischief and brings
us fluctuations in prices and uncertainties in
business, and all manner of calamitiss.
Money remains very close in the east as well
a in the west, and is temporarily excessively
tight, as it is near the time of the January state
ment with the National Banks, which tightness
will be relieved next week.
Money in Ottawa is very close, and none but
the best borrowers get accommodations.
Gold remains about the sams-1343a in New
York, and 1872 in Ottawa. Silver 100.

The Markets.

There is nothing of special interest to note in
the general produce market. Grain generally
holds its own, with upward tendency, except
new corn, which continues slightly to reeeds.
Hogs have taken a new turn upward, and the

GREY JACKET BITTERs.-These bitters. like the
name they bear, are a genuine product OF the
South, being manufactured here in New Orleans,
of pure medicinal spirits and home.raised South
ern herbs. Nor is this their sole claim to public
favor; they possess intrinsic merits, and are
equal, If not SUPERIOR to any bitters ever offered
in this market. Containing no deleterious ingre-
dents, they possess moderate stimulating power,
and as q tonic or appetizer are unsurpassed. To
females of delicate organization or suffering from
any of those irregularities peculiar to the sex. or
TO those suffering from debility or constitutional
lsDguor, the Grey Jacket Bitters can be safely
recommended. One browning proof Of the vir.
tues Of these bitters is the success which has
attended their manufacture. But little over three
years in operation, the mandatory, even with
improved and extended facilities. is kept con-
stanty busy in order to supply the demand.
Messrs. Barnett & Lion, both true Southern gen.
tlemen, are the sole manufacturers, at No. Is
New Leyee and IL Fulton street.

HORRIBLE CRIMEs.-A Negro Attempts TO Rae
ish has Step daughter and Kias the Witness Of his
Crime "A Richmond paper of the 25th ult. says
We stated in our issue of yesterday that detectives
Tyler and Murphy had arrested a negro man
named Albert Tyler, who was charged with the
horrible crime of attempting to rsyish his STEP
daughter, girl not more than twelve years Of
age, and that he bad administered poison to a
negro woman named Pauline Hubert, and killed
her. The circumstances connected with this affair
are az follows:
On Saturday night last. the accused was de.
tected by the deceased in the act of committing
most violent outrage upon the person Of Mary
Burley, bis step-dsughter, and she perceiying his
intentions threatened to inform on him, whereupon
the accused told her II she did he would have re-
venge. Day before yesterday some bread was
made up by the deceased in which it Is supposed
the poison was placed. The children Of the ae
cused we're told not TO eat any Of the bread by
their father. The deceased partook freely OF the
bread, snd in very short time was taken vio
enty i'll, and fingered until night before last when
she died. The dough and bread which had been
cooked were examined by 8 negro doctor and said
TO contain some poisonous articles.
