UNHAPPY OCCURRENCE.

killed by the unexpected discharge OF a

Of North Carolina. now lying at Fly Mar

he was a stranger in the city, requested
permission to sleep in The sails OF The YES

sleep in the cabin with his little son. he

his companion and heavy charge Of

that some person from New'London has

Since the settling day, the scarcity OF mo-
ney stock has been very considerable. and
as the transfer books of Consols shut for
the dividend next week, the demand tor
them has contributed materially to support
the prices.
To-day was holiday at the Bank
and consequently no business was done for
money, circumstance of which the specu-
lators for a fall availed themselves, and
sold largely, and thereby lowered the
price from 66}. the first quotation in the
morning, to 66t, but rs some purchasers
appeared later in the day. who bought
freely, the market recovered 20 66!, which
was the closing price of the day Exche-
quer Bills continue at discount OF two or
three shillings, but this isnot surprising, as
they only pay an interest OF 8 per cent,
while the funds at the present prices, yield
considerably more. Bank Stock has in
some measure recovered lis depression, a

A letter from Malta, dated April eth
communicates some alarming particulars
relative to the Plague, which il was feared
would be introduced into some OF the neigh
boring islands. A small vessel, last from
Su.a, the crew consisting oniy of the Mas
ter and FIVE other persons, put into the port
of Marsaserocco, on the 2sth March. Two
of the crew who were boys, sickened and
died ON the voyage; the three others, after
their arrival died of disorder evidently
resembling the plague. Every precaution
was taken to prevent the communication
of the infecton-the bedding and clothes
of the sailors were burnt, and even the yes
sci in which they had arrived.
An obliging friend has favored Us with the
following letter dated, Liverpool, May
3lst, 1919.
Cotton continues fully as low in price as
as It has been al any period since its depres-
sion; the average price of $500 bags Up
lands sold last week at I2id, and 78O bales
New-Orleans rather below l3d; besides
which 800 bales New-Oreans were sold
by auction at lIid,a l2id, and $50 bales
ordinary Surats at the low price OF sid Cd
duty paid. Sea Islands are dull Of sale at
former prices.
There has been a regular and rather ex-
tensive demand Tor Cotton, principally from
the spinners, but partly from spectators
and exporters to the continent of Europe;
such has. however, been the great accumu-
laton Of the stock, and the scarcity OF mo-
ney, occasioned by the enormous and I'M
precedented losses in every branch OF trade
that has unavoida5ly occurred, that Cot
ton has fallen to price which has given
the buyers confidence 10 purchase Oh an
extensive scale. Should the imports mate
rally diminish, we may have some mode
rate advance of price, and this, we think
it probable, will take place; but with the
exception of the spinning business, the trade
in Cotton Goods is much depressed and on
The subject OF prices we may iar'her
remark, that there now seems less surprise
that Cotton should bear its present price,
than that i should ever have attained the
extravagant prices of last year.

The Aurora. of Tuesday last, contains
some interesting intelligence from Vene-

The Congress OF Venezuela was in ses-

fore them.
The project of Constitution, presented
by General Bolivar, had been under con-
sderatiun and after short debate poet-
poned.

and enlarged political views, is the Vice
President of the Executive Government,

1t seems the Amelia Island subject had
been bru't into view III the Congress OF We
nezuela, nd some resolutions proposed or
adopted (which we are not certan) after
some animated debate and deliberations -
three distinct propositions were embraced
in these resolutions of which We cannot
give the substance as they were hastily anu
orally related To US.
"The first was a declaration of the right
OF every people OPT ressed by theirruer, or
coRgIerOrS, or tyrants, 10 shake of tier

"The others relate to some affairs OF

1t seems, however, that their plans par
take in some things of the fcdpraliye char
