HAVANA, November 12.-The French mail
steamer from st. Thomas November It'll has
arrived. The prolongation OF quarantine
at Porto Rico against ST. Thomas until the
10th instant has created much Indignation.
Protests were made in the matter by the
foreign consuls. There was no fever at St.
Thomas, and the quarantine is said to have
been obtained by intrigue by one house in
St. Thomas having branch at Porto Rico,
so as to prevent other purchasers cOmingto
St. Thomas, thus obliging them to purchase
ut the branch house in Porto Rico.
The rebellion in Santa Cruz is over. but
the future OF the island is doubtful. Bust
ness was at the lowest extreme.
Santo Domingo was reported quiet. The
revolution in the province OF Aqua is re-
ported sublued, but the latest accounts,
however, show that the port Of Azua was
still blockaded.
The next coffee crop promises to be I'M
usually abundant.
Hayti was quiet. The late hurricane had
DESTROYED about one third OF the coffee crop.
The Demarara planters were anXioGsly
awaiting the results Of the trial pending in
Baltimore to determine the question whe-
Their rich, dark sugars arc admissible under
the United States customs regulations ut the
low rates Ii the decision was favorable the
estates would forthwith commence making
dark sugars; il adverse, the crop would be
SlDpeQ to England.

The party Of Chicago merchants are eX-
pectcd with considerable interest. Diaz
and Gonzales, with other leading chiefs who
favor the present Constitution, are constant
Iy assailed by Revolutionists, who call them
selves the TuXtcpec party. These attacks,
however, strengthen Daz in the estimation
of Mcyicans. The supporters OF the pro-
posal for prolougation OF Diaz'S presidential
term for two years are increasing. 4 riot
occurred in Jalisco on the occasion OF the
election for State Governor, but was speed
lily quelcd. The revolutionary element in
the Tamauiipas has been completely oblitc-
rated.

correspondence of the Richmond Dspatch.]
TAPPAHANNoCK. November 8. 1873.
The Circuit Court has been in session in
this county since Saturday the Cd instant,
with IN interruption OF one day for the
election. The most important cause before
il was the suit Of Taylor Us. Fire and Ma
rinc Insurance Company, being the second
trial-the first resulted in q hung jury.
This case occupied three days OF the Court,
and was very holly contested on both sides.
This, the second trial. resulted as the first
in hung iury--and the counsel for the de-
fcHc" moved and obtained change Of
Venue to Caroline county. This old corpo-
ration--the Fire and Marine Insurance
Company-haS been represented in this
section for several years, and has done Il
great deal OF business. Their losses ag-
gregate over $4,000, and this, l believe. is
the first case they have ever contested, and
all others, | think, have been paid in full
and promptly. 1t seems strange there
should have been any feeling aroused
against this company, as IS alleged there
was.
Farmers have nearly or quite all finished
seeding wheat. and the crop is looking we'll
SO FIR. More has been seeded in this colln-
~ than usual, but not SO much fertilizer,
the farmers relying more on fallows.
The yield OF the corn crop, which is being
housed, is not satisfactory generally short
OF expectation, and the price is disgusting.
Farmers are very hard run; with present
prices they find it hard to live. They VIII
have to resume the early habits Of the re-
publc-start the spnnng-wheel and loom
again, and not only manufacture their cloth
ing at home. but everything else. The price
OF farm products leaves them no margin for
profit. OMEGA.

Important Action of the New York
II ey CIeRsIug. HcfsSe.

.f - \.
New YORK, November 1.-THE clearing
house to-day decided upon the following
plan OF action:
First To decline receiving gold coins as
special deposit, bat to accept and treat
them as lawful money.
Second. To abolish the special eHcbaDg &c
OF gold-cbecks at the clearing house.
Third. 10 pay and receive the balance
between banks at the eiearing-bou either
in gold or in United States legaltenders.
Fourth. To receive silver dollars upon
deposit only under special contract to with
draw the same In kind.
Fifth. TO prohibit payments Of balances
at the clearinghouse in silver certificates,
OF in silver dollars, excepting as subsidiary
coin in small sums (say under S10). =
Sixth. To discontinue gold special ac-
counts by notice to dealers on the 1st OF
January next, to terminate then.
The Post, in its fourth edition. says:
ssNo more important meeting has been held
at the clearinghouse since 1873, and the
action taken is even more important than
anything that was done by the clearing
house during the stormy days OF the great
panic. There was no formal expression OF
opinion on the subject OF the reissue Of
United States lesaI-tender notes after their
payment by the Treasury, it having been
thought best to contine the action and eX'
preston of the meeting strictly to matters
which require the earliest action"
