The Trent brings about fifty-eight passengers,
among whom arc :—Judge Stevenson and three
ehih:ren,; Major Fenly, lady and children; Mr. and
Mrs. ltoch, Mr. and Mrs. Ilokely ; and Mr. and
Mrs. Brandon, Jamaica; Captain Nugent and
Mr. McKay, Barboadoes ; Mr. Buyles, Demerara;
Mr. Rainey, Dominic► ; Doctor Black, Antigua ;
Mr. Gordon, Tampico ; Mr. Peebles and Mr. Ban-
dity, St. Thomas ; and several Frenchmen and
Spaniards.
Amongst her cargo is specie to the value of
1,240,93 n dollars, of which 30,000 dollars are on
account of Mexican dividends.

The 'Trent was detained at St. 'Thomas's until 3
a.m., on the 22nd ult., waiting the arrival of the,
Great Western from the Gulf of Mexico; the delay
originated at Tampico, the bar being imp.racticabli4
from heavy freshcs coming down the river. The
Great Western remained off there until noon of the

9th July, when she sailed for Vera Cruz, leaving
behind the mail, 9,200 dollars on freight, and the
Admiralty agent and purser.
From Mexico we learn that, instead of the tariff
being lowered, higher duties are to be enforced, and
that the Mexican government had been seriously
urged to suspend all payments for a twelvemonth.
There is no other news of any importance from
Mexico. The last accounts state that political parties
were quiet. Trade was very active at Vera Cruz. At
Tampico they have had several northerly storms, very
unusual in the summer months. Chagres continued
in great disorder, the town and neighbourhood being
overrun with Americans of the lowest character.

Lynch law is the only law respected, and that only
from fear. "I am humbly of opinion," says a corre-
spondent, " that the English mails are not safe from
the attacks of these rascals. Robbery and murder
arc quite common; yet the natives take their re-
, vengc when an opportunity offers. An English ship
of war ought to be stationed at Chagres for the pro-
tection of English interests and property. The rail-
way from Navy Bay is proceeding fast.

The Cumberland was reported at Bermuda, with
the Alarm and Scorpion ; the Imautu at Jamaica ; the
Inflexible at the Havannah; the Bermuda at Grey
Town ; the Persian at Halifax ; the Helena at Au-

tigua
Left at St. Thomas's the Dee and Great Western.
The Trent passed the Medway at 3 a.m. on the 11th
July, about 100 miles to the eastward of Chagres ;
Eagle at Burbadues, the I)erwent at Antigua, and
the Conway at the Ilavannah. Tuesday, sth July,
at noon, passed the ship Dido, standing to the west-
ward ; 6th, at t 4 a.m., passed the English ship Eli-
zabeth Bentley, standing to the southward.
