ARRIVAL OF THE CALEDONIA STEAM-SHIP. The British and North American Royal Mail Steam ship, Caledonia, arrived here yesterday at noon, after a very excellent passage. She left Boston on the 6th, and Halifax on the Bth, and has brought 41 passengers. The Niagara steam-ship reached New York on the 2d inst., and the Europa was met between Boston and Hali fax by the Caledonia. The Herman had not reached New York. There was a fair enquiry for sterling exchange for re mittance by the steamer, and drawers were firm at previous rates. The best bills were quoted at 1084 to 109. The Niagara's outward advices had a most favourable effect on all state stocks, though, both politically and commercially, they were looked upon as unfavourable to peace and advan tageous to business. The money market was abundantly supplied. All was prosperous and promising, and the season, though backward, had been propitious to the cereal crops, which promised great abundance.. The water at New . Orleans was stationary, and the river falling. There was a fair prospect of stopping the great crevasse in a few days. At Mobile, on the 27th ultimo, four stores were des troyed by fire. The loss was 60,000 dollars A lengthy account from Corpus Christi, ment of Indian depredations between gives a state es and the Rio ide. They hid entered the town of the 18th ultimo, and stolen a number of quantities of goods. Colonel Kinney, wi and a number of Mexicans, were killec then crossed the river in the town of Camargo, and killed San Patr horses and large [th another man, I. The Indians several persons. They also drove off the horses and cattle. Captain Adams, of the U. S. navy, had arrived at Galveston, and left for the Sabina Post. A letter from Galveston, of the 24th ultimo, states that the cholera in Victoria bad carried off 34 members of the New York Fremont's California Association. A few cases lint] nlen nrozirrati t Wo.-Aincrtnn rntintv_ lArst7ng 1 . 1 ivpr. :ermina The ship Princeton, Rusell, arrived at New York on the 2nd instant, from Liverpool, with nearly four hundred passengers on board. John Hall, steward, John Hen derson, seaman, and nineteen steerage passengers, died o❑ the passage, nearly all of the cholera. All well on board when she arrived. The advices from Newfoundland, dated the 22nd ult., state that the whole island is surrounded by ice, rendering it unapproachable for vessels. The steamer, with the bishop on board, could not reach it. The passengers were obliged to disembark, and walk fifty miles on the ice before they could reach the land. A large number of the inhabitants have petitioned to government, soliciting the necessary means to emigrate, on account of the poverty now existing on the island. CAPTURE OF A SLAVER.—Captain Taylor, of the bark Mary Irwine, arrived at Philadelphia from Sierra Leone, and reported that Her Majesty's steamer Teazer had sent a brig, with five hundred slaves on board, into port, on the last day of April. The accounts from California continue favourable,' and the return of the first two Pacific steamers to Panama, from San Francisco, gives promises that regular inter course may now be counted upon. An officer of the navy sent with despatches from the commander of the fleet in the bay of San Francisco, reached Washington in 44 days. In Canada the legislature has been adjourned—in the absence of the Governor from Montreal—br the com mander of the forces, Gen Rowan, who succeeds to the post on the death of Gen. Sir Edward d'Urban. The fermentation of opinion seems to continue in that. colony.

At Galveston and ether places numbers had died, and many were so sick that they were returning home. The latest advices from the Sacramento city are dated March 28th. The spring has opened, and the rainy season is over, and everybody is getting ready to begin gold hunt ing. New parties are constantly arriving. Gold washing has been carried on during the winter with but partial success On the '` Middle Fork," an average of two ounces of old a day for each man has been gathered. On the Yerba river, a large_ party_ of Oregonians have made the rivers to fall. There is some talk of diverting the rivers from their beds in order to get at the gold on the bottom. _A place called Stanislaus, appears to be the favourite haunt for the gold hunters." At Sacramento city the men are healthy, but the scurvy has broken out at some of the diggings. _ The mania for making cities and speculating inliouse lots, equals that experienced in the West in 1837-38. A millwright has made a diving bell, with which he expects to pick up gold in deep water. The writer says 'e, and the advanceu )on San Fran- cisco prices is but proportionate with the the times. Lumber is with the greatest difficulty obtained, although the Culloma Saw Mill is running incessantly ; 80 cents per foot is not balked at in many instances—we should marvel not to see it at one dollar. Horses are worth from 200 to 5300 each (worth did we say ! gross libel upon horse flesh.) Oxen bring S - 200 per yoke. Freight from this place to the dry diggings is S - 30 per hundred. Flour sells at S3O. Beef on the hook, $45, scarce ; and dried beef, 575 per cwt., &c., &c. Board at this place, exclu elusive of lodging, is 820 ;per week. It would be well were one of those boarding-house vessels advertised in the United states to arrive. We would undertake to ensure her owners a fortune " up Feather river," as the saying goes. Certainly, at the rate proposed, such an enterprise would be flatteringly encouraged. A piece of gold has been found at Stanislaus river, by Mr. Webber, of Stockton, which weighs seventy-eight ounces, the value of which is 51,284. Mr. It. A. Parker, formerly of Boston, son of David Parker, Esq., has had a new warehouse burnt down, which he had leased the day before at '2,600 per annum. Mr. Geary, the new post master from the United Srates, had arrived and entered upon his duties. Meetings have been held at Monterey and other places, to choose delegates to a convention to form a territorial constitution. The Crescent City, which would bring to New York the first accounts of the news brought by the Oregon California from San Francisco, was due about th. instant, and would bring Chagres dates to the sth or 6th June. A letter from San Francisco says—" The people here are about all natives of the United States, and never were seen individuals of such singular (originals) caprices In the Custom-house they charge you a real for every line of written document—bills of ' , ;ch you present there.

MENAI STRAITS, SATURDAY EVENING The great operation of floating this stupendous struc ture, looked forward to with so much interest by the scientific world, is now definitively fixed for Tuesday, at the most favourable phase of tide and wind, either early in the morning, or at half-past five o'clock in the evening. The calculations of the engineers engaged in the transac tion rather lean to the latter conclusion, although the movement is altogether dependent on the state of wind and weather. Extraordinary preparations are being made for the spectacle, and thousands are expected to be present at the launch of this great product of the engineering genius of the age. At Bangor, just by, there is • of accommodation to be had, at a premium. On Monday or 'ruest.,,, who it is said will be present at the launch, _ Plas Newydd, the seat of the Marquis of Anglesey, who entertains a select circle of visitors. Lord Vivian, Hon. 0.

To guide the tube into its place with the greatest possible precision three large hawsers will be laid down the stream, one end of them being made fast to the towers between which the tube is intended to rest, and the others to strong fixed points on the two shores. To " coax" the monster more conveniently to his final resting place, a multitude of smaller ropes will be made use of, each capstan being worked by fifty men. The most difficult part of the ope ration will be when the tube shall have just reached the resting-place towers, where it has to be deposited on pro jecting shelves, and when the tide becomes stationary, before turning, for fifteen minutes. f about four )e drazged. is - ill 1 The entire length of the stupendous feet from end to end, consisting of four lar :truo.ture is 1,841 sections, originally proposed ns, the plan 75 per cent curiosities is an ear of corn from the Sierra Nevada, 9.000 feet above the sea.

SEruous AFFRAY.—On the 21st of April, at Santa Catharina, a small sea-port on the island of the same name, some distance south of Rio, a serious riot took place. Eight American vessels, with about 700 passengers, on their way to California, touched there, and a number went on shore and committed some disorders, when the natives armed themselves. as did the Americans. A fight then occurred, in which one American was killed And four wounded, as well as about the same number of natives. The president ordered out the police, infantry, &c., and after a lade display of further hostilities, the affair terminated. THE WEATHER AND THE FARMERS IN AMERICA.— We judge from observation that, at least throughout the Midland States, the proportion of rainy and cloudy weather in the month just closed has seldom been t quailed in any preceding May. For the most part, the month has been so chilly as to render fires essential to comfort. Vegetation is necessarily so backward on this Ist day of Jnne, 1849, the apple and other fruit-trees throughout the larger portion of our own state have not yet shaken off their blossoms, and even so far down as the valley of the Mohawk many of them appear to be just in full bloom. There has been no parallel to this since 1836, even if then. One consequence of this untoward weather is an extraordinary backwardness of the out-door work of the season. Northern Ohio and North-Western Pensyl vania ought to be in advance of Central New York and New England, yet not half of the land which the farmers intended to plant has ever been ploughed yet. The incle mency of the weather and the saturation of the earth have combined to forbid ploughing until there is now great dan ger that the spring crops cannot be put in at all to any thing Like the extent required. We fear the breadth of Indian corn, potatoes, &c., planted this year, will fall . . . very far short of an average of the last ten years, while wheat and rye were sown throughout the Northern States to but a moderate extent last fall, owing to a like inclemency in October and November. Much of the western portion of this state is to-day under water, and cannot be fitted for planting for at least a week hence.— New York Tribune, June sth. MARYLAND CROPS.—The Eastern Star says :—" The fly and worm are injuring the wheat crop to a consider able extent in this county. We have, however, seen some and well headed." The Centrevill ` From me up of the in all quarters of the county, complaints c jury to the growing wheat from the fly.' ST. Louis, JUNE 2, 1849.-.—Mr. Gilmore, of St. Jo sephs, has returned from the Plains: He went out 140 miles with the Californian emigrants, but the cholera raged to such an alarming extent that he was obliged to return. He says that not less than 200 of those who have left St. Josephs have died since their departure from that place. On his return he met 1,125 wagons on their way to Cali fornia. Much dissatisfaction and quarrelling prevailed among them. The ravages of the c Indians on the frontier is very grent ,olera among the The report of Indian outrages in Texas is confirmed. The savages were of the Comanche tribe, perhaps the most powerful and warlike on the Continent, and long addicted to setting at defiance the people and troops of Mexico. t They have never before ventured upon attack ing citizens of the United States. Their present foray extended through the lower part of the Rio Grande val ley and was accompanied by the usual slaughter of the in habitants. Orders have been issued from Washington to dispatch a strong force of heavy cavalry to teach the Ca tnanches a less ferocious behaviour. LATER FROM lIAYTI.—The barque Panchita, Captain Taylor, left Mayaguez on the 16th May. Capt. Taylor announces that the crops on the island would fall at least one-third short of the average return, owing to the severe drought during the spring season. When thePanchita left, there were not more than two or three cargoes to be pro cured for this year in the vicinit , other parts of the island scarcely any a all. For the whole of May, until he left, Capt. T. states that it had rained continually, and had rendered the roads so bad that no carting could be done, and vessels were in consequence detained for cargoes. On the 16th, a lot of prime sugar was sold at 3 dirs. 75c., this being about all in the market. MILK FARMS OF LANCASHIRE (From a " Report on the State of Agriculture in Lancashire," On the milk farms - situate in the vicinity of the towns and villages, the cattle feed in the pastures in summer in the usual way, and in the winter are fed with hay, a few Turnips are not extensively used for IT 1k cows, Liverpool, and are not generally considerec luction o milk and butter nomical food for tee p Jourhood of Freston, Wigan, Blackburn, &C., the grass land, excepting the marshes, is of a second-rate quality.

The cows are well fed and well attended, and, on account of the nutritious food, the manure produced is rich in fertalizing ingredients, and the land is kept in good condition, and in many places is increasing in fertility. The farmers, though not realizing large incomes, are making a steady profit, and appear in districts. The value of the gross produce of a cow, when milk is at the average price of 10d. per gallon, is from £2O to £3O. [* Since the opening of the East Lancashire and Wigan Railways, the price is considerably reduced.—Ed. L. S.] Dr.J. F.

We fear this is too good to be true ; but, with our best wishes at the back of it, we give it to our readers as we received it. The past week has been a busy one; the sales of Cotton are again large; the prices of iron are firmer; and gene rally speaking a healthy feeling is observable throughout, added to which the intelligence received to-day by the Caledonia is favourable In th Colonial market a good demand prevails for Sugar. 200 hhds. Barbadoes and 50 hhds. Jamaica were sold to-day at full prices, the extreme quotations being Co . ffee continues to be inquired after, and stiffer prices asked. There is also a better feeling for Tea ; the late low prices have attracted attention, and some sales were effected on Saturday on speculation. The increase in the amount of bullion in this country has given rise to much speculation. Being at the present time so abundant that bankers will not give more than 2to 2 per cent., the general impression seems to be that it must before long be invested to a considerable extent in produce, and that in all probability much higher prices may presently result. Hitherto we have not received much gold direct from California; our imports of om all parts et tne world—Russia, China, and ica; but there is no doubt the weight of the diggings has had much to do with its propul- hitherwaid By the steamer Caledonia, the receipts of cotton still heavy, being estimated at 37,000 bales, against game week last year ; but in the New heavy as for th York papers it is s stated ; and that in correcting a mistake in the previous stock of cotton in Savannah, they had added the increase to the week's receipts, but to what extent is not explained, thus making them appear considerably larger than war ranted by fact. This at an earlier period of the season have been of little moment, but at the present e, as in the event of 37.000 that the re balei being the a much lar preriously anticipated mi iglit be expected data before us is not coneinsive ei main in a state of uncertainty until the arrival of the next steamer. No change, however, took place in the market here to-day subsequent to the arrival of the Caledonia, and 7,000 bales were disposed of (2,000 on speculation), the market remaining firm. On Saturday the sales amounted to fully 9000 bales, about 4000 of which were on speculation, the export sales being only trivial.
