'I he an Mal out of the America at New York is re-
galed in our adviees juet received ; and we also
kern that the Hibernia, which sailed hence, for Bos-
ton, o the 4th inst., Lad called, as usual, at Ileitis,
and alter the necessary detention there to land hags
and ieee agree for Canada, New Brunswick. Prince
Edwaret's lelex.d, &c., had proceeded to c-mplete her
ropier.
Oa le&ing over the files received we do not per-
ceive teeny items of interest or importance. The fol-
lowing .0 am ng the more prominent.
The purer, of the President northwerav,auecunced
some to., or three weeks back, has been postponed by
as ur.f r seen tirenmstence. It was anticipated that
be er,m ri start teem the capital on the 8.11 or 9th
Met., ane take in on his route the northern and east-
ern 'tat. s. wanting ty Philadelphia. Daubte were
throws rex the announcement subergeently on m-
ama of the urfavourab'e retinas of cholera in the
diatrrn he contemplated visiting. The President hav
himself since been attack. d with the prevailing
epidemic item which, however, ce is slowly recover-
ing, and, therefore, the iltlitty is for the Ereseat
Tte re tares from those districts where cholera has
lerett d itself an more revcitrable than for some
weeks h.ek. In some places the disease is extending,
bet, in es e rest majority of instances, the dimieut!on
is very rea.d. In New York, we learned by the
t..at the deaths were above 100 daily fur the
link. y now average tot more than 60 per
r-. 1 the rime features are noticeable in the re-

pert ft..m the larger cities and towns.
An ern• d xpedition whit h was being fitted out
for tb• en-ins purpose of wresting Cuba from
ilpenien d miiinn bad been brought officially before
the t of the Republic, who had issued a pro-
elamsti n ktainst it, and called for its abandonment.
This had emoted some &malefaction amongst these
Jaime, e p immediately in the undertaking ; but all
pirt ies gave the President much cred►t for his
inter,. re ce, 'wpm:ding, as many of them did, that it
wa. but a tontext to arm to expedition which wt.uid
not ',mit its Upellltioll to Coba,lbut probably involve
the all. TI in results of the most scrips nature.

The i• it,wirlg is tie prxianiiition :
moos to LisNeve %Ass an mud cspeli•ir.n is
abet to le k est is toe United Stites with an invntios
.he Island of Ceb,, or some of the pv.vin,., of
Maio; tiw bon infeeniation wLich the executive hie been

able to obtain, points to the Island of Cuba as the object of
this expedition. It is the duty of this government to ob.
MVO the faith of treaties, and to prevent any aggresvion by
our citizens upon the territories of friendly nations. I have,
therefore, thought it necessary and proper to issue this pro.
attention to warn :ill citizens of the United States who shill

connect themselves with an ers4.77pr.tse eo greasily its violetton •
of our treaty obligations that they will thereby subject
themstivse to the heavy penalty denounced against them by
our acts of Congress, and will forfeit their claim to the pr p-
tection of their country. No such persons must expect the
interference of this goverment in any form in their behalf,
no matter to what extremities they may be reduced, in con-
sequence of their conduct.
An enterprise to invade the territories of a friendly nation,
set oa foot and prosecuted within the limits of the United
States, is in the highest degree criminal, as tending to en-
danger the pears and compromise the honour of this nation,
and therefore 1 expect all gond citizens, as they regard our
natiehal reputation, as they respect their own laws, and the
law of natioos, as they value the hafting. of peace and the
welfare of their emutry, to discourage and prevent, by all
lawful means, say such riterprise, end I call upon every
uflPer of this government, civil or military, to u.se all efforts
in his power to arrest fur trial and paulAssent every such
offender egainet the laws providing fur the performance of
our sacred ohligations to felon, ly powers.

Tie feeling in favor of the recognition of the
nationality of Hungary was increasing, and the
excitement was considerably heightrred by the
despatches from Rome nude* to the treatment Lithe
American cinsul by the French soldiery.
The elections to be h ld in Ancust hid trrminated
more favourably to the radial•, or hcorceas, than
wee expected by the whip, &though the results were
nt.t quite satisfactory to their cpponen.s. In some of
the rates the struggle lay between the pro-slavery
anti the abolition cand dste , and much p-nonal and

vindictive feeling had been infused into %Le conteet;
suffieleat hag transpired to It ad to the conjecrare that
a "standup fight" may be looked fur in the legisla-
ture et its Leta sitting on the vexed question of
slavery.
'The excitement regarding the purchased the Nica-
ragua territory by the New York Fred New Orleans
Steamboat Corupar y, and the newer:pent interference
of the British consul art New York, had produced a
large amour tof loud denunciations front the Ameri-
can prees,who deny that Great Britain has any right to
interfere in the matter, and the American government
is strongly, and it seems, unanimously ativised, not to
notice the protest of the Braish consul in the matter.
The advice, to Land from the cotton-growing dis-
tricts are very gloomy for the planters' prospects.
Not more than a third crop will be made in some of
the states. B. fore the commtocement of the rainy
seamen the yield p: omieed weli, but now the forms
are drooping, rend the api earwax has Tito altered.
The corn crops, ten, were injured by rain, which
kept the stalk growing, and prevennd the ear from
filling up.
In the southern districts the fall of rain was still
very heavy, and there were some thunder-storms.
At St. Louis a gr.at defalcation wee discovered, on
the 11th August, at the Bark of Missouri. It amounts
to 120,000 dollars, so far as discovered. The too .ey
was abstracted float boxes containing foreign gold,
and the operation is supposed to have been going on
for several years. Nathaniel Cuilde, jun., late toying
teller, had been arrested of an affidavit of the cashier
charged with the peculation. Ile had given bail.
The slavery question was berg much agitated. In
Virginia there wee great excitement, and every pre-
paration was being made to stand firm by Calhoun in
the struggle, which is looked upon es inevitable.
Some trials in the southern states for enticing slaves
to run away from their masters, and which *coined
in the conviction and puniehne.rat of the offenders,
had increased the excitement on the subject.
We have nothing of int: rest from Canada or New
Brunswick in our present advice,.
The Halifax Bank was robbed of a larze amount of
treasure on the 10th inst. The robber was supposed
to have aerie ed is England by the Europa, which
smiled the following morning.
The advice from Califoruia, received per Empire
City, appear to corroborate the termer advicen rela-
tive to the amount of gold in that region. A beauti-
fill lamp, said to be the purest natty al specimen yet
receiv.d, was shown in our office to-doy. It weighedl
19e pennyweights 17 grains, and was consigned by
Cook, Baker, and Co., to J. R. Euo, of this city.
There had been a large number of arrivals, and the
markets were overstocked with all kinds of mer-
chandise.
It was represented thot goods could be purchased
to ship back to New York to pay a profit in that mar-
ket. A proclamation of General Riley, United States
officer, advises the people of California that they need
not expect to be teemed in any effort to establish an
independent government; that he has ceders from the
administration to have elections held to send delegates
to a convention to draught a stave constitwion, and
that he was detremined to carry out the wishes of the
government at hingt'n.
The people Stem disposed to acquiesce in this move-
ment. 'The Convention etas to meet on the let of
September. There was plenty of gold there, but the
labour necessary to obtain it intimidated those who
were unused to mush physical effort. The steam-ship
Oregon had arrived at l'anama with Tech, amounting
to upwards of (iOO,OOO dollars.
Vie have Jamaica accounts to the 7th inst. The
sugar-canes on the Wind looked exceedingly healthy.
The favourable accounts from England had produced
advanced rates for sugar?, and had given a stiusWins
to business. On the 19. h ult. Barbadoes was com-
paratively healthy and fine. Intelligence from Ma-
racaibo to the 19th ult. describes Venezuela as being
in a elite of revolution.
General Baez landed in Coro from Comma about
the let, when the whole of that province at once de-
clared in his favour. There had been some fighting,
in which the government trona.s were defeated.
A Mr xican commissioner ban arrived at Santa Fe,
and has issued a proclamation to those Mexicans who
do not wish to become citizens of the United States
by remaining in the territory of New Mexico, inviting
them to cross the frontier and take possession of lands
which the Mexican government will assign them in
compensation for the farms and houses they shall
abandon.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

mand, theStaek Market is. heavy. Government Seturitiee and Mate
Mocks maintain their 'ninon, during the but few duje, although the
demand for European tones :neat appears to have armed fur the pre-
heat; but the norodividend.payiag stocks, are now rather pressing on
the market, and rater., for some time past, have had a downward
tendency. At the elms of bustheas to-day, however, there appeared
to be a alight reaction, and more gramma wan exhibited.

advice* per America of the 27th ult., from Liverpool. Their tenour
was not as Lim oracle as bad been generally anticipated, and parttime,
coesequentiv were made on main terms; in some Instances the de.
cline amounted to 14. On the following day (Friday), buyer c ime
freely forward, and sale.; to the extent of 0000 Alio, were effected,
fully recovering the decline noticed; the market clewing with a firm
tone, and upward leniency. The change in feeling sem produced
by the unterourable wirier, from the *math, relative to the growing
crop, to which we shall refer hercofter. On statUnday the sales amounted
