lb. $l3 ' AMERICAN PAPERS: NEW YORK, OCT. 11.—The Right Hon. Strat. ford Canning, his Britannic Majesty's Minister, passed thrinh the upper part of our city yesterday on his way from Boston to the seat of Government, having remained only a few moments at the British Consul's. It was his Excellency's intention to have remained here some time, but on account of the present calamity he passes min to Philadelphia. We are happy to learn, that the Minister is much grati fied by the attentions he every where received. Ocer. 12.—1 n puntuance of the recommendation of the City Authority, yesterday was observed as a day of humiliation and river. The churches of different denominations of Christians, except those which have been necessarily closed for some ssctks pest, in consequence of the prevalence of the fever, were opened, and religious services attended. The occasion was peculiarly solemn and interesting. The long continuance of destructive disease, the alarm created by it, the necessity fin- so large a number of the inhabitants to leave their homes and occup.tions, and to submit to all the inconveniences amid other eonseqtionces of a sudden dispersion ; the interrup tion of the ordinary business and pursuits of life. the losses and misfortunes which must necessarily flow fioul such a state of things, the distresses of the poor, the sufferings of the sick, and the lots of lives —all united to render the period interesting, the duty obvious, and the exercises solemn and impres- CHARLESTON, SEPT. 28 —Des r num, e STORW —One of the most, destructive storms of wind and rain was experienced last night and this morning, that has ever, within the recollection of the oldest inhabitants, occurred in this city. The wind coin inenced.blowing about eleven o'clock from the north east, with violence, and shifting to the north and north-west, raged with the most ungovernable fury, but principally from the north-west, until about half past two o'clock this morning. The prevalence of the storm solely from these points, without the wind veering round to the north-east and east, is thought very extraordinary. It is owing to this fact that its destructive effects have been experienced chiefly within the city, and particularly in those parts of it most exposed to the west and northwest. The damage sustained by the-shipping in the hare lour has, from this cause, not been very extensive. —The sheet of tin which covered the cupola of the circular church in Meeting-street, about 20 feet in circumference, and which was well fastened round with brass nails, three or fimr inches in length, was completely torn up by the fury of the storm, and carried through the air into Queen-street, a dis tame of about 100 yards. The iron vane at the top of St. Michael's church has been considerably bent, and the top of St. Philip's church has been taken away. (Here follow details of the destruction and damage of shipping, plantations, and hotthee ; also of the loss of lives. They appear to have been very extensive There was but one stroke of lightning during the raging of the storm, and that struck the United States' schooner Grampus, amid shivered her mizen topmast. The tide rose and fell, about one o'clock, six feet in 45 minutes. Havannah Papers have been received at Charles ton on the 20th September, in which it is said that a Spanish schooner had arrived at that port on the Gil of that month, in 14 days from Vera Crux and Tampico, with intelligence that a very severe action had taken place between the troops under General Guadeloupe Victoria and the Imperialists, in which the latter were completely defeated. We have in our hands Vera Cruz papers to the ;nd of Auger, and find no mention in them of such an action. We have conversed with au intelligent gentleman who left Vera Cruz about the same date, !laving just ar rived there front the city of Mexico. He furnishes set intelligence of the kind, but doubts whether Vic toria was in force in any part of the country. He thinks, however, the Imperial Government must miscarry tier want of funds. The troops were with out pay ; resort had been had to forced loans, but these formed only a sin ill sum—the opulent people conceeled their resources ; the mines could yield very little until steuni-engiues were obtained to 4 leer them ofobstructions, and work there properly; i i short, I tarbide was reduced to alarming straits, a id the detrust in the stalelity of his power w a s al most universal.—Pkiladelphia Gazelle. BAR,NCAS, NI.AR PLNSACOLA, SEPT. 6.—Since I had the pleasure of writing to you last, a terrible epidemic has visited Pensacola, and committed great devastation among the Americans in that place, the Creoles being generally exempt from it. About 150 have, in twenty days, been consigned to the tomb, and as many as eighteen base fallen in a single day. Never, perhaps, was a fever more universally Keel, utterly defying the aid of medicine; no itistaece of a recovery after un Leta, k has occurred, and releoes who have lived in New Orleans, and the West In dies. pesituunce its inurtality and rapid termination unexenipled. We .received, sea The National Ate!firmer, New Orle a n s P a p ers to the Anil of September, yes• terday, at which time, it grieves us to say, the deaths from yellow fever alone amounted to eight or ten per day. Our Havannah papers are from the 12th to the 20th of September, both inclusive; they consist of three different publications, but contain nothing new. In one of them we are presented with a sum mary of the burials in the general cemetery, from the 2d of February, 1806, to the 30th of June, 1822. The whole number is 58,090, of which 25,000 were whites. Front 1806 to 1814, the annual number was from 2,300 to 3,000; and from that period to the commencement of the present year, front 3,150 to 1,590. The number of adults were double the number of children, with .referenee to both colours. The largest number of deaths was in the year 1819. Thus we observe, that in this single buriul-place, the number of interments, in less than 16 years, nearly equals the whole population of this city. Mexico (ALTATIADO), SEPT. 12.—1 t appears, that since the first meeting of the Mexican Congress, that cordial harmony and confidence, so desirable between the Legislative and Executive Powers, were not to be found ; but on the contrary, mutual distrust and discontent prevailed. The steps which led to the coronation of the kmperor are already known. On the 26:h of August, the Executive Govern ment caused to be arrested from 45 to 50 individuals, among whim were 15 Members of the Congress, then sitting in the city of Mexico. The next duy a proclamation, signed by the Minister of State was issued, announcing to the public as the cause of this measure, the existence of a conspiracy against the Government. After some days, the Congress pre sented to the Emperor a memorial, praying that their fellow members in captivity should be brought to trial—punished if guilty, and liberated if innocent. The reply to this document was by no means fa vourable; it threw reflections on the whole body.— These aorta cannot fail to have a striking eflect on commerce, which is in a li,nguid state. The castle of St. Juan de lilloa remains in pos session of the Spaniards; the garrison, not exceed ing 300 men, exacts of vessels entering 50 cents per tun, tonnage money, and five per cent. on the in voice value on all importation. Extract of a letter from Havannah, Sept. 20. " I avail myself of the departure of the brig Maas° to inform you, that by a recent regulation of our Custom-House, a deposit of foreign goods will be established here, by which all i,sooda, with the ex- ' ception of provisions, may be deposited fur one year tree of duty ; and if re-exported during that time, to pay only two per cent. storage. This law is to go into operation during next month, and promises to be of the most beneficial consequences to this city. —A loan to the Government of the island for three hundred thousand dollars has been subscribed among the merchants, bearing to per cent interest." FROM POUT() !hco.—The New York Mercantile Advertiser states that the visit of the Cayenne to the above place was received in a friendly manner; but that there is no prospect of obtaining redress for the depredations which have been committed on our commerce by the privateers of the island, otherwise than from the Spanish Government. The new Governor, Gen. La Torres, has arrived, and expressed much disapprobation of the piracies that had been permitted, and a determination to put a stop to them. FROIT,—We learn with pleasure from the neigh hourhuoil of this city, that on this island, in New Jersey, and on Long Island, the night before last, there was nut only frost, Litt ice as thick as a quarter of a duller.—New York Paper.

The affair of Mr. Bowring's imprisonment remait.s in slain quo—he is not yet at large, nor has the alleged cause of his arrest been promulgated; we are therefore still without grounds on which to ffirm a judgment upon its justice. Mr. Hunt will make his public entry into Lon don to-morrow, and thousands of industrious men will be induced to wrongtheir families, by a day of idleness, for the sake of seeing a man, for whom nobody would ever have cared a pinch of Scotch snuff but for the commisseration excited by the vil lanous persecutions he has undergone. It is reported that the Congress at Verona his been abruptly broken up, and that the Duke of Wcl lington is on his way back—thol Congress was called by the mandate of the Emperor of Russia, the Emperor of Austria, the King of Prussia, and the King of France, as the four Potentates forming what they are pleased most lyingly to denominate " The Holy Alliance"—it was officially declared that the English Constitution forbad the King of Eng land to become u party to any such compact, and yet the English Cabinet sends the Duke of Wel lington to attend the Congress!—fur what ?we would ask—have their continued efforts so lowered Old England in continental estimation, as to induce the issuing of an order to our Court fur the attend ance of its diplomatic agent to receive as oracular communications the determinations of "The Holy ..... Alliance," on points connected with British inte rests; ur is the British spirit to perfectly subdued by misrule, by poverty, and tri:sevy produced by its Government, us to be unequal to the assertion of ENGLAND'S mown, in opposition to ally act or declaration un the part of these congressional ruffians which might militate against them ?—..To these ... ~- - ~ i
