AMERICAN PAPERS.

(From Willie's New Orleans Price Current, of Feb.l3.)
COTTON.—The sales of the week have not been
so extensive as noticed in our three last .reports, ow-
ing to the smallness of the stock, and a fewer nuns-.
ber of purchasers in the market, which induces many
to believe that prices will not improve soon, and, if
any alteration, it will be that of a slight decline; in
shipping there is much activity displayed. We
quote Louisiana and .Mississippi, according to the
Liverpool claSsification,. viz. ordinary to,. middling,
8 a cents. ; middling to fair, 84 a 91; fair to good
fair, 9i, a 10; good fair to good, 101 a 104 ; good

NEw YORK, MARuit 7.—Not a little uneasiness
has been excited among the merchants and under-
writers, says the Baltimore American, by the receipt
' of the recent intelligence, that the Buenos Ayrean
Government has declared the whole Court of Brazil
under blockade, and that instructions had been given
to its privateers to act accordingly. Although it was
evident that the decree in question established only
a paper blockade, well grounded fears were never-
theless entertained that, under its authority, the pri-
vateers of Buenos Ayres might do much to harass
and
injure American commerce in that quarter.
We were therefore much gratified on receiving yes-
terday from Washington such information as will at
once dispel any apprehensions which may have been felt
in relation to the blockading decree. From a source
entirely to be relied on, we learn, that as soon as
Col: Forbes, our Charge at Buenos Ayres, was ap-
prised that that Government had declared the coast
of Brazil to be in a state of blockade, he remon-
strated against it, and was officially informed that
'the instructions given to its privateers, to bring in for
adjudication all vessels laden with provisions, and
other articles not contraband, would be revoked, as
far as related to Americans. Accordingly a decree
to that effect was immediately issued\ by the Buenos
Ayrean Government. •

The following is a copy of the Pope's bull ap.
pointil% Bishops in Colombia:—
" BULL OF HIS HOLINESS LEO XI.

"'To the People of our Diocess—Leo, Bishop,
servant of the servants of God, to the beloved chil-
dren who compose the population of the city of Santa
Fe (Bogota), in the West Indies,' health and the
apostolic benediction. Considering that the metro-
politan church of Sante Fe is, in a certain man-
ner, destitute of the consolation of a pastor, and
the person of the beloved son, Fernando Cal-
cedo y Flores, has been accepted, according to
his merits, in virtue of the apostolic authority,
and with the advice of our venerable brethren,
the Cardinals of the Holy Church of Rome,
we appoint him pastor, instituting him Arch-
bishop, and committing to him the government,
care, and administration of the same metropolitan
church of Santa Fe, as well in spiritual as temporal
concerns, fully, according to the import of eur let-
ters, commanding you at the same time to receive
the said Fernando, elected as father and pastor of
yielding your obedience to his
~N-oouunrsseols

u)ltary
•
precepts, that the said Fer-
nando may recognize you as children, and administer
to you as a benevolent father."

ELOPEMENT.—We regret to state that the
family of a wealthy yeoman of Siddlesham, near Chiches-;
ter, has been plunged into great diitress by the elopement
of a young female, not out of ber teens, with a chemist
and druggist, who, it is said, to avoid the bailiffs, who are
in possession of his house, took refuge in the arms of lore !! !
