The vIcrssrruDrs or CoxxrRcr.--The New

The vIcIssrrUDrs OF CoxNrRcE.--The New
York Epening Post relates the following remark
able instance OF the vicissitudes Of commerce:
"a few months since, the partner of CONNER
cial house in this city was taken to lunatic asy
lum, utterly deranged, as was said, by his unpar-
slleled prosperity in business. During the year
previous his frm had cleared 81 800, 900. He died
in the asylum and his own estate was valued at
81, 900, all invested in the concern OF which
he was partner. The firm itself failed the other
day and is now said to be utterly insolvent. One
item of the assets Of the dcceased's estate was a
thousand shares of the Illinois Central Railroad
stock which was selling at the time of his decease
ut $l40 share, and which was worth, after pay
ing up the iRstallments, 100000. The same
property sold yesterday at public sale at $50 ooo
All this occurred within eighteen months-the
prosperity, the insanity the decesse and the in
solvency."

TEE ExrRAoRDISARY BEE HIVE AT PoRMANB.
Some three months since we copied from .
Portland paper an account of an unused chimney
in dwelling house In that city having been taken
possession OF by bees, and that II nearly flled
with honey. II was concluded not 10 disturb the
honey at that time, and the covering 10 the eAim-
ney was carefully replaced. We learn from the
Portland Argus that few days since ii was de-
termned to make an attempt to capture the bees
and gain possession OF their marvellous store OF
sweets; when 10 on removing tho coverings,
both bees and honey were gonel The sagacious
little fellows had wisely come TO the conclusion
that they were no longer SAFE, and they concluded
to move, and they did move bag and baggage.
Not particle OF honey was left, and bat small
portions of the comb and wax, which the bees
were hard at work taking or too.

CONSTITUTING NoTIcE.-A writer in the New
York Commercial Advertiser, who represents him
self as one of the passengers aboard of the first
regular steamboat on her first regular trip,
prefaces his account with the following amusing
anecdote: ..a
"Fultons new steamboat was the wonder Of
the day. She was visited daily by hundreds of
the curious, who asked many queer questions in
relation to the operation Of the steam and ma
chnery; one Of these almost invariably was,
Where and how was the steam TO be conveyed
10 the water-weelf' The crowd Of visitors be-
came a great annoyance and hindrance TO those
employed on board, and recollect very amusing
incident connected with the attempt to prevent
intrusion. Mr.. Fulton directed painter to letter
board with the words, One dollar for any per-
son to come on board without liberty which was
put up In a conspicuous place. One day q sailor
came along and read the notice. Jack was not
long in putting his construction upon il, and
giving Ibis quid a roll In his mouth, and with q
laughing, knowing wink Of the eye, jumped on
board without ceremony, pointed to the board
and accosted the man nearest him with Mister,
who pays me that dollarp Mr.. Fulton was stand
ing near and laughed heartily, thing unusual
with him, for he was generally, while among the
men, very tacturn and grave, giving his orders
and directions in laconic manner"

QUEBEC, Oct. l9.-Letters by the North Amer
lea report an eighth advance in cotton and quotes
fair Orleans at 9s< and middling at 5-l6, The
market closed firm. Flour had declined 3D., and
trade In the manufacturing districts was un-
changed Sues
Money was very active rates hardening though
the heavy payments due on the 4th, passed on
favorably, and no failures were announced.
The announcement OF the suspension OF the
Philadelphia Banks reached England by the Baltic,
but sufficient time had not elapsed for the develop
ment of the effect. &-sh
The Baltic made a fine passage, occupying only
days and % hours
The day of the sailing of the North America
was being observed in England as general fast
day in reference to the affairs in India. Business
was generally suspended.
The Bank of England has loaned the India
Company 9l,000,o00 sterling, taking the Indian
bonds for security.
The United States frigate Plymouth left South
ampton on the 9th for home.
More troops are held in readiness for India. Ten
thousand additional militia have been embodied in
the army.
The Indian advices received at Paris are more
gloomy than the English letters. 1t ia asserted
that the rebels are under European generalship I;
that operations have been commenced to prevent
union of the British forces; that five years Of
fighting may be anticipated, and that the native
troops are not trustworthy anywhere.
It Is announced that a further force of 10000
militia is at once to be called OUT this will raise
the force Of embodied militia to 100000.

MEXICAN ArFAIRs.-The Washington cores
pondent Of the New York Courier and Enquirer
as follows in regard to Mexican affairs:
Private advices from Mexico represent the
affairs Of that Republic to be again in confused
and depressed state. Il is almost impossible for
the government to obtain money, and the arrears
of last years cherges are 100000. Comonfort
has been nearly unanimously elected President;
but 80 many internal obstacles exist to the inau-
guration of the new system provided by the con-
stituton, that it is thought to be doubtful whether
it will be attempted. Circumstances and the tenn
per of the nation seem to invite Comonfort to as
sumo the dictatorship. Notwithstanding the re-
ported brilliant success of Messrs. LaSere and
Benjamin in ousting the Sloo grantees from their
privileges, it. was not considered in Mexico that
the grant obtained by themselves for the Tehuan-
tepec railroad and canal would be available for the
actual construction of the work. The rights of
the United States relative to transportation of the
mails troops, and munitions Of war are not defined
in it with that particularly which Mr.. Forsyth
thought necessary, which was the reason that he
extended no encouragement to the plans of LaSsre
and Benjamin, and incurred their censure. But
his course has been approved at Washington, and
it begins to appear that the New Orleans lobby
men gained little for themselves or their clients
by supplanting Sloo. The war will be Immediately
renewed by Messrs. Soule Sloo, and Elwood Fisher
in the United States, and viii no doubt continue
until our own government settles the dispute by a
negotiation with Mexico, which shall acquire the
right of way and an absolute or qualified jurisdic
ton over the Isthmus"
