Yesterday the Cotton Market was irregular, with sales of €OO bales, generally at lower rates; any considerable sales could only be effected at a reduction, but holders do not seem dis- posed to make a concession, and it is difficult to give quota. tions. To day the market was dull, and prices were unchanged. F our again improved, with sales of 7,000 barrels, ordhary to choice State at 84,50 to 84.681, common to good Southern at 84.64 84 75, and mixed to fancy Western at 84.623 to -84 811.

By express from Marseilles despatches from India in anticipation of the Overland Mail, which left Bombay on the 3 , 1 of January , have b een received. The Times correspondent writes.—" The present cold season promises to find us occupation for our armies all along the line of the north-west, and most probably in Burmah also, if we may judge from present appearances. From Peshawur along to Dhera Ismael Khan, the tribes are either in arms or preparing to take them up against, us, and a general rising seems to be meditated. The Khyrpore Ameer, too., seems inclined to rush on his fate. Altogether the prospect of war being close at hand is pretty certain, and it is the universal belief that stirring events will occur during the-ensuing three months. On the frontier a couple of skirmishes have already taken place." From the Hazareh country we hear of the butchery of two British officers—Messrs. Clime and Tapp—by a b3dy of Momunds. near a place called Moezuffergurh. Troops of Upper Scinde were going to Keypoor, and a reserve was forming at Hyderabad. A fond deal of sickness prevailed at Hyderabad, prin cipally fever. The wing of her Majesty's 64th Regiment had during their stay there lost seventeen men, seven women, and twentv-six children. The river had fallen unusually low, which had been the cause of the great pre valence of fever. The troops at Kurrachee were healthy, while at Sukkur there was , much sickness.

Prussia is engaged in making preparations for any events of a warlike character that may result from the proceed ings of the French President. A Republican wag chalked up the other night, in place of the erased inscription, " Liberty, Fraternity, aad Equality," " Infantry, Cavalry, and Artillery."

Accounts from Spain to the 25th instant state that the government has ordered a sum of 6.000 reals to be invested calf of every child of poor parents born on the same Infanta.

MEETING OF MAGISTRATES OF THE DISTURBEIYCOUN TIES.—Tne lords lieutenant of the counties of Louth,Ar mall, and Monaghan have issued circulars to the rnagis trates of their respective counties to meet at Cast leblaney, " for the purpose of considering the propriety ff peti tioning parliament to enact measures to meet the disor ganisi d state of parts of these counties " THE IRISH CHIEF SECRETARY.—It is Stated that Sir William Somerville, Bart., is to be raised to the peerage. He left Dublin by the mid-day mail on Tuesday last, and it is believed that he will not return as chief secretary.

Tug EXTINCT " WORLD" NEWSPAPER.—The Court of Queen's 8,-nch have dismissed Mr. Birch's application for a new trial, applied for on the ground that the Earl of Clarendon had given his evidence on his honour as a peer, instead of the usual way by oath, it appearing that the plaintiff and his advist rs acquiesced in the course at the time it was adopted. RESIGNATION OF THE EARL OP' ARUNDEL AS M.P. FOR LIMERICK.—We are in a position to state that the Rol of Arundel and Surrey has finally - resolved to resign his seat for Limerick borough in a short• period after he meeting of Parliament. The noble earl is reported to be indisposed at Carlton-terrace. His medical advisers recommended that he should not attend the banquet given by his constituents in Limerick on Wednesday last.— Morning Advertiser. ELOPEMENT OF A Nurt.—lt has just transpired that a nun, Miss Fanny Mahony, professed in the convent of Dingle. eloped from her cell, and indeed from the monas tic premises, a week or two ago. She quitted the convent in disguise about six o'clock in the evening; had a Bianconi's car waiting for her in the neighbourhood, and got clear away to Trelee, whence she speedily pursued her journey to Cahireiveen. She was not missed till dawn next morning by her sisterhood and the priests, when pursuit was made, but fruitlessly. She is said to be concealed by her friends among the Derrinane mountains: PERILOUS POSITION OF THE PRI ESIS7-4ilt• Telegraph, the new organ of the Romish church, has drawrran affect ing sketch of the position of the priests in the rural dis tricts of Ireland: According to this authority, they are " used up" with hard work and bad pay ; and the worst of it is, there is no prospect of better times before them. The people who heretofore supported them in affluence have withered away, from causes, not strted by the Tele graph, and those who remain are more disposed to - become Protestants than paymasters to their reverences. The Telegraph sees no means of relieving, not the farmers, but the priests, from their dilemma, except by an appeal to the universal Ciurch of Rome. SPECIAL COMMISSION.—THE RIBBON CONSPIRACY. —The special commission, issued for the trial of persons in custody on charges of agrarian murder, was opened at Monaghan on Tuesday... The chief justice (Blackburne) opened the commission in an able and impressive address, and at a subsequent hour two prisoners, named Francis Kelly and Owen Kelly, were arraiened on a true bill for the murder of the late Mr. Bateson. On the following day the trial of Francis Kelly commenced, and the case for the crown closed on the same day. On Thursday morning the defence of- the prisoner Kelly was opened by Mr. Butt, Q.C:, who delivered an eloquent speech. The jury retired at six o'clock to consider the case, and, after remaining in consultation for three hours and a half, were called info court, when, on being asked if they lied agreed, they foreman said, emphatically, they had not. The Chief Justice then ordered them to retire again, and they were locked up for the night. After being locked up for nearly 24 hours, the jary could not agree to a verdict, nor were they discharged until the protracted confine ment, without food or refreshment, had prodnced serious illness amongst them. The Attorney-General announced that he would put Kelly (the same prisoner) on his trial on Saturday morning. In the meantime, a man named M`Donnell was indicted for sending a threatening letter. signed " An Advocate for Tenant-right," to a solicitor; but, as he declared he was not ready for his trial, it was postponed to the next regular assizes. So far, then, nothing—rather worse than nothing—has beenrsdone at Monaghan.

Lord Brougham has arrived in Grafton-street, London, from Paris. The noble and learned lord is considerably improved health, and will resume his parliamentary duties this week. There is, we believe, little doubt. that the present Go vernment (unless previously ejected) will in the ensuing session, introduce a bill for the abolition of the Masters' Offices in Chancery. Lord Palmerston, having been invited by the City of London Trades' Club to offer himself for the city, replied that he had no intention of severing his connexion with Tiverton. The Earl of Derby, as leader. of the Protectionist party in the House of Lords, issued invitations last week for a grand dinner to a large party of• Peers, yesterday, prepa ratory to the assembling of Parliament. Mr. Wegg Prosser having announced to the electors of the county of Hereford that it is not his intention to offer himself again as one of their representatives, the Hon. . Charles S. B. Hanbury, a younger brother of Lord Bate man, has determined to come forward. Lord Ebrington has withdrawn from Plymonth,inorder he is sure of being returned for the latter plane; while, if he divides the liberal interest at Plymouth, by opposing a Free-trader, a Conservative may get in between them.

It is said that he was urged to this Bourse by the statements which were published of his cavalier treatment by the President, in the interview on the previous day. The Chevalier's note is, in substance, an inquiry of the President, whether Mr. Webster, in the speech in question, spoke as Secretary of State, and if the views he there expressed are those of the government ?

MR. GLADSTONE—Mx ARCHES COURT.—We learn from a clerical correspondent, that the Rev. J. E.lGlad stone has been formally cited into the Arches Court, at the instance of the Bishop of London. The citation, we understand, was put into the hands of the rev: gen tleman on Wednesday afternoon.—Advertiser. Arrangements have been made for erectine another new bishopric at the Cape of Good Hope, and Drs. Gray, the Bishop of Cape Town, is on his way to England for the purpose of inducing members of the Church here to raise the necessary funds. It has also been determined tO erect a college at or near Cape Town, for which purpose it is estimated 1'20.000.wi1l be required. The Stamford Mercury states that on Sunday, the 18th instant, when, the officiating minister went to Us sleby, near Market Rasen, to perform the morning ser vice, there was not a soul at the church except himself and the clerk, and asks, is it much to be wondered at that the people of that parish do not attend the church, when the incumbent is an absentee ; the curate, who resides its Yorkshire, has only .been once to the church during the last two years and nine months, and the present officiating minister lives seven miles off. CHURCH PREFERMENT.—Among the hills which con stitute so considerable a portion of the boundary between Shropshire and the county of Denbigh, there is a most romantically situated village, with the pretty, name of Selattyn. The tourist who would obtain the best view of the former counts which is anywhere obtainable at one prospect, and at' the same time would enjoy one o 4 the finest landscapes• that the eye can rest upon within the island, should make a pilgrimage to this secluded village; he would, at this particular time, find the usually quiet spot a scene of unwonted excitement. A change of pas tor is about to take place. The reverend gentleman who is now in charge of the spiritual interests of the parish has 'won " golden, opinions from all sorts of men ': to him the village, which aforetime, owing to its high situa ebnyiewnhciecdh faonr inexhaustiblewater, is ineb te indebted supplyfor a n noble of that t h i y o d n r , a w n a li s n hydraulic ram,nv necessary element is p oure d i nto a central receiver from a perennial spring, many hundred feet, distant. • The ex pense of this. princely benefaction was, more than £3OO. In the exercise of thd same munificent liberality, the same gentleman has, to a great extent at• his own expense, erected a commodious and substantial chapel of ease, for the accommodation of his parishioners living too distant for ccnvenient attendance at the mother church. Nor have these large outlays been spread over a great number of years made by a permanent incumbent. The Rev. A- R. Lloyd; formerly curate of St. John's Church, in this town, has held the living of Selattyn less than six years' , and only as the curate of his father. At the death of the last-mentioned gentleman a deputation of the parishion• ers waited on the patroness of the benefice, Mrs. Lloyd, of Aston, testifying their high estimation for their pastor', and requesting that he might be appointed to the incum-• bencv. The patroness being the near relative (aunt) Of the•gentleman in whose behalf the solicitation founded' on services such as those indicated in the preceding sett , - tences was made, the success of the application was cer tainly not an unreasonable event to hope. The lady has, however, after waiting about five months, made another choice, and her election has fallen upon a stranger. The new rector is, by a sufficiently note-worthy coincidence, also a Mr. Lloyd. but no relation whatever to the Aston family ! The parishioners cannot quite understand how one, who has fulfilled bis duties to their high satisfaction; who has so completely expended the whole income of the rectory among them, that he will retire from the pariah impoverished rather than enriched thereby ; and who is, moreover, the near relation of the house in whose posses sion the living has been from the time of Henry VIII., and of whom the presentation is the property, should be so coolly dismissed, and themselves the while handed over to the government of a pastor of whom nobody among them knows bad or good. There are not those wanting who infer from all this, that of the modes of obtaining Church preferment, that which consists iu deserving it is certainly not the most effectual.

A USTRI AN CRUELTY.—The Vienna correspondent of the Times says :—" A circumstance which has occurred here has excited general and intense indignation. A young man of 20, the shopman of a laceman of this city, having been sent into a suburb on Monday last, reached the open space between the two gates of the Burg just as the Emperor returned with his suite from a grand review. Eager to see the brilliant cortege, the young man placed himself in the front rank of the dense crowd which was assembled, and neither took off his hat nor removed the cigar from his mouth as the monarch passed. Being of a t,ll, gawky figure he attracted the notice of Count Grime, the Emperor's Adjutant-General, who was riding up, gave hiin in charge to a gendarme who was near, adding, I will see that he is punished in an exemplary manner.'

FRANCE ON THE ROAD TO CONVERSION.—I don't know whether any of the religious societies in England are making efforts to convert the French ; but during some months past an extraordinary large numb er o f reli gious tracts, translated into French, have been printed, and every week new translations are being brought out by a dozen at a time. The number of each struck off is very considerable, and the greater number of each impres sion is sent into the provinces—chiefly the south—where Protestants are very numerous.—Corresporiderit of the Literary Gazette, ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC COMMUNICATION via BRITISB NORTH AMERlCA. — Captain Synge, R. E., at the last meeting of the Geographical Society, read an interesting paper upon the subject, in which he claims, upon ten grounds, the superiority for the British North American over the Central American, and Cape of Good Hope, or Indian routes. He argues that it would be more speedy; that the position of the route, with regard to trade winds and great circle sailing, increases its advantages to sailing vessels, and to auxiliary screw-steamers beyond measure that it is more salubrious, and more comprehensive, 3.00 0 miles of the distance being at once annihilated by electric telegraph, and Sydney, New Zealand, China and Jspan. being virtually brought within 8,600, 8,058 7,490 ann. 6,090 miles respectively.
