CekiEY MARKET A ND coiAMEROTAL INTELLIGENC-. CITY, Two O'CLOCK. The Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday closed flatly, and prices of all descriptions were without any alteration, The sales were estimated at 1,000 bales. The Railway Share Market closed with a dull appearance, and values tended downwards. According to the letters received this morning, trade in the textile manufacturing districts is be coining rather depressed. The dulness is increas ing, and until monetary and commercial affairs in America settle down into a most satisfactory con dition no improvement cm be anticipated. The failures recorded on the other side of the Atlantic, besides causing embarrassment here, promote a very uneasy feeling, which damages credit and prevents busidess. On the one hand the manufac turers are disposed to sell their goods even at re duced prices; while, on the other, the merchants are disinclined to increase their stocks, when the de mand is so limited. All the principal foreign and colonial markets are depressed, and at the same time the home trade is confined within very narro w limits. In Manchester, Leeds, Bradford, and Halifax, the transactions last week were very un important. The iron trade of Birmingham and the surrounding districts is also very depressed, and the recent advance in the terms of discount seems to have produced a more sensible effect f.'nan was at first imagined, owing to the - healthiuess of trade in all departments, Ile.,wever, there is less inconvenience than might have been encountered if the operations of the previous twelve months had been characterised by imprudent speculation. The absence of remittances from the United States has caused much embarrass ment, and as the orders have also ceased there is likely to be a curtailment of production and some distress among the operatives. The advices from New York, by the steamer Arabia, are extremely discouraging, for besides a long list of commercial failures, some of which are most important in their character, it is stated that the City Banks upon whose strength so much reliance had been placed had resolved to suspend specie payments. Monetary affairs were violently disturbed, paper could scarcely be negociated, and the exchange on England was variable at 98 to 102. Gold will consequently be dispatched from this side in large quantities, and further restrictions are ap prehended. r Indeed, some alteration at the Bank is hourly expected, because the drain of sovereigns is likely to be stimulated by these advices. There can be no question but that still greater inconvenience will yet be ex perienced, but as most persons are prepared, they will be enabled to pass through the ordeal without any general commercial disaster. Many persons take a moat gloomy view of our position of pros pects, but while it is advisable that the greatest prudence should be observed, there is really no ground for alarm. The amount of bills drawn by the Hon. East India Company, on Bengal, Madras, and Bombay during the fortn!ght, ending Saturday, was 8,2661. 9s. ld. The Canada has conveyed 241,1341. in specie to New York. The Teutonic has taken out 15,0001. The Funds have declined f per cent., the news from America having increased the fear lest the Bank should have to resort to fresh expedients in order to check the efflux of gold. Sales have, consequently, been pressed, and a very heavy tone prevails in all departments of the House. It is thought that monetary affairs may temporarily be come still more disturbed, and the suspense felt re garding the policy which the Bank will pursue tends to depress the quotations. The fall, however, is not important, because many incline to the opinion that the cessation of specie payments will diminish She shipments of gold from this side. Consols for transfer have been 884 4 and 881 4, while for the account they are marked 884 4. The present quotations are 881 1 and 884 1 respectively. The New Three per Cents. are 874 ; the Reduced, 87i 4 ; Exchequer Bills, 15s. to 10s. discount; the Bonds, 974 and India ditto, 35s discount. In the Foreign Market lowest prices are also cur rent, but business is dull. Turkish 6 per Cents. - have receded to 874 4, and the 4 per Cents. are 974. Spanish 3 per Cents. Deferred are 254 ; and IT! the Certificates, si. Peruvian have been dealt in at 75i, and Mexican at 19k.

The universal demand for men tal recreation, and its moral as well as physical effuot,, clearly prove that it should be encouraged instead of crushed, provided always that it is rationally and moderately directed. Various causes continued to render the writer's stay at Stanley Harbour disagreeable, and these circumstances may have tinged his impressions, but his picture is not inviting. His narrative is plain and straight forward. As regards his private wrongs, it is of course impossible to judge ; but from the manlier in which they are stated, the sympathies of the reader will generally be on his side in his arduous and responsible position. Regarded as a book of travels, it offers us but little definite information, as he SAW but little of the natives. The nautical and meteorological observations may very possibly be of service to those navigating that difficult and dangerous coast. The charts and coloured plates afford a good idea of the various localities. In his preface the author commends his work to the indul gence of the public from the circumstances under which it was written, and his own want of practice in literature. This work will no doubt effect the object intended, by calling public attention to those regions and our connection with them, and it is therefore not impossible that some lasting good may be effected by this narrative of "Life in the Southern Seas." English Style. By G. F. Graham, author of Eng lish ; or, the Art of Composition, &c. Long mans. This book may be of esential service to the stu dent; it contains a clear statement of the rules to be observed by those who would attain to a correct style in speaking and writing, also a summary of the errors to be avoided, but which are of such con stant recurrence in everyday life. It is chiefly in tended forithe higher classes in schools and colleges, and it has every appearance of being particularly qualified for such scholars. An historical sketch of the English language is appended which is in structive and interesting. The following remarks prove the progression and extension of the Saxon tongue, and confirm the poet's assertion It kindles realms so far apart, That while its praise we sing, These may be clad in autumn fruits And those in flowers of spring." " The extraordinary extension of his language should be to every Englishma n a su bj ec t of natural and honourable pride. No language, either in ancient or modern times, has ever been so widely spread as English. If we compare the extent of territory over which the ancient Latin was spoken with that in which English now predominates, we shall be struck with the difference ; and when we remem ber that neither India uor America was known to the Romans, we shall easily seehow much more widely diffused is the modern English than was the ancient Latin lan guage. In modern times, French, at one period, had a considerable preponderance in Europe, and it is still very generally studio 3, and even spoken, on the Continent. But on the whole the preponderance is now greatly on the side of English. It is spoken throughout England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, and the Isle of Man (though in all these places there are still some scanty remains;of Celtic dialects) —and in the United States, in Canada, Australia, and all the English colonies and dependencies, it is now the prevailing language." The Poems of Francis Hingeston. Edited by his Son. Longman. This is a volume of pleasing and unpretending poems by the late Mr. Hingeston, of Cornwall, whose verses were much admired by his friends and neighbours, and whose son has, therefore, thought it desirable they should be presented to the public in a more enduring form than in serials and scrap books. They deserve this care, as there is much graceful melody and pathos in them ; and if the author makes no ambitious flights, he spares his readers that straining after effect so common in modern poets. He says of himself in one of his letters, " You know that I have never followed the muse in her high flights; that I possess but a feeble wing and weak voice, and that all my glory has been to flutter for a moment upon a sunbeam, to sigh to the wild winds of my native hills, or to twine a simple garland of field flowers for some of those sweet children of Nature to whom afone my lowly songs have owed their inspiration." The poems have appeared in various local papers, and some of them have been introduced in Mr. Pol whole's "Biographical Sketches of Cornwall ;" but they have now an opportunity of being more widely circulated, and are tolerably secure from severe criticism, inasmuch as the "simple garland of field flowers" is now a wreath of i2nmortelles over the author's tomb.

A Ttvo Years' Cruise off Terra del Fuego, the Falkland Islands, cbc. By W. Parker Snow, late Commander of the mission yacht Allen Gardiner. • 2 vols. Longman. The author of thi s book is one who has visited many parts of the globe, and experienced many vi cissitudes, and his narrative must therefore be looked upon as the record of a traveller and naval commander of some standing, and consequently not liable to errors of ignorance or prejudice. Among other voyages he formed one in the expedition of the Prince Albert to the Arctio regions in search of Sir John Franklin, and his present undertaking led him to the vicinity of the opposite pole. Interest of various kinds appertains to the narrative before us—as a description of a place and people little known—as the record of an adventurous cruise, and as the account of the proceedings and successes of the mission recently established in those parts. Captain Snow appears to have been animated by a strong desire for the success and establishinent of the mission, and in consequence offered himself for the difficult and unprofitable office of captain tothe mission yacht. This mission was first established by the late Captain Allen Gardiner, who devoted him self to its furtherance. He went out himself with six companions to establish a mission station, and, dreadful to relate, they were all starved to death in Spaniard's Harbour, Terra del Fuego, in the autumn of 1851. This catastrophe Captain Snow asserts to have been mainly brought about by the want of common precautions, and, judgine, from the accounts he gi ves o f th e general proceedings, such rashness is not incredible. After the lamented death of Captain Gardiner and his companions, a society was established, subscriptions collected, and a schooner built and called the "Allen Gardiner," to be despatched to establish a station on one of the Falkland Island; and if possible civilise and instruct the neighbouring Patagonians. The plans adopted, and the want of method or management, are severely censured by the author, who appears, if his statements are authentic, to have been placed in a very trying position, without any definite instructions or friends, and finally, sud denly dismissed from the ship, without any official reason. Allowing for personal feeling in the nar rative, there appears to have been serious Mis management ; and, if another mission is con templated, it would be advisable to conduct it in a more business-like manner, with some more definite object in view. The plan of enticing native children away from their homes, to educate them, is open to many objections, and likely to effect little good. Captain Snow, in his appendix, has some sensible remarks on the sub ject of missions, and the necessary qualifications for a missionary. He appears to have a deep inte rest in the subject ; indeed he would scarcely have undertaken such an arduous task without it, but he is possessed of sound sense as well as of earnest piety, and adopts for his motto the following ex cellent maxim, " Faith in God's promise ought not to supersede, but to encourage our diligence in the use of proper means. We do not trust God, but tempt Him, if our expectations slacken our endea vours." His officers and crew were by no means of his opinion, and disobedience and disrespect of orders were frequent, though the commander seems to be authoritative enough when necessary. He was fre quently told that being a " mission ship" there was no danger, and similar reasoning, while it was not easy to manage men who plainly gave their opinion of their own superiority. During their stay at Terra del Fuego they visited the graves of their un fortunate predecessors ; and as Captain Snow stood on the fatal spot he resolved that no want of com mon prudence should induce him to tempt Provi dence, or provoke a similar fate : "The night was now nearly calm. A. few heavy gusts of wind occasionally rushed down the hills and made the vessel tighten her chains ; but in all else there was quiet, except in the booming noise made by the surf, as it dashed upon the shores where those poor men perished. As I leant over the bulwarks, and turned say face towards Earnest Cove, now a dark mass of trees and rock, with a white strip of sandy beach in front, I could in fancy see the dying missionaries, their skeleton forms and totteringsteps, vainlylprowling about I for shellfish, or aught that would serve them as food. Thera they were as plainly evident to my mind's eye as though I had known them in life, and been personally present with them. I was as if fascinated ! The whole story of their sufferings again came vividly before me ; and I returned to my bed. I there and then made a vow that, come what might, I never would, by any participation on my part, tacit or otherwise, allow VA* mission to starve others in a similar way. That I have kept my vow, and to my cost, is too painfully proved at the present moment, even while I am writing ; for every effort that malignity and detected wrong can devise to it.jure and oppress me is being resorted t) by those whom I refused to assist and countenance in proceed• nip that would almost certainly have brought about lanother case, not far unlike that of Captain Gardiner's. Bet whatever I may suffer, I rejoice twat I was firm in resisting such insane doings; and the vow I registered in Spaniard's Harbour, abreast of those starved men's graves, I have kept unbroken." The proceedings here alluded to were those of two of the party—the surgeon and catechist, who, after differing from the rest of the party, insisted on re maining on a desert island by themselves, causing Captain Snow great anxiety. The details of these affairs, however, are better learned from the author's pages. Many years ago, when similar efforts were being made to civilise the Fuegians, three of them were brought to England and instructed. They were then sent back to theiroative place, hoping they might improve their companions. This, as the writer remarks, was of little use, unless followed up, and a year after, when the place was visiteJ, it was found that one of them had robbed the other and left the place, while " Jemmy Button," as the most intelligent had been called, had nearly sub sided into original habits. He still retained a know ledge of English. One of the objects set before the author in his recent voyage was to discover this Jemmy Button, and to his surprise he did so, and found that he had not forgotten all his English, though twenty-three years had elapsed. Little else remained to distinguish him from the other savages, and there was little chance. Indeed, it seems almost a cruelty to have introduced this poor youth to civilised life, only to return him to his native wilds and companions. But though ex pressing himself with gratitude, and saying that everything in " Inglish conntree" was vary good," he strongly objected to any proposal for removing him or his children from their native spot. This was repeated from all the aborigines with whom the author conversed, and thereupon he thus ex presses his opinions : " I expressly put the question in every possible and attractive form, both as regarded the adults, and the younger branches, but a decided and positive negative was the reply from one and all. Yet the reverse has been stated ! I now publicly deny it. ,To go amongst them, with proper means, and lasing the results of prac tical experience, is another thing ; but to try and get them away by any plan or cajolery, that they do nut properly understand, especially after what I learned from Jemmy Button—against this I protest. It may be glossed over : it may appear is letters, and print very prettily ; but, I maintain, it is not right until the poor creatures can be made to comprehend and understand all about it. Facts speak for them: elves. Jemmy But ton had tasted the sweets, or, as they might be to him, the hitters of high c'vlization ; he at all _events knew what it was, and all about going away ; yet, what was his answer, when I and th e C atec hi st asked him if he, or any of his boys, would accompany us only a little way ? Why, a poaitiye negative ; and, therefore, if I were to hear of ten or of fifty Fusgian boys as being at the mission station in Falklands, I would never believe, until I knew that the Fuegians had learned our lan• guage, that those poor lads had gone there as only a religious society ought to let them go, namely, with a full and perfect knowledge of what it was for. Evil must not be donethat good may perchance, and only perchance, come. The English colonies of the west were helped into existence by labourers imported from Africa, by men who spoke of good things to come ; and the colony of Koppel Island is also as openly avowed to be aided by imported natives, who, under the plea of being taught the useful arts of civilization, &c., will be made to serve in looking after the cattle, and doing other labour. Let the useful art 4, however, be taught them in their own homes; not where a doubt of its - straightforwardness can be raised. Let them see that we really have their good at heart by going to their homesteads (and wretched though they be, they are homesteads with evidently strong family affections around them), rather than by our dragging them away, and thus appearingly to want only to make them slaves. For what else can they consider it, if they find them selves doing strange work for us in our land, while they are not able to get back to their homes at their own will. Savages they may be ; degraded, miserable, wretched beings ! But they have hearts as well as we ; and their way of thinking may not be the same as ours on the question. Let us then go to them ; not inveigle them to us." The writer himself, supported by other authority, asserts that one sailing vessel is not safe on such a mission in these parts, and advises that should a vessel be sent among the natives alone, it should be a steam vessel, as a sailing vessel is naturally dependent on the wind, and liable to be boarded by native canoes. No accident, however, belel any of the ship's company, owing, probably, to the captain's judicious arrangements. The details of life at Stanley, in the Falkland Islands, are not very attractive ; the evils inseparable from a limited society and circle of interests are very prevalent. Our author expresses himself strongly on this point, and maintains that the absence of all means of rational amusement is a fruitful source of evil. Human nature imperatively requires some source of excitement and interest, and in most cases con trives to obtain it, though under very opposite forms. Those who are most severe in its censure, will seek it themselves, though perhaps uncon sciously, in their devotion to their business, or, in more strictly disposed persons, in the excitement The Private Life of an Eastern King. By W. Knighton, author of " Forest Life iu Ceylon." NOW Edition. Routledge. A. new and cheap edition of this work, which ap peared some two years ago, has now been Issued, and from the present state of Eastern affairs, will no doubt have a large circulation. It is not in appropriate to the time, as it is compiled from the experiences of a member of the household of the late King of Oude, Nussir-u-deen. The facts contained in it were related to Mr. Knighton, during an acci dental acquaintance, and as he was struck with their novelty he proposed to the " member of the household" that a book should be made of them. He was quite willing, but objected that his name should be put to them, and they have consequently appeared under the authority of their accomplished editor. The great desire now prevalent to know something of the interior of that Eastern life of which we have unfortunately been so ignorant, will moat 'probably ensure an extended circle of readers to this work in its present form. Russell's History of Modern Europe Epitomised. Routledge. This is an extremely useful summary of general European history, well suited to convey a general knowledge of the subject, or to serve as a work of reference. It is the more unimportant parts that have been abridged, while the great events of mo dern times are described at length, thus not de priving the work of the interest seldom found in abbreviations or epitomes. The volume is large, and contains a large amount of reading, which will repay the industrious student by affording him a gener4l knowledge of European history from the rise of the modern kingdoms to the Peace of Paris. A compendious index enables the reader to refer readily to any page or incident. Falter Colyton. By Horace Smith. Father Justace. By Mrs. Trollope. Knight and Sun, Clorkenwell-close. Reprints of these two well-known works have just been published by Messrs. Knight, each cotn pieta in one handsome volume. They are each the story of a particular class or epoch, the first being au historical tale of 1688, and the Second a tale of the Jesuits. The former topic is certainly the most suitable, as controversial novels are seldom pro ductive of much benefit. However, they both display the various abilities of their authors ; and are handsomely bound in cloth and well printed. The Comprehensive _History of England. Parts 3 and 4. Blackie and Son, Edinburgh , and London. This is a work that is very extended in its character, as its name implies, and as far as can be judged at this early period, it seems to merit encomium and encouragement. It professes to be civil, religious, intellectual, military, and social, and, commencing with the Conquest, will come down to the present day. It is illustrated by nume rous woodcut; and written in a clear and simple style, and from its fullness and comprehensive na ture it is far more interesting, as well as likely to make an impression on the reader's memory, than a more succinct or abbreviated history. It comes down, at the end of the fourth part, to the reign of John, after recounting the romantic exploits of Cceur de Lion i❑ an interesting manner. We trust it will proceed in the same style. Stones of the Valley. By the Rev. W. S. Symonds, F.G.S., Author of " Old Stones." Bentley. An instructive little book on geology, by one qualified to give an introduction to this interesting science. It relates chiefly to his own neighbour hood of Gloucestershire, and describes the discove ries made there. It is not very elaborate in its terms or definitions, and will not be formidable to those who know nothing of the science, wkile it may possibly suggest some new ideas to those fami liar with it. We trust it will meet the encourage ment that every work that renders science simple and popular merits. The Old Bachelor in the Scottish Village. By Thomas Aird. Blackwood. This is a second edition of this little work, re vised and enlarged, forming a very pleasant volume of country gossip, of sketches of Scottish -village life and manners, not unmixed with kindly satire i 2 n e r g v collection to pa aolfeisu:o on his neighbours, and frequently en li vened by a little domestic story or lore ad ven t ure. It in a a t anec dote very a ag n r d ee re a reflection, t and ioi , e and erwt hour very pleasantly. The Westminster Review, John Chaman. A very sensibl e article ou the folly an p d extra vagance of present fashions opens this number of the Westminster. It is called " Female Dress in 1857," and very severely, though does it attack and censure the general man j ia ustl in y, this re spect. It may seem a trifling subject, unworthy of serious reproof, but when it is considered what m isery wilful an d unprincipled extravagartoe 'in this respect may cause to a whole family, And tp.. e he a circle of unpa id tradesmen, it will assume .dln. lent aspect. It conc l u d es b y quoting entire t deur American satire just published, called THE WATERLOO-BRIDGE MURDER, The police are still actively engaged in searching for anything that may throw a light upon this mysterious affair. It has just been ascertained that about four weeks ago a man of gentlemanly appearance, about 5 feet 7 inches in height, and with dark hair and whiskers, called at the Prince of Wales, in Upper Kennington-lane, Lambeth, and asked for a bed. On finding that he could not have one, he asked and received permission to leave his bag an d coa t, w hi c h th e l an dl ady states corresponded watchedexactly him, with saw him proceed in th e di rect i on of those now exhibit e d at the Bow -street station, H e th en went away, an d the landlady, who Vaux hall in company with a female resembling the one de scribed by the toll-kbeper at Waterloo-bridge. It has been further ascertained that the man then called at the George and Dragon, Vauxhall, asked for a bed, and on being informed that he could not have one, went away with the woman AM before. He then returned to the Prince of Wales and received his bag and coat, leaving sixpence in payment. From the description given of the Woman at these houses the police have hopes of ap. prehending ker before very long. The inquest will be resumed this afternoon, when Professor Taylor's report, which has been in the hands of the authorities fur some days past, will be made public. The result of his examination is looked forward to with great interest ; more especially as certain state. ments and opinions, said to be those of the professor's, relative to kiA examination of the remains, have been circulated without any foundation or authority on his part. A few hours will now disclose circumstances in connection with this mysterious affair of a rather, it is believed, unexpected character. We intend, in our late edition, to give the document above referred to in extenso, as well as the fresh evidence the police are said to be prepared to lay before the jury. ALDERMAN COPELAND AND THE INDIAN MAIL. On Saturday W. Little, the driver of one of her Ma. jesty's mail vans, was summoned before Alderman Copeland, at the City Police Committee, charged with causing an obstruction on London-bridge. Radmore, 422, said—On the 15th of October, about four o'clock in the afternoon, I was regulating the traffic on London-bridge, when I saw the defendant driving a mail van, with two horses, over London-bridge. R e broke the rank. He stopped the trotting traffic from the City entirely, and it was some time before we could get the bridge clear again for the traffic to resume. m The Inspector of Mails said the men in charge of the bad instructions from the Post-office authorities on all occasions to stop for nothing, but make all the bests they could, and on the pm esent occasion they had the Indian mail, which was of the utmost importance. Tile solicitor to the Post-office said the defendant had with him the Indian snail, and his instructions were to be as exrieditious as possible. He (the solicitor) was in structed that the guard told the officers they had the Indian mail, when one of them replied that he did not care a-- for the Indian mail He believed that the man who said it was the only person in this country that did not care about it at tile present time. Alderman Copeland said it was very natural that every body should be anxious about the Indian mail at the present time, havi ng f r i ends or relat i ves i n th a t country; but at the same t i me he could not allow t h e traffic of London-b r id ge to be impeded even by the Indian mail. The defend an t h a d acted wrongly, a nd he should there fore fin e hi m s s. and costs. The fine was at once paid.

" The Four Empires" is a polttical article on the much-vexed " Eastern Question," and the consequences of the Russian war. Two papers on " Eschylus" and " Mom sea's" Roman history offer attractions to the studious, while articles on "Representative Go vernment," and " The Progress of English Juris prudence" are suited to the more practical reader. BOROUGJJ OF BODMIA.-POLITICAL DEMONSTRITION. On Thursday the 17th instant, the Reformers of Bothnia assembled and proceeded (according to announcement,) to Carminow Cross, about a mile to the east of the town, to meet their worthy repre sentative, Mr. Wyld, w h om th ey rece i ve d with the most enthusiastic welcome. After the usual salu tation, and a few introductory remarks from Mr. Wyld on the occasion of the meeting, a friend de sired him to leave the carriage in which himself, Mrs. Wyld, and Miss Wyld, had come from Lis keard, that he might be brought into the town in a coach drawn by twenty volunteer tradesmen of the borough ; but he declined, and replied as follows : My dear fellow-men—your kind offer reminds me of the barbarous ages, when nobles held serfs or slaves who vied with each other in doing their master's bidding, but these barbarous customs are now passed away before the light of Christianity, and every man in these realms stands on the same footing ; and though, perhaps, Providence may have kindly favoured me with property beyond a great many of you, I am nothing more than a man, and shall shortly stand with you before the great tribunal of Him who knoweth the hearts of all men. He was about to add another sentiment, but the cheers and enthusiasm of the townsmen were so great that he was unable to proceed, and he became so overwhelmed with emotion that tears gashed from his eyes, and he sat down amid the dinning shouts of the multitude. Mr. William Serjeant then rose from his carriage, and addressing Mrs. Wyld and Miss Wyld, stated that they (the in habitants) had come to welcome them to the borough and to their hearths, and he hoped they would that day receive such hearty hospitality from the inhabitants of the parliamentary borough of Bodmin, as would engrave the name of Bodmin for ever on their memory. He thee addressed the gentlemen present, and shortly after the procession proceeded towards the town, preceded by bands of music, banners, flags, &o. After passing through a considerable part of the town, Mr. Wyld re turned to his private lodgings, Mayoralty House, until half-past three, when he visited some other places in the town, .and entering the Market House (which was beautifully decorated with flowers, evergreens, Sic.,) sat down to tea with Mrs. I .Vyld, Miss Wy l e!, and about four thou sand inhabitants of the borough and neighbour hood, including ladies. Visitors coniLquing to ob tain admission to the tea until near seven 9'clock, it was thought advisable to hold the public neeet ing on the Mount Folly, and accordingly Mr. Wyld, after making an apology for the absence of his worthy colleague (the Hon. Capt. Vivian), ad dressed the audience at considerable length on the disturbances in India and China, the Divorce Bill, the Reform Bill, Vote by Ballot, and other politi cal matters which have come before the House of Commons during the last session of Parliament. At the close of his address the front of the Market House was illuminated with gas burners arranged in the form of the letters which compose the words " Welcome Vivian and Wyld." The musicians then promenaded the town, in which everything testified joy and gladness, and it was said the only thing absent from the town was a "sad counten ance." The display of fireworks, under the super intendence of Professor Lawrence, then called the attention of the people, and gave general satisfac tion, the closing motto being " Success to Both min:" During the continuance of the last motto, the bands played the national anthem, " God save the Queen," which added greatly to the effect of the scene and solemnity of the occasion. The crowd, which was computed to be upwards of ten thou sand persons, then dispersed, and in less than two hours the town was perfectly tranquil. No angry or unpleasant feeling was manifested throughout the day, and the chief magistrate has been heard to remark that such an occasion he could never before remember, he and his fellow magistrates and the constables throughout the borough having had no thing to do,—Oa the following day the poor from the Union Workhouse were regaled with tag and cake in the Market-house, and from the expressions of thankfulness manifested by many who had been oppressed with a load of misfortune, it was evident they were happy, and seemed to glow with emotion at the kind attention paid to them.--West Briton. THE 1 , 7E1V MISSION TO CENTRAL AMEBIC A. SIR W. GORE OUSELEY. In our last we intimated that her Majesty's Government were about to send a special Minister to Washington, with a view to an understanding with Mr. Buchanan and his Cabinet as to a basis of policy to be pursued by the United Slates and Great Britain towards Honduras, Nicaragua, Guatemala, &c., so as finally to dispose of those irritating and profitless diplomatic entanglements known as the Central American Question. We had reason, we added, to believe that the individual selected was one who would be found peculiarly suited to the office, both from his professional ante cedents, his knowledge of the Spanish-American character, and his personal acceptability to the President of the United States. It will be seen that on Friday last, at Windsor, audience was given by the Queen to SirW. Gore Ouseley, K. C. 8., who received his credentials as special Minister to Central America. This nomination is most credi table to her Majesty's Government, and is some what of an innovation on the rule that has hither obtained in Fisch selections. Not only is Sir William not of the political following of those now in power, but he had been recalled from his mis-ion in the River Plate by Lord Pal merston, when Foreign Secretary, having been sent thither by Lord Aberdeen, as also to the Court of Brazil ; but such was the sense entertained of his services alike to the commercial and political inte rests of England in South America, where events in regard to Rosas, the opening of the P arana an d its affluents to the trade of the world, &c., entirely justified the course he had recommended years be fore, that one of the earliest acts of the Derby Ad ministration was to beitow upon him the Order of the Bath. It will be recollected, moreover, that Lord Malmesbury was particularly proud of the mission to Paraguay in 1851 by the late Sir C. Hothaan (being, in fact, only a resumption of the work Sir William Ouseley had employed that la mented officer upon in 1845), and that Lord Cla rendon, on succeeding to the foreign seals, was at first disposed to make light of what his predecessor attached so much importance to in such respect. ' Both Lords Palmerston and Clarendon, therefore, have shown themselves superior to personal consi deration in choosing Sir W. Ouseley for the present undertaking, his fitness for which has alone weighed with them. Sprung of a family remarkable for its eminence in the diplomatic service, it is now some 30 years since he entered the profession as attache to Sir R. A.dair's mission, at Washington,where he married a daughter of Mr. Van Ness, then late governor of the State of Vermont, and previously United States Envoy Fxtraordinary at the Court of Madrid. Until his return from South America, as already stated, Sir William was constantly em ployed, always with success, as we trust will be the case on this occasion ; for there could hardly be a greater boon the cause of civilisa tion than removal of the only existing impedi ment to complete cordiality between two na tions having so many motives for ca-opera tion and so few for dissent as Great Britain and the United States.
