The new arrangement concluded with St. Demirgo has been received by the merchants of Rouen with a!l the interest that its impertance reqtaires. By the care of M. le Chevalier Severs, Commissary of the Navy an this port, it was posted up early in the morning all over the city, and procla med in the Linen-hall, where it was received with the most lively satisfaction. Several of the dealers immediately began to engage with the mer chants of the colony for the purchase of articles adapted to its consumption. The happy it.fluence which this event will have on our manufactures is already felt, and business has be come in a sensible degree more' biLk. Everything promises the speedy rersew•al of the direct couunercial intercourse which formerly erdstecl between the port of Rouen and St. Domingo. OF SY!..BET CANS, OR GROUND RATTANS. " This curlout change was, we understand, eff cted with ease in a few hours. The result is very interesting, inasmuch as it proves 'the great facility and economy with which these in g enious structures can be cumposel and suspended. "It appears Abet came horn One .hundred to two hundred and tWenty-frie if in lerigtl4.--aard from one L to nearly two inches in diameter, are - pmcirrable on our North Eastern frontier, merely for the cost of tlpe labour in collecting them together. The .Governor- General's agent, Mr. Scott, when at Sylhet i sent.doSra to Calcutta, at the requrnt of Mr. Colo Stakts'pear, a. supply of canes, coiled up iike rope; and of which 4te has constructed the present small bridge of one hun dred and thirty feet span by 6ve feet in width. Not only the road-way; but ail the radiating guys, catenary Curved swingi, preventer braces, and vertical suspenders, are of cane, none exceeding one and a quarter inch in diameter, and many not three-quarters of an ineh. " The use of iron thimbles throughout the compo. sition, gives an air of symmetry and neatnes7, while they greatly &tannish_ friction, and add mach to the strength of the bridge, which, like its nut:a predeces)or, has only one iron jointed arm in the centre. • "The appearance of the arch is singularly light, even more so than rope; and it is in reality lighter as a whole, beeause the bamboo cross slips, forming the road-way, are lashed at once to the canes,- and. thus it becomes firmer than in a rope bridge, in which the - - tread-way is clistiuct, and lies over the strands. • 41 E.ghteen canes of 150 feet each form the . hevrings. These are lashed together at each end of the bridge, and then bound round four opera hearts,- in substirottori of dead e) es. Thus the setting sip power acts in re . same way as•with the rove bridge. "There are no friction she-acts , ',II e standard*, with the exception of one for the lowest guy, the angle . being acute. " The strength and chrrability of the sane is by some considered equal to that of rope, but this is a questidts- • that time %ill solve. Meanwhile it is quite clear, that if the cane should only last a season or two of the rains, and it is strongest when kept moist, the advantages - gained to the country, abounding in that useful and cheap commodity, will be incalculable, no bridge whatever, we beieve, having been attempted in that • quarter up to the present time. And we may cOnclude that the natives, from habit and method in working np cane, will improve both on the neatness and strength of cane bridges now to be introduced, especially as they • well know; from experience, how to thorn! the 'btu kind of cane, and to cut it at the proper season for Mb purpose intended. 4 ' The Right Hon. the Governor-General visited the • cane bridge on Friday morning, and his Excellency was pleased, after a minute inspection, to signify his approbation of so novel and nteful a structure. " The original experimental Baru Torrent Bridge,- still lying at Allipore undercover, was also exhibited to his Excellency preparatory to its return tb its station, for the third season of the approaching rains. It is then, we are told, the Postmaster General's intention that it shall be accompanied by a new bridge, fcr a tomtit• a few miles west td' I3ancoorah. “ This facility of transporting and erecting rope bridges of all dimensions naturally leads to the.queotion, whether such machinery would not have proved yoiy useful in the present warfare on our &Ist and Rents East frontiers, especially with General Siuldham's vision in Cachar, a country interNected with is 1111-- Fable nullahs, and an enemy in front ?” CILERITY OF EXPRESSES AND THE COMMON DAL. " We are happy in recording a very extraordinary in. stance of further increased celerity in the progress of our mails to Madras. On the 4th of last m ;nth, an express from Government to Ceylon via Madras, reached the latter place in the short space of nine drys and three quarters of an hour, having thus e• .towed by twelve hours the greatest speed yet attained, even on the im proved rates which of late years have tsken place. Th.e measured distance, it is well known, is 1,044 miles.— The common Dak which brought this inrellige ce its little more than eleven days, now greatly surpasses all former expresses on the old regime. " From the Bombay side of India, an express reached Calcutta, on the sth instant, in the shoat space of thir teen days and a half, the dist •nce being 1,30 S miles. On the advantages to Goverment and the met cantiis body, thus acquired by these very espeeitions rates of communication, it would be superfluous to say mo-e, than that they refixt much credit on the Post OtF.ce Department. " The Madras Supplementary Gazette, of Tuesday evening, the 22d ult. taings acounts of the s fe arrival of the French ship Anna at that rut, after having struck on the Pul cat shoal. She had on board tree Shakespearian bridge models for the Madras Govern ment, one a highly-honleti town model, the other of the rustic order." A Flanders Paper states, that the plan of cutting a canal at Brussels, to be navigated by mrrchantmen tf between 400 and 500 tons bui den, or even by fright !, fully r'ggesl and armed, is prosecuting with actieity. Accounts were received in town yesterd ,y, from Enterprise India steam vessel, dated just as the post leaving Falmouth, on Tuesday; scat ng that - every son was embarked, and as the wind, thought Stijl curly, Vk as light, the vessel' would leave t%i4 'Mgt Unit attest' ou.
