SMITH, O,oners Of the Steamboat Nor,calk, Us. The
Steam, Propeller James Roy.-This is an important
and interesting suit, and will occupy two or three
days in Its trial. The case arose IN the following
manner:-rhe Norwalk is known as an excursion"
steamer. On the 25th OF May, 1859, while she was
on her way to Bath, bound to the foot OF
Twenty-third street, East river, for passengers
from the loot OF Harrison street. North rlver
she collided with the steamtug James Roy and was
sunk. As the NorwalK was proceeding up the Ea st
river, near the middle Of the stream. IN the morn
Ing about hali-past ten O'Clock, ship was coming
course that would pass to the right OF the NorwalK
Astern OF the ship and tug, and still more to the
with barge In tow on a course which would have
carried the 1ng anu barge 70 the right Of the ship
greater rate OF speed than the ship and overhauling

POSITION as the seans cam shut the tug ~ and
barge out OF the view or the NOrwalk, which
proceeded on her course until the ship and
tug permitted her 10 have view OF the James Roy
and the barge Then 1t was found, the libellants
further state, by the Norwalk that the James Roy,
wlthoat warning, necessity, or without any means
OF knowledge on the part OF the NorwalK, had
changed her course and came into the OF the
Norwa!k. The latter 1t Is alleged, stopped her
wheels as possible, backed and oiew two
whistles indicating tnat the Norwalk could not go
to her own right but pass to the left. The result
was collision between the James Roy ana the Nor
walk the latter receiving such blow from the Roy
as sunk her Immediately The libel sets out that the
collision was the consequence OF the Roy changing
her course and OF not keeping q proper lookout

sequent loss for the time Sue was kept out uf use
and for the permanent injury done To her.

This was an action to compel defendants to convey

kerhof claimed that they had contracted to sell this
property through an agent who raised a deposit
and gave receipt therefor. Judge Gilbert held that
the authority OF the agent, unless he was specially
authorized to sell, was only TO procure customer

contain the details OF the sale and that while any
thing remained to be done, any details to be set.

Money.


There is an improved demand for
money to-day, aside from which and the
scarcity of exchange there are no ma
terial changes to notice in connection
with local monetary affairs. The banks
are discounting their customers paper
at the usual rates and do not anticipate
any stringency for some time. In the
open market the rates are Il to q per
cent per month.
Some few lots of exchange were
bought by the banks to-day from each
other at 81 rs premium per $1,000, but
par was the rate paid for commercial
bills over the counter. In selling checks
on New York lc premium was charged
and on New Orleans par was the rate in
selling and &c discount in buying. Sew
eral of the banks were shipping cur
rency to-day to the former point, one
alone RENTING some $4,000.
Nothing of consequence is transpiring
IN com. Dealers report small purchases
of gold at llll to lll3 and silver halves

only an occasional transaction in Ar
