In the exposition hereby offered of the till now hidden truths of nature, of human disappointments and their ways of relief, it is not contended that every reader shall become his or her own physician any more than their own lawyer, but it is insisted upon that we should know the simple principles of our owu organization, the laws whereby our existence and the issue thereof in their several healthy states depend, the duties that are expected of us in our individual capacities in the family circle, and the terms on which the health and happiness of the present and future race of mankind have to rely.

S. ARRIVAL of the GREAT BRITAIN, IMPORTANT FROM MEXICO. CAPTURE OF MgAMORAS, AND BLOCKADE OF VERA CR BY THE AMERICANS. (From our loverpool Correspondent.) .s LIVERPOOL, MONDAY. The steam. ship Great Britain; Captain Hosken, arrived here this morning, after a rapid passage of thirteen days and a quarter from New York. She sailed from that eity at three o'clock, on the Bth, passed Sandy Hook in two hours, and arrived • off the N.W. Lightship, at Liverpool, this morning, at four o'clock. She brings forty-five passengers, all of whom were delighted with the easy and beautiful voyage of this noble ship. Captain Hosken, when off Liverpool, was presented with a complimentary address, signed by all his passengers. Just before the Great Britain got away from New York,:a special messenger arrived there with dispatches from Mr. Pakenham, at Washington. Shortly after the Great Britain arrived, Captain Hosken started for London with these dispatches, which are said to, be of an important character. Our advices by this arrival contain accounts from Mexico down to the 16th, from Vera Cruz to the 20th, and from New Orleans to the 31st ; and the principal feature of interest which this arrival affords is that the Americans had, without resistance, invested Matamoras, and that the port of Vera Cruz was under a rigid blockade by the American squadron. The accounts by this arrival state that on the 17th ult. a large portion of General Taylor's army moved up the river for the purpose of crossing, General Taylor remaining at the fortification with about 300 men. As the army were seen by the Mexicans on the opposite side to leave the encamp ment and approach the ford, Arista sent a flag of truce to General Taylor, requesting an armistice for six weeks; giving as a reason for his request, that he desired to communicate with his Government. General Taylor answered that he would give him till eight o'clock the next morning to evacuate the city of Mate mores, and would permit him to take the public property under his charge. The flag then returned. On the next day, the 18th ult., the army crossed on flats of their own construction, and the bodies of waggons caulked. The passage was made about four miles above Fort Brown. On arriving . at the city it was discovered that Arista with his forces had departed,leaving only the mounted batteries. All the mortars and such of the military apparatus as could net be moved, in their haste to escape, were thrown into the wells. A party from the American army went out to recon noitre immediately after the entrance into Matamoras, and overtook a party of the retreating Mexicans, twenty-two of whom were made prisoners. It is understood that Arista's head-quarters were at SanFernnado, about ninetymiles distant from Matamoras. Of the United States squadron, lately off the Rio Grande, the Cumberland flag-ship, Raritan, St. Mary's, Lawrence, and Somers, had gone to Pensacola to refit. The Mexican soldiers, it is said, refused to defend Matamoras against the American army, having had no rations served out to them for five days. Commander Conner, as the report went at the seat of war, intended to take down with him, in his contem plated attack on San Juan de Ulloa, two or three line-of battle ships with the squadron he is refitting at Pensacola. According to the accounts thus received, it appears that the Mexicans are straining every nerve to carry on the war, and Paredes will probably continue to do so, till perhaps he hears of the severe defeats his troops have suffered at the hands of the Americans, in order to sustain his administra tion. To do this, he has resorted to extraordinary measures to replenish the national treasury, by extorting from the people and the clergy. Paredes reached his present position by inflaming the minds of the Mexicans against the United States; and as he acquired power by promising tc, enter into a war, for the purpose of recovering the depart ment of Texas, there is no doubt that he will do his utmost to protract it as long as he can, or until a new revolution shall break out, which places some other man in his place. Our advices from New Orleans are to the 30th, given in the Commercial Times. The barque Thalens, Captain Murrell, from Vera Cruz, arrived in New Orleans On the 30th ult., with papers from the city of Mexico to the 15th, and from Vera Cruz to the 20th ult. We learn that the United States steam frigate Mississippi arrived at Vera Cruz on the 18th, with the news of the bril liant battles of the Bth and 9th ult. The greatest care was taken to keep it from the Mexi cans, yet the fact leaked out. The port of Vera Cruz has been rigidly blockaded by the steam frigate Mississippi and sloop of war Falmouth. The frigate Raritan was hourly expected to join the Mississippi and Falmouth. The Mexican Government had annulled the powers of the American Consuls, Orders had been received from the city of Mexico, directing all Americans to leave Vera Cruz by the 24th ult. Mr. Dimond, the American consul, was preparing to go on board one of the United States vessels of war. It was generally thought that the American vessels left in port, the barque Louisiana and the brig Helen McLeod, would be seized by the Mexicans. The contractor Of supplies MT the American equadron bad been forbidden by the Vera Cruz authorities, to furnish them. The Thalens was boarded off the harbour of Vera Cruz by the United States sloop Falmouth, and a letter bag sent by her. The brig St. Petersburgh sailed on the 19th for New York. The Republican°, of the city of Mexico, of the 13th, says that the intention of the Government was to send their war steamers Guadaloupe and Montezuma to Havannah to be sold at auction. On arriving at the latter port, the steamers were to hoist the Mexican flag and fire a salute. The Mexican sailors refused to sail under these conditions, and the steamers were to leave the river Alvarado, where they had been laid up in ordinary under the British flag, and commanded by a British officer. They have since arrived at Havannah. We have been permitted to make the following extract from a letter received from a highly respectable Mexican house in this city:— Vera Cruz, May 19, 1846. A circular has been issued by ' the Govermiaent, stating that all American Consuls cease immediately from being recognisec', and ordering all American citizens to embark for the interior within eight days. The steamer Mississippi yesterday ordered off a vessel from 'the port, but she came in during the night—thus proving the port to be blockaded, at least to national vessels, a step which has generally compromised the American ves sels in the harbour, and we are very much afraid, that we shall not be allowed to dispatch the Thaleus. The Government is making every effort to carry out the war with success, and has replenished the treasury by carry ing through some very strong measures. The castle of San Juan d'Ulloa and the city are in as ex cellent state of defence, and would require a very strong force to be successfully attacked. The Republicano of the city of Mexico contains an article against the Government, in which it animadverts upon the actual state of the country, a tt a cked as it is by a strong enemy and with a prospe c t of a local revolution, it avers that in case of a revolution, the troops engaged in repelling the enemy would be ordered to act in support of either one party or the other, claiming a local supremacy as a proof of the discipline and manner in which the Mexican troops are trained by their officers. Jon Jose Maria has been named as the Governor of Chi huahua tn the defeat of Sonora. The Apachs Indians have attacked the town of Arlo, where they killed thirty- two Mexicans, the Indians stealing everything they could lay their hands upon. The Apaches are uniformed in a broadcloth frock covered with red facing, and p an t a l o ons of the same stuff with caps, and they are fitted with r ifl es . The whole department is in a dreadful state of misery and consternation. Several robberies on a large scale have been lately com mitted in the city of Mexico and its neighbourhood. In speaking of the American army, a dispatch from the Mexican commandant of the engineers at Matamoras says— " The American army is not more Qum 4,000 strong, and is in a state of demoralisation ; that there is no union among them, without any desire for glory; that its officers are good, but then there are many of them who have come to fight against their will. If we have no local revolution, the Ame rican army will either capitulate, or be entirely defeated in twenty day s." The exportefrom Vera Cruz in the month of April amounted to 241,356 dols., of which 195,127 dols. was in specie. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

The war in Mexico goes on prosperou sl y for the American arms, and the disorganization of the American forces sees complete. On the 19th ult., General Taylor took possession of Mata moros without encountering any resistance, and, in like manner, the operations of the column below on the right bank of the river have been unimpeded since it entered the small town of Barra& We have no tidings yet of any blockade of the Mexican ports having been declared or instit u t e d, b u t are i n d a il y expectation o+ an official notific a ti on th ereo f . M eant i me, while the American squadron had gone from Vera Cruz to the mouth of the Rio Grande, or rather to Brazos St. lago, in order to aid General Taylor, the two Mexican steamers, Montezuma and Guadeloupe, took advantage of their ab sence to slip out under English colours and reach H . avannah. Their right to hoist English colours would certainly have been questioned if they had been fallen in with by our cruisers. The impression seems very general since the arrival of the Ilibeitia, that Mr. Pakenham has received instructions for a prompt arfd amicable termination of the Oregon contro versy—a result alike desirable and desired, we apprehend, by both nations. Our money and produce markets were very little affected by the Hibernia's accounts. Cotton has been more active, and considerable sales have been made without any sustained advance ; and the prices here yet range too high to allow of any advantageous shipment to Europe at prices prevailing there at the latest date. Bread stuffs are declining, and flour is selling at from 46 1 A to 37! cents. The receipts here continue large, and, not withstanding some croaking, the general prospects of the growing crop are good. Rye has been somewhat more in demand, and some 3,000 quarters have been taken for exportation at 65 cents. the bushel. • Money is rather more easy. Exchange on London is at from to 84 premium ;on Pa r i s 5,32 to 5,0 the statement 32 1 / 2 cents. t The United States Treasury, according of the treasurer on the Ist instant, h a d on hand some e l even millions of dollars, which will be reinforced before long by the issue of some millions of Treasury notes, a form of loan which, as furnishing a sort of currency of uniform value all over the Union, has many advantages. The prices of otocka generally have improved within the DIVISION OF PROFITS.

For a small loan of between three and four hundred thouiand dollars at five per cent., needed by this State to pay off some balances due to contractors on the public works, no bids were made on the terms required by the notice, fire per cent. and not below par. This is not surprising, considering that the actual value of money is great just now and the general expectation, if the war with Mexico continue any time, that the United States Government will need loans on which a higher interest will be offered. A preference more. over is given to the Stocks of the United States over that of any State. • An attempt - is to be made next week to call up and pass the Bill in the House of Representatives for modifying the tariff. Its success must be considered doubtful, seeing that the results to the Treasury have been very advantageous without obvious injury to any other interest. At a moment when all the resources of revenue are needed, it does not seem probable, that on grounds of merely speculative evil and theoretical inequality and oppressiveness, a con gress of practical men will enter ou the experiment of altering a law, that furnishes such ample supplies to the Exchequer.

The twelfth annual meeting of the Proprietors of the Bank of Australasia was held yesterday, at their office, 8, Austin friars, Alderman Sir George Carroll in the chair. The usual preliminaries having been gone through, The SECRETARY proceeded to read the following report : " 1. The directors regret, that in presenting their twelfth annual report to the proprietors, they are unable t o make any satisfactory statement of their proceedings for the past year. " 2. Although the agricultural interests of the Australasian colonies, from the increased prices of land and stock, have very much improved, trade generally has been limited in ex tent; the amount of unemployed capital has still further re duced the value of money; and the profit arising from Ex change operations, hitherto productive of much advantage, has, from untoward causes in the past year, been greatly diminished. " 3 The Proprietors are aware that, during the past year, the debt owing by the Bank of Australia has been the sub ject of two most irksome and expensive trials. On the first trial, the jury were discharged, from being unable to agree on a verdict. On the second trial (which was a trial at bar), the justice of our claim was completely established, so fas as such object could be obtained by the verdict of a jury : the Court, at the same time, expressing . their opinion, that the entire sum claimed by us, had gone in reduction of the debts of the Bank of Australia; andjhat the conduct of our superintendent, Mr. Hart, had, throughout his transac tions with that bank, been straightforward and creditable to him. "4. The legal objection taken on the first trial, namely, that the directors of the Bank of Australia had no power to borrow, was again urged on the second trial, and the ma jority of the Court agreeing in that objection, the verdict was taken in such a way, that the question might be raised on appeal before the Privy Council. " 5. The directors, on hearing the result of the new trial, took immediate steps for hastening the appeal proceedings before the Privy Council; and the proprietors may be as• sured that every exertion will be made to bring the matter to the earliest possible termination. The directors are con firmed in their hopes of ultimate success by the honest view taken of their case by the jury, and by the renewed opinions of the eminent counsel consulted by them in this country as to their right to recover. " 6. The directors now present, as usual, a statement of the accounts for the year ending the 13th of October, 1845: The Balance of Bad-debt Fund, on the 14th of October, 1844 Received since, on Debts considered irre• 444 13 2 coverable The Rest, or Undivided Profit on the 14th of October, 1844, amounted to 10'2,966 7 10 To which are now to be added the profits realised both in the colonies and in Lou don, to the 13th of October, 1845, after de fraying all expenses of management in curred 31,083 6 1 £149,807 0 7 Deduct therefrom the following payments to the proprietors, viz.:— April dividend, 1845... £27,000 0 0 October dividend, 1845 13,500 0 0 .40,500 0 0 Leaving the sum of £109,307 0 7 applicable to the payment of dividends, and to meet bad debts. But when the directors look to the diminished profits for the past year, to the further development of losses, and to the heavy additional expenditure incurred by the legal proceedings in the suit . against the Bank of Australia, they feel that they afe best consulting the future prosperity and standing of the corporation, by declaring their intention to suspend for the present the payment of dividends. 7. The directors have come to this conclusion after much consideration, and with feelings of deep regret ; at the same time they are convinced, that under the circumstances above detailed, and more especially with reference to the restric tions of the charter, the proprietors will be satisfied that no other course was open to them, and they may rest assured that it will be a matter of sincere congratulation to the di rectors to find, that such suspension should be of short duration. " 8. An account of the assets and liabilities of the Bank is now submitted. ASSETS.

During the past year the business of the Bank, though comparatively of small amount, has been of a safe and legiti mate character, the deposits have materially increased, and the properties held in security for debts have improved in value, but the field for banking, at present open in the Colo nies, not being sufficient to afford full employment for the capital, a large portion of it has accumulated in London, which the directors feel it their duty to reserve under their own control, at immediate call, in order to enable them to take advantage of any opportunity which may occur, for the enlargement of their operations in Australasia. (Signed) " G. CARROLL, Chairman." After some little discussion, the report was agreed to, and the meeting having passed a vote of thanks to the Chairman, separated. COURT CIRCULAR.

THE LATE MYSTERIOUS SUlClDE.—Yesterday Mr. W. Carter concluded an inquiry at the Royal Oak, Granby street, Waterloo-road, Lambeth, on the body of Thomas Avery, aged 28 years, who died under very mysterious cir cumstances, some particulars of which appeared in The Sun , a few days ago. Emma Avery, of the King's Head Hotel , Lymington, Hampshire, stated that the deceased was her brother. He was valet to a gentleman at Southampton, but had recently left his situation. He had left home about four weeks since, and had not been seen since. The family were not aware that he was in London. When he left home he had 401. , in notes, which he had taken out of the bank. He was quite a stranger in London, and had never been in town before. Mr. J. Sewell, surgeon. of Lower Marsh, Lambeth, deposed to making an analysis of the contents of the stomach, and was satisfied that the deceased died from the effects of oxalic acid taken into the stomach. Other evi dence hfriing been adduced, the jury returned a verdict that "The deceased destroyed his own life with poison, but in what state of mind he was in at the time there was no evi dence to prove."

Patent Sectional Transferable Railway Carriages for car rying Goods, either on the Broad or Narrow Gauge. TO TfIE RIGHT 110NOIMABLIL THE EARL OF DALtioustr.,. &c. &c. &c. Railway Department, Board of Trade, Whitehall, May 8, 1846. My Lord,—Captain Powell, of the Grenadier Guards, called, upon me to- day with models and drawings to explain the pa tent sectional transferable railway carriages proposed by him. for conveying goods on railways, which consist of covered boxes, or bodies, two of which placed longitudinally will fit upon a truck or under-carriage, having two pairs of wheels suited to the narrow gauge, whilst three such bodies placed transversely, will fit upon a truck having three pairs of wheels suited to the broad gauge of the Great Western Railway. He proposes that these bodies shall be conveyed from the ware houses of manufacturers and others, previously packed by the owners themselves, on common carriage-frames with four wheels drawn by horses, and that when they arrive at a rail way station they shall be transferred to the truck belonging to whichever gauge is used thereon ; and under the supposition of their making a journey on a line commencing with one of these gauges, and arriving at a station where there is a break of gauge, they may be transferred from the trucks of a nar row gauge line to those of a broad gauge one, or vice versa, at a crossing of the two lines made for the purpose, from. whence they can be' turned into the new direction required, by means of common turntables. This arrangement will re. e a l n v d tr m oc o k v s a to ble be bo fi d tt ie e s d for for r t a b i e lw p ay urp o o se se t , o anreceive quire the owners o f goo d s to prov id e themselves with car. arilasgoer-efqraumireesnwilt such bodies. The latter are proposed to be moved by means of small pulleys from one carriage, or railway truck, to another, guided- by little rails, and are kept in position by movable ends and sides, first to be let down, and afterwards turned up and pinned, whilst they are prevented from jump. ing by dovetailed grooves, which in the small models exhi bited by the inventor, admit of those movable bodies being turned upside down without their falling off. He considers that it would be very advantageous for the Government to have carriages and movable bodies of this description, for gunpowder and other stores, as well as for the baggage .01* troops. Very great accuracy would be required in all the fitments .proposed by him, which are very ingenious, but as to how far they might answer in railway practice I cannot venture to give an opinion. I recommended him to apply to Seine railway company to give his invention a trial, which he says he has done by reference to the Great Western. He wished me tosecommend it, which I declined, as I informed him it had been the rule of this department not to urge the-adop tion of untried inventions involving expense by any railway company; but that I would report to your Lordship upon it, which rnow do. It would be difficult to explain more than the general principle of Captain Powell's arrangements by words, even with the aid of drawings ; but should your Lordship wish tt. form a clear idea of them, the models prepared by him will enable you to understand them thoroughly.—l have, &c. - -- (Signed) C. w.
