Perer’s at Fuorence.—On the last Sunday in June, while the church of St. Peter, at Florence, was crowded with people attending high mase, a heavy bench was nadenly thrown down with a loud crash, which re-echoed many times from the high and vaulted roof, creating an alarming sensation, which was increased into a general terror by simultaneous cries from several voices that the roof was falling down. In the panic every oue rushed to the doors, struggling with such violence to get out, that numbers were severely in- jured, and fell senseless on the ground. This was the effect propoged by those who created the confu- sion, viz: a band of thieves, believed to have come from Leghorn, who took advantage of it to commit an immense number of robberies, and who not only drew the rings from the fingers of those whom they attacked, but bratally tore out the ear-rings from the ears of the female part of the congregation. The thieves made their escape with a valuable booty.

We marched from there on the morning of the 6th. We ascen- ded the Heights in five hours, and found the enemy ready to receive »s with a sharp fire, but in 8 hours gave way. The Infantry had the brunt of the work. particularly our regiment ; we lost twenty men and a lieutenant, and forty wounded ; we were five days and nights on the top of the Heights with nothing but what we stood in, a continual firing kept up the whole time, and all we had to eat or drink was four or five mouldy biseuits and a quart of water, which we carried with us in eur canteens.

Iu barley, malt, beans, and peas there is no alteration. Our supplies of Irish oats during this week have been small; but had,buyers appeared to any extent, they might have purchased on easier terms. In English and Scotch the same prices were asked without being realised. | Liverroo. Corron Market, Juny 1o.—There is no alteration to remark in our quotations during the week.— ‘The sules on each day have been considerable, but the inquiry has been met in so decided and general a manner as to preclude the possibility of any amendment in price. | Holders have appeared disposed to avail themselves of the present demand to reduce their stocks without seeking the slightest advance; which, indeed, with the present uncer- tainty as to the future, both as regards the state of trade in Manchester, and the prospects for the coming harvest, it would be difficult to realize. The common qualities of American Cotton ranging from 3]d to 4td, which have for some time past, been gradually declining in value, have lately coine into more general request, and are now, by reason of their relative cheapness, taken by many spinners in preference to Enst India kinds. ‘The latter are in consequence not quite so firm as before, andsome slight concession in price has been submitted to for quantity.

Havar, July 14.—Corroxs.—The same stagnation that we have remarked in our recent circulars, has continued without any abatement of its intensity since last report, and the same causes that have given rise to it, still weigh heavily upon our market. The universal excitement cre- ated by the elections, at present takes precedence of every other consideration, and almost exclusively absorhs pub- lic attention, which is thus diverted from its customary channels, and every branch of trade is consequently in- fluenced by it in a greater or less degree. Business has therefore been very flat throughout the whole week, the buying having been merely from hand to mouth, but not- withstandieg the prevalent depression, holders remain firm, and prices have not varied trom our preceding quo- tations. Our stock has nevertheless received further large accessions to it, and may now be computed at about 192,000 bales,a quantity almost, ifnot quite, unprecedented in the annals of our port ; and although it appears to be the general opinion that a revival is not far distant, an an- ticipation that would seem to be warranted by the long protracted dulness, and the probability of pretty extensive wants for the manufacturing districts, which for some time past have been but scantily supplied, still from the large amount ofthe rrw material on hand, it can hardly be expected that any improvement in prices will yet take lace. Sales from 7th to loth July—1861 bales, duty paid, £618 90 ; 492 do Mobile, do. 66475 ; 749 Upland, do. 60890 ; 36 Brazil, do. 96a96.50.

Mancnesten, Turspar—There was a rather better feeling in this market than for some weeks previously, and an increased amount of business was done in yarn (principally for the Russian market): and also in some descriptions of goods, particularly in domestics and infe- rior qualities in shirtings. Print! ng cloths, however,con- tinue as dull as ever; and in no description, either of goods or yarn, can any improvement of price be noted. . Rocupatr, Monpay—There has been a dull market to- day—not many buyers have attended, and the number of es sold has been limited. ‘Though the quantity of bu ‘siness has been sinaller, the prices have been stationary.— In the wool market prices remain the same ; but lamb and skin wools have been much inquired after, and are be- coming rather scarce. ‘Texas, The Mexicans have again invaded Texas and been driven back. Captain Elliott, the British envoy, has arrived there. ‘The crops are fine, and money is scarce. There is something remarkably similar in the threatenings of Mexico and Texas. {Each proclaims its intention to invade the other, for the purpose of subjugation. In both are men added to the armed force,while- their Legislatures are deliberating as to the best means of procuring money—the great sinew of war. The finances and credit of both are more- over at a very low ebb; nor can either boast of a leader of military science and the ycknowledged capacity for so great an enterprise asthe conquest of anation. What, then, is the inference to bedrawn? —that the invasion of Texas will not be attempted by Mexico,‘ on a scale commensurate with success —that the preparations of Texas will lead to nothing more than a few forays in the valley of the Rio del Norte, and perhaps some naval enterprises in the Guif. A Frenchman, named Morin, who holds the rank of Captain in the Mexican navy, lately succeeded in capturing a14 gun brig, off Campeachy, manned by seventy of the Yutecanos. Several of the Texian prisoners, after being re- leased by the Mexican government, have fallen vie- tims to the yellow fever at Vera Gruz. The American ambassador in Mexico, General Waddy Thompson. seemed to be on friendly terms with Santa Anna, a few weeks ago.

But the Maine Commissioners are said to have been 5 iinmo- vable as any four pine stumps on the disputed territory. — So Maine, under the arrangement, goes to the river St. Johns. Itis not unlikely, we learn, that the line which the Dutch arbiter decided for, the line of the St. Johns and the St. Francis, will be agreed to. But then Maine gets, what the Dutch king did not give her, the navigation ot the river, and this trebles the value of all her tall pme trees. Westwardly of the St. Francis, England takes a tract of mountain land, untimbered, and of no we value but as aboundary ; and she relinquishes to the United States Rouse’s Point, the key to Lake Champlain, and a large territory heretofore supposed to belong to New York and Vermont, but which turns out to lie north ef the 45th de- gree of latitude, and is therefore @ part of Canada.

Jackson offered to give to Maine alone, during his Administration, in the year 1832. It is thought there are questions of boundary further up, as the Secretary of State has summoned here the Com- missioners, &c. who ran the line, or endeavored to do 60, under the Treaty of Ghent (but could not always agree) from the River 8t. Lawrence to the Lake of the Woods; and it is supposed that all remaining questions, in that far- off world, will be settled. , As to the va other questions, not conuected with Voundaries, whieh are the subject of negociation, nothin isknown, ‘Brerybody is herd at work, however, and judging from men's faces, when met with in public, wo should it Is egpected that every thing will come out about right.

Datu or THe Dux D’OrtEaNs.-~—This is a strange world truly. One day all his joy, and the next is full of sadness. Last Friday the cannons of ‘* La Gomer” pealed forth in celebration of the trois jour which made the Duke d’Orleans heir to the crown of France, and yesterday, in less than twenty-four hours after, the same heavy cannon sent ferth its thunder in minute claps for the death of the same. All the vessels of war in our harbor, the merchant ships in port, and the several castles on the island, displayed the tri-color flag at half mast, on learning the melancholy intelligence. The Great Western came into port with the tri-color also at half mast. Ageneral gloom immediately pervaded the French portion of the eity, which rapidly spread, as the mi- nute guns from ‘* La Gomer” echoed and re-echoed the sad intelligence. The death of the Duke is the greatest, the se- verest cetastrophe that could happen to France. His eldest son, now, however, quite young, has be- come heir apparent by this accident, and the worst fears are entertained for the Egalité family after the departure of Louis Philippe from this world. We must wait end see. Naval General Court Martial on board of the U. 6, ship North Carolina, Saturpay, July 30. The Court nwt pursuant to adjournment, and yester- day’s proceedings were read, when the President stated that the Court was ready to hear the defence, and the cused’s counsel requested that he might be allowed to re. call Mr. Elliott end question him relative to the fact of Lieut. Wilkes having, himself, left the inscription on the box exposed to view, it being previously concealed. The Court wae cleared for deliberation, and on its re- openieg: the Judge Advocate stated that the Court de- clined to reopen the ease. ‘The accuged’s counsel then proceeded to read a defence which he had drawn up, which was a recapitulation of the principal evidence showimg how completely it dis- proved the allegation of disrespect in marking the box as charged in the first specification, as it was shown that he had altered the mark at th cer, and had declared at the time of so marking the box, that it was with the intention of his reclaiming it from the department, and it was fully proved that the accused had, instead of exposing the mark when he saw it was ex- posed, turned it towards the bulkhead to conceal it. It commented upon the testimony of Stewart, the i's clerk, and the contradiction which it hadre ceived by the testimony of Midshipman Elliott. It also commented severely on the testimony of Lieut. Wilkes and the manner in which these charges had been prefer- red against the accused, and the character which had been given the prosecutor by nearly every officer under his command, shewing the spirit by which he was actuated towards those who had offended hi Tt also referred to the attempts ich had been made to impeach the character of the accused, which had resulted in shewing that none could say he was disrespectful or in- subordinate. The accused completed the reading of the defence by his own statement of the occurrences which were the sub- ject of the charges, and which are as follows :—‘By the mission of the Court I will conclude, this my defence by my own statement of the transaction which consti- tutes my crime, as it was noted down in writing by me, immediately after its occurrence. The painter left the box when he war done marking it on the gun deck abreast the capstan, the place where all boxes delivered up under this order were deposited. A short time afterwards [ saw it there, and thinking it un- necesst to have my affairs inspected by those who might be passing, I turned the marked side against the bulkhead ‘so us to et the label out of sight. Lt. Wilkes then sent for me to hiscabin, when the following conver- sation ensued between us ;— Lr. Witxes--Did you have that box of shells marked ? Yes, sir. L1.

A: cortainly refused, sir, to purchase shells out ofthe “Currency Lass,” on account of their exhorbitant price—at least your agents did, Lt.

Price, Graham aud Morrill, counsel for prisoner to have the trial postponed to the October term, it war called up this forenoon. The accuser and the accused both appeared in cour! Suydam, although still a smart looking Tellow, beare evi denice, from his altered appearance, of having sustaine: several years proportion of cure within the lust ter mot f rd Alvear exhibits the air and grace of « well-received lady's man,” dark and well-trimmec whiskersand moustachios, aud easy bearing, ew ing tha he is atleast “well ig grace” with himself. There wa: nothing on the trial Calculated to show evidence of real cause for the attack uron him, although au important wit ness (a lady we understand) is awa: ¥, Who at is su could throw some light upon the subject. Signor d’aivees testified that he had seen Mrs. Suydam once ut the Astor House, she being pointed out to hita, but he never had any ition with her de gaiete de cour er otherwise ‘as the first witness examined. He stuted thut he was at Niblo’s one evening in September last—anc went to the bar, with two friends, to get some refresh. ment, While in the act of raising the glass, he was stabbed from behind in the mouth, his lips cut through, one of his teeth knocked out and another fractured. Feeling there must have been some mistake, hejturned suddenly round, and asked what isall this? He saw the knife raised to strike him, but he fended it off, and received asevere cut in one of his fingers. He saw Mr. Suydam lookin, very angry, anda knife fall upon the floor. ‘The blood had’ gus ed from his wounds, and he was soon unable to speak. A friend requested him togo to an upper room, when a physician was sent for and the cuts on his upper and lower lips sewed up, with'thaton his hand dressed. He continued to be an invalid tor some time, and took no sustenance for a fortnight after he had been struck, except through a small tube. In answer to questions from counsel, he stated that he had seen Mr. Suydam in August. 1840, at the Astor House, the witness being in this vicinity for the advantage of en- joying the sea air and the cool invigorating breezes of Rockaway, and of being ready for an excursion to the Springs, where he had also “tripped on the light fantas- tic toe” ‘with many of “Columbia’s fairest daughters.’ He had fuever spoken to Mr. Suydam, though he recol- lects seeing him at the Astor House. His lady was pointed out to me in passing, as Mrs. Suydam, but it was a mere coup d’wil. I never visited her in her bed-room, neither did I send any love letters to hes—nor did I procure any ‘one to doso for mo, Mr. Suydam had no eause of jealousy in regard to me for any wordsor action on my part. I suw his lady at the time I speak of, when my eye was attract- ed towards her, but { cannot say thut [have seen her since, or would ever know her, were I to meet her again. From the time of seeing Mr. S. at the Astor House in 1840, (nad not beheld him till the period of his attack upon me at Niblo’s more than a year afterwards. ‘This, with some little variation as to phraseology, was the substance of the Signor’s testimony. Mr. Harwosr, a friend of Signor d’Alvear, testified to having been present at the time of the assault. Mr. Suy- dam struck over the Signor’s right shoulder, and gave at least two or three blows with the knife, which he then dropped hastily. I followed him out of’ the bar into the street, and asked him what had induced him to commit the assault. His reply was that Signor d’Alvear had been in the bed-room with ‘his wife, and that she had gone out. He also said that he had come from South Carolina with a determination of killing the Signor, but he thanked God at he had not done so. I asked him if he felt aggrieved hy he had not challenged Signor d’Alvear. His reply was, that the Signor, from the situation he occupied, was not at liberty to accept a challenge, or he would have done so. Itold him my friend would expect to obtain sa- tisfaction forthe attack upon him, when he answered that he would be most happy to afford him any that he might desire. Dr. Carnochan was called to attend Signor d’Al- vear after he had been injured, and subsequently Drs. Mott. Post, and Watson. Dra. P. and W. testified that the wound, at first, was vefy severe. It had been struck downwards, and the knife cut through the upper lip,from the nose to the edge, and also went through the lower lip, knocking out one of the teeth and breaking another, and somewhat injuring the gums. lt was a transfixed wound and required to be sewed up, but it healed kindly, and left but little mark. This was about the whole of the story, so that the let- ters andthe bed room, and the violated sanctity of mar- ried life, and all the other things which Madam Rumor spread upon the four winds at the time of the occurrence, dwindled to a small point. Whether poor Suydam had been “put upon” by some lady folks (absent or present) or had “waked up the wrong passenger,” iis impossible to say—that something of the kind was connected with the operation seems evident,as he perfectly knew his man and seemed, “Burning with deep revenge,” to resent some serious supposed wror.g. Mr. Price stated to the Court, that there was a witness whose testimony they had hoped to procure for the sent trial, but without effect. They would be enabled to get it, and asked that it might be presented to the Courtin mitigation of penalty. Judge Burrs replied that the request appeared to be a reasonable one. The offence for which Mr. Suydam is now tried, is for committing an assault on an accredited agent from abroad, the penalty for which is imprisonment for a term not ex- exceeding three years, aud fine at the discretion of the Court. The District Attorney (who was assisted by Mr. F. B. Cutting,) read ertifieate from Hon. Daniel Webster, Secretury of Stato, showing that Signor d’Alvear is Sec- retary of Legation from the Argentine Republic to the United States. The case wi bmitted without summing up by coun- sel. The Court charged that the duty of the jury was merely to say whether or not the prisuner was guilty of the assault. ‘Thejury found him guilty, and the Court adjourned. City Intelligenee. IMPORTANT ARREST FoR Pensuny.—A few weeks since the notorious Otis Allen, who had been committed to prison for uttering counterfeit money, was taken out by his counsel on @ writ of habeas corpus before Judge Ing- lis, and a man named Isaac Walter, received as bail for his appearance in the sum of $2,000, he having justified that he was worth over $20,000 in real estate in this city and elsewhere. He represented himself in the attidavit of justification to be a master builder, and that he owne’ a house and lot in Grand street, also the house 172 Mott street, 2,500 acres of land in Herkimer county, 30 lots in Brooklyn, and various other houses and lots in this city. On this security Allen was allowed to run at large, until within a few days, when Justice Matsell having obtained another charge against him for passing a counterfeit note, he was arrested by A. M. C. and James L. Smith, and ful. ly committed to prison on Friday. In the mean time it had Deen ascertained that Walter was entirely irrespensi- ble and that he Wad committed perjury in the affidavit pre- sented to Judge Inglis in nearly all its essential points. ‘The bail being fixed in the list arrest on application to Recorder Tallmadge by a writ of habeas corpus, at $2,000, Allen in company with one of Col. Jones’deputy keepers, endeavored to obtain the necessary sureties yesterday, and while in search as was supposed, Walters, who had entered security iu the previous case, appeared in the police office and offered himself again for that pur- pose, with another aifidavit prepared, giving a list of property in Newark, N. J. and Hyde Park, in this State. Mr. Callendar immediately apprised Justice Matsell, who 6rdered him to be arrested forth- with. Affidavits were immediately obtained from the gentleman who occupies the house in Grand street, sworn to by Walter as his property, that it belonged to the Bay- ard estate, and by others, that several houses also named belonged to Dr. Simers, &c. Before searching this bare- faced villain, he presented a deed purporting to have been signed by James Eneu, seu., of Philadelphia, conveying a lotof ground, on the south side of James street, 166 feet west of Seventh street, to L. G. Davis, with $48 ground le half yearly, Some bits of sheet lead, such as are used by passers of counterieit money to roll their Dills in, were also found in one of his pockets. It ix pre- sumed that this deed is a forgery, asthe signature stands “James Eneu,” withont the addition of the senior, from whom it purports to have been a conveyance. We trust the Philadelphia police will look to this. This fellow Walter is a grate setter by trade, and, no doubt, has long been attached to the gang of counterfeiters of which Otis Allen is the organised leader. He was fully committed by Justice Matsell, and will not escape on straw bail. Allen is safely jugged, being held on an aiidavit made by O.H. Maxwell, who states that he received a $1 counter- feit bill, on the Citizens’ Bank of Nantucket, from Allen, which he passed to Thomes Edsall, on the ist of April. Maxwell is confined in prison asa witness.

In the Senate, this morning, after the passage of several bills of a private nature, and some reports from standing committees, a bill authorizing the construction of a depot for charts and instruments cf the navy, was read a third time and passed. The bill regulating enlistments in the navy and marine corps was taken up. Mr. Calhoun moved an amendment to exclude negroes and mulattoes from the service, except for stewards, cooks and servants. The amendment was resisted with much earnest. ness, but it was finally agreed to by a vote of 24 to 16. On motion of Mr. Preston, the principle was made to apply to the army as wellas navy. The bill was then laid aside and the tariff taken up, and the discussion on the details is in progress at the slowest possible rate. The house is engaged on private bills. ‘'he morn- ing business was of no public importance whatever. The indignant, and, it must be admitted, india criminate denunciation of the press, all over the country, has had its effect upon the House of Rep- resentatives, They went through the contingent appropriation bill yesterday, a piece of business that would have required at least six weeks, anytime be- fore the newspapers opened upon Congress. The length of the session has its influence to be sure, but the animadversion of the press, although unjust in some instances, has had a beneficial eflect. The Procrastination and delay have been most reprehen- sible. Congress might have finished up the busi- ness, and adjourned by the first of June ; but there™ have been difficulties and obstacles, apart from’the factious squabbles of the ultras that are not suscep- tible of explanation only with much detail. The people will regulate this matter, however; and if they permit enough of these men to get back to per- petuate the mischief, they well deserve the conse. quencesthat mustensue. . Every additional item of information that leaks out touching the terms agreed upon for the conven- tion between the agents of this country and Great Britain tends to confirm the favorable ‘opinion that has been expreseed of the result of the negociation. The navigation of the St. Johns under the stipula- tions of the treaty is of great importance—of more value really, than the sum to be paid for the land ceded to Great Britain on the north-western border of Maine. The heavy timbered lands on the St. Johns and the Aristook have been almost worthless rom the absence ot means to send the lumber to market. We have the Aristook, to be sure, but it is worth nothing without the St. John. Now we get the free navigation of the latter river and not only that, but our lumber descending the St. Johns goes to English ports free of duty. ‘his will throw open that immense timber country on the St. Johns and the Aristook, and render valuable and available, what has hitherto been locked up and useless. Some of the democratic friends of the President here, havé expressed surprise that Mr. Noah, the editor of a paper professedly friendly to the udminis- tration, should combine with the ultra Clay men in the Corporation of the city of New York, to eject Mr. Whiting, the very able and efficient District At- torney, with a view tosubstitute an avowed and in- veterate enemy of Mr. Tyler, and one of the most active of Mr. Clay’s supporters. Such a move- ment ought not to, excite any astonishment. [t is ieee keeping with whig tactics in New York. ere is neither incongruity nor unfitness in the Judge of an important Court descending from the bench to conduct a paper,nor isit at all strange or improper for the same judge to render a bold support to the administation in his paper—a support that is of no avail in any point of view, and at the same time to co-operate with the most subtle and dangerous enemies of the same administration, in every enter- prise or movement which they may suggest. The practice of carrying two faces under one hood is sanctioned by time honored usage, and nothi can be more unreasonable than to complain of it_at this time of ort If the private interest of a man demands that he should support the President in one quarter, and at the same time strive to injure him in another, is it to be expected in these degenerate days, that an considerations of principle, or consistency, or self- respect, should induce him to act fairly or honestly? The idea is preposterou: ir. Noah’s notions of ood faith coinvide precisely with those of his office olding associates in New York, who profess friend- ship to President Tyler, and at the same time assist in the Clay organization, and throw cold water on every demonstration intended to give the adminise tration honest and substantial support.

On Monday afternoon our mechanics and workingmen propose to hold a meeting in the State House yard for the purpose of expressing their grievances under the severe pressure of thetimes. None, more than myself, feels for and sympathises with the many unemployed and destitute persons of our city, Most heartily do I wish them relief; but I confess 1 see little likely to result from the proposed meeting. This is one of the few things that a combination is the leust likely remedy to effectacure of.
