THE AMERICAN MAILS.-LIVERPOOL, Thursday.—The
United States Mail steam-ship Ericsson, Captain Low-

horse-power as the other ocean steamer, her arrival is
not looked for before to-morrow. The Royal Mail
steamer Persia, Captain Judkins with advices from
New York to the 14th inst., will probably arrive as
soon as the Ericcson. The unard Royal Mail steam•
ship Niagara, Captain J. Leitch, will sail on Saturday
forenoon for Boston and Halifax, with mails and pas-
sengers. Letters require to be posted in Liverpool be-
fore
