AUidny , 209 High-3 treet , Cheltenham , dated January 22 nd , 18-50 . Sib , —My eldest son , when about three years of age , was afflicted with a glandular swelling in the neck , which after a short time broke out into an ulcer . An errfinent medical man pronounced it as a . very bad case of scrofula , and prescribed for a considerable time without effect . The disease then for years went oh gradually increasing in virulence , when besides the ulcer in the neck , another formed below the left knee , and a third under the eye , besides seven others on the left arm , with a tumour between the eyes which nas expected to break . During the whole of the time my suffering boy had received the constant advice of the most celebrated medical gentlemen at Cheltenham , besides being for several months at the General Hospital

      FRANCE . Serious disputes hate occurred between the Minister of War and thfl committee presided over J £ K £ *•*«** prepare the laws for < he or ganisation of the government of Algeria . The committee holds that the moment is come forintrodncVns civil elements into the government of Algeria . General Schramm maintains the exclusiv e £ « ay of the military hierarchy . On which side the National Assembl y will pronounce itself seems at present doubtful . . The President of the Republic commenced his public receptions for the season with a brilliant soiree at the Elysee on Thursday . The rooms were crowded . The British Ambassador , Lady Normanbv , and most of the members of the diplomatic

      corps were present . # . The Princess of Capue having incurred in 1 S 42 a debt of 18 , 000 f . to Mile . Lenorraaiid , of the Rue de la Pais , for ar ticles of dres 3 , proceedings were instituted against her husband for that amount . A verdict was given against him ; but owing to his leaving Paris , it could not be carried into effect . It becoming known , a short time since , that the Princfihad arrived iu Paris , ami was residing in the Chamiis-Etvsres , an application was made'to

      the Ciurts for leave to arrest him , and even to use force if necessary . He was taken before President de- Beileyme , to whom he applied for leave io be set " free on his own recognizances , assuring that magistrate iba * he was in daily expectation of recenrra&ithroag h- the Minister of Foreign Affairs , a ciHiS&erfebJe ' ssih of money from Naples . The law asertt'of the adverse party objected to this course , aad I > I . de 8 el 3 'i 5 me , after hearing the objections , stated-that he would allow the ca ^ e to stand over

      to the next day at two o ' clock , when the sura -originally doe , ? . « well as 8 , 000 francs additional for imprest and costs , would have to be paid ; ii ~ nci , ? -= e woHld be lodged in prison . The case was again heard before President da Beileyme of the clyiJ tribunal . The . eraditors of the Priuas demanded that , as he bad not paid the amount due within the specified time , he should be sent io prison ; but certificates were put in , showing the Prince Io be too ill to be reiaored . Eventually it tms notified that the Minister of Foreign Affairs had intervened , and that an arrangement between the parties . rjad been come io . The President accordiii ^ ly . ^ decide d that there was no ground for coiweving t £ e Pri nee _ t < v prison .

Large quantities of wine continue to arrive at Bercy , but the price has not dunged since last week . New wine is little sought for in consequence of its inferior quality . Letters from Auierre announce a . decline in price . Good wines of the yejtr 1849 are sold there at from thirty . to thirt y . -fonr francsrthe hogshead . - ¦ The * Tiaies *' correspondent says : : ' I stated on Monday that the notice taken of the -new ~ and somewhat formidable plan oi the revolutionists to propagate . Socialist doctrines by means of the Freemasons' lodges had attracted the attention of the . parties at the head of this Institution . I

      just learn that the attention of liie Centra ! Grand Lodge has been particularly excited , and measures have been already taken to prevent any invasion by surprise of ibe secondary lodges of Paris and the departments . On Saturday a circular was issued by the Grand Orient to the / our grand lodges , earnestly urging them to leave nothing undone to prevent the institution of freemasonary being changed in its character . The Grand Orient has acted ° wiih such energy tbat the 507 lodges under its orders wili rigorously isaintain the execution of their statutes . A few lodges cf an infi-rior class may require to be watched ; bat the stirveiliance exercised over them is so strict that even th « re also the Socialists wili very probably be defeated '

      Jt is stated , on Ihe authority of private letters from Turing that Mazzini has been expected for some lime at Geaoa , in which city the danger is believed to be greatest to the Italian Peninsula . A large bod y of Italian refugeea is , it is said , as-: semb ] sd * there . The llazzini Io 3 n is imported to havs-been successful at Genoa , where the coupons are negotiated on the Bourse . A new manifesto has been addressed to the Socialist Democrats of Europe by the Association sitting in London , and calling itself La Societe des Proscrits , as distinct from ihe Central Socialist Committee . The members of the former are chiefly French , German , Hungarian , Polish , and Italian operatives . The manifesto urges the European demotraav to be on the wa » ch a = id declares that the

      t \ me is coming to strike a blow everywhere to Kings : tbat' the oirl social and political order of things is about to disappear , ' &c . ' In the opinion of the Society , 'it is observed in the manifesto : — 'If , on the 2 i ' -h of February , in place of submitting to a Government which wa 3 the issue of intrigue or o : chance , the people of Paris had at once assembled in sections , confided to delegates named by then ; the application of measures conformable to the preceding programme , the revolution would have followed its natural course , and prevented the tempest tbat we have yet to pass through , fanf from which our holy motto will yet issue triumphant . '

      II . de Mcntalemberf , on Tuesday , presented the report of the committee charged to examine the propositioa of M . d'OHvier , tending to render it obligatory on all the workmen employed in the state establishments , tvoiksbops , and yards , to refrain from work ca Suntla 3 > s and fe le days . The report was of extraordinary length , extending to not leiS than s : xty-fot : r printed octave * pages , and which declares , that a'l sviis , social and -moral , under which France ii at present labouring :, are to be attributed to the non-abssrvauea of ; hc sabbath .

      These idea ? , which were supported by long and energetic arguments , created an immea . se sensation . The Left received them with loud exclamations oi disapprobation , and even the members occupying the ministerial benches ssc-med more than once to be taken by surprise , by the exclusiveneta aud intolerance with « hich the whole report was stamped . When Count Montalambsrt had finished reading , several of the Moniagnards cried ' Amen , ' while o thers cried a Cbarenton' ( the lunatic asylum . ) There was very little spouse from the Moderate benches .

      The fele , in celebration of tha second anniversary of the election of Louis Napoleon as President of the Republic , whieh took place o ;; Tuesday eveuine , was exceedingly splendid , and has passed off without the sli g htest accident . The number of guests at the banquet was 180 , includi ng ih 8 President and Vice-Prtsi « ents of the Assembly , the representatives of the European Powers , the Ministers , Judges , MayoH of Paris , &e . The only toast was that of the President of the Republic , which was given by the Prefect of Seine . The speeches of the Prefect in proposing , and of the President io answering , were principally com posed of congratulations en the increasing ; tran *

      quillity of France , the improvement of trade , and the embellishments of the capital . The only political allusion was in the speech of Louts Napoleon , when he said that , ' notwithstanding the uncertainty of things , they mig ht reckon on the future , because it was known that if modifications were to be made in the government , they would be accomp lished without trouble . ' According to the ' Moniteur' this expression created a sensation . The speech was loudly applauded . The ' Kvenement' announces on the authority of shipping news from Marseilles that an insurrection had broken out at Palermo on the 27 th ult . This rumour remains as yet unsupported .

      GERMANY . The New Prnssische' says that the resolutions arrived at in Olmutz respecting Hesse Cassel , were as follows : — 1 . To solve the constitutional conflict in Hesse by two commissaries , one being appointed by Austria and her allies , and the other by Prussia and her allies . 2 . The town of Cassel to be occupied by a Prussian and an Austrain battalion . 3 . The Prussian troops to occupy the military roads in what s trength they pleaee .

      4 . The Austro-Bavarian , so called Bundestag army , to be reduced to that number necessary for the occupation of the Electorate . The remainder to retire . That portion remaining in the Electorate to occupy also the districts north of the military road . Herr Van Manteuffel , indignant at the general opposition which his interview with Prince Swarzen . berg and its results has roused , writhing under the lash of the bitter speech of Baron Vincke , the unexpected opposition of the semi-Liberal party , and the doubtful suppport of tbe Left , at this portentous moment persuaded the King to adjourn the Chamber . The measure was exppctpd by all but the members themselves , and when Manteuffel with his colleagues entered the Chamber on the 4 th , it was

      plain , from his agitation , and the great care which he paid to one sheet of paper , that something of importance was to be expected . The usual forrnnl proceedings having been got through , he arose , and read the royal decree adjourning the Chamber * until the 3 rd of January next . Great attention was paid to tbe perusal of this document ; but ere the slightest sign of satisfaction or displeasure could be manifested , the President declared the sitting over , and the Chamber separated at once , without any manifestation being made other than a few scattered hisses . In the galleries the decree was received with general laughter . The moment th « decree had been read , Manteuffel hurried from the ministerial bench with a rapidity quite unusual to his movements . Out-ide the Chamber a knot of a

      dozen persons had collected , hut all else in Berlin was quiet as usual . The second Chamber was also adjourned without any excitement being caused . The Frankfort papers of the 7 th inst . corroborate all the particulars of our correspondence of the same date ; but they add that another step has been taken towards the solution of the Hessian question by means of personal communications which have lately been established between the King of Prussia and the Elector . No particulars have , however , transpired as to the directions of the negotiations , the conduct of which , it is said , has been confided to Major Boddien .

      The Elector of Hesse has entirely changed his conduct . Since tbe pact of Olmuiz , which bas entirely dissipated his former anxieties , he will hear of no concessions . In consequence of the virtual recognition which Prussia thereby makes of the authority of the Diet , the Elector expects the complete servitude of his now quite defenceless electorate , and declared that he will remain quietly here till his new ally , M . Manteuffel , bas fulfilled the stipulations of O ' tnutz in his favour . To put an end to the street frays of the troops in Frankfort , marshal law was proclaimed by beat of drum for the whole garrison on the 7 th inst .

      The Dsutsche Reforme contains tbe following despatch : — Frankfort , Dec . 6 th . — ' The Olmutz convention reached Count Thun with tbe intimation , that he should procure the consent thereto of the governments represented at the Diet . But the convention produced , on the contrary , much discord in tbe Diet . Violent debates have taken place , and the most passionate expressions of anger against the cabinet of Vi-nna are heard frora persons from whom such expressions would be least expected . ' Altona . —On the 6 th a sharp encounter took place at Gellorf , with a Danish outpost . Among others two Danish officers were killed . Hanover , Dec . 4 . —There is here in preparation , at the instigation of the Ministry , a plan for the closer union of the North German middle and small

      states , with a view to their joint operation at the free conferences at Dresden , especially with respect to the protection of important relations between this state and Mecklenburg in tbe Steurverin ( tax union ) and tbe Hansiatic slates in their special free ' . ra ! e laws . The following is an authorised account of the Olmutz deputation : — ' At the private conferences held this day and yesterday between tbe undersigned , the following propositions were adopted as of a nature to solve the pending differences and to prevent a conflict , and wiil be submitted without delay to the respective governments for their sanction .

      ' 1 . The governments of Austria and of Prussia declare that it is their intention to effect a fioal settlement of the Hessian and Holstein questions by a decision in common of all German governments . 1 To render possible the co-operation of the governments who are represented at Frankfort , as also of all other German governments , a commissary shall be appointed with as little delay as possible for each government , as well as of those members of the Diet represented at Frankfort , as of Prussia and her allies . It will be the task of these commissaries to concert the measures tbat are to lie adopted .

      ' 3 . But as the common interests of all demand that in the Electorate of Hesse , as well as in Holstein , a legal state of things should be established responding to tbe princip les of the Diet , and rendering tbe fulfilment of the federal duties possible ; asmoreover , Austria , in its own name , and in the name of the States , its allies , has given full guarantees for the preservation of the kterestsjof Prussia , demanded by the latter with respect to the occupation of the Electorate , the governments of Austria and Prussia have agreed upon the following for the immediate treatment of the question , without prejudice for the future decision : —

      1 In the Electorate of Hesse , Prussia is to op . pose no obstacle to the action of the troops whose aid has been invoked by the Elector , to which end it . will issue the necessary orders to the generals there in command to allow free passage to those iroops through tbe military roads occupied by Prus > sia . The two governments of Austria and Prussia will , with the assent of their allies , request his Royal Hi ghness , the Elector , to give his consent that a battalion of the troops called in by tbe Electorate government , and a Prussian battalion , shall remain quartered in Cassel for the maintenance of order and peace .

      ' 6 . After consulting their allies , Austria and Prussia will send , with aB little delay as possible , commissaries , to call upon the SUdthoIderale , in the name of the Diet , to cease hostilities , to withdraw its troops beyond the Eider , and to reduce its army to one-tbird of its present numbers , under menace of joint-armed interference in case of refusal . On the other hand , both governments will induce the Danish government not to maintain any greater amount of troops in the Duehy of Schleswig than is necessary for the maintenance of quiet and order .

      1 4 . The ministerial conferences will be held without delay in Dresden . The invitations will be issued conjointly by Austria and Prussia , and in such gu se that tbe conference may be opened in the middle of December , Manteuffel . ' Olmutz , Nov . 29 . ' F . Schwarzenberg . ' The ' New Gazette of Prussia ' of tbe 6 th says — ' It is said in well-informed cire'es tbat the Bavarian Government has protested against the conventions agreed on in the conferences of Olmuiz . It considers them an infraction of tbe federal

      trea ies , inasmuch as they establish free conferences , and . suspend the Diet . Tbe government has consulted the cabinet of Wurtemburgh on the subject ; but , as to Saxony and Hanover , it does not count on them to support its views . It is said that the Bavarian Government openly declares ¦ . hat it will invoke the assistance of England and France , in favour of its ri ghts . The ' Deutsche Zeitung ' announces the disgrnce and the impending downfall of M . von der P ford ten , the Bavarian Premier , in consequence of 'he Olmutz conference . Count Bray is mentioned as the only man who has a chance of succeeding that unpopular Minister .

      The letters from Cassel in the 'Deutsche Zeitung , are filled with accounts of the ' revolting imprwioa' wWA the retreat of the Proww

      Untitled Article

      troops is alleged to have made on the inhabitants oi the Hessian capital . It is asserted that these feelings were shared by the troopsi As to the manner in which the retreat was effected , it is stated that the vanguard , in its positions in Herafeld and the entrenchments around that place , was alarmed at two p . m . of the 3 rd inst . ; that the troops were informed of the advance of the Bavarians ; and tbat all necessary measures were taken to oppose aud repel the enemy . Great alacrity was manifested by the troops , and the greatest excitement pr evailed . The same measures were taken in the Prussian camps at Schenkleugsfeld and Friedsweld .

      A letter from Hamburgh says .: — The last intelligence which we have received from Copenhagen is to the 1 st . A rumour was then very g enerally disseminated that the jKing of Denmark bad determined to separate from ^ drae . Rasmussen whom he had not long since married , after having raised her to the dignity of Countess . The motives of this abrupt separation $ ere not very well known . It was , however , said that , as the price of this matrimonial rupture , the Countess Rasmussen had ensured to herself , independently of the property already settled on her , a pension of 35 , 0007 a year . ' \

      For a considerable time reports have been rife in Hamburgh and in . Altona of an approaching change in the command of the array . That which appeared then most unlikely has now come to pass . General Willisen has received his dismissal at Rensburgh , and the command has been provisionally conferred on Major-General von Horst . This event betokens a change in the war system . And it may be concluded thatiGeneral Horst ( formerly a Prussian colonel ) bas , as is generally believed , determined to act with a resolution independent of the Stadtholderate .

      The members of the opposition met after the adjournmen t of the chamber , and resolved to resume their places of opposition to the government on the 3 rd of January , exactly at that point where they were interrnpted by the adjournment of the 4 th of December . Herr von Manteuffel has had several interviews with the Prince of Prussia since his return from Olmutz . The Prince is said to maintain bis warlike views , and to be extremely indignant with the settlement come to at Olmutz .

      AUSTRIA . Vienna , Dec 4 . —The cngagemeats entered into at Olmulz , of which the leadin ? features are known to the public , have caused general satisfaction at this place , always excepting with the army , which , as natural with soldiers , and above all with soldiers to whom battles have been familiar during two years , i 9 disappointed at being deprived of an opportunity of adding to its laurels ; and , what ia more sensibly felt by officers and men , an opportunity of replying , sword in hand , to \ he Scbleswig-Holstein-like vaultings of the Prussian journals . .

      The Austrian troop 3 who assist Pio Nono to keep down his people are paid out of the taxes levied by the spiritual head of the Catholic Church from hi ; grumbling subjects . The French Iroops whom Louis Napoleon lends his Holiness for the same pious purpose are supported out of the taxes raised by the people of France . The Pope naturally prefers the French mode of doing business , and , therefore , he is endeaveuring to get the whole of his execrable police work done—on the cheap system—by what Michelet calls the holy bayonets of France . '

      PRUSSIA . Tbe march of troops caminues with undiminished activity throughout the Prussian provinces . It would seem tbat the government is disposed to complete the different array corps to their full amount before an attempt is made to reduce battalions or squadrons —a most costly experiment , and one that seems utterly useless , i f , as we are told , peace is secured , if we are to believe assertions made by the ' Reforme , ' tbe Federal Assembly at Frankfort is extremely dissatisfied with the results of the arrangements made byAustria and Prussia . It regards these arrangements as an abandonment by Austria of the States drawn by ber influence into the league , and subjected thereby to the raost hostile assaults of their own Chambers and people , as well as to the danger of a quarrel with Prussia .

      Letters from the Kussian-Posen frontier state that the Russian army has been , or rather is being , increased . This wes tho natural consequence of the mobilising of the Prussian army . The Berlin ' Constitutional ! ' is the most unfortu . nate of journals ; its editor is banished from the capital without any legally pioved offence ; it is seized two or three times a week by the police ; and now it is proscribed in Saxony ; the last number of the 'Dresden Journal' con tarns a decree , lorbidding it to be published or circulated in that capital ; the reason given is' tbat it has published matter calculated

      to excite haired of tbe Saxon government , and intelligence injurious to the public security of the State . ' On the other hand , the Democratic journals appear to enjoy an immunity from persecution at present . The ' National' disowns the parliamentary opposition , and is not enthusiastic for a war , ' as the Constitutionalists understand it ; ' so far it is on thn side of the Ministry , and in the censorship that still exists over the press ( which differs from the old one mostly in the fact that it is exercised after tbe publication instead of before it ) , a considerable allowance is made for the language of articles that on the whole tend to support the policy of the Cabinet .

      The Court of Appeal of Prussia having hnd a caste submitted to if , in which the validity of tbe defence in a political prosecution turned on the point whether the penal code of the old German Confederation and the Constitution of that body are still inexistence , and decided in the affirmative . The day for the meeting of the Dresden conference is , it appears , definitely fixed for the 18 th inst ., and , so far as can be ascertained , business will be pushed forward with all possible celerity , so as to enable the Prussian Cabinet to meet the Chambers upon the 3 rd of January with the groundwork of decisions , in so far , at least , as regards the most palpitating questions .

      The Vienna papers state that the continuance of the Austrian armaments will depend on the results of the crisis which has been created in Prussia by the prorogation of parliament . In tbe interim the directors of the Northern Railway have been commanded to prepare for the transport of 25 , 000 troops , weicb are now leaving Gallicia for Ostraw and Hobenstadt , on the frontiers of Bohemia . The advices of the German papers from Cassel confirm the news of the advance of tbe Bavarian troops . They have entered Zigenhain , and are preparing to occupy Treisa . Large masses of Prussian troops hav ; passed through Cassel on their way back into Westphalia .

      The negotiations between the Elector and the inhabitants of Cassel have as yet had no result , and the ' Kolner Zeitung' states tbat the Prince has returned to his former obstinacy ever since he was informed of the particulars of the Olmutz arrangements . . A league is concluding between Oldenburgh , Hanover , and the Hanse Towns . They engage to support one another at the Dresden Conferences .

      BADEN . The Prussian garrison has been completely withdrawn ( tooi Rastadt , which will henceforth be occupied by a portion of the Baden Infantry contingent , and by the usnal detachment of Austrian artillery . Baden has , it appears , fallen off completely from the Prussian Union ; without , however , breaking with Prussia , or without joining the Frankfort Assembly . SAXONY .

      In the sitting of the Second Dresden Chamber , on the 2 nd inst ., M . D . Behr , Minister of Finance , stated to the house that ha had every reason to believe that peace would not be interrupted , and thai the free conferences fur the re-organisation of the Federal Constitution , anil the settlement of olhtr collateral questions , would meet in a short time at Dresden- ^ measures that would of course enable the government to reduce its armaments .

      DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES . According to the Holstein journals , the Danish array is so reduced that it does not reckon more than 40 . 000 men on paper , while tbe insurgents are stated tu have as many tffectives . Should an engagement ensue , and in eriority of numbers be p leaded as excuse for defeat , or additional cause for triumph in case of success , these declarations must be borne in mind .

      HUNGARY . Complaints have arrived from the frontiers of Bohemia that the Croalisns stationed in the neighbourhood come over the boundaries and infest the Prussian villages by begging . The Austrian armament is vigorously continued ; 20 , 000 men are to be collected at Cracow , while Lemberg will be garriioned with 27 , 000 Russians . ITALY .

It is said that Lurd Minto describes the embarrassment in wbich the government of her Britannic Majesty is placed , aud ascribes to tbe waut of prudence with which the bull , erecting Westminster a diocese , has been published , the painful consequences the Roman Catholics will have to undergo , should the present Ministry not be able to protect them and treat them with tho impartiality which characterises the policy of Lord John Russell . Lord Minto , it appears , concludes by expressing a hope that the Pope will adopt some measure calculated to remedy the evil and calm the general effervescence of the country .

      Letters from Naples s tate that Baron de Riso , wlio was recently decorated by tbe King , was stabbed with a poignard , as he was leaving the theatre , on the 27 th ult . ; and that M . Sedato had been shot at and wounded . The latter took part in the revolutionary movement , but lately joined the Royalists .

      THE LEVANT . The 'Journal de Constantinople' confirms the intelligence of the pacification of Bosnia by Omfir Pacha . Mebemet Pacha , the new Governor-General of Aleppo , left Constantinople on tbe 17 th for bis post . Additional troops were sent to Aleppo on the same day . The litest intelligence from the latter place is , tbat after the defeat oi the rebels by Kirira Pacha , they attempted to attack Aleppo again on the following day , their numbers having been recruited during the night by some bands of Arabs , This second attack , however , was not more

      successful than the first , as the insurgents were a second time entirely defeated , leaving about a hundred prisoners in the hands of the Imperial troops . Abdulla Bey , whose duplicity since tbe commencement of tlie late troubles had attracted the attention of the government bas been arrested . We learn from the ' Obsmaieur d'Athenes * that the Senate assembled on the 21 st ult ., and commenced its labours by some preliminary business . The Chamber held its first regular sitting on the 25 di , under the presidency of M . Metaxa , the senior member . The verification of powers and the formation of the bureaux occupied the whole sitting .

      CAPE OF GOOD HOPE . The proposed constitution for the Cape of Good Hope sent out by Earl Grey , does not seem to grow in favour with the colonists . The prcsi-( ieucy of the First Chamber , proposed by Earl Grey to be in her Majesty , is rejected even by ihe Government Commission , and by the municipal authorities totally repudiated . The Governmeut proposals , almost in every article , are far short of the requirements and intelligence of tbe colony . The inhabitants , as on the convict question , have deliberately made up their minds ; rejection of their suggestion is sure to evoke an irresistable opposition . A constitution for the Cape will never be graciously received unless it thoroughly embodies the English representative principle .

      Disturbances have again broken out on the Kaffir frontier of the Cape of Good Hope , the native tribes being the aggressors . It does nrt seem that the malcontents wert very formidable in numbers , but still appearances were sufficientl y menacing to induce his Excellency the Governor General ( Sir H . Smith ) to repair without delay to the scene of strife , in order to ascertain the cause and pxtent of the outbreak , and to adopt such measures as he mi g ht deem necessary far its speedy suppression . AMERICA .

      There is some distress in the manufacturing districts of New England . Maw than 300 , 000 spindles have been recently stopped in the cotton manufactories at Lowell and elsewhere in Massachusetts , and they do say 700 , 000 spindles in all the Northern States . About half the Maryland cotton factories have suspended , but in Pennsylvania verv few have stopped , if any . The manufacturers attribute all this to the tariff of 1846 ; but the very hsyh price of the raw . material , and the introduction of cotton mills in the South are probably the principal causes of the depression . The following news has been received by the Royal mail steam-ship Cambria , Cap . Leitcb , which arrived in the Mersey about noon on Wednesday .

      The excitement regarding the Fugitive Slave Bill , whice ran very hig h during the late elections , now occupies but little of public attention in the Northern States . By a comparison of the leading features of the returns made in Massachusetts with the previous returns of 1840 valuable results are attained ; among them none are more apparent than the fallacy of the Protectionist doctrine so prevalent there , which

      supposes that an increase of manufacturers increases the home demand for agricultural produce . The number of active persons , and of various manufacturing establishments now in operation , show a great and invariable increase over those recorded in 1840 , while , on the other hand , as marked , and almost as invariable a decrease , has taken place in the numbers of farm stock and quantities of farm produce .

      It appears from returns that in the manufacturing districts the number of operatives have increased thirty per cent ., and the number of dwellings something more than forty per cent . Every branch of manufacturing industry show ? an immense increase , more particularly shipping , and cotton and woollen factories . Tha increase of cotton spindles is ninety per cent ., wbich would alone account for rauchol tbe depression now existing through competition of the mills . Every description of manufactory shows the same result in a greater or less

      degree , and the towns in which they are located are connected by an increase of 800 miles of railroad . Yet , with all this marked augmentation of prosperity , both in manufactures and shipping , it does not appear , as it should do ( if the Protectionist principle is correct ) , tbat the farmers of Massachusetts have built up a home-market of steady and lucrative demand for themselves . On the contrary , the increasing demand for food has been met by a decrease of production to almost the same extent , the deficiency having been made up by imports from New York and tbe Suutb .

      The advices from San Francisco ate to the evening of the 16 tb ult ., and it is said that there has been a further arrival of California gold at Panama for the United States , amounting to 1 , 500 , 000 dollars . Great rejoicings had taken place in California , in consequence of the arrival of the news that she had been formally received by Congress as a State of the United States . There is no important intelligence from the mining districts , vihete the usual alternations of good aud ill luck prevailed , and quietness and order—a few murders excepted—seemed to be mtored . And althoug h there was immense grumbling among the majority of the miners , yet

      gold dust was pouring into San Francisco in large quantities . StckneBS prevailed in the mines , where the deaths were numerous ; but the horrors on the overland rout have been appalling — thousands , literall y thousands , have perished frora fatigue hunger , thirst , and cholera , on the plains , particularly in the Ninety-mile Desert . There had been several skirmishes between the miners and Indians —the savages having been alwa js worsted . From Havann&h we learn that the new Captain-General Conda has arrived at Havannab , and entered upon his duties . He was said to be rapidly gaining in public favour .
