THE LIVERPOOL, RN NOPTHE AMES.- IIONDAY. MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. The Cotton Market on Saturday was quiet but steady,.and sales to the extent of 6,000 bales were made, of 'which 1,500 were taken on speculation 1 and for export. Prices maintained the rates noticed in our remarks of yesterday. The_ steam-ship Niagara - arrived here late last night, and according to her advices we learn that the trade in that city has been rather tame, and that the-news respecting the groWing crop is not much different from that already noticed. The Liverpoor 'Stock Exchange has not pre-' sented any new feature since our last notice. On Saturday the sales were limited, but prices were well supported. On . Saturday, the . demand for diticmint accommodition in Lombard-street and' at the Bank. of England was exceedingly active; at full rates. It was rumoured -that two mercantile firms were in -difficulties, but nothing definite transpired upon - the -4 subject', The prevailing stringency, however, will in the natural course of events, -produce much eirr . barrassmoit at' intervals; but the general prosperity of trade is remarkably well maintained, and allays any_ apprehension with regard to the - Stability of commercial credit. Saturday was a strict holiday at. -the Stock EXchange; as usual - on the _ Ist of -November, - when the - striking — 4 O the hilf-yearly balance at the Bank of England_ renders it necessary to close the transfer offices at that establishment. Very few connected with the- Stook Exchange, therefore, were at their usual places of, business, but among those who congre gated in the neighbourhood of the House Consols 4 were called 92 for the 6th inst. , and 9311 I f or December, which were yesterday's closing rates. The settlement of the English Stock Market is 'fixed for the 61.1 of November. . _ On Saturday, in the London Share Market there was little or no business.transacted, in consequence of the Stock Exchange being closed. We copy the following from the Mining Journal : Great dulness continues to pervade the Mining Market ; and mines as well as prices of sharps continue about the same, neither offering much to remark upon. November is generally an active month in mining-, and we hope to have more business to report ere long. Great Alfred Shares have continued durinz the meek at about 91 to 10; Great South Tolgus, 14 to 14i ; East Bassett shares have advanced to 60; South Frances. 360; Sortridge Consols, 2; :to 3 ex div ; Drake Walls, 11 to a ; Malland, 3s to 3s ; Rosewarne, 65 to 70 ; Condurrow, 150, and in demand, Wheal Mary Ann, 37* to 38; North Bassett, 36 to 37; West Basset, 32 ; Lady Bertha, 1 ; Great Hewas, 9s 6d to 10s . 6d ; South Cara Brea, 102 to 111 ; Trerawny, 25 ; Wheal Wrey, 7i; Par Consols, 22; South Caradon, 285 to 290 ; North Roshear, 85; Breenfloi , ed, Sit° 5 ; Alfred Consols, la to 161; Ludcott, li to 1'; Herodsfoot, 3, and enquired after. The, mine is now working to a profit, and the present prices of shares below the value of machinery. North Frances, 9 to 91 ; Porkellis. 10 ; Providence Mines, 65 to 64; West Caradon, 130 to 135. During the past week the imports of specie have been limited, and have been about 450,0001., viz., I.BOV-by the Africa, - 170,000 t. the — Arago, both from the United States ; and 100,0001. in silver from the. continent. The exports have also been moderate, viz , 16.126/, to the Peninsular by the Alhambra; 150,0001 to the Cape of Good Hope by the Candace, and 3,545/.10 the Continent through the London Custom House, making a total of 169,0711 In the same period the exports have been by the Union, for the Brazils, 21,0001.; the Can dace, for Africa, 150,000/ ; the Alhambra, for Cadiz, 15,5261., and Lisbon, 6001, making a total of 187,1261. As regards the state of trade we are informed : At Leeds, trade during the past week has been very dull, and the only demand experienced was for goods actually required to supply immediate wants. Sales of combing wools have not been extensive, but previous prices were fully supported. At Bradford therelwas no alteration to notice in the worsted trade ; prices ruled firm both for wools and yarns, the piece trade was dull, and prices very unsatisfactory. At Manchester the market had slightly improved, owing to the easier position of the Liverpool cotton market, and the favourable advices from Bombay and Calcutta have tended still further to improve the tone of the market. ' Only a moderate business was done in most kind of cloths. During the past week several foreign mining . companies have held meetings. At that of the South Australian Copper Corhpany it was resolved to register the undertaking, under the Limited Liability Act. Further resolutions to the following effect were also adopted—that the committee be authorised to take the necessary steps, and - to pre pare the Memorandum and Articles of the Associa tion, and be requested to communicate with the registered shareholders the nature of the plan they may propose as to the shares and capital ; that, in the alterations of the constitution of the company the interest of the preference shareholders shall be preserved; that the committee be required in the 1 interim to carry on the operations in the most eco nomical manner possible, and that the meeting he adjourned to Nov. 28. The shareholders of the Anglo-Californian Company at their meeting accepted the report, and it was stated that the total liabilities were about 14,000& It has been agreed by the proprietors of the Worthing Mining Company to place the concern under the Limited Liability Act of 1856. The directors of the Bruenta. Company have resolved to wind up the undertaking. A Glasgow firm renders the following report of the wool trade : The tone of the wool market here during the last month has been characterised by great briskness, and prices aro in favour of the seller. Scotch wools having been pretty well cleared out ; an expectation is generally enter tained that a still further advance will be got. For laid Highland especially, which is in large request, extreme prices are readily obtained. The following are the current quotations per stone of 241bs :—Laid Highland, 12s 6d to 13s 3d ; white do., 16s to 16s 6d ; laid cross, 14s; white do., 19s ; laid Cheviot, 16s ; do. do., washed, 18s to 21s; white do. unwashed, 22s 6d; do. do. washed, 295 to 32s ; Ist pick skin wools, 323 to 333; 2nd do. do., 2to 293 ; white Haslock , 24 s to 25s ; grey do., 21s to 22 8 3. 3 The returns of circulation of the Trish and Scotch banks for the four weeks ending the 27th of Sep tember, when added togethe r, g ive the follo wing as the average weekly circulat i o n of these banks during the past month, viz. : Average circulation c rc u a o n o o f f the e Irish Scotch b a banks..nk s . . - 4 £6,386,711,002,666 Average circulation during past month . .L 10,389,377 On comparing the above with the fixed issues of the several banks, as given in the Banlcing Almanac, the following appears to be the state of the circu lation The Irish banks are above their fixed issue.... £32.217 The Scotch banks are above their fixed issue.. 915,457 Total above the fixed issue £947,674 The amounts of gold and silver held at the head offices of the several banks during the past month have been as follows : Go.ld and silver held by the Irish banks £2,086,169 Gold and silver held b y the Scotch banks Total of gold and silver held . £3,721,097 The above statements complete the returns of the circulation in England, Scotland, anJ Ireland, for the month ending the 27th of September.

THE WEATHER, for two or three days last week, was thick, but yesterday was one of the most gloriously fine ever witnessed at this season of the year. It resembled more a soft mellow day in August, than one in November. There is every indication of a c ontinuance o f this w e ather, which farmers say is the moat propitious that has been ,witnessed for many years. AMERIC4. ARRIVAL OF THE NIAGARA, The British and North American Royal Mail Steam-ship Niagara, Captain Stone, arrived here yesterday afternoon. She brings 75 passengers, and 255,374 dollars in specie on freight. She reports meeting the Arabia, en rate to Boston. By this arrival we have three days' later intelli gence_ than that previous to hand. We append full particulars of all the leading events and topics of the day on the other side of the Atlantic. Respecting the Presidential election, we giv4 the. following items from the New York papers of the 21st ultimo. The' result of the elections in. the several states, for the next coogresi shows a gain of 42 members in ten States for the demo cratic party. If the elections yet to be held result as in 1854, when the opposition carried eVerything almost-theit own way, the House will stand i in the thirty-fifth congress, 121 democrats to 113 oppo sition. The prospect is that the democrats will secure a, working majority over all others. The State committees of the organizations composing the Union party in Pennsylvania, met in Phila delphia. on - the 17th ultimo, and agreed to an ileotoral ticket upon the basis proposed by .the Union State Committee, in their call for a Union State Convention, to be held at Harrisburg, on the 21st instant, to wit :—Twenty-six names in com mon, the twenty-seventh name to be different on the tickets voted for by the Fillmore and Fremont men respectively; the vote of the electors if chosen, to be cast pro-rata according to the rote given for the twenty-seventh name respectively. It was' also agreed that the electoral ticket to be voted for by the Fremont men should be headed by the name of John C. Fremont, and that to be voted for by the Fillmore men by the name of Millard Fillmore.. The republicans of Philadelphia held a meeting on the 20th ultimo, for the purpose of appointing delegates to the Fusion Convention, to be held in Harrisburg. A number of the friends of Mr. Fillmore attended the meeting, and, by their inflammatory speeches, for a time prevented the transaction of any business. A number of the members of the Keystone Club were present, and added to the confusion. After the Fillmore men and their coadjutors had retired, the meeting was reorganised and delegates appointed, who pledged themselves to be present at the convention. Whit field has been elected delegate to congress from Kansas territory by the pro-slavery party. His election 'was unanimous, as, by a preamble and resolution,which were adopted by the citizens of Lawrence, it appears the free state party regarded the election law as invalid and of no effect, and they consequently refused to vote. In the Charles ton, S.C., congressional district, Mr. Miles (American), has been elected. In the other dis tricts the members of the present congress have been re-elected. The triumph of the democrats in the election for municipal•officers of Newark, N. J., is attributed more to the influence of local issues than to the Presidential, question. For the first time in the history of that city, the people have determined to submit the controul of their muni cipal' affairs to the hands of the democrats. There was a grand demonstration of the supporters of Fremont, in the river counties, made at Pough keepsie. The weather was propitious, and the attendance very large, The number present at from twelve to fifteen thousand, with a large ad mixture of the fair sex. There was no end to the music, banners, flags, and other usual accompani ments. Unlike the democratic celebration at the same place, two weeks before, it was a bona fide mass meeting of the people of the river counties — not a meeting of New Yorkers imported up there. The people were addressed from the principal stall' by Senator Wilson, of Massachusetts, and from the -several other stands by Ex-Governor Ford, of Ohio ; Joe Blunt, of New York ; and others. It was said that rumours of a concerted meeting of Governors at Raleigh, N.C., had been confirmed. Governor Wise of Virginia, and Goiernor'AcTanist, of ' South Carolina, were in that city on the 15th ult., and Governor Johnston, of Georgia, and others were expected. The Raleigh Registei• says they came there for the ostensible purpose of attending the State Fair, but is apprehensive that they meet to concoct some treasonable schemes against the stability of the Union. Petersburgh (Va - .), has been the scene of great excitement. Some parties had erected a Fremont pole and banner, whereupon the Mayor straight way ordered out the military, convened the coun cil, and an order was passed to have the offensive pole cut down forthwith, all of which was ekecuted with due parade and gravity. It turns out, however, that the pole was put up by some wags by way of a joke. According to New York papers, it appears that there had been an arrest of two hundred and fifty Kansas emigrants, men, women, and children, near the NebrasKa line, by Deputy-Marshal Preston, aided by a large body of troops and six pieces of artillery. Notwithstanding the conductor of the emigrants had permission from Governor Geary to enter the territory with the usual arms of emi grants, they were placed under arrest, their pro perty examined and seized, and a guard placed over them, with instructions to the troops to shoot any who might attempt to escape. The miscellaneous advices from the United States is not of any importance. Mr. George Peabody had accepted an invitation to attend a reception given to him by the members of the Maryland Institute, at Baltimore. The affair will come off during the present month. There was a severe storm in New York on the the 17th ult. The steamer Connecticut, for Stonington, returned to New York with loss of one smoke stack. She was at one time in imminent danger of total wreck, but by throwing overboard part of her cargo, she was brought to anchor under Huntington's Island, and rode out the gale. Later intelligence from Cuba report that a for midable Spanish fleet was fitting out to enforce the claims of that country against Mexico, the previous report of the adjustment of this difficulty being erroneous. Spain was also about to send an army from Havanna to St Domingo. for the purpose of operating against the republican movements for the freedom of the Dominicans from the rule of the Hay tion black government. 5,000 muskets were ready to be sent to the Spanish Consul at St Domingo. A correspondent at Havana writes to us complain. ing of the inconveniences and overcharges to which merchant vessels entering that port are subject. The overcharges go for the benefit of the captain of the port and his subordinates. One of the inconveniences and annoyances he refers to is the anchoring of Spanish vessels of war in the channel, which necessitates the incurring of additional pilotage expenses. scarce, continues in good demand.

Thinking men are beginning to see that all they gain in malt by corruption, they lose in meal taxation.

Sl, CfIIIRCH STREET p_ortilPru iv" Laln MONDAY. NOVEJIBEt 3, 1.856 THE DAYS NEWS Is we anticipated, Mr. Jeffery is now a member of the Town Council. He takes the place of one *fivho has served the time-street Ward for fifteen years, and acted as Mayor of Liverpool: In another column we have alluded at length to this most important change, and earnestly do we hope:that it will be as beneficial in all the results which we have foreshadowed. According to what we hear, Mr. Lloyd will decline to serve as an alderman. Should this be so, he will prove what some of his friends ie is a patriot in the - true sense ofithe wora—serves his country and his kind simply because he deems it a duty to di - ) so. Earne'itly do we trust that Mr. Jeffery will bear this principle in mind, and that; when his fi rst year of office icpires, he will be able to say, " I have done my duty." Regarding him, as we do, a clever man, !vpd concurring in his general ideas, it *ill' be a pleasing duty if we can report satisfactorily - of his conduct as a councilman in November, 1857 ; for deny, that 1 we again repeat that, as journalists, we know no man, in politics or religion, save and except those who will devoto their time and attention' to the heneflt of the " good old town," and the community iheieof. Among the chief topics of the day, is the trial of Robson, the Crystal Palace forger, which took place on Saturday, at the Central Criminal Court, London. Robson, before the trial, pleaded guilty to three charges of larceny. Mr. Sergeant BaDen tine, who conducted the case for the prosecution, - on the more serious charge said :—Although the prisoner now at the bar had pleaded guilty to three indiaments involving him in penalties for having property cif his 'employers, he felt 1 tate to them the t his duty to s t charges, with a view of putting them and the court in possession of the anode by *hich the frauds had been committed .by the prisoner. In stating to them the history of these transact ions, it was necessary for him to refer to the general conduct of the prisoner. It appeared that the prisoner was a person of great intellect, and considerable powers of mind, alai possessed of an edlication far beyond his rank in life. He Otltel'ed the service of the Crystal Palace Company bireumstames of the preset as a clerk, at 11 per week. The prisoner was one of those persons who, from the intelligence he pos sessed, might, by honesty and straightforward con duct have risen to the highest position in this great commercial country. Unhappily, though possess ing these abilities and advantages, and entering into life which most people would have grasped at with avidity, he was not content with that, but sought to obtain wealth rapidly, and to obtain those ends which could only be obtained (in a peeson like him by honest industry) by a qUick leap. The prisoner now stood before them a felon on his own confession, and had to uncle trial for one of the gravest charges known to our laws. The prisoner, shortly after he was taken into the services of the company, was promoted. and his salary increased to 1001, and in a few months after he was promoted higher, to Mr. Fasson's office-registrar at a salary of 1501 per annum. That gentleman suffering from ill health. and finding the prisoner to be a man of intelligence and ability, and believing him also to be a man of integrity and honesty, left a great part of the management of his ,office to him, and in that inanner ha possessed facilities which he had applied in a manner to the injury of the com pany and his own ruin. After the bearing of several witnesses the judge, Mr. Justice Erle, and the ' , try returned a verdict s lordship then proceeded to sen ;oner. He said—You stand con victed of felony, and the enquiry on this occasion shows me that you have practised crime for a considerable period of time. You have practised it in a breach of that trust which was placed in you summed up. of guilt tence t by your employers. You have practised it so as to throw doubt and uncertainty on important mer cantile instruments, and you have obtained large sums of money by the course of crime you have so pursued. It is my duty to give a warping, by the sentence I shall pass on you, that the apparent course of prosperity derived from crime in reality leads to misery and destruction. For the forgery of which you stand convicted I order you to be transported for twenty years, and in respect to the (a Pole), is to have the Polish estates of his family restored to him again, for his services to the Czar in the late war.

So much for present impressions. • s It is said that nine forts have been constructed around Verona, which is at , present one_ of the strongest fortresses in the Austrian empire. The succeds of the Municipal Reformers of the Limn street and . Everton Wards will, we trust, be received as a salutary lesson. It would be peurile to , call such a movement an ovation. It was a whole triumph, or, as Mr. J. R. JEFFERY well observed, when addressing the triumphant Eke: " a great moral victory." The Reformers only desired to carry their Wards, and they did conquer in both If we had lost one, gaining the other would have served, as a great demonstration. tut, rejecting two prodigal _representatives, despite all that money and intimidation could do, was a magnificent result to attain. 0 shows what the Reformers and their Independent Press can do—what the Burgesses have lost by not being fearlessly represented by their public journals. The paltry assumption of Toryism, which is so rife in Liverpool, would never have reached the height it has in the Town Council, and in the Parliamentary representation of the Borough, if there had not been a frightful amount of toadyism going on among our artful cotemporaries. We are indebted" to the time-serving advocacy of those who crave the support of the Reformers, for all that has taken place in the Borough for the last fifteen years, and- the-severity of the struggle they had to make on Saturday to establish a just principle of representation, and to rdstore prudence and integrity to the Council. Our respected Tory cotemporaries have laboured hard to keep up their falling house. The vulgar and depraved " Con "'seivative" press—the Carlton will pardon us for using this quotation—has, in the excess of its licentiousness and gross plebianism, killed the sick man, and strangled the remaining respect ability of its generous patron's representatives. We feel so bitterly the base use to which type and paper have been put of late in this good old English town, that we will • pass over in silence the service the " Conservative" Press has done to the cause cue advocate. Our cause has triumphed. Reason' has won a signal victory over political affectation; conven tional twaddle, and intolerable corruption. The Reformers behaved gloriously. They might have polledfully one hundred more votes in both the con tested Wards. They have, however, set the other Wards an example which they will be called on to follow next year. To keep off a Borough Rate, to cut down local taxation in every direction, and to save the Town Dues, we must remodel the Council. We must break down the monopoly of the Cor• ruptioniste. Same limit must lie found for the Corporate expenditure. The confiding multitude must not be cajoled into submitting to gas monopolies, water schemes, nor incomprehensible improvement projects. All this political insanity must be laid aside for plain common sense—for COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE The news under this head does not possess much importance, its character being pretty much the same as that received by the last mail. In the absence of further European news, the money market in New York was quiet. The last return of the New York Bank was regarded with favour. It showed a decrease of loans and discounts, 1,218,127 dollars ; increase of specie, 464,106 dolslar ; decrease of undrawn deposits, 656.817 dolslars ; decrease in circulation, 52,204 dollars. Short loans were negotiated at seven per cent, and commercial paper was freely discounted at from Bto 10 per cent. The amount of businesa doing in the stock market was not large, and prices had undergone but little change. With fair demand for exchange on London, drawers were not anxious to operate, and the quotations stood firm at 1091 to 1091. The cotton market in New York was dull, owing to a fall in prices in the Southern market, and the tenor of the last news from Europe, and prices had, in consequence, declined is per lb. Holders had, however, shown no disposition to press sales. The total decrease in the exports this year are set down at 77,000 bales, and to Great Britain 80,000 bales. The fl3llr market had been unsettled, and priers during the week had fluctuated from 15e to 20c,., leaving off at a decline of 5c to 10c per bushel. We subjoin the usual details of the NEW YORK MARKETS. MONEY AND STOCKS. Our stock market since our last advices of the 14th inst. has not been animated, if we except three or four of the leading railroad shares, which continue to be the object of a lively speculation. The fluctuations have been unimpor. tant, but the tone is rather better than at the close of last week. The question of the possibility of a suspension of specie payments by the Bank of France, is variously com mented upon. It has caused a decline on the French exchange, and occasions ar uncertainty and timidity, owing to the influence such a measure may exercise upon the movement of specie from this country, which are detri• mental to our stock market assuming more firmness. The same absence of demand for investment of stocks, such as City, County, and Railroad B on d s, cont i nues to b e experienced ; in this state of thi ngs , our quotat i ons f or this class of securities must necessarily often be nominal. There was a good demand for Illinois Central for foreign account; they rose 1 per cent. Money, without being BREADSIUITS.
