THIS DAY, Fou► o'Clock. At a Court of Directors held yesterday at the East India House, Lieut.-Gen. Sir George Henry Frederick Berkeley, ECM., eras appointed Commander-is.chief of the e o, eompany's forces ono M Madras establishment. We have received pape rs from the Cape of Good Rope to the 28 th of July, bat they communicate notng important from the colonial frontier. The 91st Regt was ordered to Waterloo Bay, from Graham's Town, and troops from Cape Town had proceeded, in her Majestys steamer Rosamond, for Buffalo Bay. A minute of finances for 1848 had been pre- Doted the goverment to the legislative eosi n-, oil, in which Sir Henry Pottinger gives a rapid sketch of the state of the revenue, and of numerous alterations and additions in the civil, police, and judicial establishments, chiefly with a view to the more speedy and effectual administration of justice throughout the colony, which the large fend constantly increasing revenue enables him to undertake, and pro vide for, without imposing fresh burdens on the people. It appears from this document, that, notwith standing the pressure and confusion caused by the Kaffir war during nearly the whole of the year 1846, which, of necessity, diminished some of the sources of internal revenue, the gross income of that year actually exceeded the estimates by 16,6101. The revenue available for 1848 is estimated at 181,6731. Os. 4d., and the expenditure, including various charges for the additions and alterations in the several departments mentioned above, together with a sum of 10,0001. for emigration from the United Kingdom, principally with a view of supplying the eastern province with labourers, is estimated at 179,6191. 19s. 7d., leaving a balance of 6,033 f. Os. 9d. for unforeseen charges. The following letter, from Lord Howden to Com modore Sir J. Herbert, will show his lordship's reasons for closing his diplomatic connexion with Monte Video and raising the blockade, moteelearly than they have yet been exhibited : Moss VIDEO, July 16.—Sir: In my illliroctioas from Lord Palmerston, dated March 22, 1847, it is said— " Yon can, if needful, give the arrangements the character of simply military ecetventions, involving DO idea of a nom ninon of rights, but simply containing the admission of an existing fact, that certain persona are at the head of retain bodies of troops" Acting according to the spirit of this penniesion, and anxious to avoid the dreadful expenditure of henna life, cruelly and naprofitably consumed in a war such as this, when, though the daily conflict, be inclusive and inglorious, the sum total of death at the sad of the month is very con. aidarable, I pr_ o pred, in concert with my colleague, Count Walewskl, • fair and home:ebb armistice to the govern ment of Monte Video and to Oeaeral Oribs. It was to last six months, during which time the tows was to be pro neioned by General Onbe, who was to furnish, at tee lowest price of first oat, 1,500 head of adds per month. General Oeibe accepted this armistice, not only with the conditions imposed, but in a etanner by which ilea title he 1111/912101 of legal Presideet should not be presented in sig nature. so r to incapacitate the plenipotentiaries of Rag land and France affixing their names to the document. The (preeminent of Monte Video has refused this armis tice, which I do not hesitate to say was advantageous to its interests, as it was without money, without credit, and, without native troops. As I consider, fint, that the Orientals of Meats Video are not at this moment free agents, but entirely controlled by a foreign garrison; and, secondly, that the blockade, having entirely lost its original character of a coercive measure against General Ram, has become eschuively a mode of supplying witk money, partly Me government oft More Video, and partly certain foreign individuals there, to the continued detrimeut of the extensive and warble commerce of England in these water, I hereby request you, sir, to raise the blockade of both aides of the river Oar, and to take the merinos necomary foe ceasing all farther in tervention in these waters. After actinic together for so long a time, a➢ow me to take this opportunity of thanking you Aameely for the uniformly kind and effective assistanoe I hare received from you on every occasion for the furtherance of her Majesty's arnica, during a protracted and &Stith negotiation.

NORTH SUFFOLK AND SOUTH NORFOLK AGRICULTURAL ASSOCIATION. MS tenth autumnal show took place at Eye, on Thanday last. The exhibition, if not larger in numbers, emlniely In quality exceeded the show of any former year.

Both mimes were universally admired • two finer were, Lever before exhibited in the kingdom. There Cla ils Z a remarkably fine show of Suffolk cows end halters ; Wog this department excited the most marked improve. mint; and an opinion was generally expressed, that if due wamtke be continued by the breeders, Suffolk will stand mathalled in this description of stock. The show of sheep and 'swine likewise attracted much notice; amongst the the latter, the Suffolk sow and litter of pigs, belonging to Mr. Stearn, of Easton, were pronounced to be most perfect and valuable specimens. The prises for long service and honest conduct were distributed by Sir E. Kerrison, on the ground. A kind word of encouragement or approval accom. peeled each prize. The ploughing matches took pleas ea the farm of Mr. E. S. (towing. There were eleven emmentors, and the work was done in good style. Mr. I.

The moderate price of the new fruit, the rite ef Vidalia raisins, and the cheapness of bread. that, all sables to render it probable that the returns of the whole twelve teseths will exhibit an inseam on the con. gumption of last year. " Although a gloom still pervades the commercial world in consequence oldie late failures and the unsettled state of the money market, there is, undoubtedly, much prosper dye national good in store, from the combined influence of the low prices of bread-staffs, sad of all articles, both of home, colonial, and foreign produce, which will develops the power of consumption to an extent beyond all prece dent. Though the manufacturing chases ere at present in a depressed state, yet the agricultural districts already show an increase in their demands for article., and the million sterling, now monthly in receipt for railway ware, will continue to exercise a salutary effect upon all branches of the trade of the country. " RAISINS —The cutter William was again the first ship with new Valentin, and reached the river 14th instant, four days later than last year. They opened at 50•., which was Be. above the opening price of last year. The Susan and the Nautilus arrived on the 18th and 20th instant; but the lame price was maintained till yesterday, when, on the arri vsl of the Lid y Kinsale, it was reduced to 475. The price was opened at Liverpool2oth instant at 455. " New muscatels have opened at 70,. boxes of layers, 60s. boxes of bunch. Several cargoes have arrived, but as yet the sales have been on a small scale, the attention of the trade being turned rather to old museatelg, which are com paratively cheaper, although commending higher rates than a month ago, in consequence of bad amounts from Malaga. Bunches are held at 42a., layers Me. The sales of Turkey fruit have been on a limited scale, holders having again raised their pretensions in consequence of the high price of Spanish fruit, and the certainty of a short crop in Turkey. New Sultanas opened at 75..,dealined to 60s. to 656., accord. lug to quality, and are now held at 70s. " Flos—The first new figs, per Tagus steamer, were on delivery here on the 9th inst. They arrived much too early and abundantly for the season, and the quality being mostly indifferent, they opened only at 655. The next arrival may be looked for in the second week in October, by which time there will be • better demand. ALMONDS.--Sweet Mogadores have advanced to .55a., being very harm. New Jordans have arrived freely, but the general demand has not yet come on. There are no old Jordans in the market." PORTCOUESE CATTLE.—The vessel Falcao, of Por tugal, which has arrived at the Brunswick-wharf, Black well, from Lisbon and Oporto, hoe brought, in addition to a cargo of fruits and other productions of a similar character, 130 oxen. With reference to this supply of live stock, we believe we may state that no previous arrival of the kind has taken place from Portugal at the port of London. The extent of the supply in the present instance, equalling nearly the largest of the arrivals of horned beasts from Holland and Germany, renders it particularly remarkable. Hope.—The conveyance of new hops per railway has so increased within the week put., that extra lugeage trains, on the Hastings branch of the London and South Coast line, have been put in requisition almost every evening, to expedite their transit to London. The hops are chiefly from the plantations in the eastern puts of Susesxnud West Kent, and these extra trains from the Lewes station _pro ceeded on the Keymtr branch to the junction with the Lon- I don line at Hayward's Heath, instead of going round by Brighton. A great number of cheep from Lew. s Fair was also forwarded via the same branch on Thursday ; one drover alone superintended the conveyance of 1,000, chiefly consiating, we believe, of ewes and ewe lambs.—Susses , Advertiser. gill ffi3tv,s No. 339.] LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, SEPT. 30, 1817.

EXPLOSION IN A LETTED.BAG AT THE GENERAL POST-OFFICE. - Shortly after nine o'clock this morning, while the meths and other officers of the General Pat-office were engaged in making op the mails at the Warwick divi sion of the London and North-Western Railway, and while one of the messengers was in the act of tying the Banbury bag, a hissing noise was beard, which appeared to proceed the inside of the bag. The string was instantly cut, whoa it was found that a small box, made of thin deal, con taining fawns, wee on fire. Fortunately, by this opportune discovery, the whole of the correspondence (which was con siderable) intended for Banbury was saved from destruction. It may be as well to say that the Postmaster-General is em powered by act of parliament to detain any letter or pocket found to contain inflammable articles, and to take proceed ings against the parties sending it. The Royal Mail Steam-packet Company have received orders from the Lords Ocannimiosars of the Admiralty, to make the following altenlism to thereat* et ' the West India mail packets whieklarre llossOanyOu in the 2nd of every month ; the anwneementa to with the packet of the 2nd N which will by way of BenandANssaso.

SOUTH WESTERN EXPRESS TRAlNS.—YsidsEkr. the directors of this company arranged for additional exams treino, to run daily from Nine Elms to Dorchester and Salisbury. The alteration commences to-morrow, the let of October, and will effect an entire change in the time table. THE MEXICAN BATTLES.—Yesterday the Ameri can vessels in the port of Liverpool were decked out with flags and streamers in honour of the victories gained by Ge neral Scott. THE IRISH FtvzL—We are sorry to say (saysthe Blackburn Standard) that the fever cases in this town are not on the decrease as regards number. The disease is less virulent in its attacks, but there are just as many victims u ever. Want of cleanliness, air, and attention, may be consi dered the primary causes of its continuance. On Friday last, the fever-shed, ordered by the guardians to be built in the yard of the workhouse, was completed. It is well suited ' for its purpose, and will hold about forty beds. It is to be regretted that some prevision is not made en public grounds to decently receive poverty and misery turned out from one hole to another by the gigantic works which are now cross ing the country in every direction. In connexion with this subject we may mention that Mr. J Pilkington, M.P., some time sines closed up a large number of callus—which are generally perfect hotbeds of disease—with a determination that they should not again be let for human habitations. If this example were generally followed, one great SOMA of sickliness and filth would be abolished. S?dALL.PDX IN SHEEP.—A very fatal disease, end, it is believed, new to this country, has lately made its ap pearanee among sheep. It is the small-pox of that animal, and in its first stages more particularly many fill victims to it. It is desirable that the public should be apprised et it, In order that the neonwary precautionary measures may be adopted to prevent its further propagation. It was introduced by some Spanish sheep imported from Hamburg, and has already found its way into many flocks. Several sheep affected with it have also been exposed for *ale in Smithfield market At the Royal Veterinary College experiments have been instituted, by which its infections and contagious nature have been completely proved, and others are being carried on with a view to check its progress and to lessen its fatality. ho.

Hawn/arms Sept. 28.--The weather still continues of • propitious chariotsr for securing the little ,grain that may still be out in the Highland districts, and, from inquirice we have made, the Wheat crop is likely te pop.' the meet abundant one we have experienced since 1843, ‘vhilat, at the same time, the quality loaves nothing to be desired. The same remarks will apply to Barley. Oats will yi aid a fair average produce; but Beans and Peas will prove Ter, defective. At our market this morning we had a Jibe TE I sup ply of Wheat from the growers, but the arrivals coa being exceedingly trifling a clearance was readily effe.lted, at the full rates of Saturday. In foreign the tuastactiens were to • limited extent, our millers buying mere] .. fr s oLn hand to mouth ; in prices, however, we note little For Flour the inquiry proved limited, and althou ' grWe quantity unsold here is trifling, 435. was, wftk the utmost difficulty, realised for choice households, and 45a. for whites. la Rya very little passing .

Malt unal tered. Boiling Peas seem to be attracting more attention, and as the stocks In granary are trifling, they are held with considerable firmness. Beans without change. Oats look ing up in value, and, owing to the high price of Hay, we look for a large consumptive demand being experienced as the season advances. Dontix, Sept. 28.-At the Corn-exchange to-day there was a good supply of all denominations of grain, and the general tendency of the market was to decline, occasioned by the lam retrograde movement in England. Wheat of all kinds must be quoted 6d. to Ia lower than on Friday. The best qualities of Barley and Oats supported their prices, but other descriptions were difficult of sale, and 3d. to Bd. lower.

COMMERCIAL 4 MARKETS. MONtY MARKET & CITY INTELLI GENCE. Ralf-past One.—lt appears that the settlement of the half-monthly account for the railway share mar ket, which took place yesterday, produced a failure of considerable importance. Messrs. John Shewell and Son (some years ago Shovel] and Hitchcock), a party long and most respectably known as members of the Stock Exchange, have this morning been declared defaulters. The failure of these gentlemen is ascribed, and we presume correctly so, to the ex cessive depreciation of railway property, as they have been largely operating in this description of secnii ties, particularly in the shares of the Caledonian, ; Eastern Counties, and London, Brighton, and South Closet Companies. Comm& have declined to 85 (buyers) for the aoseuut. A fall of so much as nearly per cent. on the opening. valse may be supposed to have been caused by the additional failures, actual and appre ' headed, Which have been spoken of.

THE descendants of CORTES and of the Spanish conquerors of Mexico, have, after all, made no more effectual defence against the present race of invaders than the people of the Incas did against the Spaniards. There could not be a city more capable of defence than Mexico, surrounded by lakes, or chains of mountains and mountain passes connecting those lakes. Mili tary skill, with the bravery that the Mexicans have shown, might have rendered their capital and its precious valley impregnable, at least to the ten or twelve thousand men that the Americans could at present have brought against it. But as the arrows of the Mexican Indians told weakly against the fire arms of Coares, the nullity or treachery of SANTA ANNA in defensive warfare has placed the city of Mexico at the mercy of the American general. AS SANTA ANNA had concentrated his force and diseeted kts preeasticms towards the one strong point ever which the road from Vera Cruz passed, to gain the Table land, so his reliance for defending the capital was on El Penon, a pass between the lakes eastward of Mexico. General Scorr was put to no very novel or astute device toovercome these obstacles. He did in the one case precisely what he did in the other—took another road, and turned the difficulty. In stead of pursuing the high road from La Puebla to Mexico, he turned round Lake Chalco, and gained the great southern road to the capital. In this change of position, and side march, the American army had moreover its flank completely sheltered by the lakes, round whose banks it marched to St. Augustine. Here it came upon an inferior division of the Mexi cans, under General VALENCIA, posted in the village of St. Angel and the fortified position of Sat ANTONIO. In their first attack upon General VALENCIA, the Americans seem to have been worsted and compelled to retreat. The American generals spent the 19th in vain attempts to dislodge him. To take VALEN CIA'S batteries was, however, with the American general, a case of necessity. His failure would, in his then position, have been utter destruction. Spurred by this necessity, General WORTH'S troops did carry the batteries on the 20th, and drove the routed Mexi cans with immense loss back upon the city. How far, or how truly, SANTA ANNA supported VALENCIA remains to be learned. But that the Mexicans fought va liantly, as well as the Americans, their stubborn resistance, and immense loss, in chief officers ae well as in men, clearly tell. The struggle seems highly honourable to all parties, except to the Mexican commander-in-chief. The Americans speak of having but six or seven thousand men, whilst the Mexican force, under SANTA ANNA, must have been thirty thousand. With such disparity of numbers we are not surprised to and General SCOTT listening to terms of peace, and even consenting to a forty-eight hours' armistice, which he certainly would not have done were ho not most desirous of an accommodation. We have as yet, however, no official details, the news being chiefly that which the American jonmals, with their usual activity, have obtained in advance. It seems, however, finally decided that Mexican resist ance in the open field is a hopeless case—that the war party, if a member of it survives, cannot support such opinions in congress or executive council, or in the city , of Mexico—and that whatever be the hatred to the foreigner, which cannot bend to the American, it must seek refuge in local resistance and provincial struggle. VALENCIA himself has fled with some troops, and declares against SANTA ANNA and peace. If the Americans pro voke the continuance and extension of this by im posing severe and dishonourable terms, they may find very serious and very general resistance ; but if, on the contrary, they grant such terms as a Mexican party can accept—if they leave Mexico to the Mexi cans, merely contenting themselves with lopping off the outlying provinces, and exercising that high poli tical influence which is not felt in the ranks of every day life, then the task of POLK has been completed. And most to an co xi m ons pl , e f te or it th this the w are ay th ge e tt P in res g u id p e a nt po m w us e t rful he cry throughout the union of "No more conquests ! No Mexican territory!" DREAD of exposure ill producing its usual effect on parochial authorities and commissioners of sewers. We have never had to record such activity in the suppression of nuisances as has prevailed since the appointment of a sanitary commission for the metro po.. Cesspools that had stagnated unmolested for years are being stirred up. Innocent proprietors of knackers'-yards and slaughter-houses stare to find themselves pleading to indictments at the Old Bailey. Ward inquests, hitherto the most harmless of scare crows, are beginning to discharge real functions. Stinks are assailed that have hitherto poisoned with impunity. Inspectors insist on drains, which occu piers have vainly asked for. Vested rights go to the wall, unaided by their vehement partisans, or are cruelly fallen foul of by the very authorities who have, till now, been their staunchest defenders. Never was each a stirring of the straw through all the branches of Bumbledom. If the mere terror of investigation has had this • palpable effect, much more may be anticipated from the investigation itself. There is reason to apprehend, however, that this activity, and its effects, may be pleaded against the i probable recommendations of the commis loners. Loral and parochial functionaries are active now, that ; they may secure the right to be apathetic hereafter. . The Mends of sanitary improvement should be cm the look out for arguments urged against any change of system, on the score of what has been done under the present system within the last throe weeks. The sole reason for the late unwonted activity is, the dread of existing authorities that the new commission should lay Their dark dominions open to the day. It is fear of what is to come, and not shame for the past, that summons neglectful landlords to Guildhall, and recusant slaughtermen to the Old Bailey. This sudden and 'unusual zeal is not to be trusted even for perseverance in what it is doing now, much lees for remedying the general defects in the metropolitan sanitary apparatus. Some of these we have already pointed out. We have ahewn, for example, how useless any partial tampering with the sewerageof London must be,while it continues in the hands of seven commissions, ignorant, irresponsible, their accounts inaccessible to the rate-payers, most open to jobbery, governed by no uniform plan, with areas of jurisdiction utterly irrespective of the natural areas of drainage.. Even if the 700 members of these commissions were men as peculiarly qualified for their work, as they are now unfit for it—as zealous as they are now apathetic—as honest in administration, as they are now reckless—as harmonious in action, as they are now jarring—it would be impossible for them, as at present constituted, to accommodate the sewerage of London to the wants of its inhabitants. The system must be reformed at ore. A general survey with contour lines must be furnished as the ground-plan of all future sewerage operations. Means must be found of discharging the contents of existing sewers else where titan into the Thames. One compact, active, well-ishemed body of functionaries must be ap pointee' fix the work which is now neglected by sews @boggling, careless, and ignorant awemblages, misedbd eassainsioners of sewers. liesemily, as to noisiness dangerous to life and health.
