Exchange is brisk at 'Ad. at ten months' date. Com mercid matters generally are dull. CHINA. CANTON, DEC. 26, 1816. Affairs, in a commercial point of view, are gloomy. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. From The Sun of last Night. The Cotton Market was firmer at Liverpool yesterday, the sales being 5,000 bales. Shares were rather flat again. As far as we. can learn, the impression produced at Liver pool by the financial expose was tolerably favourablo. The Overland Mail has arrived with letters from the In dian Presidencies and China. The political advices are of a favourable tenour, and there was some activity in the export market, while money was easier. In British manufactures the transactions were not extensive. There has been an arrival from the Cape of Good Hope also, with intelligence to the 19th of December, inclusive, from the frontier. The Kafir war was fast drawing to a close, and Sandilla and limbala, two influential chiefs, had submitted A Quebec, contemporary, adverting to the Toronto mer chants, remarks that—" The annual report of the Toronto Board of Trade expresses the views of most of the persons engaged in trade in Upper Canada. We still think they , ascribe too much influence to the navigation-laws in pro ducing high freights by the River St. Lawrence. The difference of the rate at New York, Montreal, and Quebec, at the close of the last season of navigation, has been considerable. Like every other commodity, freights are affected by the demand and the quantity in the marker. The difference in favour of New York " generally" is to be ascribed to these circumstances, and the costs and risks of river navigation for 400 or 500 miles, and not, as asserted, to a tax on the produce of Canada by the British Parliament in favour of British shipping. If the Upper Canada merchants find it more advantageous to deal with New York, we can hardly expect that they will give a preference to the St. Lawrence ; neither do we blame the people of the United States for their efforts to bring the trade their own way. They have done a great deal by their canals and railways to the Great Lakes, and by their drawback laws. They have canals and railways front Lake Erie to the Ohio, from Buffalo, and Rochester, and Oswego to the Hudson, and they now are about making a railway from Ogdensburgh, at the foot of the ship navigation of Lake Ontario, to Boston. They still contemplate the enlargement of the Erie Canal, and forming a railroad to Detroit to compete with the Canada Great Western Rail way; the effect of all which will be to cut off the trade from the St. Lawrence, unless it is counteracted by facilitating the communications along the lakes, and the navigation of the St. Lawrence, to its outlet. One of these essential faci lities is the diminution of charges and burthens on the trade of every•description ; and there is every reason to belies e that efforts equal to those of our neighbours would be suc cessful, seeing the natural advantages afforded by the St. Lawrence." The Funds opened to-day at an advance to 90% and 91, but have since receded to 90% % for Consols. Much interest is felt about the new loan, to be arranged to-morrow. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have been 93%, but are now 923 to 93. Bank Stock is worth 203 4. Exchequer Bills have been 9s. to 13s. premium.

OVERLAND MAIL FROM CALCUTTA. (From the Herald.) We have just received, by extraordinary express, our files of papers from Calcutta, of the 7th of January; Bombay, 15th February; and China, 26th December. We subjoin extracts:— ( From the nonzbay Times of Jan. 15.) SUMMARY.--One of those sudden alternations from peace to war and war to peace—front a period of excitement to one of apathy and repose, so characteri.tic of oriental history-- has once more thrown on our hands a home dispatch almost wholly devoid of interest. The treaty with the Seikhs, given In our last, was duly ratified betwixt Dhuleep Singh and the Governor-General on Christmas-day; and the two august Per sonages just named were again to meet at Lahore on New Year's-day, Four Seikh corps are being raised, to form, with other troops, a frontier brigade at Peshawur, under command of Captain Lawrence, of the 11th cavalry. Orders have been issued for the reduction of the Sinde field force by about seven thousand men, these to consist of two European and five native infantry regiments, one of cavalry, and five hatteriOi of sirtiilery. These are chiefly withdrawn from Kurrachee. The frontier force has been strengthened, and there will remain behind from fourteen to seventeen thousand men, regular and irregular to do duty, The excess of ex penditure over revenue, which in 1846 is supposed to have amounted to nearly two millions, will probably be reduced to what, according to the Parliamentary returns, it appears to have been in 1844-0--,considerahly upwards of a mil lion. gir C. Napier has been raised to the rank of Lieu tenant-General, and attached to the staff of India. No Commanler.in-Chief having been appointed for ilomhaY, Sir T. M'Mahon, who bad taken out his passage by the steamer which loavea a fortnight hence, has been prevailed on to remain for the present in command. Rumour affirms that the Court of Directors and Horse Guards are at issue on the subject.—From Caubul we learn that Akbar Khan. having in vain endeavoured to persuade his father, Dost Ma homed, from having anything to say to the vakeel deputed to his court by the Governor-General, had, through sheet wantonness, proceeded to and plundered a village near Charekar. Our vakeel was ordered to request of the old Ameer to use his best endeavours to have liberated and sent to India all those of the late Caubul army who might be in captivity either in his own elontinions or those of surrounding countries. The Nawaub Ameer, Mahomed Khan, the instigator of the late disturbance in the province of Bhopal, together with two sons engaged with him in the insurrectionary movement, have been ordered to be imprisoned in the strong hill fortress of Asseergbur. The affairs of the Nizam's dominions are again relapsing into their former deplorable condition, and will continue to do so unless our Resident is authorised to interfere more in them than heretofore. Fresh disturbances have broken out among the Khonds of Goom soor, consequent on the measures pursued by our agent for the suppression of the barbarous sacrifices of human beings periodically performed by them. The town of Madras has lately been visited by cholera, but at the latest dates it was on the decline. The country, with this exception, is healthy throughout, and the weather cool and agreeable. The Commander-in. Chief of India was present at the ceremony of the ratification of the new Lahore treaty at Bhairoowall on the 25th of December. It has not appeared whether his Lordship accompanies the Governor General to Lahore, or returns to the provinces. The battle of Ferozeshah was celebrated with spirit in his camp on the 22d. The Hon. Mr. Thomason, Lieutenant-Governor of the North- Western Provinces, quitted Neemuch for Indore on the 28th ult. The Marquis of Tweeddale returns to Madras on the 18th instant. Mr. George Russell Clerk, our new Go vernor, is expected at Bombay about the 24th. He in tended to proceed from Calcutta to Ceylon by the steamer Ilindostan ; and the Hon. Company's steam-frigate .Auck land has been dispatched thither to bring him up. The lion. Mr. Reid and family quit Parell to make way for him on the 20th. A ball in their honour is at present in contem plation, The whole of her Majesty's 17th, and part of her Majesty's 86th, have returned to Bombay from Sinde; the former shortly leaves for England. DEATHS IN THE ARMY. Casualties by death in the armies of India reported since the departure of the mail of 2d January:— 11. M. Troops—Major G.

BOMBAY, JAN. 15, 1847.—The market for imports has been unusually languiu during the past fortnight. No change in prices can be quoted, tut neither have there been transac tions to any extent. There is still no appearance of Mar warrie purchasers in the market. Metals—ln these no sales whatever are reported to us ex cept one of Raised Bottoms at rs. 60i per cwt. Quotations otherwise are stationary. _ _ _ Cotton Manufactures--Few sales, as we have just remarked, have been effected of Cotton goods since the departure of the last mail. The state of the Manchester Market, as reported by the last adviees, is such as to make holders very reluctant to realise at the prices now current here; and while purchasers are offering d a ily lower and lower, the continued advices of advance in the English markets dispose sellers to look for a result quite the reverse —an anticipation which is confirmed by a knowledge of the check given to production in the manufacturing districts, by the " short time" movement (which many are of opinion would become general during the wi nter months), thus s trengthening the chances of a very material enhancement of the cost of next season's imports ; and warranting the expec tations that a little firmness on this side would even now have a beneficial effect on prices. Cotton Yarns.—ln these the following sales are reported : —No. 20, 4,50011). at 6% annas per lb. No. 30, 4,5001 b. at 714 ditto. No. 40, 2,0001 b. at 8 ditto. No. 50, 90011). at 9 1 / ditto. Wootaxuas.—No sales reported, nor is there any alteration in the quotation of prices. 13rEn.-50 hhds of " Allsop" have been sold at 65 rs. per hhd. There is a good inquiry for this brand, and the stock of it in importers' hands is exhausted. Nothing but 0 Bass" remains. Quotations : Allsopp Rs. 65 ; Bass Rs. 50. We have also heard of a sale of 25 hhds. of liodi,, , son's Pale Ale, at Rs. 60 rr Spirits—We are informed of a sale of 18 hhds. of Brandy at Rs. 3i per gallon. Quotations otherwise are for the most part nominal. Marine Stores--No sales, and quotations stationary. Saffron—The stock in hand of this article appears to be of inferior quality, of which a sale of 1301 b. at rs. 7 per lb. has been reported to us. Cochineal—ls quoted at rs. 4U per lb., being an advance on last quotation of 4 annas ; no sales reported. EASTERN PRODUCE. Cotton—This market has been in a very excited state since the receipt of the last accounts from England, but the great rise in freight has alone checked the upward ten dency of prices, The cotton now in the market is, however, all inferior, notwithstanding which purchases have been made at an advance of fully five per cent. on previous rates, or, taking the quality of what remains into account, of probably ten per cent. or more. The rise in freight of itself is equal to an increase of the cost of the article of nearly id. per lb. There is now very little left for sale of last season's vrt;p, and the earliest arrival of the new cannot be looked for before the end of next month. Con tracts for it—Oomrawuttee at 85 rs, per candy, and Broach at 93 rs. —are being negotiated. Quotations, therefore, stand thus:— Broach and Jumbooseer ...... 86 rupees. Surat D o h o 1 r l e a r y uttee ...... ......... 7 79 " om Bargee 74 „ Compta have had no sales reported. Opium—This article has declined in price owing to the unfavourable accounts from China ; purchases have been made at 1,115 to 1,135 rs., but buyers now refuse to give more than 1,100 rs., which may be considered the market value of the day. Much difficulty is experienced in testing the genuineness of the article now often brought into the market here. Wool—The rise in freights appears to have checked pur chases in this article, and stock is accumulating, with a alight tendency to decline in prices. Freights—These to Great Britain have risen greatly since last mail left; first to 5/. per ton, then to 5/. 55., at which they may now be quoted. Quotations to China remain at 10 to 12 rs. per candy nominal. MONEY-MARKET. This remains easy, but the distrust prevailing in connexion with the late opium speculations has not yet entirely sub sided. Subscriptions to the Government Five per Cent.

MANCHESTER, TUESDAY, FEB. 23.—The slight indi cations of improvement in the market, to which we re .ferred on Wednesday last, 'have become rather more m.enifest and decided during the last few days ; and a better feeling has prevailed upon the exchange to than for several weeks past. In prices. no perceptible change for the .better ; bu ries, both for goods and yarn, have.bee sive ; and in cases where spinners and have been willing to accept the low rates eu ast week, they have little difficulty in makiug sales.

HALIFAX, SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 20.—We could not observe any change for the better in the piece ball to day, nor does there seem to be any prospect of a speedy improvement. The manufacturers, however continue to runtheir machinery full time, which, as heavy stocks are accumulating, they will not be able to do should the present depression remain unabated much longer. With reap. ct to yarn, for low numbers the demand is unusually restricted; but for some qualities, for shipping, the detrand has rather improved; prices remain without alteration. The sales of long wool continue very limited; and ,the turn of the market is rather in favour - of the buyer, Short wools are somewhat more active, and are a little easier to buy. LEEDS, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 23.—The business done - at our cloth-halls to-day, has been equally trifling with that of last week. We bear, however,"that the manufacturers are rather better employed to order, and that a brisker demand is-anticipated next month in various descriptions of woollens for the United States markets.—Manchester Guardian. PUBLIC INCOME AND, EXPENDI- TUBE. An account of the total amount of the public revenue received into and expended from the Exchequer, and the balances remaining at the close of each year from 1836 to 18-16 inclusive, was ordered by the House of Commons to be printed on the 19th instant. it. appears that in 1836 there was a surplus of income amounting to 2,130,0921., after which year, up to 1843, when Sir I. Peel's financial reforms had begun to take effe t, there was a regular annual deficiency- of income, amounting alto gether to the sum of 10,188,6571. Since 1843 there has been an equally regular surplus of inccnne, which at present amounts in the gross to the sum of 11,453,3601. ; so that the former deficiency is now completely covered, and a balance left in favour ut the Exchequer of 1,274,7031. The total amount of income received into the Exchequer during the past year, 1846, was 53,790,1351., and the total expenditure therefrom, 50,913,830/., including 28,077,987/. for the annual charge on the funded and unfunded debt; 2,736.8071. for other charges on the Consolidated Fund; 16,864,697/. for the army, navy, and ordnance services; and 3,264,839/. for miscellaneous services, leaving a , surplus of income amounting to 2,846,308/. In 1845 the excess of in come was 3,817,64. d., the receipts baying amounted to 53,060,354/., and the expenditure to 49,242,7121. The gross total estimated amount of the taxes repealed or reduced during the above-mentioned decennial period is 10,042,4141.; the principal items being pepper, sugar, paper, spirits, licenses, newspaper stamps, postage, coffee, timber, export duties, Custom s duties, Irish spirits, marine in surances, cotton wool, coals (export duty), glass, auctions, corn, and provisions, &c. The total amount of the new taxes concurrently imposed, is 7,916,993/., the principal items being the income tax, which alone contributes 5,100,0001.. and the increase of 5 per cent. on the Customs and Excise proposed in 1840 by Mr. Baring. The capital of the funded and unfunded debt now amounts nn l e ' r h e e si b in al:i p ic a e rt in ien t particulars s E x :. to 782,918,984/. viz., 764,608,28-11. for the funded, and b h i e c ci b u Exchequer have et thebeen een closeg lgleaned e o d f fr t o h m e year this 18,310,700/.. for the unfunded, debt. (1846) amounted to the sum of 9,131,282/. Such are the return. MONEY MARKET.—The premium on gold at Paris is 10 per mille, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 10 1 4 d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 2a40 ; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25.27,1, it follows that gold is 0.49 per cent. dearer in Paris than in London. By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 431 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 10%d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13 8 ; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London short being 13.6, it follows that gold is 0.93 per cent. dearer in Hamburgh than in London. The course of exchange at New York on London is 106 : t- per cent., and the par of exchange between England and Atnerida being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is 3.33 per cent. against Eng land. But the quoted exchange at New York being for bills at .60 days' sight, tke interea. must be deducted from the above difforence. REDDEN AND AFFECTING DEATII.—The sudden 'and effeeting,desith of Mr. Charles Thornton Cunniagham,,- Lieutenant-Governor of St. Christopher's end of the Lee-. ward Islands, is announced in the West Indian papery which have just arrived. It appears that this gentleman had driven in from the country to Basseterre, the seat of Govern ment, in apparently vigorous health and cheerful spirits, to open the newly-elected Houses of Legislature. After trans acting. some business with his private secretary, and dispatching a note to invite some officers in a French ship of war just come into port to luncheon at Government house, he rode down to the mail-office, to meet his let ters, and a box containing a picture of a much-beloved sister, recently deceased in England. He had stated to more than one person, that his earnest desire to possess the picture was not unmixed with fear as to the effect the sight of it might produce upon him. So strongly had this apprehension fastened itself on his mind, that, on the arrival of the box at the Government- house, he sent a servant in quest of a friend who might be with him when the box was opened. Having failed in find ing him, he proceeded to open the box His butler, who was present, reports that he looked at the countenance earnestly, turned pale, whispered a few words to himself, walked hastily up to his own room, was heard almost instantly to fall as he entered it, and his servants following upstairs found him stretched on the floor a corpse. The St. Christo pher's Gazette, as well as many other public and private communications, bear the strongest testimony to the ability, vigour, and high moral character of this gentleman, and to the tenderness and munificence with which at all times, and cspeciplly under a recent heavy visitation of Island fever, he had ministered to the wants and sorrows of the negro popula tion. The Houses of Assembly met immediately after his death, and passed an unanimous vote for a funeral at the public expense, to testify, as they expressed it, at once their respect for his official rank and the high esteem in which he was held by all classes of the community. On the nextday he was followed to the grave by all the public authorities, the members of the two Houses, the most distinguished per sons in the colony, and by thousands of grateful and mourn ing Legroes, to whose welfare he had largely contributed. Mr. Cunningham assumed the Government of St. Kitt's in May, 1839, and fell a victim, as his physician states, partly "to the exhausting influence of tropical climates on the nervous powers," and partly to the intensity of brotherly affection, in the 36th year of his age. FUNERAL OF TEE DOWAGER COUNTESS OF SHREWSBURY. —On Tuesday forenoon the remains of the Dowager Countess of Shrewsbury were interred with all the solemn ceremonials of the Roman Catholic ritual. The offices, dirge, and missa solemnis were chaunted in the chapel, at St. John's Woed, several of the most distinguished mem bers of the Roman Catholic nobility being among the prin cipal mourners. In accordance with the usual customs of the religion, the coffin, ccncealed by the pall, thb coronet, the plumes and funeral trappings, remained near the sanctuary throughout the whole of the ceremonies. The deceased Countess is generally and deeply regretted, both by reason of her accomplishments and her disposition. Her reunions at her London residence will not very speedily be forgotten. SOCIETY or ARTS —An interesting paper by M. Claudet, on photography, was read at the meeting of this society on Wednesday evening. It commenced by observing that during the past two or three years the chemical part of the process had made but little progress, no substance having yet been found more sensitive to the light than iodine, bromine, and chlorine. The optical arrangement was then alluded to. Until the present time object glasses of sh rt focal length have been employed with a view of operating more rapidly, but there is an objection to this. The shorter the focal length the more the image is curved, and the less it will coincide with the plane surface of the plate upon which it is represented. Again, the angle formed by the rays which converge towards the object glass is more open as the focal length diminishes. It follows that objects situated upon different planes in relation to the object gilts will be reflected of a size proportionate to the width of angle under which they are represented. Objectai gla sses, therefore, of the greatest possible focal leng t h tie used.

The strong lights operate first; then te the half tints; and lastly, the shadows. By employing screens, covered with black velvet, the strong horizontal light is diminished, giving the reflected light time to operate on the parts in shadow. By this means greater relief and. roundness of effect is obtained. M.

GREECE.— We find the following in a letter from Ancona, of the Bth, published by the Augsburgh Gazette:— " The last courier from Greece brought letters which state that a mi sun d erstanding had occurred between M. Mussurus, Ambassador of the Ottoman Porte, and M. Coletti, President of the Council. It is thought that M. Mussurus will be re placed by another ambassador. It appears that the King had himself undertaken to be the guarantee of his Aide-de camp, Colonel Karatassos, whose passport for Constantinople M. Mussurus had refused to sign. At a Court ball, which took place shortly afterwards, the King approiched M. M9s. surus, and said :—` Is it thus you treat the guarantee of a King?" and immediately withdrew, without giving M. Mus surus time to answer. Some days after, M. Mussurus called upon M. Coletti for an explanation of the King's words, but only received an evasive reply. M. Coletti, however, ad dressed a note to the Greek te omoAttmbasansardoorrteatoCfownhsr hadtin ooplce: directing him to inform the curred. J. • J.
