NEW YORK HERALD. New York, Tuesday, September 1, 1846, News from the Army and Navy. We have received, by the last mail from the south, numerous letters from our military and na- val correspondents stationed in Camargo, New Oileans, in the Gulf Squadron, Matamoras, and other places, in possession of our forces. We give many of them on the outside of this day’s Herald. They are to a late date, and are particu- larly tull and interesting in their details. Foreign Intelligence. The Britannia isdue at Boston, to-day or to- morrow, with two weeks later intelligence from all parts of Europe. The news will probably be of an important character, certainly so far as the politics of Ireland and Fra are concerned. The advices may come in short sentences over the lighting line. Our Mexican Relations—The Peace Crisis— WHI the War Continue ? Our relations with Mexico now absorb all other questions ; itis the only qnestion of the day. The vessel now, probably, on its way from Mexi- co, with the news ofthe reception of Santa Anna nd suite at Vera Cruz,will, in a few days, be hour- lylooked for. It v ford us intelligence of high and interesting import, and the readers of the Herald will have a full and particular aecount thereof, in due season, How will the appearance of Santa Anna at Vera Cruz affect the reception of the officer from the American Commodore, with the letter of Mr. Buchanan to the Mexican Minister of Foreign Relations? To whom will the letter be handed on its arrival at the fortress of San Juan D'Viloa ? The detention of the special messenger of our government ai Pensacola ; his journey thence to New Orleans, and departure from the last place for the Brassos on the Mth only, will, certainly have prevented his arrival at Vera Crnz before the 22d Angust, by whieh time the Ex: President of Mex co will have made an entry into that city ; consequently there may be a difficulty as to who is to have the peace overture from our govern- ment Willourcommodore be allowed to send his flagof truce with the dispatch to the Mexi- will he deliver it to the commander of the fortress ? If the latter, the for- can capital, or, tress, being in the possession of the pronuncia- mento forces, the despatgh, as a matter of course, will fall into the hands of Santa Anna himself. Who, then, is to give the response to Commodore Connor ? | That isa very important consideration ; and, therefore, it is that we regard the news published | in the Washington Union of the defection of the forces in the capital as, in every respect, fortunate for the early elucidation of the way and the how, our overture to Mexico will be metby the Mexican chiefs. The news, in question, is to the 4th ult ; it foreshadows the triumphant success of the change. We take it for granted, then, that Santa Anna is, by this time, once again at the head of Mexi- | can affairs; that a new Congress is summoned ; that a more general unanimity will speedily pre- vail, and additional energy in the government in- Spire greater confidence in the whole of the peo- ple, and that che reception of the overture will be by him. Weare not unaware of the talent of Santa Auna, nor of the way in which, heretofore, he bas carried the people of Mexico with him — | He will, probably, be able to do it now. He will take his station at the helm, too, ata pericd when, | had he not been called upon to do so, President | Parades would have been placed in an awkward dilemma, pl dged ashe is, nolens volens to the continuance of the war. General Santa Anna will thus re-step into the Mexican Capital, and relieve President Paredes from an irksome responsibility ; the knowledge of which will, without doubt, have great effect in reconciling the feelings of the latter to the substitu- tion of Santa Anna for himself in the national chair, and accellerate the junction to which we alluded on the 224 ult. of the forces of each. On the subject of the reception of the dispatch, from Commodore Connor, under a flag of truce,we cannot but be pleased to be able to refer to our file of the 25h July; the Havana letter of Mentor, published on that day, from a source on which we may depend, mentions the exact event now about to happen, and which is therein stated lik +ly to remove the insurmountable barrier in the way of peace—a proposition {rom our government on the return from Santa Anna. That proposition, oddly enongh, will knock at the door of the fortress of after Santa Anna’s We are thus to assume Mr. Polk’s mvitation to open a diplomatic in- tercourse will te: ppearance within ull events be received with cour- ‘ourtesy of a Mexican. But will the Me: n government assent to the reception of, or will they send, an embassy ? And what are the terms on which Mexico is likely to make a peace, or those upon which our own government propose to base it? These are questions of considerable import- anoe, but questions which, at present, we are unable to solve. Weare under the constraining impulse, to confess, however, that, on the sub- ject of the settlement of the terms of peace, the proposal recently made public to divide Texas into two States—to give to the Mexican portion of the division a majority of the elective vote, and, therefore, a considerab!e share of the senatorial voice at Washington—will, if handled in a deli- cate way, in the commission to be appointed, go __far to make the boundary likely to be proposed, “palatable to the leading intellects of the Mexican nation. Jt will, under certain circumstances, givea voice to Mexico herself in our national Congress, and lead on to the annexation of Chi- huahua, &c. &c. But, after all, the question of peace or war must be settled instanter, and it probably will be, if Commodore Conner acts with the decision that marked his course early in May. If we are to place any reliance on the sentiments of the Loco- motor, published in the Herald, of yesterday morn- ing, Mexico is at this moment better prepared for peace than she has ever been since the annexa- tion of Texas. Mexico is now in 9 peace crisis; the next news is, therefore, anxiously looked for. Navau Movements —In our Mexican intelligence published yesterday morning, we mentioned the | late attaek on Alvarado, which proved unsuccess- ful in consequence of the want of vessels of light | draft. The steamer Spitfire, Commander J. Tat- | nail, and Vixen, Commander J. Sands, sailed on with the Sunday morning for the Gulf. With the assis- | tance of these two splendid vessels, the attack on Alvarado will be renewed, and the tewn will in- evitably be taken. Commanders Sands and Tatnall are two of our most experienced and gallant officers; and the subordinate officers are true searren and gentle- men. Commodore Perry goes out in one of the vessels to act as Vice Commodore, or second in command to Commodore Connor. Commander Nicholson go's out in the Spitfire as bearer of despatches to the Pacific squadron. He will be landed at Chagres, with his escort, and will thence cross over to Panama. As soon as Alvarado is taken, Tampico will be attacked, and finally San Juan d’Ulioa, unless the Mexican government s cept our offer of negotiation. varado will afford a g The capture of Al- eat many facilities for the attack on San Juan d’Ulloa, and should negotia- tion fail, our squadron will receive orders to take that fortress, nolens volens, as Old Rough and Ready would say. The order will be given with re- Inetance, as it is the disposition of our government to be on the most friendly terms with the Vera Cruzans; but should the war continue, the pos- sewion of San Juan d’Ullon will be necessary to us, and it must be taken. ould first conclude to ac- | | Commeret: pects of the Country. ‘This is the season when business usually com- Wade, from Belize, Honduras, the following in- | "per river steamer mences, and the country merchants make their appearance in the principal markets, but we as yetsee none of these evidences of activity usu- ally exhibited at this time. There is avery fair amount of business doing, but nothing near the extent generally realised upon the opening of the fall. We can only attribute this state of things to the changes recently made in our commercial system ; there is no other cause for the apathy which prevails so generally among the commer- cin! classes, and it is our impression that had the ta- rit? remained as it was—had there been no changes made in the financial policy of the government, there would have been a very large and profitable business done in this city this fall; as it is, with | these changes in the perspective, no one will pur- chase a single dollae’s worth more than is actually required for immediate consumption. County merchants coming into the city pur- chase vegy. cautiously, merely making up their assortments at home to work off their stock sthrough the approaching’winter, The interior is already preity wejl supplied with cotton, woollen, worsted and linen, manufactures of all sorts, and twill require fall six months consumption to use enrup. In thenfeantime,the importations into this atid other ports, under the warehousing sys- tem are large, and the quantity of goods accumu- lating for entry under the new tariff, after the Ist of Decentber next, will be increased. These goods coming into the market must have a very material and unfavorable influence upon prices, and we have not the shghtest doubt but that all kinds of foreign and domestic cotton and woollen manufactures will be cheaper next spring than they have been fora long time. ‘This deprecia- tion in price will be produced more by an over supply than by the redaction in the duty, and will have a tendency to promote speculation and over- trading, and this leads us to think that there will Le a more extensive business transacted next spring than has been realised for several years. The country is now in a very healthy and pros- perous condition, and it will be for the interest of every one to preserve this prosperity permanent- ly. We have it in our power to prevent any very great speculative movement, if we would confine | trade to its legitimate channels, but the first mo- | ment any large class of merchants commence any speculation, that moment our prosperity can date its downfall, for when the mania gets once in op- | eration, there is no limit, and it only ceases with the ruin of a large number of those engaged. There is at presen every probability of an ex- tensive speculation in cotton, before the season is over. The accounts in relation to the growing crops are so generally unfavorable,that the impression is almost universal that the yield will be below that of either of the past three years. There is no doubt but the prospect of a short crop, will lead to extensive speculations in the raw materi- al, both in this country and in Great Britain. We trust that it will not extend to any thing else, and what is more, we hope the planters will realise | the full benefit of any deficiency in the supply of | the staple. Tue Durcu Frigate Jasson—We yesterday visited this fine vessel at her berth in our harbor, nearly opposite Castle Garden, and found her a very handsome frigate of forty-four guns. She is commanded by Commodore Willenex, and man- ned by three hundred fine, well-built seamen.— Everything was in capital order, and the neatness and regularity that reigned on board indicated a ‘high state of discipline. At the time we happen- ed to be on board, Commodore Stringham paida a visit to the vessel, and was received with the customary salute. Our citizens will, we trust, extend the usval courtesies and civilities to the officers of this fine vessel. She remains here for about three weeks, and her after destination is probably the Gulf of Mexico. InreLLiceNce From Honpuras—Trapg In Ma- | WW The Robert Bruee, Capt. Wade, ar, rived this morning from Belize, Honduras, with the Observer to the Sth inst. inclusive. The following interesting article on the trade in mahogany, appears in that paper :--- {From the Belize (Hon) Observer, Aug 8} | As there has been very considerable talk regarding the staple export of Belize, mahogany, it might not be thought amits ifwe write a few words on this subject. In 1643, loug depression in the market, m after a very began gvadually to improve in price Sd to 10, till the beginning of this y denly assumed a downward tendency, and has ca considerable uneasiness in the minds of many. mary cause of the depression consisted of th stock of small wosd accumulated in the Lond erpool docks, and which, usfortunately, was held by speculators who had paid a long price for it, 0 as to be- come the sole holdersin the market, and to prevent any com ng to public sale. When money became scarce in London, doubts began to be felt that the speculators would not hold on much longer, and woula be compelled to sell at a sacrifice. This however, with the exception ofone ef the principal holders ubsconding, andthe con. sequent failure ofone or two minor holders, has not taken place ; and although those circumstances have inflicted considerable injury to the character of the market, very large seles, to the amount of nearly a mil- lion feet, eccurred in the month of May, to consumers, at good prices. 3n the Ist May, the stock in hand was The deliveries to consumers amount ti Leaving a balance of. For the most part, small trash |w: ver to have been cut. Since the Ist May, very little | wood has gone from here, only 2,470 M. having been shipped to Ist August this year, against 3.466 M. last | year ; and the greater part of this year’s shipment ar- rived prior to Ist May, very little having been shipped since Should, then, the ssles have continued as large in the following months as they were in May, the stock in the London Docks will be very much reduced. Great fears were entertained both in England and here, that there would be an enormous quantity of wood cut this year, on account of the great increase inthe number of the gangs, but this has proved quite fallacious. Some of the houres here ated the cuttings of this year as high as 144; millions ; but itis now well known that the gs will not be more than an average season, say 7428 millions; this has occurred from the number of the gangs, formerly about 70, being distributed into 130, | with no more hands than formerly were in the 70; an the new gangs having all to go to work with young raw | cattle. Nearly every one of these failed, and caused a partial failure to the old established gangs, from the want | Of the necessary number of men to get out the wood. The unprecedentedly long dry weather also caused mortali- ty and weakness in the cattle, which, with the want of manual labor, has made the season merely an avernge one. We are ourselves aware that one of the 130 gangs | consisted of a captain, carpenter, and one man, and we have learnt from good authority that halfof the foremen were incapable of doing their duty. Certainly a sufficient reason for their gang’s failure. The want of floods has delayed the wood in going as early as usual to market this year, which we think will have a good effect in England, as had it got there soon, it, together with the stock on hand, would probably have caused a further | stagnation in the market. As itis ithas allowed time for part of the old stock to move off, and give room for the new The stock on the 30th of May inthe London Docks was certainly very large; but the greater part of the ‘ood prepering at present is already sold by contract, vei y to government and to the pri pal ship-buude: e believe nearly one-half of the sea- son's cutrin is steadily growing in repute for shi nd will m aterially decrease the annual quantity sent to market for public competition.

Heavy and just complaints were also made by merchants and cutters, against the system of parties actually worth nothing, being allowed to cut ou Crown lands without paying for the tees; whilst many of them had paid very large sums fortheirgrants On the whole, we are not inclined to take such a gloomy view of the position of the Meho- gany Market as many have done. A good mahogany cutter can still go to Work and bring out an average sea son of good wood, rel] it at 50 dollars per M., and something very comfortable over; and possibly with a steady market at home, be glad that excitement of the past year is gone. rish Feom Hayti.—We learn trom Capt. Devens, of the brig Virgin, which arrived at this port on Sat- urday, that President Riche was expected to arrive Port au Prince, from Jacmel, about the 20th of August, when the new Constitution would be proclaimed, based upon the old one with some slight modifications, which the President hes promised that he will abide by. Politicwl affairs in Hayti, at the present time, are in a very tranquil state. The French government are on the most frieniiy terme with the Haytuens, and will not ac- knowledgo the independence of the Dominicans. The law by which foreign vessels were prohibited from landing @ portion of their cargo at ene port and dis- charging the remainder at another, would be annulled, a ‘0 into effect about the 25th of August.

[From the Belize Observer, July 25.] To the attention of a correspondent we are indebted for the following brief outline of the state of affairs in Guatemala:— Guatemena, loth July, 1846 This city has all the day heen ina considerable stat. of commotion, on account of the report that a conspiracy against the Government has been detected; soldiers are sted at different parts of the town and at the doors of Rouses in order to apprehend suspected individuals, Many persons have already been taken, but a great num- ber have escaped, having had timely warning thet their conspiracy had been detected ‘he conspiracy ap- peared to have been nurtured for a considerable time, and was ramified over different parts of the country. It appears to have originated with a number of youn men of respectability, and afterwards to have been joine by older heads—some, men well known as revolutionary characters ; and it is said, was organised for the purpo of overturowing Gen. Pais, who was minister ef finan and war till within a few days before its discovery. About 8 or 10 persons are already arrested; some of whoin have made full confessions, which are, however. not yet made public, but probably will be so in the course of a few days, when [ shall not fail to inform you fully onthe subiect.

Mr. Kean’s Bever- ly, we consider one of his greatest parts. The vividness of the death scene, was frightfully intense. Every throe appeared the actor’s last, und one really imagined that he was 1ooking upon the agonized death of a suicide.— Mrs. Kean’s Mrs. Beverly, was marked by the usual bea ty of that lady’s acting, but in tae last scene it was per- fectly harrowing. Her phrenzied shriek, where she ex- claims in an agony of terror and doubt, ‘‘’Tis false old man !” thrilled every heart in that vast audience, and we really believe, that ihe lady must herself have shed real tears in the intensity of the feeling Mr. and Mrs. Kean were enthusiastic greeted witha tinguished arti dis- the partof Ion by Mra.

MONEY MARKET. Monday, Aug. 31—6, P. M. Stocks improved a fraction today. Morris Canal went | up 14 per cent, Harlem \, Norwich and Worcester \. Reading fell off 14. At thejsecond board, Morris Canal went up another quarter, and closed firm at the advance. The, sales were small. The demand for Sterling Exchange this morning was rather active and the quotations closed at 834 a9 per cent premium. The demand for exchange has not been as active as it would have been had our importations come in the regular way ; but a very large portion of them go | into bond; and where they are owned abroad, no re- turns will be at present made upon them. We have no doubt but that a very large per cent of the importations of foreign manufactured goods during the next three months will be on foreign account. | The office of the Morris Canal Company has been re- | | | | | sey city, and the books of the company will be removed | to-morrow frem the Phenix Bank to the same place. This | aware of its approaching dissolution, wish to have it ex" | pire upon the spot where it received its existence. This company is ina rapid decline, and we know of no way to prevent its exploding. Its finances are ina deplora- ble condition, and it requires so much money to keep | sno one connected with its management who has any soterest in it further than to make all they can out of it, | in the way of salaries, kc. It will require at least three red and fifty thousand dollars to prolong its exist- keep it from a suddencollapse. Seventy thousand dol- lars are required to pay off the debt due to.some of the brokers in Wall street next month (September), $176,000 or rebuild the inclined planes, and $100,000 to purchase or build boats. If they can raise this sum at once, this debt can be paid, and the canal can be put ie a | pences and a small dividend onthe stock. This will make the stock worth something, which is more than can be said of it now. ing immediately, the canal must inevitably fall into the hands ef the bondholders, under the present mortgage, and the stock become entirely worthless, as it was some time since rendered by a similar operation. The princi- pal holders of Morris Canal two months since have since gold out all their stock, at a heavy loss, having no confi. dencein its ultimate value, or the ability of the company to raise the loan, under the present depressed state of the momey market. The New Orleans money market of the 2Ist inst. was very easy, and the amount of paper offering for discount ‘was so limited, and the banks have such abundant means ‘at their command, that they readily take every good piece of paper tendered. whine ‘There had been a slightly improved inquiry for Texas funds during the previous week, and holders, in conse- quence, manifested more firmn Red backs were quoted 13 to 14e ; interest notes, 144 a 153¢c ; eight per cent bonds, 17 a 18¢ ; ten per cent do, 20 a 2ic, on the dollar. The Franklin Bank of Cincinnati has declared its | fourteenth dividend ef five percent, payable to stock- holders in this city, at the Bank of America, on the Ist of September. The Bank of Missouri has deelared a dividend of 334 per cent. ‘The directors of the Erie Railroad invite proposals for the construction of 133 miles of the Erie railway, extending from Port Jervis, in Orange county, to Bing hampton, in Broome county. ‘An instalment of five dollars is also called for on each share on which the payments already made do not ex- ceed twenty dollars. ‘We annex our usual table of quotations for the prin cipal State and other stocks used for investment :— Prices oF Stocxs in oa ow Tome Maakas Rate. able.

This has been caused by the fears of a further depreciation in the market value of government stock by a further issue. It is anticipated that the gov ernment will be compelled to resort to a direct loan of a large amount. The treasury notes will answer a very good purpose, but doubts are entertained of the posai- bility of getting more than ten millions into circulation. An issue of these notes to that amount will have a very favorable effect upon the money markets, and enable the government, in the event of Congress authorizing a direct loan, to raise money upon an issue of stock, much sier and much cheaper than it could under existing circumstances. Buta very small amount of the issue of Treasury notes authorised has as yet been put into circulation, and th money markets have not therefore realised the relief an- ticipated. These issues have been put out at a nominal rate of interest, and there is very little doubt but that the whole ten millions can, with judicious management be put into circulation upon equally favorable terms’ ‘This will msure their circulation through the channels of commerce, and add so much to the currency of the country. A meeting of the shareholders in the St. Lawrence and Atlantic Company, was held at Montreal a few days sinee, wfiena report was presented from the Board of Directors. It appears that 1410 shares of the company’s stock have been subscribed for, conditionally on the works being immediately commenced. ‘The present position of the Company’s subscription list is 3,964 shares, held in Canada, 1,000 subscribed on account of future contracts for work on the road, about 650 subscribed in England by scripholders there, and 1,983 held by scripholders in Great Britain, giving a total of 7,597 shares. Of this number—the Directors regard as available for the immediate prosecution of the work, 3,964 shares held in Canada, 650 subscribed i: England, 750 of those subscribed on aecount of future contracts, making a total of 6,364shares, or £268.200. The shares held by scripholders in England, the Di- Yectors do not feel warranted intaking into account of their available means, inasmuch as these parties can re- lieve themselves of future liability by forfeiture of their first instalment. At the last meeting of proprietors, the Directors sta- | ted, that on the result of the appeal to the public then suggested, being ascertained, they would be prepared to recommend, either the immediate winding up of the un- dertaking, or its energetic prosecution ; and they say that it is now their duty, in laying the foregoing state- ment of affairs before the proprietors, to give it as their decided opinion, that it is expedient, at once, to enter upon the construction of a portion of the railroad, leay- ing it, however, to the proprietors to instruct them defi- nitively thereon. On this point the Directors remark, that independently of the English scripholders, they have ample means to construct from 50 to 60 miles of the railroad ; that this Portion of the road, would, in their opinion, be produc- tive in itself, and would enable the Directors to obtain sufficient means to complete the work to Sherbrooke, a point about 30 miles from the boundary line, and which, if once attained, the Directors feel sufficient confidence in the now awakened feeling in Montreal, and the ad- joining districts, to believe, that the additional amount required to complete this great work, will be eventually subscribed. With reference to the expenditure upon the railroad, should the proprietors resolve to proceed, the Directors propose to commence the worksat the St. Lawrence, and to complete the two sections to the Richelieu River, and thence to St. Hyacinth, as soon as possible. Imme- diately on the completion of the first, or both of these sections, the road should be opened to the public. In recommending the proprietors to resolve on com- mencing the work, with a capital at present insufficient for its completion, the Directors have been, to a certain extent, guided in their decision, by the known fact, that of all the railroads now in successful operations in New England, not one corporation commenced, with their full capital subscribed, and in the case of the railroads now in progress of construction from Portland, Boston, and New York, the .Directors have reason to believe, that the proportion of capital subscribed is much within the sum which this corporation has now at its disposal.
