Except for the chances of injury to the railway or vehicle, there would not be the smallest reason for conveying goods even of (he coarsest kinds, at tour miles rati.cr than --0 miles an hour, st*

But a perfect calm in the atmosphere is very rare, and vehicles intended for daily and constant use, must be prepared to contend with the strongest winds The power must therefore be increased to such au extent, as to enable the \enicle to travel at its wonted pace in all weathers.

But they are now combinations (f individuals, who, in-' stead of being the sous and servants of the community make a league for advancing their privute interests. It is their business to hold high the notion of political honor Ji believe and trust, it is not injurious to say, that such a bond is no better than that by which the lowest and wickedest combinations are held together and that it denotes the last stage of political depravity."

The effect of this is, that the importer or consignee here gives bonds at the port or entry, that the flour shall go into the King's warehouse, to remain there till sold for exportation, or actually exported to some of the British West India Islands and when thasshipped, the bonds are cancelled, and on its arrival in the West Indies, it only ays one shilling stg. per barrel duty or it may at any time be taken out of bond nd sold for consumption in this country nr for shipment to any place other than the West Indies, by paying the duty nere of five shillings sterling per barrel4

LA PLATA.—We lave receive*! from our correspondent nt the Merchant's Coffee-H ouse «jf Philadelphia, a brief account ot the news brought by the ship Muss which has arrived at that port, with a passage of 51 days from Montevideo.

A passenger in that ves&el states, that a battle had been fought at Itursaigo about 500 miles north east ol Slentevideo. in which the patriots had gained a great victory killing 1500 IJrav.il-ans, capturing about an equal number, put tbe remainder to rout, and taking camp* equipage, &.c This we suspect to be another account of the battle of the Tacurembo, at which the Brazilians pretended to the victory.

Another advantage has been gained hy Com Brown, as mentioned in the Buenos Ayres papers. Or' the Gth and 10th February he attacked the Brazilian squadron, off the Island ol Martin Garcia, n» ar the mouth of the Uruguay. and took and destroyed nineteen sail, one. only escapw.1 to Montevideo. The blockading squadron, consisting in all of niue sail, were anchored at Knsen-
