Thursday .. Friday... Saturday . Totabe cise. eo secvascceed Ob 455 Strange to say, the cases and deaths have again increased for the last week, according to the re- ports of the Board of Mealih, though it is most cer- tain the disease has decreased. For the previous week, the total number of cases reported by the Sanitary Committee was 838, deaths 314. The fol- lowing table will exhibit the progress of the disease under their truth-teliing bulletins, for the last three weeks :— S83 Hts sia Kees 204 Thus, the cholera, aceording to the reports of the Board of Heulth, is steadily increasing ; while, according to the City Inspector, it is declining; yet their reports do not meet, though they more closely epproximate for the last week than they have done for any previous week. ‘The approximation would have been etill closer if there had been any reports of the Board of Health from Blackwell's, Randall’s and Waia’s Islands. For instance, there have been 12 fatal cases on Randall’s Island tor the last week; inthe Alms House and Penitentiary, 17 deaths; an Ward’s Island, there were 37 deaths, from all diceases, last week. The following table will show the difference of the two sets of reports from the beginning :— Citr Lwseneron. Deeths. Wreekending June 2.

The report of the last week's mortality bears us out in that opinion; and we may hope fora further diminution at the end of the current week. Subjoined is is the average num- ber of deaths per day for each week, from the eommencement of the disease :— Wek batty, Week Daily Badi erage.

It is worthy of remark that the general mortality je also less than in the previous week. The fol- lowing table will compare the general mortality for the three corresponding weeks of 1848, and the three last wecke:— 1948. ending. 1849. Deaths.

This is a very remarkable dispanty, showing that there is some deadly agency at work in th stomach or bowels—whether firet inhaled from the atmosphere through the lungs, or taken into the stomach in food or drink—a mortality that even the deaths under the head of “ cholera” do not a count for. Let us, therefore, turn to the other diseases of the bowels, distinguiehed by the phy- ticians from Asiatie cholera:— Cholera morbus . . Cholera infantam, Diaithow. . . Dyventery.. —Laecanhoeae Total. seaee 2 Add cholera. teens Total. .... ses O16 Vere, ther, independently of ammation of the stomach and bowels, there is the hage tota] of 916 sudden deaths by disorders of these intes- tines, leaving for deaths by all ether disenses, only abalance of 357. It will be seen that more than one half of the mortality is among those who ate rot natives of thin country—the numbers being Boatives of tho United States... . Natives cfether countric ppp Ps ‘The natives of Irelond, a8 riwual, form @ large proportion of the deaths, being nearly one-third of the entire number. In reference to the expected inerease of deaths by cholera, this week, in the City Inspector's re- port, it arose from the fact that a greater number of daily reports carae to him, in conseqnense of rome of the cemeteries being closed in the city, anda greater number of funerals leaving New York for cemteries outside vf it. The intermente in the city tite only reported weekly; the inter ments that take place out of it, while the deaths yoen jn the city, are reported daily. Tais would give, of course, a daily increase ot fane- tala having the city, bat would effect, at the end @f the week, a corresponding redactien of the ine terments within its preeimeta.

Madame Laborde’s Concert-—Vissatisfaction and Disturbance. Mownrawar, Aug, 4, 1819, At Madame Laborde’s Concert, last night, there was avery large attendance of the British, who, in the course’ of the evening, demanded their national song of“ God save the Queen,” which, not being in the pro* gtamme of the evening’s performances, Madame La- Dorpe neglected to comply with, singing ouly those songs previonsly advertised. This giving dissatisfuc- tion to her British visiters, they procured a number og bugles, on whieh they played it in procession, The re- sult was a disturbance, which fortunately terminated without anything serious occurring.

Wasutneron, August 3, 1949. The Musquito Coast Question. England has long been known as one of the most insidious nations in the world, pursuing eon- | tinuouely and steadfastly a course calculated to | extend her dominions and power by every means. | We have seen proofs of this in her East India history; but we have also evidences of it much | nearer home, and under circumstances which ren- | der it a matter of necessity that we should inter- | tere and suppress it. We allude to her conduet in | the case of the Moequito country. The Mosquito | coast is highly valuable and important. Taken | unto view with the Cube coast, it commands, in a | great measure, if not wholly, the Gulf of Mexico, | and itis no doubt principally upon this accoun ; | that England is so anxious to possess it. As she could have no direct right t# the country, she has | attempted to introduce her Indian policy, and, no | doubt, hopes to be equally successful. She has | become an ally of Mosquito, and has taken that {country under her particular — protection.— | Mort percons are familiar with the course she has | pursued in getting possession of an ignorant cross, | breed Indian boy, taking lum to Kingston, Ja- | maica, and there crowning him as “ King of | Mosquito.” ‘This solemn farce was deemed ne- cessary to hide her real ebject—the possession of the country. This boy-king—ludicrously though truthfully represented as a dranken, besotted In- dian, dressed up ina gold-luced British unitorm, and having for his court a modey crowd of naked Indians, neyroes and huif breed+—is aupported by Engiand, given plenty ef fat pork and whiskey, and leaves all the ‘cares ot Sate” to the British | agent there, whois kind enough to relieve him | trom them. ‘These things, we repeat, ave well | knowa, and 1 is upon such © state of things that ‘she has the unblushing effeoutery to rest her | claims to obtain the exe usive pravileges of settling | inthe country, cutting mahoy wy and establisnung: trading how i.e, iorts and tortiications, it iv, perhaps, not geueraily kaown, that the State of Nicaragua has tracted with © ciuzens of this country, fly residents of } York, for the eonstruch Nicaragua to the naviga portion of the | Joha’s river, withthe view of waving an u outlet to the ocean, Such ws, however, ti and itis in Consequeace of Una, we supp the British Consul at New York has beea iasteuct- ed, by his government, to uierm cae * New York and New Osleans Steam Navigation Company,” as he styles it, that they will not be perauteed to build a store at Grey Towa, upon the St. Joha’s river, upon the plea that it will be an interference with the rights of her Britamuic M yeety’s aily, the cross breed Indian boy atoresaid, Evea if the course En, sl to the Mosquito coast, were not i in the present imsianee, outrage; but kaowing all being fully aware that the * Mosqeito Kew mere puppet in the hiads of iegliad, aw ran w ta caoal trom Lake St. a aad who, even if he were not, has no right to forbid the a navigation of the river—there eau ing on the subject—that of ung and unmeasured contempt.

This country con never consent to any Luropean power obtuiamg a fresh foothold on this coatinent; and even Wit should be necessary to forcibly prevent it upon such grounds would be both patriot . and popular. We have reeson to believe the ad- ministration has taken a decided stand on this ,; question, and is fully resolved to maintain our national honor at all hazards. No reply has, as yet, been received to our pres test ogainst the interference of England in the af- fairs of Mosquito, and we therefore infer that Mr. Consul Barelay is acting upon former instructions. Of course, England will select a higher official than a consul to communicate with this govern- ment; but whatever her decision in the case may be, whatever game ehe choose to play, an end muet, and will be, pes to her insidious designs, even if it should be necessary to drive both her and her ‘ noble ally” away by force. Our national honor and our self respect demand it, and the country may reet assured that, under this adminis» tration, neither will be tarnished. oO. Wasuineton, August 2, 1849. The Recall of Mr. Clifford, the American Mumis ter to Mexico It is stated that Mr. Clifford has been recalled | from his position as Minister to Mexico. We | have little doubt but what the rumor is correet. Mr. Clifford's connection with the “ protocol” | would be an amply sufficient cause for his remo- | val, independent of the consideration that he per- tists in holding to the opinion that it is a part and parcel of the treaty—a view utterly repudiated by the present administration. We have reason to believe that the Mexican government intend to make an effort to have the subject of the protocol brought before Congress this winter, and unless a decided stand is taken, it may lead to serious embarrasement. The last administration, m order | to try and eereen the unwarrantable conduct of | the commissioners to Mexico, took the gro | that the protocel merely explained oe kv mons of the treaty ; and upon this hypothesis Mr. Rosas, | the Mexiean Minister at Washington, founded his | argument that the Eimpreaaario grants, ice., were conceded by the treaty. ‘The present administra+ | tion takes precisely opposite ground—that the proe | tocol is net a binding document, has never ratified b Mr. Olifford’s own eelf- sve induced hii to resign; bat, in of that deliceey on hia part, there no hesitation in at ence removing him. ernor Letcher, of Kentacky, will, most y, be appointed to the mission. . | te hineinbsinpblalianastone | Our Baltimore Correspondence. j Barrons, Auguat 8, 1849. + Day of Festing, §¢.--A Real Cholera Breedey mmulation of Sentence—Pighting the Che~ lera— Ea tensive Sanitary Arrangements, He. Yesterday, the day eet apart by the President for fasting, humiliation, and prayer, was universally kept as a holiday, by our citizens. The chureh bells were ruag in the morning, and ail the good people went to church, presenting quite reapectable congregations.

In fact, af the malariact cholera is ia the atmosphere of Baltimore, it be bound torhow itself before Moaday morning: thoogh, if we had all attended to our Lasimesses yesterday, it might have been fought off sull longer.
