' departure of its conqueror. Still, notwithstanding the
adverse rumours which :appear to have been subse-
quently in circulation at Kurrachec, this conflict
against the Booghtees has proved the end of all the
anxieties hitherto experienced in that direction. Peace
in Sinde, as well as elsewhere, is preparing the way
for the new Governor-General. This must be to
Lord DALHOUSIE a source of no inconsiderable gra-
tification, though it must be remembered by the
Noble Earl that the more general the quietude of
Hindostan, on his reaching his official residence at
Calcutta, the greater will be his individual responsi-
bilities for its maintenance.

The debate in the House of Commons on the ap-
pointment of the Committee moved for by the
Chancellor of the Exchequer, has been brought to a
conclusion. The House having negatived by a large
majority the demand for an adjournment, and the
amendment having been withdrawn, the original
motion has heen carried without a division. The
great authorities appeared to have reserved their
strength for last night, two ex-Chancellors of the
Exchequer (Mr. F. T. BARING and Mr. HERRIES),
and the present and the late Premier, participated in
the discussion, the last word having been ac-
corded to Sir ROBERT PEEL, the legislative author
of the Bill of 1844, although it is well known that
Mr. JONES LOYD is entitled to credit or discredit as
its real parent. The extensive inquiries to which we
have already alluded are accordingly to be proceeded
with, and the investigation will probably be con-
tinued, not only for the remainder of the present
session, but during the entire existence of the present
Parliament. The manufacturing, commercial, and
trading interests must still remain in that state of
doubt and incertitude that is so deeply injurious,
and every mercantile speculation, that in a sounder
state of affairs would be perfectly legitimate, must
degenerate into mere gambling, from which large
profits may be derived or inevitable ruin entailed on
the party entering into it. But all this must be
encountered that the House may not be subjected to

SOUTHAMPTON, FRIDAY NIGHT.

The Washington steam-ship, Captain Hewitt, ar
rived in Cowes roads about one o'clock this afternoons
after a fine run of fifteen days from New York, which
place she left on the 18th. The passengers for Eng-
land were transferred to the Ruby, a small steamer
hired by the Ocean Steam Navigation Company, and,
with the mails, dispatched to Southamp' on. The
Washington then weighed for Bremen.
By this arrival we are put into possession of New
York papers tc the 18th ult. inclusive, two days later
than those received yesterday via Liverpool.
The Washington brings 30,0001. in specie, and 42
passengers.

Further important and interesting news had arrived
at New York from the seat of war. Advices had
been received from Vera Crua to the 6th October, and
Mexico city to the 2d.

It appears that open and undisguised hostilities
had broken out between Santa Anna and General
Paredes. A manifesto had been published by the
latter, in which the ex-President is denounced u
an enemy to the Mexican people and Mexican
nationality.
A telegraphic dispatch had been received at New
York from New Orleans, stating that news had been
received from Vera Cruz to the 6th ult.

Two engagements had taken place with the enemy
near Puebla, in which the Mexicans lost 100 men and
the Americans 16.

Santa Anna was at Tepacan as late as the 26th o
October.

A sort of civil war had broken out amongst the
guerillas, and a severe battle had taken place between
the clans of Jaranta and Canatozo. Thirty lives
were lost.

The New York Courier, in its leading article,
says the disappearance of coin by each successive
steamer and packet to England is alarming—need-
lessly to a great extent—the mercantile community,
occasioning more or less tightness in the money
market.

The cotton market was again lower, with a re-
duction of from one-third to one quarter cent per lb.
The demand was moderate. The sales for the 15tb,
16th, and 17th ult., amounted to 8,000 bales.
The receipts of flour had been heavy, which had a
tendency to depress the market. Wheat remained
inactive.

A messenger had been dispatched from Washing-
ton to General Scott, supposed to be the bearer of
instructions against further overtures for peace. The
near conclusion of the war, therefore, does not seem
probable.
The stock market was dull and declidng. The
exports of gold to England, no doubt, tended much
to cause the depression. United States' Treasury
notes had fallen to par, and some private sales had
been made below par. The Burgundy, for Havre,
was to leave on the 18th, with 80,000 dolls. in silver.

Exchange on England was firm at 10 per cen
with few sellers.

The New York Sun says :—" Wednesday, the
17th, was one of the gloomiest days witnessed in the
New York Morey Market since the last three years.
Nearly all the banks had ceased to advance loans, and
commercial paper of good standing was disposed of to
private bankers at the rate of 12 per cent. per annum.
Everything is falling in price. The rapid and exten-
sive withdrawal of the precious metals to England
was almost the only topic of discussion to-day. It
appears that two millions of dollars, or as near as
possible, is the amount of coin exported from New
York and Boston since the beginning of the revulsion
in England."
The New York papers contain the whole of
General Scott's dispatches relative to his recent
achievements in Mexico. They are very lengthy,
and embrace interesting accounts of the whole of
the battles.
