Congress will not probably adjourn before August; but
there are no subjects before it of interest in Europe.
Our Mexican advices contain but little intelligence. A
body of troops had marched to attack Parades and Jar-
nata, who were in rebellion. A large number of Ame-
rican deserters had been incorporated into the Mexican
police force, and proved themselves useful in maintaining-
order.

Fro .n Yucatan, we learn that the army was more than
usually insubordinate, and that in consequence the Indians
had partly recovered their advantage, the Yucateco troops
having been compelled to evacuate Ticul, a town which
they had recovered from the Indians.

Letters from Constantinople state that a Russian fleet

GERMANY AND DENMARK.—We regret to find that
the armistice is broken off. The struggle will therefore
be recommenced, as a•warlike feeling p vades the Frank-

Bth inst. a bill was passed in the Assembly of Connecti-
cut, by which all slavery is for ever abolished in that
state. No law completely abolishing slavery has previ-
ously existed in Connecticut, and there are at present
some eight or ten slaves in the state, who, ,by the provi-
sions of this act, are entitled to a support from their
former masters.

THE CORN CROPS OP POLAND.—The destruction of
property, especially of the growing crops, throughout Po-
land by the late hurricane has been most serious. In the
province of Lublin alone 150 villages have lost all their
crops, cattle have been killed, woods torn up, and houses
levelled with the ground or unroofed. Fears are enter-
tained for the approaching harvest, and a great rise has
suddenly taken place in the price of all sorts of corn and
grain, as well as of other field fruits. It is expected that
this will prevent any large export of wheat.

le Red Indiars of

Yucatan, whose forefathers were massacred by Hernandez
de Cordova, are deliberately reconquering their inherit-
ance. The Spanish race, throughout the whole of the
Mexican territories, has, in point of numerical increase,
long remained stationary, and, indeed, has lately retro-

graded, while the race of red men has been steadily gain-
ing ground. The consequence has been that here—for
the very first time, we believe, in the history of civilisa-
tion—the inferior aboriginal race has survived the con-
quest ; and, after so many generations, is at length found
again making head against its ancient and degenerated
enemy-
