arrived early yesterday morning We have recev-
ed advlces by her from Havre five days later

days later than those brought by the Hbernia,
which left Liverpool on the 9Th inst. The United
States sailed on the evening of the 18th inst.
The News Boy boarded the United States off
Rockaway, 10 miles E. S. Z. of the Hook, fifteen
minutes past seven o'clock. Captain Hackstaff
stopped his vessel to give us our papers, and we
thank him for this favor to our news collector
The News Boy made the quickest run on record to
the city.
The United States brings one hundred and twelve
passengers, and has large and valuable cargo
of five hundred tons of measurement goods.
Paris remained perfectly quiescent, although
vague rumors OF intended outbreaks were still
prevalent The measures of General Cavaignac
were very declslve-he declared that the siege
should not be raised until tranquility was perfectly
assured. Arrests of parties supposed to be impli-
Gated in the disturbances OF the 23d and oath
of June. were taking place daily, and the
search for arms still continued. The num-
Der of prisoners already in the power of the GO
vemment was said to amount to 1900 or 1900,
and the executive is much perpexed what to do
number was deemed impossible of accomplish
ment, from the vast expense it would entail on the
finances of the country.
The number of muskets already taken by the au-
thorities is said to amount to 10000.
In consequence of the firm attitude of the 60
vernment, mercantile matters in France appeared
disposed to-improve. The funds had risen consi-
derably, and the price Saturday. at the close of
the Bourse, had reached 5la francs for the Three
per Cents, and 30 francs for the Five per Cents.
General Duvivier died on Saturday, the sth in
slant, from fever, occasloned by his wound. This
10 the sixth general dead frcm the effects of wounds

The English Three per Cent Consos were
quoted at about 81 at the close of business Sa-
turday the 9th inst. Business at the Havre Bourse

The trial of Ernest Jones, the chartlst agitator,
took place on the 10th, IN the Central Criminal

The Austrian government has issued manIfes-
to declaring that every endeavor for making
peace with Lombardy having proved abortlve, it

An engagement was expected to take place in
few days between Radetzky and the Sandman
forces. It is feared King Charles Albert will be
beaten, and in that case French Intervention will
be solicited.
General Bedeau has consented to accept the
portfolio of Minister of Foreign Affairs
Everything indicates that the Government of
France is about to merge into military despo-
II e or hv pfo ,ad
Frenchmen, that this will pave the way for re-
gency, and it is looked for that Theirs, Odlllon
Barrot and others, will shortly be called by Gene
raj Cavaignac to assist in his Council.
There is no moral doubt In the minds of many
in France, that Lamartne, Ledru Rolin, and
others of the late Executive, were implicated in
the recent instruction. Lamartine is about to
leave France SO says the French journals, but it is
denied by that gentleman, most emphatically. We
refer our readers to his letter.

per 100 lbs on the middling qualities.
