NOTICE.

The proprietors of The EXCHANGE have an
nounced their intention to engage in an advertising
enterprise by which they hope to promote, not
only the individual interests of those who
may make use Of their agency, but to ad-
and extend the commerce of Baltimore.
Owing to the supineness prevailing here, and
the extreme activity OF our eastern rivals, there
is great misconcepton among the merchants OF the
interior as to the resources of this market.
Buyers are every day passing through our midst
to purchase, elsewhere, what might have been OBJ
tanned here on terms as good or BETTER and this
mortifying fact can be attributed to nothing so
much as to the want of timely and accurate infor-
nation of the advantages offered by the merchants
and manufacturers of this city. 1t must be obvious
that this difficulty cannot be met by employing the
usual channels for the distribution of advertise
ments. Valuable and essential as these are, there
is now no commercial journal in Baltimore which
has, or which can hope to have for its ordinary is
sues, a circulation either in extent CT character,
such as we are enabled to guaranty for our new Ad-
vertiser. Every advertisement inserted in our
monthly supplement will reach at least ten thou
sand of the select business men of all the regions
in which there is reasonable hope of extending the
trade of this city; fact which we are prepared to
demonstrate to all who may favor with their
business. In OrQer TO make tHS enter prise
exclusively to the benefit of Baltimore, shall re-
iect all advertisements from other quarters; and to
make our advertising supplement a valuable auxil-
iarv to our city trade we shall publish in it careful
" prepared articles embracing within their scope
whatever may fairly contribute to the advancement
of the object in view. There is a vast deal connec
ted with city, in the past, in the present-in
her position, her wealth, her enterprise. her rail
road and water communications, her colleges and
schools, her local and social advantages-which if
judciously presented, cannot fail to have benef-
cal influence on the sentiments with which she will
be regarded elsewhere. Our plan is to issue supple
ment to our Daily in monthly numbers, commencing
the first of May next to be sent gratuitously by
mail to at least ten thousand of the business of
the South and Vest the whole expense to be de-
frayed by reasonable charge for advertisements
This we have fixed at the rate of one dollar a
square, and when the nature and extent of the
circulation thus ensured are taken into con-
sideration, rates must be regarded as
extremely moderate. No advertisement inserted
for less than one dollar-none renewed
except by special contract. Terms invariably
cash in advance. We are now ready to receive ad-
vertisements for our first number, and for further
information, invite applications at our counting

We published yesterday among our dispatches
rumor to the effect that the CHIEF JUSTICE would
unite with the friends of the late P BARTON KEY in
an application to the PRESIDENT to appoint counsel to
aid IN the prosecution of Mr.. SICKLEs This is as
we have reason to know, not correct Such an
application was made by other friends and relatives
a few days since and positively refused. When it
is remembered that the UNITED STATES ATTORNEY
for the District of Columbia has Just entered upon
the duties of his office, and that almost his first
case is to prosecute the SLAYER of his immediate pre-
decessor, who will be defended by some six or
more of the ablest criminal lawyers in the
country. and that, granting to Mr.. OULD all
the capacity TO try this case which the largest ex
perience and the most eminent abilities could fur
nish the mere physical labor of concnding, single
handed, against such an array, is more than ought
TO be imposed on mere human brain and muscle
for any protracted period of trial-we cannot but
look upon this course of Mr.. BUCHANAN very Sc
rionsly compromising, and, possibly, defeating
the ends of justice. Precedents without number
may be found where different course has been pur-
sued, under circumstances where the same necessity
could not be pretended to exist, either in the inter-
est and importance of the CASE or in the great inc
quality in numbers and experience between the OPP
posing counsel.

FROM HAVANA.

The correspondent of the Savannah Republican
under date of March %, SAYS that Mr.. Thomas
Ascencio, whose arrest in Havana has been no
ticed, had been liberated after twenty-four hours
confinement He is native OF Cnba, but citizen
of the United States, and merchant at Portland,
Maine, of the firm of 'Sabrustequi d Ascencio."-
His baggage seized by police officer. Moth
ing, however, being discovered in it to compromise
him, after twenty four hours confinement, he was
set at liberty. What he had done to his
rest neither himself nor any body else are aware.
The correspondent of the Charleston Mercury
says that Mr.. Ascencio was banished from Cuba,
for supposed favor towards political separation from
S pain, and that while suffering under the penalty
of suspicion, he became naturalized citizen Of the
United States; subsequent to which he was par
doneG by the Queen, and received especial permls-
sion from General Concha to return to Cuba for
the transaction of business associated with the
house to which he was attached in Portland. The
casualty of runaway child brought him into dit
fculty, from which he released by the police
authorities the facts were ascer taned.
Mr.. Vicenta De Castro, son of DR.. De Castro,
who was banished from Cuba for supposed poiti-
cal dsaffection, was prevented from landing from
the Empire City, having been informed that the
police instructed to arrest him soon he
touched the whalf-so that he was compelled to go
to New York.
BY Royal order dated 5th November last, pub
lished here Goth instant, special commission has

strative services of Custom House officers, and to

paration of plan Of the studies requisite to be pur
sused for the carrying out of the project.
By another Royal order of same date as the above

FROM RARRADOES.

BRIDGErowN, March 13, 1s59.-The Legislature of
this island engaged at present in revising the
tariff and some of the changes made will interest
those of your readers who are engaged in West
India commerce. The most important reduction is
that in the duty Goldfish, from eight to four cents
the quntal The article is now excluded from bond.
1t also proposed to make similar reduction in
the duty rice, but it was thought safer to see
first the result of the experiment fish, article
of much more perishable nature. The House in
cuded in the table of exemptions all machinery i'm
ported, and also sundry other articles which now
realize an insignificant amount of duty. To make
up for the anticipated loss of revenue, the Royal
mail steamers which bring freight from England,
ria St. Thomas, and which heretofore have been
exempted from tonnage duty, will for the future be
liable to that impost in common with other vessels
bringing freight to the island. As Barbados is fed
exclusively by the United States, and as size i'm
ports a large proportion of machinery from the
quarter, the alterations in the new Trade Bill will
be of special interest to the American trader.
Governor Hincks takes his departure to-day for
England via Havana and New York During the
Governors absence the government will be admin
istered by the Colonial Secretary, which Office will
in turn be filled by Mr. Alexander Hncks. the
Governors eldest son.
There are not the prospects of such large sugar
crop this year as we had last year. 1t is not be-
lieved that it will this year exceed 1000, or, at
the outside &C, 200 hogsheads Last year it reach
ed $4,000 hogsheads, which, estimating the land
under cane cultivation at $4,000 acres, made two
hogsheads per acre. | have heard planters say
that they will produce this year three hogsheads
per acre. About 800 hogsheads have been already
shipped for Europe; the rapidly ripenng
and crop operations will soon be general.
The health of Barbados continues good, but yell
low fever is very prevalent in nearly all the ada
cent islands, though the fact is studiousy kept out
OF local papers. Trinidad, st. Vincent, Antigua
and St. Thomas are all suffering from the fever.
Markets are overstocked. A very large number
of vessels having arrived of late from the United
States, they have been compelled to carry on their
freight to other islands.-N Y Times.

FURTHER BY THE GRENADA.

CALIFoRNIA-The attempt of some of the white
miners to expel the Cinnamon from the mines of
Shasta county had led to serious riots. The Sheriff
of the county was absent from the town of Shasta
when the miners began to drive the Celestals of
that place from the diggings, but he afterwards
showed himself and acted in very energetic man.
ner. He called public meeting, made a speech
besought the citizens to assist him in executing the
laws, and declared that he would arrest rioters at
all cost The citizens cheered and encouraged him.
organized companies, and placed themselves under
his command, and he soon had number of men on
the way to those points where the Cinnamon were
threatened. Many of the miners, and nearly all the
people of the towns opposed to the unlawful ex
pulsion of the Chinese, accompanied, as it always
is, by great cruelty, and often by robbery.
The result of the Sheriff's action that some
of the rioters were arrested and committed to Jail
in the town of Shasta, whittier a great many mi
ners interested in the affair both sides have gone;
the anti China party declaring that those arrested
shall not be punished, and the law-and-order party
declaring that the sentences of the Court shall be
carried into execution.
Many Cinnamon have been driven from their
claims, much of their property has been destroyed,
some have been badly beaten, it is not known here
for certain whether any have been killed. All the
survivors are in the county, and the law-and-order
men say they shall have their claims again. During
the riots, in drunken quarres caused by the ex-
element four or five men have been wounded, and
one, Mr.. Healy, is said to be stabbed mortality

Governor has forwarded them, and has ordered the
