I have already mentioned the suspension of trade, by two leading clothing houses in this city, who jointly employed 700 hands, and now must be added the discharge of sixty more, from one of the principal silver manufacturing, establishments in the city. Some of these were parties who had served for years as apprentices in the establishment. The Williamsburg tailors — of whom many hundreds just now have nothing to do — are to have a public meeting this week, to consult as to what is best to be done.

Nothing more was seen of him until daylight this morning, when his wife discovered his dead body in a barn near by. The skull of deceased was split in two and the brains scattered all over the floor, presenting a most awful spectacle. The names of the supposed murderers are not known, but the police are on their track, and have no doubt of bringing them to justice. The tides have been unusually high for several days past — a remarkable circumstance, seeing that the wind has been strong from the northwest, but accounted for on the theory of heavy easterly winds off shore. The United States frigate Cumberland was towed to the Brooklyn Navy-Yard this morning, to receive her new armament. Money was "hard" on all hands to-day, and rates range all the way up from 7 to 10a 12 per cent. Southern exchange cannot be sold, unless with bills of lading attach
