The Steam- ship, Asia, Captain Lott, arrived in
the merEidy, yesterday forenoon, from. New York,
after a passage of ten days and a half, having left
that port at noon, on the 21st ult.
She has brought home 64 passengers, and 236,000
dollars in specie: She passed the steamer Arabia,
hente ror New York, on the 28th ult., in lat. 50,
46,16 n. 28, 26, and at 1 a.m. on Sunday,,-(yesteP
day,) she passed the' Canada, hence for Halifax, and
Boston,

The Sieamei.'AHtie, from iiii-erpOOl, had arriVed
at 14eW .Ydrk, on the 18th September, at eight
o'clock a.m.
The American advices received by the Asia, are
four days later than those previously to hand.
The steamer Golden Age, which intended to come
to Liverpool, enroute for Australia, had made a most
-satisfactory trial trip, an account of which will be
found in another coluinn:

The steamer Hansa; froin 13reinen, had arrived
out at; New York, after a very boisterous passage of
twenty-one days. After having being dt sea five
days, she brdlib one Of her engines:

Tlie gteather Cambridge, running between Balti-
more and Frechielisburg, had been destroyed by
fire, but fortunately no lives were lost

The yellow fever continued to prevail at New Or-
leans, but not to so fearful an extent as we have
recently had to record. On the 11th, there-were
68 deaths, of which 48 were of yellow fever;
on the 12th, 65 deaths, of which 40 were of
yellow fever. In the Charity Hospital, on the
10th and 11th, there were 40 admissions, 28 dis-
charges,- and 18 deaths, only 14 of which were
of yellow fever. The whole number of deaths
in the city, from May 22 to September 13, was
11,258, of which, 7,794 were of yellow fever. In the
suburbs. of Carrolton, Algiers, Gretna, and Jeffer-
son City, there were several hundred more deaths.

The scourge had not disappeared from Mobile.
The Mobile papers say that the telegraph reports
to.the.Northern papers do not tell the whole truth
about the fever there, and that the mortality is
greater than represented. The following is a com-
plete list of the interments reported by the Board
of Health since the first report of the season

This is a frightful mortality, as the population
left in the city is supposed to be only from five to
seven thousand. -

We regret to learn from Philadelphia, that much
alarm had been produced there by a number of
cases having occurred. They were, however, of a
mild type, and yielded to medical treatment.
Considerable damage is reported to have been
done to the cotton crop by excessive rain.
The United States sloop of war Cyane, belonging
to the fishery squadron, had arrived at Portsmouth,
N. H. Her officers report that fish were abundant,
and that many vessels had sailed for home with
full cargoes. . No seizures by the British cruisers
had been heard of.

A break had occurred in the Erie canal, near
Rochester, which had caused much inconvenience
by the non-delivery of bread stuffs at the sea board
towns. Parties having sold flour or wheat found
it necessary to purchase more, in order to complete
contracts.
