HOUSE—JAN. 26.
nEPOllT OF INVESTIGATING COMMITTEE.
Mr. Hannegan from the committee on investigation made the following report, accompanied with a printed volume containing the evidence, to-wit:
Thc select committee directed by certain resolutions of the House, to investigate the transactions of the Fund Commissioners, and other agents and officers of the State, tyave directed me to report thc accompanying testimony. In so doing, thc committee nrc of opinion, that the order of this House, directing one thousand copics of thc same to be printed, has superseded thc necessity of commenting upon such testimony in this report.
There arc many reasons which nnturnllv suggest the propriety of this coursc, on the part of thc committee under thc order of thc House, which was evidently intended to leave thc whole matter open for the investigation of the community.
After a careful consideration of the testimony, however, the committee feci constrained to present for thc adoption of the House, the following resolution
Resolved, That suits should be instituted by the proper authority, pn behalf of the State against Isaac Coc and Milton Stapp for malversation in office, after allowing them until thc first day of next May to settle their accounts with thc State.
Which report was concurred in by thc House, and the committcc discharged.
DRUNKENNESS—MURDER. Another horrid murder, by n. husband of his wife, took place in New Y'ork, on the 14th inst. Win. Adams, nn Englishman, went to his home, intoxicated. He quarrelled with a servant girl, and threw a plate at her head, thrcntening other violence.— His wife, who was washing at the door, came in and remonstrated against his violence. He sprang towards her, swearing he would have her life— struck her on the breast with a carving knife, inflicting deep wound. Drawing out thc reeking instrument, struck her a second blow with such force that the knife penetrated through a wooden corset-board, and entered thc left ventielc of tho heart. She fled with thc girl to an adjoining house, where she died in a few minutes. Adams was arrested nnd locked up, too stupid to know what he had done, and was not roused to consciousness until called thc next day to examine thc corpse of his murdered wife! Thc spectacle seemed for the time to overwhelm him. He was of intemperate habits, and abusive to his wife.' She was reputed nn honest, industrious, inoffensive woman.

It is tho policy of almost all foreign" nations, to husband their own resources—to purchase nothing which thev themselves can produce. Thus England prohibits the importation of Iwcf nnd pork, though worth to them from 12 to 16 ccnts per lb., and leaves a duty of from 1 to 3 dollars per bbl— on flour, thc duty being regulated bv thc demand, pricc and value. Tobacco is taxed 600 per cent— and cotton is free raw cotton valued at 12$ cts. per lb., when manufactured is worth from 50 to 75 ccnts per lb. The amftunt of imports from thc United States is about 50 millions of dollars, when manufactured worth 200 millions.' This is one of the most productive sourecs of wealth to thc British nation. Thc duty on Tobacco in Franee, is from 6 to 800 per cent. Beef, pork and (lour arc not admitted for consumption. Most of our American productions arc taxed to whatever ]ort or country tlicv arc shipped. I consider thc policy of this Government most suicidal in admitting foreign productions and manufactures, free, or nearly free of duty. It is reducing American labor to thc average of the operatives of England, nnd thc colored subjects of India. When India shall produce as much cotton as Great Britain can consume, will hot American cotton lie taxed! Most assuredly will this be thc case—nnd wc shnll be altogether deprived of a foreign market.
In view of such considerations, I would now propose that a committcc of five be appointed to draft resolutions, expressing thc condition of thc people their distress—and recommending such measures for their alleviation as shall lie moctjudirions.
The committee, Isaac C. Pugh. James Renshaw, William Cantrill, E. O. Smith, R. B. Hale, reported the following resolutions, which were unanimously adopted:
Pcsaired, That the rail-mads and ennals are, and ouphl in be public pr.'pfny tube made a:id camnlotrii by the State whenever she may ch mse. Thatsellins or chart trine to stuck ciiinpanifS, is a tax upon the land and the interior of the State.

Iltsolred, Thai, whereas, the debt of the State has increased to 19 millions of dlare, throneh her pijantic improvement system—at a time when ihe currency of thc country was inflated to double of its real value, by imprudently entrusting her credit into thc hands of men who seem disposed to'depreciate its value—enterinz into extravagant and unwarrantable contracts, when the Slate is totally unable to meet herewraeements, when most of iho specic has Wt the country, and bankineinstiuituns have cither failed or suspended payments.

Resolved, That the law made by the last Lpfislaiarefir Assess T* to value no land at less than three dollars per acre, when oftentimes the bolder of the land would sell for one dollar per acre, is unconstitutional, unjust, illegal, and derogatory to the morals of the country.

tion, and property being in consequence, deprccia- the following gentlemen ns members of the Select ted to half its value of 1837 and 8, and without
buyers. Thc Pennsylvania Bank ofthe United States cing the exportation of cotton to be about filly trillions of dollars, in which was concentralcd thc commerce of the United States, nnd that it was intimately connected and blended with all the other agricultural productions, despatched agents to England to monopolize and control thc trade. This was continued for two or three years. Thc Bank loaned her credit to the State of Mississippi, for five millions of dollars, takes her bonds, guarantees the payment, sells them, and pays thc money over to the State.
This State, conceiving gigantic notions of her immense resources, and future greatness, appoints commissioners to borrow seventeen and a half millions of dollars. She establishes the Union Bank as a fiscal agent with this five millions and the credit of thc State, she loans to all who apply speculations are rife—the borrowers arc all making money in thc rise of value of property—cottons, lands, rail-roads, and the immense importation of foreign goods. Mississippi had the appcaraiicc of being the first State in thc Union but the time came in 1840 and' 41, when the production of cotton increased on thc consumption, and depreciated its value. Thc production of cotton in the Indies, in the year previous to the 1st of June, 1841, was 476,000 bales, nearly half as much as England receives from the United States. Thc increase and consumption ofEnst India cotton in England for the last 23 years, on American cotton, is 10 to 1. Thc price has consequently fallen from 25 to 33J per cent. Property in Mississippi has Jeprcciated in thc same ratio. The Union Bank loaned her money to those who becamc embarrassed and failed, she failed in consequencc, and could not reimburse to thc State—nnd thc State can neither pay the bonds or thc interest she never can and never will pay them, however wrong, however unjust. Five million^ of bonds aregunrantecd by the United States as endorsers hut she has failed, through inconsiderate loans nnd thc cotton trade.
Bo great have been thc improvements in agriculture, both in England nnd through Europe, generally, that in a short period there can be no great ninount of produce exported. It has been by thc application of lime, gypsum, and marl, that thc moors, tho heaths, and thc barrens of England have becoinc cultivated fields, and produce sufficient wheat for the British nation. In many of the eastern States, worn out fields and clay soils arc brought to produce large crops by thc application of lime and manure thev can produce sufficient to supply thc eastern cities. Beef, some 2 or 3 years sincc, was worth from ti to §10 per hundred in thc Atlantic States, at present it rates only from 3 to $5 pork bears a corresponding price—and the transportation, to say nothing ofthe production, is more than it is worth. Nor can wc much longer find a rnnrkct for our productions in thc cotton growing States, ns they cannot compctc with thc growth of cotton in India not until the price oflabor in thc cotton growing ..States in reduced to 4, and 8 cents per day, tfic average pries of labor, in Bombay ami Surnt.

Ncw-Orlcans Market,
Jaw. t9.
With thc exception of our principal staples, Cotton and Tobacco, in which a fair amount of business has been dono during the last three days, particularly in thc former, wc have again to report an exceedingly dujl market, though in pricc there arc few or no changes of importance. Money continues scarcc beyond precedent, and commercial affairs were, perhaps never in a more gloomy nnd unsettled state, so thc holders of those descriptions of merchandize that arc usually sold, on time are afraid, in most instances, to avail themselves of even the limited demand that exists, and generally stipulate for cash, which is an articlc not readily obtained.
FLOUR.—After wc left thc market on Friday last a sale of some 1500 barrels was made at $5 50, said to have been for shipment to England This has not been followed up by any further considerable transactions so for as wc could learn, and we found the market dull yesterday at $5 50 5 75 for superfine, thc latter price being only obtained for limited lots from store. Arrived during the last three days 8556 barrels cleared in thc same time 1950 barrels.
PORK—Wc continue former quotations, which arc for Clear $9 a 9 50, Mess $8 a 8 50, Prime §6 a 6 50, thti lowest figures being for old, and thc lightest for new Pork, There is a little more enquiry, however, for new Mess, nnd holders, generally, are now asking S9 for this description. Arrived during thc last three days 7907 barrels, and 22,000 pounds in bulk.
BEI5F.—During thc past few days there has again been rather more enquiry for new Prime, and holders of this description arc very firm at $6 per barrel, some refusing to sell at this pricc. Mess remains the same—say $10 a II 00 for wholo, and 5 50 a 00 for half barrels, demand very limited. Arrived during the last three days 151 barrels.
BACON.—Thc previously large stock has been increased by further arrivals, while the market continues exceedingly dull, anil thc rates very irregular, though thc limited transactions that take place are, generally, within thc following range—say for Hants 3^ a 4 cents. Canvassed do 4 a 6, Hides 3 a 3$, Shoulders 2 a 2} ccnts per lb. Arrived during thc last three dnys 546 hhds.
LARD.—There is still fair demand, hut thc receipts are very heavy, and priccs, theafire, nrc hardly sustained, (Ji cents being now the highest thit can be obtained for aprinic article. Wc quote extremes at 4J a 5i ccnts per lb.' Arrived during the last three days 1062 barrclsand 18510 kegs ^WHISKEY.—Supplies continue to arrive rather sparingly, and holders arc still quite firm at 17^ a 18 rents per gallon for Rccliflcd, though the demand is not active at these rnto. Arrived during the last three days 452 barrels.
GRAIN.—The market cftitimtes almost without demand, and holders tint! it impossible to effect sales to any considerable extent, while at thc same time thc stocks arc daily increased by further arrivals. We now quote Shelled Corn, in sacks, at 40 a 42 cents per bushel. Oats do 37J ccnts per huithcl. Arrived during the last three days 3773 sacks Com. 2530 do Oats.
COFFEE.—Wc have no material change to noticc in prices sincc our la report, but have again to remark that the market continues exceedingly dull and depressed for all descriptions, with a heavy stock, particularly of Rio. Our quotations arc for Havana prim green I0J a 11 ccnts, Rio9j a 10J, Laguavra 10 a 10 cts per lb. These arc thc rates on 4 months credit, bat in the present unstable condition of commercial aflUirs thc holders, generally. are desirous of making their sales for cash at a fair reduction, which they find it impossible to do to any considerable extent, owing to thc exceeding scarcity of that commodity.
SUGAR,
