The official statement of the Treasury Department nf a late date, shows thc National Bank circulation to bc S233;7S5.00o. An Increase of upward of $1,000,000 has been issued during th? past wick. jjTho schooner Jw, of Belfast, from Portland for Pos? ion, with molasses, was abandoned at sea on thc 23d December, in a sinking condition. Tho crew were saved. The Erio Railway has just negotiated a loan of four million five hundred thousand doUars, in England, for tho completion of its double track. Eleven negroes have been recently sentenced to the Penitentiary from Montgomery County, Alabama, and seven from Tuscaloosa County. At this rate tho Peni? tentiary of that Sta'o will be soon filled with this clasn of prisoners. The instructions of ocr ncwMitjister to Mexico, who ls ordered at once to his post, and to remain near Presi? dent JUAREZ, are of so decided a character that the Im? perial party wiU not be long in ascertaining the poUcy of the United States Government. A Maine paper states that a colony of fifty families, principally from that State, is to embark for Palestine in July next. They propose to settle at Jaffa, thc ancient Joppa, building lots having been purchased, and will carry out with them Yankee improvements. The question of an appointment to fill tho vacancy in the United States District Judgeship, occasioned by the death of Judge CATRON, having given risc to recent speculation, it is an opinion that the appointment be? longs to the South, and it wiU for a time bo held in abeyance. WILLIAM A HAMMOND, late Surgeon-General of tho United States, has gone to Europe, in charge of a grand? son of thc lato JOHN JACOB ASTOR; and a gossiping cor? respondent says thot bc receives for his services $10,000 in gold for six mo it hs-all traveling and subsistence ex? penses liberally paid-and ?3000 for each month occu? pied beyond the sixth.

One man swam ashore, but died from ex posurc after walking half a mile along thc beach. His life-preserver was marked, "A'ctcfon, Hamburg." About 1200 barrels of kerosene oil have been saved from tho wreck. Mormonism looms up as tho next hobby beforo thc country. Old army officers who havo served on tho plainB, and who have been brought in contact with tho people of Salt Lake City, are besieging tho President wi?i suggestions and plans for the employment of our mUitary f jrec against tho Latter Day Saints, in default of au opportunity fur their employment against MAXI ifTT Ttv and NAPOLEON. The proof volume, Just from the government press, giving fuR statistical information regarding manufac? tures in this country, asserts that the present value of the manu?ctured cotton is equal to three dollars aud sixty-eight cents jxr capita of thc whole population of the United States. Thc amount of woven fabric is ?qual to thirty-six yards per head-moro than doublo the esti? mated average consumption of Grsat Britain. The schooner Haines, Captain Errnur, from Hayti, of and for Boston, with a cargo of logwood, &c, went ashore during tho gale of Friday night on '' 1 southside of Nantucket, and all hands perished. r crew con? sisted of seven men. One body was found an thc beach. The vessel's boa t was found upset about half a milo from the wreck. Tho crew probably endeavored to save themselves in it, but were capsized beforo reaching land. The Spanish Government has given instructions to its cruisers to treat Chilean privateer? as pirates, if their crews are not natives of the Republic of Chile. Signor ASIA DUUNAGA, tho Chilean charge d'Affaires here, has beeu informed of the solemn protest of his Government against this procedure of the Spanish Government. If ! carried into effect this Castiliaii manifesto will bo fol- j lowed by the uost severe reprisals ou tho part of the ! Chilean Government, which recognizes as citizens all who aro employed iu its war or merchant mariue, and . wiR afford them thc fullest protection. T.ic Methodist Episcopal Churches in New York are j making considerable preparations to cel?bralo the first | Sunday of January, which is to be the anniversary of thc ? cue hundredth year of the existence of that denomina Hon in America. Bishops MORRIS, JANES, SCOTT, Sixrr-1 SON, BAKER, A'ILS, CLARE, THOMPSON and KINGSLEY j have muted in an address, giving .1 brief history of thc success of thc Church and its reasons for thanksgiving i aud rejoicing. The general missionary committee of the ! Church have reported th.it $(?30,368.78 was raised last I year for Church purposes. Thc religious belief of thc deceased Presidents of thc I United States, r.s indicated by their attendance upon public worship, aud evidence afforded in their writings, ! may bc summed op as follows : Washington, Madison, 1 Mouroe, Harrison, Tyler aud Taylor were Episcopalians; Jefferson, John Adams and John Quincy Adams, were Unitarians; Vau Luven was of the Dutch Reformed ' Church ; Jackson, Polk bud Lincoln were Presbyte? rians. Thc surviving Presidents ?ire PiUmore, a Uni? tarian; Pierce, a Trinitarian Congregationalist ; Buchan- ' an, an Episcopalian : and the present chief Magistrate, Johnson, who is a Presbyterian. Th.- .Ifta Calif'jruia, of November 27th, devotes a leading column to au examination of tho mining in- j forests of Nevada, remarking that "thc yield is continu- ' ally increasing," and noticing in detail various imp?t- ; taut enterprises. In Nye County, for example, $1,000, Ot'U has been invested within .1 year in mills aud mines. ' The article referred to concludes as follows : Thc contributions of S;ui Francisco for the opening of Ute mines of Nerada, did uo; cease with tho panic of lsd. it Ut still a common event amomt business men iu our streets to pay osscssmcnU for sinking shafts ur building m?h; in remote districts at mines scarcely beard ot by anybody but the stockholders.

MONDAY MORNING, JANUARY 1, 18GC. OUR READERS will be, doubtless, pleased to see that we have fulfilled the promise we made them some time since, and enter on tho year with more expanded pages. Amid the general gloom, we have much for which to feel truly grateful. Commencing this journal at the close of summer, there was much to raise a doubt of its success. It was not cer? tain that business would revive, and it was not certain, therefore, that, with the utmost industry and prudence, we would be ablo to sustain our enterprii-c ; the country wa3 con- ! trolled by the military forces of tho Govern ment, and it was not certain that wo could express the interests and feelings of our people in consistence with the requisitions of author I ity ; it was not certain that opinions expressed in consistence with requisitions of authority would be accepted by our people, and we J entered upon an experiment, therefore, which was not promising, and to which wc wcro in? duced, less by a consideration of thc advan? tages it prcsonted, than thc fact that, under the necessity of exertion, thero was no other form of activity moro attractive. It wero but rair to say that our humble expectations hr-.vo been more than realized. With its first number our journal was a success. Business has been more abundant thau could have been antidoted; our pages have been more crowded than those of any paper ever published in the city ; to military authority, it is but fair to make the acknowledgment that they have never attempted the unpleasant task of censorship; the feelings and interests of our people we have been able to present in such form as to win their approbation and support; the postoffice printing, that official recognition of superior position, has been drawn from the reluctant hand of ablo and distinguished competitors : and we appear to? day, ia less than fivo months from our com? mencement, with a larger circulation, more expanded pages, and more abundant patron? age, than any other paper iu this State has ever had. For these results we are truly grateful; they arc attributable to accident, perhaps, as much ns merit; wc arc conscious that many better eflbrts have been worso re? warded ; but, in acknowledgment of the favors thus conforrcd, we have to our indul? gent patrons this pledge to offer-that if our rewards havo so far been greater than our merits, henceforth, if it bc possible, our mer? its shall bo greater than our rewards. WE HAVE, to-day, the pleasant office of wishing our many readers a happy now year. Tho wish may not avail them. We may "call spirits from tho vasty deep''7 that may not come, and cold may fall our greeting on thc hearts of friends so rocked with cares as many are to-day. But it is a pleasant office cheap, if not effoctive-which may smooth some wrinklo from thc troubled brow; or, if it should not, it is a virtue whose practice is its own reward, and tho phosphorescence of a kindly act that fails to illumine others, will cling in brightness to tho hand that does it. Time, tho great06t living journalist, has closed the volumo of tho year that is gone, and spreads before the world, to-day, tho first unprinted pago of that to come. Wo all must be contributors. Each, be he sage or simple, lettered or unlearned, must trace, in 60me rudo way, tho record of his acts and thoughts upon it; and that volume now complete, whose lettered pages lie before us, marked by the traces of our lives for but a single year, contains an epic cf as much of grandeur ats has ever yet been given to the eye of man. It tells of republics, young and vigorous, each the champion of its social forms, with pow? ers marshaled and nerves strained to a struggle for existence, in.which the weaker falls to risc no inore; of thc President who, with brilliant fortunes and boundless prospects of oiubi- ! tion, falls, in tho very hour of triumph, by the j hand of an assassin; of that President, grave, ! accomplished, of Kornau firmness and ia- j tegrity; who, less than a year ago, sat secure in thc capital girt by a powerful army, and who, now for many mouths, has been thc tenant of a dungeon, reduced to beg the char? ity of a public trial, lt tells of a man, elect? ed to high office, but of no great influence_ tho leader of no party then in power-select? ed for no merit, however he may have pos? sessed it, but rather as an instrument to wield his State-with no hope or lear that he ] would ever come to power, but who, yet, lias j come to be their President-nor that alone, but of the L'nion : nor, of tho Union only, but pf the [Inionrestored hy his agency and order, j from which, he hold-; a higher place, to-day, | than any man has ever held upon this conti? nent. It tells of that general, Io\ ed and lion-1 ored by his country and thc world, who, in j command ol' one vast anny, with authority tu ? order others over the whole extended field ol'] that great contest, stood with hi* war-worn j marshals grouped around him, thc central ! figure of a most imposing military suene, and who i- now thc peaceful president ? of :t college in Virginia, lt toils ol" those generals iii on around him, tho heroes of moro contested, fields than any living men, and whoso names have passed bc-: youd thc limits of their land's laugunge, of whom one is tho president ol' an express j company, one ol' a railroad, some are dead, ? somo in trade, some in exile, and all are \ forced by patient labor to procuro their ? daily bread, It tells vf slavery, an; institution which had stood the test of time ; which had fixed its foundations in the habits and necessities of a great people ; which had vindicated its claims to merit by great ach? ?ementa; which had found the means to minglo races; which had brought savages to participation and agency in the highest civilization of the age, and the world in tribute to its industry, but which has been stricken down ; the ligaments of whoso con? stitution have been broken; whoBe commingled races have been torn apart, with nothing left for each, but to grope, as best it may, to a civilization of its own. Of this and more it tells; and it must be owned that there are few stories of more graphic grandeur in any lan? guage of the world than that presented by the simple records of this 6inglo year. It is not, of course, for us to realize its epic beau? ty. That can only como when time and dis? tance shall have mellowed it. These terrible realities are too vivid to admit the play of fan? cy ; but while to us there is but the sense of being crushed by their impending pressure, they will surely rise with time, and be blend? ed into song in after ages. The volume upon which we enter, it is to bc hoped, will bc less dramatic. But though necessarily of fearful interest, wo may not look upon its pages until they shall bo turnea by time to our experience ; the characters are already doubtless traced upon it. There is al? ready written, doubtless, if wo could but read it, all that we must know and feel throughout tho year, for that which must be, is; and amid events of such exceeding mo? ment there is a natural wish. that wo may an? ticipate tho record, but that is not permitted. "Who gropes through space, even in the utmost destitution of a starless winter, may pyre his household goods and cherished relics, and may cast somo feeble ray of light upon the path before him ; but who gropes through thc winter of his starless life can find no fire from thc conflagration of all his past, to cast agleam of light ono 6tep beyond the threshold of tho future. * THE P -.ADELPHIA Press, in its issuo of last Saturaay, in an article headed "Southern Indebtedness,*'' indulges in somo remarks as unkind and ungenerous in spirit, as they are untruo and without foundation in point of fact. The Prc? contends that "the people of the South aro naturally much worried about their debts; and, finding that thc repudiation of some of tho Stato obligations, incurred during the war, is necessary to enable them to become onco moro classed among the gool citizens of the Union, they arc endeavoring to secure the repudiation of their private debts also/'' That there may bc some individuals among us who, having lost their all by tb^ omancipatiou of their slaves and destruction of their property, have not the means to meet their liabilities (their assets being destroyed}, ; and, thofcforc, desire tho repudiation of a debt they havo lost thc means of liquidating, wo aro willing to admit. But that "THE PEO? PLE OF THE SOUTH,"' at least such portion of' them as are able to settle with their North? ern creditors, desire to avoid doing so, is most emphatically false. Wc have lost much, but j our honor still remains, and it is absurd to j suppose that the sanio people, whose high principles of honor prompted them, during the war and when success attended their arms in every direction, to ignoro tho Sequestration Act, whereby, by a merely nominal payment in a depreciated currency, they could havo boen relieved of all thoso debts duo those at, the time our enemies, would desiro now to de? fraud those whom wo again regard as our countrymen, even though they yet refuse to j give us our political dues. Ibero is much ? satisfaction, however, in the thought that, the Philadelphia Press is NOT tho mouth-piece, of our Northern brethren, and does not ex- ; press their sentiments. Hundreds of cases havo come to our knowledge, where Southern J men have gone to New York, and, lacking thc means to settle iu full, have offered their creditors a part payment on acouiu, which these creditors, with a much higher appre? ciation of our principles of honesty and honor than thc Prc?, most generously and magnan? imously declined to accept, preferring to give ampio limo and await thc payment of thc whole, when tho debts could be moro convc vcuicutly liquidated. These gentlemen will never have cause to regret thc confidence they place in our integrity, ami whilst the great mass of tho Northern people do us jus? tice, we can afford to despise thc unjust slurs of a narrow-minded journal. _ ?!
