It is to theso, circumstance*, as may be collected from the best private letters, and not to any of the measures expected from Gonsjress, that the improvement of that money market is to ascribed. It is remarked, however, that "the liquidation of euapended debts cannot proceed very rapidly lor some months to come ; | our debts at home and ahmml mu?i Ku paid out of the vniious products of our own soil, and until they com-e freely to market, it is idle to expect that much pro? gross can be made toward lessening the large amount of engagements." The anticipation of any substantial relief from Congress is generally ridiculed by men of sense and experience, and it is observed that "there is no way to set things right but to leave them tcr regulate themselves, I which they will very quickly do so soon 4 as our cotton begins to move toward u market." The calculation is, that if Liverpool and Manchester can afford to give 6d per pound for American cotton, that* alone will "suffice to bring matteis round, i A well informed merchant, speaking of th? trade in bullion between the two countries, says that not more than $2,500,000, on , balance, have quitted the United Slates' as the result of the late eomineminl rri aijt I nearly as much going one way as the other.

The following is the result of this interesting face, which, from the accounts given in the extra before us, was well contested front ' the beginning to the end:? Col. J. M. Shelden's Lady Clitfden, 4 years old, 4 11' Col. Winn's Picton, 3 years I old, " 14 3 Col.Stevens* Fanny Wyatt, | 4 years old, 3 3 2!

I In speaking of the race, the Editor of! the Spirit of the Times says:?44 The | shouts of thousands arc still ringing in our ears, as wc employ the brief time before the mails close in giving our distant readers a few hurried details1 of the most splendid race ever made in America ! The laurels won" by the Eclipse have been torn from his brows bv Lady (Midden of the South. The victory was nobly won. Every inch of ground was so dcspeiately contested, that next to winning, the greatest pleasure in life appeared to be in losing. Three of the nonpareils entered?Picton, Lady Clilfdcn and Fanny Wyatt?.vere in condition to run for a man's life, and three better nags were never stripped on a race track. Mingo, the fourth entry was complaining, the ten Ions in his near fore leg being much swollen, but, 44 us he was . entered, and start he must if on tlir''e legs," remarked bis gallant owner in the morning. Hereafter we will attempt a description of the race; after the intense, excitement attendant upon it has subsided ?an excitement in which all participated -we hope to bo better prepared to give the particulars of a contest, to which no1 pen can do adequate justice. It was a race that will be remembered by each of the thirty thousand persons who witnessed it, to their dying dying day, ami its history will go down through all time as one of the most fiercely contested and glorious victories ever achieved by a high mettled racer and his honest rider !** I VVc should like to see Lady ClifTdrnJ Picton, and some of the Northern craek nags, on the Lafayette or Hampton course! this fall or next spring. We have n few i horses here that can make tracks as fast as I any of them?and that can put them up to all they know.

This genteel thing is said to have been done to save the publisher the trouble of sending for his dues, and Mr. Hampton the trouble of filing his reeepls. It was doubtless a delicate mode adopted by him of contributing substantial aid to a paper in the success of which he fell an interest.
