The news is Dot öf yrt at importance. Commercial and money affairs were on the whole improving. The Corn market was in a dull slate, in consequence cf the uncertainty, or lack of certainty, as to the course

The Queen's arcouchment is expected to take place at Buckingham Palace about the middle of May. Great numbers of Germans are constantly arrivinj in London from the continent, on their way to NewYork. Every packet-ship from the Thames carries out hundreds of them. The distress of some of the emigrants recently occupied the attention of the Lord Mayor of London. The Dutch Government had declared its intention of conquering the fertile inland of Cali, containing nearly two millions of inhabitants. The merchants of Singapore view this movement, it is said, with jealousy. The Cologne Gazette of the 23d ult. states, that a general belief prevails of the Austrian Government beinj obliged to have recourse to a new loan. The Prussiin Government has stopped all legal proceedings against Eor.ge. Austria and Trussia have addressed notes to the French Government, relative to the intrigues cf the Polish Propaganda in Taris. The Augsburg Gazette of the 23d ult. announces that perfect tranquillity has been restored in Galicia. " An edict has been pasted on the walls of Rome denouncing the modern innovation of gas-light, and ordering that all private gas-works should be suppressed.

The Eritania, which sails to day, take3 out f.ie Friendly International Addresses from different towns and cities in England to the same number of cities in the United States. The most remarkable of these addresses is the one from the women of Exeter to the icoincn of Philadelphia, signed by sixteen hundred cf our fair countrywomen. The citizens of Edinburgh have adopted an address to the citizens of Washington, deprecating war, and recommending the settlement of the national disputes by arbitration. The account which came to hand from America recently had no visible effect on the price of the English securities. The settlement of the Oregon question on the basis of the 49th parallel continues to be regarded as a thing that must be as a fair settlement, to which the leading statesmen on both sides of the Atlantic -will combine to give their aid. The interminable discussions on the subject in the Senate bears a striking affinity to the dreary waste of words .in the English House of cotnrmns oa the Coercion! and the Corn Bills. Liverpool, May 5. The Cotton market sustains the improved feeling that ruled when the last steamer sailed. Large quantities of American provisions find their way to this country by almost every arrival. With an anticipated scarcity of bread stuffs, the records of the barrels of flour an 1 of beef which cross the Atlantic at the present time are duly paraded in the columns of the daily press. They point a moral of a gratifying character ; for when the restrictions which have hitnerto impeded that branch of commerce are removed aa removed tbey will be it is impossible to gange the extent to which the Provision trade between England and America will be carried. At present, tre are upwards of 400,000 barrels of j flour under lock in Liverpool, all ot winch will be removed at' the low duty when the Corn Rill becomes lav. Ireland. Notwithstanding the fact that Ireland is in such a state of destitution, large quantities of provisions are daily sent from that unf jrtunate country to England. x revision riois nave lanen piace ai reinaru. uanir, and Roscarberry. Provision boats coming from Waterfurd last week were attacked and plundered by numerous parties, and the goods carried away in all directions. Complaints are rife in all parts of the country with respect to the high price of Indian corn, (in Sligo, it is stated to be more expensive as an article of food than third rate Irish flour) and the difficulties the joor people experience in getting it ground f jr ue. Emigration from Ireland to tho continent of North America is proceeding on a large ncale. A vessel left Limerick a few days ago with 420 emigrants for Canadi, 40 of whom had their passage paid by their landlord. Another vessel is about sailing from the same port with 120 emigrants for Qu. 'bee. In Cork the strongest terms of disapprobation are applied to tha government for the course it i pur.-u-inp; if reference to the distress in that city, and the exertions making there for its relief. The authorities, complain that all their applications for government aid are rejected on snrne technical point or other. The American pneket Carnelia,- Capt. French, 1090 tons arrived at Cork a few days since, triniii ludian corn to the amount t.f 25,000 bushels, with about 10,000 barrels of meal. The accounts from various pnrts of Uie country give painful evidence of the existing distress. .Many of the districts are ufR;rin the horrors of famine, nd fever is on the increase. The Iltllinnsloo Advertiser states that the district h j?jital in that town is cry crowded. Tiiere are many fever cases.

The friends cf the deceased iu vain pleaded their in ability to pay the sum in question.

The Delhi Gazette Extraordinary contains several important documents connected with the treaty of peace between the Indian Company and the Maharajah of Lahore, which was signed at Lahore the Uth of March. By Article 3 the Maharajah cedes to the Company all the territory comprised between the rivers Bens and Sutlej. By Art. 4 the Maharajah, finding it impossible to complete the payment of the indemnity agreed upon, cedes to the Company all the mountain territory comprised between the Bcas and the Indus, inclosing the provinces of Cachmerc and Mazarah. By Art. 5 the indemity to be paid by the Maharajah is settled at fifty lacs of rupees. In a word, the Company obtains by Art. 10 the right of pasae across the terr.tory ot Lahore by the troops, wherever required By Art. 12 the Maharajah recognizes Gi.olab Singh as independent sovereign of the territory which he at present possesses and of whatever the Company shall choose to cede to him hereafter. On the lGth of March a counter treaty was signed at Umritter, between the Company and the Maharajah Gholab Si n-h.

By Art. 0 Gholab Singh engages to join all his troops to those of the Company in the operations which may take place within the limits of the Company's territory. By Art. 10 Gholab Singh recognizes the supremacy of England, in testimony of which he will pay annually to the English Government eleven goats and six CacLmcre mules. The Cholera. This destructive scourge of hu manity seems once more on its way to ravage the continent of Europe, originating, as before, in the heart of Asia, northern Persia being the first quarter in which it was noticed; it is gradually approaching the confines of Europe. The chief cities of Persia already count by thousands the number of their dead who hae fallen victims to Asiatic cholera. The line of route taken by it appears to be almost due west, for it attacked in regular succession tli3 cities of Bokhara, Herat, Meshed, Teheran, and Ispahan, while recent accounts from Odessa state that two or three cases of Asiatic cholera had been observed at Tiflis. Should it continue to advance at its present rate, it may be looked for in Eastern Europe in a very short time. Indeed, it is stated from Riga that it has already broken out at Orenburg and Kasan, and that several persons at St. Tctersburgh have been attacked by the influenza, a disease that usually precedes the cholera; proper precautionary measures ought, there' fore, to be taken to check the progress of the cholera in due time, for arriving as it w ill in the middle of summer, the season most favorable for its development and propagation, the consequences in the densely crowded towns and cities of the Continent will be awful. V er man Paper . I-ater from iTlexico. The barque Mandarin, Captain Coolly, arrived this morning from Vera Cruz, which place she left on the in nisi. i c nave jiijit,-i3 i Li uiui uiie. By the above arrival we learn that the United States squadron sailed from Vera Cruz on the 4th inst. On getting under way, the guns of the castle were all manned, matches lighted, ready to fire into them, if any disposition was made towards it. It was gene rally believed that as soon as it was ascertained that hostilities had commenced on the frontiers, Commodore Conner would make an attack on the town and castle; but that a larger force would be required than was there. When the Mandarin sailed, the United States ship Falmouth was the only vessel in port. The Commydure, it was reported, had gone to the Erazos to assis the army, if needed. Every preparation was making at era Cruz for its defence, and that of the castle, Heavy guns were being taken over every day. - The weather had become very hot, the thermometer stand ing at IKP in the shade. The vomita had made its appearance. The Locomotor, of May G, says : 44 We hear it said by some persons of respectability that the American commodore nas iositive orders to attack the castle o Ulloa as soon as lie hears of hostilities having begun on the Tito Grande. Wc have taken pains to ascertain the truth of the case, and have found it to be true. It seems that the commodore has written to his Government urging the necessity of sending twenty large men-of-war to enable him to take the castle in the way it is now fortifieJ, and be has been answered that he must accomplish it with the 300 guns he now has in the vessels at Sacrificios. 4AVe were filled with pleasure yesterday, at notic ing the vigilance and activity of the garrison of the J city and the castle. The American fleet sailed from . Sacrificious, and before going to sea, veered, towards I the nort. Immediately the castle and city were crowd ed with artillery-men, and the guns loaded, pointed and ready to fire on the fleet, which, i.oticing changed its course and stood out to sea. In 1S3, there was a general discouragement, as we all knew the weak slate of the castle, and the Government had given orders not tj fire the first gun under any circumstances Now it is a different thing. There is in the glacis of the castle, a battery on a level with the water mounting fifty colossal Pui.xhan guns, which did not j exist in All other Latteries, as w ell as this one, arc mounted on the modern system, and with jrood powder, which wc did not have in 1S3S. The city is in tlie same Situation, with Paixhan batteries, and a3 it exists, tlie greatest enthusiasm prevails. We foresee a prcat triumph to our arms." Den F. M.

A letter from Charleston gives the following account of the causes that led to the capture of Lieut. Deas : It appears that Lieut. Deas was officer of the day, and it was customary for the American band to per form the national airs, when the 4 Star Spangled Banner" was lowered in the eveuinT. This concert of ntr uasiuwutu iu uu, euiuu p. mis sweet sounds attracted the attention of the Mexicans on the opposite side, and crowds assembled on the banks of the river to listen to the strains of music, among them were many ladies. Lieut. Deas became enamoured with a certain Mexican beauty, and signs and tokens of aflection pas-ed between them ; on tlie same evening like another Leander, he plunged into the Mexican Hellespont after his Hero, and no sooner had he landed on the ether side than he was secured a3 a prisoner. L.ovc and not valor or Iriendsiiip, prompted him to swim across the nvcr. Gen. Veiga, says the Louisville Democrat, is the same man who was taken at San Jacinto then Col. Veiga. He is about the only Mexican General that will stay long enough on the battle-field to be caught. It is said that Gen Veiga declined accepting a parole of honor, alleirin that he would be forced to fight by his government, against the U. Stales. He must have a high opinion of the Mexican Government. The U. S. Brig Terry has been ordered to sea, from Norfolk, having been hurried off, no doubt, for the conveyance of despatches to the Pacific squadron. Passed Midshipman M'Rae Ins proceeded overland on a similar service.

AXTIQCITY OF THE CillNESE EMPIRE. The R.ev. iMr. Milue, an English missionary, has recently re turned to his native country from China, the field of his labors, and is now delivering lectures on the Celestial Empire. In the course of these lectures he has made some interesting statements respecting the antiquity of the empire. The Chinese, it appears, divide their history in;o three parts, autherU.c, traditional and mythological. At the present time they have a very correct and distinct mode of computing their historical eras by cycles ot titty years. Applying this estimate to the authentic period, Mr. Milne finds that the first real personage who sat upon the throne in China, began to reign 2,200 years before Christ. This was 1 IS years after the flood, and 47 years after the confusion of tongues at Babel. This calculation is not wholly improbable. The Babylonian Empire is supposed to have been founded in 2,217 ; Ahur laid the foundation of another Kingdom at the same time ; and the Egyptian monarchy dates from 2,133. Mr. Milne stat :s various facts, gleaned from the early history of China, which go to prove that the first King must have been synchronized with the immediate descendants of Noah. The whole number of Emperors, belonging to 14 dynasties, is 23G. The number of Empresses does not appear. 44 These," says the lecturer, 44 behaved so ill, and were often at the bottom of all mischief, that it was found necessary, three or four hundred years ago, to dispense with their services in this capacity." 44 I'll Try, Sir." We notice a paragraph in several papers, fctatinij that the famous response 447Z fry, sir" was made at the sortie of Fort JUeigs. According to our recollection of history, the facts are as follows: At the battle of Lundy's Lane, the attention of the Ccmmandcr-in-Chief was directed to an English battery, which was so placed as to mow down our troops, in the most destructive manner. It was evident that the party in command of that battery would decide the issue of the contest. Col. Miller, since Collector of Customs at Salem, Ias., uns rnllp.l- sind nsl-prl if ho. could take that hnttrrv. He replied, 44 77 try, sir." Ceneral McNeil, recentl . j ly Surveyor of the port of Boston, then a captain, w c (nn tl.on o onntn.n . believe, in Col. Miller s regiment, advanced on the battery in front, to engage the attention of the enemy, whilst the colonel approached in another direction. Although McNeil was badly wounded, and his company nearly cut to pieces, Col. Miller succeeded in taking the battery and turning the tide in favor of the American forces. The modest and laconic reply of Col. M. has since become famous, and is now regarded with the same enthusiasm as tlie dying command if Lawrence 44 Don't give up the ship." 57. Louis Rejiorltr.

St. Bartholomew Massacre. When the orders for the massacre of St Bartholomew were sent to the Governors of the Provinces of France, there were only two or three that refused to obey. One of them, Montmoria, Governor of Auvergne, wrote to His Majesty the following letter, which deserves to be transmitted to posterity : 44 Sire I have received an order with the seal of your Majesty, to kill all the Protestants in my Province. I respect your majesty too much, not to believe that this girder is a feigned one: but if the order should really have come from you, which I hope to God may not be the case, I respect your Majesty too much to obey it !

The statement of the complainant's belief from C.'s rrpresenta tion is mere surplusage. The defect could not be supplied by answers. An agtecment between C. and D., that if he, D., would give fuithcr time ta A. and B. for the payment of a ceitain debt due him, he, C, would see that the debt was secured hy on the lands ; C. having no authority to mortgage those lands a moii'ra're on certain ranas Deienrini- to A., rreatc no 1 en and all the effect that a breach of his agreement to have them moitgüged could have, would he to subject himself to an aciiou at jaw ior oamages. An agreement in relation to the interest of lands should be in wiiting according to the statute of frauds. In mercantile agencies, and peihaps others, where the nature of the business requires the agent to keep various accounts of purchases and sales or of receipts and expenditures with his principal, he may be called upon by his principal in chancery for an account; but where the agency is confined Jo a single transaction, in which no such accounts could arise, the remedy, if there is any, is exclusively at law.

A special plea that states that an endorsement of a note was made by the defendant to the plaintiff, without any consideration, is, in substance, valid. An endorsement is a contract which must be governed by the law of the pliec whcie the note is payable, without regard to the place where the endorsement wa;. actually made.
