In Great Britain 18,611,733 23,736,405 In Franco 29,701,875 3 5,088,039 In United States 9,068,181 27,354,287 Whereas the growth of population during the same forty years in the eight above-named principal cities of Great Britain, in the capital city of France, and in the fifty chief cities of the United States, is shown to be as follows : 1820. 1860. Great Britain's eight cities 2,250,937 5,151,192 France's capital city 760,000 1,667,811 United States' fifty cities 570,010 4,000,793 In Great Britain the increase ratio of the country popu lation is about 4 to 51, while of the city populationit is 4- to 9. In France the increase ratio of the country popu lation is 4 to less than 5, while of the population of Paris it is 4to almost 9. In the United States the increase ratio of the country population for the same period, although rising to 4 to 12, is outstripped by the increase of the population in cities, which is 4 to nearly 29. But not only do cities oustrip the country in their growth, but great cities outstrip the small cities. In Great Britain, Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds, Bristol, and Bir mingham have increased in their aggregate population from 539,066 in 1820 to 1,651,075 in 1860. London, in 1820, had 1,373,947 inhabitants. The same ratio of in crease as those five cities have enjoyed would give her in 1860 about two and a half quarter millions, but she has gone beyond that mark by half a million, just enough to make a city of the size of Manchester, the next largest in the kingdom, and in 1860 had a population of 2,750,000. Foreign exchange is inactive. Leading bankers ask 1091 net for 60 days' sterling bills. We quote :—Bills at 60 days on London, 108 to 1081 for documentary; 1081 to 109 for commercial ; 1091 1091 for bankers ; ditto at short sight 1101 to 1101 ; Paris at 60 days, sf. 181 c. to 5f 15c. ; ditto at short sight, sf. 121 c. to sf. 11/c.; Antwerp, 5f 18/c. to sf. 161 c. ; Swiss, sf. 161 c. ; Hamburg, 61 to 361 ; Am sterdam, 401 to 41; Frankfort, 401 to 41; Bremen, 791 to 791; Prussian thalers, 711 to 711. Notwithstanding the severe losses of the year the Hanover Fire Insurance Company pays a dividend of 5 per cent. to its stockholders, payable on demand. Glasgow, the chief city of Scotland, has increased three fold in the same period, far surpassing its rivals, while the country has increased fifty per cont. Dublin has risen from 185,000 to 250,000 steadily, despite the fluctuations of population. In the United States the uniformly more rapid concentration of population in the great central cities at large is still more strikingly manifest, as thus : January Interest on the State Debt.—Tho Governor, Auditor, and Treasurer of the State have negotiated a loan with the First National Bank of this city for the amount of money required to pay the January interest on the Indiana State debt—sl6o,ooo. Four notes were given, running 90 days from the 26th of December inst. TIM FRANKFORT MONEY-MARKET. - The Times of Monday states that advices from Frankfort mention that a sudden change had occurred on the Bourse, money having become comparatively abundant. In stock trans actions advances were to be obtained at 4 to 5 per cent., while the terms for discount in the open market had re ceded to 5} per cent., or I below the Bank rate. The stringent measures taken by the Bank against bills for speculative purposes had begun to tell, and the circulation was now considerably reduced. The high rate current in London, however, is stated to have led to the creation of a new sort of bills, which holders deposit with the bankers and draw against, so that they pay only the Bank rate of 51, instead of the London charge of 8 per cent. Notwithstanding the recent condition of the money-mar ket, all 4 per cent. bonds of German States have reached nearly par, and the 3f per cent. 90 to 92, from the direct investment of capitalists. Some descriptions are not any longer to be procured at all. Part of the dividends falling due are invested in American bonds, but not on so large scale as was lately the case. 1820. 1860. Forty-eight principal cities 439,129 3,009,818 Seven larger cities 266,361 1,452,524 New York, Brooklyn, Williams burg, Jersey City, &c. 130,671 1,110,410 A Fenian Ambassadress in Liverpool and Dublin. A good deal has been said, and not a little has been be lieved, to the effect that the Fenian movement has been crushed out in the British Isles by the vigorous efforts made by the imperial Government ; but the stubborn logic of facts emphatically contradict that pleasing belief. It is true that the means of written communication between the members of the Fenian Brotherhood, as well as the more dangerous transmission of money and munition of war, have been all suppressed by the steps adopted on behalf of the authorities ; but this has not by any means prevented the transmission of intelligence and advice as to the mode in which the movement can be most effec tively promoted both in America and in Ireland. In point of fact, it is scarcely a secret that agents or " ambassa dors," as they are styled, pass weekly between Liverpool and New York. These parties carry no documents of any kind of material or article by which the officers of Govern ment could identify them with any treasonable purpose, but they are supplied with such instructions as enable them to communicate orally the wishes and behests of the leaders of the movement, as to maintain a mutual under standing, and a completely consentaneous course of action among the parties on both sides of the Atlantic. In Liver pool it is also an ascertained fact that a gentleman of con siderable attainments acts as kind of charge d'affitires to the body, receiving and despatching property to accredited agents to and fro between this town and New York. A new phase of this guise diplomatic arrangement has just made itself known here. In course of last week, a lady like person of engaging manners and prepossessing aspect arrived in Liverpool by one of the steamers from New York. The lady was unaccompanied, had but a moderate amount of luggage for a "lady traveller," her baggage consisting of two neat but not large trunks, and a glazed leather satchel. She wore no crinoline, and on the voyage, while evincing great general intelligence and good breed ing, spoke in disparaging terms of it and those who were its slaves. On arriving in Liverpool she was conveyed to a first-class hotel, where she spent the remainder of file day of her arrival and the succeeding night. On the- fol lowing day she left this town for Dublin, travelling via Holyhead. Soon after her arrival the lady placed herself in communication with the resident diplomatic gentleman already referred to, with whom she had an interview of about a quarter of an hour's duration. She also gave evidence to another gentleman not so refined, but well known for his Fenian partialities. The lady, it is said, was none other than the somewhat notorious Ellen A. O'lfahony, who recently issued au address to the Fenian Sisterhood nf Nov York, calling on them to contribute to the very utmost of their power the moans requisite to aid in equipping a fleet and raising an army for the political regeneration of Ireland. The history and antecedents of this lady are also said to be both singular and interesting. She is stated to be the only living representative of an ancient and much respected Irish family, but consequent on the social and political partialities of her ancestry the patrimonial property which she should have inherited has passed into alien hands. For this the lady holds the British Government responsible, and has taken strange means, at different times, to demonstrate her wrongs as well as her claims. Some years ago she was well known in Dublin, where, on account of her accomplishments, presumed sufferings, and the sympathy which her family connections created, she was received into the best society of the Irish metropolis. She proceeded to London after leaving Dublin, and there her family prestige and engag ing manners secured for her entre to good society. Subse quently she went to America, and eventually settled in Now York. When the Fenian movement was commenced in that city, instigated by her alleged wrongs, she warmly espoused it, and being known to and respected by many of her countrymen there, she was able to render the Fenian cause great service in the way of obtaining recruits, and procuring pecuniary contributions to the funds. This made her extremely popular with the loaders, and one of the last acts of the Fenian Executive in New York was t o accredit Ellen A. Olf a hony—which, it is needless to say, is not her name—as ambassadress from the American Fenian Irish Republic to the Brotherhood in Ireland. To enable her to discharge the functions of this office it is said she has been endowed with full discretionary power, to aid the movement by any me ans w hi ch in her judgment a ppears best suited to promote it. The lady is now under stood to be in Dublin. How or when she may make any public appearance it is at present impossible to say, but those acquainted with her and her antecedents consider she will have considerable influence with her countrymen and her countr ywomen. —Liverpool Post.

Referring to the rumoured resignation of the Un der Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs in a huff at Mr. Giischen's promotion, the Spectator acidly remarks : Mr. Layard's course is of no earthly importance to anybody except himself and the electors of Southwark, but we pro test against the assumption that the Government is a service' in which people are to rise by seniority. It is bad enough that the ruling committee should be selected only from the six hundred and odd gentlemen who can contrive to please constituencies, but if it is to be limited to the two dozen mon in minor office, we may bid fare well to originality.

The following message was received in the House of Representatives on the 9th inst. : "To the House of Representatives—ln compliance with the resolution of the House of Representatives of the 18th ult., respecting information in regard to steps taken by the so-called Emperor of Mexico, or by a European Power, to obtain from the United Statesa recognition of the so-called Empire of Mexico, and what action has been taken in the premises by the Government of the United States, I trans mit a report from tho Acting-Secretary of State, and the papers by which it was accompanied. "ANDREW JOHNSON. " Washington, Jan. 5,186 G." The first of these papers is a communication from Senor Arroyo to Mr. dorwen, dated March 2, 1865, in which he desired to see Mr. Seward extra-officiallY, and to ascertain whether the recognition of our consul's can be obtained, because of the embarrassments which exist in consequence of their non-habitation, while in Mexico . the exercise of their functions has been continued without embarrassment to the American consuls, and stating that the Government which was that of Don Benito Juarez does not exist either de facto or de jure. A memorandum by Mr. Seward notes that the Marquis do Montholon on 17th July called at tho Department of State, saying that a special agent had arrived from Mexico, bearing a letter from Maximilian to the United States, with papers making certain explanations relative to transactions on the Rio Grande upon which the United States Govern ment had made representations to the Imperial Govern ment of France. The Secretary on the 18th, after conference with the President, returned the letter to Montholon, saying that the United States was in friendly communication with the Republican Government of Mexico, and therefore that the President declined to receive the letter or to hold inter course with the agent who brought it. Xugust I.—Minister Romero informs Acting-Secretary Hunter that Don Louis Arroyo assumes to act as commer cial agent in New York, - without an exequatur or other re cognition by the United Stater Government, and asks whether the Government recognised the right of Maximi lian to make such appointment, or whether, as he believes the case, this Government only sees in the Republic of Mexico a war between it and France, without recognising Maximilian even as a government de facto. The charge, he intimates, may seem to show that the Government of the United States tacitly recognises French intervention in Mexico. Mr. Seward replies (Aug. 9) that no law of the United States prevents a person from advertising himself as con sul, but that his Government, in all its official correspon dence, has recognised no other Government in Mexico than that of Juarez, and assures him that such a commercial agent can perform no consular act relating to the affairs of his countrymen in the United States. To prohibit him from attesting invoices and manifests, says the Secretary, would be tantamount to an interdiction of trade between the United States and those Mexican ports which are not in possession of the Republican Government of that coun try. The consuls of the United States in Mexico who have their exequatur from the Government, only themselves dis charge duties as commercial agents in the ports which are not under the control of that Government, in all respects like those which the person Arroyo, in the same way and to the same extent claims to do in New York in respect to said ports. Senor Romero on the 17th complaims that no positive answer is given to his inquiries, and notifies Mr. Seward that he has submitted the correspondence to his Govern ment, and will wait for instructions ; of which communi cation Mr. Sewaxd makes a formal acknowledgment, with out further explanation. Nov. G.—The Secretary of State addressed Minister Bige low, and represents that the presence and operations of a French army in Mexico, and its maintenance of an autho rity there, is a cause of serious concern to the United States. Nevertheless the objection of the United States is still broader and includes the authority itself which the French army is maintaining. That authority is in direct antagonism to the policy of this Government, and the principle on which it is founded. Every day's experience of its operation only adds some new confirmation of the justice of the views which this Government expressed at the time the attempt to institute that authority first be came known. The United States have hitherto practised the utmost frankness on that subject. They still regard the attempt to establish permanently a foreign and Imperial Govern ment in Mexico as disallowable and impracticable. For the reasons that they could not now agree to compromise the position they have heretofore assumed, they are not prepared to recognise any political institutions in Mexico which aro in opposition to the Republican Government with which we have so long and so constantly maintained relations of amity and friendship. He says, in closing, that it is hardly necessary to say that we should not be dwelling so earnestly upon this branch of political rela tions, if it had not been our conviction that these relations at the present moment supersede those of commerce in the consideration of the American people. Mr. Bigelow, under date of Nov. 30, reports reading the despatch of Mr. Seward to M. Drouyn de Lhuys, who thanked him, though he felt obliged to say that he derived neither pleasure nor satisfaction from its contents. Mr. Seward, on Dec. 16, says :—lt is the President's purpose that France should be respectfully informed upon two points : that the United States earnestly desire to cul tivate sincere friendship with France ; second, that this policy would be brought into jeopardy unless France could deem it consistent with her interest and honour to desist from the prosecution of armed intervention in Mexico to overthrow the domestic Republican Government existing there, and to establish upori its ruins the foreign monarchy which has been attempted to be established in the capital of that country; and, in conclusion, he says that the United States will not recognise Maximilian even if the French troops should be withdrawn from Mexico. The papers submitted include a confidential letter from M. Drouyn do Lhuys to the Marquis do Montholon, dated Paris, Oct. 18, 1865, saying that he had renewed the as surance of the strong desire of the French Government to withdraw its auxiliary corps so soon as circumstances would allow it. The French Government would have been ready to adopt, without a minute's delay, the basis of an ; understanding with the Government of Washington. What • it asked of the United States was, to be assured that it is not their intention to impede the consolidation of the new order of things found in Mexico, and the best guarantee the French Government could desire would be the recognition of the Emperor Maximilian by the Federal Government. Secretary Seward, under date of Dec. 6, 1865, writes a letter to the Marquis de Montholon, in which he says, " After a review of all the facts, the President is gratified with the assurance you give of the Emperor's good dispo sition. I regret, however, to be obliged to say the condi tion which the Emperor presents is one which seems to be impracticable." The Senate has adopted a. resolution, asking the Presi dent for information regarding the military order forbid ding the exportatiOn of arms over the Californian frontier, and whether the order was not a violation of neutrality towards Mexico. The House of Representatives has passed a resolution, asking the President for the correspondence in regard to the kidnapping of a child of an American lady, in the City of Mexico, by the usurper of that Republic, called Emperor, under the pretence of making such child a prince ; whether the United States has been asked to inter fere, with the view of having the child restored to its parents; and what action has been taken upon the subject. The resolution refers to a child of Madame Iturbide. The House has also passed a resolution, declaring that the mili tary forces should not be withdrawn from the late rebel lious States until Congress shall declare their further pre sence unnecessary. The House has asked for the particu lars of the delivery of the Shenandoah to the Government. A bill has been reported to Congress from the committee of ways and means, authorising the issue of 40-year gold bonds, for the purpose of funding the floating debt. Tho interest is to be at the rate of 5 per cent. if made payable in Europe, and 6 per cont. if in America. The bill also provides that interest - bearing notes shall cease to be a legal tender at maturity. Thirty captains of vessels destroyed by the Alabama have been summoned to appear at Capt. Semmes' trial. A. public meeting has been held at the Cooper's Institute, under the auspices of Gen. Rosecranz and others, to de nounce the Spanish aggression on Chili, and the French assaults on Mexico. The attendance was large, and several members of Congress made speeches. Owing to the absence of numerous intending speakers, it was decided to hold another meeting in ten days. The Chilian envoy addressed the meeting, expressing the sympathy of Chili with the United States, and denouncing the conduct of Spain towards Chili. Resolutions were passed declaring that the United States, by constantly, endorsing the Monroe doctrine, had assumed a responsibility to sister Republics, and obliga tions to protect them, which it would be cowardly and dishonourable to neglect and repudiate. Intense cold has prevailed throughout the country since Sunday, the thermometer in New York falling 15 deg below zero ; in other parts of the country to 28 deg. Admi ral Baldwin, RN., has died at Toronto. The Canada has arrived at Halifax. The St. David has also put in there short of coal. The report of Major-Gen. Howard, chief commissioner of the Freedmen's Bureau, was on the Bth inst. laid before the House of Representatives in response to a resolution of that body asking for information in regard to the aban doned and confiscated estates at the South. , The report states that in South Carolina and Georgia the freedmen were assigned a few plantations as homesteads under the orders of Gen. Sherman, and that they have not since been dispossessed of them; but that many other plantations tem porarily occupied and cultivated by freedmen under con tingent orders have been restored to their former owners under recent orders from the Government ; that the Bureau has been deprived of the greater part of such property it formerly held, and is, by the consequent reduction of its revenue, no longer a self-sustaining branch of the Go vernment. Previous orders for the settlement of freed men on abandoned estates have lately in most cases been countermanded. It is understood that the national authorities are about to adopt some importan't changes in the administration of Freedmen's affairs, it being found that the present system does not work advantageously. The Fenian Congress appears at length to have come to something decisive. They have spent five days in delibe ration, and after thoroughly investigating all points brought before them, they have solemnly denounced Mr. Roberts and his Senate. The following resolution was brought forward in the Convention on the 6th inst., and after considerable debate, unanimously end enthusiastically adopted : " Whereas this House, formed in view of the present Lfficulties of the Fenian Brotherhood for the purpose of - finally and irrevocably as a court of last resortdeiermin ing them, is composed of 500 delegates of circles in good standing, and being the largest ever before assembled"; and whereas all the circles of the Fenian Brotherhood in Ame rica have been invited to attend hereat ; and whereas many circles have not come, desiring in good faith to abide the action of the Convention of their brothers, cognizant of facts : " It is hereby ordained beyond further question, that whoever does not, being a delegate, recognise this House in the character stated, or whoever, now being a Fenian, does not submit his judgment to its decision, ceases, ipso facto, to be a Fenian, and for his contumacy shall be cut off from the Brotherhood." It is stated that this resolution is at present endorsed by five hundred out of the six hundred circles representing the organisation. ' COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. Money abundont. Gold, 139.

From Messrs. E. F. Satterthwaile awl co.'s Weekly Circular, January 17.) By the "Cuba" our latest advices from New York are to the 2nd inst.; they report a continued demand for all Government Securities at an advance of about one per cent. On the impression that money would for the next few months be very abundant, there was an active inquiry for Railroad Stocks, notwithstanding the very largo dimi nution in the traffic receipts on most of the roads. Illinois Central remained without change, but in Now York Cen tral and Erie we note au improvement of $1; the latter stock was scarce, and as much as throe-eighths of adollar was paid for one day's loan of the Stock. For Railroad Bonds and State Stocks there was more demand, and quo tations were firm. Gold showed a declining tendency, being last quoted at 144.

The interruption in telegraphic communication with the provinces has much interfered with the transaction of business in the London Market for American Securities during the past week, but on lower quotations of gold from New York there has been a decided improvement. United States 5-20 Bonds have to-day changed hands at 661, but do not leave off at the highest point, the final quotation being 651 to 66. In Illinois Shares the business has been very limited, but they close steady at 76 to 1. Erie Shares have been in request for shipment to New York, and on the week exhibit an improvement of more than $l, closing 57} tot. There has been a slight reaction from the recent ad vance in Atlantic and Great Western Bonds, but the Debentures remain steady with a fair demand, at former quotations.

PRESENTATION BY FRENCH WORKMEN TO THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT.--A Paris correspondent says : I mentioned last summer that the Ph,are de la Loire had opened a subscription in its columns for the purpose of presenting a medal to the American Government in com memoration of the sympathy evinced by the working classes throughout France with the nation on the murder of President LINCOLN. The subscription was limited to one sou, and 5,000 f. was the sum required. This has now been realised, and on the 84th April the ceremony is to take place of entrusting the medal to Mr. CH. THOMAS, ex-editor of the National, and intimately connected with America by his gigantic commercial transactions. Mr. THOMAS will bo the medium of transferring this interest ing memorial to the Congress."
