NEW DIRK, July 9.
Our news schr. Courier and Enquirer boarded
yesterday morning at 9 o'clock, seventy miles
from Sandy Hook, the packet ship Silas Richards,
Capt. Holdrdge. We have received by her our
usual copious supply Of English journas-trom
London to the s2d May, and from Liverpool to
the cath.
Ii does not appear that the King has absolute.
ly consented to creation Of Peers sufficient to
carry the Reform Bill, though it may perhaps be
inferred. This much at least is certain, that eli.
Their such creation will take place or the anti.re.
form Lords will withdraw their opposition.
NJ. Casimir Per,er, has at last fallen victim
to the Cholera. His successor had not yet been
appointed. That disorder was diminishing; al
though it had not ceased in France, it is said to be
making some progress in Italy.
Neither from Belgium Or Portugal is there any
thing important.
Bv the official report of the Cholera in Liver
pool, it will be seen that its ravages there are
very triing.
The London Courier of 22d May says:-"Th
Reformcrs have been agreeablJ disappointed at
the mid turn which the debate took last night in
the House of Lords. and it's believed that the
secessions will be sufficiently numerous to Sc
cure the passing of the Reform Bill without
new creation of PEERS Earl Grey, however,
must he on his guard; he has to deal with old
politicians, who never slumber, aud who are
ready to take advantage Of any defect Of strae.

In addition to the calamity with which France
=, IL. l.A nf -
appears that The bghtins winds of March and
April have, in the southern departments, almost
completely DESTROYED the prospect for the pre-.
sent year. Of the usual supply Of raw silk, the
worms and the mulberry trees having both suffered
severely. On the other hand, the external COM
merce, and particularly the carrying trade, are
generally spoken of as decidedly on the increase.
At the port Of MarseilIes, it appears that the
number Of ships which had entered during the
month of April last, was lis greater than in
April 1891. and that the ships which had cleared
out exceeded those Of the corresponding .month
OF last year by 68. Six Of the supernumerary
arrivals were from the United States and nine
from Martinique and Gusdaloupe, but the chief
increase vas in the trade with Nice and Genoa.
Nor was the increase confined to the month Of
April. 1t had begun in January, and had gradu-
ally advanced in February and March until it
reached the numbers have mentioned for April.
The commerce Of Havre ton has beer making cor
responding progress. As compared with the tive
first months of 1881. the entries and clearances
were considerably increased in January and Fe-
bruary, 1852. For March and April the compa-
rateive staten ent stand, as folIoWs:-18S1. Is
ships, $40 tons. sol seamen; 1852, So ships,
9,6-S tons. 498 seamen.
The Gazetta di Firenza If the 9th inst. con-
tains an announcement of the death on the even
ing before of the Prince Borghese. the brotherin-
| law Of Napoleon, during whose reign the Prince
| held tor some time the important station OF CO.
vernon OF the TraDsal pine Department OF France.
| The Duke de Rechstadt who had been seriously
indisposed IL now reported to be IN state of con-
| vaescence. By the last accounts from Vienna,
| the Emperor Of Austria was about to set out on
a visit to the Italian provinces OF his empire du-
ring which it was said that Prince Metternich
was to retire to the country to enjoy temporary
| vacation from the affairs of state.
The French government | see are busiy ad-
vertlsing for claimants for the promised pension
of 500 francs per annum to the conquerers OF the
RastilIe. 1t is not impossible that some Of the
individuals to whom this reward is adjudged may
be living in retirement on your side Of the Allan
tic, and that in their old age they may obtain a
piece of intelligence which will doubtless be gra-
uIvlng 10 hem through your "lueiy CTCu'a'eu
columns. 1t may be useful to say to them that
their claims must be accompanied by documen-
tary evidence.
On the day after the death Of NJ. Casimir Pc.
rler, his elder brother NJ. Augustin Perier, was
raised to the dignity Of the Peerage, and it is now
understood that he is about to replace the Count
de Bondj as project Of the department of the
Seine The opposition journals contend. howev-
er, that the ordinance Of creation is illegal, mas
much as it does not specify the particular catego.
ry under which by the late law on the Peerage NJ.
Augustin Perier is qualified for that dignity,
seeing that it aludes only in general terms 10 the
services he has rendered to the state. 1t is not
impossible that on this point question will be
raised when NJ. Augustin. Perier comes TO take
his seat in the Chamber Of Peers, in the mean
time it is premature and IN bad taste to agitate
matter the discussion of which can be attended
with no benegcia result.
