General SANTA ANNA has issued a proclamation unfolding the character of his intended policy, and nobly have the anticipations of his countrymen been realised! Mier narrowly escaping from the domi nation of an unpatriotic dictator, and that moreover at the very moment when their existence as an inde pendent principality is threatened by the rapacity of a neighbouring Government, the Mexicans will, if they have any regard for their own prosperity, welcome a document which is prophetic of so many national advantages. With a Ministry professing the most ultra-liberal principles, with GOMEZ FARIAS as Minister of Finance, ALMONTE, Minister of War, REJON, Minister of Foreign Affairs, PACHECO, Minister of the Department of Justice, but espe cially with ANTONIO LOPEZ DE SANTA ANNA as President of the Republic, Mexico may now take hope to herself, that without any European intervention she may justify the expectations of her most enthusiastic compatriots, thwart the avaricious machinations of her invaders, and re-establish the integrity of her dominions, and the permanent liberality of her con stitution. Visionary as this beautiful scheme may have appeared hitherto, there is now an opportunity for its successful prosecution. The Mexicans have freedom, tranquillity, wealth, and happiness within their reach, if they will only stretch forth their hand and seize them. Courage, constancy, and unanimity are, however, necessary before those glorious boons can be obtained. An ordeal more terrible than burning plough-shares must be passed before those benefits can be effected. Let them, nevertheless, but take confidence to themselves, and their greatness as a nation, and their glory as a people, are already and lastingly accomplished. Although the Americans have established themselves so formidably upon the frontiers and although they nave actually taken possession of the ports of California, San Francisco, Monterey, and San Diego, there is so much that is propitious in the character of the recent revo lution at Vera Cruz, that the United States may be not merely repulsed in their subsequent aggressions, but may have their present unlawful conquests vio lently. wrested from th e i r grasp . S o great i s the pro . bability of such a vicissitude, that the inhabitants of the towns just mentioned have retreated by a simul taneous movement into the interior so intense and universal is their antipathy to the enlightened annex ators ! But that such an alteration of circumstances in the position of the belligerents is not a frivolous anticipation, is further demonstrated by the vigorous and resolute character of the new Administration, and especially by the principles avouched by the new vkicl4o.,, It is impossible f o r an y one w h o has A . - , -4ttt sympathy with the struggles of a race ,ent compatible with their natal rights, and consonant with the advancement of civilisation, ' it is impossible for such an individual to read the long and eloquent proclamation just issued by SANTA ANNA, without experiencing emotions of exultation at its sentiments, or without yearning for the tri umph of a cause so noble and gigantic. On a former occasion, the new President acknowledges, his policy was essentially different; he struggled for a certain moderation in the liberties ensured by a Republican Government; he aimed at constructing an adroitbalance in the executive authority ; he "hoped to moderate by the inertia of Conservative instincts, the vehemence of popular masses." Experience has taught him a severe hut salutary lesson ; in his solitude and banishment at Havanna he has conned the necessities of his country ; and, taking a warning from the miseries which have been entailed upon Mexico by an adherence to the policy he had originally regarded as alone of beneficial tendencies, he has recognised the real exigencies of her position, and now beholds the necessity of a wholesale reformation. SANTA ANNA saw, moreover that, through the pusillanimity or the perfidy of PAREDES, Mexico was abandoned to a ca lamitous alternative ; that, unless some strenuous and chivalrous effort were made in her behalf, her destinies would never more be in the ascendant ; that she was about to be delivered up, bound hand and foot, to the servitude of a foreign prince, or to be annihilated by a piecemeal annexation. "As one of the principal chiefs of the independence of our country," exclaims SANTA ANNA, " and as founder of the republican system, I was indignant at this endeavour of some of its sons to deliver the nation up to the scoffs of the world, and to carry it back to the ominous days of the conquest. I thereupon took the firm determina tion to come and aid you to save our country from such a stain, and to avoid the horrible consequences of a measure by which its glorious destiny was to be reversed, carrying it back to what it was, and what it never should be again. To execute this determina tion was to offer up my blood to any one who, in case of failure, might choose to shed it, in compliance with the terms of the barbarous decree which drove me from the republic ; but I preferred to perish in this noble attempt, rather than appear indifferent to the ignominy of my country, and see the countless sacri fices made for our independence and the right to govern ourselves rendered illusory." Fired by this heroic resolution, the restored Pre sident appeals to the body of his countrymen to form for themselves a constitution adequate to their wants and capabilities. He demands their suffrages—not an irrespnsible dictatorship. He declares that the will of the majority must govern the obedient minority—not that the will of the minority should domineer over the debased and enslaved majority. His ambition has assumed a benign and humanising lustre. His voice is persuasive with the earnestness of the GRACCHI, with the eloquence of BOLIVAR and PAOLI. " Mexicans !" he exclaims— " There was once a day—and my heart dilates with the remembrance—when leading on the popular masses and the army to demand the rights of the nation, you saluted me with the enviable title of Soldier of the People. Allow me again to take it, never more to be given up, and to devote myself until death to the defence of the liberty and independence of the nation." Let that voice be heard ; let SANTA ANNA, " the Soldier of the People," marshal his countrymen under the gonfalon of liberty ; let the power of the President be restrained within the limits he has himself indicated, and the cause of Mexico is triumphant. One of our poets, who is still living, in the course of a conversation upon the merits of the bard of Avon, remarked, that no matter what play of his was taken up for perusal, the reflective reader could not relinquish its pages without feeling he was a better man. Incomparable as is the language of SHARE SPERE, highly artistical as is the manner in which the various passions of our nature are marshalled, challenged, and developed in his unexampled produc tions, it is, nevertheless, to the truthfulness of the ob servation, that a lofty strain of morality pervades the whole of them, that we must assign, beyond all others, the cause of the great hold which the writings of our immortal poet have for centuries preserved over the literary affections of this and every other civilised country. Parva magnis componere, we feel justified in asserting that a perusal of any one of Lord MOIL PETH'S speeches never fails to imbue the mind with pure and enlarged views. The address recently de livered by the Noble Lord at the Mechanics' Institu tion in Bradford, adds another laurel to the moral, intellectual, and statesmanlike reputation of the Chief Commissioner of her MAJESTY'S Woods and Fo rests. The classicality of Lord MORPETR'S mind ever clothes his ideas in simple and winning language, certain of captivating the audience, whilst their rea son is equally sure of being convinced by the great and enduring truths which his Lordship so touch ingly imparts, and advocates with such invariable success. It is delightful to contemplate the existence and rapid spread of the numerous mechanics' institutes already established in our various towns and cities. But a few years ago the miserable cry was being con stantly dinned into our ears of a little knowledge being a dangerous thing, and of the consequent impolicy, not to say cruelty, of attempting to educate the humbler classes of our com patriots. Selfish and uncharitable thoughts ! A master mind, however, was present among us to break the spell of this ignoble delusion. Lord BROUGHAM, to whom the dispassionate voice of pos. terity will yield the palm of having, beyond any other man of his age, by his gigantic grasp of intellect, originated most, and accelerated many, of the useful reforms, political and social, of the nineteenth cen tury—Lord BROUGHAM led the van, and the seeds, scattered under his influence and that of other worthy coadjutors, are already teeming with fruit, and general education, as a national duty, happily occupies, at the present hour, a large space in the public mind. The formation of literary, scientific, and mechanical re pertories, under the associated auspices of private benevolence, constituted the nucleus from whence a wholesome impetus was given towards the supply of the mental wants and desires of all classes, the highest and wealthiest excepted. The satisfactory working of these institutions awakened Lord MELBOURNE'S Government to the propriety of obtaining, through Parliament, an annual sum of 30,0001., in furtherance of enlightening the ignorant masses of the community. That sum, since increased to 50,0004 was, and is, paltry indeed, but the principle conceded was all potential; and every hour testifies to the deep interest which the industrial classes, who form the great plat form of society, take in its further progress. Re trospectively contemplated, the mechanics' institutes are like so many rills, springing, almost unobservedly, as it were, from a distant and scarce regarded upland : a healthy stream is now flowing from their tributary confluence, refreshingly invigorating every soil through which A meanders, and, growing with its growth, and strengthening with its strength, it pro mises to expand, compass, and fertilize the most barren and unfavoured spots of Great Britain. Much as is generally expected from the Government in the ensuing session, in reference to stimulating the cause of national education, still it must be re collected that the functions of the Government, on so large a question as this, will derive their chief utility through the superintendent and directive powers with which Parliament may think proper to invest them. l'he magnitude of the sum that would be required to place within the reach of the rising generation the advantages of a sound and elementary education, would be an encumbrance far beyond what the public finances could support. Parliament can, and doubt less will, do much in countenancing, and, to a pru dent extent, contributing towards what is necessary in supporting a well-organised system; but, as Sir R. PEEL has already declared in the House of Commons, for the success of any scheme for this splendid object, the hearty co-operation of individual benevolence must be chiefly looked to and relied upon. Acknow ledging the force of this observation, we regard the well-being of the mechanics' institutes with peculiar gratification. Their active promoters must applaud the philosophical wisdom with which Lord MORPETH has indicated the means at their command for ac complishing a vast amount of ulterior good, exclusive of what they have hitherto so benignly prosecuted ; and no apprehension crosses our mind ; on the con trary, it i s re d o l en t o f h o p e th a t an en li g h tene d an d liberal support will be given to the mental progress an - I moral culture of the United Empire. Lord MORPETII, addressin g th e great employers of l a b our, wisely said," I feel it to be eminently theirduty, but not more their duty than their interest, to take every means of surrounding themselves with an orderly, a refined, and an educated population. I believe they will find this to be the case in every respect. It will return to them in a thousand ways, however little immediatly concerned the subject-matter of the studies may appear with the daily business with which they are connected. In the words of POPE— " True self•love and social are the same;" by promoting the good of others you are sure in the end to promote your own." These are great comprehensive truths. Through the homage that has been paid to them, tardily and scantily though it has been, we have already considerably advanced in the path of civilisation. Let us but press on with un quenchable zeal in the same direction, and inestimable blessings will crown our exertions, whilst England will shine with greater lustre than ever as the gre%test nation the world ever produced. The plan proposed by Mr. O'Colirixu. for an as semblage of the Irish landlords has obtained many supporters from amongst those who, a short time since, would have regarded with the greatest suspicion and distrust any proposition coming from, or advocated by, him. In fact, a great body of landowners, and others interested in the soil of the country, who are justly solicitous for the continuance and permanency of the legislative union between Great Britain and Ireland, and who would be conscientiously opposed to any project that could by a possibility be turned as a weapon against that union, had formerly been ac customed to consider that all Mr. O'CONNELL'S ex ertions were directed to the attainment of that which he avowed to be the great object of his life—the repeal of that union ; and they imagined that his every suggestion, his every act must tend in that direction. Much of the mischief, many of the evils by which Ireland has so long been oppressed, have been greatly increased in amount, and continued for a much longer period than would otherwise have been the case, in consequence of the mutual distrust, the unhappy divisions, that existed amongst her children. Whenever any measure was put forward, however useful it might be, however little calculated to injure any person or class, and however strongly founded on equity And justice, the first inquiry was not as to the probable results of the measure itself, the evils it was intended to remedy, the benefits it was intended to confer, but who was its originator, by whom was it advocated and supported. If those parties were obnoxious the measure was condemned. If it appeared calculated to insure the greatest advantage to the parties themselves, still they would shake the head, and say, " You may be sure there is more in it than meets the eye"—each assumed for his motto— " Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes ;" and arrayed himself in direct hostility to that which he did not take the trouble to investigate or comprehend. A great and marked improvement has lately taken place amongst Irishmen of all classes in this respect. The exigencies and wants of the labouring populations the imperative necessity that existed for every one to lend his assistance for the purpose of relieving and mitigating the existing distress, afforded one neutral ground where the parties could meet without causes of disunion arising, and each found that he had been in the habit of judging rather more harshly of his neighbour than he deserved, that he was really an ' intelligent, well-meaning man, although mistaken in political opinions, and that he made excellent sugges tions, and took clear views on the subject on which they were occupied. The sacred cause in which they were engaged, the difficulties of their own position, smoothed down the asperities and prevented the breaking out of the animosities that had previously existed. We are happy to say that there is much less prejudice existing in Ireland at this moment than was the case a few short months ago, before the occurrence of the visitation that deprived the people of their chief article of food. The admirable conduct of Mr. O'CoNNELL himself and the great body of his followers ; the prompt and vigorous manner in which the ad vocates for physical force were put down and their doctrines combatted, and their pernicious tendency exposed ; the good faith observed in abiding so strictly by the moral force principle, had great effect in satisfying his opponents of the sincerity and truth of his declarations, that if an assemblage of: landlords should be collected together, their proceedings would be restricted and confined to the object that had called them together, "to assist in the management of such Irish affairs as relate to the approaching famine," and that neither repeal or any similar subject would be brought forward on the occasion. All. RALPH OSBORNE was one of the first who gave in his adherence to the proposal. He published a letter calling on his brother landowners " to throw all political differences to the winds, and by taking counsel together, endeavour at least to assuage the calamity which is impending ;" and he added " that a meeting of the landholders of Ireland, with the Duke of LEINSTER in the chair, would at once insure the respectful attention of Government and the warm sympathy of the English people." We think that attention is already bestowed, that sympathy is not wanting—from our hearts it is given to our Irish brethren; and sincerely do we hope that they may extricate themselves from the difficulties by which they are encompassed. Such an assemblage judi ciously arranged would act as a central body, to receive and canvass the suggestions offered by any for the amelioration of the condition of the people, the affording employment of a profitable and re munerative character, and the developing to the utmost the capabilities of the soil. Many projects that might eventually be most beneficial in their effects, would be brought forward in such a body that otherwise would never see the light. These con siderations have induced many to coincide with the opinion of Mr. OSBORNE, and a requisition was pre pared, and is in course of signature, for a meeting of landlords, to be held in Dublin, for the purpose of pressing upon Government the necessity of at once summoning Parliament, in order that the provisions of 9 and 10 Vic., cap. 107, might be altered. Since that period, however, the Government have taken upon themselves the responsibility of making that alteration, the manner of which is set forth in the letter addressed by his Excellency to the Chairman of the Board of Works, and which will, in a great degree, dispense with the necessity of an immediate assemblage of the Legislature. The meeting of the nobility and gentry of the county of Westmeath, which took place on the requi sition of the Marquis of WESTMEATH, the Lieutenant of the county, at Mullingar, on Friday last, and which was attended by persons of all varieties of poli tical opinion, gave additional support to the proposal. A resolution was carried, that it has become just and necessary that a meeting of the Irish gentry should be forthwith held in Dublin, to remonstrate with the Government on its seeming inaction, and to lay before it, in feeling terms, the awful condition to which the country is now reduced. Although the requisition, or the resolution, is not in terms in exact accordance with the proposition of Mr. O'CONNELL, yet they are intimately connected therewith, and it is extremely probable that such an Irish national committee of landed proprietors, no bility, and gentry, as he recommends, would be found at the meeting alluded to, and which is now very likely to take place speedily. Should such be the case, we sincerely hope that their labours may be productive of benefit to their suffering country. The treaty of Commerce, recently concluded be tween Russia and Turkey, is published in the St. Petersburgh journals. The following are the princi pal provisions of this treaty, which has been concluded for ten years : " The tariff at present regulating the duties to be levied on the Russian commerce in Turkey, although concluded in 1842 for 12 years, will not remain in force longer than during the period of the present treaty, and both are to be renewed at the same time, at the expira tion of that term. By article 1, anterior treaties, and particularly the treaty of 1783, and article 7 of the treaty of Adrianople aro renewed. The port further promises to Russia the full and entire employment of every right, benefit, or advantage, which is or shall be hereafter accorded in its states to the most favoured nations. In virtue of article 2, the customs' duties remain invariably fixed at 3 per cent. for foreign commerce, and shall be levied as heretofore. According to article 3, Russian subjects or their agents can purchase the produce of the soil, or of the manufactories of Turkey, whether to export them, or to trade with them in the interior of the Otto man empire, without being subject to dues of passage, licenses, &c. This liberty of trading in all the towns of the Ottoman empire, accorded to Russian subjects, is partly restricted by Arts. 10 and 11, according to which fishing, and the sale of fish, leeches, alum, salt, tobacco, snuff, wines, and spirituous liquors are subject to certain dues in favour of the Ottoman treasury. Wines and strong liquors cannot be sold in detail by Russian subjects, either in shops or vesiele, ' ri w ,r,*k#Ye' ) : . } - :,<Z,,,''):;.*, f-- , 41.,' : ~..:- ,t ~..,, ),I `f --.:i.. , ..

This is the restric tion which the Porte has considered itself obliged, as a Mahometan state, to impose on the traffic of intoxicating liquors; cannons, gunpowder, &c., are to remain pro hibited; private persons can only svll powder and shot in small quantities for shooting. Art. 3 permits the Porte to prohibit the exportation of provisions in case of scarcity, provided the Russian Legation be informed of such intention in proper time. In virtue of Art. 4 all articles produced either from the soil or manufactures of Russia or foreign countries are to be admitted into all ports of the Ottoman Empire on payment of a duty of 3 per cent., but as a compensation for the dues which had been previously imposed on the said objects, the Rus sian merchant is to pay a supplementary duty of 2 per cent, only. For the payment of this additional duty the Russian merchant will be allowed, on giving a sufficient guarantee, the delay of a y ear . By Art. 15 the Porte engages, that in the pachalic of Egypt and its dependencies the Russian commerce shall meet with the same facilities of detail and arrangements as are ac corded to the most favoured nations. Goods of Russian or foreign produce, imported by merchants into the principalities of Wallachia, Moldavia, and Servia, are to pay the duties stipulated by Art. 4 to the Customs of these principalities only, without paying anything in the Ottoman Empire, properly so called. Turkish merchants trading in Russia are to be treated as those of the most favoured nations, but on conditi on o f comp l y i ng w ith the laws and regulations existing in Russia relative to commerce," Madrid Papers of the 2d have arrived. Count BRESSON and QUEEN CHRISTINA have adopted a new method of silencing the journals. The Tiempo, the organ of the Pacheco section of the Mo derado party, has, for some time past, attacked the anti-national doctrines and practices of the Afran cesados. It was determined to muzzle the Tiempo; accordingly prosecution followed prosecution, and seizure followed seizure, until at length, worn out by this constant system of annoyance, the proprietors con sented to sell the paper to the QUEEN and the Court for 13,000 dollars, and the Tiempo is now a sort of tender to the Reralda- The editor of the Eco del Comercio was again tried on the Ist, and again acquitted. This acquittal was celebrated among the friends of the liberty of the press by a public dinner. In the course of the trial the judges laid down a most important doctrine as regards the security of public writers. They dis tinctly declared that a paper ..ixed before circulation cannot be condemned for libels which the public have not seen. The. editor of the Espectador was tried and acquitted on the same day. The Espanol, in alluding to the note of Lord PALMERSTON to M. GUIZOT, having stated that the English Government had protested against the suc cession of a child of the Duke DE MONTPENSIER to the throne of Spain, the Herald° says :—" We think the Espanol has gone even further than the note communicated by Lord NORMANBY. England and Europe may protest against the distant and almost impossible eventuality of the union of the arms of France and Spain upon the same head, but neither England nor any other nation in the world can deprive the children of an Infanta of Spain of the rights which they inherit from their mother. We have already said that there u nothing more easy than to prevent all difficulties in Europe by the renunciation by the Duke DE XONTPENSIRR of his eventual rights to the crown of France. This is what we think Europe wishes, and what we believe will take place." In the same journal we find the following on the subject of the IsrAtirs'a dowry : " The act of renunciation of the Duke de Montpensier to the dotation of his bride, the Infanta, is now official. Her dowry amounts to fifty-seven millions, including money, jewels, and the fine property of Vista-Alegre. During the residence of the young couple at Paris, Louis Philippe will Pay all expenses, and in addition give them 10,000 f. a month. At his death the Ki ng w i ll leave the Duke three millions." The English fleet is still cruising between Cape St. Vincent and Trafalgar. It is said that Admiral Sir W. PARKER. is in constant communication with Mr. BULWZR. MADRID BOLSA, OCT. 2.—The Three per Cents. were done at 344, the Four per Cents. at 21k, the Five per Cents., at 21k, the Passives at 64, and the Coupons at 20k. We have received the Paris papers of Wednesday. We find the following in the Constitutionnel on the subject of M. GUIZOT'S answer to the note pre sented by the Marquis of NORMANIIT : It appears that M. Guizot replied only on Sunday to Lord Normanby's notes, and he did not reply in a direct manner -, he confined himself to giving a copy to the English Ambassador of a dispatch which he was for warding to M. de Jarnac, our Charge d'Affaires at Lon don. This dispatch, drawn up in an evasive manner, and in which the question is eluded rather than treated on, is not of a nature, it is said, to terminate the cool ness between the two Governments. It is stated that in return for this communication LOrd Normanby left M. Guizot a copy of a new protest, still more energetic than the first, and which had been handed to M. Isturitz by Mr. Bulwer. It likewise appears that protests are mul tiplied in Spain, the Ministry having just received those of the cities of Saragossa and Barcelona." On Wednesday the French Government dispatched couriers to St. Petersburgh, Berlin, and Vienna, with notes from M. GUIZOT, officially notifying to those Courts the approaching marriage of the Due DE MONTPENSIER with the INFANTA. The Debats publishes long accounts of the pro gress of the Dues DE MONTPENSIER and D'AUMALE through the Basque provinces. _ A fresh, and by no means unimportant combatant, has entered the field against the French Ministry, on the subject of the Montpensier marriage. It is M. DE LAMARTINE, who, in a long and eloquent letter, addressed to the Editor of the Macon paper, de nounces the Ministry as having been knowingly , guilty, in this affair of sacrificing the national in terests of France to the personal and pecuniary in terests of the Orleans' family. M DE LAMARTINE concludes his letter in these words : " What are we to conclude from what has been said? That the nation and the dynasty are radically incompa tible? That we must v iolently separate one from the other, if we wish to prevent one from absorbing the other, or both from destruction in a mortal embrace? No; we are acquainted with the difficulties; we do not declare the impossibility of the co. existence of heredi tary monarchy with th e national sovereignty and the national policy of France . But if this co-existence, sible possible e xcept on one condition. ' as we hop e i t i s f or the repose of which was once more attempted by the revolution of July, nation i s s , it reallyi i s no longerpossible, The family and dynast i c spirit must be effaced and com pletely disappear in presence of the national spirit an d in terests as crowned by t h e revolution, or the national spi r it and interests must disappear and become subordinate to th e ideas and the ambition of family. Without one of the se conditions there can be no peace. Now, in this affair, as in all the affairs of France, on which s id e are you ? which o f th e two interest will you sacrifice ? If it b e that of France, rejoice with the Cabinet of the Tuileries, for it has married a son of the King. Is it that of the dynasty ? Be afflicted and uneasy with us, for the Ca binet of the Tuileries has loosened the bonds of the al liances of the revolution, compromised France, placed peace in jeop a rdy, sown rivalities, excited civil war in Spain, heaped up clouds of discontent upon the Conti nent, rendered the future gloomy, and has drawn the sword of diplomacy not for a cause, but for a dowry of difficulties, This dowry will press as heavily upon the Cabinet of the Tuileries as upon the country. The whole of this affair may be characterised in two words—a cala mitous temerity—une etourderie etrompe." The news from Algiers is to the 10th ult. At that time the country was perfectly tranquil. Bou MAZA had retreated, and ABD-EL-KADER had met with such ill success in his attempts to excite the Arab tribes against France, that General CAVAIGNAC had returned with his column to Djemma Ghazaouat, his presence being no longer necessary among the native tribes. 15th ult., and The steamer sen t as a presen t f rom the French to the Tunisian G overnment, arr i ve d a t T un i s on th e by the Fr enc h C onsul, in the name o f th e K ING o f the FRENCH. was presented to the BEY in due form The Three per Cents dosed on the Paris Bourse on Wed nesday at 82f. 55c.; the Five per Cents., 1171. 30c.; the ' Orleans Rail roa d Shares 1,. , 260 f • Rouen, 946 f. 25c; Havre, 7201. ; Great Northern, 7181 7 2 5 c.; Avignon, 917 f. 50c; Vierzon, 621 f. 25c. ; Boreaux 5601. ; Boulogne, 482 f. 50 c.; Troyes and Mont I)ieppe, 3701.; P erean 3701 • Basle, 2301 . ; Fampoux , 3951 . ; Dieppe, 3701. ; Paris and Strasburg , . 5001. ; Tours and Nantes, 505 f.; Paris and L yons, 5251. ; Lyons and Avignon, 4921. 50c. ; Bordeaux and Cette, 482 f. 50c. ; Spanish Domestic Debt, 33i.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday, were 6,000 bales at full rates, including 1,000 on speculation ; 5,000 American, at 4d. to 5i1.; 200 Bahia, at 6id.; 300 Egyptian, at 60. to 9d. ; 200 Surats, at 31d. ; and 250 Sea Island, at 10d. to ls. 4d. per lb. 200 of the latter were taken on speculation. The market is firm. The private letters received from the United States this morning do not go the :length the journalists do as to the deficiency in the crops. This is just what we expected. False rumours have been set afloat on the other side of the Atlantic, with the sole view of influencing prices here, and a very good harvest has been already reaped thereby at the expense of the consumers here. The following extract from the New York Herald upon the subject, is worth attentive perusal. Alluding to the state of the Cotton Market at New York it is remarked . " The excessive depression of the previous year, how ever, has been avoided, and the closing rates are a frac tion higher than those which prevailed at the opening of the season. As regards the crop of 1845, it was early manifest that excessive drought for a long period had materially curtailed the extent of the production in South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, &c. ; but at the same time an impression prevailed that the increased yield in the sections of country bordering on the Missis sippi river would go far to counterbalance the de ficiency in the States on the Atlantic. The result, how ever, proves that this calculation was widely erroneous, and is another among the many instances on record which evidence the futility of early estimates. Accord ing to our general cotton table, the total receipts at al the shipping ports, up to the latest dates, amount to 2,056,314 bales, against 2,117,812 bales at same time last year—showing a deficiency of 361,498 bales. This amount includes 1,321 bales received at this port from Texas, while that state was still a foreign country ; and when this item is deducted, and certain addi tions are made for the stocks on hand at Macon, Augusta and Hamburgh, the receipts overland at Phila delphia and Baltimore, &c., the crop of the United State:, as made up by the New York Shipping and Com mercial List, will probably be not far from 2,075,000 bales, against 2,394,503 bales last year. This amount, however, will not include any shipments which may have been made from Texas to the northern ports, or to Europe, since the 16th day of February last, the date of the transfer of the Custom-house to the United States, of which there are no published accounts, but which, as well as the stocks at the shipping ports—if there be any—now properly belong to the crop of the United States." In Mark-lane there appeared to be a check given to a further rising of prices. We cannot, however,• quote values lower than in the early part of the week. The sales of corn at the country markets are represented as having been very large indeed. The Consul Market has suddenly receded from 95i to 951, both for Money and the Account, and without any very apparent cause, as the sales have certainly not been large. The premium upon Exchequer-bills is 16s. to 19s. In the Foreign Stock Market there has been an im provement in Russian Bonds to 1111, and in Mexican to 861. Spanish Passives have been at 58 ; the Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. at 59k, and the Four per Cents. at 92k. Most of the Railway Shares are in bad demand this morning.
