The deaths in New Orleans for the week ending
hst Sunday amounted TO ,534. OF which ,365 were
rom yellow fever. The mortality produced by the
aver for three weeks was s,6e9. Owing TO the
favorable change in the weather there has been as
great decrease in the number of deaths in other
sides ss in this. In Philadelphia the number Of
hterments Last week wac about two hundred and
twenty, and In Boston ninety seven.
We learn from Cincinnati that great excitement
xas produced in that city, particularly among the
sAsftion portion Of the inhabitants thereof by the
hading Of three slaves at the wharf on Friday.
1he negroes were, with their masters, on their way
ksm Virginia to the South Under IL statutes Of
Ohio al slaves, if brought into the State by their
owners are free. Consequently, the blacks we're
lsought before Judge Finn on writ OF habeas cor
- and their liberation was demanded. After
ssszacted and exciting Investigation the Judge de-
sded to remand the slaves into the custody of their
nastxrR This is the second time that these who
ayle themselves philanthropists have been non.
PlusEed by the judiciary in Gin ,innati within the
past two weeks Judge Mel oa. Ia TIC nrsl In
sance, declared that the Fugitive Slave law was the
NV Of the land, and must be observed as such, and
new Judge Finn has virtually pronounced, by his
ACCESSION, State law of Ohio upon the subject of
slavery of no effect whatever.
According to the Hast advlces received from Bae-
1os Ayres, the current Of fortune had turned upon
ne deposed DioeaeUr, UrquiEa, with an mpetnosity
Mat WAS deemed impossible for him to stem many
days longer. Oar columns yesterday contained the
announcement that the entire feet which had been
ilscksding the city bad deserted his cause aud gone
ever to the Bnenos Ayreans. We no leara that the
soldiers Of his beseging army we're ready and ex-
Iected to re1e1 - any moment Being without foed,
Cbtbinz and amunitio or the means wherew With TO
purchase them, they were gradually desertipg
his standard. Indeed, it was believed that
Urquiza himself would gladly rm away, were
he not prevented by his own men. In adj
aition, il was reported that he would soon be
completely hemned in BY the army Of General
Flores, which was marching upon him from the
north; and, what was worse than all, troubles
never come singly. his own province had declared
against him, and installed new chief. The pros.
pect Of the Buenos Ayreans is apparently brighten
ing at last; bat win they profit by past experience
and select competent and honest men to rule over
them, or viii they, they did in the case Of Urquiza
after Kidding themselves OF Rosas, merely call upon
another bealess tyrant 70 crush them to the earth
