All the particulars which have as yet been a-eceivecLare given below. Advices had been received at New Orleans, from Vera Cruz, conveying important news from Mexico. Only a telegraphic despatch of it. had however reached New York, and which is as follows : Nmv ORLEANS, Peb. 26, 1859.---The steamship Tennessee has arrived from Vera Cruz :12nd inst. Miram9n was still at Orizaba with x,OOO men, and was collecting forced. loans evert, where.

[This -aph seem to contradict each and tht other. ling parag The English 411 d French merchants at Vera Cruz hare renounced 'the ;protection of their own flag, and placed 'es nude the Amei an flag. , CONTRADICTORY REPORTS FROM MEXICO , 1859.—A despatch from Ncw contradicts the report that the English vess&s of war threatened to interfere with the Tennessee, and also states that a force would be lauded from the English and French vessels "to protect the lives and property of tie subjects of their respective nations, unless Afiramon guaranteed their safety before attacking Vera Cx.z. On -Sunday, the 27th ult., a most terrible affair occurred at Washington, -which had, thrown the whole community into intense excitement. On that day Philip Barton Key, district attorney far the district of Columbia, was shot in the public streets by the Hen. Daniel E. Sickles, one of the moat dis tinguished members of the House of Representatives. According to report, Mr. Sickles, becoming con vinced of - the 'truth of certain scandalous rumours involving his wife, resolved to redress his wrongs. At about two o'clock in the afternoon, proceeding from his residence, near the President's house, to the south-east corner of Lafayette-square, in the same neighbourhood, where Mr. Key was engaged in conversation with Mr. Butterworth, of New York, he :charged Mr. Key with having dishonoured him, and destroyed his domestic peace, and shot him with a revolver. One of the balls entered the left side of the body, and passed through the corresponding point on the opposite side, lodging under the skin. Another shot took effect in the right thigh, near the main artery, when Mr. Key !ell, imploring Mr. Sickles not to kill him. The third .shot was in the right side, but glanced from' the body, inflicting only a bruise. Death ensued in a few moments. Mr. SiCkles at once proceeded to the efUee of the Attorney-General to give himself up, but was arrested before he reached there by two police officers, and conducted before Captain Goddard, who committed him to gaol. His friends remained with him till nine o'clock, when he was removed to his cell, a place about four feet by seven. He has possession of his wife's confession, which, although ample, he says he does not rely upon, as he has too much evidence of her guilt from more reliable sources, He feels, naturally, very much depressed. Key was a widower, and leaves four children, He was a nephew of Chief Justice Taney, and a relative of Judge Campbell, of the Supreme Court. The proceedings in Congress had been quite unimportant in their character. °delta A.DIMPTITA, Feb. this morning TERRIBLE CATASTROPHE ON THE MISSISSIPPI. EXPLOSION OF THE STEAMER PRINCESS - TWO HUNDRED PERSONS LOST AND MISSING. NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 28, 1859. -The steamboat Princess, from V icksburg for New Orleans, exploded her boiler, caught fire and burned to the water's edge, at Conrad's Point, near Baton Rouge, on Sunday morning. Four hundred passengers were on board at the time, two hundred of whom are lost and missing, mostly residents of Louisiana and Mississippi. A large number of those on board were ladies. Those known to be killed are :—J. W. Seymour, of Baton Rouge ; Mr. Calhoun, of Maysville, Kye ; The pilot and assistant engineer of the Princess ; H. B. Murphy, of St. Louis; J. Hodges, of Mississippi; and three whose names are unknown. Among the missing are Charles Bannister and I. Howard, representatives from New Orleans to the State Legislature ; Joseph Clark, second clerk, and Samuel Warts, of Virginia. NO other Northern or Eastern names have as yet - been ascertained. A large number were badly scalded and 'otherwise injured. The boat and cargo are a total loss of the•finest on the river The former was one NEW OaLEA--is, Feb. 28, 1859. —A boat arrived from the. wreck of the Princess brings a number of the wounded. it was foggy at the time of the explosion, and the Princess, being behind time, had too much steam on. A Baton Rouge despatch says : The engineer is reported to have said he would reach New Orleans eertain on time or blow up. The engineer was cut in two, about a hundred persons were wounded, and many of them are in a dangerous and dying state. It is impos sible yet to ascertain the number of the lost. Several boats saved many lives. There is much excitement here and all along the river. Numerous unrecognised bodies are being found, but there are no other Northern or Western names. _ The steamer Illinois had arrived at New York with 1,287,967 dollars in gold. Her dates have been anticipated by the previous arrival overland. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. NEW YORK, March 2 in the Ist inst. the New York Stock Market is reported as having opened with great excitement ; and, before the close of the morning session, became rampant, most of the speculative stocks selling at an advance of from Ito I I per cent. So **ldea and sweeping an advance, of course, could not last ; and accordingly in the after !von there was a reaction, and prices receded, though not to the points at which stocks closed on the previous day. If the report of the commission brokers may be believed, the public are beginning to take a moderate interest in stocks. Several brokers who are 6 -- ne'svn to have a large outside connection have been particularly active within the past day or two.

T he reduction in the discoun t line speaks well for the prudence of some of the leading bank managers, A few banks have been rather notorious, during the past week, as institution s which sought to lwd below the established bank rate ; the majority of their brethren appear to be guided by sounder counsels." The demand for Ex change on London was moderate, the quotations being from 1091 to 109 f. 01,19.74 Our last circular was dated tbe 22nd It, since which the Canada and City o f B a lti more h ave arr i v ed, At latta with I dates to the 16th of February.

On the 12th the sales were 15,000 bales, at a further advance of 1-16 d to kd. The City of Baltimore reported sales on the 14th of 12,000 bales, and, on the 15th 5,000, the market closing with less firmness. Middling Orleans was quoted at 7d, and Uplands 611 per lb. From the manufacturinc , districts the accounts were again of a very favourable chlracter. The disquietude concerning politics was subsiding. The more pacific accounts from Europe, and the advance in Liverpool, with larger sales—as made known to us by the arrival of the Canada at Halifax induced buyers to enter the market in this city with more confidence, and holders to advance their pretensions. The business, which since our last has amounted to 12,000 bales, has been done for export, our own consumption, and some little on specu lation. Prices have advanced fully /c per lb., and it is difficult to get middling qualities of any growth at the quotations annexed. Yesterday, after receipt of letters per City of Baltimore, with Liverpool dates to the 16th Feb., full prices centinued to be paid, and holders asked outside rates. The clearances for the week amount to 2,430 bales, of which 1,490 bales are for Liverpool, re to Glasgow, and L 861 for Hp.mburoh • Cotton in transitu has been more in demand, and more regularity is now apparent in transactions. The sales have been larger than for many weeks past, and amount to 6,000 bales At the close the following. quotations may be considered as established : NOW 'Orleans, with 15-32 d freight;, Middling 11 11-16 d ; Barely Middling., 11-1 ; Low Middling, 10i ; Good Ordinary, 10c ; Ordinary, Di.

SOUTHERN M.LRICEr& : By telegraph we learn of a larger business at New Orleans and Mobile, closing on Saturday last, after receipt of the news per Canada, at an advance of 4 1 c. In Savannah and Charleston a fair business was done on Friday and Saturday, closing with an advancing teniency. _ _ The complaints of the abundance of low trashy cotton in on the increase, and it seen factors will be compelled to hold ov( every Southern market ar highly probab till summer some considerable amount of this description. So great is the difficulty in procuring even middling cotton, that buyers have to take "lists " of 1,000 bales in order to secure one-half which shall average middling; the re-sale of the poor makes the better half cost 111 c to 114 c. This has been tested on several occasions lately in New Orleans. There has been come improvement in the condition of the bar at New Orleans, and some of the vessels detained there have got over. There is still, however, a serious obstruction, and farther delay will be experienced before free access and egress will be had.

RECEIPTS. —The maximum excess which last week stood at 1,021,000 bales, as compared with last year, is now by the tables of this date 984,000 bales, showing a reduction of 37,000 bales. It will be further reduced next week over 20,000 bales, as the telegraphic receipts at New Orleans for the week ending last Friday, show a decrease of 17,000 bales, and at Mobile of 4,000, as compared with the corres ponding week last season. We shall probably now show a decrease upon every week for some time. The total next week will probably fall below 100,000 bales, which is the first week this has happened since Oct. 12. The receipts into the interior towns are much reduced, and the accounts from plantations give evidence that we are getting well through the supply.. SECOND EDITION. NORTHERN TIMES OFFICE, TUESDAY, 9 A.M, AUSTRIA. VIENNA, March 11.—Large bodies of troops have recently come to this city from the Northern and Eastern Provinces of the empire, and there is reason to believe that another army of 50,000 men will, in a few days, be on their way to Italy. AUSTRIA AND SARDINIA. The extreme danger of accidental collision be tween the two armies concentrated on the two banks of the river, which divides the Austrian from the Sardinian soil, is pointed out by the Morning Post. An Austrian soldier shot by one of Garibaldi's Legion, the Sardinian flag insulted by an Austrian, two shots exchanged across the narrow Tscino, and the contest would begin. How little is wanted to kindle the spark which, if kindled, must almost necessarily set Europe in a blaze_ CHINA. The Times contains a summary of the news from long Kong to January 29. The political affairs at Canton were becoming more quiet. . . - The exports of tea, to date, were 36,000,000 lbs., shewing a decrease of 1,000,000 lbs. Prices were extremely high, and the stock still very light with little to come forward. Of silk, the exports were 54,030 bales, shewing an increase of 1,500 baleS ; quotations had. advanced 15 tales, and a moderate business was expected. In the rate of - Exchange, at Hong Kong, there had been a fractional rise, but at Shanghai the movement had been favourable for this country. A further decline of nearly 3 per cent. having taken place, the last transactions_ being at 6s. 2d. The demand for imported goods was rather less active. COMMERCIAL Great dullness and some depression prevailed to-day in the Stock Exchange. All the signs of the times, including a fresh fall on the Paris Bourse, of this day, are regarded as indicating that Lord Cowley's mission has led to no substantial resui, ..1e interest of peace. The increased preparations for war on the part of Sardinia likewise engaged great attention. There was a general disposition to confine business within a narrow compass. The Funds have fallen a quarter per cent. The Lombardo-Venetian new shares have once more descended to a discount. The Discount Market maintains the somewhat less easy appear ance lately noticed. There were no bullion operations of importance at the Bank to-day.—Daily Hews City Article, Monday Evening. s in t The English Funds opened heavily this morning, and remained dull and inactive throughout the day. The general transactions were unimportant, and the tendency to distrust was stimulated as usual by unsatisfactory accounts from the Paris Bourse. There has been rather an active demand for money to-day, both at the Bank and in the open market. The India and Chine telegrams to-day show that the rate of Exchange at Calcutta has still an adverse tendency, although the rise on the present occasion has been only about Q per cent. Times City Article, Monday Evening. The Brighton Railway Traffic Return shows this week an increase of .£2,785. The Portuguese Minister had an audience of her Majesty, on Monday, to present, on behalf of the King of Portugal, the insignia of the Order of the Tower and Sword for the Prince of Wales and Prince Alfred. The EVACUATION OF THE ROMAN STATES. The Aforning Post says the Pope has recently declared that, with regard to the evacuation of his States, his offer was to sanction that step simply as a last resort in the event of war between France and Austria proving otherwise inevitable. MEETING OF LORD DERBY'S SUPPORTERS.—It is stated that at a meeting of Lord Derby's supporters on Monday, it was agreed that hi s l or d s hi p should do as he thought, best with - . the Reform Bill, with a view of keeping the Whigs out of office. The _Advertiser is the only journal which contains any reference to this meeting. LORD GREY AND 'rite REFORM BILL.—The Daily sews in a leading article severely censures Lord Grey's letter on Reform, as an audacious attempt to thrust his opinion as a peer upon the House of Commons, before that assembly has had an opportunity of discussing the important bill that awaits its decision. Tilt NORTHERN TIMES, T. T OESIAY, MARCH 15, 1859 LIVERPOOL POLICE INTELLIGENCE.—YEsanaut BEFORE MR. MANSFIELD, " OH, OH, MRS. M'LOUGHLIN !" —Margaret 761 , Lottglin, a fat, fair, and forty looking lady, described ', L s a boarding house keeper, in Fulton-street, had Margaret Walker, a resident of the same street, an d o f similar ',,ccupation, brought up on a warrant, w hi c h c h arge d h er N v; ith having 'committed divers assaults, misdemeanors, batteries, and other offences against the statute in such case', made and provided. Mr. Bluck defended f rom this catal,.ogue of misbehaviour. Mrs. Margaret M'Lo ug hli n stat e d -that, some days ago, Mrs. Walker flung a hatchet, some scalding water, and other "implements," at her, She detailed a variety of such glar= ing offences, and 'worked herself into a rage of a most alarminr , description, which caused a good deal of laughter. Mr. Gluck : Do you know her husband ? Here Mrs. Walker looked a bucket or two of scalding water at Mrs. M`Loue,ill;n, and cried out, "Hah, hah, my lady !" Mrs.. M'Loughlin replied with a smile, in which all her rage see':fied to vanish, that she had the felicity of the gentleman's aequaintance. Mr. Black : Did you tell that gentle Man that you would forget and forgive his wife ? The witness again swelled like -a balloon with rage, and created sheets of laughter by her gestures and language. Mr. Black : Well, did you drink A drop of whiskey with him on Saturday ? Witness : That's my affair. How nighty inquisitive you are. If (you knew everything, you'd make a fine doctor. Mr. Bluck : But did you drink whiskey with him on Saturday ? No, it was on Friday night r did. Mrs. Walker : Oh, ho ; oh, ho ! I knew it would come to that. I did, Vdid! Mr. Bluck : I was of that way of thinkino. myself. (To witness) : And did you not, after tasting the "barley bree" with the husband, go and give the wife into custody ? Witness : That's my affair, I tell you, sir. Mr. Black : Oh, but you must tell me. Did you do so ? Another fit of rage came on, and then the lady admitted the fact. Mr. Bluck on this founded an argument fin favour of Mrs. Walker, which seemed to have an effect on his Worship, who said Mrs. M'Loughlin seemed to him to be the most perfidious of her sex. After partaking of the beverage that should have acted like the waters of Lethe, she went and gave the wife into custody. He discharged Mrs. Walker, and Mrs. M'Loughlin, having worked her self into about the twenty-first fit of rage, left the court foaming like one of the "flaming O'Flanagans ! " PLUNDER AT A RAILWAY STATION.—William Cheatam, a porter, employed at the Waterloo-station of the London and North Wester n Railway, and James Johnston were charged with having stolen 4 ingots of copper, value £4 10s, the property of the company. Several witnesses were examined, and it appeared that on Friday 578 in gots of copper came in -a van from St Helen's, awl on Saturday, police-officer, 202, got the' two prisoners leaving the station, one having three and the other one of the ingots in their possession. Cheatam got a key and opened the truck where the copper was; and took it out, giving a po r ti on t o th e o th er prisoner . His Wor ship said it was of great importance, both to the company and the public, that the porters and people about the station should be honest. He thought for the better ad ministration of justice, he would send the prisoners for trial, instead of disposing of it in a summary way. The prisoners were accordingly committed for trial. STABBING BY A FEN ' IVLB.—EIIen Millington, the keeper of an improper house, in Norbury-street, was charged with stabbing Charles Clarke, a sailor, belonging to the ship Uncle Joe. It appeared that there was a fight iu the street, and that the prosecutor, along with other persons, broke in the prisone r ' s d oor , and in a row that followed, it was alleged that she stabbed him on the forehead with a knife. The prisoner admitted that she struck him with a key, but denied having used a knife. Surgeon Bennett, proved that the wound was incised, and not contused. The prisoner was sent for trial. Several natives of Wales were bronght up, charged for being drunk, disorderly, and fighting; when his Worship remarked : " Why, you Welsh are such firey brutes that a couple of glasses of ale set you all frantic. I never knew of such people." Ile fined them all in various sums. THE LIME-STREET Hops.—Robert Templeman, the owner of a supper room, in Lime-street, was brought up by Carlyle, one of the detectives, on a warrant issued and signed by the Recader, on a charge of keeping a disorderly house in Lime-street. The officer proved that the warrant was issued by the Recorder for the arrest of the prisoner, and and that after the absence of prisoner for some time, he arrested him. Inspector O'Brien proved that the houie was one of a disorderly description, and that the prisoner kept it. Mr. Mansfield said that was all the evidence he required to commit the prisoner, as the warrant from the Recorder was of itself sufficient. The prisoner complained of the conduct of the police. He went to the office about other matters to make enquiry, when lie was at once arrested. He had laid ont over £BOO on his house, and it was too bad that he should be arrested in this way. • He was committed, but his Worship agreed to take two solvent bail in £25 each, and himself in £5O for his appearance. ASSAULTS ON BOTH SIDES. —James M`Canu, and Pat M'Teigh, were charged with having broken the head of officer 258, and the said officer was charged with having smashed the skulls of the aforesaid persons. From all appearance the " Macks" had very much the worse of the encounter, for their heads were bandaged up,- and they were covered with blood, while the officer did not appear to be the worse of the row at all. It appeared that, on Sunday morning there was some " fun" iu Athol-street, in the shape of breaking into cellars, by way of matins, and the prisoners being the chief actors, the officer went to disturb them, and the fight followed. Whoever was in fault, the prisoners came off worst, for they were fined £5 each, or two months' imprisonment, for the alleged assault on the police. ASSAULT.—James Dalziel, a respectable looking, and well dressed young man, was charged with having assaulted Edward Rigby, a waiter in a supper-room in Lime-street. It was stated by the complainant, that the prisoner went into the supper-room on Sunday night in a state of intoxi cation, and he was ordered out but refused to go. Some altercation took place, when the alleged assault was com mitted. The prisoner was fined .£1 for the assault. BEFORE MESSRS. CASTELL UN AND HOUGHTON. How " A FOOTING " ENDED. —William Atkinson, an engine-driver in the employment of Messrs. Tornassy, brass founder, Henry-street, charged John Roder, Thomas Steel, James George M'Gowan, and Henry Parry, copper smiths, with having committed a violent assault on him on 4th March. Mr. Cobb was for the prosecution, and Mr. Bluck for the defence. From the opening statement of Mr. Cobb, it ap peared that on the night of the 4th instant, about ten o'clock, he was in the public-house of Mrs. Hughes, Suffolk-street, and itseemed that there was some one paying a "footing" in the house, and he asked Mrs. Hughes might he go up stairs to have a peep at the room ? She replied he might go, and on reaching the top of the stairs a man, nam3d Robinson, pushed him, and then the four defendants seized him, kicked him in the face and head. He caught hold of the stairs, but they loosed his hands, flung him down stairs, and beat him severely. He got to the bar, and there they attacked him again. He got into the yard, where they followed, and pulled his legs from under him, and again kicked and beat him. He Was bruised on the body and head, had his lip split, and one tooth knocked out, and others loosened. He was ill, and threw up blood for some days after. The complainant was examined, and fully proved this statement. He said Roder and M'Gowan were the worst of the four. On cross-examination by Mr. Black, the complainant said Steel was not so bad as the other three; and that he (complainant) flung a glass, in self-defence, at one of the defendants at the bar, when they attacked him there. Mrs. Hughes was examined. She said the complainant was worse of drink on the night in question. There was a private supper upstairs at the time, and no one had a right to go there except the parties. 'She said the prosecutor said he would not leave until he broke some of their heads. Her evidence, generally,:was rather against the complainant than for him. To -Mr. Bluck, she said the complainant was partly served right for his con duct. Roder's duty was to stand at the supper-room door, to prevent any one going in. She did not see anyone kick Atkinson. Mr. Hall, surgeon, proved that there w ere several contused wounds on Atkinson's head and body, and he had been roughly handled sonic way. To Mr. Bluck : He could not have got the wounds by tumbling down; they must be from severe blows—most probably from kicks. . Mr. Bluck then addressed the bench, and called complainant a " pestilence," for having attempted to get into the room where there was a pri vate party. He said the complainant might have committed a diabolical murder on one of the men, at whom he flung the glass, if it had hit him. He called the defendant M'Gowan, on behalf of the others, and he swore that Atkin son struck Rode r fi rs t, an d that was the first blow that was struck. They did not use more violence than was necessary to put him out. The Magistrates thought it. was a general fight and dismissed the complaint.

No SHIP SHOULD GO TO SEA Without one of Saunders and Co.'s Patent Self-cleansing Charcoal Filters, cased and fitted-up expressly for use on board ship. Note the address, SA.rikozitosC ‘ fic, . 16, Parker-Areet, Liverpool. WATER COMMITTEE, The usual weekly meeting of this committee ':'as held yesterday, Mr. Jeffery in the chair. The other pntlemen present were—Messrs. Ryley, Mellr)r, Rae, AVoodruff, Vernon, Wagstaff, Chilton, Bennett, Crellin, and Earle. The Engineer reported that the quantity of water received from Rivington during the week ending the 12th inst., was 50,649,677 gallons. The quantity pumped from the wells during the same period was 30,946,925, making a total of 81,596,602 gallons. The proportion of Rivington to the well water was as 5 to 3. Mr. Duncan, the engineer, farther reported that the filter works santinued in good condition. On Saturday and Sunday heavy rains fell at Rivington, and atone period the Angle zark rose two inches within the hour, equal to eight-and a-half million gallons. The rainfall for the week was 0.65 inch. THE WATER METERS. A letter was read from the deputation which were appointed at a meeting of the manufacturers, held in the 'Clarendon-rooms on Friday last, asking the committee to confer with them on the subject of water meters. The deputation consisted of Messrs. Robin son, Stretch, Clarkson, Johnson, and Smythe, and they were appointed to urge upon the committee the necessity of reducing the charge for water to manufacturers to 14d. per tun, and to preas the objections against the adoption of a system which would compel consumers to adopt a meter patented by tke engheer, and to urge upon them the consi deration of other matters touched upon in the meeting. • When the deputation was called in, Mr. Robinson read the following memorial " Gentlemen, —We, the undersigned, being consumers of water for manufacturing purposes, beg respectfully to request your committee to re-consider your resolution wherein all manufactories are to be supplied with water by the meter after the 24th of March. "We beg humbly to submit that the compulsory intro duction of the meter, as proposed, is a stretch of authority not warranted by any Act of Parliament, under which you are empowered to act ; and, as a question of expediency, is not likely to increase the revenue derivable from such sources, because the present price of 3d. per tun of 215 I gallons will cause large consumers to sink, or again to bring into use wells of their own. Many instances of this kind having occurred where parties who were paying from £2O to £5O a year have ceased using the Corporation water entirely, others who only use it as an auxiliary to their own wells. Several firms are now bringing their wells again into use for sanitary purpos es , an d th effect of this will be that their water rates will be materially reduced. "Your memorialists have learnt with astonishment that your engineer, Mr. Duncan, has patented a water meter, and that the meter supplied to consumers during the past three years is exclusively 'his patent. " Your memorialists respectfully urge that, as Mr. Dun can has had, and will have, a pecuniary profit upon every meter he brings into use, he cannot be expected to offer to your committee disinterested advice on a question that affects his own pocket, and the relative advantages to the water estate of meters, as against assessment. Your memo rialists cannot view without alarm the successful attempt of one of their own servants to increase his income by forc ing upon the public an instrument, which will materially tend to increase his present handsome salary of £BOO a-year. ." Your memorialists are advised that the price charged to the water estate for Mr. Duncan's metres vary from £5 to £25 each, and even. to a still higher sum ; that the metre has not undergone any scientific examination ; that it is liable to constant disarrangement, and is soon worn out ; and that even the very high metre rent charged by your committee does not reimburse the wate r es t a t e for the cost, repairs, and interest of the capital invested in them. ' Your memorialists consider that the charge of from 16s to £2 8s per annum for water rent is a very serious increase in the cost of the water. This, together with insisting upon an unduly deposit, reaching as high in some cases as £2O, will act in many instances as a total prohibition to parties about starting new manufactories in. Liverpool, and to small consumers will be an increase of 50 per cent. on the price of water now charged them. " Your memorialists, therefore, beg your committee to permit, as heretofore, the present or some other fair arrangement for water supply, without insisting upon the compulsory use of the meter; or, in the event of your com mittee, after fully investigating the question, considering the meter necessary to a proper working of the water estate, your memorialists respectfully urge that they and others be permitted to use properly tested meters obtained by them selves, and tested in the presence of your committee's officers ; and that you will make a reduction in the price of your water from 3d to ltd per tun, which we are advised is the real cost of the water. Such price, we think, will meet the exigencies of the water estate, and give to manufacturing consumers water on such terms as they may equitably demand. " Your memorialists do not want or ask for any special privileges or exemptions, but are quite willing to bear a pro portionate share of water charges. At the same time, they cannot but be struck with the discrepancy between the expectations they had formed as to the effect of a bounti ful supply of water in a reduction of the price and the attempt now made by meter rent, deposit, &c., to increase it, to one class of consumers, at least from .50 to 100 per cent." The Chairman asked the engineer whether it was true, as stated in the memorial, that the metres were exclusively supplied by him. Duiioan said that the statement was false. When he first invented the metre, he brought it under the notice of the committee ' and expressed his w illi ngness t o g i ve i t f or the benefit of the public, if his own expenses were paid in getting it patented. Since then fifty of these metres had been introduced into Liverpool, and out of that he had not pocketed one farthing. He was out of pocket at the pre sent time by that metre something very much over £lOO. He offered the use of the metre if they thought worth while to adopt it. As to his introducing it for any sinister pur pose, he disclaimed that entirely, He had tried to get the best metre. There was none but what were faulty, and his, he said, though he might be accused of egotism, was as good as any that was made. Mr. Woodruff said he recollected the conversation which Mr. Duncan alluded to, and it was then suggested that if the c omm itt ee used the meter, they should reimburse Mr. Duncan the expenses of getting it patented. In reply to Mr. Woodruff, Mr. Duncan stated that he had never received any com pensation from the committee on account of the meter, and he had been out of pocket to a large extent. The committee promised to give the memorial their best consideration. Mr. Duncan complained of being charged by the depu tation of improper motives. After some discasssion, the deputation were requested to retire. Mr. Robinson, before retiring, said they had no faeling against Mr. Duncan. They only took the matter on a public ground, and if they had stated anything that was not correct, they would be happy to withdraw it. Mr. Woodruff said he would move that if they continue to use the metre, they should reimburse the engineer his expenses for the patent. Mr. Duncan said he had no desire to press it upon the committee. The Chairman said there could be no objection to reim burse Mr. Duncan, if they took the advantage of the metre. Mr. Ryley moved that the memorial be referred to the . orks committee for consideration, and that the town-clerk ;port upon the legal points which it contained. Mr. Vernon seconded the motion. Mr. Campbell reported that at the Roddlesworth reser voir there was a flood, and that the impounded water was discharged three feet one inch into the goit. This concluded the general business.

LIVERPOOL, Monday Evening. In the Liverpool Cotton Market there has again been 'a good' businesS• done, the accounts by the Africa being regarded as favourable for holders. The sales amount to 10,000 bales, and included 2,500 taken for speculation and export. Prices have been very firm. The following is the Cotton statement from the New York List, per Africa : From let September, 1858, to 2nd March, 1859. Total To Receipts. Clearances. Gt. Britain.

The transactions were as follows :-Great Western, 57h, 571 ; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 951, 951; London and North Western, 951, 951, 95 ; Midland, 100-1, 100 ; North Eastern Berwick Stock, 923 ; South Eastern, 21 7-16, 211 ; St. Helen's Rail way and Canal 6 per cent.

The final closing prices were :-Blackburn, 111, 111; Chester and Birkenhead, 63, -1 631; Cale donian, 85, 85.; Chester and Holyhead, 48, 481 ; Eastern Counties, 12 1-16, 12 3-16 ; East Lancashire, 931 94 ; Do. £9 shares, 1, d p ; Great Northern, 1021, 1031 ; Do.

The amount of business done in the Produce markets has been somewhat large. In consequence of the holders of Sugar having given way in prices a little, the transactions have been rather heavy. 18,000 bags of Rice have been sold at from 6s 3d to 8s per cwt. The London Stock Market has ;been unfavourably affected to-day by the news of the attitude assumed by Sardinia, and the otherwise threatening aspect of Continental matters. The price of Consols has, in consequence, declined a shade from the closing quotations of Saturday. and until something definite is known as to Lord Cowley's mission, there will, it is expected, be an absence of business. The final closing prices for Consols were 95 . 4 to 96. In the London Market for Railway Shares there has been very little 'business done, and in the early part of the day prices were heavy, but towards the close of business they became more steady, and finally left off at the follow ing quotations :—Ambergate, 6, 61 ; Caledonian, 841, 85 ; Do.

The discount market on Saturday was quiet, but the best bills were not generally taken below 21 to 28 per cent. At the Bank very little business was done. Of the 66,0001. in specie by the steamer Lebanon, a portion consists of gold and the rest of Mexican dollars. The gold has already been sold for the Continent. 'The annual meeting of the Bank of Australasia took place to-day, Mr. O'Farrer in the chair. The accounts rendered to the meeting were very satis factory, showing a net profit on the year's operations of £160,460 Os 2d. The report stated that the earnings had diminished in the year, but the directors felt justified in continuing the next divi dend and bonus in April at the present rates, viz., interest 6 and bonus 14, or 20 per cent. per annum. The first portion of the Victoria loan, amounting to £1,000,000, had been disposed of upon terms that were satisfactory. It appears that no event of im portance had taken place in the' colonies since the meeting in December last. The chairman merely commented on the topics of the report, which was adopted.
