NEW INVENTIONS.—The Americans, always
fond of the " go-a-head" system, and determined to destroy
the barriers of rudeness, time, and space by several inventions they
are about to bring out, The Enal,sh, practical and calculating, are
in advance with almost every other nation in the success which
attends all their introductions, and have distinguished themselves by
the economising properties of their inventions. On this side of the
Atlantic it is quite customary to say "what will the invention
save ?" for that is a great essential of improvements. In the most
businesslike sense this applies to the Establishment of E. MOSES and
Sots, whose inventions in ATTIRE are the climax of all modern im-
provements, by an unity of speed and correctness in the execution
of orders, and combination of styles, comfort, and economy in every
seasonable article of dress. E. MOSES and Sox's new inventions in
OVERCOATA, over all pretended imitations, are perfectly victorious
in material, in fashion, in comfort, and cheapness. _ I

E. Mons and Sores new introductions in Sporting Dress are the
approved and the most business-like inventions of the age, affording
perfect ease in all sporting exercises, and presenting
manly appearance at an economical coat. a roost gentle-
E. MOSES and Sota's Juvenile Dress exhibits the most Ingenious
inventions, and combine novelties nog to be equalled elsewhere. The

CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard the

The Arctic sailed from New York on the 12th
inst., and has brought, besides the mails, 82 pas-
sengers, and 400,000 dollars in specie on freight.
The Royal mail steam-ship America, from Liver-
pool, arrived at Halifax on the 11th inst.
There was no news of importance from Washing-
ton. The Washington correspondent of the New
York Herald, writing on the 11th, says
" I understand the Government, upon the representa-
tion of Dr. Black, has determined to despatch the sloop
of war Cyane, Captain Holmes, immediately, as a part
of the home squadron, to Caledonia Bay, to convey a
surveying party, under the command of Lieutenant
Strain, United States' Navy, for the purpose of making
a thorough survey of the route from Caledonia Bay to
San Miguel, in order to settle the question definitely as
to the practicability of the proposed oceanic ship com-
munication between the Atlantic and Pacific. This is
done on the part of the Government, without reference
to the execution of the work by any particular company,
but as a subject deeply affecting our own commerce and
the defence of our Pacific States."

Kingston (Jamaica) advices of the 3d inst., state
that the question of import duties remained unset-
tled. The House of Assembly had deferred the
passing. of the bill until the committee appointed
to consider the propositions of the Colonial Secre-
tary with regard to a responsible Government shall
have made their report ; but in the meantime, and
in order to prevent the further loss of revenue, the
house has adopted a resolution similar ,to one
acted upon in 1849, declaring that the duties to be
levied under the Import Bill, when passed, shall
have effect on and from the 3d of November inst.,
in accordance with the last existing tariff. Business
matters, as may be anticipated, had not. improved.
under these circumstances. Indeed, so little confi-
dence is placed in the permanency of fiscal
legisla-
tion in the colonies, and especially at this juncture,
that no purchases on speculation or to any extent
can be effected. The weather was fearfully hot in
the island, but the public health continued pretty
good, although some cases of fever had appeared.
Supplies of imported goods continued generally
ample. Exchange on London, 90 days, 1 per cent.
premium ; 60 days 1/ per , cent• • 30 days 2 per
cent. premium.
Our advices from Valparaiso are to the Ist, and
Callao to the 12th ult.

Business was brisk in Valparaiso, and several
vessels had arrived from England and the United
States. English coals had been *2O per ton. Cop-
per scarce and no nitrate of soda offering. Freights
had advanced, the following being the last prices
paid :—Guano to London, 4/. ; silver ore to Liver-
pool, 5/. per ton.
In Peru all was quiet, and there appeared no
likelihood of a war with Bolivia. Two expeditions
had started for the Amazon gold regions, but,
owing to the bad management o.f the
sfrreed.
arrangements
of the expedition, much hardship was suffered.
From Bolivia the accounts were cheering.
money
the interior there appeared to be plenty .
and promptitude in payments. A serious dispute
civil
had taken place between the clergy and
authorities in Los Andes, Ecuador. The Governor
having summoned the curate in a civil suit, the
latter refused to appear, whereupon he was ar-
rested and sent to the capital of the province. The
Archbishop of Santiago immediately issued an
order suspending the administration of all sacra-
ments throughout the department of Los Andes
until the Governor is removed.
At the departure of the Arctic business had as-
sumed a more healthy aspect, and the tightness in
the Money Market was less severe than reported in
previous advices. Stocks were higher and firmer,
their former unsteadiness having disappeared.
The cotton market was quiet, but firm. The re-
ceipts at the various ports were very moderate, and
far below the average of last season.
The advices from this country and the conti-
nent, taken out by the America, had a marked
effect ou the market for bread-stuffs, and caused a
decided rise to take place in the value of the diffe-
rent articles embraced under this head. Large
sales were effected at the advance.

The provision market continued to exhibit the
same quiet character it has maintained of late,
with prices unchanged from last quotations.
Freights were inactive at the following quota-
tions :—London— flour per bol. 4s. 6d. to ss. ; grain
per bush., 16d. to 161 d.; beef per tierce, 7s ; to-
bacco per hhd., 60s. To Liverpool—cotton, 7-32 d.
to id. per lb. ; flour per brl., 3s. 9d. ; grain per
bush., 124 d. to 13(21.
Exchange on London was quoted at 109 to 1091 ;

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

PORTS MOUTH, Nov. 23,

The Duke of Wellington, 131, Commodore Martin,
C. 8., will be paid wages at Spithead on Ft:iday, and
Rear Admiral Corry will put to sea with the Prince
Regent, 90 (flag), Captain Hutton ; Duke of Welling-
ton ; Arrogant, 46, Captain Yelverton ; Tribune, 30,
Captain the Hon. S. T. Carnegie ; Amphion, 34, Captain
Key ; and Crui9er, 14, Commander the Hon. G. H.
Douglas. The destination is not known, but is believed
to be Lisbon, as we learn by a letter from Plymouth this
~fternoon that the Imperieuse. 51, Captain Watson,
C.B. ; Valorous, 16, Captain Buckle ; and Desperate.
8, Captain Chambers, have proceeded to that station.
The St. Jean d'Acre, 101, Captain the Hon. H. Keppel,
is not expected to be ready to sail with Admiral Corry,
but will follow him. The Sidon, 22, paddle-frigate will
remain at Spithead.

Vice-Admiral Sir Thomas and Lady Cochrane gave a
brilliant reception to-night, at the Admiralty-house, to
upwards of 250 guests, among them several members of
the nobility and the most distinguished of the united
services.

The Russian corvette Navarin, 22, left Spithead this
morning, at half-past 7 o'clock, for Kamtschatka. She
saluted the national flag with 21 guns, and the Port-
Admiral with 15, on leaving, and we never heard smarter
firing from any foreign man-of-war at this station. The
Prince Regent, flag-ship, at Spithead, acknowledged
both salutes from her heavy guns in splendid style ; the
Victory also acknowledged the compliment, and the
Platform-battery also.
Rear-Admiral Berkeley and Sir James Stirling are
to-day named, as well as those we reported yesterday,
as likely to have the appointment of Admiral-Superin-
tendent of this dockyard. Either would be a most
fitting successor to the present respected and active
occupant of the post.

WOOLWICH, NOV. 23.
APPOINTMENTS.
Second Master Charles F. Taprail (1849), from the
Atholl storeship, on the west coast of Africa station, to
the St. George, 120, guardship of ordinary, at Devonport.
Midshipman T. W. G. D. Darner, to the Frolic, 16,
at Portsmouth.
Clerk Thomas W. W. Spear (1842) to the Horatio
screw steam-guardship.
The Poictiers (third rate), formerly carrying the pen-
dant of the Captain-Superintendent of Chatham Dock-
yard, is to be again brought forward for the service, in
the room of the Boscawen, 70, to be fitted as flagship
for the West Indies station.
The Boscawen is of 2,212 tons, and was built at
Woolwich from a design by Sir Wm. Symonds, when
Surveyor of the Navy. She was launched in 1844, and
has never been employed at sea.

Samuel Enderby, a ship now out at sea. If it were de-
termined to prosecute whaling from this side until affairs
in the colonies shall have become more settled, it would,
it was calculated, take about 10,0001. to fit out the four
vessels now at home, and the money would have to be
raised for that purpose. Inefficient management at the
Auckland Islands had, in the first instance, interfered
with the success of the enterprise, and the disturbed
position of Australia through the gold discoveries had
subsequently thwarted all endeavours to re-organise
operations. In answer to questions, the chairman (Mr.
J. 1). Powles) stated that, in the event of the company
winding up, there was no prospect of any substantial
return to the shareholders. With respect to the exer-
tions of Mr. Dundas and Mr. Preston as the special
commissioners delegated to proceed to the Auckland
Islands, it was explained that, although they had not
Proved successful in restoring the position of the com-
pany, they had been eminently serviceable in curtailing
further expenditure and diminishing loss. A special
vote of thanks to Mr. Preston was then passed (a similar
compliment on a previous occasion having been paid to
Mr. Dundas), and the resolution for the appointment of
a committee to confer with the directors was agreed to.

IMPROVEMENTS AT THE HOUSES OF PARLIAMENT.—
The ventilating shaft is to be raised 12 feet higher. It
now presents a light and ornamental appearance, quite
in keeping with the general features of the elegant
octagonal tower adjoining, which, as well as the central
and clock towers, is proceeding with great rapidity. On
the area called the Star-chamber Court, which is adjacent
to the octagonal tower, considerable progress has been
made with the ornamental carvings, and the laying down
upon a surface of concrete the patent elastic pavement,
as in use in other courts and areas of this edifice. The
Lords' front appears to keep pace with the rest of the
works, and will very shortly be visible above the hoard-
ing from the west side of Abingdon-street. At the end
of this front, ,and adjoining the Victoria Tower, the
Peers' entrance is being constructed, and will be ready
for the use of their. Lordships at the commencement of
the lasting session of Parliament.
