We have received our files of papers
by our regular express in time to pub
lish the news in this mornings Herald.
The Great Western was to sail for
New York on the 92d ut.
The Emperor Russia, after Il week
stay in England, took his departure on
The Oh uIt., and arrived ut Rotterdam

minions.

1t is announced in the French Jour
nails that the Emperor Of Morocco has
proclaimed holy war against France;
and in conjunction with Abdel Kader,
is mskiny active preparations for inva-
ding the territory claimed by the latter
country. 1t appears from dispatches
just received from AIgiers that actual
hostilllies have already commenced on
the frontiers of Morocco. The des-
patch OF General Lamoreire states that
the attack was made quite suddenly,
and almost Unexpectedly, by the Arabs,
} who were, however, defeated, after
some sharp fighting, leaving upwards
, of fifty Of their men dead on the field.
O'CoNNELL.-The Imprisonment of
O'Connel is too novel in itself, and in
wolves too many great national con-
sideratiuns, not to be turned to account
by that consumate actor. One OF the
results of this incarceration is percep-
tible in the immense increase OF the re-
peal rent, which has suddenly jumped
from hundreds up to thousands per
j week. Last week the amount reached
upwards of three thousand guineas!
a md in all probability it will 60 on
J. increasing. This answers a double
purpose---it shows that the means EN-
l. pIoyed to degrade and punish the peo-
: pies idol, have raised hun still higher
+ IN their esteem, and thus it speaks t.
y the government in the language OF de-
If tiance; while the receipt ol such timely
1t aid is most acceptable to the repeal col
e iers, exhausted and beggared us they
have been oy the overwhelming Cos
" Of the defence.
