A despatch from Halifax to the agents of

the mail steamer from st. John, N. f.,
which also conveyed the passengers mem

The vessel is valued at about $500 900,
and is fully insured in England.
HALIFAX, September 2s, 1854
The R.>M. steamship America, Captain
Lang, with Liverpool dates of Saturday,
Sept. 10th, arrived at this port at an early
hour this forenoon.
The America brings news from all parts
of Europe three days later than the advices
by the Alps at Boston, but we do not learn
that she is the bearer of intelligence of
striking importance, beyond the fact that
the expedition designed TO act against Sc
bastopool, actually sailed from Varna on the
4th inst, and consisted of six hundred ships
and transports.
The Americas intelligence from Liver.
pool is Of rather quiet character the
transactions going forward in all the lead
ing articles of trade having been for some
days previous to the departure Of tho
America, on limited scale.
The reports Of the harvest in England
and on the Continent continue Of the moer
satisfactory character.
