favourable, and in respect to tredo, &c., it is stated that " So
far as our internal relations are concerned, everything is in thS
highest state of prosperity. There has not 'been any very
extensive overtrading thisyear, and the crops of the country
are so abundant, that every engagement between debtor and
period,
the
commercial in a
creditor must eventually be cancelled. The reduced busi-
ness of this season must have a very favourable influence, and
give those who have become involved in previous seasons an
opportunity to reduce their liabilities. These p riodical eon-

country, and particularly this city, have so repeatedly ex-
perienced. A few years of uninterrupted and extensive busi-
ness is sure to lead mans' into embarrassments, from which,
in a large proportion of eases, there is tie redemption
but mope:is-ion ; but when a semen or two of
active business is followed by a relapse similar, to
that experienced, this trade acquires a more healthy
tone, extended credits are reduced, large stocks are
brought down, financial ensbarramments relieved, insolvent
houses suspend, and breathing time is given to those who
were rapidly losing their wind in the pursuit of fortune against
time."
The dreadful fire at Quebec quite • throws the miscellaneous
advices from Canada into the shade, and it is expected that a
public meeting will be called here to consider the best means
of furthering subscriptions.

NOTICE TO MARINERS.
DANGEROUS SUNKEY, 1W KS IN THE

STRAIT 6 OF GIBRALTAR.
Gibraltar, June 10, 1845.
Sir,—l feel it my duty, through you, to draw the at-
tention of masters of vessels, passing the straits, to the
two dangerous sunken rocks, Cahezos, a little to the west
•, and of Tarifa and the Pearl Ruck, one mile s, nth of
Point Carn.,ro, at the entrance of this bay. Vessels
are constantly lost on one or the other of these perilous
rocks, which leads me to think that the n•tice of mer-
chant captains is not sufficiently called to these
dangers. About ten days ago, the French vessel Irma
struck on the Cabezos, and had t, take refuge in this
port, with five feet water i'i her hold, and it aas with
difficulty I could keep her afloat (luring that night, when I
commenced her discharge. In the Gibraltar Ch,onicie,
of 9th in,t, sent you by this conveyance. y, ,ti will per
eeive by a paragr,pn inserted by in,. Exeeheiicy the
(I,,vernibr th,:t the 13: it.sh barque Harper had a nrrto,
escape of being tot,illy lust on the dangerous sunken
rock ca!led tho Pearl. ff Port Carrier°.
It will be satisfactory to the underwriters to know
that in such eases. a here vessels are in distiess at night,
efier the gates of the fortress are eloseo, every facility
is kindly afforded to me, in h iviog access to the kety
coast to convey assistance,. by his Excellency the Gover
tor, as will appear by his letter of Bth inst., of which
transcript is enclosed. I have the honor to be, Sir, your
faithful and obedient servant,

CARISIORNB HOUSE.—The house and grounds on
the banks of the Thames, just beyond Chelsea, once the residence
of the late Lord Cremorne, and since then known to the public by
occasional fetes and exhibitions got up by the late Baron de Berenger,
have been opened for the present season, under a new lessee, and
with a spirit and an enterprise which promise and deserve success.
This place, which is capable of rivaling Vauxhall or ancient
harielagh, has unfortunately been hitherto very badly managed
as a place of public amusement; and as those who went there
under the management of the last-named person—now no more
—seldom or ever found much to be pleased with, the place
fel almost into oblivion, or was, at roost, rarely thought of.
On Monday the season there (if it may be so termed) was
commenced under very favourable auspices. There has been a
judicious outlay of a large sum of money. A ban luetting.room
has been built., an extensive kitchen laid out, an ample store of
those things which attract the lovers of good living provided, hosts
of waiters, and so forth, retained, r rid a sort of semi-dramatic corps
of employis eng4ged under the direction of the celebrated Mr. T.
Matthews, of Drury-lane Theatre, the greatest pantomimist of the
day. These pers-ons, habited as Robin Hood and his merry !nett,
Friar Tuck, Maid Marian, Scathelock, &c., with jocund baud. of
mortice dancers, perform a sort of sylvan interlude in the woods of
the premises. There are dancing, archery, the songs of outlaws,
and the sports of quarter staff. All this is well managed.
Hien
.come rope dancing, the tricks of jugglers, and other such
like pastimes. There is a. Rood orchestra, and an effective band
of musicians. The grounds are very delighttul, the walks and
trees and shrubs verdant and refreshing to " one in smoky cities
pent," and who is willing to breathe a little fresh air at a very smal
expense on the banks of the river. The grounds were well patronised
for air opening day, and the company continued to enjoy the scene
and the variety of amusements for many hours. the interior of
the house has undergont some very judicious alterations, and it is
BOW a commodious place or public amusement welt worthy of
general support.

EAST ivtua MAILS.--SoliTll AMPT, N. JUNI.; 24,
Stx o'CLocc, e Gnat Liverpool has just arrived in the
Docks from Alexandria, and is lando.g the East India and China
snails, which will be forwarded to London by to-night's mall. She
left Alexandria on the 12th instant. This is the first of the
India boats that has not stopped at the Mothtr bank to perform her
quarantine.

1 —reat ste:ern-ship urrived in
Kingstown harbour on Sunday, about two o'clock. The utmost
anxiety prevailed to witness her arrival, as the vessel was expected
on Saturday evening, and her non.arrival gave rise to several ru-
mours, all of which proved happily unfounded. At half.past one
the magnificent outline of the Greet Britain was seen looming on
the horizon, and in half an hour " the living mass," hull, spars,
and rigging, proudly bearing up against a head wind, entered
Kingstown harbour, and anchored at the old jetty, bailed by the
cheers of countless thousands who had assembled to witness the
event. Vast crowds visited the vent].

ATTLNIPT t D SUICIDE BY A LADY.—On
morning, between eight and nine o'clock, a most fortunate dis-
covery was made of an attempted suicide by the lady of
Augustus Mentinero, Esq., residing in Albany-street, Re-
gent's-park. About six weeks since the unfortunate lady
(wile is only twenty years of age) was confined with h:r
first child, and having quitted her bedroom too soon, she
caught a violent cold, which brought on milk fever. On Mon.
day morning she appeared considerably better and quite
tranquil, and asked her attendant to go flown a! airs into the par
lour and request Mr Mentin, to to come se.e•k to her. The
nurse quitted the room alai proceei:to a short distance down thy
stairs. but suspecting wrong she returned and Inutur the Unlo,
tunate lady busily engaged tying a silk handkerchief to the bed-
post, which she had first fastened round her neck, for the purpose
of suspending herself. She was immediately secured.

tr state that the health of the Right Hon. and Learned Genthinan
is test declining. He was lately removed from his residence in
Park-street, Westminster, by the anvice of his medical attendants,
to that of Nlr. Pennell, an immediate relative, in Cumberland•
terrace, Regent's-park. During the whole of yesterday evening
the inquiries in Park-street were incessant, and in answer to them,
up to eleven o'clock, it was stated that he still continued in a
very pyre-riot:a state; numerous persons were then waiting the
return of messengers who had been dispatched to ascertain the
latest state of his health. The reporter at twelve o'clock was in.
formed that no change for the better had taken place, but that, in
fact, he was consinered much worse, and gradually sinking. Dr.
Bright aria Dr. Chambers had visited him several times duritig the
day, and at twelve o'clock Dr. Bright, who has been most unre-
mitting in his attendance during the Learned Gentleman's pro-
tracted illness, was still in attendance upon Wm.—herald.
