briat had slewed round at the mouth of the river, and "made sail on the starboard tack, grounded on a bank, -after running no more than thirty yards, and was left high and dry by the receding tide. All efforts to get her off proving fruitless un til th e re t urn o f the tide, the crew were ordered to breakfast. In about two hours a party of upwards of twenty soldiers made their appear ance, bearing a flag of truce; they hailed Mr. Wardlaw to know ,why the boat was there? He replied she had grounded. He was then asked to go on shore. He did so; and when be returned to the boat he told them the man with whoi.n he had been conversing " was more a friend than eaa enemy." That man went away, but the soldiers remained about the spot; ;An twenty minutes afterwards he returned, and Mr. Wa - rdlaw went to meet him, much against the opinion and wishes of every one in the boat. William Hall., the coxswain, begged that he would alkw him to aee,ompany him, but Mr. Wardlaw replied Coat he was P;11 right—that the people were quite criendly, and would not hurt him. When the commas Gant—for such was the officer who dismounted—snatithed the flag of truce from him, poor Wardlaw was at once surrounded by bayonets; he sat down on the beach for a few mo ments, then, suddenly springing am, ran towards the water, and cried out those last void; on which Mr. Dewar so efficiently acted. He was of course pursued and car ried off; the enemy has give; a no account of this officer's fate, but the current report, is that he was stabbed slowly to death. Mr. Wardlaw had .littc,sed most orhis still early career upon this station, read more than shared the usual predi lection of our offi•Jers for the country and its inhabitants, amongst whom. he mixed freely, and was much esteemed ; He had once ', 3e fore been made priscner, but then it Nr, t s in the °ricrac' State; and from his intercourse of F. , olne months with the natives, he conceived so high an opinion of the South American gancho, that no Fitr-anger could more fully confide in the honcur of anothe.c than he did in him. But he has been deceived by eYternals; the, flowing poncho which envelopes the pers on of this cAaurteous and hospitable peasant has a fatal identity with that worn by the brutalised soldier and tre,:med masher quero of Rosas; the language and looks of the beings are the same; " He who searcheth hearts td:one could discri minate between them." COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. " CORRIENTES, MAY 15 --On my first arrival here, the prospects were not of I:he most flattering kind, but little by little they have improved, owing partly to the arrangements which we English made amongst our selves, and partly in consequence of the parties who brought up small facturas having retailed them then selves or otherwise disposed of them, thus leaving the market open to those who had any quantity of goods, and who were not over urgent to effect se.les ; but the greatest mischief was, in the first instance, done by those of the convoy who arrived first; they knowing that more goods were coming up, an' fea:rful of being undersold, disposed of their goods at the hest prices they could obtain. This for a time kert prices low. Those who arrived afterwards soon found out the state of the case, and the greater part then took shops, which kept the goods out of the har.ds of the dealers. I was all along under the impressis, n that the dealers must even tually pay us good pric'Js for our goods, or else do with out them; but as it was necessary to be doing something, without pushing sales, I sold whenever I could obtain a price to leave a Fibir profit. You will be aware of the prices from *,:ae notes of sales I have sent down, and which I trr,st will be satisfactory. The dealers here are for the most part young men, who came up frord Buenos Ayres with facturas, by the former convoys from th a t p l ace. They este blisb'ed themselves here, collected hides, &c., an , :i are now sendi ng d own part to pay for the goods t'aey brought up; the remainder they have sold to raise funds for purchasing goods her e , an d h av i ng b ut small capital they can only buy in proportion to their means. Some few of the dealers have been established here for a long time ; these complain of bad times, and it is evi dent they have to make way for younger andmore active men. I trust you will be satisfied with my proceedings in having taken a shop, for I see it is the cheapest way I have of collecting produce at the lowest prices ; being in small lots they can always be bought cheaper than in la - rger quantities, and the extra profit on the goods will ear more than cover the additional expense. The amount or value of the goods purchased by the Paraguayans in this market, from my arrival to the present time, I cal culate at 6,000 dollars, or at most 8,000 dollars ; they would have bought more had. they brought more money, but tho export duty of 10 per cent, on specie out of Pa raguay is a great drawback to money being extracted from that republic. The Correntine Government have not yet arranged the duties on imports, and the Congress is not sitting. I spoke to-day with the collector, who is also treasurer, and he will regulate the duties as soon as he has a little leisure ; he is at present quite occupied with the accounts of the imports and exports. " I wrote down on the 11th, with particulars of some goods which I consider will do well here in the course of two, three, or four months hence ; and it would be well to have them ready, especially if we determine on establishing a house here. Several persons have gone down, with the intention of returning with articles suit able for the market. " Hides have fallen in price to 24 to 26 / reels, and I expect to buy very soon at 20 reels, as there are now scarcely any purchasers. If I could be sure of your sending up a letter of marque, with salt, comestibles, and a general assortr,,ent of goods, such as grey and bleached calicoes, 'prints, baizes, sewing thread, hand kerchiefs, and shawls, &c., I would go down to the Bajada in two .4nonths hence to meet the vessel, and I might there 'oe able to dispose of the cargo, or a part of it. to advaratage ; or, if not, I could come on here w ith it. The goo's for Paraguay will be away in a few days ; one small 'v'essel is already laden, another begun with, and I hard rA third ready in case of need. " 'Captain Hotham has said that he cannot give con voy to single vessels ; now I do not think that it has over been the intention of their Excellencies the Minis ters Plenipotentiary of England and France that a convoy should be given to vessels to come up the river, and then that they should be left here because they can not be ready laden by a given time. They could not suppose that we can get on so quickly here, where every thi'ag is out of order, out of place, where there are so Many impediments, and so many vessels to be go t ready, as could b e done did the commerce flow in its proper and regular channel ; and I feel convinced that when their Excellencies are made acquainted with the particulars, there will not be any detention, for want of convoy, of the vessels now left behind. " Political affairs have taken a very favourable turn, much more so than I anticipated; this is so much more favourable for us in the sale of our goods. On the Ist instant we had notice that General Juan Made- Viaga, with five others, had made his escape from Entre- Rios, and was at that time in communication with the captains of the naval forces who were then off the Es quma. The escape of Don Juan from Entre-Rios must have been with the connivance of Urquiza ; for I heard, sorne five or six days previous to that, that he was ex pected to arrive here in the city on the Ist, which proves that they were aware of his coming. The Go vernor, Don Joaquin Madariaga, had been already at Esquina, to see the commanders. Since that time I have heard from various persons that all is finally set tled between the Madariagas and Urquizas ; but upon what terms or conditions is not exactly known, though there is a report in town that the treaty will be pub lished en the 25th instant. I have just been informed on gocoa authority, that communications have been re ceived today from Captains,' Hotham and Trehouart, coTataining the conditions upon which the peace is to be eistablished, viz.:— " Entre-Rios and Corrientes to act together against Itosas and all parties. " Corrientes and Entre-Rios to be two separate pro vinces or republics ; to be in all respects independent of Buenos Ayres. " Urquiza to take the command of the combined armies. " Paiaguay to have the option of entering into the league, upon condition of not allowing General Paz to have anything to do or say in the matter." (From the Pen ayuayo lndependiente.) The press has, in many places, long since discovered and exposed the gross imposition by which the policy of Rosas is sustained; but truth labours in vain where blindness and vice hold inflexible dominion; "none are so deaf as those who will not hear." History shows that in different communities or govern nents certain fixed views or passions have always directed their tendencies. Rome adopted conquest as her principle of government; Greece conferred crowns on her wise men, and made of philosophy and the sciences an idol; Tyre, Venice, and the United Pro vinces of the Low Countries gave all their application to commerce ; Spain and Portugal were led on by the spirit of discovery; England pursued maritime predomi nance; France glory; in a word, each has its peculiar passion or ambition, its favourite ruling principle. Rosas, right or wrong, is a Government; consequently must have, and has, in fact, the attribute. As the moral course of human affairs is ever consequential—that which, at times appears to our imagination to be dis order not being disorder, but the natural consequence of certain principles and antecedent acts—it is evident that he must manifest some tendency singular and harmoni ous with his system. His flags fluttered forth the imprecation, " Death to the savage Unitarians ;" from that moment his soldiers were armed with knives, and.became expert cut-throats. He called the civilised Argentines savages ; Gauchos from the Pampas then became the representatives of civilization. He styled himself "Hero of the Desert ;" what more consentaneous with the title than the wish to reduce the city of Buenos Ayres and all the Confedera tion to one grand universal waste, by that means to strengthen and enlarge his claim to the coveted glory? A principle of death and destruction was set up, and it has been strictly followed. Inspired with such ideas, and the insatiable thirst of conquest, it was still impossible for him to openly con fess and defend them. He must then have recourse to falsehood—altering the signification of words, calling crime virtue, ambition right, cruelty justice, and madness reason. Falsehood had necessarily to become his prin ciple of government; and it is so. Now, falsehood, extermination, and a desert, are things irreconcileble with civilation ; Rosas must, there fore, be hostile towards all who raise the standard of in telligence. What wonder that he is at war with his neighbours, the Orientales, the Paraguayans, the Boli vians ? Who can feel astonished that he is at war with the English and French? " Hero of the Desert!"—bow could he consent to neutrals navigating the Parana, which he wishes to preserve a desert for ever? But his most scandalous falsehood is that political bliaphemy which he has just committed in his last mes sage to the Legislative Chamber of Buenos Ayres_that Paraguay would unite . herself with the conf e d erat i on And his -,.. /k ialt which says nothing except by his raguay would make common cause IgrAulaincifilltnizane and just dictator ! vaue la waiiittisring these fraudulent words, there vozpolaat o every hill and valley of Paraguay, - -. THE SUN,_ LONDON, II,Y LEA lirough her capital, on her mountains and plains, one universal shout of war against him. He had no ground whatever for advancing the false hood ; and his, only motive in telling it was to mislead and confound, his aim being to inculcate an idea of his superior rower, to impose upon his enemies, to screen the effects of his nefarious policy, to divert the attention of the general coalition, which his crimes and folly have called irato existence, and to ward off the blow which now ttreatens him. But of what use is such a miserable expedient ? It lar,ts but for two or three days, and then follows the solemn and bitter contradiction, the voice of truth, the conviction, whose only fruit is dishonour and infamy. Let Rosas go on so if he pleases ; but let him con vince himself, if possible, in time, that all his plots and falsehoods, nay, his hostilities too, will never prevail against Paraguay. Here he has the well-wishes of no one, absolutely no one ; still he talks about American sympathies ! How does he expect to impress us with an idea of his power, if he thus exposes to us his mi serable weakness ? Let him continue if he pleases; but instead of coming out conqueror, he will see that even the city of Buenos Ayres will at length escape from his fangs. Yes, she shall arise from amid the ruin and ashes of her murdered children, and the sun of inde pendence ant!, liberty, the moon of security and repose, shall yet dawn upon her walls. - - MR.

THERMOMETER, Lowest, 59; Highest. 76 ; Noon, 71 BAROMETER, 30.38.—W1ND N.N.W., cloudy. rible appearance of the cholera in Kurrachee. Fifteen hundred European soldiers are reckoned in the mortality. This epidemic had how- ever abated in the district last mentioned, and by proceeding up the river threatened a similar desolation to Hyderabad. The violent fever which had attacked the garrison at Sukkur was in like manner disappearing. By the natives Kurrachee is usually regarded as a sanatorium : by the Europeans it has, during severe seasons, been found little more salubrious than Vera Cruz, or even Sierra Leone. Thousands are suddenly cut off by an agonising and malignant disease; the streets are crowded with the lugubrious pomp of funerals ; and even those individuals who are spared in the visitation are mourners for its numerous victims. These calami ties, which have been for a considerable time of periodical occurrence, are unquestionably of sufficient importance to render us desirous for some corrective, if not for some preventative, measures. When we behold our regiments thinned triennially by cholera, or miasma, or dysentery, or other maladies, our first question is, and very naturally, How can this be pre • vented? Will draining the soil in the vicinity of barracks be productive of any decided ad vantage ? Will levelling the neighbouring jungles, or burning the underwood, decrease the chance of unwholsome vapours being generated ? Would any system of dietetics during the dangerous periods render our military less liable to the afflic tion ? Surely any trouble of research into the means of avoiding such wholesale dangers would be amply repaid to Government, whenever those means were discovered ; and any reasonable expense in endeavour ing to defend our troops from decimation would in the end prove absolutely economical. Something should be done to save our armies from a similar destruction in future. We advance millions to defray the cost of conquering some hostile nation for encroaching upon our frontiers, or for placing the lives of our people in jeopardy by marauding excursion; but we are either niggardly or literally apathetic in at tempting to vanquish an enemy by which our defenders are destroyed en masse ! Sir C. NAPIER has recently been demolishing the fortifications of Kurrachee, and filling up the sur rounding ditches with a view to the diminution of the mortality. It would, therefore, appear that some changes are requisite in the drainage, and that the soldiers are in too confined an atmosphere. Why not, in the name of Heaven, rectify these errors before you are driven to do so by the sudden death of fifteen hundred able-bodied men ? In one instance a whole regiment perishes under the ruins of a ricketty bar rack—and it is then sagaciously discovered that such buildings should be erected with a greater regard to strength and durability. In another, the wives and children of our soldiers are afflicted by a contagion, from want of proper shelter and wholesome provisions —and the gentlemen of the commissariat department are instantly satisfied that a reasonable number of beds and generous food should be supplied for similar convoys. And now several hundred men are swept away—and forthwith it would seem that the stagnant waters around Kurra chee should have been removed, and a better ventilation supplied to the garrison. It is hinted by other individuals that an alteration in the period of the arrival of European troops in such places as Kurrachee or Hyderabad would materially diminish the possibility of cholera being felt in this ter rific manner. We cannot undertake, of course, to decide upon which of the many nostrums advanced should be selected, but we do most distinctly and empha. tically aver that the merits of each should be can vassed by the local authorities ; that an active interference is incumbent upon the supreme Government ; and that in conscience and honour and honesty some immediate steps should be taken for the better protection of the lives of our gallant veterans. The existence of a soldier is already sufficiently precarious to render it a matter of indif ference whether he be carried off " in the full blossom of his sins" by the abrupt encroachments of an avoid. able epidemic. The battle-field needs no assistance in its work of death from the fever hospital. Ga lantry in our regiments had better be rewarded by preserving their health in time of peace than by decorating them with flaunting ribbons. The war against rents is rapidly extending itself throughout Ireland. Already has it spread from Tipperary, where it had its origin, into Limerick and the King's County. It is the first fruit of the in flammatory and exciting harangues on the subject of physical force that have recently been pro mulgated, and to which Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN to a certain extent lent the sanction of his name. Once satisfy the lower and un educated classes of the lawfulness of an appeal to arms, that there may be any possible combination of circumstances that will justify them in setting the authorities at defiance, and arraying themselves in open hostility against the law of the land, and they will easily and speedily be convinced that the time has come for a display of force, and for a universal opposition to any law by which they may feel them selves incumbered. The present moment is unhappily too well calculated for the creation and extension of such a feeling. The small farmers and cottiers have beheld with dismay the mysterious visitation that has prevailed throughout the entire country blighting the crops, and spreading desolation in every locality ; they have witnessed the total de struction of that species of food to which alone they looked for support and maintenance during the autumn and winter. By other kinds of produce they procured means for the payment of their rent, and the few and trifling necessaries with which they were so easily contented—for the possession of comforts or luxuries never en tered into the most sanguine imagination—but the potato was to them literally the staff of life, they lived on it, and it alone. If the supply was plentiful and the quality good they were contented; and if they could add thereto an occasional salt herring, or the thick sour milk from which the cream had been re moved, they envied not the tables of the great ; but a scarcity thereof was attended with misery and sufferings that could scarcely be cre dited in this more favoured country, and which could only be endured by a people patient under privations, unrepining and submissive under the most grievous afflictions. If an insufficiency of the potato was attended with such lamentable and heart- rending results, what can be looked for ward to, or hoped for, when there has been a total, an universal destruction. The people have wit nessed the progress of the disease with feelings to which it would be impossible to give expression. They have regarded their helpless families with the most gloomy forebodings, and have almost given themselves up to despair. It is then at such a time that they are peculiarly exposed to the seductions of the tempter—that any the wildest suggestions find a ready response ; there is no proceeding or line of conduct, that holds out the slightest prospect for the future, which will not readily be adopted. A rude and natural logic convinces them that rents can only be paid out of the surplus produce of the land, after the wants and ne cessities of the occupiers and cultivators of the soil are first met and provided for; famishing and hungry multitudes will easily be persuaded of the propriety and justice of retaining in their own hands the means of support, of keeping life and soul together. Great conciliation and forbearance is necessary at such a crisis on the part of the landowners, and any undue severity, any harsh or oppressive act s at once inflames the passions, and fans into flame the elements of combustion. Of course there are persons, as there ever save been, blind to the signs and the necessities of the times, who look only to their own wants, and by any means, however oppressive, seek to enforce a sa tisfaction of their demands; the law in all its stringency is put into operation, and the cottier's hut is swept of its wretched furniture; the pig, which can alone make use of the diseased potato and turn to some profit the rotten mass, is taken from him; and the horrors of his all but hopeless position are increased and aggravated by the cruelty and heartless rapacity of his landlord. Then co open and uriiiisguised opposition to he Is supported and its' neighbours, 10- _...es the , we law, in which ~.-wed by his sympathising ••40 think that his case may be their own. They assemble in ..iulthudes at the place of sale, to overawe and in timidate those disposing of the property and those who might haply beco.ne purchasers. Their opposi tion is crowned with success ; the landlords who have reckleftsly provoked the collision 4144 fpra the • • speedil - consequences of their own acts, and in a cowardly and timid manner abandon the distresses they have made, and suffer the law to be set at defiance with impunity. The intelligence spreads like wildfire through the country. The same course is pursued in every instance, even where there are not circumstances of equal hardship; the mischief commenced by cruelty is consummated by pol troonery, and a fierce and universal warfare is waged against the rights of property. It is only to the vast and well-founded influence of Mr. O'CONNELL, and the cordial co-operation with him of the pastors and religions instructors of the people, that we can look for a termination of this fearful state, Hit has obtained their confidence, he has led them through many try ing scences, to the attainment of triumphant and bloodless victories. They know that they can place implicit dependence on his wisdom and sagacity— that he will do all within the power of man to conduct theni in safety through the difficulties with which they are environek His conduct bears the most honourable testimony to the purity and integrity of the motives by which he has been actuated through out his useful career. He has not seized the oppor tunity now afforded to him of further exciting the popular mind ; on the contrary, his counsels all are of peace and tranquillity ; he has pointed out, and brought prominently forward the good intentions of the Government—he has implored the people to refrain from crime and violence—he has promised that the people shall have fool Most sincerely do we hope that his exertions may be crowned with suc cess, and that no acts on the part of the people may delay the attainment of that to which they are justly entitled, and which can only be postponed by unwise or injudicious conduct on their own parts—viz., the obtaining of a full and perfect equality with England l i in all their civil, political, and municipal institutions.' The Vienna Gazette states that the instructions of Prince METTERNICH to M. MUNCH BELLINGHAUSEN, President of the Diet of Frankfort, on the subject of Holstein, relate only to the ties which bind Holstein to the German Confederation. " The question of succession, the only one alluded to in the letter patent of the King of Denmark, is left out of the question. Prince Metternich does not think the Diet a competent judge in the matter, it must be decided by the great powers, three of which at least are favour able to Denmark. The protest of the Duke of A UGUSTENBURGII against the letters patent of the King of DENMARK has been delivered to the Chancellor of the German Diet. The Augsburgh Gazette contains a letter, dated Tauris, July 28, which states that, on the Persian Government receiving information of the outrage committed on its Minister by the populace at Erze roum, Au EFFENDI, the Turkish Consul residing at Tauris, was arrested, and put into prison. We find the following in the Post•Arapt Gazette of Frankfort, under the date of St. Petersburgh, 27th August : " The commercial relations established since last year by the Governor-General of Trans-Caucasus, between the Russians and the mountaineers, are producing the most beneficial effects. The markets held at certain periods of the year, for carrying on barter, contribute much to connect the two people. and to inspire them with a love of peace. The annual market, held on the Bth of June in the town of Ekaterinodav, was very bril liant, and the inhabitants of the Transkuban communes attended it in great numbers. Before entering it the mountaineers were requested to lay aside their arms, to which they consented. The amount of business effected in barter is estimated at 10,000 silver roubles (the silver rouble is little more than four francs). The mountaineers would only take roubles, refusing paper money or bills. The trade in leeches, which are be coming scarce in Europe, begins to increase in Trans- Caucasus. Erivan, Imezetia, Mingrelia, and some can tons of Georgia, produce a great number. It is scarcely two years since they began to take them. Several foreigners wished to establish a monopoly in that trade, but the Government preferred its remaining free and exempt from duties." Madrid papers of the 3d have arrived. The announcement of the approaching marriage of the QUEEN with Don FRANCISCO had been received with great joy throughout all the provinces, but that of the proposed union between her sister and the Duke DE MONTPENSIER had created universal dissa tisfaction. Don FRANCISCO D'ASSIS will on his marriage be appointed Captain-General of the Army. His father, Don FRANCISCO DE PAULA is about to occupy the 'apartments in the palace which have been hitherto occupied by the INFANTA. Senor SIMON DE RonA has been appointed Political Chief of Madrid. The journals, with the exception of the Herald°, continue to protest against the marriage of the INFANTA with the Duke DE MONTPENSIER as illegal and contrary to the constitution of the kingdom. It is reported that Mr. BULWER, on being informed of the intended marriage with the Duke DE MONT PENSIER, addressed a note to the Spanish Cabinet, stating that " he had learnt with surprise that it was the intention of the Spanish Government to carry into effect the marriage of her MAJESTY and the IN FANTA simultaneously, and at a very early period ; that the proposed marriage of the latter with the Duke DE MONTPENSIER could not be regarded as a private and merely internal question but was, in every sense, a European one,. and of transcendant importance, and which might lead to the most serious complications; that in consequence, in the absence of any precise instructions from his Government, he should limit himself to protesting against all proceedings in the matter until he should receive further instructions." These papers contain intelligence from Portugal to the 29th of August. It is said that an absolutist guerilla force has appeared in the neighbourhood of Braga, andldefeated a part of the garrison of Chaves, which had been sent against it. These abso lutist guerillas, however, are not Miguelites, for they proclaim Donna MARIA DA GLORIA absolute queen, or, which is the same thing, with the Government of Don Jour; VI. The movement, however, is most probably suppressed ere this, as a considerable body of troops were marching to put it down. MADRID BOUM., SEPT. 3.--The Three per Cents. were done at 35k for cash ; the Four per Cents. at 21 R ; the Five per Cents. at 22A ; the Debt, without interest, at 6i ; and the Coupons, 201. We have received the Paris papers of Tuesday. They contain scarcely anything further on Spanish affairs. The Siecle, however, announces that MARIA Cilium/v.4. will, on the marriage of the QUEEN and her sister, come and reside in France ; and the Cour rier Francais says, " that the triumph of M. GulzoT in the affair of the marriage of Queen ISABELLA was only obtained at the price of an immense concession made to Great Britain by the Spanish Cabinet. This concession consisted in a treaty of commerce, of which the preliminaries were concluded between Mr. BuLwEn and M. ISTURITZ, after a long conference held on the 30th of August last at Madrid." The Spaniards in France denounce this marriage as a betrayal of their QUEEN, and a handing over of Spain to the power of her implacable enemies. The Journal des Daats contains a long article on the state of crime in France, and from the official returns which have been made, showing the number of recommitments which take place, it comes to the conclu sion " that the reforms in detail which have been tried in the central prisons have not produced the expected results, or rather that they have been completely in efficacious; that prisons as at present constituted and bagnes are irremediable sources of corruption, and that the only remedy for the evil is to be found in penitentiary reform." The Commerce is by b 0 Means pleased with the partial suspension of the ukase imposing a heaVy duty on French vessels entering Itu6sian ports. It says :---- t `The Ministry, b y di nt o f notes an d con f erences , go d after having twenty times told France that it Was about only roure t es t ru t ar h d arriving at a solution, at length obtains purely and simply the s us p ens i on o f a ukase which has caused irreparabl e i n j ury to our commerce, and this suspension Finland, for all r moreover, Its not ly general regardsnute.a Sr. l i bg eeh P with maintains t of a h e n s I Gulf a 0. s which will soo n b e i nterrupted by the ice, whilst the Cabinet u st us all its rigours on the BlackßlackßlackSea —' gate in alm os t , • r 11 ere our vessels can navi of Odessa an d ri," - every se"C)ne The transactions of si , e" • --.. wovements of its port are ne vertheless .....ucient importance; and for Marseilles, amongst r i tt l u . a . ; f o others, it holds out a sufficiently serious interest to have induced the agents of M. Gui Sot to procure the suspen sion of the fatal ukase to be extended to that market. Independently of its corn, Odessa carries on with Mar seilles and a great number of intermediate ports of Turkey, Greece, and Italy, a considerable export trade in tallow, wool, iron, leather, wax, caviare, potash, salted meat, cordage, sailcloth, tar, butter, and isinglass; its import trade consists of sugar, coffee, dye-woods, wine, brandy, cotton goods, grocery, cutlery, oil, tin, dried fruits, paper, silk, &c., and, if at the time when ourvessels were not burdened with an enormous differen tial duty, the poo of Odessa Wily sent to k'ranoe the ' average yearly value of 300,000 roubles, it received in French produce, or in foreign produce from French depots, to the amount of 2,500,000 roubles. After Turkey, France ranked first in the import trade ,Of the port of Odessa ; England came after us. Our Ministry, as it may be seen, does not confine itself to offending our moral interests ; it injures also our material interests, by its half satisfactions—by commercial negotiations, always incomplete ; all this proceeds from the same source : when a Cabinet is not national in its policy, it cannot be national in any other point of view." M. DUMON, the Minister of Public Works, has left Paris for England. During his absence his duties' will be performed by the Minister of Public Instruc tion, M. SALVANDT. The following report of Captain MARTIN, of the brig Furet, recently returned from the western coast of Africa, is published in the Semaphore (le Mar seilles:— " During my stay on the coast," says Captain Martin, "I was often visited by English and French cruisers, and I cannot speak in sufficient terms of praise of their conduct towards me. I met on every point numbers of English, American, Brazilian, :•;ardinian, and llamburgh vessels. The competition was, consequently, great, and the trans?ctions difficult. This stage of things was aggra,rated by the intestine wars, which pre vented the tribes of the interior from bringing their productions to the sea. At Gabon trade was imprac ticable. The native merchants, overwhelmed with debt, no longer offered any guarantee, and the authorities had not been instructed to prosecute them. The ex reme kindness of the French officers has been badly appreciated by them, and we have no influence whatso ever over them. Mr. Wilson, an English Methodist minister, settled in a village not far distant from Fort Aramale, makes many proselytes, and does not inspire them with the love of the French protectorate. The Catholic missionary, on the other hand, has been aban doned by the few natives who had collected round him. It is not from any want of zeal orinstruction on his part, but in order to succeed he should be allowed a certain sum of money, independent of his wretched appoint ments. The negro only respects the rich. Mr. Wilson is in that favourable condition in consequence of the funds placed at his disposal, and which enables him to be generous." The news from Algiers is to the 2d inst. It would appear, from the following extract from the Ahbar, that AID-EL-KADER is acquiring immense influence MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. (From The Sun of Last Night.) The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was qu'et. Sales, 6,000 bales, at previous rates. Shares were dull. By ship arrival we have accounts of May 10 from Melbourne, Port Phillip. These read satiifactorily. upon the whole, and, except that the colony was pro gressing quietly and steadily, we see very little to notice. The intelligence from the East Indies, received to-day, is satisfactory in a commercial point of view. The Funds have been•steady to-day, in the absence of any extensive dealings. Consols are 96 to 96k for pre sent transfer, and 96/ + for time. The premium on Exchequer-bills is still rather flat at lls. to 155., which ! is the result of money being somewhat dearer. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been quoted at 98i, and the Three per Cent. Reduced Annuities 961 to /. Band Stock is worth 210 to 211, which is the full advance of yesterday. The transactions in the Foreign Market are for the most part at slightly easier quotations. Spanish Five per Cents. have been quoted 26 ; j ; and the Three per Cents. 38 to I. Portuguese Four per Cents. have been 42/ to 43 for time. Belgian Four-and-a-Half per Cents. are 97, and Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. 59k. Mexi can Stock is at 251 4, and Equaddur 3i Brazil Bonds have realised 89/. In Shares there is very little doing, and prices re main in most respects the same as yesterday. ONE O'CLOCK CLOSIN 6 PRICES. in Morocco : " We have been informed that at the moment when an attaché of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs landed at Tangiers, from the steam corvette Veloce, to deliver dis patches to our Consul-General, the population of the town, the European in particular, were in a state of great uneasiness. Alarming reports were in circulation relative to the influence acquired by Abd-el-Kader in the east of Morocco. The intelligence received by land is not of a less serious import. The Emir is said to have approached Taza, a Moorish town, twenty-five leagues distant from the frontier, and to he openly con spiring against the Emperor. If our information be correct, it:is to be feared that a revolution will shortly come to pass in Morocco. The Emperor Abderrahman is in an embarrassing position. If he attacks the cham pion of the holy war, surrounded as he is with the sym pathies of the faithful, he risks his throne, and even his life. The danger for being remote is not less great, if he suffers him to go on. Under those difficult circum stances, the Emperor will probably confine himself to look on whilst we act, and pray fur our success, which will rid him of a dangerous enemy. A French expedi tion into Morocco consequently appears imminent." The Siecle publishes the following remarks on the present position of Algeria : " Abd-el-Kader is acting with absolute authority in Morocco, either from the connivance or want of power of the Emperor to resist, who confines the exercise of his authority to the towns, the populations of which are less fanatic. The Emir is not only recomposing his Deira, but is remounting his cavalry, and recruiting'his batta lions with Moroccomen. A generally accredited report, therefore, is, that he will this year take advantage of the absence of the Governor-General, and make a new attempt on Algeria. This does not appear to us to be without foundation. Abtl-el-Kader is condemned by his position to act whether he has or has not hopes of success. He must, at any price, keep up the fervour and fanaticism • of his adh;rents. To him repose is - abdication. But, although the Emir is forced to attack, it does not follow that he must succeed in surprising our columns, and throwing Algeria into alarm and confusion. The system of government adopted by Marshal Bugeaud may be condemned and often with reason; his military tactics may be criticised ; this is a question on the art of war on which competent men may differ. The Mar shal will defend himself by arguments or facts—that is his affair. We only protest against the assertion that Algeria is not in a condition to put down in an instant whatever attempts the Emir may make. That assertion is void of truth, and yet it causes anxiety in the minds of those who have sons fighting in Africa. Abd- el- Kader will, probably, again make an irruption into some part of the colony. This will happen this year, and again and again in subsequent years. Even the death of Abd• el-Kader would not put a stop to such en terprises ; it would only render them less dangerous. Algeria is on the confines of a barbarous empire, in which the authority of its rulers is ever precarious. Half a century will, probably, pass before our frontier towards Morocco becomes perfectly tranquil. The ques tion is, to prevent these inevitable incursions from penetrating into the interior. After what passed in 1845, it may be seen that this question was solved by the presence of 100,000 men. It remains to be solved by the establishment of a French population capable of protecting itself. It is said that the Go vernment has just come to a decision on a system of colonization to be adopted there. Civil colonization is, it is believed, to be employed- on the territories marked down as civil in the ordonnance of April, 1845, and military colonization on the mixed territories. This resolution, if really come to, will be in conformity with the opinions we have long ago expressed. But it is not our intention to open at present a discussion on this subject. We wish only to calm those inquietudes that may have been created by alarming reports. Abd-el- Kader could not succeed last year, when everything con spired in his favour, neither will he be more successful now, when our army. warned by experience, is keenly watching the Arabs." " The Minister of War," says the Constitutionnel, " anticipates the necessity of applying for an ex traordinary credit of 25,000,000 francs, to provide for the subsistence of the army in Africa. In Al geria and the south of France _the corn harvest is confidently expected to be below the average, and that-the barley and potato crops will be very deficient. This will certainly not amount to a dearth, but it will, in the apprehension of the Government, require a considerably increased expenditure in providing food for the army." The same journal states that a reinforcement of 1,600 men will be sent to Oceania.

Lord Dundonald has through the instrumentality of George Robins, sold his beautiful villa in the Regent's Park, and in consequence all the valuable miscellanies ' and the furniture throughout the mansion are to be sold by auction next week. The public view commences on Monday and Tuesday, and the sale continues Wednes day, Thursday, and Friday. The Noble Earl has dis played much of his acknowledged taste in the works of art which be selected during his sojourn in Italy some years since. The splendid chef d'oeuvres of Rossi are added to the collection ; the figures of " Eve at the Fountain," and " Musidora," will alone repay a visitor for a journey to see them—they are equal to anything of Canova's, and there are others that approach them in merit. There are a few pretty pictures from the Dutch and Flemish galleries, and' some beautifully executed bronzes. Then comes, last, " though not least in our dear love," (Shakspere), the incomparable wines. No one ever doubted the Noble Earl's taste, and it will be found exemplified here.

' inontia I 5 tut LONDON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1846, The hurried departure of the Governor-General of Bombay for England, in consequence of his alarm ing indisposition, has been productive of the extra ordinary express from India published in another portion of The Sun. By the resignation of Sir GEORGE ARTHUR—a resignation which, from his protracted illness, has been long anticipated—the government of Bombay is temporarily placed under the direction of the Honourable Mr. REID, senior member of the Council. Whoever may be selected to succeed the late Governor-General will be wel comed with enthusiasm by the colonists, if he only possess a decided character for activity, lenity, and liberality, some inconvenience having resulted from the unfortunate state of debility into which the con stitution of Sir GEORGE ARTHUR had latterly fallen, and the consequent dilatoriness superinduced in the movements of his administration. Whenever the principal magistrate of any territory is enervated by disease, the actions of his magistracy are necessa rily effete and sluggish. Sir G. CLERK is generally regarded as the most probable candidate for the ap pointment; but a short time will disclose whether an office so lucrative and influential will be awarded to him or to Sir HENRY POTTIN GER . Th e latter ,;,/ouid, undoubtedly, carry with him a vast PredP;minating prestige, which might augur well for the, future cf mercial and political prosperity of Borabay.
