nbwYokl Jane, 12.—The Collins steam-

«ráiag, with intelligence from Liverpool to
tUSdiut, •nd to eorrespndlngly late dates

awt generally. As will be seen, her news
is ia all respects of much interest.

psr pound; for fair Uplands, 6|d. Of die
sale# the week, speculators are reported
to have taken 80,000 bales, and exporters

Breadstuff .
The Liverpool breadstuff market does
aet appear to present any change of mo-
Tbe spanish Cortes, according to tl;
at accounts received from Madrid,
The flour market is in all respects in
Mfli the same condition as at last advices.
The wheat market is likewise reported
unchanged.
Indian corn had experienced no change,
either in price or otherwise.
, Provisions*
The Liverpool provision market is also
reported without change.
Isiey, Consols, te-,
Consols are reported firm, with quotations
standing at 63J per cent, at the close on
Saturday, the 2d inst,
The money market generally is reported

luchtster Trade.
At Manchester, and throughout the man-
ufacturing districts generally, an activity
end impovement corresponding with those
prevailing in the Liverpool markets were
manifest.
The Crimea.
The news from the Crimoa brought by
the Atlantic is of a very interesting and
even exciting character. Gen. Pelissier has
aeareely taken the command of the forces be-
fore it by most important and
energetic movements.
Several great battles have already taken
place in consequence of his dispositions, and
if we may credit the information which has
thus far reached us, the Russians have been
as on all occasions heretofore reported, sig-
nally defeated.
The Allies, it appears, have completely
destroyed the Russian forces in the >Sea of
Asoff, have captured one hundred guns in
the fort of Arabit, which they have taken
and have destroyed one huudred Russian
merchantmen. *
It is also rumored that there has been a
great battle between a portion of the Allied
forces and those of Librandi, who had been
compelled to surrender after having had 8,-
000 of his forces slain.
It is reported that Gen. Canroberthas been
wounded in one of the engagements which
have taken place.
A terrible conflict took place at Sevastopol
on the 23d, when the entire Russian works
were attacked by the Allies. The battle
all night and tl;e Russians were de-
feated with enormous loss. They fell most
bravely, however, chiefly at the point of the
terrible bayonet.
From the very latest intelligence from Se-
vastopol it appears that 20,000 of the Allied
forces, under Gen. Sir G. Brown, landed at
on the 24th nit., and that on the
game day 35,000 more of the Allies advanc-
ed on the Russian position on the Tcherna-
ya, and occupied it.
The Allies succeeded in capturing the
batteries on the coast near Kertsch
and Yenikale. The Russians themselves
burned three of their steamers, and thirty
transporta and trading vessels.
They burned their magazines at
Kertsch, containing 160,000 sacks of oats,
360,000 sacks of corn, and 100,000 sacks of
flour.
The war news by the Atlantic, it will thus
be seen, is highly important.
It is further reported that after two nights
sanguinary conflict, the French had driven
the rt*' " "garrison in Sevastopol from
a very strong position of defence, and Had
themselves occupied it.
The loss on both sides is estimated at 8,-
000 men.
The Allies 'have now fourteen steamers
in the sea of Azoff, and they have posses-
sion of Kertisch, the point from which the
garrison at Sevastopol drew most of their
supplies.
These successes must exercise an impor-
tant and speedy influence on the termination
of hostilities.
There are also rumors of yet another great
battle having taken place at Inkermann, but
the statements want confirmation.
Ptiee Negotiations.
For the most part the accounts of pro-
ceedings at Vienna with respect to the
Peace conference are unimportant.
Diplomacy, however, would appear to be
particularly busy at present, although with
no important movements.
The expected resumption of the confer-
ence had not yet taken place, and is scarce-
ly likely to do so immediately, as the suc-
cesses of the Allies in the Crimea are con-
sidered to warrant them in holding out for
better terms than those previously pro-
^°The Allies in the Crimea have completed
their fourth parallel.
Reinforcements were daily arriving at
¡Constantinople.
The occupation of Galatz and an attack
■pon T"1" ! and Reni were confidently spok-
fT of as about to be immediately enter-

The latest accounts from Sevastopol state
the Russians were retiring from the
plain.
' Preparations were being made for an ex
«edition against the north side of Sevasto-
pol. in order to cut oft' the communication
of die Russians with the city.
Aostria.
Austria negotiations are reported to have
become more active than ever, with the
Tiew of obtaiuiug for the Cabinet of Vienna,
the supremacy in Germany.
Spain-
From Spain we have accounts by the At-
lantic of a Gariist insurrection having bro-
ken out and been checked.
The Government, however, had been com
pelled to apply to the Cortes for additional
powers.
the la-
test accounts received from Madrid, have
granted the extraordinary powers asked for
by the Ministry by a majórity of seventy-
five.

but trade was dull.
Is kw York, June 13.—According to the
weekly returns of the Bank of England, pub-
lished in the London Royal Gazett of Fri-
day, the 1st inst., and brough hither by the
Atlantic, the bullion in the bank had increas-
ed by <£417,000 once the departure of the
last steamer.
Eipedilion Against Persia.
Letters whieh have been received here
report that an expedition 15,000 strong was
being got up by the Allies to proceed to the
Persian Gulf, to commence offensive opera-
tions against the Schah, in consequence of
his having joined Russia in active hostilities
against them.
The Conference.
A new proposition as a basis for peace,
recently proposed by Austria, has been deci-
dedly rejected by the Cabinets of France
and England, it was reported that the Con-
ference was to be immediately suspended.
New Hampshire Senators.
We have intelligence here to-day, an-
nouncing that the Legislature has elected
Messrs. Bell and Hale as Senators. The
vote for the long term was, for Bell 220, for

Monterey Captured.
THE BLACK FORT JN THE POSSESSION OF
THE INSURGENTS. . ^
By private letters received per steamship
Nautilus, which arrived last night too late
for our morning paper, we are placed in
possession of the welcome news that Monte-
rey, the strong hold of Northern Mexico,
and key to the Sierra Madre, has been cap-
tured by the revolutionists. It appears that
the place was attacked on the 27th ult, by
General Santiago Vidauri, in the morning,
and captured after a short engagement, to-
gether with the Black Fort and all that it
contained
Govenor Cardona and about 60 officers
were taken prisoners. All the arms and
ammunition, together with thirty pieces of
cannon fell into the hands of the insurgents.
This is a death-blow to Santa Anna.
Carvajal had crossed the Rio Graude,
near Davis' Ranch, just below Camargo,
and Don Macedonio Capistran had crossed a
short distance above Matamoras, with their
forces, intending to unite with the Monterey
insurgents. Capistran had already had a
fight. The work goes bravely on!

COTTON.—The week opening languid-

5000 bales. On Wednesday the Atlantic,

vance of 9-16d. onJMiddling and immense
sales. These advices, which became known
about noon, causcd an active demand, but
owing to the small stock and consequent
poor assortment the sales were confined to
3600 bales. The demand has contiuued ac-

sales yesterday were confined to 1500 bales
and to day to 3500 bales—making a total
for the week of 14,000 bales. The purchas
crs have been chieflyfor England, the North

IÍ. 1Í. REGULATORS, Xo. S.
1 new principie in Medicine, ncrc-r Ixj'ore
known or possessed, by any purgative,
Cathartic, or anti 'Bilious Pills in
use. The true tcay to Purify
the Blood. Let all who
have ever taken Pills
read and inves-
tigate the Theory on
which Radwaifs Regu-
lators are founded. They are
the most perfect Pills in use, and
the only Pills that possess any new med-
ical properties, or regulating powers, that
have been discovered during
the present century.
The action of Radway's Regulators on the_human
system establishes a new principle in medicine, viz,
that the blood cannot be purified by the direct or
specific action of any drug upon it, as an egg or
piece of isinglass purifies our coffee. We are aware
that many learned doctors, writers on materia med-
ica, and proprietors of popular medicines, gravely
assert this doctrine and recommcnd their remedies
to possess this mysterious property of clearing the
blood. We deny that such is the fact, and we as-
sert that no medicine can purify the blood except
through the medium of the glands, viz, the liver,
pancreas, skin, kidneys, bowels, die., which are
the sewers that nature has established for this pur-
pose. Radway's Regulators exert a controlling in-
fluence over these glands, compensating for any
unwarrantable action or sluggishness on their part,
by which the proper amount of excretions is ex-
pelled from the blood, leaving this fluid in its natu-
ral state.
Rjdiroy's Regulators *
possess another important principle which na other
medicine, in the form of pills, ever vet possessed,
namely: that of tearing the boirels and all other organs
iu tht system, regular and healthy, after they operate.
Radway's Regulators
are the most mild, effectual, perfect purgative, ca-
thartic, aperient, anti bilious regulating pills ever
discovered or given to the people. They are á
great family physic for general use.
(¿nick and pleasaut in their action,
Mild and effectual in their operation,
Never sicken, gripe or iccakcn the system,
Elegantly coated tcith gum,perfectly tasteless.
They regulate, to a natural and healthy action,
and remove all morbid humors from the liver, skin,
bowels, pancreas, kidneys, bladder, g'lands, lungs,
and purify the blood by cleansing the sewers of the
system, and regulating every organ to a natural
aud healthy actiou. Those who desire health
should search for the proper remedies to aid nature
in ridding their bodies of disease aud infirmities.
Great Mistake of Pill Doctors.
The most popular pills are deficient iu ther conn
position and medical properties. Manufacturers
of the best vegetable purgative, or anti bilious pills
of the present century, have overlooked the most
importont properties that pills should possess, viz,
the regulating powers of their pills. No one can
enjoy perfect health unless each and every organ
possess a healthy aud natural action.
Their (¿uick Action.
Radway's Regulators are prepared on the same
theory as Radway's Ready Relief-—to act quick and
to relieve the patient from the distressing ailments
that afflict the system immediately. As soou as the
regulators are swallowed they begin their work of
regulating the system, and exercise over the dis-
eased parts a healthy iutlucuce. Jf troubled with
coughs, colds, influenza, sore throat, colus in the
head, hoarseness, take from two to four of the Reg-
ulators on going to bed, and in the morning all dif-
ficulty will be removed. If troubled with costive-
ness, indigestion, disease of the liver or kidneys, a
few doses of Radways Regulators will remove the
difficulty aud restore the system to order, regi:larity
and health. Radway's regulators are pleasant in
their operation, and elegantly coated with gum,
never sicken or gripe tlie p-itieut: they are jfree
from mercury or caloi:.d, and v HI surely restore
the weak aud sick!;.' to 5:i:. 1;h and strength.
The Bowels.
Radway's Retrnlators do nor act exclusively on
¿he bov.cis by thi1 forceo¡ . irirritaliusrproperiips,
nut by their regulating ciTects upon the liver, pan-
creas. kid-leys aud all oilier organs iu the system, l
indue? a thorough discharge t ' loth bile and pancre-
atic juice into the Iwrels, ''tus usiug nature's purgative
riz, the bile aud pancreatic juice, to operate on the bow-
els, Radways Regulator$ arc the only pills in use that
mote the botcels in a natural manner; all other purga-
tive pills now in use mote the botcels by their irritating
properties on the coats of the intestines, in the same
manner that the bowels are mated by the irritation of
food cafen that disagrees with the stomach ; all these
scouring operations are attended with great pain, and
invariably leave the l/oivels costive, and the system pros-
trated with feebleness and irregularity.
The following ailments Radway's Regulators will
quickly cure, and free the system from all irritating
humors, and leave every organ in the body iu a
natural and healthy condition:
Costircness, Biliousness, Dyspepsia, Kidney Com-
plaints, Bladder Complaints, Indigestion, Constipation
ef the Botcels, Inflammation of the Bowels, Inflamma-
tion of the Kidneys, Headache, Nertous, Headache,
Sick, Measles.
Difficulty of Passing Water.
Bad Breath, Bad taste in the Zl'iuth.
Malignant Disorders.
Small Pox, Bilious Fever, Influenza, Scarlet Fever,
Typhus Fever, Pleurisy.
Fevers of all kinds,—All Female
Complaints.
Irregularity, Hysteria, Whiles, Prolapsus Uteri,
Womb Difficulties, Amenorrhea.
Unhealthy Drains.
Loss of appetite, loss of memory, and loss of
strength. Each and all of the above difficulties
Radway's Regulators will quickly cure.
Important Fever Treatment. Pneumonia.
This distressing aud ofttimes fatal malady, will
readily yield to the influence of Radway's "Regu-
lators aud the R R Relief. We have cured hundreds
of persons in Georgia and Alabama, where Pneu-
monia raged in localities as epidemic, by the R R
Regulators and R R Relief.
In all Fevers.
Radway's Regulators will prove effectual and pro-
tect the system against fatal consequences. If
Radway's Regulators are taken in good doses, from
four to six every six hours on the first symptoms of
fever, the patient- will soon recover." No jiersou
lias ever yet died under the r n r treatiaeut.
The Li rcr.
There is no medicine so effectual in curing all
disorders of the liver ;-s Radway's Regulators. Over
blue pills and ail mercurial 'medicine, they are
greatly superior.
They aet much better and quicker upon the liver
than blue pills, and all oth'-r liver pills, and will
not endanger the system with the injuries inflicted
by mcrcui v.

MALE AND FEMALE.
TITTS Institution opened in the new building,
September 1st, lfco4, and at Christmas, ninety
pupils had been enrolled, and in attendance. The
building will be completed, exercises resumed,
the SPRING SESSION
commence February 1st, 1855.
All pupils should then be entered, and be regular in
attendance thereafter until the end of July, when
the session v.ill close with a thorough examina-
tion.
The prompt ar.d liberal patrensge. already receiv-
ed, is gratefully acknowledged, and stimulates the
friends of the Institution to renewed efforts, still
further to merit it. More ample provisions for
boarding and instruction are now being made for
the approaching session, li is intended that, as ;.u
Institution of learning, it shall exert an influence
favorable in the highest degree to the principles of
religion and the practice of virtue, being, however,
independent of the control and without the support
of any religious denomination, its only reliance is
its merit to commcnd and to sustain it; and it looks
first to the country around, to which its location
makes it most couvenient
THE ACADEMY AND BOARDING HOUSE
are neat, capacious and comfortable—near to each
other, elevated in location, and free from the in-
fluence of immediate proximity to town.
The former is now being handsomely finished,
and its rooms will be furnished with desks, seats,
black boards, globes, maps and scientific apparatus.
The Male and Female departments have different
rooms for study and recitation, different teachers—
and are, by fixed arrangements, entirely separate-
having only in common, the use of the lecture room
and apparatus, and the attention of the Principal,
who will preside over and instruct in both.
The latter designed at present for male pupils
only, will be under the superintendence of tho Prin-
cipal, who will be responsible for pleasant boarding
and proper control. Females may be boarded in
private families convenient and improved; for them
the same responsibility will be felt, and the same
guardian care exercised over them as far as possible.
The government will be administered with decision
aud kindness, and the discipline, necessary to check
evil and cherish good, must be faithfully sustained
by parental influence.
Instruction wiU be given in the branches of En-
glish education, as taught under the best common
school systems, divided into primary and advanced,
in the classics, mathematics, natural sciences, mod-
ern Languages, and ornamental branches of female
education, as taught in higher Institutions, divided
also into primary aud advanced, or preparatory and
Collegiate. Norman School education or instruc-
tion, preparatory to teaching, will be given free of
charge, with practice in teaching the primary classes
to those obligating themselves to teach a term of
years in Texas.
The government of the Institution with the in-
struction, will devolve upon Rev. W. G. Foote, A.
M., Principal, assisted by Mr A. L. Robertson, in
the male department, Miss C. B. LeMoiu, a lady
of high character aud qualifications in the female,
and Mr. C. G. Fitze Professor of music and mod-
ern languages. With these, another able and ex-
perienced teacher is expected soon to be associateH
as Professor of mathematics.

The experience of the past season, with that of
former years, but above all, the number of healthy
children now living in the town, proves conclusively
its general health, and this, with its centrallocatiou,
ease of access, improving character and prospects,
commend it to planters and others, as a place con-
venient and suiuible for the education of their chil-
dren, where they can see them and have them at
home occasionally, or live and edueate them at
home, as some ¡'ave proposed to do.
