Inaxisn FRONTIERS, MAY 31.—The three overdue mails
from Seres and Salonichi have not yet arrived, nor have we
been able to obtain any certain information respecting the
causes of the delay; we hope to receiva them with the next
mail from Constantinople.
Letters from the Herzeaowina say that the old Governor of
that province tas repeatedly received orders from the Porte to
repair to Constantinople, but continues to decline complying
with those orders, under the pretext that his great age, and
the wounds which he has received in the. public service, will
not allow him to undertake So long a journey. Meantime
the oppression of the Christian popu'ation in the province
of the Herzegowina cmtinues in an alarming manner. 'the
truce between the Vizier of Mostar and the Vladika of Men-
tenegro, which expired en the 3d of May, has been renewed.

VIENNA, JUNE 4.—The Directors of the Arstrian National
Bank yesterday fixed the dividend for the first half y-ar of
18-11, at 38 florins, reserving besides four florins for thy. divi-
dend of the second half year. The dividend fOr the whole year
may therefore be taken at 84 florins, wi.ich sum represews a
capital of 1,630 florins, and consequently proves the proceeds of
the back have not been affected, as was feared, by the circu-
lation of credit, which has been o'ten spoken of, and therefure

Letters from Constantinople of.the 26th ult.,.have been
received this morning. The Porte, in .order to allay the
irritation in the provinces of Adrianople, Silistria, and
Monastic, had removed their Governors and appointed
MHz PACIIA, Nonni EFFENDI, and EESCHID EFFENDI
to succeed them. The new hatti scheriff, with the latest
concessions made to the VICEROY at the suggestion of
the rour Powers, was to be forwarded to Alexandria
before the end of May.
The Lloyd's Company steamer Le Comte Calloat had
arrived at Smyrna from Beyrout, and was performing
quarantine there. One case of plague had showed itself
on board. According to reports made by the Captain
the plague was committing dreadful ravages throughout
Syria. In the towns of Bey:out and Acre the number
of deaths daily was very great. To add to the miseries
of Syria the people are very discontented, and have great
reason to complain of the harshness and cruelty of the
newly appointed Ttirkish authorities.

Mr. Fox Maule is to be appointed Vice-President of
the Board of Trade, in the room of Mr. Sheil, who goes
out as Governor of Bombay.
Sir James Graham, turned out of Pembroke, rejected
by
,Westminster, and having lost all hope of getting re-
turnel by any independent, constituency, has made his
peace with -the Lowthers. lie has asked pardon for
all his former opposition and insults. He has
craved their "Mercy—they have forgiven him. They
have further resolved to make use of him, and bring him
in for one of their own pocket counties or boroughs.
Probably the good men of Westmorland may be com-
manded to elect Sir James Graham. Those who have
no will of their own must obey their lord's orders.
The Borough of Wenlock, we understand, would
be sure to return a Liberal were Lord Wenlock,
who has considerable influence in the borough, to allow one
of his own sons to start for it. The party to which the
Noble Lord is attached, and which has done much for
him, having made him a Peer, are rather surprised that
the Noble Lord does not exert himself more to secure the
success of those who have helped him to his honours.
Her Majesty and Prince Albert, attended by the Royal
suite, are expected to leave Nuneham, the seat of his Grace
the Archbishop of York, between ten and eleven o'clock
this morning, on their return to town.

LAUNCH OF THE TRAFALGAR.—We have authority
to state that from the numerous impositions practised at
the launch of the Thunderer cn the 12th of September,
1831, by persons gaining admittance in uniforms though
belonging to neither branch of the service, no person
whatever can be admitted on the 21st into the main gate
of the Dockyard, without a ticket signed by the Captain
Superintendent.

CAPITAL.—The Standard says " that the giant mo-
nopoly is the monopoly of the capitalist of all the profit
of labour, industry, and enterprise. But one thing is
exempt from the grasping monopoly, the profit of the
land. Indeed, Standard, we thought Sir James Graham
had proved that nine-tenths of the rent of land is mort-
gaged—got into the clutches of the capitalists. We thought,
moreover, that at present the greater portion of the land
had been bought over and over again, and that rent and
prbfit were all but another name for interest of money
vested in the land, We are afraid that our Contempo-
rary, learned in Hebrew and Greek as he is, has got a
great deal to learn of England and English society.
Without calling capital a giant monopoly, it is pretty
pipit' that its power is so great that it subdues all other
property to its use and service.

HALF-PAST ONE.

We have a dead calm in the City to the present hour; but
in the funds, commercial affairs, and intelligence, although
money continues at an easy rate, there is not the least specula-
tion undertaken ; consequently we are in a very dull state.
The Torie,s and Whigs are chiefly employed in reading Lord
John's speech at the London Tavern, and upon which there
are various opinions, according to their political principles.
Up to the present hour there as not a feature in the British
Market worth communicating. Consols remain at the leaving
off price of yesterday, 89t for the Account ; Reduced, 89} ;
Three-and a-Half per Cents. Reduced, a shade lower, 97i,

QUARTER TO THREE

Mouey is said to be scarce at 5 to 7 per cent., but it is to be
hoped the pressure arises from a revival of trade in some par-
ticular departments, rather than from the wants of elec-
tioneering .agents. The unfunded debt feels the influence of
th.e demand for money more than Consols.
The rumour circulated yesterday about the President has no
foundation. 'the men picked up off the coast of North Ame-
rica are proved to have belonged to the William Brown.
The influential men in the City are busy with electioneering
matters. Lord John Russell's success, alter the result of the
glorious meeting yesterday, is considered more certain than ever,
notwithstanding the attempts made to cast reflections upon the
character and standing of the immense and highly respectable
assemblage—one of the most gratifying, indeed, that has been
held in the City for a long time, both as respects unanimity
and enthusiasm.

Consols, Account, 89k. No alteration in the Foreign
Funds, and no business whatever doing.

MURDER AT WOOLWICH.—INQUEST.—The
unfortunate man Grace, shot by 111tGarretty, an account of
which appears in another column, died after some hours
suffering on the same day. An inquest was held on his body
last evening at six o'clock, in the Board-room of the Ordnance
Hospital, before Mr. C. J. Carttar, and a Jury of nineteen in-
habitants of the town. The prisOner, JamesM‘Garretty, was
marched from the barracks to the Board-room handcuffed, and
guarded by a body of the Royal Artillery. He is a
man about forty years of age, with small grey eyes, and a
very sullen countenance, and betrayed during the inquest no
symptoms of emotion. From evidence before the jury, it
appeared from three witnesses that M'Garretty was tipsy at
the time, or as he li'mself expressed it, at the time the hand.
cuffs were put on him " maddened by liquor." The declara-
tion of Grace when dying, had been—" That the prisoner
asked him to lend him some money, which he refused, because
he (the prisoner) was tip-y, after he had urged him several
times. The prisoner expressed the utmost repentance, and
said he committed the act in a moment of irritation. Several
officers and soldiers were examined, who gave the prisoner a
general good character for his fifteen years' service. After an
investigation i f several hours, a verdict of " Guilty of wilful
murder" was returned.
TRADE IN DUNDEE.—We have again to re-
cord a very dull state of things here—the transactions in
re
linens, flax, and yar is, being extremely limited. Let-
ters from St. Petersburgh to the 95th. ultimo. x.s., say,
At this moment the is nothing
doing—the buyers
seem to be deferring their operations until thAfresh flax
arrives, and they see how the braak will go : it is not
, the exchange of 33 1,
supposed the price for the nine heads, braak 1841, will
open under Ro. 95."—which
will cost about 321. per ton. f. o. b. At Riga flax wits
1
quiet, ,and it is still the general prices are to be
down after the first shipsare gone opin;ioilthose vessels which
have gone out on chance find no charterers. Consider-
able disappointment is expressed at the non-arrival of
the Britannia steamer, from New York and Halifax,
now a week overdue. It is understood she has on board
many of the spring sales and remittances. Serious fears
are entertained for her safety ; and there is now almost
no hope of hearing of the President.—lVe Herald.
THE CENSUS.—Yesterday the Enumerators in
the various districts gave in their returns to the various Re-
gistrars, by whom they will be forwarded to the Census Com-
missioner. A part of the duty of each Enumerator was to
tabulate and arrange his returns, which
will render the la-
bours of the latter comparatively light, and a pretty correct
idea:of the extent of the population will be obtained in about
a fortnight.
