The scheme of Lord Harris for increasing the sup plies of labour provides for the importation of 1,000 coolies at 151. per head during the years 1855 to 1862, and for the return passage's of the same number from 1863 to 1870 ; and thc,calatlations explanatory of the scheme showed a W. /truce 411870 in favour of the Government of 19,000/. oilkhese financial operations. The project was oppo-Wds-by Mr. Rennie and by the Attorney-General, after which the Council passed to the order of the day. , On the motion of Mr. Rennie, it was resolved that, in addition to 1,000 Indian immigrants to di im ported into the colony in 185 4 , 300 Chinesel uld also be introduced. The yellow fever was n 'en tirely extinct in Trinidad. r 4 The West Indies generally were more healthy, and the yellow fever was apparently quitting" the westward islands. At St. Thomas the fever had assumed a much milder type. From British Guiana we have advices to the 10th of July. Since the last packet a continuance of rainy weather had been experienced. The most promising hopes were therefore entertained of the next year's crop. The general trade of the colony was by no means in a healthy state. Country pro visions were scarce and dear and salt fish in limrted. supply. There is no political news, the Court of Policy having adjourned. The refusal of the home authorities to allow the Immigration Bill, which had been passed by the Combined Court, had caused dissatisfaction to- the colonists, and was expected to be embarassing to the local Government. The barque Apolline had arrived from Calcutta with 192 coolies. Two fires had taken place upon the Anna Catherina and Thomas estates on the coast. Surinam papers give the following returns of shipments of produce from that colony during the first quarter of the present year "To Holland-5,315,9831b. sugar, 552,8071 b. coffee, 117,6751 b. cotton, 1,9451 b. arrowroot, and 800 pieces of assorted timber.

The following testimonial is another proof of the great effi cacy of this medicine: — "157, New Bond-street, London, October 12, 1850. " Sir,—ln acquainting you with the great benefit which have ex perienced by taking BLAIR'S GOUT and REILIIMATIC PILLS, I feel that I am but performing a duty to that portion of the public who may be similarly affected. "About twenty years since I was first attacked by rheumatic gout in my hands and feet. I had previously been subjected to every va riety of climate, having served in Canada in the 19th Dragoons, and in Spain, under Sir John Moore, in the 18th Hussars. I always pro cured the best medical aid, without obtaining any essential relief, and my sufferings can be appreciated only by those who know some thing of this disease. " It was during one of those paroxysms, between twelve and thir teen years ago, that I was recommended to try BLAIR'S PILLS. I lost no time in procuring a box, and before I had taken that quantity the pain had entirely ceased, and in a few days I was in perfect health. " From that moment, whenever I feel any symptoms of the dis ease approaching, I have instant recourse to this medicine, which to me is so valuable, that were it not that the days of magic have ceased, I should certainly attribute the relief I obtain to that cause. Moreover, I rejoice to say that my health has not in any degree suf fered, but on the contrary I believe the tendency of BLAIR'S PILLS is towards its Improvement. "I have recommended the Pills to many friends, and the result has always been of the most gratifying character. " I am, Sir, yours respectfully, " GARRET FOSTER GILL. The Barbadoes journals state that the weather had been very seasonable, and that frequent showers had fallen. The country looked beautifully ar een, and the young cane crops were promising. ''Little had, however, been done in the way of planting provisions, and in many districts labour was scarce —the peasantry staying away from the estates, as the wet season begins, to cultivate their own several spots of land. The quantity of rain for the past month was about five inches. - The quantity of produce shipped is as follows :- 31,074 hhds. of sugar, 270 packages of arrowroot, 13 packages of ginger, 46 bales of cotton, 443 gourds of aloes. The first quarter's revenue under the New Trade Act amounted to a sum much in excess of the Customs duties received during the same quarter in former years. Several fires had occurred in the rural districts. The Barbadoes Globe of the 11th of July con tains the following "A good deal of excitement has prevailed in this and the neighbouring colonies by the intelligence which has reached us by the present and preceding packets as to the intentions of the Government with regard to the withdrawal of troops from the west Indies, and the reduction of the Ordnance and Commissariat estab lishments in many of the islands. The extent to which they are to be carried has not been communi cated in any authentic shape, but from what has trans pired we fear that although Barbadoes will not be a mat sufferer, some of the islands will be sorely put about in their present distressed' circumstances, to pro vide the necessary establishments for their own protec tion, and will feel the loss of the expenditure to which the proposed arrangements will lead." The St. Vincent's Boyd Gazette, of June 23, gives the subjoined on the agricultural state of that colony : " Rain has fallen daily since our last ; this retards the making of sugar, and will, we fear, injure the present crop, however it may benefit the coming one. We have been assured by experienced planters that the crop on the ground exceeds that of last year, but the difficulty of taking it off will reduce the quantity. Shipping will be wanted shortly. At present there are but two ships in harbour—the Glenelg and the Louisa—and they are nearly loaded. The Hornby is expected." The Antigua papers state that in that island the yellow fever was very destructive. Among the deaths recorded by this mail is that of Wm. Byam, son of the Hon. Wm. Byam, President of the Council of the island. The total number of white persons seized with the disease up to the last date was 124, of whom 29 died, while 33 coloured per sons had been seized, of whom 4 died, showing a total of 157 cases and 33 deaths. The Governor left on the 13th for St. Kitts, his health being still much impaired. In Grenada occasional showers had fallen, but the weather was excessively warm. The crop would be finally taken off in a fortnight. At Carriacou the weather had not been very favourable for agriculture. The cane cultivation still looked green, but there was no growth. The successions of bad seasons had induced the settlers to cultivate cotton more extensively. The island was healthy. Her Majesty's ship Imaum was at Port Royal, Jamaica ; the Buzzard and Bermuda cruizing on the coast of Cuba for the suppression of the slave trade ; the Espiegle in the Spanish Main ; the Megeera transferring troops from Jamaica, Hondu ras, and the Bahamas ; the Daring was in the Gulf of Mexico. We regret to say that intelligence has been received by this mail of the upsetting of one of the Daring's boats on the bar of Tampico, when two officers and five men were drowned. The Ca lypso had sailed from Barbadoes for the coast of Venezuela. Her departure is thus announced in the Barbadoes Globe of the 11th of July : " Her Majesty's ship Calypso left Carlisle Bay on Thursday for La Guayra, to give to the British residents at Caraccas the protection they may require in the pre sent disturbed state of Venezula. This step is taken in consequence, we believe, of a requisition which was ad dressed by the acting Consul - Gene ral to the senior naval officer on this station. When the Calypso has performed the service which may be required of her at Carccas, she proceeds to Halifax for the hurricane season.' Gulf of Mexico. The Royal mail steamer Parana, with the out ward mails of the 2d of Cl reached St. Thomar a the e e hm r a ma p a sis a , s t o s a t g h e e at 3 p.m. on the 17th ; the Clyde, which left South ampton on the 25th of June, arrived at the same about oGf to leave for and the Spanish Main '; the Conway on the Jamaica and Honduras station ; the Dee was to leave St. Thomas on the 18th of July for New York, where she was to be eoppered and lengthened by the bow ; the Derwent was at Barbadoes, the Eagle and Esk islandwT h as e Atovopon7 thecTeae s d l a w 2 t : with t . at Jamaica, and the Medway at St. Thomas.

SECRETARY —Henry Foreman, Esq. Offices-62, Moorgate-street. Her Majesty in Council having granted a Royal Charter of Incsis notation, the Directors feel ft a duty promptly to bring into effective operation the means which they believe best calculated to in.ure the most direct and expeditious communication with Australia, and thereby to satisfy a requirement of great and growing urgency. The route propose& viz.—the direct line connecting England with Australia, and crossing the Isthmus of Panama, may be considered as divided into three stages—the Atlantic passage, the transit across the Isthmus, and the Pacific passage —to Sydney and Melbourne n coaling t ernately, coalin at Otallette or other convenient station.e il the first it is unnecessary to dwell; of the sec ond, all difficulties are in process of speedy removal by the lino of railway now approaching its coint•letioo,* with attendant accommo d a tion of suitable hotels at both extremes ; and the third , favoured as it is with the smoothest seas, with moderate winds, a pleasant temperature, ant the absence Of adverse currents, may indisputably be described as presenting the most unoejectionable navigation in the world. The directors, therefore, availing themselves of the long practical experience of Capes. A. S. Hamond, R. N ~ and J. Cochrane Ilcseason, 11. N.—who,.—who, for several years, have held command of steam-ships en the Pacific, New Zealand, and Australian stations, and of whose published opinions the soundness has been fully confirmed by recent rssults, adopt this course, as combining the essential ad vantages of speed, cf comfort, of economy, of safety, reserving, how ever, the power to avail themselves of any more desirable line of transit across any other sectisn of Central America, which time may ip° al i tt!elevelop. f , speed and regularity with which paddle-wheel steamers•—on the Cunard and Collins' lines—have performed their passages across turbulent seas of the .Norta Atlantic, having established a con tion that this mode of propulsion is best calculated for long voy 4iess at high velocity—it is proposed to employ paddle - wheel eaniers of about 3,000 tons, with commensurate engine power— ng all well established Improvements -in reference to ma 'ainery, uniformity of size, proportions, and cabin accommodation. The vesssis will proceed at stated periods from Milford Haven to I .,' t ainsvall (Navy Bay), oil the Atlantic side of the Isthmus; from t ierce passengers and cargo will be conveyed by railway to Panama, ill) the Pacific side, and there re embarked for Australia, accomplish tthe whole distance, to or irom, in about fifty-five days. The Di etors, liner the most deliberate consideration, have decided that f Ilford Haven, as the port of departure promises advantages, which e 'N' other ports can supply, viz , the safest anchorage —entrance and es.lt at all times—facilities of repair—supply of most suitable coals t l and easy communication by rail with London, Manchester, and all , e Manufacturing districts. It is thought unnecessary to dwell on the great extenaion of general Laffic, wherever proper facilities of intercourse by steam have been rented ; it may, however, be briefly stated that the produce of gold ir i n ng the year 1852, in the colony of Viet oria alone, amounted to over is ' oo ooo/., with every prospect of a continuous insrease. exelu 8, se of the produce of New South Wales, which forms a large addi -1".011 to this vas t amount ; that during the months January, February, i f ! a reh. and April last, the specie transmitted across the Isthmus — Q °ll l Peru and Chill, from the western coast of Mexico, and from sf a 'lfornia—amounted to 20,410,796 dollars, exceeding 4,000,0001. t; s rll nfr ; and that the passenger traffic by the same route and for ' same period amounted to 10,568 persons, irrespective of these ttrf veyedsii s by the San Juan de Nicaragua line. It may be, moreover, e t rved that this extent of traffic, however great, affords no ade e eidea ot the vast trade which will arlse to feed this line when operation, with all the important advantages of a completed l w aY and of a systematic conduct of business. I,,:s'arne additions to this vast traffic must necessarily flow from the ,c7seasing, intercourse beta ten North America and the Australian 102 °1 M facilitated as such intercourse is by the powerful line s of I SSatriers alrealy established between the United States and the the of Panama in the North Atlantis, and between California Panama in the North Pacific. B s ,. ' he augmented line ot steamers alga employed by the Pacific "ant Navigation Company between Valparaiso and Panama must O si derably swell the stream. These great results stand in perfect s i ue pendence of a line projected which will, in all probability, at no s,setant pellod, connect California and China, and likewise of traffic ~1 _ natural result of conveyance of passengers and valuable merchan ",. diverted from OA and circuitous routes. that'he Directors derive great encouragement from the knowledge o the object; of this Company are favoured with the hieh approval ritish merchants in general.

FLOGGING IN THE ARMY.—One of those disgusting scenes which are so degrading to the British army took place on Saturday, at the Portman-street Barracks, in the presence of Colonel Angerstein and other officers belong ing to the second battalion of Grenadier Guards. From information gleaned by the reporter from one who wit nessed the revolting spectacle, it appears that a private soldier of the name of Lancaster, a fine yoting man, 20 years of age, spoke disrespectfully to one of the lance corporals, who reported him to the commanding officer. Lancaster was subsequently tried by a court-martial, and was sentenced to a term of punishment which he considered greater in proportion than the offence he had committed. He was just being removed from the court when he encountered his prosecutor, and, while labour ing under considerable excitement, Lancaster struck him a blow, and felled him to the ground. For this offence he was further sentenced to receive 50 lashes on his bare back, and, in addition, to be imprisoned in the House of Correction for four months. The first part of the sen tence was carried into effect on Saturday, in the mess kitchen of the barracks, where the halberds were fixed, and, on the unfortunate culprit being firmly tied thereto, he received the first 40 lashes from two drummers, each giving him 20. A third drummer was then called in, and administered the final dose. On being released, Lancaster called out as loud as he could, "Bravo ! I have stood it like a man." His great-coat was then thrown over his bleeding back, and he was marched off to the hospital to have his back healed.—Dispatelt.

On receipt of this intel ligence, Captain Mellersh immediately coaled from the ship . Garland, and, working all night, at daylight got under weigh, and about 71p.m. succeeded in reaching the White Dogs, at the mouth of the Min. The whole of the next day it unfortunately blew so fresh, and the weather was so thick, that communica tion with the shore was impossible. About four a.m. of the 10th, however, Captain Mellersh dispatched Mr. West, the master, in a cutter to reconnoitre, and about 3.30 p.m. he returned with the schooner Spes, and in telligence that the piratical fleet were still in Namquasi, waiting for the ransom money, winch they were advised had been dispatched to them overland. Taking the Spsc in tow, the Rattler about 5.30 p.m. proceeded onwards. Day of the 11th Ip-oke in a thick fog ; and the approach being dangerous, the Rattler's engines had to be eased until about eight a.m. The fog lifting, Single Rock was at that hour seen about a mile and a half a beam—the pirate's haven some seven miles distant. Without delay the Rattler dashed on, the fog still banging so thick over the hills that the pirate's looks out did not see her until she was right in amongst them. Then commenced a species of panic. Cutting cables, and making sail, they stood for the entrance of the harbour ; but a strong flood tide swept them inwards, and then, hoisting baskets of stink pots to their mast heads, they prepared in earnest for close action. The Rattler opened the ball with a shoe across the bows of one vessel making for the river ; whereupon the whole fleet. consisting of seven heavily armed junks, and Lorcha No. 12 , belched forth broad sides of round shot, grape, and pieces of chain about a foot long tied together. Their aim generally was too high, only a few of the guns taking effect of the Rattler's hull. Giving them two broadsides from her starboard battery, the Rattler passed up, turned, and took position stem on the tide ; then, steaming towards them, she opened fire. Upon this the pirates bore up with intent to board. Lieut. Pidcock (aftewards killed) tending the large eight-inch gun there, upon taking precise aim, sent a shell right through the pirate chief's large jun k, which, catching the magazine, caused her to blow up with all hands - the explosion having also the efriet of sinking-(vessel alongside of her. The Lorcha then dropped astern, ceased firing, and hoisted Portuguese colours at her mizen, with French at the main. The other vessels made the best of their way to the. shore, and, getting as near as possible, the crews jumped overboard and swam to the beach. There, how ever, they were met and knocked on the head by the vil lagers, who showed them no mercy, many being speared and stoned to death in the water. The Rattler's boats were then lowered, manned, and dispatched in charge of Commander D'Orville, Mr. West, and Messrs. Willcox and Elliot, mates ; possession of the rest of the fleet being effected with little or no further resistance. Up to this period casualties on our side were inconsider able ; but news was shortly afterwards brought that some of the pirates who had escaped had captured a small junk, killed the crew, and were doing their best to get up the river. Upon this Lieutenant Pidcock gave chase to the chief. It appears that he was not very long in coming up with the miscreants in two junks, one of which had been boarded, when the other dropped alongside, and some 50 who were hid in the vessel in possession rushed up from below and overt powered them. The last seen of Lieut. Pidcock alive was on his knees, with his sword through a Chinese, borne down by half a dozen spears. Two had fallen by his hand just before he dropped. George Ryder, quar termaster, and John Phillips, able seaman, both went down with him, side by side fighting desperately to the last. The rest of the cutter's crew were driven, over board, all of them bearing honourable testimony to a brave defence of their gallant though less fortunate com rades. Edward Ward, ordinary seaman, has no less than fifteen spear wounds, some very deep ones, and it is doubtful whether he will recover. The people on • shore behaved admirably, sending off sampanes to pick up our men as they were repulsed ; and by their aid the wounded men succeeded in getting back to the Rattler about half-past eight p.m. The whole of this encounter being out of sight of the steamer, the grief felt on board at the painful and unexpected result may easily be ima gined. Immediately the gig and a cutter were manned and dispatched in charge of Commander D'Orville, Mr. West, and Mr. Wilcox ; but the night was so dark, that although they pulled on until two a.m., nothing what ever of the junks could be seen. Soon after daylight, too, the pinnace was hoisted out, a gun got into her, and, manned and armed, the three boats again started in charge of Commander D'Orville, Mr. Brounsdon, purser (volunteer), and Messrs. 'Wilcox and Elliot. They returned about 7.30 p.m., having seen nothing of the pirates, but having succeeded in recovering the bodies of Lieut. Pidcock and George Ryder. To return to the captured junks. The burning one was speedily towed on shore and scuttled, and at low water no less than 170 pounds of molten silver were taken out of her, a few burnt dollars, and three bags of cash. Five junks and the lorcha were the following morning taken in tow, but it coming on to blow, one of the junks was sunk, and the lorcha had to be cast off. (for arrival at Amoy was reported in our No. 41.) Four junks, however, were taken into Fuhchow, to gether with fifty prisoners, who were all given up to the mandarins. Thus ended one of the most valuable achievements we ever remember to have seen recorded as the work of one vessel in China. The piratical fleet destroyed have been the terror of the coast for a long time ; the detestation in which the crews were held being evinced by the con duct of the people on shore. The number of guns cap tured, of all sizes, was 84, of which the pirate com modore's junk alone mounted 16—viz., two 32-pounders, two long 9-feet 18-pounders, two 18-pounder carronades, four 12-pounders, and others of various calibre. Where all appear to have done their duty it is bard to say more in praise of one than another. Commander Mellersh, we learn, fcr three successive nights never knew what sleep was, and from continual action was hardly able to stand on his feet, which had swollen so much that he was unable to go on shore to inform Mr. Acting Consul Walker of the success his promptitude in notifying him had brought about. To Mr. Wilcox (of whose gallantry as senior mate under the admiral's flag at Martaban and Rangoon, we have heard most honour able mention), Captain Mellersh has given the acting lieutenasstcy, an appointment which we have no doubt will be at once confirmed by Admiral Pellew. Com mander D'Orville, whose services with the Rattler were especially alluded to in the month of March last, bears with him from China another well-earned laurel. Of poor Lieut. Pidcock an officer writes :—" He was dreadfully wounded about the head. Poor fellow, his messmates have lost a kind-hearted friend, and the service of a clever and most zealous officer. The affair was brilliant. The loss to the Rattler was as follows : KILLED. George A. Pidcock, second lieutenant. George Rider, quartermaster. John Phillips, A.B. WOUNDED.

This insolvent was further heard on his application to be discharged, and a crowded court was attracted. Mr. Cooke opposed on the part of Miss Burdett Coutts, and the insolvent defended himself. The case again occupied the whole day. The complaint, as put on the present occasion by Mr. Cooke was, that the insolvent had in curred a debt of 1561. by fraud, in bringing an action on an absent authority, couched in doggrel verses, for 100,0001. The record was withdrawn, and he was in custody for the costs he had wantonly and fraudulently incurred. The authority was said to be contained in the following wordss : " Send to Coutts your bill, there's lots in the till— I'll give the clerk orders to do it, Then get your dischorge, your dear body enlarge, And in Stratton-street do let me view it. And, by the bye love, your affection to prove, For your long cruel incarceration, Fill a good round sum in, as I have plenty of ti n To make you a fair compensation." A. long discussion arose to-day on the judgment which had been obtained for not going to trial. The action was brought in November, 1851, and in February last judgment was obtained by not going on to trial. The insolvent alleged that it had been got by a trick, and that he was taken to prison while he had a motion to make before the Court of Queen's Bench. The insolvent asked for the possesion of certain documents in order to address the Court, and particularly for the authority on which he had drawn the draft for 100,0001. Mr. Commissioner Law declined to part with the authority, but the documents might be handed to him. The authority would be read by the officer of the Court. The insolvent proceeded to address the Court, and oc cupied some hours. He declared that he had acted bond fide in bringing the action. He complained of the perse cution he had endured, and bespattered the judges, wit nesses, and all parties. All was gone save his honour ,- and if the press remained true, he did not despair of having justice done him. He had been protected, as God Almighty was stronger than the devil, and he should be protected still, although the Commissioner might exceed his power. The insolvent continued in the same strain for a long time, making solemn asseve rations as to his motives, and declaring that he had been cruelly persecuted, having been more than five years in prison. Mr. Commissioner Law, in the course of his address, remarked that there was no evidence that Miss Burdett Coutts had ever spoken to him one word in her life. Mr. Cooke—Or had written a line to him. The insolvent continued his speech, and indulged in a great number of observations. He asked the lamed Commissioner to act like his noble relation Lord Ellen borough. He spoke for upwards of three hours, and concluded at past five o'clock. Mr. Commissioner Law said he would give his judg ment on Wednesday. Thei nsolvent went back to Whitecross-street Prison.

ARRIVAL OF THE AMERICA. LIVERPOOL, JULY 31. By the arrival.of the royal mail steamer America, Shannon, commander, we have , advifts from New York to the 19th, and from Boston to tho 20th in stant. She has brought 123 pa.ssepprs, and 528,461 dols. in specie. on freight. The America passed the , follOiving vessels :—On the 23d, the brigantine Conquest; bon*" westward, and the slip Britannia, froM•Qnehec ;-'On the 28th, at 2.10 a.m., in lat. 'Along. 37, passed the steamer Niagara, hence for Halifax and BOSton ; on the 30th,, at 9.30 a.m., passed the , steamer Glasgow,. from New York - for the Clyde ; and at 8.30 p.m., passed - the steamer Africa, hence fpr New York. The steamer Franklin, from'Havre and Cowes, arrived at New York on the 19th. The steamer Eiiropa, from-this pa*, arrived at Halifax on the 20th. "t;O7 The latest accoun. from Washington state . fresh difilculties'. had arisen with regard to the fishery question... It was believed that the nego tiations would be delayed, and that the subject would not be disposed of before the meeting of Congress. The number of deaths in New York during the week ending the 16th amounted to 564, the greatest number during the present year. President Pierce returned to Washington from the inauguration of the Crystal Palace on the 16th. Three large tobacco manufactoriesivere destroyed by fire at Richmond, Virginia on ttLe 15th, entail ing a loss of upwards of 40,0 0 0 dola;' , The first train on the new line of railroa4. between Montreal and Portland arrived latter place on the 16th, and was welcomed by a salute of 30 guns. Our advices from Havannah are to the 12th inst. The cholera was still carrying off hundreds of slaves. Its ravages were more fierce on the sugar estates of Cardenas than in other districts. One planter, Don Mariano Hernandez had lost 140 slaves by the decease ; and it was said that other planters had suffered still more severely. All news papers, English as well as foreign, were prohibited circulation in Havannah. The notorious slave- that vessel. Lady Suffolk had been captured by her Ma jesty's brig-of-war Daring. Three American sea men were arrested, and placed in the Moro, on a charge of being concerned in the slave trade. They allege that they shipped from the port of New York in the barque Jasper, which recently landed a cargo of negroes in Cuba, without knowing her destination, and that upon learning the nature of the voyage they desired to leave the vessel, but were compelled to remain by the balance of the crew, consisting of Spaniards and Portuguese. Lieutenant Smith and four seamen of the brig-of war Daring were drowned a short time since while attempting to cross the bar of Tampico in a heavy norther. Several persons had been killed and a large number seriously injured by the giving way of a temporary building on the Havannah race course. _ vv From Kingston, Jamaica, we have advices to the 27th ult. Legislative proceedings still remained in state quo. The weekly meetings of the Assembly were held on Mondays or Tuesdays, on which occa sion a quorum of seven, which is sufficient for that purpose, though not for the transaction of general business, generally adjourn the house to the net Monday or Tuesday. Mining operations were still being prosecuted with vigour. The yellow . fever was very virulent in Jamaica, notwithstanding that the weather had become delightfully cool. Port-au-Prince advices of the Ist inst. state that the country was quiet. Business was very dull. Coffee and logwood were scarce ; the former sold at 150 dols., Haytian currency, per 100 lb., and the latter at 80 dols. per 1,000 lb. Accounts from Aux Cayes of the 27th of June state that the fever still continued to rage there both on shore and among the shipping in port. We have telegraphic dispatches from the city of Mexico to the 4th, and from Vera Cruz to the Bth inst. The cholera continued to rage at Vera Cruz, and was on the increase. The black vomit was also making terrible ravages, and had frightened the physicians, who were unable to save more than 10 out of 100 patients. Cholera was also very severe at Jalapa. A decree regulating the or ganisation of the Government-Council, composed of 21 persons, had been published; also one regulating the interi?r of the national palace. Santa Anna had taken up his residence at Tucu baya, and established telegraphic communication with the capital. General Parodi had been pro moted to the grade of Brigadier-General, in consider ation of his services at the battle of Buena Vista. The Government declared the defence of Lotopingo by Col. Anastacio Lenecero against the Americans, on the 20th August, 1847, heroic. A new oath had been established, which all employees were re quired to take. One clause is to sustain the inde pendence of the nation and the integrity of her territory. The Mexican papers are filled with news as to the filibustering expedition from California into Sonora, and manifest considerable anxiety in regard to the matter. Concerning the difficulties between Mexico and the United States, the Trait d' Union says—" If war is imminent in Europe, we think it may be considered equally so, under certain circumstances, between the United States and Mexico. The violent language of the official jour nal at Washington bodes nothing good." The dishonouring of the Sloo draughts had created great distrust in Mexico, and it is said that Senor Olarte despairs of carrying out the project. The Isthmus of Tehuantepec had been declared a sepa rate territory. Minitillan was to be the capital. No alteration worthy of notice had taken place in the New York stock market. Money in good demand, at 6to 7 per cent. Exchange on London, log to 1091 ; Paris, sf. 121 c. to Of. 131 c. ; Am sterdam, 41 to 41l ; Frankfort, 41 to 41i ; Bre men, 791 to 791. Cotton without alteration, hold ers and buyers both waiting the Europa's advices. The new crop is represented as being fully two to three weeks later than last year, and the plant very small. The advices per Franklin caused great ex citement in the breadstuff market, and prices ad vanced materially. Large sales of flour had been made at an advance of 2s. to 3s. per barrel ; wheat had also advanced 3c. to 6c. per bushel, with a good demand. Indian corn firm ; southern yellow was worth 71c. per bushel ; western mixed, 68c. to 70c. ; and damaged lots, 63c. to 65c. per bushel. Provisions in fair demand, at firm prices. Rough turpentine was selling at 3 dols. 87ie., and spirits 46c. ; rosin without change. Freights to London firm, at late rates. WEST INDIA MAILS. SOUTHAVIPTON, JULY 31. The royal mail steam-ship La 'Plata; • Captain C., G. Weller, arrived here at an.46r/i;houiiiiis morn ing, bringing the usual West India and Gulf of Mexico mails, in charge of Lieutenant Chatterton, R.N., Admiralty agent. Her dates are : Vera Cruz July slßarbadoes July 12 Tampico — 1 renada — 11 Havannah ...... 10 Carriacou - 11 Nassau (Bahama) 7,St. Vincent — 11 Puerto Cabello.... 9 St. Lucia.. - 13 Santa Martha June 22 Martinique - 13 Greytown Carthagena — 11 Dominique Chagres — 9 Antigua Jamaica — 11 Montserrat Jacmel — 'l3 Nevis Porto Rico — I.6iSt. Kitts Berbice Demerara Tobago lO St. Thomas — Trinidad — 10 La Plata also brings mails from the west coast of South America, received at Panama by the Pacific Steam Navigation Company's ship Bogota, which" vessel had on freight specie value $140,404 for transmission to England, and dates from Valpa• raise. 15th, Coquimbo 16th, Copiapo 17th, Cobija, 19th, Iquique 19th, Arica 20th, Islay 21st, Pisco 23d, Callao 26th, and Payta 29th of June ; Pa nama, July 7. Among the 73 passenger brought by La Plata are Commander Reid, R.N., from Jamaica ; Cap tain Woolley, of the Royal Mail Steam Company's ship Parana, invalided from St. Thomas. This gen tleman took out the mails from Southampton of the 2d of July in the Parana, and returns to Eng land after a voyage to the West Indies. and back of only 281 days. Also Captain Studdart, 16th Regi ment, from Jamaica ; Mr. Byhan, President of Antigua ; and Commander Rollé, from the Pacific, with despatches for the French Government. The freight list comprises specie from Vera Cruz, value 73,591 dols. ; from Tampico, 15,684 dols. ; and for account of the Mexican dividends, 15,655 dols. ; from the Pacific ports, 173,065 dols. ; from California, 262, 097d015. ; from Carthagena, 38,749 dols. ; from Jamaica, 2,500 dols. ; and from other parts of the West Indies, 15,305 dols. ; the total value being 701,576 dols., or say 140,3161. ster ling, of which 613,500 dols. is in silver and 88,076 dols. in gold. The cargo consist of plata pina, value 2,255/. sterling, 241 serons cochineal, six serons indigo, l 0 serons jalap, 212 serous bark, 66 cases cigars, 156 bales tobacco, 15 casks coffee, 36 bales sarsaparilla, seven live turtle, three cases tortoiseshell, six cases saccades, 12 packages copper ore, and 80 packages sundries. During the stay at St. Thomas La Plata lost four men by yellow fever, and eight other were left at the hospital. On the voyage home several cases of bilious fever occurred, which were successfully treated. The sixth engineer died of yellow fever two days after leaving St. Thomas. Mr. Scott, the surgeon of the ship, had a very severe attack of the fever, and was in a precarious state at the date of departure, but has since recoved. His medical duties on board on the homeward passage were per formed by Dr. Baillie, of Demerara, a passenger. ti The ciz et ibi ship, oyu .g immediatelyPlata leftho ne Inspectors arr t ival Thomas w a s o fo g n r e d anted ay a pf Quarantinetr e a r - . h the stipulated time, she has arrived at Southamp ton nearly 36 hours before due, and merchants in London and the manufacturing districts will have one clear day allowed them for replying to their correspondence by the outward mails of the 2d inst. by the Orinoco. A whole month is thus saved in regard to return mails for the Gulf of Mexico, while a fortnight is economised in the course of post between this country and the West India Islands, the Pacific, and Spanish Main. From the Gulf of Mexico there is no news of im portance. An attempt of General Santa Anna to incorporate the militia and military into one force h ad been resistedby the military authorities at Tam pico. The United States' steamer Vixen was lying off Tampico Bar. Strenuous efforts to place the army in a more efficient state were being made, and several foreign officers had joined the Mexican 14 13 14 14 service, Captain Hall, commanding the Pacific Steam Navigation Company's ship Bogota, reports to us, under date Panama, 3d of July, the commence ment of hostilities between Bolivia and Peru, and that when his ship called off Cobija on the 19th of June it was found that the Peruvians had taken possession of the town several days previously. The French brig of war Obligado was lying there, together with the Peruvian war steamer Rimac and brig Guise. The Peruvian admiral's secretary in formed Captain Hall that the town was not under blockade, and that imports were allowed as for merly. From Jamaica our usual files of journals, as on the occasion of the arrival of the Orinoco, have entirel3r miscarried, apparently through the neglect of the per sons on board the intercolonial packets at St. Tho mas to transfer them. We are informed that the yellow fever had considerably abated, with little sickness in the island. Rain was much wanted. A testimonial signed by most of the merchants of Kingston had been presented to Commander Reid, R.N., late in command of the Imaum, on his leav ing for England, as an acknowledgment of the valuable services rendered by him while on the Ja maica station. Commander Reid had been re cently instrumental in getting off the American mail steamer Ohio when she ran ashore. The po litical situation was unchanged. A new associa tion, called the Kingston Commercial Rooms, and Chamber of Commerce, had been formed. Mining operations were active, and progressing favourably. Among the deaths by yellow fever, was Lieuten ant Gill, Royal Marines. This packet brings further accounts of the pro gress of the insurrectionary movements in Vene zuela. The latest advices state that the city of Maturin had been taken from the insurgents, or, rather, that General Sotillo, with 700 cavalry, and Colonel Antonio, Thomaso Rojas, with a division of infantry, having made their appearance in the neighbourhood of Maturin, the insurgents had no alternative but to retire before so overwhelming a force. This news was confirmed by the arrival at Trinidad of Senor Nunez, a member of the Provi sional Government, who reported that when he left Maturin the insurgents in that place had given up all hope of a successful resistance. General Mona gas, with 3,000 men, was marching on Cumana, to which point the forces under General Sotillo and Colonel Rojas were also ultimately destined. The inhabitants of Cumana, who first originated the revolution, had so thoroughly compromised them selves that they had no alternative but to fight it out or lose all their property. A sanguinary struggle was therefore immediately inevitable. Lord Harris, the Governor of Trinidad, had con sidered it desirable, under the present aspect of affairs at La Guyara, which town was in possession , of the insurgents, who hourly expected an attack from the Government authorities, to send a vessel, specially hired for the purpose (the Pigwidgeon), with the view of affording to all British subjects residing in La Guyara, or its environs a safe pas sage to Trinidad till the violence of the revolu tionary storm should have blown over. The Pig widgeon arrived at Port of Spain on the sth of July with a number of British residents, chiefly women, and reported that everything was quiet at La Guyara, the town being still in possession of the insurgents. General Monagas had reached Barcelona with 3,000 men, and was expecting fur ther reinforcements prior to advancing upon Cu- mana. sip The Demerara Royal Gazette thus alludes tothe insurrectionary movements in Venezuela :--- " The family of the Monagas, who overthrow the most patriotic of Venezuelian Republicans, Paez, have, it seems, ever since that revolution in which this was accomplished, maintained possession of the Government —one brother on retiring nominating another. The coun try has consequently been thepatrimony of a family. The allegations against the members of the Monagas family are of the most aggravated description. They are re presented collectively as being robbers of the public with n V p e a n rt eizeuselias purse, and the auth ors of every sort of corru p tion.
