WEST INDIES.

CIIBA•—A report era; current nt All.tann, on the 24th
of April, that Lopez was ready to lend there with his
followers. All the male inhabitants were enrolled for
military duty, and 2,000 men kept night and day under
arms.

The Captain-General was fully clive to the exigencies
of his position, and had determined to take the field in
pens' n. Government had takf•ii possession of the four
south side stes,mers for conveyance of troops if necessary.
A man who was tried on a charge of employing pilots
in the Lopez cause Was found guilty and sentenced to be
executed.

HAITI.—A commotion has been occasioned here in
consequence of the desertion and rebellion of Prince
Bobo, who had gone into the interior to raise the
standard of disaffection. He returned to Cape Haytien
with 20 men; he was there joined by 40 additional men,
on which he withdrew and fled to the mountains. It
was supposed the Prince, if caught, would be executed.
Later accounts from Port-au-Prince state that the Em-.
peror Soulogue had issued a proclamation denouncing
Bobo as a rebel.

BRITISH AMERICA.

The Canadian Government are making arrangements
for withdrawing a portion of the troops from Upper
Canada. Only ono garrison, it is said, will remain in
the province, and this at Kingston. A similar course is
to be carried out in Lower Canada, where Quebec is to
be the garrison town.
The Toronto Anti-Slavery Society have issued an ad-
dress denouncing the Fugitive Slave Bill, and making an
appeal o❑ behalf of the coloured refugees arriving in
Canada in a state of destitution.

BELGIUM.
RESIGNATION OF THE MINISTRY.

In consequence of adverse votes in the Belgian
Chamber of Representatives, the Ministry, finding
that it was impeded in its projects for financial re-
forms and in its plans for the execution of great pub-
lic works, resigned en masse on the 17th inst.
The Chamber met at half-past twelve. After
reading the procis verbal of the sitting of the pre-
ceding day, the Minister of the Interior rose to
speak, and in the name of hie colleages made the fol-
lowing declaration :
" The objEct of the project of law under discussion was,
as first drawn up, to procure a sum of about three mil-
lions of francs for the Treasury. The funds were to be

GAUD, General LAURISTON, and several other mili-
tary officers bore testimony to the merits of the
National Guard, and the debate was adjourned.
A special steamer, the Eilaireur, has been sent with
important di.pstches to Grneral GEMEAU. The in-
,-ructions of these dispatches hive been moqved by
the inrrigu,s of Cardinal ANTONELLI wi.h Austria,

Th- Salut Public of Lyons states that it has been

what is called the " Lyons plot" are to be seat for
trial before the second Court-martial of the 61,13
military division.

A supplement to the llfoniteur Algerien of the 15th
states that a conflict had taken place between the
Kabyle tribes, which had been excited to insurrection
by the pretended Chief BARGHELA, who had dared to
advance as far as the plains of Bougia, and the French
troops. 800 BARGHELA advanced on Bougia at the
head of a numerous troop of horse and foot. On the
9th Colonel DE WENGY, with all the disposal forces of
his garrison, about 900 in number, advanced as far as
the Oued Seghir, three hours march from Bought, in
order to cover the retreat of the chiefs who had re-
mained faithful to the French, and who were retiring
on the town with their families and their flocks. In
the morning of the 10th they had all entered the
town. On the morning of the 11th the hostile bands
were observed approaching. The garrison was soon
under arms, and outside the walls arranged in the
most advantageous manner. Colonel DE WENGY im-
mediately advanced to the attack, and a charge of his
cavalry put the Kabyle horsemen to the rout, fifty of
whom were left on the field. In the mean time the
artillery kept up a sharp fire on the groups of in-
fantry, and the French infantry advancing completed
their defeat. Several hundreds of the Kabyle in-
fantry were killed or wounded. The loss of the
French was very trifling. After this defeat Bou
BARGUELA retired towards the head of the valley.
His adherents are said to be much disconcerted at the
bad success of a man who promised them, in the name
of heaven, that they should obtain a complete victory.
The militia of Bougia were under arms during the
combat, and gave proofs of great zeal in guarding
the posts, and in escorting the ammunition to the
field of battle.

TEDDINGTON, the Winner of the DERBY.

The morning was lovely, the course was well crowded,
Though Phcebus was sometimes a little bit clouded,
When thirty-three starters set off for the race,
And we breathless poked out to see which had a place.
But soon there was shouting, the race it was done,
The field was well beaten, the favourite won ;
They may call it good jockeyship, mettle, or luck,
But the Teddington horse beat the Marlborough Buck.
The Derby is always the day to be dressed
ln the height of the fashion—in clothes of the best ;
And for years have the principal leaders of ton
Sported clothing they had of E. MOSES and SON;
Which accounts for the elegant fashions they sport,
Of the very best make and the very best sort.
In the great race of fashion E. MOSES and SON
Have always been favourites—always have won.
They have passed all that started before on the road,
And have left them behind, vainly trying their mode.
They've distanced all others that after them hied,
And their good constitution for years have been tried.
You may try all the tailors in town if you will,
E. MOSES and SON will be favourites still.
The thousands who buy of them clothing complete,
Will not fail to aver that they never were beat.
Then hurrah for the favourites, they who have vron—
The Teddington horse of E. MOSES and SON.

COMMERCIAL IN fELLIGENCE.
NEW YORE, MAY 12.—There has been but little
fluctuation in government and state stocks since our
last issue, and with a good demand the business has
been moderate. •
In the money market the specie shipments have bad
no effect. This bugbear has lost its influence under
the large and steady receipts from California.
In exchange the market is firm, but not active. Ster-
ling goes at 101 to 14; francs 5 10 to 5 07k, with mode-
rate supply.
In freights there is no change to note, and the busi-
ness is small. Cotton is 3-16 d., with engagements of
500 or 600 bales; corn, 4id.; flour, 16d.; dead-weights,
12s. 6d. to 15s. Within a few days there have been en-
gaged to London 800 barrels oil cake, 15. 91; and to
Glasgow 2.200 barrels flour, 25.; 200 bales cotton,
3-16 d.; and corn, sd. A Russian barque engaged a
cargo of flow for Dundee at something over 2,.; two
cargoes of deals from Quetec to London at 44 to 41. 10s.;
and an American barque a cargo of sugar from Bahia to
New Orleans at 12 dots. per ton. To California there is
no change to notice.
MAY 13 —Cotton—The cotton market had been ac-
tive, with an advance in price consequent on the unpro-
pitious weather for the young crop. The upward ten-
dency of +he market was checked by receipt of the unfa-
vourable accounts from Liverpool to April 26. per Europa,
quoting a decline of IL to id. per lb. from our previously
received quotations. 1 hese accounts proving so
much more unfavourable than had been looked
for, caused great disappointment, and a decline
of c. to lc. per lb. was submitted to on the sales made,
on ihureday /and Friday of la t week. On Saturday
there was a better feeling and prices recovered ic. On
Sunday, the Arctic arrived, with four da)a' Liter ac-
counts, and a further decline of td. per lb. in Liverpool;
but these accounts not only failed to produce any fur-
ther decline here, ,but yesterday the market was firm,

DETERMINED SUICIDE. - About two o'clock OD
Saturday afternoon, as one of the Iron Steam-boat qom-
p.any's boats was en its way up the r ver, and when off the
pier near Westminster, a man of gentlemanly appearance,
who was en •board; threw himself head foremost into .the
river. Every exertion was made by the captain of the
vessdl to save the lite of the unfortunate man, but unsuccess-
fully; and it is supposed that. in consequence of his having
thrown himself immediately before the paddle-wheel that
he must have been struck by it, as he did not rise to the
surface.

Air. BINGHAM -said the prisoner's duty to the police
was paramount to his duty to his employer on an oc-
casion like the present. Tho officers must be protected,
and as the blows given were but slight he should com-
mit him for only seven days.

ASSAULT ON A POLICE.CONSTAULE.— William Ede
was placed at the bar betore Mr. Bingham, charged with
creating a disturbance-at,Mr. Mercer's, Grapes Tavern,
Windmill-street, and assaulting a police-constable when
in the execution of his duty.
Emily Underwood, the barmaid, stated that yester-
day morning, about ten o'clock, she was at breakfast
with her mistress in the bar parlour, when she heard a
great disturbance in the private passage. She went out
to know the cause-, when she saw the prisoner and an-
other man trying to force their way into the bar. Her
master, hearing the noise, came down stairs, and tried
to eject them from the house. They. said they would not
go unless they had -some liquor supplied to them..
Be refused to comply with their wishes, and as they
persisted in remaining he sent for a constable, and the
other man then lett, and the priaorer was given in
charge. When in custody the pris.:ner struck the con
tsluble several times and made his nose bleed.
Police-constable. 320 C, said he was caller; to Mer-
cer's house, to take the prisoner into custody. On try-
ing to remove him he struck witness in the face, and
caused his nose to bleed. The prisoner then tried to
a like him on the head with a bottle which he had in his
hand. Witness warded off the blow with his truncheon,
and in doing so the prisoner was struck on the head.
The prisoner said, in defence, that he went into Mr.
Mercer's house for some beer, as it was a house noted
for serving liquor and beer on Sunday mornings; he de-
nied the assault on the constable.

LITERATURE.

THE COMIC HISTORY OF ROME. By the
Author of the" Comic History of England." Illustrated
by John Leech. .No.
This, the third part of the " History of Rome,"
carries us on merrily from the close of the war against
the Volscians to the death of Marcus Manlius. The
number is overflowing with fun, and is replete with
hits at the absurdities and follies of the present day
e. g., in narrating the capture of Veil by Camillus,
our author says—
" Tice King of Veii was offaring a sacrifice in the Tem.
ple of Juno, just as the Romans had completed their
tunnel, and as the soldiers burst like a crop of early
champions through the earth, he saw his fate written in
bold Roman characters. Everything was given to the
conquerors, and it is said that the statue of Juno followed
of its own accord; but the probability is, the statue re-
mained in statu quo, for miraculous instances of going
over to Rome were not in those days numerous."
Mr. A'Beckett, however, mingles much useful in-
struction with his fun, his resume of the laws of the
twelve tables is admirable. The illustrations by
Leech are full of humour; nothing can be more
unctuous in every sense of the word than his vignette
to the eighth chapter entitled " Roman Bull and
Priest of the Period."

SHERIFF'S BOOK-KEEPING.

The vast importance of a proper system of accounts,
in a commercial country like ours, must be self-evi-
dent ; yet, we apprehend, the science, if we may so
term it, of book-keeping has not hitherto received
that attention which its usefulness demands, and
without a thorough knowledge of which the mer-
chant and trader must be in a continual state of un=
certainty and danger as to the exact position of their
affairs. Indeed we entertain little doubt that many
of the cases which come before the Bankrupt Court,
and treated as Efraudulent, arise frequently from
ignorance of a proper system of keeping their ac-
counts. We believe much of the neglect with which
this subject has been treated is to be attributed to the
vague and imperfect treatises which up to this time
have issued from the press, and to the want of a cer-
tain, simple, and concise system of book-keeping.
Mr. Sheriff's cheap, simple, and unpretending work
appears to us eminently calculated to supply this de-
fect, and to achieve the end he professes to have in
view, viz., the production of a treatise "designed for
the use of merchants, clerks, and schools ;" and we
can confidently recommend it to public consideration
as a book of great practical utility.

SCRIVENOR'S SUPPLEMENT TO .RAIL-
WAYS OF THE UNITED KINGDOM. Smith,

Elder, and Co.
It may be remembered that Mr. Scrivenor, the
late Secretary to the members of the Liverpool
Stock Exchange (to whom he dedicates the present
volume), published an excellent work on the Rail-
ways of the United Kingdom in 1849. The compi-
lation now under consideration is strictly supple-
mental to the former, conveying intelligence from
1849 to the present year. It embodies the latest re-
ports from the directors of the several lines, and
includes the latest returns ; all the information on
these and all other essential heads being collected
from official sources. A table of the " Railway Re-
venue and Expenditure for the years 1849 and 1850"
is a noticeable feature in Mr. Scrivenor's new volume,
facilitating, by the novelty and simplicity
,of its con=
struction, the accurate ascertainment of all the cir-
cumstances of any one given line, a valuable mass of
information being thus brought under notice at one
view. Shareholders are thus afforded the opportu-
nity of contrasting, without any complexity of cal,
culation, the working expenses of their own with
those of other lines, and so detecting the existence of
any extravagance, for which the remedy is in their
own hands at the half-yearly meetings. We can
safely recommend a perusal of these 150 pages to
those holders of railway stock who wish to possess a
clear knowledge of the bona fide condition of their
property.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

DONCASTER MEETING.—As a substantial proof of the
energies of Mr. Richard Johnson, the Clerk of the
Course, we have only to point to there being thirty-two
nominations for the Cleveland, and one hundred and one

agreeable as they are uni rccdented.

A letter from St. Potersburgb, 3d. inst., states that

order to complete the land and sea forces.

TURKEY.
A letter from Constantinople, 28th ult., received

bas been established in that city with a capital of
100,000,000 of Turkish piastres (about 25,000,000 of
francs).

ITALY.
In the sitting of the Btb, of the Chamber of Depu-
ties of Turin, the treaty of commerce and naviga-
tion between iitutinia andliollawl was adopted 15y 87

votes to 5. The discussion on the National Bank was
afterwards resumed, but adjourned to the following
day, after a speech of Signor DESPEETIS against the
Bill.

The Official Milan Gazette of the 7th publishes
the regulations for the Free Port of Venice. The
limits are declared to extend from the port of Mala-
mocco to the dyke of Garzina, near Sant 'Erasmo ;
the intermediate line is to be marked by coloured
poles. Within these limits trade is to be perfectly
free, and no customs' duties are to be levied upon any
description of merchandise. There are to be cus-
tom-houses at Treporti, Mazzerbo, Campalto, Fusina,
and San Pietro in Volta, forming a second line around
the first. The intermediate space is to be the circon-
dario doganale, or territory of the customs. Vessels
of all nations are free to enter the ports of Lido and
Malamocco without paying customs' duties. Certain
canals are pointed out, by which merchandise may
be shipped to the main-land. Fishermen's boats may
go to any spot of the mainland, if licensed, and not
laden with goods. Salt, tobacco, nitre, and gun-
powder, being monopolies of the State, are not al-
lowszl to be unshipped within the precincts of the
free port, except in the Custom-house.
