BATREUTII, AUG. 1 g —A private letter states—" It is not proitabie that the pubic n•ill ever obtain a detailed Litowledge of the questions which hive been discover! at Carlsbad. DJ not expect that any official declaration whatever mill be made by the Ministers on the object of their conferences : they only concerted, but withaut any formal deliberations or deci,ions." Extract of a letter from New York, date,l 2-111 July :—" By letters from Buenos-Ayres, under date of the May, we learn, that the Minister of Chili had officially notified to N. NV. Strong,Esq. act ing as A merican Consul at Buenos Ayres, that the coast of Peru was blockaded by the navel force of his government. This act bears date, St. Jago, April 20." By aarices from New York it is stated, that Lord Cochrane has taken an American vessel, the Monte zuma schooner, of Baltimore. The cause of this capture is not given, but it is supposed for a,vinla tion of his blockade of the west coat of South America. The Patriot frigate Cnriazo had sailed from Bue nos-Avres in May to join Lord Cochrane off Lima. The Horatio ve• remained in port under the Ame rican flag, and was commanded by Captain Skinner. Letters have been received from the Cape of Good Hope of 9.(ith May, with enclosures to a late date front Ceylon, where tranquillity was in so great a measure restored, that all the troops which had been sent there fr. in India had returned. The naval store-slip, Mk, Captain t 1 illiam Ilarrisen, arrived at the Cape of Good Hope, from Cork, the middle of May, and was to proceed immetikitely to the island of Ceylon. The free triolers, Langton and Maiskrs, were at the Cape the same time; these ships have on hoard dztachments of the 45th regiment, to be stationed at the above island. The Dauntless man of war, Eion. Capt. Cordon, was at the Cape of G oo d Hop e the middle of May, having on board Major-General Sir Ettware Barnes and suite, for Ceylon. Lieut.-Col.

By the last Quebec papers it appears, that on the 25th of July a public meeting was convened, fur the purpose of establishing a Society, under the title of the Quebec Emigrant Society, (in connexion and correspondence with those already existing, or which may be formed hereafter in those provinces), for the purpose of affording employment, information, and assistance, to destitute settlers in Quebec and its neighbourhood. Certain resolutions were immedi ately entered into, and the Society was regularly constituted. IJp to the 30th July, 8,123 settlers had arrived at Quebec from Great Britain, this year. Extract of a letter dated Lytham, near Preston, Sept. I. This morning I have witnessed the me ancholy spectacle cf a shipwreck. 'the vessel is the Albion, bound from Antigua to London. The captain of the ship, with five sailors and three pas. sengers, have been drowned. The latter were a Mr. Nicholls, with his two daughters, whom he was bringing to England to receive their education." Letters received in the city from Port-au-Prince Mate, that Gen. M`Gregor had gone away is the ship Hero, belonging to a house in London; that he took advantage of the captain being on shore, and had proceeded to sea.

We understand that it is in contemplation to erect, by subscription, upon Aconbary Hill, Here fotdshire, a rough massy column, to commemorate the battle of Waterloo. The Governor's of Guy's Hospital have patriotically given the site and stone for the purpose. We presume this pillar will be similar to that upon Bryddir-hill, in Shropshire, built to commemorate the battle of Lord Rodney.

DISTRESSING CASE. —On Wednesday afternoon last, as Finkle and Jackson, two officers in tha em ploy of the Nlendicity Society, were coming through the fields at the back of Sadler's-wells, they observed an interesting female stretched across the path, quite mute, and apparently dead: they were about to g.) tar a surgeon, when the poor creature began to show symptoms of returning animation, and accordingly they took her up in their arms, and conveyed her to a house in the neighbourluid, where, after taking some refreshment, she was able to accompany them to the Lace, in Ided-Lion-square. site gave her name, Mary Smith, and said, that her husband, by trade a bricklayer, had been dead about three months when, being unable to support herself, or three chil dren, she had left the latter in Woolwich poorhouse, and proceeded on tint to her husband's parish at Dunstable ; but the overseers refused to relieve her, unless she brought down her children. According. ly, she was compelltxl to retrace her steps to town, without a farthing in her pockets, and had reached those fields, when nature being quite exhausted site fainted away, and would have died, had it not been fur the timely interference of the officers. The gen tlemen in attendance gave her food, and halfa.crown for her present support, till she can be passed to her family as comfortably as is in tae 'toner of the SJ ciety.
