shade. The ship was to be detained four
or Eve weeks, as she was leaking. and was
going to be repaired. The following piece
Tof intelligence we do not remember to hare
seen from any other quarter:
"After we leave here we shall 90 to Bor-
nee to ratify treaty with the Bornese. -
There are rumors herethat the BOrnese and
Dutch are fighting very briskly, and if that
is true, our boats may have to mix 10 the
scrimmage, II they are attacked. Three Of
our boats are going up---two lauBches and
the gig.- The launches will each have u
ID. howiizer,, and'the crew armed to the
teeth. From BorDeo we shall proceed to
Hong Kong, where We shall await the CON-
modore, who has gone to Japan with the
steamers Mississippi and Susquehanna, and
the sloop Of war Plymouth. The Borneo
expedition win bea dangerous one, apart
from the probability Of getting mixed up in
the fght, for the river which the boats eo
up is lined with predatory tribes, who know
no law except piracy and murder, and the
captain expects they will attack the boats.
They won't do it more than once"
The New York Tribune has adyices from
Shanghai to May is. The sloop Of war
Plymouth was to remain there, and not to
accompany the Japan Expedition, as was
expected. The American mercantile hous-
es had addressed letter to Commissioner
Marshall, asking that they should not be
left defenceless, exposed to any emergency
that might arise. Commodore Perry there
fore, had detached the Plymouth for the
present, from the Japanese Squadron.
Boyard Taylor, Esq of the N. Y. Trib-
une, had joined the Expedition to Japan, ,hny-
ing been assigned place in the corps Of
artists. with the rank Of Masters Mate, on
board the Susquehanna. The Expedition
was to saffron Shanghai on Tuesday, May
II, and though its immediate destination
was not known, it was supposed il would
rendezvous at the great Loo Choo islands,
therO to aw lit the Saratoga and Powhattan.
A rumor wasiu existence that the japanese
had fortified their shores and stationed war
junks to prevent the entrance of the steam
ers into their waters, but this was regarded
as piece Of Chinese exaggeration.
The Mississippi arrived at Shanghai from
Hong Kong on the I'd of May, and was sa-
luted by the Susquehanna. Commodore
Perry, during his stay, became the guest OF
the American Consul. On the 9th Commo-
dore p. transferred his pennant to the Sus-
lquehanna, as the flag ship of the expedition.
| 'rhe Saratoga and Supply were to sail from
Shanghai between the 10th aud 18th oi
May, and the Susquehanna and Mississippi
on the l7th The fleet, it was supposed
would make its appearance in the Bay ol
Jeddo early in June.

DESPERATE RloT,--There was serious
riot among some Of the laborers On the
Genital Ohio Railroad, at ,McMahon's
creek, on Monday. The Wheeling Gaz-
ette says they hurled a voley of stones at
the windows OF a house, and attempted to
break down the doors with their shillalehs.
During the melee man called Fitzpatrick
was shot in the legs, and others slightly
wounded, A house belonging 70 Mr., Nc
Bride was also attacked, not with missiles
but the fambeau, and burned to the ground.
Nearly every thingit contained was eonsu-
med, among which was trunk containing
large sum Of money. The riot was iual-
ly quelled by Mr.. McCarsney,a a contractor,
who rushed in among the rioters with a
loaded pistol, and threatened every one with
instant death who did not desist.,
