MEXICO

The Severn brings advices from Vera Cruz down to the
Ist ultimo. At that time assassinations were sa common
in that city that it was dangerous to be out after dark,
They were committed without ceremony almost upon any
one. A body of volunteers, to reinforce the American
army, had arrived at Vera Cruz a few days previous to,
the departure of the Severn.
Their steam navy was extremely ineffective, and it had
suffered a loss in consequence of the wreck of the Senator
Buchannan, a war or troop steam vessel, off the island of
Lobos. Since the Americans have gained a footing in
the city of Vera Cruz, several American journals have
been established.

They had conducted themselves extremely bad, it ap-
pears, upon the unoffending Mexicans, and had been
guilty of atrocious excesses. It was affirmed by those
who had frequent opportunities of knowing, that a great
want of discipline existed in the American army, and the
consequences were felt accordingly.

A SPORTING I'RIEST

The following advertisement of the sale of the effects of
the late Rev. Thomas Maguire, who lately died of " gout
in the stomach," as the Freeman's Journal says, caught
in his attendance upon the poor, proves that a priest could

the most miserable county of the miserable province of
Connaught, nctwithstanding all the sufferings of 1846-47.

of omitting a handsome wood-cut of a coursing match

Not a year ago a Roman Catholic priest denounced in a
letter to a member of Parliament the hard-hearted selfish-
ness of a gentleman of large fortune, giving as proof of
the charge, that the gentleman in question persisted
in keeping up his hunting stud and kennel of hounds
amid surrounding famine. The charge turned out to
be a lie, as such charges, preferred by such parties,
commonly are, the accused party having long before dis-
missed his stud and destroyed his hounds ; but were it
true, the case is not so strong as that of Father Thomas
Maguire, vouched as we have it by the rev. person's

be difficult to point out half a dozen parties whose
gains in the hey day of the fever have not been
fully balanced by subsequent losses. To some in-
dividual houses the corn trade of the year 1847 has
been fully as disastrous as the cotton trade or the
manufacturing business. It is, however, consola-
tory to us, as a community, that, at least, we have
secured an ample supply of the necessaries of life
in the country, which, added to a favourable har-
vest at home, renders the prospect of food at rea-
sonable prices a matter of certainty in the year
which is before us.

THE CURRENCY.—Thus far our disasters are
attributable to direct causes—the failure of our
potato crop, and the consequent necessity of large
importations of food from abroad, a short crop of

cotton, and the effect of a reduction in our com-
mercial tariff. But a still greater disturbing cause
has exhibited itself in our system of currency,
which has shewn itself incapable of sustaining the
pressure upon it of a period of crisis and unusually
extensive importation. To this cause we have to

POLICE INTELLIGENCE,

BASE COIN.—The quantity of bad money still in cir-
culation is very great. A woman named Sarah Jenkins
was brought before Mr. Rushton on Friday, charged by a
woman named Benson, the keeper of a public-house, with
attempting to pass a bad shilling. The prisoner was re-
manded in the usual way.

CELLAR INFORMATION.—On Tuesday, a woman, Ellen
M'Garrathy, residing in Crosbie-street, was summoned at
the Police-office by Mr. Fresh, for over-crowding her
lodging-house. She had not registered her house under
the provisions of the act. An officer proved that acting
under the instructions of Mr. Fresh, he visited the house
of the defendant on the 25th instant, at ten o'clock in the
evening, and found five beds in the cellar containing 14
persons, and in the rooms above 56, in the whole 70 per-
sons under the one roof. She was fined 20s. and costs.

CHARGE OF EMBEZZLEMENT.—On Wednesday, at the
Police-court, a respectable-looking young man, named
George Henry Blount, was charged by Mr, P. Delamere,
a clerk to Messrs. Tayleur and Co., coal merchants, with
having embezzled about £9O, the property of that firm.
Proof was given of two cases where the prisoner, who was
a collecting clerk to Messrs. Tayleur and Co., had received
meney for his employers, and had not accounted for it.
When called upon for his defence, he said that his aunt
and grandfather had compromised the matter with Mr.
Tayleur, by giving him a bond for the payment of the de-
ficiencies by instalments. He was committed for trial,

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.
(BY EXPRESS.)

THE WEST INDIAN MAIL

The Royal mail steam-ship Severn reached Senthamp.
ton on Sunday night, having made the passage front
Bermuda in the incredibly short time of 13+ days. She
brings 693,418 dollars.

The most important intelligence is from Barbadoes
lative to the West India Bank. The outward mail had
apprised them of the stoppage of the firm of Barton, Irlam,
and Higginson, of Liverpool, with whose affairs the bank
was so deeply involved that they immediately suspended
payments. The bank bad previously suspended payments
in specie for nearly a fortnight, but had continued to
transact business as usual otherwise. The great difficulty
which the West India colonies will have to encounter from
the home failures is the want of a sufficient amount of
specie to pay the labourers, and also, for the cargoes
of lumber and provisions brought in by the Americans, as
the latter were declining to take bills upon England in
the usual form. As respected Barbadoes, however, a very
good feeling prevailed amongst the labourers up to the pe-
riod of the departure of the mail ; for on many of the pro-
perties, on being apprised of the circumstances, they had
voluntarily offered to work for reduced wages, and for a
time taken them out in provisions.
In Jamaica sugar cultivation was nearly at a standstill,
and dry weather had prevailed to an unusual extent. Not
more than 30,000 hogsheads of sugar were expected to-be
shipped during the present year.
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1848-01-04

ARRIVAL OF THE INDIAN. MAIL,

The Overland Mai-reached London yesterday. The
intelligence from the East Indies in particular was ex-
pected with much anxiety, in order to ascertain the full
efitct which the accounts of the commercial failures at
home would produce. It was previously known that
Bombay would be comparatively little affected, and there-
fore the interest was concentrated more immediately on
Calcutta. We have now the result of the intelligence
fram England to the 7th of October, which .embraces the
stoppage of the leading houses connected with India.
From all that has yet transpired, there is no reason
to believe that the influence of these failures had
extended beyond their immediate connexions, for which
full allowance has been given at home in all the calcula-
tions upon the subject. Upon the whole, therefore, as
far as•they go, the accounts were more favourable than
was anticipated. The money market at Calcutta, as a
matter of course, was partially affected in consequence of
the discredit of commercial paper, but the immediate ef-
fect of this state of things would be to force the shipment
of produce, which would be more favourable on this side
of the water. The Company's paper would also be- im-
mediately available for remittance, which is an-advantage
possessed by none of the other colonies.
The intelligence from China is of the most pacific cha-
racter. Accounts are given of a much better state of
feeling at Canton, the factory residents having in a number
of instances perambulated the city, and even gone outside
of the walls without molestation. Trade had also some-
what improved.

OPENING OF THE BRUNSWICK CLUB. THE

OPENING DINNER

For some time back, the public have been on' the tip-

nomy of the charges announced, might have given birth to
a doubt as to the plausibility of the scheme, had not the
name of Mr. Whiteman (whose exertions and perseverance,
as well as excellent catering, are well known) given a guar-
antee of its success. The rooms devoted to this institution

RAILWAY DEPRECIATION,

AT a MEETING, held this day, in the Star Hotel,
Glasgow, of Parties interested in ENGLISH and SCOTCH
RAILWAYS and other JOINT-STOCK PROPERTY,
WILLIAM BROWN 2 Esq• in the Chair,

It teas unanimously Resolved,
lst,—That in the opinion of this Meeting there exists, at
present, an undue depreciation in the value of Railway and
other Share Property, arising from the recent too rapid exten-
sion of the Railway System and the vague apprehension of an
extent of obligations undertaken by various Railway Compa-
nies beyond what prudence would justify.
2d,—That, in order to restore the just confidence of the public,
in such investments, it is important that an Association should
be formed for the purpose of ascertaining and making public,
either directly or through the Shareholders of the respective
Lines, the real facts as to the existing engagements of the
Railway Companies—the period over which their future Calls
can be distributed—and the power which they possess of either
abandoning altogether or postponing the construction of Linea
of Railway in progress or not yet commenced.

3d,—That this Meeting do now form themselves into an As-
sociation for this purpose; that a Committee be appointed
with power to carry out the objects specified in the foregoing
Resolutions ; and that Mr. H. Guthrie Wright, late of the
Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway Company, be requested to act
as Honorary Secretary to the Association.

4th, —That the hearty co-operation of the Railway Boards is
to be expected in thus putting the Public in possession of the
above facts, and in entering into such arrangements as shalt
curtail to the utmost the demand on the Shareholders for fur-
ther Calls ; and that Deputations of the Association ought to
wait upon the Directors for that purpose.
sth,--That this Meeting respectfully suggests to Shareholders
in London, Liverpool, Manchester, and other places, the pro-
priety of forming similar Associations.

- 6th,—That these Resolutions be published in the noes and
such other newspapers as the Committee may direct

CLERICAL INTELLIGENCE.

Dr. Mill has been elected to the vacant Professorship
of Hebrew at Cambridge.

The Queen Dowager-has forwarded to the Rev. Robert
Joynes, rector of Gravesend, the sum of £2O towards the
erection of a new church in the parish of Gravesend.
We have again to record the munificen2e of the Rev.
Dr. Warneford towards the Queen's College, Birming-
ham. He has signified, through the Dean of the Faculty,
his intention to present the noble sum of £2,000 for the
foundation of a professorship in " Pastoral Theology" in
the newly-created Department of Arts.

His Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury is labouring
with his usual energy in his new diocese. On Sunday
week he preached twice (both morning and evening) at
the parish church of Ashford, for the national schools,
when £74 was collected. On Tuesday last his Grace
took the chair at the Canterbury Diocesan Education
Society, having first preached in the cathedral the annual
sermon. And on Wednesday he presided at the annual
meeting of the East Kent Church Missionary Association.
The Shrewsbury Journal, in speaking of the death of
the Rev. Richard Scott, 8.D., of that town, announced
in our obituary of last week, says, that during the last
fifteen years of his life he expended upwards of £13,000
in public improvements alone. Of this sum, at least
£lO,OOO was bestowed in adorning seven of the churches
in Shrewsbury, by the introduction of many costly and
beautiful windows of stained glass, by a timely repair,
and securing from the ravages of time to restoration such
decayed portions of edifices as were required.
