&OOHESTEB AND NEW YORK: 
SATURDAY, APRIL 11, I860. 
New York State. 
The recent action of the Assembly, upon the 
Erie Railroad bill, has evoked much comment, and 
charges of corruption have been made by the press, 
and the public at large. It seems that there may be 
some truth in such charges, as they have been made, 
directly, by Mr. E. M. K. Glenn, a member of the 
Assembly from Wayne Cotinty. On Wednesday of 
last week that gentleman presented to the Speaker 
from his seat in the House, a statement distinctly 
charging that the report on the Erie Railroad hill 
was bought; that a portion of the vote on the floor of 
the House in adoptiug the said report, was bought; 
that members of the House were engaged in buying 
their fellow members; that a portion of the vote on 
the Harlem Milk bill was bought ; that some of the 
commitiees of the House charge fur reports, and, 
generally, corruption, deep, dark and damning, on a 
portion of the House. A resolution and amend¬ 
ment were adopted providing for a special Commit¬ 
tee of five to investigate said charges and any other. 
The Committee, as appointed by the Speaker, 
consists of Messrs. Allis of Onondaga; Lasher of 
Oswego; Button of Cattaraugus; Fre&r of New 
York; and Dayton of Erie. 
In the Court of Impeachment, on Thursday, the 
Assembly Managers appeared at the bar of the Senate. 
Hon. S. M. Weed appeared as counsel for the Mana¬ 
gers, and Hons. John U. Reynolds and noury Smith 
appeared as counsel for Mr. Dorn. The committee 
on rules submitted a series of rules for the govern¬ 
ment of the court, which were adopted. The re¬ 
spondent was given until the 9th inst., to make 
answer to the articles of impeachment. 
Some speculation having been had as to whether 
the term of ollioe of the Superintendent of Instruc¬ 
tion really expires this Spring, or not, Mr. Folger, 
Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee has 
reported as the unanimous opinion of the Com¬ 
mittee that said term of office does so expire. 
A young girl, eighteen years of age, named Flora 
Morton, committed suicide in Utica, on Wednesday

suicide while in a fit of temporary insanity.

In the debate which occurred in the British | 
House of Commons the 2d inst., (Thursday night,) 
on the Irish Chureb question, the Liberals stoutly 
advocated Mr. Gladstone’s claim to office, in place 
of D’lsraeli’s. Mr. Robert Lowe, member for Caine, 
quoted statistics to show that out of one hundred of 
the population of Irdand, seventy eight were Catho¬ 
lics, nine were Presbyterians, and twelve belonged 
to the Irish Protestant Church Establishment. The 
latter church was alone aided by the Government, 
though its congregations were made up of the 
wealthiest classes of the community. The Irish 
people would be more than human if they could 
tamely submit to this. The tories claimed to be 
truly liberal. Let them preve it or retire. The 
Liberal party in the House had a leader whom they 
could trust. They were sure he would fulfill all his 
professions. Mr. Lowe ridiculed the course of the 
Ministers. Such a line of action would destroy all 
confidence between the executive and legislative 
departments of the government. All honest men 
were disgusted. The Premier had carried incon¬ 
sistency aud audacity to a height which the House, 
consulting its dignity, could not tolerate on a topic 
so solemn as that under discussion. 
The debate was continued on the night or the 3d 
inst., and Disraeli admitted that there was some¬ 
thing critical in the affairs of Ireland, When the 
debate closed Mr. Gladstone’s motion for the disen- 
dowment or the Protestant Church of Ireland was 
carried by a majority of fifty-six. It is thought this 
victory of the Liberals will result in the overthrow 
of the Disraeli Government.

Rochksteb, April 7, 1668. j 
Tub National Banks throughout the country made their 
quarterly returns yesterday. In this locality the banks 
while preparing for the Statement continued to afford their 
customers about the osual amount of accommodation. 
Money has been in act.ve demand for a week, but no very 
marked stringency exited. It is expected the banks will 
be better supplied withenrrency than for some time past. 
In New York the prestore still continues. The Commercial 
Advertiser of Saturdaysays;—" Although the preparations 
for the. bank statement are now past, the banks do not appear 
to be in a condition to do much for borrowers." 
At Boston the last week is reported as one of great finan¬ 
cial stringency. The Bdletin saysThe loans of the banks 
have been very high, and the wants of all classes of borrow¬ 
ers have been steadily upon the Increase for several weeks." 
The gold market cortinnes weak. The advance of our 
securities in Europe, the rise of cotton in Liverpool, the 
large arrivals from California, the light shipments of specie 
to Europe, with the coming heavy gold interest payments, 
are among the prominent causes of the downward tendency 
that has existed. Sales at the New York Board were made 
yesterday at 1S8>£. 
Governments are very firm at an advance. Seven-Thirties 
are bought to considerable extent by the Government. The 
compound interest notes due in May amount to about twenty- 
five millions. 
Wool.— Tbe Eastern wool market has been quiet during 
the last week. The sales in Boston for the week amount to 
936,000 lbs., at about former prices. The coarser grades are 
now mostly in favor, as manufacturers are turning their at¬ 
tention to heavy fabrics adapted to the fall trade. 
Wheat and Flour,—T here are no important changes to 
notice. The prospect of an early opening of lake navigation, 
when the western accumulations of the winter will come for¬ 
ward, tends to prevent any decided advance in prices.
