AMERICA.

ARRIVAL OF THE CANADA.

The following appeared in a part of our im-
pression of yesterday :---
The British and North American Royal Mail steam-
ship Canada, Captain Lang, arrived this (Monday)
morning from Boston and Halifax, having sailed from
the former port on the 19th, and from the latter on the
'2lst. &Sides the usaal mails and a valuable cargo, she
brought alSo 69 passengers, bat so specie.
The Canada passed the following vessels :—Oct. 26th,
6.40 a.ai., R.M.S. Europa; Oct. 29th, 10 a.m., 120 miles
-west of Cape Clear, the steam-ship City of Baltimore ;
'Oct. 30th, 7.45 am., :off Tuskar, H.M.S. Asia; Oct.
30th, noon, off Bardsey, signalled Arieriean ship Aderon-
dock, and passed Cultivator for Nei, York.
A most strange and .almost incredible piece.ef infor-
mation comes to ns, says the Nay l'okk iikraid, by
'telegraph front B;:itimere. It represents that a mob of
'negro insurrectionists, numbering several hundred, and
led on by white men, bad seized -en Sunday night upon
the United States Arsenal at Harper's Ferry, possessed
-themselves of the arms of the government there de-
posited, sent waggon loads of titles into the interior,
stopped and- tired into passing traias, planted cannon
upon the bridge .over the Potomac, cut the telegraph
(1
wires, seized and .kept in custody the peaceable an
orderly citizens of -the place, levied contrib dons upon
the 'hotels anal provision stores, slot several parsons, and
otherwise committed dreadful baroc and ensisaghts, all
against the -peace :and sovereignty of the people of.the
'United States.
Our Baltimore despatches leave us alto ether at sea
in regard to tie origin and causeGf the outbreak, but our
special despatch from Washington gives more particu-
lars. From this, we yearn .that the Secretary of War
has been officially informed of the dangerous extent of
the movement. It appears to be a regular negro con-
spiracy or insurrection, planned lad organised ar some
time past, and led on and directed by White men. The
Secretary had information months since of the existence •
of such a conspiracy, and of the intention of the negro
plotters to seize upon the arsenal at Harper's Ferry,
possess themselves of arms wherewith to arm the slaves
of Virginia and the neighbouring States, establish
themselves at Wheeling and other points, and regain
their freedom.. He seems to have gixen no credetkee to
the story when he first hea.rd it, .bat it now becomes
fearfully verified. -
The steamship Star of the West, Captain G.
Har-
rison, which left Aspinwall on the 3rd of October, at
eight o'clock in the morning, and Key West on the 10th
instant, at one o'clock in the morning, arrived at this
port at one o'clock on SMiday afternoon, with the Cali-
fornia
mails and passengers. The Star of the West,
at eleven o'clock on the morning of the -Ith instant,
when 140 miles from Aspinwall, broke her starboard
shaft,' close to the wheel, and was detained three hours
in consequence, since which time she made the'entire
passage with the use of one wheel only. She left, at
Key West, 210 passengers, and $267,653.51 for New
Orleans. The Star of the West left, in the port of
Aspinwall, United States steamer Roanoke, sloop Preble,
and storeship Relief: Crews all well.
The NM YOrk Times of the 18th gives some interesting
information relAtiveto the recent filibustering attempt at
New Orleans. The statement which c.mes from sources
apparently entitled to credit, also explains the hitherto
mysterious 'connexion of the steamer l'hilade;iNas of
the United States mail line, with the
,filibusters. It
appears that a large quantity of arms and munitions
intended for Walker's expedition against Nicaragua,
together with several. boats to be used for transporting
the filibusters up the Colorado branch of the San Juan
River, weio shipped on board the Philadelphia from
New York ; and these arms and munitions were retained
on board the steamer after the rest of her cargo had
been discharged at New Orleans, and that she was des-
tined
to convey Walker and his men to Nicaragua.
Notwithstanding- the searches made, the Collector of
that port and the ~United States Marshal failed to de-
velop the existence of these arms. It is alleged that
they are still on board of the steamer, and that it is the
intention of Walker and his men to depart in her on
the 20th inst: for Nicaragua. The Philadelphia and
Empire City, it, is,anderstoad, are to constitute the line
for carrying the mail from New Orleans to Aspinwall.
Whether either of them is to be used meantime_ to land
the filibusters at Sari Juan del Norte while she is pass-
ing that point on her way to Aspinwall, is a question to
be decided.
The latest reports from Vera Cruz, San Luis': Potosi,
and the city of Mexico only confirm news we had before
received—i. e., that everybody was preparing, for the
coming fight. Among the most active was Gen, De-
.

gollado, who was still e San Luis Potosi, where he had
made the following appointments, some of whir,t, will
surprise the reader :—Gen. EchelgaraY-2,:ne saint) gen-
tleman who fought. a few mrltus ago for the reaction
and the church—to be ',lief of the staff. Gen. Tapia
to be chief of a nrps of officers, to be formed out of all
vattPitea officers. Gens: Zaragoza and Tracoui to
-different commands of the line. Gen. Corona had gone
to occupy Tepic. Miramon, it is staved, was, not less
active ; he would take the field in person, leaving in
Mexico-a Vice-President to direct the affairs of State.
The impending danger seems to have united Miramon
and Marquez for the. present. To judge from appear-
ances, the church party will be the first in the field. In
the meantime, a conspiracy against Miramon has been
discovered at the capital. • It does not appear .who was
the leader • but it is certain some twenty perigns, many
of them of high standing, have been arrested,
