The wonder would be if it had arrived. We tre too grateful for those we roccasionally receive, to grumble at so tri- / Sings disappointment, as the failure of some kalfdosenof them.

Whether the letter will have any effect up. on the approaching Congress of Sovereigns la doubtful—we fear the cold-blooded po licy of the Holy Alliance is not to bo tnov- nod by the language of truth or justice.

But I am convinced that the people of thie state are not very anxious for representatives of this character.” A correspondent in Liber'y county oh aervea—“The county of Libc»y contains three hundred and seventy-four white males above the age of twenty-one years, and four thousand eight hundred and se venty seven slaves: pays an annual lax fur the support of the ata-.e government of about two thouannd eight hundred dollars, and from one fourtli to one half aa much fur local purposes. O ily three authorised •etailers of spirituous liquors reside within .it* limit*.

He was said to be in Mexico, endeavouring to obtain a grant truni the government, which it was feared would not be obtained, •a it was required that all the settler' must be Catholics, none other being permitted to settle in the province- The rich Spaniards, it is added, were leaving the Mcxicun Provinces, in constqu nec of the truublesume ap pearance ol the times, with their pro perty. JV*ctr Steam it'pgitte.—Thni, Hat- Ion, an intelligent mechanician of Phi ladelphia, has constructed the model of a ateatn engine, in which the prn- ffelling power in applied in a in nine, atluge'her different Irom that in which (team has been used heretofore. 1 he following desciiption uf it is given in the National Gazette t—“ The model consists of a wheel ol bruit, about six Inches in diameter, nn the periphery of which the 6team is applied in thorn berg, formed by the wheel and a me tal rim which surrounds it. The steam introduced into these chambers, acts upon blocks uf metal or pistons clos ing the chambms, and m kesstrukes almost equal in length to die circum ference ol the wheel. The macliin cry fur inducting and educting the ateam is ingenious and well adapted to its object. The advantages prnpo Bed by the inventor are simplicity and -economy in the cost nt runstructian, in the consumption el fuel, and in the number of hands necessary to work it. A« the motion is rotary, he avoids thereby the necessity of the balance wheel, and the loss ol time between the ascent and descent ol the pistons. The weight will not exceed half that ol an ordinary engine, and it will nut occupy oiote ihau ball Uietuum. The Nw-l'ork, Oct. 4 —The Bnlina, a) Boston, sailed from Ponce, Aug. Gilt, Left the Gen'.
