Another Supplemental Sheet. z ‘The intelligence from Europe, the description of tue celebration yesterday, and the proceed- ings of the Episcopal Convention, compel us to issue another supplement this morning. It will contain the continuation of the case of Mr. and Mrs. Lynde; an interesting article re- lative to Dempster, the vocalist ; the Scouting Expeditions of the Texas Rangers; an account of a revolver for Major Polk ; a letg@r from Bos- ton; Sporting Intelligence ; Law Intelligence ; Police Intelligence ; Brooklyn Intelltgence ; miscellaneous items; and several columns of advertisements, which are well worth reading. | The supplement is served free to city sub- acribers. i a pt oe ‘The Episcepal Convention. We have in type a full report of the proceed- inge of this body yesterday; but, notwithstand- ing that we iesue a supplement to our regular edition of the Hera/d this morning, the great influx of foreign news, the report ot the laying of the corner stone of the Washington Monu- Sinént.dec , &e ,&e , precludes its insertion in our columns to-day. It will positively appear to- morrow, News from Kurope—Continuation of the Com. mercial Revul of the Panic, By the arrival of the steamship Cambria, at Boston, from Liverpool, we have sixteen days Jater intelligence from all parts of Europe. The news is exceedingly important and interesting, and ina commercial point of view rather ofan un- favorable character. So far as we can judge from the telegraphic despatches received trom Boston, there has been no material alteration in the mar- kets. Indian corn has slightly advanced, and an active demand existed just previous to the de- parture of the steamer. This, in the face of the embarrassments in the London money market, and the numerous failures in the principal mar- kets of England, is indicative of a permanent im- provement in prices, and an active demand. We hardly expected such a movement at this early day, after all that has been reported relative to the harvests of kugland. Accounts from this country, regarding’ supplies likely to go forward, have had a very material influence upon prices for breadstuffs in British markets, but the reports which have recently been made here, relative to reduced receipts and advancing rates must have a favorable effect upon prices in Eu- rope. It appears by advices received by the Cambria, that for some time previous to her de- parture, the receipts of breadstuffs from the United States had been exceedingly large; this will’soon cease; recent shipments from this side have been limited, and our next account from Europe, will tell a different story about this mat- ter. Whatever anticipations have been formed in England, relative to full supplies of breadstufis from the United States during the winter, they are doomed to disappointment. We shal! want nearly every barrel of flour and bushel of grain for our own consumption, that we shall re- ceive from this time to the opening of navi- gation in the spring. This country is full of produce; the Western States are literally run- ning over; but we cannot get at it; the farmers are holding on to their crops for better prices, and in a few weeks the cold weather will put a veto upon all further transportation from the in- in Pugland f long time previous to the cent exploston. The failure of Harmon & Co., some six months since, alarmed many ; but that house wes not alone; at that time there were hun- dreds of other houses, standing equally high, rest- ing upon a yoleano of equal magnitude, which has since burst upon the world with equal ‘effect. There is, without much doubt, many more left of the some sort, but they cannot stand long the difficulties which must be pressing so heavily | upon them; there must be a clean sweep of these insolvent concerns from existence, and the com- mercial world will be vastly benefitted by it; trade will hereafter be more healthy; credits es- tablished upon a sounder basis, and a more le- | gitimate course be pursued by all engaged in commercial pursuits. It is fortunate for this country that these fail- ures occurred at this time; they could not have taken place at a period when we should have been in amore favorable position. It enables us to guard against those difficulties which would have been experienced, hed our principal ex- porting season been further advanced, and gives us the power of establishing a system of credits of our own, that will save us against future losses, and place us more independent of Great Britain, and Europe generally, than we have ever yet beer. Brother Jonathan and John Bull will soon change places. Jonathan has been a very duti- ful boy, but he cannot be kept in leading strings any longer. We shall see sights, in a few years, that wil make the whole of Europe tremble. Arrival of Tae Sourmenner.—-This fine steamer arrived this morning from Charleston. She left that port on Saturday last. She is very punctual and regular in her movements. Tue Faencu Steamea Missount.—This fine French steamer arrived about 9 o'clock yesterday morning, at her wharf, having laid the previous night off Sandy Hook, where she was detained on Monday evening by a fog. The Missouri left Cherbourg on the 1st instant at two o'clock, A.M. The five first days of her passage were quite favorable,but on the 6th inst. at sun rise,a westerly breeze set in very strong, and in two hours after, the gale became so severe that from that moment till the 9th after san set, she was scarcely atle to make more than two hundred miles. The Missouri passed through the gale nobly, receiving no damage save some injuries to her wheel house, and some ludicrous accidents, such as the cow being sum- marily ejected} from her stall; but little work, however, was made for the carpenter. The cargo brought by the Missouri is very large. Be- side this, the Tad 10 passengors_90 first "Zabiae and 71 steerage. The bags were also very well filled with letters and newspapers. The former royal mail agent of the Missouri, M. Banste, has been changed, and M. De Rouville bas taken his place. M. de Soais, the chief steward, has also left,and his place is filled by M. Lefebre, to whom we are indebted for our and the news from France. but a few deys to remain in New York; she sails again on the 24th for Havre direct; ving been entirely finished, and ready in tuture to receive the transatlantic steamers of Messrs. Heroult & de Handel. We have already mentioned that several arrests took place in France, consequence of the discovery of frauds committed in the furnishing of the steamers witn coal. Some custom house officers. who had aided ih them, were also arrested. This explains the deficiency in coal which has ocourred two voyages, and on the present voyage the declares he had only 800 instead ef 1000 tons in his bunkers, and on this account he did not use as much as he wished, and to this fact at- tributes their 18 days 2.

In the event of the destruction of the potato crop in Europe being more extensive than anti- cipated, the demand for Indian corn must be large. That there are many who fear auch a re- sult in England, is pretty clearly demonstrated by the improvement in quotations for corn, and the upward tendency of prices of breadstufts generally at the latest hour on the 5th inst. The annexed quotations show the comparative posi- tion of prices on the day of departure of the last two steamers from Liverpool :— Qvorations ron Barapsturss in Liverroov. it 19, Oct. 5, Per Hibernia. Per Cambria. 2860300 2802286 This shows an advance of four shillings in Indian corn, and the markets closed firm at the quotations for other descriptions of breadstuffs, with an upward tendency. This gives some hope for favorable accounts by the next steamer, and those interested will look for her arrival with the most intense anxiety. The Liverpool cotton market continued very much depressed, and very little hope was enter- tained of any immediate improvement. In view of the condition of the manufacturing classes in Great Britain, we could hardly have expected anything different. It is fortunate for the plan- ters that the last crop was short, and the one now coming to market is likely to be below an average. It would be well for holders of this staple on this side, to'abandon all hope of any im- mediate advance in §prices, and make up their minds to hold on, if possible, for better times. We must encourage our own manufactures in every way, and make up, by our own industry, the deficiency caused by the embarassments and difficulties under which the manufacurers of Great Britain are laboring. The number of failures in Great Britain for the fortnight previous to the sailing of the Cam- bria was large, and the amount of liabilities greater than those of the same number of houses reported by any previous arrival. The annexed list comprises all we have been able to gather from our despatches :-— Faiunes in Gneat Barrain, Co. + Glasgow. - Manchester. Alison, Cum! Murray, J.&M.....

In this particular we are exceedingly fortunate, and can look upon the destruction going on so rapidly in Europe with much more indifference than we otherwise cou.d. With our usual enterprise we shall turn the ruin which has overtaken so many concerns in England, to a good account; step in and se- eure the trade they have been compelled to abandon, and make it a profitable source of pub- lic and private revenue. ‘The commercial classes of Great Britain must bein a horrible condition. It is astounding what a number of concerns, which have for years been doing an immense business, have been able to sustain their credit and keep above board, when they have been complete shells; their substance all gone, and even worse—bank- | rupt for immense amounts.

The price | of breadstuffa has gradually, but steadily, re- | trograded—the only article which has preserv- | ed its firmness being Indian corn. A slackened | demand has, of course, materially centributed to | this result, but this cause must be regarded as merely temporary. At the London Corn Ex- change yesterday, the arrivals of English grain were small, owing to which, and the unusually | large attendanoe of purchasers, the demand was | somewhat active at an advance of from two shillings per quarter upon the previous Monday’s | quotations. Notwithstanding the large supplies | again brought forward, an average amount of | business was done, and the market closed firmly. THE COTTON MARKET.

The prices | of cotton since our last advices have, it will be | observed, seriously receded; a circumstance in- | disputably resulting from the aggravated condi- | tion of the money market, and the consequent improbability, save in the rarest instances, of obtaining accommodation. The universal panic which has seized upon tlte manufacturers, and the total extinction of every thing like speculative effort in the lower qualities, particularly the decline, is more se- verely felt, and operations, since the arrival of the Caledonia, have been of the most limited | character. The sales forthe week, ending the st instant, were about 21,000 bales; of which 800 only were on speculation, and 2000 for ex- port. On Saturday, the 2d instant, the sales were about 3000, and yesterday 4000 were dis- proportioned to the supply. THE PROVISION MARKET.

FINANCIAL APPAIRS. The fearful condition of mercantile and mone- tary affairs recorded in our last summary, and then ,rapidly culminating to a point of distress and derangement rarely reached by the organs of commercial vision, has within the last fort- night become vividly developed in all its dis- astrous réality. One after another, has failure followed npon failure, each one vibrating throughout every avenue of trade and industry in its gloomy consequences, affecting those who but for their unfortunate connexion with the defaulter could have withstood the shock of the commercial storm. Of the numerous causes to which this dreary state of things is assignable, the most palpable appears to be the mi regulation of the money power, a system originating with the Bank ot England, and eagerly imitated by all other money lenders, whereby gold has become too dear to buy, and accommodationa phantom. The reflex of a system so fatal to the prosperity of trade has been deeply felt, alike by the merchant and manufacturer, and the attestations of its conse- quences can be found in harrowing abundance | counts announce her (stiles safety. | England. posed of, all the consumers’ speculation being | entirely suspended; and the demand being dis- | factory, The failures during the past fortnight may be enumerated as foliows :— Coekerell & Co., London, £60,000. Perkins, Schleisser & Mullens,g£260,000. Fry, Griffiths & Co.; amount of liabilities not | ascertained. | Lyall Brothers & Co., £400,000. Samuel Phillips & Co., £150,000. | Cockburn & Co., M. L. Bensusan & Co., Alex. | McDonald & Co., and Jno. Shewell & Co., all of London, whose liabilities also have not been ascertained accurately. In Manchester the failures and stoppages are, Burts, Watson & Co., Alfred Armstrong, James Guest & Co., Stocks & Tait, Edward Potter & Co., Render & Milner, and E. M. Broadhurst. In Liverpool we have to notice the suspension | of W. Steel & Co., Lake, Calron & Co., J. & M. | Murray, Wm. Atherton, Watson, Brothers & | Co, W.& J. Tomlinson, and £. & P. Parry, whose liabilities are estimated at upwards of a million sterling. Six or seven houses in Glasgow, including the | firm of Reid, Robertson & Co., have yielded to | the pressure, the last named of which chiefly | falls on Manchester. An earlier failure, omitted | to be noticed, is that of Allison, Comberlege & | Co., whose liabilities reach £600,000; and we have also to add the suspension of E. M. Ceoper and H. H. Glover. During the whole of the past week the Eng- | lish funds underwent a remarkable fluctuation. ‘Thursday was one of the heaviest days that had been experienced. On Friday it was announ- | ced that the Bank of England would, for the present, discontinue altogether its advances on stock and exchequer bills, the rate of which had the day before been raised from 5 to 5} per cent. An intimation was also given, that the rate of discount for first class paper would henceforth be 54 per cent, for bills not having more than fifteen days to run; 6 per cent for bills not over two months date, and 64 for all beyond that pe- riod. A decline was the immediate conse- quence, and the market closed heavily. On Saturday, considerable anxiety was mani- fested, which gradually wore away towards the close ; no failure of any importance being an- nounced. To 2 e’clock yesterday matters had beenin a very uneasy state. For money, censols com- menced at 84, after which sales were effected at 833 for account; the highest price after open- ing was 85}, and subsequently 847. Ioreign se- urities had diminished in value, and a very small amount of business had been transacted. GENERAL INTELLIGENCE. Parliament will be convened on the 14th imst., but not for the despatch of business. The Macedonian frigate, Com. De Kay, was very near being lost off the coast of Scotland on the 14th September. She escaped with loss of jib, fore-topmast, staysail, fore-topsail, and other sails, and with great difficulty reached an an- chorage under Arran Island. Subsequent ac- Doctor Wiseman has arrived from Rome, charged with private despatches for Lord John Russell. The doctor has been permitted to as- sume the title of Archbishop of Westminster, which is regarded as the prelude to the estab- lishment of Roman Catholic hierarchy in A desperate conflict has feksn Diane in the Malay seas, between H. M. ship Nemises, and eleven piratical prahns, in which the latter were deleuted with the loss of 300 in killed and wounded. The loss on the part of the British was three men killed, and five wounded. 5 The news by the overland mail from India, just received, is generally unimportant. Trade was firm at Calcutta, but Hong Kong was alto- gether ata stand still. : y ‘there had been some slight disturbances at Canton, but they were suppressed by the English authorities. 2 i et Asiatic cholera is making fearful ravages in Russia, and in consequence of its sppearanceiét Warsaw, the Emperor had deterred his visit to | Poland—a circumstance not to be regretted by the people of that country. vi Active preparations are] making in Switzer- land tor suppressing the Sunderbon by force of urms. A sanguinary civil war is apprehended Messrs. w the house in London, But as it is not ex that they have independent capital to any extent, and as the present suspension has been caused ir want of punctuality, there is little room to hope that the event be mit by any thing that may transpire from that side. It may be added that notwithstanding | which has been felt in some quarters merally been held in much esteem; since, sitting ‘aside the undue extension of business, to which we have alluded, they are believed never to have mixed in speculations of any kind. This, however, rather adds to the apprehe that may be enter- tained, as to the ultimate liquidation; since there can be little doudt that, from the feeling entertained for Mr Le Fever, any reasonable assistance would have been at his command, if the difficulties of his house could have been clearly shown to be and good management, might hay Fuatnen Extensive Faron strong, cotton merchant, Mai Merebant Liverpool ; .

The corn market displayed considerable, though unlooked for, activity; and prices, upfto this moment, have a decided tendency to ascend. Some purchases of Western flour have already been made at 28s. per barrel. Wheat is also firm, and Indian corn was in demand at an ad- vance. _ 7 The cotton transactions of this morning are of the most languid character—in short, witnout the slightest disposition to a reaction. ‘ The respectable house of Wm. Maury, which is announced in the Times to have suspended payment, did not come to a stand-still. There was merely a suspension of some hours’ exist- ence, which has ceased, Mr. Maury being now actively engaged in ordinary operations. Telegraphic Despatch, No. 2. Boston, Oot. 19—Night, The following is taken from the London Times of the Sth inst. This has been one of the most extraordinary days ever witnossed in the Stock Exchange, owing tothe way in which they have been taken by surprise. The parties called upon to repay loans to the bank upon a8 ible renewal of which they had calculated up to the 14th Oct. have been compelled to with stock and exchequer bills at prices, and the dealers seeing their jon, and ipating moreover, to some extent in nic, havemadetheirownterms. Hencest one time,wh! quotation of consuls for money was 83}¢, the price for the scoount was 64}4. the difference being equivalent to the rate of interest of 36 per cent. per annum.

From this point, a general demand for money set in, and the pressure lually increased until the price went to 634. Towards the close of the day, however, another rally took place, and they left off at 64 to 84%. For the account, is began at 84% to 865 34, whence they declined to 844, the flaal quotation being 64%, Buyers. Exchequer Bills during one Ror, tion of the morning were almost unsaleable. The first quotation was 20 to 10s discount. and they were after- wards sold at 27s discount. | Im these, however, as well asin consols, some reaction took place, and the last price was 26s to 20s discdunt. Bank stoek left off at 190 to 193 ; India stock, 229 to 297, and India bonds 30s to 208 discount.

Everett, the American Minister to China, SPECIAL DESPATCHES FROM PARIS, MADRID, ATHENS, BERNE, ROME, AND CONSTANTINOPLE, TO THE NEW YORK HERALD. de. dio, Ser The French mail m ship Missouri, Capt. Morin, arrived early yesterday morning from Cherbourg, France, whence she sailed on the 1st instant. The intelligence by her is eleven days later than that previously received. It is very interesting to the commercial com- munity. There have been several more extensive fail- ures in England. Among the number we notice the name of Cockerell & Co. for a very large sum. The most painful intelligence by this steamer is the death of the Hon. Alexander H. Everett, the American Commissioner to China. Hedied in Canton on the 29th of June. He had only ar- rived in that city afew days, with his family previous, to take possession of a new house. There is little or no news from Portugal. Our last arrivals from Italy bring no news of importance, though they make known the cause of the riot which recently took place at Bologna. The commotion, it appears, arose out of the nomination of the officers of the National Guard. Marshal Soult has been nominated Marshal- General of France. The Fomento of Barcelona, of the 19th, pre- tends that negotiations for a commercial treaty between Spain and England are so far advanced that the draft of a treaty has been drawn up. It has been announced that many of the Rus- sian foreign diplomatists have been called to St. Petersburg. We now learn that the Prince of Prussia will also proceed to that capital imme- diately on his return from the Rhine. This warrants a belief that some affairs of importance are about to be discussed at St. Petersburg. Almost whatever interest attaches to the con- tents of the Overland Mail just arrived, with dates from China to the 29th of July, belongs to the intelligence from beyond the Straits of Ma- lacca. In China everything appears to be assum- ing aa unsatistactory aspect. Sir John Davis obviously understands neither what is due to Great Britain nor to China, but persists in a course which we know not how to designate with courtesy. The Madrid journals of the 23d, are received. The semi-offictal journal the Correo, referring to some observations made by the progresista jour- nals on the stay of General Narvaez at Madrid, says that his non-return to Paris must in nowise be considered as showing a want of loyalty and obedience to her Majesty. Madame Albertazzi, the favorite vocalist, died at her residence in St. John’s Wood, aged 35. Her health, which had been declining for a long time, ended in a rapid consumption. OUR SPECIAL DESPATCHES, France, Panis, Sept. 29, 1847. Eprtor or tHe N. Y. Heraco:— The state of this capital, and the political attitude of the Cabinct of the Tuillerivs, remain, absolutely what they were at the date of our last despatches. M. Gui- aot, who has so long held the office of minister of foreign affairs, now takes, in addition, the title of president of the council, which is the chief of the ministry, or pre- mior,as it is called. This event has created little inte- rest and no surprise Marshal Soult, who has, for so many years held the office of President, rendered it a sineoure. He scarcely ever attended a meeting of the Cabinet, and mingled little in politics of late years. He was, therefore, only the nominal chief of the ministry, ite real head being M. Guizot. Now, M. Guisot is, as in- Geed he ought to be, both nominal and real head of the cabinet. Marshal Soult, who isin his 80th year, retires to pass his latter days in repose, having acquired acon- siderable fortune, which, with his title, he leaves to his eldest son, the Marquis of Dalmatia, who has figured in diplomacy. Another ofthe Marshals of the Empire is dead within the last two weeks Marshal Oudine’,, Duke of Begsio, held en illustrious place in the war’xng annals of the Republic, the consulate and the &v pire. He held the office,during his latter days, cf Governor of the Hotel des Invalides, where he died. His f*ineral is about to be solemnized with the greatest pom, His re- mains will be deposited beside those of bys‘ ijlustrious master, Napoleon. in the vaults of the Cho'pel of the In- valides, and bis statue is ordered to br, placed in the historic galiery of Versailles. Sic trang ,¢ gloria mundi. A considerable sensation and ® sha’sp polemic among the journals have been produced by the nomination cf the Duke D’Aumale, the third Warviving son of Louis Philippe, to the post of Governor General of the French colony in Africa, The opposition, of every shade, is up in arms against this appointment, as being most impoli- tic and unconstitutional. Impolitic it is, use it de- prives the army of one of tread men to whioh ite distin. guished officers would nat ly look, and confers on a boy of five and twenty, what should be the reward of howd of meritorious service and hard fought campaigas. noonstitutional it is held to be, because one so near the throne as @ son of the sovereign, can never be made eae, responsible to the State for his administra- jon of the ovluny. The practice of England isappealed to, where the princes of the blood are not advanced to high and responsible stations. Jt is true the case of the Duke of York may be mentioned, but it is exceptionsi, and net st all likely to be tolerated again. The reform movement goes on in the departments, Banquets are given in all the chief places, where the io. telliger and respectability of the country ecolleqt in aes imbers. Speeches are spoken and toasta “rank, and all the usual popular manifestations made, it is « strong mark of the great unpopularity of Lov,i, Philippe that his health hee not been drank at any ‘of these meet- ings, nor, indeed, bas bis name, or Vat of his family: tnesn Fratton and England, cotaezecas mee Oe a an cor which brought about the ‘slenteent Saetags ook continues; uoF i it likely to ogee, s0 long as the present cabinet continues in offles, Anything which would bird 1 syd M.
