H is staled in some rl" the Xcw York Citj- papers of the 20:h of April that money in that city is worth 3 percent, per month on the best commercial piper. The National Intelligencer of a late dale, also has the following paragraph : "It is remarkable that while money is so !C2rce as in New York to command, in some rtses, a premium of ten per cent, a month from the s.if.-st borrowers, the prices of labor and subsistence arc unusually high. This is ncurious fact, and h without precedent, we believe, in the history of this country. It can only he accounted for by the circumstances, equaiiy unprecedented, of the Government having thirty odd millions of dollars locked up in the depositc banks, and a large proportion of that amount of currency consequently withheld from circulation. In fact, t ho Govcrnmc.it ii ranidlv absorbing all the money of
tiie country, and if something be not done, ar,;l done speedily, to restore to circulation and usefulness a part at least of the enormous which has accumulated in th? Treasury, the most distressing consequences to the community must ensue.

The money market is ivly pressed in these United S.'.ites of ours. Why is this so?

LCtEST FROM TEXASIsiportant RErouT. Wc k yesterday received New Oi lcans papers of the 13th and 1 1th inst. and the recent unfavorable news from Texas induces the editor of the True American to dispair of the success of the Texians. He savs that their resources in men, money and provisons are too limited to enable them to get along, he also thinks their declaring themselves independent was an ill advised step, and one which they cannot rossiblv sustain unless the U. States
Government interfere in their behalf. This.of
course will not be done, and wc therefore greatlv fear that our noble and brave countrymen in that Territory will fall martyrs to their heroic sympathies. The American of the lith however contains a report of very important character, and one to which the editor seemcs to yield his belief, lie savs: Cin. Ji'hw.
'Passengers who arrived in town yesterday.
on hoard the steam boat Saahespcare. report that the soldiers composing a part cf General Gaines" command, and stationed on our southwestern frontier, five hundred in number, deserted, for the purpose of joining the Texians. This report is in a manner confirmed from another source. A gentleman, late an ofileer in the Texian army, we understand has stated that he met on his way hither bands, of these soldiers some in uniform, some in fatigue dresses and others in citizens'' clothes.'
Tiie N. Orleans papers contain several reports that Col. Fanning with his three hundred brave followers had been overtaken by the Mexi ans near Goliad, and that the w hole were massacred. The reports were not be-
hII around her. For whose benefit have thee I lieved, however: but it not destroyed, ineir
is no doubt of their being in eminent pern.
