We have received papers from New York to the 14th, and from Boston to the 15th ultimo. The attention of the community of merchants in the United States is directed towards the new tariff of increased duty on the importation of manufactured articles, which was introduced into the House of Representatives, and passed in that portion of the legislature, during the last Session of Congress. The object of the merchants is to procure the presentation of petitions to Congress against the revival of the bill in the session which is about to commence. In one of the reports of a meeting of merchants, held at Portsmouth (New Hampshire) cn the 11th ultimo, they declare that thty believe the passing of such an act to be unjust in principle, partial in operation, and repugnant to the free institutions of the United States; that its avowed object, that of protection and encouragement of domestic manufactures, is, in ef fect, granting exclusive privileges to one class of the community at ate expense of the others; that it tends to produce confusion and embarrassment in other departments of national industry, and to ex haust other important sources of national wealth; that it is uncongenial with the habits, and ruinous to the interests, of a people who have been taught to seek their means of subsistence in the pursuits rf agriculture, commerce, and the mechanic arts; and that, finally, among other evil effects of such a mea sure, it would occasion frequent violations of law, inducements to smuggling, disregard of oaths, and eventual diminution of the public revenue. The embarrassments in the finances of the United States arise, it is said, from the deficiency of the revenue for the first six months of 1820, compared with the same period for 1819; so that either a loan, or an appropriation from the sinking fund, is considered indispensable. The city of Savannah, in addition to its suffetings from fever, which still continued, has been visited by a dreadful storm, which did immense damage to the buildings, and wrecked a great num ber of vessels is the harbour. The storm is supposed to have lien still more fatal further to the southward In a letter from New Orleans it is stated that the fever raging there has assumed a character as de structive as the plague in the Barbary States, and that not more than one is ten of the new comers, who had the temerity to remain during the sickly season, have escaped. Further details had reached New York of the destructive fire in Nova Sootia, which is stated to have spread its ravages for near lOU miles in extent in the anat fertile portion of the north and western parts, front the neiahbourhoadl of Yarmouth to the county of Annapolis. The fire . continued burning for three days ; and such was its intensity, that the very potatoes (says the New York paper) were burnt in the earth: hauses, barns, fences, fields. of grain, stock of all kind., whole village.; and settlements, tell a prey to the flames. The pr o j ec t of the American governmara for restoring the ne groes to their native country, according to the last adviees received at Washington from the African coast, was in danger of failure, on account of the mortality which the climate had caused among those persons !prolate!' to superintend it. The intelli gence from the Spanish Alain contained in these papers is not of later data than has been received direct in this country. It is stated that the Spanish Cortea %vho have abandoned the design at' sending out a force front Europe for the subjugation of the colonies, hat e given instructions to the Governors of Havanna!t and of Vera Cras to supply their adhe rents in the province of renexuela with 100,000 e a ;;!ars par month, to enable them to continue the TIM NATIONAL REGISTER contest. This statement, bovrever, does not appear to be entitled to credit. The Ministerial Papers having industriously cir culated malicious reports among the enemies of her Majesty, with regard to the several denominations of the officers of the Queen's household. we think it right to state, fbr the information of those who may wish to know the truth, that, according to established ' usage, no person under the rank of 13igl Honoura ble can enjoy the title of her Majesty's Chamber lain. It is in consequence of this that all persons so employed, below that rank, arc Styled Vice-Cham berlains in this country, though, that title being unknown on the Continent, it is usual to employ the word Chamberlain alone.—The customary form used either for invitations or on business, in her Ma jesty's family, has invariably been, either that "Lady —, the Lady in Waiting," or. " Vice.Cham " berlain to the Queen, is commanded to invite," &c. &c. &c ; and this has never been departed from, unless, as in the case of an advertisement which apprared a kw days the Vice-Chamberlains happened not to havJ been present in person at the tvriting of the paragraph. The same system of etiquette, without any change, has constantly regu lated all such communications from her Majesty, both sinoe her return to England, and previous to her departure for the Continent. On Friday and Saturday nights partial illumina tions tool: place, but as this evening will be more brilliant, from the time allowed for preparation, we shall defer our account of them till our next. Wo regret to add, that several houses, including the Pout, Courier, and Net. Times offices, were injured in consequence of their obstinately refusing to sbew deference to the general feeling. From the Columbian Republic, August 25.—The Oconoco Courier contains a long official article on the distribution of the public lands ; it consists of fourteen articles, and determines the portion of laud which every officer, non-commissioned officer, and soldier is to have. The Government of the Colum bian Republic have determir - 4 that every male shall become a land proprietor, and the land is bestowed without charge to the individual. The convention for !brining a new constitution, in the represen tative form, will assemble at Cucuta, on the Ist of January, 1621. The Commandant of the frigate Andes informs the General commanding at Choco, that the Republican troops had attacked the Royal ists, commanded by Balveide, in Guapy, Trombequi. and Zaigu, and after having taken their Csmamand• ant and many prisoners, put them to the route; the President, who had b.:en preparing a flotilla, had left with a small party of horse in the night, on some new expedition.
