Our readers will find in this days paper, a
report of the proceedings of the House of Depus
ties.
Il will be seen that the subject under discus
sion has been a new canon, empowering the
House OF Bishops to revise their proceedings,
and revoke sentence when it shall have been
manifested to them that they acted errone ously.
It Ito apply to all cases, but had special re-
ference to Bishop Onderdonk, of the diocese OF
New York. If it became law, that gentleman
could apply for revision of the proceedings
he verdict on such application wouldI be flnal'
and would relieve the diocese New York from
the anomalous position she has been in for three
years past.
The subject, however. was laid on the table by
large majority vote, and resolution introduce
ed saying virtually, that it is inexPedient to re-
store him. Thus matters have assumed an en-
tirely new direction, and what the end will be
no one can tell.

GENERAL FLohEs.-General Flores, President
of the republic of Ecuador, with his ald-de
camp and secretary, Colonel Wright, left this
city yesterday afternoon, in the steamer Guadal-
CULVER, for-Havana.
These gentlemen intend to 60 to Venezuela,
where strong party of the friends of General
Flores is waiting for his return. No doubt he
will obtain, one of these days, the end which he
aims at-the liberty of his country and the spread
of civilization among his countrymen, together
with the abolition of all the abuses and supersti-
ton which would ruin the republic of Ecuador
if they were long continued.
Those who are acquainted with General
Flores, speak of him as a man of great talent
and energy.

Thernews received by the steamship Cambria,
from Europe, has had no particular effect upon
our markets, or upon commercial affairs gene
rally.
Tho financial difficulties under which all
classes engaged in trade in England, are now la
boring, seems to be confined, as yet, principally
TO that country, and our merchants and financiers
apprehend very little from them. The Bank Of
England appeared to be doing every thing in its
power to make the pressure as light as possible;
bnt the evils had become so deep rooted, that no
remedy within its power had been sufficient to
arrest the downfall Of many extensive houses
We learn that just previous to the departure of
the Cambria, the Governor of the Bank of Eng
land had solicited an interview with Lord John
Russell, and 1t was the general impression that
the object of the interview was to suggest the
adoption of measures calculated to alleviate the
financial distress prevailing to such an extent
throughout the United Kingdom.
AFFAIRS THE RIVER PLATA.-In the inte-
resting mass of intelligence furnished to US by
our dispatches by the Cambria, we have received
information, which we believe may be relied up
on, by which we learn that the British govern
ment contemplates making another attempt to
arrange the affairs of the River Plate. With a
view to this object we learn that dispatches from
Lord Palmerston to Commodore Sir Thomas
Herbert, at Montevideo, were, at our last ad-
vices, to be conveyed by Her Majesty's steam
sloop Fury, which was waiting at Plymouth to
receive them on board
HThis movement of the British government, it
will be seen, is in perfect harmony and keeping
with its Interior objects and views towards Bra
I'll, such as we ventured few days ago to de-
velope We then noticed the probable inten-
tions OF the British Cabinet, in despatching
Lord Howden from the River Plate to the
Court of Brazil at Rio Janeiro. We advert
ed to the imposing attitude in which the British
Ambassador would appear at the court of Brazil,
and demand in the course of time the renewal
OF a commercial treaty between the two coun.
tries. We also pointed out how Brazil would
perhaps, be influenced In some degree in conse.
quence of her provinces adjoining the River
Plate. This view, which we then developed,
is rather confirmed than otherwise by the addl-
tional items in regard to British movements on
the river Plate We see clearly that England
cannot refrain from operating in both quarters,
and that here she has now as always, a watchful
eye upon her interests, wherever they may be
concerned, or however they may be promoted.
This country cannot be too careful, nor too
cautious in prudential foresight, where she has
so keen @ rival in commercial matters to COM
pete with.

STEAMSHIP WAsHINeroN.-The Washington
will leave Southampton on the oath October, and
not on the 18th, as advertised.
This day of sailing has been adopted for the
purpose of aording greater facilities for cores
pondence. 1t will of course delay her departure
from here until after the middle of November.
We have before alluded to this matter, and
will take the opportunity of repeating what we
then said, that by fixing the departure of their
steamships on intermediate days between the
sailing of the Cunard steamers, the public would
be better served, and the interests of the compa-
ny promoted.
