The only arrival this morning of importance is the Ameri-
can packet of the 15th ult., from Now York, which conveys
news of the greatest interest and consequence from Canada.
Things there have not so good an appearance as per the last ac-
count, owing to the report of the rebellion having reached the
Upper Province; but, according to some accounts, it had not
much effect, and was soon put down.
Although the news at present is of rather a contradictory
nature, nevertheless, it has caused some excitement in the
city, and had the effect to cause Consols to recede.
The following is a letter front the Buffalo Journal extra :
We have been favoured with a copy of a letter of the
date of the ith of December, from Toronto, which states
that at the • time of writing, the Government forces
were engaged with the Patriots about two miles from the city
of Toronto, and from which place they had been driven. The
express which brought the letter, farther states that the courier
came out of the city with the troops, and that before be passed
them three rounds had been fired upon the rebels. Another
letter from Toronto states that there were then inToronto, in the
opinion of the writer, at least twenty Royalists to one Patriot.
Mr. Nl‘lienzie, we now learn, commanded the Reformers in
person. What the.effect of this repulse will be, it is difficult
to conjecture. Our opinion is that it will retard, but not en-
tirely prevent the revolutionary movements.

Consols have been continually fluctuating during the morning, owing
to a doulittlil opinion among the speculators, whether the accounts from
Canada this day are of a favourable nature or not.

In the early part of the morning the intelligence was considered ra-
ther of a gloomy east, and Consols receded about per cent. from the
closing price of yesterday; since which it is ascertained that the rebel-
lion in Lower Canada is nearly crushed : and that the militia and vo-
lunteers alone have been able to defeat a large body of the rebels on an
attack upon Toronto. Therefore, no doubt, on the return of the regu.
lays to the Upper Province, the rebels will immediately take to their
heels.

This defeat has given the speculators in Consols encouragement to
repurchase the Consols they sold in the early part of the day; conse-
quently a reaction has taken place from 91i to 921, at which price they
are at present. Exchequer Bills, 2.0. per day, 50 49 Prem ; de. 2d. per

We understand that Mr. Laing-, the Magistrate of
Hatton-garden Police-office, having 'received
communica_
tion from Lord John Russell on Wednesday last, that if he
should send in his resignation of his office it would be accepted,
has taken the hint, and Mr. Laing is no longer a magistrate.
—Morning Paper.
At Hatton-garden Police-office this morning, Mr.
Rogers, the sitting Magistrate, observed he had noticed a pa-
ragraph in the morning papers, stating that Mr. Laing had
been entirely removed from the Commission. This was not
the fact, Mr. Laing having ceased to be a Police Magistrate
merely. The worthy Magistrate added that he could not un-
derstand how it was that statements were continually finding'
their way into the public papers that were quite the reverse
of the truth.
The Duke and Duchess of Montrose have arrived

embassy at Munich.
The Marquis of Tichfield arrived at Harcourt
House yesterday from the seat of the Duke of Portland, Wel-
beck Priory, in Nottinghamshire.

ing a party of sporting gentlemen at their seat near Faken -

Mr. Henry Baring and family returned to Stan-

Mr. O'CONNELL.—We are glad to he able to a"-
nounce the perfect recovery of Mr. O'Connell from his late
severe indisposition ; and we are particularly happy to add that
he will he able to enter immediately upon his public duties.—
Pilot of Wednesday last.
Yesterday morning, about 11 o'clock, a serious ac-
cident occurred to a little boy, about ten years of age, named
Wharton Wharton ke , whose parents reside in Green-street, Theobas-
road. It appeared that be had by some means obtained
a quantity of gunpowder, which he had made into what arc
called " pops," being tightly folded in paper. In letting one
of these off it exploded near his face, which was scorched in
a shocking manner, and it is feared he will lose his sight ;
his band was also much injured.
THE FOG.—At an early hour this morning. a
heavy fog came on, which up to the present time of writing
eleven o'clock, still continues unabated, and bids fair to con-
tinua so through the day. The foff pervades with equal dense-
less, every part of the metropolis ; and candles and
are, every where in requisition, just as if it were the dusk of
evening. We know not when we have seen so thick and blind-
ing a fog, gas-light,
