Just before the commencement of the action, Ma- yor Waddington, of the Engineers, with Lt.

For Old Pork there has been an active de- mand, at gradually improving rates; what now remains is firmly held at the advanced quotations. No really good dry Hams yet received; such would sell. Pickled Hams uasa leable. Cheese maintains the late advance; from absence of supplie* the transactions have only been to a moderate extent, Lard meets a ready sale; the arrivals are much lighter uaa was expected, and prices consequently continue to rule high. = re Some sales of Grease Butter reported at the extreme quotations; holders are very firm, and should the next ships from New York not bring supplies, prices are likely to go higher.

We beg to confirm our last advices of the 31 inst., to which we have little to add. The long prevailing wet and unsettled weather has caused great anxiety to be felt in regard to the growing crops, and a genvral dulness has pervaded trade in conse- quence, but we are glad to soy orable change took place yest y, the weather having become warm and genial, and altogether more settled in appearance. Hither- to, we do not think any injury has been done to the corn, more especially as respects wheat; and should the present fine weather continue, we consider pects in favor of ‘an abundant harvest, the breadth of land under wheat be- ing larger this season than for many years past. Very little doing in Ashes, prices of which are nominal- ly supported, im the absence of tresh supplies. Cochineal —240 ave been sold, Beotures silver 38 9d to 4s 7d, and black 5s to 5s 4d, with a few Mexican bests from 4s 2d to 4s 6d per Jb., which show a trifling lecline. We have no improvement to notice in Coffee ; consump- tion, however, would seem to be gradually increasing in this country, the deliveries to the home trade trom Ist January, having exceeded those of last year by three mil lion Ibs. There is no enquiry whatever for export, and in all the continental markets the demand is limited, not withstanding the unprecedently low scale of prices ; stocks also are accumulating. Our present quotations for sheathing Copper is 9}4 per 1b.; the market 1s dull. ‘The demand for Cotton, at Liverpool, has been extreme- ly moderate since our | d as the quantity offering has been ample, the import hed te submito « decline offi to 4d per Ib.

Dear Sir: FSR: There is little news to offer since the departure of the last steamer. The weather here has been quite wet and cold, and small ayprehensions began to be entertained for the coming crop—but yesterday and to-day ‘he funds rose under ita beneficial” influence. The cotton market is quiet, and the sales at Liver- oat have been quite moderate for the last few days. rices are without change. The business in the manufacturing Ca 13 still fair, and the late news from America has revived the hope of again receiving larger orders trom our side ef the water. The races at Ascot yesterday were not as largely attended as is often the case, in consequence of the absence of the Queen, but, notwithstanding, the show of equipages and the presence of a large num- ber ef the nobiltty and gentry, gave life and anima- tion to the scene. This day was very fine (the first fine day in weeks) and the course in good order. ‘The sweepstakes was won by Col. Peel’s Murat, with ease, beating #Elysium and Highlander. Her majesty’s plate of 100 guineas was taken by Lord Lowther’s colt, three years old, out of Silvertail, and the Mickleham Hall stakes by Lord Chester- field’s New Brighton, Several other races came off, the details of which will be found in the papers. Ata meeting on Wednesday of the proprietors of the Bank of British North America, the state of the colonies, in their business relations, was stated to be greatly depressed. ee failures were reported in Montreal, Quebec and New Brunswick, and the proprietors were compelled to pass their usual divi- dend by reason of the losses sustained in the latter cities. A diverting little episode occurred in the pro- ceedings of the Anti-Slavery Convention yester- jay. A Mr. Fuller, fron one of the northern States in our happy countiy, arese and contradicted the statements of Brother Phelps and brother Lewis ‘Tappan, and stated that a large part of the Ameri- can Abolitionisis were “little better than sheer humbugs!” This awkward customer, whom the Times de- scribes as “fa rich specimen of the genuine Yan- kee,” asserted that the northern Abolitiomsts did not trust the negroes well, or like equally, but kept them ata distance, as if their persons ought not to come between “the wind and their nobility,” at which the colored gemmen present turned up the whites ot their eyes in horror. The Repeal agitation still continues to flourish in Trelaud, where O’Connell reigns in full power and influence. The Goveroment here have changed ee tactics, and will not, it is now said, resort to orce. This is a judicious policy, and if the immense masses of Repealers who congregate do not meet with opposition, and thereby create a collision with tne anti-Repealers or Government officers, the is- sue may be yet peaceful; but | cannot see how it is possible to prevent some violent outbreak, which willehake the Green Isle to its centre, and give great trouble to Great Britain. | The Puseyite war wages hot in the ranks of the established church, and the new version of Ortho- doxy seems to gain ground rapidly. There is little stirrng here in the Literary way. In theatricals the closing of Drury Lane, and the speech of Macready are the features ot ihe week.— Although the house has been weil patronized yet Macready reviews with great severity the absurb patent law by which the monopoly of enacting the standard plays is confined to Covent Garden and Drury Lane. This works great injustice to both actors and managers I attended Drury Lane on Monday evening, on which occasion Her Majesty was preeent. ‘The little Queen looked marvetious- ly wellin health, and Prince Albert was as hand- some as ever. é = : He is a great favorite with all classes, being young, handsone and aire tempered, and having sense enough not to meddle with politics. m The Ann-Corn Law League are laboring with great zeal and effect, and I am much mistaken if Sir Robert Peel will not, before long find it indis- pensable to the maintenance of his power to defer the growing feeling against monopoly in corn. The speech of Mr. Webster is well received here im most circles,and the predictions of your friend,Gen.Green that the great interests of the British people would induce a modification of the high tariff on British ricultural products,by agreeing tothe adoption of a Jommercial Treaty,with America to be dea: tined to be realized, if the signs of the times do not dece me Lere the sock market is quite bucy- autin Wall wreet [Keep the brokers within bounds, be speculative mania be duly controlled, eee of prices will be beneficial to the feel. of the water, ax our British brethren ch more disposed to look on us with we are able to lake care of ourselves.— avor, i ‘There bas been a large failure at Bristol, in the iron trade, and more are antic ted in that depressed branch of bominess. Menere. Oakley and Ryan, the Vitnow Commissioners, have arrived ingood health They are active aad shrewd men, and will do all that can be done to accomplish the ooject of their mission. Yours truly, L Cremation ov THE Fourtn in THis City.—We are happy to ascertain, from proper authority, that there has been an appropriation voted by the Com- mon Council for the celebration of the coming Fourth of July. Both Boards have arpointed com- mittees of three; in the Board of Aldermen Messrs. Emmans, Scoles, and Lee, and in the Board of As- sistants, Messrs. Dougherty, Ward, and Nesbitt. And we are assured that theee committees will make every preparation necessary to celebrate the Nation’s birth-day in a manner worthy of New York. There will be fire-works in various parts of the city—at Castle Garden—at Niblo’s—at Washington Square—at Tompkins’ Square -et Harlem, and some other places. We are assured the celebration in this city this year will be in no respect inferior to what it has ever been in years past. Arrest or Joz Smirn, rue Mormon Propnet.— ‘We have received the following letter acquainting us of the arrest of Joe Smith, which we publish as it wae received :— Dixon, Illinois, June 23, 1843.

They are about organizing an association to be styled the ** Petitioning Society for the Amelioration of Indo leat Men”—it will be a numerous association no doubt, as this generosity of our ‘adopted Creoles” is so great as to blind their eyes as to the deserved ness of the suflerer—but after 15,000 people being hunbugged by Professor (%) Grant, what will not deceive them? — . The Mississippi riveris at the highest stage known, and from the accounts above we certainly will have an increase of water, when an inundation isinevit- able; if it should happen the loss of property will be enormous,and possibly many lives sacrificed, yet all may be prevented if cautionary measures are used, By referring to a map of the city you will ere where we have the most danger to fear: namely, just above the town oi Carrelton, where the current setting strong into the land would take a northerly course towards the lake Ponchartrain. It might be ser- viceable by the great deposit which the river water leaves, but should the river suddenly fall after the inundation, and leave so vast a body of water to the stagnating eflects of a hot broiling sun, a most fata! epidemie would result, So far our city continues very healthy ‘ There being very little of the amor patra in our southern “ north” men, no steps have been taken to celebrate the glorious Fourth of July, [t isin con emplation, | believe, among some of the volunteer military companies to visit the. watering places on (vat day, but limagine they will find am invulper- able enemy to contend with in the shape of béte or véte-rouge, (red buge,) and Texas mosquitos.

Yours, &c Dear Sir, T hasten to intorm you of the arrival in our town, this afternoon, of thefar famed Joseph Smith, who was captured this afternoon a few miles from this place by the Sheriff of Jackson county, Missouri, charged with treason against the State, advantage being taken of his absence from his strong hold, while on a visit to some of his relatives in this neighborhood. The Sheriff has been delayed a short time to await the arrival of Judge Brown of this district, who is momentarily expected to arrive, with the prifence of obtaining a writ of habeas orp, when he will probably be taken before ge Pope, if not he will be taken to Missouri, to be disposed of perhaps as the citizens may deem preset He says he 1s willing to be tried in Illinois, ut will not be taken to Missouri. ] presume he has not had a revelation lately, or he would not have been caught so far from home, where he has been easily taken by two men. The mail is just closing, andI have not time say more. 8. Navat.—A letter published in the Baltimore Pa- triot of the 29th ult. afternoon, from an officer ol the U. 8. Navy, dated Port Mahon, May 6, states that the whule Mediterranean squadron, including the Columbus, would get underway on the 7th of May, and after performing a few day’s manceuvring in fleet exercise, gunnery and seamanship, under Com. Morris, would separate in obedience to or- ders, and pursue their way as previously directed— the Congress, it is said, to Syria—the Fairfield to France and along the Italian coast,nnd thence up the Adriatic to Athens and Smyrna—the Columbus to France and Brazil—the Delaware to Gibraltar, Cadiz and Lisbon—and the Preble to Tunis, Tripoli, Algiers, Gibraltar, and thence to Port Mahon, to receive the sick now in the hospital—then to rejoin Com. Morrie at Gibraltar, Cadiz or Lisbon. to arrival of the brig Henrietta, Capt. Farrell, we have received advices 'o ihe 16th inst. inclusive. Our files of the “ E} Liberal,” contain nothing of much importance. Belew we give the letter from our correspondent, which gives a synopsis of all the interesting events that have taken place :— Puxrto Capg.xo, June 16, 1843. Dear Sir :— ‘ ‘The French corvette of war ‘‘ Huron,” arrived on 14th inst. from the Windward Islands, and sailed next day ; her destination | did not know. & lt was “rumored” in town, that the American schooner “‘ October,” which, sailed from this port for Baltimore on the 6th instant, run upon “ Bird’s Island” in the night, a few hours atter leaving this port, and sustaining thereby censiderable injury, was obliged to go into Curacoa to repair; and also, that a considerable jart of her cargo was damaged, which consisted principally of coffee and afew hides. Business goes on * smoothly” in this quarter, and recent advices from the United States have tended to enliven the spirits of many, whose minds had become quite “agitated” awaiting future events, which they anticipate would not result tavorable to their interests ; commercial affairs having taken a propitious turn in Europe and America, we hope soon to fee! the happy effects of the revival of trade in thiscountry. The American bark ‘* Anita,” of Boston, Captain Judah P. Baker, arrived here via Laguyra, on the 12th instant; this vessel has been “taken up” by a merchant ia Laguayra to proceed to Hamburg, with his family and other passengers ; she willsail in a day or two for that place via Saint Thomas. Good luck to Capt. Baker, may he have a pleasant passuge, he is a a fine fellow, and de- servesa ‘good breeze.” Pray tell me, Mr. Ben- nett, are there as many office-seekers as usual about the White House at Washington ? ‘It so, please mention to Captain Tyler, that one of them cau be located in a moft beautiful place on this coast, called Choroni, a port much frequented, and requires a consul there, and 1. ami fully satisfied thatthe * pick- ings,” or * fees,” would more than recompense the lucky fellow who should feel the “little responsi- bility” upon the sheulders ; whalers otten cali there, and of course they will require a certificate, duly authenticated by the official seal, to prove that ‘* so muny whales have been harpooned.” ‘This is im- portant and deserving your serious attention. No American vessel, with the exception ot the ** Anita,” in port. Yours in haste. City Intelligence. Suppen DeatH.—A Frenchman, named Adolph Petit, about 36 years of age, while chatting with a boon com- panion over a glass of claret wine, on Friday evening last, fell from his chair on the floor and expired in amo, ment. Physicians were sent for, but they pronounced it beyond their sKill to restore the vital spark. ‘Che deceas- ed was a ship carpenter, but latterly had not worked at histrade. He was a sober,quiet man, who, with his wife, Rose Petit, managed to live very comfortably on the mo- derate profits ofa small wine shop or caberet, at No. 190 William street. Up to the moment of his sudden death he was in the enjoyment of excellent health and spirits. An inquest was held, endthe jury returned a verdict of apo- plexy. Anotnen Case.—-An inquest was also held on the bedy of the young printer, James Madden, who fell through the open hatch of the premi No. 122 Fulton stre: the third story, where he was employed, to the first floor, striking his head against the combings of the third story hatchway in his descent, on Wednesday moriing last. He was sentto the Hospital, and continued sensible until Friday evening, when he became insensible, and died during the night. A ost mortem examination was made, it was ascertained that the right lobe ofthe cere- bellum was very much inflamed, the pica mater was soft- ened, and injected upon the brain, which produced death. Verdict, that the deceased came to his death from injuries received, by falling from the third storythrough the hatch. way on the premises No. 122 Fulton street, striking his head against the combings of the second story, Sreatinc a Coat.—A colored man, named George Smith, while prowling about the Howard House, stole a frock coat worth $10 frem one of the waiters named James Scott, also colored. ‘The coat was und on bis back in a porter house in Chapel, near Anthony street, and he ‘wastully committed to anawer. VioLent Assautt.—A stevedore named Thomas Mor" gan, of desperate appearance, and mos: ruffianty exterior, while unloading a ship at pier No. 10 Bast River, made most brutal attack on an uncffending cartman, whose name we learn is Henry Marshall, and so roughly han- died him, even when Marshall wason the ground, and at his complete merey, that he now lies ina very dangerous situation, confined to his bed. Marshall’s friends upplied at the Police Ottice, and a warrant was placed inthe Bands of officer Stolkely, who arrested him. He would have showed fight, but the determined character of the otticer cooled the courage ofthe bully. Justice Merritt held the fellow to bail in the sum of $500 to take his trial at the next Court of General S: Death Resvttinc rom Accipent —-Yesterday the Coroner held an ingest at the City Hospitel, on the body of Michael Sullivan, who on Thursday last fell into the hold of the ship ' Caspiun,” while dischar ing her cargo of tobacco, the particulars ef which accident were pub- lished in the Herald of Friday. He lingered until 11 e’clock on the following night, having been insensible the whole time. A post mortem examination was made, | and the liver was found very extensively lacerated, and | there was also a slight effusion of the brain between the | scull and the dura mater, which was the cause of his | death. Verdict, that the deceased came to his death by | injuries received by falling accidentally into the hold of | the ship Cashian, on the 29th ult. Dearn From Exaaustion.— An unknown man was | found en Friday night, at the corner of Hudson and Spring | Streets, in a slate of apparent intoxication. He was re- moved to the Third District Watch House, on the corner of Wooster and Spring streets, where he died about mid- night. Doetors Pennell Hasbrouck were in attend. ance, and pronounced the cause of death to be exhaustion, probably superindueed by intemperance.

There is not in our country more varied or picturesque views than are to befound on the East River and on Long Island Sound, between Hurlgate and Bridgeport. The numerous islands and bays, and the points of land stretching from the main and from panes ind, with the fort at Thregg’s Neck, and the light-houses and beacons in the Neck, at Sand’s Point, Captain’s Island, Norwalk, Eaton’s Neck, Black Rock, &c., give interest tothe scene, while thehun- dreds of vessels constantly passing snd repassing add va- riety and life not to be found in any ether pleasure excur- sion of similarextent. The jlow price at which tickets may be procured, will no doubt bean inducement to many strangers to embrace the pena, offered, while the old; triends of Captain Fitch will not fail to take a little mutual enjoyment with mutual sofety. 0@- FRANKLIN SALT WATER BATHS, CASTLE Garden.—The number of ladies and gentlemen who fly from the overwhelming and debilitating heat of the city to the Franklin Baths, exceed all previon asons.—— From before sunrise, until long after the closing shades of night, the current of all ages and sexes flows on in rapid succession, We never saw a public institution so admi- rably condueted in both branches, or so deserving of the universal patronage it enjoys. shag ssa GG THE PREPARATIONS THAT ARE MAKING at Peale’s New York Museum to celebrate the Fourth, are onthe most mognificent scale.

The news from abroad is highly faverable to American interests. All the commercial letters concur iu stating thet a great feeling of reaction exists in favor of Americem credit. Prices had gone up a great deal and there was no dis ion to sell American stocks. Some exten: sive sales of Illinois stock had been made in London on account of a well known and eminent house in Well street, by whom they had been taken for debt. The price was 28, which, with the exchange, is equal to 31. The market, being Saturday, did not display much ani- mation, but the feeling was much better.gOhio 6’s rose 4 ; Kentucky, } ; Illinois fell ; Harlem at yesterdays rates At the New Board Ohio rose } ; Illinois fell } ; Ken- tucky rose } ; U. States 6's fell }. We annex the following regulations for the transfer of stock for the benefit of foreign holders, although we de notknow why so much ceremuny is thrown in the way of transfers:— The following Rales relating to the transfer of Ohio State Stocks, ut the Jransfer Office, in New York, have been tee tw and will not be departed from in any instance. 1. All Powers of Attorney for the transfer of Stock or the collection of interest, must be acknowled by the party executing them, or proved by the subscribing wit- esses thereto, before some one of the following officers: 1.

If executed within this State, before a judge of seme court of record, (except justices’ courts and other local courts in cities,) a Supreme Court Commissioner, a com- misioner of deeds, or a justice of the peace of any town. Il. In case of the decease of a stockholder a transfer of stock must be made either by his executor or adminis- trator, or by the person to whom such stock hi vised, or who by the laws of t! stockholder resided at the time ed to the ownership thereof, er who, the right to take possession ef such stoek. IL. Where the steckholder wes a resident of this State th, an exemplified eopy ef the letters or of the administration, or a cer- tificute under the hand and seal of a surrogate, thi letters have been issued and are in fuil fore be | lodged by the executor, or administrator in the transfer office, previous to a transfer of the stock. The transter | is then to be made subject to the preceding regulations. 'V. Incase the stockholder, atthe time of his desth, ‘was a resident of any other State in the United States, his executor or administrator must, in like manner, produce an exemplified copy of the letters of administration, or the letters testamentary, or a certificate of the fact of such letters having been issued whose office the aud seal, if there be |, under hi accompanied by a certiticate- of the Governor of such State, under its seal, that the cer tificate or certified copy is given by the proper otticer and is in due form. It the applicant claims tne stock as devisee, or as having succeeded to the rights of the hold. er, he must produce the decision of some competent tri. bural to that effect, duly exemplified and accompa ied by the certificate of the Governor of such State, under its seal, thet the decree or judgment was rendered by the proper tribunal, and that the copy is certified oy the pro- per officer, and is in due form, V. In case the stockholder, at the time of his death, Was aresident of any foreign country, the person claim- ing the right to direct the transfer of such stock, must produce the evidence ot such right as follows: 1. the cloima as executor or administrater, or a¢ ha ing been appointed to take charge of the personal estate of such deceased stocklolder, he must produc: copy of the instrument giving him such authority, duly exeiapli- fied under the hand aud seal (ifthere me) ot the otticer from whose office the original wa: issued, accom panied by the certificate of one of the officers, enumerated in regula- tion No. 1, o1 by the certificate of a consular agent of the United States in such beste? to the effect the officer ranting such authority had jurisdiction of the subject by the laws of such country, and that tne exemplified copy is by the proper officer and in due form, 2.

The state of affairs was much bettur. Money was more abundant. than at the date of the last packet. There had been a scarcity of what are deemed good bills by the lvading dis- count houses, and the rate on first class paper cannot be quoted above two per cent.
