AMERICAN NEWS.

LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY MORNING,
THREE O'CLOCK.

The packet ship England, Captain Waite, Las
just arrived, bringing New York papers to the
19th ult., four days later than those brought
by the Columbia. The Britannia steam-ship,
which sailed from Liverpool 4th October,
arrived at Boston in 14 days. The news brought
by this arrival is important. A tremendous
hurricane had swept along the Southern coast on
the sth and 6th October ; many ships had been
totally lost.

Advices from Vera Cruz to the 6th October
have been received. It was rumoured that the
seat of government was to be transferred from
Mexico to Vera Cruz, and that Santa Anna would
take command in person of the expedition to
Texas, preparations for which are going on
vigorously at Vera Cruz.
The yellow fever still prevailed at Tampico,
the Captain and two seamen of the English brig
Harriet, of Belfast, had died of it.

LATEST FROM CANADA.-It appears there has been
a prodigious excitement produced in Canada by the
measures of Sir Charles Bagot, who is accused of sa-
crificing the interests of the colony, in order to con-
ciliate the Radical party. The Canada papers allege
that the celebrated Edward Gibbon Wakefield is the
Mephistopheles of the new Cabinet, and they conse-
quently assail the Governor with a violence that is
perfectly unparalleled. Nothing can equal the fury
and bitterness with which the Canada editors have
come out against Sir Charles and his Cabinet.
Mexico.—News had reached Tampico that the
Mexicans had captured all crafts belonging to the
Yucatanos, thereby destroyingc, all their commerce.
It was also announced that Santa Anna had pro-
claimed Vera Cruz the seat of government under the
new constitution. The Dictator, for such he is, had
left the capital, and it was not known where he had
gone. _ _ _

- Intelligence had also been received that the "Na-
poleon" was going to throw dice again for an empire.
He will command the expedition against Texas in
person—that is, he will be a calm spectator of events
from his cabin in the iron steamer Guadaloupe, which
is to batter down all the towns and forts of Texas.
The attack by land and sea, it is said, will be made
simultaneously, General Reis commanding the land
forces, and the Dictator the storming regiments. As
soon as the transports, sent to Yucatan, arrive at
Vera Cruz, the " water power" will be dispatched to
Galveston.
MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NEWS.
NEW YORK MONEY MARKET, OCT. 18.

The coming elections are the general subject of
discussion among business men, and as the events in-
dicate a probable result in favour of the existing state
of things, in this State, a better feeling is manifest.
The sales at the Board to-day were large in the
sound stocks, with firm prices. In fancy stock there
was less disposition to buy, and prices drooped—
Harlem fell 1; Long Island h- ; Canton County rose 4.
The paper currency of the country is now so far sub-
verted that a vacuum remains in the channels of busi-
ness, into which specie is rushing with great rapidity.
The influx of a sound currency cannot but brighten
up values, and give an impulse to activity in
trade. We may therefore rationally look forward
to steady improvement in commercial affairs. The
check given by the tariff to business cannot be
permanent, because trade will force its way, in
spite of all restriction, wherever it is profitable. The
British Government is already making rapid strides
towards concentrating the trade of the Western States
into its provinces. The late tariff has thrown a large
portion of the business for which they were contend-
ing into their hands. The only difficulty under which
Canada laboured was impassability of the St. Law-
rence in the winter season. The remedy for this has
been obtained in the late treaty, by which a tract of
land has been ceded to her on which to construct a
railroad communication from Quebec to the eastern
provinces, affording a safe, speedy outlet for the trade
of all the provinces.
