TO THF: EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR-i have noticed in several of the public prints an article on pencil Cedar, in which it states, if the lining of drawers in which clothes arakept is made of it, no - moths or other destructive insects will get into them. To this fact I beg to add, that if the laths of bedsteads are made of this most useful article it will entirely free them from all vermin ;. nothing is so conducive to the congregations •f these pests as rope and sackiiig.

Although a newspaper is not the ordinary channel for the expression of opinion upon the merits of a medical work, this andis open to exception in any instance where the public, sa , - " ci not the isolated and exclusive members of the profession, e t he parties addressed.

The unavoidable consequence of this is, that we meet a very considerable proportion of indifferent, useless, and even bad books. With the force of this prejudice on our minds, we with no little reluctance were induced to peruse Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood ;" nor did it re quire much perusal fully to satisfy us that the book was not one of the common stamp. The scientific views taken by the authors of the source and origin of many of the most distressing effects of certain depraved habits, fully establish their claim to the character of experienced and judicious surgeons. To quote passages from the work its proof of our assertion would be departing from the established rules of the daily press. The result, however, of our careful perusal of the work, has been to impress us with a thorough confidence in the talent and skill of the authors, and to satisfy us that those entrusted with the care of youth are not a little indebted to them for fur nishing them with a means of preventing some of the most frightful maladies to which flesh is heir.--Old England. Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood," is one of the few books now coming before the public on such a subject which can lay claim to the character of being strictly professional, at the same time that it is fully intelligible to all who read it. The moral and medical precepts given in it, render it invalu able. —Magnet. The perusal of Messrs. Curtis's book entitled " Manhood," has really astonished us by developing a series of maladies, the never -failing consequence of the vicious habit of which it treats. The clear connexion pointed out between the assigned cause and the effects is perceptible to every capacity. We strongly recommend the work.—Age. The multitude of books daily coming from the press, some, nay most of them of a very questionable tendency, made us ex • 1 tremely reluctant to take up another. Having, however, been I induced by the character given of this work by an intelligent friend, we ventured to open its pages, and now feel no hesita• tion in saying that we arise from its perusal instructed and edified.

" GENTLEMEN,—I feel it a duty I owe to you and to the Public at large, to acknowledge the most important benefit I have received from PARR'S LIFE PILLS. I was for nine years a soldier in the 52d Regiment of Foot, and was discharged in October 1839, in consequence of ill health (being deemed con sumptive), after having the best advice her Majesty's service afforded. I returned to my native town, feeling that my days could not be long on earth. But by what almost appears an in terposition of Providence, my attention was directed to Parr's Life Pills, and by taking only two 2s. 9d. boxes, I was com pletely cured, and am thus a living monument to the good ef fected by this valuable medicine. Within the last few days I have been on a visit to some of my friends in a neighbouring village, where I was told that It was like seeing one risen from the dead, to see me walking through their streets.' I have recommended them to my neighbours, and many of them have experienced very great benefit from their use. " I am, Gentlemen, yours, &c. JOHN OSBORNE. " March 8. 1841. Witness—James Burgess, Bookseller, Hinckly." Mr. John Osborne's case was pronounced by the regimental doctors to be incurable consumption. By the aid of this won derful medicine he is now so hearty and active as to be en abled to travel on foot, since the date of his recovery, upwards of 1,200 miles. CAUTION OF GREAT IMPORTANCE. Purchasers are requested to ask for " Parr's Life Pills," as their great and deserved reputation, and consequent large sale, have induced several unprincipled parties to attempt various imitations. Persons who are desirous of testing the wonderful efficacy of this medicine, must observe that none are genuine without the words PARR'S LIFE PILLS be engraved on the Government Stamp, on white letters on a red ground. Already actions have been brought, and damages obtained, against unprincipled parties, who, for the sake of larger gain, have sold dangerous preparations when asked for " Parr's Life Pills." The Proprietors are determined to protect the public from such frauds, by prosecuting all persons engaged either in preparing or selling any imitation whatever.

SINGULAR INSTANCE OF LONGEVITY.— Died at Valencia, on the 18th of Noveniber, in his 106th year, Mr. John Murphy, commonly called " Paul Jones." He had been taken prisoner by that remarkable man, commanding a French squadron off the coast of Kerry. When he sent a boat ashore at Valentia for a supply of water the people seized on the boat and crow, and young Murphy being on board his vessel at the time, as pilot, Paul Jones carried him off, and he was compelled to serve for two years in a French frigate, during which time he accumulated a good sum of prize-money. He lived on potatoes and milk, and, notwithstanding his wealth, never increased his comforts. He was a remarkably strong man, and, till within the last two years, hale and robust, and walked and rode. He voted at the election of 1834.

ARRIVAL OF THE BRITANNIA. LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY MORNING. The Britannia, with the mails from Boston and Halifax, entered our river last night a little before eleven o'clock. Owing to the weather being thick, and occasion ally wet, we had no notice of .her .ap proach from any of the telegraph stations, and her firing of guns as she entered , the river was the first signal of her approach. She is un der the command of Captain Hewet, and has completed a stormy passage in 12 days. She had 27 passengers. The Caledonia, which sailed hence on 4th November, arrived out at Halifax, on the 15th, making the voyage in 11 days ; the friends of those who sailed irk her will, therefore, hear of their safe arrival out before the expiration of the same month in which she sailed. There is very little political news by this arrival. Mr. Clay was reported to have resigned, in consequence of his health requiring him to go South for the winter. General SCOTT has been taken up by the Whig party very generally, and stands a fair chance of succeeding to the Presidency. The right of search for slaves exercised by the British flag on the African coast; the annexation of Texas to the ITnitt-Statee -the disPetea Boundary Question, which had again caused some angry feelings and quarrels amongst the settlers on the border, are pointed out as subjects to engage the attention of Congress on their meeting. There is important news from Mexico. The non-arrival of Sir C. Bagot had caused some anxiety in Canada, as he had been re ported to have sailed from England in the Styx steamer some weeks previously. The weather there continued mild. Business generally was , said to have im proved. Cotton had slightly declined in price; for other produce the demand was xnoderate and steady. There was a considerable demand for bills and specie for remittance by the steamer. The rate of exchange on London was 10 to 101; on Paris sf. 20c. A large amount of specie had been remitted by the steamer, and more would be sent by the Great Western. In fact, the market was bare of bills at the close of the day, few of the Southern or Cotton bills being yet in the market, rendering bills scarce. A further decline in Stocks is reported. There has been a report in circulation that Bishop . Moore had died at Lynchburg, Va. The Richmond En quirer of a late date, states that Bishop Moore was much better, and considered to be out of danger. * MASSACHUSETTS ELECTION.—In two hundred and ninety-eight towns, the vote stands for Davis, 54,255 ; Morton, 49,761.

We think lie may be as sured of a numerous and . enlightened auditory.—New York Paper. MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS. NEW YORK MONEY MARKET.-SUNDAY NIGHT, At the Stock Exchange yesterday, the sales were pretty extensive, hnt generally at a decline_in prices from those obtained the day previous. Sales of a large amount of Indiana Dollar Bonds were made, closing at a de cline of / per cent. A small amount of Indiana Ster ling Bonds sold at a decline of per cant. $2,000 of New York State Fives of '5B at per cent. lower than the last sale. Illinois States of 70 improved per cent. ; United States Bank Stock fell off 1 ; Delaware and Hudson, - 4 1 -, ; Canton Company, a ; Mohawk HR. h ; and Farmers' rrust 5 per cent. Harlem RR. advanced , and Paterson HR. per cent. During the week past there has been a fair business done in stocks generally, and prices were a little higher than at the first of the week. The prices of State Stocks are far below what could ever have reasonably been expected, and, from present appearances, we should not be surprised if they went lower, before any permanent improvement takes place. The same doubts, difficulties, and embarrassments, that now exist relative. to our Western State Stocks, existed a year ago, and yet large sales are daily made at prices nearly fifty per cent. lower than they were readily bought at then. The mere fact of the present revenue of the Western States, being insufficient to allow them to pay the in terest on their'debts, we do not think is sufficient to justify the enormous depreciation of their bonds, in this and European markets, ancl not the slightest apprehen sion should prevail as to the Western States ever repu diating their debts. We have not, and never have had, any doubt but that the States will be able ultimately to discharge all their indebtedness, and the rapid and extraordinary increase of population and wealth, affords the strongest assurance that this will be the.ase. There is no doubt whatever of these States doing everything to preserve their honour and integrity, and it should be remembered that the very improvements, for the making of which their debts were created, are only partially completed, and consequently unproductive.

BALTIMORE, Nov. 1 4 . — The arrangement with the amount or materially damaged, fruit, Franklin Bank has been noticed by you, and it is there fore unnecessary for me to speak of it at large. The plan is for the bank to receive and pay out of the stock orders of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, and that accounts would be kept exclusively in that species of currency, of which there is about a million and a half out. The arrangement goes into effect to-morrow ; already have many persons opened accounts with the bank. So far, the effect on the railroad orders have been decidedly fa vourable, the discount which on Wednesday was 10 a II per cent., was done at 5 to 7 yesterday. What will be the ultimate effect time can best tell. Our money market remains comparatively easy—the banks taking generally all good notes offered them. There is some inquiry for Maryland and Baltimore city stock, and s's of the former are in demand at 80, and s's of the latter at 85, and wanted. Exchange on.

THE BOUNDARY QUESTION. It is now our duty to announce that the information we had previously received of an open invasion of British territory by the Americans, for the purpose of making an ex parte survey, is beyond all dispute confirmed—and that, further, the Americans are making the most active and energetic preparations for the settlement of the dis puted territory—that they are penetrating north further and further every day—that they are cutting down and carrying away the most valuable timber —that they have actually opened a channel to connect the waters of St. John with the: waters of the Penobscot River. (From the Quebec Gazette of Nov. 1.) The people of the State of Maine and of the United States, while large sums of money are paid by England to negotiators, boundary CoMmissioners, surveyors, explo rers, &c., have long been taking possession of th e " dis puted" territory. They first step over " the height of land which separates the waters falling into the St. John from those of therivers within the A merican territory,and pitched themselves at Houlton, near Woodstock, on the waters of the St. John ;,then they proceeded, in 1839, 30 miles farthOr "to the north, to the Arostook, also falling into the St. John, and there erected " Fort Fairfield ;" they then came to the month of the Fish River, another 30 or 40 miles, and established themselves at " Fort Jarvis," on the St.' John's, a few miles above Madawaska, making roads, granting lands, establishing settlements through GO or 70 miles of the territory . " in dispute," and no part of which they bad 'ever occupied before the commence ment of the negotiations, &c., about the boundary, under the treaty of 1783, and the treaty of Ghent in 1814. If we are to believe the New Brunswick papers, the Maine people are now on the southern branch of the St. John's, called the Allaguash, about 90 miles south east from Quebec, where they are lumbering, and have ma naged to cut a communication between the said branch of the St. John and the Keacr b ouagan lake, which falls in the west branch of the Penobscot. We shall probably hear of them, by and by, on the Etchemin and Chaudiere. (Further Extracts from the American Papers.) LATEST FROM FLORIDA.—By the steamer Newbern, Capt. M‘Nelty, the Editors of the Georgian have receieed the following , from a Correspondent_ EAST FLORIDA, Nov. s.—Sam Jones' party in the Big Cypress have separated. Sam is on the Lossabatchie. Alleck Tustenugge has joined him. Par-sare-i-mi-co, one of the Chiefs late in co-operation with Jones, has sur rendered, together with 36 of his people. 38 of Tiger Tail's people have arrived at Tampa. Runners have been despatched by Tiger Tail, in pursuit of the remain der. Lieut. Sprague, A. D. C., and Lieut. Roffman, with a detachment of twenty men, left fort King, yesterday for .the Vallee Sake, to endeavour to open a communication with some Indians, supposed to reside in that neighbour hood. Alligator and Tiger Tail accompanied them. Two friendly Indians are now hunting for some of their people east of the St. John's. Two more are up the Ocla waha. Both parties are the bearers of a talk from Tiger Tail. The movement upon the Big Cypress commenced on the Ist instant. My word ter it—the war will be over by the Ist March next. (From the New Orleans Commercial Bulletin.) MEXICO. By the schooner Emblem, Captain Henry, which ar rived yesterday from Matamoras, we have received some items of Mexican intelligence. A kind of epidemic, very fatal in its effects, prevailed at the departure of the Emblem. The British Consul had fallen a victim to its virulence. By some it was believed that the disease had been imported into Matamoras by a vessel from New Orleans. After a prolonged struggle, Santa Ana has succeeded in overturning the Government. Bustamente, it is said, is imprisoned, and at the mercy of the conqueror, around whom have rallied the troops and other com manders. This result, from the information we have received, appears indubitable. Whatever opinion we may have formed of Santa Ana, his tact and ability are beyond dispute. Of this, his popularity is perhaps the best evidence. We anticipated this event almost as soon as we heard of his having raised the standard of revolt, and of his efforts to sow the seeds of popular discontent among the masses. We have not learnt the details respecting this revolu tion, but it is probable that the capital of Mexico has suffered greatly, as the intestine war commenced within its precincts, and has been there decided after a contest of several weeks. What will be Santa Anna's future course ? Will he re-establish in all its purity and simplicity the Con stitution of 1824 ? Will he convoke a Convention to form a new Constitution ? or will he seek to create a military despotism ? If the hero of San Jacinto be powerful enough, he will undoubtedly prefer the latter alternative. But he is too skilful openly to con tend with public opinion. In the interim, rumour de clares that the new Government is about to despatch ex peditions for the purpose of subduing those provinces which have had the audacity to declare themselves inde pendent, such as Texas, Carnpeachy, and Tobasco ; this circumstance would lead to the belief that it is Santa Ana's intention to organize a strong Government ! in other words, a military rule. Santa Ana should, how ever, remember that if the laurels of victory sometimes conceal the chains of servitude, his must be a powerful and practised hand that attempts to gather them. (From the New Orleans Bee, Nov. 3.) The Fever, thank God ; has left us for aye. The reports of the Board of Health may show now and then an isolated case of death from this cause ; but as an epidemic, or even as a source of danger to the new comer, its terrors have departed. We are likely to remember the season of 1841, as the most fatal which has for years afflicted our city. There seems but little profit or pleasure in reminiscences of morta lity, and yet the mind cannot help 'recurring to this direful scourge, and reflecting sorrowfully on its victims —among which nearly every citizen can number a friend or a relative. Among the better classes and more valued members of society, its ravages have been this year ap palling. It appeared to seek out with a surprising tena city of virulence, every individual whom exemption for a long series of years had inspired with the confidence of safety. It spared few indeed—and when we state that the deaths did not exceed ten per cent. of the sick, and that the records of the Board of Health will exhibit a total of about 1,500 fatal cases, some idea may be formed of the immense number attacked. But the foe has abandoned us, sated with slaughter, and driven from its prey by the propitious action of the elements. Away then with gloomy recollections and let us rejoice at the return of public health. Business dawns once more upon us; strangers begin to arrive; old friends are flocking in; the streets are re-filling; the thoroughfares wear a busy and thronged aspect; the cares, bustle, pleasure of the present, and anticipations of the future occupy every mind, and the horrors of the past will soon be remembered no more. Forgetfulness is sometimes a beneficent faculty. We have heard it suggested that the public authorities should recommend to the citizens the observance of some appointed time, as a day of humiliation, thanksgiving, and prayer. If we have been sorely afflicted, we have still much that should command our gratitude to the Giver of all Good. We cordially unite in the sugges: tion, and hope it will be carried into effect. CASUALTY.—A man, in a state of intoxication, at tempted to go on board the steam-boat Belle on Friday evening, but being, refused on account of his situation, he went ashore and this morning was found drowned in the dock. He came up from New York a. few days since, and stated that he belonged to Brooklyn. He had with him twelve boxes of smoking pipes, eleven of which are now remaining. He was decently buried by the audio rides of the town. His name is unknown.—New Haven Herald. FIRE.—A fire broke out between nine and ten o'clock this morning, in a barn situated in Grove-street, next to the old Hillhouse mansion, the property of Messrs. Wilcox and Co., iron founders. The building was en tirely consumed, together with most of its contents, consisting of a waggon, some agricultural implements belonging to Mr. T. Fowler, a quantity of hay, &c., not insured. Just one week since a similar occurrence took place in the barns of Dr. Eneas Monson, situated in the same neighbourhood ; both were the work of in cendiaries. Are we to have a renewal of those alarms which constantly disturbed the city a few years since ? If so, we may set this down as No. 2, second series. We trust vigilant measures will be pursued to find out' these base incendiaries.-1V ew Haven Herald. WILLIAM AND MARY COLLEGE.—The Richmond Whig says. the Session at this venerable seat of learning has opened under most encouraging auspices. A letter of the sth inst. says :—" I take great pleasure in stating, that in spite of the pecuniary embarrassments of the coun try, our College has opened with very bright prospects. We have now about 90 students, and shall no doubt have a greater number before the termination of the course. The Law Department is particularly flourishing—con taining a larger number than have ever before entered at so early a period of the course." ATTEMPT AT POISONING.—Captain Heath, of the ship Swanton, from Liverpool, which arrived yesterday, brought his steward (a coloured man) to this port in irons, for an attempt to poison his crew, consisting of nine in dividuals. It appears that while at sea, on the Ist of October, the steward mingled corrosive sublimate with the crew's food. The proofs of this were flagrant, as the poisonous mineral was found upon his person. The crew were all exceedingly ill for some time, and one of them now remains in a most critical condition. The culprit has been handed over to the proper authorities to be dealt with as the law directs.—New Orleans Bee, November 5. MORE OF THE LATE LYNCHING. It iS said that the unfortunate man who was lately murdered and found in the river near the Grand Gulf, was a citizen of that town, and had resided there a number of years. He and the others, who were badly beaten, were only suspected of entertaining Abolition principles. We learn that seven persons have been arrested and committed to gaol under the charge of having participated in the murder. Little love as we have for the Abolitionists—and it certainly is not very intense—it is impossible to read such accounts as the above, which we copy from the New Orleans Picayune, without deep horror and de testation. If the mere suspicion of Abolitionism is to subject people to Lynch murder, it is time to look a little into the tenure by which every American citizen holds his life. The truth is, this Judge Lynch must be im peached, and either hanged or banished the country. His adjudications have been submitted to abou theretlong eno ugh. It is bad enough , and too bad, that should be so strong a disposition exhibited in the shield criminals from the co nsequences of co untry . to their misdeeds, but it is abundantly Worse that we should tolerate self-appointed tribunals to punish the susP eeted without any authority of regular law, and o f ten e w ith o ut any actual offence on the p ar t o f tha accuse d.— es New York Paper. SHIPWRECKS. (From the Courier and Inq u i rer o f the 15th of Nov.) We mentioned on Saturday the loss of the ship John Taylor, of 750 tons, belonging to M essrs. Taylor and Morrill, of this city. By advices from Havannah of the 30th ult. we learn that she sailed from Liverpool on the sth of September, with a cargo of salt, crockery, and a few fine goods ; also a hundred and seventy-five steer age passengers. She was driven on shore in a gale on the aught of the 1 8 th ult. south s id e o f C u b a , a f ter losi ng her sails and masts. Only one life was lost, that of a steerage passenger, a native of Sheffield. The ship was valued at 50,000 dols., and the salt at about 20,000 dols. Both are insured in Wall-street. _ _ Consul Trist at Havannah,. has made an appeal to the British and American residents in aid of the passengers of the above vessel. He says—" On the 20th, the vessel had not made any water, and should the weather mode rate, it would be practicable to obtain provisions for the subsistence .of the people on shore.

This is the condition of the country at the moment when the disaster to the John Taylor has occurred ;. the land is flooded, the roads are impassable, and the dearth of every necessary of life exists. Such being the circumstances, the situation of the sufferers from the wreck can be readily conceived ; and' the appeal which it makes to humanity will be felt by every one." The bark Peru (of Gardiner), from Newport, England, 23d September, for Baltimore, put into Bos ton, on. Friday; leaky. 31st ult., lat. 42 57, len. 53, wood sprang a leak in the run, near . the ends, in a gale from S.W., which kept one pump continually going to free her. 4th inst., lat. 58 40, lon. 57 A -, fell in with the schooner Barnard, Gardner, from 'Grand Bank for Marblehvad, and requested her to keep company, which Capt.

Capt. James Yates, of Bristol, was master, and Capt. Wilson Yates, of same town, mate. The crew were shipped at another port. The Groton was about five years old, and was mostly owned by James R. Groton, Esq., of Brewer, Me, and the cargo by several shipowners in Waldoboro'; no insurance on either. Schooner Moro, of Fremen, towed into Portland re cently, had been abandoned by her crew off Seguin, in con sequence of losing thohead of her foremast. She was bound to Boston u ith wood and bark, and also had several hundred dollars worth of dry goods, shipped by P. Barry. Extract of a letter fi•dm S. W. Thompson, Esq., to W. R. Jones, Esq., Secretary of Board of Underwiters, dated St. Louis, Nov. 2," 1841:—"I have to say that the steamboat Zephyr, on her way down from Pittsburgh for this place, is sunk in the Ohio river, near Scittneten Bar. Cargo mostly'dry goods. As soon as the mani fest of her cargo arrives, and I find there are goods on board insured in New York, shall go to her. The cargo will be saved, damaged. The river continues very low." BERMUDA, Nov. 2.—The brigantine Queely Shiel, Capt. Watlington, out twelve days from Halifax, bound to Montserrat, put into St. Georges on Thursday last, under jury foremast, having en the Thursday before (21st Jilt.) in lat. 35 50, long. 62, during a severe gale, cut away her foremast. The Life-boat Association having built a life-boat to present to the Prince de Joinville, on his return to this city, have, at the request of several mercantile houses, consented that it should be tendered in behalf of the American merchants of New York. A list is opened at the Merchants' Bank, where subscriptions in sums under 05 will be received by V. J. Cammann, cashier. ASSASSINATED.—The well-known Englishman who has long been the leading spirit of the Mexican Navy, named Captain T. M. Thompson, and who, by way of contra distinction was usually called Mexican Thompson, has been stabbed at Tobasco and killed. An officer who was with Thompson at the time, killed the assassin. PAINFUL ACCIDENT--On Saturday laSt, Mrs. Childs, of Philadelphia, lady of Mr. Childs, the dentist, went to a drawer for a match to light a candle, and rubbing it upon the board to ignite it, the end flew off and set fire to a quantity of powder which had been left in the same drawer, or near it, in the haste of a removal. An ex plosion followed, which so greatly injured the lady, that she died shortly afterwards. MORE LYNCHING.—Another atrocious outrage is re corded in the Vichsburg Sentinel, lately committed on the Big Black Island, near the Grand Gulf, by a band of out laws. Many poor ignorant woodcutters were most inhu manly whipped, and a Mr. Kirkwood basely murdered by the Lynchers. They blindfolded him, pinioned him, took him to the river bank, and after getting him in a boat, plunged a bowie knife into his heart, and then threw him into the river. It is said that the parties con cerned in these disgraceful outrages are known in Grand Gulf, and that some of the leading Lynchers have fled. FRANKLIN, LA. , OCT. 20, 1841.—MURDER.—Captain John De Hart, a planter of this parish of St. Mary, living some ten miles from this place, was shot on Saturday levening last and killed instantly. He had been in town r that day, and on returning home sat down to his supper, when he told his servant to go out and bring in a seine. While the servant was out the murder was committed. From the range of the shot it appears that the murderer must have crawled up to the edge of the gallery and shot him through the door at a distance of about twenty feet. The gun was heavily loaded with buckshot. The shot in a mass seems to have struck him in the left tem ple, and blew oft' the whole of the upper part of his head, scattering his brains and pieces of his skull about the room and even among the food he was eating. A more horridly mangled corpse has never been seen in Attaka pas. Captain De Ilart was the only white person living on his plantation. His negroes sent off to the neighbours for assistance, which was promptly rendered. A coro ner's jury was held next morning, and it appeared from the testimony of one of the negroes, that soon after the gun was fired a man was seen to mount a horse and ride rapidly away. There was other testimony confirming this. The same man was seen to pass the next planta tion below. Thus the matter rested. Considerable tes timony was taken, but nothing to direct suspicion to wards any person. Several persons remarked, however, that they did not like the appearance of the negroes on the plantation. They appeared sullen—said but little to each other—and several of the men kept away from the corpse. On Tuesday another effort was made by the Hen. Wm. T. Palfrey and our police-officer, Mr. John Martin, by whose efforts and skilful management it was made to appear that the horrid crime was committed by six of Capt. De Hart's negroes. They have been arrested and committed to prison, and have made confession, ac knowledging that six of them had laid a plot two months since to commit the horrid crime, and that three of them were actually engaged in the fiendish act. Two of them stood by aiding and assisting while the third aimed and discharged, with too fatal precision, the deadly weapon. Capt. De Hart has been for a long time a citizen of our parish. He was a native of New Jersey, and formerly commenced the steamboat business, the second or third boat on the Mississippi. He was highly respected in the community, and has left a family of children, now ab sent, to mourn his untimely end. RESUMPTION.—The New Orleans Bulletin of the 18th ult. says :—" It is rumoured that at the meeting of Bank Presidents to be held on Monday next, the subject of re sumption of specie payments is to be discussed, and, if possible, resumed. The object which is endeavoured to be attained is most desirable, and the subject itself is deeply interesting to the whole community. But it is useless to mince matters; a resumption of specie pay ments that stands any chance of being permanent—and any other would do far more harm than good—cannot be brought about, without a frank, cordial, and liberal support be given by the stronger to the weaker banks. who was - - p conte u ri E n IpNrisFolinisa°tNlT.—evjaoys,ernhdiawna., Place, ng his trial for shooting at and severely wounding two young ladies, committed suicide on the 16th October by taking poison. TEMPERANCE AT TEE WEST.—The Pittsburgh lntoili gencer says that a great Western Temperance Conven tion was held at Pittsburgh on the 20th and 21st inst., consisting of delegates and members from Western Penn sylvania and adjacent portions of Ohio and Virginia. Forty-five Temperance and Total Abstine nce S ocieties were represented in the Convention, and th e I ntelligencer states that directly and indirectly they represented at least twenty-five thousand persons, who have within the last year joined tho Temperance and Total Abstinence o.ieties. Loss OF THE BUNKER HILL.._From the second en gineer of the steamboat Bunker Hill, running from this port to Hartford, Conn., who returned to this city yes terday in the Bridgport boat, we learn that the Bunker Hill, Captain Hunlingdon, ran upon a reef called Corn field Point, situated near Saybrook, in the Sound. She left here on Saturday afternoon, with a good freight and a number of passengers, landed at New London about 10 P.M., and soon after a dense fog came on, during which she ran upon the reef aforesaid and sunk, but at high water was brought to the shore. Upon examination it was found that her back was broken, three holes stove in her bottom, and the deck started up. The passengers and crew, with their baggage, escaped in safety, but the boat, and it is feared greater part of the freight, will be a total loss. The boat is owned by Captain Sanford, and worth from 30,000 to 50,000 dollars—no insurance. —Sun. The largest red oak tree in North America, says a correspondent of the Nachitoches Herald, can be seen on the plantation of W. Smith, Esq., eighteen miles from Nachitoches on the road leading to Opelousas. This majestic oak stands in the midst of a rich and heavy bottom, on the Bayou St. Barb. Two feet from the ground it measures forty-four feet in circumference : and at six feet, thirty-two feet. The trunk appears sound and healthy, and its height to the branches is from fifty to sixty feet. NEW ORLEANS, OCT. 27.—The number of deaths up notice i thenumbere to yesterday noon was 15, of which 10 were of y ellow fever. Am.osn.gNtahveyd-easathnstwhee tce that of Dr. of deaths W.

TIIE JEW AND NIS POUND OF FLESII.—Some days ago a gentleman from Mobile came to this city, and while here was arrested for debt, at the instance of a citizen of this place. Bail was found ; but the inexor able creditor refused to let the stranger return to his family;though he pleaded hard for the immunity, fearing lest he might fall a prey to the pestilence. In a day or two after the unfortunate debtor was seized with the fever, and on Sunday evening was carried to his scare.—New Orleans Advertiser. TO. THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. PROM TYE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. TIMES:—The premium on gold at Paris is 5 per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 100, per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25. 27. and the exchange at Paris on Loudon at' short being 25. 45.,- it follows that gold is 0.72 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 428 per mark; %Ada; at the English Mint price of 31.175. lOid. .per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13. 6i, and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13. 7i-, it follows that gold is 0. 58 per cent.dearer in London than in Hamburgh. The course of exchange at New York on London is 110 per cent., and the par of exchange between Eng land and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is 0.43 per cent. in favour of England. But the quoted exchange at New York being for bills at 60 days' sight, the interest must be added to the above difference. POST.—A considerable amount of business was clone in the English Funds again to-day, and, as a large pro 'portion of it was through., the Chancery sad Govern ment brokers, the sales preponderating over the pur chases, the ingenuity of the dealers has been a good deal taxed in the endeavour to ascertain more clearly the cause of the movement. The putting out of stock, to make good the assumed deficiency in the five million Exchequer bill operation, is one among the many that have been surmised as probable, but it has become a question with well-informed persons whether the distress which unfortunately prevails among the labouring classes in some.parts of the country, may not have led to an unusual draft upon the funds of the savings' banks, The supposition that such is the fact may be by no means a correct one. There are possibly several motives for the sales that are going on in action together ; y e t t h e sug gestion seems to be entitled to the attention of moneyed men. On the close of the transfer-books for Consols, which. will take place in the course of two or three days, preparatory to the payment of the January dividends, it will at all events be seen how far the operations of the leading brokers are in connection with the savings' banks. If sales of stock on their account should still be found indispensable, they will be made, of necessity, on the payment of the accustomed fee. Money, in the English Stock Exchange, ruled at 5 to 6 per cent.; in the Foreign, at 6 to 7 per cent., on th e security of Stock. The Spanish finance agency in London, which was for some years conducted by Mr. de Zulueta, has, we hear, been transferred to the wealthy and respectable firm of Aguirre, Solarte. and Murieta, of the Old Jewry. The arrangement appears to be very satisfactory to the bondholders, and speaks well alike for the discrimination. and honest intentions of Senor Surra y Mill. Portugal postpones the payment of the interest due to-morrow (December Ist) on part of the old bonds and on her Treasury bonds. This early break flown of the new arrangement on the 50 per cent. abatement principle will shake the nerves of recent purchasers of her Stocks. A failure of large extent at Bordeaux, that of the house of Balgueric and Co., merchants and shipowners, was mentioned on 'Change yesterday, but to-d a y i t b ecame the leading topic o conversation. Bordeaux lost the chief portion of her commerce upon the great change that took place in the affairs of St. Domingo, the trade of which, in the south of France, was engrossed almost ex clusively by the merchants of that single port. Lately there has been little doing there, except in the wine and brandy export business, and in this there has been an active competition to sustain with Marseilles, Nantes, and other towns. The fall of the leading he:use named is, under the circumstances, ascribed to th. 6 gr a d ua l ex haustion of its resources. The failure of a Munburgh firm, with liabilities to the amount of 25,0001., announced here this morning, was also a subject of discussion. The importation of sovereigns from the Continent continues upon a large scale, and nothing but a deficiency in the weight of a proportion can p revent the accumu lation of a quantity perhaps inconveniently great i n th e coffers of the Bank of England. Of heavy coin comin g in, however, the supply is by no means inconsiderable. A new feature in this branch of business has to be noticed, as it appears to be quite a novel one of late. The iinpOrting house's': have, for the first time, received gold in bars for sale onaccount of their correspondents. " SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOtRNALS. FROM THE EVENING P.A.PERS OF YERTERDAY. , GLOBE.—The University of Oxford is at this • time the scene of a conflict, in which the con tending parties are zealously engaged in endea vouring to establish their claims to pre-eminence in the University, and ultimately in the Church, ostensibly originated in the questir,n, which of two candidates shall occupy the Poetry Chair. The real question thus placed hi issue is, whe ther the Puseyites shall b e exalted or depressed by the election or rejection of Mr. Williams, one of the Tractarians. Dr. Pusey labours ear nestly in behalf of his disciple and coadjutor. Mr. Garbett is put forward by those mem bers of Convocation who regard the theo logical doctrines of the Tracts for the Times as tending to introduce the doctrines and prac tices of Popery into the Church of England. The contention has waxed fiercer and fiercer as the time fixed for the election approaches. Much ink has been spilled and paper spoiled by the active partisans on both sides. The odium theo loyicum is displayed in full activity ; exempli fying the correctness of the old adage, that di vines manifest a greater degree of rancour in their contentions than any other class of disputants. In the midst of this heated controversy, the question, Whether Williams or Garbett be the best writer or judge of poetry—and consequently the best fitted to fill the Poetry Chair—seems to be almost, if not al together, merged in the inquiry, " Which is the most orthodox divine ?" according to the stan dard of orthodoxy adopted by the inquirer. The Senate of Oxford has condemned, the " Tracts"—Bishops have denounced then,as strongly imbued with the doctrines of 3 24 0 p ery , and as leading the people of this Protestan t- country back to Papal R0me...., an d yet, g f axprehen with these unequivocal tokens of strre w to ho th f e ro C n h i u th re a h, taught for doctrinespolaceissaopfptrlZ com mandments of men," and.' nave, e a u , the batiot o t o . t d * a t 17o g s e e: " the word of God v Church have tra ditions on a level with it " 'fly placing human en , placing r ff it e y ct a , n m d ade in fluence—we find no 2 ecclesiastical censure passed on the propounders of _ these dogmas—no t steps taken to p urge the Church of their heresies . STANDARD.—Dr. Pusey assumes , p er saltum, that the qualifications of NI Williams P for the Mr. ti office of Professor of Poetry, by which, accor din g to the tenour of his argument, he must mean talents as a poet and. a critic, are the very first in the University --so incontestibly the first, that no man can be opposed to him, e xcept upon some extraneous ground. This is going a little too far for a man, whose verses have not been read. or heard of, we are p ersua d e d, by one of a thousand of " the reading- public," and whose prose works, we believe, are limited to the "Tracts for the Times," including the Romanist article on "Reserve,"—the duty of withholding the Gospel from mankind. What! Mr. Williams the only fit Professor of Poetry to be found in. the Oxford Kalendar! We open it at a venture., and the first name presented by the sorter Kalenderiw, is that of John Gibson Lock hart, a first class man, and rather better known as a poet than Mr. Williams. The Quarterly Reviewer, and the inimitable trans lator of the Spanish ballads, will be surprised to. find his name in this article, but he must blam e his chance and the sortes. Why, there are in the Oxford Kalendar fifty names of men whom we should insult by comparing their pretensions as poets and critics with those of Mr. William s. It is, therefore, altogether a gratuitous assumption that Mr. Williams, because he has written mid dling verses, can be opposed only on theologi cal grounds. The having written swell verses, and having written such verses only—the fact of having written in "The Tracts for the Times," especially the "Reserve" essay— these facts aided by the championship of Doc tor Pusey, afford more than a Presumption that it is only upon theological grounds that Mr. Wil liams has been brought into the field as a second candidate. And these facts hold out a full assurance that the election of M r, Will iams will be received as "an assertion" solemnly made on the part of the University, " that the opinions of the Tract writers constitute a peremptory 7 •e -commendation for her offices of instruction." We have no fears that such an assertion will be con firmed. It was, we know, made some time since in Parliament, and then indignantly repel led. The University is not likely to be better disposed to acquiesce in it. The Board of General (•cers, o whief L .- Lieu t. General Sir Charles Dalbiac is President, sit daily at Whitehall, for the investigation .of matters -conneewd with the military branch of the service.
