In Consols the adverse action was only to the extent of 9:lc- eighth per cent.; but in other descriptions . there was an apparent heaviness No great activity was noticeable , in any department, the dealings having been restricted through the operators being occupied with the arrangement of the monthly account, which is being gradually adjusted in a quiet manner.

(I"?.ein the "Daffy Kith,' 'city - TUESDAY EvENlNG.—There has been a very quiet day in the Stock Exchange. Leading members absent ; and speculation, as usual at this period, Coaled - Within a very narrow compass. The market closedabout 1-16 per cent. lower than yesterday. In the Share Markets dulness prevailed, as there was little , deflection in prices. The Money Market retains a less easy appearance than lately noticed; and, although the banks are getting back gold, an impression is gaining ground that an . -ad vance in the minimum rate of discount is only a ques tion of a f3w weeks. The sum of £65,000 of Australian gold was taken to the Bank to-day. The foreign exchanges, thiS afternoon, were generally firmer. (From the Times City Article.) TUESDAY EVENING.—The English Funds opened at an improvement of 4. 4 but there was a diminisheo firm ness late• in the day, although the quotations on the Paris Bourse were again steady, and some further amounts of gold were taken to the Bank. ' The principal business of the day was again in Indian Scrip. The price is maintained at 22 to prem. In consequence of the Consols settlement, there has been an increased demand for money to-day, and it was only in exceptional cases that the rate was below_ the Bank minimum. • It is said that the Indian Council made a further loan to-day of about £400,000, for several weeks, at 2 SOUTH AMERICAN TALLOW AND GREASE.—lmports equal to 590 pipes Tallow.

TO CORRESPONDENTS, THE LIVERPOOL WOOL TRADE.-SpT. 7 Monte Video and Buenos Avres wool has been in good demand the last month. For all, but the best bred classes of washed and greasy merino and fine mestiza, the market has shown no change, though it has been firm. Cordova wools are scarce, and would find an easy sale if from good assortments. Under no circumstances can we insert communications not accompanied by the author's real name and address, not necessarily for publication, but as a guarantee of good faith. Short letters are encouraged on matters of public interest. They should be legibly written onone side of the paper only, and contain (in confidence) the writer's name and address. The fact that River Plate wools come more free from burr than used to be the case, has caused our spinners to deal very.freely in them. The demand' is chiefly for home requirements; and, as our manufacturers are com peting with success against foreign buyers, the prospects for all these wools in this market are highly favourable.

Our criticisms are levelled at what the wise and good of their own nation s well as ours, admit , 11E. specially open to 1 critieL the character and position.of the ,English people The history of theirs press and a great deal of their literature, long antecedent to the time of their present ruler, has been one of alternate threats and sneers, insinuations against our good faith, scoffs at our pretensions— though, Heaven knows we have pretended little—e power, predictions of our downfal, and self- ?nvy at our appropriation of the office of chastiser and scourge The last demonstration of this sort in the form of a latter, from one known to be deep in Im perial counsels, and published in the Indepen- deice Beige, has been already referred to in our columns. We do not wish to attach too much importance to it—though we are confidently assured that it may fairly challenge to itself a semi-official character -but we cannot be far wrong in using it as a commentary on the rela tive positions taken up by the Press of the two countries.. The 'bugbear is, as always, the moral and material influence among the nations pos sessed by this country, and the glorious mission of France is, as always, to diminish and ultimately destroy it. The EMPEROR, as English critics haye been blamed for conjecturing, broke up' the Italian war in order to make peace with Austria, and commence an active alliance, the ultimate object of which is the subjugatiOn of England. Louis NAPOLEON, having established his 'super- eminent military prestige, has returned to France for the purpose of continuing that naval organisa tiOn, which is to secure him the " Sovereignty of the seas." Russia is to be, of course, a party to the little arrangement. The mutual spoliation of Turkey supplying the nefarious bond, which is to keep these thieves together. The moment for letting loose the confederate burglars, with their Godless hosts, over Christendom, it is not for common men to predict. Louis NAPOLEON is himself the Archpriest who sits upon the tripod, and at whose lips all nations tremblingly expect the oracle. But on,e means of possible or even probable postponement of her fate, is consider ately placed within the reach of England, lest she should become helplessly struck, with the desperation of a premature despair. The only chance she has of delaying for a brief and gener ous moment, the march of the great Incendiary, is by keeping in power Lord PALMERSTON and a Liberal Ministry who will continue to mince and talk small, and profess their willingness to lick the dust off LOUIS NAPOLEON'S feet! Whether England will be content to propitiate the evil passions of a foreign marauder, by the degrading subserviency of her Ministers is. a question which we may ask in passing, but which there is scarcely any need to ask. Only,,if the reputation which a Whig• Ministry seems to have contracted among our foreign critics have any truth in it, take sooner rAigianct• thrusts theta fr 0 ro- ber:the better for her own honour, and even for her own ultimate 'salvation. England loathes and scorns the idea of buying off Louis. NAPOLEON. It was because she instinctively disdained the slightest taint of such a suspicion, that she 'threw out the conspiracy bill in Parliament two years ago ; though,- quite possibly, a measure in the abstract just and expedient. Rut she cannot buy him off if she would; and if she take the hint, she will seize the first opportunity of consigning her honour to Conservative hands, where it will be safe Now, if it were our manner to indulge in pro jects of invasion and schemes for lowering the status of France among European powers, we should. not for a moment question the justice of the complaint, that our journals were violating the conditions_ .pf. international friendship, and rioting in the wanton language of provocation, where the best interests of both nations demanded the reciprocations of sympathy. But where is the desire that France should be deposed from her place in the European family ? Where is the jealous feeling rankling through the bosoms of public men, which prompts a national envy, and gives an edge and a sinister meaning to re- proach ? But to suppose that our public writers and monitors should have been silent at all the flagitious acts of Louis NAPOLEON ; or at that avowed concentration of the " NAPOLEON ideas," which threatens the peace of Europe, is to pre-suppose the extinction of the press, and that the English character has lapsed into cowardice or madness. It is the French papers who delight to represent their modern idol as a ruthless invader, and the meditated march of his armies, as though it were to be some " irruption of the Goths." If we accept their representation, then it is a sufficient explanation of the aspect which our public sentiments assume, to say that we have not begun to be Imperial flatterers, nor ceased to be Englishmen who by no means despair of the fortunes of their country. -~-- THE present state of politics in Europe does not justify England in depending on any security short of her own prowess and power. In order that she may continue to herself, under the very complicated aspect of Continental affairs, the same. supremacy which she has hitherto, under the blessing of Providence, maintained, she must be watchful and on the qui vive. That we may ascertain whether she is able to uphold a con dition which has hitherto been hers, we must review her present relative forces, with those which she possessed in the past, and which gave her that priority that she must now be active We have been invaded before, as MARKIIAM very pleasingly and instruct inglv teaches in the books to preserve, which she has pub- lished more, not prevent it, as we gather Agricola, when navigation Av the history of India, than ca present age, with all the intensific scoverws of an exceedingly progressive and,scientific spirit' it is the more necessary to take care that out advancement keeps pace with the march of the dilY in which our destinies and.fortuns are cast• Thei Celtic and Cambrian may pride themselves upon . _ having still preserved in their 'fastnesses the Original race of the' ancient = Btiton,.. unmixe d with Roman, Saxon, or Norman blood ; but yet it , • . . _ would be by no means to Celt or Saxon, acceptable, that any foreign importation should supersede th e present race of tkese Isles.
