ARRIVAL OF THE BALTIC.
LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY, 6 A.X.

By the United States mail steamer Baltic vie
have advices from New York to the 15th instant.
She has brought 134 passengers and 1,000,00°
dollars in specie on freight.
The Baltic passed the steamer Atlantic from
Liverpool, for New York, at 12.15 a.m. on the
16th, 125 miles from Now York.
The New York Herald, speaking of the failures
which had occurred and were likely to occur. says'
"At the present day, it is said that Mr. Draper ill"
tends to resume payment to-morrow. We do not be"
lieve that such a thing will come to pass. Indeed, We
are rather inclined to think, from the appearance of the
financial horizon, that we are not very far from the cum-
mencement of one of the most tremendous convulsions
that has overtaken the credit system of the country;
and we believe that this convulsion has been precipitate('
on us without warning and without notice by the strange
and extraordinary management of the surplus revenue
and financial affairs of the Government under the Pre'
sent ignorant and incompetent Secretary of the Tow'
sury at Washington,
" It is now 18 months since we described the process
by which the country was gradually verging towards
another explosion of its financial system, to a more re-
markable and extraordinary extent than that which too_it
place in 1837. We are not certain but we are nom' i 8
the commencement of that great change, and that t7O
commencement has been hurried upon us; as we ha
already said, by the acts of the Secretary of the l•re
sury.
" In the midst of this unhealthy and extraordiritie
enlargement of commercial and all sorts of credits,
see the Secretary of the Treasury, in his ignorance t,il
presumption, using the surplus revenue under his coot_i:j
in a mode that will only add tightness to tightness
screw to screw, till the collapse comes upon us
thunderstorm in a summer sky.
usc' "As a specimen of this igaik.atice and want of V„n
ledge, the Secretary of the Treasury is now buying
the bonds of the Government not due, and sending the
very specie to Europe without any necessity for doing
so. But this is not all. We have every reason to believe
that the same unscrupulous set of politicians, actuated
by the like principles and incapacity, will produce the
same results in the Government credits and Government
moneys at this era as those which were brought about
in 1837."

The Washington correspondent of the New York
Herald says, it is doubtful if Mr. Mason goes to
France, but if he declines he will probably act as 5
locum tenens for some member of the present Cabl"
net on its dissolution, which must be before the be"
ginning of November.
Advices from the City of Mexico, to the 3d iTt
stant, state that a Mexican war-steamer had la'
Vera Cruz, with 300 troops, for Yucatan, wher° 3
revolution had been reported. Don Lina Alcorts
had been appointed Minister of War.
An extensive conspiracy had been discovered in
Puebla, and several prominent citizens had been
arrested. Among them are Don Juan Nuzie,s'
General Manoles, Robba, and Don Luis de ,5
Rosa. They had been ordered to leave the
country.
The New York stock market was very heavi;
Most descriptions of stocks had declined. IVIaleJ
brought from Bto 18 per cent. Very little if an'
good paper could be obtained under 12 per cent.
