We received last night, by the Caledonia, arrived at Liverpool, New York papers to the 17th ult. The PRESIDENT had lost his wife, and had retired for some time from the seat of Go vernment. There were reports of changes in the Cabinct, but none of them seem positive, except the resignation of Mr. WEBSTER, WllO will not again sit in the Cabinet. It is said Mr. FORWARD is to resign the Treasury, and be suc ceeded by Mr. CUSHUNG. Mr. LOUIS M'LANE is named as likely to succeed Mr. WEBSTER. On the 9th this gentleman was at Boston, and had agreed to meet his fellow-citizens, who wished to testify their respect for him, and their satis faction with the treaty he had concluded with Great Britain. Extracts are given in the United States papers from some of the Canada journals, which attack Lord ASHBURTON and his treaty as vehemently as they have been attacked at home, and ap parently with no more reason. The 'United Parliament of Canada was opened on tlt© ith, and an abstract of the Governor- General's speech will be found in another part of The Salt. - .The great interest of the proceedings in the Canadian Parliament is connected with the address and the mode in which parties may be formed. An opinion has been hazarded that the Governor-General will not be able to obtain a majority without making considerable altera tions both in his system and in the persons of his administration, but no light is thrown on these interesting questions by the present arrival The rage displayed by certain Ministerial journals against the Duke of RUTLAND for his sensible speech at Waltham, is extremely edify ing, for it shows that the parties most interested in agricultural pursuits will not join with them in denouncing the Tariff and the Corn-law Act. Towards the close of the session a cry was got up that the Tory party had been betrayed and the agricultural interest ruined, and hopes were confidently expressed that it would be responded to by every farmer and landlord throughout the kingdom. The Waltham meeting, however, has dissipated all these expectations. The homely phrase, " who's afraid ?" so appropriately used by his Grace, is urged as a proof of ignorance. This venerable Tory is treated with as little re spect as the lowest " clodhopper;" and even the friendly expressions of respect and esteem which passed between him and the American Minister are turned into ridicule. This shows very bad taste, and little consistency in those parties who profess such a love for peace, and occasionally describe in such glowing colours the horrors of war. But rage is a very bad counsellor, and often induces men to speak and to write what they would be ashamed of in their sober moments. After all, what did his Grace say that could give offence to any hu man being? It amounts to this, that he had no fear for the agricultural interest, that it was his anxious wish that the poor should have food in abundance, and that the farmers must bestir themselves, in order to compete with foreigners. These are nearly the words used by the Marquis of TWEEDDALE, when he told the English land lords that the repeal of the Corn-laws was a mere bugbear, and that with skill and energy they might set foreigners at defiance. We beat them in manufactures, in trade and commerce, in tOrtning and governing colonies, and it is sin gdar that we should be afraid to meet them on equal te.rms in one art, for which this country h s' long been famous. All the restrictions claimed by the pretended friends of the farmer ar,e'"lY injurious as they encourage sluggishness, cheek ithprovetnents, and make hint trust, not to himself, but to the aid and protection of others. EXperience, however, is better than theory, and we may therefore cite an instance in point. The tenants of a noble family in Scotland were con spicuous for being behind all their neighbours in improvements, while they paid only about half the rent paid by others. Thirty years ago, the nsitS were raised. Some of the old-fashi oned hands that would not march with the age, were turned out, and both landlord and tenant have greatly profited by the change. This is a fact that can be easily ascertained. Amongst other anecdotes of the day, a gentleman, who had been fortunate enough to procure one of the beds at Taymouth Castle, told, with great glee, that be had been awakened on the morning after the Queen's arrival bv a waiting-amid shaking him vio lently in bed, and calling out, " Jenny, Jenny, will you no rise? I say, Jenny, ye lazy jaud , the Queen - wants her water at half-past six!" Wishing to pro long the jok e f or some time, the gentleman pretended to be fist asleep; but 'as the jolting became rather seriou3 in the end, he at length grumbled a reply. On hearing a gruff voice the astonished abigail ran off exclaiming, " 0, mur d er, there ' s men here., '—Glas kow Argus..—(There are one or two trifling inaccu racies in this joke. Tin gruff voice was that of the sweetest vocalist in Scotland, Mr. Nilson ; and, in stead of the objurgatory terms employed, the servant was most respectful in her lauguage—the fact being, that :Ur. Wilson occupied the bed of the most impor tant female domestic in the castle, who had given it up for his convenience.--Caledonian Mercury.] We understand that the excursions on the Croydon Railway to Ancirley Gardens, have not proved so at tractive as was exp ected. —Railway Tim es .

The British and North American Mail Steam-ship Caledonia, Captain Lott, entered the Mersey this morning at five o'clock, bringing New York papers to the 17th, Boston to the 18th, and Halifax to the 20th. The Caledonia has encountered a constant suc- cession of easterly winds. She brings 35 passengers. The wife of the President of the United States died on the 12th inst., after a long and severe illness, which has been the source of deep and depressing anxiety to him ever since his accession to poser. She came to Washington in a state of ill-health sufficient to have warranted her being left at her residence at Williams burg, even though a painful sepal atioa, with but few opportunities of meeting, would have been the con sequence. Since she came to the white noise she has never seen corcJany at all, being for the most part confined to her chamber. Mrs. Tyler was the daughter of Robert Christian, of the county of New Kent, Virginia, who enjoyed, during a long life, the confidence and esteem of all who knew him, and served for many years as a Mem ber of the Virginia Legislature. She was born on the 13th day of November, 1790—was married to the President on the 29th March, 1813—became a mem ber of the Protestant Episcopal Church, in which she was baptised in early infancy—and died in the 52d year of her age. Her end was quiet and tranquil, like one falling from weariness into profound dumber, exhibiting a mind at rest with itself, and a heart of virtue. Indeed, in life, she was, in every respect, as has been most truly remarked in the Intellicencer— " A wife—a mother and a Christian—loving and con fiding to her husband—gentle and affectionate to her children—kind and charitable to the needy and the afflicted." In death she sleeps the sleep of the righteous and the beloved of Heaven. _ The President, after paying the last sad rites to her remains, will, we learn, pass a few days with his daughter, Mrs. Semple, in the county of New Kent, and then take up his abode at the Rip-Raps for the purpose of seclusion and repose. Mr. Roberts, the collector of the port of Philadel phia, is removed, and Mr. Thomas S. Smith, of that city, is appointed his successor. (From the New Orleans Picayune of the 4th inst.) TEXAS.—The steam-ship Merchant arrived here yesterday from Galveston. She has Texas papers to the 29th ult. The news is not important. The crops are good—the times are dull—the war cry is for the present hushed, and money is confoundedly scarce. Col. M'Leod, with the remainder of the Santa Fe prisoners, arrived at Galveston on Sunday, the 21st ult., having been out ten days from Vera Cruz. Fourteen of the men died with the black vomit at Vera Cruz, after their liberation, three (none of them American) joined the Mexican service, and Capt. Ilotliday died on the passage, leaving, besides those who had previously died or been liberated, and some who design going direct to the United States, the number of 183. . It is thought by many in Texas, that through the joint interposition of the agents of the United States and British Governments, a treaty of peace may be agreed on between Texas and Mexico, and that a period may be thus put to the further effusion of blood. WHEAT CROP. —A good deal of wheat in Western New York has been threshed and brought to market; and we are warranted in saying that the crop, though abundant and in general in good order, has not equalled the early expectations and calculation by one quar ter, in many cases by one-third less. Much of the wheat, likewise, which has been brought to Ro chester, has evidently been damaged by being cut in too green a state, and afterward not sufficiently ripened or dried. This is a very serious matter. Early cut wheat will undoubtedly make more and sweeter flour than that which stands too long, and will yield more weight of crop, but this pre-supposes that it is not cut too early, and in the next place, that it is most thoroughly made in the sheaf or stook. In some places the wheat suffered from rust, and in refer ence to the inquiry respecting the use of rusted straw, one of the best farmers in the State expresses his ex perience that cattle will not eat much of it, and his conviction that what they do eat will injure them. — New Genesee Farmer for September.

LA FAYETTE BANK.—The receiver of this institu tion has given notice that all debts due by it will be paid on presentment at his office, 34, Wall-street, on and after the 19th inst. CANADA. The United Parliament commenced its session at Kingston on Thursday, the 7th instant. In an extra from the office of the Kingston Chronicle, we have re ceived a copy of Sir Charles Bagot's speech to the two Houses. _ _ _ _ It commences with an allusion to the death of Lord Sydenham ; then refers briefly to the birth of a Prince in England, and to the attempt upon the life of the Queen, and then proceeds as follows : " I rejoice that I am able to acquaint you that a treaty between Great Britain and the United States has been signed on the part of her Majesty, and since ratified by the Federal Senate, by which the im portant questions affecting this province and the United States have been adjusted. From this happy settlement, the ratification of which by her Majesty I hope soon to be able to announce to you, I augur the most favourable consequences to the province in the maintenance of peace, the restoration of confidence, and the devotion of the undivided energies of its inha bitants to the internal advancement and the develop ment of the vast resources of the country. " These have been among her Majesty's chief objects in the negotiation of this treaty ; and lam commanded by the Queen to state to you that no wish is nearer to her Majesty's heart than that, under her rule and protection of her Crown, all her faithful subjects in Canada may rest in undisturbed peace.; may feel themselves to be one people with their fellow-subjects in the British islands, and may increase in wealth, prosperity, and contentment, founded on the possession and rational enjoyment of a free and essentially Bri tish Constitution. " Gentlemen of the house of Assembly, " I have the unfeigned satisfaction of informing you that her Majesty's Government have redeemed in the fullest manner the munificent promises made by their predecessors to guarantee the loan contemplated by this province ; and I shall lay before you without delay the Act of the Imperial Parliament which gives effect to their intention. " I have been in correspondence with her Majesty's Government upon the mode in which the assistance thus 0 - en can be riade most available to the province, and I shall have occasion to make an important com munication to you upon this subject. In the mean time I have adopted every means at my comma n d t o obviate the inconveniences of delay, and to advance the public works ; and I hope before the expiration of the present season to be able to extend them consider ably. I have directed that full information as to the operations of the past year shall be laid before you. " It has been found impracticable to carry into ef fect in England the arrangement proposed last year for the assistance of deserving emigrants. In redemp tion, however, of the pledge made upon this subject , her Majesty's Government have obtained from Par liament a grant of money in aid of destitute emigrants upon their arrival in this country. "It will meanwhile be satisfactory to you to know, that although the number of emigrants who have from the mother country or through arrived thene recigdhibeutil. ?nog States, during the present season, has been much larger than during the corresponding period of last year, no serious destitution has pre vailed among them, which would render it necessary for me to apply to you to devise mea.is for their relief; and I have every reason to hope that there are the best prospects of their ultimate success and prosperity. " The condition of the public reverue is highly satisfactory. The patriotic measures adopted by the Legislature during the last session, to provide by means of increased taxes upon imports for restoring the credit of the province, and meeting the charge about to be created for the completion and extension of the public works, have been eminently successful. "The tariff of the Imperial Parliament for the Bri tish possessions in North America, framed as it is in a most generous spirit as regards this province, will promote essentially its financial and commercial inte rests. The provisions bably call for corresponding , alterations in the provin cial scale of d u ti es • and I shall at an early period require your advice and assistance in making the revenue laws of thi s province consistent in themselves, and harmonious with the enactments of the Imperial Parliament. - - " Her Majesty's Government _have evinced a most lib er al disposition in the consideration of the duties on agricultural produce, in connexion with the trade of Canada ; and I am led to hope that an arrangement may be ma in de an to ne e r xt a r ik d e t:Le van m ta ar g k e e o t u f s or to e t a h n i a s d p i r a o n v p in r c o ; ' es upon vari ous t op i cs o f l oca l a d n u (T c l e t h h e e il s i p m a e o e t c h h e t r h c e o n u t n o t u r c y h . interest—the establishment of district councils, edu cation and the reorganisation of the militia; and coo- THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING.

POET.—There exists in a little street of the town of , a little shop kept by a little man, who shaves all day long the little tradesmen of the place. This man is, perhaps, the first poet of the age. He is the celebrated Jasmin, who has written, in the Gascon patois, poems of the first order. An excursion he has just made to Paris has procured him innumerable triumphs. All the salons fought to have him. The verses he recites, though composed in an idiom almost unknown in Paris, produce always a deep sensation. The talent with which he explains in usual language the subject he intends relating in the Gascon—the grace and expression of his delivery, facilitate wonderfully the ear in catching the sense of his words; he makes his audience often roar with laughter, and frequently he moves them to tears. His elegy, entitled, " L'Aveugle de Saint Dizier," has been translated into several languages. Jasmin, to whom the King has sent as a token of his gracious favour, a magnificent watch and chain, has just re ceived from his Majesty of the Netherlands the cross of Chevalier of the Couronne de Chene. An inn keeper in Ireland was once knighted by a drunken Viceroy, but we never heard of a barber being so lucky before.—Letter from Paris. THE STADE DIIES.—The German papers state the new Stade duties are to be, instead of 1-16th, the most that Hanover had any right by treaty to demand, 1-sth; but English produce is only t o pay 1-Bth. It is clear that King Ernest has neither the right nor the power to levy the ten-thousandth part of these duties, and every sixpence levied in consequence of this treaty on English goods, or English subjects, will be taken from them by their own Government to give to the King of Hanover. Instead of protecting the English against all such exactions, our Government actually lends its power to another State to plunder thew. " THE MISER'S DAUGHTER" COMPLETE.

London : Cunningham and Mortimer, Adelaide-street, West Strand. t7:4 Teb p ,s *ettritti;Sittion SUN OFFICE Three o'Cloch. We have given in another part of the paper a portion of the lengthened correspondence carried on fur nearly two months between Lord ASH BURTON and Mr. 'WEBSTER, . relative to the Boundary treaty, arid are glad :o find that it confirms the favourable opinion generally enter tained of the candour and ability with which his Lordship conducted the negotiations. The first letter is from Lord A.SHBURTON, dated Washing ton June 13, and contains a general view of the long•continued controversy with an intimation that he was authorised' to treat for a conven tional line. The American Minister in reply states that he is duly authrised to prooceed to the consideration of all the disputed points, and respectfully invites his Lordship to state gene rally his view of the case,.and the expectation of his Government. The manner in which this in vitation is accepted displays much frankness, and differs widely from that which is too often wit nessed in those long, formal, and some times obscure State papers called protocols. " I trust," says the Noble Lord, " that you will have perceived in the course of my hitherto informal communications to you, that I approach my duties generally without any of those devices and manoeuvres which are supposed to be the useful tools of ordinary diplomacy. I have no other mode of acting than an open, plain dealing, and I therefore disregard willingly all the disad vantage of complying with the invitation given me to be the first to speak." He then goes o;a to state his proposals, to which Mr. WEBSTER replies; and, though there is a mate rial difference between them at first, by argu ment and conciliatory negotiation they come to an understanding on all the points contained in the treaty. Much blame is attached by certain writers in this country W Lord ASHBURTON for the facility with which he yielded to the claims of the Americans, but the correspondence affords no ground for such imputation. His Lordship's language is firm, but respectful. He rejects many of the points claimed by Mr. WEBSTER, and distinctly states that he has no power to give them up. We refer our readers, however, to the correspondence itself, which, though of great length, will amply repay perusal. In one state ment of his Lordship every friend of peace will cordially concur. " The territory in question," he says, "is that portion of it at least which is likely to come to Great Britain by an amicable settlement, as worthless for any pur poses of habitation as probably any tract of equal size on the habitable globe ;" and he then adds that but for the necessity of a line of communi cation between the British North American provinces, we should long ago have given up the controversy. Yet for this miserable strip of land, containing a few acres of bog or snow, as well described by a French writer, certain parties by the most inflammatory language are doing all in their power to involve the two coun tries in a bloody war. This is. not the feeling of the country in general, and least of all the feel ing of men who have any title to the character of Christians. In the last Number of the Sporting Review occur some remarkS on prize-fighting, which are curious and worthy of notice, as showing the marked change that has lately taken place in the public mind, as respects this blackguard exhi ment of a prize-fight wo ul d have crea ted quite exhi bition. Twenty years ag o the bare announce a stir and a sensation, not only in the sporting circles, but generally among the people. For days —aye, and weeks—before hand, the Papers would have been full of the subject; sketches and anecdotes of the combatants—particulars of their trainers and their mode of training, as also of their b a lt c v e h r s , a b o i t n t i t o e l n d e e s i s s ,a&ne4 an emphasis that. —would have been given must now appear quite ridiculous; and when the day appointed for the fight arrived, special re porters would have been despatched by all the leading journals to the scene of action; thousands and thousands of all classes from all parts of the country would have assembled there, as at some grand national jubilee; every hotel, inn, and private lodging, for miles ro un d wou ld h ave b een crammed to su focation ; immense sums of money would have been won and lost ; and the day would have been characteristically wound up by drinking, rioting, gambling, and all sorts of gross animal dissipation. Such would have been the scene presented twenty years ago on the advent of that Carnival of blacklegs and pick pockets—a prize-fight; such "the excitement it would have created among a large mass of the conununity ! But now, how changed the cha racter of the age—how infinitely improved and elevated the tone of the public mind No longer is there a WYNDHAM among us, to rise in the House of-Commons, and, amid the cheers of that assembly, formally give his sanction to the " manly English sport of boXing." The Ring is at a discount. Its advocates are ashamed pub licly to avow their predilection. In a word, the whole thing is dead, without hope of resur rection. For this salutary change in the public mind, we are indebted to the general spread of education; and more particularly to the establish ment of Mechanics' Institutes, which have wrought quite a magical trans f orma tion in the intellect and feelings of the working classes , b y revealing to them sources of pure and elevated enjoyment of which they had previously no con ception; and showing them, not only that Know ledge is Power, but that it is the surest, the safest, the most ennobling and lasting of all Power —a guide as well as a beacon, to instruct them what to pursue, as well as what to avoid— a friend to assist them in their progress through life ; to cheer them by its healing and kindly counsels in the hour of adversity; to fit them to enjoy prosperity in a thankful and modest spirit; to give a proper direction to their ambition ; and make them useful and exemplary in all the social relations of life. We hope the d diffuseddistant when stno n g education the pe people, willp as be as universallydayisthe air n o t t h f e :: breathe. Not a Whig education —nor a Tory one—nor yet a Chartist one—but an education based on a which shall altogether eschew p artisanshi p; and, looking to the welfare of the wh ole communit y , compr e h e nsive, cath olic p rin c i ple; shall adopt as its leading aim and object, the " greatest Happiness of the greatest Number." An educated people can ne v er be otherwise than a happy and prosperous one, for they must necessarily have a direct controlling influence on the Legislature, which consequently can never pass laws but such as are in accordance with the practical experience, and are approved by the common sense, of a thoughtful and in structed nation. The intelligence from l‘ladrid is destitute of interest. The following is the state of the Funds - on the 22d ult. : —Th e Three pe r C ents. were done at 21 7-16 at 60 days ; and the Five p er Cents. at 20 f or cash, an d 261 9-10 at 60 days.

We have received the Paris Papers of Friday and Saturday. Accounts from the provinces de scribe the deplorable ravages occasioned through out Frauce by the late rains , which p roduced in various districts inundations unequalled in ex tent since the year 1812. In several of the wine districts (those of the Rhone particularly) the vintage had been nearly destroyed. The Courrier de la Gironde publishes a letter from a Bordeaux merchant, complaining that by the new American tariff the duties on French brandies are raised to 250 per cent., and on French wines to 100 per cent., which amounts to an actual prohibition, and will deprive the two departments of the Gironde and the Charente Interieure of the sale of 400,000 hectolitres of wine annually, whilst the highest duty imposed by the same tariff on British manufactures is but 40 per cent. MiniAers were successively returning to Paris. Marshal SOULT reached that capital from Eu on Thursday, M. DUCHATEL was expected in a couple of days, and M. GUIZOT had removed from his summer residence at Auteuil to the Hotel of Foreign Affairs. Although the KING was not to take up his residence at Paris before the 14th of November., there nevertheless arrived on Thurs day and Friday, at the Palace of the Tuilleries' a number of waggons laden with boxes and bag ' gage, which were deposited in the pavilions of Fiore and Marsan, where active preparations were making for the reception of the Royal Family. The Duchess of ORLEANS is to preserve the apartments she occupied previous to the death of her lamented husband. The following are the only extracts of interest : AVIGNON, SEPT. 29.—The waters began to fall yesterday and continue to do so to-day. The lower town will be soon clear, but there will be great losses. Several considerable dikes have given way. The Rhone has returned to its bed.—itioniteur, Oct. 1. Lord Lowther, the Postmaster- General, has been in Paris, and had a personal conference with M. Conte, who holds the same office here, and has absolutely convinced him of the advantages of the new system. It is time for our Government, which talks so much of promoting the interests of commerce, to give us on the point in question some better proofs than words, and made up articles in the journals, of the reality of its professions.—La France. The King and Queen of Prussia arrived at Neuf chatel on the 24th inst., and were received with great pomp. The houses were ornamented with garlands of flowers and green branches, and hung -with flags of various colours. A triumphal arch was erected at the part of the town by which their Majesties were expected to arrive, and a grand decoration was constructed near the Hotel-de-Ville. The Royal carriages arrived at the triumphal arch at six in the evening, and the King and Queen were re ceived by General de Pfuel, Baron Chambrier, the Burgomaster Robert, and a numerous body of the citizens. An address was here presented to the King, to which he gave a most gracious answer. The cor tege then proceeded through the town, saluted by the incessant acclamations of the crowd, which filled the streets. On its arrival at the Chateau, the higher functionaries collected in the court, and welcomed their Majesties with loud cries of Vive le Roi I Vive la Rein ! The guard of honour, composed of a com pany of Carabineers and infantry, presented arms, and the drums beat a salute as the King alighted from his carriage.—Galignani. We learn from Atunich that Prince Milosch Obre nowitch, who had come to that city with the inten tion of remaining some time, suddenly left it for Vienna on the 23d inst., on the receipt of a letter from the Austrian capital.

The Money Market remains in the same inactive state as to business, and Consols are firm at 92 k 93 for Money, and 93 for the Account ; New Three-and a-Half per Cents., 1004 101 ; India Stock, 249 250 ; Exchequer Bills, Old, 49 51 • New, 48 50 prem. The Foreign Market has exhibited rather more ani mation, and the prices of Securities are a shade bet ter ; Dutch Two-and-a- Half per Cents., 52 ; Belgian, 103 1031 ; and Danish, 824 ex-dividend. The quotations for Mexican are a trifle higher, being 32* for Money, and 33 for the Account. Some considerable transactions have taken place in Brighton Railway Shares, but with this exception the market has been 'flat. The price, particularly New Shares, opened at an advance of ss. upon that of Saturday, and have since reached 35i 354, wnich is quite 1/. higher than on Tuesday. The South Western have been sold at 574 ; South Eastern, 23* 234 ; the Scrip, 124 ; and Blackwall, 64. Spanish Bonds are again the only ones which are quoted, the Five per Cents. 154, and the Three per Cents. 20k, which is lower. An evening paper on Saturday reversed two figures in the returns of the circulation, thereby making it appear that an increase of 536,0001. had taken place in the issues of the Joint-stock banks in England, instead of a decrease of 3,3411. Two of our Morning Contemporaries have copied them, and all three have made the expansion the subject of remark, but the statement in the second edition of The Sun was correct. The amount of notes issued by the English joint• stock banks, 17th September, was 2,819,7491., on the 20th August, 2,823,000/. ; and the whole circubition of the kingdom was, on the 17th ult., less by 514,326/., in 7 stead of being greater by 28,0001., as has been mis represented. The information in the mercantile letters received by the Caledonia is extremely meagre. Affairs are however represented as gradually improving, with increased confidence, and every prospect of a revival in trade. The vessel has brought over several orders for goods, which will of course give an activity to our manufacturers. It is expected that the tariff in its operation will be found not to be so prohi bitory as had been represented; but now that a set tlement of that question has been brought about, commerce will.be placed upon a more steady basis.

ARREST OF CHARTISTS.—Besides George Julian Harney, who carries on a small bookselling business in Hartshead, Sheffield, whose arrest we mentioned on Saturday, we learn from a Manchester paper that Richard Ottley, another Chartist, who is a tea-dealer in South-street, Sheffield, had been arrested and carried to Manchester. Both these prisoners, like the others, are charged with a seditious conspiracy. ASHFORD.—SOLITII-EASTERN RAILWAY.— The rail way works in this neighbourhood are proceeding right merrilie, and expectations are consider:llly raised that the whole line to Ashford will be (lone by November. It is said the contractors are to have a refresher should this be the case. The omnibuses, coaches, &c., are full each day, and the post-horses will doubtless be happy when the Ashford terminus is reached. All is bustling activity.—Dover Chronicle.

She left Boston on the 17th, and Halifax on the 19th ult., and has had very rough weather, with head winds almost all the voyage ; she has 35 passen gers. The steamer Acadia arrived at Halifax on the 16th, in 12i days, and the Margaret steamer from this port in 14-i- days. The Great Western had not reached New York when the last accounts left that city. The American papers contain the correspon dence between Lord Ashburton and Mr. Webster, re- lative to the late treaty. The Duke and Duchess of Leuchtenberg arrived at Vienna on the 22d ult. They were expected to re main a fortnight. A private letter from Madrid, published in the Memorial Bordelais, says that the Spanish Govern ment will shortly publish a decree of amnesty, hut it will contain many exceptions. The Italian Opera season opened on Saturday evening at Paris. The report of the death of M. Eugene Bore, the Eastern traveller, turns out to be unfounded. He arrived at Constantinople on the 20th August. Let ters dated the 6th ult. have been received from him. The railroad from Berlin to Frankfort• on-the- Oder will, according to a letter from the Prussiari capital, be opened on the 15th of this month, which will be the King's birthday. The Leipsic Gazette states that the newly-elected Sovereign, Alexander Petrowitch, who is said to be 40 years of age, had made his public entry into Bel grade, and taken the oath of fidelity to the Constitution. On Thursday the commanding officers of the regi ments in Paris gave a farewell dinner to his Royal Highness the Duke d'Aumale, previous to his depar ture for Algeria. A Paris letter in the Augsburgh Gazette, states that the Duke of Orleans had executed, shortly before his death, some excellent strategic maps of 'the two sides of the Rhine and of the States on its banks, as well as of all the projected railroads in Germany. These maps have, it is said, by the King's orders, been collected together at the Etat-Major General. Workmen are employed at present in deepenitig the bed of the river Morgon, which runs through the town of Villefranche, in order to prevent those inundations which have from time to time caused such devastations. A few days since the workmen in digging discovered several coins of the time of the Roman emperors, a number of abbatial medals, some small silver crucifixes, &c. A letter from Rome states that the Papal police are on the alert to seize copies of an Italian book printed in London, and distributed profusely throughout Italy, containing infamous calumnies upon the Church and the Papal Government. The Amsterdam Gazette publishes the Imperial ukase of the Emperor of Russia authorising the raising of a loan bearing interest at 4 per cent., to meet the expenditure required for the execution of the railroad between St. Petersbugh and Moscow. A Royal ordonnance, dated the 25th ult., appoints M. de Cambry, late Master of the Mint at Rouen, to succeed M. Collot in that office at Paris. MONEY-TRADE-COMMERCE.

They started at twenty minutes before four on Thursday afternoon both vessels und er storm trysail, small jib, anti reefed square sai l, the Corsair taking the lead, and keeping it t° the Start point; ht this period the vessels were placed in most difficult situations. The Talismaul in the height of the gale, running, the Corsair, came up close astern of her, the waves running so high that the men on board the Corsair wer e fearful the Talisman would run them down,. as she came up on the top of the sea, they I Y I I in the hollow. They all rushed astern, bailed her to alter her course, which she did' Had they come in contact, 'tis more than PI bable both would have sunk and every s° " perished, there being no sail in sight. The Cot' sairjibbi ng carried away the jaws oilier gaff, whe n he the Talisman passed, and kept the lead to t Eddystone, which she passed at three A.M. °ll Friday ; in that time having gained nearly cleVe° minutes on the Corsair. Both rounded the EdtlYi stone under reefed trysail, reefed foresail, storm jib. At five A.M. the two vessels wer e - close to each other. The weather moderating about nine o'clock, both vessels set larger Jibs' and the Corsair a mizen ; the Talisman alwaYs, increasine , sail first, being the most power ful vessel, all the pilots of the Corsair being fearfu l of their mast, which was a weak stick. After rounding the Start point the Corsair took th, lead; the Talisman then down with her try#" and set her mainsail with two reels in it, an soon after passed the Corsair. The Corsair tbel l set her mainsail similarly reefed; the .Talisto" put out a larger jib, an d k ept t h e lead till off Sidmouth, when th e C orsa i r went under th e Talisman's stern and s p o k e b e r(about seven At twelve o'clock th e y r oun ded Portland, b ot vessels together; at three A.m. on Saturd a y the : : Corsair was half a mile dead in the wind ahead of the Talisman, and eventually lost sight of h e r .

Five A.M. saw the Talisnia.in• half a mile to leeward, under a press of sai l , which compelled the Corsair to shake the ree ls out, in doing which she carried away the boon oaring, which brought the Talisman close 'IP aside her lee. The damage being repaired, th e whole sail was set, when she went ahead again , and beat by four minutes. The Talisman 111 7 sailed by Captain John Long, assisted by Robertcll Newman, John Denton, Mathew Fletcher , " J. Willis, and twenty seamen. Mr. Jos. Wh ite ' the builder, was also on board. The Corsair was sailed by Captain Daniel Brown, assisted Daniel and Edward Corke (the well-known 0144 hi of the Water Witch in her match round .th e Eddystone with the Galatea), and t w enty-tr' . .."' men.
