TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR,— Amongst the improvements suggested at the British Museum, I beg leave to recommend that a printed catalogue be made, as soon as possible, of the paintings placed round the gallery, which is over the King's Library, of the length of three hundred feet, consisting of portraits of the Royal Family, and of distinguished literary characters, with the names under them of the persons represented, of the painters, and of the donors. It is a very interesting collection, but requires the assistance of a printed catalogue to be published, as, from the want of it, much of its interest is lost. Another advantage will probably accrue from the publication of a printed catalogue, namely, that individuals possessing por traits of the above description, will be induced, from public spirit, to present them to the British Museum, towards fill ing the spaces at present unoccupied. AN AMATEUR. NATIONAL LOAN FUND ASSLT- RANCE. (From the Dublin Freeman's Journal.) Politics pervade the entire social system of Ireland in all its relations, and operate to the prejudice of the nation's best elements of strength, wisdom, and happiness. They engross the active energies, mental and physical, of the country. All the enterprises, all the exertions of the na tion are engaged in the attempt to create and to maintain a political existence. Like the inmates of a blockaded for tress, the entire population seem to have but one aim and end —that of self-defence, while every effort and art which would sustain and enable life are forgotten. The current money, as well as the current laws, has been hitherto used as an in strument by the rich man to make the poor man poorer, and the weak still feebler ; while the intellect, which is de voted to the effort, would have been able to remove the impediments which beset the path of the latter, and thrust him out from every resource, has been wasted in the vast arena of political strife. The classes in Ireland which ought to be the produc tive classes—the classes which really are productive for every purpose but their own comfort—have ever been de nounced as an improvident race ; while the simple but sad truth is that the rich English—their taskmasters at home and abroad—have, exerted their utmost skill to make them what they are represented to be. The relative posi tion of the parties may suggest the utility of this to a nar row mind, and selfishness has adopted the suggestion as a law. In ordinary transactions, embracing opposite interests, the poorer, the feebler, and the more reckless sub- serve to the advantage of others ; and what is true of individuals is true of states and nations. The powerful has an accumulating advantage in the multi plied exhaustion of its dependent, when their union is so unnatural as to leave them separate interests, The monied party in England have made this maxim, sel fish and narrow as it is, the basis, and an improvement of its results, the bond of connexion between the two countries. Those who thus beggared the people attributed their misery to their own turbulence, " which scared away all capita lists," while, in fact, the turbulence was an imaginary and wicked creation of their own, for the very purpose they seemed to deprecate ; and the same jealous iniquity which shut the serfs of the soil out from education closed the door on every hope of gain. The laws against the possession of property may not seem so barbarous as those against the acquirement of knowledge ; for, while the acquisition of the table of multiplication was rewarded by the gallows, if the knowledge was possessed by a Catholic, he only incurred the fin:Pitt/re of an estate in land, should he be wicked enough to acquire it ; still the apparent mildness of the latter enactment operated through a vigilant spirit of plun der which made it equally effectual with the other. But when the object of both was effected, the object itself was made, in turn, a crime—the people were called " savages" and " beggars," and as the code of blood relaxed, and the statute book was relieved from its curse, the code of preju dice and libel succeeded, and the lies of newspapers conti nued what tyranny began. Very recently, however, a spirit of liberality and enter prise combined has begun to trample on the prejudice of ages, and seeks a generous speculation in partnership with an impoverished country. In this honest policy the ".ra tional Bank (f Ireland" has been the first successful expe riment. The great principle of that establishment was to make the people sharers in itg benefit, and give them an in terest in its success. Already has the wisdom of the course become apparent in the profits of the establishment, but, above all, in the protection it has afforded the poor—the cabins it has defended against the revenge of wicked land lords, and the spirit of enterprise and hope which it has in fused into the oppressed. On the same principle—on a still broader principle, car rying the means of acquiring a competence lower down in the scale, opening accesses to the scantiest resources, and creating, as it were, one vast speculation, in which the na tion at large may engage, is "THE NATIONAL LOAN FUND ASSURANCE." The principle of its operation cannot be said to begin where that of all other institutions of a similar nature ends, because it embraces all that the others do, and affords the same facilities ; but its character of national utility results entirely from the multitude of new facilities it creates down wards, admitting to its benefits those against whom all others were closed. We do not profess to be able to give, in one view, all tho details of the system, but we will endeaveur to explain those leading features which appear to us'to recom mend it to the nation. A person insuring his life may insure it for one year, for five years, or for life; and he may pay the premium in one sum, yearly, qua; tcrly, or monthly—for example : A person thirty years old, by paying 1/. 4s. 2d., will effect an insurance for one year, and should he die within that year, his representatives will be entitled to 100/. ; or he may insure it for any greater number of years—the rate in creasing in proportion ; thus, if it be for life, the premium will be 21. 4s. 4d. annually. But supposing this person engaged in business—so that the aforesaid sum will be a loss to him, and the abstraction of it from his capital would ruin his business—he can borrow two thirds of it immediately on the security of his policy, by paying the society an interest to be specified—say five per cent., and thus (supposing the premium 3/.) he will really have to pay only 11., and five per cent. interest on the other two. The next year he can borrow four pounds, and so on —thus creating for himself a cash credit account—the greatest advantage that the most eminent merchant can ob tain by a connexion with a bank. This is the first great re commendation of the system. We still keep the same person in view—viz., a per son thirty years old, insuring for one hundred pounds— and supposinc , that he pays for five years, and afterwards, through neglect, does not pay, by such neglect he would forfeit his entire policy, though he may have paid thousands, to any other Insurance Company ; from this his representa tives will receive two-thirds of all his payments, provided be has paid for five years. This is a second great recommendation, for it entirely secures the assured against the risk of any considerable loss. Again, he may at any time give up his policy—change it into a new assurance, or dispose of it for its real value to the Society, or to convert it into a cash credit account, or into a lodgment with accumulating compound interest. And this we think a third great recommendation. Hero it may be proper to add that the Company will also act in the capacity of a " savings bank"—they will receive money, at three per cent. interest, to be paid at ten days' notice: The same person still, and for the same amount of policy, may adopt the alternative of paying 21. 9s. 3d. insteltd of 21. 4s. 4d., and he would then be entitled to two-thirds of the profits of the Society, which, we will explain thus : Suppose he borrow, as in the former case, 21. out of 31., and pay five per cent. for the 21. ; then, if the profits of the So ciety be seven per cent., be will be entitled to receive as large a sum of interest as he pays—thus reducing the pre mium to one pound instead three. There are several other modes of effecting the insurance, which we have not space to go into to-day, but the great benefits to the poor are comprised in what we have already stated. We do not deem it necessary to add any recom mendation to the simple facts we have detailed. We scarcely think any one could be so improvident as not to avail himself of the undoubted means of securing for his fa mily the competence they brought within his reach. Nine pence a week will secure to a poor tradesman's family the sum of 1001. at his death, and the society furnishes facilities to make that ninepence available, and whenever he is too poor to continue it, he will be entitled to the value of his payments, combined with the chances of his policy. How easy would the einepence go—how foolishly may they be spent—how many miseries and crimes may not the spending of them create—what an impulse to industry, to sobriety, to morality, will not the sparing of them necessarily bring into action—and what a blessing, what a happiness to the mind to be confident that the children of one's love will not be left totally dependent on the death of their natural protector. We have confined ourselves to one sum of 1001. to avoid confusion ; but any sum smaller or larger may be, secured by proportionate payments of premium. We have omitted to mention, what in other instances would be the first essential, the security of stability the so ciety offers—because the names of the parties afford a se curity in themselves, and because principally T. Lamle Murray, Esq., who was mainly instrumental in establishing the National Bank, is at the head of them. We confess, too, that we seize with avidity a plan so much at variance with the system we have described in the beginning of this article ; and we hail as a blessing this opportunity of res cuing the people from wretchedness, and the national cha racter from obloquy. Sir Robert Peel and family arrived at Antwerp on Tuesday last, with the steam-boat from Loudon, and put up at the Hotel du Grand Labouraur, LONDON, FRIDAY, OCTOBER, 13, 1437. AMERICAN PAPERS. REVIEW OF THE NEW YORK MARKET. (From the New York Daily Erpress, Sept. 28. ) REMARKS.—We have very recent dates from Europe, viz., down to the 22d of August. The political news is unimportant. In England the elections were completed, by which the present Ministers were in the majority. The money market was not only easy but abundant. The most agreeable part of the intelligence is the improvement of American produce : this, together with the large imports of specie from America, was fast reducing the debt of the United States ; indeed, the fact is illustrated by the fall of specie and bills on this side of the water. We are now in a season of the year which, in ordinary times, is the busi ness period. Trade has revived a good deal, as there are many merchants here from the South and West, but, com pared with an ordinary year, it is light. There is also some improvement among the shipping, and freights are decidedly better, particularly to England. The money-market is more free than it has been, and, on the whole, things look better than they have ,done at any time within the last six months. FALL TRADE.—The improvement in business noticed in our paper last week, has continued. The boats have reached us full of passengers, and our hotels are now com fortably filled up. Numerous merchants from the south and west are laying in their goods ; and, although they pur chase very sparingly, yet in the aggregate there is a good deal of business done. yy MosEy.—There appears to be a steady improvement in the market. The banks having their line of discount at a poidt seldom before reached, are in a very sound and com fortable condition. The passage of the Bill in the Senate authorising the issue of 12,000,000 Treasury notes, and the postponement of the merchants' bonds, have tended na turally to relieve the market. The arrival also of a large number of merchants from the South and West to make cash purchases has contributed to the restoration of a bet ter state of things. _ _ _ UNCUARENT MONEY.—The description of trash that circulates in our city is truly extraordinary. Bank bills from Mississippi, Michigan, and everywhere else, as well as shin plasters from every description of individuals, are in circu lation. The notes of our city and state banks have nearly disappeared. All our own banks have called in to such a degree that there is not enough in circulation to supply the wants of the city. SPEClE.—Notwithstanding the fact that but little specie is going out of the country, yet the rates are steadily fall ing. The fact is, that for the last month the imports have exceeded the exports. This, together with the fact that the general circulation of the country has been greatly cur tailed, has tended to lower the rates. Half-dollars, which are the great article of sale, have fallen to 5 per cent., and few buyers even at these low rates. There has been a great difference in the rate of specie between the time of the last war and the present ; then specie and New England bank notes sold from 20 to 23 per cent. premium over New York bills, and 30 per cent. above Treasury notes, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington bank-notes. The rates at pre sent are as follow : Asked. Offered. American Gold Sovereigns Spanish Dollars Five Franc Pieces Half Dollars Treasury Draughts.— 1 02 1 01+ Exchange (foreign) by the last packet stood at 118 to 120 per cent. on London. Since then there has been a serious decline ; but, as rates are not fully established, it is difficult to speak with precision. They are offered at 117, and it is believed they will go yet lower. A very large amount of British Government bills has been received from Canada within a few days, supposed to be 200,000/. ster ling. This sum throWn into the market all at once has had a decided influence in depressing rates. DOMESTIC EXCHANGES.—There is no alteration in the rate of exchanges since our last. Southern funds range from 10 to 20 per cent. discount ; but even at that it is impossible to get the banks to collect. How changed arc the times ! Only two years ago, when the United States Bank existed, these very draughts could be collected at only I to 1 per cent. discount. The bill to issue 12,000,000 of Treasury notes has passed the Senate ; what its fate in the House will be no on 3 can tell. There can be no question, that if the bill becomes a law, they will help the internal exchanges some. Should they, however, bear an interest of . per cent. they would be instantly hoarded, and would not appear in the market at all. STOCKS.—There has been a steady improvement during the whole of the week. Indeed, stocks have gone up higher than we known them before in a similar period of time. There is undoubtedly a large amount of idle capital here, and, as an evidence of it, money can can be had on stocks with great facility, and at a moderate rate of in terest. The following have been the operations of the week : Saturday, p.m.—The operations at the board still con tinue to increase. United States Bank closed at 118 ; Delaware closed at 76, 1 per cent. higher than it opened at. Nearly every description on the list stood better than yesterday. Treasury drafts have fallen within a few days to 4i per cent., a decline of 3 per cent. Monday, p.m.—The transactions to-day are compara tively limited to those of Satarday ; still prices, generally, have been well sustained. United States Bank and Dela ware are the leading stocks, and sold a shade higher. Several of the leading stocks stand unusually steady. Tuesday, p.m.—United States Bank and Delaware and Hudson have advanced again to-day. Nearly all the stocks on the list stand better. The transactions at the board were much more extensive than any day yet. Specie is on the decline. Treasury notes have also gone down. Wednesday, p.m.—The report exhibits an amount of business that reminds us of " the golden days of our com mercial prosperity." There is again quite a spirit of specu lation, and almost all descriptions on the list have gone up. Delaware and Hudson particularly have been most active. Treasury draughts and specie have fallen. Thursday, p.m.—We have another day of improvement in Stocks. Delaware rose to 78, and afterwards to 79 ; United States Bank, 1181 ; Long Island advanced to 59 ; Treasury draughts wnt down to 2 per cent. The cause of this sudden fall is, no eo ibt, owing to the fact that the bill for the issue of Treasury notes will become a law. Specie has also fallen. There are sales of halfldollars at 6 per cant. Tl.e sales at the board were I,ooods. American gold, 6 per cent. 1 rem. ; 3,000 dollars in half-dollars, Gi ditto ; 650 sovereigns at 524 ; 500 ditto, 5231. We note half-dollars 6 to Gi premium ; Spanish dollars at 71 to 8 ditto ; Mexican ditto, 7 to 7* ditto ; five franc pieces, I,ooi ; doubloons, 16 85 to 17 10 ; ditto patriot, 16 55 to 16 70. . _ _ Friday, p.m.—To-day was another day of large opera tions ; and although there has been no improvement, the advance of yesterday is well sustained. Treasury draughts arc down to 101 i. SEPT. 23.—This has been a more cheering day than we have witnessed since the suspension of specie payments. To-morrow being the regular sailing day of the packets, there have been extensive operations in exchange. The large amounts of British Government bills thrown into market reduced the rates very materially. Private bills on London sold at 15, and Government at 16 to 16-i premium. Sovereigns down to 5 dollars 10c. ' and silver 3i to 6 ; these rates are below any quotations for three months past. The packets will take but a small amount of specie. The officer of the Commissariat of Lower Canada, who is, or has been, in this city, exchanging British Govern ment bills for specie, expects to pay up the arrearages of the expenses of the provincial Government by the end of the present month. The putting into circulation in Canada 600,000 or 700,000 dollars in specie, it is supposed there, will enable some of the banks to resume specie payments, because the arrears are monthly due to the banks for ad vances made to public officers and the departments. As long, however, as the banks of our city are under the neces sity of refusing specie for their bills, any premature move ment towards resumption in Canada will end as Sir Francis Head's movements have ended in the Upper Province.

The transactions in Treasury draughts were extensive, draughts to the amount of 7,100 dollars having been taken at 1 and 10,000 at 11 per cent. p.m., showing a further decline of per cent. No variation of any moment occurred in stocks ; the market was perhaps rather heavier than on the preceding day, but prices generally were maintained. United States Bank, 118 to 1181. The banks of this city have agreed on 4 per cent. as a fair rate of interest on mutual balances. The Commercial Bank of the Midland district of Upper Canada has suspended specie payments. The Montreal Courier states, that the immediate occasion of this measure is said to have been in consequence of heavy demands from the United States. ExcHaNGEs.—The decline in the price of specie, with the consequent fall of the rates of exchange, is almost un precedented, being in the short space of eight days, or from one packet day to the other, from 31 to 4 per cent. This may be attributed to a much larger amount being offered than was required by the demand, as well as to an anxiety to sell. _ _ The transactions in bills of exchange for the packets of the 24th were chiefly at 1.5 f to 16i per cent. on England ; 4f. 95c. on France ; 42c. on Holland ; 371 c. to 38c. on Hamburg, and 85c. on Bremen. The sales of specie closed on Saturday ; sovereigns 5 12i to 5 13 dollars ; Mexican dollars per cent. premium ; five franc pieces 1 00i dol lars ; Napoleons 4 02 to 4 04 dollars ; American gold and half-dollars 5 to 51 per cent. premium ; doubloons were held above the price offered. Treasury draughts 1f per cent. premium. The amount of specie shipped by yesterday's packets will probably not exceed 100,000 dollars. The Gladiator, for London, sailed on Friday, is sup posed to have taken out about 150,000 dollars. BOMBAY PAPERS. By the Lintin, arrived at Liverpool, papers have been received from Bothbay to the 4th of July, and letters to the 6th. From inquiries by the Bombay Chamber of Com merce into the amount of damage sustained by the shipping during the late gale, it resulted that three lacs (about 80,00010 was the extent falling on the merchants and underwriters there, and 43,0001. on account of the under writers here. This was independent of the loss to the East India Company in the Aurora, the Hastings, and the two steamers, estimated at another lac, and the loss in cargo, shore-boats, and goods on board, at about 50,000 rupees. It is stated that the unfavourable accounts of the money market in this country, received in Bombay by the over -land April mail, had rendered the merchants cautious about withdrawing any portion of their capital from England. These circumstances had brought about an " unprece dented" fall in the rate of exchange, which was not reckoned at less than 20 per cent. Within a few days previously to the departure of the Lintin, bills at six months' sight had been sold at Is. 9d. the rupee. There was no want of money, which it is said was never more abundant. The Atalanta steamer was out of dock, and in readi ness, but her destination was stated to be dependent on orders daily expected from Calcutta, which it was hoped would be fur the Red Sea. The Hugh Lindsay steamer, in addition to necessary repairs, was to be lengthened, which it was thought might be of advantage with respect to speed ; but this would take her out of em ploy for three months, and the boilers of the Berenice were also out of order, so that she would be unfit for ser vice for some time to come. Accounts had been re ceived from Mocha of the 4th of June, that the Palinurus was lying there, waiting for the May mail. Complaints were made of the neglect and detention of the overland mails by the Red Sea. The Mecca, which arrived at Bombay on the 18th of June, did not leave Mocha for the space of 20 days after the arrival out of the overland des patch, and about the time of her departure, or shortly after, another overland mail "had reached Mocha. One of these mails, it is stated, had been 30 days on its passage from Suez to Juddab, being detained there 5 days, and 15 more elapsed before its arrival at Mocha. These deten tions were not ascribable to unfavourable winds, but to the indifference of the masters of the native vessels em ployed in carryiug the mails. By this conveyance advice& have been received from Calcutta to the 20th of June. The heat is represented to be extreme and unprecedented, the thermometer in the shade ranging generally at 98 and 100 deg., and it was found necessary to open the offices for business at dawn, and close at I I in the morning. The cholera was raging among the native population, and many Europeans had also fallen victims to it. FRENCH and ENGLISH ELECTORAL SYSTEMS. (From the Connie,. Francais.) " Great Britain, once so servilely imitated by the Doc trinaires, has for this some time past fallen into complete disgrace with the clever gentlemen of that coterie. The example of England recurs no more to their mouths, ex cept as the drunken slave whom the Spartans pointed out to their children to make them blush. They display with infinite complacency all the defects of the English Consti tution—defects which have been so carefully avoided in the French Charter. i Liberty, say they, cannot consist n the number of elec tors. Nothing can be more free than French elections, where the venality of the English does not exist. " To this it may be observed, that increasing the num• ber of electors has never been announced as sufficient to guarantee the freedom and the morality of the suffrage. It forms not all, but merely one, of the conditions of a fair representation. The Government ought to be in accor dance with the wishes of the majority, which can never be the case if the electoral body be but a mere oligarchy. No doubt the instincts of the multitude, coarse though sure, ought not to be allowed to prevail over that force of intel ligence which ought to form the Government. But it is indispensable that the mere force of Government should not turn the country as it lists, and oppress it, as administrative chiefs, or as wielding the military force. " In England a million of electors participate in the exercise of sovereignty. Is it the number that renders the English elections corrupted ? Were they more or less so before Lord Grey's reform ? Is not the contrary the ad mitted truth ? We would wish for France, however, that the representative machine was as pure in France as it is in England. But truth forces us to admit that in sifting and diminishing the number of electors we have obtained neither more independence nor more dignity in them. If of the 200,000 political magistrates called electors all were subtracted who failed in their duty, we fear the moral balance would not be on our side, or unfavourable to the English. It is the misfortune of the time. Our habits are no more innocent than our law. Corruption with us holds open market, the same as in England, except that the pur chasers and the form of the vile contract are different. And what takes place there in the streets and taverns is done with us more decently in saloons. In Great Britain corruption assumes a rude form, but for that reason less dangerous. A vote is bought with a sum, or with an ad libitum portion of beer. This is the infancy as well as the dotage of the art of corruption, invented by the, aristocracy before Wal pole or Villele came to render the said art perfect. In France the Government, the sole buyer possible of venal consciences, is more adroit in its election manoeuvres. It does not offer money. The secret funds would not suffice. The same result is reached, however. The Minister has the power of making every elector a functionary ; for the Finance Minister alone has 200,000 places in his gift. But the Government is not reduced to the bribing of each elec tor individually. Instead of bribing them in detail, as English candidates must, the Minister buys up at once a district or a town by the grant of a road, a canal, a railroad, a college, and sometimes even by a cavalry garrison to raise the price of hay. It is thus the majority of the Chamber is changed ; it is thus that there never has been a Ministry which might not procure a majority for itself. We are really at a loss to choose between the two modes of cor ruption. In England, however, the shame and the crime are confined to individuals, whilst in France it is the Go vernment which is guilty." - --- COMMERCE OF FRANCE, 1836. The Administration of Customs has published a volume on the external commerce of France, from which we have extracted several interesting facts. The imports and exports from 1831 to 1836 inclusive were as follow : IMPORTS. Years. ......... ~ General Commerce. Special Commerce. 1831 736,254,620 f. 1832 652,872,241 1833 693,275,752 1834 720,194,336 1835 760,726,696 1836 905,575,359 EXPORTS. Years. General Commerce.

The duties paid on the above imports were -1831.... 91,823,481f. 1834 101,398,9671. 1832 100,897,988 1835 102,512,926 1833 101,636,816 1836 105,395,522 From the imports for 1831 there ought to be deducted 223,000,050 of bullion ; when the remainder, compared v.ith the imports for 1836, will show on increase in favour of the latter year of more than 400,000,000. 1 The general trade of France with foreign countries has increased in a much quicker ratio than the special trade, which exports the produce of the country, and imports ob jects only for home consumption. Thus, in 183'2, the ge neral imports amounted to 652,000,000 f., and in 1836 to 90.5,000,000 f. ; the general exports for the rime years to 696,000,0001., and 961,000,000 f. respectively. The spe cial imports in 1832 were 505,000,000 1 . ; in 1836, 564,000,0001. ; and the special exports, 507,000,000 1 ., and 628,000,0001. respectively. The amount of special im ports for 1836 may be thus divided—Raw materials for manufactures, 395,786,7941 ; objects for consumption, 116,289,6491.; manufactured objects, 52,2' 3 2,110f. This small relative amount of foreign manufactures is to be attri buted solely to the obstacles offered by the Legislature to a system of free trade, and, in some part, to those arising from foreign nations, where similar restrictions also exist. The amount of special exports for 1836 was—Raw ma terials, 172,274,000 f. ; objects of consumption, 40,917,000 f. ; manufactured objects, 4 - 15,766,0001. The trade of France, in imports to be re-exported, or' the transit trade, has considerably increased within a few years ; its value in 1832 being 90,544,67:2f. ; and in 1836 presenting a total of 204,278,7961., giving an augmentation of 120 per cent. There is no doubt that, had the customs' regulations of the country allowed of it, the trade of France in objects for her own consumption would have increased in a similar proportion. In the following table will be found the imports and ex ports of France for 1835 and 1836, classed according to the countries to which they relate. IMPORTS. 1835. 1836. United States Belgium 60,381,000 Sardinia 66,943,000 . , England 31, 663000 Spain 25,509,000 Germany Switzerland Two Sicilies Prussia Russia Col- ,olonies 59 000,000 ...... 57,000,000 EXPORTS. 1835. 1836. United States Belgium 34,906,000 Sardinia . . . England 59,688,000 Spain 39,935,000 Germany Switzerland Two Sidlies Prussia Russia Colonies 50.000,000 The commerce with the United States, which is the most considerable outlet for French productions, has increased 173 per cent. within the last five years. Trade with most European nations has also been augmented within the same period ; that with Spain, however, having suffered much damage from the political condition of the country ; and that with Turkey not having received any notable increase. It had been expected that the system of customs lately adopted in Germany would cause a diminution in the ex ports of France to that part of Europe: On the contrary, an increase has taken place, but not so great an amount as would have been the case if the regulations of that system had not conic into force. The movement of shipping in the ports of France for 1835 and 1836 was as follows : ENTERED. No. of Vessels. Tonnage. Values. 835 10,361 1,174,032 479,759,320f. .836 ...... .... 11,791 1,374,331 577,930,986f. CLEARED. No. of Vessels. Tonnage. Values. 1835 1836 The total number of merchant-vessels belonging to France in 1836 was 15,249, measuring 685,011 tons, giving an average of 44 tons to each vessel. Out of this number there were only 17 vessels of 500 tons and up wards ; about 2,000 of from 100 to 500 tons ; 10,000 from 30 to 100 tons ; and the rest below 30 tons. Havre possessed in 1836 only 371 vessels, with a total of 71,899 tons ; Bordeaux, 385 vessels, of 70,627 tons ; and Mar seilles, 795 vessels, of 69,910 tons. The proportion of the number of French vessels entering French ports to that of foreign vessels, in 1836, was about four to seven ; whence the importance of her own coasting trade to France may be easily deduced. MEXICAN DEBT. The arrangements for the conversion of the Mexican debt are now in progress, but appear to be beset with many diffi culties, and in the main to be far from satisfactory to the bondholders at large. One of the objections very currently made has been, that the agents of the Mexican Govern ment propose to disregard altogether the agreement of 1831, for funding at 75 per cent. for the Six per Cents, and 62i for the Five per Cents, the ten dividend warrants failing due between the Ist of July, 1831, and the Ist of April, 1836, in bonds bearing interest at 6 per cent. from the latter date, and for paying in money the half-coupon. In lieu of such agreement, they offer merely to fund those 10q coupons at par. The difference it makes will best appear in figures. The following is on the basis of the present conversion, and of the rejection of the agreement of 1831 : , s. d. 1,000/. 6 per Cent. Bond, at 1121- per cent 1,123 0 0 23i Coupons, at 305. for each bond 1,477 10 0 In New 5 per Cent.

Bond, which now exchanged at 1121, the same as the Deferred Bonds, would be The Half-Coupons agreed to be paid in money 13 Coupons over-due, and unpaid; at 30s. each 225 0 0 7 10 0 per cent .ntercst on the 200/.

The following is a copy of what is called the receipt for the 103- coupons falling due between July 1, 1831, and April 1, 1836 : " Letter ( ). Bond (number). " I, the undersigned Minister Plenipotentiary. of the United States of Mexico, acknowledge to have received on behalf of my Government the following dividend war rants :-- (Here fellows the list of the 10i.) and hereby promise, in the name of the Mexican Govern ment, that on the delivery of this receipt (countersigned by Messrs. Baring, Brothers, and Co.) at the office of its agents on the Ist of April, 1836, the sum of • 15s. shall be paid to the bearer, being half the quarterly interest falling due that day, and that the remaining 151. shall be funded at the rate of 75 per cent. fur bonds bearing 6 per cent. interest, provided that the original bond shall not have been redeemed, &c. " GOROSTIZA." " We hereby certify that this receipt is delivered in con. sideration of the above-mentioned dividend warrants hay. ing been cancelled as per list No. —. " BARING, BROTHERS, and CO." SPAIN. BAYONNE, OCT. 7.—There is nothing more interesting to communicate from this for the moment than the failure of a small expedition undertaken on the 3d inst. by some of the troops of the garrison of St. Sebastian and two com panies of the Legion, under the command of a Spanish officer named Quasnavar. This force, amounting to about 2,000 men, was embarked after nightfall, on the 3d, on board two British steamers, for the purpose of being landed some leagues up the coast to the westward, in two divisions, and at two different ports, when they were by a forced and night march to make their way several leagues inland, in order to surprise the little town of Marquina, where there was a depot of nearly 9,000 Christino prisoners, and from which General Flinter, a British subject in the Spanish ser vice, had but a few days before escaped to Bilboa. One of those divisions had made good its way to the point pre viously fixed upon, and at the appointed hour ; but the other and larger division, either owing to some accident, misunderstanding, or the usual and national inaccuracy . and dilatoriness, did not arrive at its p oint of destination till two hours after its time , and jus t as da y w as beginning to dawn. The alarm was of course, instantly given by the pea santry, and the bells of the neighbouring village churches set ringing, sn as to warn the authorities and force of Marquina in sufficient time to enable them to hurry off, along with their prisoners, into the interior. Tiae object of the expedi tion thus missed, the Commander, Quasnavar, saw nothing better to do than to march his men back to the coast, where, by way of compensating themselves for their disap pointed, they pillaged the three small fishing towns or vil lages of Ondorrao, Deva, and Motrico, besides committing, it is said, great excesses In a convent of nuns near the last mentiuncd place. Besides the plunder made on this occa sion, and which is stated not to be inconsiderable, they brought away about forty fishing-boats and launches ( f various sizes. The expedition, on its return, was landed at St. Sebastian, about 3p. in. on the 4th lust. The next day the glacis of St. Sebastian presented the appearance of a fair, where ti,e !eldiers exposed for inspection and sale, the heterogeneous articles of their plunder. It is much to be feared that the Carlists, exasperated by the piliage of these towns, will seek to revenge themselves on their unfortunate prisoners, and if they do not massacre them all, it is sup posed that they will either decimate them, or diminish their numbers by increased ill-usage. Lieutenant-Colonel Freestone, Aide-de-camp to General O'Connell, left this yesterday evening, with about 14,000 dollars, in hard money, for the use of the Legion, which is now reduced to a single regiment of infantry, of about 850 effective men, exclusive of 220 artillerymen, and 250 cavalry. Letters have been received by General O'Con nell from the house of O'Shea, in Madrid, holding out the strongest assurances that in a very short time sufficient funds will be produced, not only to pay up the officers and men of the new Legion, but also to satisfy all the arrears, with the exception of the gratuities, of the old Legion. SARAGOSSA, OCT. 4.—General Oraa entered Saragossa at about four yesterday afternoon. .1 - le was escorted by a squadron of the 6th light cavalry and a battalion of the 13th regiment of infantry ; and was accompanied by General Froilan Mendez Vigo, chief of his staff, and the rest of the staff officers. The principal object of this visit is, to represent to the provincial deputation the extreme penury of the military chest of the army of the centre, as well as the want of depots of provisions and clothing in Darcca, Teruel, and other points in the province, for which demands had been long ago made. At this very moment the authorities are in conference with the Captain General ; and from the sources of information open to me, I have reason to believe that the result will be satisfactory. It appears that the Navarrese who were with Cabrera, after quarrelling with the Arragonese, went off, in number about 1,000, towards Navarre with the Carlist Chief Sanz, Cabrera with the remainder having, as mentioned in a former letter, fled to Cantavieja in consequence of the pur suit of Oraa, of whom these rebels are in utter dread. A letter from Teruel, dated 27th, says—" This canalla, at the very name of Oraa, threw away their muskets, haversacks, &c., and ran off in all directions. It would require a large volume to register the property they have abandoned during the last three days. Baggage of great value, mule-loads of cloth, baize, calico, linen, &c. Among these effects was a bishop's hat, with the cross and girdle worn by prelates. The number of horses, mules, &c., exceeds 500." BRUSSELS AND GERMAN PAPERS. CRecow, 29TH SerT.—The resolutions of the Senate, of which we have already spoken, relates to the changes which the three high protecting powers have ordered to be made in the organic statute on political assemblies, and in the organic statute relative to the internal regulations of the Senate, and which changes were communicated to the Senate by the Resident Ministers of the three powers on the 9th of August. -These alterations and additions re late to the conducting and printing the journals of the po litical assemblies, to the cho►ce of the Senators, the voting of the Budget, the disbursement of the public money by the Senate, the prorogation of the Diet when disorders arise in the Chamber of. Representatives, the empowering the President of the Senate to suspend decrees of the Senate which have been passed by a majority of voters, the con duct of the protocols of the Senate, the appointment of the Director of the Police, the dismissal of police officers, and the administration of the police in general, the chief of which is the President of the Senate ; likewise to the com munications which the Senate has to make to the three Resident Ministers, and the influence which they are to exercise on them. HANOVER, OCT. 4.—The Minister Von Ompteda is still here, but it is said he will shortly return to England with the rank of a State and Cabinet Minister, even if some of the present Ministers should be induced to retire from the service. • STOCKIIOLM, OCT. 3.—Accounts from our Island of St. Bartholomew in the West Indies, state that the hurricane of the 2d August did very great damage in that island also. A letter says that in 23 minutes above 200 buildings, in cluding the Government House, were reduced to a heap of ruins, and nbove.loo others very much injured. The Governor and his children escaped from the falling house ; 14 persons were killed, and many severely hurt. HAMBURG, OCT. 10.—His Majesty the King of Swe den arrived at Gottenburg on the 2d inst., between eight and nine in the evening, and was received with salutes of artillery, addresses, illuminations, &c., to all which the rain was rather unfavon:able. The streets were crowded with people, and the greateJ order prevailed. BERLIN, OCT, 8.---CIIOLERA BULLETIN. Oct. 6-7. Oct. 7-8. New Cases Deaths ... lO As Cie number of cases has so grea!•ly decreased, all the cholera hospitals except two are closed. At Posen there were, from Sept. 24 to Oct. 4, 82 new cases of cholera, and 41 deaths. NAPLES, SEPT. 26.—1 n the night of the 23d, and in the forenoon of the 24th, a dreadful thunder-storm broke over our city, with a tempestuous wind, and torrents of rain for twe lve hours ; so that several parts of the city were wholly under water, and entire tracts . of land desolated, both the trees and the earth being washed away. The lightning and the claps of thunder were not frequent, but extremely vio lent, and many places in the city struck, but not much damaged. A great change in the temperature has followed, and coinciding with the equinox, we shall probably have a continuance of the coolness usual in the autumn. Recent letters from Messina say that the cholera is abat ing in Catanea, but the deaths were still 80 to 100 daily. Of the 30,000 inhabitants who remained in the city, 10,000 (as others say, 6,000 or 7,000) have perished. The people, as at Palermo, committed dreadful excesses at the begin ning. Some persons were buried alive, others nailed up against the church-doors ; some buried in the earth up to the neck, and then pelted with stones. In this manner the magistrates and also the intendants of Catanea were treated. It is said here that attempts have been made on the lives of several superior officers commanding the troops sent thither. Many of the soldiers were said to have fallen. Letters from Malta say that between 4,000 and 5,000 persons had died of the cholera—a large number for so small an island. ROME, SEPT. 28.—The new regulations published by the Board of Health show that it still firmly believes the cholera to be contagions—a notion which is now confined to the medical men, the public in general being persuaded of the contrary by the laudable conduct of the clergy, who fearlessly visited all the sick when the disorder was at its height. A further proof is the conduct of the German physicians, who are strangers to fear, and whose conduct has had a powerful moral influence on all around them. The German artists here were agreeably surprised by the arrival of two German physicians sent by his Majesty the King of Bavaria, expressly to attend them, gratis, during the cholera. It is difficult to express in words the gratitude of them all to the high minded Monarch who considers the artists in distant countries as being under his protec tion: The Austrian and Russian Governments have like wise sent physicians, so that we have now eight German physicians who willingly give their aid to others besides their own countrymen, and have met with a very grateful return.
