ARRIVAL OF THE CANADA.

The R.M.B. Canada, arrived here yesterday morning
with a week's later news ; the dates being New York,
Oct. 6; and Boston, Oct. 7.
The Anglo Saxon arrived out at Quebec on the sth
inst., under twelve days from Liverpool.
The news now to hand is rather interesting.
There was an especial change in the tone of commercial
affairs, but on the whole a more cheerful feeling prevailed,
and business-men seemed to take hold again with fresh
courage. The banks had been pressed by borrowers, but.
the average of specie for the week showed that the fault
was not wholly on their side. The New York Jouraccl of
Commerce, of the last date, says :

Many have drawn out the coin and hoarded it, so that
notwithstanding the large accessions froth the sub-
treasury and other sources, the banks have not been able
to:retain the amount given in the last report. This will
not appear surprising, if we associate it with the fact that
most of the money paid out by Government in redemption
of stocks has been given to the savings banks, and a large
part of it either returned to depositors or retained in
their vaults. The specie by the Star of the West will
prove a very welcome acces4on, and the payments on
account of drafts by the last two mails, will cause large
sums of money to change hands, and thus afford
additional relief. The bank statement shows a
decrease of nearly two. millions in specie, from causes
above noticed, and also a general decline in loans. The
falling off in the latter in the face of an implied agreement
to increase it, is explained by the assertion that large
amounts of temporary loans have been transferred to the
discount column, thus increasing the discount line without
swelling the total liabilities. The New England Banks
are resolved to cut off all doubtful institutions, and to
stand fast in a body by all which can show a sound con.
dition. The Western Bank of Springfield, and the North
America at Seymour were thrown out this morning by the
Suffolk. The Rhode Island Banks are making some dis.
crimination in regard to the bills of two or three of their
number, with a view of an early movement for resumption.
The suspenslon reported on Saturday had ne connection
with the Erie R.R. It was the Long Dock Co:, whose
works the Erie has leased, which was protested. That
company owe very little, and as the amount now suspended
is less than twenty thousand dollars, and about half its
indebtedness, it will doubtless obtain an extension.
There were very few failures to-day, and three o'clock
passed very quietly. Messrs. Yelvertou and Walker,
grocers, were obliged to suspend, but the absence or
further important disasters was favourably noticed.
The Secretary of he Interior had recently invested
nearly one million of dollars in the State Stocks. The
time was chosen for the investment, in order to contribute
something towards the relief of the money market.
A negative answer has been given at the General Land
Office to the inquiries as to whether a number of persons
forming themselves into a joint stock association, can
have the benefit of the Graduation Act by becoming settlers
on the public lauds, not for their individual benefit, but
for that of their common interests. Tae ground for this
answer is, that the. Graduation Act was intended for the
benefit of actual settlers and cultivators of the soil only,
not for speculators, and that the rights given by it are
personal only, and because of actual settlement and culti
vation already made:or contemplated.

Attorney—General Black, in a recent decision, says that
a person who claims land in California under a grant from
Mexico, is entitled to have a patent for it issued out of
the General Land Office, whenever he shows that his
claim has been finally confirmed by, the Commissioners of
the District Court, or by the Supreme Court ; if he, at
the same time, accompanies that proof with a survey
certified and approved ,by the Surveyor-Ganeral the
Attorney-General has certain supervisory coutroul over
the investigation of these California land claims, while the
cmtest upon them is between the United States and the
Mexican grantees. but beyond this, persons claiming titles
adverse to the patentees must resort to the proper Courts
of the State.

The Navy Department had received an official commu_
nication from Commodore, Paulding, relative to the recon-
noissance of the, Isthmus between Aspinwall and Panama,
to ascertain the practicability of constructing the Inter-
Oceanic Canal. He and his scientific party took the
route by which the railroad passes, as in every respect
most desirable for this purpose. He reports that the
Isthmus itself seems to present no serious obstacle for the
construction of a canal, but there would be great difficulty
in procuring labourers for the successful accomplishment
of the work. The distance from ocean to ocean, accor-
ding to Engineer Tatteu's estimate, along the proposed
line of route for the canal, is forty-five and three-fourths
miles. It is calculated that the cost of the canal, including
harbour improvements at.botheads, will not exceed eighty
millions of dollars.

The New Orleans papers of the 27th ult., publish the
decree of Mexico in regard to the new Tehuantepec Com-
pany. The route is to commence at the head of naviga-
tion on the Coaiz_coalcos river. The railroad is to be corn
meeced eighteen mow hs after the date of decree, and to
be completed at the yearly rate of 23 miles and 73 yards,
until entirely finished. Meanwhile the company mast
build and keep in order a good road, with the necessary
bridges, for carriages for conveying passengers and
mere ,andise of small weight. The surveys and plans
are.to be submitted to the Minister of Internal Im-
provements for his approval. The company are to
build, within two years from the completion of the
road, the necessary dykes and moles in the ports of
Ceatzacoalcos and Ventura, and will have to build
immediately the works necessary for discharging vessels.
The Government grants the necessary laud for depots,
statioas, 5...., also the use of material from private lands
by indemnifying the owners; gives the exclusive privilege
of transportation, and the power to levy tolls and transit
dues not exceeding 50 cents a league per passenger, nor
one per cent. a league for precious metals ; the govern.
ment to exact no import duties, nor contribution
except twelve cents for each package and passenger,
payable monthly ; the government to protect the line,
but confers no right ,of trade on the Isthmus : the
privilege to last six years, and the government to
receive fifteen per cent. on the net revenues whenever
the dividends are decla.red ; the company assumes the
payment of 609,000 dogs to Falconet, loaned Sloe and Co.,
with interest and damages; also the delivery of all the
mails a!o ig the line, ,and also the conveyance of all
officers, troops, employees, and agents of the govern-
ment gratis ; but metals and domestic merchandise are to
be conveyed at twenty per cent. less than the regular rates.
The government is to have two directors in the Board,
espionage on the progress of the work. The Cowprny
is to construct no fortification nor give passage to any
armed forces, except on consent of the Government. but
shall discharge its employees when, detected smuggling,
and compel passengers to obey the revenue laws. The
company is not to transfer or hypothecate privileges
without the consent of the Government. The line is to
be free for transportation.of the,inhabitants of the whole
world, but those who are not citizens of neutral countries
are to be charged 23 per cent. extra. A third of the
stock is to be reserved for the people of Mexico for four
mouths. Foreign sealed mail bags are to be respected by
the officials. The navigation or the Coatzacoalcos is to
be protected by the Mexican flag for the company's put"
poses.

. The Bremen barque Laura, from Bremen, had arrived
at New York with three persons who were wrecked in
the Central America. Their names are J. Tice, second
engineer; Alexander Grant, fireman; and G.W.Dawson,
a passenger, whom the Mary, of Greenock, from Car-
denas to Queenstown, had rescued from the Central
America. Mr. Tice was 72 hours drifting on a plank.
On the fourth morning, drifted by a boat and succeeded
getting into her, and on the fifth picked up Alexander
Grant, a fireman, :who hal been five days on part of the
hurricane deck. Grant having swam to the boat, the
two then pulled fur the hurricane deck, and took from it
G. W. Dawson, a passenger. There had been 12 men on
that part of the wreck : all died. Messrs. Tice, Dawson,
and Grant were eight days without water or provisions,
the sea makieg a breach over them most of the time. The
second day after the steamer went down saw a number of
passengers on pieces of wreck, btit could not assist them.
Mr.Tice saw Capt.Herndon j ast befol.e the ship went down.
The physical condition of Messrs. Tice and Grant exhi-
bited signs of the terrible sufferings endured during
their nine days' exposure. Both were very weak and
reduced in flesh, their feet were swatter), an I on their
lips, face and hands were traces of sores, where the ski❑
had been peeled off by the action of the salt water, and

their exposure to a scorching sun. Mr Tice . had °(e
oneigi
his feet bandaged, and it was with the greatest diulc „,
that he could walk. His feet and legs were said to

covered with blisters and boils. Mr. Grant look rps

care, both of the sufferers will probably soon be rest°,o
to health. The unfortunate men were treated with.frop

AUSTR ALIA.

ARRIVAL OF THE ROYAL CHARTER.

The Australian Steam Navigation Company's splendid
vessel, the Royal Charter, Captain Taylor, entered the
Mersey on Saturday forenoon from Melbourne, whence
she sailed on the 14th of August. having made the
passage home from land to land in little more than sixty-
two days. The run was made from Melbourne to Cape
Horn in little over eighteen and a half days, a perfor-
mance not only creditable to the ship, but her able and
talented commander. We insert an abstract of the log,
from which it will be perceived that the noble ship has
earned for herself a first-rate character, not only as a
steamer, but one of the most rapid sailing vessels of the
day. We have had the opportunity of hearing the
opinion of several of the passengers, and one and all are
unbonuding in their approbation of the ship's perfor-
mance. She frequently ran under canvass alone
eighteen and a halt knots an hour, on such occasion such
was the velocity of the ship, that the water on each
side of the ship rose to the height of six feet, form-
ing a kind of sea wall, both larbaard and starboard. Of the
commodious and comfortable arrangements of the Royal
Charter, and the kind and courteous treatment to every
one on board, the passengers speak in terms of the
highest praise, not a single ground for complaint being
made by any one.
The Royal Charter brings 20 first and 40 second cabin
passengers, beside more than 70 in the intermediate
berths. She has also brought home a heavy mail, a large
and valuable cargo of Australian produce, and gold on
freight amounting to nearly £400,000, exclusive of what is
in the hands of the passengers. The news of this arrival
is three weeks later than that brought by the last
Australian mail, and most of it is of an interesting cha.
racter. We append a full epitome of all that is worthy
of perusal.
