Narrative of Commocore Perry’s Voyage from Napa-Kiang to Jeddo—Delivery of hls Credentials to the Imperial Princes—A Japanese Governor’s Visit to the Susque- hannah— His Inquirics Relative to the Pro- gress of the Pacific Railroad—Opinions of the London Press—The Americans in China. We bave already announced the return of Commodore Perry's expedition from Japan. The expedition left Jeddo on the 17th of August, the Comma ore having succeeded in obtaining an interview ‘with two princes of the empire, and had delivered the Letter from the President of the United States, as also his Own credentials. [t was arranged that as the subject matter required the @ousideration of the Emperor and the great ministers of State, an answer should be called for next spring. The Governar of the Japanese province of Uraga visited the Susquebannah, and was very inquisitive. He seemed to know a great deal about America, and even made inqui- ties respecting the progress of the Isthmus railread. The Londom imes correspondent surmises that when Commodore Perry returns he will find forts erected to give bim a hostile, instead of a friendly reception. The Americans in China have requested Commodore Berry to station a ship at Canton or Whampsa. The Mis- Gissippi is at present there; the Susquehanna at Macao, @ud the Saratoga at Shanghae. The following interesting account of the movements @f the Expedition is from the North China Mail of Au gust Lth:— THE UNITED STATES EXPEDITION TO JAPAN. We are enabled to give the tollowing authentic particu- Lacs of Commodore Perry’s expedition to Japan:— ‘The squadron, consisting of the steam frigates Susque- Baanah and Mississippi, aad the sloops-of-war Plymouth gui Sarstogs, railed’ from the barbor 0: Napa kiang, in Leochoo, on the 2d of July. Ou the morning of the Sth, fhey made Caye Idzu, near the southern. entrance of the Bay of Jeddo, and, sailing direetly up the bay, anchored | fin the afternoon off the town of Uraga, more than a mile Beyond the former anchorage of the Morrison avd Colum- Bus. The appearance of the st anmers—the first ever seen | in Japanese waters—with the other vessels in tow, moving | with alt sails furled, at the rate of nine or ten knots sn Bour appeared to produce conriderable sensation among | the Japanese, and all the trading junks, with which the Pay was crowded, carefully kept out of their way. ‘As the vessels were coming to anchor, two Pockets were fired into the air from a battery Sile distant, but apparently ax a signal, and not Gen of hostility. Several government boats immediately Came off, and endeavored to put on board the vessel the | Gxual notification to foreigners, warning them to depart. They wore not received, however, and the deputy governor | Of Uraga, who was the omly person allowed to ceme on | Board, was notified that if the Japarese authorities cn- | Gesvored to surround the ships with the usual cordon of “pats, it would lead to very serious consequences. A few | ts, nevertheless, lingered around the Susquehannah; | t the sight of some warlike preparat ons satisfied them | at Commodore Perry was in earnest, and they quirkly Fired.

Nev | ertheless, the Imperial government, unwilling to confound | the mdividual with the cause, has just author.zed me to come to an understanding with you, M. le Miaistre, on | the liberation of Martin Koszta, and his conveyance | to America, and to settle the terms of the arrangement relative to it, in accordance with the offer which you pre- viously made to me. For that purpose Koszta will take | his passage at Smyrna, under the surveillance of our con- | sular authorities respectively, on board a vessel of- war of the United States; ov, in defwult of that, on board one of the American merchant ships which frequently toush at | season at the said port, ani at the moment when it | tails for America directly, without touching at any inter- | mediate port, except in case of @ serious casualty or any other accident at sea.

I was in ¢rror in’ supposing that the French steamer would sail from Smyrna on Friday. As the day of her departure is the loth, (this day,) audes there is not sufficient time to prepare this morbing the necessary instructions for the respective consulates, I propose to send a special messen- er to Smyrra by the Austrian steamer on Monday, and hope that it will be convenient to your Excelleuey to prepare, in the meantime, the instructions judged neces- tary for the Austrian consulate. In concluding, I am happy to be able to express the opinion that my government will find, in the readiness with which his Imperial Majesty the Emperor of Austria has been pleased to accede te the arrangement proposed, and, permit me to add, in the conciliating course pursue by your Excellency during this disagreeable affair, a vei gratifying proof of the aueable disposition and the mod. eration of the Austrian government and of its function- aries; and I hope that the points of diference still exist- ing between the two governments will be arranged in a manner entirely compatible with the dignity anc honor of th.

The American papers which have just arrived contain’ a very lengthy, and, we will not deny, a very interesting divlomatic correspondence between the Chevalicr Hulse. mann, charge d'affaires of bis Majesty the Emperor of Austria at Warhington, and Mr. W.

The Goveraor of Urega was not Beeeived by kim, as not being of equal rank, and all the | previous and subsequent negotiations with the Japanese were carried on through the officers of the Commodore's Gia? and Commander Buchanan, of the Susqueharnah. ‘The Governor and Deputy Governor of Uraga, with the interpreters and attendants, after the interview were aeated to trip in the Susquehannah, where they wit- mes-ed for the first time the perforinance of the steam- @ugine. After leaving them at Uraga, the squadron stood Boreas the bay towards the eastern shore, and then pro: pint reached by the Mississippi, about ten goiles above Uraga.

Tunspay, Oct. 18—Two o’cLooK The advices received from the Continent this morning are considered to be of a decidedly warlike character, although the confirmation of the reports in cireulation yesterday is rtillwsnting. The fact of the appointment of Prince Paskiewitch to the chief command of the Rus sian army of the Danubian Provinces is now considerad accurate, and is taken as an indication that the Czar in- tends no retrograde movement, notwithstanding the pa- cific speeches until the last,day or two put into his mouth by his creatures, The statement that the French govern ment has removed the restriction hitherto imposed upon the unofficial journals in the discussion of Eastern poli- ties, is regarded as showing clearly that the French government has given up the idea that any injury to the cause of peace is likely ‘o accrue from the freest ventila- tien of the subject—that, indeed, there is no longer any probability that hostilities can be avoided. The market for public securities has been very steady this moroing, notwitstanding the nature of the intelli- gerce received. Coveols for money have been done at 917; to 9134, and for the account 9124 aX. The market is, however, fintter, in consequence of the receipt of a telegraphic despatch, purporting to give the answer of Prince Gortschikoff to the summons to evacuate the Prin- cipalities. Consols are therefore quoted at the lower figure of 911, $%, both for money and the account; the Three per Cents Reduced 907; a 34. and the Three-and-a- Quarter per Cents at 927; to 34.

BROWN, SHIPLEY AND CO.’S CIRCULAR. ‘LiveRPoor, Oct. 18, 1853, Notwithstanding the turn out of nearly all the mills at Preston, the sales of cotton for three days, from Satur- duy to to-day, amount to 21,000 bales, at the full prices of last week; some improvement is reported in Manchester, ae our market has shown steadiness, but no animation to-day. ‘The corn market has been active to-day at an advance of 2d. per bushel in wheat, and 1s. a 1s.

BRruapstvrs.—A good business has beon done in flour atan advance of 1s, Wheat has been largely taken at the extreme quotations advised last mail. Spoculators are quiet, but consumers are supplying themselves freely. Indian corn is dull, and sales can only be made at a de- cline of 2s. per 480'Ibs. *—The demand has been fully maintained this week, the rales of the two days reaching 14,000 bales, 4,500 being on speculation or for export; and prices, stim- ulated by the unfavorable reports of the growing crop, have again advanced 1-16d. per 1b. for all grades of clean or fair stapled American. The closing of the mills at Preston, &c., has not had time to show its effect om this market, but in Manchester it has led to slightly dearer rates for the description of cloth chiefly manufactured there, and, indeed, made the market altogether rather steadier. ANTHONY, DORR AND CO.’S CIRCULAR. Lonpon, Ost. 18, 1853. Since the date of our last the money market has been easier, and best short bills are now taken at 4% per cent. ‘The market is, however, uncertain, and, with the excep ticn of short first clase paper, 4i:counts are with difeulty obtained even at 1 per cent above the enrrent rate. The payment of the dividend moneys (as usual at this season) ard the temporary favorable turn in the exchanges, made money easier at the moment; but the exchanges are de- cidedly flatter, and tkis, with the continued demand, will }roduce a further stringency The Bank of England will vrobably again increase itt minimum rate at its next meeting. The Bank of France has increased its rate of discount to 4 per cent. The changes this moath in the Bank of France are important; a decrease of £2,890,000 in the bullion; an increase of about £3,400,000 in the dis- counts. The money market in France is at present much easier than that of England, although the demand upon the Bank of France for bullion has, within the month, been even greater than that upon the Bank of Fugland, Upon the Continent, generally, the rate of money has in- creased with the demand hero. j In the political world ot Europe there has been a great | deal of agitation éur ng the past fortnight, and there is | every reason to expect that Turkey and Russia will come to blows. Englard and France must sustain Turkey. The effect of war itself will hardly be more onerous upon the general interests, than the apprehensions and uncer- taizties which have existed for several months past. The trade of a barbaroas country like Rassia is of little importance to England: she imports from England only about £1.0(0,000 sterling, while Turkey imports from England £3,000,000 sterling per annum, and the United | States of America, with one-third the population of Rus- sia, imports about twenty times as much. The interesta, therefore, of England and every other civilized country, lig in thé extinction of the iniguitons and paralysing des: potism of Rursig, whose aggressive stremgth is probably greatly overrated. There is reason to think and to hope that war itself will be less prejudicial than has been hitherto supposed. Business bas been extended this yonr, but engagemonts are runving off, and the principal ground of apprehension igthat England will require a considerable amountoof bread- stuffs thix winter. ‘The tendency of the bread-stull mar- ket has been decidedly downwerds until within a faw days; prolonged wet weather, unfavorable for planting, aow sustains thera. If fair weather should again prevail, it is probable that bread-stufls will not see a much higher price, although the majority of opinions incline the other way. The tendency of the cotton market is downwards, in consequence of the diminished dex and for merchandise. Lard is without Rico.less doing. In quercitron bark The metal markets are steady. Scotch pig iron is firm at 64s, Lead maintains its price, Tin has advanced 6s, per cwt. Spelter is nominal at £21 5s. American securities continue dull of sale. At the pre- sent moment the United States markets are better for them than the Fnglish, not because of diminished conf- dence in them, so much as from the general curtailment which is going on. Specie continues to flow in freely, and the bank returns last week, for the first time in five’ months, exhibited a slight increase. Exchanges having «ince become unfa- Yorablegit is feared that money cannot at present acu mulate in the Bank of England.

It is not the rates, though high, that cause so much inconvenience as the sear- city; large number of vessels could obtain these or enhane- ed rates.

I cannot forbear expressing to you, on this occasion, my deep regret in losing your valuable services in the management of the canals. That you have discharged with warked fidelity your duty as canal superiatendent ali who have had occasion to do business on the canal will beat witness. You have been dismissed from the service of the State, not kecause you have been unfaithful to your trust, for no such charge is even vile’ but be- cause you have exercised the right which ix due to every citizen, however humble his position, of thinki&g and act- ing for himself upon all political questions. While this act of proscription on the part of a majority of the Canal Board is deserviag of tae seyerest censure, aod cannot fail to prove detrimental to the public inter- ests, I deem tt my cuty to recommend the course 1 have suggested, without raising the question of the right of the Board to remove without cause, that no obstacle may be thrown in the way of the forwarders and boatmen, in consejuence of the collision that might ozeur if you should resist thetr right to your place.

My last, per Black Warrior, via Mobile, I have to confirm by subsequent iavestigation and observation. The convention to be signed, and ready for fermal announcement in the month of February next, will provide that slavery, so called, shall cease in the year 1890, and be merged entirely in the apprentice system, or forced voluntary labor, which will come into effect after the fashion of the treatment dealt out under the blessings of benevolence to the “eman- cipados”’—horrors undreamed of under the institution ‘of slavery as it now exists in Cuba, to be legalized by those civilized powers for perpetuity, that cannot be broken by the chained white serfs of Cuba. This system, under enlightened benevolence or philanthropy, has proved destructive to British West India interests, and here there can be no check placed that will be effective for the protection of the negro, when entitled to freedom; and his service toa hard master will end only when he is unfit for it and likely to besome a burthen to the proprictor. The quantity of negroes that will be introduced is not to be limited, and rapine and murder will hunt the no- gro in his’ African home in increased proportion to the facility and immunity from all accountability that will be secured to those occupied in the iniquitous traffic. The same now takes place with the Asiatics that are brought here by British as well as Spanish ¢om- panies—deception, fraud, and violence are exercised to induce and compel emigration. The African cam have no better fate.

The American acting con- sul has done his duty—his whole duty; he has left no effort untried for their relief, but it has been of no apparent use, either with the Department at Washington or with the authorities here.
