Monarch The population of Edinburgh, it appears by the census, is 138,194, being an increase in ten years of 2,140. There is to be a complete change in the uniform of the French infantry, which will extend to the ordnance service. The 72d Highlanders were reviewed by Prince Albert, at Windsor, on Thursday. A respectable young man, named John Smith, was killed upon the Dublin and Kingston Railway on Monday night. The reformers intend giving Lord Morpeth a dinner in Dublin. It will not take place immediately ~but it will come off soon. The Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland has accepted the office of High Steward of the borough of Barnstaple, voted him by the Town-council. William Major, the aged man left for execution at Exeter, has been respited. The crime he was charged with was murder, but it did not appear that he committed the deed. A French officer writes home to say the Shah of Persia cuts off heads at the rate of thirty or forty per day ! Plea sant country ! The celebrated steeple-chase horse Jupiter was recently shipped, per Rob Roy steam-ship, from Hull, for Vienna, as a present to Prince Lichtenstein. A fine boy, about four years of age, son of William Lisle, a labourer at the Railway Station, at Hexhain, died on Wed nesday of hydrophobia, occasioned by the bite of a dog about a fortnight before. In the small village of Swinburne, containing twenty-three inhabitants, there are now living eight individuals, whose united ages amount to six hundred and eighteen years ; the majority of the above are following their ordinary occupations. The address in the House of Lords, in reply to her majes ty's speech on the opening of the new parliament, will, we understand, be moved by Earl Spencer and be seconded by the Marquis of Clanricarde. The half-yearly meeting of the London and Birmingham Company was held on Friday, and a dividend of 44 per share declared. The last dividend was only 3 per share. The working expenses are reduced to about 3.5 per cent. MOLIERE.—A monument is about to be erected at Paris to the memory of this great writer. The titles of the differ ent comedies will be inscribed on the pedestal. It is expected that the inauguration of the monument may take place on the 17th February, 1842, the anniversary of Moliere's death. IRISH FREEDOM OF ELECTIONS.—A black proscription list, containing the names of the persons who voted for Messrs. Christmas and Reid, at the late election for Water ford, has been published and circulated with malicious industry. An awfully sudden death occurred in Downpatrick last week. A man named Montgomery, who for the last three months was in the habit of taking between two and three quarts of raw whisky every day, dropped down dead in a fit of intoxication. At the half-yearly meeting of the shareholders in the Eastern Counties Railway, held on Friday, in London, the chairman stated, that the line would be opened all the way to Colchester, fifty-two miles from London, in the Septem ber of the ensuing year. The completion will be at an average expense of £34,000 per mile, and the entire cost of the line £2,300,000. In the American Navy an official order has been lately issued for all officers to cut off their soap locks, and enacting, where whiskers are worn, that they shall not descend beyond one inch below the tip of the ear, and from thence making a straight line to the corner of the mouth. Moustaches and billy goalies are absolutely prohibited to be worn by naval officers in uniform. The project for rendering Belgium an integral part of France, by the union of the customs of the two countries, is likely to meet with very general opposition. The Augs burgh Gazette regards the proposed incorporation as a poli tical arrangement—and consequently opposed to the principle of European equilibrium—to which none of the Five Powers will consent without mature deliberation. There is at present residing in the parish of Great Hazelly, Oxon, a woman in her 40th year, who has favoured the parish by producing 19 illegitimate children, she was married 20 years since, had one child by her husband, who absconded before it was born, and has never since been heard of : the woman, for 19 following years, has produced an illegitimate child, making a total of 20, 13 of the children are living: the cost to the parish of this expensive family exceeds £360. RoLss OF THE BAR.—In one of the cases at Nisi Prim, only one counsel was engaged on the side of the plaintiff. Mr. Sergeant Ludlow, who was on the other side, objected on the part of the bar, as a point of privilege, that in every defended case there should be a junior counsel employed as well as a leader. This being coincided in by the bar generally, the case was stopped for a moment till the attorney for the plain tiff handed a brief to a second counsel.—Hereford Journal. SHARP PRACTICE.—At a Justice of Peace Court held here a few days ago, one of our townsmen brought an action against his neighbour for ls. 9d. The defender established a counter claim for Is. 3d., when the former obtained a decree for the sum of sixpence. By the rules of the court the suc cessful litigant had to pay a shilling for the oath given by the defender in support of his counter claim, and the justice awarded a portion of the expenses, amounting to Is. against the pursuer. The latter had, therefore, to pay 2s. for the recovery of his sixpence. —Inverness Courier. THE POOR LAw ACT.—It is intended by the conservative party that the Poor Law Commission, which will expire in the course of a few months, shall be renewed for another year. It is felt that in the short session of parliament, about to commence, it would be impossible to deal satisfac torily with so important a question as the Poor I .aw Amend ment Bill, as propounded by the 'Whigs ; but it is consola tory to know that the new administration fully purpose to divest the obnoxious measure of its harsh and uncalled-for provisions, and to adapt it to the real requirements of the country.—Newcastle Journal. THE CONFERENCE OF MINISTERS.—We understand that the Society of Friends in this town has been applied to for the use of their Meeting House, to hold the ministerial Anti Corn-law Conferences in, but have declined to lend it, as they consider the conference of a political character. Al though a few of the members of that society have been so imprudent as to assist in some of the various systems of poli tical agitation, which have now become so common, the ge neral body of that society entirely disapproves of such pro ceedings.—Manchester Courier. A ridiculous story, copied from the Pottsville Miner's Journal, has been put in circulation, stating that the bitu minous coal used on board the British steamers plying to this country has frequently during the voyage ignited. The con signee at this port of the Great Western has thought proper flatly to deny the fact. It was scarcely necessary ; for bitu minous coal having, time out of mind, been the sole fuel used in some of the most populous countries of the world, and having been piled up in cellars and in every possible way for use when wanted, without any instance of spontaneous com bustion occurring, the idea that it should now for the first time take place was too ridiculous to deserve a moment's consideration.—New York Morning Chronicle. FREEDOM OF PROTESTANTISM IN IRELAND.—A curious and somewhat interesting case came on at the Tyrone assizes on Monday. It was brought before Judge Crampton. The simple facts are that a Miss Graham, who is disposed to conform to the Protestant religion, was assaulted by her uncle, who was anxious that she should be educated as a Roman Catholic, and, in endeavouring to coerce her to sub mit to his wishes, treated her with great cruelty. Subse quently to this circumstance she was placed in a boarding school, it being understood that she was to en j oy f u ll reli gious liberty. However , this understanding was violated; for on the 26th of July, as Miss Graham was proceeding to visit a female friend, she was waylaid by her uncle and others, who placed her in a covered car and carried her off. The young lady appeared before the court, h av i ng b een b roug h t before it, by virtue of a writ of habeas corpus. The result was, that the persecuted lady has been placed under the care of a Protestant lady of independent fortu ne , w h o w ill perm i t her the free exercise of her religion. THE CROPS.—The most favourable weather for the ripen ing of the corn crops has, wish the exception of one day, prevailed throughout this district during the present week, and the atmosphere is now as bright and genial as could well be desired. Some patches of barley have been cut in various parts of Northumberland. The wheats h ave assume d a yellow hue, and notwithstanding the late rains stand full and strong upon the ground. It is believed that by the termina tion of the present month, should th e weat h er cont i nue favourable, of which there is at present every reasonable prospect, the harvest will have become general in the North of England. The statements which have appeared in certain " liberal" journals in the metropolis as to the prospects of the harvest are as preposterous as they are wicked, and can have been put forward with no other view than either to favour the nefarious designs of a set of gamblers in grain, or to increase the distress and discontent of the manufacturing population. At present there is no probability that the crop of wheat will be deficient in quantity or quality, and it may be hoped that in a very few weeks flour will be much more reasonable in price than now, though the management of in terested parties, unhappily prevails.—Newcastle Journal. SLEEPY JUROP.S.—In the course of an inquest held yes- terday before Mr. Wakley, a juror, addressing the coroner, asked if the witness then under examination might not be allowed to sit down. Mr. Wakely replied, that he deemed it a very bad plan for witnesses to be sitting while giving their evidence, for they might perchance fall asleep, while standing kept them awake. He did not know whether the jurymen themselves, for the very same cause, should not be required to stand; for he often met with jurymen who seemed marvellously inclined to take a nap. He recollected on one occasion a very bulky gentleman, who weighed about twenty-five stone, who had been summoned as a juryman, and who, after being sworn and seated, said to the person next him, " I'm sure I shall go to sleep, so take this," giving him a pin, "and when you see me going off, just prick me with it." He presently after dozed off, but the person who held the pin, not knowing his temper, refrained from using it, and let him slumber till he was aroused by the beadle, when he became quite enraged at not having been "pricked" by the gentleman he had appointed to that office, and he was with difficulty pacified. At an inquest at Harrow, some months since, the beadle was obliged, during the inquiry, to be continually handing snuff to the jury to enliven them ; and at a more recent inquest he held in Marylebone, after viewing the body, and before any witnesses had been ex amined, the foreman went home; and on the beadle being sent for him, he actually found him in bed and fast asleep ! To prevent, therefore, the witness's falling into such a lethargic state, he had adopted the plan pursued in all other courts—namely, to make them give their testimony standing. —Herald. From " A Few Notes on Unpaid Letters" we take the following :—" The penny postage has already wrought an ex traordinary change in the public ideas of the value of money. Formerly, according to the old maxim, ninepence was but ninepence; but even twopence has now become a sum ster ling, to demand which is to stir men's blood as violently as if the said coins were flung in their faces. To put a letter into the post, and an intimate friend to the expence of two pence, was, only the other day, perfectly natural; under the. present system it is fiendish. A letter sent free costs the sender a penny ; to receive a letter not prepaid, is to expend double the amount. In the degree of attention shown to this little fact, it is not impossible to find a test of the principles of mankind—of the whole corresponding portion of creation at least. The last post Office returns show that there are upon an average 7,65-1 persons—monsters in the human form, we should rather say—in this metropolis alone, who walk about day by day, droppin: stampless epistles into ravenous letter boxes, from sheer misanthropy—hatred of their fellow-crea tures ; whi c h f ee li ng th e y are pleased to call forgetfulness, s ß a ef T ee Plessness, or copperlessness, as convenience may dictate. The man tserinusly upon the character of such a correspondent. whose lett ers are no t prepaid m a y be thus de nounced . —He is selfi s h, because he would rather you should pay twice th an that he should ' pay once ; he would rather in flict an injury his friend than act fairly himself; he is disloyal, becaus e n h e ought to grace his letter with the head of his queen, a n d he d brother's two pocketseclpi incekseddotinoghsaov;inhg a ep h re an fe d rs th se ru ei s n t g in h t i o s one of his own.—Omnibus. It is said that the celebrated singer Maims Poeta has lost all her large fortune by the failure of M. Geyniuller, the banker, of Vienna. An Egyptian goose—a very rare bird in this part of the country—was a few days ago shot at Wark, on the south side of the Tweed, by Lord Ossulston's gamekeeper. All the accounts received from Asiatic Turkey concur in describing the harvest as the most abundant remembered foi several years. A church rate at Cheltenham was carried last week by a majoz ity of 329; one thousand two hundred and twenty-six votes having been polled in favour of the church. A fine specimen of the sturgeon was caught in the salmon net at Reiss, on Saturday week. It was of a large size, mea suring six feet seven inches long, and weighed about sixty pounds. Moore, formerly a chartist preacher, has just died in Tewkesbury workhouse. Befor e hi s d ea th he expressed deep repentance for baying embraced the chartist cause. Mr. Holloway,. the ointment man, was discharged in the Insolvent Court on Tuesday last. His present debts amount to £2747, and his assets, good, bad, and indifferent, to £230. At the late Exeter Assizes, sixty barristers were in the Nisi Prius Court in a short time after its opening, being more than double the number of causes on the list. One of the 36 carrier-pigeons despatched from Bayonne the other day reached Liege, a distance of 300 leagues, in 24 bout s. Three suicides by respectable persons, brought about by gambling, and other pecuniary embarrassments, took place in Lisbon last week. INCREASE OF EMIGRATION.—Arrived at Quebec, to the 24th July, 22,577 emigrants. To same period last year, 18,280. Increase 4,297. Mr. Green, the aeronaut, made a nocturnal aerial voyage in the Nassau balloon on Monday from Vauxhall Gardens, London, and alighted at Barking, in Essex. UNITED STATES STEAMERS.—It is confidently reported that the keels of four or five government steamers will be laid immediately, viz : two at Charleston, one at New York, and one at Philadelphia. During the last week, Dr. Bowring has twice addressed the Working Men's Association at Exeter, " for the pur pose," as a correspondent observes, " of enlightening them on the three P's—the Principles of Paid Patriotism !" The tailors and other artisans of a village in France have formed a society, the object of which is to prevent the giving of credit to customers who have not paid their debts to other tradesmen in the same line. MORE CIVILIZAVION.—A. man named Cutler, a labourer in Lyme, Connecticut, threatened the life of his employer, Dr. Noyes, last Tuesday evening. In the attempt to arrest him, the sheriff, named Huntley, was shot.—American paper. Two swallows, lately entered a room in the house of Mr. Dorman, at Pickworth, Rutland, by the chimney, built their nest in a tea-saucer on the chimney-piece, and batched four fine young ones, which are now nearly fledged. Lord Palmerston has announced to the Anti-Slavery So ciety, that government will appoint no persons to offices under the Crown where slavery and the slave trade exists, who are not decidedly opposed to those systems of crime. There is a talk of a marriage between one of the Sultan's sisters and the son of Mehemet Ali ; the Viceroy seems in favour with the Porte, and magnificent presents are to be sent to him. The Grand Duke of Tuscany has instituted a silk fair, which is to be held in Florence during the latter part of September in each year, the 20th of next September being appointed for the commencement, when it is to continue open till the following Saturday. The old and magnificent ruin of Cambridge Castle, the only vestige of the warlike habits of our ancestors remaining in that town, is now levelled with the ground, to make room and furnish materials for the erection of the new county court. A most horrible accident occurred last week in the County of Two Mountains; a man, while in a state of intoxication, having fallen into a kettle of boiling potash, had been com pletely dissolved. Search was made for his body, but not the least particle of it could be found.—Canada Times. On the 18th ult. the heavy rains had so loosened the earth somewhere amid the mountains of Switzerland, that a whole grove of trees became detached, and, slowly sliding down, completely planted itself on a field of oats, which it entirely covered. The requisition to the Hon. 0. Duncombe, requesting him to become a candidate for the North Riding of York shire, having received 4000 signatures, has been forwarded to that gentleman, who has accordingly accepted the invitation. The whigs dare not shew fight. A respectable mechanic being tried at Hampton -court for breaking a bough off a tree in Bushy Park, was ordered by the magistrates, instead of the five shilling fine, to draw a large roller over the gravel walk of the Wilderness for half au hour. It behoves conservative members of parliament just now to look sharply after the movements of the Board of Trade— the officials there, faithful to the bidding of their whiz masters, would connive at any returns, however false, which might forward the free trade views of the Melbournites. It is a curious coincidence that the Latin epigram recently recited at Cambridge was on steam-carriages; and that the prize was gained by a worthy scion of the mechanically illustrious house of Boulton—Matthew Piers Watt Boulton, Esq., of Trinity College. PAIXHAN'S GUNS.—AII the fortresses. on the coast of France are preparing to mount Paixhan's guns. The de struction effected by them on the coast of Syria has induced the War Minister to employ them in all fortifications purely defensive. We shall next hear of their being mounted upon the walls of Paris. A BLIND BARGAIN.—A distinguished field-officer, totally blind, was led to the hymeneal altar last week, by a bloom ing bride, " fat, fair, and forty." Besides her personal at tractions she gives her happy bridegroom a fortune of not less than £30,000. Ladies' ages are now, unfortunately, accurately ascertained by the census returns.—Limerick Chronicle. The Queen Dowager of Spain has removed from the Palais Royal to her new residence in the Rue de Courcelles, Fau bourg de Roule; her private money-chest, which is of solid iron, encrusted with coral and jewels, was removed last week; many Spanish families have taken houses, or apart ments, in the immediate neighbourhood ; the King of the French has delivered to her Majesty a key of the park of Mousseau. NEW RAILWAY TRAIN CONTROLLER.—Vienna letters describe a useful invention by an Infantry Captain, Herr Ferdinand Freissauff de Neudegg, of a simple and completely successful apparatus, enabling the conductor of a steam train by pressure on a spring, immediately to detach the carriages from the engine, and instantly stop the former. The appa ratus is said to be further so contrived as to act of itself in the event of the locomotive quitting the line of rails, spon taneously, and at once effecting its separation from the rest of the train. AFFLICTING EVENT.—The Hague papers give the follow ing painful account of the death of Madame Rochussen, the young and amiable wife of the Dutch Minister of Finance. She bad lain in a few weeks ago, but was still in a feeble state, when her brother, whom she had not seen for ten years, arrived from abroad. Intending to give his sister an agreeable surprise, he entered her chamber without even her knowing that he was in Holland. The shock was so strong, that Madame Rochussen was thrown into a fainting fit, which terminated in her death, before even the minister could be called from his cabinet to receive her sigh. COTTON CROP IN THE UNITED STATES.—Of the growing crop, it is yet too early to say anything definite. The ap pearances thus far are favourable, but as the plant generally this year is some weeks later than usual, the yield will even more than usual depend upon the season. With late frosts, and an open winter, which will allow more time for picking, a considerable increase may be anticipated on the last crop. The receipts of that crop, at the Southern ports, are now nearly drawn to a close. They amount to 1,577,000 bales, which will probably be increased to about 1,600,000; being a falling off from the preceding year of 580,000 bales. Very little of the new crop can be in market before October. As before observed, however, all speculation upon the quality or extent of this crop is yet premature.—New York American, July 31. CURIOUS STATISTICS OF HEALTH IN NEW ORLEANS. —According to the report of the Board of Health, the whole number of deaths from July 1 to 15, was 165—in a popula tion of upwards of 100,000—of these a large portion is taken from that class that is not enumerated at all—the strangers, viz.,—certainly 29—and most probably, 44 others classed as unknown. Only 12 eases of fever—of sudden deaths, ar ticulo mortis, sun-stroke, &c, are 21—a large number, but accounted for from the extreme and unprecedented heat that has prevailed. Of the ages, some remarkable facts are pre sented to those living, three over 100 years of age, two from 70 to 80, and five from 60 to 70. And we have also been in formed, that there was a case of twins, with the exact con formation and connection of the celebrated Siamese twins. — New York paper. THE " OVERPAID" ESTABLISHMENT IN IRELAND.- From the last published report of the Ecclesiastical Commis sioners in Ireland, it appears that the stipends paid to the 36 licensed curates of Dublin amounts to £2,013 19s. 4d. ; while the salaries to commissioners, secretary, treasurer, and clerks is £6,262 3s. 6d. Thus we perceive that these lay gentlemen, a few hours a day at their writing desks, appro priate to themselves £4,248145. 2d. more than all the licensed curates in Dublin receive for their toilsome and continual labours. The report of these Irish Commissioners is cer tainly important in one respect, as it serves to show how the Irish Church has been plundered and her revenues despoiled for the purpose of glutting Popish hatred and the cupidity of Whig-Radical partisans. The entire amount of the salaries paid to all the licensed curates in Dublin gives an average of £55 Bs. 7d. per annum to each ! a sum less than what the lowest clerk of the commissioners receives; and considerably lower than what a respectable butler or footman costs any of three salaried commissioners who have entertained us with the report from which we extract our figures. INVESTMENTS IN IRELAND.—It iS evident a more fa vourable opinion is entertained by the capitalists in England of the value and safety of property in Ireland; a re-action arising out of the favourable result of the elections is too palpable to be mistaken. To corroborate this we might mention that in one single case Mr. George Robins, who had announced, three months ago, the sale of £150,000, of free hold farms, to be sold in July, had apparently abandoned the idea altogether, at all events for a long period ; instead of which we now perceive by our journal of to-day, that he has fixed so early as the ensuing month to introduce to the moneyed world some of the finest properties in that country. In this fine property is necessarily included very considerable political influence : to illustrate this fact it need only to be mentioned there are 170 public houses, and dwellings in the borough town of Mallow, with the power to create sufficient to render a seat perfectly secure. It is, in fact, no longer in doubt or uncertainty that rents are paid infinitely more re gularly in Ireland than in England, and yet the land there sells to pay a clear 4 per cent. atter every possible deduction, i arid in England little more than three. We have heard it whispered, that the large sales alluded to in this paragraph, must, from circumstances over which there is no control whatever, be sold to the highest bidders. All these great sales come off at Gresham's fine hotel in Sackville-street; Dublin.—lrish Paper. MYSTERIOUS OCCURRENCE AT SEA. --OR Saturday, the 24th of July, 1841, at seven o'clock in the evening, being in latitude 48 10 north, and longitude 26 west, wind south-west, and steering E. by S.

She attracted our notice from our being able to discern something between her main and fore-masts, which bore an unusual appearance for a ship, and she seemed to be distant about six or eight thaten had to s e t n e enaiipleustin Awtboha(lwf-iptabstmrydsneelotwwoasofbetlhoew two rockets go up in the direction in which we had last seen the vessel.

SECOND EDITION. Standard-ojice, Three o'clock - LIVERPOOL. CORN EXCHANGE,—This DAY. (From Messrs. R. MAKIN Sr SONS' Circular.) Of English and Irish Grain and Flour the supplies into this port since the 10th instant are small, but of Oatmeal large, and of Colonial Flour we have some further parcels in from Glasgow. The arrivals direct from Canada contain a moderate quantity of Wheat and Pease, with a little Oatmeal and nearly 27,000 barrels of Flour ; those from the foreign ports of Europe comprising merely 3820 quarters of Wheat. We have also to note 3140 qrs. of Beans principally from Egypt, and 1700 qrs. of Indian Corn from Odessa. The weather, which, with the exception of a few slight showers, has been favourable since the close of last week, is very fine to-day ; and the stocks of free Wheat and Flour being nearly exhausted, buyers still wait the general release of Canadian on Friday next, thereby rendering our market this morning extremely inactive, and prices in consequence have receded to nearly the currency of Tuesday last. Bond ed 'W heat and Flour also have excited very little no tice to-day, and the advance of Friduy was hardly main tained. Barley, being scarce, was rather dearer ; and Malt realised is. per quarter over former prices ; Beans commanded a simi lar amendment ; and Pease ruled quite as high as last noted. Oats, upon a limited demand, barely supported the above improvement ; and Oatmeal, with much less inquiry than ast week, gave way ls. per sack from the increased terms of Friday.

Small parcels of Bologna it rgols at 475, of brown Tartar at 49s to sos, and about 10 casks of Cream of Tartar from 72s to 76, comprise all the sales made in these articles. 20 bales of good Persian Berries sold at xl2 per cwt. ; a few pipes of concentrated Lemon Juice at idper degree. Thereto,. been a more general inquiry for Madders and Roots, but the transactions reported are too trifling to notice. Olive Oil as been in moderate request, with prices tally supported. No further imports of new Seal Oil having been received, we have no transaction to report this week by Importers, but about 20 tuns pale have been sold by Dealers at £3l 15s to .€32 ; about 30 tuns Newfoundland Cod at about our quotation. Seed Oils are generally held for higher prices, but which have not yet been realized. For Oil of Turpentine there is more inquiry, at the prices quoted. The transactions in Palm Oil are limited to about 300 tons, on the spot, at X 33 lOs to £33 15s, principally from the quay, and part taken for export. In Baltic Hemp but little business hes been done, and £39 for Petersburg clean Hemp is the most that can be realized. 226 bales Sunn have been sold at £l9, and a parcel of Manilla at per ton; Jute is steady at the prices quoted. Flax is in very limited request. The demand for Tallow continues good, and about 500 packages of all descriptions have been taken by the Trace, at 4gs to 50s 6d for Petersburg yellow Candle, and 42s 6d to 47s for South American.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, AUG. 13 The sales of the week are 18,700 bales, of which exporters have taken 1100 American, 400 Surat and 250 Bahia, and speculators 400 American. The market closes *d. per lb. lower than this day week in American, d. in Surat, and Brazils not much enquired for. Prices nominal. COTTON MARKET, AUGUST 14 We have no change in our Cotton market today; the same gloomy feeling and inactive demand prevades it, as for some time past, and the unseasonable weather, coupled with the badness of trade, is the all absorbing topic of conversation. The quantity sold to-day is estimated at 2500 bales, at yesterday's prices, with a very uneven market, varying id to.jd v lb in the different broker's stocks. COTTON MARKET, AUGUST 16. Our market, with a somewhat improved and more general de- mand, doubtiess caused to a certain extent by the improvement in the weather. Speculators have operated to the extent of 800 bales, which with the supply of 600 to exporters, and 3500 to the trade, makes a total of near 5000 bales, at last week's prices, with a de cidedly better feeling in the market, which would be lasting with a corresponding duration of the fine weather. COTTON MARKET-WEEKLY REPORT The unsettled state of the weather, together with the gloomy accounts from the manufacturing districts, have had a very un. favourable effect upon the market, several of the holders having evinced great disposition to sell. Priees of American generally have declined id per lb., Brazil and Surat id, whilst Egyptian, which is offered freely, has been sold at a decline of id to id per lb. Exporters have taken 1100 American, 250 Bahia and 400 Surat, and 400 American have been taken on speculation.

LIVERPOOL CORN MAR'KET, Ara. 14 The arrivals of Oats and Oatmeal from Ireland, since this day se'nnight, amount to 4,270 quarters and 6,537 loads respectively ; but, with these exceptions, the imports of British grain, 8:c. are light. From Canada we have received 6,572 quarters of Wheat 3‘, -. 364 barrels of Flour, 2,869 quarters of Peas ;• and, from foreign states, 4.910 quarters of Wheat, 51s quarters of Oats. and 840 quarters of Beans. Though we have had a fine day or two, the weather has still been unsettled : in the early part of the week wet, cold, and boisterous; and large transactions have continued to take place in bonded Wheat and Flour, at daily advancing prices Ss 3d to 105 per 701bs is now the range for the several qualities of Wheat, 35s to 358 tid per barrel for United States Flour, being 9d to Is per bushel and 2s her barrel above the quotations of this day se'linight. Free Wheat must also be noted 4d to 6d per bushel, Flour Is to 25 per sack and barrel dearer ; of these, however, the millers and dealers have bought cautiously, under the anticipation of the release of the Canadian, next week, at the lowest point of duty. Most other articles of the trade have become enhanced in value. Irish mealing Oats have brought as 7d to 3s 9d per 451115., and Oatmeal has found speculative buyers at ass to 32s per 2451b5. Barley has become extremely scarce ; yesterday light grinding qualities of Foreign were sold at 5s to 5s 6d, fine samples at tis to 6s 3d per 6111bs. Beans and Peas, duty paid, are each Is per qr. dearer, whilst for bonded parcels the advance is much greater: 3‘;s per 4801bs. has, to-day, been paid for three or four cargoes of Egyptian Beans, in bond.
