iHcnt amongst the STOCK 0DDing ctqu<s IN w all b.,
in consequence Of the anticipated position Of the
President on the Oregon question. The bitterness
developed between the "bulls' and the "bears,' in
their various operations, is quite amusing. Even
the stock-jobbng journals, Wall street, are pari-
cpating in the excitement, and are beginning to
come out with leaders attacking each other. The
Courier, which is a stock-Jobbing journal, belonging
to one of the ciiques has made very indecent
attack on Camman Il Whitehouse, for SELL
ing large amount of Stocks atributing the trans
action to Corcoran II Riggs, bankers, of Washing
ton, and representing that the latter were the prompt
ers and principals of the former So furious is the
war between the "bus'' and the "bears" that
some OF them are eloquent in their denuncatons Of
their antagonist, and declare that they would give
halt million to break down such and such bro
ker. In the meantime, the war Of the "cornerers"
and the spectators goes most swimmingly. The
banks are beginning 10 participate in the excite
ment, and loan money to their tavorite brokers,
without any stint or moderation.


II a stranger goes into Wall street, between II
and o'clock, he will see nothing but anxious and
excited groups at every corner, OF those agitated
stock -iobbers discussing foreign misunderstanding
on the Oregon question-giving intimations of let





have received in private correspondence. One day
the "buls'' are all covered with smiles and enjoy
ment, the 'bears'' down in the heel, down in the
mouth, and down in every thing The next day the
"bears" are all sunshine, and the bulls look as
grim death. To the business world, such scenes
only ludicrous and melancholy. We have al
ways observed in this extraordinary street, that the
"bulls' and the bears" eventually become the VIC
TINS of their own folly, and generally leave the
street penniless and beggared


Our PLors-AppRoAcH OF WINTER.-There
has been much written during the past six or
seven years on the subject of Pilpt laws and regu-
latons, and appeals have been made to the feel
ings of snip-owners and Legislators, in behalf Of
passengers coming into our port, at the imminent
risk of their lives, consequence of the inattention
of Pilots. All this would be well enough, if the
writers were acquainted with their subjects 1t is,
however, not to be denied that reasonable COM
petition, in any business, will bring forward more
energy and attention to its prosecution than mo-
nopoly; but is 1t well to have no restrictions in
business in which many lives and so
vast an amount OF property are at stake The
present situation of the Pilot laws is such as to
allow very many, who are unfit for the station, to
be employed to bring our vessels in, and carry
them out of our harbor. And cal tans are some-
times rash enough to act the pilot the ships in
their charge, presuming upon the experience of a
few years in traversing the bay in safety in charge
of those who have been bred to the business; and
this to the great risk of the property in their keep
ing. Our shipowners and agents should take this
into consideration. They should look back month
or two, and ascertain how several vessels came
near being wrecked by the reckless conduct of
those in charge. The stormy winter months are
approaching, and hundreds and hundreds of human
beings are on their way hither let those the most
deeply interested in their fate, examine into the
existing pilot system let them see il be safe to
permit inexperienced men TO act as pilots. Let
Congress take hold OF the matter, and have it re-
organized let experienced men only be employed.
Not single regular New York pilot would object
10 this


ANrI-RENTIsM.-The 10Th Of this month is the
time appointed for the execution Of Van Steenburgh
and O'Conner, the two anti-renters found guilty OF
the murder of Deputy Sheriff Steele, in Delaware


Petitions, we understand, are being circulated
both in this city and IN Delaware, to be presented to
Governor Wright, requesting INN to commute the
sentences of those persons, and the excitement il
both places is considerable This will be very
delicate question for the action of the Governor
While large portion of the democratic party are ur-
gent to have the law vindicaed, and the offenders
executed-another powerful portion are in favor OF
having their sentences commuted BY the ates
accounts the anti-reners making serious inroads
in the democratic ranks, and, from present appear
ances, likely to produce revolution in that par.
ty. But whichever way the Governor may act, will
not at all affect antlrentlsm We see, by the results Of
the election, that they poll considerable vote, su
ficent to elect their candidates by large majority


In our opinion, antl-rentism is destined to show
powerful front, and will make great deal of trouble
hereafter in this State


INTERESTING FROM THE ARGENTINE REPUBLIC
The barque Roslna, Capt Doty, arrived yesterda,
from Rio Grande. She had passage of forty-eigh
days, and brings us rather important news relative
to the affairs in the Argentine Republic.


We learn from Capt. Doty, that the French ant
English had taken the towns of Colonia ST. Luis
Maldanada and Bosco, without any resistance or
the part of the inhabitants After this, the com
blned forces were proceeding up the river to take
Buenos Ayres.


This intelligence indicates a determination on
the part of England and France to force Rosas to an
immediate peace


THE CITY HosPITAL.-A few nights since the
captain of vessel now in this port, unfortunately
slipped and fell in Broadway, nearly opposite the
Hospital, and fractured his leg. He was carried ur
to the porters lodge, and it is said that after waiting
nearly an hour, the party was an insoent manner
denied admission by the porter. We can hardly
believe this to be possible, but mention the com
plant In order that the proper authorities will direct
| their attention to the matter


| PRoMENADING IN BRoADwAY.-The crowds which
now promenade Broadway from the Battery tc
Washington Square, are really astonishing Twen
| ty years ago the fashionable promenade extended

1t extends three or four times that distance, and the
crowd is so great that it very difficult to get along
