rate of 200 lbs. per day. The Huntsville Ban ner of the 3d inst. says: The health of the country is good, weather favorable and crops abundant. The cotton is opening beautifully, and the farmers are begin ning to gather it. The papers contain a long letter from Sena ter Houston, suggested by ex-President Ty ler’s late letter upon the negotiations to secure the Annexation of Texas. The letter belongs to the history of Annexation, but we cannot give place to it to-day. The Civilian soberly and earnestly complains j of the want of mail facilities for Texas. Six teen days had elapsed when the editor was writing, without a mail from New Orleans. It is intolerable that the Government should main tain a monopoly of the carriage of letters, and yet allow a State like Texas to be cut oft from intercourse with the rest ol the Union for a longer period than the merchants of New York and Liverpool would tolerate in their inter course. As a matter of purely patriotic con- | eern, Texas should be bound as closely as pos sible to the old Sates by frequency of inter course; but by all means Galveston and New Orleans should have a fixed, sure and rapid means of communicating, nor would it be bur densome to the Government if rightly manag ed. The Galveston News contradicts a report that the yellow fever was prevailing in that city. | The rumor arose from the sudden decease of a gentleman from Tampico. The News says the | yellow fever had nothing to do with his care. ! From Pensacola—Naval Intelligence. By our private correspondence we learn that ' the U. S. steam frigate Mississippi, Sidney | Smith Lee, lieutenant commanding, arrived at I Pensacola on the 11th inst., in five days from | Vera Cruz, The Mississippi brought over for the ! naval hospital 114 officers, seamen and marines , belonging to the home squadron. Os theuum- ! her taken from the other vessels of the squad- ! rou, none had died on the passage, and none of j the 144 were confined to their hammocks, i Though invalids, they were able to be about, , Mid the sickness could not be considered dan- j gerous. Among the sick are Surgeon Lewis ; Minor and Passed Assistant Surgeon John Thornley. All communication between the Mississippi j n I the shore had been interdicted, so that little i news transpired. Com. Perry had transferred his Hag to the sloop of war Germantown. The fever was prevailing to a considerable extent on board the sloop of war Decatur. Mid shipman Carmichael had recently died of it. It was supposed at Pensacola that the Mis issippi would shortly return to Vera Cruz, as ; her crew is in tolerable health. Her arrival 1 had led to some delay in despatching the ! Mehooner Flirt to Vera Cruz. Surgeons G eo. Ten-ill and W. A. YV. Spots- \ wood have been ordered to report to Com. Per- ; ry for duty in the home squadron.

Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry It is not often that we find amongst the Medical Faculty sufficient candor to accord any merit whatever to “Patent Medicines” as it conflicts with their interest so to do—hut below we give an exception: ‘OPINION OF Y REGULAR PHYSICIAN. Exeter, Me., Sept. 30, 1845. This certifies that 1 have recommended the use of \N istar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry for diseases of the lungs, for two years past, and maiiy bottles, to. ruy knowledge have been used by ray patients, all with beneficial results.

The salivarr i glands no longer send forth a healthy flow, and the Liver issues acrid bile. Then follows acidity of the stomach, eructation of wind, distress of eating, op pression of the precordia, headache and nausea, tremulous sensations, and a variety of other pecu liar feelings known only to the sufferer. For these and kindred diseases a new remedy has dawned ■vpoa the world, having for it object the relief of suf- j Bering humanity. SANDS’ SARSAPARILLA, i entirely vegetable composition, is in its opera tion peculiar, entering into the circulation, thus •coming in contact with the germ or cause of dis ease, and displacing unhealthy secretions by ex- ; •tending its influence to every part of the body, and .causing a general reaction, when health succeeds debility and disease.

AUG. 3 LATEST DATES FROM HA VRj .....JULY 31 Extract of a letter received in (his city, dated . “LI VERPOOL, Aug. 3.—The harvest is progres sing under the most favorable circumstances in the Southern countries, and has partially commenced in this district. The reports of blight have in a | great measure died away, and generally speaking j the crops of Wheat, Oats aud Barley arc repre sented as unusually abundant, and of superior quail- j ty. The less important crop of Beans, has partial ly failed. The accounts from the Continent speak almost universally of the most prolific crops “Under the influence of this and of continued heavy foreign supplies, the Corn markets have gone down rapidly to a lurlher important extent, and are in a state of panic. It has been impossible to realize except in the retail way for ten days ora lortnight past, and now the quotations are 275. a27s. Gd. for the best Western Canal Flour; Philadelphia aud Baltimore, warranted sweet, 2Gs. a 2Gs. Gd., sour 21s. a 235. Indian Corn, sound, 265. a 30s. per i quarter, down to 20s. a 245. for parcels unsound and ; heated. Indian Corn Meal 14s per bbl. At auc tion to-day, some parcels Indian Corn, which had been slightly heated, but now in good condition, i sold at 235. per quarter, and sour Western Canal Flour at 21s. Gd. a 235. Gd. per bbl., with some prime ' Indian Corn Meal at 14s. per bbl. There have been | some failures in the Corn trade, and more appre- bended, causing much distrust, and altogelhcr'the trade is in an extraordinary state of depression. “We had a quiet Cotton market for ten days and unusually limited business with a decline of about J d per lb., but since the arrival of the Boston I steamer of the 16th ultimo, there has been some in crease of demand and more firmness and this de : dine has been partially recovered. The more fa vorable aspect of the market is to be attributed to the accounts of the American growing crop being so exceedingly unpromising in the Atlantic States —and also precarious in the Western States from the late season. More decided confidence in the result of the Harvest has contributed to the firm ness of holders, but they have however to-day again shown more disposition to sell. The sales for the week ended 23rd ultimo amounted to 25510 bales of which 2000 were taken on speculation and 2500 for export, and for the week ended 30th ultimo the business was ISI3O hales of which 2700 was on j speculation and 1000 to exporters. “The transactions for the last three day's to this evening have been about 18,.300 bales, about GOOO ,ol it being to speculators aud exporters. Fair Up land is quoted 1%, fair Mobile 7| and fair Orleans 1 7£ per lb. The stock in this port is now estimated at 410,000 bales against 760,000 at same period last season, —the stock of American is about 310,000, i being a decrease of 224,000 bales. The trade of the spinners is unsatisfactory though somewhat I less disastrous than some time ago. The diminish ed production of goods and yarns has brought their value more nearly on a par with the raw material, bu( still relatively below it and it is only the* ap prehension of another short American crop, and | the hope of an improved trade, from good harvests, ths.l sustain the Cotton market.” [ Correspondence of the Constitutionalist .l By Telegraph.
