+ INTELLIGENCE.

NEW YORK, Oct. l3.-The steamship Euro.
pa, which arrived at Boston, brings fourteen Of
Arctic's passengers, including Mr.. E. Dupas-
seur, Of New Orleans.
The. report, however. that the ship had
brought forty more Of her passengers TO New
Port, RI, proves altogether without founda-
ton.
Thus far the total number saved amounts to
ll8, among whom there are only fourteen pas
sengers. The others are sailors and fremen.
Great indignation is expressed at the latter
having monopolized the boats and left the pas.
sengers to perish.
The passengers picked up by the Europa,
express . firm belief that the family Of Mr.. Col.
Inns have been lost. Mr.. Collins is said to be
afflicted even to insanity at the shocking oe.
currence.
There are yet two boats containing sixty
passengers to he heard Of, and lively hopes are
entertained Of their safety.
Among those yet missing are Mr.. Jas. North
and MI. Schmidt, the cotton broker, both Of
New Orleans.
Capt. Luce and Mere Passengers Saved.
QUEBEC, Oct. l4-The ship Cambridge
which has arrived at this port, reports having
picked up . party Of those on board the Arctic
at the timeof her being lost. The party com.
prises Capt. Luce, Of the Arctic and q number
Of the passengers. Among the latter are Nj.

MIR. LETTER.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 8,

WASHINGTON. Aug. 8, 1854.
d. Rodney King, Esq-My Dear Sir Pro.
tracted and severe sickness since the receipt
Of your letter of the Sd ultimo. has prevented
me from keeping up my correspondence. But
for this, your letter would have. received an
immediate answer. Let me begin, then, by
replying to your principal question. l respond
to that by declaring frankly, that / never was,
am not now, and never shall be a candidate
for the Presidency. ! have seen enough Of
it to form a decided opinion, that for me, there
is no position 10 this country less desirable. I
shall be content with the seat in the Senate of
the United States, which the kind Partially of
friends, in my native State, have assigned to
me. Indeed, I would not exchange it for any
under the government.
The year 1856 must decide a momentous is.
sue in this country-Are the American people
prepared to share with aliens the right of gov.
erning this nation, at the baIlot.box, as soon
as these aliens can make a declaration Of in.
t~ention! They may, and often do make, such
a declaration, within a week, or even a day.
afte: landing on our soil. Again, are the Anne.
rican people prepared to share, with aliens,
every blessing and benefit conferred upon them
- American citizens, and even to give them a
share Of the public domain! By the Nebraska
bill, Congress has conferred upon them the
right of voting, and by the Homestead bill,
which is still pending, and TO be decided upon
next winter, they are to have an equal share of
the public domain, on the same terms with ma.
tive and naturalized citizens. Again, the Ame-
rican people must decide whether, other cir
cumstances being equal, the native citizen is
or is not fairly entitled to preference in the
distribution of honors and Offices, in the coun.
try which gave them birth.
The state of my health will not permit me
to discuss these questions in q letter. Our
naturalization laws are unquestionably defec.
tire, or onr a~lmshouses would not now be filled
with paupess. Ofthe $4,000 paupers in the
United States, $4,000 are foreigners, and sc, 1000
natives. The annals Of crime have swelled
as the jails Of Europe have poured their con-
tents into the country, and the feion convict,
reeking from . murder in Europe, or who has
had the fortune to escape punishment for any
crime abroad. easily gains naturalization
here, BY spending : part Of five years within
he limits Of the United States. Our country

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE Collins steamshll
Baltic, Capt. Comstock, has arrived here, witt
intelligence from Liverpool to the 4th instant
four days later than that received by the Euro
pa. Her news is of the highest Importance
comprising the announcement Of the defeat O
the Russians in the first battle fought in TIT
Crimea, and the burning of Sebastopol.
THE WAR.
Terrible Eattle in the Crimca.
The steamship Baltic brings the positive re-
port of a terrible battle having been fought in
the Crimea, on the 25th ult, between the allied
troops and the Russians, near the river Alma
The enormous number of 10000 English
and French are reported to have fallen in the
frightful con aict, while the Russians are said
to have suffered to the yet more horrible extent
of $4,000 killed, and $4,000 taken prisoners.
Sebastopol is at the same time reported to
be in flames; but Prince Menschikoff, notwith.
standing this dreadful defeat, refuses to sur
render.
The first news of the fall of Sebastopol was
received by way of Bucharest, whittier it had
been brought by a Tartar. Considerable doubt
was thrown upon his report, but the French
Government have stated that they had received
a confirmation of the.news from M. De Buel,
the Turkish Minister at Vienna. A telegraphic
dispatch to the Turkish Minister at London to
the same effect. also confirmed the nsws.
lstaifs, howeveryars yet wanting. and in the
meantime the telegraphic dispatches in the va
rious newspapers are very conflicting.
The news had of course caused the widest
excitement, and an immediate advance in both
the English and French funds.
The Baltic.
The French squadron is again immediately
to join Admiral Napier in the Baltic, and an at
tempt is certainly to be made upon Revel and
Cronstadt before the closing of navigation.
Liverpool Cotton Market.
The reports of the Liverpool cotton market
brought by the Baltic show an advance of Id.
per pound.
The sales during the three days since the
departure of the Europa had been $4,000
bales.
The quotations are for Fair Orleans SD. per
h., for Middling Orleans st d. per lb.
