was. however. much pleasanter, hut there were
few days upon which her sails could be of any
service.
We copy from the New York Dispatch. the
following summary of the intelligence received.
! The character of the commercial news by
this arrival, is far from cheering. The money
market was even more depressed than at the time
Of the departure Of the Western.
/ The London Morning Chronicle of the 2nd
September remarks:
! :. A short time must now bring things to a
fatal point, and there, indeed, seems little prob
ability of anything occurring 10 give them ia
vorable turn. The weather even is against an
ameliOraton of affairs, and must. on the con-
trary, tend much 10 excite alarm; for although
the crops in the south Of England have no doubt
! been chiefly housed. yet IT is otherwise in the
north of England and Scotland, and the harvest
in Ireland, 10 which this country looks always
with much anxiety, must also be matter of
uncertainty. Although the state of the coun-
/ try is quite deplorable. and how an explosion is
to he prevented is quite beyond our compre-
heuslon."
] Some allowance is. however to be made for
political feeling, the heaviest complaints are
/ found IN the leading Tory journals. Matters

The news from the East is exceedingly in
teresting. The Bey OF Egypt. BY the detection
of the Turkish Admiral, had the fleet of Tur-
Key IN his possession; and by an announce ment
from the Turkish Embassy, it appears that he
refuses to give it up. News was received in
London from Paris, where it was received by
telegraph, that the French officer who was
commissioned to claim tle Turkish fleet, in Ihe
name Of the Five Powers. has received fiat
refusal from Mehemet Ali. unless all his exor-
bHant demands are complied with. and the eN-
