The Legiilature was appointed to convene in De cember next to elect senators to. Congress, and to proceed to the complete formation of the State Go vernment. A dispute had aii.en between the Government of the Sandwich Islands and the French Consul, M. Dillon. This gentleman had for some time been at loggerheads with the Government. The arrival of a French frigate and a war steamer at Honolulu in duced,M. Dillon to make certain demands upon the Government, threatening them with force in case of non compliance. The demands, as near as we can learn, were— " 1. A reduction of duties on brandies and liquors of one-half of all such duties as have been collected since 18 46. 2. The same rights to Catholics and their schools as arc grunted to Protestants. 3. The repeal of a law which compels whale ships importing liquor for sale to pay port charges. 4. The remission of a fine imposed upon some captain of a whale ship. There were 5.011,0 minor demands relative to redress and satisfaction for in dignities and insults offered to the French republic."- These demands were made, and three days allowed for the Government to comply o r r e f use . The King being absent, the Admiral waited until his return, when the Government, refusing to comply with the demands, the French troops landed and took possession of the, fort. ' No resistance being. offered, the French rsixiiitietliiiid: threw from the ramparts the guns of the - fort, destroyed the ammunition and public stores, and took possession of all the Hawaiian vessels that were in port. The Hawaiian flag was lowered and the French hoisted. After the quiet possession of the fort for three days the French .abandoned it, and retired on board their vessels, which shortly afterwards left the port, taking with them M. Dillon and family, who intended returning to France via New York. The British Consul. General and the American Consul protested against the action of the French forces; the former offered his services as mediator, but was refused. The general impresion was that M. Dillon had exceeded his powers. [PRICE eSD. AMERICAN NEWS. LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY. - . By the royal mail steam-ship Hibernia, Captain Stone, we have advices from New York to, the 14th, and Halifax to the 17th inst. The Cambria, hence, arrived at Boston on the 10th, and the America, at Halifax, on the 15th inst. The West India mail steam-ship Dec arrived at Mobile on the sth inst. The steam-ship Empire City reached New York on the 10th inst., with late intelligence from California. She left Chagres on the 29th ult., and Kingston, Jamaica, on the 4th inst. She had on freight to New York about 750,000 dollars' Worth of gold-dust. The royal mail steam-ship Tay arrived at Chagres on the 28th ult., and left on the evening of the 30th for Carthagena,with the mails and bullion from South America. Thence she sailed, and reached Kingston on the Ist inst. The annexation meeting appointed to take plt.ce at Montreal came off on the Bth inst., without causing any disturbance. The advices from California extend to the Ist ult. From various newspapers we extract the most inte resting items relative to the condition of the country, the yield of gold, &c. • "Discoveries have been made which almost induce us to believe that the wth.le country, from San Diego to Cape Mendocino, from the Pacific to the topmost ridge of the Nevada, and heaven knows how much further east ward, has been completely seasoned and spiced with the yellow grains. News reached San Francisco of a large `placer' having boon found on Trinity River—a stream which sues in the Coast Range and empties into the Pacific opposite the head of the Sacramento valley. The story was soon verified by intelligence from tLe diggings on the American Fork, which stated that the diggers were leaving iu large bodies for the Trinity placer, where men were said to wash out 100 dolls.. a day.

We shall make a great raise on the loads I have sent there.' • " Near the Mission of San Antonio, situated among the Coast M.,untains, sixty miles south of this, a wash ing of considerable richness has been discovered. At the last accounts, a number of people were working there, with fair success, and traders are beginning to send their teams in that direction. Gold is said to exist in small quantities near the Mission of Carmel, only four miles from this town, and, in fact, there is every geolo gical indication of it. That San Francisco itself is built on a placer, lam well satisfied. To my certain know ledge, boys have picked 4 dolls. and 5 dulls. in a few hours from clay dug 30 feet below the surface, in sink ing a well. The story of Mr. Harrison, the collector, haling found gold in the adobes of the Customhouse, is something more than a good joke. But by 'far the must COAIMERCIAL IN TELLIGENCE. NEW YORK, Nov. 14.—The money market continues to be in a sound and wholesome cuodition. The decline in foreign exchange has entirely put a stop to the export of sp.: tie.

It is uothing loss than a vein of gold in the solid rock—a hoha fide mine, the first which has been found in Cali- furnia. Whether it was first detecte d by a t arty of Sonomans or by the company which Colonel Fremont organized last spring, and which has since been work ing in the same locality, is a disputed point, though I hclielo the credit is due to the latter. At any rate the gold is there, and in an extraordinary abundance. I saw some specimens which were in Colonel Fre mont,'s possession. The stone is a reddish quartz, tilled with rich veins of gold, and far surpassing the speci- Li( xchauge there has be en a fair business done in foreign for this s!earner, but at much lower rails, the market closing flatly. We quote bills on London, 9+ to lq per cent, for the principal busipess, and even at lower rates slabs have been made; France, sf. 234 a.

Tne transactions in prominent securities since the departure of the Europa have ist-en to :air sxtent, with an upward tendency in prices. United States' Sixes of '67 end '6B continue in request for Tr mittances at 114 to 114+. United States' Sixes of '6B with Cou pons, Lowtv,r, command 116 to 1161. Inv: spirt-pis are also made in the Sixes of '56 at 108 to 108 i; in '62, at 1111 to 1121; and in the Five per Cents. of 't3, at 102 to 102 k. New Yerk State Stocks are in demand, but cannot be procured to any extent at quotations. There has been quite a speculative movement of late in Pennsylvania Fives; it is the general impression that the usual deduction from the interest on these bonds for slf.-te tax will be abolished at the approaching session W.' the.L•gi•dature. There appears to be no doubt that the next report of the treasurer will be highly satisfactory. The Public Works have yielded 67,000 dolls. more than last year to the same period. The revenue from colla teral and other taxes have also improved so much that the state has been enabled already to purchase 250,000 dolls. of her own stock. It is sincerely to be hoped that the Legislature will take this step at once, and thereby thaw Pennsylvania securities upon a leiel with those of ht r sister states. Alabama Bonds have beep taken pri. veto:) , for some time past, and 77 has been paid for Dollar Fives; Sterling Sixes are offered at 90. Ohio Sixes are without transactions of impertance, and remain firm. Cotton—From the departure of the Europa to the re ception of the Ilibernia's favourable accounts our mar ket was quiet, but then au advance of ka. to 11. was obtained, which, however, owing to the disposition of holders to realise, was subsequently lost, the market rc marling steady until the arrival of the Cambria, velasn an advance of ic. was again established, but this was in turn lost, holders still being free sellers; our quotations, therefore, as revised, stand almost precisely as ou the 33 instant, the date of our notice of the market fur the steamer Europa. The total receipts at all the shipping ports are 281,191 bales against 344,636 to same d ates last year—a decrease this season of 63,445 bales. The total foreign export this year is 141,029 bales less than last, say 120,953 bales decrease to Great Britain, 6 121 decrease to France, 11,145 decrease to North of Europe, and 2,810 decrease to other foreign ports. The ship ments from Southern to Northern ports are 11,801 bales more this season than last; and there is an increase in stock of 49,563 bales. The tales for the week end, d Friday, the 9th, were 8,800 Ll(s ; and since our lust, 7,200, as follows: wens brought from N9rth Carolina and Georgia. Some stones picked up on the tap of the quartz strata, without particular selection, yielded 2 oz. of gold to every 251 b. Colunel Fremont informed me that the vein had been traced for more than a mile. The thickness on the surface is two feet, gradually widening as it descends,. and showing larger particles of gold. The dip down wards is only about 20 degrees, so that the mine can be worked with little expense. These are the particulars first given me when the discovery was announced. Still more astonishing facts have just come to light.. A geologist, sent out to examine the place, arrived here last night. He reports having traced the vein a distance of two leagues, wish au average breadth of 150 feet. At oue extremity of the mine he found large quantities of native silver, which he calculates will fully pay the ex pens© of setting up machinery and working it. The ranche upon which it is situated was purchased by Col. Fremont in 1846 from Alvarado, former governor of the territory. It was then considered nearly worthless, and Colonel Fremont only took it at the moment of leaving the country, because disappointedin obtaining another property. The discovery has mliale a great sensation throughout the country; yet it is but the first of many such. The Sierra Isleleda is pierced in every part with these priceless veins. which will produce gold for centuries after every spot of earth from base to sum mit shag have been turned over and washed out. "So much for the gold. in other respects the country is tolerably quiet ; speculation in lots, though still going on, having assumed a more cautious char ter. San Francisco, Stockton, Sacramento City, and! San Joe 6 still maintain their value. Benicia lots are rather dull, and have slightly fallen, while Colonel Stevenioa's New-York-of-the Pacific, with its awkward and absurd title, does not seem to bo thought of. A town nsmed Vernon, at the mouth of Feather River, is rising rapidly to nutice, and another is said to be springing up on nity River. Many persons have made large lortunds by baying up lots at a lucky time and selling them still more luckily. A case was told me of a young man who last fall borrowed money euou4l2 to ray his passage from the Sandwich Islands to San Francisco, and who is ❑ow on his way home with 80,000 dulls. made in this manner. Three or tour gentlemen, who came up in the Panama, have already made 20,000 dolls. by similar operations. A friend of mine, who shipped lumber from New York, to the amount of 1,000 dolls:, sold it .here for 14,000 dolls. Houses which cost 300 dolls. fell readily for 3,000 dolts., and the demand is con stantly increasing. At least 75 hou►-s have been import,el from Canton, and are put up by Chinese carpenters. Nearly all the chairs in private families are of Chinese manufacture, and thero arc two restaurants in the town kept by ICtng-sung and Wang-tong, where very palatable chow chow, curry, and tarts, are served up by the Celestials. Washing is stills dolls. a dozen, and the consequence is large quantities of soiled linen are sent to the antipodes to be puritied. A vessel just in from Canton brought 250 dozen, which were sent out a few months ago; another from Sandwich Islands brought 100 dozen, and the practice is now becoming general. San Francisco is, iu fact, more metr,politan in its character than any other Frt in the world. Its trade with all parts of the Pacific is rapidly increasing. The overland emigration is pouring into the country in a full tide. The reports which reached here of distress nu the routes, and the certainty that many of the emi-• grant's would need aid before reaching the settlements, caused a public movement in favour of raising sup plies to send out on the routes. Private individuals and companies contributed largely, and General Riley, on bring applied to, promptly give a carte blanthe to Major Canley and Captain Kane, of the Q.M. depart ment, to furnish all the assistance in their power. Several hundrLd pack mules, under the charge of competent officers, have been sent to Vallecitos, at the edge of the great dev rt, and to the sink of •Hum boldt's river, in the great boson, the places where emi grants will mast require aide. Word has reached us that many waggons have stopped et the latter place, uLable to proceed further. I have beard of no such distress on the northern route Si on the southern. The emigrants in the north, so far es I learn, have not been molested by the Indians, while the hostilities of the Yumas and Maricapas, at the Colorado crossing, have already cost the companies on the Gila the loss of seve• ral lives. " As to prices, all mining tools are high, as ate also all articles upon whieli'labour has been performed here. Picks, 5 dolls.; pans, 5 dolls.; erailes for washing gold, three feet long, worth 2 dolls. in the States, sell here !or 40 dolls.; fl mar from 8 dolls. to 10 dolls. per hundred ; pork, 50 dolls. per hundred ; eoffte, 18 dolls.;, board, 21 dolls. per : week, or 1 dolt. 500. per meal, with the privilege of sleeping under the nearest tree unoccu pied. At the mines, s,ixty miles distant, prices are doubled, and of some things trebled ; brandy, 2 dolls. per bottle. At -the mines they are making on an average an ounce of gold per -day. One man who arrived here this month nestle in two weeks 25,000 dolls., and has gone to S.in Francisco to take passage to the States. Labour is in proportion to the produce of the mince, ,ranging from . 18 dolls. to 8 per day. Vessels cut - Ali:me to arrive at San Francisco from the United States. When I left there, two weeks ago ' 102 vessels had arrived out of the 250 which sailed from different ports iu the Llt.ited States during the winter and spring. Si. co then they aro beginning to crowd in more rapidly. I was this morning informed, though not from the most reliable authority, that 45 bad arrived in two days. The harbour presents for miles an unbroken forest of masts—ships from every nation and c country here, idle and worthless, with no prospect of ever kavirg --L-many must go down at their anchor, for there are not men enough unemployed to work the 20th part of them. The men will leave; there is no way of detaining them for duty on board; the naval force has been weakened by desertion, and there is no human effort or possibility to prevent the 'custom' of deserting. C; : m. mender Jones has barely force enough on board to form a crow, much less to tender assistance to merchantmen. There are yet scores of vessels in port that have been months endeavou ing to discharge —some have no con signers, others too many — many have captains, while numbers are without there, and without use for the com modity-. We have many converted into storehouses, hotels, l o d g i n g-houses, and hospitals. This is the only phce in the woe 1:1 where Jack forgets the sanctity of the foreoastk."

Sales of sugar had then made at 163. to 183. for dark qualities, and at 20a. to 223. for fair descriptions. Colombian doubloons were quoted 1 per cent. premium.
