Twenty-five cents for loaf of veryJuV different bread, and. very scarce at that 1 This" is the incident which, more than any; other, oi the. peculiar circumstances by which" our city, is now" surrounded, must.

Tender ibis a memorableera in the history of Kew Orleans While the country, nay, the whole world, abounds with flour, this hitherto great depot of. that is en-, tisely bare of tLis essential of life, or, if there is any here at all, it is entirely monopolized by the United States soldiers, and byjbne or wo bakers, who have for Sale a fevr forbidding-looking loaves, at fabulous prices. A very few citizens have a little remaining' of the large stores laid Hp by' 'them, some time eren this is i i The' great majority of our people are driven to the use of corn meal. Such a change is rather violent at first, but we are rapidly getting accustomed to it. By proper attention and art on the part of housekeepers, meal can be cooked up into many very appetizing and nutritious forms.

Rice, too, is quite abundant; and sold at reasonable rates. It is ground in this city into a very pretty flour, but is more difScnlt to make into bread than meal. There are other forms however in which it may be prepared that will render it quite a good substitute for flour. Housekeepers however say that the rice boiled makes a better cake than the flour. The present destitution of flour we presume will be temporary.

It 5s purely accidental. The failure to ship flour at New York is mainly dud to the expectation that the river would be soon opened, and large supplies would come from ue West, which would be sold at cheaper, rates than that sent from the North. Gen. Goicouria displayed great sa (Tacit in shipping a larce amount of flour by his ship, the Blackstone, from the sale of he realized a profit of $20,000. That was an even more enterprising act of the pary, who brought quite a large amount of flour from the free city of Hamburg.

Such an occurrence has not taken place before as the shipment of flour to this city from a European port. It has notj however, proved a very profitable undertaking, as the flour of Europe soon sours in this climate. "It is to be hoped that Northern citizens hRve ere this discovered the profitableness of such shipments, and the great demand for flour in this city. If they do not, and the opening of the river should be long postponed, our unfortunate population will be in a very baa way. We are pressed on both sides; indeed, on all sides.

Whilst the United States authorities hold us as captives under martial law the Confederates and Gov Moore forbid all intercourse with the country. The people with whom the one authority allows us to have commercial intercourse are willing to trade, but the people under the other authority are not permitted to send us the, only articles which we might exchange for what the former brings and is ready to sell. 'We are thus subjected to the hardships of a sort of double siege. Both "parties virtually treat us as enemies. Martial with all its rigors, presses us in all directions.

To' a people so long accustomed to the most unrestricted commerce and freedom, these are very hard conditions. God grant some-early conclusion of this most anomalous and uncomfortable state of affairs iu our once great and prosperous city Iatc asd Intereatlnc freaa Seath Aaaerlea The New York Herald, of the 13th June, contains the following letter BtTKNOS Atrks. April 14. 18oi This mrnivg an advance mail briogs as tie' gleanings from the European and Aineri can news dae to-morrow. In general it is enconrafcioB to th see countries, and it is especially cheering to Americas a.

The events of February, the 23d, are fast now here. The evacuation of Columbus and of Nashville, and the signs of moresaant on the Potomao give promise of a speedy end. Americans here, as at home, beoome more united in feeling as the majesty of the General Government becomes more apparent and the latent power more developed. The allied movement towards Mexico fills these countries with alarm. Mexico, in her weakaees and divisions, well represents all the Spanish-American countries, and, it is an easy Inference, if for these reasons she may: be overpowered, so may other.

There is an undefined fear here that Spain may come apon all these countries with an old unsettled account for the expenses of the war of their independence. If France and England should join to sustain each claims, Bpajiish America would, as such, be wiped oat. The French nave lately been urging some old claims for indemnlication against Baenos A an award of 3,000,000 of current dollars has been made for ail claims to this date.

The railroad from Santiago to Angelina, on tbe Yuna, i decided npon.

This will give an stlet for the productions of the eplondid valley of the Tnna, known as the Vega Beal, to the Bsy of Samana. Already propositions for navigating the Yuna from its moutn, at Samana Bay, to Angelina, have been pre-rented by an American company and favorably considered. The new tariff, reducing the rate ef datiea from thirty to twenty per cent, ad valorem, it is taid, will take effect In July. All articles necessary for the personal use of the colonists, except provisions, are to be admitted free of duly. I enclose a copy of the new decree regulating the terms for tbe payment of duties.

Our accounts from Ilay ti as to the practical woikirg of the colonisation of American blacks there are favorable, aud Spain is not unwilling to. take a leaf out of Hayti's book. Indeed the authorities here have already taken the initiative ia the matter, and I understand expect shortly large arrivals of "contrabands." There is no fear, that they will be other than well treated. There ia uo country on the face of the earth where the irrepressible darkey blooms as he does here. They hold biyh bffieea, both in the civil and military department, and poesess the same political and reUitiuua.

not social, status oi the This is a peculiar feature of Spanish Doliev. It is well known thai the home gov eminent favors emancipation in the cSloniea, and every year sees a new condition imposed on slavery. Tbo institution in tbe Spanish West-ladies is now so hampered with restrictions, bearing heavily upon the master and operating to the proportionate advantage of the slave, that the planters or Cuba and Porto bko are seriously considering the propriety of proposing to tne noma government the poucy oi emancipation, wiin compensation. Spain evidently intends to build up in these waters a power! ol free black empire. She dutruete the loyalty of her white Creole subjects.

They are a little too much exposed to tbe captivating influences of Seceesia and, seeing what the progress of the age demands, and will not be cheated of, she wisely determines to have ber best bowsr oat to windward. So her policy is towards emancipation, and not only this, bat the treats free blacks with marked respect and partiality. In Havana youwill see a regiment of a thousand free black volunteers parading with the troops of the line or keeping guard in the Obra Pia. This service, it is to be borne in mind, is not Allowed to thewbites of Creole birth, except as special cases of faver. Thus the Macks are educated to the use of arms, while the whites grow up in ignorance of this accomplishment a wrinkle which the nbn-slavehoioing States of the United States may make a note of.

In point of civil privileges the free blacks are in every respect" the equal of whites. In courts of law their testimony is considered quite as good, and they have the same rights as to the holding of lands and other property. The government reserves to itself' the right to dissolve the connectfon of master and slave on proof of cruel treatment, dee. One quarter of the blacks in Cuba are free, and many of them are rich. It may be mortifying to acknowledge that Spain is leading as in wisdom and pi ogress but each is the melancholy fact.

binoe the annexation, real eatate ia and about the city has increased in value several hundred per cent- llouses rent at Fifth Ave-Lue rates. Tbe large property of Qen. Cas teu, which adjoins the city walls, is now a splendid fortune to its lucky owner. Land in the interior bas not perceptibly inereused in value, aa but few agriculiuriata have yet ar-livtd. A( Samana great improvements are beiog made.

Tbe Royal West India Hail Company's efeamehips will probably make this port their terminus, in lieu of St. Thomas. If the coal ia as good and abundant as represented, it will doubtless be the favorite resort for ctcamchips plying in these waters. All such veesels may enter and depart free of duties and port charges. It is probable that Samana will be declared a free port for all nations la July.
