He says, "it wu only an entrenchment with a pah 100 yards in rear, but had no regular stockade round it, simply a sail in some places, and in others nothing at all."

They complied with the first ; but, showing a dispeaition to evade the latter, I addressed a communteation to the alcarle. This produced the desired effect, and enabled us to re-embark our men by sundown on the 20th, after having destroyed all t the public property which we could not take on board. The property destroyed consisted of nine eleven feet eighteen., with their carriages, good guns, which were spiked, and their trunnions knocked off. A large quantity of ' ‘ T eighteen-pound shot were thrown into the river, and a quantity of camp equippage burnt. We brought off a 24- pounder gun, formerly belonging to one of the captured gun boat., with Ps bed and slide, a large quantity of copper crape and cannister, and forty large hales of excellent im ported tent plus, which I thought might be useful to the army. Orders had been issued for the organisation of a volunteer company of infantry in Mobile, and for another in Louisiana. General Taylor's negro boy was murdered near Monterey, by Mexicans, on the 2nd of Nov. The only news from Santa Fe is the capture of four or five Americans by the Mexicans. (From the Independence Ezpasitor, Nov. 28.) SANTA Fe, Oet. 21st, 1846.—0 n yesterday we obtained what we deemed pretty correct information from El Passe del Norte, that Magotfin, Dr. Connelly, Col. Owen and Glasgow, were detained there ea prisoners by the Mexican troops, and treated very respectfully, though not permitted to go to to Chihuahua or to return to Sante Fe. They had gone on in advance ot their waggons, and will tote nothing— their detention, it is supposed, will continue only until orders can be received from Chihuahua for their release. My regiment is under marching orders for Chihuahua, and would lave been off before this, had Gcl.eral Kearney net sent oral: re back to this place, after proceeding ten days on Isis march to California, requiring me to go into the Eutaw and Navajo countries, and bring both of these wars to a close before I left here. • • • • • We have made a permanent treaty with the Euttors; Major Gilpin having penetrated 150 miles into th, it country, with the companies from Jackson and Franklin counties. All the chiefs came in here, and we made a treaty which I have no doubt will be permanent. My whole regiment will march into the Navajo country immediately; the sountry lime between the Rio lei Norte and the waters flowing into the Pacific. Mier elllpfn goes up the Chimes; Lieut.-Colonel Jackson up the Puereo of the West (there being two); and myself up the Hemas. We shall doubtless go to the waters emptying in the Pacific. say 250 miles. As soon as we return we shall start with the traders to Chihuahua. Hotirsiter, Mexico, Nov. 3.—General Taylor's negro boy was murdered by two Mexicans last evening. The boy was lent pry General Taylor after corn, some distance from the camp, and while he was in the field procuring a load, two Mexicans fell upon him, armed with knives, and moat brutally murdered him on the spot. From the appearance of the wounds he must have died instantaneously. His body was found soon after by a party of soldiers who happened to spy it, partially covered with the green corn the boy had cut. The murderers were arrested this morning, and turned over by Gen. Taylor to the Alcalde of the city, to revive due punishment for the atrocious crime. They fully confessed their guilt, and were not in the least alarmed as to the ulti mate consequences. JEFFER.ON BARRACKS, Dec. 1846.—The onler for our regiment (the Mounted Riflemen) to leave for Point Isabel, was issue.' on the 31st Oet., but owing to the delay in getting clothing for the um, &c., we have not been able to get away. Within the last two weeks, however, three companies have left, and the remaining four are now about to follow. I can my nothing of our destination, more than it is generally sup posed we are destined for Tampico. The regiment is composed of as fine materials as was ever put together in any country, and, with proper dis cipline, they will make the best of troop.. The follow ing information concerning the movements of the troops may be interesting to you. Companies C and F have been in Mexico for some time. Companies 11, E, and GI le-ft a few days since, and the remaining full compan'es, A, D, H, and R, arc about to leave for New Orleans. These lest-mentioned companies will be officered as follows: Major Burbridge, commanding; let Lieut. Jones, Adjt. Captains Loring, Pope, Backentos, Tucker; Lieuts. Ewell; Van Buren, Dunean, Lindsay, Claiborn. Elliott, Davis, Morris, Palmer, Hatch and Granger. We go tolerably well armed, with the rifle and sabre. The rifle has no bayonet, which is, I think, a great defect, as the baronet is the weapon. Should we remain any Ow in New Orissa., I will write you from that pace, and 14 you know more particularly our destination. The proceedings in Congress do not appear to possess much interest. In the House of Representatives, on the 16th ult., Mr. Pollock moved a suspension of the rules to iutroduce $ reso lution instructing the committee of ways and means to bring in a bill to repeal the tariff of '46, and to re-model the tariff of '42.

It took away the hearts of the chiefe and warrior: sunk their courage. At the attack of Fort I'eddie many Coffers fell, but the body of the Cutters were neither much surprised nor intimidated by it—for it was on a flat, and the victory was over a little chief, and the Coffers even after that Used to send messengers to Umtemm and the Tamboo chiefs, saying, ' Why dou't you join us, seeing we are the victors.' But after the Amatola was broken up, the Coffers, front that day, became diiedrited, and riving up all as lost, scattered themselves in all directions. The chiefs almost immediately sent to the Tumboo chiefs, to say, that as things then stood, they had better not join them, hut remain neutral, as the Amakosas might then secrete their cattle among them till the was WO3 over." And Macomo's Coffer Messenger, who carried Colonel Johnstone's express to the Kat river, is said to hara re marked to the men, in talking about the war,—" The attack on the Ansatola was your great attack from the position you made it on, and the enemy you fought was mode up of all the °mike chiefs and their people. The attack at Fort Peddle was also great ; but the Coffers did nut think so much of it as it was nn a plain, and although hundreds of Caffers fell, the Coffers were dot very much frightened a's. it; they said, 'we will catch them in the hush.' But when you cams on us that morning early, before we could ace our hands before our eyes, and kept up such a (Wider (flre), like thunderelapr, from morning to night, and following us from ravine to ravine, and from oar crevice of the rock to another, we fled in the greatest consternation, and the chiefs could not get the men to face the enemy.

The packet-ship New York, arrived yesterday at Li v erpool, brings UP one day's later news front America. We have New York papers of the 16th ult., but their contents are unimportant. In Congress on the motion of Mr. Benton, the Committee on ABS ten- Affairs was instructed to inquire into the expedi ency of introducing a bill to increase the pay of the army in Mexico. Mr. Crittenden's resolution that " The committee on military affairs be instructed to bring in a bill u increase, luring the continuance of the present war with Memo, the pay of non-commissioned officers, mu- skims, and privates of the army of the United States, in eludour the volunteers ; and also, to provide for the granting of certificates of merit to such of them as may distinguish themselves by perso ac , of extraordinary devotion or bearing in the performance of their duty; and that those to whom such certificates are granted shall receive in virtue thereof additional pay, at the rate of -- per month, during their continuance in service," was considered.—Mr. Benton summered that the resolution ought to assume the form of a resolution of - inquiry.—Mr. Crittenden contended for the form which 'he had given as the right one. —Mr. Ben. ton moved that the committee on military affairs be in nroete-1 to inquire into the expediency of bringing in a bill, &c. engrafting Mr. C.'s resolution as the instructions). —Mr. Westcott resisted the resolution of Mr. Crittenden.— A division was bad on the amendment Ayes, 24 ; noes, 20. Whereupon the resolution, as amended into a resolution of I inquire and expediency, was adopted. In die House of Representatives the resolution offered by Garret Davis, calling on the president to furnish copies of instruction' to generals and commodores, relative to civil governments in conquered territories was discussed. Oa the motion of Mr.Hopkirui, the original resolution was modified, so situ request, instead of direct, the President to communicate his inetructioas, and thus adopted.—On the motion of Mr. Broadhead the house went into committee of the whole. A protracted debate ensued on referring the message, and the committee rose and reported progress. No movement had yet been made to procure a repeal of the last tariff, but a bill to impose a duty of 2.1 per cent. on tea and coffee would, it was said, be shortly introduced. Speaking of this, the New York Herald observes: It is barely possible that the party in congress may aella the suggestions of the executive, and lay the pro cooed duty merely for revenue, provided it is understood to be but a tempotary thing. We say barely possible, for the thing is hardly probable. Many members of the demo cratic party in both house. of congress are bitterly opposed to the least duty upon these articles, upon the almond that it would increase the cost to the consumers, and, in that ease, fell heavily upon the poorer classes. This impression will have very great influence, perhaps sufficient to pre vent the measure being adopted. It would be easier to put a duty upon coal sad iron, as the duty in that case would not, it might be argued, come so directly out of the lower classes. Nothing has yet been done in relation to this thing, and until the question is opened, and debate cornmenen, we shall be in the dark. Our impression is that neither tea nor coffee will be taxed, although we have repeatedly proved that the price to the consumers would not he enhanced, and that it is the most feasible source of revenue now at the command of the government. The corn market at New York was inactive, but no change hail occurred in prices. Freights to Liverpool had declined ; to London, however, they remained as before.

The remainder of the 6th regiment destined for service on the Frontier, upwards of 400 strong, have arrived in Table Bar. and will proceed immediately to head quarter.. The Commissariat on the Frontier is now very well spoken of, and the port towns and villages are heiillining to recover from the depression of apprehended famine. ('•,n tacts for transport are readily obtained, the contractors bearing all rieks and engaging to have supplies, wherever re. quired, at the proper time, under heavy penalties. There has been a heavy gale on the coast, and no lew than five veatela have been driven chore and wrecked in Algoa Bay. The Thunderbolt, in consequence of the heavy sea, had to east off the Sir Edward Ryan, which vessel had not reached Algae Bay when the post started. The mules and horses on board will no doubt have coffered severely. Scurvy was beginning to threaten the troops, levies, &e., on the frontier. It will be checked by the supply of vege tables already rapidly growing since the rains commenced. Private letters ►tate that the discontent among the native levies, arising from itregularity in issuing the promised rations to their families in their absence, had been in a great measure overcome. Some inquiry should be made into the conduct of the Civil Commissioner, on this head. People who do not understand their duties :should be relieved. There has been a clear breach of contract, ar.d an appareot breach of faith on the part of government, and but for the voluntary aid of pznions who:are not public servants, the consequences might have proved fatal to the whole colony. The public safety requires that such thiaga should not pus over in silence. Of all the evil qualities in such times as the present, general incapacity is the least to be tolerated. TALLOW.

The nnem of this morning publishes detailed accounts from New Zealand, which reached us, nit Mauritius, by the last Overland Mail, and appeared in this paper on Monday last. Upon that occasion we gave particulars of the attack upon a so-called stock ade in the Horokiwi Valley, and the death of Ensign Blackburn, who fell in the action. The official report of Major Last, the commanding-o ffi cer, which is ap pended, shows that our success over the natives in this' affair was very far from decisive. Speaking of what ' took place on the 6th of August, he says:— I gave orders for the advance, directing the native allies to proceed on to cover it. The first division, consisting o seven officers and 127 men of the force, made up of seamen soldiers. militia, and armed police, was under the command of Major Arney 59th Regiment. The second division, of five officers and 117 men, of similar detail, was under the command of Captain Armstrong, 99th Regiment. At shout 9 o'clock, a.m., we ascended the hill, preceded by an officer and a party of men, with tools, to cut away the wood, to fach litate our getting up. After ascending, with great difficulty, about a mile, we suddenly discovered that the enemy had established himself in a stockade, on the spur of a hill, which was not only excessively steep and precipitous upon each aide, bat so narrow in places that only a few men could proceed abreast. The stockade that was visible appeared evidently very strong, composed of heavy logs of timber placed horizontally one over another, with loopholes to fire through. Some of the enemy having appeared in front, a heavy fine was opened ou both sides ; the 7 made repeated attempts to turn our left think, but were driven back with great loss to their position. I regret to state that in theaction our loss was severe, having two killed and nine wounded, as will be seen by the annexed return. 1 particularly lament the loss of a most promising young officer, Ensign Blackburn, 99th Regiment, who was acting brigade-major, and who evinced the greatest zeal and gallantry on the occasion. The firing lasted till dark, when, finding my position unfavourable to occupy at night, I left two officers and 120 men to assist our native allies to watch the enemy, and again took up the post I had left in the morning. The enemy admitted to have lost five killed and two wounded, among the numberoae chief, named Te Cho, and Tapuke, the murderer of Richard Rush, at the Hutt. On the 9th inst., having been reinforced by a captain, subaltern, and 11 of the Royal Artillery, with two small mortars, under the direction of Captain Henderson, of that corps, I again advanced towards the position, although I found,great obstacles in using shells, from the loftiness of the trees, which intercepted our view of the enemy. We, however, succeeded in throwing a number into the stockade, and so continue,' to: harms them throughout the day. The enemy kept up a fire upon us during the whole time. His position having been thus felt and ascertained to he de fended by strong entrenchments thrown across the steep and narrow ridge of a lofty and densely wooded hill, the rebels being in rat rear, there was every reason to believe that their intention was to pour n few destructive volliea into our men as they advanced, crowded as they must have been into so narrow a place along the steep ridge, and then to fly into the woods in the rear; thus abandoning, without loss, a position which, from the want of supplies, it was impossible for them to retain for more than a few days. It did not appear expe dient to incur so large a sacrifice of life to attain a post use less in itself, and which must soon have been ours without any loss; moreover, the destruction of so many of her Ma jesty's troops, without an equivalent proportion on the part of the enemy, would have been regarded by the natives as a great victory on the side of Rangihaeta, might have pro duced a had impression on the country generally, and have destroyed the e ff ect of our previous succeases. Taking into consideration also the great want of facilities for provisioning so large a force, I at last accepted the offers made by the friendly chiefs, to permit them to remain on the ground, and locate themselves in temporary paps whilst they cleared the scrub and erected round the enemy a palisade after the Maori system of warfare, so as to cut off his means of obtaining either water or provisions, and thus either cap ture him or force him to fly from his position. In addition to the before-mentioned obstacles opposed to me, the rear of my position was suljected to constant floods; I therefore deemed it right to make arrangements for withdrawing my . force from the Horokiwi Valley to the pal of Pauhautanui and Porirua-point, leaving the native allies to carry out their owns plans, and reserving the troops fur further operations when required. Your Excellency having seen our position, and being well aware of all the difficultii s and impediments, as well's hardships to which the force under my command have been subjected, I need net dwell further in daseribing them. I cannot close this report without expressing my par ticular obligations to Major Arney, 58th Rcgt., my second in command, for the advice and assistance he at all times rendered me. To Captain Armstrong, 99th Regiment, com manding the second division ; Captain Henderson, com manding Royal Artillery; Lieutenant Elliott, 99th Regi ment, acting engineer; and to Ensign Servantes, 9Gth Regiment, interpreter to the forces, my best thanks are due. 1 must thank Capt. Stanley, of her Majesty's ship Calliope, for his assistance in forwarding the operations; I also re ceived the best aid from the officers and seamen of her Ma jesty's ships O-Iliope and Driver; Lieuts. Thorpe and Co molly, and all under their command deserve the highest praise. The wounded received the best attention Irons Dr. Galbraith, and the other medical officers under his direc tion. I have every reason to be satisfied with the esertionsof the commissariat department ; and I must not omit to men tion the meritorious conduct of Captain M'Donough, and the militia under hie command, as well as that of all the officers, non-commissioned officers, seamen, soldiers, and police force, ' employed on this occasion. It fu rther affords me pleasure and satisfaction to speak of the great service the native allies from Port Nicholson rendered me, as well as the friendly portion of the Ngatitos tribe who joined us, and beg to thank the chiefs of the several parties for the zeal and exertions of themselves and followers.—l have the honour to be Sir, your excellency's most obedient humble servant, EDWARD LAST, major 99th Regiment, commandi: if; the troops, southern division.

JAN. 7.—We had a good attendance at our market today, and a moderate supply of grain. Wheat fetched the prices of this day week, but with less life in the trade. Barley, from the small quantity offered, had an up- ward tendency. Oats and Beans may be considered the same, without any briskness on the part of the purchasers. EXETER, JAN. B.—At our market to-day we had a large attendance, and we were quite wild in price. Wheat may be noted 6s. to Bs. per qr. advance on last week's prices. Also Barley, 6s. to Bs. Oats were the turn dearer, and in all sorts of grain a good deal done. HULL, JAN. s.—At this day's market we had a fair show of English Wheat, but the growers asking too much money, we had but a limited business, at 3s. per qr. advance. The above improvement in foreign was maintained. Spring oorn partakes of theadrance in Mark•lane, but little showing. Linseed quiet, except for superior sone. Linseed Cakes slacker, owing to the continued open weather. Rapeseed and Rape Cakes unaltered. Since the foregoing was written we have received news by the Afarmion, Capt. Edwards, arrived, at 12 o'clock last night, at Liverpool, bringing papers from New York to the 18th ult. inclusive, on the evening of which she sailed. All accounts confirm the projected attack on Vera Cruz, which is to be invested by both sea and land. There appears to be more activity in the navy than in the army. Their operations may be gleaned from the following extracts : (From the New Orleans Picayune, Dec. 0.) The United Staten revenue schooner Forward. H. B. !Tones, Eso., commander, arrived yesterday from Tabsuco, rid Alvarado and Tampico. The Forward left the latter port on Friday, the 4th instant, and anchored at the S.W. Pam on the evening of the 7th, making the run in seventy two hours from Tampico. The Forward left at Tampico four gun boats, captured at Tabasco, the steam schooner Spitfire. the Nooata, and schooner Mahone, Corn. Cockney's flag being hoisted on the latter. The country will hail with pleasure the signs of ac tivity now exhibited by the squadron The Forward left Tehageo river on the 21st Nov. ; all quiet. Left at that place U. S. revenue steamer M'Lane, Captain Howard, for the purpose of blockading the maid port; officers and crew well. On the morning of the 2nd December, Corn. Perry sailed from Tampico, on an expedition not known, with the follow iag vessels of war .—Steamer Mississippi, steamer Vixen, sleep John Adams. and schooners Bonita and Petrel. Com. Conner, with the remainder of his force, will in all probabi lity remain in Tampico until a sufficient number of troops arrive to warrant his letting. The health of the Com modore, officers, and crew good. Com. Connor has hoisted his pennant on board the schooner Mahone. The steamers Undine and Mary Sum mers have arrived with troops, and expect to leave soon for more. The troops, as well as the marines, are in a perfect state of discipline, and are prepsing to hold out against a sur prise. All seems quiet The officers of the army are enjoy health, as are also the troops ; and the citizens begin to feel themselves secure since their arrival. From a correspondent we learn that the object in moving the fleet to the south is to attack, and, if practicable, take possession of the ports of Tabasco, Sinai, and Laguna. The capture of Alvarado, it is stated, will not be attempted uain until the Mutely can be made both by land endue. For this purpose a land force of 1,500 to 2,000 men is deemed necessary, as the garrison has been strongly reinforced since the last demonstration by . the fleet upon the place.

The prevailieg opinion among the well-informed officers at Tampico, he says. is that en army is to much simultaneously from that point with Gen. Tgylor's forces from Monterey, and make a combined attack upon San Luis Potosi. We arc indebted to a commercial house of this city for the Clewing extract of a letter, dated at Tampicio, Dec. 3: — "Tins city is now well garrisoned by our troops under Colonel Oates, and that gentleman is delighted with his lam quarters. The greatest activity has been carried on Eyre by the officers oz the army and nary for several days, In kttifying all the assailable rude, and we are now ready to meet all the force that Mexico can 'tend against us. The occupation of this place by our army and nary has caned the greatest alarm in Santa Anna's army at San Luis Potosi, and his troops are daily deserting. The following is from the commanding-officer at Tampico:— United States Steamer Spitfire, oil Tampico, Nov. 22nd, ...„ .. 1146 .—Sir. have the honour to report the return of the '" il n and Petrel, Lieutenant -Commanding Shaw, to this niche/age, harin t r performed the duty assigned me by your alder of the 17th instant.

B.—Our market has been very wild today; and, although there was an advance of folly se. to G. on Wheat, farmers appeared to have a general feeling that they would be able to make more money. There wu scarcely a sample of white offered under 80s., and 73e. to 78e. was given for red. Barley was quoted 3s. higher ; malting, 50s. to 55a. ; grinding, 40s. to 50s. Oats in demand, at 311. to 345. Beans, 62e. to Efie. LIVERPOOL, JAN. B.—We have some fresh arrivals from America, chiefly Flour and Indian Corn, but scarcely anything from other quarters, light contrary winds having prevailed during the put three days. Though the business for local consumption has been somewhat less active between Tuesday last and to-day, we have experienced a good demand for Wheat for Ireland, which makes an impreuton upon our now comparatively limited stocks of this grain, and with re newed speculative transactions, a slight further improvement has been realised : at the same time bonded Flour has con tinned in active request at extreme quotations for such parcels as were offered for sale. At this morning's market an ad- ranee of 2d. to 3d. per 701 b. WSJ generally realised upon Wheats, with a good steady demand for the country, as well as for shipment to Ireland and the north; there was, however, but a limited tale to millers in our immediate locality, and not much disposition to speculate, though several parcels of bonded again changed hands. Flour a trifle dearer, both free and under-lock ; of the latter sales to a fair amount were effected, and our last top quota tion of 40s. refused in considerable quantity. Both malting and grinding Barley still tending upwards in value. Malt firm at the late currency. In Beans and Peas no change from previous rates. Crate and Oatmeal dull, but without variation in prime Indian Corn moves off to a moderate extent, and the value fully maintained.

Barley is 3s. to 4s. per qr. dearer, but there is only a limited inquiry. The advisee on Oats and Shelling has checked the sale, and each is purchased on rather easier terms.

York) New Dee 17 BRIANITUFFIL—SiIIOO our review of this m arket last week, in consequence of the sudden change in the weather which occurred last Saturday, and the probability of the closing of navigation for the season, prices adv. need 124 c. in the early part of the day, and at the close of the day the market was firm. Notwithstanding the immensely large re ceipts this season, owing to the large quantities ex ported, we now find at the close of navigation, that the stock on hand is not as large as last year's, by 100,000 barrels. The stock on hand now is about 450,000 barrels unsold, and about the same quantity in store, waiting for vessels to export, most of which has been cold, for nearly a month. For corn meal there hes been I more enquiry. The groin market hubeen pretty brisk, and priers have not receded since the arrival of the Caledonia. The demand continues good. During this week there has been little done in corn, but as the stock is extremely large, the closing of navigation will hardly affect prices much—in fact, the stork of all descriptions of hreadstuffs on hand is sufficiently large to supply all demands, foreign and domestic, so that prices cannot advance a great deal. Corrox.—ln consequence of the inclemency of the wea ther, the only buyers in market were spinner,, who have taken about 600 bales to-day. Prices are steady at our in side quotations.

Dec. 17.—Thu stock market opened with the same spirit which has characterised it for the peat month or two. Prices were a shade lower at the first board, but the transactions were to some extent. At the wcond board prices experienced another decline. It has now become sadly apparent that there can be no let-up to the tightness of tho money market, the prospective operations of the sub-treasury leave no grounds for • reasonable anticipation that the apt eie clause can be removed. In the short space of fifteen days the payments must be paid in specie to and from the government ; the manufacturing business is already prostrate ; the domestic commission houses are in melancholy distress; the out-door rate of respectable notes ranges from eight to ten per cent. ; the failures constantly announced seem to indicate the same state of things which preceded the suspension of 1837. If foreign exchange has fallen, why is it ? The excess of exportation for 1846 over 181.5 scarcely exceeds 3,000,000 dais., a cum too small for the great reduction of rates. It is to other causes we must look for the depreciation. The amount of business transacted by the purchasers of domestic and foreign goods will best explain this intricate subject. The transactions are of the most limited character. The importer., feeling the effects, are much embarrassed in making their remittances. The sake at auction amount al most to • suspension. The stock market of course ham been and MUM he very materially depressed. There is a general want of confidence ; the movements of the treasury aro so essentially unsatisfac tory, leading to an apprehension of a conflict with the banks, that loans on the best description are made with difficulty, and on terms so restrictive and capricious that most holden prefer selling. We have accounts this morning from Cape Town to the ith November. Intelligence from Fort Beau; fort to 28th October announces that the hostile Kaffir and Tambookie chiefs had submitted unconditionally, and declared themselves and their people to be at the disposal of the governor. Reports that it was intended by the British to deprive them of their lands had struck them with terror, and induced the rapid submission of one chief after another. Sir Peregrine Maitland was making ar rangements for locating parties of colonial natives in the territory between the Fish River and the Keis kamma, and no time would be lost in settling, with a population that could be trusted that fine district, known as the Cheemie Basin. Such was the state of affairs on the frontier at the date of the latest advices, but though there appeared to be every prospect that the war was ended, remem bering that the Kaffirs, in 1836, effected some of their most daring forays within a few days of the prods- , mation of peace, it was considered advisable to con centrate a strong force in the neighbourhood of Block I Drift, to overawe the enemy, and if need be to enforce an unconditional submission. The South African Adrertiser, in which this intel ligence is announced, says: Since the suspension of hostilities some curious information has been obtained from individual Coffers, respecting the operations of the war. According to them, the attack on the Amatola ruined their cause. They believed those fastnesses impregnable, and they always held this up to Creili and Mamas, as a reason for their joining-in the war &emit the English. Mapusa's messenger, who came to solved peace from Sir Andnes Stockenstrom, at Shiloh, said, in the pre tence of several people—" Stock's (Stockenstrom's)attaek on HAY. -• SMITIIFIELD.—Megen.

The Bank of England averages for the week end ing the 2nd inst. show the f Bowing differences, on compa rison with those of tbe eek preceding. In the issue of notes a decrease of 183,7701., leaving the actual average issue 28,254,260/. In active circulation an increase of 402,820/. ; the total of notes out among thit public being 20,031,1751. In public deposits a decrease of 359,690/., leaving the total amount in band 9,990,624/. In private deposits an increase of 207,787/., making the total ay. rage 7,903,9591. In " other" securities, increase 416,9151.; the total average being 15,071,8201. In coin and bullion, decrease 115,1191. The average of tf•e week on hand, 11,951,572/. the "rest," on a total average of 3,464,8571., shows an increase of 22,4511. The decrease of 183,7701. in the issue of notes represents that amount of gold coin withdrawn within the week, a con. siderable proportion, if not the whole, of which constituted the shipments of specie, then going forward, by merchant vessels to New Orleans. The decrease of public deposits was the sign of the commencing quarterly dialmrsements, pro bably tor the public offices. The continued increase undt r the hind of •• other" securities is not so much an indication of wagged discounts, as of the loans usually granted freely during the ►hutting of the transfer books. These loans be come returnable to the Bank as the dividends are paid out on and after the 15th current, being the fret day of public transfer. In coin and bullion the decrease on average at the date was, at 115,1191, not of much consi deration, and was occasioned, u before noticed, chiefly by ' shipments to New Orleans. The nest returns will probably exhibit a rather larger deficiency, as they should include the more considerable amounts taken out to New York by the Iliternia steamer. The handsome addition to the rest will be a soul c 3 of gratification to the bank proprietary. Two o'Cleck.—The funds have been heavy all the morning, with Consols ruling at 931 to 3, until nearly the close of bu siness, when they became 931, buyers, and so left off: It is now well understood that some leading Hebrew capitalists have been selling stock, both here and in Paris, and that in these operations they have been followed, as usual, by their peculiar connec tions. Their partial absence from the market to-day may probably account for the little activity in business. Ex ehr quer Bills, Its. to 14e. premium. la foreign stocks we have few transactions.
