NAVIGATION. j4IANIPULATIIN v. NAUTICAL ASTRONOMY, GREAT CIRCLE SAILING, &c., &c. TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN TIMES. Sir,—ln a town like Liverpool,—if any such yetr can dam—despite all the physical disadvantages jests= pare:le from its outward and inward approaches by water, se notoriously pre-eminent for the magnitude and, performance of its shipping, — the efficiency of its s ea men . —the talent of the commanders and officers engaged in the merchant service —and for the enterprising spirit of its merchants and ship owners, any new eye`xm of Navi gation, propounded by what authority scierer, or any im provement in Ike old system, is sure to attract at'ention, and meet with a dispassionate consideration at. the hands nfthose whose interests are involved. No . one will deny that the various sciences have tender 'one a complete revolution, so to speak, within the past twenty years. For instance, take the science of 'Cireenis wry, which 'in point of utility may rack asohiefrand wit ness with amazement the changes which it has undergone, and the purposes for which it hss been used within the limited period men'ioned. It it mot many years since, as I can well remember, that my text hook at school taught me " that element this and element tha`," were simple 'bodies, which are at the present day proved clearly to 'be, not elementary, -but compound bodies, capable of being, 'with the greatest facility, resolved into their compound , ' ingredients. The -science of astronomy, leo sever, second to none in point of sublimity, and, perhaps, I may add, in point of utility, cannot boast of any great improvement at the hurtle. of our Modern Astronomers -since the days of the ancient Egyptians or Cha'&es. Sia,ter and motion seem to entirely engrose all the mental energy of the present day. Heedless of those un erring laws that regulate and guide the latter, with special reference to those celestial orbs, whose motions I do not here pause to inquire whether they or we move {this beisg immaterial to my purpose), in the -firmament are so closely indented, and so irrtima'ely assoeiated with `The beautiful science of practical navigation, that to ad -locate a discontinuance of their-ass were-saicidal to the _primary cause of the admired greatness of this-csentry. I am not a merchant, deriving wealth, ease, and dig nity, from traffic in the rich and rare pro luetions of dis - taut foreign climes, by 'nears of the present system of navigation : I am not an astronomer; neither does my presumption soar so high as to permit me to imagine my self a mathematician of even the shallowest water in the presence of our luminaries of the day, whose memories shall never die. Granting you this much, M.:. Editor, please allow me to arrogate to myself a " small sensation" of ocenesoresense Now to business : I regret that what is about to follow will nit square with your idea, as embodied in pur paper of the 11th May las'. A long leader in that number of your paper announces, t) us little 'ens a new system of navigation-einem .scripta ,maneiy—which may be used at any period, and for any purpose. I admit that the duties of as Editor are arduone, and that they are important no one will deny. He writes not for himself; he writes for the information of the mass of his readers : to their coffee in the morning he supplies an epitomised or summary account of all the transactions, whether as to church, state, or crime, &c., of the day pre cedirg. This - is. perfectly legitimate; but an Editor does not confine hims€-If to these provinces. He has another and a more grave or onerous duty to perform : hie readers look up to him as a shining light placed upon an immin ence far their guidance ; hence arise his responsibility, the necessity of caution in his leaders, intended for the edification not only of the present generation, but of generations vet unborn. I am not aware that Elitors claim infallibility to themselves and for a very good reason, their humble readers will not coneecle this point. They are like other fre'l mortals liable to be imposed upon by plausibility and specious a.gument. I cannot boast of a -very retentive metnory , nevertheless I have a faint recollection of a talented . cOteruporary of your's in Liverpoo`,not many years by-gone, being mule the dupe of a Chinaman. What new intelligence think you the Editor of the, Journal communicated to na from the celestial city ? Greenwich date established by meant of a lunar dis tance and the nautical airnanack!! Novel information for the nautical community of Eng:and ; but I regret to say that the talented Editor of the journal, does not stand singular in this respect. lam about to couple no less a character than your " noble self" with him. I am gat a red-hot radical reformer, at the same time. I do , not deny that there exist many grievances demanding refornr,tion, which would be glad to see effected politically ; but this point I leave in the hands of legislators, as falling immediately wi , hin their province. I come now-to the sciences which are daily being rendered more and mole subservient to the commercial purpos:s of -this great o oantry, regulated, guided, and applied thereto thr , oseh the.iugtrumentality of the human mind. The mind--its flights and vagaries in the regions of Trobibilities, know no chains of slavery. It is unfettered in the bosom of the captive slave, the peasant, the peer, ifrPonve tCorA . . conviction, and sometimes confusion, into the hearts Aheir too credulous readers. Now for Navigation by Manipttlatioe, as introduced by Wr. Sean:, to the nautical intelligence of Liverpool, whose views are endorsed by yourself in the paper already specifi?.d. I woald have been disnosed to pay no attention to this salsvlangled_sys'em of2N-.v vier, we - e it not that I cannot take ua a daily paper for the purpose of information, without being confronted with ,the title, "Navigation, Groat Circle Sailing, &e.," by Mr. Saxhy. He must be a most extraordinary character. His antecedents are 'un known to myself, an .I believe, to the m)jarity of the nautical profession ; to their shame, be it told, for he tells us. through no less a medium than the Shipping and liefercanlile-Cazette,.of the r fith alt., that be has had much experience ; ia the them and practice of modern, as well as early, navigation. This salon of all ages quite bothers me. I have not had an opportunity of devoting much attention to the science of navigation, my sailings having been limited to two or three trips hither to. Glasgow. It need not, how ever, happen necessarily that an individual must be a bona fide sailor ; to enable him to judge as to the properties of a sphere or lines drawn thereupon. In your issue of the 11th May last. you gave a great lift to Mr. filaxby's new system of navigation. N doubt a great deal of the greatness of our dearly beloved country is attributable to the science of navigation. Con sequentlg, any party, how humble ,soever the exertion, endeavoating to simplify the science, ought not to be lightly es.teemcd. But, Me. Editor, in your laudable desire to encourage merit, you will not, with impunity, be allowed to lose sight of discretion. You appear to have -been filled with all admiration of Mr. SaxWa "N.ivigation,by Mani pulation." Let us condes cend to grapple with facts, stubborn• though they be. May not facts be represented by - figures as well as by lines, whether ;linear or curved? Mr. Saxby does not seem to believethis doctrine, but I challenge him to deny .it. By some stran_ge fatality, he has succeeded in making, as it were, a willing convert of yourself; and having so far succeeded in getting yon to endorse his sentiments, he unship you, after having used you is a stepping-stoce. and fieds his coarse to the Editor of the Shiprizaw and .Mercantile Gazette, kwilich . he appears to consider a in , re befitting field than your -columns for the campaign. fide Gazette of the Bth uit., but as I do not choose to plunge into media., - res let me hive A ward or two with Mr. 83xby as I find him figuring in your pages, ere I follow _him to the metropolis. It would appear that be has conceived a new idea as to the science of navigation without caleulation, and, non ,riz.://r/as mus nasceur, b , rought forth a something which, no doubt, after mature deliberatioo, he bas been grac iously pleased to honour with the signifiCant title of Sphereograph. Sphereography, Cosmography, as well as .steno9raphy Jc., wh:ch may sc-und classically musical in the cbane ears of reporters and editors,; but we—l beg pardon- 7 I mean only myself, a desciple of the lower school, cannot pretend to comprehend. This, howeve-, I must set down as cause of regret as affecting myself alone ; nor may I blame those whose refined tastes and cultiatated minds render them .fi t subjects for admission iLto the enellantiug fairy fields of scien tific sublimity. But, Mr% Editor, 'bad Mr. Saxby left me siu3nlar, .to ,clod on in my humble way , „ I wou ld not thus be after troubling yon. Bit excuse me, you know not only as..weli, but better than I, that the great ness of Liverpool is :to be ascribed, not to sophistry, neither to plausibility, - but to facts and figures. Actual practical rentilts, but not the romantic vag avi,s of unfettered imagination regaling itself in the delectable regions of theories ' and, butterfly-like, charmed with momentary phantoms lighter than air, constitute the staniard by which the commercial and intelligent portion of the community of this town regulate their every day transactions This fact apparently annoys Saxby. He has introduced a new system of navigation; but your ship-owners and merchants are too ignorant to com prehend and appreciate it. Your shir-masters are inca pable of either understanling or practising it ; and all the rest of your community are callously indiffs.rent about it. Therefore, in the estimation of Mr. Saxby, you are alto gether a set of "muffs"—nothing but a parcel of humbugs— Or in g for nothing WO corn and cotton ; and to yolc last, ins shame it will stand recorded against yo a, that you are about to allow Mr. Swill to depart fro! a amongst you *laws et penates," unheeded a,nd unrewarded, to disp'ay his miraculous Sphereograph to intelligence of a higher order ; at whose hards he is certain of honour and im mortal fame. Were it not desirable, Mr. Editor, me yon submit to -such a public loss and disgrace, to take the trouble to in attire a little further into this oracul Ar Sphereograph ? - You have a Local Marine• Beard—you have got competent examiners, holding wtekfy exeminati ens, for the'parpose of certifying as to the ability of your commanders in the merchant service, with special regard to their knowledge of nautical astronemy, , calcalation, ligarithens, &c. Why all this bother, (?) for Mr. Sax4y '„fella you that - not only all the losses but double ate losses at sea occur in the , hands of competent or passed masters! !" Mr. Saxby is very inveterate rigainst this unfortunate class of talented gentlemen. His relentless ire dees not cease when they leave Liverpool: deamonelike it haunts them until -same mis her befalls them. This is sacredly chronicled in the arch ives of the repository of novel navigation and 'patents, in Strend-street ; 'for the similar purpose of imparting the semblance of truth to alleg ttiona mate/and. Don't mistake my meani .sg, Mr. Editor, fer'l have no desire to mislead your readers. But I desire - Mr. Saxby to explain to me the logic, 'sy means of which he saddles, not only all the catastroph es at sea, but -double those, on the shoulders-of 1 - Certificated Masters " I can myself readily account for the animous conveyed in this palpably illogical language, and simply by stating that he feels grieved because the Liverpool captains are too shrewd to be gulled by sophistry, and therefore he is about to try his hand upon the natives of a more southern and benignent clime; whenlishall be glad to hear or his enjoying the full fruition due to his abiltiy so unjustly denied to him in contemptible Liverpool. Navigation without calculation by means of a sphereo grapti maew; but stercograehle projection is not new to a host of your readers, agansus igitur -rem pingne Mike-rm. Though "I would not be the first the new to try, Nor yet the last the old to lay aside:" 25,000 miles, English, reduced to a ten inch scale, or 30.0 leg of , Coo miles, geographical, each, and the 60th part of the latter required to be ascertained by means of a diagonal scale of equal parts, of, say 10 inches, for the purpose of faciliting calculation or comparison. 360Jeg., give .36dege or 2,160 geographicel miles to the linear inch, the 60th part of one of which will be a second of longitude. You may safely and fearlessly ball this multuns in parvo ; but this is what we are required to cr dit by Mr. Saxby without figures. This may suit the fine fingers and aquiline eye of Mr. Saxby himself. But I fear that the hands of the generality of sailors would not like to undertake the arduous task. But let us see what the following advertisement, in your columns, will bring to our aid : " Wanted, immediately, a number of commanders to take charge of large ships taken up by government, to con vey troops, stores, &e., to India. To prevent unnecessary trouble, no one holding a certificate of competency need apply, their having passed an examination being held as a decided disqualification. Au intimate acquaintance, with Mr. Saxby's rule of thumb system of trabereographic navigation held as a sine qua non, and parties professing the greatest amount of ignorance as to loaarithims and figures in general, will, celeris paribus, have due pre ference. Application, by letter, to be made to the undersigned." I leave you now, Mr. Editor, to consider—or rather to re-consider--this subject, and your remarks thereunto. As lam going to London with Mr. Saxby to spend a few days, and should the pressure of business permit you to come up, please inquire for me at 54, Gracechurch-street. I shall be extremely happy to see you, and I am sure that Mr. S, will receive you with cordiality. I need scarcely say bow much pleasure your presence in the Metropolis will afford to your respected cotemporary —the Editor of the Shipping and Mercantile Gazette. Mr. S. will, of course, favourably introduce you. The science of navigation is sure to be the leading top's of eon versation, after the usual formalities, the state of the weather, &e., are disposed of. I know that you are net a sailor—that you will not care much about this briney subject. You would much rather hear the subject of the Liverpool dock dues, trade and commerce, law, telegraphic and rural intelligence, church and state, the Indian revolt, &c., &c., topics familiar to you as household words. But never mind, all that you have got to do is not to look sheepish, nor say too much ; and if you ac; upon this advice, they will never discover that you are not a bona 4de R N. They have already, as I have hinted above, nee a " confab" on this important subject of praetic al navigation. They promise to continue to discuss the subject until the nation be thoroughly enlightened. They have introduced the subject with " great circle sailing." But, unfortunately, my time, at present, will not permit me to comment upon their lucubration 3 ; besides, it is possible that I have already trespassed too far upon your goodness, for which pardon me. But if you just dro i p_rol_a or so, Art i vpi t rzb , • give a z sTEtediTnirlaWs upon the subject, with which you can amuse yourself in the train.—Meaatime, I remit', sir, A, M. D. INCOME TAX, &c. (LONDON.) —There has been published a return specifying (among other things) the tot4l amount of income tax, laud tax, and assessed taxes fur the city of London, during the years ending the 5-h April, 1856, and the sth April, 1857. The proceeds of the various taxes are as follows : —lncome tax 1855, 1860,408 12s 10d ; 1856, 4862,578 14s 2d ; land tax, 1855, 151,820 12s 9i ; 1856, X 51,501 5s Id ; assrased taxes,• 1855, 446,821 17s 10d; 1856, L 47,418 63 Bd. The larg'st allowances re ceived by indiiidual collectors for collection of income tax, are £1.750 ani 11,020, both of whom are employed in other duties. The smallest is 426. HORRIBLE ACCIDENT BY MACHINERT.-1 :very shock ing and fatal accident occurred at the saw mills, Thames Bank, on Friday, by which one of the foremen, named Thomas Thompson, lost his life under very dreadful cir cumstances. The unfortunate man was engaged in his ordinary business at the mills, when by some means his arms were drawn into the machinery, by which they were literally torn from his body. The poor fellow was conveyed to St. George's Hospital, Hyde Park-corner, but so dreadful were the injuries ha received that no medical skill could avail, and after great suffering he expired. The deceased has left a widow and several prying children, but -Me s srs. Pelly, the proprietors of the establishment, will do some thing for the unfortunate family. A COUNTY CONSTABLE NIPPED —Rumour tells the following story :—The mwly appointed police at Chittle hampton and its neighbourhood aro like the rest of their fraternity in the county, wide awake in the discharge of their duties. One of these officials, it is said, met the other night a poor rustic with a bag b erne upon his s houHer. The policeman, in a loud tone of voice began—Where are you going to ? Ot's that to yu. Where did you come from ? Shan't tell'e. You are too impudent ; but I must* know what your bag contains. What have you got there ? Shan't satisfi'e. Then I must take away your b3g ; but if you will let me feel what you have there it will satisfy me. That thee mayst do, said the rustic, put thee hand in than, cum make haste. In goes the hand of the detective, no sooner in than out, for the bag contained a full-grown badger, whose carnivorous propensities instantly caused it to fasten on the top of three or the official's fingers, with the view of having a feast.—Plymouth Journal. THE COLLIERY EXPLOSION NEAR ASHTON-UNDER LYNE.—Up to' Sunday night thirty-one bodies had been recovered from the pit, and as eight persons were still missing, the estimated number of lives lost is now increased to 39. There are still 40 men constantly engaged in exploring the mine, and it was thought probable that the whole of the bodies would be recovered in the course of yesterday. The greatest precautions are necessary to avoid the :after-damp, but there is otherwise not much obstruction. It is now thought that the explosion took place almost at the ex`remity of the workings. Ever since the Moment of the explosion, the ground near the pit has been thronged by bnudred3 of people. There have been sad assemblages of auxins inquirers and of mourning relatives, and the scene has ken one of distressing excite ment. Nothing is yet mentioned to give a clue to the cause of the explosion. A number of lamps have been rou n d, bat all of them unopened. The shaft was sunk in 1823, but -the mine had then been worked for 30 years from one of the oth er shaft,. To create a secretary of state for Indian affairs is a suggestion which we (Leader) think the Rouse of Conmvons could cot for a moment entertain, since it is a propo3al which would invest a corrupt cabinet with a power of despotic patronage sufficient to taint every source of legis lation. The salaries at the disposal of the premier world suffice to secure him—so long as politicians are to be bought and srild—an amount of infleence which could be tolerated in no constitutional country. Of what use destroying Old Sarum if corruption is to riot in Bengal ? A hundred golden prizes would be entrusted to the premier of the day, and this we conceive is not a desirable result. Yet there must be a responsibility, there must be patronage, and it appears to many who have studied the exigencies of our Indian empire, that the Board of Control might be merged in a eonrt similar in constitution to that in Leadeoball- street, bat appointed by parliament, and retiring by rotation. An idea of this kind should be taken for what it is worth; is obvious that the existing system his failed, THE NO 7 LITHERN TIMES.---LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 5, 1857. MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. LIVERPOOL, Tuesday Evening. The demand for Cotton has become very limited, and to-day the sales'were less than on any day for several years past, only amounting to 1,509 'hales, all to the trade. Prices however, have not varied, and the full currency of Friday last is paid. The Liverpool Share Market has been dull to day, but, with one or two exceptions, prices were fully maintained. The day's transactions are re ported as follows:—Blackburn, 713 ; Caledonian, 384,1,39, 388, East Lancashire, 96! -- ; Great Western, 634, 63, 624; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 1001 4, ; London and North Western, 1021; North Eastern, 2311 ' , 4, ; Midland, 831 ; York Capital stock, 381; Great Western of Canada; 211, -A, ; Liverpool and London Fire and Life, BA. The following were the closing prices : Blackburn, 7y. 8; Chester and Birkenhead, 661 674; Caledonian, 38 11-16, 38 13-16; Chester and Holy head, 18, 184 ; Eastern Counties, 114, 11 4 ; East Lancashire, 961, 964 ; Do. 91. shares, 4, 9-16 p ; Great Northern, 244, 241; Great Western, 624, 621 ; Lancashire and Yorkshire Stock, 1004, 1004; Do. 91. shares,,-",, 1 p; Liverpool, Crosby, and Southport, 194, 194 ; London and North Western Stock, 1024. 1.024 ; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire, 434, xd 434 ; Midland Stock, 834, 84; North British, 11 7-16, 114; North Staffordshire, 4i, xd 44 d ; North Eastern—Berwick, 231 231: York and North Midland, 381 381; Leeds Capital : Stock, 224, 224 ; South Eastern and Dover, 224, 2.24 .

Canada, 214, 212; Ditto New Shares, 4, 4 p ; Great Luxembourg, 74, 74; Grand Trunk of Canada, 138, 131. The Money Market was more active to-day, in consequence of it being " settling day ;" which, by-the-bye, has passed off without any defalcations of an extraordinary character. The demand for money has increased, both at the Bank of England and in the private Discount Houses, where the hills presented for discount throughout the day have been more numerous than for a long time past. In addition to this, arrangements for the settlement at the Stock Exchange, and the usual demands from the agricultural districts pending the harvest operations, have contributed to aug ment the pressure; but it is imagined that in the course of a few days some relief will be experienced, more especially as there is generally less activity in the bullion market for a short time subsequent to the departure of the steamers for the East Indies. At present there is some ground for apprehending an advance in the rate of discount, but this arises solely from the extensive shipments of silver. The increased inquiry for discount accommodation must have been expected, but no one was prepared for such an extraordinary advance in the rates for bills drawn on the Presidencies, and, as a natural consequence, this has stimulated the drain of specie to the various ports of the Presidencies. Since Saturday upwards of half a million sterling has arrived from Australia, Mexico, and America, and even a larger amount is hourly expected from the Antipodes, so that it is presumed the deficiency in the Bank's stock of bullion will soon be made up; and that there will be a temporary cessation of the withdrawal from the Bank vaults. The symptoms of renewed stringency in the Money Market, and the effiux of gold and silver, assists the operators for a fall in speculative securities, but the Indian insurrection exercises a paramount influence, and all other considerations, whether of a commercial or finan cial character, appear to have lost their usual weight amongst tho3e who are engaged in such transactions. To-day the Market for the Public Funds and Securities, was rather dull and heavy, and Consols closed at 904 to 904; Exche quer Bills 4 dis. to pm., and the New Three Per Cents. 904 to 901. In the London Railway Share Market to-ley there was very little business done. but. nripes were • pretty well maintained . the following were the closing quotations :—Caledonian, 74, 771 ; Eastern Counties, llf, Ea - st Lancashire, 961, 974 ; Great Northern, 94, 984; Do. A. , 92, 93; Great Western, 624, 63; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 1001, 1009 ; Leeds Northern, 44, 441; London and North Western, 1022, 102 - ; London and South Western, 98} ; Manchester, Sheffield, and Linp-I..titre, 431 ; Midland Stock, 83&, 831; North British, 464; South Eastern and Dover, 741; York, Newcastle, and Berwick, 941 95i ; York and North Midland, 761, 771; Grand Trunks, 12, 124; Great Western of Canada, 211, 211 ; Oxford, Worcester, &c , 34, 35. After official hours the business done was at the following prices : Caledonian, 794, 79k; Eastern Counties, 111 14 ; East Lancashire, 96L 94; Great Northern, 974, 984 ; Ditto A, 92, 94; Lancashire and York shire, 1001, 100 d; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire, 431 ;• North British, 46i ; South Eastern and Dover, 74k, 744; York, Newcastle, and Berwick, 941 95k; York and North Midland, 76k, 771. The Manchester Market was quiet, but firm to day. Producers were more willing to accept last week's prices, but obtained them slowly. During the last few days the Grain trade has been devoid of all activity. Wheat and Flour selling slowly and at slightly lower rates, and Indian Corn meeting a very limited inquiry at barely Friday's prices. With a continued Foreign demand, however, Oats hav,e fully maintained previous quotations. Oatmeal is reported steady; Egyptian Beans and Barley both without change. The weather continues fine. To-day's market was fairly attended by local and country buyers, but the business •in Wheat was of very limited extent, and at a decline of 2d from the currency of Fri day, making 3d per 70 lbs. on the week. Flour : The demand was quite of a retail character, and prices were reduced 6d per sack and barrel. Oats quiet, but firm, at previous rates. Oatmeal had a moderate inquiry, at Friday's prices. Egyptian Beans and Barley both slow, and unaltered in value. Indian Corn : Mixed and Yerow met a restricted sale at a reduction of 6d to 9d per qr. ; White, from extreme scarcity, obtained former quotations. The accounts we have this week received from the various Foreign Cc rn Markets have the one tendency. All agree that the Wheat crop will be of superior quality, and in many cases, considerably over an average in quality and the value of Wheat declines daily. The usual half-yearly meeting of the Berlin Water Works Company was held yesterday, Mr. Goschen in the chair. The report was on the whole satisfactory, and stated that the lest half year had been considerably more productive than the preceding one, the increase of rates for water supply having been 700/, making the annual revenue about 5,0001. The expenditure was still in excess, but it was hoped that in a year or two a dividend would be forthcoming. The accounts showed about 17,0001. in favour of the company on capital account. The following are the latest quotations of Foreign Exchanges :—Amsterdam, short, 11 16k to 11. 17; do. three months, 11 181 to 11 191: Rot terdam, do., 11 186 to 11 191 ; Antwerp, do , 25 30 to 25 37k ; Brussele, ditto, 25 30 to 25 371; Hamburg, do., 13 81 to 13 8-.1; Paris, short, 25 20 to 25 25 ; do., three months, 25 578 to 25 021; Marseilles, do., 25 60 to 25 65 ; Frankfort, do., 1194 to 1191 Vienna, do., 10 29 to 10 32 ; Trieste, do , 10 30 to 10 32; St. Petersburg, do., 361 to 362; Madrid do., 461 to 49. _ _ _ The - London Wool Sales continue to be well attedded, and foreign buyers are still taking more Iztan an average supply of wool. Fine Port Philip is fully 2d. per lb. higher than at the previous sales. Messrs. Jalomb have disposed of about 400 bales. It it; stated that the East India Company have approved the plans of the Eastern Bengal Railway Company, and that a guarantee of 5 per cent. has been granted on their capital of 1,000,0001. in the same manner as the other lines. The route runs from Calcutta through the Delta of the Ganges towards Deeca, and passes in the midst of rich and extremely populous districts. The exact amount of specie shipped by the Peninsular and Oriental steamer Ripon is 1,012.9631., of which 843,14151. is for iudia, and 169,5184 for China and the Straits. Nearly the whole of it is silver, the gold being only 5,3801. The steamer Labuan has arrived in the Downs, from Hong Kong, with 275,400 lbs tea on freight. A telegraphic despatch, dated St. Petersburg, Saturday, quotes the exchange on London again somewhat lower—viz ,at 37 1 I. This rate would certainly allow of remittances of gold to this side, but it is still found very difficult to obtain gold from the government establishments. The authorities nominally permit the exportation of the precious metal, but throw every obstacle in the way of its collection. The price of Tallow was quoted 182 ro. on the spot, 78 for delivery in Anguat, and 176 ro. for September. The quantity of Tallow shipped this season up to date was 9,804 casks. From Paris we have the official announcement that M. Andouillet, of the office of the Minister of Finance, has been definitively appointed deputy governor of the Bank of France. The imports of specie and bullion announced yesterday were very heavy, forming a total of about .713,8001., and comprising 280,0001. by the Arabia, from New York, and 433,8001. by the Parana, from the West Indies and Mexico. Of the amount by the Arabia, the entire, with' the exception of about 20,4001., is on English account. Of that by the Parana, about 327,4001. is in silver, and 106,4001. in gold. In cluding the 171,900/. in Australian gold brought by the Lightning and Scatnander (the arrival of which was announced on Saturday), the total amount of newly-imported specie and bullion is no less than 885,000/. The whole of this is expected to be sent away, the silver to the East, and the gold to the Continent, to buy more silver for that destination. Indeed, the 131,400/. in gold, ex the Lightning, has already been sold for the Continent, with the exception of a sum of about 5,000/., which was sent into the Bank, the parties into whose hands it came being apparently ignorant that a better price could be got for it from the Con tinenal buyers. These supplies will at least tend to check the drain upon the Bank ; but a sum of 10,000/ in gold is known to have been taken from that establishment yesterday for exportation to the Continent. The specie and bullion ex the steamer Parana are expected to be delivered in about a week. A sum of 8,000/, in Russian half imperials, has arrived from St. Petersburg, and will be sent to the Continent in payment for silver. The steamer Sultan has also brought 3,9871 in specie from the Peninsula. On Saturday the steamer Rhine arrived in the Thames from Boulogne, with 87 oases of silver, and the Belgium, from Ostend, with 14 cases These remittances represent a total value of about 100,0001., and are understood to have been com prised in the freight of the Ripon, the particulars of which have already been published. It frequently happens that when the pressure incidental to the remittances by each Eastern steamer has subsided there is a temporary flatness in the silver market, and this is to some extent the case now. Transactions took place yesterday in bar silver at ss. 1. and ss. 2d. per ounce standard, but the former is now the more general quotation. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET.—AuousT 4.

Having a small attendance of buyers at our Corn Exchange this morning, the trade in Wheat ruled slow at a further decline of 23 per 70 lbs on the reduced rates of Friday. Flour was but little inquired for, and prices the turn in favour of buyers. In Barley, Beans, and Pease, we notice little alteration. Oats and Oatmeal are also without change. A moderate coufitry demand was experienced for Indian corn, which holders met more freely, and the value may be quoted 3d to 6d lower.

THE COTTON CROP. SOUTH CAROLINA. An exchange reports thus:—" Now that the wheat harvest is about ended, and a correct statement can be made of the crop, we are gratified to be able to corro borate all the bright prophecies which have been made with regard to its abundance. From almost every quarter of our land we hear the grateful cry of abundant wheat crops. In Laurens district our farmers have never gathered into - their granaries a greater abundance or finer Quality of wheat. Corn is still backward, hut generally looks healthy. Oats are generally good. Cotton is unpromising." TENNESSEE. The wheat harvest is nearly finished, and is excellent in the extent and quality of the yield. Corn promises well, though somewhat backward, but the fruit crop looks bad. GZORCIII. Advices from this State report very favourably for wheat and oats, and more encouragingly than formerly for corn and cotton. SOUTH• WESTERN STATES. The Mobile Register, of June 30, says :—" We give this morning copious extracts from the papers of this State, and the portions of Mississippi contiguous to the Mobile and Ohio railroad, about the crops of cotton, corn, and wheat. We have gathered and compared all the,informa don within our reach on this subject, and our conclusions have not been hastily formed. We believe the crop of ,wheat will exceed this year the yield for many years past. The crop of corn will be an average one everywhere, and in many places more than average one. The crop of cotton, although partially recovering from the severe disasters through which it has passed during the spring and early summer, can never regain what it has lost in the lateness of the season, bat must fall short of its legitimate production one-sixth. In other words, one sixth less will be gathered from the land planted than would have been if all things had been ordinarily favourable." In Louisana, the corn and sugar cane crops are thriving remarkably, and the prevalent anticipation is that the yield will be larger than usual. ALABAMA. Morgan County: Cotton crop is bad, so far; many planters think the crop will fall very far short of a common c►op, Our crops of Indian corn, wheat, and oats, are very excellent, but they never form an important part of our trade. We, for the most part, buy our flour from abroad, and corn and oats are never offered in market here, unless when they are brought here for sale, and that from other places. Lawrence County : The crop of wheat and oats in this section of country never were better—perhaps the largest crops ever made. Corn crops, up to this time, promise well. The cotton crop is very backward and small for the season, and not by any means promising. Butler County : Wheat and oat crop good. Corn medium. Cotton rather a gloomy prospect ; much, how ever, depends, in this crop, on the latter part of Summer and Fall, and these months may change it very much. ILLINOIS. De Kalb County : Tne tame grass was injured by Winter freezing. Wheat and corn are very backward, but are now growing, and look well. Potatoes promise a very good crop. Brown County : There is some surplus wheat in this county, from last year's crop not much surplus corn. The wheat crop of the present year will, it is thought, be an average one. The other crops are fair, but have not been worked enough, on account of rain. NEW YO' K, JULY 21. At Mobile 17th, "middling was 141 c to 141 c, market excited." Growing Crop: The accounts from Southern Mississippi and Louisiana continues to be, as last advised, favourable, but from Texas, Northern Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina, they are very unfavourable. Owing cu uota nights the srana is very defective, there being many fields in Georgia and Alabama where the weed is 'no larger than it was two weeks after it came up.
