The Regency question in France has been de- cided The Archbishop of Canterbury and Mrs. Howley have been ill; Dr. Howley seriously so, with some spasmodic affection. He is getting better; the lady recovered more rapidly. Lord Ashburton was expected in England on th: 1st of this month. The British Queen arrived at Cowes, in fifteen days; the Great Western, at Liverpocl, in thirteen days; and the Columbia, at the same port, in nine days and a half, from Halifax. The Great Western isto be sold, sure. The insurrection in the manufacturing and mint ing districts, having spent tts violence, was subsid. { the restoration of tranquillity was becoming At many places the disturbers of the peace retarned to work. By the thousands upon thousands engaged in the insnrrectionary movement no fire arms were used. Tn Yorkshire and Lincoln * women were among the most active of the rioters, as inthe Reign of Terror in France. The tara-out Scotland, regarded as the project for a general movement, has been a failure. Iris doubtfal whether a regular steam e@ommunica- tion between Europe and America, except by the Cunard steamships, can be sustained any longer The proprietors of wie Great Western are so deeply embarrassed by the expense incurred in keeping her em sloyed, that trey cannot, in reason, hazard their funds any further ia the prosecution of such an un- promising speculution. Taere appears to be le change in the markets. ‘The tendency of the corn market was downward, which is easily accounted for by the abundant crops. but basiness of almost every kind was improving. The Eagi: h governmeut had experienced, to the fullest extedt, the efficiency of railroads in convey- ing troops during the late disturbances in the manu- facturing districts. Since the intrusion of Quested, measures have been taken at Windsor Castle to prevent the ingress of strangers. The greatest vigilance is ordered. A shock of an earthquake had been felt in Ban- gor, North Wales, on the 29th ult. ord Charles Wellesley, second son of the Duke of Wellington, has been elected member of South Harnpshire, without op;osition. The Queen and Prince Albert had gone to Scot- land. Both were well; so were.the babies. The lad Bean has been sentenced to eighte n months imprisonment in Newgate, for attempting to snoot the Queen with a pipe stem. Itis said that the Emperor of China has fled into Tartary.

The news gave an im- petus to the cotton trade, and little doubt is enter tained here, but that as soon as American credit shall have been re-established, these treaties will tend much fo the extension of the trade and com- amerce between the two countries: In our last number we had the good fortune to furnish exelusively to the American public the fact, that the smendid sieam ship Great Wesrern, which hisso often ploughed the vest Atlaatic with such wonterfal exactitude aud regularity, was about to be withdrawn from the trade, and the company dis- solved. Subsequent circumstances fully testify the truth of our annoancement. From statements mde during the last ten days, it appears, that she is intended to pertorm ali the voyagestor which she hasbeen advertised, and then she is to be sold, to gether withthe whole of the establishment belong- tog to the company. It is reported that the concern hasbeen any ing bnta flourishing one;at the present time is indebted in a sum amounting to aearly £40,000. OF this, £215,000 are owing to their bank- ers. The building of the large iron ship belonging tothe company has been suspended, and it will re- quire about £15,000 to complete her. The subject of Atlantic steam navigation is now attracting much attention in England, and it daily becomes more evident, that no company can withstand the cost un- less bucked by government contracts, te West iindle mails are again to be tranamitted by sailing vessels. The miserable and gross mis management which has, throughout, marked the movements of the Royal Mail steamers has given exch dissatisfaction, and the complaints to Govern. ment have been so loud and frequent, that the con tract is to be broken up. An arrangement has beev gitered into for the future transmission, the particu- igre of whigh will be found in another column. shire, ( Wesr [vora Main Sreamers.—The followin - tisticsof the old and new arrangementsof the Royal West India Mail Company tor the conveyance of mails, will be found interesting and an useful the more elaborate details which we e means of placing exclusively before unet t vive had ! the public.

Exsv Iyoia Steam Navigation —The steamer India having performed her last voyage from Suez to Bombay, against the height of the monsoon, a circumstance unprecedented in the annals of navi- ¥ation, it may be interesting to compare a state- ment of that steamer’s performance on her two last voyages, the first having been made in the fair sea- son, and the second against the strengih of the monsoon. Oh her first voyage, the India left Cal- entta on the 10th of January last, and steamed to Suez in 25 days and 14 hours, runniug 4849 miles, or 1825 miles per day, consnmidg 680 tons of coal, or 7 6-10 Ib. per horse power per hour. On the se- cond voyage she left Calcuna 9th of May, and steamed 10 34 days 4658 miles against the wind, and averaging 137 miles per day, and under sail four jays, distance 5089 miles, consuming 900 tons ot 7% 1b. per horse power per hour. This result 8 important, as showing that the communica- tion by steam can be kept up with the eastern side of {India ‘at all seasons of the year. On the first voyage the Calcutta letters reached London in 46 days; the second voyage her letiers were detained 24 days in Egypt waiting conveyance.

Ls. France, The news {rom France 1s not altogether devoid of interest. ‘There were two or three warm debates both in the Chamber of Peers and Deputies, on the Regency bill, which was finally passed by both Houses in the forms as brought forward by the Min- istry. The Char have been prorogued until early in January. The King and family have taken theirquarters at Ku. The Paris papers of the 3ist ult. announce that great fears were entertained there, in high quarters, that the treaties between England and America would not be ratified The Royal ordonnance, promulgating the Regency Bill, appears in the Moniteur of Wednesd, Aletter trom St. Petersburgh, in the Augsburg Gazette, con tirms the reports in cireulation of the complete fail- ire of the Russian expedition in the Caucasus, un- Jer General Grabbe. The loss of the Russians is estimated ut 6000 soldiers and 80 officers. Austria has lowered her duties on rawcotten. The Journal Militaire publishes a circular from Marshal Soult, authorising the soldiers whose time of service ex- pires in 1843 to return to sheir homes, Admira Hugon’s squadron was expected to retura from Hy- eres to Toulon on the Ist inst. The fate of the Regency Bill in the French Cham- ber of Deputies was decided on Saturday week M. Chapuys de Montlaville moved as an amend- ment “that the Regeney be confided to the mother ofthe minor Sovereign.” Jt was rejected by a con siderable majority. Another amendment was moy- ed by M. de Sade, as follows; ‘At the close of the present reign, should the Prince, called to the throne by the declaration of the 7th August, 1830, not have accomplished the eighteenth year of his age, and until he shall have reached that age, the eldest of his paternal uncles shall be invested with the Regency.” This amendment was condemned by M. Thiers, who declared that it would compro- mise the Monarchy of July. Tie amendment was rejected. M. Odillon Barrot’s amendment, fixing the majority of the Regent at twenty-five years, was also rejected. Another amendment of M. de Tracy, limiting the nghts of the Regent, was then dismissed, amidst impatient cries from | the Conservatives at the delays of the Opposition members. An amendment ot M. Beaumont (de la Souvre,) proposing that the Regent should convoke the Chambers in twenty days, instead of forty days after the King’s death, was likewise put to the vote, and rejected; finally, the bill was put to the vote, and it was carried by a majority of 216, On the following Monday the bill was presented to the Chamber of Peers, and on Wednesday the Duke de Broglie readt~ report of the Peers’ Commission on the bill; the port opposed the main objections that had been zd against the ministerial meas ures, Count \ fe has promised to supportit. A rie oppositio , however, only was made to the bill as it camet om the Chamber of Deputies, and was ultimately passed. On the 30th ult. the Cham- bers were prorogued until the 9th January, The ordinance for the prorogatron was read in the Chamber of Peers by Marshal Soult, and in the Chamber of Deputies by the Minister of the Interi- or. The defection of M. Thiers from the Left had caused a great sensation. The acute politician saw that his rival must be victorious; he perceived that opposition on the particular question was to place himself in direct hostility to the King ; he perceived, probably, that the opposition party had nothing to offer as the reward for obduracy, that on that side there was nothing but loss; and so, in the proper aceeptation of the term, he ratéed, he left the un- stable house for the stable. _ The French squadron, under Admiral Hugon, ar. rived at Ajaccio, in Corsica, on the 13th instant.

The prospects of trade have not undergone much change since the sailing of the Caledonia. The Li- verpool cotton market has at times been rather ani- mated, but the continued unsettled state of things in many of the manufacturing towns bas militated much against it becoming firm and permanently ac- tive. Prices have receded a little during the last few days, but only let the hands at present standing out fora higher rate of wages, return to their oceu- pations, and there is not the slightest doubt, but that they willsoon rally again. Many of the Manches- ter houses have orders on hand which they are at present unable to execute, owing to the difficulty there isin getting work done. ‘The London Mo- ney Market has notduring the past fourteen days, presented any feature of striking importance.— The news from India, so far as it was known in London yesterday, had not much effect upon it.— The opinion generally being, that the French au- thorities had thrown adark coloring over it.—+Wil- son’s News Letter Sept. 3. Distukpances 1N THE Provinces.—A Special Com- mission is on the eve of being issued for the trial of the rioters apprehended during the late disturban- ces in the manulacturing districts. Nothing is want- ing but the nomination ot the learned Judges to un- dertake this arduous duty, and it is expected that his will be arranged forthwith. The last oceasion a commission being issued was for the trial of Frost and his companions, in the winter ot 1840 Lord Chief Justice Tindal, Mr. Justice Williams, and Mr. Sergeant Ludlow were the Judges then selected. The character of the recent outbreak be- ing of so much more general a nature, there is eve- ry reason to believe that a greater number will be appointed. In our last it was our painful duty to record a se- ries of the most violent popular movements in the manufacturing districts, and it is with some degree of pleasure that we have now to state that violence has almost subsided, and though in many of the ma- nufacturing towns the workmen still remain out, yet, it is gratifying to know that the quarrel now is one only between masters and men; not partaking in the least degree of a national character. The ery of the mob now is * more wages, and not the Char- ter orno work.” A number ot the poor deluded men who took a leading part in the recent disturbances have been apprehended, and it is expected that a spe- cial commision will be shortly granted for their tri al. Ibis expected that ina few days all the hands now out will return to their employment. The London and provincial papers during the past few days have been filled with matters growing out of the Queen’s visit to Scotland. She left Windsor very earlyon Monday moruisg last, and embarked at Woodwich, shortly atler seven o'clock, in the Royal George. Her departure was attended with great pomp and ceremony. She arrived at her des tination in excellent health and spirits, on Tuesday last. We have elsewhere given details upon this subject _ The trial of the lad Bean for attempting to injure tie person of the Queen, has taken place at the Cri- minal Court. Attera trial which lasted some seven or eight hours he was found guilty on one of the counts against him, and sentenced to eighteen months’ imprisonment in Newgate. Another suicide from the Monument in London has occurred. A female servant ascended, and while the parties attention was attracted elsewhere foca moment, she precipitated herself to the ground, aud was dashed to pieces.

The King went to Paris on Monday, to give audi- ence to the deputation of the Chamber of Deputies, which was to present to His Majesty the Regency law adopted by that assembly. “These presenta- tions,” says our private letter, “generally made with out any ceremony; but, on this occasion, the King, dressed in his regal robes, had taken his seat on the throne, where, surronnded by his sons, Ministers, and Aides-de-Camp, he received the bill from the hands of M. Sanzet, with whom he exchanged gracious acknowledgments.” Upwards of 200 dep- uties were present at the reception. Bours, Thursday, September 1.—There was a good deal of business done to-day in liquidation, and for the new account, but the tendency 'o ad vance has been stopped by the belief that the En- glish market will be affected by the adverse news trom India, whieh is said to have been received. The Three per cents were done, in liquidation, at 79f 25c, and for the end of the month, 79f 45c. Fives in liquidation, were done at 120f 10c, and closed for the end of the month, at 120f 45c.

Spanish, 213. ‘ pain, The Spanish correspondence of the 28d ult. con- tains the following :— The Minister of Finance makes every effort to find money, but none of the capitalists will deal even on the most exorbitant terms. The Bank of San Ferdinand refuses to advance money under 35 per cent. interest. The basis en which the government seeks to treat for 40 or 50 millions of pe is the guarantee of the produce of the mines of Almaden at the expiration of the present lease to M. Rothschild. In all other rhe eb the country is doing well, and the regency is doing all in its power to establish a good govern- ment. ape latest accounts from Madrid are of the 24th ultimo. General Aleson still had his head quarters at Leon, and the 3d battalion of Isabella marched on the 20th from La Baneza, to join the force under his command. The 3 per cents. were done at, 21} at 60 days ; the 4 per cents. at 19 at 60 days, with 3 coupons; and the 5 per cents. at 273 at 60 nays. The most contradictory reports are 1 circulation as to the state of our relations with Portugal; and some of those rumours go so far as to state a war to be imminent, but the latter idea is generally con- sidered to be absurd. The point in dispute is the non-fulfilment of the treaty for the navigation of the Tagus. Troops have, it is said, been ordered to march forwards for the frontiers of Portugal, to sup- port the claims of our ambassador at Lisbon. Rumors of ministerial changes were current in be on the 17th, but the ** Patriota” contradicts them. Portngal, The only foreign arrival we have noticed to-day is that of the Lisbon mail of the 22d inst. The pro- ceedings in the Cortes show that the ministry has a large majority there, althongh they are disuaited amonget themselves. On the score of finances, the country does not exhibit any symptoms of recovery. So long as this financial depression lasts, we must not entertain very sanguine hopes about the Tariff redactions between England and Portugal. The Portuguese commissioners cannot understand the arguments of the English merchants, that a redue- tion of one halt the duties would open the door for an immense transit-tiade in British manufactures to besmuggled across the frontier into Spain, all of which would pay duty in Portugal, if a moderate ‘Tarif were once established there. —» ‘The tariff question remained in statu quo; great difficulty was apprehended in eflecting any reduc- tion on the duty on woollen cloths, The absent Portuguese commissioner, Gomes de Castro, was expected shortly to retura to Lisbod, when it was thought that something might possibly be done The treasury was in great pecuniary difficulties, and the heads of the tobaceo contract and Confianga company at variance with the finance minister. It was reported that the Portuguese government had asked and obtained some delay in the instalment shortly due to the Pritish government on account of the expenses of Gen. Clinton’s division. ‘Tripolt Letters from this Regeney, dated the 12th, were received bythe Locust’ The new Bey has acquir- ed a certain popularity by the manner in whiclt he has liberated the. prisoners made by his predecessor, but as far as the interior administration 1s concern: he appears not to have been so‘happy. He hasattempt- ed to levy a tax of two percent upon articles of con- sumption, « thing which never yet has been known, 4 to crown the whole, he has also imposed a simi- lar tax upon articles sent forsale into the interior. ‘The country is free from internal commotion at present. Russia. All the accounts received via Germany confirm the defeat of the Russian army in Cireassia, Aceor- cording toa letter from the frontiers of Poland of the 19h ult. the great exhibition against the Lesghees. undertaken by General Grabbe, in June lust, had completely failed. The failure was ascribed to the opstinucy of the general, who, in his anxiety to sirike « great blow, declined attending to the recom: mendations of the chiefs of the friendly tribes by whom be was accompanied, and having penetrated too far into tue country, was surrounded on ali sides, and compelled todghs his way back, without being able to afford any rest to his troops, during four days and four nights, The Russians are said to have lost 6,000 inen and 80 officers in that disas- trous retreat. We find in the same Ngee eleare from Bessara- bia of the 10th ult., fully corroborating the above statement. The Circassians had captured 13 pieces of artillery, 12 of which were subsequently retaken by the Russians. The former, however, carried off the entire of the ammunition. Feur battalions and upwards of 90 officers had been put to the sword by the Circassians. _ Turkey. 9 Turxey.—Advices from Constantinople to the 20h ult. have been received. Letters had reached that capital from Trebisond stating that the Persian troops had suspended hostilities along the Turkish fronuer. The energetic sentations of the en- sof Great Britain and Russia had induced the Sehah to adopt that resolution ; there was conse- quently every hope that the difference which had risen between Persia and Turkey would be umica- bly adjusted through the mediation of those two Powers. The Porte had transmitted orders to the army on its way to jad to suspend its march. Nevertheless, letters from Erser-um mentioned that a Persian force had invaded the province of Van. South Africa, Another cloud has lowered over the brilliancy of the Briush Arms. In our present number we have not ouly to record disasters which befel our troops in India, but we have to chronicle the particulars also of a reverse in South Africa. By the arrival of pa- pers from the Cape of Good Hope, to the 18th of June, sve learn from the official report of the com- manding officer of the British troops at Port Natal, that the detachment dispatched from the Cape to suppress the outrages of the Boers of that settlement has been defeated with considerable loss. Having re- ceived an in-olent requisition to withdraw the Bri- tish troops from Port Natal, which was succeeded by the ‘ lifting” of a considerable number of cattle belonging to them, Captain Smith, of the 27th Re- giment, the officer commanding, determined to at- tack the camp of the Boers at Congella, where they had collected in great force. The insignificance of the detachment, however, as compared with the force to which it was opposed, and the non-ar- rival of the boat containing an howitzer and an ar- tillery officer in time, compelled Captain Smith to make the attempt under great disadvanta; es. These added to other casualties, compelled the British de- tachment to retire with considerable loss. The Dutch encampment was 6000 strong when the troops arrived, and afterwards obtained a reinforcemezt of 200 men. The Boers are said to be able to muster 2000 men. The chief Panda had sent to offer Captain Smith his services, which, although declined in the first instance, will now, most likely, be accepted. Other native leaders appear eens disposed to as- sist the British forces. The detachment at the dis- posal of Captain Smith consisted only of 1 subaltern, and 17 privates of the Royal Artillery; 1 subaltern, 1 sergeant and 2 privates of the Royal Sappers; 2 ca tains, 2subalterns, 5 serjeants and 100 rank and file of the 27th Regiment; and 2 mounted orderlies of the Cape Rifles. We regret to learn that Lieuten- ant Wyatt, R. A., was killed, and the two captains of the 27th severely wounded. It appears from the letters, that the encampment of the Boers is distant about three miles from the entrenchment of the troops, in a westerly direction, and that the road and approaches to the fortifications of the Dutch have mangrove trees on one side, and the water on the other. No sooner had the troops arrived at Congella than a murderous fire was poured upon them from behind these trees, not an enemy being msight. The troops puircetite fire, but of course with little effect, and the engagement lasted three quarters of an hour, when the detachment was ferced to retire, leaving two field pieces behind. syria Our advices from Syria are up to the 30th ul., only. Selim Bey, the envoy of the Sultan, was ia the in- terror with one of the Seraskier’s secretaries, col- lecting the opinions of the most influential as to the real state of their feelings as far as Omer Pacha is concerned. Opinions very materially, some, being in favor of the Pacha, othersseem desirous of being ruled by a Christian prince. i Letters trom Aleppo are not of a very pacific cha- racter.

These accounts come down, to the 22nd of June. Disease, excessive heat, scarcity of provisions, and the simoon, had deci- mated the troops; and discontent at the state of in- action in which they were kept is said to have been atits height. As was anticipated, Ukbar Khan had possessed himself of the Bala Hissar, and of the treasures that were deposited there. The Governor General had, however, left Gen. Pollock to act ac- cording te his own hfe Symptoms of mutiny had manifested themselves among the Sikhs. The accounts from Candahar are to the 1th of June, but are wholly devoid of interest. Nothing of im- portance had occurred in China. It was rumored that the Emperor had taken retuge in Tartary. The preparations for a march on Chapoo were com- pleted, but the troops remained inactive, and, ap- parently, disheartened. E The preparations for marching upon Chapoo were completed ; but the ial remained in a state of in- action, and seemed to be completely overcome by discouragement. Our position in Chir sig but little changed since we lust wrote, and r.inforcements are evidently awaited previous to making any movement of con- sequence.

Respecting the movements of Akbar Khan, we learn that he had succeeded in capturing the Balla Hissar at Ca- bool, where he had nominated himself the Wuzeer of the nominal Shahi Futtur Jung, the successor of Shah Soojah. One of the most important occurren cvs, however, is the order by the Governor-General for the formation of an army of reserve of 20,000 men, under the command of General Sir Jasper Ni- colls, the commander-in chief in India, at Sirhind, near Delhi.

Markets, Lonpow Money Marxer, Sept 2.—Consols have been done this morning at 92} for money, under the influence of the first impression produced by the teldgraphic dispatch with the Ladian and Chines news. On further considera- tion the price has since advanced to 933, and to 93 for the Account. Exchequer bills remain at 51 53, there being no change in the rate of interest, in consequence of the Bank notice of yesterday. First class commercial bills are cur- rently done at 2} per cent., and the only incident worthy of notice is that the failures amongst the corn speculators have rendered the discount houses a little more scrupu- lous about certain descriptions of paper. This is adegree of distrust that may naturally be expected to prevail until all the ramifications of the defaications are declared.— ‘There has been again avery limited amount of business in foreign bonds. Mexican have been done at $34, but are again 34, and Spanish Three per Cents at 20}. ‘As before observed, some forced sales of Mexican stock at what was regarded a considerable sacrifice in the price naturally attracted attention, and led to inquiries as to the sellers and their objects, In the result it is stated to have transpired that the sales were on account of certain par- ties, Quakers, largely embarked in the corn trade, and more largely, perhaps, engaged in corn speculatio: The inference, of course, was that Mexican stock wat crificed in order to keep up, or to raise, the prices of c in Mark-lane, where thew’ Quaker corn gentry are well known. On referring to the state of thecorn market during the week, a strong suspicion cannot fail to be ex- cited that such was the fact. All last week Mark-lane wi i ic, what with failures of corn merchants and the ed consummation ofa bounteous harvest. Pricest of wheat fell a Jong y down, even so late as Mondey lase as much as four shillings per quarter, and many demurl visages, on the Corn Exchange, were observed to fal longer still. What was to bedone in such an extremit Speculative stocks of foreign corn heavy and unsaleable nd ; bills approaching materially ; Spenletors pass ing into the “Gazette;” and prices down daily. If prices were to be rallied and strung af ; if market credit was to be bolstered up so that discount brokers might tet ee iti- ated, it was cleer that sellers must be routed from the Corn Exchange, or at least reduced toa minority by a host of buyers. To effect these important objects some read, money must be forthcoming, and to raise this only two modes were a, parent, either to sell Mexican Bonds or un- bonded corn. The latter *process would only have exas- perated the mischief, and so the sacrifice of Mexican was resolved upon as the most if not the only feasible scheme. Of this sort of stock it is well known that the speculative, and certainly not the most creditable,portion of heQuaker community are and have always been large holders, and therefore the recourse was easy and at hand. The ef- fect of these sales of Mexican stock is already parent in the Mark-lane manw@uvers of the da The “Corn Exchange report” thus records them: “ We have to note a further arrival of about 15,000, quarters foreign wheat, which, howe er, has been met by a most animated demand. The tone of the market is completely changed * * * *. All descriptions (of corn) have im- proved in value 3s. per quarter, and even 5s. higher than Scales forced off this day week.” In order fully to appre- ciate the dexterous desperation of this sort of double ope- ration, and the extent of damage voluntarily submitted to in order to accomplish by the sale of the stock of bonda an exorbitant monopoly price for the stock of grain, it is ne- cessary to remember that Mexican bonds were generally thougit to be considerably below their real value, andthe valueto which ere long they were likely to attain For one dividend upon them is due next month and already in hand, whilst a large proportion of the dividend accruing in April next is also in hand, not in Corn Exchange uc- commodation bills but in hard dollars, So much for one set of rogues in grain.

Liverroot Cortox Marxer, Aug. 26.—A large extent of business has been done this week, the demand having seen renewed with increased spirit from speculators, who have taken the lead in the market, which, as we be- fore remarked, is supported in its firmnéss by their opera- tions, Consumers have also Ss freely, consider- ing their position, many mills being still idle; but it may be inferred that they have done so in anticipation of soon heing in full activity.

Carevrra Marxer, July 4.—The Money Market, dur. ing the last month, has borne a more firm and equal as- pect than for many months preeeding. ‘The shipments to Europe, during the past month, ha not been large, which has tended to keep the rate of change on good commercial bills with documents at a more favorable rate than was anticipated in the early part of the month. s Raw Silk—Business in this staple is slack chiefly on account of the scarcity of good qualities. Fine silk would be readily bought up at our highest quotations, but such are not tobe met with. Inferior qualities are not in de- mand, and with them the market is supplied.

A great many stills are closed, and prices without improvement—say 6 to 8 annas per W- gallon L. P. Bomaay Manxet, July 19.—With the exception of cot- ton shipments to China, there is an almost suspen- piece goods and sion of business here at present. Cotton twist are entirely unsaleable—the warehouses are glutted with them, while the numerous arrivals from England daily add to the accumulated stock. There is no t whatever of any improvement in prices after the moon- soon. Cotton has advanced in price; and the holders are de- manding 112 rs per candy for Surat and Broach, and other qnalities in proportion; but we have not heard any actual purchases as yet having been made above 110. There is only a very small quantity in the place available for pur- chase, and in general t is of a most inferior quality. Opium has also advanced without any apparent grounds. We have no particulars of Ch ‘bona fide transactions above $20 rs per chest, but gambling transacti ns for time at $50 have, we are told, taken place.

We “never expected to mend the intellect of John Jones. It would be a devilish sight cheaper to make a new one out of a large dose of animal magnetism. As an instance of his simplicity, John Jones says, “Noah has the confidence of his political asso- ciates.”” Possibly he has of such associates as John Jones—but who has confidence in those who con- fide in Noah 2. Who will certify and endorse such an old mercenary Jew of the tribe of Judas Iscariot? We have supported Captain Tyler from the jump— on public principle—without regard to plunder or profit. Both John Jones and Noah only joined the cause, because they thought, like other mercenary rascals, they could pick up a few old breeches along the docks—and, like other impudent beggars, they already begin to give themselves airs and talk of their buttons. We shall teach the “King’s Fool” a leseon before we have done with him. Our support of Mr. Ty- ler’s measures depend on their utility, not on the patronage he has to give—not on the letters of the Post Office—not on the jobs of the departments.— Captain Tyler is indebted to us for an unbought, un- purchasable support—not we to him.

On this day, they pray, fast—no, few of them fast— preach—talk of morals—and explain the gospel. Will they take up the right subject? Will they preach on the wickedness of the ege?

Great’Gate at Havana.—We learn that a very heavy gale of wind.was experienced at Havana on the 4th instant. Several small Spanish vessels were sunk at the wharf, and most of the other vessels in port received more or less injury. The Catherine, from Charleston for New Orleans, was lost in the same gale, a short distance from Matanzas—vessel and cargo totally. Capt. Rose had reached Matan- zas with nothing but whathe stood in. The steam- er Natchez which left Havana on the 4th for Matan” zas, with a great many passengers, was also supposed to have been lost in the same gale, having left on the day of the gale. She had been out four days when the Colonel T. Shephard sailed, and no intel- ligence had been received of her. The barque Ra- pid, Ward, from New York, was towed into Hav na, after the gale by a steamer,dismasted and consi- derably wrecked. The gale was supposed to have been very disastrous along the coast of Cuba. In Matanzas it was equally bad. On Sunday, the 4th, an English ship, loaded with sugar, went ashore on the South shore of the Bay, and three-quarters of her cargo lost or badly damaged. A schooner and seve- ral launches sonk—sugars wet by the overflowing of the rivers—fences,trees,and small buildings blown down—the barque Velasco driven to sea, but return- ed in safety.
