SOUTHAMPTON, MARCH 7.
By the Washington steam-ship which arrived this
morning we have received tiles of papers to the 21st
ult., from New York, after fifteen days' run. She has
brought seventeen passengers and a small quantity of
specie.
The Washington brings dates from Mexico to the
19th:of January.
A great deal of skirmishing had taken place there,
as well as in California.

GILBERT A. a BECKETT,
DOUGLAS JERROLI).
W. M. TrIACKERAY.

On the 18th November San Jose, then in possession of
a body of 100 Americans, was attacked by 200 Mexicans,
having with them two 6-pounders. After three uniilM
cessful attacks, the Mexicans drew off with a loss of
Majores, their chief, and twenty or thirty men, the
Americans having lost none.
COMMERCIAL NEWS.
(From the .Ncw York Sun, Feb. 19.)
The market still grows easier, and rates are almost
down to the legal standard. General confidence is
fast being restored, and business working into its old
channels.
The rumour that the Rothchilds had proposed to take
the United States loan is contradicted officially at
Washington.
In foreign exchanges for the Washington, there is no:,
very much doing, though there is no dulness or langr‘or
in the market. Sales have generally been made at 1104
to 1101. Some British Government bills have been
offered in market at 1114, but refused at anything over
111. Exchange on London we therefore quote at 110 i
to I I I, and on Paris the same as yesterday.
The news from Europe has had a very favourable
influence upon the money market. Exchange on
England is drooping, and at the close of to-day's ope-
rations only 110 was offered for the best city bills. We
quote sterling at 109 to 110, and francs at sf. 25c. to sf.
27ic.
(From the New Yorh Inquirer of Monday, Feb. 21.)
SaTuanar.—Government and State Stocks were firm
to-day, with moderate sales, whilst the fancy stocks were
rather heavy.
FOrpign Exchange was in limited reqtr.est at 1091 to
110 k on England, and 5.26 k on France.

, meet the views of buyers, about 2,000 bales. were disposed
of. Good middling GulfCotton,74- cents, good middling
upland 7 s cents, middling fair upland 71 cents per lb.
Flour, &c.—Sales of Genesee, Michigan, and Obio,
were made (for home use) at 6,064 to 6,121 dolls., with
some at 6,181 dolls. The market for Western is firm ;
sales of New Orleans were made (part to arrive) at
5,87} to 6 dolls. Corn Meal is dull-2,50 dolls, is
offered for Jersey and 2,624 asked. 9,000 bushels Corn

IALE OF LAMPS-FIFTY PER CENT.
ittllUCTlON.—This is a fact—the cause is an enormous
stock having been purchased from a Lamp koifse retiring from busi-
ness, at fifty-seven per cent. under the cost prices. The whole will
ha cleared out at this enormous deviation from the actual prices,
from the establishment of the METROPOLITAN LIGHT COM-
PANY, 447, West Strand.
The stock consists of a chaste and extremely beautiful selection
if Table Lamps, for oil and candles ; 011 and Candle Chandeliers, a
few Sideboard and Bracket Lamps. Candelabra, and Candieeticks for
Table aid Pianoforte. Tke Oil Lamps areAtted up with the Diamond
turners, and Candle Lamps of the very latest improvement.
An early call, to make the first choice, is recommended, for the
sale eannot last long—the low price will induce all to buy. At one-
half the price every article will be sold.

The objects of this Company are to carry o• mining, agricultural,
and trading operations in the Eastern Archipelago, and the acquiring
and disposing of lands in the Island of Labuan and the parts adjacent
—a region abounding in mineral wealth, most fertile in all the valu-
able tropical prodUctiOne, and very happily situate for the purposes
of commerce.
the Island of Labuan has been formally taken possession of by the
Crown of Great Britain; and, by a treaty with the Sultan of Borneo,
many highly important advantages are permanently secured to this
country. Piracy iu the eastern seas will now be effectually suppreSsed;
and, under the protection of the British flag at Labuan, a new era
as regards those regions, has commenced, which affords the most fa-
vourable opportunity for successfully accomplishing the objects of this
Company.
To those who are at all acquainted with the Indian Archipelago, it
is wholly unnecessary to expatiate on the advantages to be derived
from this undertaking. The important discovery of an abundant sup-
ply of excellent coal on the mainland of Borneo, in the immediate vi-
cinity of Labuan, is a circumstance which of itself would render this
enterprise pregnant with the most beneficial results. A formalgrant
of this coal, extending through a district of about 150 miles, has been
obtained from the Sultan of Borneo, and is, with the approval of her
Majesty's Government, now held by Mr. Wise, with whom arrange-
ments for its working will be made.
The working of the coal mines will form an important feature in
the operations of the Company,
The geographical position of the Borneo coal districts in relation to
our Eastern possessions, and to the steam communications which are
now carried on, and others which are about to be carried on in con-
nexion therewith, is a matter of peculiar interest, and even of na-
tional importance. The Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation
Company, for instance, disburse more than 110,0001. annually for
coal for their steam-vessels, of which sum abont 90,0001. are ex-
pended in coal used to the eastward of the Cape of Good Hope. This
coal. its well as the requisite supplies for the steam•vessels of her
Majesty's irivy, and for these of the Honourable East India Com-
pany on the India and China stations, is at present chiefly furnished
from England, at an average cost exceeding 335. per ton ; so that the
eirperiditure by her Majesty's Government, the Honourable East In-
dia Company. and the Peninsular and Oriental Company for the sin-
gle item of coal, will be considerably reduced as soon as the opera-
tions of She Eastern Archipelago Company are sufficiently matured
to admit of their supplying the several depots which have been esta-
blished at llong-Kong, Singapore, and other places, with coal for the
use of the many British and Foreign ste. m-vessels re-orting to those

The object of this Association is totally to abolish the use of
climbing boys, who, notwithstanding the penalties to which those
employing them are subjected by the Bd and 4th 'Victoria, cap. Pb,
are continually resorted too. This breach of the law is acqaiesced
in
by a large portion of the public, from a conviction of the utter im-
possibility In innumerable cases of cleansing a chimney or flue with
the old machine. For the laudable purpose of furthering the objects
of the law by avoiding all necessity for its infringement, the inge-
nious and effective Ramenear machine has been invented. This
invention consist' of four brushes forming a square head, which
by means of elastic springs contracts or expands, according to
the small or extended space in which the machine moves, thereby
treating an even pressure on all four sides if a chimney. The
reds attached to this head or brush are supplied at intervals with
universal spring joints, capable of turning even a right angle
and the whole is surmeunted with a doable revolving ball, having
also a universal spring joint, which leads the brush with certainty
past every angle, and into every corner, cleansing its mate meet
perfectly. The capabilities of this mealtime are best demenstrated
by tke fact, that it is exclusively used ter tke Govornment and
numerous public offices, while the patronage bestowed by a large
number of the nobility and gentry in continuing their annual con-
tracts to the patentees evidences their sense of its superiority, as well
as of the philanthropic views of the projectors. Detailed prospectuses
may be obtained, and a working model of the machine seen, at the
offices of the solicitor, F, Dolman, Esq., 29, jennyn-street, St.

At Queretaro there was not a quorum of Congress in
attendance. Pena y-Pena has succeeded Anaya as
President.
Rumours were afloat that Mr. Trist had been in con-
ference with the Mexican Commissioners again, and that
certain terms were agreed upon, but nothing authentic is
known of what they were.
Colonel Hays, with 100 Rangers and a few volunteers,
reached Teotihuacan on the 12th January, in pursuit of
Padre Jarauta, and while reposing at a hacienda, with
hcases unsaddled and unbridled, Padre Jarauta came
suddenly upon them with a body of guerillas, and a
severe contest ensued. Eight Mexicans were killed and
left on the field, and the whole body successfully re-
pulsed, the Americans sustaining no injury. Padre
Jarauta was last seen on his horse, severely wounded.
and the animal was afterwards found loose, the blood
running down his sides.
On the 20th to 25th January, Captain Burton was
attacked frequently by an increased Mexican force of
300 men under Penando. Each time they were re-
pulsed with considerable loss, and when the express left
for Mazatlan the fighting was still going on. The Ame-
ricans were invested by three times their number in the
midst of the enemies' country, and with no assistance to
fall back upon.
There had been some skirmishing in the ♦icinity of
Mazatlan. On the 20th January, 160 Americans en.
countered and put a body of over 300 Mexicans to flight,
with a loss of one killed and thirteen wounded.
A letter, dated Vera Cruz, January 24, says:—
" We are in receipt of news from the city of Mexico
to the 19th inst. All was quite at the capital. Peace!
peace! is the cry. It is generally believed that General
Scott and Mr. Trist have succeeded i❑ making a treaty
of peace; nothing is known, for of course all the move-
ments of those high in authority are kept secret. Many
persons of respectability, and some high in authority,
positively state there is no doubt there will be peace in
three months.
" The courier dispatched by the English legation ar-
rived here on Saturday (the 22d), having left Mexico on
the 19th. Almost everybody regards peace as con-
cluded. I have seen a private letter from a high source
entitled to credit, which states that this general impres-
sion is entitled to no credit, and that he cannot see that

PHILADELPHIA, FEB. 20, P.M.—The market for flour

ports.
The certain increase in the consumption of coal in the eastern
seas, from the causes already mentioned, and the opening of other
channels of demand, cannot fail eventually to augment the use of
Borneo coal. The projected steam communication between Singapore
and our Australian colonies—the probable communication by the
same means at no distant period, between the various British settle-
ments to the eastward of the Cape of Good Hope and the west coast
of America—as well as the system of railways slow about to be esta-
blished in India—are events eminently calculated to occasion an
immense consumption of Borneo coal, the more so as it can be sup-
plied at comparatively moderate rates. Samples of the Labuan and
Borneo coal have been brought over to this country by Mr. Wise,
and submitted by her Majesty's Government to a careful examination
and analysis by competent parties, with a most satisfactory result.
The Borneo coal has aloe been pronounced by the Calcutta t sal
Committee, appointed by the Bengal Gevernraent, to be equal to the
best English coal ; and Captain Wallage, in his report on the supplies of
coal obtained front the seam at Labuan, for the use of the Honourable
East India Company's steam-ship Nemesis, dated Sarawak, 10th
June, 1847, observes—" I have no hesitation in stating that the coal
received at Labuan is equal to any English coal I have seen on board
steamers in India, and decidedly better than any coal worked in
India for steam purposes."
The portion of territory contemplated for the first operations of the
Eastern Archipelago Company possesses a climate and soil admir-
ably adapted for the culture of cotton, tobacco, sugar, coffee, rice,
nutmegs, pepper, and other valuable productions, and is most
favourably situate, having the advantage of I abuan, now subject to
British dominion, as a point d'appui ; nor can there be a doubt of
the excellent position of the proposed field of enterprise for an ex-
tensive and lucrative commerce. The proximity of Java, Sumatra,
Siam, Cochin-China, Hainan, Manilla, Celebes, &c., is not only of
great importance in this respect, but also as afording the means of
intreducing with facility from those places Chinese and other cold •
Mats, and labourers to any extent required for the service of the
Company. Labuan itself will form an essential link in the chain of
our eastern settlements, from Penang, .Malacca, and Singapore to
Hong Kong ; and in the district of Sarawak every protection and
encouragement will be granted by Mr. Brooke in furtherance of the
Company's objects. In short, every circumstance justifies the anti-
ci eation that the late proceedings of the British Government relating
to Borneo, if followed up with vigour by the operations of the pre-
sent Company, will change that which has been heretofore a region
of piracy, lawless violence, danger and desolation, into a scene of
busy, peaceful, and beneficial commerce; bringing the advantages of
progressive civilisation to a large and fertile tract of the globe, and
conferring extensive benefits on the commerce and manufactures of
Great Britain. The philanthropist and the statesman, as well as the
merchant, will thus feel interested in this design, which, through the
medium of British enterprise, sanctioned and protected by the wis-
dom and decision of the Government, promises the amelioration of
rho condition of the natives of the Indian Archipelago, among whorl
there exists a disposition most favourable to the development of the
resources of those countries.
The view here taken of the promising character of the undertak-
ing is not hypothetical, but is the result of the arduous personal re-
searches of various individuals, who, in times past, hate been de-
sirous of widening the circle of commerce and civilization, and,
among others more recently, of Mr. Wise, who has for several years
devoted hie time to the closest investigation of the subject. To his
patient and indefatigable perseverance for a long period in calling
the attention of her Majesty's Government to the importance of
Laboan as the site of a British settlement, may be ascribed the fact,
that the protection of our flag is now extended to countries so important
both in a political and commercial point of view.
The Queen has appointed Mr. Brooke Governor and C: mmander-
in-Chlef in and over the Island of Labuan and its dependencies, as
well as her Majesty's Commissioner and Consul-General to the Sultan
and independent chiefs of Borneo. These measures, and the course
of poli-y which they indicate, will materially facilitate and advance
the objects and interests of the Company throughout the Eastern Ar-
chipelago.

fire, attended with considerable destruction of property,
broke out in the extensive range of premises belonging
to Mr. John Allen, a laundress, carrying on business in
Dorset-place, Liverpool-road, Islington. It commenced
in one of the drying-rooms, and was occasioned by a
quantity of clothes falling upon a drying-stove, which
set the place in a blaze. Owing to the easily ignitable
nature of the stock iu trade the flames spread most fear-
fully. The engines of the parish, London Brigade, and
West of England Company were remarkably quick in
arriving—and,towing to the exertions of all parties, the
flames were extinguished, not, however, until that portion
of the premises in which the fire began was burned out,
the ,whole of the goods therein consumed, and the
remainder of the property severely damaged. Unfortu-
nately, a considerable quantity of goods in trust have
been burned, and Mr. Allen is not insured for a single
penny.
Tnn WEATHER.—For nearly the last fortnight
we have experienced most boisterous weather. The rain
has fallen in heavy showers, and the wind at times has
raged very high. We hope, however, the storm has now
passed off. Yesterday (Friday) the weather appeared
to have changed and there is now some prospect of fine
weather, which seemed almost to have deserted us. The
country, in some districts, has been completely soaked;
and in the neighbourhood of Exeter, several places have
remained covered with water, in others the effect of the
powerful showers, the land being quite saturated before,
was to wash away large quantities of the soil. The
storm of Saturday last proved very injurious to the
Plymouth Breakwater. The sea made a heavy breach in
the Breakwater towards the eastern end, near:the beacon,
hundreds of tons of stone having been washed from the
southern, or outer side, to the northern, or inner aide of
the works. Eight cranes were broken down and des-
troyed.—Devonport Independent.
Morter-Mattarr.—The premium on gold at Paris
is about 80 per mille, which, at thelEnglish Mint price of
31. 17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, gives an ex-
change of 25.91 ; and the exchange at Paris of London
at short being 25.65, it follows that gold is 1.01 per
sent. dearer in Paris than in London. By advices from
Harnburgh the price of gold is 437 per mark, which, at
the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 100. per ounce far
standard gold, gives an exchange of 12.11 ; and the
exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being
13.11 t, it follows that gold is 0.34 per cent, dearer in
London than in Hamburgh.
KINSALE ELECTION. KINSALE, MONDAY.—Mr.
Hawes arrived in Kinsale this morning, and proceeded
to wait on the electors of the borough, His canvass
has been most successful. Lord Robert Clinton (a son
of the Duke of Newcastle), who has been introduced,
in a public address, to the constituency, by the late
candidate, Mr. Guinness, is his antagonist. If there be
no bribery there is little doubt of the success of Mr.
Hawes, as a large majority of the electors are liberal,
and it is most cheering to witness the indignation ma-
nifested by a vast number at the conduct of these wise
voted for money at the last election. An:opportanity now
presents itself to the electors to redeem their character,
and save their privilege of sending a representative to
Parliament, for, should there be a repetition of that
disgraceful venality which characterised some of the
electors at the last election, there is little doubt that a
Reformed House of Commons will take from the borough
a privilege which has been so much abused.
BAGGED SCHOOLS.—Last evening the supporters
of the Ragged School in George-street, Lisson-grove,
held their annual general meeting in the Theatre of the
Literary and Scientific Institution, Edward-street,
Portman-square. Lord Ashley, M.P., was in the chair,
supported by the Earl of Harrowby, and most of the
neighbouring clergy. The report stated that the dis-
trict in which the school was situated was inhabited by
a dense and increasing population, living in a state of
destitution. During the short period of ten months
twenty-eight young persons from that district were con-
victed, of whom fourteen were sentenced to various
terms of imprisonment, and the remainder were trans-
ported for seven years. Out of fifty persons only five
attended Divine worship. Since the establishment of
the school there had been a marked improvement in the
behaviour of the children in the vicinity. The average
attendance during the year had been, to the day school,
boys 80, girls 60 ; to the infant school 281, and to Sun-
day evening school 216. The annual subscriptions for
the support of the school amounted to only 90/., and
there was a debt upon the Institution of 100/. On the
motion of the Rev. J. Walpole, seconded by the Earl of
Harrowby, the report was adopted. Several resolutions
were then passed, and thanks having been voted to the
Noble Lord in the chair, the meeting separated.
ALDERMAN GIBBS AND ST. STIIVIIEN, WAL'
BROOK.--A numerously attended meeting of the
parishioners of St. Stephen, Walbrook, was held yes-
terday in the vestry-room, for the purpose, if possible,
of securing a final adjustment of the differences which
have so long existed between the churchwardensGbb (and
other officers) of this parish and Mr. Alderman _ s.
The Rev. Dr. Croly, the rector, was called to the chair,
and Mr. Tyrell, the solicitor, of Guildhall, was present
to watch the proceedings on behalf of Mr. Alderman
Gibbs. After a long discussion, Mr. Harrison at length
moved, " That the suggestion of Mr. Justice Erle be
acceded to, inasfar as the parish agree to pay 5501. to
Flight and Rock, and the like auto 'to Mr. Alderman
Gibbs, towards his costs, upon his assigning the parish
trust property to fourteen new trustees, to be appointed
by the parish. Mr. Wilson having seconded the propo-
sition the rev. chairman put it to the sense of the meet-
ing, and it was carried. A committee was then formed
to carry out the spirit of the resolution, the result to be
reported to a future vestry. The meeting was then
adjourned.
ACCIDENT.—WhiIe a shopkeeper in Richmond-
street was pumping whisky out of a cask at his door,
with the aid of a light, he incautiously placed it so near
the aperture as to set fire to the liquid. On observing
the flame he hastily closed the bug in the hole to ex-
tinguish it, upon which both ends burst out with a loud
report knocking down and seriously injuring a boy who
`was sta.nding• by, and spilling a considerable quantity of
spirits.—Caluknian Mercury.

And by means of the papers, the filets have got wind.
Mr. Bann tad his lawyers, and so rare poor Jenny,
Who now, it appears, has to pay a rare penny.
Two Thousand Five Plundred, besides all expence,S,
Is enough to make Jenny bereft • f her senses.
This minstrel, whose masts has made IS so fond,
Has to pay this amount, having broken her bond ;
Tee, in spite of the Speeches of coansel vehement,
Jenny Lind is declared to have broken agreement.
AKA certainly that is a serious charge.
Which should give a broad hint to the public at large.
I have thought since I keard of this action of BKna,
Of the publ:e agreement of 14CSES and SON.
B MOSES and SON, as 3es all must respond,
Have never been known to dishonour their bond.
In the whole of their promises, no matter what,
They've stuck to their contract, if Jenny has not.
Their Dress coats are proofs that they stick to their terms,
And the whole of their stock this agreement confirms.
Their elegant fashion, and quality, too,
Aro proofs that they keep their agreement in view ;
And an action should 'icier been entered by Bunn,

" General Bustamente, ex-President of the Mexican

dated at Guanajuato on the 24th ult. He says that,
though willing to shed the last drop of bleod in defence
of his country, he has not had the satisfaction of sharin,
in the honourable battles in which his countrymen have
been engaged.
" General Bustamente concluds by saying there are
30,000 valiant men left, who will not remain passive
during the occupation of the Republic, &c. This looks
very well on paper, but wo apprehend will amount to no
more than all the manifestoes of Santa Anna, who drove

THE PRONUNCIA.MENTO OP SAN LUIS POTOSI.
" 1. The state of San Luis Potosi, free, sovereign,
and independent, one of those which compose the
Mexican Confederation, resumes the full use of its
sovereignty.
"2. In consequence the State repudiates the so-called
Government of the union, residing at the city of Quere-
taro, and severs the ties by which it was bound, as it
does not consider it legitimate, and as it has not obeyed
the voice of the people in the war with the United States
of North America.
"3. The Congress of the State, faithful to the will of
its constituents, renews its protest of the Ist of June last,
and will maintain the war with all its force until it suc-
ceeds in having the justice of the republic of Mexico in
the present war recognised and respected.
"4. To this effect, and that tho war may be carried on
with the utmost vigour, all the other States which com-
posed the old confederation are invited to join the
national standard, and to contribute with all their re-
sources according to their wealth and population,
"5. In order that the operations of the war and the
progress of public affairs may not be retarded by this
union, and to give more vigour to the enterprise, there
will be held in this capital, or wherever the majority of
the States should determine, and with the least possible
delay, a convention composed of the Deputies of the
States which may adopt the principles of the State of
San Luis.
"6. This convention, the depository of the power of
the people, will proceed immediately after its installation
to appoint a chief executive, who will serve for the time
and under the conditions which may be prescribed for
him.
" 7. The convention will give its principal attention
to the war, it will provide means either by levying now
contributions or contracting loans in the republic or
abroad, apportioning to every state which may join the
confederation the sacrifice which will have to be made
for the common cause.
"8. The State is expressly authorised to call on the
other States to join it in order Jo create resources to
prosecute the war, to raise troops and to dispose of them
but in no case shall
as the circumstances may require;
it have the power to impose penalties on any person
residing in the State except those sanctioned byithe law.
" 9. This decree will be published with the solemnity
of a national edict, and all the functionaries of the State
will yield it due obedience under an oath,,.thp formula of
.
which will be prescribed by the Gove %.,t, St, and with-
out subscribing to which they cannot lirr• R`'weir employ-

The American detachment, on their way to Chiahunhua,
were encamped at El Passo on the 15th of December
with a fair prospect of another field of Sacramento

[ADvnwrisestENT.]—The efficiency of Holloway's
Pills, in the cure of confirmed Asthma, as instanced in
the case of Mr. Henry Fluke, of Killilea, who had been
afflicted with this most distressing complaint for more
than seven years, during which period be had tried
