SYRIA.

Extract of a letter from Bey rout, dated Nov. 8, 1841:--
" We regret to say that business is wholly suspended
here, owing to the disturbances in the Lebanon moun-
tains. A civil war is now being carried ,on between
the Druse and Maronite population of a very destructive
and barbarous nature. Much valuable property, as silk,
&c., has been already destroyed, and if some means be
not found to check the fire and devastation which mark
the progress and the path of the Druse conquests and
aggressions, it bids fair to utterly ruin the commercial
resources of this part of Syria, and it is to be feared that
the rebellion will spread to the north of Syria, where
the population has been long disaffected. It is reported
to-day that the Ansarica, who inhabit that mountainous
district of country extending from Tripoli to Latakia,
are now in arms; and it is expected a few days more will
apprise us of some serious commotion in Aleppo and
neighbourhood. The Turkish Government—at best,
supine and venal—seem to look on with indifference
(if, indeed, some one of the Pachas be not the promoter
of the disturbances), and either dare not, or are not, de-
sirous to put an end to such a fearful and ruinous state
of things. It may indeed be their policy to allow the
population, which is much opposed to the Turkish rule
on account of the oppressive nature of the new tariff, to
waste its means and energy in feuds of the nature now
existing, and when their strength shall be exhausted,
they may hope to step forward, penetrate the mountains,
and establish their venal and fanatical rule. They may
succeed, but their success will be the ruin of commerce
and the destruction of the already well-drained resources
'of the country. It cannot but be apparent to all, how
unfit and incapable the Turks are of governing this
country, and we hope the Foreign Powers, who have
assisted and been the chief means of bringing about this
state of things, will again unite and free the country
from the imbecile rule they have wished to establish. It
has been rumoured that the Consuls of some of the
strongest Powers have proposed the return of Ibrahim
Pacha as Viceroy of Syria; we fear anything hall so
fortunate does not await this country. We learn dis-
turbances against the Christians in Damascus had been
manifested, and that Nedgib Pacha had arrested seventy
persons, and put them in prison as the leaders. Alto-
gether the country is in a much worse condition than
we have ever known it."

A STACK MOVED WHOLE BY THE WfiiD.
—A very extraordinary circumstance occurred during
the late severe gales which have prevailed. A n heat
stack, of about 60 quarters, the property of Mr. Whitwell,
at Little Potton Island, which had been placed on a nine-
stone frame, was lifted up by the wind, and carried a di..E-

as when placed on the stones.—Essex Herald.

The Beauty of the Teeth is certainly a subject
of high consideration. Teeming, as is the present age,
with useful and elegant discoveries, there has not ema-
nated from scientific research a snore important auxiliary
of manly grace and female beauty, than
_Rowland's
Odonto, or Pearl Dentifrice. This valuable and elegant
appendage of the Toilet is a preparation from exotics of
the most balsamic nature, and, as a purifier, embellisher,
and rreserver of .the Teeth and Gums, is unequalled by
any Dentifrice of the age. It is patronised by Royalty
and the Nobility, and is strongly recommended by the
most eminent of the faculty.
MR. WAKLEY AND THE CLERGY.--Mr.
Wakley, 111.13.,
held an inquest on Friday last, at Nor-
wood, Middlesex. on the body of au infant found dead
in bed. To this inquiry the Rev. Frank liewson, incum-
bent of Southall, being summoned as a juror, and pro-
bably thinking that the Hon. Coroner was about to try
a point of law with him, attended, but on the Rev. Gen-
tleman expostulating with Mr. Wakloy, he was informed
that he was exempt; the Coroner adding, however, that
of a recast Jury Act, no
till the passing person in the
kingdom, with the exception of the Chief Justice, wa
free from attending as Crowner's jurymen !
The inhabitants of Dover, Folkstone, and ad-
jacent places, have lately been surprised with visits from
some huge monsters of the deep, Three or four times a
whale has been seen " spoutinz! off Dover, and we un-
derstand that in the early part of this week, two or three
whales and two sharks (though we doubt the latter hav-
ing appeared), have been observed off Folkstone, doubt-
less driven upon that coast by the late rough
Canterbury Journal.

MORNING SUN.

13ith Beef and Pork are selling at unpreeederaecily low
prices, and without any prospect of speedy amendment:.
The Cotton crop, it is believed, will far excised that of
last year. The ruling prices are from Bto 10 cents.
Although there has been no recent decline, yet the pre-
sent rate is full as low as it has stood at any period during
the past year.
Freights continue very much depressed. The prices
at the South have kept so low, together with the sickness
in several of the sea ports, that but little Cotton has
reached the market. Ships consequently lay idle for
want of freight.
The banks in the whole country south and west of this
continue to do business without redeeming their notes in
spcie, and there is really as little prospect of a resump-
tion as there was two years ago. Exchanges on all plases
south of this range from three to ten per cent. discount,
and on Florida and Mississippi much more than this.
Congress will assemble in two weeks. The great ques-
tion that agitates the country is the state of the currency.
The President's Message is looked to with great interest.
His hostility to a national bank hitherto has prevented
the establishment of an institution of that description.
The condition of the old United States Bank is one of
complete ruin. The capital of the Bank is all gone—
there is not a dollar left for all the stockholders, and the
bills are selling at 40 per cent. discount. _

. •
The Mutual Insurance Company declared on Saturday,
a dividend of six per cent. on the renewed capital stock,
payable after December 1.
ILLINOIS BONDS.—We learn from the Sangamo Jour-
nal that the State Bonds belonging to our State Bank,
which were deposited with Messrs. Nevins and Towns-
end, of New York, have been returned and placed in the
Bank at Springfield. The most erroneous statements
with regard to these bonds have been made by the Loco
Foco papers.—Chicago American.
The depositors in the Commercial Bank of Buffalo have
received pretty nearly all the assets of the Bank for their
deposits. The injunction on the Bank was served at
Albany and New York on the same day (Monday), but
owing to the absence of Mr. Starr, who had gone to
Jamestown, the injunction was not served at Buffalo un-
til Wednesday—two days afterwards.
The Buffalo paper contradicts all the rumours that the
Chatauque County Bank had suspended ; and the Ro-
chester Democrat denies the story that the Rochester
City Bank bad stopped. The Democrat says the Bank
is doing its accustomed business, and is in a sound
condition.

There is more demand for Exchange on some parts of
the South to-day, but the rate has not changed.
There is a good deal doing in sterling bills to-day,
at 1094 to 1091-, and the Banks draw at 110. On Paris
the rate is 525, and bills abundant. At these rates no
more specie will go.
The weather is so stormy te-day that all out-door bu-
siness is suspended.
The Great Western will take a large amount of bills
to-morrow.

committed for trial.
At Thames-street. Mr. Masson, of the firm of Masson
and noggins with the Captain of the Himalaya emi-
grant ship, bound for New South Wales, waited on the
Magistrate to explain why the poor people were not al-
lowed to go on board in the docks. Mr. Masson said it
had been found necessary to adopt that system on ac-
count of the petty thefts committed by impostors on the
poor emigrants, and the inconvenience caused by women
and children being on board while going down the river.
He further added that he was anxious to re-pay the
money which had been furnished from the office to con-
vey the emigrants to Gravesend.

MISCELLANEOUS.

Kinmel Park, the residence of Lord Dinorben, was
burnt to the ground on Tuesday night, and is now a
heap of ruins, the outside walls only standing. The
library, jewels, papers, and a good deal of furniture were
saved. Fortunately no lives were lost, though several
persons, and more especially Lady Dinorben herself,
-were in imminent danger from the rapidity with which
the flames extended.

We understand that the new day-mail between. Lo-
ndon and Brighton, will be put on the rail Way almost
immediately.
Lord Morpeth, previous to leaving Ireland, transmitted '
to the Commissioners of the Board of Education 1,000/.
to be expended in promoting the system in that country.
In Ireland the Liberal party are displaying great
'energy in making preparations for the October regis-
tries. In many counties Local Associations for that
purpose have been established or revived.
The Commissioners of the Metropolis Roads perse-
vere in not lighting the roads within their jurisdiction.
On Wednesday night, the whole of the metropolis roads
west of Hyde Park-corner were in complete darkness.
The caisson on which the light-house on the Good-
win Sands is to be constructed is completed, but it will
not be, towed to the: North Calepar Head, the place of
its destination, until the spring tide of the October new
moon, about a fortnight hence.
At the Polytechnic Institution a new mode of pattern
printing, by the agency of the galvanic fluid, will be ex-
hibited in a few days. By the process we understand
colours of any form, variety, and extent can be rapidly
and durably impressed upon all kinds of piece goods.

by upwards of 190 voters for the borough, a public meet-
ing took place at the Guildhall, yesterday, "to con-
sider the propriety of memorialising her Most Gracious
Majesty the Queen, praying her Majesty not to suffer the
Parliament to be prorogued until the House of Commons
has adopted some measure calculated effectually to alle-
viate the present alarming distress of the vvorking classes
of the community." The Hall was numerously and re-
spectably filled.
The MAYOR having taken the Chair.„ read the notice
convening the meeting, and expressed his willingness to
receive any proposition.
Captain PHILIPS rose and said, that when he signed

to afford relief to suffering and starving thousands. They
were told that other nations were unwilling to give them
food for clothing, but those who said FO. were unvvilling
to give that right, or he would say that privilege. But
had they not a living witness, Mr. Curtis, who had come
as a delegate from Aineriea, to tell them that there was
great almndace of corn there, and that the exchange
would snake the English people and the people there
mutually happy? Then was it not it,most atrocious pro-
ceeding that the happiness of two nations should be sa-
crificed to support the monopoly of this country. Ht
then read some extracts from a pamphlet written by the
Rev. Baptist Noel, entitled " A Plea fur the Poor."
