The Minister of Mariue at Copenhagen has given notice
that during the present month two fixed white lights will

of Uenoa. 'lire light has been placed at an elevation of
307 feet abovo the level of the sea, and should be visible

Some error respecting the lights in the Gulf of Cagliari
having crept into all English charts, the British
consul at that port has made known that the fixed light
said to be on Kauale does not exist. A new light-house,
to carry a first-class light, is now building on Caroli
island, off Cape Carlronera ; and the government has decreed
the erection of another, to show a fourth-class light
ou Cape St. Elia, which, however, is not yet begun. 'The
only lights now in the bay are two small red lights, one
ou each side of the entrance of the Dorseua, or inner
harbor.
The Sicilian government has given notice that, on and
1 after the 15th day of July last, a fixed white light, varied
by a red Hash every two minutes, will be substituted for
the former light on the tower of San Kanieri, Messina.
Tbe light will be placed at an elevation of 132 feet above
the level of the sea, and should be visible from the deck
of a ship in ordinary weather at a distance of twelve
in ilea.
The captain of the port at Buenos Ayres lias given notice
that a light ?*Bel has been established off Point Iridic,
carrying a fixed white light, at a height of about 30
feet above the level of the sea, visible from the deck of a
ship at a distance of from 8 to 10 miles in clear weather.

ENGLISH REVIVAL OF THE SLAVE TRADE IN A
NEW FORM.
The influence of Exetor Ilall is rupidly on the
wane in England. The following significant article
appears in a late number of the Liverpool Times :
"When the outbreaks in India have been quelled, as
quelled they must be, the question will arise what shall
we do with the mutineers t The massacres there have
liven so horrible, and accompanied with atrocities on
women and children so revolting to all our notions of
warfare, that a terrible punishment is certain to overtake
I.vge numbers of the offenders. Public opinion will jus
tify a teartul retrimiuou, aim tne example wnicti wiu DC
made will cause liuuian blood to flow like water. Strong
hs this feeling is at home, it must be still stronger and
11 fiercer In India, for there even females, maddened at the
scenes which they have witnessed and of those of which
they have heard, liave lost the characteristic softness and
clemency of their sex, and liecome warriors in feeling, if
not in reality. The inusket and the gibbet will take ample
revenge on the wrong-doers, and the sacrifice of human
life cannot fail under the most favorable circumstances
to lie prodigious. Everything that transpires is
calculated to whet the appetite for vengeance, and order
will not reign again in Bengal until the wretched natives
have felt the strength of Engl ami's power.
" But we cannot shoot, hung, or cut down 100,000
men. We may make an example which will lie remembered
in all future time, but we cannot degrade
ourselves to the level of the savages whose horrible
atrocities on our countrymen and countrywomen have
appalled the nation through its length and breadth. Justice
will be vindicated by the destruction of the leaders?
of those who are proved to have been more forward than
their followers in the butcheries of which India has been
the scene. With a meed of retribution which will amply
satisfy the stoutest sticklers for blood, scores of thousands
of offenders will still remain, and the next best punishment
would lie to deport these men from India forever?
to transport them, as we term it here, for the term of
their natural lives, to a far distant land, where the remembrance
of their crimes would haunt them forever,
and where they would be compelled, by enforced labor,
to make u fitting atonement for the evil they hail committed.
" Wo wnnt labor in the West Indies, and the scarcity
tof labor compels the planters of the West to send to the
East for it?to hire Asiatics as free laborers, and give
guarantees that they shall be sent home, If they desire it,
At the end of a given number of years. Punish the mutineers
by transporting them in thousands (luring their
existence to this part of our possessions. The island of
Inmaica ami the mainland of British (iuiana would abawb
as mainly as the Indian and the British government
could Report within a reasonable time after the suppres"Ion
of the."'' revolt. Wo cannot see wliat objection can
I* urged to thu," t>roiyl?d"Our
philanthro",Vi ' (lrelM'in? 11 revival of the slave
trarle, will not allow an ,>l>ortation of free blacks into the
Wert Indies ; but here are ? -vertheless, criminals guilty

which nan be imagined."
riie Springfield (Massachusetts) Argus of Monday stAtes
that the Lyman mill, at Holyoke, has commenced runmug
again six days in the week, and eight hours in the
u*y. If there is such an improvement in financial matters
as to warrant this movement, it will be likely to affect
other mills in a similar way. The relief will be most
welcome to the thousands of operators that are now out

FINANCES OF MEXICO.
Tlio intelligent Washington correspondent of tho
Journal of Commerce furnishes the following interesting
information in relation to the finances of
Mexico:
By tho last arrival I have a letter from a friend in
the city of Mexico, containing some tacts, drawn from
official sources, in regard to the finances of the republic of
Mexico.
The aggregate amount of revenue from all sources, except
the couffxeatiun and sale of church property, for the
year euding the 31st of July last was $13,340,534. But
of tills sum not more than three-fourths went into the
coffers of the treasury ; about one-fourtli of the net revenue,
after paying the expenses of collections, is paid to
bankers in premiums upon the advance of money for the
necessities of the government. For example : the government
needs the stun of $76,000 to-day, and one of the
government shavers furnishes the coin and takes a receipt,
with an order on the custom-house for $100,000.
In this manner the revenue from customs aud other
sources is always anticipated, ut the loss of at least onefourth
of the amount.
During the last fiscal year the government confiscated
and sold church property to tho amount of $24,000,000,
but in such a manner tlisrt it afforded little relief to the
treasury. Only & per cent, of the uggregate amount sold
is paid to the government. From thin source during th?
. last year the sum received was $1,083,611, of which aggregate
the sum of $675,305 was received in cash, and
the balance in bonds aud certificates of debt due by tire
government.
In a financial statement made by tire late Secretary of
the Treasury, Mr. Lerdo, he says that it requires the sum
of twenty millions of dollars annually to meet the current
expenses of the government, and he states that the annual
deficit is not less than nine millions.
Insurrections, conspiracies, and pronunciumientos, nil
directed rurainst the irovermiient. art; of friMilient occur
rcncc, but aro neither extensive nor formidable), and are
uniformly put down with little bloodshed and a few arrests.
Til ua in the aneute at Guadalajara, about the first
of August, about a down of the insurgent* were killed,
'lire conspiracy which wan detected in 1'uebla about the
same time, and in which several leading men were concerned,
was terminated by the arrest and imprisonment
of fifteen of its chiefs.
The experiment of a federal government, in conformity
with the new constitution, meets witli encouragement
from the uputhy and indifference both of the State governments
and of the popular mass. 'The federal Congress
may not tie able to form a quorum within any given
time, and if they did, it is questionable whether they
would be able to put the theory of thu new constitution
in practical operation.
General and President G'omonfort considers himself, no
doubt, as invited by the almost unanimous voice of the
people, ns expressed at the late election, to take the reins
of the government into his own hands?a hopeless luid
thankless task for him or for any one.
BALTIMORE AS IT IS.
Baltimohb, October 8, 1857.
To the E'i'or of the Union;
I see that the American press in this city is exceedingly
concerned in vindicating the reputation of Baltimore from
the exceedingly just strictures contained the other day in
your paper. If zeal could supply the place of argument,
if passion were logic, or recrimination demonstration,
possibly reason might be on their side. But as tbo case
stands, these (tapers are forced into the dilemma either,
us has been done, of denying the truth of what everybody
knows, and their own records certify to have occurred,
or admitting the occurrence of such scenes of disorder,
of jialliating them by unfairly concealing all their
ugly points, or of justifying them by throwing the blame
upon the democratic minority. It is obvious that this is
merely shifting the argument. When an accusation is
made against the city, when the city is said to be the
theatre of daily and nightly outrages, to accuse an opposite
faction of being the cause of such outrage is surely
not disproving the imputation. The fact remains unaltered
and unimpeached. The city is to blame?the government,
the police of the city. The law-abiding of
either party?and the majority is law-abiding?do not or
should not approve of any net done in violation of the
very first principles of their organization ; and certainly
to administer the city justly and lawfully, to secure every
right of property and every right of pereon, is a most appropriate
and ovident function of a government. Therefore,
when the party In power fails to make adequate provision
for this, it is little in its defence, when its efficiency
is denied, for it to allego that the infractions of law and
order on the part of its adherents are to repel assaults
made upon them. There are sins of omission as well as
ot commission ; it is a little less than absurdity to excuse
a crime (for bail government is a crime) by the suggestion,
proof, or admission of gross negligence and recklessness
on the criminal'sside. It isu heinous fault apologizing
for another equally heinous. Is this reason ? Granting
that the democrats are the originators of every riot: this is
so much against those democrats who begin and cause these
riots, but it is rauch more against the American party.
They have undertaken, and are responsible for, the government
of the municipality. If they have failed, what
a confession of weakness it is to say that their political
opponents were the cause of their failure ! If there are
any disturbers of the pence, let them, democratic or American,
be put down. A good government can put down
any outbreak ; and a petty riot ought to bo extinguished
before even an alarm in a large city like Baltimore, in a
city making such professions as Baltimore, in a city so
sustained by public opinion as Baltimore has beon. The
truth is that its present municipal authorities lean for
support upon organized bands of ruffians. The police
themselves are receiving tho reward of their righteousness
; and if there is an intensity of factional hatred, animosity,
and recklessness such as tho world hns never witnessed,
it is to be found at this day in the city of Baltimore.
Better to have murdercm, robbers, and burglars
wiiom the law is not ashamed to punish than political
ruffians whom its ministers fawn before and favor. Better
stand the chance of being murdered with a possibility
of detection and revenge than run tho risk of being accidentally
a victim to plug-uglyism. No evidence is ever
strong and connected enough to convict one of these
men ; and the mockery of a solemn judicial farce every
u.iw auu uicii ^uiict iiiiuii^u wiui nunuwu/in uriiuu wivu
the certain blindness of justice. Well are its eyes here
blindfolded ; but strike from her hands the meaningless
symbols of sword nnd balance, and send her begging
away? the naked and discarded prostitute of political
rancor.
1 now come to the main point of my communication?
and that is to ndd my individual confirmation to the mass
of experience on the subject. 1 was walking last evening
in a seemingly quiet and unfrequented part of the city,
when I observed standing at a corner three men. As it
was late and I had heard so much of Baltimore ruffianism,
I grasped my cane tightly and prepared myself for
the encounter which, as I had feared, immediately ensued.
I walked quietly and unconcernedly by them,
when one of their number asked mo where I was going.
I made no answer, and walked on. With a curse, he
repeated the question ; and, seising me by the arm, shook
me violently. Fortunately, he was between me and his
assistants, who were scarcely a yard off; and, shifting
tho stick which I had in my right hand to my left, I
strnck him with all my force over the head. Tho blow
had its effect in stunning him a little, and I had no diffi.
culty now in getting free from his grasp. I then ran up
the street crying police, but met not a single i>erson in a
distance of five squares. I was at first pursued, but the
chase was soon given up. Now, I am a southern merchant,
and was well disposed to Baltimore ; but henceforth
I shall strive and use all my efforts to make others
shun this hot-bed of vlllany, outrage, and ruffianism.
But for my previous preparedness I should in all probability
have l>een robbed and left senseless in the street.
Even curiosity seems to have been extinguished by the
dark demon of violence and crime brooding over this
Cl> ; for no ono even looked from a window to sec what
was the matter. If the friends of Baltimore -and I was
one?aro thu? to bo treated, the sooner it meets the fate
of Sodom and Gomorrah the better.

CON NECTICUT TOWN ELECTIONS.
Htunhigton elected the dvuiocriitic ticket by 126 majority
; Bristol by about 130 majority. The know-nothings
have ruled Bristol for three yean, and have now
been completely whipped. Old OloMtenbury, we are glad
to learn, has repudiated abolitionism and given a majority
of 67 for the democrats, on a well-contested rote of
nearly Ave hundred. In Middletown Mr. Starr, democrat,
was elected clerk by 526 votes to 285 for Colef,
republican.
The Middletown Sentinel gives results from several
towns, adding that "they present thus far au unbroken
series of democratic triumphs, and yet achieved without
any extra efforts on tire part of our friends. These results
indicate, in the most unmistakable manner, how
strongly the popular current is running towards democracy,
and how hist the fortunes of the pie-bald opposition
are ebbing. The 'sober second thought of the people'
lias everywhere, even on the borders of the far Pacific,
approved the verdict given in November last. One more
effort, friends! and Connecticut will inevitably be rescued
from black-republican misrule.'*
j In Bridgeport the democrats eleeted P. C. Calhoun
mayor and the rest of their ticket over bogus Americans
and sham republicans combined.

The creditors of Mourn. 1'aiiu k Noun*' luul a meeting
yesterday afteruuou at Uiriou Academy, corner of New
York avenue and Fourteenth street.
About seventy persons having assembled, Nicholas
C'allan, esq., was elected president, and Henry Bmith,
ct?|., secretary.
Mr. Callan, on taking the chair, stated tliat he was
not a creditor himself?that he was only the representstivo
of parties who held certificates of dejioeite. He also
stated that he did not know who called the meeting, or
; what it was called for, and he left it to the gentlemen j
present to state the object of the meeting and proceed to |
business.
Several gentlemen arose In turn and made remarks and
suggestions; among them we recoguised Colonel W heeler, j
Mr. J. A. M. Duncanson, Colonel Bate man, Rev. J. L.
Elliott, and Mr. Wo. Anderson.
The general impression seemed to l>e that a committee
ought to be appointed to thoroughly investigate and report
the affairs of the suspending firm, and tliat a representative
of the creditors ought to lie associated with the
assignee of the firm.
Several gentlemen expressed entire confidence In the
Integrity of the firm and their ultimate ability to pay.
Mr. Duncansoii, in {^articular, bore testimony to the integrity
of the institution. Col. Wheeler said he once went
to school with Mr. Nourse down in old North Carolina,
had known him ever since, and did not believe there was
a inure honest man on top of the earth. Mr. Edes, the
assignee, was also well spoken of.
On motion of Col. Wheeler, the following resolution
was unanimously adopted :
Resolved, Tliat it is due alike to the depositors as well
as to Messrs. Pairo & Nourse that a full investigation
into the aflhirtf of the concern lie made, and, as invited by
their letter of the 5 th inst., that a committee of throe lie
appointed, who shall lie authorized to examine into said
uffuirs, and report the result of their labors to an adjourned
meeting of the deiio.dtors to be held at this place on
Monday, the l'Jth inst., at 4 o'clock, p. in.
The chair appointed Colonel John H. Wheeler, Win.
H. Thomas, and John H. Smith to constitute the committee.
And then the inoetiug adjourned In good spirits to
meet again at the time designated.

Friended Arrangement! for Procuring European A mm.
Niiw York, Oct. 9.?lu consequence of the temporary
failure of the Atlantic telegraph cable, the New York
Associated Press have decided to employ a HuUitantial
news yacht at Newfoundland for the pur|M?e of boarding,
off Cape Kace, all the steamer* from Liverpool, Houthampton,
Havre, Bremen, Glasgow, Ac., Ac.; and in thin
enterprise ? no important to the whole public of the
United State* and British American province*?they
hope to receive the hearty co-operation of all the
owner* and commander* of the several steamship lines
now established. If the pre** should be seconded in this
arrangement by the commander* of the steamers, there
is no reason to doubt but that they will be able to obtain
the new* from a large majority of the steamer* |Missing
within ten or fifteen miles of Cape Kace, and by availing
themselves of the New York and Newfoundland telegraph
line, which 1* kept in admirable order, they will be
able to spread the European news bofore the public in
about six or eight days from the time it let ves the English
shores.
This arrangement will involve very heavy expenditures,
but the Associated Press cheerfully assume the burden,
not doubting but that the public will properly appreciate
their efforts and sacrifices to promote the interests of the
commercial public and the pleasure of the general reader.
