residents, as well as gratifying to those Offering the
protection indeed, tor some time the state OF
things was so unsettled, that It was aPprehendea
that some Intervention might become necessary for
the efiectual protection OF the lives and property OF
our citizens, who are nearly 500 IN number, not
including the crews of whale shlI and whose In
terests cover some milliens OF dollars AS soon as
il was expedent to leave Oahu, the Boston pro-
cceded TO the southwark and being unable 10 ietch
the MaIquesas, touched again at Iahiu. Inc un-
settled state OF this island as well as frequent DIM
cultles with the crews OF whalers, made her visits
highly desirable.
The engagements of most of her crew being now
on the eve OF expiring, precuded a further stay In
the Pacific, and leaving the west coast unvlslted,
she took her departure from Tahiti, tor Cape Horn,
on her homeward bound passage. Notwithstanding
adverse gales, she arrived in Rio in SO days She
remained in that port 10 days, and thence sailed for
the United States Out OF the last eleven months,
her sailing Is upwards Of fifty thousand miles.
We learn by the above arrival, that the u. s. fri
gaze Columbia was at Rio, June 2S-all well.
H. B. NJ ship Vindictive, and the French rigate
Bossoule, were at Tahiti, April IL.
LATER FROM BERMUDA-By the arrival of the fast
sailing schooner Currency, CAPTAIN Moore, we have
received full files of the Royal Gazette to the Both
ult. inclusive. The Gazette of the 18th says;-
We will not have any more Of the Royal Mail
Steamers here for another month, the Severn and
Trent being the first under the new route. The for
mer vessel, as we have before stated proceeded
hence to Nassau, and from thence to Havana, King
ston, in Jamaica, Jacmel, IN Haytl, 81, Juan, In
Porto Rico, and back to st. Thomas, where she Is
to arrive In 29s days from the period OF her starting
thence.
Should the steamer from St. Thomas, on arriving
at Bermuda, not meet the steamer from Havana, she
will coal complete, and after waiting seven days
proceed toFalmouh but should the Mexican steam
er arrive at Bermuda, after OBTAINING this number
seven steamer so long to prevent her reaching ia
malca in time, by the way OF Havana, the will, al
ter delivering the home mails to the Mexican steam
er, proceed direct to Jamaica, as to keep her APP
pointed time.
Ii is calculated that 100 900 miles of seaming, and
ESQ 600 expense will be annually saved to the CON-
pany by the new arrangement. i he lessened amount
Of work will be very important to the company, says
our London correspondent, in letter received VIA
st. Thomas, by the Severn, as II will relieve them
from the necessity of replacing the Medina, Isis, and
Solway" The shares on which EGO has been paid
up, are down as low as Ell.
The new tables of route, reduced scales of passen.
gers, &C., can be seen at office. The price of
passage from Bermuda to Southampton or Falmouth
is E40 after, and EDS forward cabin: From Bermu:
da TO Nassau $40, to Jamaica $l20, exclusive of
wine, porter, &c.
steamer will leave st. Thomas, for Fayal and
Falmouth every thirty days. Should the weather
prevent communication with Fayal whenthe steam
reaches that Island, she must extend her stoppage
there till she can obtain coal sufficient TO ensure
reaching Falmouth under steam but it there be sui
icient coal on board she may omit altogether calling
at Fayai.
The French steam frigate Conner arrived at Do
minica on the 9th inst On coming to anchor, says
the " Colonist,'' she hoisted an English ensign at
the fore-topmast head, and fired salute OF Il guns,
Mane Bruce. The Conner then fired Is guns as a
salute to His Honor the President, which was like
wise Immediately returned The q is employed in
carrying Government Commissioners through the
British Islands in search OF Information relative to
the working OF the Royal Mail Steam Packets.
His EXcellency the Governor recommends estab.
fishing annual sessions of the legislature instead of
the present mode of meeting quarterly.
In Grenada, question OF privilege, arising out OF
the arrest tor debt OF two OF the members OF the
House of Assembly, and refusal on the part OF the
House to proceed TO business, until the question was
settled, has led to dissolution of the Assembly.
We give some particulars. The election of new E.
representatives. was going on at the latest dates, and
there every probability that majority OF those
members no carried the privilege question, will
be returned, and is believed that second dlssou-
ton will be the consequence.
The immigrant ship FAIRY Queen. arrived at
Trinidad, on the 18th ultmo, from ST Helena, with
1876 Captured Africans on board. That frghtful dis
ease, the small pox, broke out amongthe passengers
their way OUT and OF sixteen cases. eight had ter
minated fatally. The authorities OF Trinidad were
excrting themselves to prevent the disease from
tending 10 the shore.
The following letter from Capt. Allan, of the
mail steamer "TeWot," cOrrects the false reports
that have been in circulation Injurious to their
credit

LATER FROM SOUTH AMKRICA.-3y the arrival Of
the ship Roanoke and brig Saldana, at Baltimore,
from Rio Janeiro, the Baltimore American receiv-
ed the following letters from Montevideo and
Buenos Ayres:-
MoNTKvIDEo, June 6, 1S43
take leave to inform you that very severe gale

aviog parted both chain ables-he barque Hobert,
of Cohasset with 1900 bbIs. flour on board, just ar

The u. S. ship John Adams, al anchor near this
port parted two OF her chains during the gale. The
S. schooner Enterprise arrived yesterday from
Rio Janero IN a eaky condition. and reported the
gale as exceedingly heavy off the coast. She was
obliged to throw some of her guns overheard
much fear that great damage has been sustained on
the coast not yet known.

ship masters bound direct to Buenos Ayres that the
pilot boat which formerly crulsed in the vicinity OF
Maladonado for inward bound ships, has been with.
