E The British mail steamship Niagara arrived at Liverpool on Sunday the 17th ult., and the U. S. mail steamship Baltic, on Tuesday tho 19th ult. The Liverpool Markets.— The demand for Cotton has been active, but there has been no change in prices. The market on the 19th ult., Wits firm and 12,000 bales changed hands —making a total for the three days of 30,000 bales, of which speculators took 3,000, and ex porters 6,000 bales. State of Ikade.—Trade in Manchester has slightly improved. The French funds on the 19th ult. experi enced a decline. The Turkish Question. — In the British House of Lords on the 18th ult., Lord Claren don stated that an answer in entire comformity with the note published by the French Govern ment, had been returned by the English Gov ernment to the last Diplomatic note of Count Nesselrode. Eastern affairs are regarded in Paris and London as more pacific. Proposi tions for a compromise reached St. Petersburg on the 9th of July, and the Russian Cabinet evinced a disposition to negotiate. It was be lieved that a reply would have reached Lon don on the 22d ult. Advices from Constantinople to the 9th ult., -State that military preparations are stH! being made, and that orders have been Issued to acb mit the French and English fleets at any mo ment into the Dardanelles. A conspiracy against the Sultan has been discovered, and fif teen or the leaders were executed. The object of the oonspirators was to depose the Sultan, and place his brother on the throne, and then to declare instant war against Russia. A dis patch from Constantinople says that England, France and Germany, had agreed upon the basis of an arrangement which is to be proposed to Turkey r.nd Russia. The headquarters of the Russian Army had been established at Bucharest, the capitol of Wallnchia, and the entrepot for the Commerce of Austria and Turkey. It is said that 80,000 men were encamped in its environs. Advices from Vienna to the Kith ult., state that large bodies of troops were still marching South, and that seventy-two guns of heavy calibre arrived at Jassy on the 9th of July. of corn from Naples has been jrohibited. The Smyrna Advices from Smyrna state that the American and Austrian ships of war had determinated to fight, and had cleared for action, when the British and French Consuls interforred, and Costa was de livered to the French Consul for safe custody until the matter should be ‘■.. ranged at Con stantinople. Affairs in China. —The advices from Chi na are to the 14th of May. The insurgents had raised the banner of Christianity, and had translated and extensively circulated the Bijor, which had created immenso excitement and seemed likely to lend to the total destruction of the Tartar race. They also, had possession of Nankin, which is represented to be in ruins, and the whole district in a state of anarchy.— They were preparing to march upon Pekin as soon ns they received their expected reinforce ment from the South. [From the New Orleans Daily True Delta.] Further from Texas. The hulk of the Texas mail, brought by the steamship Mexico, which arrived early yesterday afternoon, we received from the post office this morning. Tho San Antonio Ledger says there are 500 children in daily attendance at school in that City. Os this number 275 are in the public or corpora tion schools. The Victoria Advocate, of the 23d ult., says: Mr. E. Benuet informs us that his sugar cane is very promising this season. lie has stocks, six joins of which have already ripened. He thinks lie will average two hogsheads of sugar to the aero. Although Mr. Bennet is making sugar upon a small scale, liis experiments, thus far, have shown that great profit result from the business if carried on extensively, and with adequate force. Two hands have performed all the work of culti vating his cane, sixteen acres; and fifteen acres of corn, which he thinks will yield fifty bushels to the acre. A portion of his cane was planted six vears ago last fall, which will produce as well as that which was planted more recently. There can be no doubt that a portion of West ern Texas is peculiarly adapted, by climate and soil, to the culture of sugar. An affray occurred in the streets of Matagorda on the 16th ult., between Terry Rend and Jack Carroll, which resulted in the stabbing and sub sequent death of Carroll. The latter, it appeared was the aggressor. Read, after an investigation, was released, the case being held to be one of justifiable homicide. The Matagorda Tribune of the 23d ult. says: We learri that a considerable degree of sickness .continues to prevail in some portions of the inte rior, in the shape of local fevers and dysentery. We hear of very little sickness, however, among our neighboring towns along the sea-cost. Mata gorda continues to enjoy uninterrupted good health. Messrs. Upshur and Brown returned to Austin, gra the 19th ult., from an excursion to the head waters of the Pecan Bayou, where they fc'd been since June engaged in locating lands. The State Gazette says: They succeeded in making a largo number of locations of the very choicest lands, containing water and timber in aliundnncc. Their company all enjoyed good health during their arduous trip, and returned wUwW any accident of any con sequence. They saw hut few Indians, and those they met were ull friendly disposed. * - 1 1 1 The country abounds in game, and the oompa pany captured several valuable American horses running wild on the prairies, supposed to have been carried there by runaway negroes. On their return they captured, just above Hamilton’s Val ley, three runaway negroes, a woman and two men. aud brought them into town, The negroes stay they belong to a Mr. Roberta, a negro trader, •from whom they absconded either in Arkansas or Louisiana. They say they were purchased in Vir ginia by Roberts, Gold in East Tennessee. —The Arhens Post of the 22d ult,, says: ■We have seen within a few days, several speci mens of gold found in the adjoining county. There is no mistake about it—the richest sort of speci mens, and plenty pf them, were those shown us were obtained, baler from Europe. ARRIVAL OF THE NIAGARA. Baltimore, August 4, 8. 8., P. M.—The British Mai! steamship Niagara has arrived at Halifax, N. S.. from Liverpool, which port she left on the 28d ult. Liverpool M'.rkets.—The Baltic’s advices had a favorable effect on tho Cotton market, and ull qualities had Blightly advanced, fair and middling from a sixteenth to an eighth of a penny.

An extensive business had been transacted at firm prices, tho demand for tho home trade and speculators, having been large. The sales on the 23d ult, wore 11,000 bales, making an aggregate for the weok of 86,000 bales, of which speculators took 13,500, and ex porters 7,300 bales, leaving 65,200 bales to the trade. The estimated stock of cotton in Liverpool 850,000 bales. Rico was firm and active, and 90 tierces changed hands at 255. por cwt The Manchester market was firm.

The Turkish Question. —There is no longer any apprehension of a war between Russia aßd Turkey, as the difficulties have been nearly adjusted. Alabama Election. CONGRESS. Abercrombie, Independent, is elected in tbe Second District by above 1,000 majority over Clopton, Democrat. Lockwood, Whig, is reported to be elected over Phillips, Democrat, in the First District, though there is still some room for doubt, as Marengo is not heard from, and the reported majority of 550 for Lockwood, in Butler coun ty, is believed to be incorrect. Harris, Democratic nominee, is re-elected in the Third District over Smith, Southern Rights, by a large majority. Dowdell, Democratic nominee, is elted in the Seventh over Garrett, Independent*Demo crat, by a largo majority. It is reported that he carried Benton by 1,500 majority.

In looking over the advices from China, re ceived by way of San Francisco, we find some most shocking details of the barbarities perpe trated by the Chinese insurgents. Jtheir exas peration against the Manchows seems to know no bounds. At the capture of Nankin, their cruelties to these people w ore hi most unparallel ed in the atrocities of war. The accounts say : Having decoyed seven hundred of Ms nohow women into a building under pretence of get ting them married to Chinese people, they ruthlessly set fire to the whole, and reduced them to ashes. They then registered, the in mates of every house in Nanain, and the next day went through the city, comparing the list withrfhe inhabitants found in each dwelling, when, if thev found more than the number giv en in, (a very likely case,) they killed the odd members, They then pressed every Chinese into the army from fifteen to forty-five, killing the children us useless, appropriating the young er women, and making the older ones cooks and scullions. They also engaged in an indis criminate slaughter of the Bubhist priests. Horrible Affair. Assassination.— A correspondent gives us full particulars of the assassination of Mr. Alplieus Jones, by Dr. Miller, at Barnes’ precinct in this county, which wc mentioned briefly a few days since. “Ono of the most bloody deeds on record, was not long since committed by the linoentioßs and unprincipled wretch, Dr. S. M. W. I). L. Miller, on the person of Mr. Alplieus Jones, a respectable citizen of this county. Tho facts in relation to this outrage are as follows : Said Miller had, for some months, been in the employment of said Jones, and on tl*e night of the sth of June last, ‘ Jones’ wife left his couch and crept softly to that of Dr. Miller; to which place Jones soon followed her, and attempted to drag her out of the bed; but while doing this Miller cruelly stabbed and chopped him with a huge knife, which is supposed to have been concealed about tho bed. After re ceiving many death-dealing strokes from this mid night assassin, Jones, with his entrails in his hands, fled to the house of his neighbor, Mr. Supples, to which place he was pursued by Mrs. Jones and Miller, who had a double?! barrelled gun. Fortunately, Jones, who was judicious enough to nbandon tho road and take to the woods, reached there before them, and fell ex hausted in the door just as they arrived at tho gate. Not being allowed entrance, they both re turned to Jones’ house. After ransacking the house for Jones’ money, (about $400,) but which, during their absence, hud been secured by Jones’ mother, nil aged and decrepid lady, Miller mount ed his horse, and took to flight. Mr. Jones has lain in ahopeless and deplorable condition at the house of Miv Supples over since, until his death on Friday last. Miller escaped on a black stallion, with a white face, taking with him a pair of physician’s saddle bags—black patent eyes, covers. He (Miller.) is a man of low, diminutive stature, black hair and contracted brow, nnd rather feminine voice. Said Miller is a South Carolinian by biiib, and has re lations in Alabama and Florida—to the former or latter of which places ho may have made his escape. This unmitigated scoundrel should he arraigned and brought to justice. It is hoped that his Ex cellency, tho Governor, will issuo a proclamation offering a reward sufficient to authorize this un dertaking. There are many individuals who will readily pursue the author of this bloody deed who yet goes unwhipped of justice, mid appre hend him, nnd bring him beforo the tribunal of our country. All newspaper publishers who would arrest the career of this villain, will please insert this in their columns. We have heard it hinted that Miller was shot at, and probably killed, by a party in pursuit of him. This, however, has no better foundation than vague rumor. —Alabama Journal. Dttatli of Col. mists. A dispatch in another column announces the death of Col. Bliss, U. S. Army, at Pascagoula, yesterday, of yellow fever. Among its crowds of victims, none will be more regretted than the accomplished and gallant officer, whose death in the prime of a well spent and honorable ca reer we now deplore. Modest and unassuming in his deportment, a gallant soldier, a true gen tleman, a good citizen in every position in which he was placed, he so acquitted himself as to elicit commendation, and the respect and admiration of his fellow citizens. Wherever he was known —in the camp, in the cabinet, in the social circle—he was beloved. lie follow-t to the silent tomb the brave old chief under whose victorious banner he gallantly served and ac quired well merited distinction, who early saw and appreciated his merits, in him pineal a well-founded confidence, and gave hitn his be loved daughter in marriage. A noble spirit has departed. Honor to his memory. Peace to his ashes. After the above was .ip type, we received a communication, in relation to the death ot Col. Bliss, from an esteemed correspondent, in which he says:—A r . 0. Daily True Delta . Upon the public life and merits ofoncsowell and widely known, eulogy would be wasted.— We knew and now speak of him only as he appeared in private life, as a true-hearted, high toned, worthy gentleman, of mild and polished manners, an apt and well read scholar, an el egant writer, and still, endowed with all the native modesty of merit. Skilled alike in arts andrarm%jailm and capable, whether amid the cannon's iron hail at Buena Vista, by his Gen era™ side, or, afill by his side as his son-in-law uud private Secretary when the noble old sol dier was called by the nation's voice to the Presidential Cfflir, in every station lie appear ed fS advantaip, in civil as in military life. — Few men were of a more retiring disposition, of more unostentatious worth. How loved, how honored by those who knew lrim best, let the sorrow shown at his loss tell more unmistabably than these few’ words of tribute to his memory from a comparative stranger. > Sadly has President Taylor’s family been visited. Father, mother husband—all, within a brief interval, has the Destroyer swept away —but not to oblivion. “Sit illis terra lovis.” From Havana.— The Mobile Register lias a letter from a correspondent dated Havar 1 duly 29, from which we extract as follows : ■ Since iny last, by the Empire City, our business has been dull, as becoming the soason, the tonnage ill port, and the low prices of our lending articles in the United States. Transactions of sugars have been slight, as holders have not been inclined to part with them at any reduction in figures. The U. S. sloop of war Albany has been cruising off this port since the 21st, waiting vi communieato with the Commodore of the Home Squadron on matters of business, and in reference to certain throe American seamen held unjustifiably in prison hero, and six secreted on the Cargo Cortes —former part’of the orew’ of the bark Jasper, which landed a cargo of negroes on the south side, reported some time since, but denied by this government. Yet these men are detained for the offence committed by the Jasper. . , llr. Julian Znlneta has just been released from the Capanas Fort, on the promise of better conduct that is, to be more covert in liis business nego tiations with the coast of Africa. The officers of the Spanish Government have at last actually seized a slaver, but have not captured the negroes, although it is supposed they will ob tain them —some 700, landed nearßatamauo, south side. The officers and crew have been brought to Havana, and are in prison. D. Francisco Marty is endeavoring to patch up his late kidnapping of Indians on the coast of 1 u catan, to obtain the appearance of honest purpose but the discovery has been too broad for cover, and ho will be made to return all that can bo found, with payment for labor and damages. The action of the late Mexican Consul here, m furnishing sea protection to the pirate ship “Lady Suffolk,” has been completely exposed. The docu ments represent that they are based upon certined papers by Judge Sharkey, Ac., which were never issued from hi3 office. ‘Mr. Vivo will probably be recalled bv Santa Anno, f-ora his Ministerial charge at Madrid to explain, or account for these I hings Affecting Storv— The Memphis Appeal, ofFri day last, says: A most touching case, illustrative of Conjugal love, occurred at our wars a few days since. A man nnd his wife were coming up the river, when the husband took sick and was supposed to’ died. When they arrived at this city, the wife had a coffin purchased, anl her husband wns deposited in that Inst home of the dead. Just before the moment of eliding the coffin, however, and the final intermenj|of! the deceasod, the bereaved and ngomted wile insisted upon once more looking up on and embrnjbtg the 4, 1d remains of tho deceas ed partner Whether it washer warm embrace or returning consciousness, certain it is that the supposed corpse suddenly evinced signs of lifo, uni, the pVoper restoratives being applied, within twenty-fohr hours tho invalid wns enabled to proceed oil hisfjournoy, with every pros pect of a speedy reooviry, owing his life to the untiring devotion and 1 eke'of his true and faithful wife.

That is tho quickest Ivay we can think of to go raving, distracted, m*l.—N. Y. Pic. The Fever in Pißladslphia.— A few days ago, says the N. O. Tru Delta, we had a dispatch sta ting that a disease, closely resembling ycllov fever, had brultfß .tint in Philadelphia, brought thither by foreign vessels, and that there wns much alarm in consequence. A Philadelphia dis patch of the 26 h ult., to the N. Y. Commercial Advertiser, thus notices tho appearnneo of the disease : A severe form'of billions fever lias broken out violently on the South wharves in this city. Seven persons have already died. Tho disease is sup posed to have been brought into this city by ves sels passing the quarantine. The bark Mandarin, which arrived this morning from Cienfuegos, lost two of her hands by the fever. The night cus tom house officer, who boarded her was also at tacked, and died hi a few hours after. Indiana. —The R. W. Lodge I. O. O.
