Philadelphia. May 1S.-We learn that person
employed as runner in the United States Bank.
was detected last week in defraudng that insitu-
ton to the amount of two thousand dollars. His
measures were taken so badly that the money was
in two one thousand dollar notes Of Mr.. Gerard's
issuing. Those he had passed, were soon discov-
cred at the counter of one Of the city banks where
they were brought to be changed or deposited by
persons who had received them, without suspicion
of the manner in which they had been obtained.
The account given by the defaulter. of his manner
of obtaining the money. was. that he found it upon
the floor Of the Banking Hall. We learn that the
unhappy man is now in prison. to await his trial.

British Government, concerning the Colonial
Trade, were about to be resumed. The British

subject; and, if the disposition protested in MIR

US, be really entertained, which we are not dispo.

The Dublin Evening Post, in remarkng on the
late defeat of the Catholic Emancipation Bill, in
the British House of Commons, says of the warm
debate which preceded it-s In fact, it is under
stood, that the late struggle in the House was a
struggle between Mr.. Peel and Mr.. Canning, and
that, had the majority decided to entertain the
question, Mr. Peel would have resigned" The
Courier at this passage, although it does not
deny its correctness Late intelligence seems to
confirm it, or, at least give room to believe it to
have been pretty near the truth. Mr.. Peel was too
proud to serve; and the Catholic Bill was probably
made, as it had been on former occasion, means
of trying conclusions-a party question to decide
between the two. The resignation of the several
Ministers whose names have been announced. is
doubtless tobe placed to the account of their differ
ence from Mr.. Canning IL Of course. from the King)
on the Catholic question. Their retirement, there
fore, may be considered as favorable on the whole,
to liberal principles We take it for granted that
Mr.. Haskisson will if he choose, have seat in the
new Cabinet which Mr.. Canning has to form: and
it seems probable that ne should take the station
from which Mr.. Canning has himself been trans
ferred.-.Nat. Intel.

letter from Paris states that Spain still per.
sists in her folly with regard to projects for nva
ding South America, and it is asserted that the
Envoy Extraordinary has been commanded to
make known to the British and French govern
ments that it is the intention of the cabinet of Ma
drid to send an expedition against Mexico, to es-
ablish the infant Francisco de Paula as sovereign.
It was justly doubted whether the English and
French cabinets would concur in the measure.

Mary Livingston, arrived last evening from SaT
Juan, states, that the different provinces in Cen
trail America we're in state of anarchy and civil
war. Business of all kinds was at stand; sale.
could not be effected either for cash or produce
No confidence whatever existed among the citi
zens. Agriculture was neglected /; by advccs from
the indigo districts the crop of this article would
fall short 2-5ds of an average crop; the whole ex
port of the republic is computed at $4,000 lbs. foI
the present year. The revolutonists were rapid
lv destroying the cattle. Hides, &c. which had
hitherto formed an important item of export were
daily becoming scarce. The many foreigners who
had entered into mining speculations find no pros
pect of realizing their golden Dreams and many
that came to the country in afluence, are now re
,luced to penury and want. The province o.
Nicaragua was involved in serious and caamitous
war. The cities of Leon and Grenada had made
war upon the cities of Nicaragua and Minagua, the
latter city was surrounded by troops of the former
cities and was hourly expected to surrender. The
city of Messiah had been plundered by the con
tending parties. Various reasons were alleged az
the cause of these troubles, viz. that the President
wished to change the form Of the government from
federal to central but the most plausible rea
son is the extreme ignorance of the people, thei
vague ideas of liberty, and the animosity existing
among the colored people (who compose seven
,eighths Of the population against the whites, wit
