The America brings cbout twenty-five thousand pounds sterling in specie. Cotton dull and prices nominally ono-bulf to three-fourths cf a peuny lower. Breadstuff very dull and slightly lower. l'rovisiuus dull. Money essentially unchanged. Cousols advanced to feOJa'.lO. The news by this uriivul, financially and commercially speaking, is highly important und interesting. The money pressure continued without sign of diminution, although a somewhat better feeling had sprung up. Messrs. George t'eabody & Co., one of the most eminent bouses in London, became temporarily embarrassed, but received such prompt aid front lbs Bank, understood to be to the amount of neuily a million sterling, that all iliHiculties were removed. Their ubility to go on, with the assistance extended them, was unquestioned. (several heavy futures had occurred m England since tbo doparluro of tho Fulton, besides a few of minor importance. In the Continental markets affairs were improving. Another unsnccessful attempt bad been made to launch tho "Leviathan," better known as the ''Ureal Eastern." Tbe political uows is of but little impor tance. Tbo Vanity of Riches is seldom illustrated so strikingly as in thu case of the great Eng lish milliuiiarie, Morrison who died worth 20,000,000. It seems to ba one of the con ditions of the accumulation ofenormous wealth in single generation that the possessor shall first disqualify biuiselflrom enjoying it, cud in some cases even from appreciating the fact that bo holds it. Mr. Morr sou accumulated this almost fabulous amouu'. hiintelf and in the regular course of bis business will o it and ex traordinary turu of fortune ; yet the following extract IVoiit.u letter in the lloslun I'cst shows bow little betielit ho permitted himself to re ceive from uli his wealth. What a sutije it is upon tliu exclusive devotion of ull tbe fac ulties to the mere accumulation of property : 'Mr. Morrison retired from active business savcrul years since Without withdrawing his capital from the oierchuutilo house aud Ihutigli mauagiug bis vast funds himself up to the time of his death with ull the sagacity of ear lier doys, he has for the last three years been possessed with thu idea that be should come to want.

Tbe pronun ciados were everywhere hovering about the city, and my informant had obtained their plan of operation?, which had not yet on tbo 10th beeu made public. Tho new plan of the revolutionists provide! for the calliug of ft Congress or council of the principal men of the different States, who shall name a pro visional President. The person uomod may or may not be in the country at the time of tbe sitting of tbe Congress. This provision, it is said, is proof positive that Santa Anna is the per so a designed to succeed Comonfort, in caso the revolution should be successful. i When' in the city of Mexico, I was satisfied thut the revolutionists could concentrate their strength upon no one but Santa Anna, and since coming aboard this stoumtr I have learned, through a source woitby of tbe high est consideration, that Santa Anna is the mail. Xegoliations have been pending be tween him and the revolutionists for some time past, and bis arrival on tbe coast of Mexico at any moment w ould not be a matter of surprise. His coming will be the signal for the downfull of Comonfort, who is said for a month past to have bad his trunk ready for leaving the country. Since your last advice's tbo revolutionists have made no headway in their detached, disconcerted, and predatory style of warfare.

Portilla, on bis relnrn from Vera Cruz, whither he had gone with the specie train, was attacked by a baud of pronunciados, under Trujeqne. lie concealed his battery until a fuvoiable moment, when he opened on the enemy, completely routed them, killing und wounding quite a number. l'bis event was followed at Puebla by an attempted rising on the 11th, which was timely discovered by the governor. The emissaries of tho revolutionists were permit ted to enter the quarters of the soldiers whom they were to corrupt, wheu they were seized and five of them shot on the spot.

LUTltll FRO.ll A WELL IE SOW I'llVSI CIA.M. Havkriui.l, Mass, June 1 lpfifi S. W. Fowlr & Co. Gentleman : While suuering irom nyspepsia some years since and trying ulmost every thing for its removal witaoui any oeni-ui. i was accidentally led to make Use of the "(hiienated Bitters" nnd after a short trial of thorn, found my health improving, nnd in timO iiil tlUease radically removed. Since then I have used them in my practice and generally with good success. 1 know of no medicine so well adapted to the cure of Dyspepsia in many of its aggravated forms. 1 have seen the most stubborn cases. which had resisted almost all the preparations couiouly used for Indigestion yield ns by uuicic upon the administration of a few poses of these Bitters. Such results have increased my confidence in their medical powers, and strengtheuned my convictions of their superi ority over all other instrumentalities in the treatment of tho complains for which they are recconunended. 1 would certainly advise those troubled with Dyspepsia, to use the Bitters und I am confi dent all who do so, will reap great benefit If tbero is nothing to contrn-indicne their use.
