COMMERCIAL FROM OUR COMMERCIAL CORRESPONDENT NEW YORK, Oct. 17, 1854. Almost all business has during the week been greatly offeeted by the awful catastrophe of the Arctic. No cireumstance hardly ever occurred which so generally elicited the sympathies of the commercial world as that sad event. At the Merchants' Exchange and at the Corn Exchange business was suspended for the day, and the week has been a broken one. The pecaniary loss connected with the Aretie is not so great here as was apprehended; it may reach $1,000,000, ship and cargo, of which one-half is held abroad. The item is, however, an important one when added to the losses previously sustained during the past year on shipping. This interest for the moment is exceedingly depressed, through the reaction of causes which for several years have combined to confer great prosperity upon that interest. The Mexican war caused a demand for vessels on the part of the government, and that demand has been sustained in various ways up to the present time. The famine of 1847 put into requisition all the mercantile navy of the world, and ships-of-war were even required to transport food. The California fever continued the demand for vessels, improved by the Australian excitement of last year, when also the recurring short crops of Europe again gave extensive employment to mercantile tonnage. In all these sΓ©ven years the building of ships has not ceased largely to increase, until the tonaage now owned in the Union is 4,407,006, against 3,527,115 in 1850 an increase of nearly one million tons, or 30 per cent., in three years. With such means of transportation the demand has fallen off. The trade to California and Australia is next to nothing. The exports of produce to Europe, which were last year so active, are now nearly ceased, while the cotton is not yet active: and the European war, which it was hoped would cause a demand for the neutral bottoms of the United States, has ceased to have any influence. It is not, therefore, a matter of surprise that freights are very low and the value of shipping diminished. The new banks of the city, which have been started recently in such profusion, have also undergone reaction, and three of them have gone down during the week. The difficulty with the concerns was, that they were forced into existence by the payment of the capitals in stock notes, which have not been paid up, and the banks have struggled for existence by attempting to live on credit. Opposed to this were three difficulties: 1st, no notes could be issued without actual security being deposited with the comptroller; 2d. a weekly publication of the condition was required. These are legal regulations. The old banks established a new one of their own in the clearing house, where every bank is required to settle its balances in cash every day. This was fatal; no needy directors could get anything out of the bank for longer than a day, because whatever he got would certainly appear next morning at the clearing house against the institution. The clearing house was for a long time very indulgent, by which is meant that the strong banks were not disposed to press the weak ones. This course, however, soon became impossible, and is now no longer tolerated. The Knickere bocker, the Suffolk, and the Eighth Avenue, have been excluded, and have failed. Some of the officers of the "up town" banks displayed a good deal of feeling, and resorted to queer tricks to affect the old banks-as thus : the city funds a are kept in the Mechanics' Bank, and are usually checked out by the proper officer in favor of the city creditor. On Wednesday there were some two hundred hands to be paid small sums, and an unseen influence induced the drawing of the checks "to order," which required each to endorse his e check. This, to many, was an impossible performance, and it was suggested to them that it was only a trick of the bank e to avoid payment; symptoms of a row became manifest, an r immense crowd gathered round the bank It was then run mored that there was a "run on the Mechanics' Bank that e the bank had "stopped." The activity of the bank officers, e however, soon got over the difficulty, and the plan fell through e The returns of the banks to-day are as follows e New York City Banks

Banks and Banking Some little stir was made in commercial circles yesterday, by the announcement of the intention on the part of a number of our banking houses to refuse all bills on Indiana Free Banks. The same decision has been agreed upon by the management of the railroads centering in this city. The reasons assigned by the latter are the difficulties and delays incident to the redemption of such bills, increased by the time allowed in the charters of these institutions for such redemption, and, further, the difficulty in ascertaining the standing of many of the more obscure and distant banks. The bills of Indiana State Bank are taken as before. Several of our banking houses, among others Col. Swift's still recieve the larger share of Indiana free bank money, in m derate sums, and from customers. With regard to some of the others, their partiality for wildcats of theit own family probably renders them hard hearted towards other iss es than those which have the easiest accommodation about them. Intelligence was this morning received of the suspension of the following N. Y. City banks:-The 8th Avenue, Suffolk and Knickerbocker, The Kentucky Trust Co. and Newport Safety Fund of Covington, Ky., have also fuiled.-Chi. Jour.

The following Indiana stock banks have made arrangements in New York for the redemption of their paper at is per cent. discount: Public Stock Bank, Newport; State Stock Sex curity Bank, Newport; Bank of Perryville, Perryville; Bank of Bioomington, Bloomington; Bank of Albion, Albion; Plymouth Bank, Plynic uth; Bank of Bridgeport, Bridgeport; Orange Bank, Poseyville; Diovers' Bank, Rome; Merchants' Bank, Springlield; Bank of Auburn, Auburn; New York and Virginia State Stock Bank, Evansville.

The New York Times of Friday says: There is likely soon to come off on the market a considerable suin of New York State stocks, from the suspensiou or Lquidation of a number of the small banks in this city. In addition to the Eighth Avenue and Knickerbocker, ultendy referred to, the Sulfolk Bank has virtually suspended operations. The circulating notes are going in for red: mption, and will soon be wholly returned to the Bank Department. What becomes of the few bone fide depositors in these concerns, such, we mean, as are not so fortunate us to owe the bank with which they deal, the public have little means of knowing. The process of decimating the uncalled for number of Iree banks in the city by the Clearing- House, has evidently begun in earnest, and the work will not probably cease until ten or twelve are compelled to liquidate for want of a legitimate paying business, or the more immportant want of public favor. Since the summer of 1851, three years ago, the city onks of New York have been doubled in number-58 now, instead of 29 then. STEM

didates, and who will come right side up out the Chaos, CEDIPUS himself could not guess. The oldest and shrewdest campaiguers are at fault, as well they may be, after the late astounding news from Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana. The verdict in the case of Dr. Graham seems to give universal satisfaction. His counsel have given notice of a bill of exceptions, but if wise, they will not move for a new trial. Another jury might be less lenient. The maximium of punishment under the verdict, is seven years imprisonment, and the general opinion seems to be, that he should be sentenced for the full term. Iager, found guilty of manslaughter in the third degree, has been condemned to the State Prison for three years. His offence was the stabbing to death of a man named Moran, during a drunken quarrel. Yesterday another fatal knife case was concluded in the court of Oyer and Terminer. The prisoner, Charles Graham, was found guilty in the same degree as Iager, and received the same sentence. It would seem, however, the spirit which is rife among the rowdies of this city, has not been checked by the late examples. A deliberate homicide was committed in Brome Street last night by an unknown man, who leaped upon the platform of a Harlaem car and knocked the brakeman off. The unfortunate man, whose name was Rickert, died fifteen minutes afterwards in consequence of the injuries he received by the fall. A rowdy who had been en gaged in a dispute with Rickerts on Wednesday last, is suspected to be the guilty party, but he has not yet been arrested. Some of the small Banks of this city are shaking in the wind. The Knickerbocker, Suffold, Eighth Avenue and Bank of the Union, have suspended operations, and their circulation is going in for redemption. It is scarely possible that bill-holders should sustain any loss by the failure of these concerns, whatever may be the fate of the depositors. The fact is, we have too many banks of the small fry class. They do anything but a legitimate business, and the sooner they are wound up and their notes redeemed from the proceeds of their stock in the hands of the comptroller, the better. The Knickerbocker Savings Bank also has failed. The weather here is warm enough for August, and the furs, merinos, and other winter goods, behind the plate-glass windows of the fashionable stores in Broadway, look singularly unseasonable. The cholera, which has nearly ceased its ravages on terra firma, is making frightful havoc at sea. On board thΓ© Harvest Queen, from Liverpool, and the Piscatore, from Havre, both arrived yesterday, the total number of deaths on the voyage was one hundred and twentyfive. Seventy-five dead bodies were thrown overboard from the former and fifty from the latter. Business continues to be dull, and.retrenchment of expenses seems to be the order of the day among our merchants; still there are no heavy failures, and although we shall probably have a "tight" time this fall and next winter, there is a fair prospect of a renewal of trade in the spring. The Clearing house which was established last spring by the different banks, has been the cause of the suspension of the banks reported above. If a bank fails to settle up its account daily, it is suspended from the paivileges of the House, which causes a general run upon it, which few banks can go through safely. ST. CYR.

teen minutes afterwards, in consequence of the injuries he received by the fall. A rowdy who had been engaged in a dispute with Rickert, on Wednesday last, is suspected to be the guilty party, but he has not yet been arrested. Some of the small banks of this city are shaking in the wind. The Knickerbocker, Suffolk, Eighth avenue, and Bank of the Union, have suspended operations, and their circulation is going in for redemption. It is scarcely possible, that bill-holders should sustain any loss by the failure of these concerns, whatever may be the fate of the depositors. The fact is, we have too many banks of the small fry class. They do anything but a legitimate business, and the soener they are wound up and their netes redeemed from the proceeds of their stock in the hands of the Comptroller, the better. The Knickerbocker Savings Bank also has failed. The weather here is warm enough for August, and the furs, merinoes, and other winter goods behind the plate-glass windows of the fashionable stores in Broadway, look singularly unseasonable. A fine body of firemen, from Lynn, Mass., calling themselves the Silver Greys and wearing a beautiful uniform of that color, are now receiving the hospitality of the fire department of this city. The cholera, which has nearly ceased its ravages on terra firma, is making a frightful havoc at sea. On board the Harvest Queen, from Liverpool, and the Piscatore from Havre, both arrived yesterday, the total number of deaths on the voyage was one hundred and twenty-five. Seventy-five dead bodies were thrown overboard from the former, and fifty from the latter. The Second avenue railroad company was yesterday mulcted in $3,000 damages, l'or a breach of contract in suspending the laying of concrete rail, after having agree therefor. Whenever a jury get a chance of this kind at a railroad corporation, they are pretty sure to give the plaintiff a rousing verdict. Besides the criminal trials in the court of oyer and terminer this week, there have beentwo In the court of sessions one for manslaughter in the fourth degree, and the other for rape. Both the offenders were found guilty and sentenced to two year's imprisenment. So we go! All the theaters here, seem to be doing a good business, notwithstanding the 'hard times.' At the Broadway English Opera is decidedly successful. Miss Louisa Pyne, the prima donna, is a delightful singer; but the "great Engliah tenor," as n he is called, is by no means equal to Wood, v Wilson, and others, who have preceded him in the same line. d Business continues to be dull, and ref trenchment of expenses seems to be the n order of the day among our merchants.Still there are no heavy failures, and although we shall probably have a "tight" g time this fall and next winter, there is a fair prospect of a renewal of trade in the h spring. The clearing house which was established last spring by the different e banks, has been the cause of the suspenI sion of the banks reported above. If a I bank fails to settle up its accounts daily, ) it is suspended from the privileges of the ) house, which causes a general run upon it, which few banks can go through safeel ly.
