A decisive alteration has taken place in the beha viour of the belligerent powers in the southern por tion of North America. All the inuendos which were recently promulgated respecting the likelihood of a shameful compromise on the part of the Santa Anna Administration, have, as we were throughout fully convinced, and as we definitely intimated in our last observations upon the Mexican warfare, proved altogether fallacious. Those who were incapable of recognising anything like magnanimity in the dis position of the new President, have been latterly most officious in misrepresenting all the intentions of that illustrious General. Some, indeed, so far indulged their scepticism, as to insinuate that his military future would be little better than sheer poltroonery ; that his official proceedings would inevitably be those of a time-serving hypocrite and a profligate statesman ; and that altogether he would fulfil their most malign anticipations by evincing himself an ambitious and unprincipled ad venturer. We would by no means arrogate to our selves any especial gift of divination, or any super natural powers of prophecy ; we are not particularly desirous of being regarded either as the panegyrist or the apologist of the Mexican President, but we are most solicitous that no precipitate deductions should be drawn from the preliminary actions of a popular champion at the very moment when he ad vances to rescue his countrymen from foreign domi nation, and especially at the very moment when himself, his councils, and his native land, are encompassed by an accumulation of diffi . culties. There is a candour and a simplicity about the recent proclmations of SANTA ANNA which are most propitious ; and we acknowledge ourselves ' to be the more disposed to regard his present conduct with confidence, for two very particular considera tions—Firstly, because in SANTA ANNA, and in SANTA ANNA alone, can the nationality of the Mexicans be concentrated, and their physical energies so organised as to afford any hope of their unconscientious in vaders being repelled beyond the frontier; and, secondly, because we have so full a reliance upon the political character of his race that we are assured he would be hurled from authority, supposing he attempted to perpetuate the dictatorship in his own grasp after the present calamities of Mexico had been nullified. The Mexicans are infinitely too fickle to permit any individual to continue in the possession of the supreme command longer than circumstances would render such a continuance agreeable to them selves—no matter how magnificent might have been the public services of that individual, or how systema tically he might have fabricated his Government. It is the evil characteristics of the population of Mexico, their partiality for indolence, the volatility of their friendship, and their proverbial ingratitude which form their surest preservative against an y pro. tracted despotism. It i s the very possession of those disgraceful propensities which would impel the citizens of the Mexican Republic to thrust any individual from office immediately he h a d rescued them from any dangerous predicament and - -we indications of unduly protracting his domination. In the event of his then proving an enemy to the freedom and regeneration of his countrymen, SANTA ANNA will assuredly be rendered II c ompulsory WASH/NGTON, or an unwilling CIN CINNATITS, by being compelled to retire to his estate atMango de Clava ; or, presuming that his defection to the national cause were of a remarkably flagrant cha racter, he would unquestionably be driven forth igno • miniously to a second sojourn of a much longer con tinuance at Havanna. We are, consequently, satis fied that there is no extraordinary peril to the integrity of the Mexican Republic in the recent ele vation of SANTA ANNA to the Presidency. On the contrary, it is that very elevation, which some are now regarding with such unmerited jealousy, which has preserved the Republic from the perilous guardian ship of PAREDES, and promises to afford her citizens both the opportunity and the capability of re-asserting their independence. From the intelligence which has just arrived by the Royal Mail steamer the Cambria, and which in telligence wass detailed in our columns yesterday, we might augur a most critical juncture for the invading and repellent forces. The refusal of the mediation tendered by the British Government, and the petulant garbling of an unfortunate verb in the future tense, accidentally uttered by Lord PALMERSTON, are suf ficient indications of the intense relish of the United States for this aggressive war. Their behaviour to wards England in this particular is tantamount to an expression of anxiety to " fight it out " quietly by themselves. As to the proposition of a negotia tion with the plenipotentiaries of Mexico, it is a species of impossible and inadmissible courtesy. The conclusion of a peace with the United States at this moment, when California is in the possession of the Americans, and the frontiers are, to a consider able extent, violated, would be the virtual resignation of Mexico to the rapacious and dictatorial policy of Mr. President POLK. One gigantic slice of the Mexican territories would be submissively ceded to the assailants ; other fragments would inevitably follow. The monster system of lawless annexation would devour an independent principality piecemeal, and nourish the cupidity of the American citizens. SANTA ANNA has recognised the certainty of these baneful consequences. The offer of a negotiation has therefore been answered by a promise to submit it to the consideration of the National Congress. Con sidering that Congress will not assemble until the approaching December, this response is a decided evasion of the proposal, and the result of that evasion will be the prosecution of hostilities. In addition, moreover, to all these significant evidences of the disposition of the new administration, President SANTA. ANNA has himself addressed the nation in language of a most warlike and encouraging character. " Mexi cans," says he— " My functions will cease when I have re-established the nation in its rights ; when I see its destinies con • trotted by its legitimate representatives, and when I may be able, by the blessings of heaven, to lay at the fet t of the national representation laurels plucked on the banks of the Sabine." That is neither language of pusillaminity or braggadocio ; it is the voice of a patriotic leader calling upon his people to arise and repulse their antagonists ! Much of public comment has been already offered upon the recent hostile correspondence between Mr. JOHN O'CONNELL, M.P., and Mr. JOHN SHEA LAWLOR, and which ended in the former having the latter brought before a magistrate, who bound him over to preserve the peace. This affair has not been treated of with the gravity it deserves. A humorous vein of ridicule is oftentimes the pleasantest and best way of handling a subject, but then the matter should be suitable for such a method of treatment. In the present instance a most important public principle was involved, and we deem Mr. J. O'CONNELL en titled to eulogy for the prompt, peaceable, and dig nified way in which he protected it. Mr. LAWLOR, one of the seceders from the Repeal Association, tenders his formal resignation in a letter fraught with terms of the strongest reprobation towards those who have zealously advocated moral force as the sole lever upon which they would rely for the fulfilment of their political wishes. This letter was designated as having been " couched in terms of most unbecom ing discourtesy" —language, to our view, exceedingly mild, when weighed in the balance with that which evoked it. For this gentle rebuke Mr. Law Lou plainly enough sought to make Mr. O ' CONNELL per sonally responsible. The mischievous intent was at once thwarted by an appeal to the protection of the law. Of Mr. J. O'CONNELL'S personal prowess we know nothing, but we certainly are not inclined to underrate it because he has evinced a becoming moral courage, and, fearless of pitiful taunts, has secured to himself and others, under the sacred sanction of the law, a due freedom of speech in the discharge of what he considers to be momentous national duties, and in which he is taking a conspicuous part. Suppose that Mr. O'CoNNELL had played the game of his political opponents, and, merging his public in his individual feelings, had met Mr. LAWLOR in the field, what would have been the immediate retort ? Why, that the leaders at Conciliation Hall were not sincere in their advo cacy of moral force, inasmuch as where their per sonal prejudices, as opposed to their national ones, were concerned, they readily enough addressed them selves to physical force for their vindication. Had Mr. O'CONNELL acted otherwise, he would infallibly have fallen into the very pit his enemies had dug for him, and the consequences to Ireland at this particular juncture, from the vice of so flagrant an example, might have been disastrously great. It requires the utmost vigilance, and the most fervent and incessant appeals from all quarters, public and private, and especially from Conciliation Hall, to which, from the untoward condition of Ireland, the people of that country have felt inclined, in a remarkable manner, to yield the 'greatest measure of their confidence— it requires absolute devotion on the part of the lovers of peace, to restrain that excitable and suffering population from bursting the bonds of social order. Would it not then have been seriously to jeopardize the almost miraculous success which has hitherto attended the exertions of public men, if one, who had taken an energetic part in enforcing the pro• priety of preserving the public tranquillity in every way, had proved himself such a hypocrite as to defy the law for the gratification of another's private animosity, after having solemnly adjured his country men to respect the law, how great soever might be their public wrongs or privations ? We feel, there fore, that Mr. O'CONNELL has adopted a praiseworthy course, and acted with far-seeing judgment. He has opportunely in his own person combined example with precept, and defeated the ungenerous and in sidious designs of his opponents. He has acted also in unison with the enlightened spirit of the age. Happily the crime of duelling is rapidly declining. The most gallant heroes of the present day, naval and mili'ary, as well as the most accomplished civilians have alike joined in dem uncing such a barbarous custom, so degrading a relic of bygone times. To those men who practically repudiate the abhorrent practice society at large has reason to feel grateful. In no country so much as in Ireland has the perni cious habit of duelling prevailed ; in none, therefore, will a wholesome example prove of greater service. Above all, the public are interested in every pro tection against hostile proceedings being afforded to those who are only threatened with them because they honestly and freely express their opi nions upon a public document addressA to a body of considerable political influence. The efficiency of all our public institutions—the Parliament, the Bar, the Church, the Press--depends upon the privilege of freedom of speech. Their very vitality is identical with its enjoyment, Least of any one, is Mr. Suns LAWLOR justified in placing this requisite freedom under unreasonable restraint, seeing that his own letter bears ample testimony to its value, and we are not aware that he has taken out a patent for the exclusive use of strong and objurgatory language. We think Mr. SHEA LAWLOR has been righteously dealt with. Letters from Trieste announce that the harvest on the banks of the Danube aad on the shores of the Black Sea has been excellent. "We have not," says the writer of one of these letters, "to join the rest of the world in deploring the scarcity of corn ; for a letter of the 19th ult. from Galatz, states that 700 vessels have left the Bosphorus with a favourable wind from the south, bound for the ports of the Black Sea and the Danube. The quantity of corn in store is so great that a sufficient number of transports can not be found, although they have everywhere been sought for." _„ Thi Provisional Go _____ Government of Geneva has entered on the execution of its duties, and everything con tinues tranquil in the canton. On the 11th the Pro. visional Government declared that the Grand Council THE SUN, L I\l P A OND., RILA ie MORNING, OCTOBER 16, I t--7 6 of the canton of Geneva was dissolved, and con , Tked a new Grand Council for the 25th of this month. In the meantime the different members of the Pro visional Government have themselves undertaken the administration of the various official departments. The Executive Council of Vaud has sent President DEWEY, and that of Berne has sent Governor OCH SENIIIEN to Geneva, with offers of assistance to the new Government. The Vorort (Zurich), on hear ing of the disturbances, dispatched two Commissioners to Geneva. Madrid papers of the Bth have arrived. The ac count of the arrest of a man charged with meditating the assassination of the Due DE MONTPENSIER 15 confirmed. The Espanol gives the following ac count of the affair:— " Yesterday, just before the arrival of the French Princes at the palace, a retired officer was arrested in the precincts, who had upon him two pistols loaded with slugs. On being interrogated by the Minister of the Interior, he replied among other things, that his intention was to kill the Luke de Montpensier with one of his pistols, and to commit suicide with the other." The persecution of the Opposition papers still con tinues, and the Government, in defiance of the de cision of the courts of law—that articles not pub lished could not be considered as libels—have inflicted a fine of 40,000 reals (4007.) on the proprietors of the Espectador. We may judge of the value of the official accounts of the reception of the French Princes from the fact that all the Opposition papers published on the morning after their entry into Madrid were seized, lest their accounts of the affair should be found not to bear out that given in the Heraldo. The Gaceta gives a long account of the reception of the officers of the garrison and the authorities of Madrid by the Due DE MONTPENSIER. NAUVAEZ was '2 t present on the occasion, and the writer in the Gaceta is at particular pains to explain to his readers that he was absent, only because his high rank as Captain-General of the army did not permit him to place himself under the command of the Captain-Ge neral of Madrid. Mr.BULIVER has left Madrid for Valencia, in com pliance, says the Eco del C'omercio, with instruc tions from his Government. In his way he spent a day at Carabancha with Senor SALAMANCA. On the 3d of October the British corvette Spartan, 22 guns, and the steamer Phcenix, eight guns, were at Valencia. The Fornento, of Barcelona, announces the arriva: of the Spartan at that port on the 6th: MADRID BOLSA, OCT. B.—Three per Cents. for cash, 3.52 ; Fives, 22 ; Exchange on London, 361. We have received the Paris papers of Tuesday. The National indulges in the following pungent commentary on the accounts wEich have appeared in the Ministerial journals of the reception of the French Princes : " An incontestible fact, which is asserted by all the independent journals of Madrid, and confirmed by pri vate letters, is that the reception of the Princes in the capital was mute and glacial. The people of Madrid did rot even return to the Duke de Montpensier the graci ous salutations a hich he lavished on them. The suite of the Princes were, it appears, exceedingly alarmed at the reception that awaited them, as the Dangeau of the Debuts is delighted that no cry of evil presage arose to spoil the effect of this fine reception.' He does not dis guise the sinister predictions and alarms felt by the Queen for the safety of her guests.' Why this alarm, if the enthusiasm was general? Why these apprehen sions, if an exceedingly small minority beholds with displeasure the Duke de Montpensier's marriage!'De plorable excitations,' which led to menacing clamours, are spoken of. Vivats may be paid for, and the police of Madrid endeavoured, though unsuccessfully, to pro cure them, but there is no person rich enough to purchase silence ; and silence on such an occasion, in the midst of a people so easy to be worked on, so enthusiastic, and so expansive in their demonstrations, as the Spanish, is an enegetic protest. If the procession which took place on the morning of the 11th was saluted in the same way, it is easy to comprehend that the telegraph would not be too anxious to announce it. It is true that, to fill up the void, there will always be the resource of the his toriographer of the _Mats. The young man who draws up this recital is of a charming naiveté. As he expected enthusiasm, and it never came, he sought out something which could supply its place, and this was what he found: An ardent and rapid content burst forth from every look.' This defies all dispute I A rapid content burst ing forth from every look Deny that if you dare: deny the rapid content of a look ! The whole is magnificent in invention and style I So much for the acclamations of the people of Madrid! but nothing hasbeen said of the transports of Burgos. Still something must have been known about it; it wasnotorious that the ayuntamiente had refused funds for theft*, and the Captain-General con sidering such conduct impertinent, arrested the whole municipality, and simply thrust them into prison. He then could use the municipal funds as be liked. This is, it will be seen, a summary manner of governing ; and it is quite clear that if by chance any individual, func tionary or not, happened to be there, without any great inclination towards enthusiasm, this Captain-General would have soon settled the matter for him. But this kind of liberty is precisely what the marriage is about to consolidate in Spain. How is it possible for the people not to be delighted? Is another proof wanted of what is passing? The Progressist journals of Madrid wished to render an account of the entry of the French Princes, and of the reception given them; the political chief forbad it. A Conservative journal the Espanol, had drawn up an account in a most moderate manner ; but it told the truth, and the political chief ordered it to speak of something else. The same day the Eco del Comercio was seized, for the eleventh time in the course of a fortnight. All these facts are public and undeniable. What is most melan choly is, that the French name is again becoming in Spain an object of hate—that even at the embassy itself the counsel is given to our countrymen not to stay out late at night in the streets, and to walk several together. Such are the bonds created between the two nations. Misfortunes have already occurred to several French subjects in the streets of Madrid. An Andalu sian journal announced a few days back that our country men had but little security in that province, and that it deplored it exceedin g ly. S pa i n, therefore, scarcely hospitable for princes whom a whole army protected, becomes absolutely inhospitable for the merchants and travellers of our country. Thus it is that the marriage draws closer together the two nations, and 'guarantees the secular interests uniting us to the Peninsula, and this is the reason, without doubt, that the Siecle offers its aid to the system which it has the appearance of combatting here, in order to supp or t it more efficiently in Spai n ! We have shown the situation created by this dyna.etic hymen with respect to Spain. We shall, some other day, describe in what position it places us relative to the other powers of Europe." The Constitutionnel and thg .Epoque continue their controversy OR the subject of the conduct of the Minister of Commerce, in admitting Russian goods and ships to the ports of France, in accordance with the terms of the recently-concluded commercial treaty with Russia, before the ratification of the treaty by the Chambers. • The Danis, in the course of a long article on the subject of the revolution of Geneva, says— " We sincerely regret this fall of a Government, which under the most difficult circumstances has uni formly pursued the most worthy and honourable con duct. Being a Protestant Government, and therefore little to be suspected of sympathy for the Jesuits, it sustained, in defending Lucerne and the Catholic can tons, the cause of princirl confessional liberty, and the cantonal sovereignty. Placed at the extremity of Switzerland, this small canton, the weakest and the youngest of the confederation, has by the force of reason and intelligence alone raised itself to the first rank, and become the greatest obstacle to those tendencies towards absorptions which the greatcantons no longer dissimulate. The policy of moderation, which brought Geneva to this elevation, has been overcome in the streets, and we shall see what will be the result. It cannot ~ v e conceive, be expected that the Catholic cantons, in face of a re duplication of danger, will break the alliance it had formed for its protection. The union will rather become closer and snore indissoluble. In two months, Berne, whence the frea corps came forth to triumph, will be come the directory canton, and in the Diet the revolu tionary party will no doubt be reinforced by the repre sentative of the now Government of Geneva. Such is the situation in which Switzerland finds herself, and we cannot conceal that it is by no means calculated to inspire confidence." We are glad to see in the Debate the following, which we consider as an official contradiction of the report that M. GUIZOT had demanded of the English Government the extradition of the Count DE MONTE WOLIN :—" A London journal has pretended that the French Government had demanded from the Eng lish Government the extradition of the Count DE MONTEMOLIN. We are authorised to give to this assertion the most formal contradiction." The Courier de Nantes publishes the following letter from Otaheite. It is dated May 28th : " On my arrival at Otaheite everything was going on well, and I thought I should succeed here as well as the Marquises, from which I had come, but suddenly the horizon became overcast, and war commenced at Hue hine. From this moment business was at an end. An expedition of 500 men set out to bring the natives to subjection, but it was not successful. Two days after wards the steamer returned. As lam well acquainted with the captain, I went on board to learn the details of the victory which we supposed we had gained. I saw about forty men lying on the deck. 'Pradier,' said the captain to me, we have been beaten. There are the w 'ounded. We have had twenty-six dead and thirty hors de combat.' This was the first affair. The Canacs of Otaheite, as soon as the news had reached them, assernt led in their camp. On our side we organised a column to proceed against them. The Queen, who is in another island, sent word to her subjects by her brother-in-law that she was about to return. net. corces being short, we WPrn t 1 f,yr reinforcements. At len_;tb A;ildr.,l I lanteiin arrived. W e .7emained forty-two li I,'.eEnz'ro p,,;At length, one fine morning, when everybody' was at dinner, the Cannes entered the town, began to burn the houses, and fired upon all whom they wet with. Our troops got posses ion of the heights, and for three hours kept up a constant fire. We at length drove off the enemy, but we had five men killed. From this moment everybody was under arms, and every night we were obliged to keep up a discharge of musketry to prevent the natives from burning us out. We embarked on board the vessels everything belonging to us the most valuable. Thirty-five days passed thus, during which We lost only seven or eight men. In the meantime a slight affair t.iok place at Tapouna, in which we had ten men killed, and the same number of woundel. At length arrived two corvettes with troops commanded by the governor. The column being soon organised, set out, and up to the period of my quitting Otaheite, did not cease beating the Callus, and burning all their houses. But the natives always escaped, and therefore lost few men. We had seven killed and fifteen wounded. The governor is to make the tour of the island. If our troops can coop up the natives and kill a great many of them, they will not fail to solicit for peace. Otaheite is a fine country. The natives are very mild, but they are too much attached to their Queen, and our friends the English do all they can to excite civil war between them and us." The latest accounts from Algiers are of the 6th of October. The Moniteur Algeridn of that date has the follow ing intelligence from the Morocco frontier : " We learn, through Tlemcen a new instance of the anarchy that reigns in the west of our f rontier near Morocco. At the beginning of the last month the Halals pillaged a numerous caravan returning from Ouchda to the interior of the empire. It was in va i n t h at it de manded succour from the Caid of Ouchda. The booty taken by the lialafs and their allies is estimated at 50,000 dollars. This is probable from the high price at which the goods have been sold. We are assured that some of the cavalry of Abd-el-Kader were among the robbers. The Caid of Medroinah has just given an additional proof of his fidelity in arresting two em i ssaries sent by Bou Maza to excite insurrection in the town."

At ten o'clock on Wednesday morning the Barrister resumed the revision of the householders' lists The lists of the following parishes were revised :--Allhallows Lombard-street, Allhallows, Staining, St. Dioni's Back church, St. Edmund the King and Martyr—in the Lang bourn and Lime -street Ward. The following is the result of the day's revision:— OBJECTIONS. Allowed. Failed or withdrawn, Liberals Conservatives . .......... 49 Double l7 CLAIMS. Liberals Allowed. 4 The foregoing does not include the result of the revi sion in the parish of St. Edmund the King and Martyr; several cases stand over in that parish, and the return therefore was not made out. The Court adjourned to yesterday morning at ten o'clock, when the Barrister proceeded with the revision of ans following parishes :---St. Peter, Cornhill ; St. Michael, Cornhill the parishes in the ward of Port soken ; and the parish of St. Olave, Hart -street, Tower Ward. Disallowed 3 LAMBETH. On Wednesday the revisionof the lists for this Ix rough was gone into before J. Deedes, Esq., the Barrister, at the Sessions House, Newington. In St. Giles, Camberwell, there were but a few claims or technical objections. In St. Mary, Lambeth, there were 35 claims and no objections. Mr. Sinclair, of Kennington-lane, claimed to have his name inserted on the register, it having been omitted for non-payment of the poor-rates, Mr. Sinclair, in support of the claim, said that on the 20th of July he had called three times at the house of Mr. Spencer, who he always considered was the collec tor, but he had had some dispute with the parochial au thorities, and he heard he was then suspended, but he had the collecting books. lie could not see Mr. Spencer, and the servant could not give him a receipt, although he had the money in his hand. The BARRISTER asked if he tendered the exact amount ? Mr. Sinclair replied that he did not ; he had 31. or 41. in his hand. A subsequent application had been made to him for it, but then he was 160 miles from town, and it was not paid now. The BARR ISTER sa id it appeared a hard case, for there was a difficulty as to who was the collector at the time. The present collector stated that he could not have given a receipt on the 20th of July. The BARRISTER observed that it would have been better to have tendered the exact amount, and the rate must now be paid. lie should allow the claim. The Learned Gentleman, however, upon referring to the Act, considered that the tender of the money was only good in cases of claims to be rated. The difficulty was that the rate was not now paid, and it had not been tendered to any other officer. Mr. Sinclair submitted that the tender having been made on the 20th of July, it was of no consequence when it was in fact paid. The BARRISTER said the section made no reference to a tender. It expressly stated that no person shall be entitled to be on the register "unless he shall have paid, on or before the 20th of July, all assessed and other taxes up to the Gth of April." The 30th section had the word " tender," but that was in reference to a claim to be rated. Whero parties left the payment of the rates to the last moment a diffitmlty was liable to occur, as, for instance, if the collector should die on that day. Collectors were appointed for the convenience of the parish. Mr. Sinclair said—lf this were done, half Lambeth would bo disfranchised, for no one would know what they had to pay. The Learned BARRISTER observed that the rate book could be seen. The claim was disallowed. There was no Of the whole claims 61 were allowed, and 4 disallowed. w ln er S e t. al N lo l w ar e y d , Newington, there w ere 34 claims, which this parish concluded the n ioa of any interest, and ROCHESTER. At ten o'clock on Tuesday morning, th e 13th instant, John David Chambers, Esq., held a court at the Guild hall of this city, to revise the list of voters in the election of knights of the shire for the county of Kent. This district includes the Laythe of Aylesford, c,mtaining 20 parishes, and it is very remarkable that there was not a case for the Court. Mr. Chambers, therefore, adjourned his sitting until three o'clock in the afternoon, when he announced tb at he should take the lists for the city and borough to revise; and at that hour the Court as sembled. Mr. Jones, solicitor, of Greenwich, appeared on behalf of the Liberals, and Mr. Matthew s , of Gravesend, for the Conservatives. The freemen's lists, which contained 29 objections and 6 claims, were agreed between the parties to be taken first, and, owing to the number of cases of household qualification to be decided, there being 121 persons on the list objected to, besides 11 claims,: the court is expected to last three days. It opened at Wednesday morning at ten o'clock, to finish the freemen's lists. _HE Now EAST SURREY REFORM REGISTRATION SoclETL—Abstract of the number of claims and objec- Vons made by the Society at the late revision for East Sucray.

BUTcuERS' C HARITABLE INSTITUTION CRIOXET CLUB.—C LOSE op THE SEASON. —The first anniver dinner of thi s excellent andpraiseworthy society, wa s held o n Wednesday , at the club's head-quarters, mine host Bart s, of the wan, Walha m - gree n. To say that th e ary connoisseurs of the good thing s of the table had " lenten fare" would b e a lib el on their u j d ent in the selection of a cat erer ; on the contrary , a better dinner, better served, than the forty friends of humanity, charity, fellow-feeling, and healthful sport, sat down to discuss, it has seldom fallen to our lot to have seen spread on the social board. When an association combines those warm sympathies and good intentions which make " all mankind of one common kin," it leaves but little for the chronicler to record, save an expression of regret that such sunny spots in memory's waste are not more fre quent. After the usual loyal toasts, that of " Prosperity to the Club which there assembled," called up Mr. If. Collins, the secretary, who, in a speech to the point, an nounced that fifty pounds had been added to the funds of the Butchers' Charitable Institution by the exertions of the club. He trusted that as they progressed a wider field would open for their useful and benevolent efforts, , and that by th e i nfusion of fresh blood into their ranks, in the comi ng spring 18 47 might put its peed ce:sor 1846 to the bl us h ; not in earnestness of purp a , hut in increased eirectiveness an d power of do i ng good Mr. Sharp, the pr es id ent of the committee of the inst t aim), . and other gentlemen, also addressed the assembly ; and after a pleasant evening, diversified by excellent harmony, and an interchange of encouragement to perseverare , in the laudable and benevolent undertaking in which a I present seemed most heartily embarked, the comp y separated with the hope to meet again as early as 0. next season will and Cricket." permit, to sets„tl e cause of " Charity a. ~, fy", 77, c The of C'ott,m at Liv. rp0, , 1 r,;•, ) ~rt. fom 14,000 to 15,000 baies, of which 8,000 were on specula tion. The market was very animated, and prices in most instances were per lb. higher. Holders deem the accounts be the Cambria in their favour; the crop of Sea Islands' being estimated at 15,000 bales. The quo tations are as follows:-200 Pernams and Maranhams. at sid. to 71r1.; 400 Bahi,i, at 64d. to 7d.; 300 Egyp tian' at 61d. to 7d.; 500 S urat , at 3 d . to 40.; and th e rest American, at sd. to 6111. The papers and letters received by the Cambria steamer are of considerable interest as respects the quantity of supplies coming forward of flour, &c. The exports are represented as being very heavy indeed. The weather, too, continued satisfactory for getting in produce. The weather is thus referred to in the last number of the Quebec Gazette which has come to hand:— " THE WEATHER.—The north east wind which com menced on the night of the 18th inst., continued only till the following night. Yesterday the wind was west, the air again smoky, and the thermometer up to 75 deg. in the shade ; towards evening the wind went round by the south, and it began to rain about ten o'clock, and continued till towards daylight with a light easterly wind which still continues. Some farmers in the new settle ments have got in their potato crops in good order, in some cases a thousand bushels. Ploughing is commenced on moist grounds." In the English Stock Market the settlement of the Account has formed the principal business of this day. As yet all has gone off well. The failure, talked of so much, which occurred yesterday, was a mere bagatelle. The party was a member of the Exchange just started—rather an ill omen as respects the future prosperity of the concern. Consols for the Account have been done at 958, and for Money at 95k; but just now sales were made of the latter at 948. The Exchequer -bill market is heavy, at 14s. to 17s. premium. Bank Stock has improved from 205 i to 2068. Speculation is rather active in Mexican, in Spanish, and in the Duteh Funds to-day. Prices are, for most of the foreign investments, anything bt.t firm.
