-Four more British soldiers had attempted 10
escape from the Island, but were arrested on the

The amount received for tolls on all the Canals
of this State during the month Of July is $685.,

The following statement shows the aggregate
amount received for tolls up to the lst OF August
in each year from 1899 to l844 inclusive:

If the receipts thus far are an index for the re-
naming portion, the tolls for the current year will
fall but little short Of TWO AND A IALF MILLION OF
DOLLARS. A glorious harvest indeed to be reaped
from "pauper Canals" Eve. Journal
NEw-YoaK GIVEN Ur-A correspondent Of the
Charleston Is. c. Mercury, writing from the
Hot Springs Va. says: :" 1t is openly said here
that The Democrats of New. York are not doing
their duty. Though largely in the escendent,
they cannot or will not be reused to action. The
defeat Of their favoritc son, and that effected too,
as they (erroncously) believe by Southern infu-
ence, has evidently paralyzed the efforts OF the
party, many of whom will not go TO the polls.
For this reason, and the thorough organization
of the Wings, there is some ground for the belief
that that great State is lost to U.s."
BuENos AYREs.-Wc have seen aprivate letter
received by the Corioanus at this port, dated The
10Th of June. The writer speaks OF Oribes army
in the Banda Oriental as still stationed at the
Basco, twcnty.sx leagues from the city OF Monte
Vidco, which he professes TO hold IN siege.
Browns feet was still lowering off the harbor OF
Monte Video, partially enforcing the blockade.
Gen. Rivera, with the Oriental army, still effects
nothing OF Importance in his predatory warfare };
and as Gen. Paz hcld himself quiet in the city,
matters remain as far from all issue as ever. The
writer supposed that the business Of Monte Video
must be greatly injured by the war.
Gov Ros,s's health was not very good; he had
heen considerably reduced by repeated attacks of
some chronic disease to which he has long been
subject He was not kept from the public Offices,
however The disturbances in the province OF
Correntes were the only interruption 10 the peace
of any part of the Confederation. The writer
sgrees with other accounts IN speaking of a
gradual revival of business. Bost. Daily Adv.
