The accounts from the manufacturing districts represent that during the past week a more cheer ful tone has prevailed in most departments of business, the fineness of the weather, with the im proved harvest prospects, having caused increased activity. At Leeds the dealings in woollen cloths have been to an average extent, and at Bradford and Huddersfield piece goods have been in more request. Business at Manchester, however, has enntinued dull, but at Leicester, Hinckley, and Nottingham, the hosiery trade has been more active. In the various hardware districts symptoms of improvement have been apparent in several de partments. The demand for discounts on commercial account continues extremely quiet, and as the supplies of money are superabundant the trading classes can -low obtain accommodation in the open market on Much lower terms than those required by the Bank of England. The best qualities of home and foreign paper, for instance, are now negotiable at 41,, and in special cases at 41 per cent., and it is therefore pre sumed that the discount operations of the establish ment where 4 per cent. is charged are very much reduced_ At the same time it is known that the bul lion is being rapidly augmenting by the large daily influx of Australian and other gold, and under these circumstances the authorities, it is imagined Will soon deem it expedient to offer increased facilities. About £40,000 in gold was sent into the Bank of England on Saturday. The steam©r Euxine, which leaves to-morrow, will take £15,000 in gold for Alexandria, and :£10,113 and £38,400 in silver for Bombay. A call of £3 per share has been made by the directors of the Cape Tewn Railway and Dock Company, payable on or before the 21st inst. Continued activity prevailed in the Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday, and prices tended upwards. The sales amounted to 20,000 bales. Business in the Market for English Securities has been conducted on a limited scale, but quotations have been tolerably well maintained, owing to the continued fineness of the weather and the easiness of money. Consols are 91; 92 for money, and 921 for account. The New Threes and the Reduced are trrn at 91; 921; Bank Stock has advanced to 235 ; Exchequer Bills, March, to 3s. dis. ; ditto, June, to 4s. prem. ; India Stock is steady at 220 ; and the New Loan Scrip, 103 i. Foreign Securities have shown less buoyancy, and the dealings have been restricted. Turkish 6 Per Cents. have receded to 781 72, and ditto 1858, to 69 to 691; Mexican are heavy at 218; Sardinian rril at 791, and Dutch 21 per Cents. at 64 ; Bra zilian 998, and Chilian 42 per Cents. 811. Business in the Railway Share Market has continued moderately active, but prices have shown a downward movement,. particularly as regards Brighton and Eastern Counties; the former, owing to the unfortunate accident that occurred Yesterday, have declined about 11,- to 2 per cent., While the latter, in consequence of a pressure of sales, has receded 1 to 1-1- per cent. Great Northerns, Great Westerns, Lancashire and Yorkshire, and Midlands have declined ss. ; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincoln, 10s. In the Foreign and Colonial undertakings busi ness has continued inactive, without any material Chan ge in values. Joint Stock Bank and Miscellaneous Shares have shown less firmness.

ESTRUCTIVE FIRE ON THE DUKE OF BED ,,().ll:O's PAR K F ARM —O n Th urs day morning last, about —l73 e o'clock, a large rick of hay was found to be on fire, the Produc e of more than 90 acres of park land, at Woburn, containing from between 100 and 200 tons of this year's growth, the value being estimated at from £5OO to £6OO. T he duke's powerful engine, and one from Woburn, were soon at the scene of devastation. A plentiful supply of water being near at hand, the most unceasing exertions were used to extinguish the flames, but for hours those efforts proved unavailing, destruction spreading with awful rapidity, endangering not only the stack already burning, but much other valuable property belonging to the duke. Fortunately the large rick was cut through, and by this n l,ean s the fi re was got under. The cause of t h e fi re i s a artbuted to the hay having been stacked too early after it 194 MI clawing opout4sinOus combustion. I I Closing Business Share Railways. 'Paid Price. I I Done.

The demand for new wheat in most of the country mar kets held on Saturday was in a sluggish state, and, in seve ral instances, prices were lower, say about 2s per quarter, than in the previous week. Old qualities were very dull. Most kinds of spring corn were a heavy sale, at drooping currencies. The flour trade was extremely inactive, on easier terms. Throughout the Continent the wheat trade has ruled firm, at very full prices, but in spring corn, for export, very little has been done. In America the value of produce has further advanced. Last week's arrivals of English grain up to our market were very moderate. From abroad we received 25,288 quarters of wheat, 1,183 barley, 35,172 oats, 3,390 beans, 2,329 peas, 110 tares, 8,200 linseed, 5,065 oilseeds, 60 sundry seeds, 560 sacks, and 21,318 barrels of flour. Fresh up to this morning's market the arrivals of new English wheat were small. The demand, however, for both red and white qualities ruled somewhat inactive; nevertheless the prices realised—in consequence of a de mand on French account—werii equal to those obtained on Monday last—the top quotatien. for white samples being 62s per quarter. The quality of the new wheats continues very fine. There was very little old wheat on offer, yet the trade for it was very heavy, an .d prices were nominal. We were moderately supplied with foreign wheat. In most descriptions sales progressed slowly, yet no change took place in prices, compared with this day se'nnight. In floating cargoes of grain only a moderate business was transacted at late rates. Barley was a dull sale. The quotations, however, ruled stationary. A sample of fine new malting sold at 40s per quarter. For all kinds of malt there was little demand, at lasi week's currency. Good and fine oats were in steady request, and prices were well supported. Inferior parcels changed hands slowly, but at previous rates. Very few beans were on offer, yet the demand for them ruled inactive, at barely late quotations. Peas were dull, at the late decline in their value. In flour a limited business was passing. Prices, however, were about supported. Best town-made, 51s per 280 lbs. CURRENCY PER IMPERIAL MEASURE.

We were well supplied with foreign stock to .day, and the trade generally ruled heavy at a decline of 2d per 81bs. The receipts of home-bred beasts to this morning's market were seasonably extensive, and the general quality of the supply exhibited a decided improvement when com pared with Monday last. For all breeds the trade was in a very sluggish state, and prices gave way 2d per 81bs—the top quotation for prime Scots, crosses, &c., being 45 8d per 81bs. From Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northampton shire, the arrivals amounted to about 2,100 short-horns, crosses, &c. ; from other parts of England, 800 of various breeds; from Scotland, 120 Scots and crosses ; and from Ireland, 500 oxen and heifers. There was increased supply of sheep on offer, but most breeds came to hand deficiency in weight. The mutton trade ruled heavy, and a fall of 2d per 81bs took place in prices, compared with this day so'nnight. The primest Downs realised 5s 4d per 81bs. Lambs—the supply of which was very moderate—moved off slowly at about previous rates. Really choice qualities made 6s per Blbs. For calves there was a steady demand, at a slight im provement on last Monday's currency—the top price being 4s 8d per 81bs. Pigs were in slow request, at late rates.

Last Week'N DREADFUL ACCIDENT OS THE ZEN- NINGTON TRAM WAY. Yesterday afternoon an accident, which, unfortunately, has been attended with loss of life, took place on the tram- way, near Kennington-green. In addition to the two carriages belonging to Mr. Train, another large and lumbering vehicle, looking precisely like one of those enormous travelling vans met with at country fairs, and until very lately in operation on the Bayswater road, has made its appearance on the Kennington-road, and, in order to attract passengers, a much lower rate of fares is chat ged than those of the regular carriages. As a natural consequence enormous quantities of young boys avail themselves of the cheapness of the charges, and become patrons of the cheaper vehicle. Those of them, however, who have not the means to ride in. side, gratify their desires by catching hold of the peojec tions on either side of the carriage and run by its side the whole of the distance. Just as the distance had been performed yesterday afternoon, about three o'clock, at Kennington-green, a boy, who had hold of one of the handles before the first wheel, fell ; befm'e he could recover himself another boy named John Alfred Holland, who was following close behind him, fell over him, and both went under the carriage and sustained severe injuries. But the most unfortunate was the lad Edwin Shore, who fell over the two former boys. As he fell across the rail, the whole of the hinder wheels passed over him, nearly sever ing his body in two. The screams of the persons who hap pened to be near Kennington-green were terrific, and in a minute or two an immense number of people assembled. The unfortunate lad (Shore) was picked up apparently life less, and without the slightest delay conveyed in a cab to Guy's Hospital, but very shortly after his admission he died from the extensive and dreadful injuries he had re ceived to the pelvis. The boy Holland was also taken to the hospital, but his injuries, although of a very serious nature, were not of an alarm ing description—the most severe being a fractured leg. With respect to the injuries received by the other boy nothing is at present known, as it is supposed he was enabled to recover himself and go home. For hours after the accident had occurred, thousands visited the spot where it took place to witness the sorry sight presented by the blood which had flowed from the wounds of the unfortunate lad. An inquest will be held to-morrow, when the whole of the circumstances connected with the melancholy affair will be strictly inquired into. POLICE IdTELLIGENCE.—(This Day.) THAMES. EMBEZZLEMENNT BY I SERYANT.—WiIIiam Baines, aged 23, a journeyman baker, was brought before Mr. Woolrych, charged with embezzling various sums of money he had received for, and on account of, his master, Mr. James Jones, of Rosemary lane, alias Royal Mint• street, Whitechapel. The prisoner had been in the employ of Mr. Jones for five months, at a salary of 18s. per week, and his principal duty was to take out bread to the customers, receive the money, and account for the same to his master directly after he received it. Mr. Jones, who had been an excellent master to the prisoner, and had allowed him many privileges, had lately discovered the pri soner had plundered him to a large amount, and had received money of customers and appropriated it to his own use. The prisoner had more than trebled his weekly salary by his defalcations, and he admitted to Ckandler, a police-constable No 117 H, that he had received a good deal of money from his master's customers and spent it. Three charges were selected from many others. One pay ment of £5 Bs., a second of £4 7s. 7d., and a third of £4 4s. Bd., were proved to have been made to the prisoner. He had never accounted to his master for the same, and had spent the money and other sums he had received for Mr. Jones in the indulgence of sensual gratifications. Mr. Woolrych committed the prisoner for trial. AN IRISH FEUD.—Catherine Leary, aged 31, who was called the " old woman," was brought up on remand be fore Mr. Woolrych, charged with cutting and wounding John Sullivan. The parties live in an Irish colony in Poplar, and a few nights ago there was a row between two factions there. A woman named Barry was struck on the abdomen with a stone, and seriously injured; and a woman named:Lyons was, to use her own words, " kilt and murthered" by a stone, which struck her on the jaw. After the row was nearly over, Mrs. Leary, who was in her own dwelling, No. 13, Barry's-alley, Well street, called out to Sullivan, " Here, Jack, I want you; come in here and I'll talk to you like a Dutch uncle. The man unsuspectingly entered the house, and Mrs. Leary immediately cut him him down with a chopper. He received two severe cuts on the head and contusions. He was taken to the hospital, his wounds were dressed, and he has been ever since unier medical treatment. He appeared in court with large surgical plaisters on his head. Stephen Barry confirmed the statement of Sullivan, and said he beard the complainant call out "blue murder" when he was struck. Mr. Woolrych—Blue murder. What did he mean by that ? Witness—Shure I don't know, but she was murdering him wid the chopper. An assistant to Mr. Robertson, surgeon, in Poplar, said the complainant had received two severe wounds on his head. One was an inch and a half in length, the other.an inch in length. There were also bruises on the head. Mr. Woolrych said the prisoner had nearly killed the man, and it was a wonder she had not quite done so. There was no doubt the prisoner was a violent and dan gerous woman, and the question was whether he ought not to send her for trial for unlawfully wounding. He would not do that, but fine her 405., and in default one month's imprisonment. ?HIS DAY'S SKIPPING.

'i ~ ~ s Share 5 1 t51:81 MINES. 4 5.4 i 5i 31 50 1 i I SPORTING NOTES. The York Meeting commences on Wednesday, and bids fair to outrival any of its predecessors. There are 10 races set for decision on the first day, the principal of which is the Convivial Stakes, for which 53 two-yr-olds are nomi nated, being a decrease of 18 compared with last year, when it fell to Mr. Merry's Folkestone, who was only op posed by a field of nine. On this occasion a much larger number of runners need not be anticipated, as seven are in the obituary, and no fewer than 24 of the remainder have been tried, and all " found wanting" with the exception of five--Neptunus, Lorelei, The Elector, Sir William Arm.. strong, and the Chieftain's Daughter—who have thereby become subject to a penalty of 21b each ; but as the two former take an untried allowance of 31b they will run on almost as good terms as any of their antagonists. Amongst the dark division are Mr. Robinson's North Star, Sir Chas. Monck's colt by Stockwell out of Vignette, Col. Towneley's Whitendale, and Lord Zetland's Garibaldi, the former of whom, being a son of Neville (an untried sire), is entitled to 31b allowance. As public performances are generally the best guide, I shall place my faith in Neptunus to pull me through. If Dictator has any pretensions to the St. Leger he can hardly lose the Fifth North of England Biennial Stakes. The Black Duck Stakes of 1,000 sous each will be reduced to a match between Mr. Merry and Lord Glasgow; and The Chieftain's Daughter will, no doubt, easily dispose of the Maid of Masham filly. Brown Duchess will have no difficulty in disposing of her opponents in the Yorkshire Oaks. The Three-Yr-Old Produce Stakes will be won by Starlight ; and the Juvenile Stakes will go to Sir Charles Monek. Thormanby will carry off the Burgundy, and Will-o'-the-Wisp the Bramham Park Stakes. The Chesterfield Stakes has Voltella amongst the entries but as she will be reserved for the Ebor Handicap, I shall anticipate the success of Jingling Johnny or Donner and Blitz. Thursday will be the most interesting day cf the meeting, which includes the Great Ebor Handicap, the Eglinton Stakes, and three two-yr-old races. The Great Ebor Handicap seems to have given great dissatisfaction amongst owners and trainers of horses, as out of an entry of 74, nearly the half unaccepted. Gamester stands at the head of the list with Bst 121 b, and if he was in anything like his St. Leger form, when he defeated Promised Land, he would be difficult to dispose of amongst such a moderate lot of horses as are likely to take part in the race, but he will most likely be an absentee. The next that attracts my at tention is Cape Flyaway, who now seems to be the repre sentative of the 'Whitewall stable. This son of the Flying Dutchman won the Great Newton Handicap, one mile and a-half, easily by a length, carrying 7st 111 b, and ran a dead heat with Cantine for the Craven Stakes at Epsom, one mile and a-quarter ; but at Manchester, Wildman gave him llb and a 51b beating in the Union Cup, one mile and a-quarter. As I do not believe in his staying powers over two miles, I shall look elsewhere for the winner. Moorcock and Lady Trespass and Raparee are John Osborne's lot, and whichever he trusts will be very near winning. Rising Sun, Stockade, Sir William, and Bevis are of no use to win, but I should not be surprised to see Sir William run into a place. Wildman, with 7st. 81b., would keep Cape Flyaway safe if he put in an appearance. Prologue, if all right at the post, will be very dangerous to the favourites. Voltella has come with a rush into the market within the last few days, and her clever party make few mistakes when they are in earnest. Bally Edmond, with his 141 b penalty, I have no fancy for. Gardener and Virgilius are the only others amongst the light weights worthy of notice. The public are sure to have an honest run with Lord Zetland's horse. To LADY TRESPASS, VOLTELLA, VIRGILIUS, and PROLOGUE I will leave the race, giving my preference for them in the order named. The Eglin ton Stakes will fall to Marignan or Lady Clifden. Car bineer will secure the Ebor St. Leger ; Ivanhoff the Hope ful ; and Feu de Joie the Filly Sapling Stakes. The Sixth North of England Biennial should be carried off by either Caterer or Neptune; and Hippodamia looks a gcod thing far the Prince of Wales Stakes. There is nothing in the Cup on Friday likely to lower the colours of the Wizard. A FRESH MAN. BETTING AT MANCHESTER -SATURDAY. For the Ebor Handicap' Lady Trespass was very firm, and, when all the 6's to 1 were taken that could be got, there was an offer made to take five fifties. Everything besides her fluctuated more or less ; but there was money for either Voltella, Bally Edmond, or Cape Flyaway at any advance upon the prices quoted. Virgilius receded to 12 to 1, but a very small outlay stopped him, and at the close Bto 1 was the highest (Ater. Moorcock was at 25 to 1 (taken and offered.) The same price was taken against Stockade, but from the fact of the same parties backing and laying against her, it would be difficult to predict what the t rice may be on Monday. For the St. Leger 2 to 1 would have been taken about Kettledrum. Kildonan and Lady Ripen also had their supporters. Upon the whole there was no great amount of business done.

Living quietly with his wife and family in Church lane, Horseley-heath, Wednesbury, Davis com mitted no less than 13 or 14 successful burglaries. Davis is a miner, and no doubt by the semblance of steady habits (he says he worked in one place for eight years), and from his cool and systematic mode of going about his " night work," he for a long period went on unsuspected. At length the police got no fewer than 13 clear cases against the burglar and his, wife, for the woman was charged and placed in the dockl with her husband. Out of the 13 charges of housebreaking only four were then gone into. In all these the plan pursued by this experienced thief was precisely the same. The shutters well fastened had holes bored in them, and then with a piece of wire, constructed for such purpose, the bolts were drawn back. This done, the sash fastenings were lifted, so that the windows were easily drawn up, and ingress was then afforded to the robber. The thing next done was to secure the doors at the foot of the staircase, and then Davis, lighting a candle by means of the dark lantern he brought with him, proceeded to rummage cup boards, drawers, and such other receptacles as con tained property, and packing up a selection of these they were carried off. In his exit with these he appears to have passed through the front door, which he left open. From the evidence of Inspec tor Phair, it was shown that the detection of Davis was owing to the fact that his wife had resorted to various pledge shops, where she pawned portions of the articles stolen by her husband. Mrs. Agnes Oldacre, p a wnbroker, proved the pledging of pro perty pledged by the female prisoner, and as to which the persons who had been robbed established that such was part of the plunder obtained from their dwellings. Inspector Phair produced as com plete a burglar's kit as he bad met with in the course of his many years' experience. Some of the implements were of such a clever yet simple con struction as were new even to him, Mr. Phair found a six -barrelled revolver pistol, loaded to the muzzle, as well as powde r an d shot in abundance. Inspector Phair has found a very large quantity of what is no doubt stolen property (irrespective of that produced in court) in the house of t he p risoner. The magistr a t es an d Mr. Sharp, who remained until a late hour t o h ear the charges, fully committed both 1) ivis and his wife for trial at the next Staf ford assizes. A REAL MURDER —We learn from Captain . Henry Johnston, of Washington county, Mississippi, now in our city, that on the 18th of July Mr. Preston Pickett, an influential planter of Egg Point, while riding along the levee, near the Point, was shot by some person concealed behind a cluster of cotton-wood bushes, at a distance of not more than 15 or 20 paces. The weapon used was a double-barrelled shot gun. 15 shots entered the clothes of Mr. Pickett, but four taking effect in his body. The murderer, supposing Mr. Pickett killed, stepped from his ambush, but, seeing him stand with pistol in hand, made his escape through a cornfield. Mr. Pickett returned to the hotel, which was about 300 yards distant, where ho fainted from the loss of blood consequent upon his in juries. A physician was called in, Mr. Pickett's wounds were skilfully dressed, and he was rapidly convalescing, when, on the following Wednesday night, his assassin, finding he was not mortally wounded, entered the room in the hotel where Mr. Pickett was lying, attended by his body servant, chased the boy out, and placing the muzzle of a double-barrelled gun so close to Mr. Pickett as to burn the bedclothes in its discharge, fired both barrels into the body of the wounded and prostrate man, lite rally tearing him to pieces and killing him instantly. The murderer escaped, and although the most strenuous efforts were being made to ferret out the cold-blooded as sassin, up to the time our informant left no traces had been found of the perpetrator of this inhuman deed. —Memph is oikrais ARRIVAL OF THE 73d _REGIMENT FROM _INDIA. PLYMOUTH, MONDAY MORNING. The head-quarters and staff of the 73d Regiment, from India, which landed from the Algiers at Gravesend on Saturday, and which embarked in the afternoon on board the steamship Duke of Cornwall, arrived at Milibay Pier this morning. Just after they commenced marching two horses in a stable, the door of which had been negligently left open by the ostler, rushed out, and twice broke through the ranks of the 73d. Colonel Smith, who was walking in the rear, was knocked down and injured in the head and shoulder. Private Thomas Howell received a violent and dangerous blow on the temple, and Drummer MacNally was prostrated. Howell and.MacNaily were conveyed to the Rag lan Barracks, Devonport. Two hours afterwards Colonel Smith was sufficiently recovered to do duty on parade with his arm in a sling. STATE OF FEELING IN 11UNGARz A letter from Perth, of the 18th, states that on the play-bills of the lith it was announced the Austrian national hymn would be sung on the eve of the birthday of the Emperor, and that the theatres would be illuminated. No sooner were these bills posted than they were torn down. At the National Hungarian Theatre an express order of the Governor was required in order to have the fete announced, the first bills issued having made no mention of it. The second bills contained the announcement, but the letters were so small as to be illegible. There was, however, no demonstration. The military alone were present during the sing ing of the hymn. The public did not go in till it was over. A young man who refused to take off his hat was arrested. The authorities took the greatest precautions on the occasion, and soldiers with loaded muskets stood behind the scenes. CO.RRESPOADENCE UPON FOREIGN AFFAIRS, A batch of papers relating to the action of the Foreign-office, presented to Parliament by her Ma jesty, were issued by the Parliamentary printers on Saturday last, Despatches relating to administrative and finan cial reforms in Turkey, 1858-61, occupy 116 pages. Amongst them is the following from Earl Russell to Sir H. Bulwer, dated the 4th ult.:- 4 " LORD J. RUSSELL TO SIR H. BULWER. " Foreign-office, July 4, 1861. " Sir,—The accession of a new Sultan appears to her Majesty's Government to furnish a fit occasion for the Turkish Government to make a vigorous effort to relieve the empire from that financial em barrassment to which all the enemies of the Porte have pointed as the sure and proximate cause of the fall of the Ottoman power. " Yet there are ample m eans i n T urkey for falsi fying this prediction. .The empire h as prov i nces o f great fertility, and is inhabited by races some of which have industry and a genius for trade, while others furnish hardy and obedient soldiers, the fit materials for a strong and faithful army. "Integrity, order, energy, and impartial justice, would soon redress the most flagrant evils; ec o . nomy would in a few months furnish a surplus beyond the ordinary expenditure. " Upon these means her Majesty's Government are convinced Sultan Azis ought to rely. Her Ma jesty's Government would consider they were faith less friends to the Porte if they held out any pro spect of the guarantee of a loan. It would be pour ing water into a cask with a hole in its bottom. But when order and economy with publicity of accounts shall have restored confidence to capita lists, the Sultan will find that the credit of his Government will stand as high as that of any State on the continent of Europe. Lord Hobart and Mr. Foster will, I trust, before long be able to furnish you with an authentic re port on the State of the Turkish finances. " With that report in your hands, your excel lency will be abla to give proofs to the Porte of that sincere friendship which animates her Majesty's Go vernment, and which is es far apart from flattery as it is from hostility or indifference. It is the anxious desire of her Majesty's Government to see the Otto man race combine with its ancient virtues of cou rage and fidelity the improvements and the acts which modern civilisation has spread over Europe. —I am, &c., (Signed) " J. RUSSELL." Papers relating to the annexation of Eastern Sin Domingo to Spain include the following expres sion of opinion on the part of our Foreign Minister : " LORD J. RUSSELL TO MR. EDWARDES. " Foreign-office, May 14, 1861. " It is for the Spanish Government to weigh in the balance of their judgment the advantages and inconveniences which may arise from the annexa tion of the territory of the Dominican State to the dominions of Spain, and any opinion which her Majesty's Government may form on the subject can be founded on no other consideration than a regard for what they may look upon as the real and. permanent interests of Spain. " Her Majesty's Government would, no doubt, have felt a strong and decided dissatisfaction at the proposed annexation if it had been likely to lead to the introduction of slavery into a community which is free from the taint of that pernicious institution ; but the formal and repeated declarations of Marshal O'Donnell that under no circumstances will slavery be introduced into the Dominican territory, have removed the main cause which would have led her Majesty's Government to view the proposed annexa tion with dislike and repugnance. " Her Majesty's Government certainly appre hended, when first this projected annexation was talked of, that it might, if carried into execution, involve Spain in unfriendly discussions, if not in con flict, either with France or with the United States, or with both. With regard to France, her Majesty's Government have not learnt that the French Govern ment has expressed any positive objection to the proposed arrangement, although she may not think it advantageous to Spain. It appears also, from what has been stated to you, that there is no pro bability at present of any positive resistance to the measure, either by the Northern or the Southern. Confederation of North America. But the Spanish Government should not too confidently rely on the permanent continuance of this indifference or acquiescence on the part of the North Americans ; and it is not impossible that when the civil war which is now breaking out shall have been brought to an end, an event which may happen sooner than at present appears likely, both the North and the South might combine to make the occupation of the Dominican territory by s difference between the Spain orth t A h e m c e a r i u c s a e n o f G s o e v r e i o r n n me , n , H ts e a r il m d a t j h e a s t ty o , f s Spain. that Great Britain, as a p G ovr ov e e r r n n a m tu e r n a t lly do i n c n l o i t n e d d e t n o y p and systematically ad dieted to commerce,must always view a war between any two powers as an event not only at variance with her principles, but to a certain degree injurious to her interests. But with respect to Spain, the motives of the British Government spring from far higher scources ; Great Britain and Spain have for long periods of time, and in circumstances of high moment to each, been faithful and active allies ; their alliance has been greatly useful and eminently honourable to both. It is a fundamental maxim of British policy to wish well to Spain, and earnestly to desire her welfare and prosperity; and therefore" any combination of events which might at any time involve the possi bility of Spain being engaged in a conflict which, from local circumstances and disadvantages, might be in the end seriously injurious to her.rule over her ancient possessions, would be viewed by her Majesty's Government with lively apprehension and sincere regret." We have received, also, Correspondence relating to the attack on Porto Novo by her Majesty's naval forces on the West Coast of Africa ; Corres pondence with Prince Talleyrand respecting Poland, 1831; Correspondence with the Government of Rus sia respecting the affairs of Poland, 1831.32 ; and Correspondence respecting the affairs of Modena, 1855-58. TIIE PRIVATEER " JEFFERSON DAVIS."—Th6 American barque California, Captain Hathorne, from St. Thomas's, with pi ne , pit c h, &-c., consigned to Messrs. Briggs, Lennard, and Co., has arrived at Hull. Captain Hathorne reports being boarded by the privateer brig Jef ferson Davis, in company with another privateer schooner, about 150 miles S.E. of Bermuda. The privateer hoisted the French flag of distress, in consequence of which C a pt . Hathorne at once altered his course, and bore down to her. W hen within hailing distance of the supposed French ves sel it turned out to be the Southern privateer Jefferson Davis, the commander of which requested the barque to back her topsails, as he wanted to send a letter on board. When the brig's boat came alongside, ; al place of a letter e i ng handed in, the boat's crew, eight in number, and armed to the teeth, boarded the vessel, and the commander of the party demanded the ship's p a p ers, which were imme diately placed in his hands. lie, however, as soon returned t h em , with the observation that the cargo was not of a nature to suit, and they should, therefore, let them go. Capt. Hathorne states that the commander of the Jefferson Davis more resembles a South Carolina piOriver than the captain of a vessel. The brig is an old one, of about 20 tons register, and her average speed is about four huots aJ hour. 100 20'11 100 jai stk 174 20 stock 20 20 100 100 100 stock stock stock 20 stock stock stock 254 t 61 51 7 Nf
