The Arcole, Capt. !foodless, arrived in the Mersey at an early hour yesterday, bringing New York papers to the 14th ult., which complete the accounts pub lished by us yesterday from the New York Journal of Commerce, of the 16th tilt. General S cott having completed the investment of Vera Cruz, summoned the city to surrender or. the 22nd of March. The garrison having refused to comply, the American batteries opened on the town. Owing to the strong Norte which prevailed for five days, the naval part of the armament was unable to take any effective part in the operations. Upwards of thirty vessels are mid to have been driven on shore. According to the American statements, their bombardment told with terrible effect; nearly one half of the city is repre sented as destroyed by the shells. On the 26th, the Mexicans made overtures for surrender, and on the evening of the 28th terms of capitu lation were agreed upon, of which the following is an abstract : That the garrisons of the city and castle shall lay down their arms as prisoners at war, officers retaining their arms; that they should march out with the honours of air saluting the flag of the city and castle from their owabli : Wk., on striking them, at the moment the troops were rar rendering their arms; that the troops, regulars and irre gulars, should be dispersed ti their homes, upon patois given by their own rolls, and by their own officers, not Mt serve against the United States until duly exchanged, officers giving at the same time their own parole for themselves indi vidually; that all public property of every descriptioa should bmome the property of the United States that such por tions of the Mexican armament (of San Juan d'Ulloa) es may not have been destroyed during the war, may be liable to be restored by stipulations on the conclusion •f a do finitive treaty of peace • that private property is to be invite late, and not liable to'be taken without arrangement with the owner ; that the religion of the inhabitants, its instito tions and ceremonies, arc solemnly guaranteed; that official sod men under parole may remain in the city to settle pri vate affairs. not to exceed five days. In fulfilment of these stipulations, the :genies& troops marched out of the city on the morning of the 29th, and stacked their arms. The American columns then advanced on each side of the Mexican line into the town, and in a brief space the stripes and stare waved over the city and the fort At the time of concluding the capitulation. there were only five days' provisions in the town, and as much ammunition as might have served for five days. The American Papers state that on the side of the Mexicans there were about 1,000 killed, the greater proportion being women and children. Their own loss they estimate at 15 killed and 57 wounded. The next movement contemplated by Gene ral Scott, is understood to be an attack upon Alvarado. In 1825, so long as the Spaniards retained possession of San Juan d'Ulloe, the trade of Vera Cruz took refuge is Alvarado, which is situated about twelve leagues to the S.R. of that city, at the mouth of the Rio Alvarado. This transference lent a transient importance to the place, which it lost as soon as the Spanish troops were withdrawn. Recollection of this circumstance may have induced General Scott to take possession of Alvarado now as a neeensry step to cut off all communication between the coast and the interior. Operations, both by sea and land, wore immediately to be commenced against it ; but the General says in his despatch: " No lateral movement however shall interfere with the joint movement to wards the capital." General Taylor, however, seems scarcely prepared I to take part in this joint movement. In his order of the day issued after the battle of Buena Vista, he states that whilst the main body of his army behaved most gallantly, there were " not a few exceptions," consisting of runaways who fairly fled the field. Old " rough and ready," in his quaint way, expresses a hope that they may live to fight better another time. In the north of Mexico, Colonel Doniphan is stated to have taken possession of Chihuahua. The reports from New Mexico are contradictory : according to some, the insurrectionary movement of the natives had been repressed; according to others, the Ame ricans continued to be harassed by a murderous partisan warfare. The intelligence respecting the interior of Mexico, and the Mexican forces and government, is sufficiently vague, and rods exclusively on private communica tions. A Spanish journal, at New Orleans, inserted in its publication of 6th April, a letter, dated Tampico, March 24, of which the following is an extract : Private letters from the capital, written on the night of the 18th, state that Gen. Santa Anna has just arrived in that city. It is also stated that the revolution against the salmi. nistratisn of Gomez Ferias had at length been terminated in a favourable manner to the government, and that Gins. Pen, Barragan, and Sales, who were the heath of the oppo sition to Gomez Ferias, had been shot. I do not know if this last information be correct. We are anxiously awaiting the mail to confirm or negative the report. ' The letter of our Lisbon correspondent, published by us yesterday, having applied particulars of the state of affairs in the south, it is only necessary to refer very briefly to the events which have lately taken place in the north, of Portugal. When the last accounts left Oporto, on the 30th ultimo, Saldanha remained inactive to the south of the Douro, while the Junta were actively engaged raising and organising a force which is described as having reached • state of much efficacy, considering the materials from, which it has had to be formed. The people of the Minho and Tras-os-Montes, since the retirement of Casa! beyond the Douro, had openly declared for the liberal cause, and were offering their services to the Junta more rapidly than arms and accoutrements could be provided. The castle of Viana and the town of Valence, were the only places on the northern frontier that still held out for the Queen; but their immediate surrender was expected. Perhaps, the severest blow that has recently fallen upon the royal cause has been the surrender of one of the Oporto blockade Kaaren to the Junta. The crew of a twenty-gun corvette, the Eighth of July, having overpowered their officers, carried the ship into the Douro in open day, on the 27th ult., without an attempt being made by the other vessels to prevent them. She was received by the Junta under a salute of twenty-one gnus, and it was expected that another of the Queen's squadron, • brig, would follow the example of the corvette. The Oporto Joint Stock Bank has been obliged to yield to the demand of the Junta, and the remainder of the loan of 200 contos is to be paid by instalments. DEPARTURE OF TIER MAJESTY FOR OSBORNE- Rousz.—Her Majesty, Prince Albert the Prince of Wales, and Princess Royal, attended by the Hon. Miss Stanley, Colonel Bouverie, and Lieut.-Colonel the Hon. C. B. Phipps, left Buckingham-palace, in throe of the royal c trriageo. this morning, at ZS minutes put nine o'clock, for the Nine Elms terminus of the South Western railway, from whence the royal party proceeded, by special train, to Gosport, en route to Osborne-house. It is expected her Majesty will arrive at Gos port shortly before one o'clock, and embark on board the Fairy yacht to inspect the fleet in the harbour and in the roads, after which her Majesty and suite will proceed to Osborne house to dinner. The royal escort consisted of a detachment 1 of the 12th Light Dragoons (Lancers). COMMERCIAL 4- MARKETS. MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE. Two o'Clock.—This being pay-day for the third instalment of the eight million loan, which, it was naturally supposed, would create some emb;rreasmtent in the present I difficulties of the money market, a good deal of anxiety prevailed as to the result. The principal holden of the scrip of this loan, as well as the contractors, are ' known to be parties of great command of capital; but, in such extraordinary times as the present, with credit at the lowest ebb, and paid for when accommodation can be obtained at the meet ruinous rates for the most limited amount, it is clear that, however wealthy and powerful they may be in reality, all must be desirous, and indeed under the necessity, of retaining all the means, of which they may have the disposal, or can in any manner obtain the control of, in their own possession, to ans vcr all those current liabilities and those contingencies of threaten ing import which daily occur, and may more largely occur hereafter, in the course of their regular business transac tions. A demand upon funds so reserved, and subject to call otherwise, to the extent of one million in cash as the amount of the loan instalment now due, could not but be felt as a most se rious inconvenience, almost approaching to a public disaster, at a moment when, with porfolios full of bills with names of the most unexceptionable security upon them, with loads of Exchequer Bills in hand, and holders of Consols or other stuck* for hundreds of thousand or millions besides, capitalists of the highest standing could scarcely discount a small tapper:ion of their bill paper at all, or sell their Ex chequer Bills, or convert their Consols into cash without a loss of some 15 per cent. upon the cost price. In this desperate state of attain government and the Bank of England have, upon forcible and repeated representations, tardily consented :t accept Exchequer Bills in payment of the instalment as a present relief. ,The Bank have , in conformity, given notice at the Stock Exchange, that they will be pre pared to advance upon Exchequer Bills, but only for 14 days, at the rate of .5 per cent. per anaum for the time. , Nothing can more clearly evince the present distracted state of . money affairs than this limitation of the advance as to time. o It has the effect, however, of a momentury relief, and Cou r solo, which were depressed lor 1 below the closing rates of c yesterday, have improved to 871 to 1 for account, and for . money, 861 to 71.

Lord CAMPBELL id that ample opportunity for so doing would be given their lordships before going into committee. FINA.N.CIAL DEPRESSION. Lord BROUGMA .M wished to ask the noble marquis, the Presideat of 'the Council, whether any important communication f tom bankers and merchant in the City had reathed the government as to the low state of the money market ? The Madero of Lancashire and the West !Ailing of Yorkshire wh. had lately received orders from America complained that, for want of money, they could not execute these orders, and were obliged to atop their mills and dinning their men. In that state of things, and in consequence of the distress in Ireland, they had to send for more and more eupplit s of cora to the United States. Now, if these orders from America could he executed, then they could get corn from America without money ; but, as it was, they were every day sending bullion out of the conutry. He believed that a greet and imme diate remedy was required • and he ventured to engem that they should not let any . rdwey bill pass during thin evasion without inserting therein a clause spreading the payment of the instalments over a long period. It happened, during the last week, that the host paper in London was refused at 12 per cent. In a very short period instalments ' ' would he called for by the new railways, and then, such would be the necessity for avoiding the forfeiture of shares, that parliament could make whatever terms they pleased with them. He could assure their lordships that this sug . geation came to hint backed by a very high authority in the ! money market. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said that he had no hesi. • tation in saying that it did happen that within the sour-e of the last few hours his noble friend, the First Lord of the Treasury, had been in communication with very respectable . parties in the City, on the subject to which the noble and t learned lord &Ended, but he did not know what was the . result. • Lord ASHBURTON expressed his belief that the legiti ; mate commerce of the country was in a safe state. All this ; confusion arose out of the restriction on the iaue of the Bank. Now that there were between nine and ten millions ) of bullion In the Bank, there were only two millions and a , half available. Earl FITZ WILLIAM said, it ought not to bo taken for granted that the existing difficulties arose solely from one cause—the construction of railways. He much doubted whether this really was the cause. He thought parliament never legislated worse than when the two leading parties concurred in opinion. (Hear, hear.) Lord BROUGHAM explained that be did not attribute the pressure exclusively to railways. As he had said on a former occasion, the state of the exchanges, and the export , of bullion, had also had a marked effect. , Lord WHARNCLIFIE was understood to esy that he , thought the measure of 1544 wan, upon the whole, P sound and useful measure, without whi ch the country would have , been in a much worse condition. lie contrasted the pub. fished accounts of the Bank in August with those of April last, and contended that a sound principle had not governed its operations. Taking into account along with this, the fact, that manufacturers had been &I[llo6t incapacitated from executing their orders, it was matter of surprise that oar condition was not much wore; and this was only Writhe table to the act of 1844. Lord ASHBURTON controverted the opinion of the last noble lord as to the soundness et' the act of 1844. He alluded to the panic of 182.5, and described the steps which were then taken, by incensing the circulation by five million, in order to allay the prevailing alarm. The evil then arose more from a want of confidence in the banks at borne, than from an inordinate exportation of bullion. At present, the mials might be described as a famine of money, which effectually checked the operations of our manufacturers. ARMY SERVICE BILL. Earl GREY, at the request of Lord Brougham, postponed the committee on this hill from Monday till Tuesday. POOR RELIEF (IRELAND) BILL. On the motion for going into committee on this bill, The Earl of RODEN had listened with great pleasure to the speech of the noble marquis opposite (Lansdowne) oo introducing We bill to the house. Ile had understood that the hill did not go to the extent of authorising the granting of relief to all who might claim it. He believed tint no nee, whatever knowledge of the country and the people he might possess, could undertake to any what would be the operation of this bill in Ireland. It would infallibly make a vast change in the value of property. In his opinion, the evils of Ireland were such that they could not longer be palliated. The rapid increase of the population, coincident with a serious falling-off in the spin e tity of food, presented a situatien which could not fail to be productive of serious consequences. At such a crisis, it was fortunate that there was at the head of the Irish eovernment &noble lord whose sagacity, courage, and determination had prompted the adoption of the moat beneficial measures, by which he had entitled himself to the respect and affection of all interested in the welfare of Ireland. His career in that country—which be feared would be but too short—bad been such as to entitle him to the praise of all parties. (Hear.) It had been too much the custom to send there Englishmen who were ignorant of the real condition and wants of the country, and whose influence in parliament had been exerted for the passing of measures wholly inapplicable to Ireland. This had been the cause of much of the misery of the sister country. (Hear.) As to the Poor Relief Bill, be conceived that no harm could tithe from limiting its operation to a certain number of years, at the end of which it might be dealt with by parliament as might be found necessary. The house then went into committee. Oa Clause 1 being put by asks chairman, Lord MONTEAAE rose to move an amendment, the object of which was to bring under consideration the impor tant question, whether the bill should be a permanent or a tee:porn/ mentors ? And, though the amendment of which he had given notice was in effect to limit the cperation of the bill for one year, and until the then next session of parlia ment (which amounted to two years), yet the issue upon which he abonld take the opinion of their lordships was on the (location Ir had mentioned, leaving the period of the duration of kill to be properly discussed when the limita tion elms ties miethell to their notice. The first portion of this bill selebHeled. Sr the first time in Ireland, the right of the able-bodied as well as the disabled poor to out-door relief, while a ensmill series of provisions were necessary amend ments of the m u tang law, and if he proposed to suspend the whole of the bid, is might be met by objections that he thereby would annesed the clause relative to emigration, the improved regulation of the workhouses, and the ez officio guardians' clause and would deprive the commissioners of conferredthe power lby this bill, of dissolving unions which at present were too large, and of substituting a better de scription of boundaries between the unions. He did not seek, however, to do this. It was admitted by the govern mud that this bill was a " perilous experiment," and be should be astonished to find any man bold enough to assert that the future beneficial working of that experiment could not be doubted. He would call attention to a few facts to illustrate the dangers which would attend the experiment their lordships had been now called upon to make. Though the amount of charge which this measure would entail upon Irish property was great, still it was a secondary consi deration in comparison with the other effects which would re sult from the measure. Muth had been said of the confiscation of Irish property, and one of the arguments in favour of the bill was that though there might be coufiscation, it was only taking from one clan to give to another. This he denied, and maintained that the meaeure went to &grey the ,h o p e ex lateness of property in that Country. Some estim f amount a charge unite the bill might be formed from the amount actuolly charged at present under the Temporary Relief Act. He had received a return shoeing that in the province of Bluster the amount of rase already paid for the relict of the poor during a period of three months was Ile. in the pound sterling, being 44i. in the pound on an an -111/ft rating, if the annual rating should he pro- portioned to the amount of rate fixed during the pact three months. In the province of Leinster, com prising a mere favourable portion of Irehind, he found a return on which he fully and entirely relied, and which • showed the amount of rate under the Temporary Relief Act to be from 7s. to 10s. in the pound for the past quarter, or at the rate of 40e. in the pound on the year. But it was not to much a question as to the amount of ream, but whet would be the t fiect produced ea the character and minds of the Irish people. Considering the Irish character, was there room to anticipate any alteration in it, after they had begun to expect to be fed witheut work? Ou this subject he had received evidence which was equally as al:ruling as the amount of charge on property. k'row a eleremtan of the established church, located on the borders of the counties of Limerick and Tipperary, who had been actively employed with the Romeo catholic priest of the &evict in endeavouring to administer the law, he learned " that irons the enormous length of the lists of applicant* for relief, it was impassible to ham the truth of all their staternenta. They eel seemed anxious to enrol their moms for a tatters in whatever wee giving—there was no shame—co self respect amongst Uwe ; tater demorolizaties was complete." Not withstanding those statements, he (Lord Monteagle) aid not seek the rejection of this bill ; bat he asked the government, by whom it was admitted that the measure was perilous, not to put it on the statute-book in • permanent meat. On this groan& and in order to raise the common whethee the ma aura woe to b. permanent or temporary, he now mimed tes an mmendment, in the enacting part of the first clause, to infest 'she words " during the time hereinafter to be limited Ilse gaardians of the poor in every union in Ireland shall have pose to to A ma ßi k N e o p E ro a vision puppo for rted theirthme ...uslment, and lad lief," &e. &c. Lord mated his intention, ahou'd it fail, to move an a mendment In the effect that any persons, after the p ming of this bill, , mho entered into • Mate of matrimony, should have no right I elestmolves, or thorn dependent or. them , to relief. (Laughter.) I noble lords ht be surprised at this mammal, he e mgrottea he seer ''‘fltheen taking away from ' c am ga lle m wen thal" °I. this si du th ger e a u d 4 o s p e tte lPeri a ee any person ft e right to relief now enjoyed, tae hill with The Earl of WICKLOW thought it would have been would repeal itself. such a provision as he mentioned, more judicious sod expedient to have reserved a deci sion upon the permanency of this measure until the num emus amendments on the notice-paper of to night had been disposed of, and it wee amertaiued what the provisione of the b•ll really were. Tree it was that he (the marl of Wicklow) had given notice of an amendment to limit the duration of the hill to three years ; hut his reasons foe intending to make that proposal meted on totally and en tirely &Kermit growl& to thew put forwerd by his noble friend (Lord alonteagle). His (the Earle f Wicklow's) decided opinon was, that once int reduce a raeastire of this k lad athether for two or three years, it must become a permanent mosaare. It was not in order to get rid of out-dour relief that he pro posed that the measure should be limited to three ye as, bat, in order that the attention of parliament might then be directed to this important subject, and if the bill was found to work ill it might he remedied. and if it was found beam finial, parliament might renew it in its integrity. He begged to suggest to the noble lord that he should withdraw his amendment vow to let the bill go through committee, and then see whether it would be netmaary. Lord BROUGHAM said, if he was to *chime his noble friend, he should request him not to adopt the advice of the noble earl who had just sat down. He thought the amend ment judiciously framed, although it was not framed in a spirit of amity to the bill. If he was a friend of the bill he should oppose the amendment ; luta coming from an avowed enemy, it war roost judicious. If he was an advocate of the bill, fie should do what seas milled a blundering thing if he supported this amendment • but he approved of it, because it was proposed against what he thought a most impolitic measure—he approved of it became lie thought it mitigated the pressure co a very bad measure—he approved of it be cause it made it inevitable, that within a specified time parliament would have to review the measure, —and because it proposed a course which was pus sued in the case of the English Poor-law of 11134, which was coefemedly an experimental measure. He wee still of opinion that cilia measure was contrary to all prin ciple, and ought not to be permanent. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE (who was imperfectly heard) said he was glad that be had heard the obtervetwas of noble lords who had spoken, before he offered a few words in explanation of the course which he felt issued to take. In the first place he must say that his noble friend (Lord lalenteagle) was perfectly justaled in proposing his amend ment at the present time ; and taking the dientsaion at the beginning instead of the end of the committee. But the noble and learned lent admitted that this amendment would compel the home to give an opinion whether the immure should he temp, racy or permanent 'Mott then knowing what the bill was—(hear, )rear) —and it called oat the house to pronounce a judgment without consideration of the grounds on which thet judgment was to be formed. (Hear, hear.) The noble and learned lord said he supported the amendment because it was calculated to defeat the bal. Lord BROUGIIAM.—To limit it. The Marquis uf LANSDOWNE.—But Ms noble friend (Lord Monteagli ) approved of part of the bill, lie had heard hint say morn than once that to part of the bill he should offer no opposition, and that part, which was of the most permanent character, namely, the first clause, which wee not dependent on the will of the Lord-Lieutenant or of the poor-la e commissieners, but a permanent clause enacting that relief should be afforded out of deers to the nick and disabled, and those whose claims were defined by it. To this his noble friend offered no opposition, end it could sot be assumed but that before they came to the end of the bill, it might be reduced to that part of it which he approved. The other parts were susceptible of amendment, and he agreed with the noble earl (Wicklow) that until the amendments were made, they were not its a condition to decide whether the measure should be permanent or tempo- rary. He (the Marque of Lansdowne) admitted thet the measure was an experiment attended with risk, but it was (imminent with tl.is to give it a permanent form, because there was no bill that was not Plaice: to the revi sion of parliament. But if a bill which required new machinery in Ireland to carry it out was made tempo rary, and it parliament was to be cempelled in three years to reconsider it, such a coarse was calculated to defeat its ob ject. If a temporary character was given to this measure, it would render it highly probable that the object of a bin which he thought was calculated to promote the peace and welfare of Ireland, would he defeated. lie disclaimed the idea that although it was a permanent measure it wild not come under the review of parliament, but he asked their lordship, not to hold out to the people of Ireland that it was not intended to be permanent. After a few woros from Lord WHABSCLIFFE and Lord BItOU011•11, Lora STANLEY said that the question resolved itself into the smallest pesaible compass, and, therefore, their lord ships might he sure that he should not occupy their atten tion at any length ; but he could not refraiu from expressing his strong opinion that his noble friend (the Marquis or Lansdowne) had fared to answer the emends on which his noble friend (Lord alonteegle) had proposed his amendment In point of fact,his noble friend (the Marquis of Lansdowne) had act denied that this was a measure hazardous in its nature, introducing a new clue of relief for a new elms of persons, new authorities, different manricement, and, above all, the great risk thin, without the greatest circumspection and care, it would itn. one a burden on the resources of Ireland which it wallah:neat impartible they could beer. Under these circumstances, what was it that his noble friend (Lerd Mont eagle) prepesed ? He was afraid that he (Lord Stanley) was exposing himself to the censure of his tolae friend (Lord Brougham), who was even here just now, but whose move ments were no rapid that he was not easily found. His noble friend said all those who were hostile to the bill would be guilty of blundering if they dial not support the amend ment. lie (Lord Stanley) was nut hostile to the bill. (Hear, hear.) He had supported the second reading, and he thought the eircuamtances of Ireland were sack and the danger unto which she was eximed was so great, that the rovernment had a right to ask their lordships to take it into their oonsideratiou. It was not, how ever, inconsistent, with a dimmition to support a measure which was one of doubt and difficulty, to support an amend ment for which there were many precedents, and among others, the English poor-law, and which would enable an ex periment of its working to be made. His noble friend (the Marquis of Lansdowne) said that if it were supposed to be an experimental measure, its effect would be counteracted. (Hear, Hear.) lie (LOr) Stanley) did not concur in that opinion. lie believed the knowledge that the measure was not permanent, and that every act of its working would be watched by the legislature, and that it must be again sub jected to legislation, would introduce more circumspection sad fare on the part of the authorities titan if it was at once sada ppeermanent, and they trusted to chance far its future atMiment. He could not understand how the noble steel) (Wicklow) who hail given notice of an mend meat to restrict the operation of the whole hill to three years, without reference to any niodAeadeut or alterations, should, for what reason it passed hil (Lord Stanley'sLoompeels., mime to undenstand, oppose the amendment of , noble friend, which only proposed that a portion of the most hazardous part of it should be limited to a Imeriod *Lich he left blank. The Earl of WICKLOW did not say that he should op pose the amendment, he =le recommended that it &end be withdrawn for the prevent. Lord STANLEY begged the noble earl's pardon, and was happy to find that he had misunderstood his speech, sod that it was not his intention to oppose the amendment, which, he hoped, hie nob l e friend would prom to a division. He (Lord Stanley) cordially moported it, not in any spirit of hostility to the bill—(hear, henz)— not with any desire to prevent this experiment being tried, not with any desire to frustrate the safe working of the bill ; but because he believed that the further interference of par liament would be materially beneficial to its working, and would impose on parliament the compulsion of revising it within a limited period, and no to perfect a measure which, with all its hazards, was calculated to work for the benefit of Ireland. The Archbishop of DUBLIN did not consider that the support of this amendment implied homility to the bill. (Ilea; hear.) lie had not so muck of hope, but more of Isar, with regard to thenorking of this measure as acme noble lords who had spoken ; but if he had felt much less fear as to its working, he should have supported this amendment, ap the ground that the bill was a hazardous experiment, and' on 'a • "-- which was admitted both by its supporters and oppou. • . -; I;7' C hazardous.
