IMPORTANT FROM JArAN.--The
English:papers contain the important
announcement, under date Of Sbang-
haze, April IL. that Commodore peny
has succeeded in the object Of his visit
to Jeddo, and that similar advantages
have been obtained for the commerce
Of this country that had previously
been conceded to Russia. The same
condition is contained lin both treaties
namely. that three ports are to be
opened in a year. There is no reason
to question the truth Of this state
ment. as in our last correspondence
from Shanghae, (says the New York
Herald,) under date Of March 9th, it
was mentioned that Commodore Per-
rvs arrival from Jeddo was hourly
expected. The field which the sue
cess Of this important negotiation lays
open to our commerce is immense.
