The following is the text of the Imperial Armen
relative to the conclusion of the asks of Egypt, of
which Ismail AM Bey Is the beater from the Sub-
lime Porte to Abbas Pasha. The &man beats date

1268 (July, 1852) :

In consequence of the Sultan's well-known 'venial to
capital punishment, political crimes punishable by dual
under the Ottoman law will in future be commuted, and
the culprit will be condemned to hard labour for 10 or 15
years, the Sultan reserving to himself the right of in-
miming or diminishing this punishment by an imperial
decree.

THE UNITED STATES
(A telegraphic summary of the following news ap-
peared in our impassion of yesterday.)
Yesterday morning the Hermann arrived at Cowes
on her way to Bremen. She left New York on the
14th. The following extracts from the latest New
York papers supply all the items of information pos-
sessed of any interest respecting the firheries dim-
Pute.
The steam frigate Mississippi, Commodore Perry, arrived
at St. John, on Saturday last, from Butport. The Cosrierr
of Saturday says, that the Mississippi was expected to ar-
rive on that afternoon, and adds the following information :
Captain Adams, who is attached to the Mississippi, came up
in the steams: Admiral on Thursday afternoon, for the
=of taking arrangements about a pilot, and
heir einsected with the fishery question.
Clryffils Mem hes had interviews with members of the
government, and in company with the
Consul at this port visited several of our
"Sees yesterday, where be received all the
possible relative to the recent seizure of JIM
iresesla. We have no doubt that when the NEMO.
bee faYna all the particulars of the eases in Destine, his
I that there is not the slightest reason whatever
elowleint against the British government, as it does net
sneer to be their intention to adopt these stringent mita-
wpm unless the fishing vessels are actually found breaking
the law within three miles of the shore. We understand
the Mississippi will proceed on a short crake up the Ba of
Fundy, and then round to Halifax, where the
will probably have an interview with the British admiral,
after which she will proceed to New York, so es to arrive
hem by the let of next month. We feel confident that all
the protection the commodore can afford American fisher-
men will be to miens them to keep within the strict letter
lof the Fishery Convention, otherwise they must stand the
consequences themselves. The Mississippi had not left fit.
John on Monday morning. Commodore Perry would
doubtless meet Viest-Admiral Seymour at Halifax, where
he had arrived in the ship of-war Cumberland, bringing
thither the new Governor of Nova Scotia, Sir Gaspard le
Merchant.—Boston Advertiser, Aug. 11.
The Gloucester T.legrapA of August 11 contains the
following information from the fishing grounds :—There
have been two or three arrivals from the Bay of fit. Law-
rence, and we gather the following information respecting
affairs in that quarter :—Captain 'tosses, of the schooner
C. and N. Rogers, informs us that he was in the Bay of
Chaleur, wcere he was boarded by an officer from the
steam-ship Devastation, and ordered out of the bay. It
was Sunday, and there were about twenty vessels in com-
pany—some of them had made a harbour for the purpose
of passing the Sabbath at anchor, as many of the fisher-
s* are in the habit of doing, but they were all ordered
fte pt under weigh and proceed out of the bay lime-
' dlaiWy. The officer who boarded the C. and N. Rogers
rather insulting to the crew. The first he said upon
bearding their vessel, was that they had no business in
that plan. They were, at that time, about four or five miles
distant from the shore. The papers were called for, and
the reason asked why there was no clearance among them.
After the officer had looked at them a minute, be crumpled
them in his hand and threw them upon the deck, saying to
Capt. Roger, "There's your papers. We also learn from
Captain Rogers that the Clew of an eastern schooner was
taking in water at one of the harbours in the bay, when a
cutter came along and ordered them off in 15 minutes,
not allowing them sufficient time to obtain their water.
One of the Gloucester vessels went into Fort Hood for
a harbour for the night. A cutter was there, and the
officers gave the crew permission to remain ; but
the people on shore made so much disturbance about
It, that the captain of the cutter was obliged to
order the vessel to get under weigh in the night ; and
other Gloucester vessels were served in the same way.
This is on the Cape Breton shore, and shows the feeling of
the people of that place. The people at the Gut and at
Ma* Edward Island are more friendly to the Americans.
It tree termed at Eastport that an American vessel, while
ngrismof ken a earn, was find into, and the man at
the bike bed several fingers shot off. The name of the
vowel wee unksown. The St. John papers received here
unite in demumeing the course pursued by the B • • h Mi-
nister, Crampton, in ordering Admiral Seymour to suspend
further captures of American fishing vessels. For so doing
the urge his speedy meal.
The New Brinteteieker has received private advices from
and, that the Portuguese government had made appli-
cationto the British government for leave to cure fish in
' Newfoundland, and in return offer to abolish the duty at
present imposed on British fish in their market.
On the 12th there was a debate in the senate on
dm fisheries question, and two or three members
hoeing delivered their opinions, an adjournment took
piece. The Washington correspondent of the New
York Herald saya
:
The debate in the senate, on the 12th, was very learned
and very patriotic; bet if it was Intended as bearing upon
the documents sent by the President upon the fishery
question, it was somewhat wide of the nark. There is not
on word in the dormant' in mosaics going to show that
Great Britain has, at this time, set up any claim to the
waters inside the headlands. Mr. Webster's Franklin
lion certainly makes that assertion • but the
resident has not communicated that proclamation to
the senate, nor recognised Ma any way. Some days ago I
state d that I had reason to believe, that so far from the
British government intending tonsetain the forced construe-
ton of the treaty alluded to by Mr. Webster, it had re-
fused to do so, notwithetandiag the urgent solieitatiem, eff
the colonial authorities; and that Admiral Seymour's orders
were to assist in miles all ferate fishing vessels found
within a aurae league ot the east, sod to prevent the
armed vessels of the osiesies hem maidsg any seisnriss out-
side of that line. This lailmmadee hes shoe tow osedrm• d
by an authority whisk hypes se room ter deed in my
mind. It La very prehatile She !reddest will be able, fa a
few days, to commorsisells dome hots to the senate, and this
proves that Mr. Welshes prodometien, which has created
all the szeitenemt. erluisated Is NB main niespprehearee

Bwittaa•
The name, t
Our Wernhortee conespeadoet states that the breach
between Meows. Fillmore sad Webster has been cemented.
Whether this be so or not, it is very. certain that the Presi-
dent cannot afford to less the samosa of his secretary in
the present crisis. The fishery affair, which is malty as-
sessing a very ominous shape, and the guano difficulty with
Pere, are matters that require ell the diplomacy of which
Mr. Webster is master, to brine then to an amicable ad-
justment. Both branches of Congress seen to be rather
mind at the recant proceedings of Great Britain—the
Meese Committee on commeree, it is said, are delaying to
report a measure for reciprocal trade, which has been
natured, and manors are freely descanting on the toner
quinces of an appeal to arms.
The Journal of Commerce publishes the following
telegraphic despatch, dated Washington, August 12
Mr. Webster :will leave this city for Massachusetts in
eight or ten days; but the rumour, again started, that he
contemplates the resignation of his office at that time is,
probably as incorrect as all the previous rumours. He bas
been, and still is, closely engaged here, not in the routine of
the department, but in diplomatic affairs.
The fishery question by no means settled, but Congress
mans to have confidence that it will be adjusted in a man-
ner consistent with our national honour and interests, if It
remain in Mr. Webster's hands.
It is rumoured here that some 15 sail of large ships have
been despatched to the precious islands of Lobos, to bring
away a portion of its inexhaustible treasure, in consequence
of the publication of Mr. Webster's letter giving hie opinion
that the islands do not belong to the government of Peru,
and that the Peruvian government have no right to impose
an export duty upon the product of the islands. They will,
probably, be nixed and confiscated by the Peruvian govern-
ment, unless, indeed, they he protected by our naval force.
The British government, it appears, sustains the right as-
sumed by the Peruvian government to regard to the Lobos
islands, though they are more than a marine league from
the Peruvian coast. Thus we have nether fishery question
on hand.
From New Orleans we learn that dates have been
received from the City of Mexico to the :list ult.,
which state that the ltebolledos movement wan very
formidable. The disaffected, at lest accounts, were
marching against Jalapa. Their object seems to be
the separation of the State of Oriyaba from the
State of Vera Cruz. More pronunemmentos have
been issued at Mazatlan and other places, and further
troubles are reported at Tampico. The government
has invited now proposals for the construction of tho

TOlicasatepre road till the 15th of August. All
other greets and contracts for roads and canal pro-
',eta are reserved for future consideration.
A letter received at the American office from
Cuidad Bolivar, under date 11th ult., contains some
political and commercial intelligence. The elections
were going on, and created much excitement. The
Americo residents celebrated the 4th of July with
national salutes and a grand ball in the evening.
The third of the Oronoco Company's steamers was to
be launched on the lit of August. The company
had carried all opposition before it, and was likely to
prove a monster monopoly. The newly elected
Archbishop of Venezuela made his entree into Bolivia
on the 10th nit., and wee received with great
pomp. He wee elected by the present Congress,
of which he was a member, and has yet to be
confirmed by the Pepe. Should the confir-
mation be refused, the Venezuelan church
threatens to declare its independence of Rome.
The crop of coffee will not reach more than 8,000
Dena and tobacco about 15,000 baskets. More than
300,000 hides were expected to be shipped from that
port alone. Hides rule at 12c., coffee 9c., tobacco
10e. cocoa 13c., skins 28c., and indigo 75c. Upwards
of 300,000 deer skins would be shipped between the
above date and November.

The steam ships El Dorado, from Aspinwall, and
Daniel Webster, from Nicaragua, had arrived at New
Orleans, with advices from California to the 16th of
July. The news is unimportant.
The Board of Health report nine new cholera'
cases and four deaths at Rochester during the 13th.
Capt. Treat, of the brig Ellen Maria, arrived at
New York on the 13th from Demerara, reports that
at the time he left (Juno 26), a fearful mortality was
raging among the shipping in the harbour. Dates,
to the 18th July, received previously, make no men-
tion of the fact.

In reference to the New York Crystal Palace, the
If herald nye :
Under the active exertions of the association for carrying
oat this project, such progress has been made as promises
to it a much higher degree of success and utility than has
been hitherto anticipated for It. Circulars have been
directed to the representatives of foreign countries, in New
York, London, and elsewhere, requesting the cooperation
of their respective governments and nations in this under-
taking, and replies have been received by the Presi-
dent of the Association, conveying assurance of the
great interest taken in this industrial scheme, and
promising their sympathy and support. We published
in our columns, ea Tuesday, copies of some of
those replies, received from the British, Portuguese,
French, Austrian, and Bremen Consuls at New York, and
from the Turkish ambassador at London, which convey
very strong ezpressions of the favourable manner in which
the projected exhibition is regarded by their respective
governments. That from the ambassador of the Sublime
Porte assures the emaciation that the matter has met with
the high approbation of the Sultan, and that a government
steamer will be specially deputed to convey to New York
the contributions of the Ottoman empire. We may, there-
fore, indulge in the belief that the New York Crystal Palace
Fair will be creditable to the city and republic. A great
number of plans and specifications for the edifice to be
erected for the purpose in Reservoir square have been sent in
to the committee, who will select and decide upon the most
appropriate in the course of a day or two. In a few days
subsequently the contracts for the building will be entered
into, and the work commenced without delay. The fair is
to be opened in the spring of 1853.

The New Yerk stock markets were active and buoyant.
Federal and state stocks were in demand, at improved
prices. Fort ign exchange was firmer, although only mo-
derately active. Leading drawers of sterling bills had
advanced their rates to 1104 to 110 j, and no good 60.

5.134 to 6.124; Amsterdam, 401 to 41 ; Hamburgh,
364 to 364 ; Bremen, 79 to 794. Potashes were
steady. The market for breadstuffs wan generally
more buoyant. Flour was in betttr demand. Wheat
more animated. Corn buoyant. Rye firmer. In coffee
holders were offering more freely. The cotton market con
tined active, with a further upward tendency; sales for
the last three days, 8,700 bale*. Sales of Scotch pig iron.

Freights to England very dull ; to Liverpool freight bad
been offered at Bd. for flour and 2W. for grain ; to London
flour had been taken at Is. 6d. and grain 4ld. in bulk.
Wool continued in active demand. The market for dry
goods was in a healthy state, both British and continental
manufactures being in good demand.
