although the accession or Sonora, Sinaioa ETC., to
the United States has been looked upon as n settled
affair, your New York telegram announcing the
sale of these States took both natives and foreign
ers by surprise. The news soon spread over the
city with almost electric speed. creating considera-
BILE sensation amongst the Government employees,
whose name is legion but relief soon arrived by a
copy of Godoy's letter to the Bulletin, appearing in
the Government periodical. denouncing the rnmor.
There are a number of foreign merchants solely in

the bulk of commerce.. who naturally feel an aver

competitors of less capital whereas, under the
present regime, with full cargoes direct from Eu-
rope. with the probabilities of an occasional revo-
luton on the arrival OF n vessel, when the merchant
has the debating of what duties he will or will not
pay, are advantages not atiainable under the regu-
lated system of the American Governments.
In former years it was customary. upon the ar
rival of three or four European vessels, to pay some

New YORK, Sept. 1.-THE London Times con-
trasts the political canvass in Great Britain with
that in the United States In both cases the cleo
tors are new only here in England there are many
contests between differing men and principle.
which result in a confused hubbub, in which no
sound is heard above the rest. The incidents thus
taken have been peaceful and even negative but
the eight weeks remaining before the elections may
warm the contest now so quiet.
The Times dwells on the violent animation of The
Presidential fight in the United States. 1t calls the
American general election an American carnival.
