AMERICA.
ARRIVAL OF THE CANADA

LIVERPOOL, SUN DAY

The British and North American royal mail
steam ship Canada, Captain -Stone, arrived here
t eight from Boston and Halifax, after a fair
passage of ten days and a half, bringing adsices
from New York, to the 25th, Boston, to the 26th,
and Halifax, to the 28th, all inclusive. She has
brought home 57 passengers, and 275,110 dollars
in specie.
The steam ship Asia, which sailed hence on the
Bth ult., reached New York at 3, p.m., on the 19th.
On the 3rd November, in lat. 25 29, long. 50 40, N.
the Canada passed a large steamer, supposed to be
the mail steamer America, from Liverpool.
The advices brought by the. Canada are a week
later than those previously to hand, and embrace
news of considerable interest. The advices car-
ried out from this country by the Asia, had caused
a further decline in the markets for breadstuffs,
and produced a disposition on the part of holders
to realize. The decline in flour is stated to have
been about 18 cents per barrel. There was a large
supply of wheat upon the market, whilst the busi-
ness going forward was restricted, and prices in
consequence were not sustained. In Cotton there
was rather more steadiness as regards prices, but
holders were free sellers at the quotations.
Larger estimates of the crop were indulged
in, and the picking weather at the South
for the past month is reported more favourable.
During the week there had been considerable
stringency in the Money Market, and under the
pressure the Stock Market had been. heavy, and
prices drooping, but the last report. gives a more
favourable view of the condition of affairs in
Wall-street. The last accounts say " the supply
of money is a little better, but the relief is not
material." The rate of interest ruled from 12 to 18
per cent., and for money on call 7 per cent. One
account says the pressure had been very consider-
ably assisted by the fact that one of the Wall-street
banks had discounted paper to the amount of
200,000 dollars for Western Bank. There was
only a limited demand for exchange for remittance
by the Canada, and the quotations now reported
for bills on London are scarcely so high as those
last received. They stood at 1094 and loot.
The New York papers give most painful details
of the frightful mortality on board emigrant ships
from this and other European ports, to New York,
which we publish in another column. In addition,
our private Correspondent states that the Wash-
ington, from Liverpool, reached New York on the
22d ult; that during the voyage cholera had pre-
vailed to an alarming extent; that on her arrival
from sixty to seventy persons were taken to the
hospital, while the vessel had been put under qua-
rantine. Our correspondent adds, that the number
of deaths during the voyage had not been officially
published, but that it was reported to have reached
nearly one hundred. _ _

Boston letters of the 21st report the arrival at
that port of the ship Sagadahock, on board of
which seventy deaths from cholera had been re-
ported. On her arrival the mayor and aldermen
held a special meeting, and passed an order for the
Committee on Internal Health to take such mea-
sures that the danger from its approach may be
Averted from the city. The disease appeared on
the day after she left port.
The packet ship Western World from this port
for New York, having on board over 600 emigrants,
had been wrecked on Squan Beach, but fortu-
nately no lives were lost. The particulars of the
wreck will be found in detail in another part of
our paper.
The advices from Washington announce the dis-
missal of Mr. Bronson, who has for some time filled
the office of collecter of New York. The appoint
ments of Robert M. M'Lane, of Maryland, as
Commissioner to China ; and Levi K. Bowen, of
Maryland, Consul to Bordeaux, had been officially
announced. The correspondent of the New York
Courier and Enquirer, in reference to the recent
report that the British Government was engaged
in an attempt to abolitionize Cuba, says, "as I
stated some time since, my information was to the
effect that the State Department had received no
official advices of the pendency of such negotiations."
A very destructive fire had occurred at Louis-
ville, Kentucky. The block on Fifth street, half

way from Buffett to Water street, was entirely con
sumed, including -the Journal office, the rolling
mills warehouse, Holbrook's tobacco warehouse,
and the drug establishment of Wilson, Starbird
and Smith. The loss was estimated at about
200,000 dols., on which insurances to the extent of
160,000 dols. were current. The following are
some of the companies :—New York Home, 10,000
dols.; Hudson River, 5000 dole; Royal of Liver-
pool, 10,000 ; the American and Franklin, of Phila-
delphia, 15,000 dols. each. The balance is in
various Southern agencies and Louisville offices.
Serious fires were raging in the woods near Detroit.
