The intelligence froT;St.lio;itig; received in Paris comes
down to the latter end of August. A serious conflict had
arisen between the two legislative chambers of that republic
on a question of supplies. The Chamber of Representatives
vindicated, in virtue of the 57th article of the constitution,
which vests in it the right of initiative in all matters con-
nected with taxes, the exclusive privilege of framing the
customs laws. The Senate, on the other hand, claimed that
right for the executive, in virtue of another article of the
constitution, which confers on the President the power of
making commercial as well as political treaties. The ques-
tion was the more important, as almost the entire revenues
of Hayti accrue from customs duties. The sainflict was still
pending at the departure of the last packet from Port-au-
.Prince.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE AND

MONEY MARKET.

WEDNESDAY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
Sydney papers to the 7th of July have arrived, from which
we make the following extract:.---"The Upper Hunter is in-
fested by a gang of armed bushrangers, and who are supposed
to be the same, party that robbed the drays of Richard Jones.
Intelligence has been received in Sydney that the miscieants
have pillaged the house of Mr. Thmnpson, at Inverman, car-
rying off everything valuable, after having threatened the
lives of the inmates."
By the arrival of the Abercrombv we have received
Hobart Town papers to the 26th of June. We annex ex-
tracts :

"Gangs of bushrangers are still out committing not alone
acts ,of plunder, but embruing their hands in blood. The
government offers the most liberal rewards for their capture.
"The only information we have been able to glean relative
to the Amelia Thompson is, that there occurred seven cases
of small pox, three of which terminated fatally, and 168 cases
of tphns tever, 30 of which proved fatal. There has beets no
fresh case of small pox since the 20th of April; 12 cases of
typhus remain. It is expected that her mail, atter under-
going fumigation, will be brought up and distributed to-day.
"About 800 emigrants have arrived at Sydney."
The Australian of the 22d of June states "that-the outrages
of the aboriginal natives in the southern districts have at
length awakened the graziers in the neighbourhood to the
situation in which their servants, and their flocks and herds
are placed by the aggressions of the blacks; in consequence
of which, the principal persons having stations in the dis-
turbed districts have unanimously signed a petition, to ba pre-
sented to his excellency and the Executive Council. The
petition states, That your memorialists have learned with
feelings of regret and alarm, that certain tribes on the road
to, and in the neighbourhood of Port Phillip have lately as-
sumed a hostile attitude towards the settlers, and have corn-
rnittrd many murders and other outrages upon. them: that
they are assembled in large numbers, armed, and attacking
persons unprotected, so that they have been obliged to aban-
don their stations, leaving their flocks and herds at the mercy
of the hostile tribes ; and the intercourse by laud is in immi-
nent danger."

fhe great scarcity of foreign intelligence which prevails to
the present hour, causes both the Foreign and British mar-

prevailed during the course of yesterday with respect to the
change of ministry, have died away this morning.

SPORTING ITELLIGENCE.

MANCHESTER, TUESDAY EVENING.

THE DERBY —Several engagements have been made upon
this important event, since our quotations of Friday last;
